The Secretary has laid out a objective of obviously getting our deficits down to 3% of GDP. Through strong economic growth, through the tax policy that we want to extend that the president put forward, I believe that's one piece of the puzzle that we must go do. But right now, we are not going to address the key drivers of spending that will make it impossible for the president and the secretary to achieve that objective. Bond markets are on a knife's edge. You know that and I know that.

And that is necessary for the free flow of capital to have that economic growth. If we continue to allow Medicaid to consume our budget and allow us to continue to drive that budget up so deficits go up, then we're not going to be able to achieve those objectives. Medicaid right now is now a trillion-dollar higher baseline than when we came in under Biden. And one of the things people aren't talking about, it's all the fraud that's endemic in Medicare. I mean, there's so much fraud.

And I mean, let's to say nothing. to say nothing about The Uh issue with the illegal immigration and how That's all. Compounding this further. I mean, it's crazy. I mean, it's just, you know, it's a nutty thing to think that we can't.

cut like waste, fraud and abuse, which is all this has ever been. And Democrats, and then you have Republicans too, are freaking out about all of this. Because they don't know how to explain getting less money. To their districts. They always want to look like they're bringing home the bacon, right?

That's the whole pork barrel spending politics. Welcome to the program, Dana Lash, with you. We're at the top of this. First hour on Thursday, POTUS is wrapping up his Middle East tour. and there were some commitments scored apparently as well as, I guess, some investment deals, and we'll see how all that is.

I mean, the thing is, is that you can have You can have UAE, you can have anybody, you can have all of these people. Invest, quote unquote, invest, you know, as much as you As much as you want, but if you're not fixing the problems here with deregulation, then all of this is stupid. I w where by the way, why doesn't uh Why don't Republicans, send Chip Roy out more. to talk about this stuff because he can message it. He messages it quite well.

But the problem is, of course, you have some big spenders within the GOP who don't want him to talk because it makes everything harder for them. I'm not happy with this stuff. And I know people are like, well, you know, you got to compromise. I'm so damn tired of hearing that from people because I've heard that my entire life. Oh, we've got to compromise.

Like as though compromising with people, with some of these big spenders, is going to somehow get us to the point of fiscal sanity. You know, and it's not going to. It never has. It never has. So I'm just.

I'm a little aggravated about. The state of things because I don't, I mean, I'm not really, I don't see any cuts, I'm not seeing any savings, I'm not seeing any of this stuff. And I don't know, where's the RNC? We heard so much about the RNC, they're worthless. Is Lara Trump still running the RNC?

Who the hell's running the RNC? I mean, I would just think if you're running the RNC, if I was the daughter-in-law running the RNC, I would be damn sure that every resource I had was out there to make sure this agenda got passed. And I don't see it. Because you have midterms coming up. I would be tying people's support.

from the administration. and report and support from the RNC, I would absolutely be tying that to, okay, well, how did you vote on tax cuts? How did you vote on this issue? How did you vote on that issue? I mean, that's exactly.

how I would be working this thing.

So I don't know where they're at. I got friends that work in politics and they're all over the nation and I they're not seeing them in their states either. This could be this I mean it's It just is, it's incredibly frustrating.

So we can have all this investment while we want to, but when you're not changing things, here with domestic policy, that is a major issue. When you're not changing it domestically, when you have the same Biden level regulations and the same Biden level spending and none of that's being remedied, you are going to have the same problem over and over again. And I just think that that's insane to think that we're just going to be able to change something top down. and that that's going to fix the issue. This issue predates it.

It's longstanding. And again, too, you've seen the people freaking out over any kind of proposal of austerity. We talked about Greece yesterday and how people rioted and everybody across Europe and Democrats and even Republicans saw that. We're like, oh my gosh, we can't We can't Can't do that. We're not ever going to be able to.

We're not ever going to be able to do something like that.

So it's something that we're going to have to. I don't know. Is the right ready to have a discussion about it? I don't know. I don't know.

They've got to be comfortable being on the offense. And they're not. Republicans suck at offense so bad.

So bad still. To this day, that's never changed. Like for instance, Medicaid. Democrats are trying to make it to where you cannot remove people who are not legally in the country off of Medicaid. Off of Medicaid.

Huge issue. This is part of the waste, fraud and abuse. It is a significant portion of it. And we went state by state yesterday. Because remember how one of the proposals, and again, it's all draft with the reconciliation.

It's all draft, but one of the. One of the proposals was If states cannot guarantee that X amount of X percentage of people that are receiving these funds, you know, that they're not duping the system. uh then they have to pay uh you know, they have to pay for it, they have to pay for like fifty cents uh they have to pay for over half of it, uh which is uh b could wind up being billions of dollars. And they had to prove that they had X percentage that they could account for, and most states can't. And so now the States are angry.

Democrats just discovered the Tenth Amendment.

Now they're very angry about it. I I I mean, I don't know. This is something Republicans have got to go on offense on this stuff, and they're not doing it. They're not doing it.

So I'm frustrated. And I know everyone's like, oh, well, can't you just revel? And no, you know what? Everybody's sitting back and reveling in fear of victories is exactly how we got into this position. It is exactly how we got here.

So we've got the president over. Touring Saudi Arabia.

Well, he was in Saudi Arabia, then he was in Qatar. He's in UAE. And I thought the videos are pretty amazing coming out of all of it. He walked into one palace the other day and was saying that who's it, I guess. Was it in UAE he walked into one of the palaces and said, nice house?

And I just thought it was hysterical. I don't know why, but I just thought it was funny. I've noticed that they have like a lot of liminal space over there. With all of their grand palaces, etc. I thought that was very interesting as well.

So we're going to get into all of that. We're also going to discuss.

some of the latest with uh immigration. and refugees. And we've got to discuss the 2028 and what some Democrats are positioning themselves to do. I'm going through my list here. I've got some funny stuff for you as well.

And of course, that hearing yesterday, you had the Ben and Jerry's guy. Although Ben and Jerry's, it's not owned by those two hippies, right? It's owned by Unilabor. Yeah.

So they don't even own the ice cream anymore. But they were interrupting that yesterday.

So we got a lot of stuff to discuss today.

So anyway, welcome. Other big issue is what's happening with the Supreme Court today with birthright citizenship. And nationwide injunctions. This is another significant issue. Birthright citizenship.

Yeah, we're going to have a discussion about that. It's a very big day because you have those issues that are making it. And there's the hope that they're going to end these nationwide injunctions. You know, maybe perhaps once and for all, that would be nice. But I was looking at some of the arguments, like the court has to decide whether or not.

they're going to allow these nationwide injunctions. The court has protected this for quite some time.

So, this is going to be interesting. It's some of the most important oral arguments, I think, that we're going to have on all of this. A very big day for that as well. Because the birthright citizenship, that's been a debate for quite a long time. And I'm actually.

It's sort of wild that it's taken this long for it to make make its way up to the Supreme Court. And then, in addition to that, we have Trump urging Apple to shift manufacturing. from India to the US.

So it went from China, they were moving a lot of stuff from China to India. And now POTUS is wanting to move some of that from India to To the United States, which I think is what everybody would like, the onshoring of all of this stuff. But if it has to be, somewhere other than the United States, I would like for it to be with a geopolitical opponent of China. I think I feel comfortable with that. You don't have any objections to India, where I came.

Yeah, I mean, I'm all right. I'm all right with it as long as it's not as long as it's coming out of China. They've been ramping up their operations there. It's part of their diversity specifically to shift from China and expand the diversification of their supply chain.

So they actually have. Three huge plants there, and apparently they were getting ready to expand and construct some more. They've, I think it was a 60% increase. in the manufacturing In India from China, as they are trying to wind all of that down.

So, Interesting. I whatever reason, look again. You make it, you deregulate. You make things a little bit more. A little bit better for businesses here in the United States, and you're going to have less of a difficult time trying to get people to onshore.

So a lot of stuff happening today. And I think the uh Is the President expected to give some remarks later today? I don't think so. No, he's usually on every day, though. He's been on literally every day.

Every day. In fact, Biden aides were like, wow, he's doing a lot. There was a clip that I saw. I don't want to play because I hate all the people that were on it, but CNN, MSNBC, they were discussing, wow, he's actually doing quite a lot. You know, his foreign policy moves, he's traveling and talking to a lot of leaders and seemingly bringing them to our side.

Can you imagine Biden going to the Middle East? Because I don't know how you sleep.

Well, everybody was sleeping, they were doing a lot of, you know, they had a lot of business. But I can't even imagine. him being there. Uh In UAE and going to well, Saudi Arabia, he kind of embarrassed, well, he embarrassed himself. And then went with hat in hand.

I mean, it's pretty wild the difference that 20 years makes. One of the things we're going to discuss here coming up is now the leadership of Syria where they were just like a couple of years ago. Because you had You had an Iranian friendly, an Iran-friendly Assad, and now you have. a leader who was a jihadist.

Now the leader of Syria, who is a jihadist, he is not Iran friendly.

So are you noticing a trend here? It's a very interesting trend. We're going to discuss that because there's a lot of stuff shifting. Over in the Middle East, that is going to have long-lasting impact on what we do here.

So, those are some of the things we're going to be discussing today. Our partners at Preborn, great organization that helps women who are facing unplanned pregnancies. You know, when a woman can hear her baby's heartbeat, that baby's chance at life doubles. And when you help and partner with pre-born, $28 partners, our sponsors, one ultrasound, 140 sponsors five ultrasounds. Every cent goes to this.

So apparently, bald dudes are bringing back the toupee.

Well, women get extensions. Man, let me tell you something. You don't let a broad make fun of you for wearing a toupee because these girls out here are getting like five-foot-long extensions put up on their head. If they're not getting extensions, put up on their eyelashes.

So, you know what? You don't get no heat for that. Take that to the bank. But they are bringing it back. I would imagine, too, that they are much nicer than they were like when I was a kid.

Because when I was a kid, it was very obvious that somebody had a toupee.

So they said that this is a New York Post piece, and they said that men are bringing them back. I also thought dudes were doing. Like that hair plugs or whatever? Maybe, maybe not. But yeah, toupes are coming back.

They're coming back again. An ancient reptile footprint has upended theories about when animals evolved to live on land. There was a little short that Monty Python had one time where they took like this bone of something and fabricated it into a completely made-up animal and put it in a museum. It was a little, a little, one of their little cartoon breaks that they had for Monty Python. And it makes me, these kind of stories make me think of this every time.

It's a 350 million year old fossil. And they said it shows characteristics similar to that of monitor lizards. And it's been in Australia 350 million years ago, they suggest, is when it emerged. But they think that animals developed the ability to live on land faster than previously assumed. I actually don't really care about any of that.

I mean, I think it's interesting, but does it matter? Oh, is it a billion years earlier or not? Does it change where we are right now? I don't know. Chimpanzee.

Oh, this is really gross. Chimpanzees actually use leaves. It's gross, but. but not. They clean themselves.

Like, that's nature's tissue for them. The leaves, it's nature's tissue. They've been studying them, the horrible left-wing rag that is called the guardian. Said that they did this study on all of these chimpanzees, and that's have they always done that, or is that new? I would imagine.

I mean, leaves have been around. What? The leaves have been around forever.

So I imagine that. But like them using them to actually groom themselves with a leaf. It's kind of I don't know. It's interesting. Air traffic control hotline between Pentagon and Reagan, Washington National Airport.

Uh that's been broken since 2022. I think that might be needed. They said that it's supposed to be for coordinating aircraft. And it hasn't worked. Since March of 2022, they were not aware that the direct line was broken until a May 1st incident when a helicopter circled the Pentagon and caused two flights to abort landings.

I feel like they need to get that hotline fixed.

So, wait a minute, Poot Booty Juice, when he was Secretary of Transportation, he didn't know that. He didn't do anything about it. He didn't do anything about it. Sean Duffy gets in there and he's like, oh my gosh, what is happening?

So he immediately remedies it. But what the hell was Pooh? Oh, that's right. Poop Booty Juice had just bought some children and was pretending that he had birthed them in the hospital when he took months off for maternity leave. That's right, that's right.

The DOD also maintains the hotline, but the fact that you were not able to coordinate. Any of that air traffic, and you had that issue happen, that's pretty crazy. I read this when I first read this. I thought it said a fish cemetery. And I said, what?

A fisher's cemetery employee. He got charged because he dug up a grave for a gold ring.

Sounds like an old Tales from the Crypt story. Seth Davidson, 24, told police that he buried an urn with a gold ring in it and couldn't stop thinking about it. And so it's this isn't in Indianapolis. He apparently dug it up. He graved robbed.

That's. We don't do that anymore. We don't grave rob. We haven't done that since.

Well, hell, I don't know. At least 100 years. We don't grave rob anymore, but not this guy. There were reports of a suspicious car in the area, and that's what tipped off police to find him. We have a lot more in store, all of the latest.

It should be about need. And as you've reported, you know, look at the thousands of people fleeing war and violence, people who are waking up dead around the world, people who have helped our military. that are being left in camps. On a daily basis, while white Afrikaners have been fast-tracked. You're right, it is about need.

And if you look at this decision, this is really about people who have jumped the line. When you look at the fact that the entire refugee resettlement program in the United States has been totally gutted, that almost no refugees have been admitted since January. And the only ones that are being admitted are white Afrikaners. I don't know what that's. I mean, hi, remember Democrats, they had a problem with Cubans when they were coming in.

They had a problem with those refugees. Welcome back. That's one of the false shepherds with the cult that I call the Episcopal Church. I'm not a fan of it. I don't like anybody that ordains trans priests, celebrates abortion.

Rejects the biblical definition of marriage and then calls themselves shepherds. Get behind me, Satan. And you have this, you know, Tim Walz wannabe who's sitting there on Anderson Cooper's show on CNN saying that these people who are literally fleeing murder jumped the line. Tell me you don't understand how the refugee program works without telling me you don't understand how the refugee program works. I mean, I some of the, you know, why?

This is why people stopped going to church. Because of clowns like that, that guy, I can't say. If you got my piece last night for Substack, I told you, I sat on it for 24 hours. It's true. I mean, they finally discovered refugees that they hate because they're white.

And this guy, you can tell that this white whatever minister, what is he, a bishop? He's a bishop with the quote-unquote Episcopal Church. They've been hunting down entire families and brutally executing children. There was a story of a family, because they're white. There was a story of a family, generational farmers.

It was the Lindley murders. And they convicted six men. A family and their two-year-old daughter were brutally butchered, and they waited to chop up the little girl last. They made sure that she got a front row seat to watching her parents get tortured, the women get raped. Imagine your toddler daughter watching you be raped to death and then have your arms hacked off and then your ankles hacked off.

and then bit by bit you're chopped up like steak in front of your child for the crime of being a farmer who has whose family has been there for hundreds of years in South Africa because your skin is the wrong color. Because that's exactly what happened in this story. Notice that Bishop doesn't have any sad words for the Lindley, with the victims in the Lindley murders. I mean, there's more. I could give you a ton more examples, but you wouldn't be able to listen to the rest of the segment because it's so grisly.

They're just one family. That's just one story. There's tons of them. Tons of them. But you have these historically illiterate.

you know, want to be white saviors. These pr these communists, and that's what they are. They had only what 50 some of them? that arrived over here and they didn't jump the line. That's what the refugee program, that's how it's supposed to work.

simply trying to come into the country, not because you're fleeing for your life, but because you just want to come in and you want to be fast tracked, that's not the way it works. These people stayed in South Africa and they filled out the appropriate paperwork. To be admitted and considered as refugees. Then they were allowed in. People don't realize that they filled this stuff out forever ago.

And just kind of cross their fingers and hope they weren't murdered before it was considered. That's how that process works. They were able to get here because they're literally murdering them. Tons of them. And the Episcopal Church?

These devils, the bunch of demons that wear priest vestments, They have a problem with it because they're white. Oh, you know, our good Christian charity just doesn't allow us to help people fleeing racial genocide. That's a bridge too far. These clown herds were getting our tax dollars. That bishop that you just heard, that was last night.

They received our tax dollars. literally to help resettle. Illegal Immigrants in the United States. Not exaggerating. We've talked about all of these NGOs and all of these other.

Entities. They operate under the flag of Christianity, but they flout law. And, you know, being lawless. I mean, we can go revisit what the New Testament says about that. We can revisit, you know, Paul's numerous letters where he extols, you know, the virtue of following the law, and then, I mean, we can go on and on.

But They Received lots of millions of dollars to resettle or to settle illegal immigrants in this country. And now they just because in order to continue to receiving those federal dollars, they would have to agree to help resettle even people from South Africa and that's when they they didn't want to meet those requirements anymore. They were they were done with it. That's the reality. To hear that, oh, well, they were fast-tracked, that's absolutely offensive.

That is incredibly offensive. Incredibly offensive. I mean, they, um One of the things that I had heard is, oh, well, why don't they just go back to where they came from?

Well, you go back to where you came from then. 'Cause those people have been here for over four hundred years. But they think that that's a fitting punishment. In twenty twenty three, forty five white farmers were murdered in South Africa. The murder rate is a staggering 150 per 100,000.

There are only in South Africa fewer than 30,000 commercial farmers remaining. That rate of death actually exceeds the United States Army's death rate. And that was at the peak that compared to 120 per 100K, that was the peak of the Afghanistan-Iraq war in 2009. There's a story. I won't get too much in the details because I couldn't even read it all.

Where Another family that was a farmer, they took their infant, they had a baby, they had a three-month-old, and they drowned her. Front of the family. For they killed everybody else.

So I'm telling you, that's not, these are not. Unusual or exceptional stories, those are regular stories. That's how that's happening in South Africa. That's not hyperbole. And of course, you know, you have the law where they can confiscate your land based on your raise.

That was signed into law just last year. And the African National Congress, the ruling party. They said that if you're leaving You're a coward. They think you should stay and reap the punishment. They they literally r phrase it like it's accountability.

And then let's not forget one of the other major parties there, the economic freedom fighters, a bunch of illiterate communists. and their thug, Julius Malemma, led a stadium of communists screaming kill the white farmer. Yeah, the ANC literally said they're fleeing from persecution. Uh not from persecution, but from injustice. and equality and uh accountability.

For historic privilege or from justice. They're escaping from justice and trying to escape. their accountability for historic privilege. And if you're the Episcopal Church, So, you think that the sin of someone's ancestors hundreds of years ago, they should be responsible for that? Because if that's where you stand, then please explain to me Jesus' lineage.

I'll wait. Let's go back to David. Let's go back even further than that. Since you think that that sin carries down through generation after generation after generation, and then you tell me why you worship someone that comes with such a lineage. Because you miss the point of how God is glorified and how even imperfect people can be used and imperfect histories can be used.

But that's beside the point. These people are false Christians. The Episcopal Church is a joke. Their bishops are a joke. People should leave that and go find an actual church.

that follows actual Scripture. I just find this disgusting. This is no different than when they tried to burn down the church there in DC. Same thing. Remember?

And then what happened? Those leaders came out and said, oh, well, it's Trump's fault. Dahl Donald Trump. Because Bernloot Murder tried to burn down a church? I mean, they literally set it on fire.

No, but hey, M S thirteen gang bangers Pretty Pretty amazing, right? You think that anybody's gonna go have margaritas with the South African refugees? You think anyone's going to ask them how many of their family members were murdered? Hint, several. Yeah.

No, South Africa is ruled by thugs who want to settle scores with the same savagery and evil that they pretend to oppose. And then you got a fake church that gets taxpayer dollars. You would all fall out if you knew how much money that church got. Millions. They get taxpayer dollars and then they want to look the other way because of race.

Just sickening. Absolutely sickening. Yeah, due process. Of course they do, yeah. Are they going to talk about that?

Ooh, speaking of due process, hold up.

So you know that Wisconsin judge who got indicted. on charges that she helped immigrants evade.

Well, they say immigrants. It's illegal aliens. Evade arrest. Judge Hannah Dugan, this is why language is important. Hannah Dugan was accused of helping the illegal alien.

Run away from federal agents and they were waiting to arrest him outside of her courtroom.

Well, now she's indicted. She oughta be. Everybody's equal under the law, right? Or are they? Due process.

Here's your guys due process. Yay. Due process is so great. Except when it's not, if you're a Democrat. This story related, a Colorado prosecutor.

is offered an unlicensed Illegal alien probation after a deadly crash. This is an Arapaho. district attorney's office out there. They're defending their decision. It's an illegal alien who didn't have a driver's license, was in the country illegally, was operating a vehicle without a license, no insurance, no nothing.

And he killed a woman. It happened last year in Aurora. The victim, Caitlin Weaver, was headed home from work. When this Jeep Driven by this illegal alien, blasted through a residential neighborhood at top speed and slammed into her car. This driver was going over 90 miles per hour in a subdivision.

Yeah.

She didn't even see him coming. She had no idea. She was killed. instantly. That's the only I hate saying it, but that's the only silver lining was that she wasn't in pain when she was murdered.

She was immediately out. They tried to keep her on life support, but it didn't work. She was she was gone. She was gone. She was gone.

She volunteered as a for a suicide hotline. She worked with drug addicts at a center in Aurora. She was really trying to help people get back on their feet after battling addiction, reclaim their lives. The illegal alien had other kids in the car with him. He was charged with vehicular homicide.

He's 15 years old and the state law shielded him from being publicly identified.

So the prosecutor said that they were going to pursue the maximum sentence. of two years in youth corrections. And that changed. After the DA's office underwent new leadership. And the the uh illegal alien was offered two years probation and that's it.

And that's it. You know, it was made, the point was made that if he had taken a gun and shot someone, there it would be a different case. But because he used a car to kill someone. Uh, there's no financial liability. The family, all the medical bills for the very you know, 24 hours that she lived after.

They are stuck with all those bills. The Jeep was uninsured. Uh, he had stolen it. Uh and so nobody's responsible there. The family's on the hook for it.

Where are Democrats with due process again? Can I hear more about due process from Democrats? Ms. Weaver. uh had her uh organ donation.

information filled out, so she donated her organs. And the illegal alien? He has now filed for asylum. I don't care if he's 15. Death penalty.

You know what you're doing. I'm so done with this. You know what you're doing. Yeah, so they they he's walking. He's gonna be able to live his life.

and he's going to be coddled by the State. that values people based on race. more than others. Due process again. Where's the Episcopal Church for that family?

Yeah.

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. But I talked to my psychopharm guy from New York and said, you know, because I have been using remnant trazodone to sleep. And Trazodone is not really a sleeping aid. It's a depression medication, usually for people who are addicted to something. That's what I read at least online.

I'm not addicted to anything. And, well, I was sugar, but that's over. Thank you. Banjaro.

So I asked him if I could get Xanax because, you know, Xanax. to sleep is fantastic. You take one, it puts you to sleep. And to me, I sleep the whole night. But he's like, I don't like to give Xanax.

I'm like, you've been my shrink for so long. I've never abused any kind of med. I don't know why people would abuse Xanax because all it does is make you sleep.

So She's mad because she can't get Xanax in Ireland because you know she moved to Ireland. Maybe just try getting off your ass and exercising and getting tired from that. Does that mean to say? Why I just, I don't know. I don't like all the prescriptions for everything.

It's good, solid, healthy advice. Take a melatonin. You know, that's like an actually an antiviral thing. Melatonin. Take a melatonin.

I take 10 milligrams of melatonin and it works like a dream. Here's a crazy. Weird. Idea. She's in Ireland.

Mm-hmm. I don't know. A whiskey.

Some sort of bourbon. I mean, there's a lot of pretty stuff to look at there. Walk around, you know, get outside, get some of that fresh Irish air. And I'm just saying. Seems like there's a few things she could do to help her sleep.

She's like, doesn't work.

So, why is she so stressed out? That's a good point. She sounds like I don't know. It's just like the height of entitlement. Why are you so stressed out?

Just You don't do anything. You're sitting over there in Ireland not doing anything. I just can't sleep. I need a Xanax. I think maybe you have too many things you're taking.

That's also kind of you know maybe a possibility I don't like this. Like, I just need a prescription to take a medicine to go to sleep. I mean, there might be some people by nature of stressful work or whatever. that they have to if they work weird hours. But You know, melatonin is pretty good.

I don't know. I just don't.

So she. moved to Ireland, and every video that she has made. has been her complaining. about something she's unhappy about since she's moved to Ireland. And I read that She actually is considering not staying there.

I don't want her back. Just keep her. Just stay there. Can we just like put a sign out in America's closed and put one of those velvet ropes in front? Or put like one of those sandwich boards, like wet floor, America's closed, you can't come in.

We do that. Don't come back. Have a moose hold the sun. Uh yeah, have the moose hold it. We might get hit by a solar eruption tomorrow.

Oh, I'm praying we do. We got a lot more on the way. Second hour, stick with us. Burn a gun. Look, it makes sense to diversify your weapons array.

I'm not gonna tell you not to carry it. I think you should carry a gun. And I think that you should not be afraid to use it in defense of yourself or a loved one. I try to avoid gun-free zone areas because they're dumb and it's unconstitutional. And these people don't do anything to protect you.

They just want the virtue signaling of saying gun-free. But I also don't want to make a political statement not carrying and then get turned into a statistic.

So Burna is a self-defense weapon. It's shaped like a gun. Like you got the Berna rifle, you got all these other kinds. But I think for the purpose of this, the Burna SD and their new compact launcher, the Burna CL, that's what you need to focus on. And they shoot chemical irrigant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away.

It doesn't care about stupid gun-free zone signs. It doesn't care about any of that. There's no background checks. There's no waiting periods. You don't have to pay a tax stamp.

There's none of it. It's sent right to your front door. And you are able to still have a means of protection when a private property wants to disarm you or a local or municipal restriction. And for college kids, too, that are too young to carry, but also live alone, this is a Great idea for them as well. And it's super affordable.

You can check it out. They have like different accessories and colors and all that. The Burna CL, it's like maybe just under seven inches long, really thin. And it's, there's no, I mean, there's no recoil, easy target acquisition. And the SD, that's one of its best-selling self-defense options.

You can look at all of them at burna.com/slash dana, b-y-r-n-a.com/slash dana. The mighty 80 street band is here tonight to call upon On a righteous tower of art, of music, of rock and Role in dangerous times. In my The American Idol. No. The American I've written about and has been a beacon of hope and Liberty for 250 years is currently in the hands of a corrupt and Competent and truthful.

Tonight, we ask all who believe in. democracy in the best of our American experience. To rise with us. Oh. against authoritarianism and on freedom reign.

Yeah, so Bruce Springsteen decides to wait till he goes to England and then run his mouth. About the U.S. government. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you.

I've got my criticisms of the administration, but I'm not going to go to a foreign country and be like, run my mouth about it. Can I just say that I think he's entirely overrated? Get mad because he is. You know, he's overrated. You know who else is overrated?

Barbara Streisand, overrated AF. Welcome back to the show. Let's make everybody mad today. Dana Lash with you. We're at the top of the second hour.

He is, he's overrated. And whenever he plays his guitar, he looks like he's struggling with constipation. Because he probably is. Yeah, and you guys know it. He's like literally up dry as a box of weedies.

He's. Anyway, so that, like, he decided to go. I'm trying to, these people use words that they don't understand.

So, anyway, real quick, welcome back. Channel 347 is where you can also stream the radio program. The chat is at Rumble. And. It's This, it's a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous.

What does he think treason is? I love these people that use these big words. Treasonous.

Well, what does that mean to you? What classifies particularly, be specific, as treason to you, Bruce? specifically. He probably he wouldn't even be able to define it on his own, much less Give you a solid example of what he thinks is treasonous from the administration.

Now, like I said, I've got I call balls and strikes, and I hate. I have an adversarial relationship with government. In that, that's how we're supposed to be, because we're patriots. We're not supposed to be besties with government. Real patriots.

When they feel like their government's trying to get too buddy-buddy with them, they kind of, they freak out a little bit. And that's that animating spirit of liberty that you're either born with here or that develops in you. When you come here and you join this American family, everybody knows it. Like, just you know what that is. I'm just, but to say treasonous, what actually specifically is treasonous?

What I think is treasonous. I mean I don't know. I could go on. I mean, I could get personal and talk about how he slept around on his wife, but I'm not going to do that. Because I am a good person, Kane, right?

I'm a nice person. I'm not going to talk about that broken promise, that broken covenant. That is very gracious of you. Look, I feel like I need to not mention it. Yeah, his affair, and it was a television actress, and he really humiliated her on a public stage, but that's okay.

Yep. I'm not going to talk about any of that. Credit where credit's due. He had said during an interview with Variety in 27: he's like, I still believe people fundamentally come to be entertained, and I want to blah, blah, blah. Then entertain them.

No what me wanting a political opinion from Bruce Springsteen is like me going to Joe Biden for gun suggestions, right? Or firearm advice or something. Like that's it doesn't make any sense. I don't mind if people have their opinions, but when you're over in a foreign country and you're running your mouth and saying stuff like that, I mean, treason, when you talk about treason, you know what the punishment for that is, correct?

Okay, so Words have meanings. And let's be proper about it. If you disagree with the administration, you can say, I disagree, and this is what I don't like. But to be like, bro, there's trees in it. Like, what is that?

What does that even mean? It's just stupid. You know, it's weird to see people. who are fetid. by our society for being like the upper echelon of their Skill set, they're artists or whatever, and they're celebrated, and then they say completely stupid things that make me think they're the actual dumbest people on Guy of the Green Earth.

I don't know. I mean, I get that he's still mad over Kamala, but good heavens. Can we talk for just a couple things here a little bit about the GOP stuff?

So I was asking a little bit earlier: you know, where is the RNC? Because I'm a little mad because the big beautiful bill is a big beautiful turd It is horrible. I'm not going to pretend otherwise for clicks. I'm not going to whatever for high fives. I don't want to be buddy-buddy, chummy-chummy, cocktail party invite with my government.

I don't want to because I'm a patriot. But I want exactly what I don't want tax on social security. I don't want higher taxes, period. I would love for the IRS to be abolished. Absent that.

Let's have tax cuts for everybody, not just certain brackets. Particularly when the certain brackets pay lower than others. 50% of Americans don't even pay into the system. That's not just me pulling a number out of the ether. That is actual data, the latest available from the IRS.

50% of people in this country don't even pay into the system. And then you have the top percentage that pay literally all of it.

So when you're talking about giving money to people who didn't pay anything in, you are redistributing wealth. And I remember under Barack Obama, people who claimed the mantle of Republican or conservative or constitutionalist, however you want to put it, they had a problem with that. We all objected to that. I'm not going to like it more if it's repackaged and tied up with a big bow that has Republican elephants on it. For the sake of having pretending to have a win.

I'm going to tell you: when your opponent can get you to swallow something, That was their idea first? You didn't win. You lost. And not only did you lose, but you surrendered.

So I'm not having, like, for instance, this bill as it is, and I know that the House is still fighting over drafting. And I'm being generous in making that distinction. They still include in it all the green news scam stuff. I'm not kidding you. It retains most of the of the Green News scam subsidies for an additional four years.

That's literally all of Trump's term.

So in this bill. If they were to send this draft right now and kick it over and pass it, It would literally fund all of the Green New Deal stuff for the rest of Trump's term. That's all in this bill.

Now. And the Inflation Reduction Act. I mean, all the subsidies. All of it's in there. And they're outsourcing jobs.

Green New Act, the Green New Ah deal and the Inflation Reduction Act. They all the solar, so for instance in twenty twenty four Solar made up over sixty percent of all new U. S. electric generation. Who manufactures?

the vast majority of solar components that we use. Help. Any guesses? China. It's China.

So we're literally subsidizing China. And our gas and coal, which are plentiful, renewable, it is renewable. And people who argue otherwise literally are too stupid to talk about anything of this issue. That this is literally, this is science, it's renewable. All of the jobs that are related to those industries, all of that, everything gets kicked to the curb.

So This is a Republican bill includes the subsidization of China. It continues all of Biden's grand new scam subsidies. doesn't do anything about the volatility or instability of the grid. doesn't remedy job loss. And they're talking about maybe kicking it down the road till 2029.

Any kind of repeal of this? What did Republicans tell you after this election? First, what did they tell you before? Oh, we got to get all these things so that we can pass this.

Okay, they got it. Oh no, we can't do it now. We gotta wait we gotta wait until spring. Remember, I took a lot of hell for that. You guys just remember in January, February.

Remember how much you remember the McCarthy fight last year? I took a lot of hell for criticizing Republicans for kicking the can down the road. I said they're going to do it again.

Well, here we are. I look like a soothsayer. I am a modern Nostradamus. They want to kick a lot of this stuff if they're not able to get all the things with reconciliation. They want to wait till September, and then they want to kick all the green news scam stuff down to 2029.

So you're literally funding so it's Biden's term 2.0. They've only passed five bills. Five bills have been passed to send to POTISISDASK. He has more EOs. Because Congress can't get anything in.

He's got more executive orders than FDR did. Like tops in history. It's and everybody's got a sugar high. They're out here celebrating prematurely.

Sorry slicks, but all this stuff is going to go away in 2028. Hell, it may go away after midterms, at the rate this is going.

So I asked, back to my question, where's the RNC? Where are they at with this? I know it's not popular and you're not going to get cocktail party invites if you try to hold your party accountable because the new gaslighting is that patriots don't ask questions of party leadership or party subordinates or anything like that because you're not being a team player and you're hurting your own side. They want you to think that accountability, they want to brainwash you into thinking that accountability is a bad thing. We raised hell against the Bush administration for stuff like this.

Now The R and C. You've got Michael Watley and Casey Crosby. that were handpicked. And Crosby is the member from Kentucky. She's co-chair Long Wally, so I don't think Larry Trump is there anymore.

That was kind of a short tenure, I think. And Lorraine found a Forbes piece because I'm like, where are, first off, if I'm the RNC, let me interrupt myself. If I'm the RNC, And I'm seeing that You know, the president made these promises to voters, and he's not able to get anything done. I'm going to find the vulnerable Republicans. and I'm going to come down them on on them like Thor's hammer.

Why are you not getting this passed? Do you want access to uh Republican Congressional Committee campaign dollars. Do you want access to the National Republican Senatorial Committee campaign dollars coming up in midterms? Do you want help from your party? as you battle any kind of primary or opponent in a general election.

Because if you're not passing this and you're not putting every bit of momentum that you have behind it, you're not going to get any help and you're going to dangle out in the wind helplessly. I would be threatening them. I would be threatening their very political existence. I don't know what's happening. The RNC, though, according to Forbes, and I've heard this from a lot of people.

Sometimes different varying degrees. This can happen, but this is kind of, I think, in excess. There's a there, I know that there are a lot of businesses related to POTUS that are getting RC money, even while he does all the crypto stuff.

So, this piece with Forbes kind of was getting into some of that. Forbes isn't necessarily a totally moderate. website. But For instance, the RNC, they spent $300,000 at different businesses. They spent a lot of money at Mar-a-Lago.

If there's an event at Mar-a-Lago, the RNC pays for the use of Mar-a-Lago. And I think probably one of the reasons that they do that is so he can later claim it, like tax deductions, et cetera, for tax, you know, whatever. But still, um I think that that brings up a lot of questions. You got to be careful, like the hotels and The publishing company for donor mementos, like venue rental, like the Doral, things like that. I mean, that's getting a lot I think that RNC cash should be spent specifically on supporting and getting elected Republican candidates.

That's what it should be going towards. And if that's a campaign that has to then do campaign stuff unrelated to that. But we can't be paying people so that they can get tax deductions for their hotels and this and that and this and that. We got to stop this. Where the hell is the party organization?

I see none. I see no effort at all by the RNC. This is some of the weakest RNC leadership I have ever seen. And I've criticized almost all of them. Oh my gosh, what was his name?

Michael, the guy who's on CNN now? Can't remember his name. Gosh, I can't remember. Right's previous and I, Reince was pretty decent. We went back and forth on things before.

Steele, Michael Steele. My gosh, I blasted that guy during the tea party days. Oh, he hated me. Hates me still. Hated me.

I dragged him up one side and down the other. My gosh, you ought to go back like in the old archives and catch some of that.

So Earth could be hit. By a 600,000-mile-wide bird-wing solar eruption tomorrow, per astronomers.

So what does that mean? Am I like gonna get superpowers? What does that mean? Oh, yeah. Dude, I have got some requests.

If there's a superpower I could get, it's, so let me explain. It's a filament. Of solar material that's more than twice as long as the distance from the Earth to the Moon. And it could hit Earth tomorrow.

So they said that. It could be like communications affected, all kinds of stuff. Uh, disruption to electrical equipment. I think the aliens are trying to hit us with an EMP and then, like, that's what. I mean, I just, you know, I want SMOD.

I'll take an alien invasion. I got some stuff that I'd like to use, like, at least once in my life, you know, and really put my drills to work. That would be great. I'm not saying I drilled for an alien invasion, but who knows? Maybe I did.

Also, let's see here.

So, China's AI-powered humanoid robots are aiming to transform manufacturing. I don't like this because I will never forget that one little robot that went and told the other little robots it needed to come back to its little robot home and they all left. Yeah, psychopaths, according to a study per Newsweek, are more attractive. Too bad that doesn't work for Bruce Bringstein. Oh no, stick with us!

It kills women. It kills women. To defund. care, reproductive care. It kills women.

to restrict it, to ban it, to defund it. And this legislation will kill women. That is not a hyperbole. It is hyperbole, and it's stupid and brain dead and ditzy. First off, that's AOC.

Like, you needed any kind of introduction on that. And she's talking about the big stupid bill. which is funding still all the grand new scam stuff. It's funding you know, there's no you g still have taxes on Social Security. There's no actual I mean, it's just bl I'm not happy with it.

I we demanded more. Like why is it that we ask for a lot and then we're voters are told that no, no, no. No, you only get a little bit. It's not what we voted for. Jiminy Christmas, man.

I'm like back in tea party days, like mentally. Welcome back, Dina Lash with you.

So she's talking about this bill where they, yeah, I told you the three Republicans, one of them is Mike Lawler. I have a tweeted about it, a piece that mentioned it over at Substack. But they want. They want to Uh keep funding for Planned Parenthood in there. Still.

Funding for P Planned Parenthood in it. still to this day. And as you know, Planned Parenthood gets like Half a billion dollars. A year of taxpayer dollars, and this is all publicly available information because they have to report it. Not only do they make a profit.

But they have a revenue of taxpayer dollars to the tune of like 460 something million dollars a year.

So about half a billion a year. And it's been increasing year after year. And I. It's stunning to me that there are three Republicans even that are. In the How is that?

that don't want to remove this funding. Not to her point where it's going to kill women. I am so tired. of these grifter females. Telling women that if they don't get abortion on demand, we're all going to die.

Can we just hold up for a minute and talk about facts? Here. Pregnancy Resource Centers. Outnumber Planned Parenthood clinics three to one in every single state. Every single state.

Pregnancy resource centers, They didn't get under Obamacare, and the reason I know all of this is back during the fight over Obamacare. This was the same argument that came out because Obamacare was going to be funding Planned Parenthood even more. And they were only going to give a pittance to pregnancy resource centers.

Now pregnancy resource centers offer a full suite of services. The other reason I know all of this is because Planned Parenthood was trying to lie and act like they performed mammograms, which they do not. They don't even have mammography machines. What they do is, they want taxpayer dollars to give you a referral to go get one somewhere else. And you pay for it.

So that's all that is. Pregnancy resource centers do all of those things. They have the mammography machines. They offer a full suite of services and they also, some centers even offer services for dudes. They even offer pediatric care.

A full range of services. The one thing that they don't do is they don't offer abortions as a form of birth control. And that's Planned Parenthood's big business.

So pregnancy resource resource centers. Which again, Outnumber. Planned Parenthood And they do birth control and all of that. They just don't do abortion on demand as birth control. They They're everywhere and they're ignored And they have to be ignored.

Democrats don't ever talk about them because they get money from Planned Parenthood, that half a billion dollars that we give to Planned Parenthood under threat of force. That is funneled. It's like 99% into Democrat campaigns. Actually, it's all Democrat campaigns. I think they just left 1% off.

for plausible deniability. But they donate exclusively to Democrats. You can go and look at Open Secrets and see where everybody donates. They donate exclusively to Democrats and have for forever.

So it's our tax dollars being taken from us. to fund Democrat campaigns. And they also make money. They make a lot of money. They make a lot of profit.

on top of getting our taxpayer dollars. And I keep hearing this refrain over and over again. Women are not stupid. We know where babies come from. The audacity Is that by making these arguments?

You're intimating that women are stupid and We're all just cheap bimbos who don't, wow, we just fell pregnant. I hate that phrase. It's like you fell down and found yourself pregnant. You fell down the stairs. You got pregnant.

Wow. Who knew? It's asinine. They don't save any lives. There's not anything that they offer that cannot be offered at a pregnancy resource center.

It is a scam. And it's just really Just the Top of ignorance. For a lawmaker to sit there and act like women are going to die if they can't have abortion as birth control on demand. That's what this is. That's what the whole entire argument always is.

Now, excuse me, keep in mind, Democrats also fought like hell, not once. Not twice, but three times. times. to stop birth control from being available over the counter. Three separate times in the past I think 10 years Republicans brought that to the floor and Democrats killed it every time.

Hmm, why could that be?

Well, maybe because they want women chained. to the big daddy that has played parenthood. They want women to have to go, hands out, like Tiny Tim. And beg for birth control. May I have some Planned Parenthood?

They want to keep them shackled with limited options, which is ironic. for a party that always claims to be about choice, except they're not. They don't want you to choose. Did you get to choose whether or not you get a birth control over the counter? Hell no.

Democrats made that possible for you. They block you from having that choice. The only choice they want you to have is to go to Planned Parenthood.

so that you can give them and their campaigns more money. That's what this is all about. And I just think You look like a bimbo when you say these things. And I think you should be publicly ridiculed when you get up there and you play to the worst stereotype of females, when you fulfill the patriarchal stereotype, the progressive patriarchal stereotype of women, when you get up there and you fulfill that with your nonsense. It's asinine.

It's like These women out there who say That, oh, they weren't like if they have a miscarriage and, oh, hospitals don't do DNCs.

Well, miscarriage is not a viable pregnancy. That's not a. No hospital is going to reject doing that. They think you're stupid. That's the sad thing about this.

And I'm just, I'm just, I'm just done with it. It's infuriating. Also infuriating. Can I play this for a moment? This is, I don't know if we have this.

This is um I'm gonna drop this in slack. This is Senator Josh Hawley. who's talking about and this is all a part of that bill. He tweeted, quote, no Republican. should be supporting Medicaid benefit cuts.

were the party of the working class Time to start. acting like it. I want you to listen to the sound bite. This bill comes in. Over from the House to the Senate, and you have to vote on it.

Are you no if this bill does not change? Yo, I'm not going to support this bill from the House in this form. I think that's clear. It's got to change before it can pass the Senate. And I continue to stand by my line in the sand, which is no Medicaid benefit cuts.

Listen, if you want to do work requirements, I'm all for that. I bet every Republican, and I bet most Americans would agree with that. But we're not talking here about just work requirements. The House goes much, much, much further than that. This is real Medicaid benefit cuts.

I can't support that. No Republican should support that. We're the party of the working class mono. We need to act like it.

Alright, so. This is an issue. I don't like the language. And this is all coming from The Issue that I was telling you about, what was it yesterday, that's been proposed where. Republicans are looking for savings and they're looking at states that have Medicaid fraud and abuse, and telling states, you need to meet this percentage of fraud reduction, and if you don't, you're going to have to pay for this yourself.

Mm-hmm. and a lot of these other, you know, making sure like work requirements or making sure that the money is going towards people who are here legally. And I think those are all opportunities, those are all things that Josh Hawley missed saying. I don't want to hear the phrase No Republican should be supporting Medicaid benefit cuts. We're the party of the working class.

Time to start acting like it. That's communist language. That's too big to fail language. We remember the Bushisms, do we not? Tell me that does not sound like Bush League.

And I like Josh Hawley. He's from my home state. We know a lot of the same people, we know each other. But again, I got to call balls and strikes. I don't care about cocktail party invites.

This is too big to fail language. No Republican should be talking about expanding government entitlement. Heaven forbid we talk about the things that empower people to get off Medicaid. Heaven forbid we do that. You know, goodness, let's ignore everything Ben Franklin said.

Let's ignore the Federalist Papers. Let's ignore what Hamilton wrote about. Let's ignore what Adam. Let's just talk about, oh, no, we can't cut it. That sounds exactly like too big to fail.

Again, empower people. To get off Medicaid. How do you do that? You don't tax everybody to death, number one. You deregulate.

you stop spending everybody's damn money. But they would rather use this language than do any of the things that I just mentioned.

So instead we got tax on Social Security. That's absolutely in the the latest draft. I read it to you literally the other day. I linked it in my Substack newsletter that you get as subscribers. It's all there.

This is the problem. There's so much abuse and so much fraud. I just feel like he was unprepared to answer that. But also I like Josh Hawley, but there are some things that he says that I'm like, hmm. Reminds me just a little bit of old school.

that era. But no. It is too big to fail language. And It's I you know I I don't know. We have to get the entitlement queens and the entitlement queen.

uh thinking out of the GOP. That's not big tent. Big tent. You want to know how the tent grew? And it's not big tent.

That's a cheap phrase for coalition. You have party and you have coalition. But this is actually a coalition issue. Because what is one of the three things that everybody came together on? during the last election, do you remember?

Smart. spending. Cutting government entitlement. That was the whole thing. And We just, I don't know why there's now we have, and it's not the people that are coming in.

To the coalition, it's the old school Republicans that are saying this stuff. And this is why I'm not a Republican, because they're too moderate for me. They're too fiscally irresponsible. and they they get involved in nation building. and mission creep, and that's just not where I've been.

But I vote Republican generally. I vote for the most conservative. Person on the ticket, or I vote for the position that best advocates what I want, what my what me as a voter would like. But the thing is, is like they don't actually say Okay, well the bill cuts Medicaid. What do you mean?

How does it cut Medicaid? Work requiring work. or demanding work requirements isn't cutting Medicaid. That's stupid.

So what is exactly cutting Medicaid? Making sure that there's no fraud. And that people who are here illegally don't get Medicaid dollars because that's not cutting Medicaid either.

So what exactly Does it mean where is the Medicaid being cut? Because all I see are states. And I don't even even think Medicaid should exist. Me. personally.

So I'm telling you, Republicans are too moderate for me. And I can say that, but we can't put it into action because they've refused to do anything else to make that a reality. They want a safety net of government to keep you under control. That's what this is all about. But Where is it being cut?

Demanding that states verify that Medicaid dollars are being spent. like actually on Legally, the people who are here legally, and Medicaid issues, not waste fraud and abuse. How is that a cut to Medicaid? Why are we using Democrat language to avoid accountability? Why are we tolerating this nonsense?

I mean, as Kay noted, each of these, we talked about this yesterday, each of these states, they were told. You? have to meet the threshold. You have to be able to show. that 10% that under 10%.

is waste, fraud and abuse. Anything over that you're going to have to foot the bill for. Democrats are apoplectic. Why are we using language of Democrats? Why is any Republican using the language of Democrats to avoid accountability for Medicaid?

Why? If you want another tea party, this is how you get it. But it doesn't end well for you. for the Republicans who oppose the grassroots, if history has shown us anything. We got a lot more on the way.

It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man. I am really mad at this dude. A Florida man was arrested Tuesday because he shot his neighbor's cow multiple times because he was angry that it had jumped over his fence. It was a two-year-old calf that had at least five gunshot wounds.

She had been shot in the chest. The abdomen, or the guts, the rear leg, everything. The animal was lying on the ground, struggling to move in a lot of pain as the deputies approached, and it had to be euthanized. And the the cow's owner said his neighbor Hung Trin, T-R-I-N-H, 54, was angry. Oh, man, I c and he used he used a twenty two.

Oh. Like an absolute pansy. Hung Trin, major Florida man pansy, used a 22 to go and shoot this calf.

So he's charged with animal cruelty. I personally think he ought to be dragged behind a truck, but that's me. Grand theft of a commercial farm animal, according to the sheriff's office. And I'm glad that the sheriff, Carmine Marseno, went hard on it and was like, We're not going to tolerate this because it's a farming community, number one. I mean, there's a lot of cattle ranchers in this area.

And they, I like the way police handled it, but this infuriates me. That's so ignorant. That is so ignorant. It jumped your fence. Oh, use your little, use your little sissy boy 22 to go out and.

Handle the cow? Golly. Uh let's see. Oh, man bites dog, dog bites man. Coyote attacks Florida man in a shocking junkyard incident.

I'm uh It's an oh, I can't get this to open, of course. Of course, it would. Yeah, no, we're gonna have to probably have to. I don't think we're gonna be able to get this one. Yeah, well I can't get that either.

Cause yay, yay Safari. I know. Anyway, but I'm mad about the guy that.

So the coyote attacked a Florida man, shocking junkyard incident. It was on Tuesday. And the guy was going about his usual routine and he saw this like. Disoriented, rough-looking coyote, and it wandered into his lot and then it just lunged at him. He said it, he goes, it didn't just bite and run, that it held onto his arm.

And they had a call, Florida, you know, wildlife, etc. But that, I mean, That sounds rabid. In those instances, they didn't follow up on that, but I hope I'm sure that they checked it out. Third hour on the way, partners who helped bring you the program. Home title lock, it's your greatest asset.

So that guy, that's that Sherry Thandar, I don't know, the guy who wants to. He wants to uh Uh, impeach Trump again. Jeez. Uh, he doesn't even know all the cities in his district, all the towns in his district. How embarrassing!

This guy's a fool, and his hair looks ridiculous. Stop trying to be Javier Malai. Welcome back. Daniel Lash with you. He's like the Timu, Javier Malai.

Daniel Lash with you. We're at the top of this third hour. I said it, and it's true. You can listen to the show everywhere. Channel 347's DirecTV.

and uh all kinds of fun stuff. Yay! Go find us, Facebook, and YouTube.

So uh Yeah, this um Yeah. I'm not, uh, we were talking about the big beautiful bill, all this stuff. This is what Democrats have been doing. They'd have nothing else, so let's go back to the impeachment well. Republicans are so inactive, I almost think that they deserve a pummeling.

At midterm, but at the same time, I don't want that to happen because guess what happens if they lose? Oh, it's going to be impeachment, everything. Yay, I love being in a groundhog day cycle of the same stuff all the time. That's all they have. All they have.

Well, I guess we should impeach him. I don't like what he said. Guess we should impeach him. I don't like what he did. Guess we should impeach him.

It's the same stuff every day. And apparently, some Democrats are trying to tell this little fruitcake to shut up. Like, stop trying to push impeachment. That's not going anywhere. It's not going anywhere.

And he won't. He's not listening. He's like David Hogg, right? He's like the David Hogg of Congress. Uh So we got a lot of things here to touch on.

So You know, POTUS has been Uh in Uh Middle East stories wrapping that up. And he met with which I thought was interesting, the uh head of Syria. Their new leader, the interim Syrian president Ahmed Al Sharay. who used to be known By his um G Hadi seprique Abu Muhammad al-Jolani. He met him in Riyadh.

And this was Like literally six months after he came in and toppled the Assad regime.

Now, remember what we told you this time about Syria and the leadership. You used to have different jihadi factions.

Now what I find funny is that The media was trying to downplay this guy's jihadi background. And now that Trump met him, they're like, by the way, do you know he used to be a jihadi? Like, now they're like embracing it. He had been previously on the designated global terrorist list in 2013. Because he had up the Al-Qaeda affiliate in Syria.

That's what that the al-Nusra, he had up al-Nusra, the Al-Nusra front. And they rolled in and got rid of Assad. And Assad, Bashir al-Assad, kind of, you know. with Russia and Iran. Very they were all buddies, right?

and also help facilitate some of the stuff with regard to Hezbollah, et cetera.

So he had been known, he was on the designated global terrorist list, was placed there in 2013, Saudi-born, former jihadist. That's how he's been described.

So I guess he's not, you know, jihad anymore. Jihad, I don't know. Like, I guess he's not. But. He moved his forces in and then they led, they toppled Assad.

Assad had to flee. To Russia, if you remember.

Now he's saying that he's not going to be a jihadi anymore. and that he just wants a government for the people, right? By the people. I they all say that. Time will tell.

What interests me, and first off, I think when you're talking about leadership in this part of the world, nobody has clean hands. And I get it that we all want to live in a kitten and sunshine world where it's all sparkles and rainbow and dots and kittens and yay, lollipops, and gummy bears. It's all so great. I get it. But we don't live in that world.

We live in a reality where there exists some very brutal people, and there are some very brutal parts of the world that only respond to brutality. It's not a justification for it, it's an explanation.

So, this guy says he's not going to be jihadi anymore. And so. My interest in this is the positioning of Syria away from Iran. That is what interests me in this. Because this isn't just a regime change, it's a reset for this area.

Remember, it's Iran versus the Saudis. It's the Shia versus the Sunni. And this is we're seeing this like everywhere. You know, part of it is, you know, some of it's fueling some of the discontent in parts near in entities near India.

So When he announced that they were going to lift sanctions on Syria, he got a 40-minute standing ovation. from people there. The crown prince, MBS, of Saudi Arabia, stood up and applauded him. And uh POTUS joking was like, Oh, what I do for the crown prince Now Some, and the left, I think, is trying to understand their position on this. S you could argue.

Oh well, Trump is embracing this jihadist and oh my gosh, look at him he's coming in.

Well, I realize that there are now some of the factions in the Republican camp, they liked Assad. Tulsi Garbra was one of them. They some of them are, they think Assad was better than the other jihadis rolling in. And time will tell if that remains to be seen. I mean, I don't think you're going to get a great leader over there, but some might be less bad than others, I think is the only way you can put it.

But again, the big thing for me is the repositioning of Syria away from Iran. The sanctions that they've had on Syria have been. I mean Gosh, forever. They've been sanctioned for forever. They had.

Tons of sanctions that, and they had this, it's called the Caesar Act that was passed in 2019.

So, what that did is that the white, on top of everything else, there were wide-ranging restrictions on not just like the government and not just on companies, but even individuals. They were not allowed to. Or they would be sanctioned. From any economic activity that boosted Assad's war effort. And so the whole economy was just.

You know, you can't touch it. And the World Bank reported that between 2010 and 2020, Syria's economy shrank by more than half. And as of 2022, they had poverty affecting 69% of the population. And other Arab nations were hesitant to to invest because they didn't want to get sideways. with U.

S. sanctions, the Saudis being among them. Cutter being among them. They were looking at investment opportunities, they want to make money. And they didn't want to run afoul, particularly the Saudis, of any of this, so they didn't get involved in it.

They everybody was just sort of nobody really did anything, was kind of hands-off to that extent.

So now that he He told also uh Al Shara or I'll share it. Part of what the deal would include in lifting these sanctions was normalization, the normalization of relations with Israel. Get rid of the Gazan terrorists. Stop associating with Iran. Stop doing this with Hezbollah.

Stop doing this with Hamas. And then they can release sanctions. And apparently Ashere agreed to it. And so People were celebrating in Syria. They had like fireworks going off.

They were out in the streets celebrating because it's going to change their entire economy. You're going to have Arab states. The Saudis are going to go in and develop and do all of this. You might look at it like, oh, business. It's more than that.

Think of it as like an actually functioning Belt and Road against Iran. You're you're What's the word I'm looking for? You're terraforming, basically. a nation away from Iran.

So I think that might help color your perspective of this just a little bit. because that kind of puts it into a better context. That ultimately, I think, is what all of this has been about. Because the left, I think they wanted to be apoplectic over this, but there's a lot more to it than that. Uh The Syrians responded I mean they were thousands in the streets.

celebrating this. I saw a couple pictures where they were wave somebody was waving an American flag out there.

Now, I'm not I am not sold, and I am not persuaded by performative sentiment at all. 'Cause I am a natural cynic and suspicious of everyone. But what I am persuaded by is the strategy of further isolating Iran. Who still calls us the great Satan? and still finances the deaths.

Of a lot of soldiers. And I know, and and Americans, and I know people say, well, the Saudis in 9-11. I agree. Wholeheartedly. It's not the same people running it today.

And I'm not saying that you don't enter with any kind of caution. And again, I want to reemphasize, it's not the same faction running it today. It's A cautious plan. It is a cautious strategy. of isolating Iran, which would love nothing more.

than to obliterate the United States. and their partner, Russia. and their partner China.

Now you see how this all comes in. It also hits a a night it also hits a corridor for China as well.

So this is all All of this, it creates an opportunity for these Gulf states. And Uh It's been very, very interesting to watch. And China, you know, is watching very closely. Because they're Oops. Pretty n uh unofficially.

aligned with Russia and Iran.

So this is all very interesting stuff. And that's what I've been Uh most interested in in looking as all of this plays out.

So I think it's been, you know, it's been a, I think, a very interesting. Discussion. that they've been having and to see Al Sharai meet President of the United States. Man, that was different, w way different than a year ago, wasn't it? Good night.

Way different.

So we'll see. He's wrapping up that trip right now. And uh We'll see how it plays out.

Now a couple of other things. We've been talking about the big, beautiful bill. We're about maybe, I don't know, how long are we away from a floor vote? Like a week away? I think they're supposed to have the first floor well, they're anticipating having the first floor vote on it in like a week.

Whether that happens or not, we don't know, but we'll see. It's supposed to be. a tax and spending bill. And um Republicans are very concerned. Because you remember when Democrats had billed back better?

Republicans are concerned. I'm not comparing the bills, but I'm comparing the process and. Uh There is some concern amongst Republicans that this bill will will go the same way. that that they're going to have an implosion. And Mike Johnson basically has to have total party support to get this done.

and we know that already they don't. you know, they they they don't. They and they don't have a Plan B apparently either. That's the other thing. We're going to talk more about this here coming up.

Yesina Lera Gutierrez of the Morena party was shot and killed on television. and the small town of Texas Tepec. In the Gulf State, this is in Veracruz.

She was running for re-election. It was a Facebook live stream, and she was greeting people of the town. There was like 20,000 people there. And like shots rang out, and someone shot and killed her right there. Just crazy.

Craziness.

So, don't use the smiley face emoji because apparently Gen Z. considers it to be sarcastic.

So, you know, like the regular, like plain basic smiley face emoji, right? They said that for everybody else, like it's a way of expressing contentment or happiness, but Gen Z, it means sarcasm or irony.

So if someone from Gen Z sends you a smiley face, I feel like they're just mocking you now at this point, right? Is that what that suggests? I don't know. I'm like, I'm curious about this. I don't know.

This is what it seems like. I don't know. Uh let's see. Oh gosh, listen to this.

So a Rhode Island man? He is bummed out because he bought a limited edition president-themed watch, right? And I don't know where he got it. Oh, it was from a place called Get Trump Watches.

So maybe don't go there. Don't go to Get Trump Watches and buy a watch because what happens is you get a watch that says rump. Oh no. Yeah, she got this pink pricey watch. And it was a limited edition to $640.

When it arrived, it didn't have the tea. It literally says rump. on the watch's face. Rump. And it's Really hard to miss because it's like a candy pink background with gold and then rump in giant black letters.

And he said, I'm really disappointed. And I guess they did, I don't know if they wanted to, like, the couple complained to the company and the company ignored it. And then, only then, when local news reached out to the Trump Get Trump Watches thing, did they offer them a coupon? and an apology.

So, maybe don't go there based on what a coupon for the love. A semi-carrying vodka crashes closes part of I-25 near Colorado City. BRB going to Colorado. No, I'm kidding. They closed part of the interstate.

I believe that we will I believe that we will I believe that we will win I believe that we will win I believe that we will win I believe that we will win What they're mad because they have a tat that's Starbucks baristas. who are picketing.

Because of a dress code. I'm trying to understand. Why they're upset. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you.

And uh that's right. What are the what what's wrong with the uniform? Nothing. Like, what are they? I don't understand.

They said that they're protesting the dress code. Per AP. Because it requires them to wear a solid black shirt and khaki black or blue denim bottoms. And then They under the previous dress code they could wear a broader range of darker colors. They said they want their green aprons to stand out.

Yeah.

A Starbucks Workers United said the dress code should be subject to collective bargaining. What? Starbucks, they said, has lost its way. Instead of listening to baristas, you make the. Oh my gosh, are you f?

Instead of making Listening to baristas who make the Starbucks experience, what it is. Wait, what is the Starbucks experience? Hold up. Let's look. What is the Starbucks experience?

My favorite is the names purposefully not being right, which I think is a gimmick. Do you ever see the thing where the guy was like, My name is Mark with a C, and they put Kark on the cup? Yeah.

And like what else? Like when you wait for forever for your over-roasted beans. Right? Is that what it is? Or I mean, I'm just curious.

Like it's I don't know. I don't get it. You're serving coffee, you're a barista. When I was a waitress throughout college, I had to wear Like darker slacks. I got a uniform shirt, but I had to wear dark-colored slacks and dark tennis shoes.

I could not wear bright colors. And I went with it because that was the rule. Businesses have the right to go. We want to make sure our branding stands out. And if you don't like it, dear sweet heavens, go get another job because it's amazing.

There are so many coffee places in the United States, Kane. There's s There's so many coffee places in the United States. It's not like a heritage thing. I have to work at Starbucks because my grandmother worked at Starbucks and her grandmother worked at Starbucks. You're making coffee.

Coffee. It's very simple.

Somebody goes, Customers don't care what color our clothes are. I don't care about hearing someone bitch about having to wear a certain attire. To make Coffee. I don't care. They said that they're being criticized because they sell styles of Starbucks branded clothing that employees can't wear.

And Starbucks said it would give two free black t-shirts to each employee when it announced the dress code. That's what I got when I worked at Hula Hands. Oh, I did. I was slinging that tattie soup. I worked at Hula Hands.

I had to wear dark, I had to wear black tennis shoes, and they were not the attractive kind. They were like nursing home tennis shoes and black trousers, and I had like a maroon shirt, and it had to be long sleeve. I couldn't even wear short sleeve. My stuff had to be long sleeve, and it had to be a button-down shirt. That's what I had to wear.

It was really unfortunate in August. Uh so the Apparently fewer than Less than 1% of Starbucks workers are even participating in the strikes. I'm just, I'm sorry, this is such a first world entitled brat problem. Can you is it Is it possible to, I don't want to protest, I just want to make fun of people in a picket line style. Yeah.

Can you, if someone's like doing that for this, can you just make fun of them while they're doing it? Like, oh, it's so sad. They don't get to wear what they want to wear at work. Man, how do you think doctors and nurses feel? And they gotta wear scrubs to operate on brains and stuff.

Wow. Like you're making Coffee!

Now, if you don't like it... You can go work at Duncan, or I even know what their uniform requirements are, or a million of these other little coffee places. Do you think it's like A bragging point. Wait, here's a question I have. This ought to be, honestly, like a Christopher Guest documentary called Barista.

I just came up with it right now in my head, where it's like, uh, Bust-in show that made fun of dog shows, and Parker Posey was in it, and it's hysterical, but it's like for barista so. Is it and the reason I am asking this, is it because Do they view being a barista at Starbucks as like snooty? Like, oh, you're, you work at Duncan, I'm a barista at Starbucks. Is that Steve, you're a millennial. Is that a thing?

Is it do you know anybody who's a barista? Is that literally look like that? I mean, it's a fancy word for a coffee house employee who literally pulls espresso. You know what's funny is that the only people I know that are still working that type of job look exactly like that. Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, is there I would be more I don't know. Like, I just I'm wondering what the specific complaint about the dress code is because they haven't stated it. They said. We're against a dress code, but they haven't stated what about that dress code is. Unpleasant or whatever it is they're standing.

It's not what we want, Kane. Right. That's literally all they're saying. Yeah.

I don't get it. They don't like long sleeves, like they don't like black shirts. They haven't said anything about what the dress code is and what their actual objections are. They're just objecting to the idea of a company having a dress code. This is a waste of time.

So barista is based on it, it originated in Italy. It's like, you know, it's a it's a person that makes the coffee, right? And it's uh it's an Italian term. And I'm sorry. But I've been to Italian coffee shops in Italy.

And I've been to Starbucks's. What you're doing is not the same. It's not. It is not. Don't sit here and try to sell me the stale-ass lemon pound cake and your over-roasted beans and be like, No, I'm a barrista.

You're pulling coffee. It's not the same. It is not the same experience. I mean, I would like to think that some of the actual bristas that are in Italy, like when they're pulling espresso, if they think it smells bad or burnt or stale, they're I'm not serving this. You don't even give us an avogadro.

Stop it! Uh So mad I have to wear these clothes to serve coffee.

So less than 1% are protesting. You cannot make fun of this stuff enough. Good night. And they're and they're mad about it. And I'm I'm I don't know.

Clearly, I'm missing something. I apparently, I don't know. All are. I just think that there's maybe, I don't know, like that, it's there, they said that. Uh yeah, they it should have been collective bargaining.

What? Go work somewhere else then. I can't. Man, okay, so sidebar. Because this really puts me in the frame of mind.

I've been watching this sci-fi show. Basically, about an alien invasion. I don't really like watching a lot of TV, but it has to be engaging. And if your first 60 seconds isn't good, I'm not watching. Like, if I take a bite of food and it tastes bad, I will spit it out on my plate and I will not eat it.

I'm like, you know, life's too short. You know what I'm saying? Like, if I have bad coffee, I'll be like, this tastes like Satan made it, and I'll slide it back over. Anyway.

So I've been watching the show. It's called The Eat or Not. And it's Is it On Netflix? I can't remember. Yeah, it's on Netflix.

It's an Argentinian show based in Argentina.

So there's subtitles. Never do a dub, ever. Dubs suck, they're horrible. Uh but the show is called The Eater Not. And it's non-woke at all.

There's no woke, but it is so good. It's very brilliantly done. And my kids one of my kids in particular, 'cause I was talking about like, man, if this was happening, I would already be like a warlord and I would have all this like like shut down and I'd have a gate and I'd have blah blah blah blah blah blah rolling out and my people are resources, you know, harvest and, you know, and my My son was like, you're not allowed out of the house. And I just this makes me want to fast forward into that world. Oh.

Right? Through all the asteroids, smod, everything else. Let's just get right to it, right? But um This kind of stuff. It puts me right there.

I'm like, this stuff wouldn't fly. Like, if you're, if, if it's not enough for you to be concerned about during Armageddon, then maybe don't get upset about it right now. Right? I feel like that's a pretty Good measure. Use the Armageddon yardstick.

Are you going to be mad about this if you're dealing with an alien invasion and a pole reversal? Because if not, shut up. Armageddon Yardstick's a dope band name. Dude, right? That is actually a pretty good band name.

Now that I think about it. But the Eaternaut is fabulous. It's it's so good. It's such a good oh, it's so good. But anyway, I'm like, I could I could swing that.

I mean, it's sure I'll fight aliens and whatever. I could I can hang I could hang with that. But at least I won't have, you know, people complaining that they have to wear a certain kind of shirt. while they're pulling coffee at the Starbucks. Would you want somebody like that making your food?

I don't care about the attire of the person who's making my food. I don't either. I don't care what accompanies little tests. I just want to have the time I'm supposed to get it. I just why is it thirteen dollars for like a regular, you know?

I don't get coffee at Starbucks because ew. It took me like two visits to figure out the difference between Venti and Grande. Because Grande's supposed to be large. That's what Grande means. And then Venti's only 20, and it's like, that's not very large.

Well, you're not supposed to have that much coffee. But Venti's the largest. Like, nobody drinks. Like, that's only Starbucks made. Giant.

You know, garbage sizes like normal. It's not supposed to be like that. Like, your coffee should not be cold by the time you get to the end of it. That's bad. That means you've been given too much, and that's stupid.

But I always like more coffee. I'm not going to get it. Then you can have several different shots of it. I like espresso or just like an Americano. I want it black and bitter like my heart.

Save your stupid sugar and your milk that just reduces the intensity. Yeah.

So anyway, I could not get over that story. I was fascinated by that, and I absolutely had to share that with you. Did you hear about the accused Venezuelan hitman who was allowed in the United States and given a work permit by Biden despite the fact that he was wanted for four murders? Yeah, that guy. Did you hear about him?

Just a Just a regular. Just a regular dad. Anthony Fabian Marin Latore was nabbed by immigration and customs enforcement in Grapevine, Texas, Kane. Right down the road from us in Grapevine on May 2nd, he was literally wanted by Interpol for four murders. And he was a lieutenant.

In the El Chemu gang. Yay! Yeah.

Biden gave this guy a Venezuelan gangbanger. A work permit. even though everybody knew that the dude was wanted for multiple murders. He was arrested In Grapevine, Texas, Kane. And he, when he, a month after he crossed the border, He showed up in Dallas for a required check-in and he was given a notice to appear in immigration court.

He was given a federal work permit issued in June 2023. He applied for asylum and for protected status. You're a murdering gangbanger, and you applied for asylum.

Now, you could say, well, you know. It was really difficult to ascertain whether or not he was wanted for murders because, you know, the Maduro regime wasn't exactly working with the Biden administration to give honest records at the time. Yes, which is why. You just don't allow people to enter illegally. And they were being no they had no information on any of these Venezuelan.

People coming in. And so they were just the Biden administration required ICE agents, border agents, to just release them regularly into the gen pop.

So, literally down the street from an elementary school in Grapevine, Texas, a gang-banging, multiple-murderer Venezuelan was arrested here illegally. No joke. May second, Kane. May 2nd. I'm not saying that this is how you get the movie falling down to become reality, but.

I mentioned yesterday. How, uh In Virginia, because of the federal employees, they're looking at like maybe losing 32,000 jobs this year, according to an economic forecast from UVA's Weldon Cooper Center. And it's these are these are government. Jobs, you know, because we're government's too damn big. That's crazy.

So we're cutting. The federal workforce. That's what this is. And everyone's like, oh my gosh, it's going to affect Virginia's unemployment, et cetera. And so now.

According to a Cook political analysis, The Virginia governor's race has moved from toss-up to lean Democrat. Because of this.

So this is why Republicans are scared. of austerity. They're scared of reducing government. They're scared of actually cutting anything because of stuff like this. Honestly, It is to sit here and hold taxpayers hostage because you want to work for the federal government, blank you.

Mm-hmm. Learn to code. I have, no, I don't feel bad. I don't feel bad at all. I and I feel like, because I've had a couple hate mail, pieces of hate mail about it.

And they're like, you're just so mean about this. No, I'm not. How dare you try to shame me, the taxpayer? How dare you? Me and everybody else.

Clearly, there's a massive redundancy, and there is a government's too big. You can't be a conservative and not think that. That's just the way it is. It is not my fault. if someone put all their eggs in the federal government basket.

These people aren't going to have jobs anyway because the American people are going to be bled dry financially.

So you have Abigail Spanberger. And win some Earl Sears.

Some of the Earl Sears stuff has to do with primary stuff, and I'm so done with the people who would rather rule over ashes than I just don't get it. But um I mean, I can't believe that Spamberger's that close to uh Sears. That's just mind blowing to me. And They've reclassified it as Lean's Democrat. It was toss-up, now it's Lean Dem.

Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Now, that's already going to be, that will be used if that's an actual real loss. That is going to be upheld by the media. As uh a uh sign of things to come.

As it pertains to midterms. Tomorrow we're going to talk about how. We're going to talk about SCODA stuff tomorrow. And we're also going to get into Uh Iana Presley is demanding reparations. Yeah, that's new today.

We're gonna dive into that as well. In the meantime, today's stupidity came. It is AOC. It's all hyperbole. While she's saying all this hyperbole, she's claiming it's not hyperbole.

Listen. It kills women. It kills women. To defund Care, reproductive care. It kills women.

To restrict it, to ban it, to defund it. No, it does. And this legislation will kill women. Nope. No, it won't.

That is not a hyperbole. That's not. It is a hyperbole. And just because you've got a dictionary doesn't mean that makes it so.

So tomorrow, we've got SCOTA stuff. We're going to be talking also about reparations. That's a big thing. Democrats keep going back to the stupid well. All of that.

So much more. Have a great night. Back with you tomorrow. Subscribe to chapter and verse, YouTube, Facebook.
