Starting point is 00:00:00 Like I said, the biggest tax cut in the history of our country. And it would be the biggest tax increase if the Democrats are successful. They're the only people I've ever seen running for office where they want to increase taxes. But this would be a 58, maybe a 60% tax increase, unsustainable for the American people. Thank you very much, great John. There you go. She's the most powerful woman in the world. So we've got in there talking with this cabinet.
Starting point is 00:00:29 I, that's what I wanted to hear. I wanted to hear about tax cuts. I don't care what I got to wade through. I want to hear about the tax cuts. That's what I want to hear. Like, what are we going to get? What are we going to get from these Republicans? Because so far, instead of getting those, you know, tax relief, all we are getting is, you know, some of what Chip Roy talked about yesterday, this car registration. And then I got all these like Bush leaguers out there saying, yeah, we got to start paying women to have the babies. And I'm like, that's welfare. Oh, we love welfare. I mean, that's like, I guess, the new, for the, for the Bush League Republicans, they love them some welfare. You can't drag them hard enough. Welcome back to the program. We're at a top
Starting point is 00:01:17 of a new day, top of the first hour, here on Wednesday, as my granny would say. It is raining and is storming in Texas. So I'm just going to give you guys a heads up because sometimes it'll rain and then all Hades breaks loose. And the power may go out. Like the other day, the power went out right when we started. And so it took us a little bit to get the visual up. You know, we got a small crew.
Starting point is 00:01:41 And it's been raining and pouring. My poor dog Wick is terrified. He's terrified of the rain. Terrified of it. So, I don't know. so if for by some chance you're watching and then all of a sudden all the lights go out it's because we lost power and our generator kicked in and it took us months to get fixed that's a whole other situation but anyway uh so just FYI because there's like 50 50 chance it's Texas you know things get crazy real quick so I just wanted to let you guys know because it has happened before uh so welcome to the program top of this top of this very very first hour and potis is having his uh his his his cabinet meeting the gang's all there now absent is musk now not that's kind of by plan i don't want people to think because a lot of you have asked me this everything that i've read he's and what he
Starting point is 00:02:36 said publicly is that they you know he was always going to pull back going in uh going into may right is it may first is what it was i thought he was starting he was going to start pulling back he had his people in place and he was going to start pulling back I think he's also putting more effort, pushing more effort back into, well, his physical effort. He's more back at Tesla, SpaceX, et cetera. So, but he's got his people still there. I think they're in the Eisenhower administrative building in D.C. And so he's got people there, so that's, that's, they're still carrying on with Doge work.
Starting point is 00:03:16 And he's checking in and he's talking to POTUS and he's still there when needs be. but it was, it was never going to be where Elon Musk was going to be a constant fixture. So just, you know, don't let the left try to go, oh, look, there's evidence that Trump and Musk don't like each other. That's not, that's like so not even accurate at all, at all. So this is, we got them talk, got the cabinet meeting. They're briefing the president on everything that's been that they've accomplished in the first 100 days and now we need to do the big thing and we need to make sure that we get this we get a budget done we need to make sure that we have permanent tax cuts otherwise everybody's going to have a tax hike I was
Starting point is 00:04:02 talking to our friend one of our friends Vegas Larry he just had to pay I don't even want to say the amount of taxes he just had to pay I almost vomited it just it just was a gut And especially considering everything that happened with U.S. aid, so people want tax relief. And we talked about that yesterday and how that ties into the polling, et cetera. So this, just saying, it's, we're in for a fight from everything that I've heard from congressional Republicans. Let's talk about last night. He had a rally in Michigan. And he called Big Gretsch on stage.
Starting point is 00:04:42 Audio sound bite five. She didn't want to come up on stage. She didn't have a folder in her hand. He called Big Gretsch because he's in Michigan. And I think he's, I want to be real careful with us for one large purpose. But I think two things to consider. First, I think he's being magnanimous. And he's saying, look, we can get along.
Starting point is 00:05:07 Look how reasonable I am. I'm bringing her up on stage. And it infuriates Democrats. it infuriates the right Democrats because Big Gretch, as you know, has 2028 aspirations. Now, if her base thinks that she's liked by Trump, they're going to hate her, right? And moderate Dems will ratchet up attacks on her because they're going to be looking at her as trying to kickstart 2028 a little too early. That being said, you don't want to praise your ideological opponent even when you agree too terribly much because you risk elevated. them over your own lasting legacy going into 2028. So very careful give and take here with all of
Starting point is 00:05:49 this. But let's play this. This is audio. This is up here. Audio sound bite. I just had it in my five. Yeah, that's right. Big grudge. Audio sum by five. Listen. Well, I hadn't planned to speak, but I'm on behalf of all the military men and women who serve our country and serve so honorably on behalf of the state of Michigan. It's not a wall's hat. It's really damn happy. We're here to celebrate this recapitalization at Selfridge. It's crucial for the Michigan economy. It's crucial for the men and women here for our homeland security
Starting point is 00:06:19 and our future. So, thank you. I'm so grateful that this announcement is made today. And I appreciate all the work. Thank you. I thought she'd like run away. Oh, no. What are you laughing about? It's like she almost said, I'm grateful for this announcement.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Yes, I'm very so grateful. grateful for oh this announcement i'm so happy about that yeah yeah yeah yeah so that's um that was very funny because he called her up on stage last night his speech last night was funny he was talking about somebody's figure a man's figure what was i for who i don't know who he was talking about but it was funny i watched some of it but okay so the other big thing that happened like right as he was taking to the stage so did you hear what happened with doug emhoff they're calling it Kamala Harris's last big embarrassment. So he was fired.
Starting point is 00:07:16 He got fired by the Trump administration from the Holocaust Memorial Council, which oversees the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. And, I mean, typically members of the council that are appointed by the president and they serve about five-year terms. And so, as you know, Doug M.hoff is Mr. Kamala Harris. and he was appointed by Biden, and Trump removed him and several other Biden appointees, according to the Hill. And this was late yesterday when this emerged, when this news emerged. So it was late yesterday.
Starting point is 00:07:52 He was kicked off, Biden appointees removed from the Holocaust board, and he was livid. Now, I understand kind of the thinking on it, because here you have an increase in targeting of Jewish students on college campuses around the country, just Jewish students, but under Biden Harris's disastrous reign, let's not forget that you had the snitch squad that was peeking into temples to see, oh boy, there better not be any Jews in there, you know, practicing their faith because everybody's supposed to be social distancing and locking down. You guys remember that? That was crazy to make sure that they were following COVID mandates. They were in New York. They were literally walking and peeking into temple. windows. There's video of like, I just called them a snitch squad because did we ever figure out
Starting point is 00:08:43 who the hell they were? Aren't they, weren't they with like the health board or something or it was like police and then health whatever? Like the people who go and are like, do you watch your hands when you're making this burger at restaurants like the health squad? I don't care. You don't need to tell me. Nobody needs to tweet me or email me. But the whole point in this is that he, Emhoff was removed. He's livid over this. And he apparently he's been criticized before because by now I'm not I don't get into arguments of doctrine of faiths that I do not practice but he was criticized by other Jewish leaders because they said he had and this was back in 23 he had botched the Hanukkah story on social media that's kind of a big one you know by the way right as I just said that you guys may not have heard this but the thunder rang out in the sky. It was, ooh, right? Mm. Dun, dun, dun. He apparently got the Hanukkah story wrong. This is back in 2023. He posted an image of himself in Harris Lighting a menorah. And then he had
Starting point is 00:09:54 his version of the events. And apparently, again, I'm not going to be the gatekeeper for a faith I don't practice. But he, I remember this. It trended. He was dragged because he, he, They accused him of getting it wrong and only focusing on Jews hiding and some oil. And everyone's like, yeah, no, that's not. There's a lot more. What is the matter with you? People were saying, including, I think this was a contributor over at CNN, I really hope that he left this to some hapless and uneducated intern who couldn't even be bothered to consult Wikipedia. Eight days of hiding.
Starting point is 00:10:33 Yikes, man. Ooh, yeah. Because that's pretty much all. Yeah, it was pretty. like deleting stuff it was a big bigger deal so but this uh that yeah it was bad so he's removed so he's removed from this and he said this is what he tweets let me pull this up oh he had a big of statement i know we got to get moving okay let me share let me do headlines and then we're going to come back because i'm going to touch on this then we have uh another more uh updates on
Starting point is 00:11:02 the budget battle i will always carry a firearm and i have no problem using lethal force i and i live in Texas and I don't really like to go to gun-free zones. Unfortunately, I have some, I have some friends who unfortunately live in gun-free areas because they have to. They're big kids and they've got to go to work, right? One of my friends lives in D.C. And they went and got that very difficult to get licensed to carry. But even then, they can't carry hardly anywhere because you got all of these municipal restrictions. And then on top of it, you'll have private party or private property restrictions that ban the people from taking a firearm to protect themselves. And so my friend, by the nature of their work, and yes, they do work with
Starting point is 00:11:40 the press, you know, they're up pretty late at night filing stories. And at 11 o'clock, you know, going back to their car, they don't want to become a statistic. So they went and got a Berna SD. Now, Burna makes different models. The SD, I think, for this purpose, is the one that I highly recommend. Because if you're barred from carrying, you want to make sure that you diversify your weapons array. I mean, for crying out loud, you carry blades and you have different calibers. Why not something like this? It shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away. And like I said, There's different models. There's different projectiles. The SD is the most popular one. And for good reason, it's, you know, pistol. And you can carry it. I mean, it's carried on your person. It's, there's no recoil. It's easy target acquisition. You have five rounds as opposed to like one or two with a, like a regular stun gun. So quick deployment. And it's legal in all 50 states. Here's the thing. It doesn't care about gun-free zone signs. There's no background check. There's no waiting period. It can be shipped right to your front porch.

Starting point is 00:14:35 Terry, but you're not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattoos. We'll agree to disagree. I want to move on to something else. Terry. Punch him. Do you want me to show you the picture? I saw the picture. I saw it. And you think it was photoshop? Here we go. Here we go. Don't Photoshop, but go look at his hand. He had M. 13. He did have tattoos that can be interpreted that way. I'm not an expert on them. I want to turn to Ukraine. No, no, no. He had M.S. as clear as you can be, not interpreted. This is why people no longer believe. well the news because when he was photographed in el salvador they aren't there but let's just go they aren't there when he's in oh they were there now right no but they're in your picture terry ukraine sir he's got ms 13 on his knuckles all right ukraine sir okay we'll take a look
Starting point is 00:15:22 it's you just such a disservice we'll take a look at that sir why don't you just say it yes he does and you know go on to something else it's contested so this is one of my favorite exchanges i wish that He had MS-13 on his knuckles. I mean, come on, Terry. Terry! He had MS-13. That's a viral video reference. It's probably too much.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Oh, welcome back. We got a lot of audio today. So that's, I told you I was going to make it up for you by Rob and you guys at Quick Five. That was my bad because I was just wouldn't shut up. That's my problem. Who knew? So everyone was saying that he did, so Trump was, who was Terry Moran with? Is he with, is he with ABC? Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:09 So this, so everyone was saying that MS-13 was added to the photo because the symbols that he has on his knuckles, and it was marijuana, what was the other one? It was like the ex-smiley face across in a skull that that is basically the emojis that mean MS-13, right? Yeah. Like how the eggplant means something, and, you know, the peach means something, and, you know, different emojis mean things. Okay, so they're not really emojis, but those symbols mean MS-13. And so when they had the photo, apparently the photo was, okay, this means M and this means S. This is what it stands for.
Starting point is 00:16:57 And they're explaining what the tattoos symbolize. and so wait so let me break this down because I'm not letting this go either and I love that he stopped and he's like all right Terry there's Trump with it right there so the MS-13 that's on it
Starting point is 00:17:14 those symbols are literally like indicted those symbols mean MS-13 that's what they mean that each of the images stand for something that translates to MS-13 and so Terry Moran
Starting point is 00:17:29 was trying to argue I guess that that wasn't that he didn't have any kind of identifier tattooed on him and Trump's like, no, no, no. If the media wants to sit here and picknits about, oh, well, it didn't specifically say, you know, it's still the same thing. You know, just like those numb nuts saying Maryland dad. You know what I'm saying? Oh, that Maryland man. Oh, yes, you mean the gang banging wife beater. Yes, that one. He's an El Salvadoran man, but okay. See what I mean? Like if you guys can sit here, if the media can sit here and try to
Starting point is 00:18:07 BS us about this, oh, this poor gang-banging wife beating Maryland man, then yeah, we're going to go ahead and say might as well had like literally the actual Arabic MS-13 on it. Shut up. So stupid. Just absolutely assinine. So I'm glad that he stopped there. I mean, for the, and the left was trying to make a big deal of this. Kane, you saw this. They were trying to make a big deal of this all last night, all last night. Oh my gosh. Can you believe? Trump's that. I didn't think of this right. But it's, but it's not wrong, right? That's so goofy. It's like saying, well, those moving snakes on the Harry Potter figures, they're not really indicative of death eaters. They are because none of the other, nobody else has them unless they're
Starting point is 00:18:52 death eaters. See, same thing. I did that. I went to a Harry Potter reference. Just saying movie snake 13 yeah yeah so these are like ruins that mean MS 13 that's what it is I thought the interview was funny but yeah he was I mean this it was a very contentious interview and I thought it was stupid that Terry Moran was even trying to like contest that and then he realized the futility of it and he's like oh maybe I should move on yeah Terry maybe ought to maybe I ought to move on Terry I mean it's just It's just so stupid. Audio Sunday 13. And this is where Trump argues with him because, remember, the media pretended,
Starting point is 00:19:36 gosh, we didn't even know that Biden was half dead. We had no clue. Listen to this. Do you think the reputation of the United States has gone down under your presence? No, I think it's got way up, but I think we're a respected country again. We were left at all over the world. We had a president that couldn't walk up a flight of stairs, couldn't walk down a flight of stairs, couldn't walk down a flight of stairs, couldn't walk a across the stage without falling. We had a president that was grossly incompetent. You knew it,
Starting point is 00:20:03 I knew it, and everybody knew it, but you guys didn't want to write it because you're fake news. All right. Thank you. By the way, ABC is one of the worst. I have to be honest with you. Thank you. Okay. Thank you. Yes, thank you. Yeah, you guys didn't want to write about it because you're fake news. I mean, they were, I mean, Biden falls up the stairs. I told you this yesterday. How, oh my gosh, Biden stuttered with his feet? I've never seen anybody to do that. Man, that man stuttered all the way the hell up them stairs with his feet. I've never seen anybody do that before. But they did.
Starting point is 00:20:35 That's how all of them were. And I'm glad that, I'm glad that POTUS called it out because the media's been going on. Like, oh, we just didn't know. We were just this little innocent media. We were tripped just like the rest of you. What do you mean? What? You all knew.
Starting point is 00:20:49 You all knew the man really didn't have a pulse. You all knew he was just a skin suit and Jill Biden had her hand up his backside. Come on. It's like a sock puppy. it. Is it too mean? Because I don't, I just don't even care. I'm just so dumb with this stuff. These people try to pull so much wool over our eyes. I just feel like all civility is out the window at this point, right? Good heavens. I mean, it was, it was a really good. It was a very good interview. But this is, this is, this is audio somebody 14. They were arguing over, uh, Putin,
Starting point is 00:21:20 listen. He's willing to stop the fighting. Don't forget, he wants peace. You think he wants You think Vladimir Putin wants peace? I think he does, yes. I think he does. I think because of the raining missiles on. I think he really, his dream was to take over the whole country. I think because of me, he's not going to do that. Do you trust him?
Starting point is 00:21:43 Do you trust him? I don't trust you. I don't trust a lot of people. I don't trust you. Look at you. You come in all shooting for bear. You're so happy to do the interview. I am happy.
Starting point is 00:21:52 And then you start hitting me with fake questions. He saw telling me that a guy. whose hand is covered with a tattoo doesn't have the tattoo, you know. In so many ways, Trump is like an old nana, you know, like, oh, no, but, you know, I'm going to come back to this because I'm not over it. And like 10 years later, yeah, remember that time, the knuckles? I remember that. Like, it's never going to go away. Oh, but good.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Oh, then there was the eggs, eggs, eggs. Audios still. I used to my 15. But gasoline is way down. And when I took over, you remember the big thing with eggs. They hit me the first week. Eggs, eggs, eggs, like it was my fault. I said, I didn't cause this problem.
Starting point is 00:22:32 This problem was caused by Biden. What's the problem with eggs? And they said, they've doubled. Well, eggs are down 87% since I got involved. I love it. Do you know one of the things, kind of a sidebar, an accompaniment to this? One of the reasons that Trump can get, there's two reasons that Trump can get away with rough housing journalists that other politicians can't.
Starting point is 00:22:54 because he's he's very much a showman and I think that was on state I think there was evident on stage last night he really loves his audience and his audience loves him but older people I am jealous of you because you guys get to do whatever you want and this is why Kane doesn't this is why Kane doesn't like you so he doesn't he thinks you're not innocent he thinks you're not innocent it's because of this because he can he's he's he's you know you give him a pass he's like he's like a grandpa or Oh, they're like a Nana's age, right? Like they're, you give him a pass, right? It's just funny. And I feel like Terry Moran actually liked him. Did you see his expression in this interview? I mean, he wasn't smiling like he was being a wise A double snakes. I think he liked him.
Starting point is 00:23:41 He was thankful to be insulted. Yeah, he was just happy to be there, man. However you want to kick him. I mean, Terry's, Terry, he's just happy for that big break, man. He's like, you guys are fake news. He's like, thank you. He's like, thank you, Mr. President. By the way, ABC's the worst.
Starting point is 00:23:54 He's like, thank you, Mr. President. Thank you. We are. Thank you, Mr. President. There's so, oh, there's so, okay, here's another one where it got a little, little testy, testy. Audio soundbite 11. They were arguing over fraud referrals from Doge. A legal note fraud is a crime.
Starting point is 00:24:14 There have been no referrals to the Justice Department at any. Well, you don't know that, do you? How do you know that? Have there been referrals to that? Why have we do you know that? that there were no referrals. I think there were referrals. There's been no investigation from the
Starting point is 00:24:29 how do you know that? I'm asking you, sir. No, you're not asking me. You made a statement. You're not asking you. That was a statement that you made. There had been. I'm asking you. Have there been? Yes, they have. Well, I mean, he did. He was like, okay, well, now I'm asking you. Okay, so you did make a statement. And then you're, okay, that's exactly, you just proved his point.
Starting point is 00:24:48 Terry, what are you doing? What are you doing? Terry? My gosh. This is full. This is so crazy I mean, is this just one of the craziest interviews Because he just said there I really feel like he likes being kicked man He likes being kicked around
Starting point is 00:25:03 We got more of this I also want to So the Because I told you I was going to follow up on this After headlines So Trump had fired Doug Emhoff The second gentleman
Starting point is 00:25:16 I don't know That dude Kamala's husband Kamala was his second or third wife I can't remember Anyway, and he got fired from the Holocaust Council that governs the Holocaust Museum. Oh, man, he was raging on the social media. He said, this is what he wrote.
Starting point is 00:25:34 Here's his point, or his post, quote. Today, I was informed of my removal from the United States Holocaust Memorial Council. Let me be clear. By the way, that is always a statement that a jack wagon is about to wagon jacks. That's what that means. He goes, let me be clear. Remembrance and education should never be politicized to turn one of the worst atrocities, blah, blah, blah, wedge issue, dishonors, blah, blah, blah, Emhoff.
Starting point is 00:26:01 So you did make it political, though. Like, you made it political when you refused to condemn the targeting of Jewish students and college campuses all around the nation. You made it political when you refused to speak up for the Americans and Jewish citizens that were kidnapped by Hamas in a terrorist. atrocity. I mean, where was the, he, these people get their panties in a wad more over Trump than they do over actual terrorists. So yeah, and you know what? It's the president's
Starting point is 00:26:32 discretion. It is, it is up to his pleasure whether or not you are on a council or not. And I don't want this guy on the council. I'd rather have somebody you know, that has a little bit of self-respect and doesn't slap women in a valet line. And I'm just saying, because you know, remember he did that. Can I, okay,

I'm like just good grief but I yeah my favorite was the subhead she's repeatedly compared his voice to a dying cow fart I did it one time but now I'm going to do it like a million times but he goes I'm glad I got under her skin and then he they told him they go well you she said that you sounded like a dying cow fart and he goes well why doesn't she just shoot me and he goes he's like I really don't want anybody to shoot me. Don't take it seriously. Oh, shut up. But like, why, like, why are you a fascist if you buy a Tesla? That's so stupid. I thought he was supposed to be smart. But then I

I'm sorry if you love Neil Young that, I mean, what I just played for you there, I'm just going to play the same five cent chords down strumming down, blah, blah, blah. I mean, I can do that. Why are you laughing? It's true. Why is it, if you buy a Tesla, you're a fascist. If you say that you're a fascist because you have a Tesla, you're short of some brain cells. It was only a year ago where it was you're a climate terrorist if you don't own a Tesla. Like make up your all's mind. Doesn't make any sense. We have a lot more on the way coming up.

Starting point is 00:34:16 I really want to know like let us also know sir welcome back it's a she it's ma'am welcome back to the program Dana lash with you top of the second hour POTUS was marking his first 100 days with a big Michigan rally now he's at he's at the cabinet meeting I didn't see Elon Musk there earlier but he is there we're going to play some audio here in a minute but welcome back you can listen all across the country
Starting point is 00:34:43 channel 347 direct TVs to stream the chats at roble x and youtube and facebook also uh apparent so okay they're at the cabinet meeting and everybody's they got these hats they all get these hats that say gulf of america now my question is there's red hats and blue hats like navy hats navy blue do they get both hats or did they just stagger them the colors like that one you know red blue red blue to you know look nice or do they each get a hat now Elon must is wearing both of them he's stacked the hats he's got a hat stack
Starting point is 00:35:19 I sound like Christopher walking he's got a hat stack cane and he was asked about that POTUS was asking him at this cabinet meeting that they're at so he's there you know all the media is going to be like the most upset with the fact that he's there
Starting point is 00:35:34 so this is him he's got two hats and Trump asks him about it watch thank you very much I love the double hat but Yeah. She always wanted to get away with it. Well, Mr. President, that they say I wear a lot of hats. That's true.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Even my hat has a hat. Those are like big hats, too. Like the big. They used to not, that style of hat used to not be popular. Now it is. Now everybody's wearing that style of hat. So he's there at the cabinet meeting. And hopefully, I, because I know that they've been talking about, you know,
Starting point is 00:36:12 Department of the Interior has been speaking about fossil fuels and they've talked about deportation and Trump has been talking about tax relief, which we're going to talk about some Rhinos stuff here coming up. Additionally, can we talk about this Democrat rep? So I tweeted about this this morning. I think it was this morning. Yeah, it was this morning. I'm pulling my tweet.
Starting point is 00:36:37 I mentioned this this morning. I retweeted Chip Roy. who was on the show yesterday. And it was actually a response to something that he had said about the budget that they're having. Increase in Medicaid funding. House budget is instructing committees to increase Medicaid funding by 25% in increasing the debt to over $50 trillion. And I made the point, like we talked about yesterday, you know, if House Republicans are not going to cut spending, we're not going to get permanent tax cuts
Starting point is 00:37:13 and without tax cuts voters are going to feel the pinch harder and they're going to rebel at midterms and that's going to jeopardize the very razor-thin majority that we have in the house and then you're going to have
Starting point is 00:37:26 the rest of potuses the final part of his term plagued with what this fruit loop is doing so let's go to this fruit loop so this dude I don't even know who the hell this dude is and I'm I'm trying to figure out
Starting point is 00:37:42 I just I'm questioning how he's serving in Congress his name is Shri Thanadar of Michigan and he's announced that he's filed seven articles of impeachment against POTUS because he's mad
Starting point is 00:38:01 that he deported that Maryland dad you know and he made doge cuts and all this stuff what gets me is he made Doge cuts without congressional approval, you stupid, illiterate moron. It's an audit, and then they present those findings to Doge. Is English his second language? Because I feel like, and I don't care if it's mean to say, if you're going to make accusations like this based on such a high level of stupidity, I get to ask if English is your second language. And if it is, if, you know, this guy,
Starting point is 00:38:32 I feel like he just doesn't understand how this works. Doge is not making cuts. They're presenting their findings to Congress and Congress makes cuts. And so he literally filed an article of impeachment based on his lack of understanding of that process, which is why I'm asking. I mean, because he's from India. And I just, it's fine if you're from India, but I mean,
Starting point is 00:38:52 he just seems like he's fresh off the boat. Sorry, I'm just going to say it. Like, he doesn't know what the hell's happening here. Can I be honest, Kane, does that mean? Yep, you're honest. All right. And so this guy barely speaks English and he's
Starting point is 00:39:06 filing seven articles of impeachment. And some people, by the way, I've noticed that they're mostly conservative Hispanics that are saying this. Like one of my friends who said, yeah, we need to ban foreign-born people from serving in Congress. Now, this is someone whose dad's from Mexico, just saying. I just feel like this guy doesn't have an understanding of what Doge is doing or this process. That's why a lot of people are going, wait, what? Anyway, he filed these articles of impeachment. And, I mean, this is him right here.
Starting point is 00:39:43 Audio Somebody 23. This is what he was talking about. This is Congressman Shri Tanedar. Donald Trump has already done real damage to our democracy, but defying a unanimous 9-0 Supreme Court ruling that has to be the final straw. It's time we impeached Donald J. Trump. The court said the wrongfully deported Kilmer Garcia must be allowed to return and receive
Starting point is 00:40:13 due process. Trump ignored it. He ignored the Constitution. He ignored the very checks and balances that keep our democracy intact. He's 70. This isn't an isolated incident. It's part of a dangerous deliberate pattern. That's why. Okay, I got a stop, full stop. Dude, he's 70 years old. There's no way he's 70. When he came to the U.S., I was like a baby. He's 70 years old. And he lived in St. Louis in the 80s for a while, Kane. He was at Petrolite in St. Louis for a while, apparently.
Starting point is 00:40:54 I'm saying all of this because... He is 70. Yeah, he's 70 years old. He's a vampire. This is... No, he's not from India. He's a damn vampire. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:03 Is that his hair? That was my next question. Is that his real hair? I don't care about anything else right now except this question. Hold up. I don't care. We're going to look. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:41:13 Nothing about his, in his biography talks about that. I just need to know. You're going to bear it. Everybody bear with me because he's 70 years old. I don't believe him. Did he also get eyebrow implants along with their hair plugs? I'm curious. That is a.
Starting point is 00:41:33 Everyone is asking. Is it a wig? Some say it's a wig. I don't know if it's a wig or not. But it seems, maybe it is? I don't know. I've just got a million questions. Let's see.
Starting point is 00:41:50 So a couple, so there's a couple of threads and a couple of pieces that say it is. He isn't said publicly. But I'm sorry, you're actually, I think he's 71. You're 71 years old. you're doing something. You're using a serum on the eyebrows and you got plugs or that's a wig. That's something. My grandfather who had a thick head of hair wouldn't even, it wouldn't even like that. And his got like ashy black as he got older. My grandpa had black hair. So he's got ashy black as he got older. So I am just stunned by this. It is stunning. Now he first ran for governor of Michigan in 2018.
Starting point is 00:42:30 Now here's where we get going. Oh boy. So let's, I mean, it was fun to talk about his wig and the fact that he's a vampire but um is it a wig i'm just thinking it is okay i'll let the chat weigh in and the chat can determine whether or not they think it's a wig or not i say wig because there is no way no way i have friends from india and i and i know their parents and their hair is not even like that like that like consistently all over dark he didn't even have a gray highlight i don't believe you are a vampire or a liar, and that's a wig. I don't know. Anyway, so my whole point in bringing this up is he has some scandals, as it were. He's a business owner, and now there's allegations of animal abuse.
Starting point is 00:43:20 He had, I guess, he owned and operated a bankrupt animal testing lab. And in 2018, the Huffington Post, you know, that beacon of conservatism, the Huffington Post, reported that they, that there approximately 170 dogs and monkeys that had to be rescued in 2010 from one of his pharmaceutical testing labs. And they had to shutter the facility, Annie Klin preclinical services. They went bankrupt in 2010. He abandoned them in the facility. They shut the door and left the animals to die. They left the animals to die. They left the animals to die in cages alone without food and water. I'll say it again.
Starting point is 00:44:11 This guy who's talking about impeaching potas, this Shri Thanadar born in India from Michigan, he had approximately 170 dogs and monkeys in his pharmaceutical testing lab. And when he went bankrupt, they left the animals in the cages, shut the door and left. these animals there were some lab workers that were jumping the bankrupt labs fences to bring food and water to the animals there's video that i can't even watch because i will fly to michigan and personally kick his ass that they had uh the times harold said that some of these dogs had never been outside they were only subjected to and I'm I actually don't like animal testing
Starting point is 00:45:07 I think that tests on people on death row because everybody knows what the consequences are if you commit capital offenses okay well you know let's save testing on animals let's test on rapists and pedophiles I'm totally I think we should actually no don't use animals for testing test on on rapists and pedophiles but these animals they like some of them never had their paws on the grass They were terrified to be in the sun. They were terrified to be outside. They had a California-based group called In-Defensive Animals that went through, and they were saving these animals.
Starting point is 00:45:45 And there's a lot of video. There's a lot of video of it, of him, of these animals being rescued. It's horrific. Absolutely horrific. And this was Huffington Post, a liberal entity, wrote about this. And they used, they tested, they did horrible tests on these animals. And I just, I mean, it breaks your heart. I think he should be deported on that alone, personally.
Starting point is 00:46:12 See, I'm telling you, I know we got to get moving. But that's the guy who now wants to impeach POTUS.

Starting point is 00:47:20 And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick-5. According to the Financial Times, Cain, the Danes are boycotting to Coca-Cola. all the local brand is soaring 13 fold in March it's because you know the tariffs according to the Coca-Cola

They said that International Diabetes Federation is officially recognizing a disease that's not linked to obesity, but malnutrition as type 5 diabetes.

He solved the problem very quickly. and he did the right thing and it's a good guy. So, good. I mean, they pretty much, I guess that's like all set and done at this point, the whole Amazon thing. And we talked about that yesterday. It was for Amazon Hall, which we didn't even know existed.
Starting point is 00:51:16 And so they were denying that it was ever going to be Amazon-wide, all Amazon. And apparently, POTUS was mad. If you get my Wednesday, if you get my radio prep email, that's, I had that in there. like he apparently was mad he called bezos after learning about it and now amazon says the tariff costs for displays was never considered for the main site they said nothing has been implemented and they ruled out displaying it so apparently that's done welcome back to the program dana lash with you i got a couple of other things to get to uh we're going to talk about some cultural stuff but can we talk about red state rhino hunting we need to discuss what's happening in texas right now
Starting point is 00:51:57 All right. So did you guys hear about the meme bill? This is one of the goofiest things. This isn't the first time. So let me just set this up. This isn't the first time that I've seen or that they, that lawmakers have tried to, I guess, regulate memes. That's the word that I want. this is not the first time that they've tried to regulate memes. They've tried to do this, remember, federally before. Isn't that, Kane, when they had the, who's that annoying theater kid, that, the ministry of whatever? Oh, the ministry of truth. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they were going to have, like they were going to try to regulate memes or something like that.
Starting point is 00:52:48 And they kept saying, oh, it's for AI purposes. You know, we just, we're trying to protect you for AI. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard of my life. So no, that's not. So what happened is the Texas House, they passed a bill. It took 30 seconds with no debate. And it is a bill that actually inadvertently would criminalize political memes. Texas scorecard rights that courts have routinely struck down these laws that try to regulate political discourse, right?
Starting point is 00:53:20 Because First Amendment is pretty strong protections. It's House Bill 366. And it would make it a crime to distribute altered media, including political memes without a government-approved disclaimer. And people who violate this could face up to a year in jail. Anyone who tries to enforce this on me in Texas, we're going to have a Waco-style knockdown drag-out in South Lake. So I'm done with this stuff. Oh, I'm not joking. I'm not being hyperbolic.
Starting point is 00:53:48 Like, you want to push people who are good people to the point where they become criminals for criticism. criticizing bad lawmakers. If you want a Civil War, that's how you start Civil Wars. I'm not saying this lightly. I am so sick of these people. The drunk schmuck, who's the House Speaker, and by the way, Dave Phelan, this is his bill. We've invited him on this show, and he won't come on the show. Right, Kane?
Starting point is 00:54:14 We've invited him on the show. He won't come. Yeah, back when the Texas AG was under impeachment, and it was largely led by his drunken antics. then he wouldn't come on, wouldn't respond. Right. So they had the State Affairs Committee, they're taking up this bill, and it's by the former Speaker of the House, and they took it up, and it was alongside a couple of other pieces of legislation. It specifically targets political advertising that, quote, features image, audio recording, or video recording of an officeholder or candidate's appearance, speech, or conduct
Starting point is 00:54:49 that did not occur in reality. The broad language is what's dangerous. So it would allow the Texas Ethics Commission, they have the authority to determine the specific format, the font, the size of the font, and the color of the required disclaimer. Yeah. It is one of the stupidest bills and the fact that the Texas House has taken this up, the most powerful committee has taken this up. I mean, it's unconstitutional. So remember the drunk date stuff. So Dade Phelan when he was Speaker of the House. There was a lot of video of him out there slurring when he was trying to, you know, preside over the house. And everybody made fun of him. And they called him drunk, drunk, uh, drunk, uh, drunk, uh, drunk, uh, apparently it made him
Starting point is 00:55:34 mad. And he just, he's, you know, I've been really, I've not been really, I mean, I've, I've criticized him, which for some of these lawmakers, that's enough. If you criticize them, people like Dave Phelan, they sit here and act like, oh, it's so bad for Trump defenders to defend Trump, even if there's rightful criticism of him. But date fainer, is the same damn thing. You can't criticize him for anything or you are, you know, persona non grata. So even when I was polite, we invited him on the show. They wouldn't have anything to do with us. We're the biggest talk show in Texas. And we're also
Starting point is 00:56:06 literally in hundreds of markets across the nation. We are the number one broadcast in the nation in the afternoon. No one touches us. And we own this time slot. And he won't have anything to do with this because I've been critical. So I'm done being nice about it. If you're not going to come on, then okay, I'm not going to be nice and polite. You know, it's time to not be nice. If you're going to try to criminalize people's speech because you're drunk ass made a fool of yourself, then you deserve to be dragged. And this legislation, think about the implications that go far beyond political advertising. Imagine that you want to share a meme on
Starting point is 00:56:48 Facebook. A meme, an image where you're joking around. Oh boy, is Texas Ethics Commission going to come and knock on your door because you didn't have drunk dade's preferred government acknowledgement, the little disclaimer on your meme? I've read the bill. So for all of the wise asses out there who want to go, well, did you read the bill? I read the bill and I probably have better reading comprehension and I'm smarter and better looking than the people who would criticize me for disagreeing with them, dade surrogates on this bill. I've read it. It's garbage. It's anti-First Amendment garbage. And there are a number of Texas Republicans that voted for it. Maybe it's because they want some of drunk dades money. I don't know, you know, because that's what these lawmakers do is they get a lot of campaign cash for themselves and then they spread it around. I was looking at some of these. My rep voted against it, but I'll publish a list on, we're going to publish the list on Substat. of all the Republican lawmakers in Texas that decided to vote for this. If you vote, I'm pretty hardcore on First and Second Amendment.
Starting point is 00:57:59 If you vote against me, against my interest one time, one time on First and Second Amendment, you're dead to me. These are issues where I rarely allow. Oh, it's all, sure, I'll forgive. But that doesn't mean I welcome you back into my war room. Doesn't mean that you're back in my confidence. they betray you once on such a crucial issue, they will screw you over again and again. That is a basic issue that should not even be up for debate.
Starting point is 00:58:27 And if they can't even get that right, they're no good. They're trash. This is a major, major First Amendment concern. And of course, these are the same lawmakers that have been trying to vote away our Second Amendment rights as well. I mean, we have all kinds, I mean, they've got all kinds of house bills. They've been blocking pro-gun bills. they've they've been dragging their feet on banning red flag law they've been dragging their feet for instance self-defense protections house bill 170 they've been dragging their feet on a number
Starting point is 00:59:03 of like cole hefner his committee representative cole hefner he's in the fifth district they've been dragging these bills I'm done with it this is nonsense and this mean bill is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen in my life. It would imprison people for a year if a meme doesn't have a disclaimer. And Dave Phelan is doing it for revenge. Now,
Starting point is 00:59:28 people are trying to argue, well, this is really pertaining to advertising. Really? Then why doesn't it exclude any non-political advertising material in the verbatim language of the bill? Feel free to
Starting point is 00:59:43 try to gaslight that one away. it's done for a purpose and I've seen it they're not just it's not just broadcast political advertising they're talking about the intent to influence in election and the language specifically says if they are distributing broadcast political advertising it's not saying that it's limited to broadcast political advertising I feel like there are some of our brethren that struggle with reading comprehension and that's probably because their lips are too close to date failing backside so they really can't see the full bill don't you agree kane i think that's the truth what
Starting point is 01:00:22 they're talking about with this is i'm reading the bill right now intent to influence an election uh knowingly caused to be published distributed or broadcast so it's published distribution or broadcast talking about images audio recordings video recordings and it mentions an office holder or candidate's appearance speech or conduct that did not occur in reality you have to have a disclosure on all of it, not just political advertising. And if people dispute that, this is what the law, this is what the proposal states. Your beef isn't with me. It's with the drunk lawmakers that lack the writing ability to clearly articulate the difference in writing in legislation in Austin. You don't want a war with me over your stupidity and your reading, lack of reading
Starting point is 01:01:11 comprehension. So take it to the lawmakers that wrote the bill. this is stupid this is one of the dump this is their priority they're fighting all they're not giving us relief on our property taxes but they're going to do this seriously you rat bastards this is what they're focusing on all because some lawmaker was butt hurt that people made fun of him because he was slur in his speech when he was at the microphone at the dais and he was pushing a very unpopular bill at the same time. This is just, it's, it's insulting, it's unconstitutional, and it's un-American. Now they're trying to say, oh, no, we're protecting people from AI.
Starting point is 01:02:01 And again, I'm reading it. To influence an election knowingly caused to be published, distributed, or broadcast, political advertising that includes an image, audio recording, video recording of an office holder or candidate's appearance, speech, or conduct that did not occur in reality, including image, audio recording, video recording that has been altered using generative artificial intelligence technology unless the political advertising includes a disclosure from the person or another person on whose behalf the political advertising is published, distributed broadcasts indicating that they blah, blah, blah. Now people are, oh, again, all but it's political advertising. You can share
Starting point is 01:02:32 political advertising on your own personal pages and there are no exemptions and there is no absolutely no opt-out. There's no exemptions. If you're sharing the image, you fall under the scope of this proposal. It's not limited. And if you take issue with that, then you probably struggle with the lack of alcohol-induced reading, absence of reading comprehension that the former speaker does. I mean, I can, you know, show these folks to the door, but you can't make them walk through it, right? I mean, this is, this is insane. And I, you know, I, I don't know, they're trying to regulate political expression in Texas, but they have no limitations on donations and spending. Interesting. I can't, I mean, it's, it's insane that people voted for this
Starting point is 01:03:27 at all. And it's all because the former speaker was embarrassed that he got made fun of. That's what this is all about. So I'm going to publish this up on, I'll have it up on substack. And then all of the yeses that are on this, all of these Republicans, there's all the good guys voted no. All the good guys voted no. Ladderback voted no. You had, let's see, Schatzline voted no. You know, all of my, Briscoe Cain voted no. I mean, all the good guys voted no in Texas legislature. all the bad ones, and there's a lot of them. They all voted yes, including Giovanni Capiglione, who represents me. He's a rhino. He's rude. He was really rude to me one time. Giovanni Capiglioni was incredibly rude to me and my husband one day, and I'm not over it.
Starting point is 01:04:19 I'm like, you're a lawmaker. You need to have a little bit better social graces than what you're demonstrating. And I even, one time when he was pushing the Texas gold reserves, they were were really, they were demanding to come on the show. Oh my gosh. Can you remember this? Capricolanda? They were sending us all kinds of requests. I save every email. So if they want to dispute this, I will bury you in receipt. So don't. But they wanted to come on the show. Oh, let us on the show. Let us on the show. We'd love to talk about this. Oh, can you promote what Giovanni's doing? Can you promote what he's doing? Can you promote? Oh, I had him on one time. Then he was just real rude afterwards. Really rude. He's a rude guy. He, of course, he voted yes on this.
Starting point is 01:05:01 so I'm going to publish this up at substack chapter and verse but this this was a middle finger to voters they don't care about your property relief your property tax relief they don't care they don't care about anything you'll have a Texas majority in the legislature but they're going to put Democrats on committees and they're going to try to hamstring you on First Amendment nonsense it's assinine but you know what you know the the saying that we were joking about a couple of years ago try that in a small town you try enforcing this with people like me and you see where it gets you. We got a lot more on the way
Starting point is 01:05:33 because this isn't done yet. I have more rhino stuff too. Again, we can do this every single day. That's how bad it is. That's how prevalent it is in some of these red states. I got more stuff on Florida. At least Florida, their speaker in Florida, finally, finally surrendered to DeSantis on property tax relief. Finally, after he was dragged through, after he was humbled and humiliated.

Man, I love it. That's good. It's very good.
Starting point is 01:10:04 Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. Oh, my gosh. So we got a lot. Is it just me? He's more stoic now with the media and it's just, it's coming off better. I think he's still the same, but he's more in there. Remember, wasn't it the Axios interview that he did that seemed to take him off the rails
Starting point is 01:10:24 towards the end of his first term and it was because he got all rattled and he was all, you know, responding to these gotcha type questions from Axios and I think he's learned a lot from that. I think now that when he's handling the media, he's way more stoic than he used to be and
Starting point is 01:10:40 it comes off, I think, better for everyone watching. For me at least it does. Yeah, I mean, I just think that he's, I like the way that he handled this guy. Who looked at him like with a sense of wonderment and like he didn't know quite what was happening the Terry Moran Terry
Starting point is 01:10:56 I'm never going to get over it what are you doing Terry oh my gosh welcome back Dana Lash with you with you at the top of this the third hour actually I got a couple of things including one piece that I had over at substack as well I wanted to touch on I'm sure you guys I sent this out did I send this out yeah yesterday the DNC vice twerp that a hog kid he might lose his seat as the vice twerp of the DNC. So apparently per reports hit the credentials
Starting point is 01:11:32 committee is meeting virtually in May to consider the challenge from Kalin Free. She is a Native American attorney and party activist who lost a vice chair spot to Hogg at the party's February first meeting. In her complaint, she argued that she lost a quote fatally flawed election that violated the DNC charter and discriminated against three women of color candidates and asks for two new vice chair elections. Oh, this is delicious. So they're going to identify each other, identity politic each other to death. Now, I actually am not surprised at this because I think he is a horrible vice twerp of the DNC. When you're a committee, and it's the same for the Republican National Committee, when you are the vice chair, you have to operate within the
Starting point is 01:12:18 construct of the committee, right? And the committee exists to get other party types elected, right? He has spent all of his time running down party leadership, giving the middle finger to party superiors, refusing counsel. And he has repeatedly demanded that the DNC involve itself in primary fights, which is a major no-no. Politico had this. He wanted to spend committee money to take down Democrats he didn't like. And I mean, that's crazy. They wanted to spend $20 million to go after incumbent Democrats in safe districts. And he goes, I want us to win the majority. That's what he would say. That's not how you absolute moron. You flip, you're not going to, going after safe incumbents, That's not how you expand your seats.
Starting point is 01:13:18 You go to purple districts and you flip them that way. But that's not what he wanted. I think he is one of the dumbest people alive. I really do. It's embarrassing. And so clearly, you know, you had the other powers that be in the DNC go, yeah, that's not what we do. We get Democrats elected. We don't persecute Democrats.
Starting point is 01:13:38 That's a big no-no. Everybody knows that. The committees exist to promote party leaders for elections. They don't persecute party members during petty primaries. fights. They sure as hell don't imperil safe Democrat seats like he was demanding. Of course, you know, he once accused yours truly of literally, quote, owning Congress and, quote, supporting child murderers. So he's not the brightest crayon in the box. He really wanted to use this. He just wanted to use the DNC as a vehicle for self-promotion, just like he did with the AstroTurf
Starting point is 01:14:09 group March for Our Lives. I think he needs to go back to selling pillows. You know, to this point, I wanted to make another point on this. Like I was having a conversation with a friend of mine who's in Congress. And the topic came up of Christy Noem. And, you know, I'm not, I'm ambivalent. I just, I don't dislike her, but I'm not a fan. Does that make sense? I'm just like middle of the road.
Starting point is 01:14:35 You know, I don't care if you dress up as long as you're doing your job. If you do your job and you're deporting baddies, then I don't, I don't care if you go to Spirit Halloween every damn day and get a new outfit for everything i don't care i don't care if you have if you shave aslan and then put his headdress on as your latest extensions i don't care what you do i literally don't care i don't care how many Gucci bags you have i don't care as long as you're doing your job you are free to just do whatever you want in my opinion that's me just serve the taxpayer and i'm cool one thing i don't like though are all these ads and i was very critical of these ads have you seen them on fox they're everywhere that costs and fox isn't cheap it's like six figures a month for
Starting point is 01:15:15 run these to have an ad campaign on Fox. And I can't remember the bare minimum that you have to sign up for. I think there's like a minimum. Those are our tax dollars. And I just, and it's just her face talking the whole time with footage behind her. She's running dangerously close to having it look like a promotional vehicle for her instead of informing the taxpayer about what DHS is doing. And I would advise them to reconsider all of that. The video that Trump played at the Michigan rally last night was really making me think about this. I don't know if you guys, we're not, we don't to play it because there's music behind it, and I'm sure it's licensed. But he had a video when he was talking about deportation. And it was showing all the Trendaragua guys that were
Starting point is 01:15:54 taken back to CENTCO, right? That's the name of the jail that were taken back to the big jail in, and taken to the El Salvador in jail, Tranda Araagua, MS-13, all these dudes, going back to this big, bad jail in El Salvador. And they, you know, they had the music, and it was great aggressive music and they get these guys off the plane and they're in cuffs and they bend their heads down they don't even get the dignity
Starting point is 01:16:19 of walking with their heads up they bend them over and they just pert march them right into the vehicles and man they get them out of there and take them to scent code it's really amazing to watch and he had all this
Starting point is 01:16:30 like them bust in these rings and pulling people over and arresting all these all illegal aliens that are vicious criminals and he played that and I'm like that's what you need to show
Starting point is 01:16:42 I don't need to see Christine Homes face magnified times 50 barely being able to see the footage behind her because again it seems like a promotional vehicle for herself just show the stuff I mean if you're going to cut ads then do that but I don't even think that you need to spend
Starting point is 01:16:58 that kind of six figure taxpayer money on an ad campaign like that because they're running PSA's y'all that's not how that is working with them and I don't think you need to spend taxpayer money to do that when you have the proliferation of, when you have the ability to
Starting point is 01:17:15 viralize it for the lack of a better way to put it throughout social media. Do you know what I mean? All Trump has to do is tweet it and he can just bypass all of these old. You don't even need that. Why are we not saving taxpayer dollars? That
Starting point is 01:17:33 doesn't make any sense. So I just, you know, they need, I caution them on that on that ground. A couple of other things. culture. We have another fight with the J.K. Rallying trans stuff. So
Starting point is 01:17:49 they're doing a Harry Potter reboot because Hollywood's out of ideas. And they have a new Harry Potter series that they are doing. And we've talked a little bit about it before. And they were casting, it's the HBO series. And
Starting point is 01:18:06 they have a new batch of actors playing all of the original roles. and they think like john lithgow is albus dumbledore and they have mark rylance who's apparently going to be uh and he's really good he's in um uh wolf hall he's really good he's apparently going to be uh cast in it and i think uh you've got a couple of british actresses i think rachel vice is taking over as well she's going to be i think she's going in i think she's taking a role in it too. And they, Nick Frost is Hagrid. That's a good cast. And everybody was critical of the guy, Papa Isidu, that they cast as Severus Snape. And it's not about race. It's
Starting point is 01:18:50 because Severus Snape is, if you're not familiar with the story, Severus Snape, he was a baddie in the beginning. And he was running around with Voldemort and the death eaters. And the death eaters are basically the Ku Klux Klan, the Nazis and all, it's a, it's a archetype of every bad guy ever, right? It's, and they all look a certain way for a reason. So it's, you know, an archetype of every bad guy, and it all comes down to the worst identity politics, right? Identity politics is putting race and all of that above everything else. The death eaters were considered pure, and everyone else who wasn't pure were called mudbloods. And it was very important that Sever Snape looked the way he was because that was part of his identity. It's like having Dave Chappelle play a
Starting point is 01:19:34 clan member, right? Like in the, in his Chappelle show. I mean, that's a joke. So they have an African actor who is playing Severus Snape and it completely takes that whole huge part of Severus Snape's moral compromise out. And it ruins the character because he is pale and he's this. That's like very emphasized in the story, not as a positive. he uses it as a cudgel against everyone else who is less than so you are rewriting her story by blackwashing that character it's like having moulon played by paris hilton no offense but you see what i'm saying you you're retconning something about a character that makes them who they are and that is actually offensive to the original story
Starting point is 01:20:32 and it it dumbs down why he's so scary why he's so shifty why he's so untrustworthy why he's so dangerous and that was one of the she's reacted to that and he's just decided I guess he's going to go into this full jack wagon
Starting point is 01:20:49 because he has signed this letter on trans rights it was an open letter supporting trans rights against J.K. Rowling. And he's already really feeling his oats, right? Like he's, you know, he signs this letter and he, like, they went, went directly against. I'm not saying you don't have your own viewpoints, but to immediately spit in the face of the person who created your living is an entitlement that only certain people, it's an
Starting point is 01:21:24 indulgence, an entitlement that's an indulgence for only certain people. And I think some people, when they do stuff like this, they wrap themselves in identity politics as a way to deflect accountability for their stupid decisions and rudeness and ridiculousness. I'm not, I'm not going to watch this series. It already sounds like trash. And it's sad because some of the cast is good. But that's one of the cast members that his story and his opinion.
Starting point is 01:21:54 appearance play very much it's like it's like redoing the story of Hitler and having like a and kind of and and having every somebody that that personified everything that he was against play him you undercut the dangerousness of the bad guy and you dole down the redemptive arc that he has later I just think it's stupid that they're doing this stuff I'm going to tell you something it is so easy to steal somebody's title. It's crazy easy, especially now with AI and in this cyber world, I mean, it is a top crime. And we have scammers that they're stealing people's home titles because your equity is the target.

Starting point is 01:22:47 transferred out of your name. And one forged signature is all it takes. You're not even going to know that it happened. And then the real damage starts because they use your equity to take out all these loans. They can even sell your property outright. And then you have to deal with the aftermath. Most people don't find out until they start getting foreclosure notices or, you know, collection notices, all of this. I mean, it's unreal.

Hey, give us your two cents on this story. It's All Systems Go for a controversial new program in Michigan aimed at bringing down the Canada goose population. As the state prepares to round up and gas the geese to death, animal rights groups are calling foul over this and demanding answers. gassing geese what the heck so they think the best way to get their
Starting point is 01:28:52 geese population under control isn't to have hunters handle it you know maybe give some I don't know like hunters out and get some licenses going you know increase the license
Starting point is 01:29:08 I don't know no they're going to gas them that's so does the gas only work for just the geese is it just the geese gas because there's now bear with me in nature there are other animals out there with the geese in nature that's true so is this a particular type of geese gas that only gas is geese no i think they were going to round them up and then gas them in a like a chamber I mean they could hunt them because geese are tasty
Starting point is 01:29:46 also they're migratory do Canada geese just hang around is that what they're having problems with? They're leaving because they probably want to get out of there because Mark Carney but they can't just wait till they fly away like south
Starting point is 01:30:01 I don't know man they're just passing through their Canadian is too close yeah I don't know man are they not good eating they said that there's a handful of lake now it's like what lake uh lake homeowners lake front homeowners that are upset with the pop i guess the population and they want them exterminated for convenience what no that's that's the reason uh yeah so people bought property lake front and are upset at animals using that lake. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:43 Yeah. So it is, I was, they're going to, and then they're just going to take the dead geese to a landfill. That's Fox 2, Detroit that reported that. So this was the idea they landed on and said, this is the one. They said that, no, it's, it's an approved euthanasia method. They said they're making a, mess on the sidewalks and they get in the way of golf swings.
Starting point is 01:31:09 No. I am literally being so honest right now. I am reading the story verbatim. It's the hot news state, Michigan where we gas geese that get involved in your golf swing.
Starting point is 01:31:26 I personally am not a fan of the geese except for eating because they're jerks. Yeah, geese can be jerks. I, so kind of an accompanying story to this for whatever reason geese hate me you know I have a problem with certain animals right
Starting point is 01:31:43 goats chimpanzees I kicked a skunk once because I swear to you it hissed at me I was in my defense I was three do not do that and I thought it was a cat that was going to attack me
Starting point is 01:31:56 I do kind of sort of hazily remember it I was again like three or four anyway but one time a sweet listener sent me a pair of pink sparkly shoelaces because they heard my heart-wrenching story about how one day at the St. Louis Zoo, a goat ate the pink shoelaces off of my tennis shoes and I was heartbroken. Like literally ate them out, slurped them up like a noodle. It's crazy.
Starting point is 01:32:20 I know. We didn't get tape. Just like tape my shoe on my foot. It was so weird. I felt like a hobo. I was walking around the zoo for the rest of the day like a hobo with a hobo foot. I don't even, it's crazy. And then I did tell you this.
Starting point is 01:32:34 story of when I got to do most of you heard this the slap fight with the chimp right my neighbor that uh yes they were affiliated with that festus family that did that documentary and i it was a juvenile chimp in a diaper and it tried to like throw stuff at me from its diaper and i just and it pinched me and i slapped it without knowing you know i was young that it could pull my face off anyway you know we've got an issue where saminos geese for whatever reason hate me if i am at like a a lake or, you know, pond or whatever. And there's geese nearby. I just got to leave because I don't even do anything.
Starting point is 01:33:11 I'm just there existing. And the geese are like, mah, and they don't like it. And they just come at me. They run at me. Every time, every single, without fail. Without fail. They will run at me and ignore the smaller children that are nearby. I don't know what it is.
Starting point is 01:33:29 Dogs love me. Geese hate me because they're the cats of the air. Anyway, I don't know, man. It's just what they do. But I don't want to gas them. I do not want to gas them because that is jerk, a jerk move. And also, I would rather eat them. Are they good eating?
Starting point is 01:33:53 I'm not sure. I've had goose before. Canadian goose? I mean, a goose is a goose, isn't it? Is it? I think there's different geese out there. I was going to make a joke. Because when I think goose, it's like the big old fluffy white one.
Starting point is 01:34:08 They're not as big as swans, but they're geese. Because it got meat? You can eat it. Canadian geese are not that. So I don't know if they're good eating or not. I'll eat it. Put a song. I mean squirrel though, so.
Starting point is 01:34:25 The one thing I haven't eaten won't is raccoon because it looks greasy as all that out. My grandpa used to go raccoon hunting all the time. People have. don't eat any little greasy marsupial bandit-looking things. I don't like those. I am, I mean, I'll eat most things, but I'm very selective still at the same time. If it's greasy
Starting point is 01:34:43 and it's like an animal that would probably rob me, I'm not going to eat it. So anyway, they said that they've been talking to these waterfowl experts. They said they want to, I mean, they've relocated geese before, but they said it's not sustainable to do that.
Starting point is 01:35:01 So they're going to gas them. They're migratory. What are you relocating? They're migratory. Yeah. By the way, this is what an expert, a water, I'm reading this. This is from Fox 2, Detroit, a waterfall expert with the Michigan Duck and Rescue Sanctuary. This is pretty hardcore.
Starting point is 01:35:23 I mean, it's thundering out there because the God doesn't like this story. So this is what they said. They go, yeah, it's kind of a disgusting way of doing it. when they gas them they're going to tell people that they're just going to fall asleep nothing is going to fall asleep it's going to fight for 20, 30,
Starting point is 01:35:39 40 minutes until it dies that's the direct quote I'm sending you this I'm dropping the story and it's like this is the actual direct quote yeah yeah yeah go down there and check that so yeah they don't they're not going to fall asleep they're going to die
Starting point is 01:35:53 horribly like after you know a while it's going to happen because they're being geese yeah they're just there that's so sad like i i would rather it be humanely harvested from nature via a hunter for me to eat or someone to eat are there no hungry people in michigan i mean it's like a wolf came up with this idea yeah the wolves are fine with them being gassed i i just and they said that
Starting point is 01:36:23 you know these are it has to be a problematic site so now the state of michigan's like oh hold up because people are like you're going to do what so they're saying now we're Wait a minute. It's the last resort, everybody. And they're going to be problematic sites. So, see, it doesn't totally sound like they're just going to round them up and take them somewhere. It does not. It sounds like they're going to get a call-of-duty godgun and just blasts some geese gas out in the atmosphere and just, you know, hope it doesn't hit anything else. What were the other resorts?
Starting point is 01:36:49 If this is the last resort, what were the other resorts? What are the other resorts? Well, shoe didn't work. We tried poison for a couple months. That didn't do anything. I mean, good Evans. So I've got a lot of questions about this. Like, why can't they, again, just, you know.
Starting point is 01:37:15 Are they good eaten? I mean, it's a little gamey, but, you know. That's the question. If they're good eaten, then we need to think about something like that. But they said they're nuisance geese and everybody's been pushing back on it. and I think it just sounds dumb. So is that the new threshold for gassing things? They're nuisances?
Starting point is 01:37:36 I mean, if we're going to roll with that, can we extend it to peoples? No, no. No, no one's evolving to that. Like for people that have bad taste or wear, you know, high-wasted jeans. Or think that, you know, yes, platform shoes don't make your feet look like Clydesdales women.
Starting point is 01:37:57 Look what gassing geese has already got you thinking about. It's already, you know. No, this is bad. Wrong. They said that some people see them as a lakeside pest. But, yeah, it's basically the people who live by the lake. The fancy people who live by the lake that don't like the geese interfering with their golf swing. What's their next thing?
Starting point is 01:38:15 Killing all the fish? Like, what are they, what's, what do they have against nature that nature existing and nature is enough to gas them? I don't know, but I just feel like there's other things that they could do, maybe. I feel like they have not gotten to the last resort. They ought to feel lucky that the geese want to live there. I'm just, you know, like instead of being like, oh, these are nuisance animals. Like, how nice is it that they want to be here with us? That's so sweet.
Starting point is 01:38:43 But they're not. They're being jerks about it. So, yeah, gas and geese. This is about as smart as Adam Schiff, audio somebody 30. He's filing legislation to ban a fictional firearm. Listen. Today I will be introducing the assault weapons ban of 2025, a bill that would ban the sale, manufacture, import, and transfer of military-style assault weapons. Since 2006, there have
Starting point is 01:39:12 been 486 mass shootings involving assault weapons. Hundreds and hundreds of Americans have been killed in these mass shootings. This bill is a way to attack that massive threat to our safety. safety and security. Hmm. Hmm. For what? Like what, quote unquote, assault weapons? What are they talking about?
Starting point is 01:39:37 Or they're used in the, again, here we go. They're used in the fewest amount of crimes. It's always illegally obtained handguns from the black market. And if you don't believe me, you don't have to take my word for it. You can go back and look at multiple different surveys that were actually all done under the Obama administration. administration with the very anti-gun Eric Holder as attorney general. And they did, they surveyed thousands of felons, incarcerated felons. And what they discovered is that that's how these people
Starting point is 01:40:10 are obtaining their firearms is through the black market. They're not walking into FFLs and going, yes, they would like to purchase a gun. My name is Bangor, Mr. Gangbanger. That's not how this works. This is, he's doing this because they have nothing else. Democrats always go back to this well when they have nothing else. Oh, yes, Democrats. What are you going to do about inflation? I don't know. Best I can do is an assault weapons ban. Like, what? That's all they have. They never have anything else. It's always that. Gosh, how are you going to stop the deluge at the border? I don't know. Best I can do. It's like pawn stars. Assault weapons ban. That's all they got. Every time. That's all they have. So I don't know. I'm, it just amazes me. And I got one other headline real quick.
Starting point is 01:40:53 I just saw this at the New York Post. So Mel Gibson. and an NFL Hall of Famer had their firearm rights restored along with nine others. After petitioning for pardons, Gibson was prevented after a domestic violence conviction. He appealed to Trump. Did I ever tell you my Mel Gibson story? We were at this fundraiser, and a very good friend of mine had organized it, and it was for veterans, and we were at the table, and all of a sudden, I was sitting next to Bob Goya, and the next thing I knew, Mel Gibson was sitting at my table, and it was a little surreal.
Starting point is 01:41:26 And I kept thinking, maybe it's an impersonator. This is, you know, he was in town with Jim Caviesel, who was also at our table. And because they were, they're creating this film production company in Texas. And I didn't want to, I don't like to bother people with photos and all that. And because there's enough people that do that with these folks. But I did go over to him and tell him that I, you know, appreciated his work. And I really loved Apocalyptic and, you know, the other stuff that he's done. And I introduced myself.
Starting point is 01:41:53 And he goes, well, I know who you are. And I had no, I'm really awkward. really awkward when it's one-on-one. I mean, you may think I'm a smooth talker when I'm in front of a lot of people, but you get me in front of like one or two people. And I'm like, Ricky Bobby. I don't. What do I do with my hands? And I just looked at him and I go, no, you don't. And he looked at me, like, it stunned him. And he goes, what are you talking about? Yes, I do. And I go, I don't think so. And he goes, are you seriously going to argue with me about this? That was my conversation with Mel Gibson. It was a winner. I invite me to your

Starting point is 01:43:48 Are you asking me to put myself on a cross? So you won't. I actually have had this experience many times. You didn't read the pamphlet because the pamphlet is chapter and verse. The main connection is that the MSA is part of the Muslim Brotherhood network. I meant if I say something, I'm sure that I will be arrested for reasons of homeland security. If you condemn Hamas, homeland security will arrest you. If I support Hamas, because your question forces me to condemn Hamas.
Starting point is 01:44:13 If I support Hamas, I look really bad. If you don't condemn Hamas, obviously you support it. I'm a Jew. The head of Hisbalah has said that he hopes that we will gather in Israel so he doesn't have to hunt us down globally for it or against it for it that is one this was over 10 years before all of the stuff that you saw on college campuses around the country that's david horowitz at u.s san diego with a Muslim student after he was giving a speech he had a lengthy battle with cancer which he fought valiantly but lost he's passed away at the

And then he had his awakening. And hopefully it inspired, as he hoped, other Jewish students on college campuses that leaned towards Marxism to leave that ideology behind and embrace freedom and open things. thinking.
