Welcome to the program. If we as a nation do not end the birthright citizenship, if we do not end the relentless chain migration, if we're not passing the SAVE Act and making sure that people are who they say they are when they go and cast a vote, this is not a real sovereign nation anymore. A nation that cannot make determinations about its own borders and its own entry policies is not a sovereign nation. that's that is the behavior of a vassal state that's not a sovereign nation and so it makes zero sense to have this i mean listen to this this is the solicitor general this is cut 24 to scotus earlier today this morning and these were some very good points made and this is one of them listen

we're in a new world now as just as lita pointed out to where eight billion people are one plane right away from having a a child who's a u.s. citizen Well, it's a new world. It's the same Constitution. It is. And as Justice Scalia said, I think in the case that Justice Alito was referring to, you've got a constitutional provision that addresses certain evils and it should be extended to reasonably comparable evils. He said that about statutory interpretation. I think the same principle applies here. And he's right. That's John Sauer, who is the Solicitor General to Scotus in this argument. And he's right. I mean, that's where we are right now completely.

then you had Justice Kintanji Brown Jackson, who is one of, I think, the dullest to people that has ever occupied a seat on the Supreme Court at all. I mean, even Sonia Sotomayor, even Elena Kagan, have been aggravated with her. In fact, I saw yesterday Kagan really fired a shot at her in her. her dissent, Chillas v. Salazar, in which the court ruled that this was the conversion therapy and the court in Colorado was saying, and that's the, I don't know why that term exists, conversion therapy. That's people who are, kids who are confused about their gender. The government

says that now you have to force them to basically get brainwashing about it. Anyway, the court ruled aid to one that Colorado had no business making the counseling illegal or people or talking them out of it, really. But Jackson was the lone dissent, and Justice Kagan's, her concurring opinion, attacks the dissent of Jackson. Let me pull this up really quickly.

It's a short graph. Listen to this. Kagan writes, Justice Jackson's dissenting opinion claims that this is a small or even non-existent category, but even her own opinion when listing laws supposedly put at risk today,

offers quite a few examples. Her view to the contrary rests on reimagining and in that way collapsing the well-settled distinction between the viewpoint-based and other content-based speech restrictions. This is not the first time either that we've seen such a sharp critique of her dissent. and the other thing too is that Jackson's dissent she ruled last year let me pull up my notes she ruled so last year in when she

when she was authoring dissent on a similar case she ruled that states do not have the right to ban the surgical conversion right sex changes ultimately for kids and then today ruled that well today ruled yesterday rather that states do have the right to ban these therapists from telling boys that they are not girls. Make that make

sense. She's not even, she's not consistent. She is not at all consistent in any of this. So that's why it's so unbelievably insane and why you can see some of the very entertaining critiques of her arguments there. But the idea, this birthright citizenship is nothing, how the founders intended. And there's a lot of things that it calls into question with us. So, I don't know. I get the sense that Sotomayor is inclined to agree with the administration. Alito is definitely signaling that he has, even Kagan, even some of Kagan's questioning,

very interesting. And I think that the, I think Sauer, the Solicitor General, is making, I mean, it's, This is a great time to be a law student because you're getting a really excellent presentation of the facts and a really, really great understanding of legal precedent with this. But just let me give you an example of KJP. Should we do 26? Because holy wow, this is bad. Let's do 26 first. I don't know what this example is supposed to mean.

I was thinking about this, and I think there are various sources that say this, that you can have, you obviously have permanent allegiance based on being born in whatever country you're from. That's what everybody recognizes. But you also have local allegiance when you are on the soil of this other sovereign. And I was thinking, you know, I, a U.S. citizen, am visiting Japan. And what it means is that, you know, if I steal someone's wallet in Japan, the Japanese authorities can arrest me and prosecute me. It's allegiance meaning can they control you as a matter of law. I can also rely on them if my wallet is stolen to, you know, under Japanese law, go and prosecute the person who has stolen it.

So there's this relationship based on, even though I'm a temperament, temporary traveler, I'm just on vacation in Japan, I'm still locally owing allegiance in that sense. That is one of the dumbest things that I think that I've ever heard. So, so then if their, if her argument is that they're subject to laws of that nation, then the laws of our nation say they should be deported. I've never seen anyone's cell phone so quickly. That is, she is a DEI hire for the Supreme Court. What did I keep calling her? Do I keep calling her KJP? Contagy Brown Jackson. I mean, they're both dumb. I think that's what gets me. They're both just not intelligent females. Contagy Brown Jackson. KB.J. I keep one of, I might just keep going with

KJP. I cannot believe that was an argument that was made that she said. So, wait a minute, if you get, so if you go to Tijuana and you get pulled over in Mexico, does that mean you're Mexican? I mean, the hell is that mean? What does that even mean? I'm looking at the transcript right now. If I steal a wallet in Japan, I am subject to Japanese laws. In a sense, it's allegiance. Okay, then why? Then make that work here in the United States. Then deport them.

Because those are our laws. Does she not realize that that you can just simply reverse that order? I mean, when I first saw that transcript, I honestly did not think that that was something that she actually made, an argument she made. I thought maybe they were exaggerating it because you know, it's kind of fun to pick on her because she's not bright, but that's legit what she said. If you are committing a crime in Japan, you're in Japan so you're subject to those laws because you're in their territorial sovereignty.

You're under their territorial sovereignty. It's not because you suddenly become Japanese. If you go to Japan and steal a wallet, you are not suddenly Japanese. It just means you committed a crime and because you're on their source. those laws come into play. You're subject to that law, that criminal statute. Man, I think we just missed an opportunity for a turning Japanese man. I think you're right, Steve. I can't believe it. Now, this is where Alito makes the point smarter than KJ, than KTonji, than Kintanji Brown Jackson. This is Justice Alito, giving the example of two foreign nationals having a child and then how that child, where is that allegiance, which is different from what she's talking about, but she's not bright enough to understand that. This is Justice Alito. Listen.

Not subject to any foreign power is pretty straightforward. So let me give you these examples. A boy is born here to an Iranian father who has entered the country illegally. That boy is automatically an Iranian national at birth, and he has a duty to provide military service to the Iranian government. Is he not subject to any foreign power? Not within the meaning of the 1866 Act, Justice Alito. And that's clear from Wong-Kamark, and it's clear from the debates. What the framers meant by the phrase not subject to any foreign power was referring to the ambassador exception. If it meant what the government contends, basically not a subject of any foreign power, that another country considers you a you a sanguine citizen, then lawful permanent residents, all foreign natural...

Well, ordinary public meaning of that would certainly encompass that boy, would it not? Justice Alito, if you think that the language, you think that the language. of the 1866 Act was ambiguous, as Wong Kimmerk says, the shift to the language of the 14th Amendment, which is the operative text, certainly clears up any ambiguity. I mean, in reading the Federalist papers, it doesn't support the argument that it pertains just strictly to ambassadorships. I mean, they had this discussion, Hamilton specifically had this discussion throughout the Federalist papers. And the, in terms of serving in positions of power, et cetera. And they weren't talking specifically in any case, whether or not

you're running for office or not. It wasn't limited to their understanding to strictly ambassadorships. So that's a little misleading from the ACLU's attorney. And I love how Alito pulls this example out because it shows that he thoroughly understands this issue. Whereas Kintanji Brown Jackson's like, well, if I steal a wallet in Japan, it means I'm Japanese. I don't even know what the hell that means. That was literally, that was her argument. She is the weakest link in SCOTUS. It's actually really embarrassing. Our partners at American financing, America's home for home loans, America financing understands it's exhausting to lean so much on credit. But that's what a lot of people have been doing lately. Regular average everyday things now are very expensive,

have been for since Biden Harris, we're trying to get a handle on it. But you're putting it on a credit card and you're essentially paying a survival tax of 20% interest or more.

you got this, not today, yesterday. You got this yesterday. And it is fantastic. And it's called Leave Me Behind. So she's Gen X. She's Baby Gen X. I'm Baby Gen X. And I love what she said here because it gets into the heart of what is happening with social media and how so much of trends are dictated by what happens in the digital space.

But she said the article is called Leave Me Behind. I don't care if the young people like me, she writes, and you shouldn't either. I'm going to read a portion of this to you, but if you can get the newsletter, you should. This is brilliant. She says, I caught clips of Checker Carlson interviewing Nick Fuentes, and the thing that struck me was the body language, she adds. Here was a man who had the biggest show on cable news who once commanded an audience of five million adults sitting across from a 20-something new age shock jock with the energy of a guy trying to impress his son's friends. See how cool I am? See how I'm not afraid to go there? an astute culture commentator, John Gabriel, recently posted on X, quote,

John Stewart embracing Zoran, Tucker embracing Nick, two aging hosts, desperate to impress the young and scared of being left behind. This is Bridget Fetacey's piece that gets into why you're seeing what you're seeing with podcasts and digital spaces. She adds, you start reading the room, it's a long piece that she posted on X, you start reading the room instead of saying what's true. You notice your audience is getting younger, more online, more radicalized, and instead of pushing back with the credibility you spent decades building, you chase them. And every take gets a little edgier, and every interview pushes a little further, and you tell yourself that you're being brave.

But really, you're just performing for an algorithm and a demographic that will forget your name the moment that something edgier comes along. So much of what you're seeing in the media right now is this dynamic playing out, she writes. The battle for market share. Massive legacy turned new media stars recognizing that their Fox News audience is aging and clinging to relevance. New media stars getting older in this space, watching younger, ever more contrarian pundits and podcasters suck up all the energy in the eyeballs. The pick me energy is palpable. So many interviews feel like, See how best and cool I am? she's right. She adds, maybe it's the Gen X in me, but I don't care if the coveted demographic

of 18 to 34-year-olds like me, because they don't know sh about, she says they think they do because they've grown up online with supercomputers in their pockets and cameras in their faces and gentle parenting and because they're young and it's just a function of being in your 20s to think that you know everything. In this way, they're normal. In every other way, though, they're not. She adds, I'm not looking to the youth for wisdom, and I don't care if they look to me for it. If this sounds very get off my lawn, that's how I mean it. Leave me behind. I'm fine with it. The problem with chasing the high of a younger audience, eventually they will turn on you for daring to get old, or as the kids say these days, or would say, quote, old heads don't understand the vision.

She says, My people are not the black-pilled irony poisoned youth who have been stewing in a vat of nihilism, victimhood, and entitlement. She says very few of them read books. Most of them get their news and talking points from TikTok. They have no attention span and they can't make eye contact. She says, this generalization or this generation is like an alien species to me, and mostly I pity them.

A lot of them are also thoughtful. and astute and industrious and curious, and they've been through some stuff too, like multiple economic crises and an apocalypse light in which they had to stay home in PJs and got their brains turned to pudding from a foreign virus

in the form of TikTok content. But the ones everyone in media is contorting themselves to impress are not the thoughtful ones. She says, my audience is late boomer, Gen X, and elder millennials, and some Gen Z dudes who get me. My audience drank out of water hoses,

and by the way, she notes, and this is accurate. If you didn't drink out of water, hosier and our genzy, that's it. She says, we were latchkey kids. I wrote a whole thing about this. She says that, you know, we grew up with many examples of the hero's journey. We all grew up reading, not getting our brain melted

by short form content. She says, I realize this might also be a function of the fact that I got a later start in media and I never really peaked or blew up in the same way that it's hard for an actress to age in Hollywood. She says, I imagine it's hard for pundits who had huge shows on Fox News or Comedy Central to lose relevance as they age.

Bridget Fadacy adds, what happens inevitably is that you start chasing youth, youthful looks, youthful ideas, clinging to the coveted demographic like a tech bro with a blood boy. She says about five years into my career as a writer and media personality, the realization bummed me out. She says, I was reading Stephen Pressfield's The War of Art for the Umpteenth Time. She says this section about territory versus hierarchy jumped out to me. She adds this piece, quote, For the artist to define himself hierarchically is fatal.

The artist must operate territorially. He must do his work for its own sake. To labor in the art for any other reason other than love is prostitution. She says, I don't want that demographic. I don't want to be on TikTok doing dances and dunking on kids. I don't want to learn whatever the new sling is. I'm going to be forced to learn it when my daughter is a teen and I'm in my 50s and she's calling me

whatever the new slang for cringes. And she says, she quotes Robert McKee. A hack, he says, is a writer who second-guess is his audience. And when the hack sits down to work, he doesn't ask himself what's in his own heart. He asks what the market is looking for. Now she adds, and this is important.

The algorithms and analytics of social media have made hacks of everybody. Some more than others. And you can see it if you're paying attention. Many with the biggest megaphones in media are using them to parrot back whatever the coveted demographic already believes. She says, I don't need polls or studies about the percentage of young people left and right who hold anti-Semitic views or support for Israel's collapsing with younger generation. She goes, all I need to do is watch the weather veins, not along, soften their positions, and chase the algorithms. She says, she talks about boomer-com, slop a pejorative that dumb people throw around casually in an online technology.

debate when they don't understand it. She says, whatever, call me out of touch. She goes, I get it. She's like I was a teen once. I understand it. She talks about our grandparents being the depression, et cetera. She goes, the part of platform chasers don't understand is you cannot reason with a 23-year-old out of positions they were algorithmically radicalized into. I want to repeat that. You cannot reason, she writes, with a 23-year-old, it cannot reason them out of positions. they were algorithmically radicalized into. You're not going to win them over by learning their dumb slang and nodding along with their worst impulses.

All you're going to do is lose yourself and your actual audience, the people who showed up because you had something to say. They'll watch you do it in real time. She says, never peaking is kind of a freedom and there's no high to chase, no glory days to recreate, no slide into irrelevance to panic about. There's just the work, territory, not hierarchy.

And you do it because it's yours to do, and you hope the right people find it. And if the coveted demographic thinks you're an old head who doesn't understand the vision, good. I only want to do my work. She says, leave me behind. I'm fine here. Cosine.

Because all of these people, who are older than us, all these people from Fox News, like a decade or more older than us, actually some of them 15 years older than us, are debasing themselves by chasing people they would never go to for guidance. Debasing themselves by chasing the worst peripheral fringe of a demographic just because they're the loudest. There is a certain sadness in that because you recognize the desperation. You can almost smell it. I mean, you recognize the prostitution in it. And you recognize that people that you once respected

that you thought were thoroughly researched. Once they get outside of that safe avenue of the America's bubble, they just dissolve. They degrade. They turn into slop. And nobody's the better for it. And nobody should want to emulate it. least of all people who are trying to be influential in their own right. You know how most makeup

makes you look done, but not necessarily like yourself? I get so tired of products that cover everything up and it leaves product on my skin and it makes it dry and cakey and makes you feel like you're wearing a mask. So that's why I tried Jones Road Beauty's miracle bomb. You just warm up a small amount of product with your fingertips, you tap it on your cheeks, on your lips. You can even put a little bit on your eyelids if you want for some color. And it gives you this effortless clean girl glow instead of that heavy makeup mask. And it can also replace so many steps and products. Like think of it, highlighter, bronzer, blush, your lip tint, but it's all in one little jar. No brushes, no 20 frillion step routine. I mean, it's great for busy mornings or school drop off or travel. If you got like an

early morning flight, you want to look nice but not overdone or when you're running around after a workout and you just, you know, want to look fresh. And the best. And the best. part is that Jones Road's formulas are clean, so they look natural and they feel like you're wearing next to nothing. Bring out your natural glow instead of hiding it with Jones Road.

And after you purchase, they'll ask where you heard about them. And please support the Dana show and tell them that I sent you. Speaking of Britain, we talked about this a little earlier, well, like last week,

I think. They're having a major problem in Britain because of their, how do I put it, they think that they have to diversify rural areas. Now, what does that mean? Well, the government of Kirstama, as you know, they've got speech regulations and all kinds of other regulations. And now they think that the rural areas, hmm, they're not very diverse, are they? So they've been after, like for instance, they've had British government going after farmer inheritance and trying to increase fees for passing

land to, you know, the next family member, etc. They've been going after dogs. They've, and they love dogs, by the way. They have been dealing with this because out in rural areas, everybody has got a dog. They hunt, they got dogs, you know, they have it. And apparently that's considered Haram. And I was looking at this piece.

It was BBC Telegraph, et cetera. They're trying to get dog-free zones in London and elsewhere. And the BBC came out with a piece saying that the UK needed to have less dogs, fewer dogs probably. Because it's, and they try to articulate. that it's, oh, we need dog-friendly spaces, but really it's driven by Islamism, because there's been a lot of articles about how the rural parts of Britain are not, they're not welcoming to basically Muslims and they have too many dogs. Muslims don't like dogs. That's literally what the BBC and other publications in Britain have been reporting. I just kind of want to pull my hair out reading

this. I feel like in the United States, can I just say that John Wick was a dog movie? It was a movie about dogs, just as much as old yelor was a movie about dogs, just as much as where the red fern grows. So really, you have, in the canon of great dog films, you've got where the red firm grows, you got Old Yeller, and you've got the John Wick franchise because it was about his dog that was, you know, murder, the dog that he got from his wife. Just saying, I don't think something like that would fly here in the United States. There was one, I mean, there's video of people who are whether they're not totally in the country, but if they've been in, you know, more urban areas.

Like, for instance, there was one woman, she was walking her dog. She was told to leave the area by a British police person and the little yellow coat and the little checkered, you know, a little checkered hat because her Islamic, the Islamic migrants in the neighborhood don't like dogs. That was verbatim what was told to her. One of the other, over at BBC,

one of the main problems in the countryside is dogs. And they were saying that Muslims avoid going there because people walk their dogs, and that's Haram and Islam. And the British countryside. So the British countryside is racist because they have dogs. And then they ran, what is this? Let me pull this up. And yet another piece, should Britain reduce the amount of dogs that it has? Is Britain too dog friendly?

There's a whole series on the BBC right now where it says, have we become too dog friendly? And they talk about everybody from the countryside to retailers allowing dogs on the premises and how it's considered rude. By whom? This isn't about dogs. This is about the British culture. This has nothing to do with dogs. It has nothing to do with people being nervous about them. It has nothing to do with them violating some sort of religious whatever.

This is because it represents a portion of British culture. that must be annihilated. This is like the color revolution, what Mao did. You got to get rid of everything that represented old Chinese culture. And it must be replaced by CCP idolatry. And that's exactly what they're doing here, what they're trying to do in Britain. I mean, dogs are part of quintessential British culture. I mean, there's a whole story of the Mary Queen of Scots.

And when she was beheaded, there was a dog in her skirts. I mean, there's the whole thing. this is about going after British culture, what that represents, and having to apologize for what your culture represents it to stand in. This is a way of mentally conquering a people. You're mentally conquered, and then you're physically conquered. So the BBC, I mean, literally, they asked, the BBC said, so has it all gone too far? That was literally one of the questions that they asked in their series. and the telegraph ran it, oh my gosh, there's all these sorts of, there's all these stories.

It is not about dogs. And it's not even about accessible countryside. It is about an attack on British culture. And people like Kirstromer, they just roll over and accept it. Oh, okay, I guess we'll just have to take it. No, go pound sand. I always tell people, I have dogs. I have big dogs. If you don't like dogs, don't come to my property. My dogs live here. You don't. I look at it like that. In the British countryside, it's Britain. They love dogs. If you don't like dogs, don't go there. The British countryside. They all have dogs. If you don't like dogs, don't go there. By the way, I just realized every single British person I know has at least an dog, one dog. Every British person I know has one dog. They really love dogs. And so now you're seeing this clash where you're

you have the people who have immigrated in, many of them illegally, who dislike that aspect of culture and they want to change it. No, we're not, you can acclimate or leave. I don't know why people feel the need to apologize for their culture, to apologize for completely innocuous things that are totally fine that they do as part of their country culture. It's a mental conquering first. And then everything else. Burn a gun B-Y-R-N-A. Now, I always carry, I have no problem using the lethal force, but I also realize that there are times when you are disabused of your ability to protect yourself. You are disenfranchised. You are denied your Second Amendment right because of whether it's private property or local or municipal restrictions because we do believe in private property rights. But it's always interesting how those entities never at all give you armed security to make up for you being unable to be. your own security. So what do you do? I mean, you've got to be able to have some way to protect yourself, some way to buy yourself time to get to safety. This is where the burn a gun comes in. They have

different models. I don't care about any of them except for the compact launcher. CL, because we're talking about self-defense in these situations, this is exactly what it was made for. The CL, first off, the burner gun shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away. Compared to tasers or stun guns, you got one or two rounds. The burn a Cs, has a 15 round shot capacity per cartridge. And it's easy to use. There's no recoil, really easy to require target. And it doesn't care about gun-free zones because it's not a gun, right? It's about the size of the iPhone, so it's concealable, and it's not a gun. So it doesn't care about any gun-free zone signs. There's no background checks. There's no waiting periods. You just buy it

online and they send it to your door. This is also a great option for college kids, not old enough to carry. I mean, overseas they can, which is bizarre. But They can't protect themselves here. So you should check out a burner gun for those instances, too. Burna CL, compact launcher. Visit burno.com slash Dana and check out the Burna CL and the accessories. B.RNA.com slash Dana. Ready when you are.

If you look at the original birthright citizenship papers, they all happened right after the Civil War. The reason was it had to do with the babies of slaves. And hopefully it's going to say, because our country is being. We're getting all of these people. They're selling the rights to them. People are making a living, a big living, getting hundreds of thousands and even millions of dollars from bringing people in and saying, congratulations. Your whole family is going to be a citizen of the United States of America. Yeah. And he's right with us. He's absolutely right with us. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. We are at the top of this third.

hour. Now a programming note, just so you know, this is my Friday, so I'm taking I will be back behind the mic after Easter on Tuesday, taking a little time. Since we aren't flying anywhere and doing anything, no,

I ain't going to do nothing like that for spring breaks. We're just taking a few days and having some time with family. In the meantime, you know you can still follow along because I'll be on social media and substack, I'm sure. POTUS is right with us and it's going to very interesting to see how this all breaks down and what SCOTUS ultimately, what determination

they make with us. Because none of this, I mean, to us, obviously, we see that this is not something that can make sense, this idea of birthright citizenship and being able to just, I mean, we see it abused, especially the stories that we've had with Chinese nationals that come over and And then they end up birthing babies in the United States, and then they raise them back in CCP China, and then they come back, and then they're fully communist. And you're going to have here soon a new generation where there are thousands of these kids that are going to be voting in our elections.

That's incredibly important. It's asymmetrical warfare. And the fact that we can't – look, a country that cannot make determinations about its own territory and its borders. and its entry protocol is not a free nation. That is not a nation that has afforded any kind of sovereignty. You're a vassal state at that point. So this needs to be reasserted.

Now, in the meantime, I saw this piece, Lorraine flagged this, Trump has warned he's going to halt any kind of weapons deliveries through NATO's European-funded weapons procurement program for Ukraine and potentially withdraw U.S. support from Ukraine entirely unless they step up and help free themselves with the Strait of Hormuz. According to Financial Times, I think that's an excellent move. POTUS is playing hardball, and I am here for it. This is what I want to see. This is what you want to see. And that makes sense. If NATO is not going to step up, excuse me, and do anything to help themselves, why the hell should we? So he's saying, look, we're going to halt all the, I mean, we'll just, we can end it.

He's even said we could even end it without the straighter war moves. I don't think that people understand what victory necessarily looks like for the United States. The United States is simply trying to box out China. Everyone else is not seeing this or they're choosing not to see it so they can argue for this communist multipolarity. But what victory is, looks like for some may not necessarily, that may not actually be what the point is. The point actually is boxing out China, just like with Venezuela, Panama,

going down to Argentina, making enroads there, whether it's that or whether it's now looking at Greenland and then also boxing them out of the strait. I mean, I think that's, I mean, he's having to push NATO. NATO is worthless if NATO members that could not have even been prevailed upon to put a minimum percentage of their GDP towards defense,

if they can't even help free the pipeline through which their energy comes through, not ours, but theirs. What's the point in NATO? You have all these countries talking big, well, we're not going to allow help or support. Well, you couldn't help her support anyway. We're not asking Britain to help her support

because Britain can't, because their progressive government has made them into eunuchs. The Great Britannia is no more. The people who owned the seas do not exist. It is done. Times have changed. Now they can either be part of the solution or they can be part of the problem, but there's only two choices. There's no gray area. There's no non-participant observer status. That's all it is. So the media is going to try to argue, oh my gosh, this is true. Look at Trump. is he's being so mean to our NATO allies. This is not the behavior of an ally.

It's not the behavior of an ally. When does the United States ever refuse a request for accommodation? Europe was begging the United States. Get involved in Ukraine. Get involved in Ukraine. We didn't want to, us conservatives, we didn't see the point of it.

I still don't. Doesn't affect my national security. Does my energy go through there? Is that my breadbasket? No. I mean, I don't like communists. But in terms of immediately affecting national security, you can't make the argument that it did.

I mean, China is not trying to get that much of an en route there. What are they going to do? And I will say, Ukraine's never said they were going to bomb us. They never said they wanted to nuke us into oblivion. They never called us the Great Satan, just, you know, throwing that out there. But Europe demanded that we get involved. Oh, please, the United States. If we didn't, then they tried to browbeat us at every opportunity.

So he's right. If you're not going to help with this, we're not going to help with that. Because we were only helping for you. Why the hell should we do it anymore? I think this is fantastic. So good for Trump for doing this. That takes some balls to do it. I don't see any downside to this.

In fact, the more I talk about, the more I like it. Exactly. So this is exactly what should have been fine, then press them. Oh, but you're allowing Russia to win. You're allowing China to win. And what's good? Can go either way. It's more beneficial for the United States to control the straight than to have China there exerting influence and dominance, like they were trying to do in Panama, by the way. Oh, boy, they're going to try to make this a big deal with them, aren't they? Now, in the meantime, I'm going to pull up a couple of other things that I have for you here. because we've got some domestic issues. And then we've got a course,

ooh, we got the Artemis launch. I think that's huge. Maybe it's because social media and people don't get all of their information from television. But is this, Steve, does this seem like it should be a way bigger deal than it is?

Or am I just, I just feel like this is the first time in what, how many years? That we're literally going to lunar orbit. And, yeah. Like, I feel like this should be a huge thing. The whole country should be watching this tonight. I mean, not by force, but I'm, I'm going to be watching this tonight. This is fascinating. So they said that it's going to kick off at 6.24 p.m. Eastern time. So about 5.30. And it's still a go. The weather is currently 80% favorable. that this all looks i mean think about it just look we're sending people to lunar orbit nobody else is we've decimated iran the mullahs are gone they're having to scrape the go dig into the couch cushions for change we have air supremacy they're just trying to hold on to the straight but it's not going to last much longer even the drones that they're using so i had a count let me pull this up i had a count

Even the drones that they're using are decreasing in number. They're running out of drones, and they're starting to have to be very careful about how much they're using and where, which I'm fine with that. But we had Venezuela, and now this, this is all nice. Like we still have the time. We're still batting around in the straight, and we have the time to do that. I think this is all good. This makes it look nice. Now we just need to get our economy in check.

A couple of things. So this, by the way, the Artemis mission, 10-day mission, no lunar landing. So if you were hoping for a lunar landing, that's not going to happen. But they're planning on it in 2028, which is significant. So that's also, Supreme Court, we were talking about the birthright citizenship. Did you see that POTUS wants to sit in on these, the oral arguments? It's not unusual. He had attended the Supreme Court hearing on birthright citizenship, making him the first president to attend oral arguments at the nation's highest court.

Now, the left was losing their minds over this. Oh, my gosh, separation of church and state. There were people actually arguing that, and I don't understand how that works. Do you know that the president's completely welcome to attend Supreme Court hearings? In fact, I remember learning in school that there's like literally a chair for him to sit in. I didn't know it was still there until Harmeet Dillon said yesterday, yeah, there is a chair that's for the president of the United States, whoever that is. And they can sit in and attend these at any time. It's like literally part of the protocol.

It's not unusual. Or it's not, it's only unusual in that he's like one of the first ones to want to do it. But it literally was factored into that. And everyone's acting like this is Trump, bringing the big hand of government down. I'm always fascinated by the people who defended bypassing all of the security protocols to get a surveillance warrant from a FISA court on average American citizens to be worried about the heavy hand of government. But here we are. So he's showing up.

I mean, it was never supposed to be a giveaway. It was never supposed to be. So I'm glad that he's there. If you have two people who are illegal aliens, they don't produce an American. citizen. That's not how that works. That's not how it should work. It's a scam. It is an absolute scam. The United States should not be allowing it. And we need Congress to stop bickering over the SAVE Act, pass it, and then do the job of getting something like this passed. Of course, that comes down to all of us and voting, and this is where I'm going with midterms.

All the people complaining about government, I see them setting themselves up to get more of the same, if not worse. People are already bitching and moaning and talking about taking their ball and going home, and it's only a few. Mostly it's the podcast to Stan Brose, but they're trying to convince you of this as well. I want you to imagine how much worse it would get with Democrats in charge. Packing the Supreme Court. Can you imagine Supreme Court oral arguments like the stuff that we were hearing today with a PAC Supreme Court?

Imagine a ton more Kintanji Brown Jackson's on that bench. Just imagine, because I guarantee you that is exactly what's going to happen if we lose midterms. You're going to see impeachment pollution. is a PAC Supreme Court. Everything's going to be frozen, and then they're going to welcome in a Democrat in 28. The borders will be wide open, and then that's it. That's why I'm saying whatever Trump is doing right now in terms of foreign policies, the last chance the West is ever going to have in our lifetimes to do anything. Our partners that help bring you the program, it's the folks over at

Superbeats. We've talked about human and their Superbeats for a long time. Now, they were founded out of the UT Health Science Center built on real cardiovascular research around blood flow and nitric oxide.

We had this huddling for you yesterday. This is tonight. It's expected to kick off at 6.24 p.m. Eastern. So 524 Central from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. They're launching four astronauts on a journey, deep space around the moon, lift off from Cape Canaveral. So you have NASA astronauts. you have, they're going to be the first people, these four, since the Apollo 17 and

1972. That was 50 years ago. Now, they've already been starting. It's a very, you know, long, drawn out multi-step process preparing for it. This is a 10-day mission. It does not include a lunar landing. They're saying that it's a step towards a landing that they're planning in 2028 and eventually towards NASA's goal of establishing a long-term presence on the moon and building a base there. Now, when they circle the moon, the Artemis two crew members will reach a greater distance from Earth than anyone has before. So this is super exciting stuff. There's a lot of stuff happening. So you have the Artemis 2. Then you have POTUS, who is also speaking tonight, presumably from the White House, obviously I'm thinking Oval Office, about the latest with Iran.

So interesting stuff. This is disgusting, though, this headline. Headless human bodies could replace lab animals for scientific testing. They say it's a great source of organs. I don't know how I feel about this. This seems a little bit, but it's the latest with a small group of scientists. They're looking to replace lab animals with living organ sacks grown from human cells. R3Bio, a billionaire-backed biotech startup. They're committed to designing total organ systems that they're using in R&D for drugs and even potentially tissues and organs for humans. They're in San Francisco, which I don't know why that would surprise anybody, but they're trying to eliminate animals suffering by replacing the use of lab animals with these systems. Now, I mean, if you're just growing tissue and it's not,

I mean, I think that's one thing. Also, I just think maybe if you're on death row, that would be, I don't know, just saying. So they said that these brain-free organ sacks, they've got a lot of investors. So interesting stuff. We have a lot more on the way. Stick with us as we roll towards the conclusion of our program.

And all of that being thrown aside for the pursuit of yet another regime change war. And it's a war that should be opposed on every single ground, not just procedural, but also moral, but also political. Well, I don't, I never want to fall into agreement with Mandani on anything. Zoray Mandani, of course he's upset over this because he doesn't want to see the West prevail. And that's increasingly what it's becoming. I will say this. The Iranian ballistic missile launches have decreased dramatically. they had 350 on day one.

We're on day 31 and they had three. Day one, they had 350. Day four, they had 50. Day eight, they had 15. Today, three. They're running out of launchers. They're running out of missiles. They're running out of everything.

They're running out of all of it. So I'm just saying, and I'm sure that they have, you know, obviously they had the ones that were 4,000, kilometers instead of the 2000, as they told, you know, we told everybody, you can't trust the Iranians. But I don't know how anyone, people telling you that the West is losing or that the United States is losing this, you should be highly suspicious of these people. I don't know how you can look at this stuff and think, look at anything. I mean, yes, it's the garbage media. But even sifting through that, there's no way that you can see that, oh, well, it's a loss.

Air supremacy, decimation of leadership. I mean, complete, not total destruction of nuclear capability, but they took a hit and trying to break down now their missile stockpile. And then you've got Arab allies that are trying to get enough resources together to also push back. So this is, I mean, it's incredibly significant. And then China's livid because they rely on the strait for the, actually, they get the biggest chunk of their energy, their oil through the Strait of Hormuz.

But I like what POTUS said to Europe. Well, if you're not going to help here, we're going to consider getting out of Ukraine. No, no more help for Ukraine. Boy, does that put Europe in a weird spot. You love to see it. It's about time some of these other nations stop the ingratitude. That's what I can't stand. It's a lack of gratitude.

Disloyalty and a lack of gratitude. or two of my biggest pet peeves, and NATO's violating all of them right now. All right. Today in stupidity, what do we got? All right. Seems like it's the same cast of characters. Nancy Pelosi, cut 15.

Hillary Clinton was better than you thought she was. Go ahead, Juan. I think Hillary Clinton was a misgoing first place, the most qualified person of the generation, more qualified than her husband, more qualified than George W. Bush, more qualified than Barack Obama. They all admit that.

Bush doesn't, but the others admit that, certainly more qualified than the creature that is there now. The creature, the creature that is there now. I mean, will it kill you to just be nice, just to be polite, just to be civil, especially considering everything that that party did back in 2016, that wasn't nice or civil to voters? I tell you what, folks, I hope you have a wonderful, amazing Easter, and remember why we have. this observance. He has risen. I will be back behind the mic on Tuesday. So we'll have a great fill in and you'll be set for the weekend. And you can find me on Substack as well as YouTube, Facebook, like and subscribe. I'll be back with you on Tuesday. God bless.
