Friday July 19 - Full Show

As you already know, the assassin's bullet. came within a quarter of an inch of taking my life.

So many people have asked me what happened. Tell us what happened, please. And therefore I will tell you exactly what happened. And you'll never hear it from me a second time because it's actually Too painful to tell. It was a warm Beautiful day.

in the early evening. In Butler Township, in the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Music was loudly playing. And the campaign was doing really well. I went to the stage and the crowd was cheering wildly.

Everybody was happy. I began speaking. very strongly, powerfully, and happily Because I was discussing The great job my administration did on immigration at the southern border. We were very proud of it. Behind me.

And to the right. was a large screen that was displaying a chart. of border crossings under my leadership. The numbers were Absolutely amazing. in order to see the chart.

I started to like this. Turn to my right. And was ready to begin. A little bit further turn, which I'm very lucky I didn't do. when I heard a loud whizzing sound and felt something hit me.

Really, really hard. On my right ear. I said to myself, Wow, what was that? It can only be a bullet. and moved my right hand to my ear, brought it down.

My hand was covered with blood. Just absolutely Blood all over the place. I immediately knew it was very serious, that we were under attack. And in one movement proceeded to drop to the ground. Bullets were continuing to fly.

As brave secrets. Service agents rushed to the stage, and they really did. They rushed to the stage. I like what it says about the audience who are coming out trumpet learning. These are great people.

At great risk, I will tell you, and pounced. On top of me.

so that I would be protected. There was blood pouring everywhere, and yet, in a certain way, I felt very safe because. I had God on my side. I felt that. I love what he said about the audience.

He said everybody hunkered down and stayed put. He said they hunkered down. Remember, we talked about this too on air, and we had said. It It was interesting in that the entire, like all the people in the bleachers and everything else, they just. They because these are, y'all, these are people from Pennsylvania.

These are you, okay? I mean, these are people who Group, I mean, they know gunfire, they know gunfire, and they're. I feel like they're just, you know, they're they're. Under they get it and they knew kind of how what to do and how to react and all that stuff. Welcome to the program.

The RNC, the convention is finally concluded, and we're doing a wrap-up also looking at some of the best moments of the final day. Uh, Daniel Lash here with you, top of this first hour on Friday. You can listen coast to coast to the radio program. You can also find us uh on Rumble and X. There's always a discussion at Rumble, X everywhere, Channel 347, DirecTV, all that good stuff.

And we're gonna get into the latest with Democrats and Biden and all of this other. It's crazy, there's so much happening. But the RNC, I will say. I'm going to be real honest. First off, I thought He set the tone that he needed to set.

Number one, number two, it ran way too long. His speech was way too long. We can all agree. But he came out and he was totally on script. He maintained, here's what I think is important.

Yes, it was way too long. Yes, he came out and he was totally on script for the first half hour. And then he just went off. There was a meme going around of like the guy who, one of the guys who played Doctor Who standing in the rain, and the gif and the rain just coming down on him. And it said, all Trump speechwriters right now.

But. He the thing that I think is important is he maintained the tone. Even when he went off script, he maintained the tone. And that's ultimately the most important thing he needed to do. Uh This is also the first RNC and I've attended several conventions.

This is the first convention I have ever seen where the RNC finally understood stagecraft. I can't believe I'm saying this because I never thought the day would come. I don't care where you stand on Trump or anything else. This is the first convention where the RNC finally understood stagecraft. And Kane, you know how important that is.

It tells a story you put on a show, it's all part of it. I mean they finally got it. The second thing is I had two favorite moments. Three actually of the entire convention. The first was, and we're going to get into Hulk Hogan because that was the first when he rips his shirt up.

The second is the reaction of all the people watching Kid Rock. I was sent. Oh my gosh, you guys. Because he comes out. Did he have a band?

Because they weren't on stage. No. Was it all just backing trucks? Because that was weird. They're a part of his vocals that were backed.

So if you notice, when he pulled his microphone away from his face, there was still Kid Rock singing. Yeah, well, he had his background vocals for sure, for sure. But he. It I mean, it was.

Well, I mean, here, watch some of it. Audio 7x3. I got to show you some of it. I got to show you some of it. Go ahead.

Go ahead. Go ahead. Go ahead. What up, America? If you're ready for President Trump to take this.

I do approve it. I need everybody to stand up. You know, black on black. I need everybody to put a fist up here. But there's no band that hits hands.

But this dude carried that performance. You didn't need a band. It's like how Rush is the three-piece, but they sound like a whole orchestra. You know, he didn't need, he just carried the whole thing. He carried the whole thing and he's just going to, and I love, did the camera actually bob up and down with him?

Is that what they did? But he's. He was just going. I mean, he just carried it. And, you know, kudos to him because that's not hard.

And it's not. Or it's hard, and it's hard. When you're playing a room and you don't quite know about the energy you're getting, my favorite was Melania Trump's face. God love that woman. Did you see her face?

I swear to you, the fact that that did not launch a thousand memes right now, I'm really disappointed in the meme community. I don't know what you're doing right now, but she was frozen for a minute, more than Matt Gates' face. I mean, like naturally, she. She just had this expression on her face and was kind of looking around the room. Like, wait, what?

I loved it. It was so genuine. And it, I mean, and there were, I saw an old man, like by old man. I mean, this dude was in his 90s and he was like fist pumping. I don't care.

You know what? It was sad but true. Kid Rock sampled it. Kid Rock's a good performer. Stop being a snob.

I can't stand it. I can't stand all these people out there who are like, I'm a snob. I'm going to go around and lay on all my vinyl like Scrooge McDuck with his gold boolean. Shut up. You're the reason why music sucks.

So it was fun. It's supposed to be fun. You know why? Because there are delegates in the floor. That's a big part of the thing I want to point out about his speech.

Because people are like, well, it started me and draw into like a rally speech. Hi, where are you? Yeah. You're at the convention. Who's on the floor of the convention?

The delegates What do the delegates do? Party business. You're shocked? I mean, that's kind of partly what the delegates kind of want.

Soaps. I just, I don't know. I just think it was finally they understood stagecraft. My third other favorite moment was when they. Uh put uh Uh Corey compared Torres uh Firefighter uniform.

I was trying to say first responded. Firefighter uniform on the stage, they wheeled it out. And It was audio sound by 17. I was not expecting that. The firefighter uniform to come out.

Like I saw it being wheeled out. And I It was one of those moments where your brain's trying to catch up with what your eyes are seeing. And I'm like, wait, is that? And it took me a second. Watch this.

This is pretty powerful. But Corey, unfortunately, we have to use the past tense. He was incredible. He was a highly respected former fire chief, respected by everybody. On stage the whole time.

He was accompanied by his. Wife Helen. Credible woman I spoke to today, devastated. and two precious daughters. He lost his life, selflessly acting as a human shield to protect them from flying bullets.

He went right over the top of them and was hit. What a fine man he was. I remarked that you can see the uniform on stage with him. I remarked to my kids, I'm like, man, those girls, when they start, his daughters, when they start dating, or if they already are dating, they're going to. Whoever they date, whoever they end up marrying is going to have a lot to live up to because their example of a man and a role model is a guy who gave his life, thrown under the ground and shielding them with his body to save their lives.

amazing. And Trump walks right over and he kisses the helmet. of the uniform. And it just, it was, it was a, it's a powerful thing. And I don't, some of the left were upset about it because they're stupid.

I mean, I don't have anything nice to say about their reactions. I thought it was a really powerful moment. And I'm going to tell you what, that guy lost his life at a Trump rally. He went to a Trump rally. He was a Trump supporter.

And this is what the family wanted. And how dare you? Who the hell are you to question what this family wanted? This man was mowed down because of this political zealotry. Who are you to continue that zealotry by questioning the final wishes for this uniform of the family?

Shame on you.

So it was a powerful moment. It was a, and some of the people were saying, oh, that's not his real uniform. The name's spelled wrong. That's literally the uniform from his fire department. USA Today actually had to fact check it.

Can you believe it? They actually had a fact check some of the leftists that were out there who were complaining like, oh, well, that's not his real uniform. Or that's, you know, that's the way his name was spelled at the firehouse. USA Today had an entire story on it that ran on the 17th. And it's still online.

So it's um It was a powerful moment. It was a very powerful moment. And he was also thinking, like, everybody's, there was a follower, a listener of this program that was saying, and I also think he said, I also think the off script, thank everyone I can think of, is an expression of his brush with death. And I think so, too. He didn't go out, and it wasn't, I think the left was.

still even Anticipating him to go out and be all fire and brimstone. He wasn't. And I don't care if the speech went long. I think he was enjoying being with people. And it was funny when he was talking about that graph.

when they threw the uh immigration graph up. Because that was the graph, if you're not familiar with this part of it. The picture about the chart on immigration that they put up on the Jumbotron at that rally. That's why he turned his head to look at it because he was referring to the numbers that were on the screen. And had they not thrown that graph up, had he not looked, turned, and looked at the chart, he would have been shot in the head and he'd have been killed.

I mean, that's indisputable. And he went that they've they put that chart up again. And then he started ad-libbing about the chart. I I think One of the things that I think people need to realize. And clearly I've never held elected office and I've never been president of the United States or anything like that, but there have been instances where you are forced to have, and I've been in this position, you're forced to have and deal with processing actual feelings, you know, your real feelings while you're doing, while you're in public and you're also doing a job, all at the same time.

And it can be a very difficult thing to do. I mean, it's compartmentalization of the highest order. And Having a brush with death like he did. And he's still processing all of this, and he's on stage, and that chart comes up. And that was a very genuine, I think, off-the-path moment where he was ad limit about it.

And he just had a very different tone. And I think it was very genuine there. And I think he also enjoyed being with people. And I think that was part of the processing. You know, for him, I think it was part of that.

We have a lot that we have to cover because. I want to let you know too, as it relates to Democrats and Biden. You're going to see competing headlines for the rest of the weekend, maybe even going into next week, about Biden because they are trying to force him out. And the word is, and I've been hearing this from very well-placed sources, they wanted to force him out by Sunday.

Well, they wanted to force him out and then have it announced Sunday.

Now it looks like the Biden camp is pushing back on that.

So we're going to deep dive into that here coming up. We're also going to get into more of this speech and kind of start to pivot towards some of the policy on it as well. The latest with the Secret Service. You're going to get mad, but they're now upset over criticism. Hi, I'm George, an economics major at Hillsdale College.

Here's Hillsdale President Dr. Larry Arn with the Constitution Minute. The Declaration of Independence is more than a bold letter to a British king written by upstart colonists, although it very much is that. The Declaration explains the promise of America. That all men and women are born equal in their possession of natural rights, and that the proper exercise of these rights can lead to a full and deeply satisfying life.

Just as the Declaration explains America's promise, The Constitution upholds that promise. Its purpose is to protect the rights of all of us, our natural rights. This establishes the possibility. Not the guarantee. that we can have a good life.

This is true freedom. To learn more and get a free pocket constitution, visit ConstitutionMinute.com.

Next time anyone says Botanomics is working, here's what you tell them. 30% of all tax revenue in June went to paying off interest on our national debt. We spent more on interest than Social Security, health and human services, and our own national security.

It's time for Dana's Quick Five. The Microsoft Cloud strike outage has taken down tons of government agencies used by lots of people, travel chaos. I was telling Kane, a friend of our family who has cancer, who's dealing with colon cancer, their chemo. They are having to wait for their chemo. They had a chemo treatment today because of this outage.

It's affecting absolutely everything. Med, the dispensing of medication, all of it. And how much do you want to bet that the person in charge of this is going to get fired before the Secret Service lady? How much you want to bet? The same.

Yeah. So they are still dealing with it. It's taken down. I mean, all flights, over 1,300 flights were canceled and everything, worldwide halt to business and government operations.

Now, they say it wasn't a cyber attack, that it had to do with a very specific update that crashed. And they got into detail about it.

So they ought to get an actual Nazi if they're going to do this. Adidas is revising their campaign with Hamas fan, Nepo baby, Bella Hadid, who would not have gotten her modeling. Jobs were it not for plastic surgery and her billionaire developer father. Uh, she's they've apologized for uh unintentionally causing pain because they literally decided to redo the 1972 tennis shoe from the summer games, in which 11 Israeli athletes were killed by a Palestinian militant group or a fake, that's a fake ethnicity, uh, terror group, and uh, they used her for it. She has like slammed Israel, she's fed into the Pallywood propaganda, all of it.

Uh, and You're not to take a daily antibiotic.

Well, you shouldn't. Why do people do preventative antibiotics? It's a study. Why do you do that? Stay with us.

Do you guys remember back in 2020 when store shelves were empty and nobody could find ammunition? That was such a bummer. Actually, it sucked out loud. Nobody liked that. It was hard to find stuff.

I want to point out one thing.

I'm speaking to fellow Christians. I was raised Catholic. I'm a Christian girl. When something like this happens to you, like this assassination attempt, and you say something like, God was watching me, that is a very unchristian thing to say because it's very narcissistic. What about Corey, what's his name?

Corey wasn't that far. Combre Corey, the fireman, who also got killed. I don't know. What are they Christian? What about all those guys who got killed on Sandy?

All of those people. That's uh Joyless Gay Bar as uh Kane has said From uh the VO. Yeah. And she's she's like, well, you know, that sounds very nice.

So, are you doubting the omnipotence of God, Joy? You big old Christian, you? I mean, there's many things I think about Joy Behar, but her being a person of faith is not one of them. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you.

The Lord put a hand over my mouth. I'm telling you what, because times like these, I was made for times like these. I really got to turn on the nice girl filter because, oh man. What an ignorant thing to say. Can you just go on T V?

I get it that you gotta sit here and and rustle the jimmies of your viewers, of your base, which are a bunch of apparently disgruntled bitches that just watch this show for who knows whatever reason. Why does anybody watch the view? Is it to try to fill the hole in your life that a frenemy that you could barely tolerate because they were dating someone in your friend group and you would go out for dinner or drinks and you would just let them run their mouths? Is it to fill that hole in your life? Because I have no idea why anybody would watch this program.

Do you? Does anybody, would you ever want to be friends with the type of woman that is like represented by that program? No. No. I watch it like I watch, you know, racing.

I don't watch it for the same reason that I avoid like rusty nails. You know. Or l or puddles that look suspiciously disease-filled. That's the same reason why I don't watch I avoid watching that program. I watch it just for the entertainment value of all the stupid things they say.

It's entertaining sometimes. I mean, I just can't believe people just say this type of stuff. Like, oh, well, he's now real Christian. What is the matter with you? She's the new arbiter of all things moral.

Yeah, I'm telling you what. I just these they don't know how to react to this, so they're just this is what This is the type of stuff that they're They they have no idea how to react to it. It's weird because you have half of the left that's going, well, wait a minute now. Actually, I would divide them in three groups. You have one half of the left that's like, okay, there's something happening here, and this is some pretty powerful stuff.

And then you have the middle group that are like, well, I don't know. I mean, it could be a conspiracy theory. And then you have this, you have this kind of stuff. Can we play this just like the first part of this Mark Zuckerberg audio? Because it's the reaction of people.

That I think we assume maybe are on the left. Maybe they're a little bit more centrally located than they are leftist leaning. But the left does not know how to deal with people like this leaving the thought plantation. Listen. I've done some stuff personally in the past.

I'm not planning on doing that this time. And that includes not endorsing either of the candidates.

Now look, I mean, there's obviously a lot of crazy stuff going on in the world. I mean, the historic events over the last, like, over the weekend. I mean On a personal note, it's Yeah, I mean seeing Donald Trump get get up after getting shot in the face. and pump his fist in the air with the American flag is One of the most badass things I've ever seen in my life.

So that's Mark Zuckerberg doing an interview in what looks to be a Hobbit house. I don't even know where he's, what that is, but. It's so weird. It's just everything is so weird when he does these interviews. Uh but You know, they have you have stuff like this.

You have stuff like that. You also have. I I I mean They don't know Audio Soundbite 25. Van Jones, who I'm not a fan of because he was a 9-11 truther. Uh Van Jones, who Made, I think, the people at whatever network he's on very upset when he said this.

This is Audio Soundbite 25.

So that's why people are so mad about it. We are like minutes away, minutes away from Hulk Hogan, Dana White, and Donald Trump. Right, so who do they want to run it? Let's talk about that. I want to say that.

So we can have an academic. You know what I mean? I want to say that.

This spirit that this guy has, you guys think this guy's he's drunk. He's not. This whole thing is like this. And it's like on the page. Hey, guys.

The last time I was in a convention that felt like this was Obama 2008. I gotta tell you, the convention, like in 2012, the 2012 convention. was The 2016 convention was even kind of meh, but I think also stagecraft. But 2012 is boring as all get out. Oh my gosh, it was one of the most boring conventions ever.

Uh And I and I was physically at the convention. It was very boring. I think there's, I mean, people are noticing this, and that's the left doesn't know how to deal with it.

So they do stuff like this: audio sound by 29, Simone Sanders. Is she, wait a minute, is she... Wasn't she like Jill Biden's person? Is she at MSNBC now? I don't know where these people go to.

They're like diseases. They just keep getting spread amongst the same recipients. Where are they? I don't even know what network this is. Oh, once you hear the audio soundbite, my cutting critique is warranted.

Audio Soundbite 29, listen to this. Sickened by the. Crop. That was Mr. Comperator.

Compatori. I was sickened by them using him as a prop, his firefighter jacket, and then they spelled the man's name wrong. And so he said, Oh, we're so grateful that the fire department sent this to us. These are local dang on dollars, okay? This is not, you know, Chicago fire.

It's LeBas ain't about to come out. I got their names on the back of the jackets. Like, who are you for? But then they put the name on and they spelled it wrong. I was just saying.

Hey, that was literally his jacket. Again, USA Today fact-checked this. That was literally his jacket that was at the fire department. That's how it was spelled there. And there are photos of it that USA Today has published.

And maybe if Simone Sanders was not looking in the mirror, At herself, trying to figure out her best angle for her best viral sound bite, and maybe put a little bit more effort into researching the topics that she was assigned. by the cable news network that is slumming it by having her on, then then maybe she would understand that and provide a little bit more of an honest analysis of the evening. But instead what you get is trash from trash people with trash opinions, trash awareness, trash education, trash, trash, trash. The family sent that up. Who are you to criticize what this family who lost their father.

because of rhetoric like the type you support. Who are you to sit here and question what the family is doing? I get it that you guys are losing your backsides and that you overplayed your hand. And that you're over your skis, or whatever other analogy you want to offer to show how stretched out you are beyond any reason. I get that you're freaking out right now, and you've got this desiccated old racist in the White House.

And I can actually say that with validity because when you eulogize a Klan member, when you drop slurs on air, when you bemoan the integration of everybody in schools, because you're a big champion of segregationism and you drop words like, I don't want my kids, what is it, growing up in. In a racial jungle, as Joe Biden has said on television before. Yeah, then, and that's all you have, and that's your best hope, and you're free. I can see why you're freaking out right now. When identity politics is falling apart before your very eyes, and you have nothing left but a bunch of hammers and sickles of different accords, yeah, I get it that you're freaking out right now.

But that's no excuse for you being a garbage human. It's just shameful. These people have no self-awareness. They have no sense of shame. I'm just, I'm just, I'm done with it.

And quite frankly, I enjoy watching them just writhe. I really do. I really do. because they deserve it. Because they are scum of the earth and they deserve it.

No, I don't feel at all bad about anything I'm saying. You know why? Because I've watched them go after people for over a decade. I watched them do this during the tea party, and I watched them do it even before then and after then. And everyone keeps saying that it's going to change.

You know, when we would get quote unquote compassionate conservatives and we would have Mike Pence go out and we would get the Mitt Romneys and in the same vein as the Bushes and they were telling us, no, no, no, you've got to be super nice. You know, you also, the same book that tells you to turn the other cheek is the same book that sits here and tells you that Jesus flipped tables. And people were tired. They're tired of that kind of no, you have to be compassionate. compassionate That's not what this is.

It's been surrender. People are tired of getting beaten down and beaten around. And I'm just tired of hearing this kind of stuff from these people. They say things like this. They sit here and tell you that Republicans are killing people over disagreements on health care or taxes or whatever.

And then, when their people are actually the ones shooting at Republican candidates, be it on ball fields or at rallies. And then they have the audacity to tell the people that have been shot at to turn down the rhetoric. Give me a break. I have to tell you. And all my time in commentary and in media.

I've never seen conservative entities put up Biden as Hitler. imagery on their publications. Or Use that as like an acceptable graphic editorializing the piece that is being published. I haven't seen that kind of stuff. Maybe it's because they have more brain cells than the people that they are standing opposite of ideologically.

But. This is it's It's there's no excuse for this. There's no excuse. And now you realize why. They're trying to switch it out.

I don't know what's gonna happen if they're gonna try to force an open convention or what. But behind the scenes, trust. That there is some serious fighting underway right now. Remember, it was supposed to be. That The word came out through Axios and some others that Biden was going to be like announcing that he was stepping down Sunday.

I had very well-placed sources that were like, yeah, this is the timeline that they're looking at, and they're kind of negotiating over it.

Something happened, something blew up this morning. Maybe it was last night or this morning, but the headlines this morning coming from the Biden camp, they're having a psyop battle right now. You have the anti-Biden people wanting him out. They're leaking, leaking, leaking, leaking. They will destroy him if need be.

Oh, fuckle up, because it's just now getting started with that. Just now getting started.

So maybe Democrats Should stop. complaining. About the firefighter uniform of a fallen father, and maybe they should start looking at some of what's happening within their party. You know, there's a reason why. All of their messaging is on attacking everyone else who disagrees with them ideologically.

What are they giving their voters? What are they giving their voters? What are they giving their base? For all the talk that Democrats have about the working man, what in the ever loving hell have these people ever done for the working man except ship your damn jobs overseas, raise your taxes, and basically bankrupt you with the invisible tax of inflation? What have they done?

Manufacturing's gone. Production is gone. Supply chains are withered. What have they done for the working man except to take from your union dues and have this this quasi NEPA relationship with union leaders? What have they done?

Hell now you even got Sean O'Brien, which was the thing that actually made me the weird weirded me out. Because some of his language clearly we don't agree on everything. But he was at the RNC. The Republicans are making a play for the working man.

So, what do Democrats do? They revert ever deeper into identity politics. What is their convention going to look like? Are they going to have a devil-worshipping drag queen come on out and sacrifice kids at the altar in the name of their god abortion? What are they going to do?

What do they have to offer? Where it concerns national security, what do they have to offer? They get people killed in Afghanistan because of disastrous withdrawals. What do they have to offer? The economy?

What do they have? Nothing. But Never underestimate anybody, including Republicans. Their ability to stick their feet in their mouth. This is not done yet, y'all.

Oh, I know. Not done yet. There's only 100 some odd days. It's not done yet. Do you ever ask yourself how you can work this hard and still be in debt?

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. Pushing back on with Alyssa is this notion that if he chooses to step down, which I do agree with you, that's his choice. That's the only legal choice.

There's a version that's not. It's his choice. I'm talking about this pressure campaign. It's his choice. Kamala, if she is leapfrogged and there's some open convention, no Democratic nominee can win without the black vote.

Black women will not support Kamala Harris being looked over. Why? Because she is ready, overlooked.

So there she is, ready to be the president. She's. No, she's not. She's not ready to be the president. Come on, nobody believes this.

They're just, you know, you don't get it just by nature of, well, I'm next. That's how, no, no, it's not. This isn't an entitlement position, but this is like the very, this is who the left is, isn't it?

So they're getting eaten alive by their entitlement positions and identity politics. And I am so here for it. Cry, seethe, writhe. I'm so here for it. Oh.

I love it. I love it so much.

Now I'm not going to engage in that much Schottenfreude. Because I do believe, you know, New Testament warns you on that. But. I do find it entertaining. Kane, that's okay to find it entertaining, right?

Yeah, it's very entertaining.

So we uh we're going to get into some of this. Because we've got to talk about some of the policy. That's been pushed out there as well. We're going to start pivoting and talking about policy. And then we're also going to get into this.

I keep seeing now they're going after JD Vance's.

Well, first off. Politico literally has this headline. They're going after his wife, but then also they're going after Lord of the Rings, which. We're gonna fight. The headline reads, If you really want to understand J.D.

Vance's politics, you'll need to crack open a little-known work. called the Lord of the Rings. Cain. Little known work. Little.

They're trying to defend it by. We were trying to be sarcastic. No, Dems the Rules. You made them. They're stupid.

You got to live by them. Little known work. These people are not well read. They're not educated. I mean, it reflects, it's reflective in their economic policies.

Clearly, they can't do math. Two plus two equals eleven and a half. It's how they do it, right? Why is there so much focus on Lord of the Rings? It's a great work.

And it's talking. Great, I mean it's a it's a it's a an iconic piece of American literature. And then now they're going after his wife.

So coming up There's this, I cannot stand the people who try to clout chase. By Intimating that they have a closer proximity than realistically than what they have realistically, and then trying to like name drop over that. We're going to talk a little bit about that because now they're crawling out of the woodwork. They want to go after his wife. And she didn't sign up for that.

And she's been I mean, she seems like very You know, she's a little sh seems a little shy. But, you know, like a just a Regular woman. And they're going after her. I, I, this, so, it's to be expected, but I'm tired of it.

So, we got a lot to get into, guys, coming up. Second hour on the way this Friday. Don't go anywhere. And if you want to chat, find the discussion over at Rumble as well in the meantime. Back in a moment.

This election should be about the issues facing our country and how to make America successful, safe, free, and great again. In an age when our politics too often divide us, now is the time to remember that we are all fellow citizens. We are One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Hmm. I mean, that was a very calm.

That was the tone that he needed to set. And going forward into this, don't you think so? I think so. That was, I mean, these are good remarks. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash, with you.

at the top of the second hour. And that was just some of what they're not going to. They're not going to talk about Trump's speech.

So they're going to complain that it went on for too long, which it did. But they're not going to talk about the tone, and they're not going to talk about all of this. They're not going to talk about it. And it was the tone that he needed to set. And whether it went on too long or not.

I was agreeing with my good friend David Limbaugh on this stuff because he was saying, you know, it was a good speech. It went on for a little long, which is true, but. I also think that He began on point, he went off script, but it's not earth-shattering, or it's not anything that's going to squander any kind of goodwill.

So I don't think it's like there's no hand-wringing that's necessary. I mean, people I think the delegates were pleased. And it's not beyond the realm of Realism to think that you're at a convention where your delegates and your hardcore supporters are, you're going to, you're going to have a little bit of a rally-esque. Tinge to your remarks. And I think that's You know, I like what my friend David said.

He said that. In looking at this. He had said that transformative incidents aren't personality snatchers. I think that's true. I mean, he still has the same personality, but you can't deny that.

I mean, he Is very aware of the weight of what happened. And I think his tone and his remarks were reflective of that. completely. And it was very, you know, it was a, it was, um, He had had good remarks. But I think maybe one of my favorite moments was Audio Soundbite 4, and people can get, you know, they can be like, what is this?

No, it's Hulk Hogan. Brother, audio 7x4. But what happened last week when they took a shot? And my hero. And they tried to kill the next President of the United States.

Oh no! Was enough. Really serve. Let Champa Mania run wild, brother. Let Chompa Mania rule again.

Let proper mania make. America great again! He delivered, man. Pulk Hogan delivered. How would you I and and God love him uh Franklin came on to give a prayer after that, and I was thinking, man, I would not want to follow Hulk Hogan.

I would have ever so slightly adjusted, perhaps. I would have had, you know, Franklin Graham. Maybe kinda kick it off. Man, I would have had Eric Trump, and then I would have done Maybe Dana White and then Hulk Hogan and then Trump come out. But I also understand that they were trying to.

Set a specific tone. And I get it, you know what I mean?

So they had Dana White, they had Hulk Hogan, then Dana White, and then I get it, I get it, I get it. But come on, that was so good. How do you go on after Hulk Hogan?

So good. It brought back some great memories as a kid. Didn't you blow him an air kiss? I swear to you, I think Trump blew him an air kiss. Yeah, I think it was something like that.

He literally air kissed him. Pretty sure something like that. But my favorite part too was when he was in that character, you know, that first part of his speech. And then he breaks down. He's like, Look, guys, I just wanted to come with this energy.

You know what I mean? This is me. Yeah, audio soundbite. Audio soundbite, too. Listen to this.

This is good. Crowd behind you. You're going to speak to them. I can't wait. This is going to be like body slamming the giant at WrestleMania.

What brought you out here? Why are you here?

Well, you know, Brett, I got tired of remaining silent. You know, I sat back and watched the borders collapse. I watched The Economy Collapse, I watched The Price of Gaspar. I wanted to play this ad. This ad dropped a little bit ago, a little while ago, but they just did an ad buy with it last night, is when they started the ad buy.

So I know that, like I said, I mean, the ad came out a little while ago, but it's a. It's a Now it's a new ad buy that they started promoting this. And I think, and I was trying to look up the name of the. uh company that did it because oh real power tie. On it's Power Tie, but on Twitter or on X, it's called Real Power Tie.

They're the people who did it, and that's apparently what they do. This I'm gonna play it's only 30 something seconds They did the ad buy with this. This is literally the best ad. that has been made in the past twenty years. And I don't care who you are.

It is a good ad. This is Audio Soundbite 1. I want you to watch this. If I give you one message to hold in your hearts today, It's this. Treat the word impossible.

as nothing more than motivation. Relish the opportunity to be an outsider. Because it's the outsiders who change the world. and will make a real and lasting difference. The more that a broken system tells you that you're wrong.

the more certain you should be that you must keep pushing ahead. must keep Pushing forward. That is the best ad I have seen in 20 years. It humanizes him in 37 seconds. It takes away the Uh any any of the mud slinging It takes away everything and it makes him look like And that's one of the things that the left has wanted to deny.

They want to strip their opponents of humanity because it makes it easier in their minds and hearts. It justifies. The nastiness that they demonstrate towards these people. If you strip someone's humanity from them, it's easier to treat them like nothing. And you can justify.

the depravity of your behaviour by telling yourself that they're inhuman. It is one of the scariest traits. of tyrants and the far left. It really is. And I've seen them try to do this now.

To J. D. Vance's wife.

So I saw this. Um Tweet. I saw this tweet. from this dude. And His name is Peter something.

I don't know. He's a goofball. He tweets this and he says: quote, back in 2007. when we were Yale China teaching fellows together. Boucher was a very organized and thoughtful person, serious about teaching and making a difference on issues such as women's rights.

painful for me to see her on the RNC stage right now. It's painful for him. You know, he's a man, mansplaining about women's rights. But yeah. He sounds like a guy who was friend zoned.

I find behavior like this absolutely abhorrent. I don't care what your politics are. People are still people. And she's still a person. I have never run for political office, and clearly I've never been married to anybody that's run for political office, but I've.

Experienced treatment by people over the years who have tried to assert that same proximity? who have tried to assert that kind of familiarity. for their own influence, right? I mean, even if we hadn't spoken in like a decade or were only ever mere acquaintances, there have been people who have cropped up in my life who've tried to do this, while also cutting me down. to whichever member of the press that would elevate their name in print.

It's gauche. It's desperate. To make idols? Out of your own political zealotry. to the point where You stop functioning.

like a civilized human. is depraved. That's just disgusting. And this guy is nothing to her. He's a guy who's trying to trade on her name all of these years later.

He's a guy who Apparently, it is enough of a weirdo to still keep these old photos. And then to say this about somebody. It's just so, that's just desperate and inhuman. But that's what the left does, and that's what they are. I mean, I've had people in my life that I've even had them on my home before.

And then, when your politics separate too much from where they're at politically. you cease being a human in their eyes. You are no longer a person. They will say whatever about you. They will cut you down.

They will try to destroy you, especially if it elevates their name in the printed media. Oh my gosh. Nobody these narcissists love nothing more than seeing their own name in print. But they In their minds, strip you of your humanity so they can. Justify.

not treating you like a human. ought to be treated. They strip you of your humanity to hide the fact that they've lost theirs. That's what the left does, because it's who they are.

So I started that net. That made me angry. And it's only just a taste of what's to come for her. I mean, she's already been through this to an extent. as the wife of someone who ran for Senate?

But that's about to get a whole lot hotter for her. Because what have we known from the left? We don't go after the left's kids. I've never went after the Obama girls. I don't go after, you know, I only go after kids if they're adults and they get involved in the political sphere, like Hunter Biden, right?

They've got little kids. Um What's I'm waiting for the press to go after them. The press always does that, the left always does that. That's shameful. Absolutely shameful.

These people.

Now, coming up, some of the stuff we're going to get into: policy, some of the policy that was touched on in the address, and then the Secret Service updates. Wait until you hear about this. The Secret Service is mad. Because we have been criticizing their lack of standards in hiring and the DEIification. of the agency.

So, Bob Newhart passed away at age 94. Lou Dobbs passed away. Last night, uh, it was announced yesterday, right, as well. Uh, 78 years old. He was very nice.

I was on his show several times. He was a super nice guy, but uh. Who was there? There was a third, too. I say this because I go by my grandmother's wife.

We've had a bunch, I mean, from Shannon Doherty to Donald. You're going to have to do the math on that to determine whether or not any other celebrities are. I mean I don't know. I think we do have six over the last. I think so, over the last week.

You better do the math.

So, my grandma's rule of three does not come into play here. Just saying. Let's see here. Also, this. I got a couple of others that I want to make sure that we get.

Oh, Halo, the series at Paramount Plus, was canceled after two seasons, probably because it was horrible. It was really bad. We can all agree it was really bad, right? Yeah, okay. A golf announcer accused Tiger Woods of taking a lot of painkillers amid a disastrous round at the British Open.

He says, look at the eyes. He said, look at his eyes. Was it really? Like, wouldn't that affect your... Performance?

Is golf getting all controversial now? I mean, I'm looking at the video. He's like, there's gotta be a lot of painkillers taken. I'm looking at his eyes. It doesn't.

I think he sank a birdie putt on his first whole. Yesterday. I don't even know what that is, but I watched video of him. I know nothing about golf. I'm not Kai Trump.

God love her. She's adorable. I don't know anything about Trump. He completed the ball in the hole with one less stroke than par.

Okay, all I know is I saw video Tiger Boys out there like swinging around, and I'm like, that does not look like a dude on painkillers. I'm sorry. It just doesn't. I don't know. Let's see here.

There's a couple. I know there's a couple others. This guy, I wanted to touch out. Wait, he missed the cut again, though? Steve adds at the last minute?

Yeah. He did.

Okay. At Kansas College, Professor was hospitalized after a bizarre chain reaction left him allergic to barbecue.

So he got bit by a tick, and apparently, the tick, if you remember the stuff that we've had on headlines before where it makes you, that's my worst nightmare. Apparently, they say, and I'm reading this: it's a complication that occurs. Body releases chemicals in response to an allergen. In this case, a compound in red meat that you can, the source of that can actually be a complication, something from a tick bite, like the lone star ticks. It's called the alpha.

GAL GAL SYNG AGS. And it emerges as like a digestive upset. And it says that the saliva and the tick or the tick saliva can contain a sugar molecule called AGAL, and that it can enter the bloodstream, sending your immune system into overdrive as a reaction if you eat like red meat. Or animal-based products like cheese.

Okay, I am not a conspiracy theorist, but What if these things were engineered to get people off of red meat animal products because of the green new agenda, and so therefore, this is how it's being introduced into the human population? You just spoke the most truth in like five seconds that I've ever heard in a while. Just saying, I speak truth every day, but I'm just saying, you know, as you know, speculatively. Just it's kind of weird, right? Right?

What do you think, chat? Right? Stick with us. We got more in store. According to a March 2024 report from the Association of American Medical Colleges, the U.S.

Your on-the-go guide for getting up to speed on today's most important stories. Subscribe on YouTube, Apple, or your favorite podcast platform. See News is now learning from two people familiar with the discussions that members of President Biden's family have talked about what an exit from this campaign might look like.

But those conversations are happening as the Biden campaign insists he won't drop out.

Well It's gonna be a fight, so They were saying that he was gonna drop out. I'm like, look, just Bear with me. First off, welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. Bear with me, because it said He was going to drop out.

Now he's not going to drop out. We saw the headlines that were, it was going back and forth, like all what came all yesterday, all yesterday. And last yeah, all day yesterday, all last night. I mean What do you think? I think they're trying to force him out, but Yeah, I think it sounds like his COVID's gonna get a lot worse.

Yeah. Your COVID's gonna get real bad, dude. Uh yeah.

So I don't I don't know. I I don't know. I um Uh I don't know what's they're going to try to push them out. They're cutting off the money to do it. Apparently, like the donors have stopped giving money.

They're saying that that whole donation cycle is, you know, pretty much ceased. They're not giving him any more cash. I don't know how that's, I don't know how this is all going to work for him. I really don't. But It's um Yeah.

It's bad. It's really bad. And then you have this, Audio Soundbite 20. Or no, it's not 20.

Sorry. I'm looking at, where's the one? Oh, audio somebody 24. This is what I keep hearing from. And it's not just, and I'm only playing this as a representation of what the left says, because I'm really done with the view.

I don't think that they're deep thinkers. But This is kind of, you know. par for the course, I think what a lot of Leftists, particularly like women who are trying to play identity politics, are pushing. Audio Sunbite 24, listen. Pushing back on with Alyssa is this notion that if he chooses to step down, which I do agree with you, that's his choice.

That's the only legal choice. Yes, there's a version that's not yet. It's his choice. I'm talking about this pressure campaign. It's his choice.

Kamala, if she is leapfrogged and there's some open convention, no Democratic nominee can win without the black vote. Black women will not support Kamala Harris being looked over. Why? Because she is ready. Overlooked.

She is ready to be the president.

Okay, that's the height of sexism, to demand that someone is owed something just because they've got a vagina. She's not her m her merit It doesn't meet it. Stop clearly. It barely did when she was in the primary. It's why she was in last place.

With Democrats. And she's not ready to be president. She really isn't. Of course, I mean, when you hear Joe Biden say things like audio sun by 27. Um Is he really?

Listen to this. This is so bad. I think that And one thing does change, it's not an excuse and explanation. I would ordinarily be going through Black dear marks.

Well, I'm crowning the foot. working through the neighborhoods. I have a tradition. I close every campaign, no matter what campaign, going into the projects and going down the east side. And hey, Joe, how are you doing?

Well just because of the referendum, let them know I'm still there. We can't do that now. Not because of the black community, because it's too dangerous for me to be out walking with other company. He's not unaccompanied. Never had Never has been.

I mean, you're not Trump for crying out loud. That's not that. Oh my gosh. Maybe he's talking about himself just falling down on a flat street. I don't know.

He says that he's lost support amongst black voters because he can't go through the projects on foot anymore. Is that what he's saying? That's what he's saying.

So that's too dangerous.

Well, there's the show, guys. Have a great weekend. Good night, everybody. I don't I don't actually have anything to say to that. Kane?

Well, I don't know what I am actually speaking about. Here's what I would say. Here's what I would say. A true leader. would not make up an excuse.

A true leader would go out and do what's necessary and not have an excuse for underperformance. It's just the way it is. Yeah. Well. They uh It's just not it's not this is not good.

I I the thing that worries me about all of this Let me just bring this up. I just saw this headline. It says, Iran is now one to two weeks away from reaching capacity of producing fissile material. for nuclear weapons, according to Anthony Blinken. Of course, you know, that was Joe Biden and Barack Obama, and then Joe Biden and Kamala Harris making that possible for Iran this entire time.

This is the most dangerous time for our nation is when we have these shifts like that. These these exchanges of power, right? The shift. It's Super, this is Blinken talking about, but Blinken. It's fascinating.

He blames not Biden, because remember, Iran did not have the cash to do this until we actually. let up on sanctions and an unfroze The assets that were being held from them. Listen to this: audio somebody 31. This is who blinked. This is not helpful.

How are you going to stop them?

Well, by far, the preferable way to do it would be through diplomacy. Where we are now is not in a good place. Iran, because... the nuclear agreement was thrown out instead of being at least a year away from having the breakout capacity of producing fissile material. for a nuclear weapon is now probably one or two weeks away from doing that.

They were one to two weeks. If they're, I mean, I think they've been closer to that this entire time anyway, but the reason why. They're in that position is because of the policy that was previous under the Obama administration that ceased under the Trump administration, and now you're seeing it again. With the Biden-Harris administration. Again, they unfroze assets.

They got an infusion of cash, and it enabled them to speed up this production. And I look at this and it is Insane. Because we are getting ready to I mean we're in an election cycle We could be witnessing. the same you know, a a switch in administration, you know, the bloodless uh change in power. And The Problems and threats around the world haven't ceased, they haven't gone away.

Now Democrats are just being honest about the fact that the guy who's in the White House and they're only being honest to their because it for once it's advantageous for them to be so. They have to be. They were forced into that by the debate. They have to admit that the guy who's in the White House, who's making ultimately the decisions about all of this, is also apparently like barely, he's not able to run for president. He's able to be president, he just can't run for it.

Because, you know, he's mentally and physically compromised, but he can, you know. Oh, my gosh Oh, my gosh And yet, in all of this, now I've been reading another, so here's another headline just popped up. Biden family starts discussing exit plan for 2024 race. Top campaign advisor insists that Biden will be the nominee. More and more Democrats are demanding that he quit.

More and more Democrats are demanding that he quit. Okay. We'll see. This weekend was supposed to be like the make or break weekend. And or not, the break.

It was supposed to be the weekend that he was going to be deciding.

So I don't know. I don't know what that. I don't know. Man. Man, audio sign by twenty six.

They're even joking about it on late night. Listen to this, Jimmy Fallon. That's right, Biden has COVID. Luckily he can't spread it because Democrats have been distancing themselves from him since the debate. Yep, Biden had fatigue, a cough, and brain fog, and then he got COVID.

Thankfully, Biden is expected to make a full recovery, and his doctors said that he'll be back to 60% in no time. Man. It's the it's the this Democrat Civil War is what we're seeing. It's gonna get nastier. This is going to get nastier.

So it's like literally just saying they They were saying that Biden was going to announce the withdrawal from the nomination like Sunday likeliest. And then they said, oh no, John Meacham's, he's polishing up the remarks that Biden's going to give. And then it went from that to, no, he's not stepping down anymore. Super delegate. They were going to, they said it was going to be, Biden was not going to endorse Harris.

It was going to be an open convention with Harris and like three other people. They said super delegates.

So that, so we've explained this before. Democrats have super delegates. And this is one of the reasons why Hillary Clinton was able to like snatch the nomination from Bernie Sanders. Remember, Bernie Sanders had actually won the nomination, but Hillary Clinton. All the superdelegates were on her side.

And so they changed the rules in the Democrat during the convention rules for Democrats during the primary because now they won't allow superdelegates to vote on the first ballot. Superdelegates are prevented from voting the first round. They can only go in the second round. And that was an actual consequence of Hillary Clinton marshaling all of the superdelegates to make her the nominee because she didn't have enough to get her across the threshold back in 2016 when she was running up against Trump in that Democrat primary. And so now they're apparently there's a number of people they're putting forward, maybe Andy Bashir out of Kentucky.

He would be the the one that I think I think Would be the best chance that they have because they have to moderate their platform at this point. It's too crazy. They have Josh Shapiro and then maybe Kamala Harrison, then Gavin Newsome. That's who they got. And Harrison Newsmbl of California.

I don't know. This is going to be super messy. It's going to get really bad. Like this is not even, we've not even begun, guys. We haven't even started.

So we're going to, because these headlines are going to come like every hour. It's like there, it is an absolute psychopattle. in this Democrat Civil War at this point, very, very fluid. I agree with Annie Oakley, who said, I would like to see every woman know how to handle guns as naturally as they know how to handle babies.

Now, I myself regularly conceal carry a nine millimeter.

Now, that said, not every woman is like me, has had the hours of training that I've had, or feels comfortable around firearms due to years of use, or maybe they're by a gun-free zone. I'd like to change that what I can while encouraging self-defense at the same time.

So, this is where Burna comes in. It's kind of like a starter weapon. It's they make a non-firearm firearm. I like the idea of incredible force sending chemical irritants towards a threat as an additional option for women.

Okay, I definitely want to do the Native American jewelry one or the Indigenous American Jewelry story. I did not even know that this is actually funny.

So, a Florida man got indicted in Wisconsin because he was selling fake Native American jewelry. Tampa Free Press.

Now The reason, and Kane's like, why are the penalties so strict?

Well, because he used the mail. Service. And when you use mail, that's a federal charge on top of it.

So that's why, yes.

So if you go back, so he got charged with wire fraud, mail fraud, and misrepresenting, which I didn't know it's a charge to misrepresent American Indian produced goods.

Okay. Uh Jose man. Manu Manala. That sounds right. Yeah.

of Castlebury, Florida. He Fake being a Native American like Elizabeth Warren, sold counterfeit jewelry. By the way, if that's a chart, why is it? Exactly.

So They said that blah, blah, blah, fraud for that, but he used the mail. And so when you use the mail the postal service in any kind of like fraud scheme or anything like that. Then It's considered, it's an additional charge amount. Like, for instance, the. Whole case, the guy that uh that Amy Coney Barrett, the the um Uh I can't the Canter V barcase.

The reason that guy got that charge elevated to a felony because it was a fraud case is because he used the mail. And that's why it was elevated to that felony charge. I thought it was about maybe he charged these guys like 500 bucks instead of like 20 bucks. Oh, you use the postal service. See, they can screw you, but you can't screw them.

Then I was thinking, if I'm the guy spending four figures or five figures on jewelry that's supposed to be like ancient Indian jewelry, I'm going to probably try and vet it a little better. You think? Why is the responsibility on the guy trying to make a buck? Wait, you're saying if you think that you're buying scammy stuff, you deserve it? Yeah.

Yeah, I don't disagree. Yeah. I mean, you know, if you think you're going to get a big old chunk of turquoise for like $5, then you probably deserve to be scammed. You're too damn dog. Yeah, and I get that.

I mean, if he's trying to pass it off like an investment, you know, then you do your vetting. Do your vetting. I'm just saying, you know, don't hate the play. I hate the game. That's literally what you just advocated.

That's your law. That's pretty much your law. Oh my gosh. Oh, let's see. I don't Okay, I do want to.

I saw this story.

Someone sent this to me. This is like a couple of days ago. And it made me think of The National Lampoon's Christmas vacation when Cousin Eddie's got his little camper outside and he's emptying the septic system into the storm drain, which you're not supposed to do.

Okay, well this lady... It's the Shadow Bay community. Apparently she did not realize that she could not just wash away concrete. End of the drain. And she did.

And it created total a total catastrophe. Yeah. Uh they said that uh the drain pipe they it it led to massive flooding, like massive standing water in the streets, all this stuff, 'cause she decided she was yeah, you can't rent, you can't do stuff like this. Uh and that was in uh what neighborhood yeah, the shadow North Shadow Bay Boulevard. the Shadow Bay Community.

And and it was made even worse after storms pushed through the area. You can't do stuff like that, guys. You you can't. Good heavens. Uh a Florida woman tries to talk a bystander into fleeing after crashing a BMW into a Popeye's chicken.

She is heard in the video going, I cannot go to jail. It was a Miami Popeyes. She crashed her car. Into a BMW, her BMW, into the front door of a Popeye's on Sunday. And the car plowed through a bus stop, smashed into the doors before finally stopping.

Thankfully, no one was injured. Channel 7 News Miami reported. They said that because there's video, the driver wasn't gonna stick around initially. And Yeah, that was going to be real serious if she actually had fled. And she.

One witness was approaching and tried to help her out. She said, Thank you. I appreciate it. I cannot go to jail. I can't.

I can't. I won't last there. And she goes, I gotta go, I gotta go. And he says, she's telling him, let's go, let's go in the video. Uh but someone convinced her to stay.

They didn't identify who it was, but Uh, someone finally convinced her to stay. She was charged with careless driving and driving too fast for conditions. It would have been a lot worse if she had fled. Like that would have been oh man, that would have been really bad. But also, w how do you plow through a bus stop and run right into a Popeye's chicken.

A man survives an attack by an eight-foot bull shark off of Key West. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh, it's crazy. He ought to get that bite mark on his leg totally tattooed, though. Jose Abru, 37-year-old spear fisherman, he was reeling in a catch on Monday, and an eight-foot bull shark tried to steal it.

But instead of grabbing the fish, I guess it's because he was bringing in the fish towards him, it grabbed his leg. twice and then went after his shoulder. He was able with a friend to fend off the shark and get to safety. There's video of first responders helping him off of the boat, and then they were trying to strap his leg, haul him onto an ambulance, all of that stuff. But he said he didn't have time to be scared.

He was just trying to figure out how to live. But his friend helped save his life, and he goes, man, that shark. He said the shark was super fast. And by the time he saw it swim up to him, it was too late. But my gosh, you had to be airlifted to the nearby hospital.

That's crazy. And I mean, the bite mark goes from all the way, like, mid-shin all the way up into the thigh. Above his knee. That's crazy. And the fact that it didn't take his leg off when you see the bite is wild.

I can't believe it didn't take his leg off. That's wild. And it went back for him like three times total. We have a lot more on the way, including I love the Babylon B headline. It said insiders say that Joe Biden is either going to stay in the race or get out, but one of the things for sure, We've got all the latest.

I know that there was not the same red meat, sort of blood and soil nationalism that you might hear in, I don't know, other parallel universe Republican conventions, but I do think there were some sort of Easter eggs of white nationalism in the speech. One of the things that stuck out to me was when he started talking about what America is.

He said, America is not just an idea. It is a group of people with a shared history and a common future. The thing about America is that it's not a group of people with shared history. That is the dumbest stuff. First off, that's not really what an Easter egg is.

It's not like. you know, some kind of Um Like referenced with a double meaning or something. And like that's usually what you would see in like movies or games or something. That's not what that is. That's just so dumb.

Kate was like, it's like these people are using the language of, you know, the current generation. Like, oh, hey, fellow kids. Right. Using some of your language. It's just not.

the same. That's so goofy. That's uh MSNBC. And first off, welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you, top of this third hour.

You can watch Channel 347, the simulcast of the radio program. If you're not listening terrestrially, find us on X. Rumble, all that good stuff. Um The Idea of a family plot. J.D.

Vance once made a joke. During his address when he was accepting the Vice President nomination, he made this joke where he was saying That you know, he had a family plot or something like that. And people act like it's like a white that's a white nationalist thing if you have a family plot. Are you kidding me? Is that a white that's how is that a white nationalist thing?

They hate normalcy, I think, and so they're trying to demonize everything that's normal. They've gone after his Venmo friends. I'm surprised they haven't gone after his Spotify His oh, wait, nope, that's actually they did. Oh my gosh, I literally was making a joke. as this story came up.

Ugh. I'm turning into The Simpsons. J.D. Vance's personal Spotify playlist littered with anti-Trump artists. Yeah.

Story. Hold up. Let me look at that. I can't believe that's a story. Hang on.

Uh hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, I gotta look at it. I can't. Oh my gosh! It's real. It is actually real.

It is so real. I can't. It's a daily dot piece. I was joking. This proves they have nothing.

They literally have nothing. I'm dying to know what's on this playlist right now. Right. A Spotify profile with his name. And a twenty twenty one photo of himself with his dad at a Trump rally shows the current Ohio Senator following three accounts Imagine Dragons, Rage against the machine.

and a lawyer who graduated from Yale the same year he did. And they said that He has seven public playlists. five of which he curated. And those include playlists named Making Dinner. Running number one, sold plus.

and two other playlists titled after songs, Morning is Broken by Cat Stevens and Gold on the Ceiling by Black Keys. The two playlists he did not create are acoustic covers and then apparently a lullaby because he's got three kids, like a little playlist of like kitty lullabies. That's so funny. What are we supposed to get from that? He's like Hitler.

If Hitler would have had a playlist, you know. And so here they go. Oh, okay, now to Steve, because Steve is like. waiting on the edge of his seat for this. He's got a 40-minute making dinner playlist that he created in 2012.

And it includes Justin Bieber's one time. Oh hell yeah. He's uh gold on uh the gold on the ceiling has Cheryl Crowe, Ryan Adams, oh, Lisa Loeb? That's some Death camp for cutie. Uh Tracy Chapman, Billy Bragg.

Uh Who else? I don't see many. Oh, and then they wait. This is an actual graph. Notably absent from Vance's public playlists are prominent Trump-supporting musicians like Ted Nugent, Kid Rock, and Trace Atkins.

Maybe he's not into that music. Steve, what were you going to say? You were going to comment on some of it.

Well, it's not a bad playlist, some of it. But also, we play a lot of songs, especially on the show, with artists that literally hate Republicans, but we still like the music, you know? Yeah. Yeah, exactly. That's a great point.

These, that's how the left is. I can't enjoy anything unless it agrees with me 100%. That's why their art started to suck really bad, too, by the way. I mean, nobody I don't Care if someone, oh, and I mean, and it went over all like all this. God.

That's just so bad. This is so this is so stupid. Th this is a hit piece? Oh my gosh, he's got Cheryl Crowe on a playlist. His Nazify playlist.

Oh my gosh, this is so stupid. And it's it's hang on, he's got uh Oh, he's got some U2. Um What else?

Okay, go. The killers. Matt and Kim. Um Bonnie Rates on his Morning is Broken playlist. Casey Musgrave's, let's see.

This is a milquetoast list. This is the press desperately trying to find something about him. Because see, he wrote the book about himself.

So there's nothing else they can do on him. He came out with, he's like, yeah, I got a mom who's a junkie and all this. I mean, he came out, there's nothing they can do. Not only did he come out with it, but he made a movie about it with Ron Howard for crying out loud. What else are they gonna and Glenn close?

What else are they gonna do? They're like, Damn, we can't go after him for having a junky mom Gosh dang it And then he had her at the RNC. And you know they're extra salty because Netflix reported that hill billiology is actually. Yeah. Doing well on these platforms.

Yeah. There's they they have no I mean, I can you imagine if they uh So, I don't know. Let me pull this up. I have a whole list on, I have a whole playlist on Spotify. Hold up, let me pull this up.

Uh Called Songs About People You Don't Like. Literally. You have a lot of other lists too. Oh sorry, dislike.

Songs about people you dislike. Uh Bee Went Nuts by Ben Fold. The jams scrape away. They might be giants. When will you die?

I Hate People by Anti-Nowear League. He was a big freak by Betty Davis. Kid in the ring, guns and roses. Part-time punks, television personalities, Rip Her to Shreds by Blondie, Vicious by Lou Reed. Waitress in the sky by the replacements.

No feelings by the sex pistols. Stupid girl by garbage. I mean, it goes on. I mean, can you imagine that she actually has a list about songs about people you dislike? That's literally what I call it.

I curated the list. It wasn't one from Spotify. He just has literally dinner time. And then the name of a gold black key song that he just didn't feel like titling the playlist. And then a lullaby song.

Oh my gosh. They are freaking out that there's nothing to freak out over. That's what it is. They're freaking out. And so they get mad because he talks about having a family plot.

Can I just talk for a minute?

So I don't know if it's like a thing. in like southern parts of the country. As opposed, I think they have family plots in like the northern Yankee parts of the country, for the lack of a better way to put it, right? That's why you have all those creepy old family cemeteries in like New York and things like that, right? Yeah.

It's not unusual. My family, on one side of my family, they have a family plot out in the Ozarks on top of a hill. They get a little over the top with some of the graveyard accoutrements. You know, like, I just think it's weird if you're putting wind chimes up in a cemetery. I'm like, who's listening to that?

You know, they, my family used to do this thing that I would make fun of called the Southern Graveyard Vigil. Where they would go and constantly put like knickknacks and stuff on like all the tombstones. And I would have an uncle that would get real mad and go up with a garbage bag and sweep it all up because he was tired of all the kin putting stuff up there on like fiber optic angels and all types of stuff. I'm not even kidding. Like it was over the top, right?

Like the pinwheels and everything. I like that's creepy. Stop. But it's just the thing. I don't know.

And it's not like it's a fancy thing. It's just plots in the earth. That's all it is.

So why are they acting like if I mean, if you look at like the left, they have like mausoleums and stuff like that. Stop it. It's not unusual, right? How is that white nationalism? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Like I said before, they're just trying to take normal and make it look weird. I I can't even. I don't know. This is, it's, this, these people are ridiculous. This is so ridiculous.

Well, you know, it's like um It's what? Nationalism. It's an Easter. No, it's just literally a cemetery. You dumb B.

It's a cemetery. It's not And I hate the media's phrases like Easter egg and, you know, dog whistle. That was another one, dog whistle, where no one said anything bad. It's just that the stuff they said could sound like.

something. This is so stupid, the media. And the left.

So is everybody a racist if they have a family plot? White nationalist, yeah. Oh, sorry, white nationalist, which is apparently not a racist, I guess. I don't even know that so if you have if you have A Family plot, that's white nationalism. Yes.

Which is that worse than racism? Or is it a l a higher level? Is there just base racism and then sounds like more official? Like you get like a patch or something. Like if you level up from racism, you go to white nationalism.

Yeah, I don't is that how it works? I don't know. Like when I like as opposed to that, compare I don't know what the left is really good about groups and lists and stuff. You know, and patches and armbands and things like that. That's like their thing.

So I don't know. I'd have to. I'd have to like uh um Brown shirts and stuff. Yeah, I guess. Yeah, I'd have to default to them on that because that's what they're really experts on.

Yeah, like everybody gets a brown shirt. Everybody gets an armband, right? That's like their whole thing. It's what they it's what they do. I'm just, you know, I don't know.

It just but they yeah, they went after his Venmo. J D Vance left his Venmo public. Here's what it shows Nothing. Wired ran a whole story on this. More than 200 people appear on Vance's Venmo list.

I mean they There's nothing really there. There's nothing there either. They're so mad. They're desperately trying to find something. And they can't.

They cannot find anything. Fancy's friends. I'm not, I'm reading from this article. Fancy's friends have an average of 277 friends each. Oh!

Uh I don't even No, this is so stupid. This is so stupid. This appears to be his actual contacts, said a guy at some leftist organization. Few of Vance's transactions are public. and those that are seem mundane.

Like a payment to a staff member for donuts in January. I am literally not making this up. Wow. They literally have nothing. Yeah.

Uh they I can't. And then they went and they found. One of Vance's former Senate campaign managers, Jordan Wiggins, who apparently would label. transactions with joke things. like back waxing or happy ending and adult and then like a Movie thing.

And Wired goes, Well, these descriptions are likely jokes. Wiggins didn't respond to a request for comment. Because you're a tool is why. I Cannot even believe this. Guys, they wrote.

Let me count the paragraphs for this story. But that 2012 Spotify playlist though. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19. Oh my gosh, 20 paragraphs. This is over 2,000 words.

Good lord. on mundane transactions from Venmo. Not a single human has made it through that full article. Oh my gosh. I can't wait for them to look at his open table reservations or his Instacart.

So a lot of questions because there's abandoned jet skis on the streets of Philly randomly. They dumped illegally, one might say. No one wants your stupid pop-up ad and I'm never going to go to bail now as a result of it. Let's see. The second jet ski was dumped illegally near in the city's northern section and they said that both jet skis because the other one was abandoned in a different like further south on the same street both jet skis had the name Kirby scribbled across the side.

Yeah. What?

Kirby. And it was in a towaway zone. As the second jet ski was there until like last night, apparently, and they finally removed it. But yeah, it has Kirby on the side. What do you think it is?

You were saying that this looks like a marketing thing. Yeah, one of those viral marketing things where who knows? Maybe is there something coming out with Kirby, the actual video game, Kirby? Or something? A little poof thing?

Yeah. I don't know. I don't know. That pink poof. It just seems like it would be a marketing thing where they're getting stories and it's all mysterious, and then boom, they're gonna drop something.

I don't know. A Sam's Club worker was left bruised after an Angry Family attacked her because she would not prepare two whole pizzas minutes before closing. Because that was a D-bag thing to ask the minutes before closing. It was in an Atlanta suburb, Henry County, and the employee was attacked. She and her coworkers were closing down.

A family walked in two minutes before closing and asked for two pizzas, two whole pizzas. And they said that when she told them it was too late to place an order, they started calling her names. The mother walked behind the counter to the kitchen and punched her in the face. Cheese over Oh my gosh, I don't even know. Um, let's see here.

I'm not doing this when it's gross. Uh Oh. This is uh the prime day orders.

So, Amazon delivery partner fired gunshots in South Philly during an altercation. What is Philly with the jet skis and this now? What the hell? During an altercation with a bus aide, a school bus was full of children. They And a delivery partner for Amazon fired gunshots during an altercation with the school bus aid.

So when they're not running into people and trying to deny accountability, they're firing shots. Yeah, who knew that? The bus driver wasn't able to make a turn because of a parked Amazon van, and the bus aide got out and asked one of the drivers if they could move. And then apparently the altercation got underway and the guy got a gun from his Amazon truck and opened fire on the bus driver. I mean You know, come on guys, deep exhale here.

According to your statement, it was a single content update that has managed to shut down air travel, credit card payment systems, banks, broadcasts, street lights, 911, emergency around the globe. Why is there not some kind of redundancy or some sort of backup? How is it that one single software bug can have such a profound and immediate impact?

Well, when you look at the complexity of cybersecurity, you're always trying to state one, excuse me, one step. Ahead of the adversary. Excuse me. Yeah. Can't leave.

Oh yeah, take it. Take a drink of water. That didn't go. That was the CEO of CrowdStrike, and he's like crashing as his software was crashing. That was Unfortunate.

Welcome back to the program. Dan Alive's with you. The bottom of this third hour. My gosh, I just uh can't. Yeah.

So, uh, but AI is going to be so great. Oh, yeah, I'm telling you, AI is going to be great. I saw. I think it was my oldest son that shared this video. Of They asked somebody, asked AI to do a metal show, a metal concert.

And it is. It is literally one of the craziest things I've ever seen. At some point, this guy just like turns into fire. He's. And he's playing.

This is wild. Oh, all right. I want to switch it up because we've got to talk about this. Hang on, where's this at? The Secret Service crying foul.

Yeah, they did. It came out, too, that this killer had threatened to shoot up his high school and put bombs in the bathrooms before. you know, like not too long ago, years before this attempt. Yeah, isn't that nice? And now you've yeah, there's all these there's all these like clear that's probably one of the reasons why the parents immediately went looking for him.

I'm sure more information is going to come out about that because our media is very interested in it. Way much more interested in that than the bandage on Trump's ear. Secret Service, according to NBC, says it's appalled by the DEI rhetoric against female agents after the Trump rally shooting. They're appalled. No, you can't be appalled.

They're appalled first. Too bad, because I am. I'm appalled. I'm a Paul Dest. I I got aggravated because I had uh Uh on Facebook, somebody that I is on my personal page, somebody was sharing the um Well, why doesn't anyone applaud this agent?

Because I'm not going to sit here and backpat people who did their jobs, man, or woman. But I am going to point out the chicks who didn't do their jobs or the dudes who didn't do their jobs. And it just so happens that the people who didn't do their jobs in this particular aspect or well was when they were hustling them into the car, and it was these two chips, two Paula Blarts. to steal from Kane. That we're doing this.

It was like watching Ghostbusters part two or three, like the chick ones, right? Jeez. Secret Service in a statement to NBC said that the criticism from pundits and influencers was basis, and the agency stands by its commitment to diversity in recruiting. as helping not hurting the effectiveness of its protective teams. Oh my gosh, I almost just I.

Oh gosh, I really wanna. say something politically incorrect. I think they should get fatter chicks. Just get some big old heifers, right? Get some meaty heifers and send them out there, right?

Why can't you get just giant guys that identify as chicks? No, that's good, merm. It's Friday. Happy you were going on vacation. No, I think they should probably get fatter chicks, Kane.

Show that you are so. I don't believe that you're committed to diversity, Secret Service, unless you get me a job of the hut type chick, right? I want like somebody who can't even go into a lane bright because they can't walk through the front door. I want that.

Somebody who you can't even put a holster on them because it would be like popping the casing on a sausage. I want that.

Like, prove to me that you're that diverse by getting get me a chunky hermaphrodite and like glue a holster to them. I gotta be honest, I'm not agreeing with you on this. No, no, no. I want them to prove it. I want them to prove it.

I want somebody that has to be. I want. Get me a chunk, get me some kind of chonky heifer that, like, job of the hut, that is to prove your commitment to like diversity and all this. And she has to have her own separate aide wheel her out, like on one of those flatbed things like they got at Lowe's when you go and you buy too much plants and soil. Get that.

I want that.

Get that out of there. Prove your commitment. And who would need a holster? You just put the gun right in a fold. Yeah, and then when she needs to fire, you just wheel her around in the direction that she needs to shoot.

So just do that. Show your prove your commitment. I don't believe you until I see that. I want to see a whole bunch of new recruits on those little fat flatbed trolleys. Going out there.

That's what I want. DEI. Didn't earn it. Yeah. That's D E I die hard, D E I.

Die hard. I mean, my gosh. But they were mad. Anthony Google-Me, whatever the hell his last name is.

Sounds right. Yeah, said in a statement. We stand united against any attempt to discredit our personnel and their invaluable contributions. to our mission. and are appalled by the disparaging and disgusting comments against any of our personnel.

I bet he pee sitting down. You know he does. Come on, don't. It's true. It's funny because it's true.

But hasn't he seen the videos? No, he probably hasn't. Yeah. He's probably too busy watching using government computers to watch porn. I don't know.

But isn't it fair that people would have that perspective? It's totally fair to expect, it's unfair to expect accountability from government. Come on. I mean, you know, your tax dollars I mean, what do our tax dollars get here? I want the best of the best.

You know, I'm honestly a little disappointed that my Secret Service agents can't shoot lasers out of their eyes for the amount of money that I pay in taxes. I'm ticked off. I'm hissed off, frankly, about this. I I pay so much in tax I want if something happens like What should have happened on Saturday for the amount of money I pay in tax dollars and the amount of money you pay in tax dollars is you should have had somebody up there take off their sunglasses like that dude from X-Men and just laser the ever-loving hell out of that guy. Actually, what would have happened?

They would have done that the moment he tried getting around the metal detector, just and then put the sunglasses back on. And there's no mess or cleanup because it just. You know, it just completely evaporates them. There's not even ash, it's just so finely. done that it's just smoke.

That's it. Right? That's what should that's what I expect from my tax dollars, right? What I expect from my tax dollars is some go-go gadget stuff, all right? Like, I expect.

Like damn transformers, they all should have formed a Voltron on stage. We should be like the bad guys in Terminator. Yeah, I'm telling you, for the amount that we pay in tax dollars. It should have been like, and I'll form the head, you know, and then they're with their feet and hands, and then they just boom, boom, and beat the hell out of all the threats. That's what should have happened.

By God, that's what we pay for our tax dollars. That's what we should get as America. I want a damn Voltron Secret Service agent. These are not unrealistic expectations. No, they're not.

They are not. They are very realistic. Ask Elon Musk. This can be made true. And instead, you got the media.

What's on his Vidmo? I will get his Spotify list. Just look how far our media has fallen. Like we they used to go like we had the penny presses and they used to churn stuff out in the bowels of the you know of colonist basements going at the going at the British and the British would be like you can't publish any more of this stuff this is considered they'd crank it out even more and now they're like you're Fenmo list hurt my feelings. That's where they're at now.

That's the evolution of the press or the deevolution of the press. No, for real. I We for what we pay, I don't care if you're, oh, you're offended.

Somebody died, you asshat. You're offended. Oh, I'm appalled. Guess who else is appalled? The family who's burying their dad today.

Anthony Googlio Googly, whatever your name is. You? Guy sits down to P, who's the Secret Service's Chief of Communications. He's appalled. Ask, hey, I wonder if the guy that they're putting six feet under today is a Paul.

Oh, wait, he can't be because he's dead. Because a guy that you guys allowed through shot and killed him. critically wounded two others, almost killed the President of the United States. I'm appalled that people are appalled. I'm appalled that you're appalled that people are appalled.

I am appalled than you. He adds this. He goes, It's an insult to the women of our agency to imply that they're unqualified based on no, we're assuming that they're unqualified based on the fact that they are visibly untrained fat asses. Or very? On video.

This is not like, yeah, this is not something that happened in secret that you're hearing third-party information about. It's something that happened like visibly on camera that we all see. And they weren't, and not, and you already admitted, all of them weren't secret service agents. We're specifically talking about the ones that were fumbling with stuff and didn't know where to go. I'm not going to sit here and pay this indulgence of, oh yes, the one agent that was on stage, yes, she did a great job before I can criticize anyone else.

I shouldn't have to do that. That should smart people understand what I'm saying here. But of course Anthony googly googly sits down to pee doesn't understand that 'cause he's not one of the smart people. You gotta be kidding me. I mean, this is, you know, criticism of the female agents had been different.

No, I would be meaner, probably. No, I probably wouldn't be. I'd be as mean if it were dudes. But we just see the women because they were the two chicks, because they were right there in that footage that we were looking at. My only criticism of the people, and it wasn't just the woman, I think it was the other dude that was with her when they were on stage, is that they weren't.

I just think, you know, if you're if you're protecting, if your principal is like 6'3, maybe be bigger than 5'7. I'm just saying. Chick or dude. That's so mean. Yeah, it is because I'm more interested in protecting lives than wrestling the Jimmies of your feelings.

That's why. Get over yourself. These people that make an idol of their own feelings and put that as a greater importance, prioritize that over the protection that these people's positions are there to serve. Get real. Golly.

I mean This It's perfectly, completely reasonable. And this chick, Cheetah? She's unqualified. And it's evident, by the way, she's running this agency. These criticisms didn't just start Saturday.

They predated that. In fact, Trump, there's a tweet that he's got some years back where he was actually talking about that. He said, this chick needs to be replaced. This is not. I actually retweeted it.

So this idea, this is we're not going to allow this argument as a distraction from accountability because that's what they want to focus on. Oh, how you're only criticizing them because they're women. No, we're criticizing them because they were incompetent. And we're saying that they're women because they were women. Don't get it confused.

That is, that's mind-rot. That is so dumb. This isn't a mop, Bailey. This is, it is what it is. This is, these people were unqualified.

These two people who were unqualified in the camera happened to be chicks. And I'll go out and say it. I don't think a woman should be taking a bullet for a man. I don't think a woman should be going out there providing executive protection for a dude who's like, you know. 6'3 and she's 5'7.

This is basic. Leonidas versus Xerxes science and logic here. Is it about protection or is it about you? Because if it's about you, then you're not in this for the right reasons. Get out.

So, someone who can be in it for the right reasons can be in it. You sound like a bitch when you whine about how these people are being criticized. I'm not apologizing. No, you sound like that. This is ridiculous.

You're talking about the protection of the president of the United States. And like I said, I don't previously, I don't care if it's a Democrat or Republican for crying out loud. We are the leader of the free. This is the leader of the free world. We are the most powerful nation on the planet.

Should we not have security that represents this for our world, our leader? Should we not? Because it's not just the leader of the United States. That leader is an avatar for something. That avatar is representative of the bloodless transition of power.

That avatar is representative of millions upon millions of choices that have been given by voters through their authority, through consent of their vote. That is what it is representative of. You're not protecting just a person. You are protecting the ideal of this republic manifest by this position. That is what that security protects.

And I dare say that we deserve better than what we got on Saturday. I'm actually finishing my, I think it's my second cup. I probably should know that, right? Black Rifle Coffee, veteran-owned, veteran-run. They hire vets and active duty.

As you already know the assassin's bullet.

came within a quarter of an inch of taking my life.

So many people have asked me what happened. Tell us what happened, please. And therefore I will tell you exactly what happened. And you'll never hear it from me a second time because it's actually Too painful to tell. It was a warm Beautiful day.

in the early evening in the great common honesty of Pennsylvania. Uh I mean, you had to expect that he was going to talk about it. He was going to, you know, obviously discuss it. It's his first anything since. uh this attempted this attempt on his life.

And we're still trying to get More details. I know House Oversight. They're whole uh they're kicking off their investigation next week. into how this was even possible. How was this possible?

All of the The different Things that fell apart that allowed for this situation to take shape and for this guy to get shots off. to even get close and then it gets shots off. I mean, it's just crazy. It's it really is nuts. uh when you consider it.

It's it's just this is there's it's Yeah. But uh the R and C, we're going to start getting some of the polling in. That we're going to pay attention to as we go into next week to see. I'm sure that people are racing to try to see what kind of convention bounce or what the polling has changed after the attempted assassination. It's going to be a week ago tomorrow.

Isn't that crazy? A week already. And I will say this: you know, for the people who said that, oh, Trump's speech went on for too long. You know what, though? I think it's further.

A further contrast, Biden couldn't do it. Biden can't talk for 92 minutes. How is he even going to be able to speak at his convention if he lasts that long politically? And we'll watch that as well. Today and Stupidity Came.

It was nice to see Trump started off all meek and script. And then by the end, he was like his old self again. Almost, but it was still tempered, though. Really liked it. All right.

The view. Look, Anna Navarro is talking.

So we all. One of your favorite people. It's pretty stupid.

So let's hear it. If Biden had been up there giving that speech, men in white coats would have interrupted him and carted him off and put him in a padded wagon. I thought today I would wake up and the TV would be full of doctors talking about Donald Trump's cognitive decline. I thought it would be full of Republicans hanging their heads in shame like Democrats did. Joe Biden had a bad 90-minute debate.

He said it's one episode. That's what we've seen so far. What we saw yesterday was insane. Whatever's going to sign her check, because she's a sellout over at the VO. She is.

Folks, that does it for us this week. Have a glorious, safe weekend, and I'll be back with you on Monday. God bless.
