It was Biden's thing, and they said, what are you going to do about affordability? It was a word I never heard politically speaking. It was the word they made up. They passed it on to the fake. Wow, that's a lot of fake news. Look at that. That's a lot. Potus talking about the issue of affordability, which is going to be a really hot topic.

I mean, it is a hot topic as we go into elections. And Republicans really need to get a handle on this. Oh my God, it's cold in the studio today. They need to really get a handle on this because if they don't, this is going to be the thing that everybody will be talking about as they go to the ballot box. That's what they're going to be. That's going to be the top issue. So welcome to the radio program, Dana Lash, with you.

And, you know, we also have this. This is cut three. I want to touch on this real quick. This is another part of that affordability. Listen. And to be on, it's going to end soon, but because they can't go on. They can't go on. The nation is destroyed.

But I have to say, you have a little higher. You have a higher gain. It's a very inexpensive price to pay for what we've done. Remember that it's a little more. It's even if it was, frankly, even it was a lot more. Press the wrong button. So this, the issue of higher gas prices, there's a different way to message this, POTUS. that doesn't rob you of wins.

And I, you know, he had a prompter there when he was given that speech when he was rallying people. He had a prompter. And I'm like, please, your heavens, use it. Like you have, I, the reason I get nervous when he starts going off the cuff like this is because he's being funny. But there's one thing that I don't even think Trump can overcome. And that is making jokes about how expensive things are expensive right now. I'm not going to lie about it. They're expensive.

And part of that is you have. the issue of tariffs. Part of that is you have, well, we're going to talk about the interest rate, because now they're jacking up interest rates again. What's that going to do to everything? Everything from, nobody's going to be refinancing. There's not going to be anybody buying cars. There's not, I mean, it's going to make everything more expensive. You have that issue as well. But, yes, the energy issue is significant because you have the world supply and everyone, the market will react to the world supply. So when you have the issue and conflict, with Russia and with the straight.

That's a, I mean, yes, that's going to have that effect. But the way that he was talking about it, yes, when he said, yeah, it's an expensive price to pay for what we've done. What I disagree with is I feel like that gives fuel to his enemies, because it's not anything that he did. And it's not anything, honestly, that the United States did. I mean, I want to know the people that wanted us to be simps to the mull is how long they expected us to bend over. and grab our ankles for them. Oh, no, maybe if we just kiss their butt a little bit, they'll be nice to us and won't check up our prices.

Do you realize this is what he should be saying? As it pertains to Iran, it's a little uncomfortable now for a lifetime of comfort later. That's the kind of messaging he should be walking out with. Because when he goes out and says stuff like this, I can't even tell you how much I've seen it all over the Internet already. Look at this. Trump is, you have Marjorie Taylor Green, Clyde from any which way but loose out there.

Look at the high gas prices at the pump. She did this video. Look at the high gas prices at the pump. But she's not going to sit here and talk about look, lady. What was your perimenopausal ass doing when you were sitting there in Congress? No, I'm not even going to be nice about these people. It's better than me punching

them in the face. Pick your poison. I have zero tolerance for this stupidity. But the issue at play is he's got a message this better. I don't think any of you disagree with me on that. He's undercutting himself. Because again, the Iranian issue, that's Iran.

That's not. POTUS didn't do that. My gosh, it predates the man. It predates his time in office. How I wasn't even alive when they started this stuff. That's how long it's been going out. My entire life, half of you out there, your entire lives have been nothing but, oh, it's Iran. What are they going to do?

What are they doing now? million, the million dollar problem. So the issue of, of whose fault it is, he's got to be consistent with that language. Because now they're going to be cutting ads, they're going to take that. I've already seen them. They're cutting it and they're putting it on social media. And now guess what? Now guess what the stories are?

Oh, well, Trump is admitting that I've seen enough stories on that today. Just this morning. It's one of the reasons I'm all mad because I'm like sitting, sitting on my desk and I'm looking at these headlines. I'm getting mad. And I also have like, you know, roof issue. We're getting our roof replaced. Grateful, grateful, but still, stressful. So again, welcome to the radio program. Dana Lash with you. A number of things that we're going to roll over today because it's Thursday. Thank the heavens. It's Thursday. And we're going to dive into some of the latest as it, we got to dive on this whole thing with the DOJ or sorry, with the, uh, uh, uh, Sec war, not really so much DOJ, but sec war. And the issue of whistleblowing. I take great issue, objection, umbrage, however you want to put it,

with the claim that leaking to the press is whistleblowing. Leaking to the press is not whistleblowing. There's a whole process if that's what they're wanting to do. an entire process. If you're going to blow the whistle, so to speak, on what you think, if you are in the government, if you are within the government and you're trying to blow the whistle, there's a whole process to do it. You go to Congress, you know, you don't sit here and leak to the press, right? You don't leak to the press. That's not what you do. But that's what's been happening. In fact, this latest headline about this, Pentagon whistleblowers send urgent

SOS about Pete Hegseth, an extraordinary public appeal. They say he's dumb, deluded, and utterly incompetent as chaotic blunders get so bad, army leaders turn on worst defense secretary in history. Wow, it sounds super bad, right? Hmm. I mean, super bad. Why didn't we get any of these, uh, why didn't we get any of these headlines when Lloyd Austin, when MIA?

Hmm? Do you guys remember that whole story? Lloyd Austin? He went for like what, it was almost a week. I think it was a week. And he, I think what? He said he had a procedure. He was at Walter Reed, National Military Medical Center.

It was in December 22nd of 2023. He had an elective procedure. He did not notify the president. He did not notify anybody in the White. White House. He did not notify the deputy secretary. He did not know his dep he did not notify his deputy at the at uh, uh, within his office. It was secretary of defense then. Later, he said, oh, I took full, I take full responsibility. I didn't really mean to keep my medical status a secret. No, it's not that you kept your medical status as secret. The problem is that he went entirely

MIA. For days, almost a week. You are literally the secretary at the time was called defense. I shouldn't have to say this. We all know. He was Secretary of Defense, and he went MIA. We didn't get a, and I looked. Maybe I didn't look good enough.

You guys are welcome to try. I mean, I really doubt that I didn't look good enough. I didn't see a single anything about this when he went missing and didn't notify. What would have happened? What would have happened? had we, I don't know, like, what if there had been a conflict and we needed to get him immediately? What if the president needed some insight? There was such a long delay.

People, he didn't even report his health concern, which he's required to do. And even members of the press were asking, where is he? What's happening? What's going on? Where's any be? Was it two weeks? Because they were trying to diminish it. Kane says, Keynes telling us all that it was like two weeks. I thought it was just like five days. Was it over five days? It was definitely more than five days. You're kidding me.

It was more than five days. So what happens? Say the United States gets, say we have another 9-11 and you got the Secretary of Defense, nobody knows where he is. What happens? I mean, the notification process, the chain of command, the military authority, and the time that it happened, you have to realize that our military forces were already on a high alert in the Middle East. That was already something that was happening. They were already on high alert. Huh. And this already an issue.

This was right around, I believe this was around the time of Afghanistan and the withdrawal and all of this other stuff. So it was in that same sphere of time, not the exact same time, but within the sphere of time. So what happens? We had at the time two aircraft carriers in the Mediterranean. What else did we have? We had Iranian back groups. I'm going through my notes, and you'll have to forgive me because I'm clicking on some of the tags here. We had two carriers in the Mediterranean.

We also had Iranian back groups that were repeatedly attacking our. troops in Iraq, Syria, and the Red Sea, right? Because you still had the Israeli Hamas war. If Biden was going to deploy or anything with military forces anywhere in the world, they would have had to have gone through the Secretary of Defense at the time. They would have had what they call a principal's meeting. He gets his deputy together. gets his war staff together and Austin represents the DOD. And they would not have been able to do that because they would not have been able to get a hold of them. Apparently nobody could even get a hold of Lloyd Austin. You're telling me all of that happened and there wasn't a single leak about this

to the press. And there were no headlines after and the folks who make the program possible. It's our friends at Relief Factor.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. This story is just unbelievable. Five women are believed to be dead.

Two others missing in connection to what they're calling this Philly House of Horrors. See, this is in your old neck of the woods. Five women connected to this Philly House of Horrors. Real story. This is not like a haunted house thing. Investigators have been searching for human remains. The guy's a suspected serial killer. And if you saw the photo of him, you would be like,

That dude's a suspected serial killer. He looks like Bob from Twin Peaks, yo. He looks like Bob from Twin Peaks. No cap, as the kids say. I'm going to ruin that phrase on purpose. I'm going to rob you of joy. They combed through, here's the crazy thing. This serial killer, he kicked the bucket last year at age 82.

This man lived his life until 82 years old and didn't get dragged for being a serial killer. That's a sadness. They combed through all of his property. They found over a million digital images and video from the house. I don't even know how you amass that much. I don't even have that much. And I'm not a serial killer. Five women in the video, they were lifeless or unconscious.

They identified the women. Two others remain missing. Apparently, 10 reportedly overdosed after they were seen in the video, and they were found in various locations across Philadelphia. 16 other alleged victims were found alive, but were not very cooperative, according to police, and did not want to discuss what occurred. in the home, they refuse to speak with investigators. Now they're expanding it even wider and they're looking to speak with 25 other alleged

victims. I mean, the guy looks like an absolute serial killer. This is just, that's horrifying. This story is just crazy. Let's see. We also have, we didn't need this study. Reading is linked to lower stress and better brain health. I do believe that.

It's a mental activity. That's not surprising. We also have a retinal scan could flag in a regular heartbeat risk years before a diagnosis. That is actually incredibly interesting, especially you ladies out there because heart disease is like the number one killer of women. It is. A retinal scan could actually flag in a regular heartbeat risk. So maybe ask your eye doctor about that the next time you have to go to the optometrist for a checkup. And they studied 40,000 women or 40,000 people for a decade.

They looked at 90,000 scans of a group of 40,000 people for 10 years. So it's a pretty thorough survey. We got a lot more on the way as we move. We have days of these United States on the way. Our partners that help bring you the program. It's our friends at Alliance Defending Freedom.

Apparently, so last night it came out, the United States. denied the quote-unquote Palestinian Authority President Mahmah Abbas an entry visa because they got the UN General Assembly in New York next week. All the tyrants are coming into town for it. And apparently he got denied an entry visa. Oh, I'm so sad. Oh, he got McElmored. He got McElmored.

That's what happened. He didn't get an entry visa. I don't know. It is a weird thing over there because the, the reason that they cannot have elections, because you have the authority, right? The Palestinian, we talked about the history of that word. And you have basically like two of the biggest entities in it, Fata, and then you have Hamas, and they can't have elections because Hamas will win everything.

I'm not just saying that. They literally have said it themselves. They are Hamas is incredibly popular in Judean Samaria and as well as in Gaza Strip. They're very, very popular still. And as such, when they won by a landslide after the Israeli universal withdrawal out of Gaza, and they just left everything there and then Hamas did its thing, terrorist thing, the popularity only grew, even after October 7th, it only grew. So he was denied.

There's a couple of different ways looking at. When talking to people, that's the thing that I, is difficult to figure out. Because an Abbas is with Fata, and so he heads up the authority. The difference between Hamas and Fata is that Fata is like, yeah, we're still jack wagons, but we're not going to be major terrorists at least anymore. And we at least acknowledge Israel's right to exist. Whereas Hamas, it's in their charter that they don't acknowledge it and that their weapons are basically their instruments of God.

And that's it. That's, I mean, actually in Hamas' actual literal verbatim charter. So you look at somebody like Abbas and you're like, there are no lesser devils here, really. Is one lesser than the other? I mean, do you want the one that seems moderately somewhat less devilish than the actual? I don't know. That's how horrible is that? That's your choice.

That's the reality. I can't imagine the United States putting up with something like that. You have to keep this into, you have to keep this guy. there because the moment this guy's gone, all hell's going to break loose over there with Hamas. They're going to try and go for power. And they'll be able to do it too. So it's interesting that he's blocked from coming into the UN. Looking at this whole Macklemore thing, I read this piece, this editorial that I thought really made a great point about Ed Shearren and was over at this thing called Spiked. Because this dude, do we even know,

I know he's British. I know a couple of his songs, but it's not my jam. He's, they're targeting him, even though it was his promoter that dropped that Dippy two-hit wonder, not in 15 years since, Macklemore guy. It's been, it's been the promoter that did this, but they are going after Ed Shear and why? Because I guess he didn't say anything in some.

Solidarity. This was Ed Shearin's tour. We're talking about the Maclemore being dropped over his tour. That was, but this is, it's bigger than just that. That's just the jumping off point. This is McElmore's or Ed Shearan's tour. It's his fans who are filling up the stadiums. Nobody's, it's, it's really them. No one's going there to theme Malcolmmore. That's why so many people complain. That's why the promoter dropped him because so many people complained. to the promoter. I don't think you realize that he didn't just get up on stage and say free Palestine. He got up on stage and ran his mouth for an extended period of time and was trying to turn everything into a giant rally. And people were like, we came here for an escape. We paid money to watch music and you're not doing that. But what's more is, you know, Sharon, he is doing his job. He's there to entertain his fans, right? he's there to entertain his fans. And I even think this editorial gets it wrong because they said,

well, Shearin said by to McImore. It was his promoter that did it. And then after the promoter did it, the venues were looking at it, like, we don't want this drama. We don't want, no. And then so Shearin's whole band, everybody's trying to punish Ed Shearin because Ed Shearin won't bend the knee. He won't come out, I guess, and say, yeah, McElmore, you blew up my tour. or you're trying to blow up my tour.

And my band decided to jump on this too because everybody's a jack wagon. So, I mean, good heavens. McElmore has been trying different schicks. He tried the same sex marriage thing as a part of his act. He did the whole white privilege thing, the BLM thing, because he hasn't had a hit in so long. He's desperately trying to find some kind of jumpstart to his career. And he thinks he landed on it with this. I mean, this is a guy who dressed up in a black wig and put on a hook nose and stood on stage and did the Nazi salute for crying out loud.

I mean, yeah, don't sit here and tell me that he's not an anti-Semite. The word was invented for that. But this is the vanity of this guy who thought that the crowds that were selling, that were buying the tickets to these stadiums were coming to see him. They were going to see Ed Shearron, who could buy and sell McElmore, not just with the number. of hits, but with the money that he's made just off his talent alone. But isn't that what the whole cult of Palestinianism is? And that's what this editorial I thought touched on very smartly is that this idea that you can just commandeer something you didn't build, you had no part in, and you can just hijack it and make it your own without putting anything into it.

And the guy was mad because he couldn't do Nuremberg Rally Part 2 there. I don't know. It was just crazy. And it was, his remarks were just super stupid. I was reading a transcript. It's just dumb. People go there to see a concert and they're getting yelled at. But I love this. This is a over at Spike. Brendan O'Neill wrote this. And this is a really good piece because he gets into, he says, Gazamania is a movement, not for liberation, but for conquest. and that's exactly true. It is exactly true. You either bend the knee or they call you a genocide denier, even though there's no such thing as a genocide.

Although I've seen a lot of names, Zio Cuck, all kinds of crazy stuff. And they're saying this about Ed Sheeran now. They're saying he's complicit because he won't get out there and do the same thing that McElmore is. So they are punishing Shearin for McElmore's. How was that his,

how was that anything to do with McElmore and free speech? If you're getting mad at Ed Shearren, free speech is also choosing to not exercise it. And they're going after Shearren for using his free speech discretion. They don't believe in free speech. They don't believe in anything that they claim. This is just about control and grifting. That's it. I mean, this is, it's awful what they're doing to this guy. Have you seen some of the graphics that they came out with that they had a, there was one drawing of Ed Shearhan, it was an editorial, where they had him holding an RPG at a kid that was wrapped in the Ghazan flag. Like, how is Ed Shearhan doing this? Do you see how loopy it's gotten? It's a cult. It is a cult. It's the new BLM. That's it. It's the new BLM. It's the new all of this.

And then the Massachusetts governor, did you guys hear this? Now, Marahili is, or not, I'm not Marahili. This is not, I'm not talking about it. That's a different headline. Hold up, hold up, This is in Michigan. So a Detroit, this is actually with Dearborn, Michigan. The mayor of basically Little Mogadishu came out and said that they want to have a free concert. They're going to invite McElmore to have a free concert at Little Mogadishu. They're going to bring him out there. So they're going to spend taxpayer dollars.

He's proposing to spend taxpayer dollars to bring this grifter to Dearborn for a quote unquote free concert. Is he going to even be able to fill up a parking lot? I don't know. Just insane. But yeah, they want to bring him to Dearborn to do it. He probably will because he's a grifter and he needs the money. I almost feel bad for Ed Shearin, though, right?

Now, going to Massachusetts, back to this headline. Switching gears here. So as it pertains to the whole Lindsay Cleansy thing, Mari Healy, there's a program in Massachusetts, apparently that involves nurse calls to postpartum mothers, and she's wanting to expand that. So this is a horribly written piece over a daily mail, by the way, they bury the lead. Mara Healy wants to provide quote unquote free home visits by nurses to all mothers with newborns.

Now, that sounds like, oh, it's a free checkup. No, it sounds like monitoring. Doesn't it? Does it sound like monitoring to you? Sounds like that to me. Boston Globe reported it. They want to send out nurses and expand this program to every postpartum mother in the state. Is it going to be mandatory? They haven't said. I don't know how I feel about that. Does that sound to y'all out there like that's monitoring? Cane, does that sound like monitoring to you? Oh, really? You don't think so? I don't like it. I think, isn't that what the families are for? It's what the families are for.

But what do you mean free? That's going to be a lot of money to send a nurse out to every single home in the state. That's going to be incredibly expensive because it's, they said that there's on average 68,000 newborns in Massachusetts annually. So how much is that going to cost taxpayers? Now, she's already allocated, she's already allocated two, million dollars to it, but that's just the starting price. You know it's going to grow from there. Another taxpayer-funded government program. You know, the Lindsay Clancy case, cases like this are rare.

They happen, you know, like we always talk about gun control, mass casualty incidents are rare, but they happen. Incidents like the Clancy case, they're rare, but they happen. But that is the exception, not the rule. We should not be doing stuff like this on exceptions at all whatsoever. And that's in Massachusetts. In Massachusetts, they'll take your kid away if you don't trans them or affirm their pronouns. That's the same government that you want sending nurses door to door to check on postpartum moms. As we move, the folks who won't make the program possible, it's our friends at Berna. I always carry, I have no problem popping a batty full of lead if they pose a threat to me or my family. If someone wants to FAAFO and they want to get on the business in on one of my guns,

I'm your Huckleberry. I also realize that sometimes some of you might have to go to places where you can't carry. Some of you might be 20-year-old college kids. I mean, sure, when you're 18, you can go and carry full auto somewhere else, but God forbid if you carry, you know, a 22 to defend yourself walking to class or walking home from class at 7 o'clock at night, this is where Berna comes in. Really, you could argue it's kind of what it was made for. It's an option to have, not a replacement, but it's an option to have when your options are limited. And so to that effect, it shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threat from up to 60 feet away. It's not a gun. So it doesn't care about gun-free zone signs. And it has a 15-round shot capacity per cartridge.

Compare that to maybe two, one or two rounds with the taser or stun gun. So you order it online and it goes right to your door. There's no background checks. There's no waiting periods. It's roughly the size of an iPhone. There's no recoil, easy target acquisition. this is a great option to have when your options are limited.

It's his life mission to make bad decisions.

It's time for Florida man. A Florida man was mad about being accused of trust. passing on a property and was asked to leave. So he left, came back to slash the tires. And he was caught on drone footage doing so. Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office located Kilos Ferdinand after he returned to the residence from which he had just been trespassed. And the sheriff's drone team, they saw him use a pocket knife to slash the tires of a victim's vehicle. He was arrested with that incident. How dumb are you to do something like this? I just assume, that, I don't know, I want a whole little drone army of surveillance.

I would like that. Whole drone army of surveillance. I don't know. I'm not going to use this. Okay, so Florida woman, Amber sent me the grossest Florida woman story, and I'm not reading it. And I think you know which one I'm talking about, Kane. Yeah, it involved the Florida woman and her family dog, and that's all I'm saying. I'm not doing, no, I'm not even, we're not doing anything else.

So a Florida woman met a man at a club. he thought she was really into him and decided he he was going to take her home with him she went then she drugged him and stole $100,000 Rolex watch okay first off I if you have that kind of money to spend I hope you are also like donating some of your church

but I still don't understand even if I was a billionaire I don't think I could pay six figures for a watch I really don't think I could right I would even be able to bring myself to pay like anything over $20 for a t-shirt. Like the t-shirt I'm in now, I literally got on Amazon. Everyone's like,

what do you get yourself? I literally buy in bulk on it. I'm not even joking. The shirt was like $9. What? I wouldn't go to the club with a $100,000 damn watch. No, I wouldn't either. And that's the thing.

It's like, and also you can dress nice without being blinged out like that, but I mean, what message are you sending? I don't know. So this 32-year-old woman, her name is Linda Mae Kraus.

Of course, her name. is Linda with a why y'all she's accused of a similar scheme at least four other times in Miami-Dade county allegedly drugging her victims before making off with their valuables that is according to the probable cause affidavit by our county case she is being charged four stems from an encounter at the carousel club she struck up with a conversation with a man around midnight he thought she was legit into him look she's probably not she's probably going to drugging and steal your watch. What is the, guys, what's the overall story? Don't be a whore. That's it. That's the big story, right? That's it. Let's see. I'm not doing that one.

That one's nasty. Some of y'all send me some. Kane gives me some, and then the rest of you send me the worst ones. And Kane has been trying not to send me the bad ones. Thank you, Kane. I appreciate you. I appreciate it because I just saw some of what's out there. The folks who make the program possible, it's our friends at Preborn. They are right there where women who are facing unplanned pregnancies, shows them that there is hope. There is another way, and you don't have to listen to the world's poison that you're not strong enough to raise your child. And so that's what preborn does. They offer emotional, practical, and faith-based support that's centered on compassion and the hope of God's love. They introduced women to their children through an ultrasound. $28 is the cost of saving a life.

Is that not unbelievable? Just $28. It's a meal out. $28. And you can sponsor one ultrasound, $140, sponsors five ultrasounds. Imagine saving five lives. As treasure in heaven, y'all, pre-born not only does the offers free ultrasounds and studies, by the way, have shown when a woman facing or contemplating abortion, here's her child's ultrasound that baby's chance that life doubles, but they don't just stop there. They partner with these women for the first two years of their infant's lives to make sure that the family is starting off on the strongest foot possible. So there's no backsliding and they don't become a statistic. $28 sponsors an ultrasound. Again, 140 does five. And for the mothers in crisis, if you really want to make a real practical stand for life,

That's preborn.com slash Dana. Dial pound 250. Say the word baby. Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States.

said that America is the top dog in terrorism. Yes. Do you think America then is worse than al-Qaeda? Pound for pound, as far as the number of deaths, yes, we've caused tremendous terror all around the world. So Hassan Piker, he did this fluffy little interview, which we're going to talk about coming up next hour with Axios. Because he's just a streamer, right? He's just some guy on Twitch. He's just a streamer, the Democrat spokesperson.

person. I mean, that's what we've been told over and over again. But here's the issue. Then why is he on Axios? Huh? The other thing is, too, he's been, he's been crashing out all morning since this thing aired. It's so dumb. It's really dumb. He, we've got other cuts from him, too. But he tweeted, he goes, oh, they were framing or they're farming the interview. I gave a nuanced answer about acts of terror this administration's caused, and they clickbait it. No, that's not what happened. His absolute in articulacy is not nuance. He's not, he is an intellectual lightweight. He is actually one of the stupidest people I've ever heard speak. And I'm not saying that just because he's a terror sim. He's just not bright. He's not a bright guy. He just says a whole

bunch of stuff knowing that people are going to be passively listening and they're not going to really listen to everything that he says. But even in these soft interviews, like that, they can't even buff out this stupidity just even there. It's actually comical. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five.

Guys, this is a happy little headline. A little happy headline for you right now. Just three minutes with a mini horse or a mini donkey improves teenagers' moods, says a study. It says that makes them feel less anxious, sad, and lonely,

and more calm. Does it have be mini, though? Because the story starts out. It's Washington Post. The teenagers were given a simple task. Spend three minutes petting or scratching a rescued miniature horse and donkey.

And then they rated their anxiety levels after it. Well, duh, we know this. But does it have to be a miniature? I mean, if you want to fully reduce your anxiety, it needs to be miniature. Otherwise, it's only halfway. You know what I mean? I don't understand. I also would like a mini horse. I mean, it's just a big dog, right? I'd totally have a mini horse, man.

I absolutely would. Okay, we're the rest of the headlines. Can you see what I got distracted by during break? Obviously. So this break bone fever, I don't even know what this is, but I don't like it. Mosquitoes, one of the most worthless creatures that have ever been created. Apparently, it's that break bone, what do they call it, the dengue, whatever fever? Dengue.

Is it real? Thank you. dengay, like been gay, but with dens. Dengay, thank you. It's a part of a larger outbreak. It's in Hillsborough County in Florida. Florida Department of Health, though, they haven't yet confirmed it, but apparently people are saying that it's spreading just locally, but it's apparently it's a far away illness, far away illness, but they call it breakbone fever because people get a high fever, pounding headache, pain behind the eyes, and deep aches in their muscles, joints, and bones.

Why do we have mosquitoes? Thank you. I'm going to ask Google this on break. We don't need it. Cybercabs. I thought this said crabs, and I was terrified. Cybercabs are taking psychotic roots that turn tiny trips around the neighborhood into hours-long nightmares. One lady said to her cyber cab held her hostage for forever.

Is this just a Tesla hit piece? It sounds like a Tesla hit piece because they only talk about Tesla cybercabs. And they make sure to say Tesla's cybercabs. and they make sure to say Tesla's cybercabs a million times. Try the Waymos that run into literally everything. Don't let people out of the car and go down dead-in streets, you morons. Let's see. Now they're saying the Kingsguard bearskin caps have to be fake fur

because everyone's sensitive.
