First, before we discuss, obviously, what just happened, I think it's all important that we, people like me, who've been blessed by God with a microphone, do everything we can do to make sure we understand that God's in charge, that Jesus Christ is my Lord and savior. Right now, I think it's very important that we all pray, and we all pray for our nation. Because we are now, tragically and sadly, living through a moment in history, and certainly not a proud one. Not that my back story at this point matters. This is who really cares. But I got to tell you, I was driving back from... I was watching a movie with Paula, and a friend of mine said, Trump was shot. I have to tell you, I think like many of you, I thought it was a joke and a pretty sick one at I'm not that. But the guy who texted me is a very serious guy. services job is now done with this particular incident. The FBI will be investigating. Second, apparently, Donald Trump was treated at the hospital, and there are important points, takeaways. Everything changed after Reagan, folks. When Reagan was shot, we didn't have a hospital agent. So this is what happened. They called the hospital and they said, We're coming with the President. He was shot. You know what they did? They hung up on him.Look it up. We don't do that anymore. We always have a route to the hospital. I was a transportation agent. That's what I did. I did it for two and a half years. There was always a dedicated route to the hospital. Today, sadly, they used it. There's an agent at that hospital with a dedicated phone line. That phone line probably rang today. The first time it's rang in a long time. I bet that agent was probably surprised when he picked it up. Another important takeaway. Someone had said on a news network before that the Secret Service doesn't have an intelligence division. That is inaccurate. The Secret Service has a thoroughly staffed Protective Intelligence division. That is literally all they do is investigate threat cases. They have a PI squad in every office, Protective Intelligence, and it's run out of headquarters. The Protective Intelligence division exists and is real. I don't know why that person said that. It may have been a mistake. Again, this is not time to be critical or unnecessarily nitpicky about people's stuff. However, I don't want you to be misguided. Why is that important? We're going to know shortly. The gunman is now dead being reported on multiple news outlets right now.We're going to know the identity shortly. Was this person a monitored What we would call unusual interest case. Was this person on a secret service record in the past? Were they a Class I, Class II, Class III, Class III being really dangerous people who have shown an active interest in killing the President? I doubt it because they're usually monitored when a protectee comes to district. However, what the intelligence file, if there was one on this individual is, is going to be fascinating. When we find out the identity. Couple more points. Again, forgive me for the dauer presentation. Can I show you something on the phone? I'll show you something here. This was this morning at 8:48 AM. I had Well, did you just see that? No. I didn't find my name. Okay. I called President Trump this morning. I'm a I feel banged up about it. I feel like I distracted him, or I don't know. I feel terrible about it. I feel like I had to talk to him about something. I'm sorry. I'm really like, gross about this whole thing. I feel like I don't know. I know I don't. I wanted to talk to him about something.Now I feel like I wasted his time. Poor guy, what he went through today. Something small I had to talk to him about. I'm watching this on the screen, and another thing I wanted to put out. The armor may have saved him, ladies and gentlemen. If you look on the stage, that what appears to be the... It looks ceremonial. See, it looks like a flag designed with the red, white, and blue. That's likely armor. There's a darn good chance that that armor possibly saved him. Folks, that's something, again, we don't know, but it looks like it was 8 to 10 shots. It was at a shot that hit It appears to be the case at this point. But I mean, what else could it have possibly been? I want to end on a couple of notes here. This is one broadcast I really wish I'd never, ever done, ever. It's time for a full presidential package for President Trump. If you go back and listen to episode 2079, President Trump does not have that. He doesn't have that now. I get it, there are some legalities involved, but President Trump is a former President running for re-election.You essentially have two incumbents running. Folks, he does not have a full presidential package right now. It is putting the man in danger. His threat level is apocalyptic and catastrophic. It is time right now for Kim Chetel, the Secret Service Director, to get her head out of her and do the right thing. I could tell you stories for days about her putting politics ahead of presidential protection. I am not being overly emotional because I've said it before. The secret service director is utterly unqualified right now to be doing what she's doing. It is time for her first to get this thing solved. It's an emergency situation right now and find out what happened, but she should step down immediately. Some of the things she has told people on that detail about security arrangements, clearly making political statements, she is completely unqualified. It is time for President Trump to have a full presidential package. I'll leave you with this, and then I'm asking you all, please, again, it's in these times where... I'm not some freaking poet, man, so we don't need to do any of that stuff. I'm just saying, when these people get lost at sea, they have lighthouses and stuff for a reason.God's that one for you, and he's that one for us right now. Just ask. Just open up. Prayer matters. It's not a joke. It's not some scam. What do you think? This was all created out of some alien mist or something. We need them right now. The nation needs them. We're still the United States of America, even though we got a lot of crazy people. You don't want some foreign country right now taking advantage of this chaos. And on this. Listen, I say all the time, maybe put a little smile on your face in a really tragic time. Campaigns are snapshots and sound bites. That's all they are. Donald Trump's got a lot of guts, man, getting up there, exposing himself again to what he knew, what he knew was an assassination attempt and pounding his fist in the air. That snapshot is going to live forever. Hey, thanks for tuning in. And again, I'm really sorry about the dour approach. That's been on my mind. I just feel like I wasted his time a little bit. Thanks for tuning in, folks. I will see you from the RNC on Monday. God bless America. You just heard the Dan Bongino Show.
