Dana Lashes Absurd Truth podcast. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida, man. So you know in Florida, because the temperatures have dropped, they're dealing with iguanas falling out of trees. And it is one of the craziest weather-related things I can think of. And it's an actual big ordeal.

They put out notices because you can get hurt with a big old iguana falling out of a tree on you. We've got stories. And they're not dead. They just like they're like frozen. They lay on the ground and they're kind of out of it. So now there's a Florida man who's turning frozen iguanas into tacos. He says if you can't beat them, eat them. This is something my husband would do. I've literally never eaten one. But I mean, you know, I guess if I was starving, I've eaten an alligator. I mean, he says it's the chicken of the trees. It says,

iguana has a mild flavor. When seasoned right, it's surprisingly tasty, especially when tucked into a taco with all the fixins. Okay, I... You know what? I'm willing to try it. This is... Okay, this is where it gets gross, so... Because during the cleaning process,

he discovered one iguana was loaded with eggs, over 20 eggs. And he's like, oh, look, I prevented dozens more. I don't want to deal with that. Okay, I don't want to deal with that. I'm a girl. Look, I have field dressed of deer. I've done all that. This is an iguana. This is different from regular prairie critter. You know what I mean? Like prairie critter I can deal with. This is just straight up. I don't know. I feel like I'm in hell divers and I'm like eating the things I just shot. I'm like, I don't know, man. Anyway, so he makes tacos out of him. That's one way to deal with it. Woo! I'm going to hear from every Florida person because in addition to having a shetties, you know that they're going to be doing this. Let's see. A Florida man

took a work for you to a dangerous level, tried to run a dude over. Okay, we've got to resolve our differences differently. This is from Keyes News. The man, he smiles in his mug shop, Monroe County. 50-year-old Jorge Garcia. He was driving a pickup, and he swerved to hit a 38-year-old male. Turns out the male

they've had a workplace dispute. He was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. You can't do that. You can't be running people over with your vehicle. And, of course, it was all caught on security footage from a nearby gas station. and it backed up the victim's allegations. I'm trying to wrap my mind around this headline. It's from the New York Post, and it says,

New York City politicians are demanding action from Mandani. Man, Mandani, blaming ambiguous city snow removal rules for delayed cleanup. What is ambiguous about snow removal? They're having a hell of a time. This is cut 17. apparently they're not actually wrong. We are out in front of a landerchle.

And the snow patrol is clearing up over here. Big mounds of snow. But instead of carting it away, they're spreading it out equally on the entire road. Hopefully it's going to melt quicker. But, look at this.

It's almost like three inches over here. But it seems like it seems like 15 degrees tonight. So this is all going to become a sheet ice. Yeah. Yeah. Liberalism is a mental disorder. His mom's like Mamdani. He wants to make this place a socialist. He wants to spread the snow equally.

Everyone equally gets the same amount of the snow. You gotta say, what do you gotta say over there is this? You're looking fine, fresh, fresh. That's hysterical. That's what a mess. That's, I mean, good night, that's crazy. So there's, but yeah, they're spreading, everybody gets some snow. Look, everybody's happy, socialism, yay. So they're not removing.

it. They're, so they're actually taking it to other parts of the city. They're not actually, they're not actually removing any of it. People are mad. People are saying it's a dirty snow cover dump. Famous people now are blasting Mandani for not doing anything, including like far lefties. They're mad because, I mean, it is. It's a mess. That's like, I mean, I, I, I, there you're not even plowing the street you're creating and it's right if it's like if it's below freezing that's just a sheet of ice across the whole road uh man and it looks bad and it's dangerous everybody knows this i can't um someone said that they lived here for 15 years and this has never happened the plows always worked around the clock to get the city back to work i wonder what happened

Yeah, because they've never had an issue with snow. I've been in New York during like blizzards. I one time got stranded and I had to stay an extranet because I was up there doing the view. And I kept thinking with as much snow coming down, there's no way I'm going to get out the next day either. And I did because I woke up and it like New York had it cleared out. It was cleared out. So that's now they're struggling. they're now they're struggling with it and other politicians have been demanded they've been demanding

for some action they had politicians that were helping people like dig their cars out that's horrible like if you're parked on the side of the road and they come and you're just buried in you can't go anywhere you got to dig out that's is it like that in dc too steve it's real bad out there isn't it is it still bad everybody's waiting some of the uh they're saying that the it's not making it melt faster if it's below freezing. Do they not know that? Like you're not making it melt faster if it's beyond. If it's below freezing, you're just,

you're literally making a giant ice skating rink. What the hell is wrong with people? I know this and I'm not an engineer, Kane. I'm not an engineer. I don't drive bulldozers. I don't drive snow plows. I don't do street work. But even I know that if it's below freezing

and you're spreading around snow and slush, guess what? It's going to freeze. You're going to get ice. It's going to be slick and it's going to be dangerous. How is the city not liable? How are they not liable for any kind of injury or accident by doing something that's stupid? Right?

I'm just saying, I feel like there's probably going to be something to that at some point. I don't know, maybe. Remember the Carhart jacket that he had? Now he's being ripped over it by local media ahead of the storm that left 16 New Yorkers dead. City's still a mess. He's still wearing that Carhart jacket for all of his press appearances. I don't know if anybody saw this or not, but he is. He's still wearing that jacket. He had these jackets specially made like the Tiger King with the EMS jacket. And now local media is calling him out saying, wait a minute, during all of this, all this is happening,

you had time to go and have these jackets made? has the city of New York has all the stuff embroidered on it it's just a bad look I mean people are dying out in the snow you're not even moving the snow it's a bad look there's no other way to look at it

it's a bad look I just he's not what Kane how long is he he's like what maybe two months into his term already it seems like he's one of the most unpopular he seems pretty unpopular

and he's getting rightfully criticized He also just visited a guy who got shot while charging at a cop with a knife. Check this out. This is cut 18. And as you said, I spoke with the Chuckerworthy family and I visited Javez in the hospital. And there is no family should have to endure this kind of pain. Put the knife down. Put the knife down.

What did they think was going to happen? You charge a cop with a knife. What do you think is going to happen? and he's going and of course he's advocating on the part of the violent criminal I feel like this guy's only going to serve one term yeah the pain will be too great for a second time during the holidays it's easy for all the healthy habits to go out the window desserts late nights you name it but now that the new year has begun I have one easy

It's time for Dana's Quick Five. So a human skull donated to a Michigan goodwill. Apparently now police are looking for the woman responsible. They just want to talk to her. Apparently it was dropped off at the thrift store last week. And it's... I thought you couldn't have it. Yeah, you can.

It's illegal. That's why they're like, hmm, hey, you dropped off a human skull wrapped in a shirt. They said that there were no uncharacteristic holes or visible damage and they turned it over to a medical examiner they sent it to an anthropology department could take up to 90 days what do you got to do? Like look and be like, it's the skull all right

so they just want to talk to the person responsible that's pretty baldy to drop off a skull to a goodwill like somebody could use this in their everyday decorations I don't know but they just want to talk to her But they're not saying she killed anybody, but they want to talk to her. Let's see. Personal Protection Pups. Demand is increased. The shocking rise of personal protection dogs.

My whole caution with us, it's a whole piece of worth a guardian by this woman who does not know how to write a lead to save her life. So I'm going to spare you. I mean, good heavens, L hunt. Learn how to, learn how to journalism. But I think that a lot of people are getting these dogs and they don't know how to take care of them. If you're getting a personal protection dog, that's a working dog, that's a high energy dog. You've got to be able to devote a lot of attention to that and a lot of training. Smoking laws.

They're trying to make cigarettes unaffordable, $17 for a pack of cigarettes. People will pay it. That's not going to work. They've tried this six ways to Sunday. So right now, they're looking to add more taxes to this. So in Seattle, they cost like $15 at Washington. They're looking at House Bill 2382. They're going to slap an extra $2 in taxes on cigarettes in Washington.

So you're looking at paying $17 for. That's insane. That's insane. $17. That's just... Back in the day when I used to smoke, I paid less than that for a carton. That's crazy. But people are still buying it.

They're still buying them. We got a lot more on the way. Stick with us back after this. Our partners over at WebRute, This is a great, great thing to have that runs in the background. It's lightning fast. It's lightweight. You don't even know it's there.

What the hell is Kamala Harris announcing? Huh? Did you see this? No. She tweeted. She had a tweet out. I lost the tweet. But she had a tweet out where she was, well, not her.

It was, it's like the, what is it, the Kamala HQ or something like that? Are you talking about that? Stop it. No. No. Madam Vice President, what's going on with Kamala HQ? Well, I'm so glad you asked. I have good news.

No. So Kamala HQ is turning into head. quarters and it's where you can go online to get basically the latest of what's going on and also to meet and revisit with some of our great courageous leaders be they elected leaders community leaders civic leaders faith leaders young leaders um I'm really excited about it so stay engaged and I'll see you out there thank you know what's so funny she can do this without having a website if she really wanted to stay engaged with all our leaders she could do it without having a website Right?

It's weird. Did she say that Kamala HQ is now headquarters? Yeah. What did the HQ stand for before? That's... That's... I don't know. I think headquarters.

Yeah, that's usually what it is. Did you see the past... So they had this video? Wasn't a video. Wasn't it like just a GIF? They had this little thing when she had it on X, and you had to type the password into it, and it was the headquarters!

Kamala H.Q. I don't even understand the purpose of that. What is she doing? What is she? What is she? Why? I know every, I, let me pull up a couple of polls here. Do you guys really care if she's,

because she doesn't fare very well. Did she say what she's running for or that she's just going to be campaigning for just generally? No, I think she just is all she knows how to do is pretend to run for offices that she's just selected for by Democrat Party leadership. She saw the billy that she got when she was running for president and then ended up in $20 million in debt after that. Yeah. But she thinks it's a decent way to make money, I guess. I mean, you know what it is. That's why you got some of these people that run for office. You know, that's why you, because they make fat bank. They make fat bank off it. That's why. I just, I was, I'm pulling up the survey that I was looking at.

And it was showing how she fares with, I don't know where they're getting. some of this data. Because in a matchup with someone like Newsom, I think it's just because maybe she has greater name recognition. I can't imagine that because Gavin Newsom, all he's been doing is increasing name recognition. That's why he does this little goofy podcast every day instead of being the governor of California. He does this podcast every day. And I think it's all about him trying to increase name recognition so that he can compete, you know, their primary-wise. And I don't know. I can't imagine them Democrats actually running her. I think that's a pipe dream. Maybe they're doing a fake out. She's only like a couple of points ahead of some others.

And then depending on where you draw the survey from, whether it's California or wherever, I mean, they're like neck and neck, but he's pulling away from her in terms of favorability. I can't even believe that's the thing I'm saying with a Democrat candidate. But, you know, I don't even know. So I look at this. If they run her again, she is so unlikable. This is what she doesn't,

and I think Democrats who like her don't understand. Back during 21, she was, I mean, Democrats didn't even like her. Democrats did not like this woman. She came in last during the primary. You guys remember this? That's why she was relegated to the far off side of the city.

stage. She just, she came in last. So she's, it's her online, I don't even know what this is, her online organizing project. Maybe she can organize some, uh, uh, favorability for herself because she doesn't have it. Democrats didn't like her. She came in last because they didn't like her. She has a very high unlikeability. I don't know how else to put it. I mean, we, I think the only person who has it lower is maybe perhaps Hillary Clinton, but that's because it's Hillary Clinton. You You know what I mean? This is just weird. I don't understand what they think that they're going to do with this. I mean, you have the Josh Shapiro's. You have the Andy Bashir's, which I feel like Andy Bashir, who's Kentucky, I feel like he doesn't want to run. You, they're, granted, they have a tiny little bench because they have no idea how to recruit. But dear heavens, I just, yes, it would be easy to beat her, but also I would be bored to death.

guys it would be the most boring boring boring boring boring boring boring boring to death but i think you're right i think that they need it's about fundraising but she doesn't fundraise that well either she's never been a big money draw they saw the excitement with her when she was running against trump and i think they see that now that the u s a i d money and everything else is drying up for i'm sorry did you say you i took a sip of coffee did you say that they saw the excitement with her running against trump well how did she get a bit of Democrats were running away. It's probably all George Soros.

Democrats were falling down like they were fleeing a fire trying to get away from her. That was my point. What I put in slack, they do these little tiny small money donation things through Act Blue and everything else. What it's really just billionaires drop in dough and then they're just piecing it out to make it look like they were small money donations, grassroots in the whole nine. They're doing it here as well. But they did it with her when she ran against Trump.

And I think they saw that opportunity. They're seeing it again because the USAID money's drying up. Everything else that they've been tapping from the taxpayer as it relates to funds that go to these elections and things. Yeah. Yeah. It's done.
