We dismiss history at our peril. Liberty Nation with Mark Angelides. Dana Lashes of Sir Truth Podcast, sponsored by Kel-Tec. This story's crazy. Have you, it's apparently a documentary on Netflix now. Okay. The Pooh Cruise?
Mm-hmm. It's a Netflix show and it was a the Carnival Pooh Cruise and it literally, that's what it's called, don't, that's literally what it's called and it's on Netflix now. I've not watched it. You guys know how I feel about cruise ships. I'm supposed to go on one. They're not calling it. Literally they're calling it that.
Look it up, it's on Netflix. It's literally called The Pooh Cruise. But when you're, let's say you're a customer and you want to go on a cruise, you're not searching Pooh Cruise. No, but that's what it ended up becoming. Oh my god. So here's the story. The ship was to go on a four-day trip out of New Orleans through the Gulf of Mexico. On day four, they had an electrical fire. Broke out on the ship, right, and they'll, I mean everything shut down. It burned up their electrical cables. That powered everything from their, you know, obviously the lighting, the refrigeration, the propulsion, the air conditioning. You're in a boat in the Gulf, on a dark boat.
So it's like a cod map, right. They couldn't even flush the toilets. They lost all the power. They couldn't even flush the toilets and they were not able to repair. See, that's it.
That wand showing you on the simulcast. They, the entire cruise ship had to be sustained by one singular generator. So the boat was drifting like aimlessly in the Gulf for days, four days. They could, and 4,000 passengers. They couldn't, they didn't even have operational toilets.
They couldn't steer the ship at all. And they said it wasn't one of the passengers said it wasn't vacation anymore. It was survival mode.
Eat what you can, snack what you can. It was awful. Oh my gosh. And people had to sleep outside.
Oh my gosh. They ran low on food. So they had, oh, it was just, oh, it was so bad. And it was just drifting out there aimlessly. They were entirely in the dark.
Can you imagine being in the middle of the Gulf at night, totally in the dark. They had to defecate into red biohazard bags and urinate in the showers. And some said that they continued, some people were continuing to use the out of order toilets.
So everything was overflowing. People were defecating in the trash cans. They were trying to hang over the ship.
I'm surprised that people like tons of people didn't die. They said the stench was horrific. They had bedsheets where they wrote messages, we're not okay. They stood, they couldn't even charge their phones. They, oh my gosh, they, what I don't understand is why didn't they had tugboats that ushered the ship to Mobile, Alabama? Why didn't they send another ship out? Couldn't they? You're telling me we don't have any capability to do anything else.
We can literally refuel bombers in the air during 17 hour flights, but we couldn't do anything with those. Oh my gosh. So this is also why I don't really want to go on a cruise. I'm supposed to go to Norway on a boat. And I'm like, if I'm in the middle of a fjord, what happens if we lose everything? Because I will be the first to be a warlord. I'm not going to tell you.
I will immediately. You'll be like, Dana, we're in a fjord. Like there's just miles and no, it's okay.
It's warlord time. But how do you get off the boat? Like you can't climb like, you know, sheer walls of granite in the fjords.
What in the world are you going to do? It's cold up there. It's where like cold animals live.
I've never been that far north because Dana doesn't do cold. Oh my gosh, this is where it's like, I love nature and I love the outdoors. But you guys know, remember, my rule is I don't pretend to be homeless because I celebrate all of the amazing things that we as humans have done, right? I love glorified walking that they call hiking. I do all of that. I do like I'd like to go to nature to shop.
I'm a girl. So I go to nature and I'm like, I want that meat and I want that fur and I want that skin for my bag and I want this for my wall. That's how I go into nature. Oh, and like, yes, it's all beautiful, blah, blah, blah. But you know, that's how I view it.
I'm going to be completely straightforward with you and I like being out in nature and I like the thrill of stalking things. But at the end of the day, your girl wants to go home to like lights and a flushable john. You know what I'm saying? Like, I can't imagine being stuck on a boat.
Also, you're stuck on a boat with people that you don't know. You don't know what their habits are. Are they? Are they the kind of people that don't wash their feet in the shower and they just let the water run over and think that does the job? You don't know. There are people that do that. You don't know is the thing. So now after seeing this documentary, I don't know how I feel about this. I've never ever been on anything bigger than like a powerboat or a catamaran.
Not like never, never. What am I gonna do? Oh my gosh, I'm gonna be on the news. Aren't I? I'm going to be on the news.

VGW Group void for prohibited by law. 21 plus terms and conditions apply. I was talking to Kane. I keep seeing all these pictures in the press because Jeff Bezos is getting married right now in Venice. I mean, good, be a million, you know, self-made millionaire. I get it. You know, that's, that's, that's great. I think that's fine.
You can spend your money how you want to. But what I don't like are how a lot of the people that are going to this event are big-time like climate change propagandists and they all flew in private to this wedding. All of them like Leonardo DiCaprio and everybody else, they fly in private to the Marco Polo Airport there in Venice.
They had over 100 private jets that flew in. And a lot of them, like Leonardo DiCaprio, are big climate change people. And they are, they're big Green New Deal people. They've promoted climate change.
They promote a Green New Deal. Oh my gosh, but they're gonna go fly private to the Marco Polo Airport. You know, you can fly commercial. DFW, I think, now does straight from Dallas to Venice. You know, that's like, you know, that's a pretty easy, you don't have to, normally you would have to go into like, what, somewhere else in northern Rome.
Like, I don't know if you go in a Milan or if you go into Fumichino where you would go into, but you would have to go in somewhere else and then go into the Veneto region. Now you can go right right there Marco Polo Airport, direct flight, take a commercial flight, you know, if they care so much about it. No, no, they flew private though. And there's all kinds of paparazzi shots, all these jets that they're coming in.
They had over a hundred of them that flew in. Orlando Bloom is another one. Isn't he like a big and viral guy? I don't think he's as annoying as Leonardo DiCaprio is. Like, he kind of keeps to himself.
I don't mind it, if that's your viewpoint. Just don't lord it over all of us, especially if you're gonna be flying private, you know what I'm saying? But like DiCaprio, he just flies private everywhere.
And he always charters the yacht, you know, the Amalfi Coast almost every year. I'm so, like, who was it, that Ginger and his suitcase game show wife, who by the way got caught white labeling all of her products? She's, her stupid runny jam. Here's the thing, isn't jam or isn't a spread? That's what happens when your jam fails. And so you do like a spread. That's, so when your jam fails, you do a spread. And it's like real runny.
And a chef was like, she even failed this. But they, they got them out of this company in Ohio, two companies in Ohio and Illinois, that do the Bridgerton teas for Williams-Sonoma, if you've ever been to a Williams-Sonoma. And they have like the Bridgerton teas. They have a cinnamon tea that I get there that is really good. And they have it every fall. So that's why I know that.
But they're, they're, they all come out of Ohio and Illinois. And they sell them like, I think it's like $12 for 36 teabags or something. She's like charging $12 for 12 teabags. So it's like over three times the cost.
She just marked it up to put it in their stupid packaging. They're big climate change people. So all these people going, I don't mind if people go and fly private and go to a wedding because I think that all the climate change stuff is a hoax.
It's a, it's a Marxist wealth redistribution scheme. But don't lord it over all of us. Don't tell us, Oh my gosh, it's so bad to fly private. You, you know, you, you have to respect the climate. Do everything you can for climate change.
But I'm going to fly private and do all this stuff like DiCaprio does. He's the worst one. Can you remember? Didn't he do like all kinds of like infomercials on it? And he did stuff with Al Gore on it. And he was like a big promoter of the Green New Deal with, with Biden and Harris.
And I think he did some campaign stuff with Harris too, to that extent. Yeah. So they are, why can't you live what you preach?
Right? Like why don't you live with what you preach? One of the things that I think that they hate about Elon Musk, and this is kind of a weird comparison, he does actually live what he preaches. So I don't know if you've seen like they have like pictures of his properties. He's owns property, like in Austin for his baby mamas and his mama. But doesn't he live basically in like a hut in Boca Chica? That's where he and then he's like constantly, like at SpaceX or wherever. He doesn't actually stay in the houses that he has in Austin, where his like, kids live. And his mom lives. I mean, you know, and he, he doesn't preach about climate change. And he doesn't preach about all this stuff. I'm actually very encouraged that Doge is going into ATF because I feel like he's very slowly turning on Second Amendment. I think he was obviously ambivalent about it before.
But I think he's very slowly like, Mm hmm. But anyway, I you know, I don't mind people. I don't mind the celebration either with Bezos and Sanchez.
I think you should celebrate weddings, you should celebrate the biblical union. I'm all for it. Right? I'm all for it. I love it.
Do it. But just don't preach to me about climate change and then fly private everywhere and charter boats. I don't want to hear it.
Don't do that. So I'm fine with people and I, I don't care celebrating somebody's success, because it goes it because Marxists hate that. Marxists hate it when rich people act like rich people.
By the way, do you know, and I don't, I'm not like a stan of Bezos and Sanchez. Do you know how many millions of dollars they're donating to Venetian restoration efforts for all of these stupid little protesters that they have in Venice that are like, no Bezos, you realize how many tourists you would have to have, and how long it would take to accumulate the types of donations they're making in one day, to the restoration efforts all over Venice, like millions of dollars they donated to efforts like for, like some of the historic buildings, the libraries there, St. Mark's Square, I was reading a rundown, there's like all kinds of stuff, and they didn't blast it. It's just something that they did as a as a way to, it's like a, you know, it's like a billionaire's gift to the host and hostess. You know, if you go to somebody's house, and you bring wine, or something, or like a little apron or a tea towel, he just donates millions of dollars to the restoration effort. Do you realize how many tourists you would have to have in and how long it would take to accumulate that kind of cash that he's dropping to all of these charitable efforts in one day? That's why they're so stupid. They are so moronic.
He's going to, in one fell swoop, do more than these people have ever done for the restoration efforts in Venice. That's what blows the mind. They don't, they should be celebrating, they should be thanking him.
Thank you for coming in and choosing this place. They didn't bring the koru up right up to, you know, the Grand Canal. They were respectful of the lagoon. They're respectful of the tides.
They're respectful of all of it. They've had, they've been using, and they haven't always, they haven't used all the little private tenders. They like hired out all the gondolas and the taxis, and they've been paying all of these businesses in the area, which by the way, is a great thing for the gondoliers, because that's a profession that's decreasing fast. That is going away. They're like, there used to be like a thousand of them. Now there's only like a couple of hundred gondoliers in all of Venice now. And it used to be where women couldn't do it, and they have one woman doing it now because it was, it was literally traditionally not because it was designed that way.
It was just passed down from father to son. So that's like a whole profession that's going away. And they've hired and have been using all of them this whole time. What a great way to elevate that. These protesters that they weren't so, if they weren't self-absorbed little bitches, they would be appreciating this and celebrating that. But they're not. All of these people who cry about tourism, okay, come up with an industry where you can compete with the rest of the industrial nation and, and don't rely on tourist dollars to fund your every existence.
Then we'll talk. I'm just not even gonna, it's like Six Flags getting mad because people go to Six Flags to ride the rides. Stop.
This is also stupid. And it's a bunch of the same little Marxist brats. You, if you don't like it, then leave.
So I don't know. My only problem with the Bezos-Sanchez thing is, you know, people like DiCaprio who screamed to everybody else about climate change and then they charter a jet and they charter their own boats while lecturing the rest of you. Like they will charter a giant jet for just themselves.
And they come in, they had over a hundred private jets. So I don't, the ones who never lorded over climate change to everybody else, I don't care. But the ones who did, yeah, you're a hypocrite. But yeah, celebrating a biblical union, all about it. Yeah, celebrate weddings. Yeah, celebrate that stuff. I mean, for crying out loud, it's a refreshing change from topless antics on the White House lawn. You know, I'm just saying it's a nice change, don't you think? I'm out of give a damn juice today.
I am. One of the people in the chat said private planes skip TSA so everyone gets their drugs on the plane. That's actually a good point.
I mean, you can, private is the, you can, well, you can't really smuggle dogs or anything like that because they still, even with private airports, you would still have to go through customs for certain things. But yeah, that's, you know, interesting. Maybe that's why. That's a good point to the chat. But anyway, I mean, if you were a billionaire and you could get, and you were, and you could do your wedding again or you could get, or you could pick where you wanted to get married. I mean, Venice is a pretty, I don't know that I would do it in the dead of summer.
That's my, I'm like, do they know? It's, it's like July basically right now. I mean, it's hot AF right now in Venice. It's hot and it's murky and it's humid. Fall's probably our shoulder season is probably the best time, but it's peak tourist season.
Whatever. Maybe that's what they had in their calendar. But all of the people that have been hired, they hired all these Venetian caterers. They had a Venetian restaurant do, they're making Southern, they're all mad because they're making Southern Italian dishes and not dishes in the Veneto region, but whatever. And but they're, they have like all the gondoliers and they're using the water taxis and all these hotels and everything else. And they've been like, they, everybody went to Murano, apparently, and they were all looking at the glassmakers, which is another industry that's dying out very slowly. And that's like a, that is a artistic skill that's been transferred over for centuries from generation to generation.
It's stunning. They're giving it the attention that they could not buy. So celebrate that you whiny brats. So let's be real, medical freedom isn't just a catchphrase. It's your right.

It's time for Dana's quick five. So apparently zoning out makes you smarter because your brain will unintentionally learn about the world. Now granted they've only been studying neural changes in mice brains but the immediate findings are they say are helping to reshape how they understand learning. Well duh passive learning is a thing it really is it's actual thing.
So they said that zoning out according to this research your brain is learning anyway. Today and duh right duh duh duh I mean that's like kind of obvious. Let's see here we go yeah so doge is going to enter the ATF with a mandate to slash regulations. We'll see because the Senate parliamentarian is already being astute. The initial target was to change 47 regulations but the ATF and doge staffers they want to exceed that they want to go to 50 a seismic shift and that would be a major win if Congress because Congress has did not just defund it they have to undo it and this is gonna take an act of Congress to get this done. So in the meantime they can go administratively with the authority that they can and kneecap them that way and I'll take that for now so long as there's progress you know elsewhere. By the way that Supreme Court decision now has paved the way for South Carolina and other states to defund Planned Parenthood which is a for-profit they get half a billion over half a billion dollars every year in taxpayer money 99.9% according to open secrets and all available public federal election campaign filing data shows that it's actually almost a hundred percent that they it's not it's basically is that they donate to Democrats so your tax money goes to Planned Parenthood that then uses your tax money to literally donate to Democrats. It's Medina v. Planned Parenthood and it's that 2018 executive order from South Carolina's former governor Henry McMaster so that Supreme Court to kick Planned Parenthood out of Medicaid because you have birth pregnancy resource centers and other health clinics that outnumber Planned Parenthood three to one and they actually offer a full suite of services where abortion is like not that the money driver and they also do birth control pills too there so this makes perfect sense because you have other clinics that are also partnership with the state that receive money from Obamacare that do more than what Planned Parenthood does and they do it better and they're in more locations so it's asinine that Planned Parenthood gets the bulk of money and these other clinics which they shouldn't get nobody nobody should get any of this but if you're gonna give money out why are you doing it a half a billion over half a billion a year to Planned Parenthood it doesn't make any sense so that was a very good thing and traditional movie going experts say it's less than has less than 20 years as a viable business model city run grocery stores I proposed a pilot program of one store in each borough these are five stores in total the total cost of this is 60 million dollars this is less than half the cost of what the city is already set to spend on a subsidy program for corporate supermarkets that has no guarantee of cheaper prices or collective bargaining agreements or even except looking at some like Soviet Union grocery stores on every corner they're gonna be run by the government know what I'm looking at is how to solve the very clear twin crises of affordability when you go to the grocery store and food deserts which disproportionately black and brown New Yorkers across the five boroughs you're talking about cities and one of the reasons why you have a difficulty in having grocery stores in certain you know especially you know highly congested cities is the margin of profit the profit margin that they have is so minuscule this way this guy does not understand anything it is embarrassing I think that there should be like an economics quiz that's given before you're allowed to run for office because it's like being lectured to by a nine-year-old who has no concept of how the world works and this guy's in his 30s like he's a grown middle-aged man who tries to pretend that he's a baby infant baby which why did can I just sidebar myself why does the left constantly infantilize men this guy's middle-aged and they're like oh he's an infant baby mare mare mare like he's middle-aged he's like got ten years on Juan over there like what in the world dude you're not like a teenager stop it they do this with hunter they did this hunter hunter Biden's damn near 60 and they're like Oh infant baby hunter Biden me I just so weird welcome back to the program Dana lash with you we're at the top of the second hour and the chats at rumble you can also stream the radio program channel 347 on DirecTV this idea of well we're just gonna have corporate grocery stores do you all you also know that he has said to didn't he say that he wanted to like like penalize basically wider neighborhoods I know I dropped that somewhere which again is just another jaw-dropping thing yeah Newsweek had this whole thing and it's something that he actually has said that he proposed taxing I mean wider neighborhoods in New York City this is actually a proposal that he pitched he wanted to shift the tax burden to richer and wider neighborhoods he said that that would be helped you know if he secured his election in November that's something that he wants to do and it already sparked a lot of backlash obviously and he's a naturalized citizen who just became a citizen seven years ago and I think this gets into the problem with immigration immigration is not coming here and bringing the customs of your country and your your parents origin country to the United States it's about coming here and assimilating to our customs and our culture and our norms our Constitution's for instance I don't give a rat's ass if you don't like the Second Amendment if you were not born here and you're coming here and you're becoming a citizen I don't care it is part of this country's culture it is part of this country's legal framework you can accept it or you don't have to come here and frankly I don't want you here if you're immigrating here and you do not respect our Constitution if you think that there should be suppressions on speech or if you back racist unconstitutional gun control laws I don't want you coming here then stay in your country of origin because it's already what you want it to be and I definitely don't want people coming here running for office bringing these anti-american viewpoints with them this is the problem with immigration you come here and you assimilate if you're immigrating to it if you're immigrating to Ireland you don't go I will screw Ireland I'm gonna do things my way in Ireland no you assimilate to the country to which you are immigrating and you be respectful of their long-established legal precedent and framework that exists without you same thing here for the United States and this is a problem that everybody gets super sensitive about discussing they're like oh that's so mean it's not mean what's mean is the entitlement of coming to another country demanding the world on a string and demanding the entire nation absolve its legal framework to pacify you that is that's that is d-class a it's garbage it's crafts it's gauche it's all that it's all those things that's that's not how this works it's not how immigration works not how it was designed to work our founders were actually very careful about all of this in fact this I mean it's something that was touched upon in the Federalist Papers and when they were discussing the importance as it relates to immigration coming to this coming to this country and respecting the established laws and that I I mean it's just it just shocks me that so many people are just completely ignorant of historical precedent or that they have the idea that this shouldn't be something that is respected or followed or I don't know yeah this guy going back to what's his face so Zoran of for New York City literally on his website shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods so it's a race tax you're taxed for being white that is what this just came just became a citizen in the United States wants to implement here tribalism tribalism tribalism and by the way this literally was from his I mean this is like his actual stuff it's literally from Zoran for New York City stop the squeeze in New York City homemakers it still exists in PDF and it's on the Wayback Machine where they get into it this is literally from his website so for the people who are like source literally from his website it is unbelievable I mean it almost reads like when I first saw this I actually had to run it down I'm like there's no way this is real there's oh no it oh no it not only was it real but he was really proud of it he just doesn't want to talk to anybody in the media about it that's the thing so what does it even mean like you're you're how was that even in any way constitutional how is that constitutional I know whiter neighborhoods quote the property tax system is unbalanced because assessment levels are artificially capped so homeowners an expensive excuse me neighborhoods pay less than their fair share I got to stop here I actually will punch someone in the face for suggesting that I don't pay my fair share I'm not kidding you I will smash your nose to bits because you deserve it I'll take the charge it is one of the most offensive ignorant welfare things ever welfare scam artists make this argument this is from people who are too lazy to work and they expect everyone else to pay their way I could buy and sell other people's lives for what we pay in tax particularly property tax so for him to say this I I don't even think he actually owns his own property don't his parents own it I read somewhere and I think it was New York Post that he doesn't even own his own property he has no idea because he's never paid and he says the so homeowners in expensive neighborhoods pay less than their fair share the mayor can fix this by pushing class assessment percentages down for everyone else and adjusting rates up effectively lowering tax payments for homeowners and neighborhoods like Jamaica and Brownsville while raising the amount in Brooklyn brownstones oh my gosh what how do I math I have no idea about any of this stuff this is what New York voted for yeah so this is its trust fund socialism is what it is that's exactly what it is I don't know how it look I don't want salt deductions for anyone they've they're voting for this nonsense and he'll probably win if they're voting for this nonsense I don't I don't want to offset these welfare grifters in Manhattan with salt deductions we have to pay the same or a higher rate while they get a federal rate lowered because they voted to increase their local burden that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard I pay in property tax probably as much as someone does in like Los Angeles it's that bad in fact taxes in Texas everyone sits here goes oh well you don't have an income tax let me tell you something property tax and sales tax offset that quite a bit and the end of it it's not that different and our state legislature doesn't do a damn thing about it which is why I can't stand Republican Party right now and they keep wanting me to come and talk to their
