Media Defends MS-13, Cory Booker's Filibuster & Gov. Ron DeSantis Joins US

Liberty Nation with Mark Angelides. Questions abound regarding Tesla terrorism, the Signal scandal, Tim Walls' grand tour, and Bernie and AOC trying to make socialism great? Again? And we've got the answers to all those conundrums on Liberty Nation Radio. Author, columnist, managing editor of LibertyNation.com, podcast host, and conservative policy advocate.

We dismiss history at our peril. Liberty Nation with Mark Angelides. While appealing, whichever ones they want to appeal, and to demand the return of people unlawfully taken to El Salvador on that so-called plane full of gangbangers. And I especially, well, that is gonna be my hip-hop album name. I don't know if you guys knew that plane full of gangbangers.

I'm all about it, about it. That's going to be my hot new album. And I'm going to go on a summer concert series, and we're going to do it. I don't know what the heck is happening, but that's I heard whenever Jamie Raskin says anything, I immediately want to make fun of it because he's so worried in this audio sound bite. uh about the quote unquote illegal alien gang members taken to El Salvador.

That is so mean for those. It's so bad for those poor little gang bangers. Bless their little Baby infant hearts. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness.

I'm gonna use my dog voice. Oh he did it, look the matter. Yeah. Hopefully, Wick is not listening somewhere out there because I just realized it's actually probably a very bad idea. He's kind of being a.

Yeah. sort of. He's yeah, he's He's going to be testing his limits today. All right, so that's Jamie Raskin, who is. trying to intercede on behalf of the precious innocent Just as pure as it is.

Baby infant. Little me mew. gangbangers. Mm-hmm. Yeah, so Yeah.

You guys agree with him? Why do Democrats want them back?

Well, because who is according to them If you listen. to uh oh get that guy who looks like a mini pritzker. J uh Nadler, Jerry Nadler. Sidebar. No weird me.

First off, welcome. Let me let's do salutations and greetings, everyone. Thank you for going on this wild. goat rodeo with me. Uh number two.

Uh ch the chats at Rumble, channel 347, drive T V, all that good stuff. Um Number three. Remember, if you see J.D. Pritzker and you see Jerry Nadler, it's like Jerry Nadler, it's like J.D. Pritzker, it's gonna sound mean to some of you, really don't care, broke off a fat roll from his neck and it.

sprouted arms and legs and became sentient and and was elected to Congress and called itself Jerry Nadler. Pretty accurate.

So descriptive, mm. All right, so uh that is uh yeah. That's right now where they are. The latest. The latest.

We've got a lot of stuff to discuss today because we've got that. Uh Supreme Court Election in Wisconsin, and there's a a lot of concern about turnout. And we also have some other special elections that we're watching. And it you just a little We're I want to We need to be a little worried. About This, some of the turnout, because I think some people think that if Trump's not on the ballot, then they don't need a turnout.

I don't want to be mean. But that's wrong. And also Then I guess you don't want his agenda implemented. Because if you don't show up. for special elections and for midterms.

How is that any better than what Democrats do? I mean, you're you're not helping the The implement the agenda. You're not helping get you know good Republicans elected. Mm-hmm. So whose side are you on?

Dana, it's too early in the week to be that mean. No, it's not. It really isn't.

So This uh Latest. This question. Crazy story, and we're going to get to all of this stuff. This dude, let me start with this guy who. Was pull this article up.

This was over at the Atlantic. They have been apoplectic. Pretty much all 24 hours, well, for the last several days, along with the rest of the media. The reason why is because they said, oh my gosh, it's so horrible. They're just dragging people off the streets.

throwing them on the airplanes. They're deporting them. They're just those poor baby gang members.

So sad. Did you see how they're? I mean, El Salvador doesn't play, El Salvador is like. They have an entry crafted for Every gang member. It's pretty wild to watch it.

It's actually very, very fun. The that's what happens when you're with Trenditaragua or MS-13. Atlantic headline: Administrative error sends a Maryland father to a Salvadoran prison.

Now, let's just go off the headline, let's not dive into the meat and potatoes yet. The subhead says the Trump administration says it mistakenly deported an immigrant with protected status, but that the courts are powerless. to order his return, Cain. This poor baby dad. This baby infant father dad.

Okay. He's He was taken. He's got protected legal status, guys. Protected legal status. Wait, wa well, let's not dive into what that means yet.

Because there's a little bit of an asterisk on that phrase. Little bit.

Now when you say First off, the dude, he's just an innocent baby dad, right? He's just, you know. Kilmar Garcia. He was accidentally deported. They said you can't touch him.

Remember, they put a gun-free zone sign on him, the equivalent of that. They put the gun-free zone. Equivalent. For immigration, protected legal status, right?

Now you're like, well, protected legal status, Dana. That sounds official. It does, does it not? Yes, it does. It sounds like there's probably some paperwork with Letterhead involved.

I'm saying. Boom. Mm-hmm. There's a little bit of a They they they the way that they are portraying this to average everyday Americans, they want you to be terrified and think that you're going to next get picked off the street. And that's not accurate because this guy, whatever protected legal status means, doesn't mean what you think it means.

So The digging on this guy. And looking up, His history. And how is it that someone with protected legal status, all the Capitol L libertarians, are screeching and crying? And here's the problem with this. He actually wasn't Legal status.

He just got permission from the Biden administration to stay. Biden let every Tom Dick and Harry stay. Every Tom Dick in Trenoragua stay. He let everybody stay. And so this is Little bit of a problem because this guy.

He was literally actually with MS 13. Yeah. This Kilmar Garcia, now remember, they said he was granted legal protection from removal in 2019 and mistakenly deported. He had no criminal conviction. No criminal conviction, guys.

Do you know why he didn't have a criminal conviction? Because he was a damned gang member and the country was like, meh, get out. We're not going to go through the Victorian freak show of having a theatrical trial for you. You're not a legal citizen. You came here legally.

You were running around with MS-13. You were granted somehow by the cheese whiz-brained president of the last administration. You got protected status somehow. And now you got to go. Yeah, they didn't, nobody in the press is telling you this.

And then the left's big thing is: well, he wasn't convicted with MS13. No, he was literally caught running with them. I'm not quite sure what people don't understand here. And then he went to ICE. He was in detention with ice.

And they're like, well, he's been out for the last five years. He married a U.S. citizen. He still has no criminal record, except for the fact that he entered illegally and he was running around with MS-13. By the way, there are court documents on this.

And that's what's so funny that the left totally doesn't realize. Oh my gosh, there are actual, like, you know, I mean, there's work here. I'm looking at one of the charging docs, and it said during the course of his proceedings, when he was in ICE custody, there was an immigration judge that denied his bond at a hearing on April 24th, 2019. Why did this judge deny Mr. Infant Dad baby Garcia?

Bond, at a hearing on April 24th, 2019, you dare may ask, well, I will tell you, it's because he was cited as a quote-unquote danger to the community because the evidence showed he's a verified member of MS-13. Oh. Oh, but there's more with the purchase of one slap chop, you get another one. This one, they also determined. That he was a flight risk.

That is a direct, I'm reading from the charging docks. You can't see the giant four and a half foot screen in front of my face.

So that is why, and not only that, but a Board of Immigration Appeals upheld this decision. They also concurred. This dude is super dangerous. He is a verified card-carrying members-only jacket member of MS-13. In another set, he was described as having a quote unquote prominent role in MS-13.

Fuck. Look at that. Yeah. The operation that led to his removal to El Salvador. was designed to include only individuals that had no impediments to removal.

So see when they grouped up people to send them back to their place of origin. They made sure that there were no impediments and they could just be sent right back. And in the case of this person, there was no impediment, and he got to go. He got a free flight home. Look at that.

Most of you have to pay for your flights. This guy got a free flight home. And so The Whole process, ICE was aware. of the grant of withholding. At the time.

And he was not on the initial manifest to be removed. He was an alternate. Others were removed from the flight for various reasons. He was moved up to the list and assigned to the flight. And they said it was an administrative error.

A removal carried out in good faith, literally based on his verified membership in MS-13. on the existence of a final order of removal. How is there a pa the guy who is in MS-13? Oh, it was a paperwork error. This gang member gets to stay here.

What does he do, run hunter drugs? I mean, you're a verified member of MS-13 and President McChee's brain, Daddy Showers, gets to go, oh well, no, he gets to stay here, his precious little baby gang member. Mm. No, he needed to go back. I that's what happens when you FA, you FO.

And there are consequences to bad decisions. That doesn't mean there isn't a path to redemption, but it also doesn't mean that redemption cancels out any kind of justice. Mercy and justice can coexist, don't you realize, as can grace.

So I just completely trashed. Can all of those arguments. He wasn't an innocent father. He was literally a member of MS-13. But the media thinks you're stupid.

They have zero respect for you. They think you are the dumb, unwashed masses, and that they can manipulate your emotions by withholding information about actual violent gang members who entered the country illegally. This has been a top trending story for the past forty eight hours. And if you watch CNN or any of the alphabet legacy press, not a single one of them. have any kind of ethical awareness.

or journalistic. Duty to actually bring you the full scope of this guy's story.

So, no, Trump didn't just pull some innocent dad out at t-ball practice off the street and then send him to El Salvador. The guy had been listed as being up for deportion for quite some time, deportation for quite some time. And he had a verified membership in MS-13. I mean, they literally caught him running around. you know, doing shenanigans.

So I don't know what they think that they're trying to pull here. But this is exactly what we're talking about. And then it gets all the Capitol L libertarians upset, oh my gosh, Trump is just pulling people out. Right and left. But he's not, though.

I mean, if he was I would be I mean I think I've you know Made no bones about it. I call balls and strikes. That's not what is happening here. And I think it's gross for people to weep and feel sad and grieve the deportation of an actual gang member, a violent gang member, one of the most violent in the world.

So, get the story straight, press. We have a lot more on the way as we roll towards headlines. The economy. Very slowly getting back on track. It's a mess.

Hey, this is Todd Herman, host of the Todd Herman Show. You might have heard me on Rush Limbaugh's show, where I was a regular fill-in for about eight years. I now do a show out of the high mountains of free America because you know I got exiled from Seattle. The Department of Education has been dead weight. It has taken some three trillion dollars since Jimmy Carter invented it as a gift to the teachers' unions.

And educational progress in this country has flatlined, in fact, gone down. Check out the Todd Herman Show every day on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. And now, all of the news you would probably miss, it's time for Dana's Quick Five. A carjacker found out the wrong way when he tried to carjack a citizen who was lawfully armed and protected themselves. A man was shot and killed Sunday night in an act of self-defense because he tried one of several armed assaults in the area.

The Hardyville Police Department got word of an armed suspect who was trying to carjack a DoorDash driver and then he tried to run away on foot. They responded to the call. They heard gunshots. The guy, he tried another carjacking. He pointed his gun at the driver of the car, fired at least once.

The driver fired shots in return, and the carjacker was struck. The driver was initially detained. That's standard operating procedure. But of course, they determined it was self-defense and so they released him. Of course, they did because it's self-defense.

You just don't carjack people and you won't get shot. There's a consequence. They're trying to still panic. Goldman Sachs lifts U.S. recession probability to 35%.

We're in it now, though. I don't know why we're talking about lifting anything. The expectation, we're in it now. YouTube is about to eclipse Disney as the biggest media company in the world. That's really sad because YouTube is horrific.

When it comes to broadcasting anything. They hate us, they've demonetized us multiple times, they have outright deleted videos of mine that they don't like. Uh it's heinous.

So I can't, I mean, that just is the state of everything that that is the biggest media company. That's kind of unfortunate, but they're overtaking Disney. Uh I don't really care about this at all. I don't I've never watched the show Kelly Clarkson is going to take over from Hoda Cobb on the Today show. Nobody cares.

Nobody watches. Nobody actually watches this. What is it? One of the Bush daughters and Hoda, and now they're having Kelly Clarkson on. I thought she had her own show.

I don't know, maybe it's just snap. Is it mean I just don't care? I do not watch daytime talk. at all. I could not, even if I just couldn't do it.

I'd have to put on horror films all day. There's no way I couldn't do it. Oh my god, listen to this. This is wild. A water shortage is threatening the world's most abundant lithium reserves.

What? This is the lithium triangle and mineral-rich region in the Andean Plateau. It stretches across Argentina, Bolivia, and Chile, and it's about half of, actually more than half of all global lithium reserves. They're saying that they don't have enough freshwater to extract it. Because it's a dirty, arduous process.

Friend, you are somebody that is a hero who folks don't know their name in the countries that you have affected with your strength on foreign policy. Dear God, my friend, I yield the floor for a question while retaining the floor. I asked my friend. Excuse me, I'm going to say that correctly. I yield for a question while retaining the floor.

I do not yield the floor. I asked my friend and colleague from New Jersey if he is familiar with Psalm 30, verse 5. Wow, you hear that giant sniff? I'm not saying that he probably had like a line of booger sugar right there on the podium, but I'm saying that he may have. That's Corey Booker, who is tweaked out to the nth degree.

I mean, I have seen actual tweakers on cops look less awake than him. Welcome back to the show. Dana Lash with you. Corey Booker. Who is bright eyed and high?

I'm not saying he's high, but I am. He's on the floor of the Senate and he's filibustering. Those eyes, though. Demizedo. You want to hear a funny story that's about that is that I will bring back to Corey Booker's eyes?

Alright, so picture it. It was like uh like seven-year-old Dana, right? And my grandma, just keep watching his eyes because this is terrifying. If I saw that, by the way, in my bedroom at night, like the devil eyes coming at me like that, those are crazy eyes. What is up with the move of people who just think if they open their eyes more, it makes them more intimidating?

It doesn't. You just look nuts.

So, when I was about seven years old, my grandma got me this cheap baby doll, right? Just like as a nice thing. She's at the dollar store, you know, it was probably made in China. You know, back before, you know, we really did not like them, although we were weird with them. Anyway, so she got me this baby doll.

And it was one of those where you laid it back and its eyes closed and you pulled it up and it opened.

Well, this doll. The psycho. And Its eyes just got like stuck open. And there was no way, it was just a default. It was because of her.

The plastic flesh of her eye cavity just hung over, and it just wasn't, you know, there's a lot of. We would have had to do an upper eyelift and all this on this doll. And I just was at seven years old, I just was not technically. able and equipped to do it.

So I just had to deal with it. My grandma's like, well, you can pretend her eyes are closed. You can't tell a kid that. Pretend my doll's eyes are closed, they're wide open. She looks like a damn demon.

It's weird.

So anyway. Had this doll, couldn't get her eyes closed, so I sat her in the corner of my room and I woke up in the middle of the night one night. And I remember looking across my room, and it was fairly dark. There was a street light outside that still filtered through the blinds, you know, so there was a little bit of like diffused light. And the way that the light The diffused light was coming through.

Those slats. on my plastic blinds. just hit that doll's face and illuminated those eyes in a way that was more than unnerving dare I say it was terrifying. And it was like the eyes were illuminated from within, right? This crazy doll, and I, you know, like any normal seven-year-old had normal seven-year-old thoughts.

I'm looking at this, I'm like. This doll is possessed. This doll is gonna cut my throat open while I sleep. Oh my gosh.

So I didn't wanna go to sleep, I wanted to watch that doll. And it was creepy. I ended up trying to hide it out of my room. My grandma would, you know, she was babysitting me. She would put it back in my room and I'd leave.

But I hadn't really thought of that story. until I watched Cory Booker on the floor with his coke eyes. And he's filibustering. And was, is he trying to look angry? You know, when people do that, they're like, I'm going to open my eyes real big at you, and in an attempt to be intimidating.

And the rest of us are just like, nah, you're not intimidating. You are crazy though, but you're not intimidating. It's the same thing. I just got that that whole that whole vibe.

So he's filibustering. They're mad over Trump's policies, essentially, right? They're mad over Trump's policies. I love the I yield the floor while retaining the floor. He's a meme.

He struck oh man, I'm gonna use these pictures forever. I I wanna apologize to all the subscribers to the newsletter over at Substack chapter and verse because I just found a bunch of pictures that you're gonna see a lot of uh for all of my headlines here from here on out. I'm Really sorry about that, but it's worth it for me. All right, so. He's he's on the floor.

He's carrying this out on the floor. And he does look nuts. And they're trying to... I think that they are trying to figure out.

Well, I think some of the party are trying to figure out, wow, everyone hates us. What can we do? Nobody likes us. What are we going to do? We got to figure something out.

And I think That But they believe that these stunts somehow endear them? to the American voter. Or even to their base. Their base wants them to get angry, but they don't specifically state about what. or what to do.

With said anger. They don't actually say it. I mean, man, cocaine is a hell of a drug. Cocaine. Good night.

Good night. So he's been he I I think he's trying to get B-roll footage. You seen the pictures of him? I mean, they're amazing. They're one of my fav I'm here, I gotta share this with you in Slack because I just we can we can use these photos forever.

Mm-hmm. What it so what's the point of a filibuster? What exactly do they think that they're going to accomplish here? He's on, is it hour 14?

Well, I think it's seventeen seventeen now? Spartacus is still at it. Has he said anything about The Democrat fueled Targeting of Tesla. Consumers? Oh, no.

No Democrat has actually. Thirteen hours he runs his mouth and he hasn't said anything about At all, Tesla? No. No. Thirteen hours.

Has he had this energy for the whole thirteen hours? I mean, he's going to OD if he keeps it up. That's why I'm asking for his. I don't know. You get bathroom breaks, right?

Yeah. You don't get any ba so he's gotta wear what depends? I think you can tag team it. Oh, okay, so. I think you can do tag team.

I mean, to my knowledge, I don't think that you can. But. Yeah, he's for thirteen hours. For what? We need more government money.

Look at him. He's mad. This is, if you're watching the simulcast, you're looking at a photo of a man mad. That the government doesn't take care of him enough, that his sugar daddy government, oh my gosh, they're just so great. Get out, he says in this image.

Get out if you don't like more government. If you don't like more government, you can exit now. Does he look intimidating to you? No, he never has. But imagine being on the side of not wanting waste, fraud, and abuse.

to be removed. Imagine being on that side of the argument. Yeah, I don't um I mean, if it's about saving money. All these people. I heard a soundbite from Elizabeth Warren this morning.

Who, I think it was, I don't think it was from yesterday, but it was a soundbite where she said, uh, That Elon Musk. He's gonna get his hands on your social. She swear to you, hands disguise. She said, Elon Musk is gonna take your Social Security and they're gonna spend it on tax breaks for billionaires. I have heard this phrase over and over again when I heard her say it, that was it.

That is one of the stupidest things that I have ever heard in my life. It looks, the reasoning. is the reasoning of someone who only has one brain cell to their name. And they're trying real hard. That is, it's one of the dumbest things that I've ever heard in my life.

So just imagine.

So you're saying that Elon Musk. who has no capability to do anything. except audit what he's allowed to audit under a specific type of NDA with read-only access. He doesn't actually access any sensitive information. He can see where the government is wasting money and spending money, and he can make recommendations as to what needs to be cut from everything that he's taken in because he's not Congress, and he can recommend it to Congress as is their right to determine whether or not they want to cut it since they have the power of the purse.

And then they want to use the savings to maybe pay off our debt. But Elizabeth Warren is insistent that it's going to go to tax breaks for billionaires who, frankly, I think everybody needs a big fat tax break. I think we need a big fan of abolishing the IRS. But we have a bunch of people who are absolute pansies in all manner, all levels of government. And that's never going to happen because they're more worried about them staying in office than they are you paying lower taxes or none at all because it's unconstitutional.

They care more about their seats than they do the Constitution. If you're not voting to abolish the IRS, that's an unfortunate stat. That's a fact of your life.

So The um This this Talking point, these talking points that I keep hearing. Oh my gosh, Elon Musk is going to take all our money. He's going to take all our money. First off, tax cuts don't cost. You're not paying.

paying for them. In order to allow people to keep more of their own money, you're not paying them. You have to spend Less. Less. Meaning we're not going to be spending stuff on trans propaganda in Africa.

Nothing like that. I I it's just. wild that these are I I the talking points get dumber with each passing year. Like we were talking about the the guy who got deported. From Maryland, the innocent Maryland dad, who is literally a member of MS-13, and that's why he got deported.

And now all the Capitol L libertarians are freaking out. Oh my gosh, Trump is just pulling people off the street.

Now, I call balls and strikes. The Atlantic was leading. Leading the hysteria this morning. Leading it. If that were the case, I would be one of the people criticizing it.

But that's not what's happening. There's no what's happening. It's just so disingenuous.

So disingenuous And They I mean, look. They said, well, he's not convicted of being a miss lurching. Why are we going to waste taxpayer dollars on court proceedings for someone who's not in the country illegally? A gang member who's not in the country illegally, just to prove that he's a gang member so progressives won't protest him getting deported. I mean, it just I was explaining this.

one of my kids. Uh over spring break. This idea that The whole, whether it was the Flores Agreement and the grace period for deportations for kids who were brought over unwillingly by their parents, like little kids. I question your innocence when you've been in the country for decades and you can file paperwork to go to college and get scholarships and for jobs and all of this other stuff, but you just can't seem to get yourself. you know, especially when Flores was in effect and you had any kind of deportation.

Uh I mean, you were uh excluded from that. under the floors agreement. Uh Why were people not taking advantage of that and going through and becoming starting the process in order to protect themselves when they were? Excluded from deportation as a result of that. It doesn't make any sense.

So I don't have a lot of sympathy there. I don't have a lot of sympathy. Audio Somebody 7. This is another representative who's very upset. You can't fire people.

You can't fire people if you're trying to find efficiencies. What? What's that?

Well, I would say that it's important that we go in with a scalp and not a chainsaw. I would say that you don't fire the workforce if you're trying to find efficiencies. These are the folks who know where the efficiencies can be made. Yeah, it's them. They need to go.

That's why. Oh, it's them. The call's coming from inside the house, ma'am. It's then they gotta go. And yes, you do need a chainsaw.

Why are we why is that a talking point? Is it because uh Malai gave Elon Musk, a chainsaw. You need a chainsaw. Oh, we need to just be very spit. No, we're past that.

I don't think people realize how dire the circumstances are. They don't realize how Unbelievably dire the circumstances are, how fragile everything is economically at this point, how much debt we have. The time for surgical cuts was like 30 years ago. Forty years ago.

Now it's chainsaw time. And I think anyone who disagrees with it respectfully I think that you really underestimate the severity of the situation that we are in right now.

Yeah. I am a 58-year-old adult humid female. I am formally making my proclamation, exclamation right now to you. I will no longer be associating with any white Males of any kind. I think.

It does not matter if liberal or conservative. It does not matter what color hair or eyes. As long as the skin is white, and it is a male. I will not be associating with it anymore. This can't be real.

There's no way that this is real. There is no way. It's too easy, dude. The fact that we're questioning it, though, should say something. I don't think that she needs to make a proclamation that she's not interested in any dudes anymore because.

So hard to look weird. People without any kind of mental substance. overextend themselves. Visually, because they want to look weird as a way to make up for the fact that they are absolutely, they have banana cheese brains. That's why.

Banana pudding brains. That's it. That's why. Oh, well, I can't be pretty, so I guess I'll be weird. I can't be smart, so I guess I'll be weird.

That's what they do. That's like their whole identity. I'm just saying, you know, Cory Booker staffer was arrested with a gun? What? Yeah.

You can get classified by simply having certain symbols in your tattoos and wearing certain streetwear brands. That alone is enough to get someone classified as TBA and sexuality.

Can we pause this for just a second? And I got to make a point here and then I'm going to let Caroline Lovett go because she's talking about this MS-13 gang member. You know what I just realized as he's questioning her, and the reporter is accusing her of targeting. These poor little baby gang members. Uh cane.

Um because based on their tattoos. Did the press, did they or did they not, freak out? over tattoos for people that they would see at protest. And didn't they think did the press did they or did they not freak out and think that the Iron Cross was a Nazi symbol? Correct.

Did they or did they not freak out and say that the sec deaf Heg Seth was basically a Nazi because of his Christian tattoos? That had nothing to do with it. Magazine, newspaper articles, all about it.

So, what now, all of a sudden, they don't want people to do what? Yeah. Okay, I'm sorry. Go ahead. This is the fu 'cause it's worth hearing.

Go ahead. and wearing certain streetwear brands. That alone Is enough to get someone classified as TDA and sent to El Salvador. That's not true, actually, Andrew. According to this document, it is.

No, according to the Department of Homeland Security and the agents, have you talked to the agents who have been putting their lives on the line to detain these foreign terrorists who have been testing? Terrorizing our communities. TDA is a vicious gang that has taken the lives of American women. And our agents on the front lines take. Deporting these people with the utmost seriousness, and there is a litany of criteria that they use to ensure that these individuals qualify as foreign terrorists and to ensure that they qualify for deportation.

And the president made it incredibly clear to the American public that there would be a mass deportation campaign of not just foreign terrorists but also illegal criminal aliens who have been wreaking havoc on American communities. And shame on you and shame on the mainstream media for trying to cover for these individuals. This is a vicious gang, Andrew. This is a vicious gang that has taken the lives of American women. Yes, they are covering for them.

And you said yourself there are eight criteria on that document. And you are questioning the credibility of these agents who are putting their life on the line to protect your life and the life of everybody in this group and everybody across the country. And their credibility should be questioned. And the reporter is wrong in here. I mean, and she, by nature of asking a question, And Uh Dissit you're you're excluding the very important context.

of the fact that this guy was a known MS-13 member. that he entered the country illegally and took part in gang activity. By omitting that, for from the question. And insisting that the frame of the question be: how could you deport this innocent dad? That is covering for them.

It's covering for the criminality. Absolutely. And it is done so. With the Purpose. Of chilling any kind of question about any association of anyone here illegally.

Welcome back to the program, top of this second hour. Dana Lash. With you. That's one of the big stories. We talked about this last hour about the dad that was this.

Oh, he's just a smarily dad. Maryland add. And um he's just was deported, so mean.

Well All of the newspaper articles that have been written, the pieces over at the Atlantic. everything. They um didn't actually include the fact that the guy, according to ch documents, court docs, was M M S 13 member. And the press says, Well, he wasn't convicted. Why would Why would we have a trial?

For Someone who is not a citizen of the country and was caught in the commission of shenanigans. Just curious. Seems like a question that answers itself. I'm just saying. Audio sound by 15.

So the White House correspondents dinner. That I don't ever watch this. It's where the press, it's like where people come and they. The political and legacy press members, they show up and You know, they it's like a problem for them. I've never wanted to go rub elbows with these people.

Steve was explaining that because the Daily Show hasn't been funny in forever. This chick apparently was a writer there. I guess she was going to host it. And they asked her about it. Listen.

Yeah, I think it's just that burns on Trump hurt badly and and then it trickles down to everyone who is around him 'Cause you're also guilty.

So I think it just they got their feelings hurt. But and they want that false equivalency that the media does. They want that. It feels great. It makes them feel like human beings.

But they shouldn't get to feel that way 'cause they're not. Oh, wow. You seem super nice. They shouldn't. Who's she that gets to determine who is or who is not a human?

Is she a comedian? She sounds like a bitch. She doesn't sound like a comedian.

Sorry, am I supposed to say that? Because I did. I don't have any courtesy for people like this who are, she's described as a comedian. I've never heard of her, and there's probably a reason. But I don't think she's funny.

She doesn't sound funny. She doesn't sound funny. And I guess she was mad because she wasn't she was going to host The White House correspondents dinner. And then now it's not. She's not hosting it anymore, so I guess she's upset.

But sitting here and acting like people aren't human because their political persuasion is different, that's actually. That's that's that's the inhuman thing. That is actually what fascists do. They rob you of your humanity because you disagree with them. and they have to do that to justify how heinous they really are behaving.

I mean, that's the big thing. If they think that you're a human, they can't justify mistreating you. But if they are convinced, or if they convince themselves, or at least convinced other people so that those people don't pass judgment on what they're doing, if they can convince others and maybe themselves that you're inhuman and that you forfeit your humanity because you voted for Trump, then that in their mind justifies their treatment of you. It's really monstrous. If you want to have a discussion about who should or shouldn't be there or who shouldn't feel like a human, that's an inhuman action.

So, yeah, I would say that. You're not. To deny a personhood because of someone's politics.

Now you can see why people justify. going in and doing things like uh scratching up Teslas and all of that stuff and and and threatening people, running them off the road for wearing a Tes uh, for driving a Tesla. They're able to convince themselves of this because they have been able to convince. you and out you know, themselves that these people aren't human, so they can treat them. in mean ways because they're not human.

That's The left has always been like that though. Always been like that.

So I guess the Filibuster's still going. To your point, because you asked earlier, Kane, if he can stay on the floor.

So, Lorraine, so Strong Thurman, the Civil Rights Act still remains in history to be the longest. T uh filibuster. Democrats filibustered the Civil Rights Act because they need to nobody knows about that. It was the longest filibuster in congressional for the in the record. And Strom Thurman, he had to keep a foot on the floor, but he had a bucket.

uh in the coat room and he could just keep a foot on the floor and then Yeah. Go to the bathroom in a bucket. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Fourteen hours.

There's no way. You know, you gotta be drinking water. I wonder if yeah, is he wearing man diapers? I mean more than usual. I'm just curious.

I got a lot of questions about this. Got a lot of questions. Just saying. But they're on, so nothing's going to get done in the Senate. Nothing's going to get done in that.

Nothing's getting done today. No, this there and I'm sure I think one of them brought up the deportations. This Just another quick note on that. The whole thing is that They're trying to argue that the deportation plan that POTUS has is Uh Unjustifiable and they want it all stopped, and they're trying to use the stat as like the big excuse to not carry out deportations. He wasn't pulled off the street, you know, just walking around on the street.

He wasn't, he was like an actual gang member. Good heavens. But this the whole point of propaganda is to convince you of things. The whole point of propaganda is to persuade you, to make you feel either uneasy or to motivate you into supporting you know what they're wanting you to support. They want you to think that an innocent man, the sweet dad, was just sent to El an El Salvador prison and left to uh Uh Languishing there along with Trendettaragua and MS-13 members and Uh that's he well he well he was an MS-13 member.

Not i the way that they're telling you it happened did not happen that way. And this has been day two of the administration trying to kind of correct some of this stuff. I mean, there are people. Who I I mean I mean the just so you know the evidence that was presented to the judge at the time? Uh When he was in court.

I'm going to pull this up. Because this is uh I don't even think it was an administrative error, really. This order, this was done in 2019. And when they went before an immigration judge, and you know, these immigration judges have, I'm sorry, they've been incredibly lax. That was one of the things under Obama Biden.

They wanted to get a lot of lefty judges in, and that's why it was important for the latter portion of Trump's first term to try to reform some of that judicially. But in twenty nineteen, they have presented enough evidence To persuade a judge to deny this guy bond and demand his removal. That was in 2019. And that is the order that was still existing when he was deported.

So, nothing, there was no administrative error. I just kind of want to touch on that talking point before I move on. It wasn't an administrative error. I actually disagree with that. This was the order from 2019.

and these judges have been fairly, I think, left leaning. I mean, if you go back and look, a lot of these people have been allowed to stay. This guy had serious He had serious criminal activities happening. He was running around with MS-13. There was enough evidence presented to the judge for the judge to say that he is a danger to the public.

And that's why his b his uh Bond and was denied, and that's why he was it was demanded that he be deported back in 2019.

Now They case what they're trying to argue as it pertains to the administrative error they're trying to say that the President the administration, he wasn't supposed to be deported. And that they made the mistake of deporting him when he wasn't supposed to be deported. And that's the air. I really don't even care. I don't care.

He was based on evidence. was running around with MS-13. And these left-leaning judges thought, wow, that's enough to deny him a bond and order for his order his removal. And so that's what, but the thing is, he could. He objected, saying that he would be tortured if he was sent back to El Salvador.

That's not my problem. That's not your problem. Maybe don't do stuff with gangs. and you won't have these issues. Just saying.

So this idea, well, it was a Payro's an administrator, I'm just that's not what it was. That is not what it was. There was enough evidence there, and these people arguing: well, what do you know with the evidence?

Well, do you know more than the judge does who is there in the courtroom every day and looking at this stuff? That's why we have these judges in place, right? The guy was here illegally. That enough should be enough for you. But if it's not, He was also running around with MS-13 to the extent that the evidence presented was overwhelming.

And it then justified his deportation. These people, they got to stop with us. It's just asinine. I feel like some people, some of these contrarians out there, Are purposefully stupid because they feel like that's an unexplored niche in the right. Right?

Oh, we're going to be members of the dumb right.

Well, you can be. I just don't know how you're going to sustain an audience that way. It's our friends over at Tax Network USA. They can help you with the government theft agency. I mean, the government extortion department.

So first up This is a crazy story. It was tragedy at a hockey game after a goaltender was killed. When he was hit in the chest by a puck. It was an adult league hockey game in Florida. A 64-year-old was killed after he was hit in the chest with a puck while making a save.

It was the Kraken Bears at the Community First Deal in Jacksonville. He felt unwell and then left the game and then collapsed in the stands. They performed CPR, but. they uh weren't able to save him. That is Horrifying and incredibly tragic.

The world's fattest.

Well, not the worlds. The fattest countries in the US, or sorry, cities in the US, the most overweight and obese cities in the US. according to WalletHub. They said obesity more prevalent. They looked at these, wow, some of these cities, like they said, the number one was McAllen, Texas.

Our sweet Sister station. KRV Duncan Callen. Sweet like diabetes. Oh my gosh.

The overall rank is number one. Second place, Little Rock. Third, Jackson, Mississippi. Fourth, Mobile, Alabama. Five, Knoxville, Tennessee.

Shreveport, Augusta. It's all like Arkansas, Alabama, Mississippi. And then you go down Oklahoma City's 12, Memphis is 11, San Antonio is 13. Dallas is 24. Go way, way down.

Honolulu is like one of the healthiest.

Well, it's Honolulu though. I mean, what's to be expected?

Sorry. Adults, what? Experts are saying that adults can sleep with stuffed animals too. If you're a weirdo, yeah, go right ahead and do that. Just ignore that headline.

And if you're a weirdo, sleep with a stuffed animal. That's fine. Coming up. We've got a lot more on the way later on in the hour or in the program. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will join us.

Stick with us. Burn a gun, the non-firearm firearm, and has. the ability to shoot chemical irritant projectiles. and disabling threats from up to 50 feet. Away and the SD, this is Berna's best-selling model.

Now, it's a, I say it's an on-firearm, firearm, and I also believe in diversifying your weapons array.

Now, I'm always going to carry. And I have zero issue using lethal force, but there are sometimes because of municipal anti-constitution restrictions or private property, whatever, I am barred from carrying a firearm.

Well, I don't want to be made defenseless. And so, again, it's good to diversify. You carry blades. You carry knives. You have rifles and pistols.

There's no problem with having something like a Berna gun also, because it can provide an effective deterrent. No recoil, legal in all 50 states, no background checks, no permits. It doesn't care about gun-free zone signs. And it can be... shipped legit right to your front door.

So it's accessible for everybody.

Now the SD, I have friends who've gotten this one. All my friends who've gotten the SD live in New York and D.C. And they really did need something where they could not carry their firearms because one of them works in the press, very like-minded.

So it's important to make sure that you have, you know, you're able to protect yourself in some way.

Now, the Berna SD shoots five rounds. If you compare that to regular stun guns, they only have like one or two shots. This is five rounds. And this is the perfect time to evaluate everything that you have in your self-defense array. Visit Berna.

Brighten up your timely news consumption with a Dana Show podcast, where every update comes with a little dash of not so serious on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts. A climate of fear and trepidation has descended upon the nation. Why does he talk about that? are more afraid today for our democracy and for their personal safety. than ever in our lifetimes.

College students have disappeared off the streets paramilitary style. by plain clothes. mask wearing individuals and held incognito for days before they are discovered thousands of miles away in some private for-profit ICE detention facility. Why? for exercising their free speech First Amendment rights.

He this is like a key and peel character. Attention teaches the students. I mean he is Why does I have always been fascinated? That's a Democrat representative. Hank Johnson, the guy who once said that Guam would tip over.

Islands, how are they made? What he has the weirdest. Elocution. Ever. Like, I thought it was Chris Walken.

It's not, it's him. It's so the climate of fear and trepidation. Why does he there's like only certain words that get enunciated and then he just kind of pushes through The rest. It's fascinating to me in a weird way. Welcome back to the program.

We're at the bottom of the second hour. And it is Wisconsin. Wisconsin is voting day in Wisconsin. They're having elections. For their uh State Supreme Court.

And we talked about this. mentioned this the other day. How, and they've, I can't believe how much money, by the way, has been spent here. This Supreme Court, one of the reasons why it's so incredibly important is because. Uh this is ultimately The race that Could determine the map, and we theoretically could we could, well, another, we could lose two seats.

People are going to decide who is going to be the next Supreme Court justice. The money that's been spent on this race is wild. You have the Republican. Judge Brad Scheimel, and then the Democrats Uh uh Susan Crawford. They're the candidates that are facing off in the state race.

And it is, I mean, you have George Soros involved in this race, Elon Musk has been spending money in this race. And I think it's hysterical that Crawford, who is the progressive communist. judge said that Musk's involvement is undemocratic.

Now, George Soros is equally involved in this race, and I noticed that. Crawford, who probably got donations from Soros, did not say that Soros' involvement was undemocratic, just Elon Musk's. Because Elon Musk isn't a communist. They think that that's undemocratic. I just think that she hates immigrants.

Why does Susan Crawford hate immigrants in Wisconsin? Gosh. Why did she hate this African man? You know, that's spending money on to get a r you know, going up there and helping to get Rep Republicans elected. She actually said, quote, I think it's a sad day for democracy.

To have someone See, they like immigrants unless they're You know, like Elon Musk. They like getting involved in elections unless it's somebody like Elon Musk. That's it. So they're facing off. And these are some pretty high stakes with this raise.

Um the And of course today's April Fool's Day, as it would be. I am so. Not allowed to do anything on April Fool's Day. That's right. Snitches get stitches.

So the Republican in this case, in this race, Brad Scheimel. Ah, a shamel. He's um They're trying to replace this retiring judge, and he's I I can't imagine if he loses This will undo. It I mean it it could theoretically undo the Uh a House majority. Because they would redistrict that they would gerry it'd be gerrymander it and you would lose two seats.

I don't even know what this means. I mean, it also would shape the state to be a lot bluer than it is. They desperately need to redistrict things to gerrymander things to prevent another Republican from winning that state. And that's what Democrats are focused on. They want to redistrict the Republican strongholds into losing seats where Republicans have tiny, non-existent majorities.

Derek Van Orden, who's a Republican out of Wisconsin, and by the way, he's one of the 14 Republicans that Democrats are targeting going into midterms. He said, quote, what's at stake? is control of the House of Representatives. And he said that they're trying to buy the House of Representatives so they can subvert the President's agenda and disenfranchise seventy seven million voters.

Well, because they are trying to buy it. It's always interesting when And when people or entities are accused of doing something that they absolutely are doing and they get butthurt about it. Mm. So They had this back in 2011. This is the other thing that's going to be.

Also, could go away. Back in 2011, the state legislature in Wisconsin. They were passing voter integrity, protections for voter integrity, right?

So you would have to have actual identification to vote. And the other thing that's on the ballot is an opport that the meth an opportunity for voters to actually. Uh codify this, make enshrine this in A constitutional amendment to make it to where you have to have voter ID. It's in the state constitution in order to go and vote.

Now One of the things that Red State noted is that Susan Crawford Who is the progressive judge facing off against Brad Schummel? Brad Schreimel. Uh she was one of the lawyers who represented these League of Women Voters in 2011 She was fighting against the voter ID law, and she ended up losing.

So clearly you see where she stands on this. And also, she represented Planned Parenthood in Wisconsin. Susan Crawford is one of those who subscribes to the belief that Planned Parenthood should not only be taxpayer funded, But it's something that should be offered up to every women. Like, hey, ladies, remember, go get your free abortions. Asterisk by free.

It's taxpayer funded and it's. All ages, meaning it doesn't matter if you're in your ninth month or in your second month. She's one of those. And she had a lead in early voting. But the people who actually, according to some, and this is, I honestly think there's been a real absence of polling in this, good polling.

He had an advantage. with the most plugged in voters, the people who went out and regularly voted. Who voted every election, not just general elections, but they go out and they vote in the municipal, they go out and vote during midterms, things like that. This would be a huge when I honestly think it's something that Trump should have gone to Wisconsin for and rallied. And I think it's good that Musk was there yesterday.

Uh, there have been a lot of people who have been sounding the alarm on this. Ultimately, only Wisconsinites can make this determination, but. It's going to be super close.

Now, if Susan Crawford wins it, first off, if Brad Scheimel wins it, that's a huge victory for conservatives. It's going to be looked at as a victory. One of the first post general election challenges to Trump. That's how this is going to be viewed. And it will be viewed as a win for POTUS and a win for Elon Musk.

His pack that he created to support these good candidates has given they've given millions to Scheimel's campaign. If Crawford wins this, It's going to be, like I said, you can imagine the headlines: the first election post-presidential election, and Trump has, you know, there's a, they're going to look at it like, oh, Trump has a suffered defeat or he has a crushing blow. What is this forecast for future special elections and midterms? And they are going, it's going to be a shot in the arm for the left. Uh Democrats Fell apart at the polls in 2024.

This is going to be a shot in the arm for them. And they need every bit that they can get.

Now, also, remember, take this up. There's two other special elections. You've got one in Matt Gates' seat. Matt Gates' district. I think it's Petronas that's going for that seat.

I think he'll win it. But you never know. But the one, the other one is the Florida 6th Congressional District, where Randy Fine, who doesn't, who actually legitimately does not even live in the district. decided he just wanted that seat. and wanted to go and represent people he doesn't know and doesn't live amongst.

And he is like the worst out of all of the Republicans in Florida. The fact that they put this guy up. For this seat, that Mike Waltz won by 30 points, and now they're literally tied. And it's been classified as a toss-up. And the Democrat has outraged fine by like, what, two to three times?

He's got such a huge war chest. They were ready, and this is what happens when you think that you're entitled to certain seats and that you shouldn't have to put any groundwork to get them. I mean, you you know I guess he's too good to live amongst the people in the sixth congressional district. I don't know. But it kind of floored me, and I'm like, I cannot even believe that this is considered a toss-up race at this point.

You realize that all if this race goes to a Democrat, that means in midterms Democrats have to flip three seats to take back the House. Randy Fine loses this seat. There's a less seat that Democrats got to worry about going into midterms. This is crazy. Absolutely insane.

Republicans are their own worst enemy time and time again. And what I will say, I'm going to tell you something, and I've seen this because I've been on the ground. In offelection years when Trump isn't on the ballot, Republicans don't vote. And the coalition doesn't vote. I think that the coattails of your candidate Extend to midterms and can be measured by midterm and off year elections.

I remember going to Georgia. when they had the special election there. and going from town to town. and trying to get out the vote. And people were just done with it.

This was after the 2020 election. Uh it was um in spr I think what, spring? No, this is before just going to. I'm trying to remember the time. I've been to so many places.

But I just remember going around and um I was there with Victoria Spartes and she got real mad because people were like, Hey, we just don't think we should you know, it's not important to vote. You're telling this from a woman who came from a an Eastern plot country, grew up with socialism. She's like, Oh, my gosh, what do you mean you're just going to throw away this constitutional option that you have this is insane this is your Term limits are your vote. And um When all was said and done, And this was that uh Herschel Walker race. The Republican turnout was so low.

Terrifyingly low. and especially in the most conservative areas. it was lower than it was during the general election. And so there have been enough elections. That Polsters can confidently say.

When Trump isn't on the ballot, Republicans do not vote. And not just Republicans, the coalition doesn't vote.

Now that's a real problem. It's a problem because The party health, also is as important as the candidate's political health. And you can't just say it's one and done. He's in the White House. Let's forget about it.

Well, no. Do you want? Your taxes cut? Do you want jobs to be brought back? Do you want all of the fraud and abuse that you saw?

That Doge uncovered, do you want that to actually be cut, or do you just like reading headlines about it? Because see If you want actual action, then you've got to go and you've got to show up at these other elections when Trump isn't on the ballot. And I know you all know that, but apparently there are enough people who don't know that that it literally changed elections. You realize that low Republican turnout is the reason we lost the Senate? In 2020.

That is a very uncomfortable fact. If registered Republicans had turned out to vote, In Georgia we would have kept it. and we lost it. That's a true thing. You can't blame that one on Trump, for the people who always criticize Trump.

You can't blame Trump for that. That was Republican voters. That had nothing to do with Trump.

So There's a lot to consider here. And Wisconsin is I I have to say I don't know where the R R N C has been. Where's the RNC? Have you heard anything from them? We're in the fight of our lives.

Taxpayers demand answers. I should see the leaders of the RNC on the television every damn day. I should see them making statements every single day. I Want to be so overloaded with information coming from them that I'm tired of seeing their faces. Just like I want to win so much that I want to be tired of it.

See what I'm saying? That's what I want.

So The RNC need to get involved here. It can't just be third party and then Scott Pressler. He's been sounding the alarm. Like, there's nobody from the organization up here, guys. There's nobody.

I mean, he is, it's, and he's not the only person I've been hearing this from. This, we have got to get a handle on this before midterms, or we're going to lose our backsides. And then it's all over. All over. The cycle, they start, people start raising money and filing.

They're already getting in position now. Gold prices have surged over 40% since January 2024, consistently reaching new highs. According to Goldman Sachs research, the upward trend is expected to persist due to strong demand from central banks. It's stuff like this that's made me take action and why I've bought precious metals like gold and silver. I partnered with a great company that makes it super easy to buy, easy, transparent, and simple.

And that company is Goldco. They're a huge supporter of this show and they're the best at what they do. And right now, you can get a free 2025 gold and silver kit jam-packed with critical information about buying precious metals. It was a huge help, not just for me, but to all of you if you do this.

These are some real bangers today, so let's see if we can get through these. All right, first and foremost. This is the headline at the smoking gun. Everyone knows what conch is, C-O-N-C-H. Let me just establish that.

Florida woman charged with conk bonking. 40-year-old Florida woman was charged with felony battery because she attacked a dude with a giant conch shell, according to police. They said that Nikki Quarterman was very intoxicated when she got into a domestic argument with a sixty-three year old victim. They've been in an on-off relationship. And uh she uh after the argument She, uh undressed and broke everything.

And then she grabbed a 10 to 12 inch dried conch shell and swung it at his head multiple times, threw it at him. He got a laceration to his hand when he tried to block it. And then she locked herself in the garage. She was taken into custody, posted a $15,000 bond. She was arrested six months ago for pretty much the same thing, except no conch shell this time.

So now she's got all kinds of battery, DUI, assault, law enforcement. Oh my gosh, everything. Her rap sheet is forever long. A Florida death row inmate says his morbid obesity will complicate the lethal injection and he wants leniency. Uh Or just use another shot.

Their needles aren't expensive. Uh, you know, I mean, if it takes more, it takes more. Uh, he wants leniency. 48-year-old Michael Tanzy is morbidly obese and he's got uh p some stuff I don't care about because he's a k killer and uh an unrepentant killer. And uh so he says that it would cause needless suffering.

Well, that's kind of the point. I want suffering. Maybe I shouldn't say that, but I do.

Of course, sir.

So this is an executive order, as you said, that deals with the ticket reselling business. For fans of live entertainment and for entertainers as well, the ticket reselling industry has become a huge issue. These people use bots and computer algorithms to buy up huge blocks of tickets and then jack up the price so that fans of live entertainers like Mr. Ritchie, I almost called him Mr. Rock, don't have access to concerts the way that they should.

And when they do, it's at exorbitantly high prices.

So what this executive order does, it charges the FTC and the Department of Justice with rigorously enforcing laws on the books in collaboration with state attorneys general that have power over consumer protection and other people who have the power to really crack down on this issue so that entertainers and fans won't be subject to these abusive and oftentimes illegal practices. Good.

Okay. Thank you very much. I love this guy who makes the every time he hands them executive order.

Well, sir, this is an executive order barring Green Day from calling itself punk. As you know, Green Day is not punk, and there's a lot of debate as to how pop they actually are. And another thing to note, sir, that has been brought up is that they faked a... British accent, their whole first album. You know, the song Longview, which was their chart-topping single that came from their first album, Green Day's Dookie.

And that, sir, was out in the 90s.

So this is what this order is, just barring them from being able to describe themselves as punk. And then hands it over. I love this guy. It's great. Welcome back to the show.

Top of the third hour. Dana Lash with you. So they had Mr. Rock. That's Mr.

Kid Rock in there, seated next to the Resolute Desk. And is that the one that he changed because they said Elon Musk's kid wiped a booger on it? Is it? I don't know, the press was going crazy over that a couple of weeks ago. I don't know if it is or not.

They switch out different things, but I highly doubt that that's why. But that was funny. But they had uh kid rock in there, and then and then you got Peter Deucey. This is uh audio sound. By 19.

Go ahead and play this one. If I can do news conferences like this, Peter, I don't think he was ever standing next to somebody who looked like they were about to shot out of a cannon. I mean that jacket though. Yeah, he does. He's got his bandstand hat, like the hat that you would wear out to a.

A garden party in your town squares. The band plays the American standards. Yeah. Right? I liked how Kid Rock was.

He's like, you know what, Deucey, you're right. That was a good one. Yeah, he's like, that's a good one. It's true, though. I think you you need it's like a hype man.

Right there, but that's good. No, so does this mean that everybody, all the people in Hollywood, got to thank Kid Rock for being there? Because I think he is that the purpose of him being there is because he was one of the people that pushed those. Yeah, I assume so.

So, does everybody in Hollywood have to kiss his butt? Isn't that how it goes? Like, look, everybody, where's Taylor Swift at? Didn't Taylor Swift always complain about tickets and Ticketmaster and all this stuff? It's like Pearl James.

I mean, there's a lot of bands out there that have been against the. the machine that Ticketmaster has become. I mean Yeah. It's so and look and Trump not Biden but Trump did it. Huh.

Now you might say that's stupid. Why are we worrying about this? You gotta remember. Populist Tactics It keeps the younger voters ma or younger voters happy, right? It's kind of what part and parcel of what that is.

So, just very interesting. A couple of other things. We're going to have Florida Governor Ronda Saint just coming up at the. Um Bottom of this third hour. He's been super busy in Florida, and they've been dealing with Florida rhinos and fighting with property tax and all kinds of good stuff over there.

So we're going to touch on all of that. And one other quick thing to note, too: pull this up. Because I saw this a little bit earlier.

So HHS, NIH, CDC. Uh yeah, they had uh a bunch more people fired. More people were put on leave. They were told they were no, according to CNN. They were not going to have access to their buildings starting today.

Apparently, Uh RFK Jr. was gonna fire X amount and then I think he doubled it. That's a shame. They said that entire offices were being eliminated, and much of the focus appeared to be on the administrative side of things, but not all of it. Hmm.

So they uh That's Yeah, they're l I'm I don't feel bad no ways about this. None at all. Not at all. There are too many. I mean, I still go back to the fact that the CDC was trying to overextend its authority and tell people that they don't have to pay rent.

But the property owners still had to pay taxes. They just didn't have to pay rent.

So they got to live there for free. And then a House Judiciary put out just a couple of hours ago new internal FBI chat logs show that the FBI imposed a gag order about the New York Post story on Hunter Biden's laptop the day it came out. This is wild, this story. I was looking at some of this on break. Because the FBI had the laptop the day the story came out, the FBI refused to be honest about it.

And they really worked hard to discredit it, even after. October 14th of 2020. One FBI analyst tried to tell Twitter that the laptop was real and his bosses silenced him. And the FBI refused to, in spite of requests from the House Judiciary, produce internal communications from that day in an unclassified form for the American public to see. And there are time-stamped messages, and it is damaging.

For instance, someone you have Laura Demlo. James Denhy, Bradley Benavitas, and several others saying things like, Oh, this is just a domestic hit job. You guys are tracking coverage of the laptop, right? I would love to know if a copy exists and if it was provided to anyone else. And it said that.

And they were talking about briefing each other on on it. And it said uh Uh that No one on no one's authorized to comment. And then they also stated In this, please do not discuss Biden matter. Here's a gag order.

Someone said Twitter's treating as disinformation. There was one whistleblower that they asked, have you admonished? Yes, but he won't shut up. That's literally a message that they literally said that. I can't even make those up.

Oh my gosh.

They said uh in fact, one said that someone from Twitter asked where it was whether it was real. One of the FBI folks who was on the call confirmed yes that it was. And this is testimony of Laura Demla, who was the then China unit chief of the FBI's Foreign Influence Task Force. They said that one of the FBI people on the call, according to this transcript, confirmed that yes, it was. Another participant jumped in and said no further comment.

And she said, I recall that when the question came up, an intelligence analyst assigned to the criminal investigative division said, yes, the laptop is real. And then it was an OGC attorney assigned to the case that stepped in and said, we will not comment further on this topic. They were really working to not talk about it, to downplay the importance of it. And then Facebook demoted the story. Right before the election, I was one of many people who had their account suspended.

Oh my gosh, I was suspended on Facebook. I got suspended. I got a strike on Instagram. We got in trouble on YouTube. They took videos done on YouTube.

They demonetized a bunch of stuff. I was suspended on Twitter. And then they finally reinstated it because I kept having to fight it. It was ridiculous. And then they try to punish you every time you object to.

Being struck if you're on YouTube or Facebook or wherever. Like, if you do, if you object too many times and they just think you're problematic and they get rid of you, it's ridiculous. And so, I'm finally, I'm glad that this was, I'm glad that this was remedied and that this, I mean, it was absolute election interference. Absolute, unarguable election interference. No absolute doubt.

No doubt at all whatsoever. This is one of the greatest cover-ups. Just ever.

So This is one of the things. We're also tomorrow, one of the things I'm going to discuss as well. and get more into this is this epic project in texas we first talked about this a few weeks ago. One of the a large-scale community that's being planned for Texas. And there's a lot of questions as to whether or not the project is in compliance with state law.

And we're going to talk about some of this tomorrow. In the meantime, One of the other things that, you know, because I don't watch a lot of TV. There will be some series. Kane and I were talking about the summer break that we watch. How difficult is it for you guys to find stuff that you want to watch?

Like on even on streaming services, everything's such garbage nowadays. It's all garbage and it's all super highly sexualized. And I've been, I've got some objections, but I've been. I like Taylor Sheridan's storylines, and I've been watching 1923. I watched the earlier one that was in the 1800s, and that was great.

And then, you know, obviously you watch the Yellowstone flagship. Not every series that you watch is perfect. Been watching 1923. Can I just say that I could go forever without watching the Timothy Dalton SM stuff? How in the world is that in a Taylor Sheridan series?

Why do we need that? It literally does nothing to the plot. We get it that Timothy Dalton is a weirdo. We get it. He's a weirdo without trying to be a weirdo.

He's one of those people, right? He's like, you ever meet people that look creepy without being creepy? And you're like, you're creepy. You know what I mean? And if they did something creepy, you tell your friends, I'm so not shocked because they, that's Timothy Dalton's like that.

He's like a walking one-man horror show. You don't need to have SNM scenes in every episode to reinforce the fact that the guy is Weird, and he's a sadomasochist, and all this other stuff. You don't have to do that.

So I could. Do without it, and it's a pain in the backside to fast forward through all that because I don't want to watch that. Uh now, the series I like because of one actress in it. She's the actress. I can't pronounce her last name.

Her first name is Julia. She plays. Alex Dutton.

So, if you haven't watched the series, it's really good. We are on what episode 6 million of Spencer Dutton trying to get home. This, you know, wild Greek tragedy 10-year journey, modern-day Odysseus trying to get back home. To his ranch in Montana. I like the actor who plays him.

He has got good chemistry with the actress who plays Alex Dutton. And it is. It's a good, it's a good series. Helen Mirin is fabulous in it. Uh Harrison Ford is really good in it.

Is he really trying to be old and slow moving or is that him? Uh yeah. That's a good question. He doesn't really have to do much. He's very good.

I'm also no acting coach. No, but you, I mean, he sells. I can almost smell the tobacco on him, you know? Like, my grandfather was a cattle rancher, and he's, you know, old. grizzled cattle rancher and And he would smoke marlboroughs and I could just.

That's what he reminds me of. Anyway. It's such a it's a very good series, but right now Alexa Dutton has been trying to get to her husband's ranch in Montana and she's currently caught in a snow drift. in a car. And there's probably going to be a Bigfoot out there that's going to try to rape her.

I'm just saying, because she's been going through hell for this last season. If you you haven't watched any of it, Cain, have you watched any of the Yellowstone series? No, I've seen some Yellowstone episodes, but I got rid of Paramount like a long time ago.

So I'd Can't watch it. The only T V shows that I actually watch are those. People are people ask me, Do you watch watch White Lotus? No. Mm-mm.

And there's one show. That I was so not interested in watching, but Walton Groggins is in it, and he's a brilliant actor. And he apparently plays somebody who's so over the top and crazy that I'm in it's like something gemstones. I'm interested in watching that just for his, he's a great character actor, just for watching him. I don't know.

But I don't watch a lot.

So I could do, like I said, without all the weird Timothy Dalton stuff. I could do without all of that. But I want more of the Spencer and Alex storyline. I want more of them, and I want more Harrison Ford and Helen Miran. I don't care about the whatever rainwater girl story.

I don't even care. Don't care.

Some chick out in the prairie. Just I wrap it up. It's like such it's filler.

So, I don't know. That's the only stuff because every now and then people will go, Well, what is it that you're watching? And I put stuff out if I'm like reading something or watching something, but I don't watch a lot of. a lot of things.

So the pull this up.

Well, we talked about this. Massey and Republicans are pushing getting rid of dual citizenship. We talked about that yesterday. Can you at this one also? Let's see.

Let's go. Here's one. This is, I didn't have time to get to all of this yesterday. I think I only actually just read the headline real quick. This has to do with the plumber that went back to reclog a pipe after a restaurant refused to pay the bill.

That's a level of pettiness to which I aspire. In Evansville, Indiana, owners of Eastside Restaurant, they said that it was extortion. That's not what extortion is. The plumber, they hired a plumber. The plumber came out, fixed the pipe.

Fix the, you know, they had their kitchen's grease trap that overflowed, so they called the plumbing company to come and fix it. When it happened again three days later, they called him back, said it was an emergency. They returned for the second job, and they said that the bill was nearly double for what was paid the first time. The first one was $2.35. That's then it was $3.90.

The owners wouldn't pay for the second one. And they said that he needs to stand behind his work.

Okay, that only matters if you didn't, did you not use it? Like, what's happening? Uh and then uh so he went back and he uh basically uh stuffed the pipe up again. I mean, right?

So they said that they paid it under protest. They had to pay.

Well, because you had to pay because he performed a service for you. He was not robbing you blind. Kane says that this is like a Mad Libs headline. All right, get ready. An Atlanta bagpiper killed while scuba diving, son who vanished four years ago, found dead at home.

This seems like a long story. I mean, do you need to have every identifying factor about the guy in the headline? You could just say a man, you know. Was killed in a scuba diet while on vacation in Hawaii. He plays bagpipes.

How would we know? But here's some more.

So he was known for playing bagpipes around Atlanta. And then when the family went to get to his home to settle his affairs, they found the skeletal remains of their missing brother. That's a lot. We got Governor DeSantis up next. Jeez.

So we have almost three to one Republicans in the House of Representatives. Have they passed open carry, which 38 states have? Of course they haven't done that. They haven't done that.

Now if you ask them when they campaign, do you support it? They will all say yes. And then somehow it just magically doesn't get Doesn't happen. See, this is why it's so important. Yes, you want to elect Republicans, and yes, it's great.

to have a super majority. But you also have to be sure that you are electing good quality Republicans. And nothing frustrates anybody voters more than what we're seeing in Florida and Texas. But Florida, I think, is even bigger because Florida is like the blueprint. For the nation, how Republican policies should be enacted and how things should be governed and administrated.

And they have such a wealth of victory over there, and it's like the governor is. Like fighting, like I say, he's just out there fighting the legislature. And it's just, I want to pull my hair out, so I can't even imagine where he is right now. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis joins us from the governor's mansion on Skype. It's good to see you, Governor.

First off, thank you for fighting for Second Amendment rights and holding true to the promises that you made when campaigning. You have been pushing these lawmakers to deliver this for voters.

So I thank you as a big Second Amendment advocate on that. But I also have to say, I'm so sorry that voters and you are fighting just to get everything else that was promised, that these lawmakers promised them.

Well, Dana, I will say this. I think that I do see a distinction between the Florida House and the Florida Senate. I think we've had a real productive Discussions about all these significant issues with a lot of our senators, whether it's property tax, whether it's some of the other things that we want to do with things like education, law enforcement. I think the Florida House of Representatives is basically engaged in something that voters clearly don't like and will not like in the future. They have ridden into office.

on the goodwill that has been generated by our Florida model. Where, you know, Previous legislatures were very much working with me on that. It wasn't like I just did it all, but it generated a lot of goodwill. We tackled all the big issues. We delivered an unprecedented amount of conservative wins.

And so they now have this big super majority in the Florida House. Almost a three to one supermajority. And how are they using that? They are using it to do things like. Carbon sequestration.

They are doing it to do things like joining with Democrats to undo spending reductions that I put in the budget last June. They are doing things like expanding bureaucracies and trying to create new government offices. And so you think about like, You campaigned on the Florida model. And yet you're doing your best to squander it. And people will say, oh, the governor thinks they just have to do what he wants.

No, you do what you campaigned on. If you told the voters that you were opposed to expanding Second Amendment protections, if you told them that you were going to join with Democrats to increase pork spending, if you said to voters that you weren't going to entertain property tax relief, but you were going to indulge in climate hysteria and things like sea carbon sequestration. If that's what you campaigned on, look, I disagree with that. But if that's what you do, then you're being true to the voters that elected you. But none of these guys campaigned on that.

They all campaigned on our conservative agenda. And now that they're in power, they're basically squandering this. I even had to make a statement on You know, they don't want to do property tax, they don't want to do open carry. But one thing they have done is they have tried to take away. the capital office for our U.S.

Senator, Ashley Moody. It had been with Marco Rubio for 15 years. Marco became Secretary of State. I appointed Senator Moody to be the U.S. Senator.

And the House took it away because Senator Moody, and you remember these discussions back in January, she sided with me against the House on the immigration enforcement legislation. I called a special session. We wanted to make sure all state and local were participating with ICE. We wanted to help Trump increase deportations. The House leadership and staff drafted a bill that was basically an amnesty bill.

There was huge voter blowback. I know you had one of the rhinos on, I think one of the rhino senators on your show, and he couldn't answer any of the questions about it. But this was really something that the House was driving, and she did the right thing.

So they're now taking that away, and they're actually filing legislation. To deny her the ability to use the office and to regulate parking spaces in the Florida Capitol. How petty is this? How embarrassing is this? that we are this model Republican state.

We had two years of unprecedented conservative victories. And now the Florida House of Representatives is all spun up. About legislating who controls parking space in the basement of the Capitol. You're right. Petty is a great way to describe it.

For those listening, we're talking to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, and you can watch it also, Channel 367, DirecTV. You mentioned they're trying to undo a lot of the cost savings that you've implemented. From what I read, and I think you cited this as well, over $60 million. That's for what are they, what are they trying to spend this money on? I mean, this is this, these, these savings, this is one of the things that you'd promised voters.

Voters were very happy and now they're trying to undermine your efforts. They do realize, Governor, that all the people that moved to Florida were moving to Florida because they were happy with the administration of the state and that they were happy with the direction that the state was going. This seems like a bait and switch, what these Republican legislators in the House are doing.

Well, that's the thing, Dana. And I mean, this is not for me to like, you know, beat my own chest, but the reality is when I go out, do different events, even just go run errands in Florida, someone will come up to me every single time without fail and say, I moved to Florida because of you and what you've done and what Florida stands for.

So we have a unique brand in this country right now for the type of governance that people who think like us really aspire to. And that's just a fact. I mean, that is how we've had hundreds and hundreds of thousands of Republicans who've gravitated to this state since I've been governor, driven by. They want to live in a place that respects their freedom, where the folks in power share their values. And so that's just kind of what we've done.

So it's really false advertising to go get into office on that goodwill. And remember, we didn't have a supermajority my first term. We got the supermajority in the House with the reelection, my reelection in 2022. We were winning places that Republicans had never won before. And then we were able to hold that.

in 2024. And I think a lot of the reason why we held it in 24, the supermajority, is because voters saw the results that we had produced. We had delivered a huge legislative agenda, more significant than probably had ever been done in American history, certainly in modern Republican Party history. And the voters responded positively.

So to now go in and to be doing all these games and to not really focusing on the issues that matter. And here's the thing. You know, I think that there's a lot of folks in the Florida Senate that want to continue to advance the ball. They're working hard on different things. And I may not agree with them on everything, but I think their goal.

is to try to arrive at the best outcome for the state. I do think a lot of what motivates the House, particularly the leadership, is they want to join with Democrats to stop me. This is what they want to do. They view the last two years, even though we've had unprecedented success legislatively, they view those last two years negatively because they say, oh, the governor was getting everything he wants. And it wasn't what I wanted, Dana.

It was what the voters delivered us here to do. I won the state by 20 points. I mean, no Republican has ever won a victory like that in the history of Florida. And so the legislators and the House. They were following through on the mandate that we had received.

It wasn't because I was saying it, it was because the voters demanded it. Right. And the voters demanded tough immigration enforcement.

So, this is one of the things that you were victorious on: making sure that emergency powers were retained. The illegal alien transport, going after transnational gangs, no in-state tuition for illegal immigrants, suspensions, removal from office, your authority to suspend or remove local officials who are not complying with the federal deportation. I mean, this is all the federal mandate coming in and being implemented at the Florida state level. And there were fights against you for this. This is, I mean, you can even veto on that.

Look at what's happened.

So the House, Florida House fought me on that. They said that this wasn't something that was urgent. They said that it could wait till the regular session.

Now, they wouldn't have done it in the regular session either. And I knew that. That's why I insisted on a special session. And so the House wrote this ridiculous amnesty bill that stopped my efforts that I had been doing. But what we have now in Florida, because of the legislation that we got enacted, we have all 67 Florida counties, the sheriffs, Have 287G agreements with ICE.

We're the only state in the country that can say that. We now have more and more police departments that are signing up. We had the Fort Myers City Council. They initially voted not to cooperate with ICE. And then the Attorney General and myself reminded them: you don't have the choice.

The state law mandates you, and I have the ability to remove you.

So then they reversed course, and they did.

So we're the, not only are we not a sanctuary state, we're a state where you have a duty to affirmatively help. With these deportation efforts.

So, no other state has done that, but none of the stuff. That has made positive news on immigration in Florida with state and local, none of that probably would have happened. Had the House gotten their way back in January. And so you think about it: of all the things President Trump ran on, border and immigration was probably number one. He got delivered a mandate that Biden was the worst president on immigration in American history.

Here I am as governor saying, state of Florida needs to be on board with the Trump administration. Let's go day one, ahead of the curve, we got to do it. And the House of Representatives in Florida fought me over that. And eventually we landed the plane. But I mean, you would think, why did I have to call that special session?

Why didn't the House call the special session after Trump won and say, no, we've got urgency. Let's stand with the president. They didn't do that because that's not what they wanted to do. And because I wanted to do it, that's why they fought it. If I propose to get rid of property taxes, they will fight it.

If I propose to continue with Hope Florida, the First Ladies initiative that has gotten people out of welfare, onto self-sufficiency, save taxpayers $100 million, they'll oppose it. And they are now opposing that.

So it's all just a reaction to try to fight me rather than try to do what's best for Florida. And again, if they had run in their primaries saying, if you nominate me, I pledge to oppose the governor. And they were to win. And that's what they do. That's totally fine with me.

None of them campaigned on that because none of them would have won their primaries if they campaigned on that. And it looks like one of them's not going to win an election in the sixth congressional district, a seat that you know very well, governor, because the candidate doesn't even live in the district. Apparently, and I've, even though I think Waltz won that seat by 30 points, you won it by a huge margin when you held it, but now it's considered a toss-up within the margin of error to the Democrat challenger. And that's, of course, the one that Randy Fein's going for. I think that states everything about the nature of the game they're playing.

Well, here's the thing. I do think that the Republican will win that district. I mean, President Trump won it by 30 points. I think I won it by 30, 35 points. I know the area well.

I represented that area in Congress. He's not from that district. I think the president got really bad advice about endorsing him and was told that he was the only candidate that could win, which is totally not true. And there's a whole host of reasons how that advice gets to him that I think is very problematic, but it is what it is. But he is going to underperform.

So I think the Republican will win, but he will underperform. And he's going to underperform because a lot of Republicans aren't going to be willing to go out and vote for him. I mean, you had him on your show. He was fighting for an amnesty bill. In the Florida legislature.

He was attacking me for wanting strong immigration legislation. And so, when voters see that, it's like, you know what? Why would I want to vote for you if you're just going to stab us in the back?

So I think he's going to have trouble. Generating even close to the amount of enthusiasm that President Trump did or other candidates have done, but I think it's almost physically impossible. For a Republican to lose that district.

So I think we're looking at a Republican victory, but an underperformance. Then what's gonna happen? The media is gonna blame President Trump. They're gonna say, oh, see, this shows the Trump agenda is somehow not popular when you and I know, because we know the candidate. This is a referendum on this particular candidate being somebody that a lot of voters don't want to vote for.

And it's a reflection on his deficiencies. It's not a reflection on the Trump agenda. And so just prepare for an underperformance. You know, hopefully there's great performance in that district. I mean, I want Republicans to do well, but I think that Republican voters are sick of these guys getting into office.

and then basically telling them that an amnesty bill is what voters should want. Nobody wanted the legislation that that person was pushing. I have two quick questions for you. I'm going to end with asking you about Hope Florida really quickly on the property taxes. God love you for the property taxes because you, I think, are the only person that's gone out there and said you don't really own your own property.

You're constantly paying rent to the government for it, and you're pushing now to undo this in the state of Florida. That would be amazing. We're never going to do that in Texas.

So, I mean, Florida's looking better and better.

Well, so we're trying to get a stopgap cut this year of about $1,000 on average per household. But the main event is going on the ballot because ultimately under Florida's Constitution, the property taxes are a power of local government. And so you would need a constitutional referendum. We need 60% of the vote for that. But man, can you imagine no income tax and then we go after a property tax?

But the thing is, It's possible in Florida. Because we have the luxury, we had 142 million visitors last year. We have a lot of seasonal folks who aren't Florida residents. We have the luxury of being able to offload our tax burden to non-residents, basically.

So, why would we not take that opportunity to do that? Plus, these local governments have gotten bloated over the last five or six years.

So, they'll say, oh, if you do property tax and they're not gonna have money for services, but the reality is, if they just reduced their budget to where it was five years ago, that would be most of the way we would need to go, anyways, on this.

So, that's gonna be a big fight, but this is ultimately about. Do you actually own private property or not? Because if I buy a TV and I hang it on my wall. I have to pay sales tax when I buy it, but I don't keep paying tax to the government. It's a private property.

So is your home and your land private property?

Well, if the government can seize it because you're not paying them taxes for your entire life, then it's not truly yours independent of the state. I have one last question for you, about a minute left. Hope Florida, the project of the First Lady, which is a brilliant private. public partnership that is doing so much to help people in Florida. This would be so great, even like grown and enacted even more if she were sitting in the governor's mansion.

So it's a one-two punch. I'm sorry, but I got to do it. Hope Florida is great. And is the First Lady of Florida going to run for governor?

So on Pope Florida. This is her initiative. She came up with this, and it's really a frontal attack on Lyndon Johnson's war on poverty approach. Instead of having folks working in the government trying to get people on programs, we've transformed their roles to be navigators to try to navigate people in need to all the resources available in society outside of government. We embrace the faith-based community.

We embrace our charitable organizations, businesses that want to help their community, individual volunteers. And so, just in less than two years, she's gotten 30,000 people off welfare and saved the state $100 million. And I would say, That I look at a lot of these politicians that have been in office for 20 years, just that achievement alone. Is more than what most of these folks ever accomplished. And so Rush Limbaugh said at one time that he's always worried about the spouses.

Yes. And with Casey, he's more conservative than you.

So there's a chance. Yes. Last word, Governor. Yes. You're saying there's a chance.

All right, there it is. Governor DeSantis, thank you so much. We got to go. We're short on time. We'll have you back.
