John King has described panic inside the Democratic Party right now because of President Biden's performance in tonight's debate. He's been hearing from Democratic lawmakers and others around the country. Um some within your own party. Are you wondering if President Biden should even step aside? What do you say to that?
Listen, first of all, What we saw tonight is the President making a very clear contrast with Donald Trump on all of the issues that matter to the American people. Yes, there was a slow start, but it was a strong finish. And what became very clear through the course of the night is that Joe Biden is fighting on behalf of the American people, on substance, on policy, on performance.
So the debate last night. Whew. Boy, I'm telling you what, guys. I have been I've been to a number of debates. I've been to a number of debates.
I've covered them either with CNN I've covered it with Fox. I've watched, you know, as a kid. A number of debates. I think the first debate I ever watched was Clinton's. And out of all the debates that I have ever watched in my life.
Out of all of the performances by politicians that I have seen. None have been as bad and alarming. As what I saw. last night. And I don't think that a single person Whether you like Biden or don't like Biden whether you like Trump or don't like Trump There's not a single person.
Who can say? that they watched that. and felt As though The world is in good hands. The country is in good hands. Because it was A horrific That was just a car crash.
And I mean, I don't know. Golly. I I it was just it was it was horrible. He walked out and I made mention of this in the newsletter. Right when he walked out.
Joe Biden, anyway, right when he walked out. you knew immediately it was going to be rough because he looked like a confused C3PO.
Okay. When he walked out. Did you watch the whole thing, Kane? He looked like a super confused C3PO. And It went w it w got worse from there.
It got worse from there. And I thought, honestly, I don't know if you saw. you know at the end of it because you could hear his voice get weaker and weaker as it went on. And you know, at at the end of it, you could see That Joe, Jill, I almost said Joe, that Jill Biden had to help him down the stairs of the debate. There was that video that came out from CNN.
But like I said It is the most disturbing I don't know. I don't want to say political performance. I was almost speechless. It was just one of the most disturbing things I think I've ever seen. Because he is the President of the United States right now.
So I want you to realize this. This was Joe Biden rested. And prepped. Rested, yeah, and prepped. He almost seemed a little over prepped, if you notice, like some of his.
Answers and all of that stuff. He almost seemed Like he was over prepared. With some of his talking points, because he was too ready for them, and I feel like he was, he thought he could just kind of slur through them, and that was gonna be enough. And he just blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I've never seen anything like it in my life.
So, this is the guy who's the president of the United States making decisions about all of the stuff that affects our everyday lives. making decisions about our money, our national security. War. Heaven forbid. And It is so bad that Democrats now are trying to figure out how in the world.
They can get around. Joe Biden being in how they can get around him. How can they get around him?
So, welcome to the show. I mean, I have so much. We're going to try to get into everything today, but I don't know if we're going to be able to, guys, because we've got a number of Supreme Court decisions that are coming down the pike.
So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to try to best get you set up. It's just so much today. There's so much.
So, we're going to really push through it. But I got to tell you, I had no idea I was going to start this show today. Because at first I was going to be a total smartass. But the more I thought about it, the more terrifying it is. This is the President of the United States.
And They want to replace him. Because it's so bad. It's so bad. OOOOOOO Woo-hoo! Welcome to the show.
All right, so first off, The debate last night, if you got the newsletter, and/or if you participated in the subscriber event, the chat. Then, well, you saw firsthand how crazy it was. I mean, and and the debate, I mean, all the screen the screen grabs that came from that. The moderators, let's start with that, weren't bad. They were incredibly biased, but they weren't.
Chris Wallace. I think that whoever prepped Whoever preps Donald Trump for this debate, they deserve an award. Whoever prepped Donald Trump for this debate deserved an award. Although, I want to remind you, the bar for this was low because all Biden had to do was not die on stage. He just had to stay upright.
Not Shh. His pants. And breathe. It's all he had to do. All he had to do, maybe talk a little bit more coherently than he did.
He didn't fall down, you know. But This and I'm glad too, and I noted this last night that we didn't have the phrase the idea as a square on the bingo card because some of you people were like drinking every single time you had a bingo square covered, and you guys would have died. We would be burying you this morning. But the contrast was stunning. I don't care what side of the political aisle you're on, the contrast was stunning.
Again, that was Biden rusted. He and they said they tried to blame that he had a cold.
Now, out is stutter, in is cold. They said he had a cold, you know, 'cause he's been sequestered for a week, so somehow he got a cold. The debate ended the moment that he walked out on stage. He looked confused. He looked like a C-3PO.
He looked like a damn robot. He looked horrible. He sounded horrible. He lost again the first time he spoke. His voice was weak.
It was raspy. That's not what a cold is. That's a guy who's sundowning hard, and he's at the end of life. But they had 90 minutes to fill, so what are they going to do? It was 90 minutes of Trump beating the hell out of him rhetorically.
Just beating the hell out of him. And I think actually Trump restrained himself because honestly, I think he. I think it there for a moment, I think he f he almost felt bad. You did you get that sense? I think Trump looked at the situation and was like, oh my hell.
I really do get that feeling. There were little looks that he would get, he was, he hit his expressions pretty well. but there were little tells that he gave. Where you know that he if this was a guy who was fully with it I think he would have been flayed on stage. rhetorically.
But Trump hit him on Afghanistan. He mentioned Navy Joan. And there was not a jab that Biden could deliver. that connected. Because he just couldn't speak.
He was all over the place. There was not a, there was not a jab. anything that he could that he could hit and connect. It just it it just they it it was just awful. I mean, for instance.
I mean this is This is some of I mean he I d where do we even start? Audio, just can we just start with audio soundbite five? Just start here, guys. The idea. That I did anything wrong relative to what you're talking about is outrageous.
It's simply a lie. Is it? There uh was one Point. where everybody in the uh the group discussion for the subscriber event caps locked bow. Audio sound by seven.
This was when Biden got his angriest, and you could tell that this was something that he had been.
So let me let me this setup real quick. They were talking like normal people. And Kane, say something that I don't like. Green Day is such a great band. Oh my gosh, but they're not, though.
It's not even, they're not even a great band, and they had a fake English accent for their first album.
Now, Kane's response would be immediately to go to 11. and lose his mind and get super angry. And that's literally what happened here. And he didn't, they weren't even talking about. The military.
I don't even know what they weren't even talking about, the military. And then Biden just comes out with this: Audio Soundbite 7. We have great respect for veterans. My son spent a year in Iraq living next to one of those burnt pits, came back with stage four glioblastoma. I was recently in France for a D-Day, and I spoke to all about those heroes that died.
I went to the World War II cemetery, World War I cemetery, he refused to go to. He was standing with his four-star general, and he told me, he said, I don't want to go in there because they're a bunch of losers and suckers. My son was not a loser, was not a sucker. You're the sucker. You're the loser.
President Trump? Oh, Mike. First of all, that was a made-up quote, suckers and losers. They made it up. It was in a third-rate magazine that's failing, like many of these magazines.
Yeah.
So, wait a minute. He's confusing the burn pits in Iraq with Normandy. Yeah.
So did Joe Biden's son fight in World War II? Has a sucker on the first off Trump never said that. You can hate him for a number of things. I got mad at him because of the bump stock. Bro.
He didn't say that. He that Literally is a lie. He did not say that. If you're gonna get pissed at the guy, get angry at him for something real. That was never said, and that was the majority of the stuff Biden threw at him last night.
I'm not even kidding you. It's like, let's go to Daily Coast and do all of our debate prep. That's what Joe Biden's people thought. Let's go to Let's go to to Daily Coast and and do all that. Let's just prep there.
It was, he actually wanted to go, but they, it was inclement weather and secret service, put the gabash on it, and that was the end of it. And he wanted to go because it's a historical thing. He wanted to not just pay his respects, but he, you know, it's to go and see. Where so many of the greatest generation are laid at rest is, you know, it's a truly amazing thing to be able to go see that. And he really wanted to go.
And That whole story, I mean, they, I mean, that Snopes ended up debunking Snopes, you know, that conservative website, Snopes. CNN. But Then They went into. I mean, some of the stuff that he said, I don't even. I 'cause he went in they brought up, uh, what was it, Charlottesville.
Right. And he was saying that you are oh, he that he said there's very fine people, all of that stuff. I just want to do Audio Soundbite Nine flashback with one of the moderators there at the debate last night. This was some months prior. One of the very moderators debunked one of the very things that Biden brought up.
Listen to this.
Now, elsewhere in those remarks, the President did condemn neo-Nazis and white supremacists.
So he's not saying that the neo-Nazis and white supremacists are very fine people. Same. But Biden brought that up in the debate last night, like it was a thing. That happened over and over and over and over again. The Debate They immediately, like, what is it, three-quarters of a way through?
Is that when they started saying he had a cold? I first saw it at MSNBC and then Politico ran with it. And they were saying, oh, he's got a cold. He's got a cold. That's why he sounds raspy.
That's why he doesn't sound good. It's just because he's, good heavens. We're going to get into a few other things, but I got to tell you. Uh Two of the things that we're gonna get into coming up. First off, The J6 answer, I thought the most two interesting moments from the debate last night was the abortion discussion, although I could have gone with no questions on it.
I mean, you had more questions on that damn topic than you did on taxes and immigration. But the answer that Trump gave on that was interesting and very telling. And then the second thing. That they had out there was, I mean, not just the fact that Biden was about to fall over. Oh, the third, they did do the inflation narrative, right?
They did the inflation narrative. They had that. But the other thing, too, is all of the discussion about Biden dropping out. And my friend Jen Van Law, who's been on the show before, Don't think that Democrats can't switch out. Biden, they can.

So, a few things. By the way, the Associated Press, we're going to have the media wrap-up of this. They said that Biden's debate performance was, quote, halting. We're going to talk about the panic coming up and just maybe a switch. We'll, maybe, maybe we'll see.
Russian satellite breaks up in space, forces ISS astronauts to shelter. I swear, Constellation, the series is coming to life. 100 pieces of debris in orbit. There's a lot of Russian space trash up there, honestly. A lot.
And they said U.S. Space Command's tracking the debris swarm. They said there's no immediate threat to other satellites. The Oklahoma State Superintendent announced all schools have to incorporate the Bible and Ten Commandments in curriculums as a way to not teach as a way of converting people, but teach people about it and its existence, which I don't understand what the problem is because they do that with every other religious text.
So why are people freaking out? The housing market is stuck until at least 2026 per Bank of America. They said that help is not going to be on the way for first-time homebuyers who are very frustrated by high mortgage rates, higher home prices. Economists are warning that the U.S. housing market is stuck and they are unconvinced that it will become unstuck until 2026 or even later.
Later, and they said that home prices are gonna stay high and perhaps go even higher. And the housing shortage will persist and the mortgage rates may not actually fall at all. The Federal Reserve, they're really not delivering any kind of cuts. Let's be real about this, not enough to offset the limit of your dollar. The ballooning U.S.
budget deficit is killing the American dream, says USA Today. Their deficit problem is creating an income issue for Americans. The CBO raised their estimate over the government deficit this year by a whopping 27% or $408 billion over its February forecast to $1.9 trillion. They're saying that paying for the debt can divert money away from private investment. And of course, that's going to depress wage growth.
A jury rules that the NFL owes more than $4 billion in the Sunday ticket antitrust case. The suit claimed that the NFL violated antitrust laws with its Sunday ticket offering.
Now, the league is going to appeal the ruling. This jury in Los Angeles cited against the NFL yesterday in that Sunday ticket trial. It could cost them billions. That appeal process is going to cost a lot of money as well.

Check out the best highlights from every show in Dana's Absurd Truth Podcast, posted daily from The Dana Show. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. There were so many good audio cuts from the debate last night, and there's one in particular that we need to have. And it's because I thought there were two there were two really good there were two very interesting moments last night and one of those he had it was two of Trump's answers one had to do with J6 which dovetails right into the big Supreme Court ruling that came out today which we're gonna talk about one comes by way of J6 and then the other was his abortion answer and I tweeted about those several times last night and they're also in the substack newsletter referenced so if you were watching that Uh he was asked about uh J6.
And uh I thought the way that he handled Uh His answer on that. He immediately turned it around, and I'm trying to remember. I'm looking up the transcript right now. But the way that he had answered it was that, well, you know, on January 6th, you know, we were, you know, had basically, I mean, he was saying we basically had our own energy. You know, on January 6th, our taxes were lower.
And he just got right into the meat of the real issue. And I thought that that was a very interesting because it's not been his message on that when he's been asked that before. That hasn't been his answer on that normally. And I thought that was a very good way that he handled it. And the second question that he was asked had to do with abortion.
And this was a very interesting moment, not just in the debate, I think, but also for messaging for the Republican Party. I think that this was a crucial question last night, which is why I referenced it so many times. I thought it was a crucial question because. This um The question, Republicans have always been really bad at messaging on this. And I saw some people who were upset saying that, oh, he was he's very moderate on this answer, which he's he's kind of always been moderate on abortion anyway.
If you were looking for some big pro life savior, he's going to go along with what he thinks Is going to get passed by the majority. His answer on that, when he was asked specifically about, you know, abortifations, you know, the morning after pill or whatever, and when he was asked about the exception of the life of the mother, rape, or incest, I do wish that he would have answered, well, those that's already protected in every single by every single state anyway.
So I don't know what, you know, what doubly endorsing that on what him saying would have would have changed it. I wish he would have kind of said something like that, maybe. But he said he's, he's like, well, I support, you know, exceptions for rape, incest, the life of the mother. I mean, you don't even need to get him to say whether or not he endorses it simply because you know he's all it's already codified in so many different so many different state statutes. But his messaging on it, he ended up saying, and there was a good point, he made them look like the radical.
He made them look like the radicals. And I thought that was very interesting. And he had said he made Democrats look like they were the ones who were, which they were. If you remember the legislation that was in the Senate. that was that was sponsored in the Senate.
And that went forward, if you remember that legislation. Uh that was taxpayer-funded abortion on demand up until the moment of birth. That was, I read it. That's absolutely what that legislation supported. That's where the Democrat Party is on abortion.
That is completely out of sync with the majority of Americans who actually believe in limitations. They believe in a ban after what, like 15 weeks. I mean, that's, and that's where the majority, including Democrats, so he was right. To make it look as though Democrats were the radicals. And I understand people who, and I've written about this endlessly, who talk about.
Well, you need to go straight pro-life. You need to go. I under, look, I understand that. But the march to save life isn't going to happen overnight because you're not going to change that many people's minds overnight in an instant. But what you will do is harden their hearts to hearing any kind of persuasion on it if you go too hard, too fast.
And that's the goal. This is the reality of politics. I'm not saying I agree with it. I'm saying that's the reality of politics. He took his maneuvering last night to take the approach that Democrats were the radicals because of their well-documented support for abortion on demand up until the moment of birth, taxpayer-funded, because that's what that bill Warnock, the guy out of Georgia, if you remember, he was one of the guys who co-sponsored that bill when he was upright against that in Georgia for Senate.
He was one of the guys who had backed that bill. He was defending his seat. And that was very, very, very That was a very interesting answer on that, a very interesting answer.
Now, this and his answer on J6 was interesting, which gets into some of the SCODA stuff that we're going to talk about. But the debate last night, I thought that it was Trump's best debate. I thought that he was well versed in terms of rhetoric. He was able to to take the narratives that were presented. And kind of like throw them right back.
And Biden just stood there and, you know, couldn't do anything. Biden was asked about Social Security, and he couldn't explain that. Listen. Audio sound by six, sorry. Will you name tonight one specific step that you're willing to take to keep Social Security solvent?
Yes, make the very wealthy begin to pay their fair share. Right now, everybody making under $170,000 pays 6% of their income of their paycheck every single time they get a paycheck from the time of the first one they get when they're 18 years old. The idea that they're going to I'm not I'm proposing that everybody they pay what The millionaires pay 1%. 1%.
So no one after, I would not raise the cost of Social Security for anybody under $400,000. After that, I began to make the wealthy begin to pay their fair share by increasing from 1% beyond to be able to guarantee the program. He has no plan. He has no plan at all whatsoever for Social Security. He has no plan for Social Security at all whatsoever.
None. He has none. None. He doesn't have any. I mean that's I don't know wha what do you say to that?
And he was trying to talk about when he talked about Medicare, audio sound by two. He was saying, oh, he was acting like he saved Medicare. Listen to this.
All those things we need to do, child care, elder care, making sure that we continue to strengthen our health care system, making sure that we're able to make every single solitary person eligible for what I've been able to do with the COVID, excuse me, with dealing with everything we have to do with. Oh my gosh. Yeah.
We finally beat Medicare. Thank you, President Biden. President Trump.
Well, he's right. He did beat Medicare. He beat it to death, and he's destroying Medicare because all of these people are coming in. They're putting them on Medicare. They're putting them on.
Yeah, he did beat it to death. I mean, it was a very, very. I mean, that was a good answer, too. I do feel like he was, it did feel like Trump was kind of holding back, being as aggressive as I think that. He would have been.
If it was somebody like a Gavin Newsom, all that stuff, which by the way, let's entertain that for a moment. It is possible for Democrats to do that. I don't know if you heard some of the discussion from the talking heads last night, the ones immediately after. This was the one that stuck out to me, Audio Sun by 12. This was CNN John King.
Who You could just they were all shocked. You could see it on their faces. Listen to this.
minutes into the debate and it continues right now. It involves party strategists, it involves elected officials, it involves fundraisers. And they're having conversations about the president's performance which they think was dismal, which they think will hurt other people down the party in the ticket. And they're having conversations about what they should do about it.
Some of those conversations include should we go to the White House and ask the President to step aside. Other of the conversations are about should prominent Democrats go public. with that call. because they feel this debate was so terrible. They do say in moments in the debate later the president got better and got his footing, but then at the end even his closing statement was a little They're freaking out.
They're absolutely freaking out. Audio stun by 13. They're freaking out. This is Van Jones. All of them were like this last night: MSNBC, CNN.
Listen. Um that was painful. I love Joe Biden. I work for Joe Biden. He didn't do well at all.
Um He he did not do well at all and he looked I'll give you the analysis. You kind of have the old man versus the con man. I can walk you through how I'm supposed to see it and say it, but I just want to speak from my heart. Um I love that guy. As a good man.
He loves his country. He's doing the best that he can. But he had a testament. to restore confidence of the country and of the base, and he failed to do that. And I think there's a lot of people who are going to want to see him.
consider taking a different course now. We're still far from our convention.
So speaking of the convention. Under the D and C s Call for convention. It is impossible to replace Biden against his will at the convention because of the pledged delegates. In order for those pledged delegates to be unfreed, so to speak, Biden has to willingly Uh withdraw. He has to withdraw.
Now, there is, and this is what Jennifer Van Laar talked with us about when she was on some months ago from Red State. There is a provision that allows the DNC to replace the nominee. After The convention In the event of quote, death, resignation, disability of a nominee. It's their article. For section G of the call, it says, quote, fill in a vacancy on the national ticket in the event of death, resignation, or disability of a nominee of the party for president or vice president after the adjournment of the national convention, the national chairperson of the DNC shall confer with the leadership of the United States Congress and the Democratic Governors Association, shall report to the DNC, which is authorized to fill the vacancy or vacancies.
Now, they don't actually get into, as Jennifer notes, they don't get into the specifics of. What disability, like how it would have to be validated or certified, or who makes that determination. But I mean, you could see from the way that Biden performed last night, this guy's not well, and he's not making the big decisions. The media. The what Out of all of the biggest gaslighting the media has done to us, Saying that Joe Biden is competent to lead is one of the worst because it has put our country at such a national security risk, it is anti-American.
This is just about fillating the Democrats' need for power. That's all it's about. And it looks like, you know, you can't tell me that the big fundraisers and the operatives and all of the consultants that they're not freaking out they're all freaking out today because the rest of America got to see this wasn't a cheap fake. This was real. He is struggling.
He is physically struggling. And I also don't want you to have so much pity for Joe Biden that you remove from this equation his pettiness. He is one of the pettiest people on earth and in politics. Don't forget he was livid. absolutely livid when he got passed over for Hillary Clinton.
He's not gotten over that. There is a weird dynamic between him And Barack Obama. In fact, there was a piece that came out. at the dately caller. Just just today.
that gets into Barack Obama's thoughts. On on the dynamic of the Biden family. He said that it is some and the quote is weird shh That's a true story. I tell you this because I think in the Daily Caller, it literally ran this. That's the headline.
The Obamas believe the Biden family is a total mess. He had once referred to President Biden's family dynamics as weird, sh, you know what. And this, of course, is after the story yesterday. That gets into how Michelle Obama is mad because Kathleen Buell, Hunter Ryden's ex-wife, how she was sidelined and treated by the family. That's not a family that's going to tell him to step down.
He's not going to listen. There's nobody in that family. That is going to say, Dad, it's time. That's not going to happen. He doesn't have that kind of network.
There's no one they're they're they're stuck with him. They got to deal with him So, it would, if he's going to get replaced, it would be after the convention. And I don't know, as Jennifer Van Law notes, I don't know how they come to the decision. or the determination as to Who says that he is has this disability that prevents him from running? Who says that he has this disability?
How is that validated? And, you know, the Daily Mail, she noted, there was this plot to replace Biden with somebody other than Kamala Harris last week. And they were strategizing how that was going to play out. There's a lot of stuff at play here. Keep an eye on Gavin Newsome.

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. Joe, you did such a great job. You answered every question. You knew all the questions. And let me ask the crowd.
What did Trump do? That's terrifying.
Okay. It's terrifying. You know what? I think one of the biggest stories of all of this is, too, because the media is now just acting like they just now notice that, you know, he's. Not with it.
Which is such a disservice. We these rat bastards have lied to us. We knew that they were lying to us. We saw this. Man couldn't even walk down the five little bitty stairs down to the flat surface to go and greet the moderators.
I mean, they were trying to be very surreptitious about it, and he couldn't even do it. That is not a guy that's well. That is so bad, guys. That is so bad. And there's two things at play here.
The Democrats' obsession with power that they will risk the national security of this country. in such a destabilized era. to keep this vessel of their power in office. That's number one. Number two.
His family is absolute They are. Your family does this to you. Your wife is trash, and your kids are trash. Your wife is a social climbing trash bag. Get mad at me for saying it because it's true, and y'all know it is.
Anyone whose family does this like this. Y'all are a bunch of attention-seeking white trash clowns. That's what this is. This is unbelievable. This is not a family that's going to sit down and say, Joe, it's time to step down because they're just as power hungry as the rest of the party.
Who would allow their spouse, the love of their life, who would allow them to go through this? Who would allow them to get humiliated on the national stage like Joe Biden has allowed Joe? What child would allow for their parent to be put through this? Not anybody that cares. Not a wife that cares.
No, she wants to wear her Dolce and Gabbana. She wants to be able to jet back and forth from France and to Delaware so she can be there for Hunter's trial. Hunter's not gonna say anything because he's too busy snorting coke off of hookers' backsides and marrying Instagram influencers. Come on. And then he had the audacity, and this was the other big soundbite of last night.
We need this too. Who said, You got the morals of an alley cat? Are you serious? You showered with your teenage daughter. Your son turned your daughter-in-law into a crack addict.
And you want to lecture everybody else. He's not off the hook. This degenerate Was more obsessed with seeking public office and public accolades than he was being a good husband and raising his family. And now the whole country's paying for it. We have a whole second hour on the way.

That's danalikesgold.com. They kept saying, you know, he had a cold. But this is the thing. When you have a cold, there's many things you can take for it.
We didn't know he had a cold until he stood up. A cold doesn't force you to lose your train of thought. A cold doesn't force you to just throw things out randomly that to many people made no sense. And so how long do we continue to act like that we didn't see what we just saw last night? I thought for many people, the word I keep hearing, it was very painful to watch.
Well I want to go. Wow, can you believe that they're saying that? Yes, I can. They knew it the whole time. They're just saying it now because you can see it.
Do not be fooled and do not think, oh wow, it's so bad these people are finally being honest. No, they knew this the whole time. They knew it the whole time. But it's just because you saw it. And they can't hide it from you.
I got a couple theories. First off, welcome back. Dana Ash with you, top of the second hour. Did Democrats just send him out there to expedite the switcheroo? Did they allow this to happen to expedite the switcheroo?
Because he apparently agreed to this without the DNC. His campaign apparently did it before the DNC could get involved. This is but For all of the discussion about Joe Biden being a an elderly pageant mom. And all this other stuff. Don't underestimate the pettiness of Joe Biden.
I cannot underscore this enough. He will hold on to that seat until they drag him out. Because these people on the left, and some people on the right, They think that they've got like a calling on the seat. They think that it is like their birthright. That's what they act like.
He thinks that this is his birthright, much in the same way that Hillary Clinton thought it was hers. He's mad that that it's it they went with Hillary before him. And Hillary was mad that they went with Obama before her. Remember, back in 2008, it was hers for the taking. She had done what she was supposed to do.
She went into Senate. She did all of that. She was raising her profile. And they said, now you need to step aside from this newbie out of Illinois. She was mad.
In fact, there was cheating in Texas. There was cheating in the Democratic Democrat primary Texas. Oh yes, there is a whole documentary about it. She was moving heaven and earth. Superdelegates were involved, all of it.
And then Biden got passed over in 2016. It wasn't that he didn't want to run. He was told not to run. And then I think between then and now, obviously, he's had some strokes. Plural.
So these people, Gail King's saying this. This is a signal to everybody else that it's all right to say why? Because Gail King is part of the inner circle. Gail King is best friends with Oprah Winfrey. Oprah Winfrey and the Obamas are like their thickest thieves.
They are that is part of his inner circle. They visit each other at their respective estates in Hawaii. They hang out in Montecito. They are close. For her to feel free to say this That is your sign that there's some shuffling going on in the back rooms there in the Democrat Party.
That's basically the Obama camp signaling: okay, we've done all we can do. We've done all we can do. It's Obama's Mission right now. to not look responsible for Joe Biden. And remember, the currency of these guys, Obama's currency is vanity.
He wants to look like the smartest guy in the room. This daily caller piece, and they were citing some Axios stuff too. He even they even said yeah There's a weird family dynamic with them. No one in that family is going to tell Biden to step down.
So now you're left with the Democrats now are trying to. They they have to. They they can't say that it was all cheap fake. I know it's deep fake, but we're going with Corrine Jean-Pierre's ruining of that phrase. They can't say that it was all a cheap fake.
We all saw it.
So now they have to be like, wow, it's so bad. They wanted to act like it was a one-off, always got a cold, but that was so dumb. Nobody believes that. I mean, they he has a cold a cold as I can't believe what I'm about to say this. Gail King was not wrong with that sentiment.
It's it's bad. It's so bad. MSNBC, audio sun by 20, full on losing their minds. Listen. He needed to settle Democrats.
Democrats, you know, they always talk about Democrats are bedwetters, and Democrats are always panicking. Yes, Democrats are always panicking. They're always scared, right? They're always thinking they're going to lose. Like, Democrats are very pessimistic.
This is just who they are, they're neurotic. But Joe Biden's job was to reassure them tonight. His job was to calm his party, to make them feel that, yes, I can do this. I have four more years in me. I have the ability and the stamina and the strength to do four more years.
He did not do that. He did the opposite of that. Wow. He made them more panicked. We all knew this.
Don't act like this is new. Don't act like this is new. You all knew this. Guys, they all knew it. They've all known it.
Remember, they've been shut up from interviewing this guy. They've been shut up from being at regular press conferences with this guy. My gosh, the White House Press Corps was filing a complaint yesterday because they were disallowed access to cover the debate like they had normally. Why? Because Democrats didn't want them to have access to Biden.
Biden couldn't handle it. He couldn't be down there in the scrum. He couldn't be in the spin room. Did you see any pictures of Biden in the spin room, by the way? No, because they didn't exist.
That's weird. Hell, you didn't even see any of surrogates down there. It was basically Fox News in CNN's basement. Just wild. It was just so these people, I got one more for you.
These people. doing this. Audio sound by 11. See you in. They're just like this is.
They don't know how to come back from this, guys. Listen. If anybody in America thinks that that was even close. to being a an okay debate by Joe Biden. I'm living in a parallel universe.
It was an unmitigated disaster for President Biden from the second he walked out. To the closing statement. The biggest issue for Democrats is abortion. And he couldn't give an answer. He gave an answer, three, he couldn't even give a coherent answer on the biggest issue for Democrats today.
I've heard from Leading Democrats across the United States, elected governors, congressmen who are texting me and saying, I'm worried I'm going to lose if Joe Biden's at the top of the table. Yep.
Now, I'll tell ya. They're shuffling back channel. And I was just explaining to you a previous hour. Jen Van Law has got a great piece over at Red State. She was on with us months ago, a couple of months ago, about this.
I mean, they could. I mean, they could. They they could theoretically switch him out. But they would have to be after the convention. And this is when they this is when they ac actually changed their bylaws to make this a reality.
They had to change their bylaws. They did this back in November for their 2024 convention. And it would have to happen after the convention. And that's that article, what is it, the article 4, Section G, and it's their convention call or call for convention. And under those bylaws, they can fill a vacancy on the national ticket in the event of death, resignation, or disability.
Now, the document, as she noted, is very vague on the disability details. Who certifies that? Who validates it? It's completely at somebody else's discretion. It's very vague on purpose.
So, you'll go through the whole convention, and it'll be Joe Biden, but then afterwards. It From all of the stuff that I'm hearing.
Now, let me wa let me caution you. Let's say that they do this. Let's say that you have the convention. Which could be a part of the plan all along. You're going through the convention.
You have to let Biden go out there and fail. You have to. Go right to the edge of total disaster to show everyone so you don't have people rebelling in the party. You don't want funders rebelling. You don't want your street agents rebelling.
You don't want your bundlers and your operatives and your consultants and your spinmeisters and everyone rebelling. It must look like they've done everything absolutely possible to satisfy having Biden on the ticket, but he just can't cut it because he just can't do it physically and mentally. That's why I think they allowed him to do this debate. This is all part of the plan. Don't act like this is Democrats, and this is what I fervently believe, actually.
This is not Democrats not knowing what the hell's going on. This is not Democrats who, oh my gosh, we overshot. No, this is part of the plan. It's gonna look like because America loves a comeback story. It's going to look like they're right on the cusp of failure.
And Republicans are going to feel real, real good. And they're going to, this will lull the GOP into a little bit of. complacency. They want you to feel like it's in the bag. You're going to see some crazy polls coming out after this debate.
Remember, that bump is temporary. And they're going to go through the convention, and you're going to have all the drama, and then. More and more, it's going to be evident it's just bad. After the convention. I think that there's probably a 50-50% chance at this point they will switch him out with Gavin Newsome.
It's not going to be anybody but Gavin. It's not going to be Kamala Harris. It's not going to be Gretchen Whitmer. Look at who has been in the press lately. Who was the person that had a very conveniently timed visit from head of state from China?
Who was it that has had these other heads of state come visit? Who is it that that went to Florida and has been presenting himself as next in line, but he's very careful about it. It's Kevin Newsome. Listen to this.
He was asked about this. He's playing this perfect. Audio sound by 23. He's playing this perfect. Listen to this.
You were out there getting a chorus of questions about whether Biden should step down. There is panic that has set in.
Well, there is panic that has set in among people who have watched this debate, who are Democrats, people who are strategists, and some even inside Democratic campaigns. Do you think it's unfounded?
Well, I think it's unhelpful, and I think it's unnecessary. We've got to go in, we've got to keep our heads high. And as they say, we've got to have the back of this president. You don't turn your back because of one performance. What kind of party does that?
Wow. It's been a masterclass. 15.6 million jobs. That's eight times more than the last three Republican presidents combined. The only thing he's...
Notice what he didn't say. Is it unfounded? It's unhelpful. But he didn't say it was unfounded. It's just unhelpful.
You're going to let one performance You gotta have the back of this president. No, that's not how this works. He's supposed to be for us, but whatever. You gotta have the back of this president. He's using a little bit of populist rhetoric here.
I mean, you don't do that. This is you don't do that as a party. What would you do with that? Oh, he's playing it real well. He's the white knight coming in.
Oh, no, you don't do it like that. Audio's done by twenty four. He's asked outright. Would you replace Biden? Listen to this.
And some people have speculated that you've been a pretty good spokesman for Mr. Trump or with Mr. Biden. Would you be ready to hop in the race should he bow out at any point? It's a non-sequitur.
I don't even understand the context of that. This is the President of the United States running for re-election. He's our guy. And that's part of the diversion tactic right to continue to sort of muddy the waters on all that and that's the problem. He's not even going to entertain.
It's just like I mean he's not even going to acknowledge the health issues. But notice what he's doing. He's putting himself out there in front of the cameras every second he can. Every second he can. He doesn't have to.
He's going out there and then because he's doing that, everyone, the media, everyone else is assuming, okay, this is maybe the guy who's and then they ask him about it, oh oh darry you, that's the well as a what would we be as a party? Gosh dang, look at him He's a team player, that Gavin Newsom. It's too transparent by half. But it's going to work on a lot of those people. That's part of the plan to keep the people in the Democratic Party from rebelling so that when they do switch to him.
They can go, Oh, you mean that guy was out there defending? Biden?
Well, that makes sense, I guess. You know, Governor, and he's been out there doing all that. This is all by design, you guys. This is all by design. And then the Democrat Party is going to be energized because there is a switch in the ticket.
Oh, they've got to really come together to make this happen. and then the honeymoon's gonna begin. Oh, you haven't seen a press honeymoon until you see that ticket switched out. We'll talk about that coming up. Maybe you've come across this.
If you had to go and get a prescription filled, you know, maybe it takes a really long time to get it filled, or maybe you're told by the pharmacy they don't have that in stock right now. You don't ever want to be without a medication that you need to get better.
So, do what I did and take control of your family's health with a medical emergency kit from the doctors at the wellness company.
Now, this is not a first aid kit, right? The kit is filled with essential doctor prescriptions that treat over 39 different medical issues. They have strong antibiotics for infections of all types, including pneumonia, strut throat, ear infections, all kinds of sinusitis, like sinus infections, like I always get. It's like having a little urgent care without the $75 copay right at your house. And you don't have to wait to see a doctor.
You don't have to wait in a waiting room. And everybody knows that's like one of the sickest places to be. You don't have to wait at a pharmacy. Every home should have at least one of these medical emergency kits. And they put it all together in your little kit.
They pack it all up and they ship it directly to you. I've used it myself. It several times myself. I ended up getting a sinus infection that turned into strep throat and I could not from the airport traveling, doing everything that I could do. And then, of course, my doctor's office was closed.
I did not want to have to go and wait into urgent care. I was too sick. And I went, I remembered I had my medicines. I went in, I took my medicines, and I was literally. And Kane remembers, I was like back on the road to better health.
And I was able to actually do my job and be on air the next day, which is incredibly important for you know what I do. You can actually visit TWC.health, that's TWC for the wellness company.health slash Dana and use promo code Dana and that'll save you 15%. It's super easy. It's all online. It takes like three minutes.
So visit TWC.health slash Dana and enter codana and that promo code Dana that gets you 15% off. Again, that's TWC.health slash Dana. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. A bomb squad deliberately burned down a Connecticut home after finding an enormous trove of fireworks inside.
You could have also brought them to me. Yeah, they found a ton of fireworks inside. And so they were commercial grade and they let it go in a controlled burnt.
Okay, so why? Why couldn't you just have removed it? They said that it was in a garage. They responded to this blaze. They found a significant amount of devices.
They said it was wired or control panel. And I don't know if they could have removed it because it's really close to these other houses. I was looking at some of the images of this. I mean, it's really close to some of these other houses. But they said that they were able to control it, keep water on it.
Gosh, I hope none of these other houses nearby got smoke damage. That's kind of. Also, let's see. LaCleed County Authorities accused a woman of spiking her husband's Mountain Dew with Roundup. She looks like the sort to do it too.
I was looking at her mug shot, man. She looks like a crazy lady.
Alright. This is Levin on Missouri. This woman, Michelle, she's 47. I don't believe you. No, this woman ain't 47.
Stop that. She owns a game shop next door to a spa. And apparently, she's been charged with first-degree domestic assault and armed criminal action. She has no bond, but she tried to poison her husband. with uh roundup She looks like she was nuts.
A man was sentenced to life for killing a friend who he believed was summoning Bigfoot to come eat him. Larry Sanders of Oklahoma and his pal Jimmy Knighton were out fishing, and then Sanders killed Nighton. And Sanders believed Nighton was summoning Bigfoot to eat him. He said that he spotted three Sasquatch on the riverbank, and the only thing that made sense is that Nighton had planned for the creatures to kill his friend. He goes, I acted out of survival mode.
So he was sentenced to spend this week, the rest of his life behind bars without the chance of parole. Wow, that is a made-up thing that he did as a way to cover his backside after the fact. That's what that was. Uh, let's see. The this woman crashed into an apartment building not once but twice, and then she set it on fire.
Wow, she really does not like that apartment building. It was in Adams County. 44-year-old Michelle Lopez was drunk. She struck the building and then she tried to set it on fire by burning envelopes with a lighter and then set them in against the occupied building. And they found the seven envelopes with burn marks.
She was taken into custody. These people are crazy. What's going on? And apparently some canned coffee is being recalled due to a possible deadly toxin? Ugh, the FDA put out the call.
It's all of the Snapchill L canned coffee. This is what happens when you don't drink black rifle coffee. When you drink this commie swill, you get botulism. That's what happens. They said that that's the toxin and it's deadly food poisoning.
So that's snap, whatever. Coffee. Stick with us. We got a lot more on the way. Debt can be an endless source of sleepless nights trapping you with sky-high interest rates on credit cards and loans.

That means he can take the life of the baby in the ninth month.
And even after birth, because some states Democrat run. take it after birth. Again, the governor, former governor of Virginia. put the baby down, then we decide what to do with it.
So he's in he's willing to, as we say, rip the baby out of the womb in the ninth month and kill the baby. Nobody wants that to happen, Democrat or Republican. Nobody wants it to happen. That is simply not true. The Roeby Way does not provide for that.
That's not the circumstance. Only if a woman's life is in danger, she's going to die. That's the only circumstance in which that can happen. But we are not for late-term abortion, period. Period, period.
Under Roe v. Wade, you have late-term abortion. You can do whatever you want, depending on the state. You can do whatever you want. We don't think that's a good thing.
We think it's a radical thing. We think the Democrats are the radicals, not the Republicans. That right there was. I think one of the most informative moments in the debate last night. Actually, I think that was the most informative moment in the debate.
And there's so much to break down from that answer. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you, bottom of the second hour. Here's why I say this: let me go back. Let me go back for a moment.
to the bill that uh Democrats brought forward in the Senate. It was the Women's Health Protection Act. Do you guys remember this bill? One of the reasons that I remember it so incredibly well is that it was co-sponsored by Raphael Warnock. Remember at the Warnock Senate race, and it was a big deal, and a lot of people were mad at me because, oh, I was like, who was it?
That I had said, oh, I don't care if he aborts a baby eagle. You know, at least he's changed, or if he aborted a baby eagle. He's talking about. How he's changed, and I know that this is money that's not going to go his Republican, Rafael Warnock's Republican opponent. uh football player my i'm filled with debate stuff right now I'm like that Spongebob episode where everything is out of my head except for breathing and fine dining.
It's just, you know, debate stuff right now. Anyway, long story short, they brought it up in the Senate and it only failed by one vote. One Vote. And every Democrat signed onto it. It was the Women's Health Protection Act.
I read this bill. It would have completely destroyed all state laws. regarding abortion and abortion funding. It would have removed the Hyde Amendment, which I think the Hyde Amendment is a joke anyway. Thank you, Lorraine.
God love you. Herschel Walker. Remember it was the Herschel Walker War Raphael Warnock race. This is when this law came front and center, or this bill came front and center. It was the Women's Protection Act.
I read through the whole thing. Because It removed all of the existing state protections. in terms of for cash for for taxpayer funding and any kind of uh any limits, limitations on abortion. It also what it did is it Remove the Hyde Amendment. The Hyde Amendment is kind of a joke because we all know that money is fungible.
It doesn't matter if the argument is: well, they don't use taxpayer dollars, but they're given. Planned Parenthood gets a half a billion taxpayer dollars every year. That's not a joke. All of this is publicly available in their financial report that they have to report every year. It's all on the internet.
Their last report was 2023 is out now. They get half a billion dollars in taxpayer money every year. And they say it's well, it's because for health services, et cetera. And again, a reminder: community health centers outnumber Planned Parenthood Clinics three to one in every single state. And they don't offer abortion.
They actually offer healthcare services and they offer a full suite of services. They actually do mammograms. They actually do real screenings. They also offer pediatric and they also treat men.
So stop. The Bill would have removed the height amendment, so taxpayer funded. It would have actually allocated more taxpayer funding. to Planned Parenthoods and abortion clinics. and it removed all limitations.
When I say that it allows This bill that quote unquote Women's Health Protection Act would have allowed abortion up until the moment of birth, that's not hyperbole. That's literally in the bill. I read it. It's in the bill. That's why it was that's why it was so shocking.
This came right after You had Virginia Democrats talking about how they believed An abortion up until birth, you know, for the life of the mother, which is that's not how that works. Not even for the life of the mother. They even dropped that phrase. And that's one of the things that helped propel Glenn Yunken. Because everyone thought that was kind of crazy.
And everyone knew at that point, that's not how that works. I mean, a woman's going to be working with her with her OBGYN. And if there's a problem that's so severe, it doesn't progress that far. That's not how it's like, these people have never had babies or vaginas, they have no idea how this stuff works. This and this Senate bill came right on the heels of that.
So that's why everybody started saying, wow, Democrats really support this because they did. All the Democrats in the Senate signed off on this. Guys, it was 46 to 48. That's how close this was.
So when Trump mentioned this last night, He Clear I think he was clearly coached on this. And that's smart. He mentioned this and recasts Democrats as being the ones that are out of sync with the American public because all of the surveys on this Senate bill. When I say the majority of Americans, I think it was 72, 72% of Americans did not support those extremes. And those were even Democrats that were surveyed.
That was reported on by USA Today. is also touched on by Axios. Uh, Teen Vogue had a piece on it. They were real mad. They that's the majority of people do not did not support those extremes.
So, Democrats have been trying to hit Republicans on abortion, and I think with that answer. And I understand the the minefield. that this issue is talking about it politically. Republicans are terrified. I want to caution people.
Mm-hmm. Don't Announce yourself as the bouncer for something and start pulling people's. Bona fides for pro-life because there is a different strategy going forward.
Now, do I agree with Trump on everything? No. Do I totally agree with him on this issue? No. But I understand his messaging on it.
He's trying to cast Democrats through this as being the extremist. And making the Republicans look more in step with the majority of voters, and he's doing this to grab those independents. It's weird because it's like a moderate move, but not a moderate move. When He's not, it's not a position that gives up ground. You're not giving up limitations.
You're not saying that the states can't control it because honestly, the pro-life movement has a way better. chance at protecting life. uh state by state than nationally right now. And because there's more conservative legislatures is why. He's not giving up any ground.
He just took over the messaging. That was a very smart move. And I think that there were people who watched that debate last night and they were like, Oh, like like independents, right? The same demo that Democrats have been trying to say, Oh, Republicans want you to use wire hangers and just get up there like you're unlocking a car. You know, just you know, get up there and you're you I mean, that's the that's the way that that's the language that they've been using.
Who was it that said wire hangers? It was a lawmaker, Kane.
Somebody actually said that. Remember, it was like last month or something. Yeah.
Was it Maxine?
Well, I can't remember who it was. It was somebody crazy. Yeah, I think it was. They've literally been saying this and they've been and they've been trying to Build on, you know, you had the judges' race, Supreme Court in Wisconsin. You had a couple of other elections where the Republican lack of messaging.
Played a role in not securing victories for the GOP. This changes it. This is very significant. Very significant.
Now on the issue of J six. This was the that was the other big question. And he just took that and he just he just destroyed it. I thought that was a very uh the way that he the way that he played that off was very interesting. This is Uh audio which audio soundbite is this?
Thirty? Yes, this is audio 7x30. Listen. You have 80 seconds left. My question was: what do you say to those voters who believe that you violated your constitutional oath through your actions and inaction on January 6, 2021, and worry that you'll do it again?
Well, I didn't say that to anybody. I said peacefully and patriotically. And Nancy Pelosi, if you just watched the news from two days ago, on tape to her daughter, who's a documentary filmmaker, they say. But she's saying, oh no, it's my responsibility. I was responsible for this.
Because I offered her 10,000 soldiers or National Guard. And she turned him down and the mayor of In writing, by the way, the mayor, in writing, turned it down, the mayor of DC. They turned it down. I offered 10,000 because I could see, I had virtually nothing to do. They asked me to go make a speech.
I could see what was happening. Everybody was saying they're going to be there on January 6th. They're going to be there. And I said, you know what? There's a lot of people coming.
You could feel it. You could feel it too, and you could feel it. And I said, they ought to have some National Guard or whatever. And I offered it to her, and she now admits that she turned it down. And it was the same day she was, I don't know, she can't be very happy with her daughter because it made her into a liar.
She said, I take full responsibility. Yeah, that was her daughter that did that. That was interesting. He also said, too, when he was asked, he's like, you know, on the subject of J6, he's like, on January 6th, we were energy efficient. And on January 6th, we had the lowest taxes ever.
He just, he reframed it. I think that was the most laser focus in terms of a response that I've ever seen Trump give. And maybe that's due to his lack of audience, that he was able to really focus more on that. that could have been. Maybe that actually ended up working for him.
as opposed to not working for him like we we thought may happen. While all this is happening, Joe Biden's speaking live and it's Yeah. And in the meantime. Gavin Newsom's out there. Quick note here, and I was looking for this a little earlier.
What happens to Biden's campaign funds? If He is, and we were talking about this earlier, it would have to happen after the convention. And it's still vague as to how it would happen or who validates what disability he has or doesn't have. If he's replaced by someone, what would happen to his his war chest?
Now the Wall Street Journal had noted some time ago that And this is from the campaign finance experts. They say that they can't just simply. Transfer his campaign cash to another candidate if he drops out. The only person that he could do that to, though, there's one exception, is Harris. She would just inherit.
the campaign war chest. And so If he were to drop out, she gets all the money.
So if they replace him with Newsom, it doesn't work that way. Although that presupposes that they follow the rules, which if you've watched these people at any point in your existence, you know that those laws don't apply to them. Just look at what happened with laundering opposition research through the media. Via Fusion GPS, and then breaking the law to get a surveillance. Uh, warrant from a FISA judge and not disclosing who paid for this information that's being used to substantiate the warrant.
Right. So I don't know. Like, why would you think if they don't pay attention to national law, why the hell would they pay attention to laws that they themselves made up in their own party? That's my whole thing.
So, I don't know. We'll see how that goes out. The other point too, and I'm going to just put this on the table and we can talk more about this. What is one of the big things that Democrats have been blasting Republicans over? They keep saying, oh my gosh, you're a racist.
Black voters aren't going to want to vote for Republicans, you know, because Democrats believe that they own the patent on black skin. But what happens if Democrats Switch up Biden. and they don't pick the woman of color. and instead they picked this like douchey looking white guy from California. Uh What does that look like?
If you kick out the Sitting. Yeah.
female VP of color. and you put in her spot Gavin Newsome. What does that look like? That's just let's set that on the table for you guys. Just think about that.

It's his life mission to make bad decisions. Yeah.
It's time for Florida Man. How much is a truck a Dirt. Truckload of dirt. Not very much. A few hundred bucks.
Really? Is that just for like the labor and the gas? Here's Yeah, kinda. Here's why I'm asking this. This guy in Florida.
stole Three thousand dollars worth of dirt. Three thousand dollars. Is it like a special dirt?
So I say this to someone. Look, my family, they're all rural. If you need dirt, you just go to one of them backfields and you get you some dirt. You know what I mean? Like, that's so this is a foreign concept to me.
Well, there are some places that process dirt. And if you need to grade your property and get a couple tons of dirt on there to grade it properly, you want that processed dirt. And it's a couple hundred bucks a truck. I need that processed dirt. I need that pro that good process dirt is what I need.
Clean dirt. I don't want any nails or crazy stuff in it. That makes sense.
So the victim's a field. I mean, again, I say this as somebody who, oh, you go get you some loads of dart from that field back there. I mean, literally, that's how it went. The victim is the field operations supervisor for Lee Acres Municipal Services Improvement District. They said the employee noticed eight to ten trucks.
They looked like they were ready for dirt to be loaded, and they said there's no authorization. It took two to three months to get a contract. He didn't recognize the men trying to move it. And one guy was arrested, charged with grand theft. He's in the Lee County jail.
But that's a why would you steal dirt? Of all the things to go to jail over.
Okay. Hey, dirt doesn't grow on trees. True. I've heard of taking your child to work day, like taking your kid to work, but this is kind of ridiculous. A Florida man brought his five-month-old son to a home burglary attempt and He even set his baby down so he could pull a knife on the homeowner.
Corey Matthews, 22, was arrested on charges including aggravated assault and child neglect. At St. Petersburg police said Monday evening He held his baby in a car seat as he acted as lookout for another man trying to break into a home. Matthews yelled upon seeing the homeowner. The other suspect fled.
The homeowner followed Matthews down an alley where he put the baby on the ground, threatened the owner with a knife. And he was still carrying the baby when police later apprehended him. The child is in custody of the guys of its the mother has the baby now. Oh my gosh. How does that happen?
How are oh man, okay, all right. Uh okay. A uh Florida man shot down a Walmart drone. I'm actually surprised that this is the only story that I've seen on this because there are a couple of other stories that I've seen that are similar to this. Yeah, because they made another guy shut down.
And I think because it's the drone, somebody else's property, and technically, Depending on the altitude, the airspace, you can't claim that it's in your airspace. There's like a lot of restrictions that go along with it. We have a lot more on the way. A whole other hour coming up. Stay with us.
Switcheroos, go to some more. I agree with Annie Oakley, who said, I would like to see every woman know how to handle guns as naturally as they know how to handle babies.
Now, I myself regularly conceal carry a nine millimeter.
Now, that said, not every woman is like me, has had the hours of training that I've had, or feels comfortable around firearms due to years of use, or maybe they're by a gun-free zone. I'd like to change that what I can while encouraging self-defense at the same time.
So, this is where Burna comes in. It's kind of like a starter weapon. It's they make a non-firearm firearm. I like the idea of incredible force sending chemical irritants towards a threat as an additional option for women. And the Burna SD model shoots chemical irritant projectiles, 68 caliber rounds, that can deter threats in their tracks up to 50 feet away.
I mean, it is hard. Easy target acquisition, zero recoil. Burna is legal in all 50 states. There's no background checks, no permits required. It's shipped directly to your door.
Gun-free isn't applicable to Burna. It's great for wherever guns are banned. Visit Burna.com. dot com slash dana for ten percent off that's by r n a dot com slash dana Look, there's so many young women who have been, including a young woman who just was murdered and he went to the funeral. The idea that she was murdered by an immigrant coming in, they talk about that.
But here's the deal: there's a lot of young women being raped by their in-laws, by their spouses, brothers and sisters, by it. Thank you. Like in your family? Your son being in your Daughter-in-law? He so I after I listened to that several times, I finally figured out what he was doing.
First off, welcome back to the radio program Daniel Lash with you. You can listen coast to coast. You can watch the simulcast channel 347 DirecTV. Uh find us on X and Rumble and all that good stuff.
So do you so how Trump changed the narrative and brought so many things back to immigration. He brought Uh A lot of the uh Even abortion stopped back to immigration. Uh he brought almost everything back to immigration, which was smart. The J6 thing, how he handled that. This was Biden trying to do the same thing.
and it didn't work.
So what he was trying to do is say, You know, he talks about these women who are being raped by people coming across the border illegally. He was trying to say that, well, there are other people who get raped by those who aren't coming across the border illegally and they need to be able to have, even though it's less than 1% of all abortions, by the way, and that's according to Planned Parenthood Zone figures. He was trying to do that, but it was just a train wreck. That was the dumbest way to do it. Did you see Trump's face?
I could not stop getting screenshots. I kept I was in one text group and I just was pummeling them with screenshots of I couldn't help it. Like when there at some point there was a moment Do we have the cut where Joe Biden just stopped talking? For like However, long that was, when was that? It was like right in the beginning.
Yeah, he just stopped. Let me pull this up. What cut was that? I'm sorry. Cut two.
Cut two. Cut two thousand. No, that's the, he beat Medicare to death. No, that was. That's the one.
Were Biden just stopped talking? Yeah, for like a couple seconds.
Okay, go ahead and play it. I thought it was a different one. Go ahead. All those things we need to do, child care, elder care, making sure that we continue to strengthen our health care system, making sure that we're able to make every single solitary person eligible for what I've been able to do with the COVID, excuse me, with dealing with everything we have to do with. Okay.
Mm-hmm. If we finally beat Medicare.
So, and that's when Trump's like, yeah, you beat it to death. There were a couple of other moments. There was another moment where he started his answer like that. And I can't remember what question it was. 'Cause I think I was too busy going, oh my gosh.
And Trump looked at him. And he was trying It was that face you make. Think to yourself for a moment: the face that you make when you're trying not to be a smart ass, but it's really hard. You know, when you're like, Holy Spirit, will you please come put a hand over my mouth? Please.
And you make that, you just, you know, it, and Trump will turn and looked at him, and I recognized that look. I was like, I know what you're doing. It it was just A disaster. And then that's when Trump was like, Yeah, I don't know what he said at the end of that sentence. I don't think he knows either.
I don't think he knows what he said. That was as close as he got, but Biden was just kept going loser and sucker and all this stuff and you know, it it's um He When it that this answer was just insane. I knew what he was trying to do, but he just didn't. He just didn't do it. Yeah.
He also, let's see, this was a good answer. Audio Sun by 33. When Biden was talking about job creation, this is Trump's response.
Well, everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us. We got hit with. COVID, and when we did, we spent the money necessary so we wouldn't end up in a Great Depression, the likes of which we had in 1929. By the time we finished, we did a great job.
We got a lot of credit for the economy, a lot of credit for the military, and no wars, and so many other things. Everything was rocking good. But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess. He created mandates that was a disaster for our country. But other than that, we had given them back a country where the stock market actually was higher than pre-COVID, and nobody thought that was even possible.
The only jobs he created are for illegal immigrants and bounce back jobs, the bounce back from the COVID. He has not done that.
Well, and don't forget, the only thing I wish he would have mentioned there was government jobs. Because remember, we had this, this was last week, the biggest job creation, the biggest sectors for job creation were government, number one. And then people who came here not legally. Number two. That's the Those are the two biggest job creators.
So people who weren't even actually legally allowed to be here and then the government. Interesting. That's I know.
So The we've talked over You know, whether or not there could be a switcheroo, whether or not whether it's between Kamala Harris or Gavin Newsom, that's going to be a fight for the ages with the DNC with the DNC. I don't even, and nothing's going to happen until after the convention if they do anything. And Biden's never going to let it go. Just as ignorant as it is for his family to abuse him, it is equally as ignorant for Joe Biden to abuse the nation. By remaining in this spot, knowing that he cannot do the job.
But that's what it's always been about for Biden. This is a man who sacrificed his family at the altar of his. Ego, his incessant desire to have higher and higher political office. That's how you end up with drug addled kids. You know, grandkids by all different sorts of baby mamas.
That's how you end up with this problem.
Well, how you end up with this issue. And then you had this. Oh, I gotta play this. This is audio sound byte. This is seventeen.
This this is Jill talking to Joe. Joe, you do. such a great job. You answered every question. You knew all the problems.
And let me ask the crown. What did you do? You knew all the facts, Joe. He smiled like somebody was applauding him for eating all of his applesauce, real good. Oh my god.
You drank all your insurer, you ate all your applesauce. Good job, Joe.
So good for you And then she walked him off stage. Because he needed help. That was actually really shocking too. You said something. He's speaking live today.
Can you pull me up some of the ones where he's already marble mouthed and can't talk? I dropped him in the audio channel. This is like all brand new stuff, like just in the past hour. where he was speaking and he was already blah blah blah blah blah blah listen. My statement at times is that I've never been more optimistic about American future up in the air.
What? Juan, can you hit us again? I stay here today. I've never been more optimistic about American future in my whole career. Wait, what is he on?
Did you know what he's on?
Something about we're all like, what did he say? I don't something about that. Like our production people are like, what is he doing? Juana Kane are like, why did you say He wasn't feeling well either because he was coughing a bunch, too. Do we have that?
And there were several of those. Steve, do you know what he said? You're an audio guy. You couldn't You have magic ears. You d you c all I heard was Let me see if I can.
I don't mean that Let's hear it. Don't we have any CSS? I stand here today. I can honestly say I've never been more optimistic about America's future in my whole career. I think he was saying he's never been more optimistic about America's future in his entire career.
What's funny it's fifty plus year career. Uh it somehow he needs four more years. to get it done. It was like he was skipping a rock over the water. He was just Yeah, I did say see.
The TV audience didn't hear that. He was playing, yeah, he was playing the who woke and fooled again. See us at you know when David what's his face, puts his glasses on. Sunglasses on. Yeah, don't we have like How it would be actually ridiculous if we had a whole wall of like monitors that don't do anything except for optics.
And then we had like all of our audio equipment and we had like a whole team of like, you know, neo code breakers. And they were sitting there listening and they're, We got it, we got it, we know what he said. He said, That's what he said. I was gonna make a Joke, a religious joke, and I didn't do it. And I feel like I should get a lot of accolades.
Yeah, it's smart. You know where I was going, don't you? I think so. You didn't? I think so.
I was right there. Oh my gosh. So, anyway. Hmm. The uh couple of things couple of things 'cause we got uh SCODUS.
So the chevron doctrine was totally just trashed. Basically, the Chevron doctrine is that these agencies cannot just sit here and act as though they, these government, these bureaucratic agencies full of these unelected people cannot just make a law for themselves. It has to be Congress that does it. And in absence of that, they still can't take it upon a responsibility themselves to do it.
So that's what the Chevron doctrine is. And that was trashed. And that is like the third or fourth. just this this is like the third rule in this term that just Trashes it. And out of all of the Supreme Court decisions, or out of all the court decisions, even looking at the appellate court.
That's a handful of decisions that are just slamming the overreaching administrative state.
Some people are saying the administrative state's been destroyed. They're right. That this effectively is the stake in the heart of it.
So, what does this mean for the ATF? Ah! What does it mean? I don't know. You know what also it means?
Remember how I got so mad about the phosphate stuff and my dish detergent? It's the little things in life that make me happy, right? Not having to change my light bulbs all the time, having a nice light. Because I hate some of the light options that are out there. And everybody, and they're getting ready to do this for air conditioners.
You know how air conditioners are so much more expensive? Ours just went out and we had to replace it this week. And I died and I came back to life. And then I died again. And then I came back to life.
They're so expensive because they have all these new restrictions and blah, blah, blah. They make it so much more like the light bulb thing. That's like thousands of dollars extra for people a year. The phosphates and the dish detergent, they make it to where your dishes are crappy after you run them through one cycle, all this other stuff. Those agencies can't just do stuff like this anymore.
You can't just like make up a rule arbitrarily.
Well, let's see here. I'm going to screw everyone over by giving them crappy light bulbs. It's like a. a weird, you know, uh adult swim show. Really, where the bad guys government making up stupid laws that we all have to live with.
That actually would be a great show, but it's real life. That's the problem. Just animating real life. And so But now this effectively you know kind of guts this. it uh takes a lot of it away.
It takes a lot of this away.
So I'm very happy with this ruling, but I don't know how quickly that goes you know into effect. And then a lot of the J six stuff, there was this ruling regarding some of these the J six cases. And this, of course, is going to affect Um a lot of the Other You know, like the Trump, because the Trump immunity case, it was the Fisher v. U.S., it was a 6-3 vote. And it really, it's the federal obstruction statute, which they charge like 300 some odd J6 defendants.
Barrett, Amy Coney Barrett, joined Sodomayora and Kagan to dissent, which I thought was very interesting. Very interesting. And Monday's the last day for decisions, so we're going to get the Trump immunity on Monday, and then you've got a couple of other things that's going to be coming up on Monday, too. But it was the. In the Fisher case, the Supreme Court was taking the federal obstruction statute and require they were narrowing it down and to demand evidence that.
You know, the defendant at least tried to, you know, impair. Stuff or obstruct like an official proceeding or just something to that effect. In fact, This was. I'm sorry, I pulled this up. To prove a violation of Section 1512 C two, the government must establish that the defendant impaired the availability or integrity for use in an official proceeding of records, documents, objects or, as we earlier explained, other things used in the proceeding or attempted to do so.
So they're they're demanding uh actual evidence, which is kind of weird to say.
So, very interesting. Two good rulings, two very good rulings today. Our partners over at ReadyWise, you want to always be prepared for no matter what happens, and ReadyWise can help you do that.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. So North Korea publicly executed a 22-year-old dude for listening to K-pop. That happened. It's part of Pyongyang's ruthless crackdown on outside information and culture, according to South Korea.
They said that the young man was publicly executed because he had listened to 70 South Korean songs, watched three films, and apparently distributed some of them.
So they killed him. I mean that's the country where you can only literally have like one type of haircut. Right, you know, you only get one, or like for dudes, you get like one or two types of haircuts. For women, you get like four or five, I think that's about it. I I don't know.
Texas hospital is reportedly the first in the US to use holograms for doctor patient visits. It's the Crescent Regional Hospital 13 miles south of Dallas. They've installed a holo box 3D system. It projects a hologram of a doctor so they can perform real-time consults with patients. At a clinic 30 miles away, you know, you could just do a DM Zoom thing.
Or a Skype call or a FaceTime. It does so that way you don't have to go to their holo box. If you're just sitting there in front of a damn hologram, it's not like they can sit here and, you know, what's the point of that? This is stupid. Am I wrong?
Oh, return yet. Yeah, like they can't do. They're like, oh my gosh, we're so happy to bring some of this tech to you. They can't do anything more than if it was a FaceTime.
So goofy. I don't know. I don't get it. Am I being too harsh? No, never.
Why? I would just think if you eat something called Uncle Frog's mushroom gummies, something's gonna happen to you. This company is apologizing to people who have been hospitalized across Australia. They said it wasn't our intention after you had unexpected toxicity and all kinds of hallucinations. It's called Uncle Frog's Mushroom Gummies.
What did you think was going to happen? Yeah.
Yeah, it sounded like they did the job. Like it was, you know. But all these people have had to go to the hospital. They've recovered, but they had to issue an apology. We're sorry that you didn't know our mushroom gummies were going to make you just trip beans.
We didn't. We're sorry. What did they think is gonna happen? Let's see. Let's.
Oh, a New Jersey man trying to warp beachgoers about a storm got struck by lightning and it killed him. That's so. Oh, get off the beach when it's lightning and thundering. Just get off the beach, get off the beach, get off the beach. That should be a warning to you.

That's the biggest lie that is a six-handicap of all. Oh, is it eight-handicap? Yeah.
Yeah.
I've seen you swing, I know you swing. Let's not act like children. President Trump, we're going to. Let's not act like children. They started arguing about golf.
Oh my gosh, they just started arguing about golf. He's like, Yeah, I've seen you swing, I know you're swinging, I've seen it. A senior swing. I know it. What was this whole can you carry your back?
Like you can barely breathe right now. Have you do you hear you? Oh my gosh. Welcome back to the show, Dana Lash. I got to do a real quick check.
Everybody's all right, right? Because some of you guys were drinking every debate square, and I think it got filled like. Within the first half hour. And I Some of you, I just want to make sure everybody's okay, right? Because some of you guys were showing, like, oh, I'm stocked, I'm ready for the.
debate drinking game and I'm like, y'all are gonna die. Like my expression whenever they said that was Joe Biden's face whenever he'd freeze.
Okay. Man. Oh, by the way. Uh There's Hang on. I'm trying not to get it out of my mouth without bursting out laughing.
There's a new nickname. That Biden came out, literally, this happened. Just now. This is from RealClear Politics. Biden rolls out a new nic new nickname for his opponent.
Donald Herbert Hoover Trump. No. What? What in the wood? That's not real, is that real?
Yeah.
You really do that? Yeah, it's real. I guess the jerk store was taken. Like the hell? What is.
Yeah.
How's Trump going to recover? Wow, Donald Herbert, Hoover, Trump. I think only. people that are Biden's age and maybe people who read history are going to understand that. Only people who read history are going to understand that.
Wow. Um Okay. It just is getting dumber. It's getting dumber. I don't think I really, really want to just caution you guys.
The next Because we've got 130 days till the election. It's gonna get stupid crazy. First off, you have people that are not just going to allow Republicans to win, right? They're not going to allow it. It's not going to happen.
They don't want it to happen. That's number one. Number two You have Democrats that are just not going to let you push Kamala aside, and Democrats that are not going to let Kamala ascend, and they're going to want Gavin. And then you got Biden who's not going to go anywhere 'cause he's digging his old man feet in. I don't know.
It's gonna be crazy. This is going to be crazy. I don't it's a very un On um precedented time. I think. With all of this.
And I still again maintain. That I I don't Uh everything what's gonna happen is after the convention. That's when everything's gonna kick off. after the Democrat Convention. Up until then, it's just going to be back and forth.
It's going to be palace intrigue. It's going to be pettiness, et cetera. Up until then. After that, Katie bar the door. After the Democratic Convention, Katie, bar the door.
And they're having the convention is in August, so it's August 19th through the 22nd. And uh it's gonna be wild. And they It that it'll it'll that will happen and then afterwards that's some of the theories are that that's when they'll move to replace him. And they can. They just can't swing over.
Biden's Warchest. And they do have delegates. They've got, they had super delegates. It's a really weird thing, the way that the party is structured. And they try to change some of it.
And I think we have, I think, what is it? Steve Grab Nicole Wallace talking about some of this because just a quick note, it's. The Democrat Convention and their delegates are not like the Republican delegates. They had superdelegates. It's one of the ways that Hillary Clinton was actually able to get the nomination over Bernie Sanders because Bernie Sanders actually had more pledges than Hillary Clinton did, but Hillary Clinton had more superdelegates, and superdelegates can actually swing it one way or the other.
I mean, it's total chaos. They did change some other things in their bylaws after that because there was such. Uh outrage. I When, because a lot of people thought that Sanders was robbed, which he was, to be honest. But listen to this: this is Wallace talking in like 50 seconds.
what that looks like. Listen. That's a fantasy saying that's you know, you either need to write the ship or do the thing that's not going to happen, which is to replace him on the ticket. I, I mean, I. I don't think that's an option.
The fact that people are talking about it, if it's not an option, only seeks to further weaken the perception, weaken the standing of President Biden. The question is whether you're hearing that it is an option, that there is some violence. It's legal. I mean, I spoke to an election lawyer. It is legal.
And the way it happens is Joe Biden releases his delegates ahead of the convention. And you can't do it on the first vote. But I think on the second vote, they can go somewhere else.
So it is legal. It is possible, and I think when people say it won't happen, it's because they think Joe Biden would never do it for the reasons Joy already articulated. He's the only person. who beat Trump. And he believes, and he has some reason to believe this, that he's the only one who can.
So you have like about 15% of the delegates that are in the DNC that are super delegates, and they don't have to hold. Uh They're they're they're like automatically seated and they don't have to they they're They don't they're not held to the same restrictions that regular pledged delegates are held. uh to which they are held. And Biden already has. Excuse me, I'm just looking up some of my notes.
Biden already has Um Basically, 99% of the pledge delegates, anyway.
So I don't even think, even if you did the super delegate stuff, I don't think that that matters. And I'm bringing this up just in case, you know, people think, well, there's still a chance with the delegates. They have for the DNC, you it's like 1,907 One thousand 976 delegates that you have to have in order to get the nomination. Biden has like over 3,800.
So it's done. The other candidates combined with seven. Combined seven with another 36 uncommitted.
So he controls like 99% of the delegates. And then you have the super delegates, and that there's only 739 of those.
Now, The 739 of those again, it's like 15%. The fact that he has so many pledge delegates already, and the super delegates don't have to be pledged, right? It's automatic seating, they don't have to be pledged.
So that's a different thing. That's a again, going back to the Hillary Clinton-Bernie Sanders thing, they tip the scales for Clinton over Sanders.
So. When you look at Biden having pledged, and this means they're locked up, 3,894 delegates, even if you had 739 superdelegates that wanted to switch it up, that's nothing. That's a drop in the bucket. He already has all this locked up.
So even if they were to vote, and they can only vote, I think, the second ballot, even if they were going to. Vote against him and oust him, it's not, it's inconsequential because he's already got pledge delegates locked up.
So if he's if he refuses to leave, Then they can't do anything until after the convention.
Now, after the convention, I don't know how they're going to make that work.
Someone had said, let me pull this up because I noted this, someone was saying that they thought Joe Biden was the most important person in politics right now. And I don't know who to properly attribute that to because it was something I saw flying by, and I was like, that's actually a good point. And it's a good point because I think she's the only person that could actually. get in his head and tell him it's time to step back. And she's not going to do it.
'Cause she enjoys being first lady. She likes the accolades that come with that. She knew look, this woman, don't think that she doesn't. She knows exactly what she's doing. This is the woman who let him sacrifice his family to seek public office because she liked all the stuff that came with being the man married to the per who has that title.
I mean, she likes it.
So I um I don't know. He's not going to withdraw. It's not going to happen. Do you remember that? When back in 1968, and there was a Time magazine piece.
That talked about in 68 LBJ. He was the front, he was the incumbent. He was the frontrunner for the nomination for the Democrat Party. He. Said that he's not going to seek or accept the party's nomination, and that came because he was about to lose New Hampshire to Eugene McCarthy.
And then you had the VP who was nominated, and then he ended up losing to Nixon. That was Huber Humphrey, who ended up losing to Richard Nixon. And so And that was after RFK. He lost to Nixon after that was the same campaign season that RFK was shot and killed in Los Angeles. And so.
Uh that's the only time and that was a huge shock at the time. Because he was he it wasn't gonna it Yeah. I know it wasn't gonna happen. He spread the tea leaf, so to speak.
Now, remember, there's the virtual nomination that they're doing. This is one of the things that the Biden-Harris people were doing ahead of time to kind of lock everything up. They had, this is from, properly attributed, this is from Reuters. Remember, they were trying to bypass the Ohio law because the Democrat Party was messing up stuff in Ohio. They wanted to do a because they have a scheduled nomination that kicks off their Chicago convention that begins on August 19th.
And then they wanted to do a virtual nomination.
So they could set all the delegates up to get going on this. You know, pretty much immediately.
So he would have all of the 3,800 some odd delegates that are pledged to him to be with him on the first round.
So. There Long story short, The Democrat bylaws governing how they replace a candidate due to a disability, that is what. Would come into play in order to replace him, and it's not going to happen until after the convention. And then it comes down to, because the laws are vague on this, Jennifer Van Law has a piece specifically on this bylaw change at Red State. And she notes that there's not a lot that gets into what the disability is, what it could be, who makes that certification, who does all that, because they don't have it specified.
And they just changed that in November. November of last year, that's when they just changed it. and they made it very nonspecific. Very interesting. So Everything, this is all going to be palace intrigue.
You're going to see a lot of Gavin Newsome. I think that you're going to see more Kamala Harris, too. Coming up in the weeks to come. Don't you think so, Kane? I think that they're going to try to put her out there, her people, to make the case that she's got to stay.
And she's also the only one per finance law, campaign finance law, that can take Joe Biden's campaign war chest, should he get out of office? He's the only. only one that can do that if he uh gets out of if he leaves, if he decides he's not gonna accept the nomination or he's not gonna go.
So she was the only one who could take it. I don't know what they would have to do to change that. In order for Newsome to do it.
So we actually may have to have Jennifer on next week to maybe specifically ask her about that. Because that's one thing that I have not seen. And I don't think anybody has an answer on, because that I think requires a change in campaign finance law.
So that means you're looking at Congress. But but then again, to muddy it up more, When have they ever followed the law? Guys, when do they ever follow the law? Million dollar question.
So like I said, you're going to see a lot more Newsome. You're going to see a lot more Harris. And Biden's not dropping out. Not dropping out. Not at all.
He's not going anywhere. And if you're I'll add this one last thing. Let's say that they replace whoever they replace, if they get by not after the convention and they replace them with somebody, you're going to see a honeymoon period with the press. And that's like a cutie way of me talking about like an absolute propaganda op. unlike anything that you have ever seen since.
Maybe like wartime propaganda from World War II. You're going to see a push on that, unlike anything that you've ever seen. Yeah.
I will say there is A danger. To have Harris go up against Trump. I actually think it is less because hardcore Democrats don't like Kamala Harris. Gavin Newsom, though, for many people, is kind of an unknown, and they could make him look like some white knight coming in. And he can be very suave and he knows how to play the part.
He's a very dangerous dude. I mean, I think he is as as Marxist as all get out. That actually, depending on the media assist. That could be a threat. Telling you, we're going to talk more about that going into next week.
But we have Trump who's expected to be in Virginia today. He's rallying with Glenn Youngkin today. Glenn Young, the governor of Virginia, who terms out a lot of people have suggested that he's good VP material, he's in a swing county with Glenn Young today. Very interesting. Follow Dana on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts, because knowledge is your ultimate superpower.
Mr. President, how I performed tonight? That he th he says they think they did well. Wow. I tell you what, that's You do?
You do think you did well? Oh my gosh. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. Ooh, ooh, ooh.
So, uh It's going to be interesting to see the post-debate polling. How much you want to bet? Democrats, the mainstream media, they're not going to make a lot of um Not going to make a lot of hay over the polling coming out of this because it's going to be disastrous for Biden, I think. Very much so. All right.
Kane, today in stupidity. All right, this is Biden. One, I just found this. He's. Nickname for Donald Trump.
Oh, you got it. America's flat on its back.
So I told Chump But it was just one of two presidents in American history who left office with fewer jobs than he started. Herbert Hoover was the other one. That's why I call him Donald Herbert Hoover Trump. Guys, that's horrible. It's so sticky.
That's literally the worst nickname I've ever heard. Why do people try? You're not going to out-Trump Trump. No. Why do people try to do that?
It's just not going to work. Folks. This is a big week, and it's going to get bigger and bigger as we get closer and closer to the election.
So, have a wonderful weekend. I will be back behind the mic with you Monday. Find us at Substack, Facebook, YouTube, like and subscribe. Have a great weekend.
