Dan Bongino on Getting the President’s Daily Brief: ‘Somebody, Go Get Me a Cup of Coffee ... It Relaxes Me a Little Bit’
EXCERPT:
BONGINO: “The threat picture now for the United States is dramatic, and I really appreciate we have a president, an attorney general and FBI director take those threats seriously. I mean, you name it, Sean. You ask me what is the biggest threat right now, people say, 'What keeps you up at night?' Well, the answer is, I would never sleep if I thought about the stuff all the time. But it all keeps me up at night. The drone threat, this is a perilous, acute threat, it is not here tomorrow, it is here today. Everybody saw what happened in Russia. It's only a matter of time, if we don’t take action, which are promised you the attorney general and the director are taking action on this threat, it is here right now. You have the threat of AI alignment there. You have the threat of China infiltration into our systems. It has been publicly reported, you have seen it. When you get the president’s daily brief every morning, like the director and I do for this half an hour block we get, it's the first thing we do, you know, Sean, you walk out of there, you're like, 'Somebody go get me a cup of coffee.' I mean, this is really — I need — a coffee relaxes me a little bit. Because you go out of there, your blood pressure is through the roof. It is so many different things to action.”
