Starting point is 00:00:56 Buy tickets and gift cards now at ice skating. welcome to the program dana lash with you we are at the the hell is this top of the first hour it feels like we're in the news cycle where it feels like it's a never ending every day is the same it just never ends never ever ends it's just all the same all the same so welcome to the program because we're in that funk you got everybody in dc that they're dragging their feet on all of these different issues dragging their feet on nominations or a couple there are a number of nominations that are being stalled out on this. So welcome to the program. We got the chat over running a rumble. We've got Facebook YouTube. Make sure you sign up, like and subscribe,
Starting point is 00:01:40 substack as well. So I get it. He's upset. He's upset. And he was also caught. And they were like, oh, he's caught on a hot mic. Hot mic. I don't think he, I don't, I think he knows that the mic is open cane. The way that they're talking there, the way that they presented in the press was like, oh my gosh, Trump is talking on a hot mic. He's too stupid to know that it's. Now, I think that's the whole point of him ranting by the mic. I'm a little cranky today. I've got to tell you, because the weather can't make up it's mine. And we have some stupidity happening in Texas in terms of politics. Let's dive into it. Jasmine Crockett. By the way, one of the reasons I'm crabby is because there are a bunch of, I'm trying to be nice cane, short bus riders that
Starting point is 00:02:28 don't understand what the word carpetbagger means. How is it 2025 and nobody knows what that is? They're intimating that I apparently called her a naughty name when I said she was a carpetbagger on Fox, Jasmine Crockett, because she is. That's like the politicians that go
Starting point is 00:02:44 down to enrich themselves. That's, you know, during the Civil War, that's what it was. She came out of Texas to enrich herself and she's changed seats three times now. She's been redistricted out. She's announced that she's running for Texas Senate. I have a piece up about it at
Starting point is 00:03:00 Substack for you subscribers. You already have that. And she's decided that she is going to run and challenge the going into the Texas Senate race. It's John Cornyn is the
Starting point is 00:03:16 incumbent. He's being challenged by Ken Paxton and Wesley Hunt. She's going to lose this too, by the way. But there's something here. So let me set this up for you. She doesn't have a shot in hell at winning this race, because she's the nutty candidate. So she's also in this race with James Talarico. Do you guys know who James Talarico is? Bonus points if you don't. James
Starting point is 00:03:39 Talarico is, he presents as a eunuch, but that's part of the sinister aspect of his personality. He presents as a eunuch. He acts like, I'm just this soft progressive Christian. There's no such thing as a progressive Christian. I'm just this so progressive Christian. I love me some abortions. I love me some gun control. I love open borders. That's him, right? That's that guy. He, you know how Haley Joel Osmet still looks like the kid from six sons? Okay, that's him, basically. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like the stand-in. He looks like the stand-in for an adult Haley Joel Osmet. And no offense to Haley Joel Osmet. That's just how this guy is. He's a super Marxist. I think we have some audio before I die. go into it further. Where this is
Starting point is 00:04:28 he was Tellerico was slamming he was slaming capitalism. I put this in slack last night. He was slaming capitalism and he was saying that billionaires were bad. I don't know. I'm looking at my audio. We got a lot of audio.
Starting point is 00:04:48 He was saying that billionaires were bad you know, et cetera. He is not, we got 17,000 cuts of Jasmine Crockett. I want to just wanted Tala Rico. I guess we don't have it. Um, do you have, can you play it? Because just so I can make, get to my next point, that'd be great. Isn't poverty exists in the wealthiest country on earth is not because we can't feed the
Starting point is 00:05:08 poor. It's because we can't satisfy the rich. Elon Musk is about to become the first trillionaire. He's about to make more money than every elementary school teacher in America combined. What? Do we really believe one man is, worth more than every elementary school teacher. Why do we have a trillionaire? What in the world is happening? That's James Tolerico. So he's mad that Elon Musk
Starting point is 00:05:35 is going to be a trillionaire. Now, the reason I bring him up is because he's in this Democrat primary for the Senate race. It's him and Crockett. Tellerico thinks that it's bad that Elon Musk is a trillionaire because of elementary school teachers, Kane. Is that I get that right?
Starting point is 00:05:51 Yeah. I need to put some gin in my coffee. I'm not going to get to this day without throwing something, am I? Like Amy Klobuchar style. Probably not. So he's upset because Elon Musk is going to be a trillionaire and something teachers. Trillionaires are bad because teachers. Comparing apples to oranges and just to try to get outrage out of people who are emotionally unstable. So it's bad that, look, Elon Musk made different life choices and went into an entirely different field.
Starting point is 00:06:25 you illiterate eunuch he went into an entirely different field why is it bad that he's successful i can't stand these like flabby soft progressive dudes so bad that he has so much money well then why don't you get out there make some better choices player why don't you get out there and and sacrifice the time and effort that others do in order to get ahead in life player my gosh I feel like less grossman right now. A G5 airplane and lots of money. But it's like demonizing the mechanic because the hot dog stand guy doesn't make as much. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:07:04 It's stupid. Yeah. How dare you this welder make all this money when the nail tech doesn't make that much money? I mean, can you believe it? It's so bad. I mean, how dare, you know, this contractor make this amount of money? when you have a hostess at Applebee's not make that much money. It's so evil.
Starting point is 00:07:29 That doesn't even make any sense. That's like, I love cherries and also think that hummus is great. Like what? What? Doesn't even make it. It's like a bunch of non-sequit are strung together to sound like a coherent thought. That's James Talarico. Anyway, he's running in this Democrat primary.
Starting point is 00:07:49 with fake lashes, McWigs. So he's in this Democrat primary with her. Now, in Texas, Democrats have, well, I don't know, it's been a few years since the Democrats won a statewide office. That's not to say that a Democrat can't run, can't win a statewide office, just not the Democrats they've been picking. The Democrats they're picking,
Starting point is 00:08:16 I don't, okay, so let me set the stage. I want everybody to go back to their youth, go back to the days when you were in the tavern or the club and you were having a, just a fun, innocent night out with friends. And it's last call and the lights go up. Maybe you were looking to get somebody's phone number before you were leaving for the night. And you, you know, oh my gosh, you waited too long. So the pickings are slim. The pickings are slim. And as the lights come up, I don't know if you've ever seen the movie Crybaby, but every chicken there looks like Hatchet Face.
Starting point is 00:08:48 from Crybaby. Google it. I mean, every chick in there looks like she got run over by a Mack truck. Every, or is one. Every chicken there is rough looking and you're like, my gosh, this is what I have. This is all that's left, right? It's like if you get a box of donuts, right? Maybe you're at work, maybe it's family. And all the good donuts are gone by the time you get in the kitchen and you're looking and it's all the dumb ones that nobody wants, right? With the pink icing or the glitter that's bitter. Nobody wants that. Same thing. Basically, it's like they run the leftovers.
Starting point is 00:09:23 But the sad thing is that's their first, that's their first, their starters. Those are their starters. And they don't have anybody else. They have, all they have are these crazy far left Marxists that scream, or they're like James Tolariko who try to make themselves look like their Castratis. I don't know how else to say it. they try to make themselves look like they're innocuous, but they're way more sinister than they seem. So these two are battling it out for the Democrat primary. Now, again, it's not to say
Starting point is 00:09:58 that a Democrat can't win a statewide race. It is to say that the Democrat candidates they pick don't. Now, Colin Allred is a little bit more normal, although he's still like a big, gun hate, and Marxist, right? And he doesn't understand money. Tala Rico is as crazy as Jasmine Crockett, he just doesn't let it fly all out there, right? That's the thing. He is at least smart enough to keep it hidden deep inside his heart in the closet with other things. Anyway, so Jasmine Crockett is going to be the one that's going to make the most noise. As Cain said, yes, he's the same crazy. He just has a different inside voice. So Jasmine Crockett, they're doing the whole Beto O'Rourke, Wendy Davis strategy where they're going to run this crazy candidate. She's
Starting point is 00:10:44 going to build a mailing list and you're never going to get rid of her. She's going to be like a fever blister. She's just going to keep or what is it? What do those people get? The fever spots on their mouths? What is it? The mouth herpes? Cold source. Thank you. She's like a cold sore. She's never going to go away. She's going to be hanging around for a long time. So my point is that this is a strategy, an overall strategy that they have in order to try to build the mailing list so that they can run, maybe a more decent candidate later. Republicans can still mess this up. I mean, make no mistake. We are talking about the GOP. I mean, they can still completely foobar this up. We'll talk more about that. We've got a lot to get into.
Starting point is 00:11:24 Oh, my gosh, we got Islamism to get into. This video of a girl, she ended up being attacked and raped in a British park and they're not releasing it because they think there will be riots if they release it. It's so bad. I got a whole bunch of aliens, a whole bunch of stuff for you as we move. Our partners, it'll bring you the program. It's the folks over at Ammo Square.

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. I'm just floored at one of the things that I saw on Netflix, right?
Starting point is 00:18:00 Just when you think it can't get more ridiculous. Let me ask you this. First off, welcome back. You guys remember Madlibs, right? Oh, yeah. everybody remembers Madlibs. And if you don't know what Madlibs are, Steve, do you know what Madlibs are?
Starting point is 00:18:18 So, that's, okay, okay, all right, all right, all right. So, you know, you would have a story and you'd have fill in the blank and you've got to pick a couple of words and it always tells some kind of crazy story. I feel like that's where Netflix is and their content development. And when I first saw this,
Starting point is 00:18:34 much like I first, when I first saw the Star Trek, the new Star Trek thing, and it looked like Glee in space. I thought that's not real. This is no way this is real. It's too ridiculous. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:18:49 I'm going to learn at some point, Kane, that the dumber it is, the realer it is. Let me ask you guys this. What would you watch a story about, not just about coal mines, but about a trans woman working in the coal mines? In Argentina. So a guy?
Starting point is 00:19:11 Working in the coal mines in Argentina? Mm-hmm. No. Mm-hmm. This is how they, under more details, this is how they tag it. Okay. This is also so dumb.
Starting point is 00:19:26 It says, this show is sincere, inspiring, drama, algebraicia plus, overcoming the odds. Argentinian, intimate, fight the system. Oh, the only reason I watch Netflix anymore, is because of the Great British Baking show. That's it. That's all I care about anymore. So this show is called the Queen of Coal.
Starting point is 00:19:50 And it's about a dude with a weenus who pretends to be a woman working in the coal mines. We can't show you a clip because we'll get, even though it's fair use, we get hit with copyright infringements because YouTube, is a goat fornicator, and that's why. So, Netflix, Queen of Coal, do you want to watch a dude pretending to be a woman dreaming about working in the coal mines, but in a town steeped in superstition and patriarchy?
Starting point is 00:20:25 Oh my gosh, wait, full flipping stop. Hold up. So a dude dressed as a woman working in the coal mines is bitching about the patriarchy. Hmm. Huh. I call shenanigans. Nothing says patriarchy. Then trying to self-victimize your, like be a bigger victim by pretending to be a woman in the coal mines. It is a dude pretending to be a woman in the coal mines in a movie about the patriarchy. He's taking their jobs. He's taking their jobs.
Starting point is 00:21:08 I don't even want to, I don't want to watch a movie about a coal mine anyway. way it's just sadness and dirt i don't and i definitely don't want to watch a man and prance around pretending that he's got a did this mentally ill man that dresses like a woman to work in the coal mines invent a new way to extract coal or maybe um i don't know a faster more efficient way safer way to extract cool from the mines you're really tempting me right now i mean we're at the end of the air. So my filter and my resistance to bad thoughts is add an all-time locane.
Starting point is 00:21:44 You're just playing with fire right now. I appreciate the warning. Do you want me to really answer this? I think he wants me to really answer this question. I kind of do. All right. So I don't know. Maybe when he went into the Franken shop, maybe he just got a special poot sack that allows him to extract coal with an appendage. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:22:06 I don't know. Like, I just feel if you're going to be stupid with your Netflix shows, then we are going to be equally absurd with trying to figure out what the hell you're doing here. Do you guys want to watch the Queen of Cole except it's not a queen? It's a dude pretending to be one. What in the Mad Lips Hell is happening? Who sat around and greenlit this show? I really want to know this. Who sat around and decided to green light this show?
Starting point is 00:22:36 The, and it's a real show. I swear to you, I'm not making this up. I swear, I promise I'm not. It is, uh, all right, would you watch it, Kane? Would I watch it? Mm-hmm. For what reason? I don't find anything, uh, entertaining or that I'll discover anything new or learn anything.
Starting point is 00:22:56 The story is about, uh, Carl. Oh, sorry, Carlita. Oh, that's a dude. Guys, he's the first transminor in Patagonia. All I know is that when his mother looked upon his face when he was first born, she thought, my son's going to grow up one day, pretend to be a woman, and act like he's really breaking some barriers by being the first trans woman coal miner in Patagonia. Right?
Starting point is 00:23:24 What would you do if your husband's like, hey sweetheart, let's watch this great movie on Netflix. Ooh, what's it about? It's about a man who's pretending to be a woman so he can be the first trans coal miner. are in Patagonia. What? Yeah. Thoughts, Cain? It probably gets 100 on rotten tomatoes.
Starting point is 00:23:52 Oh my gosh, it's going to get 11,000 hundred on rotten tomatoes. That's all those freaks like. They're like the cookier it is, the freakyer it is, the more Frankenweenesses that are in it, we're going to love it. That's what it should be called.
Starting point is 00:24:04 Frankenweeness in the coal mine. that's the i just retitled it look i saved you a click that's what it should be i can't make fun of this enough because this is just shows this is why a you know what we were talking about how trump was told they're alien hybrids i found one found it's whoever the hell did this movie they're in the boardroom all right uh who has ideas uh yeah bob down there yes well i would like to pitch a movie about a man pretending to be a woman working in the coal mines. That sounds real weird and out of this world. I mean, and it, he's almost caught. That's what happened here. So they said it is an ode to resilience. Do you think that the trans man
Starting point is 00:24:56 and the woman in the coal mine worked the same amount of hours? Because they're like, oh, well, it's an occupation vetoed for women. Oh, well, look, the man dressed up as a woman and broke through the barrier. You didn't even need a woman to do that. Just have the man do it. You're just going to tape it back up there and go out there in a dress. Oh my gosh. So that's that's Netflix. That's what's happening over there. So first you've got glee in space, aka Star Trek, where they're all laying in a meadow like twilight holding hands. That's some fruit. And then you got this. Frankenweens in the coal mine. Just saying, I mean, in Kane, to your point,
Starting point is 00:25:37 it would have been, like, you know, what if they were talking about, well, this person, against all odds, figured out a new way to extract coal. It figured out a new way to mine, a new safer way. Right. Right. Innovation.
Starting point is 00:25:52 Innovation. Well, they innovated that, you know, what? They, wrong innovation. Wrong innovation. That's not even innovation, actually. that's we don't know what that is but it's not innovation oh my gosh i do you want me to now you're giving me titles alternative titles in slack cane yes not for air why are they in slack then because that's not on air but it's about the air no it's not i don't know i just feel like they'd want to know
Starting point is 00:26:27 so is that a rule when in order to do netflix shows do they stop and go okay well how many trans are in here. What? I think so. I'm not kidding. They're like 0.5% if that, not even that, of the population. Now they've got to be over hyperrepresented in everything. Wait a minute, we can't do this unless we got a tranny in it.
Starting point is 00:26:49 Oh, we can't say tranny, Bob. That's bad. Okay, unless we got a Frankenweens in this, it's better. It's bigotry and, you know, according to their rules, if not. I'm waiting for the next great football movie where it's, what was that one with James Kahn? I had to watch it when I was a kid. It's like one of my husband's favorite movies. You know what I'm talking,
Starting point is 00:27:10 the internet is going to tell me in droves here? But it's, what if they did like an old football movie in that vein? Or an old hockey movie. And it's the first trans player and it's this dude. You're not revolutionizing everything. He doesn't have to wear a cup. You know why? Because he got his weakness removed.
Starting point is 00:27:26 So no cup required. Innovation. Oh my gosh. Can't. I can't. All right, I need to move and ask you guys a question. Would you eat this? Would you eat ice cream dipped in butter?
Starting point is 00:27:45 Yes, I would. What? So this, it's a grocery chain. I don't know why everyone in my life thinks that this is amazing. We're showing you pictures of it now. It's ice cream dipped in butter. It was a regional
Starting point is 00:28:01 grocery store. They do butter-dipped ice cream cones, soft serve dipped in butter. And they said it's insane. So it's, someone said, we don't even do that in Wisconsin. It's, would you like some butter on your butter? That's kind of what I'm looking at that. How doesn't it melt the soft serve? Hot melted butter? It's like the same with the, you know how you get the chocolate dip and it hardens the shell because they use coconut oil on it? As soon as the temperature that the butter touches is cold, butter solidified. and so it becomes this like little like crust butter crust on the outside of your your cone I don't know how I feel about this it just looks weird I don't know if I would
Starting point is 00:28:46 do that I mean it's that's I've tried do they never want to use the restroom again I've tried what it's it's gonna clog you all up I mean that's you're gonna look like those people in Wally eating those I don't think that's out guys Juan's over there I would eat this one even would eat this one who like recoils against anything sugar like a vampire to light look people think that like beef tallow or butter or those are like bad fats like we've been taught over the decades that those are bad fats and in reality it's not now obviously sourcing sourcing is important but yeah where's the you know where's the butter coming from but in reality I would do this and I've done it before I've done it at home before it's pretty simple I don't know that I would do
Starting point is 00:29:32 this that just seems like immediately I just hear all I hear is Wilford Brimley diabetes it's all I hear and it's good when you use the salted butter it actually gives it a nice salty sweet little savory flavor like I'm for this
Starting point is 00:29:50 I don't know Lorraine said longest yard that's one of the football movies there's another isn't there a sad one where a guy got his head knocked off and it rolled on the field I don't know something like that with James Conn in it the football movie roller ball no it's a football movie and he got hurt real bad and died.

Hey, Kelsey, can you tell us what you think about Trump's job performance so far in his first term? Or second term? He's great. What issues are you most concerned about that he's doing well on?
Starting point is 00:33:53 Well, I think the economy's actually going really well. I think so, sir. And we'll see what happens in the next year or so. I mean, what I always love is when the Democrats start talking about affordability. You always know they're going to charge it twice as much. And spend three times as much. I think they're ever going to bring back Frazier? I think they did.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Did they? There was a good show. My mom watched that when I was a kid. Yeah, I think they did reboot it. I don't know if it's still running, but I think it did at least another season. Yeah, that was a good show. So that was him. Was he here, I guess, at the Kennedy Center stuff?
Starting point is 00:34:31 last night. Gene Simmons was out in about as well. This is a cut 34. Don't ask him who we voted for. Gene, you've been a friend of President Trump's for a long time. You've known him from Celebrity Apprentice. What's your take on his job performance of Hart? He's supportive of the way he's handling the office? Why do you care? I'll be interested to see what you think, and you've known him from the nonsense. It's all clickbait. When I was first starting to vote, there used to be a curtain, and you voted anonymously, and you voted your conscience. And nowadays, people want to know who you're voting for. What the f***ing business is anybody's?
Starting point is 00:35:14 It's not your business. That's why every person, one person, one vote, makes the difference. And you guys inflamed the situation by asking people, so, who did you vote? Who are you for? You're for a gorilla monsoon or President Biden? He and Trump are, and I've met both of them. I know both of them. They are very similar in terms of their behavior.
Starting point is 00:35:36 Very similar. When POTUS, this was some years ago when I introduced him at CPAC, and my husband was with me, and we were backstage, and I introduced him to the president. We were talking. And I can't remember what he said. Like, you're a powerful and attractive man, you know, like, shook us, did the man handshake. the first time we met Gene Simmons, Gene Simmons literally said the exact same thing and did the same thing. And we were like, are they the same person? Never seen them in the same.
Starting point is 00:36:08 Well, I mean, they were in the same room, I guess, at the Kennedy Center. But that was very, they are so similar. They are so similar. Their mannerisms, their manner of speaking, their countenance even, very similar. It's just kind of funny. Anyway, we've got, a lot, a lot. Some of these stories are really, they're really, I'm going to warn you, they're really infuriating that I have for you, especially as it pertains to Islamism and some of the stuff, not just happening here, but some of the stuff that's been happening as well overseas, this one horrible story where you had footage captured of these Afghan immigrants that attacked a girl in Britain
Starting point is 00:36:57 and it was captured on video and the police are apparently there they don't want to release any of the footage because they said that there would be riots if the public saw it. We're going to talk about that coming up. Stick with us. We have more to come folks as we wrap up this third hour of the program

Well, they certainly contribute. Yeah, I want to see people. Yeah, I want to see people that contribute. I don't want to see, Somalia. I don't want to see a woman that, you know, marries her brother to get in and then becomes a congressman, does nothing but complain. All she does is complain, complain, and yet her country's a mess, you know, it's one of the worst in the world. Let her go back, fix up her own country. So, no, Somalia, yeah, and I was right about it. You know, I started complaining about Somalia long before the scandal. The horrible, the horrible things they're doing to
Starting point is 00:40:20 Minnesota, it's incredible. They have an incompetent governor there, too. The Democrats are running some bad chips. She didn't marry her brother, you know. She totally did. Totally married her brother. That's why Trump talking about Illinois. I just think it's funny because, you know, she just gets enraged every time. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash at the Utah at the second hour. I hate, where's my story that I wanted to pull up here? Because she, okay, so she's very similar to Marjorie Taylor Green, which, you know, Marjorie Taylor Green went into Congress, $700,000, walked out like $20,000 million. And no, it wasn't all construction, with her family's construction, but it was not all that. It's all on open secrets. I mean, they track this.
Starting point is 00:41:03 It's all, and it shows you, there's also websites that track trading, and it shows you the moves that they make when they make them very, very interesting and how much money they made. So just FYI. But Illinois, Marr, another one, she went, when she went into office, she had six, had about $65,000. In three years, she made $30 million. This is per newsmax. $30 million. Wow, she just must be really good
Starting point is 00:41:31 at investing in trading cane. So good. The only explanation. That's it. What is she even doing in Congress? If she can make $30 million in three years. Look, I just want a lawmaker to do
Starting point is 00:41:46 this for me. Just let you know what I got to do and I'm going to make that bank. I'm not even kidding. I, this is why look, I'm telling y'all, I have no interest. First off, I would not want to represent anybody that would vote for me. What is wrong with you? No, because I absolutely would be a bully and a tyrant. I know my limits. This is, I'm good here. I'm good, right? I'm good. If you don't, if you don't do it my way, then there's going to be serious penalties. The beatings will continue until the morale improves. I would absolutely be making fat bank getting my tax money back.
Starting point is 00:42:21 That's what I'd be doing. I just, they need to not, I think that you shouldn't be, you shouldn't be allowed to trade if you're in Congress. You know, POTUS has to, has to divest from everything when he goes into elected office. So why not these people? Hmm? I feel like that's a fair question, don't you think so? Dana, you sound jealous.
Starting point is 00:42:41 I'm only jealous of them being able. to use loopholes that are not open to us. Yes, I have a major problem with that. I want to be able to use those too. That's all I'm saying. But this whole situation with everything that's happening in Minnesota, you realize this is a soft power move, right? This is a way to invade. It is a way. I like to say colonize just because the left uses that word with such reckless abandoned. And one of my favorite things is hijacking the leftist language and just bending it over and just making it submit very harshly. I love taking their language and using it against them. But I do agree that it's more of an invasion as opposed to colonization. But it is a soft power move. I mean, you're going up there and you're hijacking
Starting point is 00:43:31 and using entitlement programs to enrich yourself, enrich militias, get your candidates elected. Why isn't, and I know that it was already investigated once, and I wanted to make this differentiation. So when Ilan Omar, and the reason, by the way, that we all talk about her brother is because she had used campaign donation dollars to fund her legal fees to divorce her brother. That's how all of this came out. And she actually had to pay a fine for that. I don't know if people remember. She, what they, the board of elections found her guilty. And she had to pay a fine for it. Now, the other question I have is related to this is this, because this started taking place after that story. So the investigation into her misappropriation or misuse of campaign funds to pay her legal fees, that happened before this whole situation with all of the Somali diaspora and the fraud that's in Minnesota.
Starting point is 00:44:40 So this is a separate case. and I bring it up because there was only, what, 20, 21, that one of the guys convicted had donated tons of money to her campaign. Now, that guy was convicted. He was a Somali national. So how is it that he's convicted? He donated a ton of money to her campaign.
Starting point is 00:45:02 It was discovered, and he was the one who owned that Safari, whatever restaurant that she had her campaign events at. She had her campaign events there. she, they kicked off the, um, one of the, uh, feed, uh, feed our future events. So remember, the feed our future was the program. That was the COVID era program that said, oh, we're going to go and feed these kids that would otherwise not eat because schools are closed due to the pandemic. So we're going to make sure that these kids who normally wouldn't get a good meal still have a meal. So this guy made up, he just made up names and all this stuff and defrauded the program
Starting point is 00:45:49 of, I think it was, what was it came, $250-something-million. That's just one. There's three programs that all the amounts lead up actually over a billion. And so my point is that she had an event at his restaurant and he donated all this money. So if he's convicted, why, aren't they investigating her because you know you know she got taxpayer money from that you know she got in that grift so I feel like there should be another investigation into that now I know that there is a treasury
Starting point is 00:46:24 investigation into it because they received federal funds and there is a DOJ investigation and then there's a separate FBI investigation so at some point it's going to come up but I just feel like there should be an investigation specifically within if her campaign received it that's an FEC violation that needs to be looked at and I don't I don't know about that aspect of it but it's a it's a soft invasion I'm going to tell you the story guys I'm just going to warn you it's this is a bad one I always hate having these stories like this but I think it's important to talk about them but I first read this story I think yesterday and I was waiting to get more information about it because at first they were really they were trying to protect the girl that's involved right so the girl who was involved was they were um i it's i mean it's bad they they this was in
Starting point is 00:47:25 britain and it was in warwickshire and she was out with friends and you know how girls like they just start recording stuff they record themselves and their friends and the parties and they're live streaming or whatever. She was recording a video. And apparently a group of Afghan young men ages 17, they arrived in small boats just months earlier. This girl was 15 years old. This happened in May. She had her phone because she was recording her friends. And at first, it doesn't say this in the pieces that I've read, but it almost seems like in the beginning she thought that they were there as guests of one of her friends, and they didn't really know them. Anyway, they isolated her, dragged her away from her friends, and they raped her in a park.
Starting point is 00:48:16 And she had her phone going the whole time. So that's being used as evidence in the trial. And she said that, I mean, obviously, like, ruined her life. She's just broken. They got these guys. One of them was 10 years, eight months in prison. The other was nine years, 10 months. And they decided to name them, and they're all Afghan nationals.
Starting point is 00:48:41 And one of the lawyers for one of the guys convicted said, quote, I have no doubt that if the general public were exposed to the phone footage, we would have disorder on our hands. The judge said, this is what the judge said, quote, Because these these were Afghan asylum seekers. And no, they're not asylum seekers. They're fighting age men who are taking advantage of the system to colonize a country. The judge said, quote, I accept that you come from a place which has significant cultural
Starting point is 00:49:16 differences from the UK. We're going to come to that in a minute. However, I don't accept that either of you does not understand the concept of consent. He said, you took a child away from her friends in the face of vigorous protests, and she apparently was screaming to somewhere you couldn't be observed in order to commit this offense. And I don't, I don't buy the whole cultural difference thing. The, the whole cultural difference. That's insane. Have you seen these cases where they keep saying, and I've seen a couple of these where they, there was another one, and this was, I think,
Starting point is 00:49:54 also in Britain, where they get into, the guy got a lighter sentence because of cultural differences. If you come from a culture that doesn't realize that taking a woman against her will is bad, then you're incompatible with modern life. And your culture should be raised to the ground. And the only reason it isn't is because it thrives on the indulgence of stupid Westerners who think that they can kill it with kindness without realizing that that's not something that you can, A, rehabilitate, or B, bring into the modern era with kindness. And I keep seeing these stories over and over again. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:50:40 I think the video footage should be made public. But you know, they're never going to do that in Britain. Because in Britain, and we've seen countless instances of this before, in Britain, they work really, really hard to cover up the Rotherham, the Rotherham, sex trafficking. almost 20 years where you had foreign nationals. In this case, they were Pakistani who were in the country operating and they were taking women and selling them into sex slavery. In one town, they had 14 girls in the span of, what, five years?
Starting point is 00:51:16 I mean, either they're missing or they get addicted on drugs and they forced them out as prostitutes. It's unreal. And there were lawmakers that were protecting this because they didn't want. They were more terrified at being called racist than saving these underage girls. It was a huge, it's been a huge, huge scandal in Britain. And it's not just in one town.
Starting point is 00:51:39 It's in several. This is, I mean, they said the phone footage was so appalling that the attorneys were saying there would be public disorder. If the, if the public saw it, then there should be disorder. there should be public disorder if you don't get outraged to the point of disorder over something like this over your young women being violated the heart of your nation being violated in such a horrific way what are you waiting for what are you saving your rage for now i see i see i see i I'm so tired of this stuff. I'm so tired of it.
Starting point is 00:52:27 Just horrifying. Fifteen years old. And the footage apparently caught her trying to fight them off. And they laughed. And they apparently took her phone and basically filmed her own debasement. It's awful. And they're just going to be maybe nine and ten years. They'll probably be released sooner than that.
Starting point is 00:52:52 because they have that refugee privilege. We've got a lot more on the way. That's not even half of the stories that I have from this. It's Islamism. That's what this is. Our partners that help bring you the program, it is the folks over at Superbeats, the turmeric chews made from the people who are behind Superbeats.
Starting point is 00:53:13 Turmeric chews are one of the best. It's one of my favorites. They're clinically, it's a clinically studied complex. Because see, with a lot of turmeric, I mean, you have absorbed. I mean, people just, you know, usually there's absorption issues depending on what type of turmeric that you use. And that's one of the things that the people behind Superbeats wanted to study is not only enhancing the antioxidant properties of turmeric, but they also want to make sure that the body can use it effectively, which is why they have this complex that's designed to solve this issue with a highly absorbable form. It's turmeric and curcumin and it tastes like an orange citrus flavored chew. It's a really easy way to support. your overall wellness. And it's been shown the complex that they use to offer significantly higher absorption than conventional turmeric extract. So it helps your body get more from every serving. And one serving delivers the equivalent antioxidant support of what you typically find in
Starting point is 00:54:07 larger amounts of standard turmeric extract. You can get it right now, $5 off at Sam's Club. But the offer ends on December 29. So you can check out this clinically studied high absorption formula, the turmeric chews. But when the offer's gone, it's gone. So you can get it today at CM's Club, $5 off. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's quick five. So China's trade surplus with the rest of the world is topped a trillion dollars for the first time. And some people are wondering, okay, well, it's not really stopping the flood of manufactured goods coming out of China. Their general administration of customs said that for the first 11 months of the year, exports increased by 5.4%.
Starting point is 00:54:50 Compared with the same period last year, imports fell slightly. That meant they ran a global trade surplus of a little over a trillion dollars that exceeded the 990 billion surplus that was recorded for 2024. So it's about price competitiveness is what it is. And people aren't willing to do that. And at some point, you know, Trump can do so much, Congress can do so much, but it also has to be the buying behavior of the consumers. That's another thing, too.
Starting point is 00:55:16 let's see. Congress is to withhold Pentagon travel funds until it sees the boat strike videos. Okay. I just want to make fun of these people for like five minutes. Just that's all I want. So they said that they're going to withhold a quarter of the travel budget until the Pentagon. They're online.
Starting point is 00:55:38 I mean, I don't know what else you were waiting to see. I don't know. I mean, okay. They said that lawmakers want to look at the follow-up strike. Yes, I love people who have no idea about prosecuting conflicts or really anything in this and they're going to try to be like these armchair quarterbacks on this. Okay. All right. Fine. Show them. I don't care. And let's see. Oh gosh. Now a Scots university is issuing a trigger warning for Harry Potter. Why? Yes. One of the top universities. It's in Glasgow. The University of Glasgow, they're issuing cane a warning.
Starting point is 00:56:16 To undergrads, they said that it's proof of a triggering epidemic. And that Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, it features outdated attitude and abuse. What? Outdated? Take a shaleigh and wrap your tight-fisted head is what hell do. That's so dumb. Come on, I thought y'all were tougher stuff than this. You know, come on.
Starting point is 00:56:36 Braveheart? Just saying. All right, we got a lot more on the way. Stick with us. So I, you know, I've told you guys a million times I carry. I will use lethal force to protect myself or a love. loved one, but, you know, we're also in a position where, you know, not everybody's able to go out and do it. I mean, you might be prevented because of private property restrictions or municipal restrictions that
Starting point is 00:56:59 disarm you. And so you want to make sure that you have a diversified weapons array that you can protect yourself in any situation, no matter what the restrictions are.

We were going to come out with some bloody wood, but then we're like, I'm going to have a certain type of an intro for the terrestrial stations. And I don't want to bust everybody's ear drums out. Like it's an Indian metal band because we were going to talk about Islamism. You know, and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:58:22 hmm, that might be I always, we're always like, what is a good song to come in with something like that? Because you can only do rock the Casbah so many times. You know what I'm saying? So, you know, let's have maybe some like Sikh metal. That works. That does the job. Welcome back, though. You can find more stuff over at the newsletter chapter and verse. lots of good stuff up there. Lorraine's got some good pieces on RFK Jr. and Maha and we got

Oh, golly, you're going to have to man, you all to be thanking your Texas friends and family right now because we are going to be dealing with a blizzard of stupidity. Because of this race, this Senate race. It was already dramatic enough, right?
Starting point is 00:59:09 Because you have John Cornyn and Ken Paxton. And I like Ken Paxton. He's E.G. You know, I get along with him. He's, you know, he's always been real strong on 2A. And there's certain issues where I'm like, if you're strong, I get very Machiavelliant about things. If you're strong on this issue and you're going to rep this issue and you're going to push this issue at a certain level. All right. I can abide that. You know what I mean? And then you got Wesley Hunt, who's not a bad guy either, right? They're in the Republican primary. And then now in the Democrat primary, you've got that, um, he's he looks like john ossef baiter or work like you know how in hollywood do you have bill pullman
Starting point is 00:59:49 and the bills the bill pullman bill paxton right i almost said ben right right they're both damn bill bill bill bill bill paxton and you kind of had the same thing with the democrat party i don't know where they get these dudes is there like a factory somewhere in appalachia where they turn out these like skinny tight jean wearing eunuchs that come out and they're all i mean they're all ridiculous dudes you can tell they don't even have the muscles to hold a handgun you know much less swing a hammer they can't do a thing and they're all the same people the ossives the beta war works and now this talarico guy and so he's running in a primary with now he's running against jasmine crockett who's she's
Starting point is 01:00:37 redistricted out she's changed her district like her seat three times now. And she wants to run for Texas Senate. No way is she going to win. But now, you know, as I told you guys in the newsletter, you need to just be a little careful because you've got to give the Republicans some room to try to shoot themselves in the foot because this is what they do every single time. Now, she's going to lose this race. It's the whole point of somebody like her getting involved in this race. I feel like Tala Rica was going to get steamrolled anyway. They needed to add some agitation, right?
Starting point is 01:01:18 They need to agitate. So who better than Maxine Waters Jr.? You know, who better than eyelashes McWigs? Get her in this race. She'll be throwing some bombs. And then you can have Democrats. It works twofold for Democrats. So they can get involved in this race.
Starting point is 01:01:35 They can either endorse her or not or they can endorse Telarico. There's a strategy here that, At face value, it's very easy to make fun of. But there's something else that's happening. When Wendy Davis ran, and this was back, Kane, like in 2012, 2013, she didn't have a shot in Hades of winning. But that wasn't the point. The point of her running was to register voters and to cede the ground and to build a national mailing list and all of that.
Starting point is 01:02:04 That was the point. That was the entire point of it. And that was the same thing with Bader or Rourke. except I think he didn't get the memo that it really wasn't about him, that there was a lot of other, you know, there were, he was there to do a job. And then he kept running and he never won. This is very similar with Tala RICO and with Crockett as well. Tala RICO is young enough to where I think no matter what he does, he can probably come back from some sort of, you know, district race maybe. The problem is Democrats have not won a statewide race in a while here.
Starting point is 01:02:39 and there's a reason they haven't won because they're they're running some pretty crazy candidates. It's the type of candidate that they're running. It's been 1994 since Democrats. That's the last time a Democrat won a statewide office in Texas was 1994. So it's not going to happen this time either because this Senate race has been reliably read for a very long time. And even the independents, which determine these races and the margins, they're not going to be bought in on a Jasmine Crockett or James Tullerigo. They weren't even bought in on a Colin Alred. Colin Alred, who was a bad, goofy candidate, was still better than Crockett. If you look at what happened in some of these other, like in Nashville, for instance, that Afton Bine or whatever her ditsy name was, Ben, whatever, I don't know, Afton with her why.
Starting point is 01:03:35 they the reason that she was so bad is because the reason why she lost so badly is because she was a bad candidate. Democrats have this thing. They pick these dumb, dippy candidates. Now, not to say that Republicans haven't before either. We have. And I've talked about it extensively. But when Democrats pick a bad candidate, they really deuce the bed, man. They really doze the bed. I don't know how else to say it. I mean, they really, so there's a strategy here. They got, Colin All right got out of the race. So they're wanting to preserve him that you can't have two eunuchs battle it out and expect to get the agitation that you need to make headlines so they got to throw it they got to bring in a bomb thrower so jasmine crockett really does not have a road she's redistricted out although technically
Starting point is 01:04:20 she could still run in that race but she's going to be challenged by someone who actually could beat her so that's why she's not going back in that race so in texas state laws you don't have to live in the district to run in that district you just have to live in the state so her district her no longer is in the district as it is redrawn. So she could stay there, but there's a Democrat that's going to be running in that seat. And she's not going to be able to, honestly, she won't be able to beat them because they're not as nuts as she is, right? They're at least not as loud about being as nuts as she is. So this is, she's being, she's going in this race, not with the goal of winning, but with the goal of creating problems, building a national mailing list. And also,
Starting point is 01:05:01 what does her presence in this race against a eunuch do? James Thomas, Colorado by himself looks ridiculous. Does he not? He does. He looks ridiculous. But you already saw them show their cards when they came out with their ads yesterday. So her ad, and I'm not going to play it because they can charge me or because I'll charge them. They get, if they want that free ad time, they got to pay for it. But she came out with an ad and it was just her and it was Trump talking about her, playing over her. She was like in this Olin Mills photo studio. And then she very slowly turned around as Trump is talking about her and she looks at the camera. And that's, that's the ad. In the meantime, Tala Rico comes out and he's like, well, I'm not going to say anything bad about Jasmine Crockett and I'm going to, you know, et cetera, run a nice race. So he immediately is staking his claim as the nice, sane Democrat. And she's immediately going out there like, I'm going to be, this whole race is not about serving voters. It's going to be about fighting Trump. So that right there tells you what the strategy is. She's there to make Tala Rico look palatable. She's there to build a national mailing list. She's there to massage the desires.
Starting point is 01:06:04 of the Marxists in the party, the bomb throwers in the party, and she's there to be the crazy that Tala Rico doesn't have to be. So they're going to tell him, you just have to seem focused on the voters and focused on the issues. It's bad cop, good cop. That's this whole strategy. And then she can go out there, she'll do, even though she's facing off against him in the primary,
Starting point is 01:06:27 she can go out there and agitate. And I don't know if she realizes this is a strategy. She's not the sharpest tool in the shed, but a tool nonetheless, not the sharpest. I don't know if she realizes that's the strategy, but that's what they're doing. They are using her to make him seem saner. So instead of making him seem sane by his policies and his positions, they're not going to change that crazy Marxist garbage. They're just going to try to compare him to her and be like, well, you could have this. They need her to agitate to turn out the vote.
Starting point is 01:07:00 He does not have the charisma to do it himself. self. So she's going to be the person doing it. And they'll help him take that primary and then they'll try to run a more formidable serious race and the general. That's what this is all designed to do. So that's their strategy with us. And the fact that Allred got out was a huge sign to me about that. They're like, oh, we're going to pull you out. We're going to save you for another time. We're going to put you back on the bench. And we're just going to put her out there. I mean, that's it. It's the Stacey Abrams, the Beta Aurora, the Wendy Davis strategy, running a ridiculous Democrat in an unwinnable race to build and register Democrat voters for future attempts. That's this whole thing.
Starting point is 01:07:39 It's like a political war of attrition. That's the whole point. And Tala Rico and all, they're both ridiculous. Tala Rico's ridiculous, but he's more palatable to a lot of Texas Democrats than Crockett is. So that's the play. Now, she also wants to run because she wants to raise the money. Don't forget, she's got a $3,000 lien on her luxury Dallas condo and she refuses to pay it off. Girlfriend needs a money.
Starting point is 01:08:05 She needs to keep living in luxury. She needs to keep going to get her nails done and her eyelashes did and her hair done. She's got to be kept in luxury. So she needs gullible donors to continue funding her. So that's it. When you run for these recess, so long as you're using the donor money to pay off campaign-related expenses, you're in the clear. That's what all this is about. This is the whole move.
Starting point is 01:08:32 So she's, and she needs the cash. And the Democrats have nothing to lose that they get an embacker. She gets the fame that she wants. She gets the cash to keep her in luxury. And then we're inundated with these asinine campaign stunts. Cut seven. She thinks they've been talking about turning Texas blue. So in Colorado, and they turned Colorado blue in two election cycles.
Starting point is 01:08:54 Colorado had been 63 straight years of Republican governance, Republican administration, Republican majority. Two election cycles. They had operatives turn it blue. They flooded it with Californians. They were able to turn it blue. They even wrote a book about it called the blueprint. Same people came to Texas to try to recreate it here. Texas is a lot bigger and weirder. Texas, Georgia, and Florida are very weird about their elections, like, and their politicians. So they, they are protective of their, they'll go after their own candidates, their own party candidates, but if you do it, they're going to shiv you. You're going to get it. But they tried to turn Texas blue already. They had, what is it, Texas, Progressive Progress,
Starting point is 01:09:37 Texas, I can't remember. So many different organizations that have tried this, and they haven't been successful. This was supposed to have been done 10 years ago, and it hasn't been. This is cut seven, her talking about that. Listen, Texas turns blue. It won't be because of any one candidate, but because of each and every one of you doing your part. Turning Texas Blue is what I want to talk to y'all about today. Y'all. Now, there are those that say, ain't no way we didn't try it 50 kinds of ways. Why does she talk?
Starting point is 01:10:11 Let me be clear. Y'all ain't never. So she came down here to run for office and do all of that. I came down here in 2013, right around the time that she did, except I have no desire to run for political office. Like I said, I don't want to represent anyone who would dare vote for me. No offense. But she wanted, because Missouri and Ken, you can attest to this, especially in St. Louis where she was grown up, that area is unlocked. That's generationally Democrat, and you better be born into certain Democrat circles and certain Democrat families if you want to have a chance at a seat up there. It's not going to happen. So she had to go someplace where she could win. So, yeah, it's why I called her a carpetbagger. Some people didn't understand what the hell that was. I'm like, that's if you're coming down a rep, you're trying to find more hospitable political ground so you can make. bank and you can have power. That's what that is about. And it was something that they talked about
Starting point is 01:11:00 of Northerners post-Civil War. So she's, it's not going to turn blue. Now, again, I'm not saying that Republicans in Texas can't shoot themselves in the foot, but so far they haven't happened. I wanted to play 14 because this, this is how she started, God help us all. This is how she started her campaign announcement, guys. Yeah. Let's get into her. Okay, it's a drum machine Never scared if she ain't never been Who is willing to go toe to toe against the president I can't wrap my head around someone who votes
Starting point is 01:11:35 Republicans You're going to check his notes on your crew Trump and bait in his own country with our army What a joke Well drum machine That is so cringe I'm dying Kane We all died
Starting point is 01:11:47 We all died we just had to get revived I just did man I had to get That's bad didn't even they didn't even give the man use of the prompters he had to keep checking his notes oh my gosh as we head into the holidays it's not just about gifts it's also about gratitude reflection and protecting what really matters your family your future and your financial security so colin plume at noble gold investments has explained how quickly things have changed

So a Florida woman faces a felony charge because she threw chicken during a fight. A woman whose name was, or whose name is Jamicia, Jamisha Wallace, she was arrested after allegedly throwing chicken at another woman's face during an argument according to Broward's sheriff's deputies. Why are you doing the chicken like that? She was the primary aggressor. They got into a fight. It escalated when she retrieved a kitchen
Starting point is 01:13:42 knife from her upstairs apartment, appointed it at the victim. And yeah, so the chicken started flying. So she was arrested. What kind of chicken, though? Nobody talks about the important stuff. Was it KFC? Was it Popeyes? And then if it was, like, was it extra crispy? I just need to know these things because I want to know how mad I'm going to get.
Starting point is 01:14:00 Like, how are you doing decent food like that? A woman was charged after deputies found anti-anxiety meds in her prison wallet. No. Yeah. Yeah. In Orlando. She had a DUI. And then she tried to hide it as she was getting pulled over.
Starting point is 01:14:23 Why are you doing that? They found a bunch. I can't even pronounce it. Alf preslum. Sounds right. Yeah. In a bag there. And so she, and apparently was not a prescription in her name.
Starting point is 01:14:39 So she got in trouble for that. Also, just stop being gross for five seconds. Don't hide your stuff. They'll find it. Stick with us. Third hour coming up. All of the conversations that I had during my time both in Turkey and in Lebanon, including with many Muslims, were precisely concentrated on the topic of peace and respect for people of different religions.
Starting point is 01:15:10 I know that, as a matter of fact, that has not always been the case. I know that in Europe there are many times fears that are present, but oftentimes generated by people who are against immigration and trying to keep out people who may be from another country, another religion, another race. And in that sense, I would say that we all need to work together. One of the values of this trip is precisely to raise the world's attention to the possibility that dialogue and friendship between Muslims and Christians is possible. I think one of the great lessons that Lebanon can teach to the world
Starting point is 01:15:55 is precisely showing a land where Islam, Christianity are both present and are respected and that there is a possibility to live together, to be friends. Well, you know, that's funny because there's some differences in Lebanon. You know, it's the Druze that have been kicking the snot out of the Islamists up there. Bedouins that have been kicking the snot. The Golan Druze have been just, I mean, their enlistments, like at 85% in terms of military.
Starting point is 01:16:24 Arab Christian enlistment has tripled in the last year. A lot of it's been regional conflict. A lot of it's been as a result of October 7th. Drew's, Bedouins, and Arab Christians. So, yeah, you know what? I'm going to tell you something. You're not going to sit here and
Starting point is 01:16:36 nice your way out of getting raped, like that one 15-year-old girl that was dragged away by three Afghan nationals. You're not going to nice your way out of getting raped. You're not going to nice your way. way out of having members of Somali Diaspora in Minnesota swindle you out of a billion dollars of taxpayer funds. That's not going to happen. This idea that it's because Christians haven't been nice enough is garbage. That's that's not theology. That's Marxist clap trap. It's exactly what
Starting point is 01:17:04 that is. Good heavens. I mean, you know, we used to have their crusades and now we got this. Seriously? We went from the crusades to, it's got to be nice. just got to be friends with them you know you can just nice the terrorism away you can nice the sharia away wow oh weak weak welcome back to the program that was a pope by the way uh Dana lash with you we're at the top of this third hour and uh Islamism it's a real thing there's been a fundamental shift that's been taking place across a lot of the Israeli Arab community and a lot of the community that's been in Lebanon, by the way, that's up in that northern area where you've had Christian Arabs, Druze, others that have been pushing back on Hesbila and a lot of the Islamists
Starting point is 01:17:57 up there. So that's something I feel like, you know, there's a reason why. I mean, you're using Lebanon. By the way, Lebanon then drove away all of the Gazans out because what happens after they started taking Gazans in? Yeah, there was civil war and attacks. By the way, the other big part of this too I think it's demonic when you sit here and act like people are against immigration people aren't against
Starting point is 01:18:21 controlled legal immigration I don't know anybody who is against controlled legal immigration I don't I mean that's like saying that the Vatican hates visitors the Vatican doesn't hate visitors the Vatican likes controlled legal visiting I've been to the Vatican
Starting point is 01:18:37 it likes controlled legal visiting I went there I don't know how many security checkpoints. And that's fine because I'm going into their property. Okay. But don't sit here and act like that you have it so it's okay. And if other sovereign nations require it, because remember the Vatican, that is a sovereign entity. It's a city state.
Starting point is 01:18:58 Don't act like other sovereign entities that have the exact same things are bad for having the exact same things you have. And then act like it's somehow more. sinful. It's not against immigration. It is against unfettered, unlimited, illegal immigration. People you don't know. People who have no documentation. They can't even prove that they're not felons. They can't prove that they're not murderers. They can't prove that they're not predators. That's the objection.
Starting point is 01:19:41 And it is incredibly disingenuous, especially in the name of Christ, to try to smear people of the kingdom as being against immigration when they are simply against anything that is not controlled legal immigration. And then you wonder why people have been running away from the church, probably because of those really bad examples that you're giving coming from the top of the chain why did he try to sound like english wasn't his first language either when he was talking there that was weird i'm like you're like it's like billy joe from green day when he pretended to be british when they came out with their first with their first album long view remember or that
Starting point is 01:20:28 long view was their song self-titled and that was back in what 94 95 and they acted like they were british it was the same thing like why are you acting like this is this is weird to me maybe too much into it, but, you know, it is, it is what it is. Now, Islamism is a real thing, a very real thing. And this, it was just disappointing to see that, to hear that from the Pope. I don't know, a lot of my Catholic friends are very upset over it. A child bride was executed in Iran after killing her much older husband following years of domestic violence. Sad. She's 24 now, but she was married to this guy when she was, oh, I don't even know if she was, she had actually started, oh, she was 12. She was married after her cousin at the age of 12, had her first child at age 13. He used to beat her into oblivion, beat their five-year-old son into oblivion. She found a cousin for help, a fight broke out. This is like every day in Sharia. It really is. I mean, in Irving, Texas, remember, there were two beautiful girls who were murdered. by their father just some years ago because they were getting too westernized.
Starting point is 01:21:41 So he thought the great shame was his daughter's wearing just Western clothes and, you know, a little makeup, but not killing them because he didn't like the fact that they were, I mean, good heavens, they were becoming less controlled under Sharia. It's pretty amazing. They had no, she had no access to protections. And this is in Iran that practices a lot of this stuff. But this is also, we're seeing it, like I said, Irving, Texas, Minnesota. There have been instances of female genital mutilation. I mean, I don't want people's
Starting point is 01:22:14 eyes to gloss over because they hear it so much. I want them to be nervous because they hear it so much that there's something serious there. There was a Somali national charge with raping a woman outside of a Nashville church. Have you guys heard about this? This is insane. She sustained injuries and didn't make it out of the hospital. This is crazy, absolute madness. I mean, and then you hear these cases. Like there was a woman who was attacked, sexually assaulted in the UK. And the judge in that case said, well, we're going to give this guy a lighter sentence because he's new here. He was an Afghan refugee. He's new here. He doesn't understand the culture. So we're making allowances for culture for this because I just think that's incompatible with the United States. States of America. This is just insane stuff. You know, care blocked me?
Starting point is 01:23:13 So Ron DeSantis came out yesterday. By the way, why is Ron DeSantis doing this and our DOJ not? Where the hell is Pam Bondi? He declared Care, the Council of American Islamic Relations, a foreign terrorist organization. Don't forget, they're an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation. And he did this with executive order. And he said, I look forward to discovery, especially the care finances, should be illuminating. Care was going off yesterday.
Starting point is 01:23:45 They blocked me. Care. Unindicted co-conspirators in the whole, they're terrorists. They're absolute terrorists. And so DeSanta said that care and the Muslim Brotherhood are foreign terrorist organizations, and they are. It's not an advocacy group. They're terrorists. Greg Abbott has designated Muslim Brotherhood and CARE as terrorist organizations.
Starting point is 01:24:11 Why are Abbott and DeSantis doing this? And Pam Bondi is not. Where's our DOJ? Their advocacy arm, Washington Free Beacon has a story on this. CARE's political arm has been operating without any legal authority across the United States. Free Beacon reports that a probe from two watchdog groups says the group, says the group may be guilty of wire fraud, deceptive solicitation, and making false statements to the IRS. Hmm.
Starting point is 01:24:44 That's their care action, because you have care. That's the Council of American Islamic Relations. You have care, and then you have care action, which is like their little advocacy arm. They, in 22 states where they've been raising money and conducting political activity, apparently, they have been without the licenses, licenses the registration or legal authority. So they're evading state and federal regulations in what is looking more and more like a very illicit fundraising scheme. All the people that talk about APEC don't say a damn thing about care.
Starting point is 01:25:15 I think it's by design. I'm going to go one step further. I think people are getting paid by these organizations to go after. Honestly, if APEC was so powerful, they suck. They couldn't even get hostages out at Gaza. If APEC was so bad. If APEC was so bad, why are we having all these college campuses? Like I have this story right here where you've got Jewish students at a number of different campuses.
Starting point is 01:25:37 They've done studies and these are third-party entities where they don't even feel safe on college campuses anymore and they feel as though they can't even actually like be Jewish on college campuses. Nearly 40% of Jewish college students have had to hide their identities on campus. 62% said they've been directly blamed. We have friends of our family who have students, Jewish students at college campuses, and I have heard this verbatim from their students' mouths. So A-PAC is so powerful, but they can't do, give me a break. They spend a pittance.
Starting point is 01:26:10 Go look at what CARE's been doing. Go look at what the Muslim Brotherhood's been doing. Go look at what Somali Diaspora has been doing. Go and look at how much Cutter's been spending at these universities. You know, if you're really America first and you're not bitching and moaning about that, you're a sell-out Muslim goat-loving, just absolute fake. You're a fake terrorist. what you are. You're an Islamist terrorist. If you're not screaming about this as much as everything
Starting point is 01:26:35 else, I'm so tired of this stuff. And it's always, they never have anything to say about this. Anytime I say anything about Qatar on social media, I have all these little fat-faced bots in my mentions. So I've been doing the whole Trump response to them with the whole as like no one. And then this person shows up in my timeline screaming about Israel. It's because it's about the Islamist invasion of the United States. It's a fact. that is a fact and these people are being willful stooges and aiding and abetting it no this political arm I would love to know how much money they're spending in each state these Islamists how much money they're spending in each state say now you got Texas and Florida where's the DOJ
Starting point is 01:27:19 where is Pam Bondi where is she at in all of this why are we not doing this at the oh we're doing some but you know the Muslim Brotherhood, the Qatari chapter is exempt from the one that's coming down out from the White House, from that EO, does everybody know that, that edict? The Qatari chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood's exempt. Why is that? That's a fact. I wrote about it over at Subsec if you'd like links to receipts. Why is that? I got a lot of questions. You have care and partnerships between care and K through 12 schools. Let's not forget, care is leader here. Nihada-Wad said he was quote, happy to see the attack on October 7th, which took Americans in as well.
Starting point is 01:28:06 It is a serious thing. This is a very serious thing. And it's interesting. No one wants to talk about it. There was a story that came out relatedly to this. I know we've got to get moving. So Nick Fuentes, you know that the New York Post has a study. The Network Contagion Research Institute showed that the majority of his amplification is foreign.
Starting point is 01:28:28 It comes from Pakistan and Nigeria. So to answer the question, can one cuck oneself? According to this story, yes. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. There's only two animals that actually do kind of scare me. One of them, I won't, I don't, I'm actually, I haven't never hunted it, and I never will. And that's a hawk, feral hog.
Starting point is 01:28:53 Farrow hogs scare the bejibers out of me. The other one? Canaan's geese? Geese are terrifying. 72-year-old woman was attacked by geese at a local park. She broke her pelvis. She had an internal bleeding. She was stuck on the ground.
Starting point is 01:29:12 They wouldn't let her up. The geese were all over. It was crazy. How big were these damn geese? She's fizzing, is in Texas. She's feeding ducks at Lake City Lake Park. And all of a sudden, the geese got mad. She's feeding little ducks.
Starting point is 01:29:26 And then the geese came up and started to attack. in the food and she fell hard. She could get up and she had all these fractures and she had to go to the hospital and oh my gosh, it was crazy. She's just a little woman. And now she's got physical therapy all because these geese. And the geese are territorial. They are mean, man, they are mean. Right? Souson Park, Kane. That's where the meanest geese in the world live. Susan Park in Missouri. Meanest geese on God's Green Earth live there. I'm not kidding you. I have more of it. I'm just really into the geese story. I robbed you a little bit. segment but we have kurt schlichter who's coming up next stick with us not able to catch all three

I feel like she didn't. We are going to be assaulted audibly and visually in this Senate race coming up by this
Starting point is 01:31:20 woman. Assaulted, Texans. The rest of America should be praying for us right now. And I feel so bad because my next guest, he's a long-time friend. He's got a great new book out today. You know, it's the latest in the Kelly Turnbull, the People's Republic series, Panama Red. There's the cover. It is actually really awesome looking cover. He's just nine for nine with these covers now.
Starting point is 01:31:43 But he's, you know, he just moved to, he's moving to Texas from California. Right in the middle of this tornado. Kurt Schlichter joins us. He's a columnist, a best-selling author. He's a retired full bird. I mean, I don't know. I know that's not the right way to say it, but I love saying it that way.
Starting point is 01:32:02 And he joins us now, author of Panama Red. Congrats on the book, and I'm going to get to that with you. But I just got to say, you now moving to Texas from California, and then you got this hot mess that you didn't know was coming. And now you're going to be one of those Texans that's going to have to deal with the Jasmine Crockett Senate campaign. Kurt, how are you feeling about that? Well, I'm already dealing with the bright California. Son that I somehow can't fix on my speaker. But yeah, it's, look, I got to say, the guy who's happiest about this is probably
Starting point is 01:32:38 Kenny Paxton, who's one of the ones running for Senate right now against John Cornyn, the gun control guy, and Wesley Hunt, who's, you know, seems like a pretty good guy. They're going to annihilate her. She's going to be destroyed. There's literally not a single Texan west of the Pecos who's going to vote for this human minstrel show. She's ridiculous. Yeah. And the best part of it, Dana, is she went to, like, private school.
Starting point is 01:33:09 So she's like Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady after six months with Rex Harrison in real life. And then she decides to appeal to her voters. She has to come on, like, the sassy friend in every 2007 Kate Hudson Romantic. comedy. Yes, it's pygmalion in reverse. Exactly. And it's just ridiculous. Resist on the acrylic nails. Please stop.
Starting point is 01:33:36 You're allowed to have dignity. It's okay. And frankly, she seemed like an intelligent, well-spoken individual. I'd actually be, I wouldn't be that worried, but I'd be like, okay, well, this is the person who could put
Starting point is 01:33:53 up a plausible campaign. she didn't come on like a caricature. Yeah. I mean, she's ridiculous. We already had Maxine Waters, and it feels like she thinks that it's necessary to, to duplicate that in the party in Texas specifically. I don't know what she's thinking,
Starting point is 01:34:12 except maybe I'd be Stacey Abrams, albeit thinner, maybe I'll get a gig on Star Trek, and a lot of money from the next demonstration. Democrat administration, but I don't won't actually win anything. Yeah. I mean, it's pretty clear while she's doing this. She's doing this to build up a power base despite the fact that she has absolutely no hope of winning.
Starting point is 01:34:39 Now, I'm glad. I like when Democrats nominate losers. Yeah. And she's the other guy that's in the primary, I don't know if you're familiar with him. I'm kind of like sort of familiarized my James Tolariko. He's like this eunuch, the soft-spoken eunuch, but he's still a Marxist. He's just as crazy as she is, but he's, like, quiet about it. Well, and what a theologian.
Starting point is 01:35:00 Did you know God is non-binary? It's like, no, I didn't know that. I didn't know. Get away from me because I don't want the light. When the lightning bolt strikes, I want to be far away there, Talariko. That's right. You know, he's, imagine, imagine John Lithgow and footloose, right? The preacher who said, you kids can't rock.
Starting point is 01:35:24 I'm not going to let you dance and make him a hundred times more irritating and then cross him with that horrible gargoyle-looking Welch woman. Oh my gosh. Yes. Yeah, that's, yeah, that, yeah, the interior designer
Starting point is 01:35:40 who is the one of the housewife whatever, yeah. We're talking with our friend Kirch Lictor, his book, Panama Red. It's the latest People's Republic series out of that series. And this, you're going from Dublin, Dublin, to Panama City.
Starting point is 01:35:55 And I love how you go from Deep Red, Texas to Mogadishu and Minnesota, which we've been talking a lot about Minnesota because of all the Somali diaspora that are defrauding everyone and turning it into Little Mogadishu. I, you know, I, of course, obviously wrote this before all that started, though I'm familiar with Minneapolis, that, you know, Minneapolis used to provide amazing post-punk rock bands like the replacements and Hoosker Do. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 01:36:23 my two favorite bands. Clash is in their, too, but they're English. And now it's this, it's like Black Hawk down without the civilization. Every time you go in there, it's like, you know, hey, Gordy's gone. Good luck. No, thanks.
Starting point is 01:36:44 Yeah. I'm kind of, I'm sort of shocked that it is as, because it's not just in even in Minnesota. I mean, we're looking at Maine with all of this. you know, fraud and, you know, Illinois, speaking of people like Jasmine and Crockett, I am wondering why there isn't an investigation into how much of this taxpayer funding
Starting point is 01:37:04 that she likely received as well because she was buddies with these dudes that were convicted from this stuff. Like this one guy who did that Feed Our Future scam, he claimed to feed 4,000 kids. Kurt, he didn't feed no 4,000 kids, but he was able to bilk the state out of like $240 million. I feel like if I was an un-American,
Starting point is 01:37:23 Marxist piece of excrement, that I really missed an opportunity to make fat bank in a hundred, tune of hundreds of millions of dollars like this. Well, you'd also have to marry your brother. Oh, yeah. There's also that unfortunate aspect. Yikes. Oh, that's, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:40 Thank you. Diversity is our strength. Not that kind of diversity. Yeah, not that. Well, that's actually opposite of diversity. I mean, they're keeping it real close key. Yeah. Consanguinity.
Starting point is 01:37:53 Oh, my gosh. Tell me about your book because this is the ninth out of the series. It's available now. You can get it now. It's the latest in the series. And you go, I mean, it gets into, like you said, you wrote this before all of this news came out from Minnesota. You're turning into sort of like the Simpsons where you're predicting things in your books.
Starting point is 01:38:19 So I just feel like we got to watch you. Yeah. Tell me about this latest series. And I mean, isn't it weird when you write it? And then you're like, oh, my gosh, now it's in the news. It's been like this for 10 years since the first one, People's Republic, came out in 2016. Now, of course, it was Andrew, Andrew Breitbart, who inspired me because he always used to say, we got to stop bitching about our lack of pop culture presence and do something about it.
Starting point is 01:38:46 So I decided I was going to write a book that I would want to read. Yeah. And that was People's Republic. money, violent, lots of guns, lots of political insights, just entertaining. And I have sold hundreds of thousands of these things, Dana. It's remarkable. You get people out there line, I had a ton of pre-sales on this thing. And of course, now it's selling a paperback, e-book, hardcover, whatever you want.
Starting point is 01:39:15 And it is, you know, the concede is America has split in two. There's a red America and a blue America. Red America centered in Texas, Blue America's, all the places you would think would be blue. And then Kelly Turnbull, the hero, goes into Blue America with his Wilson Combat, CQV-45, and has adventures, which often involves shooting and snark. And every one of them's different. It's not, you know, the kind of cookie cutter stuff you get from a lot of bestsellers these days. Right. It's not derivative.
Starting point is 01:39:47 It's predictable. It's not predictable either. I haven't gotten to nine, but I've read the first. three, but I've not gotten past, I, I'm, I'm slow. I like, I got a, I got a list that everybody, all my friends write books and I got to read them. So I got to catch up. Oh, I know. I got the, I got the friend book pile. Yes. Which is, uh, which is always tough. Always writing. Let me ask you this. Are you going to do, have you ever thought about like doing a scripted series? Or am I over my skis or is this something you can or can't talk about?
Starting point is 01:40:13 Funny you should say that. I have a, um, a town hall column coming out tomorrow on the problem with conservative culture and how we need to break into Hollywood. We've got the, look, the books are done because now Amazon provides a mechanism where we don't have to go through the gatekeepers. Now I publish traditional books, I've got an agent and all that. I also do these in partnership with Amazon so I could skip all that. So we can get stuff out there as far as books. But for movies and TV, you need, A, a lot of money, and B, you need distribution.
Starting point is 01:40:49 And too many of our billionaires, Dana, would rather give money to the forum for family, flags, freedom, and forums. Oh, and Eagles, rather than go out there and do something that's actually going to move the needle. And look, if you go on Netflix right now, they've got a show called Queen of Coal. We talked about that. Yeah, a transsexual who wants to go like, you know, dig the carbon. And, you know, those mean Christians are keeping her from. you know, toiling in the salt mines. And I don't want to watch that.
Starting point is 01:41:25 I want to watch something that's pro-American and cool and fun and not going to wag its little finger in my face going, you should be more respectful of indigenous, differently-abled points of view and voices. It's like, shut off. Give me a gun. Because it seems. It seems so posturing so many, yeah, I'm not, and I'm not watching the Queen of Carbon about the tranny going in coal mining,
Starting point is 01:41:55 not doing the glee in space that they're calling Star Trek, the new Star Trek. Oh, I mean, they've even ruined that. Oh, my God, they look worse than, it's like a convention of Unitarian Ministers without the sexy. Oh, my gosh, yes. Yes, it's so bad. And that's another thing about Hollywood. remember in the 80s and 90s when movie stars were attractive? Yeah. And they weren't trying to amish humorize
Starting point is 01:42:26 everything. Yeah. And I mean, you look at something. Like, I don't know what it is about our ruling elite. They put up this Jennifer Welch person and she's hideous. I mean, she's human, whatever the opposite of Viagra is. I can't say on air what I think of her because it would be bad. Oh, I can imagine. We know each other. So you know immediately. Yeah. Oh, oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 01:42:50 Let me ask you this. Kelly Turnbull, when I read these books, I start thinking of casting. If you did a scripted series, who would be your, like, who would be your dream cast? Matthew Marston. Ooh. Yeah, right? And not just because he's a conservative guy, not because we pout around a little and tip to beer. He actually can act.
Starting point is 01:43:12 He's a good looking guy who's the right size. and he has the chops if you've seen Black Hawk down or you've seen some of the other movies he's been in. I think Nick Searcy as his spy master would be great. Now, of course, you and Chris would have to show up because in a previous book, you guys had a crocodile-related cameo. Yeah, it was so awesome. It was so awesome.
Starting point is 01:43:40 That has to stay in. It has to stay in. Oh, it definitely does. Our friend Larry O'Connor makes a show. tunes related appearances. That's appropriate. I feel that one.
Starting point is 01:43:50 Isn't it? Tracks. And there, of course, is my, I think my favorite part is Dennis Miller starring in a red TV series, the Dennis Miller Mysteries.
Starting point is 01:44:01 That's great. And he can make jokes that go over all those blue people's heads. Well, my favorite is when he says to his detective chief, hey, you've given me a suspect list shorter than the track listing
Starting point is 01:44:14 on greatest hits of Starland vocal band. That is a B-side for sure. I just, I think this is, it's fun and it's also moored in enough reality to make it really, to make it real and accessible, but it's
Starting point is 01:44:32 fun at the same time. And that's what sets this. Conservatism, what we're about is not grim misery struggle sessions about how, you know, our grand, great-grandparents were racist and we bear the stain.
Starting point is 01:44:48 Shut up. Yeah. We're Americans. We're happy people. We're smiling. We're not grim. We're cheerful because we're in the best place on earth, even if we're in the process of wrecking it. That's right. And these books are like that. I have a very clear rule, Dana, when I'm writing fiction, which is everything, no bad
Starting point is 01:45:11 parts, all good parts. It's like the London Calling album. No crappy tracks. That's right. There's no four. It's either action or interesting insight or it's funny. And if it isn't, it's gone. That's right. And this book is all good.
Starting point is 01:45:28 The series is good. That's a good series. The book is Panama Red. It is the ninth book in the series and it's out now. There's that sweet cover. You can get it on Amazon. Sean Sauter. Of course.
Starting point is 01:45:41 Sean does great work. Salty Hall of he does great work. All of his book covers are fantastic. Get it out. It's out now, out today.

Starting point is 01:46:50 Today, and stupidity came. I don't think we have time to play this, but Randy Weingarten, who is, of course, in charge of the teacher's union, was blaming Trump for the shutdown of schools. Now, when did the shuts?
