Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to the program. Dana Lash with you, the chats at Rumble. Now, just a quick program, you know, we were expected to be at Shot Show this week. You guys know that. That's what we had planned. Shot Show happens, you know, every year it's the big NSSF event here. And we, by we, I mean me, somebody got a serious, crazy ear infection and was grounded, not able to fly. Had crazy vertigo, tenonitis, everything.
Starting point is 00:00:28 so only literally now can sit upright to be back on air today. So if I seem a little bit out of it, I still kind of am, but we're getting back into it. So if you see the wire, I can't even wear my in ear yet in my right ear, which was the most affected. So I'm telling you all this now just to just get ahead of the mail or the questions that are being asked. So that's just an FYI.
Starting point is 00:00:51 So the latest, let me pull this, because we've got a lot to dump into. It's not just what's happening at Davos. It's also we've got the Diego Garcia carrier, which all dovetails into this whole issue of the relationship with the United States and that of Europe. And NATO, particularly. Now, if you're a subscriber over to, over at chapter and verse, which is my substack, there had a few pieces that came out. When I could sit upright, I was writing. But I had a piece that came out yesterday.
Starting point is 00:01:27 And it was yesterday? Yeah, yesterday evening. I don't even remember, Kane. I don't know. You know what? Today's my last day for steroids. So we'll see how far this gets us. So I had a piece out because there's a lot of noise about the issue of Greenland, which is taking center stage.
Starting point is 00:01:45 And it's not even so much the issue of it's really about the health of the national security of the United States. And that's what it comes down to. And it also details the responsibility that Europe has and really should be keeping in, as it relates to the health of that alliance, for the lack of a better way to put it. So as you guys know, we've been talking about Greenland a lot. And I think some people, you know, I kind of get the sense that in the beginning, some people maybe perhaps thought that POTUS was joking. Can you sort of, to be fair, we were like, was he really being serious? Because this has been a year. Yeah, he says some of those verbose things
Starting point is 00:02:27 because there's other things he wants to get done. And maybe it's not direct in his comments, but, you know, we're used to seeing that. I think a few things expedited that and elevated it from just a minor discussion to now it's an action item. One of those things POTUS was talking about, actually he came up and said it, during one of his, I think he was talking, it was an aside to one of the press because he was saying,
Starting point is 00:02:57 look, if we had not acted as quickly and in the manner that we did as it relates to Iran with the strikes, it was two months and they were going to be fully realized as nuclear capable, which is kind of, it's a terrifying thought considering. I know it would make, you know, Tucker Carlson happy, but, you know, that's a scary thing. So the issue with Iran and then also Venezuela, I think, elevated this stuff and expedited a lot of the discussion into action, or at least into the planning stages of it. So Trump was talking about this at Davos. This was just a little earlier. This is cut five. Listen to this. We want Europe to be strong. Ultimately, these are matters of national security and perhaps no current issue makes the situation more clear than what's
Starting point is 00:03:52 currently going on with Greenland, would you like me to say a few words of Greenland? Everyone laughed. I was going to leave it out of the speech, but I thought, I think I would have been reviewed very negatively. There's no way he was going to say. Now, he says he's not going to use force to take Greenland. He says, look, despite the fact that Danish leaders have been, I think, unnecessarily adding fuel to the fire, they're like, oh, my gosh, she's going to send boots on the ground.
Starting point is 00:04:21 And I mean, come on. This is so just, it's stupid. I mean, let's look at the previous acquisitions made by the United States. Or there was the U.S. Virgin Islands, whether it was the Louisiana purchase, whether it was the, what would have been traditionally called Seward's Folly with Alaska. I mean, he's talking about that heritage of acquisition. He says this and cut six. Listen. We never asked for anything. And we never got anything. We probably won't get anything unless I decide to use. excessive strength and force where we would be frankly unstoppable but I won't do that okay now everyone's saying oh good that's probably the biggest statement I made because people thought I would use force I don't have to use force I don't want to use force I won't use force all the United States is asking for is a place called Greenland where we already had it as a trustee but respect returned it back to Denmark not long ago after we defeated the Germans, the Japanese,
Starting point is 00:05:27 the Italians and others in World War II. We gave it back to them. We were a powerful force then, but we are a much more powerful force now. After I rebuilt the military in my first term and continued to do so today, we have... Now, this has to do with a national security issue. And, you know, if you think back to, going back to what, I think it was 1917. and looking at the acquisition of the U.S. Virgin Islands. I mean, it was very similar. You know, we're like, okay, well, we can either do this the easy way or the easy way.
Starting point is 00:05:59 Pick, because it's an issue of national security. I wrote about this because, you know, for our entire lives, for my entire life, probably for yours as well, we have heard nothing but the importance of NATO. I get it, right? I mean, NATO served a purpose during one point. It really did. I'm not saying that it still doesn't, but there are genuine, legitimate, questions that have been raised because of Europe's behavior, their leadership and the direction
Starting point is 00:06:26 of their individual sovereign nations. And we've heard about the importance of NATO, our whole lives. We've heard about the importance of the NATO alliance, the health of that alliance for our whole lives. But now what we've seen is that Russian power has been slipping into twilight. This is an arguable. I know that there are some old, crusty type of neocons that want to pretend that Russia is still the biggest threat in the world, but it's not. Russia would like to think that it's the biggest threat in the world, but it is not. And even though Russian influence waned, the United States very dutifully increased, we increased our percentage of defense spending beyond what was the agreed to amount amongst NATO member nations, a percentage of our GDP.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Beyond the agreed to, what was it, 2% or 2.3% of our GDP, we increased, spending to 6.2% of our GDP. We form the bulk, if not the over 90% of NATO's resources. And so we've been doing this the entire time. The entire time. We have in some cases, well, doubled and in some cases tripled what we have been spending to meet our agreement within NATO. But the issue has become this. Europe absolutely refuses to recognize that China is a bigger threat than Russia, that China is a threat at all. Actually, let's just start there. They refuse to recognize that China is at all a threat.
Starting point is 00:08:02 That's why you have people like Emmanuel Macron, who is out there rolling out the red carpet, begging for massive Chinese investment, saying that this is one of the things that he said on stage there at Davos, saying that this is something that we want these that's in the newsletter. I don't know if we have, yes, we do. Listen, this is 14. This is exactly what he's talking about. This is Emmanuel Macron talking about how they need more Chinese investment.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Listen. China is welcome, but what we need is more Chinese foreign aid investment in Europe in some key sectors to contribute to our growth, to transfer some technologies. And not just to export towards Europe some devices or producers or products, which sometimes don't have the same standards or are much more subsidized
Starting point is 00:08:51 as the one being produced in Europe. We're trying to figure out the sunglasses with him. We don't have an answer either. We really, we don't. Then you have Mark Carney and others trying to align with the communist Chinese. Now, they're doing this even while the United States was doubling spending
Starting point is 00:09:07 to NATO. They've been doing this the entire time. I mean, dwarfing the spending of other nations. So Europe not only refuses to recognize that China is a bigger threat than Russia, they refused to allow the United States to adjust to this massive geopolitical shift in interest of our own national security. They want all of our defense spending. They want all of our resources. And they bulk at meeting
Starting point is 00:09:32 the minimum pledge. While we increase our commitment to NATO, they've increased welfare spending. That's what Europe has done. They're silent as China has colonized Africa. They're silent as China has tried to colonize the South Sea. They're silent as China makes overtures. to colonize Taiwan. They're silent as China's been trying to colonize Central and South America through the Belt and Road Initiative. I mean, the UK for crying out loud handed Hong Kong back to the communist just a couple of years ago. And meanwhile, they're inviting all of these partnerships with the communist Chinese while simultaneously demanding fealty from the United States. I mean, you had, we're going to play Ursula Vanderlin here coming up. She was like,
Starting point is 00:10:16 oh, well, Europe must always choose the world. The EU, even handle its own borders, much less all of Europe. And you're talking about leaders in Europe that are sinking into socialism and Islamism, shaping them into untrustworthy allies. They are committing political, cultural, sovereign sepacu. Islamist sepacu. Not even all the way up in the Nordic North where I was at this last fall is untouched by the plague of Sharia. I saw that with my own eyes. So this is what we're talking about. Do you really believe that we can entrust our security, and especially if you consider where Greenland is geographically, to alliances that cut deals with our geopolitical foes who carry out asymmetric warfare against us as we speak? That's the question.
Starting point is 00:11:09 This isn't supposed to be a one-sided partnership, but that's what Europe and NATO have been expecting us to behave as though it is. We're going to talk more about. this because you can you can debate Trump's tactics you can debate his tone but what you cannot debate is how our supposed allies are helping the colonization of communist communism and islamism worldwide and that's just simply not debatable I'm going to tell you to carry and carry lead whenever you can and if your signage isn't legal then to hell with you I also understand that you know college kids are made victims by these institutions where they refuse to protect them I know a young woman who was brutally raped on a college campus in Colorado, and I was there as the speaker of that state house told her that she still couldn't carry to protect herself because her innocence wasn't important enough.
Starting point is 00:12:00 This is the stuff I'm talking about. When you're denied being able to protect yourself, one of the most basic human rights, you have to outthink the evil state that wants to make you a victim and elevate the criminal. And this is where a burn a gun comes in. If you're not 21 and you can't carry or if you're a parent of a college kid or maybe you have to go into a local municipal location where you can't carry, you need to check out a burn a gun. They have different types. I'm only going to tell you about the CL because that's the only one that you need for this purpose. It stands for a compact launcher and the burn a CL, burn a gun, even though it's not a gun, shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away. And with the burn a gun, if you compare it to regular stun guns, you have like maybe one or two rounds with a regular.
Starting point is 00:12:43 regular stun gun. Burna has 15 rounds, 15 shots per cartridge. So that's a lot of chances to put some time between you and a threat and get to safety and deter that threat. And Burna does not care about gun-free zone signs. It does not care. It laughs at them because it's not a gun. You buy it online and they send it to your house. There's no background check. There's no permits. There's none of that stuff. Check out the Burner CL. It's roughly the size of an iPhone. There's no recoil. There is no worry about target acquisition. You have different projectiles, different accessories, all available at Burna.com slash Dana. B-Y-R-N-A. Burna.com slash Dana, ready when you are. Do not believe government numbers. It's not just about the CPI inflation numbers. Government is now saying health insurance
Starting point is 00:13:29 is down by 19% over the last five years. Does anybody believe that? Check out the watchdog on Wall Street podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you get your podcast. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. So, Vice President J.D. Vance and second lady, Usha Vans announced yesterday that they're expecting their fourth child. It's a boy they announced via Instagram. In other news, Marco Rubio has now been selected as the new nanny for the Vance family. He's got all the jobs. And he's also probably going to have to take control of Greenland as well. So diversify your uniforms, sir. Brutal cold. I don't know. about you guys, but everybody that I know who lives in the North and the Midwest, I got 12, no,
Starting point is 00:14:16 no, let me look at this. I'm not exaggerating. I, oh, 11, sorry, maybe slightly. I had 11 messages just this morning from everyone who lives up north and in like Northern Midwest asking me if we're ready down here in Texas for the ice and snow that's going to cripple us. That's all they're obsessed about. They don't care about themselves. They care about us because it's hysterical to watch people in the southern part of the United States deal with these. major storm brewing. It's apparently, what is it, like a once-in-a-lifetime kind of storm. Cain gets us sick with a plague.
Starting point is 00:14:48 As a once-in-a-lifetime storm, we're expected to get all kinds of sleet and snow and all the frozen things. So just settle in. Get your French toast supplies. Get your toll of paper. Get it all set. I did, didn't I? I did say it.
Starting point is 00:15:01 You know what? I hit your infection. Give me some grace. Toll it. That's what we're doing today. Let's see you here. The average 50-something American is now worth $1.4 million. which does not say anything I think about the state of wealth.
Starting point is 00:15:13 I think it says a lot about the state of inflation and the bad state of the economy because nobody believes that that many people are millionaires. We really don't believe that. We have a lot more coming up. Stick with us. More of the Dana Show. Back after this. The folks who helped make the program possible, it is the folks over at, well, human,
Starting point is 00:15:34 the company behind the Super Beats Heart Shoes. They have their turmeric chews. If you have not checked these out, you definitely need to. and you can go to Sam's Club and get your bag. By the way, the bags have changed a little bit. So they have some bold new packaging coming out. It's in an all red bag. And it's going to be for a period of time on the shelf with the old packaging.
Starting point is 00:15:55 The old packaging is white with red lettering. This is a red bag. So it's the same formula, the same product. It's just in a new designed package. That's it. And you can get it at Sam's Club. Now, the turmeric that they use, it's a standout form of turmeric, and it delivers the equivalent and dioxide in support of what you would find in a much larger amount of standard turmeric extract, so the benefits are really convenient. And they use a clinically studied turmericurcumin complex that helps solve the issue of absorbability.
Starting point is 00:16:23 They use a highly absorbable form so you can get the best benefits of this turmeric. It tastes like a lightly orange citrus flavor. It's a chew. It's a little bit smaller than a starburst, really chewy, very easy to take, very good. No additives, no added sugar at all either. You're getting powerful antioxidant support in a format that fits effortlessly into your daily routine. So kick off the new year right and get your turmeric chews from the company human at Sam's Club. Go and get your turmeric chews.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Remember two different packages out. Now they're going to all red. Pick your bag up today. The Dana Show podcast. Your fast, funny, and informative news companion for those always on the move. Subscribe on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcast. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash, with you. Go and find me up on Substack because we've got a lot of good stuff up there.
Starting point is 00:17:12 Thank you for the nice thoughts and prayers and well wishes dealing with my ear infection. It's not the worst thing in the world. But it is when you have vertigo and you feel like you're drunk when you're not drunk. It's the weirdest feeling ever. I've heard from some of you who deal with this all the time. I don't even know how you get through your day. Oh my gosh. I'm like, no, you need the prayer.
Starting point is 00:17:31 Not me. You do. So welcome back. Instead of being shot show, we're here monitoring everything. we're going to dive back into this Greenland stuff. But the weather, because apparently the whole nation is going to get winter's coming. It's going to get plunged into the weather beyond the wall. It said apparently 200 million Americans are worn to brace for the coldest winter storm ever.
Starting point is 00:17:51 They're negative 50. Okay. Guys, if it gets 50 degrees like not negative, I can't deal. I just, I'm not. I am born for a storm of a storm. certain temperature. A column does not suit me. But have you seen the weather maps? I feel like they get bigger. It's like an old man's fishing story. It just gets bigger and bigger. Like, well, it was supposed to be just this part. Now it's this old swath. Now it's the whole United States. Now it's
Starting point is 00:18:21 the whole everything. Snow and ice. And it's going to hit eastward, going to go south. I mean, it's going to be cold in Tejas. It's going to be cold everywhere. So everybody, like I said, get y'all's French toll supplies. Don't go crazy with a toll of paper. You know, save some for other people who also have to use a restroom. Just saying, just go and get what you need. But don't be freaking out about it, right? Because you're going to get through it, especially you people who live up north. You all used to dealing with this.
Starting point is 00:18:48 I want to hear it. It's those poor suckers down south who are like, oh my gosh. There's ass airwear. I don't know how to deal with this. So just, you know, everybody, just be safe and don't leave your pets outside, right? It's going to be Greenland in the United States. Look, we're importing their culture already. We were talking a little bit about this.
Starting point is 00:19:05 we were going into headlines, this lopsided participation in NATO. I just feel like I'm, I'm not saying that I devalue NATO. I know that there's a lot of stupid knee-jerk reactionaries out there who don't really want to have a conversation. They just want to be perceived as winning something for clicks. But the alliance was never supposed to be a one-sided partnership that prioritizes strictly only Europe's needs at the expense of our national security. It was never supposed to be like that. And I'm really getting tired of the presumption that the offending party is always the United States, which also is not true. The offending party here is Europe, because Europe refuses to acknowledge the legitimate security concerns of a growing Chinese hostility coupled with the
Starting point is 00:19:55 problem of Europe refusing to wean itself off of cheap Russian oil and gas. And the idea that the health of the alliance or the reasonableness of the United States is defined by whether or not Europe singularly is fat and fed and happy is offensive. That's just BS. I mean, it's the incendiary rhetoric is coming from one way. It's coming from the Danish leadership. It's like, oh my gosh, they're going to, they're invading. No one's talking about invading. But you know what? If you're worried about an invasion. Why are you not talking about the Islamist sepacu that you're committing with your own invasion? Let's have a discussion about nations that are already entertaining invasions. Let's talk about France. You can't even go in parts of Paris. Let's talk about the
Starting point is 00:20:47 UK where for over 13 years you had a grooming gang of Pakistani men who trafficked young girls like the age of seven sexually trafficked, women and girls into sexual slavery, right in their own hometowns under the noses of their law enforcement, their elected leaders, and when town officials were made aware, they were more concerned about being perceived as racist towards these Pakistani interlopers who were coming in, most of the time illegally, and trafficking women and children in Rotherham and other places. That's the invasion, if you want to have a discussion about invasions. Acquiring Greenland in a business acquisition that does more to protect the West than anything the EU could ever hope to do, that's just good business. That's just good business.
Starting point is 00:21:37 So this is, you know, it's silly to, you know, people can sit here and get on Trump's tactics. They can say he's heavy-handed. They can say that, you know, the tone taken with European nations. I just think if you're going to do that, then you also have to take into consideration the tone that you've heard from these European leaders. I'm just not going to have be looked down to by people who allow for, uh, is, Islamist invasions to come in and turn their countries into serfdoms. It's just not going to do it. And that's the issue that we've had here. You had Ursula von der Leyen, who said the EU is on the cusp of making the mother of all deals.
Starting point is 00:22:13 They're talking about India. And she says, her quote was, Europe will always choose the world and the world is ready to choose Europe. Okay, well, the issue with that is that the EU can't even handle its own borders. It's not even strong enough to willingly choose anything. You know, if the United States wanted to go, you know, balls to the wall under Greenland, we could. And there's not a damn thing that you can do to stop us. But that's, we don't have imperialist tendencies. We just want to protect the United States.
Starting point is 00:22:42 And I just am not going to hear from these countries that are turning a blind eye to the expansionist, the imperialism and expansionism of China looking to acquire Greenland or Russia looking to put a placeholder on it for China. And it's not doing it. not going to do it. So this is what Trump is looking to solve. And you can take issue with how he's doing it. I really don't care. I don't care. And I am not going to have the measure on tone determined by leaders who allow their children to be trafficked by Pakistani grooming gangs for nearly two decades and do nothing and be implicated by their own apathy. Just not going to deal with it. I'm not going to hear. about it from Kier Starmer, this absolute meathead. I mean, I'm pretty sure, and this is a very important point that I wanted to bring up to, because I think a lot of people miss this. This was over at, let me pull this up, give me one second. So this was over, CBS actually had it. The headline, and this is just from yesterday, Trump U-turns on UK's Chagos Islands deal, claims it's another reason Greenland has to be acquired by the United States. How many people know what's going on with
Starting point is 00:23:57 this story? A lot of people don't. A lot of people don't. A lot of people. people don't pay attention to where the Diego Garcia is actually where it's where it's being held. They're not following the martius. They're not following these islands near India. They're not following all this. And that's, you know, no one's blaming you. I mean, for crying out loud, you've got to work to support all the people in the Somali diaspora in Minnesota who don't. It's the Chagos Island transfer. And it's this island in the Indian Ocean that hosts the Diego Garcia, which is our aircraft carrier, right? And there was a deal. Apparently, Kier Starrmer kicked off what I would only describe as an international incident in the way that he handled it. It is, yeah. And of course, Kier Starrmer is also
Starting point is 00:24:43 another one who's been trying to raise the alarm about invasion as it pertains to Greenland, which is so stupid. So basically you had the UK not be forthright about the situation with this aircraft carrier, Martius, which has been linked to Maduro and all of this other stuff before. The Labor Party with Kirstarmer had lied about the ties to the island. Kirstarmer misrepresented the deal because there was a deal back a year ago, and Trump seemed kind of apathetic to it. anything that he looked at. These islands, they were trying to say that the Martutians had no legal claim other than this. Again, here we go with a non-binding, looking at the non-binding international
Starting point is 00:25:31 court opinion, you know, because we're getting into the international rule of law, which is a farce, right? So basically, Kier-Starmer is giving them, giving this nation that has no legitimate claim on this Island, the island, and also paying them over $100 million a year for 99 years to lease back the Diego Garcia. And apparently, this whole backroom deal took the United States a little bit sideways because it was completely the opposite of how it had been represented by Stramer and the UK. And a lot of, you know, Nigel Farage and others were blasting it because apparently other people that were in Parliament were completely unfamiliar with the deal as well.
Starting point is 00:26:14 So, and then, of course, POTUS blasted them in a post on true social saying, quote, our brilliant NATO ally, the UK is currently planning to give away the island of Diego Garcia, a military base to Martauchess and to do so for no reason whatsoever. We had a carrier that was there, blah, blah, blah. It's like a base for our naval. We can use it if we so choose. He said to give away the island of Diego Garcia, side of a vital U.S. military base, and to do so for no reason whatsoever, he said, said, no doubt, China and Russia have noticed this act of weakness. And he went in and said, the UK giving away, here's the key, the UK giving away extremely important land is an act of great stupidity and is another in a very long line of national security reasons why Greenland
Starting point is 00:27:01 has to be acquired. He can't trust the UK. Do you blame our administration for not trusting the United Kingdom because they've already misrepresented this? deal to them? Do you honestly believe that these nations, which are committing Islamist Sepaku and sliding into socialist hellscape, do you honestly believe that they would do and honor any kind of alliance with respect to acquisition of Greenland if it was China or Russia? No, that's the whole point. This is just another example of it. This is another example of it. And they can sit here and say that Trump's comments on this are incendiary. The incendiary aspect of this whole issue is the deal that Starmor made in the first place.
Starting point is 00:27:47 I mean, for crying out loud. I mean, they, trying to sit here and go by some make-believe court of make-believe law. So now you see the importance of making sure that we're able to protect ourselves adequately. You can't trust Europe. That's what all of this is leading into. you're not able to trust them. We're going to talk more about this. Also, a few other things that we have on deck as well, because we have a lot with this still.
Starting point is 00:28:20 In Minnesota, the DOJ has served subpoenas on the offices of a number of Minnesota officials, including Tim Walts, Jacob Fry, Keith Ellison, all of these lawmakers, whom, as you remember, were on the, I mean, I don't want to say payroll, that's not the way to put it, but they were getting kickback. from that multi-billion, like hundreds of billions of dollars, taxpayer fraud scheme in Minnesota. So they were served subpoenas. The Department of Justice served them with subpoenas. The AG, Tim Walts, Minneapolis mayor, all of them. And the House now is holding hearings on it.
Starting point is 00:29:00 They're trying to seek further communication. Because you can't tell me that they were unaware of this. Remember back a couple of months ago when it came out that one of those organizations that was involved in, I think theirs was like $234 million worth of fraud, was the Feed Our Future Fund, which was had to deal with feeding the kids during COVID lockdown, et cetera, et cetera. That completely fell directly solely under the jurisdiction of the governor, Tim Walz. It fell under his jurisdiction. His office ran that department that oversaw that program. So you can't tell me that they were unaware of this. I mean, Illinois Omar, I don't know why she's not being subpoenaed.
Starting point is 00:29:42 I feel like she ought to be, especially since she's the one whose own federal election campaign filing show that she received money from the guy who was key. He was one of the few so far of everybody who's been arrested. Only two of them were not Somali. He was one of the individuals who was actually arrested and convicted for vast swathes. of fraud, hundreds of millions of dollars of fraud. And he had held campaign events for her. He donated a lot of money to her campaign. He was he who also donated to Jacob Fry as well. So I don't know why she wouldn't be included in that. Maybe that's another move that they're going to make. Maybe they're just focusing on strictly state-level lawmakers. But, I mean, there's enough there right now with the
Starting point is 00:30:25 AG. In Minnesota, which we're going to talk about, I mean, not only do they have this on their hands, but then they also have meth addicts running into their churches and trying to flex just because they hate Christians. And then you have Don Lemon, who is a, he's, he's trying to prostitute himself out to save his dying career. I've always got along with him there for a while. We had the same agent. And I, I never did not get along with him. It's weird because sometimes in broadcasting, you sort of run in the same, you run in similar circles to some of these others. But I always thought he was particularly high on himself. I always thought that. Like I've been to a couple of events where he was there with his partner.
Starting point is 00:31:03 And he always, like, his partner always seemed sainer than him. Just weird, right? But going into that church, we're going to talk more about that coming up. We also have some Second Amendment stuff to look at because the oral arguments, Wolfram V. Lopez, that's incredibly important because we're going to talk about vampires. I mean, guns and got got stuff. Like, what? Perfect.
Starting point is 00:31:25 So we got a lot of stuff to get into as we move. We got days of these United States on the way. our partners who help bring you the program, our friends over at WebRoot. They want to make sure that you're protected because there's so many ways. Just to be frank, swindle you out everything you got. I'm not kidding.

Because let me tell you, by the time for,
Starting point is 00:32:29 It's already negatively impacted you and it is almost impossible to rectify it. So you would rather be proactive and make sure that you have Webroot total protection. And they make it easy because it's 60% off right now, but just for a limited time. It is the number one antivirus on the market. And when you compare it to like the Norton's and the McAfee's, Webroot scans six times faster. It takes up 33 times less space.

If you stay against heavily armed, massed federal troops debating the American city
Starting point is 00:33:46 for using a scalpelial tactics against our fellow citizens. If you believe you don't deserve to be murdered for exercising your American rights to I mean, it's really good to see that at a hundred and twenty years old he's still kicking, I guess. That's Bruce Springsteen, whose face is an ad for constipation remedies whenever he plays a solo. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you, Days of these United States. What is he talking? What protests is he talking about?
Starting point is 00:34:27 National Guard, he's like, oh, there's armed federal. He's just throwing a bunch of word salad up there. I mean, you know, spare a thought for the rapist that he's standing for. I don't know how, I'm sorry, you're a cuck. If you're a male and you're out here defending illegal immigration, particularly these deportation of these violent repeat offenders who, and we've read the names, actually we didn't even read all of the names. There's so many.
Starting point is 00:34:55 We're talking about violent convictions for violent sexual assault, rapes, sodomy, all of this child molestation. Trying to paint these people as victims, Bruce Springsteen is just committing, you know, I don't know how I was to put it. I mean, how do you look at your wife like that? How do you look at your wife and be like, I'm not man enough to defend you from threats like this?
Starting point is 00:35:18 So I'm going to make these people the victim and you have to bear the weight of it. I've never seen people cuck themselves, but I guess it's a new American pastime for the American left. Stick with us, second hour on the way. It's our friends over at Relief. Raleaf factor, relief factor, wants to make your life pain free. I mean, everybody, it doesn't matter really what age bracket you fall in. It really has to do with how well you've taken care of your

So I wish, in a normal time, I would say, no, I say this is First Amendment activity. And time like this, it's just really difficult to say
Starting point is 00:37:01 because the one thing is, the only one thing is clear. If Trump likes you, you can do no wrong. If he doesn't, he's going to use every weapon he can against you, including our criminal justice system. It's not a free speech issue to trespass onto private property and then try to threaten and intimidate people while they're having church services. That's an Islamist AG, Keith Ellison,
Starting point is 00:37:27 who got millions of dollars kickback from the Somali fraud case there. And now a subpoena has been issued to him. They are pretty amazing. Pretty amazing. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash, with you. We're at the top of the second hour now. And just a quick recap, we were going to be at Chacho, but serious ear infection. I'm still kind of grounded.
Starting point is 00:37:52 So that's why I can't wear anything in my other ear right now. But we're going through. We're kicking through. So I appreciate y'all's fellowship. But anyway, we got the Chatter-Rumble substack, chapter and verse, have a lot of good stuff that's up there. You can go check it out. But this church, what would you, how would you all have done? I don't know that we would have, I don't know that if people would have been able to get that far in any of our church services.
Starting point is 00:38:22 I just, I just want to show you. And I know you guys have seen a fair amount of it. how is this in any way cut 15 an issue of speech this is intimidation and i dare say aggressive and threatening listen so you can see the protesters here are have gathered over here um they're in the middle of the church during the beginning of the service the pastor was speaking and um Mekima stood up and said her peace, and then the protesters surrounded her, but this is a clandestine mission. This is private property. I think they found out one of the-
Starting point is 00:39:01 By the way, it violates the FACE Act. That's the Freedom Access to Clinic Entrances Act, which also protects places of religious worship. So they can't, what they just did is a felony. None of the things, that's not a protect, it's disrupting church services. So trespassing on private property. Disrupting church services. that isn't a it's not a first amendment issue it's not something that's protected by the first amendment and it's specifically the face act specifically prohibits threats force intimidation things like that
Starting point is 00:39:40 i mean they and there's no by the way it's interesting to note because don lemon's trying to present himself as a journalist there is no shield for journalists there they don't get protection This is cut 16. Don Lemon, this is just excrement. Watch. What do you think of this? I mean, this is unacceptable. It's shameful. It's shameful to interrupt a public gathering of Christians in worship. But there were folks who are. I have to take care of my flock. Listen, we live in, there's a constitution in the First Amendment to freedom of speech and freedom to assemble and protest. That's not what this is. We're here to worship. We're here to worship Jesus because that's the hope of these cities. that's the hope of the world is Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:40:25 I want to be very respectful. Please don't push me though. We're here. We're here to worship Jesus. That's why we're here. That's why we're here. Don Lemon, cut this, cut this. Look at me. Look at the camera. Don Lemon is a whore. He is a political whore cuck for ratings. Shame on you for busting up into a church service and trying to do what you do.
Starting point is 00:40:45 I get it that you got fired from your network and you're unemployable anywhere else. But this isn't going to do it. That's not going to do it. somebody busts up into my church service i'm assuming that they're going to shoot it up and i'm going to draw on you you want to f a you'll f o you're not going to do that you're not going to turn houses of worship into that and walk in with your equally racist clansman meth heads i i just what a rat fink seriously just what don lemon is a horror golly i mean at least be a nice one he was, you know, harmless enough when he was just out there clowning himself.
Starting point is 00:41:26 But then when you start doing this, going into church services, and if you dislike me calling you that, then don't be a whore. Really simple. Then don't be one. Don't be a pathetic wannabe journalist. Can you imagine like living out your 60s? I don't know, I'm assuming. He's a lot older than me. Living out your 60s, like I guess I'm just going to go slum it by busting up churches with these meth heads. And that guy looks like a meth head. Oh, I don't care how mean I sound. I am not sounding as mean as I want to be because I find this disgusting. This is disgusting. These people are ridiculous. And then he's like, well, then he calls them entitled white supremacists because they literally feared for their safety. This is cut 17.
Starting point is 00:42:09 And there's a certain degree of entitlement. I think people who are, you know, in the religious groups like that, it's not the type of Christianity that I practice, but I think that they're entitled and that that entitlement comes from a supremacy, a white supremacy. And they think that this country was built for them, that it is a Christian country when actually we left England. Nothing says ratings like two old white, frozen-faced queens sitting here going back and forth about which one of them is least racist for attacking churches and scaring children during Sunday morning services. Seriously? I just think it's hysterical that the left is trying to make one of their thought leaders, some Z-list interior decorator. I just find that funny. I do find that very entertaining.
Starting point is 00:42:54 Go ahead and let them have that. They don't have a lot, guys. Just let them have that little bit. It's okay. It is. It's like real old housewives. That's right. I feel like I'm watching with that little panel there. Again, I could be a lot meaner. I just, I have zero courtesy, zero grace, zero anything for these people. Because now they're, they're, and why? Because they thought that one of the there who works in law enforcement might have something to do with border patrol and ice. Good job journalism. I listen to this. This is, is this the meth head guy? Isn't this the guy who looks like meth? He looks like what you clean out from your shower drain and you put a sock hat on it. This is cut 18. Sorry. All these comfortable white people who are living lavish comfortable lives while
Starting point is 00:43:39 children are dragged into concentration camp. You're living real life nice lives with your lattes doing absolutely nothing for your Latino and Somali. brothers and sisters. You come here to a man wearing a suit is a preacher. Did Jesus wear a suit? Did Jesus prophet off the words? No. Jesus would die within others. You do not touch me. You can't you. You are a fake Christian. A prophet earns his own. I mean, first off, maybe read the Bible a little bit. I mean, I, and good on these kids for not taking this clearly meth addicted, loony, comie, seriously. No, you bust up into my church. I will draw down on your ass. Because you're coming in there with the intent to intimidate and threaten. I'm not going to pause. Your
Starting point is 00:44:22 life is not more important than mine. Your life is not more important than the lives of the innocent people sitting around me or my children. And I'm not going to pause and say, oh my gosh, first off, let me adjudicate this really quickly. Are you here to kill us? Because, you know, we've had people storming churches and shooting them up that look just like these people, storming in and shooting them up, killing people. Are you trying to do another Sutherland Springs? Are they trying to do another Sutherland Springs? Are they trying to do? to do what they did to the synagogue literally down the road for my house? Because I'm going to assume that they are and I'm going to draw down on your ass. That is exactly what's going to happen.
Starting point is 00:44:55 And I'm going to hold you there until I determine whether or not you still prove a lethal threat or cops intercede and take you and it will be well within my constitutional rights of self-defense. And I would encourage every other person sitting in a church pew to go out and do similar because I'm tired of this stuff. We're not going to start targeting people in churches. We're not going to sit here and go, wait a minute, Mr. Attacker. We've had histories, like in the past 10 years, an inordinate amount of churches that are getting shot up in synagogues that are getting attacked and targeted. We're just trying to figure out if you're here to get clicks for yourself and that old Queen Don Lemon's failing cable, like not even cable internet blog show, whatever the hell it is.
Starting point is 00:45:34 We're just trying to figure out if he's trying to pimp off you and use you guys as prostitutes to get clicks or if you guys really are here to murder us all, as you seem intent on doing. That's it. I feel like that's fair, Kane. it's a fair thing just this insane i i i i feel so bad for those people there because now what is it going to be like they're going they got church again sunday are are they going to worry are they going to be worried and too terrified to show up because they're afraid that these people are going to target them i just um that's sickening to me and it just shows you that not everybody in this has they're they're not they're none of these people can't
Starting point is 00:46:20 care about. I see you, by the way, did you recognize how many because the left thinks this is important Latino appearing
Starting point is 00:46:26 people were in that congregation. Yeah, the Latinos are at church on Sunday. They're not running around with old queens and meth heads. They're in church on Sunday.
Starting point is 00:46:36 This is cut 18. The meth heads own video shows people telling him to leave and he refused. Watch this. All these comfortable white people who are living lavish. They're like leave.
Starting point is 00:46:46 That woman's like, please leave. They're dragged into concentration camps. You're living real life. They're like, please leave, please leave. They asked him over and over again. These people are absorbed. They're obsessed with themselves.
Starting point is 00:46:59 The people like this meth head screaming. He doesn't care about this issue. Because if he did, why did he vote Democrat? If you really cared about the problem of illegal immigration, why did you vote for the party whose policy made it to where the borders were so open that it allowed for the cartels to exploit it for human trafficking purposes, which became a bigger money wagon than drugs even? I mean, no one wants to discuss that.
Starting point is 00:47:19 He goes up and gets in the faces of these youths, goes and gets in the faces of these other young people who were sitting there trying to worship. This is an attack on Christians. And again, you're storming at church. I'm assuming that you're coming to do another Sutherland Springs or another, again, like the synagogue down the street or the one that was in West Texas or the one that was in Colorado. I mean, we can go on and on because there have been a number of churches and synagogues that have been targeted. So I'm assuming that you're just one of those individuals. and that's what happens when you make stupid choices and decide to interrupt services like this and barge in. I mean, thank heavens that these people probably are all prohibited possessors and they weren't able to carry in there in the first place because I feel like the congregation would be dead.
Starting point is 00:48:04 This man has enough hate in his heart to me to do it. I feel like he would have killed them all. That's my personal opinion. And I'm usually right. I just, I'm done. Well, I've never. I don't have any kind of courtesy for these people at all. all at all. And I feel like it's a shame that we have to share the surface of the earth with them.
Starting point is 00:48:23 Really is. Now, I got a bunch of other stuff to get into because we've got, man, where do we even start? We've got the latest with Davos and Potus slapping everybody around about Greenland. We're also going to get into, oh my goodness, more whiny, Nebo-Islamist Neppo babies. So there's an Islamist Nepo Baby model who didn't become a model until she had a nose job, who's really upset at Dulce and Gabana, because Dolce and Gabana, which is an Italian design house, hired Italian models from Italy for one Italian show, and she's decided because they're not Islamists,
Starting point is 00:49:02 she's trying to turn it into a racial attack on them. She's white as hell, and her dad has retconned his own family history so much. There's a subred on it, so we're going to talk about that and more. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. All right. So first, oh, excuse me, almost sneeze for a second. K-pop demon hunters is Netflix most watched movies so far,
Starting point is 00:49:28 and it's not even close. Before you freak out, it is literally one of the most conservative things you're ever going to watch. And for people who are like, yeah, but yes, there is a ton of religious overtones because a lot of the people that are involved with that are, like have Christian background. But if they're like, oh, well, they don't say Jesus specifically, remember, neither did Lord of the Rings. I'm just saying, take it. for what it is. It actually is, I watched it. I actually watched it. It was great. I'm not into the music,
Starting point is 00:49:54 but, you know, the animation was good. And it was, the dialogue was very good. And you can feel okay about your kids watching it. I can tell you that. It's literally good versus evil. But I'm, can you believe that that's like the most watched thing? Because they get a lot of filth on Netflix. I don't know if you've seen some of the stuff that they've like just launched this year, but it's, so that was really nice. Christmas 2025 was the biggest streaming day ever in the United States. It says Nielsen. Interesting. Is it because of all the...
Starting point is 00:50:20 You know, it's probably because I watched Die Hard five times. There was a lot of hype around Stranger Things being released on Christmas, too. I haven't either. But I like the Millie Bobby Brown Girl because she seems nice and kind of trad. I mean, like in a real trad way, not a fake Instagram click way. But NFL and Stranger Things, that was... That's what they were attributing that to. And their revenue and profits have risen.
Starting point is 00:50:45 I just still... I don't think that, like, if I'm streaming something, Netflix is never where I go. If I, unless it's the Great British Baking Show, or the aliens thing. Not gonna lie. But I watch Amazon Prime. That's what I do.
Starting point is 00:51:00 I watch, like, a lot of the old stuff on Amazon Prime. So, well, let's see, Pierce Morgan gets a hip replacement. I don't care. Oh, Threads overtakes, tauts and pairs. Threads overtakes X and daily mobile users. threads over takes X? Threads? Wait, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Starting point is 00:51:21 That's the Instagram thing that I always scroll past and purposely ignore, right? Yes. Yeah, me too. Why does that take a... Why is that taken over X? That's kind of weird, right? You okay, Kane. Kane's dying.
Starting point is 00:51:32 King's got the plague. Kane is the plague. He's going to get us all the plague. We have more on the way, including Islamism and Nepo babies. Stick with us. Brighten up your timely news consumption with the Dana Show podcast. where every update comes with a little dash of Not So Serious on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts. A little bit of Morrissey.
Starting point is 00:51:53 Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you, recovering from ear infection and getting ready to go into Ice Paloosa as we get ready for this crazy storm. We're going to get into some of the two-way, stop the Second Amendment stuff with the Wolford v. Lopez case and vampires and all kinds of things. But I had to touch on this. I saw this last night. And I'm looking at this, and I was actually reading about a movie. It's an Oscar contender because you know, what is it, that Timothy Shalameh has movie, Marty Supreme, that it's about ping pong and I'm not going to see. I'm just not going to do it.
Starting point is 00:52:31 You know how they do the whole campaigning to get a film, an Oscar? Normal people like us don't care. But what I do think is interesting is that one of the women, one of the actresses in this film, they're calling her like a legitimate rising star and I think it was the telegraph, which is a garbage publication, but still, and others were saying that it's an overuse phrase, but with her, for her specifically,
Starting point is 00:52:54 it might not be because she really is a talented actress. Her name is Odessa Azeon. And people are like, oh, her last name sounds like Zion. Now all of these anti-Semitic turds have been following her everywhere. She's 25 years old. She's Jewish. and people have been attacking her because of it.
Starting point is 00:53:14 And it doesn't matter, as you guys know, what you do. Like, she's come out and called for a ceasefire, and she's criticized Israel, and she's checked all the boxes that you're supposed to check. But that doesn't matter to Islamists because you are still existing as a Jewish person, and they will hate you as long as you continue to exist, no matter how many times you bend the knee.
Starting point is 00:53:31 It doesn't matter. And I was thinking, like, how insane is that? That this is so beyond. This is what, it goes so beyond just like disagree It is identity politics. And then, as I was looking at this, I came across this story that's over at, I think it's the New York Post. And it has to do, now bear with me, because some of you guys out there are going to be like, wait, is she talking about women's wear? Hold up. It's not about women's wear, though. So, Dolce and Gabana, they are two Italian dudes who run a fashion house. And it's, you know, they're considered quintessentially Italian, like Valentino, who. who's passed away just over the weekend and like Farragamo and Gucci and things like that, quintessentially Italian based in Portofino. They had a fashion show in Milan just recently.
Starting point is 00:54:23 And they've had these like fashion shows, you know, in different places around the world. In Milan, they were hiring, because that's where they were, Italian models from, again, it's an Italian fashion house. and they were hiring Italian models to walk the runway in an Italian show, in one Italian show. And so this one chick, her name is Bella Hadid. She's a Nepo baby. Her mom was one of the real housewives, whatever. Her dad is that Mohammed Hadid guy.
Starting point is 00:54:58 He's like some kind of Beverly Hills property developer who's retconned his own history in Nazareth so many times. there's an entire subreddit devoted to his ever-changing story. It shifts like the wind-swept sands. You know, however, he can try to, like, present his family as victims or something. And he lied and said he was born here and he apparently was born somewhere else. Long story short. So this chick, who didn't become a model until after she had a nose job, which is true, she has been like a big Hamas Gaza advocate.
Starting point is 00:55:33 And she promotes an amplification. all the Pollywood nonsense. All the Hamas truth ministry lies. Like she promotes all of that stuff. And she apparently decided to go after Dulce and Gabana, accusing them of racism, sexism, and bigotry, and said it was embarrassing and that their show was, quote, 50 shades of white because they had mostly Italian,
Starting point is 00:55:58 and this was a menswear show, so it was mostly Italian male models. Again, it was Milan Fashion Week, an Italian house, they don't take a codyer of models and fly them all around the world. They hire and source locally. Unless you're a big time model, that's like how it works. I have no idea how I know this, but that's how it works. So they had a menswear show. It was a fall, winter menswear show in Milan. They hired Milanese models. They hired Italian male models from that area for one Italian show. and she lost her mind over it because she, that's all she does.
Starting point is 00:56:36 All she does is bitch and moan and then promote Hamas talking points. That's all she does. It is so annoying to must be just exhausting to be incessantly aggrieved the way that she is. And all she does is complain and whine and do these things. And I'm just like, what is the difficulty in understanding an Italian house hires Italian models for an Italian show from an Italian area where the models are predominantly Italian. I mean, has she said this?
Starting point is 00:57:08 I mean, do you want to look at some of these other designers? Or do you want to look at Super Bowl halftime shows? Or do you, I mean, for crying out loud, why do we still have these nepo babies practicing race codes? Because that's what she's doing. She wouldn't even be on the runway if her parents weren't who they are and she didn't have a nose job. And those are God honest facts.
Starting point is 00:57:27 End of. So I just, like, where do these people come from? And she was, she's like apparently like an influencer and all this stuff. And I don't know. The whole thing though, it's like a popular to go after Dolce and Gabana because they're not woke, which is weird because it's like two gay guys who are not dating each other that do this fashion line. And they love the female form. They make like stuff. I mean, imagine like Sophia Loren.
Starting point is 00:57:53 That's the type of stuff that they do, right? Like that classic Italian silhouette, female silhouette, that tailoring all of that. You know, it's like classic femininity, and they're very non-woke. Like Carl Lagerfield was very non-woke, and a lot of people got mad at Carl Lagerfield before he passed away. Dulce and Gabana are very not woke. And the woke scolds, like the Hamas Nepo babies and all of this, have been trying to get them canceled now for 10 years.
Starting point is 00:58:17 And it hasn't worked because people like the stuff that Dulce and Gabana makes, even though it's super expensive and, like, you know, maybe you can get a pair of sunglasses. But it's, you know, they make very, I mean, they make really pretty stuff. And they appreciate the female form. and they didn't get into all the trance. They didn't get into any of that, like a lot of these other places did. And I think that's made them targets. But I just think that she needed to get a boost in name recognition.
Starting point is 00:58:40 And so she decided to go on another screeching, you know, tangent about it. I'm just so tired of this stuff. It must be so exhausting to be so completely untalented and bitchy all the time. You know, good heavens. Maybe they can find that and fix that in a plastic surgeon's office in Beverly Hills for you, too. I don't know. Maybe. All right. So, man alive. Speaking of codes, the Kintanji Brown Jackson, I don't even know where to start with this, because at first I thought this was a joke. Actually, like every time, the last several bits of audio that we played legitimately, when I have seen them pop up and I see like a brief synopsis of her remarks, I immediately don't trust, even if it's a trustworthy source, what I'm reading.
Starting point is 00:59:29 because it's so ridiculous. And this is, again, par for the course. So you have Wolford v. Lopez, and it's a Second Amendment case that is being argued right now, and there's been a lot said about it. This has been going on earlier this week. And in one of these instances, you had a discussion as to what does permissible firearm regulation look like
Starting point is 00:59:57 and, you know, who's free to carry, who is free to not carry, things like that. And you had these people inadvertently, starting with Justice Kintanji Brown Jackson, literally saying that, well, she's defending black codes as a precedent for consideration as to constitutionality. Just listen. Justice Jackson. So I guess I really don't understand your response to Justice Gorsuch on the black codes. I mean, I thought the black codes were being offered here under the Bruin test to determine the constitutionality of this regulation. And it's because we have a test that asks us to look at the history and tradition.
Starting point is 01:00:41 The fact that the black codes were at some later point determined themselves to be unconstitutional doesn't seem to me to be relevant to the assessment that Bruin is asking us to make. So can you say more about that? Absolutely. Black codes were unconstitutional from the moment of their inception because they are pretextual laws that are designed to ensure that newly freed slaves are returned to a condition of sheer crop. Okay, let me stop you there. They were not deemed unconstitutional at the time that they were enacted. They were part of the history and tradition of the country. And when we have a test now that's asking us to look at what people were doing back then, I don't understand why they should be excluded. Because they are outliers. They are by definition unconstitutional. They have found later. Afterwards, not at the time.
Starting point is 01:01:30 And if the test says what's happening at the time tells us what's constitutional for this purpose, why aren't they in? Respectfully, a law is always unconstitutional. When it's from its inception, it's when it's so the history doesn't matter. We should care about the history then. We should deeply care about the history. So if you're, if you're scratching your head thinking, what in the world is she talking about. She's essentially saying that because an unconstitutional law was incorporated or in existence on the books at one particular point in time, that it can now credibly be used
Starting point is 01:02:09 from here on out as a legal precedent. Well, it was always unconstitutional, first and foremost. It's the constitutionality of something that determines precedent, not the existence of whether, not the mere existence, it's the constitutionality of it. I just, she's, you know, she's so smart, we're told. We're told she's so smart. I was amazed at that. And then this is the principal deputy solicitor. This is Sarah Harris.
Starting point is 01:02:44 And, well, her reaction, as you can imagine, would be yours. Listen, this is 35, sorry. There's been some discussion about the black codes. And maybe they should be relevant, but maybe we really should consider them as significant here. In fact, they're a dead ringer, thoughts. It is 2026, and it is somewhat astonishing that black codes, which are unconstitutional, are being offered as evidence of what our tradition of constitutionally permissible firearm regulation looks like. So it's Wolfer v. Lopez. This is a case because it's going to, and it settles around Hawaii,
Starting point is 01:03:21 and it's determining whether or not they can, eliminate the Bruins the the the Bruin standard meaning does it comport with the founders uh establishment of our long-standing second amendment firearm traditions that's the Bruin test which it's going to go down i mean it's going to get it's it's going to be wrecked uh this this this uh this uh court case for hawai i's going to lose this they're going to lose this it is going to be a wreck for them to hear them try to argue this. And Hawaii's trying to do like an in-run around all of this by saying, well, you have to be able to, you can't take your firearm basically anywhere. You know, basically it's all public spaces. You can't take your firearm, et cetera, et cetera. And that's where the whole vampire rule came
Starting point is 01:04:10 from. So the vampire rule, that was what Hawaii had tried to implement as a way to end run around Bruin, saying, well, any kind of entity can prevent any kind of an entity can prevent any, sort of legally armed patron and you have to ask questions before, you have to ask permission before taking your firearm anywhere. And it's called the vampire rule because vampire folklore, in order to go in some place, you have to get permission. So it's like an in run around that. And it applies to every space, every, everything. Like it doesn't matter if it's public or private, whatever. And they're trying to do an in run around this. And they were arguing that somehow that goes along with the long, that they could, even though it violates the longstanding
Starting point is 01:04:50 tradition that Bruin has already established. So, So that's that, that is the Wolfer v. Lopez case. I just, it was amazing to hear Kantanji Brown Jackson say, well, you know, even though it might be unconstitutional, it existed. So it can still be used as precedent. She's literally, she, I just can't even believe that she actually, I mean, I can. But it's still amazing to hear someone who masquerades as being an educated person try to argue that, well, because black codes existed and they were at one point historical, that that's the legal precedent from here on out going forward. Oh my gosh. By the way, you realize, and I wrote my first book on this, hands off my gun, that one of the reasons why the Dred Scott case went the way it did with that
Starting point is 01:05:32 racist Judge Taney, who was a big time far left Democrat, is because he was using Scott's inability to own a firearm as a free person as the final mark against his quote unquote personhood. And that was actually used as a litmus test to establish personhood was firearm ownership, which as you know, Democrats were they really advocated against any minorities being able to exercise their Second Amendment rights, freed or not. So it's very interesting to hear someone on the bench argue that. Stunning. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida, man.
Starting point is 01:06:13 All right. So where to even start? That's the big, I got a guy having a tantrum over a little. leaf blower. So let's start here. So this has to do with two Florida men who got into a big giant fight because apparently someone used his leaf blower and blowed blue, blue, blue leaves on someone else's car, which is rude. I mean, I don't think he did it on purpose, but, and it was all caught on camera. Things went sideways really quickly. A man stomped on a worker's leaf blower because leaves kept getting on his vehicle. And the guy was very, very aggressive and I was
Starting point is 01:06:49 watching it. I don't think the guy was doing it on purpose. It was in Delray Beach and it was in the parking lot and the guy was cussing and he like grabbed it and started stomping on the thing and oh my gosh so now he's in trouble. You have to understand that if you're parking your car outside and it's next to trees or grass or anything and you have landscapers that are dealing with the grounds that your car could have stuff blown on it because they're there to deal with the grounds. That's all there is to it's not those guys' fault. And in the video, it didn't look like the guy was, I don't know. I mean, it doesn't look like he was trying to do it on purpose. Maybe I'm wrong, but it didn't look like that. A man, a Florida man shot a kidnapper for trying to abduct his wife. Yeah, he did. That's a real
Starting point is 01:07:36 man, Bradenton, Florida. A Bradenton, Florida man fended off a kidnapper who tried to kidnap his wife on New Year's Day. It was in Manatee County. Nicholas Palomo, a 36-year-old felon, had previously legonic prison for kidnapping and a bunch of other violent crimes, tried to abduct a woman who is walking her dog. She tried to escape by running from his car, made it to her home, warned her husband, and the husband went outside. The guy, and apparently Palama hadn't left. He was still trying to get her. So the guy went outside. He saw the guy still trying to threaten the wife. So the husband shot him once in the driveway, that was it. Sheriff's Office said it was in a matter of minutes entirely self-defense. And they all, he also prior, like just prior to him stalking
Starting point is 01:08:16 woman and trying to take her. He had caused a ruckus at a circle K up the road. So they're doing it. They were apparently doing the toxicology to see if he was under the influence of narcotics as well. Third hour on the way. Greenland, Islamism, NATO, Minnesota, all kinds of stuff. Stick with us. The United States cares greatly about the people of Europe. We really do. I mean, look, I I am derived from Europe. Scotland and Germany. 100% Scotland, my mother. 100% German, my father. And we believe deeply in the bonds we share with Europe as a civilization.
Starting point is 01:09:00 I want to see it do great. That's why issues like energy, trade, immigration, and economic growth must be central concerns to anyone who wants to see a strong in united West because Europe and those countries have to do their thing. They have to get out of the culture that they've created over the last 10 years. It's horrible what they're doing to themselves. They're destroying themselves. It's beautiful, beautiful places. We want strong allies, not seriously weakened ones. We want Europe to be strong. And he's not wrong with that. That was POTUS speaking to Davos earlier today, reading the Riot Act, essentially, to NATO, to Europe,
Starting point is 01:09:41 to NATO nations, saying you need to be just as much of a partner as you expect the United States to be, a reliable partner. And as I wrote on my substack yesterday, it can't just be this lopsided participation while the United States increases NATO spending to well over the 2.3 agreed upon for member nations to over 6% while Europe, meanwhile, simply just expands its welfare state. This is all about national security. Welcome back to the program. Speaking of UK, et cetera, British NHS, they were slammed for downplay in a multicultural danger. I still can't believe that this is the thing.
Starting point is 01:10:20 They had to publish, you guys remember this, this was in September. We talked about it at the time. They had published a piece where I'm not exaggerating this. They were advocating the benefits of marrying your first cousin. Oh, yeah, it's a real, yeah. It's from the telegraph. It said, first cousin marriage has benefits, says NHS, despite birth defect risk. Why did they have to write that?
Starting point is 01:10:50 Why did they feel like, huh? Maybe. And they looked at the NHS England's genomics education program, which they found completely widespread in Pakistani Muslim families in UK. Now they have a second row because now they've apparently repeated these claims in training guidance from midwives. The guidance declared, quote, the increased risk of genetic conditions amongst the offspring of close relative couples has often been exaggerated. That is the direct sentence. And it also told midwives in its language, quote, discouraging cousin marriage
Starting point is 01:11:35 is inappropriate, end quote. Oh, and then they say you can't quote, you can't, you can't stigmatize patients who have a baby with their first cousin because in some cultures it's perfectly normal yeah you know just a couple heads that's all an extra nubbin here and there I don't know and then it gets into the insane high cousin marriage rates in some of these countries so NHS is now looking the other way because immigration into Britain is a deluge and the number one source is from actually the top three sources Pakistan Nigeria and India. And Nigeria and Pakistan practice cousin marriage. And in Pakistan, it's actually over 65% of marriages are between first cousins in Pakistan. Wow. That's according to their own
Starting point is 01:12:28 recordings. Not the Brits didn't make that up. In Nigeria, it's 20%. In India, it's 7.5%. But it's a major problem in the Islamic world. This is, I mean, it's just to say that it's not ignores their own recorded data that their government requires them to keep. Britain ignores it, and now they're trying to accommodate it. So again, I go back to, let's look at all of these reasons why you might have the United States a little worried about the footing of its allies in Europe, because in the UK, they are completely absolving their own sovereignty and handing it over to people coming in from Pakistan, many coming in illegally from boats, North Africa, all this other stuff. I mean, that's been a whole issue for quite a long time now.
Starting point is 01:13:17 They're not having any kind of balanced entry. They're not having any kind of orderly entry. It's as though you remember how bad it was with our borders being so open as long as they were. It's like that on steroids. And it is changing even the way that they run their health directives because they find that it is, they've been told that it is inappropriate and offensive to discourage marriages between first cousins and when you have over 65% of marriages in Pakistan are from that that's from both the independent telegraph so let me throw some fun sources out oh brilliant maps
Starting point is 01:13:57 brilliant maps which also uses world population review that's where they get their data when you look at the cousin marriage by country yeah in And it is a major problem in Islamic world, a major problem in the Islamic world, to an insane degree. So that's why they're doing this. In Kuwait, it's 54%. Qatar, it's over 54%. And Sudan, it's 50%.
Starting point is 01:14:25 Cousin marriage. First cousin marriage. Afghanistan, 49%. Iraq, 46%. In fact, all of the top. countries, and the top being Pakistan, followed by Kuwait, Qatar, UAE, Sudan, South Sudan, Afghanistan, Mauritania, Iraq, Iraq, Yemen, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Oman, Syria, Bahrain, Gaza, Egypt, Jordan, Guinea, Lebanon, Sri Lanka, Algeria, Turkey, Tunisia, Nigeria, Morocco, Bangladesh.
Starting point is 01:14:59 Those are the top countries. Is there something that sticks out to you about those countries? could there perhaps be a common denominator from those countries? It is a major problem in that part of the world. It affects lifespan. It affects genetics. It affects intelligence. It affects everything. So when you are watching your allied nations not only demand that the United States continue funding the bulk of NATO while they simultaneously don't and instead increase their welfare spending,
Starting point is 01:15:35 while they also beg China for infrastructure investment a la built and road and then further they actually reorder their own society to accommodate things like first cousin marriage due to the influx of Pakistani immigrants that's a major issue and it is well within a completely perfectly logical reasoning scope of asking whether or not we can continue with our foreign policy In our geopolitical planning, knowing that this ally is turning into not a strong ally after all anymore, due to all of these factors, UK is handing itself over to Islamism. France is very closely there. In fact, Paris basically is. UK, London, parts of, I mean, it's horrifying. the treatment within their own communities of one another. So this is, this is, when you look at all of these factors, it's perfectly reasonable to make that assessment.
Starting point is 01:16:39 And Russia's just sitting back, rubbing their hands together. They're weakened. They're going to let, they're going to sit back, they've slipped into shadow, they're going to sit back and let all of these other factors try to tear apart the West. And China's sitting there waiting for its moment to act, waiting for a moment. waiting for a moment to exploit. That's what this is all about. And you have Europe eager to help China, eager to help them. I mean, what the UK did with the Diego Garcia
Starting point is 01:17:09 and the islands in Indian Ocean for our national security is just another indication that they don't, no, no, no, national security is a one-way street for them. I mean, Maloney over in Italy was correct when she noted, yeah, you know, Europe's not being the best partner. She's something that she had said over the weekend, and she was entirely correct. She is one of the very few European leaders who really gets it.
Starting point is 01:17:36 She understands Europe is not, Europe is not being the best partner right now. So the issue with all of this, now they're trying to make it an issue on behalf of the United States. Oh, this is the United States. This is Trump's problem. This is Trump going, you can debate Trump's tone. And you can debate some of the tactics, but he has a legitimate claim to this objection.
Starting point is 01:18:05 What he's saying is not wrong. And they're trying to deflect from that by acting like, well, he's a bull in a China shop. Oh, he's just so coarse. Or he says, I'm so tired of hearing that from people who look the other way with Pakistani grooming gangs. I'm so tired of hearing that when you have Emmanuel Macron out there begging for Chinese investment. that is more, that's coarser and more ridiculous and more bull in a China shop than anything else that Trump could be doing. So let's not do these stupid equivocations. It's silly. Cut 25, also silly. Pam Greer was on the view. And she decided to tell a really fantastical story about her youth, but there's a little bit of a problem with it.
Starting point is 01:18:53 This is apparently on trend for certain celebrities to start doing. Listen to what she says here. You face a lot of racism growing up in Columbus, Ohio. How did that shape you? Well, the military wouldn't allow black families to live on the base. So you had to live an apartment. And you couldn't take a bus. You couldn't afford a car.
Starting point is 01:19:16 You walked. Your dad's walk to the base. And sometimes we would go from, you know, tree shade to shade to get back to the apartment. My brother and I, my mom, with bags. And my mom would go, don't look, don't look, don't look. She'd pull us away. Because there is someone hanging from a tree.
Starting point is 01:19:36 And they have a memorial for it now where you can see where people were and left. And it triggers me today to see that a voice can be silenced. and if a white family supported a black, they're going to get burned down or killed or lynched as well. Yeah. Well, so there's two things.
Starting point is 01:20:02 First off, she's lying. Pam Greer's a liar. She was born in 1949. The last lynching in Ohio was said, well, the report was that it was in 1911, but then what's more is that the Equal Justice Initiative, which is left wing, reported that there has never been a single lynching documented
Starting point is 01:20:21 in the history of Columbus, Ohio. So maybe elsewhere in Ohio where she wasn't, the last was in 1911. And yes, black Americans were lynched. Other Americans were also lynched. It's awful. But there has not been a single in Columbus, Ohio in the entire city's history. And that's according to the Equal Justice Initiative. So what is she describing here?
Starting point is 01:20:45 And what's more, why is there this need for these older celebrities to make this kind of stuff up, especially minority celebrities? it's odd like why do this why why push this stuff right now i mean it's propaganda propagandizing it's all propagandizing it's they can just say whatever the hell they want to imagine i mean if you're leftist you can go out and say whatever the hell you want there's no repercussions ever there's hardly any repercussions for you it's very very rare if there ever is if you had someone who said this on the view. If Megan McCain had said this on the view,
Starting point is 01:21:28 if Scott Jennings had said this on CNN, how do you think this would go? What do you think the response would be? You would have the New York Times, Washington Post, their fact checkers, you would, oh my gosh, every media ombudsman would be all over anybody who said this on any kind of program who came from a non-progressive bent.
Starting point is 01:21:49 It should be less acceptable to debase American history by making it up to suit you advantageously. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. So apparently Europe is going to launch an alternative to X called W for weeners. I'm kidding. Wankers. I'm kidding.
Starting point is 01:22:16 I don't know what it's for. I don't care either. It's the new platform, WV. to require the identification and photo validation to ensure that its users are both humans who they claim to be according to political decay
Starting point is 01:22:31 is the Danish paper. They said it's supported by a bunch of people. Nobody cares about mainly from Sweden. They said that W stands for V as in V's the people. But then they said the first of the V is that make up the V stand for values and the second font is verified.
Starting point is 01:22:50 I can't make this. I can't make fun of this enough. I can't. I'm sure it's going to suck out loud. Yeah, let's, yeah, I'm sure it's going to be, it'll be like blue sky, which is basically a bunch of mental abortion projects that get together and scream at each other. Let's see, a flaming meteor. Nine emojis are coming to your, I don't care about any of this. This is stupid. New nine emojis, none of them are guns. I don't care. A stupid butterfly, a net, a pickle, an eraser. Nobody cares. This is dumb. This makes me dumber even talking about it. Let's see, swimming coyote at Alcatraz.
Starting point is 01:23:24 Universal Orlando announces a fast and furious roller coaster with a 170-foot vertical spike. Happy to send all my enemies on it. That's it. We have more in store. Do we have Yates coming up? Okay. He's still in store. Stick with us.
Starting point is 01:23:39 Not able to catch all three hours of the Dana Show? Subscribe to the full podcast and get news and laughs delivered in short, easy to digest episodes. Ideal for your busy lifestyle on YouTube. or wherever you get your podcast. If I hear of someone who's fashion that I like and I know that they're a person of color, I try to make it a point. But the clothes have to be available.
Starting point is 01:24:04 You know, I think we can all do some work to think about that balance in our wardrobes, you know. What does our closet look like and who's in it? Who are we supporting in it? Right. You know, and I think if you have the money to buy Chanel, then you have the money to buy everybody. And so let us be mindful, I think would be my advice.
Starting point is 01:24:29 Just like you bought an oceanfront property in Hawaii and ocean front property in Martha's Vineyard and a big old mansion in Chicago. I'll buy whatever the hell I want. And you're going to sit down and you're going to take it because I don't give a damn. It's not up to you to tell people how to spend their money. Does she ever stop being just bitchy? does she ever stop every single i mean i have never seen a single clip of anything this woman is done where she's just having fun and she's just enjoying life she's got to come out and grievance and bitch
Starting point is 01:25:03 and moan about everything and i just don't understand how someone who had such a silver spoon entitled life is so mad and hates everyone and wants everybody to be as miserable as they did. I would love to have the kind of upbringing that Michelle Obama had. I'm the poor girl. Not her. You all are. Not her. Her and her rich entitled husband. Both of them. Nepo babies growing up and very well-to-do families, bank presidents and university professors and driving parents driving new cars and being able to go to whatever college they wanted to, never having to worry about anything. People bend in old. and lifting them up from the very beginning of their professional existence, launching their political campaigns in their living rooms in Chicago, raising the money, buying them a big old mansion so they can hold that status in Chicago doing all this stuff. I'm so damn tired
Starting point is 01:26:08 of it. I don't feel bad for you. You were never in any way aggrieved more than anybody else, ever. It is a yarn that you spend to try to make yourself seem more special and to maintain control. These people try to gate keep grievance. I'm so tired of it. And she's a racist. Michelle Obama is just an old bitchy racist. I'm done with it. I'm so, don't buy from white own brands. That's what a racist would say. How about you just buy whatever you want to buy because you like it? Doesn't matter if it's black or white or whatever. That's not something that I do. First off, I don't have the type of cushy existence that she does, where I eat bonbons all day and I sit on my ass and I don't work. I don't have the type of free time where I'm like, let me look into the life of this
Starting point is 01:26:57 designer and find out their whole backstory before I commit to a purchase. If I like it, I just buy it. It's very easy. Pretty amazing, right? If I like it, I just buy it. I don't care about what their backstory is that they either make things that are nice or they don't. That's it. But can you imagine, yeah, if you had anybody, any Republican first lady, oh, well, I try to avoid black-owned brands and others should also. Can you imagine if they had said that? Can you imagine? Good heavens. I mean, it would have been never ending. You would have had a nonstop news cycle about it. but that's that's racist what she's saying it's divisive it's racist I I I'm she trying to convince that she just has it so hard I mean I think they have issues in
Starting point is 01:27:55 their marriage you never see them together he never seen you don't see him anymore it seems like he tries to stay away with her her and her lookalike brother do these podcasts oh I don't care if it's mean I'm tired of being lectured by this old entitled woman who had such a great life and had such a cushy entitled life and had such a cushy entitled life that she wants to look down on everyone else because you're not you don't share her skin color or you don't share her retcon history what is i mean it's like pam greer what is with these women that try to make up to where they have such a hard coming up they try to rewrite history and act like oh we had such a hard we go you had no idea michelle obama does not know struggle she does
Starting point is 01:28:35 not know poverty not in the way some of us do i don't want to hear it and i'm not going to feel bad and be told that i have to shut up because of my skin color racists Not going to have it. Good heavens. How about, you know, what would be great if she went out there and just said, you know, just buy whatever you want to buy. It doesn't matter. Support who you want to support.
Starting point is 01:28:54 Support whatever brand you want to support. That's, that's it. That's all I got to do. That would be a lot more unifying and a lot, but it doesn't get clicks. I don't know. I guess there's a portion of the population out there that loves this grievance peddling. Like, I can't get into it. It just annoys me to no end.
Starting point is 01:29:13 I just can't. Then she says this, cut 30. She would never consider running for president because she is not likable. She doesn't have the credentials and she's not likable. So I don't even know why we're entertaining this stupid idea. Listen to this. This is 30. You said, don't even look at me about running because you all are lying.
Starting point is 01:29:33 You're not ready for a woman. You're not. There are men out there that were not going to vote for a woman. Let's just be real about it. And let's put that on the table and talk about, well, what's that about? Let's not be mad because I made the statement. The young women that we're talking to, keep climbing. We need you and know that you may come up short, but keep going.
Starting point is 01:29:54 What does this even mean? Nobody cares. All I heard was a bunch of word salad that was miles wide and inches deep. Shallowness that's supposed, that's like cosplay as some sort of analysis or some sort of intellectual deep dive. No. What is this? First off, you're just not likable. That's why they would never vote for you.
Starting point is 01:30:13 Like Hillary Clinton wasn't likable. Like Kamala Harris wasn't likable. There are women out there who are likable. Margaret Thatcher was likable. There's other women in the United States that are Sarah Huckabee Sanders is likable. They're likable people. They come across. They're amiable.
Starting point is 01:30:27 They're friendly. They're not constantly trying to put you down by acting like they've had it so much harder than you, even though they actually haven't. They don't say racist things like you should avoid brands based on skin color. They don't say stuff like that. That's why people don't want to vote for you. Nobody, and you're just not qualified to do it. Sorry, but, you know, working as an attorney and being a nepo baby, that's not enough of a qualification. Can we get, can we just move past the nepo baby age?
Starting point is 01:30:56 That would be great. We have a, it's a problem that's pervasive in every aspect of society, including politics and especially right-leaning politics. It's so bad. Can we just get past it? I get so tired of this. It's so tired. So I don't. I don't know. I wish that there is a subsection of the American population that just is grievance mongering. I feel like though it's kind of dissipating. Although you have this. This is Sunny Hosten cut 24. Let's just go ahead and do a trifecta of mind numbing stupidity. This is cut 24.
Starting point is 01:31:36 people don't have cars, don't have drivers licenses. So it's sort of a vestige of, I think, post-slavery laws where they, where black people had to prove their right to vote. And oftentimes they couldn't vote because they couldn't pass some crazy tests or they didn't have the appropriate ID. It also affects women, women that are married. Maybe one, your passport reflects something that's different on your, on your birth certificate or on your driver's license. So really the bottom line is voter suppression. And I agree with him 100%. It's brilliant. She's upset because you have to have a voter. You have to have voter ID. Is she mad because you have to have an ID to buy liquor? Is she mad? Is that slave codes because you got to show an ID to get no club?
Starting point is 01:32:25 Is it slave codes because you got to show an ID to run a car or to get utilities or to do any of stuff? I'm just so tired of it. I'm so tired of the grievance peddling. I'm so tired of it. That's all they are and that's why they're losing. Nobody, nobody cares about, nobody, nobody wants to entertain this. They don't want to entertain this. A few other things to make sure that we're getting, we've been unpacking a lot of things, Greenland Islamism, we've been getting into NATO, et cetera, as well as, ooh, we got to touch on this. Where to even start? So, whoa, what is happening in Virginia? Affordability is now a joke. One of the first things, well, they're also reducing penalties for violent sexual attacks. That's true.
Starting point is 01:33:12 But also they're introducing new retail and sales taxes. All the Virginia Democrats in a single bill, listen to this. They're levying retail, sales, and use of tax on everything. On all what they say are services. Admissions, charges for recreation, fitness, sports facilities, non-medical personal devices, counseling, dry cleaning. laundry services, companion animal care, residential home repair or maintenance, landscaping, cleaning services, vehicle and engine repair, any kind of repair to any tangible personal property at all, any storage of tangible personal property, any delivery or shipping of any services, any travel, any event, any aesthetic planning service, and any digital service.
Starting point is 01:34:07 This is when I would start paying in cash under the table. We need to make a non-digital economy great again, honestly. I would be paying cash for all of this, and I wouldn't be marking any of it down. Not a single bit of it. They are going to ruin that. They're turning Virginia into California. Did they just get tired of having wins, and they decided, you know what? Let's go royally blank ourselves.
Starting point is 01:34:33 Let's go do it. How in the world does something like this happen? How in the world does this happen? The amount of taxes. And how do you have a tax on a service when there's no transfer of goods? How is that a tax? How do you tax that? I mean, what in the world?
Starting point is 01:34:56 But that's what they're putting out. That's what people voted for. That's what the majority. I realize not all Virginians voted for, but a majority did. So you're just going to now apparently it's going to be more expensive to live in Virginia. Think about how all
Starting point is 01:35:10 of that, everything that's applicable towards. So if you don't record the transaction then there's no record of the transaction. Right? This is, wow, people are going to start leaving Virginia. That's what's going to happen. They're going to wreck the economy on that state.
Starting point is 01:35:30 Didn't they have a budget surplus? So they decide they're going to raise taxes after having a, because that's where I remember reading about that under Yonken. So now they're going to raise taxes because they have a budget surplus. What are they going to do with all that money? I mean, you're talking about, I mean, it really is class warfare. Also, I'm curious as to like the Uber drivers and DoorDash and, you know, people who do those types of services. How is that, you can say it's class warfare, but then when you look at, the individual that is
Starting point is 01:36:05 that is selling those providing those services I mean these are blue-collared working people they're going to be slammed by this because there's going to be a reduction in demand because people are going to want to pay exorbitant taxes on every single thing out there and also how here's the so here's the more practical aspect of it how do you even assess all of this and bring it into compliance? Are they going to have to expand all of their, I mean, their tax assessors and their auditors and their bill, the people who do the billing?
Starting point is 01:36:47 And then what about lawyers who are handling penalties and going after people who are not compliant with this? I mean, how in the world that's, you're creating an entire other bureaucratic wing in that state. This is why elections are important. This is why state and local elections are important.

Starting point is 01:37:27 because there's a lot of good stuff that's gone out there on the late, including some, kind of having some fun stuff with some of the commentators out there as of late, which I'm not going to get into on my program, but you can go read about it over on the on substack. A couple of other things to get into because we've been touching on the Davos stuff, et cetera, and the ongoing pushback, I think not pushback, but I think misdirection of expectation, blame analysis, whatever of Trump as it pertains to Greenland NATO, we'll keep watching that. Apparently, though, who was it? Did you say King Kavanaughson was very upset?
Starting point is 01:38:05 Because he really wanted his time to shine at Davos. And he was not given that opportunity. What happened? Where's he at? He was supposed to speak. Apparently he had two speaking engagements that were pre-scheduled. I don't know about how bad Trump is, I guess. And so basically, I guess because the transcript of those speeches went out and
Starting point is 01:38:31 Trump was like, why would I, why would I even let him do this? Yeah. So he says, yeah, no thanks, Gav. Appreciate it, though. Yeah, no, well, he's mad about it. Now he's at, I kind of think that maybe he was just told, perhaps, that he was going to be able to have some time. Why is he even there?
Starting point is 01:38:47 I mean, I get it that he wants to run for president. And he just keeps making mistakes, but he's playing this grifter game very well. He's playing this grifter game quite well. He just, but he's not likable. Like with Michelle Obama, she's not likable. Gavin Newsom's not likable. He's not a likable guy. Like some people are likable.
Starting point is 01:39:06 Like Trump is likable. Some people are just not likable. And I don't think he is. So is anybody really going to miss him speaking at that? No, the weft thing. No, nobody is. Nobody is. A few other things, let's see, to make sure that we're hitting.
Starting point is 01:39:22 I love how globalism was called out earlier today. Scott Besson said that Europe is still buying Russian oil, which they are. they absolutely are Ursula von der Leyen was saying Greenland's status as a territory is non-negotiable the Danes will enforce it militarily though you know by the way in Greenland you can't own your own
Starting point is 01:39:39 property yeah you can't own your own property you cannot own property at all you only can lease it from the state there's no private property ownership on Greenland interesting all right today's stupidity came all right we don't have exactly enough time to play this but Sunny Hostin and you played this earlier just like 20 minutes ago she talked about how somehow requiring ID to vote is the same thing as denying women and black people
Starting point is 01:40:05 the ability to vote. She said some really stupid things in her life, and a lot of it's been recent. This tops it. This pretty much tops it also. Sonny, thank you very much. You and the DEI hires at the View are always given. There you go, right there. Grievance mongering at its finest.
Starting point is 01:40:23 We should have invented that industry. I kind of feel sad that I didn't. Folks, that does it for us today. great rest of your day. I'll be back behind the mic with you tomorrow. Get your French toe supplies.
