Shownotes Transcript

Good morning and welcome to Bungina Report Early Edition. I am your host, Avita. Reminder that all the stories I cover here will be featured on BunginaReport.com if you want to read some more. And we have a lot to talk about today. First, Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheadle has resigned. Good riddance. The left...

is going after J.D. Vance, and it seems like all of their criticisms of him are completely backfiring. Democrat censorship efforts are ramping up ahead of the election. We're going to talk about what some of those look like. Elon Musk has declared war on the, quote, woke mind virus. Good for him. And lastly, Pennsylvania is launching an investigation into

into a school district superintendent after he allowed a, and this is real guys, genderqueer witch to discuss sexual topics with children. All of this on Bunting Report, early edition.

So Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheadle has resigned. And Biden, who appointed her, had this to say after the announcement was made. Quote, Jill and I are grateful to Director Kim Cheadle for her decades of public service. As a leader, it takes honor, courage, and incredible integrity to take full responsibility for an organization tasked with one of the most challenging jobs in public service.

So Biden, who frankly should have fired Kim Cheadle instead of allowing her to resign, is thanking her. Not only is he thanking her, he's applauding her after her organization almost got Trump killed. Disgusting. Even congressional Democrats have not defended Kim Cheadle. In fact, we played a video yesterday of AOC being highly critical of her and her organization stonewalling and slow walking Congress in the wake of this assassination attempt.

And the takeaway for us is that Kim Cheadle went to that hearing, which we covered yesterday and Dan covered as well, gave the public zero answers. She did not hold any accountability or any really responsibility. Then she ended up taking some of the blame sort of publicly by resigning, right? Sort of absorbed it all.

And now the administrative state is going to tell us to drop this story, right? You got, you have your fall guy as Kim Cheadle drop it. And we cannot drop this story now. And I'm going to tell you why, because this next report really makes my blood boil. The secret service is now asking the Trump campaign to stop holding outdoor rallies. So they failed.

They are not remedying the mistakes and issues within their organization. And now they're telling Trump, stop campaigning. We have a video. Let's play that.

And just breaking moments ago, Brett, I want to tell you that the Secret Service is apparently now telling or asking the Trump campaign to stop doing their rallies outdoors. This is reporting from The Washington Post, just breaking in the last couple of minutes here. I can tell you that I asked Don Jr. about that at the RNC last week, if he was going to encourage his father to stop holding rallies outdoors.

outdoors. He said that his father would not like that at all. He loves those outdoor rallies. So we're still trying to work this story right now. But that's coming from the Washington Post, the Secret Service is now encouraging the Trump campaign to stop doing those outdoor rallies. Yeah, fascinating. The state has tried to throw Trump off the ballot. They have tried to throw him in prison.

And now it appears as more information comes out that the state actually weaponized incompetence against Trump, right? His team was asking over and over, we need more personnel. We need more security technology.

And they were not given those things by the Secret Service. And Trump was almost killed because of it, because of those failures. And now the state is demanding that Trump stop campaigning because of their insidious mistakes and failures. And guys, this is all a game. That's what this whole thing is. It's dirty tricks.

by a weaponized federal government that frankly our founding fathers would have cut down ages ago. There was, I mean, this is unconscionable that they made mistakes

They are failing to remedy those failures. Even AOC and Democrats in Congress have pointed this out. And now they're going to tell Trump to stop campaigning because of what they have done. And that's ultimately been the goal the whole time, right? To stop this campaign, to prevent Trump from getting elected by any means necessary.

I have more on this Trump assassination attempt. Just these stories are going to keep making you guys angry, I swear. Democrats want a man named Representative Benny Thompson to serve on the bipartisan commission to investigate the assassination attempt on Trump. Now, who is Benny Thompson?

He's just the guy who sponsored legislation to eliminate Trump's security detail. Does that seem like a conflict, Michael? Just a little bit, a little bit of a conflict, a little bit of an issue there. You guys, you cannot make this up. We have to stay on top of the story. We cannot, especially after Kim Cheadle has resigned, there's going to be a push to let it go, to drop it.

We cannot trust the FBI to investigate this properly. We cannot even trust members of Congress to investigate this properly. Clearly, Democrats aren't coming into this in good faith. Otherwise, they never would have had Benny Thompson on this committee or asked him to be on this investigative committee. We have to continue to ask questions and stay on top of the story.

We're going to talk about J.D. Vance. You guys, the left is coming after J.D. Vance with some of the dumbest criticisms I have ever seen. And we're going to address one of them head on. This is a recent article in The Atlantic. J.D. Vance's empty nationalism.

And in this article, the Atlantic is reacting to part of a speech that J.D. Vance gave at the RNC. I think I have a video. Let's play that. You know, one of the things that you hear people say sometimes is that America is an idea. And to be clear, America was indeed founded on brilliant ideas like the rule of law and religious liberty, things written into the fabric of our Constitution and our nation.

But America is not just an idea. It is a group of people with a shared history and a common future. It is, in short, a nation. That had the Atlantic.

They're not happy at all. In fact, they said that this sentiment is sinister and racist. I'm going to read you guys the quote, the argument that America is a nation and not an idea is much more sinister than perhaps it sounds at first. Listen, if America is a creedal nation, then anyone can be an American. But if real Americans are those who share a specific history, then some of us are more American than others. These people are,

hate the United States of America and genuine American citizens. That is what this comes down to. And I'll tell you what's racist. What's racist, and I can say this as somebody who lived on the South side of Chicago in a predominantly black neighborhood,

It's racist to have illegal immigrants come into black and brown neighborhoods, flood them, take away their resources, right? Have their taxes go up because we're all paying for the lives of these illegal migrants, right? Their housing, their food.

And then dilute their vote in these neighborhoods because you have black and brown citizens voting in the upcoming election because Democrats refuse to sign into law. Biden specifically refuses to sign into law the SAVE Act because they want illegals voting in our elections and diluting black and brown votes because they know black and brown people aren't happy with Biden. Now we have Kamala Harris, so the story's a little different. But the point is,

This hurts real American citizens, irrespective of race. It has nothing to do with race. And you know what else is sinister? Refusing to say that America is a nation because you want to destroy everything that makes us a nation and a people. You don't care. Actually, you disdain our shared values, the things that united us under the founding fathers, right? Under what we were made and created to be.

You want our country flooded with millions of unvetted illegal immigrants, which poses a serious national security threat, but also changes who we are as a people. It's not just dangerous, right? It is sinister. They are sinister. That is so wrong. And we had a tradition in America, right, where when we had waves of immigrants coming

it was controlled. We would absorb them, right? They would assimilate into American culture. There's nothing wrong with immigration, but what's wrong is when you flood our borders and there's no room for assimilation.

And suddenly, who you are as a people begins to fundamentally change. And the only individuals who would want us to fundamentally change are malicious actors, people who hate our country and our values.

And that's what it comes down to is a disrespect for our founding, a disrespect for who we are as a nation. The left believes that we are morally relative, right? That there's this total separation between church and state. That's a big one that they always say.

But our constitutional republic had laws in the beginning, like religious tests for office, right? Or if you were an atheist, you actually weren't allowed to hold office in some parts of the United States because they said, well, you can't swear on anything. You don't believe in anything. So it wouldn't be meaningful.

which I agree with. They had Sabbath laws, right? Christian blasphemy laws. There was a sense that America was a Christian country. John Adams actually said, our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. Our founders were all in agreement on that, right? This is why they said we are endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, right?

That's the purpose of that phrasing, right? We were immoral and religious people. That's what we were always intended to be. We had shared values and a shared culture. And the people who want to cut that down by flooding our country with people that don't share those values and don't have a chance to assimilate actually hate us. And that's actually what is sinister, right?

I mean, these are also the same people who want America to be part of every globalist entity out there. UN, WHO, WEF, NATO. They do not care about the American people and they do not care about our interests here at home. They don't. They hate us.

More on J.D. Vance. He's committed to the American people, and that is a really sinister thing to the left, apparently. Right. What a crime. Yeah, he's really, really this is really upset Democrats. So this is an older video that's now circling the Internet of J.D. Vance. Let's play it. And I'll tell you what the left is saying about it.

Saying is that we're effectively run in this country via the Democrats, via our corporate oligarchs, by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they've made. And so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too. And it's just a basic fact. You look at Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, AOC, the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children. And how does it make any sense that we've turned our country over to people who don't really have a direct stake in it?

This has Hillary Clinton furious. She says, what a normal, relatable guy who certainly doesn't hate women having freedoms. When will she go away? Michael, when will she's just constantly popping up? I think she did an interview with Kamala Harris yesterday, and it was the worst thing ever. I do not recommend listening to it. I did. It's kind of my job, but

J.D. Vance, the point is J.D. Vance is 100% correct, right? We want normal leaders. We want people who have families. We want people who have a stake in our country. We don't want people who are bizarre and susceptible, frankly, to compromise by maybe the CIA. I mean, sexual blackmail is real in America and in other parts of the West. So yeah, he's making a great point there.

Maybe it says more about Hillary that she doesn't like that. And by the way, I'll say the freedom that Hillary is talking about, right? Women prioritizing their careers over marriage and family.

has left women deeply, deeply unhappy. Young liberal women are the most mentally ill demographic in America. I'm not being annoying. I'm not lying. This is true. Pew Research, look it up. Most mentally ill demographic. And every time that the left tries to expose J.D. Vance,

I just seem to like him more. These clips are great. I mean, I'm not, I didn't know much about JD Vance before Trump made this announcement. I had a few reservations. I've talked about them, but seriously, everything that they come at him for really endears me to him. Really, really endears me to him. Now,

We have to realize that the media has weaponized itself against JD Vance and their rhetoric is being promoted by big tech platforms. It's also being promoted on X. So there are serious censorship concerns as we move along in this 2024 election cycle.

We're going to take a quick break. When we come back, we're going to continue to talk about election integrity, how it is going to impact this next election and how it is being weaponized, right? The censorship is being weaponized against the right. We'll be right back.

Thank you to our sponsors for keeping this show free. Guys, I will never stop saying this. Censorship is going to be one of, if not the biggest challenge come 2024. And I have a few headlines to share with you. We have to stay on top of this. Google buries Trump campaign website, even in thick of Republican national convention. And this is a quote from MRC.

MRC researchers searched Google using a clean environment without the influence of prior search history and tracking cookies and found that the search giant completely eliminated Donald Trump's website from the top 100 search results while pushing President Joe Biden's campaign website up to number one spot. And now, of course, it will be Kamala Harris now that she's taken over and is the presumptive nominee.

It's not just Google, right? We know Google censors conservatives. We know that they are suppressing our content. So is YouTube. So is Instagram and Facebook meta. But X is also a problem come 2024. This is and I'll just say before I get into the story that in recent weeks, X has formally partnered with an organization called GARM.

I covered this last week, but as a reminder, GARM is the Global Alliance for Responsible Media, which is a World Economic Forum partnered organization that brings together the biggest advertisers and the biggest big tech platforms to de-platform and demonetize right-wing media outlets and commentators. So you already have that problem. This is a new headline.

From MRC X is actively boosting content posted by Democrat congressional members accounts while simultaneously de-amplifying their GOP counterparts in the middle of the election year. And MRC goes on to explain that a radical remnant is still working against Musk in secret by tilting the scales in favor of the left. The censorship practices of old Twitter that we thought, but that were thought to be a thing of the past are very much active today.

Now, of course, remember how the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story potentially flipped the 2020 election in favor of Joe Biden. So we will never have fair, free elections if we do not have freedom in the digital public square. We have to be able to talk about topics of the day freely. And unfortunately, even X is not perfect.

something we have to stay on top of. It's why social rumble are so important because there is authentic freedom on these platforms. Keep pushing those right to your, to your family and friends so that we can actually have discourse on platforms that allow it. We're going to switch gears and cover a video that I came across from sky news that I just, I have to share with you guys.

Before I play it, I want you to pay attention to this woman's daughter as she's being interviewed about the upcoming election. Let's play that. I don't know if it's just a ploy because I'm not trustworthy of what the Democrats are doing. I think they'll do anything. We just can't trust them. We've seen what they've done before. And so they can do anything they want to do, right, to convince the public.

that they need to bring in another Democrat or, you know, to decrease the trust of the Republican Party. So there's just a lot of distrust. You sound like a woman who wants another man in the White House. I need a leader. So that little girl was absolutely mortified by her mother espousing, you know, criticisms of Democrats, fear of Democrats, right? And

It's disturbing, but unfortunately it is very normal today. We have an entire generation of people who are being conditioned to fear, straying from the left, lest they face social ostracization or professional punishment. And I have really intimate understanding of this. I ran a conservative and libertarian paper when I was in college at the University of Chicago.

And I had students who were part of the paper quit because he said, oh, I'm afraid that this will, you know, affect me professionally. I had kids, I've had kids come back a year, two years, three years after leaving the paper and saying, I need you to take down my articles that I wrote because I don't want somebody to read it and know my, and see my byline and punish me or fire me. This is the reality.

for an entire generation. There's an entire group of young people who do not feel free to speak or even think freely anymore. You will be called names, right? You'll be called a xenophobe, a homophobe, a racist. I've been called all those things. I've been, you know, incessantly bullied by left-wingers.

This is how they operate, right? You will lose your job. You will lose scholarships. You'll lose your friends. You might even lose your education. I knew a young woman who posted pro-Trump TikToks, and she had her college acceptance letter revoked by a university because she was pro-Trump. There are examples of this all the time. Young people live in a different America than our parents and our grandparents. This is completely divorced from what some of you who may be listening understand.

are even aware of, right? Or even have ever experienced, right? We are living in a world that wants to control the minds of children and they will condition them in very Orwellian dystopian ways to make sure that they stay in ideological line. And it's very scary.

We're going to talk about this Pennsylvania story. Again, children are the targets of so much of what the left is doing in our country, the war, the cultural war that they are waging. So Pennsylvania has launched an investigation into a school district superintendent after he allowed a genderqueer witch to discuss sexual topics with children without parental consent.

You cannot make this stuff up, I swear. This is from The Daily Wire. The genderqueer witch reportedly talked to students about dating violence and administered a survey on their sexual history, including asking them whether they had ever pressured anyone into sexual activity. Parents also believe that this genderqueer witch distributed resources from Planned Parenthood at the meeting.

And unfortunately, this is just par for the course, right? Stories like this are coming up all the time. They're not even shocking anymore. And what's ironic is the left wants religion removed out of public spaces, right? The left was furious when you had a state say, oh, we're going to have the 10 commandments displayed in the classroom. We're going to require that you teach the Bible in the classroom, which by the way, that's just human history. We should be teaching the Bible, right? This is a wildly impactful book, right?

that should be standard irrespective of what religious faith you come from. You learn about that. But the left wants religion and Christianity specifically pushed out of the public square and especially pushed out of public schools. But they're replacing religion

Christianity with a different kind of religion. We have to be honest about what this is. This is a religious cult on its own, right? This is essentially paganism that they are pushing on our children and replacing Christianity with in public schools.

Never let people tell you that this is about freedom, freedom from Christianity. It is not. And as I talked about before, our founding fathers intended for us to be a Christian country. We have to be a moral people. Now, they didn't want us to be sectarian. They didn't want to say, OK, the United States is going to endorse just Protestants, just evangelicals.

But they wanted freedom from sectarianism, but a Christian country. And they would never have permitted the kind of demonic activity that we're now seeing promoted in public schools.

Now, I know I said that X is not perfect, but Elon Musk has done the best he can to create a free speech platform. I really think he is trying. I think he is a genuine guy. And I especially think that after I saw this interview he did with Jordan Peterson a couple days ago,

And it really helps you understand why he's taken on this fight. It is, this is a sad clip, but I think it really helps us understand where he's coming from. Let's play it. - It happened to one of my older boys. I was essentially tricked into

signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier. This was before I had really any understanding of what was going on. We had COVID going on, so there was a lot of confusion. You know, I was told, Xavier might commit suicide if he's incredibly evil.

and i agree with you that people that have been promoting this should go to prison so i was i was tricked into doing this um it wasn't explained to me that puberty blockers are actually just sterilization drugs i lost my son essentially uh so you know they uh they call it dead naming for a reason yeah

All right, so the reason it's called dead naming is because your son is dead. So my son Xavier is dead, killed by the woke mind virus. Yeah, well, that's a good reason to be the final straw. So I vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after. We had to cut that up a little bit so that it was shorter for the time. But you get the idea, right? The woke mind virus figuratively killed Elon Musk's son.

And that's why he's in this fight. This is a horrible thing that happened to Elon Musk's family, but he has chosen to be very powerful and very brave in the wake of this tragedy, right? It is a tragedy to have your son be mutilated by an ideology that is cancerous, that is frankly evil.

And a lot of parents today are now being faced with what Elon Musk is faced with, right? The trancing of their kids. And it's really painful to admit when you're wrong, right? Because if you admit that you were wrong about trancing your child, if you admit that you, you know, sterilized them and permitted them before they could really consent to it to change their gender, which is not really changing gender, it's just mutilation and chemical castration.

You can it's very painful. It's it's very difficult to come to terms with and a lot of people will double down. But Elon Musk has admitted that he was wrong, that he has irrevocably harmed his son. And he has taken action, very bravely taken action and done what he can to fight and and push back against the people and the ideology that hurt him and his son.

And that is a very powerful, very admirable thing that he has done. I think it all comes down to staying committed to the truth. We are in a battle for ultimately the soul of our nation. And Elon Musk is committed to the truth when he said, you know, I admit that I was wrong. I admit that this was a scam. I admit that I've hurt my son and not protected him. And I'm going to fight back.

That is a very, very powerful thing that I think we can all learn from. And that's all I have for today.
