Tuesday September 3 - Full Show

You have to listen to her in the right way. She actually has learned a really effective way of speaking smoothly. She does these triplets and she'll say the ambitions, the hopes, and the aspirations of the American people. Those three things are really all the same. The reason she did it is not because she's stuttering, it's because that is her way of not saying um.

She's avoiding saying um or hesitating. She wanted to say aspirations and then she'll give the synonyms as she waits. That's a form of being articulate or. If you watched her last night, then you could see that what she was really doing was she wanted to do two things. She wanted to talk about economic policy.

She had a list in her head and she wanted to keep saying, you got the feeling she had been told and she agreed that we can't look backwards. Anything else that Bash said to her, her thought was, how can I bring it back to that? And that meant that you couldn't listen to her like she was trying to write an article or something like that. What you say isn't always what you mean. She speaks ritualistically like a politician.

asks you, do you have the time? Your answer is not. I do. Do you have the time? Yes, it's four o'clock.

You have to understand that words don't always mean what they mean. I don't know what the hell I'm hearing here. Just so can we just please, dear God, let the sweet meteor of death come and knock us worthless meat sacks off this godforsaken rock? I say this not as a joke. I really pray for the world's end.

This is the stuff that we this is the analysis. This is the Well, we're Wor I mean words don't necessarily mean what they mean. I lived through this already with What was it, is? What does is mean? We we lived through this already with Bill Clinton.

And I just don't feel like doing it again with this Godforsaken news cycle. I don't feel like doing it again with this insane candidate because. Yeah. Take responsibility for your words, or just don't do it. Don't run for office.

It's not very difficult. Welcome to the program. Dana Lash with you. I'm just going to get you set up for this week, for the show here. The stuff that we have happening because it's.

You know, we're we're I mean Days out from early voting. I think North Carolina, I think, is the first state that does early voting. And then after that, you have a handful of these other states that are going in. And I I I mean, we got some polling to go into. and some of the other stuff to touch on as it pertains to uh Enthusiasm, what else?

We got a few other things. The bottom line is that Republicans need to kind of get it together. We have no time for distractions. I have no time for anyone's NFTs, dumbass shoes, or anything else. Sell policy.

That's what we want. We want policy. And I'm going to tell you, I'm going to have some harsh words for voters coming up. And I know that's going to probably be mean. And you're not supposed to ever talk about that kind of stuff.

And you're never supposed to, you're supposed to treat voters like they're babies, right? That's what you're supposed to do. You're supposed to treat, I don't, I don't, I'm not a politician.

So, I don't have to care about votes. I can be honest about stuff. But over the weekend, I've had so many conversations with people and just different events in that where. I mean, people, a lot of these politicians feel like they've got to Uh, babysit voters, and I think some of the voters out there, even some of the ones on the right, are acting like they also have to be babysat.

So, we're going to talk a little bit about this because I was just a little shocked about like the outreach and some of the other stuff and having some conversations over the over the weekend.

So, I hope everyone had a nice extended weekend. I'll talk a little bit about my thoughts on Labor Day. I think it's kind of ridiculous that we have an entire observance for less than 20% of the American workforce, but I disagree. I don't get into communist stuff, and I don't care if people are upset by it. I just don't, I have to sit here talking about Kamala Harris today, you know, for the love.

And that's like the last thing that I, that I want to do. Because I'm done with this woman. I've never been more done with a candidate in my entire career than I am with her. You guys do not understand. I, I.

Do not I don't like her and I have a hard time with female politicians anyway because I I expect all of them to be like Margaret Thatcher no nonsense and they're not and I just I have a problem with her because I feel like she is an underwhelming candidate She's a candidate who can't speak. She's a candidate who's being fast-tracked because she is the only one there. The other ones aren't ready yet. Democrats messed up when they decided to go with Joe Biden. They ended up messing themselves up going with Biden.

And now they're in this position with Kamala Harris. And so I. Not a fan, not a fan, not a fan. Just saying. All right, let's get into it.

The Accent Oh yeah. Which do you want to hear? First, the regular? I don't know. Probably the Go ahead.

Kill me. Go ahead. Do it. Is it her? This is over the weekend.

Unions for sick leave, bank unions for paid family leave, bank unions for your vacation time.

So that's our regular first off no. Uh if you like let's get real r real real. Technically, Philip II of Spain back in old year of 1594 created the eight-hour workday. And if you like a five-day work week, think a billionaire. Thank Henry Ford, who created it, not because he was forced to by his government or for any kind of communist tactic, just because he simply wanted to compete.

And steal workers, poach workers from his competitors. And so he did what he could to hire the best workers, and he ended up bringing in, so he did that the five-day work week.

So it was actually, and that wasn't because government compelled him to. And there were people who tried to organize before that, but they were entirely unsuccessful and it had absolutely zero impact. And the only impact that actually was taken was when they finally. Finally, uh When Henry Ford did it, and this was that was what in 1926, 22, 26.

So that's when he did it.

So he combined the eight-hour workday with the five-day work week and lured his lured workers from competitors. It wasn't unions that did that. People can get mad at me all they want to. The drive-bys, pound all the sand. Nobody cares.

It was Henry Ford. Get mad. Chuck on history. Choke to death. I don't care.

It was Henry Ford who did it. Henry Ford created it. I don't know. Henry Ford, I think, was kind of a jackwagon personally, wasn't he? Didn't he have some baggage?

He had a little baggage from what I read. But he was the one who created the five-day work week. It wasn't union.

So I'm not going to get in here with this Marxist fairy tale and blow smoke. This is what gets me with Democrats and voters. Democrats go out there and they will drop trout and defecate on the working man every other day of the week. But when it's a campaign season, my guy, they got to go out there and they're going to use all this populist rhetoric, sidebar. Populism is not a belief set.

Dear God, can we please correct this in the conservative language? Populism is a tactic. It is not a belief set. It is a way of messaging. It is a way of speaking.

It is a way of narrative. It is not a belief set. You are not a populist unless you use the tactic. It does not describe your belief set in limited government, etc. It's how you talk about limited government.

That aside, they go out there, they defecate. On the working man every other day of the week, right? And then it's campaign season. Oh my gosh, we're going to go out there and we're going to talk a really big game about the working man. We're going to talk, oh, yeah, workers, we love you, workers.

I mean, keep in mind, we're going to tax you to death. We're going to tax the food right out of your family's mouth. We're going to tax the roof right off of your house. We're going to tax you right out of your dwelling. We're going to tax you right out of your job.

We're going to do all of this. But yeah, we love the working man. They they trot this messaging out. Just to make for optics, just to give them this perception that they're somehow for working class people when we know that they're not.

Now, they've been battling with Republicans over this populist messaging, with populist messaging over blue collar.

So, Pennsylvania is an area where they've been battling. A couple others in the Rust Belt. Democrats were going after what they said were Trump's union record and battleground state. Who chased away the jobs? That's the question.

Who chased away the jobs? Who made it impossible for people to start manufacturing and expand manufacturing in the United States? Who was it that did that? Exactly. It wasn't I mean, I dare say, I don't care if you like Trump or hate him, it wasn't him.

It was Democrats. Democrats have been doing this forever because they feel like they've got a p they don't understand that punishing people that they are jealous of in terms of capital punishes the people for whom they create capital with. And so this was this whole weekend. I don't know. She had an abh abhorrent response too because it it came out over the weekend.

uh the uh is more hostages held by Held by Hamas in Gaza were killed. And this, she was asked about this. She had a really bad. She just had a bad audio sound or a bad response to this. And I think it.

goes into Her, um Complete lack of wherewithal. She had this. She tweeted, quote, POTUS and I met with U.S. hostage deal negotiation team. The murder of Hirsch, Goldberg, Poland, and five other hostages was a brutal, barbaric act by Hamas terrorists.

As POTUS said, Hamas leaders will pay for these crimes. Then she added, It's long past time for a ceasefire and hostage deal. We need to bring the hostages home and end the suffering in Gaza. What do you mean you need a ceasefire?

So, you want more hostages to die? Whenever I hear people say ceasefire, what you're saying is you want Hamas to kill more people. Why don't you go over there and be one of Hamas's brides at this point, all these apologists? I mean really Just go ahead and you're nothing but a rhetorical mattress for these people. Go over there.

Go over there and prostitute for terrorists. Anybody calling for a ceasefire now is a prostitute for Hamas. There's no other way to put it. That's what's prolonged this thing as long as it is. Bring the hostages home and end the suffering in Gaza.

Well, what do you need to do to do that? Go just let Israel annihilate Hamas. Just let him do it. Let him do it and get it done. You'd have these people back home by now.

That's the quickest way to end suffering. Just an absolute these negotiations. I mean, this is just appeasement to Hamas. Having a ceasefire is nothing more than capitulation in the face of terror. What a just a tone-deaf statement that she that she had come out with.

Just asinine. And While all this is happening, while these terrorists were holding these hostages, and while these hostages were being killed, I think Biden was on the beach. Pretty sure. Wouldn't he still vacationing on the beach? Believe so.

Still vacationing. on the beach. The Response here. She just had a bad weekend. This is why they don't let her out near the press.

It's why they make her walk out with headphones. Her latest. Her latest thing, she was walking out with earbuds in, wired earbuds, and then she held her phone up to her head to talk into the phone, but she had wired earbuds in. And I don't, it was weird. It's like that, I don't, she's like walking out clearly.

I mean, we all know that she's got, oh, then she's going to put these in, she puts her headphone. She doesn't want to talk to the press, and so she wants to act like she's on the phone. Everybody knows that when you're getting on a jet bridge, even a jet bridge, it's not a private plane like this, and you're not out in the wind, and you're not going up, you know, the steps to it. Everybody knows that it's loud. You're not going to be able to hear anybody anyway.

Stop acting like you're taking a phone call. Stop. That's so stupid. That's like that. What is it?

That's like what basketball players do when they go in and they listen to the music that pumps them up as they're arriving on court or when celebrities are trying to avoid paparazzi. Coming up, we've got her other accent. We're going to talk about her foghorn-leghorn routine. We've got some law and order as well. Do you realize that up to 70 cents a per right now?

So, Facebook, obviously, they listen to your phone's microphone. By the way, Facebook burned in hell to serve ads for stuff that you mentioned. You know, they do this, right? That's why all the stuff, every time you talk about stuff, it pops up in Facebook ads. This happens all the time.

There was a leak that came out. It's been reported. They said 404 media says that documents were leaked, blah, blah, blah. It says that the so-called active listening software uses AI to capture real-time intent data by listening to our conversations. Not a surprise.

Let's see this. I don't understand why people are like this. Louisville, Metro Police. They're looking for a dude who has defecated on the same porch multiple times over the past week on their porch camera for no reason. Police confirmed with WAVE News that they've received three police reports about this alleged perpetrator.

Uh, maybe just, I don't know. I think I'd throw open the, I think I'd try Joe Biden maneuver at that point. The only time it's safe to kick open your door with a shotgun. Just saying, it's kind of weird. They're like, well, he's not violent or trying to do fourth century.

I think that's bioterrorism.

So I would classify that as violent. Yes, that's, I get when you're on my property, the fun thing about that is I get to classify your intent. That's a consequence of trespassing on my property. If you don't want me to misclassify your intent, don't trespass on my property. The end, super easy.

Monkey pocket pandemic, monkeypox pandemic. Because they say there are fears of this, thousands infected with the disease in just one Brazilian city. Stop having sex with dudes, dudes with dudes, indiscriminately, and maybe you won't have this problem. I know it's not PC to say. I know we're supposed to pretend like we're morons and we don't know where it comes from, but that's where it comes from.

Stop acting like it's universally applied to all of the humans in our species because it's not. Carnivore, it may not be for everyone. It is. Doctors say this trendy diet could lead to heart issues and dementia. Stupid doctors could also lead to heart issues and dementia.

That's another fun study. No that they just don't want you to eat red meat and they want to scare you with this. Medical fear porn. That's all it is. And it's this stupid podcast that I'm not gonna promote by mentioning it, but some guy was saying, oh, carnivores with your diet can contribute to overall systemic inflammation, et cetera, et cetera.

Interestingly, because my nutritionist and my endocrinologist and my doctor said the absolute opposite. Huh. One of them is one of the leading medical professionals in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

So, and he just doesn't, he doesn't have enough time because his practice is so successful that he doesn't have time for podcasts. Just saying, Americans are moving at the lowest rate in decades, according to the Census Bureau. I don't know if I believe this.

Well, they just measured this for 2022. They said fewer than 9% of Americans moved in 2022. It was nearly 20% in the 1960s. They're blaming a collision of several factors, including COVID. I think they're all leaving blue states for red states.

I don't think that they're, I don't think that this is being. judged adequately. Coming up. Harris and the left versus Gold Star families. And we got to talk about Foghorn, Lakehorn.

Got to talk about that as well. Stick with us. Hi. I'm Matthew, a theater major at Hillsdale College. Here's Hillsdale President Dr.

Larry Arne with a Constitution minute. The great Abraham Lincoln described the Constitution as a picture or frame of silver, built to guard or protect an apple of gold. This apple of gold was the Declaration of Independence and its principle of equal rights for all. This principle of equal rights, Lincoln said, clears the path for all, gives hope to all. And by consequence, enterprise and industry to all.

There are many today who seek to limit or distort this great principle by employing a distorted definition of equality and equality of condition or outcome, regardless how people live their lives. This distortion, if generally accepted, will lead to an America less prosperous and less free. To learn more and get a free pocket constitution, visit. Constitution Minute.com.

For the five-day work week, you better thank a union member for sick leave. You better thank a union member for paid leave.

You better thank a union member for vacation time. Foghorn Leghorn. Foghorn Leghorn. I want to first off Do you know uh What accent was that? From Kamala Harris.

What accent even was that?

So she's like, You remember? Can I just hear her say? I'm sorry, Wand. Can I just hear her say that one part? Because how does she say it?

I'm trying to get. the enunciation down. It's very foghorn leghornish. For the five-day work week, you better thank a union member for safety. You better thank a union member for pay.

leave you better thank a union member What accent is that? It is very Fargo and Leghorn. Nah, listen here. Say here. It's very much like that.

The same words from her, though, just in a different audience, sounds. Thank unions for sick leave. Thank unions for paid family leave. Thank unions for your vacation time. Yeah, but.

She's okay, well you know the issue here. She she's She's pandering. It's, you know, very, very simple. Welcome. Welcome back.

Everybody to the program Dana Lash with you, your lovable curmudgeon. Bottom of this first hour. I want to I want to try to every now and then I do this explainer about vocal. presentation when you're a politician. And I'm going to Get into it, but just a just a word.

So, you probably noticed my voice has been a lot lower, and I've it's cracked and all this stuff lately. I was a little afraid that I had nodules on my vocal cords and I was a little freaked out about it.

So, Friday, when we were all off, went and got scoped and all this. Good news is, don't have anything like that on my vocal cords. The bad news is they were, quote, immensely swollen. And it's due to some sort of environmental allergy. We got to figure it out.

And they put me on a lot of roids to try to get because it's been like this for months to get that down. And I'm. I was told that when I don't have to speak, I'm not supposed to. Oh. Yeah.

Isn't that me? I'm not like going to carry around the little board, like an old pioneer character, and write stuff on my little board and show it. I'm not going to do that.

So anyway, I say this because I don't know The reason I bring this up Not just to share it with you, because some of you have written and said, you sound hoarse, or you know, what's you we can tell something's different. But Because I may not be able to as bombastically ex do an explainer on what I think she's trying to do here. first without informing you of that.

So The Yeah, as Juan says, we may have to get Dana one of the wick buttons. I'll explain that later. Thanks, Juan.

So great, Juan. Gonna have to. I'm just going to have to get what I'm gonna have to get those buttons. No, don't like. No.

Oh. So we're gonna have to do.

Well, I did. I went in because I was terrified that I had... Like nodules on my vocal cords. I could not explain what was going on. I wasn't sick, it was nothing like that.

But it was demonstrably different. And a lot of you had written and and said, Oh, I hope you're feeling okay, you sound sick, and my voice cracked and Couldn't sing in church and it was just real rough. And so I went in. And so I've been on these Roids, and I gotta go back in a week and do all this stuff. But anyway, Long story short, they said they were immensely swollen and that's why.

It was You know, and and and I'm forcing a lot of air through them to Make it work.

So we'll see. I can still tell a difference, but We'll see. Anyway, my whole point in bringing that up, like I said, is I feel like she's trying to do. And I've talked about this for a decade. What I call Southern Baptist preacher speaking technique.

Now, I say this as someone who's raised Southern Baptist, so I can say that, and don't bat an eye at me because I ain't going to have it. Y'all know that's what she's doing, right? It's called the Southern Baptist Preacher. Speaking technique and it doesn't matter. What ideology of politician you are.

It doesn't matter if you're black or white. if you are man or if you are woman. It is a technique that predominantly Democrats use whenever they're speaking to large groups of people and they need some populism. They need to make it populism-y.

So they start doing this. And I've told people before how you can read. the ingredients off of a You know. Box of macaroni and cheese, and you can make it sound authoritative. They do this kind of stuff to make them seem.

like they're one of the people to give it a revival flair. And to get everybody amped up over what they don't know. They just know that someone's accents changed and whoa. They're very excited about this. And it's very simple.

Right? I feel like I ought to do one of our live reads in the Southern Baptist preacher speaking technique. You know, almost just as a, I don't know who, I don't know who it would be, but just, you know, as a way to sort of. Further illustrate. But what I'll do, what do I got here?

What do I got? I got something. Do I got something? I got a Kleenex box. I got a Kleenex box here.

Right? I can well, there's not a lot to read on it.

Well Damn, what do we got? What can I read? I don't want to read that. I don't know what that is. Should have thought about this.

Give me something bland and basic to read. Is it like an aspirin bottle? Zinc. Zinc. Yeah, just go ahead.

I don't care if I'm friends here. Just go ahead and hand it. There you go. Thank you, Kane. Thank you, Kane.

What else do you have over there? I've got healthy supplements. Kane has an entire CVS replete with receipts over at his desk. 10%, 12% of a CVS. He just handed me bottles.

He's got other big bottles. I see a giant bottle of fiber over there. Is that like you're supposed to?

Okay, sorry.

So, why is it, why is the letters so little? Yeah. So the Southern Baptist preacher speaking technique. Again, predominantly Democrats, but it's a vocal affectation whenever they want to sound authoritative and they want they're trying to connect with people and they're trying to give it this revival type air.

So we're going to demonstrate the Southern Baptist preacher speaking technique. And again, I was raised that way. I can do this. with this essential zinc.

Now remember it's very important to have peaks and valleys. whenever you're doing the Southern Baptist preacher speaking technique. And by that I mean you've got to bring it up. And then you've got to bring it back down. You got your peaks.

And your valleys.

Now that's just How your volume and your pitch. I'm not even getting into the accent yet. Because that's an interesting one. She sounded. like a bastardized fog horn leg horn.

Y'all know that big old rooster?

Now listen here, boy, I say here, I say here, I So I'm going to demonstrate the whole thing. We're going to read about clean nutrition. Oh boy, with these people. This is essential zinc. It is called.

Essential zinc.

Now see, it's very important to overemphasize any consonant at the end of a word. Essential Zinc. 50 milligrams.

So you got your peaks and valleys in there, right? Peaks and valleys.

So they say that They're talking about this company. It's non of course it's non-GMO. They believe in clean Nutrition. And being transparent. See you get your peaks and valleys.

And we're overemphasizing the consonants. That's why You won't what is this word? Why you won't find genetically modified ingredients?

Now see, it's very important to Punch in the face every syllable of the word that you're reading because that's. The verbal version of an underscore and a bold. And maybe even in italic too, right?

So Keeping with reading just how simple everyday practicing with the Southern Baptist preacher, speaking technique, trademark bling. You will not find gluten Weaked up. Dairy. Lactose. or artificial flavors in any of Of our products.

Now you see, I see Keynes over there, like he's he just automatically is like, amen. That's it, sir. You sound Authoritative. slightly terrifying. And also You are inspiring some sort of reaction.

We don't know in the person who is listening to you and receiving the message that you are delivering to them, right? And so It's very simple when you're doing the Southern Baptist preacher speaking technique. You don't want to sound too much like Foghorn Leghorn, but. You want to make sure that you're overemphasizing and that you're getting those peaks and valleys. And that there's dynamic.

You don't want to be one tone the whole time. You got to bring it back. And then you gotta very slowly take it back out to create anticipation. In the hearts and minds of the people listening. See, it also makes you sound wise.

'Cause all old people back in the days of your, I think, talk like that.

So. Anybody can do it. She tried doing it there. Can I hear her one more time? She tried doing it there.

She just sucks at it. I mean, she's from California, you know? That's like getting sushi at at Sam's. Go ahead. You better thank a union member.

Better thank a union member. No, listen. You better thank a union member for paid leave. Okay, okay.

So, first off, you can't have your voice like way up there in the trees, you know, way up there in the clouds. You gotta bring it back down.

So, if I were her, I would say, You better think Henry Ford. For giving you that five-day work week. You better think Philip the Second of Spain Who back? in the years fifteen ninety four gave you The eight hour work week. See?

You gotta you can't just She's just too much. She didn't even know how to do it right. But again, she's a Californian. It's like I said, it's like getting sushi at Sam's. It's like you wouldn't go to Burger King and ask for a taco.

Why in the hell would you go to California and expect her to do the Southern Baptist preacher speaking technique? You know what I'm saying? Just not the same thing. It's not the same thing. Do you want your zinc back?

You got more over there? I'll just get it there in the commercial work.

Okay, all right. I was just asking. I didn't know if it was like something you needed now, or you know, you've got a lot of stuff over there, though. Yeah. So She just Did that sounded lame?

The way she did it sounded bad, and it sounds it's pandering. You better thank the federal government for shutting down your business during COVID, making you all go broke. I mean There's so many that's the problem with her line of reasoning with that. That you could take that so many different ways. Why are we still talking like we live in the 20s, by the way?

Why are we still. As though No one can get like fair hours or wages determined by the market at their job.

Okay, think about it. Imagine, you know, I would love to make as much money as Jeff Bezos. But you don't see me out in the street. protesting for it. Because I don't want to put, I'm going to be real with you, I don't want to put in that kind of time.

He worked in his parents' garage. And he worked all the time. He had no free time. I like to have some free time because I, you know, I literally just pre-purchased Space Marines and it comes out Thursday, and I'm like waiting for, well, For all those of us in pre-order, it comes out Thursday. And Jeff Bezos would not stop and do that.

Jeff Bezos would be like, I'm going to go work another 1,811 D hours. I don't want to do that. I'm going to be honest with you.

So, why should I get a claim of what he makes or make what he makes because I don't want to put in that kind of time? What? And and work 24-7. Why? Why should should someone get paid Elon Musk's salary if they're not w willing to do Elon Musk's work?

People act as though the determining factor of wages. is some magical arbitrary made-up thing. And that it's not done by market demand. This is why I point out the difference between teacher salaries and like professional athletes like baseball players. Actually, when I was On um Bill Maher show one time, John Legend and I kind of Weird, got into it over that.

And he gave that example. And I said, Yeah, that tells you what society values.

Society, people are going to spend money on bread and circuses. They're going to spend money on going to sports entertainment and doing things like this. One of the problems with, you know, for instance, comparing that to teacher salaries is you're forced to give the bare minimum. You know, it's forced mediocrity. You're tied to property taxes.

Imagine how much better it would fare if people actually could, you know, have all that money back and then they could pay to send their kids where they wanted to go. Everybody could afford it, by the way. Everybody could afford it. It doesn't matter your size. You could afford it.

And he had never thought about it that way before. I know he hadn't. But It's market demand and market, you know, what that people will pay for what they value. And when you've got the government setting arbitrary standards, you're really shortchanging people that you claim to value, but you know. It's just a very odd thing.

I mean, they they really don't They really don't get it. We're going to talk a little bit more about this because I got really aggravated at Facebook over the weekend, the capital gains stuff. explaining something about capital gains and they keep putting up misinformation things on my posts. Those stupid little fascists, those glorified baristas that work at Facebook, who've never, you know that they've never made payroll a day in their life. You know that they don't, they've never, ever, ever, ever had to live off of entirely what they've earned, ever.

You know these people haven't. They have no idea about Economics 101. We're going to talk a little bit about this because they still push this out and they act like it's only people with $100 million a year that are going to get hit by this. Do you realize that the income tax, literally every tax that was ever created was only supposed to be for the rich?

Now, how well did that work out for you last time you paid taxes? As we move, our partners that help bring you free radio, new partners to the show, Burn a Gun. It's a non-firearm, firearm. I'm always going to tell you to carry. I am never going to tell you not to carry.

And I'm never, ever going to tell you to be irresponsible about your self-defense. That said, I think you should have some diverse options at the ready because you're not able to carry your firearm everywhere that you need to go. And I would love to have the luxury of being able to not go into gun-free zones. But by the nature of what I do to feed my family and to go out and help get people registered to vote and to do the work of people who want to complain about it, I have to go into gun-free zones sometimes. I don't like being left defenseless, particularly with the crime rate.

So, this is where Burn a Gun comes in. I have a lot of friends who work in D.C., Chicago, New York, and they've gone out and gotten their most popular model, the Burna SD. It shoots out chemical irritant projectiles, five-round capacity compared to stun guns that are restricted to just one or two shots as well. And the Burna SD, it's their best-selling defense option. And it's a non-firearm, firearm.

It doesn't care about gun-free zones. Legal in all 50 states, requires no background checks or permits. And it can be shipped right to your door.

The person who should be applauded is the president who did the most selfless thing that anybody's done since George Washington. And that's a great job.

And so anybody, all the machinations that got us there, none of that's going to be remembered. And it shouldn't be. What should be remembered is the selfless act of someone who, you know, it's very hard to let go of power.

So, George Clooney was at the Venice Film Festival, where his. I actually, at first, I liked the premise of it, even though I can't stand him. I like Brad Pitt. But it was called Wolves. you know, yes, it is grammatically incorrect.

That's true. But keep in mind. the Harvey Keitel, who's Iconic character, the wolf from pulp fiction. You know, he takes care of stuff. He's the wolf.

That's what it, you know. Basically, it was was apparently imagined after. It's getting panned. But as I was sitting there listening to him speak in this, My first thought was. I don't, wow, like that's you're a bad actor because I don't even believe that you believe that.

Number one, and number two, your wife has too many extensions on her head. When she was walking down the red carpet, it was like a Wookiee was like a backpack on her head. There was so much damn hair. Thin it out a little bit. Nobody needs that.

I just, ladies, we can tell when your eyelashes are fake and when your extensions are fake. As well as they may be woven in, we can tell.

Last year, our government spent $150 billion to take care of our illegal immigration problem. With inflation, that number is much worse. Has that number gone up in 2024? Check out the Watchdog on Wall Street podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you get your podcast. Any population, you'll have very small subsets of folks that don't follow the rules, and we hold those folks accountable.

We actually know historically it's always true that we have lower levels of crime around migrants than we do among our general population.

So, that is there's a risk of misperception.

Some of this population is more dangerous, causing more trouble. That's just factually not true, but we are aware of it. We have overt and covert operations going every day to intervene. And where we know there are risks, we're going to be aggressive about making arrests, about pressing charges, and if needing deporting folks. But I think the much bigger risk is that you'll have a perception that all of the newcomers in the city are dangerous, and nothing could be farther from the truth.

Like people on the left trying to dismiss the very real danger that has been posed by people who enter the country illegally and have been. uh run like running mad And like for the story that we had just last week, several apartment buildings taken over by. Uh people coming in from a Venezuelan gang. and taking over these these apartment buildings in Aurora, which is a suburb of Denver. Welcome back to the program.

Dana Lash with you. We're at the top of the second hour now. And you can listen. Obviously, you're listening. We're also on channel 347.

And DirecTV can find us on Rumble, where the discussion happens. And You can also find us over at X2 as well. You know The language is so, the language frustrates me. This whole saying migrants and all of this. I made note for some of the folks who helped put together videos for our social team.

Because on Facebook there'll be a post that goes up and it will say, you know, migrant, whatever. And I've made note, you know, back channel. I'm like, I don't talk like this. I say the actual legal term, which is a legal alien or legal immigrant, that's an actual legitimate legal term. But do you know that if I put that up on Facebook I get a strike?

If it's in any of my videos on Facebook, I get a strike.

So when you see that up there, We can't they will literally like hide it. or they'll take it down or they will threaten to suspend my account. It is crazy. It is crazy. crazy.

The language police on this. But it's more than language, which goes to show you that it never just stops with language. They want to write. Yeah. rewrite the actual perception.

I mean, you have a real situation with crime here. People coming in illegally into the country. You have no idea where they're coming from. You have no idea what kind of record they have. The sad thing is, is that the communities that are most affected are the very communities.

The left always pays this lip service to and pretends to care about. Minority communities or Hispanic communities. It's, I mean, it's. I it it's it is At some point, ma maybe some in the media will catch on to this. But this law and order issue, so 75%.

Let me pull this up because we're going to come back to the Colorado thing. Just case in point. Police in New York and Manhattan are estimating that up to seventy five percent of crimes in Manhattan are committed by illegal immigrants. And I mean, we've seen this as New York Post. They're saying that the flood of uh illegal immigrants into the justice system.

Set quote 75% arrest in Midtown. It's been described as pathetic, and the sanctuary city laws that they have there make it impossible for police to actually do anything about the crime. They talked about, uh, for instance, Uh They start from people who do petty crimes to people who actually are involved in violent crimes. Jefferson Malonado, 31-year-old illegal immigrant from Ecuador, was arrested in New York City five times alone since arriving earlier this year. He's stolen from a number of different places.

And when he was asked, why are you stealing clothes and all this stuff? He's like, oh, because I wanted to change. I mean, he's a young dude. This guy's like 31 years old, comes in illegally. and they finally brought him in for arraignment.

And they said that the criminal justice system in New York the amount of people coming in illegally. And that When they are detained and they're brought in, the number of these illegal aliens for these arraignments, they said it's at a higher rate than public officials have acknowledged. They say that police say it's as many as seventy five percent of the people that they've been arresting for assault, robbery, domestic violence are people who are in the country illegally. They said in parts of Queens, the figure is over sixty percent. On any given day per the post.

The Manhattan Criminal Court dockets are packed. with quote unquote asylum seekers. which that's not a real thing, who've run afoul of the law. That's a that's um Asylum seeker, they're not seeking asylum. They're not, they just came here illegally, and they're just using, they're just saying that they are.

And of course, the sanctuary city laws in New York: cops cannot work with ice. that makes it incredibly difficult. And if they, here's the thing: if they work with ICE, I was talking to a friend whose husband was in the force in Manhattan. and they've since uh moved. They're actually they're outside of Austin.

And they've moved since then. And they were saying that they're one of the people who left New York. They didn't go to Florida, though, they came to Texas. And he was saying that you can actually uh be suspended if you are found You know, collaborating or cooperating or working with ICE when you're not supposed to in Manhattan. It is the craziest thing.

And so they can't do this where they believe that suspects are in the country illegally. They're not allowed to do this. NYPD says they're barred even from tracking. the immigration status. of offenders.

So if even if it's a repeat offender, it doesn't matter. They can't, they're not even allowed to. to track the status of these people. That's a major. That's an issue of gathering data for crime.

That's a major issue, and they're blocked from doing it. This is Audio Soundbite 29. This cop told a citizen who was reporting a crime committed by someone who entered illegally. Listen to what the cop says here. Audio send by 29.

We'll grab his information and see what we can do, but can you please collect the information? He said that he's already illegal. He already said that he went to...

Okay, well, it was back of the letter. First off, we're a sanctuary city. Even if he is legal, here we cannot call ICE. But you still have to report that, right? No, we don't.

Because it's a Sanctuary City. We do not report illegal undoing.

So you're going to let a person who went to prison, he committed a crime in America, who's illegal right now, you're going to let him go free right now to this elevator. That's exactly what I'm saying, because we're a sanctuary city. I've arrested a double homicide suspect in this city before and let him walk out the door because we're a sanctuary city. We're not going to call ICE to come pick him up and deport him. He came to pick up $320,000 from your him or my grandmother and grandfather.

And he's walking away freely right now, right? That's what I'm understanding right now. I understand that, but you're asking me to call ICE. I'm not asking to call Ice, we're just asking. No, I'm seriously I'm just trying to repeat offend when he's already illegal.

He said, I'm in uh Chinatown in New York, debate what you're doing. That's amazing. You know, the citizen who himself is a legal immigrant is reporting a crime, and the cop is. Brushing off the concerns of the Legal. citizen, the citizen who came here and legally immigrated to the US of A.

brushing away their that citizen's crime that citizens concerns No, I mean, he's like, yeah, we got to let this guy walk out of the door. We're Sanctuary City, and the guy was a double homicide suspect. That's that's crazy. Who? This is taxation without representation.

You're paying taxes for protection that you're being denied. And people who do not pay taxes are are being protected. That's we went to war for less. I'm just pointing this out. We we had conflict for less than this.

How is that a return on the investment of your tax dollars? I don't know why we pay taxes. I don't know why people in New York pay taxes. This is this is It it it's Exactly that. Can you imagine?

You come to the United States for a better way of life. and then you see people trying to bring the bad way of life. to your new country. And the police are like, Well, we can't do anything because, you know We can't. Can't do anything.

I the sanctuary city laws. They make it to where we can't stop these people. And it doesn't help to c touch back on Colorado when you have the Lawmakers who are just rolling their eyes and dismissing these very serious Issues. Like Jared. Shared polis in a Colorado.

He's gaslighting he was spending the weekend gaslighting on this the Venezuelan takeover the gang takeover of these apartment buildings in Aurora They're like, oh, well I You know, it's uh they they wouldn't acknowledge it was an organized crime effort. And on Wednesday, Polis's office flat out denied that it happened. They actually denied that it happened. Even though there's video of it and numerous reports from people who live there. He dismissed it.

calling it quote imagination. You have video footage? You have police reports. You even have the mayor of the city of Aurora, Colorado. who says that it's happening.

Your Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jarinski, who told the New York Post that the gang's takeovers are tied to his policies because, you know, Sanctuary City.

So, Polis, as a way to hit out at the council woman, said quote It is a feature of Danielle Jarinski's imagination. End quote.

So the Colorado governor, Democrat governor, The video of the actual Venezuelan gangs. Numerous video. Clips, by the way, numerous different Video taken. The reports of residence of several apartment complexes, the police who responded and couldn't do anything. They were all told that they were nothing more than this councilwoman's imagination.

And They added, well, it's illegal to take over buildings in Colorado, like a snarky response. from the governor's office. That is insane. Fox Denver had footage. I mean, these are media outlets.

And don't think because I said Fox Denver that it's like a conservative Fox network. It's owned by the Fox Corporation, but it's not Fox News. And they're not always conservative in every local town. in every town. They they had video footage.

Uh numerous media outlets had different video had different footage. And it shows all bun like one of them. The one that I'm looking at that the New York Post had had three guys carrying handguns. Another guy had a rifle, and they went into one apartment complex. They broke into the unit.

And the mayor, Mike Kaufman, was saying that there are several buildings that have been taken over by these gangs. And he said that the buildings were used as taxpayer-funded. housing for illegal immigrants, and that's how the gangs got a foothold. And so they started going door to door and taking over this stuff. robbing people, all of this.

But the governor's like, no, that's not happening. It's part of Danielle Jorinsky, the councilwoman in Aurora, who talked about it. That's her imagination. Imagine Living in that area, and you're a citizen, and you're worried about Venezuelan gangs that have been invited. By your governor to come in, and now they're taking over apartment complexes, would you feel protected?

Why do people keep voting for these people? Why do they vote for Democrat? I don't understand this whole point. I get if you think, you know, voting Republican is square or whatever. I don't care whatever stupid petty reason there is.

Why would you vote for this? Because that's what the consent of the vote does. Is it legitimizes this sort of administration. We have more on the way. Imagine if you had a GPS for your body's engine in your hands.

Okay here, let's see. We've been discussing Everything froze.

So, we've been discussing this whole situation with the Sanctuary City stuff. We're going to come back to that. This stranded NASA astronauts have contacted Houston to report strange noises.

Okay, so. I've been reading this story. We talked about and following this story. We've discussed these astronauts that have been stuck on ISS for a significant amount of time and they have no idea how they're going to get down. They were supposed to come down on that Boeing starliner and that's not happening.

So now Elon Musk, BaseX, is partnering with them. And they apparently had some issues aboard the ISS. And so they said it had to do with. uh something i they were trying to figure out how to do something was not performing correctly on the station and they said it sounded like a sonar ping and they were trying to figure out what it was uh but that was one of the latest things it's turning into a horror film like they're hearing these weird noises and all of this other stuff these stranded astronauts up there they are slated to not come back until february of next year It was supposed to be an eight-day trip. And they've been up there for months.

Yeah. Or that there's a series, Newmey Repaces, in it. It's a really good series. I can't remember what it's called, but it's a space series. It's very similar to this.

Sky News says, mobile phone usage does not increase brain cancer risk. This is new research. New research into brain cancer from use of mobile phone. They're saying, no, there's not. There's 63 studies now, and there's no link between the usage and this.

So is the vaccine. I mean, I'm not saying it's a shot, but you know. Just saying it might be. Boar's head deli meat. Do you eat bors have deli meat?

I don't eat processed meat. There's a lot of processed meat. This is really gross. Boars had deli meat. Apparently, they have listeria fears.

There's been warnings issued. About the boar's head meat products, mold, roaches, and blood have been found in their deli meat. And it's this plant linked to a deadly listeria outbreak. Seattle-based food safety attorney says that the disease has an incubation period of two months, et cetera, et cetera. Boar's head began recalling meats back in July.

It expanded the list again in early August.

Now, the Virginia plant, they did apparently a survey. It is crawling with bugs and mould and mildew. I am gonna be sick on air because oh No, Miz, mix your mouth. feel weird. It's no, it's not good.

So maybe don't eat it. California lawmakers are approving legislation to ban deepfakes and regulate AI.

Well, government wants to control it, so it's not so much about protecting workers. We have a lot more on the way. Stick with us. Folks over at Patriot Mobile, the only Christian conservative, cell phone service. That is out there.

We invited both President Trump and the Biden-Harris administration, and we didn't hear back from the White House. We were happy to welcome President Trump to lay reefs with all three of our families and our wounded, some of our wounded from that day. And when he came to Section 60, It was at our request to spend time with our loved ones. There was not a press presence there. We privately took pictures among ourselves.

And it was um you know, more celebratory. Feeling for that day because you know, we want to celebrate our loved ones, and it's very hard to find ways to do that. At a cemetery, but they were very respectful. We didn't see any altercation. And really, we just want our loved ones to be honored and remembered in a positive way.

That is Chrissy Shamblin, who is the mother of uh Nicole Gee, who was one of the thirteen killed. At the Abbey Gate at the airport, there was formerly known as the Ahmed Karzai International Airport, the Kabul Airport, and was one of the families that was there. At the observance there in Arlington of the deaths of those thirteen soldiers. Of that withdrawal, and they had invited the president. She was explaining what happened.

I just Welcome back, Dana Lash with you, bottom of this second hour. It is shameful to me that These families are being attacked. They're being indirectly attacked. They asked. the president to go and be at this observance.

They did not ask. Biden or Harris or anyone else. They had only asked the former President Trump and They had they they wanted him to be there. And I think it made the left angry because you had the optic of Harris doing heaven knows what. And Biden was on the beach when this happened.

And then it showed Trump laying the wreath at the memorial. And you have all of these lefties, including, you know, some military, you know, the the medal winning, pencil pushing You know, military faction, Big War Inc., that's on the left. That have come out and have said, oh, he shouldn't have politicized this. He didn't politicize this. He was asked by these families.

have the balls at least to to to to criticize the families. If that's what you're because that's really what they're doing. But they can't criticize the families because then it will look as though. They're attacking Gold Star families, so they are purposefully waiting in to make it they're attacking Trump on it so that Trump will respond and then they can invalidate the whole thing by saying, Well, you know, look. This is I mean, this administration killed them.

Biden's Indecision killed them. Let's not mince words. I mean, they they also apparently are just blowing over the fact that It was their administration that released the terrorists, who killed them? The Free Beacon has the piece of how the Biden administration Had already confirmed, and others already confirmed that the suicide bomber there, who is a known terrorist, by the way. was a known terrorist.

Had been freed from prison during the withdrawal. There's a House Foreign Affairs Committee. They said in a statement, the DOD report revealed that the suicide bomber who detonated the explosive belt at Abbey Gate and killed 13 U.S. service members injured 45 more. His name Abdul Rahman al-Langari.

an ISIS-K terrorist who was freed from Bagram prison. by the Taliban during the US withdrawal, during the chaotic withdrawal. Troops had left Bagram Airfield weeks before the Abbey Gate bombing. And this guy was was imprisoned there. And when Taliban came and took it over, because remember, those, remember how the story went?

Our soldiers left like. They were they were called out, pulled out like in the middle of the night. And they were, and remember the story on this: Afghan troops had no idea what was going on. None. They had no clue.

They were being trained by service members, and they had no idea. They just left. They left Bagram. The largest airfield there in Afghanistan. They didn't even notify.

The Afghan commander. The head Of all of Afghanistan's troops there, that were partnering with our soldiers, He wasn't even notified. That was in the DOD report. Remember. And they Terrorist that went out and carried this this Murder.

had been imprisoned there. And he was freed when the Taliban rolled through.

Sounded like there was a deal made with the Taliban. that never really got reported on or made public. about all of this. And remember, Biden said, oh, the withdrawal was going to be orderly and calm. No one's gonna there's Taliban's not gonna take over the country except In the weeks leading up, remember, The Taliban was rolling through village after village.

and they were communicating via WhatsApp. And they were telling these villages, we're rolling through. There were villages who surrendered. as the Taliban rolled in. Because they knew the Taliban were coming, because the Taliban was telegraphing all of this through literally WhatsApp.

You're telling me that our Intel officials, that our metal-wearing, our pin-wearing pencil pushers? who formed more ink? on the left side of things that they had no idea that this was happening. They were using WhatsApp, a damn app. Everyone else in Afghanistan knew it, apparently, except for the Biden administration.

No, they knew it. They just didn't care. I think that they made a deal with the Taliban to just allow them to take over again. I really do believe that. Occam's razor.

Occam's razor. Remember Harris said that she was the last person in the room. offering Biden advice and helping to guide him on this. Remember, she claimed this. And of course, How could you forget when Biden was there?

If you want to talk about who's. response was more dignified. Don't forget, remember the ABC News interview? with the Gold Star Mothers. And they were talking about the transfer ceremony.

The mother said that it was total disrespect, and that Biden kept checking his watch. And he's photographed checking his watch. The mothers told this to ABC. They all went on record. They didn't hide their faces, nothing.

I mean, if you want to have a discussion about You know, what is or is not acceptable. They got mad because Trump posed with families at the cemetery and they took photos. And the left was livid. Do you know how many times Biden has posed with families at m at military cem uh cemeteries and there have been photos taken? No, that's not what about ism.

That's what Democrats say when their hypocrisy is pointed out. They go, oh, well, that's what about is it. No, that's called your hypocrisy. We're not going to change the language to suit you. That's your hypocrisy.

He was invited there by these families. And now the Bidens and the Democrats who killed their loved ones, they're livid.

Now Biden checked his watch. He was checking his watch. All of these gold star mothers, when they were talking to ABC, they said that they were livid over this, and they all mentioned it. All of them mentioned it. And When The families, the gold star I think it's so sad that these families have to go and defend their own decisions and their own method of honoring the loved ones that the Biden administration killed by going to the press and defending this.

They said they were the ones who requested and approved cameras. They said they were the ones who invited Trump, but the way that it's being reported, they act like Trump brought a whole fleet of cameras and showed up himself. They made this into a huge thing because Harris decided she wanted to. make an attack on Trump over it. And the reason that she d she gambled She thought, well, if I can just directly attack him for showing up at the cemetery.

And intimate that he brought the cameras and that it was all his thing, then I can invalidate these families. That's how much of a threat. These thirteen lost service members represent Tekamala Harris. I guess Harris and Biden weren't satisfied with killing the thirteen with their bad decisions at Abbey Gate alone, so they have to now go and try to kill the characters and reputations of their family members, too. I feel like that's a value.

No, I don't feel like that is a valid point. The administration, not content with killing the 13 service members, now seeks to kill the characters and reputations of the service members' families. Because they chose to invite the former president. Two. Observe.

the loss of their loved ones on the third year of their passing. Just shameful. That's shameful. And they've been, the way that they have been describing all of this. and attacking them in the press.

They're ignoring the family, or either they're calling the family a lie. I don't know what it is. Which is it? Do you remember when, um Trump Got into a very public argument with the one gold star father, Kazir Khan, when he was running in 2016, and how the media was all over it. Like, how dare you!

Criticize a gold star parent. How dare you? But now they don't care. That's the media's double standard.

Now they don't care. Here you have a bunch of gold star families. Trump didn't even have anything to do with the death of Khan's loved one. Biden and Harris were the ones who made the call that absolutely caused the death of these 13. But the media loved the Gold Star Father.

Khan, who took on Trump in 2016, but now they hate gold star families, apparently. I don't know. I mean, what am I supposed to do? That's what you get from this. They're suggesting that they're liars.

Or that that somehow they're grifters? If you read some of the headlines on them, And what they've said. I mean that they've just they It's shameful.

So they have a war with these Abbeygate Gold Star families. because these families proved to be such A uh threat to Harris Harris She when she tweeted about it, she said, quote, As Vice President, I've had the privilege of visiting Arlington National Cemetery several times. It's a solemn place, a place where we can come together to honor American heroes who've made the ultimate sacrifice in service of this nation. It's not a place for politics. Uh what?

How is it political? Just because Trump's there doesn't mean that it's political. You can't just make that claim. Good grief. I mean they have just It's des it's despicable.

It is despicable. I don't know. I'm almost without words on this. I feel so bad for these families because now they have to defend this. The New York Times says Trump campaign uses statements from Gold Star families to attack Harris.

You know why this is such a Absolute garbage headline from the New York Times. Because Trump had nothing to do with it. It was the families that were responding to Kamala Harris themselves directly without Trump. Trump had nothing to do with it. They were defending because they felt attacked.

By this administration and by their surrogates, and they felt the need to defend. their chosen way. to observe the loss of their loved ones three years after their deaths. And the New York Times ran a story claiming that the Trump campaign used statements from like he went out and solicited the statements from Gold Star families to attack Harris when it was the families who were literally merely responding to her. It is an outright lie.

That's shameful. I mean, the families chose to make videos where they were defending how they wanted to honor their loved ones. But it's again It is An inconvenient truth for the Biden-Harris administration. because they were responsible for killing them in the first place. We have audio of Biden talking about this.

Where's this at? This is audio. Uh When he was discussing, here it is, audio sumbite 13. Listen to this. This is from over the weekend.

Mr. President, President Trump's behavior at Arlington Cemetery with the visit to the fallen soldiers. I don't want anybody to make anywhere I think. Anything on the ISIS operation, Mr. President?

He says, I don't want to answer that, and I might tell you what I think. Like, that's supposed to be some kind of threat. You're the reason they're in Arlington Cemetery, Joe Biden. You are the reason, you and Kamala Harris, because she was the last person in the room advising you. You're the reason they're in Arlington Cemetery National Cemetery in the first place.

You are the reason they're underground there.

So you don't get to act like a tough guy. You don't get to act like that. You're nothing more than white trash who only raised drug-addicted kids when he's not screwing his wife's nanny. All right, we gotta move. I'm done.

Can we just stop pretending that there's any like basis of courtesy here? Can we? Because I'll feel a lot more at home when we can do that. I'm not going to sit here and pretend that we're going to engage in this like false system of courtesy and mercy and all of this other stuff when, you know, the reason he, I mean, that enrages me to talk to the press like that when you're the reason that they're dead in the first place. Shame on you.

Disgusting. Moving as we move our partners that help bring you free radio, new partners to the show, burn a gun. It's a non-firearm, firearm. I'm always going to tell you to carry. I am never going to tell you not to carry.

And I'm never, ever going to tell you to be irresponsible about your self-defense. That said, I think you should have some diverse options at the ready because, you know, you're not able to carry your firearm everywhere that you need to go. And I would love to have the luxury of being able to not go into gun-free zones. But by the nature of what I do to feed my family and to go out and help get people registered to vote and to do the work of people who want to complain about it, I have to go into gun-free zones sometimes. I don't like being left defenseless, particularly with the crime rate.

So this is where Burn a Gun comes in. I have a lot of friends who work in D.C., Chicago, New York, and they've gone out and gotten their. Most popular model, the Burna SD. It shoots out chemical irritant projectiles, five-round capacity compared to stun guns that are restricted to just one or two shots as well. And the Burna SD, it's their best-selling defense option.

And it's a non-firearm firearm. It doesn't care about gun-free zones. Legal in all 50 states, requires no background checks or permits. And it can be shipped right to your door.

So it's super accessible. Learn more about it, BYRNA. Visit burna.com/slash dana for 10% off your purchase. B-Y-R-NA, Burna Gun, Burna.com/slash Dana for 10% off. It's his life mission to make bad decisions.

Wait. Yeah. It's time for Florida Man. All right, I have immediately have to go to this one, which is insane and amazing. A lot of people have different ways to get customer attention when they're selling stuff out and about, right?

So, you know, like Girl Scout cookies, they have their little table and they're all up in their Girl Scout uniforms. And you have the Salvation Army bell ringers when they're raising money for their amazing programs that they do. They've got the kettles and they're ringing the bells. This guy decided to go way above that, according to local 10 here in Florida, or they're in Florida, we're in Texas, a 46-year-old man's approach. at a Florida Keys strip mall to sell meth got him in trouble.

Um He was running around with with a machete. Oh no, sorry, throwing a beer bottle, telling people he had a knife. One one report said he had a knife. Running around after shoppers, throwing beer bottles while forcing trying to force them to buy meth at a strip mall, say deputies. That's not like bell ringing.

Monroe County Sheriff's Office, they said deputies were sent to the Tavernier Town Center. and the guy, Stephen Bennett, was yelling at shoppers, throwing bottles at them, threatening one with a knife, trying to sell meth. He said no one, the officers say no one was seriously hurt. Deputies found 15 grams of meth on Bennett. They, oh, and they did find the machete.

So he was saying knife, but it was a machete, according to the police report. That's a knife. Yeah, it's a big knife. Scale pipes, all kinds of stuff. They got him on charges of meth trafficking, disorderly conduct, battery and possession of drug paraphernalia.

He is in Key West Jail facility on a $125,000 bond. Yeah, that's uh not how you sell stuff.

So in Florida, a man shot and killed a bear to protect his puppy, which I totally won't do, in Fort McCoy, Marion County, and he is not going to face charges.

Now, Florida made it, remember, it's the crack bear law. If a bear is coming to kill you and kill you, then you can shoot and kill the bear and you're not going to go to jail because normally they would try to take you to jail for it. This guy's dog, this bear was going to kill his dog. And now, as long as you notify Florida Wildlife Conservation within 24 hours, you can't, they're not going to charge you if you're defending yourself, your life, and the life of your loved ones.

So this guy. Good story for this. Thanks to Santa signing that law. Stick with us. Our friends over at Black Rifle Coffee.

I know, we all know this. I remember a time when Republicans talked about things like freedom, they meant it. They would never turn their back on our allies. But that's not these guys. Trump and Vance, when they talk about freedom, means government should have the freedom to invade every corner of our life.

They talk about small government, small enough to be in your bedroom, small enough to be in your exam room, small enough to be in your library, telling you the things that you should make decisions about. Where does this fuck get off? I mean, what about the government that's small enough to go and call a hotline and snitch on your neighbors because they decided to have Thanksgiving with their families and all get together under one roof? What about that? I mean, good night, that's Tim Walls.

who over the weekend was speaking. at one of the campaign events that he and Kamala Harris had undertaken. And I don't, nobody wants to be in anybody's bedroom. But here's the thing: you don't believe in privacy or small government. This is the guy who not only expects you to be in the bedroom, he expects you to applaud and throw money at the people engaging in the act.

He does. And he also wants to get in involved in your bedroom and uh as well as Get involved in your kids' lives and what's going on in your, you know, with your kids' private issues. Good heavens. Why does he keep doing this? And people just keep applauding like seals.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. We are at the top of this third hour today. And I've got I'm just I'm looking at we have Ah, what, ten sound bites? From their their rally?

Let's just do that. Let's do audio soundbite 4. I don't get this. Yeah. Somebody Somebody said, what's next?

Child labor? Hell yeah, it's in there. That's what they've got in there. You see states doing that, putting our children at risk. That's what they'll do.

Huh. What? Yeah, so now they're gonna put you back in chains. They're gonna Uh ye I m I remember the days when they were just saying that Uh Republicans were going to throw all the old people off cliffs. Remember that?

That sounds sounds like something they'd accuse you of, Cain, you know, 'cause you You say old people aren't innocent. Good lord, I hate when you do that. Not all old people. Old people aren't innocent. I heard what you just said there.

I heard it. You all heard it. You heard it. What is what does he mean he wants forced child labor? Where does that even come from?

This is like some waiting for lefty nonsense. Where what is the what is the irony is, is that this leftist green agenda literally requires child labor for all of the cobalt to be mined? for their batteries. Just a quick flashback: ABC of all places actually did an expose on this back in 2019 where they looked at the people's Democratic Republic of Congo and they discovered that it's like the largest cobalt mine, that something over what 80% of it was mined by hand, and of that 80% that was mined by hand, something like 70% of that was carried out by children. And it was one of the largest workforces, largest child labor workforces that exist.

And that's the mine that Hunter Biden. through Perkins Kooey, which was the Biden family little third party business, they helped the Chinese acquire the mineral rights to that mine. CEFC and Perkins Kooey, that probably explains the big blood diamond that he was given. Remember that one? Mm-hmm.

So we have this, then we also This was four. Go ahead and play five for me. He's the pocket. Hot Pocket. I can remember, and this was one, Republicans came up to me in one of my campaigns and they said, Tim is in the pocket of organized labor.

I said, that's a damn lie. I am the pocket. I am the pocket. What does that mean? Wait, let's break this down, 'cause he's huh.

So, by the way, it's Tim Walls again, everybody. And if I didn't greet you, welcome back. Dana Lash, top of the third hour. Tim Wall says that he's not in the pocket of organized labor. He is the pocket.

So organized labor is in his pocket? Is that what he just said? Can we pl I'm sorry, Juan, we hit it again. I we just want to make sure. Let's just make sure.

I can remember, and this was one, Republicans came up to me in one of my campaigns and they said, Tim is in the pocket of organized labor. I said, that's a damn lie. I am the pocket. I am the pocket. Fall pocket.

So he says that organized labor is. In his pocket. I'm not in the pocket where I am the pocket. Wait, what? De Why do you have to be a pocket?

This is what happens when people try to do little turny turns of phrases and they try to be cutie about it. That just sounds bad. He sounds like, you know what? He's again the drunk guy at the family barbecue. He's the guy who gets drunk, he gets all poo face, and he runs around.

And he's talking big and being a loudmouth. That's him. That's him. So he's the pock doesn't it sound like what he said he's the organized labor's in his pocket, I guess, hot pocket? That makes sense.

Like they try to act like they're all hot on the outside, but it's still cold, frozen meat on the inside. Right.

So full of Lenten receipts. That's what Kate said. Her hair's full of secrets, yeah, well he's full of linton receipts. I I don't know. They are trying so hard.

To I don't I I'm trying to understand these these two. He, Audio Soundbite 1. Here he's trying to act like he's the everyman, Tim Walls. Listen to this. This is so dumb.

I saw last week The Wall Street Journal was trying to say, because they did a story, that apparently I am the poorest person to ever run for vice president.

So then Remember when he hated JD Vance from But then they escaping poverty. Yeah. Remember? Yeah, just like a couple weeks ago, they hated J.D. Vance because J.D.

Vance grew up like legit poor and then was able to go to Yale and worked his own way and didn't have the government, you know, didn't wasn't on the teeth of the government. They hated that, but now all of a sudden wait, so is it po is poverty chic cool again?

Okay, Steve's like, you should have let it go.

Okay, go ahead and let the rest of it go. I. There's apparently there's m there's a couple more nuggets in there.

So then. But then they did another story that said. Oh, he's actually richer than his statement says because he has, and I quote like this is an evil thing, a defined benefit pension plan. That is my wish for every American to have a defined benefit pension plan. Yeah, except you want to tax the hell out of it.

By the way, remember when they went after, and I'm not a Marco Rubio stan. But do you remember when they went after Democrats went after Marco Rubio back in 2016? And they said that he had a yacht. Please, Juan, please find the picture of Marco Rubio's boat. Because someone got a someone found a video of that exact boat.

And they put it with the Miami Vice music. And it was one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life. It's like the exact kind of stuff that the internet was created for. And whenever I'm having a bad day, I just legit think of that video and I just start dying laughing. It was, it's one of the funniest things because we kept bringing these headlines: oh my gosh, Marco Rubio's got this yacht.

I'm like, well, geez. You know what kind of yacht is it? The left are real freaking out about it. I mean, is this like the Kourou? Is this like what Bezos has?

That's before Bezos. Yeah, I mean it has to be a huge yacht, right? I'm thinking you know, like I w I don't think I can say that. I was thinking of prestige worldwide from step brothers is what I was thinking of. And so they're like, oh man, he's got a yacht.

They called it a yacht. I kid you not. Democrats were saying it was a yacht. And they said he lived in a man this is that was that's his This is his wait, this way. That's his yacht.

That's his yacht. That was the Rubio yacht. That's literally it. It's a dinghy. It's that's a yacht.

It says yacht. It says center console, power boat, two outboard motors. You might be able to take one or two friends fishing.

Well, no, you can you can fit a couple of people on that. You can probably get four people on that boat. That little power boat, you know. That's about what you tool around the exumas with. The other two ain't fishing.

Well, yeah, no. I mean, you, you know, it's just a little boat. You know, it's not a yacht. Yeah, that's not a yacht. But that's what they were saying.

That and then he they found that he lived in like a two-story ranch on a cul-de-sac. They were saying that he had a mansion and a yacht. I have a mansion and a yacht. And it was a power boat and like an average everyday person's home. On a cul-de-sac.

Oh, my my favorite thing, I think I actually I think it was taken offline. I gotta find it. I think it's a very good idea. I can't remember if it was New York Times or if it was a New Yorker, and they were trying to say, and he lives, you know, like on a concrete, he lives on a circular drive. It's a cul-de-sac.

They literally tried to act like this dude's cul-de-sac. What's a circular drive? Fancy. Is 2,000 square feet or larger now? That's a mansion.

That's a mansion. I'm sorry, is your home over 1600 square feet, you rich mansion dweller? Where's your yacht? Where's your yacht? Well, hell, I went a yacht like that.

I was on a yacht then officially over Over the summer. I would call my boat that size a yacht, ironically. I would too. I would be, I would call it yachty. Yeah.

Yacht rock. Yeah. That's I would call it I would call it Yadi Molina after my former favorite Cardinal player. But Y A C H T I E I don't call it that. But this is the stuff that the left does.

And then you get Tim Walt. They're really excited that they got a guy who isn't, they purposely found. A mess. They went they wanted to go out and find like They're like, we need someone who is not rich. And they're looking at each other like, oh my gosh, we're all rich.

What are we going to do? We need someone who is less rich than us. I mean, he's still rich.

Someone who is less rich. Who is less this guy? This Yeah. This big mouth up there in Minnesota, let's get him. My goodness But they hate, they don't like coming out of poverty.

They don't like this escaping poverty stories, especially. if it was done without government, because then that negates their whole purpose. They want poor people to believe that you were born in poverty, you'll never gonna escape it unless the government extricates you from that status. They don't want you to believe that you can do it yourself. And that's why they push things like equity.

Because if you believe that you have the power to do it yourself, then why the hell do you need them? That's the whole purpose of it. Why do you need big government if you can do it yourself? Why do you need them? And so they've They've got to battle that messaging.

So it's weird. It's like watching. The right and the left are both using populism. And I find it kind of annoying. I like populism in small amounts.

Believe, I was one of the founders of the modern-day tea party. I get it. But Even then, you know, populism has its limits in terms of as a as a tactician. You know, you can't just go out there and, you know, say red meat platform. I mean, at some point, you got to do something, right?

You got to have policies that mean something. Which brings me to another point.

Someone was telling, actually, I think it was somebody, my friend over at the Babylon B, and I disagreed with him. They were saying, oh, well, conservatives didn't do a whole heck of a lot, and that's why you have these populists coming over. And I'm like, wait a minute, these are two different things. They're not interchangeable terms. And secondly, there are more.

I tweeted about this over the week and talking about these two different ideological belief sets because you can't really use it interchangeably. And we'll talk about this more in the days to come. But I mean, it just can't use it interchangeably. And I had said that many, if not most, conservatives. are Republicans, but not all Republicans are conservatives.

Conservatives have never had majority power ever within the Republican Party.

So you can't blame conservatives for not doing something because there's never been enough of them. in the first place. And now, all of the news you would probably miss, it's time for Dana's Quick Five.

I love this phrase, errant ostrich. It brought traffic to a halt in of all places South Dakota after one they're huge. after one of them escaped from a trailer. They're huge. And is it Can I be honest, my first thought was, how big are them drummies?

Some drummies like how big them Tindies? Ostrich brought traffic to a halt in Sioux Falls. Motorists tried to lure it away. It was like in the middle of a multi-lane road. It was seven feet tall.

And they had police, animal officials, motorists. Everyone very carefully tried to corral this bird. And people were coaxing it off of the road. They were trying to give it a little nudge, offer it some treats. Wasn't, you know, they suffered no injuries.

It was fine, and they were able to get it back. But it's just funny watching all these people. There's video of it. They're trying to just like, they're scared of it, but they're trying to get it. get it out of the road so it doesn't get doesn't get killed it's so it's funny though This story, US Election Software.

It is always going to be a security threat. This is why we need paper ballots. Like, how is it that other Some states can get all their stuff counted and situated.

Some countries out all paper, they get all their stuff counted and situated. Uh but apparently There's a cybersecurity firm that has troubling security bugs, like in New Hampshire, for instance. And they're saying that, you know, because of the way that this is operated in New Hampshire, their database, et cetera, a small, even a tiny glitch on election day could, I mean, it could cause a lot of problems, the least of which could be conspiracy related.

So they just, you got to do a better job. Of course, who runs it there? You got to look at these states and who is in charge of making these decisions. And I guarantee you it's not Republicans that are in charge of that. How much would that just say?

Also, this, a couple of others there. I'm going to make sure I get all of the, oh, I wanted to touch on this one because I didn't get to this. This is the TikTokers from last. I was going to have this last hour. The Chase Bank glitch.

I don't know if you guys have seen that. Seeing this trending tick tockers were trying to exploit a what they called a chase bank glinch glitch.

Sorry, after, but there was a huge cost to this. It was a new trend on TikTok. It looks like check fraud. Uh, they said that. It is.

It is. People deposit fake checks for large sums of money, and then it would credit some of the sham deposits to their accounts before the check's cleared. That's not a glitch, that's fraud. Let's not redefine stuff. Stick with us.

We've got more to come. Subscribe to the Dana Show podcast because who says you can't make fun of people while staying informed on your own personal time? Subscribe on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcast. A lot of the English owned the coal mines. And what they did was, they'd really beat the hell out of the mostly Catholic population that was in the mines.

Not a joke. Not a joke. But there was a group called the Molly Maguires. And the Mala McGuires, if they find out the foreman who has taken advantage of an individual. And they literally kill them.

Not a joke, and they bring him the body up and put him on the doorstep of his family. Kind of crude. But I gotta admit. They accused my great-grandfather of being a Malaw where he wasn't. But we were so damn disappointed.

What? What? Okay, so if you guys don't know, this is like Americana folklore, the Molly Maguires, that's what he's talking about. He wants to be a Kennedy so bad. We were talking about this on break.

Welcome back. Daniel Lash with you, bottom of their third hour. The Molly McGuire's wore like this. Um Secret society. The You know, facts are up to interpretation, essentially.

And it was like a secret society and they were active like in parts of the UK and obviously Ireland and Pennsylvania. And they particularly amongst like those who worked in the mines, et cetera. And some of the activities that they were accused of doing may not have been all legal. But anyway. He was like, well, it turns out he wasn't a Molly Maguire, and that's a shame.

What? What is he talking about? He doesn't know either. He doesn't know either. He just desperately is trying to, he wants to, he's trying to fabricate some kind of.

you know, folklore or whatever for His family and himself. It's just weird. He does the weirdest stuff. Stop it, dude. Just weird.

It's weird. But That's what Biden's been doing. Did they have to this was after he had Two weeks of vacation. Yep. Fully rested.

Yeah, fully rested. He only did one campaign event. with Harris and then that was it.

Now they'll probably send him on vacation again. They had a photo of him that they put out when they were discussing the issue with the a Hamas nego negotiations or w stupid. No no negotiations with them sh uh first off, but that's what they were presenting it as. And the news of the terr the the uh American hostage at the hands of the terrorists. But he tells this story.

He was in Pittsburgh when he was talking about this. Just a weird. Weird, um, well, I don't know. I mean, George Clooney said he's like the George Washington of our time. He talked about a final Gaza hostage deal.

This was a quick six-second clip, but he did state this. Listen. Are you planning to present a final hostage deal to the uh both sides of this week? We're very close to that. I mean, unless it includes releasing everyone and then stopping the terrorism, then no.

That's the ceasefire. Stop being terrorists and stop holding hostages. That's the ceasefire. That's what that is. Yeah, that's that's That's all that needs to be.

This is what Netanyahu said, audio se yeah, audio semblance twenty-one. Hamas is continuing to steadfastly refuse all proposals. Even worse, at the exact same time, it murdered six of our hostages. Whoever murders hostages does not want a deal. For our part, we will not relent.

The government of Israel is committed, and I am personally committed, to continue.

So and why should they? I mean, did you see the newest thing that Hamas has been doing?

So the hostages that they've killed. They've been r they've been releasing video and then like these comic book style Um uh images of them. to taunt their families. The Funerals that took place on Sunday and Monday, Hamas said. that they were going to drip feed footage.

That they described as the final messages of the remaining five. And it's, I mean, it is, it's psychological terrorism. They're not interested in a deal. I can't believe we're almost a year out from this. Almost a year out from this.

They are not interested in a deal. You are not going to get any new hostages. You will not get any hostages back alive. They're not going to be they ha I mean, this this ends with the in complete obliteration of Hamas, and that's the only way. Anybody who says otherwise is not serious.

They want destruction and more loss of life in Gaza. the place that elected Hamas in the first place. That's the that's the only reason. Just it's just crazy. Just it's And these I mean, that's That is can you imagine you're you're having uh the funeral services and this terrorist group is drip feeding footage.

of your loved one's final moments to the press. And yet they are they have the audacity to act as though they're the underdogs in this. No. A couple of things. I want to change it up.

The FBI has charged a former top aide to Kathy Hochl and Cuomo. in your coma with being a Chinese agent. They raided this woman's house Uh it comes in New York. It's Linda's son and her husband, Chris Hu. They were taken into custody on Tuesday in Long Island.

They raided their mansion. She is accused of enriching herself and her family by acting as an undisclosed agent of the Chinese Communist Party, according to federal prosecutors. They had a sprawling indictment. They charged her with blocking representatives of the Taiwanese government from having access to any high-level New York state officers and changing messaging on issues that involved the CCP. They also claimed that she used the proceeds of her illegal work to.

To buy her million-dollar home in Long Island, a multi-million dollar condo in Hawaii, and a Ferrari. Uh so she's been living the high life. And they've laundered the proceeds. They're charged with money laundering, the proceeds of their illegal activities, conspiracy to commit bank fraud. uh misuse of identification.

Uh they appeared in court today. 683 page indictment. They said that they've received improper benefits. and were they were being paid off at the CCP.

So Another These are high-ranking Democrats that have Chinese spies working for them. Remember, You had Diane Feinstein, who had one as a driver. Eric Swalwell slept with one. Who was the other one? There's another Chinese operative.

Did she had Feinstein, that one, and then this one? Yeah. So, so far, that's what we know. Oh, yeah.

So they had Andrew Cuomo. Apparently she held posts in his in his administration. And it's Kathy Hochls as well. She was appointed the Deputy Chief of Staff for Hokul. They said she was in that role for about 15 months.

And then she moved to a new job at the Department of Labor, where she was the Deputy Commissioner for Strategic Business Development.

Now think about this, she's driving a Ferrari and she works in a government position. Does that make sense? I mean, at some point, you know, they got and they have multiple homes. Wait, how deep does this underground Chinese spy ring go with the Democrats? Because it was an accident that we found out about the Swalwell one.

It was completely by accident about the Dianne Feinstein one, too. And now this one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Uh it's a great question. Who knows? With spy balloons and land being bought up near military bases, who knows is going on. Who knows? They said that the job that she was in, New York Department of Labor, she Left that job.

She was there for apparently four months. She was the deputy commissioner. for strategic business development. Apparently. Hmm.

So How many Chinese businesses were approved during that time? We don't know those answers, Kane. You mean ask questions of Democrats and their appointed You know. I know. We're going to watch this story.

I'll make sure I put this in your rundown. I've got to share this one with you. It's kind of crazy, and I'm. Trying to figure out how to How to approach this one. Everybody knows the website OnlyFans.

I've never been there, but I just know that it exists because of the jokes.

So apparently some of these broads on OnlyFans They were accused. This is the most. The irony here. They're being accused of pretending to be trans women to make money on the platform. Hi everyone.

They apparently put a video up and it said two just two boys being silly with a trans flag on it. And then How do I say this? They had on boxer shorts and they gave themselves the fake appearance of a Male copulatory organ. And the trans trans Tifa got real mad. And they said that you are pretending to be trans to grift.

So wait a minute. The Dudes pretending to be women are mad because there are women pretending to be men. Mm-hmm.

So the dudes pretending to be w women to grift are mad that the women are grifting off of pretending to be men. They're pretending to be men who are pretending to be women, technically. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. But then guess what?

It's all pretend. It is all pretend. This is like getting so invested in a television show or a movie that the characters actually upset you. It's that bad, because it's all pretend. It's all pretend.

So, how can you get?

So, they're, I mean, they're like they're trying to get them canceled. You know, they said these. They're fake, and the trans community is up in arms. They're apparently being threatened with violence because that's what trans Tifa does. You know, it's funny, the way they found out was they were too.

Beautiful. For them to believe. That they were too ready for people to prove that they're dudes. That's right. Because they're not dudes, clearly, and they don't have any mounds on their necks.

Proves nobody's fooling anyone. Exactly. Yeah. I mean, and so the trans people got mad. Because they You're too pretty to pretend to be a dude.

Just let that Let that simmer for a minute. What is the world? I can't even believe this is the reality of news today. That's news. That's where we're at.

Now. I don't know if they're gonna get their accounts suspended, but They've the whole community has been up in arms. This has been like the big thing all weekend in their little community. How do you not They don't see it. Who are they to tell them that they can't?

What if they are women who There are women who want to pretend to be Men who are pretending to be women. Why can't they do that? I don't know why the left has to be. Why can't it work like that? No, no, no.

Hold up. Why doesn't it work that way? You can't just you don't get they don't get to be gatekeepers. You can't just be oh, I'm a man who wants to pretend to be a woman.

Okay, there are women who want to pretend to be men who are pretending to be women.

Okay. I'll take a turn in. Huh? I'm a woman pretending to be a man. It's pretending to be a woman who's actually a man.

We're in Tropic Thunder territory right now. This is where we're at. This is level Tropic Thunder. Sure. This, I can't get over the story.

This is so funny.

So, again. There are women pretending to be dudes who are pretending to be women. And that and that Trans Tifa are all mad about it. By the way, can you say training anymore? Is that a word that one can say?

Well, you just did, so I think so. No, I'm just curious because I just remember like in the 90s, they even said it. Like the people who would say that they were. That's true. But I think they do, like with midget, you can't say I have to say little people now, and it's like with that.

But what is the difference between trans and trans-e? Are you talking about mechanics? No, I just don't understand why the letters, like mere three letters, like makes it like or okay or okay. I don't, you know, this is all so damn stupid. People have so much time on their hands, they invent things to get offended about.

All the pretending, and I got to pretend that I cared about all this stuff. Yeah. Like I want to pretend about stuff too. Uh And and I w and I want to force people into making it real. Right?

Like, maybe we can get that yacht after all. You know what I'm saying? Like a real one, not Marco Rubio's little boat. Just saying. All right, we got more on the way.

I... Oh, one other thing before we go. You know how Tim Walls was saying? That he was that he wasn't in labor. What was he saying?

He's not in the labor union's pocket. He is the pocket.

And it reminded me, we're going to start calling him Mr. Pocket. If you've ever seen The Ballad of Buster Scruggs by the Cohen brothers, it is like a series of Western vignettes that are all tied together. It's one of the most brilliant, like Western-themed. It's not a series, it's a film.

It's hysterical and brilliant and really smartly done. But uh Tom Tom Wade is in it. And he plays this prospector, and he finds this. Parcel of land and there's gold on it, and he's trying to find this pocket of gold, and he keeps calling out Mr. Pocket.

And so he's out there talking to, anyway. Long story short, it made me think of that.

So I'm going to start calling Tim Wallace Mr. Pocket. Just you know, yeah, exactly. All right, we got Make some common sense of the crazy headlines with the Dana Show podcast. Your on the go guide for getting up to speed on today's most important stories.

I don't think you could tell us what the difference is between a flathead and a Phillips head screwdriver. You know what I'm saying? I don't think you can tell the difference between a man and a woman, so that's probably a bigger concern for the America, don't you think so?

Oh, yeah.

I mean, you know, you got the flat, obviously, and then the Phillips, which is like, I'm trying to figure out, it's like an asterisk. I'll just say it like that. It's the easiest way to describe it for the laymen. It's a cross, but it looks like an asterisk. Like Anyway, welcome back.

That was Big Gratch. I ju you can't make fun of other people when you can't even say what's a dude and what's a woman. Yeah. That's Like what's the What's the the the point? Good heavens!

I have So we were asking. Because we had this story. the women pretending to be dudes pretending to be women for clicks. They made the trans Tifa mafia, the dudes pretending to be women, big mad. Here's my question about that.

So you guys know what intersectionality is. That's if you have a bunch of grievance, if you have a grievance, or basically it's your way of saying that I have something I can be discriminated against. And the more that you have, like that's the greater the intersectionality. That's what it means.

So I would think that Bear with me. the women pretending to be dudes pretending to be women. That's an extra layer of pretend compared to just dudes pretending to be women.

So That's only two that's only one layer of pretend. Where women pretending to be dudes pretending to be women is two layers of pretend.

So that's an additional layer of intersectionality. Isn't that like a plus 25 intersectionality buff? It is. Why doesn't that work here? Make it work.

Apply it to the skill tree. Make it work. Why isn't that working? All right, go ahead. Today's stupidity.

Otherwise, I'm literally going to just talk over all of it. It'll be Kamala Harris one, just so you know. Kamala, this was right after the DNC. Nobody put this stuff out, but in context of what we've been seeing lately, I think this is important. Let's hear what she has to say.

He has lost his privileges and it should be taken down. And the bottom line is that you can't say that you have one rule for Facebook and you have a different rule for Twitter. The same rule has to apply, which is that there has to be a responsibility that is placed on these social media sites to understand their power. They are directly speaking to millions and millions of people without any level of oversight. Oh, man.

Yeah, okay. Yeah, I don't think so. Folks, that does it for us today. Find us YouTube, Facebook, like and subscribe, Substack, chapter and verse, back with you tomorrow.
