Absurd Truth
Podcast
Sponsored by Keltek
It's his life
mission to make
bad decisions
It's time for
Florida man
I wanted to come back
to this because we ran
out of time
for this one yesterday
because it was
such a weird story
It was the silly string
one where it was a
Florida
escort who was
arrested
because she attacked
a dude with
silly string
well the other
article that I found
said
because I'm like, if this guy literally filed like a battery charge because of silly string, then he deserves to get attacked.
I just felt like that was stupid.
But he had a forehead laceration.
So I think it was just more than the silly string itself.
It sounded like she also hit him with the can.
So yeah, the lady, the female was arrested for battery.
Change that up.
And spent the night in jail.
She bonded out for $1,000.
But yeah, that's what ended up happening with that.
I wanted to, you know, wanted to run that down.
A Florida man attempted a cell phone drop via drone to a sandstone prison inmate.
Okay, guys, mayor's, it's mayor of Kingstown.
Not, you can't, not everything that you see in television is going to, you know, like they have drones that drop phones and drugs in the jail.
You can't do that.
That's TV, y'all.
It's not going to work.
But this Florida man, Jose Moncada, he's 39 years old, was charged with introducing contraband into jail.
And apparently, according to Pine County Sheriff's Office, the deputies responded to a drone that was flying over the institute, the prism. And they said there was an object attached underneath it. They all saw it. So it wasn't like it was, you know, it wasn't being, it wasn't hiding itself, right? It was very obvious. And they watched this thing coming from a mile away bringing this phone. And they all saw it. They were recording it. They had it all in the cross airs. They had it all in the cross airs. They had it.
I saw everything.
And then a deputy later on initiated a traffic stop on a vehicle that was believed to have been involved with it.
And they found a black backpack in the trunk and et cetera, et cetera.
And they arrested the guy because he had all the stuff for the drone.
So they found the drone controller, cell phones, bubble wrap, all that stuff.
And a pay stub.
Like he kept his pay stub for doing this.
So he was taken into custody, obviously.
Goodness.
If Florida Maine illegally killed 13 American alligators, say wildlife officials.
Brevard County, he's facing charges after wildlife officials say he illegally killed 13 American
alligators, an arrest warrant for 21-year-old Jacob Latrell, Latreel of Edgewater,
says it happened over the course of several days in the St. John's River near a boat ramp.
they said that an illegal killing, possessing, or capturing of an American alligator is a third-degree
felony, which answers my question of, I keep seeing these alligators and clothes and like little t-shirts
being carried around by people in Florida. Can I do that? No, the answer is no, that's a third-degree
felony, as I just found out. So, um, a South Florida man, oh, oh, he chose violence today.
he torched the clubhouse of the enforcers motorcycle club um this guy's 47 did you see his mugshot
dude 47 year old man he's uh he i think he probably wants to be in prison at this point does he
maybe not on the street so much yeah this is some death wish stuff so he uh set fire he's they're
they're saying he's uh facing charges and connections
with arson at the clubhouse for the Enforcers motorcycle club in Palm Beach County.
They said that he faces one county, he's a second degree, arson, burglary, property mischief,
et cetera.
No motive has been disclosed.
But I would imagine that he probably is like, yes, please take me to jail.
I'll burn something else down if you try to let me go.
Yeah, I mean, it's literally, like, try to think of the meanest name for your biker club.
The enforce is pretty much as it.
Like, you couldn't pick the kittens and sunshine motorcycle.
club, their clubhouse to burn down, you pick the enforcers. The folks who will bring you the program
are friends at all family pharmacy. This website can never cease business because I will not know what to do.
I love all family pharmacy. I use it. Not only can you get the stuff that gatekeepers try to keep
from you, the hydroxychloricine Ivermectin the whole nine yards, NAD plus, all of that. But you can also
get your emergency medications and daily medications. You can get antibiotics. Like for instance,
if I know that I'm getting strep, I've had it enough.
I know what it is.
I'm not an idiot.
I'm not going to go out there and abuse antibiotics to the point of rendering them ineffective.
But I'm not going to go and pay like an $80, whatever fee, and go and have a doctor tell
me what I know I have.
And then have to wait and get the person.
No, no, no, I'm going to go to all family pharmacy, put in my symptoms.
The doctor's going to look at it, approve, and then send my prescription in and my
medications right to my house.
That's how it works.
You can get it in two to four days overnight in a pinch if you need it.
I also got my anti-naugia meds when I was.
went on the MRC cruise to Norway.

I've been hearing a lot about what I need to say and do tonight.
And the truth is I don't think what I have to say is going to make much of a difference.
If you like me, you like me.
If you don't, you don't.
I have no illusions about changing anyone's mind.
But I do want to make something clear because it's important to me as a human.
And that is, you understand that it was never my intention to make light of the murder of a young man.
I don't think there's anything funny about it.
I posted a message on Instagram on the day he was killed sending love to his family and asking for compassion.
And I meant it.
I still do.
Nor was it my intention to blame any specific group for the actions of what.
but it was obviously a deeply disturbed individual.
That was really the opposite of the point I was trying to make.
But I understand that to some that felt either time or unclear or maybe both.
And for those who think I did point a finger, I get why you're upset.
If the situation was reversed, there was a good chance.
I'd have felt the same way.
I have many friends and family members on the other side who I love.
I'm done with him making this.
Jimmy Kimmel wakes up like Candice Owens every single day.
And it was like, how can I make this about me?
I'm going to make it about me. It's all about me every day. I cannot stand that leftist mentality.
Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you are at the bottom of this first hour. I can't stand that
leftist mentality because that's what it is. So let me just remind everybody. He didn't just,
he didn't make a joke. He lied. He didn't make a joke. He went on air and he lied. He said the killer was
MAGA. And then he blamed the administration for causing it and he was trying what aboutism and all of that other stuff. He said, quote, this was the comment that really set off the listeners for Sinclair and Next Star. Quote, we hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.
That wasn't a joke.
Does that sound like a joke to you?
No, because it's not.
He lied.
Jimmy Kimmel can kiss my ass.
He went out there and he lied.
And by the way, Andrew Colvette, the spokesperson for TPSA, similarly, has the same sentiment.
Now, what would have been one thing?
Look, I'm not a monster.
I'm not like the left.
We're not like the left.
Because there's a purpose to what we do.
We don't go out there and fight just to fight.
It's all about waking people up, persuading people to come to reason.
If that's not the point, then it's just all a vanity game.
So we're not unrealistic.
We're not impractical.
We're not illiberal.
There is a point to it.
So it would have been one thing if Jimmy Kimmel had come out and said, you know what?
when I said that Maga was trying to characterize the guy who murdered, and he wasn't a kid,
he was in his 20s, the guy who murdered Charlie Kirk, as anything other than one of them in
scoring, I shouldn't have said that because it was wrong. We know that that's not the case.
We know the motive of the killer. I shouldn't have said it. I lied it. I'm sorry.
I would have totally accepted that, and this would have been very, this would have been a very different
segment today. That would have been fine. I don't expect him to make any donations or anything like
that. I just expected him to have the balls to be honest. He's such a coward. He is such a coward. He acts
like it's so brave to go on national television and lie his ass off. It's easy to do when everybody
covers for you. What's harder to do is tell the truth. But he's such a partisan ideologue. He doesn't
even have enough humanity in him to do that. By the way, he cries all the time. Lorraine reminded
me of this last night. She's like, oh my gosh, he cries all the time. Here he is. He's crying.
Here he's crying. He cries all the time. So I don't take this seriously. He's crying because he's
upset for himself. I watched his monologue. Only time I ever did it except for when he, the first
thing after Kirk to watch what he said. And I'm not going to do it again. He had his chance.
It's passed. He had gone out and he lied about it. He didn't make a joke. He was
vicious. He was vicious. And he lied about it. And he said that it was a MAGA person. It was one of them.
And even the audience in the time, they kind of didn't really laugh. They were like,
because he wasn't making a joke. He was stating something that was untrue. At a time before the
widow and family even had a chance to put Charlie's body in the ground, he was already lying about
that is why people were mad.
People weren't mad because he made a stupid joke.
That's all Jimmy Kimmel is is a stupid joke.
People weren't mad because he made a joke.
No one watches the damn show.
They were mad because he added to the maliciousness of the moment.
Because he lied.
He lied.
And then he had the audacity to say this.
Audio sound like four.
Over the weekend, a very beautiful moment.
I don't know if you saw this on Sunday.
Erica Kirk.
forgave the man who shot her husband.
She forgave him.
That is an example we should follow.
They shouldn't believe in the teachings of Jesus, as I do.
No, you don't.
There it was.
That's it.
A selfless act of grace, forgiveness from a grieving widow.
It touched me deeply.
Oh, my gosh.
And I hope it.
I'm not bad.
It touches many.
And if there's anything we should take from this tragedy to carry forward, I hope it can be that.
Not this.
He wants that kind of forgiveness.
He wants that kind of forgiveness, but he refuses to acknowledge what he did that was wrong.
He wants to, and let me be clear, what Jimmy Kimmel is wanting isn't just a forgiveness.
He wants a reconciliation without any acknowledgement of offense.
He wants a reconciliation to where you are the one.
this isn't he wants reconciliation without changing his ways he wants reconciliation so he can keep on
doing things like this audio sound bite six he's gunning for our journalists who he's suing them
he's bullying them over the weekend his foxy friend pete higseth announce a new policy that requires
journalists with pentagon press credentials to sign a pledge promising not to report information
that hasn't been explicitly authorized for release.
That includes unclassified information.
They want to pick and choose what the news is.
That's not exactly what happened either.
I know that's not as interesting as Muslim.
He immediately goes into spinning yarn again.
So when he was sitting here pretending to cry about forgiveness,
he was trying to make that about him.
See, I mean, she has forgiveness.
And so, you know, what I did was way less worse.
So you can forgive me.
That's what it was.
It was like a subtle emotion.
blackmail. That's not working. He didn't apologize one single time. Not once. But yet we're
expected to just welcome him back on air. No, we're not doing that anymore. Absolutely not. Pound
Sand. He's part of the problem. Rhetoric like Jimmy Kimmel's is what got Charlie Kirk killed.
Because people out there get incited. Words aren't violence, but the left sure is hell believes that they are
so that they can use violence to justify
murdering you over your words.
And Jimmy Kimmel is culpable.
He is part of that problem.
I mean, this was not
him asking
a good faith,
sincere ask.
Because he didn't say,
and yes, he needs to.
He didn't apologize
for lying. He keeps
trying to dodge and say,
well, I, you know, for a joke,
etc. So he's still lying.
He's still lying now.
His behavior hasn't changed.
He hasn't learned anything about it, except he feels sorry for himself.
I'm so sorry I went out there and lied.
I'm so sorry that I added to the fire of the moment.
I'm so sorry that I poured more poison into the ear of the nation's leftists at a time when we should be toning everything down.
So no, partners that bring you the program, our friends over at Caltech, the PR 57.
It is a rotary barrel pistol chambered in 5.7, 40%
lighter than the competition. So if you're looking to conceal carry a 5-7, this is something you
should look at. They accomplish the lightness and the diminutive size in a couple of different
ways. The rotary barrel, number one, it's a one-of-its-kind rotary barrel pistol, so that
contributes to it, but also the very unique way that they load. It's a top loading design,
so it replaces traditional magazines with stripper clips. So you have a slimmer carry profile,
20 plus 1 capacity. Low recoil for ease of use and accuracy, simple, reliable, and affordable. MSRP, only
399. Learn more about the PR 57 Chamber and 5-7 at Keltec Weapons.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.
2.2 billion dollar solar plant in California was turned off after years of wasted money.
It was described as never living up to its promises.
We're so shocked by this.
Yes, it costs two.
Actually, they think some.
It's like an estimation, $2.2.2 billion to go game.
This facility, I don't know if you know this.
This is the one that fries birds in midair.
This was the one that was actually killing wildlife.
Chicken to go.
Kind.
I'm kidding.
I'm just kidding.
Are you hungry?
No.
But I do hate the solar stuff.
I hate all this.
It makes me hate all of it.
And it makes me want to just go and.
burn coal and use a lot of styrofoam.
I'm not going to lie.
So the power plant, $2.2.2 billion to build.
Construction began in 2010, completed in 2014.
Now it's going to close because it couldn't efficiently generate solar energy.
Can't even make this up.
And remember, Barack Obama gave it lots of money.
This is Solendra Part 2.
It is.
It's Sylindra Part 2.
He gave it a lot of money.
He gave it $1.6 billion.
So, yeah, that's kind of a big deal.
MLB is going to use robot umpires. This is how it starts. First you got these robots vacuum in y'all's house.
Now you've got the robots officiating your baseball games. So they are getting called up robot umpires.
The Major League Baseball, their 11-man competition committee approved use of the automated ball strike system for 26.
Human plate umpires will still call balls and strikes, but now teams can challenge two calls per game and get additional peals and extra innings.
challenges must be made by a pitcher,
catcher, a batter, and signaled by
tapping their helmet or cap.
So we'll see how that. What do you think about that,
Kane? I welcome it because
sometimes behind the plate, it gets so frustrating
when you see these bumps, and then
let's not even bring in Angel Hernandez into this
conversation. Yeah.
Democrats handling open inquiries into the
handling of the Tom Homan investigation.
Remember, the DOJ was like, there's no
they're there, and this is the stupidest story ever.
But they're trying to make something of it.
They're desperately trying to
make something of it. But everyone else, I mean, again, these are the same people that also wanted
you to believe that the Hunter Biden laptop wasn't a real thing. Look, we all think that if an elected
or an official in the cabinet, if they are doing this kind of thing, nobody wants that. However,
I just, I need actual evidence. And so far, all I have is the level of Russia gate accusations.
I'm just done with it. Democrats, okay, let's see, China floods the world with cheap exports
after POTUS's tariffs.
Like after, I thought that was all they did.
Yeah, cheap exports.
That's all they do.
And why?
I feel like the person who writes for the finance section over at Yahoo,
maybe needs a little bit more time to cook in this world
before writing another story again.
NASA plane's first crude moon mission in 50 years
slated for February of 2026.
They said they hoped to send us.
astronauts on a 10-day trip around the moon as soon as February.
They previously committed to launching no later than the end of April, but now they want to
bring the mission forward. It's been 50 years since we've had like any kind of
crewed-by-man lunar mission. And NASA's going to send four astronauts there and back to
test symptoms, to test systems, rather. So that's something I think we would all watch.
I wonder if like SpaceX is going to be involved in all of that as well. It seems
seems like that could be a possibility.
His POTUS going to the escalator, and he's just going up and then all of us up, it stops.
And they look back.
Did you see Melania jolt?
I mean, that's kind of dangerous.
It's weird how the escalator totally stopped working right when,
POTUS
touched it.
I mean, in addition to his mic
not working, the moment that
he went up to speak
and then his teleprompter not
working. One time,
okay, that's an accident. Twice
is a question mark. Three, it's a trend.
Welcome back to the program. Bottom of this third hour.
Now, consider this too.
This was from
the
pull this up, forgive me for a moment.
it's the times.
So they said this was from last week.
Here was a line in this piece.
So this article, and if you, by the way, if you're a subscriber over at Substack,
my newsletter, chapter and verse, you have this article.
The headline was, is Trump any closer to his Nobel Peace Prize will see at the UN.
And it was published Sunday, September 21st, 2025.
And in this piece, they note, quote, to Mark Trump's arrival,
you and staff members have joked that they may turn off the escalators and the elevators and simply tell him they ran out of money so he has to walk up the stairs end quote that was on sunday kane now we played get this audio ready for me that you just dropped that was on sunday that they did that and it wasn't just the escalators it was also again the microphone and the teleprompter
And it's not, these aren't conspiracy theories.
You have a left-wing newspaper citing the fact that UN staffers were openly joking about stopping escalators and messing with other things so that they could say, well, it's because you're not giving us more money, which, by the way, the UN is an exercise in vanity that we participate in and we pride ourselves in being so civil.
and we all come together and we sit around this table.
But nothing ever actually gets done.
It's more like a veneer.
Nothing ever actually gets done.
They don't ever actually do anything.
It's entirely funded and done.
And really, everybody else participates by the grace of the United States.
That's it.
And they occupy some pretty prized and expensive real estate right in Manhattan, right by the Hudson.
So just saying, I, um,
It doesn't sound like this was an accident.
Listen to Ned Price.
He was Biden's former State Department spokesperson.
Listen to what he said here.
Very telling.
On that escalator and the escalator stopped.
Well, I imagine one of the reasons that escalator stopped is because his administration has withheld hundreds of millions of dollars in funding over his first term in office and during the first eight months or so of his current term to the UN.
and the UN itself is falling apart.
The UN itself is, I mean, they've been given so much money over the years.
And you know what?
The UN, it wants more money, but it does nothing to prevent the persecution of Christians.
They are the most victimized religion across the globe.
And they're the most victimized religion across the globe, largely due to Islamic forces.
That's true.
They constantly, they don't acknowledge the truth about climate.
climate change policies and how it's designed to punish prosperous nations and then uplift
nations that literally are the number one contributor to pollution in the world, which is China.
They do nothing about drug trade on the open seas. They do nothing about the terrorism and
terrorists exploiting the southern border. They do nothing about bio weapons. They want to sit
back and let every single thing that happens in Europe or it happens in, you know, anywhere
else that the United States can take care of it. They haven't done anything to help neutralize the
level of Russian aggression that's mostly facilitated by the heavy purchase of Russian oil by other
countries, incredibly hypocritical, considering that there are NATO countries that purchase Russian
oil. It's just very, very weird. I mean, and to say nothing of what's happening in Gaza.
And then they have the audacity to demand more money.
oh well it's because we're not getting as many billions as we were so he puts on it he gets put on an
escalator they that they were like actually trying to shame him and right as he gets to start his
speech the teleprompter went out and then the mic runs out or the mic didn't work and it was just
very interesting again one thing is an accident but three things is bad but it stopped right
in the middle i mean the first lady she could have fallen i mean if she didn't
didn't have great balance and wasn't fit, she would have fallen.
It was Joe Biden. He would have fallen on his face.
You had this article that came out noting that these UN staffers were joking about openly,
about turning this stuff off. Now, I think that they need to, I would like for them,
yes, I think that we should find out what did that. And if it turns out that people were
sabotaging it, then I think that they should be fired, of course.
I mean, I think that they should be publicly dragged, but I mean, yes, fired also with that.
So, I don't know. To me, it's just, it's like super petty. And did they think that him not having
a teleprompter was going to shut him up? Have they met him? That's like their worst nightmare.
Because instead of doing a short 20-minute speech, now he's going to lambast you for three hours.
What were they thinking? That's not the way to do it. But I,
I, to me, I just think that it just seemed like it was they were plotting to do it and that it was on purpose.
And you got the sense that it was on purpose too, Kane, didn't you?
Without a doubt.
You could see it because there was video of it too where before Trump even approached the escalator,
that thing was working like a charm, no problem for the longest time.
And as soon as they got right up there, it shuts off that, no.
I'm sorry.
That's not how it goes.
Very weird.
Very, very weird.
I got to say, to me, I just, I just.
I just don't believe in coincidences like that at all.
I don't believe in coincidences.
So it just seems, you know, like there was something to it.
There was something to it.
And if they're mad because the president was expecting the UN to kind of fulfill the expectations of the investment that other leaders unwisely put in them, then that's their problem.
But, I mean, it's a very big problem for them.
But it, yes, it absolutely did seem like.
It was on purpose.
It did.
