Dana Lashes of Sir Truth Podcast sponsored by Kel-Tec. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida Man.

Fort Myers, Lee County Sheriff's Office. An argument over a wrong way driving landed one man in jail and another left with life non life threatening injuries. Rolando Ruiz Alonzo.

Too many names Rolando. He was the primary aggressor in the altercation. And according to police, the old dude began swinging a was it a saw or not a saw like tool toward a victim as the argument escalated. And the victim was struck and then he also used a piece of ceramic pottery as a weapon. He was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.

I guess he I mean, he was driving the wrong way and got called that I don't know. But good heavens, like there's how many people have saws and machetes there. Like it's like people just go to their trucks and get them. Here's our here's my machete. Okay, here's my saw. A Florida man who was accused of murder was captured after tik tok revealed his whereabouts.

People over share. He shot and killed his girlfriend in front of her two children while they were at a cemetery of all places. St. Petersburg where the police were searching for him for three and a half years, no success.

And then a video of a local news story was shared on tik tok. He was in Mexico, and it showed him in Mexico. And they were able to get him so now he's been charged with first degree murder and two counts of child abuse. Somebody they just happened to get him. So wow, they just happened to see him in the background of this news story.

He was in Mexico, not really hiding out too well, I guess. A few I got to tell you. And we're we've been watching all of this stuff.

As it pertains to the we were talking about Doge a little bit ago and a lot of these cabinet picks, etc, etc. And I saw I had I saw this story last night. And I'm trying to wrap my mind around it. And I got aggravated. I always get mad at people who like think that politics politics began the day that they signed up for an ex account, because some of us have been out here busting ratable snakes for quite some time pushing back against rhinoism, right?

And you always get these like drivebys who were like, Oh, I can't believe you people think that Republicans are, you know, like, the party of small government or whatever. And I'm like, you know, broad first off, you know, drop the drunk bridesmaid act. I get that you you know, when you created your ex account, you think that all politics began that the day that you became self aware, but some of us have been out here doing the heavy lifting while you could sit here and go and get your overfilled face done.

And you're ready as extensions. And you try to like, talk platitudes about it on x stop, I get so aggravated over this stuff. Stop it. A lot of people out there have been doing the heavy lifting. A lot of you out there have been doing the heavy lifting, pushing back calling your lawmakers holding everybody accountable. And we're not going to be judged by people who just opened a drive by account and all of a sudden want to weigh in like, you know, they're the generals of the movement.

Stop it, we're not doing it. And I specifically got aggravated over this one post that I saw from Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick of Texas. So he posted this.

Did you see this King? This is going to be up your alley. It's in slack. He said, it's a major legislative initiative to ban all THC. Thousands of stores have opened to sell all types of dangerous products with unlimited THC and these stores even target your children is what he's saying. Let me read it first off. Oh, don't roll your eyes.

I don't care if you're I'm not Tommy Chong. Okay. See it. That's what this is about. Today. It's about whatever the hell THC. Tomorrow, it's guns. You don't know. So he had this he wants to ban all THC.

Thousands of stores have opened to sell all types of dangerous products. What? Wait, there's more.

He's talking about this. I'm sorry. Excuse me.

Okay. Again, I'm no Tommy Chong here. But I'm pretty sure that you would have to have all the THC on earth in order for it to be considered dangerous.

Am I correct? I was talking to some of my more pot minded associates about this. Some of these.

So yes, maybe we know people in California. I don't partake in any of this. But they get so into the like, what am I thinking of the artisanal marijuana? It is hysterical. How it is not a reality show. I do not know. If you've ever tried to see hippies turn into bougie entrepreneurs, it's the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life.

God love it. But anyway, um, Cain, don't they have like, they only don't they include like a tiny amount? And I don't I mean, it's not like they're tripping acid. It's limited. It's definitely limited. There's only so much I mean, you can regulate it. From what I understand.

It's already Texas law that it's regulated is regulated. So that's a lie. Dave Patrick published a lie. He's talking about I'm so surprised. He's talking about the THC that they've in the lab removed a molecule so that it isn't the illegal THC nine on the federal level. So he's talking about the THC that have had the molecules removed so that they're a different THC from the THC and he's saying that those are dangerous. So it's a little bit different because this is sort of a laboratory thing that's created for these vapes and the in the consumption for people.

So I don't know, he's he's technically not lying, though. I don't want to sound like Joe Rogan talking about this stuff. That's not an insult, but I just not a pot person. I'm not I'm not but I just am like this is big government. This is big government. Without a doubt it is. Oh, without a doubt it absolutely. So the same government that was like, y'all better get these shots now was like, No, you can't have gummies, right?

Same same people, right? And we are to listen to them. Why? I can't sell you on that.

No means no Texas government. So AOC says, I mean, okay, you because you guys think it's funny that I know so little about football. Wait until you hear me talk about marijuana.

This is Cain's other favorites. Because I told what did I tell you yesterday? I was what?

How did I say yesterday? I was like, Well, doesn't teach you didn't doesn't that just make you like fat because of munchies and suspicious? Yeah. And you're like, No, that's not really that.

That's what you said. Yeah, it doesn't just make you suspicious and fat. Yeah.

I'm like, What? What do you mean paranoid? Yes. Get the munchies.

Yes. Because isn't that like the common thing is like, you're always paranoid. And so we there are a couple of people I know who actually work in this industry, like I was saying, and both of them are veterans. And one of them we just met, but we know somebody that does this. It's like a lot of veterans use it, especially to help manage PTSD, because they don't want to be hooked on big pharma stuff.

They don't want to have to take like these, you know, psychotropic drugs and all of this and they just need, you know, and it helps them to relax at night or whatever. I don't have any problem with that. I don't know why anybody mind your business.

I don't I mean, for crying out loud at the gummy, and they feel it from what I understand, like a tiny percentage of whatever in it. It's not like people are going out there, you know, tripping beans and and acting like beta or work breaking and entering and drunk driving. Nobody's doing that. I know. And it's this kind of work by the government that actually has us putting our names on lists when we want to get Sudafed for nose running or something.

Yeah, that's the that's what big government this is what will end up happening. Someone was saying that it was similar to taking melatonin. Sometimes I'll take 20 of melatonin. I'm actually trying to take less because I get so groggy. I'm so groggy in the morning. But I take 10 milligrams of melatonin a night. I'm definitely not out there being dangerous on 10 milligrams of melatonin.

If it's if if what I have been told and what I've read that it is similar in terms of like relaxing you, which is why a lot of veterans take it and they take it. No, I don't. Okay, I don't get suspicious and fat. No, that's because it doesn't have the pot in it.

It's not just melatonin, like the fast dissolved melatonin tablet. Right? I mean, I'm just saying why? Why is this an issue that they're focusing on in Texas?

No, I get that people can walk and chew gum at the same time. But out of nowhere, let's go after the THC. And from and from what I'm understanding, it's a tiny I don't want the government involved in anything else. Get No, Texas should be shrinking government, not expanding it.

This is just big government. And I don't care if you're a pot person or not. Doesn't matter. It's irrelevant. I mean, this is a variable.

What have I always told you? In all of these instances, guns are a variable. Pot is a variable. Look at all of this. It's the same formula.

They just switch out the variables. That's it. That's it. Right. I wonder if this is just Texas's response to that potential. I have no idea, though.

I don't think so. That's not how I look at it. I mean, I mean, if I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I mean, I like being I like being correct on issues.

I'm not, you know, I'm not a petty partisan. But I to me from when I was reading this, like, why do you need to ban it? They're not trying to they just want to ban everything.

Why would do why do you need to ban it? And sorry, they're not targeting the kids. They're not that such. That's like that sounds like a gun.

Grabber argument. Oh, you're marketing these guns to kids. No one is selling THC to kids. Have you seen these stores? No offense to anyone, but I'm going to be very honest. Okay, you know what they look like? Do you want to you know what they look like? They look like Oh, gosh, you're gonna they look like white trash boomer places. I'm sorry, but they do. It's like they're so uncool looking. They are so uncool. They're uncool.

Kids don't want to go to uncool place. It's not like they're sticking Barney out front or whatever the hell furry. They're not sticking that stuff out front. You know, come on. Stop it. Stop it. I'm not making nobody get mad because I'll print out your email and I will I will roll over it with my mini segue that I got six years ago on Amazon for Mother's Day and then I'll take her to the range and shoot Buckeye through it or birdshot through it. So stop it.

But you know what I mean? They look like adult places. They don't not like it doesn't look cool.

They don't look cool. Kids are not going to go to a place that doesn't look cool. I seriously take issue with the whole marketing to the kids thing. That's what big government always says with stuff that it wants to ban. Oh my gosh, it's more it's going after the kids. Wait the same government that's going after the kids trying to cut their their their genitals off and and flip their genders against the wishes of their parents. Suddenly this government's all worried about the kids. What? The same government that lost hundreds of thousands of kids that it that it allowed to come across the border illegally. Suddenly that same government. Oh my goodness. We can't have these cannabis stores targeting the kids.

Just can't have a cane. Can't have these cannabis stores going after the kids. No, I've seen the ingredients list on like Froot Loops. They're allowing some pretty poisonous stuff to our kids. Eat it right in front of the TV. They literally use a bird to advertise it to the kids directly to the kids. Come eat our cancer cereal kids.

Full of cancer. Yeah, I'm not really going to pay attention to the government. That's so out of all the and you know what, Lieutenant Governor Patrick has come on the show before. Can we have let's bring him on again to talk about he's gonna be like, Oh my gosh, we all we get along with him so well, even when he's so wrong.

We're so nice because he's he's very genteel. But I'm just like the same guy just as anybody else fed up with the government telling you what you can and can't do especially after I don't know the whole wooflu drama. Yeah.

So it seems like I'm just done with it. The same government that was doing all this stuff. That that was shilling out books about oral sex to your kids in elementary school. The same government. Oh, we don't like these stores are targeting the kids. No, they're not.

And now all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's quick five. Oh, man. I just remembered it's time to watch Nightmare Before Christmas. Deadly Nightshade movie actress dies at a Mexican spiritual retreat after consuming deadly monkey frog potion. What gave you the idea that this might be deadly? Anything that's a monkey frog potion already sounds like it's going to be deadly.

Why do people do this? So it's I don't think you need to say movie actress but they did. This strange potion they said dates back to the Inca period and oh, it's meant to cause uncontrollable diarrhea and vomiting for consumers, which supposedly acts as a cleanse.

So Marcella Rodriguez, she apparently decided that she was going to do this and it didn't work out well for her. It's 40 times stronger than morphine. Oh, my gosh, why? Who would who's like, you know, well, you're gonna basically leak out of everything to death. That's how it's gonna have work for you. Who wants to go?

Okay, let's do that. No, it was in Durango, Northern Mexico. I mean, it literally took hours to kill her. They're doing an autopsy, but pretty much have an idea of how that happened.

Just gonna say that's horrible. An officer uses a child. An officer uses a child's bicycle, chasing down a felony suspect and there's body cam footage and it's actually hysterical.

The he was not near a squad car. He used a little kid's bicycle to go after the felon. He come he commandeered a kid's bike to continue the pursuit, said the department and its paperwork.

And it was a lime bright lime green bike too, which is funny. They got him he got him. We caught the suspect charged him with felony theft. The guy also had three other officers.

Outstanding warrants. And they said the suspect might have had a scooter but officer tar had determination and a kid's bike. Yeah, he thought he was gonna get away on a motorized scooter but wouldn't gonna happen now with officer tar. He was on it. I mean, and kudos to the kid who let him take the bike.

One showing you the footage right now. He's grabbed the kid's bike. And he's like, here we go. Here we go.

We're going after him. I mean, this actually makes me want to now ride a bicycle. Right? Remember how fun this was back in the day. This was fun.

This is what Peloton should have had Peloton should have had like revisiting your childhood by writing your instead of the stupid stuff that they had. Yeah, go through the neighborhood. Let's see here. Oh, the worst time to shoplift. Don't.

Here's an idea. If you're shopping with a cop, don't don't steal while you're doing it. And they did this as a Walmart event, their annual shop with a cop, and someone who was shopping with a cop decided to steal from the Walmart.

Didn't work out well for him. Our partners that helped bring you the program. It's our friends over at Caltech, the P 15. It stands for 15 pews. It's the lightest, thinnest, most easily concealable nine millimeter double stack mag that's on the market.

Tell them Dana sent you I don't I want to play this video cane. It's in slack, but it's very juvenile. So you guys remember Eric farts I mean swallow. Verbal typo. Yeah, it's a verbal typo.

It was completely an innocent error. I need to I need to discuss this video just because it's funny and I need a palate cleanser and also Wow. It's almost Friday. I mean, you know, it is it's, you know, like I said, next week, everybody's gonna be drunk on eggnog half of you are going to be paying attention.

So let me get your let me get your attention. This is Zoe Lofgren. She's a Democrat, of course, what is up with like, people from California?

And their personal gas issues? I don't get it. She just let let her rip tater chip right there on CNN. Go ahead. Roll tape.

Watch her eyes. That power the purse is with the legislative branch, not the president. And I do want to ask you because of your work on the January 6 committee. Oh, yeah, you need a wipe after just Dana your juvenile I am Hi, did you just we meet just know that did we? That's the smartest thing that was said on CNN all week, believe it or not. Smartest thing. Crazy, right? That fart is going to get its own contributorship.

It's gonna happen. Zoe Lofgren. It's fart.

CNN contributor. It'll be to have been in to I can see it now. It'd be like, you know, there's the big show. It can host a show with the Yeah, Jeffrey Toobin. Right.

It can Toobin can host it with hosted by Jeffrey Toobin and Zoe Lofgren smart. Yeah, there you go right there. I mean, it is it's I know I totally know that it's juvenile. And I love it all the same.

Love it all the same. It and notice Jim Acosta's face. He wasn't even Jim Acosta has this thing where he looks at his monitor. So I'm if you're watching the simulcast, like I'm looking right at the camera. I don't have a teleprompter. I have a giant screen in front of me that I refer to for notes or if I'm like reading quoting something for you. And then I have a monitor that shows me the program right behind me. So you can't really see unless you kind of can. If I'm looking right at the camera, if I'm looking at the monitor, for some reason, it's like CNN's monitors are five feet under the camera.

I don't get it. Because he's not looking at the camera. He's looking all the way down at the monitor. So when you're the viewer, and you're what even when he's only when he's unless he's reading the prompter. Does he look at the camera? He doesn't look at it. Unless he's reading the prompter. He's always like this.

Always. If you go find clips, Jim Acosta, this dumbass cannot look at the camera to save his life. He's constantly looking down at the monitor. And I'm like, dude, bro, look at the camera.

But then it then it makes me wonder, well, how low are those monitors? Like, look at where his eyes are. His eyes are like all the way. I mean, his whole head's turned down.

How far away from the camera, the monitor should be right underneath it to where there's not really and the monitors just, you know, so you can kind of see, you know, take a glimpse for like show elements. Like sometimes I'll look at it if we're doing like a side by side or something to make sure because I move so much that I'm not aggravating Juan. And I'm like, in the middle of the shot because Juan is obsessed with symmetry.

Because he's good at his job. That's what he does. He's like, everything's got to be symmetrical. Everything's got to be in its place.

So I try to help out by not going everywhere. So I'll refer to the monitor. He always stares at it. And then I noticed when he's questioning people. Remember when he was in the White House press corps?

I because I was looking at some of these videos on break. He doesn't look at people in the face when he's asking them a question. I've noticed this, even when and one of the videos that came up was that were that time that he grabbed that woman's arm when he was questioning Trump, remember?

And they were having a very, he was having a very heated, you know, Q&A, it was a White House press avail. And even then he was not he would not look at anybody in the face. It's weird. He's a weird cat. He's a weird dude. I don't know. I mean, maybe he's only law friends farts gonna take over a show because I mean, at least that looks right in the face. Just saying Can we hear it again, please? Steve is obsessed with us. It was like, watch your eyes.

I heard it once. Okay, go ahead. Go ahead.

That power the purse is with the legislative branch, not the president. And I do want to ask you because of your work on the January 6 committee, that power almost sounded like a video game effect. Right? Trying to think what that reminded me of what video game sound does that remind me of something?

Yeah, I don't know. But so I thought that was that was the smartest thing that was been said on. Yeah, smartest thing that's been said. I'm seeing it.
