Join us as we tackle a hectic lineup of today’s hot-button issues! We begin with a look at defense spending, questioning the endurance of fiscal conservatism in a climate driven by large-scale government initiatives. The episode critiques recent political stances and underscores the debate over the need to adhere to financial prudence amid expansive military investments. The discussion then shifts gears to social unrest at graduation ceremonies, evaluating the impact and motivations behind such demonstrations.

SPEAKER 07 :
Make a historic announcement about the Golden Dome Missile Defense Shield. That’s something we want. And Ronald Reagan wanted it many years ago, but they didn’t have the technology. But it’s something we’re going to have. We’re going to have it at the highest level. I want to thank Secretary Hegseth, who has been fantastic, and Secretary Rubio and Space Force Vice Chief of Space Operations, General Mike Gutlein. I also want to recognize Senators Dan Sullivan, Kevin Cramer, and Jim Banks, fantastic senators, great talents, great political talents and people that love our country. In the campaign, I promised the American people that I would build a cutting-edge missile defense shield to protect our homeland from the threat of foreign missile attack.
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, I mean, committing to what Reagan had started and saying that you’re going to finish it is, you know, that’s good. But I don’t want to spend another damn dime until I know what’s getting cut. I mean, we’re getting the cart ahead of the horse here, and I’m getting so incredibly infuriated by all of this because they may force a House vote today on that bill. I mean, I’m not denying that all of these things are good, right? Yeah, we should have defense, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I’m not going to sit here and wax poetic for clicks on this stuff. But the issue remains that, you know, we have a significant… spending problem and i don’t think that defense spending is a sacred cow uh i think that a lot of other things need to be cut in this before we start talking about these other issues we we need to make sure that we have the most streamlined financial capability as it pertains to our fighting force and you know we just haven’t been getting a whole heck of a lot of that welcome to the program, Dana Lash with you. We’re going to go over just some of the other, some of the changes. Everything is about, just so you know, everything is about the big, beautiful bill today. That’s all anybody’s talking about. Nobody’s talking about anything else. We’ll have some cultural issues, you know, some of that stuff. The racist WNBA, all of those good things we’re going to have for you. And all of the latest with this bill. I wanted to point something out because yesterday I had, we had on Chip Roy. Congressman Chip Roy. And he had a soundbite that was interesting because he had said that he was explaining Social Security and he was explaining the problems that house republicans are having where it concerns trying to remedy this and not tax social security and the issue also has to do something with the bird law or the bird rule all of that stuff uh there is a little bit of a i don’t know i i know what i know and i know what i don’t and there were house members i gotta tell you i was having a conversation with over the weekend with some House members, and there were House members that were actually disagreeing with themselves on how to approach protecting Social Security from being essentially doubly taxed. And they were even disagreeing with each other, a whole group, that they couldn’t even come to agreement on the best way to do it to avoid any kind of Democrat objection because you’re trying to skirt past some kind of weirdo technical parliamentarian rules. And honestly, I think a lot of it is just some technicalities. If it proves a hurdle in getting things to the president’s desk, then it’s significant. So he’s referring to that when he’s talking about, you know, the expense of it and getting it moved and et cetera, et cetera. And I think a lot of people didn’t give him a fair shot, honestly, when they were listening to that audio soundbite, if I’m being honest. Because some of the comments that I saw, it just seemed that they were not – they were – it seemed to me like they were trying to – A lot of people were mad at Chip Roy. And I don’t think that Chip Roy deserves the heat for that, quite honestly. I don’t think he does. I think a lot of other members of Congress do before he would. And I also think people are attacking him because he’s not in line with voting for the bill the way it is now because of all of that stuff that, you know, the aforementioned things that we just mentioned. You know, that’s what that means. So it’s just all confusing. Because when I have members of Congress that I’m talking to that don’t understand, that are disagreeing with each other about the rule, that makes it incredibly confusing. Like, oh, well, can we we can do this, but then we’re going to get hung up here. And it part of the I think the anger is the American people not realizing or not knowing because government’s too damn big. I mean, for crying out loud, when you have people in Congress that are arguing with each other over whether or not they can do it, it’s the bird rule is what it is. And by the way, that’s the CBO thing. And this specifically relates to reconciliation. And so if you have a provision that isn’t directly related to reconciliation. the specific purpose of reconciliation and changing revenue they’re arguing that it falls outside of the bird rule and then there’s another additional law that was passed some years ago where social security can’t be touched in that manner so there’s two things that are coming into play here and that’s i i still don’t agree with any of it i think you you made the rule then you unmake the rule right you make this stuff then you unmake it I’m not going to pretend to be happy about any of this. I’m not going to be browbeaten into agreeing with it either. Just the way it is. I mean, we’re either conservatives or we’re not. We either don’t like, you know, Bush-Obama type spending or we do. And that’s exactly what’s in this bill. I don’t want to hear another damn Republican, if they support this bill, ever again complain about Bush spending or Obama spending because you’re voting for it right now. You’re voting for it. You’re voting for the Green News scheme. You’re voting for all those subsidies, all your taxpayer dollars going to this stuff. That’s all it is. So there you go. There’s a few things that changed. We’ll talk about that here coming up. Also, the campus protests that have been happening. So who is it, Columbia graduating today? I don’t know if you’ve seen some of the video that have come about from some of this. I was watching some of this this morning. Columbia, I think it was Columbia, they have their graduation ceremony. And that’s the exact time that the pro-Hamas folks are, Out protesting like they booed the president at the graduation in Columbia. They’ve been dealing with this down at UT Dallas. Can I don’t know if you knew that they’ve they’ve had they had banned some people because they had interrupt. They were going to be interrupting commencement. And the president of Columbia was booed. They made a big, I mean, Claire Shipman, they had a lot of distractions and disruptions at their commencement ceremonies. Think about this, because Columbia is expensive. It’s not a cheap university. I don’t even want to look at the price tag for it. I’m scared to. Can you imagine? You know, you… You are graduating or your kids graduating or your grandkids graduating and they spend all of this time and all of this money and they go through all of this effort. And then. It’s at your graduation and people are booing and being so disruptive that maybe you can’t even walk or maybe you don’t even hear your name called to go and get your diploma, your degree. That is insane. I would be whooping some A-double snakes over that. Oh, I would be on Worldstar. I would be flying over some bleachers and I would be slinging some people around by the hairs on their head. Oh, hail, H-A-I-L, no. God, put a hand over my mouth if anything were to like that, were to like that were to happen at any of my kids’ graduations. Oh my gosh. What would you do, Cain? You’re at your… Dare we ask? You’re at your kid’s… Let me set the stage. You’re at your kid’s graduation. Your child’s getting ready to go get their diploma or their degree, whatever they’re doing, high school or college.
SPEAKER 18 :
Joyous occasion.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay. Joyous occasion. That’s right. Yeah. And some Hamas lover starts protesting about Hamas and free that one guy who was basically aiding and abetting a terrorist. Oh, yeah, blah, blah, blah. And you can’t even hear your kid’s name be called because… of their protests. How would you feel as a parent if you were robbed of that moment, if your child was robbed of that moment?
SPEAKER 18 :
First of all, it would make me angry at a time where it’s very joyous. Right. And I wouldn’t really want it. I don’t like it. So I’d probably reject that negative energy. But I would also find… By how? Just by ignoring it. But I don’t know. There has to be a way. And, you know, everyone’s empathetic to a degree.
SPEAKER 15 :
No, I’m not.
SPEAKER 18 :
There… There has to be a way, though, to where somehow sense gets into their brain. The protesters. Like at some point, right? You would think that you have enough faith in humanity that these protesters at some point would be like, you know what? I was misguided.
SPEAKER 23 :
Can you guys tell that Cain has still yet to be fully corrupted by this world? Do you hear that?
SPEAKER 16 :
It’s a fight.
SPEAKER 23 :
Do you hear that little shred of hope? He was like, I still hope that some sense would get into their brains.
SPEAKER 15 :
I’m trying.
SPEAKER 23 :
I wouldn’t even wait for the second syllable to come out of their mouths of interruption because I have no faith in humanity. I am a cynic of the highest degree. There’s no way. No way. Oh my gosh. I think I would send them a bill. I would figure out the cost of that moment ruined. And I think I would send them a bill.
SPEAKER 18 :
I’m sure there’s precedent for that somewhere.
SPEAKER 23 :
I mean, we sue for everything. No, I know. I don’t like lawfare until I do. But think about it. We sue for everything. You can go to McDonald’s and get a hot cup of coffee. And if I’m going to spill it on myself because I’m stupid. And then you sue McDonald’s because the coffee was hot and it burned you. Do you see what I’m saying? So why couldn’t we sue over something like this? Think about it. I don’t know what the calculus would be on this. But… You know, what would just saying like, what would that cost? Like, I’m trying to think.
SPEAKER 18 :
If you took a day off of work to attend, it’s clearly a day’s work. I mean, we can start right there. But yeah, it is. It’s disheartening. And I think that’s part of their goal is just the disruption. It’s almost like you don’t want to give them that satisfaction that they know they’re disrupting. Don’t validate that for them. That’s kind of where I’m at with it.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, well, I don’t know. It’s impossible to do most of the time. It’s hard to ignore. It would be impossible for me to ignore. I’d have to throw flip-flops or something. I think I’d probably bring flip-flops in a bag, just be ready for it, you know what I mean? Just to start beating people.
SPEAKER 18 :
That’s a business idea.
SPEAKER 23 :
You know what? That’s right. Like your bag of flip flops, your warfare flops. That’s exactly what that is. That’s actually a very good idea on that right now. We’re going to go ahead and get the, you know, I’m just saying, but yeah, if you can, if you think about that, like you paid all that and it’s just such a joyous moment. And what’s it hijacked for? It’s hijacked for a guy who violated the terms of his stay, like very clearly violated the terms of his stay through his own willful choices and ended up getting himself in trouble for because of his own willful choices. And now you have to suffer for it? No, no, no. We’re not doing that. So coming up, we’re also going to get into the media. I think the media is going to go… with the argument that, oh, I guess they just didn’t catch this with Joe Biden. And also the media is going to start apologizing. We should have done better. And related, do you want to know the terrifying degree to which Hunter Biden apparently was basically running the White House for a period? Oh, I didn’t stutter. No. Don’t you make fun of my stutter. I didn’t. I’m not being Joe Biden. I said what I said. It was him. Oh, now the Coke and the cubby, the cubby Coke makes all the sense in the world. I mean, you know, it’s Hunter Biden who doesn’t have a little cubby Coke in the White House. I’m just saying. So we’re going to get into all of that. That terrifies me. I mean, that absolutely scares me to death. We’re going to discuss this and a lot more here coming up as we move our partners. It’s a terrifying story. Hey, folks. So I want to share something important that every American should be aware of. We’re seeing a lot of economic uncertainty right now.

So here is a headline for the ages. Are you guys ready for this one? French pizza chef has confessed to killing a reclusive man and then chopping up and cooking his body in a pot of vegetables. Philippe Schneider. I’m actually, what the hell is a French pizza chef? Okay, sorry, the real story. Philippe Schneider and his partner, Nathalie Kabubasi, are on trial for their involvement in the murder of 60-year-old Georges Mechler, who disappeared in 2023. Apparently, he was killed. The chef and the lady, they killed him during a botched break-in at this recluse’s home deep in the woods in this friendship village. They denied involvement, but, yeah, Schneider said, yeah, we did. We tied him up, and, you know, we gagged him and all this stuff, and it came out that, yeah, we chopped him up and cooked it until… Told to cook the meat until it falls off the bone. And if anyone asks questions, oh, it’s just food for the dog. Yeah, they did cook them in a bunch of vegetables. This is like a rural area in France. Oh, my gosh. Cue banjos. What in the world?

Note to self, avoid French pizza chefs.

I didn’t want to say this in front of the others, but you know what I think the most important thing in life is? It’s love. You want to know what I love? Beer, Norm?
SPEAKER 1 :
Yeah, okay.
SPEAKER 23 :
Do you know Jason Sudeikis is his nephew? What? Yeah, Jason Sudeikis is George Wendt’s nephew. That’s true. Yep. So he’s passed away. Rest in peace, George Wendt, 76 years old. And the Supreme Court, we’ll talk about this more coming up, has sided with the main Republican that was censured simply for speaking out against men participating in female sports.

SPEAKER 22 :
How big a factor was the Hunter stuff?
SPEAKER 28 :
I think it was considerable. I think Hunter was driving the decision-making for the family in a way that people… He was almost like a chief of staff of the family.
SPEAKER 30 :
Does that strike you as pretty bizarre?
SPEAKER 28 :
It’s bizarre because I think he is provably, demonstrably unethical, sleazy, and prone to horrible decisions.
SPEAKER 20 :
Tell me how you really feel.
SPEAKER 28 :
Well, I mean, I just look at the record. I mean, after his brother died, he cheated on his wife with his brother’s widow and then got her addicted to crack. That’s just one thing I could say.
SPEAKER 23 :
Where was that causticness back when all of this stuff was coming out? Where was this caustic criticism? Let me pull this story up. When was this story? Back when Hunter Biden was joining cabinet meetings and running cabinet meetings. This was an NBC story. Let me get the date. Oh, this is July last year. I mean, he was… Hunter Biden was… joining those cabinet meetings. Some were saying that he was even running the White House after the debate. No joke. So like I said, the Cubby Coke makes sense now because it was Hunter’s. Because we thought, well, he’s not really there like all that much, is he? Oh, dude, if he’s running the White House, you know, in essence, then yeah. That was his Cubby Coke. I’m absolutely convinced. Welcome back. Dana Lash with you. Channel 347 is the stream. Of That’s terrifying to think that Hunter Biden essentially was making some very, probably making some very important decisions related to the function and operation of this nation. I mean, think about it. That’s terrifying. Good night. But where was all of this interest, you know, this journalistic interest? Oh, there wasn’t a big fatty fat book deal that was related to it, right? Oh, goodness. Kane asked a very good question. Ask your question.
SPEAKER 18 :
Well, can we point to any one decision Hunter’s made? Anything that we can hang our hat on that this guy should have been making decisions? I’m at a loss, too. Nothing’s coming to mind.
SPEAKER 23 :
Nothing’s coming to mind at all. The press and everyone acts like they want to know. Like Wall Street Journal had a piece out yesterday. Well, how really ill was he? You had, this is Washington Post. That was yesterday evening. If Biden was too frail for his job, voters should have been informed. Wow. We should have been told that Biden was too frail. Who didn’t tell us, said the media looking around, confused. We just… Who didn’t tell us? You? You guys didn’t? You guys were too busy trying to get in and have power. That’s what it was.
SPEAKER 18 :
If only there was an entity paid to pay attention closely to those things and then report it to the people.
SPEAKER 23 :
The media literally just ran under the velvet rope to join us, the poor, on the other side going, yeah, someone should have told us. It’s like that scene from Mean Girls. She doesn’t even go here. That’s what’s happening right now. Where were you guys at this whole time? You guys knew this. You knew what was happening. Listen to what they wrote here. I can’t believe that this is a paragraph in the Washington Post. Guys, they’re about journalism now. Stop it. Here’s what they wrote, Cain. This is so stupid. Sorry, it’s so hard to read this because it’s so absurd.
SPEAKER 22 :
Quote, it now seems that for a considerable time, Biden may have lacked the stamina and cognitive capacity that the job demands. And his family and his closest aides conceal this from the public.
SPEAKER 23 :
Their apparent decision to put personal loyalties ahead of their duty must be reckoned with. Wait. when he fell up the stairs, like for the fifth time, and we’re like, might be an issue here. You guys got mad and said we were conspiracy theorists and that the videos that we were all watching were cheap fakes. I mean, he forgot the name literally of one of his closest advisors. He forgot the opening to the Declaration of Independence and Well, that makes sense. He’s a Democrat. That one I’m like, meh, he’s on the left, so that makes sense. So now they’re very, oh my goodness, they’re very confused. Tapper wrote in his book that it was since at least 2022. He had moments where he couldn’t recall things. But they’re all trying to cover it up right now. They all want to pretend that They just were not aware. They weren’t aware of these things. They were trusting Biden’s handlers. They were trusting the people that were helping and assisting the president, which was Hunter Biden, apparently. Oh, my gosh. With his coke cubby. Why would you have a guy who… screwed his sister-in-law after he lost his brother. Got her on drugs. His wife, who knows? He’s a mess. He won’t stop filming himself and putting it online. I mean, P. Diddy and her Puff whatever, Puff Purvy and Hunter Biden are like one and the same. The P. Diddler? I don’t know. It’s so gross. It’s so gross. But they never asked. The journalists, they never asked the questions. They were too busy calling everybody else conspiracy theorists with all of this. All of this is happening. I’m going to get to the Nancy Mace video later. I don’t understand what’s happening with some of the stuff in the GOP. We got the big, beautiful bill that’s working its way through. And apparently I was reading a piece this morning that there’s there’s probably going to be included in this bill. is apparently, well, the language, no state or political subdivision thereof may enforce any law or regulation regulating artificial intelligence models, artificial intelligence systems, or automated decision systems during a 10-year period, blah, blah, blah. It’s this bill. It’s section 43201 of the bill. John Fleetwood wrote a big piece on this where he discussed how it was very blandly titled, you know, artificial intelligence and information tech. But apparently it seems to suggest that no state in the country, your state or any other state, would be allowed to create its own safeguards or liability standards for how AI is developed or deployed. That seems a little concerning, I think. That’s a little concerning, right? We don’t want states to lose the right to be able to determine how AI is developed or what liability within the state, the effect that it has. So that’s a little, hmm. And this is in Section 43-201 of this bill. It looks like a federal ban on local AI regulation. So the people that are embedding AI into government and military systems, everything from law enforcement to health care, you’re giving them the total control entirely of this. Why is that in this bill?
SPEAKER 18 :
Is there anything beautiful about this? Because I can see things that are big about it.
SPEAKER 23 :
I don’t know. The House Budget Committee passed all of this out yesterday. They still have to. Now, that just means it’s not passed out of the House. They pass it on a committee and it has to go for a vote floor or has to go for a vote with rules. And then it goes to the floor. So it has a couple of stops before it makes it to the floor. So they haven’t even started, you know, that the big public back and forth on it. They wanted to get this done by Memorial Day. They had literally a meeting last night at 1 a.m. And there was a lot of fireworks that that kicked off there. Now, some of the senators saying that they will stay if need be to make this happen. But I don’t know if it’s going to I don’t know if it’s going to happen. I don’t know if it’s going to make it by Memorial Day. So I just why is this in here? It looks like a this is an overreach. This is a usurpation of states rights. And this is in this bill. That’s very problematic.
SPEAKER 18 :
Are they arguing they don’t want to essentially hinder the development of AI? Is that kind of their argument with it?
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, all the language says is, it says, again, it’s sections, it’s page, I think this is 292, 43201. No state or political subdivision thereof may enforce any law or regulation regulating artificial intelligence models, artificial intelligence systems, or automated decision systems during the 10-year period beginning on the date of the enactment of this act, of this… this budget reconciliation. And they, they talk a little bit about it, but that is very concerning with us.
SPEAKER 18 :
Yeah. Cause on one hand I’m okay with deregulation, but on another hand, I don’t understand why states can’t do what they feel like they need to do for their own citizens. To that point, it makes no sense to me.
SPEAKER 23 :
No, it doesn’t. And I, I, it’s kind of wild to me. I mean, it’s this buried in here. So it’s a federal ban on any kind of… I mean, you’re handing all control of this over to bureaucrats. All the people who develop it, all the people who are trying to get it in our government systems. I mean, you’re… Not theoretically, you are handing control over to all of them on this. Now, the budget committee members, they… Like I said, they were kicking this out yesterday. They were voting on this. There’s five more Republicans than there are Democrats. Ranking members is Jody Arrington out of Texas for the Budget Committee. You have Ralph Norman. You have a bunch of other folks, Chip Roy, that are on this. And we’ll see where it goes. But I don’t know if this is… going to make it in the final bill or not remember because if the if if the federal government isn’t regulating it then really you’re i mean there’s no no one’s regulating it and what accountability would states have at that level at a state level if you if you have the federal government rolling out automated, you know, or AI powered or whatever systems nationwide, you’re limiting, you’re limiting those attorney generals of those states too. And we’ve seen how AGs in different states have really been leading the charge against a lot of, you know, some bad decisions over the past four years federally. So that this kneecaps them, I would think. I’m going to find out more about this for you. I’m going to make some inquiries with some folks who are in Congress who can who specifically focus on this, because that means if states can’t. Can you sue for like what if you’re what if you actually have a legal issue and you wanted to find you just you wanted to find relief in court? Would you be able to do that under this? I mean, this is. I mean, I think it’s a fair question to ask. So this is incredibly troubling. We have more to come as we roll towards the conclusion of this first hour.

We share real stories with the suspense of true crime, but we’ll leave you with a sense of light and hope.

Like the college wrestler who fought a grizzly, the woman who was dead for nearly an hour, or the child lost in a dark mine for days. These are the kind of stories that remind us miracles are real.

SPEAKER 17 :
Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States.
SPEAKER 21 :
Some carry hate. We carry the largest trans pride flag to ever be flown in a national park and unfurled it on the side of El Cap to prove a point that trans is natural. The Trump administration and transphobes would love to have you believe that being trans is unnatural, but species that can transition sexes can be found on every continent and in every ocean on planet Earth. So call it a protest, call it a celebration. We are bringing elevation to liberation. They try to erase us from government websites and education systems.
SPEAKER 22 :
So we put a flag on the side of a rock. We won. What? We put a flag on the side of a rock to prove a point. What point did you prove? We don’t know. But it was a stunt that we did.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay, that doesn’t make any sense. What that guy looks like, you remember how if you don’t prompt AI properly and it gives you like this. mashed up montage of what it thinks the person… If you ask, I want an Abraham Lincoln wrestler or something like that. And it’s like a weird AI kind of image. He looks like a weird AI image. I mean, I’m made of jokes right now. First off, I don’t think he needs to worry about being attacked by a bear because a bear would just be… No. That’s what is up with that one. Number one. Number two… Are you there to like do park stuff or are you there to put on makeup and prance around in booty shorts? This isn’t Reno 911. I mean, it’s a park FFS. Come on. What are you doing? Does anyone like, oh, you flew a flag on a made up flag that’s like brand new from just a few years ago that you flew on the side of a rock. And for what purpose? Did anybody see it? No, they didn’t. Oh, you had to make a video about it to prove what? Oh, that trends is natural. So you decided to prove that a made up cosplaying gender swap is natural by using a synthetic material flag and by using all of, you know, like climbing up on the side of a rock to what? That doesn’t even make any sense. That’s it’s just so dumb and performative. It’s so cringe.
SPEAKER 18 :
She did have one hell of a cookie duster, though. You see that thing?
SPEAKER 23 :
I mean, you know, what woman doesn’t have a push broom stash? I’m just saying, you know, what woman doesn’t? I can’t.
SPEAKER 18 :
Juan’s going to have to show it again.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yes, do please show it again, Juan.
SPEAKER 18 :
Because that is one. It took me a year to grow a mustache like that.
SPEAKER 23 :
It takes some balls to climb up an old cap and put a flag like that up there.
SPEAKER 18 :
Hold on, let’s see if we get to that point.
SPEAKER 23 :
It’s like tiny. It’s like being on the moon.
SPEAKER 18 :
I had a shower curtain like that in college.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, they wrote little words on it.
SPEAKER 18 :
There it is. There it is.
SPEAKER 23 :
Okay, how are you a park person?
SPEAKER 18 :
Holy smokes.
SPEAKER 23 :
And you’re going out there with that much makeup on. I mean, the amount of makeup that he is wearing on his face. I don’t know women that wear that much makeup on their face. And I also don’t know why they have the clownfish at the little bottom. Isn’t that a clownfish? What the hell fish is that? Is this like a Finding Nemo thing? Why do they put the weirdest stuff up?
SPEAKER 18 :
It is pretty clowny. What’s going on?
SPEAKER 23 :
I don’t know. So… I mean, I think I would be more unnerved by having this guy come up to me telling me about the flag on the rock than like a bear.
SPEAKER 18 :
You mean woman?
SPEAKER 23 :
I mean, no.
SPEAKER 18 :
No, I don’t mean woman.
SPEAKER 23 :
I look just like a lady. Look at me. I’m a lady. It’s just not how any of this works. Oh, my gosh.
SPEAKER 17 :
You’ve got some baseball-sized lady nuts on you coming in all kamikaze like that.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah. Why are you gay? Yeah, if you don’t have me turned up.
SPEAKER 15 :
Excuse me, it’s ma’am. It is ma’am. Right?
SPEAKER 23 :
See? Why are you gay? I’m sane. Golly.
SPEAKER 22 :
We’re just normal men. What do you mean, normal men? We’re just innocent men.
SPEAKER 23 :
if you’re just be a park ranger there, you don’t have to put on full, the full makeup kit. Every single time you go out, out of doors, it’s not necessary. We’ve got a lot more on the way. Stick with us. The second hour is coming up. Burn a gun. Look, it makes sense to diversify your weapons array. I’m not, I’m not going to tell you not to carry. I think you should carry a gun. And I think that you should not be afraid to use it in defense of yourself or a loved one. Um, I try to avoid gun-free zone areas because they’re dumb and it’s unconstitutional and these people don’t do anything to protect you. They just want the virtue signaling of saying gun-free. But I also don’t want to like make a political statement not caring and then get turned into a statistic. So Berna is – it’s a self-defense weapon. it’s shaped like a gun. Like you got the Berner rifle, you got all these other kinds. But I think for the purpose of this, the Berner SD and their new compact launcher, the Berner CL, that’s what you need to focus on. And they shoot chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away. It doesn’t care about stupid gun-free zone signs. It doesn’t care about any of that. There’s no background checks. There’s no waiting periods. You don’t have to pay a tax stamp. There’s none of it sent right to your front door. And you are able to still have a means of protection that When a private property wants to disarm you or a local or municipal restriction and for college kids, too, that are too young to carry, but also live alone. This is a great idea for them as well. And it’s super affordable. You can check it out. They have like different accessories and colors and all that. The Burna CL, it’s like maybe just under seven inches long, really thin. And it’s, there’s no, I mean, there’s no recoil, easy target acquisition. And the SD, that’s one of its best selling self-defense options. You can look at all of them at Burna.com slash Dana, B-Y-R-N-A.com slash Dana.

SPEAKER 22 :
Well, hello. Welcome back.
SPEAKER 23 :
We’re at the top of our second hour. I don’t even know. I feel like I need to apologize to you guys for the segment that we about have to do here. But it must be discussed because it is important news of the nation, Cain. And we are all about news and important and business and numbers. Yes, we are. Very important things. So welcome back. Top of the second hour, Dana Lash. The chat’s at Rumble. Channel 347 is the live stream of the radio show. So yesterday, you know, everybody’s been for the past several days, everybody’s been talking about the big, beautiful bill, the big, beautiful bill. It’s all we’ve heard about. And everybody’s, you know, been really fighting and trying to get the best thing. Some of us for the taxpayer, some of us. Well, not us, but some of them, like Mike Lawler, want you to bail out blue states with salt deductions, etc., etc. And while they’ve been having all of these issues, while they’ve been having all of these debates, while Congress was talking about all of this stuff, Nancy Mace decides she needed to interject. Now… So… She had a issue that she needed to be discussed. And the issue she needed to be discussed was that of her ex-fiancé that I think Cain asked, is this the prayer breakfast fiancé? Yes. where she was at a Christian prayer breakfast, and she, well, go ahead and roll this. This is flashback.
SPEAKER 29 :
Go ahead. And when I woke up this morning at 7, I was getting picked up at 7.45. Patrick, my fiancé, tried to pull me by my waist over this morning in bed, and I was like, no, baby, we don’t got time for that this morning. I got to get to the prayer breakfast.
SPEAKER 23 :
That was Patrick Bryant that she was talking about. So she’s in front of the group of, you know, a big Christian group. She’s like, nah, baby, I ain’t got time to fornicate with you right now. I got to go and pray for Jesus. Pray with Jesus right now. That’s what I got. It was funny. We were joking about it at the time. Well, then it decided to get a little bit spicier. So how did it get spicier? Well, they went from fornicating before prayer breakfast to, well, audio soundbite for Juan, if you will.
SPEAKER 30 :
Today in my hearing, I’m going to dissect what that guy did to dozens of women hidden on a hidden camera and other devices as he recorded them with impunity, without their knowledge, without their permission, and without their consent. Patrick Bryant, I hope you’re ready. I’m also going to be sharing some of… the imagery that Patrick Bryant, that guy right there, took of myself and other women without our knowledge, without our permission, without our consent. Naked bodies, women’s legs spread apart, different genital areas. And he had a catalog of these different fetishes of what types of videos and photos he liked to capture of women without their knowledge.
SPEAKER 23 :
I mean, you can just say he took some videos. You don’t have to be like, and all the genital areas of the genitals. Did I say genitals?
SPEAKER 15 :
Genitals. Other genital areas.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah. Now, you might think, well, Dana, this is an important issue. It’s already weird for me because this is her ex. So it seems a little bit like you’re trying to settle a score. So anyway, Nancy Mace went into D.C., And she had her presentation ready. And she’s out of South Carolina. And this was, well, I mean, she has her, this was basically her the other day. Her with this, I mean, live look. The presentation. Just saying.
SPEAKER 16 :
That is not a live look. What was that? That’s not live look.
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, maybe. I don’t know if there was any AI used. I mean, soon we might be barred from even having any kind of local jurisdiction over it anyway. Yes, Kane?
SPEAKER 16 :
A little Photoshop.
SPEAKER 23 :
Might be. We don’t know. Audio Soundbite 5, though. So she shared all of this, like, all about her ex. I don’t know how else to say this. We’re in the middle of a budget battle, and she’s Audio Soundbite 5. I don’t know.
SPEAKER 03 :
Exhibit one, behind me is a screenshot from one of the videos I found of myself, the yellow circle. This naked silhouette is my naked body. I didn’t know that I had been filmed. I didn’t give my consent. I didn’t give my permission. And this particular video that Patrick Bryant recorded of me on his secret camera, he saved for over three years without my knowledge. I didn’t pick this fight. I don’t even want to be here today and discuss this. But because he’s still roaming around South Carolina free, filming whatever genital parts he wants. Genital parts? Because no one has held him accountable. Can I just interject here?
SPEAKER 23 :
I mean, I don’t know what their issue is. This was the same guy, apparently, that at the prayer breakfast. Again, she was like, well, my honey was trying to, my fiance was trying to pull me over. And I was like, no. I just… It seems entirely performative. And it seems, I feel like Nancy Mason needs to do a little bit more lawmaking and a little less seeking attention. Because every damn day it’s something. She’s either wearing the big, you know, the tight t-shirt with an A on it and all this stuff. She literally wrote, like, wore a crimson A going into, I don’t know. And then we have this. That she’s just in Congress showing, that looked like a security camera footage. Is this this guy’s house? Because if it’s this guy’s house, first off, how did she get the footage? Number one. And number two, it looks like a security camera. I have security cameras all through my house. I don’t, granted, I don’t, you know, walk in my birthday suit just down. I’m just going to go get some chips. Walk right out there. It’s not. I just don’t. I don’t. It looks like it. Kane, it looks like security footage. It doesn’t seem like he was trying to get booby shots.
SPEAKER 18 :
Right. And was that posted like online?
SPEAKER 23 :
No, no, it was not that I know of.
SPEAKER 06 :
I don’t.
SPEAKER 23 :
So here’s the thing. So she says this. She says this on the floor of the house. And when lawmakers are on the floor of the house like this and they say these things. They have immunity. But then once they get off the House floor and they start posting this stuff on social media, they do not. Well, she started posting this stuff on social media. So now Patrick Bryant has reacted and he sent out a statement. She actually went at him on X. She goes, if you weren’t a rapist, why would you film a rape and why would you be filmed raping? And I mean, oh, my gosh. And he’s like, this is he’s denying everything. They and I noticed that in none of these pieces, like even the Newsweek piece, I don’t think it identifies him as being her ex, her ex fiance that she was at the prayer breakfast with. Well, well, finally, like way down they do. But I mean, I think that’s incredibly important in this context. Right. So it seemed, is she mad at him? Like, did he cheat on her? And now she’s, you know, now she’s, I mean, I’m just curious. What is happening here? What’s happening? So can you tell my fare goes up again? Yeah. So they, they’ve done, he’s denied wrongdoing. He issued a statement. She called him her stalker. And he’s mad that she keeps talking about him on the floor. So he issued this huge statement. saying, I categorically deny the false and outrageous claims. I’ve never raped anyone. I’ve never hidden cameras. I’ve never harmed any women. The accusations are not just false. They’re malicious and deeply personal. My mistake was loving and trusting someone who later weaponized our relationship. He talks about how she made the claims while on the congressional floor so she had immunity. And then he said, what’s worse, multiple witnesses have testified under oath directly contradicting her claims. And her story. And he said, what’s worse than doing this? She’s interfering with an ongoing investigation in which I fully cooperated. He goes, this is an advocacy. And so he put out this this whole statement. And I don’t know. I like I said, that one video that she shared looked like security camera footage. Can I tell you what it sounds like on just on the face of it? It sounds like she’s scorned and she’s trying to settle a score. That’s what it sounds like, because she kept bringing up other women. So it sounds like he screwed around on her and she’s trying to settle the score. I mean, that’s what I’m just saying. It sounds like I’m not saying that it happened. I have no skin in this game. I just think that she’s way, way dramatic to the point of distraction for Congress. I do. I, I, I, I’m just shocked. Like we’re having a budget battle and she’s all out here. I know I’m, is there a better time and place to, you know, be like, you see, I mean, you can’t even see anything. She had to circle it. Like, see right here. Those are my boobies. You see that right there?
SPEAKER 22 :
I circled it for you. I’m going to zoom in like on CSI.
SPEAKER 14 :
The erection.
SPEAKER 23 :
Kane, that’s kind of the vibe I get from this whole thing.
SPEAKER 18 :
Yeah, it is. And it’s a shame. Because you’d like to have the thoughts of your representatives, you know, that they’re actually integrous in their duties to their constituents. Instead, she’s using it for this vengeful relationship thing. It’s sad.
SPEAKER 23 :
It’s sad. Yeah, we all didn’t… We didn’t need to have that. You know, I’m just saying. But it does. It sounds like… There it is. Oh my gosh. It would be one thing if this was… The only time that this seemed to be contrived, but she’s pulled a lot of stunts. Like, I’ve never seen anybody talk about bathrooms so many times. Yes, we don’t want a dude, you know, with an actual weenus in the bathroom. Get it. Yeah, I am all right there. But you’ve like made like two months of spin out of it. And the where she wore this like tight T-shirt with the letter A on it. I’m just really I don’t like chicks that try too hard. You know what I’m saying? Like, just be a chick and just be you and do what you’re supposed to do and you’ll get attention. I just don’t like the reach. I’ve never met her. I’m not saying she’s a bad person, but I just think this is the wrong strategy to have with stuff like this. And also, if you’re a member of Congress and you’re going to be accusing a dude of rape, you better be damn sure that he was like raping people or. before you start imperiling yourself by making said accusation. That’s a serious thing. And I just, you know, that looked like security camera footage. I thought we were going to get like some Chuck Berry in the bathroom kind of business. And we did not. So just saying. You can’t fix her, Cain. Stop it. She’s not… You can’t do that.
SPEAKER 16 :
I thought I could.
SPEAKER 23 :
No, you can’t. Our friends over at Home Title Lock. Look, all I’m going to say is this. Your house is your most valuable asset. And people think, oh, I just locked my door. It’s all good. Got an alarm system. Everything’s great. But then you don’t protect your home’s title. And… i’m not saying i’m not that i would do this but it is so easy for people to just scam you out of your house uh to get your title to fake i mean they can go and get the faker signature and buy a notary stamp i mean it’s they can fake it it’s not a not saying i did this but it’s not a difficult thing pay a small fee with the county and then they can transfer somebody’s title out of their name there’s a reason why this has been growing for the past 10 years as a crime And it’s getting worse now with the advent of AI and also everything being digital. At one forge, signature is all it takes. And sadly, most people have no idea until they start getting foreclosure notices or collection calls. And then when you realize this and you have to fight to get your home back, You got to hire an attorney, and it is expensive. You’re talking thousands and thousands of dollars.

SPEAKER 18 :
And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s Quick Five.
SPEAKER 23 :
Man, coming up, wait until you see the video that we got. Trump is in the Oval Office with the South African president, and he just showed him a huge video montage of all of the people calling for kill the Boer, kill the white farmer, and just right in the riot act in front of all of the press. We’re going to have that video coming up for you. You do not want to miss it. Also, let’s see. We got a bunch of stuff here. Getting down into it. This… Moody’s cuts deposit ratings at major banks because they downgraded the U.S. Moody’s ratings cut its ratings for deposit at Bank of America, J.P. Morgan, Chase & Company, Wells Fargo, etc. It was citing Friday’s downgrade of our weakened ability to support the firms. They said long-term deposit ratings at these banks declined. This is Moody. They were lowered by one step to a two Moody’s third highest level. And they downgraded the senior unsecured debt ratings for some units of Bank of America and others, cutting them from a two to one. So mortgage rates have jumped seven percent also after that downgrade of U.S. credit. That’s new. And home buying season, the U.S. market is wobbling. This is, I mean, the kickoff of the major home buying season when kids are out of school. People are, you know, it’s a spring going into summer. That’s the time everybody relocates. And apparently sales of existing homes have now dropped to their lowest level in six months, even as inventory jumped to a five year high. And a lot of it growing concerns over tariffs in the future of the US economy. There’s still some concerns about construction materials, things like that, that are not specifically related to what we’re getting in from China or what we’re getting in from the UK. So that’s where a lot of those worries are. centered on. And that makes some sense. So that affects new home sales. It also affects remodeling costs. There’s a drop in people that are remodeling their homes right now because I didn’t realize, again, lumber and Canada and all this other stuff, that’s a big deal. And so they’re seeing that price reflected already in the stores. And so they’re a little cautious about all of that. So that’s just some of the latest with the housing market. The Chicago Sun-Times printed An AI-generated summer reading list with books that literally do not exist. None of these books exist. They made a fake list of books. Summer reading lists for 2025, literally books that are not in at all existence. And they ran with it. They ran with it. And then they realized, oh, wait a minute. The authors don’t exist and neither do the books. So that’s, oops, our bad. Kevin Spacey slammed Hollywood’s blacklist. He’s returning to the spotlight. He received this big award at the Cannes Film Festival. He’s 65 years old. He was cleared of sexual assault on four men two years ago. And he was slamming blacklisting. He’s going to try to make a comeback. We got a lot more in store. Stick with us. Healthy metabolism, healthy blood sugar, all good things. So you can do that with the Super Bering product. It’s at Sam’s Club. And you can get it for less than a dollar a day. It supports healthy metabolism, healthy blood sugar. And it’s doctor formulated, plant based, doctor formulated with a unique form of berberine and Italian olive fruit extract for additional antioxidant cardiovascular support. And there’s a lot of discussion about metabolic health and the support benefits of berberine. But you don’t want to buy just like any old ragtag berberine supplement. You know, you don’t want to stop at a roadside stand or, you know, it’s always sunny in Philadelphia. Get some bridge berberine. You need to actually get the real deal. Superbarine is clinically studied to deliver nearly 10 times higher absorption than standard berberine. So the higher concentration means fewer pills to swallow. One capsule easy to swallow daily is all you need.

SPEAKER 23 :
So right now in the Oval Office, South African president is sitting with POTUS and some PGA golfers. And who, buddy, they had a discussion and Trump brought up the targeting of the white farmer in South Africa. And he didn’t only just bring up the targeting of the white farmer in South Africa. He then pulled out a stack of news articles about them all getting killed and then played a video montage for the South African president, Cyril Ramaphosa. Watch this. This just happened.
SPEAKER 07 :
Turn the lights down. Turn the lights down and just put this on. It’s right behind you. There’s nothing this parliament can do.
SPEAKER 11 :
With or without you, people are going to occupy land. We require no permission from you, from the president, from no one. We don’t care if you can do whatever you want to do. Who are you to tell us whether we are going to occupy land or not? We are going to occupy land. We are going to occupy land. That’s who we are. We are going to occupy land. You must never be scared to kill. A revolution demands that at some point there must be killing. And it’s Julius Malerma, the EFF.
SPEAKER 10 :
Kill the poor, the farmer. Kill the poor, the farmer. The man of T.J. is a white man.
SPEAKER 12 :
This is in the White House.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, let’s go back to it. This is this is in the this is in the White House right now in the Oval Office just minutes ago. And he’s playing all of this for the South African president. And he was asking them, well, what about the the fight against the white farmer and the videos that he’s showing him? So this is a communist party that is in South Africa. They’re they’re in they’re in the government. They might not be a majority player, but they’ve got a lot of alliances because they’ve got a parliamentary-style government. So, excuse me, that’s Julius Malerma, who’s head of the EFF. That’s how many people. Look at the stadium. That was just last year. The video that he’s showing him, that was last year. And there’s all this video, and he’s showing this to the South African president. And he also had a stack of, as this is playing, as all the, like, this is in front of him. Trump had right on his left side, he had a stack of news articles about all of the targeting of the white farmers in South Africa. And he was asking them about this, like, well, you know, Here, Ramaphosa thought he was going to be coming to the Oval Office. He didn’t know what to do. Ramaphosa’s just staring straight ahead. He didn’t know what to do. He was hoping to improve South Africa’s relationship with the administration because Trump canceled all aid to the country. He kicked out the South African ambassador and then they brought in 59 white Africaners, well, Africaners that are a minority there, Dutch descended hundreds of years ago. They’ve been in South Africa for over 400 years. And Musk was standing in there. Musk is in that room. Elon Musk is standing there amongst the reporters as Trump is playing this for the South African president. And go ahead and bring him back up.
SPEAKER 07 :
Right here. Burial sites. Over a thousand of white farmers and those cars are lined up. to pay love on a Sunday morning. Each one of those white things you see is a cross. And there’s approximately a thousand of them. They’re all white farmers, the family of white farmers. And those cars aren’t driving. They’re stopped there to pay respects to their family member who was killed. And it’s a terrible sight. I’ve never seen anything like it. Both sides of the road, you have crosses.
SPEAKER 23 :
He’s showing all of this. Now, what the what Ramaphosa was trying to argue with him. Is that, well, it’s, you know, he’s just a small minority member. And they’re not, they’re not, you know, they’re just a small minority member. And he’s really not, you know, it’s really not doing anything, et cetera, et cetera. Yeah, play this real quick, because this is him trying to defend against this. This is wild. All just happened a little bit ago. If we can get this up.
SPEAKER 07 :
after viewing a thing where thousands of people are dead. I’m sorry, I don’t have a plane to give you. I wish you did. If your country offered the United States Air Force a plane, I would take it.
SPEAKER 23 :
And he mentioned the land that he said, well, we wanted a different one, but we don’t need it just yet. But he mentioned the land, and he was saying, well, Trump brought this up, and he said, well, you know that… they seize the land of white farmers. And Ramaphosa was saying, no, they don’t. Hold up. You guys remember, we talked about this last week. Cyril Ramaphosa literally signed the order. He signed it. He signed that order into law, the bill that literally allowed land seizures without compensation. Even the BBC, you know, that bastion of conservatism over there, they even had to report this. We read you the law. It is a race-based law. Depending on the… expropriation that can be done it outlines that it replaces the 1975 expropriation act and it has now and that had an obligation that uh the state had to pay owners that it wanted to take land from under this vaguely enforced principle of willing seller willing buyer and it com now it just the new law just totally did that The new law actually only compensates people that it seizes land from with where it is. And this is the quote from the law, just and equitable in the public interest to do so. So they don’t even have to they don’t even have to actually do it. And that they signed that and they actually note race based in here. Here’s Ramaphosa denying that this happens again. He signed the literal law.
SPEAKER 14 :
he was saying, even in the parliament. And they’re a small minority party, which is allowed to exist in terms of our constitution.
SPEAKER 07 :
But you do allow them to take land. No, no, no, no. You do allow them to take land. Nobody can take land. And when they take the land, they kill the white farmer. And when they kill the white farmer, nothing happens to them. No. Nothing happens to them.
SPEAKER 14 :
There is criminality in our country. People who do get killed, unfortunately, through criminal activity are not only white people. Majority of them are black people.
SPEAKER 07 :
And we have now been utilized. The farmers are not black. I don’t say that’s good or bad, but the farmers are not black. And the people that are being killed in large numbers, and you saw all those grave sites, and those are people that loved ones going, I guess on a Sunday morning they told me, to pay respect to their loved ones that were killed. Their heads chopped off. They died violently. And, you know, I mean, we’re here to talk about it. And I didn’t know we’d get involved here. But I will say this, that if the news wasn’t fake like NBC, which is fake news, totally one of the worst, ABC, NBC, CBS, horrible. But if they weren’t fake news like this jerk, that we have here. If we had real reporters, they’d be covering it, but the fake news in this country doesn’t talk about that. They don’t want to talk about it, but now they have to talk about it. But they won’t. This won’t even be a subject. They’ll have him talking about why did a country give a free thing of this. Why did a country give an airplane to the United States Air Force? Okay. The United States, not to me, to the United States Air Force.
SPEAKER 23 :
I mean, Trump is exactly right here. He is exactly right. The president that he’s sitting next to, South African president with the ANC party, he literally signed that bill into law. He signed that bill into law. That’s a real thing. It was in January of last year is when he signed that law into effect. So for and that’s I’ve read you the law. We’ve just cited it again. And it actually not only does it say, yes, we can’t expropriate, we can seize your land. Basically, it’s eminent domain without any kind of compensation. And the compensation is predicated upon whether or not it’s determined by who they don’t actually specify. It’s just and equitable for the public. And they also say they also prioritize where it concerns expropriation. It’s dependent upon race. Now, keep in mind, the African National Congress also they also determine everything from water needs to trade based on race. That is statute. That’s statutory. It’s in writing. So these are not things that you can just deny or you can just shrug away. They exist. And this guy, he can sit here and try to deflect and say, well, Julius Malema, he’s you know, he’s the EFF is a minority party. They’re they’re still in power. And that is separate from the fact that you signed the law that they championed about the seizure of property with priority on seizing property that comes from people who descended from the Dutch over 400 years ago. That is a fact. It’s indisputable. So I’m glad that POTUS did this so much. And I know some people say, oh, well, you know, we need to do it with formality, etc. Do you know how much corruption and brutality is shoved under the rug past the veneer of formality? Why not? I think Trump is in DGAF mode, and I’m totally fine with that. I mean, he should be. He doesn’t have to run for reelection again. He can lay it all on the line. And this is a big issue. Communism and the EFF is a huge communist party. Remember, you had Ramaphosa just telling Trump right there, oh, well, it’s a minority party. Did you see the video of all those people in the stadium? Hundreds of thousands of people in the stadium. Did that look like a minority party to you? Do you think… that even if it is a minority party by way of representation in South Africa’s government, did that stadium full of hundreds of thousands of people indicate that it is a minority sentiment? That’s the real question. Unbelievable stuff. And I’m glad that that happened. I’m glad that they showed it. I mean, the agriculture minister actually confirmed it. They had to confirm it. The South African minister of agriculture confirmed in the Oval Office while they were all standing there. Yes, they’re killing white farmers. And yet you have ABC saying this, quote, President Trump and South African President Ramaphosa engaged in a back and forth at the White House over Trump’s unfounded claims of genocide in the whites of white South African farmers. Not making this up. They actually tweeted that. Unbelievable. We have Florida man on the way. We have a whole bunch of stuff as well.

Could Luigi Mangione’s killing of the UnitedHealthcare CEO lead to anarchy in America? Pastor Alan Jackson says yes.
SPEAKER 25 :
But he shot this insurance executive. And I mean, there’s this whole host of people trying to justify it because their insurance got canceled. Therefore, it’s okay to go assassinate some insurance worker. That is teetering on anarchy.

SPEAKER 18 :
It’s his life mission to make bad decisions.
SPEAKER 17 :
It’s time for Florida Man.
SPEAKER 23 :
All right. So a Florida man’s brake lights led deputies to a major fentanyl, heroin and meth bust. It was a routine traffic stop and deputies discovered a ton. Well, lots of grams of fentanyl and various illegal substances. Hernando County Sheriff, they said that this is back on April 12th, but they’re not having all the legal stuff now. They conducted a routine patrol when they spotted a green sedan, and they had all these equipment violations, malfunctioning brake lights, inoperable tag light, whatever. And the guy said, oh, yeah, my brake lights, when they pulled them over, they’re not working properly. And he consented to a search of the vehicle, telling deputies, there should be no drugs in here. Okay, when you say that, there’s going to be drugs in the car. Like, what do you mean there should be? Like, you had some, and you dropped them off, or, like, you’re going to get it? Like, what? And they found… Almost 34 grams of fentanyl, a gram of heroin, 12 grams of meth, 18 grams of marijuana, and then all kinds of drug-related paraphernalia. But the fentanyl, that’s a ton of fentanyl. That’s a lot of fentanyl. So they arrested him. He was accused of trafficking because he had the amounts, possession of controlled substances, all kinds of stuff. So he went to Dupoke. Yeah, when you’re like, no, there shouldn’t be any drugs. That’s like coming up to me and, you know, like, yeah, Dana, there shouldn’t be any guns. I mean, I just there shouldn’t be. I mean, I don’t know. Oops. I am. I’m fascinated by this story about the guy, this guy with the unpermitted dumps. So a Florida man operates unpermitted dumps and the neighbors told on him. He’s facing two civil lawsuits, Maximo Sanchez and criminal. How do you. OK, how do you operate an unpermitted dump?
SPEAKER 18 :
It’s when you dump things on the ground and it’s not like a dumpster or a landfill.
SPEAKER 23 :
But does it act as a landfill and it just doesn’t.
SPEAKER 18 :
Apparently there’s rules that he violated as to where this junk should be put.
SPEAKER 23 :
This is in Tampa. So it’s a facility, apparently. It’s near the wetlands, which is apparently an environmentally sensitive area. And they said it could negatively impact water supply. And the guy promised to clean it up, and then he never did. And now he’s facing civil lawsuits, fines, and criminal charges. And they said they have like a three-story high mound of construction and debris. And the pile, it started on a vacant lot. And the vacant lot is on protected wetlands. And there’s all kinds of trucks dumping debris at the site nonstop. And the guy… Apparently, he didn’t have the required permit, and they said that it’s, I mean, it could seep into the water system because of how the land is, is what they’re saying. So, yeah, it’s a big deal. I just didn’t, I mean, when you see the photos of it, I mean, it’s a giant dump site. Yeah. And he just decided to do it with.
SPEAKER 18 :
I got to be honest, when I first saw the headline yesterday, I didn’t think it was going to be about junk.
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, what did you think it was going to be?
SPEAKER 18 :
Oh, you’re… I mean, it’s Florida Man. I thought he was actually doing dumps.
SPEAKER 23 :
You thought it was… Exactly. I mean, so that’s the reason it’s Florida Man. So, what do you think is going to happen? So yeah, that I just sent you a foot. Like it looks, I mean, it looks like a huge ginormous area. Yeah, it’s huge. So he’s got, I just am shocked that only in Florida, man, what’s happening. We got a lot more on the way.

SPEAKER 06 :
So, you know, I said that this was Biden at his best. Sure. That’s what I saw. I don’t doubt other people. I was obviously wrong. So I’m not sure what my takeaway is here.
SPEAKER 23 :
Do they think that that absolves them of all of their culpability of this? Well, I mean, I thought I looked at him and I thought I thought it was OK. I mean, I obviously was wrong. Oh, well. Back to pandering. No, that’s not going to absolve you of all of this. It doesn’t absolve you of this at all. At all. This is… I just, he looked like he was totally fine, you know? I didn’t know. These people are in the press. Like, they’re supposed to be sniffing out sus stuff, you know? And they don’t, I don’t buy this. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash. That’s Joe Scarborough. They’re all, everybody, even Tapper, all of them. Like, I just deny that we’re culpable in all of this. I just don’t think I’m responsible. You guys were all complicit. They were all complicit in this. Every one of them. Every one of them. Every one of them. And I don’t know. I… I just don’t know how they can. They’re going to try to get away with it. I mean, the fact, again, that you had Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, that was sitting in on cabinet meetings. And remember when we first found that out and NBC ran that last year. Do you remember when we first found that out and we thought, it’s weird. Why is why is he sitting in on these cabinet meetings? Now, I think he was sitting in on the cabinet meetings because he had to be in his dad’s ear because his dad had no idea where the hell he was. He had no clue what was happening. That’s why he was. I think he was in the White House because they all had to babysit him. And I do think to an extent, especially as people saw that he was really struggling, I think because they had Hunter. Two of Hunter’s kids, one of Hunter’s kids’ fiancés, remember all these people that moved into the White House? And we’re like, why are all these people living there? I think that the family were all moving in so that they could even try to protect him as… You know, they could try to protect him from some of the inner circle that I think we’re already kind of rubbing their hands together with all this. So welcome back to the program. Again, Dana Lash, with you, we are at the top of this third hour. And I have been made aware, so members of Congress were told, you’re all not leaving or going nowhere until this bill passes. Because they were trying to get this done so they could go home and for an extended Memorial Day weekend. And now that is not happening. That is not happening. So this. I don’t know. I just I think this is great. And I think and I like Marjorie Taylor Greene. But Marjorie Taylor Greene’s pissing me off right now with this. So she this is what she just tweeted. She tweeted this quote. Every no vote on President Trump’s big, beautiful bill is from the Freedom Caucus. Where are DeSantis supporters? And one was Nikki Haley. They can’t lie and say they support the president and his agenda. The president, then, by your own count, doesn’t support his own agenda because you’re taxing Social Security or taxing retired military pay. You’re you’re you’re continuing green new spending. What are you talking about? Why the hell are you making this about DeSantis? Did Susie Wiles get in your ear and tell you to do it, Marjorie? Like, what the hell? Usually you’re cool, but this is a bitch move. Why would you do this? This is asinine. Stop this stuff. I get it that people are protecting power and they have a fetish for trying to relitigate the primary. Oh, my gosh. Get the F over it. Get over it. Get over the primary. Some of them can’t, though, because their influence diminishes. Normally I like her, but that was a stupid move. But that’s it. If anybody wants fiscal accountability, the people who actually are arguing for green news scam, they’re turning around and saying, no, you’re the squish. That’s not how this works. That is absolutely not how this works. So this was disappointing. This was disappointing. I don’t know why she brought that up out everywhere out of absolutely nowhere. I’m going to bring that. I’m going to bring this up one time, too. I am so tired of everybody bitching and moaning over DeSantis and the 2020 primary. I have a problem with people who can’t get over free and fair elections. This is my line on it. Everybody had I mean, hell, by that by that count, you hate J.D. Vance. J.D. Vance called Trump a Nazi and ran against him. And then he came back and said, okay, well, you know, I changed my mind. I spoke and I was wrong. And that’s fine. But some people never did that. Some people just disagreed on Second Amendment. Some people just disagreed on spending. But this idea that you have to… like you have to sit here and forever judge everything by 2020. I’m going to tell you something. In this country, we have free and fair elections. Part of our free and fair elections in this country, as a free people, moderately, are having primaries. We have primaries, right? We’ve always had primaries. Even sometimes when there are incumbents that come in, we have primaries. And it is, everybody gets a shot. That’s the thing. Everybody gets a shot, just like Trump gets a shot. Everybody gets a shot. But people got mad over it in 2020 during or sorry, 2024 during that primary. They got mad over that and they haven’t let it go. And they’re like, oh, well, DeSantis and all this stuff. And they go on and on. Trump and DeSantis are over it. But apparently some of these other people are not. And it constantly comes up. I don’t look at it. If you want to judge somebody by whether or not you’re keeping to their agenda. First off, I don’t judge the performative act of pressing your lips to someone’s backside as a real measure of whether or not you’re enforcing their agenda. What I look at is, are you voting accordingly? So Trump campaigned on getting rid of the Green New Deal. Why the hell is Marjorie Taylor Greene and all these lawmakers then trying to vote for a piece of legislation that literally funds 90 percent of Biden’s Green News scam? That is not up for debate. It’s fact. It’s in the damn law. It’s in the bill. Why is it then? If you want to have a measure as to who is or who is not MAGA or who is or who is not enforcing an agenda, why can’t we use that as the metric? No, because they don’t want you to call them out on the fact that they’re Bush League spenders is why. They don’t want you to call them out on the fact that they’re spending money even as good as Barack Obama. So they try to deflect. Oh, but the primary, which has absolutely nothing to do with this. The hell does the primary in 2024 have to do with the fact that you all are standing for spending on Joe Biden’s Green News scam? What does Ron DeSantis have to do with you, Marjorie Taylor Greene, wanting to spend our hard earned tax? I look, I know that you made twenty two million dollars when you got into Congress. But why the hell do we got to foot the bill for Biden’s Green News scam so that you can cosplay as being MAGA? Why? I’m so tired of this stuff. Tell me then, why are you taxing Social Security? Was that not a campaign promise? Hell, I heard it. Did you all hear it? Because I heard it. So now you’re going to get mad at the people who actually want to make these campaign promises into reality? But Ron DeSantis, what the hell does Ron DeSantis have to do with you wanting to vote to tax Social Security? Oh, you want to use it as a dodge? You want to hide behind it? Do you think it’s more MAGA to actually deliver on the promise of not taxing Social Security? Or is it less MAGA on not delivering on the promise of taxing Social Security? I don’t know. Maybe y’all can tell me. What about taxing retired military pay? Is that not a campaign promise? I’m so tired of this stuff. I’m so tired of it. But that’s what everybody goes back to. They all go back to that. Oh, well, let’s. Oh, it’s something something to Santa’s. What the hell does that have to do with anything? Explain to me how funding the Green News scam has anything to do with Ron DeSantis. I’m going to tell you something that’s happening right now. There is a major operation underway and not just in Florida, but in every state to kneecap every real conservative fiscal hawk out there. And there is a major there’s some things I can’t even talk to you about that I one day will just. Know this. One day I’m going to burn everybody and I’m going to tell everybody’s little secret and I’m going to rat on all these sons of bitches in a giant tell-all. That’s going to happen someday. I’m not saying when. And I will say, if anything should ever happen to me, there is a draft and it’ll go public immediately. So just so you know. Because I’m tired of all this stuff, there’s a major operation underway where they’re trying to do that in Florida. They’re trying to kneecap. You got this hot headed, termed out lawmaker who’s trying to audition for a job somewhere that’s working with a far left Soros back prosecutor to create the sham investigation into Hope, Florida. This is one example. This is happening everywhere. One example. They had a prosecutor. They’re like, oh, well, we’re going to look into Hope, Florida. What happened, apparently, according to reports, and I’m going to link this in the Substack piece coming out. They had that Alex Andrade guy. You guys know him. He’s the one who apparently got his butt whipped in a bar fight. And he’s just a hot mess. He threatened to fight my husband. I’m like, well, I saw your first black eye. I don’t know how many more you want. He actually did a sitting lawmaker. My husband and I were like, what? Is he on meth? Like, what’s happening? But… Apparently, Florida got a Centene Medicaid settlement, and then from that settlement, they gave… Part of that settlement money to Hope Florida. And Hope Florida, as you know, is the portal that was created from that that facilitates the partnership between private and public. They’ve saved taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars. That is not even an exaggeration. They have saved taxpayers a ton of dollars. They’ve saved a lot of resources because charitable organizations can step in instead of having government welfare. They have charitable organizations that step in. They have all kinds of testimonies. They publish everything. They’re incredibly transparent. Nobody’s getting rich off this. But the problem is, is that it negates the need to expand special interest, which means more special interest money. And that’s what it all comes down to. Cha-ching. And so they keep lying about it and they’re trying to do some Letitia James lawfare. And so they kept saying, oh, well, that’s somehow what they did was crooked. It wasn’t they weren’t spending Medicaid money. It was a settlement of restitution from this private company that was accused of overbilling everybody. And the money went to the state and the state directed it to support these programs so that they can reduce taxpayer burden. And that’s exactly what it is. And they’re not using consultants. They’re not using K Street stuff. And that’s the problem. And so you have a guy who represents a faction of people that can’t stand Ron DeSantis because he thinks that his very existence poses a threat to everyone else. And that’s why you get this petty little lawfare. That’s what’s happening in Florida right now. They’re fighting even property tax. They’re fighting any kind of Second Amendment measures, any kind of property tax relief, anything, so long as DeSantis supports it. What does that sound like? It sounds like if Trump supports something, the media hates it. Even if it would be a cure for AIDS, the media would hate it. Sounds real familiar, right? Because they’re all leftists. They’re all leftists. So tired of this stuff. We have a lot more on the way. I got headlines coming up. With All Family Pharmacy, convenience is everything. And they make it so simple.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s Quick Five.
SPEAKER 23 :
So apparently the United States is the biggest scammer and spammer in the world, and it’s only going to get worse. The U.S. generates 57 percent of the global scam, according to some analysis. They said that data centers make spam enforcement harder and threats worse. I bet half of it are the bots on X that are being like, you should vote for green new scam. I’m telling you, just saying. So. The U.S. has a spam problem. Los Angeles barbershop is blasting Baby Shark to ward off the homeless. Hmm. Well, I mean, if they’re doing drugs and stuff, I don’t want that out there. I don’t want drugs and feces out there or anything. It’s called Shalom Styles. Or no, Shalom Styles is the CEO of Styles Barber Lounge. They told KTLA that his ongoing efforts to protect his shop, they’ve got to play Baby Shark because they got cracked glass and they said that they got surveillance videos and… Some of it is crime. Some of it’s, you know, they’re worried about drugs. So they have been playing Baby Shark nonstop outside to keep people away. They said that he had to tell a naked woman to leave. He found her on the bench in front of his barbershop, just buck naked, screaming at the top of her lungs. Yeah. And the guy goes, well, he hopes the city’s going to try harder. Really? You hope? Yeah, you’re going to be playing Baby Shark for a long time, hoping that… Let’s see. For $100 an hour, private MTA subway guards are holding doors open for fare beaters and people sleeping on the job. What? Yeah, private security guards that the MTA had to hire. They act as deterrents, but instead they’ve been helping them. They have security guards showing them holding open doors for people to let people trying to dodge fare through. I mean… I mean, you know, what did you think was going to happen? I’m actually just saying restaurant tipping rules are quietly changing and service charges could rise. Well, why is that? I mean, I thought we had they got no tax. Everybody else gets taxed six ways to Sunday, including the fry cooks. But hey, you know. Not that they said that service charges could rise and it all becomes it. All of this has to do with they’re saying, oh, it’s the cost of living in the UK. Particularly, they’re really raising fees when you go out to eat. Now they got like like almost 13 percent service charges they’ve been adding on their bills. That’s going to go up to 20 to 25 percent over there. Imagine you sit down to eat dinner in the UK if you’re traveling and you got a 20% service charge on top. That’s insane. That’s absolutely insane. We have a lot more on the way, including some of the latest with not just what’s in this big, beautiful bill. We got some culture and more. Stick with us. Hey, folks.

SPEAKER 05 :
Keep your finger on the pulse with the Dana Show podcast, delivering timely news with insightful analysis. Whenever you want, straight to you on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts.
SPEAKER 09 :
But I’m going to ask you, what so a well-justified fear of persecution?
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, they thought that their farms were being burned down and they would be killed. I think that’s a pretty good justification for wanting to come. They’re afraid for their lives. And should it be applied in an even-handed way? That’s an easy question. Our foreign policy doesn’t require even-handedness. It requires prioritizing the interests of the United States.
SPEAKER 09 :
But the statutory phrase says you are entitled to entrance as a refugee if you demonstrate a well-justified fear of persecution.
SPEAKER 08 :
No, no, you’re not entitled, you’re allowed.
SPEAKER 09 :
So could you have a different standard based upon the color of somebody’s skin?
SPEAKER 08 :
Would that be acceptable? Well, I’m not the one arguing that. Apparently you are, because you don’t like the fact that they’re white, and that’s why they’re coming. No, I’m just asking you to say that that would be unacceptable. Well, no, I would say that the United States… That would seem to be a very easy thing to say. The United States has a right to pick and choose who they allow into the United States. Even based on the color of somebody’s skin, you’re saying? You’re the one that’s talking about the color of their skin, not me. These are people whose farms were being burned down and they were killed because of the color of their skin.
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, I’m… Tim Kaine sounds pretty racist. Yeah. He’s like, again, from Mean Girls, so if you’re from Africa, why are you white? Oh my gosh, Karen, you just don’t ask somebody why they’re white. That’s Tim Kaine. Tim Kaine looks like a character from Mystery Science Theater.
SPEAKER 18 :
He does, actually.
SPEAKER 23 :
Doesn’t he? Like the bad scientist guy? He looks like that.
SPEAKER 18 :
The disheveled bad scientist, yeah.
SPEAKER 23 :
Can you… Okay, I just realized something. He is… almost a different version, a different dimensional version of, what’s his face?
SPEAKER 18 :
Tim Walls.
SPEAKER 23 :
Tim Walls, yeah.
SPEAKER 18 :
I knew where you were going with that because it’s true.
SPEAKER 23 :
Think about that. My mind, oh, whoa. Hold up. Guys, I think that there’s a tear somehow in the space-time continuum because you have two versions of Tim Walls that are existing in the same dimension, ours. Tim Kaine is crazy. I feel like I’m going to need the oh, oh now, too. Oh, yeah?
SPEAKER 15 :
That part?
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, I’m going to need that as well. Oh, my goodness. Yeah, he’s a little… They’re weird. He’s the same guy. And also, is everybody in their damn party named Tim? Right. So it reminds me of my youngest son when he was really little. He loved sharks and bugs and he’s a boy. But he had a million stuffed sharks. A million stuffed shark animals. Sometimes they were like plushy sharks. Sometimes they were like plastic. And they were all named Tim. he i’m not even exaggerating it’s a total honest truth hands to sky he named all of them tim every shark was named tim he’s like three or four every shark was named tim and it just kind of reminds me you know this it’s just it’s weird right it’s it’s very similar like they’re all named tim it’s like the bill paxton’s bill pullman’s
SPEAKER 18 :
Yes, that’s exactly what it is.
SPEAKER 23 :
Tim Kaine is like Tim Waltz, but like slightly dehydrated. Same thing, right? Yeah, it’s just I don’t know. I just find him crazy. He’s crazy. All right. So he was asking about those South African refugees. Like, do you have a different standard based on the color of someone’s skin? Well, let’s see here. I don’t know. They’re like burning them literally in their fields and drowning their babies in buckets. So I don’t know. You tell me. The expropriation and all of the laws that they’ve passed since and it’s all statutory now is literally goes after people based on skin color. So I don’t know. Maybe you tell me. Just thinking. Just thinking. It’s never going to end. We live in the stupidest time right now. And we’re fighting over the big, beautiful bill. Which isn’t beautiful. We’re fighting over the bill. Oh, did you see what I… Pentagon announced that it accepted the jet from Qatar. How do you feel about that?
SPEAKER 18 :
I feel fine about it. Why?
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, we’re reusing a Qatari jet.
SPEAKER 18 :
You think our military is not going to strip that thing down and check it out?
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, but still, I think for the optics of it.
SPEAKER 18 :
Do you know who manufactured that plane?
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, I know who manufactured that plane. But I just feel like the Qataris are buying too much.
SPEAKER 18 :
What do you mean?
SPEAKER 23 :
I feel like the Qataris are spending tons of money to buy stuff here in the U.S. of A. To buy influence.
SPEAKER 18 :
So if you were to guess the amount of money, say, the Qatari government, for that matter, would have money or access to, how much do you think that would be?
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, I was actually looking at my notes because I was reading about this. About $100 billion. Yeah.
SPEAKER 18 :
Yeah, that’s a 400 million dollar plane. I think that I think there’s a lot of people here that see that and know because of Trump’s first term that he isn’t playing around. He isn’t the standard American politician they’ve dealt with for the last decades.
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, if we’re funding the Green News scam and taxing Social Security, I mean, that’s almost meaningless to me.
SPEAKER 18 :
Right. But we didn’t pay for this plane.
SPEAKER 23 :
So we’re going to pay to strip it down.
SPEAKER 18 :
But if the complaint is about the money being spent, then there’s no complaint here.
SPEAKER 23 :
What do we have to give Qatar for use of this thing?
SPEAKER 18 :
I haven’t heard anything. Did they ask for something?
SPEAKER 23 :
I don’t know. Did they?
SPEAKER 18 :
No one said. So that means that it didn’t happen. Wait, so that means that it did happen then?
SPEAKER 23 :
I was asking the question. I know, me too. So what do they get out of it? Because is that typical for the Qataris, though?
SPEAKER 18 :
But you can’t point to what they’re supposed to be getting.
SPEAKER 23 :
I can’t point to a conversation that says that they asked— You’re telling me that the Qataris did this out of the goodness of their heart because they just love the U.S.?
SPEAKER 18 :
I didn’t say anything close to that. I just said that they understand now the global dynamics with Trump in charge, and they’re paying favor. And that’s exactly what they’re doing.
SPEAKER 23 :
And it’s not a $40 million. It’s a $400 million.
SPEAKER 18 :
Yeah, that’s what I said.
SPEAKER 23 :
Boeing 747-800. The $40 million one, that was the money that the Clintons gave back in the day to… The airplane deal, according to the Free Press, was signed off by Pam Bondi, and she worked at the lobbying firm that got $115,000 a month from Qatar to fight human trafficking. That’s according to a 2019 contract. And then you also have some people that worked with the Qatar embassy in D.C., Worked as a consultant for Qatar. There’s also, well, Wyckoff, he’s special envoy to the Middle East. He’s got some alliances with Qatar there with the Sovereign Wealth Fund that helped him out of an investment for New York’s Park Lane for about almost half a billion. And then I just have a lot of questions. Because Qatar literally helped facilitate and finance the killings of American soldiers. They backed Hezbollah. Hamas lives there. Hamas lives in Qatar. They live in grand palaces in Qatar. They’re very, very cozy. And they love Hamas. They really are into fundamentalism. From everything that’s publicly available, there’s a lot of questions.
SPEAKER 18 :
Didn’t they just get new leadership or am I wrong?
SPEAKER 23 :
That’s Saudi Arabia. Not somewhat new. Saudi Arabia. It’s about over 10 years now with the new crown prince over there. So Qatar’s question is a little bit different. I can understand the concern.
SPEAKER 18 :
I can understand the concern. I don’t on the surface see an issue with it because it’s going to our military. We’re definitely going to strip it down. Everything’s great. Boeing was the one who manufactured it. This was a deal that was done under Biden before Trump even got into office. So
SPEAKER 23 :
I don’t see that makes it even more suspect for me. So we’re like, well, Biden did it. So, well, wait a minute.
SPEAKER 18 :
No, no, I didn’t say Biden did. It just started under Biden’s administration.
SPEAKER 23 :
So that makes it OK.
SPEAKER 18 :
No. Also, by the way, Trump has ordered from Boeing. How many years has it been since the order of Air Force One?
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, I completely agree with you on that.
SPEAKER 18 :
You know what I mean? Yeah, I totally agree with you on that. So I’m seeing this as Trump’s like, all right, now I haven’t gotten anything from Boeing.
SPEAKER 23 :
He was in Palm Beach viewing a plane from, and I can’t remember the name of that manufacturer. It’s an American manufacturer, though. But he was at Palm Beach International Airport. Just at the start of the year, viewing that plane. And I don’t know if that worked or didn’t work for whatever reason. So they’re going with this one. But I’m worried about the optics of it. I’m worried about what they expect out of it because it’s $400 million plus.
SPEAKER 18 :
so i you know in france we gave us the statue of liberty that was a big deal the gift from another country you know what i mean yeah but they literally also like that was to celebrate them going almost bankrupt and financing right and i think that this is kind of uh where cutters killed ourselves yeah from cutter’s way of actually saying this is they were changed this is this is a new day for us this is a different this is just them expressing that as well
SPEAKER 23 :
I’ve got a lot of concerns over the optics because there was another alternative.
SPEAKER 18 :
Yes, absolutely. Concerns on the optics, that’s great. But I want to see that issue first before I start saying, look at all this. Look at the problem. There’s no problems here. I haven’t seen any problems. So as soon as one comes up, I’ll be like, oh, boy, we were duped on that one, wasn’t it? But I don’t anticipate what the problem would be. What are you suggesting the problem would be by us taking this plane?
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, it’s Qatar and they finance terrorism.
SPEAKER 18 :
But what do you suspect will happen? Let’s say the worst case scenario that you have in your head. What is that?
SPEAKER 23 :
Oh, I don’t want to give it words. Oh, I don’t want anything to happen to the leader of the free world on a Qatari jet. I just, it weirds me out.
SPEAKER 18 :
The military will be stripping this.
SPEAKER 23 :
You mean the same military that’s not completely reformed yet, that Mark Milley was telling everybody to read DEI books, that one?
SPEAKER 18 :
No, it’s a different one.
SPEAKER 23 :
The one that left 13 service members behind in Kabul, that one?
SPEAKER 18 :
You have a great memory, but it’s a different military.
SPEAKER 23 :
Is it really different? It’s not totally different yet.
SPEAKER 18 :
It’s not really, though.
SPEAKER 23 :
It really isn’t. I mean, no for a fact, it’s not really yet. I mean, they’re trying to make… I grant you that. They’re trying to make changes.
SPEAKER 18 :
I would say that the bulk… But is it different yet? I don’t know. I would say that the bulk of the military has always been great. It’s just that we saw the surface…
SPEAKER 23 :
from i just don’t like it i don’t think we need to be doing this with this jet i just i’ve got doing what taking this jet at all taking this jet at all i don’t i don’t like it it weirds me out it weirds me out i don’t care that’s the bottom line it weirds me out and i think it’s a bad optic i’m like oh that’s it oh thanks bad optic appreciate it so yeah yeah you know i’m worried i guess i’m worried about it guess i’m worried about it by the way can someone tell me why biden said that prior to friday the president had never been diagnosed with prostate cancer That’s what apparently… This was yesterday. Hang on. That… Yeah. So they said, oh, he underwent a common prostate cancer screening in 2014. Now, those screenings, from what I understand, they denied that it was diagnosed earlier. And they said that exactly how I guess it was published is how it happened. And we all know that that’s not true. So I really… because that they said that he had not had a screening since 2014 and we know that he actually had a full checkup a year ago so that’s a lie they don’t even have their story straight they actually said that that was actually a statement that they made yesterday 18 hours ago and wasn’t there something in 2020 as we’re leading up to the election also that the democrats did or put out on joe biden’s health or mental acuity or something i’ll have to go back and look but i remember that leading up to the 2020 election I don’t remember. They said that his last known PSA was 2014. But again, they also said that he had a full thorough checkup a year ago. And they said that the U.S. Preventative Services Task Force, they said that for because the test has a has false positives. But they said, oh, well, they, you know, just maybe once a year, you know, 70 and older or whatever. I don’t believe that he didn’t have it. I think that they hit it because he’s not an everyday person. He was president of the United States of America. And they will make and Ronnie Jackson, full disclosure, I know him. He’s a friend of mine. They go through all of these tests. They and they do it regularly. I mean, at least annually. And if there’s any kind of other health concern, they monitor the president’s health very, very closely. And I like Ronny Jackson. A lot of people think, oh, he’s such a conservative firebrand. But he calls balls and shots, you know, like literally when he was people were saying Michelle Obama had some. He was like, no, she doesn’t. I was the White House doctor. Come on. And he’s very straightforward and honest about it. And he’s also like, yes, POTUS is, you know, Trump is in great health, et cetera, et cetera. But he also says that that’s he’s like, that’s this is nonsense. It’s nonsense that to think that the president of the United States for an ailment that affects men of that. Demographic and the prevalence of it and the increase, there’s no way that he did not get regular screenings of this. And yeah, Cain has that. This is 2019. Well, he had a full thing like a year ago, but even in 2019, you know, he released his health records and he had another full markup. I mean, that’s every average everyday people.
SPEAKER 18 :
He was out there like challenging people to push up contests and stuff. Remember this? Like it was a big deal.
SPEAKER 23 :
It is. I’m not president of the United States, but I’m obsessive about my health. Like I literally have like two blood draws a year. I monitor everything, every level, everything. I do full panels of everything. And I want to know the moment something is out of whack, what I got to do to be preventative, etc. You know, I eat everything. you know, super clean, all of that stuff. You got to be careful what you imbibe, even down to like moisturizers and stuff you put on your skin. But that’s a whole other story. My point is, is that I’m just a regular person. I’m not president of the United States. And I know other people similarly who do the same thing. I mean, my gosh, you all take supplements and you go to your regular well visits. You’re telling me that Biden, they’re trying to argue Biden didn’t do any of that. Oh, that’s why it’s a surprise we didn’t know. This came after they were throwing his doctor under the bus yesterday. So I don’t believe any of this. None of this. They hit it and now they’re trying to hide it still. We have every right to ask these questions. And like I said at the top of the show, the fact that Hunter Biden was sitting in on cabinet meetings and that he was traveling with him everywhere, even after all that stuff happened. This was even in the last year of Biden’s presidency. Guys, he was there babysitting him because they knew it was bad. There’s no other way to unpack that.

SPEAKER 23 :
So the media is going all in on saying that all of the stuff that Trump played in the Oval Office is fake. I am not even exaggerating it. I’m not exaggerating it. You had the the agriculture minister of South Africa stand right there. He was right there in the Oval Office and he confirmed it in front of every reporter there that it absolutely is happening. Furthermore, Ramaphosa signed that law about the expropriation of land. He signed that into effect just earlier this year. That’s a fact. So now you have NBC and ABC that have said that it’s fake. That it was fake. Yeah, he’s promoting a false claim of white genocide in the country. And as you can imagine, when you click the link and read the article, it’s even more insane. It’s absolutely insane. So this is what the media is doing. They’re now running. Oh, I can’t believe I’m going. This isn’t Godwin’s law to say that’s Nazi level propaganda. effort right there. I got to tell you.
SPEAKER 18 :
Well, it doesn’t end because in today’s stupidity, CNN even took it further. They’re so pro-white genocide that this is what they had to say. Juan, go ahead and play this.
SPEAKER 01 :
Explaining that this is not true. What the videos show is Julius Malema, the far-left opposition leader of South Africa. His part is called the Economic Freedom Fighters. And it also showed former President Jacob Zuma.
SPEAKER 18 :
The white farmer.
SPEAKER 01 :
What’s Julius Malema was singing, Kill the Boar, Kill the Farmer. It was an anti-apartheid song from the struggle against white minority rule in South Africa.
SPEAKER 23 :
Yeah, because I normally say, like, kill people when I’m just singing a protest song.
SPEAKER 18 :
So it was mostly peaceful genocide. Mostly peaceful genocide. It was mostly peaceful genocide, basically.
