Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, they go perfectly with music. Podcasts, and welcome back to the show. Even nature sounds. Oh, and the thing where someone crinkles tissue and whispers at you. Hello.
Look, I'm not here to judge what you listen to. I'm here to judge you for not eating Reese's while you listen to it. Reese's. Ashley, go back to the nature sounds. Nice.
Yeah, that's really nice. I let's go ahead and get into it. This is going to be audio soundbite. Oh, let me find it. 11 million thousand.
It's uh 18,000, please. Tucker Carlson talking about Mark Levin and witchcraft. Go ahead. People like Levin, whom I'm not attacking, I feel sorry for because he's clearly living in hell. But what they're trying to do is a species of witchcraft.
And it's really simple: you repeat something until it becomes true. You speak mm-hmm. You create truth by speaking. In the beginning was the word, right? There is a there's a holy power There's a supernatural power in words describing things is different from simply doing them and if you you can talk Reality into being This is what an incantation is This is what a spell is It's not like spooky like crazy stuff.
It's the lived reality of every person say it and it becomes true and that's exactly what they're trying to do shills like Pompeo are getting paid from who knows how many different groups to lie to you and coming across who's paying you and your drunk ass brother who apparently just flies around the world with you Who's paying you? Big question. Oh, is it the Alp? Pouch thing, the foreign-made tobacco. It's not even American tobacco for crying out loud.
It's like Indian tobacco. foreign made tobacco. and they have to ship it over here. I'm sure it's treated with all kinds of chemicals and pesticides and all this other stuff, too. First off, Look.
Mark Levin is is a good guy. I've always gotten along with Mark Levin. To say that someone's using witchcraft Because they simply have an opinion. is I don't know, my friend David Limbaugh, whose brother created this industry. said that this has got to be parody even for him.
He's like, I just can't and he just said L O L's. Wild.
So he's now What is the world? Oh, he's using his supernatural power in witchcraft. It's a species of witchcraft. You repeat something until it becomes true.
So like what you do. Then You just repeat the same nonsense on your Podcast, and you want people to accept it as being truth. He's had on some pretty crazy people. lately as well. you want to talk about repeating things that Until they're make they become true.
You say you think he's just reading a prompter? I mean There seems to be a lot of messaging that is a 180 position from where he used to be just literally a year or two ago. It's not even that long ago.
So my guess is you gotta be paid for a 180 position like that. To switch your position. I hope he got paid. He's had on, like, for instance, Douglas McGregor. Who this guy has been wrong about legit everything that you could possibly be wrong about.
Oh my gosh. He was uh he's a retired colonel. He was in the Army. He was involved in Gulf War. And he has had some of the craziest.
He's been wrong about so many things. Yeah, a friend of mine who writes at Red State had a very big, deep dive on all. I have a couple of things here, but he has a huge, comprehensive list. of all of the things that this guy has been wrong on. About How about Russia and Ukraine, about China and Russia?
About, and he goes on Matt Gaetz's show all the time. I'll tell you, Matt Gaetz, the reason Matt Gaetz left Congress is because he would not have been able to pass a confirmation hearing to be attorney general. This is a fact. No one will tell you this, but I will, because I don't give a rat's ass about being invited to cocktail parties. There's a lot of stuff in this guy's closet.
And the reason that he dropped out and he didn't stay in the House and he left the uh he he stopped trying to go for AG is because he was not going to pass the confirmation hearing to become Attorney General. The ethics investigation into him was legit. It's why he got mad at Kevin McCarthy. He wanted Kevin McCarthy to use his seniority to make it go away. Matt Gates was accused of flying around with underage girls.
Now One of the reasons that they didn't put him in jail, apparently, from the stuff that I've read that's been publicly reported. is that There's the Did he know that they were underage? Did he know that they were? And that's kind of what it all hinges on, but he would not have passed a confirmation hearing. That was never going to happen.
And It wasn't until the I mean, Trump had to get involved. Trump had to tell him back channel, this is not happening, you need to get out. But he got Matt Gates got really mad at Kevin McCarthy because he expected Kevin McCarthy. Two, use his seniority and make this ethics investigation go away. And they wouldn't.
It wasn't going to happen. Even Marjorie Taylor Greene was in on the investigation.
So that tells you something.
So he ended up, that's why he left the house because once he was out from underneath house oversight, they couldn't get him.
So that's why I didn't go back into the house, and that's why I dropped out of AG.
Now he does this crap podcast because everybody thinks that they can go talk. But that's the truth of the story with him.
So he has this guy on. They can't get they notice all these people. They have the same guests, they operate in the same circles, they promote the same thing. But this Douglas McGregor guy has been wrong so many times. Like, I mean, oh my gosh, all this stuff with Ukraine and Russia.
I mean, I could go on and on and on. There's a very long thread here. You know, like, for instance, oh, Israel is going to be at war with Egypt. He was saying that uh uh January 2024. He was saying that they were going to be at war with Egypt in January 24.
I'm not even kidding you. He tweeted it, it's still up. He said that the Venezuelan war is going to cost Trump his presidency. He goes on a Judge Napolitano show. There's a huge report that came out.
I know Judge Napolitano. I mean, not well, but I know we know who the other one is. But there's a huge report that came out on him about the Russian funding he's getting. and the questionable direction of his content. Here's something you guys need to watch.
There's a downside with legacy. There's a downside. with legacy press in leaving it. Legacy Press is compromised. But don't think that just because someone's independent or that they're doing a podcast that they cannot be.
In fact, in some instances, it's even easier. Legacy Press did itself no favors. They're compromised by ideology. The networks are run by hardcore zealots who you have to stick to a certain ideology, or you're not going to get airtime, or you're not going to get hired, or you're not going to get work, or you'll get fired. But independent and podcast, they don't have to disclose to you who's paying them.
They don't have to tell you. It's not regulated like it is with airwaves.
So, somebody could be cashing fat Qatari checks or fat Russian checks, and there's paperwork out there, receipts showing that it's happening, and they don't have to tell you a damn thing. That's the difference.
So, it is not any different than Legacy Press. It is a new legacy press. And the people who are bitching about it the most were eager to become it. Chapter is a great partner for the program. They do a lot of, they help a lot of people.
Chapter does. I mean, they basically, I mean, when it comes to Medicare, you're always told: just trust the system, just do this. It's easy, just fill it out, whatever. And you go to some government site, or you talk to some like random insurance agent, and then. You know, you find out your plan doesn't actually cover what you need.
That's kind of a bummer. Medicare, it's actually confusing on purpose. And that confusion is exactly how people end up in the wrong plan. They overpay, but then yet they're undercovered. And so finding someone truly on your side matters.
Chapter exists to cut through the confusion.
So they don't sell you on a couple of companies. They're the only advisor that compares every Medicare plan nationwide to find what actually fits your doctors and your prescriptions and your budget. It's an honest translator from Medicare. They explain your options in plain English. They help you avoid the plans that are great for insurance companies, but terrible for you, real people.
The people who work with Chapter on average save over $1,000 a year on healthcare costs just because they get into the right plan instead of whatever was pushed at them. It's free to talk to Chapter and under 20 minutes they can review your current coverage, walk you through your choices if you're about to enroll so you know what you're picking and why.
So whether or not you're on Medicare already or you're getting close, they'll answer your questions. They'll explain the enrollment. And they'll help you feel confident instead of overwhelmed. To take control of your Medicare, dial Pound250 on your phone and say Medicare Plan. That's Pound250.
Say the words Medicare Plan to get your options reviewed with chapter. Pound250, the words Medicare Plan. Ah. With the Venmo debit card, a taco in one hand, And ordering a ride in the other means you're stacking your rewards. Nice.

Motive? Um, there is. What was I gonna do? Stop myself? Tune in next time to see if I do it again.
Spoiler. I will. Wow, that had everything. Breases, suspense. Reese's Can I be really honest?
No disrespect intended unless the stupidity is purposeful. The only people who say that we can't clearly define why we did it are not paying attention. They're not paying attention. I don't know how many damn times Marco Rubio has to get in front of a camera and say it, or Trump or anybody else. Did they miss all this stuff?
How the hell am I able to see it and they're not? I see other podcast hosts that ask this, and I'm like, How crappy is your show? That you're actually not paying attention to all the stuff that you should be watching in order to talk about it on air to people. Rubio was pretty clear about it. It has to do with being able to intercept the amount of b of ballistic missiles that they were in production with.
And it was also China helping them manufacture them. They were giving them all the precursors, they were helping with everything. And they wanted to make it to where the United States went into a manufacturing crisis. with the production of interceptors.
So, that we would be focusing all of our efforts and all of our capacity on that point on the globe and ignoring everything that was going on, that China would like to do with Taiwan. Trump wasn't having it. Rubia was very clear. we had a window of time before it got to the point. Where, even if we wanted to take out anything nuclear, we wouldn't be able to because the barrage of missiles that they would have would be so unbelievably, relentlessly devastating, we would not be able.
Because we weren't We don't have the ratio of interceptors to missiles is greatly, there's a disparity there. You can blame some of that on the Biden years and the Obama Biden ears. That's what they're talking about.
So, the people who are like, well, I thought they said their nuclear capacity was destroyed. Who the hell said that we went over there for nukes? Dear heavens Some of these podcasters, I want to shake their pencil necks until their damn chiclet teeth fall out of their overfilled heads. It's so stupid. I'm like, what this is why p podcasts suck.
You have a bunch of dumbasses who like looking at themselves in the camera talking into a microphone. They're not analysts. They're not writers. They have no background in investigation. I got my start literally diving in dumpsters for Appo research.
So I came hard. came up the hard way. But these are people who are like, Well, I want to be an influencer And I'm not good at I'm not good enough to act.
So I guess I'm gonna like talk about politics on Insta and TikTok. Bummer out pouch. I Promo cur peso. Those are the people. These people have no damn idea.
Rubio was very clear. It has to do with the other weaponry, to put in layman's terms, that they were manufacturing. That we were not making enough interceptors to counter. And we would be behind, and we would be on a manufacturing insane blitz to try to catch up. And then we wouldn't have been able to.
They already pieced out. They already put it on a timeline. the production schedule and what that would look like. And we talked about that last week. That's what they're talking about.
So, you wouldn't even be able, they would protect themselves to be able to develop nukes because they would have a first round, they would have a first volley. That's what they were building up to. That's what we're taking out right now. I don't know how in the hell people don't know this. We live in an era of information where this stuff is on the television every damn day.
You can read reams about it online, and you got podcasts to stand. out there. Oh We don't know why. We just don't know why they're doing this. I mean, they haven't even, they haven't actually said why it is we're doing it.
Oh my gosh. They've been clear, Kane. I mean, you know, it's been clear. What am I missing? Not nothing.
It's just truly stunning. It really is stunning to see this. And it's the same group of people that are like, well, we just don't know why. They've been very clear in conveying why it is. And I think it's either people are purposefully stupid or they are just trying to pretend that.
They're just gonna lie to you. And then you've got to really question.
Well why are you lying about this? You got to really question the source of this. Why in the world would they be lying about this? But they've been very clear. And we've been successful.
You know? We've been incredibly successful at this. Their Navy gone. Gone. We have total air supremacy.
We got B2s out there now. Those things are funny. They're actually awesome. They're so cool looking. They look like an open book flying in the sky.
James Lindsay, who we had on yesterday. I don't, words don't hurt feelings, so get over it. But he had this tweet. It's at attention President Trump podcast is enriching retardium at an alarming rate. And if they get enough to make a weapon of mass retardation, they could make even more people even more retarded.
And we need to liberate podcasts to stand from the retard regime. Send smart bombs. It's true. It is absolutely true. That is exactly what they're doing right now.
So don't, I just don't pay attention to these people. We just don't know why we're there. We know damn well why they're there. They're pretending otherwise, they're lying to you about it. For a purpose.
They want you to think. They want again goes back to that multipolarity. They want you to think that the United States is over their skis. These are conservatives, so-called conservatives that are trying to tell you this. Trying to tell you that the administration is over their skis here.
Oh, we're kicking off World War III.
Well, damn, they sound like the left now, don't they? Doesn't Podcastistan?
Sound like the left? They're telling you the same stuff the left's been telling you all these years. Oh no, Trump's going to get us involved in all these wars.
Well, it hasn't yet. This is a response. And so far we got dead mullahs and a strait that's protected. And. What's good?
But they sound just like the left. This is the equivalent Podcast the stand of Mandani sitting down. without Mahmoud Khaliga Khalilgau.
Okay. This is the it's the equivalent of that. They're sitting down with the Iranian regime. selling you their propaganda. You know, I made mention earlier, and I'll talk more about this tomorrow.
Because there's a big old thing that came out about Judge Napolitano and some of his funding and all that stuff. You got to be, guys, I've never been more serious. You've got to be very careful with the stuff that you see online. And some of the stuff that these people are selling you. Remember.
There is no uh requirement to report. Digitally, they don't have to tell you who's paying them. I know some websites out there. that are entirely funded. They don't run on ads.
Very similar to Media Matters. and they are out there banging certain drums. Federalists is actually. Ah, I'm one of them. I've written there.
So and I know the people. You gotta be careful with some of this stuff. Not every, just because it's you have a conservative or you have a Republican does not mean that they don't have interests that actually might not be in line with the Constitution. Taken Russian money, for instance. I see conservatives retweeting RT.
So-called conservatives. These are all podcasts to stand. You know, RT was founded by the Kremlin. is entirely Russian state funded. Still to this day.
The Kremlin decides their content. They they have an actual Party member Government member from the Kremlin that works in RT. They have somebody that oversees standards and practices and content. That's exactly how they operate. You gotta be careful with this stuff.
It has never before been easier to fool people. And because the news cycle's so fast. The moment that you absorb one headline, here's a bunch of others. And you're overwhelmed, aren't you? It's like a fire hose every damn morning.
We know the feeling. We wake up every day. Every night I'm like work until I don't know. At least eight or nine. And then after that, I'm like, I'll try to get off my computer, but then I'm looking at my phone, right?
I'm looking at stories that'll pop up on my phone, sending myself stuff, bookmarking things, stuff like that. And it's like a fire hose every day. But a lot of the stuff that I mark is stuff that I have to refute because I know it's propaganda. We are in really weird times right now where the thing that we created to get away from the legacy press has been compromised by greed. Everything is always compromised.
At some point. See, we're a very interesting show because some people will be like, well, who funds you?
Well, that's the funny thing. You do. Because see, yes, we have a podcast and we do digital. But my show first airs on national airwaves. which means I have a federal obligation to tell you.
Where our funding comes from, and that's our ads. our ads and our sponsors. Because we don't charge a subscription. You know, we love what we do, but we're also not into with charity here.
So it's, you know, capitalism.
So we absolutely have a federal obligation to report.
So that that's we have that oversight that other people do not.
So that's what makes us very different. And even then, even if I didn't have that. I still wouldn't be doing that stuff. I can't tell you how many offers I get of people who want to pay me. money to post things.
thousands of dollars to post stuff on Instagram. or on X. Or on Facebook. Oh, can you repost this? I've had people say, Oh, well, can we whitelist your Facebook?
And what we're going to do is just post content like news stories and that. I know what that means.
Some of it I agree with. In fact, there was one who came to me, said, Yeah, you know, we our interests align. Would love to have you repost this. You get X amount per week for like three tweets a week. It's a lot of money for three tweets a week.
I could replace the carpet in my house. Doing this, two weeks, I could replace the carpet in my entire house. This is but I'm like why though? There is something about The ability to say that you answer to nobody is so unbelievably fulfilling. I don't know, I could not give it up for anything.
Because It, I'm telling you, it allows you to be more ruthless. It allows you to be, I don't have to worry about anybody digging anything up. Cause there ain't none to dig up.
Okay. So I can go even harder. I wouldn't want to lose that. You can't put a price tag on that. Hell, I don't need carpet that bad.
Yeah. You can't put a price on it.
So yeah, we don't we don't do that stuff. But I just I say this because I want you to just be very cautious. Not Every Sheep is a sheep.
Sometimes it's a wolf in sheep's clothing. You got to be careful. And it's easy. I get it because it is like a fire hose. You wake up every day and you have all these headlines, you see all this stuff on social media.
It is overwhelming. I get it. Believe me, if I wasn't such a nerd and didn't do this for a living, I'd be in the same boat. But it's on purpose to keep you constantly confused and constantly distracted. You don't have to know everything about everything.
It's okay to know. a lot about a few things. It's all right. Burn a gun is a it's a it's a great way to diversify. your defense weaponry.
And I say that because You know, sometimes I've told you a million times, you guys know this about me. I always carry, I don't, I have zero issue, none at all whatsoever, you know, giggity, glocketty clock. Of using lethal force to protect myself or somebody else. Here's the thing, though: sometimes your rights are abridged, whether it's local, municipal, private property, whatever it is.
Some, you know, college kids, think about college kids who are old enough to serve overseas, but they can't carry a pistol in defense of their own lives at home.
So, this is where the burner gun comes in. It shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away. They have other models, forget that. The only one you need to look at right now is the Compact Launcher, CL for short, roughly the size of an iPhone. The whole purpose of it is to give you defense, is to defend yourself, is to give you a gap to get to safety.
to be safe. That's what it is. It's highly effective. And here's the other big thing. It doesn't care about gun-free zone signs because it's not a gun.
So, gun-free zone signs don't matter. There's no background check, no waiting period, no fees, none of it. Easy to use, highly effective, no recoil, no waiting period. And it's made right here in the US of A. It's the CL Compact Launcher.
And when you compare it to stun guns, they got one or two rounds, tasers, all that. This is a 15-round shot capacity per cartridge. Visit burna.com/slash Dana. B-Y-R-N-A. It's the Burna CL.
Burna.com/slash Dana. Ready when you are. With the Venmo debit card, a taco in one hand, And ordering a ride in the other means you're stacking your rewards. Nice. Get up to 5% cash back with Venmo Stash on your favorite brands when you pay with your Venmo debit card.

Max $100 cash back per month. Reese's peanut butter cups. They go perfectly with music. Podcasts, and welcome back to the show. Even nature sounds.
Oh, and the thing where someone crinkles tissue and whispers at you. Hello. Look, I I'm not here to judge what you listen to. I'm here to judge you for not eating Reese's while you listen to it. Reese's.
Ashley, go back to the nature sounds. Nice. Yeah, it's really nice. Zurin Mandani. This is pretty wild.
He hosted. An Islamist. at Gracie Mansion for Ramadan. And they shared photos. The guy Mahmoud Khalil.
He is a Hamas sympathizer. And I say he is a Hamas sympathizer. sympathizer because he describes Hamas Verbatum. As Quote we. This is, he has done this several times, in fact.
For instance, cut twenty-nine. This is One that we that's on video. There's several others where he's at different rallies and that, but this is one. Listen. We try armed resistance, which is again legitimate to international law.
He's talking about our armed resistance, which we Talking about Hamas. We. That's insane. He has spoken in defense. of Hamas.
He is one of those who question october seventh as well, which has caught up Americans in this. But they had Mock about a Khalil. and his family to Gracie Mansion. He wrote in a post on Instagram yesterday: quote: Last night as we marked the one-year anniversary of his detention. Rama and I were honored to welcome Mahmoud Noor and their son Dean to Gracie Mansion, to break our fast together.
And it showed them all Right there. In the dining room at Gracie Mansion. And it showed them having a meal. This guy was born in Syria. And remember he Here he's here.
on a green card. But he's been accused of Fraud at that, we mean fraudulently filling it out. He's been accused of falsifying things on his green card. I mean, he's how old is this guy? He's like a grown adult person who is one of those guys who wants to stay in college forever.
They want to be in college when they're thirty years old. No, I'm in grad school, they say. I'm in grad school.
So I I I don't know if where he's going to go. Apparently they were saying that he might go to Algeria. Gets deported because they're having a court battle over his immigration status. He was born in Syria. He was arrested by ICE.
He's one of those guys that encouraged persecuting Jewish students on campuses. He was behind a lot of that stuff. He's one of those types of protesters. And then he wants to exercise the rights of Americans, rights that he didn't earn. rights he contributed nothing towards, rights his family never bled for for, rights no not neither him nor anyone in his family ever fought for.
When you're a visitor to this country, you don't get to just claim rights that are born by Americans who are either born in the United States or went through the respectful legal process, to become permanent residents, to become citizens of this country. You don't get to claim rights that other people fought and bled for. You don't get to claim rights to which you contributed nothing. And so Steve says, he's 31 years old. How damn long are you in grad school at 31?
This is like PCU when Jeremy Piven was losing his hair. And he questionably was 40 looking, and he was still a grad student at PCU. It's the same thing. I mean, how damn long Steve, I want to ask you a question. How long is it too long to be in college still and running around on college campuses?
I don't know, unless you're doing like deep medical like residencies in 20 like when you're 28 that's kind of weird Yeah, see, that's what's like, why is the guy still there? And he studies all this, like, this political stuff. It's just weird. I just think it's weird. I always thought it was weird when anybody, I remember if you were in your mid-20s and you were.
Still on a college campus. I thought it was weird. This guy's 31 years old, running around, just running around just literally like six months ago. running around on college campuses. I'm a grad student.
Oh really, are you?
So he was at Gracie Mansion. That was a message that Zora and Mamdani was sending. Absolutely. And what he said was that, oh, Mahmoud is a New Yorker. He belongs to New York City.
No, he's not. He's a grown-ass Syrian national. Who takes advantage? Of American hospitality, and he's rude and disrespectful and barbaric to his hosts. He's ignorant to his host.
You don't go to someone's house and do this stuff. You don't go to someone's country and do this stuff. I don't go to Syria and knock them around and tell them how to run things. Do I know? And would it even be allowed?
No. It wouldn't.
So he's he's Shown up at all of these rallies.
Some of the rallies that he's attended are strictly anti-Israeli. It's not, oh, I have an issue with Netanyahu, which is what some of the woke Rikers love to say, even though they can't tell you what he does. No, he it's like strictly like burn the Jews kind of stuff. That's the stuff he goes to. He uh Well he gave an interview to Al Jazeera, which is owned by Qatar, by the way.
And he was talking about an As al-Sharif, who is a Hamas terrorist, who was killed in a missile strike last August. And he recited Al-Sharif's final words. And was lionizing him from the microphone. This is the type of stuff we're talking about. Can you imagine?
I remember 9-11 when it happened. I was twenty I think I was 21 turning 22. I was turning 22 that month. Because it happened right before my birthday, days after my mom's birthday. And I remember I was 21 years old, and I was looking, I was looking at this.
on the news and I could not believe. And I thought, and remember how united everybody was? Kane, did you think all those years ago you were looking at the video of the smoking skyline? Did you think? Here we are.
25 years later And you're having a guy who is literally not an exaggeration, a Hamas sympathizer, dining at Gracie Mansion. Speechless about it. Speechless. Especially if I lived there. If I was living there, I'd have even, I'd think I'd have more fervor in my response.
They lit up. for part of Ramadan, the World Trade Center, the Memorial in Green. Which is the color of the Islamic Republic. On Ramadan. This week.
Is that not insane? Or last week? Into last week. Is that not uncrazy? Again, 25 years later, did you think that you'd see that?
Is that not that's bizarre? It is just wild to see this. And that's what, and they were happy there because, you know, they know there's no accountability. Just like his wife, liking all of these post calling October 7th basically a hoax. All of it.
Now the bomb attack, the way that the media Has been writing about this as one of the craziest things I have ever seen, and it is absolutely inexcusable. CNN, oh my gosh, they had a post. That they had Published. And they ended up taking it down. The article is still there, but this is how they this is they took the post down.
This is what it said, quote, Two Pennsylvania teenagers crossed into New York City Saturday morning for what could have been a normal day, enjoying the city during abnormally warm weather. But in less than an hour their lives would drastically change as the pair would be arrested for throwing homemade bombs during an anti-Muslim protest outside of Zoray Mendani's home. This is what we know so far. Oh my gosh, they act like it's a creative writing course. And it wasn't an anti-Muslim protest.
It was an anti- Iranian regime protest, anti-Islamism. But they they have to make Muslims the victims. This is insane. We have a lot more as we move. The folks who help.
Make the program possible. It's the folks over at Superbeats. You know the company Human, they also, in addition to the heart chews, they make the turmeric chews. These are fantastic. If you don't have them, get them.
I've been eating a lot of them, a lot of them lately because I've been dealing with allergies and I get like inflammation issues that affect my sinuses and everything. And the turmeric chews, look, this is a very clinically studied turmeric-curcumin complex. A lot of the turmeric out there is really hard for the body to absorb.
So you have to take tons of it in order to get like, you know, your amount that you need. But with their complex, the turmeric-curcumin complex, they've solved this highly, they solved this issue. Of the body struggling to utilize it effectively.

Reese's peanut butter cups. They go perfectly with music. Podcasts, and welcome back to the show. Even nature sounds. Oh, and the thing where someone crinkles tissue and whispers at you.
Hello. Look, I'm not here to judge what you listen to. I'm here to judge you for not eating Reese's while you listen to it. Reese's. Ashley, go back to the nature sounds.
Nice. Yeah, it's really nice. You just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war. But you're the only person in your government saying this. Even your Defense Secretary wouldn't say that when he was asked, standing over your shoulder on your plane on Saturday.
Why are you the only person saying this? Because I just don't know enough about it. I think it's something that I was told is under investigation. But tomahawks are used by others, as you know. Numerous other nations have tomahawks.
They buy them from us. But I will certainly, whatever the report shows, I'm willing to live with that report. This was yesterday when Trump was speaking. Members of the press were grilling him about The convoluted reporting that has to do with this girls' school. in Iran that was apparently hit By some kind of rocket.
And The information that's out there, it's like 50-50. It's crazy. The experts are even arguing. Um Iran doesn't have Apparently, doesn't have tomahawks. Others do, but that's not to say that they couldn't get them.
Either. That means they would have to have smuggled them somehow, which is obviously illegal, but they would have to have smuggled them in something. Here's the thing. All of these people. that are railing.
about the girls killed in the school. Note how they have been entirely silent Over the 36,000 plus people. that the Iranian regime has murdered Since January of this year. January of this Year. And this is it includes civilians and government-affiliated personnel that apparently was pushing back against the regime.
Many Many, many civilians. And I'm sure that you've seen as well. The Iranian women's soccer team Some of them have taken asylum in Australia. I watched video. of handlers.
Trying to force some of the other ones on a bus. And get them get them to the airport. Seven members of the soccer team stayed in Australia. The rest of the squad left to return to Iran. They were shoved onto buses.
There's video of them being literally one woman has her arm and she's being pulled and shoved onto bus. The rest of the team is thought to have left the country and headed back to Iran. And they saw it. They sought the these seven these the five players were given humanitarian visas. And they did not sing the national anthem.
You know when the other team goes back. It's going to be pretty harsh for them. The one of the a guy who's a human rights advocate. Because people were crowding around the bus shouting at police, you know, save them, save them as it pulled away after the final match. There was a human rights advocate.
And he was also a member of the local Iranian community. And he and a handful of supporters said that three of the players inside were making the international hand. Signal for help. And they were in in the windows of the bus. And that's the when you hold your hand up.
It's like a one-handed gesture. It it's supposed to. signal distress.
So you hold your palm facing out and you tuck your thumb into your palm and then you fold your four fingers down over the thumb. And that's the international one-gesture symbol for distress. That means you need help. You need help. and apparently these women were doing it over and over again.
as they were getting loaded onto the bus. Don't hear anybody who's talking about the girls' school. with that. That's not to say that the lives lost in the girls' school Are in any way unimportant. It's horrific.
This is why war is hell, and fighting should always be a last resort. But tell that to the Iranian regime, which led its people to this point against their own will. The Iranian regime are a bunch of goat fornicating Islamist colonizers. That took over a Persian country, subjugated its people, and hijacked its culture. That's the truth of it.
That's the story. That's the tweet. They're a bunch of colonizing Islamists. that took over a Persian country. Very different.
People with different culture Different language. Different faith. Everything. They took it over, hijacked it, colonized it. and decided to subjugate everyone.
They did it with the help of Jimmy Carter. and Democrats that helped create this problem.
So, this they were making this hand gesture. And in the meantime All of the people talking about the girls' school ignored that. They've ignored the 36,000 deaths since. You know, February since I mean, really since January of this year. And as I said, it's not that those lives lost are unimportant.
But why is it that every other country is expected to care for Iran's citizens more than Iran does. This is like whenever Gaza whenever Hamas would accidentally blow up something and blame Israel or somebody else. Why is everybody else expected to care more about Gazans than Hamas, the elected entity that runs Gaza? If Iran did not want to have loss of life on their hand, they shouldn't have started what they started in 1979. They shouldn't have taken people hostage at our embassy.
They shouldn't have blown up our Marines. They shouldn't have blown up. Gone after our airmen. They shouldn't have tortured a Navy diver. They shouldn't have killed civilians.
I mean, there's a lot that they shouldn't have done. Over the past 40-something years. This is the same bitching and moaning that I hear when people talk about the Crusades. Oh my gosh, the Crusades were a witch hunt. The Crusades were a response to centuries of persecution by.
Muslims. And then finally, Christianity organized and said, We've got to push back on this. We can't let Vlad Tepes do all of it. And they pushed back. Oh my gosh, and then all of a sudden the aggressor, once outmatched, decides to use the last weapon in their arsenal and play victim.
Plane victim is the last. Refuge of the defeated. Oh, we're victims now. You can't go after us. Parley!
We claim parlay. Uh It's more of a suggestion. But that's that's how they operate. They absolutely operate in that manner.
So it's the same here. But they're trying to use that as a way, they're trying to go after Trump and trying to portray him as some sort of war criminal while lionizing hominin. And then. The son, because they killed the first one. The other guy is going to come up after him.
And that's, you know, and apparently he's marked for death, too, which means, you know, he. You're not gonna have long on this world. He's not going to have long in this world at all. But the idea somehow, people are like, oh, the hardliners, oh, the sun's going to take over. What all did Trump do?
The sun's going to take over now. in the world is wrong with some of these people. What do you mean? How many times are we going to hear the whole, oh no, now we're running, now it's being run by the hardliners? I'm sorry, what?
was murdering 36,000 plus people. Actually, that was done in a matter of days, but in total, since this year, was murdering over 36,000 people. Was that not a hard line enough for you? What about launching a war to destroy a neighbor? Was that not enough of a hard line?
What about killing Americans? Was that not enough of a hard line? What the hell are these people talking about? Hard liners. Oh, Motaba is a deeply hardlined cleric whose father and wife and other members were they were also killed in strikes.
What do you think the real hardliner what are you talking about, the real hardliners? All of them are like this. This is, I mean, Reuters had a story about this, and I saw that it was a. uh promoted by one of Katarlson's butt-boys. I'm like, tell me that you have no understanding of the region without telling me you have no understanding of the region.
Look, one of the reasons you gotta be brutal too with these Iranian mullahs is most people know this, drive-bys don't. They don't operate the same as normal civilized people. Civilized people, we have things in our lives that we value. We have our faith and we have our family. You know, we have our our the pride in our work.
We have a number of things that we That Can all, of course, can all be leveraged against you. Yes, you can all look at it. They can all be weaponized into a weakness or a strength, depending on. you know, whether or not you're an optimist or a cynic, or you're apparently a hard liner or not. These mullahs, they don't care about any of this.
The only thing they care about is ideology. Everything is about ideology. The center of their world is ideology. It's not a god, it's ideology, it's the practice of it. It's the tradition of it, the steps of it.
That's what it is, these hardliners.
So they they're not affected by the same things that other normal civilized people would be affected by. That's what makes it different. That's why conventional means and regular approaches, you know, you got to change it up. You know, these people so worried about a girls' school. I noticed that none of these people said anything about the Yazidi women that were taken into Captivity.
They had about 19 or 20 Yazidi girls one time. This is back when they had the Islamists with ISIS. They were in Iraq and they captured a bunch of them and they sold some into sex slavery. They put 19 of them in a cage, and there's video and photos of this. They put them in an iron cage.
because these were the girls that refused to convert. No matter what ISIS did to them, they refused to convert.
So Isis put them in a cage. They put them in a back of a little Mazda pick up. And they drove it through the streets of Mosul. And then they got to a common square. And they set these girls on fire in the cage in front of everyone in Mosul.
There were no protests in Gaza for these girls. There was no questions from reporters about these girls. Nothing. In fact, no one ever talked about any of the Yazidi women that were sold into sex slavery. They didn't discuss it.
It didn't never it never came up in any kind of questions. Not for Obama, not for Biden. There was none of these college protests for them, that's for sure. These people don't really care about these civilian lives because if they cared about the civilian lives, they would want to get rid of the big thing that actually threatened and cost civilian lives. These people that claim to be America first and are railing against this and are trying to present this as being only Israel when I've explained a million times how Israel really has nothing to do with it.
They're actually trying to hurt America. They're Iran first, their regime first. It's almost like hominies from the dead writing the words coming out of their mouths. It's not America first to try to kneecap America and make us weaker on an international stage. to have us Retract.
to just our little pole, our little area. It's demonic. But no one said anything about those girls. Not one. No one said anything about the thousands of people that were murdered.
And I mean it was In public. I mean, good night, the last Green Revolution you saw. But they are Going after, oh, it's the Iranian school bombing. You know, they hominy. had bombed a school in 1978.
Bomb the theater.
Soaked it with airplane fuel, set it on fire. 470 people inside the cinema rec died. Oh my gosh. Suddenly now they're worried about schools? After the regime has been like burning people, killing people since the seventies.
This is how they stay got into power and stayed into power. And all these people who have no idea. what they're dealing with are falling for it all over again. Modern day Bakabazi. It is so easy to work with fast-growing trees.

Motive? Um, there's what was I gonna do? Stop myself? Tune in next time to see if I do it again. Spoiler.
I will. Wow, that had everything. Breases, suspense. Reese's And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
All right, so I felt good grief. A New Jersey woman was arrested for fake dentistry after she failed to finish a root canal. That sounds really bad. She was performing dental work without a license. She tried to root canal, do a root canal on a guy.
Couldn't finish the job. Patient told investigators that he had an appointment with this woman and he saw her advertising in a group chat on WhatsApp. Yeah, that sounds legit. He told the cops he agreed to pay her $1,000 for the procedure. And he arrived.
She injected his gums with an anesthetic. She drilled his tooth, then abruptly stopped, told him to come back later in the week. But before he could, she told him she couldn't finish the procedure, gave him a list of dentists who could do it. When he tried to get his 300 down payment, she refused. They decided they started, they had risen altercation.
And I turned up at the police station. He had gauze in his mouth. Oh my gosh. So she was arrested, charged with unlawful practice of dentistry. This guy's also a dumbass and he should be arrested for that.
Because who sits here and is like, oh, this looks like a cheap root canal on WhatsApp? Doomsday fish stranded on Cabo San Lucas Beach.
So these are deepwater fish. And whenever people see them, they're like, oh my gosh, the world's ending. Everything's horrible. All the world's coming to an end, apparently, but I don't know. They just look like giant, weird-looking ribbon snakes.
That's kind of how I view them, but. Uh yep, that's right there. Crimson dorsal fins. They're from the deep, like 3,000 I mean feet deep. Really popular in Baja California, sir over the years.
But they're always usually dead. They come up on the beach, but now two of them. These ore fish. And apparently one means doom, so we're gonna get double doom.
Okay. Cocao beans. Cocoa beans are rotting, and West African farmers are seeking other options. A lot of this is because a lot of the farms were reallocated to people who had no idea how to do farming. Oh, yeah, this guy's one of them.
This guy named Manu Fofi was born into the cocoa farming business, but land bequeathed of him has become more of a burden than a blessing. Beans are riding in warehouses. Global chocolate makers scramble for supplies. It actually, so we made chocolate from scratch, from the cocawa or the cocoa beans. It's like a three-week process.
It and it's amazing and it tastes very good, but You have to have patience and it's also gross because when you open the cocoa beans, they look like aliens. And like you pull out a gross, clammy spine, and it's all white and gooey, and it's disgusting, and it's weird. Anyway, a neighbor called police on a 92-year-old over the frog noises from her backyard. He called the cops over frogs. Nature would like to have a word.
Stick with us.
So, I've been paying attention to what's happening with gold and silver lately. And honestly, it's pretty shocking. Gold and silver have risen to record highs in relation to the dollar.

He's so mad. Because he's like, they're trying to run down the clock. He's calling out Republicans for allowing Democrats to run down the clock. And it's true. If we don't have time for 27, I'm going to save it.
But uh We do? Yeah, go ahead. This is Thune erupting earlier in rage at Democrats shutting down DHS. Listen. Overtures were made yesterday to the ranking Democrat on the Senate Appropriations Committee.
Countless overtures have been made to the Democrat leadership. And they have basically said, sorry. We don't want to talk.
So here we are. In the 26th day now of a government shutdown, instigated by Democrats After they had agreed. to the very bill that they are now opposing. and are now opposing, even sitting down and talking. And negotiating on the things they say they want.
He's mad. They got to fix DHS. I mean, especially right now with these sleeper cells. Seriously. All right.
Today's stupidity came. All right. It looks like Virginia's Senate leader Scott Suravel had some thoughts about guns and their accessories. I thought this was interesting listening. You can keep it.
