You know, last question. Obviously, it gets sharp in the final days. Do you ever see yourself in a Trump administration if it were to come to that? Or is that something you've absolutely closed the door on? Martha, I'm running to win this race. And as much as everybody wants to talk about what I'm going to do, at some point, y'all are going to realize that I won this race. And you're going to have to accept when I say, I told you so. It is slow and so.

He wins the race. I've done this the entire time. we're going to finish it. I don't want anything else. I don't want anything else. I'm running to be president. Hmm. Is she though? I mean, this is like one of those things where it's like, we'll see. We'll see if she is because everything changes. Everybody says this stuff until it's time to make the announcement as to whether or not they're actually, who's going to be on the ticket. There's so much. It's all cloak and dagger, isn't it? Welcome to the show. Dana Lash here. A lot of stuff to discuss today. tomorrow we're going to be at shot show and a lot of stuff to touch on there too because you know you got lawmakers that come in there and you got policymakers and you know other you know people that work and film and all that stuff and I'll give you a preview of that coming up but today is the New Hampshire primary welcome to the program Dana Lash with you you can listen coast to coast you can stream the radio program as well on YouTube Facebook channel 347 direct TV so New Hampshire this is

where it's going to be a real test. And I think this is ultimately going to decide if Nikki Haley goes on to her home state. And it's not enough to come in just a plain second. It's just not enough to come in a plain second. It really isn't. You're going, I mean, she's going to have to get within a competitive striking distance just to make it to South Carolina. I mean, this is to say nothing of, you know, going on to, you know, Super Tuesday. Goodness. I mean, it's just, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, and so, and so, one of the differences between New Hampshire and Iowa, Iowa is more, just so you have an understanding of it. Iowa is more representative of the hard core Republican base, whereas,

as you know, as you have New Hampshire, which is, there's a lot more independence in New Hampshire. I was actually looking at some of the registrated. There are a lot of independence in New Hampshire. That's very interesting. It also is more favorable for Haley because she's pulling more independence than Trump. Trump is hurting with independence. This is the way it is. So now whether that's going to actually allow her to get, you know, whether that actually brings it up to where she's not going to, I don't, I don't see her taking new.

Hampshire. I just don't. But I do see her maybe becoming a little bit, like I said, maybe more competitive going in towards South Carolina. It's just a real, it's a wait and see. You also like, what did you have, Dixville Notches, pull this up. That's the town that always comes in first, because they have like five people that live there. God love them. And they said that it was, she got six votes in Little Bitty Dickville Notch. They're always the little town that always cast the first vote. It's always minutes after midnight on Tuesday morning. And they, and all of the electorate, six of the town's electorate. It's not necessarily a measure. It's just something fun to kind of point out. But

they are going into, I mean, we'll get, I think what, polls start closing at seven, so we'll get results. I would imagine we're going to get it pretty early and we're going to have an idea pretty early on. But this New Hampshire primary, now that you have the shakeup, DeSantis out, it's between Trump and Haley. You got another dude up there. this I think a lot of DeSantis voters are going with Trump because it was and I think this was the Trump camp that erode that that falsely was putting this out there people who were going for DeSantis were not not Trump voters and again it's a primary you're talking about people who voted for Trump twice already and it's so unfair and absolutely back asswords to say that

they were never Trump because they voted for him twice and they just had a different primary trust. I mean, so primaries are four. I mean, it's the whole point of them. But here's what's interesting. And kind of to my point on that, the voters that DeSantis has, they're going to Trump. They're not going to Haley. Whereas a lot of the Vivek and some of the

other folks, the independents who are kind of they're leaning, they're going towards Nikki Haley. She's getting the independence and she's getting a lot of the left. Now, before, and here's where it gets even trickier. Don't immediately discount. And yes, there is an operation chaos. There is Democrats with

love it. I think they've already been doing this with the media. I think they need to do it less with the voters, but they would absolutely love to be able to influence the choice that Republicans have going into the primary and then the nomination. And so to that point, you had a lot of, because Iowa, you could just show up the same day and register. So you had a lot of Democrats that showed up and they maybe perhaps registered as Republicans. And then they went and they tried to choose Haley to make her more competitive, to come in a more competitive third place. In New Hampshire, you can't do same day like that. You have to do an advance. But still, there are a lot of independents there who left the Democrat side. And maybe they're, you know, registering. They're

going to lean, they're going to lean Haley. That said, don't discount the Democrats that are genuine that register and want to make a different choice. Because it is true to the point. of Reagan winning his election, his first election, he did so with Reagan Democrats. That's where the whole phrase Reagan Democrats comes from. So there is a little bit of weight there. Now, whether or not it's actual Reagan 2.0 Democrats that are going for Haley or whether it's Democrats that would like to disrupt the primary that remains to be seen. But the independence, and there's a lot of independence more so in New Hampshire than there are in Iowa, those are the ones that we're going to be really, really making this choice. And so it's going to whether, if she makes it to South Carolina,

I just don't see, like I said, I don't see her going beyond that. But again, delegate race, and it's a race to see who can stay in and get the, and with the most money the longest. So, so she has kicking off the big primary day and we'll get those results. And I'm going to cover all of those. I'm going to be traveling to, but I'm going to be doing, I'll be covering it over at substack, over at chapter and verse. So if you want to subscribe, now is a good time to do so. Because I always give you a lay of the land going into South Carolina. And then afterwards, we got a Super Tuesday coming up.

So, oh, they have that Democrat Dean Phillips. He's on the ballot. I forgot about him. He's up there on the ballot. He's, and they're doing a last minute writing campaign for Joe Biden. Because remember, Biden isn't on the New Hampshire ballot. he's not on the he's just not on the ballot uh he's uh they've had it's a long the dnc they were at the very beginning again you had a lot of dependents without a party affiliation they were selecting joe

biden's name isn't on the new hampshire ballot so they started doing a write-in campaign for him he's always every single time joe biden has run for president he's performed so horribly new hamps every time he he is just he just performs poorly in new hampshire And remember when he was going into the South Carolina primary, he was just dying after Iowa, after New Hampshire. And it was James Clyburn that went in to save him. So he's never, and it's weird, he's just never done well there. So they had this, they had this guy, they had what I think, what in 2020, the Democrat voters were backing Bloomberg. But then they ended up supporting Biden.

but his name in his, they had a dispute between the, a fight between the DNC and Democrats in South Carolina because they wanted to move the first approved Democrat primary to South Carolina. And so that's why his name's not on the ballot because they were having a dispute over it. So they have this representative named Dean Phillips, who's a Democrat and his name's on the ballot. So it's, and he actually saw a news interview with him. So that'll be how he could. I mean, I was just saying he could technically win that primary, the Democrat primary. And then, you know, that would be a very embarrassing narrative for the Biden campaign. So I don't know.

I'm just going to sit back and kind of watch that one unfold. But yeah, Biden got in 2020, I think Biden got the five votes out of Dixville notch, something like that. So we're going to see it's, it'll be weird. I mean, it's going to be, we're going to see how this, how this happens. happens how this unfolds today. So now the other big news that were following that I was tweeting about last night, the Supreme Court, this is immigration, the Supreme Court has ruled, you know, the razor wire that was in Texas, right? The whole razor wire, the fencing down there. So the Supreme Court is ruled against Texas on the razor wire. There's a lot of weeping and gnashing

of the teeth over this, understandably so, because there's a lot of questions as to why Amy Coney Barrett. And it was John Roberts and Barrett that ended up, going against the other conservative justices on on this whole issue. And so this ruling, and this has been a back and forth with Operation Loan Star, which was conceived and implemented in March 2021. And the governor realized, oh my gosh, as soon as Biden's inaugurated, everything that was, you know, working previously to help reduce, you know, the mass numbers that we saw at the border. That's going to go away. So the Operation Loan Star is taxpayer funded by the Texas legislature. The, we, you know, Texans here in the state, we would like for the border to be secure.

And so now the National Guard, they put up razor wire in certain more shallow parts of the Rio and certain popular crossings there as a deterrent. And that's when you had the feds going back and forth over it. Biden DOJ is fighting it. They were the ones who previously had cut razor wire, the feds and were lifting it up. That's where that infamous video that Bill Malugian got, where you had all of these people that were literally just, you know, walking across the shallow part of the Rio, climbing up on the bank in Texas. And border patrol, the feds were holding up the fence and allowing these people. And you literally can see the cartel coyotes right on the other side, on the Mexico side. You can see the cartel members watching as our federal government assists them in their human trafficking operation, which nets them about $35 to $39 million a week on a popular 245 miles stretch of the border down there. insane. So Eagle Pass has been the staging area. They had the Shelby Park fight, and that's when the governor took control of Shelby Park, and they put up the fencing, and they put the feds out and the media, and the Biden DOJ was immediately trying to make up stories about drowning illegal

immigrants in the Rio to go with them over that. And so now we have the Supreme Court. That was the question before the Supreme Court was whether or not, you know, the Texas National Guard as a part of a takeover of that area. They're not giving Border Patrol access, and they can put up razor wire so that people can't, as a deterrent, so to not have people make it through and get up on the bank in Texas.

And so the Supreme Court, the ruling is a 5-4 vote. It struck down a lower court ruling that was blocking Border Patrol from cutting or moving or removing or removing altogether that state-owned razor wire. And they said that the previous exception to that,

there was one exception before the Supreme Court ruling, and that was if there was an emergency issue involving illegal immigrants and border patrol had to provide assistance. So you had Chief Justice John Roberts and you had Amy Coney Barrett. They sided with the progressives on the Supreme Court and handed Biden a win. And that's insane to me. And this is, you know, this is after one of the, and remember that discredited story that we were talking about that I was so upset about last week. Well, this is one of the reasons why I was upset about it. Don't think for a second that this false narrative isn't used to influenced decisions because it is. So that's, uh, Paxton responded. He said this isn't over. He said

it's a temporary ruling. Abbott said the same thing. And even before the ruling came out, Abbott was already putting up more fencing. I had tweeted that out yesterday. And so this, it's going to be a back and forth fight. He said nothing's changing. He said that Texas is going to fight it. And, uh, this is where we are. But what's amazing to me is that you have the Supreme court, especially with some of these other decisions. They, they actually will, will determine that it's justifiable or somehow legally acceptable for the government to lock you down and the government to keep you in your house and the government to enforce quarantine. But this, this at the southern border is okay. If you want the best tasting coffee brewed by vets, a veteran-owned company,

So I don't know if you heard, but Pondstar's star, Rick Harrison, lost his son. He's so horrible.

His son, 39 years old, Adam died from a fentanyl overdose. He confirmed in his statement to the New York Post, quote, yes, I can confirm Adam died from fentanyl. He also mentioned the fentanyl crisis in this country. The family lives in Vegas, and it's just sad, and we're thinking of the Harrison family today. Just awful. Putin, stoking tension with the U.S. He says that the he's such a troll. He says the 1867 sale of Alaska was illegal. Yeah, you know, too bad. So sad, dude, it's done. So he's now, I mean, it's a troll.

He's purposefully trolling. That's what this is. The birth rate is plunging because millennials are deciding again. against being parents. Yeah. So the birth rate, not doing so good. Millennials are saying that less than a fifth of them, specifically those between 26 and 35, they're certain that they want to become parents, but they're also, they say that environmental concerns, actually some, like literally one study that was conducted by the University of Southampton, this is in the UK. They sampled 7,000 individuals ranging from 18 to 59. So they were looking at millennials, 19% of millennials. And

said they wanted to have kids, 30% leaned towards maybe wanting them. Older ones, 36 and 41. How are you 41 in a millennial? They said that they are certainly, will not have kids. And one of the reasons they said was climate change. I can't even make this up. This is so weird. I feel like this, there's, ugh.

All right, so a huge data leak. It's been named the mother of all breaches, sees 26 million records leaked from sites, including Twitter, LinkedIn, and Dropbox. and 26 billion personal records. Researchers say it's the biggest ever data leak. And they said that it's dangerous. It could prompt a tsunami of cybercrime.

There's, I mean, all kinds of stuff. Of course, you know, Tencent, they had the worst. It was $1.5 billion. Tencent's a CCP-owned company. Everything from Evite, all of this stuff, Adobe. They said that you can use Cyber News's data leak checker and enter your email address or, phone number and then put check now to see whether or not your information has been leaked.

Cyber News is data leak checkers. So that's how you do it. Also, let's see here. Groundbreaking Alzheimer's test can spot the disease 15 years before symptoms emerge and a huge breakthrough.

best highlights from every show and dana's absurd truth podcast posted daily from the dana show it's about the agenda and it's about what the american people have seen donald trump has done this job laura we've talked about that many many times and nicky haley does represent the old guard in the old way in the republican party that's how she came up that's how she governed in south Carolina. The voters in our country, Republican voters in our country do not want that. They are tired of business. This is Byron Donald's out of Florida. It is true. And I play this because I have a lot of people who I think are not a lot. I got, I want to see how many did it. I want to be accurate. Dana, I'll share with you why I look this up. And again, welcome back to the program.

I mean, it wasn't a lot in the grand scheme of things. This is maybe like 18 or 19 emails. I mean, normally when I get a lot of feedback, it's a lot more. that but it was enough to wear and they were like legitimate people and they were you know they're legitimate listeners and you know all this and they were saying well you know Dana I remember you know she came up Nikki Haley came up during the tea party well yeah but that doesn't mean she stayed within that spirit and I also think too there were a lot of very clever politicians that came up you know during that time and they sort of kind of hid their true colors quite well or they morphed over time.

And, you know, it could be a good thing or a bad thing. I've always said, too, that movements and that includes the Tea Party. And I've said this, and I say this is one of the founding members of it. A movement that lasts too long becomes a grift. At some point, you have to have some sort of, you got to move into some kind of action phase. And the Tea Party did. And you would never have Donald Trump without the Tea Party. You really, you would not have.

You absolutely would not have. It's one of the reasons why his campaign, when he first appeared at CPAC, asked me, me to introduce him. So Haley may have come up in the Tea Party, but in terms of, you know, her prominence is governor, but she didn't stay Tea Party. You know, she did a lot of, I mean, if you look at her record as governor, there were a lot of moderate moves. And even now, a lot of her positions when she lists them, because they're not exactly like super easy to find on her website, are pretty moderate. And the way that she has run from cultural issues, this is another thing that I find such a worrisome issue.

And it worries me with the Trump campaign too. And we'll talk about that in a moment. But her position with China, I noted the last debate. She was saying that she was proud to have developed these trade relations with China. And I actually said on Twitter, I can't believe that's an actual sentence that she just said in the debate because it went far beyond that. I mean, you have trade relations and then you have what she was doing, which was selling actual land outright to the CCP, which is, you know, you should, you should, you should, be doing that. And so there's, she's got a lot of, you know, moderate and she constantly plays identity politics, which as you know, I hate with the burning passion of a thousand sons. I just, I, I, I can't

stand constantly being, I mean, we see you. We know you're a chick. You don't constantly have to be reminded. We know that, that you are, your family hills from India. We know this. We don't have to constantly be reminded. For voters that you're, that she's trying to reach, they don't care. only the left cares about that stuff. So when I hear candidates saying that, I'm like, who are you trying to impress here? So that just bugs me. Whenever I hear candidates do that,

especially if they're chicks, I immediately, I just, I wince. But what Donald's is saying that she represents the old guard, I do think, too, that there are some people, let's be fair, there are people in the Trump camp that are old guard.

I mean, he's an incumbent. I mean, by very nature, he can, you're not an outsider anymore by very nature of being an incumbent. But he's got some people that were in his cabinet and that worked with him that were absolutely old guarding for crying out loud the tax plan that gave temporary tax cuts, which one of my biggest complaints besides the gun stuff during his tenure was that they weren't made permanent. Loved him when they happened. They were brilliant. I'm like, oh, please, for the love of all things holy, make these permanent.

That was a Paul Ryan plan. The amnesty plan that they were working on, 1.8, they were going to increase the number of H-1Bs. I think it was only by 20,000. That was also a Paul Ryan thing. there were a couple of Mitch McConnell. I mean, so there's an element of old guard there as well. However, the difference is that the current, the old guard right now is definitely, I mean, the, the establishment as you might define it by faces, whether it's the bushes and the roves, et cetera. And I'm just using them as avatars.

They, that they are supportive of her. Now, I think the media wants Trump. I think that Haley is, and I don't like Haley, and I don't like saying this. But the reason I bring it out is because maybe somebody in the Trump camp will do something about him hemorrhaging moderates and independence, because that's got to stop. She's more competitive with Biden than he is, only just by some of the latest polling. And I want you to watch. They're going to start shifting the national polling now. I'm already seeing it.

Let me pull this up. I started seeing this with a Politico piece that ran, uh, early this morning. And the Politico piece says this. And this is like one of the big first times that they're really, they're really starting to hit this. It says Donald Trump has a big problem. I had a whole swath of GOP voters appear firmly committed to not voting. I don't think that's true. But one of the things they do touch on in this piece is independence. Now, he struggled with independence in 2018, 2020 and 2022. Republicans did as a whole and him. And some of these special elections where it mattered, it hurt us. You got to remedy that. You want to win, you got to remedy it.

It does you no good to make up stories to help yourself fall asleep better at night about your candidate that only contributes to you losing everything for the nation in November. If you want to win, you have to admit these truths that are indisputable and you have to fix them. People who are serious about winning and putting America first will be honest, admit them and fix them. People who want to blow smoke up the ass of the voters and grift will lie and then get mad at all the other people who speak honestly about these these absolute god honest truths the end so this said we got to do something about the independent moderate thing and that does not mean running to the center it does not mean denying your record on abortion it does not mean going soft on immigration it just means

being more committed and smarter with your messaging case and point i always use this because this is the big issue that, well, it's the issue that they started with going after abortion. Going after, uh, the Wisconsin, uh, court elections, then you had Virginia. Democrats really were pushing abortion because Democrats still think that women are stupid. You see, it's like when a woman goes, it's like this little trope of when a woman or a man goes and buys a car. Well, the guy gets told everything about the horsepower, the engine, all this other stuff. And the woman gets told about the, the lighted cosmetic mirror in the, uh, and the visor. and then the cup holders.

That's how Democrats treat women when it comes to policy. You know, women are just as much interested in economic policy, where as is much interested in trade policy. We are as as much interested in foreign policy. We are as as much interested in all of these other things. But yet what is the issue that Democrats consistently push first and foremost? Abortion. Everything is about abortion.

Why don't they just go ahead and tell us about the? cup holders. It's so stupid. It's so unbelievably patronizing and sexist. And yet all of these grifting, stupid, flippity feminists don't pick up on it. They are bought and sold into it. Nobody talks to them about, well, let's talk about quantitative easing. Let's discuss, you know, how, you know, the Fed and let's discuss, you know, the issue with trade and tariffs, et cetera, et cetera. No, no, no, it's all abortion. That's what it is. Every time. abortion. So that's what they started with. They made their attack out. I played it yesterday. And that's what they're trying because Republicans outside of Florida have no idea how to talk about it.

And the right loves shooting itself in the foot. Oh, they love it. The right is so stupid on strategy. Sometimes I could scream and pull my hair out in yours too. It's infuriating. In Florida, this is what they did. Because they had, I mean, they signed a 15-week ban. And this is how they accurately and very forthright without using any of the trappings of political narrative massaging, they just outright said exactly what it was. This is what you're talking about going on the heels of the bill that was in the Senate, co-sponsored by every Democrat in the Senate. What they presented it as was taxpayer-funded abortion on demand up till the moment of birth. And that's exactly what that bill was, by the way. I am not exaggerating. I read the damn thing. It is exactly that verbatim.

And they accurately, they message this. Do you want to be paying for abortion as a form of birth control for someone else's sexual recreation up until the moment of birth? This is what's happening. This is what we're moving to. How long does it take a woman to decide whether or not she wants to keep her baby? And then they think that women are stupid and that other women who haven't had babies or men, they think that they're all dumb enough to say, oh, well, you know, they have to be able to have access. They have to women go to OBGYNs. They go and see their obstetricians.

they're not like sitting around waiting until the eighth month of pregnancy. I guess they better just go into Planned Parenthood. According to Planned Parenthood's own statistics, the majority of women who are getting abortions are older middle class women that have more than one child already. Or they have a child already. It is a form of birth control. And that's where they make all their fat bank.

That's why Planned Parenthood opposed birth control over the counter too, by the way, because they wanted to be the ultimate control over that. They fought Republicans tooth and nail two times over that. Democrats helped them because Democrats get all their money from Planned Parenthood. We give taxpayer dollars to Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood then turns around a donate to Democrats, a lot we are donating to Democrats through our taxpayer dollars. Yay, taxes, blank the IRS.

A. So this is the reality of it. This is what Democrats are pushing. Abortion. Trump already tried to maneuver to the middle on this. He needs to embrace and get really smart. He needs to get smarter people to help message him. He's got to get better people on this.

He's the Roe v. Wade president. He was in office with Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health. How are you not claiming that as a win? Why are you trying to run from that? I don't care how hardcore pro-life you are. If you are for limited government, then you should be like, all right, ladies, if you're not going to keep your knees kissing,

then you better assume responsibility for the consequences of what may happen. it's not our responsibility to pay for y'all's stuff that's not empowered woman that's just a glorified form of prostitution going to your pimp daddy uncle sam can you help pay for my abortion they've got to get better at messaging this and they should look if they weren't so terrified of saying well florida did a good job because they're afraid it might leak over into some kind of compliment for desantis they should just totally copy and paste that and steal it outright and do it. That's the messaging to have because you know what?

It didn't hurt Republicans in Florida. Democrats were voting for Republicans in Florida. Y'all, they took Miami Beach. They took Miami. They took Miami-Dade. They took Palm Beach County. These are two counties that have never gone Republican before. And they took them.

There were Democrats, lifelong Democrats voting for Republicans. In Florida, a swing state that is now no longer a swing state. Maybe take a clue. that's how the party should be messaging about this nationwide. That is a swing state. They're not a super conservative state. I'm so tired of everyone like, well, Florida is not like New York. Look, a lot of New Yorkers went there.

It's a swing state. Copy and paste. He needs to not run to the middle because when you water down conservatism at the ballot, it doesn't move. People won't vote for it. Every single election, this has happened every single time. That is the number one thing. people need to hold the line on. Even if you're one of those people who have migrated over to the Republican Party because Democrats are so bad and you don't necessarily, you're like maybe you're one

of those people who don't totally adopt the whole hardcore pro-life message. At the very least, you should recognize. And again, I read the bill. I linked it on my substack. I highlighted and screenshot it portions of the bill for those people who didn't want to read through the whole PDF. That's literally what it was doing. That's what they want to move towards. That's not something that taxpayers, particularly during a time of superinflation, should be subsidizing on top of paying off everyone's student loans and everything else. That's a message that works. That's what they need to do and not run to the middle. That's how you help stave off losing those independence.

So you have the media. I'm warning you they're going to start changing national polling. The headlines are going to start changing. I've already seen it. I've already seen one poll that's been changed and I've already seen the narrative start to shift. I'm warning you now they better be ready I don't know what is the RNC doing

You very careful with that, considering those articles that came out. Get out of here. He was huckling her. Hmm. Yeah. Oh, welcome back to the program. Dan Lash here with you. Always, always good to be with you. So this, yeah, they're campaigning in New Hampshire. There it's getting going. They had, what, I think everything closes at seven. And we'll have, I'll be on social media and I'll also have stuff up at Substack chapter and verse. So I'll have that up there for you too. So you'll be able to, you'll be able to check.

it out and we'll have the course of recap live coverage and what it means as well going into South Carolina she's got to she has to be super competitive or it's not going to happen not going to happen will not happen for her it just it's not it's just it's just it's just it's just not uh it won't be a realistic thing she's got to be it it's not enough to just be like in second place you've got to be super competitive and she's got to take it's a it within 10 points or less, I think, anyway. So we're going to get, you know, we're going to, we'll cover all of that good stuff as we barrel towards the conclusion of that. Now, coming up in our second hour, there is, it looks like a fight over legal bills, the former president's legal bills in Florida.

They are withdrawing the bill, but it was pushed out there. Politico updated the report late last night saying that they were going to withdraw this bill because there was a bill that a Florida Republican had introduced to use taxpayer money to help pay for former President Trump's multiple legal battles. It was state Senator Leanna Garcia. She filed a bill for the legislative session that would allow the state to hand up to $5 million of taxpayer money for his legal bills. Now his pack, it's the Save America pack. They've paid about, I mean, we're getting up to about $40 million in legal fees. His Save America pack is, that's what's paying his legal fees. So I'm just like, is it needed to use taxpayer dollars for that? And I don't

know why a Republican would consider something like that, but that's, that's what a Republican it did. So we're going to get in, we'll get into some of that. We also have, we got a whole bunch of stuff coming up. New Hampshire. energy, all kinds. Stick with us. Our partners over at Nimi's skincare, New Year, New You. You want to get skincare.

Why do you think we are? Well, you guys sued to cut razor wire that was put in place by Texas officials. So that the Border Patrol could actually do their jobs, But keep going. Well, you want in court. So now what? The Border Patrol union president is saying the Supreme Court's decision is going to undoubtedly encourage more illegal immigration.

Do you guys know better than the Border Patrol union? The Border Patrol needed access, and that's why we sued to get rid of that razor wire, so that they could do their jobs. And you know what would also help them do their jobs, Peter? More Border Patrol agents. There's an idea. And if you go back to the supplemental request that we put in, there's money in there for some 1,300 additional Border Patrol agents. We want to help them do their jobs. We want to give them more resources.

And the answer we kept keep getting back from House Republicans is no, no, no. No, that's absolutely not true either, because that's not all with the bill included. Welcome back to the program. Dana last year with you, top of the second hour. That's not all. It included, by the way. That's not all at all. The CBO was saying that he was using the parole loophole, too. that Biden was to release, like, somehow like 6.2 or somehow million illegal aliens into the U.S.

And no, there's going to be no recourse on that. There was going to, there's like no recourse on a whole bunch of issues for him. So, yeah, I, and in addition to that, the funding, they were reducing the funding. It was a, it was a drop in the bucket. And they also wanted to send money to Ukraine and spend all this other stuff that had nothing to do with border security. None of it. Welcome back. You can listen coast to coast. You can stream the radio program. You can also find, join the discussion over at YouTube. Find us YouTube, Facebook, Channel 347, direct TV. The CBO issued a report talking about this whole thing as well, just the number of people that have been coming in and the godaways because, you know, that was one of the reasons why Texas wanted to have this fence and the razor wire and the floating barrier in the Rio. a force multiplier as a deterrent. You had in 2023, 900,000 illegal entrants that were released,

according to the CBO, after they walked up, walked up to a border gate and they were released. Then you had 1.1 million illegal entrants that were released after they crossed through the gaps in the border wall. Half of them were led into the country by October 1st of last year. And Biden used the parole loophole loophole in the border law. And now they were one of the other things that they were tacking on to that bill. They wanted to expand the doorway for that parole. Now, the inflow included about their estimating 860,000 godaways who sneaked past the lightly guarded wall, and then 430,000 people who remained in the U.S. after their visas had expired. And the CBO data does not include the hundreds of thousands released since October 1st of 23.

So just in three years, that's about 6.2 million illegal immigrants. That doesn't include the 1.7 million known gotaways. I mean, it could be up to 9 million. That's the number. That is the number. So when they talk about the border financing, etc., that was just like a drop in the bucket. It really was just a drop in the bucket. They, it's, it's, it's pathetic, really. And to have the Supreme Court fight, and this is the other big thing here, because we had the Supreme Court decision where you had Chief Justice Roberts and then you had Amy Coney Barrett who voted with the progressive justices against Texas having the razor wire at the border. and there's a lot of, a lot of criticism of Coney Barrett because she apparently thinks that it's okay,

you know, if you have a state that can lock down people, but not okay if you have people who are, who are illegally entering the country, and there's what, there's apparently no recourse for this. So you had three progressives, Ann Roberts and Barrett. And that was the decision in a 5-4 vote, striking down the lower court ruling that blocked border patrol from cutting or moving the state-owned razor wire. Now, they've been, the DOJ has been just waging war, particularly on Texas and Texas Governor Greg Abbott and the AG Ken Paxton. Because they're mad that the governor and the elected officials in the state of Texas are

protecting Texans. So they're going to respond to this. Paxton noted that this ruling from SCOTUS, this is a temporary ruling, which is true, but it is incredibly troubling that it even, I mean, that we're here at all. However, I do remember, you know, when all of this was happening with the Supreme Court, there were people who were saying that Barrett was just very, you know, I wasn't, for the other choices to consider, she seemed the most concerned. She seemed the most concerned. served of one and I liked her ruling as it pertained to white collar criminals and firearms. So, you know, that was one area where I agreed with her on. But now in looking at this, and especially, there's a lot of discussion as to what motivated her for this. I mean, Roberts is,

you know, he's a moderate at best. But she had supported the Illinois lockdown on the Seventh Circuit. And this is something that's important to note. I wanted to go back to this. piece. This is a political piece that ran a couple of years ago. This was a 2020 piece. And it gets into how when she was on the Seventh Circuit, the court had turned down the Illinois Republican Party's bid to block a coronavirus-related lockdown order that was limiting political gatherings to no more than 50 people. It was the three-judge panel that included, yeah, I know, it was two, it would include a Barrett. Trump appointees, progressive, and they were trying to get a preliminary injunction against the enforcement of this order that Pritzker had issued. And they were saying that his decision to exempt churches and other religious organizations underbind his ability to leave that limit in place against political assemblies because it's a free speech issue, which I agree with.

So you have the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals held the exemption for religion. Pritzker issued under legal. There was a lot of religious groups that got involved. and they were saying that the Supreme Court precedent doesn't compel the governor to treat all gatherings alike. Wow. And they said that the enforcement was being handled

at the local level, not by the state. And that's, so, that's a, I mean, she had her, she supported the Illinois lockdown. So she thinks that the state can lock down its citizens and the state of Illinois can demand, and that they inject themselves with experimental solutions,

but they can't stop an invasion at the southern border. Hmm. Interesting. Now, I'm telling you, the Supreme Court, it could get worse. You got Democrats winning. Guess what? They'll pack it. Imagine the decisions that'll come out there.

We've got some Second Amendment stuff that'll be coming up before Supreme Court. I mean, there was, they had. had what I was looking at. There was a great piece, in fact, a couple of great pieces that were looking at examining some of these past decisions and then comparing them to the reasoning now. There was my friend Daniel Horowitz had a piece where he was specifically looking at whether it was Bostock, whether it was blocking a Florida appeal during this whole time. It's not as conservative as you think. And I just, that's where I do depart. I don't, I, how is it, there's no, there's no, a free speech issue.

That's not something that is relegated to the states. That is a natural right that's affirmed by the constitution and that doesn't mean that the states can over, the states then have the authority to somehow limit your natural right. That's not what that means. But that's, I think you have to adopt that perspective in order to get to this position with her ruling. It just doesn't make any sense. So this is, this is the fight. So we'll see how this goes. It's a temporary ruling. Texas is still fighting it. wanted to play for you this audio. Kamala Harris was,

I'll pull this up because this came out just a little bit ago. She was giving you an interview. Is this something, she was on the view. She was saying that she talks to parents on the campaign trail, and this is their top concern about their daughters. Listen to this audio. What they are telling me in state after state is that they are concerned about the future of our country. many of us often think about the future of our country in the context of our children.

And so they talk about their concern that if their daughter is going to college, will she go to a state where she will have access to the health care she might need, including reproductive health? So are you basing your college decision on academics or where you can go and get services for recreational activities? they make women sound like, you know, rabid rabbits that can't control themselves. Oh, I guess we better find a university where we can go and get those abortions, ladies. I mean, it should be about academics. I mean, what a way to just, you know,

to stereotype and go along with the caricature that the third-wave feminist and the patriarchy, which are the same thing, that they have portrayed women as. Just it's, it's anisone. Maybe, I don't know, study and don't hold up. Maybe do that. Good grief.

This isn't difficult. You know how many people, how many women go through college and they don't have to worry about, well, I should go where I can get abortions. What are you doing in college? You're supposed to be studying. You're supposed to be getting that degree, making those grades. This is what's wrong with people. It's also why aliens don't visit us. If you're making that decision, you got some serious things going on. There's something else wrong. There's something wrong with you. That's your main concern. But you see what I'm saying? This is what Democrats do. They sell women on the lowest common denominator. Before I,

pay for tuition. Am I going to be able to kill my baby there? I mean, good grief. If that's a parent's top concern, you raised, you raised a skank. Male or female, you raised a skank. If that is your top concern as a parent, you failed your job as a parent.

You did, and you need to, you need to own up to it. It's not everybody else's job, because you couldn't raise a son or daughter who knows how to control their libido. That's ridiculous. I mean, animals can control their libido in the wild. They they know how to act when it best serves them and when it doesn't. I mean, be better than an

animal in the wild at least. Good grief. I just, that's an embarrassing answer. For anybody else that had, you know, for any people who have awareness, they just kind of cringe at these kind of answers. It's just, it's, yeah. All right. So we have quick five on the way. We also have Florida Man as we barrel towards the bottom of this hour and some of the other stuff that we have coming up. So all the people, this is kind of, well, this is bad for the pro Hamas folks, because Hamas has rejected not only ceasefire now, but again, the two-state solution, very publicly, again. So where does that leave all the people who've been calling for ceasefire now and two-state solution?

Where does that leave them? I just, I've got questions. We got that, all the latest at New Hampshire, and more. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. Okay. This is funny. This is from NBC. A fake Joe Biden robocall told New Hampshire Democrats not to vote today. And you know how you could tell it was a robo call? Because he sounded perfectly articulate.

That's why. He said voting this Tuesday only enables the Republicans in their quest to elect Donald Trump. That's what he said. It was a fake call. But the New Hampshire's AG said they're investigating. They said it could be an unlawful attempt at voter suppression. Okay. I just, he's not even a. on the ballot. Biden's not even on the ballot. It's funny. But yeah, you know, you can't do that. Let's see. In and Out is closing an Oakland restaurant. Not because nobody wants to go there and purchase their burgers, but because the crime is so bad. So bad. Break-ins and the parking lot and everything else, they said that they can't keep it open because that's how bad the crime is. that is so sad when it's that i mean it's just destroying their the cities i don't know if you saw but gavin newsom was trying to he tried to dunk on desantis about having desantis said he was going to

honor the pledge and withdraw and suspend from the primary and newsom was trying to dunk on it but has he seen like stuff like this happening in his own state they have a poop map literally it's like a constantly updated map where people mark feces on the ground so other people can avoid the area that's a real thing so you know good grief kof California. Let's see here. There's also we've got a couple of other things. I want to make sure that we are hitting. We got the fake robocall. We also have another Democrat. Well, we had the Federman audio, but it's not just

Federman. You have Senator Maggie Hassan, a Democrat for New Hampshire, who is conceding that, yes, the Biden, that the border under President Biden is a crisis. And she actually said this just on NBC the other day. So now more and more Senator are coming over and saying this. The J6 committee deleted more than 100 files just before the GOP took over. They said it's a new bombshell report. They said the House Administration Committee Oversight Subcommittee, led by Barry Laudermilk out of Georgia,

has been looking into the security failure that day as well as what the J6 committee did. And they said it's just really weird that all these files, they totally went, they just disappeared into the ether. That's kind of weird. wouldn't you keep it, right? I mean, if you said it was like the greatest attack on American democracy since Pearl Harbor just bypass the 9-11 and all of that, then why wouldn't you keep all that stuff? I'm just like very, just Kinsinger want to answer as to why? What about Liz Cheney would just she, you know? I'm just saying, nothing. Israel's proposed a two-month ceasefire if all the hostages are released. This comes after Hamas says, we don't want to ceasefire.

We also don't want a two-state solution. We don't want any of it. So what are the, we're going to talk more about this. But so what are, What are they? What's the goal here that they have? And American and British forces carried out some more large-scale strikes on the Houthis in Yemen. Still nowhere from the Saudis there. We have a lot more on the way. Stick with us. Whether you're a policy wonk, a news junkie, or simply someone hungry for insightful discourse, the Dana Show podcast has your back. Follow Dana on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Well, so there is no question that our immigration system is broken. And so much so that we, as the first bill that we offered after our inauguration, was to fix the immigration system, which included what we must do to create a pathway for citizenship and to put the resources that are needed into the border.

A pathway for citizenship? No, no, no. First off, that's Kamala Harris talking about immigration and amnesty. That's what she's talking about. She's talking about amnesty in this interview here. And no, that's not, if you want to have a pathway to citizenship, there is a way to actually make the process a little bit more streamlined. And I absolutely, I've been saying this for a decade that it has to be done because you are penalizing the exact people that we want to come here and to join us in being Americans. I said this yesterday, and I know for those of you heard it, you know, it sounds familiar, but those of you who haven't, I mean, this is what America is all about. It's not about uniting around one, an identity politic like race or religion or,

you know, ethnicity or anything else. It is about unity around the singular concept of do you want to be free? Yes or no. I mean, that's simply, that's it. Do you want to be free? It's a very simple thing. And if you do want to be free, and that's, that's, you know, what you, that's how you want to live, then, then, great, come here, go through the process, be an American citizen, and join us. And then that's our American identity. And the people, and there are Republicans who actually are being used to stooges by the left playing into this. Because they join along in plain identity politics with this stuff. And you can't. First off, because that's not how the United States ever came into being. The United States has never been a country united around

anything other than freedom. That's been it. And so whenever I see, you know, like the left and I, they always, it's funny because the left always, they're the ones who actually engage in what they call the great replacement theory, where they think people are going to immigrate and replace all the white people in America. Oh my gosh, this country never started as a purely white, what is the wrong with you. It's a free country. But it's the left that promotes it, which is what I think is hysterical. And then they act like, oh, the right is afraid of the great repastence. They actually, no, the right isn't. That's like you, that's the left. And that's why the left has always systemically, they've always throughout history, have been on the wrong side of it, whether it was

they were fighting against the right of women to vote, whether or not they were fighting against, or they sent indigenous Americans on the trail of genocide. I mean, they've been on the wrong side of history from the get-go. And that's another reason why they promote critical race theory. Critical race theory was designed. It was weaponized a virus to infect the minds of people to get them to turn away from the one identifying factor we all share. You want to be free.

And if you can focus on all of the other little things that are in consequence, and they are. Whether you're not a woman, whether you are white, whether you are black, whether you are Asian, whether you are whatever is totally irrelevant to the concept of freedom. But tyrants want you to focus on that. That's why the communist left wants you to focus on all of these other variables instead of the one freedom. That is the whole point of CRT. Division. So when talking about immigration, Republicans, first off, need to be unafraid to talk about it.

They would be, and the left is shocked because they don't ever go down on the border. They don't ever talk to people. The left has no idea that Hispanic Americans actually, you know, want to be able to have, you know, orderly immigration. I mean, because they do. They want orderly immigration, just like everybody else.

They don't want people flowing across the border you know, by the droves illegally. They don't want this stuff. They want merit-based immigration. That's what they want. They want all of this stuff the same as any other American. And there's nothing wrong with that. And so this whole discussion on immigration, Republicans, I said this yesterday, have got to get around it and they've got to be able to speak to it. Because when you have, especially looking at, like, for instance, H-1B visas. These are the people that they go into STEM, they go into this. I mean, fine, whatever you got to do, modify it to make

sure that people, if they come here and they get educated here, that they live here, they contribute to the tax base here, they become citizens. They have kids that share their values, and they also become, you know, very hardworking citizens and add a lot to the economic base because economic powerhouse countries

are hard to topple. I'm all for that. Make sure it's merit-based. I was talking with a friend of mine who does international business, And she was saying that the United States is one of the countries that doesn't actually look at merit-based immigration. It's if you have family here, if you have blood here. Oh, I got a family member. I have a blood relative and, you know, whatever state.

You can marry and get in. But everywhere else, you know, if you try to go to Ireland, if you try to go to good heavens, you try to go anywhere else, you can't. You can't do that. It's merit-based. Like, what can you contribute to the country? What do you add as a citizen? What asset do you bring? That's the whole point.

And I know people who have come to the United States, they want to immigrate here and be legal citizens. They want to be Americans. And there is virtually almost no path for them. They come here. They graduate from college. They get job offers. They work here. And they are literally the people that you want to come and be Americans with you.

They are the people you want. They didn't sneak across the border. They didn't run from Border Patrol agents. They didn't pay a cartel to smuggle. men, they didn't do any of that stuff. They came here and they've been slugging away, grinding away for years in order to do it right. And I can't tell you how many people of my acquaintance had to go back to their home countries for several years and then come back on a business, or they're still waiting. Meanwhile, there are people at the border who have come across. They get

taxpayer-funded cell phones. They get a stipend. They get plane tickets or bus tickets. and then they get sent to some, you know, maybe it's a blood relative somewhere in the further in the interior or in the United States. And in six years, three to six years, you got to go meet with your immigration judge if you can, you know, if you even do that. And that's it. Get driver's licenses. In California, they're allowing people who aren't even citizens to vote.

I mean, for crying out loud, that's, so you can see how that makes people who are working so hard, how that makes them upset. But in order to do it right, the pathway is full of stupid obstacles that it's almost like the government just wants busy work. And those are the exact people. And you know why? And you know why I also say they're the exact people that you want? Because they vote like you. They're family driven.

They share your values. Oh my gosh. They're natural conservatives. Do you think the people that are coming across the border and doing drugs and dealing with fake IDs and everything? Are they going to share your values? Does that share your values? Not every single person coming across the damn border needs asylum. That is the biggest lie told you in all of this.

My friend told me of a woman she knew in her home country in Columbia. And her woman's family, her parents ran a construction company. And they had different contracts with different people. And one of the entities that they had a contract with was a secretly cartel-owned business. and they were using that business to launder money. And unknowingly, the families, because the family are devout Christians, they were unaware until the dad was taken out in a hit because the drug cartel, the head of that cartel was taken out. And then the underlings got mad and decided to go and look for where they could get money later.

And they ended up, long story short, they ended up taking out that friend's dad. and the whole family had to go in hiding. They were trying to blow up their car. They shot bullets. They shot their houses all up. And they had bullet holes riddled in the sides of their houses and all kinds of stuff. And so they had to get all their documentation. They had to literally flee in the middle of the night and secretly come to the night and beg.

And they got asylum. That is an asylum case. Sneaking across the border because you don't want to do it the right way. And then sending your kid back and forth over the border a miller. in times because you're making money off it, getting more people in? That's not asylum. There's legitimate differences here. And we need to be honest and forthright when talking about it. And Democrats, Democrats don't want legal immigrants coming to this country. Because if they did, they would have made the process easier, but they don't want them because they don't vote for

Democrats. That's why they don't want Cubans coming in. That's why they turned the Cubans away coming into Florida because Cubans vote Republican. They get, that's why Biden got into a lot of trouble when he went down to Florida and he quoted Castro and oh my gosh, people lost their minds, deservedly so. Yeah, that's why. It's easier if you have someone who comes in who cannot generate income or anything for themselves because they can be bought because you can give it to them. And that's their whole MO.

No, they don't, Democrats don't want legal immigration. They don't want legal immigrants. They don't want law-abiding people coming into the country and joining the American dream. They don't want that because they're leaving somewhere for something better. And they know that Democrats aren't offering something better. They're offering what was from somewhere. And that's so they don't want that. That's why they fight to not make it easier.

They go down and they take pictures at the border by the fence. But what do they do to actually make it easier? For the people who desperately want to join the American dream and they want to work hard and generate wealth in this country and they want to raise their families here to be Americans and their kids are going to grow up, generate wealth in this country. Own businesses, contribute, go to church, do everything in their community. They make it harder for those folks. A lot harder. But if you sneak across the border, it's a lot easier. That is the fact of it.

I can't tell you how many people I have talked to and how many people. actual friends I have and acquaintances I have and I have heard so many stories about how insane it is. And then I hear from, you know, you hear people in the news, you hear it. I mean, it's so easy to just come across the border. You get your, you get your immigration court date, maybe three to six years. That's it. It's just assonine. Asinine.

No, we, Republicans have got to get hard in talking about it. otherwise they're going to get out maneuvered by Democrats on this. And that's just, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, assinine for that to happen. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man. All right. First up, this Lee or Lehigh, Aker's mailman was arrested because he was caught on camera, stealing supplies from a home construction site Friday, and driving away in,

his USPS truck, his actual United States Postal Service truck. Not the brightest, not the brightest bulb in the box, is he? According to Lee County Sheriff's Office, it's an owner of a local real estate company. So they saw this suspicious activity on their security camera at one of their home construction sites. And it was about, they said about two o'clock, the wife went over and noticed a USPS truck parked off front, loading the vehicle with construction items from the property. So she asked the mailman, this guy's 39, 39, 39 year old Christian O'arte, what he was doing. And it became clear he was not just picking up the mail.

She told him that she owned the property and he needed to put the stolen supplies back. And he put some of the stuff back where he had gotten it. But he wasn't done on loading. He drove across the street and began throwing cement blocks and other construction supplies onto the side of the road. He was stealing from everywhere. And then he like was trying to drive away, but the police showed up. and rebar all kinds of stuff and they identified yes he's a male man

and yes he was using the USPS truck so he was arrested in charge with Grant that from a construction site why in the world in your truck I mean not you should do you should do it anyway but still I mean good grief oh my gosh this is so crazy let's see here Florida just another Florida man

a Florida CFO Jimmy Petronis he wants to play the least legal fees of the former president. Florida's chief financial officer Jimmy Petronis says that this is following a Florida woman, senator, who, state senator, who also proposed it. They were proposing taking millions of taxpayer dollars and using it to pay off some of the legal bills from the former president. I don't think that's sitting well with people. I'm just saying it's just really not sitting well with people. Also, this guy, Florida man, destroys a bus after waking up in Disney instead of SeaWorld.

37-year-old Elijah Thomas. Now this happened in November, but now he's going through the system, right? So he's, you know, got the trial dates and all this. He was arrested after a violent attack on a bus. It transported him to Walt Disney World. Instead, he thought, I guess, that he was going to SeaWorld. And the driver said he's got to get off. Thomas became irate.

According to Orange County Sheriff's Office, began cursing at the driver. He exited the bus. The driver closed the doors. The guy remained outside. And he kept saying he needed to get to SeaWorld. and then he punched the door several times, kicked the bottom glass of the door too. He says causing it to break.

The damages were around $500. He tried to flee, but officers caught up with him, and he was arrested. They didn't pursue criminal charges, but yeah, that's, that was the, Juan showed you the bus that he was attacking. That, I mean, you, why, why? Just, you know, call an Uber or something. You don't have to do all of that stuff.

Oh, let's see. This puppy story. I'm going to get to that. This, let's see. No, no, not reading that one either. No, not reading that one. Oh, this one's, no, I'm not reading that one. This is a creepy Florida dude. This is in Coral Springs. The Florida man's accused of planting recording devices in his ex-girlfriend's home.

So he's charged with three felonies. He broke into her house and planted all of these recording devices in his ex-girlfriend's home in a couch, in a mattress, in a box spring. and she made the discovery after the child in her home said that he was listening to her on a laptop, on his laptop computer and head camera. So the kid gave him up. And they found nine recording devices in the home, including one that he put a hole in the mattress and put it in there. And the court records indicate they were auto recording surveillance devices and that the victim listened to some of the files on her computer heard her and her daughter's voice. So they got a warrant for the guys home.

They found all the stuff that he was using. And he was totally linked. He was released from jail in a $60,000 bomb. But he's being charged with two felony burglary charges and felony charge of interception of oral communications. So you can't spy on people like that. That's not what you're supposed to do that. Let's see.

A Florida man was charged with battery after a puppy sale argument led to a stabbing. Wow. That's pretty hardcore. A Florida man has been charged with aggravated battery because he stabbed somebody over a puppy. I mean, okay. I mean, Jarman McLemore. What, Micklamour was

38, he was 28, was quickly apprehended, aggravated battery, bodily harm. He's in jail. Still, stick with us, third hour next. Governor, you're wearing a home meeting. Uniting behind President Trump who say, you're showing a message of unity. How do you... They haven't even

voted here yet. They haven't even voted here. No, but I think it's not the party uniting around President Trump. It's the political elite that are uniting around President Trump. And the political elite have never been with me my entire career because I've always fought the political elite. It's why I want them to have term limits. It's why I want them to have mental competency tests.

It's why I think that they're, I call them out on wasteful spending, whether they're a Republican or Democrat. It's why I've said if you can't give Americans a budget on time, you shouldn't get. I kind of feel like if she were, which she's not, but I kind of feel like if she were going to get the nomination, then, um, he would be her VP, right? It kind of feels like that. Welcome back to the program.

Top of the third hour, Dana last year. Oh, boy, we are going through, getting ready for New Hampshire. Because it is today. And I'll, I guess, you know, when polls closed and as all the results come in, we'll recap all of that, like what it means, all that good stuff for you tomorrow. And then, of course, I'll have something up on the newsletter chapter and verse later tonight about it as well. So, yeah, he's campaigning. Chris and Neune is pulling for her hard and whether or not he's going to be successful in helping her pull out of victory.

I don't know that remains to be seen. Remains to be seen because I don't think that she's going to, I just don't think that she's going to take, she's not going to win. I mean, she's competitive against Trump in New Hampshire, but, I mean, in second place. I just don't see it happening. And in South Carolina, it's going to be worse, even though that's her state. I mean, you would think that, you know, in your own home state where you were governor, that you would probably put up more of a competitive advantage or have a competitive advantage, but she actually doesn't.

She's doing worse in South Carolina than she is in New Hampshire. It's weird. So we'll, we're going to have, we'll have all of that stuff. We'll bring you, we'll recap for you and bring you all the latest. But yeah, it's very, very, it's odd. But that's the way that it is. That's the way that it's set up. So they're going to have back and forwards.

And in the meantime, the press is getting ready to shift as we were talking about last week. We have the immigration fight, which we were talking about as well. And then, of course, they're going to pull up a couple of other things. I want to make sure that we're touching on is all incredibly important and all going to be factoring into this. The other story, energy, an energy developer is axing key coal power plants. to meet these arbitrary eco goals, jeopardizing power for millions of people. This is, it should be taken as a warning sign, but it's Minneapolis-based Excel Energy. They're announcing that they're closing one of their three coal units at Sherbourne County generating plant, their largest power plant,

because they have plans to deliver 100% carbon-free electricity to customers, and they want to shut down all of its remaining coal facilities. They say that they're going to retire two units at the plant and another coal plant in Minnesota, and they are going to shutter all of this. The South Dakota Public Utilities Commission fired off a letter urging them to reconsider their plans in the company, which has pledged to replace the plants with electricity generation from green energy like solar. They provide power to customers in Minnesota and South Dakota.

And the risk, the reliability risk is a very real thing. I mean, this is obviously, it's a premature move. I mean, you're retiring dependable energy and replacing it to something that has, is proven less dependable. And I'm, this does not look good. I'm just one, they said that two more plants have a total capacity of 3,000 megawatts

enough to power more than a million homes, but at the same time, uh, this is going to have, uh, it's a risk for millions of other people. You're closing as one regulator says, uh,

reliable, you're a major reliable base load energy. it's going to put lives at risk. All for the sake of what? To say that you have green? To say that you're going to do solar and that's that's assinine. That makes zero sense. So they said that they're going to vastly expand their green energy development.

But they're going to maintain their existing nuclear. They're going to, that's what they're, that's what they're looking at. That's Excel. And they're, by the way, they're basing their goals entirely on the United Nations climate projections and targets. the United Nations you know that bastion of pro-American everything so that's what they're that's what they're basing it on is that so you have hospitals people who are low-income folks farmers small businesses all are going to be effective uh all rely upon electricity it's a health and human

safety issue that's a major thing and again prematurely done that's gonna i mean it's gonna it's gonna it's gonna cost now he's continued Biden's continued continued in you. He's had his war on stoves. He's had his war on what, I mean, like everything, plumbing, fixtures, all kinds of stuff. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, though, this is via Washington Examiner, has dealt him a setback. So they have dealt him a little bit of a setback because he took all this action and all of this stuff. And now they said that the, the court described his regulations as arbitrary and capricious. That is a direct. that's direct from the court. And they said that they would be, quote, ineffective and pointless. They're honest. Wow. A little bit of honesty here.

Who knew? So they, I mean, that's, I'm a little shocked. But they said that, yes, this, the ruling on this, because these energy restrictions. Remember, he was looking to eliminate gas stoves. That was like, he had a whole list of things that he wanted to go after. And it was just, and I mean, it is. it's entirely arbitrary. It's so stupid.

And then they put these restrictions, performance restrictions on stuff that they know that there's no way in the world that they can meet them. And it just drives up the cost for consumers. That's the whole thing. Mm-mm-mm. So that's, you know, that's kind of, that's a,

that's a good point. And you know, the low flow dishwashers as well? Because the Washington examiner notes that, you know, included in this was the mandated, you know, they wanted to push the mandated low flow shower heads. They wanted to use low flow dishwashers. And what the examiner noted, too, when you use low flow showers, guess what happens? You don't actually save water because people have to shower longer. So you're still using the same amount of water. If you do low flow dishwashers, people literally have to wash their dishes twice

or sometimes they wash them by hand. And then you can actually, there was a study done on this, you actually use nine times as much water as an efficient dishwasher. That's a true thing. so it ends up you know they say low flow but you end up actually drink you end up using more water so there's no there's no savings there's no nothing going on here it's all virtue signaling it's all a veneer that's the whole point it's just a veneer all of this stuff i'm telling you all of this stuff is up and up for up on the chopping block up for up on the ballot with everything else coming up in November. Now we have New Hampshire.

I'm not getting into anything. I'm not getting into any of the poll. Everything is all sketchy. Nothing's going to be concrete until a half hour after polls closed. You're not going to know anything. Even the exits don't get. And I'm trying to remember if New Hampshire does exits.

Iowa didn't. They did entrance polling. But you're not going to know anything until 30 minutes after polls close. It's just, that's what it is. But it will decide a lot of independence, a lot of independence out on this. It's going to be varied.

It'll be a little bit different. That's why Haley's more competitive in New Hampshire than she is in Iowa. It's a whole different type of electorate, a whole different type of electorate. I don't know if you saw this post. I'm going to switch it up because one of the things that Republicans got to also not walk away from is fighting on culture because they have won whenever they fought on culture they've won. Where's this at? I had this piece from the New York Post and I kind of chuckled at it because it had to do. Here it is.

this is the headline for this. The headline sounds confusing, and it should because you're a person with sense. The headline is this. Trans man who had mastectomy discovered to be five months pregnant, making a rare sea horse dad. What? Yes. Trans man who had a mastectomy discovered to be five months pregnant, making rare sea horse dad. So it's a woman who underwent body modifications.

and got pregnant. That's really the actual headline. But the way that the press is taught, it's in the telegraph. And it first was in European media and then now U.S. media is picking up on it. And they call

them, it's a rare group of seahorse stats. It's literally a woman who cut off her boobs, elective surgery. It wasn't medically necessary. She had medically unnecessary mastectomy and transitioned to cosplay as a dude. and then is now trying to say that she's a seahorse dad.

Her name, she goes as Marco in Italian media. And apparently she was going to get a hysterectomy when they discovered she was pregnant. So they had to suspend her hormone therapy, all of that stuff. They said it puts the baby at risk, all of this kind of stuff. And they say that now she's a rare seahorse dad.

She's going to go through the pregnancy. And she's the child's biological mom. but they're going to register her legally as the dad, according to Italian press. It's the first of his kind in Italy. So transgender men who carry babies, the telegraph says, are called seahorse dads

because the males carry and give birth to their young and seahorses. But they're males still. It's just they're literally like an underwater organism and they just do things differently. Stop applying all of that to just like human makeup. So apparently the time, Times of London said that Marco will be both a biological mother and legal father.

You people don't get to make fun of the hilliest of hillbillies anymore. Not after that. You don't get to make fun of them no more. Not after that. That's crazy. It's a woman who had a baby. That's it. That's it.

How just, why does the law have to bend to affirm your fantasy self-perseller? perception. You can't reshape reality and you can't force other people to accommodate your fantasy self-perception. That's just stupid. You know what? Be normal. Go to a cosplay event at a Comic-Con like everybody else. Just do that. Like a regular person. Just go to Comic-Con and dress up for the love. We have headlines on the way. And now all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana. quick five. So a man was arrested for smuggling

cocaine in bags of jumbo shrimp in New York. 22, oh, nasty, the photos. 22-year-old Zachary Scott could face a maximum of 20 years in prison. It was a JFK. He was arrested because he was trying to bring cocaine inside. Bags of jumbo shrimp. He's a citizen of the U.S. He was arrested Friday. He was going through customs.

He came on American Airlines flight from Guyana. And during the screening process, they selected his suitcases for secondary screening, and they found loose clothing and all these packages of jumbo shrimp wrapped in sealed plastic. And they say that the packages of shrimp, they cut them open, and they found brick objects of white powder. And it was cocaine. 40 pounds of cocaine worth about $6,000. So he could face 20 years in prison. He's detained until his bail hearing this week.

That's pretty wild. Yeah. A woman, this is crazy. A woman was arrested. This is so wild. After she was found with $2,500 worth of Stanley cups in her car. She stole a bunch of Stanleys. 65 of them.

People, come on. They were worth about 2005. They're drinking things. They're thermosus. They're adult sippy cups. Why are people going nuts for these things? Why? I don't get it.

The Stanley thing. They said in Roseville that this woman, they said they were trying to, they reported a theft from this, this store. They saw this woman take a shopping cart full of Stanley's without paying for them. Yeah, like my grandpa used to go on camp with. Well, they've revamped and now everybody's crazy over them. They said that, that woman 23 of Sacramento was accused of grand theft. And they laid all of the cups out on her car. There's like a ton of them.

They laid all these cups out on her car. And they said that, I don't know. It's social media, which is horrible, and that's what did it. And it's the 40 fluid ounce one. I think it's crazy that people are stealing this. They're going crazy. Did you hear the one? What was it?

Was it at Target, the pink one that apparently grown women were going crazy for? Grown women going crazy over pink. Stanley. Okay. I just can't even. Let's see here. Also, parents are not, they're telling parents don't fly with your kids on your lap after the Alaskan Airlines thing.

because they, after that terrifying incident on board, they're urging parents to not fly with kids in their lap. They're saying that you want to be secure and safe in case, you know, they're sucked out of a window or something at 16,000 feet in the air. That's what happened with Alaska Airlines Flight 1282. They said the door plug blew out at 16,000 feet and it left a huge hole in the side of the plane. And they said that they had an issue because they had kids on the laps of these parents. parents and it was just chaotic and horrible and kids were injured and all the, oh my word. So they're saying don't do lap flat. I just think that would be uncomfortable, especially if it's a long haul flight. But not everybody can afford the exorbitant price of getting

another seat. And especially if you have a young baby, I mean, I get it. But I can't imagine it's not comfortable for the parents for sure. A California man entered a gym, took off his clothes, and then threatened everybody with a knife. You know, just another day in California. you. Investigator said that the 31-year-old was a suspect also in an unrelated case of battery. He went to a Simi Valley gym, brandished a knife. It was planet fitness, wouldn't you know? I was going to, when I first saw this headline, I was like, I bet it's a planet fitness. And of course I was. I was right. I was totally right. So he goes in, takes off his clothes, buck naked, and then threatens all the patrons at the gym with a knife.

I guess he wasn't there to work out, thankfully, because that would have been gross. But he was arrested. There were no injuries. He didn't step. have anybody. He just scared people. So we have more on the way as we roll through towards the conclusion of this third hour. Stick with us. Elevate your commute, workouts or downtime with the Dana Show podcast. Unleash the power of knowledge at your fingertips by following Dana on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. A couple weeks ago, he said that for years, quote, they were trying to get Roe v. Wade terminated, But he said, quote, I did it and I'm proud to have done it.

Proud? Proud? Proud that women across our nation are suffering? Proud? That women have been robbed of a fundamental freedom? Proud that doctors could be thrown in prison for caring for their patients, that young women today have fewer rights than their mothers and grandmother. What rights is she talking about? This is my whole point with Democrats and women and the

whole, you know, everything that they push on this. It's so incredibly annoying because they treat, you know, women are just treated like, here's our cup holders. Here's the lighted mirror and the visor. It's all you get. So goofy. Welcome back to the program, bottom of the third hour, Dana last year with you. She's, they're going to trot her out because they need her to play that angle against, uh, Republicans going into, uh, November. They desperately need to play that angle. And, uh, she's, I mean, she's, you know, she had her little theatrical speech.

Her theatrical speech. How dare you? All this other stuff. But what rights is she talking about? I mean, it's, uh, nothing's been, nothing's changed except it. you have, you're looking at the states who are handling this because, uh, you don't have the, that's not the federal government's responsibility to manage, uh, that issue. I, what, what is she talking about? It's birth control for recreational. That's what she's, that's what, that's what, that's what, that's what,

that's what, that's what, my gosh, it's the same damn stuff that we've been arguing year after year after year. decades after decades these old broads got to get something new to talk about i'm so tired of it every election it's the same old 60 stuff and these old broads get up there and my buddy my choice it's not your choice if i'm paying for it sister mm-mm if i'm paying for what you're doing i'm your madam get the relationship right gop's got to get a handle on this all right so new hampshire going into new hampshire we're going to have the results tonight. And Biden's not on the ballot in New Hampshire. He really

isn't. It's, because I told you earlier, they had a fight with the Democrat Party about the calendar and having South Carolina go. I was reading this piece that came out this morning because they got to an argument. They wanted to overhaul the primary system and they had sent a letter to the Democratic National Committee, their rules and bylaws committee, et cetera. And so as a result, he was, you know, penalized by, he's not been on the ballot because the New Hampshire's always been, you know, basically the first in the nation for their parties, primary. That's how it's generally

been. And it's, they, that's, that's, that's why he, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, long short, sure, that's why he's not on the, not on the ballot. But he's got some, you know, he's, he's, he's, There's one guy who actually may do it. He may get that Phillips guy. He may actually, I mean, he may actually do it. So we're all, everyone's looking at to see what New Hampshire for Haley, what that's going to look like against Trump, because you have, I'm looking at some of the data here. She's, this is where she's most competitive with him.

After that, I don't know where it goes. And I don't think anybody else does either, if I'm being honest. Nobody, because she's, I just don't see her unless she gets up to, uh, I mean, really, unless she gets up to, I mean, he's like plus 19, the RCP average. Other averages have him at like plus 17. I mean, he's up double digits. She's got to get him within or less than 10 points. And he's just leading her.

I mean, as it stands right now, he's 55 to her 36%. And we'll, you know, we'll get that out. But he's led the entire time. It only, it actually diminished a little bit back at the first of the, the month, but then you had insider advantage. She had Boston Globe, Suffolk, Emerson, and several others that showed him getting some, putting some more distance between him and Haley. So she's, this is where she is the most competitive with him, because she's at 36 to his 55. In South Carolina, she's looking at 21 to 52 percent against him. So she's, you know, she's not,

she's not doing too well there. Not at all. So that's, I mean, that's her own. state and he's the average is he's plus 30 over her in South Carolina right now. So she's got it, this is her last stand. This is as Iowa was to DeSantis, I really think New Hampshire is to her. However, as I've said before, this is a delegate race and it's a race to see who can survive the longest on the money that they have. And I can't see her trying to make another bid after this year. So she loses this primary unless she gets, you know, he makes her VP. I can't imagine that she's, that she would ever have another chance to be able to run for president again. So she might actually stay in all the way up until Super Tuesday, no matter how, you know, poorly she does tonight or how poorly she is measured as

performing in South Carolina. So, you know, that remains to be seen. So we're going to have all of the breakdown from that. But it's the independence. I'm just looking at some of my dad. It's the independence that have really been breaking for her. And that's the group that Trump needs to win. She actually can't get the base, which, you know, doesn't help her at all because you got to be able to win the base to get the nomination and she's struggling there. Whereas Trump gets the base locked up, but then after that, he struggles to expand his lead. So that's, it's they each have the opposite problem. And so that's going into New Hampshire. She is, you know, for all of the discussion over never Trump and not never Trump, I think it's just assinine to call people who voted for Trump twice and simply pick somebody different in the primary.

to say never Trump. But Haley's supporters actually, I think, are because they've done a lot of, there have been a lot of man on the streets interviews with her, et cetera. And it's been kind of interesting to see because a lot of them are like, oh, well, we'll consider RFK if it's not her, or we'll consider, you know, this, or we're just not going to vote or where. So I actually think she is getting that vote. And notice that that overlaps with a lot of the old Roe-esque.

old compassionate conservatism establishment of the late 90s early aughts so this will this but this is her test this is really her test uh but i mean she's got the she got the has the money to stay in you know i mean that's she does have them and she's expected to do some more fundraisers i told you that she's going into texas and she's going to have some she's going to have some big establishment fundraising dinner so we'll see but the the new hampshire is is really ultimately her, her, she's got to perform incredibly well. And will, I, I, she's just not happy. She's just not popular in South Carolina.

And if you can't win your own state, you're just not going to win. You're not competitive. If you're not doing well in your own state, I don't care if it's again, she's an incumbent too in her own state. She's a governor, which should make her even more attractive to voters than Trump, who's New York to Florida. So it's, it's just, we'll see. We'll see how this, we'll see how this, how this goes.

We have a couple of other things to touch on as well. We've been talking about the border. We've also been talking about the latest with Israel and Hamas. Because Hamas has said, yeah, we're not going to have any kind of ceasefire. We're not going to entertain the idea of a ceasefire. We're not going to do any of that stuff, which makes all the people who've been screaming about ceasefires look like absolute clowns. I mean, it really does.

All the people who are like ceasefire now, they look like absolute clowns because they have rejected every single. They don't want to ceasefire. They don't want to ceasefire. This happened yesterday where there was another offer made because Israel has said, look, if you release the hostages, we're going to, we'll have a two-month pause in all offensive maneuvers. We will

pause fighting in Gaza if you release the hostages for two months. That's it. Now, it wasn't ending the fighting, but they said they'll pause it for two months. They have 130 hostages that are still held in Gaza. A lot of Americans that are still held in Gaza. Notice that no, the president hasn't said a single damn thing about them. Nothing about the Americans being held there. Actual American citizens.

So several dozen hostages actually probably aren't even alive anymore, but they said that they believe that more than 130 are still being held in Gaza. And you have Qatari and Egyptian mediators have been trying to negotiate some of this and walk people towards a deal. But it's not that Israel's dragging their fate. It's that Hamas has rejected literally every single thing. Every single thing. So they've demanded a ceasefire. They've demanded all, I mean, they began to ceasefire the day after there was, the day that there was a response from Israel. So now they've said there's not going to be, you had,

there's not going to be a ceasefire. You had a ceasefire, by the way, on October 6th. They're not going to, they're not going to agree to anything. So now the people who were pushing them to, to stop the conflict, et cetera, they, like Rashida Talib and AOC, and Pramia Japal, they look like fools. Because these people are not, Hamas is not serious for peace.

Israel is going to totally destroy them and they should. They can't exist anymore. They cannot be allowed to exist on this rock anymore. It's done. It's been 20 years, 20 plus years of this. They can't do it anymore. There's not going to, Hamas doesn't win peace. They've rejected every two-state solution.

They've rejected every ceasefire. They have rejected everything. they have chosen over and over again not to have peace. You cannot have peace with people who don't want it. You cannot have peace with people who are hell-bent on making war. And so now it's back to these people. So now what are you going to do? Because their leadership, they're like, yeah, it's not going to happen.

They came out officially said it. Their leader made a public statement. He said that he's still saying October 7th was just a rehearsal. There's not, there will be no ceaseful. fire. You know, the resistance against the occupation will continue. So he said, no, it's still going to happen. So when are people going to look at Hamas and say ceasefire? Because really, those are the people you got to tell this to. It's not Israel. It's Hamas. So I, I don't, I, to me, that's a green light for them to go, uh, full steam ahead. And keep doing what they're doing.

Follow Dana on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Because now, is your ultimate superpower. Well, I think that most women who have risen in their profession, who are leaders in their profession, have had similar experiences. I was the first woman to be elected district attorney. I was the first woman to be elected attorney general in the state of California, and I'm the first woman to be vice president. And I love my job.

She's creepy when she says that. That's the vice president Kamala Harris. CNN says you just don't love her enough. She's so great. Dana Lash here, welcome back to the show. You know, her whole audio sound right there when she was answering this question had to do with, you know, most women who have risen in their profession have similar experiences as being branded and capable because that was the context of her question, her answer to that question. You know what? She's almost right because we've been seeing this in different workplaces and sports teams and even with skincare companies and all kinds of stuff because we see men who are cosplaying as women. usurping roles that are women's roles in women's leagues and in women's competitions. And we saw that too with the NXXXT women's pro tour where you had a dude cosplay as a woman. And in a tour, a tournament that was literally created to quote unquote elevate women's participation in golf. And this dude wins it.

And there's been a lot of backlash. So the tour actually, I thought it was a good response. The tour's response was very interesting. So they released a, basically a statement because people are asking, why is a man allowed to play in a women's league? Even if he's dressed like a lady and has all that, because it's, he went through puberty as a man. He went through all this as a, he's a man. So they put a survey in the field among the rest of the players and they asked them to comment on their gender policies. And the daily caller has a piece on this.

and they said that it should be applauded. Because all the backlash, I mean, it looks like he's, I mean, it looks like he's probably out. Because they said he, in January, the tournament was January 17th. They said he was victorious. He was in the top and the points and standings. And they get two exempt Epsom tour. They go to the Epson tour, and that's the LPGA's feeder tour.

And if he had solid Epson showings and he finished in the top five, then he could go on the LPGA, the Women's League. And so they said, quote, in light of recent events, this is what an XXT did. And kudos to them. We've initiated a poll amongst our top players to gather the opinions on gender policy. We believe it's vital to consider those perspectives from the people directly affected by it. And they said, we've requested Haley Davidson, that's the man, cosplay as a woman, to undergo additional testosterone testing to ensure compliance. So that's a good first step.

They need to just kick him out all the way because he's a dude competing. treating the women's league like a JV league. So when I hear people like Kamala Harris say, yes, you know, women are viewed as incapable. They absolutely are in instances like this. She won't speak up for these, like actual concrete examples, though. If you want to talk about pushing women aside or making them feel second class, this is it precisely.

So that's a good first step. You know, there was a lot of pushback for that because he's quite literally appropriate. creating a women's sports tournament, a golf tournament, and removing an actual woman deserving of that position from the leaderboard and taking her spot. That's the definition of patriarchy. All right. Today in stupidity.

Kane is out. We're going to meet up with him in Vegas at Chacho tomorrow. Steve is in for Kane with today's dose of stupid. Okay. You remember that Canadian reporter that tried to get at that UFC fighter? Well, he tried it again yesterday. This is how that went. Dana, I just want to go back.

You were talking about, like, you obviously give a long leash to your fighters about, you know, what they can say. When they are up there with a UFC microphone and you are getting into territory of homophobia, transphobia, like, is there... I don't give anybody a leash. Well, I'm saying you... A leash? I'm saying, like... Free speech. I control what people say.

Going to tell people what to believe. that one ever just as well as you thought it would yeah that would i'm i'm really liking these ufc press conferences as of late i'm really liking them so this is uh this is a good yeah it's free it is free speech that's correct all right so tomorrow we're going to be broadcasting from shot show in las vegas and we have a whole bunch of awesome guests lined up for you we're going to be talking a whole bunch of issues and of course the new hampshire recap we got that as well have a great night back with you tomorrow
