Dana Lashes of Surr Truth podcast, sponsored by Keltec.
It's his life mission to make bad decisions.
It's time for Florida, man.
I read this story because it's insane.
The headline is from the CBS affiliate in Martin County, Florida.
It said from strip club to loan to arson, from strip club to him to arson attempt,
how a $100 debt ignited into your tragedy.
So it talks about this Uber driver who,
deputies who stopped a deadly arson attempt. But the reason they were able to stop it is because the guy,
the Florida made that the Uber driver picked up said he's on his way. He's going to go burn down his
friend's trailer and he's going to be using some gasoline that he has because his friend has not
paid back a $100 loan. He gave him to go to a strip club and have a knot out. And then so the Uber
driver was able to signal to authorities and they arrested this guy. This is a crazy story.
So they picked the guy up
And the Carlos Flores
He was livid
33 year olds
He was livid because he gave his friend
He said $100 to go to the strip club
Why would you do that?
And then his friend never paid it back
His friend insisted that he did
But Flores said it didn't happen
So he literally hired an Uber driver
To drive him to his friend's house
Where he was going to burn down his friend's trailer
And I guess just get in the Uber and go back
Like how was that going to work?
I don't know
The driver was like understandably alarmed
And so he discreetly alerted the deputies.
And he, yeah, so they had Martin County sheriffs.
I mean, then they smelled the gas on it.
Like, he smelled that he had accelerant on him.
So he also had a knife.
And so I guess he was going to stab his friend.
He was, he got out.
And the Uber driver, they were like, I guess, you know, act normally.
And the deputies apprehended Flores.
But Flores was able to pour out some gasoline around the house and he was going to light it.
That's crazy.
So I honestly could not be an Uber driver because I think it's harder if you.
your check. But also, you got to be in a vehicle with weirdos sometimes, right? Like, I appreciate the
drivers that go above and beyond and they make it nice, you know, and they got like water or sand. I mean,
I always love giving them guys like great ratings. But I would be weird. Like, what if you get a jack wagon
who's like bringing gas to his friend's trailer or Barney's house down? Like, what if you,
you got to give that guy right? And you, and you got to commit. Like, you don't even know he's crazy
until the journey has begun, right? You know, drivers can give you ratings too. What kind of rating
you think that guy got?
I bet he can't overtake Uber again.
Yeah, I bet he can't.
So this man was at a campsite.
Got to talk about this guy.
Yeah, if you would imagine what people who have meth at a campsite would look like.
Yeah, that's about right.
Florida man was arrested on a drug charge after a methamphetamine was found at his campsite near Holmes Creek boat ramp.
41-year-old Michael Ryan Forbes is charged with possession of meth.
He was also going to manufacture sell or deliver, $2,500 bond.
They said that the sheriff's deputies were summoned to Holmes Creek boat because of a suspicious
activity. And of course, they found people with backpacks loaded up with meth and glass pipes
and all kinds of stuff. And they busted like a whole bunch of people. So I guess they were,
man, one of the guys came. Tell me that you see the guy with the long hair who literally looks
like he was hired. He's like, he's like a cat. He looks like if a sloth became a person
and went to jail for meth, it would be this guy. Forty-year-old. He's 48. This guy. Oh, no,
is this a 52-year-old or the 48-year-old?
I mean, he looks, I can't tell.
Dude.
Yeah, that guy.
That one is getting ready to shoot.
If a sloth became a human.
That looks like a fake.
It looks like a fake.
Anyway, they were all arrested because we're going to distribute this math from this boat ramp.
Hi, I'm Lillian, an English major at Hillsdale College.
Here's Hillsdale President Dr. Larry Arne with a Constitution Minute.
America's founders believed in a separation of church and state in that the country was not to
have an official religion or an official sect.
But that did not mean that government was to be hostile to religion, or even indifferent to religion,
as many today argue.
In fact, America's founding document the Declaration of Independence includes both a reference
to God as the author of the laws of nature and a confident assertion that human beings are
endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights.
Far from being hostile or indifferent to religion, America's founders understood the theology
of the Declaration to be an essential part of the education of citizens.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you at the bottom of the second hour.
I don't know if you got to see Tim Walsh talk to Shannon Breen.
Shannon Breen, by the way, is one of the nicest people in broadcasting.
She's a, I mean, she's like an actual Christian.
Like some people will just wear the crosses.
Sometimes you'll see people on cable news.
And I joke around, but I'm serious.
Like the bigger the cross, the bigger the moral deficiency many times.
I'm not kidding.
One day I'm going to write a book and I'll name people.
But not now.
Just trust.
But Sheena Bream actually is a legit.
She's a real one.
She's one of the nicest people.
Obviously, she's a conservative.
but she also is just an anchor.
This is a weird phrase to say for legacy media,
but like a classically trained anchor, right?
She's very good at what she does.
So she had Tim Wals on.
These are not hard questions that she's asking of him.
And it was just, well, audio sound by 23.
It was a disaster that's putting up mildly.
Watch.
The vice president has made it clear that she has policies that make a difference.
border policies are the most strongest, the fairest we've seen.
But now, Governor, you know a lot of people, including your own party, would not join that
statement.
There are millions of people who have come here over the last few years that, you know,
they see this as an open border.
Well, simply, we have a policy.
Donald Trump sees it as a political, look, James Langford in Oklahoma, the Border Patrol
agents, the Wall Street Journal, the Chamber of Commerce, all said past this.
legislation. You have to have Congress
to authorize 1,500 new border agents.
You have to have Congress to authorize DOJ
to speed adjudications on these
asylum claims. Those are things that would
actually work. Donald Trump told us for four
years he would deal with this. He didn't.
He didn't build his wall, 2%.
Mexico didn't pay for it. This is a real
bill that has bipartisan
support. It has the experts
on board, and it starts to tackle
these issues. And we don't have to
resort to demonizing people. We don't have to
resort to making up our crafting stories, as Senator Vance said he did.
Those things were not happening in Springfield, but it doesn't mean that we can't pass a piece
of legislation to strengthen our border.
That's what Kamala Harris is talking about.
She's talking about solving the problem.
That piece of legislation does include the wall that you guys have been so, you've disparaged
that.
I mean, the vice president has as well, so I don't know if she really intends to move forward
with that, but it was negotiated by three or four senators and many Republicans came out
against it long before President Trump indicated he didn't like it either.
Yeah. And then there was this where they get into the abortion issue. And you remember he
told this story. And we've talked about the story, the story of Amber Thurman. And this was out
in Georgia where even her own attorney said it was not the law on abortion. It was, well,
her attorney said it was medical malpractice. Honestly, if you're taking that, what is it,
Mifestrone, the abortion pill.
One of the effects of that is she could get substance.
You could bleed to death.
Like horrible things.
Like every bad side effect is on the, is detailed as a consequence of taking that pill.
She took it.
And then after she was vomiting blood for three days, she waited to go to the hospital.
Then she went to the hospital.
Breen was, she confronted Walsh about this because Walsh kept saying that it was abortion,
the abortion law that killed Thurman.
And it wasn't.
Even her own attorney disagrees with that.
Audio something by 24, listen.
Wade, and about the Amber Thurton,
Irvin case in Georgia, her family has, and it's tragic, she is a young mother who left behind a
young son. But what her family has said is it was a complication from an abortion pill that she
received, and she didn't get proper care when she went to a Georgia hospital, which had
multiple opportunities to intervene there. Her own attorney, the family's attorney,
says it wasn't the Georgia law, it was the hospitals. What he claims is malpractice, not treating
her when she clearly showed up in distress and still had the byproducts of her pregnancy
because of that rare complication from the abortion pill.
So just to be clear on the Georgia law
and how her family and her attorney sees it.
I think they also indicated that had she not go to North Carolina
after the debate the other night,
that she would have been in a better position.
So look.
No, had she just not, she legally acquired the pills.
That's not an issue.
So what he's suggesting still is that there was some sort of illegality
due to the changing of the law.
And there wasn't, that's not true.
She waited for three days after she took the pill
when she was home.
Three days. So that's not true.
These are not going well.
These interviews, the 60 Minutes interview was really bad.
Audio Sunday, too. Kamala Harris was talking about the Middle East.
I, well, listen.
It seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening.
Well, Bill, the work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in,
that region by Israel that were very much prompted by or a result of many things, including
our advocacy for what needs to happen. And it was prompted by, and such as maps. And it's,
you know, not a lot of people have maps. And it was such as, such as that. That was so bad.
Do you want to hear her talk about her economic plan?
Audio sound by three.
Go ahead.
My plan is about saying that when you invest in small businesses,
you invest in the middle class and you strengthen America's economy.
Small businesses are part of the backbone of America's economy.
But pardon me, Madam Vice President.
The question was, how are you going to pay
for it.
Well, one of the
things is I'm going to make sure that the
richest among us who can afford
it pay their fair
share and taxes.
It is not right
that teachers
and nurses and firefighters
are paying a higher tax rate
than billionaires and the
biggest corporations. And I plan on
making that fair.
But we're dealing with the real world here.
But the real world includes... How are you going to
get this through Congress?
You know, when you talk quietly with
lot of folks in Congress, they know exactly what I'm talking about because their constituents know
exactly what I'm talking about.
Their constituents are.
It's almost like it's fake.
I feel like if you were watching this in a movie, it would fit, right?
Who is this guy?
Who is the, because he's so straight-faced.
Juan, can you just isolate where he just sat there looking at her?
Because that man's poker face, I want that man's poker face.
I just want to have that man's, he's just staring at her out there.
out there in our nation don't have maps.
And I believe that our education, like such as South Africa and the Iraq everywhere,
like such us.
And I believe that they should give me the anchor space.
So, because he was so good.
He was so good.
And he just was like very, he just was looking at her like, I am on move.
Look at his face.
He is not, that's a poker face.
Look, he's like amused.
He's not sympathetic.
if you're her and you're staring at his face,
can you read him?
Can you read his face?
Can you tell whether he's got a touch of incredulity on his, his countenance?
He looks like he's going to laugh at her, but he's also being it.
Oh my gosh.
He's like, but that's, first he's like he didn't answer the question.
And this is CBS.
They hate her.
Oh my gosh.
It's so bad.
It's so bad.
But there's more, because isn't seven related to this, too?
Or is this?
I know somebody said, go ahead and play seven.
This is so bad.
I want to take a moment.
Oh, no.
This is that dog.
Skink podcast.
To think of any law that gives the government the power to make a decision.
I know what you're going to ask.
About a man's body.
No.
No.
Is there any law?
No.
Really?
No.
Child support.
So she can't go and do, she'll, she's only done like what?
She did 60 minutes interview and then she went on, it's a sex podcast.
And this chick brought her on to talk to her and she was like, you know, kind of that kind of stuff.
And of course they talked about abortions because heaven forbid you be a woman and you do a podcast and you be on the left.
I mean, that's all you talk about.
Sex, sex, sex, vaginas, abortions, baby kill and blah, blah, blah, blah, being a
No, that's it. That's it. There's no lie. And she, I mean, she couldn't even answer why, I think what,
Audio Sondi 5 is this, because she was asked, well, why did you do this, like, podcast that didn't
even touch on any serious issue? All you talked about was sex and abortion. Why didn't you,
why didn't you, like, talk about anything serious? And this was her, again, if you want to try to
wait through this answer, boy, audio Sondbite 5.
I'm curious.
You don't do too many long-form interviews.
What made you want to do Collar Daddy today?
Well, I think you and your listeners have really got this thing right,
which is one of the best ways to communicate with people is to be real.
What?
You know, and to talk about the things that people really care about.
What I love about what you do is that your voice and your show is really about,
your listeners.
And I think especially now, this is a moment in the country and in life where people really want
to know they're seen and heard and that they're part of a community.
This is so stupid.
They're not out there alone.
This is so embarrassing.
Also, what is with that obstetrician set?
Like, it looks like you're about to go in the corner and throw your legs and stirrups.
Is it just to, like, reinforce that whole like, hey, you're at the gyno.
Is that like the whole schick of it?
It looks like a giant gyno set.
Am I wrong?
I'm not wrong.
with all the Amazon accoutrements.
I mean, I can sit here and be like,
that's all Amazon wish list
from some chick named Becky out in Utah,
and it looks like an obstetrician's office.
That's what it looks like.
That's what the whole set looks like.
It's a giant maxi pad commercial.
That's it with wings.
That's like supposed to be like the it
in podcasting and chicks.
And then it's call her daddy.
Chis.
How about shut up bitch?
How about that is a podcast name?
I'd be great with it.
What?
I'm not wrong.
You know I'm not wrong.
Can we can I
Stop with the blonde wood
Hate it
Hate it
It does though
You don't go into those offices can because you're a dude
I mean when you go into the man's office
It's like going into a mechanic shop in it
I don't know I'm a check I don't go there
I'm going to many spaces
It's quite different than the mechanic
But that did look like just a general doctor's office feel
Like a waiting room sort of doctor's office thing
I don't know what that was about
Yeah it looked like there's going to be like some
spa music playing
and then somebody's got a diffuser in the corner, right?
One of those, like, one of those oil.
Essential oil diffusers.
Yeah, essential oil diffusers.
There's probably like a bowl of crystals out there.
Jeez.
I mean, it makes me, I'm allergic to that.
Those are the interviews that she does.
That's what she does.
I don't know.
And then you have this.
You have Jen Saki saying, well, they're going to start taking more risks,
Wallace Harris.
Which one was this?
I had this highlighted and I just let it go.
She said that they're, they're going to,
to start to, yeah, I have somebody 25, a big shift is coming. They're going to start taking more
risks. Like, what risks? Listen. We've already seen them announce this, which I think is a great
thing. Vice President Harris has a number of interviews she's doing over the next couple of weeks.
Tim Walls, who I think is a huge asset who hasn't been tapped into nearly enough for the last
month, is going to be out there a great deal. And you're right. I mean, the thing is at this point,
when everything matters, you have to take risks. And people may make mistakes. It's worth it.
put them out there and have them doing a bunch of stuff.
But we've already seen them announce their plans to do exactly that.
So what?
I'm curious.
Like, are they going to go and what?
What are they doing, Kane?
The risk is probably they're planning an actual sit-down interview that isn't edited.
That's live.
That would be risky.
But they've been going so well for them.
It would be so risky.
The sit-downs.
Partners over at Caltech.
The lightest, thinnest 9-millimeter on the market with double-stack maggots, the Caltech.
P15. I almost said PFF10. It's the Keltek P15. Two versions, metal and polymer. Metal version has
the gorgeous walnut panels on it. The polymer version has that gator grip texture. It's just nice.
It comes to two magazines, standard 15 round, minimal pinky extension. If you want the ultra-concealability,
it has that too. Flush-fit double-stack mag holds 12. Tritium fiber optic front site,
fully adjustable fiber optic, two dot rear. And it has strike or fire reliability and a great
trigger pull. Lifetime warranty. Compact, just absolutely ideal for
concealed carry self-defense. This is like one of my go-tos. It's the lightest
thinness of anything I have that's 9mm. You don't lose stopping power, but you gain
concealability. It's from the inventors of the microcompact pistol category,
Keltec. Learn more at Keltecweapons.com. That's K-E-L-T-E-C Weapons.com. It's the P-15. Tell
them Dana sent you.
And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So this is a crazy story. You guys remember,
He's legally blind.
The former New York governor, David Patterson, so he was savagely attacked by a group of teenagers.
He and his stepson were out in Manhattan, and they saw these teenagers climbing a fire escape,
and he told them to get down.
And he and his stepson, 20-year-old Anthony Silwa, they came across these teenagers.
They were walking their dog, and they got beat up apparently brutally.
I don't know what happened to the dog.
New York Post said that they got beat up pretty bad.
And it's interesting because Anthony is the biological source.
son of Curtis Selewell. So he's not their walk? I know. That's what makes it super interesting,
isn't it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so he got bruises and cuts. He's expected to recover. He had a concussion.
They actually had to take Patterson to Cornell to the medical center where his condition was listed
as okay, but it was filed as a gang assault. And these are like teenagers. I'm looking at them.
Guys, they look like young. It's so weird. So Atlanta's investors.
of the year was allegedly shot after breaking into the home.
I don't know. This Aubrey Horton 32 was killed in Douglas County by a homeowner in self-defense.
An off-duty Atlanta police investigator was fatally shot. He broke into a home about five in the morning.
He appeared to be experiencing a mental health episode or under the influence of narcotics.
He tried to break into the front door. The individual who resided there defended themselves.
A 10-year-old boy was charged after driving a stolen car near a crowded Minneapolis playground.
and not just near it, but also on it, a 10-year-old boy, and it's not the first time that he's done this.
So this, which is now coming out now with the video, September 20th, Minneapolis police said that it happened near a elementary school in Minneapolis when the playground was crowded.
And there was like CCTV footage. Nobody was injured, thankfully, but this is the third time this 10-year-old has been arrested.
Listen to this. He is a suspect 10 years old in a dozen cases.
auto theft, robbery, assault with a deadly weapon.
That is crazy.
He's 10 years old.
His parents also need to be culpable here.
No, we don't need jumbo beavers, but that's not going to stop scientists from trying to resurrect one.
First, it was the dodo.
Now it's this.
Stick with us.
Ongoing disaster follow-up recovery from Hurricane Helene.
It has been unbelievable, the headlines that have been coming out about this.
and I'm looking at now how they've been
prioritizing the DEI stuff.
This is, which is the,
let me pull this up.
There was audio where
they were saying that something,
it's like that somehow people who are alphabet
are somehow more disproportionately affected
by weather?
Like the hurricane?
And it was something to that effect.
Does that cut 12?
May have been.
And they were saying that they had this FEMA disaster preparedness meeting.
And in it they were saying that, well, we should focus our efforts on the alphabet people because they struggled before the storm.
They were really struggling before that.
And I'm thinking, wait a minute.
They said it was about disaster equity.
What?
That doesn't make any sense to me.
How was this about disaster equity?
As was at 9.30 this morning, it's like.
Is this, if we have this, play this, because this is what they've been talking about with FEMA.
And this is, I think, one of the problems in making sure that we're getting things to people.
Listen.
The shift that we're seeing right now is a shift in emergency management from utilitarian principles
where everything is designed for the greatest good, for the greatest amount of people to disaster equity.
But we have to do more.
Right. And so this topic is intersecting, I think, with a number of other topics where we have to look at policies and understand to what extent they have disadvantaged communities that had less assets, communities that had preexisting vulnerabilities.
So they're saying they have to, we should focus our efforts on LGBTIQIA people. They struggle before the storm was the direct quote. And this is, they also.
added, FEMA relief is no longer about getting the greatest good for the greatest amount of people.
It's about disaster equity. What is disaster equity? What is even that? But this is what they were
talking about in this sound bite. And I am trying to wrap my head around this because the alphabet people,
how are they more disproportionately affected by the hurricane than people who don't add who don't say that they're alphabet people I'm how what do gay people get blown away more on the winds I don't understand like what's happening like anchor down the gaze like what's going on do they get like blown up into the hurricane I don't know is there a questionnaire before they rescue you yeah did that does the boat pull up when you're on top of the pitched roof well you know which was apparently a huge problem of Butler does that when the boat
pulls up, do they go, hey, how do you like to have to sex? Is that what they yell before?
Are you gay? They engage in, yeah. Are you gay? And then, then there's probably some, you know,
what was that? We can't, we can't rescue you until we know if you're gay. Is that? Yeah, if that's
the case, and we just advise everyone to say they're gay. Yeah, just go ahead and be like, just, yeah,
be like gay over here, get me. Just do it. Yeah, just go ahead. Get off them rooftops.
You sort it all out later. They said, yeah,
FEMA is no longer about getting the greatest good for the greatest amount of people. It's about disaster
equity. So some people because, okay, let me just, I know, let me walk down this. Just bear with me,
please. So, and this was a FEMA disaster preparedness meeting. So this is not speculation. These are
literally FEMA people with official FEMA backgrounds and their official FEMA Zoom call talking about this
stuff. And they're saying that it's about disaster equity. So if you and someone else are
across a flooded street and you're on each other's you're on your roof and they're on their roof
and there's one boat then it has to go to the person who's alphabet because it's about disaster
equity that means if you have to die in the name of equity then i guess you've got to die
this is the stupidest thing i've ever seen we are taking you know these these identity factors
and making them into idols at the expense of security and safety they struggled before the storm
Oh my gosh, I can't. I can't. One of the guys whose picture there, I don't even understand what half of his. So his name is Tyler Atkins. He's a FEMA. He works as a training manager in the Office of Resilience, managing our resilient and ready seminar series. It's a twice monthly webinar. See, this sounds horrible. It discusses climate change, equity, and FEMA programs. Oh, they have 23,000 employees and they get like $30 billion a year. Why again?
this is so and they've been trying to community note it on X and they're trying to say it's not FEMA
but yes we have to actually acknowledge it's FEMA admitting that it's FEMA because it is.
So I mean what if you can't what if you're drowning in the waters like actively entering your lungs
when the boat the FEMA boat pulls up and they you can't they don't know what to do like I we
don't know if he's gay you can't say I mean can you sir can you stop drowning for a second just tell us
whether or not you're gay.
I'm not making all this up.
This is how stupid this is.
And then you have this,
Audio Somebody 11,
they're concerned about the shelters misgendering
illegal immigrant trans people.
This is all this stuff FEMA has been involved in.
Listen to this stuff.
This is crazy.
Being a migrant trans woman,
there is an undocumented concern.
There is also a concern of whether they would trust
the places that are offering shelter
that are faith-based because of,
the way they've been responded to in the past. Then if they are accepted, what would happen in
terms of misgendering in terms of bedrooms and bathrooms, et cetera? And then in addition,
public safety, once they're inside, from those who are actually sheltering with them.
You know, the first people have been showing up to all this stuff have been faith-based people.
FEMA showed up a week later, so they don't get to complain. They don't, they don't get to do any
of this. They showed up, they showed up way later. So it was the faith-based people that
should up first. And now you're more worried about, well, are they using the proper pronouns?
Who gives a rat's ass? You've been displaced by a hurricane. You're in need of shelter.
Oh my gosh. Stop. This is where fantasy goes too far, where you're now actually impeding
recovery assistance disaster response because of fantasy role play. And you can get mad that it's
called fantasy role play, but that's exactly what it is. I mean, it's it's fantasy role.
role play. And now it's actually affecting saving lives. This is just insane that we're at this
juncture in society right now. Well, there's, we can't, we don't know if they're, you know,
if they're misgendering people. You know, they've, they've got a volunteer staff, usually with a lot
of these, I mean, these, well, all of them, all of these faith-based entities. It's a volunteer
staff. They are operating these shelters. They're serving their community. And,
they're also dealing with hundreds, sometimes thousands of people who need assistance.
We don't have time for this.
We do not have time for this.
Either you're prioritizing saving lives and disaster recovery,
or you just want to be the turn in the punch bowl and mess everything up because you're insistent on LARPing.
I mean, it just audio sound bite 9, this is when they've been pushing this as their public relations campaign.
They're trying to say that this stuff is,
saying these things and criticizing the agency about these issues, you're criticizing them over
something false. But what we just played for you are literally two videos of FEMA people in
official FEMA meetings talking about it. Audio sound by nine. So much is going viral online as well.
One user suggested yesterday that a militia should go against FEMA, got more than half a million
views. What kind of impact has this had on the recovery effort? It has a tremendous
impact on the comfort level of our own employees to be able to go out there, but it's also
demoralizing to all of the first responders that have been out there in their communities, helping
people, FEMA staff, volunteers, the private sector that are working side by side with local
officials to go out and help people. I need to make sure I can get the resources to where they
needed. And when you have this dangerous rhetoric like you're hearing, it creates fear in our own
employees. We need to make sure we're getting help to the people who need it.
Okay. Well, you're prioritizing, though, all of this other identity politics stuff that has
nothing to do with anything that you're talking about. So I'm just, I'm confused. And these
aren't falsehoods. All the stuff that they've been saying is actually accurate that they're being
criticized over. I mean, we've got more. I mean, this is just the, you know, the tip of the iceberg.
And yeah, and they are claiming that they never gave any kind of money for the care and housing of
those who came in illegally. Well, that's just false because we have receipts for that.
I mean, it's publicly available.
For Crane out, it's on FEMA's website.
How do you think people got this information?
This is so stupid.
I can't even believe we're arguing about this.
