About 1,000 of these illegal border crossers every day are getting away to parts unknown in the U.S.
Does the President think that is a national security risk?
Here's what I'll say.
One of the ways that we also have to look at this is what congressional Republicans have refused to do.
They have. They refuse to support previous requests from the President.
What they've asked to do actually hurts the issue, hurts the problem that we're seeing at the border.
They said no to border agents.
They've said no to new technology to fight fentanyl.
They said no to additional troops.
And they voted on eliminating 2,000 customs and border patrol agents.
That is what Republicans have done.
The president is asking to do this in a bipartisan way to find some compromise to deal with an issue that hasn't existed.
Existed for decades now.
So that is KJP, the White House there, who is letting everybody know.
look, we have no idea what we're going to do with the Biden White.
We have no, look, they have no responsibilities apparently, and there's no accountability
either.
And that's the other problem with this.
First off, welcome back to the program.
We are at the top of our first hour this Thursday, and we have a lot to get into as we
roll towards the weekend.
So busy, House Impat, they passed the impeachment inquiry yesterday.
And then, of course, the Senate passed the NDAA, which we're going to discuss super bad,
It's super dangerous.
And one of the reasons why it's so incredibly bad is because of the FISA stuff that is included in that.
And we're going to talk about some of that as well, break down, you know, what is in it, what you can expect.
You know, maybe what might happen with it in the house?
Because remember, the house is kind of fighting back and forth with their approach.
And so we're going to look at all of that as well.
We're also going to dive into some of the latest with Israel.
because it's weird.
It looks as though like Hamas may be kind of waving the red, the white flag of surrender, sort of, or at least retreat.
I mean, however you want to put it, maybe perhaps at least retreat.
But they've been pumping the water into all of those tunnels that have, that are there,
the 300 some odd miles of tunnels beneath Gaza.
So we're going to discuss all of that.
we're also going to get into some of the positioning with Biden on this, because as I've said earlier,
it really does feel like he's kind of crumbled on this, doesn't it? I mean, he really has. And then
some new polling is out regarding Hamas's popularity in Gaza. Now, remember, we've gone over the
history of Gaza and the West Bank and Fata and Hamas and the Palestinian Authority and so on and so
forth. We've gone over all of that. And the thing with Gaza is that, I mean, once they elected
Hamas back in 2000, after Israel, Israel unilaterally withdrew in 2005, then you had Hamas that was
elected in 2006. You ended up, they ended up enjoying such extreme popularity that they were
almost elected in West Bank also. And that's why, that's why they had the authority that
suspended the elections. And we've talked about the popularity. Well, there are, there's surveys out.
know who took the time to do this. I mean, it seemed kind of obvious, but there are surveys out
that have gotten into the state of things, the popularity that Hamas still has from Gazans.
And, you know, we've also talked about this, too, to the extent of this is one of the reasons
why a lot of people supported the martyrs fund after that had been created.
even some of the West Bank, we're a little shocked about that. We're going to dive into all of that. So there's a lot to hit today. And of course, we've got Florida Man and we have Quick Five and all of that, our headlines and all of that good stuff. So the impeachment inquiry passed. And so a lot of evidence there. And the inquiry, now let's explain again in case, just in case people are off sides about this. The impeachment inquiry is not the impeachment process itself. This is what Democrats didn't go through when they
voted to impeach Trump. And this is why there were people who were very angry, even if they were
moderate who were angry about that process. Because in order to carry out the impeachment, what are you
carrying out the impeachment on? What are you impeaching someone of? What, what is the purpose? What is the
point? Because if it's, if you're not bringing forward criminal charges, then it doesn't make any sense,
right? And that, that was the whole point with this. There were, there were people weren't bringing
forward criminal charges in this. There was no inquiry to uncover evidence. And in fact, there was,
there was an evidence. The FBI wouldn't even validate the dossier. And I say this is someone who has a
different choice in the primary. And I say this is somebody who calls balls and strikes. There
was no, there was no criminal charges. There was no criminal evidence to bring that impeachment.
They forewent the whole inquiry process in the first place, which is so weird if you're trying to
convince Americans that you were going about this, the fair and even-handed way, which, you know,
the first step of that would have been to have an inquiry. So they didn't have the inquiry, right?
They just went right into an impeachment. They just basically voted and said, you can't sit with us.
That was the whole purpose of that. They voted and essentially said, you can't sit with us,
that this is, because there was no criminal charges involved in this at all. There was nothing to bring
forward. So this is one of the reasons why, and as I've said before, I think that Republicans are
incredibly smart to do this the way in which they are doing it because you, if you're bringing forward
evidence that has been discovered in this inquiry, it really does prove to Americans that you're not
politicizing this and it's not just one big giant witch hunt because that's really what a lot of
people felt about the last process. It looks like you're really actually trying to, you know,
accomplish something here. You're trying to do something here. And so that's the, that's what they were,
that's the whole purpose of making sure that there's a very transparent.
inquiry process in all of this. And so with the inquiry process, now they're going to go through
because they've got a lot of evidence already. And we've talked about some of that, we've talked
about a lot of that evidence because now, because they formalize this and they've, they've
authorized the formal impeachment inquiry. And the process before this was to just see if they had
enough evidence there to substantiate a vote on this. This is the proper way to do it. If you're
going to do it, this is the way you got to do it. This is what,
Democrats didn't do. So they can't say, Democrats can't say that this is a politicized thing because, remember, a lot of this has been kicked off by the suspicious financial activity reports that the banks kicked off. It had nothing to do with Republicans. That was the banks that were like, wow, why is this family shuttling millions and millions of dollars between these 20-some-odd shell companies? And this money's coming in from China, from the CCP. It's coming in from Ukraine, from the Burisma Board. And it's going into bank accounts that have Joe Biden's name on them also.
So what's going on here?
That's what kicked all this off.
Let's not forget this.
And so now they have, they stated they've got enough evidence to launch the formal impeachment inquiry.
And so by launching the formal inquiry, now they're going to discover any kind of evidence that could, could lead to like a criminal charge.
That's what the point of this is.
This is the correct process that Democrats skip, which is why a lot of people who are big Democrat supporters, this is a foreign concept to them because they didn't see it.
done properly the first time. So now what they've done, now that you have this, the authorization
of a formal impeachment inquiry, the Biden's now, through discovery, they can have their bank
records, all of their mortgage details, all of their emails, their text messages, their mobile,
all of this stuff. Anything that Congress wants to see, Congress can subpoena this. And that's what
this now allows and what it means. So now they have the authority.
to look in to see if there have been,
if there's been any kind of criminality,
any kind of high crimes and misdemeanors,
and it can be launched by Mike Johnson, the Speaker,
it can be launched by really any member of Congress,
if they secure the majority for the action.
So they have the inquiry.
If they come up with the evidence in the inquiry,
which they probably have it,
that means that they then can launch a vote
for impeaching in the House of Representatives.
And so there's several committees
that have already been looking at different aspects
of these allegations.
you have the House Oversight Committee, you have the Ways and Means Committee, you have the Judiciary Committee.
They've all been investigating this to look at these deals, all stemming from these suspicious financial activity reports.
And so now they're going to pursue more evidence.
That's what all of this means.
It's a vote to pursue more evidence.
Now, if they come up with these criminal charges, then what they will do is they will draft articles of impeachment based on,
for the proposed charges based up on the evidence that they have collected.
and then they'll look at the evidence they've collected, they'll prepare the articles of impeachment.
Then they will vote on whether or not they are going to adopt the articles of impeachment.
And then they, if they, that's all in the judiciary.
So this all happens in the committee first.
So it'll be the judiciary committee that determines, okay, let's prepare the articles of impeachment.
And then we will, what are the proposed charges that we'll consider based on the evidence?
And then they'll vote on whether or not they want to adopt the articles.
They'll vote it out of committee.
It will be sent to the house.
House is going to, then there goes through this whole process, because then you have to, you got a
debate to bring it to the floor, you got to open it and you get into all of these different procedural
votes. And then at the very end, then after all the debate is done, they, they, they, they face a
vote as to whether or not they're going to send this to trial on the charges. Now, the House
determines, as you know, the House determines whether or not they're going to have a trial.
The House determines whether or not this is, they're going to do the investigation, if there's
going to be a trial, they're going to adopt these articles. It's the Senate that carries it out.
so it's the Senate that actually conducts it after the House sends it then it's in the Senate's hands
and the Constitution requires a two-thirds vote of the Senate to convict him and remove him from
office which is never going to happen with the Senate it will never happen with the Senate
now if the articles pass the House though and they send it on to the Senate then you can
officially state that he will be impeached, then it's official. He's been officially impeached.
So this is, this is the state of things. Now, I think there's no president, no Senate in the history
of the United States. There's, there has never been a Senate that has convicted the president of
the United States and removed him from office. I mean, so you've had people who've been impeached
because they've been passed through the articles have been, the articles to impeach have been, uh, uh, adopted by
the Judiciary Committee, they passed it to the House, and the House sends it up to the Senate.
But even in the case of Trump, and that was two times, he was acquitted both times in trials conducted
by the Senate. Even Bill Clinton, when that was all adopted by the Judiciary Committee,
and he was on obstruction and perjury. The Senate did not vote to convict him. He was
acquitted in the Senate. And Nixon resigned before he was even impeached. So, I mean, he was out
before that even, both that even happened, so we can't even really speculate. I
I think it was what, Johnson, who, he had a, this was in the aftermath of the Civil War, he faced
impeachment.
But it failed, there was two votes in the Senate to convict him. So we don't have any, we don't
have any record of history of the Senate actually doing this. So this, that will never happen.
Whether or not he can be impeached, though, that I, I definitely think will happen.
But the, that's, that's the whole, that's the, that's the whole point of it. That's,
so that's the process. That's what you can expect. We have a lot more on the way as we move
towards headlines. If you want to take good care of your skin, especially now that winter is getting

And now, all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick 5.
So in football news, you guys are all going to laugh at this because I've got a football
headline for you.
Bill Belichick is going to leave New England Patriots at the end of the season after
24 years in charge following what they...
Oh, that's hurt you?
It is surprising?
It is surprising?
I don't know.
Okay.
Okay, yeah.
Well, they said that it's a disastrous run.
That's how it was described as.
The U.S. son said, oh, 24-year...
run, it ended, you know, they said back-to-back losing seasons. But he had all of the big successes,
though. Anyway, let's see, there's, what? It's called the man pill. A holy grail, male contraceptive,
that they say is 99% effective and 100% reversible, and they are trialing it on British dudes.
But apparently only a minority of men would take it, and I don't blame you. That stuff sounds,
don't be messing with your junk like that. Like, you know what I mean?
like, come on, Supreme Court agrees to hear a high-stakes dispute over the abortion pill.
CBS reports that the Supreme Court said Wednesday they're going to take up the Biden administration's bid to maintain access to a widely used abortion pill,
marking the first dispute involving abortion that the high court's going to hear since the overturning of Roe v. Wade with the Dobbs v.
They said it was brought by a group of doctors and medical associations, and they said the outcome of the case could have far-reaching consequences,
The drug is Mifpristone.
That's the abortion drug.
Whether or not it can be, who can obtain it, who can prescribe it, all of that stuff,
and whether or not, you know, when and if it can be taken.
So it's going to govern all of that.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, which we're going to talk about here coming up,
plans a no-whites holiday party for members of the city council.
An aide accidentally sent out a group email invite that meant only for electeds of color.
she actually sent that.
She sent it out only for people of color.
So that's so dumb.
We're going to talk about this.
A homeless man allegedly holds an Atlanta news crew hostage.
Threatened to shoot them 90 minutes later, cops show up.
This is in Georgia.
Atlanta First news reporters and a photojournalist.
They were about to go live from a sheriff's office parking lot in Jonesboro.
And they said they were cornered.
by a drunk man who said that he had a handgun.
Now, they raised the alarm, but it took, they said,
90 minutes for police to respond and arrest the suspect,
who's identified as a Brandon Logan.
And they said that it took him 90 minutes to respond
during the time he made verbal threats to shoot them
if they did not order food or if they called law enforcement.
That's according to the judge in WSBTV.
It was all happening in the courtroom.
They said the victims attempted to leave their property,
but because of his threats,
and he acted like he had.
had a weapon, they felt like they were being held hostage.
I would have rushed him. I'm not going to lie.
I'd have beat the absolute snot out of him.
I would rush him and I'd have beat him so bad.
Like his generations back, three generations deep in history would have felt it.
But it's like if they don't have it, you better produce, if you don't have a gun,
if they have a gun, they're going to show it.
That's just me, right?
That's just me.
If they have a gun, they're going to show it.
Anyway, they said that they're still holding the investigation.
They said into, you know, what they called a,
breakdown in police communication. In fact, one of, I think this was the Clayton County Sheriff's
office, they said that they were being investigated along with the Atlanta police, Jonesboro
police, and maybe they'll find 90 minutes. That's way longer than the average 19 minutes.

Looking for the drive-through version of The Dana Show?
Check out the best highlights from every show and Dana's absurd truth podcast posted daily from The Dana Show.
He said that President Biden was familiar with what his son was going to say on Capitol Hill.
If I called my dad and said, I am about to violate a congressional subpoena, you probably say, son, you shouldn't do that.
Was there any attempt by President Biden to talk Hunter out of it today?
You're going to call your dad, Steve?
I'm dad, usually.
Look, I don't have anything else to add.
The president was familiar with what Hunter was going to say today.
And, you know, look, he's proud of his son.
He and the first lady are proud of his son, how he's rebuilding his life back.
He's going to focus on what is needed on the American people.
Hunter, and I've said this many times as a private citizen.
and so certainly I would have to refer you to his representatives.
I'm just not going to get into private conversations
because what you're asking me is actually a private conversation.
I'm just not going to.
First briefing since Hunter was indicted again in Los Angeles.
I mean to car.
But wait, I don't, okay, I'm not buying that.
It was a private conversation, so he can't talk about it?
You're, there's no private conversations.
You're the president of the United States.
you're the president of the United States.
There isn't a thing as a private conversation,
especially as it relates to your infant baby.
How old is he?
56, 57, infant.
I mean, you're a child forever, apparently now.
Son.
I'm just, I got, I'm made of questions.
So welcome back to the program, bottom of the second hour.
Make sure you sign up for the newsletter over at Chapter and Burr,
some really good stuff up there.
Lorraine has a very good piece up there about the Kate Cox story
that we were talking about.
Yesterday. You should definitely go and read it.
While all this is happening, can we just stop for a second and talk about what in the hell the first lady tweeted?
Can we just for a moment? Stop because it's Christmas season. Like I'm getting ready for our radio
Christmas party. I'm dressed like an elf today. Unintentionally. Juan just choked to death.
Juan just choked to death and died. We're going to have to reanimate him. It's the most color I've ever
one of my ever-loving life. I'm in red. I feel uncomfortable. I may change. I may change on break.
I can't do this. It's too much. It's too like, and anyway, so the first lady now, Jill Biden,
tweeted a video of this dance troupe from New York showing off all of the different White House
decorations in all of the different rooms. Because normally I think they put the tree in what,
like the blue room.
It's a big,
they put the big giant tree
in the blue room.
And the way that they,
we talked about this last week,
when,
was it last week of the week before,
when all the decorations went up?
And they said it was,
what was the theme?
It was something completely discombobulated.
It's candy and magic and wonder.
That's the theme.
That's so dumb.
I want to,
Juan is showing the people on the simulcast.
So they got,
they're tap dancing a version of the nutcracker
through the White House.
and there's a guy with a flower on his head coming on.
There's this weird dude.
And it's, first off, I'm going to turn into a purist.
The Nutcracker, nay, tis not tapped.
And then it's this chick in a blue dress.
And she just looks like, I mean, I've used a meme of this woman to,
she's going to be my response today for everything.
And then these people that are dressed up,
I guess one is supposed to be the flower petal.
One is supposed to be the nutcracker.
One is the toy soldier.
I mean, I don't know who the sugar plum fairy is,
but these people are tap dancing all through.
It's just a little cringe.
I don't mind
the showing off the decorations.
I don't like the fact.
Nutcrackers, not tap.
I don't dislike tap.
I mean, for crying not a lot,
I'd workshop with Savian Glover, so stop.
I don't mind it.
But it's just why...
I think I'm bitter
because of all the flack
that Melania Trump got.
I hate the guy with the pedal on his head.
I want to hurt him.
I want to push him over.
He's in these high waters
and his block taps
with this multicolored suit on and he's got a flower on his head.
And then we got this one chick dance with a candy cane.
Okay, we get it.
We get it.
Go ahead and mark up the floor there.
We're going to have to clean up the floor after he tapped all over.
I can't deal.
Am I being too bitter?
Can we talk to me for a minute?
I'm still being so bitter about this because I'm going to be real.
Every White House Christmas was so basic.
And Melania Trump came in.
And it was, and I just liked her decoration.
And they tried to go at her because she had this one soundbite. It was like during a catastrophe. It was like some kind of foreign policy catastrophe. And she was saying nobody cares about Christmas decorations right now. And everyone tried to make it out like, yeah, Juan is isolating this picture. Everybody tried to make it out like they were that she didn't care about Christmas when in fact she was talking about can we focus on more serious things. Juan, throw that out there. Because this is going to be my face to everything for the rest of the year. It's if you're watching the simulcast, it's just this lady.
The way she has her head tilted, it's tilted back perfectly to where she looks like she's
Danny DeVito bald.
And I guess that's supposed to be a face of wonderment.
But if Shriek had a face, it would be hers.
And she's, I don't know.
That was just, it was just kind of cringe.
But anyway, Melania Trump comes in.
And she had these really cool red Christmas trees.
It was got this all get out, man.
I was, as a maximalist, I totally dug it.
And then they, like, they trashed her.
They said, oh, my gosh, your decorations are so kooky.
and not more than this.
This is stuff in nightmares.
It's just cringe. It's basic.
Oh, my gosh, you put out peppermints for Christmas.
So original.
Can I just indulge me?
I've been so cool about this, you guys.
Now I can't be.
Look, we're going to make our theme wonder and magic and candy.
That is so stupid.
That's so stupid.
What is that about?
That's not what Christmas is about.
Are you afraid to say it's about Jesus
because somebody who loves a moss is going to come and try to behead you?
I don't know.
What do you mean magic and candy and wonder?
All you can eat is cheap candy because it's magic that you got it in the first place
and you're in wonderment at how bad Bidenomics is working.
Is that how this goes?
And the dancing, the guy with the pedal on his head, man, I'm not going to get over that.
If I was in the dating pool, if I wasn't happily married,
and I found out that anybody I dated had dressed up like that and danced like that in a video,
I would drop them like that.
Boom.
Be like, no, I'm sorry.
This cannot go forward.
this is done. I don't care if there was a year put into it. Done. Can't do it. It's over. No man should
should be walking around in that kind of suit with with a flower on their head simultaneously. And you're
wearing those shoes with no socks. Those are blocked taps. You're wearing those with no socks. That's so
nasty. I can see your ankle hair. That's so gross. Nobody wants to be seeing that. Shave it. It's
gross. I did say that. Yeah. Do it. I'm just real picky about this and I got issues,
man. So I'm just, I'm a little bitter because I felt as though Melania Trump,
decorations were really good and she got a lot of garbage for it and she shouldn't have she didn't deserve
getting a lot of garbage for it and they were I probably I think perhaps my favorite I can't even tell you
Laura Bush's decorations weren't words can you I even know what her decorations were what were her decorations
nobody knows it's just gonna there's nothing wrong with a Christmas point setta Dana says as she has two
point setters at the radio party later tomorrow so don't be you're not going to see him huh
yeah they are great they are great they're poisonous to animals
too don't let you dog eat them.
But the peppermint stuff and like the big giant plastic candy canes,
how much you want to bet that most of that stuff was made in China,
that they had festooned around everywhere, just saying.
So that came out.
It just seems a little tone deaf,
especially after the hostages thing.
It seems a little tone deaf, am I right?
Am I being too bratty?
Please let me know.
I just, this has been pent up for a week.
I have empathy.
I mean, we do the politic thing every day and this, you know,
it all seems like it's a show.
And then you go and you see this and it's like, it confirms it.
It's all a show.
You know what would have been really good?
You know what their theme should have been?
It should have been Oliver Twist or, you know, better yet, no.
It should have been Tiny Tim from Scrooge.
That's what their theme should have been.
Not Scrooge itself, but just Tiny Tim.
That's what their theme should have been.
Because that's what they're making everybody feel like across the country.
What a stretch, Jane up.
But it's true.
Think of it.
your grocery bill is like almost $100 more expensive now than it was.
It's so much more expensive.
I'm already doing like the,
I had,
when I was sitting down doing the Christmas menu and all of the stuff and what we're
going to smoke and what I'm going to prepare.
And because I am,
I use,
I always keep notebooks of all my menus that I make.
I am mentally 110.
I keep a notebook of like a notebook of all,
it's a binder actually of all of my past like menus and stuff.
because I'd like to, if this worked, I just want to be able to do it and not think about it,
pull it out, boom, it's done, and it's less stress on me so I can actually enjoy time with my family.
And I know what works, what doesn't, you know, and I keep track of all of it.
And sometimes I'll mark prices of, like, bigger items, especially if we're having like a lot,
if we're feeding a lot of people, I'll put like a mark of, you know, how much this was,
you know, and I'll probably put the year with it.
Dude, it's so much more expensive this year.
It is so much more expensive.
I mean, it's been more expensive the past several years, but particularly this year.
Anyone who's telling you, like when I see them get up there with Bidomics and they're telling you that everything is so much more affordable, where are they getting their groceries is what I would like to know.
Where are they shopping?
Because their policies have turned Aldi into Whole Foods for prices.
Now, I'm not knocking Aldi.
There's some deals to be had at Aldi.
Aldi's not bad.
But I'm talking about prices.
They have turned Aldi into Whole Foods.
Now that's not sustainable for most Americans.
That is not sustainable for most Americans.
I don't like to talk about charitable stuff that we do because I'm very Book of Matthew about it.
And I just feel like it looks cringe and it's not why we do it.
And I get embarrassed even talking about it.
But we just to illustrate the prices and the difficulty people are having as a result of this,
we always, like whether it's through our church or through different food pantries,
we always adopt families for gifts and dinner and all of that stuff every year. And there are so many
more families. And there were, they actually did have a drop off with one of the groups that we work
with, particularly for the groceries aspect of it, because prices had got so much more expensive.
It actually, through inflation, it curtailed their ability to be charitable.
Now, this is a very interesting catch-22 with the point.
policies that this administration has, especially at this time of the year. Because one of the things
that people undertake, and not just that, you know, around the Christmas season, but really all the time,
is the caring of others and the stewardship of other people through the means that they have been
blessed with. And that is spiritual edification. It's everyone should have the ability to do a good
turn because there is spiritual edification that comes from that. And when you are
your economic policies, which are directly driving prices, when that has cut people's budgets
and half and reduced their ability to do both things, you are reducing their ability to pursue
spiritual edification by sponsoring another family's meal, buying their kids' Christmas presents,
doing all of these things.
It is one of the, this is this spiritual dark side of communism and statism.
And I was talking with an email with a group that we had donated, we donate to before and we work with them for the meals for families.
And they said, yeah, they had some more families that signed up.
But they said the thing that really got them was that they had fewer people who were.
were able to come together. Middle class people. These aren't just like rich people that do this.
This is like people of every socioeconomic status that do this. But they said that they had fewer
people doing it because there are a lot of middle class, regular average everyday middle class
folks that are the goodness of their heart are doing a good turn to their fellow man. And their
ability to do so has been greatly impacted by the economic policies of this administration.
And I'm thinking, I was thinking about this. This is all happening yesterday. And I'm like going back
and forth an email and I'm like out of all the bah humbug things you're kidding me you're kidding me
and that was just I knew it but to have it elucidated to have that articulated in such a way by someone
who works with these families every single day there was a new a new level of realization
and it just it's to hear them get out there and tell people no no no things are not more expensive
yeah you have a right to get mad over that and that's not something small to get mad over that's something
big to get mad over and at this time of the year for them to go up there and tell them lies
that's inexcusable we have a lot more on the way i got a number of stuff for you gosh we've got
a lot of odds and insta we got to talk about the fiza stuff and the indiaa and talk about the
impeachment inquiry and all that stuff we're going to get into all of that so have you ever browsed

Like sands through the outer glass, so are the days of the United States.
About biology, I've been on hormone therapy since July of last year.
And I look different.
I smell different.
My physical capabilities have changed.
And when my breasts finally develop, I can actually lactate in nurse babies.
With what?
My favorite is when we play something really wacky.
And I can hear one going, moho.
He's like all the way in the corner.
I can't see him because it's all dark over there.
It's like the shadowy part of the studio.
He's all back there going,
Okay.
What?
I'm so grossed out right now.
He is incorrect in everything that he said on that video.
He will not be a woman ever,
and he will not ever lactate to the point of being able to successfully feed a baby.
You can produce some of prolactin,
but you can't really lactate.
Yeah, it's not nourishment.
You think it's not nourishment.
I mean,
shut up.
That's so, that's not what that is.
That's like,
just because a dude's nipple leaks doesn't mean he's a mom.
It's not happening.
It doesn't, it's never going to happen.
It's just science.
You don't have to be upset about it.
Why is, that's a quote on a t-shirt.
So Kane's going to have his own line of merch.
Just because your nipple leaks doesn't mean you're a mom.
Kane to dudes.
Here we go.
Make note of that.
Might be able to shorten it up and put it on it.
baseball camp or something.
Yeah.
Yeah, that would do.
That would be,
that would make a note of that El Gray.
That's something that, yeah, we need that.
Gawley, because and all this stuff,
well, it is possible.
No, it ain't milk.
You can have, they can have, like, some prolactin,
like if they're on, like a heavy dose of hormones and stuff like that.
But, no, it ain't.
I mean, they have to,
I love this.
It's like, no, they can't lactate unless there's an underlying medical problem.
Like I've told you.
Like when they're like men can have periods, if you're bleeding from your junk, see somebody because that
ain't normal.
I mean, there's nothing, no shame in that game.
Come on.
We have, I guess I can't believe we're closing the first hour out like this.
We've got to find something nice and regular to talk about.
Stick with us.
Second hour on the way.

It's also said that with respect to Gaza, whatever governance in Gaza looks like,
it can't look like what it did on the 6th of October with Hamas.
in charge, it's got to be representative of the aspirations of the Palestinian people. And that means
it's going to require some leadership and some change in the Palestinian Authority. Oh, oh, because
that's not going to happen. First off, welcome back to the program, Dana last year with you.
Are we already in the second hour? Yes, ma'am. This is weird. You know what happened? It was that
Willy Wonka acid trip tour that Jill Biden posted about. We all got, we all got roofied.
Dana last year with you, top of our second hour.
That was fast. I blame that. You can listen coast to coast. You can watch the simulcast, all that good jazz. Check out the YouTube discussion ongoing now. And sub-stack the newsletter, chapter and verse, all kinds of good stuff that goes out over it. So that was John Kirby. And pull up his quote. And he's saying, well, the future governance in Gaza, you know, it's got to be representative of the aspirations of the Palestinian, quote unquote. Again, can I just touch on this for a moment? To answer, I don't know if they were.
were trying to be a smart aleck or not, but someone was like, well, Dana, look at this first in the
Bible. What does that word say? And I'm like, Philistine? You mean the Greek people who had already
left the area hundreds of years before Hadrian had even spitefully renamed the area after them as a
result of penalty to the Jews for quelling the second Judean uprising who were trying to overthrow their
tears? Really? Because they were a seafaring people from Crete. But okay.
Them? Because it still doesn't, there is nothing that supports. You can get mad at, you can not like Netanyahu, you cannot like Israeli government, but you can't create a fictional people and a fictional country and a fictional ethnicity out of the ether. And it's not supported by thousands of years of antiquity, not in the Quran, not in the Bible, nowhere. And seen, because those are hashtag facts. So he says that, you know, the aspirations of the people in the two territories.
in Gaza in West Bank. Now, again, a quick, just a quick recap. The Palestinian Authority is the umbrella.
You have two of the bigger opposing factions, Fata and Hamas, under the Palestinian Authority.
You also have the PLO, the PA. One was a signatory on a governing document. They're all the same
people. The chair of Fata is also the chair of the Palestinian Authority. And so they hold power
in West Bank, whereas Hamas won elections in 2006.
in Gaza. So there's the difference. Now, here's why there was a split. Fata, even though I still think
they're terrorists, they at least recognized out of necessity that Israel had the right to just exist.
I mean, that's it. No one's saying you like them. No one's saying that you sign their yearbook.
You don't have to vote for them for prom queen. You just recognize that, hey, they're here on this
earth and they can be here on this earth. That's it. That's it. You're not co-signing anything,
except saying, hey, you're here, and you have a right to be here on this earth. That's it.
So, Fata did the basic bear be minimum out of necessity, and they recognized that, whereas
Hamas didn't. And then Hamas started winning all these elections, because the people in the
two territories, they agreed more with Hamas than they did Fata. And they still do. Case in point.
I have a poll. There's a survey out. Now, this is the Ramallah-based, quote-unquote, Palestinian
Center for policy and survey research.
They were surveying the people in West Bank and people in Gaza.
And this is brand new that is out.
It said, for instance, here's one of the questions that was asked.
This is not a pushpole either.
It says, in your view, given what happened after it, was Hamas' decision to launch its offensive against Israel on the 7th of October.
A correct or incorrect one.
now fata believed that it was incorrect or west bankian sorry which is run by fata believe that it was
incorrect the gossans believed it was correct in the west bank the people who support humas
over fata they believed 82 percent to 12 percent in gaza 57 to 37 total 72 to 22 now you can
see, Hamas still, there are a lot of people still align with Hamas. They still enjoy serious popularity.
That's why the Palestinian Authority suspended elections because Hamas was going to take over West Bank, too.
Now, Hamas started to get a lot of popularity because they did not want to recognize Israel as its own standalone entity, a sovereign state.
And the people in Gaza believe that, which is why they overwhelmingly voted for them in 2006 after Israel unilaterally left in 2005.
And I know some of you are familiar with this, but for some of the drive-bys, I like to remind,
Israel literally pulled up stakes. And again, you don't have to like Netanyahu or anything to acknowledge fact.
I mean, we're not flat earthers, okay?
J-B-U-S. That's G-E-E-B-U-S.
We're not flat-earthers. We believe in history.
They literally moved. They left behind literally everything.
They left greenhouses behind, irrigation, entire manufacturing facilities.
they left everything behind.
It's like if you buy a house,
you don't even buy a house.
It's like you're given a house
and you walk in and it's fully furnished.
That's literally what it was.
And instead of improving
on any existing infrastructure,
as Amnesty International reported
two years after that,
Hamas was already
digging up pipes
and refashioning them as bombs
to send over and rockets.
And then you wonder
why they have a sewage,
they dug up half the damn pipes in Gaza City.
That was Amnesty International saying that.
You know, that big bastion of conservatism at Amnesty International.
They're all about conservative politics.
Jeez.
So that's what they did.
Then they dug 300 miles of tunnels underneath Gaza.
They, NPR reported in 2008, they found a stash house of weapons at a school, like bombs and rockets, all kinds of stuff, in a school.
they have a religious center that they use as a launch base.
Their headquarters is literally in the Al-Shefa hospital, literally.
And one of the reasons why I've said it's so well known is because it's insane that a terror group uses a hospital as a headquarter.
It's so well known.
So that's what they did.
So Hamas enjoyed such popularity.
They almost lost West Bank to them too, so they suspended elections.
Now going back to the survey that is out from this Ramallah base center, fewer than half of Gazans believe that Israel will fail in Gaza.
They said West Bankers are more certain than Gazans that Israel will fail, 87-44 percent respectively.
They said only one percent of West Bankers think Israel will succeed in eradicating Hamas, 17 in Gaza.
And they said that, they said that Gazans think that they may lose the war.
they may lose this, but they still, they feel like Hamas was completely justified.
Now, here's what's interesting. So Abbas, they, who's Fata side, they don't, they still don't like him.
The people that support Hamas still don't like him. That's not. So there's still that measure
of discontent between the people who support Hamas and the people who support Fata.
So I don't know.
What's going to happen?
I mean, and this is not too much.
This isn't too different from a previous survey that was taken even before.
So I don't, I don't know.
Like, I don't know what it takes.
That's why this is not a political issue.
This is like a holy war for these people.
It really is.
So I, I mean, this is just wild.
It's wild.
but they still enjoy major popularity.
Now, the other thing, we talked about yesterday,
it was the leadership of Hamas that's been hiding out in these palaces in Qatar.
And then they had one of the leaders, one of the senior leaders left.
And they think that, well, they think that he may have gone.
Maybe he went to Algeria or maybe he went to Lebanon.
But the AL Monitor reported that one of them floated an offer,
Now listen to this.
One of them floated the offer to recognize Israel's potential right to exist and maybe fold itself into the Palestinian Authority if as, you know, maybe a precondition for ending the war, maybe to end the war.
So they said, according to the reporting, quote, a senior Hamas official suggested that the Gaza-based militant group would recognize Israel as they stepped towards ending the long-running division.
between the Palestinian factions.
So remember, the PLO,
they've always recognized the state of Israel.
The PLO is like the signatory on all this.
So there's, you know, it's weird.
It's just weird to, they're trying to,
this is after they started pumping water in the tunnels.
They are, they're, they're trying to save themselves.
It's weird because you had to see,
one senior homas official,
Musa Abu Marzuk, who said, quote,
you should follow the official stance.
and the official stance is that they, meaning PLO, has recognized the state of Israel.
I don't know if that's how you can't force it, especially up on a people who supported Hamas
and then were raised generationally to support them.
Now they said, because six weeks ago you had, I'm going to pull this up.
Who is the guy?
Remember we had the audio of the guy?
He was one of the Hamas spokespeople who literally went out and was like, we're never going to stop.
it was Ghazi Hamad.
He said, we're going to repeat the October 7th attack time and time again until Israel is annihilated.
And I think that was on Al Jazeera or Al Jazeera or rebroadcast it.
I don't know.
But that's crazy.
That's crazy.
We can't play it because Al Jazeera will try to demonetize their video on YouTube.
They try to file, even if you're talking about it in a fair coverage, fair use, they still try to go after you.
It's ridiculous. I mean, it's nobody even knows what fair use is anymore. I think it needs to be better policed on social media because no one's changed. It's literally news. And it's on a news network and you're quoting someone talking about them in a news fashion. But such is this is the stuff that we deal with with YouTube every day. So this is what that, that Hamas official, that was on November 1st when that video came out. That was November 1st. It was a little over a month ago. So what's changed? I mean, seriously, what has changed? This is wild.
I mean, I don't know.
So now they say, well, now we're going to have this.
So what's going to be the new point?
Because they literally had that Hamad guy who was insisting that Hamas was within its, quote, legal right to do what they did on October 7th.
I don't know.
They keep saying the word occupation.
It's not an occupation.
I don't know. But the idea that October 7th was justified, that, I mean, that was the cashless
that Israel needed in order to declare war, really. So I don't, that was not an aggressive act. That was a
responsive act. I don't know. They weren't under occupation. And they had a ceasefire on October 6th.
So I don't know where they think they're going to go with this. But, you know,
you have clearly two distinct strains within Hamas leadership right now.
And one of them left to go try and went elsewhere.
And I don't know if that was because Mossad was hunting them down.
I don't know.
I don't want to ceasefire.
I want a more fire personally.
Because I think that this is, I don't think that there should be any room for these guys to come back.
I think they need to be obliterated.
I think all the leaders of Hamas need to be killed.
They absolutely need to die.
Because this is never going to go away until they do.
Hamas needs to be not decimated.
It decimated is only 10%.
Hamas needs to be utterly destroyed.
Every single leader, every senior fighter, every single person who gave them shelter needs to be destroyed.
This is a war.
War is ugly.
And bad guys who have spent 20 years trying to incite and killing people need to go.
They cannot coexist peacefully.
They've proven that they don't want to coexist peacefully.
and we need to stop this sick experiment that's like costing innocent people their lives.
They got to go.
But Biden's crumbling.
We have more on the way as we roll towards headlines.

All right, two men were convicted of stealing $2,995 worth of stuff from Coles.
But here's the burning question everyone wants to know.
Was Colsk cash involved?
They argued for lesser charges because they said there was a sale and they had coupons.
You know what? That's actually brilliant. I'm not going to lie.
Like they are totally shady and they deserve the punishment.
But if you're going to defend yourself, why not go Whole Hogg?
They were convicted of felony theft.
They stole from a Coles store in Colorado.
The defense attorneys argued for misdemeanor charges.
They said, look, the amount of the value of the stolen items, you're overpricing it because they were on
sale, actually. And they said the items were valued at $2,095. And so Colorado punishes thefts under
2000 way more lightly. And so that's why their defense attorneys were, or is arguing for
lesser punishment because they said, no, no, no, this stuff is on sale. So actually, the total
value of the stuff they sold is under $2,000. Now, the dudes in question gets more entertaining.
Michael Green, age 50, and Byron Bolden, 37, were nicknamed the Kitchen Aid Mixer crew in reference to the kitchen appliances that they stole.
They also took designer shoes and clothing, but they said, no, no, no, the stuff actually was under 2000 because they were on sale.
They also had coupons if you apply the coupons.
How do you apply the coupons during a theft?
And winter weather alerts were issued for six states as Vegas, braces for snow.

What was tried to be done with FISA
was to bring two bills to the floor, unamendable.
Decided only by small groups of people.
That's what was occurring.
And with respect to this,
it was decided by leadership,
both sides, to take and jam FISA extension
on the back of our men and women in uniform, bring that to the floor in violation of our rules for single subject,
and then say, take it or leave it.
That was what was done.
That was the compromise.
See, if you poke the bear in this town, right, they don't like to be poked because it changes the way this town works.
Heaven forbid, because it's been going so well, so beautifully, that we have $34 trillion in debt,
and that we have rampant spying on the American people that is occurring.
In 2020 and early 21, the FBI conducted 278,000 improper searches of Americans, according to the 2022 FISC report.
We're just supposed to trust the FBI has fixed that.
In June of 2022, an FBI analyst conducted four queries of Section 702 information using the last names of a United States Senator and a state senator based on information that a foreign intelligence service was targeting those individuals.
We have rampant abuses going on, and this body is just going to extend the very mechanism of those abuses on the back of the National Defense Authorization Act and say, have a nice day. Merry Christmas. Go home and have your turkey. Go home and be with your families. That's what's actually occurring.
Wow. And he's right. That's Congressman Chip Roy from the beautiful Republic of Texas, who was on the floor in the house. And he was blasting it because the House sent this bill to Biden's desk.
Welcome back to the program.
Dana Lash with you, bottom of the second hour.
Amongst the policies that are in this is the Pentagon funded pride stuff.
That's what they wanted struck out.
That also includes, well, there's a bunch of stuff in with that.
I mean, it's pride events that are funded by the taxpayer.
These are events that celebrate how you have sex.
Why the hell is the military doing that?
The military has one job.
It's two words.
Kicking.
Yeah.
One job.
Two words.
That's it.
So now we're just going to put rainbows on everything.
What is that going to solve, by the way?
For real.
Like, what was the whole purpose of them?
What, what, what, what, what is the purpose of, of doing this?
This is like, so that's one part of it.
The other part is you have this World War II lend lease thing that provides all the stuff to Ukraine.
That, so we've spent, this is, the spending alone for Ukraine is like $800 million.
I'm sorry, what?
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
And that's off of looking at this, Council on Foreign Relations.
65 billion already or sorry 75 billion that's just an aid and logistical support and this is when
as red state noted there was a very interesting piece that red state had uh where they talked about
how the pentagon would hit a panic button as it failed the sixth audit in a row pentagon for six years
in a row they failed a self-audit of 29 standalone entities that is 3.8 trillion dollars in
assets. 3.8 trillion in assets. Seven of the 29 audited entities achieved a passing score.
A whole seven? Wow. Seven. They got a passing score. The Medicare eligible retiree health care
fund received a qualified opinion. The auditor found quote unquote misstatements. Now, if you do that,
misstatements, it's a lie. If you lie to an FBI official, you go to jail. You don't have to
be, like, swear under oath or anything. If you're talking to FBI and you lie about something,
you go to jail. That's why I don't talk to anybody in the FBI. I've literally had conversations
with people. No offense. No offense. I'm sure. I know there's some really good agents out there.
It's your bosses. It's definitely not me. It's not you. It's your bosses. But I literally have talked
to, like, really good people who are in the FBI. And as soon as I find out they're in the FBI,
I'm like, I can't talk to you anymore. Not that I feel like lying, but I mean, hell,
Do you even need to lie anymore?
So I'm not even exaggerating.
Literally that happened during a church thing with us.
I'm not even exaggerating.
So the indicting auditor found misstatements.
They didn't change anything.
You had defense advanced research projects agency and the national security agency.
So yeah, for six years in a row, they failed an audit.
That hasn't changed.
but yet we're going to give them more money and let them do more stuff. Not only are we giving them
more money, but we're literally allowing them to do more things without proper oversight,
without proper oversight, because you're getting into the FISA stuff. And of course,
Biden's going to sign this thing. Of course he is. I mean, this is, it's an asinine thing
that this is that we've had all of these because
Kane how many how many
Republicans voted for this you had the number
147 voted yay
on this
so we have the warrantless domestic
spine program that the FBI abused
that we've just
we've allowed to go through
you know the same
the same we've allowed
the FBI who
was tracking parents at school board meetings
now we're allowing them to do more things.
This was authorized by Section 702, the FISA Act.
That was post-9-11, so it's all Patriot Act stuff.
And they are able to get warrantless looks at your phone records, emails, other electronic communications.
In 2021, the FBI ran more than 3.3 million queries through Section 702 alone.
And this is a huge bill.
Mike Lee was apoplectic over it yesterday.
on social media.
Because you don't even have to have a warrant.
I mean, think about all of the abuse that we've seen from the FBI over the past several years.
Just look at all of the abuse that we've seen.
And now we're allowing them to do, we're doing more.
Because under FISA, under Section 702, the NDA enables the FBI's ability.
and essentially tries to nullify the Fourth Amendment.
Because in order to do, to have these warrantless searches,
you have to deny the Fourth Amendment the prohibition against warrantless search and seizure.
You, this should be a big deal to you if you're one of the people who thought it was ridiculous
that the FBI used the Patriot Act to surveil parents who spoke out at its school board,
and tagged them for their database as quote unquote domestic terrorism.
That should really concern you.
If you're one of those people who is very upset over law enforcement agencies watching
what you were saying in the wake of COVID, that should really upset you.
If you're one of those people, maybe you had questions about the election.
There are some people on the right who did, some who did and some thought it was entirely stolen.
If you had any question or if you even, you know, hiccuped anything.
you know, if you're if you're one of those people worrying about federal oversight on that,
then this should very much concern you.
I really wish this is where I get mad at the tribalism of the Republican Party
because all these dudes are out here having a fallacy measuring contest.
And you know what it would have been really great, particularly if Trump would have done this.
If he would have went out there and said, yeah, look at the way the FBI win at people at J6.
And you're going to have Congress that's going to vote to enable more of this.
out of all the people who should have been screaming about this, it should have been him.
Did he?
I seem complaining about other people, but I didn't seem complaining about this.
This will affect people long after he is not anywhere near a political office.
I mean, people literally were imprisoned over unlawful parading.
Out of all of the people who had a platform to scream about that, it should have been him.
Can you imagine the attention that would have brought?
if he would have come on and said, look at this NDAA bill.
Look at Section 702.
Are you one of the people who, you know, where were you on January 6th?
If you were even, you didn't have to be in D.C.
They were arresting people who weren't even there.
And this, we were on air when it happened.
We slammed the vandalism immediately.
I'm a taxpayer.
That's my house.
But don't sit here and tell me that people who were literally not even in the complex that
legit were arrested.
There's some millions of stories about it.
there's receipts, there's records, there's affidavit, all this stuff.
It was so far above and beyond.
It was ridiculous.
But now, when you extend Section 702, how does Congress make reforms?
This is a question that Rand Paul brought up.
How does Congress make any kind of reforms on this?
Because now they can collect communications with under FISA.
I mean, it's like injecting a steroid shot into Patriot Act.
I've never, I did not like the Patriot Act.
I did not like the argument that people were making about it that, well, if you don't have anything to worry about, well, that's just the thing.
What you have to worry about is determined by the political environment anymore.
If you just don't even vote the right way, then apparently you've got something to worry about.
This is just, this is bad.
It'll get worse if we lose 24.
And the fact that you had so many lawmakers in the House that voted for it.
Now Johnson originally said he was going to allow a pair of these 702 authorization bills.
Reason magazine had noted this.
One of them was a reform bill that to come to the House floor for a debate, but that didn't happen.
I mean, it's a short-term reauthorization.
So there's one, I guess, good sign.
It's a short-term reauthorization.
I'm not trying to justify it.
I'm just trying to find a way that you can fight it.
Because next year, I think before spring, it's going to come back to the floor and we're going to have to have this fight again.
So I'm curious.
We need to have people be making some arguments about this, especially those whose campaigns maybe perhaps were very affected by it, right?
Do you have any Cain hope that this was short term?
Do you have any hope that this is that they'll?
That somehow they reverse this or that Biden won't sign it?
Well, Biden's going to sign it, but it's only a short term.
So, I don't know.
I'm hopeful that will get somebody who, you know, these people have, didn't they swear an oath to the Constitution?
Or no?
Am I just imagining that?
Well, I mean, we're just cherry picking anymore.
Right, right, sure.
I mean, you have some that just want to get rid of your Second Amendment.
You have others that want to get rid of your Fourth Amendment.
By the way, this is one of the things I asked Canaan break.
All the people that are upset over the compromise, I'd like to see an event diagram.
Where's Kamala at?
want to see all the people who are mad over red flags and all the people who are mad over this.
Right.
Because it's the same damn thing.
It's actually worse.
Yeah, it's actually way worse.
It's like you voted for a giant red flag.
So I'm just, I'm made of, we got Florida Man on the way.
Let's have a little bit of sanity from Florida Man.
That's how bad it is.
As we get moving.
It's his life mission to make bad decisions.
It's time for Florida Man.
Man, some of these are wild today.
Like, what is up?
I got a guy over here selling 40 pounds of horse meat and all kinds of stuff.
Like, what in the world?
All right, first off, this dude, this Florida man, stole an ambulance and took police on a chase that ended right literally in front of the sheriff's office.
Like literally, pulled up in front of it.
Yeah, that's pretty convenient.
Columbia County Sheriff's Office.
The deputy was helping EMS with a patient who was in an altered mental state.
probably under drug influence.
The guy, 35-year-old Stanley Williams,
got in the ambulance and just drove away.
Sheriff's office says at some point it suffered tire damage
and it struck a curb and Williams drove it into the entrance,
literally right into the entrance of the sheriff's operation center,
like right into the entrance.
Like right by the flag and everything.
Like, you know, the little garden area in front of some of this stuff
right up to the damn door.
The whole ambulance.
It's like the cops ordered delivery.
Yeah, it does actually.
It's like, hello, EMF.
delivery. Now, the sheriff's offices, there was no damage to its property other than some of the
cosmetic damage to the lawn. So, they said it's not every day a pursuit ends at our front door.
Oh, nice. Yeah. So the guy's got charges of Grand Theft fleeing and eluding, all pending.
Do I want to get the guy at the horse meat? Because we had one guy who checked out of Walmart with literally,
the cash register is not for sale.
Does that have to be said?
You didn't buy it.
Well, or for stealing.
It was 8.30 on Sunday, Walmart in Palm Coast.
Flickr County Sheriff said a Florida man took the cash box out of a register and legit walked out with it under his arm.
They don't know who he is.
He's balding.
He has a red shirt on.
He's making a stupid face.
Yeah.
Man, the video of that guy driving this right up to the sheriff's office too, can I just come back to that for a minute, was wild.
that was wild
was it a woman driver
it was wild man
I keep watching that video
it's on autoplay I've seen it seven times
it's just
oh okay so you guys are like
wait tell us about the horse meat
okay yeah that was
this guy was busted for selling
40 pounds of horse meat
you can't do that it's like illegal
this was uh gosh
this guy his mug shot says yeah I did it
it was a horse meat sting
in a Home Depot parking lot
Well, Miami Lakes dude got arrested on a felony charge, according to police.
They said a horse had been slaughtered for its meat.
Police coordinated a setup to purchase it from this dude.
And he got base, oh, man.
The informant gave him $500 and he got a large black plastic bag of horse meat.
40 pounds of what they said was illicit meat.
Illicit meat.
Add that to the list.
Illicit meat.
they said that you can't sell horse meat for human consumption unless it's clearly stamped
mark described as horse meat etc etc it has to be from a licensed slaughterhouse so I guess
is that a way to make sure that I don't like I just think that if you're buying unidentified
meat in a Home Depot parking lot in a black trash bag illicit then you deserve what to whatever
the hell happens to you that's just like your penalty it's like a
tax on stupidity. That's nature's tax on stupidity. You know what I'm saying? Like, then you deserve
whatever. Whatever happens to you then. Let's see. It was an old man fight in underwear.
Should I say that for tomorrow? Yeah. Because this is, I mean, it, it, witty-tides galore. And they were both
old dudes screaming at each other in the middle of the road in underwear. We'll say that for tomorrow.
It's third hour coming up.
John, why does somebody around here leak that the vice president is upset with the president about Gaza?
That's a great question because I just, I mean, if I could answer a question why somebody would leak,
I mean, that would make me pretty smart and a lot smarter than I am.
Let me just give me a second here.
You've seen us officially and on the record, not in a leak, refute the basic premise of the
story, that there's some sort of daylight between the vice president and the president. I found
the headline of the story interesting, that the vice president is pushing the White House to,
you fill in blank, XYZ. Last I looked, the vice president is part of the White House. She's part of the
team. And if she wasn't offering her advice and counsel to the president on innumerable issues,
that would be a story. Her job is to provide advice and counsel to the president.
So she does want President Biden to show more concerned publicly for humanitarian damage than
in Gaza. We have, I think we've already pushed back on the premise of the story that there's
some sort of daylight between her and the president. I would say that the entire leadership team
here in the administration, Peter, wants to see no civilian casualties, wants to see the Israelis
be more surgical, more precise, wants to see that humanitarian aid is increased into Gaza.
And obviously, as the vice president has said herself, we all want to make sure that Israel has
the tools and capabilities they need to defend it.
John Kirby has some definite tells.
I love watching people when they get into these situations because they develop a pattern of tells.
And you can immediately recognize if they're selling you, you know, a bunch of snake oil or not.
Welcome back to the program, top of this third hour with you, Dana Lash here.
So that I love the question that Peter Ducey had asked him because he's like, okay, so do they not see eye-to-eye, the VP and the president?
because there's reports that they don't. And Kirby's, he went into this like vaudeville performance
with his hand gestures there. I mean, I felt like I was watching a soft shoe routine. Good grief.
Man's out there with his hands, Fossie, and then he jazzed it up with some Fossy. I mean,
my gosh, he's out there. His cane was saying, he's selling it. But he does this thing where,
have you noticed he brings in the corners of his mouth? He's able to somewhat purse his lips together
as he makes his eyes bigger. And then he starts, he brings. He brings him.
brings his gesticulation closer towards his body.
It's like his elbows become attached to his ribs.
And he's just as very uncomfortable.
And he does like he's trying to really emphasize.
It's like he retreats into himself as a safe space.
It's fascinating to watch.
I just love watching that kind of stuff, the body language,
whenever they get into these very uncomfortable situations.
So welcome back again to the program.
This was all on Israel.
They're trying to figure out if there's any,
if there's any
space between
the president
and the vice president
where it concerns Israel
because they're not seen eye to eye
on stuff clearly.
I mean,
but it also looks like Biden's caving.
It does look like he's caving.
And I don't know.
Whether or not,
however this ends up,
because now you have,
we were talking about this last hour
with Hamas seemingly
looking as though you have
some leaders who are kind of wanting to try to, I guess, undo what they did.
I don't know how to describe it.
They can't press the backspace key.
There's no control all Z here.
Some are describing it as a retreat.
I don't know if I describe it as a retreat, but I feel like they're trying.
They do this thing where it's like, okay, we've been, you've assailed us for this long.
Now let us give us a couple of years to regroup.
Let's pretend that we're going to negotiate some sort of coexistence.
And in that time, we'll regroup and we'll get more money and then we'll do this all over again.
That's why this has got to stop.
They've been doing this since 05.
This is why this has got to stop.
Absolutely has to stop.
Some of the other things that we're hitting, because we were talking about in DAA,
came over some, all the stuff that was still in it.
You were, because they have the taxpayer-funded unnecessary medical surgery.
Yeah, sex change surgeries.
Along with that, I'm assuming is...
So veterans got to wait for care, but if you want to chop off your schlong and invert it into a frankenginer, then you can do that.
Which will then require continued care for years.
Exactly.
Because doing something like that, you know.
The paid for abortion trips as well.
Yeah, abortion on demand is as birth control.
Obviously warrantless searches.
Which he just went over.
So, yeah, it's...
Whatever it is, it's not...
So is this American military or is this a welfare scheme?
I can't tell the difference anymore.
That's a great question.
I can't tell the difference anymore.
If you, you can't go into the military if you have flat feet, but if you want to invert your ween, then you get, get it covered.
Am I understanding this correctly?
Then not only can you come in, but yeah, we'll pay for you to do that too.
That's what passed.
Boy, that sounds real battlefield ready, doesn't it?
The military is discriminatory on purpose.
And I don't think, if you're, if you are so.
uneasy within yourself that you feel like you got to mutilate your genitals in order to
like lit function day to day. I don't think you're fit for military service. As a taxpayer,
I can say this. You have every right to say this. And I'm just going to say that I think it
probably doesn't bode well for overall, you know, service health. I can't be dealing with that.
Don't forget, 600 million solid for Ukraine. By the way, through 2025, which means they plan on this,
going until
2025?
Apparently.
Ukraine, Russia stuff?
Yeah, apparently they do.
Apparently they, because they got a lot of money to launder.
It's lunacy.
Over there.
They have a lot, I was, they have a lot of, a lot of money to launder.
Zolensky was in D.C. shaking everybody down,
doing his, doing his Oliver Twist routine.
Because we know that some of the money actually went to pensions and things like,
just give us a, they don't even tell you what you're paying for.
I mean, this is a lot of money, a lot of taxpayer dollars.
Nobody's just owed it.
Nobody's owed this.
You're not owed all this taxpayer money.
But they don't even give you like a running estimate of it.
None of that.
Audio sound like four.
Listen to this.
This is Zelensky.
Talking about this, listen.
What do you say to critics who are saying that?
I say such person from government or mayors
Think about the war, think about how to defend our people.
Don't travel through the world each day.
Travel to the front line.
Ask people, ask soldiers what they need.
Do this.
Not build roads for today.
Don't do it.
Spend all your money to the weapon, to the drones,
to the society, to the pensions, and etc.
And don't cry.
Because you are leaders.
And that's it.
That's why.
That's why we are and that's why we stay because mostly people, people are not crying.
People stay and fight against Putin and we don't have any enemies in our country.
We can't have and can't have time for this and we don't have it.
We have only one enemy. This is Putin.
But go back to the other P word though, the pensions.
What? What is he talking about there?
Spend all your money?
on pensions. What? I just, I don't, I think because no one has ever told us what our money goes for,
and there's no answer when you ask people, what does victory look like? They can't really tell you
because that area of the Dombus region is so disputed. Noting this, by the way, does not mean that you
love pillow-Mickface commie-head over there. You know, Vladimir Putin, old stanky-leg McPillow face,
who probably has body doubles. One of those dudes that I saw without a chin, that dude looked like a body
double. Did you see that? See the photo from the side? I mean, it went right down into that dude's neck.
Right down his like bottom lip went right to his neck. I've never seen that. Have you ever seen
that before? I was like, is this an optical? That's that dude's face. That was a body double.
That's a body double. I sound like my mother. Oh my gosh. Just the realization just washed over me.
I'm telling you
maybe
let me get it out
gosh dang it
it's buried under my stuff
hang on
I'm live on here
do it
do it right now
you want me to do it
yes
got to get it out
I want to do it right now
do it
this tin foil hat moment

And right now
Believe it or not, they have a code.
Code Dana.
All your purchases.
Yeah, get your discount.
You guys think I'm joking.
This hat literally, I can put my phone in it and it doesn't ring.
Imagine what it does when the government's trying to reach your brain waves.
Dude, he has a body double.
Yeah.
This Putin thing, I saw a photo.
It was supposed to be him meeting with some leader.
His chin.
He had no chin.
The real Vladimir Putin has a chin.
This guy, I've never, he had no chin.
and it went all the way right down to his neck.
I don't even know how you live like that.
I'm aligned with you 100%.
I think governments have been putting body doubles in place for certain things for many, many years.
His ear was shaped differently.
I spent 40 minutes on my life looking at this.
I feel like I'm an expert now.
Is the Biden that we see bumbling and fumbling everything?
Okay, I didn't look at him, but I don't know.
That's the real Biden?
I don't know.
Okay, I haven't gone to that level yet.
But I'm just wondering, like he was talking about pensions and everything.
I'm like, what about that other P word to Putin?
Because, you know, it's a very disputed area there, the Dombus region.
But if he's not in, if he's not, I mean, does he,
once in the last time anybody saw the actual Putin?
And by the way, it was just months ago, like month and a half, two months ago,
we were hearing about his incredibly horrible health situation.
His leg all.
So my dog has what we call a stanky leg because he had back surgery.
Putin also has a stanky leg.
Is my dog.
Putin.
Someone would call it a limp.
But yeah, it's, it's, uh, it's something to consider.
No, it's not a limp.
He just kicks it like right out.
He has no idea it's right.
Oh, some of Putin, but yeah.
He's no idea it's even there.
Yeah, but I mean, I wouldn't be surprised to find out and get confirmation that there's body
devils for leaders like Putin.
All I know is I saw a dude who was pretending to be Putin and he had no chin.
And his shirt was like right up underneath it.
It looked like if you have a Barbie doll and its head falls off.
and if you're a little kid and you took it to your grandpa to fix,
and grandpa, you know,
grandpa's a hammer and everything's a nail.
Man, he would just cram that Barbie's head,
and the Barbie looked fat because her head was right on her collarbone.
And that's what this guy's chin looked like.
And I've never gone down such a rabbit hole
based on one characteristic in my entire life.
Now, Juan's showing you, dude, his face,
he looks like an old baby.
Yeah, I don't see this body double wrestling bears
are diving for treasure.
Well, he's a lot older, though.
That side part, man, that's extreme.
But that's, you know, that's...
That looks like what I would buy at, like, Spirit Halloween
if I wanted to go as Putin.
You would buy that mask?
Yeah, that's the mask I'd probably use.
That's the mask you get.
Because it looks pretty convincing.
But you're right.
I'm just saying.
All right.
Well, that was our tinfoil hat moment.
I'm just going to keep it like this.
Again, Faradaylabs.com.
It's actually literally a Faraday Lab.
Yeah.
For your head.
Use code, Dana.
you'll love the um because the this practically you see the hat she's wearing right now she's wearing the
yeah the people on the radio can see it it's actually woven in into the fabric that's a modern day
the science of it that's a modern day it doesn't ring when it's in here it's a modern day tinfoil hat what you
have on right there it's literally it has fair day capabilities so there are no signals right now
or no nefarious no nefarious signals going to your brain right now yeah i don't understand the
science of it i'm like oh it feels like
cashmere.
That's all like,
I don't know.
All I know is when I put my phone in it,
it doesn't ring.
I kid you not.
I kid you not.
I'm saying.
I wonder like,
can you tell what I'm thinking right now, Kane?
No.
I was going to guess alcohol because that's,
that was probably.
Almost.
All right.
We got to get rolling though.
Oh my gosh.
We got headlines coming up.
I can't believe my mom's going to be like,
I'm so proud of you for talking about that for a whole segment.
I've always agreed that.
I'm in a.
it all to you, dude. I'm not even going to entertain it.
Ghaly, if you're at her work and you're listening,
don't tell her I said that. She's
coming for Christmas.
And now, all of the news
you would probably miss. It's time for
Dana's Quick Five.
So, I got to tell you,
Republicans are not messing around.
This is just out for the
run
for Santos' seat, George
Santos's seat. The GOP,
they have a nominee
announced, and this
This is pretty crazy.
This is out of ABC Channel 7, New York.
I mean, this seems like an unbeatable candidate.
Mazi Pilipp.
It's going to be in the special, what is it, February is when they're doing this,
New York's third special election to fill the seat.
Pillop is a Nassau County legislator who is an Ethiopian Jew served in the IDF,
a mother of seven.
And I asked my kid who is basically Marissa Tomei from my cousin Vinnie on guns.
What was it?
An M-16, 40-mill with a...
What was it?
The tube at the bottom?
I was like, is that a scar that she's got?
Like, what is this?
Oh, my gosh.
Like, how do you put...
That's like having all...
All the boxes checked, but it's like in Uno.
It's like having all wild cards.
All wild cards.
This is an all wild card Uno hand.
Dang.
Dang, GOP.
They're not messing around in this seat.
That's our whole headline section.
Because I was like,
oh, they're being serious about this.
Stick with us. We've got a whole lot more on the way.
Whether you're a policy wonk, a news junkie, or simply someone hungry for insightful discourse,
the Dana Show podcast has your back. Follow Dana on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast.
I oppose Senate Bill 1819 because it is a solution in search of a problem.
Simply put, 3D manufacturing of firearms would be an entirely ineffective way for a criminal to obtain a firearm.
Fourth, this bill would be an unconstitutional infringement on the First Amendment speech rights of law-abiding hobbyists and firearms enthusiasts who simply want to share specifications about unique or antique firearms.
At the end of the day, we don't have a device problem.
We've got a people problem.
And this bill represents another attempt by some to use fear and misunderstanding to layer more federal regulations on an already high level.
regulated industry. Amen to that. Preach it. Because what are they going to do next? Are they going to start
going after 3D printers? This is the Cinnibille 1819. That's the 3D printed gun safety act of
23. Ed Markey. Ed Markey. Ed Markey. A Democrat from Massachusetts introduced it, sponsored it.
It's, this has been going. They've been fighting over this since June, I think is when it first came out.
And that's, that was, by the way, that was Senator Ted Bud, who was talking about that.
in that sound bite just then.
And it is, it is
a speech issue because you're
and people aren't,
3D printers are getting more and more affordable.
But there's literally
no evidence
that shows that that's what's driving crime.
That's not what's driving crime.
Good grief. They're going after everything except
the damn thing that's driving crime.
It's like, golly, this damn
busted. Look at all this
water flooding everything.
You know what we need to do? We need to turn all the
water off in these people's houses so they don't make more water to make the flooding.
It's like that instead of doing anything about the dam that's busted. Welcome back to the show.
Dana last year with you. Bottom of this third hour. Can't believe it was already our third hour.
A couple of things I wanted to touch on. So they had, I think I had put this out. Who should? This was the
White Coast Waste Project. I don't know if you guys saw some of this. I'm kind of
fascinated by the whole thing because they've got I got to share with the I because I didn't even
know they were doing this I didn't know this was an area of study this is a little stuff that they
spend our money on so they have the EPA and I learned how to hate the EPA from Ghostbusters a lot
of people have stolen that from me I stole it from the Ghostbusters no I learned how to hate the
EPA from the Ghostbusters so they have been using taxpayer dollars
to fire 9 millimeters and M4s and have mice breathe the gun smoke to study the pulmonary
toxicity of particulate matter emitted from firearms.
Cain, your look.
What is it, Kane?
Again, they'll find any angle they can, any angle they can, whether if it's on environment
or taking away your Second Amendment rights, they're just combining this.
They're trying to make guns still a public health.
issue. That's what they're trying to do. This is check this out. They have the description,
quote, we collected smoke particulate matter from the firing of two different type guns,
nine millimeter handgun and M4 rifle. The particulate matter samples were chemically analyzed and
assessed for lung toxicity and lung function in CD1 mice via aura finis
all the little aspiration.
So they breed
in this stuff. And
would you all determine?
You morons?
That's what they're doing. They're using tax.
I want to know how much
Tags, it's White Coast Waste Project that found it.
I'm terrified to look at their website because I'm going to get so
mad. I just don't even want to look at it.
But they look, it's animal testing. They look
at how much, you know,
how much is tested on animal testing and I'm not big
on, yeah, well, I've got to tell you
story. Oh my gosh. I can't even believe I
got this far into the show and I didn't even tell you this. I'm not big on animal testing.
I have a, I don't, I don't really want to go down this road. But I don't, I feel like that we should do,
if we're going to test anything on anybody, it should be on like rapists and child molesters and
violent serial killers. Then we should use them as human lab rats. I'm not kidding. That's what I
firmly believe. Anyway, so I'm not all, I'm not so much on testing on animals. But yeah, this is
we're spending money to make this, to make firearms a, they're desperately trying to make it a
health issue. Desperately trying to make this a health issue. Okay, can I tell you this story what
happened yesterday? It's not on the rundown and I wasn't going to talk about it. So we're,
because you guys know, I feel like all animals love me and whenever I'm in nature, I feel like snow
white, except like if I'm out for summer sausage, then look out because I'm hungry. And I want,
I mean, I don't have any, I don't have no summer sausage right now this year. I was like,
bear get up out in the woods and fix it. And I told my husband at one point, because I just haven't had,
I've been like hunting twice, literally in my life. My husband and son have gone. And they haven't,
they haven't been able to go out this year. I know. And I'm like, I'm just, and I was just musing out loud.
I wasn't saying this as a serious thing. And I told my husband, I'm like, oh my gosh, I just wish I could go
and get some fun of the son. He's like, yeah, it's the woods. I'm like, I know that, smart aleck.
Anyway, long story short, my son was outside and I'm like getting ready because I host a Christmas party, right?
We have our radio people that come out and, you know, I host a Christmas party.
And getting ready for the party and getting things set up.
And I just don't have time for a lot right now.
And my son is standing on the porch.
And my other son who's home from college is looking outside and he's like he's got an animal.
And my first thought was, oh, yay, a fun new friend.
I'm so excited.
You know, I'm like, you're free pet.
And I opened the door, and he's got this squirrel in his hand.
And he's got, he's holding the squirrel's like neck.
And it's like leg, it's back.
I have no idea why I tracked animals with gimpy legs, but I do.
And its back leg was like all gimpy.
And I'm gesticulating, for those of you listening.
And it was weird and it was like jerky.
I feel like it had a neurological thing happening.
It was, I think it was clearly dying.
and my son was like, what are we going to do?
And I'm like, what are we going to do?
What are you going to?
Oh, my gosh, I don't know what to do.
It was very cute.
But I also know that it's a tree rat and they have really sharp teeth.
And so I'm like, well, good grief.
And my husband was just not into it.
He was already like at the end.
He was short-tempered that day yesterday and displeased and short-tempered.
And so we're dealing with this issue.
And he's like, you know, we hunt these damn things.
and I'm like, I don't know what to do.
Like, you know, he feels like he rescued the squirrel.
I don't know.
And so I call Animal Control.
And Animal Control's like, oh, yeah, I'm like, look, I realize that, you know, I come
from the Ozarks, we eat these things.
I literally had an uncle that experimented with his brand new dehydrator that he was
super excited to get and made squirrel jerky, which was basically like cracklins.
I'm not joking you.
It was basically like cracklins from Long John Silver's, but I digress.
I'm like, I just don't know what the hell to do here.
And I'm like, do I shoot it?
I, you know, I can't really, you know, I.
I got a 22.
I can plink it right between that.
I'm like, what do I do?
And they're like, oh, well, hey, they gave me the number of this nature habitat thing.
Like, we need more squirrels out there.
And they gave me the number of this very sweet lady who had the most amazing Texas drawl that I've ever heard.
And she lived like an hour away from me.
And I'm, and that's when, that's when the, you know, the truth saw the light.
I'm like, look, I ain't driving an hour one way in rush hour traffic.
when I'm trying to do all before the squirrel that's totally going to die
because I was looking at it and it was just all herky jerky and weird
and it was totally dead.
I'm like, I'm not going to do it.
So I'm like, you know, son, you got to, I mean, I can put this thing out of its misery,
old school style, you know, we ended up, I didn't get to do that.
It went on, it went on a lake trip.
Nobody put it in the lake.
It just, you know, was put back into nature because there was nothing we could do.
And the lady was like, oh my gosh, whatever you do,
just get it out of his hands because if it comes out of shock, I don't think, I think it was like
dying. I don't think there was anything that you could do because I've seen, I've had, I have
animal loving family members that have rehabilitated squirrels. This one looked so far gone.
I mean, it just didn't look right. Something was seriously wrong. It was like a neurological thing.
It couldn't jump. It couldn't walk straight. It was just so messed up. And I mean, I don't know.
It was sad.
Then I was all depressed.
And I'm like, oh, my gosh.
Like, did I not do enough for the squirrel?
You know, then the little good angel comes on my shoulder, the one I usually beat down into, like, deep into my soul.
And the good angel appeared and was like, you know, Dina, you should have the squirrel.
And I started feeling bad about it.
And then my son was like, you know, because we do.
We donate a lot to animals, to shelters and all this stuff.
Again, it's not stuff that I talk about because this book of Matthew.
We do. We support a lot of shelters, pay a lot of vet bills for shelters and all this stuff.
And they're like, so it's one. And my son was like, so it's one squirrel.
You know, and this squirrel looked pretty bad, mom. And he's like, and look at, you know, we've taken care of Rocco.
And look at all the other stuff we do. And we've taken care of a scorpion. And I'm like, yes, we did.
So I don't know. I feel okay. But there's still part of me that was like, the snow white part of me that was like, I'll take care of you.
And then it's squirrel. I'll be your friend squirrel. See, that was like that.
So thoughts came?
When I was younger, I, you know,
you find baby squirrels and you want to do the little feed them, you know, with the bottle.
No, I never did that.
Oh, yeah, no, I did that as a kid because we lived in a neighborhood where that's all we had.
We're just nothing but tree rats in the back.
And there was baby ones that.
Tree carp.
Right.
But the baby ones that would fall out of the tree or whatever.
Yeah.
Well, those if they're like stunned.
Yeah.
I remember taking care of a couple of them as a kid.
But I caught a field mouse once and brought it in my house.
since it started it when I was a kid.
Have you seen the videos, though,
of some squirrels going just nuts on people?
Like, yeah.
That's,
that one,
the lady I was on the phone with God lover.
She was like,
now you need to get that out of his hands
because,
uh,
it will chew through the bone.
And she is like so loud and her voices,
I cannot do a Texas drawl to save my life.
It's so much different from like a regular Southern accent.
And I mean,
she was like very adamant about it.
I'm like,
uh,
and I can only imagine like us driving to take
this damn squirrel in and it's it's it's I put it in a box with a blanket and I just shut it I didn't
know what else to do I'm like um and I'm like I can just imagine us one hour in rush hour and this
thing gets out and the box is shaking and it's everything's going to hell I can only imagine
luckily it didn't go down that way no my husband the entire time is looking at me like a man
watches his wife not back into a parking space
With the same level of frustration and just disappointment.
Is that not back into a parking space?
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
Well, we're trying to, you know.
Like, if you, I just regularly pull in and I cannot do that to save my life.
I can, anyway.
So, and he was, he's just like, we eat these.
I'm like, we don't.
You do.
We don't.
So, oh my gosh.
And it's true.
Like, my grandpa would go squirrel hunt all the time.
Like, I'm not, but this is different because we, huh?
Have you had squirrel?
had squirrel. Yes, I've had squirrel. I've eaten
everything. Foxtail
squirrels. I mean, I've eaten gator.
I've eaten squirrel. I've eaten
everything. I mean, I don't know if there's anything that I have
it. The only thing I won't do, though, is the snail
stuff. Oh, the escar. Oh, that's like boogers.
That's like boogers. That's a vehicle for butter.
That's all it is. Shunky snut, right?
Yeah, it's like, I've been sick. I don't want it
as a feature entree or appetizer.
You know, I don't know. I'm sorry if I just ruined your meal
tonight, but it's true. Anyway, so that's my story. And I don't know why I thought of that with this,
because the animal testing thing. That's why. But I just, but I still feel bad. I'm like,
I'll take care of these squirrel. I still, there's a part of me that's like, did you do everything
you could have? Did you? I just, that's in my head and I want to punch it. That voice so bad. I want
to take my good angel and just pommel her right now. I don't know. I feel like I did everything I could have,
right? I want to isolate that audio. I just want to
to punch my good angel.
But I mean, I don't know.
And it was, and my son, my oldest son is also like, he's like goes out,
nature loves him.
Nature's like, yay.
Like he goes out and all the hard shots.
Like if he's hunting becomes super easy to him, it's like he has aim assist on.
I don't know.
It's weird.
So I'm like, how are you like this?
In real life.
Yeah, in real life.
Like shots that nobody else.
makes, he's like, pop.
It's like, I don't get it.
All right, all right, all right.
We got to get moving.
Oh, where it is happening?
It's almost Christmas is why.
All right.
I should eat half a bag of Super Beach just to see what happens, right?
Then I'll go outside and all the animals will be like, we love you.
It's okay that you didn't read that squirrel.
I don't know what.
I'm so sorry.
Oh my gosh.

Thank you. I want to ask you about inflation.
So you mentioned the prices of eggs, milk, and gas are down over the past year.
But what do you say to Americans who are looking at the month the President Biden came into office,
eggs are up 24 percent, milk is up 17 percent, all types of gas is up 37 percent,
and the prices overall are up 17 percent.
So the president actually spoke to this not too long ago, I believe, on Tuesday, actually,
just a couple days ago.
and he says we know there's more work to be done, right?
And that things are still unaffordable.
And so while the prices...
Can he wants to know why she's cosplaying as a John Deere tractor?
So what he said?
He goes, look at her.
She looks like a four-ton tractor.
I don't know.
I don't know how much tractors weigh.
I mean, I just, I don't.
My family was poor, okay?
They got old rusty ones.
I just said she's got her John Deer color.
Yeah, it's like she's team John Deer today.
I don't, what was that
eye shadow though? Did you catch
that color? Did you catch that color?
Was that a pink
glaring? Her eyes shift so much
I just stopped looking at her face.
I just, I'm not gonna, I'm not hating.
I'm just,
it's like a, just like a seven-up can.
It's okay.
I'm not hating at all.
I can't get over the Christmas decorations.
All right, so tomorrow,
I was going to get into it today,
but we ran out of time with my squirrel story.
So, we got to,
talk tomorrow about this movie that reimagines what happens if there's the civil war in modern
America right now. And it's so dumb. And you can tell these people don't have any idea. They've
never left Los Angeles. The people who wrote this movie, we're going to make fun of it tomorrow.
We're going to have a full house tomorrow. It's going to be crazy tomorrow. Last show of the year.
All right. Today in Stupidity, Kane. All right. This is something we played in the first hour
of the show. This is a, well, let's be real about it. This is a gentleman who's been doing
hormone therapy to be a woman and testifying in front of a congressional committee that apparently
these will be his new abilities. Listen.
About biology, I've been on hormone therapy since July of last year. And I look different.
I smell different. My physical capabilities have changed. And when my breasts finally develop,
I can actually lactate in nurse babies. No, no, you can't. And nor should you ever. That's not what that is.
Stop pooping on science.
That's...
Well, yeah, there it go.
Folks, that does it for us today.
Make sure you sign up for the newsletter over at Sub-Sag chapter and verse.
Have a great evening.
Oh, by the way, we're awarding a member of the YouTube chat.
Cain's Renaissance drawing that I did.
It's a masterpiece.
You're going to make millions on it.
