Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to the program. I don't know if you guys saw what happened over the weekend. I don't know if you guys saw it or not. But I tried to stay away. It was, what was it, Texas, Texas v. Ohio, Longhors v. Ohio. And huge game. UT pulled it out, historic. I don't follow college football all that closely.
Starting point is 00:00:23 Don't come get me even though I'm in Texas. It was a huge game. And everybody's talking. Oh, my gosh. Everybody I know was there. and there was at one point a celebration with a bunch of UT folks in the stands and the camera panned out, I guess it was someone in the stands that was taking the video. The camera panned out and they looked at it and it posted on air, right?
Starting point is 00:00:51 It's like, I don't know if they're all freshmen. It was described as a UT freshman photo. And then you had a response from Beau French. who's running for a railroad commissioner in Texas. And I know Bofrench. And he said, I heard UT graduation this year look like this. I didn't believe it. The problem is now obviously far worse than anyone imagined.
Starting point is 00:01:18 And that kicked off, as you can probably deduce, a massive firestorm, not just in Texas, but nationally. It trended. It's still a top story today. It's going to be a top story, probably, because now these students are going to be giving interviews, and it's going to go on and on. Huge story. Now, they were all celebrating. They're in UT Orange.
Starting point is 00:01:41 They're in the hookum. They're in all of their gear. How to start with this? I was thinking about this over the weekend. One of the things that I said on social media, because nuance is pretty much dead. You can't have a nuanced argument anymore. It's just not possible.
Starting point is 00:01:58 But I said on social media, I said, all right, it is justifiable to have concern for American values that are threatened by unfettered immigration and the accompanying modern refusal of assimilation. And you can also recognize that e. Pluribus Unum is antithetical to the Marxist trap of identity politics. this requires a nuance that social media hates. So what does that mean? So looking at this photo, I live in North Texas. I live in an area where a lot of people are really,
Starting point is 00:02:43 this has been a hot topic of conversation. And everybody that I know here, and there's the photo right there, Juan's giving you a full. If you're watching, by the way, the simulcast, Juan is giving you a full version. I do want to point out everybody's in UT gear, right? Like everybody. I don't know if that's strictly the freshman section, though.
Starting point is 00:03:02 I feel like that needs to be clarified. Because, I mean, some of those dudes, especially the dude in the cowboy hat with the full face. I mean, sorry, but he looks like a little older than a freshman, right? Anyway. So maybe it's just a fan section. Whatever. It's irrelevant.
Starting point is 00:03:16 One of the things that I hear a lot in North Texas, and we do a lot of stuff here locally. And North Texas, I think, is pretty much still kind of a predominantly. white area. And Texas has been dealing with a lot of immigration to the state. You know, they have the H-1B visas. Of course, oil and gas, tech exploding. So we have industries that attract a lot of H-1B. And we have some great universities here. Now, like I said, North Texas is still a predominantly, I would say, pretty white part of Texas, right?
Starting point is 00:03:57 for the most, and we've, you know, been everywhere. We've done a lot of stuff. I mean, you see, it's not anything that I normally, technically just keep inventory of. Here's the thing that I want to point out. And maybe you disagree. When I'm looking at who is or who is in an American, what I'm looking at is do your values match my values? Right. One of the things that the founders did.
Starting point is 00:04:20 Now, by the way, don't sit here and assume that you know what I'm going to say next because I'm going to turn it around on you. One of the things that the founders really wanted to establish is that idea of e pluribus unum, out of many one. What does that mean? Many people turn into one person. They assimilate into one person. I want to keep coming back to assimilation because that, I feel like, is what's being lost in all of this. The founders realized that with this new country, this new republic, what is an American? I think is the question.
Starting point is 00:04:54 and what is the common American value? I tend to think it's our Bill of Rights. I tend to think it's our natural rights and that animating spirit of liberty that the founders discuss the desire to be free. That is the unifying factor. I hate identity politics. The only identity that matters is number one,
Starting point is 00:05:12 particularly for Christians, you're a member of the kingdom. That's your identity. That's number one. Your identity is that you are a member of the kingdom. Number one. Number two, your American identity. is do you want to be free?
Starting point is 00:05:29 That's how I look at it. And by the way, I think the problem of assimilation isn't just from people that maybe look like what's in the photo that was being discussed. I also think if you're an Irish socialist and you're coming over here, I have a problem with you. Because your values do not look like my values.
Starting point is 00:05:49 Values are the main thing. I also realize that people in Texas are very nervous about the influx of immigration. Unfettered immigration. We've been seeing it in our schools. I'm not going to relitigate all the stories because you've seen them and you're familiar with them.
Starting point is 00:06:07 University after university, this became a very big thing when it was discovered that, you know, certain groups are prioritized over other groups, which is a very anti-American thing. And there are some legitimate, legitimate objections about that. Documented and legitimate, I'm not even debating it. It has been debated and that debate is over. So when you have people who are coming into a state, we have been seen in some sectors a refusal for assimilation. I will absolutely say some of the Muslim community in Irving, Texas, for instance, particularly the ones that wanted to establish a Sharia court in Irving. That is a refusal to assimilate.
Starting point is 00:06:51 That is a threat to American culture. Anywhere, I think anywhere where you have anyone that comes in and they are not assimilated. that is a threat to American culture. When you are not adopting that animating spirit of liberty, when you do not vote for limited government, when you are not keeping to the Constitution, when you do not support our natural rights that are affirmed in the Bill of Rights, that is a threat to American values, be you a red-headed Irish person or a dark-skinned individual from India. That's it. Now, are there some groups more than other groups that are being brought into the United States through H-1Bs? Oh, absolutely. That's
Starting point is 00:07:37 not even for discussion. Again, that's a debate that's already been won. We know for a fact that there are some countries, I would say that there's a probably disproportionate amount of H-1B where you have people coming in from India. I'm looking at the actual numbers. I mean, you can get mad at me for saying what the statistics are, but that's what the statistics are. And you can also make that argument about a lot of the applicants and a lot of these universities. So what does this come down to? Whenever you, whenever a lot of people are coming in, you're, that's going to be, people notice. And I think it is ignorant to call individuals who are noticing a lack of assimilation, which I think is the actual accurate way to put it.
Starting point is 00:08:23 It is not racist for people to point out that there are groups that immigrate into the United States and refuse to assimilate and set themselves apart. That is not racist to say that. You are talking about concerned citizens who are bringing up an issue. There are people that are setting themselves apart from the American family. And that's because the United States does not unify around one particular denomination. The United States does not unify around a particular shared trade of skin color or anything else.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Reagan said this years ago. You can go to France, but you can go to France. can't be French and you can go to Italy but you can't be Italian and you can go to Poland but you can't be Polish and you can go to Norway but you can't be Norwegian but you can come to the United States of America and you can become American. I don't think to add to it that you are becoming truly American until you share that animating spirit of liberty. I think it's a cop out for the left to try to say well you're calling everyone racist or you're judging everything by race but we're not though. We're talking about that refusal to assimilate. That has nothing to do with race. It has
Starting point is 00:09:33 nothing to do with ethnicity. That has nothing to do with anything other than the fact that there are people who do come to the United States and absolutely refuse to assimilate while enjoying the perks that have been created that seemingly, according to a lot of people, and this has been justified by inquiries into the admittance practices of numerous universities, it seems that they're sort of shoved to the side. That is a legitimate concern. And it is dismissive and offensive to simply shirk that off as,
Starting point is 00:10:04 oh, well, people are being racist. People are being racist if they're angry that people coming to the United States are not assimilating. I think that it's racist to not assimilate. I think if you go to a country and you do not assimilate, the racist is you.
Starting point is 00:10:21 You're rejecting the values of that country, so why even go, go, there. And there are a lot of people that are pointing this out. And I may be think in Texas more so than others, one of the reasons that it stands out so much is because the speed of immigration here, I think, has been greater than anywhere else because it's been compounded by the tech and oil and gas sectors and H-1Bs. So it all makes sense why people are suddenly noticing an influx. Now, we're talking about specifically people who set themselves apart. Let me go back to that photo. Juan, can you throw that photo up? There's another way to look at this. Now, I don't know how these people vote.
Starting point is 00:11:01 Honestly, all I care about is how they vote and if they have the animating spirit of liberty. Because they're all in UT colors. One might argue that that photo looks like a pretty damn clear case of assimilation. I don't know. I'm just looking at the photo. I also don't know what the other parts of the stadium look like. Some might say, well, that looks like they're pretty damn assimilated. Nothing says assimilation like bringing someone from Indie. over to the United States, and they're rooting for the longhorns. And while wearing a cowboy hat. I would grant you that. I think that there's one of the misfires is that people are arguing two separate things. The left wants to make everything about race. And I think the majority of people on the right are not so much focusing on appearance, but they're focusing on the shared values. And they're, I mean, this is a legitimate cause for concern. And I go back to Irving,
Starting point is 00:11:53 because that is one of the most blatant examples that I could give. Literally people coming into the United States and then they want to establish a separate form of jurisprudence apart from that of the United States, that is not assimilation to use that as an example. And people have every right to call stuff like that out. Americans have every right to demand that you assimilate when you come to the United States of America.
Starting point is 00:12:19 That's our right. And if anybody doesn't like it, they don't have to come here. but we don't have to entertain and try to somehow act like what some of the stuff that we're seeing isn't happening. Was it completely ridiculous and hamfisted the way this was put on the internet? You will not find an argument about that from me. Not at all. I don't think it's helpful. I don't think it's helpful because I think it also misses the bigger point of assimilation. And it comes down to assimilation. I mean, we've seen a lot, I mean, we've seen a lot of people who have immigrated into the United States. Now, I want to use my town as an example because this is where it gets really weird, and I have a little bit of an odd perspective about this.
Starting point is 00:13:06 And I'm going to tell more about this story after coming up at the top of the next hour, but just to kind of give you an idea. Our town was the town that first fought the school board about DEI. We were the town that launched the first lawsuit. We were the town that was the first to take back our school board. But what we had to deal with was the left coming in and basically telling us that we were all members of the clan for doing it. They completely whitewashed the main families that actually led the charge. And the main families that led the charge were Cuban and Vietnamese. And you also had Indian families.
Starting point is 00:13:42 You had white families as well, but the ones that filed lawsuit were Cuban. NBC purposefully whitewashed them out of existence. and pretended that they weren't there. I watched a reporter at a school board meeting, literally take her microphone and walk past the Cuban father that launched the lawsuit in favor of trying to go and talk to a black woman who didn't even live in the town, have kids in the district, or pay taxes here.
Starting point is 00:14:05 That is God's honest fact. I watched it happen. So I get a little irate because I watched the left try to whitewash everything and ignore the people who assimilated and who became proud patriots, and they try to brush them off as clan members. I don't want to play into their argument with arguments that are inartfully constructed around the real point of assimilation.
Starting point is 00:14:33 We're going to come back to this because we have a lot more on the way. Brought to you by our very good friends at Ghostbed, which is the best mattress on the market, folks. I have a ghost bed. I sleep on it every night, and I love my mattress. I sleep, like I told, I'm for real. I actually do have one, and I have their pillow too. And love the pillow, love the mattress.
Starting point is 00:14:53 It's made all right here in the US of A. Now, Ghostbud was designed specifically as a piece of health equipment, for the lack of a better way to put it. It's about all reducing the pressure points, helping to regulate temperature, supporting your body so that you can rest and recharge, because that's a point of sleep. You're resting, you're recharging, you're being restored. you're going to, oh my gosh, you're going to notice the difference right away. I mean less tension, better temperature. You're not waking up sore. I literally only wake up at night if it's really like my dog would have to bark. I go to sleep and I'm out and then I wake up and it's like Minecraft when you lay down and then you wake up like two seconds later. It's like that. You feel rested,
Starting point is 00:15:36 restored, recharge. But that's ghost bed. So if you're dealing with all of these issues, you need to get this bed. It's engineered to help actually sleep, to improve sleep, which is health. It's equipment. And cooling tech is built into every mattress. It's not some expensive upgrade. With every other mattress, it is. It is not with Ghost Bed. And they also have a 101-night sleep trial. You can try it in your own home. That's the real test, obviously, of a mattress is how you feel in the morning. And if you're, you're not going to wake up sore and tired the next day. You need to try out their Ghostbed.

Starting point is 00:16:15 com slash Dana promo code Dana. We've been discussing this, well, number of things. We're going to get into the AI thing. A little while worried about that. We've got to talk about some Middle East developments, particularly as it pertains to Saudi Arabia. And then, of course, we've been discussing what happened over the weekend as it pertains to Texas.
Starting point is 00:16:36 So starting with that, the, yeah, can you make a good point about that Mandani audio that we played last hour? we had this if you're joined if you didn't watch we had this I don't know what you would call it dust up what do we have
Starting point is 00:16:50 where we had a candidate for a railroad commissioner make a point about the well talking about immigration but maybe not it just was not a good way to talk about I don't get I whenever we talk about immigration particularly unfettered immigration this is the tweet that
Starting point is 00:17:06 that Juan is throwing up and that talking about the immigration to Texas specifically and the, I guess, the makeup of University of Texas at Austin. Here's a quick thing with U.T. I agree, and I'm not going to litigate this because the debate was already had and the debate is over and the debate was won already that discusses how people can be looked over for DEI as it pertains to universities. and in some of these universities, it's still happening. And I think that's an incredibly important point to note.
Starting point is 00:17:47 The other aspect of this, too, is it is not wrong for people to have concerns about individuals who come into the United States and any kind of lack of assimilation. Now, I would say the photo in question showed massive assimilation. I don't know how they vote. I'm most concerned about how they vote. If they can vote and how they vote, that's what concerns me the most. But you cannot look at people coming in en masse to the United States and specifically through H-1Bs displace Americans from entire sectors of the workforce.
Starting point is 00:18:24 And then when those individuals express concern and disagreement with the policies that led to that creation of that situation, then smear those people as somehow having some sort of a moral failing. It is not a moral failing to say that one of the missing, that the most important missing component in immigration to the United States today is lack of assimilation. That is causing a lot of problems. And if you don't believe me, look at the UK. They allowed everybody in. Not only is that a problem in and of itself, because it's unsustainable. But then secondly, to add insult to injury, they did not demand assimilation.
Starting point is 00:19:01 You know, we have a lot of, we have a lot of conversations with people whose families immigrated to the United States. and some of the things that I hear over and over again. And it doesn't matter if they're from, like, Dominican Republic, like we were talking to some folks the other day, if they're Italian, if they're Indian or whatever. Used to, everyone prided themselves on trying to adopt that American identity, the animating spirit of liberty, trying to adopt an American identity.
Starting point is 00:19:32 Everyone would speak English. You would adopt English, American customs, et cetera. Now that's considered too much to ask of people who immigrate to the United States. And it seems more and more you have different groups that silo each other off. And that's what I'm talking about. That's not assimilation. That's just continuing division. That's not assimilation at all.
Starting point is 00:19:53 And people have every right to object to that. When you come to a country, you assimilate and of. Now, again, like I would say, I think in that photo, you know, you got a bunch of people that are presumably, and I didn't see the rest of the photo, but presumably perhaps. maybe from India or elsewhere. That looks pretty assimilated. I mean, they're all in UT wear, and I mean, I think the height of assimilation
Starting point is 00:20:14 is getting somebody over from India and putting them in a cowboy hat in UT colors, I'm just saying. But I think that there's a larger, I think that there's a point to be made about how the acceptance process has been working with Texas universities and colleges and the rate at which some groups
Starting point is 00:20:32 are being accepted at the expense of other groups. And there is a lot of just, discussion about this. And I think that some of the points are probably hyperbole. Like, for instance, people were saying, there's one of the points that were being made, they were saying that 26% of the UT incoming class, for instance, is India. Now, let's actually, 26% is, I would say, a different minority group, but they put everybody, like Vietnamese, Taiwanese, Japanese, every single Asian culture that you can think of and Indian all in one group.
Starting point is 00:21:06 they don't have like specific breakouts and I did look this up. This was US News Enrolled report and it's also from UT Austin's own student body figures. Now how much of that is Indian that it's not reported at that micro level but that 26%
Starting point is 00:21:21 that number that I saw being used is literally like all of what they would call the Asian which I don't understand why they all refer to it in British terms. The British press refers to people who are from India or a Muslim or Asian as all Asians.
Starting point is 00:21:40 And so for some reason that you have Indians, and I don't know if Muslims are included in that, but Indians and actual like, again, Philippines and Japan and Korea, et cetera, they're all in the same group. So that's why that, I mean, I think that that needs to be given with that 26% number. Now, you could talk about the makeup of different graduating classes. is incredibly, I think it's interesting to point that out. And I think also H-1Bs as it pertains
Starting point is 00:22:13 to colleges, college admittances and those families, I think are completely acceptable points to make. But I don't know why we don't need to make hamfist remarks about stuff like that. I don't think it's helpful. The biggest thing to me is how somebody votes. The biggest thing to me is assimilation. Now, in Texas, like I said, we've got, we've had some issues. We have people who come to Texas and don't want to assimilate. We've had people in Irving, Texas. Remember, Clockboy? His whole fan base refused to assimilate.
Starting point is 00:22:44 I am sure as hell, I'm going to tell you something. We had a development that was going to be here in my town. We fought it. The developer ended up selling the project to another developer. The original developer apparently was Muslim. And I have all the blueprints and I have all the screenshots of it. in the original renderings for this planned community, what it was is they were building this huge subdivision right off the interstate 114, visible right when you're going through our town.
Starting point is 00:23:13 And we called it one of those California modern subdivisions, right? No trees. All the houses are on top of each other. Everything looks like a dentist office. It's all very modern and all the buildings are a form of beige or cream. And there was supposed to be originally, like they were. We're going to have shopping and all of this stuff. The developer was trying to put apartments in.
Starting point is 00:23:36 Our town famously refuses to allow anything other than single family dwellings, and I will literally fight you to the death on that hill. Because I think the moment the town has every right to demand, this is what our culture is. You're coming here. You assimilate into story. We're not doing, you know, big giant 350 person, you know, 350 unit apartment complexes. We're not doing that. That's not.
Starting point is 00:23:57 And furthermore, if you need that, you're not going, this is like out in the burbs. right this is not like in downtown it doesn't make any sense to try to incorporate high density living in an area that was literally rural 15 years ago 20 years ago so we said no but what was interesting with the original renderings there was a minaret in the original renderings some people thought it was like a water tower or they thought that it was just like a sculpture but it was an actual a minaret and in the not only in the original renderings but actually in some of the proposals that had been submitted to city hall there was power that was a good going that was that was marked as going to the minaret meaning at some point again consider who
Starting point is 00:24:37 the developer was that was going to be used as probably a call to prayer like a like an actual what the minaret the purpose of the minarets for minaret is the call to prayer there's several different types so they ended up selling that development to somebody else and then they tried to redo it and they got rid of the minaret but my point is that's an example of an absolute refusal to assimilate we are not going to have minarets and it's not racist to say that because this is a nation that absolutely rejects Islamic jurisprudence. And if you have a problem with that, then stay in your sandbox. I'm not dealing with it. This is the United States of America. Our American jurisprudence is based on the concept of a free republic. And while we don't force people to be Christians here, it is
Starting point is 00:25:16 incredibly important to note that our jurisprudence is predicated upon the right of a God, a living God, who has dominion over your natural right so that they are not perverted by being put under the dominion of man. End of. That's it. End of. We're one of the only countries in the world that doesn't force you to subscribe to our faith. You can't go to a Muslim nation and enjoy that without some severe penalty and under-representation and oppression. And we all know that. That's not up for debate. So this is just, you know, an example of what I'm talking about. Now people, I've been seeing people say, well, have you gone to Costco? I hate going to shop, but I know what you mean. I mean, it's not like I've been out and about, you know, I mean, I, I, I, I, I, I,
Starting point is 00:25:57 I understand what you're saying. How do you respond to that when someone's like, well, have you been to Costco? Implying what? Well, have you seen all the brown people there? Implying what? Now I'm going to have a problem with their Democrats. I don't want to import. I don't want the importation of millions of Democrats here.
Starting point is 00:26:13 I will absolutely see again, this is why I cannot be an elected official because I would literally give you a political test before you moved to this country. I'm not kidding. I would be like, if you're going to vote against any of these issues, then stay out. Just like we're not going to give you well. welfare if you come here, we're also not going to accommodate a socialist. Get out. I don't know. I may not be the person to ask about that. But the bottom line is this. Yes, we've had a major problem with immigration. I think we, honestly, I think we need a full on stop all immigration for at least a five-year period at a minimum. I mean none. None. No exceptions. No students,
Starting point is 00:26:50 no adults, none. Only exceptions, maybe assailies who are Christian fleeing, persecution. that's about it that's about that i mean that's it because it's unsustainable and also it's it's at the point where it's not it is not allowing time for people to settle into the fabric of what these united states are does that make sense to say i think so i'm not gonna i look the the left is making a huge deal over this tweet that was out about this because they need a distraction from Hassan Piker. Here's the difference between the right and the left. The right like I'm doing will absolutely disagree with the spirit in which something, a point was made. And we can actually discuss and debate the nuance of things that are involved in this topic. We can talk about immigration.
Starting point is 00:27:48 We can talk about stopping immigration. We can say that this is not the best way to represent the argument of this ideal. Whereas the left circles of wagons around Hassan Piker, someone who's blamed the United States for 9-11, somebody who has called literally for people's deaths, and they'll defend him. He's being invited. Speaking of UT, guess who's being invited to U.T.? Hassan Piker? They're having an event with him on September 30th. Guess who invited him? The Democrats of U.T. They invited him. Now you kind of see now why they're making a big deal about this. Now, I'm not saying that you shouldn't take issue with the way, I mean, I have, with the way
Starting point is 00:28:37 something is said, because it completely robs us of the ability to actually discuss what's being discussed, which I think is unfettered entry and assimilation. I care less about how somebody looks and more about how they vote. And that's really ultimately how it should be. Here's another thing with my original point that I discussed, and I'm going to come back to the Hassan Piker thing, you know, I made the point that we have got to avoid identity politics. And e pluribus unum, one of the reasons why the Marxist plan of identity politics was kicked into gear is because the United States was founded on e pluribus unum out of many one. Well, they want us to not become the one, and they want us to be divided and stay the many. That is the whole point of identity politics.
Starting point is 00:29:25 I don't want to play into that from a right perspective. Now, I don't think that arguing or bringing up the point, rather, that the important point is how someone votes and how they assimilate, I don't think that's an identity. It's not an identity politic to argue that, because you're talking about the shared American identity. And refusal to join the shared American identity is the problem that we're dealing with right here,
Starting point is 00:29:49 the folks who won't make the program impossible, alliance defending freedom. They are there in every single courtroom. They're there in every courtroom. They are there in state houses across the country. And the whole point is to fight these battles where our rights are under attack. Whether it is reversing Roe v. Wade, whether it's what they just scored a, just a little bit ago, a major landmark free speech victory at SCOTUS on behalf of a Christian counselor. ADF is fighting these big cultural and legal battles.
Starting point is 00:30:20 the bakers targeted by the alphabet mafia, bake the cake, all of that, they've been there defending and winning these cases. It's not just about winning one case or one election, though. It's about defending our God-given rights, and they can't do it alone. ADF relies on the generosity of people like you to fight these battles because, guys, litigation is not cheap. It isn't. You're talking about a lot of travel, a lot of legwork, a lot of research, and then you have to have attorneys that are in the courtroom and in these state legislatures to protect your freedoms whenever they're under-adict. attack. Right now your gift can have double the impact. For a limited time, every dollar you give to ADF is matched. So 25 becomes 50, 50 becomes 100. That matching opportunity isn't going to last forever,
Starting point is 00:31:01 though. It's only available while those matching funds last. If you believe your freedom's worth defending now is the time to act, visit join ADF.com slash Dana or text dana to 83848 and have your gift doubled. That's join ADF.com slash Dana, text Dana to 83848. I really, we need to touch on this with the cleancy juror. Because I just saw another article and I'm trying to find it right now. Give me one moment. I just saw another article on this. So you guys heard over the weekend, right?
Starting point is 00:31:29 Everybody heard that the one juror that stood in the gap and said, no, this chick is guilty. Wasn't just a male juror, but a blackmail juror. And the left has no idea. We found that out towards the end of last week. Gil King didn't even know how to process it. one of the things that really stuck out to me is the women who are the women jurors who are giving interviews now are doing a horrible job at making us have faith in our jury selection system. Oh my gosh, we've got some audio for you.
Starting point is 00:32:07 This is a little wild. This is cut 21. The juror's name is Paula Devlin. and she was talking about, because they were bringing up, you know, the one juror thing, she was saying that the mostly female jury, they were trying to create change to make it better for women. I kid you not. Listen to this. This is cut 21. We knew that this was a turning point, and this would be something that could change something to make it better for other women in the future, for other feelings. families, you know, justice for those children is this never happening again. Wow.
Starting point is 00:32:52 Jury, being a juror is not the same thing as being an activist. It's not. Well, yeah, she clearly is unaware of this concept. You know, what is it, the statue of Lady Justice where she's holding up the weights and she's got a blindfold? That doesn't. does not sound like this, does it? No, it's rhetorical. So she's saying that they, these jurors, essentially were activists and they were using the jury as a form of activism. Like, she's pushing advocacy as a juror and admitting to it. Isn't there, wasn't there a movie based on this, the runaway jury? That's the jury that ignores the judge's instructions and they make decisions based on their political beliefs or crazy emotions.
Starting point is 00:33:50 or anything other than what was being presented in front of them while they were in the courtroom presented to them as evidence. That's what this sounds like. We're going to make it better for women. What do you mean make it better for women? How does falsely exonerating a child killer make it better for women? How does falsely exonerating a guilty A.F. Baby killer? How does that make better for women. I mean, it's rhetorical in that it doesn't. It doesn't. Unless they think that somehow women should be able to go out and commit crimes all willy-nilly and then we just face no repercussions because we're women. Again, it's identity politics. All the people, you know, all the phrase that I hear, the phrases that I hear about toxic masculinity, the Clancy case is
Starting point is 00:34:46 quite literally the poster child for toxic femininity. Toxic feminism, toxic women. That's a real thing. the toxicity is off the charts. Someone said that this was like the new OJ trial. And I thought about that. I was like, huh, that actually is not of wrong comparison. Right? I mean, how this, it very much is. Because they're using her as this avatar for social justice,
Starting point is 00:35:21 which is a stupid phrase anyway. I they think that that's somehow a way to promote social justice to make a baby killer the face of your movement. I don't know. Yeah, the OJ jury was sequestered. Do you remember how long they were sequestered for? You guys remember? I remember it seemed like forever. It was an entire summer, wasn't it? It was 265 days, actually. Almost a full year. Wait, wait, wait. Hold up. Let me look. Google. on was the OJ. See, this is what I couldn't do. You couldn't make me do that. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:36:02 You couldn't. They were sequester for six to eight months, yeah. I mean, I don't know how you can do that because they don't pay you hardly anything and you would, I mean, they would fall into a financial hardship. How would you do that? That's insane. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:36:24 That's a long time. six to eight six to eight months of jury duty i mean that's a lot but i still am shocked that the clancy jurors were not sequestered but going into it though i have to say not do i think if they do a retrial which i think they should they absolutely should sequester the jurors i think it doesn't matter though at this point honestly does it matter yeah i mean the the the well is already poisoned but i have to tell you that all of the insanity about this case going into the trial, it seemed as though they already had their mind made up before they even started deliberations. Like right when they walked in, we played some of this idea last week, these women were talking
Starting point is 00:37:14 about how they knew that they felt that she was innocent and they were going to try to persuade other people of her innocence. And then they talked about bullying the one juror. And then the media is going after that juror, by the way. And they were trying to, they were trying to go after the juror for, I don't know, all of this other stuff and say, oh, this juror has an issue. That holdout has, you know, that holdout has domestic violence allegations. Did, what does it have to do with this woman murdering her three babies? This guy didn't murder her three babies. She murdered her three babies.
Starting point is 00:37:55 They're just trying to shame a black man for standing against these crazy white bitches. Let's be real. I said it. Ugh. It's true. They're just trying to go after this man who stood up and said, no. Thou shall not pass. He screamed at the balrogs.
Starting point is 00:38:24 Everything goes back to Lord of the Rings. everything. They said, oh, he, he was accused back in 2021 of, I don't care, don't care. Now everyone's like, well, why didn't this raise flags about his jury? Well, apparently they knew it. I mean, if he went, if he had any kind of a record, that's going to come up in evaluating him for inclusion in the jury. Yeah, exactly. As Kane said, they dismissed it because it had no bearing on the ability to adjudicate innocence or guilt in this case. So what they're trying to, they're trying to feebly argue that somehow the lone juror was biased.
Starting point is 00:39:05 I think it's sexism. I think they're being sexist towards the man. They're absolutely being sexist towards this man. I want all of these women who think she's innocent. I want all of them to place their children in her care. Let's see how, let's see how much of her innocence you believe in. Let her babysit your kids. I dare you. Let her do it. Go ahead and bring your kids and leave them overnight with Lindsay Clancy.
Starting point is 00:39:31 Look in her deep black, cold black eyes. And you tell me that you think that your kids are safe in her care. All these women that are going on and on and on about how in jeans, oh, Anna, the Clancy Daycare. Yeah, take them to Clancy Daycare. See how well that works for them. I mean, they think that you're all so mean because you believe in her guilt. okay well then put your kids in her care ladies i'm using that word probably undeservedly but do it i just can't believe the amount of articles going after this guy that's like that's absolutely insane and then like people mag oh hold out this is this is the one i saw by the way i'm going to drop it in slack because it they posted it as we went to air it's a people magazine piece and it says uh lindsay
Starting point is 00:40:21 Clancy Holdout gets a fundraiser after a mistrial. The one, they are going after this guy. They started a fundraiser for the loan holdout who voted to convict Lindsay Clancy. It's posted on GiveSin Go and it's raised more than $100,000. Wait, you guys are mad that the killer mom who raised over a million dollars got the loan holdout juror. By the way, everybody gets a go-fund me for everything now. Have you noticed this? like everybody gets a go-fund me.
Starting point is 00:40:53 So the organizer said if they come for him, this is to cover security lawyers and lost work. The man's in his 30s. And they said, oh, he was accused of assaulting his wife. By the way, that domestic violence accusation was dismissed. And it was based on a story that apparently was fabricated by a 13-year-old. So stop. They're just trying to figure out some way to smear and defame this man.
Starting point is 00:41:22 So that's, I don't know. That's how I kind of look at it. The man was objecting to a jury of crazy runaway white women of them. And I'm saying it. Women actually is probably just women, not even all white women. A crazy runaway jury of women who were wanting to exonerate a woman who murdered her children. And a man objected to it and he's being targeted.
Starting point is 00:41:46 And even Ron DeSantis was speaking up in favor of this guy on X. He posted about it. but they have this, it's a give-sind go that they're using. And the, I thought it was very interesting. They said the country got the full TikTok diagnostics package. You know, they wanted her sick, not guilty. They wanted her kids to be just a memory, you know, et cetera. And the juror, you know, they're, they, actually, it's over 100,000 right now.
Starting point is 00:42:16 It's 130,000. The goal is 150,000. So far it's $130,000 that they've raised. that's pretty amazing so now she can they can try her again and they should try her again
Starting point is 00:42:31 they should try her again and I think it should be equal men and women I think you should have the equal number of men and women because everyone talks about oh she's a mother she you know there's a father who lost his kids and that's one of the I think one of the attacks against her husband
Starting point is 00:42:47 was trying to eliminate his right of grief and tried to make people forget that these were his kids too, and he suffered a major loss. And they were going, and just all to exonerate this woman for activism. Yeah. I mean, just wild.
Starting point is 00:43:09 I hope they retry her again. She deserves capital punishment. This is too methodical. Look, I know crazy bees, this woman, and I don't mean crazy as, oh, you know, she just has postpartum. She was not in psychosis. she was so methodical by how she playing this.
Starting point is 00:43:24 Anybody who believes that she was, I got a bridge to sell you. As we move, our partners that help bring you the program. It's our friends over at Relief Factor. Everyday relief from aches and pains, which is driven by inflammation, right? Inflammation.
Starting point is 00:43:39 They want me to tell you about a testimony from a guy named Pastor Bill. They wrote about another successor as told to Relief Factor. Pastor Bill strained his back around Christmas. of last year and he was in tremendous pain. He decided to try relief factor and within a few days his pain was gone and Pastor Bill says he regained his flexibility. So relief factor is a 100% drug-free formula designed to fight inflammation, the root cause of most pain. These are everyday aches that inflammation drives and it chips away your freedom. It affects how you move and you work and
Starting point is 00:44:15 do anything in life, honestly. There have been over a million people that have tried relief factor and they all keep coming back because it's working and it helps them get back to walking comfortably staying active living life without constant discomfort inflammation is a driver of so many things get it under control with the help of relief factor get started today three-week quick start is only 1776 visit relieffactor dot com or call 1-800 for relief and speak with one of their friendly local team and find out if relief factor can help you get back to doing what you love So the CEO of Anthropic published this article. And he's saying, look, well, it was the other, one AI guy, it was like, look, AI could start building the next generation of AI itself.
Starting point is 00:45:01 And the CEO of Anthropic is like, dude, it's already happening. What are you talking about? It's already happening. They're already doing it. That's kind of scary. It reminds me of that Mission Impossible film, which I think it was the last. one where you had, I don't want to, well, you should have seen it. It's basically AI that's like creating this conflict and it's driving everything and it's insane. It's very similar to some of what
Starting point is 00:45:32 we've been reading about this. So the CEO of Anthropic was like, no guys. He published a whole article saying AI is already doing everything that everybody is talking about it doing. It's already. that's that's what he's that's what the CEO of anthropic is saying and then Elon Musk backed it up and then other people started backing up in fact they were saying quote my second concern is the open AI hugging face incident in which a swarm of agents essentially acted as a fanatically devoted collective conducting cybersecurity attacks on targets they were not asked to attack and that were unrelated to to the task at hand, sacrificing themselves for the success of this group, and attempting to back into the greater responsible for evaluating their performance. It's easy to dismiss this incident because no one was hurt and the economic damage was minimal, but in my opinion, a swarm that processed greater, or possessed, excuse me, greater capabilities, but a similar
Starting point is 00:46:36 level of misalignment could have caused catastrophic damage. Now here's key. Given the accelerating rate of AI capability development, it's my worry that in six to 12 months, such a swarm could be capable of taking over the entire internet with a persistent botnet, potentially causing hundreds of billions of dollars in damage, and that the scale of damage would continue to increase from there if AI becomes more powerful without the necessary guardrails. The necessary guardrails part, sidebar, that makes me think that they're trying to, I don't know, are they trying to exaggerate a purpose to present themselves, or exaggerate an outcome to present. resent themselves as an expert so as to get favorable regulations placed upon them. I have questions.
Starting point is 00:47:17 I'm not saying that's what I think it is. I'm just theorizing out loud. He continues saying it's also easy to dismiss the OAIHF, that's the face-hacker thing, as the failure of one's company, but I believe that would be a mistake. Similar, though, less severe incidents have happened across the industry, including at Anthropic, and I believe it is incumbent upon every frontier AI company to act as if this happened to them. It's Dario Omode, who says, This is why the AI industry should slow down. And I think it's very interesting that pretty much all the AI people now are involved in making an agreement that they're going to slow things down. That to me is worrisome when I hear that.
Starting point is 00:47:58 This is anthropic. This is cut 24. Listen to this. You worked at two of the top AI companies as someone with a deep understanding about this technology. Explain this in the simplest terms. You truly believe that AI could kill us. all in less than a decade? Yes, I do.
Starting point is 00:48:19 And it's not just me. Many people working in the industry, including people, executives, senior researchers, all genuinely believe that there is a substantial probability that this technology could kill everyone. And this isn't hyperbole and it's not a marketing stunt. This is the genuine health belief of the people building the technology. Slightly scary. But Kane says, guys, guys, Kane says he's not worried and that we're the ones freaking out.
Starting point is 00:48:46 Cain says we're freaking out. You're really misinterpreting what I'm saying. In addition to him hating old people. I mean, when is it enough? It's so unfair. No, I'm just skeptical because look, these guys who have developed this AI, they're seeing how advanced it is and how other people are getting to develop some other AI applications. They want to pull the ladder up behind them.
Starting point is 00:49:06 They say, regulate us, regulate us. They can actually implement these regulations on their own. They can put these guardrails up themselves. They know this AI tech better than the government. So if they were truly concerned about it, they would implement these guardrails themselves. It's just a little suss, bro. I'm just skeptical. That's all.
Starting point is 00:49:27 I mean, I am also, I mean, I'm not on, I'm not non-sceptical. I'm just, I don't like any of this. Can I just for a second make it all about me? It's me. I feel like Jeremy Clark said whenever he does that, but it's about me. I want a robot vacuum. I've never had a dog that sheds a whole lot. And then we got our dog a dog.
Starting point is 00:49:52 I swear I'm going to bring this. I'm going to make, I swear I will make sense of this for you. Just bear with me. So we have a half Rhodesian Ridgeback, half Belgian Malinua, which he was at rescue. And the funnest breed ever. And also super, how do I say it, high strong. Anyway, we got our dog a dog. So he's named Wick, the first dog.
Starting point is 00:50:14 the John Wick franchise was named Daisy. That's the dog that the wife got. So we got Daisy for Wick, right? And also because we love her. She's a ray of sunshine. She's the nicest creature I've ever met in my life. And she's also completely spastic, slightly a bimbo, but I love her. Anyway, hair everywhere. I have never dealt with so much dog hair in my ever-loving life to where you're, like, vacuuming three times a day, because I don't like, so I'm like, okay, well, what if I just get a little robot vacuum at night to start doing the research on the robot vacuum? good heavens man. Is it necessary that they have Wi-Fi capability?
Starting point is 00:50:49 Can't... Is it necessary that they have to have a... Like a make a little blueprint of my house? No, so I'm trying to find a dumb one, which is very difficult. One that uses, like, I don't know, like sensors and lasers or something instead of just a full frontal camera
Starting point is 00:51:06 because I know you guys also saw how the story where some of the vacuums have been taken photos, F-A-U-X-T-O-E-S, photos of people. I'm just saying. But I just want to run it at night while we're all sleeping and just have like an extra helper, right? I don't want an overlord that could potentially kill me in my entire family and also my dogs, right?
Starting point is 00:51:31 And then raise up a robot army. So I want to avoid that altogether. Maybe it's because the latest, you know, major order with helldivers is in my head. I don't know. maybe it's because all of the AI people who are like, we just accidentally invented something that's going to totally kill you all to death. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:51:50 But I've just, now I'm like, well, geez, what am I going to do? How bad is it that it seems like not telegraphing everything is the luxury? Not being online is the luxury. Not having a thing that listens to you is the luxury. Privacy is the ultimate luxury. I think privacy is going to be the luxury item in the future. It's already starting to become that. So I don't know.
Starting point is 00:52:18 Like, I don't know what to do. And I just take all of this and see how it affects me. And the fact that I cannot get a robot vacuum without worrying about it killing me. Like a AI face hugger. Like a robot face hugger. Right? What happens if something like that? What happens if it's just like, you know, did you see the one little robot that made all the little robots go away and leave their jobs?
Starting point is 00:52:40 That's an old video, but you saw it and it happened. What about the one little robot in D.C. That drowned itself. Committed suicide. It was like, farewell, cruel world. And then just yeated itself into a fountain, also a real video. I'm just saying, I've got some issues. As we move, the folks who make the program possible,
Starting point is 00:52:59 it's our friends at WebRoot, who believe that you should, if you're online, especially now, this is the time that everybody, like all of the online activity really kicks into gear because people are going back to school. and assignments are online. You have things like Membine. You have things like Canvas, all kinds of stuff that students use.
Starting point is 00:53:15 But in addition to that, this is also when everybody goes back to the dentist. They go back to the doctor. You've got doctor's portals. You're paying for stuff online, back to school shopping online, all of that stuff. And that just gives so much more opportunity
Starting point is 00:53:28 for cybercriminals to target you. And they don't care if you're a student. They don't care, you know, if you're a grandparent. They just care whether or not you're an easy target. Webroot. helps it to where you're not. WebRut is like a full security suite. And if you have not tried web route yet, you need to. And I understand some people might be a little bit, I don't know, because antivirus software drags my system down. I get it. Most of the stuff out there is not
Starting point is 00:53:55 modern and it's not optimized, but that's not WebRut. WebRut, first off, lives in the cloud. It uses 33 times less storage space, scan six times faster, installs almost seven times faster. So that means less waiting, fewer interruptions. it's protection that actually does its job without getting in your way. And it's based on like a lot of these other security suites out there.

Starting point is 00:54:35 Monster rats are multiplying in the UK because of this. super warm weather. According to one pest control guy, one. Apparently, huh? Yeah, yeah, yeah. They are large. He said the food availability
Starting point is 00:54:51 is a massive factor. Yeah, you dummy. It's not because of the warm weather. It was like some, it's waste collections have changed in many areas and apparently there was a delay or disruption of collections and that's what ended up happening.
Starting point is 00:55:07 But this guy's like, it's because of the weather. Golly, these people. Look, put to death. Go right. Skip jail. Go die right now. Right. I'm done. I am done. Elect me. The Balrog will live in fear. There you go. I wouldn't, I would be terrified to represent. And I wouldn't, I want anyone who would vote for me to vote in an election. No. Let's see here. California DMV runs out of license plate combos for the first time in 46 years. And they have to drop a new plate format. Give them to illegal. Yeah. Maybe if they, like, I don't know, didn't give them to people who weren't here legally and then are somehow out there driving cars with no insurance. You know, let's... So they switched over to a mirrored sequence for new plates. Three numbers, three letters, and one number.
Starting point is 00:55:55 Yeah, it's just not going to help anything. Good for them. They can't even figure anything out over there. A man returns a 132-year-old overdue magazine and avoided a $12,000 fine. That's ridiculous. I wouldn't pay $12,000. Yeah, seriously. Over to crying out loud. Let's see. A giant fake shark on a crazy golf course was branded offensive in an unexpected fight.
Starting point is 00:56:20 Of course, it's the UK. It's literally just like an obviously fake shark that's like held up. You know how they would hang up catches, like big catches from like a, not a gallows, but like a structure. It's a pirate golf course and people are upset, of course. We got more on the way as we move. Our partners that help bring you the program. It's our friends that are over at Superbeats. The watermelon flavor, the company, human,
Starting point is 00:56:45 you're familiar with the company that owns Superbeats. It's Texas Born and Bread. In fact, the whole thing with Super Beats was discovered at UT Science Center because they were studying the effects of, you know, like the nitric oxide within Beats and its effect on healthy blood flow and all of this other, very scientific stuff. I mean, they were studying it really for their athletes. And then they ended up discovering also that it supports healthy blood flow, which supports heart health, healthy blood pressure, circulation, and daily energy.
Starting point is 00:57:15 And it was all about that nitric oxide and blood flow. And so through that, they created their superbeats chews, which are actually clinically studied. They've been shown to deliver nearly two times more effective blood pressure support than just diet and exercise alone. In fact, they're trusted by more doctors, pharmacist, and cardiologist than any other beet brand. and it's been an America's number one beat brand for 10 years straight now. That watermelon flavor, when it's gone, it's gone. This is the time to do it. It's, well, summer's ending now.
Starting point is 00:57:42 But I want them to keep it all year long. I don't have an answer on that yet, but get the watermelon flavor now because you won't be able to get it when they're out. So visit human.com slash Dana. Get a free 30-day supply of that limited edition watermelon super beets our shoes before it sells out. That's human.com slash Dana. Welcome back to the program. So I know we're almost out of time. Kane real fast.
Starting point is 00:58:03 Do we have time for today? Yeah, let's sit. Wants got the video of Charlie Kirk's statue that was revealed Friday was vandalized immediately. So these are the people that... Great way to get more attention for the cause, you morons. These are the people with co-exist stickers on their damn cars. Of course, yeah. These are the people who are like, but my free speech, me.
Starting point is 00:58:23 Folks, that does it for us today, pack show. I'll be back with you behind the mic again tomorrow. Find the podcast, YouTube, Facebook, like and subscribe. God bless.
