Welcome to the program. Dana Lash with you and we are at the top of this first hour. But this is how they think that they are owed, guys. Tim Walts specifically wants taxpayers to pay for all of the stuff that they helped create in Minnesota because they refused to follow the law. And Jacob Frye, as you were hearing, he was agreeing with all of this. They are demand. And they think they're going to get it too. Now, granted, if it were Biden, you know, they'd probably get it. I mean, they looked at the other way this entire time with all of this. And so keep in mind, the reason that they allowed all of this stuff to foment is because they needed a distraction from the fraud.

They needed a distraction from the fraud entirely. That's how bad it is. Hundreds of billions of dollars of taxpayer fraud. your money too. I had some gosh, I had some half-wit that sent me. I thought about like reading it and some special like mailbag of hate but I realized

I just didn't want to give air to it because the grammar was atrocious, the spelling was atrocious and the person had a reasoning capacity of somebody who was the product of severe incest. So it was just it's impossible. They were like how US taxpayers, we didn't

do, this is just Minnesota. And then people are saying that's just Trump. the troll was saying, well, that's just Trump, you know, trying to make it look worse. You know, by arguing that there was federal tax dollars involved, you absolute walking mental abortion. They received hundreds of federal grants. Do you know what? Where does the money for a federal grant come from? Lunchbox.

Where do you think the money comes from? I have no courtesy with people who are that stupid. I really don't. I think being that dumb is a choice. And you should suffer for it for making a bad choice. That's my personal opinion, and I'm happy to serve my country in that capacity by making that suffering a reality. So where do you think money from federal grants come from? What does that come from?

Federal grant money. I think it comes from the state? I think it's the state that does it? It says federal. I know. It says federal. That's where it gets real tricky. It says federal.

It's where it gets tricky. You think it's the state? Because it's not the state. No. It's a federal tax. It's our tax dollars. It's Kane's tax dollars. It's Steve tax dollars.

Juan's tax dollars. My tax dollars. Lorraine's tax dollars. Your tax dollars. All went for that. So people who are trying to argue, look at how they moved the goal post. At first they said there was no fraud.

And now they're arguing, well, it was just Minnesota tax dollars. As though every, as though Minnesotans are going to go, oh, that's all, okay. No, it's everybody's. It's everybody's tax dollars. And they're still doubling down.

Fry says he's going to support more. He's going to continue supporting. This is, by the way, this is Walsh right here. This is Tim Walsh, and he wants taxpayers to pay his state. Listen to how he tries to frame this. I'm going to try not to throw anything. Go ahead. The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here.

They are going to be accountability on the things that happened. But one of the things is the incredible and immense costs that were born by the people of this state, the federal government needs to be responsible. You don't get to break things and then just leave without doing something about it. So we're going to be asking the federal delegation to be investing and doing the things necessary. Yeah, we don't owe you absolutely anything. No. And he wants the initial ask pulling this up.

The first thing that he's asking for is 10 million. So in Minnesota, they're trying to pull over on voters in Minnesota. he's trying to push this $10 million emergency fund through. And that's one of the things. It's similar to what they did during COVID. You know, because that was all above the books, right? All above table and all of that, right? That was all above board.

No, it was. Totally was. He's calling it an ICE recovery package. I can't roll my eyes hard enough. Remember how I said I was scared of the spider. that descended yesterday. Now, I just want to, if I see it, I'm going to punch it. I'm mad now.

This is so ridiculous. So ridiculous. It is assinine. This is just, there's no 10 minutes. And that's just the start. That is just the start. He said that ICE left us with, quote, deep damage and generational trauma. I mean, now go ask the victims of criminal, illegal aliens, like,

Jamil Shaw Jr. and Jocelyn Nungeret and many, many, many more how they feel. Go ahead and ask them. See if they have generational trauma. They said that they want, it's a start. The start is a $10 million package and you know this is going to turn into a giant slush fund up there. It's not going to be anything else but that. That's, now one of the things, let me pull this up, that happened yesterday. We'll come back to that. is the deregulation of a number of things. As you remember, the Trump administration is rolling back a lot of the stupid, you know, some of these over encroachment of the government. It's all this stuff, all of this, kind of like it was part of the Green New Deal. And so they're deconstructing a lot of regulation as it pertains to fake environmental, fake science environmental stuff. Al Gore laws. his mind. I forgot he was alive, which is my whole point in bringing this up. Because I had to go back and be like, wait a minute, I need to go look at our rule of three. Is he a round still? I would have

thought a masseuse would have released his chakra to the point of death, Kane. You guys remember that story? Al Gore was in trouble with this masseuse because he apparently, and it wasn't just one, he apparently asked multiple masseuses to release his chakra for him. Yeah, we don't. It's all gross. It's all right. I know. We're all grossed out.

I'm sorry to start your Friday like this. Anyway, long story long, he is, he's livid that Trump is rolling back these stupid, non- ineffective regulations. Al Gore says the trouble ministration is once again trying to denouissance and reality, by throwing out well-established research connecting the climate crisis to public health. He goes on to add that the Trump administration can try to ignore the climate crisis, but it's painfully clear that the climate crisis will not ignore us. Last summer, we had floods, once in 1,000-year floods in the span of three days.

In Texas, one of those flooding events killed 135 people. And then he went, by the way, we, you guys remember that some of that was due to no messaging for Evac. Those floods have always happened in Texas, according to Texans who've lived here, not Agor, who's never lived here. He says that, oh, the Trump of ministries and throwback of the endangerment finding is not only a direct assault on science and knowledge and public health. It is an insult to the people across the country who are already coping with the disaster. consequences of climate-driven extreme weather advance. Didn't he say all the polar bears were going to be dead? Yes, he said.

But yet they refused to die. I have an update, by the way, on the polar bear population. We're going to talk about that coming up because I'm just not going to let this go now. So, yeah, he said they were all going to be dead. We were going to be polar bear less right now. And ice-less. And all the glaciers were going to be gone. Yep.

It's time for Dana's Quick Five. 207 dogs were rescued in Dallas from a suspected dog fighting operation.

Oh my gosh. I'm like so happy that they were rescued, but also it is horrific that this exists. So far they haven't made any arrest, but they have about 150 rescue dogs that are now at an ASPCA recovery center. They're getting behavioral therapy, veterinarian care, all of that. Dallas Animal Services and one of the best, by the way, animal rescue organizations in Dallas Operation Kindness, we help support them. They're right there helping with some of these dogs. They're so awesome. If you're going to donate to somebody, Operation Kindness in Dallas is a great organization. Dallas Animal Services also does a good job. But they said that it was a big operation

and there was a lot of animals. And I think that everybody who's involved in this should be put to death by firing squad. And you can do it right there. I mean, good heavens. We can just go right by the Trinity River and make a festival of it. Those people need to be dragged. It should all, hopefully it's a felony.

I mean, in Florida they did it. Democrats are revolting against funding Homeland Security, triggering a likely shutdown. This is what we have to look forward to, everybody. The Senate has so far failed to advance a full-year appropriations bill for the DHS. This was yesterday. Democrats were saying they were going to withhold their votes until the party's demands about stopping immigration enforcement were met.

They voted 5247 to advance the House past Homeland Security measure, falling short of a filibuster-proof majority. And Thune said he flipped his vote in order to bring the legislation up for a vote again, a procedural trick. So we're going to go back and forth and we're going to see and then maybe we'll have a shutdown. I mean, we're getting close. Also, we talked about walls. but aerobic exercise rivals antidepressants.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash was here. It seemed our criticism of the Pambandi stuff from yesterday is making the rounds.

I mean, I do think it's legit. And I feel like it was such a lost opportunity for her during that hearing to have brought that back around to the victims, Kane, don't you think so? Yeah. I mean, it's just, you know, you're there. You're in front of lawmakers and you decide to start screaming at Democrats and Republicans. I just, I don't know. I just, I'm without, without, I don't know.

A few things to touch on, a few things as we get you ready for the weekend because, Oh, man. Actually, you know what? I'm going to get ready. I'm going to get this. Did you see the American girl doll influencer story? Kane? How long have those dolls been around? Oh, gosh. Let me look. Let me look. American. American. I'm sure. Like, how long have they been around? And apparently they're like really expensive. Isn't it like build a bear but for people? Like build a, build a person? something. So the American girl people, the dog, oh gosh, in the 80s, because I remember them being around when I was a kid, that's why, but I was like, is it the same, it's the same thing. They've been around for a long time. They were modeled after, this is all going to make sense here in a moment,

they were modeled after 18 inch dolls that were made in Germany. And so they became very popular. is when they were introduced. And they're very popular. I know I have friends that have girls that have these American girl dolls. I had cabbage patch kids, but I didn't really have an American girl doll, probably because it was poor. And cabbage patch kids were already expensive. But American girl dolls were very, very expensive.

And so the, what is it, the price? They're steeped in history. So they have historical characters that are based on, I guess, like, you know, female characters of the late 1800s, mid to late 1800s. Like they have Kirsten as a Swedish immigrant and Samantha is a well-to-do Edwardian-era orphan. I mean, that's hard. That's super specific. Merry Christmas. Here's your well-to-do Edwardian-era orphan doll.

that's very very specific is it not yeah and it it it's it was designed to educate through storytelling about American history right and the lady who came up with it she went to colonial Williamsburg got the idea etc anyway let's fast forward to current era shall we so i saw this with rolling stone Headline Meet the American Girl Doll Influencers protesting ICE Some may find it surprising

But for those creating the content It makes perfect sense So there's a story in Rolling Stone Where They apparently dress their American girl dolls up In F-Ice t-shirts And they take pictures of them And put them on Instagram

So these are grown people playing with dolls from what I'm understanding. Why? Why in the world is this a thing? And there's a story about it. And it's these middle-aged women who are taking American girl dolls. They're posing them and posting about them.

And they get into this, I don't know. Like, these aren't even funny memes. They're not even funny. The love cannot meme. And they say, we've been radicalized since the 90s. And if you're not, you're not experiencing the historical side of American girl and what they'd teach. And they're talking to these grown women who collect dolls. So I had a great aunt. I actually think she was my great aunt or maybe, I don't know, we had such a

big family. And in her house, she was like a very elderly lady. She collected dolls. Not like regular dolls, but like the China dolls with the weird faces and the eyes that could peer through and burn your soul. And she kept them all in one room. I think it was her dining room. My memories of this are hazy, but I remember it was like a dining room that she didn't use. And she was like married into the family. Nobody in the family had money. She married into the family. So it's like my first time I think really seeing a legit china cabinet. And instead of dishes in her china cabinet, they were all the dolls. And she would have the dolls sitting in the seats. I mean, they couldn't like sit up at the table, but she would place the dolls in the seats. Like she was like making a like a vignette in the room,

right? And they were terrifying and they would all. And I thought that was weird. I get it that they were, they were like China or porcelain or something. And they had like the hair that was in the, it was weird. They weren't to play with. You were not allowed to play with them. It's kind of like that now. I think that's, that's progressed to now you have these middle-aged women collecting American girl dolls. And now they're dressing them up and staging them to make political statements on Instagram. that is weird. That's like you're a single adult going to Disneyland weird, right? Kane, if you met a woman who collected American girl dolls like this, would that be, would you still be like I can fix her?

No. I do say that is my first default thing I say. But no, in that instance, you just have to know when to give up. You got to know when to throw the towel in. You know what, though? It makes sense. I just realized. I think you made this point.

These are the dolls that get possessed. Yeah, they are. These are the dolls that all the movies are made about. Yeah. Right? So maybe that explains why these women are so craye. Today is Friday the 13th, you know, which I love. I love Friday the 13th.

I is not afraid, but I'm just saying these are the dolls that get, they get stabby. Makes some sense, man. It makes some sense. It gets stabby? I've, yeah, I don't know. They do, but I feel like that that's what, maybe that's part of the problem with all these women up there. Because they have these dolls and they're possessed. I don't know.

I'm just like thinking out loud. They're expensive. But who'd like dress it? First off, how do you even find a, don't Google it, but how do you find a doll t-shirt that says blank ice? That's, I don't know. Oh, and then, okay. Yeah, go ahead. No, that would mean they have to craft them take time.

to craft them themselves. Craft talk. Craft talk. So Lorraine says now there are modern era dolls that are meant for the adult collectors and they're putting out novels to go with the grown-out. This is, you know what, it's still a doll. It's still a doll. If I, no, no.

Like they're talking about this 25-year-old woman who collects dolls and she has like the whole thing. Oh my gosh. This is like too much, guys. This is way too much. These women need lives. Sorry, but it's weird. It is just as weird as that family member I had that collected the little porcelain china dolls.

It's just as weird. It's weird. All right. So moving on, we have a few other things to get into because I have that. I also have the, we had this audio. pull this up. This was, we had audio yesterday of Sir Jim Ratcliffe. He owns Manchester United. And at first, I thought that the reaction to what he had said in this interview, which we'll touch on here in a second, it seemed a bit quiet. But now it's because they're writing a criminal probe. I can't believe this. So he gave an interview where he said that the UK was, quote, colonized by immigrants who are cost.

too much money and he doubled down on it during the interview. And then now there's a probe. Now they're investigating him. Do we have this? Yeah, yeah, yeah. We got this. We have this audio. This is, he was just talking about it. He just gave an interview. And he was asked about this. And this is what he said. Listen, here it goes. Here we go. Oh, well, we don't have it yet. By the moment, I don't think the economy is any good. You can't afford, you can't have an economy with 9 million people on benefits and huge levels of immigrants coming in I mean the UK's being colonised it's costing too much money it will cause the colonists it'll call well we've been yeah the UK's being colonised by immigrants really isn't it I mean the

population of the UK is 58 million in 2020 now it's 70 million that's 12 million people you met recently with Nigel Farrow didn't you I did you think that they would be a kind of a good government if they were to win the next election? Like, what's wrong with what he said? I mean, he wasn't being mean. He's just being honest about the state of things. So now they're going to, they're investigating him and they're making him bend the knee. He said he was, quote, sorry that my choice of language has offended some people in the UK and Europe. That's really not an apology. So I do like that. But he goes, it's important to raise the issue of controlled and well-managed immigration that supports

economic growth. And he went on to discuss why he was answering it that way. And it was a Sky News interview. And so the Office for National Statistics, all these other offices, they objected. And now the entire football association is investigating his remarks. They revealed that they're going to examine whether or not his remark about immigrants has brought the game into disrepute. What? I don't know. They said man united officials were mortified by his comments, the impact on the players, etc. Oh, shut up already. And then of course, Kier Starrmer rocks into it.

He says it's offensive and wrong. Kier Starmor's a guy who refused. Actually, he said that it was offensive to say that a woman has a cervix. Because women should be denied the ability to say that because it makes the men who want to pretend to be women upset. That's actually what he was discussing in his interview. you. So, Kier Starrmer said Jim Ratcliffe should apologize. Man United's owner should apologize. Kierstarmor, the guy who hid the trafficking of girls in Rotherham and covered for the politicians and lawmakers who did nothing once Ratcliffe to resign because he said something that was incredibly honest. I mean, I hope he doesn't. I hope that that's the only.

statement that he gives. And Starrma was mad because Ratcliffe also suggested later on in the interview that Starrmer was a horribly incompetent prime minister. So, but he's not wrong. They have been colonized by specifically Islamist immigrants. Why should he apologize for that? Why do they hate immigrants? Why do they hate immigrants? They're denying the fact that all of these people have come into their country? Why is that a bad thing to say that they've come in and they've been colonizing? Oh, it's because you look at it. You know it's true and therefore, and it challenges your narrative. So you are trying to cast it as a pejorative. I was talking with Colin Plume over at Noble Gold Investments and we were discussing how no one really knows what 2026 is going to bring, elections,

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. And I said, I'm not scared of a germ.

You know, I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats. And I know this disease will kill me. Right. If I don't treat it, which means for me going to meetings every day, it's just bad for my life. So for me it was It was survival And then, you know, the opportunity

He's had a very interesting life I mean the bear thing, remember the bear that he killed the park? Yeah And then snorting cocaine off a toilet seat Why did the Ew? Ew, like Okay, so it couldn't have been in a public bathroom

because they don't have toilet seats on public bathrooms So it had to be private But, ew. That's her, ew. Ew. Who does this? Drug, druggies, drugies do. They do it. Oh my gosh. The stuff that, you know, there are some people out there who go, well, he knows then about what not to do when you're trying to be healthy, you know? I mean, just don't live life loud like he did if you're trying to be healthy. But still, I don't think these stories really help a lot. You know, I realize that he just is sitting there and he's just devil make care and he's sharing them. But I mean, you're also the head of like, you know, the health. stuff and you're going out there like yeah I was snorting cocaine off of toilet seeds and all I mean in the context of that clip he was talking about how he's 43 years sober and he you know goes to these meetings all the time and and that's why he wasn't afraid during COVID they shut down those

meetings and he said I'm not afraid of germs you know what I mean I'm not afraid of COVID because of this I because of that that's why I'm not afraid so having it all shut down during COVID, his, you know, meetings, those AA meetings and those, those, you know, cocaine meetings. The cocaine meetings. Right. Those cocaine dependency meetings. He's saying that those things save his life. He does them every day.

You say cocaine the way Benedict Cumberbatch says Penguin. What? You said cocaine. Just now. I said Cucane. Yes, you totally did. I didn't mean to. Pengling.

The word is cocaine. Cucane. Cucane. Oh, my goodness. Let's have a spelling bee coming up next hour. Yeah. We got some, if you're bored, you want some interesting ways to pronounce words. We've got some suggestions for you. Also, what we have coming up on deck. Well, a few things. In fact, we are watching aircraft carriers gather near Iran. I think it's because they're just making a show of force. But also, the Save Act fight in the Senate. And we're also going to get into

the socialist Mamdani who apparently one time had an absolute fit on a flight and his staff had a fit on a flight in fact one of his

what is this the guy? This guy's the advanced man for his campaign who was complaining about airline service oh man we're going to have some fun with that so we're going to get into that also what else do I have up here let me get everything out not only that foreign policy, et cetera, but the DHS funding bill. Ooh, and then, I'm going to open this up.

Then on top of it, we've got, what are they doing? What are the Dutch doing? So they've decided to pass a bill introducing a 36% tax on unrealized capital gains. A 36% tax on unrealized capital gains. That's what they're passing. We're going to discuss that. You know how close we came to that, though? Last administration, I'm not even kidding you.

We have a lot more in store. Stick with us. The folks who make it possible are partners. The company, humans, it's an Austin company. They're based in Austin, Texas, and they're the folks behind Superbeats and the turmeric choose, which is a clinically studied turmeric curcumin complex. Now, what do I mean by clinically studied? So

turmeric has an issue of absorbability with the body, and a lot of people will take large amounts of it, but then they don't really get the full benefits of it because there is that issue with having it absorbed in the human body. So what they did with this complex is they were trying to solve that issue. They created a highly absorbable form by incorporating it with this curcumin. And the complex that they have,

has been shown to offer significantly higher absorption than conventional turmeric extract. So that means your body is getting more from every serving. And they deliver some pretty powerful support in a really easy to eat format. I mean, it's a tiny little two. It's lightly citrus flavored, but there's no added sugar. There's no additive anything in it. You're just getting just the basic ingredients because, you know, I mean, that's all you need. And you're going to notice the difference. It's all about helping your body's healthy inflammatory response with this turmeric curcumin complex. Now, you're going to see two different bags when you go to the store. You're going to see a red bag with white lettering and a white bag with red lettering. And they are the same product. They're

coming out with new bags. The white bags with red lettering will one day not be on the shelves and it's only going to be the red bags with the white lettering. Apparently there's been some confusion. It is the same product in each bag. It is a new packaging. So it's not a new product. it is a new package. And you can go and get humans turmeric chews at Sam's Club. It's the same product in the red bag and the white bag. Pretty soon it's only going to be the red

bag. Go pick up your bag today. Welcome back to the program. Danilash with you. We're at the top of the second hour. It's Friday. It's Friday the 13th. It's a weird Friday. It's like 77 degrees in Texas. And I don't understand that because we went from 44 to 70 something. So I don't know, man. We're all on the

struggle bus. For the people who were asking about the spider that made an appearance about this time yesterday. We have not seen it yet. Despite my best efforts. Oh yeah, I was looking for it last night. Despite my best efforts, we have not yet seen. We haven't seen it. Don't know. If it comes down through the ceiling or if I see it again, I may knock everything over and a complete freak out. Just letting you know right now, I'm on alert. I know we're all looking around like, no, it wasn't a very big one, but it was just enough, right? It was just enough. Okay, so This, I pulled this up because I got a couple of things.

Remember the polar bearer thing? I brought this up last hour because POTUS had, he announced yesterday, he was pushing back on some environmental regulations. And I think these were all part of, you know, the Green New Deal. And even before that, he pushed back on this ruling about greenhouse gases, endangering public health. And all the media is apoplectic. He repealed this EPA climate finding.

Wait, are we pretending that everything that they do is based in science? Hold up. Wait, I just want to ask about that because it's not. I mean, you know. And Trump had a presser yesterday at the White House. He said it was the single largest deregulatory action in American history. And he said it's going to reduce deregulatory costs by $1.3 trillion. I completely support this.

By the way, I think it's great. And by the way, you know, all of these companies, they all have things, protections in place for the environment. Nobody wants to sit here and foul up the environment. But Al Gore lost his ever-loving mind and was on a rampage yesterday. Al Gore, the guy who said that the polar bears were all going to be dead. I mean, they're not. And they keep trying to say these things about polar, like I keep like, oh, well, polar bears are going through genetic changes. and then another scientist says,

are you on crack? That's not even remotely accurate. No. That they were all supposed to be dead. Remember, we were told by Al Gore that, what year was it? 2013? That they were all supposed to be dead.

All the polar bears gone. That was the deadline year. What the hell are they doing still living? They're all supposed to be dead. I loved this little thing from the spectator. The BBC reports a terrible news last week about polar bears. They're thriving. This is very annoying of them as it goes against the interests of environmental activists.

Polar bears being the very emblem, mascot and clickbait of climate change cataclysm. But the bear's stubborn refusal to get the memo and starve to death has been too obvious to ignore. The latest evidence comes from the Barents Sea and the Norwegian-administered archipelago of Svalbard in particular, where bear numbers have been steadily increasing. Surprisingly, they're also getting fatter. according to measurements taken when bears are caught and weighed. This is, despite a decline in sea ice cover in the area, especially in autumn. And they say the bears are fattest after the years when the sea ice retreats the furthest.

Yeah, they are not only are they thriving, but they're fat. They won't starve to death. Damn these bears. They're going to go out there and shoot a bunch of them, aren't they? And then be like, look, look at the dead polar bears. we told you, thou should listen to the climate change hysteria. We told you.

You know, that's like we're a second away from that. Yeah, they're very upset. And nobody's addressed this. We were not supposed to have any more glaciers, no more polar bears. None of that. We weren't supposed to have any of that. And hardest hit were the seals.

Yeah, and the seals. That's right. The seals are hardest hit. Those are what polar bears love. the first thing on the menu for polar bears. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, I don't know. I'm just, speaking of bears, I had to share this because I read this.

Arctic comes from their Greek word, articos, meaning of the bear. And it's named after a northern constellation. And then Antarctic comes from Antarcticos, meaning opposite or anti-bear. So Antarctic, no bears. Arctic bears. What? They literally said bears, no bears. And they named it. And that's funny. Bears, no bears. Oh, very interesting. Look, you learned something today. There's the stars. There's the stars. So, yeah, and polar bears are eating more seals than ever before. I feel like seals would be delicious. I just look at them and I'm like, that looks yummy and adorable. I am torn. I want to pet it and eat it all at the same time. Don't know where my nature lies there. But, yeah. So I, I,

I'm just saying. But all of that, none of that has come to pass. I read an article earlier, too, let me pull this up, that was discussing glacier surges, glacial surging, not like water melting, but, you know, actual, like, growth in ice. Back when I was in elementary school, and granted, it was, you know, the late 80s going into the 90s. But does everybody, Steve, did you ever have weekly readers? They're like these, um, can you remember? the weekly reader?

Yeah. They're like these little articles and stuff and then you could order books at the end of it and then... It's like called highlights or something or...

Oh, that was... Highlights for children was one of the magazines that you could get in the weekly reader. Oh, okay. I loved it though. I couldn't really afford

anything in it. Every now and then I was allowed to get a book and I was, oh my gosh, that was the best thing in the world. And the weekly readers, I remember there was an article ended at one point

where they were talking about global cooling. Now this was like probably 89.90. I don't know if any of you out there in the Gen X audience remember that, but I remember distinctly that there were a series of articles in my weekly reader where they talked about global cooling. And then somehow it turned into global warming going into the odds. What happened to global cooling? That's they, it doesn't seem like, like it's very much based in science.

if we're if we can flip that that much i don't know anyway uh there have been uh growing glaciers glaciers have been moving but also uh the sizes of them are increasing this was a daily mail piece as well i thought they were all supposed to melt and go away so much of this is just that's the thing i mean look we have weather and we have we have sun cycles i i've maybe we should teach about that more in school. But it absolutely was seized upon by people like Al Gore and all these other people as a wealth redistribution scheme. It really was. So this story, more developments about the Canadian school shooter, the father distances himself from his son. This was a sad story. So the dad was estranged from this dude who it seems like all of his problems were really driven by the mom. If you think about it.

the 18-year-old Tumblr Ridge, he says, he told the CBC in a statement that he was estranged from his son and he called his son by his ex's last name, not his own last name. That is incredibly telling. And he says, his mother declined my involvement and I was not given the opportunity to be a part of raising him, etc. He did not use, you know, our family name at any point in his life. and I find that statement to be in bad taste. I don't, I get it the dynamic. First off, there's two things happening here.

The first thing is that the mother was completely driving the boat on this kid. Instead of telling him, no, let's get help for your mental anguish. She decided to try to affirm it, which made it worse. You don't make someone easy in their mental illness. You help to find them remedies to get out of it or ways to get out of it. or ways to get out of it and deal with it. You don't make them easier in it. You don't push them further into the abyss. And that's what she did. Whether she thought she was helping him or not, clearly it wasn't helping. That's the problem with these people who push this stuff with kids.

You're not aiding somebody in what is seriously a mental issue. But the second thing is that it just feels like this guy was kind of a deadbeat. He just disappeared. I don't buy, as someone who came from a broken house, I don't buy. the idea that, oh, well, I just couldn't have anything to do with your life. No, no, no, no, no. You fight that woman if you have to. And you don't use it as an excuse to absolve yourself of your responsibilities. And there are, granted, there are a lot of guys who don't do that. But I feel like this dude did. It feels like this dude checked out and was like, yep, I'm out. I'm not going to have any other part. When he's like, his mother declined my involvement, what, what are you?

you're the father. You're a parent in this. You don't have to get this bish's permission to be a parent. And if she's not going to give it to you, you drag her to court by the hair in her head. What are you talking about? No way. No way. Decline my involvement from the beginning.

You fight for your kid. Because look what happens when you don't. That's the saddest thing in all of this. Did you get the same sense, Kane? I don't feel like I'm being, you know, over. I have an intimate knowledge of the system as it relates to custody with children, and it's not built for guys. Yeah, I agree.

So I think he may have been in a situation where it's like everything looked uphill, and he's like, there's just no way. And plus, when you talk about this is a situation where you can't even win politically on this issue. Oh, you're right. You're right, because it's Canada. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I have a lot of empathy for the guy. I don't see it as him maybe walking away.

I think I saw it as him just giving up, like meeting a wall maybe. Because I would imagine it gets very expensive to litigate this and fight this. And look, I completely look at there. There are some women out there that are evil. Oh, my gosh. I've seen them. Oh, I know. I've seen dear people fight this fight.

And I, I, you feel helpless in watching them fight that because you want, you want to help them so bad. And then you see the stuff that they go up against in court. And it is something. else. It is, and you're right, the system really is. How weird is it? What you just said, and think about this, the system in this regard is really built to, for the woman's advantage. Except if he were to go, I'm trans now. Oh, that's true. Think about this for a second. I know we got to go. But what if he had come in and say, no, no, no, I'm trans now. I feel like that would have, I feel, I,

It's Canada. I feel like this would have flipped this on a test. Somebody's going to test that one day. Dude, they will test that. I would encourage a dude who's fighting a woman in court if she's pulling stunts like this and maybe flip the script a little bit. Just saying, you know, I mean, you got to use that system. Very interesting, but I do agree with you.

It's just a sad story. It's heartbreaking to read some of this stuff. Our folks are friends over, for instance, at Burn a Gunn. So burn a gun. I've told you guys a million times. I have zero issues. And I always carry, and I have no problem whatsoever in using lethal force to defend myself or a loved one. And I will go to sleep at night and sleep like a dream. Doesn't bother me at all. By the ticket, take the ride. But I understand that in some parts of the country, people are disallowed the use or the exercise of their Second Amendment rights to protect themselves at college kids who aren't yet 20.

or maybe you have to go into a private property that has restrictions and municipality, etc. You diversify the types of firearms you have. So why wouldn't you diversify your weapons array, period? This is where Burn a gun comes in. It comes in Clinch. It comes in Clutch when you need to go to places where they have the magical gun-free zone signs where they think they work. And I know that you don't always want to go there, but sometimes you have to because we're big kids, we've got to do a job. I get it. But you want to make sure that you have some kind of a way to defend yourself. So like a regular stun gun, one or two shots. The Burna compact launcher, that's the one you really just need to pay attention to, the CL, 15-round shot capacity per

cartridge, shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from 50 feet away. But it's not a gun. So it doesn't care about gun-free zone signs or any of that stuff. So you have an ability to still protect yourself as well without endangering, you know, yourself by getting, you know, going sideways with the law because of these unconstitutional restrictions. Made right here in the U.S. buy it online, they send it to your door. No background checks, no permits, nothing like that. It's not a gun, remember? Visit burnah.com slash Dana.

Get yours today. B-Y-R-N-A. Burna.com slash Dana. Ready when you are. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. Oh, let's see. Oh, we got a Goldman Sachs top lawyer who signed XOXO on emails with Jeffrey Epstein.

and then joked about his male copulatory organ. Why are they so gross? It is this lady, this top executive over at Goldman Sachs. Kathy Rumler, who signed these emails,

X OXO, XO, wished him happy birthday, and then also talked about naming his male copulatory organ. I feel like she liked him, just saying, feels like, that. Why are they so disgusting? House Speaker condemns the Trump Justice

Department's monitoring of lawmakers Epstein document review. This is like further from this back and forth with Pam Bondi and all of this other stuff. Moving on, because this is part of like bigger stories here. We also have do do do do do do do. Ooh,

this. Oh, no, I had that yesterday. Oh, I had the story yesterday of how apparently the son did the story about how they said that Prince Andrew, the disgraced Prince. Andrew had received money from the queen and Prince Charles, like $12 million, to pay off Virginia Guthrie. Well, now apparently that Charles, who's the king over there now, says he never, someone said that he never gave Prince Andrew any money at all.

So it was just the queen? I don't know, a lot of questions here. We got a lot more in store. Stick with us. Brighten up your timely news consumption with a Dana Show podcast, where every update comes with a little dash of not-so-serious on YouTube, Apple, or wherever. you get your podcasts. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. Why is AOC in Germany? And why is she taking questions like this? Listen. So when you run for president, are you going to impose a wealth tax or a

billionaires tax? I don't think that I don't think that anyone and that we don't have to wait for any one president to impose a wealth tax. I think that it needs to be. be done expeditiously. And interestingly, when I wrote about wealth tax recently, and of course the big argument against this is always capital flight. The US is actually uniquely placed to do it because you guys tax on the basis of citizenship so people can't flee, you know? And even if you change your citizenship, there's basically an exit tax because you have to

pay a tax on unrealized capital gains. I learned this just recently. Unrealized capital gains, which is what the Dutch have been looking to do. a 36% a 36% tax on unrealized gains, which is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. They approved it. It's going to be on crypto, stock, bond gains, all of it. I mean, man alive. But why is she over there?

There's this, it's the Munich Security Conference. I'm trying to understand why AOC is even over there in the first place. Does anybody know? Why in the world is this woman over here in the first? place and why is she taking questions the way that she is. And I thought her answer was kind of goofy. Her, well, you know, you don't have to wait for like anyone president. It just needs to be done expeditiously. No, no, we're not going to be doing this. We're not going to be doing this. So this, I think maybe, because there's been a lot of discussion, is she going to, she's not going to run for president because she could never win.

could she try running for another statewide office in New York? Could she try running for Senate, possibly? I don't think that she would be successful there. You have to remember, she has a big mouth, but her district is actually quite small. She represents just like a slice of Manhattan. And her influence does not translate well to outside of Manhattan, which is why none of the stuff that she sponsors ever, which she never really sponsors anything. Most of her, most of the time her job is just to get attention for herself. She doesn't actually put the work in in Congress. clearly doesn't understand the stuff that's being proposed and and doesn't understand the procedure to pass it. I mean, she just, she's a stunt. That's all she is. She's a former bartender who decided to do a very long time lasting stunt. But I don't think that that translates into actual real world effect because it doesn't. She's not a big fundraiser.

She has to be paired with like Sanders to raise money. That's why they were doing a lot of events together. she's supposed to bring in the youth, but nobody don't its money from that, you know, so I don't know. The youth, I mean, she's in her 40s, but the whole idea of her, she's not going to run for president. There are other people that would mow her down politically. This is not going to happen.

And were she, she would have already been making me. Now, that's not to say that she doesn't want to be considered for VP. I definitely think that she's definitely, she has pick me energy for that. But I don't see her going beyond congressional level. I don't. I don't see her ever being a governor. I don't ever, I don't see her ever trying to launch for Senate

because those positions are pretty much tied up in New York. That's that's it. So yeah, she's at the height of where she can be. She doesn't really play well with a lot of other Democrats either. And they present a very united front publicly, but behind the scenes, it's knives out. So I don't see her really going anywhere from that. I just don't.

Yeah, she's mid-30s. So she's just, I don't. And that, I mean, really, the generations that are the age brackets that really donate a lot, unless you're a Soros kid, I mean, you've got to be like, it's like the younger boomers and up, really. And maybe some Gen X and maybe some millennials, like super politically active millennials, but that's about it. so I don't know I'm just saying but I'm just saying yes I think I think with her constituency maybe she feels obligatory or obligatory to obligatory right didn't that that's a word right that's how you say it

obligatory obligatory I heard that under good authority that that's what good authority did you hear that from well if you want to go and play that. Yeah, I'm curious. Where's, where's this phrasing come from? Joe Biden? Is it Joe Biden? No, not really. Let's, let's hear it. Hot sauce moments. Now, if we don't remember what that moment was back in 2016, she was doing the obligatory round. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah. I thought it was Joe Biden. Obligatory. I'm curious how she pronounces a bodega at this point. point. But wait, doesn't she have some other very creative pronunciations? What other words are you learning to pronounce differently now? Well, for me, I've noticed that when she says, did you,

did you do the green barrette one? Do we have green barrette? Because I know that that's important to honor our green barrettes. An open genocide for starving people. You in this moment have retired green Bratt and the former lieutenant green barrette. Oh, oh, oh, oh, green barrette is it? I've been saying it wrong this whole time. And apparently I've been saying wrong the word architect, architecture. I've been saying it that way. I've been saying it wrong.

So yeah, listen, this is the right way to say it. Really, it was about the architecture. I want you understand. I want you to understand. The architecture, like the texture of the buildings? Yeah. That's not even a word. That's how to say it, right?

Yeah, that's not a word. Don't try to delegititize me. That's a word. That sounds like a... Was not coming out of racist ideas, right? It wasn't because people were just trying to delegititize him. Delegititize. That's like people who say, instead of saying converse, what is it that they...

What is the word? Conversate. Conversate. Good night. I just... I want to hang myself with my seatbelt. My car conversate. It's converse.

That'd be a macabre moment. This is, um, what? That'd be a macabre moment. You know what that. That's wrong. There's a thousand ways you can honor Charlie. Stop telling us that it has to always be a Miss Maccabur like. Wait, can I hear that one more time?

Yeah. That audio. It's macabre. That's wrong. There's a thousand ways that you can honor Charlie. Stop telling us that it has to always be a miss macabre like. It's not macabre. No, it's macabre.

Macabur. It is, it's Macabur. Yeah. I got some questions. It does sound like it. Yeah, it does. We can only play three seconds on TV. Maccabar. Sounds like that Jane song.

It does. Right? Just sounds a very, that's not the way that macab is pronounced. It's not pronounced. It's macabre. What are you saying? Huh? What are you saying?

It's not macabre. I am today years old. Just like it's not, how does she say? Bogota for Bodega. That was Jill Biden. I can't even tell the difference. She's like Black Joe Biden. I can't even tell the difference.

Gal Sharpton is now Black Joe Biden. I don't know what, I can't even settle on a nickname because it's just too easy. Don't you delegitimize me? That literally sounds like a spell. That sounds like a spell. Just saying. Yeah, we could sit here and probably spend some time talking about that drama, but I don't think there's enough liquor in the world to induce us to debase ourselves to the levels required to analyze that hot mess. So, no, there's way more important things to talk about.

But, yeah, de-legitimize. I can't even tell. I can't even tell. All right. So we have. More obligatory news? I don't even know. How do you say that wrong?

I have to really work at it. I had to think about it. I know. I can tell because you pause. How did you? How did you say? We have more obligatory news for you. Coming up.

Coming up. Coming up. More obligatory news. The word is obligatory. Wow. Okay. So I don't, I haven't watched HG TV in a while. I think when it first came out

Like everybody watched it And then everybody now has a The whole thing about HDV Isn't it all just home improvement Every day? Every show is Here's this person And I have never watched this It's rehab addict

Have you ever watched rehab addict And apparently this chick Who hosts it Said a no no word Oh boy She had to issue an apology Because she apparently apparently used a racial slur.

A video leaked of her using a racial slur. Can I ask what slur it was? Is it like the slur? Yeah. Yeah. The N-word. Yeah. But she said fart before it.

What? Yeah. We can't play it, obviously, because we would... Did you censor it? Okay, okay, okay, okay. Okay, go ahead. The 17, go out. Let's try to understand this.

Go ahead. Why? It's my last one. Oh, farting. What is the fuck that? That I just said. Nick, you got to, you got to, can you kill that? No, I don't know.

Sorry, it's live. My life. Okay. How in the world is that happen accidentally? How does that happen accidentally? I mean, I don't know. She doesn't seem like a hateful person. I have no idea who, I don't know how she had.

Her show has been canceled now. Was that, that wasn't a live show. Like, how did it leak? So somebody leaked, did somebody leak it out? Apparently.

Somebody delegitematized her. Somebody delegititized her. It's so mockable. I, I mean, now I've heard some creative cussing before. So like my stepdad, whenever he would get mad at something in the garage.

His, I don't think I can, can I, hey, can I say the word, uh, I don't think I can say that word on here. Think so.

It's unless, okay, so what did Sleeping Beauty do to the spinning wheel? She pricked her finger. Oh, yeah, that's right. So take the past tense ED off that and just have the, you know, file. And that's what he would say. That's the only word that he would say. But he would say it was such force and volume that it felt like a weapon. It didn't feel like an exclamation, right?

It like almost manifest as a cudgel, legitimately tangible. hand. So I just don't know how that is the thing that comes out of your mouth. I mean, it seems like she was also surprised as you about it. How are you surprised at what comes out of your own mouth? That doesn't even make any sense. Just a reaction. Oh, my gosh. So they said that the footage was taken about two years ago and never aired. So why did it come out now?

That was my question, too, because we all know that these shows aren't live, actually live. So there's no reason for this to come out other than to damage someone's reputation. Yeah, somebody didn't like her, I guess, and decided that they wanted to go after her. And delegitimitize. And, oh, for the love. We're not making that word happen. We are not making de-legitimateize happen. It is not something that we're going to do. Not happening. I, uh, man alive. I'm just, I don't know, man. I don't know. I mean. She was just built an architecture. It's all she was doing. It's like

Walking Dead, Abraham and Walking Dead. I stopped watching it after that season, by the way. But he would come up with the most inventive exclamations, and I can't say any of them on air. But none of them got into that territory. How was that the word in your grab bag? When you're playing

mad libs with curse words, how is that the word that you pull out of the grab bag? How is that in the grab bag of words. I just don't understand. She could say that she identified as like Snoop Dog or something

and then she's like severely trans and then maybe you know, I mean if they're going to let men go on women's bathrooms and wrestle women and put you know, basically sexually assault them on the wrestling mat. I mean, surely we can see how far we can take this, right? Right? I don't know.

I mean, how weird is it when you've never heard of someone and you've never heard of a show and then you hear the and you're like, oh, it's already canceled. Okay. It's like milkshake duck, right? It's come to fruition again. We have Warren's story. We got Florida Man on the way.

It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida Man. A Florida man has gone viral for frying up some iguanas outside a Waffle House. It's like that Mexican radio song by Voodoo, Wall of Voodoo. So he's been serving him up with the Walthyau. in the Waffle House parking lot. He's a YouTuber. His name is Ron Eez fishing with a Z.

He marinated the egg won't meat and buttermilk and pickle juice and seasoning before he fried it up and done served it with waffles. Okay. I would not want to eat them. I would want to have it as maybe a pet. Right? It's almost cuddlable. I have a scale, like a scale of one to five. Like if it's cuddly, then I probably don't want to eat it.

That's why I'm like, I don't know where I am with seals. But I feel like this one. I don't like its legs, but, you know. I just don't understand how you can get away with it in a Waffle House parking lot. They allow, because the iguanas, excuse me, the allergies, guys, please forgive me. The iguana problem there is so bad. They just totally look the other way. Really?

That's how bad it is. They allow people to humanely kill iguanas on private property. And I mean, nobody. Yeah. So it's private property. And if Waffle House is allowing it for it to happen, then there's nothing anybody can do. As long as they were providing the waffles, I guess. Yeah. That's how bad the iguana problem is there. It's an invasive species, a species that and the pythons. So that's how they deal with it. I mean, it does taste like chicken. I've been told. I've eaten every, I've eaten raccoon. I have eaten bear. I've eaten an old lion. By the way, people who hunt lions, you only can go after the old ones. And like literally maybe you might only have two tags that you can get for the entire year in an area. So people then just not freak out.

It's not good. It was greasy. I've almost eaten every. I have not eaten groundhog. And I have not eaten iguana. But I've eaten gator. I've eaten squirrel. I've eaten everything.

But I've never had iguana. But I know people like, my husband, I think, is eating iguana. And he's like, oh, yeah, it's like chicken. I don't know, though. Because I look at its face. And I'm like, I don't know if I want to eat you. Like a seal. You know, I want to go back to that because they looky and huggable.

And I'm like, I just don't know. know if I could eat you. I don't know. Maybe a Florida man was accused of driving 100 miles per hour while drunk and then he hopped away from deputies. By hop, I really feel like they're really overselling that word. It was kind of like he lumbered. It wasn't really a hop. And a spring hill man was arrested to try to sell 11 pounds of ketamine hidden in 20 large candles. He went to the pokey. Third hour next. There's never been anything like it. But the king of Saudi Arabia looked at me and says, you know, a year and a half ago, I thought the United States of America was finished. I thought it was dead. And now you have the hottest country.

So POTUS is speaking. He just wrapped up some remarks at Fort Bragg, by the way. And this, of course, is there are a lot of discussion as to the show of force as it pertains to Iran, helping to put a little bit of a force multiplier on those negotiations that are taking place over there. Welcome back to the program. I got to tell you, too. You know, I was reading the story, and I haven't, I haven't dove into it super in depth yet, but it's the story that involved Tulsi Gabbard and Jared Kushner, et cetera, and they were trying to say, oh, there's, you know, some leaks that were coming out about Jared Kushner, and Tulsi Gabbard was accused of, like, you know, keeping it under lock and key for like eight months,

et cetera. I find the timing of that incredibly interesting. when he's over there as a part of the team to negotiate with Iran and kind of get him to push, you know, get him to chill T.F. out a bit. That story drops. I feel like there definitely is like a faction, whether it's deep state or I think there's some on the right that definitely, definitely are in line with Barack Obama and Joe Biden as it relates to Iran and they want to do everything possible to sabotage those negotiations. And I think a lot of the, excuse me, the siops that you're seeing on social media with, you know, the Islamist

accommodators and the woke rike, I think it all dovetails into that. I think all of those people are part of it. Whether they're aware of it or not, I think some of them just so desperately want to have clout that they will debase themselves in a manner of ungodly ways for popularity online without even realizing that they're actually cogs in this Islamist wheel to work to destabilize the U.S. Welcome back to the program. Top of this. third hour, Dana Lash, with you. Okay, so I want to, we've been talking about this Epstein, the Epstein emails, like, there's so much, there's 3.3 million files. You remember the Pizza Gate stuff and they had Redditors, everybody was on this. And I, I really didn't buy into

the Pizza Gate stuff as it was reported. But I get where it comes from now after reading some of these latest emails. So case and point. The, and this was Michael Schellenberger, who, had this tweet out where he was looking at some of the words like yesterday what did we talk about we were talking about beef jerky and white tuna yesterday you can't tell me that these are not these are code words for sure whether it's for drugs or whether it's for people i mean clearly they're i mean i think it's safe to say that they're there it seems like it's code words so is that the way that it was with with pizza as well? Was it that way with with pizza as well? I'm curious. The, and I accidentally turned this off here for a minute. Okay, so I have this. Let me put this in here. I'm going to put this in Slack for you.

The reason I bring this up is the words that were repeated over and over again and some of these emails were pizza and grape soda, right? So in them, the New York, in this New York Times piece, they had like this weird and Schellenberger notes, this weird combination of like pizza, talking about pizza and grape soda. On five occasions, Epstein's urologist, Harry Fish uses F-I-S-C-H, uses the words pizza and grape soda in really weird ways. Now, I also am not saying that this is, it. I'm not, it means anything other than what it is, but I think it's, I think they're code words. I don't know. I, and I think this is where maybe some of the Pizza Gate stuff originated because they said that there were like six mentions, for instance, at least five and more in one month,

six mentions another of pizza and grave soda. Like for instance, this was a text message exchange that was Epstein mailing, emailing his urologist to request stendra, a fast-acting second-generation erectile dysfunction drug that was designed for, quote-unquote, greater spontaneity. And he asks, quote, or he says in this text, after you use them, wash your hands and let's go get pizza and grape soda. And then in separate messages, his urologist tells him, what time do you want to get pizza and grape soda tomorrow? and then in another pizza and grape soda enough said and then another pizza and grape soda tomorrow for lunch and then another one first we get a slide of pizza with grape soda then the pop tart and then Epstein replied

wow and then they had somebody whose name was redacted that's the other thing the redactions are inconsistent like there are there are times that bannon's name is redacted another time that it's not so i say that because everybody thinks it's this guy still this year his urologist and he sent this attached document from Vero Equity, which is the urologist's company. And it appears to make it crystal clear that he's using a coded phrase when he writes, quote, let's go for pizza and grape soda again. No one else can understand. Okay.

That's weird. What does that code for it? I don't believe that these guys were actually going for a slice of pizza and grape soda. do you cane that's very specific yeah we've been seeing this for years though and as you know with all conspiracy theories they end up just becoming true well there's a grain of truth in this i don't i still don't believe in like the pizagate thing because there were too many things that there was a lot of when you chased down some of these into these rabbit holes it just ended up to be nothing but now that's not to say that this i mean there's two separate things here was this stuff happening

like the traffic? Yes. Was that particular aspect of the story perhaps sensationalized and maybe distracted from the real crazy stuff that the actual crazy stuff that was happening? I think so. But with this, like what is this? I'm sorry, it's either drugs or people. That's all, that's what it is. I don't think it's ever been properly investigated. I wonder why. But the list goes on. I mean, when you see, you know, the word pizza ends up in the FBI files. those Epstein files, a bunch of times associated with girls. So they believe pizza equals girl, hot dog equals boy, cheese pizza equals child porn. The CP cheese pizza, child porn.

So if you see any of that in the Epstein documents, that's what that is referring to. And they'd have everything from ice cream is a male prostitute. Dominoes, if they ever mentioned dominoes, that apparently means domination. but yeah there was that's been known i mean well not known but that's been circulating as those code words for years and at least three years that i know i mean if it was just pizza why would they have anything redacted yeah that's a great point you know what i mean like if they're just talking about food then yeah if they're just talking about the italian pie why would we need redaction why yeah why if they're talking about going and having grape soda then why is one of the names

redacted in that when literally it was just hey, do you want to go for some great, why would his name be redacted? That's the million dollar question. Here's the problem with us. During the election in the lead up to this, everybody, I think, was trying to oversell you as to how quickly, how much, and what all perhaps was in these files and the true story. And not enough was done to explain the process of investigation and prosecution. and because of there was a rush to really electioneer off of this story. And when that happens, they really, people would really electioneer off it in very sensational

ways. And then, I mean, here we are a year later, and people aren't seeing a lot of movement on it, you can understand why people are legitimately concerned and angry over what they perceive to be a lack of progress in terms of indictments and prosecutions, et cetera, and clarity. I think there were a lot of people that were using this horrible, horrible. I don't want to say story because it seems to diminish it, like epidemic almost. It diminishes it to use it as an election tool because that's usually how it is. Politicians go out there, they promise all this stuff, they sensationalize it, they beat the drum on this issue.

and then after they're in office, then they seem to like nothing happens, right? And there were a lot of Republicans that were campaigning on this. Oh, yeah, we're going to get the Epstein files out. We're going to release them. And then, you know, they released stuff that was already released.

And then the stuff, the new stuff that they released, there's tons of redactions. And then now they have this 3.3 million files that everybody's going through, and there's not a lot of clarity and there's still a lot of redactions and people aren't seeing prosecutions. And then you hear things like,

well, you know, it's a national security issue. Or you see Pam Bondi like she was in the hearing completely lose it. That makes people legitimately and understandably upset because they feel like there is this. I don't think that the Republican Party understands how they overplay their hand on this issue, especially after you had Biden Harris and Obama Biden. You know, you can't justice delayed in the minds of people as justice denied. And when it's strung out like this without any clarity and when it was used sometimes sensationally,

which made people question the legitimate. of the rest of the story, they did such a disservice to the search for truth in this. And they really, I think that they, there are some Republican people, some Republicans are culpable in this. I think they did a major disservice to a lot of people. And you have to think we came off of these institutions off of COVID, not trusting all of these institutions. Complete no faith whatsoever in legacy press. You're not trusting your institutions. You're even questioning the DOJ. after everything that happened with the FISA court and then under Biden and Harris.

So, yeah, people are, you have a combination, a perfect storm of people not trusting their government institutions. And then also they felt like they were used by the way that the story was presented during the campaign. Now they want results. They want to see people in cuffs. So they Republicans helped set this problem up themselves. And now all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quickfunk. Okay, I went really long last segment, so I kind of robbed you guys. I'm sorry, but I'll make it up for you. Make it up to you later.

I witness video of a mysterious craft hovering over El Paso is threatening to up end the administration's party balloon claims. Ooh, I'm going to come back to that one, and we're going to dive into it. Also, a judge blocked Sec Wars censure of Senator Mark Kelly over the troops video for now. He also, there's back and forth over that. Congress is eyeing the Munich Conference as an opportunity to rebuild confidence amongst NATO allies. NATO allies could also do a lot to help rebuild confidence with the United States. So stop thinking that we're the people that are causing all of this discord. We've heard the ones who've been meeting the bare minimum requirements and exceeding that. Well, everybody else

expanded their welfare spending. And the stolen taxidermied bear that we talked about at the start of the week has finally been found at the store. They brought him back. Yay. Stick with us.

Hey, yo, niggas in the brunt sitting with in the chance, bro. That's great.

Bigger's out been outside in the tent. I mean, there are people dying in the cold. Because he thought it would be nice to just let people lay out in the cold. Drug dealers and all that. Good night. That's just sad. This is just, this is. I mean,

oof, I'm telling you. Yeah, that was the audio, which I think we can't play all of it because it's not totally censored. But they're selling drugs out of tents. Police are just like, oh, hey, what's happening? What are they going to do? They can't do anything. They're basically barred from what are you, you're going to, you expect some, some restorative activist Soros judge to actually do anything. They're not going to do anything.

Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash, with you. I had made mention of this earlier. The brady little mayor up there. And his whole team, they're all limousine liberals. They're all limousin commies. His aide was, Mamdani's aide was blasted as a whiny something that I can't say. Because he was denied airport lounge access and fancy perks. Mateus Vigny.

He had a rage, he rage posted on X, it was all over at the Washington Free Beacon, where he was upset because he had been denied airport lounge access. Like, for instance, he had tweeted, going after Delta, like, why not put, you know, like going after them, people who paid extra for premium select and, you know, talking about being able to get in, and access, I guess what the, the bougie lounge that they have, you know, sidebar. I have never gone to an airport lounge. Ever. In my life, ever.

And I also kind of don't like the idea because aren't most of the fancy, those fancy lounges, like kind of far away maybe from your gate? And you got to go all the way to the, like, why would, I don't, I don't like adding extra work for myself like that. So I don't understand it. I don't understand the allure of the air, that. lounge of some of these airlines lounges. But this guy was apparently, he went ballistic on American Airlines because they would not

allow him in its flagship lounge at Chicago O'Hare. And they apparently would not let it, like the Admirals Club, the flagship lounge. You can get drinks and snacks and apparently Wi-Fi. And he like fumed in tweet after tweet about it. and he was upset over his transatlantic business class seat. And then he said the lounge was the reason for me to choose you over your competitors. I guess he just didn't meet, I don't know, like he didn't pay for that access. I guess he thought it was going to be granted to him.

I don't understand why he's so upset. He said the customer service was bad. Wow, like he's a bad socialist. But isn't that really kind of what socialists are? They want all of the boogey stuff for themselves, but nothing for he. you. Then he got mad because one of his airlines didn't finish its beverage service. And he's like, you only get a chance at one good impression or your first good impression. He is actually a limousine socialist, this guy. He winds over this nonstop, nonstop. And then his boss is now in trouble because

he promised everybody, what was it, free public transportation during the campaign. I was walking that back. And then he had also promised to expand their voucher program. And now he's like, oh, well, we can't now. They got, we got a budget deficit. And now he's reversed course on his promise for rental assistance. Every single one of his promises, he's walked back now. They're negotiated with activists, activists to settle lawsuits that wanted to force the expansion of their rent assistance program. and now there's just a big giant fight because he says, well, we don't really have the means,

we don't have the financial capability of doing that. Wow, like you think, you didn't realize that when you were promising it during the campaign, when you were talking about it over and over, oh my gosh, we're going to be able, you're going to have like rent free, you're going to be able to have all of this stuff for free.

Actually, you're not going to be able to have any of that stuff for free. And you're going to have to pay for it your damn self just like that. other guy's going to have to pay for his staff member's going to have to pay for his bougie airline lounge access. But you think that they knew, I don't think that they knew when they were, I think some of them did, but I think that he's so stupid and so uninvolved and doesn't have any concept of how the everyday person lives, that he, they really thought you could do this.

Actually, that's fair. That's fair, the way you put it. I just think that they knew. And they all know, like, how do you, how are you that dumb at that level, uh, that you don't understand how just basic economics works? Right. Like with the grocery store. Guys, we're going to go out there.

This is, remember when he, on the campaign trail, he was telling everybody, we're going to go out there and we're going to make it to where you can buy in bulk to save money. And the rest of us are going, we do that already. We know what Costco is, my dude, right? Like the Sam's Clubs and the Costco. We know all of this. What do you think those are? And then they had a food pantry that decided to stay open backed by private businesses. and he tried to act like that was a free thing that the city was giving everybody.

This guy's a stooge. He's an absolute stooge. They just, he thinks over it, I mean, over and over again, they keep walking back the stuff that they proposed that they realize doesn't work when you actually try to put it in a practical real life process, a practical application. It just doesn't work. We all knew this. We were watching, we were all sit, let's be honest, we were all waiting to sitting here,

for him to fall on his face about all this stuff. That's the truth of it. So a couple of things. This, where's this ad? I wanted to pull this up. So apparently NBC did this. They did this survey. And remember the whole, how do you say it, Latinx, Latinx, Latinx, Latinx, Latinx sounds like a gang.

So NBC surveyed Latinos and they found out that most of them apparently have never heard of the term Latin X and apparently less like few they said 4% but it's actually less than 4% even understands what the heck it is or even uses it for themselves

and NBC seemed really really surprised at this five years later, this has been five years now. They said that the Latin X, most, they said over half of the population, says they've never heard of it. Increased awareness has not made it more popular. And of the Latino adults that identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual, 67% of that subgroup say that they're familiar with the term, but only 13% percent, percent of that same subgroup would actually use it to describe themselves. And yeah, nobody, nobody is, I mean, you even have Democrat lawmakers, who are like, yeah, we don't use that term.

It's politicos that try to appease, you know, this particular group or this group. I mean, it's really rich white progressives who think that they're the white saviors for all the brown people and anyone who's of color, brown, black, whatever. anybody of color. It's those white progressive saviors that think that they are, they're coming in on their high horse to save you. Look at the words that they make up. It's, it's, someone said it was like a colonialism of words and it is. It's white progressives trying to colonize how Latinos would define themselves. The ultimate irony is that it was put, I've, I've not seen anybody who is Latino actually push that phrase. It's all been rich white progressives. Every video that we've played, it's been

white progressives. Every article that I've ever read that discusses it has been a white progressive in a progressive entity or media entity. Because it's a stupid phrase. No one's going to use it to actually. No one's going to use that. It's dumb. No one's going to use that at all as a way to describe themselves. But remember, they're, like, all the Democrat politicians, they were trying to push it.

You know, the white progressives, they were all trying to push it. I mean, it doesn't even make any sense. I, I mean, think of the language, any Latin-based language. You have male and female nouns. And the language,

I mean, you would have to completely deconstruct the entire language to force it in the shape sorter that you the hole that you needed to go into in order to make it work. It's just all goofy. Now, a couple of things. We were talking about those Epstein emails. Now, someone is saying that, well, because we were talking about the pizza and grape soda.

So here's something that Lorraine shared. So there's the theory that pizza and grape soda refers to a specific victim who also helped with trafficking. And apparently jerky may. have, there's a discussion that jerky may have just meant jerky. And Cannibal was actually a restaurant in New York City. I still, we have, I have a, you know, a lot of experience with jerky. Do you think you need a specialized cooling bag to transport jerky anywhere? Yeah, I don't understand that aspect of it. I, I don't get it. So that's why it's confusing. Maybe we could

ask Steve Bannon. Oh, yeah. You know, because he was really good friends with Epstein and worked with him and advised him and tried to rehabilitate him and did this big interview. I mean, if anybody would know, wouldn't Steve Bannon know? Why isn't anyone asking? You know. Oh, you mean, the guy that Trump called sloppy Steve and shamed with a photo on social media? I'm just kind of curious about all of that.

Maybe we should ask him because he would probably know. What does jerky mean, Steve? What did your friend mean by that when he was, you know, talking about jerky and white tuna and pizza and grape soda? What did all this stuff mean? When was the discussion of the term cannibal? Was at the restaurant in New York or were they actually eating people? People are trying to. Helene's like it's special boogey jerky.

Man, I don't. Okay. Well, I don't. Here's the problem. I know that both the right and the left play in sensationalism. I just want to find out what the truth is. The right and the left engage in sensationalism. The right to the point where it actually undermines their own efforts as they seek to accomplish something, they're also kind of shooting themselves in the foot.

Like when they oversell certain aspects of this story and get in the way of themselves. That's a problem. And that makes it difficult for people to sort of land on a general consensus of what this stuff. Also, it's like you need a Rosetta Stone to like decode this freakery. This is, this is, you need a special freak rock to decode the freakery that is in, in these emails. It's weird. It makes me not like jerky. I love beef jerky.

Nothing will make me not like jerky. I don't know. Like the way that they talk about it in here is so gross. Nothing. Maybe it is, I don't know. But I also know that the guy was a pedophile and he was a pervert and he trafficked people. and he probably covered up for a lot of big fancy people whose names were not allowed to know because apparently some of our moral betters think it's easier for us if we hide these people's

crimes and make them easier in their lawlessness instead of just, you know, rip the Band-Aid off and expose it to the light, which I really, you know, question that approach. I don't know, but the restaurant cannibal was apparently named for a cyclist Eddie Cannibal Merck and someone's like Epstein was on a lean meat or keto diet and jerky was literally all he ate. I don't, how do we even know this about him? Right? How do we even know this? Why does it feel like we're in the weeds on this issue when I just want people in jail?

Well, if he had a specialized diet, what's white tuna all about in pizza? Well, he was allergic to fish or something. I don't even care about his dietary habits. I'm glad he's dead. Yay, I'm glad he's dead. I mean if he's dead. Huh? I mean if he's dead.

Wait, you don't think he's dead? It's a possibility. If he's not dead, then he's going to go and probably kill people. I don't know. See, we don't even know that. How crazy is it? Good heavens. This story, it's frustrating.

It is so frustrating. And it's incredibly frustrating when you have lawmakers who just cannot be transparent. I'm so tired of hearing, well, I saw this name. I don't want to hear about the name that you saw. Just say the damn names. I'm so tired of this stuff. All of these just political horrors in D.C., right and left that make a mockery of, of this by the way they present it and use it for their own electioneering purposes. I am so tired.

If any of these idiots, if you're not going on the floor and saying names of people who engaged in lawlessness, you're part of the problem. You're culpable, just like Steve Bannon.

Still the best tank, right? Still, who's named in honor of Stacey Abrams. Only a few very political people would understand it. Congratulations. Thank you very much for a great name, Stacey. Oh my gosh. The little sly look.

He was like, it's a, that's not what I expected him to say. I didn't expect for him to go, oh, it's named after Stacey Abrams. Oh, I can't wait for her to like run to the press. I'm so victimized. She's just looking for some way, some way, some way. Some, some opening. Well, she, you know, she was supposed to be the governor of Georgia. She was supposed to be the governor of America, United States of Georgia.

Stacey Abrams tank. Just saying it's, you know, I mean, I don't know, man. telling you what. This save act, there's still some holdouts. And a lot of people are grumbling with Mitch McConnell. I think, look, real quick, you can, you can absolutely grumble about Mitch McConnell. But I will also, and he's wrong on this. He's so completely wrong on this. Just back the damn thing. You also wouldn't have J.D. Vance's vice president if he hadn't spent over $32 million to bail him out because he was running, he was running behind in that Ohio race back in 2022. That's a fact.

So it's like, you know what I mean? Oh, man, it's frustrating. So make sure that there's still apparently five senator holdouts. All right, today's stupidity came. All right, Juan, this is cut seven. If you ever wondered if Democrats held illegal immigrants over the priorities of Americans, then this would answer it for you right here. We need people working in the front lines and local law enforcement to protect our citizens from the worst to the worst.

The worst of the worst are not the immigrants. What? The worst or the worst record show are Native-born Americans. Oh, okay. So Tennessee's rep, Steve Cullen, thinks that Americans are the worst. He's got a skullet. He does. I don't take anybody seriously like that.
