The only sources that mention 60 Minutes using a clip from The Dan Bongino Show are Bongino's own podcast and a low-credibility summary of his channel, which repeat the claimant's account. No authoritative source (CBS, 60 Minutes, or a fact-checker) confirms or disputes it, so the claim cannot be graded in either direction.

What was said

… I've been floating all weekend. I couldn't wait to get back into the show, but I do have a lot to talk about, including a look. Dad, we made it. 61 minutes. Ah, "clip 61 minutes." You mean 60 minutes? No, 61. Remember, they they cut a minute out. Kamala Harris. And who's back? She's back, and they're using clips from What Has Two Thumbs and Has a Show, this guy. They use a clips from our show in 61 minutes. Now, hilarious. I got that, and also a Barack Obama tweet that would be laughable if it wasn't so dangerous. Big show for you today. Thanks for being here on Monday. We love you guys. Bungee, and I'm such an honor to be here with you. …

What we found

Contradicts. No source contradicts the claim; the authoritative 60 Minutes listing (CBS News, Oct. 18, 2026) names segments but does not mention any use of Bongino's show.[2]

Context. The post (Ep. 2619, posted 2026-10-19) says a 60 Minutes segment used clips from the show, and the extracted claim matches that wording.

Context. A skim summary of Bongino's channel says he responded to a 60 Minutes segment that used a clip of his show, but this only restates the claimant's own account and is not independent corroboration.[3]

Context. Bongino's Weekend Report transcripts discuss a 60 Minutes interview with a DHS general counsel, not the use of his show's clips, so they do not address the claim.[4][5]

Context. The PolitiFact fact-check concerns a different Bongino claim about Harris crowd sizes and does not address 60 Minutes' use of his show.[1]
