Dana Lash's Absurd Truth podcast, sponsored by Keltec.
It's his life mission to make bad decisions.
It's time for Florida Man.
So let's see here.
We're going to start with because we got, I feel like,
I feel like Florida Man's been kind of quiet.
So we've got one Florida arrested.
He said he had a dirty bomb in his truck following a crash.
He looks like a dirty bomb himself.
Good night.
This guy's 43 years old.
Yeah, he looks like if he pulled hair out of the shower drain.
You know, when you're cleaning your bathroom, that's what he looks like.
Look at him.
He looks like that.
Haines City.
They said they were responding to a public's late Friday evening.
There was a Chevy Silverado involved in a crash.
And according to the release, officers made contact with the driver.
43-year-old Benjamin Johnson.
refused commands to exit the vehicle, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
He said that he had a dirty bomb inside his truck.
Too long, didn't read.
No, he didn't.
Moving on, he didn't.
But he just, he said he didn't.
When people say that, they have to take all these precautions too.
It's like, oh, now we got to shut down the whole city block.
We got to bring in the bomb squad, all of it.
Let's see.
I don't want that one.
but I do want this one.
A Florida man is accused of choking a victim with an umbrella in a Home Depot fight.
Oh my gosh, a 66-year-old facing off against a 54-year-old.
Ramon Rodriguez, 66, is accused of choking a 54-year-old man with an umbrella.
At a Home Depot.
According to Monroe County Sheriff's Office,
victim told deputies that Rodriguez hit him with his truck as he exited the store.
that seems like that was on purpose.
I mean, how, and it led to a verbal dispute.
So he said that he had pushed a shopping cart.
The report states the victim told deputies he pushed a shopping cart to Rodriguez's truck.
Investigators say the confrontation continued inside the store.
Then Rodriguez grabbed an umbrella upon entering the store used to perform to perform a rear naked choke on the victim,
preventing him temporarily from breathing.
And Home Depot staff had to intervene and separate them.
and then Rodriguez left the store and went to return to his construction site,
and he was arrested on charge of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
So he got in trouble for that.
All of that, and he got in trouble for it.
Yeah, I don't want to talk.
Oh, golly.
This is a Villages.
I got a Villages story for a Villager.
It's like Minecraft.
got caught with drugs in his prison wallet.
I don't know how else to say it.
The son of a couple in the villages
was sentenced to 180 days behind bars for,
yeah.
Cain, he had drugs in a baggie in his bum.
And I guess he didn't think that the deputies
at Sumter County Detention Center where he was booked
would find it they weren't going to notice they weren't going to notice apparently but guess what they
did so they do because they did a body scan and i guess this guy didn't anticipate that there was
going to be a body scan trying to figure out like the most nice way i can talk about this story
uh so they detected a foreign object in his lower abdomen according to the rest report and then when
they did a strip search they noticed oh well you know it's not visible so that means we got to go in
and that's when
this is so gross
I'm not even
I can't believe
you chose that one over the
I can't read anymore
basically they
were able to get the contraband
and then he now has additional charges
because you can't bring
controlled substances
into prison and it's so gross
they did not need to go
into the level of detail that they did
he birthed three packages
in his jail cell
and apparently the cellmate was like
horrified
So there you go. We have our third hour on the way. There's no coming back from this one. Stick with us.

Merry Sportsmas.
Who goes to Cinnabon?
How many people go to a Cinnabon?
I mean, yeah, I know, right?
I think the last time I even physically, like, saw a Cinebon.
Is it Cine...
Am I saying that right?
Cineabon.
Cineabon?
Cine B, B, B.O-N?
Even though it is a O-N.
But it's C-I-N-N-A, B-O-N.
Right, O-N at the end.
Should be bun.
It's cinnabund, isn't it?
I don't know.
Should I be saying it with an accent?
I don't know.
I just, it's, you know, one of those little mall things.
I actually was like in the early odds.
It was at a mall.
I bring this up, welcome back, by the way.
I bring this up because there was a milkshake duck incident in Wisconsin over the weekend.
Now you might be asking yourself, Dana, the hell is this phrase milkshake duck that you said just right before we went to break.
And now again, let me tell you the story of it.
I'll be very quickly.
It's 30 seconds and under.
It was a joke.
that someone said, oh, here's a little duck that loves milkshakes.
And it's a little picture of a duck with a milkshake.
And then, you know, 15 seconds later, we regret to inform you that the duck is racist,
meaning that people, these people are discovered, like the lady in the Chewbacca mask,
remember that whole thing?
And then the internet does its thing and they try to find some disqualifying event in that person's life
as a way to discredit them from receiving public odulation.
That's kind of it.
I don't know.
It's just, it's people mad because something.
good happens to someone and they want to just deuce all over it for the lack of a better way to put
it this is a little different though so this was in a Cineban and it was a female server and all I know
is that the video starts already the the drama is in progress when the video begins right
it's like when you join a news conference and it's like oh we're going to go take this live
already in progress right it's very similar to that so this lady
She is working the Cineban, right?
And these two Somali customers are apparently harassing her.
Now, the way that it went, the story goes is that they were harassing her because she wasn't wearing a hijab.
She wasn't wearing a basically dressing like a ghost with a slit for eyes.
And they were upset with her.
And they went back and forth, and then she decided to call them a racial slur.
She called them the N-word.
And it just continued to escalate from that point.
I don't even think, can we even play any of this?
Yeah, we have.
Okay, Steve spent an ungodly amount of time censoring this for you.
So you all better appreciate it because he had to bleep out every, listen.
I am racist.
So idiot for real.
And you are at, you are a idiot.
I am racist.
And I'll say that to the whole entire world.
Don't be disres.
ruin your life by the way oh talking about you're talking about respect you're talking about
respect you are fired from this place you're not gonna be working here
suck it suck what look how you fucking look like what's wrong with you what's wrong with you
you talking about agliness did i sit stutter oh my gosh like why is this keep happening i would
have i was already bored i was already bored so it's the cineban employee and apparently what
happened and it doesn't show that, you know, nobody's in the right here, but there's some,
just till for a second, listen to the whole remarks before everybody clenches their butts.
First off, I think the Somali couple are trash. I think they're absolute trash. I think it is rat-tastic
to walk into a Cinebond with the purpose of starting problems, right? If you don't like the fact
that a woman isn't wearing a hijab, then go to a Muslim country where they're wearing a hijab.
I, you know, good grief. And he was, at the time,
the very beginning of the, of this exchange, he was sexualizing her with his remarks. And you can
kind of hear them in the beginning. He sort of tells on himself in the beginning of the
clip, because you can kind of hear it. He's sexualizing her with his remarks. And again,
all of it is because he feels as though his point is that her not having the head covering and
all of that invites sexualization. And so he's telling her that because she disrespectfully doesn't
wear a hijab, that that means he is entitled to sexually slur her. So he's a piece of, he's
a thug. These, these two, they're absolute thugs. Now, does that mean, when you're at work,
does that mean that you can do what she did? I don't think she did herself any favors. First
off, you're an employee at work. And this is where I think you got to draw the line. You are at work
and you are wearing the company apron and the company has the right to say, we don't think that you
should have reacted that way. Now, I don't know if she's the manager or not. The manager should
have stepped in. At the very least, I probably would have called the police to come and handle
the situation and would have had them permanently barred from the store. I would have called
police and said these people are sexually propositioning me. They are harassing me. And I would
have, you never, ever, ever want to give the people who are the aggressors, the opportunity to
turn the tables on you and make themselves look like they're the victims.
and her response allowed for that to happen.
Now, I don't think that you need to say slurs or whatever.
I think the company, they didn't like the way that she handled it,
and they have every right to fire her.
I think it's kind of ridiculous that there's a go-fund me that started
because, again, when you're working a job,
and I've worked many a job where I've had to handle many a rowdy person.
I mean, when I was in college, I was a cocktail waitress on Friday and Saturday nights
and going through school.
And so I've seen, I've seen, and I've, you know, I've handled some things.
You can't respond to situations like that.
It's just not professional.
And I don't care if it's a Cinnabon or where it is.
You know, you got a job to do.
And so I feel like she, more than anything else, she can't control what the customers do,
but she can control what she does.
And she can control her reactions.
Had she just called the police and handled it that way, I think she would still have her job.
Plus, I also think that somebody probably would have created a GoFundMe for her anyway,
and she would have been maybe even more awarded for her behavior than this,
because she didn't make herself look great, right?
Yeah, she was the one who started being victimized,
but then with her behavior, these two Somalis that are absolute trash,
she ended up making them look like the victims because then they could say,
oh, it's a racial slur, because apparently, and this is in leftist world,
you can sexually proposition a woman, you can even commit battery, but, and that's considered less
than, if she were to say something demeaning about, you know, any kind of, any, with any sort of
racial aspect, then immediately that is, that's considered worse. So, I mean, it's, the GoFundMe that
they have for her is like $19,000 at this point. And everyone said, oh, well, she's a racist
employee, blah, blah, blah. But all the people that are spinning it, they are, they're literally forgetting
and they're leaving out how the man and the woman were immediately walked in and started it.
They immediately walked in and started harassing her.
And they started sexually slurring her.
But here's what's funny.
And I have this on my rundown.
This is what's funny.
Here's the other reason that I really don't care about this chick.
And I have this.
It's on our rundown here.
Kane, what does this show you in this link that I have?
Oh. She has a Biden Harris sign in her yard. It says women's choices on the ballot vote Democrat. Her name is Crystal Trees. This is a photo that she has on her own social media of all the Democrat signs in her yard. She has photos of herself on social media wearing Democrat stickers. She is a major Democrat. So I really don't care. I'm not going to donate to some racist Democrats go fund me. She's a Democrat. She's a Democrat.
So I like to watch them fight with each other. There you go. She voted probably voted to bring all the Somalis into Wisconsin. She probably voted for this. So this is what she has. Juan's showing you right now. That's the photo of her own signs in her own yard. And then she bragged another post about how she was a Biden supporter and then how she was a Harris supporter because she supported Harris in the last election. So it gets into all of that. It's very funny. So I just don't care. I don't care. I don't
care. She's a Democrat. Are you surprised? I'm not. I'm not at all. But I think it's, I think it's goof. I don't know. I just think, you know, people need to, you have to behave a certain way at work. There's a certain way that you have to behave at work. There are partners that help bring you the program. It is the Florida company, Keltec, their KS7 Gen 2 shotgun that they have. It's a pump action shotgun. They have a new version of it, the Gen 2. And with the KS7, you have all of the original
features, ultra-lightweight, just under seven pounds unloaded, compact bullpup design, maneuverability
in tight spaces, ambidextrous, downward shell ejection, 7 plus 1 capacity as well.
And you also have an MSRP of just 639.
Now, the new things that they've added, five-slot rail underneath, you can add grips, lights,
keep it flush and sleek with a cap if you want, and it has a smoother, it's a smoother pump,
for faster, cleaner cycling, plus enhanced durability as well.
It's from KELTEC, Florida, company made in America.
And you can learn more about the KS7 Gen 2 at KELTECWeapons.com.
That's KELTECWeapons.com.
Tell them Dana sent you.
And now, all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick 5.
Okay, so first up, this guy, well, this is not how this works.
When you go to a bank, what do you deposit in a bank?
You deposit money, right?
Not meth.
This guy from Ohio tried to deposit meth
into the bank's drive-thru
in their little pneumatic tube system thingy.
According to law enforcement,
46.
Dude, drugs and evil make you old-looking.
Jason Smith was booked on drug-related charges.
It occurred earlier this month.
The bank employee called deputies to say someone just deposited a crystal like substance.
Kind of looks like meth.
They sent a baggie up the shoot, not unlike the guy who was in our Florida man headline.
Just, yeah, baggie up the shoot.
And they tested it on site and they determined it was, in fact, methamphetamine.
He apparently sent the package.
How do you mess up and send the wrong thing in the shoot?
I am fascinated by how that accident happens.
Are you so high that you don't know the difference between cash, checks, and meth?
Who does that?
This is so weird.
So he's in Monroe County Jail.
He's in super big-time trouble, so just power outages cause cell doors to open at the South Central Correctional Center.
How is that the default?
setting for when the power goes out,
that the prison doors open. I thought
that was only like in movies, but apparently
that's a real thing, Kane.
I don't get it. I don't
get it. The default should be closed.
Yeah. You would think. It's the
South Central Correctional Center.
They had a power outage in two of the
housing wings, and all the doors
opened. It caused all the doors to
open, and this was in Lick and Mazara, Kane.
They, and then
shockingly, some of the inmates refused
to return to their cells and cause
property damage. So it just feels like
if the power goes out, the door should stay closed,
I think. Yeah,
so, I don't know. A man was
accused of stalking a minor and throwing
Molotov cocktails in somebody's house.
This is a hot mess. This is
Fox 2, Detroit.
Let's see.
He's got one of those haircuts
where they put the bowl on the head
and they just do the bangs right around the front.
He's got one of those 90s haircuts, right?
Those wannabe vanilla ice haircuts.
That's what he's got, 25-year-old Alex Neumar, was charged with the Molotov cocktail, possessing, manufacturing, et cetera.
Last question, I've been personally, not to make it about me, but I have been criticized as being a tool of Qatar.
And I just want to say what you already know, which is I never taken anything from your country and don't plan to.
I am, however, tomorrow buying a place in Qatar, because I am.
It's a high check.
In Doha, yeah.
Yeah, and I'm doing that because I like the city.
I think it's beautiful.
But also to make the statement that I'm an American and a free man,
and I'll be wherever I want to be.
I mean, I think it's such a crazy flex.
You know, you're so America first that you're just going to buy
dune front property in Doha, just to prove that you're just so American.
I'm so American, I'm going to buy communist control property in China
because I can.
So I'm my own man, American.
Welcome back to the program.
Graham, Dana Lash, with you. That was, uh, Carlson, I'm sorry, verbal typo, Tucker,
in, uh, Qatar. They had something there. I don't know. And he was out there talking to, uh,
uh, their leader there and saying that he's, you know, he's a free American. And because he's a
free American, he's going to show that he's a free American by buying, uh, property in
Qatar, in Doha, Dune front property. In a country that's 90%
populated by slave labor because of their laws. I don't know if you get, you know they have like a
whole system, right, where it's basically indentured servitude. I wrote about it over at Substack. That's why it's
very important to make sure you sign up for that stuff because, you know, you get all of this
information over there. It's also in one of my recent columns for the Washington Examiner, or sorry,
Washington Times. I have a piece in the Washington Times that late last week that ran. And it gets into
all of that. Because this.
it's, I just think that's a really weird flex.
You know what I mean?
That's a weird flex to just go and, I'm so American.
Look how American I am.
I'm going to buy property and cutter.
In Doha, I'm going to buy property here.
I mean, okay, that's an interesting flex.
I mean, one day you're rassling demons in bed,
and the next day you're buying sandfront property in cutter, you know.
I don't know.
Just curious about all of that.
You know what I'm curious about, too?
Kane? Where does one go to church over in Cutter?
Oh, that's a good question.
Hmm. You know, Christ is King and all. So where do you go to church in Qatar?
They're, they actually, the churches are all, they have to stay outside of Doha.
There's, and they can't actually, I mean, the fines are pretty big if you try to proselytize.
Just got to say. You can't have Christian symbols near.
Muslims, you can't do anything like that. You can't try to convert a Muslim there. I mean,
you could be put to death in Qatar if you try that, by the way. You can't share your faith
or any of your faith's materials with any Muslims in Qatar, and that includes casual
discussions. And that's, you could be in prison for up to five years, by the way. You cannot
organize anything. You cannot promote Christianity. You can't process.
idolatize at all because you could go to jail for a decade.
So I'm just wondering, you know, Christ is king.
Where do you go to church over there?
You also are not allowed to enter into a civil marriage.
Yeah, you can't get married over there.
You can't even be a citizen in Qatar.
You can't even get, because you have to be a Muslim to be a citizen in Qatar.
So, you know, I'm just like, I'm just really curious about this.
How just, you know, I'm wondering.
And I talked about this in my piece, we were talking about all of the.
the influencers that went over there during Thanksgiving.
And I wrote, hopefully, if any of them were gay, they kept it a secret because it's
gay to, it's illegal to be gay over there.
One of them was gay, sitting down on the balcony.
I guess maybe he had to keep that a secret so he didn't get thrown off the balcony that
he was doing a selfie on.
I'm just curious.
But it's very heavily restricted.
In fact, they only have a few, what they call religious, they call them religious complexes
because they can't even say church.
They can't even say church.
They can't say like, you know, they can't even say Christian complex.
It's just a religious complex is what they call it.
And they are partitioned off way outside of Doha to be away from all of the Muslim citizenry.
And they can't identify.
They can't put up a cross.
They can't say anything.
And you can only be a Christian quietly inside of the building.
Far away from the citizenry.
That's it.
that's it and you can't criticize any of the policies there like for instance you can't talk
about how a actually the majority population in doha is the slave labor that they used to build it
that's a fact that's and if you criticize it you're going to be punished that's you can't do that
it's the kafala employment system and if you criticize anything like if you were to criticize
the kafala employment system while you're over there uh you're going to
going to be punished under Penal Code, Penal Code Article 259, and that's punishment for anybody
who opposes questions or doubts Islamic tenants of the way that they were in the country.
And if you criticize it online, then that's a cyber, that violates their cybercrime statute,
law number 14, passed, finalized in 2014. That's online content that challenges any of the
social values or norms that they have over there. Only Muslims can be Qatari citizens, et cetera.
and there's no alcohol over there.
They had some at F1, but it's only in,
there's like a couple of very specially licensed hospitality venues,
of which the influencers were made sure
that they took selfies of themselves in there.
So I'm just, you know, just going to say.
So it's just so interesting to me,
you're going to flex so hard about being America first
by buying property like Hamas does.
You know, Hamas leaders, they stay in Doha,
just doing, I guess, you know, what Hamas leaders do.
started a trend, I guess. They started a trend. Good that. But it's, I think that the criticism
got to him. I think that he's, I would talk to him about it, but he won't come on my program to
discuss it with me because I guess it's not a safe space here. So I, you know, just that, you know,
I just thought it was interesting. But yeah, that's, I don't know if that, does that prove that
you're more American than somebody else because you can go buy property in Cutter?
Like, why wouldn't you buy more property in the United States, right?
If you wanted to prove how American you were.
By the way, criticizing someone's speech is not denying your Americanness.
In fact, that is the most American thing that you can do.
If someone says something with which you disagree, you can verbally disagree.
That's pretty American.
And I feel like that's getting lost in all of this as well.
It seems as though he's bristling at just mere criticism, and he thinks that it's un-American to criticize him, but not un-American for the rewriting of history that he promotes, the rewriting of American history, or the rewriting of the history of Israel, the rewriting of, you know, not just American history, but world history, World War II, et cetera.
It's just very, you know, it's very fascinating to me.
I see, you know, I saw there was another softball interview with that Fuentes kid.
Kid, he's like in his 20s, but he's, like, five foot two.
So when we say Nazi twink, it's like actually literally he's fairy sized.
But there was another, somebody else did a super softball interview.
Why are people so afraid to push back?
Because his engagement is entirely fabricated.
it's all synthetic. There have been two deep dives. First, Dada Republican did a huge deep dive on the Fuentes audience. Data Republican did. And then there was another separate deep dive into his background and his engagement and et cetera. And it shows that it's all literally fabricated. Every aspect of it is fabricated. And it's a lot of foreign based accounts that try to,
amplify the stuff that he says. There was Network Contagion Research Institute that released a forensic
breakdown over his rise over the past year, and it was driven by synthetic amplification,
foreign engagement clusters, and coordinated raid behavior. And it's pretty wild. And that's from
Dada Republican. There was another one that came out showing that his visibility is a coordinated
illusion. It's not grassroots. And it was driven by synchronized amplification networks,
anonymous booster accounts, foreign engagement farms in a media ecosystem that mistakes
manufactured noise for genuine political momentum. And it manipulated X's algorithms for him to
massively outperform like all of these other individuals. So it's, I mean, it really,
it can be absolutely manipulated. A lot of the stuff that you see on social media,
That's why certain people, they'll have like major, they'll have huge audiences, but they don't ever amount to anything in meat space, right?
Like when Fuentes says he was going to, when he was campaigning against Trump in 2020 and in this last election and he said that in 2020 was, he said he was going to go to Wisconsin or something like that and campaign against him, nothing that he ever does actually moves the needle in real space because he, everything is, is all of his engagement is mainly online.
Now, that's not to say, and I'm going to be very careful, don't ignore the disaffected adult males, younger adult males, who I think fall into this self-victimization cycle, because where you come from doesn't direct where you're going.
And I think that is some of it, but his amplification has been, like, pretty much entirely synthetic.
It's pretty, and I would be curious as to see some of Tucker Carlson's stuff as well, especially when he was, you know, praising.
at least the trains run on time in Russia and all of this stuff when he was over there praising
or when he sat down with Vladimir Putin and he didn't really push back at all and I think he
was actually kind of embarrassed by the questioning. That wasn't an interview. That was you just
went over there to hold a microphone for someone. There was no genuine pushback. There was no
engagement. I always question these people who talk such a tough game, but then when they sit in front
of someone that they need to ask hard questions of, they crumple. They don't actually push back.
they don't actually ask the hard questions.
Like, I've seen three different, every interview that I've ever seen, the Fuentes guy,
literally no one had the balls to actually ask hard questions and push back.
Not a single one.
And a lot of the people that engage in these interviews,
they really do pretend that they're such hard asses and not a single one of them
had the courage or the spine or the nads to actually ask the hard questions and push back.
And, like, show what a fruit this dude is.
I mean, literally.
So, I don't know.
There's a lot of stuff that's super, super inauthentic in social media.
And his ascension, I guess, for the lack of a better way to say it, is one of them.
