Dana Lash with you. I think The Nation was up late last night. Watching everything with America 250, the fight. By the way, find us over at Substack chapter and verse. Like and subscribe, YouTube, Facebook as well.

Watched it last night. Can I really quickly? Because we're going to get into the counter programming, but hold up. I just got to set the stage. May I have Cut 2, please?

Because it's when POTUS and Dana White, Dana's a great name. When they walked out of the Oval Office, I didn't know they were going to walk out of the Oval Office. And The first thing that I realized when they were walking and you can play this 'cause I know it's a B Roll. Like Dana White is just like, whoa. The whole time in his head, all you hear is, wow.

Trump was like, yeah, yeah. It's like another day walking to work. Dana White's just like, wow, I can't. He's like looking at the floor, like, I can't believe him. Looking at the floor, I'm looking at the wall.

Wow. He just looked like. His expression Was it that of a child? that goes in the living room Christmas morning. And they just look at under the tree.

They go. Oh my gosh. Sienna was Here. That was Dana White's expression. Every time the camera cut to Dana White.

He was just. I mean, it was a pretty baller. That was a pretty baller intro. The left was very mad about it, guys. Can I remind everybody what they were doing?

This is cut for. This is what they were doing back in 2020 in front of the White House. This is what the left did. This is back in, yeah, 2020, cut four. Yeah, that's what they did.

Oh, don't forget about the church that they set on fire too, in addition to all of this. Ripping down statues. That's what the left did.

So they were very, the left was just very mad last night, and I kept hearing. Their tax dollars went to this, our tax dollars. Oh, tax dollars, oh, our tax our tax dollars did not go to this. It was all privately funded. Yeah, Dino, but what about the jets that flew overhead?

What about those? Um, you mean the ones that just use that as a training exercise for routine maintenance so that they remain operable? That one? Right? still no good argument against it.

But Dana White also said that. He's uh but this is cut nine. This is, again, just remember this whenever someone tries to sit here and go, oh, our tax dollars paid for that. They didn't, though. This is cut nine.

You don't think there's a chance the President says that was good, let's do it again next year? There I can't afford it. There's no way we can do this again. This was I'll never do the sphere again and we'll never do this again. How much was it?

Because I wrote anywhere from 30 to 60 million. 60 million. Was it? Dude, it was, I mean, it looked great. I can't even imagine the security.

That I can't even imagine, but that was really cool. Everybody came up, but the left was mad, guys.

So, what did the left do? Let's look at cut three. What was the left doing? Oh boy. All you fresh is bound to lose You're bound to lose.

You fascist, bound to lose. Hey, there, all you fascists. Let me put you straight. When you come for the rest of us, we'll fight you at the gate and you will lose, you fascist battalion. Oh, golly, we all died.

We're all dead from cringe. The United States of America had a good run until the left decided to murder everybody with a level of cringe that was just non-measurable by any device. Good heavens That was part of their Rise Up Sing gout. Uh Rise up in gout. Rise up in gout.

It was the name of their Same. Kane, did you watch any of the Rise Up in Gout? Yeah. I did not. That's what it was called.

Rise up in gout. Rise up and out. No, in gout. Like they have gout. Like what Henry VIII had that made them all smelly and blah.

Okay. Him. That's what the that's I'm assuming. They had. Was anyone moved by their performance, you think?

I actually forgot that they were doing their dumb little lefty thing. I was not even paying attention to it. I was kind of watching the fight. I was trying to read anything about Iran to get ready for today. Um and then um I uh happened to see it on social media, it flew past.

Like what is this? Rise up in gout? And I've never seen, and I tweeted this, do we have the thing that I tweeted? Because I tweeted a video where I don't know how many, there are more people on stage than Parliament Funkadelic. Uh I There were a million people on stage, and every hang on, hang on, I'm gonna pull this up because I swear someone had spoons.

I could be wrong. Wait, I want to make sure I'm right before I say that because it sounds ridiculous, but also it could be true. You might be right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let me let me pull this up, let me pull this up, because we have this.

Yeah, this is. I tweeted this earlier. Is this 11? I'm trying to look at the. Oh, yeah, here, get 11 ready because I'm trying to pull up.

I'm trying to get this. I swear to you, somebody had. spoons at this thing at one point. Their Rise Up in Gout event. I know.

Yeah, it's what it's called. This is cut 11. I I don't even know what's happening. Go ahead, check go ahead and play this. Mm.

No one is getting left behind this time. No one is getting less. Oh. Not this time, no one is getting left behind. Who is that freak?

How do we get there? Together or never I can see that gut thing makes sense. Time. Scarred. Mm-hmm.

How is it? that so many people don't have rhythm.

Okay, Cain. First off. I need Oh, they left the They had the lyrics up on the stage.

So basically, it was like a really bad variety show. My cousins and I put on better skits for our family at Thanksgiving than this.

So you had all the. Oh my gosh, there's a guy.

Okay, I think I was right. I think there's literally somebody with spoons in the back. See a couple of little drums. A keyboard? Does this woman have a kazoo?

Is that what that is? I think somebody hasn't then there's one woman who sounds like she swallowed a dog squeak toy, like a squeaker toy. And they had Ms. Rachel there. Why is there a guy in a reflective vest?

I'm Oh my gosh, they had all these dorks get up on stage. These are the freaks. Look at this guy. Why is she wearing a bedsheet? And why is why does that one guy have too many accessories on?

No one is getting left behind.

Okay, so. The grammar aside. from their horrible lyrics. Good heavens, could we do more past tense and be verbs? I mean, could we do that more?

I mean, you know, you could have just... You could have made that more actionable. I I don't know. This is what they did to counter the Rise Up Sing gout. I guess they were it was about people with gout that got together and did I don't know.

I think, yeah, it's rise ups in gout. Rise up in gout. Rise ups in gout. Rise ups in gout. That's right.

That's what it is. Uh I think that the goal Was to be off key. Mm-hmm. And off beat. Success.

Yeah. We it's what I don't think he could write that. to be that funny. Can you just put it up one more time? Because I cannot believe that they actually thought that they were going to, we're going to compete.

Here's rise up, sing out. Who is the lady? Just get it. Who is that? I'm the sky.

Somebody there's a goat on stage. Get it. Get the goat. Like the actionable animal, it's gonna start eating parts of the stage. But for real, who is the lady with the vibrato on crack?

Yeah. Yeah. Oh my gosh. If I was a leftist and I was watching that, I would cease being a leftist just because I wouldn't want to be associated to the cringe.

Now they didn't get together and they didn't, you know, do any that was it. They got mad. At what they did at the White House. Do you know Teddy Roosevelt apparently used to have private boxing matches? And he actually had his eye permanently messed up from one of those?

Yeah. I mean, there's all kinds of stories of crazy stuff happening, but they all put it back and it looks very nice. This was a great thing to celebrate. And also Because MMA, much like soccer, is a very international sport. This, I think, really puts it on the map.

Have you seen there's been some Middle Eastern countries that have been trying to they've been hosting UFC events, et cetera. I think it makes sense that there's one right there in the United States of America. You got POTUS. The only way that you could have made it more badass is if POTUS literally fought somebody himself. walking out there.

You know. He was just all nonchalant walking out, and Dana White, meanwhile, was all wide-eyed wonderment. It was funny. But um It uh I mean, a massively well-done event. The flyover.

Dude, they had an eagle. There was like literally a falconer there with their eagle. Is it? Wait, are you still a falconer if it's an eagle? Is it an eagle nerve?

I don't even know what the bird people don't kill me. I swear to you, don't kill me. Right? Does it change? Is it a hawker?

I mean, if it's a raptor-urr? I'm not Googling it because I'm live on air, but I'm just curious. I think a raptor-uhr sounds better. The chat, by the way, said that they insisted on getting left behind. Rise ups and gout.

They don't, they were hearing the rise-ups and gouts saying no one's going to be left behind. Please leave us behind. Don't take us on that, whatever trip you're on. Oh my gosh. But that's what the left did because they thought people are going to want to watch this.

They're not going to want to watch All American fights where you have skilled mar mixed martial artists. Good heavens. But it looked like it was a very like nice event, right? Nice event. There was no issue.

There were no issues. Apparently, Sean Strickland tried to sneak in, and then everyone lied and said that he was being arrested. The podcast was lying and saying, oh, no, he was arrested because he criticized Israel. And he, no, he tried to sneak in and cause a commotion. And that's why they didn't arrest him, they detained him and escorted him out.

Golly, you just sensitive princesses. My word.

So I don't know. It's um it look I mean, it it was they had great fights, fast finishes. I mean, I don't have any complaints. The b oh my gosh, the live band was ridiculous. Can they play all the things?

They were amazing. It was just really, really well produced and well done event. Right there in the US. And I mean, it showcased everything. Vladimir Putin could never do anything like that.

You're going to see podcasts. Where was Podcast to stand on this last night? All these cosplayers, where were they at?

Nowhere. Did you notice that? They were s silent. 'Cause I guess 'cause Putin didn't do it. Mm.

So it was, yeah, that was the counter-programming. I had to share that with you because I had to watch it.

So I'm sharing the pain, and I'm not sorry. But uh good event. And in the meantime, all under the shadow of this reported deal. That no one knows about. With Israel or uh Iran, sorry, because over the weekend there was a lot of uh A lot of criticism from the Iran wing.

They were mad because Israel was defending itself against Hezbollah, again, who launched rockets again from southern Lebanon, again. And Israel had to respond in kind again. And then everyone's like, why are you so mean, Israel? Why don't Hezbollah just stopped firing rockets. that simple.

You either believe in self-defense or you don't.

So, I don't know. We're going to dive into some of this. And I know I'm saying I don't know a lot right now because the MOU know there is no leak. There's shockingly, there hasn't been a leak. There's no leak.

There's no anything that we know. The stuff that you're reading about.

now is from Iran. don't know how legitimate that is, but the Vice President kind of complicated matters. I think it was a bad showing for him. And we'll talk a little bit more about that. But what is and we're also going to look at this MOU.

Is there a purpose? Is it supposed to trigger something more broad? I don't know. Don't know. There's a lot we don't know.

Uncertainty. This is why you buy gold. All right, we got to move because we got headlines on the way as we do.

So our partners who bring you the program. Relief Factor.

Now, I know a little bit about this personally because my husband and I were both jocks in school. And my husband did hockey and football, and he had a knee surgery, and it's all crazy.

Everything yesterday, the big fight, and you know he was up late. I mean, it was a party at your house. With the whole country. POTUS was up late. I don't know if he got sleep, but now he's up going with G7, and he had to go meet with Emmanuel Macron.

Cane. The man was slapped on the plane by his wife Prégette. All because he was apparently sixteen. Whis Shoot. younger staffers.

I mean, that's the rumor anyway. Not because she's a man. She hits like a woman. Anyway.

So now he's There they have G7. And they are I mean, I'm sure the big topic is going to be Iran. We don't know anything about this deal. What we do know, the only things that we know, is that The Iranian, it was the Iranian mayor news agency, they were the ones who put out. Again.

A 14-point MOU that they're saying. That's the MOU. This is the Memorandum of Understanding. It's not a treaty. It's not an official formalized anything, it's just this.

And The way that it's being presented, and Pakistan immediately, who Pakistan is so desperate with their Pick-me energy to be involved in something that does not include them. They're willing to get involved and make problems. Pakistan is the one that made a problem. Last time, because they insisted that Lebanon, they were the ones who first put out that Lebanon was involved in any kind of ceasefire, which it wasn't, that was Iran's insistence.

So Pakistan and Iran have been Pushing these fourteen points. And the 14 points, if you were to just look at them, look bad. Look bad. I mean It looks like it acknowledges that Iran has the right to enrich uranium. Two.

to a certain extent.

So, the way that they published, this is what they published: they said $12 billion of Iran's frozen funds. to be released before negotiations begin. with another $12 billion during the 60-day final negotiation window. oil and petrochemical sanctions suspended. full naval blockade lifted within thirty days.

The U. S. commits to non-interference in Iranian affairs, withdrawal of forces from around Iran and no new sanctions, or force deployments during negotiations. They also add that an immediate ceasefire is required on all fronts, including Lebanon. The Strait of Wormuz reopens within 30 days under Iranian agreements.

The uh uh Under or sorry, under Iranian arrangements. Iran reaffirms its NPT commitment not to produce nuclear weapons. A sixty-day window is set to negotiate a final deal covering nuclear issues and full sanctions removal. They add the U.S. and allies must also present reconstruction plans worth at least 300 billion.

Iran's missile program and support for resistance groups are removed from the agenda entirely.

Now, I'm going to highlight that really quickly. Let's just remember, let me read it again. Iran's missile program. and support for resistance groups. removed and from the agenda entirely.

Would go back. What was the one, two, three, four, the fifth point on this? An immediate ceasefire on all fronts, including Lebanon.

So they're still going to support Hezbollah. And they want to make it to where The now Israel is not party to this. That's the thing. They want this to include Israel not being able to defend itself against Hezbollah, which keeps firing rockets at it from southern Lebanon. That's where they're headquartered.

That's where they've always been headquartered.

Sorry, Nepo Baby couldn't make it in the CIA, Tucker Katarlson, but that's not accurate to say that Hezbollah has never been in Lebanon. It's one of the most geopolitical ignorant things I've ever heard in my life.

So They're still going to fund them, and they want them to be able to shoot off rockets, but they don't want anyone to be able to defend against them. For the final two, it says: no negotiations begin until the $12 billion is released, oil sanctions suspended, blockade lifted. And they're going to have a supervisory mechanism to oversee implementation with any final agreement approved by the UN Security Council resolution. The UN. Remember how we were supposed to be able to go in and look at some of their stuff?

And they never let anybody in. Hmm.

Now, the White House, again, they have not confirmed any of this. They have not said that it's accurate, and it shouldn't be accurate because if this was accurate, Then We just lost midterms. If it's if it was accurate. Trump would have tanked his own legacy. If it's accurate.

Now this is Iranian media. But here's where I have. A big problem, the money. And one of my friends made a a comparison to the argument with Planned Parenthood about fungibility. Everybody understands, like with Planned Parenthood, you give Planned Parenthood money, then Planned Parenthood could say that, well, that money that you're giving us will not be used for abortions.

But again, money is fungible. It allowed other funds to be freed up that they could use for abortions.

So it doesn't matter because you facilitated the. Use of additional funds for that. That's the whole point. That's the same thing with Iran. And then you add the vice president go on CVS.

And he was asked about this. He was asked. about this. $300 billion in reconstruction aid. And this was 14, cut 14.

I want to play. I know we played it first hour, but I want to play this again. Listen. Walk through some of this. The Iranians are saying that they're going to have access to a $300 billion reconstruction fund.

True or false?

Well, Ed, that's the sort of thing they could have access to, funded by the Gulf Coast Coalition, so long as they honor their end of the obligation. I think that one of the things you're going to see, Ed, and people have to be skeptical of this, is that the hardliners in the Iranian system will overemphasize the benefits that Iran gets while underemphasizing all the things that they have to concede and all the things they have to provide in order to get these benefits.

So, we absolutely are open to the Gulf Coast countries investing in the reconstruction of Iran, but only if Iran ends their nuclear program, ends their enriched stockpile of material, and is really open to an inspections and enforcement regime that gives the American people confidence they're never going to have a nuclear weapon.

So, I think the dance you're going to see, Ed, which is going to be interesting, is the Iranian media, especially the hardline media, they're going to talk a lot about what they get without talking about what they give. It's important for all of us to correct that record. Yeah. I mean the way that he said it.

So the $300 billion fund exists. That's what I'm hearing. Right. It's like going ahead and saying, let's do the Marshall Plan while the Nazis are in charge. Is that correct?

Because he didn't say all he had to do was say no, that's categorically false. But he didn't say that. And he said that when things have been false.

So I just want to point that out.

So that actually exists. The $300 billion fund exists.

Okay. Not good. Not good. So the what What we needed was No, you don't, we're not rebuilding you. We don't rebuild unless we have complete.

And total surrender. And I gotta say, I'm a little bit less than impressed with the VP right now. I don't, honestly, I kind of wonder: is Trump just putting him out there to have him fall? On his face? That was not a good answer because you confirmed that the $300 billion fund exists.

and that they're going to get some sort of restitution. The regime has to go. The IRGC is apparently in charge. But Are they that different from the Ayatollah? That's the big question.

And why do we not have? Why is it we're told to celebrate over a deal of which we know nothing? I'm neither going to condemn it nor celebrate it until I know what's in it. And on certain, I know that the administration is saying, trust us, bro. We have been.

But now this is a different level. You're saying trust us. on a memorandum of understanding that you haven't seen. Before we go. You need to trust us and you need to show us the particulars.

That's what we need to see. We need total removal of all enrichment material. That's got to go. Their nuclear program's got to go. Freeze it.

I've been hearing about inspections our whole life. They've never gone with any of this. This is just more of the same that we've dealt with for 40 years. Sanctions relief.

Well, they would have to stop all funding of Hezbollah and Hamas. All funding, which Considering that they're trying to get elections going again, I'm curious as to how that's going to work with Iran funding Hamas and whether or not they're interested in stopping it. I'll get to that. They need to suspend their missile program entirely. They have to be hands off in the Strait of Ormuz.

No discussion. Tehran doesn't get to demand that Lebanon is part of anything. Lebanon is its own separate country, as evidenced. By Lebanon going out and saying we're our own separate country, don't include us in these things, we are not party to it. But this is Iran trying to protect Hezbollah.

That's what it is. What's going to be bad? If we are agreeing to a financial bailout of Iran, without any kind of commitment. on the dust, on the nuclear material. No way to enforce it either.

There's no mechanism for inspections, clear. inspections, clear enforcement. And if we don't include a complete end to all of the funding for their terror proxies. I mean, that's it. You're not going to get to a good deal if this first step to a deal is bad.

That's not going to happen. And it can only be considered good if the United States walks away with the leverage. This is negotiation 101. That's why I'm like, is Trump putting bans out here just to. Fall, I don't know.

I've got some questions.

So I There's a lot of questions that remain about this. They said, what, 24 to 48 hours?

Well, guys, it's been 24 hours since. It was announced. And I don't want to hear the spin. The way that Vance talks about it, it seems like Iran understands now the importance of negotiation. That spin.

That's cluelessness. We have to have complete And total. Unconditional surrender. You know, it kind of bothered me. I saw, I put this in Slack, and I think we have it.

This was a. Um when POTUS or Vice President was talking about uh World War Two. And he was talking about negotiations and that, well, Do we we have this I had it in Slack? We Have World War II, which was unconditional, you know, the reason the way that World War II ended was unconditional surrender. And he was saying that we had negotiated World War II.

I don't see it on the list, so we're gonna have to go pet we have this? No, I did not hear it at all. Oh money. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, let's actually, well, we're going to move because we don't have it.

The MOU, the Memorandum of Understanding, nobody knows the details, but I'm not encouraged by after I saw Vice President Vance fall on his face trying to spin this on television, wherein he was saying that Uh yeah, there's a $300 billion fund. But, you know, there's going to be performance-based. That's not no.

That, no, that's. not correct at all. Uh, which were, and I kind of wanted to play this because I called for this earlier, this little quick sound bite. This was the same weekend where he was also talking about how World War II Came to a close. It was not with negotiation, it was with unconditional surrender.

There wasn't any kind of, there wasn't a negotiation until after there was unconditional surrender, and then it wasn't a negotiation, it was an agreement. Listen to this. Kristen, this is how wars ultimately get settled. If you go back to World War II, if you go back to World War I, if you go back to every major conflict in human history, they all end with some kind of negotiation.

Well, World War II did not end with a negotiation, it ended with. uh two bombs being dropped on uh Hiroshima and uh Hiroshima Nagasaki. And my grandfather was on the USS Missouri, served on the Alabama. He was invited. We think because he was real tall and they wanted to do the SYOP of all the tall sailors when the Japanese delegation boarded the Mighty Mo.

He was on board the USS Missouri when that treaty, when the or not treaty, but when the agreement was signed, when the declaration, when the surrender was made official. And in Germany, the same thing. They were bombed into complete. subjugation, the Nazi regime.

So there wasn't a negotiation that happened. Uh that was unconditional surrender. Very different. And that's something that needs to be understood, especially if we're dealing with. this terrorist regime.

that has been a ghost in all of our lives forever. There's a very big difference.

So, I'm not, I haven't been impressed with Vance's spin on this, and he did not do a lot to make people encouraged in it. It was a bad showing on CBS when he was speaking to it. Uh earlier. We're going to talk more about that with Stephen Yates coming up. I got to get to this.

I got to get to this story.

Now I'm going to warn you, it's a censored video. But just so you can see how insane it is.

So this was in Brazil. When We first saw this. I thought it was AI. Kane, I think you thought it was AI. Yeah.

No one thought this was real. What ended up happening is a young Brazilian woman, they were going. to they were on they were going to bungee jump on this like huge bridge. And uh her name was Maria Freitas, and she 21. a hundred and thirty foot skeleton bridge in Sao Paulo.

Now There's multiple videos. From multiple different angles, and you see. The people that are lifting her up, and she's got her arms out, and they're lifting her up, and her arms are out, and Like she's, you know, a plane. And they're gonna lift her up and throw her out. They have three people underneath her.

Hold right, two or three. Holding her up, and then one guy who's like standing in the back, doing I don't know what. All of them, you can see they have these safety ropes on. They proceed then to throw her off, presumably for a bungee jump. Off the bridge.

And apparently As she was going down, In that split second, it became very obvious. That She did not have. a bungee cord on. I'm not making this up. No, it's censored video.

We're not going to show you the moment where she, but. You No one, you don't believe it until you see it because it sounds insane, right? Go if you have the. It sounds Insane. And there were a bunch of people on this bridge with her, and you can see they're looking her up.

We're not going to show you the aftermath, but they all have their harnesses on. Where's and she has nothing? And then when it goes back, you see the rope on the floor. Apparently, that's supposed to be her rope. Oh.

Oh my gosh Now a news story is out. showing that there was a nurse who was there on the bridge. And She tried to get to the young victim. She said the girl was still alive. After she was thrown off the bridge with no rope.

And she said it was really difficult to get down there. Razi Adiaz, she said it was very difficult to get down there because it was a very steep slope and they only had one rope to climb down. And she said it was all covered in mud. She was like, you know, we had to get down there. It was very slow, but she got down there with her.

And She said that the victim was breathing heavily and had a weak pulse. She was trying to give her life-saving care. And She said, I was talking to her. I have a habit of joking and saying nobody dies on my shift. And I told her, I said, nobody's dying on my shift, even though I wasn't on my shift there.

And um she I I I just can't I just can't. It's just She said that the There were two, Brazil's military police told local media that two men fled the scene. after they realized what happened. What they and they were located in a wooded wooded area by nearby by helicopter. They had the Sao Paulo public.

Security Secretariat then confirmed that six people were taken in for questioning. And then three men were charged with homicide with eventual. intent. That's the way that they classify their charges. The suspect said that there was a blackout during setup, and they can't remember.

Where or when the failure in attaching the rope occurred, or who should have put them on? I I it just shocked. Just this is just shocking.

So apparently there's been other one other fatal Accident at that bridge. It was in 2024. When a female cyclist was riding across, she lost control and plunged to the side of her death. Can I? Can you saw that bridge right?

Okay, the wall I don't think it came up waist high. Right? Like it would be very easy to just Yeah. I don't know. That sounds terrifying.

I also don't think that that bridge was even high enough for any sort of effective bungee jumping, anyway. It's almost like. It was only a 40 or 50 foot like sort of drop. I I don't know. This is horrific.

Yeah, I not being a bungee jump expert. But still They I'm and so she lay there until they got to her and They said that the mayor of the area said they were trying to establish who's responsible for the. Why was that an argument? It's the whole company. They were trying to say that maybe the company was like kind of a rogue operator that was one.

Um accusation or one allegation. They had the trio identified: a 42-year-old, a 32-year-old, and a 27-year-old. I just cannot. I'm just shocked by this. This is crazy.

Kane, this is crazy. I just did not, because the video, when I first saw it, because I do not know Portuguese. And it came up, and it was a Portuguese account, so I didn't really know what I was seeing. And they threw her off, and I noticed as she was going over, I'm like, maybe that, maybe the cord is just really thin that I can't see it. Because the first that I saw was the side angle, like pretty far away down the bridge.

So I thought maybe I just didn't see the cord because it was too thin. That wasn't the case. They didn't have one on her. Can't even imagine. And obviously she did not make it.

I mean, she had catastrophic injuries. And they've already had her funeral. She was buried on Sunday in Sao Paula. Her mother was just. you know, enraged understandably.

And they had this bridge blocked off, but apparently the company That was Jewish. Went up there anyway. See, most of these companies they have something worked out with local law enforcement. They have I have an uncle that liked to bungee jump They have something that works that's worked out with local law enforcement and parks, and if parks and rec, if it's in a state park area. All of that.

So I, it, it, it's just, I can't even, I would never bungee jump. I don't do that. I don't do things that the Lord didn't mean for us to do, right? I don't roller skate. Because God would have put wheels on our feet if we wanted us to do that.

I don't do that. Right? I don't yeet myself off of tall objects. I'm not going to yeet myself out of a plane. I don't camp 'cause we invented the house.

Love going out in nature. I'll be out in nature all day. But I want a hot bath. And I need to have A C. That's what I want.

So we invented the house. I'm not going to go disrespect our ancestors that got to this point to do this for us. By like, no, I don't want that. I'm going to go live in the wild. I'm not doing that.

Anyway, long story short, I would never do this. Would you ever bungee jump in? No. not anymore. There was a time- There was a time when I was younger.

Where I thought I wanted to. I never did it. And now I'm where I'm at age-wise. I have no desire whatsoever to do it. Yeah.

No desire at all. None. Oh, I feel so bad. And I feel bad for that sweet nurse. She likes cut her hand on her arm trying to just scramble down there.

And uh to know What you're dealing with, and to have that girl still be alive briefly. and cognizant she knew what had happened. Can you imagine that is your last moment? That's going to haunt that nurse forever. God love her.

I mean, I know she's hardcore. She probably has seen a lot of stuff in the ER because apparently she works in ER.

So she's seen some stuff. But this is like a different level. You know what I mean? That's, oh gosh, I can't even never. I would know I would never bungee jump, I would never do any of that.

But Dana, would you drive a race car? No, that's different. You see, it's very different. I can't tell you exactly why in a way that best suits my argument right now, but it's different. You're in control.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm just saying it's different.

So I gotta t i a couple of other things. Uh people are mad at Gwyneth Paltrow. Because remember, Gwyneth Paltrow, let me pull this story up. is um She did. an ad for this Israeli development I think it's in Tel Aviv, isn't it?

So she did this ad for this development company. And and like imagine it was one of those ads, like imagine you're living here and this is your apartment or whatever. And The left got really mad at her. And of all people, You would never know it at Daily Mail not introduced her this way, and I happen to love this woman. Here's the headline.

Colin Firth's ex-wife launches an extraordinary attack on Gwyneth Paldrow and cancels Stupid Star's planned visit to her Italian farm after her disgusting advert for luxury Israeli housing development.

Okay, that headline's so long.

So Colin Firth's ex-wife Livia. Is I guess she has an Italian farm and Gwyneth Paltrow was gonna go there.

So she tweeted out with her straw hair: literally get some conditioner. Stop, full stop. Girl, her hair looks like a goat is gonna eat of it. Get some conditioner, you get you a little more rocking oil, you know, like in the palm. Get it all up.

Get it on them ends because damn. You're gonna catch it on fire if it ain't in the net when you're at the stove.

So back to this. She tweeted out: quote: I never liked or approved of cancel culture, but in the case of Gwyneth Paltrow, it's the least we can do.

So she still goes as Livia Firth. Let me do, and everybody knows Colin Firth. He was Mr. Bennett in the BBC's adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. He was in The Kingsmen.

He's been in a number of things. His wife cheated on him for years. His wife Livia screwed around on him like some Jezebel for years. Then she lied and said that the guy she was screwing, her paramour. was a stalker.

To hide the fact that she had been having this multiple years-long affair.

So then it came out because he took her to court. For Samir and him. And it came out that no, he wasn't a stalker. It's really hard to stalk someone when they keep showing up in your bed. It's so weird.

And so. I really don't trust. Um Any fornicator like this. She doesn't have good judgment, and this just goes to show up. By the way, who is this woman to say she's going to cancel Gwyneth Paldrow?

Literally, nobody knows you except that you make headlines because you cannot keep your legs closed. That is the only reason that anybody knows Colin Firth's wife. That's a reason, and nobody knows her except for Colin Firth. That she has to be introduced as his ex-wife because nobody knows who she is. People know who Gwyneth Paltrow is, but nobody knows who this lady is.

Keep your knees kissing, Livia, and your lips closed. Double entendre. We got more on the way. As we move, our partners that help bring you the program. 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. 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. Message and data rates may apply. You clocked out just as hunger clocked in.

Prices, participation, delivery area, and charges may vary. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. And we are at the bottom of this. Third hour.

Good to be with you. You can follow along, watch the, you can either listen terrestrially, or you can also watch the simulcast as well. YouTube, Facebook, all that good stuff. Can we get monitor, please? We got all of that.

And of course, Uh no, I need to see our guests in the camera. Thank you. We've got all of that and more. In the meantime, we've been talking about this Iran deal, right? And the memorandum of understanding that doesn't exist.

oil does exist. We just haven't seen it. And we're in a very trust but verify. uh situation And we, I'm not going to go off on the Iranian release, what the Iranian regime has released. It's this 14-point plan.

We went over it because. If that were the If that actually were the case, that would be a complete betrayal. And I can't imagine POTUS agreeing to that.

So, again, I just want to remind people: the Iranians have never been interested in a deal, ever. They've never been interested in a deal. They have no interest. I don't think they have interest in signing this. I think anything that they could do to mess it up, they would.

But we don't know because we haven't seen anything.

So I caution people. To go off of just what is being circulated. And I get it. I don't think the vice president helped himself when he went on CBS and he was asked point blank whether or not there was a 300 or how much was it 300 billion? fund to basically rebuild Iran.

Freeze 24 and unfreeze even more. And the vice president did not say that that was a categorical lie. And then he tried to kind of skirt around the issue. And I thought, if that was the first showing for how this is going to be dealt with with him, it's bad. It is bad.

I don't think he did the president any favors at all whatsoever. If anything, I think his answer and the way he handled the CBS interview made it harder.

So, we've got this and more. Our friend Stephen Yates, and we're having a little bit of technical difficulty here on the program.

So, I cannot see Mr. Yates this week, and that's so sad. We've got him. He's joining us now. It's good to see you, my good friend.

Everybody knows Stephen Yates, Senior Research Fellow at the Heritage Foundation at Steve Yates on X. I wanted to get your.

sort of thoughts on how This is kind of developing. And none of it, again, nobody knows what the MOU is. We haven't seen any of it.

So we can only kind of, you know, go off on the answer that the vice president kind of gave and previous history with how POTUS has dealt with things before. With Venezuela, he was really hardcore, Syria, really hardcore. What do you make of all of this? Is it weird to you? Because you've worked in two presidential administrations, previously the Trump administration, also.

Foreign policy is your jam. Is it unusual to wait this long to get details like this?

Well, Dana, I would double down on what you're saying about exercise caution. I mean, I think that's one of the hardcore lessons of trying to track things in the era of Trump and especially Trump 2.0. Facts on the ground that really, really matter are likely going to take longer than a news cycle or two. And we have like six news cycles per day.

So we're going to, I think extreme caution on interpretation is warranted. Also, I have to say that there's just been so much loosey-goosey talk from people who hate the live-in day lights out of the president that you got to try to filter the signal from the noise in a lot of this too. And it's hard because it's everywhere, everywhere, everywhere. But to me, I think when you're dealing with hard partners or hard counterparts, I should say, like the Iranians, who have decades-long track record of lying, doing truly evil things, you can't necessarily believe at your first shot at any form of a deal, you're going to get. Get everything right, that they're not going to cheat, that you're going to be able to work everything out smoothly over time.

I think the president has set up a lot of the factors far, far better than his predecessors did with regard to Iran, in that we did really grease a lot of their capabilities in the last few months.

So we didn't knock them necessarily back to the Stone Age, but they're well out of the information age in a lot of this stuff. And when it comes to the nuclear materials, What's left is really remnant particles buried, and yes, there needs to be a way to secure and remove those things. but it's not like a today priority. Getting the straits open. That's a yesterday priority.

And so if they're using a little bit of fudge to get other things moving that haven't moved yet, that might be what we're watching. But I'm not going to take any guff from anyone associated with the Biden team, given that they gave lots of money and lots of relief up front, and not after knocking the teeth back into their intestines, but glazing them with years of negotiations and then giving them the cash before performance. At least the current administration is saying whatever the funds are that may or may not come, that's after performance of promised commitments.

Now, none of this makes me happy. None of this makes me think, oh, problem solved. But I think there has been a little bit of an instant leap into doomerism on this. And even if we just packed up, shop and quit at the moment, we're still far better off than we were three months ago or six months ago and better than any administration before. But that's a low bar.

Yeah. Well, it's so weird to me. We're talking to our friend Stephen Yates, foreign policy expert, China, his particular area of expertise, and he served in two different political or two different presidential administrations. Is Pakistan's Pick me energy in all of this because they. Correct me if I'm wrong.

My perspective was that they screwed up things the first time around because they insisted that Lebanon somehow they were the ones that inserted the language that Lebanon was part of the ceasefire. Lebanon had to come out and say, not us, we're not part of this. And they're involved in this again. Why are they acting like such big players in this?

Well, you're not wrong. This is a real head scratcher for me. I mean, ever since Pakistan was the back door into the People's Republic of China for Henry Kissinger, I have not exactly had a warm place in my heart for that geography. And ever since they were pretty hot and heavy with those who sought to hit us on 9-11 and kept Osama bin Laden safe for quite a long time, and I don't think that I have a warm spot in my heart for them there either. And maybe it's too long ago, but people seem to forget there was this AQCon proliferation network that let the nuclear genie out of the bottle with Chinese instructions on DVDs and other kinds of technologies no longer used, but allowing the nuclear capabilities to proliferate pretty widely to North Korea and elsewhere.

This is not exactly a trustworthy state, in my view.

Now they are a neighbor to Iran, and there was conspicuously a military flare-up on that front right before we went in. through the other front.

So, maybe there was some kind of strategic collaboration between the United States and our Arab allies and Pakistan at the beginning of the major military operations against Iran to draw attention away. But in terms of negotiations, the role of Qatar and Pakistan in this. Is a head scratcher to me. Those are not the pillars around Middle East strategy that I would build. But basically, if this all works, I will not be throwing stones at anybody who did it beyond my logic.

Right, true. I completely agree. And I'm glad that you felt, I kept thinking, is there a, what am I missing? Why are they involved? And I'm glad that you, I mean, if anybody would know, it'd be you.

I mean, one more point on this, and then I want to move to some other topics. I mean, obviously, there are several big things that. Are no compromise in this. You know, the uranium enrichment, control of the strait as well, the suspension of their missile program, all of those things. The $300 billion part where Iran is apparently demanding that we help rebuild after this.

And when the vice president was asked about it, and he just sort of said, well, he didn't say no, he didn't say that it didn't exist. He tried to kind of move around it.

Okay. Is that going to be coming from other Arab nations, or is that money that's going to be coming from the United States? Because I don't feel like he did a good enough job answering that.

Well, I'll do my best to clean up on aisle nine. No one elected me to do it, and I make no promise. I don't mean to put you in a weird spot, but you're the best person to ask on this. But also, just quickly, on that nuclear enrichment capability, I mean, basically, that is one of the biggest differences between the Obama deal and whatever this is. We will not be leaving them with the ability to enrich.

And the Obama deal did leave them with the ability to enrich, and they sure did proceed with that ability. And when it comes to the straight, whatever our pullback, whenever and however it happens, occurs, we can also come back at almost any time if need be. And, you know, so we don't have to, we have bases that are in the region all the time. Maybe that's a contestable proposition to some, but I don't hear any serious move to withdraw them. And so there's maintenance that we can do on both of those fronts anytime we need to.

On these funds, my understanding is that none of it would come. From the United States, that this is a matter of if the Gulf states that want this peace and want this opening and wanted this diplomacy are so inclined that they would be happy to work with a peaceful, possibly leadership-transitioned Iran to help build up some kind of coast prosperity.

Now, there's deep, deep rivalries between the theocrats in Iran and the rest of the broader Middle East. That's for them to sort out for most Americans. But I don't think that this was intended to imply that this would be American-held funds. Maybe that would involve some frozen accounts, but that would have to be coming way after there's a proven opening of the Straits without interruption for a substantial period of time, proven cooperation on dealing with the nuclear stuff after the fact, and no reconstitution of the military threat. And so I don't know what that timing would be.

I vote for 47 years since it took 47 years of crap city with them to get where we are now. But others might have a shorter timeline. Yeah, there you go. Our friend Stevie Nates joining us. I wanted to ask too.

This so Taiwan has launched a website for Chinese citizens where They can submit intelligence information. It was developed based on the experience, according to Foreign Press. Of Intel agencies of the US, UK, Israel, and other countries. What is this about?

Well, I don't know how many of the audience caught what the CIA was doing recently. And there was a fairly sophisticated video that was produced and went on to various social platforms, some that are technically blocked inside China.

So, if you were on X, you could see the CIA recruitment video that was inviting Chinese citizens, if they would like to cooperate with the United States, if they're witnessing corruption, if they would rather not have a conflict with us or our allies, to get in touch.

So, basically, after the Chinese, you know, I'd say about a decade or ago, killed a lot of our human sources inside China, there's an active effort to recruit new sources. And we're not starting from zero, but it was a fairly sophisticated effort. And I think what the Taiwan authorities are doing is somewhat modeling that.

Now, they've done a lot to be able to track what's being done inside their geography to undermine them. There's a lot we should learn from that because, you know, we have some mayors that are compromised, we have some campaigns. That get compromised. We might have a fang fang or two hanging around in different leadership circles. There was a chauffeur for the late chair of the intelligence committee in the Senate.

So, we could learn a thing or two about tracking these things and inviting the Chinese to participate in that is a clever thing to do. I think that is super smart. When I first saw this, I'm immediately thinking, What purpose is this for? I just think of Intel government, but I like that, like being able to inform on the CCP. That's anything that we can do.

I like to see them be proactive in this. Our very good friend, Stephen Yates. You can find him on X at Steve Yates. Always a pleasure.

So, appreciate your perspective bringing everything down so we can all get it. We appreciate you, my friend. Have a good week. Thank you, Dana. Take good care.

Gene Shallot is dead. This is one of those things where it's not somebody that you really think about ever, but then when they pass away, you're like, oh my gosh, that's, you remember that person from your childhood, the legendary film critic.

He had a mustache, a mustache like a walrus, and he was very, very joyful and bubbly. But he was a great film critic, but he's passed away. They didn't release Cause of Death, but he was fairly old. Oh, the Cause of Death was probably old age. I don't think we're gonna have to sit here and try to figure that out too dang much.

The press is like, we just said there wasn't a cause of death that was released. It's probably, I'm just saying, old age. Just gonna put it out there. Let's see. That is sad, though.

I didn't realize it was 100. Really? That's crazy. Former Senator Mitch McConnell's in the hospital, and I guarantee you it wasn't because he was beaten up by gang members in his bathroom like Harry Reid was. I didn't say that out loud.

You heard that from somewhere and it was not me. I didn't say it, some other people said it. He was admitted to the hospital. There was no immediate information. Another situation where he's 84.

I'm gonna d There's a literal smorgasbord of guesses. As to why he could have, I mean, good heavens, a lot of his health has been the subject of discussion for quite some time.

So, an angry meta employee hijacked the company's presentation to unleash. Unleash a profanity-laced tirade against a top executive. These people. Can you imagine having that? Like you're just trying to do your, what am I thinking of?

Like your slides. You're just trying to do your PowerPoint presentation and this pops up because it's apparently what happened. Of course the guy's not going to be working at Meta anymore. Although if, you know, if we're talking about the left, they would probably give him a promotion. Apparently their applied AI division is where all the drama is happening.

And Wired said that the employee interrupted the live stream. I'm reading the piece with a rant about being the company's. B-word. And then urging those running the presentation to tell a meta-AI executive that he's a piece of redacted.

So grown up. This is our news today. Good heavens. Let's see. Mauam Donny and New York City Comptroller teams, they're working through the weekend on his.
