We did not speak to the President.
So They play games, but let me just tell you, they want to make a deal. And who wouldn't? when your military is totally gone. We can do anything we want to them. Who wouldn't?
No, actually. I think what I love most about this is that he's having a press conference with the uh What is it, the presidential Physical fitness because they brought that back. Which, can we come back to that here momentarily? Uh I can't believe that we didn't have it this whole time. I thought we've always had presidential physical fitness.
What the heck? Yeah, bro. We did when I was growing up. We did too. I want it.
I want the thing. I had it in like all kinds of stuff. I was a jock in school, so I had it in everything. If we didn't I mean, I'm gonna get to what he said, but I'm sorry. I'm like, we didn't have these anymore.
When did that go away? That's the question I had. I look back and I can't pinpoint the year. I think there are parts of the country that stopped it first. And then other parts eventually ended it.
But I think that was a span of like five years or more. I mean, I'm shocked at that because I thought, oh, they're doing a little. I thought that he was.
Sorry, I'm just shocked at this. I thought he was gonna be giving the kids like actual presidential fitness awards. And then I realized, oh. We haven't had the damn thing. We haven't had it.
Uh Wow.
So that was in the, what did I just, I just, we always had that. The Presidential Fitness, I can't remember what I got it in, but I got the certificate and I got this whole thing. I did it every year. I mean, I was setting records. I was like, you know, I got to get all the things, as many as I can get.
But uh wow. My I I I Just am shocked at that. But anyway, that was the press conference. That the president had there in the Oval Office and He was with all those kids. All these, they were, I guess they were like, what, elementary, junior, high, high school kids?
They were all the. I don't know the ages. The one dude standing next to him was kind of not old, but he was like an older, he was like a teenager, at least, right, a preteen or something like that. But he's sitting there. This is why I bring that up and why it's important.
Because he's sitting there, and the press is asking him questions. And you know the press, they're not going to keep it to just. You know, oh, presidential physical fitness, you know, boys and girls' schools. They weren't even keeping it in that. They were immediately like, so Mr.
President about Iran. And he's just like, yeah, to hell with these people. The kids are right there. Oh, you got to love it. It's hysterical.
So, welcome to the program, Dana Lash with you. We're at the top of this first hour on a Tuesday that definitely does not feel like a Tuesday. I don't know what today feels like Monday, part two, I think. It does. That's really what Tuesday is.
Tuesday is just a glorified Monday part two.
So. It is, and you know I'm right.
So, welcome everybody to the program, and we'll get started with everything.
So, we're to even. Uh-oh, we got a lot to hit today because we're going to be talking about Islamism. We're going to get into Kane's account being hacked. Is your account still hacked on X, by the way? Are they gonna at any point gonna get that?
I actually got, you know, I followed the whole 2FA stuff. You know, the two-factor authorization is what got hijacked. Apparently, somebody created a PAS key offline.
So now my phone is no longer the source for the 2FA.
So it's one of those things when I contacted X, they emailed back and said, all right, now attempt to log in. And then reply to this email. And so I did and did, and now I'm still waiting. It's been a I don't know what's happening.
Well, there you go. There you go.
Well, hopefully we'll get that. I can't believe it's taken this long to get it figured out. It's got a ton of crypto. Did you have you heard anybody yet? Heard from anybody at X at all?
No, no, not a human. Hmm, not a human.
Okay, well hopefully fingers crossed. Anyway, so that... We've got I got oh gosh. I hesitated even putting this in your rundown. And so, when I sent out for the email subscribers over at Substack, when I sent out all that stuff to you guys.
This morning, there was one link in there. I was like, please, dear heavens, don't click this link.
Now I I put it in there because it is timely. It is Okay, it's a news item. It's a grody story about Eric Swalwell, and I honestly have no idea how I'm going to talk about this on air or if I'm even going to. I may just kind of gloss over it and move on because it's disgusting, even more disgusting than the previous headlines involving Eric Swalwell, you ask? Why, yes, dear reader, it's more disgusting than that.
Like, if you could take the level of grossness and then you put it on a steroid and then. Yeah, it's Why are they so gross all the time? Are you getting the fart audio ready? You are. And the complaint that I've heard from Republicans is the Ukrainians to help them cheat an election.
Yeah. There you go.
gas bag. That's the smartest thing that he ever said. Right?
So Uh We're going to get it. We're going to get, and then the law and order stuff. We're going to get into law and order and all that good stuff, too.
So, where to start? Let's with the latest with Iran, because POTUS was talking about. Uh a few things. Uh UAE That is not going to be hitting back at Iran.
Now, you have to know that. Iran, UAE, Saudi Arabia, even though they're Middle Eastern countries, the Saudis and the Emiratis, they won't let Iran sit with them at the lunch table. They don't like Iran for good reason, because they're crazy. That's like the kid that eats glue. Nobody wants to sit with that kid at lunch.
So they kind of look at him as like a crazy radical Shia, you know, ideological apocalyptic zealot. And so they don't have the best of relationships. Cutter tries to play all of the sides.
So they decided to hit out at UAE, which was a dumb thing to do.
So now UAE is going to be, they have zero allies. They have no allies. They are in such a hard spot, as you heard from us talking with Stephen Yates yesterday. Not even China wants to kind of saddle up to that. They're just like, dude, take a jail pill.
little too much. They don't even want to side up to that. Russia can't because they're still fighting with Ukraine and they can't really do anything. Their economy's in the toilet.
Now as this goes, one of the things that Trump did yesterday, and it made Europe quite angry, Kane, Here's the headline from NBC, ladies and gentlemen, pinkies out. Europe was rattled by a disastrous trend as Trump pulls 5,000 troops out of Germany. Muhammad. Germany's defense minister said, oh. Europeans, they must assume more responsibility for our security.
Is the ongoing disintegration of the transatlantic lines. I need to pause for a moment. We asked them for help, right? With the whole Iran thing. We were asking them for help.
Don't want us, they won't allow us to use our bases to defend. Our interests, which are kind of their interests as well, but they insist that we keep American men and women. There, at their base, is to use his human shields for their defense, correct? That's the way I'm looking at it.
So Europe is very upset. No, no, no, you can't use our bases, but you must keep your troops here to use these human shields to protect us because heaven forbid we don't want to do it ourselves.
So there rattled is the is the phrase. They're rattled.
Well, good. You should be rattled. This is what happens when you treat allies poorly. We you need us, we don't need you. I mean, granted, you know, we do like the history and the architecture and all that stuff, but you know what I'm saying.
It's you can't use this, and this was something that They had talked to Reuters again, is trying to very much pick a fight between Georgia Maloney and POTUS. And they uh had Maloney They quoted her saying she's not going to support any decision by the President to withdraw troops from Italy.
Now, Italy, and there, we I mentioned this a couple of weeks ago. They had a big referendum over there, and the Conservative Party ended up losing. They were fighting over judicial reform, which they very much needed, and the Conservative coalition ended up losing that. You know, you have Lega, you have Fratelli di Italia, you have about three big conservative, well, two big conservative sort of factions, and then one moderate, and that was Brusselloni's faction that are over in Italy. And they gained a lot of ground, but they've also been losing some ground as well.
It is a fight tooth and nail just to get the ground that conservatives win over in these European countries. And that being said, Italy still, even with that loss, has the most conservative government of any of the European nations. I mean, she is the most conservative leader. It's a very tricky position for her to be in because she's trying to navigate the lay of the land there and prevent any further losses while also simultaneously honoring the alliance as a conservative leader with another conservative leader, and that's POTUS here with the United States of America.
So, it's a little tricky.
So, I give her a little grace for that. But they are really, that's they really need that fracture because they think if they can isolate Maloney and separate her from any kind of association with the United States or support with the United States, then they're going to crack her. And they're going to crack that conservative coalition over there.
So, that's why you can't just take your ball and go home every single time somebody hurts your feelings. You have to sit here and look at what is the end game of this. Why are they constantly pushing this? Why are they picking this and trying to provoke a fight between POTUS and then Italy's prime minister? And that's the reason why they want to isolate her so they can crack her.
They want her to think that they want her to feel completely alone as an island in Europe, as one of the singular conservative leaders over there. Not to say that there's not conservative members of parliament and even parliament going into the European Union, but Macron's not a conservative. Sanchez is not a conservative. I mean, none of these fools, none of them are conservatives. Starmer definitely, well, Starmer's not an EU, but you get my drift.
Over in Europe, she's the only one who stands alone. I mean, you could say that Polish, the Polish leader, but.
So That's the whole end game with that. But he's really, you know, and he didn't say that he was going to take everybody out, but he is saying, look. You wouldn't let us use your bases.
Now, Italy, when we asked to use a base there, apparently there's like a protocol, I don't know, protocol schmotocol, but apparently that was not a hard no from the Maloney administration. It had to do something with the more. Progressive members of their parliament that were insisting the United States dot every I and cross every T, and that wasn't done.
So they decided to put a throw a wrench in it. That's ultimately what ended up happening with that. It wasn't Maloney's not becoming less conservative, Salvini's not becoming less conservative. None of that's happening.
So, POTUS is He's a little bit more than saber-rattling with all of this. He's reminding everyone: look. You won't let us use our bases, and you can't have our bases in your country. You're on your own if it comes to securing your own peace, if heaven forbid your attack. That's scaring the hell out of some of these NATO nations.
And it ought to. He's playing hardball. I just feel like he's, you know, pedal to the metal. He is all the way like, you know. He knows that his time is limited and he's doing everything he possibly can with it.
And we can't do any of this without the people who make it possible. And one of those individuals, one of those entities, is Relief Factor.

So even if you think this isn't your issue, give it a minute. You don't have to agree with people. You just have to decide you're not okay with hate. That's it. The blue square is a simple way to say that out loud.

Slow the scroll. Start asking better questions. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. Oh boy.
Oh, so this is crazy.
So a two cent item. is now maybe m potentially threatening NatSec. Kind of crazy. Night uh how do you say this? Night.
Nitrile gloves. The little nitrile gloves, the little rubber gloves that you use, like the factors use, et cetera. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, like, armed forces use them, U.S. manufacturing. We use these nitrile gloves 100 to 120 billion every year. Less than 1% of them actually are made in the United States.
So, we are actually super dependent on China and Southeast Asia for the production of said gloves. and countries are now suffering shortages. Because of raw petrochemicals that they need to use to produce them. And so, yeah, that's not where they're gonna. I'm not gonna say that I got a bunch of boxes of them, but I may, because I keep, I stockpile everything.
So I'm just saying, you know. Also, Obama says that Trump caused tension in his marriage, Big Mike, after, and it has, and the former first lady has issued a, she issued a dramatic plea. Uh he says that it caused trouble at home. He keeps getting pulled back into politics. You also you did this he did the same thing with Bush for eight years I don't want to hear it.
I don't want to hear it. OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft are backing a bill to fund AI literacy in schools. Ooh, this looks kinda crazy. The new bill introduced by Adam Schiff. Is one of them.
Would award grant, yeah, major red flags. Would award grants to the National Science Foundation.
So we're gonna give taxpayer money to another org. That To put AI literacy in schools. I'm sure, yeah, it's going to be like the early learning center. There it is. Uh, let's see, surveillance cameras with flashing blue lights draw complaints in North Hollywood.
Nobody likes them because they're weird and it makes you think that you know it's always like an emergency or like something. I don't know. But they said that they're using them on these North Hollywood-like parking lots. And that it's bothering the people in the area.
Well, duh, it would bother anybody. Mexico City is sinking by nearly a foot annually, risking displacement of millions of people. That's, I'm sure, not the cartels doing any of that. They said that they're that I didn't, that's kind of a crazy thing. Your pop-up ads, New York Post.
If I oh my gosh, I would arrest all of you for it. But the Associated Press said that it's actually threatening the foundation of the city. You know, you're supposed to trust the system when it comes to Medicare. Just trust it. Just talk, go to the government website.

Slow the scroll. Start asking better questions. Welcome back to the program, Top of the Third Hour. Dana Lash with you. And don't forget, you can go and find more over on my Substack chapter and verse.
And you can subscribe and get all the show prep and all the other good stuff as well. Find us on YouTube and Facebook. And of course, if you missed anything prior to the previous two hours, we've got the podcast where you can go back and check that out as well.
So, later on the show, we're going to get the latest on that. Very Islamist water park. Remember, the story is changing now because the organizers realized they couldn't use a public facility and discriminate against people of other religions.
So we're going to discuss that a little bit more in depth. But also, Very, I mean, a couple of other things. Got the, gosh, I'm not going to touch the Eric Swabble thing again, but we do have. Democrats with issues. Mm-hmm.
So, if they, yeah, I know. It's a big thing. We're going to get into the. Actually, the platiner. problem.
I followed this story, but we haven't really talked about it a whole heck of a lot. Um it's in Maine. And I think a lot of people just, you know, we had David Bozell on, and we were talking about. Um gerry or rather ungerrymandering because so much of this has been Add. Democrats that have gerrymandered these states, and Republicans are ungerrymandering them.
And when you see the way that the districts are drawn, you'll go, oh, yeah, I get that. That makes all the sense in the world. I get it. And so, When you look at the Northeast, the six Northeast New England states, despite the fact that They have on average a little over 40% registered Republican voters. There's not a single member in Congress that's a Republican.
And they have one Republican senator out of Maine, Susan Collins. I mean, New Hampshire, I think it's over 48% that are registered Republicans. But that's the direct result of gerrymandering. And David Bozell was from the Media Research Center, was correct in that media doesn't have a problem with it when it benefits Democrats. But the moment Republicans go, okay.
We gotta fix it. We have to make it more equal in terms of representation. Then they lose their mind.
So in Texas, We had four counties that were purposefully drawn.
So ridiculous. Like the one around Houston was a tiny little thin C, and then it had like a little peg on one part of it. Doesn't even make any sense. And they said You're literally drawing them for a race. The DOJ.
And by the way, this was bubbling up even under Obama-Biden. The DOJ was like, these are really drawn. You know, these are drawn for race, or under Biden-Harris, I should say. And they were. They were drawn purposely to make a minority-majority district.
It's a racial district. That's never okay. Democrats, heaven forbid they got to go into diverse neighborhoods and actually try to win your vote.
So the DOJ Was the one who told Texas, y'all need to fix this.
So we did, four districts, and it's fixed. I mean, we had tons of people moving here from California, New York, and they, I mean, it's out, otherwise, it's taxation without representation. And we know how well that went the last time. caught up on the 250th anniversary of it. And Florida, similarly, Ront DeSantis got that done in like two days, by the way.
I'll come back to that in a moment. But this is a real issue. these these states.
So of course you're going to get somebody like coming out of Maine. Um Graham Plattner. He is the Democrat golden boy from for that area. in me. He is the choice for the Democrat Party.
He's made headlines because of Bizarro super questionable social media post. His nutjob interviews, and of course, he literally has a legitimate Nazi death squad insignia tattooed on his chest. And he bragged about it in texts, apparently. That it was a Nazi insi Nazi insignia tattoo.
So it's not like he just went, the way he puts it, he just went to the tattoo parlor and he was just like, can I get this one on the wow? That's not how it went, apparently.
So he tried to tattoo over it and change it. But he's so Democrats can't really say That They don't have a Nazi problem. Especially when you look at what's been happening in New York. with Maamdani and Islamism. And then you see what's happening with Platiner.
He, um Golly, the stuff. I mean, he's really indistinguishable actually from the woke Reich. Grand Platinar is indistinguishable from the Woke Reich. I mean, he could he could go on podcasts, the sans Oh, I almost cane. I can't hang on.
I can't say the words. Can I? You can, technically, you can a circular shove. Could say. Yank.
Yeah, uh circle yank. Yeah, he's not going to go on the podcast to say in circle yank. He's not going to do that. But he could and he'd fit right in. He would fit right in, indistinguishable from the hosts.
and the rest rest of the guests that they have.
So he's running and He actually, he's getting donations. People are donating to him. He's even some of like the woke Reich and the moderate right. They're saying, they're basically, oh, well, the tattoo is just dumb. It's not the same thing.
Of course, these are the same people that lost their mind about Pete Hagseth having a Jerusalem cross. Tattoo. And they were trying to act like that was somehow a disqualifying tattoo. Your guy legit has a Nazi insig Nazi insignia on his chest. Then he bragged about knowing that it was a Nazi insignia.
and apparently told other people in writing about his Nazi insignia. But we're not supposed to believe with your own lion eyes, I guess. I don't know. The whole thing is crazy. This guy, he could win.
He could go to the Senate. In Maine, this is insane. Like sending out this guy.
So Dave, Democrats have an issue. Republicans have an issue. Apathy is going to be the thing, as I was talking about last or yesterday, with a lot of these municipal elections. Apathy is going to be the thing that really does it in for Republicans, even more so than this kind of stuff. But we'll follow this continually.
In addition to this, I got a couple of other things here. You know, I mentioned a little bit earlier Florida and the.
Well, the un-gerrymandering, right?
So this was interesting. I have a column that's coming out. In The Washington Times this week that gets into this. that gets into part of because there's been a lot of whispering and the rumor mill has gone into overdrive over whether or not is Donald Trump going to ask Ron DeSantis to join his administration or join even join maybe his cabinet. And so, this is something that the rumor mill has just completely launched into overdrive over.
You've seen some of these stories. I actually have a couple. For instance, like mediaite Brett Baer warns that Trump is in a political race against the clock with all of this. And it's talking about some of the people that are coming up after him. And there was an article in Politico where they were discussing how there are some inside Trump's inner circle, though, that don't like DeSantis still.
So my qu the question that I asked in my column was if Because DeSantis terms out in January. If Trump wants him, why shouldn't he get him? If Trump wants DeSantis in his cabinet, why should he not get DeSantis in his cabinet? I mean, it would actually be one of his better choices. Honestly, DeSantis is literally the most conservative and most successful governor in the United States of America.
He is the most conservative governor in the modern age. He's a blueprint that every other governor should follow.
Well, if they had the spine. You know, that's a part of it. And he's done this even in the face of a moderate Republican. supermajority in the state legislature there.
So they went from a purple swing state to have, I mean, they're basically a reliably red powerhouse. They tripled the number of registered Republican voters that they had. They kept the state open during COVID. He even sent lawyers after all of the mayors or, you know, local, whatever, anybody who was in a position of authority to shut any area down if they did it. DeSantis went after them.
He humbled Disney. He empowered parents. They did all of this stuff, lowered taxes, deported illegal immigrants, even built alligator Alcatraz. I mean, we could go on and on. Fixed in two days the heinously gerrymandered map.
He's delivered on every single major policy proposal that he has brought forward, and the only exceptions are the ones that the weak Republicans in the legislature have dragged their feet on, including former Governor Rick Scott's red flag law, which is something that DeSantis campaigned against when he first started running for governor. And he did all of this, not while just fighting the left, but also fighting weaker Republicans in the Republican Praetorian Guard, who jealously guard the access to the administration like their financial livelihood depends on it, because it does. It really does.
So, yes, the primary was contentious, but everyone's over it. Get over it. Trump's over it. DeSantis is over it. I mean, Trump is so over it that they regularly play golf together.
That's how over it he is, right? Everybody's over it. Everybody voted Trump. He's been a great leader for America, particularly on foreign policy issues, which I think is a strong point for him.
So The media isn't going to mention any of this stuff. The GOP gatekeepers won't either, because the former wants the division, and the latter values their proximity. to power more than they do their love of country. That's where it is.
So, CNN had a piece where they said that, oh, DeSantis is still hated by some within Trump's inner advisory circle.
So? We didn't elect them. We elected Trump. We didn't vote for these intertheric on people. We didn't vote for any of these people.
So if he wants d if he decides that he wants DeSantis in an administrative role, he should get him. Because he's the president and they are not. Very simple. I mean, he is not. And He, like Theodan of Rohan, does not need Grima worm tongue.
spilling sweet poison in his ear. for the at the expense of the Republic. Here's the need that.
Now, some have floated DeSantis for Supreme Court, and I don't like that, as a replacement for Justice Alito. DeSantis is certainly qualified, but I think that he would be entirely restless and unfulfilled in that role, and I think it would be an enormous waste of his talent. as an administrator to cloister him up. in a robe on the bench. I really do.
This is a guy who has successfully balanced numerous irons in the fire. and battled the left and the moderate right simultaneously. It Honestly, the pulp proposal of him going to Skoda seems nothing more than a way to get him out of the way. That's what it's to get him out of the way, to get him out of the arena, because his success serving in a Trump administration would likely dim the ambitions of other people. That's what I think.
So all of this, like I said, all of the political, the palace intrigue is so stupid. It's all so stupid. Anybody who thinks that this performative sycophancy is somehow. better than scoring actual wins. They are too idiotic to function.
That's not helping the Republic at all. And I'm going to tell you guys something. This administration is going to need some real Pipe hitters. these next two years. Because if the projections hold The Republicans will lose the House.
And they will lose the power of the purse. And they will lose control over bringing forward or stopping the bringing forward of impeachment. Senate conducts it, the House brings it. Democrats are already politically sharpening their knives. Trump needs some real pipe hitters.
So it's time for Republicans to kind of double down. On our strengths, right? And elevate the strongest lawmakers that we have. And fortify our weak points. That's important.
Because if you don't want the best options in the administration to advance, The constitutional interests. In our government, then you need to reassess whether or not your interests are for self or for country. Because It's really hard to be MAGA when you put me first. As we move, the folks who help bring you the program, it's new, it is a new partner to the show, and it's NativePath.

I know, wild. But somehow we've turned disagreement into a personality and hate into something people are way too comfortable with. And it's not just happening in one place. Hate is rising across communities in different ways and Jewish communities are getting hit especially hard right now. And hate doesn't just stay in one lane, it spreads.
So even if you think this isn't your issue, give it a minute. You don't have to agree with people. You just have to decide you're not okay with hate. That's it. The blue square is a simple way to say that out loud.

Slow the scroll. Start asking better questions. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. Yeah. It's time for Florida Man.
I got another one, another dude whose dog got attacked by a gator. You gotta be careful. When And you buy a body of water in Florida because Gators live there. I keep tell everybody this every year. Florida man got bitten by a gator.
He was trying to get his dog from the water's edge. Eight-foot Gator in Naples, Florida. He got bit on the leg. He was trying to rescue his dog in Naples, Florida Fish and Wildlife. They received a report about the incident.
He was pulling his dog from the edge of a pond at a golf and country club, and now he is being treated for his injuries. It uh they they removed the 8 foot 3 inch gator from the pond. And of course, it is the peak of gator mating season. And courtship for the Gators begins in April, they done tell us. And then it's peak mating activity in May and June.
So they you better be keeping yourself a safe distance away from them swamp hissing dragons. And yeah, they just get away. Don't get near the water. Don't even touch a puddle. Don't get anywhere near it.
So, should have learned a lesson. Let's see. Oh boy, here we go. We had this guy already: the katana and the tiki torch. This is, yeah, this is one we've had before.
But let's do this one, though, because there was a subway manager who somehow avoided a jail sentence because he locked a 10-year-old girl in the back room. For the crime of walking across a floor that he had just mopped. James Anthony Morris pled guilty to child abuse. And this was, he had been charged with the false imprisonment of a child under age 13. He avoided jail time somehow, but he was ordered also to undergo a substance abuse evaluation, a mental health evaluation, and follow-up treatment.
So he's gonna avoid additional jail time. But it happened because They um He apparently the 10-year-old had ordered her sandwich. And apparently, they he alleges that she noticed he was mopping the floors. She accidentally stepped on that portion of the floor. He told her to apologize.
And then he actually grabbed her hand and escorted her to the back behind a locked door.
So, yeah, that's it.
So, that's not the way that you handle that. I mean, for crying out loud, come on. Let's see. Oh, my gosh. A drawn Florida man mowed down a great grandmother, getting her mail, and killed her in her own front yard.
This is horrible. A 77-year-old Florida woman was mowed down and killed while getting her mail. The police say that it was a drunk neighbor who lives within walking distance who did it. He veered off the road and hit her in the yard of her own home. Oh my goodness.
Vicki Noon, a retiree from Bradenton, was run over by Jordan Beard. It was a hit and run because he tried to flee. I veered off the road and hit her. He faces, oh boy, DUI, manslaughter, leaving the scene of a crash, tampering with evidence. And it was one in the afternoon.
And tons of witnesses saw what happened, and that's, you know, wow, that's so sad. That is so sad. In the front yard of her own house. The neighbors, they said that it was an area that's 55 and up, and she was enjoying her retirement. And apparently, she didn't even barely get started before that happened.
That's just a horrible story. Oh, I don't want to get into that one. Mm-mm. Nope. Nope, let's, or we can do this one.
Florida man says he may just stay on the D.C. Frederick Douglass Bridge for another day. What?
Well, I didn't even know there was a guy on there for one day. A Florida man who scaled the Frederick Douglass Bridge in D.C. said he's going to stay there for another day as the authorities continue to monitor the situation. Apparently, he is a Florida-based activist. And he considered climbing down, but he decided, no, he's going to stay up because he figured out how to charge his phone up there.
So he's going to stay up there. You're not doing anything, you're just sitting on a bridge. You're literally not doing anything. You're not convincing anyone. People just think you're crazy, and they'll probably put you like in a mental health observation hold for 24 hours after you're apprehended.
So, really, not going to do anything except delay traffic and make people hate you and your cause. Because when they are inconvenienced, they feel resentful, and that is no way to persuade people to join your particular side. The folks will bring you the program.

So, olives is you know, it's a fruit, and olive oil. Look, don't you turn away, listen to this because olive oil is delicious. There's so many things that you can do with it, and it's best right after pressing. Olive oil is basically a fresh fruit juice. If you're getting it off of the supermarket shelf, which I don't.
I'm a foodie, it's garbage. I'm not doing that. It's been sitting there for forever, losing flavor, going stale.
Sometimes it even goes rancid, and that's actually why I stopped buying olive oil at the grocery store.

Slow the scroll. Start asking better questions. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. I can't even with this headline.
Oh, it's so bad, but it's also funny. School director was ringleader of a child fight club.
Now, my first thought was: did the teacher fight the kids? An Arkansas school director was sentenced to 30 days in jail and 120 hours of. Days, sorry, 120 days of house arrest with electric monitoring and nine years of probation because she was accused of being the ringleader of a makeshift child fight club.
Somebody talked about it. You're not supposed to talk about it. 51-year-old Mary Tracy Morrison. Owner and director of the Delta Institute for the Developing Brain in the Engage program in Jonesboro pled guilty to one count of permitting child abuse, four counts of contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile. She looks like somebody, by the way, who would totally run a kiddie fight club.
She can't even work with kids in any professional capacity. She's got to surrender her occupational therapy license, et cetera.
So basically, a mother told the Craighead County Sheriff's Office that her teenage son was being mentally and physically abused while at school. And then they got video footage and they got her search warrant. And yeah, they would, she had a child fight club. They would hit each other with objects and things like that. And she would berate the kids.
And oh my word, there was kicking, choking, punching. All of it. And she encouraged all of the kids. And there were other people who were arrested as well. A whole herd of people that are all in their 40s that got arrested.
For all of this. That's insane.
So it wasn't just her, it was other adults that were involved in the kiddie fight club. Oh my gosh.
So Steven Tyler. Is headed to trial over child sexual assault claims. And this was some like from the 70s. He is accused of grooming, sexually assaulting, and impregnating a 16-year-old. This was like in 1970 when it happened.
San Francisco Gates, stupid pop-up ads that can make it very difficult. The first suit was filed in 2022 in Torrance, California. And earlier this week, a judge dismissed most of the case because of statute limitations. The pair lived together apparently during the three-year relationship. Didn't he?
Like, get custody of her at one point. Wasn't that the story? Yeah. So, yeah, I don't know. They.
