Democrats lose two key court cases on redistricting and start talking about massive judicial reforms and kicking everyone off the Virginia Supreme Court. Glad they didn't overreact. More and more illegals are giving up their asylum claims and self-deporting. And 42% of Democrats think Trump staged the assassination attempt where he actually got shot.
Some people are not well. I'm Greg Coromas inviting you to join Jim Garrity of National Review and me each weekday for the 3 Martini Lunch podcast. We'll give you the top news, some good laughs, and we'll be done in 30 minutes. Follow the 3 Martini Lunch on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Look.
He's not coming in with guns. He's not coming in with rifles. They're not coming in shooting. You know, somebody said he's been very good. They get a lot of their oil, 40% of their oil from that location.
So what has happened, and one thing I think that we're going to make a deal on, they've agreed they want to buy oil from the United States. They're going to go to Texas. We're going to start sending Chinese ships to Texas and to Louisiana and to Alaska. And I think that was another thing that was agreed to. That's a big thing.
What about liquefied liquidity? It's not that much longer. Gas too? Yeah, everything. Energy.
So The details from the meeting that he's had. With Xi Jinping in China, are starting to emerge. We're gonna talk to Stephen Yates. coming up at the bottom of this hour about that. And The Issue of trades and tariffs, all of that was apparently discussed.
He seems Like he's pretty confident. about how it went.
So I you know, the media was trying to do its best to make it seem like Trump was in the Beta position going over there, and there was much made of. the multipolarity comment, which was what the The Greek Reference was that Xi Jinping made right at the beginning, which we talked about in detail yesterday. But apparently, I mean they did discuss a little bit, apparently they discussed Taiwan. And the expectations but You know, what comes from that? You know, it all remains to be seen.
So, we're still getting some details on that. They did talk about Taiwan, real quick. We on cut three they did talk about Taiwan, but They POTUS said that he made no concessions, no promises. Listen to this. Would the US defend Taiwan if it came to it?
Uh There's only one person that knows that. You know who it is? Me. I'm the only person. That question was asked.
To me today, by President Xi. I said, I don't talk about those. He asked you if you would send troops, if you would defend them. He asked me if I'd defend them. I said, I don't talk about that.
Xi's in them. I don't talk about that. If you talk to him. Yeah, he's like, I'm not going to talk about that. He wasn't going to get boxed into anything with Xi Jinping.
And I think that that's smart.
So, all in all, I mean, I don't see there to be a negative here, Kane. I don't see really a negative at all. And uh It seems they were able to get some pretty good deals, which we're going to, like I said, we're going to dive into that. coming up with Stephen Yates. We're going to dive into all of that with him.
But the details of it as it pertains to Uh not just more than just Taiwan. The tariffs, the fentanyl. They did discuss the fentanyl. Here's a really fun thing, though, and I can't remember if I made mention of this. Did I talk about the Rubio thing, him traveling there and what they had to do?
Because remember, he was sanctioned. Rubio was sanctioned. I can't remember if I was a little bit more. I think we did talk about it on the air. I think you may have brushed by it in a broader conversation, but I don't think you actually drilled into it.
Okay, so let me touch on that.
So. Remember, Rubio was sanctioned. Buy China. I'm going to pull all of this up for you. And he, you know, being the top diplomat going into China you kinda need your yeah, I mean, you you're gonna have to have your Secretary of State, you know.
You gotta have your Secretary of State going into China. Just something that's got to happen. And uh Apparently. They had to change his name. This is what.
Make this make sense to me. Just let me put this out. As it relates to him and how did he get in there and when he was sanctioned.
So Daily, I think it was Daily Wire that had the story. His nameplate, some of the, there was a couple of members of the media, although I think they were briefed going out there. That were curious as to why his name was misspelled on his name plate.
So when they sit down, at the the big conference table. they have their name plates in front of them and their positions. And a lot of people were wondering, well, why is Rubios misspelled? This is weird. But it was on purpose because Rubio was twi he was sanctioned two times by Beijing, right?
and one while he was a senator. But because he is as Secretary of State. the top diplomat. He had to go with POTUS. I mean, POTUS wasn't going to go without his Secretary of State.
So, what the CCP did, now this is where. I don't know. Is they created this like workaround that allowed him entry without formally lifting the sanctions.
So the embassy spokesman in China said that The sanctions targeted, quote, Rubio's words and deeds when he served as a senator concerning China. And Apparently he was just very critical of their obvious faults. And They decided to switch his name around, the letters in his name around. as a way to have him enter. the country.
So I don't I mean, this stuff about the Uyghurs, Hong Kong. All of this stuff. COVID. He warned about Chinese espionage. And so, what they ended up doing is they changed like two, they flipped like two letters of his name, basically, is from what.
I understand, like, and then that's. allowed him to enter.
Okay, so maybe I'm missing something here. Why couldn't they just ignore the damn thing? That seems entirely performative for performance's sake. Yeah, but you know what I think? What?
I think that they have such a digital system. in place as it relates to who they punish through government, That I think that this is a system where they I think it's something that AI might be a part of. And they're like, instead of dealing with all of that, to change it. We'll just change Marco's name. Avoid the system.
Yeah, they like flipped. two letters of his name from what I understand, and that Misspelling. Was what allowed him to.
So, I mean, but that's true. That's so digital. But I mean, he's the. Xi Jinping is the leader of the CCP, he's the leader of China. Could he just say to hell with that?
Let him in. Big. That's why it seems so performative. It's like they wanted to show the United States that they were slavish to process. It's so it's it like seems so performative.
It's so weird. That's the thing that I read this over and over again. I'm like, that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life.
So I they literally just renamed him. What was his new name? I mean, it was still like kind of Rubio, but I don't know how to pronounce it. I can't remember what letters they. Macro Burio.
No, it was his last name that they switched. Oh. I just think it's they. I think it's just funny. that they changed his name.
So that and it was called a linguistic linguistic workaround.
So instead of Marco Rubio, it basically was like Marco Liu in their langu in the Chinese language. In Mandarin, it was basically Marco Lou.
So instead of Marco Rubio, the way that they changed the letters, it was Marco Lou. Elio. and their language. Weird, right? Yeah, okay, that's just this about thought.
So, welcome to the program. Dana Lash with you. Starting it off like that. What were you gonna say? It's absolutely weird.
And I the only explanation come up in my head is the fact that they're so digitally controlled, they just wanted to avoid all of that together and just change the name. And it's just so performative. It's just so incredibly performative. And I don't know. It was like they really were trying to showcase that.
This is our system, and we are like they really wanted to remind him that he was sanctioned. But they let it, it's just so odd.
So, we're going to continue. We're going to talk about all of that with Stephen Yates coming up. Here's a crazy story. I didn't hear this until this morning. This seems like This should be the biggest story of the week.
So listen to this. On May 13th, Maintenance divers at the, I'm reading this piece, Converse Reservoir Dam in Mobile, Alabama. Discovered an IED in Big Creek Lake that supplies the drinking water. to the whole area from like 17 billion gallons, I think it is. Multi-agency teams and that was from another piece I read multi-agency teams, it states, including the FBI bomb squad and local explosive units, safely retrieved and detonated it off site with no injuries, damage or water contamination.
Now, one of the directors for The team said that It was a quote unprecedented threat. and that they averted it with routine vigilance. And now there's an investigation with no suspects identified yet. It was literally submerged. at the bottom of a dam.
That holds the entire Resource of drinking water from Mobile, Alabama.
So To put it in another way, Someone literally put an IED. At the base of a dam. And It barely made national news. And the drinking water supply. Is that not an insane story?
Did you, anybody out there in Radio Land hear this? We didn't I did I read this this morning This was crazy. How is this? I mean, this is terrorism. Clearly, right?
How would this not be terrorism? I mean, The w I there was I w I was thinking of all of the different ways could it have floated downstream and I'm trying not to be precious about this. The I just I don't see that happening.
So they had a total emergency response. They, you know, thankfully nobody was harmed. But it was put in the drinking water. They were gonna it was like it was gonna blow up the dam. And I'm I mean, it's right by it.
There's pictures of them retrieving it.
So I'm really curious about this. The dam was built in 1952, 17 billion gallons of water. And the agency owns all the acres of land surrounding the reservoir as a buffer against any kind of development and to protect it. This seems like this should be a much bigger story. Than it is.
I mean, can a g Pork. I mean, obviously it can explode underwater, but could it take out a dam? I am made of questions right now. Made of questions. 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. You just throw a pot in and you're done.
But here's what really sold me and why I really like this company because it's not just about smelling good. Laundry sauce is engineered for performance. It takes on mud, food, real-life messes, and it actually cleans your clothes and it even revives your fabric.
So your favorite pieces look and feel like you just bought them. They're just brand new again. I'm not the only one. Over 90% of the people who get laundry sauce say they notice the difference after switching.

Here's a thought that shouldn't be controversial. You can think someone is completely wrong and still not hate them. 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.

So a Florida news news Sites shut down because they got busted for having fake AI reporters, stolen content, and even a fake editor-in-chief. The South Florida Standard, they offered local news stories in the Sunshine State, covering everything from politics to sports to, you know, whatever. And apparently, it was a digital mirage. Masqueraded as local news. The reporters were AI generated.
Their content was stolen. And apparently, they said it was local journalists working on the site, but they didn't exist. Even the, apparently, the photos. were also AI generated and they had copy and pasted bios.
Sounds sounds so China, I gotta say. Yeah, let's see. A woman is accused of smuggling X Extra razor clams in her waders. This is Washington, state of Washington, isn't it? Illegal.
It's state of Washington, isn't it? Of course it is. How did I know this? I'm like, this is Washington. That's it.
So, Long Beach, Washington, two people are facing criminal charges. They're accused of trying to smuggle. Extra razor clams in their waiters. It's the limit's 15. Of course, it's someone not here legally, of course.
Of course, I had to get around that headline.
So it's not five, it's just two. Ken Pak's the next. 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.

We are at the bottom of this second hour. I had a double think here. And happy Friday to you, getting you set up. It's been a very busy time here in Texas. Primaries, we've got runoffs, we've got all kinds of stuff happening.
We have probably, I think, one of the most important Senate races in the nation happening right now. And obviously, I know you all think that the choice is incredibly obvious in that you. You either like having your constitutional rights and having people deliver on promises like lowering taxes and fighting for the taxpayer and fighting against Islamism, or you don't. Very simple. Speaking of running for Senate, Attorney General of the Great Republic of Texas, who's a candidate for Senate, Ken Paxton joins us now via video.
So, sir, it's so good to have you. I noticed you were trending this morning. I have a million things that I want to talk about because you got the Netflix suit, you've got the saving taxpayers, you've got all this, but this was incredibly significant. You announced this today, you made history because you secured a landmark healthcare fraud settlement that is creating The first in the nation ever detransition clinic and it's securing a $10 million from Texas Children's Hospital because they got caught transitioning, mutilating kids. That is absolutely huge.
You're the first in the nation to do it. Thank you for doing it. Congrats on that. Tell us more. This is huge.
Yeah, yeah, we're really exciting. It's a very different thing. It's never been done, as you said, I don't think anywhere in the country. Texas Children's Hospital for years has been trying to transition children. They've had doctors involved in doing both surgery and chemical therapy.
It's obviously a violation of Texas law now, but prior to it being a violation, there was also hidden payments through Medicaid.
So we also uncovered the Medicaid, what we thought was fraudulent and hiding what they were actually doing.
So we got a settlement for $10 million. They are firing all the doctors involved. They have compliance issues now where they have to disclose if they're hiring anybody and they have to get rid of them.
So they can't do this in the future. And then of course we've got the $10 million settlement, some of which will be used for this clinic for the next five years. to detransition people and that cost. Will be absorbed by Texas Children's Hospital. And so people can come in and not have to pay anything to have this done.
So I'm pretty excited about it. It was, I think, a creative solution and it's significant because it's going to last for five years. And beyond, because they won't be able to do this anymore. Yeah, this is, I mean, this, when we found out how many different hospitals around the nation that were doing this, and even after the story broke, they continued to do it while also lying to the public about doing it. This is incredibly significant because, you know, they don't detransitioners, they buy into the, it's not informed consent, first of all, because they don't know what they're getting into.
And then when they realize it too late and they need the help to go try to revert back to as much normalcy as possible, the help isn't there for them. This probably, and this might be an obvious question, could be a blueprint for other states to use going forward in their own areas. No, I think it's a great question, actually, because yes, that's what part of what we're trying to do here is provide other states with the same blueprint to go forward and do the same thing.
So we're hoping that at least. Many of the Republican states will follow suit. And push this trend away from transitioning kids to detransitioning kids. And hopefully, this won't be a problem 10 years down the road because there's been so much, so many states paying attention to it that no one wants to do anymore. In the states that care about this.
Right. I, you're not getting enough credit for this next thing. And this is one of the things I really wanted to just say thank you on because this is one of my big issues. Obviously, the Second Amendment, which you have been, and I have to say, you're the only candidate in the Senate race for the Republican side that's been very consistent, like super 100% consistent on Second Amendment rights.
So I hope people remember that when they go to the ballot box. But you also ran, you also protected taxpayers.
So Texas scorecard reports that you stopped city councils in the state of Texas from illegally raising taxes because this is something we've all been fighting. Tell us about this because apparently you also, there's also the new no-new revenue standard.
So they can't get around this frozen tax hike by trying to inflate the value artificially of everybody's homes also.
So that's that's huge. Tell us about this. Yeah, one of the problems that the legislature addressed is this lack of transparency with cities and raising taxes and taxpayers knowing what the financial statements look like.
So they passed a provision that said within 180 days of the fiscal year ending, these cities are required to. Disclose their financial statements and do an audit so that we can verify that what they're saying is true. It seems relatively reasonable.
Well, we reminded like a thousand cities they need to do it, 130 of them that we've discovered so far. did not do it within the time period allowed. And so the consequence of that. Is that they cannot raise taxes. And so we are we sent those 130 Cities, a letter saying you cannot raise taxes, we are not going to let you raise taxes.
So, at least in those 130 cities, Those taxpayers are not going to have any increase in their taxes. And if that happens, if the cities go ahead and do it. We will be there to try to stop them. That's incredibly significant because a lot of people, a lot of Texans, I don't think realize it's not something that can just be done by the signature of the governor or at the Austin level. I mean, this is something that's determined by every local area, every municipality in terms of their property taxes, etc.
And so, this is incredibly significant to do something because that has been happening in certain areas. I mean, we've heard stories about it. And I know you say that because you've been sending formal letters to those cities, as you said, notified that they're barred from adopting these rates higher than the new revenue rate. The probe is ongoing. Have you had, I mean, I'm sure audit failures?
You've already had those. Yeah, absolutely. That's part of the problem here. We couldn't do anything until this fiscal year. There are obviously cities that weren't doing it.
Most of them weren't doing it forever. This is a new requirement. And we're the ones monitoring it to make sure that they do it. If they don't do it, the consequence is. You cannot increase taxes.
So if you don't do the audit and you don't provide the financial statements, so the financial statements have to be audited.
So we know that they're real, right? You can put out any financial statement you want, but unless they're audited by a third party, That's trustworthy and respected in that community, then it's not worth the paper it's written on. We're talking to Attorney General Ken Paxton, also a Republican candidate for Senate here in the Great Republic of Texas. You announced that you filed suit against Netflix for spying on kids and consumers by illegally collecting user data without their knowledge or consent. I got to be honest, when I first saw this reported, it sounded like the way that the media made it sound like it was this nanny state thing that you were going after Netflix basically because of parental abandonment.
Parents weren't watching what their kids were doing on Netflix, but that's actually not what was happening. They're collecting people's data without even telling them. They have no idea that it's happening and they're sharing it with who knows whom. They're sending it out there. Tell us about this because there are a lot of minors that are using this.
Every interaction apparently is a data point to them. Yeah, so this is a common problem. We sued Google over this. We got a huge almost $1.4 billion settlement. We sued Facebook over this and got a $1.4 billion settlement.
We've sued General Motors over this. We have sued like seven or eight Chinese companies that are collecting data and obviously sending it to the Chinese Communist Party.
So all the TV manufacturers in China and South Korea and other places we've sued. This is another example of Netflix, a company that. Obviously, it has some questionable practices, and we're pretty convinced at this point that they were collecting data and monetizing that without telling the consumer, without telling the children, without telling their parents, we are collecting all this information on you, and then we are selling it, and you're monetizing it. They have an obligation. Especially as a family-friendly company, to disclose that and tell the consumer: here's what we're collecting.
Are you okay with it? Yeah, I mean, that seems so obvious. I mean, apps have to do that on your phone. They send you, like, you get a pop-up and this, can it track your activity on your phone or collect your data? And you can say reject or opt out.
I mean, even apps give you that, but Netflix was not. They were not doing that. I mean, that is a real privacy invasion. That's incredibly upsetting. We're talking with Attorney General Ken Paxton.
You've also are going after a Chinese national. You've been very, very busy. I don't even know how you're running for Senate because you've been so incredibly busy. You're also suing a North Texas company owned by a Chinese national. They were advertising a fake childcare businesses.
To fraudulently obtain H-1B visas. Our mutual friend Sarah Gonzalez was working on this story. This gets into that. I mean, we have the stories about Chinese birthright citizenship, you know, that whole story. And now we have this H-1B visa scam.
Tell us about this and what kind of resolution, or if you've had a resolution yet, do you expect?
So we've been looking at many companies. Sarah's been a great help in exposing some of this, but we've gone after a lot of companies that are fraudulently using the H-1B program, and they're actually not providing any services.
So we've actually gone after, we've investigated, we've sued, in this case, pretty wild. They advertise in China. We had people go look at what was being advertised in China, these H-1B visas, they call them tourism visas, and they get them over here on a tourism visa, and then, but they don't tell us, they don't disclose the United States, they're actually bringing these women to these homes. to have babies and then get birthright citizenship.
So it's completely deceptive. And it's a complete violation of what the H-1B program was set up for. And so we have sued them to stop them from doing it and collect damages for the cost to the state and to this country. This is more prevalent than people realize because we're talking about thousands of babies, correct? Yeah, and this has been going on apparently for 20 years.
We just we just uh Kind of spotted it and then we started doing our research.
So think about that. That's just one company that we became aware of. Obviously, we don't know all of them, but this is a common problem, I think, not just in Texas, but all the United States. This is a, it's like an industry of bringing people over here. And just think of the consequences if.
If these people are sent over by the Chinese government, Chinese Communist Party, To get citizenship. And then over time, they're groomed back into the country. They become political leaders, they become business leaders, and they affect policy decisions in the United States. What can we do? They're citizens.
That's a great point. And from my understanding, because it's been going on for 20 years, one of the, I think it was an analysis of this, not so much an editorial, but they did a deep dive and they were saying that there are going to be basically in the coming the next generation of voters. The babies that have been born in the last 20 years are now reaching voting age, and you're talking about thousands upon thousands upon thousands of these kids that are reaching voting age. Could significantly alter the balance of red and blue because we all know that they're not voting Republican. Yeah, and that's one of my concerns.
We're just now discovering this. The program is being abused for the worst possible reasons, which is another foreign country is sending their people over here to have babies so that they can affect elections both by voting, but also by being involved in potentially political decisions by getting elected. They can get elected. Any, you know, from local politics to, you know, national politics, one of them could be elected president. And, you know, now we've got the Manchurian candidate.
It's a real issue that. I hope this country figures out a way to address because all I can do is work on the margins to stop what I know about. But this may be a massive problem for the country. Until you get into the Senate, because then you could spearhead maybe legislation that tackles this whole ridiculous notion of birthright citizenship. Yep, you're thinking exactly how I'm thinking about it because I can do what I can do here.
But at the federal level, this is a federal program. All I can do is affect how it's affecting Texans in some. Small way, but once I'm there, this is obviously going to be a focus of mine to figure out what's actually going on and try to stop it. Yeah, and that's the change that we need. Attorney General Ken Paxton, as well as Senate candidate, and you can visit kenpaxton.com, check out his website and everything else he's been working hard at.
I hope you do, General. I hope you take some time to rest, like a second at least, please. You're going to work yourself. I know. You know, we got early voting next week, all next week, and then we got May 26, Tuesday.
I got to get through that, and then I'll take a little rest. All right. That sounds good. General, good to have you. God bless you.
Have a good weekend. Thank you. Yeah, you too. Thank you. So we're going to watch all of that.

You can think someone is completely wrong and still not hit them. 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.

Yeah. It's time for Florida Man.
Some of these stories that people send are hysterical. All right, so. Oh my gosh, let me start with this one though. This is the Florida Man with the Diamonds came. Oh, yeah, you remember it.
Florida Man in the Sky with Diamonds. Wait, are those diamonds? Uh okay, let me I try to figure out how to do this headline.
So a Florida man who Mm. Defecated diamonds, that works. once is representing himself in court. And he asks, Am I going to get charged with what's in my stomach?
Okay, how in the world did this happen?
So he. This man Went and stole. Tiffany earrings, diamond earrings, and swallow them. Yeah. Now these earrings are are worth seven hundred and seventy thousand dollars.
It was a jewelry heist. and he swallowed em. and then he had to excrete them out. Mm-hmm. They even have it on CCTV, not the excretion, but him stealing everything.
He's got a lengthy criminal record. His mom couldn't figure out if she wanted to name him Jason or Jonathan, so they went with Jathan. Jathan Gilder. He's 33. He's got a lengthy criminal record.
He rejected a plea deal, waived his right to counsel. He's called the man who pooped diamonds. It's a very strange case.
So he entered the store in a mall last year. He said he was with Orlando Magic. They let him go to the VIP room to view expensive jewelry, and he looked at these earrings and done ate them. He grabbed him, tried to flee the store, ate him. Cops noticed that he, because he ate them when he saw the cops, they noticed him shove something in his mouth, try to swallow it.
He refused medical treatment, would not get an x-ray. Jail scans finally revealed what he had done, and it was the missing earrings.
So he was in a two-week hospital stay under constant police guard while they waited for nature to take its course. You did tell me he took this man two weeks to. Yeah, apparently. And, oh, sorry, there were four stolen earrings, not two. Only two additional unidentified earrings were recovered, but the other, the one, two were with Tiffany's, the one pair.
So even though everything in the world was against this man, evidence, surveillance footage, the Tiffany price tags in his SUV, he decided he was going to defend himself in court. The judge said, okay, you're stupid, but go ahead. You know, the public defender is still available. And so some of his notable quotes include: Am I going to be charged with what's in my stomach? I should have thrown them out the window.
Uh and uh yeah, there you go.
So Okay, my question then becomes A Who gets them? Like who takes them out of the B, they gotta be did you claim them or you just destroy them? And then see if you just clean them, is there a discount? That's disgusting. They're the poop diamonds forever now.

So Seattle area inflation hits 4.9%. outpacing the whole nation as their energy costs soar. Whoa. Who is the ruling party in Seattle? Gosh, who is it?
Is it It's not Republicans. Not libertarians. No. Um Who is it? De d Democrats?
Yeah. It's it's them? Yeah. It's them. It's them.
It literally them. A wrongway teen driver was fifteen. 15 times the legal alcohol limit. Uh if he's under 21, the legal limit is the legal limit is 0.02. How is he not dead just from drinking?
Aren't you? You're just made of alcohol at that point. You're entirely flammable. Bone-crushing hyenas are cleaning up city streets in Ethiopia. Mm.
I'm finding, uh, I think our police departments could get some more, you know, canine kind of help, hyenas. They're helping to clean up over there. Uh, they're being friendly. They're actually a lot larger than you. Yeah.
They're incredibly large.
So they said that they've been going around. They've in fact they've gotten to know some of the people and they take uh uh they've been feeding them strips of meat and then they clean up. They've been helping clean up the the town, the cities, and that seems like real nice. It's nice of those hyenas to do that. Also.
Let's see, we've got a couple of others. I'm going to go back to this because there was a couple that I missed last time.
So there also, there was a woman who went viral for stabbing her hairdresser over a bad haircut. She was arrested in the UK for stripping off and assaulting the police.
Now Kane normally at this point goes, I can fix her. But now he's not saying that. You can't fix this one? No, she's attractive and everything, but I have to admit, I cannot fix this one. I mean, can't do it.
Yeah. She has a long name, too. She literally grabbed a kitchen knife out of her handbag and plunged it into her hairdressers back in Brazil after she complained he ruined her fringe last week. Girl, you don't have to stab them. Gosh, just like slapping his just kidding, don't do that either, but.
I mean, she is Brazilian. She was 27, is 27, arrested on suspicion of wounding. Are you serious? Like, she's on video stabbing the dude. We suspect it may be the woman in the video here.
Who did it? The salon staff had to overpower her, and then they called the police there. And uh her I've in all due respect like her bangs look messed up. I just don't like her hair. I think her hair is too light and it washes her out, and she's wearing a dress that's like really bad for her body type.
So she might want to go and stab her stylist, too. I'm just saying, because it looks really bad. Oh my gosh, we've, I don't know what's happening. Allergy season does not slow down when you are on the move. That's why Kleenex Ultra Soft Tissues are ready whenever sneezes strike.
