I just found this interesting.
Some little 20, 28. Palace intrigue.
Okay, little 2028 palace intrigue. We've talked about this quite a bit, and I know everybody's been looking at Hollymarket and Calci and all of this stuff, looking to see how Margaret pulls against J.D. Vance. We got to talk about some unforced errors with folks here coming up. I wanted to play this though because this was one of the first times that POTUS.
has said anything remotely close to. This narrative, this story about Vance and Rubia. I mean, they're friends, they're allies. But you have to also realize it's an old school managerial technique. to make people Friendly competition.
To stay in the boss's favor, right? Trump does that. Trump uses that. And Might be a little sum of this. I don't know.
I got thoughts, but I want to play this as cut four. Listen to this. Who's it going to be? Is it going to be JD? Is it going to be somebody else?
I don't know. Who d does anybody have okay, let's go you ready? Who likes J.D. Vance? Who likes?
Marco Rubio. All right. Sounds like a good ticket, JD and It's a perfect that was a perfect ticket. By the way, I do believe that's a dream team, but these are minor details. That does not mean you have my endorsement.
Under any circumstances. That's hysterical, actually. That's really funny. I I don't know that I want that as a ticket. One of the things that kind of caught, well, I mean, you've got Ohio's not really East Coast, but it's more towards the East.
Voters get a little weird with that kind of stuff, right? I don't know. Uh but Rubio. according to a lot of different surveys. Uh in fact He's been, there's another poll that's out.
This is like the third one that I've seen where Rubio is leading. This is Atlas Intel. They conducted a survey of over 2,000 American adults. They are Remember, you got to break it down. Let me stop right here.
These were American, these were the, I was looking at some of the crosstabs of this as well, the survey.
So while they are American adults, They are pulling this up. The majority of them are Republican.
Well, nearly the majority of them are Republican. And then they did not break it down to like, are you a likely voter? Are you a registered voter? Which I think is important because that shows you the motivation of making that preference a reality with a vote, right?
So take that for what you will. But they said there was a plurality of Republican respondents that chose Rubio over Vance. 45 to 29 percent. That was that's interesting.
So That's Very interesting.
So he's, and that follows a polymarket, Cauchy, things like that. Then you have this story. Let me pull this one up. Where POTUS, and this is from that same event. the audio that we just played.
But POTUS was talking a little bit more. He was talking about Secret Service agents. Taking the VP out of his chair, remember that? And getting him to safety. And there were people online, like, oh, well, look, they got J.D.
Vance out. The Secret Service agents went right past Trump and went to Vance. Everybody has their own team. And that security team is specifically trained and Uh, brief to deal with that principle.
So that's the person that they go and protect. Everybody has their own team, and they respond according to that principle. The president that was in the Rose Garden, and he was saying, Secret Service, I thought you did a great job two weeks ago. You know why? Because I'm here.
And then he said, he goes, they came out, and within seconds, I saw them take JD by the shoulders and lift him up like he was a little boy. And it was funny. And then he asked who likes JD Vance, who likes Rubio. And he goes, is it going to be somebody else? I don't know.
The fact that I think it is interesting that he definitely wants to shape his legacy. And some of his legacy is going to be determined by who is the candidate that comes up after him, who gets the mantle after POTUS. It cannot be someone who tries to emulate POTUS because he's, you know, kind of like a once-in-a-lifetime kind of candidate, right?
So it has to be somebody who's comfortable with their own manner of delivery in their own right. But It was kind of interesting. That He threw that out there. And there's a lot of discussion about who would it be. Um I Don't have a dog in this fight.
I really don't. I have someone that I think Rubio has been doing incredibly well, but there's a couple of things that. We need a resolve. And I have more things that need to be resolved with Vance than need to be resolved with Rubio. There are two large issues with Rubio and a couple of large issues with Vance, but more smaller issues with Vance.
Does that make sense? And that's, you know, for when we get we get up to that point. But I also think that Rubio's rise has been way more organic than Vance's. I don't think Vance's rise has been organic at all. I think it's been entirely constructed and manufactured.
And I'm not saying that as an insult, it just is. Rubio's ascension has been way more organic. Whereas Vance very carefully came out with a book, got on a, I mean, clearly he lost weight. He started wearing stubble, you know, started having a kind of like that kind of look. Really was changing up his appearance, etc.
Very different. Very different. I think it looks better on him for sure. But You know, I it also just projects Mm a little I don't know. And I don't want to say turfed, but definitely more controlled and manufactured.
Whereas Rubio's is very, very, very organic. And I think it shows. And that's one of the reasons why the resonance with his this speculation with him. Has caught on, and why you have the memes and all of this stuff. I even think Vance's memes were.
Pretty calculated. Whereas Rubio's, you know, where they're like, oh, here Marco takes another job, it just seems very organic and it's all over the place. And there's just something. That is very authentic about that.
So that's just one of the things I've noticed. Would you agree with that, or do you think I'm being too harsh, Kane? No, I think that's fair. I mean, one definitely seems way more manufactured. And when Trump said that comment, he didn't say.
Who was at the top of the ticket? He just said that's a good ticket. You know, but Vance would not ever run again as another VP. I mean, time will tell. I really see Rubio men have pride.
True, but I see, and for months now I've been seeing Rubio above JD if there is such a ticket with both of them on there. I don't think there would be. I don't think that he would take it. I think it's for him it's president or bust. But for me, I think Rubio would play a much better president than a vice president.
And I think that I think we're at a pinnacle here with Advance. I think this is about as good as it gets. Maybe. I mean, he may peak way early. But you don't want Rubio to peak early either.
I mean, that's a fair point. I mean, everything can be rewritten in the last two years. Yeah. I mean, politics, it's weird. Politics is, you know, where a month in politics is like 50,000 years, but yet two years you can rewrite the whole script.
It's just very weird. It's like saying the days are long and the years are short. It's just very weird. But one of the issues that I have advanced is, I think he's got some unforced errors. I think some of his answers have been particularly sloppy as it pertains to Israel.
When he was asked a question about his wife and her separate faith, her faith that's different from his. I don't think that he answered that. I think it was a clunky answer that he should have been better prepared for. I think that his closeness with Tucker Carlson is an issue. Because Tucker Carlson's one of the reasons that he was even there.
I mean, his and I think that's one of the reasons why Tucker's son no longer is the deputy press secretary for Vance. I think just to try to make it seem like there's some daylight there, he stepped down. But I don't think that that signals actual daylight between them. That's a huge problem. There's a couple of issues there that I have concerns about.
Whether or not they're entirely disqualifying, you know, we'll see, but it also depends too on how well they're addressed. You know, with Rubio, I have some, I was there at Parkland. And Rubio was on stage right before me. and he and I were the only Republicans that were there. And, you know, when you start talking about red flag law and universal background check, I mean, these are things that these are not.
points of uh t negotiation. These are non-negotiable things. And if you put them up on the table and you're open to negotiation on them, that's an issue. And so I would like to talk with him more about that because I would hate to see somebody who really came into his own as Secretary of State. be undone by unresolved poor remarks, as it relates to 2A issues and some things on immigration.
That needs to be resolved. And I you know, I don't I never say never to anybody. I never have. Like, you know, in the primary, I was like, well, you know, clearly in the last two primaries, we had, I liked Rick Perry and then I liked DeSantis. But.
You always, that's the point of politics, right? You give people. the chance to rectify their position, especially if they're going for elected office. Because you want to be able to have that power of persuasion and be able to get that person to agree with you and see. You know, the correct path and see the correct policy.
If not, what's the whole point of any of this? You know, is it just some sort of like exercise for ego? That's dumb. There has to be a point to it, and if there's not a point to it, then you've got to question the motivation and the whole purpose of it.
So, you know, like I said, I um I I don't have a dog, and this fight's way early. But There's certain things that I there's certain things there's more things I think that I like at this point about Rubio than Vance. And I I just got up I don't know. I have two huge issues with Rubio that have to get resolved. Because these are non-negotiable things for me.
You know, when you talk about immigration and when you talk about Second Amendment rights, non-negotiable. And in case you didn't, you were wondering, when we were at Parkland after the shooting that took place at the school there, Rubio told the crowd he was open to negotiating on red flag laws and universal background checks. And I watched it live, I was backstage. backstage. We were at a An arena.
It was weird how it was set up. And it was already going to be tough because I didn't know I was going on stage until I got there. And then my husband turned around and pointed at me. He was like, Girl, your job just got that much harder. And it did.
because it set up this. Insane expectation that I was going to go out on stage after him and then also similarly say, Yeah, I'll negotiate this. And I was like, No, these are not negotiable. And you can boo me and you can rush the stage. I'll take a shot.
I don't mind standing up on stage and getting punched in the face. That's a million-dollar video. I don't mind that, but I am not negotiating on this. These are non-negotiable issues. The end.
The end. And it went over about as well as you would imagine.
So That you know, I used to be really angry about it. Because it made it a lot harder. But I also know that there were a couple of different gun control bills that were in committee in the House. And depending on how that town hall went that night, determined whether or not they were going to come out be moved out of committee. And they weren't.
So I like to think that And some small way I help prevent that. But I never forgot that. Like I said, he is. Ruby has really come into his own, and he has been. Flawless on foreign policy, and a lot has happened since 2018.
So Would love to have that discussion. Not as a gotcha. I mean genuine good faith. I don't do like podcast Distan does. But these are things that have to get discussed.
You know, and like I said with Vance, I feel like it's just Very manufactured. Maybe it's because I don't know him. But the friendship and some of the that he has with Carlson and some of the closeness that he has with some of those factions of the right. I feel are worthy to be concerned about. And I feel like that we have to have that discussion as well.
Because there's not going to be a coronation. And that's the other thing that these cross tabs of that survey that I cited indicated. They don't want a coronation, and we're going to break it down for you.
So, we have a lot to hit as we move. The folks who helped make the program possible. It is the people over at Ghostbed, which is such a great. I mean, look, this mattress is just gonna put every other mattress that you've ever had to shame. It's just made better, and you know it right out of the gate, right?
And the first night, It's just going to be incomparable to what you were. It's like you're going to feel like you were sleeping on a hobo pile of trash. That's it compared to the ghost bed. Because ghost bed, they build mattresses like engineered sleep systems. It's not just a piece of furniture.
I mean, they are like health equipment and they're designed for relief and recovery, not just for fluff, right?
So your body is when you're sleeping, your body is supposed to recover. It's supposed to heal. It's not supposed to fight for comfort all night long. You're going to notice the difference right away. Less tension, better temperature.
You're not going to wake up sore. This is your prescription for restless nights and poor sleep is to get a ghost bed. And they make it easy. 101 nights to try it in your home. And if you do not feel the difference, which you will, but if you don't feel the difference because you might be a Martian or maybe you lost all feeling in your body, you can send it back risk-free.
So Ghostbed, right now, they have their Memorial Day sale plus an extra 10% off for all of you out there in RadioLand. Just visit ghostbed.com/slash Dana and use promo code Dana.

And yeah, you argue, you joke around, you disagree constantly. But when it actually matters, you've got each other's backs. No question. That's just being a good teammate. And honestly, that shouldn't stop when the game ends.
But right now, hate is rising across communities in different ways. And Jewish communities are getting hit hard by it. and hate doesn't stay in one place. It spreads.
So this isn't about agreeing on everything. It's just about showing up for people. The blue square is a simple way to do that. Just saying, yeah, I'm not cool with hate. Go to bluesquarealliance.org.

But can we just talk for a moment? I really need to get this out of my system. Can we just have a little talkie talk about? How DEI apparently is still making things horrible. Yeah.
When's the last time? Let me, first off, let's start here. I want you to be honest. What's the last movie that you guys went? to the theaters to see.
What's the last, like the actual, the last movie? that you went to the theaters to see i can i i mean i can actually count On one hand, In the past. Five years, the times that I went to the theater to see a movie. Because they're just they're horrible They're horrible. I don't like a lot of it.
They're just not creative. The first. I know, like, right when COVID ended, everybody I think went to go see Top Gun. And then after Top Gun, I think I've only seen like two others. Yeah, that's that's kind of it.
That's really it. One of them was Dracula because Tim Burton did the soundtrack. And uh yeah, that was pretty much it. What about you, Kane? What's the last movie that you went to see?
That you were happy, that you even felt like this is a worthy investment of my time. Believe it or not, it was an anime movie. It was the Chainsaw Man movie. Oh, yeah, that's good, though. But that's not even an American production.
I know. That's probably why how starving we are for original content. Yeah, I know.
So Um Chris Nolan, who did, I'm pulling this up, so he did. He's done a ton of different films. Christopher Nolan, right? He also, he, I think maybe the one that you guys might mostly know is he did The Dark Knight, right?
So he did the Dark Knight Rises. He did Interstellar. He did Oppenheimer. He did Inception. He did Tenant.
He does all of those sort of like psychological kind of mind job movies. I mean, I would say Inception definitely was that. Interstellar, that was a good movie, right? I mean, it it was a good movie.
So This um Latest venture. And they're really doing the full push on it because I kept seeing these made-up quotes, which I thought were made-up. But I kept seeing this all weekend. And that's right, one well, no, wait, he didn't do Chris Nolan didn't do Avatar. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, you went to see Avatar. That's right. Yeah. Did you wait let me ask did you like it? Yeah.
He didn't have. James Cameron does three gun.
So I give him some grace 'cause he's he shoots, you know. He does. That's Taron Tactical told me that, Taryn Butler.
So. Back to my point. Christopher Nolan film, I kept seeing these reports of, oh, well, here's the casting for the movie and all this stuff, and I thought. Hmm. Can't I don't believe this.
There's no way because he's making the Odyssey And the Odyssey Is they've got some very interesting casting stuff happening with this.
Now, they haven't come out with everything. But, like, for instance, like Helen of Troy, what do you know about Helen of Troy? I mean, everybody knows. That she is a figure in Greek mythology, and she was considered to be the most beautiful woman in the world. golden curls, She was a half-god.
She was the daughter of Zeus. And so her beauty. Was the significance of her beauty that it was Zeus's power. defined in the form of her beauty, right? his power echoed in the beauty of his daughter Helen of Troy.
And so She was married to Menelaus of Sparta before they took her to Troy, right?
Now, you remember. the famous saying that describes the beauty of Helen of Troy. Hers was the face to launch a thousand ships. Because she was taken by Paris, who was a prince of Troy. And that made Menelaus he gathered a Greek force and he was going to bring her back, and that launched the Trojan War, right?
And She was eventually reunited with, you know, her original intended in Sparta. And I don't know, some people look at it like she's, you know, was, you know, whether or not you believe that she was a willing participant or what is irrelevant. The point is, is that. She was so beautiful that that served a point. That is the time when beauty actually was almost its own character in the story.
For a reason. I mean, men were fighting over her. And She needs to be a very sympathetic figure, a very beautiful figure. And now I don't know.
So The rumor was that Lapetia, and it's apparently true that she's Lapetia Nyongos playing Helen of Troy.
Now, I don't think Lupicia Nyango is an ugly woman. I mean, to the contrary, I think she's very beautiful. But there is a reason why Helen of Troy was described the way that she was. This is like saying that you're going to cast Sidney Sweeney as Dorothy Lang, who is in Hidden Figures, right? Everybody knows the movie Hidden Figures, don't you?
That was the black mathematician who ended up with helping with Apollo, and they did this like whole Oscar-winning movie. And Viola Davis, I think it was Viola Davis, I can't remember who played her. She, I mean, she played it. That's like saying, well, okay, well, we're going to cast Paris Hilton as Mulan, and Sidney Sweeney is going to play Dorothy Vaughan and Hidden Figures. Maybe Sidney Sweeney could, you know, also, I don't know, let's she could play Tatiana and the Princess and the Frog.
Who knows? Mm-hmm. I mean, it's insane. She's pretty and I'm I feel like there's very few actresses. I mean, that's a big thing: a face to launch a thousand ships.
But she was described in a certain that there's a reason why the physical description matters because the physical description is almost its own character that can stand just as independently as Helen of Troy can.
So Chris Nolan. Oh, it gets better.
So apparently, Lupicia Nyongo is going to be playing. You have someone who's from sub-Saharan Africa who's going to be playing Helen of Troy. And like I said, it's not that I don't find her beautiful. But we're talking about the face to launch a thousand ships. This is when, yeah, the typecasting has to happen.
Okay.
So In addition to that. He was talking about the other. Chris Nolan in this interview was talking about some of the other people that he was going to be casting, right? And He was discussing the story of um. Oral poetry.
And how he wanted to get rid of orchestration because of that. He didn't want to have orchestration, which I thought was a little weird. you know, because of Um Oral poetry. I gotta reopen my thing because everything froze. It's one of those days.
And who was the guy that he, Travis Scott?
So he was going to cast Travis Scott in the film. And when he was asked about Why did he choose to make that kind of decision on casting? He had said, Well, it was because this story kind of upholds. You know, it's been handed down as oral poetry, which is analogous to rap. And I thought, wait a minute.
Is it most? musical expression Considered oral poetry. And he's, Travis Scott was cat, and this is from the Time magazine article where he was giving these, you know, these interviews. And so he was saying that that's you know, he cast Travis Scott because He, you know, it's the the tradition of oral poetry that's you know being handed down. And so he just thought that this was made sense.
I don't know. Kane doesn't most music oral poetry. Yeah, I would think. Yeah, I mean the songs with lyrics. Yeah.
I mean, I don't know, it wouldn't rap be more rhythmic? As opposed to I don't know. My whole thing, he was saying he put uh Travis Scott In the film is a bard. And he said, quote, I cast him because I wanted to nod towards the idea that the story's been handed down as oral poetry, which is analogous to rap. Even the string instrument plays a surprising role, blah, blah, blah.
And he said that he had this idea of a liar or being a liar being the pluck of Odysseus' bow. But they're getting rid of orchestration because they said, well, orchestras didn't exist back then. Aren't they in a type of armor that didn't exist back then, also? I'm just like I know, if you're confused, welcome. We all are.
We're trying to figure out what this even is. Kane? You know what else wasn't invented than cameras? Yeah, so how did we capture all this? Great question.
Yeah. He said, quote, Uh he was talking about Ludwig Gorinson. He instructed him not to use the orchestra for the Odyssey score. And Gordenson says, It's not like the orchestra existed back then. It was a challenge and it also an opening to make something unique.
Yeah. Every single thing that I'm hearing about this movie makes me not want to go see it. And it's a great story. I mean, you were handed an amazing piece of work that you really don't have to do anything to. Just bring it to life on the screen.
That's all. And which has been done before. Brad Pitt, wasn't Brad Pitt Achilles? Oh, gosh.
Okay, so that's the one thing. Let me get to that. That one, I don't. Let me look at this because they keep refreshing it because they keep changing the IMDb page.
So so far I don't think Everyone was saying that that Elliot Smith or Elliot Page Is Is going to be playing Achilles, and I don't necessarily know if that's been confirmed. But Elliot Page, she's listed. She's the actress, Ellen Page, who became Elliot. who decided to have like a transition and become a dude. She's the rumor was that she was going to play Achilles.
And she's listed on the IMDb page.
So I don't know. Yeah, yeah. Kane, I don't know if that, if she's actually playing Achilles. But Lupicia and Yongo apparently is going to be Helen of Troy. I mean, at least they're.
And is it confirmed?
So there's a lot of, but she's listed on IMDb, so take that for whatever you will. And so is Lupici Nyongo. And it was weird because he hasn't announced all of the casting for it yet. Right? True.
But they've already started, they've been filming for a while already. But all just the stuff that I'm hearing from it at this point, it just sounds like a hot mess.
So, I don't know. I don't mind Travis Scott playing a bard, but this idea that, well, you know, this is like world poetry.
So, I hired a rapper.
So, is it like, what kind of music are we going to expect with this? Is it going to be so stupidly anachronistic that it makes it impossible for the viewer to maintain a suspension of disbelief long enough to actually get into the story? I I I just don't Yeah, Juan, Juan's like, I am not watching this if she's playing Achilles. Dude, all of us, all of us.
Now, again, rumor. But he hasn't said no. But I think they like that kind of Whisper campaign. It's like free PR, unearned media for them, right? Just look, it's the Odyssey.
You don't have to do anything crazy to it.
Now I made mention of this earlier. And I always love the people who are like, well. you know that this is, you know an actual fictional story. You know. And it's like, no, it's an actual piece of literature with real meaning.
And if people want to rewrite this story, then perhaps they could stretch their imaginations and create a new one of their own and not ruin the original. That's the thing. And then everyone's like, well, you're a racist. What if you don't buy into DEI casting? Again, that is literally like having Sidney Sweeney play Dorothy Lang.
So if you don't like Sidney Sweeney cast as Dorothy Lang, then you're a big giant racist. I mean, it could go both ways. I'm not going to sit here and entertain that as a legitimate response. That's in that's asinine. Just stop.
Just stop ruining everything. Just make the damn movie. You're given an amazing piece. Of work. You do not need to mess with it.
These directors that come up and they're like, oh, well, I guess I'm better than the source material. We got a lot more on the way as we roll towards the headlines.

I wanted to give you an update about this story because we're going to get into some Islamism and then some of the crazy stuff that was happening in New York with. Literally an anti-Semitic march where they went to a synagogue and were target and marching through Jewish neighborhoods waving like Hamas propaganda.
Before we do that though, closer look at Texas. Let's go back to Texas because you guys remember we talked about this last week. It's the water park in Grand Prairie. And city owned. Taxpayer funded, and you had this Muslim group that was going to host.
An event there, and they were saying over and over again it was for Muslims only. And they Put out all their flyers and it said Muslims only on their website. Actually, it was on their website. Maybe they've changed it now, but legit like Thursday of last week, it was still said Muslims only on their website. And Governor Greg Abbott.
It issued a statement saying, if you're going to use a public accommodation and deny, Wand's showing you right now the before and after. They took Muslims only off of all of their promotional materials and then acted like, at first they acted like they never did it. And then they said, oh, well, we didn't mean it like that. Sure.
So Governor Greg Abbott said You get Grand Prairie, the city of Grand Prairie, gets a lot of. Taxpayer-funded grants. And if you guys don't want to follow the law and Not use public accommodation and follow public accommodation laws. And if you're going to use these public entities to discriminate against people that don't share your faith, then we're going to call in these. these federal grants or these these state grants.
And so Grand Pra Prairie, I guess, acquiesced because the event was canceled. And again, if you're unfamiliar with public accommodation laws, the civil rights, Title II, the Civil Rights Act, never ever said that it was just for minorities only. It's for everybody. You can't have an event and discriminate against Christians. That's literally what they were doing here.
The moment that you. And I had to explain this using picture books to some of the stupidest drive-bys out there last week. It was infuriating. These people, I feel like if you have to have this explained to you, I should be able to take away your right to vote. Anyway.
So They were Uh Using this this public facility. To, they were selling tickets and they were using it to say Muslims only and denying entry to anybody who wasn't Muslim. It was all over their stuff. Muslims only. Muslim only event.
over and over again, everywhere. And Good luck, I guess, if you weren't a Muslim trying to purchase the ticket to go to the Muslim-only event. You can't use a public facility that way. If it falls under Title II of the Civil Rights Act, religion, race, Ability, et cetera, then you can't discriminate against those groups. with a public facility.
You can't, if you're renting out a public facility and you open it to the public and you're selling tickets, you can't then say only, but these people only. You can't do that. That's not legal.
So that's what they were told.
So, I want to play this video for you because this is the husband of the lady, what's her name, Dr. Amina Blilla. Uh she's um The husband got very upset. And decided to record a video. Oh, I know his name's gonna surprise you.
Muhammad Abdullah. He went off. Listen to this. Cut 14. The governor of Texas is attacking my family and I'm sick of it.
Two days ago, Greg Abbott forced the city of Grand Prairie to cancel our E-Vent at Epic Waters. For the past two years, my wife and I rented out the entire park so Muslim families could celebrate Eve in a modest environment. This was supposed to be our third annual event. Then Islamophobes got a hold of a private flyer and twisted it into something it was never meant to be. We never banned other religions.
We even changed the word into modest dress only to make that crystal clear. No, you literally did, though. He literally did. He had it all over. And he considered my family.
Shut up. Shut up. If you don't like our laws, GTFO. You cannot use a public facility and be an Islamist bigot against non-Muslims. Bigot, that's what you're doing.
And so he's lying to you right there. He's lying because we have all the screenshots. Everybody does. They're all over the damn internet. That's the kind of problem when you put things on the internet.
It said Muslims only all over it, not just all of their advertising materials, but all over their website. You can go to my sub stack. I got photos up there if you want to see. It's all over X, it's all over Facebook, it's everywhere. He's the bigot.
It didn't just say modest dress. And his wife he's contradicting his own wife. Who said, well, I didn't mean for that language to be exclusionary.
Well, when you say Muslims only, how else is it to be interpreted? I mean, we're not stupid. We're not doing this. No Islamism in Texas.
Now you can go and have a private event at a private facility, and no one's gonna say anything. You can run and be a bigot as much as you want to and have your bigoted little Islamists saying, on a private at a private facility. But you can't be doing that and discriminating against other faiths at a taxpayer-funded facility. If you don't like that, then you can get the hell out of Texas and you can go to whatever third world hellhole your family came from. Although I don't think that your family came from a third world hellhole because I think this guy's from Brooklyn.
So he's pretending because I know that it's chic to pretend that you're from a third world hellhole to gain more influence and authority in progressive circles because that's the stuff that gets their rocks off. But In reality, guys from Brooklyn.
So They, I mean, it's a grift. And how much you want to bet? They're probably raising money off of this right now.
So he comes out with us all well. Who's attacking your family? What do you mean, attacking your family? The way that your brothers and sisters in Faith were attacking people on October 7th? The way that your brothers and sisters in faith attacked Americans on 9-11?
The way your brothers and sisters in faith shot up Fort Hood? The way your brothers and sisters in faith targeted Pulse Nightclub? The way your brothers and sisters in faith killed two girls here in Irving, Texas because they were too quote unquote westernized. I mean, where can we look for more examples? Not even dealing with this right now.
Insane. Oh, my th I'm tired of him attacking my family. What? That one believes you. That guy looks like he's four foot two, by the way.
be honest about it. I mean, you know, no offence to anybody who's vertically Challenged, but this, you know, this dude's trying to come off his heart, and it's just not working that way. But him and his wife should have thought about that. before they decided to do it. Before he can sit here and talk tough as much as he wants to, but the truth is that our laws.
state that you cannot use a public Taxpayer-funded space to openly discriminate against other faiths by selling tickets to only one faith. We're not going to bow down to these Islamist bigots. This is Texas. Follow our laws or leave. Those are your options.
There's no third option. Feels like, you know, this is Sparta. This is Texas. Done with us here. No, he.
I love it how he thinks that everybody else is the bigot. He literally was discriminated against people, but you're the bigot for pointing out that he's a bigot. See how that works? Yeah. I mean, that's it.
Now, what do you think would have happened? If a Christian group would have done the same thing, Christians only, oh my gosh, they would have been the first people to weep and gnash the teeth. Do you know his wife, by the way, apparently owns an early learning center? It's in North Richland Hills, Texas, approximately 25 minutes away from the studio. I looked it up on the map.
You would think that an early learning center. Where You're providing early layering. Yeah. That it wouldn't look like it's in a truck park, right? Right?
I'm just saying.
So she's part of the grift that the Somali diaspora is doing up in Minnesota. And in Ohio, she's part of that whole grift. I wonder how much money she's gotten for running one of those down here. in Texas. Maybe maybe uh Ken Paxton or Greg Abbott should look into that also.
Because the more this family talks, the more I get real interested. in everything that they do. And I think other Texans get really interested. and everything that they do.
So this is we're not doing this.
So, just example.
Now, in New York, I don't know if you saw some of this. Let's pull up this video.
So, this is. thirty four. Face covered. Anti-Semitic radicals, and they were actually saying, again, from the river to the sea, they were chanting all the Hamas slogans. That's more than just, we're critical of the Israeli government and the policy that the Kanasa were just, you know, no, no, no, no.
They are literally going after an entire people. And they were specifically targeting, according to apparently, some of the organizational. Material that was online, literally, like Jewish-only neighborhoods. That's some of the language that was used.
So they started marching through these Jewish residential neighborhoods screaming. This is 30, listen to this. screaming. chanting Hamas slogans. They got the Gazan flag.
All with their guns and flags. Going through predominantly Jewish neighborhoods purposefully to intimidate. with the full purpose of intimidating. And you got people like out there like walking through their yards, like stay on the easement, otherwise it's trespass.
So, I don't know. I mean, I just craziness. That was happening over. The weekend. And that's I mean, in New York, that's so.
Ma'am Donnie is getting exactly what he wanted. Mayor Mamdani is getting exactly what he wanted. I mean, that's his rhetoric. coming to fruition. Right there.
And by the way, that's not, I'm pulling up my notes on this because I think last week, didn't we have two other separate marches last week? Very similar.
So, one was there were two separate synagogues that were targeted. in New York City last week alone. Where you had the same people who are masking up and they were going out and they were screaming from the river to the sea, all the Hamas slogans, all of that stuff. And Nothing really from Mam Dani. And then you have this.
Now they're going from targeting the synagogues, now they're going to actual neighborhoods, residential neighborhoods. and marching through them.
So he's getting exactly what he wants. That's the kind of stuff that He promoted I mean, this is the guy that he had in the Mayor's residence. A a terrorist sympathizer. the guy who was leading the riots on college campuses? And promoting Hamas propaganda.
He had that guy in the mayor's residence, remember, during Ramadan, and they had a meal. Is a big thing as we move. The folks who help make the program possible, it's our friends over at Noble Gold.

and it looks like guys. It looks like Karen Bass has a new endorser. What? Karen Bass, you know the lady who like was BFF's with like the Castro regime, etc. She went to Cuba to do her like little revolutionary cosplay.
Mayor of LA, disastrous, like the city burned down. And well, now you got Magic Johnson out there, cut 26. Reason I'm supporting Mayor Bass, first of all, I go back with her probably. 30 years. She sustained the first ever consecutive Decrease.
and homelessness. Homicide rate is down. New housing units, 40,000. I mean, she's doing a tremendous. Wow, crazy.
Um Weird. I'm curious. How does he Endorsed for mayor because From what I understand, he don't even live there. No. Doesn't he live in Beverly Hills?
Thought so, yeah. I mean, I thought he lived in Beverly Hills. He's got a big old house. I mean, it's all over. 22 bathrooms.
I don't even know what you do to 22. Do you think he's ever used all 22 bathrooms? Nope. He has a mansion, 28,500 square feet in Beverly Hills. Beverly Hills Estate That's what All of it tells me it's in a gated enclave in Beverly Hills.
Cain? Is Beverly Hills Los Angeles? No. Oh. No, it's not actually.
You need to listen to what that rich dude who don't live there is telling you. He's endorsing somebody, mayor of a town, and he don't even live there. Beverly Hills has always had a Republican. They usually have Republican mayors.
So here's a real weird thing. I was at a um a thing one time. It was like a political thing. in Beverly Hills and Very nice individual was hosting. I think.
He and his wife may have been Probably the only serious Christian conservative couple I've ever met out there. Not kidding. I mean, they were really good salt of the earth people. And I wanted to be like, protect you guys at all costs. Why are you living here?
Let's leave. Let's leave. I'll help you move. Let's get out. They were that nice.
You know what I mean? It's like you meet people who are so nice sometimes, and you're just like, I want to protect you. And I wanted to be like, Do you know where you live? What are you doing here? They had kids, everybody's all sweet, you know.
Anyway, so we were at this dinner. And I was sitting next to Mary Hart. I grew up watching Mary Hart. I didn't know that. I grew up watching.
You all knew. Steve, you don't know who Mary Hart is, do you? He's not going to know. Oh, for turkey.
Okay, so Mary Hart, you remember the show Entertainment tonight? Oh, yeah.
Okay, so Mary Hart. Was the hostess of Entertainment Tonight. And she hosted it with. Oh my gosh, the guy who was also like a jazz pianist And he did soft jazz fusion album. John Tesh.
I have no idea how I know this. I am really great at trivia nights, by the way. I have an uncanny ability to retain the craziest and sometimes the most useless information.
So, John Tush, who did like a softcore jazz fusion thing, right? Anyway.
So she was the hostess, and I have never been in an environment like this. And I look, you can take the girl out of the Ozarks, but you cannot take the Ozark out the girl.
So it gets real when I get. Uncomfortable, everybody's uncomfortable. It's one of those things.
So we're there, and you know, we were, I was anyway, I was sitting next to Mary Hart. She was lovely. Big old Republican Mary Hart. Her husband, big old Republican, her husband was the mayor of Beverly Hills. And apparently Beverly Hills is a thing for Republican mayors.
That's probably why their whole city doesn't burn down whenever they have wildfires, because their stuff is kept up. They're very strict, apparently, which I had no idea about this, and this actually came up at dinner. because they were talking about Um grounds maintenance for You know what I'm talking about, like the maintaining of like vegetation and management, forestry management, and for different canyons and things like that. Because it goes up into the hills, right? And we were up, literally up in the hills.
Could see all of Los Angeles. It was very pretty. And I thought that was very interesting, and I remember You know, looking at Mary Hart and going, wait. Your husband is a r publican and The Maya? Oh, Beverly.
Like, he had been mayor of Beverly Hills. She's like, yeah. And I did not know that they were very. You know, that's like a little portion. Uh Southern California that's kind of Republican like Orange County.
I was very shocked by this.
So Magic Johnson lives in like a Republican leaning area. that keeps up stuff and doesn't let their stuff burn down. Huh?
So he can tell you whatever the hell, I mean, vote for the lady that let all your stuff burn down. Give her another chance to do it again. Foot for Karen bass. You know. What?
Now just I don't know what people are thinking if they're voting for Karen Pass again. Like Beth, like the fish, water, fisher and water. Maybe she's going to put water in the reserve, the reservoirs. That might work. I don't know what they're thinking.
But Magic Johnson is basically like Not basically, he's saying, hey, you know the lady that let all your stuff burn down? Unless the homeless defecate on your sidewalks and there's needles up in the street. And your kids can't even walk around outside at dusk because they could get mobbed by drugged-out fentanyl hobos?
Okay, vote for her again. I can't even.
Now you see why Spencer Pratt is surging. This is all she did. And they didn't even get the man good audio. They had this man standing in front of a super busy wall when he should have been the focus. Can we just talk about the production quality of that little video?
And you can't even hardly hear Juan can attest to this. That I was listening to the audio. That audio was so muffled. They didn't even have a m lav on that dude. for crying out loud.
These people are not serious. Vote for Karen Bass, the lady who let all y'all stuff burn down. I mean, it's probably pretty easy to say that when you don't. live there. I mean, they're such good friends, but she's not his mayor.
Just interesting, yeah. Yeah, they ate 28,000 square foot. I don't begrudge the man his riches. He earned them. Fine, I'm not like that.
But I am going to begrudge you being in one zip code and telling people in another zip code what to do. Stop it. You're only saying that because she's your friend.
Well, you know what? If you were a good friend to her, you would say, lady, you did bad. You did bad and you were a bad mayor. You need to go. You need to let somebody else take this over.
You need to let somebody else do it. I mean, they just, it's a mess. It is an absolute. Mess. I just, I, I, as lovely as the weather is, there is literally no way, right?
No way. you could ever live there and be happy. It's just not possible. Speaking of, I gotta get to this.
So, a Texas couple. They Lived in Austin. There's a lot of debate in Texas as to whether or not Austin's part of it.
So a Texas couple, they lived in Austin and they wanted to escape climate change. I want to stop right there for a moment. Yeah. Yeah. Am I misunderstanding something?
Because the weather moves, doesn't it? It sure does. Like wind and jet streams and. Clouds and things like that. In Texas, but okay.
So, wait, did they are they escaping the weather? Do they not like it being hot in tornadoes? Or because the climate has always changed, it's called seasons, Cynthia.
So, this couple fled Austin to escape climate change, and they wanted a fairy tale fresh start. in Maine. But it's not what they expected. Sean and Sarah Goode, they moved to Little City in Bangor, Maine. In late April, and it's known for its charming nineteenth-century architecture and Charming, that word's used a lot in this article, charming walkable streets.
But a few days there. They woke up. And they found. Poop on their porch. With it.
A homeless person slept on their porch and dutied all over it. Yeah. and they had to go and clean it. They had left cushions for outdoor furniture. They hadn't yet unpacked it yet.
And some a homeless person in meeting in Maine, in Maine, seized on it and dutied all over their porch as a thank you. And now they're like, we did not expect this. No one expects the Hobo Poop Inquisition. Nobody does. Yeah, yeah.
She was they they they were shocked. They were shocked, and the homelessness in Maine has spiraled in recent years to such a level that Bangor councillors unanimously passed an ordinance banning the storage of belongings on sidewalks outside of public spaces like the library, because I guess. the homeless their duty all over everything, and steal of it, and I don't know what else. I don't know. They said that Bangor was much more affordable than Austin and the climate change crisis forced them to flee.
That is what gets me. What about it? Forced you to flee? Did the weather just chase you on out of your home? miss mister or misses Good.
Yeah, they immediately go and they were shocked. That They immediately, they did not have duty all over their porch.
Now, they moved to Austin. And I guess they did not like the weather there. I'm reading this article, Bangor Daily News. They said, well, we had a lot of reasons to move away from Austin, but the one that hit us the hardest was the weather. We are facing our fourth catastrophic event in five years and nobody was doing anything to address it.
Wait, what do you mean catastrophic event? What are they talking about, Kane? I mean, it's Texas. Texas gets tornadoes. Texas getting some flooding.
I mean, that's why Stevie Rayvon has a song called Texas Flood. That's right. And on extremely rare occasions we'll get that snow. Very rare, the ice, yeah. Extremely rare.
But everybody also had a similar event that happened to them. Like when we got the ice storm, other people, I mean, there was like a literal blizzard elsewhere.
So they call themselves.
Now, hold on to something so y'all don't fall down laughing. Hold on, I'm gonna give y'all a minute. I'm gonna give you all out there a minute. Ready?
Okay.
Uh they call themselves Climate refugees. They are seeking respite from the weather.
So they thought they was gonna go up to Ma Bangor, Maine. It's real snowy and cold up there, Kane. It's like the north is the north you can go. Yeah. Yeah.
So yeah. They they're clomet refugees. They said that they grappled with extreme heat, tornadoes, deadly snow and ice storms while living in Texas, and the situation, they said, was only getting worse. Can you believe? They look like hippies.
They look like they drink bacteria tea and eat granola. They eat squirrel food. You know, Trail Mix is just squirrel food, right? I'm gonna pack some trail mix. I'm going to go do my glorified walking excursion.
They look like their blood type is tofu. And I bet They're Toms and Mains users in that house. How much you want bet Kane? What's your favorite Yankee candle scent?
Well, it's patchouli. Mm. Mm-hmm. You know that what did they what do you think they're if you had to guess what their jobs were what would you guess Oh, Lord. One of them braids hemp.
Pretty much guarantee that. One of them is a professional hemp braider. I was going to say something in HR, but you're probably right. I do macrame restoration. What gentleman?
Just saying. Our budget's $5 million.
So They leave Texas because it's hot here. That's a you issue. You should have known that because this is this it's it gets to be southwesty. You start getting into different environments and it gets a little hot. I would take the heat, it's a dry heat, I would take the heat over.
the avalanches and blizzards way up there. I can't do that. I don't know how these, these people walk around in shorts and 50-degree weather. I do not know how y'all do that. That is, I think, you know what?
The aliens are here. And it's those people. The people that walk around in 50-degree weather in shorts and are like, no, it's fine. Scrape. Those are the aliens.
So climate refugees, they were just shocked. And then they couldn't believe. They went to their new Haven and Main and someone pooped right on their porch Oh, my gosh So now, I mean, is that the sixth disaster that they've had to deal with? The ice storm was literally like a once-in-a-century ice storm. And the way that they characterize it, it's like they think it happens all the time.
These are just like weak-willed people who just totally fall apart. It's anytime there's something challenging that happens, right? I mean, every season has, you know, you're going to have something. You're always going to have tornadoes in Oklahoma and Texas. You're going to deal with occasional ice storms.
I mean, every area has its thing. You know, you've got the overwhelming humidity that forces one to develop gills in parts of Louisiana and going into the Gulf and you know, beautiful Florida and beautiful Mississippi. I mean, I know y'all. But This is ridiculous.
So they went all the way up there and now they're now they're pup set.
Well, I I mean, you should have looked at the governing situation. I'm just saying.
Laundry should not smell like a hospital bathroom. I mean, seriously, enough with the chemical cleaner scent. Enter laundry sauce, the premium laundry pods that don't just clean your clothes, they make them smell incredible. And it actually lasts for days. I dare I say weeks.
Summer is the perfect time for the Italian bergamot scent. It's fresh, it's clean, it's a little citrusy. It's like you should be sipping an apparel spritz on the Italian coast, not doing laundry in your house. I use it and it's easy. No measuring, no mess, no overthinking.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss, it's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So, first up, another reason to criticize Gen Z right now. Is there bringing back Hacky Sack?
Now, if you don't know what HackySec is, it's a game of crocheted balls that hippies kick around in a college quad. Or they're leather. No, they're not. It's all stupid. I've never seen one that's leather.
That's just, I don't even know what that is. I used to kick them around. But now they're doing it. They're, they're like, oh, it's balls the size of a clementine. They did this when I was in high school and college, and I've never played Hacky Sack proudly.
I've never played it. It's sponsored by The Grateful Dead and Fish and Hemp. Weed and patchouli. Yes, and Tom's of Maine deodorant. That's that's we're coming back to this.
Yeah, we'll talk about how you play it. It's so annoying. They're trying to bring it back. One-third, at least, say one-third, say at least one Trump assassination attempt was faked.
Now, remember, people like Marjorie Trailer Green have been trying to say that Butler, Pennsylvania, where one guy was shot and killed by the assassin. was fake. No, because they don't want to believe that their rhetoric, the left doesn't want to take responsibility for their rhetoric and act as though they so they want to act they want they want to be excused from any accountability. That's ultimately what it is. But they said, according to this NewsGuard survey, 24% of adults believe like the incident at the DC Hilton, the Hinkley Hilton, was fake.
45 say it was legitimate. But there's the same amount say that Butler, Pennsylvania was fake. I, you know what, even if say that, God forbid, say that you had an assassin that was successful, they would say that was fake too. Can't even. Seniors are skipping the doctor and they're going to get high.
Wow. Wait a minute. Like old people, the ones you don't like. Older adults, they're the fastest-growing group of cannabis users.
Now, wait a minute. Does that mean that they said they choose a THC CBD? But that's a different CBD's You can do CBD like oils and stuff that doesn't have THC in it.
So, I feel like they're not. Actually, being clarified. They're not clarifying this. They should use homeopathic. Because it's not like they're going and buying like pot gummies and getting, you know, high off their ankles on it.
You know, that's not happening. They may be. I mean, people are innocent. Netflix was sued by Texas for allegedly spying on children and addicting users. Alternately, parents maybe could just limit screen time.
So it doesn't matter what Netflix does or how they program things. I'm just saying, you know. It's everybody else's problem. Violence erupted at a steakhouse because an overentitled influencer was like, Don't you know how many followers I have? It was at an Arkansas steakhouse, and a woman who was dressed like a hoochie standing in the restaurant, Asia Yarborough, 22, she was booked at Pulaski County Sheriff's Office, disorderly conduct.
She was screaming that she has millions of followers and they wanted to make their videos and annoy everybody else who went out for a night at a steakhouse.
So they thought by like dressing like tramps and showing up and recording things that they would be able to do whatever they want. Stop recording your food and just eat it. Super simple, super simple to do. All right, folks.
So, I want to tell you about something that actually works. This is the world's number one expanding garden hose and their newest upgrade. It's the pocket hose ballistic. I like anything that has the word ballistic after it. I don't have time for cheap, stupid equipment that fails after one season.
I am done fighting with it. I'm done with the kinks, Eric Swalwell. I'm done with the tangles. I'm done with the leaks. I'm done with all of it.
It's a waste of money. It's enraging.
So, that's why. The pocket hose ballistic. That's why you need to have this thing because it's built different. I could beat somebody to death with this. It's made, it's reinforced with a liquid crystal polymer.
Now, you don't know what that is, but you do know what it's been used in before. bulletproof vests.
So that means, my friends, the strength is real, real durability, no nonsense. It's not going to mess up your garden. It's not going to like tie a knot around you. If you're tired of replacing your cheap hose every year, this is your fix. The ballistic is lightweight.
It's super easy to handle. And I like what comes with it. It comes with the pocket pivot.
So no more fighting the spigot. And ladies, it's gold. Where it moves, you move, you move, it moves. It's so simple. It's smart.
You're done. For a limited time, when you purchase a new pocket hose ballistic, you're going to get that free. You see it right here: 360-degree rotating pocket pivot and a free thumb drive nozzle. Just text Dana to 6430s. That's Dana to 64000 for your two free gifts with purchase.

No question. That's just being a good teammate. And honestly, that shouldn't stop when the game ends. But right now, hate is rising across communities in different ways. And Jewish communities are getting hit hard by it.

So I will be on Will Kane's program later on today. Actually, it's like I almost forgot. Yeah, 3 o'clock. 3 o'clock-ish central. Uh so we'll we'll have all of that.
It'll be fun. I think I can't remember what we're talking about, but it'll be a fun discussion. Do we have time? I'm going to get into this tomorrow because this is a big thing to unpack.
So Netanyahu announced that they're going to end Israel's reliance on U.S. foreign aid. And he says, and it's actually, people, I don't know, don't believe the misinformation that you read online from these, from the podcast to stand illiterate morons, because. It literally, I mean, I'm fine with it if they want to end it. I don't, you know.
It's a drop in the bucket compared to everything else that we send out. But what's more is we get it back. in terms of weapon sales because con I don't know what that actually I don't know what that means contractually if that ends because they were only allowed to bake by us to purchase American munitions and American weaponry. Does that still stay the same? Or is that going to change if this ends?
I mean, why wouldn't? That's a big question.
Well, I know, but wasn't that that was a condition?
So, and we did joint development of different technologies, you know, radar systems, everything else that we benefited from.
So there was a, it was a definite reason as to why we had that relationship because we didn't have that relationship like that with any other nation to where they had to buy only our stuff and share with us all of their RD. Yeah. And if you think about it, Iran being the largest threat, I guess, in that region for. Israel, now there's less they need from America in regards to defending themselves from an enemy that clearly is handicapped to the point where they're no longer the threat they used to be. I mean, we gave them $3.5 billion in aid about annually, and in return, we get over $40 billion.
billion basically in defence spending. that they would buy our stuff. That sounds like a real good ROI. I mean, I'm not Marjorie Tr trailer green good with, you know. uh trading and everything, but That sounds like a really good ROI, just saying.
She's just good with money. That's what it is. Yeah, okay. Today in stupidity, Kane. Oh, there was so much.
That guy, that Muhammad Abdullah from the Muslim EID event could have been him. has lots of stupid right there, but cut 19 is Timu Obama. Hakeem Jeffries, apparently this is their idea. Instead of good policy and selling you on it, this is what he wants to do. Period of time, we do have these structural problems that need to be addressed.
We've got to, for instance, make sure we pass the John Robert Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act so we can end the era of voter suppression in the United States of America once and for all. We have to end Citizens United, dramatically reform our campaign finance laws to stop the ability of these deep-pocketed special interests to intervene.
Somebody's upset USA ideas no longer funneling money to their campaign. It's what sounds like to me. What sounds like to me? We've been a gnashing of the teeth. Folks, that does it for us today.

Terms apply. When Kohler, global design leader in luxurious kitchen and bath products, asked me to be their ambassador for timeless, elegant, durable cast iron, I said, I'm in.
Soon after, I was in their Kohler, Wisconsin foundry, watching molten iron poured, enamel applied by hand, and the beautiful finished pieces ready to ship. Since 1883 Kohler cast iron has been crafted by incredible artisans, and seeing it first hand gave me a whole new appreciation for their craftsmanship.
Now, I'm proud to lend my stamp of approval to my favourite Kohler cast iron products for their durability, beauty, and enduring style. Shop my curated pics at Kohler dot com. As the Kohler Cast Iron Ambassador, I say, Long live Cast Iron.
