Dana Lashes of Surtruth podcast, sponsored by Keltec. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man. Suburban moms everywhere are going to cringe in horror when they hear this headline. A Florida man is accused of whacking an officer with a Stanley Cup after breaking into the church. So you all know the Stanley. Everybody loves their Stanlies. They make Stanley Fannies.

little fanny packs for your stanley's stupidest thing i've ever seen hate that i didn't come up with it i could be rolling in cash money anyway palm bay florida florida man found himself behind bars he broke into a church tried to smash a police officer in the head with the stanley cup timothy bornman i'm supposed to believe this dude's 24 years old cane i'm calling shenanigans i don't know man he was arrested in charge with burglar and criminal mischief battery and law enforcement officer resisting arrest It was at the Mission Church in Palm Bay. He broke into the church, grabbed a sledgehammer, broke the front door to get inside, damaged everything in sight, $10,000 plus worth of damage.

He was yelling and cussing at churchgoers telling him he was going to blank them up. And then as an officer approach, he grabbed a metal Stanley Cup, and he tried to hit the police officer with it. The officer dodged it so he didn't get hit in the head. It hit his shoulder. Borman tried to run away. Officer tased him. He went down. They took him into custody.

And he admitted to everything. but oh my gosh like he's he's in custody on almost $18,000 bond so all the women are going how are you going to do your Stanley cup like that how are you doing your Stanley you can't say Stanley cup you just call it a Stanley

right I don't like drinking out a plastic bottle so I drink out of a thermos was that the only one that thought it was the you know the N. Yeah I first thought it was the hockey I was like how did that church have a Stanley Cup? That was my I had to literally go two graphs into this story to realize

that there wasn't a Stanley Cup in the church. I was like, how's this church get a Stanley Cup? Anyway, it was a Stanley the thermos. You got to be careful that. You can't just say Stanley Cup. It's just a Stanley. Otherwise, all the hockey people are going to go, what? Anyway, this, I can't really pass judgment on him either.

Kane's like, yeah, I'm not really mad about it. Siminal County man is accused of destroying nearly $100,000 worth of automated license plate readers. 35-year-old Eric Fielder. He's accused of causing significant damage lately. I love that lead in. He's got eight separate allegations of criminal mischief, et cetera. They've been using automated license plate readers to solve a lot of local criminal cases.

And this guy apparently was just, he said something like the French would do. He starts damaging all of them. It's like, it's like $90,000 to replace all the automated license plate readers that he damaged. He wouldn't say why he did it. He refused to give a statement. So they said that license plate readers help find the missing. People wanted for criminal behavior, et cetera. They call it a critical investigative tool.

That surely can't be abused for the state at all, right, Kane? The surveillance state, you mean? Yeah. I don't like red light cameras either. I always was like, if I ever get a red light, I'm going to show up in court. I will become a hell on earth to deal with for the whole court. They're going to be like, get her out of here. Take case dismissed.

I mean, it's like how they package the Patriot Act. Yeah. So it's for your safety. It's all these good tools. I'm going to tell you when they started putting all them before we moved to Texas. And they have some around Texas. But I learned everything I could about red light cameras. The law, the Fourth Amendment, everything.

I was like, get me one. Send me a notice. I am waiting for it. I am waiting to walk. I will represent myself. I am waiting. Oh, my gosh. Because everyone's like, if you show up, normally they're like, whatever.

because it's a complete absence of due process. Anyway, I'm going to get on a huge rant about this, so let's move. Because I can't really get mad at him, right? It's vigilanteism, but, right? It's against the surveillance states. Yeah, I mean, am I supposed to feel bad? I'm torn. Steve, how should we feel?

Like, we should feel bad? I don't know. I only feel bad because that particular municipality will have to tax their citizens. or use their citizens' tax dollars to repair it. But yeah, I agree. All other aspects of it I like. Yeah, I agree. Let's see here.

This, uh, coral springs, Florida. This guy was accused of pushing a whole stolen Coca-Cola fridge through a neighborhood. There's video. It's not the best quality, but there's, video. They arrested a guy they caught police, arrested a guy they caught pushing, pushing a massive, huge, like giant red

Coca-Cola brand refrigerator literally down the street after midnight. Residents called police when they saw Francisco Hernandez, 34, stolen from a Walmart, passed a home in their neighborhood, and they confront him, he's got it on a wheelbed barrow, and he goes, what are you doing with this?

And Hernandez goes, just here. He's just putting it here in the street. This is a Coke, yeah. Starting right off the top, this Wall Street Journal article. Do you guys see this? Now, two things to note. The first thing is that they talk to both Democrats and Republicans. The second thing to note is that the Biden defenders are trying to discredit the story because they talked to Republicans.

So they're trying to act like because Republicans were included that it's a smear job. But, again, they talked to Democrats and Republicans. The Wall Street Journal piece says behind closed doors, Biden shows signs of slipping. They spoke to a lot of people, the Wall Street Journal did. And they said that the 81-year-old president has performed poorly at times. Pause right here. Let's go back to that interview, her interview, because they're fighting right now to get those and by they Republicans trying to get those transcripts released, right?

and what was said of Biden and his mental acuity as to why he couldn't stand trial? Kane, do you remember what did they say about Biden? Why couldn't he stand trial? He was an elderly man who had poor memory. He had poor memory. He was not mentally fit to stand trial. Pretty amazing, right? So that, let's just pull that right in with this story.

So you have this Wall Street Journal story. And they are, they interviewed tons of people. They interviewed a bunch of people that served, serve in the Biden administration, work in the Biden administration. And they interviewed a lot of Democrat allies. They interviewed a lot of people for this. And so it's not a, it's not like a partisan article because they interviewed really a lot of people.

It gets into what some of the Republicans have witnessed, but also a lot of Democrats that didn't really want to go on record because they don't want the retribution of having from having done so. So this is, it's a very stunning piece. And it really goes into what the her testimony, what he was saying behind closed doors with that. Remember, they also said that they had edited. If you remember this, they had edited the transcript that Biden, from Biden's testimony. Don't forget that. They had edited it. Now, remember what they said about the editing aspect of. of it. Do you guys remember? They said that they had taken out redundant phrases. Like, and if the, now, when you hear him speak, he will repeat things and it has nothing to do with a stutter.

He repeats things because he loses his train of thought and he just kind of rolls off, right? Why can't we hear the audio, not just the full transcript that was edited? Why can't we hear the audio of it? They want the tapes. Why can't we hear the audio of that? Because don't you think, that's significant. There's one thing if you're editing things because somebody said, oh, and and, and, and this happened. And then you edit it and said, and this happened. That happens a lot of time in newsprint. That's why you'll see not really so much parentheticals, but bracket ellipses. Some of the marks to edit out some of the redundancy. I do that a lot on my newsletter. If I'm looking at a transcript and I'm quoting it, you know, I may take like one conjunction or like

one preposition if they're trying to emphasize a point. There's a difference in doing. that and a difference in showcasing whether or not it is a mental acuity issue, particularly when you've heard him speak. I mean, my gosh, you saw the video that we played yesterday for you. That was toward the end of the show, right? That video that came out where he had given his remarks and he turned and he was kind of shuffling off the stage. And they were shouting questions at him and they asked one particular question of him about Israel. And he stopped real weird, like right in front of the teleprompter. And he turned and looked like a man possessed. That's like a horror film. You know, Kane says that old people aren't innocent. That's like a horror film where it's like the

guy is like an elderly man and he's really a demon right it's totally like that cane i felt you on that one you're vindicated i think in that instant yeah so it's i mean there's a difference right isn't there a difference that's what i feel like we should know that especially after they admitted to editing it now here's the other reason why i feel like we need to have access to this these the the the recording of the testimony because and let me tie this into the hunter thing because of what happened with the Hunter case. So the laptop has been entered into evidence. Do you guys remember the 80-something?

How many, was it 80-some odd? How many, the two spy chiefs, both of whom compromised themselves under oath, you had all of these officials that were in the National Security Council, that were in CIA, that were in FBI, that all signed this giant letter saying that this laptop was Russian misinformation. And they knew it wasn't. In fact, one of them came out later and said, yeah, well, we knew it wasn't. We just did it.

So the fact that they were so willingly ready to lie to us about that makes me completely positive that they would lie to us about this. You see what I'm saying? So yes, you owe it to us. That's the problem of not being transparent and lying to the American public. You don't get to now keep things privileged. We don't trust you. And for damn good reason. So this Wall Street Journal piece, pretty stunning, because it was, even Mike Johnson was talking about this stuff.

they talked to him. Lorraine says it was like 51. It was a herd of them. He had sat down with Mike Johnson talking about policy changes and Johnson said that he had worried. And this is why, if you get the sub-stack newsletter, why it was a fake Time magazine cover. What does he remember? That's why it was the image that I included because we were getting into this today. The, his memory had slipped. According to Johnson, his Biden's memory had slipped. And I'm looking at the Wall Street Journal piece about details of his own policy. So in a conversation with Speaker Johnson, Biden was struggling to remember his own policy. And they were having to like cue him like, oh, well, this happened, Mr. President. And then you had this. This was also an issue. They had to like cue him on things,

on his own policy, guys, his own policy. That's kind of a big deal. So they're freaking out about this right now because the polling was showing that, you know, Americans are, asking what's happening with him? Why is he like this? Why is he not able to remember anything? Why does he seem so antagonistic? Godly, I haven't even touched on the Time Magazine interview, Jiminy Christmas. Guys, we're going to have to jump into this, too. The Time magazine interview that he gave. Holy cow. He challenged the reporter to a fight, apparently, and it got really bad. It got really bad. He said, quote, that he was asked, large majorities of Americans, including the Democratic Party tell pollsters they think you're too old to lead. Can you really do this job as an 85-year-old man?

Biden says this, quote, I can do it better than anybody you know. You're looking at me. I can take you too. So wait, you can't challenge the president to fight you because this Secret Service will get involved, but he can challenge you? Yeah. What if you accept? Can you accept it? Like could the reporter go, okay, I'm your Huckleberry? Can you do that? Or is Secret Service like, no, mm-mm. I'm just wondering. I'm just asking a question we're all thinking about. Our partners over at Keltech, it's a great Florida-based company that a lot of people try to rip off because they're just not as, they're just not as smart and they're not as innovative with their designs and they're just not as good at designing guns like Helltech. I'm just going to say it. George Kellgren immigrated from Sweden,

went to beautiful Florida and launched a boomstick company and very innovative. They create pistols, rifles, shotguns, all kinds of stuff, gear accessories, all the good, you know, all that. They got the new Gen 3 sub 2K. I have the Gen 2. Light, foldable, effective. You don't have to detach your optics. You just fold it in half. and get up and go. It's nice. And it's an awesome 9mm carbine. They've done a couple of other upgrades in addition to not having to detach the optic. You've got lightened action for easy racking, ambidextrous bolt hold open. They also reconfigured some of the trigger. So it's a light and five-pound pool, all for improved accuracy, translating to improved manipulation as well. Quality made right here in the US of A. See everything Keltech has to offer at keltecweapons.com. That's k-E-L-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 yesterday, 18T and Verizon customers had a nationwide outage. It affected a lot of stuff. They said that it was reported at least in 24 states. A lot of customers had service, didn't have service at all. AT&T acknowledged a problem announced that they resolved the issue. I mean, it was all over, and it included 911 systems too. and it was 18T Verizon, U.S. cellular, consumer cellular, all had outages. Kane, I'm not saying then, I think there's something shady going on. But, you know, I'm just saying there could be. The iPhone 16 Pro Max dimensions really have leaked.

They said it's a sci-fi form factor. It's thicker, but its bezels are thinner. So there's, it's not mind-blowing, but they said, apparently supposed to be super fast. What does it have the M whatever chip, the M4, something crazy? It is. Do you find that you hate using your phone to actually talk to people? Because I hate talking to people on my phone.

I hate phone calls. How weird is that? I work and talk radio. I can talk to you guys like this all day. You get me on a phone with somebody. I'm like, oh my gosh, why is it happening to me? I just can't deal with it. Magnet fishing.

A couple pulled up a safe with $100,000 in cash while magnet fishing in New York. you get to keep it and would you tell anybody these people apparently i guess they let the popo know they uh told the police they it was they were in corona park they were magnet fishing they pulled out an old safe they opened it and they said it was two stacks of hundreds it was actually it looks pretty like gnarly the money actually looks pretty grody but still like if it wasn't would you let people know would you Can I be honest? Would you?

I don't think I would either. I would be like, oh, this is the heavens. Give me me back all the stuff the government stole for me in Texas. Police Amiens stole a liquor truck in hopes of selling off the booths to pay a drug debt. I mean, jobs also are great. This is in Indiana. Is that Muncie or Muncie? Muncie, Indiana.

He apparently had stole a delivery truck full of beer. and liquor pulled up outside a cheers bar and he was going to sell the booze, pay off his drug debts. It didn't really go as planned. I don't really think that bars like just unsolicited liquor trucks pulling up either and like, hey, can you and also it's a liquor truck.

You know, it's not like it's going to go and notice. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. A woman still alive at a Lincoln funeral home was, uh, had finally kicked the bucket hours later. What in the world? This is in Nebraska. They said a woman is pronounced dead, but she came back to to life in the funeral home. And then she

fine. And then she did die. She did actually die again later, not long after. Oh my gosh. And the thing is, you know, this is a good point that Jennifer makes is that one of the things that red state governors, like the governors of Texas and Florida have done, is they've sent the problem, if you want to call it a problem of undocumented people. They've shipped them all over the country, like the old, you know, segregationists and the civil rights used to put black people on buses to say, hey, let's send them to your city so that you will be upset. Wait, what? First off, who's wigged she snatched? Because that, come on, you're appropriating. That, well, it looks like Trump's hair. It looks like a hair. But Boris Johnson had a haircut. First off, welcome back to the program. Daniel likes with you. Top of the second hour. Listen coast to coast terrestrily. You can also watch the simulcast, the video component, which you can stream on channel 347 direct TV, watch us on X, Rumble, Facebook, YouTube, all that good stuff. So can, I got to point this out, and I made note of this earlier on social media.

So sanctuary cities and sanctuary states literally advertised their refusal to cooperate with ICE. Their refusal to cooperate with Customs, Border and Customs. And also absent from her criticism here is the acknowledgement that Biden has been doing the exact same thing for longer with less fanfare. Oh, except he was actually a segregationist. Oops. He actually was a segregationist. So she misses that with her rambling here. Everything's got to be about race to her. This has to be the most boring damn show to produce. Honestly, every day, it's the same thing. We're going to talk about today, Joy, racism. What are you going to talk about today, Joy, race? What are you going to talk about today, Joy, racism? What are you going to talk about

today, Joy, race. It's the same thing every day. It gets boring. Like, she can't offer any other analysis because she has to see, that's her grip. She has to see everything through that lens. Where's the acknowledgement that Joe Biden was doing this a hell of a lot longer? I mean, hell, sent Joe Biden out there to take the win on that. He was doing this before Abbott and DeSantis and everybody else. He was loading people on planes and sending them to wherever. Oh, but y'all didn't criticize that because you're all hypocrites. That's why, because he's a Democrat, except he's an old white segregationist. He literally championed it. No, I mean literally. Go back and see what he said in the day. He's been in office longer than I've been alive. Go back and see what he said. He literally championed segregation. He opposed the integration of schools and to that. He's on video saying he didn't want his kids grown up in a racial jungle. That's Joe Biden. So he's literally, you're defending an actual segregationist while you're accusing other people of, where you're you think are segregationist policies, things that Joe Biden actually started. It just blows the mind.

Do they not know the history of their own party? Do they not know what their party did five years ago? Good heavens. So where's the criticism of that? That's how you know these people don't mean anything that they say. If you cannot acknowledge that your own side's been doing this and started it, I can't take you seriously on anything else. I can't. Consistency is key. It doesn't matter whether you're on the right or left. You can still be on the the left and have your leftist positions. And you can be on the right and have your right dispositions, but you've got to be consistent. Otherwise, you're just a damn hypocrite sellout and you shouldn't be taken seriously. And she's one of them. I mean, I'll get Biden credit. He started this. I'll give him credit when he was vice president under Barack Obama and they were separating kids at the border.

I mean, they could have ended the Flores Agreement immediately so that people weren't renting a kid to get across the border, but they didn't do that. So at least they, at least they were trying to separate kids from these strange adults that they were coming across the border with because an in amount and there was an IG report on this that came out like two years into the practice that discovered that there were a lot of kids that were coming across the border with people that they a didn't even know or b weren't even blood relatives that's troubling if you want to pretend to care about child sex trafficking that's pretty bad let's fast forward to today's times i shared with you that new york times article a couple of months ago i've included in the prep email

many times where they just discovered that about you know what 80 000 kids went missing no idea where they went. No idea. I'm not making that up. That's the New York Times that wrote that. You know, that bastion of conservatism. More conservative than Reagan than New York Times, right, Kane? That's what they're known for, their legacy.

They wrote that. And they quoted, was it Pacera? No, it wasn't Pacer. It was Mayorkas. They quoted him as saying that he was upset that they were not properly fast-forwarding these kids. through the process efficiently enough.

They thought it could go faster. And he said that Henry Ford would have been disappointed that it didn't run like a conveyor system assembly line. And of course, now they can't account for all these kids. It's just truly stunning.

So I hear sound bites like that. And it makes me mad because they don't care. These people don't actually care about illegal immigrants either. They don't care. They don't give a rat's ass what's happening down. Mexico. You know what? They're sitting here defending the guy who snorts the stuff

that is the number one product for the people sending people across the border. I mean, he's their number one customer. You got the cartel's number one customer who is the son of the president of the United States. They're going to act like they care. How they fund the stuff that keeps it going. It goes up their nose.
