KLZ 560 AM DENVER'S CONSERVATIVE HOME STATION
Menu
In a world grappling with ever-pressing challenges, this episode touches upon the critical situations unfolding at the US-Mexico border and how political relations are evolving. Additionally, we delve into the broader economic impacts, as inflation continues to bite the average citizen. Join us as we unpack these pressing issues, examining both domestic and international relationships, and what they mean for ordinary citizens. This is more than just news; it’s about advocating for justice and righteousness on a global stage.
SPEAKER 13 :
Buster Poindexter is back because inflation is hot, hot, hot. January inflation numbers have continued to climb and the media has already found a way to pin this on Trump. We’ve done this to ourselves for a long period of time because inflation is not going away. Check out the Watchdog on Wall Street podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you get your podcast.
SPEAKER 14 :
Trump did say during the campaign he’d release these files. So it’s not like this came out of the blue. Jeffrey Epstein did act as an informant to the FBI. Is the bureau embarrassed? Is the bureau embarrassed that they let hundreds of young victims down? This was all happening right under everyone’s noses. Epstein was probably an intelligence asset rumored to be working with the Israelis, maybe this country, probably other countries. Was he a double agent? He had dirt on everyone and an act for making cash. And he’s dead. So the government has no one to protect.
SPEAKER 05 :
Jesse Waters, you recognize that voice. Hey, welcome to the Dana Show. I’m Sergio Sanchez from the land of Starbase, Texas, the Rio Grande Valley, deep South Texas. That’s right. We’re on the border. This is the Southern Command of the Dana Show. I’m Sergio Sanchez, an honor that you join us. And on that big nothing burger from yesterday. So far, right? I’m looking for updates. I’ve got TVs on here in the studio here at KURV, Dana Show Faithful and Faithful. I’m looking for somebody to come up to the podium and say, hey, we’ve got the other 1,800 pages. You know, there were 200 that we released. We had 1,800 or more. I’m kind of hoping for that follow-up, the schwetting from Vikes and dun-dun-dun-dun, like everybody else breaking in. We’ve got news coverage. Names, you know, accomplices. but jeffrey epstein and child molesters child rapist the human traffickers yes very powerful people we’ve seen pictures of them titans of hollywood titans of industry high-tech politicians you name it all these people with with jeffrey epstein i think you still want to know i want to know i’m not giving up on this and and i would hope that People who write op-eds and talk radio hosts that have daily national platforms on a regular basis. Even in the White House press pool. Go back to the press chief over at the White House. And let’s keep pressing. Let’s keep asking. Seriously, is that it? All this build-up. All this hype. Look, as all things, Donald Trump, I think you have learned, I have learned, and there’s an initial story to any controversy or any allegation with Donald Trump. If you have not learned to wait, then you haven’t learned a thing. So that’s where I am at right now. I do have, man, I do have a lot of questions, like I know you do as well. And this Nothing Burger Jeffrey Epstein thing that came out yesterday, I’m waiting for some more. There was supposed to be some deadline this morning. We had Pam Bondi, the Attorney General, saying, okay, I want everything on my display at 8 o’clock Eastern, 7 o’clock my time here, Central Time. I want all these files from New York FBI offices, Southern District FBI offices, New York. Hello, Cash! You know, Cash, can you go in there, like, make a trip to southern New York and say, hey, let’s start turning, open up all the files, all the desks, let’s start looking at all the shredder, let’s go in there and check everything. That’s what I want. I don’t know about you, but I think you being like-minded, listening to the Dana Show, listening to Conservative Talk Radio, I think you and I are probably on the same page. I want a forceful hand Much like, you know, they did it to Donald Trump, they go in there with cameras turned on, they tip the media, they go through Melania’s drawer looking for federal documents. Well, I want those documents. I want those investigatory documents on Jeffrey Epstein. Maybe, as you heard at the beginning of this program, you had Jesse Waters saying, well, maybe he was a double agent, and he had dirt on everybody, and now they’re discovering that they got, and this is what I got from what Jesse was saying, is that maybe you need to truly cover up everything because he was a double agent, maybe he was working for Israel or something. I don’t know. I don’t care. a flip. I don’t care. I want to know. It was promised to me. We’ve been waiting all this time for the, we want to expose who the child rapist, child molesterous accomplices of Jeffrey Epstein are. I don’t care if their names are CEOs or former CEOs of big tech firms and they’re politicians and they’re Hollywood times. Oh, you just love, you know, this movie star from that cartoon and this favorite movie star from it. I don’t care. I want to know. This is a big nothing-berg yesterday. I don’t want to let it go. And I don’t think you should let it go. And I think we need to demand from, I don’t know, there’s probably no power in calling your congressman or your senator, but if you do engage them in one-on-one conversations, when you go out there to those town hall meetings that some of y’all have been attending, yeah, get out there, get in their face and say, hey, this is unacceptable. You need to do your part as a representative, as a senator, to get word back to FBI, get word back to the Attorney General, get back to the Justice Department, saying, we were promised those names. There was so much excitement, so much buildup, that there was more information. That the details of this would make your stomach turn. The details of all this would just make you sick. There was all this scandalous information that needed to be revealed to the American people. Well, I’m looking at the cable right now. There’s Volodymyr Zelensky walking indoors after he decided to finally bend a knee to Donald Trump and decided to pay us back, our nation back, our kids back when it comes to some of the natural resources in Ukraine. We need answers to this. Don’t let it go. Demand answers. I know calls to Congress won’t work, but we’ve got to do something. You cannot let this disappear with other headlines. I refuse to allow that. It is Friday. We’ve got the weekend in front of us. Next Monday, we’re not going to pick this up. Whatever pages we’re missing. Or, at the very least, to ask President Trump, and this would be something for the press pool, to ask President or the spokesperson, Ms. Leavitt, Is President Trump going to make a statement related to the nothing burger of this Epstein Files? Because we were expecting to hear scandalous information, hear familiar names, who were the accomplices in little girl rape, child rape. We need to know these things. Those individuals either need to be prosecuted or they just need to disappear forever. turn in the keys to their executive bathroom at their CEO office and whatever corporation bank they work at or just retire from whatever it is acting or politics you need to leave you gotta go I wish you’d be prosecuted for child rape but American we need to keep this out there as a one big fat question mark is a cancer because if this is just me and I know that we suffer from ADD as a nation you know Here comes another headline. Squirrel! There you go. You start chasing it and you forget about the main issue, the main problem. This was promised to us. I do believe this is a stain on the presidency, potentially on the presidency. But again, I’ll take a stab back, like I was telling just a couple of minutes back. Hang on. Wait. Had a nothing burger yesterday. That Pam Bondi out there, the Attorney General, saying, well, I’m going to demand from the Southern District Office, New York, FBI office, I want the rest of the documents. I want Cash Patel to go out there and get them. Yeah, I do, too. How about you? Hey, Cash, why don’t you call Fox News when you actually go to the FBI office, even so they can see play-by-play coverage of what’s going on and you’re demanding and busting heads or going through the shredders, whatever you need to do to it. Certain individuals sent on this information that had an opportunity for coverage, they had it for way too long. It is obvious to everybody. My big question of the day is the Attorney General who told us like two weeks ago it was on her desk. The information was on her desk. And I guess they had the time to put together a little folder with some of the repeat information that was non-sexy, it was already released, and just gave it out there for people to consume online. They revealed nothing new yesterday. Nothing that allows us a chance right now to expose certain leadership that either need to be prosecuted or need to go away. We need those answers. I mean, I put this issue Which, by the way, so far so good with the Trump administration. Promises made, promises kept. We got tax legislation moving. Eh, somewhat of what was promised. They still got time to go back and iron out the promises made related to tax cuts in our nation. But on border security, promises made, promises kept. Now, everybody’s fearful of crossing the U.S.-Mexican border, and that’s good. We’ve yet to see movement on energy issues, liquefied natural gas exports, production of oil. That’s going to take time to ramp up. It’s also going to take time to work with issues related to inflation, for example, looking at this story on ag prices. And the approach by the USDA on how to grow little baby chicks, little precious little baby chicks, grow them into full-sized chickens, which would take about four or five months, and then you start producing those eggs, and then we’re about T-minus six months away from lower egg prices. But as important as, this is just me, and I know it doesn’t affect the price of eggs. I know it doesn’t do anything when it comes to border security or energy or inflation or anything like that. But this is yet another example how criminals rats swamp creatures the truly powerful rich the politicians won political salaries wind up becoming multi-millionaire super-rich note this is the swamp this is a promise made to us that a major swamp creature in his accomplices would be taken down and as i said if it’s if it’s like if you’re not gonna take down those accomplices and in charge of the crimes then at the very least expose them for public shame and for the public to tar and feather them, criticize them to the point where they’ve got to go. Board of Directors, where all these folks in committees, they demand the resignation of their top chiefs of industry and tech and wherever they may come from. We want that list. I speak for you by saying I want that list. I hope this is not the end of it. I’m still looking at the cables, waiting for any breaking news on the Epstein stuff. Do not, do not let it go. Tariff’s on the way. For Canada, tariffs on the way for Mexico on Monday. Hey, wait a second. I thought we were all amigos. Yeah, 30 days ago, about 30 days ago, President Trump said, well, if you guys, Canada, Mexico specifically, you guys help in the fight against fentanyl trafficking, in the fight against human trafficking, you guys help out? then, yeah, I’ll put the kibosh on that. And immediately, you heard from Mexico, yeah, well, we’re going to embrace the military on the U.S.-Mexican border. I honestly, just talking with other folks who are at Border Patrol and Customs and ICE, Immigration Customs, for retired and active duty, and also journalists who are in Mexico, we have the blessing of speaking with a dear friend, Poncho Ortiz, with Breitbart.com, who has… Mexico sources deep inside Mexico, from the border where the cartels are fighting, you know, have fire fights on a regular basis, to deep inside Mexico. The military that was sent to the U.S.-Mexican border was not that good. There’s very few people in law enforcement capacity in Mexico that you can actually trust. The military that is closest to Mexico City, the presidency and the government, Their paycheck, their livelihood, their love of nation of Mexico is strong enough where you could say, okay, these dudes and dudettes, mostly dudes, yeah, they’re not going to sell themselves to the cartels. That would be, they call them La Marina, the Marines, La Marina in Mexico. Our military, I understand, is working with them We’ve got drone flights deep into Mexico. They’re looking for the factories. We’ve got some training taking place on the ground. And that’s important because it is our military who, over a decade ago, almost two decades ago, they started doing some training of Mexican military. They turned out to be the cartels and the cartel soldiers, the Zetas. They turned our military training into full-throttle operations of smuggled drugs and people. These criminal cartels that now we are fighting. I have a conversation related to all this, the efforts by the U.S. and Mexico. And the tariffs that are still on the way on Monday, they’re not. I guess Mexico hasn’t done enough. One of the big stories, and we’ll share information on that, is in Mexico City, sending the Mexican government 29 cartel figures. One of them you might recognize. You’ve been keeping up with the news for decades now. 29 cartel individuals flown to the U.S. They’re on their way. But on the way are also the tariffs on Monday. So how’s that going to play out? Yeah, stay tuned. Check your local news, news radio, talk radio channel. I’m Sergio Sanchez, and reporting to you, yes, from the U.S.-Mexican border, KURV, the studio, Dana Show faithful affiliate. So stick around.

SPEAKER 05 :
From the Dana Show Southern Command in South Texas, I’m Sergio Sanchez. And for Dana Today, if you fly Southwest Airlines, I’ve got some good news for you. You’ve got more websites where you can go fish for some of the Southwest Airline flights. So they’ve got an agreement with the Expedia companies, like Travelocity, Cheap Tickets, Hotwire, all those, Expedia.com. You can go book a flight now. Southwest Airlines flights. They used to force you to go to the website and purchase Southwest. Let’s see what else is here. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is now dropping lawsuits left and right. Companies like Rocket Mortgage, Capital One, under Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency. CFPB is also needing to close some of their buildings. Capital One, for example, was accused of milking, that’s a word in the news, milking customers out of $2 billion in interest payments. Well, you need to borrow money. You got to pay the interest. This is nothing more than the Department of Government shakedowns. And I’ve always wondered when they shake down some of these companies, where does the money go? Who’s using that money? From the… Really, I don’t care department. I know Dana probably didn’t give a flip either. But yeah, the Oscars this weekend. The only news that I found interesting was like the goodie bag. So the people who are reading awards and all that, they’re getting like a six-figure goodie bag full of luggage, alcohol, books, skin care products, all that stuff. From South Texas, I’m Sergio Sanchez. This is The Dana Show.

SPEAKER 07 :
How much money is the U.S. going to put into the fund that is being created today? And how does this provide long-term security for Ukraine?
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, we don’t know exactly how much because we’re going to be putting some money in a fund that we’re going to get from the raw earth that we’re going to be taking and sharing in terms of revenue. So it’s going to be a lot of money will be made from the sale and from the use of raw earth. And as you know, our country doesn’t have much raw earth. We have a lot of oil. and gas, but we don’t have a lot of the raw earth. And what we do have is protected by the environmentalists, but that could be unprotected. But still, it’s not very much. They have among the best in the world in terms of raw earth. So we’re going to be using that, taking it, using it for all of the things we do, including AI and including weapons and the military. And it’s really going to very much satisfy our needs.
SPEAKER 05 :
That’s the president just moments back sitting down with Volodymyr Zelensky from Ukraine right next to him. And I understand also Marco Rubio. Marco was there, JD Vance. And there was some type of heated exchange. I think Volodymyr tried to grab the mic and try to lead the discussion. on foreign policy or how this was going to go down. And I know Steve’s working on getting that audio. So you stick around. We’re going to share that audio with you here in just a little bit. Oh, by the way, this is The Dana Show. I’m Sergio Sanchez, and we’re broadcasting The Dana Show. I’m filling in for Dana today from her southern command here in the Rio Grande Valley at Texas Starbase USA, which is going to be a real town, by the way. Elon Musk was trying to incorporate Starbase into like a real town with zip code and mayor and alderman and all that. So on the issue of all these minerals, they keep saying, okay, the U.S. gets minerals and is able to develop the minerals in Ukraine and extract that. Great. I’m so glad that we’ve got a real businessman, a real negotiator in the White House that is negotiating on your behalf for the money that you sent and your kids sent and your grandkids sent because after all, it’s also deficit spending, right? I mean, you’re talking about taxation without representation. Your kids and grandkids have to pay the T-bills, the debt. All these hundreds of billions of dollars in resources sent to Ukraine. It was a gift. Like, dude, Biden, Congress, Pentagon. That’s not your money. We worked for that. Our kids are going to have to work for that because it’s all deficit spending. ST bill. So it’s good to negotiate how to pay all that back. So for all these reporters that are screaming and concerned that, where’s the guaranteed security? Where’s the guarantee of security? They all repeat the same thing. You know what the guarantee of security is? That we have a business agreement, a business arrangement with the folks from Ukraine to provide them a revenue source and provide us a compensation source for them to get bullets and get rifles and bombs that they need to protect themselves. If Ukraine doesn’t exist, we don’t get none of that, right? There’s your security guarantee. We provide security for our business partner. We want to make sure that we collect on the hundreds of billions of dollars that have been sent so far. So stay tuned for that audio. That’s an interesting audio from… Oh, you got it already, Steve? Here’s how it went. I think that Volodymyr Zelensky was trying to hijack the conversation. I think they tackled him on this one. Go ahead, Steve.
SPEAKER 07 :
Talking about the kind of diplomacy that’s going to end the destruction of your country. Yes, but if you are not strong… Mr. President, with respect, I think it’s disrespectful for you to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media. Right now, you guys are going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems. You should be thanking the President to bring it into this conflict. Have you ever been to Ukraine that you say what problems we have? I have actually watched and seen the stories, and I know what happens is you bring people, you bring them on a propaganda tour, Mr. President. Do you disagree that you’ve had problems bringing people into your military? And do you think that it’s respectful to come to the Oval Office of the United States of America and attack the administration that is trying to prevent the destruction of your country? A lot of questions.
SPEAKER 04 :
Let’s start from the beginning. First of all, during the war,
SPEAKER 03 :
everybody has problems even you but you have nice ocean and don’t feel now but you will feel it in the future god bless you don’t know that god bless you god bless you don’t know don’t tell us what we’re going to feel we’re trying to solve a problem don’t tell us what we’re going to feel i’m not telling you because you’re in no position to dictate that remember this you’re in no position to dictate what we’re going to feel We’re going to feel very good. We’re going to feel very good and very strong. You’re right now not in a very good position.
SPEAKER 04 :
You’ve allowed yourself to be in a very bad position, and he happens to be right about it. You’re not in a good position.
SPEAKER 03 :
You don’t have the cards right now. With us, you start having cards. Right now, you’re playing cards. You’re playing cards. You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people. You’re gambling with World War III.
SPEAKER 17 :
You’re gambling with World War III.
SPEAKER 05 :
I don’t need… Wow, this guy is bullheaded. Oh, Volodymyr Zelensky, that dude is real bullheaded. My goodness. Man, whatever agreement comes out today… I don’t know if it’s going to be worth the ink or the paper that it’s written on. So that’s just moments back, Waldemar Zielinski arguing like a strong man positioning himself in front of J.D. Vance, in front of the president. Like, what do you mean that you’re going to feel this influence in the future? Is that some type of threat? And this is where the word dictator applies. A little dictator getting all this bravado in him with nothing to show for it. All credit to the Ukrainian people, the courageous men who went to the front line, Volodymyr Zelensky, and gathering generals and leadership to fight Vladimir Putin. If true from the very beginning, if Vladimir Putin had gone in there and like in one week or two weeks, I suppose if all the predictions had come true, Ukraine would be nothing but an extension of Mother Russia, right? It would be just a big old territory with lots of natural resources and harbors. But that’s not the case. Volodymyr Zelensky, he gathered the troops, they nationalized, and there they go. The Russians have suffered mightily. The Russians, they’ve been reduced. They’ve been taken down several notches. The great world superpower that was what we suspected was the Russian army turned out to be what? Nothing but a paper bear, thanks to the Ukrainian forces, thanks to Volodymyr Zelensky. Maybe that’s why he feels all this bravado, is that he was able to give Vladimir Putin and the Russians a bloody nose. But today is supposed to be a day to move us a big step forward, don’t you think? Big step forward to getting an agreement. Okay, you got the resources. We’ve given you billions of dollars as a gift, and that was wrong. That was not Washington’s money to give, to gift to Ukraine. The Europeans, the Europeans do have some skin in this. They have provided billions of euros, billions of dollars as well, but not enough in my opinion. In my opinion, it was supposed to be Europe. There was supposed to pony up all the security money for this. Because it’s their backyard. I know that now, by I think the last I saw, by a six to four ratio, The Europeans are providing more in financial support and military support, providing planes and other things. Good. Six to four ratio. From the very beginning, it should have been nine to one. Don’t you think? This is their backyard. This is Europe. Ukraine is a part of Europe. Europe gets invaded. It’s not part of NATO. It doesn’t trip the air. the hair-thin wire, the trip wire, to start a NATO engagement against Russia. But it’s the Europeans that should have woken up from the very beginning. This is what we get from decades and decades and decades, post-World War II mindset, where it’s the United States of America that somehow must continue to fund all these air bases and all these military bases. No, sir. At what point are these people going to provide for their own security? It’s like your granddaddy and great-granddaddy Not only for some of y’all, your great-granddaddy or granddaddy who fought in World War II to liberate Europe. You shed your family blood on the beaches of Normandy, in the fields of Germany, in the fields of France. American precious blood was spilled in Europe to save their sorry butts. Yes, we set up the security arrangements to rebuild Europe. Did any of that get paid back? No, I don’t think so, right? The Marshall Plan. I don’t think it was a loan, correct me if I’m wrong, sergio at kurv.com. So much has been gifted through generations by this country, and the ingrates in Europe still have the gall, the audacity, to say, oh, the U.S. needs to take the lead. Why? Why can’t you take the lead? It is your neighborhood. You push back against Vladimir Putin. You show them your resolve to fund, to weaponize Ukraine, to fight back, to join in the battlefields if necessary, without it being some NATO engagement. Show Vladimir Putin that you’re willing to push back. The only reason he pushes on you is because he knows you’re going to fold like a cheap tent in Europe. My goodness, the mindset of these people. Thank God we have President Trump at the White House saying, yo, Volodymyr, you’re in no position to negotiate, son. Now, God bless you, this is my words, God bless you for fighting valiantly, all the thousands of Ukrainian souls, brave young men and old men, men of all ages going to the front lines to try to save Ukraine from Russia. God bless you for that. I tell you what, I believe Volodymyr Zelenskyy doesn’t take this deal. and does start paying back the U.S. and buying more weapons from the U.S. with the God-given natural resources that the previous administration nincompoop Joe Biden and his minions never thought, never even considered offering to Ukraine. Hey, you know how Russia is, you know, Russia, Vladimir Putin, he’s selling oil, you know, against what we did, the sanctions and all that. He’s selling to India and China, making billions of dollars selling all that, buying all the weapons, all the bombs that he needs. Well, you’ve got some natural resources. How about you buy the weapons? Because God has given you lots of nice, natural resources. In essence, that’s what it is. We’re not shaking down Ukraine for nothing. We’re the ones who got robbed. We’re the ones who got shaken down to the tune of billions of dollars that our children and grandkids have to pay. Thank God for Donald Trump. He’s telling them how it is. And I tell you what, if the Ukrainians and Voldemorts are listening, do not take up this deal and actually go through with it and pay up and pony up. And if the Europeans don’t stand up and protect their neighborhood, that’s it. As beaten up as the Russian bear is, man, he can call Pyongyang, get in 100,000, 200,000 meat puppets from North Korea, these poor souls, these slaves from North Korea, put them out there as chum so that his Russian forces can take the rest of Ukraine. Oh my goodness. That’s what we’re dealing with right now up in D.C. Thank you, Steve, for gathering that audio. Let’s see what else is coming up. This is The Dana Show. I’m Sergio Sanchez. We’re broadcasting from her Southern Command in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. Oh my goodness. I’m going to share with you my thoughts. I wasn’t going to give too much airplay on this, but look, I’m looking at the following story from a different perspective. It is payday. It’s the final day. For many of us, it’s payday. It’s the final day of February. It’s a day to go celebrate. Celebrate companies, courageous board of directors, courageous CEOs that are standing up with the Trump administration, standing up with this changing political tide, realizing that so-called diversity and equity, that Marxist idea, of equity, this woke stupidity of inclusion, this DEI crap that has brainwashed so many people in academia and in corporate America that have allowed themselves to be brainwashed the past four years. Donald Trump said, no, flush this all down the toilet. Ain’t nothing but crap. And we have some courageous big-name industries and business. Walmart said, no more DEI. Bye-bye. Bye-bye. Target, no DEI, Target, ain’t that crazy? Target, they were in the front lines not too many months ago, embarrassingly, and man, Delia and I, we like, my wife and I, we stopped going to Target when they were, they had all this LGBTQXYZ123, like literally satanic stuff as soon as you walked into the stores. All these Satanist-looking trans craziness, right? All the merchandise, all the paraphernalia, all the swag, right there at the very front, like right there for your kids to see. No, I don’t think so. Target, over a decade ago, was right in the middle of the culture wars where they were allowing trans, you know, they were allowing men cosplaying as women to go into women’s restaurants. Remember that fight about 10 years ago? And then it led to the loss of about billions of dollars in stock valuation. The CEO got canned at Target. No, Target of all companies. They’re saying, yeah, DEI, no, that’s not going to happen in Target stores anymore. Walmart, Target, Amazon, no more DEI. So today is a day to celebrate American retail, to celebrate American stores that have been courageous enough to say no to DEI. That’s how I’m looking at this little movement of a crazy small minority out there saying they want to protest. You know, you, on this payday, do all your shopping today. Whatever it is that you need to buy, new shoes or some bath stuff or detergent, there you go, Walmart, Amazon, Target, buy some extra chocolate or chocolate powder, Nestle, go celebrate all the companies. Let’s say no to DEI. That’s the day that we celebrate today on the final day of February. Ten minutes to the hour. You’re listening to The Dana Show. From South Texas KURV Studios, faithful affiliate of The Dana Show, I’m Sergio Sanchez.
SPEAKER 11 :
We’ve got a lot to come as we move our partners that help bring you the program. It’s our friends over at Tax Network USA. Aren’t you so excited? All your tax dollars, what do you got to show for it?

SPEAKER 05 :
From the Dana Show Southern Command, it is the Rio Grande Valley of Texas, right here on the U.S.-Mexican border. I’m Sergio Sanchez, and for my friend Dana Lash, hey, you speak English? You speak English? Of course we do. Yeah, Donald Trump taking executive pen to paper and saying, yeah… It’s about darn time somebody say at leadership level, English is our national language. That report, my thoughts on that. Next hour of the program. From a market… Should I say it? I’m looking at my producer, Freddie. A market where 65% of the population on the U.S.-Mexican border… They speak Espanol exclusively. Okay. The Pope is mistaken. That’s not a laughing matter. Pope is sick, and I know some of y’all in my Roman Catholic family, you guys out there wringing your hands and praying for healing. But there’s something that the Pope really desperately needs right now before the Lord tells him to clock out. And I’ll share that with you next hour. Also, a conversation I had with Fr. Frank Pavone from Priests for Life, and he agreed with me 100% on this. Let’s see, I got about a half minute left. I’m going to send some shout-outs to a friend who I’ve made online, Larry, Larry Lawrence, from our Las Vegas affiliate. I spend more time with Larry and other people on the thread online than I spend time with my family, it seems, some days. We’re so busy around here. A big hug to you, Larry. A big hug to my friend Brian Kaufman in Cincinnati, beautiful Cincinnati, Ohio, listening to WMOH, faithful affiliate for The Dana Show. From South Texas, this is The Dana Show.

SPEAKER 02 :
The email that came out wanting us to justify our jobs with five things we did last week was on Saturday night. And I was literally working on Saturday night to make up for all the distractions I had had the previous week, which came from the executive branch. And so I’m working, trying to catch up on things, and then I get that email on top of it. It’s very hard to keep your train of thought when you’re getting threatened and harassed like that.
SPEAKER 05 :
Well, tell you what, threatened and harassed and having to justify your existence in private industry, man, that’s a day-to-day occurrence. And may I remind all federal workers and all state workers and county and city, I don’t mean to be insulting, but let’s face the facts here. The golden goose has to lay the golden egg, and you have to take a shaving off, you have to steal a shaving off of it in order to provide for all sorts of government jobs. Government does not create wealth. Welcome to Hour 2 of the Dana Show. I’m Sergio Sanchez in for my friend Dana Lash, as I like to say, from the land of Starbase, Texas. That’s right, our neighbor Elon Musk is right down the street. Elon Musk is the Rio Grande Valley of Texas, studios of KURV. Or as I say, the Southern Command of the Dana Show. I’m Sergio Sanchez. Appreciate you tuning in. Can you justify? Oh, and by the way, before I say this question. On the whole issue of the Nothing Burger yesterday, as I said last hour, the Nothing Burger being the whole Epstein files and the 200 pages that were released with information that had already been released, we saw nothing new. We did not see any incriminating allegations. We did not see anybody being perp-walked yesterday as a result of the release of this information. Somehow somebody’s dragging their feet on this. I want to believe that it is the Southern Office of New York, FBI office, apparently may have sat on this way too long or maybe they’re crafting the excuse as to why they’re not gonna let you and I figure out what happened to all this information on the accomplices the child rapist the child molesters the human traffickers the multi billionaires and millionaires that provided for all these It’s hard for me. Like sex parties with kids, with little girls. These bastards. The world needs to see who these SOBs are. And if this administration, this Justice Department, If they got cold feet, they don’t want to go after friends and funders and fellow titans of industry and business. Okay, well, we need to know who they are so that they run out of town. Tart and feathered, at least online, the board of directors see that this is not good for business to have the top chief that was with Jeffrey Epstein raping little girls. Yeah, we’re going to take a different direction. Look, if American industry and businesses On this day, that a small group of racist malcontents being led by the likes of this shakedown artist, Al Sharpton, the shyster that is Al Sharpton, doing a little ban on businesses, like, oh, the Trump administration getting rid of so-called diversity and equity, Marxist equity mindset. Inclusiveness, inclusiveness. They want to do a ban on shopping today, the last day of the month, which is payday. I know you’ve got a bank full of money right now. I tell you what, today, as I said last hour, today we celebrate. I’m going to call them courageous board of directors and CEOs who feel the political wind change and are unfurling their sails and going with it. Walmart, Target, Nestle, Amazon, so many other companies said no to this racist, Marxist, DEI crap. No more training employees a certain way, no more training HR a certain way, no more onboarding individuals to try to meet certain quotas. None of that crap is gone. The use of pronouns that adhere to that and the sensitivities that relate to all that, That stupidity is gone under Donald Trump, for the most part. It’s being applied at some universities. Conservative states are the ones that are doing the follow-up. Here in Texas, Governor Greg Abbott making sure that universities and public schools, we don’t see any of that. In fact, lawmakers up in Austin, they’re convening every two years. They’re convening right now. They’re talking about codifying into Texas law anti-the so-called diversity, Marxist equity, crazy inclusiveness, garbage. Get rid of it. There’s no room for that. No room for that racism and that brainwashing in Texas. California universities, they’re sticking their head beneath the sand, but that’s their own problem. California deserves the government that they have. The Republicans, the conservatives, you’ve got to do something, mightily do something to try to save California. But back to the issue of federal workers. Before I say this, Wait. Just wait a little bit. I refuse to give up on Kash Patel. I refuse to give up on Pam Bondi, despite the fact, and I said this question last hour. She told us about two weeks back, she had the files on her desk. Well, Pam, I know you’re busy and you’re trying to get it acclimated to your new offices and new staff. I know. In part, it is criticism. Because you stuck your neck, you put it out there, you said, I got the papers on my desk. And I’m wondering, you know, I’m seriously wondering, who was it that asked the question in a press conference? Was that the Ducey kid who asked, hey, what about the Epstein files? What about that? Somebody did us all a favor and asked like two weeks or three weeks ago, oh, it’s coming. And then you hear the attorney general saying, yeah, Pam Bondi saying, yeah, I got those files on my desk. Well, in two weeks, did you not check what it is that you distributed to everybody, all these little folders full of nothing information, nothing new? We know. We’ve seen the pictures. We’ve heard plenty of reports through the years. Who are the titans of entertainment, Hollywood, tech, industry? We know who those people are. Okay, what happened? Who else was involved? There was a nothing burger yesterday. A lot of hype up to it. And then nothing. A 200-page report of nothing, nothing new. And as I told you last time, as I’ve learned with Donald Trump through the years, we’ve all had to learn this. Usually there’s some scandalous allegation or, you know, some poop hits the fan. Okay, wait, wait. Just give it one day, two days, a few days. Eventually, everything comes back in favor of Donald Trump. The only thing is that for anyone, everyone that does have the ear of the president, I want him to know that you and I, we still want All the details. We want names. We don’t want the names of the victims, obviously. Pam Bond is saying, well, we’ve got to redact that information. The American public was promised this information. Mr. President, we are waiting for that information. Tell Kash Patel, go in there with media cameras, from Newsmax, from Fox, with whomever is willing to follow. Go in there. Invite the AP on this one. Go in there to the New York office, FBI office. Go find those papers. Go find those documents. FBI raid style, if needed, on their own people. Back to the federal workers and the emails that they throw out. I can justify my job. I’m in the private sector. I work in an industry. And everybody tuning in, all our affiliates understand the same thing, everybody in radio. There’s an evolution taking place in media. It’s fascinating. It is painful for many. People in print media have suffered mightily from this because, you know, 10, 15 years ago, everything goes online and all their writings are being shared online. People moving their eyeballs to social media. Twitter back then, Facebook, Instagram, whoever was alive. They’re getting their information from that. It seems that the majority of people are getting the information from online. So the print publication is gone. They went to the cemetery. The major magazine publications. and news outlets and big national papers their budgets just they were they were cut at the knees they’re gone no more advertising for those big publication okay then the evolution so in in media we have a generation that doesn’t understand television doesn’t see local television and they don’t know about radio as well of the affiliates tuning in right now, if you have a program right now that is creating a lifeboat to social media where your product, your brand, maybe your four call letters, your name is now a brand and you’re doing the social media thing where you’re onboarding, at the very least your voice broadcast, your commentary, you’re putting product out there so a newer generation that is 30 and younger who likely did not grow up with radio. Maybe their mom and dads weren’t smart enough to listen to talk radio, news radio in your market. You have to now onboard your information on X. Thank God for Elon Musk. Thank God for my neighbor right here down the street at Starbase. He saved us all by buying X, exposing the Marxist, communist liars in the media, how they suppressed the information, how they influenced… against you, liberty-minded individuals. They influenced the election against you. They lied to all of us. They suppressed all the information. They deplatformed Dana, the Washington Post, all these media outlets talking about truth. Well, Washington operatives, again, traitors, 50-51 so-called intelligence actors saying, oh, there’s nothing with Russian disinformation, all this. Hunter Biden laptop, all this filth. They just want you to vote for Donald Trump instead of Joe Biden. We got stung. And thank you, Elon Musk, for purchasing Twitter. Thank you, Elon Musk, for giving us X and giving us a platform for everybody to participate and community notes to slap things down or confirm things as well. So no surprise to me. Why the majority of Americans now say that they look to X, they look to Twitter, or they go to other social media to get their daily feed, which is, that’s dangerous. For dinosaur media and corporate media, that is dangerous because they no longer control the narrative. And it’s beautiful. These are beautiful times. It’s a renaissance of media and information. We’ve never seen this before. This is a beautiful time that we live in. That’s why we see advertising dollars going through the tank at leftist communist MSNBC, and they’re off-boarding all these idiots to spewing nothing but trash. CNN losing their their their eyeballs as well. They get still got idiots. They’re flapping their gums. Oh the gall of Jake Tapper by the way the goal of Jake Tapper, dude. Oh Jake Tapper you look like an idiot Nobody has told you could you get you’re surrounded by sycophants and yes people Jake Tapper No matter how many people get in front of you, your colleagues try to protect you and cut a spokesperson off. It is what it is. Jake Tapper, you look like an idiot. Publishing, trying to, you’re hawking a book out there about the decline, the mental decline of Joe Biden. Like, oh, I never knew him. Let me explain to you in my book how, you know, this compromise, the leadership in Washington, compromise, decision-making, the chief executive, the CEO’s office up in Washington, D.C., issues related to national security, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Whatever. Liar. Charlatan. He’s hawking a book out there on the decline, the mental decline, the competency of Joe Biden. My good. In this industry, in radio, in media, whatever, we got to stay in the black. Right, Larry? My turn, Larry. My turn. Larry. Larry. Like the little general. We’ve got to stay in the back, right? We need to send people out to the streets, knock on doors, get their door slammed in their face to sell puffs of air advertising for a certain amount. And there’s value in what we do because there’s value in our storytelling, our storytellers, local people, local media, local news, local weather reports, all that stuff. There’s value in that. It’s generational, 30 plus, I get it. Younger than 30, they don’t get it. But you guys need to onboard to social media to make your brand relevant to them. But in this day-to-day operation, I justify my existence at this microphone at KURV in South Texas. I even sell the programming. You got to make money. You got to bring in revenue. Federal workers can’t, by the thousands, by the thousands, federal workers cannot justify, sadly cannot justify their job. They cannot show Elon Musk and company how they generated revenue. How they saved tax money. They can’t do that. That’s why they need to go. And they are irrelevant. Whatever it is that you do, whether you’re working down the street at the supermarket or you’re driving trucks, you’re working at the gas station, you’re making lug nuts, whatever you do for a living in the private sector, you can justify it. your job, your existence, on the payroll, because your job creates value, creates wealth, creates revenue. On the federal side, they can’t say that. They depend on you to create the wealth, to create the revenue, so that you’re the golden goose. You lay the golden egg. They want to continue living high in the hall, shaving that golden egg to pay their salary and their great benefits, by the way, from the federal government. That has to stop. Elon Musk is right. My neighbor is right here in Brownsville. Elon Musk is right. We will not survive as a republic. We will not survive as a nation unless we do a U-turn. So more power to you, the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, Elon Musk and company. Keep digging. Keep saving us money. I’m Sergio Sanchez. You’re listening to The Dana Show, broadcasting from Southern Command in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas.
SPEAKER 11 :

SPEAKER 05 :
I’m Sergio Sanchez in for my friend Dana Lash from South Texas Federal Agencies planning to send another email to workers asking them for a rundown explanation of what they did last week. Man, how many more emails did they get? They didn’t get the first two. And you know why they didn’t get the first two? Probably they haven’t been to the office, haven’t logged into their job email in the longest time. They forgot their password. They need to call IT for that. Today is the day that we celebrate companies. Yeah, I know there’s another movement out there, but today is the day that we celebrate companies courageous enough to say no to racist, Marxist, DEI crap. So on this payday, final day of the month, go buy a little extra, spend a little extra over at Why not? Target. Yes, I know. They’re asking God for forgiveness on the whole woke stuff that they did. So Target said no to DEI. Walmart said no to DEI. Amazon said no to DEI. There’s a whole bunch of other companies. So spend a little extra within. And T-minus, approximately T-minus, six months and counting for cheaper egg prices. They might still be going up. Why? Because it takes about five months for the chickens to grow, and then around that time they start laying eggs. And they’ve got a big program and a big push, USDA, to not cull the herds and start producing more chickens. From South Texas, I’m Sergio Sanchez. This is The Dana Show.

SPEAKER 07 :
And one of the things that I have to be honest that I am most ashamed about is that in the United States of America, sometimes it is our foreign misadventures that lead to the eradication of historical Christian communities all over the world. And so when President Trump talks about the need to bring peace, whether it’s in Russia and Ukraine, whether it’s in the Middle East, we of course have to recognize that as a policy oriented towards saving lives and carrying out one of Christ’s most important commandments.
SPEAKER 05 :
J.D. Vance, our vice president, and if you have not seen his, you know, the movie version, or just read his book, Hillbilly Elegy, man, you’ve got to make time for that. I’m Sergio Sanchez, and you’re joining us today from South Texas. We join you today on The Dana Show from South Texas, the KURV studio, Deep South Texas, her Southern Command. Everything is falling apart, has fallen apart, up in D.C. at the White House. This conversation, Voldemar Zielinski, And J.D. Vance was talking about the foreign engagements that we go, and he was making reference to the peace that is necessary now between Ukraine and Russia. And U.S. involvement in that, no, we need hands-off. We need to be a broker for a peace. Comments from the president’s stand on the issue of Ukraine-Russia, it has to stop, and it’s got to stop now. President Trump yesterday on the issue of Ukraine, let’s cut one, Steve, real quick.
SPEAKER 03 :
We’re going to have a very successful piece, and I think it’s going to be a long-lasting piece. And I think it’s going to happen hopefully quickly. If it doesn’t happen quickly, it may not happen at all. And we want it for two reasons. Number one, I want to see on a humane basis, I want to see soldiers stop getting shot. Because largely it’s soldiers now. Towns have been obliterated. But it’s largely that. And I don’t want to pay billions and billions and billions of dollars, nor does the prime minister or anybody else, on a senseless war that should have never happened.
SPEAKER 05 :
We might have to wait a while. About two hours ago, Volodymyr Zelensky was received at the White House with smiles and handshakes. He sat in front of the press and, you know, I like what you’re wearing. And, oh, did I say you were a dictator? All that just funny stuff. They started talking about the potential for Ukraine to pay for what they have received to the tune of tens and tens of billions, hundreds of billions cumulative. what they have received from America, you, the taxpayer, from your kids who, again, this is all deficit spending, so they’re being taxed as well for the bullets, the rifles, whatever aid, and to their credit in Ukraine, they’ve done a great job of being a buzzsaw, making sure that Vladimir Putin, you know, he exposed his military for the weak operation and competent operation that the Russian military is. It’s a paper bearer. And the killing has to stop, though. That’s the perspective from President Trump. And just moments ago, like an hour and a half into the meeting, in fact, you got all the cables out through the now. They’re looking at the door at the White House. Everything descended into a back and forth, back and forth. Volodymyr Zelensky was pretty much calling the shot, saying how it needed to be as far as participation. Donald Trump said, you’re in no position to negotiate. You’re in no position to be making demands. And J.D. Vance in there, it was like a three-way heated exchange. We’re done for today. There is no deal. In fact, let me look at the quote here that I just took a look at. President Donald Trump saying that Volodymyr Zelensky can come back when he is ready for peace. The words from President Trump. Volodymyr Zelensky is not ready for peace on his statement. Here it is, the statement from social media. The president said we had a meaningful meeting at the White House. Much was learned. I have determined that President Volodymyr Zelensky is not ready for peace if America is involved because he feels our involvement gives him a big advantage in negotiations. I don’t want advantage. President Trump says, I want peace. I think Volodymyr Zelensky wants to keep fighting. And he thinks he’s probably going to get the weapons necessary from Europe. I don’t know. This dude is not on the same frequency as President Trump. President Trump wants to stop the killing, wants to stop the war. And I don’t think the Europeans have it in them. to provide the billions, if not trillions of dollars necessary for a protracted engagement with Russia over the next decade. That’s what Volodymyr Zelensky wants. He wants to be the leader and just send a bunch of chum to the front lines to be ripped apart by Russian soldiers. Probably North Korean soldiers are probably going to take over for the Russian soldiers in the near future. I don’t think Volodymyr Zelensky wants to stop fighting. And I don’t think the Europeans have the money. I don’t think the Europeans have the stomach to continue to provide the weapons. That’s just me. That’s just my opinion. And if that’s the case, this might have been the best chance for Volodymyr Zelensky to save his nation. Because the one who can wait it out and outspend and put more people, more chum on the line, that would be the heartless Vladimir Putin. We might have witnessed, if Volodymyr Zelensky doesn’t come back and say, I want peace too, stop it already. man, this might be, that might be it for Ukraine. Just watch him. This might be the inflection point. This might be the point we look back and say, when he walked out of the White House with a chance to provide his natural resources as payback for American support, and by extension, I know nobody’s going to say it, because there would be a business partner. We want our business partner to survive because we want to collect on our business. Yeah, I don’t see Europe being courageous enough. and generous enough to give Ukraine what they need. I think Ukraine, you might as well call Ukraine an extension of Russia by now. We’ve got about 19 minutes to the hour. You’re listening to The Dana Show, reporting to you from South Texas KURV Studios. I’m Sergio Sanchez. I’m going to share with you a conversation I had with a dear friend of mine through the years from Priests for Life. Father Frank Pavone had a conversation with him because, as you hear incessantly in the news, the Pope is sick. Pray for the Pope. The Pope has pneumonia. He’s in the hospital. He’s doing better. All these reports on the Pope. Okay, great. He’s a human being. I hope he gets better. Great. And I know this really means something for many of my Catholic family, my Catholic brethren. It means something deep to me. But I know that for those of y’all who appreciate liberty and appreciate sound doctrine based on biblical truths and principles, What the Pope needs more than just healing and strength physically is something else, is wisdom. Here’s my conversation with Fr. Frank Pavone. He got from Priests for Life, Fr. Frank Pavone. Precious brother, good to talk to you again. Thank you so much.
SPEAKER 09 :
Nice to be with you. How are you doing?
SPEAKER 05 :
Good, my friend. I appreciate you tuning in. As I was opening up the program, I was, yes… acknowledging friends and family online and all their posts and pray for Pope Francis. He’s real sick. He’s got pneumonia. And I say, yes, absolutely. You pray for you pray for him. But as I was saying, an equal measure as we pray for his healing, an equal measure as we pray for strength, physical strength. And we know that it is a lot. He needs a lot of healing and a lot of physical strength. Fr. Frank Pavone, in your work in Priests for Life, in defending the unborn, in working at a branch of our Roman Catholic faith that has been uncompromising when it comes to the Word of God, uncompromising in standing for His eternal truths, we know, and you and I have talked about this, how Pope Francis, well… His advocacy for Marxist climate change-fueled government controls and blurring the lines between different faiths and, oh, yes, and there’s multiple, all that stuff. No, that does not adhere. That does not sound doctrine. That does not adhere to Scripture. So I pray for wisdom that God move the scales off his eyes. Anyway, I just want to get your comments on it.
SPEAKER 09 :
No, absolutely. Like you said, we pray for the Pope. And, you know, the role of the Pope is to serve the church and to serve the word of God. So as we pray for the Pope, we pray for the whole church. And the church has been wounded, frankly, Sergio. This has been a disaster. a papacy of confusion. And when we say that, you know, we’re talking about the fruits. Jesus said, by their fruits you will know them. We’re not judging his heart. Nobody can judge the inner soul. We’re not interested in doing that. Pope Francis might have the best of motives. But like you said, you could point to specific positions. Climate change is a myth. It’s a myth. It’s a myth that’s been imposed on us to do harm to society, to do harm to America. And, you know, he, a apparently uncritically, just advances this myth. And like you said, to me, even more serious, he’s raised doubt in the minds of some people. Of course, we who know the word of God, I mean, we all know that Jesus is the only way to the Father. He’s the only name given to humanity by which we are to be saved. I mean, scripture is so clear. And yet some of the Pope’s comments of late have cast that into doubt in the minds of some people. And like you said, this idea that all religions are equivalent. All people are equal in their dignity. That doesn’t mean all religions are equal. There’s only one that leads to the Father, and that’s Jesus Christ. So, you know, we pray for the healing of the church. We pray for the healing of the confusion. We pray for pastors and men and women of God and all of us as believers to rise up and give uncompromising, clear witness to the word of God and the gospel of Christ.
SPEAKER 05 :
from Priest for Life, my brother, my friend, Father Frank Pavone, considering the Pope’s condition, there might be a change in leadership in Rome. So what needs to happen in order to bring leadership, bring the church, bring it back, the spokesperson, bring them back to doctrines, bring them back to the Word? Are there enough cardinals up there?
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, there are cardinals that are very, very good. You know, the fact that Pope Francis has appointed so many of these men does not mean they agree with him. And it doesn’t mean that they don’t see what we see, that there’s need for a course correction in the church. So we don’t know who the next pope would be when that time comes. But I do believe really firmly that there will be a course correction and that there will be clarification of a lot of these issues.
SPEAKER 05 :
these doubts that have arisen do they realize at the very top in rome do they realize the confusion that has been created the advocacy for marxist ideas do they realize at the very very top what is taking place where they will yeah right i you know as you know i i worked for a while at the vatican it’s been some time now was back under john paul ii but
SPEAKER 09 :
Nevertheless, I know a lot of the people over there in some of these high-placed offices. And yes, there are some very, very, very good people there. A lot of them are afraid to speak out while Francis is in charge. But it’s just like it’s a parallel to what’s going on in our civil government, right? We’ve got people that there’s a deep state, right? There’s also a deep church. And sometimes you’ve got people in these positions that are very, very good. They’re maybe afraid of being persecuted or weaponized. Church government weaponized against them, just like American government has been weaponized. But here’s I think here’s our hope that just like the American people in this last election have decisively rejected weaponization, wokeness and just the abuse of government. Those same people that went into the voting booths are also sitting in the pews in the churches. Now, change within the church comes about in a different way than it does in civil government. It’s not like we elect people. We don’t elect our pastors, our bishops, or our pope. But that doesn’t mean the people can’t speak up. And that’s the road to the answer to your question is that the people who are sitting in the pews and they know full well when they see something that departs from the faith or when they’re hearing the true gospel. They know. They need to speak up. And one of the ways they need to speak up, frankly, is with their money. You know, if a diocese, if a bishop in a diocese is promoting wokeness, stop giving there. It doesn’t mean you stop giving to the church. There are many different ministries within the church. There are many different efforts that are promoting solid truth. Support those ministries. The church is very diverse. It’s full of beautiful ministries that the Spirit has risen up. And I think people need to be more discriminating, more discerning. as to how they spend their money in support of church ministries.
SPEAKER 05 :
Yeah, that’s one way to make a choice. But as I was reflecting in commentary just a few days ago, and how this major shift and then change, this rebirth, renewal that’s taking place, for example, on the political side. All the fans of Donald Trump and everybody is waving mega flags. He can’t do it alone. This is a call for uncompromising believers. This is a call for folks who believe in liberty as an example. On the political side, you need to get in there. You need to get to the school district. You need to run for school district. You need to follow the school. You need to figure out what’s going on. You need to run for office. Donald Trump can’t do it alone. The same thing when it comes to our faith, what we believe, our values. It all starts at our home. The foundational form of government, the building block is the family. One man, one woman. Not one man, multiple women, and it’s on the side and all that. No, you’ve got to take care of your family. Take care of your marriage. You’ve got to get back in there, have a Christ-centered marriage, and fight for your family. And by extension, you’ll be fighting for your local community and for your country. And our values, our country, will reflect that in the future if we’re successful. Hey, anyway, I can put in your nomination for pope in the future, Father Frank.
SPEAKER 09 :
You know, in my pro-life work, I intersect with a lot of top religious leaders in the evangelical world. Some of them have had for months now, they’ve had a campaign, Pavone for Pope, so… I appreciate that encouragement.
SPEAKER 05 :
Let me see if I can find an acronym. Make the papacy great again. Something like that. We’ll figure out something. Father Frank, a big hug to you, brother. Soldier Ron, thank you for all the work so far. And I know that your heart and passion is to protect the unborn and, of course, be a true representative and disciple of Christ Jesus. We’ll speak with you soon, brother. You take care.
SPEAKER 09 :
Appreciate it. Thank you so much.

How do we fix the wounds dividing America? Pastor Alan Jackson has the answer.
SPEAKER 01 :
Well, I think the reason we’ve been silent for so long, while our country’s been pilfered and pulled apart, is all of our groups have gotten little pieces of the pie. And we’re afraid we’re going to have to forfeit our little special side deal, our side hustles. And so we just don’t say anything. But we would all be stronger if we’d come back to the truth.

It’s his life mission to make bad decisions. It’s time for Florida Man.
SPEAKER 05 :
The guy in Orlando, man, if he just waited a little bit, maybe signed up with the federal government, maybe he can do this for a living and be paid for it instead of winding up in jail. Florida man posing as an immigration officer at an Orlando apartment complex. He was checking documents, checking the residency if they weren’t in the country illegally. Florida man arrested Monday pretending to be a Homeland Security officer. I’m trying to make sure that illegals weren’t at the apartment complex. 47-year-old Steve Donovan, his name, was booked into county jail. A guy working at the apartment complex is saying that Mr. Donovan is riding a bicycle. That was the first tip, right? Normally, I don’t see immigration ICE officials riding around in bicycles. You can just hear the little bell, ring, ring, ring, ring, little bell. And he’s… He took the individual to an apartment and flashed a gun, said, look at mine, Jack, I got a gun in here. And then the guy who worked at the apartment complex called police, and police showed up, and this guy showed some Department of Agriculture identification, something like that. Anyway, he’s going to cool his heels, and if he wanted to be part of the solution, man, they’re hiring big time. over at Immigration Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol and DHS. He probably could have had a job, but I suspect if he did something like this, he might not have a very clean record. They’re all done up in Washington, D.C. for now at the White House. That conversation between Volodymyr Zelensky and President Trump just fell apart. Update to that coming up in mere moments. Stay with us. This is The Dana Show. I’m Sergio Sanchez.
SPEAKER 11 :

SPEAKER 03 :
That’s very kind, Mr. President.
SPEAKER 07 :
It sounds as though one of you completely trusts President Putin and one of you doesn’t trust him an inch. Have I got that right?
SPEAKER 03 :
And why do you trust him? Look, you know, it’s trust and verify, let’s call it that. And I think we both can be that way. You have to verify because you never know what’s going to happen. I know a lot of people that you would say no chance that they would ever deceive you. And they’re the worst people in the world. I know others that you would guarantee they would deceive you. And you know what? They’re 100% honorable, so you never know what you’re getting. No, I have confidence that if we make a deal, it’s going to hold.
SPEAKER 05 :
That’s President Donald Trump yesterday commenting on Vladimir Putin making the deal. You get Russia to the table, make a deal. Yeah, it’s going to hold. He said yesterday. Today it was a little different, and I’ll share the audio here in just a second. We had Volodymyr Zelensky in town from Ukraine speaking with the president. A short conversation, and Zelensky’s at the doorman. Producer Steve said that Zelensky’s on his way to Fox News to interview with Brett Baier. I’m Sergio Sanchez. You are listening to The Dana Show. from her Southern Command in Deep South Texas, the Dana Show Southern Command here in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. Thank you for being with us today. So President Trump hosted Volodymyr Zelensky. It was nice. Handshakes. Okay, come on in. Have a seat. Oh, say hi to Marco Rubio. There’s a Secretary of State. J.D. Vance was there as well. And they started okay, and then at some point it all descended into this meltdown. Go ahead, Steve-O.
SPEAKER 04 :
Let’s start from the beginning. Sure. First of all, during the war, everybody has problems. Even you. But you have nice ocean and don’t feel now. But you will feel it in the future.
SPEAKER 03 :
God bless. You don’t know that.
SPEAKER 04 :
God bless. You don’t know that.
SPEAKER 03 :
God bless. You will not have a war. Don’t tell us what we’re going to feel. We’re trying to solve a problem. Don’t tell us what we’re going to feel. I’m not telling you. Because you’re in no position to dictate that. That’s exactly what I’m saying. You’re in no position to dictate what we’re going to feel. You will feel influenced. I’m telling you, you will feel influenced. From the very beginning of the war. From the very beginning of the war, Mr. President, I was arrested. With us, you start having cards. Right now, you’re playing cards. You’re playing cards. You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people. You’re gambling with World War III. You’re gambling with World War III. And what you’re doing is very disrespectful to the country, this country, that’s backed you far more than a lot of people said they should have.
SPEAKER 07 :
Have you said thank you once? No, in this entire meeting, have you said thank you? You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October. Offer some words of appreciation for the United States of America and the president who’s trying to save your country.
SPEAKER 05 :
J.D. Vance, oh man, I did not hear that one earlier. That’s a great point. And I was thinking the same thing. Why not show up and say, hey, gang, thank you, thank you for the billions upon billions of dollars, which I don’t know, by the way, where they are right now. I’m kind of misplaced. We can’t do an audit on any of that. But, hey, thank you for the billions, for the bullets. Thank you for whatever you provided so far because we’ve been able to stop. We, Ukraine, have been able to stop Vladimir Putin to a certain point. And, yeah, unfortunately, a bunch of dead people on his side, a bunch of dead people on our side. President Donald Trump wants to stop all this, just stop the war, gosh darn it. Volodymyr Zelensky apparently does not want peace, according to Donald Trump. In fact, that’s precisely what President Donald Trump said. Volodymyr Zelensky does not want peace. He went to social media. Volodymyr Zelensky does not want peace, and he’s welcome to come back when he wants peace. Donald Trump just wants to stop the killing. And like I told you last hour, man, I just don’t see the Europeans standing up. Yeah, maybe temporarily for a while. You talk about war fatigue. And they want to spend their own money. The Frenchies want to spend their own money on wine and baguettes. And, you know, you got sausages in Poland and beer in Germany. They got their own thing. They’re hyper-extended beyond what they budget, by the way, right? You think our national debt is bad in this country? $34 trillion, $36 trillion in county. Every single year running up another trillion dollars or so. Oh, the Frenchies, the Greeks… The Germans, all of them are well-extended, above what they’re budgeting for. They’re all in deficit spending as well. So at some point, I’m sure political winds of change will hit them and voters say, hey, we can’t survive this. We can’t be providing. Volodymyr Zelensky, all this. He had a chance to end the war, enter an agreement with President Trump and the Americans. First of all, say, hey, thanks for the billions. By the way, I’ve got all these God-given natural resources, kind of like the Russians have all that oil, and they’re buying all the bullets and the rifles and all that to fight us and try to kill us. Yeah, we’ve got some natural resources. Well, we’d like to use some of that to say thank you. They go, here’s for the billions, and let’s buy some more based on what we have. No, none of that. None of that happened. Volodymyr Zelensky, he just left the White House just moments back, and producer Stevie said he’s probably headed over to Fox News to interview and talk more about this. But he’s welcome back. President Trump says he is welcome back. As soon as he wants peace, he can come back and talk about ending the war. That’s the objective. Other news for the day, we got Mexico facing tariffs. You know, about a month ago, President Donald Trump was threatening tariffs on Mexico, which is really, really close to us. I can almost see Mexico from my back wall window here. We’re that close to the Mexican border here in Mission, McAllen, Texas, Brownsville, Texas, where SpaceX is at. In fact, SpaceX is on one side. It’s on the U.S. side and right across the water, right across the river. There it is in Mexico. Mexico was facing a 25% tariff on all the stuff coming in from, you know, it’s supposed to be free trade, right? So-called free trade, which needs to be renegotiated between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. This is the year that it’s going to be renegotiated. So you got stuff coming up, either components for vehicles or consumer goods, vehicles that are already manufactured, consumer goods already manufactured. Boom, 25% tariff. Monday is the date. It was threatened. The president… You know, they reached with cloudy a shine bomb in Mexico City at the last minute. A pause for the terrorists about a month ago. You got 30 days to help us in the fight against fentanyl trafficking, help us in the fight against the cartels, human smuggling, all that. Mexico has done some work. The announcement from Mexico City, and they put, you know, this is just inside baseball games. Just talking with enough people knowing these things, over 30 years of broadcasting here on the border in Mexico, the military that Mexico put on the border, it’s just not very good. It’s not. It’s not the top military. They barely have good law enforcement that protects the presidency in Mexico City, and that is called La Marina, the Marines. Individuals that are special forces. They’re the top military in Mexico. Those are the ones that are working with our top military and advisors. The special forces to try to find all the labs, putting drones deep into Mexico. They’re flying drones. Our government is flying drones deep into Mexico, finding where the drug labs are at and where the hornets’ nests or where the cartels are at. That cooperation continues. Last night, Shane. But in the news today, President Trump earlier today, as we’re approaching the deadline of that 30-day reprieve on the 25% tariff, which I don’t know if it’s still 25%, but either way, the tariffs are coming on Monday, on so-called free trade with Mexico and Canada, specifically Mexico right now, despite the fact that 10,000, supposedly, 10,000 Mexican soldiers were brought to the border. They arrested some individuals and threw them over to the U.S. about three weeks ago. There have been numerous firefights and engagements just south of the border, but that military that is helping south of the border, if it is helping with something, I can tell you that the numbers that we see on the southwest border right now were, in the Biden administration, where it was an open border, 11,000 some odd people would cross on a daily basis, 10,000, 11,000 on a daily basis. Right now it’s a trickle. It’s like 100 people, 150 people. That number is super low in part, in part. Because just south of us, south of the Rio Grande, the natural God-given border that we have with Mexico, the Mexican military is there. Their presence is, to some degree, dissuading, discouraging some individuals from going into the brush and coming across. So their mere presence, that’s really the only contribution. We have not heard or seen any evidence that on the Mexican side they’re actually arresting cartel members, They’re arresting immigrants that are illegal immigrants, potential immigrants. They become illegal immigrants once they hit the river and start going this way. Or they’re carrying like bags or satchels, backpacks full of drugs. We’ve heard none of that from the Mexican military. Just their mere presence, individuals who want to cross, dissuading them and they’re moving somewhere else. Individuals who are desperate to cross the river. And I’ll share a little bit of this coming up in this hour of the Dana Show. Victor Avila is a former ICE agent. I’m going to share a conversation with him. Before the Trump administration, individuals who would come to this border near us and try to cross, they would have to pay the cartels about $8,000. $6,000, $8,000, depending on where they came from, to cross the border, guaranteed to cross the border. And back under Biden, the border patrol was a welcome wagon. They would process these folks, get name and information, put them in line at immigration court to game, abuse the asylum courts, the immigration courts. That was $8,000. Right now, the going price is $16,000 north of that. $16,000 and change. $16,000 per person right now. to get across the border and cross over. This is from Border Patrol. This is from ICE people. This is from people that know the situation on the ground right here, just south of here. I’m on blessed soil. I’m in USA, north of the river, the land of 911. You call 911, you got cops, sheriffs, DPS, people you can trust around here. South of the border, they don’t have that. They have, yes, 10,000 soldiers, and maybe that’s what’s helping in part dissuade some individuals from coming or so we got we got a trickle right now at the board last-minute hail mary from mexico city that’s the way i see it this one so yesterday there was a report that cartel members now they threw some names out there that the mexicans are sending twenty nine cartel figures to the U.S. They’re in Mexican jails right now. Be prosecuted and thrown into the juzgal around here, hopefully. I’m wondering if maybe they can squeeze a bit more information and ask them, just like they did with El Chapo, the Mexican politicians that were on the take. I would like to hear something like that. Antonio Cervantes, he’s with the Jalisco New Generation. They were mentioning some of the guy named Jose El Guarito, the white guy, El Guarito Canobio. He’s a high-ranking fentanyl guy from the Sinaloa cartel. But there’s one name, if you’ve been paying attention to news, All these decades. You know, back in the 1980s, mid-80s. In fact, this was one of those tragedies that redoubled the efforts by then Reagan administration to fight back against drugs, put more fuel into the DARE program, try to educate our kids. You might remember the name Rafael Caro Quintero. This SOB was responsible for torturing, mercilessly, brutally, sadistically torturing and murdering DEA agents. Enrique Kiki Camarena. They’ve made some movies about this. In fact, his story was the subject was the topic in one of those cartel series that was on one of those channels, I think on Netflix or something like that, where they’re talking about the cartels. Yeah, Enrique Kiki Camarena, the DEA agent who was brutally tortured and killed back in the mid-1980s, the SOB responsible, Rafael Caro Quintero, is… Either he is in U.S. custody or he’s headed this way because the Mexicans have coughed him up and a bunch of Zeta cartel members, 29 in total, they’re on their way. Despite this move in the military and what they’ve done on the southern border, it’s not enough. From what I see right now, maybe things will change before the end of the day today or maybe it will change on Monday. But Mexico, according to President Donald Trump, from what I see and I’m reading and nobody’s talking about this right now, Mexico’s not doing enough. He’s not happy yet. with Mexico so that the so-called free trade on Monday will cease to be free trade with Mexico. There will be tariffs of stuff coming north into the U.S. I’m Sergio Sanchez. You’re listening to The Dana Show. We’re broadcasting from her Southern Command office, KURV Studios in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas.

SPEAKER 05 :
An American company picking back up the research for Malaysia Airline Flight 370 more than a decade after it disappeared. 239 lives lost when they went off radar. March of 2014, Malaysian government has given approval to a Texas-based company to continue the search in an area that was not searched very well, they say. Another commercial lunar lander on its way to the moon, Athena, built by Intuitive Machines, launched aboard a SpaceX Falcon rocket Wednesday evening from Cape Kennedy. It’s the company’s second lunar lander. Odysseus touched down near the moon’s South Pole region about a year ago. Athena is set to land March 6th. And there’s another one. Blue Ghost lander from Firefly Aerospace is scheduled to touch down early Sunday. One of these things is showing images from the moon back at Earth. Just beautiful stuff that you can see online. Alex Ovechkin. I hope I said that right, gang. I just watched NHL, like, from a distance. I like cocking. Don’t get me wrong, but I’m including this because there’s big news. Alex Ovechkin is catching up to the great one, Wayne Gretzky. And Gretzky’s all-time record, 894 goals. So Ovechkin, with the Washington Capitals, superstar, is only 12 goals behind trying to catch up to Wayne Gretzky. So I guess the title, the great one, will now be Ovechkin. If he’s supposed to, when he passes, Wayne Gretzky, right? It should happen, let me see here, the writer said it should happen early April. At this pace, it should happen early April. And a question for my friend, Producer Steve. Where will Uranus be tonight? It’s actually going to be between Saturn and Neptune. Yeah, Uranus, along with Jupiter and Venus and Mercury and Mars.

…them is not the best. Mr. President, do you still think that Mr. Zelensky is a dictator? Um, did I say that? I can’t believe I said that. Next question. Is there a…
SPEAKER 05 :
That was yesterday. I think some foofy English accent guy said, Mr. President, you believe Zelensky’s still a dictator? I don’t believe I said that. I’m sure the president yesterday tried to act nice because he knew that Zelensky was going to be at the White House today. And he came. And unfortunately, everything just unraveled. And Zelensky went in and he went out still. No deal, nothing. President Trump, he just wants to end the war. And when Zelensky’s ready… He said that Zelensky is welcome back. So that’s the status report right now as we close this week. I’m Sergio Sanchez, and you’re listening to The Dana Show, broadcasting from her southern command in deep south Texas, right here on the border. Well, the Fed and whatever they can, the money managers doing whatever they can to try to slow down economic activity. Inflation is at a pretty good point right now, 2.2% inflation, latest report from D.C. today. Spending, though, confidence on that down also two clicks, over two clicks. And home sales, ooh-wee, man, they’re in a nosedive right now. Yes, home prices like a supply. Mortgage rates, straining affordability, that is the comment from people that are in the home business. Home sales are down to the lowest level on record. Pending home sales dipped 4.6% for the month of January. Haven’t seen at this hour as we’re closing up, getting ready to close up the Dana show. And don’t you leave now. Don’t you leave. We’re going to be talking about cartels throwing a whole bunch of people this way trying to help Mexico City avoid some tariffs on Monday. On this day, President Trump is expected at some point, I haven’t seen it on the cables yet, I haven’t seen him take pen to paper, expected to sign an executive order that would make English the official language of our country. My goodness, why did it take so long? We’re north of 250 years now, almost 250 years of history. English was what was spoken by people running from the crown, from England only. It is the language of business. It’s the language that you can eventually look at the chicken scratch on your prescription. Do they still do that? You know, doctors have the worst writing. It’s the language of medicine. It’s the language of journals, academia, military communications. Oh, I have to be in English. Laws, patents. Man, even air traffic control. You think about it, right? Air traffic control. Is that why some of these planes are falling out of the sky these days, it seems? Are they starting to speak some other language they don’t understand each other? That’s the universal language is English. So, yeah, it’s about darn time that English was declared as the official language of our country. I don’t know what it is with all these literally centuries now. this concern, apprehension to declare English as the language. It’s in everything that we do. My goodness. I bet you Congress would not be courageous enough to make that declaration or to codify that. We got too many weenies, spinal, noodle spine lawmakers up in D.C. The measles bloom in West Texas. We had a comment from our health chief, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. There was a press conference yesterday, and one bit of audio that drew, that got my attention, was he made mention of the Mennonite community. in West Texas. And I’m familiar with, you know, Texas is huge. I have family in West Texas. And I get to see these nice people, these Mennonites. If you don’t know what that is, it’s a Christian community. I sometimes, and I don’t know if I’m wrong in doing this, but I compare them to the Amish up northeast. You guys have Amish up northeast in the nation’s midsection as well. Mennonites are a Christian community. They stick to themselves. They work with themselves. They work in groups. They make money. I guess they share the money. I don’t know. They just seem to be very tight-knit and very reclusive and separate from the rest of the world. And there’s a 20% vaccination rate. among children in the Mennonite community in West Texas. That’s in part why you see a bloom of measles right now. And Robert F. Kennedy Jr. saying, there’s no reason for alarm. We got measles like in seven other states, cases that are being reported. Man, I recall some years back, and it’s maybe 15, 20 years ago, I remember a report on parents, moms, taking their babies and having like measles parties. You bring one kid in with the measles, the babies, and everybody else exposed to the measles, so they get natural immunity. You guys recall that? I do. Do a quick search on that. This is the Dana Show, broadcasting from South Texas. I’m Sergio Sanchez. Mexico throwing a whole bunch of cartel members and kingpins this way. Last minute, the way I see it, it’s a Hail Mary by Mexico City. They’re trying to prevent Mexico City. Claudia Scheinbaum is trying to prevent… the tariffs and taxes on mexican goods headed north to the u.s next week it’s not working but here’s my conversation with retired immigration customs enforcement agent victor avila retired immigration customs enforcement ice agent victor avila joining me he and his colleague jaime zapata from here from brownsville texas Many years ago, they were ambushed while in Mexico helping out Mexican authorities, fight drug running, fight human smuggling. The cartels got them. They took Jaime Zapata from them. Victor was injured as well. He recovered. And he chronicles this in his book, Agent Under Fire. I want to go straight to how the U.S. is helping right now. Again, back then, we saw how the U.S. was helping Mexico and what happened. At present, under the Trump administration, drones, maybe some training. What’s going on right now trying to help Mexican authorities, the more trusted authorities, which would be the special forces in Mexico, La Marina, they call them, right? So what are we doing in order to help fight the cartels in Mexico?
SPEAKER 08 :
Thanks for having me on, Sergio. Yes, there’s unprecedented coordination now between DOD, Department of Defense, and Department of Homeland Security. Several things. One, the military, aside from the National Guard, I’m talking the Marines, are on our border. We are also flying on Mexican airspace on the border with the permission of Mexico, by the way. This is not covert. gathering intelligence and observing their cartels. And obviously you heard about the drones. That was initially a covert operation, but now it’s been out. But we’re still going to continue to fly the drones in the interior of Mexico to locate all these 100 or so super labs that the cartels have, methamphetamine and fentanyl. Now, you mentioned the special forces. We send in our special forces to train their special forces. So what I think is happening here, Sergio, is President Trump and the administration is setting the foundation for a possible type of enforcement It doesn’t necessarily mean that we’re going to go in there and invade Mexico. And I want to make that clear. What it does do, and it definitely puts it on the table, is the preparedness. You have to be ready. You have to have all the intel ready if and when that day comes. Now, I know you want to talk about what’s going on, what happened with Mexico yesterday, because this is the response from the other side, from Mexico. And listen, President Trump gave Mexico 30 days to do something. I mean, we know and I’ve been on a show many times telling you how much Mexico has failed at securing their border and allowing their country to be used to not only allow millions of illegal aliens into ours, but the cartels and terrorism and many other things. And so now For them to avoid the tariffs, there is no coincidence here. The Mexican delegates were at the White House. They have a discussion. And all of a sudden, 28, 29 hardcore criminals, including those that killed Agent Zapata and injured me, members of Los Zetas, are out. were extradited to the united states this is not a coincidence this is mexico i think trying to do what they can at this point to avoid any terrorists or other types of activity from the u.s now it doesn’t mean that um that’s enough it’s not even close to being enough these people were already in custody believe me i’m glad that these guys are in the hands of the u.s it’s about time especially Rafael Caro Quintero, who is accused of the murder of Enrique Camarena in 1985, which, by the way, was the first agent killed in Mexico. Agent Zapata was the second one. And man, that justice needs to come to the family. It was way overdue.
SPEAKER 05 :
The murder and brutal torture in the mid-’80s of Enrique Kiki Camarena, the DEA agent. This Rafael Caro Quintero, this guy’s a sadistic SOB. He’s a monster. And frankly, I found that to be quite the… The prize and the batch they’re sending this way. It’s still up in the air, Victor. I don’t know if Mexico can avoid the tariffs. We’re still on schedule to Monday, the last I heard from the White House. In fact, the president announced Canada and Mexico. Yeah, tariffs Monday, March 4th. It’s still coming. So I know it seems to me that Mexico is desperate to try to do something. And the fight against fentanyl and the cartels to get Washington’s attention in order to avoid those painful economic sanctions, those tariffs. Victor Avila, retired Immigration Customs Enforcement agent, joining me. And again, I want to thank you for making time to join me on the program and also on the Dana Show, brother. Thank you so much. Okay, so rules of engagement. Now, there are a lot of threats coming from the cartels that they’re going to put some bombs on drones and hit our people, hit our border patrol. And, man, they make a mistake like that under this administration. Yeah, I think what Mexico wants to avoid is from U.S. forces going into New Mexico. But I don’t see how we can avoid something like that if indeed the cartels get to that point of desperation and they actually attack and fire on our people. Because there was a recent incident where they fired on Border Patrol and our people fired back. And they fire back all the time, anytime they’re fired upon. But under rules of engagement, under this administration, I think, I don’t know, brother, I think we might wind up, some of our people might wind up in Mexico chasing some of these SOBs.
SPEAKER 08 :
And that’s the question. Is the United States going to become offensive instead of defensive when it comes to the cartels? Now, they killed a rancher just the other day on the other side of Texas in Matamoros with an IED. An IED. This is not Iraq. This is not Afghanistan. These are terrorist organizations in Mexico. And guess what? In the U.S. And You pose a very good question because I don’t know which one’s going to come first. I don’t know if it’s not like we need another excuse not to attack them. They’ve killed hundreds of thousands of Americans with fentanyl poisonous counterfeit pills. Many made thousands of deaths in Mexico and the U.S. linked to the cartels. Is that enough for us to then act? I think so. But are we going to wait for that moment that that that smoking gun, if you will, if there ever would be one that the cartel would be stupid enough, I guess, to then harm people? one of our border agents or a police officer in the interior of our country. Remember, that’s that’s where I’m really concerned. I’m concerned, obviously, for the border agents on the line. But police officers, civilians, we know how ruthless the cartels are. I could tell you firsthand these guys are sadistic, evil. They have absolutely no regard for human life. They will skin you alive. They will tear your heart out of your chest. They are medieval. I mean, this is really what people need to understand that besides the level of violence that they bring, they’re highly sophisticated. They have a lot of intelligence. They have a lot of money. They’re well-organized. And you can’t just take them for granted either. I know they’re no match for our military, but you just can’t ignore the threat that they actually are. And that’s what we have to be careful about.
SPEAKER 05 :
Retired Immigration Customs Enforcement ICE agent Victor Avila, author of Agent Under Fire. My guest as these cartels have been designated terrorist organizations, Victor. And when that happens, usually bank accounts and assets and land and things like that, they’re seized by the government. Should I be expecting to hear headlines related to that work? Because I was told like 30 years ago when I started in this business talk radio and talking with law enforcement here on the border and federal folks, they would say, Serge, we know. They live in First World. They have nice homes on this side of the border. They live in San Antonio, Houston, down here as well. They’ve got nice homes in the case of private schools. It’s the lieutenants and it’s the underlings that are doing their bidding in Mexico. So if you know, if the government knows where they are, if DEA and FBI and all these people, they know where they are. They know which homes to seize, which businesses are laundering the money, the assets that need to be seized. That is going to happen under this administration, or are they going to wait for the hair trigger to finally be engaged, all that violence, and then they’ll go after them as true terrorists that they are.
SPEAKER 08 :
No, they’re going to go after the assets first, and you will start hearing about that. As a matter of fact, because of the designation, that’s really truly what it does is to go after their assets, bank accounts, monies, boats, houses, whatever they accrued illicitly with their funds. Money laundering, right? We all know that that’s what they operate for. Why are they operating the way they do? Why do they have the equipment and military great weapons? Because they’ve always had the money, billions of dollars. So you have to hit them where it hurts them with that. But in the interior, anyone that now, here’s a lot of things that people are asking, are not kind of putting together. Yeah, you have to think of them just like ISIS. So whenever you think of ISIS, I want you to think of the same as the Sinaloa cartel and cartel is for new generation and the rest of the list that if you associate with them, if you buy a drug from them, if you give them money for whatever reason, whether you’re a gang member here or whether whatever, you are now financing a terrorist organization and we get to go pick you up. Guess what? The illegal aliens that are paying the fee to get smuggled over the $8,000, they’re giving it now to a terrorist organization. Guess what? We get to go pick you up too. This is something they have to think about. You are being complicit in allowing the cartels to continue to function. That is what this designation does overall. But the bigger picture here, Sergio, is not just the military intervention and all that. It’s the impact, the ripple effect that it’s going to have for Mexico, Central America. Guess who? China, Venezuela, Cuba. That’s where you’re going to see. This is where this is going.

Well, Lord willing, Dana should be back with us on Monday. I’m Sergio Sanchez. This is The Dana Show. Look for her online, the podcast, the YouTubes. She’s all over the place. You want to say hi on Twitter for me, it’s at SergioTalk. Lindsey Graham left the White House just moments ago. He said something to the press that he’s not sure that we can do business with Zelensky again. I hope he has a come-to-Jesus moment and realizes that if he wants the war to stop, and now there’s a question. I don’t know if he does want the war to stop. Maybe he’s proving Donald Trump correct. He’s just a dictator, and he doesn’t care. He’s not at the front lines losing his life. I don’t know, man. I hope the war comes to an end. The killing has to stop. Because if not, I mean, we’re all spectators here. I mean, Zelensky could lose Ukraine if he doesn’t take the chance to stop the killing and reinforce his country. A reminder that today is the day to shop, shop, shop. If you want to push back against DEI, today is the day to shop, shop, shop. Yeah, I know there’s another shyster out there calling for a boycott.
