I'm proud of what I fought for. I'm not going to back down from them one bit. I will answer all of these senators' questions, but this will not be a process tried in the media. I don't answer to anyone in this group. None of you, not to that camera at all. I answer to President Trump, who received 76 million votes on behalf and a mandate for change. I answer to the 100 senators who are part of this process and those in the committee. And I answer to my Lord and Savior, and my wife and my family. I'm proud of the Senate. proud to be here. And as long as Donald Trump wants me in this fight, I'm going to be standing right here in this fight, fighting to bring our Pentagon back to what it needs to be. Well, and that's kind of the key, isn't it, is whether or not Trump wants him in the fight. That's kind of the back and forth of what everybody's looking at, because he came out, and that was Pete Huggseth, obviously, who is defending himself in this ongoing fight for who's going to be. sex death.

And Trump came out with a statement that I feel was not strong. I'm going to be honest about it. Welcome to the show. Dana Lash with you. And we've got a lot of stuff

that we're going over today because we've got the breaking news in the Daniel Penny case, which is all underway now. They're in the courtroom. Yes, yours truly still under the weather.

recovering so bear with me because we have three hours and we're in front of a camera no prompter and we don't have a team of the helpers there to like charlie brown christmas tree you all up on break so we got all of that so we're going to get into it but i want to start with again welcome though it's we're top of this first hour on friday and uh going through all of the biggest news getting you set up for the weekend now the daniel excuse me the daniel penny case which has been, I think what, the jury has been fighting it out, arguing it out for three days now, four days now. Yeah, well, they were. Apparently there are two attorneys on the jury, and I think one of them I read was serving as foreman.

And I just, I don't know what, I don't know how that factors into how it took so long, why it's taking so long, because they're deadlocked. And that's the latest with all of this. I don't even know how this is possible. the jury's deadlocked. And there are two things that they were dealing with. They're trying to figure out whether or not they can convict him of reckless, Daniel Penny, of recklessly causing Neely's death because he was in a, he restrained him in a chokehold.

And, you know, Daniel Penny, the Marine, he's a veteran. He's, you know, an aspiring architect. And his lawyers are saying, well, he was justified. This guy was dangerous. He was saying he was going to kill people on the train. Other people on the train were like, yes, he's saying that he's, that Daniel Penny was going to kill, or not Daniel Penny, but Jordan Ely was going to kill people. And the, I mean, even witnesses said that Jordan Ely was screaming at people that they're going to die today. I mean, he was full on getting in everyone's faces, attacking people.

This was after Jordan Ely had punched an older woman in the face, broke her nose. he tried to shove another woman on a train track. And then when Daniel Penny got involved, Jordan Neely was on the train track and he was lunging at a woman who was trying to shield her baby. So the jury, prosecutors had said that witnesses testified

that Neely, he didn't threaten anybody specifically. He didn't brand us a weapon. Well, if he's lunging at a baby, he is the weapon. He doesn't have to have a weapon. weapon. He's weaponized himself. Are you kidding me? Penny's attorneys were saying that there's not proof beyond a reasonable doubt that the chokehold is what caused his death, which is true. Remember, toxicology report, Neely was on drugs. Dude was on a lot of drugs. He had already had health issues

because he was on a lot of drugs. Here's the idea. Maybe don't threaten to kill people, including women and children on a subway train, and you won't get, you won't get choked out. And by the way, he was still completely conscious when Daniel Penny put him in a recovery position and got up. I mean, that was what they were trying to keep from defense was that Jordan Ely was still alive. And in fact, it was perhaps alluded that it was the hesitancy or waiting period for first responders to get to him that, you know, ultimately. But this idea that Jordan Ely should be excused that you get to attack women and children and you get to threaten to kill people and punch people in the face. And then you can say, oh, well, it's because, oh, I'm on drugs. Or I'm black. Or I'm black. Or I'm

which I find incredibly racist, by the way. But that's what the left argues. All of these things, that you FAA, you're going to FO. That's what happens. It's not the victim's responsibility to gauge the issues of her attacker or his attacker and then determine whether or not the attack is justified.

But that's what is being turned up on its head here. For all the people who are upset about due process, this is what I've been telling you. All this stuff about guns is a variable. Due process is a cornerstone of this republic. And you're not watching it. you have not seen due process in New York at all for anything lately. So the jury is trying to,

they were trying to determine whether or not they were convicting Penny of second degree manslaughter, whether it was recklessly causing Neely's death, which again, I think we kind of went over what caused his death. I mean, if you're on the type of drugs that he's on, then that Neely was on, I mean, Kane, you know this, especially when the guy had prior health issues, and he had been hospitalized because drugs did bad things to his body. So it's like he's not a, he's not an athlete. And he was messing around and threatening to kill people. The defense, their arguments on this are just shameful. Shameful.

Just absolutely. Still under the weather. All of this, all of this is to say that we're still going to have this ongoing. I mean, I don't know where we go from it because we have a deadlock trial, deadlock jury. And the determination of the jurors is whether or not Daniel Penny acted recklessly in that he, when he restrained Jordan Neely, that he either did so with. reckless disregard of what would happen or he knew and he did it anyway. And they were, that was one of the conditions that they're, one of the, one of the details they're trying to figure out. The defense, or the

prosecution was going, Jordan Ely only had a muffin in his pocket. Well, how did he break the 63-year-old woman's nose that he attacked weeks before this incident on the subway platform? What did he attack her with? Was it any less of an attack when he crunched her nose up into bits? Was it any less of an attack on that elderly woman by Jordan Neely because he wasn't brandishing a weapon. Was it any less of an attack when he tried to shove another woman on train tracks? He didn't have a weapon so it's okay, right? He's on drugs so it's all right, right? I mean, I want all the people who think that this type of behavior is okay. I want them to volunteer to subject themselves and their children to it. If you think it's okay and you think

someone shouldn't be restrained, don't call for help when you're next. Don't call for help. We're going to come back to this because we got a bunch of other stuff to get into. Like I said, that Trump statement on, he put that out. That was on true social, right? I mean, it was shared on X too, excuse me, but it was also on truth social. And the statement that POTUS elect put out as about Heggseth was that he supports him, that he

the statement that he had I mean I was waiting for something like this to come up but he had said Heg Seth is doing well that his support is strong indeed this is Trump totally wrote this much more so than the fake news would have you believe and he counts his education

he says he will be a fantastic high energy secretary of defense of defense one who leads with charisma and skill Pete is a winner there's nothing that can be done to change that absent of this in this state is a personal endorsement of him for the position. Now, you guys know enough about Trump. If he believes something strongly, he's just going to say it.

This was a very carefully worded statement because he doesn't have his mind made up yet. That's what it was. And I think that you just got to do it. If you're backing the guy, you just need to put out a definitive statement saying, I am backing him. Instead of a very carefully worded post that completely omits any personal. endorsement for the job. Because this is just unnecessary palace intrigue. I mean, Hegset is being put through the grinder right now.

And part of the reason that Hegseth is being put through the grinder is because people smell a weakness somewhere. The press senses a weakness somewhere. They are like, well, why isn't Trump coming out super hardcore for Hegsaith? Hmm, let's push this more. They think they found a weak spot and they're going to try to push it more. and exploit it more. And then they're going to drag all these other people in it. And then in the meantime, the narrative goes out that so-and-so senator or this senator or that senator, they oppose

Hegg-Seth, whether or not it's, I mean, Joni Ernst was out there denying it yesterday. She was out there saying that there's absolutely no campaign that she has against Hegg-Seth. She may be a moderate. I mean, I don't know. You can, whether or not you believe her is up to you. She may be a moderate, but she's out there saying that she's not campaigning against them. She's criticized him before, but she said that she's not. not campaigning against him. And in the meantime, you know, like I said, you have these, these lawmakers that are being pressured by different factions that are organized to, to promote certain candidates, certain nominees. And now you're creating all of this division and infighting

on the right, which we cannot have. Leave it to Republicans to shoot themselves in the foot. It's amazing. So one of the reasons why there's all this noise around Heggseth is absent a strong, hard-ass endorsement. Personal endorsement. So that tells me, Trump has not made up his mind yet. Because if he believed it, he would be out there saying he's going to be the next Secretary of Defense. He doesn't just say he will be a high-energy

secretary of defense. Trump would say, I want him as my high-energy Secretary of Defense. I want him as Secretary of Defense. The nation needs him as Secretary of Defense. I believe in my pick. He's come out hardcore, personally endorsing with I-I-I-I, and this is my nominee. This is my pick previously. Look at some of the letterhead selections that he's given thus. He's given him out there. So this seems to be a very carefully worded, hasn't totally made up my mind yet kind of

statement. But he's not, it's a statement where he doesn't want to suggest that he doesn't back Hegg Seth. But it's definitely a statement that has not, that's left the door open on considering other people. Absolutely. you guys again you know Trump well enough if he believe he's going to say I mean for cranoly what did he called rocket me in North Korea's leader he's threatened people with his bigger button if he wants it he's going to come on and say I want this and these senators are going to help make this happen he's done it before so like I said this statement signals to me the door's still open his mind's not made up and that just perpetuates the palace intrigue so all

of this is going to keep going until there is a definitive. He's made the nomination, but it's clearly not definitive. So we'll see. We got more on this.

This is wild. they halted anesthesia payments, their payment policy after backlash. So they had planned to cap the length of time that anesthesia could be covered during medical procedures in three states. I'm what? They said they were not going to go ahead with this policy change that was going to limit reimbursements for anesthesia during surgery and medical procedures. the new policy would have reimbursed doctors based on time limits set by the insurer. So just this is so Canadian. A time limit set by a suit at a desk.

Anthem BCBS, one of the largest in the U.S., quietly announced it for Connecticut, New York, and Missouri beginning February. It outraged the American Society of Anesthesiologists. The policy update went unnoticed, but then after United Healthcare CEO was shot until, The CEO was shot and killed. And then that sparked a wave of online vitriol about the health care system. And that's when this came out. Wow. New York and Connecticut were trying to stop the plan from going into effect.

But I'm mystified. First off, we wouldn't have this problem if it was private insurance and everybody could get it and it was portable. And we didn't have the absolute hideous disaster that is Obamacare. And anyone who says that Obamacare is great is the product of incest and on meth. Okay. Seriously. because it's a disaster. This is crazy.

Like, okay, so you're done with your anesthesia now. Hope your procedure's done. Not going to get, oh my gosh. I'm coming back to this, bookmark. All right, tech fail. AI cameras issued parking tickets to 3,800 drivers for blocking bus lanes, and then they realized that it was a wrong thing.

The AI messed up. It was supposed to, they, in fact, it showed that they didn't, actually none of these people did anything wrong. The cameras were not properly programmed for the route. that they were covering. This is why I don't believe any of this is accurate.

I will literally show up in court prepared to wage an all-day war over a red light camera ticket. I absolutely will. Like, I will take days off work. I will study up on every case. I will show up and I will waste that court's time all damn day. Not kidding you. If you want to do that, let's do it.

All of this stuff, this camera stuff, this is, again, no due process. None. Even if for something small like this. A black church coalition is calling for Al Sharpton to be suspended over the moral stain of taking money from Kamala Harris. Fight, fight. Stick with us. Our partners that help bring you the program.

I was actually having a debate with a friend about what genre of James Bond. I say the Sean Connery, like 60s, 70s, sort of 70s, you know, maybe, James Bond.

It's a great looking gun. The polymer version, Gator Grip texture. It comes with two standard capacity magazines. One's a 15-round minimal pinky extension.

So I will leave this chamber with a sense of achievement, but in truth, I will also leave with the recognition that I did not achieve everything I had hoped.

Among other things, the scourge of partisan politics has frustrated repeated efforts to stabilize our national debt. Oh, boy bye. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you, bottom of this first hour. That's Mitt Romney, who's saying that he's, um, he's leaving. He says that I love how he said a country's character is a reflection of its elected officials and we must be voice of unity and virtue, little known but very true fact. This was back during the 2012 presidential election and I was one of the token conservatives at CNN. And when I would go on,

one of my biggest criticisms, because obviously the hot topic of debate was this was, this was Obamacare, and it was about Obamacare, and it was also about how really Republicans made it difficult to argue against Obamacare because the Republican Party nominee for the election that year was Mitt Romney, who when he was governor of Massachusetts, literally created Obamacare first and introduced back. and introduced it zealously into the state. And I was very critical of that. And I was not hyperbolic. I was very honest. I was just the facts. And I talked about all the things that Romney did leading up to, you know, the introduction of it to the state legislature, the passage of it, how he repeatedly defended it.

And that made his campaign livid. So the Romney campaign, and I also was still a radio host. at the time too. So I was on CNN as a contributor and I was still hosting this program. And the Romney campaign, they refused to come on my radio program. That was first and foremost. They would not come on the radio program. And then I found out later, well, actually, it was still at the time I found out through one of the people who work with the contributors that he was demanding, his campaign was demanding that I'd be pulled from air or that I only go on air with a Romney surrogate because they were saying that it was, I can't remember the exact wording,

but they were very, they were very vociferously angry or critical of my criticisms of his tenure as governor of Massachusetts and his introduction of Obamacare. and the problem that created for Republicans. Because that was one of the things that Obama and Democrats always cited as why, you know, this is going to pass and why it should be because Republicans did it first. And so he tried to get me pushed out at CNN. Absolute fact. Try to get me pushed out at CNN.

And then it was, then when CNN was like, now we're not going to get rid of her. I've had Republicans and Democrats try to get me fired from CNN. It's a trip. And then his campaign demanded that, well, at the very least, I should be put on only with a Romney surrogate. And to CNN's credit, well, I mean, they probably liked the infighting. They said, no, we're not going to do that either. So they listened to media matters more than they listened to Mitt Romney at the time. So I kind of, I've given you that full disclosure because that has fueled my dislike of him.

as a politician to be a little bit hotter than my dislike of most politicians. And there's a personal aspect to it because this guy literally tried to get me booted from a network because I was critical, accurately so, of his moderate record. And yes, I did have Mitt Romney actual flip-flops that said Mitt Romney on them, which I wore. But that's beside the point. he puts this veneer of religious family man on, but he is just as dirty as all the other politicians. Just because he can put on, you know,

I just remember when Jesus would tell his disciples, you know, don't, when you're, when you're fasting, don't make a show of it, right, like the Pharisees do. You know, you don't need to put on all the robes. the ash and do all the, I mean, he was, he told his disciples, you don't need to do that. Don't be performative. Do it from the heart. And it just reminded me of that because there are a lot of, and he's one of them, a lot of politicians

that really hide behind this veneer that they've constructed, but they're just as dirty as everybody else. Just as dirty, just as underhanded, just as petty and mean-spirited as everybody else. So that's kind of, I mean, I'm glad to see him go. because he's, he has been an anchor on the neck of conservatism. And that's an accurate statement. And I have not in any point change my position on his moderate record. And he never got into the White House.

He never got me booted from CNN. And now he's leaving the Senate. And I'm still here. So I'm fine with, I'm fine with being consistent. And I will add, I caught a lot of hell from Republicans back in 2012 for that. I lost a lot of friends and that's when I first really saw that just because someone's on your

side politically doesn't mean they really are and not every R after every name is the same shade of red. So I bring that up because I think consistency is important and consistency is a great tool of refuting any kind of

accusation of hypocrisy or changing I mean it's It's consistency is key. And the reason I bring this up is because of this stuff with Joni Ernst, like we were talking about. And this has to do with the Heg-Sess stuff. And, you know, this palace intrigue, I think that Trump could end all of the palace intrigue by saying, I stand behind my nominee. This is my nominee. And I want him a sec-deaf and let's make this happen.

His statement fell short of that. And you guys all know it. Nobody's saying it, but you guys all know it. I don't like to see him put through the grinder like that unnecessarily. I don't want a nominee to get that so badly dinged up before the confirmation process that the confirmation process is nothing more than just chiseling in the epitaph and the stone. I don't want to see that. And I also don't like to see the infighting that it creates by lack of a strong, distinct personal endorsement. So now we're seeing, and Johnny Ernst is a moderate.

She's not a demon, but she's a moderate, right? she's a moderate that I think can be pressed to be more conservative. I have different grades for different politicians. She's always been kind to me so I don't have any personal dislike of her. There's no personal animus here. But she's a moderate on certain things. There's the things I definitely absolutely do not agree with her on. She says she's not waging an all-out campaign against Hegg-Seth. I don't care enough to like, I don't have why, I'm not going to spend any capital on anybody saying that they did or didn't. But what I do think is interesting is that yesterday I saw a lot of people, criticizing her for her previous positions being weak on gun on certain aspects of gun control,

which I've criticized her for too. But I did find it interesting that the same people that were criticizing Ernst for her gun control positions are the exact literal same sacks of meat that were excusing Pam Bondi's gun control. So Pam Bondi, who is being nominated for AG, is a huge gun control supporter. And I'm not just, and I, and I reject the defense that, well, Pam Bondi only was supporting it because it was after the legislature passed it. And as AG, she has to defend Florida's, Florida's law. Okay, don't sit here and be like, oh, it's just my job. I got to do it because we've heard that before throughout the years, particularly 1930s Germany, number one. But number two, she's on record before it even came out of committee in the state legislature of pushing red flag

law, of pushing waiting periods, of pushing increasing. the age requirement to purchase, and even more. She's on record, both in written word and on video, using her own mouth to talk positively about these issues. So when I talk about consistency, I don't take any of these people seriously who are criticizing one candidate who is wrong on gun control, but excusing the other, one politician wrong on gun control, but excusing the nominee for AG for also being wrong on gun control in an even worse manner. Even for, even for further than the other candidate. You've got to have consistency. Otherwise, do you know what happens? You can fool people some of the time, but you're not going to be able to keep it up.

Because people aren't dumb. At some point, they pop their head up from their work or from running the kids here and there or whatever it is. And they start looking around like, wait a minute, this doesn't make sense. How are you? It's bad here, but it's okay here. It should disqualify. So Joni Ernst's position on gun control should disqualify any complaints. that she has about Pete Hegseth, but Pambondi's positions on gun control qualify her for the position of AG. How does that work?

You see what I mean? Consistency is key. And people are going to wake up and realize and then a lot of people are going to start losing a lot of influence. It makes zero sense to spend your personal political capital by doing stupid stuff like this.

And I will say, and I know people don't want to hear it, you got to have strong leadership and you have to have a strong voice come out and say, this is my nominee. Reject him at your own peril. That's all that needs to be done. In fact, I think if Trump came out with that statement,

do you honestly think that any senator is going to stand up and be like, okay, well, I still oppose him? No. No, they're not. Because it's going to put all those people in the weird position of having to make their base happy, while also trying to kind of moderate their position to be more mainline Republican and not so much Trump Republican. It puts them in a difficult position which they need to be put in. So by not doing it the way that it needs to be done, you're also letting these people off the hook.

That's doing it 40 chest style. This is just he hasn't made a decision yet. And it's a statement that was not a strong statement. and it was uncharacteristic. I don't think he's made up his mind, and I think it's because the factions are fighting it out. And, I mean, the good news is that we've got a lot of good people that we can, I mean, we're not Democrats, we're crying out loud.

Our only options aren't that dude from the penguin from Gotham, J.B. Pritzker, and Gavin Newsom, which, by the way, you guys know that Democrats are getting ready to pitch them, right? You know that they're going, Pritzker's already made it clear he wants to run. not kidding you Pritzker's going to run Newsom's going to run you're going to have Big Gretch

Big Gretch is going to get in Poot Booty Juice still thinks that he's the chosen one He believes that he is the Golden Bob the builder And that he can come out And he's still going to run He's got to make that bank

He doesn't have an administration position In January anymore What is he, how is he going to Grift guys? He's going to actually have to get a job Like in the private sector A job good night. These people don't like to work. You know that. They want to be on glorified welfare,

which is what an elected office truly is. So what is he going to do? These are the stooges. They're going to run. So we are not like Democrats. We have a little room to say, you know what? I want a little more from you. I want a little more boldness from you. I don't want no statement that leaves lots of daylight in places. I want something definitive and hardcore. I want a statement that kicks people's teeth on. That's what I want. That ends the palace intrigue that puts everybody in line. And he can do it. He just got to make up his mind. He needs to make up his mind what he wants to do. But again, there's no bad news scenario in this. So don't be led to believe that everything has got to be burned it to the ash war. If I were a Democrat, I would want you to believe that. So you undercut your greatest strength.

But since I'm not, I don't want us to do that. We're not. We're not. Democrats. We don't have like no choices. Gosh, can you imagine being a Democrat? Those are your choices. Imagine America. You're a Democrat. I guess all we have is Newsom and Pritzker and Big Gretsch. And then Amy Klobuchar comes in and throws a comb

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. There's a little bit of controversy about that podcast because you didn't. Do you know about this? No, what? Because in D.C. This interview happened in D.C. Yeah. In a hotel. Yeah. Not in a hotel. It was like a random house. It was like random house. But apparently you can tell me they spent, the Harris campaign spent like $100,000. I did see that. It's hilarious. It's hilarious. To build the studio. Yeah, that's not true. Not true. To make it look like.

it was the studio that you used in LA. My studio that is gorgeous in Los Angeles doesn't even cost six figures. So I don't know how cardboard walls could cost six figures. Six figures. But do you think they did that? I mean, you saw it. Absolutely not. With love to them.

Oh my God, it was gorgeous, but like it wasn't that nice. It wasn't like gorgeous marble. Like, no, that was not six figures. Why was it allowed to happen? First off, oh my gosh. So our set, my set is not, and she's talking about, this is a podcast I was talking about Kamala Harris.

The interview that she did, they created this fake set. And that's six figures on it. My studio, so behind me is not just a television. It is a giant Florida ceiling, LED wall. It is legit. It is super not cheap. It's

not six figures. I have my tactical walls loaded up with all my actual real Keltec guns and also not six figures. I have a custom huge desk with a four and a half

foot wide gamer screen. Custom mic. Everything custom custom. A super boogey. like, you know, ergonomical chair. That also props me up. And full lighting rig, total pro buildout, pro cameras. Like, these are like the cameras that you would find at Fox or ABC or CNN.

That's why I don't look dim or hazy. We have nobody in podcasting has better cameras than we do for our simulcast. Literally nobody in the business in podcasting or doing digital shorts has the kind of cameras I do. Not six figures. When do they not money laundering? That's the question. This was money laundering. Stick with us. Second hour coming up. The thing that aggravates me is people are like, well, I just don't want to go into a gun freeze-zone. That's great. I would love to have that

luxury. I don't. I have a job that requires me to go places where I can't always carry because, you know, I've got a roof to keep over my head and people to feed and, you know, bills to pay, just like everybody else. But I am not going to make myself defenseless. I am not one of those people who have any issue using lethal force protecting themselves with their loved ones, and I will always encourage you to carry. I also think that you need to have a diversified array at your disposal so that you're ready for any type of situation. And this is where the burner gun comes in. It's a non-firearm firearm. It shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can disable threats from up to 50 feet away.

And when you compare it to regular, like stun guns, they have like one or two shots. Burn a S.D., their most popular selling model, has five rounds. And it gives you a defensive option when the state or a private entity is trying to deny you of a force multiplier, a way to defend yourself. There's no background check. There's no waiting period. It's illegal in all 50 states, and they can ship it right to your front door. It also does not care about gun-free zone signs. So when your options of defense are limited, the burn a gun is a great alternate choice. So check it out. You can visit burna.com slash Dana. That's the only place where you can get 10% off.

We're also on Channel 347 Direc TV. Chats at Rumble. We're on X, all those good, all those good places. So we, um, I was shocked, sort of. I saw, this is from Canada. I don't know if you saw this. This is what they kicked out last night.

And I tweeted about it, for those of you who follow me on X, it was pretty wild. The Canadian government is essentially going to turn itself into an arms dealer by taking, by confiscating guns from Canadians, and then sending them to Ukraine. At least that's what their public safety minister, has announced. Dominic LeBlanc, Audio Soundbite 19. Listen to this. Today, the government is adding a further 324 unique makes and models of assault-style firearms

to the list of prohibited firearms in Canada. This prohibition takes effect immediately. This means these firearms can no longer. be legally used, sold or imported in Canada and can only be transferred or transported under extremely limited circumstances. As part of that process, the government of Canada has committed to the Ukrainian government to identify whether some of these guns could be donated to support the fight for democracy in Ukraine. Oh, because that's what we think it is. Really? Okay. Wow. 324 different firearms.

An immediate ban. And by the way, that guy looked like he was wearing rouge on his cheeks. I'm not the, tell me that I'm not the only person that saw that, right? That thought it as well. So they're banning all different types of firearms and they want to, 324, and they want to, they want to donate them to Ukraine. They said they're working with the government to see how they could. donate the guns. What in the world? The restrictions they said are going to be implemented immediately. This means these firearms can no longer be used. And this was after they banned

1,500 previously, 1,500 makes models of firearms. Now that number's grown to 2000. The first ban was in May of 2020. And they said this guy, this fruit cake, says firearms designed for the battlefield, plainly do not belong in our communities. I don't know. Are they sending Canadians out to war with semi-auto? This is the same stupid argument that we keep having over and over again. People who have no idea about firearms,

they have no idea about what the military uses. They have no idea about any of these things, but they are taking it upon themselves to determine your rights based on their ignorance. That's a crime. It should be. And the

I mean, that's what they're calling for. They're demanding this. This is what they're, they're, I mean, it's pretty, it's in Canada. But I love the idea that first they called it a buyback and then now some of them are just outright saying confiscation. But they're turning themselves into arms dealers with this. I mean, that's, I mean, I know it's Canada. They've really gotten super far left. Have they not? Super far left. So they're, they're, uh, And Montreal, by the way, they are demanding a total ban on all semi-automatic rifles totally before they have a roll out of buyback. And so now they have this, now they have this full-on ban. Thousands of models.

Apparently, they're like a couple that are allowed and that's it. And those will be banned. That's just a matter of time before the ones that are not banned already are banned. And if you have a banned model in Canada, you can't do anything with it, not even sell it to the government because they haven't rolled out their buyback system yet. Because they want a total ban before they do the buyback. That's at least officials in Montreal and elsewhere in Canada. They said that they want a complete list and they need to have everything banned before they move forward with any kind of buyback. which that's, it's already a nightmare.

It's already a mess. I don't know how they're, how are you going to, where are you getting the money to do any kind of buyback in the first place? Toronto, I wanted to pull this piece up. There's a piece I was reading my friend Tom Knight and covered how the anti-gun efforts, particularly in Toronto, have backfired because Justin Trudeau had been bragging about his success with gun control, etc. And Toronto law enforcement are scratching their heads saying, what? They said that the, they banned handguns. They froze, they had a federal handgun freeze to address the influx of

black market firearms and officers are dealing with gang violence. Toronto's a mess. Vancouver's a mess because of it. They have tons of gang violence in British Columbia. Trudeau only looks at the firearms. He doesn't do anything about the actual gangs. So you're not really solving the problem, are you? You're just making it harder for the innocent. The idea that you're going to make laws based on criminal behavior and not based on lawful behavior is insane. You're punishing the law abiding for what criminals are doing.

That's unfair. Why should your rights be forfeit because someone chooses to engage in criminality? That's like saying, we're going to ban all cars. because people are engaging, are doing, you know, engaging in criminality with their vehicles. It doesn't, it's a stupid logic. But this is wild. So when we talk about, well, let's make Canada, let's just go ahead and annex them. I don't want to.

Because people voted for this. Their lawmakers all want this. I don't want these people. I don't want to be, I don't want to have a bunch of gun control people and make them part of my country. Hell no. Their gun control is not working in Canada at all either, by the way. and not just in Toronto or Vancouver. I mean, really anywhere in Canada where it's been implemented.

It's just been a mess. For instance, this story is CBC. They said, they keep saying gun violence is on the rise, but when you read the article, it's not gun violence, which is a stupid phrase. It's increased gang activity. But they don't want to say that it's increased gang activity. They want to scare you and use those people, use criminals as a way to bully people. into giving up their rights.

It's a record-breaking gang violence in Toronto. I mean, gangs and drugs galore. And guess what? When you have a gang problem, Kane, what do gangs like to use in commission of felonious activity? Weapons and guns? That's right, weapons and guns. Because, you know, drug dealers and gangbangers don't just say please and thank you.

Right. They don't just use please and thank you unless that's what they named their, black market acquired weapons, you know. This is please. This one, thank you. Please and thank you. So, man, Canada's got a rough. They got a rough.

And now it looks like they're going to go after absolutely everything. It is wild. We got more on this. We also have the Daniel Penny trial. The jury's deadlocked in the verdict. They told the judge they were unable to come to a decision on the charge of manslaughter. And they were waiting for instructions from the judge. judge. The verdict that what they were being asked to determine, first count second degree manslaughter

before potentially moving on to the second count, which was criminally negligent homicide. So second degree manslaughter, meaning he had him in a chokehold, wasn't aware, and just didn't know that he would, you know, didn't know that he would kill him. And then the second one was that he knew and he just, he was doing it anyway, not able to recognize, you know, the graveness of the situation. But I think both of these are predicated upon Jordan Neely being dead by the time that Daniel Penny let him go. And he wasn't. How are you asking Daniel Penny to be convicted on a manslaughter charge when Jordan Neely was still alive after? How are you trying to convict Daniel Penny on a manslaughter charge when Jordan Neely was on so much drugs, who knows if he would

have been alive later in the day? Man's OD'd, I don't know how many times. He was in and out of the hospital because the drug use complicated his health. I don't know how many times. He was violent. Who's to say that that's this assenime and to go after somebody like Daniel Penny? What they're asking the jury to determine is whether or not anyone has the right to live their lives unassaulted, unmolested, unattacked, unthreatened. That's what they're asking. Because apparently there is a protected class in the United States that if you check so many boxes, you can do whatever you want to people. I mean, clearly, he had a warrant out for his arrest because he bashed some lady in the face. He broke an elderly woman's nose, tried to kill another woman by throwing her on the train tracks.

Of course, don't forget he was on video trying to take a seven-year-old. Yeah, precious little Jordan Neely. So dangerous that even Reddit. Reddit, full of conservatives and far-left liberals. All came together in one thread and were like, everybody to be aware of this platform. There's a very dangerous guy here. It's a thread that's still up on Reddit.

Tons of comments. Even before this happened, there were tons of comments on it. This guy's dangerous. Be careful. All these people were sharing. their experiences of how he threatened them and all this stuff. It was only a matter of time. And as Eric Adams had said, you know, New York didn't do what New York should have done. People pay taxes. They pay taxes with the expectation, actually it's stolen from them. No one actually

expects anything from the government. The government, by way of forcibly taking your money under penalty of threat, has culpable deniability and not being able to follow through with the forced investment of your tax dollars. So in New York, these people paid their tax money for what? The promise of police protection? The promise that violent criminals are going to be thrown in jail? The promise that the streets are going to be safer? The promise that they'll be able to ride the subway and molested unassalted? Because New York failed. And not just in this case. There was another case where a guy was murdered by another Jordan-y-like character on a subway platform. That was, what, months before Jordan Neely.

New York failed taxpayers in this situation. They're not allowed to defend themselves. Hell no. Heaven forbid you have a weapon. And now you don't even have to have a weapon. Everyone's like Jordan Neely was unarmed. So was Daniel Penny. He was also unarmed.

And guess who else was unarmed? The woman with the baby that Jordan Neely threatened. Guess who else was unarmed? The elderly woman who was threatened. prosecutors are saying, well, no one was threatened specifically. I think that when you get in the face of a mother that's trying to shield her baby with her stroller and you're screaming, I'm going to kill you, I will kill you all. That sounds like a pretty damn specific threat.

You tell me, if you think it's a specific threat, if a known violent offender is screaming in your baby's face that they're going to murder her. Oh, they didn't say her name. Jordan Neely didn't, like, asked to see her Costco card and then read her name aloud to the subway platform. you morons. Always an excuse for the violent. I feel like this state hates innocent people. New York hates innocent people. I don't go to New York for nothing anymore.

I used to have to go all the time for work, and I still don't go back. I don't like to go to New York for nothing. My gosh, what happens if someone tries to would try to attack me or from me and would try to attack, and I would defend myself. Hell, I might be thrown into the jail too.

They're throwing everybody in jail in New York. You don't even have to be guilty of an offense as you saw with Trump. just make it up. Like with Alvin Bragg. Which brings me back to my point, stop supporting damn Republicans that are against the due process and the offenses against which I'm talking about right here. Stop supporting lawmakers that don't honor due process regardless if they got an R after their name.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick 5. The Michigan AG urges residents to play music outside to combat Christmas porch pirates after one person in the country illegally was arrested for stealing iPhone packages in one neighborhood.

So the Michigan AG, they're saying, please play, just try to dissuade them with Christmas lights and holiday music. So you're going to put them in a more festive mood to steal. I mean, that's what I'm hearing from you. That's so goofy. Why stop? People stop, stop. also let's see a Canadian man

jumped on a polar bear to defend his wife from being attacked brave man they were in the far north he leapt on the bear to protect his wife from being mauled

he suffered serious injuries but is going to recover the couple left their house to find their dogs when a bear in the driveway their home lunged at her they live north of Ontario

far far north she slipped to the ground the husband leapt on the animal to prevent it from attacking. It attacked him. He's got serious but non-life-threatening injuries to his arms and legs. A neighbor arrived with the gun,

shot the bear several times, and succumbed to its injuries. It retreated into the woods. They're patrolling the area to make sure that there were no bears in the area. They said that when an attack occurs, it's because the bear's often hungry, young, and unwell. Or you're a snack and it's a bear.

You know, there's just that, right? I mean, the hungry part, that's kind of what it is. You know, let's see here. Men are more likely to have financial secrets than women, says a study. I think I believe that. I think maybe. I don't know what kind of financial secrets, but they said this survey only looked at 220 Americans, and they said that 77% of men have more financial secrets than compared to women, whatever that means.

Stick with us. We got a lot more next with the latest with the penny case, cabinet picks, etc. A black rifle coffee company, look, I love their coffee because I'm really picky.

And you can send your guns to me. Yes, I am Ukraine. You can send them to, I am Ukraine at one Ukraine drive in Dallas, Texas. That's where you can send them. Let's make some up. You can send them there. I'll take them. I'll take the guns.

Go ahead and give me all your guns. Canada. Go ahead. Give them all to me. I'll take them all. I'll take them for you. That's right. Yeah.

That's all right. right yeah it'll be a ban there i can have them here it's totally fine for ukraine and for me crane oh that's right ukraine and me crane that's right well i mean for ukraine but me crane me crane too we'll send them to ukraine me crane too hello all right so the daniel penny deliberations apparently so the two counts uh lorraine out of this too the uh the uh the jury because they have a deadlock jury and they said that the judge said read them the Allen charge to go back and be flexible is the mulling letting the DA drop count one told the jury to consider count two hmm hmm so how are you not guilty on count two if you've got to

throw if you're being told to just throw out count one legit question how does that work La la la. How does that work? How, wait. Well, so you're, you're, the first count that's related to the second count. Because remember, it was, what was it, second degree manslaughter or negligent homicide? So, eh, now, he didn't mean to, he didn't mean to kill him. So we've got to throw that out.

So then how do you not throw out also? So he just, he was aware and he killed him anyway. What? Yeah, how does that? What does that mean? That doesn't even make any sense. Oh my gosh. So I don't, this is a poo show.

Isn't it? So they said they couldn't agree on the top charge. And then the judge is like, just keep delivering. Just a, just keep doing it. Just keep deliberating. this is really a mess. And when he said the Allen charge, so the way that I understand the Allen charge

is that it's instructions, so it's instructions that are given to the jury that encourage them to make a, to come up with a verdict, to determine a verdict, agree on one. And the Allen charges, they, sometimes they,

the last time I heard of something like this being used and I'm pulling up something to make sure I'm accurate on this is because isn't this where a lot of pressure can come into play and that's like what you don't want to happen with a jury they some say that they can overly pressure the jury to change their opinions by by and so states a lot of states don't allow Allen charges federal courts can use them but not every state allows Allen charge

and that comes from this case, like back in the days of your, like Allen v. U.S. So the Supreme Court ruled that you can't allow these in the federal court, but they're not allowed in every state. So that's interesting. So these two charges, I still don't understand how you can throw out the first and then not come to a not guilty verdict on the second. because the jury wanted instructions, the prosecutors had to prove that Penny acted

with such a degree of recklessness and that constitutes a criminality. And I don't know how you, if you find the defendant not guilty on count one, I mean, you definitely, I mean, I just don't see, this is just so dumb. This is so dumb. This is such a clown show.

Count two was the lesser charge. that was negligent criminally negligent homicide and that carries four years in prison

and so they were told to you know think go back over count two at least so I I mean manslaughter second degree manslaughter

again I just don't see how you don't come out with a not guilty on the second one on the second charge we're going to come back to this

and follow it it continually because this is just it's self-defense. Your self-defense is on trial in this Jordan in this Daniel Penny case. It's just wild to me that I don't know. That's just super wild.

Now, in addition to this couple things. Did you guys, by the way, see Joe Biden at the Rock, was he at the Rockefeller tree? He was at the tree lighting? I used his photo. It was on

are, it was, yeah, it was this this morning's headlines. His hair, he just doesn't look, I don't think he cares anymore. He was there and he just, he looked like the ghost of Christmas past. This is what he looked like. Doesn't he doesn't look,

he doesn't look so great. And you don't hear anything about Kamala Harris except for the six figures that we talked about that last hour that she spent. Juan's showing you the picture. He's, it's like a scary Hallmark movie. His hair's just crazy.

and apparently he looked at the press and yelled at them why are you still here he apparently yelled at the press why are you still here yeah get off my lawn I just feel like he didn't care that's that's Biden

just the other day well I mean it kind of does I don't know that mask they really didn't fix the hair they didn't fix the hair on that mask oh my gosh you and some of my family You're not, you all know a lot of talk. So I have a great aunt who sends me,

I don't ever check Facebook messages, but she lives on Facebook. And I get it because she's, you know, that's like where she can, that's the hip place for her to plug in. And she'll message certain things. And, like, did you see this story? This was like a year ago when she was first,

it was like, did you see this of the masks? He's wearing, he's wearing one of them masks. This is a person in a person, Biden mask. I'm like, no, it's not. It's not. I had a correcter. I was like, please don't post this on your Facebook wall. Please don't. Please don't. Please do you know she was wrong? How do you know she was wrong? You don't know that. What? You don't know.

Don't be friends with my family. You guys all work yourselves up. We already back channel, Todd. Yeah, if Kane, so at my birthday dinner, Kane sat next to my mom. And you guys like all worked yourselves up with conspiracy theories. No, we didn't get worked up at all. It was nice confirmation. Bias and good food. Now Juan's just playing picture pages with the hair. He's watching him in the monitor.

He's getting it all set up. I mean, it's crazy. Where are his earmuffs? I'm telling you, that mask just isn't fitting right. By the way, where, like you're an old dude, your wife didn't go put a hat on your head. Look, everybody else is all, but why would he not have a sock cap on or something? Right. It needs a scrunchy or something.

Well, I mean, at the very least, it's cold out, clearly. It's windy. He looks uncomfortable. I don't know. He's mean, so who knows? If you want some local reporting on this, the drive from my office to my apartment is eight miles, and they shut down the White House for this thing. Guess how long it took me to get home yesterday? Oh, my gosh. About an hour.

Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. Poor Steve. It's just a mess. It's a mess. Yeah, the headline at New York Post was Biden shocks with long wispy hair. Sorry, this is the White House. Christmas tree lighting.

His white billowy hair. Does that look billowy, though? Billowy is how they said. They described it as billowy? Yeah. The White House press corps was said to have been spooked because he seemed older and ghostlier. Is that a thing? Ghostlier?

I mean, I guess so. The ghost of Christmas present? Yeah. I mean, apparently. Okay. Well, I... Follow all of all. I mean, we're almost a January, guys.

We're almost a January. We're almost there. Now, one of the other stories that I have marked down, and this was in your prep emails, this is one of the reasons why you should be a subscriber over at Chapter and Verse. The LA police chief has joined the movement. They're all trying to get ahead of Trump to block illegal immigrants from being deported. This is after the AG of California and the governor have taken. taken similar defensive positions. They said that the department will not enforce these laws according to special order 40,

and that's a department policy prohibiting action related to immigration status. And instead, he's going to work with the Mexican and Central American Consulate offices to protect the immigrant population. Whoa, whoa, whoa, this isn't the immigrant population. This is the illegally in the United States. United States population. Very different. By the way, how ignorant to assume that by not differentiating, you're assuming that everyone

who immigrated here did so illegally. It's so ignorant. Why are Democrats so racist? I just will never understand why they're so racist. So he's going on. And then, of course, you have Los Angeles mayor, Karen Bass, delightful fish, who also saying the similar thing. And this follows Pritzker, the penguin from Gotham.

who made a big deal about we're not going to i'm going to i'm going to i'm what i'm going to watch us now all of the not all the democrats are in total disarray there's a small group of them that are super hyper focused on 2028 and people like this lapd chief and others like newsome and pritzker they're all going to be using this oh well we've got to we've got to uh we've got to uh gear up and fight Trump. It's going to be up to us to fight Trump and fight his policies. So all of these, like for an immigration is the first one that they're going to do. They're going to try to, their move around the argument is to persuade people that Trump wants to deport everyone who immigrated in the U.S. They want to conflate illegal immigration with people who come to the country illegally and act like

they're one and the same. And then they want to act like these governors are and these law enforcement officials are stepping up and we're going to protect these people who are here illegally from a lawful accountability. And that's going to be their engine to get them started towards 28. Oh, this is the Democrat response. And then from the ashes are the real Democrat leaders. That's how they're positioning this. Partners at Hillsdale, an actual educational institution.

They do such a good job of providing the education that is required to help maintain a free republic. And that's been their mission since they're founding in 1844 to embrace learning. character and faith and preserve liberty through educational outreach. And that's what it's all about. They're located in Southern Michigan. And it's a small classical Christian university college there in Southern Michigan. And the outreach that they provide extends beyond their campus in Michigan. So they have tons of resources online. And they're free for you to access. They have their deep dive educational podcasts. They have their free speech digest and primus. They've been giving out pocket constitutions. They have all kinds of videos that you can watch. And in addition to providing

the sort of education that's required to preserve our liberty, but they also understand that in times of increased division, the honor code that they have, students are expected and they are taught to respect the rights of others and, excuse me, live by principles of self-government. And so they've got a great campus. They have a great campus environment. You can learn more about Hillsdale at Dana4-F-O-R-Hillsdale.com. Learn what makes them so unique.

That's Dana4hillsdale.com. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man. I really want to play this video, but I'm told we can't because of the profanities that are in it. It's a four minute, three minute and 35 second clip. I mean, we're willing to take

the chance. I mean, we do know the, uh, you make it sound like we were restricting. Head of the FCC. We shouldn't have to bring him in on. They'll put any pressure on Brendan Carr like that. I mean, what's the point of having to CHIT if you can't call it in? You know what I'm saying? Right, but they're not for something like this.

Yeah, maybe you're right. But play the video anyway. So the 72 year old Florida man Dennis Winn. Walmart, Walmart drones keep flying over his house. And so he shot one as it flew over his property. and the drone I mean the drone was like right above his house

there was someone who said that they wanted a $10,000 lawsuit for the same thing and when they arrested him he goes I can't breathe is what he said that was just chef's kiss there chef's kiss but uh I mean the drone was right over his house he said he's had issues in his neighborhood with these drones flying right over people's houses in their yards it's not like they're flying like way up high And yeah, when they put handcuffs on me, he goes, I can't breathe. He, uh, the Lake County Sheriff's Office said they found a bullet hole,

bullet hole in the payload that the drone was carrying. And he said, you can't be flying your drone in, you know, in our properties. And he's got a point. I mean, at some point, you know, people have the expectation of privacy on their own property. So, I mean, he did, he, he said at one point, he goes, now they say, I hit it, so I must be a good shot. But when they put the cuffs on, he goes, I can't breathe. That's what he said.

I mean, this guy, he's a legend. I don't, yeah, I don't got a problem with him. I got to tell you. The officer actually started laughing when he said it, though. We've been fine. There's no issues. We're not, you know. I don't know if it's too tired, right?

Yeah. I can't breathe. I can't breathe. Dang. I mean, you know, I'm just saying. So I don't, what's wrong? I mean, if you're trespassing, you don't know if it's a threat. What if that drone's armed? That's a possibility. Nobody knows.

People have the expectation of privacy in their own house. You guys don't appreciate how old school I am. Like, I go back to the Wild West. That's how old school I am. Didn't even live there. I'm like, you're a drone in my yard. Pop. Right. If I see a plane flying over at 10,000 or 30,000 feet or wherever I happen to be.

I understand that. I get that completely. But if it's a drone that's hovering or something like that, how far up legally is my property? It's free ski. That's what it is. All the way to the... I see it. I'm going skeet, skeet, skeet. I see it. I want to go at it. I see it. At 5,000 feet? Like, do I, if I have a property, 5,000 feet above it, I can defend... Like, it was low enough that he could see it from it. his window apparently. I read another story where he could, that's how low it apparently was. That's a problem. If there's law that has a limit, like if it's more than 4,000 feet above you, then leave it alone. But if it's less than that, you can do something. Yeah, apparently. I guess so. I don't know. I'm just, you know, I got a couple of other, I got a lot more. Let's see,

a drunk Florida man slammed into a deputy's cruiser during a traffic stop. This guy's face is so jacked up, you guys. Fort Pierce, he's got a history of driving under the influence, this Florida man. It was about 11.30 p.m. this past Saturday. Fort Pierce Police tried to conduct a traffic stop, reckless driver. He wouldn't stop, and then

he hit the officer's car. His name is Perry P. Apples, and it looks like he got beaten halfway within an inch of his life and his mugshot. He looks like a garbage pail kid in his mugshot. He totally does. So they took him to custody and he's uh he he he said that uh yeah he was not uh he super slurring they found

open containers of alcohol in the vehicle all kinds of stuff and or rain sent this one a florida man bought a use tv and then when he switched it on apparently was in demo mode he bought it off a facebook marketplace for three hundred dollars turned it on and the poppies menu came on from the food chain and he couldn't get it off the poppies menu and he said i thought my friends were missing messing with me. It was like in demo mode or something. And it was like literally the Popeye's menu. He could not get it off the Popeye's menu. And he go, and he can't play the video because he's like, it's a blinking Popeye's menu. It's not blinking funny. His friends finally helped him get it off demo mode. I don't know why it was on Popeyes though.

Stick with us. Third hour next. Last night at the Patriot Awards, I think we got a clip. He was doing the Trump dance. And I'm sure, I'm sure you've seen that evolve over the left. As you look right there, how do you describe your husband's dance moves? Oh, this is very special and unique dance. It is, right? And I think a lot of people are copying it and everybody have fun with it. Is this how you dance? No.

Which part of the Trump did you give him any tips? Like in the beginning, it was low and then it was up high and now there's a golf swing. Nope, he's coming on his own. Have you ever done the Trump dance? You are Mrs. Trump. I did not. That is hysterical. It's like he's got string.

Amen. Right? It cracks me up. The first time that I saw him do it, I think it was back during his first term when he was campaigning for his first term and he did kind of a little thing and nobody really noticed it. I think, well, I think people talked about it and they laughed about it. kind of started every time he'd get happy he'd do it it was funny welcome back to the show i just like the dance because it's hysterical what was the video that um it was s nl where he was doing he was redoing that video oh my gosh who was the guy who was on nicolodian and then but acts like he comes from

the life of hard knocks school hard knocks steve who am i thinking of he did he did a he did a sketch on snl where he recreated drake and hotline blame thank you yes he recreated that video Hotline Blink. That's right, right, right, right, right. That's what he did. He did that video. And it was funny because that's when he really got into it. And that, I think, really is when it was officially born. And he was just, he was doing his Trump bands with his string, his invisible string. This just cracks me up. So welcome back. It's Friday. He was doing it to YMCA. I was reading the story about Victor Willis, the YMCA singer, who says, that he supports Trump

using the song because it brings joy to the American people. He did an interview about it. And he says he has no problem with it being used. But he said he will sue outlets who call it a gay anthem. He says, he said he

supports Trump using it and it brings joy to the American people. He goes, I decided to allow the president-elects continued use of YMCA because he seems to genuinely genuinely like the song. And so many other artists were stopping him from using their music. And he goes, if you were asked me today, if the village people would perform at the inauguration, I would probably say not because we'd be concerned about endorsement. He goes, however, because he's done so much for YMCA, he goes, the song's actually gone back to number one.

It's still number one today. He goes, so if he were to ask the village people to perform at life for him, we'd have to seriously consider it. But he goes, the song was never gay. And I'm going to sue people who say it's a gay anthem. I am dying. He goes, he goes, come January. And then he drops it because like, come January 20, 25, my wife and I, we're going to start suing each and every news organization that falsely says it's a gay anthem.

I mean, he like went right into it. It's hysterical. This guy cracks me up. But, you know, he's like, he's having fun with it. I always hate when people say that, like, these artists that go out, like, how dare you use my music? The way it works is they have to license their music to, that's how they're, that's how make more money off of their songs.

If they license it for different use, like you can get different licenses. Like what can, like for public use, there's like different categories. Publishing for, for actual production, for score,

you know what I mean? I mean, all, there's all kinds of different ways that you can attach your name to it. But it is, it's ultimately about ownership of your own music.

So by doing that, your licensing, you now have the license to decide where that song goes. And if you put it in the public, domain and allow it to be purchased, that's just what happened. Right. It's like similar to what?

If you're like your Nike and you're selling shoes, somebody buys your Nike shoes, they can wear them. Right. I mean, or you're licensing your, your logo out for certain. Yeah, I mean, that's. Right. So once they do that, you know, it's, yeah. I mean, you can't, you can't say for him, but not for him.

That's not how the licensing works. And that's ASCAP. so you have your ASCAP BMI ASCAP Yeah And CSAC So I was getting mad when I see these musicians go on and say He can't use our music anymore

Why'd you license it then? I think they do that as a way to get more attention for themselves So good on this guy Good on the YMCA guy It's a joyful song It's a very joyful song I gotta say So

Now I saw this story Over first thought I think this was over at Red State so you know how every president gets a presidential library okay well apparently Biden I don't know how that's going to work with him apparently donors are withholding their contributions because they're livid that he pardoned Hunter they said it was a quote abrupt clumsy pardoned pardon of his son in quote and so they're tightening their grip on their wallets couple of different outlets are reporting this, including Axios. You know, that bastion of conservatism. The, it's called, there's an article over at Axios talking about what's happening

behind the curtain. And they're saying, you know, 82 year old Biden will limp away from the limelight, widely disliked by the public, loathed by many Democrats who blame him for the twin sins of selfishness running again and pardoning Hunter. And apparently, and Politico mentioned this in another piece, some of Biden's own family are shocked at the vitriol being shown to him by their fellow Democrats. They said that they thought that there would be blowback, but not what was described as a, quote, wicked backlash because they are so damn blind and tone deaf. His family. Now you can see why Biden makes stupid decisions because he's surrounded by stupid people.

You didn't, they're shocked that that would get the backlash that it would, especially from other Democrats. You're shocked. Give him the paying attention then. So then the, I mean, he could have, he could have pardoned, you know what, if he would have pardoned Trump and his son Hunter, would that have helped? with other Democrats, though? Would that have made Democrats angrier? It would have given him cover in that it was

not so much personal for him, right? Maybe? I don't know. But I think all of the stuff for Trump will have to happen after he's president, so they still have to wait four years. I mean, Biden said his son didn't do anything wrong. Well, then why do you got to pardon him? For all, a blanket pardon for all this stuff.

Why do you got to pardon him then? if he did nothing wrong. We had a thing up about that on Instagram on my account. We put it up going over, remember how, not just him, but like Hakeem Jeffries. Everybody was saying, oh, no, Hunter did nothing wrong. Biden said Hunter did nothing wrong. Well, then now here we are. But they said that as a result of this, these people, because that's where your library comes from,

people donate, et cetera. and it looks like Democrats are not they don't want to donate to his library it might be a bookmobile they said that most Democrats a you gov poll which is kind of a lefty thing

that 64% of Democrats approve the pardon 64% that was a reversal of earlier sentiment but it's 64% of people that they had described as like Democrats, not even likely voters, registered voters, things like that. However, the other percentage, because the way that they did their polling,

it's like, you know, do you approve, strongly approve, strongly. This was just approve. The strongly approved was a small percentage. But everyone else was strongly disapprove. And the other thing that they're so angry about is, the fact that he left so long. Now, when they asked separately whether or not Democrats felt that they were angry that he stayed in the race too long, like 70% of them were angry, that he had, they had disapproved of how long he's, like, strongly disapproved to how long

he stayed in the race. So they're angry at him because he pardoned his son and they're doubly angry at him because he waited so long to get out of the race. And it made it doubly impossible for Democrats. They went in, they, they, they, they, they, I felt like they didn't want to waste a good candidate on a fool's errand by using their good candidate to replace Biden. But that's, this is Democrats own fault. They built Joe Biden. Joe Biden was always a jackass.

He really was, is. One of the meanest people. When I was growing up, and I wasn't really aware of politics like in the 80s, you know, I was in, you know, elementary school. And I wasn't. really aware. I think the first time I ever saw Biden was on TV during the Clarence Thomas thing. And I remember feeling bad as a kid in a family of Democrats in Southern Missouri for Clarence Thomas. Because Joe Biden in his line of questioning, he was so ignorant to him. And I was a little kid in elementary school watching this.

And it was on. And I just remember like playing around the house and it is on the television, you know. And I remember thinking, this guy is so mean. This old man is so mean. He's an old man even then. He's so mean. And that's the first time that I ever really saw him. And then as I grew up and, you know, he got through his, just become more aware of politics and you study history. I found out how ignorant he was with Reagan and in different hearings like that.

I would see him on TV over and over again. And he was always mad and hateful about something. He was always like super. super ignorant about something and just a really not a nice guy. And I say this because Democrats built him. They really did. They built him. And they only have themselves to blame. They can, you know, sit here and try to brush it off and, and, and, uh, accuse everybody else of this stuff. But it's, you know, it's ultimately they're the ones who built him. They made Joe Biden who he is today. So I feel like

I don't feel bad for them about any of this, Kane. I don't feel bad about any of this. Audio sent by five, Senator Federman says that the, he says that Hunter deserves a pardon because it was politically motivated. I disagree on this. Listen. Well, I think, I think it's undeniable that the case against Hunter Biden was

was really politically motivated. But I also think it's true that the trial in New York for Trump. That was political as well too now. It's that. In both cases, I think a pardon is appropriate. And I really think collectively,

you know, America's confidence in these kinds of institutions have been damaged by these kinds of cases. And here's the thing. The Hunter Biden case, the pardon, wasn't just for one thing. It was for his tax issues in California, which he's

guilty. I mean, I mean, for crying out loud, that had nothing to do with politics. The family was switching money around to their different shell companies, and the amounts that they were moving triggered the banks to investigate. So that had nothing to do with politics. That's standard operating procedure. The gun charge, that's not politically motivated. You know what's been politically motivated is stripping FFLs of their licenses over grammatical errors because you're looking for any way possible to shut down retailers. That's politically motivated.

So you can't just say that all of the things that 100s,000. Biden is being charged with. They're not even remotely all the same. They didn't even start remotely all at the same time. Oh my gosh. Like the bank thing, that was like even before the laptop. That's how shady this family is. So no, it wasn't political process. It was not all political prosecutions. None of it was with Hunter, really. It really wasn't. The New York thing to take an expired misdemeanor and attach a mystery charge to it to falsify its elevation to a federal charge is asinine. That is political. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. So apparently two Delta flight attendants failed a breathalyzer test right before an international flight.

Do they have to take breathalizers before they? Yeah. Really? I mean, they're not flying the plane. They got pulled after failing a breathalyzer in Amsterdam on Friday. They were randomly tested by Dutch authorities before a flight to JFK. and a female intendant had a 0.02, so it was seven times over the legal limit. Honestly, can I be real? Yeah, 0.02. Like, what's their limit there?

0.08 is the legal limit. So she's under the legal limit? They said that the female flight attendant showed blood alcohol. Oh, seven times over the legal limit. Oh, and a male, sorry, a male flight attendant failed by 0.02. Oh, gotcha. Okay. So honestly, like I like a lot of flight attendants, but some of them probably need to be drawn to offer butter service.

So I don't know if I'm, some of them need to chill out, you know what I mean? So I feel like I don't know if I'm for this. Yeah, I'm just saying, I got to be honest. So, uh, let's see. The, I don't care. Scammers are using bogus QR codes on parking meters. Yeah, I believe that. Why would anybody do that, though?

Like, don't just, don't just scan. stuff and do. But the FBI said that they're hijacking QR codes. They're placing stickers with codes they create on top of the real QR code. And then that directs you to fishing websites where people can steal personal or financial information. Just be careful about this stuff, right? Okay. Just be very always double check. Make sure it's not a sticker over a sticker. Stick with us. Make some common sense of the crazy headlines with the Dana Show podcast.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. You can listen to the radio program, coast to coast. We got the simulcast over at Channel 347 DirecTV as well as Rumble, etc. elsewhere. So this hit, I guess, that was carried out on that United Healthcare CEO. the guy was finally photographed

unmasked and it's wild because he was pictured unmasked because he was flirting with someone at that hostel and the girl with whom he was flirting asked to see his

face and that's when he did it and that's when the camera caught him audio son by 20 this is wild how this that's how they have like the photo of his face now. Listen to those. New York police released this photo of a man, seen lowering his mask, revealing more of his face than we've seen before smiling here. Our John Miller, who we're going to

speak to in just a moment, is told by his sources that the man pulled down his mask because he was flirting with a woman at the front desk of a New York City hostel that he was staying in. Pulled down his mask and was smiling and flirting with her. So, and I were talking about this on break because everyone says it's a professional hit. Is it though? I just don't think a professional hit, man, is going to be so dumb. First off, if there's a camera there, he'll see it. If he's a total pro, he's going to know that there's a camera there at the desk. He's not going to position himself in a way that the camera can see his face. And if his face is covered, he sure is all not going to remove his face covering to give

a photograph to the camera that can later be used against him. He's not going to be distracted from his mission either. I mean, that's where I'm like, maybe it's not, unless it's a really bad, you know, I mean, this is, it does not seem quiet. That was a dumb move. That was so, do you still think it was a professional hit or that their budget only got them this great value assassin? For real.

No, I don't think it was a professional hit. Just look, the weak grip on that first shot. would tell you that they probably haven't really shot guns that much ever. Yeah, that was also a thought, like the way that he handled. I mean, not that we're trying to be, but when you're not, we're trying to be like technical in that petty kind of way, but we're, that goes a long way in telling you about the background of the person who's doing, carrying out the criminal act and, you know, just gives you a little bit of insight in him.

Yeah, he was real impristed. And this is, I mean, that's why it jammed. I mean, when you're limp-risted and you got it, that's one of the number one ways that you can have your semi-auto pistol jam up on you is if you're not holding it correctly and you're not applying, you know, proper, you know, pushback. If your wrist is taking that and absorbing that, the slide should be doing that to actually engage the next round. Exactly. So he didn't really know what he was doing. And Steve was like, well, he does have a silencer. Yeah, but you can just, you know, that's easy to attach.

That doesn't, that doesn't, that's not. And it's not really, you know, silent either. But the way that he was, the way that he was handling his gun, his grip, his, uh, the fact that he would wear such an easily identifiable backpack also, isn't that backpack like a $300 backpack? Yeah. So you're wearing an ultra-boosy backpack that apparently was, is used by professional photographers.

And it seems like he went and got out, he got a hitman backpack. That's what it's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, he's, what that says to me. You know what I mean? That's what that's. I don't know. It's such a weird thing. How in the world do we not know anything else about this though? In broad daylight in Manhattan. They got his DNA off a water bottle. They've got showcasings with cryptic words on them. They got a photo. I mean, I don't know. I'm sure maybe that there's more that they just haven't released. Thompson apparently has estranged said that he had been receiving threats, but she didn't know the nature of them. And he didn't have security.

And the other people with whom he worked, who were attending the conference with him, said it didn't seem like he had a detail. So I don't know. Just wild. The whole thing is wild. Do you have any theories, Kane? No, I mean, the narratives that I see come out are plausible. But again, like you said, we don't really have any. concrete evidence to point to a real motive right here.

Who really knows? I don't know yet. Yeah. It's wild. It's a weird one. But the fact that they got his picture because he was flirting with a chick. To me, and then his grip and all that, he's not like a seasoned. He's not a pro. He's not a pro. So who hired this guy? Or what else? What other? I mean, this is this is going to be on like what unsolved mysteries or something one day isn't it i just don't know how you don't know who it is at this point but again and maybe there's

maybe there is there's i'm sure that there's a lot more to it than they're sharing but it's still very interesting i know lorraine brought up the the uh thing that denied defend depose on his shell casings. And apparently that was based from like a 2010 book, Delay, Denied Defend, white insurance companies don't pay claims. I mean, the most basic reasoning is this was a guy who got mad because they denied his claim and he was going to take action against him.

Right? It's very Occam's Razor. You know, the most simple explanation is usually the correct one, Occam's Razor. But I don't know. I think we're so used to conspirators. but this guy was not a pro and like I said his his the reason that his pistol jammed is because he was limp-rissing it and by the way when going to the range with people that is the number one

that's the first thing that you really focus on with people is their grip because otherwise you get all you got all kinds of malfunctions if you're not holding it properly and you're not you're not holding it steady with with a proper strength in your grip so that you're not taking that recoil and then get, you know, jamming up your gun. Or he's not the guy says Juan. That was the backpack, though, in that hostile, hostile, hostile video, right? That was the same backpack, that boozy backpack. I mean, that's what, I don't know, it's so weird.

Yeah, Juan's pointing out to two different pictures. I don't know if you can get them together, Juan and show them on screen side by side or not, but he's showing that the jackets actually are a little different in two of the different photos. Does that mean he wore a different jacket on a different day? Or is this a different person? I mean, the thing is, it's all still speculative, no matter how you slice it.

Maybe he had, like, some of the same jacket. I don't know. The whole thing is so weird. Yeah, so it looks like he's able to toggle back and forth. So we've got these are the jackets here. These are the pictures that were circulating originally. And then he showed his face, and this is the jacket that he was wearing. with his face so you see there now obviously the picture's lighter so it looks like the

could be a different jack i feel like there's not enough contrast in the earlier ones or brightness and there is to whether or not you can see those three photos one and is that thing on his sleeve there it looks like he still has the thing on his sleeve on that very right photo but i don't know still uh i'm not in charge of the investigation obviously and i don't envy those who are but it might be it might be a different you know he could have you know, changed his jacket. But that looks like the same backpack.

Yeah, it does. So, I don't know. It's all very interesting. It probably was, maybe it was a different jacket. It looks like that's a pullover.

Whereas the other one looks like a jacket. But anyway, long story, short. I don't know, maybe it's a guy who got his claim tonight and he's mad. I mean, they made movies like that.

It's plausible. It's plausible. But that's, the guy was getting threats beforehand. And see, that may be why we don't have any more information if he was receiving threats beforehand then obviously, you know, they're investigating all of that.

And they don't want to release any information to the public that could compromise the investigation or give up, you know, you don't want to give up any information to, that would potentially warn a suspect. You don't want the suspect to know if you're closing in. So I get it. I get it. A few other things to touch on as well to get you set up for the weekend as we roll towards that.

The, can we talk really quickly about, wait, I want to make sure I get all. this. I saw that the hawk to a girl was trending because she just really quickly. She got everybody to invest in crypto and then took all their money. Really quickly, Kane, explain it to us. That is the long, is that pretty much it? That's the long and short of it. Oh, oh, okay. All right. I thought there was nuance, but apparently. No, there's not a lot of nuance. Are you aware of any nuance to the story the way we just described it? No, people are just idiots. People are just idiots. That's a little heavy. So they

they got into she was coming out with a coin and then people bought into it and she just took she took their money. And that's it and so a lot of people were mad at her. What did you think? What did people think was going to happen? They were going to get some smart investment from a chick who was bragging about spitting on male

copulatory organs and turned it into like a million dollar like bad baby kind of you know gig. That is exactly. Like, come on, people. You deserve to be fleeced. First off, I hate all the, I hate the, what is it, the NFTs? I think those are the stupidest things I've ever seen in my life. It's so stupid. It's like simple.

It's like the Sims or whatever, right? It is so dumb. Stop buying stupid stuff that you don't need. Stop it. Stop buying stupid crap. Stop it. Who does like it? And then the crypto, you honestly thought you were going to be making a wise investment with a girl who got famous off of a joke about, you know what? Really?

I don't know what, what. Oh, you want me to go there? No, I'm joking, I'm joking. But there, there she is with the, uh, there's, look at the, see the green candles there? Yeah. Going up, up up. And then plummet. And then, yeah, there she took up.

So she made a, how much money do you think she made off that? A couple million. Actually, I don't know. Maybe 50 grand, something. Oh, really? Steve, do you know what the number was? Are you familiar with the number? but I don't, if you're putting your money in streamers, you probably have, you probably have bigger problems in life.

That's right. If you're, if these are your financial investments, you, you've got made bigger issues. You have way bigger issues. I just was like enthralled by the commentary on X. Can you believe? Yes, I actually can believe. My question is, why did you not? Stop it. Stop making dumb people famous and stop buying stuff that you don't need. You don't need it, right? Well, what? Those are important lessons for life. Oh, yeah, they are. Like, can I be honest, this Christmas? I'm like, I don't really feel like buying presents. Is that ignorant?

I've never done any more than three for my kids ever, because I'm like, Jesus only got three. You're not better than Jesus. So you don't get, look, unless you have more than three Majai come in and, you know, bring and rewriting history for the Lord, you don't get more than three gifts. And be happy, it's not just, some spices, you know, those, those were very expensive during the time. That's like the equivalent

of getting like a Tiffany box, okay? So anyway, I'm like, don't expect more than three. But I'm like, I don't like buying things for people just to buy them. And I don't like people buying things for me just to buy it. I hate that. I would rather not receive anything unless someone heard me like, oh, say, oh, she really likes this or that. And I'm going to get it. Or she needs this. I'm going to get, Otherwise, don't. Don't waste your time. Like, I feel like too many people focus on that going into the Christmas season, right? I think I'm going to start putting bows on things like the light switches. I mean, like, Merry Christmas, you got lights.

You know, Merry Christmas, you got running water. Kitchen sink. Right? Toilets. Like, yeah. Put, I'm going to put a bow on each roll of toilet paper. Like, Merry Christmas, you have toilet paper. Don't hit me up about how I say it either.

Shush up. I literally heard all of, I heard like three people at least out there saying, I'm sorry, what type of paper? Yeah, what was it? It's tolet paper. What? Shut up. Tolet. T-O-E-L-E-T. Tolet. Tolet. I can't, how am I supposed to say it? Twilet. How do you say foil? Foul? You do not say it that way. If I, if I'm paying attention and remember, so when I was a little kid, they put me in speech class because I had too much of a twang. I'm not even. kidding with you. And if I really, like, go back to my professionalism, foil, and that sounds so dumb. But if I'm just talking, it's full.

I'm not even lying. Seriously. Seriously. And same with like motor oil? Oil. Yeah. Baby oil. Totally.

I have to really stop and be like, mm-mm, no. Oil. Olive oil, even? Olive oil. Seriously? I have to stop and go, oh, y'all. all you people with your syllables you want more and more of them well all of that you need one that's the oh that's it the oi part that you need for toilet that's the that's the

long way it's getting there it's toilet paper toy toy like just toy can you say toy toy toy yeah toy a toy let that sounds dumb toilet that sounds like a plaything let what it's how it's pronounced it's toilet anyway put a bow on the toilet paper is what I'm going to do, right? Be like, Merry Christmas with every role. Every role is a Christmas miracle. Look. I think that's the only way my kids are going to get more than three anything. I just, you know, like appreciate, appreciate stuff. All right, we've got to get moving. Oh, I'm going to get hate mail.

Today's stupidity cane. Oh, boy, it is Senator Elizabeth. I am Pocahontas Warren. Laiwatha. Laiwatha, also known as Laiwatha.

This is what she had to say about Pete Hegseth. She doth protest too much. Listen to this. Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump's nominee for Secretary of Defense, thinks that women in the military should not serve in combat. He's accused of raping a woman and buying her silence with an NDA. He went to work events drunk and prayed on his men's employees. But there's a difference between being part of combat and then being part of

ground combat. And I talked about this yesterday. He has been very specific about it. Democrats once again are refusing to be so so that they can insinuate and play the sex card. So stupid. Folks that does it for us this week. I hope you all

stay healthy and happy. Have a wonderful weekend. I will be back behind the mic with you on Monday.
