Starting point is 00:00:00 But we can get out there. Reach out. Make the case. And for one thing, don't ever shy away from our progressive values. One person's socialism is another person's neighborliness. Well, there's your new vice presidential candidate. But we can get out there. Reach out.
Starting point is 00:00:14 Make the case. No, no, no. But do it again. Don't ever shy away from our progressive values. Just keep playing it. One person's socialism is another person's neighborliness. Just keep going. I'm already in a mood because I had a full cup of coffee that I literally just dropped
Starting point is 00:00:29 everywhere as I was like coming to sit down. So I hate everything right now. Although I don't hate this pick because it's appropriately ridiculous. It is the new VP pick. I've got a piece that I started that I wasn't able to finish yet because I have a radio program to do and I can't just like, you know, grow a head out of my backside with arms and just, you know, do that while I'm on air. I told you I hate everything. I dropped my cup of coffee. It's all over everything. Oh my God in heaven. help me. Oh my gosh. I could scream. It was like the dark roast, the black rubber coffee dark roast. I hate everything. Oh my gosh. If, oh, if I could just like make my fingers turn into rockets right now, I'd just fire them and everything. All right. So the Veep Steaks. You,
Starting point is 00:01:13 you guys don't care, but I do. The Veep Stakes. It's a mostly peaceful ticket. It is, though. It's a mostly peaceful ticket. And I, um, man, it's Harris. walls, which is a weird thing to say. Harris walls. Harris walls, right? Say it, Kane. It's weird. Yeah, Harris Wolves. Harris Wolves.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Yeah. That sounds weird. It rhymes with some stuff. A lot of things. But we're only a few minutes into the program and you guys aren't ready yet. So this is, yeah, as Kane noted, you've got the vice president who, as the governor of Minnesota allowed people to burn down everything. And then you have, sorry, the vice presidential pick who's the governor. And then the current vice president who would bail everybody out. So I think it's the stupidest choice you could have made if you were a Democrat. I think it's also interesting
Starting point is 00:02:16 that both Republicans and Democrats chose a candidate that was ideologically, not strategically based. And I also think Tim Walls looks like boss hog. And I'm not apologizing for the comparison. And I've said it since last night and I doubled down and I made some kind of training man mad. It's the dude. Yeah. If you say that, you know what? Do you know if you, if you say that, that phrase in a mirror three times with the lights off, Dennis Rodman appears behind you. Does you know that?
Starting point is 00:02:47 It's totally true. Don't try it. So we're going to get into everything that you need to know about Tim Wals of Wals's hair's walls. Gosh, you can't say it. It sounds like a bad beer. garden, doesn't it? Harris Wolls sounds like a horrible beer garden of flat beer and ugly wenches. That's it. Flat beer and ugly winches. It's a horrible ticket. It's not going to stop. I'm still
Starting point is 00:03:14 mad about my coffee. So Tim Walls, he is a progressive governor from a state that gives you a whole whopping nine, ten electoral votes. Woo-hoo-hoo. Oh. good for you. Look at that. And now, I thought, and I think she was thinking about it, but I also think that the Democrat machine, which is the name rhymes with Schmo Obama. I think that the Democrat machine wanted her to pick Tim Walls because I, and then I kind of, I'm assuming that, I'm just assuming that Josh Shapiro, who is the governor of Pennsylvania, wanted it. Maybe he didn't want it, but he sounded like somebody who wanted it. He was moderating his own religious viewpoints, order to appease dear Borna Stan, you know. So I kind of feel like he wanted it. However,
Starting point is 00:04:05 I also think that, you know, nobody wants to really jump on that landmine, which is this. Because she, she, the press was just saying she was garbage just a few weeks ago. Now they have to fluff her up and make her this straw man character. And she picks this, you know, boss hog looking dude coming out of Minnesota. And I'm going to get into his military record. We're going to get into everything. The military record, the phone line that he had to snitch on people during lockdown. Oh my gosh. All of that. He opposes fracking. Everything. The George Floyd riots, all of it. That's who Tim Walts is. So he's picked. Josh Shapiro
Starting point is 00:04:43 was snubbed. I don't know why. It's an idiotic choice. I'm glad they made it. You know, it just makes it easier for Republicans. And God knows that they need the help because, you know, the first moment they can, they're going to stick all the feet in their mouths. But to pick somebody like this from pretty reliably, everyone's like, oh, well, Minnesota is a battle. No, it's not. Minnesota was for Hillary Clinton in 2016. It was for Joe Biden in 2020. Pennsylvania, Biden was only plus one and a half over Trump in Pennsylvania. I mean, he, like, barely scraped by in Pennsylvania. That's why it was such a huge store. And it's one of the reasons why Shapiro moderated himself so much, at least optically, during elections. Because he's a pretty far left guy, too. And keep in mind, too, that there's no such thing as like a moderate Democrat anymore. And the reason that we know that is because they, they, they, they, politically and rhetorically murk all of their moderate Democrats. They don't have a moderate Democrat anymore.
Starting point is 00:05:32 But somebody like Josh Shapiro would have been a pick that would have put Pennsylvania a little bit more into play for Democrats, which signals to me that they're okay with losing Pennsylvania if it means they can pick up Georgia. And as of late, Harris and Trump have been, when you consider the margin of error,
Starting point is 00:05:54 legit tied in Georgia. And they're legit tied in number of states as well. I think Pennsylvania is something that Trump can take. And I think that's what Democrats are trying to figure in to their electoral map count. So they're, they're going ideological. They thought, well, you know, we can probably give up Pennsylvania if we take Georgia because they're in a better position in Georgia than they are in Pennsylvania. And then they can, with this pick, play to their base. Because Tim Walz, you know, Andy Bashir's to the left, I mean, they're all basically watered down forms of, you know, Karl Marx's backwash. But they're, they're, Tim Walts is
Starting point is 00:06:27 definitely more progressive. Some people have said he's sort of like the Ron DeSantis in reverse, but I don't even think he's like a Ron DeSantis in reverse. And my immediate reaction is to think that he's just like this chicken fried cream puff coming up from Minnesota. But you have to realize he's a lot more malicious than it looks, considering that the messaging about your weird came from Tim Walts. Although if that's the best that he's got, then I'm okay with it. Because I will totally, I think the people who think that anyone on the right is weirder than anyone on the left is not someone who's vote you're going to get in the first place, so I don't care. You know what I mean? So I just think it's a stupid move. I think the ticket is, I think it's goofy. You have two basic
Starting point is 00:07:05 Marxists on the ticket. And Tim Walts is exactly what a Californian Marxist thinks that a populist prairie Marxist looks like. That's exactly, that's what they think. And they think, oh, wow, he looks, you know, looks the party, sounds the party's got a little bit of a populist flair. So there you go. That's who it is. So that's, it's just, I think it's just one of the stupidest moves that they could have made. I, and I will say that I thought with Shapiro, if they had picked a Josh Shapiro, they could have been a lot more competitive. But the problem is, is Josh Shapiro is actually very well spoken. Regardless of how much you just like his policies and think that he's, you know, a schmuck, he's actually very well spoken. You cannot have the VP look better than the P on the ticket.
Starting point is 00:07:50 You know what I mean? He makes Kamala Harris look even more ridiculous. I mean, he, it, I mean, she, I mean, looks ridiculous already, but he makes her look even more so. He would have actually been a more formidable debater, I think, although I think J.D. Vance would have bested him still. I think he would have been a more formidable debater than this, you know, jiggly-poof coming out of Minnesota. Grandpa jiggly-poof. He's going to try to run that whole grandpa line and I'm so tired of dudes like, oh, you can't attack my record. I'm more grandpa. Shut up. So that's, and I can tell that the left doesn't know what to make of it because they've been apoplectic all morning. I have been like dealing, I was playing ex's janitor a little bit ago because they're, you say one thing and they mouth breathe all over you hysterically, shrieking.
Starting point is 00:08:37 They're losing their minds. And I had a dude that cosplays as a woman who tried to, who tried to like step two and I ate his soul and then I went on with my life. But I, they're losing their minds over this. So I feel like they're not entirely confident. But this is just playing to her base. And this is why this is also so stupid that she's playing to her base with this pick. Their base, she's anticipating that it's going to be a bunch of zoomers and millennials. All the people that have been writing at college campuses, all of the people that have had a problem with Jewish people,
Starting point is 00:09:07 which is ultimately, that's the singular reason. I think why they didn't pick Josh Shapiro. They didn't pick Josh Shapiro because he's Jewish. And they also didn't pick him because he just speaks better and is smarter than Kamala Harris. And they don't want to make Dearborn to stand mad and they don't want to look, they don't want to make Harris look, bummer than she is. So then she, you know, then she seems and is. So, you know, those are the two biggest reasons I think that they didn't pick Shapiro. Well, the Jewish reason is definitely one of it. I mean, that's not even up for dispute. This party has a raging anti-Semitic problem and they're not going
Starting point is 00:09:37 to address it. I mean, when you're sitting here not only calling for ceasefire, but ignoring the, the plight of students who are being systematically targeted at college campuses all across the country, that's a major issue. And when you refuse to see or to say or do anything about it, that's also an issue. So they're not going to, they're not going to, they're not going to pick him. So they got this guy. Tim Walts. Now, Tim Walts, like I said, we're going to go through his background because he opposes fracking. He took three days to call out the National Guard during the Floyd riots. Three whole days to call out the National Guard with the riots with Floyd. And so I have this. This is, I mean, I think we have some of this. Where's this? This is
Starting point is 00:10:22 audio somebody 5,000 and 112020. There's a lot of it. Hold up. Because I got the school stuff. We got a whole bunch of, we got his military stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah, check this out. This is what I'm talking about. A society that does not put equity and inclusion at the center of it is certainly going
Starting point is 00:10:40 to eventually come to the places where we're at. This is a moment of inflection. It's a moment of real change. It's a moment that those folks who are out there demanding this are not going to take a commission or a report, they're going to want fundamental change. And that is what I think... So he finally comes out three days after. Now, our friend Julio Rosas, who is there on the ground during all of the George Floyd riots and all of that, I mean, he was out there and he was saying it's crazy that they did not have, that they don't have, they haven't called the National Guard
Starting point is 00:11:13 out, that they haven't done anything. He was saying it's nuts that, you know, this is, that this has happened, that it's taken this long because it's a lot of property to be burned. a lot of people to be assaulted. There have been fatalities. And they were really putting that at the feet of waltz. And not just, you know, the reporters that were there, but a lot of the business owners that had their entire livelihoods destroyed by the unfettered rioting. Now, in addition to this stuff, we're going to get into, let me tell you, the criticism that
Starting point is 00:11:42 he received from his fellow service members because he's accused of abandoning his duty and abandoning his fellow soldiers. wait until you hear about this. He's got a DUI. He set up a snitch hotline for people during COVID. So you could call and snitch on people if you saw them without face masks. He instituted that in Minnesota. He is a far left Marxist.
Starting point is 00:12:13 You have two Marxists on the ticket. So if there was any flirting around with this idea that the remnant of the old Democrat Party still existed, You're incorrect. It is completely and totally officially dead with this pick. So we've got this coming up. Also, keeping my delegates still have to vote for him to be on the ticket. So it's not done yet. It's not done until August.
Starting point is 00:12:33 We're going to explain how this, the Minnesota, Pennsylvania effect with electorally. We're also going to get into some polling. She's probably going to get a bump from her base on this. But I don't think it's going to last long time. I think that's going to be really up to the media to make that last. We're going to get into the crucial week for Harris. We're going to get into Trump's polling as well. Democrats, where is Biden, by the way, the latest of foreign policy and so much more.
Starting point is 00:13:00 So we get a lot to get into. Burn a gun. Now look, oh, I get it. I'm right with you. I would love to be able to take my 9 millimeter and, you know, everything I have, a full armory everywhere I go. It would be great. But we have gun-free zones and we have, you know, some states aren't as friendly or don't
Starting point is 00:13:17 pay attention to reciprocity as they should. And I don't want to be left defenseless. You know, I was telling you about I have a friend who lives and works in D.C. And she got her very difficult to get concealed carry there. But by nature of how she has to work to make a living, she has to live and work in D.C. And so when she goes into places that have their stupid do nothing gun-free zone signs, she carries a Berna gun. She actually got it just like a couple of months ago. It's the Burna S.D. is the model she chose.
Starting point is 00:13:42 And it's the most popular model that they have. It is a non-firearm firearm that gives a one-finger salute to the gun-free zone signs. There's no waiting period. There's no background check. It's legal in all 50 states. And it shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can disable threats from up to 50 feet away. Now, there's a ton of different models and they have different colors and different projectiles and accessories. You can go and customize it however you see fit.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. All right, so Google, a judge says that Google has an illegal monopoly. That's what they've ruled.
Starting point is 00:14:43 I had two headlines here and one of them went away. Google has an illegal monopoly for online searches, according to a judge. completely obvious observation to every single person that has a brain and a pair of lungs and can breathe and a huge blow to the tech giant. A district court judge said that the Google search engine has been illegally exploiting its dominance to squash competition, stifle innovation. And they said it could operate. Yeah, because their searches suck. It is, it's, it sucks so bad. It's as bad as Harris's pick for VP. It's so bad. I mean, you can't use it to search at all whatsoever. It's completely pointless and stupid. And I
Starting point is 00:15:19 hate Google. American soldiers are hit in a huge rocket attack on a military base in Iraq as I don't know where Joe Biden was. Where was he sleeping? I don't know. Anthony Blinken had gone out and said something about it and they were telling Iran don't escalate it. Don't escalate it. And then now American soldiers are hit.
Starting point is 00:15:36 It was the A&A Assad base in Iraq. Several American soldiers were wounded. It's the base in the west of the country. It was targeted by two rockets that are Soviet-made rockets. And I'm sure that Iran did not send them over at all to do it. I'm sure, you know, Biden's friends. It says it's the latest of the series of attacks targeting this base in Western Iraq. This is hysterical. Dolce and
Starting point is 00:16:01 Gabana launched a dog perfume. You heard me. You heard me. A dog perfume. It's the first time a big luxury brand has made a pet perfume. And I love how they advertised it. Every walk is a fragrant and fashionable affair. Is it called Doge? No, it's called Fifi. It's named after one of their actual dogs. It's alcohol-free and it's been safety tested and approved by
Starting point is 00:16:29 veterinarians. It's named after one of the co-founder's pets. It retails for under $100. And it's described as an old factory masterpiece featuring Yelang-Leng, Musk, creamy undertones of sandalwood. And the bottle features a 24-carriage I don't like anything that's like played
Starting point is 00:16:46 in any whatever gold, unless I can wear it. It's 24-carriced paupil-plated paw print, and it's inspired by the unwavering love of Dominical Dolce's loyal companion, Fifi, his dog. Which, is it
Starting point is 00:17:03 a doodle? That's like the most important thing. I just think it's hysterical that of all the people to release a dog perfume. Of course, it would be Dolce and Cabana. Let's see, Arizona, I don't really care about this. Ex-Trump attorney Jenna Ellis is cooperating. in the Arizona case charges are to be dropped.
Starting point is 00:17:20 I would imagine because she's being just killed by her legal fees. We have a lot more on the way. We've got some polling and more. Stick with us.

Starting point is 00:19:27 Subscribe on YouTube, Apple, or your favorite podcast platform. He abandoned us. I mean, what the hell kind of leader does that? I mean, he just, as soon as the shots were fired in Iraq, he turned and ran the other way and hung his hat up and quit. I was like, well, for Pete's sake, this guy. quit. And if I say I'm not going to do it, I mean, what the hell kind of leadership is that? But then we fast forward to the election in 2018 in Minnesota, and you try at that time to get people's attention with this story and also with what seems to be a very misleading statement
Starting point is 00:20:01 that he continued to make about his service. It kind of just sat there. You know, when he was a congressman, you know, he bragged that he was, he was a command sergeant, major. I'm the highest ranking person ever in the, in the house. and all this lie that he was telling. The state of Minnesota came out after 2018, after this was exposed, and they said, well, he can say that he served as a command sergeant major, but he can't say he's a retired one because he's not. And that's what he was saying.
Starting point is 00:20:29 And he was saying that, and there was lots of cards coming in the mail for him to be elected. They said right on there he's a retired command sergeant major, just tooting his own horn, just hanging on the coattails of people that actually are command sergeant majors, that went through all the process and put all the time in. This is just one of many veterans that have spoken out against Tim Walls. And what they have decried is his abandonment of not just his fellow soldiers, but of his duty. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you at the bottom of this first hour.
Starting point is 00:21:02 You can listen coast to coast. Find the simulcast. Channel 347, DirecTV. We're also on Rumble and X. And this is, and Alpha News has done a really good job of running down. a lot of this criticism. There was also a letter that was sent in. It was a letter to the editor that was sent in to the West Central Tribune, and it was about Tim Walz. They said that he embellished and selectively omitted facts and circumstances of his military career for years.
Starting point is 00:21:31 They added in this letter, and it was published in November of 2018. They added, quote, we retired command sergeant's major of the Minnesota National Guard field. It's our duty and responsibility to bring forth the truth, as we know it concerning his service record. They put together a timeline of his service, they said. And they also noted that many of the, they said, of the dates and timeframes from his official discharge document. They have all of, like everything. They said it's all been verified. They discussed how he was deployed with a field artillery battalion. And they said the mission, and this was in 2003, the mission was to augment the U.S. Air Force, Europe security forces doing base security
Starting point is 00:22:14 for six months. And he said they weren't replacing any units or military forces so they could deploy to Iraq or Afghanistan. He said it was part of their operation and drawing freedom to Italy. And they said after the units returned to Minnesota in the spring of 2004, Walsh was selected by high-level command sergeants to serve in the position of command sergeant major for their particular battalion and said August of 2004, he was photographed holding up a sign at a protest outside of a Bush campaign rally in southern Minnesota. He was conditioned. promoted in September of 04 to command sergeant major. They said his conditions had been outlined. They also said that the warning order, because he said that he was supposed to meet,
Starting point is 00:22:56 you know, behaving a certain way, et cetera. They said that they noted that the warning order in 05, a warning order was issued, which included the position he was serving in to be prepared to be mobilized for active duty to deployment to Iraq. But on May of 05, he quit. And he left their battalion and its soldiers hanging without its senior non-commissioned officer as the battalion was preparing for deployment. And his excuse was that he had to retire in order to run for Congress, which is false, according to a Department of Defense directive, notes this letter in the West Central Tribune. He could have run and requested permission from the Secretary of Defense before entering active duty as many reservists had. The letter states if he had retired normally and respectfully,
Starting point is 00:23:37 you would think that he would have ensured his retirement documents were correctly filled out and signed and that he would have ensure that he was reduced to master sergeant for dropping out of the academy. Instead, they write, he waited for the paperwork to catch up for him. And his official retirement document states, soldier not available for signature. They noted in September of 05, he was conditionally promoted to command sergeant Major Wals. It was reduced to the, when he was conditionally promoted, he was reduced to master sergeant. They said it took a while for the system to catch up as it was in uncharted territory because nobody quits in the position he was in or drops out of the academy except for him. And they said in November of 05, while the battalion was training
Starting point is 00:24:17 for war at Camp Shelby, Mississippi, they got an offer from retired Master Sergeant Waltz. He offered to fundraise for the battalion bus trip home over Christmas that year. And they were deployed for 22 months. They were restricted, could not speak out against a candidate for office. He claims to be the highest ranking enlisted service member ever to serve in Congress because he was elected a house of representatives in 06. Even though he was conditionally promoted less than eight months, quit before his obligations were met, the letter notes, and was reduced to master sergeant for retirement. Yes, he served at that rank, but he was never qualified at that rank and will never receive retirement benefits at one rank below. They add you be the judge.
Starting point is 00:24:55 These are all, I mean, there's, it's not just one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, There's a herd of these veterans that have been speaking out against them. And these guys signed their name. They had Thomas Barron's command sergeant major, retired, Paul Hare, command sergeant major retired. And then they have a lot of these, a lot of these guys that have been speaking out. And as I said, Alfa News has some of this as well. They said that he had made waltz not going on the mission. One Doug Julin said that, quote, it was a backdoor deal.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Others said that he, quote, let his soul. soldiers down by dodging the deployment so he could run for Congress or by running for Congress. They had a lot. In fact, it was Tom Barron's, who is the retired command sergeant major, who also signed that letter that was sent into the newspaper, who ended up replacing Waltz on the ticket or on deployment, excuse me. And they, Jensen said, excuse me, that in my eyes, today's the day that Waltz is indicted for lack of leadership and unwillingness to do his duty.
Starting point is 00:25:58 it's one of his opponents at the time. I mean, it is, I mean, that's kind of wild. I mean, there's, you know, I just, you know, I kind of trust the veterans that we're serving to speak out on this. But they had all these military whistleblowers that are, that are saying that, you know, he, and he's misrepresenting himself and he's misrepresenting his service on the campaign trail and in office. And there's quite a few of them that are speaking out about this. and one of them who told it's Doug Julin who told Alpha News
Starting point is 00:26:29 they said quote why should we be quiet he uses the military to promote himself when he abandoned his soldiers he let his soldiers down how can you be entrusted to be governor of Minnesota when if something is not to your liking you quit or you serve yourself and not others
Starting point is 00:26:43 end quote uh damn are you telling me that the advance team was is this and yet Kamala Harris still made the decision to go with this guy. Holy cow, we're talking about Minnesota governor now VP for Harris's ticket, Tim Wals. He took, we told you how he took three days to call out the National Guard. We're going to talk more about Wals, but I want to share some of the polling with you as well,
Starting point is 00:27:08 because this is all crazy. The, a couple of things to consider. Let me get into three things. First is that in the RCP averages, Harris has taken a lead in the national head-to-head RCP average for the first time. It's, they're, they are tied. Trump and Harris, according to the real clear politics, a real clear politics, by the way, is a hardcore, uh, a hardcore Republican and they're, they are very much in the Trump camp. But they're also very mathematical. Tom Bevin's a great guy. Uh, they have a handful of polls.
Starting point is 00:27:50 And Trump and Harris, I mean, it's pretty. really even. It gets in, it goes all the way back several weeks. You have New York Times, Santa Pol, Wall Street Journal, Reuters, Ipsis, Harvard Harris, Daly Coast, Rasmussen, CBS, morning console, survey is a ton of different polling. It shows right now the national head-to-head is Harris is 0.2. Now, when you consider with the average margin of error on surveys of these polls is about three points, three and a half points, that's wild. So they are head, and head right now. Now, the question is how is this? Because Republicans have been trying to get their footing, I think, on Harris. Although, I think that's a lot of the RNC not being prepared.
Starting point is 00:28:38 And you should always be prepared. You're in the left and I think some independence that might lean left or in this honeymoon phase for Harris. Because she's got a little bit of a bump. How long is it going to last? Is Walt's going to bring her any kind of a bump? There have their first event this late this afternoon this evening everybody's in Pennsylvania and it's really weird to me by the way that I mean you're snubbing essentially you're snubbing Pennsylvania but you're trying to court Pennsylvanians as well by doing your first event in Philly and you've got you know the governor Josh Shapiro who's going to be standing there on the stage with him
Starting point is 00:29:19 and this is assuming that Shapiro wanted the position but Democrats held him off because, you know, the Jew, his, him being a Jewish man is a factor. His faith is a factor. It's insane. We're even having this conversation
Starting point is 00:29:31 is 20, 24 for crying out loud. So, I don't know what kind of bump waltz brings. Because if she's trying to appeal to, to like, zoomers and millennials, the under 25 crew, they don't vote.
Starting point is 00:29:48 It's not because they can, obviously. It's because historically, since I was a kid, everybody always talks a great game. I mean, when I was in high school, we had rock the vote in the 90s. It was MTV's Rock the Vote.
Starting point is 00:30:01 You remember that, Kane? They had a whole thing, Rock the Vote when they did MTV Beach House and the summer leading up in an election year, it was Rock the Vote. I mean, they did everything. I will never forget, I mean, I will never forget when they interviewed
Starting point is 00:30:12 Newt Gingrich when he was House Speaker, and they were asking him, boxers are briefs. That's where that came from. So they just don't vote. Historically, they don't vote. And I think it's just, it's an age thing. It's not even a specific generation thing. And it's not even a party affiliation thing.
Starting point is 00:30:29 It's just, it is what it is. And when you consider that the majority of adult registered voters don't get out there and vote, you realize that if you get 50% voter turnout, that's crazy, right? That's great. 60% is fantastic. Those are adults, mainly adults. So when you consider that adult registered voters don't always come out and vote, I mean, it kind of puts it in perspective a little bit more about, you know, the younger generations.
Starting point is 00:30:56 And my generation, we're like baby, I was right before 80. So I was, we're like, I'm like Gen X, baby, Gen X, like elderly, octogenarian millennial. I don't know. I don't want to claim it. I'm Gen X for crying out loud. But we didn't vote. I went, because I was kind of always a political nerd. So I went out when I turned 18.
Starting point is 00:31:20 The moment I turned 18 and the first election I could vote and I voted. But not everybody goes out and votes. That's the thing. So if she thinks that that's going to lock in that demo, that shows how that that's why I don't necessarily think this is all Obama. There are a lot of people are like, oh, well, this is Obama who picked this. I don't think so because I think Democrats view Trump honestly as beatable. Because Trump needs to stop doing things like going to Georgia and attacking people.
Starting point is 00:31:48 This is not about whether you like him or not like him. This is about if you want him to win, you're going to acknowledge where there's errors and you're going to fix him. If you're a plant and you don't want him to win, then you're going to recoil in horror whenever anyone brings up mistakes that need to stop and be fixed so as for him to have victory. And I think that the people that are very offended whenever you bring up errors that he makes and that you want to correct when they act like it's a betrayal. I think that there are plants that are trying to divide the right. and I don't think that they have or have any, I don't think they've ever voted for Trump, ever any intention of voting for him. I think that they're fake patriots and they should be pointed out as such.
Starting point is 00:32:26 Because only, only pretenders don't want your candidate to fix problems, right? So if he doesn't keep doing that and he stays very disciplined, then he's going to, then it's going to be a hell of a lot easier for Republicans. But I honestly do think that Democrats believe that he's been. beatable. And I think Obama is playing both sides of it. But I think waltz, I just cannot see waltz as, I mean, he's not in the Obama camp. I just think that they, I don't know, but I also think they're trying to kind of, you know, have a foot in both camps and trying to hedge their bets. That's kind of what it seems like. But so what effect is this going to have, you know, electorally? I think Minnesota was always going to be Democrats. Pennsylvania less so. Because remember, in 2020, it was just one and a half points that Biden took Pennsylvania from Trump.
Starting point is 00:33:25 And now you have this Josh Shapiro who's, he's a leftist, but he's more, he's, the only reason they can call him moderate is because his shrine to Carl Marx inside of his house is smaller than everyone else's. I mean, there's really, he's, I mean, he's a far leftist. He's not a moderate. But he's, but he's, he's, he's, he's, he's not a moderate. But he. he is well spoken. He handles himself a lot better than a lot of his Democrat counterparts who were governors. And he, you know, because he kind of lets his legislature do a lot. You know, he can kind of claim by way of inaction more of a moderate record than not. So, I mean, that would have been the smart pick. But they chose an ideological pick because they are trying to stop the hemorrhage. We're going to talk more about this.
Starting point is 00:34:14 the folks over at Hillsdale, an actual educational institution. Hillsdale was founded to pursue truth and defend liberty.

Starting point is 00:36:47 You know, I don't believe in abortion, but I may for the people who are like, you know what, I think this changes my vote. And I kind of want to abort them. No, it's not murder. It's up to me, right? It's whether or not I value their life. And that's what makes all the difference. It's my choice.
Starting point is 00:37:01 Their body my choice. How do I get it? Actually, it's also my body. Because if any of my tax dollars are going towards their sustenance, it's my body, too. Do what I want. But how lame is that? That's their, that doesn't make me want to vote for someone. It makes me think you're a nerd.

And that was a very real thing. And I kept the windows open for as long as I could, because I felt like that was such a touchstone of what was happening. That's Tim Walsh's wife. I mean, I just love my windows open while the riots were happening. and they were burning stuff because I love the smell of burning things. I just wanted the smell of burning things to come through my window.
Starting point is 00:40:04 You know, so nice. You know, most people would just like go to Walmart and get one of them Yankee candles. You know, them cinnamon ones, those are delicious. And they would burn that. But damn, girlfriend's going, no, I love the burning of other people's livelihoods and their automobiles. I loved it. loved it i love feeling smelling hearing the screams smelling the farce mhm it's what she said that's what she said let's be real who says this these people are crazy godly welcome back to the program
Starting point is 00:40:43 top of the second hour who in the hell says that stuff yeah those riots you know what i did i left my windows opening up smelling of a smelling of the burning buildings and the Tar Fars. Just there That is I think the most Karen thing I've ever heard. Sorry Karen's. That's for real though. You all know. That's crazy. What does it mean like and it was a real thing? As opposed to
Starting point is 00:41:12 not real? Like are you Do you? Are things normally not real to you? When people say things like that I feel like they want to say and I really like that but they don't. They know how nutty that sounds so they say something less nutty like that was very real. Well, yeah. So she legit, like, left her windows open
Starting point is 00:41:37 so she could smell the burning of businesses and people's cars. Quick, quick check. Is that weird? And by the way, apparently her daughter also coordinated with writers to let them know that the National Guard would not be activated one night. Well, So it's a mostly peaceful ticket. That's the wife of Tim Walz, of Harris Walls. Is it a bad beer garden, a crappy law farm, or a really weird presidential ticket?
Starting point is 00:42:17 Take your pick. I mean, if it's cyber, getting distracted. First off, welcome. Dana Lash with you. Top of the second hour. The, if it was a bad beer garden, you could have Elizabeth Warren as the wench. here, sweetie, would you like a beer? Still one of the weirdest things I've ever seen in my life.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Next to that, Jiminy, Christmas. So, I mean, again, most people, you know, they would just, you know, burn a candle, Cynthia. You would just burn a candle. You wouldn't be like, oh, I love, what is, can I just, I need to break this down. Is that supposed to make the people. who were in the streets writing, is that some sort of like appeal to them? Wow, I didn't know I stood on Tim Wals until I heard his wife talk about how she loved the smell of us burning everybody's stuff. And then I was like, I like her. What in the world? You cannot make fun of this.
Starting point is 00:43:22 You cannot make fun of this enough. You can't. This is who Harris picked. This is why if Obama is involved in this, they did this just to humble her. They allowed this to humble her. Because you are going to have this loudmouth boss hog looking dude come out. Don't send me another. That is so mean to actor who plays boss hog, his name. Don't do that. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:43:49 Just because you know it's true. Look at him. This is, didn't he, there are so, I got so many videos of this, dude. Hold on. Let me look at our million audio video cuts. Hold on. Let me look at it. It's bad.
Starting point is 00:44:03 I mean, so can we look back, flashback. Tim Walts, they are so leftist, and they want everyone to know how left they are, right? I just thought of something that I can't say on air, so I'm going to wait until we're there on break, or I cover my mouth to say it to Kane, so you guys can't read my lips. But in the meantime, this is when Tim Wall signing, he signed a law, everybody gets a driver's license. Are you here legally? You don't know? We don't care.
Starting point is 00:44:30 You get a driver's license. You get one. You get one. This is AudioSumby 10. It's done. A packed room at the St. Paul Armory erupted after the governor's signature made driver's license for all
Starting point is 00:44:44 the law of the land. Where's Jill when you need her? Cise Pue Pua de way. Where's she at? I can't. Oh, wait, but there's more. Audio sound by 12. Tim Walls.
Starting point is 00:45:00 Well, hell yes. Cities should be sanctuaries. Listen to this. Should Minnesota be a sanctuary state? If the definition of that is that the federal government enforces immigration law and local law enforcement enforces local law, then yes. Should cities be allowed to be sanctuary cities? Yes, local control. Sanctuary cities. So, I mean, I feel like then I can do whatever I want. You know, if we're going to pick and choose what laws we want to follow, the last thing that you want to do, is allow me to pick and choose what laws I want to follow.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Because, Kane, there's like five I don't want to follow already. Oh, yeah. There's more. I mean, there's a hell of a lot more than that, but there are five I would very much enjoy to not follow now. Right? I'm just saying. I mean, I can't. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:45:48 I, I just, I can't. This is, he's, this is going to be bad. This is going to be bad. So I think, like I said, we're talking about this pick. And it really is, honestly, one of, it's like the worst pick that Democrats could have made. And it makes it, that doesn't mean it's done. And it doesn't mean that Tim Walz is entirely innocuous either. I mean, the whole, it's weird thing came from Tim Walz.
Starting point is 00:46:18 He's a far left dude. This is all about, it's an ideological pick, not a strategic pick. Because if they were looking at strategy, they would have picked Josh Shapiro. And I love how Babylon B says, Josh Shapiro got that. What is it? What did they say? Death to Israel tat on his neck for nothing. That's, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:38 So this is her new running mate. This is a guy who is a very far, far left individual. Very far left individual. I mean, this is, he is one of those who, it's not about abortion. It is abortion at any stage up until the moment of birth and did not, want laws that require doctors if there was an abortion, especially if it was a child that could survive outside of the womb. It's a version of the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, which was about if a child is viable when it's born. And this happens. This is what people don't, I can't
Starting point is 00:47:19 believe we live in 2024 where we understand the world isn't flat. And we know how the, it's like, you know, it's not like pre-Galileo times people. I mean, holy hell, we've got science. And there are people who literally don't even know how abortions are performed, or that you can still have a viable infant born from one that if a procedure goes wrong. And there were laws, and this really came up to fight, what was like 06 or something like that, the Born Alive Infant Protection Act in Illinois, where Democrats were fighting against it. Well, there are similar pieces of legislation that came up in various states. And in Minnesota, Walsh was against it. So the idea that if an infant is born alive after viable. It can survive after an abortion procedure is ineffective, meaning the
Starting point is 00:48:04 baby isn't marked. Then doctors do not have to provide treatment or any kind of render any sort of aid to said infant. That is an extreme position, especially when Democrats have always said, no, no, no, we believe that abortion should be safe and rare. That's all they were saying. the majority of Americans think that there should be a limitate, and these are include Democrat voters. This is Pew, Rasmussen, Kwynopeak, I mean, there's a, I have a slew of surveys out there. They, the majority of Americans believe 15 weeks is a decent amount of time to figure, get your life in order and figure your stuff out and then determine if you're going to have an abortion or not. And again, I'm not, this isn't about talking about liking or just like an abortion. I'm talking about what the majority.
Starting point is 00:48:55 of American survey Democrat and Republican have fallen on. That's a commonality right there. That's where it averages out. And so in every single survey for the past like 10 years, by the way. And so anything that is not that, anything that's, you know, when you're talking about abortion up to the moment of birth, that is an extreme position. And Democrats, even back in 2020, this was getting into the runoff election in Georgia going into 21, when you had the piece of legislation coming up in the Senate where Democrat senators were signing off on it, and it was about passing a bill that was allowing abortion up till the moment of birth, and also it was going to remove any kind of legislative block. It would repeal any kind of prohibition that had previously stopped taxpayer dollars
Starting point is 00:49:51 from being used specifically for it, even though Planned Parenthood, according to their own financial data, receives over half a billion taxpayer dollars annually. And we know this because they put it up on their website. You can go every year and see the entire breakdown of their financials, and you can see how much of that federal money is from taxpayer dollars. So that's where I get my info from. Don't take it up with me. You take it up with them. So this is where Tim Walsh falls at.
Starting point is 00:50:24 He also wanted the word women to be struck from new laws and replaced with pregnant people as it pertains to anything related to maternity care, abortion, etc. So he wanted women to be replaced with pregnant people. He has declared Minnesota a refuge for transgender surgeries and therapies for minors. And he backs funding it with taxpayer dollars. So if a parent elects to have their 13-year-old's penis removed because they want to identify as a female, regardless of whether or not they've gone through puberty, regardless of the fact that there exists no long-term studies that show the abuse of hormones, the only thing that we have are like women who are in their 70s now who were kind of like guinea pigs with hormone treatment when they were starting menopause and the disastrous effects on their health when it's not done correctly as all we got um this is a problem and he wants that to be publicly funded uh that's a major issue and he's been very very proud of that he's been very very proud of of pushing for that uh he also created audio sound bite 18 during covid a snitch line so
Starting point is 00:51:40 So in Minnesota, if you were out and about, thanks to Governor Tim Wals, if you were out and about and you saw someone without a face diaper on, you could literally call this number. And this is what it sounds like. Audio somebody 18. Hello, you have reached the Department of Public Safety. Stay at home hotline. The information you leave is considered public information at the tone. Please leave the following information. Your name?
Starting point is 00:52:08 your callback number, how the stay-at-home order is being violated and where the stay-at-home order was violated. Thank you. Oh my gosh. And it wasn't just for staying-at-home if they were without a face mask, if they, anything. This is the kind of stuff that he far left, actually further left than Josh Shapiro. So this is what I say when this is an ideological pick, not a strategic pick. Now coming up, what is that mean? What is that, does that put Pennsylvania in play? Yes. We're going to talk about that coming up as well. Oh, man, there's a lot of stuff to hit. As we move, our partners that help bring you free radio. It's new partners to the show, burn a gun. It's the non-firearm firearm, B-Y-R-N-A. And it's a good option to have when you can't carry, you know, your firearm somewhere. And I always carry with me. There are sometimes when I am required to go to places that do not. allow me to carry. And the cool thing about Burna is that Burna doesn't care about your gun-free zone signs. There's no waiting period. There are no background checks. It's legal in all 50 states. And the most popular model, the Burna SD is what does. It shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can disable
Starting point is 00:53:18 threats from up to 50 feet away. When you compare it to stun guns, stun guns are nice, but they got like one or two shots. This is a seven-round capacity with Burna SD. I have a friend that lives and works in Washington, D.C. And even though she has a concealed carry license and she's got a firearm, she can't carry it hardly anywhere. And she has to live in D.C. because she works. and the nature of her job requires her. So she got a Berna SD and she wanted to make sure that she had a way to protect herself. You see what the crime rate in D.C. is like. So that's what Burna SD does.
Starting point is 00:53:47 It gives you options when the state's trying to limit your options. You can check out all of the models. You can check out the different projectiles they have, the accessories, all of it at at burner.com slash Dana. And that's also where you can get 10% off. B-Y-R-N-A.com. slash Dana for 10% off. And now, all of the news you would probably miss.
Starting point is 00:54:11 It's time for Dana's Quick 5. So Tropical Storm Debbie has killed at least six, including three children after it smashed into Florida on Monday, sustained high winds of 45 miles per hour in torrential rain. A 13-year-old was killed when a tree fell on his home in Levy County, Florida. A 12-year-old was killed also by a falling tree. And a woman in a 12-year-old were killed in a car crash on wet roads. and that was on Saturday night in Dixie County where the storm first made landfall and then a 19 year old
Starting point is 00:54:39 another large tree fell into a porch onto the home and killed him as well so this is it's just true I mean that's why they're saying take shelter and go somewhere where a tree's not going to get you also but man alive this Twin Peaks director David Lynch who doesn't he he had a Twitter account
Starting point is 00:54:57 I don't know if he updates it anymore or on X where he would say happy Friday every Friday. He would be like, it's a Friday, you know, and he was hysterical. But he said he's unlikely to direct again in person and that he cannot leave his home due to emphysema. And then he also said that
Starting point is 00:55:13 he goes, he goes, I can't go out, I can only walk a short distance, form out of oxygen. And he said that he actually enjoyed smoking and then it made it hard for him to do that. So he's sad because he can't smoke anymore because of it. So yeah. Apparently,
Starting point is 00:55:29 they studied this. Our faces grow to match our names. I don't even know what that means. Adult's facial features tend to evolve over time to align with social stereotypes associated with their names, a phenomenon known as face name congruence or self-fulfilling prophecy. This is insane. I didn't, they said that it's a study published in proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. And it's Israel's Reichman University.
Starting point is 00:55:57 They asked people to match names to faces. people could accurately match adult faces to corresponding names, but they struggled with the kids. But they actually, that's wild. Now I want to do, I want to see if, like, I want to see if I can match people's names to faces. That's really very interesting. And another survey says it really does hurt to think, which is probably why the left doesn't do it. It was a study done in the Netherlands. And they say that in Rodbode University that, yes, it can actually hurt your brain.
Starting point is 00:56:26 They can get a brain ache essentially when you're thinking really hard. Well, stick with us. More in store. Sponsors for this portion of our program. It's Black Raffle Coffee. Oh my gosh, you guys. They give so much brat. Just drink the damn coffee. It's good coffee, right?
Starting point is 00:56:44 And they have all these, they have like the best beans. They get the best beans from all over the world. And then they bring them to their facilities in Tennessee and Utah. And they roast them all throughout the week. Now, this is the only coffee that I will drink. Everything else tastes like sadness and disappointment. It's just awful. Everything else makes your life miserable. Black Rifle coffee, though, it's affordable, and it's the best coffee you're going to get. Veteran owned. They hire veterans and active duty, and they support veteran and first responder causes like equipment and health issues, all of that. Now, here's the cool thing. They have, I mean, they got ground coffee, whole bean, cake cups ready to drink. The best way to get it, though, is with the coffee club.

I think that you guys have got to do a better job at actually forcing Kamala Harris to answer questions. This is a person who's been the presumptive Democrat nominee for 16 days. She hasn't taken a single real question from a reporter. The American people deserve to get to know the people who want to lead them.
Starting point is 00:58:31 And I think it's shameful for Kamala Harris, but increasingly for the media, that she's taking a basement strategy of running from reporters, instead of getting in front of them, answering tough questions about her record, and letting the American people know who she is. President Trump and I take hostile questions. We take non-hostile questions. We get out there and talk to people because we respect the American people enough to want to persuade them and not to try to run from them.
Starting point is 00:58:54 So I think you guys got to do a better job. That's my humble opinion. That was brilliant. That was J.D. Vance. I watched that live. He was on obviously the Trump campaign plane doing, he and Trump are kind of doing like a tag team sort of approach. Trump's doing fundraisers and J.D. Vance is in Pennsylvania. And they had, the press was asking him about, you know, Tim Walts and all these other, you know, all these other questions. And he was, you know, he was answering them. And he was saying, look, he, he, he, he was asking him about, he, he, he was saying, look, he, he, he, he, he, he was saying, he. He was. He was. He was. He was. He. He was. He was. He. He was. He was. He was. He. He He even told the press. He even was telling the press that were there. Look, you know, you, I know a lot of you, you're, you know, the ones I know, you're nice, speak it along, et cetera. And he was very complimentary, very amiable. And he said, but I just have to say, you know, when you heard that soundbite just then.
Starting point is 00:59:42 And that's a legitimate soundbite because Kamala Harris has been the assumed nominee now for, what, two weeks. And she hasn't held a single press conference. She really is not, her whole campaign is being very, very, very, very. micromanaged so as to keep her from having to engage with the press because she does not perform well with the press and jd vance looked very much in his element there he answering questions from the press he did it while remaining calm while looking like he was in command of the situation and he actually didn't do a word salad talk around it he actually answered their questions and uh it was um i think that's that was a strong point and i and a very strong point and and very legitimate legitimate
Starting point is 01:00:28 one too. I hate how it's being portrayed in the media though. This is how media I did it. J.D. Vance lashes out at media over Kamala Harris coverage. You guys have got to do a better job. That's not lashing out. And I cannot stand the hyperbole of this. I mean, it's so, it's so damn annoying. You have to realize when you see, I hate it when they're like, so-and-so lashes out or so-and-so slams. I hate the hyperbole of these headlines. And I understand that the purpose is to be click baity because people love drama. They love it. They love drama no matter how contrived it is. And so they will, you know, they want to get people looking at it. They want to get the left looking at it. Like, what did he say about our side? And then they want the right to look at it to see, oh, wow, he slammed the other side.
Starting point is 01:01:17 But that's not what happened at all. I mean, he was actually completely opposite of that. He gave a very, his critique was not any more aggressive than the most aggressive. question that he received from any member of the press there. And I watch like almost 10 minutes of that because it was they had a very, very long little pop up little press avail there. And that's typical when you're on the campaign trail. But sometimes I think that they put that out there to make it look like he's unhinged or not in command of his own emotions or that he has a, has a temper issue. And it's not he was totally, I mean, you saw he was totally fine. In fact, when you show the whole thing. I'm not going to play 10 minutes of it. That was the crucial part right there. But when you
Starting point is 01:02:01 see the whole thing, I mean, it looks even, you know, less aggressive because they're, I mean, they're very, the reporters actually were on having a good conversation with them and they were being very cool. So it's, I mean, it's just fascinating to see how that's being, um, how that's all being manipulated for, uh, the press, for the purpose of the press. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. I'm still trying to get over the sound bite. I'm going to need it again, came of Gwen Walsh. I need where she talks about how during the riots in Minnesota, she's Tim Walts's the governor's now VP picks wife, she enjoyed the burning smell of tires and private property. Like she kept her windows open, she said, as I guess,
Starting point is 01:02:56 way to express solidarity with the people destroying private businesses. This is one of the weirdest soundbites that I have seen during so far of this election cycle. And it's up there with RFKs. I got to say, watch this. I would say those first days, you know, when there were riots, I could smell the burning tires. And that was that was a very real thing. And I kept the windows open for as long as I could because I felt like that was such a touchstone of what was what was happening. See, she kept them open in solidarity with the rioters. So she kept, that's honestly, that is one of the most white progressive things I've ever seen in my life. She kept her windows open so as to express some solidarity with the people in the streets,
Starting point is 01:03:48 burning down businesses, livelihoods, and private property. And, you know, my comment was, well, damn Gwen, most people were just like burn a, yank, candle, but you know, you went all out. That's bizarre. I mean, think about what she's saying there. She was enjoying smelling the destruction. She was doing it as a form of solidarity. There's so much to unpack there. I mean, heaven forbid, they call out the National Guard. So that means they're smelling the destruction. And her husband was criticized for waiting three days before calling out the National Guard. They could smell the destruction from their home. And Tim Walts did, Tim Walsh did nothing, nothing.
Starting point is 01:04:26 And she's like, oh, well, you know. Of course, this is what he had to say. We're never going to stop playing this. Audio Sond bite 7. Listen to this. But we can get out there. Reach out. Make the case.
Starting point is 01:04:36 And for one thing, don't ever shy away from our progressive values. One person's socialism is another person's neighborly now. Wow. Play this audio. This was, so there's one video going out. It's a clip of a woman in Minneapolis. She's disabled. And I remember seeing this when this happened.
Starting point is 01:04:55 She talked to the press. It's ABC's Channel 5, their affiliate up there. She was talking to the press, and she was heartbroken because she says, I don't have any. I remember, I think we played this, actually, when this happened. This is what Gwen Walsh was enjoying smelling, the destruction of this woman's life. Listen. I live in the Harris right back here, and I'd seen them as they came down Lake Street. But then they turned and started coming over.
Starting point is 01:05:24 here and I'm sitting out looking out my window and they went straight to office magazine dollar store and every store over here that I go to I have nowhere to now I have no way to get there because the buses aren't running these people did this for no reason it's not going to bring George back here George is in a better the place that we are. Last night, I'm going to be honest. I wish I was worth your. Remember, Gwen Walsh said that she enjoyed the smell of that woman's neighborhood burning.
Starting point is 01:06:07 You know, all the stuff that she smelled in that clip when she said, you know, I left my windows open and I, she was smelling opportunity burn. She was smelling the businesses, family-owned businesses burning. minority communities burning. Interestingly enough, by at the hands of a lot of out of town people. She was smelling the destruction. And she and her husband stayed in their little mansion. And for three days, they did nothing. They did absolutely nothing. Tim Walts didn't call out the National Guard. They didn't do anything. While police were being attacked, my friend Hulio Roos, was there on the ground and he got tons of video of police being attacked, assaulted, beaten upside the head, everything.
Starting point is 01:07:00 Tim Walts did nothing to help. But now his wife Gwen goes out, although this was a little bit of flashback audio, but his wife Gwen has said, oh yeah, I enjoyed it. She kept the windows of her months open in solidarity with the people who were destroying businesses. And that's who they are. that's who these people are. I mean, you look at his record. I mean, it's just one of the craziest things.
Starting point is 01:07:28 I don't know what he brings to the table for Kamala Harris other than a far left. He brings prairie Marxism. Someone was saying prairie populism, but I need people to realize populism is not like a political belief set. It is a political messaging. It is a type of messaging. It is not itself a set of beliefs. like conservative or progressive or Republican or Democrat or Marxist or socialist. It is not a set of beliefs.
Starting point is 01:07:59 It's a style of messaging those beliefs. Anybody can use populism to a certain extent. Some populism is fine, but sometimes it can go completely over the top. So Waltz is using this populist prairie Marxism as a way. that's, I mean, that's why I think ultimately he was picked. Everyone keeps saying, my friend David Harsani has been tracking the press, pushing a talking point about Tim Wals. They're trying to say his foxy demeanor, foxy demeanor over and over again, headline after headline after headline, article after headline, article after article after article,
Starting point is 01:08:38 everything written in the past 24 hours. So the narrative, the press is trying to shape Walsh before the right can. and so they're trying to say he's got folksy demeanor he's a midwestern dad and that uh all that's how they're trying to that's how they're trying to portray him they're trying to act like he's just this you know the centrist but he's not he's anything but i mean he's anything but a centrist i mean he was a guy who was pushing a lot of these marxist policies all the way back to the 90s before the rest of the democrat party was i mean he in fact let me pull this up i mean his party is actually the democratic farmer labor party
Starting point is 01:09:12 it's it's not it's a subset within the democrat party they were created out of the 40s between from socialists and from the democrats so i mean that's and it's been super far left progressive it's it's socialist and amy klobuchar is a member of the democrat farmer labor party or it's also called the dFL it's associated with the democrat party but it's very it's very different from it in some respects. It's like a subset. They have a lot of the same beliefs, but they don't have as much success statewide or nationally as the Democrat Party.
Starting point is 01:09:51 But they're very, very, very, it's Marxist left. It's Marxist leftism. And so whenever there's like this caveat or this subset within the Democrat party, it's usually what it means. He's not a centrist. Centrist don't win and with
Starting point is 01:10:06 Democrats. Democrats don't promote centrists. Democrats stopped promoting centrist since before Mel Miller spoke at the RNC way back in like the early aughts. I mean, this is, you know, they have not practiced. They've not supported their centrist for a long time. They ran their pro-life Democrats out of the party. You used to be able to be a pro-life Democrat.
Starting point is 01:10:26 I mean, you used to be able to be a pro-life Democrat back in the late 90s, early aughts. Now you can't anymore. They ran those people out. If you are not a thousand percent on board, your persona non-grada. You are excommunicado. That's it. So he's he want they're going to try to make him out to be the Democrat J.D. Vance. So they are trying. I think that's one of the reasons why maybe perhaps they ended up going with him over. Maybe that's a third reason. I think Shapiro being a Jewish man was the biggest thing with the, with the left. But I think also they wanted to have their own kind of J.D. Vance. But Wals is.
Starting point is 01:11:12 so problematic. Everything from his service and the criticism of it from the soldiers who say he abandoned them and just, you know, abandoned his post so he could go run for office and use all these excuses. They're really trying to style him in the same vein as J.D. Vance, but you can't. But that's the narrative they're trying to push. So keep watch on that because they're going to work overtime to craft it. They want to make him folksier than J.D. Vance. That's what they're going for. So, and they think. think that they got two birds with one stone here because he's such a far left Marxist. They're solidifying their base, making their base happy. And then they're also throwing a bone out to the
Starting point is 01:11:52 flyover people that they're going to need, especially when you look at the blue wall and the sunbelt. And we're going to talk about strategy coming up because I think Democrats are changing their strategy a little bit for that. So we got all of that and more. We got Florida man on the way as well.

It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man. So apparently, you know, there's a lot of flooding right now in Florida. And a man was able to actually catch a catfish in a flooded Florida street in St. Peter. And this or St. Petersburg, Florida, they said that, I mean, because it looks like it's, what, at least
Starting point is 01:13:50 calf deep? Yeah, WFLA viewer, Don DeWitt put a video on Facebook showing him catching fish as they were swimming through the street. That's crazy and also a very easy meal. This story, you're a very easy meal. Let's see here. I'm going to pull up my proper windows. I got a million windows open and I want this one.
Starting point is 01:14:11 All right. So tropical storm Debbie passed and it apparently it apparently blew a million dollars in cocaine up on the Florida on a Florida beach. This is what gets me. Tampa Bay says that it's a common occurrence. A beach goer found 25 packages that cocaine washed up on the shore in Florida Keys on Sunday, according to Border Patrol. It was on the Ismorelata, right? I think I probably not. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:42 But they said that the assistant chief patrol agent for the Border Patrol's Miami Sector said it had a street value of over a million dollars, 25 packages, 70 pounds of cocaine. A good Samaritan discovered it, contacted the authorities. I mean, and it had like a little weird logo on it. And they said it's last week. That's when a driver in July, we had this headline diving for spiny lobster from a kilo of cocaine. and then last Tuesday somebody cleaning up trash near sea wall in Key Largo
Starting point is 01:15:12 found a brick of cocaine and then in June divers off Key Largo thought it was a bunch of trash floating in about 100 feet of water but it turned out to be 25 kilos of individually wrapped cocaine. Lots of cocaine floating in and around there. That's crazy
Starting point is 01:15:27 that is so wild to me that it that's such and they're like yeah that's a common occurrence that's how common is that that's wild. Also We got Oh
Starting point is 01:15:42 A Florida man is calling out to coyotes Calling out to Coyotes survived an attack By Armadillos Okay, I didn't know they could attack you Armadillos? It was in Mount Plymouth The Mount Plymouth neighborhood And it was caught on security camera I'll play the video for you tomorrow
Starting point is 01:15:57 But a guy was caught off guard by two armadillos And he didn't want his last name Her or shared because Yeah probably because two Armadillos Attacked you dude.

And I think seeing a plan that's out there talking about it with folks knowing that he's not going to do anything. He talks about this wall.
Starting point is 01:17:24 I always say, let me know how high it is. If it's 25 feet, then I'll invest in the 30-foot ladder factory. That's not how you stop this. Everybody had all the people on the left had that talking point. And I loved how they all went and said the same. same thing on cable news. Like they were the ones who came up with it. Look how clever they are. Clever girl. That was Tampontan, Tim Walls, who, yeah, that's what I said. Who was talking to CNN some flashback audio. He's the crazy pick that Kamala Harris, they decided to make it hard on
Starting point is 01:17:53 themselves by not picking, which looked like an easy point with Josh Shapiro, but, you know, he's Jewish and they'd have a problem with that. So welcome back to the program, top of this third hour with you. I think it's interesting that the guy who came up with their J.D. Vance is weird. Is the guy who also signed a law requiring that, you know, tampons being elementary school bathrooms of boys. You know. What do? No, not like a craft project either.
Starting point is 01:18:24 I mean, literally, starting, this was in 2020, well, actually early 24, tampons and menstrual products. It's going to be in Minnesota public schools and in the boys' bathrooms. Again, if you're a dude and you're bleeding from another region, you need a doctor, not a tampon. Okay. So that's what they call him tampon, Tim. He's telling you what, he's been criticized over a lot of stuff and his records coming out. I mean, I think it's totally fine that they went and picked this boss hog landmine. Go right ahead.
Starting point is 01:18:58 I mean, this is a guy that signed the bill that would allow the state to come in and challenge you for custody of your kids if you didn't affirm there, the genitals that's, they wanted to pretend that they have. I mean, the state can actually come and take your kids if you don't affirm their pretend gender. Well, I'm a pretend millionaire who gets arrested if they don't acknowledge that. You know, I would love to know. But yeah, they did. That was an actual thing. It was a piece of legislation that he actually signed.
Starting point is 01:19:28 He also signed an executive order declaring Minnesota a sanctuary state for minors, like kids, like who are, he invited families, including people who were transitioning six-year-old kids, like six-year-old boys whose genitals they were tucking and all of this other stuff. I'm not even making this up. That's like what happens. I mean, it's some of the craziest stuff I've ever seen. I mean, he allows men to participate in women's sports. He signed an order demanding that children get to go genital mutilation surgeries when they're not even anywhere near puberty.
Starting point is 01:20:03 and yeah, they have period products in all school bathrooms for grades four through 12. So boys can go in the bathroom and they can get a tampon. That's why they call them tampon Tim. Your tax dollars pay for that in Minnesota. But J.D. Vance, who once pointed out that there was Diet Mountain Dew on a table at a campaign event, is weird because he pointed out that there was Diet Mountain Dew on the table at a campaign event when he was running for Senate. I mean, what's weirder than, hey, boys, you want some. tampons? What's weirder than that? Yeah. Or yeah, you can go ahead and cut your eight-year-old's
Starting point is 01:20:46 male copulatory organ off. Go ahead. Turn him in. Just, you know, let's go ahead and do some weird science. Make him into a girl. Good night, people. Come on. But that's who he is. I, again, I don't really think that this puts, well, I really don't see how this puts at all whatsoever. her. I mean, it doesn't do anything to help her electorally. Minnesota is a pretty, I mean, it's a pretty dependable blue state. And when you look at the polling, I mean, historically, one of the things that I went and was looking back at was, you know, some of the polling for this. I mean, it's, I, it just doesn't make, Pennsylvania was such the obvious choice. I'm totally fine. they don't want Pennsylvania, though.
Starting point is 01:21:38 Pennsylvania, very interesting. Trump versus Harris. Trump is up plus 1.8 RCP average. It's well within the margin of error. So they're statistically tied, really. They're tied, and it's a state that Biden only won by one and a half points, so that tracks. And it's considered to be a toss-up state.
Starting point is 01:21:57 You have 19 electoral votes for Pennsylvania. Remember, you have to have 270 electoral votes to win, whereas Minnesota has always been a lean Democrat state. They have 10 electoral votes. And I think some people think, oh, it's Minnesota. It's like northern Midwest. No, it's still, it's, you know, some people say it's like Canada Jr. In terms of policy.
Starting point is 01:22:20 So you can't just assume that it's going to be very, you know, a lot more Republican. So my whole thought is that they're really trying to, change up their strategy a little bit and maybe kind of put some of the Sunbelt in play. Sunbelt meaning you know you've got Arizona, you've got Georgia
Starting point is 01:22:47 Sunbelt is you know all the warm sunny states southern tier so you've got Alabama, you got Arizona, you got Florida, you got Georgia you got Mississippi, New Mexico, Texas South Carolina you know things like some parts of Nevada Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah.
Starting point is 01:23:06 And of the sunbelt, you're looking at Georgia and Arizona. So Arizona's in play. Georgia is in play for Democrats. And I think what they're doing is gambling on maybe perhaps not having Pennsylvania and going for Georgia. Now, why do I say that? Because they're tied in Georgia. This is why I was saying Trump needed to be careful about Georgia. Now you understand.
Starting point is 01:23:31 This is one of the reasons why I was kind of. suggesting a Kemp. Because Pennsylvania, even without Vance, again, a point and a half Biden, Pennsylvania is a toss up. Georgia is a toss up. Now Georgia has 16 electoral votes. Pennsylvania has 19 electoral votes. But looking at, and I'm going to pull up some of Georgia's polling here, Trump's lead in Georgia isn't really a lead. It's point eight. It's a lot tighter. and he keeps picking a fight with Republicans in Georgia. Please, for the love of all things, holy, stop it. That's not a smart move to make.
Starting point is 01:24:13 Because people in Georgia are going to like their Georgia Party officials. You know, there's a little ownership there. There's a little hometown team there. You've got to build on that for wins. So I think Democrats are actually counting on that a little bit. And I think they're looking to pick up Georgia, loose Pennsylvania. And I think that's the play they're making. So they figured, okay, well, we don't really necessarily have to have a governor
Starting point is 01:24:31 Josh Shapiro on the ticket if this is our play. I think if Pennsylvania had been a part of their play, I think they absolutely would have had him. But I think that they were looking at where is Trump the most vulnerable? He's more vulnerable in Georgia than he is in Pennsylvania. So, and again, I'm looking at this. He and Harris have never been more than one point at max going back weeks and a number of surveys in Georgia apart. And real clear politics, this and this average, I mean, they have the Hill, they have, I mean, even a couple of Republican ones, too, here, Republican surveys. So the, I mean, he's only point eight ahead and in Pennsylvania,
Starting point is 01:25:11 uh, he's, you know, he stands. I think he, I think he is a little bit more competitive in Pennsylvania. Virginia 13 electoral votes also a toss up. Now remember I had said that Yonkin would have been a good pick for Trump as well. I don't dislike Vance. I'm just, I'm looking at the map is how I'm looking at this. I'm looking at the map specifically and, and looking to see how this this all plays out. So, you know, he this and in this, I think that he really, he could have done a camp, he could have done a Yonkin and I think he would have been good. Vance from Pennsylvania, I don't know necessarily if that was a strategy that they were thinking of like this will put Pennsylvania, or not sorry, Pennsylvania, Ohio. Ohio is, I mean, when looking at Ohio, Ohio was already lean Republican.
Starting point is 01:26:06 17 electoral votes, it already leans Trump, and Ohio leaned Trump back in 2020. So I don't think that that's, you know, Pennsylvania was, is, you know, is, I think the play that they're going to try to make. But honestly, and looking at Democrats, this is what's dumb. Because that is a gamble. It's a gamble that is based on Republicans messing up. So what does that tell you about what Democrats think about how Republicans are going to perform in Georgia? You've got to read all the tea leaves on these. I mean, Kane, if you think I'm wrong or over-analizing it, tell me, but that's what it really feels like.
Starting point is 01:26:46 It's true. What do you think about Republicans in Georgia? Like right now, I think there's a narrative that I think Democrats would like to keep going. And I think that... What is that? Well, just the idea of any unification in the GOP being fractured. and I think they enjoy that narrative
Starting point is 01:27:10 and however they can perpetuate that narrative is what they're going to do. Of course. I mean, of course they're going to do that. So to me, again, I just feel like this is Democrats doing a sunbelt play. Now, remember, delegates still have to vote for Walsh to be on this ticket.
Starting point is 01:27:25 You still got to make it through the convention. So there is that. A couple of other things. And I'm going to have a post-up that gets into the criticism of Walsh's military record, all of this as well. And we're going to, we're going to follow all of this. The economy that poses a risk to Harris's momentum big time,
Starting point is 01:27:43 by the way, that's what part of the messaging should be for Democrats if they're smart with us. And that's one of the things that Trump should be focusing on, not Republican infighting, he should be focusing on the economy because you have 538 that's saying that Harris is leading in the national average. The RCP has noted that today Harris pulled ahead barely in the national average for the first time. disregard this because in 2020 the polling was not incorrect and I think some people were trying to say that it was I really don't feel like they knew what they were reading or they weren't paying attention because we were looking at this every day and I'm like I hear people keep talking about this red way but it wasn't
Starting point is 01:28:23 evidenced by any of the surveys that were taken leading up to the election and it what I think that Democrats kind of tried fluffing stuff with the polls in 2016 and it didn't work so I think that for the most part aside from trying to influence certain narratives they have been it. But this is very similar to what the surveys were showing in 2020. So I don't discount that it's close and never underestimate the media's ability or dedication to rehabilitating a candidate. And they're doing that with Harris. They hated her just a month ago. Now she's the best thing since sliced bread. So this is stuff that you've got to keep in mind going forward. Now, what
Starting point is 01:29:01 alleviates this and what puts more distance between the candidates in favor of Republicans is Republicans being strong on messaging as it pertains to the economy and the border. And this is very easy to do, considering all of the numbers. I mean, that should still be the number one story. You know, the economy veering, you know, towards this crash, this recession, that should be a major story. You could easily make this case in states, you know, you got Wisconsin that's considered a toss up, Michigan that's considered a toss up. Pennsylvania. You know, you have a blue wall that is, you know, by RCP averages and even by some of the surveys that 538 has taken,
Starting point is 01:29:35 And these are considered, you know, the blue wall was, that was the blue wall for a reason. It's blue for a reason. And now you've got these states that are actually coming up and being competitive. But you also have to pay attention to the states that are becoming competitive and the states that are new to not being competitive. And so we can't lose the focus here with this stuff. But Arizona's a toss up. Arizona, Senate, that's going to count. That's 11 electoral votes also.
Starting point is 01:29:59 But you have, you know, Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, the most of those, Pennsylvania with 19 electoral. votes. Georgia and North Carolina similar. And then, you know, 15 in Michigan, we need to really pay attention to what they're doing with Georgia and what they're doing with Arizona because those are some, you know, two big states there.
Starting point is 01:30:19 Minnesota is reliably dimmed, so they don't have anything to worry about. But they're, I think they're doing a sunbelt play. But this, this, I think that Republicans have got to hone their message. They've got to focus on the economy and all
Starting point is 01:30:35 of the inter-party fighting must stop or they will lose. It is theirs to lose. This is not going to be much of a bump for her.

Oh, my gosh, this makes me so mad. A police dog named Vader. This was, this had, it was in, oh my gosh, in Arnold, where I went to high school. There's a canine who was trapped inside of a patrol car as temperatures hit 93 degrees, a 40-year-old dog named Vader. He died, died from heat exhaustion after the car's air conditioning malfunctioned.
Starting point is 01:32:32 It was on last Wednesday, the ACC, system broke as he was trapped inside in where I went to school in Arnold, Missouri. And they said that the handler never received a phone notification and that in Arnold, police cars are equipped with heat sensors. Vader's hander found him, took him to a vet clinic. He showed signs of improvement, but the veterinarian said that there was nothing else they could do. They don't know how long he was inside of his car.
Starting point is 01:32:58 I think maybe you just be responsible and you check your redacted police car for the damn dog that's inside of it. I mean, you're going to sit here and rely on notification on your phone. There's no excuse for that. Shame on you. There's no excuse for that. Come on. Ridiculous.
Starting point is 01:33:16 As many damn times as I got pulled over on Jeffco with my mom who was not speeding. But oh my gosh, for every other thing you're telling me that you cannot sit here and go and check your car to see if you got your police dog inside. Oh, God help me. Moving on. No, I don't have to sit here and pay some homage to have a legitimate criticism on that. And you all know it. Let's see. This U.S. prepares for bird flu pandemic.
Starting point is 01:33:39 Oh, boy, $176 million Moderna vaccine. No, thank you. I'm not even going to do it. Warning over fake QR codes on parking machines. This is something that they've been talking about in Britain and now also in the U.S. But they're saying that sometimes there are these fake QR codes to try to trick people into handing over their car details. You're going to be very careful with that kind of stuff. And another dog ate weed and got high on the beach.

Are you okay with abandoning arts, culture, and music to the radical left? For Pastor Allen Jackson, this one isn't negotiable. I mean, all of our classic music and so much of our classic art has Christian themes. And somewhere along the line, the last hundred years or so, we really stepped away from that. And we've got to come back with courage and boldness.
Starting point is 01:34:35 I'm not willing to relinquish the arts to darkness and evil.

Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. Bottom of this third hour, that's Gwen Walls. Again, Harris Walls sounds like a bad beer garden or a bad law firm. Really not good. I have to, I got to share with you some of the thoughts. This is how, oh my gosh, this is how they're trying to spin it. I am so here for this bite. I am so here for these people to try to take this per-goy. progressive fud and make him out like he is some kind of, you know, they want to make their own hillbilly. That's what they're trying to do with this guy. So they, so apparently over at R.C. Rucler politics, Philip Wegman was like, oh, Republicans are thrilled privately with Tim Walls. Half a dozen GOP officials, operatives have told me that Wals is going to be easily defined as radical leftists. He's been, you know, plagiarizing California's agenda. And then Dem operatives are now going, they're seeing GOP spin and they're texting, quote, good luck trying to brand the small town, a rural gun-owning governor who had an A-plus rating. This is why not all gun organizations are the same.
Starting point is 01:36:57 Who had an A-plus rating until every Republican caved in the face of taking action on postpart. Oh, I'm, okay, I will do this all day. I'll be your Huckleberry. And? seriously they said oh if they we feel good on they they want to make him to be like this small town you know good guy grandpa he's a hillbilly too they got mad that trump had hillbilly elegy on his tickets and they're like oh we got to go find a hillbilly i mean just because the guy looks like boss hog don't mean he is my gosh so that's going to be interesting Didn't, by the way, he, didn't he, I'm going to, hang on, I'm going to need you to play this audio. He had described rural America once as mostly, what did you say, rocks and cows. I'm going to drop this in slack and I'm going to need this.
Starting point is 01:37:58 He literally said it's mostly rocks and cows in that red area. As soon as you have this, guys, just let me know. Red and blue and there's all that red across there and Democrats go into depression over it. it's mostly rocks and cows that are in that red area. Yeah, what a campaigner there. Rocks and cows. Rocks and cows. I mean, I don't even have any words to that.
Starting point is 01:38:28 I don't even have anything smart-ass to say about that on X, King. You see those maps? It's mostly rocks and cows that are in that red area. Man. Okay, almost said something very politically incorrect, and I stopped myself. You know what? we could totally give Steve a stroke right now because he's not there to obsess over the dump button
Starting point is 01:38:51 and Phil's too pure and joyful to like worry about it. So it's just you, Kane, and there's nothing you can do. Thank you. Exercising self-control. I appreciate it. Thank you. For now, I mean, you know,
Starting point is 01:39:07 it's just mostly rocks and cows where we're from, Kane. You know, we're from them rural red areas where it's just all rocks and cows. We don't even got no, running water. It's almost like you wrote a book on it. Yeah, it is, right?
Starting point is 01:39:22 I mean, who boy? I mean, we're sure going to vote for this ton of fun lunchbox. I mean, this is a guy who ran from service. He's like, oh, and runs away, according to literally everybody that served with him that went on the record to say this. And you know, it's funny is the people in that red area of the map, they don't consider socialism all neighborly. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:44 Norther do they consider neighborliness anything like socialism. Exactly. This guy. He said that actually at a fundraiser. It's mostly rocks and cows. Well, it's the mostly peaceful ticket, guys. The mostly peaceful. I love how, I mean, she basically,
Starting point is 01:40:09 she chose a socialist drunk driver. This is what Twitchy says. This headline is everything. And I'm retweeting it, right? The heck now. First off, I have to say, this is one of the most, genius headlines I've ever seen and it's true and it's by Sam over at Twitchy. Kamala Harris chooses socialist drunk driver Tim Walz because she was too scared to select a Jew.
Starting point is 01:40:35 Where's the lie? You know he got a DUI right? So yeah. Who is the guy that looked like Chris Farley but with platinum hair in Canada? He's dead now but his brother still lives. and he was the crazy leader who was on cocaine. Remember him? He was a chunk too, but he looked hysterical, and then he reformed himself and became a conservative before he kicked over. Remember? Something like that.
Starting point is 01:41:02 Yeah, this guy's not even anywhere like that except in size. He's just less fun. He's just like, he's a drunk socialist. I don't, he, that's what he is. He's a drunk socialist. So Tim Walls, that's the other thing. You're going to be learning lots about it. He got a DUI.
Starting point is 01:41:16 He's got, you know, some controversies. He's got a mug shot from 1995. He was speeding up to 96 miles per hour while he was smelling like a liquor bottle. Per the law enforcement report. And he was stopped in September 95. He was going 96 into 55. And they said that, well, the Nebraska State Troopers report said, quote, A strong odor of alcoholic beverage was detected,
Starting point is 01:41:45 emitting from Mr. Walsh's breath in person. He failed to his field sobriety assessment. He failed the breath test. He was taken to Shadron Hospital to undergo blood tests. He was booked into Dawes County Jail. He was charged with the DUI, and then they got the charges reduced to a single kind of reckless driving because of a plea deal. And Waltz's campaign, the campaign manager at the time for his 2006 congressional campaign, they were telling the press that his client's not drunk. I kid you not.
Starting point is 01:42:16 I kid you not. This is the excuse. guys, I'm going to need you all to hold on to something. I brought, hold on to something. Okay. It's like the roller coaster that's going up. They said he wasn't drunk. They said it was because it was a misunderstanding
Starting point is 01:42:30 due to Walsh's deafness. Oh, he's deaf. No, he's not drunk. He's quick. What can I say? Deaf, that's it. He's deaf. Oh, and it's been magically corrected since then,
Starting point is 01:42:43 the deafness. I need a minute. Yeah. he was He blew He failed the breath test Because the deafness Did something to it
Starting point is 01:43:04 I'm not making this up Guys This is literally what was said No no no He wasn't drunk He was deaf He couldn't hear people tell him He had too much
Starting point is 01:43:16 Yeah he couldn't hear people tell him He was drunk Because he's deaf And then all of a sudden It went away It was gone All right he's not magic.
Starting point is 01:43:31 Oh my gosh. Is there alcohol-induced deafness? Yeah, apparently. Yeah, apparently. So I'm just, yeah, his, this is going to be, he was, this is going to be a problem.
Starting point is 01:43:47 It's going to be a problem for him. The cover up is always worse. So the reason it's more of a problem is because of how they've spun it over the years. Like I just told you. No, it's because he was deaf. He didn't understand. he failed both the field sobriety and the breathalyzer because he was deaf.
Starting point is 01:44:07 You try that excuse and you see how it works. With Biden, they tried the stutter thing and they used that for how many years? But yeah, but just smelling like an alcohol bottle, what does it have to? Stumbling around. I mean, you're so drunk, you've got to go to the hospital. So you have inner ear issues. I have inner ear issues. That's not how that works.
Starting point is 01:44:30 Is that the stumbling? I literally have you station tube issues. That is not how that works. I'm calling shenanigans. And he's wobbling and stuff. No, it's not like that. And it doesn't make alcohol just come out of you. What in the world?
Starting point is 01:44:46 So he's a drunk socialist who dodged duty. So compare Trump taking a bullet. And Tim Walts running away from serving. Jeez. Just one person. Compare J.D. Vancey who served his country admirably. to that drunk socialist who was magically who was deaf and now isn't who you know dodged his duty oh my gosh this just keeps getting better and better i swear it's like a damn south park episode he's cartman
Starting point is 01:45:20 except cartman i think would have showed up to serve i'm just saying so yeah that's um yeah oh and by the way it gets worse oh it does do you know why he was speeding the drunk socialist? Because he thought, and he turned out to be mistaken, but he thought someone was chasing him. So, okay, there you go. Yeah. And then when he saw the trooper, he didn't want to pull over right away because he said that he didn't know what they were doing, even though they had the red lights. But okay, you know, whatever. I mean, this guy will not accept responsibility, does not accept accountability.
Starting point is 01:46:12 So, yeah, this is, the ads are going to make themselves. But Trump and J.D. Vance are weird? Yeah, Trump and J.D. Vance are weird. You got this drunk socialist and his wife, Gwen, who loves smelling everybody's businesses burn. You can't make this up. Thank you, Kamala Harris, for picking Tim Walz, because you literally made my show content now till November.
Starting point is 01:46:36 Oh, my, guys, I haven't even gotten to the top of it. We're still, I have more, but we're running out of time just for today. But I got lots more, including how the daughter was coordinating with the rioters to tell them to keep on burning stuff because the National Guard ain't coming out because her daddy ain't calling out National Guard. He's probably drunk somewhere in a field, you know, being deaf, I mean, sorry, he's probably fell down deaf. Can't say falling down drunk anymore.
Starting point is 01:47:03 I bet deaf people are like, what is the matter with you? What? Like, who does it? Who says this stuff? Oh my gosh. Oh, and my favorite, Kane is going to be whenever you point this stuff out, the left is going to turn themselves into pretzels defending it.
Starting point is 01:47:20 Right. I mean, oh, what did he say? Like someone else's socialism or someone else's neighbor, what did he say? One person's socialism is another man's neighborliness. He did say it and won. You go and play it. But we can get out there.
Starting point is 01:47:39 Reach out. Make the case. And for one thing, Don't ever shy away from our progressive values. One person's socialism is another person's neighborliness. What? Who? I mean, you know, it's a beautiful day in the neighborhood.
Starting point is 01:47:56 It's a beautiful day for the neighbor. Is your paycheck mine? Could it be mine? Just saying. Just saying. Man, between him and Gwen here. You did a bang-up job there, Com. You did a bang-up job.
Starting point is 01:48:10 All right, we got more on the way. chimney. I didn't even get, by the way, there's the television anchor. I didn't even get to that yet. I meant to say that for tomorrow, the television anchor who was criticizing him for the way that they were handling the right. Oh my gosh, we're going to have to say that because we're running out of time. Guys, there's so much, so much here with Tim Walls. They really did us a service with that drunk socialist. All right. As we move, our partners that help bring you free radio, it's Patriot Mobile. Look, if you haven't switched to Patriot Mobile, and depending on what cell phone service you have, you're just putting money in the pocket of that chunky drunk socialist up there from Minnesota. I'm sorry, deaf, who it went away magically after the DUI was reduced down. The folks over at Keltec, the P15, if you don't have it, you should.
Starting point is 01:48:52 Why don't you have it? I mean, ask yourself that. Every time somebody talks about gun control, I kind of want to go out and get a new gun. And you can do the same thing. And if you don't have the P15, look, I just gave you justification. So you can be like, no, I need it because, you know, I'm fighting gun control.

Starting point is 01:50:29 Republicans have so much material for an ad. It's crazy. There's, there's so much material. I just tweeted out too, or posted on X, tweeted out, X out, I don't know. I my friend Kurt Schlichter asked this too how does a guy
Starting point is 01:50:48 who got arrested for a DUI get to be a command sergeant major and my friend Kurtz a retired colonel how do you how does he get to be
Starting point is 01:51:00 a command sergeant major with a DUI he says a junior enlisted guy would have been crushed that's a million dollar question I don't actually know but it just is amazing to me that they try to spin it like oh well you know it's because he was
Starting point is 01:51:21 deaf and he thought that the trooper was chasing him that's yeah he was you dumbass because you were going 96 and a 55 and you were drunk as a skunk what did you well i can't believe that guy's chasing me he's got lots of baloney's car oh wait no he's a pretend hillbilly he ain't even real I don't know. I'm telling you, it's Hillbilly Elegy versus Hillbilly envy, I think. We got today in stupidity, Kane. I'm going to stop myself. Otherwise, I'm going to take all your time off. Thank you. But this one is Pelosi this time. I thought it'd be like Joe or Kamala today.
