The big story that I think is incredibly significant that took place, the story came out this morning,
is the change in tone from these European nations.
If you remember what we had discussed yesterday and some of what we were discussing just this past week was the reluctance.
I shouldn't say reluctance.
I actually mean outright refusal of these European nations.
to actually get involved and help with maintaining peace in the Strait of Ormuse.
And it's, I mean, you would think that that would be an easy decision for them to make,
particularly considering how much energy they actually receive, how much LNG,
how much crude, everything that they get, you would think that they would be a little bit more interested in helping out just ever so, just a little bit.
I think the United States maybe 7%, if that, I think it's actually under 7% that we would actually get from the straight-of-horm movies.
They get quite a lot more.
And the fact that they didn't want to help out.
You know, we played that audio.
I think it was from Emmanuel Macron.
It was yesterday, I think, right?
where he would say, no, we're not interested in helping out.
Okay.
We're not interested.
All right.
There you go.
So not just him, but also Pedro Sanchez, Spain's socialist leader.
And then, of course, Germany, which Germany is kind of responsible for a lot of atrocities
as it relates to their immigration with Angela Merkel, et cetera.
And, of course, they've kind of gone along with this by seeking dirty oil and gas elsewhere,
with us empowering the geopolitical foes of NATO, which kind of undercuts NATO.
But all of these NATO nations that were super happy to sit back and treat the United States like a pimp,
to treat the United States like we were all, all of us taxpayers are nothing more than a giant welfare system for them.
And that's exactly how they treated it.
That's how they treated NATO.
They didn't even want to meet the bare minimum of spending for their own defense.
You have to at least, what is it, like 2%, 2.5% GDP towards your own defense spending.
I mean, that's for you. That's not you spinning it on anything else. But they didn't want to do that. Instead, they expanded their entitlement programs. They imported in a bunch of third world savages. And now everything's going to hell. Now you have Britain. Great Britannia doesn't even have, I mean, a barely functional navy. They sent one, what is it? One destroyer to the Mediterranean after Iran droned Cyprus. And this was after Kier Starrmer lied prostrate at the feet of hominy and was begging him to not. Please.
don't, please don't do anything. We don't have the willpower or the, or really the,
the resources or anything else in order to be able to push back. I think they really believe
that the United States is going to say, okay, well, then we'll do it ourselves. But what Trump did
and what he reiterated yesterday was he said that, well, you know, we don't need it as badly as
these guys do. So maybe we should just leave it to them to handle. He not only said that
to the press, but he also put it out on truth social. And then all of a sudden, these Europeans
leaders start looking at each other.
And, whoa, really.
And this is where Japan comes in.
So you have the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy.
I should say Italy, by the way, has been a lot stronger of a supporter in this than other
European nations.
But Italy is more conservative.
It's the most conservative country that's in the European Union.
And the conservative resurgence and explosion within the political structure in Europe began in
Italy.
And it's spreading elsewhere.
But UK, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Japan, they all issued a joint statement,
quote, expressing, this is from Insider, expressing their readiness to contribute appropriate efforts
to ensure safe passage through the Strait of Ormuse, while welcoming countries undertaking
preparations, coordinating strategic petroleum reserve releases, and exploring ways to boost
output. Hmm. Well, on the eve of maybe perhaps having their oil cut away and their access to
such energy removed. They decided, you know what, we should not continue to rely on the United States
to do everything for us. Maybe we should do a little for ourselves. Hmm, that makes sense.
Our partners for this portion of our program, it's the amazing folks at pre-born. This is such an
wonderful organization that does so much to save lives. Do you know they saved 80? Actually, it's over
80,000 babies last year. That's insane. That's amazing. I mean, to think that that's like a whole
It's a stadium. It's a whole generation, basically, almost a whole generation. 80,000 babies, 80,000
souls. Everything changes the moment that a mother in crisis walks into a pre-born network clinic
and meets her baby on an ultrasound. They provide free ultrasounds to women who are expecting
to counter the noise they hear from society that they cannot raise this child, go ahead and abort it.
Well, pre-born is in there telling them they are strong enough, and they can do this. You don't have to
sacrifice your family because society's convinced you that you're not powerful or smart enough to do it,
which you are. And so that baby, when they have, when they, the mother hears the baby's heartbeat,
that baby's chance at life doubles. There's numerous studies on this. $28 is the cost of an
ultrasound. Imagine you spend $28 and you save a life. That's a really sound investment, not just here
on earth, but up in heaven. And so for $28, you can do just that, a life saving ultrasound with preborn.
So this year, let's make this year the biggest baby saving year yet.
Call pound 250, say the word baby.
That's pound 250, say the word baby.
You can also visit preborn.com slash Dana.
And now, all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So I read this.
This is from the New York Post.
I thought it was kind of entertaining.
Gen Z wants Green Day's off, off of work, to reconnect with nature.
for their mental health
or fragile mental health.
It's called a weekend.
That's what weekends are.
They said that they need a respite.
They need to ditch the daily grind
and enjoy little midweek mindfulness.
They would like to be able to walk barefoot
through the grass and frolic in a meadow.
That's the weekend. It's a weekend activity.
But they're wanting more time off.
Why don't you work for 10 years in the workforce
first before,
saying that you want more time off.
U.S. debt reaches $39 trillion
milestone for the first time amid a spending surge.
We have got to get the spending under control.
And Republicans need to get off their keysters and get it done.
I've been saying this for years.
And it's not any better under a Republican administration
than a Democrat one.
Just so you know, it's been pretty bad.
They've got to cut spending
because you know what's going to happen
when we lose midterms and set up for Democrat presidency in 28,
they're going to say, oh my gosh, we've got to make up this revenue taxes.
That's going to happen, just so you know.
More people have been hospitalized by trendy supplements
that have been recalled over contamination with deadly bacteria.
Or maybe just get eight hours of sleep and eat healthy
and you won't need maybe perhaps all of the supplements.
The CDC, if you believe it or not,
they issued a recall of a whole bunch of other,
A whole bunch of super greens, live it up supplements, organic green superfood, whatever.
They've had 97 cases, 26 hospitalizations, and 32 states that were tied to bacteria contamination of their product.
That's so gross.
That's nasty.
Let's see, the FBI and IRS are going to investigate nonprofit groups from domestic terror links.
You know, you need to check out some of these Islamist ones, particularly in New York.
We've got a lot more on the way.
Stick with us.
If you hate like waiting for forever when you're like trying to figure out something with your cell phone service, you don't have to with Patriot Mobile.
I'm pretty sure they have like a million people in Texas that are just sitting there at their U.S.-based customer service team, super excited to talk to somebody, which is probably why my mom calls them and like just asks just random questions about her funds.
She just likes talking to them.
It's hysterical.
But what I love about Patriot Mobile, first off, it's affordable.
I mean, they got plans that they can tailor to what your needs are, whether you're a business or a family.
it doesn't matter how big of a business or how big of a family.
They have plans that they, for everybody, unlimited data, mobile hotspots, international roaming.
If you're in a contract, they also have a program to buy you out.
So you don't have to be stuck with that device or that company.
Your switch also directly funds conservative causes.
They have a proven stream of giving.
I've told you before how they were instrumental in helping the ragtag group of parents in my town
organized against a very well-organized and very well-funded professional opposition
that was trying to take over the school board.
And with PatriotMobil's help, parents won in our school district.
And they do all of this while giving you prioritized premium access
on all three major U.S. networks.

Well, you're right to be concerned about Iran's development of longer range ballistic missiles,
Senator.
If Iran were allowed to develop at the IRBM ranges, which is 3,000 kilometers, it would threaten
most of Europe.
And yes, as you mentioned, we know that Iran is gaining experience in these larger, more
powerful booster technologies through its so-called space launch vehicle program.
If left unimpeded, yes, Senator, they would have the ability to range missiles to the continental U.S.
It's one of the reasons why degrading Iran's missile production capabilities that is taking place right now in Operation Epic Fury is so important to our national security.
So that CIA had John Ratcliffe that he was laying it out about everything.
everything with this is what they feel was the immediacy. This is what they were looking at.
And, you know, previously we had played Rubio Audio and he was talking about the use of those,
of their missile stockpile that was growing at an insane pace. And what's funny is that, actually,
I was just, I'm looking to pull this up. There was a piece that I read and it was supposed to,
they were trying to design it as a hit piece against the administration. And it, it, it,
ended up actually kind of confirming the rate of production with these missiles with the aid of China.
And so that didn't actually go that well for them with that.
But then again, you know, it's they don't want the United States to be successful.
Welcome back again to the program.
As I said, Dana Lash here with you.
And this immediacy, the, I get what they're saying, that you have a certain window to act.
and when you get past that point, the consequences are going to be double or even triple
what they would have been by not acting earlier.
And that gets into what Rubio said that sometimes the cost of inaction is greater than the
cost of action.
And that's what he and POTUS had explained early on.
And as I said, I think that they deserve the benefit of the doubt because he's been
very consistent. He's been very consistent on all of this. My friend Kurt Schlichter has a piece out at
Town Hall, and as you know, he is a retired colonel. And he was talking about one of the, I mentioned
last hour I would get into this. He was talking about the report that POTUS was considering boots on the
ground. POTUS is not considering boots on the ground, but he doesn't want foreign entities to think that.
And I wouldn't either. If I am playing a, if I am in a,
Imagine it as the tensest boardroom battle that you could be in.
Because, again, it's following the War Powers Act.
Congress isn't declared war.
We haven't met other criteria for that consideration.
It's not a war.
We don't want it to get to one.
And so that's why they were saying,
decapitating the leadership structure,
all of the top ranking,
eliminating stockpiles,
and making it to where they can no longer enrich uranium,
that was the goal. And as I've said, I think he's been incredibly consistent. No mission creep
whenever there's action, it is in and out and that's it. And he unleashes our fighting forces to do
what they do best. And that's what it's about. My friend Kurtzlechtar has a piece that, as I said,
that gets into this boots on the ground part. And he was saying, look, even if it were to get to that,
it's not going to be our people. It's going to be Israel that would be doing it. And he says the only
one that we don't, he said, because he's talking about the people who say that we're losing,
which is stupid. These people are lying to you. That's so damn dumb, honestly. Like, stop.
Still, he says still with the Israelis taking out squad-sized units of whatever the farcey word for
Gestapo is using exploding drones and the people beginning to take to the streets,
it's only a matter of time before the mullahs lose control of the dirt.
two. That's it. He says the victory is so complete that it increases the potential to doubt it
because the achievement is so incomprehensible. Sure, they fired some missiles and drones. Yeah,
the enemy gets a say. Of course they tried to close the straits of Hormuz, but that's not going to last.
Tactically, they can't do anything to us that impacts our combat power. Our casualties
in material and men are minimal. And in fact, half he says, of our casualties are from accidents.
and the other half are from a lucky hit.
Strategically, Iran has completely blown it, he writes.
Their goal was to get the surrounding states to force America and Israel to stop by attacking Iran's neighbors.
And instead, that made their neighbors mad.
So now they're helping us, which is true.
He also adds, as Klaus Fitz points out, war is simply politics with different means.
And the end result will be a non-nuclear capable Iran without a ballistic missile capability.
But that's not the real objective.
The collateral benefits, he writes, at Congress.
from the political effect that this war is meant to achieve.
Regime change, he writes, gets a bad name from stupid people who don't know history.
And a significant number of wars throughout history have had the specific purpose of regime change.
Reading the piece my friend Kurtz Lichter has at Town Hall.
He said the Romans would march true into barbarian nations specifically to change the regimes.
That's absolutely true.
Into ones that could be allied and paid tribute.
Of course, they ended up messing it up with unfettered immigration later, but that's a different story.
He says, we don't need Iran as our allies.
or a tributary, we just need an Iran that's not run by pagan apocalyptic psychos who hate Jews and
Americans nearly as much as Candace Owens, Ilan Omar, and Medi Hassan do.
It's great.
In support of a garbage agenda, he writes, to salvage defeat from the jaws of victory,
because the only thing these people hate more than the idea of America winning a war against
third world semi-humans is an America led by Donald Trump winning a war against third-world semi-humans.
And these influencers are trying to talk you into thinking that we've lost.
And that's where all the aforementioned stupid people test.
comes in. If they tell you that we are losing their stupid, it's true. Absolutely true. Well said.
All right, kids, if you have ever fought with a garden hose, and you know exactly what I'm talking about,
like the kinks and the tangles and sometimes it looks bad after a year and the whole thing turns into a
rubber knot the second that you need it, a lot of people replace their hoses like every couple of years.
It's a springtime tradition for some folks. But now there's the world's number one expanding
garden hose. It's called the pocket hose, and it really is that small. And they have their new
pocket hose ballistic. This thing is tough. It's reinforced. I don't know what this is. Liquid crystal
polymer. It's like the same thing that they use in bulletproof vest, which means it can handle your
household, can probably even handle terrorists. This thing actually stretches out so ungodly long.
This thing goes out to 25 feet. And then you turn on the water. It expands to the full-size hose.
But look, look how little it is. And it's very lightweight. You know,
you turn the water off, it shrinks right back down to twee size, pocket size. So you're not
wrestling this giant hose back into the garage. I know there's a million jokes to be made here.
But the point is, is that their new ballistic version is even better because it has five times
stronger than steel fiber. And it has this like little pocket pivot. That's what this thing is.
It's like 360 degrees pocket pivot. So there's no kinking, no tangled mess. And now it's also
upgraded with a UV coating. So it doesn't look like absolute hot garbage after summer.
and it has even thicker washers to help resist leak.
So for a limited time, you can get the pocket hose ballistic.
Ballistic!
With a free 360-degree pocket pivot.
That's what this thing is.
It's the pocket pivot.
And you also get a thumb-drive nozzle.
All you have to do is text Dana to 64-3-0-0-0-0.
64-0-0.
So that's text Dana to 6-4-0-0 and get not one but two free gifts, your ballistic pocket hose.
It's his life mission to make bad decisions.
It's time for Florida man.
So I had to put this one.
Apparently a Florida bill against marrying your first cousin failed.
Oh.
Huh.
It's one of 18 states where you can marry your first cousin.
It's legal.
Are they running out of potential husbands and wives in Florida?
No.
FDR married his.
cousin. Albert Einstein married his cousin too. I never liked FDR. It makes so much sense, man.
Just saying. So, yeah, cousin marriages. You know where else that happens? Somalia. Yeah, it happens
in Somalia, too. A lot. A lot. And in Iran. And in Iraq and in Afghanistan. Yeah.
Yeah, it's definitely, look, I didn't say this. The statistics said this. I'm just saying. So I had
to bring that up as a headline. Let's see. A, um,
Oh, here, let's, oh, let's do.
Oh, patient refuses to leave the hospital after a formal discharge.
Why would you?
By the way, is it just me?
There is a legit hospital smell, right?
Yes.
Okay.
Am I crazy in that if you visit a hospital and when you leave, your clothes still smell like it?
No, that's true.
How long you're there matters?
I had a huge, like, fun debate about this with my friend.
I was like, oh, I mean, I got to change, like, you know, whenever.
I just have to change because germs and the smell.
Anyway.
So I was like, this is Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare.
They're suing this patient because he won't leave.
I am assuming he.
They just say the patient.
They don't identify them.
It was a complaint filed this month.
They said that the patient was admitted to the hospital for medical treatment.
Then they determined that the patient did not need acute hospital services anymore.
They had a formal discharge order.
And then the patient refused to leave.
They continued to occupy a room.
And I don't know how you can do this.
that. And that means aren't you going to have to pay for the time that you're in there?
Your insurance isn't going to cover it. I mean, it's like legendary how much a Tylenol pill is in the
hospital. It's like $25 capsule. If you want some Kleenex, it's like 50 bucks. Just saying,
why would you not go? Only Florida man would be like, no, I think I'm going to stay here. I'm going
to use this like a Ritz or something. That's what's going to happen. As we move, our partners bringing
you the program, the folks over at Relief Factor.

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States.
Yeah, you know, sometimes you look at the polling data and there are numbers that just jump off the screen at you.
And this is one of those because just take a look here.
MAGA GOP view of Trump, approve 100%.
100%.
If you are a member of MAGA and the GOP, you approve of Donald John Trump.
0% say that they disapproved.
You don't have to be a mathematical genius.
You can't go higher than 100%.
He is the 19172 Miami Dolphins.
I think it's actually funny that they're like it's 100%.
I mean, I think that the base supports him,
and there have been numerous polls that have been taken.
There's like, my last count was eight different surveys,
and they all show, despite what podcast to Stan is trying to pull.
Most people are like, yeah, we're going to try.
the administration on this.
But I do think 100% really.
There's not like one dude out there,
one chick out there who's like,
I don't think so.
Find that a little.
I mean, it is CNN.
That guy was so going to sell me a slap chop or something.
Would you think they would lean on that way
or they would just try to find some way
to populate that disapprove portion of the people?
I think they were just trying to make it look ridiculous.
Well, that succeeded.
Yeah.
I think they were just trying to,
I mean, I just think,
I think the other surveys that show an overwhelming majority of support,
I think those are more accurate.
But it's not 100%.
I wouldn't expect it.
I'm weirded out when I see 100% agreement on anything.
Because you guys don't even agree with your spouses 100% of the time, right?
Like the temperature should just be a nice 70.
We don't need to go into like a 67 neighborhood.
I didn't see the cross tabs on that.
Did you?
What?
Did you see the cross tabs on that by any chance?
No.
I didn't either.
I imagine that it's a small sample.
Oh, I'm sure.
We talk to one person.
That's our survey size.
Margin of errors 2.3%.
Doesn't make any sense.
We got a lot more on the way as we move.
Our partners that help bring you the program,
it's our friends over at Chapter.
Chapter is if you're one of those individuals
who's coming up on Medicare,
the last thing that you want to do
is just go to the government site
or talk to some rando insurance agent.
And then, you know, surprise, surprise, not really.
Your plan doesn't cover a single thing that you need.
So this is where Chapter comes in.
Their whole purpose is to cut through the confusion, right?
They see how people end up in the wrong plan, overpaying and undercovered, and they
want to help you navigate it.
So you're not stuck in the same position.
Instead of selling you on like one or two companies, Chapter is the only advisor that
will compare legit every Medicare plan in the nation to find out which one actually fits
your doctors and your prescriptions and your budget.
They're an honest translator for Medicare.
They're going to explain your options in Plano English
and help you avoid the plans that are great for insurance companies,
but horrible for actual real people like you.
People who work with Chapters save over $1,000 a year in health care costs.

instead of taking whatever's pushed at them.
It is free and fast to talk to Chapter in under 20 minutes.

So hit pound 250 on your phone and say the two words, Medicare plan, to get your options reviewed with chapter.
That's pound 250 and say Medicare plan.
And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So a 2,000-year-old artifact may be evidence that Romans found the news.
New World a thousand years before Christopher Columbus. It was an ancient Roman artifact in Mexico.
Now, there's been like stuff like this back and forth that I've heard with different things,
but this is, I'm not even going to try to pronounce it. It is a terracotta sculpture of a bearded
man that was exhumed by Mexican archaeologist Jose Pion in 1933 from a repository in
Mexico City. And it was buried in a sealed tomb beneath three intact floor layers of this,
you know, like a ziggarot, basically, alongside pottery shards, gold ornaments, things like that.
And so they've been doing all this dating on it. Now with the technology, they say it is without any
doubt it's Roman, and not just with the appearance of the face on it, but apparently the dating
of it, they were able to, so now there, that's a, now, how did that get there? Interesting. Was it
trade? Was it, what was it? Also, U.S. adults are skipping parenting or having
fewer kids and it's actually forcing some schools to close. The U.S. birth rate has declined
dramatically. It's another way that we're just seating the ground over to Islamism. Schools are
becoming emptier. Districts are becoming, are getting less public funding. And this is something
like in Tennessee, there's several school districts that are dealing with us. We've got to remedy
that. That's going to be, it's going to be bad in the future. Also, let's see, Webb Telescope.
The James Webb Telescope, they have little red dots. And,
some of the latest things that they've surveyed and astronomers have no idea what they are.
So they just call them R-R-R-Ds for little red dots.
It's the most powerful space telescope ever made.
And there are these weird cosmic anomalies that just look like small little like bright red, like heat points almost.
And they don't understand what it is.
They say it's not the first time that it's happened, but it is strange.
So everything, you know, first times like that in space, it's very, hmm.
straighted skiers rescued after spelling SOS with ice blocks from a frozen lake.
Interesting.
Ooh, archaeologist discovered evidence of a 2,000-year-old machine gun and the damage that it did.
Told you.
It was used during the Roman conquest of Pompeii, originally invented in the classical era, Greece.
The weapon used a chain drive to fire darts rapidly.
Interesting.
