Starting point is 00:00:00 Military bases have seen these drones fly over them. That's a federal offense. If there ever were justification to shoot a drone down, that would be it. Why hasn't it happened? Well, because, look, first of all, Bill, the military commanders at installations have the authorities they need to defend themselves, their people, their interests, and certainly to protect our secrets and our national security. Sometimes the answer is to find a way to down a drone, and sometimes the answer is not. And a lot of it depends on the capability that the base commander has available to him or to her,
Starting point is 00:00:37 but they have the authorities that they need. The sense that you have to shoot everything down just when you see it, even if you do believe that there's a malicious intent, doesn't comport with actual reality. So, I mean, it really depends on the situation at hand. But rest assured, commanders have the authorities that they need to take the action that they must to protect their facilities. Where did you do you? Mr. President.
Starting point is 00:01:00 Thank you. Good to see you. Good to see you. Can you comment on the drones that are flying around New Jersey and ports? It seems like the American people have a big discipline. The government knows what is happening. Look, our military knows where they took off from. If it's a garage, they can go right into that garage.
Starting point is 00:01:21 They know where it came from and where it went. And for some reason, they don't want to comment. On the way here, I was on the phone with my OEM team. And we now have guidance coming from the state. And that guidance does say two different things. First of all, if there is a downed drone in our vicinity, we are immediately to call the bomb squad of our county. And second, our fire department has been instructed
Starting point is 00:01:43 to make sure they wear hazmat suits. So if something falls out of the sky that people have seen, and some of these things are as big as an SUV, if that happens, you're to treat this more in a plane crash. It's treated like an attack on the homeland. That is correct, because they're not quite sure if there's a payload or not. So they're saying that what? It could be like nuclear material that's been lost, and so they're out there trying to find it. Is that, that seems to be the general gist of it. So then my question is this. God help us, how do you lose nuclear material?
Starting point is 00:02:24 I mean, it's at the end of the year. We've all been through. hell. Can we just, you know, have someone in the government not be such a dumbass that it makes me want to deconstruct the whole damn entirety of D.C. brick by brick? Are you sure? Not possible. Jeez. I just, I was reading it because I didn't quite understand how you would be able to find nuclear material. You know, like it's, you know, doesn't light up like light bright, I guess. Maybe it does. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:55 Well, I, yeah. And I, I was. looking at some of this, reading some of the explanations for it, and it was kind of interesting. But again, none of it answered my question of so how, because it's like a, the word is that it was like an entire train car of something, right? This is like a X-Files movie.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Welcome to the show. Dana Lash with you, top of the first hour. Make sure you send up its substack. Lots of good stuff that happens there. But to come back to the drone thing, because you guys know, I've been fascinated by this from the get-go. I really do wonder, because Kane, what does like railways and transporting that stuff, what department does that fall under?
Starting point is 00:03:41 Oh, that would be transportation. The Department of Transportation. Thank you. Who is the head of the Department of Transportation? I'm sure he's an illustrious person. Yes, that is. It's a big job, I'm sure. Peter Booty Juice.
Starting point is 00:03:56 Mr. Put or Booty Juice. Yes. Yes. Yes. Him. Okay. New Mom. Is he on maternity leave still?
Starting point is 00:04:02 No, I think he's recently off maternity leave. Now, I want you to, one more question, if you don't mind. I want you to tell me who is it that's in charge or was. I don't think he is anymore. But he was in charge of the nuclear waste materials. He was like a deputy nuclear guy. Had a fondness for ladies' suitcases. Are you talking about Sam?
Starting point is 00:04:25 Yes. Thank you, sir. Him. So these are the people that we've had running these two entities. Sam Brinton or Britain or what was his name was? I don't know what the hell his name was. He was just like a freak. I don't know who, I don't know what his name was and I don't care.
Starting point is 00:04:42 He was the freak that stole ladies' luggage and their clothes and all this stuff. So I, these are the people that our current president, has put in charge of these departs. So is it shocking? Now that I put it like that, answer me, if you think it's shocking that something like this would happen. See, now I put it in perspective.
Starting point is 00:05:09 That makes it all better, doesn't it? No, it doesn't. I know, it doesn't make it all better at all. I get you completely understand. All right, so welcome to the show. So this is one of the things that we're watching today. The other couple of, I mean, it's just a weird, I mean, everybody's, look,
Starting point is 00:05:23 half of you were already home drunk. You guys are bacon. you got a little carried away. You know, maybe you're making some. I had a family member that would make brandy Christmas truffles. Maybe you're doing one of those things, and you used a little too much or had a little too much for you. Maybe you're just not at work.
Starting point is 00:05:37 Maybe you're at work, and it's like the Clark Griswold. It's like the scene of National Ampoon's family vacation where he's like the last guy there and all the presents are the same and he's stacking it up on the boss's desk. And you're in that stage. You're in that mood. Maybe it's that. But regardless,
Starting point is 00:05:53 it's it's almost Christmas and so we're all sort of you know and this is also too when some of the big stuff I have to say if something was going to drop this would be now would be the time to do it so we've got a number of things we we have more information also about the the shooting that took place yesterday in Wisconsin and as more it was a 15 year old girl I don't like saying their names because the copycat thing is a real that's a real thing the copycat killing is a real thing she apparently this girl was apparently also inspired by Columbine and this is one of the criticisms I have of the press and a lot of other people uh that some of the the leftist talking heads particularly out there because when they start talking about this stuff they they they it's wall to wall coverage of
Starting point is 00:06:49 these of the names of these killers and you know everybody ends up knowing the names and nobody ends up remembering the victims. And it's just, it's wall-to-wall coverage. And that, that kind of, I will never understand it, but that kind of notoriety is very attractive for these types of killers, for these people. I will say, I think it is a little odd that it was a 15-year-old girl. That's a little different. But everything else isn't odd, especially when you look at how she's, she, you know, apparently offed herself when cops showed up. That's typically the standard is, it's usually not, you know, the cops don't really necessarily,
Starting point is 00:07:33 I mean, what happened in Nashville was kind of rare. It's usually the killers will kill themselves. But the fact that you had a chick who wanted to be trans in Nashville or wanted to be a dude and said she was trans or however you put that in Nashville. And then now you have this female here. a little, it's a odd, it's a little odd that it's a chick, as I said. But, you know, with that, the just, I mean, the stories that are coming out of, the more information it's coming out about this. So you have a 15-year-old and had a handgun that was confirmed. It's illegal for a 15-year-old
Starting point is 00:08:13 to, I know this is not news to you, but it's, it's, it's illegal for a 15-year-old to get a handgun and run around with a handgun. That's, that's, not something that, just got to say, it's not something that you, it's not legal. It's not legal in any state. It's not legal anywhere. The president had issued a statement on it where he called for, let me pull this up, because I sent out a newsletter about this last night after it happened. He issued a statement saying that he wants to ban assault weapons. He wants to establish a universal background check. looking at his letter. He wants to also have a limitation on magazine capacity, what he calls
Starting point is 00:08:59 high capacity, whatever that means. Now, it's a smart move from a guy who literally just pardoned his son for a whole bunch of crimes, including falsifying information on his 4473 for a gun that was purchased, again, illegally by his son. And then his daughter-in-law slash son's girlfriend disposed of it, tossed it in a trash can, legit across the street from a school. Real smart move from a guy who did that. But I'm curious as to why he's calling for all these things, none of which would have had any impact at all whatsoever. He calls for, he reinstated his call for an assault weapons ban, a stupid made up word when it was a handgun that was used. It wasn't a rifle. He established for, he demanded universal background checks, which you can't have a
Starting point is 00:09:49 universal background check unless you have the establishment of a national registry. We talked about that before. And he assumes that this 15-year-old, I guess, walked into a gun store and that an FFL actually sold her a gun. That's the only way that that makes sense. I mean, he calls for stuff that makes zero sense. And I was asking some people yesterday, well, what would you actually propose? Without exception. Not even one. In the past, maybe there would be like one or two. But there was not even one yesterday. One progressive, and some of them were talking heads that I was going back and forth with. Not a single one of them had any proposals. Their only response was that Republicans wanted more death. That was it. They just wanted a name call about guns. They didn't actually want to
Starting point is 00:10:39 solve anything. They had no, except for ban everything, that was their only solution. As though crime began when the gun was introduced. That's how they act. I mean, that, then that means in the entirety of human history, we've never had any murder. We never had any mass casualty, anything. I mean, that's not true, but that's apparently what these people tell themselves and believe in order to make these stupid arguments. But not a single person had an actual serious proposal. Some of them would just Google every town stuff and act like they weren't copy and paste you know, verbatim. The left, and this has been my history and my experience with all of this, the left has never, ever had any kind of actual solution. None. And they do not want to hear you
Starting point is 00:11:31 when you talk about yours. Like the big debate over hardening schools. Why is this a debate? I made mention of this in the newsletter last night. Why the hell is this a debate? They have long argued against hardening schools because they claim that having extra security is like a prison. I mean, do stadiums feel like prisons? Do jewelry stores feel like prisons? I mean, all of these places have way more security for their activities and their products that they sell than we have for our kids in schools. And are not our kids infinitely more valuable? Apparently, the left doesn't think that real good security doesn't give itself away either. You know, you may incorporate planes closed, plane closed officers. double locking doors, et cetera, and teachers who want to train and carry with permission of parents. But those things are all the last line of defense. All of that stuff is the last line of defense.
Starting point is 00:12:32 A door lock, if it comes down to the door lock, then all of the other layers of defense have failed.

TikTok is asking the Supreme Court to block a law that could ban the app. I do think it's weird that we can't convince people because people are sheep. We can't convince people to stop using TikTok. So we're just going to have the government ban it because we can't we apparently telling them that you're literally being a prostitute for the CCP and having your information harvested by them. That's not enough to appeal to people's common sense, good nature,
Starting point is 00:14:10 or brain power. So we're having to have the Supreme Court. We're begging them to come and block it because people are stupid and asteroid should come and obliterate this rock. Merry Christmas. That's just dumb to me that we do this. Ban everything. We're going to talk about this coming up. Friendship after 50, apparently, I don't care about this headline. I don't really care. Moving on. Blam-a-blah, nobody cares. I don't care. I don't care. Go make friends or don't. Don't bitch about it to me. I don't care. It's like Monday for some reason.
Starting point is 00:14:35 I'm just done. Start putting a startup that puts ammo. Oh, now this one. Ammo vending machines and grocery stores? investigate this. Yes, please. I need to get it. Hang on. Wait, everybody hold up. Pause the show.
Starting point is 00:14:50 I need to make a note of who this is so I can play into it. In France and everything. Okay. Just anyway, back to the headline. Ammo vending machines in grocery stores. There's a startup that plans to grow this and expand it. It's based in Dallas. American rounds rolled its first automated retail ammo.
Starting point is 00:15:09 It's in a grocery store, but it's in Pell City, Alabama. Why are you going to Bama? Why can't you come to do it? that here. All kinds of ammo. That actually is amazing. And then of course, you have people who are like, you have a social responsibility to make it possible, blah, blah, blah. Or no, you don't. Other people do. When I was younger, I had a friend that had a soda machine in his garage, and I thought that was the coolest thing ever. I would love an ammo machine in my garage. Why? I want one in my garage that someone can just come and they serve it. Service it. I love this.
Starting point is 00:15:42 But this idea that companies have a social, no, they don't. Shut up. That's you. That's when people are too lazy. I'm too lazy and stupid to have my own responsibility about society. So I'm going to ask the companies that make products I purchase to do it for me. Shut up. Let's see here. Moving on. Because that's a good one. Species in Chernobyl of fungus is mutating to feed on nuclear radiation. That's actually kind of cool. Maybe we can send that out on the drone since we lost nuclear. I mean, great job, Biden. Great job. You literally have one job. But it's mutating to feed on nuclear radiation.
Starting point is 00:16:21 I feel like this is some kids' crazy science experiment in a way, right? And they're trying to say that X has a declining user base. And that's from Mashable, which is the same, it brings you the same journalistic news and literary value as smearing feces on a dive bar bathroom wall. Same thing. We got a lot more coming up.

Starting point is 00:18:07 We're at the bottom of this first hour. Of course, you know, we were talking just a little bit about the shooting that took place in Wisconsin yesterday and how you have the have the more information coming out about this. And I was talking about it right before we, you know, went into headlines and went to break about the arguing and the debating over hardening schools, right? And I don't know why the left is hell bent against it. I don't, I don't get it. I don't. I don't. I don't get it. I understand why they're so against it. I've made mention of this so many times before in that to, you know, double locking doors to have teachers who want to carry plane clothes officers.
Starting point is 00:18:57 The left thinks that they keep saying that it's like a prison. And I feel like they've never been into a prison if they think that good security is like a prison. They go to stadiums for to watch sports. They go to concert venues. They'll go to jewelry stores. I mean, hell, probably even Starbucks has more. Who knows security? Who knows? But it just seems like every other place, they don't have a problem with it. It doesn't feel like a prison. And that's what you're talking about more of that type of security. Good security isn't always noticeable. But the problem is this. That's just the last line of defense. If the safety of your child is depending upon the last thing, the last gatekeeper, whether or not that door's locked,
Starting point is 00:19:43 there are a lot of other layers that have failed. That's the reality of it. And the first line of defense are the parents. I'm going to tell you something. I am not going to be blamed or have my rights up for forfeit because some parents out there were garbage. Not going to happen. They raised monsters the likes against which we have to arm ourselves
Starting point is 00:20:04 to protect ourselves and our families. So no, that's not a good justification to do. deprive someone of a God-given right. Oh, you got some deadbeat parents that raised a monster. No. It turned out the teenage girl was 15 years old and had this handgun, which 15-year-olds can't go out and buy handguns. And I know the investigation. They're going to look more into it. I've seen reports that said, well, the dad gave it to her, blah, blah, all this stuff. I want to see more things confirmed by law enforcement before we go down that route. But the bottom line is that if you have a 15-year-old under your roof who's obsessed with Columbine and is obsessed with violence and death and is on a downward doom spiral and you don't notice it,
Starting point is 00:20:56 you should be chemically castrated so that you don't procreate and plague the earth with your spawn because you're too stupid to raise children. That's God's honest truth. Every single one of these killers, especially if they were teenagers, there are warning signs that you don't need a destruction of due process in the form of silly ran flang glan. You don't need that in order to act. Just because some people are unfamiliar with the vast number of legal options that exist to them to have someone adjudicated unfit or declared a prohibited possessor in a court of law doesn't mean that those options don't exist. That's what the left wants you to think.
Starting point is 00:21:40 The left are morons. They have no idea about gun law. because they're ignorant of it. They think it doesn't exist. They have no familiarity with object permanence. They're like babies. They think that when you play peek-a-boo, you disappear. They're shocked.
Starting point is 00:21:57 But this 15-year-old, apparently, there was this manifest going around. This manifesto. And apparently, she was a big feminist. And saying, like, the manifesto that was shared said, quote, women are the only hope for this wretched world. But even women have been brand. Washbow my gosh. I can't even read it out loud because it makes me feel like I've drunk the worst alcohol ever and it already gives me a hangover headache. I can't even get through it. It's so bad. She just she talks she says the phrase red Fim Hitler. That helps. She has horrible grammar. If she just, you know, it's spent more time maybe on her grammar instead of her murder fetish. Here's my my question because she's like big time into big time feminist and all this stuff. And she used to
Starting point is 00:22:46 She uses racial slurs in it as well. I'm not going to say what they are, but she uses racial slurs. You know, she's a racist leftist. I mean, you know, this is a day that ends in why. Why? I was reading this and I was, you know, because some of the pictures are floating out there. I was reading this manifesto, thinking of the photos. And I thought, you stupid broad, why can't you just read Sylvia Plath, like every other dumb, mind, brain dead feminist out there?
Starting point is 00:23:14 Why can't you just read Margaret Atwood? You don't have to go shoot up a school. You know what? Here's what you do. Go to Hot Topic and have Daddy buy you some overpriced junco jeans, right? Get you a chain that you attach your wallet that has nothing in it to. Okay? Put on eyeliner badly.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Use manic panic in your hair. And pick up a copy of Sylvia Plath, the gateway for stupid feminists. And pretend that it's mind-breaking or groundbreaking or that depression is angsty and edgy. Get into that. Get into Margaret Atwood and wear a red guy. cape and act like you're suppressed in a country that actually gives the matriarchy more rights than they give men. Go ahead and do all of that and pat yourself on the back for being just the prototypical moron. Instead, she went shot up a school. So I don't,
Starting point is 00:24:02 a 15 year old that's able to do that, this is one of the things that parents, like bad parents, I guess they just allowed for her to get like this. How is that my fault? How is it your fault? You know, we had some of these lawmakers out here. Run in their mouths. Audio Sunday, 12. Gwen Moore. She's saying all this stuff needs to be studied. Listen.
Starting point is 00:24:25 And, you know, my thought is that we don't have a lot of information. And that's why it's really important for us to support efforts that people have made consistently to have the CDC and other private foundations really try to study what the cause of this violence is. You know, we already know that they're, they're. too many guns. You know, a lot of people say it's the mental health or it's video games. We don't know. Yeah, we do.
Starting point is 00:24:54 We do. We absolutely do. You walking mental abortion, we know. We know exactly what it is. Some people, we just don't know. Last week, all you left us were celebrating the public gunning down of a health care CEO.
Starting point is 00:25:16 On CNN, on MSNBC, Washington Post reporters, they thought it was great. It fulfilled one of their narratives about CEOs and big bad insurance companies. He got gun down in the middle of the street in front of a Hilton, no less, in Manhattan.
Starting point is 00:25:32 Right there. I mean, it's just blocks away from their Christmas tree. He got murked in broad, you know, well, early morning life, but broad daylight. They actually had no problem with a gun then. Because it was somebody they didn't like, somebody they couldn't use.
Starting point is 00:25:50 So they were all right about it. You think that kids aren't watching that? When they're watching their adults in their lives or on TV that their parents are watching, celebrate the gunning down to this guy because they just didn't like him fulfilling this stupid progressive narrative. And then they want to turn around literally the next week and then act like guns are bad because a 15-year-old illegally acquired one. What?
Starting point is 00:26:12 Pick a lane. So so asinine. What Gwen Moore is talking about here is the law she's unaware of. it's called the Dickey Amendment. It was passed in the 90s because people wanted to do something to make themselves feel better. They said that we need to be able to study the causes of gun violence. Like, you know, the brain trust that's in D.C. decided that they needed to eat taxpayer dollars to figure out, Kaine, why gangbangers are gangbbinging. They just don't know why people are selling the drugs.
Starting point is 00:26:45 And they wanted to act like there was a separate, like the school shootings or something like that, which are, rare and are the exception, which is why another universal rule, whereas drug and gang violence actually are the rule when it comes to homicides and mass casualty incidents and driving crime, et cetera. They wanted to study why this was. They needed to study it. The Dickey Amendment was drafted and passed to state that, sure, you can study homicide. You can study factors like mental health. You can study all this stuff. But what you can't do is you, you, taxpayers to either advocate
Starting point is 00:27:24 for or advocate against firearms and firearm ownership. You can't do that. That has never been good enough for the left because the sole purpose they had of wanting to study this
Starting point is 00:27:40 wasn't because they actually care about saving lives. These people don't care about saving lives. They made a business out of walking women into a meat grinder called Planned Parenthood. turn in the baby out, making sausage for their executives. They made a whole thing of it. They laundering money through it.
Starting point is 00:27:58 They donate to Democrats through it. So let's stop pretending that these jackasses care about life, okay? Let's stop. They don't. But when it's convenient for them, they do. But they didn't like this stipulation within the Dickey Amendment. That's been law since the 90s. You can't use taxpayer dollars to advocate for or against firearm ownership.
Starting point is 00:28:24 okay well that's what they wanted to do that's all they've ever wanted to do they don't mourn for life loss they mourn for opportunity loss the moment the moment the news of a tragedy hits the televisions newspapers social media they're already thinking of ways that they can maximize this to their advantage they were doing this after parkland I don't know if you guys knew this, but they had, it was the Nickertbocker firm that's in D.C. Anita Dunn works there. They were down there in Parkland right after this happened.
Starting point is 00:29:01 They had their high-powered Democrat PR people. Who do you think put March for Lives together? It was their people. It was Anita Dunn. It was all those people. There are photos of it all over the place. And I talked to the parents, some of them, who lost their precious children in Parkland, and they were, uh,
Starting point is 00:29:18 treated pretty scornfully when they couldn't be pressured into joining the anti-gun movement there in Parkland. And she was there. All that firm was there. They were all there. This isn't about saving lives. It's about how can they use this to get something that they want from their agenda? And the way that they write about this, oh, there's no, you're not allowed to study any kind of firearm prevention, on, you know, anything. As long as you don't politicize it, but the left can't help themselves. They've got to politicize it. None of this.
Starting point is 00:29:55 And what is it going to solve? You know what the biggest problem is? The policies they support. The fact that you got a family, families, middle class families in the United States cannot live on one income anymore. You have to sacrifice. You have to struggle. You used to not be like that.
Starting point is 00:30:12 But the government needed to spend everybody's money. Right? We had to go fight forever. Wars. We had to go nation build. We had to hand out entitlements like it was Halloween candy to every Tom Dick and Harry that rolled through the Rio, the southern border. Oh, we had to fund a whole bunch of stuff that was completely unrelated to the federal government's original purpose. We had to make it economically impossible for families to operate in the best manner for families to operate. We had to make college super expensive while simultaneously shaming people for not going and getting
Starting point is 00:30:48 four-year degrees. and then shaming them if they went to the wrong kind of college. We had to do all that. We had to start shaming women into thinking that they were just dumb bimbos who are nothing more than sex dolls that breathe for the frat progressive bros that ruin frat culture. The progressive bros out there who want to be able to have one night stands and not be responsible for any life created. And the women go right along with it while acting like it's some form of empowerment. one of the greatest tricks perpetuated upon women since the snake told Eve to eat the apple. Or was it their own free will?
Starting point is 00:31:28 We have men who are browbeaten by the matriarchy so that now nobody wants to get married. Nobody wants to create more hell spawn to cover this godforsaken rock. And then Democrats are like, well, gosh, how did we get here? I guess we should ban guns. Hell, how about we ban you? That's the problem. it's just going to we're going to keep having these problems and having these tragedies because you have half the country that's not serious. I would actually say half of that half of the country
Starting point is 00:32:03 if I'm being honest. I think there are some Democrats who don't know where the hell else to go. They don't, they can't really identify as Republican because Republican means a whole bunch of stuff now. They know that they're not conservative, even though that's really about conserving individual liberty, but you know, whatever. But they know that they're not really Democrat. They don't know where else to go, so they're kind of stuck in the middle. Whose house did they go to for Christmas? Wherever it doesn't play. Baby, it's cold outside, maybe.
Starting point is 00:32:29 Our partners over at Burn a Gun, the non-firearm, firearm. And it's always good to diversify your self-defense arsenal because, you know, I would love to, I carry all the time. And I have zero problem using lethal force. You come at me, UFA, UFO. That's kind of how I look at it. But I know that there are areas that are gun-free. zones or gun-free buildings, private property or whatever it is. And sometimes, you know, you don't have the luxury of declining to go there. Maybe you've got to go there as part of your job,
Starting point is 00:33:01 but you also don't want to be a statistic. This is where Burn a gun comes in. Stung guns, regular ones, are restricted to like one or two shots. Burna's most popular model, the Burna SD has a five-round capacity and shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can disable threats from up to 50 feet away. They have a whole carry bundle that you can get. This is a great holiday gift, too, by the way. You can get defense spray. They have LA launcher carry bundle. They got all kinds of stuff. But it provides to you instant readiness, no recoil, easy target acquisition.
Starting point is 00:33:31 It's illegal in all 50 states. No background checks, no permits. They can ship it right to your front porch, and it doesn't care about gun-free zone signs. It's an effective deterrent. And it's another option that you can have for self-defense, particularly when the state's trying to deny you. Or maybe a property owner wants to deny you.

Like Sands Through the Hourglass, so are the days of the United States. What she's been saying to people over the last couple of weeks, donors, other supporters that she's been talking with, is you haven't seen the last of me. I'm not going quietly into the night. Advisors, people close to her, are debating about what that means. They do not want her final official act ever to be essentially certifying Donald Trump's win over her,
Starting point is 00:34:33 especially four years after January 6th. And so they look at this governor's race in California in 2026, and it seems to them like a layup. Are we ever going to get rid of her? They don't really like her. They don't like her out in California. They don't really like her federal. They don't like her. You can't stop trying to make fetch happen.
Starting point is 00:34:57 Stop it, Gratjohn. I just, why do we keep, are we just never going to get rid of her? She's going to run in California, Kamala Harris, considering a potential run for a California governor. You know, I got to tell you, I feel like that would be blocked. Because nobody likes it. Everybody's got grievances. They're mad because she wasted so much money. I have to tell you, too.
Starting point is 00:35:21 Part of that is Democrats wasting a lot of money. They made her the fall guy for it. They wouldn't get Biden out and they shoved her in there. I'm not defending her, but I'm just saying, you know, keep in perspective. We got a second hour coming up, don't miss. Our friends over at Patriot Mobile, the only Christian conservative cell phone service in the country, Patriot Mobile exists. And because they offer the best service and it's affordable.

Starting point is 00:36:28 limited time, or until supplies run out, terms and conditions, apply. That's patriotmobile.com slash Dana 972 Patriot. Sure. Of course. I mean, it's just, swam's going to swamp, right? 1,400 pages, still haven't seen the text. Multiple subject matters. important health care legislation in the context of extenders piled on the back of a three-month CR with about 110 billion unpaid for, 25 billion of health care policy, half of which is fake pay for, being sold that is paid for, because they're gimmicks and shuffling around the decks.
Starting point is 00:37:07 Things like E-15, which we didn't even have a full debate on, this is not the way to do business, right? And so, you know, we'd do something different. since we've been given the majority again, we're adding $300, I think, $30 billion in literally totally unpaid for additional deficit spending just since November 5th. Yeah, they want to spend more.
Starting point is 00:37:31 I don't know why the speaker is allowing for, like a budget, just pass the CR and get on with it. Oh, but hey, remember the guy who's not in Congress anymore wanted a big old fight at the most inopportune time over speaker when no one else was prepared to step up. So we got an equal rhino with even less seniority as speaker. Great job. Welcome back to the show.
Starting point is 00:37:56 Daniel Ash with you. We're at the top of the second hour. And I'm saying that's not the best way to start off. Johnson needs to stop getting cover from party leaders. That would be great guys. Thanks. Including POTUS elect. Stop it.
Starting point is 00:38:08 Don't give this guy cover. The reason that he's compromising and not just like kicking over a CR continuing resolution for this budget stuff is because he keeps getting justification not to do so whenever he's given cover by people who outrank him in the GOP. That's an issue. We can't be doing that. I'm not, man, I'm done with it. I don't want more of the same.
Starting point is 00:38:32 People are tired of more than the same. Honestly, a lot of Republican stuff isn't that much different from Democrats. Oh, it makes people mad when I say that. The people who have a grift to cover get mad when I say that. But it's God's honest truth. I mean, are we going to walk away from deportations? Are we going to slow at building the wall? We never got Obamacare overturned despite every single damn Republican that sits in a seat in D.C. campaigning on it. So what do we get for our money? Oh, we get to pretend that we're actually more aligned with the Constitution than Democrats. Okay.
Starting point is 00:39:04 So, again, welcome. You can, obviously, you're, you know you're listening to the program, either across the country or you're watching at 347. The chat's at Rumble if you're on a way. of course over at Substack as well. Yeah, I'm aggravated over this because I'm tired of paying taxes to cover the backside of a government that can't stop spending. This story, this stuff enrages me. It absolutely enrages me. So I don't know why it is. We keep doing it. This is not what we voted for.
Starting point is 00:39:39 So I really think, and I've, I think I had like a, this was part of one of the newsletters that went out for headlines. I just don't know why Johnson has got, got to get with it a little bit here. They've got to cut spending. Why would you have right before, you're about to see your party take over the White House and the Senate and the House and you're going to greenlight the passage of an omnibus? us. And then we're all going to act like, oh, yeah, we're really serious about spending. It's a mess. It's going to be a mess. Just do the CR and then wait until we have the numbers in the House and in the Senate. And then maybe we can cut a little bit. But I don't think
Starting point is 00:40:32 Republicans want the austerity that comes with cutting. They're too dependent upon that government cash. They got all their special projects. They don't want to lose any of that. They don't want to lose it. A few other things I want to touch on as well. And we'll keep an eye on that, all of that stuff. I didn't get to this, but, well, there's a couple of things that I'm going to go. We're going to talk about the Canada and apparently what's going on with the governor of Canada. Right, Kane? You know the governor of Canada. Yeah. Yeah, he seems like he's not bad, the governor of Canada. No, he's horrible. He's a little Castro. Yeah. America's hat. We're going to talk about the drama that's happening with them.
Starting point is 00:41:14 and calls for Trudeau to step down, which is pretty serious. Then we're going to, and we'll continue following this CR fight. Yeah, 1500 page. So wait, they're supposed to vote on this tomorrow. And as of last night at 8 o'clock, they did not have the bill yet.
Starting point is 00:41:41 Wow. Just let it expire. Let the government shut down. They're terrified of having a government shutdown. I love government shutdown. you think they're going to shut it down came I hope they do we're getting a whole new Congress here
Starting point is 00:41:59 in a month I don't know what they're doing being stupid yeah that's exactly what they're doing they are being absolutely idiotic completely idiotic but that's that's them the Elon Musk apparently was meeting with Nigel Farage and other
Starting point is 00:42:17 leaders in the UK he met them at Marlago and there's rumors that he gave them, there's rumors of a $100 million donation going around. Farage is a member of parliament, and he's a leader of Reform UK. And he was also at the head of Brexit. He's a conservative over there.
Starting point is 00:42:40 So he's been an MP leader of Reform UK, and there's discussion as to what must can do to partner maybe with the more conservative members of British government to push back and save British culture or the British, you know, Britain period, similar to what Musk contributed here in the U.S. That might not. That might be fun. That might be fun to watch.
Starting point is 00:43:06 It also gives him a lot of power. But it might be fun to watch what, what happened? Although our Brits, I don't know, are Brits ready to kind of push back against the woke scolds and the. crushing wave of completely unmitigated, much of it illegal immigration into their country? I mean, even Germany is saying enough. Austria is even saying enough.
Starting point is 00:43:31 A lot of these European nations are saying enough. We don't have the resources. Their crime is, because they can't vet anybody who's coming in. It's all military age men. Enough is enough. Will it? I don't know. Because I do think that the makeup of
Starting point is 00:43:46 and sentiment and attitude in the UK are very different from what they are in America. Like we live and breathe this type of stuff. Like other people talk about revolution. We actually, we succeeded. We weren't like France in which we failed. And then we had a dictator followed by a restoration of the monarchy. We didn't do any of that.
Starting point is 00:44:06 It's stuck for now. But they're very different sentiments and attitudes. I would be interested to see if they were able to do the same over there. It's something definitely to watch. I wanted to also touch on because we were talking about drones. We've been discussing drones.
Starting point is 00:44:29 There was a couple of stories that I didn't get to, including, and I'm going to push this one. We're talking about the Wisconsin shooting in the way that Democrats are trying to seize upon it also. And they're not going to do anything right now, but they are saber-rattling. that they're using a lot of the discussion surrounding the abundant life school shooting as a way to kind of regroup their side. This is one of the things I've been watching. I really do think that they're using
Starting point is 00:45:00 it as a regrouping mechanism. They're trying to get everybody back on the same page because everyone was so all over the place and fighting with each other over DEI and immigration. And I think they're just happy to have, I know it sounds sick, but I think they're happy to have something around which they can rally and regroup. So they're back to gun control. That's their safe space. They always go back to gun control. They don't have any solutions, but, you know, they've, they're, that's it.
Starting point is 00:45:29 Speaking of this yesterday, it was, I don't know if I want to play this whole cup, but the police chief at the time, they wouldn't release the age or gender of the killer. Why was that? Why were they hesitant to mention the gender of the killer? Because it's a girl and she's not trans. Did they think she was? I was wondered about that. Did they think that she was trans?
Starting point is 00:45:49 And that's why they didn't want to release it? I don't know. It's, I don't know. That's just, that's, it was weird that they didn't. And it just fueled conspiracy theories. Why would you not release it? Does it make any sense?
Starting point is 00:46:08 They, I think the police chief, well, the Madison, Wisconsin police chief, of course, is pretty left. the other a couple of other things here the other new the headline i saw was apparently was a second grader who called 911 now when that headline hit i saw a lot of the gun control activists saying this is how sad society is the second grader had to call 911 my first thought was that school had nothing in place so a second grader had to call 911 that was my first grader had to call 911 that was my
Starting point is 00:46:47 first thought. A second grader, they had no warning system. You have to realize we live in a sick society where wayward behavior is rewarded. Criminality is protected. The boundary between right and wrong is being blurred away. And in this type of environment, Because we have always had firearms. We've always had guns in this country. Firearm ownership, private ownership, unfettered by the government, predates this republic. We've always had people who built guns. We've always had people that have had guns.
Starting point is 00:47:33 They predate this republic. But a relatively new phenomenon are these mass casualty incidents, specifically ones that target schools. and I go back to what I was just saying about our society. It's a trash garbage society. So in a trash garbage society, you have to realize that trash garbage societies create trash garbage people who are going to do trash garbage things like Target Schools. And that's exactly what we saw in this situation.
Starting point is 00:48:11 I do think it's interesting how a lot of the news of it has gone away. Kane or am I overthinking it? No, I was actually commenting to one about that this morning. I noticed when we were getting set up for the show that it's like, wow, where was this? 15, a girl? Yeah, that's what I think. So we had in Nashville, it was trans Tifa. So this is Fem Tifa.
Starting point is 00:48:38 That's why you have to, why schools must be protected now because everybody wants to target schools. We have a lot more to get into, including the, got stuff with Doge. We've got some sound bites as well, especially about this. ABC stuff. And I have a I have a tale, two tales of really ridiculous media, ABC and CNN. And the CNN story, I cannot get over. This chick who, I didn't know she was like some zealist actress. She thought that she was legit saving a prisoner in Syria and they made a big deal about it. And as it turns out, she was like apparently springing one of Assad's torturers or something like that. Like, I don't like the rebels. I don't like a side either. I don't have to like anybody, neither do you. But I think it was funny that she thought that she was freeing some sort of like innocent dove. Black Rifle Coffee has a new roast. Their freedom roast.

So Argentina's making some good moves on firearms. This is interesting. So one of the things that they're doing is lowering the minimum age for authorization to carry firearms to 18.
Starting point is 00:50:56 And they adopted that measure. And I think what it goes into effect pretty soon. Because in the United States, it's 21 to carry it unless it's 18 with a shotgun hunting rifle, something like that. But interesting. And he's been, Ivor Mali's been just absolutely deregulating the Argentinian government at a rate of speed. that has never before been seen. And they're getting in a lot of government revenue after doing that. I hope that Republicans pay attention to that, not just give it lip service.
Starting point is 00:51:28 Also, some concerned shoppers are stockpiling goods because everything is stupid. Stop listening to the media on this stuff. So apparently, people are stockpiling what canned foods and some things like that, dog food and paper towels and there. I get that you're, I mean, having a prepper's pantry, that's not. It's not a bad thing. I wouldn't even describe that as stockpiling. I would just say that that's like preparation. But I do think that certain people, I have noticed, like there's like a run on certain canned goods. And it's because people are, stop it. Just stop it.
Starting point is 00:52:00 Don't listen to the media fearmongering on this stuff. Let's see. Some people are wanting to swap turkey for takeout. A poll suggests that Americans are rejecting tradition. And it's not an anti-Christian thing. I think it's just people are busy and they're tired. 2,000 adults were surveyed. 31% of them apparently want to see more unusual alternatives.
Starting point is 00:52:23 I don't know. I like the turkey. I like, you know, usually do red meat on Christmas. I like turkey on Thanksgiving. I like that kind of stuff. I just, I don't care. I eat cardboard for all I care. I really don't care. Kane says to not. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:52:39 He cares. I don't. Just saying, you know, do whatever you want to do. And, you know, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. I know people who have tamales on Christmas Eve. They do tamales. every Christmas seat, that's a big thing. Do whatever you want to do.
Starting point is 00:52:49 It's all American. All right, we've got a lot more on the way, including let's, we've got to talk about some grifters and we've got to talk about CR. Stick with us. Keep your finger on the pulse with a Dana Show podcast, delivering timely news with insightful analysis, whenever you want, straight to you on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts. Look, as we hold our loved ones close this holiday season, we as a nation, we as a nation,
Starting point is 00:53:17 must renew our commitment to end the horror of gun violence, both mass shootings and everyday gun violence that touches so many communities in our nation. We must end it, and we must be committed to have the courage to know that solutions are in hand, but we need elected leaders to have the courage to step up. And do what? Do what? Do what? Kamala Harris, a day late and a dollar short, as always, decides to go out and speak about, what, try to push gun control after Wisconsin? It's not shocking. But again, it's just a bunch of ridiculousness. Like, why are we, for what law do they propose that it would have prevented any of this?
Starting point is 00:54:12 they're all trying to rally and get back to the same square and they're using this as the means to do so. Again, these were also the same people that did cheer the CEO's execution last week by a firearm. But hey, that was okay then. That was all right then. Welcome back, Dana, I'll share with you, bottom of this second hour. I saw that, and that's brand new from her, brand new from her.
Starting point is 00:54:41 where she thinks that she says that she's using this to call for more of the saying that has not ever worked. I just get tired of it. People sit here and they've been proposing like a number of different things. Well, you know, we need to have safe storage. Okay. Who's going to enforce safe storage? Are you going to send agents to the homes of every single innocent firearm owning American in the United states. The same left that was just decrying the idea of deportation because they couldn't
Starting point is 00:55:18 understand possibly how every single person who entered illegally could be found and sent back to their country of origin. So the safe storage stuff. So you want an agent of state, first off, what they're doing is they're making the argument for the left for a national registry. Because in order to do checks, you're already pushing to incorporate firearm owners as federal firearms licensees. And that's what Joe Biden has proposed. He wants to make just basic gun ownership to where you have to have an FFL. It doesn't matter if you're in retail. Doesn't matter if you're selling anything like that. If you have an FFL, just for regular firearm owners. So people who are pushing safe storage for not a single damn one of the states, including California, New York, who already have quote unquote
Starting point is 00:56:03 storage laws. It's not had any kind of impact, by the way, on their homicide rate. Absolutely none. That's number one. Number two, you're inviting agents of state into your home to check and see whether or not they think that you've stored your firearms adequately. So they're going to know exactly what you have and they're going to treat you like an FFL. And I'm assuming it would be the ATF, right, Kane? The same ATF that had its own security staff pilfer tons of guns from its inventory. I don't know if you guys knew this. This is a pretty big. story. The ATF had their own employees steal all their guns that they had in their inventory. Some of it was ATF on firearms. Some of it was confiscated, etc. And they had their security personnel, their employees stealing from them, taking from it. And then they lost a bunch. They don't
Starting point is 00:56:58 even know how. So that entity, the entity that ran guns in Mexico, according to the Fast and Furious op, that entity would be the one in charge of coming into your home. and checking how you store your firearms. That's what that means. That's how you have to do safe storage. So the people out there talking about it, by the way, if they go in to your home to check safe storage and they see something else maybe that they don't like,
Starting point is 00:57:26 who's to say that they're not going to pop you for that? Just saying. I mean, go ahead and open those doors if you think that that's what you want to do. Unbelievable. No, people can freely move to China if they want. I want to talk about a couple other different things here, including this thing. Can we just pause for a minute?
Starting point is 00:57:45 I don't know about you. I watch, I like Taylor Sheridan. I think Landman's a little blue in terms of humor. Billy Bob Thornton's spectacular in that series, though. Full disclosure, they actually, we met the scout, the location for Landman because they were, they thought about using our house as a set at one point. they didn't but how that would have actually been kind of cool they didn't do it but they they thought about it and I thought that might be kind of neat like only if it's like
Starting point is 00:58:18 Billy Bob Thornton's house because that would be fascinating to like you know stand in the corner and watch a scene actually work there would be that would be I have no desire to be in it at all I just I just like to see how the sausage is made so anyway we started watching Landman and we've been watching mayor king's town I like all his stuff Yellowstone the latest episode the latest last season of Yellowstone
Starting point is 00:58:39 wrapped up and I thought it was actually done really well. Anyone who watches it, they pick up real quick. Sheridan doesn't come out and say he's a hardcore righty, but you can pretty much tell that from the dialogue that he has. The dialogue where he talks about oil and gas and he talks about gun ownership and land and all this other stuff and bash his big government one side and off down the other in every single episode. And it's very refreshing and it's not done.
Starting point is 00:59:09 in a manner that is forced or cringy. I always hate when people make a film or make a song with the desire to be political first. And then the art is the secondary consideration. I hate that stuff. And nobody's more guilty of it than people on the right. God love you, but you are. People on the left, they're a little, they've had practice with it. You know, they're used to slipping stuff in their storylines.
Starting point is 00:59:30 We don't do that because we're, you know, we're not liars. So, you know, anyway. So I was, I was, I saw this on social. media last night. And some of these accounts I don't follow and I don't have anything to do with because I just don't subscribe to any of it. But I saw some dude who I guess as a conservative influencer was out there and I watched the last season of Yellowstone.
Starting point is 00:59:52 I don't know who says stuff like this. He posted one of the final scenes of Yellowstone was the native Indian tribe children taking over the ranch and knocking over the gravestones of Dutton ancestors while laughing. That's how Taylor Sheridan sent off the Dutton family. Are you paying attention yet? And Kevin Sorbo. Christian Kevin Sorbo even responded to it saying that's incredibly disappointing. Nobody watched the episode.
Starting point is 01:00:14 I watched the damn episode. And what happened was you had teenagers who were in after, and I don't care about spoiler alerts. I'm not here to do that and gatekeep for you. But in that episode, there were like three or four Native American teenagers that were knocking over the Dutton's headstones. And the elders came in there. Mo the elder came in there and blasted them and said, how dare you? you and he just, I mean, he just about beat him to death. He was screaming at them. He was like, how dare you do this? He was like, they fought to, and died to defend this land. And the whole
Starting point is 01:00:49 episode was how they both realized the Native Americans and the Dunn family, they all realized that they had been on the same side the entire time. They didn't want to have corporations come in and overdevelop the land and kill all the wildlife and be horrible stewards, you know, of all this stuff. And I would play this for you, but we can't play it because we'll get kicked off of YouTube. It would be a strike against us. So I can't share with you the clip of it because YouTube will literally take our account off air, even though it's newsworthy. But that's the way it is in fair use. But okay.
Starting point is 01:01:24 But he like blasted them for doing this. And then he very carefully and arduously pulled back every single headstone. And in the end, the head of the tribe, you know, was standing there and he had a tear down his face because he was thinking, he finally realized these two men had begun as their relationship started in the series as mortal enemies. And then they realized we were actually on the same side. And they ended up selling the ranch to the Native American tribe for like, you know, a dollar or whatever from how they purchased it back in like 1823. And I had said in the very beginning of the season, I'm like, I wonder if they're going to fulfill what they said in the first. installment of this story. In 1823, they had said, well, in seven generations, you can have it back. That's what Tim McGrath's character had told one of the elders of the tribe. And seven generations later, here it is. And it was, it was a pretty amazing thing. They ended up both wanting to protect that land and not have it overdeveloped. None of the kids wanted it. John Dutton's kids in the series did not want the ranch. So they
Starting point is 01:02:30 honored their promise to their father by not having the land overdeveloped. And they also got got out from underneath the ranch. So I don't know why someone's lying about something as stupid as this. Like, I don't understand people who go out in charlatan like this. And that's exactly what it is. And double down on it. Because when this was brought up, this dude had said, oh, well, that was the trajectory. No, it wasn't.
Starting point is 01:02:52 Well, they ended up losing the ranch. Because, as I just said, neither kid wanted it. So they ended up, it actually was the complete opposite of what was being claimed in that post on X. the absolute opposite. So this, I mean, it's, it's, I don't know why people make up this stuff.
Starting point is 01:03:15 I thought it was a great scene. I thought it was a scene where those kids were told. They were educated. And then in the very end, they were very, they're agreed upon, they dismantled the house, and they, they promised to never develop the land. They took care of the cemetery. They promised all that stuff.
Starting point is 01:03:35 fulfilling it. That's how Taylor Sheridan sent off the Dutton family. So I don't understand why someone's trying to manufacture a complaint and lie about a final scene that other people have seen. I, you know, really, really hope that's the case. And I don't understand, too, there was a, there's a community note on it that I think that they were trying to get to go away. But I just, you've got to be careful with some of this stuff. There are people on the right who I didn't see, before 2016. That didn't really have like any sort of record of measures where you could tell where they were politically or in terms of genuineness.
Starting point is 01:04:19 But there are people on the right who will purposely mislead you and try to bait you into a manufactured division. And it's easy to do. It has been easy to do lately because everybody's, you know, you kind of had to pick aside in this huge cultural battle and this political battle. but now that we're through that, I think that be very discerning because there are snakes among you. Absolutely. And there are grifters among you.
Starting point is 01:04:45 And you just need to just need to be careful with stuff. And I hope that the people, especially the Christians and the mentions of that thread, I hope that they, you know, take back some of their words and honor their faith and be a little bit more, be a little bit more transparent and a little bit more honest with stuff because it's disappointing to see. and it makes people disillusioned about every political side, not just the left. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man. That's the most of the stories I'm starting off like that.
Starting point is 01:05:25 So a guy, a Florida guy nicknamed Shroom decided to settle a $150 debt by going to an apartment to get to I guess to collect $150 and the they call the guy the victim I guess the victim who owned who supposedly owed him money he was just there playing video games the three dudes including Shroom was among them busted on his door
Starting point is 01:05:54 they roughed him up the victim got pistol whipped and then the victim recognized one of the masked men and that was his old buddy Shroom who's Lasroo Gonzalez Gonzalez I don't know why he has two of the same name, but he does. Well, I don't get that. It kind of looks like a shroom, I guess. And yes, the victim did owe $150, but instead of working out a payment plan,
Starting point is 01:06:26 he declared that the three men destroyed $150 of his own property. So they decided that that was even. But shroom did go to jail for assault. That's just one of the, I'm trying to get over his name. That's the biggest offense in this piece. Florida man lost a drone to an alligator after flying it too close to the water. We need to get some of these gators up in Jersey. Drone operators, I never heard of that, of where a gator got it. And this story, by the way, that's written by a website called Motor Biscuit, they don't know how to write stories because they bury the lead, four graphs down.
Starting point is 01:07:01 But a guy in Florida obviously flew his drone way too close to a gator. He was trying to get a good shot of it. and I guess he didn't realize that Gators can actually propel themselves up out of the water with their tails and that's exactly what happened the Gator just like jumped up like a great white shark would jump up
Starting point is 01:07:17 he jumped up out of the water and grabbed the drone and then went into a death roll so that guy's not going to get his drone back Kane I don't think that guy's I think that's a loss yeah that's not that ain't never coming back it's never ever coming back let's see this guy
Starting point is 01:07:34 stole a rolls Royce and crashed it into a checkers. Now I had to stop here because I haven't heard of that place in a long time. That's the hamburger place, right? Yeah. The rallies and checkers? Yeah, yeah, yeah. The rallies and the chuckers, because didn't Chuckers buy rallies or something like that? Okay. The role, it was a Rolls Royce SUV and it was stolen from a valet at a Fort Lauderdale hotel and they crashed it into a checkers at 2.15 a.m. A Rolls Royce, I don't even know. It's an SUV. I mean, maybe he was like super hungry. By the way, the restaurant where he crashed it was barely six miles away from the hotel.
Starting point is 01:08:16 Mm-hmm. And the punishment in Florida for Grand Theft Auto is actually based on the value of the property stolen. And the top tier is any vehicle over $100,000. And this is even more than that. So this guy is looking to face up to 30 years in jail for taking a six-bursed. barely six-mile joyride, stealing a Rolls-Roy's SUV and crashing it into a checkers. So, I don't know. The guy who, by the way, the Rolls-Roy's owner, he told CBS News Miami that he was sleeping and
Starting point is 01:08:50 the valet went and knocked on his door or the hotel did. And they said it was stolen from the valet. So, yeah, it wasn't found at the checkers. It was found inside the checkers because he ran it in there. Let's see. This guy. I'm not reading that. Because it's gross. I'm not doing that. Can we just
Starting point is 01:09:12 not with the stories about everybody exposing themselves? What is up with that? Is it just because it's humid down there? I don't know. A Florida man was arrested during a treehouse robbery. Yeah, I don't know. And there's crack cocaine involved. Florida authorities arrested a guy because police said he stabbed a man to death during a robbery and a tree house. It stemmed from a crack deal. Of course it did. Monroe County Sheriff's deputy say the victim, 59-year-old Matthew Bonnet was trying to help a dealer who, or trying to help a neighbor who's being robbed by two maskmen.
Starting point is 01:09:50 The female victim lived in a treehouse in the trailer park. So she didn't have a trailer in the trailer park. She had a tree house in the trailer park. And I guess they climbed up there and the deal went sideways and they stabbed her. The guy's being held in Monroe County Jail. Well, there you go. Third hour next, guys. Stick with us. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you at the top of this third hour. It's already Tuesday. Tomorrow's Wednesday. We're almost to Christmas Eve week. It's pretty amazing. You can listen across the country. We also have the chat at Rumble and don't forget to sign up over at Substack.
Starting point is 01:10:25 Lots of good stuff up there. So where to even start? I'm going to pull. What's going on with America's hat? I know. The Canadian government is just losing it. I, but now I was reading something about, um, the challenger, like some of the people who are challenging the governor or the president that had, just call him the governor of the state of
Starting point is 01:10:53 Canada, uh, Justin Trudeau, little Castro. He's, people, they're trying to pressure him into resigning. I mean, he should. And he's trying to save his spot. He's fighting back against it. But I did think it was kind of interesting. He's been. for 11 years now, the head of their liberal party. And that's quite a long time. They could elect a new leader, whether or not they're going to do that. I guess that's where we'll see. One of his challengers is Jagmeet Singh. He's the one, one of the guys who's called on Trudeau to resign, demand that he stepped down. Apparently, he wants an election in March because he wants to lock in his pension before the election in March.
Starting point is 01:11:38 I don't know. Politicians are going to politician. But there's, I think we have the audio of this where he was being yelled at by people. He is not a audio somebody 19. He is not a, this is live television. He is not a popular person. Listen. Prime Minister, are you going to remain in office? Sir. No, what gives you the right to continue? Watch at all right to stay in offer.
Starting point is 01:12:05 Thank you. You failed Canada. You've ruined our country. You're done. Walk away. You don't have an ounce of your father's integrity. At least he walked in the snow. You've ruined this country.
Starting point is 01:12:16 Everyone around you is running from you. You're abandoned you. Crystal Breel and Sean Frazier, they've all left you. It's time for you to go. It's time for Canada to have an election. Wow. You're not the king. Dang.
Starting point is 01:12:30 I mean, that is something else. That's pretty amazing. They're not, they don't like him. He was really, I thought, when he was first elected, he was pretty celebrated and everybody, you know, the Canadians seem to like him, but now they hate him. They don't like him at all anymore. I think there's
Starting point is 01:12:47 probably, I mean, obviously a good reason for that. But their government is, uh, I think he's going to get run out. I think that the tide is turning. I think it's turning. I think he's came, say what you stay on air what you just said. I was like, imagine what it takes to make
Starting point is 01:13:03 polite Canadians into these mad, rabid people. Imagine what that takes. Yeah. It's exactly what Trudeau's done. I mean, I think it, because aren't they pretty much like, hey, sorry to offend, eh? Maple syrup, maple leafs. Yay.
Starting point is 01:13:20 I don't know. Not exactly. The finance minister resigned. That was his, you know, his top, top lieutenant. He's out. I don't know. I can't imagine him staying on. I just can't imagine him staying on in this position.
Starting point is 01:13:38 I don't. because he's, well, Pierre Palliver, who I love, he's this guy who, do you guys remember Pierre Palliver? He follows me on X. He was the guy who was eating an apple when a reporter was asking him questions. And he, in the most lackadaisical manner possible, just gutted this guy. But he says that Trudeau has to resign. Listen. Mr. Trudeau is being held in office by one man.
Starting point is 01:14:08 Zhang Meets Singh, a fifth of liberal MPs have written a letter for him to resign. His deputy prime minister has walked out on him. His housing minister has quit. That on top of numerous other female ministers who stormed out after his appalling mistreatment and abuse and dishonesty towards them. Eighty percent of Canadians have lost confidence in this Prime Minister. So why is Jagmeet Singh making the entire country wait for him to get his pension? That is the question.
Starting point is 01:14:47 He wants his pension. March election so he can lock in his pension. That's why. Well, we'll watch and see what happens with the governor of Canada there. We'll watch and see. San Francisco has a new government position. Do you hear about this? No.
Starting point is 01:15:08 Yeah. It is a... consultant. I'm not going to play this whole video because it's stupid. Well, maybe I will actually. This person is supposed to be the Checks Notes, weight stigma czar. What? Mm-hmm. Now, Cain? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:30 I want you to tell me if the person whose image I just placed in Slack is qualified to be the checks notes, weight stigma czar well she'd no I almost went on a tangent there but no Juan's going to be putting up
Starting point is 01:15:53 a quick little video of her inaction what is weight neutrality I think that's in space right you have no you're weightless we'll play this when he gets it it's that ridiculous she's working with a team at the San Francisco Department of
Starting point is 01:16:09 Public Health it says here as a consultant on weight stigma and weight neutrality. What is weight neutrality? What is that? Is that a thing? When someone's neutral? Does it have a flag? I guess if you're just neutral about the idea of weight or extra weight?
Starting point is 01:16:31 I, your guess is as good as mine, but Juan's ready if you're ready. Oh, please. Let's hear this. I'm sorry. Hi, my name is Virgie Tovar, and I'm the author of You Have the Right to Remain Fat, as well as a few other books on fat positivity and body acceptance. When I think about what people might be surprised by or what you wouldn't think of when you think of eating disorders,
Starting point is 01:16:54 I immediately think of being a kid. I was a kid in a larger body, a teen in a larger body, and also I'm an adult in a larger body. And the message I always got from my doctor was, shrink your body by any means necessary. And it really felt like there was a sense of a don't ask, don't tell. So because I truly, truly, truly believed, right? And this is where I think the surprise comes in.
Starting point is 01:17:16 I really believed that this was about my health. I really believed that my doctor was right, because why would I believe anything? That's real. That's real. Your doctor was right. And it's not, let's not do fat positivity. I don't believe in fat-shaming people unless, you know, the calls for it. but people pointing out that your obesity is a comorbidity is a health issue that's not people
Starting point is 01:17:48 trying to be mean and I think people need to stopping victims stopping a victim I mean come on seriously it's I um really don't understand this like idea was this a backlash to the heroin cheek of the 90s. Is that what we're living with still? What I don't get is imagine any other health concern, you know, whether it's diabetes or whether it's just anything health-wise. Would you encourage people to continue behavior that would exasperate or make that health problem worse?
Starting point is 01:18:30 Would you do that? Would you affirm them knowing that it would make their problem worse? Why would you do that? When she says, you know, I have a right to. you have a right to, you know, you have a right to, you know, be fat or whatever. You don't. And here's why. After you don't.
Starting point is 01:18:46 Absolutely, you blink and do not. And here's why. After Obamacare passed and we all had to pay higher insurance premiums to pay for people who didn't or couldn't want to pay. Oh, I get to have a say in all of that. So you don't get any rights because you invited my tax dollars in. And where my tax dollars go, I follow with a boot in the door. That's what happens. So, no, I get to be involved in it.
Starting point is 01:19:08 Yeah, you don't. My body, my choice. No, it's not my choice to pay your damn bills, so it's not your body to make a choice of. No. If my money goes to it, I'm the boss of you. I will go and knock that zinger right the hell at your hand. And I'll put a carrot in its place, okay? Oh, you want to have a little, you want to have a little Debbie's fudge around?
Starting point is 01:19:28 Eat some cucumber or broccoli. Stop it. I have a right, too. I have a right to go where my tax dollars go. And if you're sucking up more of my tax dollars because you can't get a handle on your weight, then that's a problem for me. I shouldn't have to subsidize that. No one thought of that when they were pushing for the expansion of Obamacare and jacking
Starting point is 01:19:52 every, jacking up everybody's premiums so that we would have to pay for everyone else's care. So no. And everyone's like, oh, Dana, look, I work really hard to stay in shape. and I eat healthy and I do intermittent fasting. I do all of that stuff. I've always worked out. I've always been athletic. I've always maintained.
Starting point is 01:20:16 And it's not because a privilege just decided to, you know, a fairy godmother apparated out of the ether and was like, I'm going to make you like this forever. It's you actually, it's an effort. And I don't want to hear about anyone else's problems or excuses. I don't care. Make the effort. And don't expect me to pay your medical bills because that's the situation. we're all in and as a result
Starting point is 01:20:39 no one can say that they have a right to be this or that since you wanted you asked for this we warned you don't say that we didn't warn you because we did but back to my first question what the hell is weight neutrality what is that
Starting point is 01:20:53 like I'm trying to imagine so you know we have a lot of truckers that listen God love them is that like when do they do they do that for the weight on your truck? You know, like if you go in and you're a way station and they're like, oh, you're weight
Starting point is 01:21:16 neutral to a truck and they're low. Do they say that? Yeah, I don't know. I'm pretty positive. No. I'm just fascinated by I've never, I'm today years old. I've never heard of that phrase, the whole weight neutrality thing, right? Now, I will say this.
Starting point is 01:21:34 I do think that some chicks can go way too far the other way. Like I always bring up Madonna as an example. she at some point as you age my grandmother always said at one point in her life a woman has to choose between her face or her body now i've already told you guys maybe i haven't been public about it what my my goal is because everyone always thinks i've never had plastic surgery or anything like that for the love but i do have a plan to combat wrinkles when it starts setting in i mean i got a little bit here and there but i got a plan you want to know my plan i'm gonna get fat it's natural filler i'm just gonna because I choose face that's it
Starting point is 01:22:15 I choose face because you can't hide ugly that's why do you have the right to be fat then at that point well I'm going to do it in like a healthy way I'm not going to be like morbidly obese that's totally my plan all right my grandmother was like and she said the age is different
Starting point is 01:22:30 what she told me was this she was like at some point in her loss a woman has to choose between face or body and I'm like well she's like you won't know until you get there and then she looked at me and she was like I chose face
Starting point is 01:22:48 and she was like that's why she was like very proud she's like that's why I chose face that's why I don't have hardly no wrinkles is what she would say and I get it so that's my I'm kind of joking but not really that's my whole goal but not like morbidly obese just you know I'm just saying
Starting point is 01:23:08 It's all natural. But there's a difference. You don't want to be like visceral and tawny like Madonna, right? I don't want to see like your your ligaments and stuff. Like I don't, you, a woman shouldn't look like beef jerky. You know what I mean? Like you're supposed to be soft. I don't, don't be brainwashed by these, you know, fourth-wave fembots into thinking that you can't have any fat on your body.
Starting point is 01:23:34 Women need it. And especially as you get older, you know, you need that. extra, especially if you get older because, you know, it helps you when you're an older age. So anyway, I still don't understand what weight neutral is. I'm going to hear from every trucker who listens to us. I am going to get treaties on it. That's what's going to have like big essays on it. I can't wait.
Starting point is 01:23:55 And now all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. I don't even know what the. This is nuts. So this story, apparently, it can't be christmas. here until the city shoots lasers at 20,000 crows. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:24:15 I don't know. It's over at MSN. So apparently, and by the way, whoever David Andreda is, he's a horrible journalist who should be fired because he doesn't know how to write a proper balanced story. I shouldn't have to get three quarters of the way through
Starting point is 01:24:32 before I know what the hell you're talking about because you decide to talk about the birds. But anyway, it was an output. break of West Nile virus, and I guess they're trying to do like vermin control. So it's in a couple of different, a couple of different cities that they're having to deal with. This story is so stupid. Let's see here. We got a couple of others. Firefighter dressed as Santa, battle two alarm blaze in Delaware County. That's pretty cool. And, well, we're running out of time. We've got to get moving. Stick with us. I went long last segment. Apologies back in a moment.
Starting point is 01:25:05 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 get your podcast. My OEM team. On the way here, I was on the phone with my OEM team, and we now have guidance coming from the state, and that guidance does say two different things. First of all, there is a downed drone in our vicinity. We are immediately to call the bomb squad of our county, and second, our fire department has been instructed to make sure they wear hazmat suits. So if something falls out of the sky that people have seen, and some of these things are big as an SUV.
Starting point is 01:25:42 If that happens, you're to treat this more than a plane crash. It's treated like an attack on the homeland? That is correct, because they're not quite sure if there's a payload or not. On the way here... So it sounds like it's the nuke stuff. That's the...
Starting point is 01:26:00 That was one of the... What was it? One of the theories that was going around. And then apparently it's trying to find radioactive material that I mean everything so far that's being said kind of makes sense with that welcome back to the program Dana Lash with you bottom of this third hour I'm looking at this newsweek piece that dives into it a little bit more and that gets into the whole mysterious you know the drone fever the they said at first they thought
Starting point is 01:26:33 it could maybe be a potential gas leak now they're thinking that maybe it's like radioactive material and all of these aerospace and, you know, people who are experts basically in these industries, they've all said that they don't think it's nefarious, but they think that the only reason that they're flying that low is because they're basically trying to suss out something on the ground. Like gas leaks, pockets of radiation, they're looking for something very important. and I just, if that's the case, what is the harm in telling the public that? Or do you think it's bad if they tell the public, oh, by the way, we lost some radioactive stuff. We've got to have these drones out there to suss it out at night. Be careful, right?
Starting point is 01:27:29 Do you think the, Kane, do you think the public would go nuts if they were told that there was like some lost nuclear or whatever radioactive material out there. I mean, they're kind of being told that now. They're saying that that's part of the speculation. So I do believe. Well, it's everybody else's speculation that the government's not putting to bed. But that's all it was. Remember on Sunday and yesterday when we talked about this on the show, and you're like,
Starting point is 01:27:50 oh, that's just one guy saying that now. Well, now it's a lot of guys saying. Yeah. You know what I mean? So it does evolve, eventually evolve. So I'm not really certain how crazy this will evolve. I'm just curious if they lost it. who took it?
Starting point is 01:28:10 I mean, how did they lose it? Or was it stolen? And if it was stolen, what for? I got a lot of questions. Although, then you have that one wallmaker, Van Drew, who came out and said, Now it's the Iranian mothership, which, you know, also kind of sounds like it could make sense. None of them, none of them confirm my favorite theory, though. Kane.
Starting point is 01:28:36 I know what it is. Alien. just saying just saying they said that I don't even I looked at the project Blue Beam thing where global elites
Starting point is 01:28:50 playing to stage a fake alien invasion that seems like a Rube Goldberg kind of operation to I don't I don't put a lot of I don't know when my government tells me to do something I don't want to do it and when they tell me to believe something
Starting point is 01:29:06 I don't want to believe it I am so anti-authority that I can't, I can barely follow like push down and turn directions. Because I'm like, are you trying to be the boss of me? I argue with everything in my life. Are you trying to be the boss of me, bottle? Like, I'm so anti-authority. So bad. It's a problem, Kaine.
Starting point is 01:29:25 It's a rule issue. Child-proof caps. Huh? Anti-child-proof caps. Yeah. Like push down and turn. How dare you tell me what to do, bottle? I'll do what I want.
Starting point is 01:29:33 I'll open you how I want. But you know what I mean. I love it. So I don't know. I mean, I kind of wish they would stage a fake alien invasion. Give us something to do. I'm bored to tears all this, like the same goofy fruit loops in D.C. Yes?
Starting point is 01:29:50 I was talking to Juan this morning, and you know how it is every year? We do this every year. We get to December. We're getting into the holiday season. And then what does the government do with the news cycle? They start dumping all the bad stuff during the time of the year that most people aren't paying attention to the news. So yeah, I believe that there's going to be some sort of something. Aliens?
Starting point is 01:30:13 Yeah. Oh, wait. No, you're not joking. No. I think there will be. Now, whether or not these are going to be real aliens, whether or not it won't be some sort of Project Bluebeam-y type thing. I don't even know. If you guys don't know what the Project Blue Beam conspiracy theory is, which I didn't know until I dove into this.
Starting point is 01:30:33 That's basically like all the superpowers of. you know, the world. They want to fake it's like the new QAnon. They want to fake an alien invasion so they can seize power. I mean, what other power are they going to seize? I mean, everybody kind of folded over COVID and showed you
Starting point is 01:30:53 how susceptible, you know. Right. Did people learn from that? I don't know. I don't know. Because I feel like they already did that. They already did it. Just in a way. All right. I got a few other things. We got a hit as well.
Starting point is 01:31:09 La La La La La La. We've got... I'm pulling up some things here. Oh. This is this story about... I mentioned the CNN thing earlier. I almost couldn't believe this when I saw it. I don't know who this Clarissa Ward is. People keep saying that she's an actress
Starting point is 01:31:34 and I wasn't familiar with her. She's like decided to... She's a British person with C.N. CNN, I guess she was, I don't know, she started at Fox and I don't know why they say that she's like this, like an actress or something, but she's, I don't know, she's very dramatic, as you will, if you've watched any of this footage when she's gone and saved, saved this dude. So they had this segment on CNN where Closer Ward was over there in Syria and she's reporting on the collapse. of the Assad regime and, you know, all this stuff. And she saves, they save this, save this guy, who is apparently, and it was all staged. They acted like they were rescuing him from a prison. And as it turns out, he was actually an intelligence officer in the Assad regime. And I guess he was acting like,
Starting point is 01:32:42 he was a prisoner. And he was, he was acting like he had been kept prisoner. And he's really putting on this like a big show of, of being freed. And it turns out he was not only an intelligence officer with the Assad regime, but he also was one of his main torturers. Yeah. He went, the main torturers. One of the big guys that Assad used. And, They brought him out. And he's like hugging. He hugged Clerso Ward and he's acts like he's so relieved. Like I can't believe it. And they're like this poor innocent man that we've saved. We saved him from the presence. And he was just kept against his will. And he was one of the baddies. I mean, they're all baddies at this point. But he was one of like the legit baddies over there. So now CNN had to admit this was a headline. that they had. Quote, freed prisoner who said he was a victim of the Assad regime was an intelligence officer, locals say? He was actually a literal lieutenant in the Air Force Intelligence Directorate. Oh, oh, they helped free this guy. He's known for harassment and extortion and all kinds of stuff, all kinds of stuff.
Starting point is 01:34:06 you know CNN the guy who literally looked at this Syrian interrogator this baddie
Starting point is 01:34:17 and they thought he was an innocent torture victim like he's leaning on her oh my guy she's like I'm so happy
Starting point is 01:34:23 I can't believe I can barely walk someone get him a chair this poor man CNN has a member of the Assad regime that they're
Starting point is 01:34:35 state And here's the other thing. They take the guy out of the prison cell. What does she do? They sit him down and they immediately go into an interview. They weren't even, even if he wasn't a torture, they were not concerned about getting him to a hospital or anything like that. She's like, oh, no, I've got to sit you down and I have to interview you for my program.
Starting point is 01:34:54 Let's do that now. And then he acts like he's shaking and he can't eat. He was jailing people. He was torturing people. he's one of the baddies he's one of the baddie baddies and he acts like he's I just I'm just yet
Starting point is 01:35:11 but a simple man I just can't I'm just so sad I can't believe you freed me CNN you bastion of reporting the giant of international journalism can you imagine being her and then waking up after you've done like a Pulitzer level story
Starting point is 01:35:30 and this happens because you know that's what she was thinking. She was just like the way I watched this. I watched that whole thing. She's like let's get you sitting. I mean she was just but at the same time it barely masked her glee at being able to have a story like this. You know oh let's get you for an interview. They pull the guy right out of a cell. And they're like, okay, let's sit you down in a chair. Now it's time for an interview. I mean, at least she was thinking business first, I guess, you know, that's what CNN likes. And I mean, this may not be a popular opinion, but to me, she's like,
Starting point is 01:36:03 the female Charles Jaco. Don't. He's going to sue the internet again, Kane. Good luck, Charles. Do you guys know who Charles Jaco is? He is a sentient skin tag who has some hair on it and he came from St. Louis. What you said's worse than what I said. No, I mean that you said that. I was like burned. But no, I. So Charles Jaco is the sentient, he's a he's a sentient skin tag. It was the couple of stray hairs on him. And it's he, it's, he, it's,
Starting point is 01:36:33 started reporting for CNN and he apparently faked this whole report about being in Iraq or something like that and he was on a set shelled and bombed. Yeah and he acted like he was getting bombed and shelled was the worst acting I've ever seen in my life and then later this was like 13, 14 years ago
Starting point is 01:36:50 he people on the internet were making fun of him and he legit threatened to sue the entire internet and I was here because when I started on radio I started at a station in St. Louis And he used to work, it was a cluster. He used to work at one of the other stations there. And the story goes is that he would go take his coffee cup of, you know, coffee that he drank.
Starting point is 01:37:14 And to warm it up, he would go, he would pour it into the coffee pot, swirl it around and then pour it back into his mug. And he got caught like a couple of different times, according to numerous people that worked. I was only told this. I didn't say this. Other people did. And that's nasty. It's illegal, isn't it? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:37:33 I mean, this was back in like the early aught. So I don't know. I was it. I don't know. I think when he was there, it was like the late 90s. I was totally not there at that time. But he's, oh, and he was so nasty towards me. But I always felt bad for him because he was, you know, a skin tag.
Starting point is 01:37:47 And, you know, I don't know what kind of future they have. So sad. But yeah, she reminds me of him. They have the same look in their eyeballs. They have the same work ethic it appears. And people were. respond to them the same way. And I've seen all these videos on Ms. Ward getting approached by different nationalities, different people, just scolding her over their misrepresentation and
Starting point is 01:38:15 reporting. Yeah, the guy was like, I'm a civilian. And he was like, my captors have beaten me. And you could just see she, the look on her face, she was trying to hide it like, this is too good to be true. And as it turned out, then there was a news outlet that published a photo of this guy. He gave her a fake name and everything. He said his name was Adele Gerba. That, that dude does not even exist. They found out that he is first lieutenant Salama Muhammad Salama of the Air Force Intelligence Directorate,
Starting point is 01:38:45 literally the agency that runs the prison. He runs the prison. She thought she was getting, this poor victim, instead she got literally the guy who was running the prison. And what gets me is that they didn't even bother verifying anything. They're like, oh, let's take this man out of,
Starting point is 01:39:00 let's take this man and put him in a chat interview him immediately got to have the exclusive you notice something about him in slack what did you say in slack about him oh yeah that he was perfectly manicured and he wasn't dirty that jacket looked pretty all right yeah he didn't look like he was starved or nothing either you know like a prisoner would want to look like prisoner would look like yeah so and people were saying that they did not trust her story and and there were apparently even some syrians there like what's you doing what what what you're doing what what what What? This is, no, this is not how you do the journalism. Not. And they said, it came to your point. They said he was too well groomed and did not act like someone who was locked in a dungeon for three months. And that is per number of people on. Fairify Sy. That's why I have to wonder, because Charles Jaco was with CNN back in the late 80s, early 90s. And so now we have Clare Sir Ward, CNN, all about faking wartime stories around. times of tension. Is that intentional by CNN for decades now? That just seems weird. It's a good point that you make. I don't know. I'm just saying him. But I don't think she's going to get that peel with her though. No, I don't think she, because it's too bad. It's too bad. I mean, it is really embarrassing. It's just really not great for her. On the go and need a quick news fix with a fun twist.

Starting point is 01:40:30 busy schedule on Apple or wherever you get your podcast. I was reading this debrief from Kamala Harris's deputy campaign manager. I think it was semaphore that had it. And they said that Rob Flaherty had, after she became the nominee, he turned his attention to sports. They needed to introduce Harris quickly to people who aren't obsessed with politics. And they said sports is perhaps America's last remaining monoculture. And they decided to book her on all these sports shows and podcasts.
Starting point is 01:40:59 but everybody began turning her down. Like everyone, they were very polite, but they all turned her down. And they said sports and culture have sort of merged together. And they become sort of natively associated with a Trump conservative set values. And it said it complicated. It got more complicated for athletes to come out in favor of us, he said. He goes, because they didn't want to do politics. I don't think that's fascinating in terms of the guy, Flaherty said it was fascinating
Starting point is 01:41:26 that they were rejecting it. No, it's not. They were being smart about it. I mean, you're a pretty bad deputy campaign manager. If you can't read the tea leaves on that one. Good heavens. All right, Kaine, today, and stupidity. All right, it is our current vice president.
Starting point is 01:41:38 Is she doing anything now that she lost the election? I mean, she's still vice president, right? Yeah. This is Kamala Harris. Maybe you can understand what she's saying here. Let's hear this. And I ask you to remember. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:41:50 The context in which you exist. All right. Yeah, I did that. What? Uh-huh. I think she's drank every day since November 5th. Mm-hmm. I don't think that she's already drunk on eggnog.
Starting point is 01:42:09 I mean, most of you all wait till Christmas Eve, but she's already there. She won't be sober until 2020. Van Diagram. I don't know. That does it for us today, folks.
