But we have talked about the border wall here in general as a way that it's been used to close the border and we feel that it is a policy that doesn't work and it's not just us.
Experts have said that. The border wall is not an effective policy. As far as those comments, I can't comment on that. I have not seen it. I have not read them and I need to read it in context.
There will not be another foot of wall constructed in my administration. Number one. Number two, what I'm going to focus on and the fact is that somebody in this group written a lot about the board. Trump's comments were offensive. They were baseless.
They were void of any facts and or any evidence. What they were Dana Lash here with you. Happy Thursday. You can listen to the nationally syndicated radio show Coast to Coast and stream it as well. And, uh,.
We're getting into the latest in DC. It's just one of those things where you just want to jump off a cliff because it's all pointless. What's the point? Because it's all stupid and everybody's a rhino. All right, so there is something that did happen.
Two things, in fact.
So you have. The situation, number one. with the border wall. I don't know if you guys saw this. But this is absolutely fascinating.
The President of the United States, I'm assuming it's because. They are So under the gun. as it pertains to the criticism from everybody you know, on the on the left. Uh I'm sure that you know, it has to do because of that. The The whole situation with the border wall.
You have the Biden administration.
Now Calling for the construction of physical barriers at the border. And the waiver is applying to limited stretches of the border in Star County, Texas, in fact. And so this is a huge reversal of literally everything that they have said, everything that they have called for. I mean, you had the pres you I mean, the president he campaigned on I mean, he absolutely was not going to do anything at the border. And this is what he campaigned on.
He was like, no, we're not having a border wall. They tore some of it down. I remember that. You remember that. It wasn't that long ago.
They tore some of it down. And so With this I I I mean, this this is the Civil War. That ultimately the press should be talking about, but Republicans won't let them because they're too busy having a Schlong measuring contest, and everybody has their operatives out there. And honestly, if we lose, I hope the Republican Party never wins again, and I hope that everybody suffers because we'll all have deserved it. But this whole thing, this is actually the whole civil war, the inter-party civil war that everybody's been talking about.
This is exactly what it is. And With this, it's a mess.
So, how are they going to get this done? Where are they going to get the. Where are they going to do this? They said, oh, we're going to do more to stop border crossings. This was after you even had the governor of Illinois, J.B.
Pritzker, send a letter into the administration that was made public. They sent a letter in. Saying that Something has to be done. It absolutely has to be done. We are too under siege.
You have Kathy Hochle, you have all of these Democrat governors. All of these Democrat governors all saying the same thing. They're like, We're under siege. It's too much. It's too much You know, the the administration has to do something.
You all have to do something. It's too much. Okay, well You guys didn't want it. I thought it was racist. I thought walls were racist.
That was the whole claim. Walls were racist.
So Now I guess they're not. This was after you've had federal agents. Who were cutting the razor wire to let people who crossed illegally to let them through? Uh that was Even it was after I mean, do you remember when they had the uh the whole floaty thing? With uh What is it?
The floating balls in the middle of the roof. I don't know. I don't give a crap what they're called. The stupid things. They looked fun, honestly.
It looked like a fun time. But This was even after the left was saying that this it was mean to it was mean to put that up in the middle of the Rio. It was mean to put that up. No, there should be no hindrance. There should be no hindrance at all whatsoever.
Okay, well. Not really how that's gonna that's not really how that works. I mean, you guys aren't doing anything like I said. To Styme any kind of relief relief at the do anything for relief at the border. One of the things that I heard, too, because you know, we never got a wall built, and I was told Mexico was going to pay for it.
And someone told me that, well, Mexico did pay for it because they had their federales up there, you know, helping to really because they've been putting people on buses, sending them up to the border. I don't know if you guys saw this. Actually, Bill Malugin has done some. Has some good work on this. Mexico.
has been bussing people. bussing illegal immigrants to the border. You guys have been seeing this? They sent tons of buses. Under a new government program that they have.
Because they said that so many people are using their So many people are using their uh bus lines that They're trying to free up their bus lines.
So they have a new government program. to help manage the people arriving. And the way that they're doing that is literally bussing people up. to the border. That is not a joke.
This is actually reported by Reuters just the other day. There's a great piece from Reuters. And they said, look. They had people from Venezuela, they had people from everywhere. Mexico, Venezuela, Colombia, Guatemala.
Everybody's coming up. And they had four separate videos. that were released. Bill Melugin talked about one of them, and I think those were the ones that were coming from Venezuela. He talked about one of them.
But they had a ton of different. A ton of different videos that were released. And the This was all because they needed to free up their bus lines. The other thing, too. Is they had the the officials were saying, and this was one of the local civil protection agency, they were saying, Oh, well, you know, they got to pay their own fares.
It's about, you know, twenty-two dollars to eighty-five dollars. And a lot of them were young dudes. A lot of young dudes.
So they said that they're entering the U.S. Oh, well, they're going to secure their appointments via that government app, the CBP1. app and they're going to request asylum. Through the app. That's what they're going to do.
And then they're going to make sure, this is what the federal allies are saying, oh, and they're going to make sure that they go see that immigration judge.
So For all for everything that I had heard. about Oh, well, the Federales were helping. They were there making sure that They're doing everything they can to make sure that they're helping out. They were helping out with the border. And they were busting people right the hell up to the border.
So spare me that. That wasn't happening. That was not happening.
So this is uh this is all the latest with it.
Now, the president of Mexico was calling for countries to address the root causes of driving illegal immigration, etc. This happened after the death of 10 Cuban immigrants in a traffic accident in southern Mexico on Sunday. And they were saying that, look, you can't, you know, these countries need, these countries aren't going to examine anything. Venezuela, it's lawlessness. And in Venezuela, though, there are some people who are legit fleeing.
But like everything else, I mean, it's just lawlessness. And if you're fleeing, you're taking your family with you. You're not, you ain't leaving your wife and kids there. We're not this is that's not what any of this is.
So, this is the latest.
Now, I'm going to tell you what. Of all of the discussion, of all of the talk about civil war, etc., you did not see anything like that. You did not see anything like that for you. From at all whatsoever. From the media.
The media is not reporting on it. They're not talking about it. They're not having anything to do with it because it's complicated for their narrative. They wanted to make it look like everything is under control and then when you have The situation where these other countries, like their leadership, are actively organizing this stuff to send stuff up. That's very complicated for their narrative.
Very much so.
So they're bussing people up. Tijuana. There were some families bussed from San Jose. to San Jose. Let's see here.
There's Owen Albuquerque's preparing for a whole new bus, a bus load. And yeah, their movie they're they're they're They're Now some of them were sent to the border with Guatemala. But then, apparently, according to another report, there were buses there in Guatemala to take them back up to Tijuana.
So, who knows? How fun. You know, this wouldn't be an issue if we closed the border.
So the president now said, oh, you know what, that border wall looks like it's a good idea. Looks like it's a good idea. In the meantime, the Texas Rangers have been dealing with what they're calling an armed invasion force. There's this 170 acre Mexican cartel controlled island in the middle of the Rio that is overlooked by sniper nests. They think it's also booby trapped.
So they've been watching that. This is the stuff our dude's got to deal with. It is craziness. I went to the border one time. They had us go there at 4 a.m.
Well, the first time I went to the border, it was like 4 a.m. And They had to take us through particular parts. They wanted us there at that time because that's when they have. the bi that's when they had the biggest influx of people. It was like early in the morning.
And that's crazy. Like the stuff that you're seeing on, the stuff that you see on TV where all the people are lining up, those are huge numbers of people. But that's still not even as big as the ones that come in the early morning hours. But it's harder to get that camera footage because the picture isn't as clear. And usually it's in certain areas where they cross where it's very brushy, et cetera, et cetera.
The banks are steeper. There were ruts. in the banks on the bank side of the on the US side of the Rio Because they were saying, and this was back, the first time I was there, it was several years ago. And that's when they said, oh, it was only like, you know, maybe. 1,100, 900 to 1,100 a day that are coming across here at this.
I know that sounds like a lot, but that's how much it's increased over the years. And there were literal ruts in the banks of people who had worn pathways. And there were like makeshift shelters in the brush and that for that where people would change their clothes, get their wet clothes off, all of this stuff. It is. It is one of the craziest things I've ever seen in my life.
So everybody knows where they crust, but they're not allowed to do anything. And then there was another part Where there were all of these, they had apparently, I mean, you could see, especially. Bullet holes in some of the wood and some of this other stuff where they had like a stand at one point because they said that they a lot of times during the afternoon, if people, they'll try the cartels will try to distract them by bringing across huge groups of people and then they'll they would try to get drugs across at another point. But they were like fired on by 50 cap. In fact, when we got there, there was an inordinate amount of border patrol there because they were just getting shot at by the cartels right across the the Rio.
I mean, this is the stuff that our guys have to deal with. It's unbelievable.
So it's the border U-turn. We're going to talk a little bit more about this because I think this is huge. And I also think that this is a win for Republicans. And for just for citizens in general, because you proved our point, you finally are realizing this. But they need to acknowledge that so they acknowledge that there's a problem.
We're going to get into this. We also have some of the latest with the student loan stuff because that's going to cost you taxpayers. Biden's for giving a whole bunch of student loans. We've got the latest on that. We've got all kinds of stuff coming up for you.
So you don't want to miss it. We'll get you set up. All right, folks.

Alright, so first up here, now we're all gonna die from snails. You know what? I hope the snails kill us at the same time that the sweet meteor of death hits. I mean, this is so nasty. I don't even want to talk about it.
This is so gross. When I click this stupid link, you know what? I'm sending it to you subscribers to the newsletter. Because if I had to see it, you do too. It's called the Apple Snail.
Don't stop. I heard one of you out there in your cubicle go, oh my gosh, it's so cute. No, it's not. The apple snail is disgusting. It's the size.
of a uh baseball or golf ball. Guys, it carries something, I don't even know what this is, called rat lungworm. What is that? That sounds like a Warhammer disease. What is that?
Rat lungworm. And it has pink, disgusting masses of eggs, peptobismol pink, and it causes skin and eyelashes if touched.
Now, here's the problem. It's in North Carolina. There, people are warning all their residents, guys, it can be fatal to humans. It's been positively identified along the state's Lumber River. It's native to South America.
And it's called the apple snail. You're urged to freeze or crush them, but you're not supposed to touch them or their eggs because they're filled with toxins and they can kill you. They literally will murk you to death. And it joins the mucus-covered hammerhead worm. This is disgusting.
This is so gross. But these things are ever. See, if you see them, like kill them. This is why flamethrowers were invented, so you can put fire on something over there. This is so gross looking.
Let's see. Fire rescue response to an apartment fire in New York City after a Good Samaritan called 911 only to find out that it was just a Yule log television display. I don't even know how this can be confused, but it was. It's a TikTok video that, because I hate the Chinese's TikTok, documented the moment that a New Yorker called the fire department to report an apartment fire, but it was somebody's log fire video on a TV. They thought, oh, they're going to set everything on fire.
It was on their TV. People are dumb. I don't understand this either. And I'm not a cat fan because I'm allergic, but this is sad. In Abu Dhabi, they found more than 200 cats abandoned in the desert and they're dying out there.
They're just being dumped out in the desert.
So an investigation has been launched. Authorities have no idea what's behind this incident, but it looks really sad. Dozens of them just like succumbed. This is horrible. And banks are bracing for the recession as treasury yields surge.

That's uh President Daddy Showers. Who's talking about how he's going to pay for everyone's bills? That's what it is. It's the new student loan forgiveness. It's forgiveness, except it's wait, why is forgiveness for one person a punishment for somebody else?
I didn't do this. I didn't sign up for to it for six figures in debt to pay for s women's studies. Cane sidebar. Yeah. Why are we not in this craft, man?
Yeah, I know. Come on. You're supposed to be thinking of this stuff. Why did you not get us into this? I didn't realize that.
Like, we could be teaching classes on BS, dude. We're like illegal griffs. We're supposed to be doing that. Yeah, yeah. That's what we're talking about.
Like, we could do a whole class on the history of aglets, you know, the little plastic things that are in the shoelaces. And how there's aglet equity. I know, right? You might be onto something. I feel like I am.
And then we could also do a whole, I mean, we missed out on the whole Ponzi scheme, sorry, carbon credit thing. Right. And I really wanted to go just and sell people little empty potion bottles and tell them that the carbon credits are in there. It's the same thing, right? It's the same thing.
So The student loan forgiveness is what he's calling it. Except it's It's not Really a forgiveness, is it, though? I mean, somebody's got to pay for it. My favorite thing, and I've gone through all of this, so I'm just not in the mood for some uneducated drive-by who didn't put in all the work that we did, doesn't read things regularly. Uh and thinks that this statistic isn't true.
And that it's literally mostly grad school debt. And it's from people who come from you know, the upper crust. Those aren't my numbers. Those are Department of Education numbers. Because remember, the federal government, led by Lya Watha up in Massachusetts, she and Shmerny Sanders were the people who decided that, hey, you know what's awesome for the government to control more things.
Let's have them control student loans and then let's vote to centralize all of that. And all the people today that bitch and moan about the cost of student loans, but yet drive around with Democrat stickers on the bumpers of their cars, that's like chickens driving around with a sticker for Colonel Sanders. It's the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Like, really, you're going to complain about the cost of student loans and yet you voted for the people that literally made it centralized where the government controls it, thus driving up the price astronomically. This is why aliens don't visit us because stupidity is a disease.
And we are afflicted. I wouldn't visit us either. You better be glad that I'm not an alien. I would have already blown us up. I would have.
I would have been like, these people are too stupidly dangerous. Kaboom. It would have already been done. It would have been like Star Wars, blown up Leia's planet. It would have just been done.
Calderon, right? Se Alderan is Alderan.
So The Student loan forgiveness. That's gonna cost quite a bit. In fact, I was looking at some of the uh yeah, he botched it, you know. He said that No one with an undergraduate loan today or in the future is going to have to pay more than 5% of their income to replace where did these people get these like completely arbitrary numbers from? Why 5% if you really thought That This was going to be.
If you really loved people, then what you would do is you would. you would have it as Well, just don't pay anything back, right? I mean It's $9 billion. It's just going to disappear. We're just going to write it away.
Wait, you mean the teachers in the universities are going to teach for free? Because I told you What was it? Monday? Tuesday? I said that this this is going to be a really bad week for people because you have all the student loan stuff that's going to be coming due.
Right? All those all that's starting up again. They had a three year plus pause. Don't you wish you could pause all your stuff? We still have to all pay taxes.
Isn't that fun? But they had a three-year pause due to the pandemic that they caused. And so Now they have to they they had they everybody was getting a bill showing how much they're gonna have to pay twenty-one days before the due date.
So most of that I think most everybody se received their bill yet.
So That was going to be very difficult for Democrats going into an election year to manage. Oh my gosh, everybody's paying student loans again. What are you going to do, Daddy McShowers? What are you going to do, Daddy Biden? What's happening?
So they decided, poof, we're going to make it. Bippity boppity boo go away. $9 billion for 125,000 Americans. That's how he. They've th he says they fix stuff, like the um income-driven repayment plans and public service loan forgiveness.
They said this is from, I think this is CNBC. More than $5 billion of the aid is going to go to 53,000 borrowers who have worked in public service for a debt. Oh, government people. $2.8 billion.
So you're paying government people and then you're paying the debts of government people. Isn't that lovely? Can I claim them as dependents? I feel like And this is an unpopular opinion, maybe. I actually don't care.
If you disagree with it, I don't want to be your friend. I don't care if you like me. Uh I feel like I should be able to to claim anybody that my whose salary is is from my tax dollars as a dependent. Don't you think Kane is that nice? I think we should do that.
Seems legally in line with what's going on. Yeah, I'm telling you.
So, more than $5 billion of the aid, like I said, you're looking at government workers. $2.8 billion of the forgiveness is for 51,000 borrowers enrolled in these income-driven repayment plans. And then $1.2 billion is going to go to another $22,000.
So your tax dollars, because he fixed all these programs. Fix them. Really? I'm sure you did, Wink Wink. And His surrogates are going, Biden has forgiven more student loan debt.
Forgiven. Wait a minute, you're not the Lord. What is this? These are not sins, and you are not the Lord. You don't get to say, and you are forgiven.
By the way, when you say that you're forgiving someone something, I mean just automatically, let's look at the sentence structure for a moment, shall we? I forgive you of the sin of stupidly paying an exorbitant amount of money for a decree that you most likely won't ever use. Right. That's the one thing I can't stand. The investment.
Of the dollars into education. If you're not using your degree, I told my youngest son when he was going into tech stuff. Because he got scholarships. He got a lot of scholarships.
So. At first he didn't want to go to college. He was like, it's a racket. But then they gave him all this money because he's a brain. And he's like, my free money, might as well go take it, might as well take it.
I'm not going to, I'm not going to basically, I'm basically not paying anything, might as well go do it.
So You know, why not take it, right? He's like, I'm grifting them.
So. Anyway, so that's what that's why he's in college. But The Like for instance, I am not kidding you. When I was in, when I was a freshman in college, uh, I had, what class was it? I'm trying to remember.
Oh It was a, I was a freshman in college. I kid you not, this was literally the name of the class. And I dropped it because it was so stupid. Women in Renaissance France Your head jerked, cane you okay? That was a reaction.
Yeah, trying to figure out what the Practical life value of that classroom. Exactly right. Like women in. I mean, I like learning about history. I love history.
I have read, I but I like learning about this stuff on my own time. You know what I'm saying? Like I read all kinds of stuff, I've read all kinds of stuff about, you know, Renaissance Spain and Italy and France and everything else. And I don't need a class to do it. But it was weird because the whole class was structured like the church hates women, and look, it hated women back then.
That's not really what I thought I was signing. I ended up dropping it because the teacher was annoying, and she had dirty feet and Birkenstocks. I kid you not. You guys know I have a thing with feet. Maybe 50% of the reason was I was like, this chick doesn't even scrub her toes.
This is so gross. Couldn't sit there in class. I was so distracted. I was looking at her nasty feet. Anyway, so.
There was a girl that I had met. I dropped it like the first week, but a girl that I sat next to, she literally, and this was before I ever even heard that this was a course of study. was going into basically women's studies. Studying women. I'm like, you're a chick.
Are you going to go and operate on them? Like, are you going to go be an OBGYN? What is the point of this? What purpose does this serve? It sounds like you're going for a bitching degree.
That's what it sounds like. You're going to go for a doctorate in nagging. That's what it sounds like to me. This is all rolling through my mind.
Now, mind you. When I was a freshman in college, I still thought of myself as a liberal because I was raised as a liberal. And then it wasn't until I met literal actual other like I met actual conservatives in college. That was the f literally the first time I ever met Republicans or conservatives. I'm not kidding you.
You think I'm exaggerating? I am not. And it it's wa it was like a an awakening. But this chick I'm sitting next to, she was outlining, yeah, she's gonna go to what she was going to go into the grift that was women's studies.
So she could then go and teach the grift. That's a grift That's a whole scheme, man. And she was telling me that she wasn't the best student, so she didn't get a lot of scholarships. But thankfully, her parents were rich. She grew up in a pretty tony part of Saint Louis.
A lot of old money. The Huntley area, Kane, you know that area. That's some old money area. This chick didn't even get sc she her parents are pa we're paying for her. to go to a good school.
and get a degree in bitching. That's what it was. And I'm Like The whole time, the wheels in my mind are turning, and I'm like, none of this makes sense. You're spending all this money, and then you're going to go teach this grift. to other stupid chicks who don't understand what this course study is.
And and she's like, Yeah. And then she was talking about how her parents said if she went after her associate, she had to pay it for herself. And then she was telling me all the student loans she was going to take out. She gonna go into debt for this She was going to go into debt for this. At least her parents were smart enough to be like, we're only going to pay for two years of this snake oil.
This is what people go to. It's like PCU, which, by the way, Everyone should be required As a condition of living in America to watch PCU. It's an older movie with Jeremy Piven. And it literally makes fun of all of the woke. This movie made fun of Wokery.
And uh social activism. Long before it became a thing to make fun of. It was the literal first. And it's about this university, politically correct university. and all the different groups that protest.
And there's one point where they just want to have a party, dude. He wants to have a party. He's got George Clinton and PFUNT coming to play at his party. And he just, you know, and he's selling off research papers to these grad students that are coming in, right? And this one grad student comes in, he's charging money for it, and that's what they're using to buy their beer and all that.
And he's like, Okay, what are you studying? This dude goes, Sanskrit. And Jeremy Piven's character takes a beat and he looks, he's like, you're studying a 25,000 or a 2,000-year-old dead language. And he's like, get out, get out. It was hysterical.
That's literally what we're dealing with here. It's PCU. PCU was a prophecy. Before The Simpsons was a prophecy, before South Park was a prophecy, it was PCU. That should be your homework this weekend.
is to watch PCU. That is your homework, and I want to get your emails about it. I want to hear about it in the chat. I want Lorraine to tell me. I want to hear about it on Twitter.
I want to hear about it on Facebook. And I want you to email me. That is your homework this weekend. It's watching PCU. I may not be able to get Kane to play Vermintide.
But by God, I'm going to get him to watch PCO. It is. This is literally the whole student loan thing right here. Like for instance His surrogates are going, Oh, well this distinguishes him from candidates. who are campaigning for the nation what giving away money who do What do you think pays for this stuff?
Who pays for this? Nine billion dollars in quote unquote forgiveness. You know, when you're when you're a god You, you are God. You can forgive people of their sins. When you're Joe Biden, You you are not omnipotent.
You don't get to just like forgive people of $9 billion of debt that they chose to willingly assume on themselves and sign for. I ain't out there making people pay for my mortgage, am I? No. I'm not out there making people pay for stuff that I need to get done, am I? No.
I'm not doing any of that. I'm not demanding that people pay my bills. Why the hell are these people demanding that people you voted for this? And then Biden's like, oh, well, we're going to give you the free money so you keep voting for us, the people who made this all. a Punado in the first place.

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. By the end of a governing crisis, it's time to end these constants. Yeah, I think it's a good thing.
Um Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. Audio list. This is audio sound by 300,040.
Hold up, let me look at this. Why is I can't I'm trying to pull it up and I ended up just losing it. What did he say? By the end of a governing crisis, it's... time to end am These constant Yeah.
Okay, anyway.
So, E N D U V A Governing crisis lists. time it to end um. Ay uh, anyway, no money good. No, but me. I think it's going to be a little bit more.
Welcome back to the show. Your friend. that you can talk bad about everyone too. Dana Lash is here with you. Um What?
Okay, I gotta tell you guys something. I don't know if this is true, but it does that matter. Because it's media, right or left, you can say whatever anymore. Apparently, so now this thing is floating around. Judicial Watch is suing for docs.
to get an understanding Uh how Biden treats his dogs. 'Cause apparently there's some kind of claim that he punches and kicks them. Can he and still remain upright? And also, I'm going to lose my ever-loving mind. What?
Stay with us. We got a lot more on the way. There are some new pictures of Commander Biden biting a staffer again. How many times has that dog bitten the Bidens? I would refer you to the Secret Service and also the First Lady's Office.
Okay. It's the 12th known incident of this dog biting a White House staffer. A lot of times when that happens, there's a lawsuit. Isn't the President worried about getting sued? I would refer you to the Secret Service or the First Lady's office.
Okay, so that is Peter Deucey talking about um The uh Situation with, you know, Commander Biden, the dog. This is kind of important. Welcome back to the show. Just because I love dogs, it's important. It's important to me.
It's important to you. Dana Lash here with you. You can listen to the radio program. You can watch a simulcast. YouTube always has great discussion.
Sidebar for the chat. Juan has never seen the Burbs. We just gave him an another assignment over the weekend.
Alright, back to the back to the point.
Okay, so How many dogs is this? I'm like really confused. Did he also all name them Commander? Isn't this like the 11th dog or something? I don't know.
No. It might not be that many, but it's more than one, which is one too many that they're having this problem with.
So apparently the dog was just out there biting everybody. And I cannot stand when You guys know I am a dog. crazy person with dogs. Uh And I'm not a fan of cats. I'm actually super allergic to cats, like highly allergic to cats.
So I can't. But Love dogs. And I cannot stand it when people don't train their dogs. And then when their dogs do something as a result, when they exhibit bad behavior because of no discipline or training, then it's oh, well, it's the dog or it's the breed and it's not the dumbass owner. I loathe this.
I think some people should just they shouldn't own dogs. And I kind of think, yeah, so you had champ, major and commander. German shepherds are smart. They're super smart. I they're they're actually sh the German Shepherd's my favorite my absolute favorite breed.
They shed like mad and they require a lot of invest like a lot of time investment with training and discipline, which is why I don't have one right now, because I I wouldn't be able to be the dog owner that my German Shepherd would need.
So When you, I think when you have these dogs, you have a responsibility. If you really love your dogs and you care for your dogs, you have a responsibility to train them and to show them proper behavior. You have to be the alpha of the pack, and you're you have to set the limitations. And it's like the Bidens want these dogs, just like with everything else, but they don't want to do the work that's involved.
So, this dog apparently, one of the stories is that this dog, like straight up super bit. A What was it? How many Secret Service agents? Like several Secret Service agents, but one of them. I think I had to go to like urgent care or something like that.
from what I was reading. I mean, that's kind of a... And and he's they had this report that came out. That the New York Post had, and they were saying, Oh, we had to speak out. That Uh what has been happening is a little bit more dangerous than has been previously disclosed.
And staffers were saying that it's now it's a dangerous workplace because Their dog commander has bet more personnel. They said there's 12 documented biting incidents, 11 with Secret Service staff alone. And they said that the actual number of incidents is is Actually, a lot higher. And a gardener was the one that was bit previously. They had a Secret Service agent that was bit most recently, and then it went after the Gardener.
The Gardener is also the same guy that walks a dog, by the way. Like their gardener who is out there, the White House guy, he w he actually walks the dog. And This sounds like it's an issue with the dog. Or, not the dog, sorry, Biden's handling of the dog. Kane said that the Bidens are grateful that the dogs don't have diaries or laptops.
It's probably true. Yeah, yeah. So there's the the I'm pulling this up.
So judicial watch. Says that They're suing. For documents to get a full understanding of how the Bidens have treated Commander, because apparently there's stuff going on about how Biden has treated this dog. Like there was the do you remember the time that He said he fell when he had to wear the boot on his leg when he was getting out of the shower because he was pulling on Major's tail.
Now Hold up. Kane, I made a joke about well, at least Biden doesn't shower with the dogs. Uh Did we know that? and then he said that he pulled Major's tail while exiting the shower. I don't want to focus too much on the idea or optic of Biden getting out of the shower.
But who in who in their mind Who just were anyway? You're getting out of the shower. And you're like, where's my dog? I'm going to pull this title. Who does this?
And then he fell and that's how he hurt his stupid foot. What? Who believes that? Nobody. I don't know.
He just sounds like... I we're the animal rights activists, by the way. Where are they where are they at? We're Caesar Milan for crying out loud. Right?
Someone was like, Well, I got a contrarian view here. You know, dogs got to be trained. Yeah, dogs have to be trained by the people who own them and profess to love them. Shh. And then there was the video.
of him getting off of Uh this is marine one, I think. And he gets off and his foot gets tangled. And the dog's leash, his foot got tangled in the leash. And this poor sweet dog doesn't know what's going on. And and Biden like kind of like like hits him in the head with his leg.
And I don't know. I mean, you could, it just to me, it's just weird. It's just the whole thing is weird. I just don't think that he's a good dog owner. And I think that he likes to, I think they're like, you need to have dogs so that you have the this, it gives you a softer image, it softens you up.
You have to have dogs. I think that's what they told him. Cause he doesn't act like any dog owner that I know. Like we. Uh, when with every dog that I've had, Like you train them and it's not difficult, it's just about repetition.
and consistency. You know, you train them to sit, you train them to stay. You train them to go to the bathroom outdoors, basic commands, things like that, with the reward system. I we had two Uh we we had two Frenchies and we lost Louie uh 'cause I've had all kinds of dogs. I've had German Shepherds before, I've had labs, I've had all kinds of dogs.
And the Frenchies were some of the most stubborn dogs I've ever had. And Louie, uh, who we lost two years ago, He was kind of like our bimbo. He was super sweet and super loyal, but he was also super frustrating and he just didn't he was he alerted to everything. He was just a ball of, you know, paranoia. And Rocco, who is really like a human.
I think it's if Winston Churchill could ever come back to life as a dog, it would have been, he'd be Rocco. Anyway, so. Rocco was really easy to train. Louie was a lot harder, and it just took a lot of repetition. He just didn't care about the reward system that much.
He just wanted to do his own thing. It's all about. Repetition. Same thing with German Shepherd. Same thing.
I mean, there's with the Lat Labs, the lab was pretty easy to train. It's all about repetition. And these, and you can't have, when you have a Uh I don't know how old Commander is, but You can't, it's very difficult to put a pup in the crazy environment that is the White House as well. And then expect them, expect to retain their attention for tr their attention for training. But my whole point is that did you honestly think that these dogs were going to turn out any better than the kids?
Think about it. Look at their kids. And he's got kids by two different people. And they all are they all turned out the same. This clearly is an issue with him.
It's clearly an issue with parenting. It's clearly an issue with him as an authority figure. He s comes across as a guy who's too busy chasing his own tail. to give any anybody else or anything else attention.
So everything else goes to hell around him.
So I don't know. I mean, someone said, well, unlike Hunter, Commander wasn't snorting cocaine with hookers, so that's progress. Although I do think now, I do wonder if Biden didn't shower with him. I mean, you know, he did fall. Hurt his hurt his foot with his boot.
I don't know. Whole thing. A couple of other things.
So we were talking about the situation with, we were talking about the. The whole Student loan forgiveness, the $9 billion that you're all going to be on the. hook for. But wait, there's more. There is more?
Yeah, there's more. There's a lot more. Uh this Is happening. Let me pull this up. At a time.
I had this as a headline yesterday. More's coming out. The decline of American Home Ownership.
Now We had the statistic, I think this was Monday, showcasing that 99%. of the United States. They have, it's becoming incredibly difficult for the average American to be able to purchase a home. And that's the way that you build health, or sorry, wealth. They had a study that came out.
This is. uh, the old Dominion State. They looked at Virginia. Virginia apparently has had the steepest decline in property ownership. Since two thousand.
67.4% of Virginians had their own property in 2022. That is down from 73 percent. In 2000.
So in 23 years You saw that much of a decline. in property ownership. I mean, that's like almost 9%. It's the steepest slump. of any US state.
It even beats California. That's crazy.
Now, the top ten states because you had that followed by North Dakota. They suffered a seven point five percent decline. And Ohio and Connecticut both saw drops of seven point four percent.
So they're barely in third place. They're almost tied with North Dakota. And then the top ten states after those were uh North Carolina, Georgia, Nevada, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee. Nevada has a Has the lowest proportion of homeowners with only 64% of residents in the state actually having their own property. All of the research was compiled using figures from the Census Bureau.
So this showcases a huge downward trend. across the country. And it further goes into What we're seeing with younger generations, they are so much, far less likely to own a home than their parents. I way less likely. And there are some states, for some reason, that are more susceptible to this phenomenon than others.
With Nevada, they had like a property bust, right? Didn't they have like a big home ownership bust? Like what? Fifteen years ago. where you know the housing market and all this, Nevada was really, really hit.
And so I get that a little bit more, but like in Tennessee, Georgia, what's going on in these states? What is happening here? And then you have this storm where you have higher mortgage rates. You have inflation. All of this stuff.
So it's really deterring homeowners from even moving. And a lot of Because a lot of times, I mean, a lot of these people, when they made 30-year fixed deals, they got rates at like, what, 2%?
So they're not going to leave. They said that figures from the Atlanta Federal Reserve show that Americans were facing the least affordable housing market since 2006. Mortgage Bankers Association showing mortgage rates topping 7.5% for the first time since 2000. And here's this. Shows that the number of sellers slashing the price of their homes has risen to its highest level this year.
This is like the worst time to sell. Worst time. And even though you have the post-summer cool down, because everybody moves during the summer for school and all that. A ton of economists noted that the trend has accelerated. It's worse.
This falloff is worse than ever. Put that up. What's the student loan thing? People can't look They're spending your money. And now, all of the news you would probably miss, it's time for Danus Quick Five.
I didn't know this about Bob. Bob Menendez, you know his wife, Nadine. I should, I'm not joking about this. I'm not going to say a joke about woman drivers. I'm not at all.
Kane, that was you. Put that in my head.
Okay, I lied, he didn't. It was me. She got a new Mercedes convertible from her bribery scheme. She literally hit a pedestrian and killed them in 2018. And and legit, like they've okay, they said she was not at fault in the crash.
But then she got a brand new Mercedes just like months later, a couple months later. Got her a brand new Mercedes. See, the laws be different for some people. I'm just telling you. One in eight households saw their income drop last month.
So people can't afford homes. People's incomes are dropping. But hey, we're going to go ahead and have $127 billion. Y'all get to have more debt because he's got to pay out these government people's college loans. Terrorists, now, see, I thought about this.
Terrorists could hack driverless cars and use them for horrific attacks, according to a report. I mean, I think that's true of almost anything that is. Driverless or operatorless, you know what I mean? I think almost anything could be compromised. That's another reason why I'm just not a fan of that.
Um. Uh how apparently What so this? I don't know. There's this. There's a link here, but apparently.
There's a privacy threat. What is I'm not gonna? This is always my, this is not a link in here, so I don't know what this is. This is a mess. Let's see.
Can noise cameras reduce potentially fatal sound pollution? Is that a thing? Noise cameras, fatal sound pollution. What is fatal sound pollution? This is the subhead for The Guardian.
Noise detectors are installed in rich neighborhoods in Manhattan, but experts say it's going to punish people of color. That is actually a very dope band name. Like Fatal Sound Pollution, that's actually an epic. Band name. I actually may actually finally create a band just for that name.
We're going to come back to this. Stay with us. Looking for the drive-through version of the Dana Show? Check out the best highlights from every show and Dana's Absurd Truth podcast, hosted daily from The Dana Show.
South Carolina, I am not afraid of standing on principle and my values. And I will say, Caitlin, the establishment is coming after me. I've had a lot of threats about my fundraising. I'm asking people to go to my website at nancymace.org to help me to show their support because there are folks that are coming after me tonight. I'm glad you brought that up because back in January when there were the marathon votes for Kevin McCarthy to get this job, he was fighting to take the gavel.
This is something that you said. Matt Gates is a fraud. Every time he voted against Kevin McCarthy last week, he sent out a fundraising email. What you saw last week was a constitutional process diminished by those kinds of political actions. Of course, now here we are in October.
You and Congressman Gates are in agreement on at least ousting McCarthy. You were on a podcast the other day. You yourself have been fundraising off that vote. How do you explain that to now?
Well, I have not been fundraising off of this every step of the way. I've made my decision. Oh, that was bad. I feel so. Look, I've had Nancy Mason on the show.
I've had no reason to dislike her, but let's not pretend that she's super conservative. She's a moderate, y'all. I hope you pay attention to her record before we start calling people like Chip Roy who are, or Thomas Massey, who are exponentially more conservative, rhinos as compared to her moderate record. That's number one. Number two, I she and Vivek Ramaswamy are in a competition to see who can waffle the most.
This is why people are criticizing Nancy Mays. Again, welcome back to the show. Dana Lash here with you. I know, what is it, Representative Spartz? I met her.
In Georgia, when I was in Georgia helping to get out the vote during mid uh the spe uh was it special election or midterms? Can't remember. And I totally disagree with what she was saying about this whole speaker fight, but I like her, and she's always been consistent. Notice that she's not getting a lot of criticism. A lot of these other eight Republicans that colluded and voted with Democrats.
You can get mad about how I'm saying it, but that's true. You know, come on. Uh They're not getting criticized because they've been pretty consistent on stuff. She hasn't been.
So she's being criticized because she's inconsistent. And I'm just not going to allow people to conflate that. And misrepresent it and claim that, oh, it's because suddenly she's this stalwart conservative, and she's always opposed McCarthy, and that's why they are targeting her. People are targeting, they're not targeting her, by the way, they're disagreeing with her. People who call disagreements, and usually it's progressives who do this, and Republicans who are really progressives and are faking that they're Republicans.
They say that they're being targeted or attacked when they're being disagreed with because the hypocrisy, their hypocrisy is so astounding. Yeah, it's pretty damning.
So she's being criticized. And I don't see how it's not justifiable because she's been so ridiculously inconsistent on this. That's what people are saying. They're just simply pointing out that she's going to wherever she thinks the power is. Is that not part of the problem that we have with people in DC?
Is they don't stand on principle and they go wherever they smell the scent of power in the wind, and that's where they go. Is that not why we have a problem with most people in DC?
So why is that any different here? Because she did one thing that maybe affirmed one stance that someone has on this one instance. Because that sounds pretty weak. She's not a hardcore conservative. She never has been.
And I know that she's kind of been, I think gun owners gave her, I was trying to remember what rating they gave her. I think it was like a 92% or something. They had revised it. And she's better on guns than most Republicans. But I don't like when you say, We've got to strengthen background checks to do all that stuff.
And she's literally verbatim. I can I have the the uh press release that she has that's still up on her official House site where she used that phrase. Uh so I mm I kind of bristle when I hear stuff like that. She's been pretty moderate on abortion. She had a very difficult time defending her stance on the VO.
And uh i I just, you know, I I th that is what it is. People have got to stop attacking their fellow countrymen when their fellow countrymen point out. without any emotion, very obvious things about These political people in office.
Now, like I've said, I don't have anything again. I don't dislike Nancy Mace. I don't dislike, you know, really, I don't have a problem with the. Eight. Eight Republicans that were going off like Victoria Sparks.
I like her, I've met her. She's a fire brand. I don't have anything bad to say about her. She was hardcore. She was one of the eight.
But you know why, again, one of the reasons why she's not getting criticism is because this chick is consistent. Victoria Sparts has always been consistent. That's why she's not getting any shade. Biggs, he's not catching shade because he's always been consistent. Mace has been inconsistent.
And now they're trying.
Now she's trying to encourage people. She's telling people: oh, the establishment's coming after me. No, they're not. These are grassroots conservatives with records more conservative than yours. With a longer history of conservatism, who are pointing out that you literally waffled so that you could be power adjacent.
Now come on, be honest about that, because if you're going to lie about something that obvious, what the hell else are you going to lie about? That's out there for all of us to see. Why make stuff more difficult for yourself? See, this is what I don't get. Why in the hell do people lie about stupid stuff like this?
Just own it. Just be like, yeah, I said that. And you know what? I changed my mind because of this. People will be a lot more forgiving of something like that than you gaslighting them, acting like they're rhinos because, or they're the establishment after you.
Because they'd pointed out that legit just a handful of months prior, you hated Matt Gates. She was the strongest his strongest critic. It just blows the mind. This is why I hate DC.
Some of you people ask me why you would run for office, I'd be beating the hell out of everybody. I'd already be beating people with canes. There's no way. No way I wouldn't want this job. I would not represent anyone who voted for me.
There's no way you people are crazy. But this is my whole point. Sparks and these others, they've been consistent. Mace hasn't been. And that's why people are criticizing her.
That she's bringing in the establishments after me to try to give herself cover. She's using that as a dog whistle. You know what I hate? I hate it when progressives call everything racist, and I don't like it when two-faced politicians call everything establishment or rhino. It is the same damn thing, just a different variable.
Especially when they use those accusations against people like Chiproy or Thomas Massey.
Now, I had Chip Roy on this program yesterday and I asked him everything. If you did not watch that interview, you need to go back on YouTube or Facebook and you need to watch it. And I don't mean to be, I actually do mean to be bossy. I see people, I had a friend of mine who was going off about Roy, and I said, before you open your mouth, you might want to shut up for a second. Actually, listen to what the man's got to say here.
Before you go misrepresenting his positions like some damn communist. That's what the that's what the commies do. I don't aim to try to be different from commies by adopting their commie behavior. That's just me. Like if you're gonna adopt their commie behavior, hell, when are you gonna stop?
You're gonna go for confiscating all our wealth too? Gonna go for taking the guns? Like when does it stop?
So He addressed the whole thing with the appropriations bills. Because remember, and I'm not defending McCarthy. I'm defending people, I'm defending good people like Massey and Roy. Who have super conservative records and they're getting called rhinos because they're saying, wait a minute, this is actually what happened. And he talked about the whole myth of Ukraine funding in there.
He addressed all of that. And I again, I highly encourage you to go and watch that interview if you hadn't. But throwing out things like, oh, the establishment's after me, that's a dog whistle to try to. Obfuscate. What you actually did.
You're trying to hide what you did. You're muddying the water here. And you're using that as a shield against people who are raising legitimate questions. Like, what made you change? That's always been my big issue, for instance, with Ramaswamy.
I don't mind people who change their mind. Hell, is that not the point of what we do? Isn't the whole point? of what we do, Getting people to agree with us.
So, why would you excoriate someone who finally agrees with you?
However, this is where I question the authenticity of it. When you can't give me what it is that made you do a 180. When you cannot show me Your pathway of thought. to get to your new position. That's when I got a little red flag that goes off, and I feel like you're pandering to me.
And I don't like that. Do you like being pandered too? I don't like being pandered to. I don't like it when one somebody, a politician, tells me one thing and they do another. That's why we're in this position.
So this is my my big complaint with all this. No i sh it's not fair nor is it accurate. For her to say the establishment's at, girl, you are the establishment. You have a moderate record. Go look up her record.
Why are we doing this? This is so stupid. I mean, I I look at this stuff. And I look back, I went back and I was looking at her votes on this and that, big spending votes, all this other stuff. And you know, I I Like for instance, she co-sponsored The Fairness for All Act, it was anti-discriminatory, anti-discriminatory protections to alphabet people.
Uh That's a moderate thing to put out there. Right? Why are we doing stuff? But that's what she did. That's an actual bill that she legit co-sponsored.
Okay. And I mean That I mean, really, you're gonna the Fairness for All Act and then accuse other people of being the establishment? What? I don't I don't get it. I don't understand that.
And she tried to say that, oh, no, no.
Well, the Freedom for All Act, we're trying to protect the conscience rights of religious institutions, except the bill didn't do that. At all. Businesses that had more than like 10 employees were subject to the whole definition of public accommodation, thus, forced to. Accommodate.
So She literally sponsored a bill that bill. How is that a conservative position?
So no, you don't get to call other people the establishment when you're doing stuff like this. That's just one. I mean, do you guys want me to spend the rest of the show going through this? Because I'm well prepared to do it. I'm like going back and forth on do I want to dump all of this in a piece for Substack and just throw it out there?
I mean, I'd really like to focus on some of this other stuff, but I'm not going to sit here and let people misrepresent themselves. And the other thing that I don't like is that these people know that y'all work.
Okay. They know that you're out there being busy. You're working because somebody else, somebody's got to pay the $127 billion grad school debt for all the government workers that Biden just bought off.
So, you know, they get that you're busy. You don't have time. to wade in to the petty power struggles of these dippy politicians. and they're counting on that. They're counting on you not knowing the everyday minutia.
And they want to play on that. and try to sell you a load of something else. I don't like that either.
So And I really don't like it when I see politicians do it. I feel like it's insulting to your intelligence and your time. Question Everything, even me, question everything. I always tell you, this is why I tell you where I am up front on everything.
So you know exactly how to gauge me. the candidates I like, the issues I like. Everyone else out there tries to sell you a line of BS. This is exactly why I come out of the gate and I tell you where I am. I'm paid to have opinions, so it'd be stupid if I didn't.
But some of these people out there need to respect their voters and their audiences a little bit more, and be honest with y'all. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida Man. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Some of you actually emailed me about that dude who was. Stockpiling the ED stuff because everyone came wanted to tell me that E what ED stood for because I didn't know. 'Cause I was so pure and and wholesome. Mm-hmm. Thanks, people.
Mm-hmm. I see you. I see you all. A Florida man accused of dousing a McDonalds manager with hot coffee was apparently did so over a one cent dispute. What?
He was charged with felony battery. He legit doused a dude with hot coffee at a drive thru. 64-year-old man. Kane, what did you say? Old people are not innocent.
That's not what I say. I say not all old people are innocent. Elizar Rovello was arrested in Miami Springs. According to law enforcement, he was told to stay away from Stephanie Rastuccia, as well as the Mickey D's, where the alleged, really, is it alleged altercation took place?
So apparently, they show he was at the drive-thru window. He had an argument with Rastuccia. She's the manager. And according to the report, she approached the window after she heard Rovello, who was described as a frequent customer, complaining that he had been overcharged by literally a cent. It was legit one cent, guys.
And so When she reached out to hand him his coffee, he slapped it back at her before driving off, and it literally legit burned her arm and chest because it was hot coffee.
So Resuggio, who's worked at manager for years, described the experience as humiliating. And he yelled and was like, you're robbing me. It literally was over a cent. A penny, literally a penny. I'm not kidding you, one penny.
Okay, so uh Isn't that funny? A Florida man admits that he was drunk. when he fell asleep. drove off from deputies during a traffic stop. He was taken to jail.
After he admitted that he was drunk, this Florida man, Emmanuel Klass, 45, he was arrested on charges of DUI, resisting fleeing a law enforcement officer around 6 a.m. Sunday. They spotted him at a green light. He was just sitting there. They went through it.
It went through the whole cycle of the light. And they found he was asleep. They tried to wake him, they were unsuccessful. He was dazed when he finally did wake. He really didn't respond to them, telling them to lower his window.
So he refused to roll down his window and then drove off. They took him to jail. They did all the sobriety stuff. He failed all the sobriety stuff. And then he admitted finally that he had fallen asleep because he was drunk.
Gee, you think? Do you think so? Tomorrow, we're going to talk about a Florida guy that got arrested because he got into an argument over how to clean a cast iron skillet. Yeah, stick with us. Today, I'm announcing my administration has approved an additional $9 billion in relief for 125,000 borrowers in just the past few weeks under that program.
With the latest debt cancellation in total, my administration has canceled $127 billion in student debts for nearly 3.6 million Americans. This kind of relief is life-changing for individuals and their families. Yeah. but it's good for our economy as a whole as well. By freeing millions of Americans from the crushing burden of student debt in the middle.
Yeah. Great. We're all gonna have our money grown. Our wealth is going to be grown.
So, this is what they actually traded out. Hold up. Yep, this is what they tweeted out. Let me pull this up. Welcome back to the show, by the way, while I do this.
Daniel Lash with you. Always good to be with you. And you can listen coast to coast. You can stream the National Acidic Radio Program. You can also watch the simulcast YouTube, Facebook, channel 347 Direct TV.
They so they they retweeted this Axios piece. Axios reported the Biden administration announced another $9 billion in student-loan forgiveness through its debt relief programs, bringing the total $3 billion. Forgiveness, because he's the Lord, to $127 billion for about 3.6 billion borrowers. They tweeted this, retweeted it, and they go, Guess what? It also grows the economy.
It benefits everybody, it hurts nobody. Kane, guess what you get? As an early Christmas gift, someone else's college tuition. Yay! Are you so excited?
Can I be forgiven for that? Yeah, can I be forgiven my mortgage? What about all bypass bills? Steve paid his loans. Where's his forgiveness?
Steve, there's no forgiveness for you, you sinner. Yeah. No none for you. If you paid off your debts, shame on you. you sinner.
Why do they say this? It's not forgiveness. I love the language. This is all such a language battle. I fight over the words because Orwell told us to.
The revolution is complete when the language is perfect. It's Forgiveness sounds like Some they make it sound like something was done to these people. Can you believe that they just rounded up people and they kidnapped them and they took them to these overpriced universities where these people went into debt six figures to study women's studies, which is just a degree in bitching?
Okay. That's all it is. I can say that. You guys can't. I can say that because of vagina.
So apparently, it's my get out of jail free pass. I can do everything, it's magical. Except fold-fitted sheets. Anyway, so. I mean, 127 billion total, 3.6 million borrowers.
Now I did not compile these numbers. The government did. Most of these cats are grad school people. They got stupid degrees. They can't even cut nobody up.
I just feel like why are you going unless you're going to be like an attorney? or a doctor, you know, you're doing something like that. Then you're paying too much, bro. You're paying too much. You got you're dying.
What? Are you okay over there? No, it's just like everything that we've heard, even from Democrats, say that the president doesn't have the power to do this, including the Supreme Court. Nancy Pelosi said it. Yeah.
Who cares? She got moved out of her office. Who cares? Let let the old man let President Daddy showers do what he wants. Come on, come on.
Including showering with his dog. Remember, that's how he fell in his bathroom and got hurt and was wearing the boot. I don't know. I didn't make this story up. This happened.
You gotta hear about it. Yes. Oh my gosh, I just can't deal with it. I can't. It doesn't benefit everyone.
How does this grow the economy? You know what grows the economy? Not starting out your life being a dipwad by going six figures in debt over a stupid degree. Again, PCU, everybody. Jeremy Piven.
Wait, you got a degree in a 2,000-year-old dead language? Get out. Exactly. That's my point. I w I could not, as a parent, let my kid study something stupid.
I'm going to go off into a tangent here, and you're humor me. 'Cause my coffee machine died. Don't buy a bruvel. It's trash. They're trash.
It's like Trash. I don't know how else to say it. I hate it and I'm mad. I got a lot of feelings right now because you guys know how I feel about my coffee machine. Anyway.
Don't tell me to do the fringe press. That's trash. I want to be able to, I want all my bells and whistles in one spot. Anyway, I was going to make a point about this. Where I do think at some point Parents got a way in here.
I reject the notion. This is where I turn into Dustin Hoffman from the Medicis. I reject the idea. That as a parent, you know, you, as soon as they turn 18, then you don't get to tell your kids what to do no more.
Now maybe I won't go as far as him because this kid was like almost 30. But Dustin Hoffman's character and this is completely fictionalized, but it's a good illustration. And th that whole Medici saga. Uh, he told his kid, he's like, I gave you life and I'll tell you what to do with it. I would not tell my if my kid was like, Mom, I want to.
I want to go get a doctorate in basket weaving. I would hit them. I would I would actually hit my child. If they told me that. I'm gonna go Six figures into debt ruined my credit.
in my life by getting a degree It's like going into men's studies. Which actually might be useful 'cause it's about how to control the thermostat. you know, back into a parking spot. Yeah. ancient Rome, things like that.
But Some of this is a, I really do think that it's inflated because people look at it as a status symbol. We are a ridiculous species. We really are. We are this is why aliens don't visit us, because we're stupid. We're people who like, golly, we gotta spend thousands of dollars to impress people that we don't like.
Yay! We gotta have that status symbol. Our kids gotta go to this fancy college and get a super fancy degree and something worthless. Make it. you know, make it useful.
Make it worthwhile. Not everybody's got to go to college, but see, a lot of this is, you know, parents have not told their kids no. You don't have to facilitate it. They can still make their decisions. You just don't have to facilitate it.
Okay, you're going to make that decision.
Well, then you're going to bear the brunt of it. It's still your decision. I'm just not facilitating it.
So like my friend, I told you this last hour. Because I sat for five seconds in a class that was called Women in Renaissance France. Yeah he turned all your homework in on a pad. Joking. Not really, although it would be true.
But This chick that I sat next to was telling me how she was gonna after her after daddy paid for her associates. Any of her education after that, she wanted to get a doctorate in women's studies so she could go and return the griff, right, and teach about this teach about women's studies in school. and college. Like, that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. You're gonna go into debt for that?
You're going to go into debt learning about women nagging. Why? on earth would you why do you hate yourself? Parents didn't tell him no. That's why.
First off, raise kids who don't do stupid stuff like that. Number one. And then, number two, If they do do stupid stuff like that, have the beans to say that's stupid. You're stupid. That's a stupid choice.
These are not like precious little babies. This is how you got Hunter Biden. Because Joe treats him like precious little newborn, 50-something, almost 60. He qualifies for the early bird special at Denny's, Hunter Biden. Does he?
Is that that age, by the way? Is that the age that you qualify? I don't know what the age you qualify. When you get the discount on the moon's the moon over my hammy cane, when does that happen? Is it fifty-five?
Sixty? Is it? I don't know. I don't know either. I'm just, you know, just wondering.
So I my whole point in this is that this really wouldn't be as bad, number one. If Parents told their kids no. If people didn't inflate this, and if Democrats didn't vote to nationalize all of it. You're this is theft. How does stealing from someone?
Make the economy grow. How is this any different than looting CVS? It's rhetorical. It's not. This is just like fi trying to get bread at a Nike store.
Stop it. This is actually bread and circuses. Just give the people their bread, give them their panam. Let them have it. But all this is, this doesn't benefit anything.
It doesn't grow anything. There's no such thing as free. What is this? Free. Forgiveness for re.
It's like we just have piles of money that appear out of the ether. Why not give these people some of this money? Who knows where it came from?
Well, of course, people who don't work have no idea where the money comes from. They just think that just shows the hell up. It's like the people who don't know how meat gets in the supermarket. I don't know. It just shows up there wrapped in plastic.
I don't know how that happened. The money just appeared Making first off too. Do you realize? that nationalizing this. Did not actually.
Like help the economy either. It didn't help the economy. Good heavens. Can I complain about my coffee machine real quick? Folks, I'm going to save you some time.
And a heartache. We got, what is it? It's the Brevil, the Brevel Espresso one. We gave it to ourselves. It's like a Christmas present.
It was our Christ. Merry Christmas to us. A couple of years ago, and we've already had it replaced it a handful of times in just a couple of years. It's ri it is, I don't know why Breville gets such a high rating. I don't know why this thing gets a high rating.
Spare yourself, don't get it. Because it is so, it just up and dies. I cannot be, I needed more coffee. Guess what? I can't have.
That's bad. I can't have Wands Dying. Oh, I sprawled this home. This is. I cannot have more coffee.
I am don't know what's gonna happen. And it and it I mean, when it works, it works great. But then all of a sudden, it turns into Hunter Biden and it won't work anymore. And I don't know what to do.
So I mean, I feel like just putting it in a trebuchet and launching it back to Breville USA. I'm on the fence. Should I warn people on the Twitters tagging Brevel Cain to not get a Brevel? At this point. I mean, I think that'd be a good economy.
It's a responsible thing to do. I mean, hell, if I have to buy another one, and it's all under warranty, but it's like at some point, okay, when you've gone through your like third and fourth one, okay, this is garbage. And I'm very picky about there's certain things that I will invest in, and everything else I'll buy it cheap on Amazon so long as it's not made in China. By the way, this shirt I got on Amazon, and I think it's made Vietnam.
So It's not China, so I'm happy. Uh I try to get stuff made in the USA. My whole point is, I will invest in like my espresso machine. I will invest in like my cookware. I will invest in a couple of different types of shoes.
And then everything else I literally will just buy in bulk on Amazon that's made in Taiwan, India, or Vietnam, and not in China. My point is that when you make an investment like this, especially in this economy, it should not be breaking down. Three and four and five thousand times. I bet it wasn't made in the USA. How much you wanna bet?
How much are you going to bet that this wasn't made in the USA? I'm going to break this thing apart and look at all the parts in it. And if I find one damn thing stamp-made in China, I'm going to figure out how to properly write as a conservative. I don't know. And now, all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So, I did not know this until late last night. There were conspiracy theorists who said that the emergency alert system would turn the people who were vaccinated into zombies. You mean you don't think they are already? I'm not joking. Maybe I'm joking.
I don't care. If you're offended, then I don't care. Burn it all down. I'm so tired of it. I don't care if someone's feelings are so fragile, I can't even make a joke.
I am not for those people. Go, go to hell. I don't care. All right, moving on. I.
There was this dude in Scotland who got kidnapped by an electric car. Yeah. It drove itself, crashed into the police. Brian Morrison was forced to dodge red lights and had to dial 999 from inside his new car after it started driving itself came. The man says he was kidnapped by his new electric car.
It malfunctioned, forced him to dodge red lights, crashed into a police van. It did finally end up stopping. The 53-year-old, he had to call for help. He was heading home from work. Bless his heart.
And then his brand new car, the brakes wouldn't work. Nothing would work. And it just decided to totally take control. And that was it. And so finally, he-I love the pictures that they have.
British newspapers love to take pictures of people making unflattering faces, like right by where the story is. Have you noticed this? Like, this is this person. Like, there's another photo of this dude with his hands in his parka, and he's standing right in front of his car, I guess, looking mad. But yeah, they've, I mean, thankfully, he's okay.
But I mean, they had to do a diagnostic check on the car and all that. See, this is what I'm talking about. This. A 13-foot-long python survived five months in an Oklahoma City trailer park eating cats. This is an actual story.
Congratulations, take it over. I can't do this. Oh my gosh. Yeah, a thirteen foot python. That's how he survived.
In a trailer park. By eating Hey, yes. That's the story. That's it. Salt.
To look out. They also said, I'm so sorry. Oh my gosh. They had this guy, his name is Trevor Bounce. And he's with red beard.
Wildlife control. What is it to name that? He said his quote was: the mouth on that thing is the size of your foot, and when it opens up, you're gonna be able to fit something pretty large in there. Oh my gosh. They finally killed it.
But it it ate like tons of cats.
Okay, we got more on the way. Follow Dana on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts because knowledge is your ultimate superpower. Not going to let any judge disturb the peace of the city. The DA calls it individual justice and says everyone involved in the looting will be looked at on a case-by-case basis. We'll look carefully to see whether this is a one-off situation and they're fundamentally law-abiding people.
Hold them accountable one way or whether they are criminals and they're all about taking advantage.
So, this is Philly DA Larry Krasner. I was like, we're going to look and carefully to see if writers and looters are if they're fundamentally law-abiding people. What an oxymoronic statement. You know, here's the thing, if they are Rioters and looters.
Sounds like they're not. Right. I'm gonna go. Um you know, make a on the limb here and say they're probably not. Because, you know, the rioting and the looting and so forth.
Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. The uh bottom A third hour already here this Thursday. Tomorrow we're gonna have some bad economic stuff. We're gonna Talk with.
Some folks about that tomorrow because I can't wait for that to all get every that's all going to get blamed on, yay, it'll all be blamed on us, on the Republicans. I This just people are came in Philly, they were looking for bread. That's all? Yeah. That's awesome bread.
I mean, I know that I love that Nike bread, right? And the Lululemon bread. Did you know it's like lemony? Oh. The bread that they have there, you don't know that.
I didn't literally know that they had men's stuff there until. Like this week. I didn't know they had men's stuff at Lululemon. Although Juan said that that's not men's stuff. Right.
He did say that. But If you're a writer and a looter, don't you think that you're already fundamentally not a law-abiding person by way of writing and looting, which are non-lawful things? Does hurt. What we would call criminal activities.
So what is this what's this whole thing here? I don't know. This is just weird. This is all is this the the permeation of social justice? into All of this, social justice into law and order.
That's what it is. This one, I'm going to go to this one thing. I am amazed at this story. And I'm sure you guys have seen it at this point. The story of Uh Let me pull this up.
This is wild. This was in this guy, Ryan Carson, who was stabbed to death by a junkie in the street. I'm sure you guys saw it at this point. It's in New York. Uh the New York Post has some has some has pieces on this.
Uh I mean, it's all captured on video. It's just, it's so bad. It's just. And there's the stories. I didn't watch the video because there's just certain things that you can't unsee.
You know what I mean? I'm like, I don't need to. I don't need to see somebody getting stabbed to death. I know it's bad. But I some of the I don't know some of this this this story On this is uh I'm pulling this up.
it is a little little unbelievable.
So this this guy, and this is just sad, he It was an unprovoked attack. It's described as sending shockwaves through New York. He was 32. He was a poet and activist. They lived in th he lived in New York for thirteen years.
And he was helping to organize waste policy campaigns for the New York Public Interest Research Group. And he also wanted to raise awareness for overdose prevention centers, et cetera. He was a big-time activist, right? And He his girlfriend is was this uh Uh Claudia Morales. And She was a so she was apparently an activist also.
She was a BLM activist and some other stuff. She had the ACAB t-shirt on, which means all cops are. Yeah. And She I'm I'm just pointing out she was an activist, he was an activist.
So they were on their way home. uh after a wedding And it was this unprovoked attack. This guy was, you know, Carson was seen in the video backing away before the man lunged at him at this bus stop. He tripped over the bench and the man pulled out a knife and stabbed him multiple times in the chest. Then he spit in Morales' face and fled the scene.
And This I just said it's sad. And there's a couple of things, too, that I see in all of this because I'm like, the way that it's being reported on and the way that it's, you know, somebody's activism doesn't mean that you. It's not a death sentence. I do think that's the reason social justice, though, has created all of the mess on the streets. That's the thing that's undeniable.
is that You know, social justice is, you know, they've. Uh really It's created a dangerous, unsafe environment in which criminals are coddled and the innocent are expected to put up with it because that's the new fairness. And he apparently, like, Carson tried to diffuse the situation and Uh, you know, the attacker wasn't having it. Here's the, but see, here's the thing: if he were to have done something or defended himself, what if he would have actually fought back or been successful in defending himself? And what if he would have killed the guy who was attacking him?
Then he would have been. excoriated like the guy on the subway. It's just sad. This is in New York. All this, I mean, this is happening in New York, it's happening in DC, this is happening, it's just everywhere at this point.
But like I said, I you've got to be honest about The Really, what this, what a lot of you're not, you're not saying that people who are activists deserve to have stuff happen to them, but what you are saying is that. You have to realize what activism when it concerns Pushing social ju restorative justice, what that does. And what it what you end up with and that's what you end up with. I mean this guy's dead. Um You had I mean, and the guy apparently was on drugs.
that killed him.
Now, the guy who was sadly murdered, this was a guy who also promoted safe injection facilities for drug addicts. you know, the girlfriend was very much n against police. I don't know. And I reject the whole I know there's some people out there who are like, well, that's what you get, et cetera. I don't think that the Carson dude was a bad guy.
I think that some of the initiatives that he supported resulted in very, very bad consequences. But There's no room for Schadenfreude here. I mean, safe injection sites and all of that stuff. I mean, what do you think is going to happen with that? I mean, there's a reason why this has failed in a number of areas where they've implemented it.
That's the thing. Talk about being a sanctuary city, or they love to talk about. Being against the wall, or they love talking about safe ejection sites, and then when they have to deal with the consequences of the positions that they take. Then and only then do they, when something horrific happens, then and only then do they, you know, oh, well, maybe. Maybe you were right about this.
I mean, it's sad this guy was stabbed multiple times. by a guy who was on drugs, and we have a society that That makes it to where The innocent are demonized if they protect themselves against the people who are more with a criminal mentality who are empowered. by these same restorative justice policies. I mean, that's the truth with this story. It's sad, it's heartbreaking.
I mean, you can't reason with a guy who is on drugs and is going to stab somebody to death, right? I mean, if they have that intent in their heart and their mind is already that they're on mind-altering substances, there's not, you're not going to sit here and reason with someone. Please don't stab me to death, Mr. Criminal Drug Addict, violent criminal drug addict. Don't stab me to death.
It's just it's awful. But This is also the consequence of those very things that they are promoting. with their advocacy. There are fewer police on the streets. There's less enforcement.
It's easier for people. The access to injections and things like that is made easier. I mean, what did you think was going to happen? It's awful. There's a lot of questions about her, too.
A lot of people were like, why did she just stand there when this is happening, etc.? I I I think she was probably in shock. Do you think that too? I didn't watch all of it, but there were some screenshots. And she just looked like I she was probably legit in shock.
Not everyone is going to react like you think they will. Yeah, my initial thought was like, why aren't you like helping him more feverishly? Instead of her saying, hey, call the police or something or call an ambulance, she's like, go check on that guy. See, I would have pulled out my gun and shot Gilding. Right.
But yeah, it just seemed initially when I saw it, like, why isn't she doing that? It's weird to people like us because we fight back. Yeah. And if you have that mentality if you know that you'd fight back. Uh th that seems weird to us.
I feel like progressivism conditions people to have that reaction though.
So that's why maybe it made sense for her. Because look at it. I mean, all the people who do fight back and defend themselves, they're demonized. They're arrested. Help They're thrown in Rikers Like Jose Auba.
So are you you can't be shocked. That someone who is a far left progressive would stand there, probably in shock, because that's what progressivism conditions you to do. You have to have more concern for the violent criminal. assaulting you than you do for your own innocent life.
So, when I was like looking at some of this, I thought. That's that is really that's maybe that's why it's so odd to us because that is not our mindset. And even if I wasn't armed, Holy cow. I mean, you know. My legs are longer than his arms, so Someone's getting kicked in the neck.
Just saying. I don't know. I just, that is our mindset, but I don't think that that's a progressive mindset.
So that's why it looks so different to us. It's just a sad story. And it's sadly it's going to be another story, another instance. Criminals that have been coddled and accommodated by the state that go off and add to the body count. That is sad.
Now We have to date and stupidity on the way. And I also want to get into it. I have this thing where Claus Schwab. Actually, can I play this real quick? Klaus Schwab announces the end of car ownership.
Who is why does this guy get to make these these demands? Listen to this, Stooge. When we meet for the twentieth, I hope I will have the pleasure still to be invited for the meeting, when we meet for the twentieth Governance Summit. You will use the app. Like Uber.
But not anymore to call some driver. But uh Automatically guided car, a self-driven car. We'll come to your hotel or wherever you are and will bring you to the airport. No, Los Angeles is one of the cities with the heaviest traffic. Who told me in 2030 Los Angeles will be private, car-driven free.
Did you hear the story that I had? of the man, the Scottish man, who was kidnapped by his uh automatic vehicle. And it uh the brakes d would not work and it uh crashed. into a police car. Klaus, did you hear?
This guy's literally from the from Austin Powers. That's like Doctor Evil's Dad. Or his grandfather Who is this guy that gets to make these these demands? And I love it how they present it as, oh, I'm just looking at a beautiful vision of the future. No, you're talking about eradicating private ownership of anything.
Because you will own nothing and you will be happy. Craving a daily dose of intellectual adrenaline? Look no further than the Dana Show podcast, where curiosity meets courage, by following on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. If a member of Congress is not safe on the streets of the nation's capital, who is? Look.
We're grateful and relieved that the congressman is unharmed. We understand what communities are going through across the country, not just in DC. That's why the president took action very early on in his administration to get the American Rescue Plan done without the help of Republicans. That's why every time he puts forward his budget, he makes sure there are billions of dollars to do it. That's just the fact that all you've got to look at is what the president has been able to do this past two years.
There's always going to be more work to be done, but the fact is the president has taken action. His budget? Yeah, what? I don't even know what is this. I don't know.
Oh, my gosh.
Meanwhile, thirty year average mortgages are above eight percent. Tomorrow's gonna be brutal. Charles Payne's going to join us tomorrow to talk about how much how talk about all of the economic suckage that's going to happen. Golly. In the meantime, Democrats tweeted this, quote.
It's unconscionable that Latinas earn fifty seven cents for every dollar a white non-Hispanic man makes in America. We're continuing the fight for pay equity each and every day.
So first off. I thought it was Latinx. Mm. Latin Latinx? That's not polling now.
How do you say that? I don't even know how to say that. Also, this is the bunk wage gap argument. When the first the first time that they tried to to say that women make less on the dollar, they literally did a survey that was so anti-scient, unscientific. That they were comparing things like a nail tech salary to that of a doctor.
I'm not joking you. That's how they got that number. They have to make stuff up to get it. Secondly, there's no such thing as pay equity. There isn't.
This is also garbage. You get First off, what you ask for. You gotta ask for yourself, Hollywood actresses. And they they always oh, well, I didn't get as much as this guy.
Well, A, did your agent advocate for you on your behalf? Because if not, that's not sexism, that's you being stupid and not having a better agent. And then number two, who's bringing the people in? The guy? The the the dude who's Like the headli like the the what is it, what they call it, top billing.
Top build on the movie, like that person, you know, just you know, thought. All right. Kane, Today and Stupidity. All right, it is KJP from Today. As you know, Alejandro Majorkas put out a statement last night saying that a wall needs to go up.
to stem this illegal crossings from these illegal immigrants. Here's what Carine Jean-Pierre said when she was asked about that today.
So border walls in effect of why is the Homeland Security Secretary saying that it's necessary to prevent unlawful entries into the United States? I have not seen that full statement. I know I hear you. I'm just saying I have not seen his full statement on that. What I can speak to is for the President.
The President has been very clear that it was clear today that border walls don't work for some reason. Folks, tomorrow's Friday we made it. We'll have Thomas Massey. We have Charles Payne, Kurt Schlichter, all tomorrow. Have a great night.
Back with you behind the mic tomorrow afternoon. Mm-hmm.
