And I will tell you that one of the best allies That the Iranians have on this is the media, because the media immediately publishes all the lies, all the lies that they say.

There are no mines in the street. Two ships did not hit mines. This is Iranian Ajaprop, and everyone in this audience and every news outlet should be ashamed. for publishing that. Taking a lying regime at face value.

It's very difficult.

Well, I I think look, they are panicked. I think we should put him in charge of most things. I like how Scott Besson approaches. We talked about this yesterday. Welcome to the radio show, Dana Lash with you.

We're at the top of this first hour on this Godforsaken Slow News Day. 'Cause nothing's happening. I mean, at this point, I want an alien invasion because I feel like that's gonna. be more entertaining than waiting for these crusty old mullahs. to figure out how they're going to respond for the umpteenth million time.

to whatever latest financial provocation The United States Decides to implement against them. Do you know what I'm saying? It really I just at some point waiting on these people is like What was that kids' movie? Where they had the sloth. Remember that?

It was a sloth and it moved real slow. When my kids, my kids always thought it was hysterical, they thought it was the funniest thing ever. It feels like that because now who's in charge who are they negotiating with even over there? No one knows. No one knows.

But I mean, they're doing everything that they can. They're saying, look, all of this, because it is, there's a lot of agitation, and what he's talking about is this propaganda that's entirely designed. to divide and make people question The what's happening with This prosecution of this conflict, for lack of a better way to put it. And so This and I've seen it all over. I've seen it and he said and he's right in calling it out.

He's absolutely right in calling this out. It's absolutely everywhere. He's like, look, they're in a death spiral right now. Beston says he's like they're in an absolute death spiral. And he is right.

Two. Put His shoe up the backside of all of these people in the press. All of these people in the press. that keep Promoting this stuff and repeating it. He's like, you guys are the best.

They couldn't have better allies. And he's right. They could not have better allies if they tried. within the media. Because the media, anything, that you know what it reminds me of?

It reminds me of uh Gaza. and how the American media will repeat Propaganda. Like you guys remember when they, well, oh, when they said, oh, it's the. It's the Gazan Health Ministry. Sakazan Health Ministry.

And it wasn't the Gazan Health Ministry, it's Hamas because there isn't. They run everything over there. It's Hamas. We've talked about this a whole bunch. It's Hamas.

That does it. And our media would take whatever the quote-unquote Gazan Health Ministry or et cetera, whatever they said. They would take that. and they would run with it as a way to Try to shame. People here, like when they were saying, well, the United States is supporting the Murder of all of these.

Look at the kids. It turned out it's, you know, people that Hamas themselves murdered. Or that That Hamas murdered because they were launching a rocket off the top of a hospital. The the press has not changed at all. in that.

They have not changed at all with it. They take whatever propaganda they get, et cetera. and they without question and they repeat it and then I mean, if you remember just one more time to compare it to Gaza, then it came out that there were all of these people. In Gaza, all of these so called reporters, etcetera. That what?

There were members of Hamas that were running around. They were pictured on bikes. with rocket launchers on the back. I know you guys saw some of this because that was quite a big story at the time. I'm not saying it's exactly like what's happening with Iran, but this goes along with our media's great tradition.

Just taking And assuming Because of their bias. against this administration because of their bias Really, against the United States. They take this stuff and they run with it as though it's gospel truth. And Now look, we're all the worse for it.

So, welcome to the show, me and my topknot. Because it's 110,000 degrees. Here in Texas, I'm going to get hate for this. I will get hate for having a top knot. Oh no, I do.

I'm going to read it actually coming up. I might do it tomorrow for a little early edition of Mailback of Hate. The last time I wore a top-knot cane, I was told that I wasn't a serious news person. What? Yeah, and I needed to wear a nice church dress and never ever put my hair up again.

So I'm going to wear it like this probably for the rest of the week, just, you know, despite. I'm joking. I'm not. I just think that there are bigger things to focus on, including this. This is pretty this is pretty serious, I'm saying, y'all.

Pretty serious. No, it's 110,000 degrees in Texas, and then also we've got a tropical storm coming through. And, um It's now it's going to get, and your girl is getting a roof replaced on the studio while we speak.

So it's a little nutty here.

So you're going to forgive us just a little bit. You're going to forgive us. Forgive our team.

Alright, so. These I you know I I Uh I think that What Besson said is, look, he's like, they're not in control of the strait. They're in a death spiral. We have control. I don't know why we're still arguing about this.

You know how you can tell that we're in control? You know how we can tell because stuff's passing through, that's why you can tell that we are in control because stuff is passing through. I mean, it doesn't get it it doesn't get more obvious than that. That's that's that's the basic that's the gist of it.

So I just, I don't know, a couple of other things that we're going to dive into. Not only this, but we're going to talk about Texas coming up. Because This, I get a little aggravated at people who don't live in Texas who are. trying to lecture people about Texas. And et cetera, et cetera.

It's just fairly interesting to me. Because we had this, I saw this thing. I talked about it a little bit this morning, but CNN apparently extended. I guess CNN's trying to host a debate. between Tallarico and Paxton.

And they keep saying, well, we've sent an invitation out, and Tallarico is the only one who's going to accept the invitation. I mean, of course, he's the only one because they all think alike. And apparently, Paxton has not agreed to do it. And so the left is trying to say, look, he's dodging debates. Let me tell you guys something.

As Someone And I think I can pretty reliably say this. As somebody who was once invited by this exact same network, to a town hall. That was held at an arena. That turned into a prime time. nationally televised ambush.

Why should Ken Paxton Accept an invitation. from the same network. to what is absolutely not a debate, but an ambush. What you tell me, what do you think? I mean, it'd be stupid for him.

It would be dumb for him. to to accept this. But I also think You know, you are, there's a couple of different ways to look at this. You got to weigh it out. I mean, is it.

It it I mean, do you think it's going to be that detrimental? That's number one. Is it that Is it that detrimental? Is it... Uh something that You know, he can go in with his background and finesse.

It all depends on what Ken Paxton shows up that day. Is it the one who's charismatic and does really well when he's talking to people and is a really good, you know, handshaken electioneer, retail politicker? Or is it the guy who sits in front of the camera and thinks that he's got to be demure and quiet because that's the media training he got? I don't know. I don't know, but it can't be the latter.

I don't think it would go well against a Tallerico, but Tallarico wants to stunt on him for sure. Absolutely.

So why give in why give into it? Why give into it? It wouldn't even be a question of consideration had the GOP, if the GOP just stepped up. You know what? I wrote a piece about this yesterday over at Substack, and everybody needs to go and read this.

Everybody needs to go and read this. My friend Mark Thiessen and I disagreed on this a little bit about the lay of the land in Texas and how there's no such thing as a safe seat. Anymore, not in Texas. There hasn't been actually really anywhere. I think that's you know goes to show a lot of these seats where the electorate kind of gets apathetic and they think, oh, well, we're solid red.

We don't have to do a heck of a lot. And then, boom, the seat flips. I mean, look what happened to Colorado. I mentioned this often because it's important. With Colorado, you had 63 years of straight Republican governance.

And within literally two election cycles, they were able to have, you had a little rag tag, I think it was like three or four of these Democrat operatives that went to Colorado and they completely redid everything. They recruited candidates. They did big-time fundraising. They did all of this stuff. And what they ended up doing is flipping the state in just not one, but two election cycles.

That's it. They took control of the state legislature. They ended up taking control of some federal offices, the gubernatorial role, everything in two election cycles because they were out there electioneering. And, you know, and I went out there, actually, I went out there towards the end of it when Magpool was getting ready to leave and was helping grassroots out there fight against.

Some of this unconstitutional legislation that their Democrat lawmakers were trying to push through as it pertained to the Second Amendment. I mean, they people had been up into that point. I can say it confidently, they were empathetic. They just didn't think it could happen there. And a lot of people think the same thing with Texas.

Well, it can. You know, I've told you before, and the reason I keep repeating it is because it's incredibly important, and it is. Mandatory for understanding how Texas could be flipped in the lay of the land in Texas politics. The district I live in, the county I live in, Tarrant County, the last large red urban county in the United States of America, meaning it's the largest red urban county. There are more Republican voters in this county than any other county in the United States of America.

It's a large urban county. We're right outside my county and compasses Fort Worth.

So we live kind of, we're kind of more towards Fort Worth than Dallas. Huge county. This This, it was a couple of years ago, but Ted Cruz lost this county to beta or work because Democrats in Texas, the same operatives, by the way, that flipped Colorado, came to Texas. They released a book called The Blueprint. They also launched a grassroots organization in Texas to try to flip the state.

And they've been working, it's been a lot harder than Colorado because you have a dedicated group of activists here that push back against it, but they've been trying to flip the state forever. And they know that if they can flip this county, This county, the crown red jewel, the ruby red jewel of the Republic of Texas, then they conflict the rest of the state. And I've warned you what that looks like should Republicans lose Texas. You will never win another White House again. Hell, you may never have another majority in Congress, but you definitely won't ever win a White House again.

That'll be gone for forever. It's like taking California away from Democrats. They can't win without California. Republicans can't win without Texas. And all of these little candidates, the ones like Wendy Davis and then Beto Orwork, and now James Tallarico, these are all just different grades of the same tool to get them to that point.

They knew they were never going to win anything with Wendy Davis, and they knew Beto Orwork wasn't going to get them there. James Tallarico just might. And if he doesn't, the one after him absolutely will.

So, you have to, you got to be plugged into this. I'm going to break this down for you because I disagree with all of the people who are blaming the voters. And they're just acting like, well, this is what happens when voters get to do what they want. Oh my gosh, this is America, you damn Brit.

Your favorite fall flavors are back at Starbucks. The one and only pumpkin spice latte and the deliciously smooth iced pecan crunch latte have arrived and are ready to sip all season long. Or find a new favorite, like the new iced banana bread latte that tastes just like fall in a cup.

You can find your favorite taste of fall only at Starbucks. Uh And now, all of the news you would probably miss, it's time for Dana's Quick Five. All right, so first up, this is actually a horrifying story. Lorraine found this: a grieving mother fell into her late son's grave. Spending time with her late son at his grave site last week.

The ground caved in, and the Massachusetts mother literally fell into the. plot above his casket. This is crazy.

Now, what's crazier about this story? If you want to know what's crazier about this story. This story. Is the same? This is the woman that was arrested outside of the Lindsey Clancy trial.

I know. I've got it. She, her name, Dawn Light of Sutton, who supports Clancy, the state police released that she was arrested outside of the courthouse because she was filming the jurors.

So I'm curious as to how her son got into the grave in the first place if she's a Clancy supporter. I'm being honest. I think it's a very good question. Is that not the craziest story you've ever heard? Yeah, and then I'm like, is her story even real?

I don't know. It's creepy. We're going to talk about that whole trial thing and all of that. There's a lot there. Let's see.

Also, the USS Lincoln has arrived in Thailand. It's arrived in Thailand.

So they're finally get after 10 months. Their deployment.

Now they've gone into port.

So there you go. All the media can stop talking about it now. Alarming studies suggest that using AI is turning humans more robotic. I would rather have humans to be more robotic than the emotional meat messes that they are now. If I'm being entirely honest, I don't see any downside to this.

There was a couple that got trapped in a hot tub suction system in Spain. I don't like hot tubs because it's people's stew and it's gross. I will, you will never find me getting into a hot tub. It's disgusting. Especially with like random people.

Like if you're at a resort or something, that's gross. You're getting everybody, you're getting in there with everybody else's dirty. No. But these people, apparently, the one the wife tried to save her husband and apparently she had a heart attack. I don't know if he had a heart attack, but one of them did.

And they were in London and they got trapped in the hot tubs suction system in Spain. Don't do people's stew, I'm saying. And then Brigitte Macron's daughter. who's forty two, just did what her mom did. She robbed the cradle.

She's dating someone half her age or marrying somebody half her age now. We got more on the way as we roll towards Florida Man. And as we do so, the folks who help make the program possible It is our friends up over at Burna. It's I'm not going to call it a gun because it's not a gun. They say burn a gun, but it's not a gun.

It's just Burna. You call it a launcher. This CL, for instance, compact launcher.

Now, does it look like a gun? Yes, but it's not a gun. Here's the thing: Burna shoots chemical irritant projectiles that deter threats from up to 60 feet away. And the uh C L, the compact launcher. The smallest, I mean it's like the size of an iPhone.

You got maximum concealability, no recoil, easy target acquisition. And by the way, you can trade in if you have the other model that they have, the SD, you can trade that in and get you a Berna CL if you would like. The other thing too with the Berna CL compact launcher is if you have a stun gun or a taser, that's great. Great journey for you that has like one or two rounds. Adorable.

The CL has a 15-round shot capacity per cartridge.

So, yeah, you can see the difference already. Why I think this is important to have, we always diversify what we carry. Like, I have different calibers that I carry. I have blades. I have all kinds of stuff, extended mags.

You know, I have, you know, different, and I always care. I have no issue using lethal force to put someone down, and I've trained for it. If you're a threat to me, I'm going to take you to the rail yard. I don't care. But here's the thing.

If you're like, say, a 20-year-old college student, you're living by yourself, you gotta walk to campus, drive to campus, you wanna make sure you're protected. But you can't carry a firearm. What are you going to do?

Well, Burn a CL is an option for you. There are no background checks. There are no waiting periods. There are no fees. And it doesn't care about gun-free zones because it's not a gun.

You order it online, they send it right to your house. It's not a replacement. It is an option for when your options are limited. Visit barno.com/slash dana to learn more. B-y-r-na-na.com/slash dana.

Or find a new favorite, like the new iced banana bread latte that tastes just like fall in a cup. You can find your favorite taste of fall only at Starbucks.

Uh I have to tell you, welcome back. First off, Dana Lash with you, bottom of this. Second hour, and we're gonna. I'm gonna follow up and get into the Texas Senate stuff and how close it is, but. I have to add to we've been talking about peptides and the guys are going crazy because they know I do peptides, right?

I do I do like copper. I have samoralin that I do for muscle because I I have a very fast metabolism.

So, which is great. Until it's not. Because it's not as it's not all as cracked up to be because when you especially as I think for women particularly, especially as you age and you wanna maintain muscle, it's actually kinda hard. And it makes it harder if you have that kind of workup. And it's just it's a bummer for dudes, honestly, because you know, my my kids are all very, very thin.

They're super tall, like six two and up. and real thin. And they work out, but they don't do, they're like, I don't wanna lose weight. Whatever we can do to add weight.

So, some more lin for muscle, all of that. There's all kinds of things you can do. Peptides for inflammation. I'm not going to turn into a health show, but yes, I absolutely do peptides. And Kane is just over here.

Kane's the guy who makes bacteria tea. Or, what is it? Your Kobe? What is it? Kombucha.

Your Scooby. You got your Scooby tea? It's SCOBY. But yeah. What is it?

You're almost there, though. I like it. It's fine. SCOBY? Yeah, but I've abandoned that more for the, you know, just a different type.

For a new thing. And then you'll abandon that for a new thing. You know, I just, I'm pro-probiotic. What's wrong with that?

So I feel like you would be very pro-peptide if you did it. Yeah, these are all the ones you're showing me are all injectable. Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah, absolutely. I inject myself like, you know, you get like three weeks on, one week off for certain ones, and I absolutely, I absolutely do this. Crazy, you are with your research.

So, I trust that you've, you know, you've shared.

Well, I actually, I did, I actually did go to my doctor and I did do blood work. And you guys know I'm crazy with health.

So work out, I eat super healthy. Um, I do allow myself like some indiscretions, you know, I'm, you know, with, yeah, with it's like for sometimes, like, I'll be, I'll, like the other day, I was in my kitchen and I'm like, I, I, I really need to make a lemon pound loaf because I love it.

So I'm going to make it, and I'll probably eat half of it. I'm not going to lie.

So good. But I do eat very healthy. And, you know, I, you know, maybe have like drink moderately, like if we're out, you know, things like that. I can't do a lot of sugar because it makes me sick because I'm not used to having it. But very healthy.

So I went in and I had, I did a panel just for peptides and wanted to make sure that, you know, check for, you know, copper and all this stuff and talk to my doctor about it because there's certain things that my doctor. They're being very, I mean, and smart, methodically, you know, very methodical in introducing it into their practice. and work with my doctor on that. Like, so just like, not to be totally TMI, but I deal with hypothyroidism.

So I have to be, I wanna be completely like tuned in as much as I possibly can be as naturally as possible. And like, I don't like taking pharmaceutical as much as I can avoid it, you know what I mean?

So, with peptides, you know, I talked to my doctor about it. I do like the copper peptide, I do NAD, the buffer, I do, which, because NAD plus without that, can actually, like, some people, they get like indigestion and it can trigger some things, and that kind of helps. The severity that kind of helped not really I haven't really noticed anything severe, to be honest. The samoralin, there's you know, there's all different kinds of peptides. Women, I think, have there's peptides that women can do that men, you hear about the wolf stack.

So there's like the wolf stack, but for women, it's like the glow or the clow with a K. But there are peptides that deal with inflammation, all of it. And you got to be careful with the number of companies out there because I'm sorry, but if they're asking you to just pay them in crypto and text them, I'm not doing that. That's nonsense. And most of them are either Russian or Chinese.

There's very, very few, if any. That entirely do it in the US of A. I mean, honestly, whether or not the precursors are USA is questionable, but. In terms of putting it together, there's very few in the USA that do it, but the Maha thing has been changing it. I just think that people.

I get very classical liberal about this. Back to that conversation, back to Tocqueville. I think the government should be a neutral presence. I don't think the government should be regulating all of this because I've been taking them, and I'm telling you, and this is just my experience. I've noticed a mad, crazy difference.

Mad, crazy difference. I wanted the one thing that I did do differently. is I and I haven't tried it yet.

So I I'm not going to tell you the companies because I don't I still feel comfortable doing that. I don't want to sit here and be like shilling for them. Like I was telling you guys behind the scenes, you know, with some of this, but. I don't want it to seem like I'm 'cause it's not an ad and and I don't, yeah. But some companies are better than others.

Do your research for sure. I've done Hours of reading on this stuff, and I've like distilled everything down to three different companies. The things that you need to understand when you're looking for peptides is. First off, if they're not taking credit cards and they don't look legit, then they're not legit. Or you may not get the full strength of what you're getting.

And that's where that COA, the certificate of analysis, I think there's two things you need: third-party testing, a certificate of analysis, and they need to be public on the website for you to access, not something that you have to beg for in email that's sketchy to me.

So there's things that, because that tells you what's actually in the vial that you're getting. But I absolutely do this. I get my peptides, I get my backwater, I constitute it. I have a little pen that I do. Super easy.

Boop, boop, boop. That's it. And I do the NAD Plus is done in the morning, but the other ones are done in the evening. And But the copper one, so I've been doing the GKU, which is amazing. And now I'm doing what they call the cloth stack, which includes the GKU and then also something for inflammation, but it helps with hair and skin and nails and all of that stuff.

And as I was telling everybody, I've always had like really fast-growing hair anyway. That's why my hair grows so fast. Because some of you watching are like, Did you? Are you? It's not a wig.

I've never worn it, I've never had extensions. That's how fast my hair grows. And it's crazier now. With that. I've noticed it.

And I've been doing these for. mm, probably about ten months now. Oh yeah? Yeah. Oh wow.

Yeah, I've noticed a major difference in I've definitely noticed a difference. Absolutely.

And when I went into, because I would, my health crusade also includes doing. two annual skin checks. Even though I'm more olive-toned and I don't really Not, I mean, it's still. Want to go and check things out. And my dermatologist was even like, What are you doing differently?

And I'm like, that's just, you know. My has been my experience. But the other thing I'll have you guys know is you guys, for those of you who've watched me for or have listened to the show for. Any period of time. You guys know that I used to get sinus infections constantly.

How often would you guys see me here dealing with strep throat? I've done this show with strep throat and 101-degree fever more times than I can count, and Kane knows it. Um I all the time. When's the last time you remember me doing that now, Kane? Beam set.

You're right. It was well in last year. Early last year. And I've always eaten well. And I've always, you know, I get a minimum.

I don't, I can't sleep a full eight hours because I just can't. But I always get six and a half hours sleep. I always do, you know, whatever. And again, work out, eat right. Even with that, I was still getting sick.

But then changing it and I'm just telling you, I've noticed a difference.

So, I think it's worth checking out. And this is one of the things that I love about the Maha movement. is they are so focused on prevention. And that to me is so key. And I've been through health scares, I went through a crazy.

terrifying healthcare. like three years ago. And I had to have major abdominal surgery, which was life-changing for me. And um Even before then, I was still pretty crazy about health.

Now I do body scans every year. I do the whole nine yards. um everything allergy shots body scans all of it Because I want to run optimally and I never want to have to go through anything like that again. And I also want to make sure that I am just at the healthiest that I can be. And um That includes looking and making sure that what I'm actually injecting with peptides is legit.

So, and I've shown everything to my doctor in the order. I'm like, hey, what do you think about this? What do you think about this? Um Th sure I thoroughly aggravate them, but I'm surprised that the doctors even engage you in conversation about stuff because they know.

Well, I tell them, you can either answer me. I'm going to do it anyway. You can either help me or not. That's how I put it.

So, what are they going to do? And I wonder how much my doctor, for example, would even know about it, honestly.

Well, and that's the other thing. Like, so many, so my doctor's office, they literally went and did this for like two months. They went, there was a thing, like a symposium, and then they do this training. One of them went to Sweden, and all, I mean, it's, they really study this stuff. Uh so Long story long.

Just look for those those things. Do your research.

Someone more legit than others, but they need to have that third-party testing. They need to have that certificate of analysis. And I'm obviously I'm not a doctor. I'm just telling you what works for me. Just be smart about it.

But I think that it absolutely is, I think it's been life-changing. I want to switch gears here because this Texas thing, to close this out, we were talking about a piece that I have up at Substack. If you haven't read it yet, go read it. It's called Stop Attacking Voters for the Texas Senate Matchup. And uh I Aside from everything, how I was saying that this has never been a safe seat, and I explained why, and I went into.

How it's not Trump's influence because Cornyn got more votes than Trump in 2020. It's not Trump didn't go in and just bulldoze everything and pick a candidate. Cornyn did not help himself. He sponsored the gun control package in 2022. Big issue, you know.

And if he was such a safe bet, then how did he get beat in the primary? If he was such a safe bet, then why was he neck and neck with Tallarico in every pre-primary matchup for a possible general? It just doesn't make any sense. And it was never a safe seat because Ted Cruz lost the largest red county in Texas, the largest red urban county in the United States, to Beta or Rourke in 2018 by nearly 4,000 votes.

So it was never a safe seat to begin with. These are all things that people who do not know Texas politics, what they say.

So here's the thing. Republicans have a 53-seat majority currently. 31 are GOP-held seats. They're not up for re-election. 22 are on the ballot this November.

Republicans can only lose two seats. to maintain a majority. Of the 22 Republican-controlled seats, two are up for special election, but still doesn't matter, it's November. 12 are considered battleground races. 9 of them are Republican.

Texas is considered a battleground state now because it was reclassified as Leans Republican to toss-up. They were actually considering Cook's political report was actually. considering having it leaned down, but it's a toss-up. They're within the margin of error, Paxson and Tallarico. The matchup between Paxson and Tallarico is exactly what was envisioned during the primary, and Cornyn was no different.

The corn in Tallo Rico Uh surveys pre-primary were the exact same as Paxton. I looked at all of them. I wrote about it and screenshotted it. That's how I know. Texas is a state that was plus nine for Trump in 2020, plus 13, almost 14 in 2024.

Yeah. Uh y this is You go to war with the soldiers you have. And this is a race that can be won. And I don't buy into the scarcity. The scarcity economy of the election spending.

Because, like I said, Trump has hundreds of billions of dollars in his war chest. NRSC has money, other donor groups have money. That's a lie that they're telling you to make so that they can wash their hands of this race. And that's fact.

So it's a race that if the party wants to win it, they can win it. But you can't sit here and go after Texas voters. who and call them morons and all these other names. Because they look we had corny for a long time. The straw that broke the camel's back was the gun control bill of 2022.

So, Cornyn did not help himself. People are out there saying, well, Paxon's a bad candidate. Cornyn did not help himself. He was also a bad candidate, guys. This is stuff that people who don't live here in Texas, who have no familiarity with Texas politics, that's what they say.

It is a winnable race. and people stop being cowards about it. It's a winnable race. This isn't a popularity contest. And look, if you don't like Paxton in six years, when he goes up for reelection, replace him.

You have every right. And look. Don't think for a second Texas voters won't, the folks won't bring you your program. It's the people over at WebRoot. Web root is a way to you know, when you hear about the cloud, everything operates in the cloud, what do you guys think the cloud is?

So Okay.

Okay, this isn't on the list, but I have to have this one because it's funny, and this is one of my favorite foods. Hundreds of missing cinnamon rolls found days after driver's South Florida arrest. Uh I mean, if you're gonna steal something, don't steal. But if you are, So a South Florida U.S. Border Patrol arrest.

I did not know there was a mystery, but apparently people were wondering why In this area, did hundreds of cinnamon rolls disappear for days? They didn't make it to a farmer's market, right?

So, this guy named who has way too many names, Ivan Dario Rico Milano. Too many names, Ivan. And what is up with the Derio Rico Milano, but your first name's Ivan? What? Was arrested during a traffic stop by Border Patrol.

He's Colombian. He came to the United States illegally. He's here illegally. And apparently he stole. Apparently, three thousand dollars worth of cinnamon rolls from the Roll and Dough Bakery in Sunrise, Florida.

Julie Pierre, the 21-year-old owner, had sent these to a farmer's market with an Uber courier, which she shouldn't have done. And she thought maybe the courier stole it. But apparently they never left the vehicle. A family member, after Milano's arrest, a family member picked up the vehicle. The cinnamon rolls were inside.

They weren't discovered until days later. They actually never left.

So they had to throw away. That's horrible. And I feel like this guy should be hung. And then his body deported for wasting all those cinnamon rolls. I'm very I'm very particular about this.

Yeah. So, I think this video is moms trying to jokingly. Explain how nervous they are after postpartum, and like this is the stuff that they're worried about every day that's going to happen. And I get it. If you're tired and sleep deprived, you know, you're like, oh my gosh, today.

You know, did I do this? Did I do that? You know, you always think about that. I just think the timing of it looks bad. Because it's the Lindsay, not everything is related to the Lindsey Clancy stuff.

I had two of my friends that were talking about these videos, one of whom is pregnant and has young kids. And uh the way that those videos started, it was supposed to be the bur the the new mom brain drain. And how You know, you, there's certain things that you forget. Like one of my friends was like, Yeah, I left my diaper bag on top of the car driving down the street, going. She was like, going to literally Costco.

Thankfully. The it was still on top of her car. How does that happen, by the way? I mean, she doesn't live that far from it. But the other thing is, like, nobody said anything.

I would have been honking. Although, is that... That's probably considered aggressive now, wouldn't it? If you were trying to honk at someone, like, lady, lady, and especially if it's a new mom and you got your newborn, you're probably freaking out already.

So, yeah, it's probably not the best thing. But the video. was supposed to be Like what sleep deprivation the postpartum acclimation is, as opposed to these are dark thoughts I have, inspired by Lindsay Clancy. I think we need to be a little bit nuanced when we're looking at some of this stuff. Because not everything is is that.

But definitely, some of it out there is like the whole cracking the egg on the kids. What is that even? I don't know. I don't know. But I feel like we're getting into crazy territory here with all of this.

Because of a calculated blackmail campaign orchestrated by her former tour manager.

Well that's no fun. Bill. Uh so she apparently it's she says that while she was temporarily employed. Uh that while temporarily employed by her as a tour manager. The person that she had hired admitted to the British Border Force that a bag seized at an airport that had marijuana and non-opioid animal tranquilizer belonged to her.

Sorry, we're gonna shuffle you off forcibly this mortal coil because you're too gross to live. Bye. Let's see, some Gen Z men are pheromone maxing, so that means they're staying disgusting and allowing their BO. That's gross. That just means you're stanky.
