Monday March 18 - Full Show

Been predicting a bloodbath. What does that mean? He's going to exact a bloodbath? There's something wrong here. How um respectful I am of the American people and their goodness.

But how much more do they have to see from him to understand that this isn't what our country is about? Praising Hitler. praising the Russians. Honestly, condemning our soldiers for losing or dying in war. or being captured in war.

He said, what's wrong with Russia? They defeated Hitler. What about the millions of Americans who risked or gave their lives? What about him saying that soldiers buried in Europe, he didn't want to visit them because they were losers?

Okay, first off. It's Monday and I already want to start swinging. That's Nancy Pelosi. When the hell did he ever praise Hitler? Look, I've got issues with Trump.

But when the hell did he ever praise Hitler? I think somebody's eating too much of her bougie ice cream in her bougie sub-zero bougie freezer in her bougie mansion in San Francisco, and she doesn't know what reality is anymore. This is they're mad, and by they, I mean the left. They're just mad because they have to run for election and you know, heaven forbid.

So they're having this huge tantrum, and they're trying to say that Trump. Threaten to murder everybody? Is that? I'm trying to get my head around the nature, the exact distillation of the actual claim here. Welcome to the program.

It's Dana Lash. God help us. It's Monday. And if we don't have thirsty clout chasers mad over calendars, then we've got thirsty clout chasing Democrats who are mad over the fact that they have to run for reelection. We've got a lot to touch on.

So we're going to get to all of that stuff. Making friends, that's what we do on the program. You can listen coast to coast. You can stream the radio program. You can watch the Simulcas Channel 347 DirecTV as well.

YouTube, Facebook, all of that good stuff. Sign up for the newsletter over at Substack. All right, so first things first, this whole. I listened to the comments, okay?

So he was speaking. Trump was giving his speech. And he was discussing specifically the economy. And he was talking about The auto industry and everything else. And I gotta tell you, I.

I like to call balls and strikes, and I also hold grudges. I hold grudges. It's not a. It's not a a a positive thing for me. But I hold grudges and Pepperidge Farm never forgets.

So It's true. Kane can attest. How long do I hold grudges, dude? I think you're still holding some on me. 2010.

I'm not. I'm just making fun of you for it. I'm just saying it's possible. It's not a grudge because you would know. You would know.

That's true. I'm making fun of you for it. That's true. That's true. But I I get I get aggravated because The primary was run this is why you need to like bring people together and have unity because you have to.

I have friends who are hardcore, hardcore MAGA folks, and I have friends who are I actually kind of bit the head off one. Because they're like, well, I'm just going to be considering voting for RFK Jr. because I did. I'm like, why? Oh, you're and you're a conservative?

Sit down. Shut up. You're going to sit here and vote away gun rights. Mad? First off, this is how politics works.

You don't get everything that you want all the time. People take it way too personally, they get way too buttheart. And I think Trump is one of them. He gets butthurt over everything. I'm going to tell it.

That's true, and you know it. I don't care how much you love him. Shush. That's not what this is about. If you need people to defend you over insane media attacks, you got to be bringing those people into the fold.

This is the time where he's got to be bringing everyone in the fold. And he was saying some things in his speech where I was like, why are you doing this? Then he said the bloodbath thing, which I didn't actually, well, when I heard it, I thought, oh, gosh, the media is going to, because I know the media, they're stupid. They're stupid people. Half of them are stupid and half of them are malicious and they use the dumb ones.

I think that's a fair assessment, right? Yeah, that's a fair assessment.

So he's giving this speech and he's talking about Uh specifically automobile manufacturing. The E V Automobile, like let's even get further in the weeds, EV manufacturing and China's monopoly over EVs. And he was discussing tariffs and all of this other stuff about how we really have to make sure that the United States is on the most advantageous playing field because all of these other countries do all of the they do the same thing with their industries. And so he said this. I know exactly what he was saying, but I also know how stupid the media is because they've done it to me six ways to Sunday for over a decade now.

And I knew immediately I was like, watch. They're going to say that he's calling to kill people. Here's his comment. Do you have this ready to go? This is what he said.

This is what he actually said. Listen, and this, again, context of automobile manufacturing. Unbelievable when I see it, when I see it going. But I got to know all these people. They're very smart, very street-wise.

And I would do the same thing if I had prisons that were teeming with MS-13 and all sorts of people that they've got to take care of for the next 50 years, right? You need the one where he's talking about the specifically. Is it the end of this?

Okay, because this is such a long cut. Way too long.

Alright, let's let's if we can speed it up. And these are tougher than anybody we've got in the country. These are hard to do.

Okay, let's cut. Let's get it out this get it off the screen. We're going to get that ready for you to where it's actually to where we can play it and you can actually see and you don't have to watch five minutes of speech. But or if you can just pull it off the internet, that would be great. The His remark was specifically What would happen if he didn't win reelection?

What's going to happen to the economy? If Republicans, I mean, that's kind of easy to say. If Republicans don't keep control, the power of the purse, if they don't keep control, Of the economic policy of the United States, and that's what Republican control in the House gets you. If they don't keep control of that, Yeah, it's going to be a bloodbath economically. How stupid!

Do the media think everybody is? He has to, well, economically speaking, but he's talking about economics. It's in the entire context of economics. I had the media one time. Right.

knew immediately what they were gonna do. When I was the token conservative, I was like one of the first conservatives alongside Ari Fleischer that they had hired over at CNN. And I had said, I made a joke on Twitter at the time about Barack Obama's State of the Union because he went out there and he was talking about how the Department of Defense was going to be involved in green energy. And he wasn't talking about defense. He was talking about green energy.

And then he was mentioning how NASA was going to be about Muslim outreach. And I made a joke. I had like a series of tweets and I had said, That now, all of these departments are going to be named something completely. Opposite of what, or not even remotely involved with what they are actually named after. And I said, Are we going to create a Department of Space or a Department of Muslim outreach and make that about space?

And then you had Media Matters say, CNN's Dana Lash colon. And they quoted me, and I kept it as my desktop screensaver. They quoted me as saying, Let's Dana Lash, let's shoot Muslims into space. I got a call from standards and practices all over a lie from media matters. And then the media went crazy with it.

Dana Lash wants to shoot Muslims into space. When I made a joke about how if NASA's going to be about Muslim outreach, are we going to have a Department of Muslim Outreach to be about space exploration?

So, this is, I know the media. They've done this to me even before Parkland. They've done it to me forever. They've done it to every other person who doesn't have a D after their name. If you are in commentary, if you're in broadcasting, if you just breathe, you don't even have to be in those things, then they come after you and they will misrepresent what you said.

So here's his comment. And again, he's talking about specifically The economics of losing in November. This was the very basic remark that he said. Listen. We're going to put a 100% tariff on every single car.

That comes across the line, and you're not going to be able to sell those cuts. If I get elected, Now, if I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole country. That's going to be the least of it. It's going to be a bloodbath for the country. That'll be the least of it.

And then he talks about. What that means for manufacturing and what that means for American exports. And so that's so when you hear that, Kane, let me ask you, when you heard that, without any other influential, any media influence, you knew exactly what he was talking about, right? Oh, absolutely. And I went with exactly where you went, and I'm like, oh, they're going to take this out of context intentionally.

It's the weekend, because we knew exactly what they're going to do on the weekend. Yeah. We knew. We knew that. I mean, this is what they do.

This is exactly what they do. We knew what this was going to.

So, oh my gosh, if I could. I'm looking at this. Because his remark, this is if you however much you hate the media, it's not enough. It's not enough. It really isn't.

It really is not. I don't care if you like or dislike Trump. Set that aside for a moment. I am so damn tired of the media doing this to Republicans and conservatives and libertarians and people who don't worship at the altar of the DNC. I am so tired of the misrepresentation.

I have screenshots of headline after headline after headline after headline. Bloodbath, Bloodbath, Bloodbath, Bloodbath. Donald Trump's call Civil War trended on Twitter over the weekend because the left was insisting that Trump was calling for a civil war and for the shedding of blood, innocent blood in the streets. And as Kane reminds me, the same people who were fine with what's that lady's face? She looks like the female Carrot Top.

I can never remember her name. Kathy Carrot Top? Kathy Carrot Carrot Top. It's trans carrot top. It is.

What's her face? Kathy Griffin.

Okay. Trains carrot top when she held a suffered Head. Purported to be Donald Trump's head. Remember, she did it as a quote-unquote joke. The left was fine with that.

They're like, oh, my free speech, but this. He didn't even say that I mean, he said things. If you want to pick it apart, fine, whatever. This is, he wasn't even talking about this. It will be an economic bloodbath.

It will be an absolute economic bloodbath. To lose the House, to lose in 2024, to not affect tax policy, whether it's at the executive level, the congressional level. Bad. Can you play, by the way, the bloodbath compilation? Can I have that?

Can you just inject that as soon as you put it in there?

Sorry, Juan's dying right now. I need it injected into my veins. I just want to give you. This is again a double standard. Are we am I to assume That what we're about to play for you, courtesy of Seth Abramson.

Uh or courtesy actually of uh what is this? Grapium. Yeah. Well, I don't know if this is a graveyard cut or not. It doesn't say, but I don't care.

I don't know. I don't know, whatever. But these aren't old clips. Are we? No, they're recent.

Am I to assume that? that all these people are calling for a civil war. All these people on the left. Let's watch and with the same with the same measure. That they applied to the remark that we heard Trump make about the economic bloodbath.

Let's apply it to this. Listen. Politico.com reports tonight on the, quote, bloodbath at the RNC. Headlines calling it a quote bloodbath. A bloodbath.

Not only is it going to be a bloodbath, but after they leave New Hampshire, it's a bloodbath on her home turf. That's really tough. Trump has left a lot of corpses in his wake. I mean, we have to count the bodies as part of the, quote, MAGA drive to take over Maricopa County. And the headline refers to it as an impending bloodbath.

Columnist Charles Flow has a new piece for the New York Times entitled A Biden Bloodbath. 2018 midterms, you can bet that they 100% are fearing a slaughter. In fact, the word bloodbath and massacre come up frequently. The Republican Party will be destroyed. It's going to be a bloodbath.

There's going to be a bloodbath one way or the other. Bloodbath for Bernie Sanders. It's been a bloodbath there shaping up to be a bloodbath. Head off a bloodbath. I.

I mean, how long does this cloak go? Over two minutes. Two minutes. Over two minutes. Yeah.

Over two minutes, this clip. All these people, bloodbath. It's a slaughter. I mean, golly, it's a slaughter. Just for a while.

The corpses left in his wake. And just for perspective, recent. These are all recent. Cuts. If we were to go back into the annals of history on news, that word has been used millions and millions of times, it'd be a much longer than a two-minute clip.

Mm-hmm.

So we have, as you can imagine, a lot to break down today. We're going to get into the latest with 2024. We have more on Bloodbath Gate because we just affix gate after random things. We've got Calendar Gate. What does that mean?

So the uh Active camping is banned at California Central Coast Beach due to an excess of human waste. Um So, it's not just like I guess the homeless people that they have a problem with. This is horrible. It's in the Big Sur area, the beautiful area. Visitors won't clean up after themselves.

The California Coastal Commission announced that all the hippies camping and the campfires, all that stuff, is going to be banned at San Carporo. I know I didn't say that right, and I don't care because I just don't care about camping. If you like camping, that's great. I don't like pretending to be homeless. We invented the house.

It's located right off the highway. And they said that the beach, known as San Carpo, is the only free beach campsite in the Big Sur area. But nobody can clean up after themselves, so there's trash and all kinds of stuff everywhere. And now they got to close it because nobody. But King, I thought that.

I mean, it's California. They like to recycle and virtue signal about their love of recycling. Marriage rates are up, divorce rates are down according to new data. This is good news. They said the number of marriages began to take a dive around the start of the pandemic, but for the past two decades, the number of marriages stayed about to 78%, 7 to 8 per sorry, 1,000 people a year, according to new data released at the National Center for Health Statistics.

They said in 2020, the marriage rate was down to 5.1 per 1,000, but it started to climb by the next year. And by 2022, it reached 6.2 per capita and over 2 million a year. They said it might just be more than just rescheduling, lockdowns, gay people, hurdles do over. I don't care. The divorce rates are going down, and that's happy.

It's a good thing. It's a good thing. And they said also intentionality is behind. They think that might be behind declining divorce rates.

So that's good. Good for America. The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to intervene in a lawsuit over West Texas AM drag shows, meaning that the president can cancel it. The President Walter Wendler, according to the Texas Tribune.

Check out the best highlights from every show in Dana's Absurd Truth Podcast, posted daily from The Dana Show. When Trump talks about poisoning the blood of America and he's talking about migrants, when he refers to them as animals and he's talking about migrants, when he's referring to them as not people, as invaders, let me tell you, people who hate folks like that, they're not going to stop and ask you if you have a U.S. citizenship or a U.S.

passport. They're going to shoot first and then ask questions.

Okay, first off, welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you, bottom of this. First hour. Kane, go ahead and set the tone right now. On a scale of one to ten, how many do you want me to be right now?

Yeah. Uh nine point five Seems kind of tame. You think? Yeah, Steve, you get a vote. I know what your 9.5 is.

You think that's tame? I mean, some things just deserve, you know. Kane scale 1 to 10. Kane votes 9.5. See, Steve knows too.

That is so. What did I do wrong with you boys? What did I do? What did I do? I mean, I tell you what, you gents, what did I do wrong?

You got to leave room for improvement. I mean, there's all the numbers above 10. It's just not, you know, on the scale, is all I'm saying. 21.

So you want to chew.

Okay. Let's put it like this.

So, first off, that was What's Her Face? The chick that's on The View that used to be Republican until she realized that no one gave, no one cared about any of her opinions and she couldn't get any traction at all whatsoever. And then she got a guest gig on The View and then she lobbied extensively to get hired full-time there. And then she married this guy who used to run CPAC. And then she realized how celebrity adjacent, you know, she formalized that union, all this would be.

And so she's been just like her Instagram is, I haven't seen it. I just saw an article on Daily Mail one day that who I hate. I hate Daily Mail, but it's all name-dropping and trying to basically inflate the sense of self-importance or importance in general way more than it actually is. The only people that care, I think, about the views' opinions are, I don't, I just like making fun of them, are the people who give them on the view. I can't imagine any woman turning it on in the afternoon and being like, okay, I'm going to watch this.

This is the show I'm going to have on now. I mean, I don't even I I don't understand. Maybe like back in the days of yore, I could get the idea, but I don't understand the concept anymore. For her to go out and say, Oh, well, they're just gonna start shooting people w uh based on what? I mean, you when you when you say stuff, And you're volunteering an opinion on a national stage, you know, you kind of need to make sure that it's A, educated, and B, it makes sense, and C, maybe give a, I don't know, like a little bit of data to perhaps support your accusation.

Because the only people that I keep getting that I keep seeing getting killed over and over again are youths involved in youths, young adults involved in gang and drug crime, and Christian kids by trans activists. Those are the people that I keep seeing, you know, the people that the left doesn't care about the most. That's who I keep seeing getting killed.

So I don't know. I don't understand her whole point with this. They're talking about the bloodbath remark. And The idea that because he said there's going to be an economic bloodbath, they're really stretching with us. There might be some people who buy into it.

So that's why I say, as much as you dislike the media, you don't hate them enough. I have hated the media proudly for almost 20 years now, professionally. I did it as a hobby and do what you love, right? Just absolutely cannot stand the media. Cannot stand them.

I actually got started in. uh editorial writing by creating an anonymous website that Just absolutely criticized and destroyed and ridiculed all the editorial writers in arts and entertainment in my hometown of St. Louis. And interestingly enough, I ran it out of a basement of an abandoned building on Washington Avenue. I have stories.

Those are the days. But anyway. I digress. The Point of this is they're trying to convince low-info voters. That Trump is talking about killing everyone if he doesn't get re-elected.

And then you have this from What's Her Face, this other chick. Yeah, whatever. Audio Sunbate 7. This this chick. Good night.

I saw a seven and I just went with it. 17,000, please. One character says to another, you know, we took all the things that the Jews had. We took their homes, we took their jewelry, we took all of those things, and now the next step is to dehumanize them, to make sure that they have, to show people that they have no soul, that they are not human. And he is using that kind of World War II rhetoric that led to the deaths of six, the murders of six million people.

And now he is otherizing brown people. He is otherizing black people. He is saying things like this. I don't think you're going to have another election if I don't win. Or certainly not an election that's meaningful.

What do you what do you think saying that uh well if you don't vote for me you ain't black? What if you want to talk about otherizing people? Because that's what Joe Biden said. Joe Biden said that. That was a comment that Joe Biden said.

If you don't vote for me, you ain't black. That was a comment that he actually had made.

So. Uh Is that otherizing too? I would just think if you're going to have a conversation about what is or isn't otherizing, then that would be. That that would be a a big one. This is all because he had said there's going to be a bloodbath and he was talking about the economics of it.

I'm so tired of this stuff. I'm so tired of these people making up stuff and looking for axes to grind. But you know what? It's not just limited to the left. Sadly, it happens on the right.

It's time to address this because I had to look at it Sunday on St. Patty's Day of all things. I have some Irish ancestry, so I come by it honest. That four months ago. I did the calendar with, um Uh also right beer.

And make sure you use Codana. You'll get a big discount. I put the link up on Instagram.

So I did this calendar with Ultra Rite, Ultra Right Beer. And I always look, I. I am in shape, I'm healthy, but at the same time, I also have sons. I have kids and I have a husband. And so I'm like, if other women who are, I think, single and not yet married, if they want to get in swimsuits and they want to do a calendar that celebrates women, that's fine.

I'm gonna hold my guns and I'm gonna be in a t-shirt and jeans. And that was my particular choice. And I had no problem appearing in a calendar with other women who were celebrating femaledom. And it's all pretty women in the calendar. And it was done to help the Riley Gaines Center and the Ultra Right Beer people did it.

And it's, you know, it's a nice calendar. And I actually signed one for someone over the weekend. I've signed peop people someone sent it in and I signed it and it's going b I think all the the women in the calendar are signing it. And this thing came out, what was it, four or five months ago? This calendar came out?

And people have been mad about it. And by people, I mean like I've only seen one person ever complain about it. And I don't want to get into I'm not going to get into like a battle with people and all of this stuff. particularly when you wouldn't want to battle with me. I still hold a grudge for having to have been called into HR by a previous employer for trying to settle a dispute that someone who likes to complain a lot caused with all of the other women at the workplace.

And I hate, this is why I hate dealing with women in the workplace. And I was begged, please mediate this situation. Please, for the love, calm it down. I just think that there are some people who always, I cannot stand people who'd make a career out of bitching about everything all the time. That's not commentary, that's just complaining.

That's just being a professional complainer.

So this calendar, when it came out, you know, four some odd months ago. I thought that it was tastefully done. There's not anything that's slutty in there. There's not anything that's advocating for promiscuity or drug use or alcoholism or anything like that that's in this calendar. And it's a calendar that was done by people on the right.

It was never done so that to be a church statement. Or a faith statement, a statement of faith was never, it was not done. And I don't think anything, honestly, I don't have a problem, and I don't think anything cancels out one or the other. If you have a problem with women in swimsuits, don't ever let me see you in one. Don't ever let me see you going to a place where women are in swimsuits.

If you want to be Sharia adjacent and you want to try to shame women because they were asked to be in a calendar and you weren't, that's your problem, not theirs. And that's ultimately what this is. The New York Times and Daily Mail ran this huge story over the weekend saying that it was raunchy. They attacked yours truly and all the other women in the calendar based on the complaints of like, I can't, again, it's like one person. And I always do find it ironic the people who complain about other women while taking selfies of themselves because they think they look good and they want other people to acknowledge that they look good and they're selfie, and so they post it far and wide.

You know, if you want to have a discussion about irony. and compromising one's beliefs. And I think that Also, insinuating that women who participated in the calendar are somewhat loose, or they're raunchy, or they are in some way betraying their faith. If you want to be a modern-day Pharisee, go right ahead. But I don't think that your accusations or the motivations are in any way based in any kind of, you know, they're not biblically based.

And I also think that it's not the Matthew way of solving disputes. That being said, I think it's all stupid. I think it's petty. I think it's just people who were mad that they weren't asked to be in a calendar and they're attacking women who were. And that's usually what this stuff boils down to.

There's enough clout out there for everyone without other women trying to tear down other women. This is I don't get along with a lot of women because of that. It is, there are, there are few women in this industry, particularly, and I can name them right now that I like and I think that are, they, they understand that there is not some sort, that there's not a quota on influence or space at the table, or there's, there's, there's, you don't have to compete to be heard like that. And there are one of them, my friend Carol Roth and I, were talking about this over the weekend. Carol Roth is absolutely one of the women who gets it.

Love Carol Roth. Megan Kelly is one of the women who gets it. Mary Catherine Hamm is one of the women who gets it. Liker or hater, Megan McCain is one of the women who gets it. There are some really good ladies out there.

Judge Janine is one of the women who gets it. There's some really, really good ladies out there who understand that there is not some sort of scarcity of attention or clout, and they don't have to tear down other women in order to lift themselves up. It's a tactic that feminists use. They think that they tear down men to lift themselves up, which is why it's incredibly ironic to see anybody who's in the conservative sphere do that. There's nothing wrong with this calendar.

And my husband was the one who actually said, Yeah, I think you should do this. This seems like it's a good idea. I think it's a good idea. I don't have anything to be concerned about. My husband doesn't have anything to be concerned about.

And these ladies, some of the ladies are married, some of them aren't.

Some of them are single, some of them aren't.

Some of them have kids, some of them don't. There's nothing wrong with a woman being in a swimsuit. I mean, there's nothing wrong with a calendar celebrating femaledom. I don't know if you've seen some of these articles, but they're trying to now divide the right and say What was one of them? The New York Times said that it was Raunchy, like the Raunchy Riot or something like that.

They've been calling me all kinds of names for firearms. Forever. If I wear a t-shirt, I get attacked. If I wear jeans, I get attacked. When I cut my hair, I was accused of having extensions.

I've been accused of having a boob job, plastic surgery, hair extensions, cane, name it. Lip filler. Everything. Yeah. Yeah.

I've been accused of having my face frozen, which is weird because I can move it. Huh? Wigs, wigs. No one's ever accused me of actually having a wig. I've seen that.

Oh, you have? Oh, yeah. That's a new one. Yeah. I've been accused of all these things that I've never done, and I'm like, whatever.

I'm so tired of this. And it's from, and it's mostly from like the jealous petty left. But to see it come up from the right is really disappointing. But the New York Times they were saying the raunchy right, what was it, the Daily Mail was trying to say that the right was having a problem with these women, et cetera, et cetera. Again, It's a created clout chasing tantrum that the media is seizing upon and trying to make into a bigger thing than it.

it's into something that it's not. Four months after the fact. And it was a jealous petty leftist lady over at the New York Times who wrote the piece. She never reached out to any of us. She didn't reach out to any of us and ask us a question.

She didn't ask us if we would like to submit a comment on her hit piece on us, on our characters. And I gotta tell you, and this is where I'm really gonna get snotty. It is very difficult for me. A woman who's older to take criticism about how I or other ladies live my life when they haven't raised children as successfully as I have and they don't have a 23-year going on 24-year successful marriage like I do.

So, when you can match me in terms of my homemaking skills and my successful marriage skills and my mothering skills, then maybe I'll consider your opinion. But if you cannot match me year for year, have a million seats. And seen. Have you seen any of those viral videos, the ones that show aisles stacked with emergency food supplies in stores?

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. I was very happy to see Northern Ireland's Executive Assembly reinstated last month.

Now Northern Ireland is a fully functioning government again, and I didn't envision your colleague.

So So Kane was asking me to. Interpret what he said. And I'm like, I don't, dude, I don't speak Martian. I have no clue what he says. what he said here.

Mm. Ooh, I don't know. Wh what? Can I hear it one more time? Is it I mean, it was St.

Patty's Day yesterday. Maybe he's like yeah.

Okay, go ahead, let me go ahead. Go ahead. I was very happy to see Northern Ireland's Executive Assembly reinstated last month.

Now Northern Ireland is a fully functioning government again. And I didn't invent your colleague. Is he speaking like Gaelic? No. Gobbledygook in Gaelic.

They'll start with G, but they're not the same. Doesn't sound like he's speaking any kind of Celtic language. I got Northern Ireland out of that. But that's all I got. Yeah, but that doesn't mean, you know Then Fully functioning company.

Does he mean country? North A is a fully functioning company again. I dign up big shock, holly. Colleague K I don't know. Um Yeah, this is um This is our president.

Well, he was. I don't I don't know I don't know what that is I can't I can't I can't make I can't make that make sense for you guys, I'm sorry. That's my job and I can't make that make sense for you. What? What do you think that the people in the audience do?

You never see their faces. When he does this stuff. I am so expressive. That's why you can't. Whenever we get screen grabs of my face for YouTube stuff, I know I annoy the hell out of everybody because I'm constantly very expressive.

I would not be able to hide my Expression. I w and you know he would he sees that. Right. Especially when you're in front of people that aren't your like-minded, super-friendly American left. If you're overseas, or if you're talking to people who are from other countries.

They may not be as ingratiated. you know, as your base. I don't know. I'm just like, what does he what does he think when he sees the confusion and amusement on their faces? I'm just curious about this.

We have a whole other hour on the way. We got Gamergate two point oh. The E V wars. Immigration, a lot more. Stick with us.

We saw him call on his supporters to storm the Capitol four years ago, and he's doubling down promoting violence this time around. And this is just right out of the playbook. Trump is weak and deeply insecure about this election, and he's only in it for himself. Our campaign has been saying this for months, and Trump is saying the quiet part out loud. And the people who are saying that his comments were taken out of context haven't said anything about all the other things that Trump has done.

So that's one of Biden's mouthpieces. You know, because Biden's in the race for everyone else, not to enrich his family or for his own. personal. you know, his own personal advantage. He's you know, he's in it for all of you, I'm sure.

Yeah. Okay. That's Quentin Foulkes. Who is, I don't know who he is. He's some guy with Biden's campaign.

They're trying to push this bloodbath thing. And I listen to the remark, and it's dumb. That people are making a big deal out of it because it's literally you have to be remedial as all get out in order to be Amelia Bedelia about this. But it's our Amelia Bedelia price. You guys remember?

Well, first off, welcome back. Top of the second hour, Dana Lash with you. You can listen around the country, you can stream at channel 347 direct TV.

So I was a kid in the 80s going into the 90s, and I remember.

Some of you may not, like Steve and Juan, will have no idea about this. Amelia Bedelia. It was a series of books. That It was really an elementary school, I remember, that our teacher would read to us, and Amelia Bedelia was like this. character who would take her employer's instructions literally like figures of speech she interpreted literally.

And each story was about that. And she would get herself into tons of trouble because she would interpret things very literally. And that's what our press is doing right now. We played for you at the top of last hour a compilation. It was over two minutes of the media saying bloodbath, bloodbath, bloodbath, slaughter, all this other stuff, talking about elections or this policy or that policy, et cetera.

And, you know, they didn't. Nothing. They thought that was fine, but Trump is talking about it. And we played his full speech.

Well, not his full speech, the full remark. He was talking about the economy and manufacturing and what happens if Republicans lose in 2024. It will be an economic bloodbath. And he didn't even qualify it with the term economic because he didn't have to. Anybody that has, I don't care if you like him or hate him, don't debase yourself and act like a moron by pretending that you think he was talking about murdering people.

Everybody out there who's saying that he's talking about a civil war and killing people because he said bloodbath, when he's having a giant, making a huge, giant remark about. EV manufacturing, trade with China, the economic consequences of a Republican loss in November. And you have, again, these people out here debasing themselves, acting as though they're too damn stupid to understand what he actually meant.

So they're going to interpret it Amelia Bedelia's style, literally. We were talking about some of the other phrases that you probably can't say around them. Like, what did you say? The proof is in the pudding cane. You can't hide evidence in actual foodstuffs.

Who's literally hiding evidence in pudding? Hunter? I mean, what is that? Or that's the way the cookie crumbles. We're just going out there.

Look at these Republicans going out there smashing desserts. They're smashing cookies, or as the Brits would say, biscuits. That's what it is. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. They're out there putting birds in bushes.

Damned Republicans. I like uh what was it that the Babylon Beast says How the uh media reports that Trump threatened nuclear war after he says this guacamole is the bomb. It's true. It's true. Absolutely true.

I don't think this is. And there's a reason why, if you notice. whenever they are talking about his his remarks or whenever you read uh an editorial Or even Um A news piece, same thing anymore. where they're discussing his remarks, they never actually include His remarks They don't actually play them. They don't actually like put the transcript in, they don't do that.

Because People with more than one brain cell to rub together will look at it and go, that's okay, that's not what he said. When people on the right do this stuff, People on the right call it out because we don't have time for dishonesty or deceptiveness. People on the left are like, oh, no, that's what you said. They can't police themselves. They never police themselves.

They only do it if it's advantageous and they want the seat. That's it. for another Democrat. That's it. But this is dumb to sit here and make this out.

I mean, it's trending still. We're calling it Bloodbath Gate.

So now we have Gaza, everything's gay today.

Now we've got Gaza Gay. Did you guys see this video? Oh boy.

So this dude. who is an activist in Gaza. He Is Is this like a it The best way that I can describe it is he's like reviewing the contents. Of what the air and it wasn't just the United States. I don't think we should have had any part in it, but apparently Egypt and Jordan also dropped stuff over.

They were doing airdrops to Gazans because Hamas, their terrorist elected government that said they were going to take care of the people and never did, and still enjoy overwhelming popularity and were re-elected and were elected in 2005 and almost re-elected again and almost took control of West Bank. They apparently can't provide this to Gazans themselves because well, because they've been taking it all for themselves.

So the airdrops, they were dropping like what, food and other supplies to into Gaza. And this dude decides to review it. That's it's a review, right? It's a review of the contents of this. Listen to this.

This is Audio Soundbite 14.

So as the airdrops have been dropping in the north, I've been able to buy this today. from the northern, northern, northern part of Prague. That's where most of their truck has been brought. And it's from the Department of Defense, United States of America. This is their drop the drop on us, this small.

And then all the airstrikes that they also hit us with.

So I wondered what's in it. It comes for free, but at the end we still have to buy it. Let's see what's in it.

So It starts with the top, crackers. And then Apple applesauce And then, oh, wow, come. What's this? This is like some I don't know. But I see these Neutral energy wire.

This is the most thing I'm excited to have. Hmm, French vanilla. Uh Cash juice.

So nuts. Uh peanut butter. And So overall, it just One of the worst meals I've ever had. Oh my gosh. I literally ate.

A piece of everything because Yeah, they imagine him first in LV. hungry, haven't eaten anything, and then I came to eat this Okay. Nothing. Tastes good. Only the peanut butter.

It tastes like our Canadian peanut butter. Everything else. See's Canadian. This whole meal is like a 2 out of 10. Not even a 1 out of 10 actually.

This is this is torturing us more. Then it's being a. I promise you, dude, it can't torture us, all of the rest of us, any more than your video can. I mean, I feel tortured by your video. I feel like I need to make an appeal to the people behind the Geneva Convention, even though I know it doesn't cover terrorism.

But your video was terrorism. That's so stupid. I'm so sorry, Princess, that it wasn't, you know, the style of Ruth's Chris. I I was expecting a uh Porterhouse steak. And uh me you know, I was expecting a filet mignon, medium rare.

With maybe some bearinades, and uh I didn't get that in my uh MRE that was dropped for what does he say he had to pay for it? He's not in Gaza, I guess he's in Canada right now, so. He would have to have bought he would have to have bought that. But if they're dropping it on the ground, In Gaza. You could just pick it up unless you have to pay Hamas to get it.

Do you know how that works?

So, if Hamas is collecting it, and then charging you for it. That's your problem with Hamas. Notice how he doesn't actually qualify that or explore that beyond his initial comment.

So he's reviewing the food. What did he think that there was going to be like a Gordon, like Gordon Ramsey was going to be. up in the sky, just cooking stuff to order and dropping it down. Maybe you should have thought about that before Gazans elected a terrorist organization as their representative government in 2006. Maybe you should have thought of that.

Maybe you should have thought of that before you kept supporting them. And then they enjoyed overwhelming Support to the point where they suspended elections because everyone was worried that they were going to take over the West Bank. Maybe you wouldn't be eating an energy bar.

Well, can you imagine complaining about that?

Well, there are children in parts of the world that are actually starving to death and going hungry, and they don't have the luxury of having food, you know, high caloric food dropped off. from the air for them to eat. Imagine being this guy wearing an expensive puffer coat and a new balance hat and sitting there with your dumbass iPhone and recording how you are displeased with the free food provided to you by the government that the elected terrorist government doesn't like. Imagine being that privileged and out of touch. Or imagine doing this interview and not knowing, or doing this review, and not knowing.

Imagine doing it and not knowing what our men and women in uniform eat when they're overseas, when they're deployed. Theta Marty's That's what they that they eat that pretty routinely. He had French vanilla in that. You know how broke a lot of people in the United States are? They can't even afford French vanilla and you're getting it for free in a taxpayer-funded food case?

Gum. Yeah, you get gum? You get you know how expensive cashews are? You know how expensive nuts are? He th he's getting that?

That's going in that food pouch? Good night. Now he's all mad. He's mad because he was expecting, I don't know, I guess a f you know, four star meal. He was expecting Michelin grade.

War has consequences, and so do terrorists. But He says that says that that food was more torture than it was egg. Nothing could be Well, there are a few things. But it's not more torturous than having to watch that video. Really isn't.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss, it's time for Dana's Quick Five.

So AMC clinches a deal with NBC to show live Olympics coverage in theaters. Boy, I'm so excited about that, aren't you? Listen to the joy and excitement in my voice. Mm-hmm.

Are you excited about that, Kane? You wanna go into a theater and watch the Olympics in the theater? Yeah. With all the commercials in the theater. With the big popcorns and the big sodas.

You can do that at home. The big popcorns? I'm the mom who's like, we got that at home. Yeah, theater popcorns. You can make theater popcorn at home.

You have to do it old school, but you can do it. Kettle corn? You ever do that at home? Yeah. Good stuff.

They said that they're very excited about it. NBC Universal, they're going to present it as a live ticketed event.

So you could watch it for free at home or you could pay to go and watch it in the theater with all the commercials. Gee, that sounds fun. No, but said nobody ever. Uh What? Is this?

What is this? Wall Street Journal. Cain sent this, and I hate him for it now. The headline, what uh What if a toe spacer? We're enough to boost your fitness.

Sidebar, you know, we got feed enthusiasts out there who watch. I'm not even kidding you. I never put pictures of anything below ankle. I swear to you, because there have been some weird things that have happened. They're gonna seize on this conversation now.

These goofy things that apparently you put on your feet to space your toes out. They said, are becoming a trendy tool for elite athletes. Says who? Why does the person's feet look like they're hefty? I don't, I'm curious.

They're toe spacers anything to sell something anything to make a buck That's so nasty. A shopper was banned from Bucky's because he brought his service duck into the Tennessee store. I thought this was America. His service duck. Wrinkle the duck.

Its name's Wrinkle. It was in a stroller. The duck was in a stroller. His service pet Wrinkle the Duck, was brought into a Buckeye's. And Wrinkle was inside the stroller for most of the visit.

He would come out to high five interested onlookers. Oh, sorry, her with her being. You should have named her Wrinklette or something. I don't know. It has its own YouTube thing: 2.7 million subscribers.

And an employee said that service dogs were the only animals allowed. Wood said, Well, she's a service duck. And they said pets are not allowed. And he goes, well, she's a service animal. And then he was asked to prove it.

I don't know how you prove that. Um but Yeah. And so the employee said if you put the duck on a leash, it would be okay. And he. Put Wrinkle on an imaginary leash, and the duck followed him all around the store.

The duck was in the stroller, though. I actually have no problem with the duck. I think this is just all something over, and now I want one. Uh, let's see here. Oh, let's go to where's the okay.

There is a correct way of hanging the toilet paper roll, and the toilet paper is supposed to go over. How do I know this? Because they actually have the patent for this whole setup. It came out, it was published on the internet several years ago, showing that the toilet paper front-facing is the correct way. Behind it is not the correct way.

So I've always been on team toilet paper in the front. That's how it's done.

So that is the exact correct way.

So now there's a story out saying, yes. This is the way, correct way to do it. And again, it was the uh, you could see the actual patent, and the patent shows how it's supposed to, how it's supposed to be. It's not even a debate, not a debate. Oh, guess what, guys?

Putin won, quote unquote, re-election. It's easy to win re-election when you like kill everybody. Close, yeah, it was like uh, he ended up getting almost 90% of the vote. Wow. Real close one there, huh?

Real tough election. Yeah, they said yeah, he got over well, it was almost 88% of the vote. Yeah, such a nail biter. This is his fifth term. He was elected first about 20 years ago in late 1999.

He is going to be Russia's longest-serving leader since Catherine the Great. He served even longer than Stalin.

Now, there's a tagline for you. Stay with us because we've got Gamergate. EV wars, and so much more. This is why courses like the free one that they're offering right now at Hillsdale, and they have a bunch of free resources, by the way. They have some really awesome.

But historian Victor Davis Hanson, right now, the latest online course, he's leading it. It's called American Citizenship and Its Decline.

I've gathered today, however, to address specifically the injustices that we have seen in federal marijuana policy. I have said many times, I believe, I think we all at this table believe, nobody should have to go to jail for smoking weed. And what we need to do is recognize that far too many people have been sent to jail for simple marijuana possession. How many people did she send to jail for POT?

All of them? Uh that's uh the Vice President Kamala Harris. They're trying to make a play for. Uh I I don't know, like uh Pot smokers and I guess libertarians and All of this. She teamed up with Fat Joe to talk about easing marijuana, to talk about marijuana reform.

Welcome back to the program, you know. Dana Lash here with you. Good to be back with you. Bottom of this. Second hour.

She's got a weird history with it, though. I mean, when she was the top cop in California. Remember she was the A G. She, and when she was the prosecutor, like the head prosecutor, she sent. Let's see, this is Mercury News.

She oversaw more than 1,900 pot convictions in San Francisco. It all had to do with marijuana. It was higher than all of her predecessors. She actually prosecuted Tons of marijuana cases. When she was in California.

So to hear her do this now seems slightly ever so disingenuous. I mean, that's been her This is her entire history. This is her history. They said that Uh it was a lot of low level for like pot possession. Uh they her defenders tried to say, oh well, there were only you know Uh a few people Who uh were actually sent to State prison for marijuana convictions.

It was only a few, but she, that's not the point. She prosecuted. A ton of them. And she fought a ballot measure in 2010. That legalized recreational pot.

I'm not, I'm not, I don't smoke pot. I'm not like a. what you would call a pot person. Mm-hmm.

My whole point with this is She is was literally the Most hardcore regulator and enforcer of. Marijuana, criminalization of marijuana than anybody, even Republican. She outmeasured Republicans.

So that's why this is so weird to see. This now. They said that she had wide latitude. She could decide which marijuana cases to prosecute and what sentences to seek. And She was she She criticized her predecessor.

Over his office's low conviction rate, she said she was going to run a tighter ship. And even though she focused her rhetoric on violent crime, She went after Marijuana misdemeanor and felony convictions. Actually, it was 1,000 it was approximately 1,956 misdemeanor and felony convictions for marijuana possession, cultivation, and or sale As her as set for within a seven-year period. And that's according to publicly available data from the California DA's Office. And They said that there were a lot more arrests in, it wasn't just that there were more.

uh convictions, there were a ton more arrests. as well. Even if not everybody who was convicted of arrested was that they weren't they didn't make it to court. They said that Uh let's see. I mean, she had uh I mean, golly, this went over seven years.

This was crazy the amount of people that she sent.

So now. She wants to borrow, I guess, credibility from Fat Joe and be like, okay, well, you know, I don't really mean it. We're going to ignore this. We're going to talk about some. She now calls it regressive policies.

That's how she describes it. She never. acknowledges her part in it. She just says that There are existing regressive policies over it. This is all, as Kane says.

Intentional.

Now I think this goes, I don't think this is just with the black community, Kane. I do think that they're trying to make very obvious, like almost Racial plays, I think, to the black community with the stuff that they're doing in Michigan and some of this other stuff. But Uh Aren't they also beating mentbolls? Isn't this administration behind Bannie Menthol's? Yeah, I did hear that.

I haven't followed up on that story in a while. What demo? for whatever reason I don't understand why. Like clove cigarettes are good with hippies. Menthols are apparently more popular with the black community than not.

I have no idea why. I don't understand the menthol thing. Isn't that, are you trying to freshen your breath while you smoke cigarettes? I've heard it explained that it's stronger, just like. Like a different type of beer, like malt liquor, would be stronger than regular beer.

They gravitate towards that. Just like. The menthol cigarette apparently is a little stronger than the regular cigarette, and I think that's why they gravitate towards that. I've heard that explanation. This seems like a totally this is a dumb play.

They want to make I I I guess everything about abortion for women. They're going to look at pot for the black community. Baby killing for the female community, pod for the black community. What This is so bad. It's so bad.

I don't think they're gonna let her do any more interviews where they ask her what type of music she listens to because that didn't go over so well the last time either. Speaking of like overregulation and every I look, with the whole thing with marijuana, I think it's crazy that there are people who have been and I I've given examples on this program before. We've talked about the stories, how you have offenses for more serious crimes that are far longer and more punitive than ser than than Uh that's how marijuana offenses are treated, but then like I don't know, assault, rape. Other instances seem to get Kind of a wrist slap and more recidivism with us. I don't know.

I just. It seems a little unbalanced the approach right If you want to talk about regulation and restriction. But then again at the same time, I'm uncomfortable with the government deciding what people can, even if I don't want any part of it and I wouldn't advise anybody to have part in it. I also wouldn't advise that the alternative be the government can tell you what you can and can't have. I mean, the government's been telling you that cigarettes are okay.

They allow it to be sold because they say it's okay. The FDA is a cartel. As much as they run down the Mexican cartel and the mafia and everything else, my gosh, the FDA is the same damn thing. I want to switch gears and talk about Gamergate. Because apparently they had a big dust.

You guys know the original Gamergate? Basically, it was. Chicks who wanted to pose as gamers and wrote crappy games were trying to like. Pedal influence and relations to get positive reviews in the press. That's pretty much how it went.

I think that's an accurate representation, right? And I I don't care what people think about if you play the games or not. This is a subsection of American culture, or just cultural in general. That has been kind of wide open for a while, and I would caution Republicans to not disregard it. I played casually my entire life.

I played. Literally, I was playing Mortal Kombat right up until I gave birth to my first son. And uh I've I started with Duck Hunt, I played Doom. I used to be a PC player and then consoles came got real popular and I I have an Xbox now. And I play casually now.

My kids have gotten me into certain things. And I enjoy it. It's fun. You know, everybody's got a hobby. Everybody's got, you know, it's a lot of fun.

But I think that there is. I I d I'm of two minds of it. I don't want the politization of it because I like the escape from it. But at the same time, I also think that Republicans shouldn't disregard it. As a great way for voter outreach, and maybe not, maybe speak in a more educated fashion when you're talking about games and the gaming community.

Because there are some people who are on the right who act like video games are bad. Whenever I see people run down video games and say, oh, they're violent, they lead to violent things, you are literally using the exact gun control argument that the left uses. Just switch out the variable. And that's ultimately what it is. It's the, it's the, you're switching out variables.

Uh if you think that that you know, gaming and gamers. I had said to somebody before, That You know, if I'm irresponsible with insert variable here. That means you must be banned from it, or variable must be heavily regulated. That doesn't make any sense.

So to this point, I wanted to bring this up because this is now The Administration They are targeting gamers for what they say. is Spreading disinformation. This is one of several things. You have federal agencies now secretly collaborating with gaming companies to monitor and fight domestic extremism. They say there's a report by the GAO revealing undisclosed collaboration between FBI, DHS, and huge companies like Roblox, Discord, and Reddit.

They add that the report warns of quote unquote extremists. using aesthetics, humor, and memes. Oh no Not the memes. It's censorship. Through gaming.

And They have been deliberately targeting gaming sites for censorship. to stop Average everyday citizens from forming interpretations of the world that differ from mainstream sources. This is the United States government using our tax dollars to stop people from disagreeing with what they see in the media. Twitchy has a great collection of all these screenshots. They say, I mean, I'm looking at.

It's page 37 on the disinformation primer. They say, quote, understanding alternative media spaces, which is how they classify gaming, because you have gaming lobbies and you can have chat during gaming and all of this stuff. They say discussions on disinformation and misinformation often revolve around assumptions of state actors driving the issue.

However, problematic information more regularly originates from networks of alternative sites and anonymous individuals who've created their own alt media online spaces. And they get into Reddit, Discord, 4chan, and gaming sites. They say that The information on these sites, like conspiracy theories, might seem silly to outsiders, but to users, these spaces enable them to collaborate and validate their own claims and interpretations of the world that differ from mainstream sources. With this, individuals contribute their own research to the larger discussion, collectively reviewing and validating each other to create a populist expertise that justifies, shapes, and supports their alternative beliefs. That's what the media wants to happen on the left, and they get mad that there is a challenge from someone using the same tactics either independently or on the right.

And there's a lawsuit that America First Legal filed that unearthed this disinformation primer revealing all of this.

So many people are on Discord. They all chat on Discord. They have discussions and they connect with friends on Discord. Just because it's a foreign concept to other people doesn't mean that it is a nefarious thing. This is a new generation.

Technology has made hanging out with friends different from everyone throwing their bikes on the friend's front lawn and going inside and playing Nintendo. It is the new technological, more technologically advanced version of that. Right? And that's all this is. And people are acting like they're a bunch of terrorists or extremists because they gather in these spaces and they discuss.

So that, I mean, now they're essentially wanting to spy on people. when they play video games. That's kind of like what this is. That's what that's how they're promoting this. This is awful.

I mean this is And they always act like, oh, it's a bunch of white guys. Not just white guys play games. I guess people don't realize this. I mean, I am a 40-something-year-old woman, and I play video games. I played games my entire life casually.

There are girls Women, men, boys, black, white, Asian, everything. Jewish gamers, Christian gamers, atheist gamers. It is like the one place where people can go. It's either gaming, anime, or I mean, even K-dramas. God love them.

K-dramas are so free of all of this stuff. Yay. There's hardly any space where people can go to get away from everybody's nonstop BS. I'm so tired of this stuff. And if that's not bad enough, now you have...

What is it? One company that got hit because apparently they were it was like some Gamergate 2.0 stuff and they were trying to impugn the gaming community as a whole. They're trying to wokeify everything. They're trying to make everything, every gaming experience like damn Borderlands. If you've ever played Borderlands, it's so damn woke, it is unenjoyable and insufferable.

I downloaded it. I even played the Tiny Tina's adventure and I deleted it. The gameplay is amazing. The graphics are great, but I don't need a rainbow-colored button stallion unicorn and some sort of trans hero to walk me through gameplay. It's so annoying.

Kane, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Leave gaming alone, leave gamers alone, and stop talking about games and the people who play them using the left's gun control logic and words. End of, we have people to thank to help bring you free radio, and Keltech is one of them, Florida company. The Sub 2K reads a Sub 2000. The Gen 3, the 9mm carbine, is out, it's shipping, and you can get your hands on one.

And if you have the Gen 2, the Gen 3 is upgraded, meaning you don't have to detach your optics to fold it in half because the whole thing folds in half. There's a simple twist and fold motion of the rotating 4N patent pending in either direction, twists it, folds it in half, optics and all, and it just as quickly and easily deploys it. There's a few other things that they have fine-tuned on this, very reliable platform, just some simple upgrades, like the upgraded aluminum trigger, light and five-pound pool. You got more precise feedback, isolated trigger pull translating into improved accuracy, upgraded action, new chamber indicator, all kinds of good stuff. And of course, made in the USA by the awesome family-run business, Keltech.

To learn more about the sub-2K Gen 3, visit Keltechweapons.com. That's K-E-L-T-E-C weapons.com and tell them Dana sent you. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. Yeah. It's time for Florida Man.

Okay, so I have a couple of things here, including... This oh boy There's a There's several.

So, first up, this is a woman who flipped off a deputy and then yelled, I hate the police, while driving erratically. Which I'm sure made the police go, We shouldn't pursue her. She's just an ordinary citizen living her best life. Let's leave her alone, right? That's how that usually goes.

She flipped off this deputy and screamed, I hate police. Darla Vidal, 35, was arrested on one felony kind of resisting an officer and one misdemeanor kind of resisting an officer, according to Monroe County Sheriff's Office. It was just like 2:30 on Saturday of this weekend, and the police saw her. Driving like a mad person. They said she was like driving a car on the grass, like cutting across like the grass in the middle of like the lanes and that, and speeding down boulevards.

She did not stop. She kept swerving away from the road onto the grass. And then when they tried to pull her over, she stuck her arm out the window and gave the middle finger and then screamed, I hate the police. And she refused to stop. They finally she also told deputies to shoot her.

Yeah. Uh they ended up they did stop her and they did take her into custody, as you can imagine. I mean, they're just not gonna let you go.

Okay, well, I guess we're gonna leave you alone now. That's not how that works. A Florida man was arrested for making a bomb threat at a Page Field airport.

Well, that never goes over well. This was on Thursday in Fort Myers. He was arrested. It was at the Page Field Airport in South Fort Myers. And according to Lee County Port Authority, he was driving a pickup truck, White Dodge pickup.

He drove into the base of operations around seven, made a verbal bomb threat, and then fled the scene. He went up to the clerk and said he wanted to make a noise complaint because he was mad that he said the aircraft was flying over his home and spraying chemicals. And he said he knew it was this airport because he was tracking the plane. And then he asked the clerks if they knew about the FBI building that blew up. And then he goes, if the plane doesn't stop flying over my house, you're going to be next.

And then he got into his truck and drove away.

So they, I mean, they followed up and they said he faces charges of making false reports concerning planes, you know, of explosive device, etc.

So they took him into custody. Yeah, you can't. You can't do this.

So, you know, you can call and just register a complaint. You don't have to go there and tell them you're going to bomb the place.

Now, third hour on the way. Stick with us. When it comes to Alzheimer's endiometric endiometric. Wow. What was she trying to say?

She can't speak. Endometriosis. Ah, Ci se Padway. Yeah. Yeah.

Welcome. Welcome back to the program. Daniel Lash here with you. And top of this very third hour here, got a lot to hit. First off, there's.

There's we we had the uh censorship, the free speech, the the It's basically the section 230 thing that's getting heard before Skoda's. We're going to break that down. We have. Culture, we were talking about Gamergate 2.0 and how there's like two issues kind of simultaneously happening right now with the administration going after gaming and then the DEI garbage and gaming that's all coming to the surface again 10 years later. And then, of course.

We've got some of the latest of 2024. as well. Yeah. This is just, it's just, she just sounds like a nut when she speaks.

So she was trying to say endometriosis. And she couldn't say it. Why does this administration, everybody in it, have such a problem just like enunciating things, saying words? Why? Why do you look like that?

You look like you know. Oh, okay. I thought you were going to say something super smart, Alec Kane. It's just the. I think it's the.

The lowest vibrational people among us that are in charge.

Well, yeah. That's what it is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I I mean the whole Gosh dang, I tell you. Uh Is it's just so bad.

I don't, I don't think that she's any better sending her out there instead of Joe, if I'm being honest.

Now, earlier today I was asking you guys to to let me know how mean you wanted me to be today. And Steve said two, and you said 9.5. I just want to let you know that everybody who's in the YouTube discussion said 11. 11.

So and there's a lot more of them than there are of just you two.

So you said 9.5, Steve said 2. There were a lot of people that said 11 earlier. Yeah. Which would cancel Steve's two out probably. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And closer to ten. Yeah, with the amount of people that are in the discussion and the yeah, it's still probably at eleven. The averaging.

So I feel like, you know out of duty cane to the audience, that's what we That's what we're all about. We have to be at 11. talking about Of some of these, some of these issues. You know, it just makes sense to give the people what they want, right? To give them what they want.

So With the E V stuff. Let me pull this up. Biden's trying really hard not to lose Michigan. And now there's a war on cars. And that's this is so um Atlas shrugged, it's unreal.

So they're targeting Cars. Form Nothing. Just to target them. Like everybody's gonna they wanna put more on e you know, running on ethanol is actually more environmentally damaging than not. Interesting, right?

But it's all about the optic, the narrative that counts. It's the internal combustion cars. But it's not just that. It feels like they're going after, in some instances, E V's also. Because the regulations I feel like they don't understand much like firearms, they don't understand how automobiles work either.

And so they wanted to get rid of internal combustion engines because of the environment, right? It makes more sense if we get all of our rare earth elements to run our EVs from China, who has no environmental protections or regulations, and if we just keep the pollution over there, it won't come over here. And look, we're greener. Because we're just taking any kind of pollution and we're not reducing it. We're actually, it's going to be worse.

Yeah, it's going to be a lot worse. No worker protections either on top of it because it's China. And we're just going to ignore it. Because, see, it doesn't count if you ignore it. Right?

Doesn't count if you just say it's like It's like they try to say that crime's gone down because they just stopped counting certain things as crimes and they stopped prosecuting certain crimes.

So crime's gone down as a result. See, it's the same same thing.

So the As you can imagine, people in Michigan and the Rust Belt, they've been. taken too nicely to this and it's actually hurting Biden and Democrats in the polls. And he has been working to finalize a major crackdown. Despite the warnings from automakers, they said, Look, this is bad for consumers, it's bad for National security, it's bad for the economy. But the Biden administration is going.

Full steam ahead anyway, because they want to make everything in the transportation sector. Electric. And so the EPA is slated to issue a final rulemaking. and they say it's going to incentivize a greater adoption of E V s. But it's a man, I mean, it is a mandate.

This is an edict. It's not going to reduce pollution. It's not going to. be a a a gain for health. It is going to make Automobiles more expensive.

The United States already is, in fact, already leading in terms of clean air. I mean, we started doing all of this even before the government began hinting that it wanted to make it a mandate. But he's in a catch-22 because he wants to appease Democrats and Biden need to appease the Greenies, but at the same time they can't make the Rust Belt mad.

So, what do you do? Because the greenies want EV, all the things, and they want all of these fuel regulations and restrictions, and these are things that would ultimately further. uh wound the Rust Belt.

So he's this is what happens when you have policies that are identity politic and based on theory and I mean actually debunk theory and speculation as opposed to actual science. And now he's in a he's in a bit of a pickle. Because the greenies could revolt. And then you could have Rust Belt revolt and he needs the Rust Belt.

So what are you going to do? I kind of get the sense that they want to push it all over the EPA and act like it's just a EPA is just a singularly separate entity, and they have nothing to do with the Biden administration. He tried, guys. He tried. Just like with immigration, he can't do anything, you know.

I mean, granted, he did all the Executive orders undoing the previous executive orders, which is why you should not govern or administrate by executive order. But So they, the EPA back in January, submitted these final regulations. They needed the White House to review them. The OMB, which is the Office of Management and budget. They were meeting with industry officials, etc.

The New York Times reported on it. They said, uh, let me pull this up. The Biden's doubling down on this. He's Doubling down on this gas car, crack down. It's at the New York Times.

They were looking at tailpipe emission standards. Remember, they were trying to delay some of this and push it off until after the election so that. They could stave off. a potential loss of Rust Belt voters. Ahead of this.

That's what they were they were looking at doing because they it's very He needs every vote he can get right now. It doesn't look good. I mean, this is not helping him. I'm looking at some of the 2024 stuff. If you look at some of the polling, For uh Democrats uh is not looking too well.

Uh they're struggling. But Please do not think it's going to stay like that. Simply because Some of the polls are reflecting this now. They haven't even started. They haven't even begun.

actually spending their several hundred million dollar war chest. And that's that could change. That's what you have to be ready for and anticipate. And in the meantime, the Republicans aren't helping anybody. CNN reports, and I've read this a couple of places, so it's not just CNN, in different variations.

House Speaker Mike Johnson is mad because Republicans are campaigning against each other in bitter primary battles. And if I'm being honest, the bitter primary battles come down to who endorsed Trump over DeSantis and who didn't. I don't know why this runs so deep. I just remember back in 2012, I loathed Mitt Romney. I literally still have.

A pair of flip-flops that made fun of Mitt Romney for flipping and flopping on every issue. I still own those, Kane. I still have them, I found them. I own them. I might wear them still.

And afterwards, though, even though it was Mitt Romney, what were we going to do? Vote for Barack Obama or allow your vote to be counted against you by not being president? I mean, I it I just noticed that those partisan lines on the right did not run deep like that, even though I feel like there was. Such vicious opposition to Romney from grassroot conservatives. And so fast forward to now.

This isn't even on policy. Like the reason that so many people I think had opposed Romney, like myself, is he invented Obamacare in Massachusetts and he was disingenuous when discussing the issue. And his campaign, he was, you know, tried to be nice and smiley and Mr. Christian on TV. But behind the scenes, like his people were trying to get me fired from CNN.

They wanted me to be on with a baby, a Romney surrogate every single time that I was going to go on television and do analysis. I mean, that was that bad. I never had a presidential candidate do that to me before, ever in my life, ever. He was the one who did. Never had anybody else do it.

So I told you I hold grudges.

So, with this, it's not even policy, it's just personality. And I don't know why people need to keep trying to beat a dead horse. The primary is over. Everyone's acknowledged it. Doing anything other than going forward and trying to get voters makes me think that the people who are refusing to do that are psyop plants who are here to further divide the right.

I am of that opinion wholeheartedly now. If I see people out there pushing division and I don't know you in person, I will immediately assume. that you are a psyop plant who is here to continue to divide the right. That's honestly what it is.

So be careful of that stuff. But Johnson's telling people to knock it off. He told. the Republicans at the House retreat in West Virginia last week to cool it. He said, quote, I am vehemently opposed to member-on-member action of primaries because it's not.

productive. and I'm telling everyone to knock it off. Because that's what's happening. A lot of them.

Now, the one against, like, for instance, Tony Gonzalez of Texas, he's a gun control guy, so that did it for me. But some of these other primaries, it came down to literally being. A case of who did you endorse in the presidential primary. I'm not even kidding you. In Texas, it was.

Most of the races, save for two, were like that. And both of those races Are going into a runoff. The Gonzalez race isn't like that. He's a gun control guy. Like I said, he backed a bunch of gun control, a gun control package in the wake of Uvalde.

And that's a a deal breaker for me, that issue.

So I mean, that's not really petty part. Partisan primary fighting based on who endorsed whom in the presidential primary. That's a policy issue. And I think that when you have Republicans that That betrays people on policy like that, yeah, then you get the brass knuckles out, which are illegal in Texas now, rhetorically speaking. They're.

That's true. I I mean, that's that's what these primaries were made for. But these other ones, if it's just an issue of personality from the presidential primary, that's stupid. Why are you giving ammo? Why are you.

Just making up ammo based on pettiness. for the left.

Now, one thing that Republicans are going to have to get a handle on, no matter how dumb we think this issue is being brought up and used as leverage by Democrats, is the abortion issue. They're going to push this because it's an issue that Republicans are mushmouth about because they don't know how to answer it. They're trying to give a focused group answer that they think is going to appeal to every voter that they need, the hardcore base. the people who are states' rights, the people who are, you know, a little bit more libertarian, and the moderate Democrats who are convinced by other Democrats that exceptions don't exist for the life of the mother. Republicans are going to have to get better at at solidifying and having the same narrative on this.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss, it's time for Dana's Quick Five.

So the state of California is producing, is proposing to delay rules aimed at reducing water on lawns. Concerning environmentalists because they have zero idea on how to conserve water. I mean, you're literally right by the ocean. Desalinization plants. They had all that rain and now they're like, yeah, we're good.

Desalinate your water. Yeah, they had all that rain.

So they are j yeah, they're like, okay, we're good now. They're just gonna blow through it and then they're gonna be back on. like the restrictions. They have no idea how to deal with it. Environmentalists are worried.

Environmentalists are worried though over the wrong things. Like they have no idea how to maintain proper forestry habits, no idea how to clear brush. They think that any of that is like cruel. But then when there's a giant fire, a wildfire, they, oh, how did we get that? They have no clue.

A Las Vegas company has introduced AI real estate to help families find homes. Why am I getting to South Park? Feeling from this. They're redefining the way companies operate, and a local agency is using AI. It's a conversational luxury real estate agent.

You're fake. with a so weird headline or a hairline, a fake weird ha hairline. It's uh a thing called Luxora created by this luxury realty group. And the broker said they partnered with tech platforms to make it possible. Everything is going to be AI, isn't it?

Everything. Where's Smod? Is that going to be more helpful though for people? I don't think so. Let's see.

Oh, I hate you, Kane. I had to make you read this. A man was charged with being nasty at a Safeway market. Stephen Masalta. was busted last month.

On charges that he had Solo romantical times. outside of numerous coffee shops, and businesses in the Fort Collins area. And oh my gosh, why is he so weird? And he was in a safe way. He was inside the safeway, and he.

Things that were not. commercially sealed he Put stuff on. That's all I'm doing. I'm not going anymore. You get the idea.

The worst thing that you can think of him doing, he did it. He did it. Think of American pie, but with all the produce and anything that was not sealed. In the aisles. I'm not even joking you.

Not even joking you. All right, so coming up, law and order, free speech as well. Stick with us. 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.

Justice Jackson?

So my biggest concern is that your view has the First Amendment hamstringing the government in significant ways in the most important time periods. I mean, what would you have the government do? I've heard you say a couple times that the government can post its own speech, but in my hypothetical, you know, kids, this is not safe, don't do it, is not going to get it done. And so I guess Some might say that the government actually has a duty to take steps. to protect the citizens of this country, and you seem to be suggesting that that duty cannot manifest itself in the government encouraging or even pressuring platforms to take down harmful information.

So can you help me? Because I'm really I'm really worried about that. because you've got the First Amendment operating. In an environment of threatening circumstances from the government's perspective, and you're saying that the government can't interact. With the source of those problems?

And, Your Honor, I understand that instinct, and I guess what I tell you is the Wow.

So, what you were listening to just then was Kentanji Brown Jackson. She's a was speaking with one of the attorneys that's They're they're looking at um It's what is it? The Murthy v. Missouri. It is a Supreme Court case.

where it's examining the collusion Between the US government and social media platforms to censor online speech. And I can imagine that this is going to be something that plays into the 230 stuff later on. And that's what you are hearing. uh some of that discussion and that was Kentanji Brown Jackson of course She can't even define what a woman is, so I can't imagine that she could define what the First Amendment is either. Welcome back to the program, bottom of this third hour.

Her statement, quote My biggest concern is that your view has the First Amendment. hamstringing the government in significant ways, end quote.

Well, that's exactly right. the government is supposed to be restricted. And to operate in a limited capacity. with respect to the rights of the individual American. That's the whole That's the whole point of it and it was written to reflect that.

And The Our natural rights, the Bill of Rights, our First Amendment, our free practice of religion, our free speech, etc. These, it's not an uh it's not a statement or a declaration of what rights. We are granting ourselves within this new framework of government, but rather It was a statement. boundary to the new framework of government. As to this is what we already have as natural rights, and you respect this.

It is a statement of limitation to the government. your rights only exceed so far. That's what all of this was. And so for her. To write this is Or to say this, sorry, I'm looking at the transcript of the remarks as well.

It's pretty wild. you Sh and that's her biggest concern? Her biggest concern is that. And there was collusion. Between The Government and social media platforms.

We saw that. That came out. uh FOIA requests, we we already know all of that exists. Wow. The king goes, What did you say when we were coming back on air?

Well, that's why she's on SCOTUS or something.

Now I know why she was put there. Yeah. It's a it's a free speech. The advent of tech. With social media platforms and new ways to have conversations, hasn't changed the rights of people.

All of those rights are applicable. It's not, it doesn't, time does not render a right anachronistic. A right, a natural right. is able to continue existing as a natural right no matter the medium that time provides. And what they're trying to argue is that a right is measured by apparently what is afforded at the time.

That's so weird to me.

So she's actually trying to say she was trying to argue in favor. Of censorship. That's what her question intimates. She's. Look, her concern is that The government would be somehow restricted in a significant way with respect to someone's first amendment.

That's. That's uh this is the gun control argument, but for speech. Oh no, we have all of these modern advancements with uh firearm Well, the skeleton and the idea of those existed before the Second Amendment was written. The Kentucky gun, the Puckwell gun, the Belton gun. Uh we all knew it was possible.

The the problem was cost was it it wasn't cost effective to e A either mass produce, B, they couldn't mass produce and C, who was going to purchase it because they'd be so expensive. That's why Washington's Army didn't have Belton guns because they were too it was prohibitively expensive.

So the idea was already there. I mean, for Crying Out Loud, Jefferson owned a rifle that was later adopted by the Austrian military that was pretty advanced for the time.

So he had that as part of his collection.

So the idea that natural rights are somehow, like I said, rendered out of date, anachronistic, limited by the time in which they were affirmed is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen argued. Speech is still speech. A medium. is irrelevant. Technological advancements are irrelevant.

A right is a right. We're going to keep seeing this play out over and over again. We were talking a little bit about. Gamergate 2. And even if you don't.

Play games. It's important. It should be important to you. All of this stuff should, because your grandkids do. Your kids do.

Somebody you know does. Maybe grown women like yours truly does. But Lorraine's going to have a piece that's coming out about this on chapter and verse because you had two things. You have the speaking of free speech and collusion. The Biden administration is now looking at gamers and people who get on Discord to have conversations and have meetups and all of this stuff under the guise of, oh, well, there could be some dangerous activity here.

Could be a national security issue. Just because somebody is critical of the current administration does not immediately raise the flag of being a national security issue, but that's how they define it. And so The second half of this is this DEI aspect of it.

So Gamergate 2, the first one, as I said, had to do with Some chick who made a sucky game. Her game was about depression, and it was just, I can't believe anybody would want to play it. Here, play a game about depression. Why? And she was basically she was accused of trading sex for positive reviews.

From gaming journalists. And it developed into this whole thing, and they tried to make attacked gamers and tried to make them look like knuckle-dragging, all knuckle-dragging dudes. And it was just dumb.

So Gamergate 2.0 is very similar. There's this small company, I think they have like 16 people. It's called Sweet Baby Inc. And it's a consulting company that works in DEI. It's DEI crap.

That's what it is. It's DEI stuff. And they work with other developers to make sure that their scripts and concepts are DEI good. Not even kidding, to make sure it's all woke. They wokeify it.

That's what they do. They're the sanitation department, so to speak. And they apparently, there was a list that was put out.

Somebody I guess he was a gaming journalist and in gaming, put out a list saying these are the developers that this company works with, which I pretty much could figure it out. I mean, you can kind of tell who who's woke-fied and who isn't. And Sweet Baby Inc. got mad, and then they started recycling the arguments used in the first Gamergate 10 years ago and attacking gamers again and saying that they're, oh, they're targeting us, we're being subject to harassment. And again, being criticized is not the same thing as being harassed.

And I hate when people use the hyperbolic language of, I was attacked when someone merely disagreed with you. And people are shocked that gamers don't want to have wokery in their games.

So that's what this whole thing is. And it is very difficult to, and I'm telling you this just because it's going to probably pop up more and more, especially. In concert with this push by the administration to target. gamers or people who get on Discord for Shady behavior, like they had said with this Office of Management and Budget report. I'm just so tired of this, the DEI stuff, and everything.

And it shouldn't be, as we were saying, it shouldn't be in games. They have no to to attack the people who are criticizing. The woke noise that you're adding to these games is not harassment. Because if you're using that as like, I guess, the new definition of harassment, then could it not also be argued that players who are subjected to endless messaging and narratives about your woke BS, are they not being harassed then by your ideology? I use Gearbox's Borderlands as an example for a couple of reasons because it's so egregious and they.

Are absolutely, they embrace it whole hog, and also because you have a major movie coming out with Kate Blanchett. In the title role, well, not title role, but in the starring role as one of the main characters. And you've got Kevin Hart and Jack Black and all these people who are in this film. And there's no way that it's going to be as woke as what the game is because the game is so woke. They have, there's like a trans character in one of the Tiny Tina adventures that was like a separate game, like some DLC that you could get.

It was like a whole separate thing. And they had a gay unicorn that they called Butt Stallion, right? And they had like all kinds of wokery as it relates to. Uh Everything. Name it and they had it in here.

It's asinine, and it became so heavy-handed. That it was annoying to play. And that's the kind of stuff that Sweet Baby does. They want to make games an so annoying to play that you just don't play them anymore. But the other thing that I don't get is they were trying to argue that games somehow are.

It's all white dudes. Cain? Most of the games Yeah. I mean, there's a lot of indie developers that are that are coming up, but by and large, the big stuff comes from what country? China.

No. Japan? Japan. Yeah. You know, which is run by white men, apparently.

Not what I heard last time I told you. Oh, Japan must be full of white men. Who knew? I can't. I can't take these people seriously.

This is so dumb. It's so dumb. They're going to try to ruin games. You can't let them. Leave gamers alone.

All right. We have a couple of other things I want to make sure that we're I want to make sure we're hitting everything. Toronto police made all the residents mad. They told everyone to leave their car keys in the front door to avoid thieves breaking in. Thefts have soared one hundred fifty percent.

in Toronto. Their constable told residents leave their car keys at the front door.

so you don't have break-ins. Instead of actually enforcing the law or having stricter punishment to make people reconsider. breaking into your car. They just want you to leave your car keys at the front door so they can just e more easily take your vehicles. Should we also park them facing the street?

Yeah, make sure you can park it so where the thief can get out get out of it really. Go ahead and leave your front door open too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And leave your front door of your house open too. They may need to come in and use the bathroom or get a drink or something like that, right?

And go ahead and put your valuables out like on the like on the table closest to your front door. Just lay them out nice and neat. You know, it's good to be considerate to the criminal, right? They had to decide that this was a good public service announcement. Like in some meeting, in a boardroom somewhere.

They had to say, Well, what can we do? to help curb crime. Let's tell the public to make it easier. for criminals to commit crime. People have had to hide their cars in secret locations and get high around the clock security.

In Can in Toronto. In Toronto. Their car thefts have soared by over 150%. And that's just within six years.

So, yeah, their actual lead law enforcement was saying, yes, just go ahead and keep the keys by the front door so people can just. take them and you know. Uh That's you know. Make it easier for the criminal. Leave a bag of money up there by the car.

Yeah, you might as well. Yeah. You know? I mean, w how else do we want to make it? Where do we stop?

Like car thefts? We just have like women just, you know, lay on their backs, everything ready to rock so that the thieves can have their way too? Like, how much do you want to sit here and make it easier for the criminal? For real. Go ahead and leave your babies out there on the front porch so they can take them if they need to.

You know, make it easy for the criminal. This is so stupid. How about you enforce the law and have maximum penalty? Make people re be so afraid of the penalty that they won't do it. Because if common sense and morality isn't going to be supported in this country, well then you're going to have to have a pretty brutal penalty in order to get people to walk right.

Follow Dana on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts, because knowledge is your ultimate superpower. Ireland now is one of the top 10 investors in the United States economy. And our country stands proudly for liberty and against tyranny. We stand together and oppose Russia's brutal war of aggression in Ukraine. You can clap for that, please.

You can clap for that, please. Gotta tell people but then you can clap for it. Good grief. That's Joe Biden. Kind of slurring his way through his Address over the weekend.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Hash with you. The conclusion of this third hour. And uh I looking at the Michigan stuff that we were just talking about the Revisions or the regulation that the EPA wants to push out, and how they had delayed it on like tailpipe emissions and all this stuff, and how the Biden administration is trying to reach out. He's got to keep the Rust Belt happy and then also the greenies happy.

This is what Trump was talking about when he was talking about a bloodbath economically.

So, this is exactly what he was talking about. He was referencing these detrimental policies. And the media, it's a lot easier for them to talk about and make fake accusations about civil wars and threats of violence instead of, oh my gosh, what are Democrats going to do? Because you cannot keep the green people, the greenies, and then the people in the rest belt whose livelihoods depend on not stifling regulations from the government. You can't keep both of them happy simultaneously.

So, what are they going to do? We'll explore more of that throughout the week. Today's stupidity came. All right, it is Joe Scarborough Cut 15. Listen to what he says here.

Still hanging on to this narrative, Juan. Go ahead. He's talking about a bloodbath for America. It's laid out in the terms of it. And these idiots on Twitter, these idiots on cable news, these idiots on Sunday shows going, well, presidents, you know, he was talking only about the auto industry, and this is one more.

It's just bullshit. Let me say that at 6:15 a.m. It's just bullshit. Oh, wow. It's 6:15 a.m.

Sure, thanks, Scarborough. He's had a lot of coffee, apparently, and none of it was good. All right, folks, that does it for us today. Find us on YouTube, Facebook, like and subscribe. Also, substack chapter and verse, the newsletter.
