Republicans have to act. But in those three years, it is true that Republicans have gotten in the way.
They just have, Peter. They have consistently used immigration, the immigration system, the broken system, as a political stunt.
That's what they've done. They've gotten in the way and trying to get more border patrol agents.
They've gotten in the way and actually trying to fix what's happening the challenges of the border.
They did.
So, I mean, they've voted, they've actually voted.
two years, no response.
It has, I'm not saying that Democrats have not been in control the first two years.
That's not what I'm saying.
I'm saying House Republicans have got in the way.
They have.
They have purposefully gotten in the way in trying to fix what's happening at the border.
Well, they, okay, so my question is they weren't the ones who in the first week issued,
how many executive orders was it, like five or six, specifically related to immigration alone,
where they repealed or, or, you?
undid, since it's, you know, an executive order, the remain in Mexico policy, the interior
enforcement policy, a whole bunch of other things as well. I mean, they, they, Democrats, through
Joe Biden, that first, that very, very first week had a plethora, an absolute plethora of
executive orders that completely undid. A lot of the stuff.
that it was working actually or was at least helping with the deluge at the border.
And then so you can't, it's not really fair to say that Republicans were in the way.
Republicans, they didn't do that.
So welcome to the show.
Dana Lash here with you.
That's the only thing I'll defend them on right now because I'm pretty aggravated and I've
been aggravated since yesterday when I saw everything.
It kind of went the way that you thought it would.
everything from the standalone border with regards to Israel, et cetera, it's just a mess.
Just a mess.
We're going to get into all of it because all of this is going to affect everything coming up obviously in 24.
So let's just get right into it.
Again, welcome to the program, Dana Lash, with you.
I hope you signed up for the newsletter.
A lot of stuff came out.
There's another piece from Lorraine that's coming out here shortly about all of this as well.
but it's going to be with you. You can listen coast to coast across the country. You can stream the radio program, all that good stuff. Find the video, the simulcast channel 347, direct TV also. So let's just jump right into it because this is what I've been livid about, still angry about. I was talking to a couple of friends about this as well about this this entire time, is what happened yesterday. So if you were watching, they failed to not only impeach Alejandro Mayorkas because you had four. It wasn't.
for, and I realized on the screenshot, or one of the links that I have, it showed that it was
three at the time it was updated because you had another individual change their votes at the
last minute to be a yes vote. But, or no vote, rather, on Mayorcas. It's just a mess. I mean,
this is, you have this situation with Mayorcas out of all of the times to impeach this guy for
not doing his job. This would have been the time to do it.
This would have been the time to do it.
And then you have the border bill, which, because you had three, it wasn't just two losses,
it was three losses that Republicans had yesterday.
So you had the border bill that Republicans still have failed to handle the messaging on.
In addition to that, you also had the standalone bill with Israel.
At least, I will say they at least sent it to the floor and waited for Democrats to vote that down.
So Democrats are on record about that.
And then you had the Mayorkas impeachment.
So let's start with the border bill because there was a sheriff's association as well.
And I'm going to pull this up because this was something that was important.
Yesterday you had the border patrol that came out and said that they liked the one specific aspect of it.
But then you had a group of sheriffs that came out and condemned this bill said that you shouldn't even be negotiating this border bill.
It's ridiculous.
so good for them on that.
Here's the problem, and I said this yesterday,
the very first fatal error that Republicans accepted as serious
was the argument that you have to have more laws to enforce the existing law at the border
because you don't need to move to the amendment stage
because this entire premise is a non-starter.
So that was the first error.
And they immediately shot themselves in their foot.
We went over all of this yesterday.
But then on top of it, they still yesterday failed to,
to get the upper hand on messaging, then they compounded the optics with the failed impeachment vote.
Now did you hear Ronna McDaniels? She's announced she's stepping down after the South Carolina primary.
Good Lord, put a hand over in my mouth right now.
You know, you could have stepped down after all those losses. We started racking up after 2016.
You know, we could have been doing it, started stepping down since then.
But as I wrote in my piece that you got this morning, the Republican Party is the Symphony of
idiots right now. So you have the situation with the border bill, the Mayorkas impeachment,
the broke Republican Party, not just nationally, but state by state. And the fundraising,
not even getting into that, the back and forth arguing as to who's going to be RNC chair,
but apparently the stories that Rona McDaniel said that she was stopping down from the South
Carolina primary, after the South Carolina primary. That was what was reported. I think it came out
from Politico, I think, that reported it.
So this is just the worst timing, I think I've ever seen.
They're really good on that.
They're really good at picking the most ridiculous timing to do this kind of stuff.
So, like we said, with the border bill, and then the Mayorgas impeachment, didn't,
Mayagris impeachment just fell apart.
They had four Republicans that voted with Democrats.
and decided that they weren't going to progress this bill.
Oh, and then I don't even, let me forget the Anahezer Bush stuff.
So they had the impeachment of DHS Secretary Murakos failed.
The Republican votes, you had four of them.
Scalese was absent.
He's his cancer, his ongoing cancer treatments.
They wheeled one Democrat in and hospital scrubs fresh out of surgery so that he could cast his vote and make it to where there wasn't even close to a tie.
So there you have it.
So they really foobared that.
So they had in the span of a singular hour, 60 minutes, in the span of 60 minutes,
you had two major votes in the Republican House on two huge issues.
And within 60 minutes, they had double losses.
60 minutes they had double losses.
Maybe they're going to have a...
Hey, doesn't it sound like this is the time to have another speaker fight?
Good time to have another speaker fight, right guys?
Go ahead and get somebody even with less political capital than the guy that has less political capital than the guy that you ousted.
I mean, I don't...
I don't know.
The flip the Mayorkis thing, though, the...
This has been...
I hope you realize that the Mayorkas fight has always been about the border.
and the administration. It's been one of the best ways that Republicans have been able to,
as a congressional body, for the lack of a better way, to put it,
uh, uh, prosecute the lack of enforcement at the border. And that's what this has always been.
Uh, but for them to, I mean, it's, and it's all like, I get it. It's all performative theater
because it's not going to go anywhere in the Senate, but it, it does something. It pushes something.
It gets Republicans on the record with something. And at least if you're impeaching the guy,
It's much more than this stupid performative, well, we resolve, you know, one of those stupid resolutions that don't do anything.
And it also shows that lawmakers in the House are hearing the electorate.
They're hearing voters who are disaffected by everything that they've been seen at the border.
But the problem with this is that it showed the absolute disaster that is House leadership.
Mike Johnson is a nice guy.
But nice guys, that doesn't mean anything when it comes to getting the job done as speaker.
he does not have the political capital to be speaker.
Mike Johnson is a nice guy.
We know some mutual people.
Never met him.
I have nothing bad to say about him as I've never, like I said, I've never met him.
You have to be a ballbreaker to be speaker.
And then you also have to be one part ballbreaker and one part super sweet.
You got to be out, you got to be a fundraiser.
You got to be everything to everybody.
And you got to be able to manipulate people to do what you want to do in order to shepherd stuff through the house.
And Mike Johnson can't do it.
he's not the guy to do it.
So this speaker fight, remember when people were getting mad at me because I said this is going to be a disaster and not because I was a fan of Kevin McCarthy?
I'm literally originally one of the people who did not like Kevin McCarthy from the get-go back when he wrote the Young Guns book.
But all of these cats who were on mommy and daddy's teat in the public sector or doing grunt work at their family business instead of getting experience anywhere else and going to Ivy League universities and waiting for seats to open up so they could buy him whether they were on 30A or somewhere else.
else. All of these people who were actually even older than me, by the way, and had less
skin in the game, less record, less conservatism, less sacrifice for the movement, were up in arms
that I was criticizing their theatrical performance because they were doing this as a grudge match
against McCarthy because they were mad that he was allowing this investigation, this ethics
investigation, which is continuing to continue against Matt Gates. Oh, they were so mad. But
my whole point was you're going to get something like this. And you better damn believe I'm going to
say, yes, I told you. I told everybody this is going to happen. This is what happens when you get a guy who's
not used to this position. Being speaker of the house is more than just a title. You got to have a
particular skill set to do this job. Johnson don't got it, folks. And we're going to have more losses.
This is one of the reasons that we had this loss yesterday. I mean, we would not have, if you had a more
powerful. And look, by this, you need to also realize what I'm saying. You're never going to get a
hardcore conservative in this job. Because you don't have enough hardcore conservatives in the
house. It is a reflection of the electorate. If you want a hardcore conservative speaker,
you better be elected more hardcore conservatives to the house. And it can't be the same group of
welfare activists that travel from state to state to do everybody's job for them. That means
everybody's got to get off their sweet keasters and throw in. Oh, I know you're not supposed to
elects of the voters. You're supposed to treat them like babies. Well, that's what big government does.
I don't do that. So this is the problem. He doesn't have the, he doesn't have the political
capital to do it. He's, he's, he's JV. He's on the JV squad. I'm not being ignorant. That's just the
way it is. Guys who had, who, who are aggressive, who got the political capital and can do it,
you wouldn't have lost four votes. You wouldn't have. You would not have lost four votes.
And it wasn't just one time within 60 minutes. It was two times.
within 60 minutes that we had this.
And I mean, he lost 14 Republicans.
14 Republicans.
I mean, granted, like when they were doing the border bill,
they were trying to do the standalone bill,
foreign aid bill for Israel, right?
They didn't want to have these two issues
in this one mashup, and I get it.
And the standalone bill did have some bipartisan support.
They brought it directly to the floor.
I didn't go through the Rules Committee to do it.
I get it, I get it.
But he lost 14 Republicans.
So we have a major problem.
We have a rudderless party.
It's just a bunch of flotsam bobbing in the wind.
We have weak leadership in the house.
And we're losing on very obvious things that we should be winning on.
To say nothing about the state party or the state-by-state parties being broke,
the national party being broke.
This is the stuff I was warning you about.
So we've got to have a conversation about this.
Because this is when the time gets tough.
And if we don't fix it now, guys,
it's going to be a bloodbath in November, and I'm just telling you what I've seen.
So we've got to have this conversation.
We're going to get into some of the cultural issues.
We've got a whole bunch of stuff.
The bud light is literal gender fluid.
Can we have that conversation coming up?
Yeah, we are.
We're going to.
Partners that I'll bring you free radio.
It's our friends at Keltech, the sub 2K.
There's a new Gen 3 out.
I have the previous one, the Gen 2.
The Gen 3, this is a 9mm carbine.
This is an incredibly innovative, just an awesome, awesome 9mm.
And it twists.
I mean, it's like gun origami.
It folds in half.
Like with the one that I have right now, the gen 2, I have to take my optics off if I want to fold it in half.
But with the new Gen 3, you don't have to do that.
It's the simple twist and fold motion of the patent pending rotating four end in either direction.
You fold a right in half, optics and all.
And just as quickly and easily deploys still optics and all.
But there's also other things that they've redesigned, like the upgraded aluminum trigger, the trigger mechanics.
You got a lighten five-pound trigger pool, get more precise feedback.
You got just it's a clean, isolated pool, improved accuracy for follow-up.
Upgraded action.
There's even a new chamber indicator.
You also have, like I said, I like how everything can stay on.
I don't have to spend the time taking stuff off the rails and then folding it up.
It's just very cool.
The Gen 3, Sub 2K, made in America by Keltec, family owned.
Very cool.
You have to check it out.
The Sub 2K, it looks like Sub 2,000 on the website.
at Gen 3, you can find it at caltechweapons.com.
That's K-E-L-T-E-C-Weapons.com.
Tell them that Dana sent you.
Does our border have turnstiles and velvet ropes?
Some Republicans are touting a bill with a limit of 5,000 migrants per day.
That's still 1.8 million per year.
An amusement park doesn't let more people in when it hits capacity.
Check out the Watchdog on Wall Street podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you get your podcast.
And now.
All of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So apparently, mushrooms, mushroom busts are rising because psychedelics are gaining favor.
There's some actually really interesting studies about their treatment of PTSD and all of that stuff as it relates to vets.
That is actually quite interesting, like medicinally.
You're not talking about drug addicts or anything like that.
It's the psilocybin, isn't that?
That's the main psychoactive component.
Anyway, apparently the use of it recreationally has increased.
And then the seizing of that and these busts of these shrooms, they said that in 2022, they had over 1,396.
I didn't realize it was that crazy that there were that many seizures of it.
I just never really paid attention to it.
I mean, I'm not, you know, I don't really watch the whole, I don't watch all this stuff, but not everything.
But yeah, they said that between, that people over the age of 12,
11.3% of people, age 12 and over, reported having used it in 2022.
The psilocybin. That's interesting.
Because they have been doing these drug trials.
I have a friend that's involved a veteran who's involved in advocating its usage in controlled environments for veterans coming back from combat.
It's very, very interesting stuff.
So in Britain, I can't believe that they were allowed to do this because one of my favorite hobbies is watching the real estate battles in Britain.
because they're so ridiculous.
They have so many regulations and restrictions.
It is like a soap opera.
It is real life.
There's multiple stories every single day, and this is one of them.
So residents are infuriated because somehow a 60-foot-high warehouse was able to be built right
behind these picturesque houses, and they realized that, oh, we made a mistake because
we consulted the wrong street.
So imagine you have your regular subdivision, but then right behind your subdivision, you have
giant like Amazon like warehouse
that literally butts right up against your backyard
and it's a metal framed and it is
absolutely crazy and it's actually they also
I read another piece I think it was in the telegraph where they said
that it actually cast a shadow throughout the entire afternoon on the back of their houses
so it's very interesting that no
let's see a man was almost licked to death by his pet chihuahua
this is disgusting
yeah because they the bit like bacteria apparently the guy was hospitalized I
71 years old he had to have an oxygen mess.
He caught a ritter bug from being licked by his dog.
So, you know, maybe just be careful.
I don't know.
And a man bites off and spits out part of an officer's finger
joining an arrest in Denver.
I'm sure he wasn't under any kind of,
oh, yeah, he was, according to the affidavit.

If you're on
impeachment, I mean, what happened yesterday
with the vote on Secretary of myork?
Why bring that to the floor if you
didn't have the votes? And will you
hold another vote to impeaching?
Yeah, on impeachment, last night was a saidback, but
democracy is messy. We live in a time of
divided government. We have a razor
thin margin here, and every vote
counts. Sometimes when you're counting
votes and people show up when they're not expected to be
in the building that changes the equation. But listen, we have a duty and a responsibility to take
care of this issue. We have to hold the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security accountable.
Mayorkas needs to be held accountable. The Biden administration needs to be held accountable.
And we will pass those articles of impeachment. We'll do it on the next round.
So they're going to try for a number two, for the love. I think if you're going to run and try to
do it again, make sure that you don't lose four votes. You can't lose four votes. Look, Johnson's a nice guy,
but this isn't about nice guys. Welcome back to the program, Daniel Lashier with you.
Always good to be with you bottom of this first hour. And who my, it's not about nice guys. It's about
there's a specific job that's got to get done. Can you do it? That's what this is about.
And he doesn't have a lot of political capital. The Republican leadership is an absolute
flippin mess. It is a mess right now. We had two huge losses that shouldn't have been losses in the
span of one hour last night. That's not to say anything about the state of the finances of the
party. They got eight million cash on hand. You know how much Biden and Democrats have? $293 million.
$8 million cash on hand. I'm not joking. It was a lot of the reporting from Jen Van Laar that we've had on,
that we had on last, what was it last week? Yeah. That talked about the state of R&C finances.
This matters because they're the ones who do a lot of the national strategy. But they've been
completely rudderless as of late, which is interesting now that after that reporting
that came out from Red State, now, excuse me, it looks like
the Ronna McDaniel is going to be stepping down. They had the chief of staff,
RNC chief of staff who stepped down. That announcement came yesterday. Now it looks like
Ronna McDaniel is going to resign for the South Carolina primary. The New York Times reported
this last night. I was hearing this from people before the New York Times story.
And I'm like, I want to wait and see because this also could be like a move to try to
push her out. But she apparently said she's stepping down shortly after the South Carolina primary.
And apparently they said that it might be Michael Watley as the interim replacement of the North
Carolina Republican Party. Trump picked Ronna McDaniel and backed her hardcore to get the seat.
He's backing Michael Watley, although he can't just pick somebody. They have to have an election for
the speaker. Look, I'm going to tell you, I've known Trump for over 10 years. I like him personally. I think he
make some very questionable choices when it comes to personnel. And you guys know this is right.
I don't care how much you love him. I don't care if you got his face tattooed on your backside,
a la Roger Stone. I don't care. Some of his personnel questions leave a lot to be desired.
And so the RNC's disaster is spending the absence of any kind of national strategy. So they're doing this.
This is happening in an election year. The head of the RNC is stepping down. The parties,
been kind of rudderless. There's no top-down strategy. Previously, say what you will about a lot of
these cats, but at least they were getting everybody on the same page when it came to pushing for
narratives about the border or about funding for Ukraine, et cetera. At least they, you know,
at least they would mostly get on the same page. But now it's a mess. Everybody's out for themselves.
They're all looking for everything. Democrats are staying together like the Borg. Who did they wheel in?
They wheeled in what's his face? I have the story.
They wheeled in the dude last night.
He apparently had surgery to go and vote.
Oh, Al Green.
Yeah, Al Green literally had had surgery.
They wheeled him in from his hospital beds, still wearing his tan medical socks and scrubs to vote.
Weald him in.
He's got a ponytail.
They wheeled him in.
They're serious.
Democrats did that because they're serious about winning.
it's not enough to have an ideology.
It's not enough to have the product.
You got to have the marketing and the distribution for the product.
Republicans always forget this part.
They're like, well, here's our product.
It's freedom.
Freedom's great.
Love freedom.
Lower taxes?
Yeah.
Who doesn't love lower taxes?
Right?
Limited government for most of them?
Yeah.
Who doesn't love that?
But then they throw it out there and they're like, okay, here it is.
Bye.
Then they don't tell you nothing about it.
They don't message it.
They don't push it. Democrats are out there. My gosh, they act like it's a new Taylor Swift album.
When they come out with something, they're out there all over the place with us.
And they're all in step. Now, that's not, that is not a difference of alpha and beta.
Because I do think that some of the difficulties that the right experiences come down to the types of people and personalities that are attracted.
You just got more people who like to be a Mohan solo than not.
but this is about discipline and just being smart.
I mean, strategy is smart.
That's something smart people do.
I mean, the moment, the moment, the moment they went out there and they're like,
right before election kicks off, we're going to switch out our speaker of the house.
We have no replacement at all.
None.
Oh, my gosh.
All these people bootlicking Matt Gates were so mad at me.
Oh, yeah, I said it.
But they were mad at me.
And I'm like, I don't care about Kevin McCarthy.
I'm worried about the timing of this.
Now you see why.
They had a rush to find a replacement, a guy who wouldn't ready.
And again, I'm not saying this to be mean about Mike Johnson.
I know some of you all out there like him.
I'm not being mean about it.
But we've got to be honest about these things.
So Ron and McDaniel's stepping down.
Matt Gates has suggested Kevin McCarthy.
I think he's still on a vengeance tour.
He's mad that the history between Gates and McCarthy is that there's an ethics
investigation still ongoing into Matt Gates.
And Matt Gates had demanded that Kevin McCarthy stop it.
Kevin McCarthy declined, and so Matt Gates went on the rampage against him.
That's what happened.
That's why all of this stuff happened the way of dead, because Matt Gates accused Kevin McCarthy of not stopping the ethics investigation, held him responsible and wanted and was out for blood.
That's why this happened.
That's the whole reason why this happened.
And so now we have this mess.
And then in the RNC.
So the, she's stepping down.
Kevin McCarthy was suggested by Gates last night as,
possible replacement. I mean, it wouldn't be bad, but I just don't think that that's,
I don't think that's it. I don't think that's the, I just don't know if that's the way to go.
Because this, I mean, he can fundraise, and that's a huge part of it. You got to be out,
you got to fundraise. You, you got to, you got to, you got to be able to go and, and, and, and, and,
do this, and then twist arms and all that stuff.
I mean, McCarthy, it's not, that wouldn't be a huge stretch for him.
But Wadley got endorsed already for co-chair, so we'll see.
We'll see how it goes because they got to have that vote for that replacement.
All right, can we talk about Bud Light?
Bud Light is literal gender fluid.
It is.
I wrote about this back in April.
And I was tweeting about this some last night.
because it came out, this is another problem I got.
Republicans run away from actual serious wins.
Yes, it was a win.
The Disney thing was a win.
Because you had a big company that was receiving unfair cronious tax exemptions that
nobody else was receiving.
And they got, they tried to get all, they tried to big time in Florida against parents
and they got in trouble.
And then you had Bud Light that trotted out a dude and condescended to women.
And men all over the nation very chivalrously stood up for the ladies, which was kind of hot.
They stood up for the ladies.
And women stood up for themselves too.
And now it's like, I don't know, people are kind of walking back on Bud Light, Anheiser-Busch.
They're walking back on it.
so I get it that they got a UFC deal.
They're trying to do some damage control desperately.
So they have this multi-million dollar deal with UFC.
They're doing a big $7 million commercial for Super Bowl.
And they got what, Peyton Manning, they got Dana White.
They got a whole bunch of people on it.
Excuse me.
And they, Trump came out last night.
I disagree with him on this.
He said that the Bud Light ad was a mistake of epic proportions and that for a very big price was paid,
but Anheiser Bush is not a woe company.
I can give you plenty that are and building a list and might release it for the world to see.
And he goes, Anheiser Bush, blah, blah, blah, talks about what they do that he thinks is great.
And he goes, maybe we should be going after the woe companies that are looking to destroy America.
I do think that if you're going to defend a company that's been in a lot of hot water,
you need to disclose that you've got millions of dollars of stock in them.
it's all public information are not saying anything that anybody should know.
But no, all they had to do, the simplest thing that they could have done, and this is biblical, is apologize, because don't demand reconciliation without acknowledgement of wrong.
Scripture doesn't even provide for that.
And they never, all women ever wanted was for them to say, you know what, we messed up, we're sorry, ladies.
That's it.
This isn't difficult.
Why do people act like this is so hard?
You don't got to spend $7 million on an ad.
You don't got to do all this stuff.
All they had to do was say, hey, we're sorry, ladies, that's it.
But they didn't do it.
For whatever reason, they cannot bring themselves to say they're sorry.
To acknowledge beyond just kind of a shrug.
I don't care who Anheiser Bush puts in their ads.
I don't care how much stock is owned by whatever politician in Anheism.
or Bush, the easiest and the cheapest thing they could have done was to apologize. A simple
move that acknowledges wrong. There is no reconciliation without this initiative. None. People can,
you know, go ahead and they can say, oh, enough time is past. Man, this is like running towards the
L's, man, running towards them. I wrote about this, like I said back in April, because this is,
it's just goofy.
Budweiser doesn't get a pass.
They don't get a pass.
Women are worth far more than how much stock you got in their company.
They're worth far more than what kind of contract they can pay for UFC.
They're worth far more than the $7 million that they're paying for a Super Bowl ad.
The companies donated fairly equally to both.
In 2020, they donated more to Biden than Trump.
And this was all made out to make.
it like, oh, this was the right pushing this.
We didn't ask for this.
We didn't ask to pick a fight with Anheiser-Busch.
Women were mined in our own damn business when this beer company came out with a dude.
Cosplaying as a chick.
That's not our issue, so don't tell us to get over it now.
We weren't the ones that made issue of it.
But we are going to be the ones that fight this stuff.
It is the equivalent to, it's like codifying this stuff in status quo.
And that should not happen.
The erasure of women should not be cemented as part of the status quo.
People have lost their jobs over this.
Women have been relegated to the bench.
There's a story about, I had a volleyball story where five of the players on the court were dudes masquerading as chicks and the women varsity players were sitting on the bench.
Women are, this is becoming a huge thing.
They're being subjected to bullying and intimidation.
I had a member of my own family when she was in high school.
school. And this was in Jefferson County, Missouri. An 18-year-old male, while she was a sophomore in
high school, was demanding to change in the locker rooms that she changes in for sports. An 18-year-old
male who was six-foot-two. And our family member was, what, supposed to change in front of him?
And she was called a bigot if she felt uncomfortable. It's hard enough for young women out there
without that kind of pressure. The pressure that's being essentially codified into the status quo,
with big contracts in UFC
and having former presidents defend them
because they got stock in the company?
Are you kidding me?
I see these people speaking out more
for this damn company than I do.
All of these women across the country and men
that have been disproportionately harmed by this stuff.
Imagine if you went out with the same energy
speaking up for all these girls
who had to sit here and rush into the public bathrooms
at school and change
because their locker rooms were no longer safe for them
because they had six foot two,
18 year old dudes changing in there who wanted a larp as a chick for the day.
I wish people spoke out as much for them.
What about Riley Gaines when they were making fun of her because she tied with a dude in one race?
Say now she must not be that great after all.
What about the female surfer that came out?
What was the event that she came out at?
And they had a bunch of trans activists.
It was at a Riley Gaines event.
Bethany Hamilton, 33 years old.
She survived a shark.
attack. She lost an arm. Trans-
trans-activists came out to an event she was at with stuffed sharks to make fun of her.
This just happened within the week.
Imagine if these politicians and these business dudes spoke out as much for people like
Bethany Hamilton as they do for their precious bros at Anheiser Bush. It's piss baby
beer. That's what you're drinking. You want to go on record defending that?
That's what you're going to defend?
You know what? It's the lique of beers. They throw a Guinness through it. And then they take the water and they call a Budweiser. You're defending that harder than you're defending these ladies. It's like you don't ever want to get late again, dudes. What's happening with you? When emergency strike, the last thing you want to worry about is where your next meal comes from.

The actual consequences at the border itself.
If this bipartisan agreement doesn't,
proceed and is it the administration's position that if it doesn't pass that the border is not secure from national
So I mean look this is stuff that the president has talked about before. I mean look there are challenges at the border
You all report that we see that
It gets overwhelmed at the border. So this is why the first day of his administration the president put forth a comprehensive
Immigration policy because
What?
He tore down policies.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, you know.
Oh, my gosh.
He created this.
It wasn't a policy.
It was a bunch of executive orders, you absolute Muppet.
That's what it was.
It was a bunch of executive orders.
By the way, this is why you can't do things by executive order.
You have to be a leader and actually shepherd them through the legislative process in Congress.
Because if you do something with an executive order, it can be undone with another executive order in the administration coming after yours.

Every day between now and November, the American people are going to know that
The only reason the border is not secure is Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican friends.
It's time for Republicans in the Congress to show a little courage, to show a little spine.
I don't understand what this has to do with Trump because he didn't undo these executive orders.
This is my, okay, first off, welcome back to the show.
Top of the second hour, Dana Lash with you.
You can listen coast to coast and bound to say something that's going to either going to make you mad or cheer.
So stay with it.
You don't even agree with your husband or wife on everything.
Stop.
but good to be with you listen coast to coast and on a station near you stream the radio program you can also watch the simulcast the video component of the radio show you can check that out as well on channel 347 direct TV YouTube Facebook good discussion at YouTube always and sign up for the newsletter over its subsection chapter and verse Lorraine's got a piece coming out here shortly so uh this was one of my gripes this was and people were giving me a side eye when I made it and this is why I made it I wanted Trump to sheper
legislation through Congress and push for people to propose these bills and do it before there
was any attempt at an executive order. Because if you do executive orders, like with the tax cuts,
it's one of the reasons why we don't have permanent tax cuts. And one of the reasons why all of the
stuff of the border was undone. When you do everything with executive order, it can be undone with
an executive order. And that's literally what Biden did, day one of his administration. On day one,
he, with an executive order, suspended the remain in Mexico, a lot of the interior
or enforcement. There was a whole bunch of things that he changed for huge aspects of immigration
and border control. And that contributed to this huge problem that we see right now. And that's not
a Trump. That was Biden that did it. However, it would have been impossible for him to have done it
had Republicans actually pass something. They had, I mean, we had Republicans for four years.
Now, some say, but Dana, there was only a majority for two years. I don't accept excuses. Either
you're a ball-breaking fighter or you're not.
And two years controlling the House and Senate and White House is enough, guys, to get it done.
There's no excuse. Zero excuse. Why wasn't it done? Because of will. Some in the Republican Party don't want it done.
Some allowed themselves to get distracted. I mean, it's the same reason you could ask Democrats under Obama Biden when and during the first half of the first
half of the first half of Barack Obama's first term, he had a super majority before a couple of special
elections changed that makeup in the House, meaning they could have overridden every veto and done
whatever they wanted to. And they didn't do it. It was weird. They didn't do the stuff that they said
that they could have done by pushing Obamacare through faster. They could have done any, I mean,
there were a number of things that they didn't do. Republicans didn't have a super majority for the first
two years of Trump's term, but they sure as hell had a majority. There's no excuse. I don't accept
excuses from leaders. I don't accept any excuse. You want to be a leader? Part of that job is you forfeit
excuses. End of. I don't, I don't, anything, accepting anything less is a weakness that makes my ovaries
curl up and scream. I can't deal with it. So I don't like it. I don't like it. It's a hallmark of
weakness and weakness is something that is so not hot. I just hate it. Anyway, that being said,
Republicans should have, they should have done it. So this isn't, this isn't, it's not a Trump issue.
It's also an issue that, again, executive order, and it's an issue.
You don't need to pass certain laws to say we have these laws.
We got to enforce them.
We have to do this.
We have to.
I mean, that was kind of the argument here.
Now, one of the things that, I'm going to pull this up.
This is one of my criticisms here.
Where's Dan Crenshaw's piece?
This is Audio Soundbite 7.
He's misrepresenting HR2 here.
I don't dislike Dan.
I disagree with him on some stuff pretty vehemently, and he's been on the program before
and we've disagreed.
But I'm not going to chuck him into a pile of Marxists.
But he's just, you know, if only everyone would agree with me, we'd have such a wonderful
world, right?
But, you know, sadly, that's not the case.
But this is, I think, a misrepresentation of HR2.
Listen to this, audio soundbate 7.
I understand some Republicans are saying, we don't need any changes to law.
Then why did we write HR2?
Why did we do that?
Why didn't Trump just shut down the border if you just think we don't need any changes to
lie?
He couldn't.
He had to make a deal with Mexico.
And he did a great job doing that.
But he had to rely on literally international agreements to get it under control.
We do need changes to law.
You've got to change those loopholes in asylum.
You've got to raise the bar for asylum.
You've got to make it very clear that there's no paroleing.
So this,
the issue with H1 or with H.R.2 is the reason why there's a misrepresentation there is this. So if you have, say, and I have friends that are Hispanic Americans, they are Republicans, they are really into this issue. And I've had lots of conversations with them about it because they hate, you think you hate illegal immigration. Talk to somebody who stood in line for nine years to become a citizen of the country and did it the right way.
and then measure how much you hate illegal immigration against how much they hate illegal immigration.
The issue with this is that is the H-1B visa holders and a lot of the skilled workforce and chain migration.
And this is one of the things that HR2 was actually looking as a first step to reform.
Because when you have people who come here to the United States and they go to college here and they develop a skill and they go to work and then a lot of times, you know, the time runs out and they have to go back.
to their home country and then wait a, you know, wait a little bit before they're able to come
back or obtain a work visa to come back. And they want to be Americans. They want to be citizens.
They want to come here and vote Republican and pay taxes. And oh, my gosh, that's what we want.
But it's almost prohibitively, made prohibitively difficult for them. Whereas you can literally say,
oh, I've got an uncle in Wyoming. Oh, you got a blood relative in Wyoming? Come on in.
there's a pathway for you to become a legal citizen. It's a hell of a lot easier than the person
who did everything right and has been jumping through the hoops for years. I have a number of friends
who became American citizens, and I'm not kidding you, the shortest amount of time one of them
ever had to wait was seven years. And that was only because they were in the medical field.
I think it would have been a lot longer. I have a friend who waited 13 years. And it's not just
people who are coming from Mexico or coming from Venezuela or Colombia or Argentina. I have
friends that came from Ireland, friends that came from the UK. It's crazy. Friends that came from Spain.
It's weird. And they'll wait 10, 11, 12 years and they do everything right. So it's, it's, and these are
high-skilled workers that, you know, they're going to come here and they're going to pay into the
tax base and they're going to build something and add to that, add to the valuation of the
United States and have families and raise little little conservative voters.
my gosh, that's what you want. But instead we're going, oh, you have a blood relative in New Mexico.
Come on in. No, nothing about you. Go ahead. Come on in. So that's one of the things that HR2 was actually
gearing up because that's a huge thing that you have to, it has to be an incremental thing.
So he's, it's a little bit of a disingenuous misrepresentation of what HR2 was designed to do.
There are actual problems with the system and it's going to require an incremental, continuous, relentless.
incremental effort to change it. And it starts there. And that's one of the things that this was.
They, you know, you're not just going to hand out green card after green card and you're not just
going to ease work permit requirements for non-skilled work. You're not going to do any of that.
Those are non-starters. And that's what Roy, Congressman Roy, who wrote HR2 had said.
This was designed to start for the people that you want coming here to make it a little less
prohibitively ridiculous and untangle a lot of the bureaucracy and actually make it difficult for the
people that you don't want to come here, coming in illegally, or doing the blood claim, or, you know,
or just endless, inless throwing it out like Marty Grah beads, work visas for lower skilled workers,
who, or people who are coming in and immediately need to be on entitlements. That's, there needs to be
a shift, and that's what HR2 was designed to start incrementally looking at. So that's a very disingenuous,
it's a misrepresentation of what HR2 was. There are reforms that need to be made. But the way that
they've been approaching it with this bill is not it. Just because something needs to be done,
that is not enough of a reason to say, oh, well, we have to pass any bill, even if it's a bad bill.
No, a bad bill is a bad bill. How high are you? How many of these people in D.C. are hitting
Hunters Rock? I got a lot of questions about that. How many of them are doing this?
It's, it's asinine. So, I'm just, yeah, major issues with us. Major issues with it.
So we have a couple of things, because we got Super Bowl coming up this week, and they're not doing, he's what, not doing a press conference or any kind of interview that they would normally do.
They're also not doing a, he's not doing a press conference, Germany's leaders coming in on Friday.
Apparently he's not doing a press conference there either.
Usually they would have, they sit with their, you know, their world leaders and they do it.
This is audio sum by five.
KJP is trying to explain why.
why he's at least skipping the Super Bowl one?
This is weird.
Anything specifically on why you're not doing the Super Bowl interview?
I mean, that's a massive audience in an election year
of people who may not be tuned into this White House
for this election at this moment.
So look, as you know, Super Bowl is a great annual tradition.
And look, the president certainly,
President Biden looks forward to watching the game this Sunday,
just like millions of, as you just stated,
just like millions of Americans are going to be doing that.
And look, you know, we hope that the viewers who tuned in, you know, we know that the viewers who tuned in, they promptly tuned in to watch the game, right?
And so, obviously, you know, that is just a fact.
They want to see the game.
They want to see their favorite team.
They want to see a halftime show.
That is what the super is that type of tradition.
The president will find many other ways to communicate with Americans, the millions of Americans out there.
and we will find those ways to do it where we think the time is right.
That's a cop out.
You know it.
That's a cop out.
That's an excuse.
Just a total excuse.
It's all it is.
So coming up, this was an interesting story that I saw that had to do with the tensions in the Red Sea because of Iran and the, their militia, they back the Houthis there in Yemen.
So you know how it's been very, very, it's gotten a lot more.
expensive, and I've got some headlines that support this, a lot more expensive for shipping,
et cetera, going through the Red Sea. That's a major, I mean, it's a major hub of activity.
Well, Chinese ships, they're actually getting an insurance edge. They're getting discounts on
insurance because the Houthis, they've said they're not going to attack Chinese and Russian vessels.
And so Chinese vessels are actually getting, they're getting a boon out of this because they're being
protected by the Houthis. This is all very interesting. We're going to talk about this here and a
whole bunch of other stuff coming up as we get moving. As we move, our partners that help bring you
free radio and we're happy that they do. We're happy that they do what they do. Goldco. This is a
precious metals entity, which I highly suggest you check out because it can seem confusing when
you're looking for a precious metals company that you can trust. It's not entirely easy, which is
why you should turn a gold coat because wasteful government spending, printing more money.
That's exactly how we get inflation. So I had a gold and silver as a hedge against inflation with
Gold Co. Right now you can get a free 2024 gold kit and you can learn how to possibly get $10,000
in bonus silver. Now, one of Gold Co's more unique qualities is their education first
stance. It's very thoughtful in the information that they put out. They walk you through absolutely
everything. They have that one-of-a-kind gold IRA kit for individual buyers. They explain the
economy of it, how gold IRAs work.
They just make it easy for you to get the benefit of owning actual physical gold and silver.
No pressure.

So the FAA is warning against Congress hiking the airline pilot retirement age.
Yeah, I think that might be a good idea, actually, to not do that.
I don't want somebody like Biden flying my plane.
I'm sorry, I don't.
Actually, I'm not sorry.
I don't.
It's my life, suckers.
I won't want that.
No.
So they say, no, maybe don't do that.
Doctors are beginning to ration penicillin to curb syphilis because people can't stop being horse.
It's rates of STDs at a 70-year high.
And that's the reason why.
Like you're all nasty and you're all doing nasty stuff with nasty people.
Stop being nasty.
It's very simple.
Very simple fix.
And then you don't got a ration penicillin anymore.
A faulty door panel on an Alaska Airlines flight had no bolts installed, says NTSB and a preliminary report.
Yeah, no bolts.
Not even end bolt.
Not one.
And then the door plug blew right the heck off.
That was according to the preliminary findings released Tuesday by the National Transportation Safety Board.
They sent a picture of the plane in a factory that was revealed the total lack of bolts.
How do you miss that?
Are they going to start upcharging for bolts now?
I mean, really? They do for leg room.
Yes, that's our, would you like a plane with bolts or no bolts?
Do you want a 50-year-old man named Steve flying your plane or a 25-year-old pilot named Tiffany with an eye?
what do you want?
It's an upcharge for Steve.
If you want Steve and bolts, that's going to be $150 feet extra.
Mm.
Not including extra leg room.
I wouldn't doubt it.
Like, come on with the bolts.
Okay, this brings me to my whole other point.
I'm going to touch on this coming up later.
An airline, Fin Air, Finland's flagship airline,
they're going to start weighing passengers to calculate flight balance.
Are there fat people in Finland?
I'm asking the questions that come into your mind,
but you're terrified to ask.
I'm asking them.
Because for real, I'm, like, thinking about it.
And I'm like, why do they need to do that?
Aren't all the Norwegian people, like, tall and alien-like?
Physics.
I don't know.
I mean, just, it's, you know, you don't need two seats.
Let's see here.
Oh, here's we're going to talk about this also.
Five transgender students dominated a volleyball court
at a women's college varsity game.
And the biological females were kicked all the way down the bench.
I mean, they look like dudes.
just because you got long hair and you can put some gloss on
doesn't mean that you don't look like a dude.
We can see, I mean, clearly, there's more than that
just volleyball on the court.
There's a lot of balls on that court.
We get it.
That doesn't mean you're a check.
It's ma'am.
It is ma'am.
It is ma' it's correct.
Let's see.
McDonald's CEO promises affordability
because people got mad over an $18
big Mac and $6 hash browns.
So people who probably voted for Joe Biden
are mad that Joe Biden's policies
made their Big Mac cost $18
and their hash browns cost $6.
Wow, it's almost like someone should have told you
that that would have happened.
There you go.
And apparently the world's biggest goldfish was caught in a suburban lake.

It's like it's time for the GOP to get their balls out of Trump's desk and stand for border security because they've been yelling for it for months.
And that's where I'm at with it.
Do their job.
All right.
So Fetterman's, now don't be in danger in your hoodie pass now.
I was like, I'm not going to criticize him because he was, you know, kind of being based on some stuff with the hoodie.
I'm not going to wear the hoodie.
I'm not going to get, you know, but.
I'm telling you.
welcome back to the show Dana Lashier, bottom of this second hour.
That's the narrative that they want.
They're trying to act like that this is, they're trying to act like this is somehow all Trump's fault and that it's, he's directing all of this.
And they're doing it so that they can boost Biden in the general.
But it's not Trump.
I mean, Trump is, look, if you're being honest about it.
in 2018 there was that amnesty bill that he backed it was that
Paul Ryan thing and then he's this was something
this was a bill that was written by Langford it was somebody that he had endorsed
but he wasn't calling people and demanding that
he didn't get involved in this fight until
kind of towards the conclusion of it so
that's kind of unfair but they are trying to paint this out as
as it being like a they're trying to have Biden run against Trump without
having Biden run against Trump is what it is
is. They're trying to have it both ways here. And it's just not, I don't think that that's going to work,
but Republicans are fubarring up the whole messaging. How do you have an issue that you were such a
leader on that you're winning on? And then you're just, you just, foobar. How? The immigration
to think at the border. Now it's, oh, it's the Republicans that don't want to pass anything.
and Republicans are out there just trying to, you know, figure, they're just fighting with each other.
We, I'm going to switch gears here and look at the story that I had.
I'm going to pull this up.
This, did you see the story of these five transgender students absolutely dominating a volleyball court during a college varsity game?
and all of the biological females were relegated to the bench.
They were all on the bench.
I don't know if you guys saw this story.
It's pretty unbelievable.
These, I mean, they look like, I mean, I'm being real, they look like dudes.
And I don't know if you've seen any of the video of them spiking the balls and all of this.
Oh my gosh, they're so, are we going to get there the story?
I don't know.
More than one way to spike a ball.
they
okay
the video shows all the girls
the biological females they took turns
at war I'm in the bench
all five dudes
stayed on the court the entire time
they played the entire game
every second
she sounds hideous
well she's a guy so
yeah
well she's a guy
I mean it's
yeah
you gotta turn my fare go up
oh yeah
it's time
But they said they were seen smashing the, oh man, they were seen smashing the ball past their female teammates.
They stayed each of them on the court for the entirety of the game, where when only biological female players were substituted for other biological females on and off the bench.
I mean, they're big dudes, too.
They're they're dudes.
They look like dudes.
They're the biggest ones on the court.
And remember the one injury, it was the in Ontario.
where they said they, the college's athletic association there, there was a chick who got hit in the face by a dude who slammed that ball into her head with such force that she had to go to the hospital.
You, you have men athletes that are dominating in women's sporting events across the United States and Canada.
What is normal men?
What do you mean normal men?
We're just innocent men.
I mean, it's, just men.
This is what I'm talking about.
They said that at Seneca College, the school with more trains players, they won the best of, they won the best of five series.
And then when they had, uh, the media was going to ask them some questions, they were, they were rushing the players away from the media, the dudes away from the media.
So they didn't have to, they didn't have to answer any questions.
I mean, they, they, uh, they had six biological men playing in the OCAA, according to the source, Seneca and Centennial.
ones playing each other were members. And they, I mean, that's, they're dudes. It was basically a male
volleyball game with men cosplay as dudes. And then you have this issue with Bud Light. I'm not ready
to give this issue up. Juan has an excerpt of what we talked about with it last hour. I saw this
thing from Caitlin Jenner. He seems like a nice enough guy, but I'm not calling, you're not part of the
sisterhood.
what it's true i wasn't even trying to be funny or smart ass there it just cracks me up i'm sorry
i'm just not look i'm not gonna be gaslit and i'm not gonna have my speech stolen from me by a bunch
of dudes who are stuffing bras and like waving around lipstick i'm not doing it but he's out there
making excuses for anheiser bush and he's like as someone who worked for this and kately gener goes
out and says as someone who worked for this incredible american company and got to know them well
I raised for Anheiser Bush in the 80s, and I agree, you know, they need to let them off the hook.
Well, as a chick with an actual vagina, I disagree with you.
And I've had two male children.
And you ran for them in the 80s.
I don't know.
I just got here.
I'm so don't do this.
If you want to sit here and have like a, I mean, if you want to have a actual legitimate
fallacy measuring contest, I've birthed two of them.
You only have one.
So that's how I measure it.
I asked, did they apologize?
It is amazing some of the people that are like,
what do you mean apologize?
Like, what do you mean apologize?
All they would have to do is an apologetic Super Bowl ad.
It may not be important to you,
but I'm seeing stories like this,
where these chicks are like sitting on the bench
watching dudes play their game.
That's the stuff I'm watching.
I'm watching women get pushed down the line.
It is the ultimate form of the,
it's progressive dudes pushing this.
And they're,
getting conservatives to make excuses for it. Holy cow. Some of you all are getting so taken,
not you guys listening, but you know, people are getting so taken in on this. Holy cow.
It's something that progressives are pushing and you got some Republicans, including the former
president is getting out there and defending it. What? No. No. Again, like I said,
It's the lique, sorry, lecois of beer, where they took a Guinness and they threw it through a stream of water and they bottled it and then they took that bottle and they threw it through water and then they bottled it as bud light and sold it.
I can't imagine going to the mat and throwing women under the bus for that beer.
Now as someone and Kane can is one of them, we were born, we were born raised in St. Louis.
I lived three blocks away from Anheiser Bush.
I saw it every day.
They're huge headquarters where they had the Clydesdales.
They would keep the Clydesdills over at Grants Farm,
but they'd bring them up for Christmas because they had stables in that
at the huge complex there in St. Louis, right off 555.
It was right by Seulard and Benton Park in McKinley Heights.
I lived right there.
Could smell the hops and barley in the air in the evenings.
My favorite thing to do in a summer evening was sit outside
and smell the hops and the barley, right?
And then I would, and, you know, you could, if it was a cards game and somebody hit a home or the fireworks, because we were right by the stadium, too.
I mean, it was, so I grew up, that's like a part of, like, the fabric of my geographical identity.
But there's so much more to it than this.
So much more to it than this.
So anyway, Caitlin Jenner tweeted that.
And I'd asked, I go, do they apologize?
I mean, that's pretty simple.
I mean, it's a simple thing, you know.
I mean, did they apologize?
So, I don't know.
We, let's switch gears here because we got some other stuff to hit too.
So as I said, Rana McDaniel, who is stepping down.
Well, she's going to step down for the South Carolina primary.
Matt Gates is apparently going to nominate Kevin McCarthy.
And maybe.
But they have to have an election to do it.
He wants Kevin McCarthy to do it.
they have to have an election.
I don't even know.
I don't even think that that would work.
I don't even think that that would work.
I don't know.
He's in the house right now.
I just, this is the most inopportune time to have this fight.
Right when we're getting ready, we're getting ready to wrap up officially the primaries.
South Carolina is, you know, it's pretty much all, for all intents and purposes done.
This is the time when they need to be shifting gears and thinking of fundraising, et cetera, et cetera.
and they have $8 million cash on hand.
Everything's a must.
Do you honestly think by the time they have their elections
and get a new leader of the RNC
that they're going to have somebody
who's going to be able to untie this not that quickly
and get everybody on the same page going into November?
I mean, am I being a fatalist?
I just don't see it happening.
It's his life mission to make bad decisions.
It's time for Florida, man.
Why is this on video?
I'm not sending this to you.
because we're not traumatizing the people watching the simulcast.
Juan will put it up there in like a heartbeat.
Broward Sheriff's Office deputies
took a guy into custody
at the Terminal 1, Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport.
36-year-old Martin Evtimov.
Yeah.
He walked into the departure section
without any clothing on at all whatsoever.
None.
I guess I think he drove naked too. Any KKID naked. He drove there like that too, apparently.
He went to the secure TSA checkpoint and breached the checkpoint. How do you breach the checkpoint?
And it was intercepted by airport district deputies and TSA officers. He was resisted arrest. He was finally taken into custody.
He faces two counts of battery on a law enforcement officer resisting arrest with violence, disorderly conduct, disorderly intoxication, indecent exposure.
he's booked into Broward Maine jail after he was evaluated at the hospital.
They have no idea why it was just buck naked running around the airport.
Oh my gosh, it's so bad.
The video is so bad.
Guys, it's, I can't.
Okay, Juan.
I don't know.
We can't really, it's, even the censored parts are horrible.
The guy is like spayed out on one of those conveyor belts and they're trying to arrest him.
The officers have to arrest him and get the,
guy in detained.
Yeah, with all of his bits and pieces flopping out and without it looking weird.
I mean, it's got to be in their minds.
Can you imagine what's going through their heads like this?
I woke up today for this.
Like, you know that that's, oh my gosh.
It's so bad.
You guys see it.
You see the video king, yes?
Yeah, in that instance, do they need extra zip ties?
Oh, my gosh.
It's so bad.
And then they try to put a hospital gown on him to get him through the airport at least.
But, you know, the gowns like that, they don't really close in the back.
Do they wipe all the, I hope they wiped all that off because I have a major problem using, like, going through that whole conveyor area in the first place because everybody touches those bins and it's so nasty.
And then to know that like a dude came in and was all naked all over it is just.
Your luggage could be touching his butt germs.
Oh, that's so bad.
It's so bad.
I mean, it is so bad.
Oh, my gosh.
Even censored.
It's so bad.
Oh, my gosh.
And then they tried to wrap him up and he's just not.
Oh, man.
That's so bad.
I hope nobody was late for their flight because of a naked guy.
It's just some...
I had to see it so you did too.
A dude drove his vehicle in the ocean ignoring a closed access gate.
He looks like a kind of like a party.
This is Volusio County.
And he's a 49-year-old guy.
He drove around a closed beach access gate and then drove right in straight up into the ocean.
Drove right into the ocean.
No idea.
Did his maps tell him to?
Yeah, I mean, I was like kind of, he just drove it right in there.
He ignored the gate.
It was that new smear in a beach.
He ignored the closed access gate.
He said he wanted to drive to the beach.
Okay, well, you got to the beach and then you just kept going.
49-year-old Jason.
Oh, wow.
Lots of consonants in here.
three Zs
Bruzeskowitz
Right
Brzezikowitz
Walked away from a lifeguard
He was on the scene
In case there was a medical emergency
This said the beach
Was close to traffic
Because of high tide
And he failed to pay the fee
To access the beach
So he's got faces charges
Of failing to pay the fee
Bonded
He bonded out for $200
His vehicle was towed
But he has the
I don't know what is with his hair
It's bad
It's just
It doesn't look good
It was a truck
and he told deputies he just wanted to surf
and that it wasn't his fault that
the quote truck don't surf.
It's got that beach blown look.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, there you go.
All right.
So there he faces some charges there.
These people today with us.
And then, oh, there's more.
This is crazy.
A Florida man fleas and faces multiple charges
after a driver was killed in this crash.
This comes from Pascoe News.
Citrus County.
Florida. One man was killed another injured. It was a high speed head on collision. The
person killed was a 69-year-old Florida resident. The driver, a 42-year-old man from Beverly
Hills got minor injuries. According to Florida Highway Patrol, the suspect was driving at a high
rate of speed, passing traffic on the shoulder, and he hit a Honda Accord, sending that
across the meeting and right into oncoming traffic. The Honda struck a bridge rail, then another
truck, and then that resulted in the driver's fatal injuries. It, I mean, and as a
absolute mess. This is just a mess. The investigation is ongoing into the crash, but they said the guy
fled on scene, fled the scene on foot after the crash, but he was apprehended by deputies at an
nearby gas station. So he's got DUI manslaughter, vehicular homicide, leaving the scene of an accident
with a death, leaving the scene of an accident with injuries, and driving with a suspended license
with death. So that's like driving with a suspended license then, oh, it also caused someone to die.
Then you get with death, I guess, tacked on to that as well. Oh my gosh, those are a lot of charges.
He's going to go away for a while.
By the way, you guys can stop sending me.
God love you.
I love my Florida listeners.
I don't need you all to send me the Villages story anymore of the guy who got discharged from the hospital after he...
Yeah, he jiggled his bits.
We had this story.
Here's how you guys are trying to get me to read it again on air.
They're like, oh, there's a development here, though.
He got released.
You should probably read this again.
They're clever.
Yeah, I'm war on.
you guys. We're on to you out there. I'm not doing it. They're like, here's a, you know what,
this is what Florida, Florida listener Laura said, here's an update to the jiggler.
I'm not even dealing with y'all anymore. We have our third hour on the way. Stick with us.
I mean, he doesn't want a solution. He wants a scapegoat. And he thinks that he knows how to run
against Mexicans and run against immigrants and rapists other than himself, of course.
And that's the kind of campaign he wants to run. It really is in the gutter. And the shocking
thing is how much he's dragged the whole Republican Party down. And we're talking about
Abraham Lincoln's party. It was an anti-slavery, pro-union, pro-freedom, pro-reason party.
Democrat rep. I'm like halfway asleep listening to him. He's so boring.
He's so boring.
He's such a boring guy to listen to.
He says Trump wants to run against Mexican immigrants and rapists other than himself.
Welcome back to the program.
Top of this third hour, Dana Lash with you.
Is that what he thinks immigrants are?
See, when they try to get one over on someone, they end up kicking themselves in their own backside.
Where's his do-rag at?
Yeah, that Kane wants to know.
All he's missing is this leather jacket with it.
Don't be doing that.
Don't wear that do-rag with a suit.
It's just, no.
You're not fetterman.
stop it.
Here's, if the Republicans were smart,
if today's Republicans were smart,
they would be talking about
the e-pluribus unum
value of immigration.
Case in point. I wanted to play for you, this flashback
audio of Reagan. Now, granted, under Reagan,
he ended up when he lost the majority in the house, they ended up pushing
amnesty through. There was a couple things that
happened after Reagan lost majority. I get it. They did a lot of good stuff, though,
when Republicans had majority. This was his final speech that he made, and I want you to
listen. It's only 30-some seconds. This is a flashback. And this is what Republicans,
this is how they should be messaging. Listen to this. Since this is the last speech that I will
give as president, I think it's fitting to leave one final thought, an observation about a country
which I love. It was stated best in a letter I received not long ago. A man
wrote me and said, you can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman. You can go to
live in Germany or Turkey or Japan, but you cannot become a German, a Turk, or Japanese. But anyone
from any corner of the earth can come to live in America and become an American. This is E pluribus
Unum. Out of many won. This is exactly what this is. This is the strength of the United States.
It's that bonding, unifying, animating spirit of liberty.
Do not be cowed into thinking it's anything but.
Here's the problem with CRT.
And I want you to realize that we've heard,
I understand that you've heard so much about diversity and diversity,
and it's not really diversity when the left talks about diversity.
They don't mean diversity of thought.
They don't mean diversity of faith.
They don't mean diversity of political belief.
they talk about diversity of things that you don't control, really.
You know, what your skin color is, how you're raised, like things like things that they can use as a substitute for the economy and class warfare.
That's what CRT is, a way to box everyone up into these little silos and keep everyone separate and disorganized and ununited.
And so the idea of Ipluribusunum is that everyone comes together under the flag of liberty.
And that's a pretty powerful identity.
When that's your first identity in the United States, and is that we're free?
That's a pretty powerful identity.
And so when you hear the left talk about diversity, don't be baited into thinking that this is
somehow semantics a substitute for diversity. It's not. That's not what people are talking about.
Reagan isn't saying, oh, it's diversity that people here. It's our diversity. That's our strength.
It's our wanting to be free. That's our strength. Everyone just happens to be diverse.
Because the desire to be free knows no ethnicity and it knows no religion and it knows no sex and it knows no boundary.
people who want to be free, this is something that that surpasses every other identifying factor.
That's what this is.
This is how Republicans ought to be messaging about immigration.
We practice the e-pluribus unum approach that the founders of this nation, when drafting our founding documents, that they laid down as the, as,
the foundation of our country. E. Pluribus Unum. Many from all over, one here under liberty.
That is the identity. And we want to be one with people who come here seeking to live free,
to become American citizens, and to add, not just to the valuation of our country, but to the great
historical culture of from anyone. That's the messaging Republicans should have. That's what they should
be pushing. And they should say, and we as a sovereign entity, just as every other sovereign entity,
we chart our own path and we set these determinations. It is our God-given right to do so.
and force Democrats to attack liberty and that uniting spirit instead of all these other stuff.
I mean, that's the whole point of it.
But their messaging is just, where is it?
Where's their messaging?
I mean, where is their messaging on that?
And so this is, I just, that's the way that they should be approaching all of this.
But they don't.
And now we find ourselves in the,
weird position of now, oh, we're going to try to make another run at this. We're going to try to
and we hear the administration constantly blaming everything on Republicans.
So this was what, audio sound by three, a reporter asked KJP. You know, doesn't he bear some
responsibility for all of this? Right? And, well, you can guess what the answer was. Listen.
At the feet of Donald Trump, the former president, he's the current occupant of the local office.
doesn't he bear some responsibility he didn't engage with House Republicans he
negotiated with the Senate but not the House the other branch of the legislative
branch you know where is he taking responsibility here the President has has
taking this issue incredibly seriously from day one he heard us say this over and over
again heard this from the president on the first day of his administration he said
he said I'm gonna put forward a legislation a comprehensive immigration
legislation that was introduced more than three years ago.
More than three years ago.
And they have failed to act.
Failed to act.
Hmm.
Failed to act on what?
And it wasn't a comprehensive legislation that they put forward.
He had executive orders that he pushed.
And then they wrote up this ridiculous plan that they had people like James
Langford kind of co-sign on to.
By the way, James Langford was on the floor.
I mean, it sounds like he's kind of trying to.
cry victim. Listen to this. This was just on the floor a little earlier. Some of them may have
policy differences. Some of them have been very clear with me. They have political differences
with the bill. They say it's the wrong time to solve the problem or let the presidential
election solve this problem. In fact, I had a popular commentator four weeks ago that I talked to
that told me flat out before they knew any of the contents of the bill, any of the content,
nothing was out at that point, that told me flat out, if you try to move a bill that solves
the border crisis during this presidential year, I will do whatever I can to destroy you.
Because I do not want you to solve this during the presidential election.
I don't believe that last part was said.
By the way, they have been faithful to their promise and have done everything they can
to destroy me. I don't believe that last part at all. And it's, I mean, you're talking, I don't know
who that would be. He's talking about a commentator that said that that wouldn't be unusual, but I don't
believe the whole, well, you know, if you try to solve this during an election, probably, you're not
solving it, though. You're making it worse is the thing. And don't play victim now. The real victim,
it's not you. I mean, good grief. Only, I really want to believe that he's a good guy, and I'm trying
not to make this personal. But when you get up there and you play victim, you know, the real
victims are all the people that have had to live with us. The real victims are the people like in
McCallon, Texas, and in Del Rio and everywhere else along the border, Eagle Pass, everybody that's had
to live with this for how many years now? That's had to live with the cartel crossing their land.
That's had to find kids on their property after being dumped by coyotes.
Towns that have seen their population swell by sometimes 10,000, 20,000. Or the border age
that are working overtime, barely seeing their families covering sometimes 100 square miles.
That's their whole entire area, one guy.
Those are the real victims here.
The taxpayers that are having to pay stipends to people who cross illegally.
Taxpayer funded phones.
Taxpayers like in Denver that are probably going to get shoulder with that $30 million hospital bill
that was run up by all of the illegal immigrants that came in illegally and then went to Denver,
and then went to go seek medical treatment and then weren't able to pay the bill and now they have, now they're in the red.
Those are the real victims here.
Not the guy who in his cushy D.C. office co-wrote one of the worst immigration bills I've ever seen.
Not the guy who okayed a bill that strips from circuit courts and strips from states the ability to challenge these federal moves in their local federal courts.
and consolidates it all the way in a leftist D.C. district court.
No, the guy who wrote that and okayed it and went out and defended it is not the victim here.
We don't do victim politics on the Republican side.
That's just inexcusable.
At least own it.
Well, they told me, you know what?
I called you a eunuch.
I think that that's probably worse.
And I told you that I called him that on national television and it's true.
We have more on the way.
we've got headlines coming up.
And then going towards the bottom of the hour,
Tucker Carlson's in Russia.
And the way that the leftist media has been reacting about this is, well, very telling.
We're going to talk about it.
And now, all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So a time traveler who claims to have visited 2027 says that humanity becomes extinct.
Yay!
That's my hope.
Wait, I'm not supposed to say that out loud.
Right.
Yeah.
Apparently, a guy said that humans are going to become extinct in the future.
He's apparently a self-professed time warper.
He shared videos of his supposed trips to 2027.
Were they the vaccinated people?
I don't know.
He says, deserted supermarkets, roads, football stadiums, and landmarks like the leaning tower of Pisa.
And apparently lighting and the internet don't seem to be affected, which I'm going to call some shenanigans on.
Uh, yeah, so that's it.
He, I think that this is all dumb and I don't believe any of it, but he, you know, but still, don't tease us with a good time.
Don't do that.
Apparently, phone service providers are getting closer to phasing out the landlines.
We, we were just talking about this the other day.
Uh, the landline is, uh, getting closer to extinct.
How are they going to survey people now anymore for the polls?
How are they going to do that?
How are you going to read political polls
comprised entirely of people who still have landlines
and answer them in the middle of the day?
I don't know.
AT&T applied for a waiver
that would allow it to stop servicing
traditional landlines in California.
They said they want to be operational
and newer infrastructure within the next few years.
So, I don't know.
I mean, it doesn't make sense to even have them anymore,
but, you know, I don't know, some people do.
They just, they do.
Let's see here.
A woman found municipal bonds worth a million dollars
at an estate sale, and the city
refuses to pay.
Interesting.
Mountain Grove.
They found these, yeah, these bonds
and the city's just not going to, they're not going to pay.
That's it. It's behind a paywall, so I'm not going to,
I'm not going to go further.
I'm not going to, mm-hmm.
Nobody wants to read your stupid article.
Stray sheep were wandering Brooklyn streets and caught by cops.
Or were they Democrat voters?
Yeah.
How does sheep get out in Brooklyn?
There was like a actual sheep on the streets of Brooklyn.
NYPD called her and she went to an animal sanctuary.
The fugitive farm animal.
It was 1 p.m. Saturday at Sunset Park.
Somebody said that there was a sheep hiding behind the bushes.
There was a call that came in 9-1.
Somebody called 911.
God love them.
They handed the sheep over to Animal Care of New York City
and then the animal was on its way to Skylane Sanctuary in New Jersey.
And apparently they say it's, they were able to get her.
And she was, they said, very nice and very sweet.
She had no holes, no tags or anything.
but that's uh so she's gonna she's gonna go to this little animal sanctuary she's gonna be quarantined
and then join 47 other sheep at this sanctuary in new jersey so there you go it's a place that
apparently takes stray farm animals to new york city and they have a 232 acre sanctuary it sounds
like heaven they he took the 700 pound bull that went viral after it was uh this is back in
December remember the bull that was running around newark he took that bull this guy who runs this
animal sanctuary took that bull so
That's really good. I want to do that.
I just want to have a bunch of random animals.
You know, like sheep and cows that get away and all that kind of stuff.
I'd like to, yeah, I mean, I could do that.
I'd like to do that.
All right.
Also, let's see here.
This, millennials ditch your wallets.
Gen Z says you're old if you still have a wallet.
Why are we listening to a generation that only half of them pay taxes?
I don't care.
I like wallets.
I mean, I actually carry a little bitty, tiny one because I don't really carry a
any cash or anything, although I do like it, but they say no. Gen Z, I guess I don't follow
this stuff like this, but apparently wallets made a comeback with millennials, and now Gen Z are
making fun of millennials for carrying wallets. Who does this? Stop it. Get, you know what? I was
going to say something mean. I didn't do this to you. Boomers did, but, you know, they can probably
afford houses better than you. Oh, oh, I'm just here to watch the fight between the generations
that don't include Gen X. Stick with us. Ready to grow your
or intellectual RolidX,
download the Dana Show podcast
and join the ranks of those
who refuse to settle
for the same old boring content
on Apple, Spotify,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
Senator McCona,
Senator Ted Cruz had a press conference
around noon today,
said that you shouldn't have even
tried to negotiate with Democrats,
said this bill was designed to fail,
and that it's time for you to step down
as GOP leader. What's your response to that?
I think we can all agree
that Senator Cruz is
Not a fan.
Yeah.
You know, and not a fan.
And honestly, it's, we're going to, I don't want to sit here and have these little squabbles within the party when we're trying to get ahead for November.
We can't even get, I mean, we're not even going to be able to can't even get on the same page with stuff.
Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you, bottom of this third hour.
I still think Jennifer Van Lahr, who did the big expo,
about the horrible spending and management of the RNC.
I think she's the one who chased,
she's the one who got Ronna McDaniel to step down.
I mean, that's exactly it.
She is the one who got Ronna McDaniel to step down at this point.
I mean, good grief.
The amount of money that they spent on every,
they spent, just get out the vote texts.
They spent more on the,
limousines, more on office supplies, double on limousines, double on office supplies, actually more than
double, double on floral arrangements, and only $86,000 on get out the vote text. The DNC spent
$1.6 million on get out the vote texts. R&C spent $86,000. Voter file maintenance, this is so
important. These are the two important things that really are, it's their only job.
The RNC spent $39,233.50 on voter file maintenance to compare.
And this is making sure that all of the voter, all your donors, all the people who voted for you,
the people that you can count on, that all of their information is correct and that you're able to go back and do voter outreach relatively easy.
I mean, maintaining this information of making sure it's accurate and up to date is incredibly important.
The RNC spent $39,000 on it.
The DNC, by comparison, spent nearly $236,000 on it.
I mean, this is ridiculous.
These are people who want to be the new establishment.
And consultants, they spent over a million dollars on consultants, whereas the DNC spent just $114,000.
A lot of what's been happening on the right is there is a lot of money to be made that gets shoveled.
around to all of these different groups, but none of these groups are moving the needle.
I see people like making fat bank, but I don't see any of these people moving the needle.
There are a lot of donations going out to some of these big groups that have big glitzy things
and they make a big show of things, but I never see them canvassing.
I never see them doing anything door to door.
They're never involved in any fight except superficially where they'll make some videos,
They'll put some stuff on Insta.
They might put some things on TikTok or Facebook or X, and that's kind of it.
And then they give speeches and they go on TV and then that's kind of like all they do.
They are, you don't see them at fundraisers unless it's for their own group.
You don't see them in anything.
And I know this because I see it all.
They do all.
This is where the money goes.
And then where are the results to show for it?
with all of the money that's being spent towards some of these groups, why can't they move the needle?
And then when you look at the consultants, RNC spent, I mean, you're looking at getting near $1.2 million.
DNC spent $114,000.
Now, the DNC is corrupt in other ways.
I'm not sitting, this is not to say that the DNC is somehow pristine.
I mean, they're corrupt, but they're corrupt in other ways.
They're smart about it.
the RNC is using their political party and a lot of this is like a talent agency for people who want to be
commentators or professional activists and by professional activists I mean people who just make videos
and then they treat the digital medium like a movie screen that's it you know what I'm talking
about it's like an uncomfortable conversation that people on the right don't want to have I don't
I don't see these people in these fights.
I don't see them.
I don't see all these people with these shiny marquies.
I don't see them in the fight.
I don't see them moving the needle.
What's the point?
We're creating like a sub-Hollywood class for con ink.
It's weird.
People who are in politics, they get influence from their life experience, their work experience,
their ability to be able to manage their affairs, manage their families,
manage their families and just be good, hardworking, productive citizens.
That's at least how it should be.
I think what happens is that the right has become so disillusioned with Hollywood.
They decided to create themselves their own Hollywood as a sub-DC class.
Oh, well, let's look at the politics of it.
Let's make that a thing.
I mean, I like infotainment as much as the next person,
but then there's taking policy and making it entertainment,
which I don't like because now we're all suffering the consequence of it.
and we're seeing the results.
We've been racking up L's since 2016.
You know, Carrie Lake isn't raising any money.
I was looking at some of the fundraising data from like friendlies,
like people who were saying, oh my gosh,
she's like having a big issue with fundraising.
And she's not the only one.
There's some others too.
I want to pick smart candidates.
I want to pick smart candidates who have been in,
had skin in the game and have been in the movement a long time.
This is another thing with the right.
The right is so desperate for a Messiah to come and save them.
They don't realize that they can do the work themselves.
You don't need like a recent convert from the left or from, you know, Los Angeles or something like that to come in and tell you what needs to be done.
You know what needs to be done.
I don't know why we rushed to crown these people.
Like the whole thing with Kanye West, when the right was falling all over itself for Kanye West and then, oh, shocker.
I mean, you all didn't see that coming?
We're smarter than this.
But we get these people that have no skin in the game that have voted Democrat and then they only turn around.
I'm all four converts.
But that doesn't make, you don't make them generals of your movement.
They got to fight with you a little bit in the trench first, don't they?
You don't turn around and make them generals of your movement just because they just recently switched.
What is it like a damn participation trophy?
Come on.
I'm looking at all this stuff in the RNC.
They were using this as like a big, oh, giant slush fund.
And it's hysterical to me to see some of these other groups criticize the RNC's funding because I'm like, you know, you all wouldn't want your books to be opened.
Especially some of these groups that don't move the needle.
So I hate all of this stuff.
I don't like going to the cocktail parties.
I don't like going to the gala's.
I don't like doing any of that dumb stuff because it's meaningless.
It's where people go to, it's a giant celebratory circle, philating circle.
I don't know what you want to ever you want to call it.
It's stupid.
It's an exercise in vanity.
If you need attention, get a dog.
They'll give you attention all day long.
So Politico reported that this was last night, that McDaniels stepping down.
And then they had the announcement that was made to staff yesterday morning, apparently.
And they said, yeah, and then they had the one guy, one of the guys who was the RNC chair,
he said yes he's going to leave and focus on his growing family oh you know i mean he's got a wife
and kids and he didn't realize that he needed to spend time with his wife and kids until this big
expose came out about how he can't manage along with rana macdainail money at the rnc wow wow this
big scandals reminded me that i need to go spend more time with my wife and kids is there going to
be any accountability with you no there's not they're going to get some other moron to run the rnc
that's exactly what's going to happen don't give money to the rnc give it to individual
It's, of course, that puts you under, you know, different FEC guidelines and you've got different
limitations.
But you need to realize that a lot of, and these groups have done it to themselves, a lot of
these PACs, a lot of these committees, they're just, it's just wild.
It's a big grifting circus.
And the RNC got so mad at Jen Van Laar because she was doing this reporting.
And it was all correct.
It was all correct.
This is a bad time for the identity of the Republican Party.
They need to figure out what they want to do.
they need to figure out what it is they want to do.
Do they want to win or do they want to be like influencers?
I don't get it.
Do they want to win and move the needle or do they want to get in and canvas and actually go and persuade people?
Do they want to act like hard asses online and keep looking like weak, you know, weak suckers in meat space because they keep losing elections?
I mean, you know, what is it?
But they got to do something.
And these state parties are a mess.
I don't even know what our get out the vote efforts look like.
Do we even know what the, do we even know what the planning for that is?
With such little attention spent on voter record maintenance, I'm terrified to even think.
But you know what?
You know whose voter record maintenance is all good?
All these other, these other parasitic groups that are just hanging on.
Gosh, that's what it all is.
It's sad.
I don't want to be so mean about it, but it's, but it's,
It's true.
This is like our, you know, it's important because this is our big chance here to write this ship.
Maybe one of our last big chances.
And we're just messing it all up.
I like what this guy says.
One of our listeners, Adrian, he goes, the GOP loves to take the newly born again Christian and put them in the pulpit.
It's true.
I mean, nobody's turning away recent converts, but you don't make them a general.
It's like saying, would you get a member of the opposing military?
and not only put them in with your military,
but then have them as a general?
No, you wouldn't.
So why would you do that with your entire movement and ideology?
Do you see what I'm saying?
That's what I'm saying.
Doesn't make any sense.
Not at all.
We have more on the way as we wrap up this third hour of our program.
And, of course, we're keeping our eye on everything else.
Goodness.
Yeah, Lorraine notes that R&C spent more money on Instacart deliveries
for office supplies.
Then they did on voter file maintenance.
Oh, my gosh.
This is so crazy.
Follow Dana on Apple, Spotify,
or wherever you get your podcasts,
because knowledge is your ultimate superpower.
There is some movement,
and I don't want to choose my words.
There's some movement.
There's been a response from the,
there's better response
from the opposition
you mean Hamas? Yes, I'm sorry
from Hamas. But it seems to be
a little over the top. We're not sure where it is. There's a continuing negotiation right now.
What?
It's the president, guys, president of the United States.
Uh, yeah, he meant to say Hamas.
He couldn't remember it.
He couldn't, he couldn't remember.
That's a potatoes.
It is.
I was thinking of potatoes because do you know that you can actually get,
okay, I'm going to switch gears here real quick.
Why can you buy packages of funeral potatoes on Amazon?
Yeah.
You guys know what I'm talking about?
They call it that.
It's like, uh, it's basically like a, like a, like a cheesy,
and tady casserole.
Yeah.
And they call it funeral potatoes.
Right.
And they sell it like on...
Wait, the recipe?
Or the recipe? No.
Like pre-cooked.
Ready to go?
Yeah.
I do mine with like hash browns and tady chips.
I do.
People use what corn flakes too?
Yeah, you can use corn flakes.
You can use all kinds of stuff.
It's a baked potato casserole is what it is.
Some people, they have it chunky.
some some some some yeah i've done it chunky and i've also used chunks and uh crispy hash browns on top
and then with tady chips and that uh-huh yeah it's still it's so not healthy it's horrible it's basically
a starch dish entirely starch but my thing is is is somebody sent this to me and was like why is this
on amazon and then i looked it up and it's actually you can it's like the food's like what what
what first off they call it funeral potatoes
It's just a potato casserole.
But they call it funeral potatoes because it's like, I guess, the dish that, you know, everybody brings at the, you know, visitation potluck or something, you know.
So in the marketing meeting, they had to say that the term funeral potatoes would sell more casserole than calling it potato casserole.
Apparently.
Somebody had to make that decision.
I mean, it's, it's, it's just a potato casserole.
But people are freaking out because they're like, oh, funeral potatoes.
It's just, it's just literally a, it's a potato casserole.
It's a cheesy tavy casserole.
It's all it is.
It's not funeral, but the fact that you buy a bag of it, you're a lie as a person.
If you buy a bag of funeral potatoes and you stuff it into like a Pyrex dish, that is a lie.
Shh.
what in the
it's like the easiest thing
on God's Green Earth to make
right what if I just want
potato cassero
I don't want to go to a funeral or anything
yeah then you just make it
right
you just make it I mean I have
we have a teddy cassero
and we're normal
so we call it potato cassero I mean
our families those aren't
we call potato cassero
I don't know why it got the name
funeral potatoes
is that like a millennial
or gen baby thing
I don't know what is it
I guess they took it to funerals
well yeah but like how to
well why did it get that name
It's been around forever.
I've never been to like a funeral,
you know, after the funeral.
I've seen it more at potluck.
Yeah, exactly.
Like potlucks for church and stuff.
I've never not seen it there.
Yeah, every time it's at potluck for church.
You got that, you got the green bean casserole.
We should just call it potluck potatoes.
Yeah, potluck potato.
It's just potato cassero.
Right.
But I mean, it's just as valid.
But think about it, though.
Like, are you going to, if you know, you're going to a potluck, what are these funeral potatoes?
What?
I don't know.
why does that strikes me so much it does okay today in stupidity cane well it's our vice president
Kamala harris oh this is my favorite thing today so far ever her her speeches are like
could say this all right listen to what she says here and i have been fortunate and blessed
during the course of being vice president yeah have many situations where it becomes clear to me
that yeah there are you know people of every age and gender by the way who see something like
about being the first that lets them know they don't need to be limited by other people's limited.
Oh, what is she saying?
That's our vice president, everybody.
I'm so confused.
That does it for our program.
I know.
We're going to leave you in total confusion.
That does it for our show today.
