So everybody has to ask themselves why. It has nothing to do with health care, the subsidies that they're saying is the issue is not the issue. That is an issue for the end of the year. December 31 is when that expires. So Congress has three months to negotiate that. Certainly we could work on it in the month of October to find some consensus. So that's everybody knows it's the Speaker of the House, right? Everybody knows it's him.

So, yeah, Mike Johnson. I liked his press conference. I thought he had a good press conference. today where he was explaining all of this. And it was, I think it made a lot of sense. And he explained it in a way that, I mean, hopefully the press will understand this because you can tell that a lot of the members of the press asking questions about this don't quite understand how the process works.

Or they do and they're just being disingenuous. Because this isn't not, this isn't a difficult thing to, to, to, to, you know, to, to figure out. I mean, good heavens. They passed the CR and it was good enough for Democrats to vote for it once already. There you have it. Welcome to the show. Dana Lash with you. This is the radio program. You can watch us do the radio show at Channel 347 on DirecTV. And you can also watch us on X and Facebook. The chats at Rumble, all that good stuff. So we've got the latest with that. They're apparently going to be bringing it up. We're going to have another vote coming up on that. And maybe. I was reading this piece, and I'm going to pull this up from the Wall Street

Journal this morning, where I think it's interesting because previously in the administration, there were a lot of questions about leaks, a lot of questions about how tight of a ship POTUS was running because so many things were leaking to the press, right? And Kane and I, we've talked about that ad nauseum on this program, like the first administration. I mean, my gosh, like so many things leaked to the press. And it wasn't in a way that was advantageous for the White House, which is a signal that it was not a White House leak. It was, you know, someone trying to hurt the administration. So I say that because when I was reading this piece this morning from the Wall Street Journal, it said, White House Census Political Risk on Health Care despite shut down provado.

Trump aides are discussing proposals to extend Obamacare subsidies on which millions of Americans rely. Now, before anybody reacts to it, just think of this for a moment. Because the, I think the story here with this Wall Street Journal piece is that this leak, when you read this story, it's very favorable in terms of advantageous to the administration. And I think this was someone from the administration leaking per Trump's request so as to get a more favorable footing with negotiations. They're pressuring on negotiation, I think. Because John Thune and the White House had both said, there's not going to be a negotiation so long as the government shut down.

We're not negotiating. You pass the damn thing. And as Mike Johnson, and one of the reasons why that soundbite was a little long that we came in with, is he was explaining very clearly, look, here's the whole thing. We don't have anything to negotiate with because we didn't put anything in there. Mike Johnson said that they didn't. And they really didn't, which was one of the reasons why it passed the House. I mean, this was one of the reasons why a lot of conservatives were ticked off at Mike Johnson and Republicans,

because they didn't have a lot of big conservative wins in this bill. It was pretty much a straight, you know, CR. I don't like it. We're going to talk to Senator Rand Paul later on in the show. He doesn't like it. But this idea that this is the Republicans that messed all this up. Again, they passed it in the House to push it through. And Democrats are saying, well, we need some more concessions.

what other concessions are they supposed to make? They don't have any conservative agenda items in there. They don't, and as Johnson said, they don't have anything to negotiate with. They don't have any other things to take out. They don't have anything. So what are they expected to do? That's just it. So Democrats are really, I think, over their skis with a lot of this.

And this Wall Street Journal piece, what it suggests is that, well, maybe, you know, they can, you know, if Democrats want to, you know, consider it, maybe, maybe we'll consider some of the subsidies. I don't think necessarily that's true, but ending the Obamacare subsidies, and I hate Obamacare. I was negatively, you know, it's not just me. I'm sure there's tons of other people that were out there negatively impacted by Obamacare. Literally the worst health care. It is such a disaster. I could sit here and spend the entire show telling you how horrible it is. We lost doctors. I lost actual specialist, pediatric specialist. We literally had to change doctors because of Obamacare. One of my dear friends who had breast cancer was fighting breast cancer in St. Louis had to find a different doctor in the middle of it because Obamacare would not cover her specialist. That is a fact. And there are a lot of other people out there who went through the same damn thing, paying three times more for just heinous coverage. That being said. the subsidies, Democrats and Republicans both, neither of them, I don't think either of them, Republicans just really pooed the bed with us. There were a lot of opportunities they had to try to weaken it, tried to strip it out.

We warned you back in 2010 when they passed this that it was going to be its fate accompli, it's done, it's going to stay. And it has, it has for the most part. And they're Republicans, and this is what the Wall Street Journal piece touches on, They're going to have problems with the subsidies, too. The Wall Street Journal writes that ending them is going to result in higher premiums for 20 million people. Of 75 congressional districts where at least 10% of the population is enrolled in Obamacare, 62 are in red-leaning, Florida, Georgia, and Texas, according to Kaiser Family Foundation. More than half of the 62 districts in those states are represented by Republicans. GOP strategists have warned of the fallout of the expiration of this.

Trump's pollster, Tony Fabrizio, issued a memo in July, outlining the risks, for Republicans, for not acting. They said that by broad bipartisan margins, voters want to see tax credits extended. They don't want to see that expired. And they said that they're talking about the, the Obamacare subsidies. So there is, Democrats get hurt in this more than Republicans do, but Republicans can't also get heard of this. I don't think that they're going to be able to, they're not going to be able to repeal Obamacare. They don't, they barely, they can barely pass a fart in the House in the House in this.

Senate. What do you mean that you think they're going to pass a repeal of Obamacare? When they had more of a margin to pass Obamacare during the first term, they weren't able to do it. So the extending the tax credits is pretty much the only thing that they can do at this point. And I understand that. This is the cards that you have. It doesn't mean acknowledging that extending the tax credits gives Republicans a little bit more of a lifeline is not saying that you like Obamacare. That's a mental abortion to make that argument. And we don't believe in mental abortions or abortions otherwise. So, I don't know. So this is what Athoon is signaling that, well, we might be able to kind of negotiate.

Now, they pulled that so as to have a carrot. Because that's really actually all they have to negotiate. This is, again, one of the reasons why everybody hated this thing on the right because it was just, it's still such a trash bill. It's just garbage. So with this, what they're looking to do is basically it's more advantage. for them to do this. It's advantageous for them. It helps Democrats out more while preventing Democrats from getting anything else. But here's the problem. We're going to do this again in seven weeks. This is the downfall of not having a budget. So coming up, we're going to talk about how I, can you believe this guy in the UK carries out a terrorist attack?

Well, alleged terrorist attack in the UK, right? And his dad loved what Hamas, did on October 7th and talked about it online. And the guy's name is literally jihad. Wonder what the motive was. Hmm, that's a top one. We're going to talk about that. We also have Charles Payne coming up. We're going to talk with him real fast coming up at the bottom of this first hour. As we move, our partners that help bring you the program, our friends over at Burn a gun. It's always important. Look, I carry, I tell you this all the time, I carry. I have no problems using lethal force to protect myself and my loved ones. But I also realize that there are times when you're not able to carry because of municipal restrictions or private property restrictions or asinine laws that say 18-year-olds can go and carry full auto in defense of their country and foreign lands, but heaven forbid they're not responsible enough to carry a 9-millimeter semi-automatic pistol here at home if they're living alone and going to college.

That being said, this is where the burn a gun comes in. You believe in diversification of weapons. That's why you have rifles and pistols and different calibers and blades, etc. This is just adding to the diversification of your self-defense array. Burn a gun shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away when you compare it to a regular stun gun that has one or two rounds. The burn a gun outmatches it by 15 rounds shot capacity per cartridge. No recoil. Easy target acquisition. The CL, the compact launcher, is the most compact model that they have. It's the size of an iPhone.

And there's no gun-free zone sign that matters to the burn-a-gun. It doesn't care about gun-free zones. It's illegal in all 50 states. You can buy it online and have it shipped to your door. There's no fees. There's no background checks. There's absolutely nothing that is barring you from being able to make sure that you have a means with which to defend yourself.

Just nothing more than a surf on the Lord's Manor. Check out the watchdog on Wall Street podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever. you get your podcast. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. Wow, this is a headline. Kane always tries to find me the most depressing stories.

I do. And to start out, I think you just want to see the reaction. So this dude is accused of decapitating a seline and putting its head in a plastic bag. He says they're all lies. I really would love a pet sealine. He says that the government circulated a photo of it. him seeking to identify a suspect accused of sawing off a sea lines head and carrying it away in a plastic bag it's the national oceanic and atmospheric administration's fisheries lawn for golly could you

shorten your department name they released a photo they offered a 20 000 award he's like he goes i didn't do it i did not decapitate this animal he said he was at the beach with his daughter but there was a monterey resident who said i literally saw you and your daughter and you were leaning over this thing prodding it with a knife so i don't know uh he apparently told her we're just taking the head He wanted the skull, I guess, to dry it. So was it already dead or did he kill the thing and then cut its head off? Because if he killed the thing and cut his head off, I'm all about tying a giant stone to his feet and then throwing him out into the bay. All for that.

So I don't know. I just think people also need to chill a bit, just a smidgen. Let's see. Poor sleep can age your brain by a year, according to studies. But what if you're a person who only needs like six hours of sleep? I can't sleep longer than six hours because then I feel like I'm being punished. because I just have to lay there and like I can't go back to sleep. And it's like when you're a little kid and you're told to go take a nap and you lay there and you're like,

because it's not happening for me. I'm not a napper. So I don't know. This is obvious though. Healthy sleep, blah, blah, blah. How many more studies do you need? Google reveals home AI that can see if your kids stay up past bedtime and it can even fix the dishwasher. Look at that.

It's exchanging surveillance for a favor. It's trying to buy off your you. just completely accepting surveillance with, well, I can fix the dishwasher. Also, I got some new gadgets. Y'all like some gadgets, right? So you get surveillance for gadgets. That's the big thing. That's why I don't like all the talking stuff on the, I don't even like, you know, Siri being on.

It's weird. A pet owner forced a driver to kill his dog to dig the dog's grave at gunpoint. What's wrong with that? Where's the problem? This is New York Post story. Albrado Hernandez is 22. Yeah. So I don't see what the, I didn't see anything.

What? What's the problem? Charles Payne next. Our partners that bring you the program. It's the folks over at Relief Factor.

Like, what's going to happen? What's going to happen with the mortgage rate? What's going to happen with all of this? Let's go to our financial. What do you call him? The Oracle, the guru, like the smartest man in money? Like, he's the guy that I want. want, just planning all of my finances in my life. Charles Payne, who's the host of making money

with Charles Payne weekdays, 2-2-3 Eastern on Fox business. It's good to see you, my friend. So I don't really have any complaints about the shutdown so long as we get some permanent cuts out of it. I just kind of wanted to get your thoughts on that real fast. I'm in the same boat. You know, honestly, I barely have barely, barely covered it. You know, it's like, it's typically a non-event, you know, it's more political posturing. Honestly, I, I hate, When this happens, I usually hate both parties because it tells us about the nonsense with this so-called temporary debt ceiling. I've lost track. We've raised it like 60, 70 times over a couple of decades, and it's just the farce, but it just sets these periods up.

You and I'm both hoping, Russ Fonda's starting to emerge, right? Like, he might be able to be, do go much further than Elon Musk could have gone. And so everyone's got their fingers crossed, and they're hoping. But by the same token, they let this thing linger. they've never gotten rid of this thing because it's the best time for them to do the horse trading. Ironically, this is when government normally gets bigger, not larger, right? Everyone says, okay, I'll cut a deal. Let me just get my bridge to nowhere.

And so maybe this would be the turning point. Oh, that is a very good point because this is when a lot of bad stuff kind of goes down. This is when all the deals happen. This is when they shake hands under the table, just as you were saying. So Democrats seem pretty scared of Russ Vought, though. Do you think he's a good guy you like him? I do. You know, it's, it was hard for me to get the first time around to get to, you know, he's a, he's, he's not easy, right?

Necessarily, you know, he's not personable, I think is the word I'm looking for. He's a nerd. And so honestly, when he was reappointed, I had questions. I really did, but I've interviewed him a lot. I've looked at his work, and I really am convinced he's the right guy. Ooh, that's good. So if you're back, and I feel pretty good then about all of this. All right.

So we're talking with our good friend Charles Payne host and Make a Money with Charles Payne. So what does this mean all of that? Because everyone's like, okay, shut down. How does that affect me financially? What am I going to get out of it? Because I know that now the Wall Street Journal was signaling that, man, maybe they're going to talk about the ACA extensions for those tax credits. That, you know, because that also, I think, helps Republicans, not just Democrats. But like, are we going to see, is this going to affect mortgage rates? What is this going to do overall to the economy? I mean, are we going to see mortgage rates in the threes? Are we going to actually get some decent policy that's going to. going to have this trickle-down effect and have a really good benefit for Americans, or no? Not necessarily from this, but I think the wills are in motion for what you're talking about. You know, we'll see what happens ultimately at the Fed with Lisa Cook. But we know that at some point next year, this will be the Donald Trump Federal Reserve, which means it will be more accommodative to Main Street, not Wall Street. And we're starting to see it now, you know, and it's so sensitive because before the last Federal Reserve

meeting and everyone knew the bet was going to cut the long long term bond yields came down mortgage rates came down and all of a sudden mortgage applications went through the roof we had a little bit of a bounce since then and mortgage applications have frozen again i think they will resume back to the downside and you know i think we'll get like a five handle on mortgages and that's when you're going to see a boom a really good start of a main street boom and this is something we need we need relief on these credit card bills. We need relief on these auto loan bills. People are taking out 84-month auto loans. Some of that is on you, though, right? I mean, give me a break. If you want to have a whip so bad, you'll pay $1,000 a month just to look good for any of your friends,

then that's on you. Yeah, that's a great point, though. I mean, always, you know, you can't have the champagne taste on a beer budget. Can't be doing that. Talk about that friend. I had an uncle, let me tell you, Dan, I had an uncle when I was a kid up in Syracuse. And, you know, I was shocked because he lived in a single white, but he always had a brand new Cadillac, right? I'm like, what the hell's going on? And even as a kid, it shocked me like, this ain't right. Something's wrong with this. Your life is not matching your car.

What's happening here? I get that. I get it. Because you were mentioning, too, need a little bit of relief here. I keep seeing these debating headlines, whether it's in Wall Street Journal or Politico, et cetera, that talks about fallout from the tariffs because we keep hearing. Well, the doom is happening. Well, is it, though?

I mean, there's going to be certain things that you're going to see a price increase on, but also you're gaining that in deregulation and cuts elsewhere. And, you know, if we ever get like a decent budget. But, like, give us the perspective on this because we keep hearing that, oh, it's just going to get worse and worse. The doom is coming from all the tariffs. The economy is going to be wrecked. I'm not seeing it. And I know I ask you this when you come on with me and you're so gracious with your time.

But I'm still not seeing it. So I just feel like this. This is fearmongering for the sake of fear mongering. It is fair mongering, and this is one of these things that's brought political and a Wall Street Journal and in New York Times all together under the same umbrella because a group of them just hate the idea because it's Trump driven. Another group hate it because it goes against the corporate orthodoxy. We're going to hurt corporate profits.

How dare we do that? You know, we have been fooled as a nation to live for corporate America. This is really a sad state of affairs that we're in right now. And we've got to lull ourselves off of that. You know, our savings rate is anemic. And really, listen, the idea is for us to spend, spend, spend, spend, borrow, spend, spend, borrow, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, spend the money with, they do great, you know, and they have done great. Think about where we are right now. We've got the stock market at all-time highs, home prices at near all-time high.

you've got, you know, Bitcoin at an all-time high, gold at an all-time high, and yet we're in a jobs recession. This is scary stuff, and the imbalance is horrific. And part of this is we need to be able to help small businesses. A couple of days ago, we had the ADP jobs report. There's five categories, two small, two men, and one large companies. The small and mid got slaughtered, slaughtered. The only people hiring were large companies. And so these small businesses, they need to be able to borrow money at a lower rate.

People need to be able to, households need to be able to borrow at a low rate. The Fed deliberately tries to hurt the economy, but all they've been able to do is hurt the middle class over and over again. So that's for me, it's really the most important issue. As far as these tariffs are concerned, listen, we have the tariff shock on it. We had the inflation shock under Biden. That continues to linger. You can raise your prices. I don't care.

You know, you can raise your prices. People aren't going to pay it. And we're already seeing that with companies that have to eat these things. And by the way, Japan is eating them. China's eating them. People tell you differently just are not being honest. They are being eaten along the way. Hey, when they can pass them on, they can pass them on.

But Costco reported to earnings last Friday. And the stock has been down since then. They've de facto admit it. Most of the things that they sell, if their price is up, from now, they have to eat. And guess what? I have no problem with that. For a century, corporate profits were between six and eight percent, their margins. Now they're 15, 16 percent.

That comes off the back of you and I. Listen, I'm a capitalist, but I'm also a realist. I'm also a humanist, and I want us all to participate in its booming economy. Yeah, I agree with that, totally. I completely agree with that, and that makes a lot of sense. I mean, that's, you know, that's why I think you need to be working in the administration. Can you imagine Charles Payne and Russ Vought in the administration, both of them? I'm telling you what.

Always good to have you, my dear friend, Charles Payne, host to making money with Charles Payne. Always appreciate your insight. And I try to watch you every single day. And I know my family watches you every single day. They're big fans. Thank you. Always good to see you, my friend. Take care.

Thanks a lot. This Russ Vaught, I had this story because you saw the meme that Potus had posted on social media where it was. Can we throw that up on? The meme where I don't think we can play the music. It was like a, they redid. Blue Oyster Cults. I can't remember. That's right. For the Reaper. They readed a

Blue Oyster Colts song, which I thought was actually pretty good. And then he posted this meet. This was the top story. I got to pull up. This was the top story this morning, like everywhere. I go, oh my gosh, Trump posts this meme. And it was Trump in this. He's got a cowbell. And then he's got this black

cape on. And he's just hitting the cowbell. So it was like a little throwback to SNL. This is it right here. And it's a song about Russ Vaught, about how Russ Vought is coming and he's going to reduce the size of government. Now, can you imagine how Democrats? Yeah, do you want to hear the real song? Well, we can, yeah, you can play the real song, but we can't put any of this on TV, so

it might as well. But you got the video and it says he wields the pen, you know, et cetera, here comes the Reaper. And they're talking about Dems you babies. Here comes the Reaper. Going to tie your hands. Here comes the Reaper. It's hysterical.

So he posted this meme and the left is like, that's so violent. Did you see those? Did you see those responses, Kane? It's so violent though. Look. He's the Grim Reaper and he's carrying it. They didn't know what his scythe was. God bless their little baby, summer child hearts, little baby hearts.

Let's go to weapon and he's beating this metal object with a stick. Yes, it's called a cowbell. How do people not even know that reference? I mean, Steve even knows that reference. Good night. And there, oh, it says, it's just, it's him trying to make Democrats afraid he's threatening them. You guys are not taking this and trying to use this as a way to get out of the Charlie Kirk, that culpability. Or the previous two assassination attempts on this president's life, not having.

happening. Not happening. But this mean that they had. And then you have USA today. Oh, Trump is no stranger to shutdowns. Well, who was leading the shutdown, though? How is it Trump shutdown when it passed through the House and it went to the Senate? Republicans in the House did their part. They don't control the Senate. Democrats, they, or they, they don't, they don't control Democrats in the Senate. Democrats are doing what Democrats do in the Senate. Republicans are trying to do, they're trying to continue what the Republicans in the House did. I mean, I feel like I got to break this down to baby talk. The drivebys know this, though. We have more on the way. We've got days of these United States and coming up. Let me just tell you what's on deck. So in the UK, now you actually had Israel's

president reach out to Kier Starrmer and King Charles to beg them, please, please pay attention to the rise in anti-Semitism in your country. And then the suicide belt-wearing synagogue attacker, who he was an Islamist terrorist. I don't know. Who could have seen that coming? I mean, his dad loved what Hamas did on October 7th. So did he.

His name was literally Jihad. I mean, you have a lot of names to, no, I'm going to pick the name for the Holy War. You got all these other names out here. Nope, nope, picking Jihad. I mean, I wonder what the motive is. We're going to touch on that. We also, coming up, are going to get into the Pentagon's finally published the new guidance on physical fitness.

I can't tell. I don't think I can say what I have that listed under. Anyway, so we've got a whole bunch of stuff to hit as we move. Chapter is one of those entities. And look, this is a win-win for you. You hear it's Medicare enrollment season. It's like now you know the seasons. You know Thanksgiving.

You've got Christmas season, your fall season, your spring. Now it's Medicare enrollment season as well. If you don't even need Medicare, you are paying attention to it because you hear all these ads for it all the time. So this is where Chapter comes in because it can be very, very confusing with this. Medicare plans, they can change every single year. So even if you're happy with your current plan, you still have to check to see what's coming out in 20206. And if you do not review your options, you could lose coverage that you depend on. So this is why I recommend calling Chapter.

Chapter reviews every plan nationwide to make sure that you're not over paying. on average, they can save people over $1,000 a year. Chapter stands out because their advisors are salary, and they advocate for you, not for the insurance companies. And nobody wants the hassles of dealing with more calls or stress, but Chapter can check out your options quickly in under 20 minutes. So if you could save yourself a year's worth of hassle, just in under 20 minutes on the phone with Chapter, that sounds like a good deal.

So if your current plan is still the best fit, you're all set. If not, they can help you switch. There's no gimmicks, no pressure. Just honest advice from experts who know Medicare inside and out. It's so easy. Under 20 minutes, remember, dial pound 250 and say the keyword, my Medicare. Say both of those words. Dial pound 250 and say, my Medicare. Medicare's too important, so don't risk it. Work with a partner you can trust. That's chapter. Pound 250, keyword, my Medicare. Get the lowdown on the latest news with a side of laughs.

Like Sands Through the Hourglass, so are the days of the United States. A few actresses that he named actors that are worried about what's happening in the U.S. Are you worried? Of course. No, I mean, we have a president who's completely, he's not only crazy. He's a dark, dark presence. and it's happened so quickly. Six months, he's almost destroyed our country. What? Gali, Papa Midal, Grandpa. What do you mean?

He's spent six months. He's almost destroyed the country. How is he almost destroyed the country? Be specific. Well, you know, the stuff that you... ICE going in arresting people who went to the country illegally and then continued with criminality? Like, be specific.

These people can never do that. be specific use your words goodness don't they not teach you how to do that at the home uh fair question Richard gear he's still around look at that 76 years old he is an older

76 i know 70 year old people we have 70 year old people in my family that do not seem like they're 70 years old he seems like he's 90 years old he's just you know he's about to offer a Werther's original to that reporter so the uh that's just i i just

find this all hokey. I mean, he's, you know, he's Hollywood brainwash. He's got to say this stuff. If he wants to have a job, if he wants to have a job, he's got to continue saying it. So we've got a number. We got a lot of things to discuss. So I'll just, let me, we got Senator Rand Paul is going to be joining us later on. We're also going to talk about, I think, Israel and the right. I think there are a lot of people out there. who are trying to emulate Joe Rogan and they think that even though they don't know dittily squat

about certain geographical locations or the history of certain nations that they should be taking seriously when opining on it and to have your opinion is one thing but to act like it's the same in terms of weight as someone who actually does know what the hell's going on over there

well case and point we're going to play this Theo Vaughn had some commentary and I was just listening to what he was saying and I scratched my head and I'm like, go back to being funny and talking about that guy who had like no arms and, you know, no legs or whatever. What was the joke? I didn't remember. Go back to being funny. Don't pull a Jimmy Kimmel here, ma'am. So we're going to talk a little bit about that coming up. Also, the, uh, this terrorist. So this is kind of a weird. I've never seen a leader of one nation. In this case, it was Israel's president who reached out to, King Charles and was begging him, please pay attention to what's happening to the rise in anti-Semitism in your nation. And this comes after this suicide belt wearing a jihadi named jihad. I'm not making that up. That's actually his name. He was wielding a blade. He had a fake suicide bomb vest,

and he went on a six-minute stabbing spree, killing two, injuring four, after he, ran his car into a park and targeted worshippers at the synagogue. Six minutes stabbing spree. Six minutes stabbing spree. Faith leaders were urging the government to not let a growing tide of religious hatred stemming from the conflict in the Middle East to poison Britain streets. Kier Starrmer said he warned that Britain faces a rising tide of anti-Semitism he gave his statement and then Netanyahu reached out to him and then also the royal family apparently and was saying look this is this is a problem that's happening in your country right now this is a serious problem and they and then they had people out in the streets protesting in favor of

Hamas after this guy was killed after they had two people killed and and four injured I mean this is just crazy this is insane and it's getting worse You know, when people say never again is now, okay, well, it's now. I'm telling you, there is a tidal wave coming. And I think it is purposeful division and a lot of people are taking the bait on it. A lot of people are taking the bait on it. And it's kind of sad to see, especially some people I thought were pretty smart. We're going to dive into some of that as well.

That's going to be an ongoing topic of conversation on this show so long as it exists. Second hour on the way. stick with us.

Live a better, safer digital life and use web route. Welcome to the program. Top of the second hour, ladies and gentlemen, Dana lash with you. I don't know. So I got to bring this up immediately. Sec War. Just posted like 20 minutes ago. A video.

Let me read it to you. And then what I need you to do right now, because I want to give you the full experience of this video, is I need you to put yourself in 1980s, Miami. Get a little keytah going and have some Miami Vice theme going in your head. This is what Sec War said. Quote, earlier this morning on President Trump's orders,

I directed a lethal kinetic strike. on a narco-trafficking vessel affiliated with designated terrorist organizations in the USS Southcom area of responsibility. Four male narco terrorists aboard the vessel were killed in the strike. No U.S. forces were harmed in the operation. The strike was conducted in international waters off the coast of Venezuela while the vessel was transporting substantial amounts of narcotics. Cocaine. Headed to America to poison our people. Our intelligence, without a doubt, confirmed that this vessel was trafficking narcotics and the people on board

were narco terrorists and they were operating on a no narco trafficking transit route. These strikes will continue until the attacks on the American people are over, end quote. So, we'll show you the little video here. It's a little, not a little boat,

but it's a nice little speedy little boat. Speedy boat, blasting through the waters. Imagine the key tar going. The flamingos. You have to imagine it. We can do it. What? Whoa! Can you just replay it? Gnwan. Just we got to

yeah, here's the boat. No, just keep it on going on loop and then just give me some Miami advice for the radio audience. Yeah, well, come on guys. So that was me. Get into the key tart Oh, you got to yell every time the boat blows up. I could watch this on loop. Look, they're coming with fentanyl and cocaine and fentanyl and fentanyl and

fentanyl and then no Segwa. Oh! I could just keep watching this over and over again. So for those of you watching the TV, we don't, we can't pay the licensing for the Miami theme. Miami Vice theme. So only the radio people get the Miami Vice theme.

But good night. And it just, just, you know, blowed up. Now, okay, now it's serious, though. Serious, though. Thank you, gentlemen. You know what this means? It means that the sharks have the fentanyl and the cocaine. So now we've got a bunch of coked-out Heiskeight sharks.

In the Caribbean. That, I'm just saying. Have we studied that? I mean, we've studied lesbian obesity, and we've studied, like, different kind of monkeys on cocaine and shrimp that got, like, some kind of, like, uppers? I swear that was, like, a whole thing, I promise you. But have we studied, you know, with respect to the narco-trafficking transit route in the Caribbean? Have we studied the sharks on the cocaine cane?

I don't think we have. I don't think there's been an important or lengthy study on that. Just saying. I've seen a lot of shark weeks. I haven't seen anything about them being on cocaine. Now cue the left. How dare you blow off the drug dealers that are not even American? They're Venezuelan and they're international waters coming into U.S. waters to drop off fentanyl.

How dare you? Always whose sides are these people on. It's what they sound like, Kane. You heard them, right? You hear them in your dreams. It's what they sound like every time. So, just, I don't have a problem with that. Don't, uh, the only thing that would make it better is if you had a drone that looked like it was outfitted to look like an eagle.

And it could fire little missiles off. You know, I'm not saying that I've experimented with the drone that we have or anything like that at all in any way. But, you know, it does have a weight limit to how much. So you got to be careful what you have. send up, right, if you want it back. Just saying. So, yeah, this is someone called it Top Gun Caribbean. Just saying. I mean, that looked like a pretty clear hit. Man, they were booking it too, trying to get that fenton all over to Poison Americans. Look at that. All right, so let's talk about terrorism. Let's talk about the guy named Jihad who carried out a Jihad. I mean, his name is

literally jihad. So a suicide belt wearing Manchester, this is a Manchester in the UK, he decided he, uh, he decided to carry out an attack and killed, he was stabbing attack for six minutes. He murdered two. He injured four others. And then check this out. His dad, his dad's a super uber terrorist creep as well his dad praised Hamas terrorist after the October 7th terror attacks

wow praised them and the doctor he wrote on of the October 7th attacks Mr. Al Shammie wrote

men like these prove they are men of God on earth and regardless of who leads them, they are the real compass of men who are confident in their victory. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Palestine, blah, blah. So, yeah, he's a big terrorist. He's a big terrorist, Farage al-Shamey. And he named his son Jihad. Now think of all the other names.

Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed. Mohammed. Muhammad. I mean, you know, it's like all those other names and they chose jihad as his son's name. Kane, you know, we joke

like if your name is Crystal with a K and you got an eye in there, you're going to grow up to be a stripper that wears Lusite heels for your whole life. When your name is jihad, the same logic applies. What other options do you have in life when your Terry father

names you jihad? What are you going to go be a barista at Starbucks? What are you going to do? No, your whole, your, his father raised this man up to just hate Jewish people. This isn't a guy who's like, I'm just disagreeing with the Israeli government. No, he just literally hates Jewish people. So he went on this six-minute stabbing spree. And it took a while.

Wasn't it the guy who stopped him? And six minutes, think about how long that is. Think about how long that is. That's a long time to go on a stabbing spree. And then one of the guys who acted, he intervened, who ended up being killed, they called him a hero. And the guy, by the way, the jihad al-Shammie, he was arrested for rape and he was out on bail

when he decided to go on a stabbing spree. so he was arrested for rape he was out on bail they were still investigating the case i'm just going to go ahead assume that he probably did that too don't you think kane i mean and then they started having protest from people the hamas people the pro hamas people they started having protests which some thought was entirely ridiculously tone deaf and as it was This has caused Netanyahu to send a letter out. He wrote a letter personally to Kier Starrmer saying, look, we've got problems here. The increase in anti-Semitic attacks and the rise in anti-Semitism is a real thing.

And he was, he's really earnestly trying to tell them, look, he got to do something about this. this is getting bad. I'm pulling up a couple of things here. The protesters also protest, they were outside, well, they were not protesters anymore. I'm watching riots outside of Kirstarmer's house. I don't know why they were rioting outside of his house last night, because he recognized, he bent the knee and, you know,

he bent over and spread his cheeks and was like, look, yeah, I totally recognized the Palestinian state. It's exact, whatever else you want me to do, please don't beat me. He already did that. And they still, because it's not ever about that. They just want you dead. It's not about that. Not about that at all.

So they sent this, and the president of Israel, Isaac Herzog, he wrote a letter. So it was Netanyahu that appealed to Starmor. Isaac Herzog wrote a letter to King Charles saying, quote, Britain has become overrun with anti-Jewish hatred. By the way, he sent that letter to him the day before that attack, which I thought was interesting. He was urging King Charles to speak with leaders and candidate in Australia following huge spikes of attacks against the Jewish community. And this again was just days before the attack in Manchester.

He said there's a 316% increase in reporting anti-Semitic incidents in Australia, 58% in the UK since Hamas's terror attack. Well, you can imagine why you have world leaders that are rushing to live. legitimize that means of flexing power by rewarding them with a state. I mean, they're all Jordanians that decided to completely hijack a nickname given by an old dead emperor out of spite after the Second Judean uprising. I mean, it's not an actual real specific ethnicity. They're all Jordanians and nobody will take them back. I mean, there's a reason why. I mean, you kind of have to go and ask yourself, why no one would also accept them. It doesn't make any questions to be asked here. But that, that is kind of wild that that letter was just a couple of days before that the

stabbings, the six-minute stabbing spree took place. It is horrific. And it's not just, and I'll say too, you have a major rise in anti-Semitic attacks. You have people targeting Jewish people. You have, I think a rise, a real rise in anti-Semitism, absolutely. And then you also have Nigeria, where you have Christians that are literally hunted like animals. You have Islamists that invade Christian villages and murder everyone in sight. And then they killed the Christians and then offered them as human sacrifices. And this is a real thing. There's been tons of attacks in Nigeria on Christians. They had about 100 killed in one territory just in the month of June. And it's it's i mean there's the threat is islamism that's the threat and that's why i don't understand

some of these people that talk about uh get like they i made mention of this actually who made mention of this i think it was tommy robinson tomby robinson as you know he's been a big activist against islamism in his home country in britain and he noted look if uh israel falls to the jihadis then we all fall to the jihadis what do you think happens when israel falls. When everyone sits here and they go, oh, can you believe that, you know, Israel, you know, they, they, talking about the weaponry and these partnerships that the, this deal that the United States has in terms of weaponry with Israel, but then they omit the fact that Israel is required by that deal to literally purchase U.S. munitions and U.S. weaponry and U.S. products, which

actually dumps money into our economy and it's a very capitalist setup. They omit that when they have that discussion. Or when they sit here and talk about entities like APEC, they freak out over APEC while completely ignoring the insane amount of money that is specifically given to leftist organizations and universities by Qatar and Islamist countries. They completely forget that. So I have to ask, whose side are some of these people on? Because at this point, realizing that Israel is is fighting against Islamist nations that will kill you and rape your child as the light leaves your eyes in front of you. Murder your wife in front of you. Israel is over there holding down the fort and pushing against that. So these people talk like they want to have that problem here.

And they would rather us send our troops to go deal with it if that ally falls. Because they don't see this strategy because they're morons. They don't see the strategy and fighting, having someone else fight that battle over there instead of us sending our loved ones over there or fighting it here. We're going to talk more about this here coming up as we move. It's our partners, the folks over at Superbeats, energy and really healthy blood flow. That's what it is about with Superbeats.

For a million illegal aliens were receiving Medicaid benefits. They were intended only for U.S. citizens that met the categories I just described. They were gaming the system. They were cheating the system. And what that means is that less resources were available for the people, the Americans who actually needed it most. So we did the common sense thing, the right thing, the just thing, and we put it in the law. And the president

signed that, gladly signed it into law. They want to repeal it. They want to give those resources back to illegal aliens. That's exactly what that highlighted language means. On this exhibit number two over here. I feel like I'm back in court. Exhibit number two, okay? This is, this is this fewer resources, but he's, ah, he's right and wrong because you're losing a lot of the cuts that were suggested by Doge with us. I've never been a fan of the CR. We've gone over this a million times. This is a C. I mean, we do this every seven to ten weeks. We do this every, like every couple months, this happens. joining us right now on this issue. One of our favorite senators, Senator Rand Paul from the great state of Kentucky. He is one of, now you're either going to love it or hate it. He is one of the senators. He was like, no, I'm done with the inability to do math. We are finished with us, and he's been standing against the CR. And he makes a really good point about it with specific reference to Doge and the real cuts that came with Doge. Senator, it's always good to talk with you. Happy Friday. Tell us where you. I know you all are going to vote in the next hour.

Yes, we'll be voting very shortly. This will be the third time around. We've done this three times. But there are two different proposals, a Republican proposal and a Democrat proposal. The Republican proposal, when you add it all up, spending for a year versus a revenue, will lead to a $2 trillion deficit for the next year.

That's about what we had this year. It'll be a little greater next year. I just think that's a non-starter. Now, the Democrats are worse. You know, do you want to choose the less, of too evil or you want to call them both out as evil, the Democrat proposal would add a trillion in spending and be about $3 trillion in debt. But I don't think either one of them are acceptable. And people have been coming up to me that says, is there anything that would convince you to vote

for this? And I'd say, well, yeah, if you cut the $2 trillion in half, then you had a $1 trillion deficit next year, and then a half a trillion the next year and $250 billion, you know, if you did what I've been calling for with the penny plan to balance over five, I'll vote. It doesn't have to be perfectly balanced right now, but it has to be going in the right direction. It can't, you know, who are we? And are there any conservatives left if we're voting for a budget that's going to add more debt next year than we already added this year? It feels like you guys are in a very difficult position, the Senate Republicans. I don't envy the job that you have to do because the way that the narrative is now is that this CR is a great CR when you compare it to anything

looks good when you compare it to what Democrats are putting up. But if you measure it to where we used to be as fiscal conservatives. We'd be out in the streets rioting over this like 10 years ago with the Tea Party. I mean, it just, but we accepted as fate of complete now. Yeah, traditionally, over really the last couple of decades, spending bills in Washington were passed by Democrats plus big government Republicans. And there was always a contingent in the House and the Senate who were conservatives who opposed raising the debt ceiling, who opposed the CRs and the omnibus and all the deficit spending. And so we were that voice,

we were that movement for conservatives who want smaller constitutional government. But now they've all sort of disappeared. The real irony of the bill we have in front of us is this is the exact same Biden spending levels we voted on in December of last year. The CR is a continuation of Biden spending levels from December 2024.

There were a handful of conservatives voted no then. Many of them are voting. now. But the real irony is every Democrat in the Senate voted for the Biden's spending levels of December of last year. And now they're all voting against the exact same spending levels just because they want something else that's not in the CR. That's these subsidies for health care. And to that point, I read a piece this morning, Wall Street Journal. And it, I mean, it seems like this is something, a leak that came from the White House, obviously to use to their advantage in these negotiations. And this kind of gave a little bit of muscle to what Senator Thune was saying,

that, oh, well, maybe we'll consider talking to Democrats about these Obamacare subsidies and the, you know, the extension, et cetera, as though that was going to, you know, I guess be the carrot to get them to come back to negotiate. But I also know that Republicans would get dinged from that too if they don't continue it, even though we all agree it's a train wreck. I mean, this is the problem. I mean, they've created a no-win situation because you have horrible, Obamacare's awful. We're talking about extending it. And if Republicans don't, they're going to get hit. If they extend it, conservatives are going to get upset. I mean, I feel for you. Well, I think that is the end of the shutdown. The Democrats come around and they are going to say

that we were given the assurance that there'll be a negotiation. They will negotiate it over two months. And yes, the Democrats will probably get the Obamacare subsidies over my vote. And over my stringent, you know, opposition. But people have to realize, and it's presented in a way that people don't get a chance to think through this. They're saying, well, free health care, why can't you be for free health care? Don't you like poor people? Don't you want to help poor people?

But people have to realize that when you borrow the money that you give to poor people for health care, it raises the price of their groceries when they go to the grocery store. And so most poor people never escape this cycle. It's a bait and switch. It's here's something for nothing. thing that sounds really good. I know you'll love it and you won't cost you anything, but then they never get out of poverty because the prices keep rising. And so even their welfare doesn't keep up with the prices, but particularly for the working poor, if you make $40,000 a year and you're

married and have two kids, that's not a lot of money. But you know what? Your income is not rising as fast as the inflation in the grocery store. So you are being squeezed if you are a working class person and the bibles they offer you are actually making the situation worse. So it's a difficult argument because they're offering something for free and it's, you know, they're Santa Claus and we're trying to argue that opportunity and capitalism will create a greater wealth and you will do better if we just have a limited government that keeps the law and doesn't offer free stuff, but it's a more difficult argument. And we're talking with Senator Rand Paul for those just joining us. And Senator, Because this is going to come up again, no matter how the vote goes today, or even if it's, you know, extended for another week or so with the shutdown.

But you all are going to be back negotiating this again just in another handful of weeks. And if we're giving up on the subsidies and tax credits and all this stuff now, what will there be left to negotiate? I guess what, December is when it comes back up? Yeah. So I think you can expect capitulation. That's what typically happens in Washington. The big government Republicans will make some deal with the Democrats ultimately. But also there's a great deal of disappointment in the sense that we're voting on a CR that has 20, 25 levels of spending for everything, including foreign aid.

So I cheered on Doge. I cheered on anybody who wanted to reduce foreign aid. I voted for the rescission package to take about $12 billion out of foreign aid. But the spending account has about $40 billion each year. And if we take 12 from that, that would only be $28 billion. But what we're voting on now is 20, 25 levels. We are actually voting to continue spending money at the rate that Biden was spending the money, including the foreign aid. So watch carefully, because in the next month or two, as these spending bills ripen,

it's either going to be an omnibus or a CR, ask carefully, is the foreign aid that we fought against, the sex change surgery in Guatemala, the LGBTQ trans, trans, operas in Ecuador and all that stuff, is all that stuff back in and do we have to have the same fight again next year to try to have another rescission package? Now, I'm willing to fight again next year, but watch who the Republicans are that put the spending bill together and see if four and eight is still in there or if they've reduced it. My guess is four and a will be at least what it was last year or greater, and that's where the real rub is. This is where we fight these battles and then our own party capitulates. I wanted to ask you as well, Sunday.

are the cuts that are expected from Russ Vaught, for those who don't know, that's Office of Management and Budget. The cuts to the federal government, I mean, I like, anytime I hear a reduction of federal government, I get excited about that. What is your take on this on Russ Vaught and his approach? You know, I wish him well,

and I think the court has been ruling in favor of the president having a great deal of power over hiring and firing. Most of these cases the president is winning. So, yes, Godspeed, I say, make government smaller, do what you can. Ultimately, though, Congress has to weigh in, and if you want government to be smaller, government has to prove, and Congress has to approve lower spending levels. So I'm all for a rest vote doing what he can. I'm all for the president doing what he can.

But realize this battle isn't over, we have to have better Republicans in Congress because at least a third of Republicans will probably vote for the Obama. Obamacare subsidies. At least a third of Republicans want all the foreign aid money back in. So we really, the public needs to be to watch this and there needs to be sufficient outrage. If the foreign aid money goes back in the budget and that's what the spending deal involves, we need to have outrage across the land and the big government Republicans need to feel it. What last question for you? And for those who haven't gotten Senator Paul's book, the great COVID cover up, this just dovetails right into it because we went from having

someone like Dr. Fauci, Dr. Burke, staying in front of the nation, and unleash chaos. And now we have Make America Healthy again. And I wanted to get your thoughts on the progress that you've seen. And do you ultimately think that that is going to result in any kind of accountability with Big Pharma? I think Bobby Kennedy is doing a good job over there. I think the president trying to negotiate lower rates for taxpayer-paid pharmaceuticals is a good idea. I think the biggest, thing you could do with government money to try to have healthier people in our country is there's no reason the taxpayer should buy crappy food. There's no reason the taxpayer should buy sugared soda. There's no reason the taxpayer should buy twinkies, ding-dongs, donuts, chips. All

of the stuff that, you know, all of us probably eat on occasion is fine, but the taxpayers should not be funding it because we have an obesity problem. Most of our health problems that are curable and fixable. Diabetes are fixable with weight loss. So we need to really be working hard at getting the taxpayer away from funding things. I know Kennedy is in favor of this. I've been trying to pass it as legislation. But shockingly, I know this will shock you.

I have not found one Democrat who will agree that food stamps should be limited to healthy food and not crummy food. And that's the thing that they always campaign on. They talk about food deserts in the city. And then they can't even put their name to your bill. I mean, I'm astonished, but then also not really. I hope that Bill actually gains some traction. I'd like to see that.

Senator Rand Paul, the book, The Great COVID Cover Up, always a pleasure, Senator. Thanks for taking the fight, being consistent in the fight. We appreciate you. Thank you.

This is an actual story. I'm not even I think it is. No, this is real. A 42-year-old man sparked chaos at the county jail. He stormed in shirtless holding a live alligator. And he said his gator had passed the bar.

By the way, he was booked in with Bonsett at 7,000. The gator was safely released back into the wild. But the deputies did have to wrestle him down because he did try to climb over the desk with the gator. They did confiscate the gator. He said the alligator was his attorney, but the alligator's not licensed and is not able to practice law because it's an alligator, huh? He says he passed the bar. So a friend of mine said, that's what you call a litigator.

So bad. That's so bad. We're all just got shaken baby syndrome from that. So bad. I really don't want to read this story, Kane, the people's story. I don't blame you. I don't. I don't. I don't. don't want to click on the link because I don't want to see any of it. Did the, did the dog make it, Kane? No, I'm not clicking it. From what I hear he did. Is he okay? Is he going to be okay? I think so, but that was what I read last night. I don't know if there's any updates. You can give me the guy's name because I'm not clicking this link. You know how I am with dogs. So a protective pit bull jumped in to shield a 15-year-old girl from a Florida man who then turned around and hurled the dog off a balcony.

Second floor balcony. Okay, second floor. Maybe he can survive it. I personally volunteer. I will pay to do this. Give me 30 seconds at a locker room with him. Pinellas County Sheriff's Office said the dog is expected to survive. So that's what the story says. But yeah, I still say death penalty.

I am all in donating to the commissioner of any, if there's any kind of prison justice that takes place. against this feller. Yes. You guys know. I mean, I'm sure somebody needs snacks and cigarettes. Extra snickers. Yeah, extra snickers, cigarettes, whatever you all need.

You know, just saying. Let's see. Oh, my gosh. A Florida man bought a 2025 land rover defender and then his gas tank exploded on the interstate. The woman said her husband's defender caught fire. Wow. It was a terrifying incident. Now he said he's never going to buy a land rover again.

It was a viral video, half a million views. And they, it brand new, driving down to Florida interstate and it shows it engulfed in smoke and flames, fire consuming the sides, the undercarriage. You know, he has to get out and it explodes. That's kind of crazy. She said the first, the tire blue and then the gas tank exploded. And then the whole vehicle was consumed by fire like within a minute. So local, the dealership offered to find them another defender, but they said, no, that's never happening. They apparently have a history of fire-related recalls. So in 2023, they were called a one. a single one for a fire hazard. But then there was another issue that had to do with oil leaking into the exhaust manifold and others. And then Jaguar Land Rover had a huge recall last year affecting over 2,000 vehicles across six different SUV lines, including the defender that's from Motor Authority. And that involved the oil filter housings that could leak oil at really high pressure into the engine bay, and that creates a fire risk. So they've had some issues. So they, that's kind of scary. Let's see. where do I want to do?

Oh, no, Dollar Tree. Oh, why is the Dollar Tree? Why is the Grody Dude from Dollar Tree in here twice? Because you really want me to read this story. Mell-Borne, Florida.

The Trump administration will start firing workers instead of furlowing them and you think it might target workers in blue states. I do. I do. I think it goes back to this question, Tom, that it appears like they're trying to do that. The disruption is there. The willingness of the Speaker, the House to Blayton, I have seen every, I have seen Fox News even correct this issue that trying to tell the public we're in a massive misinformation campaign.

The president himself tweeting out AI videos of fake news reports on health care. This is really dangerous and it's really hard. expressed to you the concern and the absolute bafflemus and fear of our European allies asking me, is this stuff really trying on. Oh my gosh. Okay, I can't. I was trying so hard. No one believes that European leaders are going, oh, we read, we must call Tim Walls. Let's get, let's get Tim Wolfe, the friend of school shooters on the phone. Remember, he said that. Do you honestly believe that that's happening? Oh, hello, Tim Walls, the AI videos that are clearly AI is scaring me. wee we

we it's not happening no one believes you no one believes that at all welcome back to the program Dana Lash with you we're at the top of this third hour on a frie and no one I think the videos are funny but no one

believes that does he actually think they're real wait hold up this changes flavor if he thinks they're real does he? I mean it's Tim Walls he skips first off these years European leaders that are triggered or even question the AI videos? I don't

want them to be allies. I don't want a stupid ally. They could accidentally hit the wrong button. My allies have standards. Exactly. I don't want morons as allies. How about that? No, he's the guy with jazz hands. Oh, speaking of hands guys, I looked this up because I did not believe it.

I did not believe this to be true and it is. So Amazon has been removing firearms from the thumbnail images of certain movies, particularly James Bond. James Bond films have arrived today on Amazon and everybody knows there's something strange about them. See, what's strange about these? Why are their hands so weird looking? look at how weird are can you one could you perchance zoom in on the Sean Connery one or the Pierce brasen one of the two some are worse than others so you can find all of the James Bond and I like

James Bond movies now on Amazon but there's something missing what a weird looking hand that's because they took the gun out of it. They digitally removed all the guns from the James Bond films and now they all have wank hands. You heard me? I said what I said. It's weird looking.

All of them do. And they all have a, it's just weird which makes their facial expressions even otter. Especially Sean Conneries and Pierce Brosnan's like, yeah, what? And Sean Conneries is like, yeah, and? It's just very

odd. They edited all of the James Bond guns out of the posters because usually it features them and they're always holding a weapon. But now they're not. So like Dr. No, he's just there with Winkhand. I don't know how else to put it. I'm not Dorothe Explorer. Don't have me babysit your kids. This is the dumbest thing I've ever seen in my life. So wait a minute. You're telling me that someone in their bid to watch a guy go and murder

gruesomely all the baddies, they're going to be upset over the image of a gun in the little avatar on the screen, the selection screen on Amazon. Uh-huh. Did Tim Wals come up with this rule? Is this a Tim Walsh thing? They've always featured the leading actor holding a gun. And now they're on Prime Video and now they're not

now they don't have the guns anymore. It is the dumbest thing I've actually ever seen. It's so bad. This is so dumb. I, um, what's your license for? I just, they all look gay now. They all look like a bunch of gay dudes. I'm saying, I'm actually not sorry. They all look like a bunch of gay dudes. This is so dumb. I thought this, this, I thought it was a joke and I looked it up and it is true. It is a true thing. If you go on Amazon Prime and you're looking at the James Bond, they all look like, well, I said what I said. I, this is so, this is, I can't, can you get anything to add? Why God's name would I? Why would I? Not at all.

I mean, at least give them a canole to hold or something, you know. Give some, give one of them a tennis, an ice. cream cone, something. Yeah, that's better than the canoley, I think. I mean, it's better than just a bunch of these posters where they're just so bad. It's so bad.

Why do this to James Bond? Why would they do this? So all of them are, are, I don't. So did they get rid of them in the movie too? Like, are they just, just the thumbnail, huh? He's going to nag you to death. That's what's going to happen.

I don't. I can't. I can't. Yeah, Steve. Well, what are they trying to prevent is my question? If you're already watching the movie, it's in the movie. So, like, isn't the thumbnail to get you into the movie? It seems like they're doing like a reverse type of thing here. These aren't brand new movies either. Yeah, I don't actually know.

That's a great question. Are they going to, he's just going to just be shooting air at them? I don't know. I'm very confused by all of this. It makes me thinking of that Godfather's seeing, look how they massacred my boy. That's what I'm thinking of right now. Oh my gosh. This is so bad. Oh my gosh. What are they going to do with like never, never say never like that one where he's pointing like right like were they going to do that? What are they going to do? This is so bad. Oh my gosh. Can you just stop with the bonds? Stop messing with them. And Steve brings up a good point. Are you going to be watching the movie? Go, oh. I wasn't, I didn't think there was going to be a gun in the James Bond movie. I thought he was just going to nag the baddies to death.

I don't know. Shaken, not stirred. A whole new meaning. So I could go on. You did say the damn wankies. I did. And on X, you did do that. I did.

Okay. I mean, he's a spy. And he uses lethal force to kill bad dudes. So you wait. Do you think it's insensitive to have the gun? But then the killing's totally sensible. What are the thought Olympics that go through the head of the people who are like, oh yeah, got to take the gun out.

That's just senseless. But the killing about that's in the movie is totally sensible. It doesn't make any sense to me. These people are so stupid. Oh, my gosh. What's happening? So that's what's happening with the James Bond stuff. Okay, go ahead and give me this Theo Vaughn thing.

What is happening with Theo Vaughn? This is audio sound. Geez. Audio sound by 23, s'l-v-v-l-please. I would never take my own life. I would never take my own life. Okay? You hear that Israel? I would never take my own life. Wait, what? I'm grateful to God for His grace in my life.

I love my siblings. Is Israel trying to get him or something? I have so many friends and people that, love me and people that I want to see their children grow up? So apparently he's like on the Marjorie Taylor Green, whatever wavelength and all of this stuff

and I don't know. Like I, Lorraine was saying that he has been like weaning himself off of his antidepressants. But I could, Steve and I couldn't figure out if he was trolling or trying to make a joke. But it seems like I guess he feels like

he's got to bend the knee and be like, Israel. I don't know. That seems to be the vibe, Kane. I think that there's a narrative of, you know, people that he listens to and that he's interacted with about somehow Israel being behind taking out Charlie Kirk. And I think he is, you know, he's just kind of buying into that. And he mentions it in passing.

He's buying into a conspiracy theory created by a bunch of grifters who just need to hop to one outrage lily pad and from the next outrage lily pad so that they can keep up the momentum. That's all it is. Accurate. I mean, the fact that you have to have turning point actually release statements during a time when they're grieving. I mean, these are people who were with him every day and worked with him and know him to try to kick off some of these

grifters who he hadn't even talked to in a year. It's so stupid. And notice how they're all saying this without receipts. All these people are running their mouths and they don't have a single receipt. So I'm just, this is what I don't get from the left. They sit here and the left right. I call them the woke right because these are all the people that make

idols out of race. And I just think and ethnicity and sex and all that. I think when you do that, those are, those are, that's literally, that's a Marxist theory and practice. That's, that's part of CRT, critical race theory, whether they are smart enough to recognize it or not. That's like the Derek Bell School of CRT. And he's the guy who first,

I've been writing about this for 20 years. He's the guy who first introduced this to universities across the country. Well, maybe 15, not 20. But the point of this is I don't, they feel like they've got, it's like bend the knee. And to say all this stuff, especially like about, you know, Charlie and all of that, it's just a horrific posthumous hijacking. People are trying to like pick apart his legacy and use the crumbs to inflate themselves. There's no other better way to put it.

I just don't, these are all the same people that bitch and moan about A-PAC. and that's the American Israel Confab. They complain about APAC, but then they are quite as church mice when it comes to Qatari money coming into the country to the tune of billions upon billions upon billions of dollars. It's a serious problem. And, of course, interestingly enough, the universities, and we've talked about this quite at length, the universities that receive the most funding from Qatar are the ones where you get all of this kickoffs over anti-Semitism and Jewish students. that can't even walk into the building to go to class. I mean, we've seen like two years of this now.

I feel like that's a fair question. I get that some people, they're on this, like, anti-Israel kick. I think some people do it because they're actual anti-Semites and they just don't like Jewish people. I think some people do it because they think it's cool to be contrarian and they really don't know what the hell is going on over there. I think other people to do it because everybody's so terribly desperately trying to emulate Joe Rogan that they want to be considered experts in an area.

they want to be considered experts in an industry in which they don't actually have the depth in that particular of that particular issue to be considered an expert on it or to even talk knowledgeably about it. I think it's a lot of it. The people that genuinely criticize whether the way that the government has responded or, you know, et cetera, I think that there's a difference between that and everything else that I've said. But I feel like people like Theo Vaughn, can you tell me the difference between Benjamin's, Netanyahu and Isaac Herzog? Can you tell me what Isaac Herzog does?

No, none of these people can even talk about how the Israeli government is even structured. They can't even tell you what policies have been passed since October 7th in terms of Israeli security. They have no idea what the hell they're talking about. Here's the issue. Do you honestly think that these Islamist countries whose asses you all kiss are going to be nicer to you

than anybody else over there? You're so busy trying to lie prostrate before these Islamist nations for what? What is the purpose? Do you realize, and I agree with Tommy Robinson, when you have Israel falls to jihadism, everybody's going to fall to jihadism.

Is it better to have an ally over in the Middle East to take care of some of this stuff so that we don't have to send our loved ones to do it and expend more resources to do it? Or would you rather us just have to all do it ourselves over there and here? It's a strategy that is realistic in the realistic world in which we live. I would love to be high as a kite to some of these jokers and buy into the kittens and sunshine BS that we don't have to do any of this stuff.

But guess what? We don't get to control all of the variables. It just blows the mind. Our partners that help bring you the program, it's our friends over at Patriot Mobile.

What? These firefighters did it intentionally, apparently. Why? I don't know, but it caused a lot of damage and they got charges for it. Over three minutes, $1,000 in damage, and they had to cancel games. And why did it? firefighters that did it. So now everyone's like, should they go to jail? Should they just be fine? They should be fine? Yes, but should they go to jail? This seems pretty serious.

Tacoma police seized 89 pounds of meth. That's a lot of meth. That's, yeah. And in addition to that, they also had 166 grams of fentanyl, 33 grams of heroin, 410 grams of cocaine. That's a lot of charges. They said it was one of the biggest narcotics seizures in their department's history. crazy. Trust in media is at a new low, 28%. That's not really a shocker. Definitely, not a shocker. I don't think what maybe diseases have a lower. Yeah, exactly. And let's see, that's, that's, yeah, we'll stop there because we got more in store.

And when you need 60 votes, the point of that is bipartisanship, negotiation. All right, you need eight Democratic votes. Okay, how do we work together to keep the government open? Republicans for the first time in modern history have chosen not to negotiate. So Bernie Sanders is saying that for the first time, ever, Republicans aren't willing to negotiate. I don't know why he's saying that because this is a bill that they voted on for a million different times already. They voted on this bill so often. It's ridiculous. It's just the CR that they voted on when Biden was in office. I mean, it's literally the exact same levels of spending under as under the previous administration. So, and then the House already, the House already passed it. They don't have anything to,

with which to negotiate. That's pretty much it. So I don't know what he's talking about. So goopy. This is so ridiculous. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. Chats at Rumble.

Channel 347. Direct TV is the stream. So I want to switch gears here. There's a couple of things. Where do I even? Where do I want to start? I didn't get, there's some things I didn't get all the way through. Okay, let me touch on this one real quick.

And then we're going to talk about Portland here coming up. New York Times, this came out just a little bit ago, well, this morning. Here's the headline. Ma'am Donnie says he would phase out New York City's gifted program for early grades. He wants to get rid of the gifted program in public schools. Can we feel about that? You're thoughtful, Kane. Well, I mean, that seems to be one of the very few actual useful programs in public school.

So, yeah, not good. not good. He says that if he's elected, he's going to replace the program. He says it's a symbol of segregation in the schools. It's a bigoted. He says it's just gifted classes, gifted programs. They're just, can you can type whatever you want. It's just they're just bigoted.

It's just, it's about segregation. Because apparently, I guess he says that he doesn't believe that minority students are smart enough. Oh, my God. It's super racist, number one. Number two, when my kids were going to school, they were, they essentially looked up to being able to get into the gifted program, right? Like they worked towards that goal because they saw the benefit and what these kids were able to engage in and the type of learning that these kids were having.

It actually inspired other students to be better. So I don't understand why you're, it's like our progressive tax system. They penalize you for being better or earning. more, and it's the same here. Why would you take away those who could perform, outperform what public school offers? Why would you take that away? It's a million dollar question, million dollar question. The problem, and I think you just highlighted something that's, that's incredibly important in terms of the reward that you get as a student when you get into some of these programs. And there are kids that these programs really serve. There isn't a one-size-fits-all

learning approach. There really isn't. And the idea that you, he thinks that it represents some sort of inequality, well, merit isn't equal. You're never going to be able to erase the human condition. You're never going to be able to legislate away free will. ever. I mean, you can even pass laws about it, but people still choose to enact their free will, even in ways that are felonious. So this thought that it somehow promotes division, or you would rather punish the students who are capable and maybe need more invigorating work at the expense of those who don't, or at their expense just to accommodate those students, those students who do not.

It's just, it's so punitive. And it sounds jealous. It sounds jealous. It sounds like he's jealous of gifted students. And he wants to take that program away from them because how dare they have that as an option? How dare they? Those kids. I was in, I did the gifted program when I was in elementary school.

And there were certain points in my class. when I would have to leave my class and go to a different classroom where there were fewer students and we did different work. And I always felt like I had more work to take home and I actually was mad about it because I thought I want to be able to do this. This looks more, this looks like it's funner what's happening in my classroom. It really did. Funner.

It's more fun, funest. But there were students that had actually brought. benefits because I could be quite disruptive if I get bored. So when I'm one of those, I'm that student. I can get, I'll get all my stuff done and then I'll get really disruptive. I need more to do. I have to, and it can't just be busy work. Like I need to, you know, and there are kids out there that are like that. And that's not a bad thing. And there are kids out there that are not like that. And that's not a bad thing. It's not a bad thing to not be in the gifted program. And it's not a bad thing to be in the gifted program. The division that he is introducing is in how he presents it.

He's immediately presenting it as it is something that is disenfranchising and that you are somehow being excluded. You are being wronged because you're not part of this program. That is one of the most uneducated ways to view this that I could ever possibly imagine. And I feel like anybody who approaches education with that perspective should probably be barred legally from being able to make determinations about children's education. That's just a horrifically dangerous thing to present that as such. Good heavens. Let's look at Portland. They arrested an independent journalist Nick Sortor yesterday. He was just literally there. This is, sorry, what's somebody? Yeah, last night in Portland. What's somebody was this?

cut, uh, I just pay, I keep passing it. But he was arrested in Portland. He was attacked. That's why he was arrested. He was there covering the riots in Portland. And then what ended up happening is they started attacking him and he defended himself. And they arrested him because he defended himself. So this is a picture.

And there's video of him being attacked and all of that. There's a lot of cussing in it. this is one of the videos this is the arrest that's the arrest that you're watching cut 21 yeah this is 21 so he was this this the ice facility that's up there in portland you know you have a bunch of leftists that are outside and they've been rioting and all of this so he was covering it he's again independent journalist and he licenses his footage out they got surrounded by anti-ice rioters, and he was getting verbally threatened. He even posted last night that he felt like he could not defend himself because they would arrest him, which is true. And apparently

Antifa jumped him, and he was just an independent journalist, and he had to defend himself so they didn't bash his head in. And they arrested him. They arrested him. and not the people attacking him. Hey, what is that the left says when they call Trump the authoritarian? Right. Dictator? So you can't even defend yourself from a bunch of Marxist knobs in Portland when they riot and attack you.

They're not strong enough to defend themselves, the Antifa and the anti-ice people, so they need their police force to help. And Portland police is more than, happy to support Antifa for some reason. It doesn't make sense to me, but that's what we've seen for the last couple years. I mean, goodness. So they

and he sent out, by the way, he was one of the guys who sent out Starlinked to all of like Western North Carolina when they had the flooding and all of that. He's like been around the country. They charged him so they attacked him and then they, the way

that they try to reframe this is they're like, oh well, we set a flag on fire and he put it out. They set a flag on fire like right by him on purpose with the hopes of catching him on fire. And he put the fire out. And they charged him with disorderly conduct in second degree because he put the fire out. What? That is absolutely insane. And then they they assaulted him, knocked him into a flower bed.

And I just, all of that. he was doing, what ended up happening when, and this was from Bill Malugin, I think, had said this. Let me pull this up. Bill Malugin had tweeted, because he spoke to him on the phone after he got released from custody. And he said he was only, they're shooting video footage. And then the federal agents maced the Antifa rioters because they were getting violent and they were starting to destroy property. And then they got maced. And some of them started crying. And it was all in the video footage. And then they got mad at Sortor because he was there recording it. And they didn't like the fact that he had caught it on video that they were bawling after they had gotten

maced. And they came after him and attacked him. He wasn't, he's not like the leftists who get out there and pretend to be journalists. And then they take part in the riots. Or like the journalists that pretended they were covering everything on October 7th, but then they literally were on the backs of Hamas's bikes and celebrating with him after. Yeah, there's a lot of video and photographic evidence of that. He was just there getting footage of these Antifa writers getting maced and they were crying and then they attacked him. And then he gets arrested. That's, where are all of the free speech purists? We're all of the, um, the, uh, individuals who cry about

the sacredness of the press. The free press is so sacred. Where are they at with us?

I am against the death penalty in all cases. Well, I think it's... In all cases. And that's why I find there is a hypocrisy with certain Christians who are pro-life, but they will pull that electric chair switch. They are pro-life, but they have their AR-15s in their cabinet. They are pro-life, but they don't mind immigrants families being torn from each other. They are pro-life, but they don't care about little children's subsidies being taken away from them. That is not pro-life.

I was just going to say, I'm Protestant. Wait, she says that she's against the death penalty in all cases, but yet she endorses abortion. What do you think that is? It's so dumb. It's so dumb. She mentions firearm ownership. Firearms save more lives than they are actually taken in felonious hands. Defense of gun usage is greater than that by every measured statistic, even under Obama era, even under Biden era, than the criminal usage.

So she doesn't even know what she's talking about here. If she was pro-life, she would be for Second Amendment. She would be for the Second Amendment. She would be for firearm ownership. If she was actually, you know, against the death penalty, she would be legitimately pro-life. But she's not. So that's really tricky there. How tricky.

How interesting. Wow. She's not the brightest bulb in that box, that horrible, ridiculous box. I just, who watches that show? Who watches that show? I don't understand the appeal. or the audience. Who watches it, Kane? Other mentally ill shrews?

I just don't see how it is an attractive program to watch. I don't know. Maybe only like New Yorker, like rich New York Marxist women. Watch it. That's the only thing I can think of. Because I don't know in what way it's considered, you know, it's an attractive show. Or it's appealing in any way with content or other. wise. It just none of it makes sense. So I don't know. We'll see. But it's just so stupid. I just get so

bored with it. I don't even think when it first launched, that was when Barbara Walters, Barbara Walters left 2020. Didn't she do the view? And then everybody watched it at first. And then it started kind of going downhill. And now I just don't, I don't even think that it's relevant. They don't, they bicker over everything. And they're, pop culture stuff is miles wide and inches deep. It used to be a show that was more about pop culture than just politics, and that's shifted even. But these are like women who clearly do not have their finger on the polls of pop culture.

So I don't even know. That doesn't, yeah, it just doesn't make it. It's like Jimmy Kimmel. Like, why even keep him on? His ratings are so abysmal. Now they got it. Now, how bad does that look? Now they're stuck with him forever.

They are stuck with that. Titanic forever. They can't get rid of him now because he'll go, my free speech. And then it's just ridiculous. literally every day they're flushing money down the toilet. I'm for that. If they want to bankrupt themselves, if they have to pay that indulgence so their leftist rage mob doesn't come after them, I'm okay with that.

I think it's fine. They can go ahead and do it. But the rest of us don't, the rest of us aren't going to. And he's, I don't even think that, notice how he's not even making headlines. He made 48 hours and that was that. That's how long that cycle lasted. 48 hours. Nobody cared after that. Even fewer care. We don't even, like, we don't even have any clips. I don't even have any clips of audio because he doesn't say anything that's, like,

worth it. It's so sad. Couldn't happen to a better person, you know. Couldn't have happened. Just tell you what.

In the meantime, today in stupidity. All right. It is Don Lemon. He's your favorite. Every day he qualifies, but we just sometimes don't get to it. But today we are. able to. One cut 15. Apparently the greatest threat to political violence is white men radicalized to the right. Listen to it. And what is it when they say a hit dog will holler? And that's why I say

Megan Kelly and Glenn Greenwald, they don't want to talk about political violence. What? Because if they did, they do. They would have to face the truth. They talk about it in the context of truth. The greatest threat of political violence in America today is white men radicalized to the right. That is fact. Who killed Charlie Kirk? In case you're wondering, Don Lemon is still always wrong and always hateful. So there's your update on Don Lemon.
