Good morning and welcome to Bunchy and a Report early edition. I am your host, Evita. Reminder that all the stories I cover here will be featured on Bunchyandareport.com if you want to read some more. And we have a lot to cover today. First, a coup in the White House. Joe Biden has dropped out of the 2024 presidential race and endorsed Kamala Harris. And Kamala is absolutely killing it on TikTok. She's winning over Gen Z votes. Meanwhile,
Barack Obama has noticeably not endorsed Kamala. We'll discuss what that could mean. Plus, updates on the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump and Kim Cheetos' horrendous congressional hearing yesterday. All this on Bungie New Report Early Edition. ♪♪
Okay, I want to quickly update you guys on why there was no show yesterday. Dan said there was a little bit of a family emergency. That's true. I was stuck in the Midwest because of this horrible outage and my flight was canceled, but also I went home to rural Wisconsin after the RNC to visit my grandmother who
who has not been doing well in the hospital for a really long time, and she actually ended up passing away on Sunday. I was able, thankfully, to see her on Saturday, and so I appreciate you guys being understanding about
There being no show yesterday. And I have a picture of her. I don't know if we could put that up. Yeah, so she's obviously in the middle, my grandma Carol. She had 11 children. My dad is the second youngest in the family. He's on the bottom left-hand corner in the green shirt. You'll see him. I mean...
It was a really emotional weekend, but it was also very beautiful to see all of her children surrounding her throughout this whole months-long ordeal. She has never been alone once. I think it's really, to me, been a testament to how beautiful
and wonderful large families are and something that's maybe been lost since family sizes have gotten so much smaller over the years. So, you know, if you feel in your heart that you want to pray for her soul, I would appreciate that. She was a wonderful, wonderful woman. And again, I appreciate you guys being understanding about what happened yesterday.
But I'm excited now to get back into the news cycle because it has been absolutely insane since last night. Who is running our country? Who is in charge right now? I don't know. Joe Biden has reiterated for weeks now that he intends to run. He's he's in this race. Then he gets sick and there are reports that he suffered some sort of medical emergency. He disappears from public eye, terminates
Terminates his presidential campaign with a tweet, just a tweet. Doesn't inform his White House staff prior to this tweet. Immediately endorses Kamala. And then he's not been seen since. And I have been telling Michael all over the last couple of days, we need proof of life ASAP. I need to know that this man is alive and here, that he consented to dropping out of this race. Yesterday, we got the so-called proof of life.
Biden called into one of Kamala's events in Delaware. And I want you guys to listen to this and pay attention closely to what Kamala says in the very beginning. Let's play this video. It is so good to hear our president's voice. Joe, I know you're still on the call.
And we've been talking every day. You probably, you guys heard it from Doug's voice. We love Joe and Jill. We really do. They truly are like family to us. And we do everybody here, though. It's mutual. I knew you were still there. You're not going anywhere, Joe. I'm watching you, kid. I'm watching you, kid. I love you. I love you, Joe.
Did you guys hear it? Listen to the very beginning one more time. Let's play the beginning one more time, Michael, where she says, and then she says, you know, on the call or whatever. It sounded like she was about to say recording. That's what people are saying online. And it does sound like a little bit. Let's play the beginning one more time. It is so good to hear our president's voice. Joe, I know you're still on the call, and we've been talking every day.
I don't I don't know. I don't know. But it kind of sounded like she said recording. And the point is, this is not proof of life. I need to see this man. I need to see Joe Biden ASAP, if not for the fact that we just want to dispel the conspiracies. Let the American people know Joe is OK. I don't know why they don't just do a little video call. We know that he's he's sick. He has covid. There are other rumors that he's had some sort of medical emergency. If that's not the case, that he just has covid.
Let us see Joe Biden. We need to see the president of the states make sure he's all good. And all of this looks really, really bad for our country. Right. There are people speculating right now that we are in the midst of an actual coup. Here's Thomas Massey.
actually suggesting that if a coup could happen in your own country, would you recognize it? This is a coup of a puppet regime. That's a really serious allegation from a member of Congress. It feels like we are living in a banana republic. This is not normal functioning government behavior. This is bizarre. This whole situation is bizarre. This is the last time that we saw Joe Biden. Let's play this video. Slowly, sort of feebly...
Walking off Air Force One. That's the last that we've seen of him. Where is Joe? We're good with that, Michael. I cannot overemphasize enough how dangerous this is. You have to think about what this looks like to our foreign adversaries.
Even if he appears in public all of a sudden and he's totally fine, and I hope that's the case, we have a president who has publicly admitted that he is not mentally and physically fit to
to serve this next four years as president. So how is he fit to serve right now? Who is running the show right now? We have never, at least in my lifetime, admittedly, that's pretty short, but at least in my lifetime, we have never been more vulnerable as a country. This is extremely dangerous.
And now we have to address Kamala, right? Because Joe apparently, so on social media has endorsed Kamala Harris, who is the ultimate DEI hire of the United States of America. She did not earn the job that she has.
She's not supposed to be vice president. She was explicitly picked not on merit, but because of her race and her sex. Again, this is very dangerous. What does this signal to our foreign adversaries to know that Kamala Harris, the DEI hire, is now going to be the Democrat, presumptive Democrat nominee? Extremely dangerous times we are living through.
It's also worth noting that, and we have to keep hammering this home as we talk about this election cycle, as you talk to your friends, your family, your neighbors,
That Kamala was complicit in this cover up. She knew probably more intimately than anyone other than Jill Biden and Hunter Biden that Joe Biden was in cognitive decline. And she did not sound the alarm bells. She's embroiled in this scandal to lie to the American people about the mental state of our president, of the leader of the free world. Kamala Harris is 100 percent complicit in that cover up.
Now, despite Kamala's failings, as borders are, her involvement in the cover-up of Joe Biden's cognitive decline, she's getting a lot of traction on TikTok. People are really rallying for her. I, for one, think it's astroturfing. I'm not really sure that young people are that excited about TikTok, but nonetheless,
Kamala anthems have taken over young people's social media feed and all those things that we like to make fun of Kamala for right. The coconut tree weird thing that she said unburdened by what has been.
They're actually using those as anthems for her. They're applauding her for her very stupid, bizarre statements on TikTok. And I'm sorry I have to do this to you guys, but I'm going to show you some examples of what I'm talking about. Here's the first example of Kamala. You think you just fell out of a coconut tree? You exist in the context, like a bitch, of all in which you live and what came before you. No. No.
I hate to say this. It's going to win Gen Z votes. This is my generation. I know it's bad. That's going to win Gen Z votes, at least Gen Z female votes. And we know that Biden was bleeding with young people. I think he is. Kamala will get more young votes than Biden. And
It's a problem. It's going to be a problem for the right. We have to have our own social media presence. I've been saying this for a long time. We need to up our game. Democrats really have a monopoly on young spaces on the internet. I have another example. Of course, the celebrities are now hopping on the Kamala Harris train. Let's play this one. This is a singer, Kesha, very, very famous musician, if you didn't know. You think you just fell out of a coconut tree?
Dance. Okay.
So, of course, celebrities are hopping on the trend. Lizzo is all has also made many videos for Kamala. And what is happening right now is her team is trying to make Kamala cool. And it's working a little bit. It's where it's working so far. And I think she's going to get a lot of Gen Z votes. She's probably going to outperform Biden had Biden stayed in the race with Gen Z. And so the bottom line is
Kamala is dumb, but it appears that her team is not. Her team is actually engaging in some very smart campaigning. This is why Dan always says no red wave talk. We have to take her seriously, just like we were taking Biden seriously. Now, it's not all perfect for Kamala. Obama
has not endorsed her. And everyone knows that Obama is at the helm of this administration, right? He's the one running the Democrat Party. And his endorsement is the one that really matters, not Joe Biden's endorsement. This is what Obama said in his statement after Joe Biden dropped out of the race. He said...
We will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead, but I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges. I believe that Joe Biden's vision of a generous, prosperous and united America that provides opportunity for everyone will be on full display at the Democratic Convention in August. There's no mention of Kamala in that statement.
And now, just before Biden got out of the race, AOC, of all people, actually warned us that they, unclear who they is, right, wanted to remove the whole ticket, meaning Joe and Biden.
Kamala, they, meaning Democrat deep state establishment, did not want her. So let's play a video of AOC saying that. This is, of course, before Biden actually got out of the race, but I think it's still important that we are reminded of this. I'm just going to say it. If you think that there is consensus among the people who want Joe Biden to leave, then
that they will support Kamala, Vice President Harris, you would be mistaken. And I'm gonna say that because if they're gonna come out and say all their little things on background off the record, but they're not gonna be fully honest, I'm gonna be honest for them. I'm in these rooms. I see what they say in conversations. A lot of them are not just interested in removing the president.
they are interested in removing the whole ticket.
Okay, what does this mean? AOC ringing the alarm bells. Obama, notably not endorsing Kamala, tells you that this thing is not over. The DNC is still going to be interesting. Who is they? We're talking about the administrative state. We're talking about the shadow government that forced Biden to drop out of the race. Biden did not want to get out. This is who we are dealing with. And the real irony here is that it's all coming from
coming from the party that's been whining to us for years about so-called threats to democracy, right? Trump is the greatest threat to democracy. Meanwhile, they are the threats to democracy. The deep state, the blob, the Democrat establishment are the greatest threat to democracy. Democrats are rigging their own election, right? They're rigging their own election. And it's crazy to me that as they're rigging their own election,
They're still gaslighting all of us into saying, oh, 2020 was one of the most secure elections of all time. Of course, it was not one of the most secure elections of all time, right? We had voting procedures, rules changed in key election state and a key swing states in the 2020 election.
You also had the Hunter Biden laptop censored by tech platforms, told that it was Russian disinformation by the deep state, which we know people had they actually known about and verified the laptop before they cast their ballots would not have voted for Joe Biden. That could have on its own flipped 2020. So there was, of course, rigging. There was, of course, interference by the administrative state.
by the democratic establishment. And they're doing it now to their own party. And for whatever reason, their base...
doesn't seem to care. They don't seem to mind at all. We're going to keep talking about that in a second. We're going to take a quick break. When we come back, we're going to cover RFK Jr. explaining how Democrats started the election rigging a long time ago in the very beginning of the primaries by booting him out. So and removing him from the entire process. We'll cover that in just a second. But for now, a quick break. You asked a

Thank you to our sponsors for keeping this show free. I really appreciate you guys. Okay.
Here is the big question. Why aren't Democrat voters
I would be. They didn't even want Biden to begin with. Now they're having Kamala forced on them. This is RFK Jr. explaining how their party leaders shut down the primary, excluded him from the entire process. And we have to remember what they did to RFK Jr. if we want to understand what's happening right now. Let's play that video. Change the primary rules while we were running the primary.
They changed 60 different rules to make it impossible for anybody to challenge Joe Biden. One of the things that you remember that they did to me is I've been campaigning in New Hampshire, so they adopted a rule that said that any political candidate, any Democratic candidate who campaigns in New Hampshire, who steps foot into the state of New Hampshire,
that all of their votes would go to the president, all of their delegates would go to the president instead of going to that. And then they shut down the Florida primary. They shut down a bunch of primaries and just said, "We're not running them. We already have our candidate." You know, a few weeks ago, President Biden was ridiculing Vladimir Putin, who won 88% of the vote in Russia, and he said, you know, that that was a fixed election.
Because President Putin had gotten rid, made sure no adversaries could challenge him. And also that he had fixed the press so the press wouldn't cover his adversaries. Well, the Democratic Party succeeded in doing the same thing. I haven't been allowed on any of the Democratic networks, ABC, NBC, CBS. He's right. The Democrat Party is no better than Putin's Russia. It's no better.
Democrat voters have been repeatedly lied to left and right by their own party leaders. And in the midst of all this chaos.
They are just seeming to fall in line in support of Kamala. The whole thing is bizarre. To me, the most bizarre thing is the behavior of Democrat voters. I don't understand why they don't join us in our fight to curtail the power of the administrative state. They should be more angry than anyone in this time. And they don't seem to be. I don't know. You guys should drop a comment.
If you have any theories as to why Democrats go along with this, why they put up with this, why they don't join us in our fight. Of course, you know, Democrats have some benefit to the administrative state, but in some ways they don't. Like what's happening right now. They don't have control over their own process. Their votes don't actually matter in the primaries. The state ends up deciding who's going to win.
who their candidate is, whether it's Biden, who's just an empty vessel. Then they realize, okay, Biden's not going to work anymore. So they throw in Kamala. They have no agency. I don't understand why Democrats continue to put up with this.
We have to talk about the Trump assassination attempt and the updates to this story because they have been wild. Now, Kim Cheadle testified before Congress yesterday. And remember how Cheadle kept saying over and over again that there was this sloped roof on the building that the shooter was perched. And this was the reason that there were no snipers there, right? This the slope. So she was asked about the so-called sloped roof and why there were no snipers there.
positioned at this building, no agents at this building. And she refused to answer the questions from members of Congress. Let's play this infuriating video from yesterday. Of the attempted assassination and leading up to that day. Let's start with the building that the shooter used to shoot President Trump from. At any point Saturday, did the Secret Service have an agent on top of that roof?
Sir, I'm sure as you can imagine that we are just nine days out from this incident and there's still an ongoing investigation. And so I want to make sure that any information that we are providing to you is factual. Okay. Why did the Secret Service not, can you answer why the Secret Service didn't place a single agent on the roof? We are still looking into the advanced process and the decisions that were made. Okay, okay.
Why can she not? So she can talk about it in public, but she can't answer the question when she's asked by members of Congress. She's just sort of stonewall. I mean, what? Why? What's going on? And the story actually is getting worse. This is according to Senator Chuck Grassley's office that there were just three Secret Service poststanders assigned to Trump's rally, but 12 for First Lady Jill Biden's event in Pittsburgh.
Why? Surely Trump is a bigger target than Dr. Jill Biden. Dr. Jill Biden. This doesn't make any sense. And there's there were no answers yesterday. Essentially, AOC is actually asking some of the best questions here. This is I mean, I'm not trying to say AOC is is amazing and she's had a turn of heart or anything, but change of heart. But.
She's been doing some good things lately. I've been liking AOC. This is her line of questioning to Kim Cheadle that I think was excellent. They're happening in about 100 days.
So the notion of a report coming out in 60 days when the threat environment is so high in the United States, irrespective of party, is not acceptable. And I think it's very important to understand that. This is not theater. This is not about jockeying. This is about the safety of some of the most highly targeted people.
and valued targets internationally and domestically in the United States of America. So the idea that a report will be finalized in 60 days, let alone prior to any actionable decisions that would be made, is simply not acceptable. It has been 10 days since an assassination attempt on a former president of the United States, regardless of party. There need to be answers.
She is 100 percent correct. 60 days is unacceptable. The bureaucratic slow walking is dangerous and unnecessary. This isn't even I mean, that's horrible. Right. And it's a it's a it's going to be very consequential as we approach the November election.
But to me, it's not even the most annoying thing that happened yesterday. Kim Cheadle actually lied about her DEI policies as well. Let's play this video. You've spent some time trying to change the makeup of the Secret Service. Okay, you feel there are whatever, too high a percentage are men. Does this affect at all who you are hiring for the Secret Service?
I've spent my time as the director trying to increase the number of people that we hire in the Secret Service so that we have the best and the brightest, and that's been my concentration as the director. Okay, you ever hiring, hiring, not hiring men because of your desire to hit certain targets? I am hiring the best qualified candidates that put in an application that want to work for our great organization. She is lying to me.
Straight up lying to Congress, to the American people. Kim Cheadle committed to guaranteeing that 30% of Secret Services recruits would be women by the year 2030. What does this do? It lowers the standards of the agency because it lowers the standard for women. And you can actually go on their website, and Dan's talked about this as well,
The standards are explicitly different for women versus men. They are lowered for women. Women can basically walk a mile instead of run it, and they'll get into the Secret Service. There is a complete double standard. They are lowering the standard to let in more women for these DEI policies. And she just went up to all members of Congress and to the American people and lied about it.
Publicly, however, she has doubled down on her DEI policies and lashed out at anyone who criticizes her. This is a headline we have. "Cheat-O-Land DHS Secretary Alejandra Mayorkas slammed the baseless and insulting criticism of women in law enforcement." Not criticism of women in law enforcement. It's criticism of DEI. It's criticism of not letting people in based off of their merit, but on their race and sex and other immutable qualities.
That is what we are upset about. That is why we're upset about Kamala Harris being apparently the new Democratic nominee and potentially the next president. That is why people are angry. And she is really deflecting in a very disingenuous way, just like she did throughout that entire congressional hearing.
It does not sound like Kim Cheetle is interested in reforming her agency at all. And there are so many problems plaguing the Secret Service, which is really essential to our republic thriving. We will descend into utter chaos if Donald Trump dies, if Kamala Harris dies, if something, if there's a horrible accident. We need this agency to be put together. We need them to have their priorities straight. And they do not. And clearly,
This was a hostile hearing with Kim Cheadle. And Sean Davis made a really good point, had some really good advice. Members of Congress, he said on Twitter yesterday, Congress should hold Cheadle in contempt today and order the Sergeant of Arms to take her into custody.
Agreed. And guys, this is not retaliation. This is not retribution. Right. This is justice. Unelected bureaucrats in this country have gotten away with abusing their power and abusing the American people and refusing to be beholden to Congress for way too long. And the double standard.
between the left and the right has persisted for way too long. Members of Congress need to actually start taking action, need to start taking action instead of just having these hearings that ultimately lead nowhere and allow them to lie in stonewall and subvert justice. It needs to end.
I'm going to end this show by saying that I don't think Donald Trump is a perfect candidate. This is an imperfect world. There's never going to be a perfect candidate. I don't think that he had a perfect presidency the last time around. There were issues. There's things that make me take pause.
As we look to a potential second Trump term, I talked about this last week, you have J.D. Vance saying that he wants to punch Iran hard. That kind of rhetoric to me is very troublesome. It makes me, again, take pause with a potential Trump presidency. And I want us to continue to be critical of our leaders, to continue to ask questions and hold them to the highest standard.
But if I have ever seen a Trump endorsement, a reason to vote for him and stand by him, it is this video that I came across yesterday with the World Economic Forum contributor and Klaus Schwab right-hand man Yuval Harari. Listen to what this man says. This is a very powerful man. He may replace Klaus Schwab in the future at the World Economic Forum.
Listen to what he said. Are you concerned that Trump might be elected again shortly? I think it's very likely. And if it happens, it is likely to be the kind of like the death blow to what remains of the global order. And he says it openly. Now, again, it should be clear that many of these politicians, they present a false dichotomy, a false binary vision of the world, as if you have to choose between
patriotism and globalism between being loyal to your nation and being loyal to some kind of, I don't know, global government or whatever. If that isn't a Trump endorsement,
I don't know what is. And guys, it's not a false dichotomy, as Yuval says. We are actually facing off against globalism. That is the central issue. This election cycle is is consolidation of power here at home, but also globally. That is why so many people fear Trump, because he is not an empty vessel like Joe Biden was like Kamala Harris is. Right.
Right. He has a real agenda. He has agency. He is not controllable. Even his staff couldn't control what he was tweeting at 4 a.m. in the morning. Right. This is why Trump is a threat to the deep state threat to globalist entities. And again, if that video is an endorsement of Trump, I don't know what is.
I'm going to end by saying that after what happened this weekend, I have been thinking a lot about family, thinking a lot about what it means in the times that we're living through. These are really uncertain times. We had an assassination attempt, the RNC, a coup against Biden. Kamala is now in the mix, but Obama won't endorse her. These are very chaotic times.
very undetermined times. And I think something that we can control in our lives is the relationships that we have with our family, with our friends, with our neighbors. I think it's important to cling to that as things continue to spiral, it seems, as they continue to get more and more authoritarian, more dystopian. So I hope that maybe that's a positive note to to
focus on the things we can control, which is the relationships that we have with real people and the connections that we have with them. Because ultimately, those are going to be the people you want by your side if things do go very poorly in this country as we head to November.
And that is all I have for today. If you are listening, you can head to rumble.com slash Spontina report to access the video version of this show. We are here five days a week at 9 a.m. Eastern time, except for yesterday, which I again apologize for. And I appreciate you guys being understanding of what happened over the weekend. See you all next time.
