History, Hauntings, & Hunting: Dana on Columbus, Tim Fudd, and Kamala's Rough Week

It is an honor, of course, to be with you this week as we celebrate Indigenous Peoples' Day, as we speak truth. about our nation's history. Yeah. since nineteen thirty four. Every October, the United States has recognized the voyage of the European explorers.

who first landed on the shores of the Americas. But that is not the whole story. That has never been the whole story. Yeah. Those explorers.

ushered in a wave of devastation. for tribal nations. perpetrating violence. Stealing land. and spreading disease.

We must not shy away. from this shameful past. and we must shed light on it. And do everything we can to address the impact of the past. on native communities today.

I don't have enough coffee for this. I'm going to be, I got to be honest. This is so stupid. First off, This is this xenophobic jingoistic nonsense that you just heard from Kamala Harris. Originally, it was from 2021, but It's I mean, it's still the same message that they have today.

It's her same Message. And it's, you know, it's Christopher Columbus Day. It's the one day of the year where the left actually is honest about their hatred of immigrants. It's the one day of the year where the left is. They embrace their xenophobia.

And their jingoism. Oh my gosh, they're xenophobic bastards. That's exactly what they are. For real. Listen to them.

They're like those evil immigrants. They brought disease and nastiness and disease. I mean, germ theory didn't. you know, come into existence until what, like the 19th century, but ogre. I'm sure that's like what they were doing.

First off, there's a difference between colonizing and conquering. And I feel like we need to have a history lesson because we live in the stupidest period ever. And every single day I wake up and I look at headlines. And I think, oh my gosh, these people are sober and they vote. And they like drive cars and stuff like all near us.

It's so weird. Welcome to the show. Happy Monday. It's Dana Lash with you here to break down. all the nonsense as we get started with your week and uh get you set up.

But it's I mean that's what it is the left is xenophobic And they hate immigrants. And that's exactly what you're seeing here. She's, this was what she said on 2020 about Columbus Day. And this is what I keep hearing from all of these people, because isn't that, let me look at my calendar. What is it called again?

Hold up. No, don't tell me. Indigenous whatever day. I say this as someone who, unlike Elizabeth Warren, can document my indigenous ancestry. Yeah, it's Indigenous.

People's Day. Um We're going to get into some of this stuff. Because It's so, it's like it's a rewriting of history, and they're actually. They're the ones who are who are actually Anti-emigrant. When you heard that, What if, I mean, how anti-immigrant does that sound?

Right? From our borders are. Yeah, from our borders are. She's here like hate non-immigrants. She's like they they ushered in a wave of death.

You know what? Because tribal nations were innocent and knew no evil until that dirty Italian brought it over. That's I mean, it's really anti Italian sentiment is you know, is part of what it is too. But This Th this this idea that You know, these these tribes came, they were so peaceful. They were so peaceful.

They were so peaceful. And loving. And just they lived in harmony. And they traded joy And there was no disease, no disease everything was so lovely. until those evil Europeans came over, And they brought with them evil and devastation and destruction and all of this.

That's what we hear every. What is it? Every Columbus Day. That's what we hear. Every Columbus Day.

That's exactly what we hear. I'm an an I just don't know why the left doesn't see how. what they're doing is actually racist and xenophobic and all this other stuff. But that's the thing of it. We're always told every single year.

That you're evil, and that all these peaceful cane, these peaceful brown people. There was no Evil at all in America. That's ignorant. There was no evil. That's ignorant.

Okay. It's all peace. And then Christopher Columbus brought a boatload of evil with him, and all these men with their Jesus, and they came in. And they did all this stuff. Stop that peaceful baby sacrifice, everything else.

I which which is this is what's also interesting. No one ever talks about The colonizing or conquering because the left doesn't see a difference. No one ever talks about. The Mongol Empire. You see what they did?

Pretty brutal.

Well we'll talk about that here in a moment. No one ever talks about I mean, everybody knows they might be giants, right? Is Stan Bull with Constantinople and it's See, I mean, everybody knows that, but why? Because Istanbul was con was it was colonized. Constantinople was colonized and they turned it into Istanbul.

Every single place where they put a mosque on a church is colonization. I mean the Dome of the Rock, colonization. I mean, it is. It's absolute colonization. I mean, you can get mad and be like, that's ignorant.

I'm offended. I don't give a rad's ass.

So, what? Make her go cry. Doesn't change history. That's colonization. No one ever talks about any of that.

No one talks about The Arab conquering of Africa and the spread of Islam through Africa. No one ever talks about that. If you want to have a discussion about colonization, That's ignorant. can't talk about that. You can only talk about Christopher Columbus.

So we hear every Columbus Day. Every Columbus Day, right, Cain? Did you ever learn about that in school? I was colonizing. Arabs in Africa.

Did you ever hear about Arabs? I never did, not in school. Wow. Yeah. Oh, what about turkey?

How dare you? Turkey was never colonized. Oh, no, it wasn't, really? Is that what you're gonna call it? It was just conquered.

Oh, now there's a difference to you? You dumbasses.

Now there's a difference. I love people who like don't know history. It's so great.

So great. What about the Christians in Bosnia? during the autumn and rain. No one wants to talk about that. No one wants to talk about how the majority of them they were forced to convert to Islam if you want to have a discussion about colonization.

The girls, the daughters were raped. Uh the boys were taken in. and they were used as cannon fodder. And then during the Turkish occupation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, they would. tattoo their kids.

So that they could prevent them from being kidnapped. They had um they had them tattooed. I mean, that's like a w it was like a thing. They didn't want them to be taken into uh being a concubine with the caliphate. The girls.

And they don't want the boys to be, you know, shot out of camp. I mean, that's what they did. Nobody wants to talk about that. No one wants to have this conversation about colonization then. Heavens, no.

Or what about how in what the 13th century, in the Ottoman Empire, you had what Lebanon, Syria, Greece, Egypt, Bulgaria, Romania, Macedonia, all of these countries that were con that were colonized. by the Ottoman Turks. Oh my gosh, you can't say those words, Dina Colonization is only when white Europeans do it. That's a fact. Is it now?

Is it now? I mean, we I I'm just Turkey, by the way, didn't gain independence. from the Ottoman Empire until 1923. you know, colonization and all, if we want to have a conversation about colonization. And I'm I rem remember when I mentioned the Mongols too, my gosh, thirteenth century.

Genghis Connor is John Kerry with a genjus con. Remember when he it was uh that old video of him testifying before the Senate? I mean, they literally wiped cities off maps. They destroyed entire cities. If they couldn't colonize them, you were destroyed.

They were totally destroyed. Oh, don't say colonization. I mean, let's talk nothing about let's just go here to the United States of America and talk about the different Indigenous nation tribes. There was never any war between tribes.

Well, then why were there warriors? Why were there braves? Why was there like literally a history of different wars between different nations in the United States with Indigenous nations? This is what white Democrats think. White Democrats don't know anything about brown history.

Not a damn thing. Everything to them is colonization. They think that they're the only people that are capable of evil. In a way, it's like a stupid racism. I don't know if it's meant as kindness.

Or if they're just that dumb. Because they think, well, no one knows evil except us. I think it's a self-hatred. I think that it's just a self-loathing and a self-hatred. And that's why they they believe the things that they believe and say the stupid stuff that they say.

Because The idea that there was never any conflict or the idea that Actual other African nations sold Africans into slavery, and then it was later exploited by other people, and African nations were only none too happy to trade their enemies in for slaves. They conveniently omit all of this. And then, when you bring it up, they try to act like you're justifying any badness done. No one's doing that. We're trying to say, be honest.

This has existed in every aspect of humanity, no matter the creed, no matter the religion, no matter the race. There is not a group of people that are just, you know, as innocent as pure-driven snow. It's never happened. It's never existed. It's just the way of things, it's the way of the world, it's the way of mankind.

And this just gets dumber and dumber every Columbus Day. Do you know in 1891 I don't know how many of you realize this. Do you remember the Italian lynchings That almost got a war declared on us by Italy. I mean, if you want to talk about Columbus Day and all that stuff. Which I still think some of it's anti Italian sentiment if I'm being honest.

There were 11 Italian Americans who were lynched They were brutally murdered. It was considered one of the largest lynchings in American history. Tens of thousands of people. This is in New Orleans. They had uh Oh, I mean they 11 men they killed eleven men.

It was one of the largest lynchings in U.S. history, March 14, 1891. There was a popular police chief named David Hennessy. and he was shot and killed while he was walking home from work. And when a witness asked him, reportedly who did it, he gave them a slur for Italians.

Now, at that time in New Orleans, there were more Italian immigrants in New Orleans than there were in any other southern state. You had almost half a million Many of them were Sicilians. who moved in to New Orleans. And that's why the French quarter for a very long time was known as Little Palermo. And they worked hard and they were religious and they loved their family and they loved Jesus.

And there were a lot of people, a lot of Italians who had been living there even before the Louisiana Purchase and before all of this happened. But it it really it it exploded. And Sicilians and Italians were viewed very oddly by Americans. They hated the Irish and they hated the Italians. And because they were olive skin, they had slurs for their names.

For four of them. And everybody who was to still and everybody who's Italian was sus suspected of being in the mafia.

So there was some there was a While all this was happening, while this David Hennessy guy was shot, there was a fight between two Italian families in New Orleans at the same time.

So a lot of people were just saying, oh, well, it had to do with that. It probably had to do with like a mob boss. It had to do with something like that. And then all of the discontent and weirdness that people had already felt that pre-existed this against Italian Americans in New Orleans at the time, it just kind of all boiled over. And um they people went on a witch hunt.

I mean, literally, they had like an editorial in their paper where they were telling people to rise up. and like protect their their civilization, go after the Italians. And so vigilante justice That I mean, that's what happened. There was a group of dudes that, I mean, they started arresting, they started taking these people that they just presumed were connected into custody. And long story short, there was a whip mob, a mob whipped into a frenzy outside of the jail, and they were able to break into the jail and they lynched 11 Italian Americans.

And it got so bad that like Italy was mad. And we had to make some concessions. We had to actually smooth things over, literally, with the kingdom of Italy. with the nation of Italy, which had just been a new nation. Because it got so bad it hurt our diplomatic relationship.

That's how bad it was. And I mean, it was I it it it I mean, it was pretty wild. People seem to forget that. And it was one of the reasons why there were a lot of Christopher Columbus statues put in predominantly Italian neighborhoods in the United States. And so here we are, all these years later, and we have Democrats again today using this day as a way to not just denigrate the contributions of immigrants.

But you continue and perpetuate slurs against immigrants. with these xenophobic rants. That's how they look at this. That's their true sentiment about immigrants. Our partners over at Hillsdale College, an educational institution that was founded to offer the type of education needed to preserve civil and religious liberties.

So apparently, Kamala Harris is gonna sit down for an interview with Brett Baer. It's supposed to air on Wednesday of this week per the New York Times.

So that should be kind of interesting. That would be in his 5 p.m. Central, 6 p.m. Eastern hour.

So, ooh, we will see how that goes. I just don't know if all of this press blitz is actually gonna do anything. I really don't, I just don't see it doing anything. Do you guys? I don't see this doing anything either.

We're gonna talk more about this because it's just getting worse and worse with Tim Walls. We gotta talk about that Tim Walls ad. Oh, you know what I'm talking about. Also, let's see here: scientists, this is interesting, they say that This is like inception, a potential breakthrough as they claim two people communicated in their dreams in a world first. They said it's two-way communication between individuals during lucid dreaming.

Which sounds like it's out of... Inception, right? It was a neurotech company. They said they achieved the first two-way communication between two individuals during lucid dreaming. It's the REM Space Company.

So it's a California startup. I don't know if I'd want to talk to people in my dreams. You know? I really don't think so. Sleep to get away from you.

Yeah, I slept to get away from you, Piki. I saw M mystery dron drones swarmed a US military base for 17 days. The Pentagon is stumped. They have no idea what it could be. They said that they flew unhindered over sensitive national security sites and they have no idea how to stop them.

I'm sure that it possibly couldn't have been. China. The same. Let's see this. Ooh, America's New Millionaire Class: Plumbers and HVAC Entrepreneurs.

I Oh my gosh, everybody's been asking me to react to this Tim Walls video.

First off, welcome back to the show. Dana Lash with you. You can listen coast to coast, you can watch the stream, channel 347, direct TV. Uh and uh find us on X Rumble where the chat happens, substack the newsletter.

So Tim Walls. Decided to, did he invite the media or did they just set up a, they set up this interview where he. was in the field, he was supposed to prete he was pretending that he was pheasant hunting. And he has been really keen to show everybody that he's like a dude's dude, right? We all know he's not, but let's move on.

And He decided it was the what is it, opening day. of pheasant season, pheasant hunting season. He didn't bag a single bird, apparently. opening day pheasant hunting season. He has the media there with him, right?

I just think when you're fighting the media, To go shoot with you. You need to learn how to Load your stuff. That's all I'm saying. I I need you to watch this video because here he is in the field. Basically, he just stood there in orange and March stomped around the field a little bit with hunters, and that was the extent of it.

Wait. Watch him fumble here.

Well, he's trying to load his shotgun. Watch this video. This is insane. And it never fits quite right. Never fits quite right.

Just not quite right. How do you get it back? Governor, what kind of gun is it? This is a Beretta A400. Nice Italian.

I bought it when I was shooting a lot of trap. Because it has a Did he try to pump it? It's not pump action. I just see things. I I love how he goes.

It's got this special thing so it doesn't hurt your shoulder. I mean, this shoulder pad, you Dumbass. Oh, my gosh. I don't know. I don't know how this was really hard to watch and he's he's sitting here acting like I mean, he can't load the damn thing.

And he was bragging about how much he shoots. That's what gets me. Like he's... He started this bragging about how much he shoots. And how much he hunts.

And I would be really uneasy if I was in the field with this dude. And he had You know. This shotgun A modern shotgun, and he couldn't load the damn thing, I would feel really nervous around him. I I would not feel comfortable. Like probably more nervous than I would feel if I was with Dick Cheney.

Just saying. I mean It is really bad. Yeah. So, when Barack Obama last week was like, can Trump even change a tire?

Well, hell, can Tim Walls even load a shotgun? I mean, come on. I mean, I'm looking at this. And I'm looking at screenshots right now of it. He looked like he just, he looked, he tries to, this is why I don't like him pretending to be a responsible gun owner because he makes responsible gun owners look bad.

Look at what he was doing with that. Did he get a tampon stuck in the chamber? Like, what happened? Like, I don't understand. You're supposed to hold shells.

You p don't put tampons in it, Tim. Come on. I don't know. I was just he's just a he he's pandering Obviously. But It looks so bad.

He looked like he was entirely unfamiliar with his Beretta. And he kept saying alt and and he Told reporters that it wasn't new. He told them that he got it a long time ago. And he was bragging about how much he shoots. And this is his this is what he uses to shoot trap.

This is what he that's what he was saying to reporters. Because there's other that was just the that's the most important part of the video. There's other parts that's like hard to hear, but he was bragging about like how much he shoots. And then he gets his gun and he's like fumbling with it. Does that look like a dude who shoots?

You go ahead and run it again if you can, Juan. Does it look like a guy who shoots often? We actually have a different angle who it shows his hands more in this particular one. Of course, we do. Here we go.

Let's put it up right now. See him load the tampons in. Go ahead and put it up there. It's just so bad. It's so bad.

There's he's fumbling and saying I don't know how to work this, I use ASUCREB all the time. Mm-hmm. He's just so awkward looking. And that's when he's pointing. He goes, I love what he says there.

He's like, yeah. Uh uh I got this thing here. It uh makes it so it doesn't hurt your shoulder. It's literally what he said. He says it's got a special thing so it doesn't hurt your shoulder.

So when you get old, it doesn't hurt your shoulder as much. I am oh my gosh, I'm dead. I can't. I can't. It looks bad.

And so you have Kamala Harris trying to tell everybody that she owns a Glock. And then she's telling everybody, yeah, shoot those people who come up into your house. But then she conveniently omits. That she actually supported a handgun ban and supported banning all of block. In California, and that as the head of what is it, the gun control working group with the White House, the Office for Gun Violence Prevention.

that she Is being accused by the Republicans in House, James Comer, who subpoenaed her. of colluding With the ATF and the city of Chicago against Glock because Chicago is suing Glock. It's a stupid lawsuit. They're the people who also sued Kia and Hyundai because they were saying, How dare you make your cars to where they can get stolen? It's like Kia's like, we're not making our cars to get stolen.

What's the matter with you? It's like one of those suits. Like, they're mad at Glock, like, how dare you make something that someone could use illegally?

Well, that's not the purpose of the product, but it's a nonsense suit. But she's being accused of colluding with the ATF in the city of Chicago. Against Glock in that.

So you have her doing this, him doing that. Do you think anybody. Because everybody's making a play for the hunters. There's a lot of unregistered voters that are hunters. Is any of this making any of y'all feel easy?

Look, Republicans did not help themselves when they deprioritized guns on their platform. Believe me, I got a beef. Yeah, I got a big beef because that's a major issue with me. I don't know. I just think when you've literally had your life threatened and you've relied on firearms to defend yourself, it becomes a big issue to you.

You know what I'm saying?

So, or a bigger issue than it ever even was to begin with with you. And so I get that, but I don't see Republicans out there fumbling. Like this. They're not talking about banning stuff. They're not talking about going into people's houses.

They wouldn't do that. They wouldn't pass it because there would be a literal riot on the right. But I mean, they're just this just looks so dumb. I mean, I'm looking at this and it looks so bad. And he didn't get any birds, you know, because he shoots all the time.

I so some of my friends are not judging him for not bagging a bird on opening day. I am because he bragged about it nonstop. If you listen to him talk to the press, he acts like he's John Wick. He acts like he taught Taryn Butler everything he knows. That's what he acts like, doesn't he?

And then you see them out there doing this. Oh my gosh. No, I'm gonna do it.

So, they've been trying to reach out to gun owners. That's what all of this was about. This whole stunt was about them reaching out to gun owners. And trying to, you know, seem legit, and it, you know, backfired, obviously, big time. But this absolute dumbass With his I mean, I can't stop looking at how awkward he looks.

I mean He just doesn't know what he's doing. I'm like watching the video. He just doesn't know what he's doing. I don't know. It looks so bad.

It is embarrassing. Oh my gosh. If that would have been a Republican, they would have never lived it down. Right, you guys know this. They were never lit, never ever lived it down.

And remember, the first joint thing that he did with Kamala Harris. was to promote A ban on the modern sporting rifles, semi-automatic rifles that are used in the least crimes. I don't know. I mean, I I just can't. He's got a Barrett.

How much is that Barretta? That's a that's not a that's not a cheap A cheap shotgun, yeah. It's in a nice Italian gun. You know, Columbus Day, it's a nice Italian gun. But He I'm just wondering.

The legal status of his firearm, I don't know. Just curious. I mean, don't you have to limit? Your shells? I got to look at it.

I'll have to look at Minnesota's law on that. I'm just curious. Don't you have to limit it? Because it looked like he loaded 5N. Did he load 5N?

It sounded like It sounded like he loaded four in. If we go back to that first video, we heard it sounds like. He's just shoving four shells in there. Don't because don't. In some places, don't you gotta use a plug to reduce.

Like to thwart your own capacity.

So, did he do that? Governor, what kind of gun is it? This is a Beretta A400. Well, he's struggling so bad. I bought it when I was kids.

He just did it for the chaps. Let's be real. They told him he'd be wearing chaps and so he showed up. Maybe he just fumbled with two and I thought it sounded like four.

Alright, I got the price on the gun. What's the price on the gun? Should we guess? I thought it's going to be expensive. $4,800.

I was going to say $4,800, but that may be too much. That's too high. It's like $5,600, isn't it? Yeah. Twenty two hundred What am I thinking of?

I don't have a nice bird gun. I don't really I don't really bir I've never bird hunt before.

Well, I mean, I've never successfully bird on it. Let me put it like that. Let me redefine it. I've not been successful at it.

So I'm like, I'm not going to go and I haven't gotten a nice bird gun. When I've gone, I've used my father-in-law's bird gun before. But He's got a really nice one. My husband has a real nice one. Uh my oldest son has a nice one.

Um, I'm gonna have to get, but I'd I'd probably I like Barrett, I'd probably get Barretta. Uh, Benelli makes really good stuff too. Anyway. Long story short, he didn't fire any of it. I'm just curious about.

This because someone asked me if he was operating legally. And I'm like, that's actually a really good question. That's something I'm going to come back to that because there's going to be a piece going up at Substack. I'll look back on that. But has that convinced anybody?

Has his has that stunt that he just did convinced anybody? No! I mean, you can sit here and you can pretend all day long and be like, look, we're... Look at it, we're just we're doing w I'm lo I'm loading the shotgun, look at how I'm such a hunter, hurr her. I but I don't think that that's I don't think that that's doing anything with any for anybody.

I don't. I don't think that that's like, um I I don't think that you're You're undercutting any overtures to any kind of firearm community. by telling everyone that you're going to ban half of what they own. And then you're actually entertaining the idea of mandatory confiscation that you call a buyback. I mean, it just doesn't work.

It doesn't work. We got more on the way. He just, like I said, he did it for the chaps. They said, hey, Tim, you can wear chaps. Wink, wink.

You know, I'm going to show up and wear chaps. And you can put load tampons in here. You thought it was hunting peasants, not pheasants. Yeah, he thought it was peasant hunting. That's right, not pheasant hunting.

He was confused. You know, as one would be when your name is Tim Walls. It's our friends over at Caltech. The P15 stands for 15 pews approximately. It's a great.

American company, Florida-based company, great success story as well. But Keltech, the P15, is, doesn't matter if you're new. It doesn't matter if you're new to shooting like Tim Walls or if you're a seasoned old pro. This is, it's lightweight and powerful. You don't have to compromise stopping power for concealability.

And that's what the P15 delivers. It has two versions. You have a metal frame version and the polymer version. It's a striker fire pistol. Metal frame comes with these gorgeous walnut panels on it.

The polymer version's got the Gator Grip texture. It's just a really nice looking gun. Classic look, classic feel. And it ships with two standard capacity magazines. One is a 15-round with a minimal pinky extension.

The other is a Flush Fit double stack mag that holds 12. Both are double stack magazines. I know. And it's still the thinnest 9mm you will have. It's the lightest, thinnest 9mm I have, and it's double-stack mag.

12-round one with the flush fit that gives you even more ultra-concealability. Tritium fiber optic front sight, fully adjustable fiber optic 2. Lifetime warranty as well, Compact. And it's from the Inventors of the Micro-Compact Pistol category. It's the P-15 Innovation Performance Keltech.

Mm. Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. Hey Kamala HQ, I'm Gwen Walls and I have been an educator for a really long time and I'm here with an assignment for you today. It's due on November 5th.

Now I'm going to put my teacher classes on because this is really serious, like a final and there's no late work. I need you to take yourself and three friends to the ballot box and make your voice heard. You have to vote. I'm going to repeat that again. You and three of your friends have to make your voices heard by voting.

I'm tired of her like lecturing us. She's weird and creepy. And if I was casting like a horror movie teacher, like you know how they always make these horror movies about nuns, but they never make them about teachers, I would cast her. She would be like the demonic entity that's like faking as a teacher. eating up all the kids in the classroom, honestly, 'cause she's creepy.

I get major creepo vibes, and not just because it's like it's it's it's um Halloween season, spooky season. I think she just sounds like she's always talking to kids, like she doesn't know how to talk to adults. No, she just doesn't know how to do it. I don't think that she does at all. It's just weird.

Like, turn that page. It's just like, stop talking.

Okay. I know. Yeah. Kane we were all talking about we think there's a ghost in the studio. Not really, but Maybe.

Could be. Spooky season. Kane said that one of the curtains in the studio was on the ground this morning. Yep. And then one of their lids just popped off.

Yep. Fell on the desk. I don't know if I believe in ghosts. I don't know. My kids insist that the house that we lived in in St.

Louis was super haunted. They insist that it was haunted. They said that they saw stuff, they heard stuff. We had a a spooky attic. I literally, my office is on the third floor attic.

It was one of those old timey houses. I didn't notice anything. I don't think I got the shining, but I didn't notice anything. I'm not really creeped out. I'm not easily creeped out.

I'll put it that way because I'm such a skeptic and such a cynic, it's really hard. I mean I don't know. I came one time at the Limp Mansion. If you guys aren't familiar with this, it's an old brewery mansion in St. Louis.

I walked around by myself in the dark. What? I stayed the night there. I walk around by myself at night in the limp mansion in the dark. Nothing happened.

Didn't see nothing. Certified. That's me because I am a total skeptic and cynic and I just, you know. I got to tell you, my experience. Or I mean and they don't want to mess with me.

Yeah, my experience at the Lemp Mansion.

So we were doing a live broadcast for Halloween at the Lemp Mansion. You know how crazy that is. You know that little elevator that goes down underground into that storage, brewery storage area?

Well, we had two listeners with me. We went down there and did you see any ghosts? Oh, well, we heard and saw things move and can't explain it. But we didn't necessarily see a ghost or an apparition or anything. I just never saw anything.

I just never saw anything like that. That was the creepiest I've ever felt. You know how you get that the hair stands up on your arm? But this was like back of neck and shoulder. Like, ugh.

I'm like more creeped out watching Gwen Walls. than I was walking around by myself. at night in the Lint Mansion. That's fair. And I was downstairs even.

I was like, I'm going to go to all places where they mark themselves. Yeah, you can do that if you stay there. It was like a bed and breakfast. It's totally spooky. It's haunted.

There's no question in my mind that mansion's haunted. It feels heavy when you walk in there, but that's the only thing I noticed. I don't know. But they said that the room up on the third floor is the most haunted, it's the hauntedest. And somebody was staying up there so I couldn't go in, but Yeah, I I don't know, I never I didn't nothing ever happened.

Like I said, Gwen Wallace terrifies me more. If I was, if I had to pick. Between being by myself at night in the basement of the Lint Mansion or being in a room during broad daylight with Gwen Walls, I'd pick the Lint Mansion. Because she's weird, dude. She's weird.

I think she blinks vertically. Think about it. It's weird, man. Lizard people. She totally is, dude.

It's weird. That's why she. If you were an alien who was talking to people. and you were trying to be a person and be convincing, that's what you would act like. Like you would act like you would pick what's the most like unassuming trustworthy a teacher Right?

You were rolling your eyes at me a second ago, but now some of you out there are like, well, she does make some sense. The girl does make some sense here. You know I'm right. I don't think I would choose, though. I don't know, that's That's between a fear that I know and a fear that I don't know.

And the Lent Mansion is the fear that I don't know. I like variety, so I'd pick what I don't know. Really? Yeah. You're a better man than I.

I I would though. But she is so, every time she talks, I watch her eyes. I'm like, she's going to blink vertically. I'm watching her face and seeing what she does. She gives me the weirdest vibes.

And when she did that interview where she was talking about how she liked the smell of things burning coming through her window. Didn't she like disappear into the past for a moment? Like she was like reminiscing joyfully and her face got this like eerie calm. And she was thinking, you could tell she was remembering it fondly. That's weird, you guys.

We have a second hour on the way, you don't wanna miss. As we roll. Forward. More of the forward same. Stick with us.

I agree with Annie Oakley, who said, I would like to see every woman know how to handle guns as naturally as they know how to handle babies.

Now, I myself regularly conceal carry a nine-millimeter.

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

So, this is where Burna comes in. It's kind of like a starter weapon. It's they make a non-firearm firearm. I like the idea of incredible force sending chemical irritants towards a threat as an additional option for women. And the Burna SD model shoots chemical irritant projectiles, 68 caliber rounds, that can deter threats in their tracks up to 50 feet away.

I mean, it is hard. Easy target acquisition, zero recoil. Burna is legal in all 50 states. There's no background checks, no permits required. It's shipped directly to your door.

Gun-free isn't applicable to Burna. It's great for wherever guns are banned. Visit Burna.com. dot com slash dana for ten percent off that's by r n a dot com slash dana Welcome to the radio program. It's Professional Lady Radio.

My name is Dana Lash. I'm in a really weird mood. And it's the top of our second hour. And we were talking about how Gwen Walls terrified us. 'Cause there's new video of her being all spooky.

She's just a spooky person, right? She's weird. She's. I bet that she's got veneers on, and she's got fake teeth, and when she takes them out, they're like all filed into points. She's a legit scary dude, lady, person, whatever.

person. Yeah. She's an alien. Anyway, welcome back to the show. Dana Lash here.

We're all weirded out. We're all like trying to freak each other out on break. It's funny. Not Diddy style, by the way.

So, happy Monday. And uh we've been talking about the Tim Walls ad. or interview. It's an ad. Let's be real.

He... Who went onto a field and he's wearing, I think they just said, Tim, you can wear some chaps if you show up. And he's like, I love chaps. He shows up. And doesn't know how to load his barretta that he was bragging about.

Like, I use this all the time to shoot. And was bragging about how great of a shot he is and how he shoots with this particular gun all the time.

So yeah, gun owners, vote for me. Forget about me wanting to take all your stuff. Just fo for me. Watch me load my shotgun. Fumbles.

And he didn't bag a single bird. It's just weird. And um I don't know. I just, um,. They're everything I'm reading, and I'm pulling this up too.

Democrats are l freaking out right now. Because Kamala is not doing well.

Now, I am not going to sit here. One thing that I am not going to do. Is go, oh guys, I feel like there's a red wave coming. No, because remember, that was what everyone was saying in 2022. And I'm like, it's not happening.

And they said it in 2022. And I was like, eh. Uh But it's not, it didn't happen. And there were polls indicating that it wasn't going to happen at the time. It's really close.

I also feel like the moment you tell that, not feel I know, the moment you tell it to Republicans, something clicks in their head. And they go, oh, I guess I can relax now. It's all in the bag. And then they just, they. Don't do anything.

They stop. It's so frustrating.

So Kamala Harris can still win. But she's on the struggle bus a little bit, which is a different place for her to be because normally she's under the tires.

So. Democrats, they released an ad. Where I actually had to go back and check because I saw this over the weekend on X. It was an ad where they were slamming third-party candidates. And they were going after people like Jill Stein.

I was like, hello, 2016? Is this 2016 here? No, they were. I think That They're so worried about Because it it that tells you A how close it is. and b they're so worried about how close it is.

That They're trying to compensate for that. uh with with some of the stuff. uh and by by picking off third party stuff. I also think that they're hoping. that female voters overperform, which I don't think they will.

That's one of the reasons why they're hitting that so much. to an annoying degree. to where every single thing is about how you need to vote for Kamala Harris. because she's like a woman or something and I'm I'm done with it. How many times have you seen This or heard this talking point.

from their campaign. Where it's well, you know, you need a You need to vote for Kamala Harris because she's a woman, and that's what they say. I think we had some audio that was something. to this effect. Because they keep saying that It's a gender gap.

And that's one of the reasons why. uh she's on that she's she's not doing very well. And they try to use that as an excuse for how poorly she performed in the primary, but they're also suggesting it's a reason why she's struggling in the polls. And That's doesn't have anything to do with it. Because People aren't opposed to her for her being a woman.

It's for her being. just completely incompetent. and underaccomplished. Audio soundbite 26. This is what?

This is what one of her surrogates is saying. Listen. I mean, the top line is the five-point advantage that Kamala Harris had in our last poll is gone. What's behind that shift? Yeah, exactly, Sven.

I mean, just look at them side by side and you can see it. Remember that poll we took a month ago that you see here? It was just after that first Trump-Harris debate. Since then, we've had the VP debate. There have been some campaign activities, some interviews, some things that have changed in that time.

I think this might be the biggest for Harris. We just asked the basic image perception people have: is it positive or negative of these candidates? The Trump number has always been somewhere in this territory. In fact, this is a little bit high for him, believe it or not. 43% positive.

But look at Harris: 43 positive, 49% negative. The significance we polled this a month ago. She was 48% positive and 45% negative. She was above water, as they say. You know what?

It doesn't help. I don't know if we can play this, SNL. Because Oh, hold on. We have to fight with YouTube over fair use. They won't let you play anything.

So it's so ridiculous. And they, and I. It's something that we gotta deal with YouTube just. I don't have enough middle fingers for it. Uh but they made fun of her over the weekend, so that's all I can b basically say or they'll strike our video.

So I don't know, they just they're having a problem. They're having a big problem right now. And then you have Jim Clyburn, audio sun by 30. He is trying to reprise what he did. Back in 2016, because you know, Joe Biden would not have been.

President of the United States. without James Clyburn. because James Clyburn delivered South Carolina for him.

Now listen to Clyburn. They're trying to shame black Americans into voting for Commonwealth Harris. Listen. The problem is There were ninety-five years. between number eight and number nine.

and the policies that are 95 years. That kept us out. of government. out of uh this economy. It's called Jim Crow.

Oh, good heavens. If you look at 2025. It will be. Jim Crow 2.0 First off, that's not a Trump thing. I don't even want to address it.

It's so stupid. It's not even a Trump thing. It was like a policy Thing over at the Heritage Foundation, and I'm trying to figure out why people are upset with it. They act like it's like uh I don't know. Yeah, it's just it's it's it's literally like policy discussion.

Trump had nothing to do with it I mean, literally, Trump had nothing to do with it. Nor did anybody in his campaign. That's like saying that a third-party entity came out with some policy suggestions. And oh, well, Kamala Harris wrote them. This is her thing.

I mean, it's stupid. This is what the left, this is where they overshoot, you know? If there's things that you want to criticize Trump on, then make sure that they're legitimate things that the dude did. But don't make up this stupid stuff and then try to race bait and race hustle people into falling in line because that's just lame and it just shows you don't got anything else. There's no enthusiasm for Kamala Harris.

There's none. I don't even know Democrats that are excited for her. I have never seen, and I do have some friends who are Democrats because I'm not a partisan Borg. And there are still some people who are decent enough to realize friendships thicker. I've never seen them so depressed.

Ever.

So uninspired, so depressed. ever. Like they, I've I mean, and we're talking about people who are usually real excited about putting those Democrat signs in their lawns. and like making you know, big they are so depressed. They were not super excited before.

The kid the Harris was switched in. And then when Harris was switched in. they won't admit it, but for them it was like admission already of a first defeat. and they knew that they were going to be operating from a negative position. and trying to claw back into the positive.

And I mean, it's... I i it's it's just wild. is wild. I mean, if we want to play the SNL thing, because they even hit her. I just think it's a big thing.

Audio Sun by 31. I think it's a big. 'Cause that it's it's so bad that it forced SNL. Into mocking her. And SNL didn't do this because they thought it would be it was funny and they were creative and they came up with it.

They were forced into doing it just in order to stay with the cultural zeitgeist. Listen. Alright, let's play the game.

Okay, 100 people surveyed top six answers on the board. Name something that you keep in your glove compartment. Oh, BP Harris. Steve, look. I was raised in a middle-class family, all right?

Oh, here we go.

Okay, my mother raised my sister me, all right? She worked hard and saved up. Yeah, uh-huh. And we had a second mother, too.

Okay. Did that mother have a glove compartment? A small business owner named Miss Shelton.

Okay, we got that.

Something that you keep in your glove compartment. Oh, a Glock, Steve. A big old Glock. Yeah, I don't. You mean like the kind she wanted to ban in California?

I mean, and and literally made it like one of the unauthorized Like you have to have it on a roster of what California considers safe guns. I'm not even kidding. It's just interesting. It's just interesting. I'm just saying.

But They're having a lot of trouble right now. They're having a lot of problems. And in looking at this, I got a Got some got some. Her negatives are up. There's no momentum.

And you can see her on, I mean, it doesn't even matter. Let me just pull up, doesn't even matter what aggregate you're looking at, honestly. She can't keep momentum. Even CNN is noticing that she's struggling. with momentum.

And I love it how they say Trump's extreme vision for America hikes pressure on Harris. That's as close to as what they can get. I know. That's as close as they can get, Cenan can get to saying this. But there is it's um Everybody's noting that She's in trouble.

There has been a shift and people can feel it. They can tell it. They know it. They said an ABC was reporting. That her internals show that she is in a lot of trouble.

Pennsylvania is tough for her right now. Wisconsin and Michigan are tough with her. I got to tell you, I think people are going to look back, although I was saying this from the moment it was announced. Tim Walls is her running mate. I think that was the fatal blow.

I I get gut feelings about stuff. I'm not speculative and I don't believe in, you know. I could that kind of prognostications I don't, but I'm just telling I got a gut feeling. And I believe That people are going to look back and be like, the Tim Walls thing, that was the fatal thing for her. her campaign.

If she would have picked Josh Shapiro, Pennsylvania would not be in play. the way it is. for Democrats right now. she would be in a very good position. If she had picked Josh Shapiro.

I'm actually glad that she didn't. And honestly, it was one of the things I was the most nervous about. after everything switched up to her because I knew the media was gonna go all in for her. But I also knew that they that she had to pick a really strong she had to pick a good VP. But what she ended up doing, she didn't go with Shapiro because.

That wasn't. The she she didn't go with Shapiro because that wasn't the the Uh The future of the party is as her and her left-wing Marxist faction view it. They went with Waltz because he's a Marxist. They went for ideology over strategy. In a way, Trump did too.

But Vance is a Better strategist and just better in front of the press than Walt is.

So it's like a non-issue at this point. But Shapiro would have definitely put that state in play. And I mean, she would not, I mean, it's tough for her right now. And when you consider how everything's looking at coming down to North Carolina and Pennsylvania, oh my gosh. And then we Trump releases internals.

for his swing state polling and it showed him ahead in s in almost every single swing state. Small margins. I would say that he's virtually tied in every single swing state because nothing's beyond the margin of error.

However, He is up uh up against Harris, ahead of Harris. And those were his internals that he released. They had to feel very confident about their position to release that. I'm just telling you, it's fast. I mean, she's going to get more desperate, and they don't have anything else.

So SpaceX, this was crazy. It catched. It caught Falcon Heavy, the Falcon Super Heavy rocket booster in its Mechazilla arms. I watched this and I struggled. What is like, it's like USBA or USB-C, whatever, the little thingy that you, the little one singular prong thing that you got to put in a stupid outlet that's in the wall.

And I struggled with it because you put it in there and it's like, nope, you flip it and it goes, nope, and you do it a couple more times and then it's like, okay, I'll accept your original offering. I felt so stupid watching this video because I struggled with that outlet yesterday morning, and then I literally watched. A big giant rocket land on a steel needle. in Boca Chica, Texas. This is crazy.

It looks like a supernatural thing. That's just wild.

So, I don't know. Elon Musk is saving the world. We're going to be talking about him here coming up because the way that. The way that the uh I think the administration and everything else have been dealing with him. I just can't, I can't get over this rocket.

It's actually really cool. Let's see. Also, of course, this decided to freeze just now because why would it not? Just waiting for it. I hate it.

I'm going to take this computer and I'm going to throw it across the room. This, what did I get into it? Oh, Harris is going to war with Franklin Graham. Why? Out of all the things, Evangelicals for Harris goes to war with Franklin Graham.

If you're an evangelical going, I look, I think that. It's sometimes silly to say you're not a real Christian if you're voting for this person, but if you're voting for abortion on demand funded by the taxpayer, yeah, you need to be checking your religious affiliation because God definitely will at the pearly gates.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. Kamala Harris is set to sit down with Brett Baer in an interview that is going to air on Wednesday. I really hope. that Brett Baer asks her First and foremost, what gen of Glock do you own?

And secondly, Why Do you own a firearm that you push to ban? In California, that you had that you had declared unsafe in California and It's the same manufacturer. that you are accused of fighting against And why are you stonewalling? The House's subpoena into whether or not the office you head. which is the Office of Gun Violence Prevention.

Whether or not they've been colluding along with the ATF and the city of Chicago against Glock. And that lawsuit. I mean I would love for that question to be asked. If anyone would ask it, it would be Breber. I mean, you could even prepare her to answer that question, she's still not going to answer it well.

But the reason I think that that's it's a big issue, and it's a big issue not just regarding firearms, but there's a couple of things at play here. Uh I and gosh, please stop saying Glocks don't have safeties. Glocks have safeties. Stop it. They have a three-tiered safety system, and part of that is within the trigger.

So, don't say that because then you just sound like you don't know what you're talking about with guns. Please, I see so many like-minded people saying, Well, Glocks don't have safety. Stop saying that they do. Uh My whole point, though, in bringing and him focusing on that, it has less to do with firearms and more also about. The double standard.

That She lives. I mean, she. She would have had to had to have a special exemption, I think. Because certain Glocks, I mean they they grandfathered some of the the old Gen Zen. And but they're considered unsafe.

I mean, that's literally, California has like this whole list of unsafe firearms. That's so dumb. I'm I'm just curious as to You know. How that works for her. Did she get special exemption to get it?

Because apparently she got it in 2005.

So that wouldn't have been great that would have been past the grandfathering in, or 2005 to 2006, I think is what I read. And that's, that's, I, and I hope he kind of pinpoints that as well. Because when she got it will determine whether or not she got something that had been grandfathered in, or if she had actually. Uh had to have a special exemption to get something that normal people can't get in California. I got a lot of questions.

So I just, you know, a lot of questions. And then you have Bill Clinton who just threw a wrench and everything. unintentionally can we play this audio of him this is I mean wow, watch this. You had a case in Georgia not very long ago, didn't you? They made an ad about it, about a young woman who'd been killed by an immigrant.

Yeah, well if they'd all been properly vetted that probably wouldn't have happened. But if they are properly vetted and that doesn't happen And America is not having enough babies to keep our populations up.

So we need immigrants that have been vetted to do work. There wouldn't be a problem.

Well, he sounds like a guy who had a membership to a whites-only golf club back in the 90s, doesn't he? Is he dead? Uh He g he said that they weren't properly vetted. If the Biden-Harris administration had properly vetted. It, quote, if they'd all been properly vetted, that wouldn't have happened.

He was wearing that horrible. Harry Wall's hat. But who is he campaigning for?

Well, there. I am Utterly confused. What the heck did we just hear? You had a case in Georgia they made an ad about it. A woman who had been killed by an immigrant.

If they had been properly vetted, There's two levels of confusion for me. One, like, wow, that's not a Democrat talking point at all. No, it's not. And two, he's concerned about fewer babies yet. Pro-abortion.

Like I am I'm so confused. Yeah, that was a weird to hear.

Well, 'cause they're not get you'cause you're aborting all of them. You Geezer. That's why. Mm. I I I I don't know.

I I'm I've got like a million I got a million questions on this. I I don't know who he's campaigning for. That needs to be an ad though. Yeah. like a a a a quick response team to just like turn these cuts around like like that.

That's what they need. Trump is plus three in the latest Rasmus symbol. in Pennsylvania. Immigration's a big issue there too, immigration and jobs. Plus three.

Margin of error is 3.5, so still. But That's interesting. Very interesting.

So I'm Curious, I mean it's super close. I think that they're gonna close the gap as the as we get closer 'cause we're what three weeks out now? Yeah. Golly. And she is Really struggling.

I was looking at Wisconsin, same thing. Ah All I mean, it's just she's on the struggle bus, man. This is not getting any better. They looked at It was over 1,027 people. It was conducted on October 13th.

I don't have any of the crosstabs or anything. It's close, but. I think now you can see why she's agreed to do a Fox interview.

Now it it kinda makes some sense now, doesn't it? She's doing a Fox interview. Makes some sense. Kind of see it here. Interesting, right?

Hmm. She needs help. She needs help. And I don't think it's going to get any easier for either. Not at all.

Uh we got I I wanted to also get into let me pull it Oh boy. This uh This is all word salad from her This is so bad. Audio sound bite Nine. What is this? I'm looking at What it says, I don't even.

This all happened over the weekend. Yeah, I know. What is this sentence? Go ahead and play this. Because what we see is so hard to see.

that we lose faith. or a vision of those things we cannot see but must know. What? What we see is so hard to see that we lose faith or a vision of those things. We cannot see but must know.

Okay, so that was really what she said. Oh, wow. Ha. Who's gonna decide to vote for her based on that? That sounds great.

332 is pretty ridiculous. Oh, I'm looking at all of this, and it all looks bad. It di I mean, none of this is I cache, I don't even know. in Wisconsin We got Pennsylvania, she's struggling. Wisconsin.

She's struggling. Coke political report shifted. The Senate race there at to toss up.

Now, that is also a measure of the health of Harris's campaign as well. The Tammy Baldwin is going up against Eric Hoved, and that's the, he's been endorsed by Trump. And Cook shifted that. on Friday to toss up. Yeah.

Democrats think that she's still going to hold on to her seat. But It is going to be really, really close. And in fact, I mean I mean, usually a lot of the races in that state and a couple of them, but in Wisconsin I think are determined by, you know, a few thousand votes. And her her lead, Baldwin's lead, She's fallen seven points. From August.

to today. And she only she barely has a two-point lead. It was 1.8.

So. And it is the out of all the Senate races in these battleground states. That one is the closest. And it sh it would not be that way if you had a very healthy. Strong contender at the top of the ticket.

And some of these down ballot Races, the health of them are d well, the how strong these candidates are, it's determined by the health of the top of the ticket. And what this is showing you is that Uh Harris has no coattails. No coattails. And she cannot articulate any kind of clear Anything. Like Audio Soundbite 33.

This is like the stuff that she says when she goes out and does. These campaign events None of this this sauce is so dumb. Listen. You know, there's this whole. I talked with somebody once who said, you know, if you just.

look at where the the the stars are in the sky. Don't look at them as just random things if you just look at them as points. Look at the constellation, what does it show you?

So you just outlined it, Roland? What does it show you? Oh Lord. Wow. What?

If you look at the but So she's not connected. That's what she sounds like when she's trying to connect with voters, and it doesn't sound very nice. She sounds ridiculous. But this is like the stuff that even when she does these events and these interviews, that's the most that they get out of her. And now you can kind of tell why it is that she's she's just not performing well.

She's not doing well because she cannot connect with voters. That's her trying to be empathetic. That's her trying to sound like she's talking off the cuff and just sitting down shooting the breeze with people. And she comes off as inauthentic and nobody understands what the hell she's saying. She cannot connect.

People need to have that connection, whether it's through the screen or that they need to hear something from you that they can connect to, and they're not hearing that from her. Not at all. And then you wonder why you're struggling. Why is she struggling? I mean, Democrats, they said that they are They're very concerned in Wisconsin.

I think she's actually hurting Baldwin in in that Senate race. They're hurting. Uh they Clyburn's out there. trying to shake down black voters. into voting for Harris.

It's that bad. I mean it's None of this is, this is all just that, this is turning into a big nightmare for them. I don't want Republicans. to get Complacent though. I want there to be such a victory in November that it is never questioned again.

And I You you have to overcome not just the margin of error but the margin of fraud.

So Push. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida Man.

So do you guys remember the Florida dude who strapped his house down? And apparently, like the hooks went all the way into the ground and they were attached, like to concrete, like he did it properly. He actually was able to protect his house.

So this guy uh Pedro Cesarez from Orlando. He strapped his family's house down with these giant straps. Everything was anchored into the ground. This is actually super impressive. And apparently, It was in eight feet of cement in the ground, and he used large plastic straps that they used to secure cargo containers on ships.

attached to ground hooks, And it cost him twenty two thousand dollars to place the stuff around his the roof around his property to s is to have this stuff set. By the way, if he ever sells that, isn't that like a selling point? Like you can strap your house down to And They said that They the reason he did this was because Their aluminum roof nearly flew off during a previous hurricane.

So they got these straps. They strapped it down. It cost $22,000. And they said that they were good. There were a lot of leaves everywhere.

And there's there apparently a lot of the stuff is affected near their house, but everything is good. They're not taking the straps off until the hurricane's over.

So hurricanes over. That's actually impressive. Juan showing you on the simulcast. That's what it looked like. And it worked.

It actually worked. I thought it was AI at first. I did too. No, it literally, that's he apparently lost their roof during a previous hurricane. And he was like, I'm not doing this again.

And so he spent $22,000 getting all of those ground hooks around his property. That's it's actually pretty impressive.

So good on that guy. Wow. Let's see, one Palm Beach Garden homeowner. had a dumpster Tossed onto their roof by an EF3 tornado. This is like one of the tornadoes that was going around right when the hurricane was coming in.

And uh, yeah, it literally threw It's impressive, and there's a video of it. Uh it threw a an entire dumpster. Under the house of the roof of this one house. That's crazy. I mean these things are and those weigh a lot.

Those things weigh a ton. This uh let's see. Coast Guard rescued a dude. who was clinging to a cooler. in open water.

Wow. The day after Hurricane Milton. They were looking for a boat captain. He was wearing a red life jacket, black shirt, and black pants. And they had an emergency locator beacon, and th that's what the guy had, and he also had his his cooler.

He weathered one night in open water. With the hurricane's strong winds and massive waves. He was 30 miles off of Longboat Key in the Gulf of Mexico. Juan's preparing the video. This dude literally spent the night in open water during a hurricane.

With his life fest. his locator beacon, and his cooler. I have never seen anything like this in my life. Holy cow. How did he not get eaten?

I don't even know. And they were like I don't think that they thought they were going to be able to get him. But they said that The I I mean they It's just the craziest thing I've ever seen. They saved him. I mean, they got him out, and he's like, okay, this is so wild that he was out there.

I can't even believe what. Wow. I mean, he had been aboard a fishing boat called the Captain Dave.

Okay, we got Lieutenant Dan, Captain Dave. And he was trying to bring the vessel back into port. And make repairs, but he was trying to beat the hurricane back in. As soon as it wasn't that he was like flouting, you know, preparation. He was trying to get back.

He had a problem with his rudder. But man, he's. The conditions deteriorated too rapidly and he got caught out in it.

So that's that's wild. But he survived a full night and they got him.

So I've never seen anything like that before. Gators, stingrays, and snakes. Florida people Floridians are urged to avoid the floodwaters because there's stingrays in there, there's snakes in there, there's gators in there, there's a myriad of dangers lurking in the water because you are in a swamp, just FYI. It's a swamp.

So they're warning people. Just be careful. Just keep it on your mind. You know, don't live totally in fear, but just. you know, kinda keep it, you know, on your mind that, you know, maybe Maybe you don't want to be out there in that flood.

I wouldn't be because I'd be like, there's my luck, there's like 50 gators right there. You'd open the door, and there's like gators. Good night. We have more on the way. Our third hour is coming up.

And in that third hour We've got Bigfoot. Tim Walls. And uh Well we got a lot. There's those two things are unrelated, by the way. Stick with us.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. Top of this third hour. You can listen coast to coast. You can watch the simulcast of the radio program, channel 347 direct TV as well.

Uh you got uh Rumble, where the chat happens. You got uh what what else are we at? X, run X, we're everywhere. I was look uh f first off, I'm a little distracted 'cause I was looking at this story about uh the space or the robots that the house robots that Elon Musk is. coming out with, did you see these?

I swear this is like some iRobot stuff. It's supposed to be robots that will help you around the house with your tasks. The Optimus robots? Have you seen Kane and I are both like what? They're the Tesla Optimus robots, the biggest product ever of any kind.

the Walking Talking Optimus Robots. They had like a reveal thing on Thursday. and uh they were revealing the company's cyber car. And Uh they're nearly six feet tall. They play rock, paper, scissors.

These are actual things. Have you seen these? Yeah. They walked out. Juan's getting ready to.

He's getting the video queued up. They legit walked out. And I am really They all walked out. I feel like I'm watching a Kanye West fashion show when I look at it, though. They all walked out and.

They're helping with drinks. They were making drinks at this event. They danced to techno music. Did you witness some of the interactions of the bartender? Uh robots?

No. There was a human guy standing next to the guy that ordered the drink, and the human guy said to the robot, Hey, you may want to check his ID. The guy was clearly old enough, but. The robot stopped what it was doing, Asked for his ID, then the guy gave him a credit card, and the robot looked at it and said, wait, this isn't an ID. Hand me your ID, gave him the ID.

He looks at the ID, then looks up at the guy. Then looks back down at the ID and looks up at the guy, and he's like, Hmm, I don't know. Like, these are really human-like interactions that they're having with these roots. How do we know that they're actually like human? They're not humans in a robot suit.

They have to be really skinny humans.

Well, I mean, it I don't know. I the I'm torn because I They would be fun pets, but also no. Yeah. I don't know. Well I don't I'm really torn by this.

The reason that I bring this up And I don't want to just say because they said the optimum spots are going to be in people's houses. They can walk steadily on uneven terrain. They can lie solid day on a single battery charge. They can navigate around people and pets and This is crazy. I mean, it's the iRobot movie.

It is the iRobot. I mean, they look just like that. I don't know what I feel about this. Um I Can we start 'em off as like the people that give us food samples at like Costco and Sam's? Like we start off as just the robots that are like, Here's some, you know, breakfast sausage from the freezer section you could try while you're walking around shopping.

Like start something, start it off small like that. I know. I I look at this because I'm looking at all this stuff, and I'm looking at the robots, and then, of course, we had the rocket thing. Um Uh The super heavy. that just landed and I that was super impressive.

I don't know when Musk sleeps, but I do know the Democrats, I think, hate him. I've never seen anybody do everything that they can to trip up a dude who has done more. to help people. than any Democrat has. They don't like him because he is Not a Democrat.

I mean, they they put him in their anti-Trump ads. They put Musk in their anti-Trump ads. And I I'm just, it's crazy. They can't. recognize his accomplishments.

Like when Joe Biden Had all of these EV manufacturers, you know, especially they didn't invite Tesla. They didn't even include Tesla in anything. He's like A Tony Stark hit me he is Tony Stark. And hated. He's absolutely hated.

By the left. I I mean I don't know. He has revolutionized a number of industries, and I think he also stopped. The I Huge takeover of speech on in digital and the digital planes. That the left was undertaking.

I mean, he put a stop to it. They he didn't come out as like a conservative, they made him one. Because they persecuted him. Juan's showing you these robots. I am, dude, I don't know.

It could beat your ass. I just feel like I don't want anything that I can't eat. Why does it have to be that tall? Why does it have to be almost six foot tall? Why can't it be like Twee?

Maybe we could start a big Budang size. Start a business that gives you the equipment to be able to yeet one of these whenever necessary. Just as a response in the free market. No, I just want a short little robot. I don't want like a big thing that can kill me.

Right? I don't want that.

So, our robot yeater idea is not a great one. No, I just make them shorter and yeetable. Make them shorter. They don't need to be that tall. They can't do that much when they're that short.

Yeah, they can. Make them half that size. Make them three feet tall. They'd have to have like go-go gadget legs. No, no, no.

Make them three feet tall. I don't need them to do all that stuff.

So you want to make another version smaller, like a mini me. Yeah, like they do that with um Oh my gosh, what am I thinking of? What's the thing that makes you feel like you're exercising, but you're not? when you're standing on that thing, the segue. One of my favorite things ever.

I hate cardio. Like I'll only lift weights. Boom. I like to pretend sometimes that I do cardio and I'll get in my workout gear and I have a mini Segway that Chris got me from Mother's Day like years ago. It still works wonderfully.

I'll get in my workout gear and I'll just stand on my segue and that's my workout, like my cardio for the day, because I hate cardio. I hate cardio so bad, it's stupid. And that my cardio is just rest between sets. But that's and if you get in your workout gear and you stand on your segue, it's just like exercise. Not, but it feels like it is, right?

You just They're not that expensive. People think they're exorbitantly expensive. They're not. You can get like a mini one, and you get a little handle that you can just do, do, do, do. See, so if you can get a l a little one of that.

then you can get a little robot. Right? I see what you mean. Yeah. Like, I just want a little robot.

Like, not a big one. Give me a miniature one. I'll name it Tricky Woo. And that's. What we'll live as.

You'll name it what? Tricky Woo.

Okay. I've always wanted a little something to name that. It's like a name that I've been holding onto, because it's just goofy. And the little robot will be perfect. I don't want the big one because that's weird.

What if you're like sleeping at night and you wake up and it's standing at the foot of your bed with its blank face just gazing at you? It's weird. I don't like that. I don't want anything bigger than me. If I get one, I'm naming mine Johnny 5.

Well, that sounds like the name of something that could beat you up. Tricky Woo does not sound like the name of something that can beat you up. There's the difference. You see what I mean? See what I mean?

You insult it with the name, like right off the bat. Like, oh, that thing cannot get hurt. Did you hear what its name is? Golly, nothing named Tricky Woo is gonna hurt you. But if you name it Johnny 5, that thing will shive you.

For sure. Wow. You'll wake up with a pain in your stomach in bed and look up and one of your steak knives is in your guts. Courtesy of Johnny 5, your robot. I never took it that far.

Well, I think of all these things at night right before I go to bed, and my favorite thing to do is ask my husband about them after he's drifted off to sleep. This is how my mind works. Night time, day and I'll be like, What if? What if we get the robot but we have it? We make it Like 0.5 times the size instead of like one whole point.

What did that do? Can it still reach things on shelves? Like, I could, and if you're worried about you could make it lightweight, you could hold it up and it could reach it for you. Oh, I see. Yeah, see, you don't need something that's bigger than you that can murder you.

You just lift up Tricky Woo, boo-boop, and Tricky Woo will get it for you. And then you put it back down on the ground. Like emergency shutoffs for these things, right? Like just something. That doesn't work.

You don't think so? When has that ever worked? Like if it's about to work. I read a story over the weekend about a robot vacuum cleaner that got a woman's hair in it and and like ripped her hair out. Yeah.

It like vac I don't know what she was doing with her head on the ground, but it like vacuumed up her hair and her head, and she was like dying. Oh, not maybe not dying, but I would have been out of embarrassment, getting my ass kicked by a floor vacuum cleaner robot. But I don't know. I I These this is this is the stuff that keeps me up at night. I'll be going to bed.

I got my got my covers and I'm going to bed. I'm getting ready to drift off and I'm like What if? We got a robot. And it killed us. That's you know Because everybody has Alexas.

Right, that's what I was just about to say. I don't even get one of those either. An Alexa, a Hey Google, whatever the hell it is. I don't get any of those things. I'm curious as to how many in the listening audience have like Alexas and stuff.

I don't have that because I don't want the government. Oh, and by the way, Kathleen in the Rumble chat is reminding everyone about Chucky. Chucky was little. He was yetable. But he was also a demon.

So, like, I don't want. Tricky Woo wouldn't be a demon. It would just. You know, be a bot. But to your point, though, Kane, with Alexa and that, I don't understand the people who feel like they can accomplish more in a day just because they can go, Alexa.

Add, you know, something, whatever. Alexa, put nuts on the list. Alexa, add eggs to my list. I wonder how many people's Alexa's I'm setting off right now by the way. Stop doing that.

Alexa.

Okay. Yeah. Stop, Alexa, stop. Alexa, play two live crew. Oh, gosh.

Oh gosh. You see, I don't need that in my life.

Someone out there is losing it. I don't need that in my life. I don't need the list. I don't need my refrigerator to tweet. I don't need anything, you know, I just don't.

No. We are an indulgent society that creates problems for ourselves. And we are literally creating an army of things to come and kill us. Because we are so indulgent. We're like empires.

We're like a rotting empire, like how Rome, as everything was falling apart.

Well, at least they had the Coliseum, they had bread and circuses. You know, at least they had that. And we're We're like killing ourselves, and then we're making giant robots, and we're going to act shocked when they turn on us. I mean, literally, this is how Skynet comes about. I'm just saying.

I you know, we could we you know what we need? Universal translators. Yeah. That you can just like an earpiece you can wear and it works with your phone. You don't need a robot that can like make drinks.

I wouldn't want a robot that makes drinks. That's I why? I don't I don't need it to do tasks like that. You know, we need like a universal translator or Um Like something that makes people like good music and not listen to bad music. I don't know.

Just like, I'm just like, I don't know. I'm out of ideas. But the thing creeps me out. But anyway, my whole point, I brought this up because Elon Musk is like, you know, I mean, he's like a modern-day hero. He's Tony Stark, and Democrats hate him.

They absolutely hate him. They don't have anybody on the right that has accomplished this, that has done what he's done. He was asking, well, if if uh Kamala wins, how long's my jail sentence gonna be? I mean, I know people are like, ugh, but but it's it's true though. Right?

It's true. Goodness. Yeah. I don't know. I just, I don't want that big giant robot.

Is everybody gonna have bots? All my friends have Alexa, and then what is it? The. What is the other Alexa that's not Alexa? Whatever.

They all have this stuff, and they all talk about it in everyday conversations. Like, oh, yeah. And I said, you know, Alexa, I'm like, what? You said what to what? I don't have any of this.

I almost feel like I'm like little house on the prairie. When they talk about it, I feel like I'm going to go home and, you know, go to the creek and get my own water because I don't have Alexa. It's just weird, right? You feel like that? Yeah.

But then I remember I have an iPhone. Yeah, then I remember I'm not giving the feds a whole bunch of evidence. I mean, not that I'm doing anything bad in the first place, but you know. Anyway, we got a lot more on the way. And now, all of the news you would probably miss, it's time for Dana's Quick Five.

So first up This one. Air pollution is leading to a fall in IVF pregnancy rates, according to one.

Sorry, this is a study that they did. This is AJC, Atlanta Journal Constitution. They did it in Atlanta, Australia, and Europe, and they're saying that it's pollution's negative impact on fertility treatment. I don't, that seems like a stretch, but that's what they're reporting. I don't know.

I don't know if I put high ceilings in buildings are linked to poorer exam results for students. Of all the things It's the University of South Australia and Deakin University. They suggest that big and open rooms with high ceilings make it hard for students to focus on what is in front of them. They did a previous study on this, the same researchers, where they were looking at brain mapping and technology and virtual reality, and they found a relationship between cognitive ability and the perceived size of somebody's surroundings. And so they were looking at exams.

They looked at over 15,400 students. There may, I don't know, maybe, depending on the light or the acoustics of the room, I mean, maybe. But I also think that a lot of this is just self-discipline. And if you're doing poorly on an exam because you have high ceilings, then you have zero discipline and you have bigger issues, honestly. A woman tried to smuggle 29 turtles into Canada by crossing a Vermont lake.

She was trying to get around this. Didn't happen. Associated Press says that she pled guilty to trying to smuggle 29 different. these little turtles in. Her name is 41 year old Wan Yi Meeg.

She was arrested at an Airbnb and she was trying to get into an inflatable kayak with a duffel bag. Border Patrol caught her because it's not like, you know, somebody trying to cross the lake into the border on it with a giant duffel bags. They found 29 live Eastern box turtles wrapped in socks. They sell them on the Chinese black market for $1,000 each. That's crazy.

I'm glad that they got them because, goodness. We have Stephen Yates who's going to be joining us coming up. Stick with us. The Dana Show Podcast, your fast, funny, and informative news companion for those always on the move. Subscribe on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you at the bottom of this third hour. And I've been talking about a number of different issues. The election, the, of course, the Elon Musk being Really, a hero, and everybody hating him because he's not a leftist. But then, also, one of the things that was happening over the weekend, well, actually, it just wrapped up.

uh Chinese war games. Near to as a their testing. They were just doing their routine drills and things like that, right? That's all. And These drills that they were doing, which entirely were surrounding Taiwan, which is exactly what you would do if you're a bully.

You know, like, I'm gonna flex, I'm not touching you, I'm not touching you, but look at me doing this.

Well, they've concluded those. They were, I was looking at this piece from the BBC because China was like, well, it's a punishment for Taiwan. For, like, existing, you know, just separate of us. I don't know what. The new administration, whoever it will be, is going to have a handful.

Um not just with what's happening on the middle in the Middle East, but What's building and continuing to build here? This is something we always talk about because I think China is the biggest geopolitical foe we have, even though Kamala Harris said it was Iran. Joining us now, our good friend Stephen Yates, who is an expert on all of these issues, having previously served in not one, but two different presidential administrations, both the Trump administration and the Bush administration. He is with the Heritage Foundation, and he joins us now via Skype. And you can also follow him at YatesComs on X, Senior Research Fellow at the Heritage Foundation.

Stephen, good to see you. Harris said last week Iran was the biggest threat, not China.

Well, it obviously is a threat given what it's been doing to Israel, and that does affect American interests and an alliance that should matter a lot to us. But you and I have talked for well over a decade about the challenges that communist China presents and that it hits more fundamentally at more parts of America's way of life than any other challenge that comes from outside of our shores. And in recent years, it should not be forgotten that it affected every family with COVID and has affected hundreds of thousands of families with fatal fentanyl. That is much more than the Iranians or Russians have ever even tried on American soil. Not to say they're good.

It's just that it should be indisputable that the Chinese Communist Party is worse. Yeah, very much so. And I mean, look, we don't disagree with. Any uh a characterization of Iran as being dangerous, but In terms of scope and what they're able to do, I mean, China, as you said, has already inflicted so much more damage. And they've got their tentacles in everything.

This was a weird story, and I wanted to ask you about this, because one of the things that we've talked about before has been, it's been, you know, China trying to increase its presence, whether it's in South America or even the Caribbean. And you and I were actually talking about. Sidebar, I'm going to get to the point of this story, but I got to tell you this, though, Stephen, you're going to appreciate this. You're the only person who would appreciate this story.

So, when we were on summer vacation, we had a layover in Nassau. And it happened to be literally the day that Trump, the first that he was shot in the head. It was the day he was shot. I land, my phone's going crazy. We had flight cancellations and all this stuff happening.

And the airline wanted to put us in this hotel that I thought sounded familiar. And it was from a conversation that you and I had months prior where you were explaining how one of the biggest pieces of property, if not the biggest, in the Bahamas, is the CCP's embassy. And as it turned out, the hotel that the airlines was going to put us in to keep us overnight was a hotel that was owned by the CCP. How convinced. In Nassau.

And you know me. I had all of Cain's tinfoil with me. And I'm going, what? You know, the day that Trump shot and they're going to put us in a CCP hotel, this is not happening. We didn't stay there, obviously.

But I thought you would appreciate that. And I was, it was something like the British Colonial or something colonial hotel in NASA, and it's owned by the CCP. And I'm immediately like, you know, I. I wanted to tell everybody who was getting, who was getting referred there, don't stay. In fact, I did tell like three people.

That's a Marxist house. That's a commies hot. That's a commie hotel. Who knows? I mean, I wouldn't have trusted it.

I have another story, but I had to share that with you because I have not told you that yet.

Well, I just wish you would have run around shouting Taiwan independence the whole time you were in the halls there.

So it just overloaded their sound system with freak outs. I should have. I should have gone ahead and made it. They'd have probably like thrown me into some like jail cell bunker down there. Let someone test the soup first.

Right? I know. I was like, I'm not going to stay. That's crazy. Now, another country in the Caribbean, Barbados.

So they've kind of had sort of a falling out with Britain in terms of the Commonwealth, and they got rid of the Queen and all that stuff. But they're now cozying up to the Chinese.

So they get rid of their relationship with Britain. And now they've demanded all these reparations, like, you know, trillions of dollars reparations.

Now they're really cozying up with China. And I just thought it was interesting that they had a peaceful relationship. They had great trade. They had protection from Britain.

Now they're rejecting everything. And they're now very close to the CCP, who now has a bigger footprint in the Caribbean because of this. Yeah, well, it is something that's been an encroachment in our near abroad, influence in our hemisphere. It's gone on for some time, but it's really amped up. And the part that grosses me out the most is not that the Chinese would try to do this.

I expect competitors and worse to take advantage where it's left to them, but they're using our own money to do it. It's Americans who have had unfavorable and silly economic relations with the Chinese Communist Party that's flooded them with money that they now use to buy influence against us in our own near abroad.

So it's clearly a trend that we could stop if we were smart, but we haven't been very smart for a very, very long time. And it's going to take a bit to change.

Now, for the people that are buying what the CCP is selling, Hopefully, they're doing a little bit of research. Even Wall Street people who used to be very bullish about things China heavily invested, all of that, they've been pulling back, hedging at the very least, in some cases, much, much more. And so, these new entrants into this, thinking they're getting a sweet deal, they might want to talk to a few Chinese people in China because not every shiny object is what it appears there. And the Chinese people know it more than anyone else. Yeah, they absolutely do.

Talking with our friend Stephen Yates at Yates Comms on X. I know everybody's kind of holding their breath for November. What is China looking for? In November. I mean, I would imagine that they have Plan A and Plan B, depending on what administration is elected.

What are you forecasting for November in terms of China's reaction?

Well, I know some of the people who are part of the senior levels of national security and foreign policy in the Biden administration because they've been around Biden for a long time and they were in the Obama administration under Secretary Clinton and Secretary Kerry.

So these are, as Don Rumsfeld might call, no knowns. But Harris doesn't have. A loyal entourage. And so it's very, very unclear whether some of these people would do the same, but a lot of them have said that they're heading for the exits. And I, you know, part of this is the legit, you get tired of four years working these kinds of jobs.

I served for five years in a White House and I felt like I lost 20 years of my life doing it. But so there's some part of it that you can understand, but you also kind of get the sense. A, these folks don't think she's going to win, and they're going to cash out now. And B, there's going to be a changeover, and we're not going to know who some of these folks are, but that's some kind of system. Is going to continue the soft approach to all of our challenges, prioritizing climate change and imposing peace deals on our allies who get attacked by bad guys.

And so, more of the same in a way. And if Trump comes back, I expect he is going to come back. There's going to be, I think, a revival of deterrence. But there'll be some forms of engagement to try to sue for peace in different areas. It's not going to be easy to understand or perfect by any means, but I think it will be more unpredictable for our adversaries.

And for smart allies, it'll be much more predictable.

So I think that we need. This election to go in the direction of going back to where things were pre-COVID and picking up where that left off. Uh and with Harris Nobody really knows what we're going to get out of her other than more of the same. It's not going to be the very pro-CCP vice presidential nominee charting a new course. And maybe if she sits down with Brett Baer this week and all of a sudden answers questions, Which would be borderline unprecedented for the last four years, we're not going to get to know.

Yeah. I would imagine, too, that some of the individuals that have been working on behalf of the United States against. These CC expanding CCP interests would be weirded out by someone like Tim Walls. With his connections to the Communist Chinese Party. I don't think that he is.

A willful plant. I think he's a moron who was exploited and used. And they thought that they could impress good manners on him and show him how nice they are. And he bought into it, hook, line, and sinker because he's a moron. And he became a useful idiot.

For them, I think that's maybe the extent of it. Although, I don't know, he seems a lot more insidious, though, than you know, at first look. What are your thoughts on that?

Well, I mean, we've had quite the debate as a country about a new definition of masculinity and some notion of toxic masculinity. What I can say is, whatever anyone's view is on that subject, I can promise you that the bad guys around the world are not deterred by jazz hands and a guy who can't reload a shotgun.

So we have got to have some good old-fashioned John Wayne back in the saddle if we're going to right this ship. People need to fear what the United States must do to them if they're an adversary, and they must trust the United States will be the backup when necessary. They have lost that over the last four years and badly need that back if we don't want more of these problems on our own shores. No, I completely agree with that.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. Harris is trying to say that Trump is the one. That's not going out and engaging with voters. Audio sum by 13.

This is so goofy. Like, this is they're. I know what they're doing. They're trying to, like, well, we're going to say what they've been saying about us, and we're going to accuse them of it. That's not.

That's not how this works. Listen. He is unwilling to do a 60 minutes interview. Like every other major party candidate has done for more than half a century. He is unwilling.

to meet for a second debate. And here's the thing. Here's the thing, it makes you wonder. It makes you wonder, why does his staff want him to hide away? She is hurting.

She's begging for a debate. There's like two rallys. Yeah, he's like he doesn't need the debate. You do. He doesn't need it.

You need it. Oh so See, I'm telling you. The internals that were released and some of this other stuff. She ain't doing so good. This is not going to help.

I mean, first off, Trump is. very competitive with black men. Uh he's competitive with Uh What is it? Valued 18 to 54 demo. He's in fact very competitive.

The trend line was 18 to 44 from Obama to Harris. Obama was plus eighty one, Hillary was only plus sixty three. Biden was plus fifty-three. Harris? is only plus 41.

Democrats have lost 40 points since 2012. And it's not just a problem with Harris. It's a problem with Democrats. There's a trend of black voters leaving Democrats, Hispanic voters leaving Democrats. And She has always been.

A week. candidate for her base. She was this is I mean the same thing that we saw with her in 2020. I don't know why people think that that's going to change, why that would have changed, but It's it hasn't. They're not doing well, and that's why she needs this debate.

She needs the debate. They don't.

Well, she says this: I'll do somebody at 11. This is how she brushes it off. This is how she brushes this off. Listen. They've already started with the misinformation and the lies.

We know that there is foreign interference, and I have to say to everybody listening to this. Don't let them Take your voice. Because I was part of the Senate Intelligence Committee when we investigated Russia's interference in the 2016 election. Black folks were targeted. Oh my god, this is so lame.

Yeah, she targeted black clothes. This is so lame.

So she's she's I I don't know this is her this is desperation by her. It is it's It is desperation by her. She needs a debate so bad. And I actually, Trump doesn't need it at this point. Especially the worst thing he could do.

is is is have another debate performance like he had with her the first time. The only reason that she is competitive is because she was able to successfully bait him last debate. That's the only reason I think she's still competitive now. She cannot, but she has to have another debate. That one is not enough to put her over.

It's just not. I I don't know. It's not looking good for her. And particularly in battleground states, and the fact that they're having to now double back. and try to bring Pennsylvania in.

It just it looks like really, really bad strategy. on their part, they really messed up. They added somebody on to that ticket. That was a drag. And now they're paying the cost for it.

They're paying for it now. Waltz was a drag. And they can try to rehabilitate him. They can try to act like he's a coach, which he wasn't. They can try to act like all this stuff, like he's, you know, he's the goofy dad.

They can do all this. They can try to act like he's a gun guy. He's not. It none of it's working. because he hasn't they haven't put him through charm school.

He's just not ready for prime time. Today's stupidity came. What's we got? Boy, did I have a surplus to choose from. And several of them are from Kamala, so we're going to focus on her.

So, this was over the weekend. She was doing another. Recorded interview, and this after editing is what they put out there. Listen to this, cut nine. because of what we see.

It's so hard to see. That we lose faith. or a vision of those things we cannot see but must know. What? What?

We might let's play that one more time, Juan, just because I've got to hear it. Because what we see. It's so hard to see. That we lose faith. or a vision of those things we cannot see but must know.

Oh man. What? Context wouldn't even fix that.

So weird. And that's just one example over the weekend. You can simply just go online and see the rest. You know how terrified she was at that last debate? The fact that she's begging for another one shows you how much she is hurting.

I'll have some of that for you if you sign up over at Substack, Chapter and Verse. I've got a compilation of stuff, surveys, polling that you want to read. Make sure I'll be on Fox tonight, Laura Ingram Show. Have a great night. Back with you tomorrow.
