The stuff that happens on break is insane. All right, let's see here. So, okay, let me look at the Trump banner one.

This guy, I've read, I think I've read something similar. There was a guy who painted his house an American flag. He was mad. This guy is, it's a 30A house. And he has giant Trump banners. One of them is Trump pointing. It's his job.

I mean, it goes like three levels. And he's going, who's your daddy? Seagrove Beach. It's a house along the coast. The homeowner would not take down his banners. And so he got hit with $63,000 in fines. And so he draped a new one over the balcony that said Trump coming home. I mean, they're three stories long. So it's a big banner, just so you know that.

Like it's the size of an office building. He's displayed various Trump banners since 2020. He had one that says Trump coming home 2025.

That was the latest one. And he took a picture of in front of his house in a Stars and Stripes jacket that says Trump on it. Is he dancing or posing?

I don't know. And he's in front of his banners. One of them says bulletproof.

The other says who's your daddy? And the other says Trump coming home 2025. And he says he's not taking them down. So they, it's Walton County code compliance. They're saying that his banners are violating the scenic quarter code 1605.

And it enforces a fee of $50 per day for every day a banner is hung. He said these things up for 42 months. He says he's that it's protected by the First Amendment.

And he's he goes, I've got great lawyers. I think he does. Like the guy is in front of a three story house. Yeah, no, technically for if you count the ground level. That's crazy.

I don't even know what kind of steel had to go into building that house on the coast. But I'm thinking he's probably got the resources to fight, fight his case, right? I feel like he's got the resources to do so just, you know, so it seems that way. Let's see, I got a couple.

Oh, yeah. So this guy, Grady Judd said that this Florida man should have hid his cocaine before calling the deputies. A Florida man and a teenager were arrested in frostproof, which is the actual name of a town and I could not love it anymore. Polk County Sheriff said that a group of juveniles had been aggravating and harassing 54 year old Everett Brown. And he said that a 14 year old kicked in Brown's door and hit him with a red broom handle and burglary and battery felonies. But then while the deputies were processing the scene, Brown had left his cocaine all out on the table and counter. And he said, well, he forgot to hide his cocaine before he called for us to come and investigate the crime. So then he also went to jail for possession of cocaine and paraphernalia.

The other kids went to jail for burglary and battery. The P-15, it stands for 15 pews. And with Kel-Tec, it's great, a great nine millimeter.

Find us on Facebook. You guys know too, one of the biggest issues that I push for is Second Amendment issues. Second Amendment issues. And of course, a lot of stuff has been wrapping up in 2A issues, 4A, 5A issues as well. And one of the cases that we have followed quite extensively has been that of Dexter Taylor. And I've written about this a lot. The Dexter Taylor case in New York. And if you're unfamiliar with him, you know, he's a hobbyist. He has no record. He's just kind of a brainiac engineer dude.

That's kind of how that's how he is. And he always he'd as a hobby, had engaged in the completely legal practice of building his own firearms that he never even fired. By the way, the first time they were fired is after his home was raided and the ATF and FBI and everybody seized everything. But it was completely legal and the New York starts passing all these gun laws.

And then they make felons out of innocent people in a very, very unjust trial. Dexter Taylor, aka Carbon Mike was sent to prison. That is where he is now. And that is from where he joins us on the phone. Dexter Taylor, aka Carbon Mike joins us from prison on the phone.

And he is still fighting the good fight. My friend, how are you? How are you doing? I'm very good, my sister. How are you doing? Well, I would be a heck of a lot better if you got a pardon from the president elect.

And maybe that's something that could happen if they get familiar with your case. But you've been fighting the good fight. And tell me, I mean, I know you got to go through the appeals process. Where does all that stand right now? Well, our, our process is kind of at a standstill until we raise some more money to pay my legal team to actually draft the appeal, file it and get us on the docket.

So that's where we are now. The situation was complicated by the fact that as you know, because I'm a quote unquote, violent felon, because I owned and kept firearms inside my own house, right? I couldn't get bail after the verdict. So after the verdict, that wasn't right to reconcile and stay there until sentencing and then sometime after that, I was going to the state system when I moved from like to the state system.

I will have a process called transit and the incoming product, you can call your people know who you are. So a lot of the stuff I was doing, like, you know, doing talks with people, like before I referenced him, so I couldn't do any of that stuff. So our PR effort kind of fell off in the last month or so, we've just made a concerted effort to now kind of reignite that PR PR effort, and you know, get back out there and and hit the circuit, so to speak, and remind people of what's going on.

Yeah. And we're talking with our friend Dexter Taylor, who is a he's a to a natural rights icon. He's in prison. He wouldn't take he wouldn't cut a deal. He was he's unfairly unjustly targeted, because he was a hobbyist, built his own firearms, which is a perfectly legal thing to do, except New York decided to change their law.

And then they made felons out of completely innocent people with zero record at all whatsoever. And I know we're going to talk coming up about the Gibson go and all of that. But what would you have? What would you have to people know right now? What do you need people to do? What would you have them know right now to help you?

That's a good question. I would have them know more or less what you said that that not only do I have a clean criminal record, did I have a clean a clean criminal record before I was rated? No one was I a member in good standing of my local gun range. I was a 30 slot veteran, a veteran of the software industry, a father, productive citizen, a good neighbor.

In my politics, I've been doing conservative politics online since about 2015. Nothing in my politics would mark me out as someone who is at the average show on the street might say, Are you sure that guy should have weapons? Nothing. So I encourage people to kind of follow their skepticism. There's a lot of people who understand will hear about this case and say, there has to be something else, right?

There have to be some reason why they went after this guy, go ahead and run down all those angles. And when you're done with that, what I'm hoping people will do is, you know, contributing in whatever way they see fit. They can send prayers, they can send readings, they can send more support. And of course, they can send money through My Gifts and Go to help to help bump up our legal fund. But that's and the other thing people can do, by the way, the thing I would ask people to do if they can, is spread the word. New York Democrats have been able to get away with this kind of thing for years because they think no one cares because they think they will not pay any political price for violating people's Second Amendment rights. And we aim to show differently. So for example, Eric Gonzalez, the Brooklyn DA said publicly, he was going to make an example of me. I want to help him.

I think I should help him. I think that that we should have more people around the United States understanding this is how Democrats quote unquote care about us. This is how Democrats quote unquote care about the city. This is how Democrats quote unquote care about black people. Like, I want everyone to know what a great thing Eric Gonzalez did when he decided that he did not care what the Supreme Court said in 2022.

So yeah, sunlight, death disinfectant. There you go. Do you do you think would you I mean, obviously, and I hope that this gets up to President Alex Ayers, a pardon could solve this, couldn't it? Well, I'll take a pardon. If it has no conditions on it, right?

There's no Well, you can't talk about it. You can't sue New York, any of that. But but a pardon wouldn't solve it. Because what really has to happen is the laws in New York have to change. In other words, these laws, remember, are unconstitutional. So this is not put me aside for a second.

This is not just about me. This is one state in the union running wild. And I just want to also point out to people that I caught no federal heat on this case, right?

ATSC, so wild. Yeah, because it's legal federally. Right? Well, that's right. So you know, ATF drove the search warrant and was there to kind of check their work.

But other than that, they disappeared. We haven't heard from them that you know, if I've been doing anything really out of order, ATF would have been all over me like Hunter Biden on a coke line. So, you know, it's it's, this is entirely. This is entirely New York State being out of line. And so that's that yeah, that is all part of it would help.

But ultimately, what has to happen is the law has to change because I don't want them doing this to other people. And also, you know, I'm, I'm, I'm interested in the firearms industry. Your husband, Chris knows that I have a deep interest in firearms. And so I don't have a deep interest in weapons science.

I prototyped one of the things one of the systems he and I discussed Osiris, the open shot registration system on Kyle Sarafin's podcast. You know, people need to know that, that this is an American industry, this is an American tradition. And if people are saying, well, there's people out there shooting the place up, well, by all means, go run down the people who are shooting the place up. And while you're at it, you know, we can also have a discussion about the manifest failure of a decades long liberal experiment to replace families with fathers with the state. And then standing back and wondering why we have so much violence in the streets. Why do we have so much violence in the schools? Well, it's a good question. But it's a very good question. But the answer can't be going after a law abiding citizen and saying that, that he can't quietly privately keep and bear arms in his own home.

That can't be right. And so that's what we're fighting. And I love your point on your that you made on this talking with Dexter Taylor, aka Carbon Mike, who is unjustly incarcerated for a I mean, really a brand new crime that New York decided to fabricate out of the ether. I like the point that you made X about, you know, you could get a pardon and that could, you know, that could get you back with your family. But that law would still exist in New York. And who's and you would have to leave New York if you wanted to continue your hobby at that point. That's correct. I mean, what's funny is I was planning I was planning to, you know, once I once I got all the information, I will subscribe to a service run by I think it's run by Ryan clicker, ex military guy, he has a thing called rocket FFL.

So I signed up for rocket FFL again, before I was rated, I was studying how to, you know, what I'd need to file to get an FFL. And I was thinking about, you know, my gun lab in the woods of New Hampshire, because I have some, you know, family connections to New Hampshire. But um, but yes, it would be awfully nice if New York would get in line and and stop violating people's civil rights. And that's the other thing. Go ahead.

No, go on, go on. Yeah, I was gonna say, yeah, I was gonna say, you know, a lot of the people wanted to touch on this, that, you know, a lot of people who's who claim to be pro civil rights who claim to be pro black, you know, it's like a lot of this, you know, people always tell me about Harriet Tubman. People forget that Harriet Tubman was packing. Everybody wants to tell me about Martin Luther King people forget that that the state houses Martin Luther King stayed at were arsenals.

People forget that the civil rights movement was armed to the teeth, actually, because what they rejected was political violence, and correctly so, but they were stupid. And so, you know, the other thing I would say, then it's like, don't don't get in my face and and tell me about how you've got to change all the rules. You've got to you've got to indoctrinate my kid with all this nonsense in school because murderers, law supremacists are everywhere. And in the other breath, you say, well, you're willing to defy the law of the land to disarm me.

That does not make sense. Something has to get somebody's lying about something. So we've got to have that out. That's absolutely right. Talking with our friend Dexter Taylor, aka Carbon Mike, a hobbyist who built firearms in his home, perfectly legal thing. And in New York changed their law to make a felon out of them. And that's the other important part of this case is that what he's doing, you heard Dec say, the feds didn't get on him. It was the New York State because federally, it's allowed.

And at some point, Dexter, do you think that that I mean, that feels like that's got to get settled at a higher level. And I know that this is going to go through the appeal process because it's protected. It's already I mean, it's it's confidence protected federal activity. They're very clear about it. So you have the state law, which is in direct contribution with federal law, that's got to get resolved.

That's right. That's got to get resolved. It's important to note that one of the good news, because I've been doing a little bit of legal research since I've been inside the good news is that federal appeals courts now have started throwing out gun indictments left and right.

I mean, they've been tossing them out left and right, because they accept and not just tossing them but tossing them on ground grounds, right. So that's a very good thing. The liberal judges we happen to have in New York State in the state appeals court system are still kind of on that thing of pretending they can't read. But, but we like our chances in the federal system for just that reason. If the Supreme Court, excuse me, if the Second Amendment protects any right, is the right to keep and bear on in your house?

I heard my mom played for me some of the segments that CBS ran on my case. And they included, as I figured they would, you know, one of the someone, I guess, supposed to take the opposite side, some professor somewhere who said, well, the Second Amendment, the right to keep an arm is not an unlimited right. And, you know, I thought about that it's worth addressing, even though it's not very well thought out. We're not talking about an edge case here, right? In other words, if I've been brandishing a pistol at the mall, or if I've been, you know, walking down Broadway with a slung AR, or if I've been pulling a howitzer through Central Park, then you might talk about, well, that's that's a bit excessive, but this is my house.

Okay. So, um, all that all that noise you hear about a former liberal brother about the Second Amendment not being a suicide and I thought, well, I agree, nobody was talking about suicide. We were all kind of minding our business until they decided to break my door down. So now we're going to have this legal fight. And I think the best thing we can do is escalate that legal fight into a political fight as well. It is time for these democrats and local and state governments to start paying a political price for stopping all over the constitutional rights, the civil rights, because that's what they are, of the people who they're supposed to be working for.

Amen to that. They have they have Dexter in there with rapists and murderers. And he is an innocent man, truly innocent man, who did nothing but a federally protected hobby that New York only recently decided to take issue with. And they've taken him from his kids, they took him from his life, his home.

They've got him locked up in there. And you want to talk about injustice, that's injustice. And it's got to get changed. Dex, I want to make sure that you need anything, my friend, you please let us know. And we're going to try to do everything that we can here to keep the fire on this and to help meet these costs so that you can get this you can fight this and get this overturned.

And then we can and then we can get New York's laws overturned because nobody should have to go through this for a federally protected, constitutionally affirmed natural right. God bless you, my friend. You're going through the wringer for a lot of people who don't know it or appreciate it, but we sure do.

It's time for Dana's quick five. CNN is trying to make a light out of something that's trash. They say American's debt is growing, but hey guys, so are the incomes.

No, they're not. I mean, depending on what sector you're looking at, especially if it's government jobs, they're doing great. But the average everyday person who's not a government worker, not so much. US household debt moved up for a record total of $1794 trillion. As of, this was back in September, balances grew across all major debt categories. Credit cards, auto loans, the biggest gains. But they said that AfterTech's income has grown. Well, again, look at what sector.

Delinquencies are still on the rise. So why are why are they trying to like blow this up and act like this is a good thing? It's not. It is not.

Good heavens. Builders have 108,000 unsold homes. Good luck trying to buy one because throwing down for a starter home they say is 45% more expensive than renting a far wider gap than the historical average of just about 15%. I mean, when I was we were first starting out back in like 2000 2001. It was Yeah, it was a lot easier. It was like a lot more affordable to buy a house. It was better than renting because of equity and everything else.

Now you can't really say the same and it was really hard for people really hard for people. Oh, this is crazy. A popular pet was served as a delicacy in New York. I don't know what this is. This is horrible.

There. It's the special Ecuadorian delicacy. It's a guinea pig. And they said that they're very delicious. And you can go to this restaurant in New York.

I'm not giving them free advertising. And it's called. It's like basically guinea pig house. Yeah, and you eat guinea pig. Is it like a pig? It's a rat. So I don't know why it would be like a pig. I mean, unless it oinks and you know, it's got a corkscrew tail. But importing them into bulk is no they said snow cakewalk they have to get them flown and frozen from a small farm in Ecuador.

And they go it's difficult because we use a lot. I don't even know what to know what that tastes like. Let's see this mark. Why?

Why? Mark Zuckerberg dropped a single with T-Pain. Yeah, it's basically the song get low and they redid it.

And I am not even I cannot believe he sings the lyrics that he sings. What? I'm not saying any of this.

Moving on to the next one. Don't Google it. Don't do it. Don't do it yourself. Don't do it.

Don't do it. And then apparently I got time for one more. Oh, the onion bought info wars. They're losing their mind. They are losing their minds.

Did you see this? For instance, the snow white chick. This Rachel Ziegler guy is the most annoying theater kid I've ever seen in my life. I don't like her. I she's like she's ran her mouth enough where I'm pretty sure I don't like her as a person.

Which is sad. I don't like being like that, but that's the truth of it. She went into the social media meltdown after the election and she posted all this stuff. She says, I'm speechless.

Another four years of hatred leaning us towards a world I don't want to live in. She doesn't even she doesn't have a kid. She's like, it'll be hard to raise my daughter in a world that will force her to have a baby she doesn't want.

Are you like, what is your damage? What is what is wrong with you? They're just going to what are you saying? The government's going to rape her and make her have a baby?

Is that what you're saying? Leaning us towards a world that's fearful. She is not a mother and she just is speaking of a hypothetical daughter that she doesn't have. And then she just kept going on and on. And then she went on and said that she she wants basically bad stuff to happen to people. She hopes Trump supporters never know peace is what she said. And her Twitter and her Instagram rant. Newsflash to Rachel Ziegler. I've noticed that there are not four media outlets that can correctly spell your name in any given time. No one can tell you anybody else what the hell you've ever been in. So maybe you should have more of a career before you start running your mouth and ruining what you've built.

Now. You don't you're not Meryl Streep. You don't have a Meryl Streep foundation to run your mouth on.

You don't have a Clint Eastwood body of work to run your mouth on. You haven't proven your capabilities enough that people will can can say, Oh, well, she's nuts about politics, but at least she's a good actress. Because I don't even think that she's got a film coming out with Disney Snow White, which she has been a nightmare for.

They've already had to go back. Remember all the stuff that she said previously where she was blasting Prince Charming and she went on this feminist rant and people were like scratching even moderates were scratching their heads like, Why is she doing this? Is she wanting this movie to fail? And then she says, I hope they I hope they never know peace.

She says, may Trump supporters and Trump himself never know peace is what she said on Instagram. Maybe she feels like that in her life. I kind of get the sense that she feels like her career is stalling out. And she's got to do this political stuff to clot more attention.

And at the same time, it's one bird or two birds, one stone. She can claw for more attention by saying stupid political stuff while also taking out her rage against people because she's mad that her career stone because I don't know what the hell she's been into. She was in that West Side Story remake and she was the worst part of it. And then what this I don't know what else she's been in. There are other actresses her age that are doing laps around her in terms of work and accolades. And all she's doing is bitching on Instagram. And saying this kind of stuff.

I mean, maybe you should focus on your movie. You know that because right as it is right now they already had to take it back because that that's the Snow White film that got into a lot of trouble with the little people, the dwarves, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, because the king little person guy played Tyrion Lannister. What's his name? He's the king of all little people apparently. Which made all the other little people actors very upset because he acted like he was the valedictorian of all of them and the union president of all of them. And he went out and said, Oh, my gosh, can you believe that they have, you know, a little like dwarves in a movie? I mean, it was called Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, but whatever. I mean, I guess it should have been, you know, Snow White and the, you know, seven ambiguously gendered hobos. I don't know. So this movie has just like run into controversy after controversy after controversy after controversy.

It is really annoying. At least what's her face? Jenna Ortega doesn't go this hard. Jenna Ortega at least knows when to like to shut up to not burn her audience. This chick doesn't. I think she wants to be Jenna Ortega.

I don't know. I just can't stand this stuff. Somebody and her management needs to tell her it's not a wise career move to do things like this. They fire Gina Carano for less. Gina Carano said something entirely accurate on Instagram about fascism and Disney lost their mind.

All the woke scolds lost their mind and they fired her. This chick is literally wishing harm on Trump supporters and it's crickets. Crickets. Now that's that's pretty unbelievable.

So you tell me who's the bigot. Good grief. I don't know. These people are damaged.

They're just damaged. I don't know. Thanks for tuning into today's edition of Dana Lash's Absurd Truth podcast.
