SPEAKER 13 :
I wanted to let the city know that I have declared a local emergency and issued a curfew for downtown Los Angeles to stop the vandalism, to stop the looting. Many businesses have now been affected by or vandalized. Last night there were 23 businesses that were looted and I think that if you drive through Downtown LA, the graffiti is everywhere and has caused significant damages to businesses and a number of properties.
SPEAKER 20 :
Yeah, we probably could have told you that that was coming, that that was going to happen. I mean, yes, it caused a lot of… I mean, I’ve seen a lot of storefronts that have been spray painted and windows busted out. There was looting because nothing says… balancing out the imbalance of justice by, you know, you gotta loot some sneaks, yo. I’m just saying, it’s what… me just saying welcome to the show daniel ash with you we’re at the top of this first hour we got the stream today everything will be back to normal by monday uh but juan is traveling for a joyous family occasion and we’re a very small crew here so we uh it’s uh audio only but that just means that we can you know we could be a little crazier and we don’t have to worry about you know juan trying to tamp it juan trying to bring class to the joint wait oh wait you didn’t know that Kane just gotten very nervous. So the ongoing riots and violence I saw. OK, first off, I’m going to I’m going to get to everything. But I legit saw video yesterday of some dude hitting a police horse like he had. I don’t know what kind of stick it was. It was it like a special stick. It looked like a professional stick. Does that make sense? It wasn’t like a stick. Someone went to retrieve. from their yard, you know? Like if you go, go get me a stick, you go get some like branch. No, this was like a whittled pro stick. And he was beating this police horse, right, with this stick. And obviously that’s a big no-no. And also because horses are awesome. Well, the lady cop or the, yes, police officer, she was a lady and I feel like this is important. Because she grabbed that stick from him and beat his burp with it on video. And I’m not going to tell you how many times I watched it. because it was very satisfying to see something like that. Like how you cut things evenly when you’re cutting food, and you’re like, wow, that’s an even cut. That’s an even slice. I did really good. You get the first slice of pie out of the dish, and it doesn’t fall apart, and you’re like, I am a master. It’s the same level of satisfaction I got repeatedly watching her beat him over and over and over and over again as I played continuously the video back. But that just, I mean, what is the point of beating the police horse, that poor horse? The horse is okay, by the way, if you’re concerned. The horse is all right. But still, I just was kind of, I mean, it was a guy with a state. He just walked up, walked up and went that way, just decided to mess around and Then find out. And so there were a lot of people that were arrested last night. These have spread to Colorado, several different places. There were some more in Dallas. But Dallas is very different. I think that they’ve clamped down on it pretty quick. Now, Austin, that’s another story. Austin’s very not the same. But they I think they tamped it down pretty quickly, because if you remember that after the BLM riots, March start, it was a March riot. I don’t know. But after that. They I’m pretty sure I’m speculating here that they changed their standard operating procedure. Now they tamp that stuff down pretty quick. They were tear gassing people yesterday. They were not even messing around. They just got tear gassed. You’re blocking the road because it’s a crime. You can’t block the roads here in Texas. You can’t and you shouldn’t do it just out of courtesy, which comes to my point of this. I think this is Republican campaign footage for forever. But it’s a woman. She’s a mother. And she’s this is audio somebody 33. She’s trying to get to work. Now, let me set up the context since we’re audio only today. So you have a young black mother and she’s getting in her car in the morning. She’s going to go to work. And she is surrounded, because this is important to the left, she is surrounded by white progressive Marxists who are out in the streets protesting in favor of open borders. And they are not letting her go to work. They act rude to her. They’re patronizing. Listen to this.
SPEAKER 21 :
How is this a peaceful protest if there’s nothing to do?
SPEAKER 17 :
How do all these white people feel about stopping a black woman
SPEAKER 24 :
from going to work. Oh, no, not work. I care so much. So you don’t care about stopping black people from going to work?
SPEAKER 17 :
Look at this line that you guys are causing. I’m not posing no problem.
SPEAKER 20 :
Did you see it? It was a white Marxist hippie who was like, oh, no, not work. He was such a jerk. He was such a jerk wagon. I don’t even know what to call him. And he was mocking her. And the little Marxist was like, no, you’re not going anywhere. How is this not involuntary detention? I’m going to break your teeth. If you detain me against my will, involuntary detain me, I’m going to break all your teeth off and you’re going to eat them and you’re going to defecate them out like corn the next day. That’s what’s going to happen, guaranteed. Because you’re holding me against my will. It’s kidnapping. And that woman had her kids in the car. So think about it. This lady, she’s got to go to work. She’s got her kids in the car. And that means she’s probably got to take them to school or daycare. She’s got another stop to make before she gets to work. Time is of the essence. And these idiots will not move for her. That is just that’s a great look for you, Democrats. A great look for Democrats there. And there’s tons of these. There are so many videos like this where people are. And what gets me, I told you yesterday, the Hispanic mother who was surrounded, her car was surrounded. And I hate to say it on these lines, but again, it’s important to the left. They’re all white Marxists. All of them. I maybe saw it. I see. I mean, I see. Definitely. I see some some Mexicans and those who go on camera and say that they’re here illegally. And I see maybe some black protesters. But I have to tell you, every single one of the videos that I’ve seen where the car is surrounded and they’re not letting the people leave when they pull their mask down to talk, they’re all white Marxists. So I don’t know about that. Maybe everybody else is busting up stores and stuff and these people are tasked with preventing people from moving. I don’t know. But it is really something. Really something. So this is not a great move for them. And I’m not really sure what they think is going to come from stuff like this. Because you can’t, you can’t, this is not persuading anybody. Now, Karen Bass, as you heard, she’s finally declaring curfews. We’re day six, right? Day six. Day six. And she said that the downtown area of Los Angeles is going to be a no-go zone from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. for the week after people were looting everything. Officers were getting attacked again last night. And she said, if you don’t live or work there, you will be arrested and prosecuted for breaking curfew. This is how bad it’s getting, that they actually have to do this now. And this, they, of course, she had to blame it on Trump still. That’s still what they’re doing, blaming it on Trump, which I’m not quite sure why. But that’s, you know, that’s what they were doing. And I mean, maybe there have been like a handful of arrests, but I don’t think There have been enough, honestly. I don’t think there’s been enough that’s happened that has dissuaded anyone. There’s no penalties. And people know that there’s no penalties. They know there’s no penalty. They know this. So I don’t know. It’s just wild to see it. And it’s wild to see if Trump would not have… sent in the Marines to protect federal buildings, if he wouldn’t have called on the Guard, they wouldn’t have done anything. The only reason that they’re even calling for a curfew is because Trump was trying to implement some law and order when they wouldn’t. That’s the only reason. You know how much this is going to cost, by the way, to deploy all of this? So according to Defense News, The 5,000 National Guard troops and the Marines is going to cost $134 million. That is the acting comptroller for the Pentagon. He told lawmakers this in a hearing that was just yesterday. It’s coming from the Defense Department’s operations and maintenance budget. They’re covering travel and housing and food and incidentals. And this was a House Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense hearing. This is the bill that is being incurred by rioters. So taxpayers now are having to pay $134 million for California. For California. Because California can’t get it together. I think we should be able to send an invoice to these people. To pay this because they’re and that’s not even getting into what local taxpayers are going to pay for local policing and additionally clean up and all of that other stuff because you know that they’re having to do that. So that’s where the funding is coming from. There have been 4000 National Guard troops approved 700 active duty Marines that have been heading to Los Angeles and the Marines are protecting federal immigration officials and federal property. And what gets me is after everything’s been set on fire, after all of this, that’s when Democrats say, oh, now it’s been escalated, which is asinine, but here we are. So that’s $134 million of our defense budget going to this. And, oh, we can just put this in too, because I had this mention of this, Scott Besson, Treasury Secretary said, He apparently was he noted that Gavin Newsom was going to stop California tax payments to the federal government. So he wants to further defraud. The American taxpayer, Gavin Newsom. This is what Republicans need to be seizing on. I mean, to be able to say that you’re not going to pay in, pay your fair share to the federal system. I don’t know. And Cain notes he doesn’t know how salt works. No, he clearly doesn’t know how salt works. I mean, that alone should make you… I mean, that’s enough to make you livid for the rest of the day. But that’s what we’re looking at. Now… In addition to all of this, Newsom held a – well, it was in a press conference. What was it? Like an address? He gave an address yesterday. I don’t know what you would call it because it was really bad. I thought the production quality was very bad. Am I being – it looked bad. It was like fuzzy and didn’t like break up at one point. He held a – not again a press conference. He gave an address and he said that – You know, Trump was traumatizing the area in his address and that he’s going to California is going to fight on behalf of all the people. Audio 7 by 6. I think you’ve done enough fighting. Listen.
SPEAKER 16 :
Way enough fighting. California will keep fighting. We’ll keep fighting on behalf of our people, all of our people, including in the courts.
SPEAKER 20 :

A bison gored a dude yesterday after a large group of visitors got too close. They’re not supposed to. The 30-year-old was treated for minor injuries after he was gored around 9.45 a.m. in the Old Faithful area. His name and condition wasn’t released. It’s not fatal, is all we know. He’s the second person already gored this spring. A 47-year-old from Cape Coral. florida had minor injuries after he was gored in the lake village area on may 7th now last year bison gored two other people one of whom was an 83 year old woman from southern south carolina who was seriously injured and the other woman was an arizona woman so it’s almost like in the past several years two people get picked to get gored because it’s literally been two people every year since 2021 i root for the bison i’m not gonna lie You can’t like get near them.

President Trump sends the National Guard to L.A. because the Democrats there refuse to stop the rioters. The media downplay violence, defend criminal illegals, and demonize ICE as usual. And immigrant citizens shift 40 points towards the Republicans after four years of Joe Biden. Ha! I wonder why.

SPEAKER 05 :
But they proudly carry the flags of other countries, but they don’t carry the American flag. They only burn it. Did you see a lot of the flags being burned? They weren’t being burned by people from our country or from people that love our country. People that burn the American flag should go to jail for one year. That’s what they should be doing. One year. I will see if we can get that done. We’re going to try and get that done. We’re working with some of your senators. I know Senator Josh Hawley is very much involved. And I know the two senators from here.
SPEAKER 20 :
Of course Josh Hawley is involved in that. I mean, Josh Hawley just proposed raising the minimum wage federally mandatory. So, yeah, of course. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash, with you. They’re starting to charge people in California, by the way. Now, again, I’m going to preface this by saying that you can like someone and not agree with everything that they say. I shouldn’t have to say this every time I’m about to not agree, but here it is. No, I don’t think that you need to add an extra penalty on for burning the flag, and here’s why. Because burning things in public is already illegal. Burning someone else’s property is already illegal. Arson is already illegal. If you purchase something and decide to set it on fire, If it’s your property, you’re not hurting other people. If it’s a smaller object, you can set it on fire. If I wanted to buy a Katy Perry album and set it on fire, which why would I do that? But you know what I mean? Then I could, right? Because then she would already have my money. That’s what it’s like. It doesn’t make any sense. I get it that it’s like a red meat piece of red meat to throw out. But I’m like, what does it accomplish? I just think it’s you know, and I’m I also think we have free speech. And I like when people advertise how stupid they are because I love for them to do that service for me. It prevents me from having to exert effort at telling you how dumb they are when they just voluntarily freely of their own will show you how stupid they are, you know. So I’m all for that because it saves you energy that you can use to like go out to dinner with your your spouse and hang out with your kids and, you know, relax by the pool. Maybe go down to 30 a, you know, live the big life, go to visit Panama City, go, you know, whatever. But whatever, Florida, whatever, you know. But I just don’t think something like this, that’s just not… And like I said, I get it. I get it. It’s about throwing some red meat to the base. But when you’re destroying something that you bought, that doesn’t really qualify. And if you’re destroying other people’s property, well, that’s already a crime, right? It’s already a crime. I mean, it’s… I think the question is the flag is just a variable in this. It should be, you know, can someone take something, whether it’s theirs or not, and set it on fire in a public space with the hopes of perhaps causing property damage or inciting a riot? Because the flag then becomes a variable in that in that equation. I mean, I think that there’s… It’s not based on a law that’s ever actually performed well or something that’s been defended in court. But it’s just to get a reaction. It’s a statement to get a reaction. And of course, Josh Hawley’s like, Yeah! Well, for this, what else can we do that’s big government? Hey, how about we pay women to have babies? Because welfare works! Wait, what? I’m dissatisfied with him right now. We’ll get back to that. The… Other big issue. Hold up. Let me pull this up. Because I said that they’re starting to charge people. They’re giving a press conference right now, LAPD. Do you guys remember LaMonica McIver? I think you had too many little laws and mix in front of your name. LaMonica McIver. Remember her? She’s a Democrat from New Jersey. She’s in Congress. And she was with Who was it? I think the mayor of Newark. And this was when they were at this ICE facility. This was like way back in May. So do you remember when they went to this ICE facility in Newark, New Jersey? And they started shoving and pushing. And then she’s literally on video hitting an ICE agent. I mean, they about damn near had a riot. It turned into a fight. I swear I heard someone yell world star, but maybe I didn’t. So she literally was hitting multiple ICE agents and these Democrats were trying to shove through and they were being very physical and very violent. Now, I think it was the mayor. I can’t remember his name. It’s not important. The mayor of Newark got arrested. And this… This whole thing, it was her. I’m trying to remember the two other House Democrats because there were four total. Anyway, she was the one who was like throwing the punches essentially. And now it looks like she’s going to face charges. She was indicted yesterday by a federal grand jury for this. And. It could be it was a three count felony indictment and she could go from the house in D.C. to the big house in New Jersey. OK, so it was Rob Menendez and Bonnie Coleman. There was the other three, along with the Newark mayor, Ross Baraka. And there’s McIver’s elbowing, throwing elbows, all this. And she kept saying that she was the one who was assaulted. But video doesn’t support that at all. So now she’s she’s indicted on three felony counts. Now, this is where it is a test of that Democrat mantra that they only situationally uphold. Is this is this another example of their everybody’s going to be equal before the law? I mean, the way that they were defending themselves, they were just doing their jobs. They were just trying to go see what was happening at this facility where they were housing illegal immigrants. They were just trying to do their jobs. I was told that that was an insurrection, not somebody trying to do their jobs. I mean, that’s what I was told. So they tried to storm this facility. It’s the Delaney Detention Hall. If you… were to break in, like if Cain were to go there and try to do the same thing, he would be arrested. He wouldn’t be sitting here. He wouldn’t have any kind of special consideration. He would be arrested. And I would think that if you’re a member of Congress, particularly, then you have, I don’t know, maybe kind of a special obligation to perhaps follow the law, right? And you would know what that law is, right? Especially if you talked forever and ever about J6. Wouldn’t you know what the law is? I’m just very curious. Very curious. So this is going to be interesting. We’re going to see if this is actually going to stick. Now, a couple of other things. We told you that Gavin Newsom had his little address. He really is posturing and trying to use this as a publicity vehicle. And he got into a back and forth with Trump. This was from yesterday. Audio somebody to Trump said that he had called Newsom and Newsom lied. And then Trump literally produced the screenshot proving that he had called Gavin Newsom. Listen to this.
SPEAKER 15 :
When is the last time you spoke with Governor Newsom?
SPEAKER 05 :
Hmm. a day ago, called him up to tell him got to do a better job. He’s doing a bad job, causing a lot of death and a lot of a lot of potential death. If we didn’t send out the National Guard and last time we gave him a little additional help, you would have Los Angeles would be burning right now. Los Angeles would be not a lot different than what you saw take place in California and Los Angeles just a little while ago.
SPEAKER 20 :
Mm hmm. Mm hmm. That’s true. And he said that he called him. Newsom said he didn’t. And then Trump produced the screenshot showing, yes, he absolutely did call. Why would you lie about that, by the way? Because, you know, Trump is, you know, one of the things, you know, he’s going to do is say this. He’s going to take a screenshot of the call. Audio sent by four. This is from that address where Newsom looked like he was coked out of his mind. By the way, how many times can I just ask? Sorry to interrupt myself. That dude did not blink. Cocaine. Anyway, go ahead and play this.
SPEAKER 16 :
Donald Trump’s government isn’t protecting our communities. They’re traumatizing our communities. And that seems to be the entire point. When Donald Trump sought blanket authority to commandeer the National Guard, he made that order apply to every state in this nation. This is about all of us. This is about you. California may be first, but it clearly will not end here. Other states are next. Democracy is next. Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment is under assault before our eyes.
SPEAKER 20 :
Is it, though? I mean, wait, who’s it under assault by? I’m curious. Who is it under assault by? yeah i but but but like not the people that have been doing the burning and etc and all this stuff i’m just curious curious curious but they kind of go they gloss over that they totally gloss over that so in addition to this let’s see here we’ve also got uh trying to get the gosh i don’t care about this why is this it’s like popping open in addition to this stuff we also have this is audio soundbite uh five so this is also from his address here where he’s i don’t know what case he thinks he’s making it’s not doing it’s not doing it listen
SPEAKER 16 :
When Donald Trump sought blanket authority to commandeer the National Guard, he made that order apply to every state in this nation. This is about all of us. This is about you. California may be first, but it clearly will not end here. Other states are next. Democracy.

Well, no other. So that’s the thing. Other states are not next and they’re not next because other states are not allowing this to happen. And that’s that’s what kicked us in. I mean, yes, he can absolutely do this when there is threat and destruction, et cetera. I mean, when you look at, you know, whether or not it constitutes as, you know, rebellion, it’s a provision of Title 10, Section 12406. It absolutely allows the president to deploy the guard into federal service in instances of, quote unquote, rebellion or danger of rebellion. Or if we’re unable to, with regular forces, execute the laws of the United States. So that absolutely he is absolutely allowed to do this. And Newsom tried to stop him. How did that work out? Audio soundbite 15. Listen.
SPEAKER 29 :
Judge has denied the state of California’s request to stop Trump from using the California National Guard to keep the peace and keep order during these protests. CNN’s Elena Treen is at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, where President Trump is speaking. And Elena, that’s a big development, the judge denying California’s request. Tell us about that and tell us what the president has been saying in his Fort Bragg speech.
SPEAKER 20 :
Yeah, it’s been, it’s been, it’s, It’s not unusual. And like I said, what this section does, it’s 12406. And because everyone goes, oh, the 1878 law that forbids the U.S. military, including the Guard, to take part in civilian law enforcement. This is not an over. This is not canceling out that prohibition, but it does absolutely allow for. First off, troops to protect federal agents. And it allows the National Guard to be in the moment of, again, quote unquote, rebellion or danger of rebellion or for unable to with regular forces execute the laws of the United States, deploy National Guard units into federal service. So this is absolutely under Title 10 of U.S. code. It absolutely is is legitimate. And that’s why you had a judge. And I’m sure that they really didn’t want to rule that way. That’s why you had this judge uphold this. So what Gavin Newsom is saying is just ignorant. He absolutely has the right to do this. So that’s, you know, that’s it. We have more in store. We have days of these United States and then that no kings nonsense. You know, they’re planning that big, giant, whatever, national protest on June 14th. So it’s going to be next week. Like Monday, I think. So we’re going to dive into some of that as well. Folks who helped make it happen, and that is GoldCo. Speaking of gold, I mean, gold and silver, I mean, they really are.

SPEAKER 28 :
In fact, we’ve already seen that prices are rising on many everyday goods.
SPEAKER 02 :
No, Congresswoman, today we had a 1.1 increase. The time is mine.
SPEAKER 28 :
The time is mine. Please don’t interrupt me. I will ask you questions, and I will grant you an opportunity to answer them, but please don’t interrupt me during my time. Oh, my gosh. I know I’m a woman, but please try to limit yourself to answering my questions. No, I’m sorry, but we get talked over all the time, and I don’t want that to happen at this hearing. Not up to deal with it, lady.
SPEAKER 20 :
I can’t stand when women do that. I’ll do it to progressives just to throw their own logic back in their face. But when I see people in legitimate conversations do things like, oh, well, I know you disagree because I’m a woman. No, because you’re just a moronic bee is why. I mean, stop. That’s just a lame crutch. Stop reducing being a woman to a crutch. I can’t stand that. That’s not about a quality. It’s not indicative of empowerment. It’s not at all. So I don’t know if you guys saw this. Did you guys hear about Brian Wilson? Check Slack, Kane. I’m telling you. So Brian Wilson has passed away. Yeah. Yeah. The Beach Boys, Brian Wilson. So that’s number two. Because we had Sly Stone, now Brian Wilson, who’s the third in my grandma’s rule of three.
SPEAKER 15 :
This is happening, isn’t it?
SPEAKER 20 :
The family posted just 22 minutes ago, quote, we are heartbroken to announce that our beloved father, Brian Wilson, has passed away. We’re at a loss of words for words right now.

He got your devil. I know. See, it’s not. I don’t mean to be trite, but these things happen quickly, and Granny’s rule of three has never failed.
SPEAKER 15 :
Does Soros count?
SPEAKER 20 :
Well, I mean, I don’t think it’s an issue so much of whom you want to die as much as it is who do you think is next, considering all the factors of their life on the list.
SPEAKER 15 :
He’s old and evil.
SPEAKER 20 :
He’s old and evil ages you. Causes your arteries to constrict, I think.
SPEAKER 15 :
He’s pretty close to death.
SPEAKER 20 :
I mean, it could be. It could very well happen.
SPEAKER 15 :
And also, I’m hoping for it. You know what I mean? It’s just a thing.
SPEAKER 20 :
I don’t think that that makes it happen more, but, you know, I’m just saying. So, yeah, that’s like an end of an era. Wow. Brian Wilson. He had a lot of health issues, did he not? He had some serious health issues, Brian Wilson, from what I remember. And, but wow, he, I mean, you don’t really, I think everybody knows who he is. Everybody knows, you know, his, his history’s catalog. I mean, he was considered, I mean, he was pretty much, he was considered a genius. He really was. Absolutely. Yeah, an absolute legend. So born in 1942 and 22 minutes ago, if you’re just joining us, Brian Wilson, Beach Boys, has passed away. His family just posted it 22 minutes ago. He was the genius behind the Beach Boys. Wow. We’re going to play some Beach Boys bumper today, I think. Wow. Pretty wild. We have more on the way just to give you an idea where we’ve got there. They’re planning the June 14th, whatever. No Kings protests. We have some big Republicanism.

SPEAKER 24 :
and the House might vote for the recisions package whenever it comes up for a vote.
SPEAKER 02 :
I think there’s going to be strong Democratic opposition here in the House. We’re going to work hard to kill the legislation here in the House of Representatives. This recisions bill, which is doing Elon Musk’s bidding in terms of devastating cuts to our ability as a country, to protect our national security interests all across the world, and then at the same time, assaulting, you know, Bert, Ernie, Big Bird, Elmo, and all of the people connected to Sesame Street. That’s extraordinary.
SPEAKER 20 :
Just saying. It’s Hakeem Jeffries. California. Shut up! Shut up! Get away from me! Hakeem Jeffries. They don’t have anything. Like, how dare you assault Elmo? What? By the way, these can I just add the cuts that are in this rescission package? It’s only nine point four billion compared to the one hundred and seventy billion that Doge recommended. It’s only nine point four. And it focuses on NPR government propaganda. Look, if you I don’t want to pay for your stupid, crappy news. You, you progressives pony up the cash and pay for it your damn selves. Quit using everybody else’s American tax dollars as your welfare. They’re welfare queens. That’s what this is. The continual funding of NPR and all of this other stuff through the public broadcasting, whatever corporation. All of this is them being welfare queens with everyone else’s money. That’s all it is. Welcome back. Dana Lash with you. We’re at the top of this second hour. And so they’re dealing with rescissions today. And this is, I told you this was going to start today. And it’s, yeah, 9.4, that’s a one and a half days of just basic government operations. So you’re only cutting. I mean, it’s a stupid, it’s stupid.
SPEAKER 15 :
It’s fighting hard against it.
SPEAKER 20 :
We’re fighting so hard.
SPEAKER 07 :
Here’s what I got for you. How about we cut one and a half days of government spending?
SPEAKER 20 :
And then Hakeem Jeffries is like, you guys are going after Elmo. Elon’s trying to kill me. You know, it’s… Oh, my gosh. I can’t stand with these people. This is some of the dumbest stuff ever. We live in really… We could be talking about, like, going to space and curing diseases. And no, we’ve got, hey, you guys got to spend more money or Elmo dies. Like, you guys could have paid for him yourselves. Get, you know, Nancy Pelosi Botox out there and San Fran. Maybe she could buy a little bit, you know, less of the Jenny’s ice cream and write a fatter check, write a check to keep Elmo going at PBN. Maybe that’s, you know, maybe spend your money wisely in that respect. So tired of this stuff. That’s what it is, though. They don’t want to spend more money on this stuff. They want you to pay for it because they look at you as their welfare piggy bank. You have to pay for all their stuff. And then they have the audacity to look down their noses at you because you didn’t game the system like they did and do insider trading and make billions of dollars. That’s exactly it. That is exactly it. It’s a class warfare that nobody wants to talk about. You know what? Speaking of class warfare, do you know what Gavin Newsom’s wife was doing? Now, look, I’m going to tell you something. I don’t begrudge people working hard and then being able to afford things, even if I can’t afford them. I don’t begrudge anybody like that. We’ve got friends that… And they work in finance and they got a yacht and all this stuff. And I’m like, that’s, you know, I don’t do boats, but I’m like, that’s cool, right? Because you can just like, you know, go out in the shallows and that’s fine, cool for you. But I’m not, you know, I don’t want to keep other people from being able to do that because I think that it’s a sign of the system still working despite the attempts to curtail it. So I love that. But what I don’t like is when you’re a politician and you are absolutely tone deaf to optics. Now, this is what’s weird because Newsom, He, I don’t know, I think he’s gone lax lately. I think he’s, you know, starting to get played out. He doesn’t realize the optics of some of this stuff. Like when he was at French Laundry, when everybody was supposed to be staying in their houses, right? I mean, my friend was about to get arrested for taking her kids to the playground because she had too many of her own children that she birthed. And they thought that they didn’t want her out in a public playground. That was literally the exact same time that Gavin Newsom was at French Laundry in the same state. So his wife, Jennifer, and I, can I just say I don’t like the whole hyphenated name it’s what how do you say her name siebel or whatever siebel newsome just call yourself jennifer newsome like why do you gotta make stop it she uh went shopping in beverly hills and now dudes your eyes are gonna gloss over here for a minute but your wives are gonna know what this is uh she was toting a go yard tote this tote bag retails for about at least 2300 oh It’s like glorified wrapped canvas. The only leather on it is the trim. I mean, it probably cost $30 to make it. And they sell it for like $2,300. Anyway, so she was carrying that bag, walking around with coffee in Beverly Hills shopping while the riots were happening in Los Angeles. The optics of this are insane. And nobody, but nobody called her. Daily Mail was, they were the only people that wrote a story about it. She looks extra. So she went, and I don’t begrudge people shopping. I don’t begrudge people. I don’t actually even begrudge people being materialistic. But why is that viewed bad as something bad? And this gets a little Ayn Rand. Why does that the left views that as being bad, but they don’t view their own materialism as being bad. They covet what other people want. They are materialistic, even if they don’t possess the materials. They covet materials and they want to be materialistic and they want to do it with other people’s money. That is the difference. And I just think it’s, you know, she they had this. I think it’s hysterical. I had this piece out. Can we talk about Katy Perry? Because Lorraine was on a tear this morning. Lorraine, I think, does not. I kind of get the sense that she doesn’t like Katy Perry. I mean, she has been on a tear on Katy Perry and Slack. I mean, yeah, that guy who fought her for that house, that veteran that they were in a fight over a piece of property over, they should have had Lorraine in the courtroom. So Katy Perry posted this. All right, ready? She says, now imagine her saying it. This is the same chick who was up in space, right? Saying, oh my goddess. It’s so contrived and ridiculous.
SPEAKER 19 :
She says that Los Angeles, a place that literally began as El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de Los Angeles, founded by Mexican settlers in 1781.
SPEAKER 20 :
Oh, wait, hold up. What? What?
SPEAKER 19 :
She continues, this was once Mexican land and the people being targeted today are often descendants of those who have lived here for generations or who came seeking safety and work and dignity. End scene. Okay, so I had some thoughts on this.
SPEAKER 20 :
First off, I think she doesn’t know the difference between Mexico and Spain. That’s my first thought. What is Mexican settler? Because I know the Spanish conquistadors that came over, they were already conquistadors, I’ve got to say. So what is she talking about? That doesn’t even make any sense. And also, that area didn’t even want to be a part of Mexico. Let me pull this up. History is fun. History is fun. We love history. So, in looking at Mexico, it was pretty much barren land that they didn’t even want. And we bought it. We purchased it.
SPEAKER 15 :
And it was after 17… What did she say?
SPEAKER 1 :
1781.
SPEAKER 15 :
So, when did we buy it? I think it was like 1858 or something like that.
SPEAKER 20 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
So…
SPEAKER 20 :
Oh, Lorraine went further back than that. She was like, no, here’s the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. And like went back into the, I mean, the treaty which gave Texas and everything to the U.S., et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Now, you know, her husband is Mexican. And she was talking about also how racist colonial Mexico was, which I’ve heard about. But it’s very interesting to see people. And I cannot wait for some of the replies from like our our RGV area, all of that, because, yeah, you are you were pretty much it was all based upon class division. And I just you know, I think it’s interesting because every minority in the United States came from a group that discriminated against other people. Everyone. American Indians are not even an exception. Everyone. Everybody. There was. And one of the things that Lorena noted, too, is that they literally had like a like a gradient. I’m not kidding you. Like a skin color gradient. How dark were you when you came over? Because that depended upon how you fit into society. It was colonial. Mexico is incredibly racist. And they had the they kept that as part of their records, everything. It was all all of it determined. It’s like a caste system. And I just she just doesn’t seem to be a Katy Perry is not the smartest tool in the sharpest tool in the shed. She doesn’t seem to be very aware of it. But when she says to at the end of her post, she’s like, you know, people who come seeking safety, work and dignity. Well, why doesn’t she allow them to come and seek safety, work and dignity in any one of her houses? Like the house that she fought a veteran over to buy. She took that guy to court and then was like, you’re going to pay my millions of dollars in back and lawyers fees and all of this. Like, why doesn’t or she’s got a history. I just I don’t know. I why would you say something like this to her last album tanked? She could not give away tickets to her tour there. I didn’t have to cancel dates for her tour. She she’s not. No, people are rejecting her. Sidebar. They’re rejecting Beyonce and Cowboy Carter, too. And the speculation is that because they have not figured out how to grow with their fan base and attract other new fans from Gen Z and Alpha. Yeah, that’s why they couldn’t even give Cowboy Carter tickets away. That tour, they were literally giving free tickets away through shelters. They could not give tickets away. They slashed tickets twice. They couldn’t. They were I think she was at Wembley or she was she was performing somewhere in London. And I think it was supposed to be three nights and they didn’t even sell it the first night. which compared to her Renaissance tour, and I’m not saying it because I’m a fan of hers. I like using this as a thermometer, as a measure for where culture is. Yeah, like that one sold out within hours, but this one people aren’t doing it anymore. And the thought from insiders and executives in the industry is that, and I don’t like Taylor Swift, but they said that one of the things that Swift has been able to do is grow her audience with her. Maybe that’s why she’s like 30 something years old and tries to still sound like an 18 year old. I don’t know. But that Beyonce and Katy Perry haven’t done that. And their audience now is dealing with mortgages and kids and kids going into college and all this stuff. And they just don’t. They don’t have time for this anymore. And her ticket prices were astronomical for this tour. What was one of the seats? And it wasn’t even one of the premium seats. It was like $500 for a ticket. a ticket and it wasn’t even like the premium i mean i’m thinking for 500 you better be picking me up from my house and literally carrying me on a throne made of people into you know my seat and then like bring me water and drinks all night and snacks that’s what i hour backstage with a buffet yeah like you should be able to be also get a pass to visit craft services all of those things So I just I don’t know. I these people are just completely tone deaf, absolutely tone deaf. But we’re going to play because now you have what the Senate president in Mexico who was like, oh, we’re going to we need this land back. OK, we bought it. No, you don’t get it back. Shut up. You can’t even keep your mayors alive in Mexico. Every single time you have a mayor who says, I don’t know if I like the cartels. Bam, they’re dead. Maybe like clean up your own area before you start pointing fingers, et cetera, et cetera. So let’s be real. Medical freedom isn’t just a catchphrase. It’s your right.

SPEAKER 20 :
Super sad. We just told you Brian Wilson, this was maybe a half hour ago, of the Beach Boys, has passed away at age 82. The family announced on X that they are heartbroken to share that their beloved father, Brian Wilson, has passed away. They’re at a loss for words. Please respect our privacy at this time as our family is grieving. We realize that we are sharing our grief with the world. Love and mercy. You’ve been dealing with some health issues for a really long time. Now, you guys remember my grandma’s rule three. You had sliced stone yesterday, two days ago. Brian Wilson today. There’s going to be a third. I’m just saying that’s the granny’s rule three. It’s how it always happens. I’m not being mean. I’m just being honest. It always happens that way. Let’s see here. I don’t know how to say this word. It’s human limb regeneration. And they’re like these little robot thingies glowing. What is that, Kate? Axolotl. Axolotl. Axol… What? Axolots. Axolots. They could hold the key to limb regeneration. It’s a popular aquarium of pet, pop culture icon of video games. It’s a little adorable species of salamander. And they’re trying to figure out, you know, through these, could the human body be coaxed to regrow an arm or leg because these things regenerate. So it’s, you know, very interesting. I mean, let’s not splice our genes, okay? Let’s not do any grafting. Let’s see. They’re trying to say that Ozempic is killing McDonald’s, that McDonald’s shares are slipping as the GLP-1 risks spur rare cell ratings, all this other stuff. I’ve been hearing all kinds of stuff like, oh, it’s killing McDonald’s. Or maybe also people are realizing they don’t want to eat, you know, over processed stuff anymore, too. AI can now stalk you with just a single vacation photo. I think people share way too much online. But they’re also saying that AI could weaponize the data you’ve been sharing for decades and decades. You don’t want to accept all and every cookie request because the AI is going to crawl your content as well. And a body was found abandoned in an ambulance in Brooklyn.

SPEAKER 16 :
Trump is pulling a military dragnet all across Los Angeles, well beyond his stated intent to just go after violent and serious criminals. His agents are arresting dishwashers, gardeners, day laborers, and seamstresses. That’s just weakness, weakness masquerading as strength.
SPEAKER 20 :
What? So this is Gavin Newsom. This was yesterday when he gave us a little weird address. He’s trying to launch a presidential campaign on this, which, you know, we told you that was going to happen. He’s using this as a vehicle through which to to juggernaut himself up to the lead of the Democrat Party. What does it matter if these people were here illegally? That’s the thing. Joining me now, my friend Kurt Schlichter, author, commentator, trial lawyer, retired colonel of the U.S. Army. And he’s got a new book that he wrote with his lovely wife, Los Angeles, and then also pre-ordering Underway. He’s got American Apocalypse, Second American Civil War. He needs to stop writing so many books so I can keep track of them and actually read them in chronological order. But he joins us now. The Second American Civil War comes out on July 17th. Kurt Schlichter, My good friend. For those who don’t know, Kurt was one of the brass in charge of like keeping the peace with the guard during the L.A. riots back during the OG Korean rooftop days or rooftop Korean days. So he’s got a little bit of insight in this, Kurt. I mean, you know, you kind of responded to some of this on social media. But, you know, think of the seamstresses and the window washers. And I just love that this is the only jobs that they ever think immigrants, legal or otherwise, can fill.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, I hope Gavin Newsom comes and explains the only proper roles for Hispanic Americans to my Latinx wife. That should be interesting.
SPEAKER 20 :
Oh, yes. Well, I mean, one of the things you said to me, which I kind of chuckled at, but then I was like, wow, you guys really have been through it. How is this like a season? You know, you like rainy seasons, monsoon seasons. Is this like riot season for California? It happens so often.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, it happens every once in a while. It is… You know, the thing is, it gets tolerated. And I remember during the L.A. riots, the reason the L.A. riots explode is the LAPD pulled back. And if they had gone in, you know, shooting when Reginald Denny was getting his brains beaten out on national TV, I think that probably would have say, you know, shoot down two or three guys. I think that probably would save 60 lives and a couple billion dollars and three weeks of my time because I had to come on active duty for that.
SPEAKER 20 :
Wow. Let’s let’s set it straight for everybody to like all of these this latest round of riots started because from what I understand, ICE had a like a base that was set up somewhere near not at Home Depot and they had been. involved in an ongoing, a very long, ongoing investigation of a Mexican drug cartel’s money laundering operation. And then somehow somebody said, oh, they’re raiding the Home Depot and now they’re raiding everything. That that’s not even how it started. And now that whole I’m sure that whole investigation into the cartel money laundering has been compromised because of this. But then like that and the MSNBCs and the CNNs, they made it into a thing where ICE is going out and like raiding everybody’s homes like personally.
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, I want them to. I mean, look, I have a glancing familiarity with the law. I was checking through the Constitution. I didn’t see a seamstress, gardener, or Home Depot day laborer exception in there to federal law. You know, here’s the thing. I keep hearing about our democracy. Remember, it’s always our democracy. You hate our democracy. Well, I’m just a dumb kid who learned about American democracy from Schoolhouse Rock. Remember, I’m just a bill. Congress passes a bill. Our representatives vote on it. Then the president signs it. That becomes law. And how’s a democracy if you can pass a law and then you have a bunch of people who go, no, I just want to enforce it. What’s the difference between that and a dictatorship?
SPEAKER 20 :
Yeah, that’s a really good point, too. That’s a very good point. Well, the people that have been involved in this, I mean, obviously you have illegal immigrants that are wreaking havoc. You have, I think, just criminals that are looking to exploit for the sake of criminality. The Marxists. I mean, it’s like a United Colors of Bennington ad. It’s like all the usual suspects, Kurt.
SPEAKER 10 :
Free Palestine, climate change, third world peasants flooding our country. What else you got?
SPEAKER 20 :
Everything. It’s just everything. And they’re U.S. out of North America. But what when you have a protest, isn’t a protest supposed to persuade people? It’s supposed to be like the last like Hail Mary attempt to persuade people. to come to your side. But that’s not what this is. And I made mention of this yesterday. It seems like it’s more of a fear tactic, a campaign to strike fear to people.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yes. Stop. Look, they are. And they conceded. They are seeking to conduct political change through the threat of violence. When Karen Bass, who went to Cuba, she’s an outright communist. Oh, yeah. Comes out and says, well, you know, we’ve got to stop enforcing the law or they’re going to keep being violent. OK, now I thought elections were supposed to, you know, we’re supposed to determine what our government did and didn’t do. But apparently now it’s the threat of violence. No, I’d rather crush them. And my boys from the 79th Infantry Brigade Combat Team said, are the perfect guys to come out and deal with this nonsense. A lot of them have experience in prior wars. I’ve got a pretty sharp eye for these things, Dana. I’m looking at these guys. I’m looking to see if they’re screwing up, right? I’m inspecting, just like I did when I was their colonel. I’m looking, are they in uniform? Yeah. Is their web gear, is it kind of like just tossed together like they just got it handed it to them in the armory and they stuck it together before they got in the vehicles or does it look lived in? It looks lived in. How are they handling their weapons? Are they flagging each other? You know, does it look like they have they’re totally unfamiliar with their M4s? No, it looks like they know their stuff. Are there NCOs and officers around? Yeah, I saw sergeants. I saw the company commander out front. And I saw them standing there while that hideous monster Maxine Waters was belittling and abusing them. And they just stood there, total professionals. I’m so proud of these guys. They just look great. They were doing great. I mean, you know, I can’t say enough good about the guys from the 79th.
SPEAKER 20 :
Yeah. And they’re doing they’re doing a lot of work and getting a lot of abuse, too, with all of this. And so you I mean, obviously, your legal background, because, you know, people don’t know. But Kurt’s a trial lawyer as well. Kurt Schlichter is joining us. If you’re if you’re if you’re just tuning in the argument that not just Karen Bass, but Gavin Newsom have been making saying that Trump doesn’t have the authority to do this. And I thought under Section 10, he does. And it doesn’t it doesn’t. It goes beyond like I know they keep saying we can’t use the military to enforce, you know, whatever local law, et cetera. But you can win. And that’s what Section 10 gets into, from my understanding of it, when it’s an issue of rebellion or endangerment, et cetera. Talk to us about this, because they’re they don’t. And that’s why the judge ruled in favor of Trump.
SPEAKER 10 :
No one understands anything about posse comitatus. Posse comitatus is an IQ test. If someone’s talking about it, you can presume they don’t know what they’re talking about. Now, me, I’m the guy who published the first law review on military support to civilian operations back in 1993. That was me. I was the first guy to do it because no one had done it. There are posse comitatus is a statute that says you can’t. It is illegal to take active duty military forces and use them to enforce civilian law. except under certain circumstances. And there are a number of different circumstances. The Insurrection Act gets around it. That’s what we came out and did in Los Angeles. But you are also allowed to bring them up to protect federal institutions or installations and to help federal officers who are being stopped from performing their duties. And that’s what they brought up. It’s under Title 10. I think it’s 12,000-something section. But if you notice, the guardsmen are not out there busting heads. The guardsmen are in static positions defending fixed sites. which is not law enforcement activity. Law enforcement activity would be going out there and arresting people. Guarding something is not law enforcement activity, not covered by posse comitatus. Everything that Trump is doing is perfectly legal. The ruling yesterday was a temporary ruling. The judge refused to give what’s called an ex parte order. That is an order… to the court, and they didn’t even want to give the feds a chance to respond to it, to basically not deploy and use the troops. The judge said, I’m not going to issue that. I’m going to let you brief it, and then we’ll talk about it at a hearing Thursday afternoon. This is Justice Breyer’s brother, Charles Breyer. He’s a Democrat. He’s got a reputation for not being a complete idiot.
SPEAKER 1 :
Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER 10 :
legally, without going into too much detail, Gavin Newsom’s as good a lawyer as he is a husband and a governor.
SPEAKER 20 :
Okay, we’re going to need to clip that. Wow, talking to our friend Kurt Schlichter, I agree with that, and that was a great explainer. I wanted to ask you about this. I know you saw this video of this chick who was dressed in an Army uniform, a self-identified veteran, and she joined these anti-ICE groups. riots in Dallas or sorry protests in Dallas this is on Monday and she gave this speech and she was like oh we’re not pawns for Donald Trump’s agenda that’s there were a lot of people that were calling shenanigans on this I’m going to play this real quick for our audience this is audio somebody 27 it’s real short about 20 seconds
SPEAKER 01 :
You’re not pawns for Donald Trump’s agenda. Why now? It’s because the military was called upon innocent protesters. We, in our oath to serve, we serve the people of the United States, the Constitution. These constitutional rights are being stripped and just denied, and the military will not be pawns to that. So I’m calling upon the conscience of military members who served previously and now.
SPEAKER 20 :
So, yeah, already Kurt’s laughing.
SPEAKER 10 :
I mean, there were a lot of people calling shenanigans on this isn’t serving anything because she was an enlisted soldier who discharged about five years ago. She’s not a JAG. She’s not a paralegal. She was an intelligence analyst proving that military intelligence is the. Oh, yeah. It’s kind of the opposite. Wow. Yes. Wow. She’s also giving very, very bad advice, which these Ted Lieu did, too. Now, Ted Lieu has no excuse. He’s he’s an Air Force jag, meaning he’s like the worst of all possible worlds. He’s also my congressman. He got on TV and said, you know, each soldier has to check his conscience to see if he is, you know, following lawful orders here. Well, dumbass, these are lawful orders. Yes. And you are just going to get, you know, what they’re going to do is they’re going to convince some… Dummy three barracks lawyer that, oh, yeah, I can I can resist. And dude’s going to end up in Leavenworth while Ted lose chomping on the chocolate chip cookies in the CNN green room.
SPEAKER 20 :
One last question for you. Our friend Kurt Schlichter joining us by phone. The remark of Gavin Newsom talking about the mistreatment. of soldiers and guardsmen because they were it looked like they were just like in a staging area one of our friends said oh they got their three-day packs and that looks full they look totally fine you know they have you know they’re in a climate controlled area they like does he is he just that unfamiliar with military and also nancy pelosi put everybody in a parking garage in dc
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, look, you know, Gavin Newsom never served. And with him, it’s always a question of whether he’s stupid or he thinks you are. First of all, I looked at those guys. Now, there’s some people out there saying, no, they’re from Afghanistan. They’re not. They’ve got 79th patches. They’re equipped like 79th. They’re my guys. And I’m looking at those accommodations thinking, la-dee-da, hanging out at the Getty Center, man. You guys got it good. That’s the freaking Hilton. I spent six months in a tent with a dirt floor and a scorpion for a roommate. I mean, my gosh, they got a roof. They got ground. They’re infantrymen. They’re in freaking heaven. The only way it could be better is someone’s coming around bringing them drinks, which they actually had. You saw the water bottles all over the place. That is a perfectly adequate temporary staging area right now. And I know the commander of the 79th. He is a great guy. He used to work for me. He is… absolutely uh committed to his troops uh right now his poor s4 that’s the supply officer uh for the battalion brigade is running around in circles making sure that 200 cots get delivered over there that the they’re getting hot chow that they’re getting every single thing they need because their leadership will not tolerate anything less So they’ll be on the ground for a day or two. That’s fine. Then they will do what we call improving our position and start making it better. That’s what soldiers do. I’m looking at that and every other vet’s going, Oh, I had worse for longer in scarier places.
SPEAKER 20 :

Pastor Alan Jackson says the church has abdicated its duty to stand up for biblical truth.
SPEAKER 27 :
It grieves me a lot that a president has to stand up. I mean, for the most part, a secular president has to stand up and say there’s two sexes. You know, where the heck were the churches? Where was the scientific community? We were so cowed by cultural pressure that we were denying the truth.

SPEAKER 15 :
It’s his life mission to make bad decisions. It’s time for Florida Man.
SPEAKER 20 :
Today in gross, a guy tried to pay for… intercourse at a Florida club, and then he called 911 to complain about not receiving the services, according to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office. He said he went to this club and paid $300 for those, um, romantical services at the oz gentlemen’s club that’s your first step and uh they said he asked for a private room and was denied so now they’ve charged him his name is sultan all no fae he faces a charge of misuse of the wireless 911 system and you know maybe don’t play steven gentlemen’s clubs aren’t where you learn to be a gentleman No, no, no, no. That is correct, sir. That’s weird. Yes, that is.
SPEAKER 15 :
False advertising.
SPEAKER 20 :
Yeah, I mean, yeah, that’s true. Think about it. This is a wild one. Threw me for a loop. A Florida mayor was convicted for 120 plus fraudulent flights as a fake attendant. He literally used the internal flight booking system designed for employees of several airlines to get himself. That is a security. What? 35 years old from South Florida. He illegally boarded more than 120 flights across the U.S. because he faked being a flight attendant. It’s exactly he flew on American Delta United, all of it through every major airport you can imagine under false pretenses. So they’ve got him charged with a whole bunch of stuff. So coming up. Yes, we were right to use the atomic bomb. And we’re going to correct some retcon history. Stay with us. Now, I’m always going to tell you to carry. I carry and I have zero issue at all whatsoever, ladies and gentlemen, with using lethal force to protect myself or my loved ones. I’m trained and completely not emotional in doing so. Here’s the thing, though. Sometimes you’re disarmed, whether it’s by municipal restrictions, private property restrictions, or maybe you’re a college student and you’re living on your own, but you are yet young, too young to be able to have And carry a handgun. This is where Berna gun comes in. So there’s two versions. You have the Berna SD, which is their best selling model. And then they just came out with the new Berna CL. CL stands for compact launcher. Now it’s like the SD, but the difference 38% smaller, a little bit more compact. All of it’s made right here in the U.S. of A. And they shoot chemical irritant projectiles that can disable threats from up to 50 feet away. It’s easy target acquisition. There is no recoil. And when you compare it to like regular stun guns, et cetera, you got one or two rounds there. Berna has five. It’s illegal in all 50 states. No background checks, no permits. They ship it right to your door. It does not care about gun-free zone signs either. and it makes it accessible for everyone. So the SD, and then there is the CL. Both of them are great. Now, they have, like, rifles and that, but for the purpose of self-defense, especially, you know, when you’re trying to conceal, I would suggest the SD or CL, and the CL is even more compact. But this is a self-defense option for when your options are limited out of your power. Visit Burna.com slash Dana and get your hands on the new Burna CL. B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Dana. Burna, ready when you are. What you’re hearing are the alarms that are blaring on multiple iPhones that were taken when an Apple store was looted last night in downtown L.A. And so what Apple did is they remotely made those phones bricks and they sounded this alarm and it notified everyone that it is a stolen phone and that authorities were notified. So the Apple iPhones are going to rise up. To take revenge for the Waymos. They’re going to avenge the Waymos. Oh, my gosh. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. Oh, my goodness. I wanted to dive into something. I made mention of this yesterday. And one of my friends wrote about this as well over at PJ Media, Steve Green. His article was titled, what the hell was that Tulsi Gabbard video about? And I’m not going to replay it, but she did this. She released this video yesterday and it was a really weird and he know this to campaign kind of style video. And she was talking about the threat of nuclear weapons and the real world effects of nuclear weapons. And she had recently visited Hiroshima and she was basing her commentary on that. And it was really weird because I understand that she was trying to warn about the serious on you can’t delete it effects of nuclear warfare. But her whole video just smacked of this like Obama esque like apology thing. You remember when Barack Obama went to Japan and was essentially making apologies for everything with World War Two and everyone was up in arms. Now, she didn’t make apologies for anything in the video, but she was talking about specifically only how Japan was affected. And it was very Obama esque. And I’m not the only one who took issue with it. A lot of people took issue with it. And then I saw in defense of that, because I get there are a lot of people on the right that fall into the cult of personality, just like the left, right? And there are people who I get it. If people like Gabber, that’s fine. I’ve got I don’t dislike her as a person at all. I have issues with I don’t think that she ever fully actually she never fully explained her to a conversion. I watched the video that she put out, which is always promoted as being sufficient enough to explain the 180. But it isn’t. And I actually listened to it. And I don’t know how anyone who is genuinely intellectually curious can say that it satisfied their questions. It was just miles wide and inches deep and it kind of glossed over it. There was no articulation and it bothered me. But and I don’t agree with some of her foreign policy stuff. But this whole thing to the way that she approached this video really rubbed me the wrong way because of it reminded me so much of the Obama stuff. And I’m not the only one that said that even John Kennedy out of Louisiana said she needs to change her meds after he was asked about her video. And. Again, yes, nuclear warfare is horrible, but there is a retconning of history here that has to be addressed. I really do think that there has been a longstanding effort to propagandize on behalf of Russia like what ended up happening at the end of World War II. Because I see a lot of people go, oh, well, you know, the only reason that the United States used the nuclear bombs is because they didn’t, they wanted to flex because Russia was just about to end it all. They were, you know, they were threatening to enter Manchuria, et cetera, et cetera. That is such, first of all, that’s not true. And just for the record, I am a major World War Two history buff. I know about as much about as World War Two as I do about firearms. I love everything World War Two. I think I’ve seen every World War Two movie I have read. So I’ve read biographies on here. Hirohito, Pat, everything. MacArthur, everything. Love World War Two history because it was. a test of the greatest people, I think, of our human species, the greatest generation. And I’ve always been fascinated as to why they did what they did and how they did what they did facing such odds. So let’s kind of just really quickly explain this real fast so you can see this because it’s propaganda. First off, one of the things that people need to understand, yes, it’s horrible that we live in a world where sometimes you have to act brutally to subjugate brutes. And prior to the first bombing of Hiroshima, people forget that Japan did not want to surrender. Part of it was a Bushido ethos. And that is a completely accurate thing. The Japanese Bushido ethos. It wasn’t so much about being against surrender, but what was viewed as a dishonorable surrender. They did not want to surrender. In fact, Japan’s not only did Japan’s government have to agree whether to any kind of to any kind of surrender or any kind of truce or anything, but you also had to get the military to agree with it. Now, the thing that aggravated me about the video that she came out with is she was talking about all the suffering of the Japanese almost in a singular way, as though no one else suffered. And that’s what bothered me. It was a choice that they unfortunately made. And actually, kind of a sidebar, I don’t know if you’ve seen, what was it? Is it Godzilla Zero? Or no, sorry, what was the movie? You guys know this. Is it Godzilla Zero One? I can’t remember. The latest Godzilla that was brilliant. The Minus? Yeah, sorry. Minus one Godzilla minus one that that actually is tinged through the perspective of Japanese civilians being dissatisfied with their government and military role during World War Two. It is wild. I did not expect that in that movie anyway. The military, hardcore, did not want to stop. And in the beginning, Hirohito didn’t either. I mean, when you had the Russians, because the United States was trying to walk through this diplomatically and trying to de-escalate, the Russians were… Soviet mediation had stalled out for months prior to the bombing of Hiroshima. It had stalled out for months. And before all of this, the… Glossing over of the atrocities committed by Imperial Japan, that cannot be understated. And that was what made me mad about our video. They had what’s called the three all’s policy and three all’s meaning kill all, burn all, loot all. The three all’s policy that Hirohito personally endorsed. He personally endorsed this. It’s I think in Japanese, it’s Senko Sakuzan. And it was a very brutal, scorched earth approach. And some people like Peter Jennings have tried to retcon history by arguing that Hirohito was outraged at some of the Japanese war crimes. That’s a lie. That is propaganda. Because he had personally endorsed these methods. And he was very, he was, you know, a warmonger. People forget how they went through China, how they went through. They were on this three all’s conquest because they were gobbling up resources. They had imperial designs. And they were not interested at all whatsoever in surrender. In fact, it is very important to understand how many people were killed. Not just, you know, not just considering Japanese citizens, but Chinese. The numbers are all over the place. Japanese numbers were saying something like two million. China was saying, no, we’re in double digits million, y’all. And that was before China went like all now. So it was it was brutal. They were brutes. And, yeah, they said two point seven. That was the Japanese source contacting Chinese and other sources were saying, actually, it could be anywhere up to twenty five million. They’re saying that it was similar to that of like Belarus during, you know, over there, World War Two and Nazi occupation. So and then you have Tojo. I mean, good heavens. I mean, these were the military decision making and the government. They were very it was they weren’t always on the same page because you would have local military that would sometimes get involved in conflict outside of like the emperor’s family, etc. Like the invasion of Manchuria in 1931. I’m not going to get off into it. But long story short, they had no interest in surrender. And the Soviet negotiations prior to Hiroshima had stalled out already. And so the United States began preparing what they called Operation Downfall because they wanted the Japanese to surrender unconditionally under Potsdam. They weren’t going to do that originally. The Soviet negotiations were stalling out. Japanese were preparing for a possible invasion with Ketsugo, which means Operation Decisive. And they were they were going to they were very, very fanatical. And they thought it’s going to be a war of attrition with ferocious defense. And that’s how they were going to approach this. And you were going to see millions of lives. In fact, the United States prepared Operation Downfall. It is amazing. I remarked on this on X, and you ought to go and look at the verified accounts of real people whose parents and family members were in World War II in the Pacific, and they were being prepared for Operation Downfall. They were prepared. They printed over half a million Purple Hearts. We were anticipating… up to, if not over, 2 million additional casualties, in addition to already the casualties that we had accrued in World War II. We did not want to do a land invasion. Now, you do the math, and you compare the numbers, and you tell me, from Operation Downfall and Ketsugo, how are those casualties, if it’s about minimizing loss of life? And emotion has no place in geopolitics. If it’s about minimizing the loss of life, you tell me which is the fastest, most efficient approach. That’s why they dropped the bomb. Nobody wanted to do anything like they didn’t want to. They didn’t want a land invasion and they didn’t really want to drop the bomb. But Japan was fanatical. Imperial Japan. They were fanatical and unreasonable. And at some point, Hirohito started to see that Japan, the tide was turning. The citizens were scared. But everything stalled out. So on the 6th of August, we dropped Hiroshima. And then afterwards, Nagasaki. And then days later, we had the unconditional surrender. The Allied forces wanted to be able to basically have the emperor’s power in their hands. One of the things that was done that isn’t discussed often is that a lot of the war crimes were not part of the public record as a gesture of goodwill to to expedite stability in Japan. Not a lot of people know that. That’s historical fact. And it was still they were still so divisive, even after. Hiroshima and Nagasaki. You had to have the emperor’s family actually travel around Japanese occupied areas to say that the emperor’s family, they were surrendering and people needed to back it. They had to go to the tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers that were still in China. They had to go through, you know, all of these areas and try to convince people. Yes, it is surrender because that is how seriously they did not want to surrender. So all these people trying to retcon this are historically illiterate, propagandized puppets. It is offensive. It is anti-American. And they should be embarrassed for such a blatant display of ignorance. I do not tolerate ignorance in this era of information. And so the reason why that video rubbed me the wrong way is is because it glosses over all of this. It glossed over all of that, and it seemed very Obama-esque. And it was an odd video. And I’m not the only person to remark on how odd it was and how inappropriate the tone was. Because it ran very close to a historically illiterate apology for Hiroshima and Nagasaki, for which we do not have to apologize. For what? For reducing the amount of casualties because we did not entertain Operation Downfall? To reduce the amount of casualties from what would have been the biggest land invasion in the history of this world? for reducing the amount of casualties in the face of a fanatical opponent that was not going to surrender under no circumstance. For that, we make no apologies. Now, all of that has happened, and that should be water under the bridge, and we should learn from it. And I’m all about remarking on how nuclear warfare, you can’t delete it. You can’t go back. There’s no backspace key. It’s dangerous. It’s real. And that is why war is a last resort. But to retcon it in such a way is historical illiteracy unfit for anyone holding public office at the federal level. Recently, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis legalized gold and silver as acceptable currency, meaning that Floridians cannot make transactions in gold and silver, thus creating an alternative to the U.S. dollar. So I guess all the inflation and national debt that’s spiraling out of control, not to mention the recent credit downgrade for the United States, has finally opened up all lawmakers’ eyes.

SPEAKER 20 :
Man, Brian Wilson still trying to get over that. Gosh dang. All right. So this is crazy. American Airlines apparently sent a plane from the U.S. to Italy that was too big for the Naples airport. So they had to reroute it to Rome to the Da Vinci airport up there to have it land. That’s about maybe a two hour train ride. So, yeah, give or take. But I think it’s a bus. It’s like two hours. Maybe it’s like an hour and a half hour, you know, whatever train ride. So it’s not completely bad. You know, you get to see some of the pretty countryside, but whatever. It’s also inconvenient. But it was too big. They sent a plane that was too big for Naples. So, like, how do you make that mistake? Naples has a pretty sizable airport. Now they’re doing direct flights, by the way, from DFW to Venice. That’s something else that they just announced. Yeah, direct from DFW to Venice. Go to Veneto. Yeah, it’s so awesome. Let’s see. Can we talk about this? The gate to hell. What? Yes, the gate to hell. There apparently is one. It is in the arid desert of Turkmenistan. It was a huge crater that’s been burning with the wrath of a thousand flames night and day, day and night. Tourists flock to the edges. Spiders are drawn to the glow and they get, you know, they get burned to death. It’s a massive hole that was it’s been like it was accidentally set alight by decades for Soviet engineers. And finally, it looks like it’s because it’s has it’s powered by methane. And so it’s just you can see it from space. It’s been burning forever. Now it’s finally they think it’s going to finally go out. The literal pit of hell. Stick with us. We got a lot more in store.

Members of Congress trapped in the gallery, including myself, including a lot of the people here. That was a dire situation where the police were run over. People were beaten with… So, and then the difference is, Speaker Pelosi asked for help. Very different situation. And here’s the thing. Donald Trump is the one that was actually inciting that. And here’s what’s also going on. How many police officers have died in L.A.? Zero. How many people died on January 6th? Zero. Five. How many people were their heads were beaten in here? That’s an absolute lie. Two or maybe more.
SPEAKER 20 :
Even the Biden DOJ had to refute. Wow. This. So this is noted liar. Representative Gomez. Who that’s not none of that’s accurate at all. First off, nobody. He’s Jimmy Gomez. He’s out of California. There was no there were no cops that were killed at all whatsoever. And January 6th, the only person that was killed was Alicia Babbitt. She was shot by a ridiculous, completely ridiculous Capitol Police officer who just fired into a crowd without knowing his target or where the bullet would go. It was asinine. The other officers there later on, if anybody had health issues, it was completely unrelated. And that was something that was confirmed by the autopsies and even reluctantly by Biden’s DOJ. So these are all lies. I mean, when you’re when you’re peddling lies like this, Gomez is doing this because he wants to incite. Nobody ran over a cop on J6. Nobody did anything like that. Nobody was armed. Nobody was throwing chunks of concrete at cops or Molotov cocktails. Nobody was doing anything like that. So that’s just so stupid. They don’t need to lie. They don’t need to lie. Fetterman’s the only guy who apparently gets it. He’s like, you know what? You can’t be doing this and win the debate. Stop being violent. Stop doing this. Stop attacking cops. Just stop all of it. And he’s right. I, that’s just ridiculous. I’m so tired of hearing this stuff. I’m so tired of it. And what’s more, I mean, you know, they had, when he says Nancy Pelosi, she called for help. She actually didn’t. In fact, when they had hearings on this, they had to have the head of Capitol Police actually confirm that she didn’t, in fact, call for help. In fact, she’s on video because her stupid daughter made a documentary where I guess they thought they… I mean, how planned was that? Your daughter is doing a documentary on it and she’s in your office when this happens and then they try to gather this footage. There’s a reason why they never released it in total because it’s very compromising. Her daughter apparently didn’t have the wherewithal to recognize that the footage that she was… obtaining wasn’t going to really look great on behalf of her mom. I mean, it’s just so stupid. So why say this stuff? Who believes this? I mean, other than the left, I don’t think he’s going to, he’s not trying to convince anyone who has an open mind. He’s just throwing this out there as reinforcement for the people who no matter what, they’re going to justify anything because they just don’t like the current president. Which is so dumb. I’m so tired of this stuff. You know, conservatives, we never did any of this stuff. We didn’t do it. I mean, goodness. So this is ongoing. And they keep saying, I think they’re losing the argument that it is not manufactured by them. They keep trying to blame it on Trump. And it’s just not, you know. But this is all about Newsom trying to jockey and use this as a vehicle so he can leap forward to the front of the line and make it look like he’s the Democrat Party leader. The longer the instability goes, he views it. I mean, you know, to hell with the safety and stability of his voters in his area. His state, the longer it goes, the more he can wring national attention from it. The problem is, is that we’re still quite a bit away from 2028. So how long does he need this to go on so he can maintain some kind of public national presence? For it to last that long, it has to keep escalating. That’s the problem. Because this stuff peters out. People can’t stand, they can’t be mad forever. You can’t write for it. Nobody has that energy. And the attention, the public’s attention is very fickle. So you have to keep escalating it. You keep escalating it more and more and more. And it’s, you know, unfortunate. They will do that, though. They did it with Occupy Wall Street. You saw how long that… They’re trying to do it more with June 14th. By the way, that No Kings thing, you know how the big ad in the New York Times was taken out by one of the Walmart heiresses? So Walmart, and if you subscribe to the newsletter, you got this. They issued… Let me pull this tweet up. They issued this… tweet. They put it out. I have it in, if you get my newsletter, it’s in Tuesday Night Thoughts. So they issued this tweet where they responded to the ads that Christy Walton placed in New York Times. Dan Bartlett, who is the EVP of corporate affairs at Walmart, posted this yesterday, quote, Weakened in violence, including when it’s directed towards law enforcement and the damaging of property. As a company with associates and customers in the Los Angeles region, we remain focused on their safety and that of impacted associates. The advertisements from Christy Walton are in no way connected to or endorsed by Walmart. She does not serve on the board or play any role in decision making at Walmart. So… I don’t know if that totally absolves them. They’ve – I don’t know. She’s using her name and trading on it for sure. The donations overall, they spent a lot of money. In 2024, they spent a lot of money on – And only in the past several years did they actually kind of start favoring Republicans over Democrats. Really, they spent I’m looking at Walmart specifically in their their packs. I think it was like 22 million. And they like a lot of Republican governors. So obviously she’s a trust. She’s a Nepo baby trust fund socialist, Christy Walton. She’s living off of a fortune that she didn’t make, that she didn’t earn, that she just inherited by way of the genetic lottery. And then she’s going to take an ad out in a newspaper. Do you think she’s going to be in the streets? Hell no, she might have to cancel her manicure. Goodness, no. She’s not going to be able to go with her designer duds into the streets with the unwashed masses. That’s how these people always are. It’s like that Hasan Piker guy. I can’t stand him. That’s Chunk’s nephew, Cenk Uygur. I don’t know if you said this guy’s a streamer and he platformed a Houthi terrorist for clicks. I mean, he’s literally a ward on the ass of America. But he was he took a picture of himself dressed up to go to the riots. And he was like he wore a plate carrier vest literally without the plate. He wore the vest without the plate in it, not making this up. And then he had was it a gas mask that was pink and it wasn’t even hooked up. He was wearing it around his neck like an accessory. He had on tons of jewelry. I’m like, you think you’re a Borderlands character. This is Borderlands cosplay. Like at least Burning Man, they’re just there to chill and be dirty in the desert. This is lame and ridiculous. They get so excited. They go to a military surplus store and they try to get this alternative looking stuff and they dress up like Borderlands cosplay. And then they go and I mean, he’s the like absolute definition of a trust fund socialist. He’s a nepo baby. That’s how these people are. The only time that they show up is if they think they can use it for clicks. That’s it. They will incite people and get other people to do the dirty work. And then when those people do the dirty work, these people are nowhere to be found. Nowhere. So that June 14th thing, the no kings, I was reading because I couldn’t figure out what the hell it was about. And I still really don’t, Cain, understand what it’s about other than, but my Trump, that’s it. That’s literally all I got.
SPEAKER 15 :
Well, it’s kind of the organization that we saw in Los Angeles and in Cal, you know, the areas that we saw rioting. You know, you saw palace somehow. Why would be bricks and blocks just be sitting on the corner here? What’s going on with that? There’s a coordinated effort behind this. So nationwide, they’re, I guess, essentially activating all their sleeper cells and And it’s going to be nationwide. So Trump is already trying to get ahead of it in regards to implementing some federal support in some of the larger cities that, you know, they’re going to have a response to. Yeah.
SPEAKER 20 :
Well, I don’t doubt it. I don’t doubt it at all. Well, it’s all I mean, it is all organized. It’s absolutely all organized. And I think that, too, you know, the left loves their big billionaires that fund everything. But then they get really mad over it. elon musk then they get really mad over him now in the meantime while all of this is raging i wanted to sit i’m gonna bring because we talked about the iphones i want to hit on this greta thunberg thing can we play audio sound by 32 this girl is she’s not a girl she’s a grown woman she’s an absolute brat listen to this Sorry, 32.
SPEAKER 26 :
What happened to you when you arrived in Ashdod port? I mean, were you taken off the boat? Was there any violence? Were you detained? How? Where?
SPEAKER 22 :
No, I prefer not to go into details about that. We arrived there, we were detained and then we were… Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER 20 :
And then she said she was kidnapped, Audio Sun by 31, after their little freedom, their selfie flotilla. And by the way, she rode on a boat that had sails that they never actually unfurled, and it was powered by a diesel engine, but whatever. Audio Sun by 31, listen.
SPEAKER 23 :
On international waters, we were illegally attacked and kidnapped by Israelis.
SPEAKER 20 :
She’s saying Israel, if she wants to understand what kidnapping looks like, let her go to Gaza and see if Hamas will show her all of the American and Israeli hostages that they have. Maybe Sherry Beavis and her boys there, you know, that you saw what happened to them. They were kidnapped. Countless other people were kidnapped. When you’re kidnapping someone, you don’t give them a sandwich and send them home. I mean, Israel must be the worst hostage takers ever. They gave her a sandwich and sent her home. Gave her a free plane ride home. That’s it. I mean, it’s Greta Thunberg and her flotilla of misfit douchebags. They decided to try to float to Gaza. And by the way, do you know that while they were outside of Gaza, there was a convoy of Israeli trucks that literally delivered two tons of food? to Gaza the same day. They were already there unloading the food while Greta Thunberg, I’m not even exaggerating, while Greta Thunberg and her flotilla of misfit D-bags were taking selfies on their diesel engine powered sailboat that they never actually unfurled the sails because none of their little attention seeking celebrities actually knew how to sail. I am not making this up.
SPEAKER 15 :
Didn’t I also hear that they consumed a lot of what they were going to?
SPEAKER 20 :
They literally did. They ate the aid. They ate it? They only had a little bit of food that they were going to pretend to give to starving Gazans.
SPEAKER 15 :
And Israel still gave them a sandwich.
SPEAKER 20 :
There’s a picture of her. I have it on my newsletter of her smiling, wearing a goofy hat, and they’re giving her a sandwich.
SPEAKER 15 :
Astounding.
SPEAKER 20 :
I mean, she is a vapid, obnoxious brat. And it is embarrassing. I give her no excuses for anything. She does this willingly. And they said that they were going to have them watch October 7th footage. And she refused to do it. And she was like, I’m not watching that propaganda. How is it propaganda when it’s literally Hamas’s own video footage? I mean, it wasn’t Israel that took it. They literally got it from Hamas fighters. She is the David Hogg. She’s the female David Hogg. Oh my gosh. What happens if you put David Hogg and Greta Thunberg together? You would get like a dumb Voltron baby of stupidity. Oh my gosh. I think I’m going to have to tweet that. You would get a dumb Voltron baby of stupidity. Oh my gosh. We have more on the way. I can’t even deal. I don’t want to give any of them any ideas. Heaven help us all. You have to karaoke the doo-doos. If you don’t do it, you get deported. Yes, I know it’s a British band, but these are the rules, man. If President Dana, if you hear this song, Hungry Like the Wolf, and you do not karaoke the doo-doos, you gotta go, man. Sorry.
SPEAKER 15 :
Sometimes it just happens automatically without you even thinking about it.
SPEAKER 20 :
The album Pet Sounds from the… This is so sad. The Beach Boys is trending. The Brian Wilson… Pet Sounds is amazing. And now everybody’s fighting over the Beatles and the Beach Boys again. If you had to pick, Kane, pick one.
SPEAKER 1 :
What?
SPEAKER 20 :
Beatles or Beach Boys. Only one can stay on the planet.
SPEAKER 15 :
Beatles or Beach Boys? Oh, man.
SPEAKER 20 :
Only one can stay on the planet.
SPEAKER 15 :
I’m going to have to say Beach Boys have to stay.
SPEAKER 20 :
If you had to pick, Steve, who gets to stay on the planet? Beatles or Beach Boys?
SPEAKER 03 :
I’m going to go Beatles just because of their influence.
SPEAKER 15 :
I actually don’t know. These young kids, all I care about is influence. These young kids.
SPEAKER 20 :
Are you going to be a tiebreaker here? I don’t know. I’m like in the middle, man.
SPEAKER 15 :
What?
SPEAKER 20 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
It’s not like you’d be on the fence of anything.
SPEAKER 20 :
I know. I mean, who have I listened to more? The Beatles, I think. But whose music have I found most profound? Maybe the Beach Boys. Although, Hey Jude was a great track. A Little Help for My Friends, even though that’s Ringo.
SPEAKER 15 :
That’s why this is a difficult choice.
SPEAKER 20 :
Those were great tracks. Eleanor Rigby’s great. I like that, but I mean, God only knows. Oh, my gosh.
SPEAKER 15 :
You’re disqualified.
SPEAKER 20 :
That’s like one of the best songs that’s ever been written on God’s green earth.
SPEAKER 15 :
You’ve got to make that decision.
SPEAKER 20 :
Oh, you can’t make me make that decision. It’s my game. No, I can’t. I don’t know what to do. I’m curious as to what you all think. If we had the chat going today, it could be like chat determines it.
SPEAKER 15 :
You know what?
SPEAKER 20 :
Monday, the chat’s going to determine this.
SPEAKER 15 :
I like the Beatles, but I mean, there’s a lot of fun music with the Beach Boys. Really… paints a picture of a, you know, part of life.
SPEAKER 20 :
It sounds like summertime at the beach. Like, and I don’t, I’m not a Will Smith fan because he messed all that up, but his song summertime with DJ Jazzy Jeff, that was the song of summer from my childhood.
SPEAKER 15 :
That was good.
SPEAKER 20 :
You hear that song and you’re like, man, it’s time for a cookout. That was good. All right. Today in stupidity, Cain.
SPEAKER 15 :
All right. It looks like L.A. school superintendent Alberto Carvalho says, you know what?
SPEAKER 20 :
What is that name?
SPEAKER 15 :
Alberto Carvalho.
SPEAKER 20 :
Oh, okay.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah. He doesn’t like to cooperate with ICE and he’s making it public for crying out loud.
SPEAKER 08 :
Who in their right mind would accept that reality? Someone to be reassuring to our community. Every single graduation site is a protected site. I have directed our own police force to redouble their efforts and establish perimeters of safety around graduation sites to intervene and interfere. with any federal agency who may want to take action during these joyous times. I feel like he’s going to mess around and find out, really.
