A new congressional report confirms Tim Walls and his administration did very little to stop fraud and even punish those who pointed it out.
Texas U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico now says, of course he's opposed to trans surgeries for kids.
Oh, and the Social Security Trust Fund will run out of money in six years, and neither party has any intention of doing anything about it.
I'm Greg Corumbus, inviting you to join Jim Garrity of National Review and me each weekday for the Three Martini Lunch podcast.
We'll give you the top news, some good laughs, and we'll be done in 30 minutes.
Follow the Three Martini Lunch on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Welcome to the program.
One of my favorite things right now, ladies and gentlemen, a little you too, God's country,
because it's perfect.
All of these Europeans that have come to the United States following around the soccer teams or football teams.
And they're in Alabama.
They're in Louisiana, going through Norlands.
They're in Houston.
And they are discovering America.
And there are a number of these accounts.
Some of them are Germans.
Some are French.
Some are Spanish.
There's some Scottish people that have come cane with their bagpipes.
And they've been moving in the Airbnbs and playing their bagpipes of a morning.
And they love America.
One's preparing some of the video.
These are the Scots.
This is how they started their morning.
Across the street at an Airbnb.
Playing the pipes in a kilt.
Don't call to skirt because they'll kill you.
I mean, it is just great.
But they love it and watching them go to different places that we all go to regularly.
I love seeing familiar things through new eyes.
So they go, there's one couple that they describe, and I have been laughing my head off about this because they had ranch.
They've never had ranch before.
I can't remember if they were like German or French or what they were.
She was blonde, I know.
and they were like, what is this?
And someone said, this is a gravy.
It's a white gravy to go with it.
And like, no, it's one of the Americans at the place was like, no, no, no, no, it's
dressing.
And they're like, wait, what?
And I guess, I mean, surely they, wait, wait, wait, hold, hold, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait a second.
Do your own peans call salad.
Well, they kept saying gravy.
Okay, so they do not actually say the word dressing.
Usually it's called, so in French, especially if there's oil and vinegar in it, it's a vinaigrette.
But then apparently, they just use like olive oil and stuff.
So dressing is not really a thing.
And then apparently in the UK, according to Reddit Ascabrit, it's a salad cream if it's like a creamy, but no one calls it dressing, I guess.
So there was somebody who told this couple that, and it's not a big account, but it just ended up coming up into all of the stuff with World Cup.
But they were like, what is it?
What's the dressing?
What?
This is a gravy.
And they're like, no, no, no.
And the guy was like a sauce.
They said, no, no, this is, it's a dressing.
It's a salad dressing.
They're like, what?
So think about it.
They were trying to compute.
You're putting something a gravy that you say is for salad, but you're using it for chicken.
Now, I get how that would break a European mind.
I get that, right?
I get it.
Just like how you have to pay for water in Europe, usually.
I get that.
It, you know, breaks the mind a little bit.
But I love how they're discovering this, and they love it.
There's a German guy named Freddie who's been going through, and he went to a Buckees.
He's one of several, and all independently, it's not like this is organized.
He went into a Buckees and was like, this is a gas station.
Oh my gosh.
And he could not believe it
going in to the gas station.
So this is their hall. They had dinner
because they're following the teams around.
I love the corn table.
And then they can't get over the prices.
They're like all of this for only,
I can't remember whatever I'm out.
And then we've got, was this guy Scottish
one? The guy went to the barbecue?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Watch this.
This guy had some Texas barbecue,
had some brisket.
And he is just, you can tell.
Telly's in heaven, watch this. This is amazing.
You gave a word, we got...
Scotland.
Yeah.
Oh yeah?
Con of Luke.
Look at that.
Oh wow, that is some meat.
You guys don't mess around.
Holy moly.
Yeah, Texas takes pride in there.
Yeah, good stuff.
It's delicious.
Can't smell it.
You can't smell anymore.
I can't smell it.
Can't wait to try some.
Yeah.
I'm a little pickle.
Right there.
Yeah.
We've got ribs.
Got a big, big-ass pickle there.
Ribs.
Some brisket underneath there.
And we've got a sausage there.
Look at that.
Oh, and then he put, and then he's, he's, yeah, keep it going.
He's got the potato salad.
He's trying the brisket.
I don't want to offend anyone here.
I talked over that part.
That was an important part.
Sorry.
He was like, do I eat it with my hands?
I don't want to offend anyone.
Mmm.
That is delicious.
You're going to try a bit of sauce?
Let's try that sauce on this, this rib.
Mmm, is this good?
Bringing in like a sweet sauce.
I love it.
Not a sauce on my phone.
My phone.
Brisket.
Alright, this is the big stuff, the good stuff, the brisket.
This is what we travelled.
5,000 kilometres or however far we travelled to get to this stuff.
With barbecue sauce on it.
Mmm.
That is a taste detector.
Oh, he's pleased. He's not.
not a very emotional man, but he's very, very pleased, you can tell. I love it. Oh, man, it is. And then
all these people, they're discovering all of this and they love it. They're seeing all of these
old neighborhoods and the big trees and they're all going, I could live here. This is amazing.
Somebody was shocked about the lending libraries. There was a guy who was talking about how certain
towns have like a lending library of books. And you just open the little door and take a book.
and leave a book.
And he was like, I cannot believe that there is this here.
And I can't remember where in Europe he was from.
But his mind was blown.
And he also could not get over places.
And these are in smaller towns that he would visit where you,
like if it was like a roadside fruit stand,
if the person wasn't there manning the stand,
it was the honor system.
And there was a video of them pulling over on the side of the road
and they're getting like peaches and things like that.
And I don't think the guy had ever had a peach.
So they were traveling with an American
and the American was talking to them about their, you know, the fruit.
And I think they were in Georgia.
And it said like, oh, you know, peaches, whatever, you know, I think I can't remember how much they said.
But they had a little basket, like what you would put, you know, your fruit in, a little basket,
and you could just leave the money in that.
And they're like, we cannot believe that that just happens here.
That you can just leave, that this money is here on the side of the road.
And no one's taking it or no one's taking all this fruit.
they could not wrap their minds around it.
And you could just see they turned into the emojis where the little faces have hearts for eyes.
They were like, this is amazing.
We love America.
Now, I want you to contrast that with what you've seen over the past few weeks of podcastistan,
podcasty people, going to Russia and acting like this dictator,
controlled country with a 75% divorce rate run by alcoholics is somehow the gold measure of
traditionalism and compare and contrast. It's amazing. They go over there and they sit here and play
up Moscow and Russia while bad-mouthing the United States from overseas. They go over to Russia
out of all of the opportunity, freedom, and privilege of the United States, and go to Russia and badmouth
the United States and say that the United States needs to be more like this dictatorial,
alcoholic runs, 75% divorce rate, where, by the way, church attendance in Russia is less
than church attendance in France, and act like that's like the gold standard of traditionalism.
And that's something to aspire to.
I remember there was a time here in America where we didn't appreciate people who went overseas
and trash talked the United States of America.
But I guess certain people want you to move the gold posts of your principles and expectations
of how people behave abroad.
I don't.
I'm still in the same spot I've always been in.
But the contrast could not be greater.
You have, you know, these people that they have.
love it. They're falling in love with it. I think I'm trying to pull up this link where they were
talking about the ranch. And then you, I mean, it's just amazing. It's amazing how you have this.
They are falling in love with it. Been in Alabama. They're going to Georgia. They're going everywhere.
And apparently so, you know, the War Eagle, they released the War Eagle in one of the stadiums.
And the Freddie, the guy was like, there's an eagle flying around the stadium. He couldn't
not get over it. He was like, it's an actual eagle flying around the stadium. It was amazing. And
everyone's like, welcome to freedom, Freddie. And all these Europeans are like, this is the most
American thing I've ever seen. I love America. I love it. What are we doing? What are we doing
in Britain? This is amazing. I mean, it is hysterical. I love it. And that's when they were in
Auburn. It's so great. But it's so nice to see people appreciate it. I think.
think that's one of the things that everyone really, really loved when Twitter decided to have
auto-translate of Japanese tweets. And you had all these Japanese people that were so polite. They're so
incredibly polite. And they were going, is it true that you guys barbecue giant quantities of meat?
And the questions were so wholesome and lovable. And I'm like, are we all becoming best friends?
Because that's sort of what it feels like, you know? But then one of my sons was like, no,
X needs to stop that right now.
Protect Japan. They can't get
infested with wokeery. No,
don't let them see the wokeery that the Marxists
have been planted in Western culture.
I'm not kidding. And my kids are, yeah, you can only imagine.
But it was, I love it
so much. I love it. But yeah, the Europeans
could not believe, they're like, war eagle,
what is that?
And they're like, I don't know what they thought.
But I love the reactions were so
genuine and unscripted.
And watching people fall in love with the
Republic is and see what freedom brings to see just sort of the perks I guess of freedom is amazing.
I love it.
There's an eagle flowing around the stadium.
I love it so much.
It's just great.
So I've been really pleased to see all of this stuff.
Now, as long as, you know, it's a republic if we can keep it, you know, the other thing that
it reminded me of is when Boris Yeltsin, when he went to Randals in Clear Lake, Texas.
You guys remember this story?
talked about it before on the show because it was one of the things that really kind of ended
the Soviet Union really Boris Yeltsin it was in 1989 I was in elementary school and I remember
hearing about him coming over it was in September of 89 and he was just elected to Soviet parliament
and they went to the Johnson Space Center and it was sort of it wasn't a planned trip
Yeltsin, they decided that they were going to stop by Randals. And Boris Yelton went into Randals and he could not believe all of everything that he saw. Even Yeltsin. You know, he's there and he's like, this is not what we were told about by the United States. No one told us this. Like he could not believe all of the different brands, all of the plenty. There are photos of him walking through the store where he just is like gesturing. I put one of them in Slack. He's like gesturing to the, um,
You know the middle, if you're in the frozen food section, do you remember the middle?
What do you call that?
It's frozen, but it's open, and you can just reach in and grab stuff.
He was standing and just looking at it, like, I cannot believe that.
And he had said that he told his entourage, his Russian entourage, that in Moscow, in Russia, if people saw the conditions of U.S. supermarkets, that there would be riots.
and watching these people from Europe go through America is a lot like this.
This is Boris Yeltsin at Randalls in September of 1989, right after leaving the Johnson Space Center.
And he could not believe what he saw.
And it stayed with him for the rest of his life.
He even said, he goes, even the Gorbachev, he goes, talking about the politicians in Russia.
They don't even have this choice.
Not even Mr. Gorbachev, he said.
And then his interpreter told him.
that there were thousands of items in the store.
And they, yeah, these don't even exist in Moscow.
There's like one store that they make up to bring all of the people to.
And that's where they take the podcast to stand people.
And the podcast to stand people are too stupid.
They're not serious.
These people are not out in search of truth.
They want to make a buck.
It's all about clicks because they would have asked to see more than just the one in Moscow
that everybody is taken to.
And so they, he could not believe it.
And he actually, they gave him a little bag of, like, snacks and stuff to take for his trip.
But he had asked his interpreter, are, is this the only store like this?
And his interpreter had said, no, these stores are all over the nation.
And there's thousands of stuff and thousands of items in every store.
And that stuck with him.
He actually wrote about this in his own autobiography.
And Yeltsin said that it was this moment that really, that really basically shattered.
his whole view of communism.
It ended it.
Yeltsin left communism
in the aisle at Randalls.
And so you have all these Europeans
coming over here and seeing all of this amazing
stuff in the United States, and they're taking
those seeds back with them.

it's our friends over at Noble Gold.

You can't wait on stuff like Iran.
You can't wait on stuff like all the stuff in the news, economy, anything.
Gold doesn't wait.
It moves on fear.
It moves on instability.
It moves on the unknown.
Monsters are afraid of gold.
I'm kidding.

There's a couple of things that we're following.
That's why I'm a little, blah, because, so the Pentagon thing that we started the first
hour with, so right when we were getting ready to go on air, we had this, you know,
Pentagon's on lockdown, and I was hearing from a couple of friends of mine who work in the
press, and they're like, something's going on over there.
But it looks like, because now multiple media entities are saying, yes, this is a, it's a false
alarm, no reason.
And we didn't, I mean, we weren't saying that it was anything regardless.
We're just like, this is what's happening.
But they were saying it's a false alarm, no big deal.
And if you missed what happened, they locked down the Pentagon earlier because part of their security system includes, how would you describe it, Kane?
Like, like it can detect biohazards in the air?
Yeah.
Is that, I don't know what you would call that.
I don't know either.
Sent detector?
I have no idea.
But, okay.
I have just an observation, kind of a question observation.
So if it's a false alarm, what would trigger that?
You know, I gave the example earlier in the first hour.
Like, what if, you know, I was on a international flight
and I had to coexist in the business cabin
with a woman who thought it acceptable to spray herself with ud.
Isn't it how you say it, OUD?
And it set it on the bottle.
I can't remember what brand it was.
but it was, it reached down under my throat and strangled me from the inside.
And I'm like, would that, like, what would set something like that off?
Could it be somebody crop dusting when they were walking down the hall?
Kane asked that.
I mean, legitimate question.
That is a biohazard.
Legit question.
I'm just curious because, you know, and I wanted it also to be a false alarm,
because the idea that somebody could get that far into the interior of the Pentagon
and this area that they call the apex because that's like the center and it connects,
apparently it's like a spot where a lot of things converge.
They have 17 miles of hallways there.
I don't want to think that anybody can go to places insensitive in the government where I don't even have the clearance to go, right?
So I was like, please let this be a false alarm.
But then if it's a false alarm, who did it?
Somebody wearing stanky perfume or stanky cologne or somebody could.
crap dust, or maybe somebody vomited.
I don't know. Maybe somebody had a bender last night.
They went out and, I don't know.
Made a question right now. Fair to ask, right?
It's fair to ask, I think, Kane.
When I was a kid, there was those little glass vials you could buy that had, like, the fart
juice in there, and you would stomp on it, and it would, you know, stink up the area that
you were at.
I wonder, you know, I don't know if they still even make those things, but I wonder if that
could be at.
I mean, you know, you can also have, I mean,
like, what is it, deer scent?
I don't know how else that.
My, all the dudes in my family when they go hunt, that's what they do.
They have, like, different, there's things you can get different scent.
Some of them are nasty.
Works, though.
I mean, I'm not complaining.
It works.
So, I don't know, I just got, like, I'm just wondering what set off the false alarm.
That's all.
I'm not wrapping my head and tin foil.
I'm not turning into cane, right?
not turning into him.
We're just curious.
That seemed unnecessarily hurtful.
Well, no, normally, you're the one in this situation like, what is it?
It's a false alarm.
What do you mean it's a false alarm?
How do you trigger something that sophisticated and sensitive?
How does that get triggered?
That's usually Kane.
And that's me right now.
I still had that speculation, yeah.
Well, you're being very, like, chill about it, which I don't appreciate because it makes me look crazy.
Sorry. I think, I mean, it could have been...
Go back to talking about chem trails in your bacteria tea.
It could have been something from the chem trails that fell right into the Pentagon.
It's got an open... Thank you.
It's open top there.
Yeah, the courtyard in the middle. Yeah, you're right, you're right.
Okay, there you go. So that looks like it's a false alarm.
In the meantime, we're talking about taking control of Karg Island.
And how would that happen? And we were playing some of the audio of that because
POTUS is right when he says, I don't know if the American, I don't know if the American people
are going to go for it.
I think they, like I said, I think they would have a couple of months ago, but as to this point now, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know if it, if they would. But if it, I mean, we're striking percent com. We're striking assets, IRGC assets. So I don't know. But I like, I think people don't want to wait and see. If Trump says, look, you can't go from, I could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and they would, and people would love me too. Well, I don't know if I can do this because the American people want. You. You.
can't do it. You can't do it. If they think that he is decisive and he's confident in his
decision, the people are going to support him. I don't know any other politician that has
engendered that sort of goodwill from voters, right? I don't know any, I don't know any
politician that has. I'm just saying. So I think if he is just decisive, and I think he needs to
stop listening to the feet-draggers, I'm not going to, look, I clearly, I don't think that, well, I know
the VP isn't on board with him. But I will say, I give the VP credit for at least not making a big
deal of it publicly, although there's a lot of question about OD and I and Joe Kent and some of the
stuff happening in those intel agencies about power jockeying and whose camp that was. So there's
some stuff there. But at least publicly, he's been on, he's been supportive of POTUS, but he's, I mean,
it's clear that, you know, Vance isn't on the same page. He's apparently going on the view for
some reason. Why is J.D. Vance going on the view? Why is the vice president going on the view?
Now, I have a theory. I think that he needs to compete with Rubio's name in the headlines.
Don't say, Dana, this isn't the time for that, because he's been going on a meeting with
multimillion and billion dollar fundraisers, or donors. He's been at fundraisers with billionaire donors.
And he has been, I know he can say that he's not going to run in 28. He's absolutely.
running in 28. You don't have a very carefully manufactured ascension like he did and then not run after.
But it's tricky for him because VPs off a two-term president never win. The statistics are against them.
Secondly, I think the court of public opinion is very divided on him. Remember, he wasn't winning Ohio.
He was losing Ohio until Mitch McConnell, of all people, spent millions.
of dollars and bailed out his race, bought all of his ads, did all of it, funded the outreach,
did all of it, bailed him out, and he barely won. So I think that he's trying to,
because Rubio, by way of being Secretary of State, is all over. And Rubio, I think, has now
come into his own. And I think Vance, I think he feels the need to compete with Rubio.
in the press, at least in the headline.
Now, they can be friends and all of that, but don't act like people are not, the machinations
aren't underway for 08.
They are 28.
They absolutely are.
So this is just, I think, but he's, I think that's what this is.
He doesn't need to go and defend any, if you're going to sit here and go and make the case
for POTUS, for the administration's agenda, you're not going on the view.
You know what I mean?
You're going on the view to stunt.
You're going on the view.
And I don't want to say it.
You know the word phrases?
You know what the phrases came?
Yeah.
You're going on the view to.
That's what you're doing.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's all right.
Wine, you agree, don't you?
Steve agrees.
You all agree.
That's what this is.
Because if you're making the case,
if you're trying to have a serious conversation
and trying to win people over about the administration,
you're not going on the view.
So I think he's trying to do the most bang for the buck
and have that,
make it look like he's kind of competing,
or at least his name,
he's doing what he can to keep his name up there
as much as Rubio's name is up there.
Now, Rubio's name is up there just because the nature of his job
requires, I mean, he's everywhere right now
because that's, I mean, we're in a really weird time internationally,
and that's just what he's being called to do.
So, I don't know.
I just don't know why.
Why?
I don't even think he needs to do this.
They had a thing out where they added a chicken coop.
Yeah, that's a great headline.
But you got Rubio out there with the president,
and they're in the situation room,
and they're monitoring stuff.
And then Rubio's out there like, yeah, you know,
you got to people need to be able to defend themselves.
Entities need to be able to defend themselves.
He's out there giving quotes to the press.
And it complicates a little bit.
Vance is in a weird spot.
He's in a weird spot because he can't really
make the case for running unless he actually tears down Trump. And he can't be the one to tear
down Trump because then that's going to look like he's betraying the base. So that's part of what
the woke Reich is doing. And I'm not saying that they're doing it in collusion or anything,
but I'm just saying that, you know, the guy whose favorite podcast is notorious woke riker, Theo Vaughn,
that I'm just saying it's just convenient. Sort of, you know, symbiotic, you could say.
A little convenient relationship or convenient moves there.
So it's something to watch.
I don't know why he's going to go on the view.
I don't think that they're going to get the best of him.
Because look, I mean, it's not exactly a brain trust.
Right.
You're going to get some clips.
You're going to get some sound bites out of it.
And it's going to make him look like he is doing something.
It's giving the illusion of doing something without doing something.
So that's the only thing where I don't.
I don't understand these little hits like this.
You know, if you're going to go make the case for something, hold a town hall.
Make the case.
Hold a town hall.
But going on the view?
Who the hell even watches a view?
Who do you think would watch more?
A town hall in prime time?
Which you know networks would air or the view.
A one hour town hall or the view.
What do you think, Kane?
What would get more views?
I would say the town hall because nobody,
I mean, these harpies do the same thing every day.
Once you get a dose of it, you're like, oh, yeah, I don't need any more of that.
And it's midday where people who aren't progressive welfare queens
are at their jobs working to pay for all the illegal immigrants that Biden and Harris led in.
So that's just weird to me. It's weird. And our partners for the program, they help make it possible.
It's the folks over at Relief Factor. Relief Factor, this is such a great product. My husband takes it because he has old hockey and football injuries.
But it doesn't matter where you are in life. Anybody can take it. They sent me this thing from this guy named Anthony. Anthony writes,
Before Relief Factor, I was dealing with debilitating pain and fatigue, but after about two months,
I'm back to running my business, fishing, gardening, and getting back to the things that matter to me, end quote.
So, you know, everyday aches and inflammation.
They chip away your freedom.
They affect how you move, how you work, how you live your life.
This is a 100% drug-free research-based formula.
And it's designed specifically to fight inflammation.
That's root cause of most pain.
Not a temporary fix.
It works from the inside out to support your body's natural,
response to pain. Now, to commemorate the country's birthday, Relief Actors offering a special
patriotic price of 1776 for their three-week quick start to get started. You can join millions of
customers and celebrate freedom from pain. Visit Relieffactor.com or call 800 number four relief for the
special three-week quick start price of 1776. Let's talk about CARG. Can I just make a note on that?
That's a word that you don't say, like, with a smile. It sounds like you guys.
a chicken wing stuck in your throat.
Carg Island. It sounds fake.
So why are we talking about Carg Island? Well, because the president's talking about
Carg Island. First off, let me tell you about Carg Island.
It is sometimes, so it's like right in there in the Persian Gulf, but it's more
to, it's closer to where IRGC can actually provide its support, which is why it's
been a little, it's been a little bit of trick. It's been a little tricky.
There. And so the idea, this is, let's see, let's pull up, you could forgive me. I know I have a
four and a half foot widescreen, but, you know, it's not enough. More is more, right? So he was,
this is cut three. This is what the president mentioned in terms of Carg Island. He's been talking
about this legitimately for what? My whole life. Yeah, since the 80s. My whole entire life. He's
always hated Iran. If you go back real quick and you look on YouTube, and you
you just Google, like Trump talking about Iran through the years?
I have to question if people actually knew him if they didn't know where he stood on this.
He, of all the things he's never been inconsistent on, it's actually this.
But let's play cut three.
This is what he said today.
Look, my preference has always been take Carg Island.
That's been Brian knows that.
I spoke to him a long time ago.
Lawrence knows it.
I spoke to him a long time ago.
I said my preference would be that.
I don't know that America has the stomach for it, to be honest with you.
You know, make a fortune.
But I don't know that America has the stomach.
I think they'd like to see us come home.
Yeah.
And that's the key.
Whether or not America has the stomach for it.
And this is what I'm talking about when I say that Iran is playing this game
where they want to drag everything out and they're trying to,
it's like a war of attrition, but with information as part of,
that's the OPSEC, right?
So that's the, it's all about information and the, how do I put it?
The custody of public favor for the lack of a better way to put it.
They want to prosecute this in the court of public opinion and by dragging it out,
wear everyone down and make them think that the length of time is somehow reflective
upon Iran's victim nature.
that they're bigger victims because it's being dragged out.
But it's Iran that's been dragging it out.
And Trump started getting criticism from home.
You can't have a sits creak, you know.
That's not possible.
And you can't have a proportional response.
These people only know brutality.
And when you're dealing with thugs that only know brutality,
you have to speak their language for them to get the point.
Because everything else they view is weakness.
They view diplomacy as weakness.
I know that's crazy for our developed Western minds,
but these Bronze Age bastards,
bronze age bastards,
that's how they view things.
And so now we got round three.
And this, we have the, he tweeted out,
let me pull this up,
because he puts some of this stuff on,
on X where he was talking about Carg Island.
And it was a threat.
He didn't say we were doing it,
but it was a threat.
So now we have,
In Huggseth's book about this yesterday, he arrived at Sentcom to oversee the new strikes,
and Trump threatened to seize Karg Island.
He said the United States will be hitting Iran, whose Navy Air Force radar anti-aircraft
and all other forms of defense, together with its most offensive capability, are gone.
Very hard tonight, he said.
And at some point in the not too distant future, he added, we will be taking Karg Island
and the other oil infrastructure points, assume total close.
control of their oil and gas markets, much like we have with Venezuela, which is working out
brilliantly for both Venezuela and the United States of America. Thank you for your attention
to this matter. Now, like I said, he's, I mean, he's been in the 80s. There was an interview that
he did with Barbara Walters, where he went in debt. It was like 30 minutes of him talking about Iran.
That may have been, at least 20 minutes of him talking about Iran. And he's talked before about how
really, you know, one of the quickest ways to end all of this is Carg Island, right? Because that is the,
it's like the linchpin for their oil, their exports. It's for their oil exports for Iran. That's a
lynchpin. And it is, I mean, when you consider, that's a hell of a lot easier than trying to do
something going into Iran other than airspace, right? And so I know that there's other islands that
in the Gulf, but Karg is the big one, and really would be the only one that you would need.
But this is an argument that the administration is going to have for the American people.
Now, he's correct in assuming we Americans don't know if they have the appetite for it.
Maybe they did. Maybe Americans did, you know, a couple of months ago.
But it's been dragging out. And this is part of the problem when you're dragging things out.
And I'm not saying Trump is doing that, but I think they allowed to an extent for Iran to do that.
Now, Karg is a little bit more complicated than some of the other islands out there.
Some of the islands, the Emirates claim, so that's a little bit tricky.
There are a couple of the islands, the little island clusters that are there in the Gulf that actually are the Emirates, the United Arab Emirates, and not really Iran.
But Karg Island, it's more, I guess you could say more northern into the Persian Gulf.
And so by that, it's a lot closer than all of the other islands to IRGC support.
so that makes it, I mean, not tricky for us, but there is that layer. It's not a complication,
but there's an additional layer to consider that's involved in it. So to go into CARG,
you got to have boots on the ground. Now, this is the rub. Trump had said he doesn't want
boots on the ground. I mean, technically, give or take, you're training people here and there.
I get it. That counts as having boots on the ground. But this would be a little bit different.
And would it be us or would it be just us? Would it be a joint operation? I think that if that, if it comes to
that, I think you have to press upon the Saudis to send. And that's going to be tough for the Saudis,
because Saudis and Iran, you know, you're playing a very delicate power balance over there where you
don't want to alienate Shia because you, you're trying to have influence in that whole area.
So you're trying to triangulate and play all sides. So that's kind of a different. I mean, I think
the Emirates or Bahrain would probably be more, more conducive perhaps.
but it would require boots on the ground.
Now, Trump said there's not going to be boots on the ground.
And there's not going to be any courtesy of nuance afforded him.
I'm not saying that. I'm just calling it out.
That's, that's, and you know that.
There are going to be people, and there are people that are waiting and salivating over this,
and they are waiting for him to do it so they can say, look, Trump betrayed you.
So this is the gamble.
he absolutely has an option to go in and bust balls. He absolutely does. And I think the United States, because, I mean, it's our military for crying out loud, this would be an exercise for them. Let's be honest about it. It would be an exercise. But it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if they skipped with lollipops into Carg Island and everyone just dropped dead up on the side of our armed forces on the ground there. It doesn't matter. What people would say is that Trump lied and betrayed
Americans and put boots on the ground, committed boots on the ground. Tucker Carlson's already
structuring that argument with his drunk red-faced brother, right? Other people, other clickhors
in podcastistan, they're already setting this up. They're trying to eliminate all options on the
table. This is where I think the one mistake that Trump made was taking any option off the table.
I didn't like it when Barack Obama did it either. I was incredibly critical. Whenever any leader gets
up there and they say, okay, well, we'll do this, but this is where we draw the line. You never tell
your enemy what you're willing to do or not do. You want your enemy to think that they're willing
to, you're willing to burn down the world just to melt their face off. You want the enemy absolutely
scared out of their mind as to what you would do. That's why I like crazy Trump. I like it when
Trump, you know, when people are worried about him spouting off on social media and you think he may
press the button because he damn well may. He could get mad enough and do it. I like that. I like that
uncertainty. I like the lack of predictability. And when you take something off the
table, you're taking an advantage away from yourself. So I never like that, even though nobody
wants boots on the ground, but at the same time, and I'm not arguing for this, I'm just telling you
how it is, at the same time, if you want a mission over, there are a lot of variables that can change
the ground and a lot of variables that can change the trajectory of the mission, and you have to be
able to move nimbly and adapt. And when you are boxing yourself in, that can actually make it
trickier for you in the court of public opinion than not. So I think he made it a little harder for
himself with this situation by saying he doesn't want to have, he doesn't want troops on the ground.
Now, this is what he said during, he has said this before in interviews, although he also has said,
you know, that, who knows, you know how he talks, who knows, it could happen. I think people
need to give him some grace because here's the issue. How he can't.
and talking about conflict, Trump has been very consistent on this. And there is a pattern.
When he wants to prosecute something, he goes in, knocks him on their backside and gets out.
We're not staying over their nation building. We're not doing any of that dumb nonsense. We're not
committing our time and treasure and resources and treasure meaning our people to, you know,
foreign wars and distant lands. I think the people who disregard the threat that Iran has posed to
the United States throughout the decades have their head up their backsides. I mean, it's true.
You either believe it's a terrorist state that has killed hundreds of Americans or you don't.
But all of the instability in this region has been from that entity. Our whole lives. I don't even
know how to live in a world where Iran's not the jack wagon trying to destabilize the Middle East.
What does it even look like, Kane? No, nobody knows. But my point in bringing this up is that
if it got to that point in order to just take them off the table and be done with it,
how is, I think that they need to bet on a successful op as a way to make good for no boots on the ground.
Would you agree with that came?
I think if it's a, I think if it comes to that and we have boots on the ground in Karg Island,
I'm not talking about going in Iran, I'm talking about Karg Island.
going into Carg Island, boots on the ground, then if it's quick, successful, you're in and out,
and you achieve your objective, then that is going to go a long way in making up with anyone
who would have been critical over Trump saying no boots on the ground, and then there's boots
committed to the ground. Although he's modified it. He said, you know, and Lorraine shares a piece
from a news, what news channel is this, W-A-N-E, it's in D.C.
Where it says, yeah, he won't rule it out.
He said, no, he doesn't want, he doesn't want them there, but he's not going to rule it out.
So there's a bit of a modification, which I think that's normal.
I mean, you've got to look at it.
We don't live in a static world with static threats.
Things change.
But what, instead of being super highly critical of a leader, I think, that's really trying to
solve the problem with minimal loss of life and resource,
I think people need to start being a little bit more critical of the entities that are trying to box in the leader of the free world and Americans on what we can and can't do while the Iranians get to, you know, the Iranian regime gets to do whatever the hell they want to.
They get to fire rockets at allies and try to act like their victims when those allies strike back.
Don't get played.
And as it relates to Trump and Netanyahu, that op, remember, I told you this yesterday, they're trying to put daylight in between them.
They want to, but I think they have a good cop, bad cop.
I think it's any discord is all performative.
But it's very interesting right now.
And we'll see what happens.
But Iran, they have no interest in making a deal.
They never have.
No one believes this.
Iran has no interest in making a deal.
They're never going to make a deal, ever.
As we move, folks, our partners that bring you the program,
it's the folks over at Superbeats that make cholesterol health daily.
And this is incredibly important cholesterol is because you don't want to take it for granted, right?
And it's not the enemy.
Cholesterol plays a super important role in cellular health, hormone production, even vitamin D creation.
And the goal is about supporting the right balance, especially the healthy HDL cholesterol levels.
Now, cholesterol health daily uses plant-based ingredients backed by clinical studies.
so you get a smarter, more targeted way to support your cholesterol.
And these ingredients work.
You're talking about age black garlic extract that's shown to help improve HDL,
the good cholesterol, by up to 11.5% without any garlic taste.
Patented Italian citrus bergamot extract that helps maintain healthy triglycerides
and overall lipid metabolism.
It's simple, effective, daily routine two capsules a day for multi-action cholesterol support.
And it's at Seams Club.
So like right now you can go and say $5.
on cholesterol health daily
from the makers of Superbeats at Sam's Club.
Head to your local Sam's Club.
Do more to support your cholesterol health,
the science first brain you can trust.
Oh, I just saw the thing of the reflecting pool, by the way.
It's repainted.
Holy, wow, the difference.
It's a new aerial photo.
I saw it while it was refilling,
but I haven't seen like one where it's been.
Wow, Kane, how is this not night and day difference?
Well, it is.
Oh my gosh.
It doesn't matter what old footage you go with or how far back you go.
It's looked, I mean, it looks currently right now better than it's ever looked.
I'm even thinking that the day it was put in is about as close as you're going to get to where it looks today.
It's, I mean, it looks so pretty.
It looks really, really, really nice.
And so, just saying, looks like he was right on this, doesn't it?
Looks like POTUS was right on this.
maybe they should not have been given him such a hard time.
And how much, who was it that I was talking to?
I think I actually told my mom this because she was asking about the reflecting pool in that.
And it was something like, how many thousands of gallons a day was it leaking?
I can't even remember.
Juan is showing you right now.
That's the old photo if you're watching the simulcast and that's the current.
Oh my gosh.
It's so much better looking.
It's not even, I mean, it's so much nicer.
Oh, yeah.
I bet it smells better too.
And by the way, it was hundreds of thousands of gallons a week.
So we were at, I think it was 16 million gallons a month, I think they estimated that we were leaking out of that thing before.
Wow. Wow. That's crazy. That is absolutely crazy.
So good. That's, I mean, it looks so nice. Oh, except for that tent there. All right. So welcome.
Welcome back to the program. So we were talking about the Carmelo Anthony's story. So here's where it gets really bad.
So I was showcasing for you how the parents refuse accountability.
They think their son was done wrong.
They apparently think that in the United States, if you want to walk up into a tent,
if you want to take a knife to a school and you want to cause problems and purposefully seek out
and try to provoke because you know that you have a blade on you, so you're going to come out
and top and be the antagonist, then they think that that should be protected depending upon your skin color.
So what they want, they're racists, Carmelo Anthony's parents that are trying to, they want
racial inequality to be codified, apparently.
And this is where it gets even crazier.
Did I make a joke about it?
I don't think I made a joke about it.
I said, well, I hope that they don't do something like this.
So apparently the jurors are not afraid for their lives.
Remember Carmelo Anthony's mom when she got in her new car after she gave her impact statement?
She didn't stay for sentencing.
She didn't say, she loves her baby so much.
Not enough, apparently, to use some of the money that they were raised to hire a lawyer instead of using the public defender.
She loves her baby so much, but apparently not enough to use the money that she used to buy a new car and a new house on a better lawyer.
She loves her baby so much, but apparently not enough to even stay there in the courtroom for sentencing.
She loves her baby so much.
She apparently not enough, though, to tell him goodbye as he's led away by the bailiff to go behind bars.
So spare me.
And then she goes outside and says, it's racism.
that's what it all is.
And the dad says, oh, no, it's self-defense.
I mean, how dare you?
So now, because of their behavior, the ungodly behavior of his parents, now it looks like the jury members are worried for their lives.
There's a couple of different headlines on this.
There's a, listen to this, somehow a trend for retaliation as it relates.
relates to the verdict.
And none of them want to speak publicly.
They're gagged from speaking publicly anyway, but it's also for their safety.
So now, according to a couple of sources, there are fears for the Anthony jurors because
a disturbing viral trend of agitators that have been attacking people around the country
claiming that they were part of the jury that convicted him.
And so Anthony supporters, they've had, they said he was discriminated against.
And the judge has a gag order for the jurors, so for their safety, because they'll be found out.
They will absolutely find who they are.
There was, for instance, in Jacksonville, Florida, a guy on a bike confronting another person who looked like he was homeless sitting on the sidewalk.
And the cyclist goes, wasn't he on jury selection, and then hit him?
And they've been attacking people.
there's a I mean
I just awful awful awful
stuff
and this was something that was confirmed by the Jacksonville
Sheriff's office there was a woman who was a witness
and she intervened and said he was not
he is a veteran and leave him alone
and she went in there to defend him
and now I mean you've had the jurors
I mean this is
wild. Now they want to target the jurors. I'm surprised they're not targeting the family.
Well, in fact, some of them were. When the family was leaving the courthouse, Carmelo-Anthony
supporters were screaming threats at the family. It's all on video. I don't want to, I don't know,
I really don't want to give air to any of it because it's awful, but they were, and they were
screaming at his twin brother, you're next. One of them was caught on camera saying that.
We're not dealing with humans. These are demons. I don't know what good.
heavens. And the family acts like, well, Austin Metcalf, he impaled himself on the knife.
That's what they brought up in the trial. You know that, right? Did you hear that came?
No. Yeah, they were arguing that Austin Metcalfe. They were implying that Mattcalf impaled himself
on the knife. Why was the knife out? There is no way you can argue this that makes Carmelo
Anthony not guilty. No way. But hey, I'm going to tell you something. If you're telling me,
that we have a protected right to go around getting people that we don't like,
dear God, you better pray.
Because there's a lot of us out there that choose peace every day.
We choose it.
It doesn't come naturally to us.
It's something we work hard to choose.
And those are the people you do not want to give a get out of hall,
get out of school, get out of jail free pass too.
So that, I can't imagine being the family.
the Metcalf family and sitting in there and listening to that.
That nonsense.
That's just awful.
Awful.
There was at one point during the trial where they were showing photos of Austin Metcalf's injuries
and the jurors audibly gasped in horror.
He apparently, what was it, a Swiss Army knife?
he
he got through bone
into the chest cavity
into the heart with that knife
he brought a backpack
to attract me
that's always weird
and would not
leave the tent
all the witnesses says
he was the aggressor
so Lorraine has a good piece
written up about a substack
about the trial
and the verdict
and now it's
they've appealed it
but now it's the
Now it's the family that is making all these problems.
It's the family.
And the mother, they're going on doing the television runs.
What do you, if you're, you bring, if you go and carry a knife to a sports event
and you walk into another school's tent, and it's not really a tent, it's like the covering
that was on the side of the track, and you walk in there and they tell you, they're like,
what are you doing here?
You need to leave.
You need to leave.
and you're there being an aggressor,
trying to get into people's faces,
like looking to start a fight,
that's not normal.
That's not behavior of a good person.
That isn't behavior of someone
who didn't intend to hurt anybody.
People who don't intend to hurt anyone,
like the mom said,
they don't take a knife to attract me.
People who don't intend to hurt anyone,
like the mom said,
they don't go to where they are not supposed to be.
People who don't intend to hurt anyone,
like the mom said,
they don't stay in that place where they were not supposed to be.
And after being asked approximately 15 times by every other person in that tent that included a number of black students,
you don't intend to hurt anyone, then you leave.
But Carmelo Anthony didn't leave.
And if you don't intend to hurt anyone, like his mom said, you definitely don't bring out your Swiss Army knife.
And if you don't intend to hurt anyone like your mom said, you definitely don't plunge it into someone's chest.
so forcibly that it goes through bone.
So his mom is a liar.
And she's a liar because she lied about the makeup of the jury.
She's a liar because they tried to act like all the witnesses were white.
Over half of the witnesses were black.
And they all said the same thing.
And I mean, wild.
Just wild.
And they want those jury members.
They want to find out who they're going.
those jurors are.
That's, you don't get, you don't just get to, your, your skin color does not give you a pass to
go and stab people and start problems.
It just doesn't do that.
A couple of other things.
Moving back, you know, I was talking earlier about all of the Europeans that were coming
to the United States and, you know, touring the United States because of World Cup and
all of this, you know, the biggest competition, probably, the biggest match and matches in
World Cup history. And they're trying to say they had to come up with some way to make it look bad.
I don't want to say the name of it, but it's this Washington, D.C. based media entity.
They're saying the 2026 World Cup could be the hottest and dirtiest ever, the most polluting tournament ever.
They've got to make, they've got to ruin it somehow. Somehow. They have to try to make it.
I'm surprised they're not trying to milkshake duck any of the.
the Europeans that are over here. That was one of the things I had in the back of my mind when I was
reading all of their different accounts of where they were going and watching the videos of
everywhere that they were visiting. I kept thinking the media is going to try to milkshack
these people, aren't they? They're going to try to get these folks, aren't they? I hope they
don't. All right, folks, so I want to tell you about something that actually works. This is the
world's number one expanding garden hose and their newest upgrade. It's the pocket hose.
I like anything that has the word ballistic after it.
I don't have time for cheap, stupid equipment that fails after one season.
I am done fighting with it.
I'm done with the kinks.
Eric Swalwell, I'm done with the tangles.
I'm done with the leaks.
I'm done with all of it.
It's a waste of money.
It's enraging.
So that's why the pocket hose ballistic, that's why you need to have this thing.
The strength is real.
It's reinforced with a liquid crystal polymer.
Now, you don't know what that is.
but you do know what it's been used in before.
Bulletproof vests.
So that means, my friends, the strength is real.
Real durability.
No nonsense.
It's not going to mess up your garden.
It's not going to like tie a knot around you.
If you're tied to replacing your cheap hose every year, this is your fix.
The ballistic is lightweight.
It's super easy to handle.
And I like what comes with it.
It comes with the pocket pivot.
So no more fighting the spigot.
And ladies, it's gold.
Where it moves, you move, you move, it moves.
It's so simple.
It's smart.
You're done.
for a limited time when you purchase a new pocket hose ballistic,
you're going to get that free, you see it right here,
360-degree rotating pocket pivot,
and a free thumb-drive nozzle.
Just text Dana to 6430s.
That's Dana to 64-0-0-0 for your two free gifts with purchase.
Message and data rates may apply.
And now, all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So we're still watching all that stuff with the Pentagon, CNN,
saying that it looks like a false alarm, which I'm kind of inclined.
I mean, I would like for it to be.
Otherwise, it's super spooky.
But that's some of the latest reporting that they're waiting to get confirmation, I think,
from the Pentagon.
NBA, the final score, the largest Game 3 audience since the Jordan era.
ABC's telecast averaged almost 24 million viewers Monday night.
That's huge.
26.3 million viewers.
That was what they clocked at 11 to 15 p.m. Eastern time in the closing minutes.
That's pretty wild.
Now, the series is going to go at least five after San Antonio's win Monday.
So they said that the finals are averaging over 19 million viewers.
That's pretty, that's only second.
They said to the 2017 finals, that was maybe just a little bit over for the first three games.
So there's a lot of ad sales happening on that.
World's largest graveyard, this is Sogoth, discovered by a sub at the bottom of the ocean.
They say it's totally unexpected.
Yeah, nobody unexpects the ocean bottom graveyard.
You're right.
But they said it was found in the Indian Ocean by Chinese scientists, and that means CCP, so I don't believe it.
Humans prefer to walk anti-clockwise scientists fine, but the reason is unclear.
And I have no idea why they even decided to study why humans prefer to walk anti-clockwise.
So that's counterclockwise.
That's the actual phrase that smart people use.
I know everyone's like, what is this anti-clockwise?
It's counterclockwise.
But they said that there's a left turn bias, not me.
I will turn right just because I'm so allergic to the left.
I only make right turns.
I only turn right.
Yeah, that's right.
If you turn right three times, it's the left.
You know, I'm just saying.
We have, I don't know, I ran out of time.
But I have a lot more coming up.
Don't admit, we got a lot of stuff to update you on.
Stay with us.
Our partners that help bring you the program.
It's the folks over at Ghostbed.
Ghostbed is the bed that I sleep on.
It's so comfortable.
If you haven't switched to a ghost bed, you might as well just sleep on a pile of trash
because that's what all the other mattresses are.
And I say this is someone who spent a sinful amount on what I thought was going to be the best mattress ever.
And then like a year into having it, I'm like, I hate this mattress so bad.
It's horrible.
So we got a ghost bed.
And the Ghostbed, you know that it's built differently right out of the gate.
It's just better construction, better material.
materials, the whole thing is just better. And the cooling tech that other mattress companies want to
upcharge you for, that's built into every mattress. It's not an upgrade over at GhostBed. In fact,
hot sleepers are their happiest customers. You can go and read some of the reviews. It's all
on this thing called the Internet. It's all out there. And you're going to notice when you sleep on
it, less tension, better temperature. You're not tossing and turning to get comfortable. Look,
your bed, as this is how GhostBed use it, is a piece of health equipment. If you're not resting and
restoring at night, you're negatively impacting your health. So get ghostbed a better mattress and don't
waste your summer on bad sleep. You get 101 nights to try it in your home. And if you don't feel the
difference, send it back risk-free. And they're also offering all of you an extra 10% off.

So we gave you the update about Iran. Apparently, we are
not going to be bombing after we said we were bombing. I don't know. That's not happening. So
he's, Pota says, I mean, he said that they're coming close to a deal, but he didn't say that a deal was
made. And this isn't the first time that we've heard that a deal is, I guess, close enough
that military action isn't required. But we've all watched this before. Like I told you, Iran has
zero interest in making any kind of a deal. They have no interest. They never have had an interest
in making any kind of a deal ever. They never will. They don't want to. They have no interest in it.
It's not anything they want to do. And this is just a song and dance to stretch it all out as much as
possible. That's all this is. And so POTUS says, I don't know. Some people are saying, well,
maybe the Carg Island threat worked. It's not the first time.
that he's brought it up, though.
It's not the first time.
Apparently, so Axios, and I don't like this guy,
I think the guys in Iran are stooge for Iran over at Axios.
And he's always the guy that all this stupid stuff comes in.
Like, he was the guy who was pushing the Lebanon stuff about Lebanon being involved in
the ceasefire for Pakistan when it was never involved.
He's saying that Iran made some key concessions.
Well, what?
What are the concessions?
The, apparently the gaps narrowed for,
three key issues, the mechanism for releasing frozen assets, which is apparently important to the
regime, arrangements for reopening the straight, and then nuclear program, how those negotiations
over the program will be conducted during the 60-day ceasefire. I'm done with it. Now, this is not a
peace deal, by the way. Don't think it is. It's not even like a full-on ceasefire at all. This is just
a framework for negotiation to do that. I don't know. I mean, Iran has always said they're not
giving up anything on nuclear. That's it. So, I mean, they've already kind of walked, they already
walked back on the Strait of War Moos. They already walked back on ceasefire. So, I mean, I don't know why
we're giving them another chance unless there's something. Look, I'm waiting to see because remember
the last time they were going back and forth on this, the Saudis, that was to buy the Saudis time.
So the Saudis could get this alternate pipeline in place and bypass the straight for at least a portion of
So that gave them enough time to do that.
I don't know what this is, but I don't know.
I mean, the oil prices, they've been, you know,
they were kind of going drifting, they'd be kind of going downward,
descending, so to speak.
But, you know, CENTCOM says the straight's open.
Yeah, until, you know, they got drones there, though.
That's what our Apache, our Apache helicopter was,
surveying the area when some Iranian drones took it down.
So we'll see.
Maybe we'll have some more insight tonight.
But, you know, I'm telling you, I don't know where we're going with us.
Because how long has it been going?
I mean, we've had two months that a deal was all but set.
That's what we heard for the past couple of months.
So I think people need a little bit more insight as all I'm saying.
they, they're going to have faith that POTUS can negotiate a deal.
And we don't need to see everything right away, but we need something different than what we've
been told for the past two months.
I think it's fair to say, right, Kane?
Yeah.
I think it's fair to say.
I think it always is an issue of messaging because Trump is not only the guy that we expect
to hear the messaging from, but we also get it from the media after the filter.
And so he's got a double battle there.
So he's got to be articulate.
and he's got to spell this out for people like you and me who actually are like, wait a minute.
Yeah.
We need a little bit more.
And, you know, the other thing, too, is that he's a really good messenger, which makes me wonder, who's pulling him back?
I, again, 10-4, I think that somebody is trying to pull him back from this.
Again, I think that's the anti- Yeah.
Yeah.
I think that he also is, look, this is a military operation, so I'm going to intentionally not say a lot about it.
Yeah, well, I don't need to, yeah, we don't even know all the,
cards yet, but the American people to support things going forward are going to need more insight than that.
All right, today in stupidity.
All right. Democrat Rep. Summerlee says if black Americans don't get reparations, they're just
not going to vote. Wow, listen to this. But yeah, it's absurd. And that's, and that's what they do.
Because again, they're trying to disenfranchise you. Because if you believe that you're never going
to get reparations from the system, then you tap out. Oh, don't vote. And then you won't for sure get
representation. That makes sense.
I mean, if it's the left
that's saying they won't vote, I'm okay with that.
Don't vote. Don't do it.
