Starting point is 00:00:00 Unrealized gains, taxing unrealized games just doesn't seem fair in any sense of the word. In the very best sense, if you are taxing unrealized gains, all you're doing is pulling forward the taxes that would be paid later when someone actually sells the stock. I think that this reaction to unrealized gains is a little funny given that I bet that the majority of people watching right now are already paying a tax on unrealized gains. It's called a property tax. When the value of your home goes up, that's an old. It's a use tax. When the value of your home goes up, you pay higher taxes, even if you don't sell your home. Your value of your home never moves the way a stock moves, the way something else moves.
Starting point is 00:00:36 It's always the go-to answer. It's also property tax is a use tax. You're paying for the schools. You're paying for emergency services. Those are things that make absolute sense. And sure, and all the revenue that comes in from these unrealized gains taxes and the other taxes in the tax in the Harris plan are going to go to creating what she calls more opportunity. It's to make sure that every newborn born of this country get six.
Starting point is 00:00:58 thousand dollars in the services well look i you're you're arguing that this is some sort of foreign concept that's completely uh unknown probably unconstitutional it's probably and it was never in in anyone's intent to it's not it's not an income tax and it's never going to happen probably not not in well my i'm not going to say my life i i wouldn't say that not in becky's life time i like this guy on the right i don't remember who he is i i don't remember what is yeah What is it? Joe. I don't know who the hell he is.
Starting point is 00:01:30 I don't watch CNBC. But the more that I, the more clips that I see, this guy, the more I like him. Because I feel like he just sat down his pint and was like, look, you're stupid. And he just goes into it from there. Golly. Welcome to the program. Stana Lash here with you. We're at the top of this first hour.
Starting point is 00:01:48 And of course, you know, now that I was talking a little bit about this on Jesse Waters last night. And we're going to touch on some of it today. the Kamala Kamala Harris communism her economic plans the wealth tax all of this other stuff
Starting point is 00:02:02 one of the reasons I think that they are not on the website and I was thinking about this is because they I mean when you put it up on the website
Starting point is 00:02:10 you got to claim it right when you put it up on the website that's your plan right that's that becomes your that's your plan
Starting point is 00:02:21 that's your thing and you can't run away from it because it's on your website and you own it now. And it's a big deal. So I think the reason why they haven't actually put it on the website is because she doesn't want to have to own it in case it blows up in her face like this is. So they do these like trial balloon things where they float out these policies because the stuff about the border and even even some of her other economic policy, not necessarily the
Starting point is 00:02:53 unrealized gains, which she's talked about before. But some of these new changes in positions that she has, you know, away from what she's always held, they've been put out there by todies, by her staffers, et cetera. And I think that they float these ideas and then kind of see how the public reacts. And then they gauge whether or not that's something that she's going to hit really hard or if she needs to modify her position on it, et cetera, et cetera. That's really how I think that they've been doing this, and that's the purpose. So welcome to the show. You can also find this channel 347 direct TV. The chats over at Rumble, also on X2, substack chapter and verse. The unrealized gains is going to be, this is going to be something
Starting point is 00:03:37 that destroys America. It will destroy our economy. And I, I just turn, I, our founders went to war for less. And if they start doing this, honestly, I just, our founders went to war for less. this is it's insane and the property tax i i mean at cnbc they were pushing back against it because they know they're going to get hit with those stuff too they know exactly they're going to get hit with all of this stuff too it's a property look i think property taxes are also stupid thank you for giving me the opportunity to discuss how you never own your own property if you want to pay a fee charge a fee for your water and your police and everything else that's fine do it do it like you do the trash service that's fine
Starting point is 00:04:22 you know for I and I don't think we should be publicly funding schools I think we should just tax parents less so parents can choose where the hell they want to send their kids so they're not looped into sending them wherever they they have to live so I'm even for a change in that structure because it's all a racket it's all an absolute racket so the comparison to property taxes is even dumber because at least you get some sort of return on your forced investment right even if you didn't necessarily agree to it you you get some kind of return on your forced investment. But by and large, that's not a sacred cow either. So I love the opportunity to talk about how dumb it is. But it's not even remotely in any way comparable.
Starting point is 00:05:01 You're talking about taxing something that you haven't even made yet, money that you don't even have, and that it's assumed value by the government. Who, by the way, as we talked about with Carol Roth, what was it last week, you don't actually, they don't pay you if you lose on it. So if it de-appreciates, if it if it is de-valued by, you know, whatever factor, whatever reason, is the government going to write me a check on it? What about that? Because see, that's a two-way street. The problem is that the government won't stop spending. And sitting here telling everyone, we're going to give you $25,000 for a house. That's going to make it even worse. None of these people can do math because these people on the left have never had to make payroll. They've never started a business. They've never really worked. Think about it. Look at all of these people. They've never worked a day in the private sector. Kamala Harris has always been in public office. Always. Biden has never worked a day in the private sector. Ever. Tim Wals was what, an assistant coach for a year. And he is living off that for the rest of his life as an optic. These people have no idea.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Bernie Sanders, you, Bernie Sanders never literally, I'm not exaggerating. He literally never worked in the private sector a day in his life. Ever. These people are trash. They have no idea what you go through. They have no idea what things cost because they live in an alternate reality. I mean, they want to text the value of your house, basically, when you can't, not basically, before you, you ain't
Starting point is 00:06:35 even sold it. Oh, it would appreciate it. We're going to text you on this. We're going to text you on all the games. All of the unreal. I mean, that's the dumbest phrase ever. I don't know if there's a dumber phrase from other, you know, with unrealized gains, maybe assault weapons. But hat? I don't
Starting point is 00:06:53 know. I mean, you know, it's a hat for your butt. I don't know. You know, homeowners also know this, that they won't even lower your home property taxes when your value of your home might go down until you actually protest it. Oh, I fight. I will fight every little thing to the end's degree. Government is a vacuum of money. I will tell you this, local bureaucrats, if me or my husband roll up,
Starting point is 00:07:16 they know that they're in for a bad time. I will literally fight you on every damn thing. If you raise something on me, even a half a cent, I am in your face. I don't give a rat's ass. I will roll up. And my husband's always like, you're on the radio.
Starting point is 00:07:33 When you do TV, you can't do. I'm like, I don't care. I'm an American citizen. I don't have enough middle fingers for this tyranny. And then I just blow in there. And we always do this thing where my husband's like, okay, we got to be good cop, bad cop.
Starting point is 00:07:44 Let me be the bad cop. And I'm like, okay. All right. And then we roll in and I'm like, and I'm bad cop immediately. So he has to, he's like, gosh, dang it, Dana, stop it. That's where we're at. Our kid's going to test to this. It's hysterical. But I fight everything. And I totally agree with you. You still have to pay it. You still have to pay it. They were trying to do that with our property tax. And I'm like, listen, here, kittens. This ain't, this ain't how. And they're like, well, we have comps. And I'm like, oh, you have comps. Would you like to see all mine? And then, then they die because they can't, they don't live long enough to read everything. I brought them. So, I mean, you, I mean, the government could increase your,
Starting point is 00:08:25 I mean, think about your savings account. Anything that you own without selling any of it, they can increase the cost of it. And then tax you on it. Now, think about how that works for a moment, please. The government in charge, essentially, of all monetary policy, right? They are in charge of determining the worth of things.
Starting point is 00:08:45 You say, well, Dana, it's the market, but they manipulate the market. So they can just arbitrarily jack something up and then go, oh, well, you owe us taxes on this. You're unrealized gains. determine that the property that you own is way more valuable. So we're going to tax you on this unrealized gain. You didn't sell it. Your car is an unrealized gain. It appreciated it and it value. We're going to tax you on everything. Everything. This is the dumbest thing I've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:09:12 They want your money because they can't stop spending it. They're spending it like a drunk dude at a strip club. I don't know. I can't talk about it without getting really upset. like comically mad. I just, I can't. I'm turning into my mother's daughter. This is so crazy. Like you talk to her about social security. You can't, actually.
Starting point is 00:09:33 You can't talk to her about social security. She like turns into a demon and like fire shoots out of her ears and she just, you know, her eyes turn red and she talks about how it's her money, which it is. No one's contesting it, but you just can't even bring it up. You mention it and you are an enemy. It doesn't matter. Everyone in the vicinity is an enemy. It's a thing.
Starting point is 00:09:53 And don't text me either. She's, she's retired now. So she listens. She'll text me. Like she told me I was a smart ass the other day when I mentioned her. She texted me. I was on air. And she says this.
Starting point is 00:10:01 It's like, mother. But I'm, this is how I'm becoming with this. It's insane how much everybody's paying in tax. How much we paid in tax? It's crazy. And now they want more of it. This is going to utterly destroy the economy. We're going to talk more about this because I can't talk enough about it.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Also, the, um, some people are saying is Kamala Harris is Brat Summer finally over? Can we stop with that? So Brat Summer and I'm in now it's being used in the context of political discourse as I understand it if you're a bitch
Starting point is 00:10:37 and you wear neon that means you're brat Is that correct Steve? Oh well for the love Well that's what I read It's all these annoying chicks and they're all in neon colors And they're like this is a brat wardrobe and I'm like Okay like Brat style wardrobe I don't know But they're saying it's calmly hers is Brat, some are finally over.
Starting point is 00:10:58 The, because newspapers are questioning her on this. People are starting to question her. Now, a couple of other things. We got the Jack Smith indictment. One of the reasons I don't get into the weeds in this is because other people do. And I would rather, I think, dangle my feet in a wood chipper than to spend an inordinate amount of time on it. Because if I talk about it in a serious fashion, then I feel like I'm giving it gravita. I feel like I am treating it as though I think it's a serious maneuver, and I think it's all a clown show of epic proportions.
Starting point is 00:11:31 I have zero faith in the quote-unquote system. I don't have any faith in government because I'm an American, and it's part of my DNA. In fact, if you put, you take, you know, draw some blood on us, and you look at our blood under our microscope, and you go all the way into our DNA, you look at it, and it is basically somebody with a bandana rainbow style tied around their forehead, and they're holding up a one-finger. or salute to overreaching government. That's what the American DNA looks like. And when you become an American citizen, your DNA is transfixed. And it turns into that.
Starting point is 00:12:05 That is a scientific reality. And so I just don't, I don't trust any of this. And so on a 36-page indictment by this guy who looks lonely, that's just, that's, I mean, we'll talk a little bit about it, but I mean, it's just all, it's all, you knew this was coming.
Starting point is 00:12:22 This isn't a surprise. You knew that they were going to keep doing this. What they're doing is he, they're the same charges. It's just he's now trying to do it in the context of the new SCOTUS ruling on presidential immunity. So they just adjusted it to fit that. So we'll touch on that here coming up. Also, later on, we're going to get into some polling. And Goshen.
Starting point is 00:12:41 Oh, so this is a fascinating, I've been watching this. J.D. Vance was in Michigan yesterday. He was hitting out at Goshen. Goshen is the big Chinese EV battery maker, and they're wanting to, to move into Michigan. And of course, big Grouch is up there like, yeah, I love me some CCP. And so now you've got Democrats who they're in a really weird position. Like, do we want to bring the commies into Michigan? I mean, sorry, more commies into Michigan. Or do we, you know, want to try to, how do we want to do this? So we're going to, we're going to discuss some of this.
Starting point is 00:13:13 We're going to get into some of the immigration, the election, culture, all kinds of stuff. So you don't want to miss it.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. Okay, first stop, we've got, oh, more kitchen spices being recalled because leads in it. And I was looking at this because I'm very particular about my spices, as y'all know.
Starting point is 00:14:48 So I was looking at it. They said there's six other, it's like ground cinnamon. That is the thing with cinnamon. You got to be real careful about the cinnamon. You get, I could do a whole show on it, but I'm not going to. But they have this. There's like the El Servidor Corp cinnamon. That was mainly sold to New York.
Starting point is 00:15:04 Maybe don't use, maybe Ixnay that one. That one, they found some lead in it and it's a Gutierrez distributor. They've reported no illnesses. They're just like, hey, what's up? So make sure you're checking your spices. Be real careful about the cinnamon you get. There's like a certain kind that actually is, yeah, Kane's like, I feel so validated. I got like Mr. Cambucca over there going there is.
Starting point is 00:15:25 Yeah, Ceylon is better than Cassia. Just that's basically how it goes. Yes, that is true. A ransomware gang threatens to release data on U.S. Marshals. I just think it's funny that there's a ransomware gang. Like anybody can be a gang right now, right? Like you can have a cartel that's a gang. You know, you can have your basic, you know, drug and guns gang in Chicago.
Starting point is 00:15:44 Now you got the ransomware gang. You know, you're probably going to have like your painting gang. you know, it says everybody's a gang. They're threatening to release top secret documents from U.S. Marshals. They've said they've got all kinds of stuff. I just think that's going to make it a lot more fun for U.S. Marshals. I don't know. I've watched too much justified.
Starting point is 00:15:59 I just feel like it's going to make it a lot more fun for them. Also, mm-hmm, matching set of dinosaur footprints was found on the opposite sides of the Atlantic Ocean. Can you believe a dinosaur was so big to straddle the Atlantic Ocean like that? So crazy. Wow. Matching set of footprints discovered a
Starting point is 00:16:18 Africa and South America, they revealed that there was a giant dinosaur that once had its foot on either side. No, they think that there was pangia. That's what it goes back to pangia. Also, deadly mosquito virus puts Massachusetts towns on high alert. Why do we have those? Like out of all the things that they look to eradicate, you know, like, you know, family wealth, freedom, go after mosquitoes, right? Just start there. I'll make fun of Peloton in the next segment. We got more coming up. Stick with us. I agree with Annie Oakley who said, quote, I would like to see a woman know how to handle guns as naturally as they know how to handle babies. Now, I myself regularly conceal carry 9mm. Now that said, not every woman is like me, has had the hours of training that I've had,
Starting point is 00:16:59 or feels comfortable around firearms due to years of use, or maybe they're by a gun-free zone. I'd like to change that what I can while encouraging self-defense at the same time. So this is where Berna comes in. It's kind of like a starter weapon. It's, they make a non-firearm firearm firearm. I like the idea of incredible force sending chemical irritants towards a threat as an additional option for women. And the Burna SD model shoots chemical irritant projectiles, 68 caliber rounds that can deter threats in their tracks up to 50 feet away. I mean, it is hard. Easy target acquisition zero recoil. Burna is legal in all 50 states. There's no background checks, no permits required. It's shipped directly to your door. Gun free isn't applicable to Burna. It's great for wherever guns are banned.

Now we stand very close, of course, to the new Goshen factory, right? That's right. And remember the tie-breaking vote that she cast to send inflation through the roof. Remember that vote? That vote also made Chinese companies like Goshen eligible for millions of your taxpayer dollars. hashtag facts. That is true. So Goshen, this is now going to be a big thing. And it's, because
Starting point is 00:18:49 Michigan's, it's not as in play as much as Pennsylvania is or even maybe perhaps as much as Georgia is, but it's still very important. It's that part of that blue wall. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. Bottom of this first hour. So Goshen is this big CCP company. They always say, well, it's Chinese Communist Link. Look, I'm going to say it once and for all. You cannot be a business out of China and not be a CCP member in good standing. Not only do you have to be a member of the CCP in good standing, but the CCP also puts members of its own party on your company's board. That's to ensure compliance.
Starting point is 00:19:29 So, you know, the beating cease when behavior improves. So the CCP link, no, they're communist, straight up. And so this partnership with, Goshen. You know, this is something that's been really championed by Big Gretsch, the governor over there. They had a, and this was back in last year, it's a $2.4 billion project, and it's slated for Macasta County's Big Rapids. They say they're going to create over 2,300 jobs, and they want to produce components that go into making the electric vehicle batteries, right? But understandably, there is a lot of concern about the connections Goshen has to the CCP.
Starting point is 00:20:20 There are legitimate NATSEC issues. And they underwent this voluntary review that was carried out by the Department of Treasury, their committee on foreign investment in the United States. And, you know, our government has never aired. And our government is run by entirely pure people. right? We all know this, you know, especially under this administration. So those people determined that that's, uh, it's fine. They don't need to undergo anything else. So they approved all of this. There was a lot of public outcry during the hearing though. And people were very
Starting point is 00:20:56 upset. They didn't want this Chinese-based company developing this massive factory in Michigan. And a lot of people were like, why, you know, you have American companies that are willing to do this, that want to undertake this project, why are you allowing a Chinese company to come in here and do this? And they, a lot of people in Michigan felt that it was rushed, that the process to consider them and, and move on to the next step was rushed. And they, I mean, there were a lot of people, it seems like more than not, more, more people than not were angry that this was being pushed through so rapidly. And they think that, you know, this could also be, you know, here's CCP coming in and trying to, trying to get tentacles in. I mean, it's,
Starting point is 00:21:36 700 acres of land in Michigan that the CCP would own. It would be a CCP business, the employees, and you could say it creates 2,300 American jobs, but these are people who are working for the CCP. So you're making communist chills out of regular American people who just simply want to have a job. When you could have an American company come in and do the exact same thing. But for some reason, it's the CCP-adjacent owned company that's, that's, you know, getting apparently all of the consideration. And the company itself, and this is something that all companies do in China, they have to, so not only do they have to be a CCP member in good standing, and not only does a member of the CCP place someone on their board, but they also have to have like a commitment, be very
Starting point is 00:22:18 public about their commitment and their unwavering loyalty to the CCP. So, yeah, there's a lot of concerns there. And the, it was the Midwesterner, the Midwestern. Midwesterner. News that had this story where it says that Goetian's bylaws say that it will set up a party organization and carry out party activities in accordance with the Constitution of the Communist Party of China. That's a little bit of a problem. And they, because, you know, the company, which is CCP will guarantee and oversee the implementation of the party's guidelines, principles, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So you have a huge company in Michigan that's going to be basically
Starting point is 00:23:02 a satellite for the CCP. And of course, Michigan Democrats are very excited about it. Big Gretch is very excited about it. But there are some, and this is what Vance was hitting out at, by the way. So this was a headline over the New York Times. The reason I'm bringing all of this up is because the media wants to use this as a wedge without reporting on everything. So the headline over the New York Times is, quote,
Starting point is 00:23:26 to lure Michigan voters, Trump campaign stokes China fears. I don't know how you can stoke fears about communists. I mean, it's a communism. And they noted J.D. Vance was in Michigan, and they said he waited into a fight over plans by Goshen to build this company. They said that it's a green charter township. It's about 60 miles north of Grand Rapids. They've been, it's been this huge, it's been a big battleground. And now they're acting like, somehow like it's, like Trump is creating Trump and Vance are creating the drama. Yeah. It's so stupid. They said, I was reading this piece and it says, because Michigan, again, it is a state that is in play.
Starting point is 00:24:14 I don't think as much as Pennsylvania, but it is. And New York Times notes this. They said Michigan is a pivotal swing state. I don't know if I'd go that far in the November election. It's not guaranteed by Democrats, though. And remember, Trump did win it before. And New York Times, CNN poll showed this month showed Harris. She was ahead of Trump by four points.
Starting point is 00:24:34 The, this same poll was a margin of error of three. So if she's ahead by four percentage points and if you factor in a 3.5 margin of error That's like what she's like half a point ahead so they're tied virtually at this they're they're tied And what Vance noted was accurate. I mean her vote she was the deciding vote The deciding vote that enabled the inflation reduction act to pass the Senate the new New York Times noted this, too. They said she was the deciding vote. It was Harris, Ms. Harris in 2022, enabled passage of the Inflation Reduction Act. And this is all of these, the subsidies that that bill created for the new green energy, that was what was luring companies like Goshen
Starting point is 00:25:28 to come to the United States. And there's not a thing that he said that was incorrect. It would be this this CCP company would be getting taxpayer dollars in order to get going on this. I mean, that's, I mean, that's, it's kind of crazy to think about it. But that's true. There's a lot of been a lot of reporting on it. I mean, you're getting taxpayer dollars that are being funneled to a CCP company. The Michigan Senate, they granted legislative approval to provide $175 million in state funds for, for this factory. that's $175 million taxpayer dollars to go towards Goshen,
Starting point is 00:26:11 $175 million taxpayer dollars, even though people have very legitimate concerns about the CCP alignment here. And when they had a hearing for it, that's when a lot of people were really very, very vocally slamming it. Now, keep in mind, too. And there have been a lot of people that have talked about this, including some congressmen who are who are from Michigan, who have noted that, and this is also, let me pull this up, this is a Wall Street journal piece that I have from my bookmarks. Chinese gate crashers at U.S. Bay spark espionage concerns. I mean, there have been about 100 incidents involving Chinese nationals trying to access American military and other installations. Now, it is completely
Starting point is 00:26:59 acceptable to question this and then question Goshen's parent company and question the goals that they have in coming to Michigan and why they're getting hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayer money to get started. I think it's perfectly acceptable
Starting point is 00:27:19 to do this. I mean, again, they Goshen, they sent their employees and this says, from, this is pulled this up. They sent their employees, this is Daily Caller. So Goshen, they had their employees go on these field trips. They were wearing Red Army outfits and pledging their lives to the CCP.
Starting point is 00:27:44 This is a real, I mean, this was back in August of last year. They were at the U.S.-based Goshen Company. So these are people in the U.S. dressing as Red Army soldiers during company field trips. there's photos and video of it. And it's even posted on Goshen's website. Goshen high tech power energy.
Starting point is 00:28:04 They ran multiple company field trips. They went to different some of them went to Communist Revolutionary memorials in China and they were wearing Red Army uniforms swearing to fight for communism to the end of their lives, etc., etc. Why is Goshen?
Starting point is 00:28:21 Because, I mean this is there, it's a so this subsidiary is a California based company still owned by the CCP, wholly owned and controlled, by the way, by the CCP. And they are looking, I mean, there's a lot of questions about this. Now, I'm bringing all of this up again because the media wants to make it look like Trump is trying to run off jobs in Michigan. Can you believe this? Trump is trying to. That's what the New York Times, I mean, I'm reading this piece and that's what it looks like. I mean, it's making it look like Trump is,
Starting point is 00:28:56 Trump and Vance are trying to cost taxpayers jobs. They're using this as a line of attack in Michigan against Trump and Vance. Harris wants to literally allow the CCP to come in and build this factory. This is like a crappy Belt and Road initiative. And in exchange for what, 2,300 jobs. You have American companies that could do this, but they're not getting the consideration. They're not getting the consideration at all. and by the way, the, it hasn't been well received in Michigan, that company.
Starting point is 00:29:33 Treasury Department per New York Times estimates that only 2% of the clean energy investments made in the United States during this previous administration have been made by Chinese companies. Huh. It's all American companies that have made the rest, that have done the rest of it, all of them. And some allies. Hmm. Interesting. Keep this in mind because this is going to be something that's going to I think boil over a little bit. Harris is walking back the EV mandate. She's holding a bit of an edge in Michigan.
Starting point is 00:30:05 And other Republicans, like Mike Rogers, was in Michigan, and he was condemning the creation of this plant. But the way that they're going to try to put it is this is Trump and Vance attacking jobs in Michigan. This is them trying to prevent jobs. This is them hitting out. They're going to try to make it and omit all of the CCP stuff that I have just spent the last, you know almost this whole supplement because I think this is an important topic explaining to you they're omitting all of this so keep this in mind and keep in mind too the messaging for it because if
Starting point is 00:30:37 Michigan Michigan is in play and is that how do you message that that's going to be I mean people like look people like the promises of stuff and when people need they're in a crunch period less consideration is going to be given to where the help comes from only that the help is coming that's something you've got to keep in mind. We got more on the way as we rolled awards days of these United States. And coming up, Jim Jordan's going to be joining us later on in the program. We're going to get into some of the tech stuff that they uncovered, particularly that Zuckerberg admission on being pressured by Biden and Harris to suppress speech. We're going to get into that.

Starting point is 00:32:37 A just-released housing index reveals just how rough the market is, especially for first-time home buyers. It showed home prices for the nation's top 20 metro areas rose 5.4% from June of last year to June of this year. a record jump for that month. And renters, not just homebuyers, are feeling a serious squeeze, especially in New York. Moody's found New Yorkers dedicated a whopping 58% of their income toward rent compared to 27% nationwide. And then you have these headlines, which we're going to talk about coming up from people saying, I just, you know, it's younger generations. They're questioning whether or not, you know, they can ever achieve the American dream.
Starting point is 00:33:20 whether or not they can ever afford the American dream. And it's really sad. It's super sad when you think about it. But that's, I mean, story after story, I just, I keep seeing this. And then you look at what this economy has done and look how expensive everything is. Housing prices. I mean, it's going to, what the hell do you think giving everybody $25,000 for a house is going to do to housing prices? If it's, let's do the math.
Starting point is 00:33:44 If it's jumping up, you had a 5.4% record jump. It's a rough market already. factor in $25,000 for people buying a house, especially if people who enter the country illegally. And you're giving away taxpayer dollars and you want to tax unrealized gains. That's going to affect everybody, by the way. That's not just for rich people.
Starting point is 00:34:07 That's for you. That's for middle class, all of us. It's for like, you know, people who are at every, either end of the spectrum on the economic scale, everybody is going to get hit. hit by it because it's not just stock and, you know, stock market and, and investments and things like that. It's everything. Everything you own. Your property. If you go everything. If you have something that you could make money off of, but you haven't made money off of it yet,
Starting point is 00:34:38 that's an unrealized gain. You're up for, that's up for grabs. But, you know, if you take a loss, the government's not going to give you any money for it. What is that going to do to all of this? what is that going to do to the housing market what's it going to do to investment you know we need in this country we desperately need several things we need more refineries and we need to be able to make chips and be able to produce a lot of this stuff whether it's antibiotics ourselves whether it's manufacturing these chips whatever it is and when you kill investment where do you think the capital is going to come to create and and establish these manufacturing bases in the United States. It doesn't just come out of the ether, right? Rich people don't just
Starting point is 00:35:21 like pull it out of their backsides. You know, this business. How do you think that that's going to happen? This is going to destroy absolutely everything. There is no way in hell that a low-tier last-place candidate from 2020 that Democrat voters would have rejected had she actually been on the ballot primary in caucuses across the country is now the nominee and they're going to fast-track her into making all of these decisions that are going to ruin your lives.

Channel 347 DirecTV, also at Substack Chapter and Verse. If you turn away a migrant, it is a grave sin. sayeth the popeth. That is new. It is new. It's all over everywhere. It was, he said, working to turn away migrants, working to turn migrants away from peace and security in a new country is a grave sin, he said. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:35 Hmm. That's the sin. So countries with laws have sins. I mean, give to Caesar what is Caesar's and give to God what is gods, but that might be a sin. I mean, it's only in the Bible and all. Yes, he says, if you are rejecting migrants and you're blocking their roots, it is a grave sin. And this was part of his address, his weekly address on Wednesday. And he, I think he was in the Vatican when he said this. So are we sending them all to the Vatican now? Is that what it is? I mean, let's just put it to
Starting point is 00:38:12 the test, right? He said, quote, working to turn migrants away from the prospect of peace and security in a new country is a grave sin. It needs to be said clearly. There are those who systematically work by all means to drive away migrants and this when done knowingly and deliberately is a grave sin. He was in St. Peter's Square, which you've got to go through a lot of security to get into, by the way. I mean, you have to go through a ton of security to get into the Vatican and to go see all the beautiful artwork that's in there. You know they lopped off all the statues, male copulatory organs, because it was considered... So they got a room full of, like, statue dong somewhere, I would imagine.
Starting point is 00:38:53 I'm not, I'm just saying... What? I'm talking about art, Kane. I just don't know why the expectation of following law when entering a sovereign nation is a sin. This is what I'm talking about. This is what is angering me. to the nth degree.
Starting point is 00:39:16 And I keep seeing it popping up in churches, and this Pope is no exception. This is wrong, by the way. I mean, follow the law. If you're not following the law, is that not a sin? Is that not also a sin? If you're not following the law,
Starting point is 00:39:30 if you are breaking into someone's home, is that, is that not a sin? If you're breaking into another country, is that not a sin? The way that these people present it, and I feel like some, And especially, there are a lot of church leaders out there. And I haven't turned away from my faith at all.
Starting point is 00:39:50 And I'm not going to stop going to church, but we're in the process of determining whether or not we're staying at our church or we're leaving. We didn't go last Sunday. We didn't attend it. Because I didn't really appreciate, you know, a church leader telling people that they wanted a safe and fair border. And I don't even know what that means. What do you mean a fair border?
Starting point is 00:40:13 Why don't you just say something smart like let's have You know lawful orderly crossings? Let's just do that and you know when I look at what this Pope is Is saying it's not unlike what you know my pastor was saying a couple of weeks ago And my pastor didn't go so far as to say it was a sin But he walked right up to the line He was right there toes to the line If you turn away people who are coming at the border it's a sin Well I've been to the border I've been to the border I've been to the border several
Starting point is 00:40:43 times. I've been down there to the processing centers. I've toured them. I have been down there at the bank of the Rio looking at the shell casings from when cartels were firing 50 cows at our border agents. I went and I saw the photos of children who had been dumped on the banks of the Rio and rescued by Border Patrol because the loopholes, the Flores Agreement, all of that exploited by the cartels to fast track people who are able to get. a part of that rent-a-kid operation. I've seen all of the stuff, all of the horrors that this creates. All of the rumors that you've heard about the border are true.
Starting point is 00:41:24 It's horrifying. And the innocent people who live in these border communities that are predominantly Hispanic, they're preyed upon. So I've just noticed that these religious leaders, all the people who say this, they're all white religious leaders. And I kind of question what they did in their youth. I called up one very well-known, very well-known. I don't want to put him on blast, although I think I have written about it. I did write about it in my book, Grace canceled. But I called up one very well-known
Starting point is 00:42:02 religious leader who had, during lockdown, conducted a Sunday service in their parking lot when they couldn't go indoors, and they did the whole bend-the-kne thing. And I called him, and I said, I just, I'm curious this to your angle here. And he was clearly taken aback and he was like, well, I don't understand what you mean. And he was very nice. And I feel in some respects, like he felt like he was doing it out of the goodness of his heart in a way. And he was saying, well, you know, when I grew up in East Texas, I saw a lot of very different
Starting point is 00:42:34 things. And he's old enough to be my father. And I said, look, I go, you need to understand something. When my generation was growing up and very specifically me, I didn't have this racial animosity that you all talk about. I didn't see it. It was not a part of our lives. And it wasn't because we didn't see it or didn't know what it was. We were, everybody was friends. Everybody was, we were all friends. Black and white and Asian. Everybody went to everybody's houses until the Marxist realized that maybe, just maybe they would have a better advantage
Starting point is 00:43:15 using things like culture and different sexual orientations as the wedge more so than socioeconomic statuses. And that's what they graviv-that's what they pivoted to. And then all of a sudden there was all of this animosity where there had not been animosity before. There was hard, there were hard feelings and lines drawn. And it had not been like that when we grew up. And I was telling this very famous pastor, I said, why are you trying to yoke younger generations to your moral failings? Your generations, or your specifically moral failings, if you've done something in your life, why should I or anyone else have to be yoked to it? I go, as a shepherd, you're building resentment in the hearts of your flock. Do you not see this? And you're creating
Starting point is 00:44:12 a hurdle to worship. It really made me angry. And as a mother, it enraged me. To have my kids sit there during Sunday service and be told that if they didn't want a free-for-all at the border, then they were somehow sinful, intimating that they were sinful? Isn't that, aren't you bearing false witness upon their characters, preachers?
Starting point is 00:44:42 If you don't want people to turn people away from organized religion, then stop doing it. the devil's work. I just, it's sad and it's infuriating. I know our churches are under attack. And I know that pastors are, are fallible people. I know this. But you work against the devil, not with him when you're talking about these things from the pulpit. And if you don't know it enough, then don't bring it up at the pulpit. I've literally sat there in church service before and I heard my pastor talk about
Starting point is 00:45:19 how more black people are shot by cops every year than white people. I'm like, that's actually a lie. I can tell where you go and you get your information for your sermons without even you telling me. I know where you go. I wrote an email and I had receipts
Starting point is 00:45:35 from the DOJ, from the FBI, local law enforcement from around the country. You can even divide it up in regions. It's just absolutely factually incorrect, which by the way, was my only beef with everybody taking a knee with the NFL. I don't mind peaceful protest.
Starting point is 00:45:51 My problem was they were doing it based on a lie. That was my only objection. And when I heard my pastor, and I know it's a lie because I've looked at the numbers. They're available on this thing called the internet that the good Lord gave us to use as a tool. I mean, enough people use the internet to go and lecture about what they think the facts are, but not enough of them actually use it to go and look at what the facts are. I sent all this stuff in an email, and that's when I got like one little, response back like, oh, well, thank you, blah, blah, blah. So I was like, okay, I'm going to have grace.
Starting point is 00:46:27 And I'm having grace by not name checking. And I have said things privately. And we have made overtures. And we have reached out and done all of this stuff. And I'm just, it's, you know, and to see the Pope say this, I'm not a fan of the Pope because I think he's a socialist. And I think socialism is antithetical to Christianity. Because socialism denies you free will. Why do government, why do tyrants think that they're that they're holier than God? God gives you free will. Socialists don't. And to see someone say, oh, well, you know, if you're turning away people at the border, that's a grave sin. To expect security and lawful entry, it's a grave sin. Okay, well, then stop turning people away from the Vatican if they don't have proper ID. Stop turning people away from
Starting point is 00:47:16 the Vatican if they don't want to have their bags checked. Stop turning people away from the Vatican if their shoulders aren't covered or their knees aren't covered. How about that? stop turning away people at the Vatican. That's a sin. I mean, we can do this all day. Someone else's political issue, they think someone has a political issue and they think they mistake that as somebody else's sin
Starting point is 00:47:40 if they don't agree with them. That's where we're going at, going to. I want you to realize that. They're trying to emotionally blackmail Christians by thinking that if you disagree with them, you are committing a grave sin. If you are not in lockstep with Marxist ideology, then you are creating a great sin.
Starting point is 00:48:00 If you do not believe in lawlessness and disorder, then you are creating a great sin. There have been a lot of people all throughout the centuries who wear the robes, and they carry the cross, and they sell the books on the good book, and they stand up at the pulpit, and they say a lot of great things in the name of the Lord, but I'm going to tell you what, even the devil can cite scripture, ye workers of inequity, I never knew thee.
Starting point is 00:48:33 So I'm getting real tired of this stuff. Getting really tired of it. And it's not one denomination or another. It's all of them. It is poor representation. Shepherds, do your jobs. You have a higher penalty, according to the New Testament. Don't mislead.
Starting point is 00:48:58 don't misrepresent. I get it why some people in church are so terrified to talk about politics. You shouldn't be. If you are doing your best to speak fact
Starting point is 00:49:13 and truth, I've always said, show me the fact, and if I am incorrect, if I am incorrect, I will modify my position. I'm not a zealot for lies. But I'm telling you, it is this is what's tearing down the church, stuff like this. And here's the thing. There are people who are not even political who don't want to see pastors talk about this stuff because it gets to say, oh, I want a safe and fair border. What does it even mean? How about I want lawfulness and order? Because that does provide safety. And it creates safety for everybody involved. And that is what is truly fair. There's nothing wrong.
Starting point is 00:50:08 and saying that. I'm still not even done with this issue, but that's what was said in St. Peter's Square today. And probably in some of your churches this Sunday. And again, it's not one denomination or another. I know our church is under attack, but the shepherds have to, they have to be able to hear. We got a lot more on the way as we roll into headlines. And as we do so, our partners that will bring you free radio, the people over at Readywise, because when sweet meteor of death hits this planet, it if for some strange mathematical twist it doesn't obliterate it and we are still stuck on half of a crumpled rock you're going to need to have your survival meals ready or I don't know maybe you have like rolling brownouts or blackouts or whatever maybe it's you know it's a natural disaster if it's not a political one having emergency food from ready wise gives you peace of mind you're going to be able to feed your family no matter the situation it's free and fast shipping on most orders your provisions are going to reach you promptly they have two offers for you.

Starting point is 00:52:03 as a disabling horse virus that kills one in three has run rampant. This is one of the craziest stories that I've ever read. It's actually a half a dozen communities that have been designated as higher critical risk for this illness. There was a guy who tested positive for it earlier this month. And it's Eastern equine encephalitis. It is rare, but a potentially deadly virus that was first identified in horses. And so it's called EEEE or Triple E. It can be spread to people by mosquitoes.
Starting point is 00:52:37 Again, why do we have them? It can be spread to people by mosquitoes. The CDC says about 30% of those who are infected. It is a fatality. They said 10 counties in Massachusetts were placed on a high alert. And there was a guy who was 80s. It sounds like, you know, if you're older or if you, again, you've got immunity issues. But it's in Massachusetts.
Starting point is 00:52:56 That's where they were looking at at this point. New York City is. spraying pesticides to help prevent the spread of mosquitoes and potential diseases. I'm totally fine with pesticides, cane. Love pesticides. They just need to stop throwing mosquitoes on top of us. That's what they need to stop doing. I mean, why do we have them?
Starting point is 00:53:13 All of the things that science looks at, like, I don't need to study why. I don't need to study lesbian obesity. Or what happens if you give squirrels crack. I don't need that. What I need is why do we have mosquitoes, kill them all? They don't, can anybody prove to me why they are required? No, you can't. So New York City is increasing.
Starting point is 00:53:31 pesticides. Increased sausage demand could be a worrying signal in the economy. Kane thinks that they're pushing this sausage story because they can grind anything into it and say that it's meat and convincing us that there's a demand for it. And that's Kane's tinfoil hat moment. Stick with us. I agree with Annie Oakley who said, quote, I would like to see every woman know how to handle guns as naturally as they know how to handle babies. Now, I myself regularly concealed carry nine millimeter. Now that said, not every woman is like me, has had the hours of training that I've had, or feels comfortable around firearms due to years of use, or maybe they're by a gun-free zone. I'd like to change that what I can while encouraging self-defense at the same time. So this is where Berna comes in. It's kind of like a starter weapon. It's, they make a non-firearm firearm firearm.

Support our young ladies and not allow any boys in their locker rooms or on their sports team. Okay, so we have a motion on the floor, as Chad Trustee Green has stated.
Starting point is 00:55:16 Do we have a second? And do you want, I just declare. I know if Ms. Pierce wanted to make sure the motion. That we support our young ladies and not allow boys. That's a young men that have a, that have DNA, that is boy DNA, not be allowed in the locker rooms or on the sports team competing against young ladies. So that's the motion. And there's, do we have a second for that motion?
Starting point is 00:55:43 So there's no second. We'll go ahead and die. I'm going to die. All right. We'll move in on to our last speaker. So that's McKinney ISD. That's McKinney School in Texas, where they had the school board. They introduced a motion that was not seconded to keep boys from going into girls' sports
Starting point is 00:56:05 and keep them from going into girls' locker rooms. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. That's, I'm telling you, you need to take your kids out of McKinney, ISD, if they are in it. Because that's, I mean, to have something like that happen and the silence, I mean, as you hear, seconded, nobody, nobody even wanted to second it. Why is that such a big issue? And when you consider, too, some of these boys in high school, they might be 18 where they'll have a 14-year-old girl there. I mean, let's talk about some of the statutory implications of that.
Starting point is 00:56:45 I mean, there's no interest in protecting our kids. There's none. I'm looking for pulling this. This is this school sent a letter to the parents in response of the school board meeting, right? Via Sierra Fields. They write McKinney ISD parents and guardians. They said they were talking about this school board meeting, which was just two days ago. They said trustee Chad Green proposed a motion to support our young ladies and not. allow boys who have boy DNA not be allowed in locker rooms or on a sports teams competing against young ladies. They said it didn't receive a second because, you know, the guidelines and you know, McKinney ISD female students are already protected. To take further action would have violated the law. Passing a frivolous and meaningless emotion was unnecessary because protections are already in place. Not really. And first off, the concern that they that they put up is not necessarily true.
Starting point is 00:57:53 That's what they've all been saying as a way to sidestep the issue, silence parents, et cetera. And there's the block that's on, when they talk about the protections, that the title nine stuff, the block on those changes that Biden made is a temporary one.
Starting point is 00:58:13 So when they cite protections, it is a temporary protection. this is still ongoing. So it's not meaningless to say that. Schools can and need to have their own protections in place. Because what happens if, you know, Biden's, what happens if this is allowed to go through? You know? I mean, what is it?
Starting point is 00:58:41 If it's allowed to go through if what Biden had pushed for in, remember, he wanted to go after any kind of federal funding for any kind of educational institution that did not allow for boys to go on girls' teams and be in the locker rooms and all that stuff. And Texas was litigating this, et cetera. And by the way, these are multiple schools that are allowing this. I mean, it's not just, it's not just, you know, this school is not the only one. There are several that are like this. And they said that, you know, the law as it is, you know, they can't, you can't force a school to adopt such a thing, but the schools can choose to do so unless the parents oppose it. The federal government under this administration has been trying to coer schools into doing this by Hank dangling as the
Starting point is 00:59:33 carrot federal funding. So when they, the title that Biden had instituted for this, that was temporarily blocked, and again, that's a temporary block, this can still happen. This isn't a done deal. So the letter that the school sent out is not entirely honest, as you would imagine, right? And that's in McKinney. Can you know where McKinney is? It's in Texas. McKinney. It's time to pull your kids out of this.
Starting point is 01:00:09 It is. It's time. I'm just, it's time to pull your kids out of this stuff out of these schools if they're doing this. It's, it is that our tax dollars forcibly go to the stuff. stuff that facilitate predatory behavior against women and girls is just wild. There are a couple of parents that told me that they had just moved out of that area. And they can say that, you know, they've noticed like a lot of people who have fled California and they are bringing a lot of that momentum with them there.
Starting point is 01:00:39 But man. And that's, it's like that, what is it, the McKinney Prosper Frisco area. Hmm. And I don't think it was. Someone asked if it was grandstanding to get a viral video. I really don't think it was. Again, it's a temporary block, i.e. It is a temporary protection.
Starting point is 01:01:00 So unless schools do something individually to protect students, if that is allowed to stand, then there isn't going to be any protections for these students. Now that kids are going back to school, all of this stuff now is coming back up to light. It's all like the protests and everything else and because it's an election cycle. I don't think it's a fun time to be a student on campus. Do you, Kane? I really don't think it is. No, not a same one. Well, yeah. I mean, it's just not, it's not fun. It's not fun to be a kid like this on campus, I don't think. I feel bad for a lot of students. Like, for instance, this Colorado School District, this is in, this is from Daily Caller.
Starting point is 01:01:42 They, now everybody's going back to school. They're not going to allow students to opt out of alphabet lessons, LGBTQ plus, regardless of parents' wishes. A Colorado school district is implementing the alphabet toolkit, and it's forcing students to attend lessons on related topics, even if the parents disapprove. It was created by the Denver School District, updated in July. It prohibits students from opting out of these lessons in curriculum. It doesn't matter if you have different beliefs. You're going to be forced into it. And it's about sex. It's lessons on sex. It's about how same-sex people have it. That's what they're talking about. They're forcing your kids to sit through pornography. and I don't get it.
Starting point is 01:02:24 Why are they so obsessed with this? This isn't educational. Not educational at all. They're like, oh, we'll make sure it's age appropriate. Really, you're the people who put gender queer in elementary school libraries. People don't believe me when I say this. They honestly, like actual, like moderate Republicans didn't even believe it. It started in Texas when a parent first discovered that book.
Starting point is 01:02:48 That's crazy. a 12-year-olds or 13-year-olds library and elementary can access it and it literally was a graphic novel
Starting point is 01:02:59 that showed well I can't even say on air what it showed because I would probably get in trouble Kane right I can't we can't even show the images because if I showed these images on Facebook
Starting point is 01:03:10 actually when we've tried they do monetize my videos and they issue a strike against my account I can't even show it on Facebook but they can show your underage kids in school. And they consider that to be educational. And it is nothing more than gratuitous graphic sex.
Starting point is 01:03:27 That's all it is. There's no literary value to it. There's nothing. I mean, honestly, I think that probably Playboy had better articles. You know what I'm saying? I mean, there's no value to it at all whatsoever. It's, it's, this is just, you're forcing this in kids' faces so that they're just shell-shocked by it and you can't, that's, that's, that's all it is. They're forcing, they're forcing them to acclimate to it, regardless of whether or not parents agree. And the Denver school district
Starting point is 01:03:58 doesn't require the parental consent either with, with any of this stuff. They're like, oh, it's our commitment to equity and inclusion. What, what about, look, I don't even want, I don't want any kind of sexual material like that taught to underage kids in the classroom. Because, they're not tell it's not a biological they're not approaching it from a biological standpoint like this is where children how children are created or this is how which that at least serves a purpose they're like this is how this is how this is how men's bodies work and how women's bodies work no they disregard science and it's all about fetish it is nothing more than an educational or not it's fetish education that's all it is it is and i and i and i just i kind of wonder if the people
Starting point is 01:04:44 if the people pushing this on kids are you getting off on this No, that's not too forward. To ask when you're talking about introducing books that show pegging in the classroom. Don't Google that. People did not believe how bad the photos were or how bad the illustrations were. And that's not, that's just one book. There are others. And then there's, you know, like the written word that get really graphic with stuff.
Starting point is 01:05:17 And that, again, that has nothing to do. do with education. Why is this, why is this like the hill that these people want to fight on? I mean, I've got suspicions, but good night. But now that everybody's going back to school, this is all up again. UPenn is hosting gender equity orientation for freshmen. Can you say freshmen? Can you say freshmen anymore? Fresh persons from campus reform. This piece is orientation focusing on providing a safe. space for first year students of marginalized genders, you mean make belief and their allies to share their experiences and continue to grow. So it's gender equity. It's a freshman pre-orientation program.
Starting point is 01:06:10 I don't see how this is about, this isn't about creating safe spaces. This is again about shoving it in your face. It's bringing fetish out. That's all it is. Historically marginalized genders. the thing with all of this, the language and the approach to this. No one cared until you tried to penalize people for pronoun usage. No one cared until you started demanding that their underage children be exposed to you lecturing them about how you'd like to get off. Nobody cared until you made it an issue. It wasn't about living your life. It was about making them be participants in it. that's when it became an issue. People started marginalizing themselves
Starting point is 01:07:02 by acting like a marginalized subset of society that is obsessed with talking to kids about their fetishes. That's when it became an issue. Trying to get people fired because they wanted to say things like women are real, stop acting like we're not real. Trying to get people fired for that is when it became an issue.
Starting point is 01:07:22 It wasn't an issue until then. So people who subscribe to this wanted to pick a fight with everyone else. And then when everyone else started objecting, then they wanted to act like they were marginalized. It doesn't go both ways. You're the bullies. You're the jackasses. It's you. It's not us.
Starting point is 01:07:44 Patriot Mobile is the only Christian conservative cell phone service. And if you don't care about that because you're broke like most Americans, they're going to save you more money than what you're saving now. you're going to pay less with Patriot Mobile than with your big commie cell phone service. And that's just because they charge less. I mean, they don't have to charge to pay all of the donations to all of the Marxist stuff that they have. Patriot Mobile, like I said, they've got great plans, great coverage on all three major networks. So you're getting the best service in your area and you're not funding the left. And when you switch, you're helping to support U.S.-based jobs.
Starting point is 01:08:17 All of their whole team is 100% U.S.-based. They make it so easy to switch. You can keep your phone, keep your number, upgrade. The choice is yours. And you can also get a free month of service right now using offer code Dana, which also gets you free activation. So why, on God's Green Earth, would you work with a Marxist cell phone company that actually works against you? Donates to the stuff that you vote against, protects and advocates for the stuff that you fight against. Why would you not switch to Patriot Mobile?
Starting point is 01:08:43 My gosh, they love Jesus. They love America. They love guns. And they want to save you money for crying out loud. Just call them already for the love of God. PatriotMobil.com slash Dana. 972 Patriot. Use code Dana, free activation, free month of service.
Starting point is 01:08:58 It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man. All right, so first up, just like Kane says, old people aren't innocent. That's what he says. An elderly Florida man pulled a knife on a manager at Swank, New Jersey eatery. Swank. 75-year-old man from Florida was arrested Thursday night. after allegedly pulling a knife on another restaurant patron and assaulting the manager at the Red Horse in Rumson, according to authorities.
Starting point is 01:09:33 The resident of Palm Beach Shores, David Gulley, faces multiple charges, including aggravated assault possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, terroristic threats, disorderly conduct, simple assault. That's according to the Rumsville Police Lieutenant. It was the Red Horse Restaurant, and there's a celebrity chef that owns it, I guess, and the general manager had asked, Is there a knife? There's like video of it. But there's a lot of fun words in there that. That Juan can't hear because he's innocent. And so they, I mean, they literally watched the guys.
Starting point is 01:10:05 Police showed up. The gully guy, like punching the restaurant manager with a knife in his hand. He was taken into custody without further incident. They're still investigating. Do you know why? It's real simple. He had a knife and he hit someone. There you go.
Starting point is 01:10:19 Case closed. Wow. We've solved it. A man turns himself in after he... It's an oldie but a goodie, I missed this. A man turns himself in after murdering his imaginary friend. Jeff Gaylord from Florida turned himself into police and demanded they give him the death penalty. After he admitted to... I'm not making this up.
Starting point is 01:10:43 After he admitted to murdering his imaginary friend, Mr. Happy. He told officers he had stabbed Mr. Happy to death with a knife, cut up Mr. Happy's body with a hatchet, and buried him in the backyard. Jacksonville officers took a drunk Gayle. Lord into custody and got a search warrant for his house. Gaylord said that he had killed Mr. Happy because he was messy. And then he told officers, Ossifers, his room was a mess all the time with his toys and his dolls. And then he left his empty vodka bottles all over the kitchen. And he never picked up his empty cocaine baggies. And it was Mr. Happy who left the toilet seat down when he peed. He messed up
Starting point is 01:11:19 my apartment to the point where I just couldn't get it clean. You know what it kind of sounds like? it sounds like he was going to get busted for drugs anyway and decided to make up a story. I'm beginning to think that it wasn't Mr. Happy's cocaine and empty vodka bottles, but in fact Mr. Gaylord's cocaine baggies and empty vodka
Starting point is 01:11:37 bottles. Oh, they also found a machine gun at his house. That's Mr. Happy. No, I think that one was his. He's like, yeah, it's probably mine. Because, you know, I'm... Oh, boy. That's probably one of my favorite ones.
Starting point is 01:11:52 This woman looks crazy. She's a vest. Oh, she is. Oh. Okay, so. Oh, no, it's never anybody that you would want to see. 56-year-old Grace Sharp got arrested for walking around outside naked during her neighbor's birthday party, according to an arrest report. The incident happened Sunday along Fowler Avenue in Pensacola as her neighbor was having a birthday party, according to the report.
Starting point is 01:12:18 The report stated that the neighbor told deputies around 7 p.m. as sharp pictured in the simulcast, walked up naked to the chain link fence that separates the properties, and she was reportedly waving around plastic doll legs, and then she rubbed the plastic doll legs on her private lady area, and then the neighbor made the kids go inside. According to the report, when the neighbor told Sharp that she was naked, Sharp said, I know it's hot outside, quote, end quote. She eventually went back inside her home when deputies were cowled. Sharp remains in this Cambay County Jail on $2,500 bond. Any questions about that one? I do have one. She knows who Nellie is.
Starting point is 01:12:57 The plastic doll legs. Like Barbie-sized? What is that? Like, where does one, I mean, what size? I got to know. Stay tuned. We got Jim Jordan coming up next hour. I'm just trying to understand where we are right now because yesterday the Trump campaign very clearly put out a statement said they agreed to the same rules as took place in the June debate between President Biden and Donald Trump where they were muted microphones.
Starting point is 01:13:21 Have you not agreed to muted microphones? I think we've made pretty clear. Our preference, along with Donald Trump himself, is for unmuted microphones. I think the question that you'd have to ask is to Donald Trump and his team. Are they in agreement between themselves on how we should approach this debate? That was one of her surrogates. Kamala Harris' surrogates. Welcome to the program.
Starting point is 01:13:46 Top of the third hour. We've got Congressman Jim Jordan who's going to be down at the bottom of this hour. Dana, I'll share with you. Make sure you find us on Rumble. It's where the chat is happening. We also have substack. We got all kinds of good stuff happening. Chapter reverse over at Substack X, Channel 347, Direct TV.
Starting point is 01:14:07 We've got the McGuroyne folks over on Rumble. Got a lot of stuff happening. I want you to keep the, so the debate stuff in mind, I was thinking how I was going to start this segment. So let me preface it with this. So Kamala Harris, they've, she's finally, you know, they got the debate coming up there. They've been going back and forth over muted mics. She also yesterday. agreed to do a sit-down interview
Starting point is 01:14:33 with Dana Bash over at CNN. She's finally going to do it. Going to sit-down interview. She's going to have the interview. With that hard-hitting journalist? It's going to be pre-taped. And she's going to have Mike Wals there. Tim Wals. Sorry. All the same person.
Starting point is 01:14:49 Tim Walls there. You know what it reminded me of? One of the funniest movies I've ever seen. It's a little cinematic masterpiece called Step Brothers. And in Step Brothers, you have 39-year-old Brennan Huff and 49-year-old Dale Doback. So Brennan and Dale, their parents, the other grown men who have never actually aged beyond being teenagers, their parents get together and they have a blended family and it's hysterical. And they are told at one point, you guys.
Starting point is 01:15:28 got to go out and get jobs because they they don't work they're like in their 30s in the show they don't work and they go out and get a job or they well they try to they go and they do job interviews and they decide okay we're going for a job let's wear tucks it's going to make it real fancy we're going to wear tuxes they show up together for their job interview Brennan and Dale sitting there interviewing for a job and it reminds me of Kamala Harris and Tim Wals they're pulling a stepbrothers Brennan and Dale move by sitting down and having a, that's what it is. It's kind of like a job interview in a way together on CNN. That's what they're doing.
Starting point is 01:16:10 How is that going to work out? Is he going to offer her Doritos when they're sitting there? So she can't do a live interview. It has to be she's doing a pre-taped interview with one of the more inoffensive anchors on CNN. And Tim Walls is going to be sitting there with her. Does that sound like a candidate that's confident? They also said Tim Walls is going to be doing any interviews by himself. So take from that what you will. But does that sound like a candidate that is confident? Does it sound like a party that is confident in their candidate? No. It sounds absolutely goofy.
Starting point is 01:17:01 Okay, she's going to sit down with Tim Wall. She can't do it by herself. That's, I mean, doesn't that not sound exactly like what they're talking about, Kane? I mean, it exactly sounds like that. I am, I first heard this and I thought, wait, what? She can't do it by herself. I loved Carol Ross response to this, where it's like, it's like when you go on an interview you and you bring your parents along with you.
Starting point is 01:17:36 Yeah. And you're like, okay, not sure I'm going to hire this one. And you know what? We shouldn't hire her either. It's exactly like that. It is entirely exactly like that. I mean, it's, I don't know. So we're going to see how well that, I mean, I think it already happened, but it's
Starting point is 01:17:55 tomorrow. It's going to air tomorrow. Or I think it happens today. I think they pre-taped it today, but it's going to air tomorrow. and I guess we'll see how well it goes, but I, it's just going to, I don't know, it's, it's, it's, I don't think you're going to get any like clear answers. I think where she struggles, I think he is going to probably step in. And it, it's also going to take some of the heat off her because they're going to sit there and then you, because Tim Walz is there, obviously you're going to have to
Starting point is 01:18:25 ask him. And I think Dana Bash will. I mean, she's a lefty for sure. but I also think that she is somebody who I don't think she I don't I don't know if she's like in the Harris camp or not but she is a lefty and I don't think that she has any loyalty to Tim Walls I don't think he's been in this at this level long enough for any of these reporters to have that although Democrats are really good about like faking manufacturing loyalty because you know they want to win and power you know at all cost doesn't matter so the attention that he would take from her is going to come by way of Dana Bash saying, well, what about, you know, you misrepresented your service or you know, you made the snitch line, but you're telling everyone to quote unquote mind their own damn business or this or that. That's
Starting point is 01:19:12 his, I mean, both of them have insane baggage. But his is also so bad, it's kooky, right? And he's a kooky character. I don't like kooky characters like this. You know what kind of kooky
Starting point is 01:19:28 characters I like? I like, I like Audio Summit 1, please. This is what I'm talking about. I like kooky characters like this. Go ahead. And you have ballot harvesting, but you also have people getting ballots. I mean, in California, you have people getting seven ballots. If Jesus came down and was the vote counter, I would win California, okay? If we had an honest vote counter, I would win California. He may not be wrong. I mean, I know that there's a lot of Democrats. are all of the Republicans, from what I understand from my friends who live in California, all of my, this is funny, all of my friends who live in California, they're all Republican,
Starting point is 01:20:08 and they all live, like, literally within blocks of each other. Do you know that, Kay, like, all the friends that we know, all the people we know, they all live in this, like, in the same town, all right by each other. It is hysterical. They're all, like, they're all concentrated right in, like, Orange County or a Simi, Simi Valley. That's it. Or some of the, some of the independent ones are in, I don't know, where Bigfoot and weed is. Where's that at? The Pacific Northwest? No, in California. It's up by the bigfoot's in the weeds. The weed growers and the big foots. Big feet, big foot. How does that
Starting point is 01:20:45 work? Is it weed, California? No, I'm only concerned about the pluralization of multiple versions of a big foot. Like if it's more than one big foot, is it big foots, big feats? Or Is it a singular plural bigfoot? We got to solve this anyway. But there's some up there that are... Is it Biggs foot? And then they're up there with the weed farms. Or, wait a minute.
Starting point is 01:21:06 Sidebar. And I'm going to come back to this. I'm going to get back on point real quick. Are there really no big foot? There's not a Bigfoot population up there. And it's just the people that are high. And they think they see Bigfoot. Also that could be that.
Starting point is 01:21:20 But either way, they're kind of more independence up there. So long story short, I don't know if that is actually. actually true. Although I do think that Jesus, if he came down, he would probably do more than count votes. Just saying, I'm here to count votes for the Lord, which I'm not like pretending to be Jesus, but I'm just saying, like, which among you has cast your lot for God? That's what he'd be doing. But I do think it's kind of interesting. Can we touch on this really quickly? Audio Sound by 3. I have a post up about this. We talked about this yesterday over at Substack. This is RFK Jr. to this? I'm going to work to get them elected. And, you know, I'm working with the campaign. We're
Starting point is 01:22:01 working on policy issues together. I will, I've been asked to go onto the transition team. And, you know, to help pick the people who will be running the government. And I'm, I'm looking forward to that. So this is the question that I asked in the piece that I, I, I, I made mention this yesterday, and then I wrote a piece about this yesterday, too, over at Substack, if you're one of the subscribers. How, you know, there's this Republican habit of rushing to coronate, you know, the, the newest celebrity who was like maybe on the left is, you know, Reagan Jesus. You know, here's your crown. So he's been right on the COVID vaccines, right? He's been right on the COVID vaccines, but he's been wrong on guns and, you know, due process and climate change and all this other stuff.
Starting point is 01:22:53 and I've written about that extensively, which I've linked over on my substack, if you want to go and read it, I don't want to get into it right now. But my point is that he likes Trump and he endorsed Trump's campaign, and that's all well and good, because there's coalition. But that doesn't make him more amenable on climate change, and it doesn't make him more likely to support you owning however many guns that you want to own, right? It just means that he of Harris and Trump, between the two, he likes Trump. and on that we agree, right? He can compartmentalize this, but some people on the right cannot. And I get it, people are very excited about this, to the point where they were already, this is what I was telling Kane about yesterday.
Starting point is 01:23:34 They were already drawing up, like Kennedy's potential appointments or how he was going to work with the campaign. So he and Tulsi Gabbard are already now on the transition team. And they're picking people who are going to determine policy. and I'm thinking, okay, determine what policy? So do you, I mean, he's a pretty strong believer in the climate change stuff. And he is a pretty strong supporter of like the Green New Deal stuff. Are we talking like that kind of?
Starting point is 01:24:06 I just heard him say he was going to be part of helping decide who's in charge. Yeah. Well, and he's going to bring his ideological. I mean, he may, but I mean, he's only one of the spokes in the wheel that are in that decision making. and that's the way I look at it. But he's in the decision-making process. Yeah. A guy who wants to jail people who deny that climate change is real.
Starting point is 01:24:30 And the other spokes in the wheel will probably not agree with that. Probably? I'm assuming they won't. You are very optimistic about our government, sir. I am not. So you're going to attribute RFK Jr's stance with the other spokes in the wheel that are actually... No, I'm attributing his stance to the decision. that he makes. Yeah. And I'm attributing his perspective to how he is going to influence the
Starting point is 01:24:56 potential next president to hire. Yeah. That's what I'm attributing it to. And I don't think his influence would be at a level where everyone else's influence wouldn't matter. I don't know about that. I'm pretty sure about that. You are, see, I guess I'm more American than you because I don't trust my government at all. I am half Mexican, but I am 100% American. You're white adjacent, sir. Wide adjacent. That's right. No.
Starting point is 01:25:22 And proud. No, you're sorry, you're Latinx. Isn't that how it is? Do not. Do not. Do you even. Don't even. Oh, that's disgusting.
Starting point is 01:25:33 So you make my mom mad by talking about Social Security. You can make Canemad by referring to him as Latinx. Which actually sounds, can I just be real, like a cool band name. Like you're a one-man band. Anyway, my whole point is that I, coalitions don't have to agree on everything. And I think partnerships like that are necessary to overcoming Marxism like we see it.
Starting point is 01:25:53 But that doesn't mean that they, different parties exchange members to help each other determine their party's policy. You know, building coalitions doesn't mean that you hand the car keys to people who don't share your views on liberty. There was a listener who I thought made a great point. You know, it's, you know, you want an open tent
Starting point is 01:26:11 but not open borders. Absolutely. And that's, I think that is, because anything else, else is not coalition building. That's Policide. So you should read the piece that I have. I got a lot of links up there over at chapter inverse. In the meantime, we got Jim Jordan coming up. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. So according to Sky News, an Austrian surgeon got in trouble because he allowed his teenage daughter to drill a hole in a patient skull. The victim first read about the case in the media and only was told by
Starting point is 01:26:44 police months later that it was him that the teenage girl was said to have helped operate on. This guy was in a forestry accident and he was flown by air ambulance to this hospital in southwestern Austria. He had injuries. He needed emergency surgery, but the doctor let the 13-year-old daughter take part. This is not a bring your daughter to work kind of day activity. And it took that long. Somebody blew the whistle on it and the victim learned about the case in the media. And he just, I mean, can you imagine? That's just shocking. thing. That is, I can't, good night. A woman faces charges after climbing into a zoo tiger's enclosure. Why do people keep doing this? Why? So this woman climbed into this tiger enclosure in
Starting point is 01:27:28 New Jersey and she is trespassing for allegedly entering a fenced-off area, taunting and trying to entice one of the zoo's two Bengal tigers. And a second wire fence separated her from the tiger. the tiger tried to bite her and apparently she did the same thing at a bear exhibit I think she needs to be barred from ever going to the zoo because do not sit here and euthanize these animals after they were
Starting point is 01:27:52 taunted and enticed by this balloon but good night they said it was against city ordinance etc etc yeah they just need to like deny her entry to any place where there's animals she seems like a nut oh boy no I don't want to listen
Starting point is 01:28:08 a bald eagle is believe that was thought to be injured in Missouri, instead was just too fat to fly. According to wildlife officials, he apparently ate, ate roadkill and apparently ate up a raccoon, and x-ray showed the raccoon paws in his stuff. It's gross. You don't want to see it. I had to see it. But they're making them lose weight so that he can fly again.
Starting point is 01:28:29 It's the funniest thing I've ever read. Congressman Jim Jordan next. Brighten up your timely news consumption with the Dana Show podcast, where every update comes with a little dash of not so soon. on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts. Yeah, it is a really good question. In many ways, this plays directly into this narrative that Republican lawmakers have been spreading that big tech companies censor the viewpoints of conservatives.
Starting point is 01:28:56 There's not a ton of evidence of that, but a lot of what, you know, Zuckerberg is saying in this letter sort of does play into that narrative. And you already see Republican lawmakers celebrating this saying that it's proof that the Biden-Harris administration tried to censor conservative. conservative voices and pressure big tech companies. Who knows better about the inner workings of meta and Facebook suppression? The rando analyst at CNN or Mark Zuckerberg who sent a letter to our next guest, Congressman Jim Jordan from Ohio's beautiful fourth district. Congressman, it is so good to see you.
Starting point is 01:29:27 You got this letter from the man in question. He admitted that all of the stuff that has been said was accurate. And what I thought was interesting, it seemed to indicate that because everyone always blamed the moderators, the fact checkers at Facebook, which they are culpable. But the pressure from the Biden-Harris administration was more intense, and that drove this suppression. What do you make, how do you react to that soundbite?
Starting point is 01:29:54 No, no, no. Well, that's exactly what happened. He admits Mr. Zuckerberg convinced the letter four key facts. One is he said the Biden-Harris administration pressured him to censor, largely conservatives. There was censorship all over and all our investigation, but largely conservatives. He succumbed to that. They actually did censor. Third, they throttled back the Hunter Biden laptop story, which was critical, I think, to the 2020 presidential race, not that
Starting point is 01:30:19 information not getting out like it should have got now. And then fourth, he says he's not going to spend any Zuckerbachs. He's not going to try to influence and send money to these boards of elections around the country in key precincts, key areas, key cities. He's no longer going to do that. So I thought those were four key facts. And I think his motivation was the fact that we have been doing a year and a half long investigation data. We've deposed 12 different employees at Facebook from line level people all the way up to Sir Nick Clegg, the number three guy, former deputy prime minister in Great Britain, number three guy at Meta. So we've done that. We weren't going to stop. And I think he said, let's just lay out the facts and get that out there. So he sent us that
Starting point is 01:30:59 letter. And of course, it kind of confirmed what we all suspected and saw was going on. Do you believe him when he said that he wanted to be more neutral or at least not have a role like that in the next election? I do kind of feel like at least I think Silicon Valley a number of people are saying, wait a minute, where the left is going and attacking the First Amendment specifically free speech rights. I think many of them are saying like let's let's not go there. And maybe his maybe his motivation is simply he didn't want to hassle. But you got Elon Musk who's been tremendous. God bless him. He came forward, his purchase of Twitter and his full-fledged, you know, a full court defense of the First Amendment, I think it's just been so, so helpful. You've got others in Silicon Valley's getting the same thing. So I think there's somewhat of a shift happening because we see how radical the left is and what they want to do to our, you know, to our fundamental liberty. Yeah. I've noticed, too, and I'm going to come back to this because I know everyone's talking about, you know, well, what are the ramifications of this? What are the penalties? But you mentioned, you know, free speech is under attack you, the telehealth.
Starting point is 01:32:03 founder who was arrested and not because, you know, anybody can you, you can't offer secure protections like that to people with that kind of platform without offering them to everyone. And it just makes me wonder, well, anybody can use any medium to scam anyone. I don't know why he would be held more responsible than a telecom company or anybody else that offers any kind of, you know, service like that. But it is, he wouldn't bend the knee. He wouldn't suppress speech in other nations. Interestingly enough, NATO nations cracking down on this stuff. I mean, it, it, it, it, It does kind of make you wonder, are they starting to see how bad this is getting and that their businesses may not be their own to run anymore? I mean, that's one of the reasons Facebook, to their credit, never been to need in China.
Starting point is 01:32:47 And China had to have its own CCP-friendly Facebook version. Well, I think people are waking up to how big this threat is. There's a reason why RFK Jr. endorsed President Trump last week. He said in his announcement the same thing he said when we add him in as a witness in one of our hearings. He said when you look at history, he said, the good guys aren't the ones who are advocating censorship. They're not the ones for censorship. And he said the same thing when he endorsed President Trump last week. So remember, RFK Jr. was censored the third day of the Biden Harris administration.
Starting point is 01:33:24 There's an email from the executive office of the presidency. Clark Humphrey sends an email to Twitter and it says, this is January 23rd. 2021. It says take down this tweet ASAP. And the tweet had three sentences in it, that Hank Aaron got the vaccine. Hank Aaron passed away after taking the vaccine. He did so as a way to, he got the vaccine as a way to encourage black Americans to get vaccine. Three sentences, all of them true, but the Biden administration was trying to take down that tweet because they didn't like what it conveyed about the vaccine and vaccine hesitancy and all this stuff. So this is how scary it gets. And you add to,
Starting point is 01:34:01 what they were doing, they were going after their political opponent, for goodness sake. That's not supposed to happen in a country with the First Amendment. That's not supposed to happen in America. So I do think more and more people are saying, wait a minute, we got to stop this. And as I said before, God bless Elon Musk and his purchase Twitter and what he's doing to defend the First Amendment. Talking with Congressman Jim Jordan, a lot of people are wondering, well, what are the penalties going to be?
Starting point is 01:34:26 Because we had Missouri v. Biden, or it was Murthy v. Missouri. The Supreme Court's not going to, they're not going to weigh in and enforce any kind of penalties for this sort of federal pressure on these tech companies. So what do we do? Well, remember, that case, well, it wasn't the outcome you and I wanted. And like we got in the lower court, which said clearly that the government was pressuring big tech and they were censoring conservative. That case got remanded back. They're going to look at the facts. I think, I still think we got a good chance with that case later on.
Starting point is 01:34:57 But obviously wasn't the decision we wanted from the Supreme Court. We just keep doing what we're doing. We make, remember, the disinformation governance sport that they tried to form, they got rid of that. Garm, this organization that was pressuring all kinds of companies not to advertise, probably probably doing it to you. They did it to Fox, Breitbart, Daily Wire, other places not advertised there. They discontinued operations as a result of the work we were doing and the suit brought by Elon Musk. The head of three, our, excuse me, Group M, the largest advertising agency.
Starting point is 01:35:31 was fired after our hearing. So these universities who were setting up these disinformation operations, they're not, there are many of them are saying, we're not going to do that any longer. So we feel like we're making real progress in stopping this assault, this attack on the First Amendment. We just got to keep it off. And it makes me think, too, you know, if this is all coming out. And I think Zuckerberg, for the most part, has been more transparent than most on it. I don't know what to make of that. I don't care if he's motivated by his own self. his own advantage or not. At least, you know, we're getting this information. But it kind of makes
Starting point is 01:36:05 me wonder, you know, how many other companies is this affecting? And then this is kind of what we're seeing play out in the financial sector as well. This is so widespread. This is just one aspect of it. What does that mean, though, for November? Well, well, there's another reason we felt like this information was good to get out now because what are they, what are they planning for the October surprise? Exactly. disco round because we know this we know that the hunter-biden laptop story was october 14th new york post and as mr zuckerberg admits in his letter uh they throttled that story back uh i was one of the accounts that got suspended yes yes they had that you know that this whole
Starting point is 01:36:46 going after the disinformation does it and all this different they had these names and people it was it was it was ridiculous so um look what what they got planned this year we felt it's important to get this information out there. And it's why we focus so much on these investigations. Now remember, we've released the Twitter files came out with Elon Musk, but we've also done studies and looked at Facebook. We released the Facebook files, the Amazon files, YouTube files, all these big tech companies were doing the same thing. They were all censoring, all throttling back conservative viewpoint. So we continue to highlight that. And again, we feel like we're making real progress in stopping this attack on free speed.
Starting point is 01:37:30 One of the things I will say talking with Congressman Jim Jordan that I appreciate the Republican approach is that you're not using the heavy hand of government to do it. I mean, it's actually appealing to these companies' own financial best interest because, you know, they're watching, you know, Pavaldarov be arrested in France. They're seeing the stuff that's coming at Elon Musk. They're watching the pressure that's on Zuckerberg, and they're thinking, okay, maybe, maybe we don't want to be in this business of, you know, trying to mediate with politics here. Maybe we should stay out of it.
Starting point is 01:37:55 And it's not, you know, anything that you have to threaten with big government. I mean, they're just reading the writing on the wall. Yep, yep. Never, like, like RFK Jr said, the good guys in history aren't the ones who censored. Exactly. And we need to keep that in mind. A robust First Amendment, a full First Amendment. And I tell this all, I said this the other day in a speech, every right we enjoy as Americans under the First Amendment was attacked by government.
Starting point is 01:38:22 Yeah. I mean, think about during COVID, they told Americans you could go to church on Sunday. in America. I mean, it's crazy. You're right. I gave a speech to the New Mexico Republican Party, Dana, in Amarillo, Texas, two and a half years ago because they had to go to Texas and get the freedom to assemble because their crazy Democrat governor wouldn't let them do it in their own state where they pay tax. And of course, your right to petition your governor, you could even go to your capital and yell at your member of Congress. You had to do it back home because Nancy Pelosi wouldn't
Starting point is 01:38:49 let you in the Capitol. Your house, the people's house. So on and on it goes, but the most important right is the one speak. Your right to speak. Because if you can't speak, you can't practice your face, share your faith. You don't have a free press. You can't petition your government. And that's the one the left's coming after. And that's why we have to work so hard to protect.
Starting point is 01:39:06 This election should be a reckoning, more than an election. But the reckoning of 24. Last question for your congressman. I know that you got the summer recess right now. You're back in action in September. What's the first thing, the most important thing that you're looking to tackle? Well, the funding of the government takes place. So I think we should attach to the SAVE Act, which says non-citizens aren't allowed to vote in our election to make sure you have to.
Starting point is 01:39:27 Can we get that through the Senate? I don't know, but we need a push for that to be on the spending bill, the bill that funds the government. So I think that's key. And then we're going to continue to highlight this border situation and this censorship situation in our committee when we get back in September. And we talked about this yesterday, but for the people who missed it, the SAVE Act, that's about making sure that people are, you know, legal citizens that are voting and it's protecting the integrity of the vote. Actually, this will be the last question. I know that media is already trying to fearmonger about a potential shutdown for October 1st if the Save Acts attached to it and this falls apart. I don't think Republicans really have ever been worried about it.
Starting point is 01:40:03 I don't think a shutdown that has hurt you. I mean, we had the shalacking, as Obama put it in 2010, after government shutdown. And that worked really well for Republicans. I think that people would stay with you. And I think that they would understand that should that be the case with us. Yeah, I mean, no one wants a shutdown, but we do want only citizens to vote in our lives. Exactly. That's pretty important.
Starting point is 01:40:21 One, like, like Chuck Schumer, you think it's more important to not, to not guarantee only citizens are voting. You think that's why you want to shut down the government. So Chuck Schumer wants to do that, that's up to him. I'm for funding the government. And I'm even willing to fund it at the ridiculous level it's currently funded at, for goodness sake, to make sure we get the bill on there, the bill attached to that funding bill, which says, you got to be a citizen to vote in the United States elected. There you go. Congressman Jim Jordan, one of our favorite heavy hitters in Congress, we appreciate it, sir. Thank you for your time for your fight. Safe travels. You bet. Thanks for all your good work.

Ideal for your busy lifestyle on Apple or wherever you get your podcast. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. the conclusion of this third hour. And this, we were talking, we're actually talking about Murphy v. Missouri, the Missouri v. Biden case as it relates to that whole suppression of free speech by the federal government. And I'm litigating over speech is so incredibly hard, but I'm like, still, you have
Starting point is 01:41:38 overwhelming evidence. And you know that there were people who were probably harmed, either reputational or monetarily by what the federal government was doing. in classifying this falsely as the laptop story, the October surprise saying, oh, no, no, they wanted to ward it off and they used the full force of government to do it by saying that it was Russian disinformation and having all of these actual intel officials
Starting point is 01:42:00 sign their names. They knew it was, they knew they were lying. In fact, one of them went on record to say so. They knew they were lying and they still signed their name to all of this. I am of the mindset that heads have to roll. Maybe literally.
Starting point is 01:42:15 And I don't mean maybe. in order for there to be a deterrent established that will at least with the use of fear prevent a tyrant from ever considering doing this to a free people again. I'm just saying. And I realize that we give, you know, we have our rule of law. But for something like this, you know, couldn't we look for a little. bit of a higher, like you're betraying the American people. You're, you're tyrants. I can't only imagine how this would have gone down in the days of the King Street Patriots up there in the pubs in
Starting point is 01:43:01 Boston. How would this have gone down? You know, I mean, there was little to which they reacted, which caused them to assemble in the, well, it was still a lot at the time, in the Boston Square. So I'm, you know, I'm just saying. They went after cannons out in Lexington and Concord and they were they faced off against the militia. I'm just saying, you know, it is such a betrayal of the people. And the left always likes to make the appeal to the civility of society. Well, we can't have deterrence like this. We're a civil society.
Starting point is 01:43:40 Well, that's incredibly ironic because a civil society doesn't use the full force of government to go and shut down dissent. That's the antithesis of a civil society. So you don't get to make the determination as to the penalty of being uncivil to a free people by the overbearing use of an expanded government and weaponizing and against innocent free people. You don't get to make that determination. After committing the ironic offense that you've committed, this is kind of how I look at it. But have you noticed, they will do that. They appeal to that civility of society. The people who don't practice them.
Starting point is 01:44:15 All right. Today in stupidity came. All right. It's Kamala Harris' economic advisor, Barat Ramamerti. Now, he's trying to convince you here that unrealized, or yeah, unrealized profits should be taxed. Unrealized gains in your stocks and your portfolios. They need that money. Listen, nine.
Starting point is 01:44:34 Sorry, Juan. Unrealized gains. Taxing unrealized games just doesn't seem fair. in any sense of the word. In the very best sense, if you are taxing unrealized gains, all you're doing is pulling forward the taxes that would be paid later when someone actually sells the stock. I think that this reaction to unrealized gains is a little funny given that I bet that the majority of people watching.
Starting point is 01:44:56 The fact that he finds this idea funny and the pushback to it, funny? He doesn't understand economics. That's just others to it. He doesn't understand any of this.
