To clarify for our viewers, Springfield, Ohio does have a large number of Haitian migrants who have legal status, temporary protected status. Well, Marga, but- Thank you. Senator, we have so much to get to. Margaret, I think it's important because- We're going to turn out of the economy, thank you. Margaret, the rules were that you guys weren't going to fact-check, and since you're fact-checking me, I think it's important to say what's actually going on. So there's an application called the CBP-1 app, where you can go on as an illegal migrant, apply for asylum, or apply for asylum, for parole and be granted legal status at the wave of a Kamala Harris open border wand.

That is not a person coming in, applying for a green card and waiting for 10 years. That is the facilitation of a legal immigration, Margaret, by our own leadership. And we have so much to get to, Senator. Those laws have been on the book since 1990. Thank you, gentlemen. The CBB has not been on the books. It's since 1990. It's something that Donald Harris created, Margaret.

Gentlemen, the audience can't hear you because your mics are cut. We have so much we want to get to. Thank you for explaining the legal process. Nora. Thank you, Margaret. The economy is... Well, because she is condescending. I mean, so I watched this debate.

I didn't want to. I'm not going to lie, because I wasn't looking forward to it. I wasn't expecting any, you know, humding her moments out of it. And I watched this debate. and I don't know Did we learn anything? I don't know But I thought the moderators It will I will say this

I thought it was actually a particularly Polite debate Believe it or not I can say that It was a particularly polite debate But that moment When they cut him off And he's trying to correct

How things are recorded on that CPB app which we've talked about Here before in the space When we've had on Border Patrol members And you know we've talked about it before. And it's a, I mean, he's, he's, he's correct. Because if you're going to fact check somebody, you know, if you're going to be the moderators and you're going to fact check someone, then you need to be accurate when you're doing it. You know, you can't, you can't

just be blowing smoke at your backside. You need to be accurate when you're doing it. And I mean, clearly, I don't think that they were. And that was, I think, one of, I mean, there were several moment in that debate where they would ask waltz a question and they would load it up so as to protect him because any kind of pushback

you know he would he would crumple on he looked nervous when he walked out there he did he looked and you could say otherwise he looked nervous he was rattled if you get the the substack newsletter I talked about all of that in there how I thought you know he looked like he was already

tweaked. I didn't get the jazz hands, you know, opening that I really wanted, but, you know, whatever. You know, not everything can be about me, I guess. And he just, he just, um, he just looked goofy, I thought. And he, he also needs to be told when he is

on stage. He needs to be made aware of the fact that the camera, when you're on stage, even when you are, you know, you're not the one talking and you know that the camera is on your opponent. And they had to tell him that it was a side by side, right? Didn't they tell him you think that it was a side? Because it was like he wasn't aware of his own expression when he was on.

It was like he wasn't aware of what his face was doing when he was on camera. And I just think that that looks weird. And I just feel like that made him, it just made him look goofy and it just didn't make him look prepared. I don't know. I mean, we're going to dive into all of this. And I'm going to tell you what I thought the best and worst moments were what I think that this means. I don't think that this moves the needle at all for any, you know, the presidential candidates. I really don't. But I also think there's a couple of other things in play that extend beyond 2024. And there were a couple of disappointments. And I'm going to be really honest about this stuff. So welcome to the program first and foremost, Dana Lash with you. And we're at the top of this. this first hour, Channel 347 Direct TV, you can also find us on Rumble, et cetera, et cetera, all that good stuff. I, so I watched the debate, and again, if you get the newsletter, I sent this out in the sub-sec newsletter that I, you know,

if you sign up for it, so you've got my early impressions of this debate. So you kind of know where I'm going with some of this. Because I was, I don't think that Tim Walts made a, I don't think he made a major problem for himself except with two gaffs. And I do feel like you know, he just he could have gotten all wound up

and I think that he has the potential for someone to make him mad but he didn't take that bait. I thought that he didn't, I thought that he didn't take the bait. He didn't go into getting ticked off when he could have. And he kind of kept his cool for the most part, right?

And I just think that, well, we're going to play some of the audio. Let's play some of the other. Because this was his worst moment, the China stuff. Listen to this. This is when he was asked about China. Audio sound by three. This was wild. Watch this.

Give a minute. Governor, you say trust the experts. But those same experts for 40 years said that if we shipped our manufacturing base off to China, we'd get cheaper goods. They lied about that. They said if we shipped our industrial base off to other countries to Mexico and elsewhere, it would make the middle class stronger. They were wrong about that.

They were wrong about the idea that if we made America less self-reliant, less productive in our own nation, that it would somehow make us better off, and they were wrong about it. And for the first time in a generation, Donald Trump had the wisdom and the courage to say to that bipartisan consensus, we're not doing it anymore. We're bringing American manufacturing back. We're unleashing American energy. We're going to make more of our own stuff.

And this isn't just an economic issue. And I've got three beautiful little kids at home, 7, 4, and 2. And I love them very much. And I hope they're in bed right now. But look, so many of the drugs, the pharmaceuticals that we put in the bodies of our children are manufactured by nations that hate us. This has to stop. And we're not going to stop it by listening to experts. So he's talking about China.

And then, well, I wanted the Waltz one. When Waltz kind of just like falls apart on this is audio. Yeah, audio somebody says this is a long. one, though. Can we just get the part where he's like I misspoke, and we'll play the full one later, because it's already 12 minutes into this segment, and I don't want to play a minute, and God help me, 2.45, I'm not going to play that whole segment. That needs to be way shorter. This, but he, like, he, he, he completely fell apart on it. He completely fell apart when he was asked about it. He got pushed one time, and he, and he just fell apart when he was asked about

China. And we're going to, we'll get that when we got it queued up. Do you have it? Go ahead and hit this. Governor, just to follow up on that, the question was, can you, explain the discrepancy. All I said on this was is I got there that summer and misspoke on this. So I will just, that's what I've said. So I was in Hong Kong and China during the democracy protest went in. And from that, I learned a lot of what needed to be in governance. All right. Well, let's cut this because I wanted the video of them on there also for the simulcast. We'll go back into this. There's a huge part of the huge part of it, but we can't play two minutes and 45 seconds. The we're going to get into some of the issues that they that they, that they, I thought each of them flubbed on. I thought that Vance wiped the floor with them on immigration and I thought he wiped the floor with them on the economy as well. Uh, the CBS news post debate poll said it was close, but Van Wants won. And I said to in the, uh, in my rundown, I thought that Vance won on. I thought his substance was better. And I felt his substance was better. And I also thought that he did make any, he didn't make any, he didn't make any, he didn't make.

make any gaffes, major gaffes, like Wals did. I thought that there were two points that Vance performed very poorly. Guns and abortion. And I'm going to deep dive into those. And I don't, when I'm evaluating a Republican candidate, I don't just evaluate them next to the Republican. I evaluate them knowing what the GOP can serve and the standards that I have for my candidates. And I think anybody can look great next to a sack of potatoes like Tim Walz. I thought Vance was, he's a great debater. I thought that his biggest opponent on that stage was the moderators. I thought he handled them very well. He would answer the question how he wanted to answer and then he would bring it back around to the original question ask, repeat that question and then answer it after he set the

context. That was very well done. He did that throughout the night. I thought that he flood the abortion answer. I thought that that was actually his worst answer. He was not prepared enough and familiar enough with the cases that Wals cited so as to quickly, efficiently, and without question, shut those cases down. And we've covered, Lorraine's got piece after piece up on Substack, Chapter and Verse, where we've gone through those individuals that Tim Wals brought up. Those weren't cases. Those weren't abortion cases. It was medical malpractice. And two of the women that he cited had taken the birth control, the abortion pill. The one woman, particularly that Wall cited three times, took not one but two abortion pills.

She waited hours after she started experiencing the consequential side effects that everybody warns about with this pill. And then she waited hours to go to the hospital. But at that time, sepsis had already set in, had set in. And she was bleeding and she was in bad shape. So that has nothing to do with abortion and whether or not it's run by the states. That was her taking the abortion pill, two of them, her not. seeking medical care. And then for whatever reason, even though she had no viable life inside of her

at all whatsoever, the staff at that hospital was slow to do anything. And it wasn't because there was any kind of law preventing them for doing so. And so I felt if Vance was better prepared on those cases, he would have shut that down. And so I thought that that was a disappointing moment. Those two answers, though, deserve their own segment. We're going to talk about that after headlines. I also thought that the couple of different, as it relates to immigration, this was audio soundbite 4. Someone finally asks about those missing kids. Listen. So first of all, Margaret, before we talk about deportations, we have to stop the bleeding. We have a historic immigration crisis because Kamala Harris started and said that she wanted to

undo all of Donald Trump's border policies. 94 executive orders, suspending deportations, decriminalizing illegal aliens, massively increasing the asylum fraud that exists in our system. That has opened the floodgates. And what it's meant is that a lot of fentanyl is coming into our country. I had a mother who struggled with opioid addiction and has gotten clean. I don't want people who are struggling with addiction to be deprived of their second chance, because Kamala Harris led in fentanyl into our communities at record levels. So you've got to stop the bleeding. You've got to re-implement Donald Trump's border policies, build the wall, re-implement deportations. And that gets me to your point, Margaret, about what do we actually do?

So we've got 20, 25 million illegal aliens who are here in the country. What do we do with them? I think the first thing that we do is we start with the criminal migrants. About a million of those people have committed some form of crime in addition to crossing the border illegally. And he brought, And he brought it back to the original question. It's a long bite. But he brought it back to the original question. And that was good because he set the context and then he would bring it back. You set the context and then you would bring it back.

By the way, a couple of people asked me about the screenshots that were on the substack, my newsletter post. That literally was from last night. Those were walls is looking like a loon. That's not Photoshopped. Can you watch it? You can attest. He was like totally unaware of what he looked like on camera. Oh my gosh.

the memes. So we've got a lot to deep dive in. We're also going to give you the latest on Iran versus Israel. And we're going to also dive into the Hurricane Helene aftermath. We've got that for you as well. We've got, like I said, the hurricane relief. We've got Israel, Iran, the debate, the election. I've got a couple of new polls for you. Nothing's going to be on this. And I don't think the VP thing is really going to move anything. I do think it's going to help with Namark Ignition for each of those candidates. So we'll discuss that. But We're going to deep dive into the best and worst answers coming up because I'm a little concerned about two of the answers because there are major issues for the right. Major issues like keystone issues for the right.

Life can take a toll on our bodies. There's no way around it. And whether it's just sitting for hours on end at your computer or if you're working a physical job, over time your body pays the price.

Try it for only 1995 and turn back the clock on pain with Relief Factor. ReliefFactor.com. And now, all of the news you would probably miss.

It's time for Dana's Quick Five. So I thought this was funny because they are saying now that Gen X is the most stressed generation alive, but they're also the best at handling it. And we're also called the coolest generation. Just got to say, Gen X, people who are born between 65 and 79. I'm there. I'm there, so stop gatekeeping.

I barely got in, but I'm there. Stop it. It's official. And I just cited this very official news article, Kane. It's America's goofy middle children sandwiched between the boomers and millennials. And Gen X is all individualistic, nonconformist. I mean, you know, we did punk zines and text articles. up so everybody can step off. It's a loof cool, right? But they're also really self, we're the latchkey kids.

According to one marketing study, Gen X went through its all important formative years is one of the least parented, least nurtured generations in U.S. history. It was the first generation that experienced both parents working outside the home. So we had to be self-sufficient for survival. That's why we can handle stress. And in Gen X fashion, we don't like to let people see that we are stressed. That's a huge study, and they're totally correct. This is weird. A long-lost seafloor discovered beneath the Pacific Ocean could rewrite Earth's history.

Are there aliens? Scientists have mapped it. They found that it was unusually thicker and cooler than the surrounding areas, which would signal aliens. The ancient seafloor challenges existing theories about Earth's interior structures that were King Kong lost down there. And anyway, it's the NASCA plate in the East Pacific Rise. so if that's, you know, your jam.

It's kind of interesting. Let's see. Oh, I don't care about this chick who left the Washington Post. She's literally nobody. Green Day was banned from Las Vegas radio stations because Billy Joe Armstrong is a D-bag. He called the city a poo hole. He didn't say it like that, but he did. And he got mad.

And I just don't know why. I feel like he's got an arrested development because he's like 70,000 years old. And he dresses like a 20-year-old in 2003. And it's just the height of cringe. It's the height of cringe. We got a lot more on the way. I can't carry everywhere I would like to carry because we got some dummies out there

who think that signs are going to protect you. Oh, I got a gun-free zone sign here. You're magically protected. Like it puts up some sort of invisible cling on shield around the whole premises, which as we all know, it does not. So in those instances, when you are barred from carrying, you would like to have another option, would you not?

So this is where the burner gun comes in. Burn a gun is a different type of non-firearm firearm. It shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can disable threats from like 50 feet away. And they have a bunch of different models. The Burna SD is the most popular model that they have. In fact, I got a couple of friends who live in D.C. and New York that got the Burna SD because they didn't want to be turned into statistics by their state. And it is the Burnett SD is the best selling self-defense option.

There's no background checks. There's no waiting periods. It's legal in all 50 states. It ships right to your front porch. and like I said, five round capacity on this Burna SD. Stung guns, you got one or two shots. Burna, you got five.

Chemical irritant projectiles. And like I said, it'll disable a threat from up to 50 feet away. Learn more about the burner gun. Visit burna.com slash Dana for 10% off of your purchase. That's B.R.N.A. Check out your less, check out these other options that you have,

It's, they're smacking an unfortunate person up is what this song is titled. And, you know, it made me think of, I thought of this video and I thought of this song when I was thinking of this Doug Emhoff story. Of course you know I was going to go there. Welcome back to the show. It's Dana Lash. What did you think it was? Big Bird. Kamala Harris's husband, Doug Emhoff, forcefully slapped ex-girlfriend for flirting with another man and a booze-fueled

assault after a date to a star-studded gala. Well, there's a headline. So Doug Imhoff, who's 59, slapped the woman in her face so hard she spun around while wait. This is the widest thing I've ever heard, while waiting in the valet line late at night after a May 2012 Cannes Film Festival event in France. Democrat White, by the way. One of her friends told the Daily Mail that the woman, and there's photos of them, but they've blurred out her face. The woman called him immediately after the incident, sobbing in her cab described the assault. They're not naming her. She's a successful New York attorney.

They're calling her by a pseudonym Jane. A second friend said that Jane, who had been dating Emho for three months, also told her about the alleged violence at the time. I mean, who wouldn't think of a guy who got his nanny pregnant with his first wife would slap up a chick that he's dating, you know, three months into the relationship and can. I'm just wondering. I mean, it's believe all women, right?

Are we still on that line? Are we not doing that anymore? Is it still me too? What's a woman? Yeah, I mean, they can't, conveniently, after that whole thing fell apart, they suddenly couldn't figure out how to define women, but okay. So, I mean, is it believe all women or not? Because Kamala Harris is grilling Brett Kavanaugh and being a rapist, and here you got Doug Emhoff impregnating nannies and slapping bitches up. I'm just wondering, like, what's, you know, is it believe all women or not?

I'm just curious. I got questions for a few millions of my friends. We're all wondering here. So I do think, I mean, I just feel like we got to bring that back, right? We got to bring that back because, you know, remember, Kamala Harris grilled the Everloven-Tar out of Kavanaugh. She didn't basically, she accused him of being a rapist and all this other stuff. So I feel like this is fair game, Kane. Fair Z's gamesies.

It's second to gentleman. He's redefining masculinity, don't you know, Doug Emhoff. He's redefining masculinity. You know, toxic masculinity to the left is when a man behaves chivalrously. You know, if you have chivalrous behavior, you behave in a chivalrous fashion, you know, save the world from Nazis. That's apparently considered toxic. But if you impregnate your kid's nanny while you're married to your first wife and then you slap up your girlfriend at Cannes Film Festival Valet Line, that's apparently redefining masculinity. Who knew?

I know. It's, and maybe we're in a backwards world. I don't know, but that's what, that's the deems the rules, right? Is it just me or they just keep moving the goalposts like that all the time? Yeah, I mean, you can drive a woman into a pond to die, and that's not toxic, you know, but you go liberate France from the Nazis, and there you go. Toxic masculinity, you know what I'm saying? Good night.

I just, you know, I'm going to point that out there. Just throw it out there. Redefining it. So I can't wait until she's asked about that one in the press conference that she definitely will never have or the next sit down that she totally won't have. All right. So a couple of things. I know we're going to follow the latest with the strike as well. There's lots of stuff we're following. This debate last night, good and bad. The worst moment was got to give that, got to give that ribbon to Tim Walz, who just started falling all over himself when he was asked,

well, why did you lie about China? I've never heard anyone take so long to say that they didn't lie. Listen to this. Governor, just to follow up on that, the question was, Can you explain the discrepancy? All I said on this was is I got there that summer and misspoke on this. So I will just, that's what I've said. So I was in Hong Kong and China during the democracy protest, went in. And from that, I learned a lot of what needed to be in governance. Hmm.

I mean, you could have just said that you lied. I mean, they asked him and he's like, well, it was the best of times. It was the worst. Just do. Just say that you love. lied. Well, I misspoke. You lied. And then, you know, he told on himself because he was like, you know, and I, how did he put it? I quoted it at the time. He had said, uh, at one point he was like, yeah, I, um, you know, I to, you know, sometimes get into, I slip into the rhetoric. Well, you just admitted that you lied then at that point. I mean, that's, what in the world is your damage, dude? You just admitted that you lied. That's all I got to do. All I got to say. But that was a really, that was awkward. That was a very awkward. moment for him. And there were a lot of very awkward moments. Yeah, he's, he didn't, he doesn't, he didn't have a lot of room last night except to play that, yo, you go, y'c, I'm a knucklehead stick.

But then he was like, well, I get caught up in the rhetoric. Okay, you just, just, you lied, you lied. And then he tried to cite scripture, which, as you know, if you're familiar with the Merchant of Venice, even the devil can quote scripture, but there you go. He's, um, I, I don't think that he, didn't get angry and I was actually kind of anticipating for I was waiting for him to do so because from what I know he's got a short temper and he just seems like a jack wagon he's one of those dudes right he just seems like that but he didn't take the bait and he was very disciplined in that regard and so was jd vance and jd vans you know stayed on state on point now I'm going to say something that's unpopular his answer on guns was horrible yes waltz was waltz was

Walsh's answer on guns was bad. But I wasn't impressed with J.D. Vance's either. I don't think he's a gun control guy. He's not a gun guy, though. That's evident. And would I say that he's not a gun guy? I mean, he's not a hunter. He probably doesn't shoot regularly.

I don't demand that you be a hunter or that you go out and shoot regularly in order for me to like you as a candidate. But I do demand that you agree with me on these issues relating to our enumerated rights. And I do agree. I do demand that you don't. use the language of the left. So here was the question that was asked. And we'll get into all the other stuff. But this is where I'm going to be, I'm going to call balls

and strikes on this stuff. And this is the first time Vance was really tested like this. I think on this issue. So this was, what was the, it was like 11,400 million 83 audio soundbite. The one where Nora is asking the question.

Nora O'Donnell. And first off, the question wrong. Audio sound bite 19. Go ahead and kick this one. 19,000, million. 11d, 40,000. That one. Turn now to America's gun violence epidemic. The leading cause of death for

children and teens in America is by firearm. Okay, that's wrong. And right out of the gate, when that question came in, that should have immediately been established and it wasn't. Why is that wrong? Here's why that question is a presupposition based on fraudulent not even evidence, just based on lies. First off, it is not the leading cause of death. The only

reason, the only way that they can make it the leading cause of death is, and this is what the CDC did. They redefined the age of a quote unquote child to go all the way up till 20. So 18 to 20 year olds are now factored into that average. When you remove that age demographic, the 18 to 20 year olds, guess what? That falls down. behind car accidents and drownings. Now, let's go back to that subset. I've written about this. It's in one of my books. There's a lot of evidence on this. So I'm not making anything up that's not publicly

available on the internet according to the CDC and the DOJ and the FBI's own criminal statistics. This subset, this age subset, the 18 to 20 year old, why does it inflate that number so much? Because it's gang and drug violence. And it completely correlates. When you look at the, that at the, at the numbers given by the CDC for 18 and younger, and then you add in the FBI criminal statistics, FBI, the Uniform Crime Reports, when you add in the publicly available crime data it tracks.

The CDC inflates that number by including 18 to 20 year olds and defining them as children. That is why they then can say, oh, well, look, it's the leading cause of death for children, because they redefined it. again when you remove that subset then 18 and under it falls behind the child uh the leading cause of death falls behind automobiles and drownings now suicides are also factored in there that is a mental health issue in fact suicides comprise one third of that statistic for that subset now that's a

whole other conversation but the reason it is inflated is to fearmonger and scare people into thinking that their children could be statistics. When these incidents, although one is too many, are incredibly rare and they're always preventable. But we don't talk about the preventable aspects of it, which is one of the things that Vance did touch on. What I didn't like that Vance did, and I was not a fan of his language on this, is he borrowed the language of the left. He used the language of the left in his response on firearms. He said the phrase, gun violence epidemic. And he and Walsh were very nice to each other on this.

And he also used the phrase illegal guns. Here's why I have a major problem with this. Again, I don't demand that you be as hardcore about 2A as I am for my support, but you do need to believe that my right, my enumerated right, should not be infringed upon. Language like gun violence epidemic, language like illegal guns, those are words of the left. You cannot win a debate on this issue. when you are already validating your opponent's points because you're incorporating their rhetoric into your argument. This is rhetoric 101.

For instance, there's no such thing as quote unquote illegal guns. A gun isn't an inanimate object. There is criminal possession, but there isn't an illegal gun. By saying the phrase, illegal gun instead of criminal possession, you are ascribing a moral aesthetic to an inanimate object, which is exactly what gun controllers want to do, because that continues to validate the anti-gun language, which dictates that inanimate objects somehow possess the ability to influence the carrier of said object towards criminal behavior. A gun itself is not illegal.

it cannot be so. The legality or illegality is determined by the willful way in which a person chooses to use or acquire it per law. And there's no gun violence epidemic. There is, and this is where Vance left a ton of meat on the bone. I don't know how you don't get into Tim Walse's behavior during Minnesota, the riots. Vance left that meat on the bone. there is, and this is where he could have done it, there isn't a gun violence epidemic, there is an epidemic of lawlessness that is brought on by the sort of restorative justice that's supported by Tim Walz and Kamala Harris.

Look at the riots in Minnesota. How many of those people were not even arrested, not even detained? Kamala Harris was promoting their bail fund, the bail fund of people who burned down entire communities, historically black communities, I might add. You know, the communities that Gwen

Wall says she enjoyed smelling burning, and that's why she left her windows open. He left a lot of meat on the bone there, and that was very disappointing. I expect Wals to be anti-gun, but I don't expect my Republican candidate to validate their language by speaking recklessly on it. Because we are in, I mean, it's a match where you cannot give any kind of ground. And words do matter, folks. Because when it comes to this sort of thing, when it comes to gun law, the words you use invoke different aspects of the law, and with it, different penalties and consequences. And with that, different abridgments of your rights. So your damn right language is important. In some instances, it's everything.

Now, with this, we've got, I mean, I've got so much more, and we're, gosh, we're already, we're not even near anywhere where we need to be. Oh, we got so, because, I wanted to touch on this real quick. Play 18 for me. It's real quick. This is 18. I'm going to play two cuts before we go to break. First is 18. This is what I'm talking about ascribing a moral aesthetic to an inanimate object. Listen. And I think what we end up doing is we start looking for a skateboard. Sometimes it just is the guns. It's just the guns. Okay. What does that mean? Sometimes it's just the guns. So you're telling me that when a person is fine and on the track of good behavior until somehow, they acquire a firearm and then they immediately turn bad? Because that's what he's suggesting here, which gets into my whole argument that you do not ascribe human characteristics on inanimate objects. Because you're validating what they're saying there. There was no follow-up to that. I thought Vance could have done that. What do you mean? It's not just, it's not the guns. It's not the guns. Sometimes it's just the guns. Sometimes it's just recidivism. Sometimes it's the

breakdown of law and order. Sometimes it's the breakdown of the American food. family. Sometimes it's the breakdown of good parenting. But that was meat left on the bone. I got a lot more to hit. We got abortion coming up. We got the economy. We got the latest with the strike. Iran versus Israel. All sorts of things to touch on. Education is so unbelievably important to preserving liberty. You cannot preserve liberty if you don't know what you need to know. If you don't understand how your government works. If you don't understand the republic, how we are founded as a republic, that, incorporate some democratic principles.

And I actually think if you're a woman, that might be the worst moment J.D. Vance had, because he was going to mansplain right over. that mute button. He was, and again, I don't pretend to know how everyone will react to this. I think that a lot of women in positions of authority that should command respect just by virtue of that

dynamic will see themselves and some dude that disrespected them and talked over. You know, I mean, there was a moment like that with, with them vice president. There were two dudes on stage. Where was the sexism? Godly, does everything have vagina, vagina, vagina, just shut up already. I'm so tight. If there ain't a woman on stage as a candidate, then they'll try to fabricate. and appropriate it and project it onto the moderators. They're big girls. And if there's a woman who can't stand being talked over on a debate stage,

if that offends her, then get your ass off the stage. You're not grown up enough to be on it. This is a grown folks event, okay? Grown folks event. We don't have time for any of this stuff. Jiminy, Christmas. I mean, no.

I can't, man. I just can't even. Yes? this is so annoying can just people can we just not have that for one time even when you got two dudes up there somebody's got to inject sexism

well I mean Wals did kind of act like a bit of a B at some there was one point where his mask slipped did you see it he got you can tell he's starting to get mad it's like someone nudged him and tell him dude the camera is on your face

it's on your face stop it I saw a little bit ago the Babylon B had put out that DOJ was going after J.D. Vance for beating up three women last night. And I couldn't have laughed out loud. It just hit me. Yeah, that's true. But internally I did.

Golly. Well, we got a lot more on the way. But we're also going to talk about something else, too, that we're going to have to have a conversation about at some point in the next year. And it's how the George W. Bush 2.0, quote unquote, compassionate conservatism, is making a comeback within the GOP. You know, the ideology that spawned the Tea Party movement? I'm going to explain how.

because I've been seeing it and hearing it a lot lately. And it's from people who I guess didn't experience it the first time around, so they think it's new. So we're going to touch about on all of that and a lot more. We got the strike. We got Iran. We've got the debate still. We've got a lot of stuff. Stick with us.

We watched that debate last night. We're also following the latest with the strike, the Longshoreman strike, Iran versus Israel. We've also got the disaster, ongoing recovery from Hurricane Helene. We're going to get into all of that. First up, recapping some of this debate, going over the worst and best moments. And I said before, I think it's easy to go up against somebody like Walls. He played it safe. And the biggest hits that he took last night are when he messed up about China and wouldn't admit that he lied.

And we played that. And then there was this really wild gaff when they were talking about this was mass casualty incidents. And this is Audio Soundbite 17. I actually, when I first heard this, I couldn't believe that I'd heard it. And I sort of asked X about it because I could not believe that I heard this. But it was, that's what he said. Listen. So I've become friends with school shooters.

I've seen it. Look, the NRA, I was, NRA guy for a long time. He's become friends with school shooters. I thought, what? I don't even, and he never actually walked back to clean that up. That's just, just hung out there. That was a very wild gaff. And, of course, it's now making the headlines.

So there were some, I thought just. I thought that Vance, like I said, if I had to pick a victor, I would give it to Vance for having more coherent answers. And he didn't make the big gaffes. He didn't make two major gaffes. The trying to screw up in the Friends of School shooters thing that Walsh did. But I absolutely think that Vance missed some opportunities to verbally beat the snot out of waltz. I absolutely do. I also, and I'm going to say this and this is not going to be popular, but I'm warning you.

Because we did all back this. Why are you doing that? We did all this back in. I actually started before 2009. Do you remember when the Tea Party first kicked off? And I was one of the original people that was on that phone call that Sunday. We were arranging stuff for that very next day. And it actually was in response to, and I hate this phrase, compassionate conservatism. Because that is a phrase that George W. Bush came up with. And I'm not, I mean, he seems like a very nice person. I disagree with some of his policies, clearly, including this whole compassion.

conservative conservatism thing because it's neither compassionate nor conservatism. It's a fun name for big government. That's what it is. It's the compassionate conservatism of making the government pay for family leave and basically glorified corporate welfare. It's welfare, but just you're pushing it through the corporate veins, so it counts less than less as welfare. It's the too big to fail. It's all of that stuff, right? It's the kind of thinking that was dominant. prominent within the Republican Party for a long time that made a lot of us dissatisfied with it. That's the reason the Tea Party started. Democrats tried to co-opt it and say that the Tea Party began because of Barack Obama. The Tea Party began as a rebellion against big government republicanism.

And after Barack Obama was into office, when he continued those policies because big government republicanism, there's another name for it. Do you want to know what's called Democrat? And when he continued some of those policies were like, see, we told you. And we kept protesting them. And then it was like, oh, they're just protesting him because he's a black president. No, we actually started before he was running. Thanks. So I say this now because I feel like a lot of people are some people on the right, not all, but some people who weren't there back then, who think this is, well, who believe this is all new to them. They are unfamiliar with the history of quote unquote compassionate conservatives. being code for big government, which is code for Democrat. They're unfamiliar with us. They are unfamiliar with how back in the day, many Republicans were arguing that, well, sometimes the government has to intervene, or how they were arguing on behalf of government intervention if it was advantageous to a Republican policy without realizing that you're

opening the door for Democrats to exploit it the exact same way, which they did. A lot of these people who are here now weren't in this fight then, and they think this is all brand new. And because they have not seen the logical conclusion of it, they don't find anything wrong with it. Now, the reason I bring this up is because one of the issues that this ideology plagues the most is the idea of family leave, which I don't even know why it's an issue. We don't like government involved in business, correct? Except what, with this? apparently so. There was a question that was asked about paid family leave.

And this is, there are two instances. Now, I've said I don't need to keep, you know, Pat and Vance on the back. I think he took the debate, like I said, coherent answer, needed to make abs. But there were three issues that he wasn't great on. Abortion, the guns issue. He could have been stronger and he could not have used the language of the left. This issue, I was very disappointed on, and it's the family leave one. Here is part of his answer because he was at.

asked about that. Juan's got some of it. Check this out. Do you support a national paid leave program? And if so, for how long should employers be mandated to pay their employees while they are home taking care of their newborn? You have two minutes. Yeah, well, first of all, Margaret, a number of my Republican colleagues and some Democrats, too, have worked on this issue. And I think there is a bipartisan solution here because a lot of us care about this issue. I mean, look, I speak from this very personally because I'm married to a beautiful woman who's an incredible mother to our three beautiful kids, but is also a very, very brilliant corporate litigator. I don't think that I think immediately it was wrong. Bipartisan answer. I know this personally too because I've given

birth twice and I've worked. Now, he also said the quote, and this is one of the things that he said last night, and I have it isolated here. He said the quote, we're going to have to spend more money. We're going to have to induce more people to provide child care services. I don't know what the weir is in this, and I don't know what the how means. That was never clarified. Here's my point on all this. If companies want to offer child care, et cetera, voluntarily to be competitive, great, more power to them. That is well within their right to do so. The government should not mandate that businesses do this. This is nothing more than big government nonsense, and it's defended by some on the right as quote unquote compassionate just like Bush 2.0.

Welfare is welfare. Regardless if it is forced through corporate or offered as an entitlement, it is not a small government position to demand that government mandate businesses to help people and accommodate family planning. It is weird to complain about big government. while begging the government to get bigger by mandating that businesses accommodate family planning. That doesn't make any sense. Now, I know that mine is not a very particularly popular take on this right now, but I would rather be consistent than be liked.

By the way, the only correct and only answer on this is, is this. If businesses want to offer this voluntarily, so be it. But in the meantime, stop taking in so much of our taxes. stop taking our money and tax so families can either afford child care or afford to have a two-parent one-income household, if they so choose, should they want to be able to have a parent at home with their children. And I'm going to tell you what, these businesses, I don't know what some of these people think businesses get started for. The people on the left think that businesses are created and should be created only to be charitable. You don't need to pay for this stuff. Just give everybody a million dollars an hour, whatever. Some on the right think that, well, then if the government doesn't force them to do it, are they still, then how is it going to work?

Look, if a CEO, if I was a CEO and I wanted an employee that had a particular talent, and I knew that in order to get that talent, I would have to offer certain perks. like if that talent wanted to have a family, if that, then I would absolutely do it because my business would benefit. Businesses are going to make decisions that grow businesses because it's fiscally responsible, which is a conservative trade. And if they voluntarily want to offer that, if they want to go after people that have proven skills and that are worth it, businesses are going to do that. They're already doing it now without government having to mandate it.

And a lot of these people don't realize some of these small businesses can, cannot afford to pay long-term leave for people who are not generating income. They don't understand what it's like to make payroll. They don't understand what a small business owner pays to replace that employee. You're paying two salaries for one job. That is not a small government constitutional conservative position. It is a Democrat position that is wrapped up in the veneer of quote unquote compassionate conservatism in order to render it more palatable to Republican voters. But it's a Democrat policy. And so that is why I think, and there were, he had long answers on this. I thought his answer was wrong. He defaulted to government on his answer.

That bothered me, because we went through this once already, and it's why Republicans got beaten and the aughts. There's no point in securing a legacy if you're going back to Bush 2.0 because that was defeated once. We saw how that plays out and that stuff makes me nervous because I don't want to be in a position

with all this stuff where you defeat yourself again because you're promoting policies that failed back in the odds. So like I said, I don't know what, there's only one good answer to that. And there wasn't a lot of daytime

between him and Walsh on that. Now, a couple of other things here. Walls particularly, we know Walls is going to be bad because he's, I mean, he just was horrible with a lot of things. Audio sound like 16 when he was asked about firearms. This made me angry. Listen to this. I got a 17-year-old and he witnessed a shooting at a community center playing volleyball. Those things don't leave you.

As a member of Congress, I sat in my office. surrounded by dozens of the Sandy Hook parents. And they were looking at my seven-year-old picture on the wall. They're seven-year-old of her dad. And they were asking you to do something. I own firearms. And the Second Amendment is there. But our first responsibility is to our kids, is what he had said.

And the way that he positioned it seemed as though he was suggesting that being a parent and owning a firearm are two incompatible things. I don't think you have to beat through a mass casualty incident. to understand the importance of your children or to understand the importance of defense. And I mentioned this online as well. I am very grateful for my Second Amendment right of self-defense as a mother. You know, I've had someone try to break into my home because they wanted to harm me because of my ideas.

And I'm grateful that I had a rifle. Because guess what? That person was there for almost 12 minutes before the cops were. Love my police. A lot can happen in 12 minutes. And I'm glad, what if I had no means of protecting myself? Because I believed as Tim Walst did, that somehow parenthood was incompatible with defense. You know, a lot of reasons why, a lot of reasons why parents, particularly mothers have firearms,

is so they can defend themselves and their children. I thought that that was an ignorant take that he had. I mean, I'm not surprised it's Walsh. He's a fud. but I was just I was just abhorrent take. We have more to come. The latest on the strike, we're going to touch on the strike,

and we got more on the hurricane relief. What is up with the helicopters? Apparently a lot of privately owned choppers are helping out with assistance, but why is there not more happening? We're going to get into all of that and more. As we roll into the people who help bring you free radio, it's our partners over at Caltech, it's the P-15. It's the lightest than is double-stack 9mm on the market.

you've got two versions. You have the polymer version and you have the metal version. The metal version has the wood grip panels on a polymer version. Look, just get the damn gun. You know why? Because it's a nice concealable gun. It's nice. It's lightweight. It sends with two magazines. One's a 15 round magazine. Standard round capacity for the whims out there. Standard capacity. Minimal pinky extension. The other one's the 12 round. That's flush-fit double-stack mag that holds 12 rounds. If you want like the ultra-concealability, tritium fiber optic front site, sweet trigger. I mean, it's a Cracker Fire Pistol from the people who literally invented the micro compact pistol category. For the every man, that's the tiny little teeny, witty-bitty gun. Okay. You don't lose stopping power. It's a great gun. Get it. Because you're probably going to need it if things keep going down this route.

You can find it at Caltech. Innovation Performance Caltech. Great Florida-based company. America needs more companies like them. Find it at KeltecWeapons.com. It's called the P-15. That stands for 15 pews, right? Standard Capacity Pews.

K-E-L-C. Weapons.com. Tell them that Dana sent you for the love of all things holy. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. Someone called Sam Jackson. A passenger thought, it was okay to take a 10-foot Burmese Python in his carry-on luggage. Yeah, it's a guy at Tashkent Airport in Uzbekistan. The guy was instructed to open his carry-on luggage. It was just two days ago. Or sorry, last week, a little bit more than two days ago. He unzipped his bag and revealed a 10-foot-long little blonde python. Curled up his sleep and fight it.

Sleeping is having a little nap. Snake was having a nap. It was a three-meach of snake, and it was uncovered, and he was not allowed to take it as a carry-on. They said it was not declared. It was discovered. It was a tiger albino python. It's native to South and Southeast Asia. Because it was listed in the international red book, they have to import it,

and they can't, you know, you just can't take it in. Is that like, do you think somebody's actually smuggling it? Or were they, like, dumb enough to think, that's a ma pet? Because that's not, like, what I think of when you're trying to smuggle something. It means you're trying to evade security, right? You can't just put it in a duffel bag with a little bed and, like, walked. It just doesn't make sense.

Sounds like it was a pet. A hyper-realistic inflatable alligator was rescued from a creek in Lebanon County. Oh, that's good. They saved that inflatable alligator. This is in Pennsylvania. A resident said that there was a gator in a North Cornwall Creek. And I can't, why are there so many, what, quite a falafalaya creek? Yeah, that's right.

And they immediately had to get law enforcement out there to get this gator out. And what they discovered, they said it was very realistic. I got to be honest with you, it's not. It's not a very, you know those like gator floats that you get for your pool and they have handles on them? It was that. That's not realistic gator. It's not hyper. Yeah, it's not hyper realistic. Good night. So Musk knew that X was overpriced when he got it. Now it's worth 25% less than what he paid for it. And that's because they're trying to kill it.

Dana Lash with you. we're here at the bottom of this second hour. And we're going to get into the latest with Iran and Israel, as well as Hurricane Haleen recovery. And then we're going to touch on the strike real quick. I want to play this isolated audio because I was talking about beware of slipping back to Bush 2.0, quote unquote, compassionate conservatism, which is a code word for big government, which is a code word for Democrat.

Because you can't have the government involved in everything. And we were talking about family leave. and how businesses should not be involved in doing this, unless they voluntarily choose to do so. We can't very well go and complain about government involvement and stuff and then beg the government to get involved in mandating business to provide accommodation for family planning. That's neither a conservative nor a constitutionalist perspective on that.

And the reason I brought it up is because I actually thought, I thought Vance won the debate, but I did not think that this was his brightest moment. And I just wanted to play this really quickly. so you have perspective on what I was talking about fully. Listen. It's the heart of the Donald Trump economic plan. Cut taxes for American workers and American families.

Cut taxes for businesses that are hiring and building companies in the United States of America, but penalize companies and countries that are shipping jobs overseas. That's the heart of the economic proposal. And I think what President Trump is saying is that when we bring in this additional revenue with higher economic growth, we're going to be able to provide paid family leave, child care options that are viable and workable. for a lot of American families. Can you clarify how that will solve the child care shortage? Well, because as Tim said, a lot of the child care shortages, we just don't have enough resources

going into the multiple people who could be providing family care options. And we're going to have to, unfortunately, look, we're going to have to spend more money. We're going to have to induce more people to want to provide child care options for American families because the reason it's so expensive right now is because you've got way too few, people providing this very essential service. Okay, so that's exactly what I was talking about. That is exactly it. What do you mean? Who is the we? And what is the how? You're going to have to spend more money and induce more people. Like I said, real quickly, and then I'm going to move on. Companies that want to offer child care voluntarily to be competitive, that's their right. The government

should not mandate that businesses do this. Again, it's the same big government stuff that was marketed under Bush 2.0 as quote unquote compassionate conservatism. And the only answer to this is, number one, businesses can voluntarily do it if they so choose. Government should mandate this because, look, welfare is welfare, regardless of whether it's forced through corporate or if it's offered by the government as an entitlement. So the only correct answer is only businesses should determine voluntarily if they want to do this. And really, we have to stop taking in so much tax so that families can afford to get child care. or they can afford to have a two-parent one income home should they so choose if they want to be able to have a parent at home with their children. That is the only correct and acceptable answer on that.

So that's what I was talking about. Everything that Wall said, I disagreed with. I just got to put that out there for clarity. All right. So I want to switch gears here and I want to touch on this very interesting thing that I've been seen with regard to the, the helicopters and the way that they have been, like the privately owned choppers and how they've been responding to a lot of this, there was a very interesting piece that I was reading about the U.S. helicopter community. I love that we have a helicopter community. God bless America.

I've never, I've flown in a chopper. I've never flown a chopper per se. Kind of now I'm interested in it. But it talks about, like for example. instance in North Carolina, they have all of these privately owned choppers that are out there doing these rescue efforts. And it's amazing to see some of this stuff. And they've, I mean, the photos and the video air, their airlifting supplies there. It's like the Cajun Navy, but like in the air. Cajun Air, right? Cajun Air. That's an air. Wouldn't you fly that airline? I would totally

fly that airline. Instead of peanuts, they give out gumbo or something? Dude, here's your cup of gumbo. Now, we ain't giving you no peanuts up in here. You get a cup of gumbo. Oh, my gosh. Cajun Navy, come on. You all got to make that happen. Cajun Air.

I would demand to fly Cajun Air everywhere. There's your slogan, Cajun Air Air. There it is, right there. So they have been going in and around trying to help all these people. And I know that there's also this. People were asking about Fort Bragg because there's a lot of helicopters at Fort Bragg. And people were asking, well, why are they not getting, why are they not getting involved? Why are they not getting, you know, power and get out there, get supplies in?

Because a lot of the people have been saying, well, the government aid is nowhere to be found. And they've got video of all of these helicopters that are privately owned, volunteering their time and their fuel. And they're running supplies because the roads are impassable. They're running supplies. They're rescuing people. They're dropping stuff up in the hills. I mean, it's just wild.

And there was one guy who told, who was told by the fire chief that if he went back and he's a guy who owns a chopper, if he went back, they would arrest him. He had to leave this dude on the mountain. Why? Okay, I'm real confused about this. Why are people, why are some of these, it seems like some of these private choppers, why are some of them being deterred from doing this? Is there, I mean, you're in a, it's a natural disaster. It's a, it's a, emergency zone. And people have been, you can see how, people have been following like flight tracker and all this other stuff and they can see how many government assets like helicopters, government helicopters are operating with rescues and they're able to filter out civilian and passenger aircraft. And people are wondering, it seems like there's more privately owned than there is government owned.

Here's an interview with this guy who was saying that he was told he was told, He basically had to stop making these rescue efforts and dropping supplies. Listen to this. This is wild. Why? Started helping with coordination. He gave me radio frequencies to coordinate with them on, set up a landing area for me to come back with the other victim. And in the middle of the whole conversation and then blocking the road off, I was greeted by the, at that time I didn't know.

But Lake Lure, Fire Chief, or Assistant Chief, maybe, and he shut down the whole operation. So at that point there was, I felt like the conversation wasn't going any further. And again, he asked me to leave and I said, hey, I have no problem getting out of your area. If that's what you want us to do, we'll leave no issue. At that point, I asked him, you know, what was the reason I had to leave them there? And he said, again, you're interfering with my operation. I just need you to get out of the area. I said, sir, I don't know where you were trained at, but I know how my training is and I'm not going to leave personnel behind.

I'm going back to get my co-pilot. He said if you turn around and go back up the mountain, you're going to be arrested. So I'll say this. I get it if, you know, you are, you know, the firefighter EMT and you've got a rescue plan and resources in place and you don't want anyone interfering with that. But that's the question, isn't it? Because the assertion is that there wasn't a plan, nor were there resources in place. Right? That's the whole thing, right?

So, and this is just one, a person. one example because emergency responders are are so overstretched in these areas. It's insane. And I think that you would take that into account and would welcome or try to incorporate as a part of your plan, people who are able to help out, who have the ability to get to these areas that are impassable due to landslides and busts that are roads and all this stuff. And I get that, you know, you want to secure an area and you're trying to do everything. But again, a lot of these people are, a lot of these first responders are totally overstretched. I understand you don't want every time Dick and Harry coming up and getting involved and all

that, but you need people with choppers because apparently there are not enough. And I think it's, you know, important, especially if part of your plan is making sure that you're rescuing people off the mountain and you don't have the fully available resources to do so, why would you have people wait up on the mountains being stranded for days when you could have like privately owned choppers, people and assist those people and organize them and use their resources, use them as assets and have them rescue people so that you're not stretched so thin. I feel like there's a better way to do this. And the crazy thing is, is that if we had a better, I think, I think some of these, if we had a better

response in some of these areas. I think that this conversation would be, it would be unnecessary. But that's, I mean, the devastation, I mean, I, oh my gosh, they still don't even really have estimates as to how much and what all is going to be required. I mean, it's just so, they're still just trying to ascertain the level of damage and, and, uh, save people. And I also think that the other issue with this is, there's, There's not, do you feel like there's not enough attention on this from national press? Like they, they talked about it and now I just feel like it's sort of fallen by the wayside. Am I being too sensitive with that?

No, you're not. I believe that this media has been consistently running cover for the left, and I think this is another example. But do you think that they're not reporting on this as much because it's southeastern states that are mostly affected? again, I don't want to sound like I'm trying to cause a problem unnecessarily, but I do have to wonder why the coverage is so completely lopsided. Well, I remember, and I put this story in your prep last night, that back in Hurricane Katrina, they couldn't immediately get to the area, right? And so when there was a lag in FEMA help and all of that, people were going all over the media and saying how George Bush hated black people and all. all of this stuff and made it a race issue in the whole nine. So if those rules applied to what we do today in how we respond in the media on this,

then yes, it would look like based on the lack of FEMA and obviously the lack of interest that both Kamala and Joe Biden had in this whole tragedy, apparently they hate white people and they hate people that vote mostly for Trump. I mean, apparently Helene is already one of the deadliest costly storms to hit the United States. It dumped 40 trillion gallons of rain on the southeastern states. 40 trillions, 40 trillion gallons. That's enough to fill Dallas Cowboys Stadium 51,000 times or Lake Tahoe just once. That's how much.

Now, the reason I bring this up is because, and Steve made a good point, Hurricane Cindy got so much coverage. Not that it didn't, you know, deserve to get a lot of coverage. but you have Katrina Harvey, Ian, Andrew, and Sandy was listed at number four. But Helene is right now in the top 10. It's a bad hurricane. And the devastation seems like it's in multiple states and not just really concentrated on a couple. But there does seem to be like there's lopsided coverage because the media is mostly centralized in the northeast. and anything that happens to the media just takes over, you know, the whole day,

my gosh, you get a snowstorm and it's just, you know, wall-to-wall coverage. And you get major flooding like in Tennessee and there's like barely a blip. And now the recovery efforts for Hurricane Helene are just starting to slip past and they're rolling off what they call above the fold. So when you get your newspaper and it's folded in half, all the most important stuff is above the fold. So that before you even fold it, unfold it to be the full broadsheet, half broadsheet. half broadsheet, then all the most important stuff was there.

So above the fold is what they refer to. That's like the order of importance. It's already fallen below the fold. Now it's going on page 1A2A. So this is, it's, I don't know. I'm not trying to be overly sensitive, but it feels like, you know,

considering some of the devastation, like in North Carolina, they got hit so bad, and the landslides are horrific. I'm, I'm one and they're still trying to find people there's still tons of people unaccounted 159 fatalities so far with ABC had that 20 hours ago it's probably more now Florida peanut farmers say this is worse than Adalia they say that they're dealing with

devastating losses with peanut crop so it's and and they think that the that Helene is going to join the five most damaging it's technically in the top 10 but it's being estimated that's going to join the five most damaging hurricanes of all time.

It's time for Florida man. Yeah, so, um, got a couple things here. This, I, I've, I, I, this is an older story. hold up and do this one so a guy's son was gets caught trespassing right why is it always at a Walmart I'm not kidding you like every time I've got like a trespass story it's always at Walmart so a Florida man gets arrested because his son was trespassing at a Walmart and when the dad showed up Flager County he attacked the deputies who contacted him to get his kid no So, Flaker County Sheriff's Office responded to multiple reports of juveniles causing disturbances in a Walmart.

They were all under 16. They were on bikes at the store, yelling, cursing, setting off car alarms. And deputies found the group, recognized the teens' contact with their parents. And one of the parents, this explains why the kid was doing what he was doing, 34-year-old Jonah Harrington from Palm Coast arrived in immediately confronted law enforcement. He gets out, runs up to the deputy and just shoves, shoves him. It's all on body cam footage. And dude, don't you know that he's, if you,

had to guess, like, was he wearing his hat with a straight bill? And did you have like a goofy shirt on and, you know, look like he got a D-bag starter kit? The answer is yes. Yes, he did. Two other deputies tried to detain him. And Harrington punched one officer, resisted the efforts of another deputy to secure him in handcuffs. So then he tried to flee. He was apprehended after a struggle. And the sheriff said the apple doesn't fall from the tree. You know, we asked these parents to come pick up their kids because they were causing trouble. But this parent shows to attack our deputies instead. So now you see, right? He's right.

It does not fall far from the tree. Can you imagine? God help my child. If the police called me and they were like, ma'am, you have to come get your child. I would turn into granny boots. Granny boots would get real quiet. And she'd point to a willow tree that she had in her front.

You know, we killed this tree. She had 23 grandkids. We killed this damn tree. We had to go cut a branch off it with a pair of utility scissors. She would strip the leaves off with her hand and fold it and whip us with it. I never got a whooping because I was an angel. and I was, yep, and I was Granny Boots' favorite. So, but all my other cousins got beat.

But that's like the scariest thing ever. I would show up with like a whole thatch of them things. Be like, you tell me where my kid is, officer. I will handle this situation. I'm just saying, golly, runs up and he's on, and you know all these places. It's like you can see their body cameras. Why would you do that?

Third hour on the way. Stick with us. Welcome back to the program. Your lovable cremugin here, Dana, We've been going over a number of things following the latest with Hurricane Helene recovery efforts. Also, we've got coming up discussion on Iran and Israel and then the latest with the Longshoreman strike. We've been recapping this debate, gone over some of the best and worst moments. Now, I talked about one of the worst moments I thought for Vance, although I think he won the debate

because he was most coherent and he didn't talk about being friends with school shooters. This is where Walsh, like really, Walsh fell apart here. I don't think Vance's answer on abortion was great either. And I bring that up because that's like a huge issue. for the right. It's like guns, taxes, and babies. Guns, taxes, and babies. Gtb. Not necessarily in that order. For some people, maybe it's BGD, BGT, or TBG, but we're just doing guns, babies and guns, taxes, and babies. So the discussion about abortion, he was asked because, and again, channel 347 direct TV, find us on Rumble where the chat is, also on X.

One of the big things that Democrats have had that they've struggled to get around is they try to paint Republicans as being extremists. When if you look at, I think there have been nine major polls taken in like the span of, what, six years, maybe longer than that, that have dealt with the issue of abortion and how most people, including the majority of Democrats, And really this is what drives it independence and Democrats. They're like, oh, we'll stop it at 15 weeks. Democrats wanted it to be literally on demand up to the moment of birth, and they also wanted the taxpayer to subsidize it. Now, I'm not just making that up. That was literally what the quote-unquote Women's Protection Act,

that they all co-sponsored in the Senate, when Kamala Harris was also the head of the Senate, the president of the Senate, they all sponsor that. That was a big thing back in 2020 and going up into 20, 2022. And so Walsz now has to answer for his party on that. And the big, the reason that this became a big issue is because you had Ralph Bortham, oh, sorry, Northam, who was the former governor at the time over in Virginia. And he was on, he did a radio interview where he said that he actually supported it all the way up till the moment of birth. And then, and he included, he didn't want to

provide care. And that's another thing that Wals flubbed on. So audio sum by 12, Wals was asked, well, what about any limitations on abortion as demand used as birth control? Because every state already protects the life of the mother in cases of rape and incest. And Wals could not give an answer to this. Listen. Where would you like to respond and also answer the question about restrictions? Yeah, well, the question got asked when Donald Trump made the accusation that wasn't true about Minnesota. Well, let me tell you about this idea that there's diverse states.

There's a young woman named Amber Thurman. She happened to be in Georgia, a restrictive state. Because of that, she had to travel a long distance to North Carolina to try and get her care. Amber Thurman died. Okay, can we pause it for real quick? Because that's a lie. I want to point out that this is a, and we'll come back to it, just save that right there because we're going to come back to it. So he's talking about the case of this woman, and Lorraine wrote about this over at Substack, Chapter and Verse.

She's actually, she's got all the cases up there. And she talked about the Amber Thurman, that woman who is from Georgia. Amber Thurman was, she had gone to get the abortion pill. And she went to get the abortion pill. She took two of them. And then she ended up going into sepsis and she started bleeding. and I don't know why she waited for hours to go to the abortion, to go to the hospital to help with this,

because now it was, I mean, she aborted her baby with this pill. I don't know why she waited that long, but she took the abortion bill. She took two of them. And then when she went to the hospital, for whatever reason, they were late in getting her some care. But it was, they blame this, they blame an abortion ban for her death,

but it's an irresponsible lie. Because she legally acquired abortion pills. Amber Thurman legally acquired abortion pills. She discovered she was pregnant with twins. She sought an abortion as a form of birth control. And she was over six weeks pregnant. Georgia has a six week limitation. She was well, she was over six weeks pregnant.

She took one abortion pill in North Carolina, another abortion pill in Georgia. And they literally warn you when you take this pill. And it says it's widely reported that you could want to, wind up in the hospital because they caused serious complications. And guess what? She developed serious complications. She was vomiting blood and she developed sepsis. But she literally waited not just hours. She waited for days before she went to the hospital. And what Democrats were trying to falsely say is that the hospital waited to perform a DNC. That's actually a lie. There when there's no, and this is in Georgia's law that explicitly allows D&Cs as a treatment following a miscarriage.

marriage. It's the 2023 Code of Georgia, Title 16, offenses, subsection 16.11 in 1617.10 gets into chapter 12, Article 5, section 1612, 141, restrictions on the performance of abortions availability, records, civil cause of action, and affirmative defenses. And it literally gets into everything from epitopic, ectopic pregnancies, detectable human heartbeats, all of it, medical emergencies, medically futile, spontaneous. It gets into literally every aspect of it. they absolutely this law does point out yes you do den C's to as a treatment following a miscarriage she was having a miscarriage at that point so they were trying to misconstrue the law and say that she wasn't allowed to get help and that's what killed her that's not what killed her her waiting for days ago the hospital getting substance and vomiting blood i don't know i just think if you're vomiting blood you might want to go to the er instead of waiting days

so it was a lie that was an absolute lie uh he okay go ahead and with the other i'm sorry one i didn't mean to interrupt like the video but i'm like i'm like i had to to stop there immediately. Go ahead. To try and get her care. Amber Thurman died in that journey back and forth. The fact of the matter is, how can we as a nation say that your life

and your rights, as basic as the right to control your own body, is determined on geography. Like, no one's forcing people to have sex to be pregnant. No one's doing that. Some of these other cases, by the way,

I wish that Vance would have been familiar with that case so he could have just nipped it right there. I think he should have been prepared a little bit more with that. And he wasn't. And I, that's where I was a little bit like, oh, come on. They, they could have, I think, really, really verbally beat the snot out of him with that. But he also lied. And this is, I'm going to get into 13. If we can speed 13 up a little bit and just, we can come in, like in the middle of it. Because Wals was, he was being questioned about the bill that he signed that removed a requirement for doctors to preserve the life of an infant. I want to go back to like,

I think it was 2006 or seven. In Illinois, they had what they called the Born Alive Infant Protection Act. That's when Barack Obama was the state senator in Illinois. So this was actually 2006, I think. And he voted against it. He was one of the big votes against that bill. What the Born Alive Infant Protection Act was doing was, it was one of the first, similarly, one of the of its kind in the nation that was that was about codifying health care for an infant that survived an abortion and he and so that they wouldn't be denied care the baby wouldn't be denied care what tim waltz did he did something very very similar he actually removed the requirement that demanded doctors offer treatment after survived abortions and that they don't have to report it because there was a

reporting requirement to the state he fought to remove that he was questioned about that here Listen to this. Yes, Governor, please respond. Look, this is one where there's always something there. This is a very simple proposition. These are women's decisions to make about their health care decisions and the physicians who know best when they need to do this. Trying to distort the way a law is written to try and make a point.

That's not it at all. What was I wrong about, Governor? Please tell me. That is not the way the law is written. Look, I've given this. I've given this advice on a lot of things, getting involved, getting it. That's been misread, and it was fact-checked at the last debate. But the point on this is, is there's a continuation of these guys to try and tell women or to get involved.

I use this line on this. Just mind your own business on this. Things work best when Roe versus Wade was in place. When we do a restoration of Roe, that works best. That doesn't preclude us from increasing bonding for children. Literally, under Walls, babies who were born alive in botched abortions were not, it was all right to deny them any kind of treatment after. and then Walsh not only supported that, Walsh not only pushed for it, but he removed the requirement for doctors to report the babies who survived and then did not make it.

That is a true thing. And the fact that I wish it would have been a little bit more aggressively pursued, there's no way around it. I mean, that's literally what happened. In fact, on his watch, eight infants, as he's governor, eight infants were born alive. they survived botched abortions. None of them received any care. There was no attempt made to preserve their lives.

They didn't even receive basic comfort care. They were just left unattended. And they also, up until 2023 in Minnesota, they did not punish the neglect of infants who were born alive who survived abortions. These babies would have survived with care. and they changed the reporting requirement. So Walsh's issue, he didn't care so much about the dead babies. He didn't want that to be reported to the state so that that was on his watch.

So he had the law changed to eliminate the reporting requirement. That is an absolute fact. It doesn't matter if you're for abortion or against abortion. That's the truth of the matter. bottom line that is the I mean the law is up there they Minnesota was the rare law that stated that born alive abortions had to be publicly reported but it was a very uncomfortable statistic for Democrats so he worked with a Democrat legislature in 23 and they eliminated the born the reporting requirement and they also eliminated the state's legal obligation for doctors

for nurses and for medical professionals to administer life-saving care. It was included in the signed bill. It was SF-295. So that was a lie. It was, he, that's an absolute lie. He also, by the way, another quick thing, I didn't want to go back to the guns thing, but I wanted to point out, he also made the false accusation that the CDC was barred from researching as a health issue, quote-unquote gun violence.

That's a false. That's a lie. And I've written about that extensively. The CDC is barred from using taxpayer dollars for political advocacy for or against the Second Amendment, which I think is incredibly reasonable. They are barred from politicizing using your tax dollars this. But notice that he omitted how in this, there are receipts of this. And I've written about this and so have a number of other outlets. There were emails that were made public. showing the gun control lobby, everyone from every town to Bloomberg to the Brady Group, that were pressuring the CDC via email to remove from the CDC's website the defensive gun usage statistics showing just how many times firearms in the hands of law-abiding people were used in defense of their lives in protection of themselves or loved ones. And the emails in that explicitly verbatim stated from these gun control advocates that they were upset that the use and presentation of defensive gun usage statistics on the CDC website were a complication to their anti-gun narrative. And so the CDC complied most happily and removed it.

So if you want to have a discussion about politicizing things or being barred from doing something, let's look at how defensive gun usage was removed by repeated harassing requests of the gun control lobby. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. time for Dana's Quick Five. A woman was arrested and accused of a 0.34 blood alcohol content while driving on the airport taxiway. No big whip. Inns in Tulsa, Oklahoma. She was accused of driving drunk just the other day. They got a call on my birthday of a lady who was driving a silver Nissan on the taxiway. She's blocking all the outbound planes. Police, though, were unable

to find her when they arrived. And then the next day, they got another call. That that literally two days in a row. First off, how in the world does that happen? First day, they get a call. She blocked and several, they couldn't find her when they arrived. Then they responded to a similar call the next day. After again, air traffic control said there's a drunk driver and a silver Nissan blocking the runway.

Plan's trying to land. Plan's trying to land. Pilot said he was taxing his airplane when he came up on the Nissan. He actually had to get out of the plane and try to get the driver to move out of the way. And they saw the car full of beer cans. They arrested Bonnie Campbell for a second offense felony aggravated DUI. She was taken to the hospital for treatment, 18 empty beer cans inside her SUV, along with a cardboard box of Coors Light, an empty six-pack, and a garage bag full of other beer cans.

She was unstudied in her feet, bloodshot, I slurred. Speech, 0.34 on the blood alcohol breathalizer test, four times the legal limit. Wow. So she told police she was visiting family who have a hangar at the airport. And a jail record show her home address is in Texas. Just wow. Fat bear week. A bear death caught on camera postpones fat bear week plans. That's an actual thing.

Fat bear week. It's fat bear week. Two Alaskan grizzlies got into a fight and one of the animals was killed and it was captured on a live stream run by explore.org. And they were like, oh my gosh, another bear killed a bear killed another one on the river. So now they're fat bear off. There you go. Stick with us. on the go and need a quick news fix with a fun twist follow dana's absurd truth podcast for bite size informative episodes perfect for your busy schedule on apple or wherever you get your podcast

how is the left going to deal with the cognitive dissonance that comes with me too believe all women and then the wait second dude slapping a chick hard enough to spin her around back in 2012 in can film festival that story that's out today and and by the way there are people running down they've got photos of this of our video of him with this chick arriving at the 2012 can film festival which by the way why was he going there i don't know even know what he does he do i don't really i'm too lazy to look it up myself because i don't care but he was accused of forcefully slapping his girlfriend they've been dating for three months for flirting with another man at this gala and uh they were in the valet line at the can film festival and I don't know, man. I just, I don't know how he's redefining masculinity by impregnating the nanny while he was married to his first wife and then slapping a chick in

2012. Wait, didn't he, he didn't even marry Kamala Harrison to like what, 2014, 2016? But she was like, I helped him raise his kids. What? I just Is she a nanny? No. I don't know. I got questions.

I got some questions. That's all. It's all I'm saying. Just, you know, how is the left going to deal with that? I mean, these are the people who are like, Brad Kavanaugh literally raped everybody. It's better to say, who wasn't raped by Brett Kavanaugh? I mean, there was like that, remember how bad it was? It was so bad.

I'm just saying, you know, I don't know. I don't know how the left is going to deal with that. They are just weird. We have the two weirdest candidates on the left, and their spouses are weird. that Gwen lady dude I for real think that she is an actual psychopath

Good Lord Above is like, this one's weird. So we're going to give them the eyes to match. I mean, as though you couldn't tell when she was like, I love the smell of burning tires and all that. And then what was the other thing that she did? Turn the page. She talks to the crowd like most Democrats do, as though they're toddlers. It's, yeah.

She had her whole like, turn the page. Can you say it with me? It reminded me of that episode of, It's SCH Schitts Creek, the television show, where Moira Rose was trying to tell her son David how to fold in the cheese. And she had no idea how to cook. And they were following her grandmother's like enchilada recipe or whatever. She's like, David, now you have to fold on the cheese. And he's like, okay, what does that mean?

What does it mean to fold in the cheese? Well, do you just fold it and fold and the cheese? And he's like, you keep saying that to me. But what does that mean? Fold in the chair. I don't even think you know what that mean. Just fold it in. It's the same thing.

I got the same vibe. turn the page. I just want to throw the book at you. That's all I want to do. Oh my gosh. She just seems to don't. And they seem to. Okay, maybe this is me being weird.

Let me go on a little, let me go on a little off road adventure real quick. Are you weirded out when you meet people who are too joyfully nice? Just think about it. Not like people who are courteous. But people who are like, oh my gosh. Hello. Oh, you are so lovely.

Welcome. It is so good to see you. That creeps me out so bad. Because I'm not maybe, you know, I, I somewhere, sometimes when I have a thought, it's not in the box or anywhere near the box. It's way outside the box out into the woods, down a path near the river. And I'm just like, they're going to eat me. That's like my first thought. Right.

Doesn't she give off that vibe? She does. Yeah. It's like, it's totally weird. I just, I'm so, I get so nervous about that. And people are super nice, right? Just think about it. Like, how many times have you, and those people are usually psycho killers.

Tim Walts is kind of like that too. You know, like all in person, he's all like, well, you know, I'm just that knucklehead. Yuck, yuck. But then, you know, behind the scenes, you know, he's like, The body's in the floor. He's like super nuts. He's super nuts. You know it's true.

Come on. I just, I just, neither of them are, they, I feel like, you know, they just, they're like the type of people that they invite you to a dinner party. You're like, to eat me? Like, why? Because you're crazy. But I'm never wrong. These people are always nuts.

I look at Doug Emhoff and I feel like he's trying too hard to be the second banana. You know what I mean? Well, I'm just a wife guy. Were you a wife guy when you were on top of your nanny? Just a wife guy. Were you a wife guy when you were slapping that chicken line at the Cannes Film Festival Valet? Huh? Did we just cover the, do we go from the talking heads to the drowning pole in one reference?

We did. You're correct. Psycho killer. What's going to say? Fapapapap. Yeah. Yes, we did. We did.

And that's full circle. There you go. Are you impressed yet? Our son. Are you impressed? Steve? Very much so. I bet you know what I mean? Like he is, is he a wife guy? What is that? That's what normal people would call a husband. But the left has to make up cutey little terms for everything, right? Yeah, it sounds so lame. Oh, okay. I'm like, you just sound like a female copulatory organ. Stop it. Just you can't deal with it. All right. Iran and Israel. Just going to switch gears here.

There's no other better way to segue. So we're just going to go through it. So, hmm. I just think, and like I said, we've been following everything and waiting to hear because you have Iran that says that they're just, you know, they're going to strike back. They're going to Israel said that they could actually, they're considering just ending their nuclear program. I do wonder why out of all the times now, you know, Iran has decided we're not going to act through a proxy, Houthis or Hezbollah or Hisbala and Hamas.

We're not going to act through any of these proxies. We're just going to do it ourselves because now they're opening themselves up to full, you know, aggression. The UN, the completely worthless UN, they called for halting the escalation in the Middle East, guys. The United Nations is weighed in. the UN Secretary General Antonio Gutierrez announced the escalation of tensions. He denounced it and he said that we need a cease fire. Who are you telling to cease fire, you toolbag? Well, I condemn it.

We need a cease fire. Who? Tell Iran to cease the fire. This was not an all-out war until they started cease firing. They started firing and not ceasing through levels. on. What are you doing? So he released a stupid statement. And as a result, he is now persona non grata, and he's banned from entering Israel. According to Israeli foreign minister, Israel Katz, he declared that General Antonio Gutierrez is persona non grata, banned him from entering the

country because he did not categorically condemn Iran's missile attack on Israel, which he didn't. He's correct. The cowardly UN Secretary General just said, quote, This must stop. We absolutely need a ceasefire. I condemn the broadening of the Middle East conflict with escalation after escalation. That's what he said. He added, An all-out war must be avoided in Lebanon at all cost.

And sovereignty and territorial integrity of Lebanon must be respected. Direct quote. Whoa, you're missing a country here, dude. They had no beans to pick until they got attacked. Again, what is with these people? Blank the UN. Blank the UN. It is the most worthless, ridiculous organization. Oh, but Dana, we needed at least to keep up the appearance that we're behaving civilly with each other. And wouldn't you want the United States to control it and instead of it being in another nation? Maybe I could be prevailed upon with that sentiment 10 years ago. Okay, maybe 15 years ago, but not anymore because this is worthless. I mean, they're condemning, notice how they won't even, they can't even bring themselves to mention Israel. Well, you know, the territorial integrity of Lebanon must be respected. What about the territorial integrity of Israel?

They won't even mention Iran. They're just like poor Lebanon. What about Iran that's using Lebanon as a launching base for all of this? What about, what is it, the Jews people who have been completely attacked by Hezbollah and all of this, all of these Iranian proxies in Lebanon. What about that? I mean, they can't even bring themselves to condemn Iran. and they they can't bring themselves to defend Israel's territorial integrity. Burn, burn all of it.

I'm done with all of it. This guy, this UN Secretary General ought to be dragged out of his offices in downtown cushy building there in Manhattan. Every time I'm in Manhattan on my way to Liquority, I got to go past, well, depending on what part of Midtown I'm coming from, I've got to go past UN. I hate, you can just feel the evil that it manates from. that building. It's just worthless. So yeah, I would say that he's persona non grata as well. He added, Israel is going to continue to defend its citizens and maintain its status with or without Antonio Gutierrez. Well, he's absolutely correct on that. I mean, I can't even imagine. They said, oh, we need to, the Secretary General demanded that the international

community support the $426 million humanitarian appeal launched today in Beirut. Why don't you pay for that? You know, the only, why don't, why don't you demand that Iran pays for it? Because Iran did this. Iran did all of this. And the Iranian people, by the way, this is the one time I'm at, I differentiate them from Gaza, because Gazans voted for Hamas. They overwhelmingly love Hamas. Poll after poll, they love them some Hamas. Hamas was so damn popular. They were going to win elections in the West Bank, too. But it's not the same in Iran. Those people have tried time and time again to stand up. Most recently, the biggest one was the Green Revolutional to date in modern time. The Green Revolution went under Obama, Biden, and Obama turned a deaf ear to them. People in the streets protesting.

You know why they covered their faces with whatever they could get their hands on? Not because they were trying to be trendy douchebags like Black Block and everything over here in the United States, because the Iranian National, their Iranian Revolutionary Guard was going and killing their family if they found out that they had a member of their family in the street protesting, the regime. they were sniping protesters on rooftops. Do you remember Nita? The beautiful young woman who was shot in the head

by a sniper by a member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. She wasn't even actually part of the protests. Her and her father were in the car driving back home for something. They saw the protest. They parked the car to the side of the road. They got out and they walked forward to get a closer view.

She wasn't even participating. But it appeared to the guard member who shot her that she was and she got sniped through the head. All on video. All on video. She fell to the sidewalk and was dead in minutes and seconds actually. Her blood's streaming out behind her on the sidewalk. Yeah, that's what happens in Iran.

The people, that's the only, this is one of the very rare instances in which I separate the people from the regime. Because they have tried time and time again. But they don't get the support from the United States that United States gives to. Hamas and Hamas's supporters. No, my gosh, the United States put up a damn floating port to give more supplies to Hamas. But they were completely

MIA for Iranians during the Green Revolution. By the way, I saw a picture of Jimmy Carter wheeled out in a wheelchair. What was he seeing? What was like Blue Angels? What was it? Yeah, was that a chair? Was that like a gurney? Or something. Because he celebrated his 100th birthday. How

sad is it that he may not live to see the absolute poo cano that he created in Iran in the Middle East when he opened that Pandora's box with the Ayatollah and the Shah and all that. How sad that he may not live long enough to see that come full circle, huh? Make some common sense of the crazy headlines with the Dana Show podcast.

You got Gwen Wall's eyes. Did I? Your eyes morphed into Gwen Walls, and I was temporarily scared. I was like, well, there it is right there. if that's, uh, he went crazy. Yeah, if that's true, I don't blame me at all then. Yeah, right. I mean,

You know, he was kind of pressed on this last night in the debate. When he lied. He didn't misspeak. He lied. And this is him addressing that as the press just minutes ago. Asked him about. Yeah, look, I have my dates wrong. I was in Hong Kong and China in 1989. That move from Hong Kong into China.

It was profound for me. That was the summer of democracy. I said it's where I understood how sacred democracy was. This is him trying to explain it away as though he misspoke because it was the same year, I guess. But I remember where I was during the Challenger explosion. I remember where I was during 9-11. He doesn't remember where he was during the TNM Square thing. Especially since he got married on the date because it was so important to him.

Remember? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, he picked that date because he got so, it was very important to him. More intentional than stupid. Yeah, I'm telling you what.
