Dana Lashes
Absurd Truth podcast,
sponsored by Keltec.
It's his life mission
to make bad decisions.
It's time for Florida man.
All right,
Kane and I are really trying to figure this one out.
So the headline is this.
A quadriplegic YouTube star.
First off, YouTube star.
Makes me laugh.
This dude who's on YouTube,
who's a quadriplegic,
went to court and was charged somehow with striking a Miami cop with his wheelchair.
And even the judge is like, I've never seen a case like this.
32-year-old Brian Amastha is facing two counts of battery on a police officer.
Despite being unable to utilize his limbs, Amastha is accused of hitting the officer.
the guy on YouTube, I'm not saying YouTube star, Amasa denies the allegations against him.
The quadriplegic YouTuber was charged with striking a Miami cop with his wheelchair.
In a bizarre incident, the likes of which the judge has said he has never before seen,
Bryant Amastha, known as recording artist El Valiente,
is facing two counts of battery on a law enforcement officer.
But he apparently is accused of views.
using his motorized wheelchair and allegedly spitting on the officer.
Well, we did wonder how this was going to, I can't, dude, I cannot with the screen grabs of his videos.
The YouTuber boasts a substantial following.
He's amassed nearly 100,000 followers and somehow shares music videos featuring himself singing surrounded by dancing women and bikinis,
who were clearly being paid.
When asked if he spit on the cop, Amasa told Local 10,
I absolutely did not.
He said, she bumped my wheelchair because I was standing in the driveway, and the driveway is thin.
And he said, so I suffer from acid reflux, and I normally spit, and I spat in a totally different direction.
Wow.
I don't know, man.
Kane, do you want to...
I don't.
I have absolutely no desire to comment on this particular story.
Thank you, though.
Appreciate the offer.
But no.
Oh my gosh. I just can't even with the screen grabs.
There's no body cam footage of the incident.
So it's like he said, she said, but still.
But how do you get two counts?
You're quadriplegic and you get two counts of battery.
Amess, attorney told the judge,
obviously my client is not a flight risk.
But wait, there's more.
A Florida man was arrested for carving his name into a deputy's patrol car.
I just wanted to go back to prison, said the Florida man.
Enderlin-Leonce, 33, was
arrested on April 29th, booked in a Broward County Jail on criminal mischief.
Now, according to Margate, police department's arrest affidavit, a witness reported seeing
Leonce vandalizing the patrol car before taking off. They noticed that the suspect had used a metal
tool to etch, quote, the name is Enderlin Leonce, end quote, on the driver's side,
on the driver's side hood of the patrol vehicle.
Yes. Well, what's that name?
Enderlin Leonce.
We took a while. Carved that into the car.
And the officer, well, wait, there's more.
The officer met with Leonce at his home.
And when asked if he did it, Leonz allegedly said, quote, I did it.
I committed a crime and I should be going to jail.
In quote.
So he was first taken up to the hospital because they're like, you're crazy.
And then they took him to jail.
So there's a thousand dollar damage to the patrol car.
So they got, yeah.
Oh, my gosh.
Let's see.
We've got a shirtless Florida man with Wendy's beef caught on camera, threatening to rob a Wendy's,
a man accused of trying to set his girlfriend on fire.
We also have a Florida man who plants tracking devices on his roommate's van.
Oh, yes, there's tons, tons.
We have a naked woman, what, naked Florida woman who broke into her neighbor's house.
And, yeah, we got somebody who took a bite out of a deputy's head.
That's all coming up tomorrow.
Is mercury in retrograde?
No, Mercury's out of retrograde.
This is just Florida.
Is it a full moon or something?
No, it's just Florida.
It's Australia of America.
That's what it is.
That's what's happening here.
Oh, and then we got this one real quick.
A Florida man crawled through floorboards during a getaway.
Wanted Florida man, 19-year-old Gage Dennis, your name is backwards,
faces charges of attempted first-degree murder and burglary.
He's got a nice tat above his eyebrow, and he tried hiding under a house.
But guess what?
That didn't work.
The police found him.
Hi, I'm Margaret, a rhetoric and media major at Hillsdale College.
Here's Hillsdale President Dr. Larry Arne with a Constitution Minute.
Many argue today that the Constitution is outdated because it addresses problems peculiar to the 18th century so long ago.
And some of it does read sort of quaintly.
But consider the injunction against titles of nobility in Article 1, Section 9, for example.
Is that so outdated?
The purpose of that injunction is to prevent the government granting
special privileges for partisan reasons.
This strikes at the rule of law, the rule under which were all to be treated the same.
The crony capitalism so common today, where the government gives favors and tax dollars to some
businesses and advantages over others, is exactly the kind of thing the Constitution was meant to
prohibit. The Constitution is not outdated at all.

Young black kids growing up in the Bronx who don't even know what the word,
computer is. They don't know. They don't know these things. And I want the world open up to all of them
because when you have their diverse voices, innovating solutions through technology,
then you're really addressing society's broader challenges. That's still, this is still one of
the nuttiest sound bites that I have heard in some time. And that's New York Governor Kathy Hockel,
who's, I mean, you heard exactly what she said there. She's saying that young black kids in the Bronx
don't know what a computer is.
That seems like racist does all get out,
what she said there,
intentionally or not,
whether she intentionally meant to cause offense.
That's insane.
Just, I'm like without,
wow, welcome back to the program.
Dana Lash with you.
Top of this third hour,
we've got Congressman Jim Jordan
is going to be joining.
He's on the floor right now voting.
He's going to be joining us at the bottom of the hour now.
But we'll,
we're going to have a whole bunch of stuff to talk about.
But this right here, the reason I bring this up is because there's no accountability when Democrats show you who they are.
There's like little to no accountability.
And this, I mean, she's the governor of New York.
I was reading this story about this fraternity at Old Miss.
and this fraternity at Old Miss,
I think you saw some of the
video that was out there.
I know that there were a lot of the photos
and that that were out there.
I'm pulling this up.
The protests that were taking place
on the quad at Old Miss,
they had the pro-Hamas protesters out there,
and they were really,
after you had the frat boys come out at UNC,
you had the frat boys come out
protecting the flag
and then you had fraternities
coming out at all these different universities
and now you've got to come up with a way
you've got to make somebody the avatar
to try to take down all the fraternities.
So there was like one frat member
who was in a massive group
of other fraternity members
and there were these pro-Hamas
protesters that were separated
by law enforcement
from the anti-Hamas
protesters. And you,
heard some of the heinous stuff that some of the pro-hamas protesters have been not just doing,
but saying to everybody. I mean, I've watched white pro-Hamas protesters call black cops,
Uncle Tom's at these riots and, and scream in their faces and racially abuse them and all this other
stuff. And that's okay with the left. So they get this one lady who apparently was already
like racially slurring the frat boys from what people who were on the ground were saying.
And so you got everybody feeding tensions, right?
You got her doing this.
You got the fraternity that's screaming at her.
And she's pushing buttons.
And there was one fraternity member out of a whole mob of them there who was caught making, according to the report, making monkey noises to her.
And because she's a black woman.
And now they're saying that the college has to expel him.
No, they don't.
the fraternity, and a lot of us were like, well, the fraternity will take care of it if they, you know, if they feel, the accusations are true and they feel that he, uh, embarrassed or caused, you know, injury to the fraternity. And they did. They, they expelled him. The fraternity kicked him out. He was expelled from the college fraternity Friday. And they said that, you know, that particular, like any kind of racist abuse, they said, compromises the values of Phi Delta Theta.
So that fight delta theta has already done more than any of these other college organizations to these racist anti-Semites that are all over these college campuses screaming at black cops and also screaming anti-Semitic abuse at Jewish students.
And there's tons of video that exists out there at more universities than I can count with both of my hands.
So it is not an exception.
It is the rule of these protesters.
out of all of these frets
all across the
all across the United States
at all these college campuses
they got one dude
who made monkey noises
at this lady
and apparently they were trading
racial abuse
back and forth to each other
I don't know
that's what
all I saw was the screen grab
of the cool dude
and the Stars and Stripes
overalls
and it was funny
so the 21 year old
student and I'm not
he's a finance major
I'm not sharing his name
he's a 21
year old student and he was kicked out of his fraternity. Now, is what Kathy Hockel just said
as bad as what he did? She went out in front of people and said black kids were too stupid to know what
a computer is. Now, consider the difference here. He is, this is a 21 year old frat member
who is at an anti-Hamas event. So there's,
It's a little bit of a different environment.
This is a governor who's twice his age, over twice his age,
who's talking to members of the press and saying this stuff.
And she gets to make policy, a shepherd policy through.
Do you think that there's going to be any accountability for her?
This 21-year-old was kicked out of his fret.
the governor wasn't even asked to apologize. Furthermore, none of these groups at all of these
college campuses, none of them have been asked to apologize because they sanction this behavior.
They sanctioned the anti-Semitism. They sanctioned the racial abuse towards Hispanic and black
police officers. Some of the stuff that these protesters have screamed at cops who are not white
is heinous. And these cops, God love him. I watched one Hispanic cop be slurred six ways to Sunday.
I watched another black police officer be ridiculed and called racial epithets and all this stuff
by white progressive protesters, pro-Hamas protesters. Why isn't the media gone and searched out
the identity of these racists that have been screaming at these cops? Or what about the racist?
like the white protesters,
was it Columbia or New York City College
that they surrounded a young
male Jewish student who had his book bag
and was literally trying to get to class.
He ended up missing his class
because they formed a circle around him
and then they started shouting slurs at him.
On video, I can't even play.
This stuff that I'm playing on air for you
or I'm talking about,
I can't even play on air.
What about where,
do we have, I don't even know if I can play
this. The audio of these
what is it, the urban infatada,
the urban, what is it the store?
Forever 21 Infantata.
These chicks that were screaming at cops
at the Met Gala. Did you guys see this? So they tried to disrupt the
Met Gala. And there were these chicks that were screaming at the cops.
I can't even, I don't even think I can play it. I don't think we can play it.
They were calling them Piggy, Piggy, Piggy. No, but man,
the media went and found this 21
year old got him kicked out of his right they want him kicked out of college no absolutely not oh the
sub 2k the gen 3 sub 2k so the sub 2k with keltech i don't know if you've i mean you should have
you know check this out this uh you should have checked it out at some point but the sub 2k from keltec
is an awesome 9mm carbine i have the previous iteration of this uh but the new the new one the gen 3 is
shipping now and it has a lot of upgrades on it for
first and foremost, you don't have to detach your favorite optics on it anymore just to fold it in
half. Previously, you did. You would have to take your optics off and store them and all that because
you don't have to do that now. It's just this simple twist and fold the rotating patent pending
fore end. You can just twist it, turn it, and it immediately folds everything, optics and all right
in half. And it also just as quickly and easily deploys it too, which is really nice. It's just great.
Like if you're going hiking, you're going out and you want to, you know, space is a priority.
The 9mm carbine sub 2K Gen 3 is perfect for that.
Also, it takes Glock Mags.
The mags for Glock 19.
I have Glock 19 fits flush.
Also, they have redesigned mechanics for that trigger as well.
Lightened 5 pound pool.
That translates to improved accuracy.
Actions updated.
It's easier to rack.
The internal buffer means softer recoil.
This is just a great carbine.
I really like the sub 2K.
I think you got to have one in your personal collection.
I would recommend the Gen 3 because I'm lazy and I don't want to take my optics off.
Just be honest about it.
It's Keltec made in Florida, family-owned values, family-made at their best.
You got to check it out online yourself.
Keltakweapons.com, the sub-2K Gen 3, K-E-L-T-E-C, Weapons.com.
Tell them Dana sent you.
And now, all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick 5.
So apparently Panera, they're phasing out.
I never had this over there, but they have what they call charged lemonade.
How much caffeine's in this thing?
And so they did it because apparently people are dying.
There was a three lawsuits.
There's a 28-year-old woman who said that the beverage left her with, quote, permanent cardiac injuries.
Wait, Kane.
Are we sure it wasn't?
It can't possibly be the vaccine.
Interesting.
They had a second, they had a, the second lawsuit was filed in December by a Florida man who died.
He died after drinking the charge of lemonade.
He has a chromosomal deficiency disorder development delay.
The first one was a 21-year-old, Penn, yeah, University of Penn student, who had a heart condition, who drank charged lemonade and it killed her.
They said.
And they said that healthy adults, according to the FDA, can generally safely consume 400 milligrams of caffeine,
day.
The, oh, ew.
Yeah.
So these apparently have like just around 400 milligrams of caffeine per day and a 30 ounce.
Wow.
That's a lot.
So maybe don't.
Just, just saying.
I need to go, because I did my, I did my 12 o'clock headlines for this one, I think.
So apparently they say more women are working now than at any time in U.S. history.
And feminist, fourth wave, fifth wave, 11th way, I don't know.
They're acting like this is a good thing.
No, the reason more women are working now than ever is because the economy is so bad.
You have to have everybody work.
Women fought really hard for a number of years to be able to stay at home and raise their family,
and that shouldn't be treated as a luxury.
But what third and fourth way feminism is done is it's not only treated it as a luxury,
but it treats women who have the ability and who choose to do so,
even though they have to sacrifice quite a lot to raise their children.
and they treat them as second-class citizens.
Men don't women do.
So, you know, you get what you, you get what you vote for.
The households are wincing at the price of going green.
Because talk about another luxury.
This is just idolatry of the wealthy.
Idolism of the wealthy.
They said that when, oh my gosh, this is a horrible piece.
Basically, it's expensive,
and it's like three times more expensive
than what people are anticipating it being,
and they didn't properly save to go green,
and they're not able to fully go green.
and then they're staying with coal and gas.
Let's see.
The rising number of men who don't want to work,
it says because the incoming generation workforce,
they've been coddled and they expect the world to coddle them.
They're saying that people don't want to work anymore.
I do think that there's something to that.
I do think they said 89% of working age men, BLS,
they're trying to find a job, actively looking at it for a job.
Stay with us.
And I understand that they're attacking me for it, Jesse.
Yeah, they are.
So they're also attacking you.
I guess you said you met Kim Jong-un.
Did you meet him?
I've been to the DMZ.
I've been to North Korea.
You know, people, I don't talk about my conversations with world leaders.
And so when I looked at the book and I saw that excerpt, I decided to make the change to the content of the book.
And that's been done.
So you didn't have a conversation with Kim when you were at the DMZ?
I don't have conversations about my conversations with world leaders.
I've been working on policy for 30 years, Jesse.
And that's what most people don't remember about me.
is I'm old. I'm a mom. I'm a grandma. I've got three little grandbabies.
You're not that old. So maybe you didn't have a conversation with Kim, but you don't want to talk.
I will not talk about my personal conversation. Well, then why did you put it in a book?
And then why did you read it for your audiobook? And then why did you agree to excerpt that portion of your book for promotional materials to promote the book that you included it in? And then you read the audiobook for?
I mean, did you not think that people would look at that and go, huh?
She's coming on the show to talk about books.
Maybe we should ask her about this portion in her book.
So it's everybody else's fault because they read what you put in your book.
And then they heard what you read.
You read it for the audiobook.
She read her audio book for this book.
She didn't, while she was reading this, she didn't go, wait a minute now.
That didn't happen.
She just read it.
And then now she's like, wait a minute.
These people are asking me hard questions.
Maybe it didn't happen.
Imagine that.
Golly, this is so bad.
Welcome back to the program.
Dana Lash with you.
Obviously, that was South Dakota Governor Christy Noam, who will not stop doing interviews.
Oh, my gosh.
She wants to be in the gravel pit.
She wants to be in the gravel pit.
That's where she is.
She will not step.
She was on, and Jesse Waters,
Jesse is not a confrontational dude to his own side.
And I could,
you could see it on his face.
Like he was greatly amused by this.
Well,
I'm not going to have conversations,
Jesse,
with my,
about,
with world leaders.
I'm not going to have conversations that I put in my book
and talked about and then read the audio book for and then excerpted it for
promotional materials.
I'm not going to talk about the things that I put in my book.
I don't want anybody who,
who,
who,
just so unawares commits this many unforced errors in the White House or in the VP office.
I don't know.
I, it just, it just doesn't stop.
There's a piece that went out on Substack last night about this because she was, she did two
interviews on Sunday.
Then she had two interviews yesterday.
And then she finished her night on with Jesse Waters about this.
and it just does not.
And apparently her team, by the way, she tried putting the dog story.
And we're not even talking about the dog story anymore.
Now we're talking about making up things with world leaders to try to make yourself look tough.
And that's what this book was.
This book, what did she call it?
No Way Back or something like that.
What is it?
I think she probably wanted to title it, you know, pick me.
I'm a hard ass.
And she, because that's what it sounds like this book is just like a bunch of stories designed to make her look like tough and decisive.
right. So apparently two years ago, she's got two autobiographies out. I don't understand. She's had two
autobiographies out like in the span of like six years. You need two? I don't know. Okay. Okay.
Are they different from each other? I don't know. She's had two books out about herself.
She put out two. Dude, I don't know. It's we are in. Everybody's a brand and everyone's a product. Sometimes you got to sell yourself twice. I don't know. But she apparently,
wanted to include that in the last book she did, her memoir.
And they, she was, she wanted it because she thought it showed her as, you know, she's decisive and she's tough and, you know, all of this.
And they had a ghost writer.
They all, everybody, she was with a Hachette.
They had an imprint.
Hachette was with what, uh, hands off my gun came out with, uh, Hachette Center Street.
And apparently they thought it was just a dumb, bad taste thing.
And they thought it would actually do more damage to her than help her.
So they said, no, you've got to cut this thing.
Cut it out.
But she was bound and determined to have it in.
Yeah, her first book was, not my first radio lessons from the Heartland.
That was her first autobiography.
So literally in this, from 2022, she had an autobiography.
And now she has another autobiography out.
Every two years she comes out with an autobiography.
I mean, I think Mark Twain got one.
And so they told her, you can't put that in this book.
That's ridiculous.
And it doesn't make you look tough.
It makes you look kind of goofy.
And there are a lot of ranch people in farm.
My husband grew up on a farm that dealt with similar issues but didn't deal with them like that.
And there are ways to tell stories to make yourself look decisive without looking like it's contrived and tried too hard.
So they thought it was in bad taste.
They made her cut it.
She was hell bent on including that in one of these stories.
She wanted to show people.
She was tough.
Rootin and Tootin and all this.
I don't know.
So she put it in this book.
Apparently there were no gatekeepers for this book.
Oh, yeah, it's no going back.
That's her.
Jeez.
So, I don't know.
It just, and it was Dakota Scout,
a local paper that first reported
the North Korea thing didn't happen.
And yeah.
So this,
I just
She needs to maybe
Stop doing press
She needs to stop doing press
Because it's
It's not good
Audio Sound by 11
This
Is this still with Waters
This is the other part of the Waters interview
Yeah go ahead
This is 11
Listen to this
Okay I just
But you didn't answer my question
When you posted pictures
And video of yourself
Recording the audio book
When you recorded your own audio book
You didn't notice
I'm not going to discuss
About my meetings with world leaders
Oh my gosh, you put it in the book again.
Did you want to talk about something else today?
No, I just wanted to know.
I mean, we're just trying to get a straight answer from it.
This is Betty.
You did.
I mean, and I took responsibility for it.
The buck stops with me.
This anecdote, I should not have put in the book.
And I asked to have it taken out and it is.
Okay.
So then it gets into Audio Summit by 10.
Again, she read the audiobook.
I read the audio book for my first book.
Or a second one.
You really get to go over.
because they stop you every, like, you know, they want you to enunciate a certain way or hit
this emphasis. I mean, you're directed with it. So you become doubly familiar. And she had a ghost
writer. So that was probably maybe the first time she read her book was when she did the audio
book. But it's at that point, wouldn't you have caught it when you're talking about how you stare
down Kim Jong-un? Well, that's what Elizabeth Vargas, of whom I'm not a fan. But, you know,
audio somebody 10, she asked her that. Listen. You said you, when you learned of it, you immediately
took action. You recorded the whole book and the audio book. You read this whole
passage out loud. Why didn't you take it out then when you read the audiobook? You know, I've
traveled for years. I've been involved in policy for almost 30 years. And so I've gone all across the
world. I've met with world leaders. So you didn't realize when this was brought to my audio book.
When I was brought to my attention and it was, I asked the publisher if they would release the name and they did.
answer the question. That's like a Joe Biden level answer. She's like this is some Joe Biden stuff.
This is like what Joe Biden would do. Okay, why did you read it in the book? Well, I've traveled all over the
world. Here's my can dancer. I'm not going to depart from my can dancer. I've traveled all over
the world and policy and that stuff. Shrimp and grits. Thanks for tuning in to today's edition
