President Trump's endorsement powers Ken Paxon to the Texas GOP Senate nomination, and he now battles the radical James Tala Rico. L.A. Mayor Karen Bass says she wants to explore non-citizen voting. You already know what her answer is. And the Democratic autopsy is an amateur mess that still won't admit why Kamala Harris lost. I'm Greg Corumis, inviting you to join Jim Garrity of National Review and me each weekday for the Three Martini Lunch podcast. We'll give you the top news, some good laughs, and we'll be done in 30 minutes. Follow the Three Martini Lunch on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast.

Welcome back to the program, your lovable cramudgeon. Dana Lash here with you. And one of the big blowups that we saw over the weekend, my friends would not stop texting me about this. And I'm trying to be very methodical about protecting my time off because I don't really take vacations. So I, you know, my weekends, I'm trying not to like read as much news. So I don't.

So life isn't miserable. And I don't pray harder for aliens to come and kill us all. Ultimately, I think. I'm joking and I'm not. But so I was trying not to watch the implosion of the whole grand platinum thing. You guys know him. He's the annoying meathead who lied about having a Nazi tattoo. We're not just saying that he got a Nazi tattoo.

The dude bragged about having like the skull and crossbones that the SS guards at concentration camps had. That's literally the tattoo the guy had. And he was bragging about it. And then they tried to hide it. And it's just ridiculous how it's gotten. the way that it is. It's insane. So you have Graham Platner who Democrats really want him out of the race, I think, now, because he is an absolute liability. But he's them. Is he a liability?

Is it a liability if he's just like, hey, I'm who you are? I'm just not lying about it. Right? So this whole story is insane. For all of the discussion that Democrats had, over. I'm pulling up this story. Pete Hegsess tattoo. You remember Pete Hegseth tattoo? The Iron Cross and people were acting like it was some big, like actual Nazi thing when that they tried to see that in everything. But then this is okay. So, Grand Platner, oh boy, where to start? This is a guy who, oh, what, Kane, some of the stuff I really don't want to get into it because I can't believe this is where we are.

Here, we have this audio. Actually, let's go to audio real quick. Let me do this. We have some audio of Platner where he was asked. This was back in January. He was on, was this at Miz now or CNN? Little Miz now. It doesn't matter. This is cut 25. He was asked, so is there any other baggage that you got in your closet? And he's like, no, everything's great. Listen to this. I'm wondering, are there other skeletons from your past? that still may emerge in this race?

No. I haven't lived a boring life, but I haven't lived a very complicated life. I've never been close to money. I've never been close to power. I've never really had the ability to screw people over. My life is not very complicated, and no, there is not anything else coming. Would you like to revisit that? I don't even know where to start with us. Age like milk. So I don't even know where to start.

with it. So this is back in January. You know, he was asked this and he said no. I mean, I don't, I don't know where to start. So he had the, let's start with the tattoo again. It was the Totenkov. He had this actual literal tattoo that Nazi guards, a concentration camps had. And he had apparently bragged about it in text, bragged about it to friends. So he knew exactly what it was when he was caught with it. And then he tried to cover it up. When he was caught with it, he was caught with it, he was. He acted as though he didn't know what it was, that he had just gone to, this is just the beginning, that he had just gone to a tattoo parlor with some friends on leave and gotten the tattoo. But then it came out that he knew exactly what it was, and that's the whole reason why he picked it.

So that came out. Let's see. He's referred to Jesus' mother as a skink. Yeah. He has, where to start? I don't know. He had a DUI on his record that he lied about. Oh, my gosh.

What? What? I mean, I don't know how far I can see. What about the porta potty stuff? Oh, God, no. See, all these sweet people that have been just living their best lives this weekend, they have no idea what we're, they really, and I'm trying to figure out if I want to talk, tell you about it.

Tell about the kick profile, okay. I'll take the porta potty. It's too much for me. It's too much. Tell the people. Well, apparently it's been discovered that it's currently, and from what I saw this morning, it's still currently active. Oh, you're kidding me.

And apparently, Kick is obviously a private messaging situation where nefarious things happen. Some weird people go on it and they message. Yeah. That is an accurate way to describe it. Yes. And so he is on it. Current photo. You can tell that, you know, based on the tattoos.

He was trying to take a sexy shot of himself. Yeah. And it actually just IDs him for who he is. He's, yeah. Well, he's, he called, what is it, a gold star. He made fun of a gold star soldier's death. New York Post, by the way, your pop-up ads. I hope the asteroid hits your offices first.

Same. So he also, oh gosh, do I really want to talk about the porta-potty stuff? Okay. So he was on Reddit, and he was under the name P-Hustle, and apparently he would go into Port-a-Pocci. It was a post that asked, what are some familiar sense that bring you back to reality and nostalgia? I can't read what he said. But he said that he likes to go to porta potty's and have private romantical time because the blue water smell apparently is a turn on for him.

Private romantical times with himself. Yes, in a port-a-potty randomly, wherever he would see them. And he apparently did it a lot. And everything that he had on Reddit was verified by Reddit and this pull push search tool that archives all of his post and all of that stuff because he tried scrubbing everything but it didn't happen. The internet never forgets. So he's got that tattoo. He talked about, well, he mocked a Purple Heart Soldier. That was the footage.

He said that the guy didn't deserve to live. because his stupidity, et cetera. He went off on him. He had the death said symbol. He, oh my gosh, where to even start? The sexist tax, he got, I mean, his own, I, Democrats have a major issue with this guy. And they were rounding, they were circling the wagons around him just last week. At what point does it get too far, right?

At what point do you say, that's one, that is just, the Port-a-Portable, potty thing was one too far, right? At what point do they say, well, maybe this isn't our guy? They had the Wall Street Journal in New York Times. Apparently, then they got sexually explicit, I'm not reading these either, sexually explicit text messages

that Plattner was exchanging with women who were not his wife. One of them, oh, I can't say this. One of them read he wanted to blitzkrieg that a double snakes. That's actually one of the only ones that I can read. I'm trying to be very careful with us because we have some very sensitive markets out there in the terrestrial space.

So he was, yeah, sexting with other women who were not his wife. And some of it was really gross. Now his wife had previously defended him. But now she said that she was deeply hurt. She felt betrayed. She said that the private confessions were spread by a former staffer. And it was a staffer, by the way, that had left when the death's head and all of that stuff came out. So she was defending.

She was saying that it was shameful gossip, et cetera. What in the world is that? What in the world is that? These are pretty bad. This guy sounds like a jack wagon. I've never met him. I don't ever care to meet him. He sounds like he's high on his own supply.

he's over-sexed and completely grody, and he's a complete leftist. He is everything that a progressive male, when you talk about toxic masculinity, it's Graham Platner, right? That's the toxic masculinity. It's not like World War II vets. It's dudes like Graham Platner.

This guy, who thinks he's God's gift to women. I'm like, have you seen yourself in a mirror? Really? No. And he's, the stuff, that he has said, I mean, sexting with the women, going after injured soldiers, the

death's head tattoo, talking about going and having a wink and a port-a-potty because he likes the blue water. I mean, there's, there's, that's just the top of the iceberg. I can't even believe we're, this is where we are today. Hi, it's Monday. I'm so sorry. I did not

do this to you. It was Democrats who did this to you. So at what point are they, so at what point and the wife was like, oh, these texts with women that's, you know, it's shameful. And you would think that she would, when I first saw this headline, I thought, is his wife saying that it's shameful that he did this? Because that's honestly what I thought came. I thought his wife is saying it's shameful that he did this. And oh, my goodness. And apparently she had confided in this staffer that had left after the death's head controversy.

And she had, the wife had confided in the staffer. And then it was, the staffer, apparently, that allowed this stuff to get out. So when the wife was saying that it's shameful that this happened, when I first saw that headline, I thought she's going after the man. Okay, well, maybe my stereotype of her as a Democrat wife is going to be completely upended five seconds later. Nope, no, nope. She's saying that the people talking about what her husband did is shameful gossip. That's not gossip to say that your, that your grody, middle-aged, over the hill horny husband who's sexing everyone when he's not wanking it and a portopati when he's not tubing it and a porta potty saying that it's gross isn't gossip everyone's affirming

that he did it and he doesn't care who knows i i'm sorry but i wouldn't be standing by a man after that they're sexting you're sexting other women i'm not going to be standing by a man i'm going to be calling my uncle that owns a pig farm i'm going to be standing by nobody that i just oh my And he won't get out of the race. Do you think he's going to get out of the race came? No, because Democrats are still showing support. They understand, without saying it publicly, that this is hurtful to Democrats having this guy and supporting this guy. But right, this is what we're proven.

It's D different. This is how different. This is how D different things are. I mean, if you didn't think that the tattoo was enough, he was like, I didn't know it was a Nazi tattoo. I just didn't know. And then texts come out totally knew it was a Nazi tattoo. and bragged about it being a Nazi tattoo. There's always going to be somebody in your life to tell on you.

Just know this. That will always happen. The bigger problem for me is the fact that everything the left has claimed Trump is is who Graham Platner is. And they are sitting there defending him while making this up for Trump. It's unreal how bass-acquards things are with Democrats. I mean, I'm trying to be cognizant of the subject matter because I realize a lot of you now, schools out and I know you don't have me babysit your kids but your kids may be around you while you're listening to the program so I'm trying to be very sensitive to that but my gosh you guys I haven't

even got I'm not reading the texts I gave you the most G rated version text that I could correct cane I mean that's the only one I can pretty much share it's gross and I look at this guy and I'm sorry he is nothing attractive why is it always the ugliest progressives that act like this people like Anthony Wiener. He could like pull his head through a needle. I have a needle. He's like all skinny and he's like he's

out of proportion. You know what I mean? He's just features are ugly. Grand Platner's features are ugly. He's just not an attractive man, but this is male progressivism. If you want to know how feminists are created, if you want to go back and see the evolution of feminists and they're germinating stage,

go back and look at Grand Platner's wife. Look at Grand Platner. That is the type of progressive male that creates feminists because he has no idea how to treat women. He has no idea how to treat other people. And so they're going to stand by him. That's what it looks like. He's got support from Sanders, from Warren, from Ruben Galego. He's got Roe-Connor.

I mean, so far doesn't look like he's lost any support. He went, didn't he have an event on Sunday? where he got a standing ovation from his Nazi-loving, enthusiastic supporters. I'm surprised that some of the podcasts to Stan Bros weren't in the audience for him. Oh, my gosh, speaking of which, so one of the chunky ones and his Nepo nephew got banned from the UK, and they're trying to say that Israel did it. We're going to talk about that coming up because that's so ridiculous. We have a lot to hit still as we move.

party people. Dana Lash with you. We're at the top of this very first hour here. Oh, sorry, second hour. Second hour. Top of the second hour here on Monday. I'm just juggling and doing the job of 5,000 people back channel. It's okay. Can we talk about the chunk and the Nepo baby that were apparently banned from the UK? You had some audio of this. Did you not? Will you play that funky music, white boy? This is Hassan in response to being banned. Yeah.

Left wing YouTube Pundit Jank Ugar band from entering the UK? Yeah, it's... Okay, well, I didn't want to talk about it, but... Oh, yes, you did. visa has also been revoked. We just found out. So yes. Yes, I will not be going as it stands currently. I don't believe that I'll be able to go to the United Kingdom this upcoming week.

Okay. I don't know who to reach out for this. Okay. I was supposed to do something with Janus Varifakis, do something with Zach Polanski, do something with Jeremy Corbyn, do something at the Oxford Union. He was saying that it was, guess who they blamed? Oh, man. If you had to guess who the, uh, Hassan Piker and his uncle, Chunk.

Blamed. Oh, if I'm betting money. For getting banned. Who would you, who would you think that it is? To Jews. To Jews. So Chunk goes, hmm, he goes, and I've been banned from the UK. I try to get on a flight to London to attend South by Southwest London and give a speech at Oxford.

I'm being banned for criticizing you. Israel. Wow. Wow. And they act like it's to Jews that did it. And the Woke Reich and all of the podcast to stand cable news rejects that all just go on each other's shows and drive up each other because that's like literally all they can do. They, they guess on each other's shows all the time when they're not visiting Qatar and Russia. So they decided to immediately blame Israel. by the way you know that like Tommy Robinson had the

Unite the Kingdom March what was that like two weeks ago and a ton of the people that were supposed to travel to the UK to participate in Tommy Robinson's Unite the Kingdom March were banned from traveling to the UK

one of them I knew no it's Eva Varnerbrook she's a Dutch commentator she's banned from going to the UK and it has nothing to do with Israel. No. They, also Kanye West is banned.

It doesn't matter whether or not you think they should be banned, but it has nothing to do with Israel. And that's what Hassan, Nepo baby Hassan said. He goes, the UK has revoked my visa as well, all at the behest of Israel. That's what he said. Israel had nothing to do with it. You absolute product of goat fornicating insects. He had absolutely nothing to do with it. Probably some of the stuff that you've said prior.

I mean, we have some of the hits that we'll play in a moment. But let me just point out, so they say it was the Jews that banned them. And specifically, it's the British Home Secretary. Would you like to know who the British Home Secretary is? She's a British politician and barrister, and she's been serving as Home Secretary since 2025. And her name is Shabana Mahmoud. Wow, sounds super Jewish. Shabana Mahmood.

What? I was told this was to Jews. But it's not, in fact. Hmm. Let's read a little bit about her. Oh, she's with the labor party, so she's a lefty. Huh. Like a super lefty, by the way.

She's like the super lefty faction of the labor. party. Oh, yeah, she enjoys Jeremy Colbyn, who's a notorious anti-Semite. Let's see. Who else? Oh, oh, she said so interesting where she's member of parliament. She's definitely not Jewish. Definitely not Jewish. In fact, she's Pakistani. Huh. And she was raised in Saudi Arabia. Huh.

Jewish of her. So, King, I was told this is to Jews, though. Yeah, that's what we're told. Seemed to be told that a lot. I'm curious. Because they've said, I mean, he literally,

Hassan Piker, who everybody knows is just this, like, absolute icon of intelligence, says that it was at the behest of Israel that he was, that he was banned. Hmm Really

But her name Kane What hey What's the By the way What is the Main religion in Pakistan

Yeah What about Saudi Arabia Also Islam Oh Okay Okay

So not Jewish Then Okay That's quite opposite Actually All right I just wanted To kind of go

I mean This is a guy Who said That he would Vote for Hamas Over Israel real every single time. He, goodness, he praised October 7th. He praised Houthi actions in the Red Sea. He calls Jewish people inbred, blah, blah, blah, goes on and on and on. I mean, look, I'm kind of a

free speech purist, and I like terrorists, when the products of terrorist goat fornicating, like Hassan Piker and his uncle chunk, who I think should be deported, both of them, just send them back to where they came from. But, no, I absolutely do. I think that their beliefs, are incompatible with the United States of America and Western civilization. It's true. I mean, I'm not wrong because I'm never wrong, especially here. But this claim that they're making that it was at the behest of Israel doesn't really hold water at all. It was the Pakistani Home Secretary that did this.

It has nothing to do with the Jews. but this is all you're going to hear from podcast to stand. The podcast to stand is going to talk about this nonstop. And they said that it has to do with the genocidal fascist foreign government and et cetera, et cetera. So again, where are all of these people that were upset when you had Americans who couldn't even travel over there to take part in Tommy Robinson's United Kingdom March? Where were they for those people? Oh, I didn't, I didn't hear anything about that. Huh.

Where were they about, oh, I don't know. What about Philippe de Winter? British, he's a Belgian politician, very, very highly critical of Islamism. And he was going to the United Kingdom March, but he couldn't go because he was banned from the UK. That had nothing to do with Israel. In fact, he's highly critical of Islam. And so I would think that Israel would want him. I mean, going by Hassan Piker and Chunk Uyghurs remarks, you would think that they would want him there, right?

I thought Israel controlled everything until they don't, right? Because it was a Pakistani Muslim who said that Chunk and his Nepo nephew, who literally has contributed nothing except being a sore on the butt of Cuba and walking around wearing, you know, $2,800 worth of merchandise. What have they contributed? did nothing. I'm just amazed by this. And he acts like he somehow owed it. Like, I can't believe. I was, again, this was a guy who wore, like, he wore, what was it, a $700 shirt, $1,100 pair of sunglasses. He wore a Cartier, did he wear a Cartier ring or something, which I'm sorry, if you're a single man and you're wearing a Cartier ring, you're gay. You are. You're so gay.

And I'm not wrong. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Oh, don't rainbow me this whole month again. Gag. So tired of it all. But my point is, he goes over, like, a completely Nouveau-Riche D-Bag. It's like he went to the mall and then went to Cuba right after and wore everything that he purchased during that one trip in Cuba on that one day when he was photographed wearing all of his stuff. Isn't that hysterical?

I find that hysterical. It's like he goes, you can tell it's not like organic old money. He goes on a shopping spree and then wears all of his shopping spree the first day in Cuba. And these poor people can't even afford a damn sandwich. But, you know, they're watching this guy walk around in a $700 silk shirt. You're wearing silk to Cuba, by the way. And silk is such an unforgiving material and it does not go well. You know that the guy is just absolute, just trash, because you wear linen to those

places, first off. But my word. So it had nothing to do with the Jews. It had to do with the UK deciding that they did not think that what these two do and their commentary didn't benefit the UK. Now, I think one of the reasons that we all look at this story and we're going, wow, why did the UK ban anybody? Because the UK never bans anybody. I mean, they have boatloads of dudes. up from North Africa on their shores and they're like, yeah, why don't you all come on in? Yes, we'll have a grand party. Yes. We'll go out in the tiles.

Yes. We'll go trip the light fantastic. Yes, let's go. And they welcome all of these people that come in, right? I mean, and if they commit crimes, oh, you didn't know you weren't supposed to rape people. Well, you're stupid and you're from a third world hell. so God love you. We'll just look past that. He's, Your Honor, he's too ignorant to know that rape is not good. It's bad. That's kind of defense they've been giving these people for targeting these

women over there. So it's weird to see them ban anybody for speech. When the full conclusion of everything that Hassan Piker and Uncle Chunk, everything that they advocate for, that's the conclusion of it that is entirely welcomed in Britain. So that's why I find it very confusing, right? They don't want the commentary, but they want the fully formed chaos, right? Am I understanding that correctly? I mean, if I was the Home Secretary, I would have taken one look at them, and I would have said, you're chunky and dumb, so you can't come here, and you are literally like a grease-bald e-bag. You are also not, you wore a silk shrew. You were silk shirt to Cuba that was $700 while people can't afford sandwiches. You're too stupid to come

into our country. Your idiocy could be catching. It could be worse than Ebola. We already have a problem with stupidity in this country. We can't afford to import your third world hellhole brand of it right now. That would have been my response. But alas, I'm not in charge. And we're all sadder for it. We have a lot more on the way. We've got headlines coming up as we move. Noble gold. Noble Gold Investments, just as we were talking about things, can be sketchy. You may not know exactly everything that's, I mean, people are still trying to figure out what's happening. They're playing the waiting game. Noble Gold Investments has been walking people through waiting because gold doesn't wait. Gold moves on uncertainty. It moves on instability. And that's every headline that you

see right now. So if you're considering gold as part of your portfolio, this is the time that it makes the most sense to talk to people who really understand this market.

today no pressure, no obligation. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. We're at the top of our third hour today this Monday and getting you set up for the week. So we have an op currently ongoing with members of the Woke Reich traveling to Russia

to try to sell you on the idea if you're ignorant of history, you'll buy it, that Russia is such a Christian, so Christiany. Look at their amazing church us over there. So Gal Sharpton's over there and with her totally hetero husband, completely, completely into women, husband. And sure. And saying the Christian expression and heritage is unmatched. They're lying to us about Russia. Who's lying to whom about Russia? This is just

another grift for Gal Sharpton. She's got to make up those missing T. P.U.S. A bucks is what it is. She's got to make up for that cash load. That's really ultimately the truth of the matter. So this has been a thing that I've seen like Russian propagandist push for quite some time. But it's entirely ignorant of history. It is, wow, incredibly ignorant of history. And in fact, I had retweeted one of my friends who reminded everybody that let's be,

Let's like look at this whole issue honestly. Like they have cathedrals over there that actually have the hammer and sickle incorporated into the stained glass because it celebrates the victory of the atheist Soviets in World War II. And remember, you're talking about an ideology that was saying that religion was the opiate of the masses, which really that's what communism is, if you wanted to be honest about it. It's the church that they have is a, it's not actually, so the Russian Orthodox Church is more of a church that is supposed to be a vehicle for stateism and nationalism more so than actually having a relationship with Christ and bringing people to heaven. So it is, I don't, I think a lot of people don't understand the role that the church plays and that government. and the communist government. I don't think that they understand. I just not think I know that they have zero understanding of the role in Russia in which their church plays and the atheism that is the backbone of the communist regime. And it's still communist. I mean, don't sit here and tell me

that it's not just because you don't call it communist. It is. But the history of persecution of Christians by the communist regime is pretty well documented. So why are we pretending that It's like this super Christian-y, why are we doing this? Why are we doing? It's because podcast stands going over there is why. That's why podcast to stand is going over there. So I think in order to buy into everything that podcast to stand sells, you have to be uneducated. And I'm not talking about having a super fancy four-year degree.

You don't need a college degree to just pick up a damn book and read it. You don't need a college degree to make you get online and look things up. I'm not a historian, and I didn't study, I didn't go with a history major in college, but I love history. I love reading about it. So I read about all of this stuff, which is how I know about all of this stuff. I didn't have to be programmed or induced by the prospect of a college degree to go and do it for history. that's not that was not my my uh course of study i didn't wasn't a history major my point in

bringing all of this up is that you don't have to be educated in this bougie trad traditional uh upper crust definition of educated in order to understand your history does that make sense so when i say that you that the people who are buying into the stuff that that podcastistan is selling, that they're uneducated. I think it's a choice at this point. Autodietism is an amazing thing. You can be an autodietic, someone who automatically loves to learn about things and is self-directed and you, if you like history, you're going to read about history.

If you like cars and you like understanding how engines work and you're a gearhead, that's auto dietism. You're not going to a school to achieve a plane of knowledge on that. You're going because you're reading about it and you're educating yourself because you're genuinely interested in it. You could say that about any a number of things, right? For women who quilt, you know, if you're out there quilting, you, that's, you're, you're teaching yourself and you're immersing yourself into a skill that you didn't have to be

induced to do because of a course of study at a university, if that makes sense. So my point goes back to, and I think that's a dodge for people to say as a way to excuse the fact that they don't know these basic things about history, right? I mean, for crying out loud, there's a lot of, I mean, you've got anti-missionary laws in Russia. You've got, that prevents like Protestant proselyization. You've got a lot of stuff in Russia. So I don't know how anybody can go over there and say, my gosh, it's so super Christian the part that they let us say. It just, it's embarrassingly ignorant.

Of course, I'm not surprised because these are people who say words like architecture. C-Sé-Puadwe. I was saying, good heavens. People who don't understand history or don't know it are doomed, absolutely doomed to repeat it. But the Russian church, or not Russian church, the Russian government absolutely takes faith as a way to weaponize it against the people. And that's how they view the role of faith, their government, their communist orthodoxy, of their government, of their government, all of that. That's how they look at this. And I mean, that's just if you've grown up watching how they function and how they've treated faith and how they treated Christianity.

But I've noticed, who is it? Tucker Carlson's super drunk brother. What's his face? Oh, Buckley, because they only apparently have like a couple of names in that family that they feel comfortable to use. Buckley, apparently. He was saying that we should embrace Russia as America's ally and reject the anti-Christian global. global homo agenda and government that the State Department has been pushing for more than a generation. What? What are you talking about? You're actually now, so they're actually out there now. I mean, speaking of global homo, she did take her husband with her. If you want to have a discussion

about global, global homo, right? Anyway, I mean, we now see them shilling for a commies. That's what this is. You're absolutely shilling for commies at this point. That's what this is. All these people need to register with Farah. Register with Farah, but Buckley's crashing out big time. So badly. I mean, drugs and alcohol, I assume really, I mean, I'm just assuming they have a really bad effect to that point on people. We are in the midst of it. This is my point in talking about this is it's not just the left that you have to worry about, it's this stuff, which is still the left. It's just a different facet of the left. And some of the, let me pull, get into, I really didn't want to get into this at this point,

but where it concerns the elections in midterms, getting into midterms, I'm just telling you, it's going to start, we got to have, we need to have some discipline from Republicans, and we need to really focus on. getting a handle on the economy and on energy. So you can look at some of the recent polling. Trump is taking a bit of a hit because of the price of energy and some other, I mean, especially with gas prices, et cetera. And you can tell people as long as you want to that this is going to be short term

and it's going to, it's not going to last very long. And the negative impact is going to be for a short duration. And you can tell people that. but that doesn't make it easier during the time that they're in that situation. And so this is the, this is the problem that Republicans are going to have to deal with. Because so far he's doing really good in the primaries, but primaries is very different from a general election. And I've noticed a lot of Republicans looking at like the candidates that he's endorsed that won their runoffs or won their primaries, like specifically the Paxton

Cornyn thing, a lot of people have been saying, well, this is just great for the GOP. They think that in some regards, that means that they're not going to have to work as hard, I guess, in the general. That does not stop. Primaries are entirely different things from generals. You're going to be dealing with a whole new segment of

independence and moderates, and does the coalition stand? And one of the things that you're seeing, and this is one of the reasons why I hit the woke Reich so much is they're trying very, very hard to make sure that that coalition, and splinters before midterms take place. And they're using Israel and all this stuff to do it, which is why I talk about that now more routinely than I ever had before. So for midterms, even gaining some seats with redistricting is not enough to minimize the damage

if they don't get a handle on energy prices, et cetera. It's going to have to happen. And it's, he's in a pickle. This is not an easy spot for him to be in. I think the way that he's been handling Iran, I agree with him. I think that he's been, I like the way that he's been handling it. We don't have boots on the ground over there. And we've been limited on what we've done.

He's completely gone by the authorized use of military force, even though it's incredibly frustrating at times because it seems like things are dragging out. I do think that Republicans need to gird their loins and support. tougher language and a tougher position because we can't you can't come we're going to be dealing with this forever and this is going to be the last chance that we have in our lifetimes of dealing with this this terrorist this terrorist state it'll be the last chance that we have and all the people who say that they don't like war and they don't like conflict and they don't want to send their loved ones off i guarantee them to you those people dragging their feet and preventing a more

austere stance from this president on this are going to guarantee that that happens in the future that's what people don't understand i mean you can't just go in with your hands ringing and act as though you're going to somehow be polite and polite them out of their religious zealotry. That's not going to happen. Brutes only recognize brutishness. That's it. They only recognize brutishness. And so there are a couple of different surveys. You have the real clear politics average. It looks at Trump's approval. He's got a disapproval of 58 of the RCP average. That's not great, to be honest. down 17. But that's

a little bit better than what it was back at the beginning of May. And the May, well, there was an Associated Press poll that was taken May 14th that had him 62% disapproval. So the average is a 57% disapproval. So much of this has to do with energy, it has to do with gas, and it has to do with inflation still, which is still an issue. Things are expensive. Let's not lie about. it. That doesn't solve anything. The whole reason of talking about it is so Republicans do something about it. And if you want to win, you're not going to want to ignore it and pretend that it goes away or falsely say that it's some manufactured media narrative because it's not. Everybody can see the

prices that they pay for stuff. And I guarantee you some of these moderate Republicans and Democrats are going to want to keep POTUS in this position for as long as possible, especially the Democrats, because it will hurt during midterms and that's the whole reason why they're doing it. That is the whole reason. And then you've got these moderate Republicans that are so desperate for clicks. They will go along and co-sign stuff from Democrats, people like Thomas Massey on certain things, just so they can get their digs in at the expense of what? Everything that we've been pushing for.

We have more on this. We've got headlines on the way as we move. Patriot Mobile, the only Christian conservative cell phone service that's out there, Patriot Mobile wants to save you money. But also make sure you just get top to your service because that's what they offer. They are more competitive than everybody else. And with Patriot Mobile, you get prioritized premium nationwide coverage on the same more better than big carriers. You get fast speeds, 100% U.S.-based support, unlimited data plans, mobile hotspots, international roaming, everything that you would expect from the top carriers.

You can get a new phone, get a new number, or just keep what you have. No hassle. It's very easy. You don't have to go anywhere. You can sit on your sofa and switch.

So visit patriotmobile.com slash Dana or call 972 Patriot and use Codeana to get a free month of service. That's Patriotmobile.com slash Dana 972 Patriot. I don't know what Democrats are going to do with Grand Plattenor because you can't even get Chris Murphy, who is like the number, he was like right behind Nancy Pelosi.

He was her main attack dog, her main stooge. He doesn't even want to address it. HUD 16, listen to this. Yeah, I mean, I have not followed this story as closely as others have. But, I mean, Grant Platner is somebody that served our country. He served his community. That has nothing to do with what we're talking about. And he has admitted that.

Character also involves standing up to people who are bankrupting and corrupting this country. And this- Oh, is that what he was doing when he was sexting them, ladies? When he was sexting with them, ladies? Is it because they was proven a threat to our country? Is that accurate, Kane? Welcome back, everybody, by the way, with the bottom of this third hour. You're a lovable little cry. I just wanted to just drag this guy somewhere.

more because this is crazy that this guy's still in it this long. Good night. This is one of the worst for some time, I think, the Grand Platner stuff, one of the worst. And the whole thing, so you had the Wall Street Journal that had contacted her name. Yeah, that's right. Genevieve McDonald. So Genevieve McDonald, a former aide, for a comment on a story that the Wall Street Journal was working on, right? Now, according to the facts of the matter here, you had Morris Katz, a top Platner staffer demanded that, you know, they, that the staffer.

that the staffer, Genevieve McDonald, call the reporter, retract her off-record remark, declare that all of the reporting coming from the Wall Street Journal was false. And not only that, hand over a recording of any and all conversations that they had, right? And Genevieve McDonald refused to do that. And so that's when Morris Katz, still a top Graham Platner staffer, sent her a text threatening her, and saying that she betrayed the trust of Platner and his wife by talking about Platner betraying the trust of his wife. And he said they were explicit falsehoods, narrator. They were not.

And he was accusing Genevieve McDonald trying to sabotage Grand Platner's campaign. And she was like, no. So she went on record with York Times. So then Platner was asked, point blank on camera, were you sexting all them, ladies? And his wife? like had to record a video saying that everything is fine and she's standing with him. So then the Platner campaign is trying to desperately clean up this absolute disaster. And his wife, do we want to play this?

This is the wife. Did she do this on her own, Kane? Yeah, it looks like she's doing a selfie style video for TikTok. But do you think that she thought about doing this on her own? That I don't know. I mean, you know that they're getting advice from Democrats on how to run this and how to thread the needle, so to speak, as it relates to the PR here. So I wouldn't be surprised to hear that they've been advised in some way. Well, he was, they were describing all of this as falsehoods.

Now, remember, the wife apparently had confided in Genevieve McDonald. So the wife makes this like weird video, this awkward video. And she's saying, everything is okay. They're together. This is her part of her video. I'm terrified that she's going to, I mean, who knows what she's going to say in this? Go, go. Good.

Do we want to play some of it? Go ahead. I, and Graham personally, you know that we got married in 2023. We live in Sullivan. We've got two dogs. And we love each other deeply. So it makes me really angry, disappointed. And I find it really shame for it.

that there's a group of media outlets and people who are willing to spread gossip instead of talking about real issues that this is a real issue. The man is literally chasing strange behind your back. It is a real issue. In addition to the fact that he had literally

a dusthead tattoo that he lied about. Oh, and what else did he lie about? What did he not lie about? He also tried to act like he's just a poor veteran and he ain't got no money. But actually, he has a lot of money. His dad, who's a very wealthy attorney, gave him six figures to buy his house. That's from the free beacon. Platner said, I never been no close to money or power.

He really tries really hard to come off. Like he never attended a super boogey, very elite and ridiculously experienced. of Connecticut boarding school, that costs over $75,000 a year. And the, oh, and you would never know that he's also the grandson of a world famous architect who designed $20,000 chairs. So he's this hard scrabble oyster farmer. But his business partner also attended a super elite New England boarding school. This is per free beacon and graduated from Dartmouth, blah, blah, blah.

And he is the owner of the main island where Platner's, reported oyster farm is based. Kane. This guy ain't poor. This man doesn't need to have money because everybody around him. He's got daddy money. You don't need to have money if you got daddy money. Grand Platner has daddy money.

Do you know what's bigger than blankie money? Daddy money. For some reason, it shouldn't be, but it is. Think about it. Think about that weirdo Kennedy kid. He's got daddy money, right? It's not blankie money. It's daddy money.

It's weird. So Platter, so here's what the crazy thing. He pretends that he's this oyster farmer. Do you know who the basic sole purchaser of his oysters is? His mom's restaurant. A fine dining place. So he doesn't get paid from the oyster farm that's on his friend's private island. The main purchaser of the oysters is his mom.

and he makes like $5,000 a month somehow. I don't know how. Anybody have any ideas? Because all the vets are like, that's not because of a VA benefit. He's, yeah, they're like, no, no, no, that ain't a VA benefit. What is this?

What is this? He's literally, this guy embodies the white privilege that the left says that they hate. Oh, and then he sexes all the other ladies and he does all kinds of goofy stuff all the time. So that's who he, he is. That's who this guy is. So his wife

gets out there and she records this video. And the campaign, they're trying to scrub everything. And instead of denying, they didn't deny that any of these, the sects exist.

They just said that the New York Times didn't have them. You're right over there. I don't know, man. The campaign actually even confirmed the authenticity, and this was Twitchy that talked about the authenticity of the the messages between Platner, his wife, and the former aide. So, yeah, this is going to get bad.

They just... It's just gossip. I mean, yes, they're real. It's all real. But it's gossip. That you're talking about what we actually did is gossip. That's not how gossip works. That is not how that works, ma'am.

No, it's how... That is absolutely how it works. How dare you talk about these things? This is insane. you would think, though. Now, in the meantime, Nancy Mace is crashing out because of Trump. Somebody else, she's going to go full, what is your, what's your bet? You think she's going to go full on Marjorie Taylor Green here in the next week?

Oh, I don't even know what that would entail. Can she even do it? Marjorie Taylor Green was barely able to do it. So she was, she wants to be governor and Trump endorsed her primary opponent. He endorsed Pam Yvette. for South Carolina governor over Nancy Mace. He said the highly respected and very popular lieutenant governor of South Carolina, Pam Yvette,

America First Patriot, blah, blah, blah, my full and complete endorsement. Yeah, so she's probably going to beat Mace. And Vette from all early polling shows that she would actually beat the Democrat opponent. So Trump totally snubbed her. Mace is mad. Mace is mad.

And she was like, It's the Epstein files that did it. It was the ups. It's because I was asking about the upstain files. It was not at all because you were asking about the Epstein files. Shut up. It's because you can't win an election. That's why.

And then she's been tweeting all of these memes about herself, calling herself the Iron Lady. Look, Nancy Mace, she is the lady who went to the prayer breakfast and was like, I was going to screw my fiance, but I had to get up and come to the prayer breakfast. That's true. We played it on air. It's absolutely true. We literally wound it back and played it like five seconds after it was live because we could not believe she said that.

Remember? We're like, oh, I'm back. And we had to, because it was so over the top, unbelievable. In front of everyone at the prayer breakfast. I was going to see him that I had to get up and come to the prior breakfast. she's also the woman why did she wear the A she wore a scarlet letter Hester's A she literally wore a scarlet letter to Congress one day and she wore like the tightest T-shirt she could

she's very proud of her boobs she wore a tight t-shirt and she walked in the halls of Congress with the big A remember that we're like why is she doing this she then her because her and her fiance are not together anymore they had a really bad breakup and so she then called like made a bunch of accusations about him from the congressional floor. So he can't do anything. He said it was all false. But he can't, he can't litigate against her because she has immunity because they can say whatever on the chamber floor and it's accepted. It's okay. That's, that's, that's, that's considered okay because you're protected. So if she would have said what she said like at a Waffle House,

she probably, he probably would have sued her, but she was on the floor of Congress, so she can't suit. It's just incredibly awkward. And oh yeah, the trans bathroom. Lorraine reminds me. The Scarlet Letter she thinks it was over the trans bathroom stuff. Now, Nancy got her A. She's just cringe. I've heard a lot of stories. That's all I'm saying. Just cringe. But she's getting dragged because she was going, she decided that she was, she was going to go off on Potus and saying that it's because she was very, oh my gosh, Juan got it. Juan found it. How Hester won her A with her scarletters.

She made sure her hair was all curled up. She's going to go out there and talk to all them reporters. And she's mad at Potus because Potus won't endorse her. And so she wanted to run for governor. This is exactly what got MTG in a pickle because Marjorie Taylor Green wanted run for Senate, and she would have lost horrifically. And Trump was like, I'm not stupid. I'm not

going to endorse you. It's a losing campaign. You're not going to win. She didn't want to hear the truth, so she got mad. It wasn't because she could win. It's because Trump and Israel or something. So Marjorie Taylor Green basically blamed, I guess, the Jews on the fact that she didn't poll well and wouldn't win a Senate race. And now she hates

Trump. I don't know. And then they had like an only fans event with Thomas Massey down in Costa Rica. Gross. Burn that boat, by the way. Burn it. All right, we got, we have way more to jump. It's a really weird show today as we move. Let's just get with it. All right, folks, so I want to tell you about something that actually works.

This is the world's number one expanding garden hose and their newest upgrade. It's the pocket hose ballistic. I like anything that has the word ballistic after it. I don't have time for cheap, stupid equipment that fails after one season. I am done fighting with it. I'm done with the kinks. Eric Swalwell, I'm done with the tangles. I'm done with the leaks. I'm done with all of it. It's a waste of money. It's enraging. So that's why the pocket hose ballistic, that's why you need to have this thing because it's built different. I could beat somebody to death with this. It's made, it's reinforced with a liquid crystal polymer. Now, you don't know what that is, but you do know what it's been used in before. Bulletproof vests. So that means, my friends, the strength is real. Real durability. No nonsense. It's not going to mess up your garden. It's not going to like tie a knot around you. If you're tied to replacing your

hose every year, this is your fix. The ballistic is lightweight. It's super easy to handle. And I like what comes with it. It comes with the pocket pivot. So no more fighting the spigot. And ladies, it's gold. Where it moves, you move, you move, it moves. It's so simple. It's smart. You're done. For a limited time when you purchase a new pocket hose ballistic. You're going to get that free. You see it right here. 360 degree rotating pocket pivot. And a free. A free. thumb drive nozzle. Just text Dana to 6430s. That's Dana to 6400 for your two free gifts with purchase. Message and data rates may apply. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick 5.

Oh, yes, tis time. All right. So we haven't even gotten into the Grand Platner stuff. So hold your horses. That's happening. This, okay. So apparently a passenger caused an international. international flight to make a U-turn after using a four-liter word to name his Bluetooth device. You know how you can name your phone, especially if it's a hotspot or something like that? And it can be picked up in red by other devices. So you can see like, oh, Dana's phone or whatever. Somebody on the United Airlines flight to Spain from Newark, they had to turn back. They left her on 6 p.m., turned back about 9.30 p.m.

because the 16-year-old's Fitbit was called bomb. I don't know who I hate more. The morons who thought it was actually a bomb? Really, that's about it. I don't know who I, I think that's, I don't know how, I'm just, I have to evaluate how much I hate them. They said that the device remained online. The flight staff was immediately notified.

The device remained online, even after crew members request to turn Bluetooth off on all devices, and then they turned the flight around. So did he not know how to turn it off on all of the devices? I don't know. They took off again at 2.19 the following morning, 2.19 a.m. I think I would be livid. I think I would be beating people to death, and I would be on television

because I would immediately be taken into jail. Sadly, we didn't die from this. A meteor explodes off the coast of Massachusetts, causing a loud boom. Yeah, boo, so sad. It was the equivalent to about 300 tons of TNT. Yeah, so they said the prelim reports from the American Meteor Society. Everybody saw it 2 p.m. Saturday. Sadly, it didn't kill us all. So, you know, it's not the sweet meteor of death we were hoping for. The African CDC says over 1,100 suspected cases of Ebola and Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. We went through this before. I will, the first person that tries to make me wear a face mask is going to have their endocrine system ripped out through their ear canal by me. So don't. That's, I will tie your esophagus into a bow around your neck. I'm not kidding you. I only, I will choose supreme violence if y'all try this again. I don't care. You can bleed out of your eyes and your backside. I don't care. We're not locking down. Don't care. They said that they had 263 confirmed cases in both countries, the African CDC. So it's always some kind of weird, crazy thing that's popping. I mean, wouldn't we have a bullet? Like five years ago? Yeah. of sleep is fueling a cancer surge in under 50s.

I mean, we've always had a lack of sleep before to say nothing of the clot shots. So I'm sure that that's what it is. I'm sure it's that. Not the, not the clot shots at all. Sure, it's not that. So coming up, Dem's Nazi problem. That more stick with us. Burnagun, I've told you before that I have no problem carrying and throwing lead down

range if I'm protecting my life for that of my loved ones. Burna understands that sometimes you may be deprived of that right. And by deprived, I mean maybe it's a municipal restriction or a private property restriction that's preventing you from defending yourself and being able to carry and exercise your Second Amendment right. And of course, those places never provide security. So what are you going to do? You want to make sure that you have some way of defense. And this is where Berna comes in. It is a solution to that problem. Berna, and they have different models, but the compact launchers, the one that you really need to look for this purpose. CL for short. It's small enough to carry concealed, but it can also, and just like with

all a burner guns, deter threats from up to 50 feet away because it shoots chemical irritant projectiles, gives you distance, gives you some time, and it gives you a chance to get to safety. And it's made right here in the US of A. Now, when you compare it to regular stun guns or tasers, they have maybe one or two rounds. The Burna CL has a 15-round shot capacity per cartridge. So you can visit burner.com slash Dana. Get your Burnagun gun today. And it's a way to diversify your self-defense array. Burna.com slash Dana. Today in stupidity came.

All right. It is Loti Talarico or Tofu Talarico. There's some other names for him out there. He's got a girlfriend, reportedly. Cut 21. This is Talarico. Now listen to this because these are two separate interviews. And if you think he's some sort of organic grassroots candidate, this will prove otherwise.

Listen. Well, you know, I've gone to every corner. of Texas over the course of this campaign from Beaumont to El Paso, from Amarillo or Brownsville, and everywhere in between. And I can't tell you the number of people who come up to me at the end of these events and whisper, I'm not a Democrat, like they're in the witness protection program. Yeah. Yeah.

So organic. You think he rehearsed that a little? So organic. I mean, even like the speed at which he talks is even, oh, I'm telling you what. But folks, that does it for us today. I'm really sorry about the grand platinum stuff. At least I didn't share the worst with you. I'll be back with you tomorrow.

Have a great rest of your night.
