Starting point is 00:00:00 Some senators who were in that briefing describing your operation variously is that you're winging it, there's no plan for Venezuela going forward. Yeah, they're going to say it. I used to be a senator too. That's what you always say when it's the other party. The bottom line is we've gone into great detail with them about the planning. We've described it's him. In fact, it's not just winging it.
Starting point is 00:00:19 It's not just saying or speculating it's going to happen. It's already happening. Like the oil arrangement that we've made with Peta Vesa on their sanctioned oil that they can't move. Understand they are not generating any revenue from their oil right now. from their oil right now. They can't move it unless we allow it to move because we have sanctions because we're enforcing those sanctions. This is tremendous leverage. We are exercising it in a positive way. The president described it last night. Secretary will write, we'll have more to say on it today, who is involved in running this portfolio. And we feel very positive that
Starting point is 00:00:46 not only will that generate revenue that will be used to the benefit of the Venezuelan people and we're insured that that's what the case is, but it also gives us an amount of leverage and influence and control over how this process moves over. And that's kind of the big question. question is the what happens after and how the administration, how that's going to be handled. Because as you've seen it, we're going to unpack, I almost said dissect, but that doesn't make sense, that what we're going to unpack is who the, the, or I don't want to say order of succession either, because it almost sounds like I'm giving legitimacy to Maduro because he wasn't elected, but whoever's going to be in charge after him and how that arrangement,
Starting point is 00:01:26 what that arrangement is going to look like. Because yesterday, I think it was, it was in the evening. It was like, I mean, well after we were off air, when the requirements, when POTUS issued those requirements for what looks like the next leader apparent, and that's a whole other bag of rats. I don't know how, don't really know how to describe that. That's a whole other bag of rats. but my point is that he had issued kind of these ultimatums like okay for this to work out this way and for us to essentially you know support your ascension to leadership this is what's going to have to happen and he had a lot of pretty serious requirements listed in that which we're going to break down
Starting point is 00:02:20 we're also going to break down China's latest reaction because China is You know, they had their first initial reaction, but now they're getting super angry. And we're going to have all of that latest as well with that and break all of that down. So welcome to the show.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Dana Lash with you in this very psychotic weather, Texas, in Texas, I don't even, what the hell. It's January. Stop saying that. I need it to either be cold or not be cold. All of my cold stuff is packed away. Make up your mind, Texas. So,
Starting point is 00:02:56 how is this going to all pan out? And it is, and I do get it. It's a little, there's some things that don't make sense, but I think that it's all about this, you know, geopolitical 1,000, you know, 30,000 feet in the air kind of view. And we're going to get into all of that. I have some of it. If you sign up for the newsletter, you should have some of this already in your prep email that you get every single morning. So make sure you go over to substack, get that. All right. So first and foremost, this issue and I'm pulling up my notes on my giant again for those of you who are new to the show this isn't fox okay I don't have I'm not like some of these other dilly barheaded podcasters out there who have to read words that other people they hire write for them and load them into a prompter we've been doing this since 2008 it's off the cuff that's how it is so don't expect me to stare into your eyes lovingly for three hours because I have a four and a half foot wide gaming screen in front of me that has all of my necessary materials that we use to you know, chill and hang out and toss up and discuss during the show. So I say that because I
Starting point is 00:04:01 always get somebody new who doesn't understand how this works. The Delci, I'm just calling it the Delci deal. I don't know what else to call it. That's just the, the Delcy requirement, the, I don't know. So this came out yesterday. He told Venezuela's interim president Delsey Rodriguez that she has to meet U.S. demands before being allowed to pump more oil. And those demands include they got to kick out China, Russia, Iran, and Cuba, and sever economic ties. And then that's the first. Second is that Venezuela must agree to partner exclusively with the United States on oil production and favor America when selling heavy crude. Now, we talked about this yesterday, and it is kind of important because the crude that they have is like, and I was talking to somebody in oil and gas,
Starting point is 00:04:53 And I said, talk to me, explain this to me like I'm 15. And they said, well, it's a very sludgy type of crude. It's heavier. It's the way that I understand it is the difference between like a Gennett, a thick Gennis. Like, think about beer, right? Like a thick, dark Guinness. And then a Pilsner maybe. I don't know, right?
Starting point is 00:05:14 It's kind of, right? When you say that I came, that's, yeah, I feel like that's a fair. It's sludgier. the extraction in the area, the reserve, excuse me, that all of this is in, is called the Orinoco belt. Sidebar, and you wrote a song about the whole area. Everybody knows Orinoco flow. And if you don't, you do, but you think you don't. Everybody knows it. Anyway, so it's a little tricky to extract from that area and because of the type of sludgy or heavier, I'm going to just, I'm going to make this kind of an adjective. Viscisier. We're going to, we're making that a word now. Visciscus,
Starting point is 00:05:55 but viscice er than other crude. So it's a little more difficult to extract. The United States can do it. Venezuela has means to do it, but they could do a heck of a lot more. But, you know, the ideology, the fighting, the control, the dictators make it a little bit, make it a little difficult, right? so it's an important type of crude China was the top importer as we explained yesterday so now what Trump is doing is he's getting in there he is uh and Juan
Starting point is 00:06:27 thank you Juan says I'm better at explaining beer than football this is a thousand percent correct there's no there are no lies detected I'll be the first person to tell you this so this yeah it's like the difference between like a Guinness and like a lighter beer it's just a it has different purposes widely
Starting point is 00:06:45 needed purposes. And so to that point, now that China's not able to get it anymore, the United States wants it, they also are telling, and I had this story yesterday, but there's more to it today. They're telling these oil companies out there, all right, so this is, if you're wanting to be able to not only recoup what was taken from you, and remember, that's a big deal, to recoup what was taken from them because you had going back all the way into the 70s when the first moves towards nationalization began. And some of the bigger ones came after Perez and it came under Chavez actually with one of the big ones. I think it was Conoco Phillips in 1992. Not every American company was able to recoup everything. In fact, there was no American company that was
Starting point is 00:07:38 able to recoup all of their investment because they helped build the infrastructure. they, I mean, they brought the equipment. They didn't just bring in the labor and train the labor. They brought in the equipment. They built what was necessary in order to carry out the extraction process. They helped expand refinement. They did all of this stuff. And this was all American dollars that were going into it. And then you had Venezuelan government that seized it. They didn't just claim part ownership. They claimed all ownership. And a lot of these companies were told, if you want to, you're going to have to just go along with this or get out. And you're not going to be able to take your stuff with you. So a lot of them, I mean, they just, they ended up leaving. They just, they left. There hasn't been a single oil or gas company that has recouped 100% of what it invested. I would say, I mean, just looking at everything that I've read, I mean, I would say they didn't, they didn't even get back like 10%. They were going to, these courts and all this other stuff, these international courts that will say, oh yeah, they were wrong. They shouldn't have stolen your stuff. But how do you, how do you hold a dictator accountable? Do you see what I'm
Starting point is 00:08:41 saying this is where I'm like when all these people bitch and moan about the international rules the uh rules bid the the order of international rules whenever they sit here and talk about this the rules based international order blank that absolutely blank it into a hole in the ground you know why because it's non-existent that is a stupid phrase that's always leveraged against a more powerful countries when smaller uh hellhole countries want to do hood rat stuff and they don't want to be held accountable that's that's the that's the real lesson of of it. There's no such thing as a rules-based order. If there's a rules-based order, you wouldn't have had these dictatorial governments seize our assets in the first place. You wouldn't
Starting point is 00:09:21 have them starving their people. You wouldn't have China doing what it's doing in the South Sea. If we had an international rules-based order, there would be no worry about China and Taiwan. Now there's definitely no worry. We'll talk more about that. But there would definitely, there would be no worry about that in the South Sea. You wouldn't see Russia doing what they were doing in Ukraine. You wouldn't see half of the stuff that you're seeing. So screw this whole idea of the imaginary Lewis Carroll-esque rules-based international order. It is non-existent. Only fools believe in fairy tales like this.
Starting point is 00:09:55 So, and it's a real, this is, it's a real issue. And so now what Trump is telling these companies, you're going in, you are going to partner with the government because the goal is not to take over the oil. And I know that some people are saying, well, Trump said Trump is talking. Trump is doing what Trump does. But that's not what the goal is. The goal is to get back our property. Sure. And I'm totally fine with that. But also, they want to make sure that we have a good partner there. We have a good partner. We're going to be able to work with them. But even more importantly, we're going to keep out the commies. We're keeping out China and Russia and Iran. And we have every right to do that because it's our hemisphere. If you dislike that, screw off that this is we want it by conquest and just by being the biggest and baddest and you know what the world is better for it because we like liberty we like liberty whenever anyone says how do you can't say it's our hemisphere like hell i can't i absolutely can it is our hemisphere and we are the best people to say that because we're the people who want to leave people alone just leave us alone first and we'll leave you alone that's how it works so i'm completely fine with this and everyone else
Starting point is 00:11:08 be as well. So this, I saw this like, for instance, someone, I can't, it was an aid to some Democrats saying, oh, well, it's not our oil. Why do Americans think we have the right to steal other countries' resources? The woman, by the way, who said this, works for Illinois Marr. She ran her campaign in Minnesota. She was also with the state executive committee of the Minnesota Democrats. and I just found that incredibly
Starting point is 00:11:36 hypocritical, ironic that she said this. She worked for Illinois Mar, who received vast sums of donations from criminal Minnesota-Somali diaspora that defrauded millions of American taxpayers. And I told her, I said, well, why don't you try asking that question
Starting point is 00:11:54 again while realizing how idiotic your hypocrisy makes you sound? No, it is. The oil that we spent money on to extract, yes, we do have a claim to a portion of it because we were the people who built the ability to extract it with Venezuela. Now, we want our old partners back. And something else, talking about the legality of this, you realize, too, that I think the last election that was held and, you know,
Starting point is 00:12:25 Maduro would not give up control after he lost this election. The individual where he lost it two Gonzalez. Gonzalez is fine with everything that's been happening. He's also signaled that he's great with having this be a partnership with the United States. That's the guy who actually won. The election was in July of 2024 and Maduro absolutely refused to relinquish control. He absolutely would not. He tried to create this. Remember he tried to have this like super cringe illegitimate inauguration and people started protesting so they started rounding people up again. Yeah. So the, we're going to talk about what comes next because there's been a criticism of Trump going with this Delci Rodriguez because she is somebody who is a Majura loyalist. Is she, though?
Starting point is 00:13:17 And there, this is where geopolitics gets uncomfortable. You're never going to be able to get everything that you want. So you have to figure out the best way to mitigate risk and what is the easiest way through. That means we're reserving our blood and treasure, but also we, we will. We, want the best outcome, meaning we want a healthy partner. We want a healthy neighbor, a sovereign neighbor. That's what we want. We're going to talk about that coming up. We're also going to dive into some of the latest. The hearings are going on right now with the Minnesota fraud. The questions have been entirely interesting. We're going to dive into all of that. Trump also rescinded the Biden child care funding loophole. Did you guys know that under Biden and Harris,
Starting point is 00:13:56 they were giving just millions of dollars out to these fake daycares without actually verifying them? you can't even go and adopt a shelter dog without going through a process of verification. It was stricter than what this was. And I'm not exaggerating. We're going to talk about all of that and tons more. We have a packed show for you today as we move.

Starting point is 00:15:54 All right, so we've got a couple of things. Oh, I'm going to get to the tiny house thing, faux show. This headline, though, Tennessee University has reinstated a professor that was fired over a Charlie Kirk post. They're going to pay him half a million dollars. He had a social media post, Darren Michael, and this was in Clarksville. They're reabursing him for therapeutic counseling services, and they said that they didn't follow the termination process. he posted what they said was insensitive content and he was basically the guy was making fun of Charlie Kirk
Starting point is 00:16:32 for being shot in the throat because he supported the Second Amendment and he was saying how he was being a jack wagon and they didn't apparently follow the proper termination process which I think is stupid so now this guy's $500,000 richer but I hope he can't get a job anywhere else because he just is not a basic human, decent human being and I'm fine with saying that. I'm so tired of tolerating these people.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Let's see, tiny houses. This is garbage communist slop. They said, why smaller houses can lead to happier lives. Go and join your fat-loaded worm food friend, Carl Mark, six feet under. Whoever wrote this stupid, idiotic, I'm coming back to this, because I have a theory that the small house promotion is all about communism. I'm positive. I robbed you a little bit, but I went really long that last segment.

Your fast, funny, and informative news companion for those always on the move. on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts. To lawmakers, does the U.S. intent to buy Greenland? Does the U.S. intent to buy Greenland? Can you clarify your comments to lawmakers this week? Well, that's always been the president's intent from the very beginning. He said it very early on. I mean, this is not new. He talked about it in his first term, and he's not the first U.S. president that has examined or looked at how could we acquire Greenland. There's an interest there.
Starting point is 00:19:14 But so I just reminded them of the fact that not only did Truman want to do it, but President Trump's been talking about this. since. Yeah, first off, I can't even believe we're talking about Greenland, but I can and a little, I go both, I go, there's a couple ways I go with us. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. We are at the, oh my gosh, we're at the bottom of the first hour. I kept thinking, it's just right before headlines. I have no idea what's happening. It's all just too crazy. Good to be with you. Don't forget chats at Rumble, and then we got Channel 347 DirecTV, but really YouTube's where it's at. So check it out. The subject of Greenland. How many people really know a lot about Greenland? Anybody? It's green? Kind of, not really.
Starting point is 00:19:58 There were Vikings there? Yes, there were some Vikings there at one point. It's Denmark's. Well, they like to say it is, yes. I just, can I, I don't know, I just want to give you a perspective so you don't think I'm a troll. Whenever I take a break, I come back really mean. Because I'm very rusted. That's my natural state in a happy way, like a happy mean, right? I think that I'm really tired of the United States being treated like it's not the superpower that it is. It's the respect. I'm like Rodney Dangerfield. I get no respect, right? The U.S. doesn't get any respect. Come on. So I'm not saying that this is performative in a way to solicit that. But what I am saying is it isn't just trolling why the administration's talking about
Starting point is 00:20:55 Greenland. Let me ask you a question. Why is it that every other sovereign country on the planet can go and colonize for minerals except the United States? Think about that. Don't tell me that it's not happening because it is. That's why we're talking about Greenland. Why do you think everybody's talking about Greenland? Greenland is the best way I can describe it. It's kind of like in terms of importance, the Arctic Panama. Think about it like that. It really is. I think it's a fair assessment. It is a fair assessment. I mean, of course there's tons of minerals. Tons of minerals up there. But also, it's just, it's very important, it is a very important strategically in terms of
Starting point is 00:21:52 its location. And it gives you leverage over, it gives you additional leverage over that hemisphere. It gives the United States leverage over Arctic security. It gives the United States leverage over rare earth. it gives the United States over global shipping lanes in this region, over missile defense. There are a lot of things, a lot of reasons as to why Greenland is important. And when you look at it that way, you're looking at it, this is about geopolitical control. It is about securing the United States. I get it.
Starting point is 00:22:41 everybody wants to say it's so mean well the problem with saying that everything is mean and that the united states is trolling is that you're excusing the behavior of everybody every other country uh this is it's a it's a it's a area of great importance now i don't think that trump is talking about waging war he's not talking about attacking greenland he's just i think he's talking about kind of acquiring it like me how many people are there came what 50,000 what's a good question what if you gave 50,000 people a million dollars each to sell their country to greenland pretty sure that would be a nice buy wouldn't it think about it 50,000 how many 56 to 57,000 people okay well let's look at this let's look at this way all the minerals the importance in the hemisphere and I'm just
Starting point is 00:23:33 spitballing here what if you gave hey everybody will give you a million dollars and you bet you got to be the United States is territory. It's going to be our territory now. It's going to be more than, what is Denmark going to do? What is, by the way, I do appreciate reading about the sort of affairs of their monarchy.
Starting point is 00:23:51 But what is, Demark's tired. They can't do anything. Long gone are the days of Leif Erickson and that kind of, that kind of adventuring. No, Denmark's not going to, and I'm not saying that we do that. I'm not saying that we go, I'm just spitballing.
Starting point is 00:24:04 But I think it's. A $56 billion. dollar investment. Literally less than what Obamacare's website costs. That's true. And you get control over this part of the hemisphere. You can control over shipping. You get the rare earths, missile control,
Starting point is 00:24:18 all of that stuff. I just said rare earths. We're going to ignore that. But you get control of all of that. I'm just spitball in here. I'm just saying. Denmark is tired. Denmark doesn't have, even if the United States wanted to do anything, Denmark's not going to be able to do anything. But what's more, they go, you're attacking
Starting point is 00:24:34 NATO. Don't we have that? don't we have that sound by, well, maybe we don't. We don't necessarily need it. But they had one of their Danish leaders saying, well, you're attacking, you're, you would be attacking and breaking up NATO. Who do you think NATO is? NATO wouldn't exist if it wasn't for the United States. NATO is the United States. The majority of the fighting force is the United States. The majority of the funding is the United States. The majority of the equipment is the United States. The majority of the equipment is the United States. The majority of the ammunition is the United States. What are you talking about? Who the hell do you think NATO is? We have been wiping the ass of the world for a
Starting point is 00:25:17 century now. Give us some respect. As much respect as you give China as they go out with their imperialistic expansion, as you give to Russia, as they try to grab land, as you give to Iran, give the United States, which has kept you fat and happy in your ivory towers for however many decades, give the United States just a little bit of the respect that we are due. That's all I'm saying. Very simple. It is the Arctic Panama. Now, the issues, and I get it, I mean, it's, to me, I think it would, some people look at it like they would look at Alaska, Seward's Folly. But it is strategically important. However, that comes out, I'm not really opposed. But I don't think anybody's talking about conflict. I think that's just fearmongering on behalf of, you know, people who don't like change.
Starting point is 00:26:20 I don't think that anyone in that hemisphere gets to tell us what we can or can do. Like how everybody's trying to tell us as to what to do as it relates to Venezuela, which we're going to talk more about here shortly. I wanted to pull this up. The Mandani effect. I want to talk about this real quick because now I saw this ad. I'm pulling this ad up. It's a campaign ad for a candidate running for Congress in Utah. I'm a little hesitant as to whether, I mean, I want to play it because it looks so dumb, but also I don't want to give this person any attention. But this this Mamdani effect, I have it listed on my rundown. as socialist sloppulism, because that's what it is.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Did you see this ad cane? Let's play it for the people. This is a weird, it's a weird ad, but I think now you're going to start seeing all of these little socialist candidates try to vie for office. Watch this ad. Lebanon, Mohammed, for Congress. Utah leaves the nation in charitable giving. Yeah, our leaders take us for granted. For far too many Utah, the American dream is slipping away.
Starting point is 00:27:38 Corporations are pricing us out of our own homes. Raising a family is more expensive than ever. And even though we spend more money on health care than any nation on earth, nearly 300,000 Utahans are left without health coverage. But together, we can change this. I think he needs to- That's why I'm running for Congress. We will fight for universal child care.
Starting point is 00:28:01 So no parent has to choose between their child. Okay, so this guy's an anchor baby. His parents were from Somalia. And he's a Somali anchor baby. No, I don't want him anywhere. I don't think that if you're an anchor baby, I think you should be disqualified for office. You should be.
Starting point is 00:28:17 If your parents birthed you here in the United States to try to gain taxpayer dollars and get a foothold in the country, no. Nope. Go back and make Somali great again. Or great. but not here. And I just really think that after everything that we've been seen in Minnesota and Ohio and Vermont and Texas and New Hampshire and where else Kane, oh my gosh, it's everywhere.
Starting point is 00:28:41 No, this is not the time. But where do these stooges come from? This is all socialist sloppelism. That's all it is. I'm someone who's barely old enough to drink. I don't have any life experience. And I'm going to sit here and tell you guys how to live your lives. I have no concept of the rich heritage of America.
Starting point is 00:28:59 have no concept of American history. But I'm going to sit here and I'm going to lecture everyone and tell you exactly what to do with your lives, with your money, et cetera, in your state. I'm just really getting a bad taste in my mouth from all of this stuff. And I feel like that that's a completely understandable reaction to that. So this is like, we're going to start seeing this over and over and over and over again. His, did you guys hear about the lady, how do you say her name? Cia? C-E-A C-A-Weaver.
Starting point is 00:29:33 She's the lady who was saying that home ownership was a weapon of white supremacy, and then it found out that she lives in this like nearly $2 million house in Nashville, Tennessee. She has like an almost $2 million house in Nashville, Tennessee.
Starting point is 00:29:50 Yeah, yeah, yeah. But she thinks that, and she is white, so I guess you know that maybe that is something. She says that homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy. Well, now the media busted her and all these photos of her crying all the time. They asked her, they caught her in New York as she was walking back to her rich Crown Heights neighborhood home. And she cried the whole way, cried when she got inside. That's what happens when you buy the ticket for a ride you didn't really want to take. But you got to take it. Yeah, she has a really, by the way,
Starting point is 00:30:20 Nashville property is insane. I'm sorry, but her house, that house is not. It's almost a $1.7 million. home. That is not a $1.7 million house. That is, that is dumb. Oh my gosh. I wouldn't pay $1.7 million for this. I think if you're a lawmaker and it was discovered that you paid $1.7 million for the home that's pictured, the home that she got in Nashville, I think your stupidity immediately, immediately cancels your chances of ever holding elected office again. I cannot believe the price of this house came. Property and national. Asheville is outrageous. This is crazy. So yeah, and she also, she's one of those who believes in canceling rent. Cane what, what the, you can't cancel rent. Are you going to ask the person who owns the property, do they get their taxes canceled? What about their utilities? What about their water and their trash? Does all that get canceled? Oh, it doesn't? Then you don't get rent canceled, you welfare queen. You don't get free housing. Pay for your fat, bad. side yourself. This is crazy. I'm so tired of this stuff. I cannot believe that house. It's basically
Starting point is 00:31:33 like a tiny little gingerbread box that they painted white. It looks horrible. Why people paint their houses white and when you've got brick or stone, stop it. It looks awful. It's an ugly house. We have a lot more on the way, including the whole issue with the debt in Venezuela. Who's taking over? Why is it Delsey Rodriguez? Why? We'll explain. We're going to get into all of that and more as we move. The people who make those heart chews that I always talk about now they have the turmeric juice. It's great if you're dealing with inflammation. It's a little starburst chew. I mean, it's not like exactly a starburst chew, but it tastes butter, I think. No added sugar at all either. But turmeric, the turmeric curcumin complex that they develop, it's a higher
Starting point is 00:32:13 standard of turmeric that makes it more highly absorbable by the body. And so you're going to get the full serving of this. And you're going to see the change as well. Great tasting, easy to take, standout form of turmeric, kick off the new year with something simple and delicious. The turmeric chews are a great addition to that routine, and you can find humans' turmeric chews at Sam's Club from the same people who make the Superbeats Heart Shoes. Get your package today.

Oh, my God her, and guide her through the night with the light from above, from the mountains, to the prairie, somebody's holding layers on the oceans, white with foam. So these were the Democrats who decided to have a candlelit ceremony on the steps of the Capitol. I didn't talk about J6 at all yesterday on purpose. on purpose because I don't G.A.F. I don't care. I'm so tired of this. I said this on Jesse Waters last
Starting point is 00:33:31 night. The left literally leading up to J6, the left literally set a church on fire near the White House. And this was after two summers in a row of burning and looting cities across America. Now, we were live on air when J6 happened. I don't like the small percentage of people that engaged in destruction and they got what was coming to them. But you can't. sit here and tell me that Democrats did not take this, abuse this, and go after everybody. I know people, I personally in real life, not online, I know actual people who weren't even there who had the FBI visit them. That is a fact. I know a person in real life who worked in D.C. and wasn't there. And they were trying to push and make this individual claim that
Starting point is 00:34:20 that they were at the Capitol when they actually weren't. They were eight blocks away working. I know so many people in real life that had nothing to do with it that were being targeted because they were conservative or because they had dealings with the Trump campaign. That's a fact. So you can't sit here and tell me that Democrats did not take this and use this as an excuse to widen their bully campaign against anybody that worked on the Trump campaign or voted for Trump. That's what all of that was.
Starting point is 00:34:47 The only person that was shot. And I said this on Waters, it's an officer involved shooting that the left actually loves was Ashley Babbitt. Ashley Babbitt was shot and killed by a Dippy police officer with Capitol Police who had no idea that a whole SWAT team was standing literally right behind her, not more than three feet away. He had no idea what his target was, and he had no idea what was behind his target, which is the golden rule of firearms. And he just shot through a door and he killed her. She was unarmed. killed her. And no, I don't believe that they were going to commit violence upon anybody. I don't. I don't. I actually don't. All these people who fomented the violence and the bloodthirstiness and the fires and the murders and all of these riots that took place, and there were, all of these rights that took place two summers in a row, want to act like what they saw there and the Capitol was terrifying. I have friends that were in the White House press corps that were in the chamber when it happened. And they said, well, it was loud, but we weren't afraid. That's a verbatim quote from a dear friend of mine that I've
Starting point is 00:35:51 known for about 20 years who works in the White House press corps and who is there right there and saw actually and also witness the shooting. So all of it. So I'm not hearing this from Democrats using this as an excuse to justify the violence that they wish that they could enact every single day. Second hour on the way, stick with us. Folks who'll bring you the program, it's burn a gun. Burn a gun is a great, it's a way to diversify. justify what you carry because look you're not always able to carry everywhere you go now everywhere i can go i try i i always carry but there are some places where in fact there are a couple of places you know if you go into uh you know if you're at schools obviously because it's been a federal law for
Starting point is 00:36:31 over 30 years now private property municipal restrictions you might be barred from carrying but you still want to be able to protect yourself and it's always like the most highest crime places that always pass these ridiculous laws so what are you going to do to protect yourself if you cannot carry if you're denied your Second Amendment right? Well, maybe you should check out a burn a gun. It's the burn a CL. This is the one I would recommend to you. It's a compact launcher. It's roughly comparable to the size of your iPhone. I'm not going to say it's the size of the iPhone, but it's very close to being the size of the iPhone. It shoots chemical origin projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away. Stung guns have like maybe one or two rounds. This has a 15
Starting point is 00:37:07 shot capacity with its cartridge. And you can choose different rounds. You've got different accessories. But it makes it to where you're still able to protect yourself. And here's the big thing. There's no permits, no background checks. It does not care about gun-free zone signs. There's no waiting period. You literally order it online. It shows up on your front porch.
Starting point is 00:37:25 Visit burna.com and get your Burna-C-L, which stands for a compact launcher today. B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Dana, ready when you are. Look, what Donald Trump tweeted the other night, put the Hortman children's at risk, they have to look at security, put my family at risk again. What he's doing to the Somali community is absolutely unconscionable. And at some point in time, this is about, I don't know what it is. Whatever it is, I bug the crap out of Donald Trump. I would argue it is because I believe in public service.
Starting point is 00:37:58 I've not enriched myself in office. I treat people with dignity. I agree to compromise with people. And the attacks on Minnesota are far beyond me, and it's hurting Minnesota. So Tim Walz, who think somehow that, I don't know, what he's doing to the Somali community is unconscionable. What about what the Somali community, Kane, is doing to everybody else in Minnesota and elsewhere, Somali diaspora. I read it where it's over 94% of everybody who's been so far arrested in all of this is their Somali. Cane, is that number, does that number signify a majority?
Starting point is 00:38:46 I think what did you say the number was? Over 94%. Yeah, that would be definitely, definitely a majority. Okay. Yeah, a 94%. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. A lot of things that we're watching, including a woman tried to run over ice agents with her vehicle, and she got shot for it.
Starting point is 00:39:05 And this was in Minneapolis, little Mogadishu, and now this is all breaking open and we're following all of this and there's a couple of different videos of it happening but they she's a violent rioter and she apparently decided she was going to try over
Starting point is 00:39:24 try to run over ice agents which if you're going after ice agents like if you're trying to kill federal I mean that's murderous and so she's dead because she got shot as a result of trying to run over ICE agents and kill them. So now she's dead. She was shot and struck
Starting point is 00:39:45 and she did hurt some of these officers and they're expected to recover according to officials because she hit them with her car. And they were conducting their operation. Protesters began blocking officers. They started rioting and the now it's it's a big deal. The problem with stuff like this too. This is exactly why Trump was sending agents out because you had these people who were getting involved in trying to obstruct, which is the word I'm looking for, obstruct their job, obstruct the process of removing people who are here illegally. And this, yeah, you can't be running people over with your car. That's assault with a death. deadly weapon at best. That's absolutely assault with a deadly weapon. So we're going to give you
Starting point is 00:40:40 updates on this because I'm sure at some point we're going to have. I mean, this is all just happening. It's all unfolding now. Now, to this point, going back to Governor Tim Wals, so as you know, he is not, he was going to run for Congress, not going to happen. He's going to stay as governor. I think Amy Klobuchar is actually preparing for a gubernator. editorial run. That's what it looks like. She'll win. I mean, she will be the next governor. But he's mad. He's mad because his career's over and it's a sputtering mess. Listen to what he says here. This is cut nine. Listen. Their idea of improving this state is being a parrot for Donald Trump agreeing to everything that he agreed with. Well, here's what I'm going to tell you. It ain't happening.
Starting point is 00:41:29 I'm not going anywhere. And you can make all your requests for me to resign over my dead body. Will that happen. I will fight this thing till the very end to make this state better. And the question that I think they need to decide is, is when did the guy in the White House resign? When does he take accountability for what he did? Because it isn't going to happen here in terms of us shying away from making this. What the hell is even, so he was asked if he was going to resign as governor because he handled this whole thing with the Minnesota frauds, like so disastrously. And that was his response. All he can do is, but, but Trump. But, but, but, but, but, But there were, let me pull the story up.
Starting point is 00:42:07 His office was fabricating records. They were fabricating records. The Minnesota auditor dropped a report confirming Tim Walts's Department of Human Services literally fabricated records. They did not verify a single grant recipient. You were wondering how all of this was happening with the fraud, et cetera. They did not at all whatsoever verify a single grant recipient. single grant recipient.
Starting point is 00:42:38 And then the managers within the Department of Human Services, Tim Walts's Department of Human Services, they tried to cover their tracks, they created new documents and backdated old ones. They actively worked to hide how they were defrauding everybody of billions of dollars. So, for instance, they gave one example, because they were. sending millions and millions and millions of dollars. I'm sick reading this. I'm sick reading it. The amount of money that's mentioned in here, I am actually physically ill. One of the examples, they found a grant recipient who was paid nearly $700,000 for one month of work, one
Starting point is 00:43:26 month of work, without any info on what it was that they actually do. One, that's one example, one example. And they said that there was another manager who got paid, and this was, this was a one-month payment. So when I say one-month payment, I don't mean a one-time payment. I mean, that's what they got paid for that month. So you know they got paid more. they got paid over, well, it was almost $400,000, $375,000.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Then they left DHS a couple of days later, and they basically worked within DHS to pay themselves. While they were working at DHS, they were helping enable this fraud. They paid themselves through this fraud. Then they left DHS and became a paid consultant for the fake company that was doing the defrauding. I am speechless. They created new documents to cover their tracks, and they backdated tons of others. And there's receipts galore. So they were actively working to defraud all of the taxpayers, period.
Starting point is 00:44:45 And Tim Walsh gets out there and tries to run his mouth about Trump. What the hell did Trump have to do with us? I mean, it's rhetorical. The answer is not a damn thing. I it's insane I don't and then listen to this this is a cut 11 one of these oh hi this is in Ohio
Starting point is 00:45:06 so it's not just in Minnesota this is everywhere this is a Somali daycare worker in Ohio who lost their mind on a journalist that walked inside to ask where to sign up watch this get back come back
Starting point is 00:45:23 Get back! Don't touch me! Get back! Don't touch me! Get back! Get back. Get back. Go.
Starting point is 00:45:31 Go. We know the police. Wait, wait. Don't call me. Do you see that? Yeah. They're in the parking lot. No cars on the parking lot.
Starting point is 00:45:43 All right. So, Eric, what just happened? He just freaking pushed me. I just walked in there and he just started pushing me and screaming, get back. Call him police. As you, can see, folks, we had, all we did was go in. We were going to ask some questions. And we were attacked here at Jabba Daycare, 614-269-7042. Wow. Right here in Columbus, all we did was walk in the
Starting point is 00:46:07 door. Looks like there's really happening with a lot of kids there, doesn't it? Oh, man. How do you not verify this? So they, I was reading, and I didn't know all of this, I was reading up, like, if you're going to be a daycare facility, you have to meet, you have to have like all of these different requirements that are met. You have to have outside facilities, et cetera, et cetera. All of the aerial shots. Now, I don't know about Ohio, although I think this facility I read did not meet the requirements either.
Starting point is 00:46:31 But in Minnesota, all of the fake daycare or sorry, layering centers, none of them met the requirements. They didn't have outdoor play areas. There were a number of things that they didn't have, the proper restroom facilities. How do you not check that? How do you not check that? Do you realize that they do more when you go to, when you go to, when you, go to try to get a dog from a rescue, you are vetted more thoroughly than this.
Starting point is 00:46:57 This is insane. For all of the stupid comparisons that the left makes, like, I wish that, you know, my vagina had as many rights as guns do and all that stupid stuff, this is one where it actually rings true, where you, I mean, it's literally harder to get a dog from a rescue than it is to get a million dollars to run a fake daycare in Minnesota. That is true. I this again so also in
Starting point is 00:47:21 Ohio this Somali Research Center this is cut 12 if you're a research center and you get millions and millions of dollars of taxpayer dollars with nothing no vetting
Starting point is 00:47:37 what would you expect to find when you walk in if you're going into a research center that's receiving millions of dollars taxpayer money what are you expecting to see Kim, what are you expecting to see when you walk into that? Well, depending what the business is, I would say them operating their business, number one, with their customers and their product and their essential workflow right there in front of us for everyone to see.
Starting point is 00:48:01 You're going to be able to see. There's going to be, I mean, it's going to look like they're researching something, right? It's going to be, you're getting, I mean, multi-million dollars. Millions. I didn't say like a million, millions of dollars. This is cut 12. This is what this journalist found. at this Somali Research Center.
Starting point is 00:48:19 Watch or listen. All right, guys, so we are here. We found it. Finally, all day long, the Somali Education Resource Center. Sweet 301 here at 299 East Granville Road in Dublin, Ohio. Now, the deal is $14 million into this center here. This is a single office. And by the way, there's nothing inside it.
Starting point is 00:48:37 We've already looked. It is very, very, very much dark, and it looks like there's maybe a couch inside. So not anything here. Very nice security system, which I found very strange. So I assume that they probably have now taken our video and everything of us standing out here. But there is nothing here. And again, where's the money? That's the real question.
Starting point is 00:48:55 Where is the money? Because the organization is supposedly $42 million of the past few years in taxpayer funding. And we have no access and we have no idea where it is. So we're just trying to ask some questions here and we have yet to find anything at all. So we're going to keep looking, guys. But this is what we found so. Wow. I am I'm a couch inside do you know that when you go for certain groups that are tax exempt and I know this because when Andrew Breitbart was alive we ambushed media matters in DC their headquarters and demanded to see their 990 a form 990 is what they have to it's like this IRS determination letter that they have to keep and it has a
Starting point is 00:49:41 all their information, et cetera, and you're supposed to be able to produce that if asked. If you're structured, if you have a tax exempt structure that requires it, like media matters. So we busted into media matters one day. Walked right in, you know, because the tax exam, public building, and demanded to see their 990. So you, that's allowed, but you can't walk into someplace that's received, not just tax exempt status, but literally tax dollars to the tune of over 42 million, as you've heard. And that's the, what is enraging is that's, that is just one office in Ohio. The other video was just one fake daycare in Ohio.
Starting point is 00:50:30 The others are, I mean, what is it, over 20? I think it's well over 20. Facilities, and that's just in and around Minneapolis. That's not all of greater. Minnesota. This is state and local, not just national. This should be the biggest story of all time right now, one of. And I fail to see why Americans should continue paying taxes under threat of a penalty that is not enforced against foreign fraudsters. We have more on the way. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for
Starting point is 00:51:10 Dana's Quick 5. All right, so they're calling what's happening in Minneapolis right now, domestic terrorism because a woman drove her car into a bunch of ice agents and ran them over, and then she was shot and killed in response. So everyone up there's rioting, and now it's being DHS, had said it's an act of, which it is, it was an act of domestic terrorism. So we'll be updating you on that here coming up. Let's see, in a couple of storage units, 60 to 80 boxes of collectible minimum.
Starting point is 00:51:40 signatures from Warhammer were stolen. Stolen? They were stolen. And it was in Cascade Valley in Washington. According to Grant County Sheriff's Office, they also stole 400 hot wheels. Now hold up. Are these like the old hot wheels where they were actually heavy metal cars? Or the crappy, mostly plastic or polymer hot wheels, which are garbage?
Starting point is 00:52:00 Because I literally still have an old lunch box of old hot wheel cars. For real, dude. I took that from my home with me when I got married as an adult woman. I did. Absolutely, because valuable. Guess what they're in? I got rid of mine. It's in a dukes-a-hazard metal lunchbox that I legit inherited from a cousin, an original.
Starting point is 00:52:18 No thermos, but I have it. It's amazing. I know. Anyway, so these things go for like 50 bucks apiece, so that's a lot of money here. Let's see. IHop and Applebee's are coming to Dallas Love Field. No one cares. The oldest Twinkie?
Starting point is 00:52:34 What? Turned 50? Who keeps a 50-year-old Twinkie? and a woman said a Walmart baby crib ablaze with camping fuel because the store is full of customers and she was crabby. Five million dollars in damages. Stick with us. Brighten up your timely news consumption with a Dana Show podcast
Starting point is 00:52:52 where every update comes with a little dash of Not So Serious on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts. Yes, we can all agree Maduro was an illegitimate president who did horrible things in that country and was corrupt. The way he was removed, move from that country matters. We are supposed to be a nation of laws. The way we did it was against
Starting point is 00:53:14 international criminal laws. Oh, shut up! Shut up with the international law. It doesn't make it right. I know, but let's just be consistent with other administrations that under just as tenuous of authority have taken out. We all agree that without a good plan in place it goes disastrously. I am not thrown into a way. That's why the opposition
Starting point is 00:53:32 leader. It's always a country that we can overpower. It's not China. It's not China. It's not Russia. It's not going to have a radar. Yes, it is. Oh, my gosh. It's like watching chickens peck each other. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:53:47 That physically hurt. Just a whole barnyard of hens. But the hens are smarter. Welcome back. Dana Lash with you. I mean, it's just bad. We're international rule space or shut up. That's meaningless.
Starting point is 00:54:01 Where were these individuals, where were these broads objecting to China coming in and exploiting our stolen infrastructure or to make money with Belt and Road. Where was that at? So a couple of things. First, a lot of people were asking about the Del C. Rodriguez. Why does she get to stay there? Long story short, apparently, I didn't realize. So in Venezuela, everybody's a general. They have like a thousand generals in Venezuela.
Starting point is 00:54:25 So you got a lot of hardliners that are pretty embedded. It is easier to control those people than to put boots on the ground and go and fight a war in Venezuela, which is what's required to root out every single person. who was, you know, Chivista or somebody who was loyal to Maduro. It's a lot easier to do that. Apparently, Delsi Rodriguez, if you believe that the legacy press, she's not playing ball. Suddenly they're worried now about tyranny. But apparently, according to the administration, she is playing ball.
Starting point is 00:54:55 So they're trying to gain control and at least make it to where China can't get in and there aren't any threats. And she seems to be amenable to the demands that the administration have put down, have laid down. So I get that. So that's first, that's why she's still there, apparently. I know some people were talking about Maria Machado. She was the opposition leader.
Starting point is 00:55:18 And, but Majuro, the loyalists, they're still pretty influential there. So that's why Delcy Rodriguez is where she is right now. It's not to say that that's going to be a permanent situation. The people ultimately are going to decide. But they, I think the demands that
Starting point is 00:55:33 the administration have laid down have been, they're pretty significant. significant. China's going to try to assert that they have interests too because of Belt and Road. All those Chinese communists can sit down because they're trying to use our stolen infrastructure, our stolen property, our stolen labor, et cetera, et cetera, as a way to make their bank with Belt and Road. And can I just add to, I think it's insane. Why would anybody even want to do Belt and Road anymore after you saw the abysmal garbage that China set them up with? Their anti-air radar was absolutely, worthless. You could go to Toyser Us and get some Fisher-Price stuff for a slice of the price,
Starting point is 00:56:15 and that's as effective as probably what Venezuela paid for from China. What is it? They had Russian Sam 300s, BUK's, Chinese anti-air radar, all were absolutely just garbage and did absolutely nothing. It didn't, it's not that it even notified them late. It didn't notify them at all. The fact that he was able, that Maduro was able to be retrieved in his jammies, and he couldn't even get to his damn safe room in time. I mean, that stuff is garbage. So how many of these other countries out there that are Belt and Road are seeing what China gave them going, uh, uh, so China's infrastructure, everything that they have is stolen,
Starting point is 00:56:51 they reverse engineer it and it doesn't work. I'm going to get to that rusty ship that Russia was trying to get back here in a moment. Yeah, the radars did not work. I was a friend of mine sent me this, uh, who served in the military and said, quote, I guarantee you that if you are a Chinese military planner contemplating how to to get an invasion army across 100 miles of the Straits of Taiwanese, he writes, you are blinking your pants right about now, because you've just learned that if you had tried to bust that move yesterday, your nice, shiny new invasion fleet would have gotten absolutely
Starting point is 00:57:20 gacked by U.S. air power and missiles that you wouldn't see coming. Caps lock, because you're blinking radars don't blinking work. Also, he writes, the Soviet anti-air missile designs that you cloned turned out to be about as useful as so many busted shopping carts. some of your guys are going to say that's impossible. The fix must be in. Air defense must have had orders not to engage, which is an extremely cheering thought. But isn't that what the Americans would want you to believe? The only thing better than having complete technological dominance of an adversary is having complete technological dominance of an adversary who's been conned into believing that it isn't true and walks blithely into being utterly wrecked by it. He adds, yep, before this went down, I was figuring a very high probability that the Chinese make their move on Taiwan in 27. Now, I guarantee you that their confidence in their previous risk assessments has evaporated. They no longer know what they'll be facing, and there's a significant possibility that mainland China's domestic air defenses are worthless, too. Now I'm going to suggest that you juxtapose these two phrases, thermobaric bombs and three gorges dam.
Starting point is 00:58:24 A China that's naked from the air has the biggest glass jaw in human history. So now I think it's pretty good odds that the invasion of Taiwan will never happen at all, end quote. That's about right. It's my new word now. Totally stealing that. It's about right. I mean, imagine, where's our ear defense? Well, sir, it's made in China.
Starting point is 00:58:44 Man, how much you want to bet that those Chinese, those commie diplomats got hit a couple times because their garbage didn't work? They're going to go, oh, we want, but we have investments in Belt and Road. It's a Lincoln logs and that's all it is. Legos, that's all they have. That's their Belt and Road initiative.
Starting point is 00:58:59 Nothing, everything that they make is garbage. None of it works. So did you, I, I, got to look at the story of this little sub, not the little sub, but the little ship, the little, they had ghost fleet tanker ships, including a Russian flag tanker linked to Venezuela following a multi-week long pursuit. So Russia decided to get stupid with us at the dumbest time possible. They had motor tanker Bella 1 and then motor tanker Sophia. They were either a last docked in Venezuela or en route to it. And the U.S. seized a sanctioned Taylor, the Sophia,
Starting point is 00:59:35 Sophia in the Caribbean, according to DHS. And because this is enforcing those sanctions. I mean, this was, they were, we have a sanctions blockade around Venezuela. So they were either coming to or leaving Venezuela in violation of sanctions. So the U.S. military seized it, subsequently handed control over to law enforcement. And the ship was sanctioned in 2024 first for allegedly smuggling cargo for Lebanon, for Hezbollah, around back Hezbollah. So the, the, The Sophia was already sanctioned. Or no, sorry, the Bella 1 was already sanctioned. So the Coast Guard attempted to board it in December as it headed to Venezuela.
Starting point is 01:00:13 The ship refused and headed across the Atlantic. So then they tried to reflag it as a Russian ship. And they painted this sloppy Russian flag on the side of it as they were being pursued across the seas. And Russia tried to send assets to escort the ship, but the U.S. got to it first. So, yeah, there you go. So that's what happened. Now, Russia's upset about that, and they can cry harder. Meh, don't care.
Starting point is 01:00:37 You violated sanctions. We have a blockade around this. F-A-F-O. We're done. We're done being kicked around, and we're done watching all of our geopolitical foes colonize in the name of rare earths, minerals, oil, and gas, and everyone telling the United States that we can't do it. Sit down.
Starting point is 01:00:52 Have a million seats. So they were trying to evade. Bella 1 was trying to evade Ghost Guard, the Coast Guard for weeks. And so they changed their flag. They painted a new name on the whole. They tried to paint a flag on the hole. And, no. I mean, and they were all being watched as they did it, too, which is hysterical.
Starting point is 01:01:08 Why would you do that? This rusty old thing. So they pursued it across storms, everything. And, yeah, there you go. So I just saw a meme that said Franklin sees this an oil tanker, and it's that Franklin Turtle. Yeah. So, uh, there you go right there. Now Marker Ruby is going to be an oil tanker, captain.
Starting point is 01:01:30 Add that to all the other things that he has to do. I sent that post out last night. The memes are glorious. They're so funny. So that's, and it was really, I mean, it's described as a rusty, old decrepit oil tanker. That's how the Bella one is described. And Russia claimed that the ship was going to Murmansk, which is being described as a very interesting destination for a rusty old empty oil tanker. Because that is the Russian Navy's most strategic operating base.
Starting point is 01:02:01 Huh. But I mean, it also handles oil, but that's mainly from what Russia does in the Arctic. So the Murmansk oil refineries is, this is according to world ports, this is from October. They said that they're largely disconnected from their national infrastructure. And so I don't know if Bella won't had oil or not, but they're not going to get much use from it. So they're just going to try to keep that. They're trying to keep it out of Trump's hands, essentially. What's on it, I wonder. I was watching this last night as it, as it unfold. folded. And as the first kind of tweets came out about it, it was very interesting. So, hmm. Now, it was, let me pull this up. This was in relation to it. So this was last night from the FATIX network where they said Russia dispatched to submarine and other naval assets to escort this empty rusting Bello one oil tanker. And apparently it was going to Venezuela, turned around, it was chased by the Coast Guard across the Atlantic, changed its registration to Russia. They tried to board it. They were rebuffed. And now they're trying to, they, the Russian Navy was sending surface combatants and then the sub to protect what was an allegedly normal
Starting point is 01:03:10 empty tanker from Iran. It was an Iranian tanker. And that's the one that was helping out Husbala. All very interesting, isn't it? You want to know what else is interesting. I'm going to share this with you in Slack. I forgot to put this down on my rundown. So I saw some of the left were trying to go at our military members that took part in the operation to catch Majuro. Do you know, Maduro didn't even trust his own countrymen to protect him. So his security team was entirely Cuban. And in order to serve on the security team, you had to be a proven hardcore communist. So it was, they were all hardcore communist mercenaries that were working with to prop up to protect Majuro.
Starting point is 01:03:50 So think about it. You have a tyrant who didn't win his election, refused to relinquish control, who was not at all duly elected, who was being propped up by a foreign by foreign communist mercenaries. Okay. Yeah, there you go. Wall Street Journal noted this morning that he welcomed Hezbole used Cuban troops to impose his rule. The regime in Havana said that 32 Cubans were killed defending Maduro.
Starting point is 01:04:16 And then they said it would be odd to read Article 2 subsection 4 is allowing foreign powers to use troops to prop up an illegitimate, unelected dictator, but not to remove him. That's in the Wall Street Journal this morning. That's pretty interesting. Now, what I just sent you, Cain, is even more interesting. So they identified, well, they've identified these Cuban mercenaries. One of them used to provide, he provided security to Pope Francis and John Kerry previously. So when Pope Francis came to Havana, this guy, his name's Colonel Umberto, umberto Sanchez, he, umberto Alfonso Rocha Sanchez, he's a colonel.
Starting point is 01:04:56 he was seeing providing security to Pope Francis in Havana as well as to John Kerry. Interesting. And that interesting came. He looks like a mercenary, doesn't he? He doesn't look like a typical soldier. That dude looks like a mercenary. He does.
Starting point is 01:05:13 Yeah, yeah, yeah. He looks like a James Bond villain. But he's right there in pictures with both of them. And then they apparently also have him pictured as well during their firefight. So he was one of the ones who were killed. he was protecting Majuro. So Cuba sent their most hard-lining, hard-liner commie military members
Starting point is 01:05:35 as mercenaries to uphold and to protect Majuro. So going back to the Wall Street Journal, just to quote it again, it would be odd to read Article 2, subsection 4 as allowing foreign powers to use troops to prop up an illegitimate, unelected dictator, but not to remove him.
Starting point is 01:05:51 Very interesting. It's his laugh minute. to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida Man. So I ran out of time for this one yesterday, because we had a really short segment. Florida Man was arrested because deputies say they found a firearm hidden under his prosthetic silicone boobs that he was wearing while he was trespassing at a construction site, said the authorities.
Starting point is 01:06:22 Matthew Zacharino, 39, was sitting alone in his vehicle last month when did. Deputies approached him. They found him wearing a red lace braw with prosthetic breasts. According to Polk County, Sheriff Grady Judd, in a video posted on social media, Judd goes, then we notice he's wearing a G-string showing off the boys. You know what I mean? He said it was highly unusual. Deputies discovered that he had a firearm literally hidden under the prosthetics. And Judd was totally grossed out. He said it's ugly, so ugly. Yeah. So the guy was charged with armed trespassing, loitering, prowling, steam without violence and several other things.
Starting point is 01:06:59 Yeah. I mean, he looked legit like a weirdo. I mean, it just, uh, let's see. Oh, boy, naked robbery at a Florida meat market. Mm-hmm. That's a full sentence. A naked mask man proves that pants are important. He says, uh, Florida man walked into a meat market, totally naked.
Starting point is 01:07:22 Any KKID, but he did have a face. covering on. No shirt, no pants, not even shoes, just a mask. And it was at BJ's meat market in Lake City. He walked in totally naked. And his 24-year-old Kobe Watkins, he apparently on his escape route, there was clothing. So it's like he discarded his clothing on the way there and then left the same way that he came. Nobody was hurt during the incident. They located him, took it in for a medical evaluation and then to jail. So he's got a bunch of charges, including
Starting point is 01:07:57 the exposure of sexual organs. Just that you have to have some confidence to not have pants on and rob somebody. Is it confidence? Or crazy. There you go. You know. Another machete story. South Florida man was arrested
Starting point is 01:08:11 also naked after a naked rampage with a hammer and a machete and he caused thousands of dollars and damages. In Homestead. Carlos Guerrero, 38, was arrested after police say he was armed with a hammer, mallet, and a machete, smashing stuff inside of a home where he rented a room. In addition, he was totally naked. And then he also threw a bag of cement on top of a white Ford Mustang that belonged
Starting point is 01:08:34 to one of the residents. He caused almost $9,000 worth of damage to the car, thousands of dollars of damage inside and outside the property, including the air conditioning units. They arrived. They found him on the side of the house naked and just bactively destroying things with a hammer. Lots of stuff. stuff swinging. So they took him into custody. Miami-Dade. And then Guerrero told the circuit judge that he remembered her from juvenile court. Wow. So he's in jail. That's just, again, they're crazy. I would be really afraid to be pantsless as a man swinging around a mallet. Just saying, really, makes me nervous. And I don't even have that plumbing, you know. Let's see.
Starting point is 01:09:19 We also have, oh, something. these are repeated several times um do i have time for those i think so a florida man robbed a dollar general right after he was released from jail why this was like the third or fourth story in the past like three months of somebody robbing a dollar general it's a dollar general third hours on the way what is the zoomer waffin saying about majura we'll talk you know i always look at history And I think that this is a moral assault on our democracy. And we need to look back at history when things like this have happened before the internment of the Japanese, the fugitive slave patrols, which is what this has felt like. And then looking back at the civil rights movement and having nonviolent direct action civil disobedient protests, it is so extremely important that we protest.
Starting point is 01:10:14 Dude, these people are warming out. Karen Bass, who was a big commie. Didn't she go to, like, Cuba and all that stuff? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. During a huge crisis. During a huge crisis. Well, no, this was even before she was in office, but she had traveled.
Starting point is 01:10:29 She was traveling during the wildfires. And, yeah. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash, with you. I had to play that coming in because she's like, well, under the Trump administration, it's just like what happened with Japanese internment. That was the Democrat Party that did that, by the way. Japanese internment.
Starting point is 01:10:45 And the reason why it was bad that, And I disagree with the Democrats doing that. And the reason it was bad that they did it is because these were people who were actual citizens. They weren't just refugees. They weren't asylees. They weren't people who were here on a temporary status. They were actual American citizens who had had kids here. And their kids had kids here even.
Starting point is 01:11:05 And that's what Democrats did. They love putting people in camps and they love making lists of people's names. So that's a really asinine comparison that she just tried to make. When we can, can we get this Jacob Frye audio. I know it's going to be a little tough. It just happened. So they had, Jacob Frye, who's the mayor of Minneapolis.
Starting point is 01:11:23 They just had a press conference. And he said, get the, he told ICE, literally, right after they were attacked by a protester, a rioter who tried to run them over with her car, he said to get the blank out of Minneapolis, we don't want you here.
Starting point is 01:11:39 We got to censor it. Yeah, we haven't censored it. Yeah, we have not. Kane is terrified because he thinks I'm going to play. I'm not going to play it. I mean, I could. I can just be right there but I'm not gonna
Starting point is 01:11:49 I'm not gonna but that's what he said he said in your Juan's getting some of the B roll ready he said get the blank out of Minneapolis we do not want you here somebody is dead that's on you well the person who was shot and killed was shot and killed in defense
Starting point is 01:12:04 in self defense by agents that she tried to physically run over with her vehicle she ran her vehicle right into a group of them she was trying to obstruct proceedings involving federal law enforcement officers who were getting people who were in the country illegally and deporting them. She ran her vehicle into them and she wouldn't stop. And so
Starting point is 01:12:29 they fired in self-defense because, again, she would not stop. And it killed her. So there you go. He is not helping. But he also has to do that. He looks like a hostage. He has to do this because otherwise how was he going to stay in power he beat out that one weird looking dude what was his name Illinois's not brother I don't know
Starting point is 01:12:55 Mohammed Smith I don't know what the hell the guy's name was he was a member again of the Somali diaspora who was running for office and Jacob Fry just debased himself to the Somali community there so he could
Starting point is 01:13:12 stay in power so he could stay in control and win the elections. So that's exactly why he's there. And he just looks ridiculous. So we'll have that for you. But that's not helpful. That is supremely unhelpful. Are we going to have George Floyd-esque riots now up there? They're trying. But it's winter. They're kind of sissy about that. They're, it's a problem. You know the guy. Let me pull this up. You drop this in slack. Let me go back to this. Give me just a second. I'm scrolling. The guy who was involved, isn't he the Capitol Police Officer, Lieutenant Michael Bird? He's the guy who shot and killed Ashley Babbitt on January
Starting point is 01:13:55 6th. He was running an unaccredited daycare center in Maryland. And apparently, now, he did not receive $190 million in HHS funds. That was the full allocation to that area in Maryland, but he did get a slice of that. So I want to make sure that we're accurate because the story's bad. It's and we need action, but I don't want to derail the veracity of any of these facts by overstating anything or by saying something that isn't true. So the 190 million earmark, that is, or the 190 million number, that was in total for that area. But he did get, according to what I've seen the rundown, he did get a couple million from it. So he is just as bad as you know the Minnesota all these other Ohio all these other stories so the so the cop that
Starting point is 01:14:49 killed unarmed Ashley Babbitt who had no idea what the hell he was shooting at and I again I haven't talked about the J6 stuff because I think it's all performative garbage from the left and I don't buy into that but I there's a photo that's online actually it's not a photo it's a still from a video excuse me where there's a SWAT team literally three feet behind her they're at the door and they're beating on the door, but they're at the door. Swat team's, but SWAT team did not see any reason at that point to engage. And you had this goofy fud, this capital police officer. Again, this is why back the blue comes with an asterisk who drew down and shot and killed her, unarmed woman. And that was the one cop shooting that the left loved. The left loves it when cops shoot white women. Oh,
Starting point is 01:15:31 they love it. So, and mark me. And media matters that you guys can go ahead and I'll pay for your family since you, you weak males can't apparently earn a paycheck any other way than lociening up George Soros when you're not, you know, watching conservative commentators. So they shot and killed, he shot and killed Ashley Babbitt. Now, he is also one of the guys running a fake daycare scam. Is that not just so fitting? Is that not so fitting? It's heinous.
Starting point is 01:16:00 Absolutely heinous. So this all is coming to a head. And I think they, they, Democrats, I think they're going to try to get everybody to pro protest out this winter because they have to do something they're going to be held accountable for all of this i mean you i mean you already tim walses already done he's done he has done politically forever he will never win another election he will never it's never going to happen he will never do anything outside of minnesota so it i mean it has to happen so they they're there what else are they're going to do to try to deflect and dodge accountability they're going to make try to
Starting point is 01:16:39 George Floyd the thing with ice right now. You run someone over, especially a federal officer with your car, you're probably going to get shot. You play stupid games. You're going to win stupid prizes. End of. End of. Someone tries to run me over. I do the same damn thing. Someone, I mean, this is insane. These were federal officers at a federal facility, and they were targeted specifically by rioters. And I will have you know, there's been tons of video out there showing that so much of this is organized by communists too different communist groups in different cities this is how it always is i have seen this for 20 years now this is how it always is so they're going to have their professional agitators up there but see people don't like going out
Starting point is 01:17:24 when it's cold so i'm just wondering how um often how much this is how much how many protests or how what how uh amplified or how crazy this is going to get man I'm telling you what so this is a it's a big issue can you you can't what do you think is going to happen when you run over a federal agent so Jacob Frey just tweeted this he well he tweeted this actually an hour ago quote I'm aware of a shooting involving an ice agent at 34th street in Portland the presence of federal immigration enforcement agents is causing chaos in our city. Wait, no, no, no. Why are they there? Why are the ICE agents in Minnesota and Minneapolis? Probably because they have an issue with illegal immigration. Do they not?
Starting point is 01:18:26 Hmm. Yeah. How much is, how involved is he in the fraud? So the criminals violently attacking law enforcement agents aren't the problem. It's the law enforcement's agent law enforcement agents that are responded to being violently attacked or the problem? This guy, Jacob Frey is a cuck. Absolutely. He is a political cuck. No other way to put it. In fact, let's just tweet it.
Starting point is 01:18:55 You are a political cuck. Boom. There you go, because he is. Just asinine. Okay, we have this censored audio. Fingers crossed. everyone holds their breath go ahead and hit it
Starting point is 01:19:10 but I do have a message for our community for our city and I have a message for ice to ice get the fuck Minneapolis
Starting point is 01:19:22 now why don't you go eat some more food and pretend to like it as everyone sits there and stares at you let's you go ahead and do that go eat some more of your basis food is what those that food look like i mean there's so many videos i'm looking at another video
Starting point is 01:19:44 um i mean you can see you see her uh completely run over you see her run over though oh gosh i actually this is something i wish i actually hadn't seen um i really don't want i don't want to play it for you guys because it is pretty hardcore but she legit runs over agents this is it's not an accident it is brutally on purpose absolutely brutally on purpose absolutely brutally on purpose, just runs them right over. What the hell do you think was going to happen? What do you think is going to happen with something like that? Good heavens. You can't just, and there's stills of it. You see who's in the wrong. I mean, she runs right. Oh, man, you see exactly what's happening. So they were conducting actual targeted operations. And then you had this, she tried to kill them.
Starting point is 01:20:34 She was trying to kill them. I've seen a million to videos of this right now. There's just no, no excusing any of it. This is some of the immediate aftermath. There was no excusing any of it. That's she, but this is what the left does. They love violence. They love violence. They encourage it. And then they try to blame everybody else when it happens. Just shameful. So is anybody surprised at this, they're targeting people who are in the country illegally and committing crimes, committing felonies still. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
Starting point is 01:21:13 We're going to show you video coming up after break of a new video angle on that woman who tried to murder an ICE agent in Minneapolis. It's one of the clearest videos out there. So a little bit of a warning heads up, but you're going to want to see it because they're going to try to make this George Floyd 2.0. Let's see. Looking at our headlines, we've got. An elderly man plunged from his 15th floor and is miraculously saved by a clothing, a clothes hanger from the flat below, from the little apartment below.
Starting point is 01:21:46 He got saved. He was left line on his back with those legs hanging in mid-air. He was rescued, but he literally fell on one of those, like, for high rises, it's like these apparatuses that they put on outside of their window to dry their clothes outside. Wow, that is crazy. I mean, he was seven stories up. It looks like it was an accident. I don't know how, but it was in China, of course. And, yeah, he was rescued, but good, heavens.
Starting point is 01:22:13 Carroll County parents are using ChatGPT to name the New Year's baby. It's not going to go well. Stop using AI to name your babies. They said the first baby that was born on January 1st in America is Hudson Oakley Winkler. It's a lot of K's. I like Oakley, but not when you've got a K in your last name. That's just too. Hudson Winkler?
Starting point is 01:22:40 I don't know. It's better than Oakley Winkler, I guess. That sounds a little too, like, ooh. But both of his parents work in county government. Hudson's a nice name. And they, I guess, used AI. Okay, let's not get crazy with that. Let's not go overboard.
Starting point is 01:22:55 A. A tourist on a remote desert island were stranded after a rift between U.S. allies. This is crazy. So this, I don't even know where, son, this was an, island between off of Yemen. Tourists on remote desert island stranded after a rift between U.S. allies. It was air traffic at the island of Sokotra, their main airport, came to a halt because UAE and Saudi with Yemen, right? So, UAE withdrew its troops from Yemen. They had a deadline with Saudi Arabia. And Saudis and UAE are friends, by the way. But now this little island off of
Starting point is 01:23:33 the coast of Yemen. They had 600 tourists who had flown in, but they could no longer fly out. So now they're kind of stuck. Why would you want to go off the coast of a country where they're having a crazy civil war? It's a desert island. It's not like you're going for anything other than
Starting point is 01:23:51 just, I mean, there's other islands like that in the Caribbean that you could go to. Just saying. So, uh, also, let's see, this is a sad story. It's a Florida boy story, but I didn't really Florida man, we keep lighthearted, but also dogs are the best people. A little four-year-old boy disappeared on New Year's Eve while visiting his father in Alabama. And he had, you know, the family's
Starting point is 01:24:13 trusty, loyal black lab mix named Buck with him. The little boy didn't make it. He was found two miles from home, but that dog stayed with him the entire time. That dog stayed with that boy. And so when they finally found the boy, they found the dog as well. And hopefully, that dog is taking care of for the rest of his life because it uh you know i mean he's he didn't leave him they didn't release uh cause of death for the little boy yet but uh just horrible they did charge the the uh elder father apparently he had chemical endangerment of a kid not apparently the best parent you know what that means chemical endangerment yeah making meth that's exactly what he was doing so maybe if he was paying attention to his kid a little bit more that wouldn't have happened i know
Starting point is 01:24:58 it's hard to say but some people need to hear it uh we have a lot more on the way including the latest, we're going to show you this video. Warning, though, but it is the clearest video ever because they're going to try to make this George Floyd 2.0. Stick with us. Make some common sense of the crazy headlines with the Dana Show podcast. You're on the go guide for getting up to speed on today's most important stories. Subscribe on YouTube, Apple, or your favorite podcast platform. So I want to show you the video that we were talking about just before we went to break. It's another view of what happened with the woman who drove into ice agents in Minneapolis, and they, in self-defense, fired at her and
Starting point is 01:25:42 killed her. And the reason that I think it's important for this to play, normally we don't air stuff like this, but they're trying to make this. And by they, I mean the left, Jacob Frey, the mayor of Minneapolis, and every other Democrat, they're trying to make this George Floyd 2.0. They're trying very hard already. So this is another angle. And I think it's the clearest angle yet. Nick Sorthor had this. And you see the woman drive legit into agents. Drive into them. And they fired at her. There's more of the video, but that's the crux of it. They fired at her and Sean killed her because she was still pushing through. craziness that is an attempted murder of a federal agent there is no other way to put that it was it was
Starting point is 01:26:39 attempted an attempted murder of an ice agent she could have just listened and by the way the officer barely got out of the way so there's other video where you can see an officer who got hit he was standing and he was kind of like on the side in the snow he was hit and then there were other officers that were there's an officer in the car that was hit that is that is absolutely attempted now I have another oh I don't know if I want to this is the officer that had stopped her and she would not follow commands it's a slowed down version of it Colin Rugg had this video. I don't know if we want to, and it's her taking off and then driving straight into the other agents at the end of the sidewalk. Now, you just see, the video just shows that initial action when
Starting point is 01:27:37 they're giving her commands telling her to stop and she doesn't listen and just continues driving off. She would be alive had she listened. She would be alive had she listened. This was like suicide by cop. All of this was entirely her fault because she did not listen. She would She was protesting. She decided to use her car as a weapon. That's what, I mean, I don't have any other word for it. But what's crazier, too, you see Jacob Fry out there immediately going after. Ice agents, Jacob Fry is only upset because he gets money from the Somali fraudsters.
Starting point is 01:28:20 This is a fact. From the New York Post, quote, A.G. Keith Ellison. his councilman's son, and Mayor Jacob Fry, and Representative Ilan Omar, all received money from the scammers out of that $250 million feeding our future scandal. They met the crooks. They dined with them. They had events with them.
Starting point is 01:28:51 All of it. All of it. that's a pretty big deal so I mean I'm just saying that's a very very big deal so I'm just saying that's a very very big deal so he got cash out of this and by the way if you want this link I'm going to not only I'll have it in your I'll have it in a separate post on substack but I tweeted it out if you want to read it now it's on my X account but he also was a recipient, I don't know how much money he got, but it's verified that he got money from feeding our future per New York Post. And it also, how much did they know? How much do they know
Starting point is 01:29:36 about this fraud? I mean, if you're out there defending women, out there defending people for trying to murder ICE agents with their car, yeah, I'm pretty sure you're probably the type who's not going to blow the whistle on fraud that you benefit from. That's a character pattern. So he doesn't want any of this out there. He doesn't want to be talking about fraud. He doesn't want to be talking about immigration because that disrupts his gravy train. At this point, it almost seems like it's safe to say. And I think this is a good point that a listener has brought up. We're funding crime with taxes at this point. We are entirely bankrolling crime to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars.
Starting point is 01:30:32 I think it's probably a trillion. That's when people don't even know where the tax money is going, that means too much money is taken in tax. We had a civil war in this country for less than this. all of it we had a civil war for less than this just saying i don't know i'm um at this point i'm so enraged any republican that doesn't want to cut taxes doesn't deserve the office they're just as bad as the fraudsters in my opinion just as bad as the fraudsters just as the fraudsters I can't we're finding it in Texas
Starting point is 01:31:27 we're finding it everywhere I have to speak to a couple of Republican I have to speak at a couple of Republican events coming up I normally don't like talking at GOP events because I'm not a party animal at all and I always feel like they're too ineffective I feel like they're too weak
Starting point is 01:31:47 and I feel like it's barely enough is supposed to be a victory. It doesn't feel that way. But I want to ask them, are you committed to repealing the income tax? Are you committed to reshaping how the government collects revenue? Are you committed to ending the theft of billions upon billions? I'd say a trillion dollars of hardworking taxpayer money to make it truly fair. and to stop this fraud and to stop the fleecing of Americans. And I have to do a panel with a bunch of elected officials, a bunch of congressmen. And that's one of the things I'm absolutely going to be asking.
Starting point is 01:32:36 And anyone who cannot answer unequivocally, yes, we're going to have problems on stage in front of everybody. Done with us. You know, we were out in the streets for too big to fail. this is this this dwarfs too big to fail that makes that look like child's play good heavens you know and I have
Starting point is 01:33:01 we have the Zoomer Woffin and all of these idiots you know these people that are cosplay on the right by the way can I just say something you know I saw let me go ahead and play this real quick
Starting point is 01:33:16 because we were talking about Maduro and all that a little earlier. This is a flashback. Actually, not flashback. Listen to this. This is cut five. This is Tucker Carlson, who I've known for years. We got into a giant text message debate on my anniversary, my wedding anniversary, because we were disagreeing on things. And I'm true to my promise. I don't leak messages. But listen to this. Cut five. We can safely discount democracy. as a reason for affecting regime change in Venezuela.
Starting point is 01:33:53 We're not going to go kill Nicholas Maduro because we don't like the way he's treating his people. It's possible we're mad that he doesn't allow gay marriage. That is a distinct possibility, but no one will say that out of. Not defending the regime, just saying, one of the most conservative countries in North or South or Central America.
Starting point is 01:34:14 Only El Salvador really comes close, which is much smaller. So he's basically saying that, well, his argument, and this is flashback to help it, to help solidify. This is what he said a few months ago, cut four on Maduro, to help give you a fuller perspective of why he just brought up gay marriage with Maduro. Listen to four. Maduro, most people didn't know this, whatever his many faults,
Starting point is 01:34:35 I wouldn't hire him as an economist, okay? But whatever's many faults has the most socially conservative country, probably in the hemisphere. So Venezuela is just a fact. I mean, I didn't make this up. I'm not in charge of Venezuela. What do you mean socially? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Starting point is 01:34:46 They can't even, what? So because he doesn't like gay marriage, that makes the murder of everyone okay. Let's look at socially conservative. Where does murder of dissenters fit in on the socially conservative gradient scale of ass-hatterdry? Where does that fit on that? I mean, so the argument is that he was socially conservative, and that's why, we were ousting him, there is this, with these old Gen Xers, the old Gen X, woke Reich, and the Zuma Woffen, they love this idea of these tyrants being social conservative,
Starting point is 01:35:34 so that makes them more palatable and acceptable. I mean, I'm just noticing fact. I mean, I didn't get mad of me. I'm just noticing it. But are they really, is Majora's really socially conservative, a guy who sells dope, destroys families, a guy who murders dissent, destroys families, a guy who suppresses the populace, that's in any way socially conservative, but because he doesn't like gay sex, that makes him completely acceptable, that reforms him entirely in your eyes? That's asinine, first off. That is my. miles wide, inches deep analysis that tries to justify tyranny in the most illogical way possible. That is not, I mean, I was shocked when I heard it.
Starting point is 01:36:29 When I first saw the video, I had to go back and listen to it because I wasn't quite sure that I heard what I heard. I don't think the distinct possibility that Trump captured Maduro because Maduro's opposition to gay marriage. Doesn't say anything about China. doesn't say anything about belt and road doesn't say anything about the infrastructure that the United States owned and paid for with different companies to partner with Venezuela
Starting point is 01:36:52 before the dictators took control of everything doesn't say anything about the drone program with Iran doesn't say anything about Russia's interest of being in close proximity with all of that power near the United States doesn't mention any of that but decides to offer some offhanded well it's probably because Maduro
Starting point is 01:37:09 he's a social conservative yes You know, social conservatives love killing people with cocaine and drug abuse, and they love working with the Sinaloa cartels and Trenda Aragua. You know, that's so socially conservative to partner with violent gangs that murder people and destroy families, which is just a very socially conservative thing, apparently. Now, I'd talk to him about this, but Tucker won't come on my show because I think he's, because he's afraid of a hard conversation. Tucker will not talk to me. This is a fact. It's in a text because it's going to be a hard conversation. And fine, I respect that.
Starting point is 01:37:47 I respect if you want to just go on friendly fire platforms. You want to just go on friendly platforms. And that's you're right. That's absolutely you're right. But I don't think that that helps to educate the populace about a conversation. I don't think that that helps to give people a broader view of your position if you only want to go and talk to the choir because you're concerned that you're concerned that you're not going to be able to defend your ideas if they're actually truly intellectually challenged. And that's okay to be afraid of that. Just don't pretend that it's courage or that it's analysis.
Starting point is 01:38:23 So this is, I keep seeing this kind of stuff over and over and over again from the same kind of people, right? Oh, but he's a social, but he's a social conservative. It's all right. He's a social conservative. Somebody was trying to say that about Hitler. Who is as gay as the day is long? They were all saying the same thing. The Dan Blaserian, the guy who's never met a leg day that he liked, Trump just attacked Venezuela and Kinnat Maduro. It's illegal under U.S. law.
Starting point is 01:38:51 All of these same accounts started, they were tweeting literally the exact same thing. It's just an organized op. That's all it is. It's an organized op. The whole thing is goofy. But it's where these like older Gen X are. that are basically baby boomers. And I'm saying that in terms of generations.
Starting point is 01:39:13 And then you have the Zoomer Woffin, which are the zoomers who think that politics began the day that they fell out of their mother's female copulatory organ. And they believe that politics began that day. Nothing else has ever happened. There is no precedent. And they haven't yet met tyranny that they dislike.
Starting point is 01:39:31 And they think that just socially is all it is without understanding the relationship to the economic aspect of it. Do you want to know when we were our strongest socialies, when we were our freest economically? And the people who don't understand that are doomed to fail and offer you crappy analysis. It's just shameful.

No, the other crazy thing about this is Nick Shirley found out that there were 1,200 medical transport companies in Minnesota, and so for a year, photos with timestamps were taken of all of the vans that were supposed to be used by these companies, and one whole year, not one of them moved. They got, they were supposed to, they were being paid supposedly to transport patients, but they sat there parked for a year without moving, ever at all, at any point. I mean, every aspect of this has been constructed to bilk taxpayers, to defraud taxpayers. So much is going to come out of this.

Yesterday, Minnesota leaders had a press conference to address all the Somali fraud with the daycares and all that. And one of the media members asked a very important question. Juan, this is cut 55.
Starting point is 01:41:15 Regarding oversight of the program, I'm just going to throw a bunch of questions here. Like, which agency will provide oversight? Who will be the investigators? That's a good question. Who is going to provide oversight? This is a good question. Listen to his answer. Uh, those conducting oversight, um, will, um, to a certain extent probably make themselves known to us.
Starting point is 01:41:36 What? What? You don't know who they are? Yeah. What? I'll be on Fox Business, uh, the evening edit, uh, here coming up. Make sure you tune in. In the meantime, I'll be back with you tomorrow.
