Tragedy In Minneapolis: What Went Wrong, Media Reaction & A 'Transtifa' Conversation'

Liberty Nation with Mark Angelides. From shifting embarrassment to potential. Presidential contenders. This week's special edition of Liberty Nation Radio has it all. Make sure to tune in.

Author, columnist, managing editor of LibertyNation.com, podcast host, and conservative policy advocate. Dismiss history at our herald. Liberty Nation with Mark Angelides. So, this is the latest that Just horrible news, horrible news to start. Minneapolis, a uh shooting.

Took place at a Minneapolis Catholic school. This just all started coming in this morning. It happened about in the 8 o'clock hour. First week of class, and apparently this was the day that they were doing their mass, it's Wednesday, two children. That's the confirmed fatalities from law enforcement.

thus far, an eight-year-old and a ten-year-old. And the investigation, as you heard the chief of police there say, is ongoing. And They are still. I mean, thankfully, you know, the area is contained at this point. There was a lot of speculation as to.

Um you know who this individual was how they got into the school and If Which I still think is something that they're going to confirm: whether or not this individual shot themselves, or if it was police officers, or if it was maybe a school resource officer on campus. And obviously, we're going to get that information later. And I'll caution everybody as we do every. uh single time rarely. I mean I've been on air for many years And when these incidents, when these horrible tragedies take place, We're not going to speculate.

We're going to give you what's been confirmed only. I dislike the speculation because there's so many, it's just too much out there. And I think it's best to stick with facts on this.

So, welcome to the program. Horrible start to this Wednesday. Dana Lash with you. We're at the top of this. First hour here, and this was the This is the horrible, unfortunate.

unfortunate news that we're all dealing with today. Annunciation Church Two children killed. The perpetrator is dead. There are conflicting numbers on how many others are injured. I've heard anywhere from 12 to 20.

There's going to be more press briefings. The one that you just heard, which concluded moments ago, that one. That's the first one that they've had. First responders reported up to 20. injured.

And I think that's more accurate to say injured because there was a lot of confusion this morning with the media going out saying 20 victims. And immediately there were some news outlets that were reporting those as fatalities. The fatalities that are confirmed are the two children, 8 years old and 10 years old, and the other individuals have been wounded. We don't know anything about their condition yet, but they are being treated at a local hospital, which did confirm that they are accepting those patients. Children's Minnesota is treating five victims, five of the injured, and another hospital is treating other injured.

But the president is aware, he apparently spoke with the governor of Minnesota, Tim Waltz, on the phone. There have been other lawmakers that have been providing their condolences. And they're monitoring it still. The area obviously is still cordoned off as they work to contain the area. And of course, I think they're searching the the suspect's car.

There was one report, I believe it was ABC, which said that They were already searching the suspect's car, which was nearby. No word yet on if they are looking at the house. or apartment, et cetera. And there's um there's There is a, I think, a lot of speculation as to the age, but. All of that's going to come out in the investigation.

Uh but I will say This uh It's always sad to have this news, and what makes it even more grotesque is when you have the politicization of it. And There's always this discussion, you know, you, you never, you, it's just grotesque, I think, to politicize an issue like this.

However, when I hear people be absolutely disgusting or incorrect, I mean, that requires. correction. And already, you know, you have individuals that are getting over their skis on this. Before we know anything, there was one Democrat congressional member who had said, you know, weapons of war don't belong on the streets. Nobody has any idea.

No one has any idea of the firearm that's being used. I see a lot of people saying high velocity, et cetera, et cetera. For those who are wondering, well, what does it matter? The terminology, you have two kids dead. I agree with you.

But the terminology matters because different laws are invoked. And that gives you an indication as to motive and how this came to be, etc. That is why that language is important, because it does detail a lot because different laws are invoked based literally on terminology. That way, you can get an idea. You want to know: did this individual obtain a firearm legally?

Did they obtain a firearm illegally? Is it something that is not state legal? In the instance of the New York, the last casualty, the last mass fatality that they had in New York, that was a rifle that was not considered state compliant with the New York Safe Act.

So there's a lot of things that come into play with this. All of this, it's just horrific, and no parent, no parent. No parent wants to go through anything like this. Uh the examples that I had given And I just to go ahead and rip the bandaid off. CNN started in immediately.

Let's go ahead and play this. I'm loath to, but go ahead. It seemed like a rifle, he said, a semi-automatic rifle. And it went on for several minutes. Right, and look, that's not uncommon as well.

These things can shoot dozens of bullets, you know, in just one trigger pull, right? And so what happens in this case is sometimes they have enough time to reload. It's one of the most horrific things for students to be sitting. First off, this is grotesque misinformation. absolutely grotesque.

I think that that journalist, I think that that anchor should lose her job for that. There is zero excuse in this day and age. To remain stupid. Zero excuse. It is a choice.

at this point. That is not how any of this works. The quote was: Oh, these semi-automatic rifles that quote shoot dozens of bullets in one trigger pull. That is a full auto or select fire capable. Why does it matter?

Well, because I guarantee you that that individual does not have it. If that individual had it, That would have been a violation of several other laws. And you're going to find out real quick if it's off the black market or was it an FFL that violated the terms of their license, et cetera, et cetera. Do not have people on your network, CNN, that have no idea what the hell they're talking about. It is too important of an issue.

And I do not believe. A single person Who claims to care about saving lives or claims to care one iota about this issue, but yet cannot prevail upon themselves to at least get. barely educated on the issue before opening their mouths. and going off on television. Just despicable.

But of course, I would expect no better from the network that ambushed me in Florida.

Now that being said. We're going to get more information on this as the investigation unfolds. POTUS tweeted that. He has been fully briefed on the tragic shooting in Minneapolis, and that the FBI quickly responded there on the scene. The White House will continue to monitor the terrible situation.

and ask for prayers for everyone involved.

Now There's a lot of interesting information that's coming out about this as well. There are some people who are asking about. You know, the FBI involvement and police apparently were requesting federal help. There was a lot of discussion from some reports, actually. Saying that They were they're understaffed and underfunded.

Uh and as a result they need you know, some federal help with this. Uh because they they're apparently under quite a lot of the Minneapolis police are apparently under quite a lot of uh stress they had uh a violent night overnight. And neighbors, the crazy thing, there's one, this is Fox 9 out of Minneapolis, St. Paul. Neighbors said that they heard so much gunfire.

That they didn't even call it in because they thought someone was roofing on their house. It was doing roofing work on their house.

So they just didn't. You know. It's it is I think that the police chief, his words, I thought he was very clear. Uh, 17, so they're they're now town reporters, 17 injured, 14 kids, two critical, uh, and it apparently the individual did kill himself. And he did that in the back of the church.

One of the reasons why That statistic is a statistic to note. Is that it is very incredibly rare. I think it's like maybe the last I checked, and I've written two books and I updated the statistics in both, and I've looked at thousands of cases of crime, and then I looked at the rarer incidences of mass casualty incidents. Usually the individual will. Kill themselves.

It's about 99% of the time. It's very rare. If he is ever apprehended by police, less rare if police end up. Taking out the suspect.

So he apparently, nobody knows if this guy was connected to the school. They said that he's in his early 20s.

So, this gets very interesting because this was an elementary school that was connected to a church. And I think that they were trying to figure out. Is this just him targeting specifically the church, or was it the elementary school? Because remember, he went into the church. It's being classified as a school.

I think it's being called in the press as a school shooting, but he walked into the church. We're going to come back to that because that is incredibly important. Especially when you consider the copycat factor. Are you tired of doctors telling you no? Can't get affordable off-patent medications?

Now it was in July, but now all of the charging docs are all coming to light. He was trying to smuggle significant cancer research data out of the United States. The doctor has now been charged with theft of trade secrets and tampering with government records. He was busted at a Texas airport. I gotta say, I like Texas airports.

I like our TSA, they're very nice. They're very, you know, I mean it's Texas, you know, they're very nice, they're very friendly. Uh this, please let this be smod. I'm praying so hard, so fervently. Please be smod.

And don't just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now.

These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school. They were in a church. These are kids that should be learning with their friends. They should be playing on the playground.

They should be able to go to school or church in peace without the fear or risk of violence, and their parents should have the same kind of assurance.

Well, you know, thoughts and prayers do matter. Uh Mr. Mayor, and that is the mayor of uh, well, he's he's uh, I don't know his name, he's the mayor of Minneapolis, though. He was the one who rioted. Jacob Fry.

Jacob Fry. Uh this was I think he w came on right before the police chief. Yes. At the press conference that was held just a little while ago. And you know, obviously, it's a you know it's a It's tough.

But this mayor of Minneapolis, I just thought his remarks were not helpful just then, telling people that prayer doesn't work. That's your first response is to go out there and say, This is not about thoughts and prayers. These kids were literally praying. You're seriously going to go out there and tell people that prayer doesn't work. Leaders don't crumble under pressure.

I mean, you have families who are grieving the loss of their children, and others who are praying over their children as they are in the hospital right now, and you're telling, this guy needs, I'm sorry. What an absolute prick. What a disgusting Piece of work that guy is. That is your response? Get over yourself for a hot second, my dude.

You have families that are your constituents that are in pain right now. And he's trying to flex and make this about him. Telling people prayer doesn't work. He went right up. to going on the predictable Democrat gun control mantra.

and at least had the acumen to go, Well, maybe I should stop right here. But I actually, I think what he did was worse in telling people that prayer is worthless. That's what he's saying in this statement. I mean what kind of person goes out An attack. Prayer.

I don't know if I can say anything else about this on live on air right now. about that guy. Really don't. I really don't think so, so I'm going to move on. Um well maybe cooler heads prevail, I'll come back to it, but Uh that's one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen a politician do in my life.

Now, some of the latest information. Hennepin Healthcare. And I have to say, Lorraine's been doing a really good job at cutting through a lot of the speculation on this stuff because we've been wanting to get the things that have been confirmed. Hennepin Healthcare. They said they had 11 patients, two adults, nine children.

Ranging in ages, the children specifically ranging in ages from six to fourteen. Patience. required the operating room Hospital officials did not provide further details about their conditions. And The uh The seven who were in there, they're in critical. Four were in the operating room, and then some of the other non-critical, because I had.

Some other patients were taken to children's hospital and those are non-critical. And I think it's important too and and When Lorraine was posting some of the stuff earlier that the chief had said, he noted his cool and calm demeanor. Can I just point out the difference in the demeanor between the The chief of police, who was cool, calm, collected, gave you the facts. And then the mayor, who was an emotional hot mess, and not an emotional hot mess because. I'm I I'm just going to say it.

I don't think he's an emotional over this issue at all. I think that he's flexing and trying to have a tantrum to use for political purposes. Real leaders don't act like that. Real leaders don't go off the cuff emotions like that. Real leaders act like that chief of police.

That Chief of Police was just giving you the facts. He was giving you exactly what you answered questions. He was cool and calm. That is the leader. There's a time and a place to slap fight over everything else.

But by God, the time to do it is not the first press conference that you give and you have parents who are still racing to the hospital to be with their loved ones. for the love, stop it You know, these individuals that go off on television and they say some of the most idiotic things. about uh some of the terminology. Again, it's it is It Terminology is important. Because it gives insight into how this happened.

Let me give you an example.

So the New York shooting that took place was it just last month. New York has every gun control law imaginable.

Some people were upset because they didn't understand why it was important to talk about. whether or not the the rifle itself was New York compliant. New York had passed the SAFE Act. The safe that's basically a bunch of gun control cobbled together. You can't, you have to have a fixed magazine.

There's a bunch of weird stuff you can't have on your rifle. You can't buy it in New York unless it has all these things on it, right? and this individual had brought this rifle in from out state. That kind of, that's a paper trail. And it leads you into, was this person acting alone?

You know, were they acting alone? Did they have anything on their record that would have prohibited purchase elsewhere? Was it a legal purchase, et cetera, et cetera? All of that helps to build the case. That is why terminology is important.

If people don't know, I respect people. More when they say they just don't know and they're honest about it, but they want to learn more about it than the people who go out there and pretend to know everything. That doesn't, but we don't live in that kind of society. We live in a society where you're expected to be an expert on every single issue. There are times I get asked to go on Fox about an issue, and I'm like, I'm not going to go talk about that because I.

I know what I know and I know what I don't know. You have different experts in different fields. I mean, I can have opinions on stuff, but that doesn't make you an expert on an issue. But again, that's not the day and age that we live in. One of the things that the Minneapolis police chief confirmed was that the guy fired from outside through the windows.

That is incredibly weird. That is a new thing. I've never it's through the window. And then I I don't know. He I mean clearly the individual Had uh Murderous intentions.

Now, I'm waiting for law enforcement. I've been seeing the image in the name of the individual. that they're saying carried it out. because they said it was a 20 something year old Man. And I don't know if this individual had um Connections With the School of the church, because that's the other thing.

They were in the church. And They were school kids, it's connected to it. That's why it's a little confusing. Was he was he targeting the school kids or was he just Going in and targeting the church. Did he know that they had mass on Wednesdays?

Was he aware of this? A lot of questions, a lot of questions to ask.

So We're going to get to you the confirmed information as we get it. There is a lot of stuff lying around, though. A lot of stuff. Be very careful with things. I will say, be very careful.

Now The An individual in their twenties. That is that's also kind of statist that's actually it keeps with statistics And One of the things that we were talking about on break is because it had to do with school kids at a church. I hate to say this, but. you immediately have to go, Okay, well were they trans?

Now that's A question that we were kind of talking about on break, obviously, talking about the shooting that took place in Nashville a couple of years ago. But this is just how widely things have changed.

So the latest, if you're following an 8 and a 10-year-old. Uh Were killed, and apparently, the kids were in the pews. The chief said that the suspect had fired through windows, that he was wearing black clothing, that he had cargo pants, and that he had actually shot himself. that police did not shoot him.

Now, They haven't found any casings inside yet. Either. That's one of the things that was said kind of offhandedly at the press conference.

So that kind of further Goes into the report of him being on the outside and shooting through the windows. But that itself is, that's just. That's odd. That is so odd. And They said that The his vehicle was found.

It's uh being searched. They don't know about a criminal history. He's not being publicly identified yet, but there are photos and names that are floating around on social media. And I'm not saying them yet until they're confirmed because there have been so many, about 50% of the time, it's the wrong person. when it's this early on.

So just putting out there. Uh the I it it's speculation that is that is I think running most rampant. I don't know, Kane, is it safe to say? They're not happy. I still think it's a little early.

I think it's a little early as well. But yeah, from what I'm seeing, just because it's repeated a ton, I'd hate to be like.

Well, I'm seeing some reporter friends of mine who work in DC, New York, that are very well respected that are posting it. And usually they don't they're so the the Their speculation, what they're reporting. I wouldn't say speculation because they were able to apparently get.

social media accounts and everything, they're saying it was a y it was a trans. individual individual was trans.

So, we're going to have more information about that as we get it. And the people, like, for instance, John Hassan, who's a uh really good reporter Carol Markowitz. Uh she worked for New Uh New York Post. Works for New York Post. She's been on the show before.

These are people I respect, and they don't run with stuff very willy-nilly.

So Uh like I said, we're going to get this stuff uh as we get it confirmed, but I um I just, that mayor, Jacob Fry, I just cannot believe he just attacks people who were praying for the victims. of the school shooting just uh you know unbelievable i will say this if um If this individual is What is being said? And it is an individual who is trans, and they had all these threats online. You know, et cetera, et cetera. We need to have a big o-national conversation.

about this stuff. 'Cause enough's enough. This would be what, the third, fourth time? Oh yeah. I mean just and I'm not even including the trans tifa.

stuff. That happens.

So we will see, but it's uh Uh seven in critical condition. And we're following this story and bringing you the latest as we get it. And I know we have some other things that we need to touch on as well. We're still going to come back and follow this. I don't want to just keep reiterating the same information that we know.

When we get new information, I'm going to bring that to you. And including confirmation on the speculation, because. If it turns out, and again, these are people that Who are award-winning journalists, actual journalists, like-minded, but they're actual journalists that are reporting this stuff, waiting for confirmation from law enforcement. Who boy. In the meantime, some of the other stuff, this seems less important now.

I mean, it didn't, you know, the Cracker Barrel stuff. I just didn't like the interior of the Cracker Barrel. But as you know, the CEO. They ended up getting dismissed last year without warning, and a top investor called the Rebranding. uh a an obvious folly.

As you can imagine. An obvious folly. The Did you know do you want to know how much it costs for them to apparently do all this? I know it's north of seven hundred million. It's over $700 million.

I need to need to grab onto the arm of my chair.

Now, look, I do wear a tinfoil hat sometimes. Do you? I know it's surprising to hear. Shocker. But I know that there are some, as it relates to.

Where is that coming from? Your computer? It's me.

Okay. As it relates to this, I'm thinking.

Sometimes get people on the board that end up tanking businesses because they have relationships with hedge funds that have. Puts on these stock. And so if they're able to actually make the company fail in some way and the stock plummets. The people who bought in on those puts are making a ton of money.

Now, that's. I'm thinking could be part of it. You'll be part of it. Just saying, we're going to have more information for you as we get it. There's a lot of stuff at play coming out of this.

shooting in Minneapolis and we're also going to discuss Some of the domestic issues as well. I just let me put it like this. You know, we were talking about our uneasiness at the federal government taking stakes in private companies like Intel, saying it's a national security concern. Let me ask a question for you, I want you to think about it as we go to break. What if the what?

How does that not set a precedent to do that in firearm and ammunition companies? And then what happens if you get a Democrat in office that starts doing that? You see where I'm going? Keep that in mind.

Should not have guns, period, end of story. Your right to a gun is not universal, just like even the First Amendment, literally the foundation of our nation's constitution.

It's not sacrosanct. There are limits on it, and if you trip a red flag law, you don't get the gun, period, end of story. And that's Paul Morrow is a moron when it comes to this issue. This is why I don't say back the blue universally, because he's a cop with NYPD. And whenever Fox brings him out to talk about stuff, I just gird my loins and anticipate what kind of cringe BS is going to pop out of his mouth.

Just because you wear a badge doesn't mean you know everything about guns. Not at all. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. We're at the top of the second hour.

Let me just dive right into it. I heard that live as well, and I just was like, you gotta be kidding me. Every single time. There is a tragedy. Paul Morrow goes on there and runs his mouth and sounds like an idiot.

You, sir, sound like a dumbass. Shame on you If you support the Second Amendment, you don't support red flag laws. There is no middle ground here. Red flag laws require Require an abolishment of due process to work. Anyone who tells you otherwise, either A, has no idea what the hell red flag law is.

B, they have no idea what the hell gun law is. Or C, they do not actually support the Second Amendment, but they float stuff like that out to make you think that they do, so you don't question their validity and veracity when they're spinning this yarn to you. And this is the truth of it. I wrote about this some years ago. And a post.

Uh because this idea that the Second Amendment is not unlimited, I wrote about this in depth and I also write about the sloppy misinterpretations of Antonin Scalia as it pertains to his opinion in Heller. And There were certain limitations that had to do with felonious behavior, right? For example, you have You know, the majority of 19th century courts, and this is something that Scalia also had talked about. You know, when he discusses Affrighting, things like carrying unusual weapons for the purpose of intimidation, things like that. That is something that he would say is not, that is a limited thing.

The idea that there is that it's not universal and that it is limited. I mean and Is The uh Trying to argue that in this context is so weird to me. And It is only limited in the scope of you can't obviously you murder is illegal. You can't use this instrument to go and kill people. I mean, you follow the laws as everyone else follows the laws.

The limitation is the law. That is the limitation. In terms of the limitations upon the right to bear arms, anything that would be permissible, the thing that Scalia used was the tort called a frighting. Back in the day, it was called back in the day, back in the colonial times, it was called a frighting.

So if you carried around like a head axe, To frighten people. And that was the example that Scalia gave when he was giving a speech on Heller. That would be like a misdemeanor. Using the instrument outside of the scope of law to intimidate, to injure, that is the limitation. Right.

It is inapplicable. As a limitation to commonly owned firearms today. People bastardize. this idea of a limitation to argue for gun control. And that's what they're already doing now.

And I gotta tell you. I'm getting, I get tired of these people who try to masquerade. Oh, I have a badge, so you can't criticize me. You know what? I know bad cops, and there are bad cops, POS cops out there.

I sat on stage with one at Parkland. I had another one down in Austin threatened to spy on me because I called him out over red flag law and gun control. He was a big old lefty who came in from Houston.

So yeah, there are bad cops. Sure, there are good cops too. But that's why I say back the blue is not universal.

So, this idea of a limitation, there's your limitation right there. as I just explained. I get tired of this stuff. I get tired of the idiocy that relates to this.

So apparently, it does look like the suspect was a trans terrorist. I'm only going to say that I, well, I guess I'll say the name one time, but it's being identified, the guy's being identified as Robin Westman. And apparently, there is a manifesto, and he looks like a trans terrorist.

Now, uh,. I think it's going to take a long time for law enforcement to confirm it. I think it's known and I think it has been Privately confirmed. There are a lot of really good, I have a lot of very good friends who are very upstanding reporters, and they're all saying, This is the guy. He apparently had magazines that said things like kill Trump and some stuff about Israel written on his magazines.

He had like several journals. I've noticed this in Nashville. Uh That The moment it came out that the individual, and you remember how long it took to confirm all that stuff, that the moment the individual was identified as being trans. It went away. Did you remember that cane?

It disappeared. I don't want this to disappear. And I don't want The factor of there being a trans person involved in it. And the feet dragging, and I'm just assuming because that's what happened in Nashville. Everybody wanted to drag their feet with the manifesto and the identification of the murderer, and they wanted to obfuscate the motive and all of this stuff as a way to bury it.

Uh I think the moment that it's credibly Valid, that it that it is credible, that's when it needs to be th then you need to uh it it's worthy of being reported, and that's what's happening in this instance. We need to have trans control now. We need to have common sense trans control. But I am curious as to whether or not the individual was actually able to gain entry into. The uh Church.

The I am curious about that. Because when apparently, if they were shooting from the outside, were they able to get inside? Does that mean that the building was. protected. And that's something that I think is important to figure out.

I don't know. The stuff that he has written on his magazines, apparently, are oof. Uh I I I don't know. I don't know. There's a lot here.

There's a lot here to go through. We're going to have some stuff up on Substack about it as we get it, but there's a lot to go through here.

So This, the President said he's been made aware. Uh the FBI and ATF, everybody's already on scene. Don't know if this was a known person before. And 20-something years old, white guy, looks like he's got red hair, and apparently was trans. And he had made videos that are being.

pulled really fast from YouTube already. They're the s the internet's getting scrubbed and I've Found a couple of them. People that have sent them to me. Lorraine has found some stuff. There's some stuff floating around on X, but it's like the moment you see it, it's gone.

But he did a whole video bragging about apparently what he was going to do and was showing you the manifesto and showing you the firearms that he had and showing off the writing that he had on the firearms. Like, I don't know if you saw some of this, Kane. There's like every single thing. He has Like he had on the side of one, apparently kill Donald Trump, rip and tear. And then he had a couple of other things on there.

There's i there's also there's some confusing stuff that's on it. He apparently wrote the names of other school shooters on his magazines. Which gets into the copycat effect. And this is a real thing. There has been a study done on this.

Uh that was done a couple of years ago. And it looked at in mass casualty incidents, the role in media in reporting this. And NIH even actually did something about this. There's been the contagion effect, right? And as it relates to mass casualty incidents, it is a very, very real thing.

Um in in Parkland, that murderer idolized the Columbine killers. The Virginia Tech had talked about Columbine. All and they had talked about previous murderers. There's a contagion effect. People, a copycat effect.

And Apparently it looks like Kane, this is one of 'em. Yeah. I think the reporting of this, this is another reason why. I get very angry at sloppy reporting and sloppy commentary on it. because that feeds into the contagion effect.

It all feeds into it. Like, I am not going to say the killer's name any more than one time. I don't, I don't, even though I might be a small part of it, I don't want to be any part of it. Um But It is a very, very real thing. In fact, there was.

If you remember, the Parkland killer even had a video. that he made in the weeks leading up to his horrible horrible act. Where he was talking about previous school shooters, and he admired their. I don't want to say fame, their notoriety. He admired their notoriety.

It's my stop. That is so messed up.

So that is something to be very aware of. And when I see The ridiculousness on some of these networks and the commentary. I think that the media has an obligation to be careful because it does feed into the contagion effect. Absolutely.

So, the more apoplectic people are, the more ridiculous they are. That's why the common cool heads and just talking about straight facts, that's the way to go with it. Because all of this other stuff feeds into it. The Mayor Jacob Fry, that feeds into it. It all feeds into this contagion effect.

Now We'll have more of this and we're it's Uh there I don't think that there's been an update as to whether or not he actually got access inside the building. If he was standing outside, Of the building and shooting into the church windows, it seems less to me. And this is my personal thoughts on it, thinking out loud. That it seems less to me that he wasn't really targeting the attached school. He was shooting into the sanctuary.

if they were in the pews, he was targeting the church, correct?

So he knew that there was a mask going on. Did he know that it was going to be school kids? I mean, it doesn't matter. You're killing people. But.

It seemed like he was and the reason I ask this And I do think this is also important in terms of the investigation of the case. Then you have to see, okay, well is this guy's Origin of hate? Is he targeting the kids, or is it a statement on religion? Is it both? I mean, it's all part of the investigation to ask these questions.

And also, I think, too, trying to figure out whether or not he got access inside the building. Uh I think it's important because We talk, you know, everybody's going back to school, it's back to school season. And you always want to make sure that your schools are protected. And that people are able to protect themselves, and that you have eyes, and the doors are locked, and you got eyes on it. You know where everybody is.

I heard that Paul Morrow, I think, also, I started the hour off blasting him. He was talking about, well, you don't want to make it like a prison. Anyone who thinks that good security means it's a prison doesn't know a damn thing about security. I know this guy served with NYPD for a long time, but I'm sorry. Can we get him off the air?

Because I've heard so many dumbass things come out of his mouth over the years. It's sickening. He speaks like someone who does not have a record to support the byline he's given on TV. He doesn't. If you're talking about security, good security, if you know what the hell you're talking about, you don't even know it's there.

You do not even know it's there. I have been to some pretty insane places. Where the security is off the charts and you don't even know until they want you to know. That's how good security is done. You don't know until they want you to know.

And then you know.

So, people go, it's like a prison, it's like this. There's more security at a concert than there are at schools. Do you feel like you're going to a prison when you're at a concert? No. Do you feel like you're going to a prison when you're at the ball game?

No. Do you feel like you're going to a prison when you go to the jewelry store to get your wife a gift? No. Why in the hell are we acting like it's oh, it's like a prison because we're just providing basic security at a school? I am so tired of these know-nothing jackasses saying this stuff, and then they turn people off.

from providing real actual security solutions to these institutions. Y'all are part of the problem. We have more on the way. Web scammers, just scammers in particular, it's gotten so much more sophisticated now that we live so much of our lives digitally. And it's not just you, right?

Great. And Thank you. Yeah, thank you. I voted for that. Uh, let's see.

Also, House Democrats are calling on Marco Rubio to allow injured children from Gaza into the U.S. following a visa halt. No. have Jordan or Egypt or Saudi Arabia or UAE or particularly Qatar, have Qatar take them because they like supporting the government of Hamas.

So have Qatar take them. They need to stay there and have their neighbors take them. That's how that works.

So, no. Uh the Dutch are quietly shifting towards a four-day work week. Why? Is that because the government's taking over all of their farms and there's less work? I'm just curious.

I don't know. Four-day work week? I don't know. I think it's good to have a happy balance, but I don't think that's the way to approach it. But that's what they're all going towards.

It's very interesting. Uh let's see, scientists have created a new life form. Great, because the ones that we have already aren't insufferable enough. Why are we doing this? Uh apparently we've created a new life form and it's called SYN57, but nobody knows what the heck it is.

And the story that Metro UK has, it's in a stupid slide form so that they can load up the page with ads. But it's a bioengineered strain of E. coli.

So we created a a strain of E. coli.

Well that explains people like Jacob Fry. He's a bioengineered strain of E. coli who promptly goes out towards the microphone and blames attacks prayer.

South Park is going to skip some weeks for a stretched out season 27. Paramount is a-okay with that. Yeah, they probably already knew and they still give them a billion dollars anyway.

Maybe they're going to college. They're not old enough to carry a handgun, but they're old enough to live by themselves and be targeted. You want to make sure that they're able to defend themselves. Especially if you've got municipal restrictions, private prop, whatever. This is where the burner gun comes in.

Burner shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away. There's two versions: the SD, the most popular model. I prefer the CL. Because it's more concealable. And it's lighter, and you're not losing any of the ability for target acquisition, any of that stuff.

There's no recoil with this at all, whatsoever. And when you consider that stun guns only have one or two rounds, that Bruno CL, you got a 15-round shot capacity per cartridge. Legal in all 50 states. There is no background check, there is no permit, there is no fee, and it can be shipped directly to your door. It doesn't care about gun-free zone signs.

It is accessible to everyone. And I think it is incredibly smart to diversify what you use in terms of self-defense instruments. You have different calibers, you have different blades. You need to have an option when you are entirely disarmed, but you got to be a big kid and you still got to go there.

Keep your finger on the pulse with a Dana Show podcast, delivering timely news with insightful analysis whenever you want, straight to you on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Biden administration had given 11 billion dollars to Intel, giving it to them. Done. Corporate just gift.

And you turn that into really, you know, it was like less than five minutes of conversation. And Intel agreed to give us 10% of their company, which of course was worth... $11 billion.

So it's not socialism. This is capitalism. If you give someone $11 billion who's just building an America, they're not doing something special, they're building an America. And their CEO told the president. He didn't need the grant.

And you said, well, then why don't we get something for it?

So this is what I think a lot of the argument is. And one of the things that we were trying to understand, because that's Howard Lutnick, and he's saying, oh, no, it's not socialism. You know, we just got this $11 billion. We didn't pay anything for it. That's not what I'm hearing from a lot of people who work in Economics and investing, and that's not what the Financial Times said either.

So, we wanted to bring on an actual expert because I don't want to see the Amtraking of different. Is it exaggeration to say that? I don't know. Let's ask Carol Roth. Everybody knows our very good friend Carol Roth.

She has the most beautiful hair of anyone on television. We love Carol. And she's also an amazing author. You Will Own Nothing. This is a horror film.

It should be a horror film in addition to a horror book. You Will Own Nothing, Your War with a New Financial World Order and How to Fight Back. Literally terrifying book. I've read it. It's genius.

And she also has her newsletter at CarolRoth.com/slash news. And she joins us now. Carol, is that. Is that an exaggeration to say, or am I wrong? Because it feels like it's like the amtracking of a private company.

And maybe I'm misunderstanding something about this that you can set me straight on. All right.

Well, before we get into the important discussion of socialism, I do have to say that the bangs are fire and I'm loving your new hairstyle. As a hair expert, I couldn't let that just go by without saying so. I'm putting that on my Twitter bio now from Carol Ross. She says this. Thank you, my friend.

Now that we have that out of the way, so this is a very nuanced discussion because yes, the Intel did get money from the Biden administration that was given as part of the CHIPS Act. There was a bunch of money that hadn't yet been given, but was theoretically allocated under that act. And then there's a portion of money that is coming out of the Defense Department's budget that is now going to Intel. And obviously, if you're going to give them money, it is better to get something in return than to just give them money. Although theoretically, you prefer perhaps to incentivize them via tax breaks than giving them taxpayer money, especially when we're $37 trillion in debt and we have to pay an interest rate on any additional money that we borrow from our massive deficits.

But you have to go back at the same time and just challenge the premise is why are we giving money to these companies? Companies. I understand that chips are an important part of national defense, but Intel is a company that's been struggling over the past five years. Their stock is down about 50%. And this is a CEO that the president had called out as not being a good leader, perhaps having ties to the CCP.

So, how do we change on a dime and saying this is a company that is mismanaged? Let's take taxpayer money or even worse, let's finance and add to our deficit and add to our debt and go and give money to this company. And I think that's where the discussion needs to be had. Yes, maybe it was going to go there anyway, so it's a better outcome. But, you know, I know a lot of small businesses, Dana, that would really like to get billions of dollars from the government.

And for some reason, they're not getting it. In fact, many of them are getting slapped with tariffs and the like and additional barriers. And so, you know, this is not one of those situations that's all good or all bad, but eventually we have to kind of challenge. The premise that the government is not a venture capital fund. That's a great point.

That is, it is not a venture capitalist fund. That's a very good point with us. I mean, 'cause that makes I mean we are Technically, our government is now the largest shareholder. For Intel. about You know, what that could mean for other companies under other administrations, like for instance, like guns and ammo.

I mean, we've had these, you know, the Biden administration was going after Glock and Smith and Wesson and all of these other firearm manufacturers. And I think, well, what happens if we, heaven forbid, we have like a Gavin Newsom, you know, in 2028 or something? Does this do enough to set up a similar action being made against any of these other companies where the government wants to come in and kind of do something similar? Yeah, so obviously the precedent was set before this. You know, the Biden administration, and certainly we go back to other administrations that have done bailouts and the like.

So, you know, it's not completely unprecedented. But that being said, I think the precedent that we'd like to set is the government getting out of the way. This opens the door, not just for Newsom, but for other things that look a lot like corporatism instead of capitalism. There was something that was floated out, I believe it was by perhaps Lutnick, that maybe the Defense Department is going to take stock in some of these defense contractors. And when you have these alignments where the government is now dictating what these companies should do or picking winners or losers or saying, hey, we're going to benefit if we go to war or something like that, that's not a great outcome from the American people.

And we have too much corporate. In the country as it stands today, we'd like to be setting a precedent that moves away from that, not doubling down. And so it just, even though he didn't initially start the precedent, it's just funny to see a quote-unquote Republican doubling down on something that if the Biden administration did it or Newsome or some other person with a D next to their name, I think we would all be very critical of that. I agree with that. I agree.

I think we would. We're talking with our friend Carol Roth. You can find her at Carol JS Roth on X. I got to ask you about the whole, what is it, the Fed governor, the Cook, the lady that was fired. Uh Mortgage fraud.

I just feel like that maybe you should be on the up and up with all your financial dealings if you're going to be in the Fed. I just, if you're going to work for the Fed, I just feel like that that should be a basic requirement, you know. Yeah, it's a fairly low bar. You would think one would want to do that. I will say, you know, these are just allegations at this point.

We don't know exactly what had happened. And, you know, people also, you know, could do something and not realize what they're doing. You know, something could be a primary residence and then you change things around and all of a sudden you're living in a different place and you kind of forget and you go back and forth.

So we give the benefit of the adept, the doubt that maybe it wasn't intentional fraud. It was just something that was improper and boneheaded. But the thing is, Dana, that there is precedent within the Fed that when these kinds of things happen, that they handle it internally. Between 2021 and 2022, there were three different Fed governors that were pushed out internally because of stock trades that they made that were questionable or financial disclosures. This was Kaplan, Clarita, and Rosengren.

And they handled that internally because it didn't look good. They didn't want that to be a stain on the institution, which has enough problems as it is.

So, the right thing would have been that when this was surfaced, the Fed, the Board of Governors itself should have put pressure and said, Look, regardless of whether this was intentional or not, if this happened, you should stay. Step off, you should resign. And instead, that hasn't happened. And so now it's gone up to the president. And in doing so, it makes it look like it's political more than just, hey, we're trying to do the right thing here.

Now, at the same time, this was exactly, by the way, what they did to the president in New York when he put a disclosure when he was applying for real estate loans, you know, quote unquote, over-inflating the values of properties, even though many people disagreed with that. And so, you know, it's hard to argue on one side that, oh, it's bad when the president does it, but it's not bad when a Fed governor does it.

So I think at the end of the day, She should not be there. I just wish that it would have been unfolded in a way that was a little bit more graceful and didn't look so political and was handled from an internal standpoint. That's a good point, handled a little bit better because, yeah, with it being out there so much, it does give the suggestion that it's politically motivated. Speaking of politically motivated, Jerome Powell. The Fed rate All right.

Whoa. I know I ask you this every single time you're on. Are we going to see a rate cut, Carol? What's happening?

So it's interesting. You know, there's this whole political thing going on. It's, oh, you know, Trump's now going to, you know, he's going to get control of the Fed Board of Governors. But that's not the whole FOMC, the Open Market Committee. It's the governors, plus it's the head of various banks.

New York always has a permanent spot, and then there are four other of the 11 remaining heads of Fed banks around the country that rotate.

So you have to get not four out of seven, you need to get seven out of 12. That being said, that in the recent Jackson Hole meeting, which we have to kind of ask ourselves, why does the Fed need a meeting in Jackson Hole at a five-star resort? That's a discussion for another day. But it sounded from Jerome Powell like he was getting what they call more dovish, that he was leaning into a potential rate cut into more accommodative policy. That being said, there is more data to come out before that meeting.

So, you know, the chances right now, based on the prediction markets, what investors think are somewhere in the like 80% camp for September and the 40-some-odd percent camp for September. But, you know, if they cut, the likelihood is they're going to cut a quarter of a percent. And I'm not sure that that's going to be anything more than symbolic that, oh, you know, there was some sort of a win here, because based on where rates stand today, I don't. Think that a quarter of a percent is going to do much for the economy. And the Fed, they control short-term rates, but the longer-term rates and a lot of the things that impact things like mortgages are really set in the broader market by supply and demand.

So that doesn't mean that all of a sudden we're going to get a change. We need a very big move from them. And then we've got to hope that the market follows along. And the last time that the Fed did cut their rates, the opposite things happened for those longer-dated securities like 10-year, you know, 10-year notes. That actually, the yield on that went in the opposite direction.

It went up instead of down.

So it's not a guarantee that the policy outcomes that everybody's hoping is actually going to happen just because the Fed cuts, you know, whether it's a quarter of a percent, a half a percent, or otherwise. Because it sounds like it's not really going to move anything. That's really not going to move the needle yet. Yeah. You know, if it starts, but then you have to remember sometimes that what you think might be good news could be bad news.

If they start to cut aggressively one after another, then there's a concern of, oh, are they seeing something in the economy that's bad? And then that kind of creates its own self-fulfilling prophecy.

So, you know, nobody wants to have too high rates. Everybody would like for mortgages to come down. But there are other ways to do that. And I'm not sure that just, you know, Slamming the Fed, who are useless and should be slammed, but not necessarily just on this, is going to get the desired outcome that everybody thinks that they're going to get. That makes sense.

It's time for Florida Man. Florida man who is upset with his mama. Over money, runs straight up into a 74-year-old victim because he was just there. That's what he told the police. He was at an intersection.

This is Hernando County. Sheriff's Office said, Is it quasi or quas? Quaz LaVarne Simmons drove into a 74-year-old man, that's a name, 74-year-old man sitting in a chair. At the intersection of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Boulevard, just going through the Chris Rock jokes about that. And it was at 10:45 a.m. on a Sunday. It's a church day, it's the Lord's Day. The victim clearly was severely injured in his legs and he's got head trauma.

And apparently, according to the police, Mr. Simmons was upset with his mama over money and just out of a fit decided to run into this fella sitting there in a chair at an intersection.

So he's being charged with all kinds of stuff and he's going to jail. Can you imagine? A Florida man was arrested after a two month hold. Overdoses. On fentanyl And cocaine.

Come on. The infant's in stable condition. A two-month-old baby. Deputies arrested Clifford Trunick, Uh Charged him with child neglect, grave bodily harm, possession of cocaine, possession of fennel, tampering with evidence. Uh they notified uh But I'm How does that even happen?

I mean, I guess the baby can just be around it. and be exposed to it that way. I really don't know how a two month old ingests cocaine and fentanyl, I've I've got questions. Kids are always hands on the ground, hands in their mouths. Yeah, the two-month-old can't really move all them.

I mean. you know, they can yeah, do that, but it's like How what did they touch that they got That's how irresponsible the parents were. Oh my gosh, I can't even deal with this. This is insane.

So that's uh that's such a heartbreaking story. Uh, let's see. Also, we have a couple of other things here. Mm. Not very neighborly.

Outdoor life says a Florida man was arrested for assaulting kids fishing in a nearby in a neighborhood pond. Seven-year-old Florida man, he was arrested for assaulting two kids who were fishing in a pond. This is in Naples, Collier County. He was taken to jail for one kind of battery. He got mad at the 12-year-old and the 14-year-old for fishing in a community pond.

The pond's behind their house, behind his house. He chased them down the street, and then he pushed the 12-year-old, grabbed him by the back of his neck. The dad says he saw a video of the assault recorded that the 14-year-old recorded on her cell phone. And he said he's 12 years old. They filed an arrest report.

Man, I don't know if you're that dad, I saw that video. Oh man, I wouldn't be calling the police, I'd be dragging that fella in the street. That's a promise. That he'd be begging for the police to come at that point. But I don't know, he doesn't apparently like.

He even though it's a community pond. And there's like a trail around it. The guy still thinks it's part of his property. You shouldn't have bought your house there then. You dummy.

You shouldn't have done that. We got more on the way. Third hour of the program up next. We all know that feeling. You finally manage to get away on vacation, and the worrying starts.

It of course makes me think about guns and all the work we've done to ban these. um automatic rifles and to do something when it comes to Um um The background checks and everything, and we keep getting thwarted. We were able to pass. a limited measure on a bipartisan basis.

not enough to stop something like this.

Well, that's just asinine. That's Amy Klobuchar, who you sound like a ditz. She sounds like an absolute ditz. I'm not going to be kind in my language and going after these people who do this. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you.

We're at the top of this third hour. You can watch us do the radio program, Channel 347, DirecTV, the chats at Rumble. First off, they are one of the, they have tons of gun control laws in Minnesota. In fact, every town ranks them 14 in the nation for their strength of gun laws. They have the ERPO slash red flag laws.

They have all of it.

So here you have, once again, a mass casualty incident where red flag laws failed to prevent it because you don't need red flag laws. And by the way, do not call yourself a supporter of the Second Amendment and then simultaneously say that you support red flag laws because you cannot. The Only way. That red flag laws work. is to utterly demolish due process.

And if you think they're going to just stop with guns. Wow. I have a bridge to sell you. That's just one variable. You are considered guilty until proven innocent.

And then you have to pay for your court fees. You have to pay for everything to clear your name and get your property back. That is how red flag law works. There is not, well, if we can get a little bit of it and it's still observed due process. You can't have a little bit of it.

And the asinine thing is that there are already numerous legal pathways to prevent dangerous individuals from. Purchasing or possessing firearms, but lawmakers want you to remain ignorant of those, and they hope that you don't take it upon yourself and use your free will to get on this handy-dandy thing called the internet and look up how unbelievably easy it is to go through that process because you can do it, it is possible, you have to follow through. And they want you to think that it's easier to just not have to do the work and make everyone give up their due process rights, which, again, as I just previously said, it's not going to be limited to just guns. That's where it starts.

So the state already has all of this stuff. They already have the, they have like a. storage laws They have red flag laws, they have all of it, and once again, it didn't prevent anything.

Furthermore, because the church is attached to a school, you also have federal. Gun laws that come into play here. You're not allowed to have firearms on a school campus. That's been a law for over 30 years now.

So I don't know what law she's talking about. And then she says, Automatic fire. What is she talking about? All of these people think that every Semi-automatic. weapon is a full auto and it is not.

In order to get a fully automatic firearm, you have to get a tax stamp. It's an NFA item, and NFA stands for National Firearms Act, and we can go on and on. I just think that if you're a lawmaker and you have, I think you should be tested on this stuff before you're allowed to run for office, frankly. I think that just in order to have to pass Pass an English competency test and be able to read road signs to get a commercial driver's license. I think that you should have to take a test on the Constitution and firearm law and existing Second Amendment knowledge in order to be able to run for office.

Because if you're not. Familiar with existing law or constitutional affirmations, then why in the hell are you running for office? You have no business doing so.

So everything that she said there was incorrect.

So we need common sense trans control. Because this is another individual who is trans. The person's first name, I already said their last name, is Robert. They changed it to Robin. And apparently, some of the other stuff that's coming out is, I think the.

Some of the other stuff that's being reported, the uh the Association to the church/slash schools that the killer's mom apparently used to work at the church. She announced her retirement. This is back, Lorraine found this back in 2021. Church of the Annunciation announced her retirement. And.

That might be the association. He had already put together apparently numerous. Journals and he had a man a multi-page manifesto. He had all kinds of stuff written on his magazines of his firearms. He apparently had school shooters' names written in white on the mags.

He also had, like, you know, Kill Trump written on one of the magazines. He had stuff about Israel written on one of the magazines. He posted incredibly racist stuff online. He, uh, I mean, I mean, just went on and on. He also decided to name-check my friend Brandon Herrera.

which is asinine. Uh and I'm sure that um That's people are going to try to comfort him over that, unfortunately. But This, I mean, and he did like, he had like brain rot type stuff, all kinds of stuff. He was anti-God, anti-Semitic, hated Trump. Idolized school shooters.

He had a lot of issues.

So there's a lot that we don't know. We don't know. And there's a really disturbing video that was out of this guy where he was showing off all of the. That's why we know he has all of these magazines with this stuff written on it because he showed it all off on video. That's been confirmed.

And it's also now appearing in the press. He did a video, he was wearing pigtails in the video where he was showing it off. And he was turning the pages of a red notebook. He had apparently a diagram of the church. In one of his journals, he had diary entries that he wrote in English and in Russian.

And he was maniacally giggling through the video. He posted, I mean, he's been posting online for about a Crazy stuff for a while, and he was obsessed with the Sandy Hook killer. Newtown, Connecticut. He was obsessed with the Sandy Hoe killer. And I gotta say, a lot of this case sounds very similar to the Sandy Hoe case.

If you remember, and I'll only say his name once, Adam Lanza was very seriously disturbed. His parents, I got, oh my gosh, I felt like the whole country coming after me for saying this, but it's true. The parents were just as guilty as he was in this because the mom knew that he was incredibly dangerous, gave him a gun anyway. Gave him multiple rifles, knew how incredibly dangerous he was. Apparently, they did not seek further help for him.

He was on psychotropic drugs and all this other stuff. The dad apparently was MIA and he ended up stealing a gun. Weirdly enough, he didn't use one of the ones that he had been given. He stole a gun from his mom, killed her, and then went to the school and shot up the classrooms. But there's a lot in that case that sounds very, very similar to this.

And I always ask, well, what about where are the parents? How did the parents not know about any of this stuff? I don't care if your kids in, if your child is in their early 20s, you still. Stay in touch with them. Uh It's just weird.

It sounds very, there's a lot of similarities in these cases. The left immediately wants to make it about, I think they're trying to make it about, you know, too many firearms, you know, all this other stuff, the same stuff that they always do. But nobody knows how he obtained these, his weapons yet. Nobody has any idea. That's why it's important to get the terminology right because certain laws are invoked.

He couldn't have had full auto because you can't tell me there's, I, I don't, he wouldn't have, they're incredibly expensive already by nature of the NFA classification. But I mean it seemed to be just a semi-automatic rifle. Nothing that he showed in the videos is full auto. Uh so uh I'm curious, how did he get it? Where did he get it?

Um Was he on medications? Was he seen? Was he in professional help? Like, what was the situation? And a lot of people, obviously, I think, have that question as well.

So I don't know. There's a lot of stuff that still needs to be, that I'm sure we'll get as it goes on. But yeah, these apparently. He Was outside shooting through the stained glass windows.

So From everything that I have read yet Have read at this point, he didn't get inside. He apparently also barricaded. the doors. They found Uh two by fours. on the doors to prevent people from getting out.

And on one of the 2x4s, apparently, and this is what the chief said in the first press conference, that they had 2x4s across the outside of the doors on the side where he attacked. And one of the videos that he has shows a 2x4. and it says no escape written on it. I'm assuming that's the same 2x4 that he used.

So I don't even know if it's a case of him having gotten access to the inside of the structure. It seems like he was just on the outside of it. And that's, you know, that's kind of, he was on the outside of it.

So uh He had an absolute obsession. with mass killers, an absolute obsession. and he had a manifesto. He appeared on his mom's Facebook page a few times, and he killed himself when police arrived, which is in keeping with about 99% of these cases. The only thing that we that could be seen, he had a semi-automatic rifle and a shotgun in his videos.

And the magazines all had words for like uh it all had like the stuff about Trump and then for the children written on them in white.

So an obsession with mass killers, And we still don't know how we got anything. We don't know which, you know, I'm sure we will get that. uh later on. But oh yeah, all of the stuff that I saw floating around and that my friends were reporting or were very cautiously posting is all true.

So he was trans and was obsessed with mass killers To the point where he apparently wrote a lot about them and he had one of the magazines in his video, one of his videos that he made, one of the magazines that he had had all of the names of the school shooters that he liked. I um I man, I don't even know. That's and his original name was Robert, and then he changed it to Robin. Because trans.

So now it's okay.

Well, what was the motive? What. There are echoes of Sandy Hook in here. There are echoes of the Nashville. Ah, yeah.

church shooting in here where that was a trans Tifa Uh Mm. killer who went in. and was targeting kids and had a manifesto that they dragged their feet on, etcetera, etc. And I don't know. It's just, this is sad.

It's so sad. There are, this is part of the contagion effect, though. This one it seems like he's trying to borrow. from all of these other previous tragedies is what it seems like. And um I don't know, the the manifesto There's not going to be any hiding of the manifesto this time because it's on video.

and it's clear enough that you can read it. I haven't read all of it. But I was reading some of it because you can pause the video. You can, you know, whether it's on your mobile device or your computer, you can make it fill the full screen and you can read it. It's pretty clear.

Oh man.

So I mean don't you think so, Kane, this is like Sandy Hook and Nashville. elements of both of them in one Again, it's a you know an emotional situation, but this kid Oh, he's in his kitties, in his 20s.

Well, yeah, but I mean, 20, what is he, 22? Yeah. But this kid, to me, is a kid. He hears his. Lieutenant Governor and his Attorney General in Minnesota.

Say things like the trans community is under attack, and that these type of things. are horrible and that they've got to fight. you know, to protect trans kids. This is what the administration in Minnesota has been doing. Yeah, let's play.

Can we play that? Because just earlier this week at the DNC summer meeting, this is the Minnesota Attorney General. talking about trans issues. I think we have this, do we not? Yeah.

Yeah, can we play can we just play some of that audio real quick? 44 times. And we'll sue them 44 more and 44 more after that. And we have sued them for gender-affirming care. Yes, we are not going to scapegoat our transgender community.

By the way, that was two days ago. Two days ago, Keith Allison said that. And yeah. There it is. And then, interesting, so the man, the guy named Robert changed his name Robin to Robin.

as a minor in 2020. The application, per Peter Hassan, said that the teen quote identifies as a female and once. her name to reflect That identification. We need a national conversation on the trans. Tifa.

I mean, it's time. It is time. We need a national conversation on trans Terrorism. And apparently the mom, I mean, it looks like the mom helped him change his name. The mom knew he was a minor, so he had to get parental consent.

His mom knew that he was dealing with this. And I want to know what the mom knew. I want to know what the mom knew. We all know that feeling. You finally manage to get away on vacation, and the worrying starts.

Lost all my stuff. Lost all my stuff. I just found some very, I found some sound bite that's gonna make y'all a little bit unhappy that we're gonna come in with coming up after this headline segment. All right, first up. Is this the thing that we studied?

Do cows kill more humans than sharks? The answer? Yes. So from now on, when you think of the Jaws thing, Donna. Donut, donut.

Think of a cow. because apparently we need cow week. Uh Apparently there are uh tons of people that are killed from being stepped on by cows. And it's actually, Snopes checked this when it first circulated in 2013. And then they said, actually, yes, this is true.

They said that it's they found that cal related fatalities apparently average 22 a year in the U.S. Like by bulls, six attacks by individual cows, five involve multiple cattle. 2013 Bureau of Labor Statistics at 109. That's insane. I did not even think about something like that.

Carnival cruise ship tilts amid rough weather. Oh boy.

Sorry about that. I'm not even gonna get through this whole headline segment. Oh my gosh. Apparently now a teacher who's off sick for 16 years refuses a test to prove whether or not she's actually sick. She's had a 16-year vacation.

Something bad happens, we react to it. And what people are crying for now is: how can we prevent this? How can we stop it? And the only way to stop it is to identify the shooter ahead of time or keep the weapons out of their hands. And so we're going to have to have a conversation of freedom.

versus Of protecting children. I mean, how many school shootings does it take before we're going to have a conversation about? by keeping firearms out. It's always a young white male, almost always. I mean, did anyone this morning think, I wonder if that was a theme?

Trey Gowdy. Who, if you remember, Trey Gowdy vociferously defended Hunter Biden. against being charged for falsifying. His 4473 lying on the application, his 4473 form. when purchasing a firearm while he was Heizakite and totally addicted to drugs.

And while any of us would have been busted for it, Hunter Biden, He wasn't. Because he's special. He was a Biden. That's that privilege, right? He's privileged.

Trey Gowdy, I watched repeatedly. On live television defended him against those charges. Hey, Hunter Biden's a white male, too. This is a false equivalency. It's a false choice.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. We're at the bottom of this third hour. The chats at Rumble. You can watch us do radio on Channel 347 DirecTV if you're not listening across the country.

The idea that He goes, We have to have a conversation of freedom versus protecting children. And here already immediately tells you what. That answer is. He thinks that in order to protect children, you have to ban guns. Trey Gowdy is a liberal on this.

He is not a conservative. Never has been. Don't let his southern accent fool you. Don't let the R after his name fool you. He's saying that, well, it's freedom versus protecting children.

That's a false choice. It's not. Why is it that when because a trans terrorist, enabled by his mother, goes and shoots up a church, that means the rest of us have to be disarmed so that we can be easier victims for more trans terrorists or criminals in the future. That is what he's arguing here. The problem is that Trans is a mental illness.

We are Jacking people up with hormones. We are indulging a dangerous mental behavior. We are demanding that everyone accommodate a mental illness. Go along with it. Keep, it'll make everything okay.

Clearly it doesn't. because there's an increasing number of trans Tifa going out and killing children.

So clearly that's not working. It's not a conversation of freedom versus protecting children. It's a conversation about getting off your ass and stop blaming guns and protecting children. You can't tell me that no one knew this guy wasn't messed up. You watch the videos.

This dude was messed up. And by the way, and Lorraine notes this as well. To Trey Gowdy's point, Nashville was a girl pretending to be a guy. It wasn't a white male. It was a white Woman Who wanted to be a boy and identified as trans.

What is the common element here? There's one. A mental Illness. That is manifesting itself in very dangerous ways.

So it's just asinine. Got some of the stupidest commentary that I'm hearing on cable news lately. Unbelievable. And so There's I I it's just shocking. Why don't we talk about some of this rhetoric?

Why don't we talk about how Democrats were saying that? People of faith were terrorists going after Catholics. I'm not Catholic, but they were going after Catholics, the Biden administration. Remember that? We have a conversation about some of these.

some of these uh some of this rhetoric.

So you have people going out there saying prayers don't matter. You have people on CNN saying prayers don't matter. You have the Minneapolis mayor going out there saying prayers don't matter. It is the tr it's a trans cult. You're pumping kids full of synthetic hormones.

That is, you don't even know what's happening, they don't even know what's going to happen. They don't even know how that affects anything. They just they're just gonna do it. And it is ending in disaster. It is ending in horrific tragedy.

It's horrible. It is it's incredibly sad. But there is one common denominator here.

Now I know a lot of people, I think the time has passed. To I think it's crazy this idea somehow that you can't talk about the parental involvement. Apparently, according to some of the stuff, the mom. Had uh I guess the mom went and uh trans or allowed him to change his name. He changed his name from Robert to Robin.

as a minor, so that involved That required the parental involvement there, changed his name from Robert to Robin. And the mom apparently knew. How did they not know all of this other stuff? Where did he? Did he?

They said they raided his house. It didn't look like he lived on his own. Did it, Kane? The house that they raided, it didn't look like they lived on a zone.

So, I'm just curious about all of this. And also the uh The trans killer in Philadelphia was black. But Kane, what was the uh What was the common denominator? All mentally ill. With the thought that they were not the gender they were born.

I just wanna know what the hell Trey Gowdy is going on about. With that, so it's all white men. What is he talking about? I do think that there is an epidemic of women who indulge this stuff for whatever reason. There's an epidemic of women who are indulging their kids in this hormonal abuse and this mental illness, this dangerous mental illness.

It's hard being a parent if your kid's struggling. It's hard being a parent, but you don't indulge them and make them easier in their suffering. Have the balls to step up. Be a parent. Step up.

Don't it you wouldn't indulge it if they were a bulimic? You would indulge it if they were anorexic. you would indulge it if they were cutting But for whatever reason, You want to classify this as something sacrosanct, something special.

Something that everybody has to affirm. There has been enough incidents in the past couple of years now. Where, yes, it is a growing phenomenon. of violent Trans people killing children. I always get emails.

From people. Whenever, especially after Nashville, I got emails from people who are like, Well, a couple of people would say, Oh, I have this, you know, my child's. you know, struggling with this or my child's, you know, and they they're like upset. Did I It's not my And if the truth upsets you, that's your problem. I am not Going to stop calling out the problem that is emerging because it hurts your feelings.

There's lives at stake. The mother apparently worked at the Catholic school where he opened fire, so it's very similar to Nashville in that regard. And Worked there. She had posted a photo on Facebook, I guess, when she retired. Uh and uh they threw her a retirement party.

And so They I that I that's the association with that Church. And again, it seems like he didn't even get inside. It seems like he just shot from the outside into the windows. In through in through the windows, I should say. But I gotta tell you, some of the stuff that some of this commentary.

Yeah. is just asinine. And especially with this, with, you know, well, it's always, you know, why it hasn't been. It was, you know, a black trans terrorist in Philly, you had a female trans terrorist. in Nashville.

You know, I don't know, but this idea that you're trying to make it to where. Freedom versus children, that's a false choice. Absolute false choice.

So I don't know. I mean, we've got to have I think we need a very uncomfortable national conversation. about the trans epidemic. Uh you want to talk about the contagion effect? It's very real with trans.

It is there is the contagion effect. I think we need to have a discussion about these women that are encouraging this and their children. that are driving this and their kids. Especially when they're very, very young. Jacking them up with hormones.

That's a form of abuse. Because nobody has, there's no long-term studies at all whatsoever to see what this does to their mental state. To their bodies nothing. Having cross-sex hormones. that have been are being given to young people at the levels at which they are being administered.

On top of the mental instability is a disaster waiting to happen. If you love your children, you're going to get help from them. You're not going to mutilate them. If you love your children, you are going to find the root cause of what's happening. You're not going to jack them up with hormones that are going to mess with their mental state.

That are going to mess with their brain, that are going to mess with their developing bodies. Don't tell me you love your children when you engage in abusive behavior like that. I'm sure Ike Turner loved Tina too. And if you're pissed off that I'm being dishonest about it, go to hell because I'm tired of people dying so you can indulge mental illness at the dangerous level to which you're indulging. I'm done with it.

How many more kids have to die because you got a bunch of white bitches out there that want to sit here and entertain Trans Tifa?

Someone needs to say it in the words that it needs to be spoken in. No one has the balls to do it. And I'm tired of it. How many more schools got to get shot up? How many more of these moms got to well, I just didn't know that if I just jacked him up with hormones and subjected him to physical mutilation, that he would you know that would further exacerbate his fragile mental state and they're going to go up and start shooting schools.

You didn't know? You're culpable. It's like A mother helping her anorexic child not eat. It's like a mother helping her bulimic child throw up more. That's not hate, that is fact.

You think it's hate because it hurts your feelings. because it indicts you, because it calls out your weakness. That's why you don't like it. And if you think that I am, that I have no right to be angry about this. Let me tell you something.

Maybe be blamed for ten years. For The horrible actions of evil people that you had nothing to do with. Simply because you support the right to defend yourselves from monsters like that. simply because you support the right of parents to defend their children from monsters like that. When you've walked in my shoes, you can pass judgment on the anger I have for the people who are culpable in this.

Trans Tifa epidemic. It is terrorism. It is a mental illness and there are a lot of people aiding and abetting it. including the Damn A G of Minnesota. Including all the people who have the audacity to call this mental health care.

or healthcare period. or health affirmation. You are all culpable. My guns never killed anybody, but by God, your ideology has killed a lot. We all know that feeling.
