New stations that needs Brendan Carr to give a seal of approval a stamp so that they can break a rule, a current an FCC rule saying that they can't own, nobody can own more than enough TV stations that reach more than 39% of the American people. That's the rule right now. For Nextar to buy this $6.2 billion competitor, they need Brendan Carr to be like, no, no, forget that. We'll get rid of that rule. So NextR, as you note, sees Brendan. car is signaling he wants local media to stop carrying this speech and this speaker that Trump doesn't approve of. Got it. Got the message. And we saw what happened. And this is, it's a direct violation of the First Amendment because it is the government telling companies

what to do with the implicit threat of he said, we can do this the easy way or we can do this the hard way. Glad I was muted for that little part. Yeah, me too. Glad, yeah, very glad that I was muted for that little part. The ongoing, you know, I'm trying to sort of figure out, you know, why they think that this is in any way, an FCC issue. And what galls me is that there were some people on the right that were trying to push this stupid nonsense. Like, oh, well, it was the FCC that was the, they were the ones that ran him off. When if you're listening, it sounds like, and I can't even believe I'm citing Jake Tapper, but still, though, if you're listening, it sounds like this was a business decision from the local stations. And I mean, good grief. This was, that's exactly what this was. This wasn't the FCC. I mean, I don't think that the FCC is not.

Next Star and Sinclair and all of those. It's not who the FCC is. Welcome to the show. It's Friday in Texas. The temperature is hot. There's no fall here. I'm going to complain about that a little bit later because I'm tired of all my girlfriends going. I'm going to get me a pinkie candy.

Anyway. So there's a couple of pieces that I have over at Substack. I bet get into all of this. And we're going to dive into some of it because I don't know if you saw. a lot of this yesterday. I had tweeted about some of this as well. The Liz McDonald had broke this. She broke the story. You know, Liz is over at Fox News. She's a great reporter. She broke some of this. And I had tweeted about it and wrote about some of this yesterday as it relates to the decision that ABC and Sinclair Next Star made, which by the way, that's not a

permanent decision. I feel like not a lot of people are noting this. They had said that, in fact, it came out today, I'm pulling this story up right now because it's a new story. But in fact, they made it known today that, you know, if he rolls it back, if he rolls back his assinine rhetoric, they would be willing to put him up. They put him back up, putting him back on. So I'm not quite sure why, again, people keep saying that that's a free speech issue. I want to note that when he said the comment that he said, he wasn't making a joke. And I'm really taking offense that the way it's characterized. Now, they made a joke. He made a joke in his monologue later, but that wasn't a joke. There was a lie. And he wasn't even trying to be funny. Not that he is,

but he wasn't trying to be in that instance. So I think people need to stop saying he was trying to make a because he wasn't. He just came out and said just a flat out lie and then he kept going with it. But some of the latest is that apparently he's told by ABC and the local stations that, well, if he rolls it back, they would reconsider reinstating him. Because remember, it was only ever a suspension. It was a suspension. He was told to apologize. Page 6 has this. He was told to apologize to Kirk's family.

This was by the local stations. And to make a donation to lift the on-air stations. suspension and he refused to do so. This is according to page six. Page six is pretty well-placed sources, I just got to say. And Sinclair said, quote, that they will not lift the suspension of his show on their stations until formal discussions are held with ABC regarding the network's commitment to professionalism and accountability. And they also demanded that he issued a direct apology to Kirk's family and they said that if he makes a meaningful personal donation to the Kirk family in Turning Point USA. Now, I don't think he's got to donate to Turning Point USA. I think it would be a

nice gesture if he donated to the Kirk family, but I don't know if they necessarily need it. I think that an apology is absolutely what's needed. I think that would go great for, you know, making that first step towards the unity that they're all clamoring about. They're all talking about. making a step towards that unity. But that said, he apparently doesn't want to do any of this. And they've even, so this is not a, this is not like he's not suspended. He's, or he's, he's, he's not fired. He's suspended. And he's got a way back, but he just doesn't really want to take it. So what does that tell you? I mean, to me, that tells you everything that you need to know. This was about him being a jack wagon. So they told him, they've said, look, we want you to deescalate.

Disney bosses. They said they want Jimmy Kimball to de-escalate. This is according to one of the latest stories before they put him back on air. They're scrambling to convince him to tone down his rhetoric. Again, I will remind you, he went out and said that it was a MAGA person that killed Kirk. And then he made fun of it all. Actually, he didn't make fun of it because that implies that he made a joke. He just ran his mouth and was a jack wagon.

And then later on in the show, he made some jokes. but he went out there purposefully with the intent to inflame. And two, he knew what he was saying was a lie because it all came out that the guy was banging a dude who dresses as a furry and IDs as trans. So, you know, at that point, we kind of all knew, right? So he's got a clear path forward and he doesn't want to take it. Apparently, it was absolute just disgust from viewers. And I've seen this a number of times.

People were absolutely disgusted over. this. Now, is it a great look for Brendan Carr over at the FCC to gloat about it? I don't know. I don't really give a rat's ass because somebody got shot in the damn neck and everybody's pissed off about Brendan Carr getting upset or joking about it. Some of these people need to check their priorities. And that includes some of these contrarian-ass grifters on the right who are aiding and abetting the left with this stupid narrative because they're a bunch of thirsty famehors and they want clicks. And I'm so tired of that brain-dead, brain-wrought thinking. good night.

Stop helping the left. And that's exactly what this was. So it wasn't Brendan Carr. So back to that question. Should he have said what he said? I don't care. Somebody got shot in the neck and everybody's over here rearranging chairs

on the USS America Titanic culture. I don't even have words. Well, I don't like the way he joked about it. Oh my gosh. Go do something unflattering. yourself. You didn't like it. Somebody got shot in the neck. Oh, somebody, oh, you don't like that they're making Jimmy Kimmel apologize. Somebody got shot in the neck. You don't like that Brendan Carr made a joke and said, well, and quoted that Matthew McConaughey movie with the Dragons. What the hell was that

movie called? Can't look that up because it's going to bother the hell out of me. Where he was like, we can make this easy or we can make this real easy. That's an old quote. I mean, clearly, you know, I get that we've got culturally tone deaf people who don't even realize that he was actually making like that was a quote from a famous matthew mccanahe movie and that was a major line in it and he went out and fought dragons and it was like mad max butt with dragons anyway no it was not how to train your dragon the animated children's film cane it was mcane it was it was matthew mconeh and he's like we can make this easier we can make this real easy and it's when he's getting ready to go into this guy's stronghold christian bail was in it as well

and so it was like him and Christian Bail, right? Anyway, long story short, that's where that's where that quotes from. So all these people are like, that's a threat. But they won't say that Charlie Kirk getting shot in the neck was a political execution, that that was an assassination. But Brendan Carr quoting a damn Matthew McConaughey movie is, that's a threat. But again, Charlie Kirk getting shot in the neck, not an assassination. He had it coming, you know, because he was a dirty conservative cane. Did you find that movie you did, didn't you? Rain of fire. Rain of fire. Thank you, sir. Rain of fire. It is a quote. from that movie and he's all like dirty and he shows up and Christian Bills open in the door to his weird little you know mad max fort and he's like I don't know if I want to let you in you look suss and this is not the direct dialogue and Matthew McCona he's like well you know I'm coming in and we can do this easier we can do this real easy so that was this quote that's what Carr's talking about it for anyone to sit here and go oh my gosh that's direct evidence that the Opsis C's involved shut up my gosh that's not even accurate look I don't even and I got somebody who got all but hurt about this because Because I don't even quite totally agree that the FCC should exist. I understand that we have to regulate, you know, ham operators, we've got to regulate airways for certain things.

I get that. But the FCC goes far and beyond that. That's my point. Like, it's not even, the agency is not even functioning in its original designated capacity at the time of its inception. I'm sure that we would all agree with that. It is exceeded far beyond that. And I like that, you know, I like Brennan Carr and everything. No offense.

But I'm a little bit, again, two steps above anarchy with this stuff. That said, if there's evidence that there was co. coercion. If there's evidence that Brendan Carr and I asked him to his face twice in two different ways yesterday, I always, like some of these questions, I always try to ask in a very nonchalant, benign way, and then I'll follow up and ask more directly. And both times, no, he did not personally get involved, nor did anyone else in the administration. But do they have to? Again, a guy was shot in the neck. Do they have to get involved? Or do you think that people that are watching this, you know,

oaf who's on ABC making jokes about the, this, you know, the next generation's JFK, maybe they thought it was in bad taste and they got a lot of feedback. Oh no, that can't happen because the left thinks that everyone loves them. They think that everyone worships

every thought that falls out of their backside. They think that their opinions are untouchable because they are sacrosanct. It did not even dawn on them that people were like, wow, that's in bad. taste. Maybe I'm going to call my local station and object to the airing of what this was not a joke. It was just literally malicious rambling. Enough people said something. So you had an administration in the FCC who didn't even have to do anything because Jimmy Kimmel did it to himself.

And just because you had some, and by the way, Sinclair is kind of right leaning. I know Sinclair. I've worked with Sinclair and stuff before. Great organization. They're not lefties. Why in the world would anybody be shocked by this? Next star. They're not lefties. They're not really righties. But they also don't like bad taste and they don't like maliciousness. Why is anybody shocked over this?

Someone does something stupid at their job and they get in trouble. News at 10 must be the FCC, said all the people that wanted you to believe that an experimental injection was going to stop transmission and then, oh, no, it doesn't. the same people who told you that the laptop was fake wanted you to believe that the administration and the FCC caused this the same people who told you 15 days to slow the spread wanted you to believe that the administration and the FCC did this and I am mad because these morons are making me defend the FCC and I don't want to all right it's my best Howard Dean we got a boatload to come because I want to do a flashback for you because these Free Speech Warriors.

Do you remember, let me just lay this out. We're going to come back to this after our headlines. Do you guys remember the left that loves free speech so much? Kane, I know you're going to remember this. Do you guys remember when they literally got a clown band from the rodeo for life? Because the clown made fun of Obama. They banned a clown. We're going to come back to that.

John Stewart's taking, oh, he's taking over the daily show desk after Kimmel's, nobody cares. Nobody is, oh my gosh, they're all going, you know what? So much of that is, is generations don't care because they're old. Nobody watch. them. My generation, and I'm baby Gen X, we barely watched them. Millennials don't watch them. Gen Z doesn't watch. They don't know

Although, is that technically anime? It is. It looks very computery. It was good. It was very good. Was it good? Even in anime, like series type anime, you'll see some of that CGI type animation. Yeah, but it's very subtle. This is really good. I've already seen it, two and a half hour movie, it's crazy.

This is kind of like physical auto tune. So you did like it? The K-pop Demon Hunters? Okay. So K-pop Demon Hunter sets another record. Netflix now has the longest streak of any original streaming movie in Nielsen's top 10. By the way, if you haven't checked out like manga or anime, it's literally the most conservative stuff that's out there. It is so not politically.

correct and it is very very very very not leftist just FYI so I'm going to have to check that out by the way demon slayers now in theaters which I'm going to have to go and see because I haven't seen it yet all right in the meantime also oh here's a stupid headline about how your coffee habit could ruin your health I don't care a man in his 30s wrote a roller coaster to death at universal theme park that's the better way to do this months after it opened a man in his 30s passed away he was writing a much loved roller coaster, passed away on the roller coaster at one of their new amusement parks.

There's no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech and especially around our democracy. There are Americans who are engaged in this kind of propaganda. And whether they should be civilly or even in some cases criminally charged is something that would be a better deterrent. If people go to only one source and the source they go to is sick, and uh... you know has an agenda and they're putting out disinformation

uh... our first amendment stands as a major block it's really hard to govern today this is a matter of corporate responsibility twitter should be held accountable and shut down that site it is a matter of safety and corporate accountability the first amendment is not absolute it does not protect any single thing anyone says and there are limits and that's important and what this committee has been trying to do for the last year and a half is to chill the federal government from monitoring what is

going on on social media. When you look at what Tucker Carlson and some of these other folks on Fox do, it is very, very clearly incitement of violence, very clearly incitement of violence. I believe that when it comes to broadcast television like Fox News, these are subject to federal law, federal regulation, in terms of what's allowed on air and what isn't. My biggest concern is that your view has the First Amendment hamstringing the government in significant ways. Wow, those are the big free speech advocates, guys. You remember those people? Because maybe they don't, but we do.

That's pretty wild. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. We're at the bottom of this first hour. You can watch us do the radio program on Channel 347 DirecTV. The chat is also at Rumble, and you can find us on X and Facebook as well. So I wanted to do a flashback. I got a number of flashbacks for you to touch on because, you know, these are the big,

these are the big free speech warriors, right? Do you remember, I tweeted about this, do you guys remember this story? And it was some time ago. This was back when Barack Obama was his re-election, I don't even remember at this point. May have been his reelection. But there was a rodeo in Missouri. And at this rodeo in Missouri, there was a guy who, you know, rodeo Klein. You have rodeo clines of rodeos, right?

He walked out and he has a history of walking out in a presidential mask of whatever, okay, so he wears an office, of whatever president is in office. He, this rodeo clown has a history of walking out in these presidential masks. I wrote about this at the time. And this was back in, gosh, 2011. It was some time ago. Or 23. Well, no, this was even before then, I think. I think I had listed it in a roundup. Anyway, the left was, as you can imagine, was apoplectic when this rodeo clown at the Missouri State Fair, at a state fair in the state of Missouri when this rodeo clown came out and he was wearing an Obama mask. Now keep in mind, this guy had repeatedly gone out in numerous rodeos wearing different presidential masks. He had done it tons of times before. He had worked. He had worked.

wearing a Bush mask. He had worn a Clinton mask. He had worn an H.W. Bush mask. He wore an Obama mask. The left was so enraged that they canceled the rodeo clown. They got him fired and they got him banned for life from the rodeo at the state fair. So that's the free speech loving left. I don't know if you guys remember this story. I wrote about at the time, and this was back in 2009. And it actually began when Barack Obama was running for his first term in Missouri. And this was one of the two bigger, one of the two bigger stories that I had broken at the time. And I was still local radio in St. Louis. And I found that somebody had tipped me off that you had Bob McCullough, who was a county prosecutor. And you might remember that name because he was also the prosecutor

tasked with going after Darren Wilson in the wake of Mike Brown. And he was not. And he was not able to successfully do it. He's a far lefty. And he and Jennifer Joyce, another of the county prosecutors in Missouri in St. Louis County, and a Democrat sheriff, they formed what they called Obama's, well, what was, became known as Obama's Truth Squad. And in the Obama Truth Squad, they were literally threatening anybody who was being critical of Obama in a way that they deemed to be dishonest. And involved in this was a woman named Buffy Wicks, and she ran Obama's Missouri campaign. So Buffy Wicks was colluding at the time with two of St. Louis's highest profile prosecuting attorneys, both Democrats, and they were threatening to target anyone who dared to

spread misinformation about then-candidate Obama with their quote-unquote Obama true squad. They even made an ad about it. And they aired it on local news and they scrubbed it immediately because people were just, they couldn't believe what they were hearing. Now, that's, that's what the left did. KMAVee Channel 4 in St. Louis was one of the first ones to report it. And they, and I'm glad that they did. They were one of the most honest ones at the time. They joined Glenn Boyer. You remember him, Kane? He was the Jefferson County Sheriff, Democrat Glenn Boyer. They were threatening to invoke Missouri ethics laws against anybody that they deemed spreading misinformation. But their definition of misinformation was vague. McCullough said, quote, if they're not going to tell the truth,

somebody's got to step up and say, that's not the truth. This is the truth. And they will be reminding voters, this was their whole thing, that Barack Obama is a Christian who wants to cut taxes. Now, this came after Phil Berg, who was an attorney for Hillary Clinton, went out sensationally and claimed that Barack Obama was basically an illegal immigrant and that he, He was Muslim and all this stuff. And everybody blames Trump for it. But Phil Berg had about, I don't know, 10 years on Trump with that stuff. Hillary Clinton launched that when when Barack Obama ascended to Congress.

Remember, he started out as a state lawmaker in Illinois. And then he was able to leverage Jerry Ryan. Remember her, seven of nine? Her husband was running as the Republican against Barack Obama for that seat. And he leveraged her divorce as a way to knock out the husband and take the seat. So it was very, very methodical. And that when Phil Berg, when Hillary Clinton deployed that first attack, they ended up later, 10 years later blaming it on Trump.

It's wild. But they literally, KMovie had reported at the time that the campaign was asking Missouri law enforcement to target anybody who lies or runs a misleading ad that was verbatim reporting from KMOV, which is the CBS affiliate in St. Louis. Hmm. Now, we know that the Obama campaign, there were receipts, was absolutely involved in it. That was actually literally a censorship project that predated the ministry department, the truth, the truth department that, what's her face?

What's that woman's name? Nina Jankowitz, Ministry of Truth that they were doing. Predated that by a decade. So this is, Democrats, this is their MO. They've always done this. They've always done this. I don't know if you guys remember the last time I, well, one of the last times I was in Arizona, well actually in Tucson in southern part of Arizona, was for a rally for the Tucson Tea Party.

And I went with my dear friend and then boss at the time, Andrew Breitbart. And it was there to support the Tucson Tea Party who had been under attack in the wake of the Giffords shooting. And you remember the individual in the Giffords shooting. This was someone that the sheriff at the time, Sheriff Dupnick, DUPN-I-K, his office had been made aware of this particular killer. He was already on their radar because he had been banned from his community college for threatening behavior and posing a danger to other students. And he was not allowed to return to his community college without a doctor's note clearing him.

And the sheriff's office had been made available of it multiple times. This is what local media had reported. After Giffords was targeted by this guy, by the way, who had a satanic shrine in his backyard and was a very far left Dupnik then went on in his own voice and blamed the Tucson Tea Party. He pretty much almost called everybody out by name, said that it was the right that was responsible for this. And then he blamed Sarah Palin. This was some of the press conference at the time. This is, what is it?

Let's do 24 first. But it's exactly this kind of personal name calling. He didn't sound like he was really concerned about it. me when he was criticizing and saying things that absolutely were not true. He knows they're not true. You know, I have a reputation of 50 years and I don't think I have to defend myself on the kinds of issues that he was raising. It's my belief that the hard right is deliberately fueling the fire against public

officials. You know what? This is after he had gone on, when he had one of the original press conferences, the first press conference that they gave, Clarence Stupnik got up there and literally told tea partiers, he blamed tea partiers. And I don't even know if you can get that video anymore, the first press conference. I was having trouble finding it. But he had gone out there and he blamed the tea party.

And I don't know if you guys remember this. Trent and Jennifer Humphreys were the founders and they ran the Tucson Tea Party. at the time that Giffords was shot, they had actually just had a baby and they were at the, coming back from the store with like detergent and diapers and they came back

and all these news crews were on their front lawn because the shooting had already happened and Dupnik already had his press conference and he already blamed the Tea Party. So they had all of the news crews descend on the Humphreys Yard. That's what the left does.

And Deppnick is very far left. And then what ended up happening from all of the media incitement? Audio sum by 22. On a live. ABC Town Hall, a leftist, threatened Trent Humphreys, the founder of the Tucson Tea Party, all due to this leftist inciting rhetoric. Listen. Yes, 22. On display, too, was something no one ever expected at a town hall or one of the primary

points had to do with recognizing various sorts of warning signs. This man, Safeway shooting victim James Fuller, suddenly became a suspect when he threatened a Tea Party audience participant by taking his picture and shouting out, you're dead. Outside, Fuller was full of words for the Pima County Sheriff's deputies walking him away. I have an injured leg.

Could you slow down a little bit? You're not in any hurry, are you? In a strange twist, a man who was shot but survived last Saturday's massacre was taken into custody after making a threatening comment at a town hall of it in Tucson. 63-year-old James Eric Fuller

threatened Tea Party member Trent Humphreys by saying you are dead. Now we can't show you the video because every time we show you the video, the left reports me on YouTube and they try to get my account suspended because they claim copyright violation. So we have the video of this,

but because the left are such free speech warriors, I can't show it to you because they'll get my account suspended on YouTube. And that's a God honest fact. Happy to just shove the receipts of that down anyone's throat. Because we've gone through it repeatedly. You know, the free speech warrior left.

that blamed that tragedy on the right when it was actually a far left Satanist who did it. And those receipts abound. And when that came to light, and when it came to light that he was already on their radar and that he was already causing problems at his community college campus, boy, oh boy, they started talking about that guy. They stopped talking about him. That's the free speech warrior left. So all of these people out there that are talking about tone, we've been living with your

damn tone for over 15 years now. Now, all of these fake free speech warriors out there who are saying, oh, well, you know, we need to be able to have all these voices on. We've tried your way. We weren't the ones canceling people. They have tried to cancel people on the right since I got started in broadcasting. I have lost count of how many times they've tried to cancel my show. How many times they would try to get me kicked off of national TV. They were trying to boycott to get me kicked off of, uh, election coverage of previous networks, spare me. I don't give a crap what Ben Stiller says. I don't care what any of these people say. They are not free speech warriors. They used it to shut down the right. I have never once. I even defended Keith Oberman. When Keith Oberman got in trouble at MSNBC because they discovered that he had made political donations and they said that was against their rules because they were trying to maintain this optic of bipartisanship, which we all know that's stupid. I'm like, the stuff that he said on TV is way worse than a political donation. I expect

somebody's far left to give money to far-life candidates. He had to thank me on air. He was all bawling and sobbing on air. He had to thank me on air because I and others defended him by name. And now look at him. It's always a one-way street for these people. We have more on the way as we rolled towards the conclusion of this first hour.

Trump is a legend and absolutely here to support him He's wonderful he's not a politician and that's why he's he's doing so well in America. He's a businessman. And honestly, I wish he could do the same here that's happening in America because he's saving the people there. A lot of money. He loves his country. He's a very patriotic man. And I just wish he was here. So, yeah, we've come to support him.

Yeah. That was from yesterday. And when he was in UK, when he was meeting with Kier Starrmer and met with the royal family and had that speech. There was a lot of people in Britain that dig him. Trump sells freedom pretty well. I mean, I think even, I don't know if you saw, when they did that one of the last times he went there and the progressors were protesting him and they had that giant inflatable Trump, did you actually notice how many people were there? No, I mean, there was like tens of people.

I thought there was weird. Like the balloon took up more space than they did. and I don't think people noticed it because they were too busy looking because the bloom was funny. It was funny. But I think they were too busy looking at that. There were literally like tens, barely tens of people on the ground. I actually am not even sure that all of them were protesters because like there were benches. It was like a public park. So I'm not actually sure if they were all, you know, may have been like and dude. I don't know. But anyway. So coming up, all of the latest with the FCC, Kimmel, the fake war on speech. And so, so. much more. Stick with us. Second hour on the way. So apparently, we have to stop falling for the whole higher thread count thing because it doesn't necessarily mean better sheets. That's fake news, apparently. It's like believing that you use like 10% of your brain. So the secret isn't thread count. It's thread quality. And this is where Bowling Branch has won a lot of folks over yours truly. They use the best organic cotton. End of. I mean, these are sheets that feel incredible, like the moment you

take them out of the box. So the first night that you put them on, you You can tell right away that they're softer, they're cooler, and they have a great weight. It's like kind of having a five-star hotel room in your own house. And I'll tell you something else. The sheets get better every time that you've washed them. I've washed mine countless times, and they just keep getting softer. You can't do that with cheap sheets because they totally fall apart. Bowl and branch, they get more luxurious.

So you'll sleep better and you're kind of kind of feel like a spoiled brat, but it's okay. I'm not going to go back to the old sheets. Once you try them, you're not going to either.

So that's bowl and branch.com slash Dana Show for 15% off. Exclusions apply. Hi, Chris, good to see you. Oh, this is that. If you ever wondered how democracy dies, you're witnessing it. And I know it's people are watching a football game tonight and we're kind of sleepwalk through this thing. But this is, as you said, the most outrageous affronts on this. This is North Korea-style stuff.

And it's being done because this is a weak, thin-skinned man who's failing as a president. All of the things he promised are not happening. Okay. What does this have to do with Trump? Trump did not do this. All of these people are so, you know what it is? They're desperate for a distraction to their side shooting Charlie Kirk in the throat. That's what it is. They are desperate to find something that they can use to distract from that. They are so desperate. That is why they are making up this story that the administration is involved. It's just kind of bewildering. And some of the people on the right that are going along with us, like, whose side are you on?

Like spreading this fake news nonsense? Whose side are you on? Are you on the side of the ideology that wants to shut everyone down and shoot people in the throat? or are you on the side of the people that are like, this is private companies should be able to do what they were going to do. Isn't that what the left has always said forever? When Twitter, when they back channel coerced Twitter to ban Trump during an election period and then went out and told everyone that, oh, no, private companies can do what they want.

Now, these people don't like the rules that they've established. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash here with you. and we are at the top of this second hour. And so I, in the chats at Rumble, by the way, and you can also watch us do the radio show, Channel 347, Direct TV. It's, they don't, they don't care about this. I saw some people that got, I had video yesterday.

I mean, we had Brendan Carr on the program yesterday. And he, I asked him two different ways. Did you pressure the administration? And then the second time, the first time was a soft question to see how resistant he was going to be. There's always a, there's a, there's always a formula. And then the second question was direct. So did you, or the administration actually pressure any of these stations or the FCC or not, or through the FCC or through the admin, the stations or Disney or ABC? And he said, he was like, we did not do this.

And he said, he admitted that he joked about it. And he admitted that he sent memes about it. and that is not even remotely like what they're accusing them up. So I asked him this and there were some people who are like, why didn't you ask him that? Why didn't you watch? It just blows the mind. And that's, you know, I get aggravated about this because I don't want to be put in a position like I said last hour. We're defending the FCC.

I'm not a huge fan. I'm not. The original intent has far been a clear. by everything else that they do now. So this is the issue. It's a private company. And look, he was given an option to apologize. Now, I don't think that you should force him to donate to TPSA because I actually believe money is speech. So I actually think that would be as a company or anybody else. I don't think you should force anybody to donate. I don't think you should, I don't think he should have to be forced to donate to the Kirk family. But I think it's just

sensible to apologize to an audience, which I get the sense that Kimmel doesn't even know his own audience, because it was the people who were watching that called Sinclair. It was the people, and this is the Hollywood Reporter that did a story last night about this. The Hollywood reporter is a leftist drag. Okay, they are not conservative. They hate conservatives. They hate me. They hate everybody who's not a Democrat. And they even had to admit that there were people, calling Sinclair stations, Neckstar station. There were people calling these stations which account for like millions

upon millions of households. And they were complaining. That was his own audience that found that he had gone too far. And he wasn't making a joke. He made jokes later on in his monologue. But in the beginning, what he was doing was he lied. He went out

and said, oh yeah, it's a MAGA guy. And apparently he was going to go down and he was going to go out and double down the next day, which is why they said, no. we're pulling you off air. So I feel like a lot of people need to correct their narratives because you've been lied to. You have been lied to.

And there were people on the right that were not anybody of note, but they were saying, oh, well, I guess, you know, this is no, you know, is the right losing free speech? How is it a free speech issue? So am I to understand that the people making that argument are now suddenly adopting the Marxist ideology that private businesses don't have the option to exercise their employment contracts the way that they see fit? Because what they're doing ironically is arguing for government intervention.

That's the most hysterical part about this. They're too damn dumb to see it. They're literally arguing for government intervention in this situation. How incredibly ironic. So it's not a free speech issue. He was told to apologize. He refused. They had apparently told him prior to de-escalate and he refused.

Kane, if Radio America said maybe you should not you know, push the, maybe you should watch your tone when you're out there saying false things. If I was out here saying false things and I was starting to get in trouble for it and Radio America said to stop it and I didn't do it. How am I upholding the terms of my employment agreement? You're not. And in this instance, it's the free market that decided one way or the other. Essentially, the company was hearing from their own viewers. So yeah, this is a free market thing. Yes, but C-Cain, the left wants to use this to distract. from Charlie Kirk, and you have some thirsty nobody's on the right who are desperate to try to look

like contrarian fake libertarians and leapfrog over, you know, effort and time spent perfecting their craft. And they just want to immediately get clicks. That's so, right. So true. Yeah. So yeah, I'm a little, I get aggravated because I don't like defending government agencies at all. And so I'm a little, little miffed that I even have to. Because this is not a case of it. I mean, I would know, a lot of people would know. I've been golly, I've been suspended on X. I've been had my account frozen on YouTube. They've deleted

my videos on YouTube. They've deleted stuff on Facebook. They've frozen my Facebook. I've had the same thing happened on Instagram. I haven't had anything deleted on Instagram, but I have had warnings on Instagram. Like, for instance, when I shared a story, it was literally a screenshot of

a story. And I think it was, I think it may have been the New York Post or Daily Mail, I can't remember. And it was a study, it was one of the first studies that came out. In fact, we had talked to Dr. Robert Malone about it at the time. It was one of the first studies that came out that showed that the efficacy of the injections is not what you were being told it was. In fact, it wasn't, there was no, nothing that prevented transmission. And they hid that and they said that I was being given a warning for that, because apparently the left was

reporting me for it. And then it came out that the administration was pressuring these tech companies to do this stuff. Now, that's just one instance. I'm not even getting into, you know, the whole laptop thing. These are the same people, by the way, who also were demanding that anyone who questioned the integrity of the 2020 election, that they be fired, that they be canceled, that they be debanked, that they be de-platformed because they said that it was a lie that was, quote, unquote, too dangerous for people to spread, right? And so they were told, oh my gosh, you're saying stuff that's dangerous, you're going to have to be punished for this. These are the same people who did that, right? These were the same people who were trying, because whether or not you

want to wear a mask, that's free expression, et cetera, because it had no scientific basis. They were trying to get people fired if they didn't wear a mask. So spare me. Spare me. These are the rules that they established. Actually, this is really the way it should be. The free market working and private businesses responding. There's no questioning of it. That's not. That's a questioning of it. That That's just it. You either believe that businesses have the right to do this or you don't. It's very, very simple. And so I'm just done with this. Now, there's certain things that the government that I will absolutely criticize. Like the whole, for instance, they're mulling over and it's not gone away yet. In fact, it's only strengthened. A, like an across-the-board ban for transgender individuals being able to own firearms. I don't. believe that you can adjudicate an eligible entire groups of people. That's not

how this works. It's always a individual case-by-case basis. It's part of due process. So I get a little nervous about this when they start doing things like that. So that's an example of, you know, yeah, that's where the agencies would be wrong to enforce things like this.

But all the people who spread this fake news that Brendan Carr and the admin were shaking down executives. They really need to correct their narratives because they're doing exactly what I'm going to say something too they're doing exactly what the left is doing I've seen this twice now I've seen it like when I had Josh Hammer on the other day and we were talking about some of this controversy out there as it related to Kirk and Israel and you know I think it's weird again for people to hijack someone's

mic posthumously and try to like redefine what he said he said what he's he had his own beliefs and By the way, even if, let's just play devil's advocate for a moment and lean into that argument, let's just say that even if he was criticizing governmental processes and policies of Israel, that doesn't mean Ms. Sodmode him down. Oh, my gosh. Everybody needs to take a beat. But what gets me is everyone, I mean, and I was merely having this discussion and people were like, I guess you're getting paid by APEC.

I've never been paid by APEC in my life, but you are a leftist because you're doing the exact same thing that the left does. anyone who disagrees with me as a Nazi, you're doing the everyone who disagrees with me is funded by Israel or APEC. That kind of language and argument got a guy killed. Way to celebrate the death, the murder of our friend by doing the exact same thing that the left did to incite his murder. Look at yourself in the mirror. You own it. And I see the same thing happening with this argument, too. That it's the same, it's, well, you want to. You. Why are you in line with the FCC? Why are you?

I'm not, actually. I have a whole body of work where I'm not. I don't understand why you're using leftist arguments and thinking that you're going to get a conservative outcome from that. It doesn't make any sense to me. We have this whole issue of stuff. It's wild. And I think a lot of people owe a lot of apologies and they need to correct a lot of their narratives, as they said. Now, the other thing to get into Congress, let me pull this up. Yesterday is the vote.

Yesterday evening, anyway. They were expected. Actually, no, it was like the first thing. I think it was actually first thing this morning, wasn't it? 58 House Democrats, including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, they voted against a resolution, which ended up passing anyway. But it was pretty much party-line vote to honor the life of Charlie Kirk. It was just a simple resolution. you weren't endorsing his beliefs. The language did not require you to endorse his beliefs. It did not require you to endorse his policy positions. It did not require you to endorse his politics. It did not require you to endorse anything.

This wasn't like a trans move where you have to affirm everything. They just said it's basically it was, you know, it's a bummer that this guy was assassinated. You know, he's a great family man, et cetera. They couldn't even do that. They could not even do that. I have no words. I mean, at the very least that you could do, considering what your ideology has done. I mean, I'm not quite sure what more proof people need that Democrats endorse those.

I mean, for crying out loud, you know, even if you had like one of the most ridiculous members of the left, have something similar happened to them, you would not have anybody on the right that wouldn't do that out of just simple decency. But again, we are talking about the left. The folks who help bring you the program and make it possible so you don't pay a subscription fee. Now you guys know I always carry. I have zero problem throwing lead down range in defense of myself and or loved ones. And I also am completely aware of the municipal and private property restrictions that affect your ability to carry where you would like when you would like at certain or any time. And that's where I think it's good to diversify your weapons array, especially if you're a college kid who's old enough to go and serve their country overseas and carry full auto, but apparently you're not trusted enough to even carry to protect your. yourself here at home under the age of 21. So this is where the burn a gun comes in. Burn a gun shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away. The SD is their most popular model. The smaller, CL, new, the newest one I think is going to

overtake the SD in terms of popularity. Easy target acquisition, no recoil, unlike regular stun guns, it only have a couple of shots. This one, I said yesterday I had seven, sorry, it was a 15 round capacity per cartridge. So you have 15 rounds compared to like your regular stun guns, which is like one, maybe two. It also is super lightweight. There's no recoil. And here's the thing. There's no background check.

There are no fees. There's no, none of that. There's no, they don't care about gun-free zone signs at all whatsoever. The legal in every state, you can get it sent right to your front door. It's burner.com slash Dana, B.RNA. You have different calibers. You carry blades. It's always good to have a diversified weapons array.

Check out the new Berna-CL stands for a compact launcher. Burna.com slash Dana. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick 5. All right. So first up here, we've got, oh, vacation rabies horror. Sounds like a bad, like horror film off Huluene. It's called From the Sun.

Monkey Shock. Horror as Monkey Bites. Girl on the neck, leaving her bleed, needing rabies injections. After attack and a holiday hotspot, she's 12 years old. So she was in. Bali and it was a split second encounter with a monkey and the monkey bit her neck and there's literally a photo of it biting her neck. Why would you sit down there and allow yourself to have these animals crawl all over you? No, you're not snow white.

They're going to bite you, girl. You are not snow white. I don't understand. Look, I love animals. There are no way on God's green earth. I'm going to sit and allow these like these particular type of monkeys specifically to climb all over me. That's what happened. So she had to go and get, you know, those shots are not the best thing, apparently.

they hurt really badly. And you have to get a bunch of them, I think, too, don't you? Ooh. Samsung is bringing ads to U.S. fridges because that's the dumbest thing ever. So why not? This is why, who cares if your fridge can tweet? Right? Why can't you just, like, why can't they just make, like, I don't know.

Like, why, I don't understand. So they, I guess they're going to bring it in, like, those little LED panels. And they're going to have it on there. The piece won't open. so I'm going to move on. No, here. It's a software update to their hub refrigerator, so they have those screens on it,

and they're going to have ads on the screens. So, okay, does that mean that your fridge is paid for and you can just get a free fridge? Yeah. Who wants, that's stop getting screens on everything. Chimney Christmas. A bus-sized uncrewed airship is being tested by NATO as a maritime surveillance platform.

Isn't that the ship that Sam Jackson ran in The Avengers? Pretty sure it is. NASA says we're injuring the next great chapter of exploration. They found 6,000 exoplanets. Dude, I'm telling you aliens, man. Hallmark has announced its countdown to Christmas lineup, guys. What? Ladies get excited.

By the way, Hamas welcomed your decision. They said it's a great move forward. By pure cynicism, but I don't want to let them the monopoly. of such a request because this is not true.

What they want is to destroy you. But if we consider that the Palestinian state would always have the objective to destroy Israel, how do you want to build a sustainable future? Well, that's the dumbest question I've ever heard that was already answered before it ever left his mouth. That's Emmanuel Macron who is saying, well, yes, as long as we give Hamas, this Palestinian state,

which, by the way, who's going to run that? The Palestinian Authority, the one that is actually had to suspend elections in 2021, because Hamas is going to take over not just the strip, but also West Bank. so spare me those protestations. Joining us to discuss this, our friend Matt Mowers, who is the founding board member of the EU-US Forum and former Trump admin State Department official.

He joins us now via video. Matt, good to see you. I just thought that was a silly remark from Macron, and I don't know why they keep clinging to this idea. I know this is a sticking point in any kind of negotiations with the United States. I know Trump has said, well, if this is something they're going to entertain, then maybe perhaps we're going to re-examine some of our trade. associations and agreements. I mean, I get it. Why, why do they do this? Why do they, why fall on the sword like this? Well, it's, you, you have to look at the fact that Emmanuel Macron right now has a

28% approval rating. He's got, he's now on his fourth prime minister. His last one only lasts about nine months. And so he is doing everything he can to try to placate, you know, the far left and some of the domestic politics, will also then try to throw a bone to the right with the new prime minister pick. So he's playing pure politics right now. I mean, you know, if you go to France and even the UK and many of these places, you have a radically anti-Semitic strain of politics going on right now. And you're seeing that play out in some of the reaction of members of parliament towards Israel. And then you're, of course, seeing it now with what Emmanuel Macron's doing right now, as well as as others, where they're trying now recognize at probably the exact worst time, the idea of a

standalone Palestinian state. Yeah, the worst time. completely. And I don't know, they're having problems in France right now, I can tell. But I also know, you and I talked about this before, the rightward lean is still ascending. So that's good to see. I wanted to ask you about your thoughts of the red carpet rollout that Trump received in the U.K. I was, I mean, I don't know. We've ever had a leader that got like their jets to fly along the U.K.'s jets and that had this, you know, I think there was like the second time he had a state banquet held for him when a U.S. President was visiting. What did that tell you about the relationship between Trump and Kier Stramer? Because I know he's not a fan, obviously, of Stramer's politics,

but it looked like it was very friendly. Apparently, AIDS said that they got along really well. What does that indicate to you? Well, I think it shows a few things. One, the UK is probably thinking their lucky stars that they got half the European Union a few years ago after Brexit. and allowed them to actually have this type of truly special relationship with the United States under President Trump. I mean, there's no way that the U.K. would be in the place they are today, had they not been able to unilaterally ending negotiations with the United States agreed to the template for a new trade deal the way they did. They were actually the very first one to come out with a big announcement in the Oval Office several months ago. And then it's kind of continued to build.

And what you saw in this visit was really the culmination. of that. You saw the fact that they announced this big MOU memorandum of understanding between the UK and the U.S. on a whole host of issues, everything from AI development to nuclear capacity and research to quantum computing. I mean, there's been a lot of different aspects there. And I think it's actually a more momentous. It's a bigger issue than even what we saw with the president's visit to the Middle East just a few months ago. Because what you're seeing, here are truly two of the world superpowers, working together in cooperation and recognizing the fact that when we talk about a special relationship between the United States and the United

Kingdom, it's got to be more than just lip service. It's got to be more than just some sort baloney diplomatic talking point. It's got to mean something. And I think you saw that on display. And, you know, these events are often a highlight of cultural diplomacy, right? It's both sides really showing a level of respect. President Trump is in many ways a producer at heart. And so he recognizes and values the importance of that. It's among the reasons you've seen him take such great efforts at the White House to really think about how the Oval Office looks, what improvements it needs. He knows it's a representation of what the United States is on the world stage that the Brits were doing just the same thing the last few days and they pulled it off really well.

I think the talking with Matt Mowers from the EU-US Forum, I think it's very stunning that you have, you know, you had the Middle East visit, then you have this UK visit and this all corresponded, you know, within the same, I would say, eight-week period that he had European leaders to Washington, D.C., and I'll never get over the photo of them all sitting outside waiting to go into the Oval Office, like it was kids waiting to go into the principal's office. And Ursula von der Leyen was told to leave because they only wanted these democratically elected leaders of these EU nations. Was that as much of addressing down as we all saw it? Because I know that sometimes what we see might be really different from the reality that's of that moment there. But I don't think I got to ask you,

was that an actual dressing down of the EU that Trump did very subtly there? Yeah, it shows that they're not a national entity. They don't have a military. They don't have truly responsibility in any of the collective defense, and especially what they're talking about that day, which is how are we going to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict? You need to have the leaders of those countries with skin in the game. I mean, the European Union can't bring any sort of military resources or anything to bear. There's really no reason to be there, right? All they could do is actually add words that could potentially exacerbate the situation, which is the opposite approach of what President Trump wants. And so, you know, I think you're reading it pretty right

spot on. You know, the fact that they included her at all, I think actually was a bit of an olive branch. But also because I don't think there was ultimately all that much she could contribute to that conversation. Yeah, there's not a lot, as you said. I mean, she doesn't have a standing military. She wasn't even elected. I mean, they just kind of all like shook hands under the table and, okay, we pick you. That's kind of how she got her job. Yeah, and look, you know, you look at, I know, we talked about this quite a bit last year around the EU elections in June. You had a ascendancy of conservative parties. You had a complete collapse of left-wing parties. And yet, they decide to elect the same exact leadership they had before that, including Von Laiden.

I mean, it was an inside political game that shows her, not the direct will of the people. And that's what's frustrating a lot of folks. They have not been responding to the conservative voters. I mean, you look at what we just talked about in France right now. You know, Marine Le Pen's party was growing and doing exorbitantly well until Macron made a deal with the far left in the runoff elections to try to shut her out of political power. You then saw what they did with these first ever tried and trumped up charges against her and then forbidding her to actually run for president again because they knew that she and her political party were ascendant, trying to stifle political opposition.

You're seeing that same thing happened writ large across the European Union. That's what happened when Von Leiden was reselected despite the fact that you saw this conservative backlash against many of the policies. And now we're seeing them continue to steamroll those policies. I mean, Brussels right now is considering what's called CS-T triple D, which is the corporate sustainability due diligence directive. essentially says that all companies that operate in Europe have to now comply with European Union climate and environmental rules. That means you can be an American company based in Houston, Texas.

And if you want to do anything in the European Union, you now need to comply fully across the board with all of their radical environmental policies, which are, by the way, even further to the left than where the Green New Deal is. So that's what the European Union's up to these days, and that's what they're continuing to steamroll towards. It's a further and further march to the left. And it's not reacting to the will of the voters. You're seeing conservatives ascendant in Poland, in France, in Portugal, in Italy, a number of different places. And yet you see Brussels doing the exact same thing they've always been doing.

So they're so completely toned off. Well, my last question for you is, with all of that, is there, I know it would be a very long road for the relevancy of the European Union to diminish to the point where these nations can be sovereign once again. But I feel like we're on that pathway. And then I see headlines. In fact, I think you all tweeted this out. Exxon seeks U.S. political help and call to quash EU climate law because their law isn't just a, it's not a climate. I mean, we all know what it really is about. The regulatory regime that's now affecting our companies, American companies. So I tend to think that, you know, even though they're very far left, they still respond to to capital. And they still respond to wanting to have a good record of at least being able to invite

this sort of business and have these sort of economic relationships. So is this kind of a sign to you that their influence is waning with all of these member nations and that, you know, I mean, it seems like it could be expedited if more and more companies call this out the way that Exxon's doing. Oh yeah. And look, you see individual sovereign leaders stand up to Brussels. And I mean, whether it's Prime Minister Orban in Hungary, whether it's President Iraqi in Poland, whether it's Maloney in Italy, who while being a little bit more cooperative, is still really standing up for the rights of Italians and trying to assert their viewpoints and their conservative viewpoints on a number of these issues.

And so what it's coming down to, though, is that the EU is going to have to respond to the needs of the sovereign leaders. And if they don't, that's when they're going to really truly lose their political power. that means what they have to do in these trade negotiations with the United States. You know, the U.S. can make this another point in the ongoing trade negotiations. Just because they announced the outset of a deal and the framework of a deal with the European Union, you can go back and say these types of policies cannot impact American companies. Because if they did, this is about political power and political control.

By the way, let's think about this. There's a reason why so few global companies are starting in the European Union. Union. There's a reason why you don't see the same manufacturing capacity in the European Union. And now because of these policies they're trying to push like CS-T-D, they're essentially going to try hamstring every other company that tries to do work in the European Union as well. We cannot allow the European Union to hamstring U.S. businesses to prevent them from growing and from expanding and being competitive on the global market the way we need them to, the way we want them to, because it's important to our livelihood as well. They can't be subject to a bunch of, you

rulings coming out of Brussels in the bureaucratic state there. Yeah, that's a great point. Matt Mowers with the EU-US Forum. You can find them at EU-US forum on X as well, EU-HifferenceFORM.com.

It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man. A Florida man almost hit police officers doing a burnout to impress the ladies.

Man, save some grills for the rest of them, won't you? The late night crowd in downtown Bradenton got smoked when police said a driver turned, Main Street into his own burnout pit. It was about two in the morning. Their crime reduction team heard a truck, hammer at its throttle, saw a silver pickup fly down the street. The driver identified as 28-year-old Juan Leone. Swerved past pedestrians and officers standing nearby.

After running a stop sign, he corrected just before he reached the next avenue where a red light forced him to stop. But instead of cooling off, he spun the tires in the crosswalk, filling the intersection with smoke, then lurched forward. forcing officers to step back. When he was detained, he got, oh boy, DUI also. And he was booked on three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon because he also performed field sobriety test, declined a breathalyzer.

He told them that he was trying to impress girls. The officers were not impressed with his answer, you can imagine. Also, this, what a headline. Okay, let's ex-cate. Cape Coralman accused of causing. mother, significant number of stab wounds. So these siblings got their brother arrested because he stabbed their mother. So what does that mean you're accused of causing significant? That's like, I caused you to get punched in the face by my fist. You know what I mean? Like,

what in the world is that? That is, that's like newspeak. The guy was arrested, but what stands out and what I can't get past is this insane headline. What is it? It's. It's a, it's. It's a It's from news press, which is like an actual news site. They cover Florida, but, too, many Christmas. That's pretty heavy lifting there with that whole sentence. A Florida man believes that he was infected with flesh-eating bacteria while cutting grass. What? This is in Jacksonville.

He was hospitalized. He was in there for weeks. He battled flesh-eating bacteria. He said that he was cutting weeds and grass in a ditch that rungs alongside of his house. And he said that he thinks that that's what. happened because it hit his legs the most. And he said that, I mean, they thought they were going to have to, I mean, this is how bad it was. They thought they were going to have to amputate this guy's leg. They don't have to, but they said that they're trying to, they're still looking at, I mean,

yeah, the one guy who got, we had the guy who got killed by a bear yesterday for mowing his grass. I've never heard of a guy getting the flesh eating bacteria thing from mowing grass, though. But I guess that makes sense if you're like near a ditch and there's water. I don't know. man that's like really this guy runs an irrigation company he said he's trying to he's recovering but yeah that's awful his injuries look bad that's a weird

one definitely a weird one let's see in Florida let's see what do we got another Florida woman she attacked her mother and brother during an argument over the PlayStation PlayStation 4

yeah Marion County now this was like a year ago but it occurred in April 24, but they're in trial now. She was found guilty just this week of choking her mother and then hitting her brother during an argument over a video game console, so it was over the PlayStation. That's insane. She apparently grabbed her brother's groin to the point of pain because I guess they were

fighting over the plane. She's actually a grown person. Can I just say, like these are all grown people. Like this woman's literally, she's in her late 20s. And, or sorry, she looks like she's in her late 20s. She's 21 years old. But she choked her mother. She battered the brother and police had to come.

And they said that it was over a PlayStation 4 console. And they were fighting over it, et cetera, et cetera. So that's ended. That's, that's what happened. That's, wow. I can't imagine being so ridiculous that that's your, hmm, mm, pretty wild. I also have this. This guy.

I think we've had this before. Did we ever, did we talk about the guy who's dressed as Chucky Cheese and arrested? Oh, wait, yeah, we did. Okay. We did, yeah. I have a lot of Florida people that still send me,

sometimes people will send me stuff that I've already talked about. But for whatever reason, I got this like three, this like sent like three or four times over the past couple of days. I'm like, I'm pretty sure we covered the Chuckie Cheese arrest. Like literally the guy in the costume, third hour on the way, stay with us as we move. Our partners that help bring you the program.

And I think it's important that in the wake of this national tragedy that we take time. Simply to grieve the loss of life that occurred here. But I also believe we need to resist the temptation to put America on trial. I mean, absent any additional evidence, one man was responsible for the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

That man is now in custody and now comes justice. Really? And while with this rising tide of political violence that we've seen on both sides of the aisle, I understand the deep concern. I don't think we ever want to lose sight of the fact of personal responsibility. So this is both sidesism. Mike Pence is very much out of the old cut of Republicans that, excuse me, did not, they just never, they never wanted to push back.

They wanted to allow whatever narrative that was being said to stay. And that's one of the reasons why we got into this progressive cesspit. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. top of this third hour. What does he mean barring any evidence? Let me explain something to Mr. Pence and others about the relationship of long-established leftist behavior, beliefs, and rhetoric. You can say it was one guy. Who did the one guy listen to? He was born in a very conservative family. Apparently, his dad, mom, they're Republicans. And then he changed. Why? Why was he believing these conspiracy theories. Where did the conspiracy theories come from? Now, no one's arguing

that he didn't do it. But this idea that he acted completely mentally alone, I disagree with that because there is a huge body of evidence that goes back 20, 30, 40 years showcasing repeated leftist violence. By the way, the survey that they were trying to promote as show. showing conservative violence being greater, which when you took out all of their bad methodology, it wasn't. They were actually trying to use prison fights. I have no idea how you even incorporate that, but that's what they were doing. There are a number of people who have shredded that survey, so I'm not going to tread on that worn ground, but it was pretty insightful. There's an ideology in America that thinks, if you don't give them exactly what they want

when they want it, that it's oppression. And they think if you disagree with them on an issue, then you're a Nazi, that you are guilty of a moral, ethical, human, spiritual, everything failing to the extent that you are compared to a Nazi, simply for having a difference of opinion. If that's what you believe and you believe that someone is so evil, some people will be prevailed upon to maybe perhaps act. Now, whether or not, they choose to act is one thing. But the left, that's on them. But the left has told us for years that we, the right, are responsible for every bad thing that happens in the world. And I'm tired of, of, you know, these are their rules. These are their rules. And the only reason, the only way

that they're not going to want to live under these rules again is if they are fairly applied to them. Well, both sides. This isn't a both sides thing. Trump has never gone out and called somebody a Nazi. a fascist. Now, Antifa, yeah, they are actually fascist because they believe in violence for silence. So I get that. But there's no comparison here. That's what we're telling you. There isn't a comparison.

So shame on him for this. I feel like some of these guys think that after 28, they want to put themselves in positions to once again run the rudders for the right. And I don't want these people doing that. I don't want them at all to do that. This is something that has to get situated. And you're not going to do it by saying, well, it's both sides of them because it's not. You know, the people, how they reacted to Charlie Kirk being murdered was they went out into the streets and prayed.

They had candlelight vigils. They prayed openly for his family by the thousands. They waved American flags. Now look at George Floyd. Cities burned for two summers straight. People were killed. A church was set on fire. There is no what aboutism here.

There is no comparison. And this is one of the reasons why he fell out of favor with the movement. You know, they had, Kirk was supposed to speak at CSU in Fort Collins last night, audio sum by 12. And obviously he couldn't show up. But they had 10,000 people that showed up anyway. Look how peaceful this is. is. Audio Sambay 12. Look how peaceful it is. Oh, just so.

Look at them. Peaceful people. Thank you all for your support. Nobody was writing. I didn't see any riots, can, did you? No. It actually was a truly peaceful gathering. Not a mostly peaceful protest. I don't know. The idea for this, I wanted to play,

getting into some of this stuff. This was Audio Sambate 16. Leftists have gathered in New York City. This is near Rockefeller outside of A.B. Studios. They're protesting the cancellation. Watch this. ABC.

Grow a spy. ABC. Grow us fine. ABC. There's a fascist. There's a fascist. Gosh, this is the war in this protest. I'm so bored.

Gosh, they're so boring. Look how bored he is. I'm bored looking at how bored he is. That's a contrast. That's just, yeah. that's grow a spine what do you mean grow a spine notice how they're not saying really anything about Sinclair or Neckstar because they don't understand

how licensing and regulation works that's what's so stupid about this they just they don't understand it comes down to these local stations and they can do whatever the hell they want if they decide that this is not in public interest etc but apparently again Hollywood reporter variety others were reporting that they were basically their phone lines were burning down over people who were livid over what Kimmel's and those stations felt that they had a duty to act and so that's what they did.

And how was that Trump's fault? Again, they've come over and over and they've said no. I mean, you've had ABC said, no, they weren't involved in this. Sinclair said no, they weren't involved in this. And Sinclair was like, yeah, we want to do more. I mean, they were doubling down on it. They also said that it was a temporary thing. That's that it was temporary.

All he has to do is apologize. There's certain things that he has to do. There are certain things that they wanted him to do. He doesn't want to apologize. He doesn't want to do any of that. So, you know, blank their concerns for unity on that. Because that's true. Audio Sunday, 14.

The Paramount, ex-Paramount chief, says the Colbert cancellation, because there were a lot of things saying that it had to do with approval for a mega-merger. He was saying no. Colbert just didn't. By the way, did you know only 129,000 people were watching a Jimmy Kimmel show? I get more views than that on like an Instagram video. Those are August numbers. Go ahead and play this. This is 14. This is about Colbert.

Outside of the settlement, there are other actions taken to ensure there would be regulatory approval. I think about rollbacks of DEI policies. I think about some things like the cancellation of Steve Colbert's show that was never explicitly stated as being part of getting regulatory approval, but it's something that I think a lot of people assumed. Do you think that they made the right choices to ensure that they got the regulatory approval? I'm not going to tie any of that to regulatory approval. I can tell you that we had been looking at late night. It was financially not viable.

It had been that way for a long time. We had made a decision months prior to the announcement that we were not going forward with that. Well, look at that. But First Amendment, though. Yeah, but I heard that that was the First Amendment issue. I was told, but they're saying no, that it had nothing to do with trying to get his approval for a mega merger. It had nothing to do at all whatsoever with that. I just, again, I feel like people need to stop helping the left.

Really? I don't know. They need to stop helping the left with us. Remember, they were going after, here's a Chuck Schumer. I just saw Chuck Schumer tweet from March 1st of 2023, where he was trying to pressure Rupert Murdoch to fire Tucker Carlson. I'm looking at this letter right now. He and Representative Hakeem Jeffrey sent it, and they were demanding that Tucker be fired. That's a clear case of the government actually pressuring a network to fire someone. You know, First Amendment, First Amendment, First Amendment stuff.

I mean, that's actually a clear-cut case of the government contacting someone and pressuring them. I don't, I didn't see Ben Stiller bring this up, and I didn't see a number number of. of people on the left bring this up as an example of that. It's, I don't know. It's just, it's, it's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. The, the hypocrisy of it is ridiculous. I think the people that were standing outside of ABC saying grow a spine, grow a spine.

What they're saying to ABC is be okay with losing money and making sure that your stockholders don't get the return on their investment that they're expecting. that's exactly what they're saying that's exactly it now then you have to ask yourself okay this is this the left another example of the left not respecting the sovereignty of private entities so what side do you stand on you either believe that private entities have the right to exercise their employment agreements and run their businesses the way they see fit or you don't and for the people that are demanding that it was the administration that tried to pressure them and they want the administration to fix it,

you are now ironically arguing for government intervention. They're not the brightest bulbs out there. They really aren't. They're just not. Bless their hearts. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. I don't believe in owl attacks.

I think that these people are the baddies. So they're saying that in Seattle, Parks and Rec is warning of owl attacks in their Lincoln Park. They're dive bombing people. probably hippies I don't know if I don't really know if I feel bad yet they're just like if you hear I love this line listen

if you hear hooting cover your head and move calmly I just want to run behind people and go who those damn top knots they think it's a rodent they probably do and they're probably trying to pick the top knots off of the hippies heads in Seattle

that's actually really good observation Kane I I just think it's hysterical Yeah, this is literally what they tell people. If you hear hooting, cover your head and move calmly. Carry an umbrella for protection and wave your arms to leave the area right away. I love everything right now, briefly. I'll go back to hating in a moment.

Skinny jeans are showing signs of a comeback. It's just fat. Wear whatever you want to wear. I do think that not everyone can wear every single type of gene. I can't do high-waisted well. It's not anything. I don't do that. well. I don't do high waisted well. And I don't have a problem with skinny jeans unless you just don't

look good in them. I mean, different cuts flat are different people. And they're, I think people are wearing jeans less. I don't know. I just wear all black everything. I don't wear jeans as much as they used to because everything, you know, unless they're black. I don't know. That's like, wasn't that a millennial thing that they hated skinny jeans? Millennials. Oh, sorry. Let's see. Why is this a challenge. A teen nearly dies after the Benadryl social media challenge. So it's a Tick, Cali. So they were eating Tidepods. Like, that's what I believe now. They were actually eating Tid Pods. So they said that there is this TikTok challenge that's involving Benadryl. And they don't actually tell you what it is. They just say it's a TikTok challenge that

involves Benadryl. So what do you do? Like, drink it? I guess. Yeah, they just said, like, people were using Benadryl. I thought it was a safe medication. Well, nothing's safe if you abuse it. You know, good grief. And get your kid off TikTok. Geez. Just, just, I don't know.

Let's see. Milwaukee, two adults arrested six kids found locked in a storage unit. This was, that's a trafficking issue. Absolutely. This is Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They ranged from two months to nine years. They were locked inside, two months, locked inside of a storage unit on their north side.

found them early Tuesday morning of this week and arrested two adults. Two months and ages two, three, five, seven, and nine. A 26-year-old woman and a 33-year-old man were taken into custody. She said that she had one of the neighbors who did not want to appear on camera told the ABC affiliate there that she had seen what appeared to be a family with children walking in and around storage units since summer and they would leave every morning and return every night. Why did you never say anything? You free. freak? Like, why? So, I don't know. And then they've been there just the entire time. And a dad punished kids with an electric cattle prod, according to Ohio officials. He's pled guilty.

He's 35 years old in Erie County. Apparently, record show they didn't name him because they're protecting the kids. But he pled guilty to two counts of domestic violence. He used an electric cattle prod on three kids as punishment. And I Wow. Yeah, so he's in trouble. That seems a little overkill, maybe, a little overkill. We have more on the way. Stick with us.

So I want to make it clear, there's going to be a Democratic majority in just over a year. And to the FCC chairperson and anyone involved in these dirty deals, get a lawyer and save your records because you're going to be in this room

and you're going to be answering questions about the deals that you struck and who benefited and what the cost was to the American people because that happened. With his dumb hat. Welcome back to the show. He's wearing a Kimmel hat. Uh, that's Eric Fartswell, um, Swalwell. The typo stays verbal.

Uh, he was, uh, speaking there in Congress. Welcome back. Bottom of this third hour, Dana Lash, with you. Can I just give you, if you all want a clear case of a government official trying to coerce, like an actual private company, again, can I just go back to this letter that, uh, Chuck Schumer, this is March 1st, 2023 at 922 a.m. Quote, to Rupert Murdoch, direct Tucker Carlson, another host on your network. work to stop spreading false election. It was in admit on air that they were wrong to engage in such negligent behavior. And he wrote like this two-page thing. He and Hakeem Jeffries. There are other examples, but that's a very blatant example of someone trying to get somebody canned. So yeah, that's, but they're accusing Brendan Carr of doing it after

Next Star and Sinclair made the decision. Maybe if Jimmy Kimmel were just if he was just funny and he just didn't you know that would be one thing. You know what Johnny Carson said he said quote when a comic becomes enamored with his own views and voice them

off on the public in a polemic way he loses not only his sense of humor but his value as a humorist and that's true the only time that both sides is acceptable is in comedy that's it. You have Conan O'Brien even weighing in on

this. So he's upset with private companies, apparently. I'm just not allowing this narrative to stand. I'm so done with these BS narratives. I am so done with it because we see where they lead. We see where they lead. And it's unfortunate because they have a record of this. I wanted to share this two different stories. George Soros, this is from Politico, is cutting a $10 million check for California's redistricting campaign. $10 million. That's actually kind of a drop in the bucket for him. I mean, and he's given more to other causes.

He's given $10 million to boost the redistricting campaign as Democrats are trying to raise huge sums to fight to make it happen in California. Honestly, they need to lose seats, but the seats that they have are already Democrat, except for like one or two. so I don't, you know, and this is first reported by the New York Times. It's the single largest donation.

They call it Prop 50. That's the legislative effort. What they're trying to do, it's Prop 50. It is the single largest donation to Prop 50 right now to date. And they have some other labor unions, a Democrat PAC, and some other wealthy progressives. I was looking at the numbers here. about 30, a little, well over 30 million that they have donated so far to the gerrymandering cause in California. Now, you might remember Soros poured millions into California to protect Newsome in 21 when

they did the recall of him. He really boosted up, he boosted up his don't, his donations, I should say, and really worked hard to protect Newsom from the recall effect. Now, this and then this story, this is from a couple of sources. New York Post. It's also New York Times. So Jeff Zense was the White House Chief of Staff. I don't think a lot of people knew his name. One of the things that we talked about when we were on this MRC thing is we had a very big

discussion about how many people know. You guys know Susie Wiles' name, but you don't know Jeff Sence's name. Jeff Sence was the chief of staff for Biden. How many people were familiar with all the stuff he did? Which is like if he wanted to know who really controlled the auto pen, it was him. He revealed to Congress yesterday that Biden, listen to this, that Biden's memory and decision making capability were deteriorating while in office. This was the interview that he gave to Congress. It's been transcribed. You know how they do it. They do a closed door first. This is always the standard operating procedure. They do closed door first, then they do to the public, open to the public hearings. Sents wouldn't answer a reporter questions as he was leaving, but he told the

White House, he told the House Oversight Committee yesterday that he personally had asked White House physician Kevin O'Connor to conduct a, quote, full medical workup that included a cognitive exam. And this was after the debate performance. And one of the things that Zenz said is that, you know, he knew that Biden was, had a cold, was fighting a cold. And he thought that that had something to do with his disastrous debate performance. But then he apparently told staff and the doctor, Kevin O'Connor, that he had seen Biden with a cold before and that this was unlike anything that he had previously seen. And if you remember, that debate was probably one of the most disastrous, I think that is the most disastrous debate I've ever seen anybody

given my life, that performance. And the campaign in the White House, they were all just dismissing that at the time. But in, and they were, remember, the excuse was, oh, he's a cold. You know, colds make you forget where you are and stumble over your words and not be able to walk, apparently. Even though, like, right after the debate, he went to a Waffle House. Did you know that? No. Yeah, right after the debate, Biden was spotted in a Waffle House, you know, because he had a cold and didn't feel so well. But he said, oh, yes, what he was trying to explain away Zense was, was that, well, he had a cold so that contributed to mental freezes. Guys, he had a cold. He didn't have AIDS. Come on. Like this is, he had a cold. He didn't have like, you know, all, well, he has Alzheimer's,

he didn't have like a serious, you know, they're acting like a cold as like a serious disease. He had a cold. But it's because he already had a diminishing mental capacity already. and even Jake Sullivan, former national security advisor, backed the cognitive exam. I thought it was important. And apparently so did Anita Dunn, the communications advisor. Anita Dunn's interesting. You know how a lot of people got, because with the way that Elon Musk was working in capacity with the administration, I think you can only stay like, what, 180 days,

then you have to leave for X amount of days and then you have to come back because if you stay there permanently you have to divest from everything. If you're going to be a member of the, you're going to work in the cabinet. If you're going to work for the White House, you have to divest. And he didn't want to divest. So it was only like 180, you only work at, and that's like normal. A lot of administrations do that. That's like a little publicized. It's a rule. Not a lot of people know about it. But that's the reason why, you know, Musk was only able to stay for as long as he was, because otherwise he would have to divest from all of his businesses, everything, ownership of X, all of that in order to stay. So that's why it's only 180 days.

The interesting thing about Anita Dunn is she has one of the biggest PR companies in the United States. She stayed well over 180 days. She was there like the whole damn term. And she never divested from anything. Do you guys know that? She basically was in the same performative advisor role that Musk was, but she was never expected. It was never demanded of her to follow the law. And oh, you're here after 180 days. to divestry, you have to leave. And she didn't do that. She stayed there. Interesting. Interesting little known fact. But they were all saying even that he needed a cognitive exam, that he needed something. And a lot of people were very, very alarmed about it. So when the White House chief of staff tells the president's personal doctor that they need to

make sure they need to do a cognitive exam. That's a big deal, right? Isn't that kind of a big deal? I feel like that's a big deal. Why is this only coming out now? How many months now? Six after the election. Why is this only coming out now? Can you imagine? Think about this for a minute. Just play it out in your head. What if Trump? What if Trump? What if Trump? was having a diminishing mental capacity and the press found out that Susie Wiles was hiding it. Just I know you guys are like, oh my gosh, they would, oh, I can already hear the wailing. Hurting my ears. It's not even happening yet. Oh my, they would say, oh my gosh, the media, then you would have European leaders falling in line. Oh my gosh, it would be so bad, right guys?

So, the questions, you know. It's weird, right? Very interesting. I just have some questions. That's all. Just have questions about that. Now, remember, Zinz in his testimony,

he noted that part of his job was to make sure that the president met with all the advisors, the full range of advisors, consider the issues to make the best decisions, et cetera. I mean, he was running his life in the White House. And they all hit it.

They all saw it, and they all kept silent, and they all hit it. As more and more of this comes out, it becomes very clear that he was not in charge. There is less and less room for any questioning on that. He was not in charge, you guys. He was not in charge. It's stunning. And more and more is going to come out because there's other staffers that are writing books. They are. Other staffers writing books. So we'll see. But that's,

That's the chief of staff who's saying this. But again, these are the same people who lie about everything. This is from, what is, I'm looking at these numbers here. I guess this came out with, I think this is Hollywood. No, this is variety. Listen to this. August 2025. Jimmy Kimmel's show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, averaged 129,000 viewers in the 18 to 49

demo in August. Now, in January, it was 212,000. The drop, they said, is part of a broader ratings decline. This is from Nielsen data. The show falling to 1.1 million total viewers in August down 43% from January's 1.9. However, earlier in 25, the show kept hemorrhaging, kept hemorrhaging. So then by the time, you know, we get to here, averaging 129,000 viewers in the 18 to 49-19-49. demo. That means also, if, now think about this, if his viewers, if he only had $129,000 in the 18 to 49 demo and they fell to like not even a million, the rest are above 49 years old. It's all the

far left. And I'm saying Boomer. You guys have to realize, Boomer is not a pejorative. That's what the generation's called. If some people want to use it as a pejorative, fine. But when I'm accurately talking about boomers, Gen X, millennials and Gen Z, I'm going to use the parlance of our times to talk about the generations and I need people to get off my ass for it because that's the correct way to say it.

It's not a pejorative. That's just like Gen X isn't. Now some people can use it as a pejorative and I've seen millennials try to use it as a pejorative, etc. But that's the generation. So when I say that it's like that is over three quarters of his well over

of his audience were progressive boomers. Wow. That explains it. Now, think about that. Only 129 in 18 to 49, and I would imagine that all skews pretty upward in that demo. Young people do not watch late night TV. Like I said, I'm baby Gen X, and we, I didn't really watch late night TV. when I was little, I was like in seventh grade and Arsenio Hall was on TV and sometimes I would stay up late to watch the dog pound in Arsenio Hall. That was like the old

that was the only one I watched. I didn't really watch Jay Leno. Johnny Carson, I was too young. Didn't really watch Letterman, but I kind of watched Arsenio Hall. And I feel like the younger generations now, fast forward to 20, you know, the 2020s, I feel like if they watch anyone,

they watch Fallon because he does those little digital packages and puts content, these little digital bites out. And he's been doing that since he got the show, which is smart. Because when you break down, and this is only from like January, his numbers in that demo were like three times of what Kimmel's are. And they're higher than what Colbert's were. And I think it's because of that digital outreach and the guests that they have on and how they package all of it. Because the younger generations, for them, Fallon is more online than he is for them on TV. Kimmel does not do that stuff.

And nor did Colbert. I don't know if you guys remember that. None of them packaged their stuff up and did like the digital cross publication like that. And I think a lot of it is the younger generations just aren't watching them. That's going to be something that hits late night as a whole. So what is my point in saying all of this is when that happens, what is the left going to do? Are they going to say that they're being censored by the right when younger generations don't

want to watch them. You see what I mean? On the go and need a quick news fix with a fun twist. Follow Dana's absurd truth podcast for bite size informative episodes.

All kinds of good stuff comes out there all throughout the week. And of course, you can find us on YouTube and Facebook as well. There's always good stuff up there. And Instagram,

although Instagram is more, sometimes I put, I'll put more personal stuff up on Instagram, but not often. I just haven't as much. I think people live too much online. I'm like, yeah,

I just don't want to contribute to that. But every now and then I'll put stuff up about people being wrong or my dog, like Wick particularly, who has gotten very, very sassy and talkative lately. And next week, I'm going to have to ask you guys, what to do when your dog is obsessed with a toy and keeps trying to pawn it off on you like you're supposed to protect it.

He did this for four hours last night. It was insane. It's the drama of the beef cheek. That's his little chew toy. All right. That'll be for Monday. Today in stupidity. All right, Juan, this is cut 28.

It's DJ Jazzy crock-ish, uh, crock it. Don't you be doing Jeff like that? Sorry. Sorry about that DJ Jazzy, Jeff. Cut 28. Listen to what she says here. It's so odd. I understood what was kind of pushing them there.

And so I do want people to know that just because someone has committed a crime, it doesn't make them a criminal. What? That is completely different. Just because they committed a crime doesn't make, like if you rob someone, it doesn't make you a robber. I mean, if you kill someone, it doesn't make you like a killer. If I paint something, am I painting? No, you're not a painter. But you make music, Sicki.

You're a musician. What did you mean? I'm a magician. I don't do any of that. Folks, that does it for us this week. God bless you all. I will be back with you on Monday. Keep up the fight.
