I don't know. If that has ever happened before in U.S. history, it's happening because President Trump backs the blue. President Trump has given law enforcement the resources we need to take the fight across the world. And the Attorney General has been relentless in her mission.

To make sure that these victims are remembered and that we bring them some semblance of peace. Anybody else like the timing on this? Just me? Anybody like the timing? I like the timing.

Why do I like the timing? I think it has to do with the why why pray tell Kane? With what Comer has and and the depositions that they're wanting with Clinton. Oh I think that makes this I didn't mean to sound like a skecksies, but it makes this much more interesting. Does it doesn't it, though?

It makes it super interesting. Kane, I think- I dare say, I think you think you landed on something, Kane, not to sound like... Moira rose, but still I do believe you landed on something. It's um the timing of the testimony that they're going to have. is Just chef's kiss.

It's perfection. And I don't think it was planned. Like, I don't think that. Don't misunderstand me. I'm not saying that Trump was waiting until.

Just because you know there's going to be some stupid drive-by. That's like, are you accusing, are you saying, so the Trump administration's now waiting to go after these terror? First off, let's remember why we were in this situation in the first place with Benghazi. Can I just really quickly flash back before we get started? Just remember, remember all the times Chris Stevens had asked for increased security?

So we've in the in the months since Benghazi happened, I mean, we've had them on our program. uh you know those particular Servicemen who were working in the capacity offering protection and dealing however they were could under that administration. In Libya, this was, there were a lot of things that happened.

So it's understandable if you're kind of trying to rack your memory about the timeline of it. But just let me remind you: this was all, remember the Green Revolution, right? with Iran. Remember everything with With Egypt and the protests that they had in Egypt, et cetera. Remember all of that?

Because who was Secretary of State at the time? It was Hillary Clinton. And so there were later emails that came out. And you remember these emails. This will be a quick way for you to remember.

There were emails in which Chelsea Clinton was being Uh talked about by some of Hillary Clinton's big time insiders. And remember, they were saying she was like a nepo baby and all this stuff. And they were, and that made news, and there had to be apologies given on the Clinton camp of it all.

So There, so you had these emails that were coming out. You had Benghazi, you had Egypt, because this was about the time, too, that Hillary Clinton. was in Egypt, if you remember. And excuse me. And she was.

Playing kingmaker with the Muslim Brotherhood. And the Muslim Brotherhood at that point. Was pretty much persona non grata in Egypt. Like they were banned in Egypt. And Hillary Clinton went in, and this was, you know, the Green Revolution, all this stuff happening.

She went in and actually endorsed, if you remember. The Muslim Brotherhood Candidate. And It was a disaster. I mean, we all remember what happened. It was an absolute unmitigated disaster.

And I mean, it was that kind of kicked a lot of things off because the Muslim Brotherhood was a terrorist organization. All of this was happening literally at the same time. And then you had Benghazi. And why is this important to note all of the other things? That were happening at the time because she was being accused of nation building.

And Sid Blumenthal, who was the guy who had been talking about charging. Chelsea Clinton in those emails. Sid Blumenthal was the guy who also was in email. He was caught. discussing Investment opportunities and ways to get into Libya after Gaddafi had been killed.

And how to do all of that, they were looking at it like, oh, we're gonna nation build as a business opportunity for the Clintons, or I'd be sorry, the Clinton Foundation. Let's remember all of that. to set the stage, it it's It's inc I mean the timing is just Wow, for this.

So that gives you a little bit of insight into the state of things as it was happening. And like I said, it's understandable. You know, if you're like, oh my gosh, there were so many things happening. There were, there was a lot of things happening at the time, but that being announced today, that's pretty significant. Do you with them testifying by the Clintons?

So first off, I'm going to apologize in advance to Juan.

Okay. Because poor wands, you're really going to have to try really hard at growing some extra arms because the video that is going to come out of this is going to be. Cain. Yeah. My dude.

Imagine what difference does it make. on all the steroids in the world. Just saying. All right, so first off, welcome back, welcome to the program. We're at the top of the first hour.

And We're going to get into some of the latest stuff with Iran. We've got media. The media is just apoplectic because of all the stuff with Washington Post yesterday. We were talking about some of that. Uh we also have You know, your midterm stuff, we got GOP stuff.

I have a bunch of things, a bunch of odds and ends to get you set up with before. We kind of kickstart. The weekend. And then I've got some just a basket. I don't even know what to call this, a basket of WTF.

Mm? I don't even know what to call some of this.

So, we're going to get into all of that as well. But, of course, obviously, Benghazi, you know, catching the mastermind of this. This guy. Who's thank you? Oh, you could do deplorables.

Yeah, we could do that. Thanks, Steve. Yeah, at the end of the month, Katie barred the door. I'm really sorry.

So Zabir al-Bakush is his name. He's in Maryland now. I really need a sweatsuit. Or a tracksuit picture of him, like we'd have of Maduro. I feel like that needs to be the gold standard now.

Everybody gets. The jump suit. photo right So he landed at Maryland 3 a.m. And he's the guy who. Is uh Named as leading the assault on those government facilities back in 2012 against Libya.

And so you had the Ambassador Chris Stevens, and remember all of the times that he was begging, begging, begging, begging, begging people, please, for the love of all things, holy, we need more security. We need this. Like you, when when that hearing got underway, The amount of stuff that came out about that. Not only, you know, did you have the Sean Smith, who was the information officer, but you also had Glenn Doherty, Tyrone Roods. They all knew so, I mean, this, they knew that all of this, that something was up, something was being planned.

They all knew this. And Chris Stevens had been asking the State Department for weeks. For some kind of assistance, we need more security, we need more help. And famously, they were denied. They were denied all of this.

And it really led to, I mean, the chaos that happened after. And I mean, there's a movie, I mean, you guys have seen the movie that's named after it. I mean, it was. 13. I mean, it was 13 hours to get reinforcements, and they remember when, remember when it happened, remember.

what Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton said, I will never forget this as long as I live. You know how you have I think for the Boomer generation, you have The video of Jane Fonda there. In with the Viet Cong and doing the video with the communists. I think for this, This was kind of similar in that for us because Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton had a press conference, if you remember. They had a press conference when they were bringing back.

the bodies of These Chris Stevens and Tyrone Woods, etc. And They stood in this airplane hangar and they had these giant ferns there. This is way before Between Two Ferns. Remember this, Kane? They had the giant ferns there.

They had the bodies that were on those like roller things that they have their caskets on. And they stood there in the airplane hangar. between those bodies. And they blamed a video. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton both looked right down the barrel of the camera and they blamed a video.

They said it was a video. It was this video that was about Islam, and that's what kicked it all off. That's what they did. They blamed a video. And you have And it was a video that was critical of Islam.

And they were saying, well, that's what really ticked all this off. And so all of these guys, getting caught up into it, they were trying to make it like they were really doing everything that they could to downplay this, everything they possibly could to downplay it. And in the reality, the reality of it was. No, it was not based on a video. Remember they jailed the guy.

They jailed the guy who made the video. The guy who was behind that they said this video that was in that kicked off Benghazi. They put him in jail for this video. If you ever wanted to have a discussion. About Free speech under the Obama-Clinton administration or the Obama-Biden administration.

Nakala Nakalo is the guy. He was uh imprisoned for this. They'd literally jailed him. They used him as the scapegoat and they jailed this guy. For this video, The Innocence of Muslims is what it was called.

I don't know why I was thinking, not without my daughter, or some kind of lifetime movie. And This was crazy. He said the guy said that it wasn't anti-Muslim, that his film was anti-terrorism. And this was after the Boston bombing, if you remember. And the guy had said, well, you know, maybe the terrorists in Boston would have been deterred from committing their atrocity if they had just seen my movie.

It was a movie that was specifically about you know, criticizing terrorism. But they just decided, and by the way, that video was out like years before. the the stuff in Benghazi even happened. It was out years before. But it didn't matter.

Obama Biden, they needed a scapegoat.

So they blamed this filmmaker.

So they stood there. in this airplane hangar. The caskets with the bodies of those fallen servicemen and the ambassador, Chris Stevens, the information. Uh check uh uh All of this. And they blamed the video.

And then they jailed the guy for making it under I mean, they literally imprisoned a guy to use as a scapegoat. That's what happened under the Obama-Biden administration. That is one of the most shocking things I've ever seen in my life. And I was just appalled. We were on air when it happened.

Or when that press conference happened. And I just, I remember we're sitting there and we're looking at this like. Oh my gosh, I cannot believe that they're blame. I mean, I can, but I can't believe that they're actually doing this in front of the nation. Blaming the nation for this.

Are blaming the video in front of the nation for this? Just shocking. And They've they did release the guy from jail. And that's it. Think about it.

Don't you think that would have put that guy in danger? If they said, oh, this guy made a video criticizing Islam, when it was a video criticizing terrorism, so sorry if you confuse. But That's what all this is.

So I cannot wait.

Now that we've got this guy. I cannot wait. We're also going to get into posting AI slot videos and screen grabbing them and not properly editing them. Right.

Okay. 'Cause that's what POTUS did this morning. We're going to talk about that and more. As we move, I know. I don't want to talk about that, but it is what it is, man.

The U.S.-Canada hockey rivalry? No, no, no, just like the games, just in general. I only care that they're in Milan. That's the only thing I fell asleep during Christmas. Like, yay, Milan.

So, Canada-U.S. rivalry heats up at the Cortina Games. They already held their uh opening press conference. This is going to be interesting. Canada versus the US, the long-standing rivalry.

I don't know. It might be the only thing I pay attention to, to be honest. And not the women's stuff. I don't care how mean it sounds. I just, you know, we got limited attention spans.

So I don't know, Kane. Are you watching it? Are you watching any of that? Yeah, there's been some exciting stuff, like the skiing and all that. There's some impressive.

There's a woman who had torn an ACL a week ago. She skipped. That's Lindsey Vaughn, and you don't ski downhill like that with a torn ACL. I'm like, what is an ACL then? That's amazing to see that.

That's not even right. Let's see. Bitcoin dropped 16%. I've. Uh, employment agency run by AI.

Wait, what? A new site lets AI rent human bodies. I do like the idea of like allowing people who might be homebound to like be able to control robots for service positions. I think that that's a very interesting trademarking. It's an interesting idea.

All right, so first up, and by the way, you can get the newsletter over at Substack, chapter and verse, Facebook, YouTube, like and subscribe. The um I saw this last night. Here's the headline. I'm not playing the video because I hate giving. people who are stupid.

Attention. And I don't want to shower them with more attention than They deserve. The headline is this. Fired TPUSA staffer rips into Erika Kirk's leadership team after Charlie's assassination, saying, quote, it breaks my heart.

So, this broad, who's a yes, I did say that word, cry. a member of the PR team for TPUSA. I it sounds like After I, because I watched some of her video before my eyes glassed over, because I was so completely bored by her own self-importance. Is you're probably bad at PR if you don't understand why you were let go.

So this person This chick she worked at TPUSA, she did this 12-minute video. Basically repeating Gal Sharpton's. Accusations, Macabre, Legitimatez. I mean, I feel like I'm hearing like hood magic. Like, what in the hell is happening?

Are you that's what it is? It's a hood spell. I don't know. It's true. Legitimatize.

Macabre, it's like when Al Sharpton says Signore Weaver. How does he say Chipotle? How does he say Chipotle? It's a sharpened spell. Woo!

So This chick went on repeating cow sharpens. Claims She said that she was summoned to a meeting and blah, blah, blah. And it's all conspiracy theory stuff. And She Said that she was informed something about a board member had a daughter who was friends with an employee who didn't like Erica. I don't even understand.

Long story short, she went and was talking smack about her employers, and then she ends up getting fired for talking smack about her employers. And I'm thinking What is difficult to understand here? Is this some like Zoomer Waffen? Believe. I went and I talked smack about my boss.

Can you believe I was fired for talking smack about my boss? I mean, I only just, like, suggested that my boss murdered my other boss. What? Yeah. And then you're surprised that there would be a consequence for that.

That's like me saying, hey, Kane, Mike, and Rich over at Radio America. I think they killed some people. Right? And then Mike and Rich finding out and going, wait, what's up? Why are you saying this?

Yeah, they totally killed some people. Remember, wink, wink, nudge, nudge. We could get fired for that. Yeah. You can't just like smack talk your employer.

And think that you are still owed a job. You aren't owed anything. And I have to say, this is very bad, PR. This is not the way that you would handle it. Especially if you were trying to get even, this is not the way you'd handle it.

Because it just puts you in the position of attacking a widow, and that looks bad publicly.

So if you're such a great PR meister, then why did you put yourself in this unfortunate, disadvantageous position?

So And again, It's like she's just repeating Gail Sharpton's stuff. I still can't believe people are going on and on. Who would assassinate Charlie Kirk? Who's gonna? I honestly believe the Zumerwaffen probably killed him now.

Let's just go ahead and go on with that. There's more evidence that the Zumerwaffen killed him and the woke Reich killed him than Mossad or anything else. I mean, let's just go ahead and take the crazy train to its final destination, shall we? Let's see where this logic of rail goes. It's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

And I don't know why. I honestly, I think it's because people, if you want me to put my tinfoil hat on, I think that people don't like the fact that I do think that there is an effort on the right to encourage Identity politics like the left does, but then they act like it's not leftist because they put it in a veneer of rightyism. And I do think that TPUSA, they have some really good people there. And then they, I do think that the organization buddies up to some people that are incredibly questionable. But They're really trying very hard to do the good thing.

And it seems like there are people attacking them for not bending the knee and embracing all of the woke Reich stuff because it's all the woke Reich people that are floating this stuff. It's all the woke Reich people that are attacking a widow. It's all the woke Reich people that are pushing these conspiracy theories. It's every thirst thought with an axe to grind that is out there trying to sell this for clicks. I mean, that's the common denominator here.

The idea and selling this stuff, this is what happened after Andrew passed away. There was a lot of, and a lot of it was done. You know, a lot of the conspiracy theories were floated by that Nepo baby's dad on the view, Alyssa Farah. Her dad over at WorldNet Daily was the guy who pushed that, oh, Andrew was killed. Shadowy thing.

He was the guy who pushed all that stuff.

So, you can understand that's one of the reasons why I dislike Alyssa Farah in case you wanted to know the full story. It's because she's a Nepo baby whose dad was a loon.

So I it's like the same thing is happening with Charlie. And seeing this stuff happen. I also think that you're a pathetic sack of meat if you're trying to make life harder for his widow. I don't give a rat's backside if you like how his widow is handling stuff. Who are you?

To sit here and criticize how a widow is dealing with having her husband gunned down in public by a lefty nutjob. And then the left celebrates it. And then you have the local Reich that's attacking you because they want to control your organization. And that's the truth of it. These people are trying to take control of the organization.

I do think that there is some truth to that. And to see this stuff play out like this is stupid. I mean, all of these people, Gal Sharpton and the like, what the hell are these people talking about every single day? Whether it's Tucker Qatarsson or somebody else, all I see, I've never seen anybody so obsessed with talking about Mossad spies and Israeli whatever and pumping that day in and day out. Do they talk about special elections?

Hell no. Do they talk about bellwether elections going into midterms or anything that we could do to win in midterms? Hell no. You know why? Because none of these people pushing this stuff have ever been in there at the street level doing the heavy lifting.

That's the truth. A lot of them come from Fox News, and they had these cushy, glassy studios, and they had a whole staff that did everything from wipe their ass to write their copy. You actually think that some of these people were involved in changing anything on the ground level? Please. They sit up top.

And they just commentate. That's all they do. They're commentators. They provide, that's all that is. And if they want to fashion themselves into some kind of like conservative activist now, okay, but none of us actual activists ever remember you ever being there.

in the trenches when it counted. But these are the same people that are all I hear about is, oh, Israel, Israel, Israel, every damn podcast, every damn episode, it's all they talk about. There is no diverting to any other subject. If they're not having a Giant pleasurable circle with Imams from Qatar, then they're doing this. It's Israel, Israel.

It's all I hear. Get new material. Talk about stuff that matters, that's happening here, that's affecting what we're going to be dealing with coming up in midterms. I find it interesting that people get out there and say, well, you can't talk about this in this country and then be America first. How the hell are you America first talking about buying houses in Qatar and then going after organizations that actually do stuff?

It's a bunch of grifters. I get so tired of it. And yeah, yeah, we're going to gatekeep because a lot of us busted our asses and put our names on the line and actually did endanger our own safety and that of our families in order to score a little bit of ground that we are desperately holding on to with no help from these losers.

So, yeah, we are going to gatekeep people who threaten that, threaten past victories, and threaten past ground gains. Absolutely. And if you don't gatekeep, then you're no better than unlocking your door and letting every Tom Dick and Harry come in. You might as well, I mean, you gatekeep at the border. You gatekeeper baseball team.

You gatekeeps Super Bowl halftime. Yes, you want good stuff happening. I just, I get so tired of this.

So, yeah, this broad sits here. I can't believe I can't, I talk smack about my employer, and I got fired. Wow. Who would have thought about that cause and effect in 2026? Wow, so shocking.

Gets tiring. Gets super tiring. But I do think it's a power play. I think people are trying to get a hold of that organization. That's really, honestly, that's what it feels like.

And it makes me wonder, and Lorraine makes a good point, this is probably the chick that was leaking to Candace, too. This was the chick probably leaking to Gal Sharpton. All for clicks. Is it worth it? I mean, good night.

Get some new material. They can't get new material. Because the moment any kind of controversy with this goes away, Gal Sharpton and everybody else lose their influence. Because they only had influence because of TPUSA to begin with. They lose their influence.

Without conspiracy theories, who's going to click? Who's gonna watch? And that's the truth of it. They're not well read enough to do day in and day out stuff.

So they do the conspiracy theory stuff. Or maybe they get bought and paid to sit here and promote the great, the virtues of Islamism. while attacking Christianity. from overseas. Also that.

Oh, I don't give a rat's backside about being nice to any of these people. None of these people matter in my day-to-day life. It does not affect me if they fall off a cliff tomorrow or they stay topside. I don't care. None of it affects me because they've never done anything but bitch and moan on their podcast.

That's all they do. They've never been there when it counts. They like to pretend, but sorry, posting photos of yourself on Instagram and running your mouth in your own little room towards a camera. That's not enough to do it.

So We have this. Gosh, do I even want to talk about this stupid video?

So this morning HODUS had a video. And it was a video. that he retweeted that someone posted.

Someone had screen recorded a video, and then it was something about. What was it? The 2020 stuff, election integrity. And then afterwards, you know how if you're screen recording something, and then the next video starts to play? That's what happened.

That's my guess. Because it was one video and you and you know you're watching it and the videos will go up and they they switch out. and it looks like someone was screen recording it and then another video started. And it was a video of somebody that had superimposed the Obama's heads on guerrillas in. And it was like a Lion King thing, but it had all, it was like politicians superimposed over a bunch of animals.

I don't know. Bottom line is, don't repost AI slop. without watching it all the way through. And if you have an entire social media team at your disposal, just make sure that they edit the next video that's coming up so we can avoid any kind of stupid distractions. These are unforced errors, and I'm not going to make excuses for dumb mistakes.

Just don't repost AI slot that hasn't been edited. It's not the end of the world. I mean, and now you're, now it's like headlines, and now it has to, everybody has to, he's deleted it. It was deleted. And now this is going to be the news cycle.

The day that Trump gets the Benghazi guy, and this is going to be the news cycle.

Now you can say, well, it's the media jumping on it. Or you could say, maybe POTUS should have watched the video till the end. And then had one of the million people that work for him maybe edit that part out. Edit that out before reposting because it was a different video that was coming up. Do I think that he posted that video?

I don't think he posted the video of them with the animals. I don't think he posted that. But it ended up in the video that got posted. Because they didn't edit out when you're screen recording something. You have to crop it.

You have to edit it because I screen record stuff all the time. You have to edit it. And then you always have the next video that auto plays, and that's what happened here. And they just didn't edit just to the end of the video that he wanted. It's not an excuse.

I just think he didn't post the animal one. But I also think that I need him to stop literally shooting himself in his own foot with this stuff. Or well, figuratively, not literally. You have the day that you got the guy who was the mastermind by Benghazi, and you got the Clintons testifying at the end of the month, and then you just decide to throw a giant. wrench in the news cycle and now everybody's attention has been diverted to this.

Just stop. as we move are partners that help bring you the program. It's the folks over at Burnagun. Like I've told you a million times, I always carry, I have no problem using lethal force, blah, blah, blah.

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. I am personally offended by what was presented.

Well what I mean? on so many different levels. One thing I would like to see updated is the word. Homeless? To unhoused.

Shut up. Breathe into that mic more. I'm not done. I just don't want Mr. Berman to.

For this to be on him, that's the way our state of California. That's the language that they use, and that's their reflection. What does that mean? That's the language we have to use. Those are their entire statements.

These people are insufferable. This is why I could not. I would have gotten up, ripped her chain off, and beat her with it. There's no way. There's no way.

I mean, if I'm on the board. I'm like, what are we doing? You're wasting time, bro. Shut up. Shut up.

You're wasting time over something stupid. It's performative virtue because apparently you lack all the other ones. I mean, instead of saying homeless, use a different word that means the same thing: unhoused. It's the same thing. I'm on billionaire.

I'm unbillionaired. Ah! Yes. Unbillionaired. Oh my gosh.

I am Unferraried. Can't believe this. I'm outraged on your behalf. I mean, I thank you. Oh my gosh, I am untanked.

Yeah, untanked. I can turn everything into like a A knee, but also simultaneously presented as though it was something that was done to me. Yeah, I'm unbazooked. That's really what it is. Homeless means you're less, you have, don't have a house.

Unhoused, who unhoused you? Right.

It's the language. It's the psychological nonsense. I'd be like, listen, Shirley, you are on, you're at the, this is a Wendy's. This is not. What are you doing here?

Taking the time to do that. I'm sorry, I'm so offended. No one cares if you're offended. Shut up. Oh my gosh.

This is why I can't. People are like, why don't you go to Lake City Council stuff? Really? Every episode would be cops, bad boys, what you want. They'd be coming to deal with me because I am not dealing with that nonsense.

Oh my gosh. Just crazy. Unhoused. I'm so offended. Are you like the person that's without the house or no?

Oh, you're not. You're just doing some performative virtue signaling because you're a dumb ditzy leftist. All right, Shirley. Appreciate you. Yeah.

I told you this was a really weird Second half of this hour. We have another hour on the way. You don't want to go anywhere. Stick with us. Back in moments.

We're at the top of the second hour. Can find us on Substack Chapter and Verse, YouTube, Facebook. I tell you to go to the chat. But it's on a platform that surprises us, so It's true. It's Umble Ray.

But all the good people are hanging out there, all right?

So. The Olympics. I'm not launching. I don't know when I stopped. It used to be a thing I used to enjoy, but then everything got so political and stupid that it made everything unenjoyable, and I just kind of threw that in with it.

And then you had all the Dudes who want to be lay days. Who got involved? I saw this for I have two stories for you. One of them. Ah, boy.

One of them is that is uh going to be really difficult to discuss. The other Is this Algerian? You remember the Algerian Olympic boxer? What what does he go by? A main Emman.

A man, Keefe? Huh? Oh right, woman, whoa men, whoa man. She gave uh or he gave sorry an interview with French sports outlet Les Equippe. And I'm a man Khalif confirmed that he had the SRY gene.

that's carried on a Y chromosome.

So everyone's like, can you believe he admitted finally that he's a man? He needed to admit a man before you went, oh, well, that made sense. Really? What gave it away, the giant Adams apple or the other giant atoms apple? What gave it away?

The fact that he's like 6'2. What gave it away? The fact that he talks like this Excuse me, it's mixed. It is ma'am. I mean, what gave it away?

I'm curious. They were allowing him, the Olympic committee, to continue boxing in one woman's category where he ultimately took gold. And that was the International Boxing Association. He uh failed a sex test. Yeah.

It's very easy to see. Pull down them britches. We don't have to sit here and do all the blood tests and all this stuff. Pull down them britches. It's what we're gonna do.

We're doing it the old fashioned way here, I'm a man khalif. That's what we're doing.

So They, why was this like a big thing? Multiple leaked medical reports. Dude. You know there's one easy way to check, right? Just saying.

I just said, I didn't need to check. Only I could look and be like, that's a man. Yeah, that's all I needed. I think What gave it away? Hello, I am it's me, a woman.

What gave it away? Good night.

Well, she's a guy, so. Yeah, it's a. Oh, my word And he failed all these chromosome tests, and they, and then the IBA said that they had been barred from releasing them by the Algerian Olympic Committee. I think Algeria needs to be yeeted out of competition. No, this is a woman.

See, it's a woman. Sh he wears the lipstick. It's a woman. No, it's a man. His name's I'm Amaman Khalif, let's be real.

So The Algerian Olympic Committee was trying to hide all this because we knew it was a dude. They thought you were stupid. They thought they could bring out this 6'2 dude. With a package in an Adam's Apple, deep voice and facial hair, and be like, no, that's a woman. But that there is a lady, it's a female woman.

That's Not.

So he failed all these tests.

Now he's finally admitting, yeah, I had this gene or whatever. You're a dude, stop doing it. Just you're a dude with a weenus. You're a dude. Stop.

Why is it so st why do we have to go?

Well, all these chromosomes, you're a nude. You look like a dude. You talk like a dude. You have bumps where dudes have bumps. You're a dude.

That's it. It's not difficult. Oh my gosh. I just, I wouldn't want to compete in any organization that's confused about this. Also confusing.

You need to know this because I had to read it. It's one of those. I don't understand, I'm not even going to pretend that I understand how this would work. Not even going to.

So this started trending last night. And it's in the New York Times. Would you like to hear? The headline. Oh, it's okay, because Juan's just going to put up the tweet.

That's okay. Go ahead and hit us.

So, reports have surfaced before the Winter Olympics that allege ski jumpers are injecting their wings with hyaluronic acid to fly farther. The World Anti-Doping Agency has vowed to investigate. The erection. Yeah. A fly car?

Like a squirrel? Like I don't I don't understand. How That Now The New York Times admits it's a lurid claim. But they're writing about it anyway. It's the International Bob Sleigh and Skeleton Federation.

I just have to stop right there. Wait, Kane, write down the skeleton federation for a band name. That's an action. We're stopping everything right now. This.

I know it's like some kind of Swiss sport, isn't it? That's when that's when you go head first down the hill or something like that, and they call it Skeleton or something. I don't know. Uh and that's what a toboggan is. That it's called the skeleton.

I don't care. I just got an amazing view of skeletons on a sleigh, and it's amazing. Uh Skeletons on Bobsheads ring, Making spirits bright.

So it's the Ha ha ha ha. International Bob Slay and Skeleton Federation. They're banning the new helmets Britain wanted to wear because of aerodynamic ridges. But then apparently, things went to a new level because ski jumpers are allegedly injecting their. Yeah.

Male copulatory organs with hyaluronic acid to fly a little bit further. It was The claims were reported in German newspaper Bild. And Now, the New York Times does say Now hold up. Yes, there's some science here. There's a little bit of science that backs this up, just enough to make this a story.

I'd love to hear this.

So. Okay. How it does. The science is that if you inject the copulatory organ with the hyaluronic acid, it increases the size and gives ski jumpers. Bigger genitalia at the point that their suits are measured by 3D scanners.

The temporarily enhanced measurements would theoretically mean athletes are given a bigger, looser suit. like a sail catching the wind. and would allow them to make longer jumps. I'm glad. That they explain this because I was thinking, isn't that stuff packed away when you're doing the jump?

Like It doesn't deploy like a parachute.

Okay. Yeah. So The build newspaper Quoted this guy saying, Yeah, it is possible to achieve a temporary visual thickening of the organ by injecting paraffin or hyaluronic acid. Paraffin? Good god.

I don't want to win anything that bad.

Now they haven't accused any specific athletes. But where? That's the Bobsley skeleton people. They've found this gets weird. It's like a h a mad lib of what?

They said, Well, if presented with evidence of wrongdoing, we are going to investigate. All right, is that considered doping then, if that's what you're doing? If you're injecting. I mean, it's temporary and it just gives you a bigger suit.

So, is it considered doping, though? Who are the people who have to they have to use a 3D scanner to measure the suit? Wow, these people this year have some Come in with some larger packages. I just don't. Man, you have to be really dedicated to the win.

There's nothing. That's what but so they have no proof. It's just a hunch.

Well, what makes them think that this is happening? Who had to get a bigger suit? That's what they should be looking at. And why do you care? Who cares?

It's all about getting the oh man. Oh, I'm not even reading the chat's comments. I'm not even doing this. Have they measured the advantage? Like, you know, let's say that someone got a suit and didn't inject their thing with hyaluronic acid, and then someone did, and then the difference between the two, like what is it?

It's a longer term for catfishing. This is the measurable advantage. You get a bigger super suit, I guess. Oh, I know. Yeah, but what does it end up like?

You get extra two yards in the flight? Like, how, like, what's the measurable advantage? I'm just trying to figure that out. I think that's that's it. You're up for like a second longer.

A second? I don't know. I'm making this up 'cause this is insane. Oh man.

So I guess if you're a chick you got Two places you can inject then. I'm just saying, you know. There's all kinds of You guys wanna hear something funny?

Okay, so you guys remember that, what's her name? Valentina Gomez, this crazy chick. who was fun who she tried running in Missouri. and she came in like thirteenth. And then she decided to carpet bag down to Texas to run.

She liked just got to Texas and started running. She's the chick who tries to act like a gun bunny and And tries to shoot guns horribly and all this other stuff. She's just as bad. And she runs her mouth and calls everything gay and lame. Everything is gay and lame.

It's pretty gay and lame to live out of a PO box, I just think.

So she had her voter registration suspended because she lied, which is a crime, what she did. She lied after listing a PO box. as her Residency address. She was registered using, and the address was described as unit 16.

So she used unit instead of PO box. Yeah. And you can't register to vote via PO PO box because that's Well, that actually tears down voter integrity. Illegal.

So the Bell County Elections Administrator. Sent a notice, and this is per current revolt. Current Revolt was writing about this. They sent her an election notice. And To confirm that this was her voting address, but she refused.

She didn't respond.

So there's pictures she she supposedly lives in this tiny little post office. with a tiny little P.O. Box.

So she was registered to vote there. She apparently owns property in Georgetown, Texas, but now she can't switch to that house address. because the February 2nd deadline to register already passed.

So then she decided to go on X. And she was like, I lost my right to vote because I'm so stupid. I didn't know I couldn't live in a P.O. box. I'm banned by the GOB.

She literally made a mess for herself, and it's everybody else's problem. That's all this chick does. She's like the drunk chick at the bar who doesn't get the hint that you're not interested. She's like, I'm being investigated by multiple federal agencies. I'm erased from the voting rules.

The establishment is scared. No one is scared of you. You're an annoying carpetbagger who doesn't even shoot well. You try to be this gun bunny. Stop.

So no one is rigging it? She literally completely shot herself in the foot. And she's blaming everyone else and acting like it's being done to her. She is not effective enough to actually do anything. And please don't use the the Stop trying to hide behind the veneer of Jesus while you sin.

You're lying to voters, you're lying to them, you carpet bagged and tried to lie to them about where you lived. You got caught, it's a crime. that you accused Democrats of committing, but here you are committing it. And now you're trying to like invoke the name of our Lord and Savior as a way to cover for your sinning. Girl, go back to Missouri.

A car crashed into a busy Los Angeles grocery store, and three people were killed, seven people were injured. That's insane. Uh, this whole story. Good night.

This uh it was a little They don't really know what caused the crash and they don't know who the driver was, but apparently she also hit a bicyclist before she ran into the store.

So yeah, that's rough. Minute Made has discontinued frozen juice concentrate after 80 years. How are my great aunts gonna make their boozy slush? every holiday. They said they're discontinuing their frozen orange juice concentrate in the U.S.

and Canada. I actually, I like those. I mean, it's like literally for. It's the boozy slush, man. Why are we gonna do boozy slush?

We'll figure it out. You have to April to grab some cans. And I am actually right now going to make a grocery order. No, to self, get some cans for the slush. I'm literally doing this right now.

Yeah, you get till April and then it's gone. I, man, I don't even know why. They didn't say why they were getting rid of it, though. Is it because of Maha stuff? I mean, I don't care if there's chemicals in it, it makes great slush.

Saying, I don't care, man. Give me the boozy slush.

Sometimes you need that to get through some holidays. All right.

So, Valentine's Day spending is going to hit a record $29 billion. I don't get that. I've never been a big Valentine's person. It's just kind of weird because it's performative, that's why. It just feels performative.

I just think it's better if it's like out of the blue. But you know. They said that on average, people spend about $200 on gifts. Any more at the cost of flowers? It's like a medium-sized bouquet now.

It is crazy.

So, yeah, you don't need to go into debt for that stuff. That's goofy. A Linwood police officer hitched a ride in a pickup truck to catch a stolen bike suspect. That was nice that he did that. They chased down a guy who stole a bike and apparently looks like he got him.

They arrested the suspect. The guy had $30,000 in active warrants.

So he has done some stuff in his life. He's not, wasn't a really good person. Let's see. When you cut carbs down to zero, I don't believe, this is where I disagree with RFK Jr. He's touting the keto diet as a cure for schizophrenia.

First off, no. And keto only works for certain people. I'm one of the people that doesn't have enough particular enzyme in my liver to process it, so I can't do it. I don't have schizophrenia, though, either. Stick around.

And so when you see buildings and landscapes like this. you can feel certain Whoever did this is on the right side.

So Tucker's been touring the Middle East and he's That sounds pretty Luciferian Luciferian to me. Because you realize that the devil was described as one of the most beautiful angels, too. That seems like a weird measure. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you.

What I don't understand about this. And I made mention of this. I had posted about this on X. I'm like, I don't understand why someone who is admittedly new in the faith. is trying to act like a shepherd.

of it. and trying to lecture. Other Christians. On behalf, by the way, Uh Like Cutter and Jordan, etcetera. I just, I don't know why someone is trying to be a shepherd and lecture on it.

I mean, I was thinking 1 Timothy 3:6. Where that comes to mind, or the stories of Paul or Joshua or Moses or David, all of these biblical leaders that were tempered for years. Before They came into the the calling to which they had been assigned by God. I just I don't get that. I don't get why.

Because he's, you know, I was talking to a friend of mine. He was like, well, he pretends that, you know, talking, saying that Tucker was just pretending that he notices things, but it's a clear agenda. And I also thought too, well, if you Think that it has to be beautiful in order to come from God. He would probably really not like some of God's angels. Why is it that whenever the angels appeared, they always said, Fear not.

'Cause they probably were pretty terrifying. I mean, there's only one description. Of when angels appeared to Mary and they were telling her, you know, greetings favored one, and they had to say, Don't be afraid, although Mary was pondering what the request meant according to scripture. But The way that they're described, for instance, Like the cherubim. When you think of the word cherubim, what do you think of?

I mean, we're coming near Valentine's Day, so I immediately think of little fat, cutie little angels, little fat, little, cutie ones. They got their little arrow, their little But that's actually not biblically accurate. They are first in Genesis. And they are outside of the Garden of Eden, and they're there to cut anybody down that tried to enter after Adam and Eve were kicked out. I mean, they had flaming swords on their persons.

That's what they were holding. They seem they're described as like pretty fearsome warriors. Not like the little fat things that You go around in teehee and shoot people with arrows, right? Ezekiel, this is where it really gets into it.

So, Ezekiel. The cherubim are described as hovering between burning, whirling wheels. and a sapphire that form resembling a throne their wings are as loud as God's voice, and their entire bodies are covered with eyes. Um No hate. Not necessarily totally what I think of as a beauty standard.

And then they describe four faces, a cherub. I don't know what that means, but in some. Art that is telling the story of the Bible. It's depicted as an ox.

So I don't know if that's what, you know, a cherub, a lion, a human, and an eagle. Then there's the seraphim. Fiery six-winged beings that stand in the presence of God. And one pair of wings covers their eyes, the other covers their feet, and then the other they fly around the throne of God. And they worship and they exalt God.

And that's their, they're described as a constant course of holy, holy, holy. And then you have like the there's a couple of other things too, but they They're all, I mean, you have a living creatures in Revelation. Their description sounds a lot like the seraphim. And then you have the wheels that they're talking about with Ezekiel. And I'm just saying, some of this stuff looks.

Pretty. You also have angels that speak to Uh Tons of people throughout the Bible, whether it's to Jacob or Abraham or Hagar or Mary or Peter or Paul or Joseph or whomever. And They, depending on the translation, I think the translation comes into it, but they use first-person pronouns, et cetera. But Even then, they're described as like, yeah, resembles a human or something. They just get into the messages, not so much the appearance as in Ezekiel and Revelation.

So I'm just saying. He probably wouldn't like them. That's a weird standard.

Well, I just think if it's, you know, God's beauty, everything that He sends is beautiful. And if it's beautiful, it's from the Lord. The Devil's a great deceiver. And that's very, very bad teaching to say something. That well, if it's beautiful, then God's beauty, so it comes from God.

Not necessarily. Not necessarily at all. I just, again, I go back to why are people, I thought of this because there was this big story, I didn't want to talk about this, there's this big story that was. Uh yesterday. About a guy that was really kind of well known for being a real Cretan on the right.

I don't want to even say his name. He worked at the Blaze at one point. He was canned at the Blaze. He had a lot of accusations against him. And all of this stuff came out.

And apparently, like he cheated on his wife, and his wife cheated on her boyfriend, and there were abortions involved, and trannies, and all kinds of stuff. And it's just, I want to go one day. without some Cosplaying trad. Christian influencer. Just absolutely crashing out.

I want to go one full day. And there is a major problem with some of this stuff on the right. With a lot of these like influencers, I think you got to be tempered. And I kind of hold in line. This is why I don't like, I don't like, you know.

I'm immediately biased against young pastors. I know that sounds mean to say, but I am. Because I want someone who's been tempered. I want someone, I'm not going to take lectures on anybody who's been married for less than I have. That's just the way it is.

I've been married 25 years. I am not going to take lectures from anybody who has not been married as long as I have. I just like you wouldn't take lectures. from anyone who did your job for less time than you have. You want someone.

Not because you're trying to gatekeep something, you want someone to bring something more to the table than your own expertise from living it. Does that make sense? You want someone who has been through every pitfall and who knows it. and can give you a message on that.

Now granted, there are some exceptions, but that's why they're exceptions and they're not the the rule. And on the on the right, the right has been very, very eager to Post-stop, like any kind of influencer, if they so much as pretend, like this one chick. I guess in that the case that I was talking about, this is a girl who apparently was going out and having abortions right and left and cheating on her husband.

Well, she was like, Oh, I became Catholic and then she met the Pope and there's pictures of her with the Pope. And I'm just like, What in the world is happening? You realize what a horrible Lesson on faith that you are giving to people who might ultimately be swayed. This is why you don't allow brand new people into the strategy room. Because of stuff like this, you want people who have proven that they are actually legit.

And now we have, you know, these people who describe themselves as these trad Christian influencers out there talking about their copulatory organs and how it was, you know, they felt bad that they had their mistress have an abortion and all this. It's insane. And it's like more and more, I keep seeing this. Judge them by their fruits. I mean, there's a reason that you are that you are told that specifically.

There's a reason that there are so many lessons about judging what is on the vine and what the tree produces. And there are so many lessons on. The The Some of actions of faith and not just protestations of it or claims that you follow it. And it's a thing because that leads people away, especially if they're people whose hearts are softened to the point where they're considering giving their lives to Christ. And then they see all of that.

That's going to I mean, what does that what message does that send them? That's another reason why I think that a lot of people were really hot on busting up TPUSA. Because say what you want about Charlie, I mean, he, you know, was he privately, he was the same publicly. He and his wife didn't do any of that stuff. They were committed.

They were very loving. And now you have all of these examples out there of. I think his only vice was that he tolerated a lot of dumb people in his orbit. For the sake of unity.

Sometimes, for the sake of unity, some people got to go. That's just the truth of it. And it's unfortunate. I see a lot of people. There are a lot of people that follow these people that I'm referencing.

I'm not going to give them a ton of attention. I don't want people to seek them out. I think they're bad examples. Most trad people, unless it's your job, they're not on social media flexing. Not everybody has to be an influencer.

People spend way too much time on social media. trying to brag about a life that they're curating and not living.

So it's in, by the way, the odds of Jesus coming before 2027 doubled overnight, came. It did? Yeah, it did. Holly market. Yup.

Just saying. I don't really, I don't gamble, but I think it's a funny headline. Like, if I was to bet $100, there's a wagering pool that's called Will Jesus Christ Return Before 2027. Guess how many, how much in bets? How much?

$900,000. Get out of here. Totally serious. What? Yes.

like more than the UFO one. What if he comes back and then flips your table? Oh, that's the first table, digitally speaking, that he's going to flip. I think so. Whoa.

I want to watch that with some popcorn. Yeah, I don't gamble, but I'm. I just, that's interesting. It's not going to happen. I mean, if you talk about it and you're like, it's going to happen right now, it's not going to happen.

Well, none of us know. The Bible says none of us know. We don't know.

So, if you're like, it's going to be right now, it's not going to happen right now. You can't predict it. He's going to come like a thief in the night. Just saying, but they said the odds of the second coming have risen.

So it's probably over that because this was just excuse me, this was. Oh, this was early. This was this morning.

So, yeah, it's probably even more than that now. Just saying. Um, hmm.

Now coming up, we're going to talk about yoga. And Karen's. What? An ice. Mm.

No, not like crunchy water. Like Immigration and customs enforcement. Rewards programs are a lot like pop culture.

It's time for Florida man. This is why you don't play with fire. Like ever, it's not a toy. I can't believe I have to say this. A Florida man, well, Florida teens played with fire, friend got burnt.

Now there's a felony charge. A 17-year-old set his friend on fire.

Now he's arrested and faces felony-aggravated battery. Thank you. Dudes. It's dudes. Yes, of course, they're boys.

Bradley Ming faces a felony charge. He got set his friend on fire. Marion County Sheriff said that he deliberately poured gas on the teen and then ignited it. That'll do it. That'll do it.

And he got severe burns, victims in the hospital, second degree burns. Uh the uh There was a video that showed exactly what happened. He poured gasoline, created a flammable trail leading right to the victim. And then flames, you know, the guy tried to jump into a lake. He got treatment for his injuries.

They tried to downplay what happened.

So he's in jail without Bond. Don't be stupid. That sounds like bullying and not something a friend would do. being. A Karen causes a scene because somebody wouldn't move their cart It's described as Oh, progressive boomers be progressive boomerin.

So a Florida man got into a fight with a Karen because she demanded that he move his cart. The video began with the staff being called over. The woman said she wanted the man to move his card. He refused. He said she was minding.

So they're in an aisle. This is the stupidest, pettiest thing I've ever seen. Stop being horrible meat sacks. Stop it.

So she's got her cart. He I don't know what She said she had asked him to step aside. The man said the woman was rude. She just demanded that he move. and didn't say excuse me.

All of this is so dumb. And they went back and forth. And every woman clearly is the aggressor, but it's like: if you just want to get it over with, get out of the way. Or if you have the time to mess around, then don't, which apparently this guy had all the time in the world, so he didn't move. I don't know.

I ah, it does bother me. I will say does it bother you if someone tries to get by you and they don't say, excuse me? Uh not so much. I don't really care too much about that. It doesn't bother me.

I just don't like it when people stand there, like if I'm looking at something in the aisle. And I'm supposed to guess what's going on in their mind because I'm not paying attention to them. I'm like looking at something and they stand there. Right.

And They I don't know. It's like use your words. You know what I'm saying? I don't know. Let's see.

I got to do this one because I don't even know. I don't understand this headline, actually. This headline Uh Okay, there's a lot here. Florida woman. Apparently got arrested Because of her behavior at the Walmart self-checkout, where she was pretending to be a police officer.

And then she had her taser out and ready. And then an elderly woman against an elderly woman in a motorized scooter or something. And then there were racist remarks. I don't know. This lady though is crazy and I just need everyone to see her mugshot.

Because her mug shot is something else. 75-year-old Florida woman, she. Had a taser and claimed to be a cop. As she intervened in a Walmart self-checkout fight to defend, okay, she's defending a senior in a scooter. Yeah.

But the witnesses say the senior the scooter senior was making racist remarks to the other customer. I don't even know. This is so stupid. I can't believe this. And then At one point, she pulled out a black taser from her purse, pointed it at the victim and the m and the mother.

And said, stop, I'm a police officer. She was not, in fact, a police officer. And there's surveillance footage of all of it and she got in trouble for it.

So she actually, because she displayed a weapon, technically, she got charges of aggravated assault with intent to commit a felony and impersonated a law enforcement officer. She was booked in Brower County. And uh She was released. Oh my gosh, just all of these stories Are examples of what happens when you don't just go on living in your life and you just don't get around it. You know what I mean?

Just don't. I can't, man. And if you're in a scooter, you have no business getting involved in a fight with nobody else.

Okay, just don't right there. Just stop it right there. Let's see. Oh, gross. A Florida man is bringing his invasive lizards, the iguanas, to a pizzeria.

It's a big thing down there.

Now they're having iguana pizza. Oh boy. I will pass on that one. I heard it's like the chicken of the trees. I get what you're saying.

Just going to pass on that one. Third hour on the way. Peter Schweitzer will join us later, too. Stick with us. Rewards programs are a lot like pop culture.

Greetings and salutations, Radioland. And digital viewers, Dana Lash with you. Top of the third hour. We've got Peter Spicer who's going to be joining us later on. I just watched.

The dumbest Video I've seen all year. We're only into February. I don't like it. I know Steve is like, do not play. I'm not going to play it because it needs censored so bad.

Can we can I can we like run just like run the video in the background or like side by side without playing it because yeah, without any audio broads can they can't get a word out without dropping an F-bomb. Yeah, and then you can kind of do play-by-play.

So I hate organized exercise because it's gay and lame. And I don't do yoga, and I don't want to be in a room with a bunch of broads and leggings. I just want weight training and like leave me alone, right?

So This is like my worst nightmare. It's a yoga class and it's a bunch of Karens. And they're mad because someone at the yoga class place took down an ant what they took down a a an anti-ice sign. It is Core Power Yoga. And they were accused by all these barefooted Karens.

I'm gonna get really mean in this segment, so I'm warning you. for being complicit in ICE raids. All these women with their yoga mats were berating the staffers for being silent. And they were saying, let's hear it, Delaney. Delaney, I guess, is the blonde at the desk, loud and proud.

You want to say it, let's say it. And we can blank and get a yoga studio someplace else.

Okay, go. I would have had them all trespassed, by the way. And so Customers heard through reportedly studio gossip. That the corporate team took down an anti-ICE sign.

So, Core Power said the meltdown was aggressive and profane, and they don't support violent ICE raids, and blah, blah, blah. And you have all of these women who were standing there in leggings. In a retail part of the core power yoga place, yelling at these two women who had nothing to do. with the store's policy. on ice signage.

And I'm really trying so hard to be nice, guys. Everything I am, I am really trying hard. I wasn't during break. And all of these women are standing around, and this one woman's like, tell us what it is so I can show my viewers. Yes, Karen, you're tens of viewers.

I can, she's like, the woman is so upset, like, she's out of breath. Because she's also out of shape, and she thinks that she can just go and stretch and do yoga, and that's going to do it. Yoga is the sport for bored, lazy broads who don't want to go get a real job. And so they just want to go to yoga and act like they're working out. They don't really want to work out.

They want to spend their afternoons doing stuff like this and walking around in leggings. There's also a dude here. There's a dude here at some point. This video is going to continue. If there's a dude, Kane, a dude in leggings.

Wait, they make them? No, they don't make them for men. I mean, if they do, I would rather see all these women protest that place.

So, this one woman that you're watching, because they're cussing every other word. She's like, I'm a nurse, and I'm blah, blah, blah, and baby, blah, blah, blah, baby. And all these, they're doing the finger snaps, and I just want to break their hands. And then you can see the guy in the leggings. Who's like, I'm just here, I just want to be part of the energy.

He wants just to be part of the vibe and he's standing over with his leggings. Just The absolute entitlement. It is, they're trying so hard to prove that they care about something, but they actually don't know enough about the issue. If you really care about an issue, Aren't you knowledgeable about said issue? Typically.

No, they just want to be seen. As this is all about clicks, this is all about. uh optics for them. This is my hell right here. What you're looking at is my version of hell.

This is hell. All of these annoying broads and a man in leggings, they're all barefoot. Oh. Oh. And they're in the retail part of the store.

and they're mad over a yoga company. This is entitlement. personified. I don't b I didn't believe in white privilege and then I saw this video. And I'm like, oh, that's what it is.

Okay, I see it. It's just ridiculous. I would have absolutely had them. And they're sitting here. You're harassing minimum wage staff.

I mean, none of these women have anywhere else that they have to be.

Someone's taking care of their kids or their kids are in school.

So someone's taking care of their kids. They have nowhere else to be and nothing else to do.

So they're trying to justify their empty lives by berating minimum wage workers at a yoga studio. I just I mean, I says I have no words. No words.

So, this all started on the rumor that somebody in the corporate office took down a sign that was anti-ice, and that's how this all started.

So it wasn't any action. Against some other people. It was the rumor that a sign was removed. Yes. Good God Almighty.

Yep. A rumor That Yeah, that's exactly what this was.

Okay. It reminds me of 1984. It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the party the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers. of unorthodoxy. Knows are unorthodoxy.

That's accurate. But the guy, can I just real quickly and I'm going to move on? The guy in leggings. Mm. Really quick.

Men, what would induce you ever to be in leggings? Nothing is right, I know, yes. Halloween? Yeah. And they don't even know, and as you pointed out, Lorraine reminded, they don't even know whether a sign was taken down, they just heard one was taken down.

Bro. All the hens come into the hen yard. And you got a rooster there in leggings. That's all these women are.

So, literally, to put it in context, it's like if. Waffle House took down a sign about pancakes. Or took down some sign about waffle. All of a sudden, they're not anti-waffle. I just heard about it.

Yeah, you just heard about it. All of a sudden, that means they're anti-pancake or anti-waffle. I just want to be like Broads. Shut up and do your yoga on your nasty little mats. You have nothing else going on in your lives.

Or get out. Don't care. Get out. Business owners need to have a little bit of pride in running their business. There's no way I would tolerate this.

I'd be grabbing these broads by their braids and slinging them out to the sidewalk. That's it. Fuck! Yeah, trespassed, you get trespassed. Gross.

You get trespassed. And that dude with leggings, hella gets trespassed. Get out. Yeah, go take that guy first, for real. Oh my gosh.

Oh, wait, there's war. One slap chop, a second slap chop. It's just a that is my hell, though.

So Yeah. This diner in the Midwest. Kicked off all kinds of chaos because they put up a sign.

So apparently, this place. It is the Golden Nest Pancake and Cafe in Wawatosa, Wisconsin. They put up a sign that says, please do not enter if you smell of marijuana. Gold Nest Pancake and Cafe is a family restaurant, and this is an appealing way guests are dining. Thank you.

Wayne Doney, the general manager, said that the smell was apparently offensive to customers, and they got a lot of complaints about it. And they said that there were people who were coming in smelling like pot, and a lot of people didn't like it. And so now everyone's like they're mad. They're mad.

Someone's like, you can't exclude somebody for smelling like marijuana, just like you can't for having body odor. Yeah, you can. A business can do whatever they want, Yolanda. They can do whatever they want. You smell like backside.

Get out. Okay. Get out! Totally legal. And by the way, I would add on to that.

If you smell like a Heineken, you also have to go because Heineken and A-double snakes and marijuana all smell the same. It all smells like the same side, different sides of the same dirty foot. It's disgusting. Heineken smells like actual past gas. I banned it in my home.

It's not allowed. I will not sit at a table with somebody drinking it. It is disgusting. It's a fart in a glass. It's so gross.

You know it. And someone's like, well, what about cigarettes? Because it's not the same. I think the cigarette smells gross. But does it smell like stinky backside?

Not the way marijuana does. Just saying, I don't know what some of these people are smoking some days. I had hippie members of my family that were older, boomer hippies. And they smoked marijuana and I never noticed it because I never smelled it. But I don't know what strain some be smoking today because some of it is just nasty.

Nasty. Don't do the nasty stuff. Stay away from it if it's nasty. Oh man, because I don't want you sitting by me. Would you want your situation?

You wouldn't want that either. Would you want to smell cane? Do you want to smell butt while you're sitting down having some pancakes? No. No, you don't.

No, sir, you don't. You can answer that one pretty easily.

So people are mad. And they're trying to say that it was racist. And they're like, no, this literally applies to anybody. Just get over yourselves. get over yourselves.

Oh my gosh. I just and someone said, I think it's intentional. Because they should have said no smelling of smoke. It's not about just smoke. Cynthia, it's not just about smoke.

It is about what it smells like. Good night.

Like, what is don't get too loud because you're gonna get the what's gonna happen is. If the yoga women feel like their problem is solved, they're going to hot foot it over to this cafe in Wisconsin and start doing this stuff there. Yeah. Someone was like, I feel like it I I just feel like like they should have just said all smoke. No, no, there's a big difference.

Big difference.

So, I don't know. And the restaurant's like, yeah, well, it's doubled our sales, and we're not taking down the sign. Right.

Good for them. their business, their rules. It's very, very easy. Very easy. And I have one more.

I just have some goofy stuff right here to get rid of. I don't even know what this is. Oh gosh. Here we go. Here we go.

Someone All the internet I saw this trending yesterday.

So apparently At George Washington University.

Someone got a Master's degree for a thesis on Quote Two spirit dec Decolonial Change Making on Instagram With a sample size of Three people. The main research question is How is Instagram used by two spirit decolonial activists. Yeah. Oh yeah. Listen, listen.

This study uses discourse analysis and grounded theory to understand the decolonial Instagram posts of three Two-Spirit indigenous activists. Bobby Sanchez. Charlie Scott. and Cleopatra Tatabelle, This study aims to answer how is Instagram used by these two spirit decolonial activists?

Someone got a master's degree from this. Oh. This the professor who signed off on it has a mullet. Ivy Ken, the department, I think it's a dude, the department chair and associate professor of sociology and women's gender and sexuality studies. The student now works with experts, expert lobbyists leading research.

Universities across the U.S. Oh my gosh. So How many spirits are there? This is like a big giant. ACT question.

If someone is two-spirited and someone is three-spirited, And they get on a train that's going 60 miles per hour. And it's the same body, so there's some pseudo-replication. How many spirits in total are in one person? That sounds like possession. you possessed.

That's not, you're not too spirit. That's possession. We got more on the way. We got headlines coming up as we don't even know what. I can't believe people.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss, it's time for Dana's Quick Five.

So, do you guys remember the Chaz Chop in Seattle? Remember that whole. Like, well, they had a warlord, SoundCloud Warlord, and all this stuff.

So, apparently, remember the teenager that was killed there as well. And they actually were trying to even stop cops from getting up there and investigating.

So they were found liable. By a jury, the city of botching its emergency response to the still, by the way, unsolved shooting death of 16-year-old Antonio Mays Jr. inside of the chop zone. And Which I find incredibly ironic. It was all because of George Floyd and they killed a black teenager.

And no one ever solved it.

So they had 12 days of deliberations, 12-person jury, and yeah, they were awarded $26 million. The parents were. $26 million, and the son state got another $4 million. The father sued in 23 said that they allowed lawlessness to reign here. That's wild.

And that's a very interesting precedent that this establishes. Let's see, the penguin plunge. I mean what that is. You just jump in cold water. That was in Lake Champlain in Vermont.

It was postponed because of the cold, which. Come on. It's called the penguin plunge. Isn't that kind of the whole point? But they said that it went into below zero wind chill, so they decided to move the event to March.

I just feel like that makes it even, you know, more hardcore. Plunge at Penguin, man. Get in there. Let's see. Oh, $5,000 reward.

Explosive devices were stolen from Fort Leonardwood. Oh, okay. and they could get a reward up to $5,000. If they that's kind of crazy.

So they somebody stole an explosive device. Pretty big one, demolition-shaped charge. What is demolition shaped? That's funny. They so they're looking for it.

They have an award. Long story short, all the pop-up ads on KCRG, whatever TV, your ridiculous website is killing your killing everybody's soul. Also, we've got. A Philadelphia Art Museum reverses a controversial rebrand and decides to become the Philadelphia Museum of Art again. How bad was the rebrand?

I put it in that first step. Yeah, it was pretty bad. P It was supposed they were going to be P-H-Art. Yeah, P-H-A.

Sound that out real quick? I think that's the F sound that P-H makes. That's right. That's right. Yeah, that seemed like a good idea that they changed that.

No one read that before, though. They didn't put that together before. They spent all the money on it. Peter Schweizer, whose new book, The Invisible Coup, jumps into birthright citizenship. He joins us next.

There are a couple of other tracks we could play. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. We're at the bottom of this third hour. You might remember a couple of weeks ago us relating this story to you.

This is, it was from the Wall Street Journal. And I realized that they were also kind of, they were cribbing from this book, whose author we're going to talk to in just a minute. That it was getting into the story of this billionaire Chinese executive, Xu Bo. who has fathered over a hundred kids. And remember, they busted this big mansion in California, and this Chinese couple were living there, and they had a million kids, and all these surrogate mothers that they worked with.

And it is one of the craziest stories I think that I've ever read. And apparently, he was seeking parental rights. I'm looking at notes here to at least four other unborn children. And he's got hundreds of kids. And he is apparently also not the only Chinese national in the United States doing this.

And he's not the only entity. I say entity because there are apparently a ton of these companies that are specializing in multiple surrogate births by Chinese national parents. They raise the kids in China, and then the kids come back to the United States to vote. We are on the precipice of. an entire generation Of these kids born here as anchor babies in the United States, gone back to China, educated by the CCP, and then coming back to the United States to vote.

This is not even, this is beyond birth tourism. This is one of the things that is. Highlighted In this new book that you need to read, it is The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon. And it gets into not just the exploitation of birthright citizenship by China. but also the number of pilots trained every year here in the United States.

The ballot flood. There is so many different fronts to this battle. And it is all highlighted by Peter Schweizer, who you can find on X. He's also president of Government Accountability Institute. And congrats, because the book is the number one New York Times bestseller.

Hard to do for a book of that nature from someone of your political persuasion.

So congratulations.

Well, thank you, Dana. It's great to be on with you. Thanks for having me. This is disturbing because I know this is basically asymmetrical warfare. And I don't, it sounds fantastical.

It sounds. Almost too big for the average everyday people who are trying to just slog through life and pay their bills and raise their families for them to even comprehend. But it's the one thing, and I think you actually highlighted this: that we are right on the cusp of a whole generation of this, I can't even call it birth tourism, but this asymmetrical warfare. These people coming to the United States and voting. Talk to me a little bit about this because this just is just one example.

There are a lot more billionaires like this guy and a lot more companies that are doing this, and this is just one front of this. Yeah, Dana, it almost sounds like to the plot to a bad sci-fi movie, right? But here's what happened. In 2011, the Chinese Communist Party in the People's Daily, their big newspaper, started advertising to people in articles that you could bring your children to the United States, give birth, they'd become U.S. citizens, and they would fly back to China and you could raise them in China.

Imagine the irony of the CCP instructing its own people on so-called constitutional right to birthright citizenship in the United States. And the big question, of course, is why would they want their own people to do this? Why would they want their own people to get U.S. citizenship for their children?

So that's kind of where this all started like 13 or 14 years ago. And the problem is, Dana, our federal government has zero, zero idea how many people have done this because we don't track this information. You get a birth certificate in the United States. It does not list the nationality of the parents. But the Chinese government, And Chinese research firms have looked into this industry, and the numbers they give are eye-popping.

They estimate that over the last 13 years, roughly every single year on average, 100,000. Chinese babies have been born in the United States that are being taken back to China where they will be raised. And they're all U.S. citizens, according to this interpretation of birthright citizenship, which means when they turn 18, even though they've been raised in China, that's where they live their whole life. They can actually vote in U.S.

elections. They can donate to campaigns. This tide is going to start cresting in 2030, and we better be ready for it. Oh, my gosh. And they're raised and educated by the CCP.

They are modeled in the image of the perfect Chinese communist citizen and then sent to the United States to enact that ideology and to further push that ideology here. And sadly, I mean, we're seeing it. We're seeing it at places like New York and California, Cook County, Illinois. That we have no idea. I mean, you have to register a drone in the United States for just recreation, but we don't even have any idea of this.

That's just insane. Yeah, it's completely unregulated. And look, when you look at the company websites in China that offer these services, because again, this is widely advertised in China. If the government didn't want this, they would shut that down. They list their former clients.

The former clients are military officers, intelligence officers, people with the Ministry of Propaganda. These are not political dissidents. These are the Chinese elite. And there's the added problem that you talked about of surrogacy. This takes it one step further where you get this Chinese billionaire who donates his sperm, pays an American woman, say, $60,000 to carry his child.

That child is born. That child is then brought back to China where it's raised by the father. That child is going to have U.S. citizenship because it was born here, and the mother, the biological mother, is American. We don't have numbers on that.

You have these cases that you talked about, but we looked and found just in Southern California, 107 Chinese-owned. surrogacy companies that are advertising these services in China. For the Chinese elite.

So that's an additional layer of this problem that we have, of what we're calling the Manchurian generation, right? The Manchurian candidate movie. This is a Manchurian generation that is coming forward to effectively infiltrate the United States. And we have, and we are, I mean, they're playing the long game, and we're only finding out right as it's coming to fruition, is what it sounds like. Yeah, yeah, which unfortunately is kind of typical for us.

They think very long-term, very strategic. This is weaponized immigration. They're taking advantage of American generosity and they're pivoting and using it as a weapon aimed directly at us. Which has gotten into, and for those joining us, we're talking with Peter Sweiser, whose new book is, I mean, crazy, The Invisible Coup. And we're talking about some of the aspects that he's written about.

Because I know POTUS, he signed, this was, you know, back in January, he signed an order to end birthright citizenship. And now you have like 20 some odd lawsuits against that.

So that's going to be tied up in litigation for who knows how long, for the unforeseeable future, I guess we could say.

So this is going to continue. We're going into midterms right as all of these people are gearing up to vote.

Now, in addition to that, you also have. Thousands of these pilots that are trained here every single year. You just, I have no idea why we are allowing the United States pilots from our greatest geopolitical foe. To come to the United States and train. This is not like sharing.

This isn't diplomacy. This is sepoku. Talk to me about this because why are we doing this? We wouldn't do this back in World War II with Germans and Japanese. Yeah, yeah, no, I was laughing because, again, it seems so absurd.

So, China has a pilot problem. They need 5,000 pilots a year, military and civilian. They can only train about 1,250 because of restricted airspace and other factors.

So, what they've done is they've gone to flight schools in the United States. They've purchased flight schools, but what they do is they bring the students here. The government pays the $90,000 a year tuition, and the pilots are trained here. And our belief is just based on one school that operates out of Merced, California, we're looking at thousands of pilots a year being trained in the United States. And what happens is they get basic flight training, they go back to China, and then the best pilots will get advanced military training.

Now, When 9-11 happened, we all remember the horror of that day. We all remember the fact that you had these terrorists that went to flight schools, didn't want to learn how to land. After that happened, Dano, we introduced a law that restricted flight schools, said you can't take people from terror-sponsoring regions and areas. It does not include Chinese. It does not include adversaries of the United States.

So we are literally training pilots that will be, God forbid, squaring off against our pilots in some future conflict. That's something that I think the Trump administration needs to deal with directly and immediately, whether it's by changing that law or perhaps by executive order. You noted that this is even happening in Phoenix, Arizona, a company called AeroGuard that are training hundreds of pilots. And you write in the book, they signed this agreement. With these hundreds of cadet pilots, Phoenix, Arizona, of all places.

And that, you know, there's people that are congressional members that are aware of this, that have to approve this, congressional members, I mean, people who should be looking out for this. That's what they're tasked to do. We give them this authority through the investment of our vote. And now we have this. I mean, I don't even they I really do think the administration, I agree with you, they need to do something about this quick.

But then again, you know, lawsuits, litigation, just like with everything else, it gets tied up. I don't know the end run around that. Yeah, no, I mean, look, that's the challenge. You know, I met with the president before the book came out in the Oval Office for about 50 minutes. The Treasury Secretary Besant was there.

Marco Ruby was there. Went through in detail the information involving China, also the information regarding Mexico and the Muslim Brotherhood that's also in the book. They were very engaged, very surprised, asked a lot of questions. There has been some follow-up, similarly on Capitol Hill.

So I am expecting we are going to see some action on this. And I'm going to be testifying, I think it's on March 10th before the Senate Judiciary Committee on the Chinese industrial-scale exploitation of birthright citizenship.

So we are seeing movement, which is good. I am grateful for that because, I mean, we've got this, you know, we have the H-1B visas, we have Islamism, and then, of course, you also have through Mexican consulates running these shadow campaigns that you've talked about in your book to sway U.S. elections. You know, I mean, you uncover and get into so much in this time. Tell me about this because we kind of know that the Mexican government's been trying to influence our elections.

I mean, we know this, but the tactics that they're using are a little bit more sophisticated now than they were, you know, 20, 30 years ago. But this is what's been happening. They've been staging mass protests in the United States. Talk to us about this because they're behind this. Yeah, exactly.

I mean, there's a couple of layers of this. The one thing that surprises most people, even when I talk to top decision makers, is Mexico has erected a system in the United States where there are senators and members of their Congress. that live inside the United States. They serve in their government. They live in the United States and they represent Mexicans living in our country.

So it's a massive intrusion into our sovereignty. And these elected officials, they're introducing legislation in the Mexican legislature about making California a state of Mexico. But they're also engaged in very specific anti-Trump actions and civil protests. They were neck deep involved in the Los Angeles riots in 2025. There's one of these congressmen who lives in Ontario, California.

His name's Alejandro Robles. In 2025, he was going across the country, meeting with immigrant groups, meeting with Antifa groups, and saying that he was, quote, organizing the militancy against Donald Trump.

So these are Mexican government officials doing that. That's the first layer. The second layer are these diplomatic outposts, right? They have these consulates.

Now, Great Britain and China have six and seven consulates in the United States. Mexico has 53. And these consulates are engaged also in supporting these protests. I'll note that there is a Mexican consulate in St. Paul, Minnesota, the Twin Cities, that has been involved with groups neck deep in the anti-ICE protests there.

But they've also gotten involved in our politics, Dana. We got a hold of a transcript of a meeting that occurred in May of 2024. presidential election year in the Oklahoma City, Oklahoma consulate. They brought together diplomats from Los Angeles to Orlando and everybody in between from those consulates. They brought in senior officials from Mexico City.

They were addressed by the foreign minister of Mexico via video. The one other group that was at this meeting, Democratic Party political activists. And according to the transcripts, the conversation included statements like, we turned California from red to blue. We turned Arizona from red to blue. How do we turn other states from red to blue so we can stop Donald Trump?

This is not what. diplomats are supposed to be doing. And one of the things that I have been recommending decision makers do is look at closing a lot of these consulates. There is no reason we should be allowing foreign governments to try to manipulate our elections and steer elections to the results that they want that serve their interests. Amen to that.

Like Marco Rubio when he has has to explain that video on Sunday, Marco Rubio at the Olympics, Marco Rubio you know, he's got to be POTUS's new social media head. Mark it's just hysterical. I love the internet sometimes.

Sometimes I love it, sometimes I hate it, but you know, there it is. Interesting. I also saw this video where a former Washington Post, the former editor Marty Barron, blamed all the job cuts on all their. Uh they they did endorse Kamala, they funded a a Melania. Documentary.

So it's anything that has to do with positivity towards Trump. That's why they, that's what he blamed it for. You can't with these people. I can't. It's this is idiotic.

In the meantime, today in Stupidity King. All right, cut seven, Juan. This is Democrat Jamie Raskin.

They do not like the Save Act because it would eventually, I mean, it essentially would prevent cheating in elections.

So that's why Democrats don't like it. But this is what Jamie Raskin had to say about it. What's wrong with the SAVE Act? What's wrong with it is that it might violate the 19th Amendment, which gives women the right to vote, because you've got to show that all of your different IDs match.

So if you're a woman who's gotten married and you've changed your name to your husband, has marriage been a thing? How long has marriage been a thing? For forever. In the United States. Yeah.

Stop touting out marriage as the reason why you're against the SAVE Act. Yeah, that is goofy. Folks, find us Facebook, YouTube, like and subscribe. Also, the podcast. Have a great rest of your week.
