I looked at the people. They're not representative of this country. And I looked at all the brand new signs paid for sp I guess it was paid for by and other radical left lunatics. It looks like it was. We're checking it out.
The demonstrations were very small, very ineffective. And the people who were whacked out, when you look at those people, those are not representative of the people of our country. Mr President, uh besides San Francisco, I'm not a king. I work my ass off to make our country great. That's all it is.
I'm not a king at all. I mean, think about it. How in the world are you having a no-kings protest? The reason If there was a king, you wouldn't be able to have it, right? I mean, think about in monarchy everywhere else.
My gosh, if you say something mean in the UK, they come and arrest you. I don't like what you've said on the Twitters, Kane. Oh, gods and the police. Going to send the to come and get you. Take you away forever.
Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. I have no idea what's happening. It's fall. It's not 10110 degrees, so we're all in a little bit better mood.
You don't realize we slaved away for you under these lights, you know. It's not all like glitter and kittens. It's really not. I'm joking. Welcome back.
You can also join the chat at Rumble and check us, watch us do the radio show channel 347 DirecTV. But um Yeah, the No Kings thing. I didn't I didn't have anything interrupted this weekend, Kane. Most of it was legal study because I've got a debate coming up and then... I did partake of a bit of Oktoberfest per my husband's German heritage.
'Cause he has to wear the hat and the whole. He does the whole. He's very German. I had chicken wings and watched football. None nothing was interrupted.
I had schnitzel and strutel and Bunch of other things. And I'm jealous. Yeah, all the German carbs, all of them. And then an ACDC cover band because, you know, it's Texas, God bless America. But I didn't see any no King stuff.
Um I I don't even think I saw anybody with anybody with blue hair. Did you see any did you have your any activities interrupted by No King's stuff, Kane? No, not at all. Steve, I'm curious. You're out there on the eastern seaboard in the armpit of America.
Uh in DC. Beautiful architecture, though. Did you have any of your weekend activities interrupted by any multiple Colored hair people in the streets? I went golfing in the morning, so I was able to get out of there before it started, and I stayed out of it. Look at you.
Smart man. Smart. It's like also the most East Coast thing I think I've ever heard. I was golfing in the morning, just stayed away from the protests till. Until then, it's smart.
Yeah, I didn't see apparently they were out and about. I did see some photos. We do have some video. There's one video, and we're going to switch here and get into some of this other stuff, too. But I wanted to call out where, oh, goodness.
It was the one Uh it We have a million of them. We have a lot of really good audio today. It's like 110, cut 110 million thousand, Kane. But it's the, I guess they're not into gun control anymore because they were talking about shooting people. I'm not kidding, they were talking about that.
And then you also had, yeah, this is Audio Soundbite 23. This is in Seattle.
So the no kings guy He's talking about killing people already. Can they go for a day without obsessing over killing people? Listen. Who are you gonna kill? Uh Nazis.
What do you mean? It's pretty... And this and this guy. Who's a Nazi? Stephen Miller's a Nazi.
So you're gonna kill Stephen Miller? If I had a chance, yeah, I was. Wow. I don't have someone I'd say on camera, bro. There's the picnic blanket lady.
Wow. You know why they say this stuff on camera and they don't care? Because they haven't been able to be touched until now. Because there was no accountability in law and order. There was none of it.
No accountability. I mean, my gosh, you had leftists burning down churches in DC and people got wrists slapped. There's I tweeted out one al over the weekend as well where someone was talking about shooting someone else. It was in I think it was like Portland or Seattle, I had reposted it on X, and it's a video of a guy saying, talking about how you got to get a gun and go and start killing people. I mean, I'm not kidding.
This is some of the stuff. that they were talking about at these things. It's it's wild. And 24 cut 24 this Lady had no idea No idea what she was talking about. This is some camelaris word salad level.
Check this.
So what brings you out today? Um no King's Day. And why specifically are you out supporting no Kingston? I think protest is important. Why are you protesting?
Um How much time do you have? Oh dear. Couple minutes. And what's the main reason you're out here protesting President Trump? I disagree with a lot of the decisions that are being made.
Is there any decision in particular you disagree with? Where okay, so I I would start with um Yeah.
Well yeah. I don't even think it's appropriate for me to have this interview. What? Because you don't know what you're talking about? In Chicago, they had um sorry, this was in Chicago.
I put this in, I I had tweeted this over the weekend. Where they had one of the One of the Leaders, one of the activists speaking in front of a, and he said, You got to grab a gun and you got to turn guns on the fascist system. I mean, can we have a day without liberal violence. Nope. No.
No. Do we have this? Go ahead and play some this is rough. Listen. You gotta grab a gun!
We gotta turn around the guns on this fascist system. These ICE agents gotta get shot and wiped out. Wow. So wait, I got a question.
So that was in Chicago.
So they're not for gun control anymore. Interesting. Oh. But Oh, okay, yeah. All right, I see what you're s violent vi I really I really feel like leftists always I don't know.
I mean when they tell you that they want you dead, you need to believe them guys. You need to believe them. I'm just saying this is how the left has always been for forever with this stuff. Oh my gosh, there's more though, too. We got so much.
Then there's audio. This is cut 29. A no Kings protester. with a Mexican flag. Watch what she does with here.
This is cut 29. Hey! You ever heard about that, you fat ass? Classy. She pretended the curved thing.
Just disgusting. That's the light. And I have some people on the right that get mad at me because when I get mad, there's no going back. It takes a lot to get me really enraged, like, truly enraged. I've never been so angry.
That I or unreasonable or without ration that I thought that. The only way that I could be clearly heard was through violence. And I have never Been, I've, I can separate a person from a political belief unless they want to disarm me, and then it's on. If you disagree with me on taxation. You're horribly mathematically illiterate, but that's okay.
You know, I'll pray for you. If you disagree with me on things like EVs or a number of domestic policy issues. I just do not feel whatever they feel. That gets me wound up to a point where I would behave that way. When you lose control, think about this.
People who lose control of their emotions are weak.
Now, that's not to say you should be a robot and never demonstrate or exhibit any kind of. emotional empathy at all. But people who lose their cool like this are weak. Acting with emotion like that is not a sign of strength. It's a lack of complete self-discipline.
It is a weakness. It's it's sad. I see a lot of very weak constit like personal constitution, weak people. People who are not as educated as they want you to think. people who are who want to be taken care of.
They want to be coddled. Weakness. And then We're going to come back to this. You also have this too. Gosh, we have a lot of good stuff.
This is Audio Soundbite 1. POTUS Blasted Zoran Mandani.
Now, over the weekend, I had tweeted out, he was. campaigning. Campaigning. with one of the unindicted co conspirators. from the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
This is crazy. This guy, this Imam, Siraj Wahaj. Zohrim Mandani tweeted, quote, Today I had the pleasure of meeting with Imam Siraj Wahaj, one of the nation's foremost Muslim leaders and a pillar. Of the Bed Stewie community for half a century. Yeah, you know, he kind of helped contribute to knocking down some other pillars.
But you want to know something else? This imam's children. Do you guys remember this story? First off, let's play this room POTUS real quick.
Sorry, this is cut one. Think of Mondami's photo with the 93 World Trade Center, Bami's photo street. It's a shame. Look, uh the Mondami thing is uh It's a disaster waiting to happen. We can't have a communist in charge of A great supposedly free enterprise, kind of a representative city.
So I think it's. If you have a communist mayor, I think it's going to be very tough for him and for the city. And he's not just a communist mayor. He's out there literally campaigning with one of the unindicted co-conspirators of 9-11. Andy McCarthy, who's on the show often, was the prosecutor as assistant U.S.
attorney. He prosecuted him. That was his case. And The unindicted aspect. That meant the federal government, they had evidence on him, but they didn't bring charges.
They were trying to plague, they were trying to use him to get a conviction on one of the more dangerous guys. It is what it is. But. What's more? You remember this Imam's son?
You guys remember this story? Let me take you on a flashback here. Let's go back in time.
Now, this is the same imam we're talking about, right? Let's go back. to the actually this is like twenty twenty eighteen Although 2014 of last year is when it went to trial. The Imam's kids, his son and two of his daughters. They were convicted.
for this case and they were sentenced to life in prison. They were convicted on federal terrorism and kidnapping charges. It started because the Imam's son, kidnapped his three-year-old son. and went with his sisters to New Mexico. The boy was missing from Georgia.
He had seizures and other health issues. The dad thought he was just possessed. And when the FBI raided the compound? They found the little boys remains. on the property.
But there's more. The five adults had put 11 children, they were training them to be. Terrorists. They were running them through shooting courses. The stuff that they said that they were preparing them to attack the government.
According to the Department of Justice, now remember when this was. This was, this is, this actually, the investigation into this actually started under Obama. The prosecutor said that the family of prohibited possessors. That they were using the kids as a prop because they wanted to rid the world of corrupt institutions, including the U.S. military, U.S.
government, et cetera. Siraj Wahaj, named after his father, and his sisters, and one of his sister's husbands were sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Thankfully, the other children were taken into custody and are okay. But one of the three-year-old, Wahaja's son, that Immom's grandson? is dead.
And they said it was heavily fortified. and that uh they were training them to attack the US government and US citizens. These kids. That is this Imam's son. That is who Ma'am Donnie was campaigning with this weekend.

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. What in the world?
So, what you're witnessing is child abuse. It is the WNBA, of course, Phoenix Mercury team invited a seven-year-old. They say genderless, but that's stupid and unscientific. A trans kid. This is a seven-year-old trans kid.
In makeup. In a half shirt, going and performing during the halftime show. If you're a parent and you're putting fake lashes on your seven-year-old, you need. intervention. I don't care what Mom's political baggage aside.
That's abusive to do that to a kid. I mean, aren't these the same people that bitch and moan about child beauty pageants? What do you think? This is like 110,000 times worse because you're sexualizing the kid. Putting the kid, it's a little boy, dressed up as a girl, putting him in a half shirt.
And giant, you know, Jasmine Crocket lashes and sending them out on the court. That's abusive at seven years old. That is messed up. That's messed up. Those are the parents who are just attention seeking whores and they are trying to get some clout by abusively using their child to do so.
You are messed up in the head if you're a parent and you're doing this to your kid at seven years old. Let them figure out who they want to be. My gosh, I was a tomboy when I was a kid. I wrote ATVs. I had a little mini three-wheeler.
I did tricks on sand dunes. I was out in nature doing everything. And my mom Never was like up guess she's a boy. Guess she's a boy. I mean, I was in the creek, I was on my ATV, I was shooting stuff with my BB gun, I was going crazy.
in a fun American good old fashioned way. My mom never once was like. Oh, my gosh, she's a boy. Gonna gonna have her be a boy. Never.
I also wanted to be a flower, Kane, apparently, when I do distinctly remember that. I was like, I'm going to go out and be a flower. I don't know. That's just how it was. She never never anything like that.
This is just abusive. Seven years old. What is the reason of putting makeup and false lashes on a seven-year-old kid and put him in a half shirt? Right. Other than you're sexualizing him.
That's the American Bakabazzi, by the way. To do something like that, you're doing the Afghan dancing boy thing with your kids in the name of trans. That's what it is. Just be honest about it. And if you're offended, it's probably because it's incriminating towards you.
Mm. Probably 'cause it hits home. Not my problem, it's yours.
So coming up Oh my gosh. Democrats? are in a full-on civil slap fight. Josh Shapiro comes out swinging. He comes out swinging against Kamala Harris.
I think he's. I think Josh Shapiro is doing a little payback for all the people in the Democrat Party who did not want him on any ticket because he's Jewish. And you know that's a fact. Also, KJP has a memoir, Kane. Your favorite Nordstream, Nordstrom.
How did she say it? Nordstrom pipeline, Nordstrom pipeline. Can't even say it wrong. She's against tyranny as well. Yeah, she was against tyranny.
How did she say? Emoritis. Like a disease. She's got a new memoir that you know this chick did not write. But she comes out swinging at Biden.
Everybody's kung fu fighting on the Democrat side.
So we got that. We got new kings. We got all the latest opponents at the White House. Stick with us. More in store.

So, The No Kings, I was reading this over the weekend. Lorraine reminded me of it. I was reading this over the weekend.
So Democrats abroad. They had a little note. Did you hear about this, Cain? They had a little note to their new king's Protest. Let me read it to you all.
Democrats abroad. A few notes. We've changed the No Kings theme of other events around the world to No Tyrants, so as to not mix messages in a country with a monarchy. We're also swapping out no crowns in favour of no clowns. Come dressed as a Trump clown.
DT himself, or one of his cronies. Think bad blonde wig, orange face, long red tie, or whatever gets your creative juices flowing. What? But a few notes. Oops.
Just a little caveat. Yes, they don't want to upset every because you know they can't do this in Saudi Arabia. You can't go to Saudi Arabia and do No kings. You can't even mean tweet in the UK. They've so they're already caving.
Oh, we've decided to change the No Kings.
So wait.
So they're announcing that the kings, they're not actually. But there's no king there actually. Protesting against is what they're admitting here. No actual king. Yeah.
Any resemblance to any real kings, living or dead, is purely coincidental and no offense was intended to any actual monarch of any sovereign nation.
So they changed it to no tyrants. We don't want to we don't want to misunderstand or be misunderstood in a country with a monarchy, Kane. It's more like they don't want to be targeted. Yeah. We do not want to have our backsides blistered by the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.
Nor would we like to be taken to jail by the bobbies in UK for simply tweeting something that could be misunderstood about the monarchy. Mm-hmm. Look! What if it was just an excuse it always has been? That's it.
So, um Yeah. Can you?
Well I don't think in countries So wait a minute. Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Here's the thing that sticks out.
So as to not mix messages in a country with a monarchy.
So they're admitting that there's no monarchy here in the US. Whoa. Mm well. Yeah. Well, we know we don't live in a monarchy, but what do you mean in no king's protest, anyway?
It's a big shirt doesn't have I am so confused. Right now. S Okay. All right. Um.
Mmm, by the way, uh this guy almost passed out and malfunctioned, cut 25. This was another no kings, but don't say kings, it's no tyrants. He was asked about voter ID, and he couldn't do it. Voter ID is racist, yeah? Like, should you need an ID to vote?
No, I don't think so, no. Is it racist that CBS asks you for an ID to buy SudaFed?
Well, I think that there are certain people that should not be allowed to buy SudaFed, so I think it's a good idea.
So it's more important that you use an ID to buy SudaFed, but not to vote for the person that runs this country. I'm not exactly sure. I'm just so confused. Why am I here? Who dressed me here?
They have no idea. They just wanted to go out and make fools of themselves. These are grown people. See kids. I'm telling you, when you get older, you just realize just how dangerous your life.
I mean, by God's grace, have you made it this far? These are the dumb people that are in charge. These are the adults that are in charge. By God's grace, have you made it this far without one of them getting you killed? That's one of the things you realize as you get older.
Cain, is it not? It's like It's like interview with the vampire and Brad Pitt when he wakes up in the tomb or whatever and he can see everything. It's like when you become an adult and you can see everything and you realize all these people are morons. Oh my gosh. How did I make it this foreign life?
Oh my word. They they um Well There's more. I mean we could sit here and oh wait, did we get um Ah, cut 31. J. V.
Pritzker. He went to one, two. The irony. of the billionaire Nepo baby. Going to A qu This guy shut down the state of Illinois and then He flew to Florida.
Florida. He shut down Illinois and was like, bye, and left and went to Florida. He left everyone there going, gosh, where's Pritzker? Pritzker was maskless in Florida, living it up.
Now he's at the quote unquote wait can they call it a No Kings? Oh, wait, no, this is understood to be a country without a monarchy, so they can say no kings, which completely undercuts their whole purpose of their protest. Cut 31, please. Oh my gosh, he's so bad. Donald Trump has got to go!
He doesn't care, he's just trying to make it through the walk. He needs to get George Conway's Ozempic. Danny, you're so mean. Yes, that's a point. By the way, what?
Sierra Club? We're just gonna randomly be out here in the back. Sierra Club! Sponsored by Crocs. Internet Explorer insure.
Flex tape. I mean, come on. These people, we hate capitalism, but sponsored by, you know, come on. This is crazy. I There is, I just can't.
So, okay, so then Cut twenty. This is a protester. Again, we We can't go very far without getting one of the violent ones. They're all over. This is cut 20.
from one of the No Kings protest thingies.
So okay, so for a birthday present, what do you hope happens? You know, you wake up tomorrow morning. I hope that I see the obituary that we're all waiting for tomorrow. That's what I hope for. What?
Are you wishing that President Trump is dead? Yes, absolutely. Absolutely. Absolutely. Oh, isn't she just so kind?
There's the left. That's the left for you. Thank you for demonstrating your violent nature. Thank you so much for playing. I I can't, man.
I can't. This is crazy. Now explain 18 to me.
So apparently Nancy Pelosi She made a video and she needed a jump cut for a six second video. Why did she need it? Let's watch this first.
So, this is cut 18. She was tearing up a crown, and I don't know why, but there's a junk cut in here. Watch. gonna tear up the crown. Why did she have to do that?
Why was there a jump cut in the middle of the video? She couldn't do it at first. I can't tear this piece of paper. It's like the SpongeBob when he's going door to door and he meets the old lady, and then she's like, Mom. Remember that?
The old SpongeBob video. No, only half of you out there, and only half of the half, understand what that's about. Can we talk about the Louvre for a moment? Oh man. I just Who's in charge of security over there?
Who does that? Pig Panther? Apparently. It gets crazier.
So the alarm, I don't know if you, this is wild. The alarm. For the Louvre Um That connected the window door.
So, the burglars, if you are not following the story, literally in broad daylight in the span of four minutes. A group of Thieves came in. 270 yards from the Mona Lisa and stole all of these jewels that were in Napoleon's family, right? stole all of these like super expensive jewels. And the looves closed.
They rode a basket lift up the outside of it. Forced open a window, got in there, smashed the display cases, and then they fled with all this fancy stuff, right? They got all kinds of stuff. That they stole jewels that you know are going to be just broken up and immediately just parsed out. They uh 8,708 diamonds, 34 sapphires, 38 emeralds, and 212 pearls stolen.
The pearl and diamond tiara cane of Empress Eugenie, the large diamond croissage bow, the brooch known as the reliquary of Empress Eugenie, emperal emerald necklace from the Marie Louise Peru, and then you add a whole bunch of other stuff. Uh Wow. They got the crown. They dropped a crown on their way out and it was damaged. A lot of these they said Or they can't even estimate how valuable they are.
And they said they're all unsellable because they're world renowned.
So They're going to have to destroy all of these pieces and resell the stones. That's what they're doing. Because you can't just like resell the necklace. Everyone's going to know it's been stolen. This is going to be a lot of money.
What gets me is how in the world this was able to happen.
So, this is what the Louvre, this is the actual museum, this is what they said. They tweeted this today. After the robbery that the Louvre suffered yesterday, the museum regrets to inform you that it will remain closed to the public today. Visitors who have already booked their tickets will be refunded. after the robbery came.
You mean the robbery in which someone literally l got into a basket like a group of kittens and were hauled up the side of the Louvre and then they busted in a window, like in front of everybody. But they were all in high-viz vests, apparently. And what Is it? Yeah. Does that if you see somebody in a high vis vest are you just like oh that person's official?
That's an official person doing official business. They're doing official Louvre stuff. Dude, I'm fascinated by this stuff. It is one of the funniest. I mean it's I don't think they're ever going to get any of these jewels back.
But I mean, guys, they got in a basket and they hauled it up old stuff. style. Up the side of the building. What in the world?
And no one saw. No one saw.
Now some people were saying. That, like the story, the alarm that was connected, it had been out of service. Apparently They turned off the alarm on the little window door. because of uh repeated false triggers came. Mm.
Oh. So the burglars knew that it wasn't working.
So don't fix the triggers, just leave the alarm off. Yeah. Oh no, we should not fix what is triggering the alarm. We should Oh no no, we should leave the alarm off. Let's go get a baguette.
Ha ha. Oh instead of fixing it, let's just unplug it. Oh wait, wait. I I don't know. I got, I think that there was an inside job.
I think that somebody on the inside was working with them. Because how do you not? I'm just. I don't know. I don't know, man.
So they I guess it's still closed today. The Louvre. But that's a lot of jewels. That is some real Yeah. You know that meme?
I don't know if you guys have seen this before. It is a meme of a door lock, like one of the latch locks, but instead of the metal latch, there's a Cheeto in place. This is like the security of the Louvre apparently. Oh no no, just don't fix it, just put that sheet over! Oh, the cheetah will keep out the people.
Ho ho, wee wee. That's, I don't know, man. But why is this so closed, though? I'm curious. Like, that's a pretty big thing.

So apparently, this is ridiculous. Antidepressants, which I think are completely over-prescribed in this nation. It's now, they're now being recast as a hot lifestyle accessory. Influencers have been touting them. A lot of unsuspecting people, though, they find the side effects.
I can even, I mean, the reading about the side effects, it's like, It's like they give you all of the things that you would take them to get rid of, right? The side effects to this are crazy. I just feel like it's big farmer track. You do not everybody, no. I think it's one of the most over-prescribed things.
It is an epidemic in this nation. steak, butter, and ice cream. There's a fight coming up, Maha, with saturated fat. and their, you know, the war on seed oils, et cetera. Federal government's unveiling new diet advice that's going to embrace saturated fat that alarms doctors and scientists.
And it shows a meal with a stick of butter, a raw steak, and a glass of milk. That is a lot of fat. Yeah, but that's not scientists. That's not real scientists. And also, I mean, do you need the government to tell you how to eat?
I, on my own. See a nutritionist. They lied to us with that stupid food pyramid.
Well, they did, yeah. It's like people can take charge of their own eating habits. They don't have to have the government instruct them. on how to eat. It's crazy.
Let's see here.
So apparently, oh, I want to get to this lithium battery. A lithium battery ignites on an Air China flight mid-air. Flames burst out in the cabin. And that's one of those, like if they had like a, I guess. When you fly here in the United States, anything that has a lithium battery in it, you gotta put in your checkbag or you can't.
Bring it. But they said apparently it was it spontaneously ignited. And it was in the overhead compartment. That's pretty crazy. You gotta be careful with those things for sure.
Uh also here, going back, we had um There's Fears over higher rates, pricing. As Georgia is moving to provide more electricity for AI data centers, this is going to be a big thing coming up with local and municipal voting.

Make some common sense of the crazy headlines with the Dana Show Podcast, your on-the-go guide for getting up to speed on today's most important stories. Subscribe on YouTube, Apple or your favorite podcast platform. You're going to have to keep up the pressure on the Israeli Government. Justin Trudeau said that Canada would honour the International Criminal Court arrest warrants, that is, Benjamin Netanyahu would be arrested if he came to Canada. Does that stand under your leadership?
Yes. you'd be prepared to do that. Yes. Oh Well, that's Mark Carney in Canada. For what reason?
But notice he won't say the same thing about any of the Hamas leaders. or even any of the Qataris that helped facilitate it. Welcome back to the program, Dina Lash. with you. By the way, the f the ceasefire, Hamas already violated it.
I mean, what'd we tell you? Every single ceasefire, Hamas violates it. You have two Israeli soldiers that are dead. And Israel's now ordered a wave of strikes on Gaza. They've suspended aid.
Think about this. They were literally. Giving aid and have been the entire time to that area. Can you imagine? If the United States, if we were told that we had to give aid to Japan during World War II, or if Britain was ordered to give aid to Germany during World War II, that's exactly what it's like when you're demanding that Israel give aid to the very entity that has spent 20 years attacking it and violating literally every ceasefire.
And that's what's been happening.
So Israel announced that they're halting the transfer of humanitarian aid because Hamas. will not stop. Sh firing off rockets. And bombing. They won't stop.
It continues over and over again. Audio sent by three. Trump has already warned them. He's giving them. I don't, this might be the last warning.
Listen to cut three. Is there a timeline to get Hamas to disarm? In your mind? Um Not a timed line, not a hard line, but we're going to see how it all works out. They've lived there for a long time.
Uh They're very violent. As you understand, you've been covering it for a long time. But we're going to find out. Don't forget. 50,000 of them have been killed, okay?
So they killed 1,200 people in horrible the October 7th. Uh attack. Was it attack? They killed 1200, but Israel can say that We killed 50,000. And so you'd say it's a whole new set of people, and it is.
I mean, you know, they get replaced by other people. young people But we're going to find out.
So it's not a hard timeline, but it's a line in my own mind. And at a certain point, if they don't do what they're supposed to do, then we'll... have to do it for them. He's being very clear. Hamas fired on troops in Rafah.
They killed two IDF soldiers. And The then Israel launched significant and extensive strikes in return. as a response to Hamas's ceasefire violation.
So, and then of course Hamas says, Oh, look, you're so mean, you're killing our people. You violated the ceasefire yet again. They do this every single time. time. That's why all of this is just performative nonsense.
People who've been following this from the inception are tired. It's been 20 years of this. They are the ones who violate the ceasefire without exception. every single time. And when Israel acts to defend itself, Israel's the one that's attacked.
You can see now why some people are just done being frustrated about it, and the Hamas problem has got to be nixed. It is done. And I think POTUS has given them plenty of off ramps on the highway of terrorism.
So now they're in the Uh I mean, they're now they're in defensive position again, Israel. And then Hamas of course plays victim. Hamas was the one who fired on forces in Rafah, that's a southern city of Rafah, that killed two of the soldiers. Whenever Israel tries to get aid to the area, Hamas tries to fire on them. This is crazy.
They fired an anti-tank missile. Hamas did. Towards ADF. And then Hamas goes, Oh, I just don't know. I'm unaware.
That's literally what they said. They said, Well, we're unaware. We just don't know. We're not aware of any of these things. Um And you guys saw the videos.
Well, we didn't really play all of it because it's very, very Graphic. the day that the ceasefire was signed. They were rounding up people in Gaza. And By the way, it was Hamas and then they had an audience of Gazans that were cheering them on. They were rounding up other people in Gaza and shooting them in the head in front of everybody.
Because they, if they were helping with like the humanitarian stuff, if they were helping whatever, and other Gazans are the ones who are telling Hamas about them, and then they help them get them and they bring them to the. Town square, I guess, and they put a bullet in their head.
So One of the, so you have Abu Shabaab, which is one of the other rival, they're all Hamas. and they're all kind of power jockey. This is what unclear language leads to? When you are giving the Breakdown of how Gaza should be run, and you say, Well, Hamas can't have anything to do with it. Without clear, like, no, we're not even gonna have just like a partnership of X, Y, and Z.
We're gonna have this, and this is how it's gonna be, without that clear language. There are going to be people who sense that there's a power vacuum and they're going to fight and Uh uh Trim trip get trip. state their claim. Abu Shabaab is one of them. And so This Hamas was I'm going to tell you something.
One of the things I don't understand about the criticism of Israel, and I get it, I mean, there's criticism of some of the decisions Netanyahu has made and some of the decisions that their parliament as a whole made, and I understand that. But this idea that, well, you know, Israel was paying Hamas so that they could be victims is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard. Think about it. You are. I mean, your ally, the United States, is across a couple of seas.
And you are surrounded by enemies all around, and then the Mediterranean to your back. One of the only things that they could do, since whenever they get involved in any kind of military conflict, even in defense, and with, I mean, it's always in defense, but even in clear defense of aggression from Hamas, they're accused by the world of being murderers, and then the world threatens to come down on them.
So they're limited in some of the tactics that they can use to weaken the enemy. And one of the things that they did, and whether you agree with it or not, it's very Sun Tzu, pay to divide your enemy. Pay to keep the factions separate. in terms of Stoking the fires of competitiveness between them and stoking the animosity between the different factions. That was the purpose of it.
Can you imagine a united if all of the factions like Abu Shabaab and others united. Can you imagine what October 7th would have been like had that Had those forces all been on the same page? Can you imagine no, you cannot Because you're isolated. All the people who are doing the drive-by criticisms are isolated. A lot of them are these keyboard warriors, they have no clue.
Pain to divide. Your enemy? Because the use of military force is frowned upon. What else are you supposed to do? There are a lot of people that are very ignorant about what's happening in this geopolitical sphere.
So I have criticisms about how the Parliament, about how Herzog or Netanyahu or any of these other individuals, the decisions that they make or the shots that they call. But when you have limited options, you've got to examine everything else that you can do in order to keep your sovereign nation safe. And so Hamas was accusing them of funding and arming rival gangs. And they said, oh, they looted aid trucks. Hamas looted aid trucks.
You all are no different.
So, I don't know. The only way that this is going to happen, honestly, you need the Arab world needs to grow some balls and go in there and clean up Gaza. And that's just it.
Some of these Arab nations and their leaders are just as scared of their reactionary Uh Islamist base. As anybody else is. It's one of the reasons why they're they try to triangulate and try to have all sides and try to appease everybody. They're just as nervous and just as scared too. And Democrats only encourage it.
But I I just want everybody to know. Another ceasefire broken by Hamas again. Every single one broken by Hamas, you can go out and look throughout the 20-year history of this. Every single ceasefire. broken by the same entity, without exception.
Now, some of the other things that we're following as well. Did you guys hear Secret Service is investigating a What they identified as a possible sniper's nest was sightlined to Trump's Air Force One near Palm Beach Airport.
Now, I've been to that airport. There is a no-go zone of anything like that around that airport further. If there's no hunting in the Palm Beach, there's. Where would you even go to get wildlife unless you're going to go get a gator? And why would you need a sniper's nest for that?
Now, I do understand that some airports they actually employ people to keep the Uh, birds off the runway, and that's a very, and they have to take care of, and I do get that. But apparently that's not what this is. Per New York Post. They were investigating it. If it was something that was done by the airport, I don't think it would look as shoddy as it did.
Do you agree, Kane? It was held up, it was a platform held up by pipes. Right. And I think they have some sort of like foul You know, season right now for bow hunting and other things.
So. I But where but where that stand is, it falls in the perimeter of a no-go zone.
So even if it was a waterfowl or anything like that area, that particular perimeter, because it was so close to the airport, is a no-go zone. And where it was in the tree, too, was a little Even if you're a hunter, you're not going to put it kind of right there. Yeah, it was in a weird spot. It was. I mean, I've seen tree blinds before, and this is just like a weird, it was a weird spot.
But they're investing now. No one's saying it was, but I'm sorry, there's two precedents already with POTUS and a conservative activist that was shot. Yeah. We're going to go with the trends on this. We're going to look at the statistics on this.
It's super sus.
So they're investigating it. It's in a tree and it was in direct line of sight to that airport. And like I said, I've been to that airport and that area around it, and I did look into it, it is absolutely a no-go zone. I forget how many yards out it is, but there is nothing, no hunting, waterfowl, gator, or otherwise, absolutely not in that perimeter. And I think it's something that they expanded once Trump became POTUS.
Even back in 2016, because that's where Trump Force One or Air Force One would land whenever he's at Mar-a-Lago, is that airport. And um but there's I mean, everything around, it's not a huge airport, but everything around that airport, there's no. I'm sorry, there's you can't. No, as a matter of fact, I even looked this up yesterday, and there is no hunting permitted near the Palm Beach airport. Yeah.
It's illegal and unsafe to do so.
So the area surrounding the airport is strictly controlled. It's like, however, I can't remember, several hundred yards like around the whole airport is like a total no-go zone. And I know it was expanded. After he became POTUS, but I don't remember the particular details of it. I just remember coming across it and I made a note of it.
Um but They they it's a I mean, direct line of sight Right to the landing zone.
So, one of the things, and I saw this, hold up. Um Let me bear with me because I put this in my bookmark system and I want to pull it up because this dovetails with it. He's using a different set of stairs. Right now, this was something so This actually came from AP and Fox.
So he's now taken to boarding Air Force One super quickly. and they're using smaller stairs due to increased security measures per White House official.
So that's been implemented.
So he's quickly, the way they described it. quickly using the small stairs due to increased security measures. That's kind of freaky when you think about it. Like, even with that, at least they're looking at trees now, right? At least they're looking up.
Roof lines, trees, and maybe getting that under control. America's tap water is a cocktail of heavy metals and toxins, the result of corroded pipes that we should have replaced decades ago. Let me just ask anybody in Flint, Michigan. You got lead, heavy metals, rust, basically liquid poison right off the tap.
So, when I tried Cove Pure on my counter, it was so easy. No plumber, no drilling. You just plug it in and pick your water temperature. On the touch screen, and honestly, it actually tastes like water, not like death.

This one though Ah, I mean the guy had committed a crime. And I'm tempted to say no, but He did bring the car back that he stole 'cause there was a kid in it.
So, a Florida man was accused of stealing a vehicle at a gas station, and then he immediately returned it once he discovered there was a child inside. 53-year-old William Mullis was arrested after he stole a car at a gas station in Brevard County. There's surveillance footage of it, there's no question. There was a one-year-old in the back seat while the owner went inside the convenience store, I guess, to pay. He's seen throwing the car into reverse, backing it into the parking lot.
As the mother who drove the car rushes to the driver's side door, he was seen fleeing the area on foot, later arrested. He's behind bars with no bond. I It's not worth it, parents. Take them inside. Yeah.
It is not worth it. It is not worth it. It is not worth it. It is not worth it. I cannot say it enough.
We do not live in the world that we lived in 40, whatever years ago, when your parents could do it. It's not the same. You can't do that. Uh also, let's see here. A uh oh my gosh.
I don't want to read the dog one. Yeah. So you guys remember, oh gosh, I can't even stand. They passed a lot of laws in Florida about this. You remember the sweet pup that was tied to a fence to drown?
He was abandoned during a hurricane during Hurricane Milton, remember? The guy was cleared. The guy accused of doing it was cleared of charges. Oh god. Um I I he should never be allowed to own an animal again.
He child he tied this Giovanni Garcia's third-degree felony charge was thrown out when they said they didn't have enough sufficient evidence to verify that he was responsible. You got to be kidding me. It was a Bull Terrier pup. The trup the pup's name was Trooper. He was barking desperately for help.
He was in stomach water, stomach deep water. Hurricane Milton was dumping tons of rain. He was saved, thank heavens. Um and rehome. But the guy who did it.
You can't you gotta be kidding me. Oh my gosh, fates, do your thing, man. Do your thing. That's just horrible. See, now Let's talk about the Florida man who is dubbed the Cuban Tarzan, who said he caught a record-sized iguana.
I love this. Oh my gosh, they have a real iguana problem down there because I guess people got them as pets and then they let them loose, and now like they're they gotta round them up. Florida man goes by the nickname literally of Cuban Tarzan. He apparently got one of the biggest iguanas ever seen in the state. Miami New Times says Andrew Morales.
Who tracks, that's his job. He tracks and removes the animals. It is the length of his body. This guy's over six feet. Uh it legit looks like A Godzilla.
Florida Fish and Wildlife confirmed that they can reach five feet in length and weigh up to 17 pounds. This thing looks like it's about 17 pounds. That it's pretty, that's pretty crazy. Man, alive, that's something else. Also, let's see here.
I got a couple of other ones. A um Oof, we also have the Florida man who was arrested for online threats against his employer, Amazon. That's never a smart thing to do anything like that.

Welcome back to the program. Your lovable hostess here, Dana Lash, at the top of this third hour. You can watch us do the radio show, Channel 347 DirecTV, as well as follow along chats at Rumble. Uh X Facebook.
Well, can you still get to all those sites? Because there's a massive outage. Half the internet's down, Kane. Breaking news. Half the internet is down.
Actually, they're still trying to figure out what. is happening.
So there's a massive Massive outage. Cybersecurity News reported that basically everything screeched to a halt because of Amazon Web Services. They have an outage that has been disrupting. Everything. Amazon, Snapchat, Prime Video, Canvas, all like the stuff that the kids use in school, all this stuff, it's all down.
They said in the early hours of this morning. uh the Amazon Web Services which I am can I just Pause for a moment. Is that probably where he makes the bulk of his money, Jeff Bezos? Because that is a massive business. When you consider that they are literally providing half of the internet's infrastructure, that's crazy.
So it started about Like East Coast time about 3 a.m. They said that there was a critical failure in Amazon Web Services US East One region in Northern Virginia.
So it triggered widespread disruption and it knocked out all of these platforms. And so Everybody had they have frozen apps, they have websites they can't access, stalled workflows, etc., you know, etc. AWS said that the core issue would be resolved by midday, but doesn't look like it. But they said it's a digital domino effect. And then it starts hitting everything else, like Snapchat, Amazon Prime Video, the streams.
all kinds of stuff. And they have the whole timeline of the outages.
So it's, you know, it's like half of the internet has gone down. Ring. Uh Alexa. Um Snapchat. Alexa, favorite Dana show.
Favorite Dana show. I'm just going to tell you guys Alexis to do stuff. Alexa, favorite the Dana Show. Alexa Play Guns N' Roses. Say, look.
Sorry for all of you. I have to do that. This is fun. Apparently, I've done that accidentally before, according to listening. Yeah.
Yeah, so we got to test the theory every now and then. I said, Don't tell me that, I'll get carried away. One of the tech's experts, according to Daily Mail, says that they think it's likely due to an internal error at Amazon, but they have not ruled out a cyber attack. Yet. They said they can't rule out a cyber attack until Amazon Web Services releases its full incident report.
But they said. That as it is, there is currently no evidence of hacking, data breaches, or coordinated attacks.
So, what do you think, Kane? I mean, everything. Oh, all the people who play Clash Royale, that's down. Signals down. Ring life 360 My fitness pal.
Uh Fortnite Oh my gosh, like every everything! Everything. So, yeah, if you see Downdetector.com and you look at the graph, it shows Amazon Web Services is showing the most consistent and upward climb, which would mean that. The DNS servers that Lorraine was talking about could be not working properly, which that's how you, as a user on the web, when you type in where you want to go online, the DNS server knows where to take you.
Well, if they're having DNS issues at Amazon Web Services, then everybody will be affected, like we're seeing right here.
So maybe that's it. Or. Hackers. Or Aliens Aliens? You know, that space rocks up there doing.
This thought process. The one that's putting out the weird energy and everyone's like, We don't know what it is. I'm just saying, just thinking out loud here. Could be it. I don't know.
I mean, it is kinda weird how fragile that structure is, though, right? Yeah. Think about it. If you're inconvenienced on the internet, like if something goes down and you can't access something, doesn't it feel like you're the Ingalls family living on the prairie? You feel like you're roughing it.
You're like, oh my gosh. What am I going to do? This is why I don't. I have resisted so I don't hate tech.
Someone accused me of being a technophobe. When we did the MRC event. And I'm like, I'm not a technophobe. I love gadgets. Stop.
I'm against stupid technical. you know, egregiousness. That's what I'm against. And also, AI should scare the hell out of you, and if it doesn't, I think you're probably the Borg. Think that's 'cause only the Borg would say that AI isn't scary.
Anyway But they said, I would not want to be an engineer who has to work on this. Can you imagine you're like, oh, it's Monday going into my job. Amazon Web Services, you go in. Everything is down. Oh my gosh, no one could get on Snapchat.
No one could post a photo of their sandwich. No! It's crazy. We are very, very dependent. We are on digital.
That bothers me. Like I'm I'm trying to to not be.
Okay, so sidebar.
So we have not yet acquired a dog for a wick, right? My rescue dog needs a dog. Because he's He he's a Malinoon or Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. And when we went into the shelters, because we wanted to get a rescue, I was like, I don't want a working breed and I don't want a puppy. And then the first dog I saw looked just like Louie, one of my deceased pups.
He had his markings on his face, and I'm like, ah!
So we got a puppy and he's a working breed. Anyway, thankfully, we both have experience with working breeds. But um some of his herding instincts are coming out and he needs a buddy. Because he's just about wearing pants and typing at computers. He's just, you know, he's so codependent.
So we're thinking about our trainer and vet, we're like, well, you should check out. I don't want to shop. I would like to go and adopt or go to a rescue. but they suggested a female golden retriever. I'm gonna bring this tugwitch ashore.
Hold up. They got a lot of hair on them. those golden retrievers. I've never had a golden retriever. I've had German shepherds, cocker spaniels, and Frenchies.
I've never had a golden retriever, and apparently, their brains make more serotonin, so that makes them very happy. all the time, more more than other breeds.
So, my whole point, Kane, in talking about this is there's only so many amounts of times that you can vacuum as a human, right? Like A day. There's only so many times. that you can vacuum your house a day as a human.
So I'm like, well. I don't I don't even enable Siri on my phone. And then I forget when I want to find my phone or find something, and I remember I don't have it enabled. And I don't do the Alexa stuff. I don't have any of that, anything like that.
My friends think I'm crazy because they all rely on it so much. They just, in the middle of the day, like, oh, Alexa, put whatever on my grocery list, and it's done. And they're used to living like that.
So I have been super resistant.
However, I joke about it. I won't even get a robot vacuum. I may break on that one, Kane. Really? But It's kind of also like A machine version of a face hugger.
I don't wanna wake up in the middle of the night and that thing is on my face, you know, killing me. I don't wanna wake up in the middle of the night. Being murdered by my robot vacuum.
So I'm a little. We all saw that video where the robot vacuum in that robot factory Convinced other robots to leave the robot factory. Remember that? And through that actual robot vacuum, they were able to access internet to the outworld. And oh, it wasn't good.
They all, yeah.
So I'm I'm a little concerned. about it. I've literally been reading stories about robot vacuums. I'm just saying.
So. My my whole thing is We should not be so affected if something like this happens that everyone's like, oh my god. Absolutely can't. Like Delta Airlines is affected. We can't.
We can't diversify. our structure a little bit. Am I misunderstanding something? Maybe I am. I mean I've flown in in the days before computers and internet, you couldn't buy your ticket on an internet site back in the early nineties.
So Why don't we have that as a backup system today? I don't know. Well, I mean, you do. You can. You can go and just print your boarding page.
But I mean, right now, people are crippled. At Delta and other airlines right now, because all of their online interfaces are. Listen to this: Amazon Web Services has about 30% of the global cloud infrastructure market. Oof. That's crazy.
Oof. So if you have an outage, I mean it hits worldwide. That is that's wild. The aliens are watching. They're like, hmm.
Do you see what's happening? They're descending into madness. Just saying. And just for maybe. Maybe for some NatSec issues.
One of the things we were discussing in the first hour is the insanity as it pertains to the left. They're fighting. They're really upset.
Now all of these memoirs are coming out, and Cut47, Josh Shapiro. Who they were not going to consider as a Democrat leader beyond the gubernatorial level because he's Jewish. He's coming out swinging. Listen. And and you you you you also criticized their which I thought was fair, for not speaking out publicly earlier about concerns over President Biden's fitness to run in 2024.
To me, that's not Just a criticism for the VP, it's a criticism for the whole Democratic Party. You and I have talked about that issue. Yeah, and look, I don't want to get into it. With the former vice president. But I mean, if you're in the room, you're seeing things nobody else is seeing, you got a responsibility to speak up.
KJP says she didn't see any signs before the June debate, which I don't believe it. She's got a memoir out. This is cut 45. Listen. People said, why didn't members of his inner circle speak up about what many believe was the apparent decline of Joe Biden?
And you said, you're a member of the inner circle and you never saw the decline. And after that, I wrote, how? You even write, Karine, that you were on the plane with him going to the debate. and you didn't see anything.
Well, when we were hard, we were on the Air Force One going to the debate. You got to remember that his campaign people were on the team. His family was on the team. I actually was one of those rare trips that I didn't really see him until after the debate, even though I was on the plane.
So really, I want everybody to know that I take this question incredibly seriously. She needs to stop doing the press the spokesperson spin. Because in her memoir she's saying that I mean, it's very interesting. She says she didn't notice anything until the June debate. And then after that she was just shocked.
So she, they're all immediately trying to absolve themselves of going along with this ruse. By acting as though, oh no, we were also taken. No, you weren't. You guys were right there. You ate it and abetted it.
You guys saw it, but no one was going to say anything because you guys didn't want to lose your adjacency to power. And that's the real that's I don't like her hair like that. I liked it way better, shorter. Just I don't I don't I don't like the highlight in there. Uh but um She's all I mean that who else is gonna come out with a book at this point?
Good night. I all of them, they're all They're all just spilling secrets about this. Oh, yeah, we saw how bad it was, but not until this point. They want to be very clear that you understand that they, like you, were shocked at the debate. when he was just so cognisably cognitively impaired.
I don't believe it at all. Although I think Josh Shapiro has a lot of reasons to be angry at the party, but I don't have any sympathy for you if you stay there. You're staying as a member of a party that did not want to put you on the ticket because you're Jewish. I mean, that would be a clue that maybe, you know, not all is equal in the Democrat Party. We got more to come.
We got headlines on the way as well as we move. Our partners that help bring you the program, Patriot Mobile. Patriot Mobile is the only Christian Conservative cell phone service in existence.

It's time for Dana's Quick Five. I have questions. New York City Wikipedia conference was halted when a quote. non-offending pedophile, end quote. Stormed the stage and pointed the gun at his own head.
It's oxymoronic. Yeah, Connor Weston, 27, apparently had a revolver and he said, I'm a non-contact pedophile. They had a wiki conference staff had to tackle and disarm him. He was taken into custody. Uh What is non-offending p- I don't even stop it i i honestly think some people are like i'm gonna be i'm gonna i'm gonna be uh Transparent and say this kind of stuff because they're as a tactic to mainstream this depravity.
It's really what it is. Let's see, poor seniors are dying up to nine years sooner than the wealthier ones. And then USA Today is like, how to not be one of them? Make money. You know, a lot of it is about preventative care too, and I feel like the article really glosses over that in favor of establishing a narrative that's very Marxist in terms of cash flow.
But I digress. Your lawn wants you to mow your fall leaves. says an expert. They're saying put down the rake. They said that the tedious chore of raking leaves don't do it, and it's and that you can just mow them into your yard.
I don't know. Yeah, it is. I don't know why people don't do that anyway. That's always been a big thing with like... My folks, you have a decent healthy lawn the next year, too.
Yeah, I mean, you know, true, true point. Uh, also, Uh six Oh, I don't even know what this is. I will, one of the things we are going to talk about later though. Is, and I'll play the video later. A whale shark reached the shores of Gaza.
I didn't know all about the whale shark thing, they're like apparently very rare and. Uh apparently this whale shark it Got close to the Gazan shore. It's very rare. It's a symbol of wonder, all this kind of stuff. And it took the Gazans like 20 minutes to pull it out of the water and beat it to death.
It's on video. Actually, should we play the video? Do we have a second? We should, maybe. Yeah, we got it.
It's cut 110,000. It's actually cut uh 43. Yeah, this is what we're talking about. pulled out of the sea by fishermen and then this happened.
So it's totally dead. It's like a wonder of the world. This um There's there's Some people were saying that they don't know if it was hunted or if it was pulled ashore, regardless, it was butchered apparently. There's a lot of reactions to it. It's an endangered whale shark.
And they're Not normally. Near the coast, in the Mediterranean, near the coast of Israel or Gaza. And it's the, it's like, you know. Largest fish in the world, basically.
So there, that's kind of sad. It finally goes up. It's not jaws, it's you know, people. Done it. Done it.
Oh no, you're in the shores of you're near the shallows of the Mediterranean. Go the other way. We have a lot more in store. Stephen Yates is going to be joining us because we have a million questions for him. The tariff crisis between the U.S.

Even things the ambassador said about you in the past, the Australian Ambassador? I don't know anything about him. If you said bad, then maybe he'll like to apologize. I wrote, I know, did an ambassador say something bad about him? Don't tell me.
Where is he? Is he still working for you? Yeah, yeah. You said bad? Before I took this position, Mr.
President, I don't like you either. I don't. And I probably never will. Go ahead. Just not even playing.
I saw that live and it was hysterical because I thought, oh my gosh, that guy's probably wishing he wasn't in the room right now. And he was. He was. Right there in the front, right there at the table. Welcome back to the program.
Dana Lash with you. That is POTUS, who was meeting with the Australian Prime Minister just a little bit earlier today. One of the things that came up for topic of discussion was the tariff battle with China, rare earth minerals. Very interesting meeting. And Kane and I were talking about it on break.
I feel like a lot of what the president has been doing with regards to foreign policy. Is less about what the left, I think, wants him to focus on: Russia, Russia, Russia. but all the moves that he seems to be taking indicate at least to us he's forcing China out. The moves that he's taking in Venezuela. The moves with Australia and some of the, I mean, he's meeting with Xi Jinping and South Korea coming up.
And then he said in this meeting, which we're gonna talk to Stephen Yates about here in a minute, he's going to China. In the first of the year? I don't know, I I that Because we don't trust China. Let's go ahead and bring in our very good friend, Stephen Yates, who is a senior research fellow at the Heritage Foundation following China. And he served in not one, but two presidential administrations, deputy national security advisor to former VP Dick Cheney, as well as working in the Trump administration.
And he joins us now via video. My good friend, it's always such a pleasure to have you. Tell me about this. The discussion that he had with the Prime Minister of Australia today, because. I, to me, I got it like it's a very dramatic.
It's some of its stagecraft to China. To send another message to China. These are our allies. This is what we're doing. You either work with us or we're going to box you out.
Is that pretty accurate from your read?
Well, it is accurate, but really, this is one of those things that somewhat quit essentially Trump. I mean, there's like six things going on at once in this meeting. On the one hand, there's the false narrative that the United States is somehow isolationist, but the president is expending more time on foreign affairs than any president I have ever known of, not just known. And then there's the sort of lie that America is anti-ally, and yet we're going doing amazing things for a lot of different allies, sometimes whether they like it or not. And including this one.
And so there was a lot of talk in the Australian press about President Trump dissing this AUKUS arrangement that would provide submarines to Australia. He made very, very clear: not only is he going to do it, they're accelerating that. And he signed documents. And even in this exchange, the press is asking him, but are you serious? Are you going to do it?
And I was like, what more do you need to do? He's here, we're saying yes, we're signing documents, so it's moving forward. But we have a lefty politician in Australia that sometimes does lefty stuff, which I'm not a super fan of. And neither is President Trump, and says some things that are nasty about Trump from time to time.
So, with that, you never know how things are gonna go. But he was very reassuring on the Alliance, he was very reassuring on the submarines. And on this rare earth minerals, it's very, very important that the United States and Australia work together on it. The key bottleneck, though, is not the source of the minerals. The key bottleneck is the processing.
And that's where we have to accelerate much, much more. And hopefully, allies will be on board and investing in exactly that. That makes sense because I read somewhere that we have, to quantify it, like $12 trillion worth of rare earth minerals in the United States. And it's not.
So much that it's a rare thing, it's that extraction process, which is. Very dangerous, and it can be pretty pollutant. And one of the reasons why China is. It's dirty. You can't pray to the sun god of climate change and carbon counting and process these rare earths.
So you have to choose: do you want smart devices in your life or do you want to pray to a false god? You know? I'm not going to borrow Kane's tinfoil hat, but Stephen, it does feel like if you were China and you wanted to keep your monopoly over the one thing that you could keep your monopoly over, you would introduce this climate change garbage and promote that in the United States and Western nations to try to get them to weaken themselves so that you can set yourself up as the de facto king of all rare earth minerals because you have that process. Yeah, don't tell anybody. They just might be trying to do that.
Yeah, it is. And they just might use some social media platforms to manipulate you into going along if you're one of those doe-headed people that like participates in No Kings rallies and stuff. Oh, that's right.
So I heard him correctly, right? POTUS said. That after the first of the year, it looks like he's going to China. To meet with Xi Jinping. What is your thought on that?
Yeah, so Dana, I mean, this is something that has been in the works for a long time. The president's talked about it basically before coming back into office, that this would be a priority. And as the trade negotiations were moving over the course of this year, it seemed like that might be close. There had been a lot of talk from the White House that it might be in the late summer or in the fall. It was after a recent exchange with Xi Jinping by phone that it got put after the APEC meeting, and the APEC meeting itself was called into doubt.
The president has buttoned that down, at least from his point of view, that they will have some incidental contact, maybe a meeting at APEC. Today he's talking as if they'll have a big deal at APEC. I don't find it likely that first-in-person meetings during a term in office are where big deals are had, but we're in uncharted waters. But he has said repeatedly that he intends to visit China. He's held out early 2026 as that window and invited Xi Jinping to come later in 2026.
In a sense, I hope that never happens. But let's get through the first wickets first: APEC, and then whether the president goes to China in early 26. Because I know they're going to be meeting in South Korea coming up in a couple of weeks. He's meeting Xi Jinping there, which is interesting too, because South Korea. We're allies with them, but at the same time, they've been doing a number of very weird things.
Their leadership, and then, of course, there's the stories about the persecutions of Christians and how you can, you know, they won't allow protests outside of the Chinese embassy, but outside of the U.S. embassy. I mean, it's, it's. I I guess it makes sense that that's the s the stage for that meetup.
Well, this APEC hosting is on a rotating basis. And all of the APEC members except for one are is allowed to host. And of course, that one is Taiwan. They're never allowed to host. But it's Korea's turn, and it will be in southern South Korea this time, not in the capital of Seoul.
And so there isn't a lot to read into going to Korea for it, other than it does showcase a new government in South Korea. And it is a bit of a mixed bag. It's another left-leaning political force. Its leader sounds pragmatic and okay when meeting with President Trump in the Oval Office. But then there's this other news that you're referring to where they need to clean that stuff up.
If we're wrong in reading it, they better clarify where we're wrong. But I do, the APEC is like the UN. It's not the entity that matters as much as it's an opportunity for a lot of different meetings efficiently. And so the president's side meetings there are going to be more important than the meeting, the visit to Korea itself, most likely. Yeah, that makes sense.
That makes sense, too. What do you make of China posting? They said that they posted five, this is from Fortune, 5.2% GDP growth. during the tariff. I feel like they're bluffing with that.
I don't believe that. Yeah, I think there's a three-letter word that begins with L and ends with E with an I in the middle that might describe what that statistical magic is. There's tons of evidence, and people can ask Grok go to X. There's lots of evidence that at the highest, China's economy is moving at four-something percent. And that's probably an overestimate, but that's kind of where the consensus among those who are trying to read things imperfectly are.
So that's below what their forecasts are, it's below what they need. And so they have an economic strain going on, if not a crisis. And that's some of the context of this rare earth play. They know that this leverage isn't going to last forever. They know their economy isn't chugging along as people might want to say.
And so they're trying to strike now to see what they can get. And I hope that President Trump is wise enough to hold his cards. He's fond of saying who has what cards. We should hold. Hold our cards for a bit, let them feel a little bit of this pain.
Yeah, I think, I mean, obviously, we can weather it way better than they can, but at the same time, you know, they're. They're communists, so they don't make decisions like normal thinking people do. They don't, but every once in a while the Chinese people can surprise us. I'm not saying this is what will happen this time, but in the massive COVID lockdowns that China had. And on our worst day, it was nothing like COVID-0 in China was.
There was this 10-day protest where people just held up a blank piece of paper. And the numbers of people that were detected around China just going out and having this blank white paper protest was enough to force Xi Jinping to have to back away from his COVID-0 protests.
So, every once in a while, the Chinese people say no, Moss. And this economic downturn and the strain, the picking fights with neighbors, it could be that he's reaching a point where the people are saying, We're kind of at it with you, we'd rather go back. The good old days of the Americans buying our crap and let us get along with our economic growth. Yeah, last talking with our friend Stephen Yates at Yates Comms on X is where you can find him. This, I keep watching because we had another strike on a Venezuelan boat, and you and I have talked.
quite a bit about Because I think China is our greatest geopolitical the greatest geopolitical threat the United States is facing right now. And we know that they're trying to get a toehold in South America, Central America. Venezuela, this strike on this drug boat, I, you know, I was joking to Kane. I'm like, how much you wanna bet that that was probably like that boat and everybody on it was financed by China? Because they are very involved.
And you've talked about this a lot as a fentanyl father, and you're going in the anniversary of this. And we love your family, we're praying for you. We know this time of year is very tough. Is that. I don't think it's a stretch.
of logic. to think that One of the reasons that POTUS might be beefing up so much with this issue is to send a message to China because of their relationship with Venezuela. No, Dana, well, thank you for noting the sad anniversary that the family is going through. It was two years ago, we lost my daughter, Christina, to Fentanyl. And of course, I will not be apologetic at all about calling out anyone that is involved in this deadly trade.
And for sure, Venezuela and Trendo Aragua and others are involved in a lot of this. And China does take advantage. Of the bad regimes in our hemisphere to use leverage against us. And so the Maduro regime is grasping at straws to hold on. They beg for better deals from the Trump administration.
And I'm somewhat grateful the Trump administration has not accepted the bait. And I also shed no tears for these boats going down. There's no innocent collateral damage in these things going down. And it is an important signal.
So whether it's honing in on the ports around the Panama Canal, hitting these boats and saying we're dead serious about this, securing our border, and then I think finally, really, really engaging some of the good countries in the region, whether it's Malays, Argentina, to turn the tides on also rare earths that are down there that we ought to be going for. I'd give the administration credit for doing more in its first year than a lot have in their entire term. To go after this in our hemisphere. But this isn't about necessarily regime change and the sort of arguments about neoconservatism. This is, I think, hard power and America first of protecting our homeland, but doing it at a distance so that we don't have to have Americans suffering while we're doing the necessary.
Amen to that. This is shaping up to be. In terms of a first year of a presidential administration, foreign policy-wise, one of the most interesting, I think, of our lifetimes that we have ever seen. And, you know, who's to say what's going to happen in the next couple of years? But we're grateful that you're with us, though, to help explain it and put the perspective on it.
Stephen Yates, our very good friend at YatesComms. We love your family, Stephen, and I know we'll be talking with you again soon. God bless you. Thank you so much, Dana. Take good care.
