In an interview with CBS News, House Speaker Johnson said on his first day in office, President Biden came in and issued executive orders that began this chaos. Did any of the administration's policies contribute to the record number of border crossings? What I can say is this. On his first day in this administration, the president put forth a comprehensive immigration legislation to deal with a broken system. That's what the president did. to deal with a broken system. We were just a couple of weeks away of three years ago that legislation that he put forward to Congress to actually deal with an issue, right?

And so that's what I can say. The president understand that there's a problem at the border. He put forth on his first day something to deal with that problem. And what we continue to see from Speaker Johnson and Republicans, House Republicans, I know Jackie asked a question about something that I said yesterday in May, and I'll repeat it, I repeat what I said yesterday in May, House Republicans decided to vote on a bill that would cut 2,000 border patrol agents. That's not how it works.

You guys wanted literally a slush fund and you wanted to support only like a fraction of what was required at the border. So you don't get to go back and revise this now. There's no going back. Welcome to the program. It is Friday, the first Friday of the new year. It is your most gracious hostess. Dana Lash here with you. and you can listen terrestrially all around the country.

You can also listen, stream it online, and watch the simulcast, the video component of the radio program, Channel 347, Direct TV, as well as Facebook and YouTube. And there's always discussion happening on YouTube. Okay, so a couple of, there's a number of things to jump in here, and I was, you know, I'm going to because I'm just, I still can't get over yesterday. the combined

sonic assault of Nancy Pelosi and Corrine Jean-Pierre telling us that we should just feel hashtag blessed by all the hashtag opportunitize that have been offered to us by the Biden administration. Kane, do you just feel the blessings?

Just everyone just feel the blessings, right? I know. The blessing of $7 for a pound of butter. I mean, it's just amazing. The hashtag blessed. really don't feel like that right. You know, it just doesn't really feel that way. So I'm trying to get over that crazy, that the double sound.

And then we have this about the border. Because I don't know if y'all been seeing what's going on at the border. I honestly think this should be our number one issue domestically. I really, I mean, just period. I'm talking about this in the United States. I really think this should be our number one issue. And I got to tell you last night, because I know they had like town halls and stuff last night. I was actually, I had my first ticked off moment of the new year, Kane. I was

p-oed, as one might say, because I had a bunch, I'm just going to come out with it. I had a bunch of neocon BS, and I'm using the phrase correctly. Let me explain really quickly. I mean interrupt myself. When I say the word neocon, I'm talking about the people who love philating the old dead narrative of Russian imperialism and it's the 80s 2.0. I'm not saying that Russia is our best friend. And I don't even like pillow-face-bic tyrant over there. I really don't. I don't care if he lives or dies. I mean, I would rather communism die a horrible death than everyone who represents it join them in that endeavor. However, I don't think that there, I don't think that what's happening in Ukraine is an immediate threat to United States interests. And there's a long history there

that predates even Crucechev and predates giving away Crimea, predates, you know, the expelling of the ethnic Russians in that area. I mean, there's a huge history that most of the people arguing in favor of sending your sons and daughters to war don't know about. So I really, there's several things that I don't do. I love feedback, except when I feel like it comes from people who aren't obsessed with the topic as much as I am. And anyone who wants to sit here, and tell us that we need to get involved in more wars. I'm just completely, I immediately write them off as irrelevant. So I see all these people, and I'm not talking about just people on social media.

I'm talking about like political consultants, operatives, influencers, you know, thought makers, all of this other stuff, online last night, arguing because Nikki Haley decided to take a swing at Ron DeSantis over Ukraine. Now I'm sitting here thinking, have you all seen the border? Have you all seen what's going on at the border? Kane, what was the record for December? Just the month of December. More than $290,000.

I feel like Kermit, the puppet, the Muppet when he's like being, you know, yeah, plus, 290 plus just for the month of December. Mm-hmm. Yeah. I just, and we have these people

arguing with us about Ukraine. Now, don't sit here and be like, Dana, you know, we can call two parts with one stone. You know, Dana, we can do more than one thing at a time. No, not with this, we can't. No, when your southern borders open and you got literal towns of people, you have cities of people coming across every month. Cities of people.

You have no idea about the backstory of these people. Hell, they didn't come in legally. Half of them come in on, I mean, the documentation is not even legit. You have no clue. I love this kitten and sunshine world that these people live in. it's not a big deal. I mean, they're just looking for work. There's a point in Ricky Jervais's newest stand-up routine where he's talking about illegal

immigration. And this is a big thing in Britain right now because you're a racist, apparently if you think that people should come in legally, right? Just, you know, in an orderly fashion. It's like me going to the Bahamas and just, you know, trying to just enter illegally and then calling them all racist for denying me illegal entry. I mean, it's the same thing. So he's, you know, he's, he was going through this whole thing.

I'd play it for you, but we'd get cited because YouTube sucks. But he's going through this whole thing. And he's talking about how, you know, he's told, as we all are over and over again, well, you know, people are coming in. They're seeking a better way of life. They're seeking all of this stuff. And, you know, it's women and children. And he's like, you know, and then they, they, we have dingies that pull up. And it's just, you know, oh, it's just you lads.

All dudes. All dudes. It is a, I mean. it's cities of sausage fest that come across the border every single month. Oh, just you lads then, is it? Well, come on. That's exactly it. So, no, when you have that number, that amount coming across the border every month, no, you can't kill two birds with one stone. I don't give a rat's backside. I don't care what? I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. That's the number one issue right now. That is the number one issue. So I took a red's back side. I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. I don't care.

So I took, I got a little of a cleft when I saw Nikki Haley going immediately starting in on Ukraine. I'm like, lady, have you seen the border? Have you seen what's happening down there? Did you see the number? You didn't. Let me pull this up. Kane, I feel like we're missing a business opportunity here. Let me pull the story up.

I should have had it at the handy. I didn't have it coming up until next hour. Do you know how much the cartels are making at the border? I know it's a lot, but I know it's a lot. I don't know what the number is, though. Oh, my gosh. So, you know, trafficking people, that's the big business now, cartels are making $32 million a week.

What? Washington Times. Oh, yeah. The smuggling cartels are making $32 million a week for bringing in illegal immigrants. And this is just, just one, 245 mile stretch of it. the border. This is data from border patrol. This isn't, you know, Republicans sitting here trying to make stuff up. This is border patrol data. Border Patrol, let me tell you something about border patrol. God love them. They don't give a back. They don't give a rights backside who's in

office either. You know who becomes their best friend? Person who shuts a border. Person who allows them to do their job. Helps them to actually help do their job of protecting American citizens and protecting the border. That's who they like. They don't get in. all the politics. They're right there. They're literally the tip of the spirit. They don't got time for all this other fluff. Just shut the damn border. Thirty two million dollars a week. That's just for one, 245 miles stretch of the border. So, Kate, what are we doing here? I mean, I'm feeling like there's a business opportunity. How is this not a message of crime pays? Yeah, crime does pay. I mean, I, hell, I got guns. I got all kinds of stuff. Like, what, you know,

good heavens in your i mean you're white adjacent so i'm confused as to which half is offended yeah i know you're like probably like inner turmoil 24-7 you know pray for you hashtag blessed but that's that's pretty crazy this is these are border border patrols actually put figures out like this before and the left just is like what i don't see anything here i don't see anything i don't see nothing 32 million dollars a week do you know what i could do for 30 with 32 million dollars a week I could literally ruin all my enemies. $32 a week, I would engage in lawfare, and I would have so many motions and processes

that my enemies would go bankrupt, just trying to afford the legal bill, just to even make it to discovery. And yes, charities and all that stuff. Wait a way to where I'm forgetting myself. Charities and church and blah, blah, blah. But yes, I feel like Steve Martin and S&L and all the little children of the world joining hands and singing.

All that stuff. But you know how many lives of bad people that could ruin Cain? It'd be amazing. Like media matters would have nothing on me. I would ruin so many lives and just gleefully so. And you said that's a week? A week, dude. And that's just one 245 mile stretch of the border.

That means there's a lot of other stretches of the border that... It's like more than a hundred million a month. I've got the brains, you've got the looks. Let's make lots of money. I'm just saying, right? That sounds like an opportunity. We're really... We need to think of a...

I mean, well, we can't really incorporate it. I don't know what we would call our vinger. You just get a bus down there and, you know, fair. And again, you're white adjacent. Everyone thinks that I'm whatever they want because my background's so muddled. So it just, it'll work. It'll work. We'll pull it off.

I have faith. Capitalism. Wait. No, but I'm telling you, that's just one stretch of the border. They're making so much money. So I'm watching all this stuff last night. And I see, oh, man. And there's just times, I really try to have a lot of grace.

I really do. And not a lot bothers me. But sometimes I'm just, you know, mom's going to pull the car over. And I'm going to reach back in the bag seat. And I'm going to whip you to death with my flip flop. I'm going to just take it off, drive the car, take off my flip flop and whip you while I'm driving. I mean, it's that, you know, it's like at the end of the day, you got a lot of stuff going on. And I'm watching this stuff.

And I've seen all of this play out. And so she tweeted, and we're going to talk more about this. she goes quote Ron thinks supporting Ukraine is not a vital U.S. national security interest. He couldn't be more wrong. A win for Russia is a win for China. And I just retweeted it and I go, because it isn't. Oh my gosh. All of the, and I'm correctly using the term, neocons came out and immediately were just, what? Crazy. So we're going to talk more about this. We're also going to get into some of the latest that the jobs figures. That owl is still in my attic. So just to let you guys know, I have been vetoed because my husband says he has two votes in this household. I'm not allowed

to touch his power tools because I drilled through a wall once. I don't know. Uh, and it's honest mistake. And I was like, well, let's build a little owl door because owls, I mean, he's a sizable little screech owl, right? And he can't like scooch himself down and he, I mean, it's just, apparently we got a hole in the attic. And my husband's like, you know, possums can use doors too, Dana. Can they though? I don't know. Like, Do I build an owl house? How do I do that? Do I need to go get some carpentry items? You know, and do as Jesus would have done? I'm going to build this owl a house. I don't know. I mean, he's up there sitting on our posable dummy box. That's like apparently his favorite place to roost because everyone has a posable dummy that they just randomly leave around the house to scare their friends and family.

So I don't know. I mean, we did name it. We do have a name form. So I've got to give you updates about that because next to the border, that's, you know, one of the most important issues. The virtue signaling has come to roost. As the U.S. reaches its highest level of illegal border crossings ever recorded, are leftist may are still calling their city sanctuary cities. Now that the problem is visible, these cities are on the brink of collapse. Check out the watchdog on Law 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.

Well, guess what? And I don't want to make you fee I do. All the you people out there who are like, I'm just going to have three. some oat milk. It's so much healthier my oat milk. Guess what? It's not. Nutritionists are warning against the trendy oat milk. One cup, they said, check

this out. One cup can literally have more sugar than two crispy cream donuts. Dude. They're like, it's packed with sugar carbs and oil. Yeah. I mean, just either drink milk or don't. Don't be like, I'm going to have like this milk substitute

because it's usually worse and it works to the opposite effect of what you're trying to intend. So they're saying, look, it's not, it contains more fat and sugar than actual regular milk. And you don't even get the calcium that helps your bones. You don't even get that. So just either drink regular milk. If you're lactose intolerant, I'm feeling for you. But at least you have an excuse.

Everyone else is posing. Come on, let's be real. Come on. A mob of 100 looters smashes through a Compton bakery. And, I mean, now AOC can literally say they're looking for bread. and trashes the store after a street takeover. A bakery. An illegal street takeover.

It was at 3 a.m. They went to Ruben's Bakery and Mexican Food. They got into the store. A white key abacked into the front doors. So that's how the crowd was able to get in and just like pillage their way through. They picked it clean. They picked it clean and ran out with everything that. I mean, that guy's life is ruined.

I was like a convenience store and bakery. And they took everything this dude had. Everything. They picked it clean. But hey, you know, I mean, it's this Restortive Justice and stuff, right? That's just unbelievable. Stocks, bad start to 24, has forecasters on edge.

When are they not on edge, though? They're the most tweaked people I've ever seen in my life. They're saying the S&P 500 dropped January average returns for the rest of the year shrink. They're off to a bumpy start, and proponents of the January barometer are hoping for a turnaround because they think, according to Wall Street Journal,

that the market's performance in the first month of the year sets the tone for the rest. Boom, boom, boom. Revolutionary nanodrones. And I've read about these before. They're targeting and eliminating cancer cells. So in South Korea, researchers have been looking at this cutting edge method to treat cancer using these little nanodrons. And they specifically target and destroy the bad cells.

It's kind of interesting. Science. We've got a lot more on the way. Stick with us. Our partners, our friends over at Caltech, the P15. This should be part of your EDC. If you're unfamiliar with the P15, it is the lightest, slimmest, double-stack, concealed carry 9mm on the market, at 14 ounces unloaded, hold standard capacity of 15 plus one rounds. It's 15 one chambered.

Tritem and fiber optic front site, fully adjustable fiber optic rear and strike or fire reliability and nice trigger. So there's two different versions. You have the polymer and the metal version. The metal version has a really vintage look and feel. It has these gorgeous classic wood grips. Very comfortable. Same great modern side. Same great trigger. The same capacity. And the polymer version has gator grip texture. I mean, they're both awesome, awesome, awesome handguns. They're both gorgeous. Give both of them. I mean, why not? It's America.

For public safety and self-defense, P-15 should definitely be one of your concealed carry go-toes. Lightest, thinnest. And I like that particularly because, you know, ladies carry a little bit differently than dudes. Learn more at caltechweapons.com. That's K-E-L-C-Weapons.com. Tell them, Dana sent you.

posted daily from the Dana Show. What it means is bringing it to a situation where Russia is in a box and you're not having wars break out to Europe. That is our interest in this to not have larger conflicts. And I think part of the problem with some of the people who always want to get us in deeper in these conflicts is you run the risk of an escalation. I can tell you this as President of the United States, American service members can take this to the bank, parents of service members.

we are not going to send U.S. troops to fight in Ukraine. But what about U.S. weapons? That's awesome. And we shouldn't because we don't have any interests that need to be protected over there. Welcome back to the program, bottom of this first hour. Who, boy. So I was telling Kane, I had every, you know, turd on social media. Like, bop, bop, bach, at me in the, because I had retweeted Nikki Haley and I had added a little comment.

And I'm very, I'm not anti-war. I'm anti-stupid war. I'm anti-thinking that you have no other option and then just going full Lindsey Graham all the time. Well, I guess we'll have the wars. I just don't think that Lindsey Graham represents the entirety of the thinking of the Republican Party. So I'm, you know, I was looking at this. I retweeted her last night because I, let me pull this back up. She says, quote, Ron thinks that supporting Ukraine is not a vital U.S. national security interest.

He couldn't be more wrong. A win for Russia is a win for China. Who boy. So I retweet it and I said because it isn't. I mean, it isn't a vital national security interest for us. It's really not. I mean, it's, it's this idea that there is this Russian imperialism move is can I, I don't want to be unkind, but it's dumb. And I've had Haley on the show and she said, well, Russia's concerned, you know, with NATO on its doorstep now, et cetera, we've got it. NATO's been on its doorstep. I mean, hi, the Baltic states, they've been on, people not know geography. You don't have to be from the area to know that there are countries called Estonia

and Loviet. You know how I know Estonia, by the way? What was that movie with Pauly Shore and Brennan Fraser? Insino Man. Because remember the lie they made up about him? He was from Estonia. He was an exchange student from Estonia. I was legit in junior high and I learned all about Estonia because of that movie. I am hands to sky. That's back when movies were good, dude. Also, Gen Z, you have nothing on the lingo of Gen X, watch and see no man. So, long story short, the Baltic states have been on literally NATO countries have been on Russia's doorstep. And I had somebody who was trying to tell me, oh, the Russian rubles so strong right now. It's not really, it's not. Here's what needs to just

quick, I'm not going to sit here dive into the economics of Russia, but just to make it super easy. So back when, and this was, I guess, probably right when the United States decided to be stupid with domestic energy production, because we became a huge net exporter. Remember, we were outpacing the Middle East and the Saudis with us. And this was a, it was a huge issue. You had a lot of countries like Germany. Germany was very, very dependent upon cheap, dirty Russian gas. You know, we talked about the Nord Stream pipeline or the Nordstrom pipeline, if you're KJP, literal things she said. But gas prom, all these other companies, you know, they wanted to really use energy as a way

to help control Europe. And Ukraine had always had the protection being that it was an energy adjacent country to Russia because they had one of the first pipelines that went through Ukraine. And so they always had that protection of being part of Russia's energy infrastructure. And then that was one of the other big reasons why Russia's, wanted to get this other pipeline and kind of bypass all that, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Long story short, when the United States was making some changes with domestic energy production, all of these other countries, we talked about this endlessly on the program.

We also talked about it with Stephen Yates. We need our European and NATO allies to be able to rely on our energy. They were paying for it. We were making bank on it. I don't know why there was this. And it does no damage to the environment for us to continue being net exporters. But you have Democrats who, apparently, wanted to reduce our security and standing in the world so they made this decision through

the Biden administration. And there for a bit, you have Russia's rubble had a little bump. Because, and it was temporary. It was something that everybody acknowledged was temporary. It was temporary. And especially with sanctions on Iran, et cetera, it was temporary. Just towards the end of the year, they hit a 17-month low against the dollar. The ruble did. Because of sanctions and a slump and export revenues. very carefully, and we've talked about other countries providing energy, very slowly and very carefully, other European nations have been shifting away from the reliance on dirty Russian gas and looking elsewhere. And that's all a part of, it's geopolitics and energy, but it's also a part of security,

because you don't want to enrich a decaying geopolitical foe. And yes, decaying is the proper attribute for them. they are not this big imperialist power. Hell, they couldn't even take Kiev. They couldn't even take it. So there's no way in the world they'd go to toe to toe to with NATO. They don't have the economy. They don't even have the manpower.

And their currency has lost over 40% of its value just this year alone or last year, 2020. And that's, so all of that was temporary. Their finances are under strain. So this idea that they're this big imperialistic force is outdated and does. dumb. It simply is. If they were going to make, they would have made a move a long time ago. This excuse that, well, it's, you know, they're on their doors. Baltic states have been on their doorstep. This is dumb. Inclusion of Finland, et cetera. They've always had weird relations,

Norway and Finland, and there's always been tensions, et cetera, et cetera. Go back to World War II. I mean, it's, I think that there are certain people who just parrot some of the stuff they hear Haley and these other neocons say, and that's just completely out of step with history. And I'm not trying to be unkind, but I don't have the time to sit here. tickle your jimmies for fear of hurting people's feelings. I just don't have the patience for it. It's not a lack of courtesy. It's a lack of patience. So I had a lot of people who are very, very upset with me in the comments about that last night. Oh my gosh. Now, you could make a better argument to me about concern for China than you could

Russia. Russia's on the way down. China's on the way up. Although their economy is in fits and tangles right now. But it's still, they are on and they are on an ascension as opposed to decaying like Russia. I mean, goodness, they're having palace intrigue right now. You have to have all these, Putin doesn't even, he has to be very, very careful and take all the, because he doesn't even have a total lock on power anymore. It's not like it was 20 years ago. So there isn't, there isn't, uh, I'm not, I'm not going to get into the history of the area either because that goes back to, but geez, that goes back of the 18th century. And before then, before Stalin was even expelling people so that he could say that this area was predominantly ethnic Russians, et cetera. I mean, there's the famine and everything else.

Yet there's a long history there. It's not going to be solved by a debate on social media. And it's not going to be solved, honestly, by the inclusion of the United States in a foreign conflict that doesn't serve our interests. Bottom line. It's not callous. What's callous is to expect everyone else have kids to clean up the world's mess that our sons and daughters and our husbands and wives and our parents should be the ones to have to lay down their line because of what just based on an ongoing tensions and fighting from decisions that communists made you know years prior and I and it's just always the cheap and easy it's always wore ink's first response

Oh my gosh, let's bomb it. Let's send this over. That's not a good, that's not good foreign policy. That's just warmongering. And I agree with DeSantis and others who say that this is not an issue that the United States should be involved in. If you want to help allies and you want to send supplies, that's one thing. But beyond that, no. This isn't like, this isn't like a proxy war. It's not. It's not. Vietnam 2.0. It's not any of that. This is land dispute between these entities. And there is a history there that a lot of people, I wouldn't expect people to understand or know. And I don't think that and I don't think it's fair for politicians to sidestep that and act as though that's not a big factor in what is driving this, the fighting. China's the concern. Good grief is China the concern. And they're aggressive. whether it's stealing intel, whether it's trying to disrupt shipping. And when you are talking about the export of goods and services, that becomes an issue. And because we stupidly allowed them to have a monopoly on antibiotics. We stupidly have allowed them to have a monopoly on rare earth elements

while trying to accelerate this country's dependence on electric vehicles, etc., without having the necessary infrastructure or even the materials required to build the infrastructure to make it a reality. It's one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. But that's the decision that Democrats have been making. And above all of this, we have the issue at the border. I was just telling you that cartels are making, what is it, 32 million a week? That's just from a one 245 miles stretch of the southern border with bringing illegal immigrants across. That's a huge issue. We have HR2, which is stuck in Congress. Everyone's debating it. And I don't know if we're actually going to get some satisfaction on that.

You have 290,000 plus people that illegally cross into this country for the month of December alone. So this is the big issue. And I think that that takes over everything else, any other consideration with regard to Ukraine. Now, this is plain, I mean, this is one of the big issues in 2024 as well. I also don't think, can I, I get it that Nikki Haley was an ambassador to the United Nations. And you got to go up and you went up and you sat in a Victorian. freak show, a masquerade where all of the tyrants of the world are allowed to participate and they are entertained and we run through this formality of diplomacy and nothing is accomplished from it.

Can anyone give me concrete accomplishments of the United Nations? What conflicts have they prevented? What issue have they not made worse by their involvement? I mean, you have human rights councils in which the children. Chinese sit on. It's so, it's, it's, it's theater. It's performative diplomacy without any substance. That's all it is.

It's so stupid. I don't consider that as making substantive major foreign policy experience. You are a part of a theater troupe. Now, this, uh, we're going to get into some of the other stuff with, uh, 20, 24 coming out. We got Iowa is, what, 10 days away now? Yeah. 10 days away. It's going to be very interesting.

And I don't know. I just am telling you to not trust a lot of the polling out there. Because you couldn't trust it. You surely couldn't trust it in 22. And you definitely couldn't trust it in 2020. And you definitely couldn't trust it in 2018. Be very careful with all this stuff. Some of the other stuff that we're going to hit coming up.

The latest with Job, You know, Gina Yellen says that we're going to have a soft nice loft landing. Everything's great. Forget about how much are eggs now? Golly. I don't want to talk about it. I'm going to get mad. I'm going to get mad. Don't let FOMO get the best of you. Stay in the loop and ahead of the curve by following Dana on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Like sands through the outer glass, so are the days of the United States. But besides that's hard, would be, I mean, look at what's happening with these anti-vax You know, I said this the other day.

I have been boosted and boosted and boosted, so I got it COVID. It does not prevent you from getting COVID, but you don't die from it. Right. And yet you have people like this Robert Kennedy Jr. who's going out there and attacking Fauci and saying that it's a bad thing to get the boost. He's not saying it's satire. He's actually believing it. I know, but this is fake news.

And that's another thing. Fake news, alternative facts. All of that started recently. And to that point, people need to check their sources. I mean, we only listen to what we say. I'm telling it. We tell the truth. I'm like, what year is this? It's 2024 now.

Are they still acting like this thing is a legit thing? Yes. Yes, they are. You know, you can just, I hate it when people characterize disagreement as attack. That is so weak. I cannot stand it when I see people do that. Disagreement, you're not attacks because someone disagreed with you. Oh my gosh. These broads. Oh my. He's out. there attacking it because he's disagreeing with his non-science. It's just so it's so bad. Stop, stop, stop,

stop. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lashire with you. Yeah, that's, I don't, I gladly don't watch that show. Gladly don't watch it. Yes, I know. I guess I hosted it, but I didn't. I didn't even watch then. I mean, I was on, but I didn't. Jenny McCarthy was the nicest person. She was Super sweet. Super nice. Barco Walters hated my guts. I was like and she wanted, I think she wanted it known that she did not like me. It was very, I'm always entertained by that. If someone doesn't like me and they want me to know, I just pretend to not know more because it infuriates them. Oh my gosh. All right. So some other things that we're touching on today, because it is, first off, you know, can you imagine

the egoism of this guy Hunter Biden has hired well, he's got, apparently it's being taken care of by one of his rich friends, but he's having a documentary made about himself, so they have cameras following him. They're making a, would you watch a

Hunter Biden documentary? No. They'd have to give out cocaine just to make people mildly interested in it. But it's that you got, you know the guy who was in the the sugar, oh my gosh, Juan, Juan goes, is he naked? Stop it. I don't know. I actually don't know. One of the sugar bros, Kevin Morris, he's a Hollywood lawyer who paid off Hunter's debts. So he's the guy who apparently is the, who's facilitating it. They're trying to rehabilitate his reputation.

Why? Why are you trying to reeval? It just looks so tone deaf. So we're going to, we're going to get into that. We got the latest on jobs numbers and how the administration's trying to spin. and a lot more. Stick with a second hour of the Dana Show. Just moments away. New York City has and will continue to do our part to manage this humanitarian crisis. But we cannot bear the course of reckless political ploys from the state of Texas alone. Today, our administration filed a lawsuit against 17 companies that have taken part in Texas Governor Greg Abbott's scheme to transport tens of thousands of miles of miles of miles of migrant to New York City in an attempt to overwhelm our social services system.

These companies have violated state law by not paying the course of caring for these migrants. And that's why we're suing to recoup approximately $700 million already spent to care for migrants bust here in the last two years by the state of Texas. Governor Abbott's continuing use of migrants as political pawns is not only chaotic, and inhumane, but makes clear he puts politics over people. Today's lawsuit should serve as they want into all those who break the law in this way. See, political pawns, using illegal immigrants as political pawns, is only acceptable when elected leaders of sanctuary cities get to say that they're sanctuary cities,

but don't bring none of them people here. Don't you bring that on me? Then it's okay. Welcome back on the show. top of the second hour, Dana, I'll share with you. That was New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who's suing to recoup the cost. Cain, can we sue two to recoup costs?

Texas, Arizona, New Mexico. Yeah, we all should sue. Yeah. Because I think that we've paid a heck of a lot more. I mean, I'm just kind of looking every year annually. It's $13.4 billion a year, according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform. That's just Texas.

That's just how much Texas taxpayers pay. 13.4 billion a year. Can we sue Eric Adams and all the Sanctuary City people to recoup our costs? I feel like we should. We'd be suing the federal government, I think. And we can maybe send an invoice those? I feel like I want to send an invoice. 13.4 billion, please.

Pay up sucker. Welcome back to the show. Top of the second hour. Dana Lash with you. Listen coast to coast. You can stream the radio program. Watch the video component of the radio program. Channel 347, Direct TV, YouTube, Facebook as well. Yeah, I, I, uh, that lawsuit and he's going to try,

we talked a little bit about this yesterday. His goal is to try to do this, I guess, remain in Texas. He wants to force a remain in Texas kind of thing. So he's suing these bus companies to stop the transport of illegal immigrants from Texas up to New York. Remember what he tweeted? Like, didn't he say, like, we should protect immigrants? Yes, they're going to remain a sanctuary city under an Adams administration. Didn't he tweet that when he was running for mayor? What, wait?

Kane, what is the sanctuary city? It's where you can go and seek asylum. If you're here illegally? Yeah, even if you're here illegally. Matter of fact, specifically they've said in California and other places, Sanctuary cities are specifically looking for those who are here illegally. So I'm confused because if they're a sanctuary city, that's what a sanctuary city does is provide the sanctuary.

Yep. So there, but he doesn't want to do that. No. Huh. You know what they should send some to Delaware to the Biden family, vacation home. Send him over there to that area. Honestly. I mean, he literally, let me pull the same.

up. I had this. This is back. This is a week ago. So he was actually previously, he had, was kind of tooting his own horn saying, New York City, oh yeah, we can support illegal immigration. We can totally do that. You know, all this was, you know, not long ago, he was bragging about this. Hmm. So the requests are coming to go to New York City are actually coming from the people who are coming in illegally themselves because they hear, oh, it's a sanctuary city. They want us to come there. They want us to go there. So 17 companies, the way he says it, Abbott's scheme. What about your scheme, dude? You're scheming right now. You're claiming to be sanctuary and you're expecting all of these other, all of these other areas to pay for it. The lawsuit is saying that the companies violate a New York state law because they're not paying for the cost of care.

for these people. $708 million. We should, you just deduct that from the $13.4 billion that we pay annually down here in Texas. I mean, we're not even talk about

New Mexico or Arizona. We're not even talking about any of those people, California, none of those states. None of those. The audacity of claiming that other people are using illegal immigrants as pawns

when you've used them as pawns to try to get votes is heinous and last. I think they need to keep sending them. Wasn't he sending them to New Jersey and then right by the bus that goes right into New York City? I think that's what he was doing to try to find the loophole. Good heavens. De-stabilizing the cities? That's one of the things that he had mentioned. He said, oh, it's Abbott's fiasco of trying to destabilize the cities. What are you trying to do to these border communities? You're trying to destabilize the entire southern sections of border states. Have any of these people bend down to the Rio Grande Valley? Have they been to McCallon? Had they been to McCallon? Had they been? to Del Rio? Have they been to some of these places where you have so many people, $290,000 in just the month of December, according to Border Patrol, cartels making $32 million a week, just in one 245-mile stretch of the southern border?

And the exploitation of the people coming across illegally, the very few women that do come across, there's another reason. Women, it's mostly dudes. It's mostly dudes because it's not about seeking asylum. They're not refugees. It's mostly dudes. And, And few women do it because the cartels exploit them and kids to such an egregious extent. So Abbott's like, you know, we're going to keep doing this until Biden reverse this course. I think he's, I think Biden may actually blink on this. There's they, they, there is no other way to, there's, there's, there's, there's, you can't have this many people coming across the southern border and have it be sustainable. There's no way to make that work.

It doesn't work in any, it would not. work in any other country. It wouldn't work in any, it just doesn't work. So I think they need to just keep sending them until there is, they, they change the course here. Make them own it. Make them own it. But to call it a scheme, the out there, oh, oh, you had to pay that many, well, pay us 13.4 billion then. Because we pay the cost incurred. And this is also according to Border Patrol, Federation for American Immigration Reform, a couple of others, including DOJ sources. The figures also include K-12 education, medical care, housing, nutrition assistance.

Some also, Texas is forced to provide in-state tuition, public colleges and universities. This is insane. Our veterans can't get help here. But yet, this is what's happening to people who enter the country illegally. I have some folks I know that we're becoming friends with and they're actually from Southeast Asia and the husband is in the Air Force serving. They love America. Oh my gosh, they love America. They want to be American citizens.

And the husband is serving in Air Force. And everything that they've had to go through just to get to this point. This has been eight years now. and then I read about people who are crossing the southern border and then they get all of these benefits and then they get to take advantage of in-state tuition. They get to take advantage of things that taxpayers pay for that they don't have to pay into. And then we just have to absorb all of this so that Eric Adams can sit thousands of miles away and proclaim New York City's a sanctuary city.

Where are the members of the press? Do you remember when Jim Ocosta got teary-eyed when he was talking about the Statue of Liberty and illegal immigration? Now he doesn't even meant. Now, where are all those people at? Suddenly, when you're met with the consequence of your own policy decisions, you want to ignore it and think it goes away? I mean, that's what's truly callous. This is the conclusion of what their policies sought.

And now that they're here, now that they've got what they wanted, they don't like it. That's what's truly callous. You got all these people up here. Now, you better deal with it. You better deal with it. There's no other way around it. So he's suing. just, I don't, we're going to talk to Governor Greg Abbott coming up next hour because,

you know, before he was governor, he was AG too. So I think he knows a little bit of something about this. And I'm curious as to how he thinks, I, I just can't imagine that the bus companies would be found liable for any of this because they're providing a service. They didn't create this policy. They didn't create any, they didn't create the conditions. They simply responded to customer service. It's it. They didn't create any of this. these conditions. That was Eric Adams. That was Joe Biden. Do you see how assinine and futile this is? They're going to create a condition of chaos and then they're going to try to punish people who try to alleviate it. They want you to suffer. They want, they want, I mean, how else are you,

what else are you supposed to expect? This is a way to destabilize border states, which have been voting predominantly red. This is a way to try to destabilize voter states or border states and red districts in those border states. You're just making, you're making Democrats, turning them into Republicans is what they're doing. Speaking of aliens, the only ones that I'm, I thought this is very interesting

that this all happened yesterday. Kane was the one who brought this to my attention. What the hell, what the hell happened in Miami at the Miami Mall yesterday? It was Wednesday night. Wednesday night, but it's all now, it's still trending. Yeah, there was a huge police response to what they reported as being a group of kids. fighting with sticks and fireworks.

And because there were like a hundred plus cop cars in that huge response, people were assuming because there were some social media accounts out there that were stating that they claimed they saw eight to ten foot creatures. Black shadow monsters. Black shadow monsters and just creatures with disproportionate lengths in their arms and legs. That actually trended. Yeah. And so obviously I got my tinfoil hat on.

and went down the rabbit hole. But everybody's got a phone, right? Exactly. And you're telling me the only video of claimed occurrence is the aerial footage that shows absolutely nothing? Yeah, somebody from like their 15th floor of a building. And that, other than that, all these people that have cell phones, because we know everybody upload stuff to World Star, that nobody got video of the supposed shadow monster? Yep.

Yeah, I don't buy it. I don't buy it. I don't. Yeah, you got to show, you got to show me them aliens. And I'm inclined to, you know, believe it. Just give me a little something. No, I, I'm not inclined to believe unless I see it. Right.

That's what I'm saying. You got to give me a little something. I mean, you got to have the alien, like, walk right up to me and be like, here I am. What? What's good? That's what I need. I might need slightly less than that. I dropped a meme for you that's completely germane to this entire discussion, by the way.

In Slack. I dropped it for you in Slack. I mean, I legit have to have an alien come up and go, what's good, girl? What's good? That's accurate. Before I believe it, before I see it. I need to be able to slap it and pinch its cheeks before. I'm going to believe it.

I might need slightly less proof. No, I'm going to need, I don't know, because anybody can be anything nowadays. You don't know. If you see body modifications, anybody can be anything. And I also pay attention to government siops too. Oh, I know you do. Yep. Yeah, I know you do.

A little too much. This could be in that realm, too. You never know. I mean, I'm more inclined to believe that it's a big foot gone wild. I mean, it drops right when the client. And I love the image. They're like, here's the image of it. And it's just a blurry thing.

I can't even tell what it is. It's so stupid. It's two people walking. And it looks like one because of their... We are not cool enough to have something like that happened to us. You know what I'm saying? Like shadow monsters don't even want to have anything to do with us. We get our feelings hurt over a damn pancake syrup.

Nobody wants to come down here and do that. there is not going to be a more terrifying, powerful being that's going to come down here and go, hey, let's hang. No, because we look moronic. We are stupid species. We are so dumb. We are really dumb. And that's why, no, I don't believe in any of it. I sure Zell wouldn't. If I was a shadow monster, I'd be like, I don't want none of that. That might be catching. These people are crazy. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick. Five. So the FDA's granted Florida permission to be the first state to import less expensive drugs from Canada. Florida estimates that it could save up to $150 million on medications

in the first year. Manufacturers and lobbying groups, of course, are expected to sue to block its efforts. But they said, nope, Florida can be the first state to import less expensive medicine. And people in the U.S. can make direct purchases from Canada. This is going to mean that this is the first state that can purchase less expensive drugs in. in bulk from Canadian wholesalers. So that's the big difference there. So that's all. I love more choices.

So apparently, I love this headline. Kane found this, and you can tell because everything that he puts on it is just loaded with sarcasm. The headline is polar bears hold secret to surviving frigid winters. Their fur? For real? Like are we all going to just ladies don't shave? No shave January. Sorry, guys.

They said that polar bears hold a secret to surviving frigid winters and weekend benefit. They said that textiles that mimic polar bear fur may be better at keeping us warm than down jackets. This is so stupid. Somebody actually wrote a piece on this. Are you serious? If I was running, the website does MSN?

So fur is warm? You're telling me that fur is actually warm? Is that what you're saying? This is crazy. So ground carp, aka deer, white tail. Car strikes deer sending it flying into another car and leaving one dead. This is in Maryland.

Maryland State Police arrived on the scene. They found a Nissan Ultima, a 50-year-old woman, had been traveling. A deer ran into her path, was struck. And then the deer went airborne and hit a Toyota Tundra traveling the opposite direction. That was the 63-year-old driver. The deer then exited out of the rear window of the Toyota. So just to let you know, the deer was hit, went into the air, hit another vehicle, went through the windshield, and then, like, ambled out and ran off.

That's one of the craziest things I've ever heard. Golly, be careful out there. We've got a lot more in-store. Immigration, the economy. Foreign policy. Stick with us.

I don't see all the revisions yet specifically, but the two-month revision and a combined form is minus, minus 71,000. Traders find these revisions very disheartening. Yeah, so of course it's disheartening because they have to revise it down. So they always, that's the thing. They think that you're stupid and that you don't understand that. But it sucks. There's no jobs being created. And the people that work, by the way, parcel delivery people, I love most of them, but you got a lot of them out there that are lazy, redacted redactors. Got to tell you. Thank you. You're welcome.

But this job situation is, I mean, it's a lie. I mean, this plus the idea that you're just, everything is so affordable and you're just saving so much money. It's a lie. Welcome back to the program. I said that because we always have, sidebar. We always have, like, great delivery drivers. And I always, like, have snacks and everything out. But we got, like, one driver who won't get fired.

We've got them on video, like, throw in power. packages over, throwing all, leaving stuff in the road, literally. Like, it's crazy. Just do yo job. So simple.

And they're like, oh, our bad. Like, you left it in the road and it got run over by a truck. Literally a package. Like, you just, like, throw it on the road.

And it gets run over by a truck. Like, you don't even, no joke. I'm like, why can't you just, like, put it on the thing? Porch is right there. So I'm a little upset.

Anyway. as you would be too, right? Because then it's a whole fight. I'm telling you. But hey, you know what? We've got all the jobs and everything's affordable, Kane. Really? Yeah.

You were telling me about this because you're particularly upset about the snow job that they're trying to do here. Yeah, because they do this every single jobs report. They come out, the news comes out on a Friday, right, and you get all this news. It's like, look at all the, 200-something thousand jobs created, right? or 190,000 jobs created. And then just a few weeks later, they're like, hey, we got a little revision here. It was actually negative the number. So, all right, thanks.

And that's what they do. So they shout the lie number as though it's great. And then they whisper to you when they're revising it all. And they know what's going to be revised down. It always is. It happens all the time. Yeah, they know that this is going to be revised. But they just want you to be distracted by the initial.

the initial count, which is never, you know. And then, oh, by the way, as you were saying, it's not really that. You didn't really get that much. It's not really that good. Not really that good.

I mean, I just, I don't think that that's, this is not a good thing, especially as he's going into, because tomorrow is, oh boy. Kane, what's tomorrow? Saturday?

Yeah, but the number. It's a big day to the left. That's right. The J-C. anniversary. I forgot about that. Or whatever it is. And he's, so Biden, I mentioned this, I sent this out to you, if you get my emailed newsletter, you will have this out because he's, we talked a little bit about this yesterday, but more details are coming out. So he's trying to make his whole, he's going to, he's

basically kicking off his campaign in earnest tomorrow. And he's going to Charlottesville and he's doing two speeches this week and he's focusing on the riot on the sixth which they say is an insurrection but if you copy and paste other people's work on attributed that's not plagiarism they they've got it crafted to where

he's going to try to couch he's going to frame his campaign relaunch around whether it's you know he's going to be in Valley Forge talking about fighting the British and then he's going to be in Charlott's he's going to try to use

and act like he's like Washington and Washington's Army. It's basically what it is. And these people are all the bad people. You are all the bad people. And in Charlottesville he's going to and they're also, he's apparently also going to isn't he making a visit to the church in which

that I'm not going to mention the murderer's name. That one dude went and shot up a church and he was allowed to purchase his firearm because they messed up and the FBI literally had to write a letter that's still available online saying that they was a paperwork error. Literally that's what was and that allowed him to purchase his firearm. And he was kind of a known entity already. Yeah, I know. But hey, it's like Republicans' fault or something. I don't know. So he's,

his campaign, if you thought you were already tired of the campaign season, just wait until Biden kicks off because it's going to be doom and gloom. Everyone's going to die. And you're not black unless you vote for him. That's what it's going to be pretty much. I think we covered all of that, right? Yeah. That's what it's going to be. I mean, he's dedicated in the entire kickoff to his campaign to all these tragic places. Yeah. There's a narrative afooten.

So they said he's going, this is how they have it. Let me pull this up. This is what they, this is what they were sending out to the media. So he's, they're so appalled by Trump's role

in January 6th. That's what, that's literally how they're starting this. So they're, they're keeping that, trying to keep that alive. And then they're going to say he's, uh,

putting the deadly assault on the Capitol. Yeah. was a capital police officer that shot and killed a non-hon woman that had an entire SWAT team behind her and it was all on video, but okay. In, he's going to focus on that. He's going to talk about Charlottesville. And then he's going to, he's doing a speech today at Valley Forge. And he's talking about the 2020 election and et cetera, et cetera. And the campaign officials say the venue is at because it's where George Washington's army endured a frigid winter in 1777 and 78. he's going to offer a contrast with Trump. He really wants Trump to be the nominee. Really does. So that's how he's...

Are you guys from what I just shared with you? Does it give you any insight on how to handle inflation? His plans for dealing with that? Does it giving you any insight on his plans for dealing with energy costs, jobs? No. Because that's all they... have to offer. That's literally all they have to offer. They have nothing else. Golly, we go. And then his son has the documentary cameras following him everywhere. You can't make this stuff up.

Yeah, is it going to solve the problem at the border? Nope. But that's the goal, though. That's the goal. They don't care about any of it. Speaking of deadly movements, trans Tifa struck again, the Perry High School in Iowa. It was so horrific. Took place yesterday that tragedy. And the murderer, whose name I'm not going to say, was identified. And his background, definitely, well, there's a reason why you're not hearing a lot about it, because he was another trans, militant trans activist. I was all over social media. He apparently made threats about it on social media and talked about trans issues and identifiable. identified himself as such. And the, he had, he was on TikTok posting videos about it. He killed a sixth grader. How many, how many more school kids have to die before the left decides to maybe stop

trying to militarize their trans Tifa people? Five other people injured. 17 years old. So he had a shotgun and a handgun. It was a pump action shotgun and a handgun. It was a pump action shotgun and a handgun. Now, this is why you're not hearing anything about this in the news anymore, because every single narrative that the left loves to run with was destroyed. There was no quote unquote assault rifle. It was a 17-year-old trans activist. And he actually took, he actually took video of himself in the school bathroom saying, now we wait. And the media was, some of the articles were, you know, he had been bullied and all of this stuff. I mean, honestly, sounds like it wasn't bullied hard enough. And nothing from, notice how you haven't heard anything

really all that much from the administration either. We played some stuff yesterday where in Corrine Jean-Pierre was saying, oh, we need to have a ban on assault weapons and a red flag law. How would that have done any of this? He was apparently a known entity because of behavioral issues, but he wouldn't have been able to buy his handgun legally anyway because he's underage. and he was without any kind of supervision. He's under the age of 18. And he was apparently militant trans activist. None of the stuff that they're talking about would have worked in preventing any of this.

But you're not hearing about it at all. It is gone. They are memory-holing this story. Memory-holing this story. Because that's how much they care about children's lives. They're not even interested in talking about. about how he was able to get access to the elementary school. I mean, you're going after a sixth grader.

I mean, the dude was in high school. A sixth grader was shot and killed. They're not talking about how did this guy get his handgun. They're not mentioning any of that. No, it's done now. They're done talking about it. It's not going to serve its purpose so they don't care. And that's what I meant those years ago when I said that media loves crying white mothers.

Because they serve a purpose. They serve an overall political agenda. The left loves to slap back at people and say, how dare you use X, Y, or Z as pawns, but they love using people as pawns. I've watched it happen in a very, very theatrically orchestrated town hall. Now, speaking of town halls,

they've had them in Iowa. They were having them in Iowa yesterday. There's another debate on the way. Oh, boy. And then more town halls. How many more town halls can networks have? Where's the R&C in this? You know, I asked DeSanta said yesterday.

I'm like, can't the R&C just say, hey, if you're going to do this and participate in this primary, you have to participate in the debates. And he's like, oh, the RNC dropped out of this. This is a network offering. The RNC should just hold everything to any kind of assistance, monetary assistance, should they win the nomination. They should step up and their, RNC's cowardice. It's so cowardly.

That's why everything is so slapfighting and petty and ridiculous because it's weak leadership. But everyone's terrified to say that because everyone, the head of the RNC was handpicked by Trump and no one wants to get. uninvited from Marlago. Oh, is it unpopular to say that? I mean, that's the truth of it. I know it because I talk to these people all the time. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man.

This is one of the nastiest stories that I've ever read. So a man is suing Dunkin' Donuts because he said that their toilet exploded. Oh. gosh, it sounds like a USPS office, says that their toilet exploded and that he was left filthy and injured. He's accusing them of negligence. And the lawsuit says, this is Winter Park, Florida, Flager County, Florida man. He said he, two years ago, a toilet exploded. Paul Kerouac was visiting the Dunkin' Donuts and it was January 6th, 22.

And he says, while he was there, a toilet in the men's bathroom, total. exploded and covered the bathroom in him in human feces and urine according to the suit he came out asked employees for the at the store for help cleaning himself and the employees told him they were aware with the problem with the toilet due to prior incidents so he said he required mental health care and counseling as a direct result of the trauma experienced in the restroom and it says that he got severe and long-term injury i just he wants damages over 50 thousand dollars and says that duncan did not maintain the toilet or warn him ahead of time i mean I mean, I think if you're going to be so stupid as to have an exploding toilet, you're going to be messing around with suits like this. You know what I'm saying? It's pretty simple. I mean, good heavens. That's how do you not, I mean, I don't even understand how it would explode either. That was just my next question. It's like, you're going to, that's a bigger problem than just a toilet it sounds like. I mean, yeah, I don't, I don't know. It just, this story from Florida, a Florida woman had two horses stolen from her.

And they were slaughtered for their meat. According to Miami Dades, who eats horse meat? I know some people do, but I mean, who? Why do you need to eat? Why do you need to eat horse meat? They said that the bodies of the horses were found near the home, and they appeared to be butchered for their meat. The investigation is ongoing.

If I found out, if someone kidnapped my, if I had horses and someone kidnapped my horses or my pets, imagine John Wick on every steroid known to man. though that is not an exaggeration. Oh no. And I, oh no. It would be, oh, man. Because John Wick started as a movie about a dog.

Let's be honest. This is the dog movie, right? Oh, can you imagine? First, how do you kidnap? How do you steal somebody's horses anyway, though? They're horses. They're like pretty big. How do you get, oh.

So they said that they, the owner of the horses told the NBC affiliate that she thinks that they may have been watching her to even know how to get a lot. the horses out and all this other stuff. And she said that, you know, they, she had apparently, she had been under some kind of surveillance or something. How does, that's just crazy. Now, speaking of pets, a Lakeland nurse was charged with poisoning her neighbor's pets. Oh, boy. 51 year old Tamisha Knighton, a licensed practical nurse at United Health Care at WellMed is charged with three counts of animal cruelty, one count of depositing poison in public after detective said she poisoned two cats.

a pregnant chihuahua. She also killed eight puppies. Oh my gosh. So they said that they investigated that, well, it was a pregnant chihuahua and her, I guess the puppies, her puppies. And so they said that it was disgusting to horrifying a heinous crime, et cetera. And then they finally found her. She apparently had threatened to poison. The pets were coming into her yard before. And they said that, oh gosh, it was just awful. The sheriff said that it made him really angry. And so she's, now being charged with that. I also think, again, in cases like that, you should allow the pet owners to be able to slap her around a little bit, just a little bit. You know what I'm saying? Again, I would not allow. I don't, I always, I'm very protective of my animals. I wouldn't let them,

they wouldn't be in anybody else's yard in the first place. But say if there was an accident or something happened, somebody did point, oh my gosh, there's just no amount. There's no limitation to the physical pain that I would inflict on somebody. There just isn't. Oh my gosh. Who does that to an animal? Who does that? What is wrong with you? Oh. All right. So moving on. Galee. We have something that, okay, here we go. You want a good one? This hardcore Florida woman saved her Rottweiler from an alligator attack. I did not have Rottweiler versus alligator like right on my bingo card for the first week coming back. But here we go. Gwen Cash was taking her Rottweiler Maximus out for a walk near her penbook prines home. And an alligator swiftly approach. her dog, she said it was within five minutes. She said, and that, she said the gator just came for him and was trying to go for her dog's throat. She said, I put my arm around my dog's chest. She got scratched. She goes, but I'm glad he didn't close his mouth. She saved her dog from the gator's clutches, but, and this is an older woman too. This older woman apparently out Rottweilered her

rotweiler in fighting this gator. So she's having the alligator remove. She's talking to Florida Fish and Wildlife and they're having a trapper come down to do it because she's like, look, if it came for that big dog, it's not going to hesitate to go after her for a kid, which is she's right or anybody else. So good on her. Stick with us. Third hour on the way. Texas Governor Greg Abbott will join us too. Would it be surprised you to hear the CBP sources say that currently they are releasing more than 70% of the migrants crossing every day and sometimes more than that number, higher than 70%. Would that surprise you? It would not surprise me at all. I know that. data and I will tell you that when individuals are released, they are released into immigration enforcement proceedings. They are on alternatives to detention and we have returned or removed a record number of individuals. You know what gets me is what Mayorkas says here, Alejandro

Mayorkas and this interview with Brett Baer is entirely different from what Corrine Jean-Pierre has said when it concerns the border. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. top of this third hour. We're going to talk to Texas Governor Greg Abbott about this here shortly. But if you listen to all of the stuff that she says, she acts like, no, no, no, it's not, there's not an issue at the border. There's not a, she's the one who downplays it all, at least Majorcas. And I think Majorchus is part of the problem, too.

She's like, no, it's just, it's not a big issue. Play this, play this soundbite. Because we have tons of audio here when Brett Beard was talking to Alejandro Mayoricus. And he was talking about, oh, yeah, they, well, yes, that's true. They are releasing 70%. Yes, there is a lot of people coming through. And then you have KJP. Now, keep in mind, Alejandro Mayorkas and Kri Jean-Pere work for the same administration, okay? Literally the same administration. They both answer to Joe Biden. I don't know how you can have two people who work in the same administration on such different opposite ends of the same issue.

Listen to KJP. This was yesterday. Listen. And as we're doing with CBS News, House Speaker Johnson said on his first day in office, President Biden came in and issued executive orders that began this chaos. Did any of the administration's policies contribute to the record number of border crossings? What I can say is this. On his first day in this administration, the president put forth a comprehensive immigration legislation to deal with a broken system. That's what the president did. To deal with a broken system. We were just a couple of weeks away of three years ago. that that legislation that he put forward to Congress to actually deal with an issue, right? And so that's what I can say.

The president understand that there's a problem at the border. He put forth on his first day something to deal with that problem. And what we continue to see from Speaker Johnson and Republicans, House Republicans, I know Jackie asked a question about something that I said yesterday in May, and I'll repeat it. I repeat what I said yesterday in May, House Republicans decided to vote on a bill that with cut. The fact that so many are coming, she's like, oh, no, it ebbs and flows. No, it doesn't. It's actually way worse.

$290,000 just in the month of December by itself. $290,000. She's asked, well, you know, it's not unusual to see it. Yeah, it actually is. That's why you have a record, 290,000 people who are crossing illegally just in the month of December. That's pretty unusual, I would say. That's severely unusual. That's why it's called a record.

Asinine. Just asinine. they are they both are so on the opposite ends of this story it is amazing to me so who's correct which is the right message here you see why the press is kind of you know scratching its head a little bit i hear somebody too mayorkas was then asked okay so how does kamala harris the VP how is she keeping the border safe this was a train wreck listen last thing shortly after taking office president biden tap vice president harris to address the root causes of migration how specifically has the vice president helped in your efforts to keep the border safe uh the vice

president has raised more than three billion dollars of investments in some of the countries of origin specifically those in central america that is a long-term solution that we remain dedicated to but in the meantime we are enforcing vigorously our country's immigration laws and are you do you know do you know know that people over the holiday season were, you had people who were illegal immigrants who were flown all over the country. They had a bag of belongings. Bill Malugian was reporting on this. They had a, their bag of belongings, had trans, had interpreters, probably non-government operators, their third party, these third-party contractors. And I was looking at this, some of the

reporting on this. They were saying that this is from the House, the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation. The investigation into this, they were talking about DHS and customs and borders. People

are just being flown all over the country. Everyone else is vetted by the TSA. But apparently the TSA, there's an exemption on who they, for vetting, and that's if you enter the country illegally, apparently. Like, alternative forms of identification,

et cetera, et cetera. They're just taking people at their word for their identities. That's unbelievable to me. Unbelievable. They had released, Border Patrol had released statistics showing they detained more people on the FBI terror watch list in 2023 than in the last six years combined. And they were putting all these people on planes over Christmas. Flying them all around the country.

Just taking their word for it for their identity. But Malugin said that he had footage. Tucson airport. Terminals full of people who entered the country illegally. They were released with DHS paperwork. Some of them didn't even have IDs. Didn't even have anything that would that would actually constitute an acceptable form of alternative identification to even be allowed on a plane by you. But they were allowed on. Holy cow.

The system was not perfect before for sure. It is sure as hell broken now. They had a whole separate. line at the terminal, Malugian reported, that was just four non-U.S. citizens who entered illegally. And because they didn't have like the right and they were allowed to go through. So you went, the left went from no fly lists to no vetting for people who are in the country illegally. I'll say that again. We went because 9-11 first began by someone who overstayed their visa. And it was never, that was the first crime and it was never acted upon. It was never enforced.

We went from putting people on no fly list. We went from you can't, the left cheerleading that to now there, you don't even have to have an acceptable form of identification to get on a plane if you've entered illegally and fly all over the country. You can't take anything more than 3.4 ounces of liquid on a plane. But someone who crosses into the country illegally breaks the law, by crossing into the country illegally, doesn't even have to have acceptable alternative identification to hop on a flight and fly elsewhere in the country. But screw you. This administration wants the country to be destabilized by lawlessness at the border. It's all on purpose. It's all on purpose. Like I said, we're going to talk to Governor Greg Abbott about that here shortly. I wanted to

play this. L'Idi Assamai One. There's a little, there's some petty politicking happening right now between two ladies in the Republican primary between one former governor, Nikki Haley and Christy Noem. Christy Noam yesterday was trying to take credit. She was saying that her state never shut down during the lockdowns when in fact she actually tried to shut her state down and was circumvented by her own state legislature. And she's counting on you not knowing that. When she was in the House of Representatives, Noam had a very moderate record. She is a very progressive Republican. She is not a conservative champion. You can sit here and pose with shotguns all day long. That does not mean that you are a conservative champion. She has a very moderate voting record. If you hated

Kevin McCarthy's record, you'll really hate Christine Oams record. But anyway, so she was asked about this. She wants to be Trump's VP. So of course she's saying this. I'll have somebody won. How would you assess Ron DeSantis and Mickey Haley's campaigns thus far, governor? You know, I think they're fine. You know, I served in Congress with Ron DeSantis. I know him. He got elected governor when I got elected governor. So, you know, he's certainly been a colleague. We made very different decisions, though. When times got tough and our constitutional rights and freedoms got challenged, he closed his businesses. He closed his beaches. He just made very different decisions than I did and took away people's freedoms. So, you know, I haven't supported him.

I haven't supported Nikki Haley. I just think, I don't actually work hard to try to shut her state down. And her own legislature had to act to stop her. I mean, there's tons of stuff on this. I mean, the federalist has a great archive on all of this, too, by the way. But it was the state legislature that had to act to make it to where they, she couldn't do it. And she's now trying to rewrite history by claiming that she was on the side of not closing. seriously?

Like, what in the world? I mean, to get into not even touch the fact that she failed to protect females and sports. But she, I mean, she vetoed that bill. She wouldn't protect women's sports.

She went along with the left wanting to shut things down and, as I said, Republicans in her state acted against it. I mean, she's, she's, hmm, Now, I've had it on the show before. I don't dislike her as a person,

but what I do dislike are when people lie to my face. So why you can't trust any politician? It's when people lie to my face about it. I mean, she's also, I mean, I could sit here and go, she was silent when eminent domain by out-of-state corporations with seizing people's land. I mean, getting to some of the BlackRock stuff. She's had a makeover.

She's really trying to present herself as being VP material, but she does not have a conservative record. She does not have a conservative record. whether it's from women's sports, whether it's for shutting, she, her own state fighting her against shutting down during the pandemic, the lockdowns, all of that, she does not have a conservative record, just like she did not have a conservative record in the house. I just, why do people try to rewrite history on this stuff? That frustrates me. But the reason she's been taking some shots, I don't know if I was looking up her other comment on this, she has been taking a couple

pot shots at Nikki Haley because she does not, she thinks Nikki Haley is in line to be Trump's VP if he wins the nomination. So they're kind of fighting over it. That's what this is about. Just saying. That's what this is about. I'm happy to put all of this in the next prep email, by the way, that goes out for the people who want more information on her lockdown stuff and her state because it's out there. It's all over the internet. And she tried to write that and has been trying to kind of

obscure history on that a little bit. But the internet never forgets. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick 5. So, first up, two restaurant employees were allegedly pepper sprayed over an automatic tip charge.

This is in South Bend, Indiana. An investigation is underway. A group of 10 people were accused of trying to outsmart an Indiana restaurant's tipping policy, and then two employees ended up getting pepper sprayed. Really? 18% gratuity that was automatically added to party six or more, and they said the group intent came in acting like they weren't together, sat in different sections. I mean, that's not how that. That's not how that works.

So they added an 18% gratuity, and then it got out of, there was like video, got out of control because the world sucks. Oh my gosh. So don't talk about it. calendars, vintage calendars from the year 1996 are worth of money in 2024. Do you know that? I mean how much money? They're talking about like vintage, like Star Wars stuff.

1996 apparently is the year that both, it has to do with like a leap year thing. So they're somewhere going online, like for sale for like $200. And they said it's because they can be used in 2024 because they match up. They're both, they're both years are leap years and they each started on a month. I wonder if I have one of those. Why would you have kept a calendar for me? I don't know. I remember I used to write in the, you know, those little scheduler bookie things that you used to buy?

Planners. Yeah, is that what they call? I haven't had one for a while. But yeah, I'm thinking I had one in the 90s. Might be able to use it. Seriously? You would keep that? You would have cut it for that long?

Look, there was some personal information in there. Why wouldn't I want to keep that? That's funny. It's not odd. A father says that his daughter's car is melting in the driveway and Honda says it's not covered by the warranty. They said, so this family in Georgia say that one of their cars is literally melting away. And they're trying to get it situated. Parts of the car from the driver's side mirror to the front bumper to the passenger side mirror,

they said started to warp. The paint began to bubble up. They said that it's just literally disintegrating. It's been sitting in their driveway. And they took it to a local Honda dealer because it's Honda. and they said, oh, it's just caused by the sun. What? It shouldn't melt by sitting just like outside.

And they're like, oh, it's not covered by the warranty. Sorry. So they've, the families, I, what? What, in what case of that, is it like a faulty paint? But it's warping too, so it's more than just paint. I've never heard of anything like that happening. Yeah, I don't know. Let's see, a burglar was busted because he was trying to use Uber as a getaway driver.

This is so stupid. would you do this? That's why they're burglars. You know, they picked crime. They're not the smartest people. It's in Colorado. Police say they caught a burglar trying to get away in an Uber last week. Wheat Ridge, Wheat Ridge Police Department. Wheat officers responded to reports of a burglary at Blue Sky Plumbing. There was a hole in the fence. It got security footage of a guy stealing tools. And then the driver, the Uber driver said he was called to pick up a dude named Jose who was walking towards the car.

Officers stopped them all. and he got in trouble that you can't order Uber as your getaway driver. It makes it really, makes it really easy to bust you for the crime. I can't even believe that that has to be explained. I just, maybe it shouldn't be. I don't, I don't know. But, and apparently the latest Epstein, Epstein documentation has dropped. Now, this is stuff that's been out, but it hasn't been unredacted,

meaning you didn't know who was involved, because you didn't know what was said. So now, so I don't have saying dropped as the accurate, unredacted now, officially unmasked is the latest. Governor Greg Abbott joins us next. Stick with us. Ready to grow your intellectual Rolodex? Download the Dana Show podcast and join the ranks of those who refuse to settle for the same old boring content on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. New York City has and will continue to do our part to manage this humanitarian crisis. But we cannot bear the course of reckless political ploys from the state of Texas loan. Today, our administration filed a lawsuit against 17 companies that have taken part in Texas

Governor Greg Abbott's scheme to transport tens of thousands of migrants to New York City in an attempt to overwhelm our social services system. These companies have violated state law by not paying the course of caring for these migrants, and that's why we're suing to recoup approximately $700 million already spent to care for migrants busts here in the last two years by the state of Texas. Governor Abbott's continuing use of migrants as political pawns is not only chaotic and inhumane, but makes clear he puts politics over people. That's pretty rich coming from a guy who claims sanctuary state mayor status, sanctuary city mayor status. If you want to talk about using people as pawns, I think that demanding that everyone else

cover the cost of your virtue signaling as a sanctuary city mayor. That seems to be using people as pawns. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you, bottom of this third hour. Maybe, maybe they can just take what they're wanting to recoup off of the $13.4 billion a year, apparently, that Texas taxpayers have to pay to cover the Biden administration's cost of illegal immigration. Joining us now is the governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, who has been just duking it out

with the administration over this. I just wanted to get your response to this because you've been fighting the DOJ, you've been fighting the Biden administration. They're fighting over the razor wire, any kind of inflatable barrier in the water. And now you have Eric Adams coming out and saying that you're using people as pawns

and they're suing these bus companies. I do think they want a remain in Texas policy. I think that's what this is designed to affect. Well, let me address this from several levels. First, the amount of migrants that Texas has sent to New York is a tiny fraction of what Joe Biden has sent there and a tiny fraction of what NGOs, non-government organizations have sent there. If he's going to start suing people for busing and flying migrants into New York,

it needs to start with suing Joe Biden, suing these NGOs like Catholic charities and others, because they've sent far more people there than has the state of Texas. Second, I want to address the legal issue because this is, Just a crazy lawsuit that has no legality whatsoever. Once a migrant gets on a bus or a plane from Texas going up there, the Biden administration has already authorized them to be in the United States of America. Because they're authorized to be in the United States of America,

the U.S. Constitution, the Commerce Clause, and a Supreme Court ruling providing for the right to travel exists. and Mayor Adams is in violation of their legal rights here in the United States. So this is going to be a lawsuit. He's going to lose very rapidly. And my hope is that Mayor Adams will have to pay the attorney's fees, the cost of court, and be penalized for filing a frivolous lawsuit. And you make a very good point talking with Texas Governor Greg Abbott.

Because correct me if I'm wrong on this, what I was looking at, not just from Border Patrol, but also Bill Malugian and a couple of other reports, when these illegal entrants are getting on the buses, they can request where to go, correct? And a lot of them have been requesting New York City because of what they heard about sanctuary cities. We bus migrants to cities that the migrants identify where they want to go. So we're not doing it against their will. And Mayor Adams knows this himself because he sent his team down to Texas months ago to find out what was going on. And there was a room full of migrants.

And they were asked, where do you want to go? Do you want to go to New York? Everyone raised their hand. And his staff about died when they saw that happen. They know these migrants are choosing to go to New York. And Mayor Adams is violating the constitution and laws by denying their ability to go to New York. Now, for people who might be familiar. If I can just add this, it shows the crazy hypocrisy.

They are a self-identified sanctuary city where they can. want to have these migrants there. All we're doing is giving them what they're asking for. But you know what? It's easy for these Democrats and liberals to come out and have all these talking points. But then when they actually have to live up to it, if I got it something different altogether, Democrats have said they are the party of migrants of immigrants. But when put to the test, when they actually have to deal with the migrants and immigrants,

they said, no, no, no, no, make Texas deal with that. It shows their rank hypocrisy of these. liberal leaders across the country. Well, Eric Adams is using Texans as pawns. Governor, he's using these Texas border towns and hardworking people who come in legally and create a life for themselves, add to the tax base in Texas. He's using all of these people as pawns. I was making note that for people who didn't know, the governor was also Attorney General.

So he's prior. So he knows a little bit about the law, which is why I obviously agree with, I think that this lawsuit's ridiculous because this is the bus. companies didn't create Joe Biden's policy. They didn't create the conditions in which they were, they were hired and just provided a service. You're right. But also you're right about something else you made reference to. And that is, we have all these small little towns on the border. You have Eagle Pass, Del Rio, et cetera. They're the ones that are inundated with all these migrants every single day. And all we are trying to do is to relieve the congestion of the illegal immigrants

who are in these small border towns caused by Joe Biden's policies and moving them elsewhere where they have every right to go under federal law. Listen, if Mayor Adams or any of these other mayors want to do anything about this, they need to go to the source of the problem. The source of the problem is Joe Biden. Remember this, Dana. Four years ago, we had the lowest, illegal border crossings in 40 years. It's because President Trump had in place four policies. Remed in Mexico, Title 42, in catch and release, and building a border wall. When Joe Biden came in office, he eliminated all of those policies, and that's exactly why we have the problem we have today. Mayor Adams would not have any migrants in a city if he insisted that Joe Biden enforce the immigration

laws of the United States of America. And that's what what so many people, who are, have questions about how can the federal government interfere in a state, especially border states, right to protect the sovereignty, not just if it's border, but also its citizens. I understand the federal government's responsible for the border,

but they're also creating lawless conditions in these areas. Crime is up. I was reading another figure. Something like, well, in December alone, 290,000 of these encounters by Border Patrol for the month of December, which is weird that Karin-Jean-Pier says it's not unusual. It ebbs and floats.

I think setting a record like that, Governor, that defines unusual. Well, it also defines an invasion. Speaking of New York, the New York population, New York City population is about 8 million people. Under Joe Biden, there's been more than the population of New York City come across our border illegally. That is an invasion. And Texas has every right to step. up and put the buoys in the water to build more than 100 miles of razor-wired barrier that denies illegal entry, to build the very same border wall that President Trump is built.

So Texas over the course of the next two years, we will complete more border wall than Trump was able to complete in the state of Texas. So that goes back to the taxpayer money you were talking about. Texas taxpayers have paid well over $10 billion for a border security efforts. And I got to tell you this, Dana, also, is having results. Texas represents about 60% of all the border mileage with Mexico. But yet we only represent now less than 40% of the illegal immigrants coming across the border because the cartels have realized it's a whole lot easier getting them into New Mexico

into Arizona and to California than it is in the state of Texas. Yeah, they're making a lot of money. What was it, something like $32 million a week from smuggling people across the border illegally? That's just in a 245 mile stretch of the border. Maybe Eric Adams could appeal to the cartels to get to recoup some of the money there. Talking to Texas Governor Greg Abbott. Speaking of the razor wire, too, you mentioned this. The Department of Justice, obviously demanding that the Supreme Court allow Border Patrol to cut the razor wire that's been used as this force multiplier and deterrence for people crossing and the areas where you relate shallow enough, you can just kind of walk across.

Talk to me about this because you've said, I'm reading your remark from Twitter. See you in court. Well, this is really amazing. Think about this in the history of America. Have you ever seen a president trying to prevent a state from securing his own safety? We laid down this razor wire hundreds of miles of it that was ineffective to turn and repelled migrants from entering the Senate of Texas. And because it was so effective, Biden ordered the border patrol to either cut it or to lift it.

There was one instance where they put a forklift under it and lifted it up and allowed hundreds of migrants into the country illegally. It's insanity that the Biden administration is doing this. And so we got a court ruling from the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals saying that the Biden administration could not interfere with our razor wire operation. and Biden appeal to the Supreme Court. So Texas is against the Biden administration in the U.S. Supreme Court as we speak right now, where Biden is begging the court to allow the Biden administration to tear down the razor wire wall that we have built. What happens, Governor, because I know you've sent National Guard down, and I know that there's a role legally that the National Guard is allowed to play.

And this is the other thing for people who it gets very in the weeds to explain the different hierarchies, federal government's supposed to control this, but yet the state can control this. And I just think if the federal government doesn't do its job, then that just, we should just be able to do whatever we need to to protect the southern border. That's my view on it. But for the people who don't live in border states, explain the hierarchy and the process. Like what can be done like right up to the line where maybe they would come and say, governor, you're breaking the law. We've got to arrest you for trying to enforce the law at the border. Like what is the maximum amount of pressure that you as governor can

can implement to protect the border? Well, we are using every tool that can be used from building a border wall to building these border barriers to passing this law that I signed that led to another lawsuit by the Biden administration where I signed a law making it illegal for somebody to enter Texas from another country. And so, and they're subject to arrest

and subject to deportation. And so we are deploying every tool and strategy that we possibly can. The only thing that we're not doing is we're not shooting people who come across the border because, of course, the Biden administration would charges with murder. And you can't even keep them detained from what I under. Like the administration won't even allow you to keep them in detainment for X amount of days. So we have used a tool for this. It's called trespass.

Anyone to call it in trespass is actually. subject to being jailed. And we have arrested and jailed people for trespass because they were trespassing illegally in the state of Texas. It is amazing the loopholes and the Olympic kind of flips that you have to do just to get around all these edicts from the administration. That's what really blows my mind. I tell people all the time, I'm like, remember, I mean, they basically stopped short

of threatening arrest with Jam Brewer in Arizona when she was trying to fight back against Obama Biden. Now it's Biden Harris. Texas Governor Greg Abbott, we'd love to have you back because this is going to be an ongoing issue. But this deluge that we're seeing at the border, it's absolutely unsustainable. We're seeing, as you said, entire cities in one month come across. And it's just, it's not sustainable, not in Texas or anywhere. We appreciate your governor. Thank you so much for joining us. We'll talk again soon. Thank you, Dana. Of course. We have more to come, folks, as we wrap up this

third hour of our broadcast. And of course, we will wrap with today in stupidity. So stay with us. We'll be back in just a moment. Follow Dana on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. because knowledge is your ultimate superpower. So I got to give you an owl update. I told you this yesterday. I don't know how else to describe it. It's an accidental attic owl. Apparently we have like an opening in our attic.

And I feel like I should be more freaked out about this than I am. It was large enough for a little screech owl to get into. And my husband was up in the attic yesterday. And boom, there's an owl in the attic. Now, I think this is the owl. that has lived in our patio and lived and I wouldn't let Chris get rid of it. And he, gosh, he gets, he's like the owl droppings were crazy. But I think it's the same owl that's lived here for a while.

Like when we first bought our house, there was an owl that we saw on the rafters in the patio. And I'm like, oh, it's an owl. It's meant to be. I've always wanted one. And now it's in the attic, though. Does this mean we're wizards? And then how that works? like you get an owl.

I think them's the rules. I think, yeah, I think them's the rules. I think that's right. But anyway, so this, he's still there. And we have to have like someone come and get him, kindly get him, and move him. Although I want to build an owl house for him. But I don't know anything about construction or power tools or anything like that. So I feel like that could be a very interesting venture for me.

there's a Juan shows that that's a picture of this owl Isn't it officially named Owl Bundy? Yeah so thank you for reminding me that. So we had a poll yesterday on social media. I left it up for a couple hours and I'm like here's I here I threw some name suggestions out. What do we have? Edgar Owl Lynn Pol Poe. I like that one.

Yeah. Owl Bundy. My favorite. Jarith because Jarith. Okay. Some people were like what is this garbage? David Bowie's character in Labyrinth turned into an owl. It's true.

And his character name in Labyrinth was Jarrett. That's why, that's where it comes from. I felt like that required too much explaining. Long road to get there, but yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So anyway, Owl Bundy ran away with the vote. So that's its name, Owl Bundy. And he seems pretty chill so far.

And so my other option was, can we build like a little owl door? I don't even know what that would look like. I'm just trying to come up because I really want to keep it. And my husband was like, He realized that possums and all that use doors too. It's not just like they're not going to go, oh, this is just for the owl. But wouldn't the owl eat the possum?

If you had a screech owl versus a possum, who wins in that fight? I don't know. Possums can get pretty big. You think an owl can just eat a possum? I don't know. Maybe a baby one. All I know about owls is that they're wise. I mean, I really, I had a friend that used to go through their feces for bones.

Yeah, I don't know. It was a weird thing. It's a thing. It is a thing. Yeah, but I could sell that. I'm just thinking of capitalist opportunities here. Anyway, I don't know what it is. So it's there. And apparently one of the other things, they said that they're attracted to manufactured boxes. So we have this giant box in our attic and it's a posable dummy. You guys have seen it before. I don't know why. I bought this at a whim on a whim, at a Spirit Hall. and I would randomly pose it around the house to scare the living daylights out of my friends and family. I don't know. Like, if we would have family to stay over, I would literally put it in the bed that the family was going to sleep in and cover it up and they'd walk in. I used to stick it in, you know, the bathroom at night just to scare people. I mean, it was like a thing.

I don't know. That's how we're weird. So anyway, I don't know. It loves this. It loves the box. It likes to sit on the box. And apparently I look it up, screech owls like manufactured boxes. I didn't know that.

I never knew that. Yeah. So I really want to try to build an, I don't know what's got. Maybe it'll still be here Monday. I don't know. That's my wish. But it can't, Chris says it can't stay in the attic or I got to clean it up. I don't really like that option.

So, because I'm a girl. Anyway, today's stupidity came. Well, we don't have time to play the audio, but this is the view. I talked about Owl Bundy. That's right. The view earlier this morning, they're claiming you shouldn't listen to anyone but them on the details as it relates to the COVID of vaccine. I'm going to interrupt you because I just had a brilliant idea. What? That's today's stupidity, but what if it was like a

part of the show? Albonne. Like back here. I want that. I didn't mean to totally hijack. I'm sorry, Kane. I'll make up for it next week. You can pet him. Have a great weekend, back with you Monday.
