Terms apply for more info. he's got out of e slash beads the danish show podcast your fast funny and informative news companion for those always on the move subscribe on youtube apple or wherever you get your podcasts i'm i'm confident that the admiral thought he was carrying out his mission why is it questionable why is it questionable to order a strike to kill uh individuals who are survivors are terrorists okay these are these are absolute terrorists you know i didn't see this kind of scrutiny when when the obama administration was launching drone strikes against terrorist organizations in the Middle East. I mean, that happened all the time, okay?

And so, you know, I didn't see this kind of scrutiny about the survivors, et cetera. These are terrorists. They're bringing poison into the United States. They have killed hundreds of thousands of Americans, and we need to understand that. Killed far more Americans than Al-Qaeda or Obama-Bin-Lylus ever did. And so I have no problem with the kinetic strikes that are happening in the in the caribine killing and destroying the drugs that are killing American citizens and have been killing American citizens for years.

Hmm. So, you know, what the argument here, and welcome back, Dana Lash with you, the argument here is that they're trying to say that the United States committed an act of war. Oh. Oh, really? Huh. And I'm just not going to take any criticism about this from Democrats. I won't, one of the, the first time there was ever on Bill Mars show before he, uh, repeated a smear of me,

uh, which was lame and stupid and a liberal was, uh, I was arguing with Paul Begala and I reminded him that Clinton bombed an aspirin factory in Iraq, remember, and Democrats were, were rushed to excuse it. There's a really good thread of all of the times Democrats decided that they wanted to just blow stuff up. I mean, a big long one. I mean, you've got the air bridge denial where they, oh gosh, remember the Peruvian

and Colombian jets, they had, this was over the Andes and they shot down a bunch of drug jets over the Andes. Remember that one? That was, uh-huh, I know. CIA was involved. One American missionary was killed. Then you have the billions that we spent,

the FARC, the narco-terrorist going after their routes, their drugs. rug routes, all of that. I mean, then they have, what, the 1993 Escobar thing, where he was marked on a rooftop, taken care of on a rooftop. I mean, how much do you want to go? I mean, let's not, I don't even, not even get into some of this, gosh, I mean, how far back do you want to go? How current do you want to go? Don't forget, Obama carried out over 500, I didn't realize this was over 500, over 500 drone strikes globally. And in collaboration, and in Columbia going after narco terrorists, September 2010. They had all of these drone strikes.

Don't forget in 2012, the Honduras thing. I wrote about this at the time. They had D.E.A. helicopters. There was a convoy, a flotilla, if you will, and they opened fire on this flotilla. And they found no drugs on board, by the way, either. Democrat said it was self-defense. Biden did it again. Colombian forces, FARC, all these narco sites. did it again in June of 2022. Did it again in October of 2023, a Colombian drone that was supported by the U.S. They took out a 12-man convoy that was heading to Sinaloa. July of 2024, again, Democrats celebrated the restraint of the action.

I mean, we can go on and on. It is the idea that this is somehow a new thing is idiot. or that Democrats have never done this, which is idiotic. Now, that's a separate argument from should Trump have done this. And that's, I think, ultimately, when you get past the hypocrisy of the left, which are not the good standard measure of this, you have to ask yourself, okay, well, what is the war crime here? I mean, you had a double tap. And what is the war crime? I would think the war crime is running, is the asymmetrical warfare backed by China that Venezuela is conducting against.

the United States with the illegal export of fentanyl. That's what I would think is the war crime. And this is simply national defense. So if you are like me and you look at it in that way, I'm trying to, then you can see why these arguments that the media and its left are making as to whether or not this is a war crime, why that sounds silly? Because this isn't just drug running. This is asymmetrical warfare of poison that is killing more Americans than any war.

And that's how a lot of people don't understand asymmetrical warfare. We have people who live in the, I mean, this is one of the reasons why the British were so unsuccessful during the war of independence. They wanted to wear their bright red jackets and stand in a line and conduct, you know, shoot, see who can shoot the most people. It's really what they wanted. They wanted to carry out of war. They wanted to partially for it to be a war of attrition. colonists didn't have those numbers so they had to be crafty they also didn't have the resources of the

British Empire so they had to be crafty asymmetric warfare borrowing tactics of whether it was native populations or really advancing the the idea of warfare as it had been previously conducted by Washington and others that's what it was all about and there are a lot of people today who think that we should still conduct things in the old-fashioned way. Let's everybody wear jackets and patches and, you know, everybody I don't know. That's not how things are done anymore. And that only works if all parties agree to those rules. All parties don't agree to those rules.

All parties don't even agree to the battlefield. So you've got to be smarter about it. This is asymmetrical warfare. And if you look at it in that perspective, then you can understand why the United, why the administration reacted as they did to these drug boats. do am I supposed to care that some drug runners were hanging off the side of a boat and they got double tapped am I supposed to feel sorry for them they knowingly engaged in this trade they went to work with cartels they boarded a vessel they're making fat bank running drugs am I supposed to

feel bad for criminal drug cartel members that's what the that's the question that Republicans need to be asking the left. Wait a minute. If you're going to, first off, do you not realize this is asymmetrical warfare? And then number two, are you telling us that Americans are supposed to feel sorrier for these drug cartel members than the thousands upon thousands that their poison has killed? Now, I'm not a chicken hawk. I'm actually not a big war person, for the lack of a better way to say it. But I also think that this is ridiculous. This is protecting the United States. That's how I look at it. I mean, now, do I want to see an invasion in Venezuela? Don't be stupid. And that would be stupid to think that. This is not talking about any kind of armed action and boots on the ground in

Venezuela. But I do think that they don't like sect war. I think they've been looking for a way to get a scalp. They've been looking for a way to knock this administration. They have not like sex war because he came in and told all these generals that they were fat to their faces. He came in and told all the pencil pushers who have never won a single war that they're ineffective and they all got their feelings hurt and they're all out for them. They've been promoting this one guy who came in under Jake Sullivan for crying out loud. I mean, all of this has been to go after sex death. It's for them to be able to get a scalp. That's what it is. Let's be real

about it. And they're saying, oh, he threw an admiral under the bus. It says the Navy leader ordered the boat survivors killed. Well, yeah, they do have that ability. They said, legal experts said that it is, they were trying to argue

that it's illegal under U.S. and international law. Whose law? International law is stupid and I don't recognize it. And here's the bottom line. F-A-F-O. You're going to run poison into the United States, we're going to blow your ass up. If you have a problem with that, then consider the alternative, not running drugs into

the United States of America. That's it. That's it. I actually want the chikoms that are trying to get a toehold in South America to be deuce and bricks right now, because there's more to this than just Venezuela. The Chinese are really, really trying to get a foothold in there. It's one of the reasons why there's a lot of pressure on Maduro, who's a Xi Jinping buff boy trying to get him out of the way. But these weren't alleged drug vessels.

They were actual legit drug vessels. And I don't care what Democrats say. They are completely irrelevant to me in this conversation because of the 500-plus drone strikes and the laundry list of actually the exact same thing. but they weren't in waters near the United States. They actually went under Obama Biden into foreign countries to carry these strikes out. There's a big difference there that no one's elucidating. So they're irrelevant. I'm looking at the people that want to be capital L or moderate Republican that are screaming war crime.

That's where I'm looking at. And I, a lot of people are saying this is a big problem for the Trump administration, etc. I'm just trying to so I again I don't recognize international law I don't recognize any international law that still lets China sit at the table pound all the sand in the whole entire damn world I don't care I want people to be absolutely terrified of the United States so be nice to us we don't ask for a lot don't send poison don't send a deluge of a legal criminal migrants and just be cool right

otherwise we're going to have to turn into Patrick Swayze and the phenomenal cinematic masterpiece since I haven't mentioned it in at least a month that is called Roadhouse which truly missed its moment at the Oscars so yeah a double tap and I mean are we supposed to feel

are we supposed to cry tears and then you have Mark Kelly who is so desperate to elevate his name he's trying to compete for a share of the notoriety with Gavin Newsom. So he's making his rounds. He's trading on his service. Oh, well, you know, the second, they didn't share all the information. Why would anybody want to share all the information with Senator Mark Kelly? They're trying to say that Heggseth allegedly issued the order to,

quote, kill everybody after a second strike. Well, if there's anyone left, why are we focusing so much on the United States response and not the Venezuelan provocation of continuing this? Why? I think there's, like I said, there's two ways of looking at it. There's some people who don't realize this is asymmetric warfare and other people who do. That is the big difference driving this. Because you have dinosaurs who think, oh, no, it's not a war technically. You know why? Because they don't have uniforms. They don't have all their patches on. They don't have members jackets. The Washington Post ran with their piece yesterday. Such a stupid hit job with their national security correspondence. that he verbally ordered U.S. forces to kill everyone. The New York Times did the same thing. They already been walking it back. I don't know if you've seen that or not. That his guidance was actually limited to pre-strike authorization

for a lethal kinetic operation. There was no mention of survivors and no mention. So basically, the way that I understand it is this. They're saying that it's illegal to kill the people that they tried to kill on the drug boat. Because their argument two days ago was, Oh, well, they tried killing some people on a drug boat. Okay.

Oh, but they tried killing the leftovers? Oh, my gosh. Now, that is big, bad, no, no. Doesn't make sense. It makes zero sense to me. So I don't know. I, I, when are we allowed to, I mean, so what if it's a boat full, like, that has a nuke on it and it's speeding towards the night.

It's not a nuke. Maybe, maybe, like, nerve gas or something. maybe a bio agent. It's in the sea. It's speeding towards the United States. Are we allowed to take that out? Or all of the overwrought emotional, bleeding heart liberal is going to get super upset over that. Please, won't someone think of the narco terrorists?

I want these people to make the case to the American people why it's acceptable to allow drug runners that import poison and kill hundreds of thousands of Americans, why it's okay to continue to allow. allow that. And I also want them to explain how it is not asymmetrical warfare, a provocation from Chinese-backed Venezuela. Part of this is to avoid full-on actual war, because you're not going to be able to get boots on the ground. That's stupid to go in Venezuela. But how do you stop poison from coming into the United States? You make people terrified of bringing poison into the United States. What is so hard about this? What is so damn difficult about this for people to understand? We're not going out in nation building, so spare me your neo-peer. con BS.

All the people say neocon, you're actually neocons. I'm so much more anti-war than you. You should bow down and kiss my ass. This idea that we can't sit here and blow up narco terrorists running a boat. What would you do? Seriously, make that case. I want

those people to explain themselves. As we move, our partners over at Ammo Squared. It's a great business idea. By the way, this would be a great gift for someone.

My daughter is now saying, damn him, damn Trump, and smashing her hand on the table. And I said, wow, honey, what are you thinking? And she said, he made us move in order for our own safety. And it's now he's destroying the country. You know, listen.

Wow. She lives here. She hears what I'm saying to you. Not that I go around speaking like this every day if it's not an interview, but I think to myself, you don't want to give this to her.

She apparently gave her, she's, I just think that if your kid is that, like, worked up, you're doing something wrong. wrong as a parent. That's kind of insane. She's banging our hand on the table. We had to move.

Rosie O'Donnell elected to move. No one made her move. No one was, I mean, for crying out loud, your people were shooting at Trump and killed a conservative activist. So spare me this like victimhood mentality. No one gives a rat's about you. No one cares. I don't even, does she even live here? I don't even know. You know why I don't know. Because I don't care. that's why all these people like oh it's all about me no I didn't even know she moved did you know she moved where did I don't even where did she move to made a big deal about it Ireland I literally would rather like wash and flat under my hair

than have anything to do with talk about Rosie O'Donnell for like any period of time it's just I just find these people insufferable and I have a pet peeve I have a pet peeve of overly dramatic people for I have a pet peeve of people who don't pull their own weight I got a pet peeve of people who make everything about them and a pet peeve about overly dramatic people.

Today the UK becomes the first NATO country to open up every single role in our armed forces to people living with HIV and on treatment, meaning that they can't pass the virus on. This is a substantial milestone for equality and enhances our warfighting readiness by valuing people based on their talents and abilities, not outdated policies and stigma. We've been working closely with our partners, the Terrence Higgins Trust and the British HIV Association.

So I'm curious. First off, this isn't Britain. You know, I guess the prevailing thought is, if you don't fight, you can't bleed. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you, top of the second hour of the chats at Rumble, Channel 347, DirecTV. So this is a real thing. I'm not making this up. It's, um, it is from the Ministry of Defense. It's in Britain. and they're described as secure at home and strong abroad official acts channel for the UK Ministry of Defence. And they're talking about World AIDS Day. And in their post on X, they say the UK is proud to become the first no donation to open up every single role in our armed forces to people living with HIV on treatment. You know, because it's super easy to get the treatment in an act of war.

zone, meaning they cannot pass on the virus. So their idea, I mean, seriously, if you're in an active war zone, how do you get a consistent supply of your treatment? Anybody? What is the cost of this also? Does the, I mean, this is Britain, does the British taxpayer have to foot the bill for treatment? You know, I keep, you know the song I have in my head right now is the AIDS song from Team America. AIDS, AIDS, AIDS. How bad is they recruiting? I mean, if you're diabetic, you know, screw you, you can't enter. But AIDS, come on in.

If you have, like, flat feet to the point where you have orthotics, you can't come in. But if you've got the hiv, come on in. You know, I'm trying to wrap my mind around this. How do you... And then NATO? Where's NATO on this? I mean, I don't know. They said, we're the first NATO nation.

Well, yeah, you're the only one. You're going to be the only one. Imagine you're out on the battlefield and you're trying to, you know, you're a medic and you're trying to patch up some dude that got blowed up and, you know, what if he's got the hiv and what if he can't get treatment? I mean, how do you get treatment in an active war zone? You know, it's real easy to get the stuff they need, right? This isn't hell divers.

You can't just like, you know, put in a code and have this ship beam it down to you. It's not how this works. It's not how it works. It doesn't work like this. Stop it. Oh, wait, I need to make sure that in my stratagems, I get the Hiv treatment. Got the Hiv treatment that's just blasted down on OSHA-une, is that the correct? Yeah?

You're not even listening. What are you doing over there? No, not you. So I'm just trying to understand this. How this, Kane, would you? I mean, you know. I just think of all the industries where blood could have. happen. It's the military. So I don't understand. Are they really like are they avoiding

conscription by doing this or what are they what's the effort here? It's like if it's a bad policy, the UK wants it. The dumber the better. I think surely they I mean this is the stupidest things I think I've ever seen in my life. And it's also such a like small number of people as well. I don't know. And by the way, apparently it would cost British taxpayers about 400,000 pounds in treatment costs per patient. And that is according to the UKhsha.gov. com.com. Hmm. So are you supposed to tell people, hey, it's not a big deal if you're a risky lifestyle choices that in which you engage results in you catching a disease that would ultimately cost the taxpayer of 400,000 pounds

and treatment costs per patient. You have the option of just not going in the military. You also have the option of just not being a drug user or a whore. There is that. Dana, that's so mean. What am I supposed to do to be like, oh, poor you. Who knew that you could get all these diseases by, you know, screwing everything with a pulse?

Who knew? I just can't believe they did this. This is, I mean, the extent to which some people on the left will go to make it seem like they have a no problem with whatever issue you're dealing with is crazy. I, I, it does, no, don't type it in it. What are you saying? Oh, yeah, the monkey pox. They did it with monkey pox. Kane, who were the people that got the monkey pox?

It was the gay people that engaged in. gay people stuff basket weaving yeah that was one way to say yeah so there uh yeah I don't that's that's I don't know I'm just

that's almost okay so let me tell you about about what Portland's doing there's a piece up right now on chapter and verse Portland has a I don't know a woke tree

I'm trying to figure out what was going on with their Okay, so when you think of a Christmas tree lighting, what usually happens? Like, if your town has a Christmas tree, like, if your town has a central location in the city and the town, they get this giant tree, they install it, and then they go forward with decorating it. Yeah, all the celebratory things around it, yeah. So at the tree lighting ceremony in Portland, they kind of did it differently. They had, I mean, what, a thousand or so people. they were in Pioneer Courthouse Square for the city's 41st annual tree lighting.

And they didn't really, they didn't mention Christmas. And the event kicked off with, and I'm going to try to get there this, a woman from the confederated tribes of Warm Springs thanking everyone for coming out on Native American Heritage Day. And then they referred to the ceremony as the tree lighting. And then the microphone was handed to another speaker who just, decided to who was a Hamas lover and decided to use to chant quote free Palestine and said quote this is the perfect time to bring this out there are lots of genocides going on can I get a free free quote unquote Palestine and then some of the crowd oh but it gets better then she decided

to lead the crowd in the strong woman song is this from South Park or is this like an actual song. What is this strong woman song? I don't know. And I guess it's like a Native America. I don't know. I don't know what it is. It's just not appropriate for a Christmas tree lighting. You miss the

mark here. You have one job. And then she goes, I felt it appropriate since we're representing our matriarchs up here. And in our contributor piece over it chapter and verse, you know, famous Christmas matriarchs like Jesus, right? That world.

So then this was like an hour of this. They had a couple of Christmas carols at the beginning, and then it kicked into the Hamas stuff. I don't know. Then they had the mayor address, the crowd, bring out Santa Claus, and then they switched on the tree. Apparently they didn't even say Christmas. They just said tree. It's the tree. man it's not like that so there's a town nearby where we are called grapevine texas the main street

you can't even walk down it it's so bright and like the coated coated with lights it's merry christmas baby jesus nativities santa you got trees you got everything and it's they call it the christmas capital of texas it is can you know that you know that street it's tell the folks how bright that them lights are. Yeah, it would put the vacation home to shame. Christmas vacation? Yeah, it makes Christmas vacation look like amateur hour. So why does it, I mean, what's the problem in saying Christmas tree?

Don't do it if you're not, if you're going to do this stupid stuff. No one wants to hear you up there, filleting Hamas. Nobody cares. Get down. Like nobody cares about all your, you know, you're ridiculous. Do they actually have a Christian up there on the stage? I'm curious. was an actual Christian on the Christmas tree stage.

You got this terrace, this terrace B up there with her flag of a non-existent entity. I don't know. I'm just, I'm curious. Why does it, and people were asking, why does it have to be so divisive? Why is everything so, well, that's the left. That's what the left does. They have to ruin everything. So I don't know if they actually had any real Christians up there, you know, talking about,

the Christmas tree, as it were. So, I don't know. This is why aliens don't visit us. Can I save this story for you? Because, you know, we've confirmed a planet, our, the UN said that they, when the UN says that they have planetary defenses,

what they mean is our planetary defenses. Yes. So they said that Earth's planetary defenses are going to be observing the interstellar comet three eye Atlas as it races through our solar system. Somebody said it had a heart beat? What?

I'm pulling this up. Okay, yeah. So hold up. Here to go. Let me pull this up. New York Post. This one dude who terrifies me because of all his science stuff, Avi Loeb,

he's at Harvard, he says it has a heartbeat, a pulse that could provide evidence of artificial origin. A space turd's got a heartbeat, Kane. Well, I mean, there's a lot of celestial bodies that give off a frequency and I would imagine. No, he said heartbeat. He said the pulses could be periodic thrusts for orbit corrections or some internal cycle with the spacecraft. Well, I just think they're finally catching up. Listen to me aliens. Let me tell you something. Come to Texas only. Everybody else is weird. Florida is all right, but be careful because you've got

Florida man down there and everybody's got machete. Tennessee's all right, but they, you know, they get real proud of having some better gun laws than we do, so it makes me mad. You know, Oklahoma's great, but it's real windy and flat. They'll see you a mile away. Just come over here to Texas, because we got brisket. Just come to Texas, you know, and don't go to California. Don't do that because you'll immediately get stuck with a fentanyl needle and die. Don't go to New York because you'll get killed by a bunch of illegal aliens.

I mean, you know, the dangerous ones. and just come to Texas. But I mean, I would be all right with us. What a nice fun thing for Christmas if it just, you know, that space church just, bleep, descended and it's like, hello, where's your... Texas brisket could reduce the amount of abductions. That's how good Texas brisket is. Don't abduct me.

Here's some brisket. Right? Right? But I wouldn't, I wouldn't, I don't know. They said that there is, all of these images, they were, some of this stuff I don't. They said the periodic modulation of its life. has to originate from puffs of gas and dust that scatter the sunlight around it.

They said the puffs are periodic like the bloodstream of a heartbeat. And it has multiple jets, which they speculate it could be like advanced artificial thrusters. I don't know. And it looks like maybe an intergalactic Morse code. I don't know. They said if it was a natural comet,

comet that there would be some indicators for that. So I don't know. It's very weird. I feel like this is a really long setup to something that is a sci-up that they're planning. Like what? I don't know. Like they want a one-world government.

So imagine what would unify the world. Yeah, all these suckers are on their own. Hell no. I would want to enlist the aliens and then make everyone fall in line behind us. Yeah. I mean, I'm enjoying these little stories and updates and the heartbeats and all this. But I think that there's a larger sigh up in play with this as the narrative. You're not wrong.

Beginning to be nervous about that. Yeah. You know, but it just needs just, we're the only, we're the leaders. Only come here. That's what I'm saying. We got a lot more on the ways we rolled awards, Florida, man, our partners that help bring you the program. It's the folks over at Superbeats, the turmeric chews, which is, this is one of my favorite products that they make, actually.

I think this is, this is one of my favorite supplements. And they taste actually so ridiculously good. It's like a like a light orange citrus flavor. They don't add sugar to it. They don't add anything like that. So you're not, you know, spike in your blood sugar. But it's a turmeric product from human and it's all designed to support healthy inflammatory response with clinically studied turmeric curcumin complex now they don't add just like any turmeric because a lot of the times you know your body being people's body struggle to absorb it fully and so you don't get all of the

standard turmeric extract. So it makes the benefits convenient and enjoyable. It's super easy to take. It's one chew. You're unwrap and you eat it. That's what it is.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. So a six-year-old federal program designed to help American businesses cut debt and get a fresh start.

They've set a record for the number of cases, bankruptcy cases filed. according to court data. More than 2,200 people and small firms filed bankruptcy this year under the subchapter five rules, so making it cheaper and faster to win relief from creditors. This is from Equip Bankruptcy Analytics. So these are, you know, higher costs, cautious consumers. These bankruptcies are hitting records, hitting a new record as debt is rising. Also, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.

I wanted to get this Shopify outage. Everybody was talking about this on Facebook. So Shopify services were temporarily interrupted as an outage on the e-commerce platform, disrupted retailers on Cyber Monday. So is that, did I hear correctly, that Cyber Monday this year was like one of the busiest that we've ever had, ever? We're expecting $40 plus billion in actual retail activity. I'm not sure what it ended up being, but. interesting. They said that access to the admin interfaces was temporarily unavailable for some

merchants, but they said it looks like they got it mitigated. They handled it and they got it turned around pretty quick. But oh my gosh, apparently everybody was talking about this on Monday. Going back, let's see. So the fat jabs are changing how people spend money and time and eating. It's made, it's according to MSN, it's creating a psychological shift for the people taking them. and it's affecting So I read a story I don't know which one it is or if they're all the same or what

but they were saying that those jabs actually help addicts or they help deal with alcohol addiction I didn't know that's kind of crazy we get a lot more on the way stick with us folks who'll help bring you the program it's the people are friends over at burn a gun burn a gun shoots chemical irritant

projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away and with burn a gun they don't care about gun free zone signs there's no gun free zones they're inapplicable. There's no background checks. There's no permits. It can be sent right to your door. Now, I always carry. I have no problem using lethal force. But as I've said a million times, I also understand that there are local and private property and municipal restrictions that may disarm someone and make it to where you can't carry and protect yourself. So you want to make sure that you have a diversified weapons array. You carry knives just like you carry different calibers. The burn a gun is no different. And there's different models, but honestly, what's the point of it if you're looking for something that's going to be, concealable and that you're looking to protect yourself when you can't carry your concealed handgun. And this is where the CL comes in. That's a compact launcher. This seems like arguably the size of a cell phone.

Everything made in the USA. And it's, again, no, no recoil, super easy target acquisition. And when you consider stun guns, compared to a stun gun, that's like maybe one or two rounds in a stun gun, with the burn of CL, you have a 15 round shot capacity per cartridge. So I mean, in terms of deterrence. There's just, there's not a comparison. Visit burna.com slash Dana. Get your hands on the new, Burna, C-L, B-Y-R-N-A-com slash Dana. Burna, tell them Dana sent you.

How would you... Where would you place yourself when you think about all of the other Democrats on the national stage, and you are taking a turn on the national stage because of the way this race has been going? The president's labeled you the AOC of Tennessee. Are you the AOC of Tennessee? I resonate with Democrats who have been trying to lower cost for working families and those that don't take corporate PACM. Tennessee is a state that has been bought and sold to the highest bidder.

and the reason this race is so close is because voters in the 7th district want someone who is not going to sell out to special interest but will represent the people and that's why I hope we will be able to pull out this win tomorrow hmm so that's Afton

Afton Bann I can't deal her name she's the one who hates everything about Nashville but also wants to represent Nashville remember she was going off on the um uh what was she mad about the mad about country music the the pedal taverns yes the the pedal things and then the women who go and yeah the bachelorette yeah bachelorette parties probably because is she single and miserable maybe that's why probably here's my issue and i'm pulling up

all my notes on polling on this this is the tennessee seven district and I wanted to look and just to make doubly sure the reason is because I'm a little this is kind of a weird I think people need to pay attention to some of what folks are saying in terms of kind of a canary in the coal mine. with some things with the GOP. From what I understand and looking at my notes, this was a district that Trump took,

he won in 2024 plus 20 and Tennessee's 7th congressional district. He won it in 2020. He won it in 2024. He won it by plus 20. And

obviously, 2016. The reason this is an issue is because the polling has the Republican two points ahead of the Democrat. Now you might say, and these are likely

voters. The latest so the average is two points. The latest that came out four days ago, Emerson College. This is a really legit poll

margin of errors is a little higher, 3.9, but it's almost irrelevant because, I mean, this is even oversampled by Republicans plus three, and it still only shows the Republican Matt Van Upps plus two against Afton, Ben. now this is a solid Trump district plus 20 there's a reason why a lot of Republicans are nervous about this because we had the last elections Virginia that was a wash that was really bad for Republicans in Virginia you had the New Jersey thing and people were saying oh well these are kind of purpley states, blue states. That wasn't the issue, though. The issue is also in all of these other states that had municipal and local elections where you had Republicans that underperformed. Now, Glenn Yonkin, when he won, originally, he overperformed, was not the case this time with Republicans. So this is one of these races that people are very nervous about because

there is, and I'm not saying, I need people to stop looking. at, at those of us who know how to read polling, who know how to watch trends, this is literally what I did for years with CNN and ABC and Fox. We know how to watch this stuff. We know what to look for. And I'm telling you, there is something bubbling up that needs to be corrected. Otherwise, this is going to hurt coming up in midterms. People who, those of us who are very cautious because we like to win have never been wrong with this stuff. I've never been wrong. Ever. I mean, I wrote a book predicting 2016. In 2020, I was saying that there were some issues in some independent, heavy, purply blue state areas that the GOP didn't address.

And in 2024, we're starting to see some of this. And a lot of it is the economy. The approval on the economy is starting to fall out as it really, as it terms of favoring Republicans. And this is a very closely divided. Congress. Democrats have been working over time trying to flip a lot of these red districts. They've been doing, they've been putting in a lot of leg work locally. And this is what Republicans really fail to do. You have to understand that national wins are built from the ground up. National wins are built from the unattractive backyards. Everybody wants to focus on

the national politics and that's great. But you need to focus the same, if not more, attention locally because everything comes from the bottom up. If your base locally is not, you're not going to motivate people from the top down. If your base locally is not motivated to turn out and vote, that's not going to bode well nationally to say nothing of it, not voting well locally. There has been an absence, I believe, of GOP voter outreach. I think that the operation, I think the RNC has not been run well the past couple of years. I do not think it has been at all. And unless they course correct some of this, it's going to be a problem. This is also one of the reasons why I've been warning people away from this griper nonsense. Maybe it

doesn't move the needle yet so much in meat space, but it gives the optic that it does. And fake it to you make it as a saying for a reason. Right when you build a big coalition, the last thing that you want is to have grifting dividers infiltrate a movement of which they've never actually been part of and never contributed anything to try to divide it and tear it apart based on leftist identity politics. That destroys coalitions. And people will see that and it will affect those independence because elections are determined in the margins and this will affect that. That's one of the reasons I've been sounding the alarm on that. It's less about the people in charge and it's more about how this is, some of this stuff has to be dealt with. This is troubling in Tennessee for it to be

this close. And this is not necessarily, this is not, you know, a blue district. A lot of independence in the street. Again, like I said, Trump took this plus 20 in 2024. He's always been double digits ahead. That's why it's incredibly disconcerting to see a plus two. And that is an average. There's not a single poll showing him pulling a significant lead. And most of the polls, he's behind. And maybe you could say that it has to do with candidate quality. And this is too late in the game to talk about candidate quality. The debate on candidate quality has to do with that comes during the primary, vetting for the primary.

The other problem is that this isn't and Kay makes the point, well, it's a midterm office cycle election. but that's not how polls read it. Polls are always consistent in terms of enthusiasm, even if that enthusiasm doesn't necessarily translate to boots on the ground at ballot boxes. The big issue is there is some sort of discontentment. This has come up in polling, even in obscure places. Like they had, there was polling done.

There were a number of municipal and local races in different parts of Kansas, Wichita, for instance. And Republicans actually took a negative seven hit. or sorry, a negative seven hit in polling in those areas. And these are solid red areas. There, the Virginia, there were some Virginia districts that Trump really performed well in that took hits during their last election. There is a big issue here that needs to be addressed by Republicans. And the answer can't always be, well, don't listen to the lamestream media.

Like it's a spin. It's not. We're looking at the math. And the reason that we're sounding the alarm is because we actually want to win. We don't want to stick our heads in the sand and let the, this problem bubble up, course correct now. Because if you don't, Democrats are going to exploit the ever-loving hell out of this. And they are going to beat Republicans into a hole in the ground coming up in midterms. There is a sentiment that is taking root and it is costing

Republicans' enthusiasm and voters and ultimately as a result victories. And it was, was only in, I mean, I'm sorry, I think it's way too late that the national Republican, that the RNC got involved in this race. He had already been on the downturn looking at defeat before the RNC got involved, in my opinion, in the 11th hour. They've had meetings over this. There's been a lot of discussion. I know that they've, they've dumped a lot of money now to add buys, et cetera. The, and looking at some of this stuff, like there's a gender divide. Men have been breaking for in Tennessee Van Ups.

Women have been breaking for Ben. And you're looking at anywhere from 51 to 42 in terms of men for Van Ups, 50 to 44 for Ben. But women, both of them have a, each has a 47% favorable rating amongst voters. 41% unfavorable rating. Trump holds a 47% job approval in Tennessee, 49% disapproval rating. This is a huge reversal because when he carried that district by 22 points, he had, I think it was like over 50% approval.

It was like almost 60% approval rating. Something is up, whether it's messaging. I think a lot of it is people are, some of the stuff that I am hearing is people are saying that a lot of these trade deals aren't being made fast enough. And so there's some discontentment with the taxes and tariffs and, you know, inflation, things like that. People are happy with immigration and looking at some of this stuff.

But there is something going on here. And I think it's stemming from the economic policy. it's not hitting fast enough what have I told you in the very beginning Republicans have to hit the ground running and they have to get these wins and get these notches and get these deals and start providing allowing economic relief to hit taxpayers or you're going to see a revolt in midterms my analysis and looking at this and this is early

is that this discontentment is starting to drive this and the approval as it relates to the economy is already starting to dip, not tank. I think the spin is by how much. The reality is it is a dip. The spin is by how much? That has to be course corrected immediately because a lot of these things take a little bit for voters to feel the benefit of it. And I know everyone's like, well, let Trump cookies doing this stuff.

Guys, we don't have the luxury of that. we had both parties that screwed around for decades and now we are in crunch time we do not have time on the clock to let you cook you got to get it done now or you've got to find some kind of stopgap in order to get it done otherwise you're getting your asses kicked in midterms and then you want to talk about a lame duck you're going to have the lamest duck remaining of this presidential term that you've ever seen you're going to see a fight for SCOTUS. You're going to see courts overhauled. And you're going to be an impeachment paloosa.

So all this griper nonsense, all of that stuff, this is all a sci-up designed to distract and divide and actually usher in Democrat victory in midterms. All of this. We need to focus. You got to talk about the economy. You have to excommunicado. these people that are bringing division and trying to divide the coalition, which is hanging together by threads, in order to crawl across this line coming up in 2026, because all this is going to get worse.

Don't forget, we're going to be back here in just what, Kane, four weeks? Yeah, pretty much six weeks. Battling over the budget and another shutdown. And guess what? They're going to do a three-month agreement, and then they're going to be, then you're going to be back here in spring. They're going to do another three-month agreement. then you're going to be back here

into summer, right when election is really kicked up into high gear. Democrats are looking long term. Republicans are just fighting to keep their heads above the water with us. So I'm warning you you got to have wins on that board, and I'm not just talking about announcements.

I mean actual codified wins. In effect, wins. And Republicans need to be spiking the football hard on the wins that they have because people want to see those victories. That's not gauche or vulgar to do so. People need to be reminded of the wins that have been delivered. That is how, that's part of outreach. So I'm warning people, it's not spin. It's a warning from people who desperately want to win.

I was reading about this this morning and isn't it the way that I understood it to be is that It is a billionaire that decided to put $250 into the accounts of 25 million American kids kind of kick-starting the program.

And there's terms of eligibility. Michael and Susan Dell, they pledged to put $250 into the accounts of 25 million kids in one of the largest ever philanthropic donations to Americans. They said it's seed money. They're calling them Trump accounts. And they're going to gift the federal government. Now, this is where I've got a problem. I have a major problem with this.

Federal government's going to give $1,000 to babies born between January 1st, 2025, and December 31st of 2028. The Dell's separate donation will extend the program to kids up to 10 years old. There have been really, you know, even though we've got people like Bill Gates who always talk about raising taxes, there have actually been very few donations in the past 25 years that have exceeded a billion like this,

so it's the largest. But the bigger thing is the federal government giving all these kids $1,000. Now, looking at Forbes, looking at this piece here, give me a moment, I'm pulling this up, so they're calling it the Trump account program it's a component of the one big beautiful bill

that was passed earlier in the year so it's a one-time federal contribution separately of a thousand dollars this is welfare am i wrong i mean where's the money coming from i pay out the nose and taxes and i'm not getting an extra thousand dollars so why am I penalized and we work hard I worked till 11 o'clock last night I filed my column for the Washington Times and I was getting stuff prepared for today so sorry but if we're just going to start giving out taxpayer dollars to people how in the hell are you telling me that the same is some Obama stuff now the Dell thing separately

I think that's fine. That's, you know, private people want to donate, that's fine. But this $1,000 federal dump into people's bank accounts. How is that not welfare? What am I missing? Because that is not a private. That's not part of the Dell philanthropic. gift that's separate so i'm curious because this is i mean a thousand dollars into a new

investment account for all children born between january 1st 2025 and December 31st 2028 i mean cane that's going to end up being billions yeah as long as they're a u.s citizen that's still irrelevant to me it's not just for any child born it's still well fair it's still welfare I mean, that's I mean, yeah, I get pretty salty about it because it's, and I, this is where, look, what did I tell you all last hour?

Republicans are already having a hard time with the, with messaging on the economy. This is not the time to turn into socialism. And I've already been seen a couple of pieces about this. In fact, I got, I got a couple saved. Some of the stuff that I was seeing just this morning. Number one, is economic anxiety driving people to socialism. Number two, it gets into Republican woes on economy prime for socialist support.

You got a, look, I'm going to tell you, what was the other, what are some of the other programs I talked about earlier in the year? Paying women to have babies that was floated and proposed and heavily lobbied in D.C. And now you got something like this. This is welfare. This is just wealth redistribution. It's all it is. I would disagree with the fact that it's welfare as we know it. Welfare as we know it now is government provides the money, people take advantage of that money immediately, and then it's gone and wasted or whatever.

This is still government providing the money. No, it's true, but this is something that cannot be touched by anyone until the recipient is 18 years old. That doesn't matter. That's still the government. To me, that's enough of a nuance to not call it welfare. That's not a nuance. It's welfare. You're taking people's money and giving it to other people.

I'm not getting $1,000 back in taxes. It's going to some kid. No, no, no. I don't know. Right. An 18-year-old, and they don't get it until they're adults. Yes. So this is not like we're out buying bread for hungry AOC babies.

Yes. Now, what if the administration, I'm not saying that they've said this because I've seen rumors of this, but haven't seen the administration say it, that this money is not coming from taxpayers, but coming from the extracurricular things the Treasury has done and made money from. With taxpayer dollars, that's all taxpayer money. Yeah, but these funds that have already been allocated and already out in the sphere making that money and coming and bringing that back additional money. Then I want more tax dollars return to me. If that is my money that's being used in that effort, then that's my money still. And he's addressed that with the elimination

and the talk of the elimination of the income tax. My tax is talk of it. All we hear is talk. Well, that's all this is right now. There's no, no, well, no, this is a plan that they're actually going to propose and push. Yeah. And I guarantee them to you, they're going to be giving out $1,000 to everybody popping out kids from the, from January 1st of 26 all the way going into 28. They're going to, that's, and which is federal money coming in from the federal government. I mean, we're not getting any of that back. No.

They haven't cut our taxes. That's going to get passed before there's any reduction in the tax burden. And people can go, well, you got a tax relief in the one big beautiful bill. You got a pittance. Republicans gave everybody a hand tap and they wanted to be celebrated for it. The tax cuts in 2017 were made permanent in the big beautiful bill. And then the talk of eliminating the income tax because of what's coming in from the activities, financial activities. Well, I mean, you have all this, you know, I guess you're certain that this will happen, but not with that.

Did they repeal Obamacare? No, they haven't even They haven't even had the conversations yet That's why I don't think that they'll ever get rid of income taxes Yeah, there are certain Republicans that are Which we don't agree with extending the subsidies We'd rather fix what's broken And not continue to throw money at what's broken

Which is what the left and some Republicans are suggesting with the ACA. Lorraine makes a good point. She says that $1,000 per kid should be used to pay down the debt because that will help all of us more. Yeah, I would agree with that. I agree with that. I would agree with that. Because this is just welfare.

The way they're talking about, about it, it's welfare. It's complete Obama welfare. It is no different than what I'd expect a Democrat majority to propose and pass. I would like the administration to contextualize these things in a way that doesn't leave doubt or doesn't leave some more questions, right? Because that's where we are. And you're not confident that the actual, that they won't pass this, right? Correct. And but you are kind of confident that he won't pass income tax. No, I know he won't, because A, there's not enough Republicans that'll do it. B, there's not, there's no Democrats that will do it.

It's never going to happen. They'll never do it. I mean, you would have, I mean, and the simple fact is it's easier to overhaul Obamacare, which is a major drain on the economy right now. It's easier to overhaul that than it would be to get rid of the income tax right now, and they can't even do that. I agree because overhauling Obamacare would just simply mean ending it. Exactly. That would be, that's easy to do, which is something we should have done a long time.

time ago. I'm not, guys, I'm just going to warn you if this passes the rage. This is the stuff I'm talking about. I'm not going to go out there and blow smoke up people's back sides and be like, oh, it's a good thing. It's not. This is a disastrous to give, it's welfare. That is welfare. So, uh, I don't know. I am just, I'm, I'm, the private thing, the Dells, good for them. If that's what they want to do with their money, I applaud them. I think that that's, you know,

it's a wonderful thing that they did. But the taxpayers kind of sliding that in under the door. Oh, yeah. And by the way, the federal government's going to pay $1,000. So the Dells give your kids. And the Dells are just doing, it's 25 million kids.

How many kids do you, you know what? Let's ask, let's ask AI. I'm going to, I hate using AI. I, I've asked it two questions. This is the third thing I've ever asked AI in my life. How many kids are expected to be born in the United States between January, 2025 to January, January, January 1st, 2026. oh okay because it says 25 yeah January 1st 2026 and January what first 2028 let's see let's ask it's thinking searching the web oh already that was very fast so they're looking at so they're look at that's two years 24 full months covering all bursts in a calendar year oh gosh cane

many a lot seven million three hundred fifty thousand six hundred and sixty seven so a little over three and a half milly per year yeah so that's now there's some those aren't great birth rates when you think about it no it's horrible birth rates so if you're looking at giving each one of those one thousand dollars uh oh wow that's a lot of money uh i mean that's billions. Is that $735 billion? That's what I'm seeing. I know we've got to go here in a moment, but we're going to come back to this.

Dude, because we're just made of money so happy that we all get bent over a barrel and taxed to death. It's great. Yeah, and Lorraine asks, does anyone actually believe that that program would be allowed to end in 2028? Hell no. no that might be one of the worst things the republican party ever does and now all of the news you would probably miss it's time for dana's quick five

uh i'm pretty sure kane is this an anime species in chernoble in the chernoble disaster zone is mutating and it feeds on nuclear radiation it's a black fungus the blob. That's what it sounds like. The Mutants of Chernobyl. It's apparently a dark fungi, and it displays a radiation hunting behavior. So it didn't just survive the fallout. It now grows faster when radiation is present and actually moves towards it.

That's insane. and it gets it has a radiation eating superpower that is it's given from melanin the name of the I'm not going to say this right the fungus is the C spherospirmenumumum sounds yeah it sounds legit uh let's see a man was killed by a tree that fell on him while snow blowing yeah it is that time of year oh this is this is sad it's in Minnesota National Weather Service a man was killed by a tree that fell on him. Wednesday morning. The 69-year-old was found by his wife and the high winds. The tree was covered by heavy wet snow, just made for a disaster. Let's see. This, a lost generation of news consumers survey show teenagers dislike the news media because it's garbage. That's why

it's absolute garbage. No shock there. No shock. Also, the last supermoon of the year. Do you watch this stuff. I don't. It's going to be coming up in December skies here soon. It's going to be 14% bigger than the last super moon. Apparently it's Thursday. Stick with us. More in store. Subscribe to the Dana Show podcast. Because who says you can't make fun of people while staying informed on your own personal time? Subscribe on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you

We were talking about this proposal, this giving kids money. So you have this billionaire couple who are gifting the Dells. They're putting $250 into the accounts of 25 million American kids. Now the federal government, they're going to give a thousand dollars to all babies born between January 1st, 2025 and December 31st, 2028. So we were doing the math on that, and that's like seven, I don't know how many. The birth rate actually was

kind of low, honestly. Seven million 350,667. That's estimated in between that. So you're looking at 7.3 billion. So 7 billion, 350 million, 667,000. Now that's the estimated, if you're it's an annual, or if it's the, not annual, sorry, if it's the $1,000 to the kids. Now, that's, as we were saying, is welfare, absolute welfare. And I think that the one big, beautiful bill was great, and we got tax cuts that were made permanent, but it only amounts to something like 1.6 after tax income. so it's nice but considering that I mean I'm getting a fraction of what I paid in taxes

a fraction you guys would die if you knew what I paid in tax that's why I get because I'm like the poorest person in my income bracket I don't have like multi-million dollar network TV money we don't have that it's a we it's a very small operation like we don't I'm not going to say too much but that's just that's how it is we do not have a multi-million network behind us. It's just us. So I get really aggravated about this stuff because there are things

that we would like to do, like expand the studio and things that we can't because we have to, you know, I've paid a lot of money in taxes, enough that it would be several salaries. Yeah, nice salaries. Can't expand. You can't hire anybody else on. And that's just the way it is. So I get really aggravated being told that I'm being forced to give my taxpayer dollars as a form of welfare to pay people for having kids. That's welfare. That is not Republican. It is Democrat. And if it costs Republicans votes, I hope it does because they deserve it for proposing some Obama level nonsense. That is assinine. And as Lorraine said before break, it would work so much better to go towards paying down the debt.

It really would. I know that people are obsessed with Hungary in terms of modeling what Hungary did because everyone only goes a third of the way into the story and then they stop. So they always like to say, well, Victor Orban, you know, in Hungary they were paying people to have kids to save their birth rate.

And guess what? It didn't work. The birth rate fell again. It only lasted for like a year and a half. and the birth rate dropped again. And there for about nine, like nine, ten months, it was actually lower than the low that it was prior to that program. It didn't do anything. There are a lot more factors at play than just that.

It is a myopic, ridiculous way to target an issue that has more variables causing it than just money. It is absolute welfare. It is an insult to voters. And if Republicans want to lose midterms, go ahead. because there's, I mean, we were told over and over again by this damn party, oh, we're going to repeal Obamacare. Obamacare is such a drain on the economy.

It has ruined health care. Republicans, how many of those people did you hear tell you? Oh, we're going to repeal Obamacare. You heard their promises. Oh, just give me your vote and we'll go repeal Obamacare. Four years since the damn thing passed in 2010. that's what we heard and they never did

in fact they're talking about now extending the subsidies they can't even stop that and even when Republicans had more numbers in the house they still didn't do it so now you're hearing the same thing all over again oh we'll vote for us

because we will make sure that this is done that this is repealed I don't believe you no one believes them so it's a problem now this I don't know it's welfare

plain and simple and it's going to cost over $7.3 billion of money that we don't have we're already spending and people are already overtax you know I'm looking at this and it's great

you know the tax savings and the one big beautiful bill making not all of them were made permanent some of them sunset but some of them were made permanent so don't let don't be fooled and I we've talked about this in depth but the percentage of after tax income it's one point on average it's 1.6 so half of what you're going to be getting back is is going away basically to pay for this I if people want to increase the birth rate reduce government government, reduce spending. That will, that would do so much, but they don't, people are too

lazy to see that in D.C. And they don't want to do it. They don't want to spend the political capital to do it. So instead of effort, they're just going to allow us to slide further into socialism. As mad as you were over too big to fail, you should be equally mad over this. And you have every right to be. And people who say that criticism of it, oh, well, you're just betraying your party. No, the party will betray voters by doing this. That's where the real betrayal is. It's not America first. Just take your voters money and give it to other and redistribute the income. That's Obama first. That's what Democrats did. That's socialism first. It's not America first. So it's a real, real problem. Real problem. There's a lot of infighting right now on the

Republican side, too, and they've got to get over this. There's, you know, we were talking about Sec War, Dan Bongino as well, who's head of FBI, they've really been going after Sec War for this stuff and for the Venezuelan thing. And I keep seeing this audio of Mark Kelly. He really wants Hegg Seth to be the tool that he uses to leverage himself into more of a national profile so he can compete better for president. And he has really been hammering this hard. I saw some video where he was like, oh, he runs around talking about lethality and warrior ethos and killing people. And that's, you know, that's not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense. Actually, it should be, yes. It's the Secretary of Defense. It

absolutely should be. That's absolutely what should be happening. I mean, Secretary of War now. We've, we've been to, that's the word I'm looking for, vanilla. And we've allowed so much in this nation. It's, I like a more patent-esque approach, myself. I like a patent-esque approach. That's just sort of my thoughts on it. And Mark Kelly's mad. Mark Kelly, of course, thinks that he is the bouncer for anything that, anything that, anything has to do with veterans and government. Okay. I don't know.

I got a couple of other things to talk about as well. The Islamism in America. It's a real thing. We're starting to see more of it. I wanted to share with you this piece that I saw that has to do with immigration. And remember, we've had issues of some of these Afghan nationals that were here illegally that overstayed visas. in the New York Times the other day, they were talking about the deluge at the border and really in conjunction with this and social security numbers and Minnesota, Somalia.

This was an actual paragraph, quote. Mr. Biden allowed many migrants to enter the country temporarily as a way to incentivize them to cross the border illegally. Those people became eligible to work in the United States, receive social security numbers and in some cases receive federal benefits. I'm sorry, what? Let me read it again.

Mr. Biden allowed many migrants to enter the country temporarily as a way to incentivize them to avoid crossing the border illegally. Kane. I feel like reading comprehension isn't this author's strong suit. If they're entering

even temporarily, that is still, Kane, illegally. This is the New York. Times. This is one day ago. And then giving everybody social security numbers and federal benefits. I mean, I know you probably don't forget this because we played and saw those images on the show when it was going on. But remember when Texas put that razor wire on the border and then the Biden administration brought forklifts and lifted that razor wire up

so these people could illegally cross over. Yep. Literally that was their main efforts. Yeah, right in front of Border Patrol. Those were their main efforts then, and it apparently still is today. Yeah, we let them come in, so they didn't come in.

Let them come in illegally, so they didn't come in illegally. Right. Makes no sense. That doesn't make any sense at all. Not at all. That's okay. Also, relatedly,

I got two stories here to get into. Let me get. this father this honor killing I keep seeing stories about this and this has been this is coming from Red State and it talks about an honor killing

that took place May 1994 so they're seeing more honor killings in Europe and we've already seen a couple of honor killings here in the United States. One of the most famous ones was just a few years ago here in Irving, Texas where a father killed his two daughters because they were too westernized.

They have been talking about in the Netherlands, they have been having issues with us. They had an 18-year-old who went missing, and after she was reported missing, they found her partially dismembered. Her father and brothers are being prosecuted, and they said that they killed her because she had disgraced their family, and that, quote, honor killings are a part of our culture end quote they said that they the one of the her brothers lord her to rotterdam where they took her to a secluded location the father joined them and then they killed her and they have been fighting dutch prosecutors saying this is our culture and you're being

racist for prosecuting you are being racist for prosecuting us for what's in our culture So their argument is that they should be able to kill people because it's part of their culture and if you prosecute them for it, you're the bigot. I'm actually surprised the Dutch prosecutors didn't totally cave at that. That's for real, that's a thing. That is an absolute real thing. And now you have, I was reading this report, pulling this up.

Middle East Forum says in Europe, there are about over 900 no-go zones across Europe. The New York Times was one of the first publications to write about it when several years ago they wrote a piece about how certain parts of Paris had become no-go zones, particularly in the evenings. And then it started happening in the U.K. Is this going to be happening in Minnesota? I'm curious. in Minnesota, they had a Islamist named Kualinli Ebrim who kidnapped a 12-year-old girl and raped her.

And remember how I told you in the Netherlands of the brothers who committed the honor killing? Their defense was that this is part of our culture and you're a bigot for prosecuting us. Well, guess what they're doing now in St. Paul? The St. Paul Islamic Center wrote a letter of community support for this violent rapist saying that he just hasn't assimilated yet into non-Somali culture.

That is a real thing. It was this summer. They wrote a letter to Judge Michael Burns, seven paragraphs, and they said that he has to still provide for his family, and that it's cruel, and that he just hasn't yet assimilated into non-Somali culture. They literally use the same argument

that the honor-killing brothers used in the Netherlands. It's already happening here. Brighten up your timely news consumption with a Dana Show podcast, where every update comes with a little dash of Not So Serious on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts.
