3 (31s):
Thank you for gathering. My name is Damian Williams and I the United States Attorney here in the Southern District of New York. Today we are announcing campaign finance, bribery, and conspiracy charges against Eric Adams, the mayor of New York City. As the indictment alleges, mayor Adams engaged in a long running conspiracy in which he solicited and knowingly accepted illegal campaign contributions from foreign donors and corporations. As we allege, mayor Adams took these contributions, even though he knew they were illegal, and even though he knew these contributions were attempts by a Turkish government official and Turkish businessmen to buy influence with him.

3 (1m 11s):
We also alleged that the mayor sought and accepted well over $100,000 in luxury travel benefits from some of the same foreign actors who arrange many of the illegal campaign contributions. These benefits included free international business class flights and opulent hotel rooms in foreign cities. The mayor had a duty to disclose these gifts on his annual public disclosure forms so that the public could see who was giving him what. But as we allege, year after year after year, he kept the public in the dark. He told the public he received no gifts even though he was secretly being showered with them.

3 (1m 52s):
We allege that Adams accepted these benefits knowing that they were given to him because of his position. And in exchange for some of those improper benefits, he intervened in the New York City Fire Department’s inspection process for a building owned and operated by the Turkish government, allowing it to open even though it had not passed the fire inspection.

4 (2m 12s):
So this is some of the latest with Eric Adams, who is, he’s being charged with all kinds of what, I guess they’re trying to say. He’s been under the influence of Turkey this entire time. So he’s getting all of these different charges against him, and that’s just some of the latest with it. Welcome to the, the radio program. It’s Thursday. Dana Lash with you. And we were following this story. I think there’s a lot of discussion that it’s because a lot of the things that Eric Adams had said about illegal immigration, et cetera, and that it’s the illegal immigration aspect of it. That that’s, that’s why like right after he said it, then that’s why he started, that’s why they started investigating him.

4 (2m 59s):
’cause it’s been like 10 months that they’ve been investigating him at this point. I think so. The, and we’re gonna follow up with all of this stuff. He just had a press conference where he was getting heckled at some of it. It was a really wild press conference. And the feds are laying out all the charges now. They were saying that he was taking bribes and that he wasn’t disclosing well, it was basically a constituted bribes and that he was, he’s taking bribes and he was basically in the pocket of Turkey this whole time. So Welcome to the program, we got a radio show to do. Other people apparently in this orbit need to be notified of that. You can find us over at Substack as well. We got a lot of stuff to hit, including the disastrous remarks from Kamala Harris where she, she made a speech and I talked about some of it last night on Fox.

4 (3m 45s):
And it was fairly ridiculous, the speech that she gave. And so this a just, just, I feel like Democrats are kind of falling apart when they’re not attacking themselves really. When they’re not attacking themselves, they’re entirely falling apart. So it’s, this is just some of the latest that we have and we’re gonna be, you know, sorry, we’re, we’re, we’re bringing it to you as we get it. But those charges that came out, I don don’t know if, I think that it’s related to his, his remarks on i on immigration. don don’t know if that’s like a conspiracy theory or not. I mean, he said some pretty crazy stuff before So I don’t believe that. He’s like some sort of hero of the right, or even really an ally of the right.

4 (4m 28s):
But, you know, I mean, he, he took bribes apparently. I mean, he was, a lot of it was like upgrades on flights and free stays when he would travel. And apparently he like always traveled through Turkey, et cetera, things of that nature. I wanted to play some audio for you of Kamala Harris’s, her disastrous remarks that she gave. ’cause she’s campaigning and she was trying, she did this sit down interview with Stephanie Rule, who was in a weird outfit. It’s like, don’t dress like one day Wednesday. Adams and red pumps, like when you’re trying to do a serious sit down, that’s fashion wear. That’s not anchor wear. But she did this weird sit down interview with Kamala Harris and they were in, I don’t know what the setting was. It was like they were in a Home Depot in the back room of a Home Depot.

4 (5m 9s):
But audio soundbite three is some of her. She spoke, this was at her fundraiser. So we have a, she had, she did two different things. She had the interview with M-S-N-B-C and then she also gave a campaign speech. This is part of her campaign speech. and I, just like I said last night, I don’t speak drunk Hallmark.

5 (5m 26s):
We need to guard that spirit. We have to guard that spirit. Let it always inspire us. Let it always be the source of our optimism, which is that spirit that is so uniquely American. And let that then inspire us by helping us to be inspired to solve the problems that so many face, including our small business owners.

4 (5m 59s):
Yeah.

6 (6m 0s):
Do we have the transcripts?

4 (6m 4s):
Yeah, apparently, whatever that is. Whatever. but wasn, whatever her remarks were there. What that, what do this is supposed to be about the economy. I don’t understand what it she’s talking about. When she says guard the spirit, what the hell does that mean? What does it mean to guard ones spirit? What does that she talking about? The spirit of American entrepreneurship. Because don don’t think that she understands it. If that’s what she’s talking about, you know, she doesn’t understand it. Is it the spirit of American guardianship? I I, I don’t know. don don’t know. I don’t know what that meant. I really don’t. I mean, she has no answer, no answer to anything. This is wait, audio soundbite two.

4 (6m 44s):
This is just when she keeps discussing, she the failed. And we’re gonna talk more about this, but I just gotta get these soundbites outta my system. Audio soundbite. Two,

5 (6m 52s):
We just need to move past the failed policies that we have proven don’t work.

4 (7m 4s):
I don’t even know what that means. She’s part of the pol someone tell her that she’s in the White House. I mean, she’s in Right? She’s still vice president. I didn’t fall down the steps this morning and like hit my head hard and you know, now I don’t understand what’s happening in the world. Correct, correct, correct. Yeah. don don’t know. I I don’t don don’t know what don don’t even know what, what half of what she’s don don’t even what this means. We need to move past the failed policies that prove. So is she indicting herself in this? I’m cur I’m very confused. don don’t know. Is she indicting herself in this? I’m not quite sure. Yeah. I I just know that this is the kind of stuff that does not resonate when you’re talking to people about the economy.

4 (7m 44s):
You better know what the hell you’re talking about because you’re talking to people who they’re, they’re struggling right now. I, I heard there was a soundbite, but wasn played yesterday somewhere. Not here, but I had heard it where it was one of her surrogates saying that people are misremembering. Yeah. The Trump economy. And that I heard that and it made me so angry when her surrogates are insisting that we are, that, that people are, are misremembering the Trump economy. I have that audio. Can you play that real quick? Because this right here, when you combine this is the messaging that they’re putting out that you all are stupid and that you can’t remember anything.

4 (8m 29s):
That you’re stupid, you’re misremembering your own bank account. And also, you know, we gotta guard the spirit. That’s what you’re getting from this administration. Listen to this. So this is one of her official campaign spokespeople. Listen, Chris Coons.

7 (8m 41s):
Yeah. Part of it is that Americans, when you ask the question, are you better off today than you were four years ago? Many Americans misremember just how bad the economy was four years ago. What?

4 (8m 52s):
Hmm.

6 (8m 53s):
Just misremembering.

4 (8m 54s):
What does that mean? Misremembering?

6 (8m 57s):
Is that called forgetting?

4 (8m 59s):
Yeah. I mean that’s, that’s, I would imagine that it’s that it’s called that. It’s called forgetting. Misremembering. We’re not misremembering anything. People are broke as hell. They’re broke. They can’t afford anything and they can’t afford anything because of this god awful administration. People are stressed to the max because this administration is driving everyone into an early grave because they’re, they’re, they’re stressing everybody out with the economy. They’re stressing people out with the possibility of taxes. And then we have this, you know, pick me girl who is the vice president of the United States. I’ve never seen anyone so damn lazy who worked so little in their life that got handouts to get to where she is.

4 (9m 40s):
’cause it’s exactly what it is she gave us. Every time she sits here and says that she’s from the middle class, that angers me. You’re not from the middle class. You do. You guys know that before she started her illustrious story about being bused, that she went to a ridiculously expensive primary school. That’s like $25,000 a term. Her, she had two PhD parents that work in Ivy League universities. They lived in one of the wealthiest areas in Berkeley, California. And she’s gonna sit here and try to act like she’s one of you. That she’s middle class. She’s worked in the public sector ever since she was an adult. She’s never worked in the private sector ever. She’s always been in the, she’s always been on the government.

4 (10m 20s):
Tet always, these are people who have no idea what it means to build anything. These are people who have no idea the stresses of small business and making payroll and hiring and being the first to, to arrive in the last to leave. And they don’t understand any of this. And that’s why she sounds like a damn drunk Hallmark card whenever she talks about the economy. She doesn’t understand what payroll taxes are. I don’t believe she does. don don’t even think she could define capital gains if her life depended on it. She doesn’t understand basic e anything base related to business or basic economic principles. She doesn’t understand it. She has the mentality of a barely educated college freshman who’s a Marxist and has yet to take an econ class because everything she talks about relating to the economy reflects that everything that she has proposed so far, when you know, I mean, mostly it’s vagaries, but everything that she has proposed thus far has been, I mean, when you follow it to its logical conclusion, it is the utter destruction of the American economy.

4 (11m 21s):
She was going off on tariffs. She was going off on and, and look, tariffs. That’s a little bit of a nuanced area. She couldn’t even define a tariff if her life depended upon it. I, it angers me, it pisses me off as a woman. Do you know why? Because women, I don’t mind if you have a Margaret Thatcher type president, but you’re gonna get a horrible woman in that office. And then women are never gonna be able to get that office again. At least in my lifetime, because we’re gonna have blown our shot. Because we have someone who is, who’s a barely literate, who, who’s gotten to where she is because she checks boxes. Because she is a political identity. That’s why don’t act like it’s, everything I’m saying is offensive because it’s true.

4 (12m 3s):
And the reason people are offended because it’s true. And they have to admit, wow, we only want this person because of completely shallow cosmetic things that they were born with and couldn’t change. Has nothing to do with merit. Nothing. Our partners that help bring you free radio, it’s the folks over at Tax Network, USA they work with and work with you to deal with the Government Theft Agency.

And now all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s quick five.

4 (14m 54s):
So the courts blocked Ken Paxton’s appeal. They’re gonna have a gun ban at the state fair of Texas, which has been one of the most peaceful and least crime affected areas in all of the United States of America, particularly Texas. There’s no crime at all whatsoever that ever happens in Arlington, Texas. True. There’s never been any crime that’s ever happened at the state fair of Texas. And I’m sure that they have more than enough resources to keep everyone safe from the gang bangers and the drug dealers that don’t exist and are prevalent in the area when people go and are disarmed. So go and eat your giant meat on a stick. Don’t get shot. Everything

12 (15m 26s):
You said was false

4 (15m 28s):
Maybe is it, is it fake news or is it not? Nobody knows. Do they? Yeah. The state court of appeals. So he’s taken it all the way up. Go Paxton. Also Colorado tops the United States in cocaine use again. And honestly, if I had to live next to some of the dirty hippies that are now like all throughout Colorado with their pot shops, I’d probably have to use cocaine too. Marks the second time in three years that Colorado tops the country and admitted cocaine use. People are just like, yeah, we’re on cocaine. So, and makes sense of Venezuelan games and everything in there. Well, yeah. Six people are hurt in an explosion from an intentionally set IED as opposed to an accidentally set IED outta a Santa Monica courthouse in California.

4 (16m 9s):
you know, you don’t accidentally set your IEDs, the man, and this is just the headline over at a BC News, the story, but wasn probably headlined by the editor, but it took three people to write 500 words. The explosion was around 8:48 AM Wednesday, the Santa Maria Courthouse in Santa Barbara. And it was a small, I mean, they, they said it, it was an explosion. That’s why they got such crazy security of courthouses. Let’s see, China test fires and intercontinental ballistic missile into the Pacific Ocean. I’m sure they meant for it to go into the atmosphere, but it probably just straight the hell up just shot into the water because it’s China. Also, Nancy Pelosi’s husband, in what I’m sure is just a total coincidence, sold more than $500,000 worth of Visa stock just weeks before the Department of Justice’s antitrust lawsuit.

4 (16m 56s):
you know, it’s just, he’s got very good in instincts and I’m sure he doesn’t trade on his wife’s insider knowledge at all whatsoever. you know, the guy who was assaulted in his underwear by another guy who, I’m not a conspiracy theorist, was it his boyfriend? Don Don’t know, but he was a BLM Marxist progressive antitrust cops also alleged that Visa was forcing financial tech firms to work with it by threatening to penalize people who don’t like Democrats. Also, A OC says that Eric Adams should resign as New York City mayor for the good of the city amid federal probes. you know who they wanna get in, don’t you? And we’re gonna talk about this. Andrew Cuomo is looking at his comeback. So who do you want as mayor of New York City?

4 (17m 37s):
A guy that maybe, is it considered a bribe or was it treatment? don don’t know. Do I care? Maybe, maybe not. But would you rather have that guy in office that took some money from Turkey? Or the guy who killed all your grandparents with his policies? I don’t, I mean, literally killed them. He took his policies, fashioned them into a stake and stabbed your grandparents in the chest like they were Nosferatu, So, I. Don’t know. Like who do you want in office? Andrew Cuomo. Or do you want Eric Adams, the guy who helped create all of the problems that New York is dealing with now? Or Eric Adams, who seems like a less annoying of a Marxist, not maybe all the way a Marxist willing to say some stuff about illegal immigration.

4 (18m 18s):
Did he take money from Turkey? Nah, I, the only thing, the only difference with Eric Adams and all the other New York Democrats is Eric Adams is dumb enough to get caught. That’s literally the only thing. ’cause all these cats have taken this kind of, they’ve taken upgrades, they’ve taken free trips, they’ve taken hotel stays. Literally every single one of them, he just got caught. That’s the reality of it. We’re gonna talk about that coming up. And we’re also gonna get into Kamala Harris and the holistic housing market.

Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. Do you guys, what’s your favorite? Ka What’s your favorite book of the Bible?

11 (21m 38s):
Favorite book of the Bible? Man, that’s a tough one because I do like Psalms. You go back to that one a lot for like

4 (21m 45s):
Peace

11 (21m 45s):
Psalms. Yeah, peace Psalm. Yeah. Piece Psalms, So. I. Think it’d be Psalms. There’s a lot of books there and a lot of things to pull from. Mm

4 (21m 51s):
I I’m partial to Ephesians. Yeah, but what about those Ecclesiastes? Huh? you know the book about the Ecclesiastes people? Oh, oh wait a minute. That’s just, I apparently that’s what Kamala Harris, that’s, she thinks that that’s Old Testament scripture. I’m not kidding. Audio soundbite one.

5 (22m 11s):
You know, there’s a time for patience and there’s a time for impatience that’s not in Ecclesiastes, but, but just want off script for a minute, mayor

4 (22m 24s):
The Ecclesiastes, you know, remember when they got, I feel like I say this a lot. Do you remember when, do you remember when they got mad at Trump for, what did he say? Two Corinthians? Yeah. Is that what he said? It’s not one but two Corinthians, something like that. Right? Or second Timothy said, he said two Timothy I. think I. Think it was two Timothy. Was it? Was it that it was one of ’em? I don’t remember. It was one of ’em. Oh, my gosh. And the left. The left was, can you believe Trump doesn’t know this biblical book? He doesn’t know this book of the Bible. Can you believe it? And they just lost their minds. Well what about the Ecclesiastic people? I mean that’s, it’s, it’s goofy, right?

4 (23m 6s):
And it just goes to show you that she Yeah, it’s, you know, the Ecclesiastes that’s actually sounds like a great theological punk band name. Where they take, it’s like they take the book of Psalms and they turn it into punk songs and their first album is called Punk Psalms. Oh, we’re just writing it right here and there. That’d be great. The last, the

11 (23m 31s):
Last letter is an X in

4 (23m 32s):
The That’s

11 (23m 33s):
Right. It can’t be a cs. That’s right.

4 (23m 35s):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ecclesiastes right? That’s right. Oh. my gosh. That actually would be, how is that not a punk band? Right? That actually would be really great. I can see them opening up. I can see them playing like the Vatican. you know, you like go out there and see Peter. We’re the Ecclesiastes. I can see it, man. I would totally go to that show. Wouldn’t you go to that show? It’s just all Psalms punk style that actually I wanna do it. I mean, I know enough power chords and I can play rhythm guitar poorly enough that I could be a punk. I could be a punk guitarist. Right. I can do it.

11 (24m 12s):
And the next book in the Bible song of Solomon. Right. So

4 (24m 15s):
There it’s, that’s the second album. Yeah,

11 (24m 17s):
That’s what it is. Yeah. A follow up.

4 (24m 19s):
And then in the style of paranoid Android, just have a character. Just have a song called Solomon. It’s Ecclesiastes. Sounds great, doesn’t it? It’s a great, that’s a great idea. I can’t believe no one’s done that yet. So she actually, she didn’t come up with that idea. But anyway,

11 (24m 36s):
It’s like that band Penton or what was the

4 (24m 38s):
Pentatonics? I liked them for like five seconds and then I was like, okay, I’m done with it. I can only take so much. you know, like there’s certain types of music that for five seconds I’m like, this is the greatest. And then it’s too much.

11 (24m 50s):
I revisit during the holidays.

4 (24m 52s):
Really? Yeah. I don’t like, I don’t, no,

11 (24m 54s):
It’s usually in playlists and it pops up.

4 (24m 57s):
I don’t like it here and there. I mean I don’t not, I don’t dislike it. I just, it’s not my jam. I like the old cruisers.

11 (25m 3s):
Yeah, yeah. It’s not my jam, but I’ll run across it. During the holidays

4 (25m 5s):
When we were, when I was a little kid, I have no idea how we got on the subject. When I was a little kid. My mom would, they would put her and my stepdad would have he, because he was, he had a record player. He was one of those people. He was a vinyl is a vinyl person. And he would play all kinds of like old Christmas music on these albums, these vinyl albums. And so And we, and that’s how you decorate the tree and all that stuff. And so now I have to have that music around Christmas. you know what I mean? Ecclesiastes. Yeah. Ecclesiastes. Can you imagine the Ecclesiastes Christmas punk? That’s amazing. Like a way in a manger but punk style.

4 (25m 46s):
That’s so cool. Like, like a really fast drum Oh. my gosh. Like I’m already like imagining it in my head. And guess. And you wouldn’t have to pay royalties ’cause it’s kind of like considered American standard, right? Right. Dude for reels. I can’t believe that hasn’t been done. Trademark copyright.

11 (26m 4s):
I’m gonna work on that right now.

4 (26m 6s):
I’m saying I’ve got guitars. I mean I can play, you know, I can make it, at least one part of it happen. I could play drums poorly enough where I could put those tracks down. Can’t play bass to save my life unless it’s like, you know, three, three chords. That’s about it. But there you go. Where are we going? That’s okay. The cle, you guys would buy that album, I feel like. I feel like you would. Can you imagine Oh? my gosh. And you could, oh I’m just, I I need to stop ’cause I’m like going on and on and on. Alright, So I. Wanna bring the tugboat back to shore here briefly, because Georgia, a new survey came out. It’s not looking so hot for the Harris.

4 (26m 47s):
It’s not, it’s A-C-B-S-U gov poll. you know, CBS, which is the C stands for conservative, you guys remember that, right? The C stands for conservative, so C-C-B-S-U gov poll shows. Now it’s within a margin of error. But I will note something. This was 1,441 registered voters and it has Trump 51 to Harris’ 49. Now margin of error on this was three five was 3.5. But still, why do I cite this? Because the last survey, if you will give me a moment that I saw had had them tied like literally, except it was like 0.5.

4 (27m 34s):
So this survey and indicates, and the last one was likely voters and not registered voters. And, but wasn, I want to say that that survey was like a Rasmussen, I think maybe. No, no, no. It wasn’t a Rasmussen it, that last one was a, I think it was a agar group. So anyway, long story short, I feel like, you know, this one shows like, you know, a a two point gr bit of growth, but it’s not, Georgia’s not certain. And Trump needs to really focus. I think he didn’t he just do an event in Georgia? He needs to focus on Georgia. He needs to, and stick to the hits, stick to the issues that voters care about.

4 (28m 16s):
But Harris is freaking out because what have I, what one of, what’s one of the things that we’ve talked about ever since she picked walls as her second banana, they completely just glossed over Josh Shapiro and almost made it seem like they weren’t making a play for Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania’s electoral votes. Almost like they thought, well, we’re just gonna go straight for Georgia, maybe we’ll get Pennsylvania, maybe we won’t. But it, it, it was really clear that their play was to go for Georgia over Pennsylvania. So it’s kind of interesting. And now like looking at this, how this is, it’s not working out for them that it doesn’t look like their place worked thus far.

4 (29m 3s):
And probably be, and this probably because I mean her messaging’s really bad. Yeah, when they were tied, the last survey was on September 14th when it came out. And that showed them really at like 48. 48. But he, but like he was like 48.5 and she was 48. So you know, there’s, there they were right there. And now it looks like he’s kind of pulling away from her. Just I’m not, it’s not enough to be a trend yet, but it’s enough to keep an eye on, I think. But that’s not, that’s not a good poll for Harris. Not at all. Not a good poll for her. Marist has a survey out for Arizona.

4 (29m 44s):
Trump is plus one again, still within the margin of error. The margin of error is 3.8 points on this. So he’s only plus one. So they’re tied, they’re they’re, they’re tied. It was Harris that she, the last survey that they measured, well, amongst independents, the last survey that they measured amongst independence was Harris 51, Trump 47. And those are only likely voters for independence. And Joe and Biden carried independence by plus nine in that state four years ago. So these are kind of already, you know, left-leaning independence. Now it’s, they’re still leaning towards Harris, but less so. So, but these are likely voters, not registered voters.

4 (30m 28s):
So 50 to 49 with this latest marris poll from Arizona. and I was looking at the cross tabs for this one. And like I said, 3.8 margin of error. I mean there, this is not a huge lead for him with this survey, but it looks like they’re tied and they looked at 1,264 people that they surveyed and they conducted that through September 19th and 24th. And they, they also used text and landline for this too. So they’ve got 11 electoral votes for Arizona. And very interesting how the independence, they’re not as supportive of Harris as they were Biden, which they have the same policies.

4 (31m 8s):
I mean, she’s literally the same person, just a woman. Now this is the same person, it’s the same. I mean, this is why you have to vote for the set of policies that they’re looking to advance and not the person or personality if that’s like an issue for people. But man alive, it’s, it’s close. I wanted to hit Coca-Cola. Do you guys hear about Coca-Cola? Do you hear about this? don? Don’t drink Coca-Cola because I’m a Pepsi drinker. So apparently there was a dude on Facebook who was at a machine in a Coca-Cola store where you can personalize the, like you can write your name on the Coke can or write something on the Coke can, and it personalizes it in the machine, which is actually kind of neat.

4 (31m 50s):
And he was able to write Allah and Buddha and Satan, but he couldn’t write Jesus. And when he tried to write Jesus, it said, sadly, we cannot automatically allow this text on the can. If you feel it’s a mistake, please, please speak to a state rep now. And then there were other people saying that you can write, you know, other political names, but you couldn’t write where you kane’s grinning. Like you couldn’t write Trump or do something like that. Right? Well, yeah. Or

11 (32m 19s):
Yeah, Jesus and all that. See, here’s my problem with it is that there are, I I have friends named Jesus.

4 (32m 25s):
Yeah, Jesus is an actual name. Yeah.

11 (32m 27s):
Like why they can’t even get that on the cut. Everyone

4 (32m 30s):
Else can. I feel that’s, I feel like that’s anti-immigrant.

11 (32m 33s):
It it definitely is anti i

4 (32m 35s):
Anti-immigrant. Thank jingoistic.

11 (32m 37s):
Yeah. Thank you for bringing light

4 (32m 38s):
Together. You’re welcome. It’s in whatever other ing, egoistic isms that they wanna add to it to not allow Jesus to be on it. Apparently though, too, you can’t write like Trump 24 on it. That’s dumb. Yeah, I don’t know. they said that they’ve ban any monikers that are trademarked political in nature, names of countries, celebrities, religious figures, as well as anything that could be considered offensive for other reasons. And now it’s stupid. See now it’s, they tried to be so PC that it’s dumb. Now you can’t write. But I think you could, it allows Elon Musk’s name and it allows I think a couple of other names.

4 (33m 18s):
I think it allowed Harris, but it didn’t allow Trump. So some people are saying that is it’s woke. Is it? It might be. Do I, can I be real? Do I care? I don’t think so. If

11 (33m 30s):
Woke equals fascist, then yes, that would be correct.

4 (33m 34s):
I just think that some people, I don’t even know why some people continue to choose life for themselves. If you’re so miserable that you’re offended by a name on a Coke can, how are you alive? Like, how are you living? And you’re just not offended to like actually into the grave? How, how? Right? How, how are you here? I don’t get those people right. They’re offended by everything. Everything. How in the hell are you alive?

13 (34m 4s):
I’m

4 (34m 4s):
So offended. They’re the people who are mad over butter and pancakes, syrup, and names on

13 (34m 8s):
Soda. What? We can’t have trump on a can of soda. That’s bad. What is

4 (34m 17s):
Your damage? What is wrong with these people? Do you know? I I I’m not political all the time. I do turn it off. I happen to believe certain things and I am a certain way and it’s just how I am. But I don’t always talk about politics. and I don’t always, you know, look for political fights and everything. And one of the things that makes me so mad is that when I try to walk away from it, somebody out there in meet space, a leftist is always trying to like, make it a reality. Make it a real thing. you know, like we got a story coming up where this kid got in trouble at his school because he made a gun out of soda cans. But no, he didn’t like actually fashion a fire like a gun that can be fired from soda cans.

4 (34m 59s):
He laid out, literally laid out what I’m assuming are full cans of Dr. Pepper on a bed in the shape of a rifle. Meaning that it looked like a lowercase k That’s it. And he posted it on TikTok and he’s 13 years old. He does what? 13 years old? What 13 year olds do, posted on TikTok. And someone at his school got offended and they suspended this kid. Not only did they suspend him, but he’s got two marks on his permanent record. One is for cyber bullying and I can’t. And he, he got a si like someone was offended by a picture that they saw. And so that amounts to cyber bullying somehow.

4 (35m 42s):
And that’s a permanent, that’s a permanent mark on his record. So that’s one, one of the marks he got. And the other one was making a school threat. Even though he never made any threats. That’s the thing. He never made any threats to anybody, to any school, to any person, nothing. No bullying took place. We’re gonna talk about this coming up. It’s wild. Our partners over at Byrna a gun, B-Y-R-N-A, if you, it’s always good to have options for self-defense.

Welcome to the program. Dana Lash here with you. Top of this second hour. And you can watch the simulcast of the program over at Channel 3 47 Direct tv. You can also find us on x on Rumble, where the discussion happens. And on Substack chapter and verse is the name of my official newsletter. you can go and subscribe. Always new stuff out on the reg. Got something I always send, try to send out something that’s, I’ve been trying to make more of an effort to send something out at least once a week. That’s totally nonpolitical. And we usually do like a, a culture post that’s strictly just about stuff that I’m watching, reading, playing, listening to.

4 (43m 13s):
And so we cover all of that. So you got New Mozart, you got new Mel Gibson, you got the South Korean Beatles. Yeah. You got all yeah. Be, yeah. Tulsa King, new Season, new Cure album, all that, all that listed in it. So yeah, I know lots of good stuff happening right? South Korean Beatles. Well, because, you know, ’cause I’m, hang on, I’m gonna get to the meat and potatoes in a minute. ’cause I love Japanese punk and I. Like what? Like South Korea’s like, been doing a lot of experimentation with like, you know, fifties, sixties type sounds and the, it’s a really interesting band. This group that I’ve got linked that’ll come that’s, that is sending out with us.

4 (43m 53s):
So it’s really good. and I also linked to one of my favorite Japanese rockabilly artists too. So it’s weird, but it’s fun. you know, you need a break, you need a, you know, pallet cleanser. Alright, so as we roll, got a few things I gotta tell you. Like when the Eric Adams stuff hit, I’m not an Eric Adams fan, but I’m not an Eric Adams hater. I’m ambivalent. Like truly I am. I am ambivalent about it. He’s charged with bribery and wire fraud and I was listening to the, to the charges on this. And he, you know, frankly kind of, it just don don’t know it just, he’s a Democrat.

4 (44m 36s):
I’m like, I expect Democrats to do this stuff. I mean, honestly, if I’m being real, I expect politicians in general just to be, I just think when you’re in office for a certain amount of time, you’re weird. Nobody, you have to be weird to be in office that long. Yeah, I, I hate it. I would hate it. Think about it. and I know there’s some people who go with the best of intentions, right? But I think when they get there, something changes them. Like they become infected like a virus. I don’t know what it is. And, and then they just like seek out this, these accolades and they seek it out. And it’s like they get, I fame can be addicting and so can praise.

4 (45m 18s):
Praise is a hor can be a horrible drug for us. Not for the Lord, but for us humans. It could be a horrible drug. and I think some people, if they do one thing right, they get addicted to the praise and then they constantly seek accolades and then that turns them into like, shadows of their former selves and then they become grifters. don don’t know. Maybe I’m just very, very cynical. Deservedly so. It’s an earned cynicism. But I can’t imagine anyone that would want to be in office for as long as some of these cats are in office for or want to be in government for as long as some of these people are in government for, you know, the amount of ring kissing and buck kissing you have to do in order to be in it that long. I can’t stand to go to more than one.

4 (45m 60s):
Like, you know, the Christmas season when it comes around, I can, I can’t stand to go to more than like one or two Christmas parties a season because I just get, I am a situational extrovert. It’s one thing to be on a stage in front of tons of people or behind a mic. But when it gets to those one-on-one things I can’t hang, it’s, I’m as awkward as get out and just drains my energy. I can’t, I mean, if you’ve ever met me in a small setting, you’re gonna be like, she, how is she? She’s so weird. She’s the most awkward person we’ve ever met. And it’s a bit much, no, it’s totally accurate. Oh, and I and I have no filter. And So I immediately will say things like, So I. Guess we’re supposed to talk about the weather because I don’t know you.

4 (46m 41s):
I mean, I just, you know, and what else are you gonna say? It’s weird. I can’t stand when, when things are awkward. So I’m like, if it’s gonna be awkward, let it at least be awkward for a reason. Right? Like, let’s, let’s introduce something to really feel awkward about in this setting. So I just don don’t know how they do it. I, I’ve been to the, you know, I’ve been to the capitol, I’ve been, I’ve seen lawmakers and everything that they have to do. and I just don don’t know. I, there’s, I something’s wrong with them. I just have no, they’re different. I don’t think they’re human. When you stay in, I think if you’re in office for like 15 years, you officially cease to be a human.

4 (47m 22s):
You are an alien, you’re a martian. don don’t know what’s wrong. ’cause who wants to be there for that long? And you gotta be in DC you gotta be in DC And DC can be pretty if you’re a visitor for a short period of time. But when you have to live there, it’s a different story. Right? Totally different story. The first time I took it was the first, maybe it was the second time I took one of my kids to DC with me when I was doing one of the Sunday morning shows and I went in Saturday night and we get to our hotel and it was in the nice part of DC you know, is there one and I mean there were just, we when we drove around the corner to go to our air to go to our hotel. And it was, you know, right not, I mean not far from the capitol at all or the White House at all.

4 (48m 4s):
Go around the corner and there were all these people in the street and I, my my kids have seen homelessness before, but it’s off the chain in places like New York and DC and la like it is a whole different kind, a whole different level. Like you think you’ve seen homelessness, but not until you’ve seen people like tent cities on the sidewalk where you couldn’t even walk on the sidewalk. Like you actually have to walk into the road. ’cause there’s so many people on the sidewalk and the cops are just like, we can’t deal with it. It’s too much. When we turn the corner. It was like that, like just a block away from the hotel that we were at. And I’m like, well this is, this is what Democrats do. This is welcome to Democrat policies in action.

4 (48m 45s):
And it’s true. There’s nothing about anything that I’ve just said right there. That’s a lie. I’m not lying to my kid. It’s true. But it was wild to see these policies and I’m like, these are the people who’ve been here all this. He’s like, I they know they’re here, right? And I’m like, yeah, they know they’re here. He’s like, but they’re just right down there. and I’m like, yeah, they are. They’re, and they’ve been there for forever. They just, they become immune to everything. They, they, they, they just stay in that bubble. It’s weird. I think they’re weird. I mean, I’m not trying to sound mean, but I think it is mean when you, that’s why I think the voter is the term limit. don don’t like term limits because as much as they think it’s weird that people are in office for that long, I don’t want the government to take anything, any other decision making ability away from me.

4 (49m 26s):
No. You don’t get to determine how long someone stays in office. I agree with Hamilton and Adams and all of the other founders who were writing in the Federalist papers against government and post-term limits. Those are the people on whose side I come down and I. That’s our, that is up to our discretion. So, you know, that’s why we gotta be smart about it. ’cause we ultimately decide this. Anyway, my whole point in that is that I think Eric Adams is a product of his Democrat environment. He’s a product of Democrat politics. He’s a problem of a product of the Democrat party. He is a product of New York. Are you telling me that all of these other people who have occupied, you know, his honors office, that they’ve never engaged in anything because I don’t believe it.

4 (50m 10s):
He was just dumb enough or lackadaisical enough about hiding it that he just got caught. He just got caught. So what is it they were saying that he didn’t disclose all this stuff and that it amounted to influencing and we don’t want any influence in influences from foreign entities. Oh, unless you’re Hillary Clinton and you’re working with the, the Kremlin and a British spy to launder stories through the press and then merch them out so that then you can take the published stories that are predicated upon debunked oppo and then secure through an unlawful process, a surveillance warrant on an Innocent American because he has wrong think. Okay.

17 (50m 46s):
Or Hunter and

4 (50m 47s):
Joe Biden. Yeah. Or Hunter and Joe Biden. you know, I mean, come on, they’re But they’re special Hurricane. Oh, they’re special. They’re the specialists. D different D different. That is correct sir. It’s d different. But he’s a product of that whole environment. and I think the reason why they’re mad at him now is because of what he was saying about immigration. Right. The stuff that he had said about immigration before it does seem, you know, seems a little weird that he comes out, he’d said in 23 that, what did he say? That that, you know, it’s a never ending problem.

4 (51m 27s):
The issue that they’re all dealing with, with the deluge of illegal immigration. That it’s a never ending problem. Huh. And then immediately they started investigating him after that So don don’t know, I just feel like he had said quote, this issue will destroy New York City. He said that in September of last year, he said that it was being destroyed by the influx of 110,000 asylum seekers. This is New York Times from the southern border. He didn’t see a way to fix the issue. He said, let me tell you something, new Yorkers never in my life had a, and there’s video of this. Never in my life have I had a problem that I did not see an ending to. I don’t see an ending to this. It’ll destroy New York City the moment he says this.

4 (52m 8s):
Literally. Then in November then they started, they opened a major federal corruption investigation into his fundraising. And they were, they’re accusing him of receiving illegal donations from the Turkish government, which is tantamount to conspiring with the Turkish government Right after he says this audio soundbite 16. Now this was, this was September of 23. After, I mean a month and a half after he says this, then a federal investigation is opened into him. Listen,

18 (52m 41s):
I have been fighting injustice my entire life. That fight has continued as your mayor, despite our police, when the federal government did nothing. Well, he says

4 (52m 53s):
He is being targeted

18 (52m 54s):
Immigration policies, overloaded our shelter system with no relief. I put the people of New York before party and politics.

4 (53m 3s):
So he had, he was, and this was in September. This was just the, this was actually today the, the video where he made the statement that the New York Times quoted him as saying he was speaking at an outdoor event in September of last year. And that’s when he made those claims. And then right after that, right after that, the investigation was opened. So, I mean, I think it’s a bit of both. I think he did, he did he probably like take, because when I was, when you read the indictment, he was taking like one of the, for instance, when he flew, I, I can’t remember where he was flying. He flew somewhere and he flew through Turkey, and he got upgraded business class and, but wasn like an $8,000 upgrade. And then another one was like a $12,000 upgrade, and then he didn’t disclose it.

4 (53m 48s):
And they’re saying that, that that should have been disclosed and it’s illegal that it wasn’t. And as a result, you know, you’re, it, it, it could be considered for an influence. And then there were, when he would go and stay at different, like he stayed at the St. Regis I think when he didn’t he go to assemble or something? He stayed in St. Regis and, but wasn, you know, super swanky. It’s a super swanky hotel and apparently, but wasn comped for him. And he also got like an upgrade there and it was comped for him and all this stuff very, you know, expensive and he didn’t disclose it. and there’s other things, I mean, it’s not like, you know, he was selling access to the mayor oral office, really, you know, in exchange for blood diamonds or don don’t know stock in the Chinese company, but wasn taking over a giant cobalt mine in the Dominican Republic, or not Dominican, the people’s Democratic Republic of Congo, the way Hunter Biden did.

4 (54m 42s):
But hey, it’s D different, right? Yeah. And actually it’s Hunter Biden. If you wanna have a discussion of race, I think you could probably justifiably propose one there. But you know what, if just saying so he was getting heckled when he was given. I just don’t care. I mean, I, I, it’s the Democrat’s problem. Let them deal with it. I just think it’s funny. and I think Republicans should hammer at home that the moment that he started talking about immigration, that’s when Democrats decided he was a liability. All of a sudden they discovered that they don’t like foreign influence, but they love it all the other times that it doesn’t prove to be disadvantageous for them. You can’t have a Democrat out there causing waves on immigration in an election cycle. That’s what this is. So they’re trying to fix it.

4 (55m 22s):

Can we just like, do air guitar and like we are coming in with a little Metallica, we’re in a very musical mood right now. Yeah, it’s Thursday. We’re coming in towards the end of the week. And also we, we were playing on Kamala Harris’s, Eccle, Ecclesiastes Blunder Blunder. and I had an idea for a theological punk band that covers Psalms. Right, right. And so Kane ran it through AI and it’s actually, it’s not bad. Give it a You got it, we got it up. Yeah.

11 (1h 3m 24s):
It’s not licensed or anything

4 (1h 3m 25s):
So we can Yeah, we can totally play it. This is our Oh, you’re playing it. Okay. Go turn

20 (1h 3m 30s):
It up. It’s the Ecclesiastes

4 (1h 3m 35s):
Covering

20 (1h 3m 35s):
Psalm.

4 (1h 3m 37s):
Wait, wait til

20 (1h 3m 51s):
It’s not bad. Yeah,

I mean it’s ai.

It’s ai.

20 (1h 3m 59s):
Declare the decre. Lord,

11 (1h 4m 11s):
That’s nice.

4 (1h 4m 12s):
It’s actually, it’s actually not bad, dude. It’s actually not bad.

11 (1h 4m 15s):
I’m in, I didn’t think AI could do

4 (1h 4m 17s):
This. I didn’t either. I really wanted to hate it. I wanted to hate it so bad. I was always prejudiced against it. I am, I am technologically prejudiced. And So I was already prejudiced against it. And it, it actually is, is not bad. It’s actually pretty good. I’m not gonna lie. That’s, and

11 (1h 4m 37s):
Apparently AI improves itself. Like when you, you sort of edit the type of style, like remember we had first iterations of these songs and they were more like, like Irish punk sort of

4 (1h 4m 48s):
Drop kick Murphy ish. Yeah. It was like, it was like you had a bunch of people in an Irish pub who decided to set down their Guinness and then knock out a banner. Right. That’s what it, you know, and then this sound

11 (1h 4m 55s):
Like that. Then it sort of morphed into what we are hearing now. and I think there’s even more generations. It

4 (1h 4m 60s):
Sounded almost, it got into shanty territory. It did just a wee bit.

11 (1h 5m 5s):
It did. The Ecclesiastes,

4 (1h 5m 8s):
The Ecclesiastes. I, I like, I would see them, I would go to a dive bar where there’s probably not doors on the stalls in the women’s room. I would go there and watch that band. Absolutely. Yeah. So I mean we could do it. We, I mean, we were talking about how, I mean, I play instruments. I can play rhythm guitar poorly. I can play drums. Yeah. I could, you know, knock out something crude and you know, you know, could like, like a opening act at a dive bar. I could do that. But, you know, we ran it through AI for the purpose of time and it’s actually not bad. Not bad at all. Yeah,

8 (1h 5m 38s):
I’ve heard worse.

4 (1h 5m 40s):
I mean, and I love it even more because it’s ours. Yeah. So I. Don’t know. I feel like Yeah, that’s, that’s what I, I I I love it. I Can you play it again? Will you play it again please? I really like this song. It’s the Ecclesiastes, our theological punk band

20 (1h 5m 57s):
Declare decree. The Lord said,

4 (1h 6m 12s):
They just say things like

20 (1h 6m 13s):
These

4 (1h 6m 14s):
In a punkish context.

20 (1h 6m 16s):
It’s cooler.

4 (1h 6m 20s):
It’s actually not bad. It’s not bad. It’s a little bit, a little bit upbeat for me, but

20 (1h 6m 26s):
Therefore,

4 (1h 6m 28s):
Oh, it’s so good, dude. I would So I would so see them. It’s a jam man. That’s a jam. Not bad. Hey Steve,

8 (1h 6m 36s):
What’s up?

4 (1h 6m 37s):
Does that slap

8 (1h 6m 39s):
It does sound like a sea shanty a little bit though.

4 (1h 6m 42s):
See? Yeah, it did. It is a little sea shanty ish. Although

8 (1h 6m 45s):
When we were talking about Ecclesiastic So, I thought it sounded, that sounded like a something You majored in college, you know.

4 (1h 6m 51s):
Well, I mean, yes and no, but, but so Kamala Harris was trying, can we play her thing, her thing real quick? It’s real short. She was trying, don don’t know what she was trying to say. Ecclesiastes. And she got the name of the, she got the book wrong. Listen,

5 (1h 7m 4s):
You know, there’s a time for patience and there’s a timeframe impatience that’s not in Ecclesiastes, but, but

4 (1h 7m 12s):
Yes, that’s right. Ecclesiastes. Yeah. She knows Kamala Harris just referenced our punk band. Right? That’s right. So thanks Kamala. Yeah, thanks Kamala. I actually now, I mean it’s, I I I’m, I’m gonna actually take this to the nth degree because I’m really, I I actually like it. Alright. So in the spirit of punk bands, it’s like the most awkward segue ever in the spirit of punk bands. Have you ever heard of a Suic have suicide pod? It’s not a punk band. Actually, it’s a way to die. Like an actual way to die. This is, I think these things are terrifying.

4 (1h 7m 52s):
So the BBC, the British Broadcasting Company has a story of how police in Switzerland made multiple arrests after a woman reportedly ended her life using a So-called suicide pod, which almost sounds like an nx s song, but that’s blonde. It’s apparently the first case of its kind. Okay, so here’s where it gets super weird for me. I am fascinated by this story, and here’s why. When you think of suicide pod and like going to Merck yourself in a pod, I just think that I’m going into this like matrix type of environment where they have got them all lined up and you go lay and you, you press a button and it ha it like squirts gas in there.

4 (1h 8m 35s):
So this lady, she apparently had like, I guess a, a, a degenerative disease or something like that. And she had been sick for a long time. and I, I, no, I’m not in support of euthanasia. She had been sick for a long time and the, I guess she wanted to go into the suicide pod. So she’s 64 years old. She uses, she’s an American woman. And so she goes to this place out in the woods in northern Switzerland. So instead of going into this like matrix type environment, she’s literally out into the woods. They had this pod out in the forest and the maker of the Sarco suicide pod, they said that they wanted her to go under a canopy of trees.

4 (1h 9m 25s):
It was, it, it’s designed to allow a person inside to push a button and inject nitrogen gas into the sealed chamber. And then they fall asleep and then suffocate to death in a matter of minutes. So, and if you thought, if you wanted to know if the guy who made it looks nuts, he does, he, the guy who in who invented it is, you know, it, it looks nuts. So she’s out, you know, in the woods in Switzerland, in this space pod, and they put it out in the woods. So she gets in to the space pod or the, the, the suicide pod. And they said she pressed the button almost immediately. And it took like five minutes. I, they said that, you know, they could see her, she, they could tell when she went unconscious and her muscles were twitching.

4 (1h 10m 8s):
And then that said, the police showed up and they found a woman’s body in the pot. So I got a lot of questions also now too. Like, did they leave her there? Like how did that work? I mean, don’t you get it out? And, and also I know this is, this is how my mind works. Please don’t judge me. But you know what, the first thing I thought of when I saw it, there was a picture of it online and like, it’s o you know, it showed it open and it showed the guy invented it getting into it a

6 (1h 10m 33s):
Tanning bed.

4 (1h 10m 34s):
It does actually look like, it looks like an old tanning bed. Yes. But when you get in there just saying, not that I supported or ever would you have to know that it’s been used before. Ew. Is that weird?

6 (1h 10m 48s):
Well, you’re dying, so what?

4 (1h 10m 50s):
Yeah, but it’s weird though, right?

11 (1h 10m 53s):
Yeah. I guess if you’re,

4 (1h 10m 54s):
I mean, it’s weird that you’re going into a pod to die, but

11 (1h 10m 57s):
I think the mindset of people who are wanting to do this, they’re least concerned. They’re, the concern at the bottom of their list of concerns would be that someone else died there.

4 (1h 11m 8s):
Because I would be like, did someone crack their pants in here? No. No. Like, did they mess themselves in here? Like, you know, ’cause they’re bo like, when the body goes, you lose control of those functions, right? That’s true. So it’s like, ooh, was it icky? Like who had to clean that up? Did they clean it? Well, because can you, you’re in the pod and you’re pressing the button. Not that I would ever do this or suggest that you do this, it’s horrible. But what if you notice like some gunk in it, like, oh, they didn’t get this spot and then you’re dead. That sucks. That’s a horrible way to go. I don’t

11 (1h 11m 36s):
Think people are gonna be concerned with that.

4 (1h 11m 38s):
Honestly. That’s totally what I would be. I’m like,

11 (1h 11m 40s):
I’m getting in there to die. The fact that it might have a little gunk in there is probably gonna gonna be, you’re

4 (1h 11m 45s):
Getting into like a nasty like hobo pod. That’s gross. This So I mean that’s not what this, you’re getting getting in the pod to murk yourself. But shouldn’t it be a clean going? you know, it’s so weird. I mean, I feel bad for the lady who thought she had no other choice and it, and they, and they said that they put it out in the woods so she could look at the trees in the sky. I, or because it’s easier to hose it off. I don Dunno, just, oh man, it’s so weird. She, she cashed out her life savings and flew to Switzerland to do this. I and I don’t know. And it’s, it’s weird.

4 (1h 12m 27s):
This whole thing is weird. And now there’s like accusations towards the group Of course. It’s called The Last Resort. Who they said that they, that they wanted to, they spent her money and wanted it to be, they told her she would need it after she was dead. And they said that her family saying that they took advantage of her, that would, that’s one of the accusations. But the, the, the po this is just all so weird. It’s just so weird. And they said that when you get in it, it, it has a little voice that, that says quote, if you want to die, press this button. No. Yeah. A ajas France press gotta look at it.

4 (1h 13m 7s):
And that’s what it says. If you want to die, press this button. Is

11 (1h 13m 10s):
There another button that you just last minute decided you wanna live, that you press?

4 (1h 13m 15s):
Is the cleanliness not up to your standard press this button? Is the

11 (1h 13m 19s):
Lid locked until you decide to die? Or is it

4 (1h 13m 22s):
Yeah, I don’t, yeah, I guess it seals you up in there. Good lord. Ooh, it’s just so weird. Like you, you’re don don’t know, but it does also sound like a punk band suicide pod opening for the Ecclesiastes one disapproves of the other. Hmm. don don’t know. Steve says it looks like a bad transformer emphasis on trans, what? It does look like a bad, like seventies transformer. you know, it looks like a pager. A giant pager that’s out in the woods, right?

11 (1h 13m 55s):
A giant flip

4 (1h 13m 55s):
Phone. Be careful because if it’s from Taiwan and a Israeli company out there could blow up just saying, just saying, I’ve got, I just, I am fascinated by this thing. But that’s what it says to you. Like when you get in, like, press this button if you want to die, it’s a 3D printed capsule and you get in it and you press the button and that’s it. That’s horrible. That’s just so bad. I mean, and this woman was 60. She’s young, right? You you’re telling me she couldn’t get any other, you know, don don’t know. I, I, it’s just the whole thing is weird to me. But the, the, they’re trying to call it the Tesla of euthanasia.

4 (1h 14m 36s):
What a disregard for life, right? This is like mass produced life ending. This is horrible. And it’s outta Switzerland. Can I also say, you know, and I love the Swiss, but man this are some pretty weird Nordic ideas up there. Let’s just create a pod that’ll mur you like that in minutes and then they’ll have a whole line of them up. It’s weird, although like some of the best horror movies come from up there just saying,

11 (1h 15m 1s):
I was reading too, like they don’t say how they dispose of the body, do they? No. So they

4 (1h 15m 7s):
Does it

11 (1h 15m 8s):
Like, open the lid and hope for wolves? Like what do they

4 (1h 15m 11s):
They open the lid and they do hope for wolves. Okay. No, I mean, I, I don’t know if all of them are like out in nature, but I’m just, I’m, I’m a little curious because it looks like it could lean up and just dump you out. What if it does that? What if it like, rehas your dead body out of the pod? Well, look, if you’re murking yourself in a pod, let’s just drop all pretense of, you know, taste here. You’re, you’re murking yourself in a pod. Nobody should be offended if I’m like, does it reha your dead carcass out of it? I mean, it, it’s hor it’s all

11 (1h 15m 45s):
Horrible. Would it surprise you to find out there are people lined up to do this? That there is a line of

4 (1h 15m 49s):
People that makes me sad. That there are people that are lined

11 (1h 15m 52s):
Up to do this on. There’s a waiting list to do

4 (1h 15m 54s):
This. Are you serious?

11 (1h 15m 55s):
120 people. Apparently there are some 120 applicants hoping to use the machine to end their lives according to the last resort.

4 (1h 16m 5s):
That’s so sad to me. I feel like the guy who’s doing this, who created this whole thing is, I, I just think that it’s exploitative and you’re preying upon people at like a horrible time in their lives. I agree. And then I I, and it makes me feel sad that these people don’t have a support network. I mean, the pot is ludicrous, but it, you know, it doesn’t distract from just the sadness that I feel for people who feel like they gotta do this. It’s just, ugh. Ugh. Goodness. Why does the guy who they call Dr. Death, he’s this Australian euthanasia advocate. Why do these people always look like freaks? I know they always look like freaks. Do they not?

11 (1h 16m 40s):
Wasn’t it kevorkian for us? In, in Michigan? Yeah, Michigan I think or something.

4 (1h 16m 44s):
They always look like, like, you know, they are the villains. You immediately know, oh, that’s the bad guy. ’cause he looks like the bad guy. He’s a just, they just, you know, they got a look. All right, we got more on the way. Sweet. So weird segment.

Can I do, man, if I were to come into any with, into this with beside the Florida man thing with any song, I think it’d be jukebox Hero maybe. No. Did you guys hear about this, this Flo? So these dudes got into a fight over the jukebox, what was playing on a jukebox. And this dude ended up getting shot. So a Florida man was shot dead after he got into a a, a dispute over a jukebox song. And it was at a Mexican restaurant. and I love how they’re like, it turned violent. It was in Fort Lauderdale early Monday morning. It was an argument over a jukebox song. And the dispute began. The dispute began at this restaurant when one man began commenting on another person’s music selection, according to authorities said Maro Bunia.

4 (1h 18m 57s):
He said to WSV and tv. I heard there was two guys and they got into an argument ’cause he sounds like he’s from Jersey. ’cause one of them played a song in the jukebox and the other guy was kind of ticked off. And he goes, the guy who got insulted pulled his weapon and started shooting the other guy. They actually wrote it phonetically as he said it. they said the guy drew his weapon first and the other. So one of them played a song on the machine and the other guy was mad and said, you’re not a real Mexican if you play that bur music is what he said. Which then made me stop and go, well, how can, what is not real Mexican then? Like, if, if he played, what did he play that he got accused of not being a real Mexican, right? Dark

The other guy was taken into custody and man, they had just, out of all the stories, a Florida man wearing an ankle monitor tried kidnapping attempts at kidnapping in a Walmart parking lot, spotted when legs were flailing out the truck. According to the affidavit, the Juan Marcos Perez, he tried to kidnap a woman in Orlando and he had an ankle monitor on, and it was 4:30 PM Monday. And he tried to put her in the trunk of the car and he was threatening to kill her.

4 (1h 20m 35s):

Welcome back to the program ladies and gentlemen. Dana Lash here with you at the top of our third hour, this broadcast Thursday. and there is a new executive order out, a new executive order that targets machine guns and 3D printed, 3D printed firearms, uns, serialized firearms, all which are already regulated by the federal government. Now this was announced just a little bit ago, the, these executive orders, it was announced last, actually Monday, I think that they were gonna put forward more executive orders on guns.

4 (1h 22m 32s):
And so you kind of knew we, I mean we really didn’t have an idea as to what, what they were going into, but it looks like, so they, they’re looking at, they have the, and I’ll write, I’m gonna write about this more over at Substack chapter and verse my newsletter, because it gets into a couple of things. Specifically the, it gets into drills. Like for instance, they said that they’re, he’s gonna have the Surgeon general and the secretaries of education and health and human services to develop and publish guidance for schools on how to conduct shooting drills and minimize, you know what they said?

4 (1h 23m 15s):
Try to, I, I mean they’re gonna do these, they’re gonna do drills and minimize unnecessary trauma, which that’s not, I mean, this is not an issue that I have with people. I, I hope they bring in like professionals to do these if they’re gonna do something like this. Because I don’t have a lot of faith in some of these institutions to discern what is a threat and what isn’t a threat. and I have a story that highlights that coming up. It, yeah, I mean we had tornado drills and that doesn’t, you just sit there like what? I mean, what do you mean?

4 (1h 23m 56s):
What kind of drills? I just feel like that’s not the right way to go. I mean, define, do whatever you have to do. I mean, have drills, have the locking doors, whatever. But when you’re not actually looking at the problem and ignoring it, like for instance, Parkland, Parkland can do a million different drills all they want to. But the problem was that there was clearly a threat. They, they all, all law enforcement knew it. The superintendent of the schools knew it. The teachers knew it. I talked to back when it happened, I talked to a teacher off the record who did not want her identity disclosed. And she was not the only teacher I spoke with at Parkland, either at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas. I talked to several educators and I talked to some people who work in administration.

4 (1h 24m 40s):
They all knew who this kid was, even though it’s a larger system. This, that killer was so bad. And he was so violent leading up to what happened. They all knew who he was. He had to have a mind that went to school with him. And they, he had been in trouble law enforcement. They, they were bragging about reducing the school to prison pipeline and much in the same way that they’re trying to pretend that the crime rate has gone down. It’s not that the crime rate has gone down. And it’s not that they did, it’s not that they actually reduced students getting in trouble with the law. It’s just that they literally stopped reporting it. And that killer in Parkland was one of the people whose crimes, they just stopped reporting.

4 (1h 25m 22s):
And I’m not talking about little misdemeanor stuff. I mean, there was like serious like felonious activity happening. I mean this, this killer previously already held a gun to a student’s head. He had knocked his own mother’s teeth out of her mouth. He was already threatening to kill students. He had been doing it, this was like months and months leading up to this, this tragedy. They had police go out to his house dozens of times and he had his, like this murderer’s own family was calling law enforcement. Robert Runcie knew about it. That bad cop sheriff knew about it as well. But see, they were trying to put on this front, well we gotta reduce, we have to make it look like we’re actually having an impact in reducing calls to law enforcement on, you know, from student body and all this.

4 (1h 26m 7s):
And they, Robert Ruey got an award from Arne Duncan who was at the time the head of Department of Education under Barack Obama. They gave Robert Ruey this big award because he had at least visibly reduced the school to prison pipeline that the number of criminal actions reported to law enforcement. And it wasn’t because they had rehabilitated the behavior of the student party. It was because they stopped reporting it. That’s not me saying it, it’s parents there saying it, it’s the teacher saying it. And it’s the official conclusion of the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas Commission that put that in a report. You, you can do drills all you want to when you are not accurately assessing and doing something to mitigate threats.

4 (1h 26m 53s):
I mean drills. And when you’re leaving your doors unlocked, doing all this other stuff and then not, I mean not doing anything about this, this killer who actually could have been adjudicated unfit. So he could have never really, never have gotten a firearm. And he probably could have been committed too, but nobody, law enforcement didn’t do anything. And they just, they, they, I mean the FBI was aware. I mean that’s how bad it was. So that’s, I I I don’t know, they don’t do anything to address that. There’s nothing in here that I’ve, and I’ve g glanced at it so far. I haven’t read all of it all the way, but I’ve been, glancing and I haven’t seen anything yet that addresses it beyond they wanted talk about drills.

4 (1h 27m 33s):
Right, okay. I mean, you’re doesn’t doing a drill by itself kind of create trauma because they said, oh, we wanna minimize unnecessary trauma. Well, doing a drill when you won’t do anything else to protect students, does that, I mean, that just seems like you’re introducing trauma because, and then you’re also trying to convince them that something that is statistically super rare is an inevitable reality. And that is also traumatic. You’re, you’re conditioning them to think that and it’s, you know, one mass casualty incident as a school is one too many. But these are rare occurrences. And it seems like you’re, you’re trying to condition kids into thinking that it is an inevitable occurrence.

4 (1h 28m 18s):
When it is a rare thing. Then they look at machine, like the machine, machine conversion devices by the way, the whole report that they’re doing. ’cause they have their task force that’s looking at, at machine guns and the conver the conversion devices, whatever. That’s, that report is not even gonna be submitted until post-election. Like you’re like three months after the election is when that report’s not even due. And the ability to put a switch on for the, just put it in layman’s terms, put a switch on a gun and make it full auto is already regulated. That’s, that’s a, that’s it’s illegal. It’s already regulated.

4 (1h 28m 59s):
So I don’t know how you make that illegal or with their, it feels like they wanna, it feels like they’re blaming Glock. They hate Glock. Glock is a Austrian company. They don’t like Glock and I feel like they want them to maybe change how they make their firearms. So that, I don’t know. It’s what it feels like. It feels like they’re just weird. I mean, if their argument is gonna be that well anything can be converted and because anything could be converted, then we will just ban all the things. It seems like a move in that direction. Of course. It really does. But then I mean that, that’s, if, if the argument is well anything can be a machine gun, then we’ll ban all of it. That also is a very interesting argument as it relates to law enforcement too.

4 (1h 29m 41s):
But that’s a whole other discussion. So this is don don’t know, it’s, it, it looks kind of nonsensical. They are talking about the, they address the emerging threat of firearm without serial numbers also refer to as ghost guns. Well, you to be able to, you can’t sell firearms without there being a serial number on it. That’s also regulated number one. Number two, there isn’t, there’s not evidence to support that. This idea of uns serialized or what they’re trying to say is privately made by hobbyists. But they don’t wanna get into the weeds on that. They want you to think that there’s an epidemic of uns serialized guns, which actually was a manufacturing thing that again, the government exploited and turned into a tracking system.

4 (1h 30m 27s):
But they wanna make it, they wanna make it seem like it’s an epidemic and that some and that something has to be done when it’s actually, again, that’s not what drives the crime. That’s not what, that’s not what felons when they’ve been surveyed by the DOJ twice now under Barack Obama, that’s not where they’re getting their stuff. they said that they wanna focus the ATFs resources on identifying developments and illicit firearm mark marketplaces, including the use of new technologies. What are you talking about? To make an undetectable firearms that all this other, they at some point they’re probably gonna be in 3D printing machines. I’m just waiting for that to happen. But they have the machine conversion, the machine gun conversion devices, the 3D printed firearms, they wanna go after 3D printed firearms. they said that they can be used for illegal purposes like gun trafficking, et cetera.

4 (1h 31m 10s):
They’re not, people aren’t out there fabricating their own guns though. There’s no evidence to support that accusation there. There isn’t. And furthermore, I mean when you’re talking about 3D printed guns, they’re even, you have to have good quality material. There’s a, that’s a big conversation that look gang bangers are not having, they’re not getting 3D printers and printing the stuff off in their garages. That’s just entirely wholly unsupported by the evidence. It, it, it, I mean people can get say otherwise, but the evidence doesn’t support that. It sounds like they wanna go after 3D printing though. Interesting. So it, this is basically, this is, they’re just using this as a political football in an election season.

4 (1h 31m 52s):
That’s what it is. It’s just a political football in an election season. But you can’t underestimate that and think that nothing will come of it or that it won’t be used, won’t be further used by the left because they always, they always throw a bunch of stuff out there and then they’ll stake the claim on one. So they always try to gain some kind of ground no matter what. So that’s the latest that eo from the Biden administration, by the way, we were talking about the suicide pod a little bit earlier and, and Lorraine said that the pod dete, because you, you apparently, we are trying to figure out what you do. Is it used, like how do you get out of it? Like does it just like, you know, fling your body into

25 (1h 32m 33s):
The

4 (1h 32m 33s):
Water like, like a highland fling? Does it just like throw it into the atmosphere? Like what happens? She says it detaches and it’s used as your coffin and then they 3D print another one for the next person. Oh,

11 (1h 32m 46s):
So that quells your fears of gunk being in there, somebody else’s

4 (1h 32m 49s):
Well I think they’re horrible feasts, but I’m just like, yeah, like did they clean it up? ’cause it’s nasty. Like people don’t, you lose control of your stuff.

11 (1h 32m 56s):
You also brought up a great question so they don’t embalm them.

4 (1h 32m 60s):
Well that’s what I asked. I’m like, do they do, do they embalm the people in there? They’re just like, okay, it’s done. Because you’re, then you’re in there and you’re like all juicy still. So come on. But still, you know, for real, like what Ew,

25 (1h 33m 13s):
Juicy

4 (1h 33m 13s):
Let’s, yeah, that’s, it turns into like a Cadbury a gross Cadbury egg. That’s

11 (1h 33m 18s):
The adjective you chose.

4 (1h 33m 19s):
Well, I’m just trying to, Lord, it’s sad and I feel sad for the people who feel like there’s no other option. But do you realize how ludicrous this thing is? You go into a giant space egg that marks you.

25 (1h 33m 30s):
It is,

26 (1h 33m 32s):
It’s like Mork from Orc only written reverse.

4 (1h 33m 35s):
And it, it’s so, it, it’s such an anticlimactic way to go get into your egg. Okay, bye now. Then they’ll bury you in it. That’s don don’t know. I know. It’s a very macabre thing. It’s spooky season. So I I. don don don’t know. Just the whole thing is odd. So the other thing we were discussing is this Eric Adams, they said he’s taken, what was the, lemme look at this. What was the number that he took over a hundred thousand dollars in bribes. I made the point that he’s almost taken as much as the Biden’s. And the Clintons

25 (1h 34m 6s):
Almost,

4 (1h 34m 7s):
Almost. He’s almost taken, I mean, it’s not anywhere near what they’ve taken, but you know, he’s almost there. He’s almost there. and I don don’t know. It’s sad that we’re, that we just assume that, okay, well this is, this is Democrats, this is what they do. This is how they, how they operate. This is, you know, it’s sad that it is so customary with either Bob Menendez, they got Hunter Biden and Joe Biden and the Clintons and Eric Adams. Andrew Cuomo though thinks that he’s got a shot. He thinks he’s got a shot. Andrew Cuomo is eyeing this up one side and down the other.

4 (1h 34m 49s):
He’s looking, he thinks that he actually may be able to get in there and become mayor. He’s eyeing a comeback. Axios has the story, how he’s already floating it out there to folks that he’s preparing to run for mayor. You remember disgraced former New York governor Andrew Cuomo, who killed all Y’s grandparents in New York there. He’s, he’s, he wants to go from a disgrace governor. He was, he the only reason that he was actually forced to resign was because of a sexual harassment scandal. Not because he killed everybody’s grandparents. So now he’s considering a comeback. We’re gonna talk about this coming up. Firehouse

4 (1h 36m 16s):
So Wealthy Gen Zers are leaving California according to a new study. The, they’re leaving, they, they’re defined as people who run households under the age of 26 if they bring in more than $200,000 a year. So they’re classified as high earners by the IRS because of their agent income. And they said that Wealthy Gen Zers are leaving and they’re going, they’re leaving West Coast entirely. A lot of them are going to, in fact, this is, they’re where they’re going to, where’s New York? They, which is blows my mind. Why are they going to New York, Florida, Tennessee, Colorado, and Texas.

4 (1h 36m 59s):
Those are the top five I think if you go to New York, because maybe if they wanna live in the city, you know, if they’re, they’re young, they don’t have kids, maybe they think that’s where to go. How weird is that though? Those states saw the biggest influx of top earning Gen Z household New York is. No, that’s so weird to me. But don don’t. Mm, it’s what it is. The same. you know, also a couple other Of. course it’s not gonna pull up. It may not pull up. Let’s see here.

They chase a hijacked bus in Los Angeles and it had hostages on board. The St. Louis, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority. It had hostages on board. According to them, there was a shooting victim on board as well, according to KTLA. Then they surrounded it yesterday in downtown Los Angeles. And they were able to get people out and they, they don’t really say anything about the perp only that they were able to take them into custody. And that’s kind of it.

Expanding that child tax credit. Or you mentioned housing before, giving that extra money for a first home. If you can’t raise corporate taxes or if GOP takes control of the Senate, where do you get the money to do that? Do you still go forward with those plans and borrow

5 (1h 39m 38s):
Well, but we’re gonna have to raise corporate taxes and we’re gonna have to raise, we’re gonna have to make sure that the biggest corporations and billionaires pay their fair share. That’s just it. It’s about paying their fair share. I’m not mad at anyone for achieving success, but everyone should pay their fair share. And it is not right. Say a couple more times. The teachers and the firefighters that I meet every day across our country are paying a higher tax.

4 (1h 40m 7s):
They’re not

5 (1h 40m 8s):
Than the richest people in our country. They’re

28 (1h 40m 10s):
Really not. They just said it this week. If he was in charge of taxes, he would’ve paid more. But how do you find that line to make sure corporations are paying their fair share but they’re not leaving our country.

5 (1h 40m 21s):
Well, listen, I work with a lot of CEOs, I have spent a lot of time with CEOs and I’m gonna tell you that the business leaders who are actually part of the engine of America’s economy agree that people should pay their fair share. They also agree that when we look at a plant such as mine that is about investing in the middle class, investing in new industries, investing in bringing down costs, invest in entrepreneurs like small businesses, but the overall economy is stronger and everyone benefits

That is, first off, she knows nothing

29 (1h 40m 56s):

Oh but wasn, but wasn, Kamala Harris’ interview with Stephanie Rule who what in the Wednesday, Adams hell and I say this is a goth kid. Was she wearing, that’s not an appropriate outfit for that. And also why the red shoes with it? That’s just not no, but not that aside. I she just, did you see, did you watch her expression, Harris’s expression when she’s talking? ’cause she doesn’t know what she’s saying. She has no idea how to answer this question because she doesn’t know anything about the economy. So she’s like, well pay their fair share. Just, she just, her brain went there because that’s, she defaulted to it because, but wasn her highest level of knowledge on it. Just pay their fair share.

4 (1h 41m 37s):
you know, if they, if they pay their share, which is fair, if they share fairly, you know, what they get what their pay, pay their fair share, share their fair pair, pay their share. Fa it’s like, she’s like, Moy Rose. If you love fruit wine as much as I do, you’ll love earth bar flickers wine, birth har flicker. That’s if you just pay your fair share, share fair pair hair, that’s all you gotta do. Pay your fair hair, it’s pay your fair hair. That’s, there’s a wise rabbit in the top hat.

4 (1h 42m 22s):
I don’t even know, man. Where’s it happen? Where’s it going? don? Don’t know. That’s so stupid. It’s based on a myth. It’s because we’ve all that. So first off, number one, I don’t understand though, when, when you look at the most recent data that is available, and I got tons of notes on this, I, it, it’s pretty stunning. When you see who actually does pay the fair share in 2021, the top 1%, they earned 26% of income, but they paid like over 47% of all the federal income taxes. That’s just the very, very top 1%. Huh? Is that the fair share? They paid more than the bottom 95% combined.

29 (1h 43m 4s):
Huh?

4 (1h 43m 5s):
So what’s, how do you, so you’re saying that they have to pay more to make it fairer.

11 (1h 43m 11s):
Wait, are you saying the rich, the top 1% Yeah.

4 (1h 43m 15s):
Are paying the top 1%. They’re

11 (1h 43m 16s):
Paying 95% of the tax burden?

4 (1h 43m 19s):
Yes. Well, no, I’m saying they’re paying more than the bottom 95% that’s combined. Right? That’s, I mean, that’s what I mean. So, so they’ve earned 26% of the income, but they’re paying like 47% of all federal income taxes.

11 (1h 43m 31s):
So it sounds like we need numbers from them. They need to be specific as to what looks, looks

4 (1h 43m 36s):
Like. So, so if they pay more, is that fairer? If you give up half your income and taxes, ugh, is that more than half your income to make it fairer while nobody, the other people don’t pay as much? I mean it’s, that’s these are like from, these are actual IRS, you know, the, I they, what do they, what do the hell they mean? The fair share thing? These people have no idea what this is. What

11 (1h 43m 59s):
I also hate is the, they conflate the two different numbers. Like they’ll say a dollar amount or they’ll say a percentage. Like, so if the rich are only paying 8% or they’re not paying, let’s say they’re only paying 2% and these firefighters and nurses and the people they like to bring up that are paying say 20 or 20. But

4 (1h 44m 16s):
Listen, because we got, you got the top 1%, you’re gonna get really mad. Ka do you want the top 10? Top 10? Because we move the top 1%. All right, so the top 10, maybe they don’t pay. Maybe if you put more people in there, they pay less.

11 (1h 44m 28s):
So these are the richest 10% of America.

4 (1h 44m 30s):
Okay, so you have the top 1% rem remember they pay, it’s like 47%. The top, I mean, what is it? The top 50% paid 97% of all federal taxes came. Look, that’s where you’re, that’s probably what you’re thinking about the 90 something percent. Yes. It’s the top 50% that paid. Actually it’s almost 98%. It’s approximately 97.7%. The bottom 50% paid 2.3.

11 (1h 45m 5s):
2.3.

4 (1h 45m 6s):
Yes. Yes.

11 (1h 45m 10s):
So the narrative’s a lie.

4 (1h 45m 12s):
Oh, my gosh, it’s a completely, totally a lie. I mean a thousand percent a lie. In looking at this, you have the top 1%. You have the, I’m trying to find my notes on, there’s a lot there. You have the top 10%. They, I mean the tax rate of the top 10% was like, what, 22%. And they ended up, I mean they ended up paying 75% of total income taxes paid. So the top 10%, actually it’s 76%. Sorry, it’s 75 point eights. So round up. So the top 10% pay 76 per pay.

4 (1h 45m 51s):
76% of all of the total income taxes. Are you okay? I think Cain literally just had a stroke. Are you okay over there? Seriously, you, are you breathing?

11 (1h 46m 2s):
I was looking it up too. and I saw what Carol Roth posted this morning. And a according to this, and this is just a screenshot of her Googling it. Yeah. 59.9%. So 60% of US households paid income tax in 2022. The remaining 40

4 (1h 46m 18s):
Paid nothing

11 (1h 46m 19s):
Paid, no taxes at all.

4 (1h 46m 22s):
They paid nothing. That is correct. That is correct. Oh, and by the way, all of the stuff that I’m, the figures that I’m citing, I’ll give you the, I’ll give you the website. It’s irs.gov/statistics/ So I tax stats, individual statistical tables by tax rate and income percentile. So it’s from the government. This is, yeah, but wait, there’s more. The bottom 50%, 2.3% is what they paid. Their tax rate was about 3.3%. Top 50% average tax rate, 16%, top 25 18%, top 10, 22%, top five, 23%, top one 26%.

11 (1h 47m 10s):
And I also feel like people don’t know what payroll taxes.

4 (1h 47m 13s):
No, they don’t

11 (1h 47m 14s):
Are. And what they mean and how it’s double dipped every time the company has to

4 (1h 47m 18s):
Write a paycheck. Oh yeah, that’s exactly. So the idea of fair share is an abs that’s for her to say this is, is is economically ignorant and it’s embarrassing. But she has no, I mean this is all she’s made of. Wait, this is okay. Audio soundbite 14. Stephanie rule was like te telling her, you’re not actually giving me straight answers on any of those stuff. Listen

28 (1h 47m 44s):
Work. And one could watch that and say, well, she didn’t give a clear, direct answer. That’s okay, because we are not talking about clear or direct issues. What,

4 (1h 47m 52s):
What? It’s okay to not have clear answers because we’re not, we don’t know what the hell we’re talking about. I mean, what in the nonsense is that? That’s crazy. That is so, that is so embarrassing. You guys. Audio soundbite six. It’s just she’s talking about her plan here guys, dreams and ambitions.

28 (1h 48m 19s):
Madam Vice president, you just laid out your economic vision for the future. Yeah, but still there are lots of Americans who don’t see themselves in your plans. For those who say, these policies aren’t for me, what do you say to them?

5 (1h 48m 36s):
Well, if you are hardworking, if you have the dreams and the ambitions and the aspirations of what I believe you do and what you’re in my plan, you know, I, I have to tell you I really love and I’m so energized. What? By what I know to be the spirit and character of the American people. We have

4 (1h 49m 4s):
Ambition. This is the black love campaign.

5 (1h 49m 5s):
We have aspirations. We have

4 (1h 49m 6s):
Dreams. She again, drunk Hallmark. That’s what it sounds like. It just doesn’t, she called, what did she say? The buzzword that she used. Oh, she was trying to say that She said holistic three times in a 15 second period.

30 (1h 49m 25s):
And inspiring.

4 (1h 49m 27s):
She said, looking holistically at the connection between that and housing and looking holistically at the incentives being the federal government can create for local and state governments to actually engage in planning in a holistic manner that includes prioritizing affordable housing. Hey, Kane, you like that holistic hippie stuff? How many times do you say holistic A day?

11 (1h 49m 50s):
None.

4 (1h 49m 50s):
How many times do you listeners out there and viewers say holistic a day? I literally never say it. I never ever say it.

11 (1h 49m 57s):
I can’t. I mean, I’ve said it to describe what other people have said. What

4 (1h 50m 0s):
Is holistically at the incent isn’t getting the federal and government involved, like literally the opposite of holistic. Yes. I, it’s, that’s so stupid. I just can’t, I don don’t know. I don’t think she understands that. She says, she talks in like Venn diagram word salad. That’s all it is. That’s all it is. That this should terrify you. She has no idea how to, she has no idea what to implement. She has no policies, economic policies. ’cause she doesn’t know how the economy works. She, she has never worked in, she doesn’t work in the private sector. She doesn’t work in businesses. She doesn’t know how to do that. I wanted to get to this story really quickly. I wrote about this over at Substack chapter in verse.

4 (1h 50m 41s):
You got this last night. If you’re a subscriber in Mountain View, Missouri, Liberty Middle sch, Liberty Middle School suspended 13-year-old Riley Gron because he made a gun out of Dr. Pepper cans. Like he didn’t fashion like a fireable gun out of Dr. Pepper cans. He laid actual Dr. Pepper cans on his bed in the shape of what looks like a lowercase k but it’s in the shape of a, a rifle. And so his school suspended him and they gave him two marks on his permanent record. One for cyber bullying and another for making a school threat. Even though he never made any threats ever to anybody, anything, anyone ever. And no bullying took place.

4 (1h 51m 22s):
This is what the school said. Quote, we have enough information to believe the video has caused fear for one student. So they, I was looking back at this, don don’t think the mom, ’cause we talked about this yesterday, don don’t think the mom is taking legal action, but I think that she should think about this. The anti-gun brigade has spent the last decade shaking kids down over Nerf guns. Remember that? Nerf guns, they went after a kid. He got kicked outta school because he had a Nerf gun. There was in New Jersey, Amazon, you can’t get Nerf guns. They like banned all these toy guns. They have scared kids over finger guns. You remember the 10-year-old who was suspended? ’cause he was playing outside. They were literally like playing cops and robbers. He was a fifth grader and he made a finger gun and he got suspended from school.

4 (1h 52m 6s):
I mean, I have so many examples of kids literally getting suspended from school for finger guns. It’s crazy. Or what about the kid who ate his pop tart at school and the shape of a gun and he got in trouble. This was in Maryland. A 7-year-old ate his Pop-Tart into the shape of a gun and got in trouble. It, it was at Park Elementary School, they suspended him at for two days. This is, and this is what I touched on when we were discussing the, the executive orders on gun control and they were talking about doing shooter drills. These school, like Liberty Middle School, has zero proper threat assessment capabilities. That’s appalling. They, they teach kids to fear non-threatening situations, but then they shame them for like listening to instinctual fear over, over actual threatening situations like the girl in Virginia who walked into the girl’s bathroom.

4 (1h 52m 55s):
And because a boy who played pretended to be a girl was allowed in there per school trans policies, he was able to attack the girl and brutally rape her in the school’s bathroom. So when you have Liberty Middle School that clearly can’t differentiate between a real and, and not real threat, it makes me concerned about their ability or lack thereof to properly handle anything, including actual threats. Like why didn’t they reach out to this kid’s mom to assess the potential threat level before they they suspended her kid? Or like, why didn’t the school tell the student that cans can’t hurt you? Or why didn’t the school reiterate that while one of these incidents is too many, they’re extremely, they’re very rare and preventable.

4 (1h 53m 39s):
’cause if anybody was bullied here, I think it’s this kid ri gron. They’re, they’re making everybody afraid over everything. When you make everybody afraid over everything, there’s security for No one. I don’t know. I I maybe when you consider that context, maybe it’s understandable that there was a kid who felt fear over a Dr. Pepper can. I mean, we tell kids not to eat Tide pods apparently. Some have to be told, maybe their parents should be told too at this point. But I, I really don’t think that the fear in this is genuine. I think honestly, it’s just politically motivated and they’re masking it as, as fear, which I think is so heinous and I don’t know. They’re, they’re, they’re punishing this innocent kid and I feel bad for him.

4 (1h 54m 21s):
But man, I really do think the mom should, you know, kind of honestly kind of look at her options here because this is gonna go on his record that’s gonna follow him like all throughout school. He’s gonna have a record and they’re gonna look at him as a troublesome kid.

Thank you for gathering. My name is Damian Williams and I the United States Attorney here in the Southern District of New York. Today we are announcing campaign finance, bribery, and conspiracy charges against Eric Adams, the mayor of New York City. As the indictment alleges, mayor Adams engaged in a long running conspiracy in which he solicited and knowingly accepted illegal campaign contributions from foreign donors and corporations. As we allege, mayor Adams took these contributions, even though he knew they were illegal, and even though he knew these contributions were attempts by a Turkish government official and Turkish businessmen to buy influence with him.

3 (1m 11s):

We also alleged that the mayor sought and accepted well over $100,000 in luxury travel benefits from some of the same foreign actors who arrange many of the illegal campaign contributions. These benefits included free international business class flights and opulent hotel rooms in foreign cities. The mayor had a duty to disclose these gifts on his annual public disclosure forms so that the public could see who was giving him what. But as we allege, year after year after year, he kept the public in the dark. He told the public he received no gifts even though he was secretly being showered with them.

3 (1m 52s):

We allege that Adams accepted these benefits knowing that they were given to him because of his position. And in exchange for some of those improper benefits, he intervened in the New York City Fire Department’s inspection process for a building owned and operated by the Turkish government, allowing it to open even though it had not passed the fire inspection.

4 (2m 12s):

So this is some of the latest with Eric Adams, who is, he’s being charged with all kinds of what, I guess they’re trying to say. He’s been under the influence of Turkey this entire time. So he’s getting all of these different charges against him, and that’s just some of the latest with it. Welcome to the, the radio program. It’s Thursday. Dana Lash with you. And we were following this story. I think there’s a lot of discussion that it’s because a lot of the things that Eric Adams had said about illegal immigration, et cetera, and that it’s the illegal immigration aspect of it. That that’s, that’s why like right after he said it, then that’s why he started, that’s why they started investigating him.

4 (2m 59s):

’cause it’s been like 10 months that they’ve been investigating him at this point. I think so. The, and we’re gonna follow up with all of this stuff. He just had a press conference where he was getting heckled at some of it. It was a really wild press conference. And the feds are laying out all the charges now. They were saying that he was taking bribes and that he wasn’t disclosing well, it was basically a constituted bribes and that he was, he’s taking bribes and he was basically in the pocket of Turkey this whole time. So Welcome to the program, we got a radio show to do. Other people apparently in this orbit need to be notified of that. You can find us over at Substack as well. We got a lot of stuff to hit, including the disastrous remarks from Kamala Harris where she, she made a speech and I talked about some of it last night on Fox.

4 (3m 45s):

And it was fairly ridiculous, the speech that she gave. And so this a just, just, I feel like Democrats are kind of falling apart when they’re not attacking themselves really. When they’re not attacking themselves, they’re entirely falling apart. So it’s, this is just some of the latest that we have and we’re gonna be, you know, sorry, we’re, we’re, we’re bringing it to you as we get it. But those charges that came out, I don don’t know if, I think that it’s related to his, his remarks on i on immigration. don don’t know if that’s like a conspiracy theory or not. I mean, he said some pretty crazy stuff before So I don’t believe that. He’s like some sort of hero of the right, or even really an ally of the right.

4 (4m 28s):

But, you know, I mean, he, he took bribes apparently. I mean, he was, a lot of it was like upgrades on flights and free stays when he would travel. And apparently he like always traveled through Turkey, et cetera, things of that nature. I wanted to play some audio for you of Kamala Harris’s, her disastrous remarks that she gave. ’cause she’s campaigning and she was trying, she did this sit down interview with Stephanie Rule, who was in a weird outfit. It’s like, don’t dress like one day Wednesday. Adams and red pumps, like when you’re trying to do a serious sit down, that’s fashion wear. That’s not anchor wear. But she did this weird sit down interview with Kamala Harris and they were in, I don’t know what the setting was. It was like they were in a Home Depot in the back room of a Home Depot.

4 (5m 9s):

But audio soundbite three is some of her. She spoke, this was at her fundraiser. So we have a, she had, she did two different things. She had the interview with M-S-N-B-C and then she also gave a campaign speech. This is part of her campaign speech. and I, just like I said last night, I don’t speak drunk Hallmark.

5 (5m 26s):

We need to guard that spirit. We have to guard that spirit. Let it always inspire us. Let it always be the source of our optimism, which is that spirit that is so uniquely American. And let that then inspire us by helping us to be inspired to solve the problems that so many face, including our small business owners.

4 (5m 59s):

Yeah.

6 (6m 0s):

Do we have the transcripts?

4 (6m 4s):

Yeah, apparently, whatever that is. Whatever. but wasn, whatever her remarks were there. What that, what do this is supposed to be about the economy. I don’t understand what it she’s talking about. When she says guard the spirit, what the hell does that mean? What does it mean to guard ones spirit? What does that she talking about? The spirit of American entrepreneurship. Because don don’t think that she understands it. If that’s what she’s talking about, you know, she doesn’t understand it. Is it the spirit of American guardianship? I I, I don’t know. don don’t know. I don’t know what that meant. I really don’t. I mean, she has no answer, no answer to anything. This is wait, audio soundbite two.

4 (6m 44s):

This is just when she keeps discussing, she the failed. And we’re gonna talk more about this, but I just gotta get these soundbites outta my system. Audio soundbite. Two,

5 (6m 52s):

We just need to move past the failed policies that we have proven don’t work.

4 (7m 4s):

I don’t even know what that means. She’s part of the pol someone tell her that she’s in the White House. I mean, she’s in Right? She’s still vice president. I didn’t fall down the steps this morning and like hit my head hard and you know, now I don’t understand what’s happening in the world. Correct, correct, correct. Yeah. don don’t know. I I don’t don don’t know what don don’t even know what, what half of what she’s don don’t even what this means. We need to move past the failed policies that prove. So is she indicting herself in this? I’m cur I’m very confused. don don’t know. Is she indicting herself in this? I’m not quite sure. Yeah. I I just know that this is the kind of stuff that does not resonate when you’re talking to people about the economy.

4 (7m 44s):

You better know what the hell you’re talking about because you’re talking to people who they’re, they’re struggling right now. I, I heard there was a soundbite, but wasn played yesterday somewhere. Not here, but I had heard it where it was one of her surrogates saying that people are misremembering. Yeah. The Trump economy. And that I heard that and it made me so angry when her surrogates are insisting that we are, that, that people are, are misremembering the Trump economy. I have that audio. Can you play that real quick? Because this right here, when you combine this is the messaging that they’re putting out that you all are stupid and that you can’t remember anything.

4 (8m 29s):

That you’re stupid, you’re misremembering your own bank account. And also, you know, we gotta guard the spirit. That’s what you’re getting from this administration. Listen to this. So this is one of her official campaign spokespeople. Listen, Chris Coons.

7 (8m 41s):

Yeah. Part of it is that Americans, when you ask the question, are you better off today than you were four years ago? Many Americans misremember just how bad the economy was four years ago. What?

4 (8m 52s):

Hmm.

6 (8m 53s):

Just misremembering.

4 (8m 54s):

What does that mean? Misremembering?

6 (8m 57s):

Is that called forgetting?

4 (8m 59s):

Yeah. I mean that’s, that’s, I would imagine that it’s that it’s called that. It’s called forgetting. Misremembering. We’re not misremembering anything. People are broke as hell. They’re broke. They can’t afford anything and they can’t afford anything because of this god awful administration. People are stressed to the max because this administration is driving everyone into an early grave because they’re, they’re, they’re stressing everybody out with the economy. They’re stressing people out with the possibility of taxes. And then we have this, you know, pick me girl who is the vice president of the United States. I’ve never seen anyone so damn lazy who worked so little in their life that got handouts to get to where she is.

4 (9m 40s):

’cause it’s exactly what it is she gave us. Every time she sits here and says that she’s from the middle class, that angers me. You’re not from the middle class. You do. You guys know that before she started her illustrious story about being bused, that she went to a ridiculously expensive primary school. That’s like $25,000 a term. Her, she had two PhD parents that work in Ivy League universities. They lived in one of the wealthiest areas in Berkeley, California. And she’s gonna sit here and try to act like she’s one of you. That she’s middle class. She’s worked in the public sector ever since she was an adult. She’s never worked in the private sector ever. She’s always been in the, she’s always been on the government.

4 (10m 20s):

Tet always, these are people who have no idea what it means to build anything. These are people who have no idea the stresses of small business and making payroll and hiring and being the first to, to arrive in the last to leave. And they don’t understand any of this. And that’s why she sounds like a damn drunk Hallmark card whenever she talks about the economy. She doesn’t understand what payroll taxes are. I don’t believe she does. don don’t even think she could define capital gains if her life depended on it. She doesn’t understand basic e anything base related to business or basic economic principles. She doesn’t understand it. She has the mentality of a barely educated college freshman who’s a Marxist and has yet to take an econ class because everything she talks about relating to the economy reflects that everything that she has proposed so far, when you know, I mean, mostly it’s vagaries, but everything that she has proposed thus far has been, I mean, when you follow it to its logical conclusion, it is the utter destruction of the American economy.

4 (11m 21s):

She was going off on tariffs. She was going off on and, and look, tariffs. That’s a little bit of a nuanced area. She couldn’t even define a tariff if her life depended upon it. I, it angers me, it pisses me off as a woman. Do you know why? Because women, I don’t mind if you have a Margaret Thatcher type president, but you’re gonna get a horrible woman in that office. And then women are never gonna be able to get that office again. At least in my lifetime, because we’re gonna have blown our shot. Because we have someone who is, who’s a barely literate, who, who’s gotten to where she is because she checks boxes. Because she is a political identity. That’s why don’t act like it’s, everything I’m saying is offensive because it’s true.

4 (12m 3s):

And the reason people are offended because it’s true. And they have to admit, wow, we only want this person because of completely shallow cosmetic things that they were born with and couldn’t change.

So the courts blocked Ken Paxton’s appeal. They’re gonna have a gun ban at the state fair of Texas, which has been one of the most peaceful and least crime affected areas in all of the United States of America, particularly Texas. There’s no crime at all whatsoever that ever happens in Arlington, Texas. True. There’s never been any crime that’s ever happened at the state fair of Texas. And I’m sure that they have more than enough resources to keep everyone safe from the gang bangers and the drug dealers that don’t exist and are prevalent in the area when people go and are disarmed. So go and eat your giant meat on a stick. Don’t get shot. Everything

12 (15m 26s):

You said was false

4 (15m 28s):

Maybe is it, is it fake news or is it not? Nobody knows. Do they? Yeah. The state court of appeals. So he’s taken it all the way up. Go Paxton. Also Colorado tops the United States in cocaine use again. And honestly, if I had to live next to some of the dirty hippies that are now like all throughout Colorado with their pot shops, I’d probably have to use cocaine too. Marks the second time in three years that Colorado tops the country and admitted cocaine use. People are just like, yeah, we’re on cocaine. So, and makes sense of Venezuelan games and everything in there. Well, yeah. Six people are hurt in an explosion from an intentionally set IED as opposed to an accidentally set IED outta a Santa Monica courthouse in California.

4 (16m 9s):

you know, you don’t accidentally set your IEDs, the man, and this is just the headline over at a BC News, the story, but wasn probably headlined by the editor, but it took three people to write 500 words. The explosion was around 8:48 AM Wednesday, the Santa Maria Courthouse in Santa Barbara. And it was a small, I mean, they, they said it, it was an explosion. That’s why they got such crazy security of courthouses. Let’s see, China test fires and intercontinental ballistic missile into the Pacific Ocean. I’m sure they meant for it to go into the atmosphere, but it probably just straight the hell up just shot into the water because it’s China. Also, Nancy Pelosi’s husband, in what I’m sure is just a total coincidence, sold more than $500,000 worth of Visa stock just weeks before the Department of Justice’s antitrust lawsuit.

you know, it’s just, he’s got very good in instincts and I’m sure he doesn’t trade on his wife’s insider knowledge at all whatsoever. you know, the guy who was assaulted in his underwear by another guy who, I’m not a conspiracy theorist, was it his boyfriend? Don Don’t know, but he was a BLM Marxist progressive antitrust cops also alleged that Visa was forcing financial tech firms to work with it by threatening to penalize people who don’t like Democrats. Also, A OC says that Eric Adams should resign as New York City mayor for the good of the city amid federal probes. you know who they wanna get in, don’t you? And we’re gonna talk about this. Andrew Cuomo is looking at his comeback. So who do you want as mayor of New York City?

4 (17m 37s):

A guy that maybe, is it considered a bribe or was it treatment? don don’t know. Do I care? Maybe, maybe not. But would you rather have that guy in office that took some money from Turkey? Or the guy who killed all your grandparents with his policies? I don’t, I mean, literally killed them. He took his policies, fashioned them into a stake and stabbed your grandparents in the chest like they were Nosferatu, So, I. Don’t know. Like who do you want in office? Andrew Cuomo. Or do you want Eric Adams, the guy who helped create all of the problems that New York is dealing with now? Or Eric Adams, who seems like a less annoying of a Marxist, not maybe all the way a Marxist willing to say some stuff about illegal immigration.

4 (18m 18s):

Did he take money from Turkey? Nah, I, the only thing, the only difference with Eric Adams and all the other New York Democrats is Eric Adams is dumb enough to get caught. That’s literally the only thing. ’cause all these cats have taken this kind of, they’ve taken upgrades, they’ve taken free trips, they’ve taken hotel stays. Literally every single one of them, he just got caught. That’s the reality of it. We’re gonna talk about that coming up. And we’re also gonna get into Kamala Harris and the holistic housing market.

4 (21m 29s):

Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. Do you guys, what’s your favorite? Ka What’s your favorite book of the Bible?

11 (21m 38s):

Favorite book of the Bible? Man, that’s a tough one because I do like Psalms. You go back to that one a lot for like

4 (21m 45s):

Peace

11 (21m 45s):

Psalms. Yeah, peace Psalm. Yeah. Piece Psalms, So. I. Think it’d be Psalms. There’s a lot of books there and a lot of things to pull from. Mm

4 (21m 51s):

I I’m partial to Ephesians. Yeah, but what about those Ecclesiastes? Huh? you know the book about the Ecclesiastes people? Oh, oh wait a minute. That’s just, I apparently that’s what Kamala Harris, that’s, she thinks that that’s Old Testament scripture. I’m not kidding. Audio soundbite one.

5 (22m 11s):

You know, there’s a time for patience and there’s a time for impatience that’s not in Ecclesiastes, but, but just want off script for a minute, mayor

4 (22m 24s):

The Ecclesiastes, you know, remember when they got, I feel like I say this a lot. Do you remember when, do you remember when they got mad at Trump for, what did he say? Two Corinthians? Yeah. Is that what he said? It’s not one but two Corinthians, something like that. Right? Or second Timothy said, he said two Timothy I. think I. Think it was two Timothy. Was it? Was it that it was one of ’em? I don’t remember. It was one of ’em. Oh, my gosh. And the left. The left was, can you believe Trump doesn’t know this biblical book? He doesn’t know this book of the Bible. Can you believe it? And they just lost their minds. Well what about the Ecclesiastic people? I mean that’s, it’s, it’s goofy, right?

4 (23m 6s):

And it just goes to show you that she Yeah, it’s, you know, the Ecclesiastes that’s actually sounds like a great theological punk band name. Where they take, it’s like they take the book of Psalms and they turn it into punk songs and their first album is called Punk Psalms. Oh, we’re just writing it right here and there. That’d be great. The last, the

11 (23m 31s):

Last letter is an X in

4 (23m 32s):

The That’s

11 (23m 33s):

Right. It can’t be a cs. That’s right.

4 (23m 35s):

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ecclesiastes right? That’s right. Oh. my gosh. That actually would be, how is that not a punk band? Right? That actually would be really great. I can see them opening up. I can see them playing like the Vatican. you know, you like go out there and see Peter. We’re the Ecclesiastes. I can see it, man. I would totally go to that show. Wouldn’t you go to that show? It’s just all Psalms punk style that actually I wanna do it. I mean, I know enough power chords and I can play rhythm guitar poorly enough that I could be a punk. I could be a punk guitarist. Right. I can do it.

11 (24m 12s):

And the next book in the Bible song of Solomon. Right. So

4 (24m 15s):

There it’s, that’s the second album. Yeah,

11 (24m 17s):

That’s what it is. Yeah. A follow up.

4 (24m 19s):

And then in the style of paranoid Android, just have a character. Just have a song called Solomon. It’s Ecclesiastes. Sounds great, doesn’t it? It’s a great, that’s a great idea. I can’t believe no one’s done that yet. So she actually, she didn’t come up with that idea. But anyway,

11 (24m 36s):

It’s like that band Penton or what was the

4 (24m 38s):

Pentatonics? I liked them for like five seconds and then I was like, okay, I’m done with it. I can only take so much. you know, like there’s certain types of music that for five seconds I’m like, this is the greatest. And then it’s too much.

11 (24m 50s):

I revisit during the holidays.

4 (24m 52s):

Really? Yeah. I don’t like, I don’t, no,

11 (24m 54s):

It’s usually in playlists and it pops up.

4 (24m 57s):

I don’t like it here and there. I mean I don’t not, I don’t dislike it. I just, it’s not my jam. I like the old cruisers.

11 (25m 3s):

Yeah, yeah. It’s not my jam, but I’ll run across it. During the holidays

4 (25m 5s):

When we were, when I was a little kid, I have no idea how we got on the subject. When I was a little kid. My mom would, they would put her and my stepdad would have he, because he was, he had a record player. He was one of those people. He was a vinyl is a vinyl person. And he would play all kinds of like old Christmas music on these albums, these vinyl albums. And so And we, and that’s how you decorate the tree and all that stuff. And so now I have to have that music around Christmas. you know what I mean? Ecclesiastes. Yeah. Ecclesiastes. Can you imagine the Ecclesiastes Christmas punk? That’s amazing. Like a way in a manger but punk style.

4 (25m 46s):

That’s so cool. Like, like a really fast drum Oh. my gosh. Like I’m already like imagining it in my head. And guess. And you wouldn’t have to pay royalties ’cause it’s kind of like considered American standard, right? Right. Dude for reels. I can’t believe that hasn’t been done. Trademark copyright.

11 (26m 4s):

I’m gonna work on that right now.

4 (26m 6s):

I’m saying I’ve got guitars. I mean I can play, you know, I can make it, at least one part of it happen. I could play drums poorly enough where I could put those tracks down. Can’t play bass to save my life unless it’s like, you know, three, three chords. That’s about it. But there you go. Where are we going? That’s okay. The cle, you guys would buy that album, I feel like. I feel like you would. Can you imagine Oh? my gosh. And you could, oh I’m just, I I need to stop ’cause I’m like going on and on and on. Alright, So I. Wanna bring the tugboat back to shore here briefly, because Georgia, a new survey came out. It’s not looking so hot for the Harris.

4 (26m 47s):

It’s not, it’s A-C-B-S-U gov poll. you know, CBS, which is the C stands for conservative, you guys remember that, right? The C stands for conservative, so C-C-B-S-U gov poll shows. Now it’s within a margin of error. But I will note something. This was 1,441 registered voters and it has Trump 51 to Harris’ 49. Now margin of error on this was three five was 3.5. But still, why do I cite this? Because the last survey, if you will give me a moment that I saw had had them tied like literally, except it was like 0.5.

4 (27m 34s):

So this survey and indicates, and the last one was likely voters and not registered voters. And, but wasn, I want to say that that survey was like a Rasmussen, I think maybe. No, no, no. It wasn’t a Rasmussen it, that last one was a, I think it was a agar group. So anyway, long story short, I feel like, you know, this one shows like, you know, a a two point gr bit of growth, but it’s not, Georgia’s not certain. And Trump needs to really focus. I think he didn’t he just do an event in Georgia? He needs to focus on Georgia. He needs to, and stick to the hits, stick to the issues that voters care about.

4 (28m 16s):

But Harris is freaking out because what have I, what one of, what’s one of the things that we’ve talked about ever since she picked walls as her second banana, they completely just glossed over Josh Shapiro and almost made it seem like they weren’t making a play for Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania’s electoral votes. Almost like they thought, well, we’re just gonna go straight for Georgia, maybe we’ll get Pennsylvania, maybe we won’t. But it, it, it was really clear that their play was to go for Georgia over Pennsylvania. So it’s kind of interesting. And now like looking at this, how this is, it’s not working out for them that it doesn’t look like their place worked thus far.

4 (29m 3s):

And probably be, and this probably because I mean her messaging’s really bad. Yeah, when they were tied, the last survey was on September 14th when it came out. And that showed them really at like 48. 48. But he, but like he was like 48.5 and she was 48. So you know, there’s, there they were right there. And now it looks like he’s kind of pulling away from her. Just I’m not, it’s not enough to be a trend yet, but it’s enough to keep an eye on, I think. But that’s not, that’s not a good poll for Harris. Not at all. Not a good poll for her. Marist has a survey out for Arizona.

4 (29m 44s):

Trump is plus one again, still within the margin of error. The margin of error is 3.8 points on this. So he’s only plus one. So they’re tied, they’re they’re, they’re tied. It was Harris that she, the last survey that they measured, well, amongst independents, the last survey that they measured amongst independence was Harris 51, Trump 47. And those are only likely voters for independence. And Joe and Biden carried independence by plus nine in that state four years ago. So these are kind of already, you know, left-leaning independence. Now it’s, they’re still leaning towards Harris, but less so. So, but these are likely voters, not registered voters.

4 (30m 28s):

So 50 to 49 with this latest marris poll from Arizona. and I was looking at the cross tabs for this one. And like I said, 3.8 margin of error. I mean there, this is not a huge lead for him with this survey, but it looks like they’re tied and they looked at 1,264 people that they surveyed and they conducted that through September 19th and 24th. And they, they also used text and landline for this too. So they’ve got 11 electoral votes for Arizona. And very interesting how the independence, they’re not as supportive of Harris as they were Biden, which they have the same policies.

4 (31m 8s):

I mean, she’s literally the same person, just a woman. Now this is the same person, it’s the same. I mean, this is why you have to vote for the set of policies that they’re looking to advance and not the person or personality if that’s like an issue for people. But man alive, it’s, it’s close. I wanted to hit Coca-Cola. Do you guys hear about Coca-Cola? Do you hear about this? don? Don’t drink Coca-Cola because I’m a Pepsi drinker. So apparently there was a dude on Facebook who was at a machine in a Coca-Cola store where you can personalize the, like you can write your name on the Coke can or write something on the Coke can, and it personalizes it in the machine, which is actually kind of neat.

4 (31m 50s):

And he was able to write Allah and Buddha and Satan, but he couldn’t write Jesus. And when he tried to write Jesus, it said, sadly, we cannot automatically allow this text on the can. If you feel it’s a mistake, please, please speak to a state rep now. And then there were other people saying that you can write, you know, other political names, but you couldn’t write where you kane’s grinning. Like you couldn’t write Trump or do something like that. Right? Well, yeah. Or

11 (32m 19s):

Yeah, Jesus and all that. See, here’s my problem with it is that there are, I I have friends named Jesus.

4 (32m 25s):

Yeah, Jesus is an actual name. Yeah.

11 (32m 27s):

Like why they can’t even get that on the cut. Everyone

4 (32m 30s):

Else can. I feel that’s, I feel like that’s anti-immigrant.

11 (32m 33s):

It it definitely is anti i

4 (32m 35s):

Anti-immigrant. Thank jingoistic.

11 (32m 37s):

Yeah. Thank you for bringing light

4 (32m 38s):

Together. You’re welcome. It’s in whatever other ing, egoistic isms that they wanna add to it to not allow Jesus to be on it. Apparently though, too, you can’t write like Trump 24 on it. That’s dumb. Yeah, I don’t know. they said that they’ve ban any monikers that are trademarked political in nature, names of countries, celebrities, religious figures, as well as anything that could be considered offensive for other reasons. And now it’s stupid. See now it’s, they tried to be so PC that it’s dumb. Now you can’t write. But I think you could, it allows Elon Musk’s name and it allows I think a couple of other names.

4 (33m 18s):

I think it allowed Harris, but it didn’t allow Trump. So some people are saying that is it’s woke. Is it? It might be. Do I, can I be real? Do I care? I don’t think so. If

11 (33m 30s):

Woke equals fascist, then yes, that would be correct.

4 (33m 34s):

I just think that some people, I don’t even know why some people continue to choose life for themselves. If you’re so miserable that you’re offended by a name on a Coke can, how are you alive? Like, how are you living? And you’re just not offended to like actually into the grave? How, how? Right? How, how are you here? I don’t get those people right. They’re offended by everything. Everything. How in the hell are you alive?

13 (34m 4s):

I’m

4 (34m 4s):

So offended. They’re the people who are mad over butter and pancakes, syrup, and names on

13 (34m 8s):

Soda. What? We can’t have trump on a can of soda. That’s bad. What is

4 (34m 17s):

Your damage? What is wrong with these people? Do you know? I I I’m not political all the time. I do turn it off. I happen to believe certain things and I am a certain way and it’s just how I am. But I don’t always talk about politics. and I don’t always, you know, look for political fights and everything. And one of the things that makes me so mad is that when I try to walk away from it, somebody out there in meet space, a leftist is always trying to like, make it a reality. Make it a real thing. you know, like we got a story coming up where this kid got in trouble at his school because he made a gun out of soda cans. But no, he didn’t like actually fashion a fire like a gun that can be fired from soda cans.

4 (34m 59s):

He laid out, literally laid out what I’m assuming are full cans of Dr. Pepper on a bed in the shape of a rifle. Meaning that it looked like a lowercase k That’s it. And he posted it on TikTok and he’s 13 years old. He does what? 13 years old? What 13 year olds do, posted on TikTok. And someone at his school got offended and they suspended this kid. Not only did they suspend him, but he’s got two marks on his permanent record. One is for cyber bullying and I can’t. And he, he got a si like someone was offended by a picture that they saw. And so that amounts to cyber bullying somehow.

4 (35m 42s):

And that’s a permanent, that’s a permanent mark on his record. So that’s one, one of the marks he got. And the other one was making a school threat. Even though he never made any threats. That’s the thing. He never made any threats to anybody, to any school, to any person, nothing. No bullying took place. We’re gonna talk about this coming up. It’s wild. Our partners over at Byrna a gun, B-Y-R-N-A, if you, it’s always good to have options for self-defense.

4 (40m 11s):

And when you criticize your narrative masters, they come at you. And that’s, I think, honestly what’s happening now. Did he make it easier by doing some of this stuff? But what is it? Maybe not.

4 (43m 53s):

So it’s really good. and I also linked to one of my favorite Japanese rockabilly artists too. So it’s weird, but it’s fun. you know, you need a break, you need a, you know, pallet cleanser. Alright, so as we roll, got a few things I gotta tell you. Like when the Eric Adams stuff hit, I’m not an Eric Adams fan, but I’m not an Eric Adams hater. I’m ambivalent. Like truly I am. I am ambivalent about it. He’s charged with bribery and wire fraud and I was listening to the, to the charges on this. And he, you know, frankly kind of, it just don don’t know it just, he’s a Democrat.

4 (44m 36s):

I’m like, I expect Democrats to do this stuff. I mean, honestly, if I’m being real, I expect politicians in general just to be, I just think when you’re in office for a certain amount of time, you’re weird. Nobody, you have to be weird to be in office that long. Yeah, I, I hate it. I would hate it. Think about it. and I know there’s some people who go with the best of intentions, right? But I think when they get there, something changes them. Like they become infected like a virus. I don’t know what it is. And, and then they just like seek out this, these accolades and they seek it out. And it’s like they get, I fame can be addicting and so can praise.

4 (45m 18s):

Praise is a hor can be a horrible drug for us. Not for the Lord, but for us humans. It could be a horrible drug. and I think some people, if they do one thing right, they get addicted to the praise and then they constantly seek accolades and then that turns them into like, shadows of their former selves and then they become grifters. don don’t know. Maybe I’m just very, very cynical. Deservedly so. It’s an earned cynicism. But I can’t imagine anyone that would want to be in office for as long as some of these cats are in office for or want to be in government for as long as some of these people are in government for, you know, the amount of ring kissing and buck kissing you have to do in order to be in it that long. I can’t stand to go to more than one.

4 (45m 60s):

Like, you know, the Christmas season when it comes around, I can, I can’t stand to go to more than like one or two Christmas parties a season because I just get, I am a situational extrovert. It’s one thing to be on a stage in front of tons of people or behind a mic. But when it gets to those one-on-one things I can’t hang, it’s, I’m as awkward as get out and just drains my energy. I can’t, I mean, if you’ve ever met me in a small setting, you’re gonna be like, she, how is she? She’s so weird. She’s the most awkward person we’ve ever met. And it’s a bit much, no, it’s totally accurate. Oh, and I and I have no filter. And So I immediately will say things like, So I. Guess we’re supposed to talk about the weather because I don’t know you.

4 (46m 41s):

I mean, I just, you know, and what else are you gonna say? It’s weird. I can’t stand when, when things are awkward. So I’m like, if it’s gonna be awkward, let it at least be awkward for a reason. Right? Like, let’s, let’s introduce something to really feel awkward about in this setting. So I just don don’t know how they do it. I, I’ve been to the, you know, I’ve been to the capitol, I’ve been, I’ve seen lawmakers and everything that they have to do. and I just don don’t know. I, there’s, I something’s wrong with them. I just have no, they’re different. I don’t think they’re human. When you stay in, I think if you’re in office for like 15 years, you officially cease to be a human.

4 (47m 22s):

You are an alien, you’re a martian. don don’t know what’s wrong. ’cause who wants to be there for that long? And you gotta be in DC you gotta be in DC And DC can be pretty if you’re a visitor for a short period of time. But when you have to live there, it’s a different story. Right? Totally different story. The first time I took it was the first, maybe it was the second time I took one of my kids to DC with me when I was doing one of the Sunday morning shows and I went in Saturday night and we get to our hotel and it was in the nice part of DC you know, is there one and I mean there were just, we when we drove around the corner to go to our air to go to our hotel. And it was, you know, right not, I mean not far from the capitol at all or the White House at all.

4 (48m 4s):

Go around the corner and there were all these people in the street and I, my my kids have seen homelessness before, but it’s off the chain in places like New York and DC and la like it is a whole different kind, a whole different level. Like you think you’ve seen homelessness, but not until you’ve seen people like tent cities on the sidewalk where you couldn’t even walk on the sidewalk. Like you actually have to walk into the road. ’cause there’s so many people on the sidewalk and the cops are just like, we can’t deal with it. It’s too much. When we turn the corner. It was like that, like just a block away from the hotel that we were at. And I’m like, well this is, this is what Democrats do. This is welcome to Democrat policies in action.

4 (48m 45s):

And it’s true. There’s nothing about anything that I’ve just said right there. That’s a lie. I’m not lying to my kid. It’s true. But it was wild to see these policies and I’m like, these are the people who’ve been here all this. He’s like, I they know they’re here, right? And I’m like, yeah, they know they’re here. He’s like, but they’re just right down there. and I’m like, yeah, they are. They’re, and they’ve been there for forever. They just, they become immune to everything. They, they, they, they just stay in that bubble. It’s weird. I think they’re weird. I mean, I’m not trying to sound mean, but I think it is mean when you, that’s why I think the voter is the term limit. don don’t like term limits because as much as they think it’s weird that people are in office for that long, I don’t want the government to take anything, any other decision making ability away from me.

4 (49m 26s):

No. You don’t get to determine how long someone stays in office. I agree with Hamilton and Adams and all of the other founders who were writing in the Federalist papers against government and post-term limits. Those are the people on whose side I come down and I. That’s our, that is up to our discretion. So, you know, that’s why we gotta be smart about it. ’cause we ultimately decide this. Anyway, my whole point in that is that I think Eric Adams is a product of his Democrat environment. He’s a product of Democrat politics. He’s a problem of a product of the Democrat party. He is a product of New York. Are you telling me that all of these other people who have occupied, you know, his honors office, that they’ve never engaged in anything because I don’t believe it.

4 (50m 10s):

He was just dumb enough or lackadaisical enough about hiding it that he just got caught. He just got caught. So what is it they were saying that he didn’t disclose all this stuff and that it amounted to influencing and we don’t want any influence in influences from foreign entities. Oh, unless you’re Hillary Clinton and you’re working with the, the Kremlin and a British spy to launder stories through the press and then merch them out so that then you can take the published stories that are predicated upon debunked oppo and then secure through an unlawful process, a surveillance warrant on an Innocent American because he has wrong think. Okay.

17 (50m 46s):

Or Hunter and

4 (50m 47s):

Joe Biden. Yeah. Or Hunter and Joe Biden. you know, I mean, come on, they’re But they’re special Hurricane. Oh, they’re special. They’re the specialists. D different D different. That is correct sir. It’s d different. But he’s a product of that whole environment. and I think the reason why they’re mad at him now is because of what he was saying about immigration. Right. The stuff that he had said about immigration before it does seem, you know, seems a little weird that he comes out, he’d said in 23 that, what did he say? That that, you know, it’s a never ending problem.

4 (51m 27s):

The issue that they’re all dealing with, with the deluge of illegal immigration. That it’s a never ending problem. Huh. And then immediately they started investigating him after that So don don’t know, I just feel like he had said quote, this issue will destroy New York City. He said that in September of last year, he said that it was being destroyed by the influx of 110,000 asylum seekers. This is New York Times from the southern border. He didn’t see a way to fix the issue. He said, let me tell you something, new Yorkers never in my life had a, and there’s video of this. Never in my life have I had a problem that I did not see an ending to. I don’t see an ending to this. It’ll destroy New York City the moment he says this.

4 (52m 8s):

Literally. Then in November then they started, they opened a major federal corruption investigation into his fundraising. And they were, they’re accusing him of receiving illegal donations from the Turkish government, which is tantamount to conspiring with the Turkish government Right after he says this audio soundbite 16. Now this was, this was September of 23. After, I mean a month and a half after he says this, then a federal investigation is opened into him. Listen,

18 (52m 41s):

I have been fighting injustice my entire life. That fight has continued as your mayor, despite our police, when the federal government did nothing. Well, he says

4 (52m 53s):

He is being targeted

18 (52m 54s):

Immigration policies, overloaded our shelter system with no relief. I put the people of New York before party and politics.

4 (53m 3s):

So he had, he was, and this was in September. This was just the, this was actually today the, the video where he made the statement that the New York Times quoted him as saying he was speaking at an outdoor event in September of last year. And that’s when he made those claims. And then right after that, right after that, the investigation was opened. So, I mean, I think it’s a bit of both. I think he did, he did he probably like take, because when I was, when you read the indictment, he was taking like one of the, for instance, when he flew, I, I can’t remember where he was flying. He flew somewhere and he flew through Turkey, and he got upgraded business class and, but wasn like an $8,000 upgrade. And then another one was like a $12,000 upgrade, and then he didn’t disclose it.

4 (53m 48s):

And they’re saying that, that that should have been disclosed and it’s illegal that it wasn’t. And as a result, you know, you’re, it, it, it could be considered for an influence. And then there were, when he would go and stay at different, like he stayed at the St. Regis I think when he didn’t he go to assemble or something? He stayed in St. Regis and, but wasn, you know, super swanky. It’s a super swanky hotel and apparently, but wasn comped for him. And he also got like an upgrade there and it was comped for him and all this stuff very, you know, expensive and he didn’t disclose it. and there’s other things, I mean, it’s not like, you know, he was selling access to the mayor oral office, really, you know, in exchange for blood diamonds or don don’t know stock in the Chinese company, but wasn taking over a giant cobalt mine in the Dominican Republic, or not Dominican, the people’s Democratic Republic of Congo, the way Hunter Biden did.

4 (54m 42s):

But hey, it’s D different, right? Yeah. And actually it’s Hunter Biden. If you wanna have a discussion of race, I think you could probably justifiably propose one there. But you know what, if just saying so he was getting heckled when he was given. I just don’t care. I mean, I, I, it’s the Democrat’s problem. Let them deal with it. I just think it’s funny. and I think Republicans should hammer at home that the moment that he started talking about immigration, that’s when Democrats decided he was a liability. All of a sudden they discovered that they don’t like foreign influence, but they love it all the other times that it doesn’t prove to be disadvantageous for them. You can’t have a Democrat out there causing waves on immigration in an election cycle. That’s what this is. So they’re trying to fix it.

4 (55m 22s):

They’re trying to fix it by taking him out. Just saying, we got more on the way. Oh, and also we’re gonna talk about, you know, who’s I in that position? you know, who wants to be the mayor? Don’t call it a comeback. He’s been here for years. Andrew Cuomo. Whoa. The guy who killed all y’all grandparents in New York. We’re gonna talk about that coming up. Also, Biden’s unveiling a new anti-gun executive order. We’ll talk about all of that and more coming up as we move.

Can we just like, do air guitar and like we are coming in with a little Metallica, we’re in a very musical mood right now. Yeah, it’s Thursday. We’re coming in towards the end of the week. And also we, we were playing on Kamala Harris’s, Eccle, Ecclesiastes Blunder Blunder. and I had an idea for a theological punk band that covers Psalms. Right, right. And so Kane ran it through AI and it’s actually, it’s not bad. Give it a You got it, we got it up. Yeah.

11 (1h 3m 24s):

It’s not licensed or anything

It’s actually, it’s actually not bad, dude. It’s actually not bad.

11 (1h 4m 15s):

I’m in, I didn’t think AI could do

4 (1h 4m 17s):

This. I didn’t either. I really wanted to hate it. I wanted to hate it so bad. I was always prejudiced against it. I am, I am technologically prejudiced. And So I was already prejudiced against it. And it, it actually is, is not bad. It’s actually pretty good. I’m not gonna lie. That’s, and

11 (1h 4m 37s):

Apparently AI improves itself. Like when you, you sort of edit the type of style, like remember we had first iterations of these songs and they were more like, like Irish punk sort of

4 (1h 4m 48s):

Drop kick Murphy ish. Yeah. It was like, it was like you had a bunch of people in an Irish pub who decided to set down their Guinness and then knock out a banner. Right. That’s what it, you know, and then this sound

11 (1h 4m 55s):

Like that. Then it sort of morphed into what we are hearing now. and I think there’s even more generations. It

4 (1h 4m 60s):

Sounded almost, it got into shanty territory. It did just a wee bit.

11 (1h 5m 5s):

It did. The Ecclesiastes,

4 (1h 5m 8s):

The Ecclesiastes. I, I like, I would see them, I would go to a dive bar where there’s probably not doors on the stalls in the women’s room. I would go there and watch that band. Absolutely. Yeah. So I mean we could do it. We, I mean, we were talking about how, I mean, I play instruments. I can play rhythm guitar poorly. I can play drums. Yeah. I could, you know, knock out something crude and you know, you know, could like, like a opening act at a dive bar. I could do that. But, you know, we ran it through AI for the purpose of time and it’s actually not bad. Not bad at all. Yeah,

8 (1h 5m 38s):

I’ve heard worse.

4 (1h 5m 40s):

I mean, and I love it even more because it’s ours. Yeah. So I. Don’t know. I feel like Yeah, that’s, that’s what I, I I I love it. I Can you play it again? Will you play it again please? I really like this song. It’s the Ecclesiastes, our theological punk band

20 (1h 5m 57s):

Declare decree. The Lord said,

4 (1h 6m 12s):

They just say things like

20 (1h 6m 13s):

20 (1h 6m 16s):

It’s cooler.

20 (1h 6m 26s):

4 (1h 6m 28s):

Oh, it’s so good, dude. I would So I would so see them. It’s a jam man. That’s a jam. Not bad. Hey Steve,

8 (1h 6m 36s):

What’s up?

4 (1h 6m 37s):

Does that slap

8 (1h 6m 39s):

It does sound like a sea shanty a little bit though.

4 (1h 6m 42s):

See? Yeah, it did. It is a little sea shanty ish. Although

8 (1h 6m 45s):

When we were talking about Ecclesiastic So, I thought it sounded, that sounded like a something You majored in college, you know.

4 (1h 6m 51s):

Well, I mean, yes and no, but, but so Kamala Harris was trying, can we play her thing, her thing real quick? It’s real short. She was trying, don don’t know what she was trying to say. Ecclesiastes. And she got the name of the, she got the book wrong. Listen,

5 (1h 7m 4s):

You know, there’s a time for patience and there’s a timeframe impatience that’s not in Ecclesiastes, but, but

4 (1h 7m 12s):

Yes, that’s right. Ecclesiastes. Yeah. She knows Kamala Harris just referenced our punk band. Right? That’s right. So thanks Kamala. Yeah, thanks Kamala. I actually now, I mean it’s, I I I’m, I’m gonna actually take this to the nth degree because I’m really, I I actually like it. Alright. So in the spirit of punk bands, it’s like the most awkward segue ever in the spirit of punk bands. Have you ever heard of a Suic have suicide pod? It’s not a punk band. Actually, it’s a way to die. Like an actual way to die. This is, I think these things are terrifying.

4 (1h 7m 52s):

So the BBC, the British Broadcasting Company has a story of how police in Switzerland made multiple arrests after a woman reportedly ended her life using a So-called suicide pod, which almost sounds like an nx s song, but that’s blonde. It’s apparently the first case of its kind. Okay, so here’s where it gets super weird for me. I am fascinated by this story, and here’s why. When you think of suicide pod and like going to Merck yourself in a pod, I just think that I’m going into this like matrix type of environment where they have got them all lined up and you go lay and you, you press a button and it ha it like squirts gas in there.

4 (1h 8m 35s):

So this lady, she apparently had like, I guess a, a, a degenerative disease or something like that. And she had been sick for a long time. and I, I, no, I’m not in support of euthanasia. She had been sick for a long time and the, I guess she wanted to go into the suicide pod. So she’s 64 years old. She uses, she’s an American woman. And so she goes to this place out in the woods in northern Switzerland. So instead of going into this like matrix type environment, she’s literally out into the woods. They had this pod out in the forest and the maker of the Sarco suicide pod, they said that they wanted her to go under a canopy of trees.

4 (1h 9m 25s):

It was, it, it’s designed to allow a person inside to push a button and inject nitrogen gas into the sealed chamber. And then they fall asleep and then suffocate to death in a matter of minutes. So, and if you thought, if you wanted to know if the guy who made it looks nuts, he does, he, the guy who in who invented it is, you know, it, it looks nuts. So she’s out, you know, in the woods in Switzerland, in this space pod, and they put it out in the woods. So she gets in to the space pod or the, the, the suicide pod. And they said she pressed the button almost immediately. And it took like five minutes. I, they said that, you know, they could see her, she, they could tell when she went unconscious and her muscles were twitching.

4 (1h 10m 8s):

And then that said, the police showed up and they found a woman’s body in the pot. So I got a lot of questions also now too. Like, did they leave her there? Like how did that work? I mean, don’t you get it out? And, and also I know this is, this is how my mind works. Please don’t judge me. But you know what, the first thing I thought of when I saw it, there was a picture of it online and like, it’s o you know, it showed it open and it showed the guy invented it getting into it a

6 (1h 10m 33s):

Tanning bed.

4 (1h 10m 34s):

It does actually look like, it looks like an old tanning bed. Yes. But when you get in there just saying, not that I supported or ever would you have to know that it’s been used before. Ew. Is that weird?

6 (1h 10m 48s):

Well, you’re dying, so what?

4 (1h 10m 50s):

Yeah, but it’s weird though, right?

11 (1h 10m 53s):

Yeah. I guess if you’re,

4 (1h 10m 54s):

I mean, it’s weird that you’re going into a pod to die, but

11 (1h 10m 57s):

I think the mindset of people who are wanting to do this, they’re least concerned. They’re, the concern at the bottom of their list of concerns would be that someone else died there.

4 (1h 11m 8s):

Because I would be like, did someone crack their pants in here? No. No. Like, did they mess themselves in here? Like, you know, ’cause they’re bo like, when the body goes, you lose control of those functions, right? That’s true. So it’s like, ooh, was it icky? Like who had to clean that up? Did they clean it? Well, because can you, you’re in the pod and you’re pressing the button. Not that I would ever do this or suggest that you do this, it’s horrible. But what if you notice like some gunk in it, like, oh, they didn’t get this spot and then you’re dead. That sucks. That’s a horrible way to go. I don’t

11 (1h 11m 36s):

Think people are gonna be concerned with that.

4 (1h 11m 38s):

Honestly. That’s totally what I would be. I’m like,

11 (1h 11m 40s):

I’m getting in there to die. The fact that it might have a little gunk in there is probably gonna gonna be, you’re

4 (1h 11m 45s):

Getting into like a nasty like hobo pod. That’s gross. This So I mean that’s not what this, you’re getting getting in the pod to murk yourself. But shouldn’t it be a clean going? you know, it’s so weird. I mean, I feel bad for the lady who thought she had no other choice and it, and they, and they said that they put it out in the woods so she could look at the trees in the sky. I, or because it’s easier to hose it off. I don Dunno, just, oh man, it’s so weird. She, she cashed out her life savings and flew to Switzerland to do this. I and I don’t know. And it’s, it’s weird.

4 (1h 12m 27s):

This whole thing is weird. And now there’s like accusations towards the group Of course. It’s called The Last Resort. Who they said that they, that they wanted to, they spent her money and wanted it to be, they told her she would need it after she was dead. And they said that her family saying that they took advantage of her, that would, that’s one of the accusations. But the, the, the po this is just all so weird. It’s just so weird. And they said that when you get in it, it, it has a little voice that, that says quote, if you want to die, press this button. No. Yeah. A ajas France press gotta look at it.

4 (1h 13m 7s):

And that’s what it says. If you want to die, press this button. Is

11 (1h 13m 10s):

There another button that you just last minute decided you wanna live, that you press?

4 (1h 13m 15s):

Is the cleanliness not up to your standard press this button? Is the

11 (1h 13m 19s):

Lid locked until you decide to die? Or is it

4 (1h 13m 22s):

Yeah, I don’t, yeah, I guess it seals you up in there. Good lord. Ooh, it’s just so weird. Like you, you’re don don’t know, but it does also sound like a punk band suicide pod opening for the Ecclesiastes one disapproves of the other. Hmm. don don’t know. Steve says it looks like a bad transformer emphasis on trans, what? It does look like a bad, like seventies transformer. you know, it looks like a pager. A giant pager that’s out in the woods, right?

11 (1h 13m 55s):

A giant flip

4 (1h 13m 55s):

Phone. Be careful because if it’s from Taiwan and a Israeli company out there could blow up just saying, just saying, I’ve got, I just, I am fascinated by this thing. But that’s what it says to you. Like when you get in, like, press this button if you want to die, it’s a 3D printed capsule and you get in it and you press the button and that’s it. That’s horrible. That’s just so bad. I mean, and this woman was 60. She’s young, right? You you’re telling me she couldn’t get any other, you know, don don’t know. I, I, it’s just the whole thing is weird to me. But the, the, they’re trying to call it the Tesla of euthanasia.

4 (1h 14m 36s):

What a disregard for life, right? This is like mass produced life ending. This is horrible. And it’s outta Switzerland. Can I also say, you know, and I love the Swiss, but man this are some pretty weird Nordic ideas up there. Let’s just create a pod that’ll mur you like that in minutes and then they’ll have a whole line of them up. It’s weird, although like some of the best horror movies come from up there just saying,

11 (1h 15m 1s):

I was reading too, like they don’t say how they dispose of the body, do they? No. So they

4 (1h 15m 7s):

Does it

11 (1h 15m 8s):

Like, open the lid and hope for wolves? Like what do they

4 (1h 15m 11s):

They open the lid and they do hope for wolves. Okay. No, I mean, I, I don’t know if all of them are like out in nature, but I’m just, I’m, I’m a little curious because it looks like it could lean up and just dump you out. What if it does that? What if it like, rehas your dead body out of the pod? Well, look, if you’re murking yourself in a pod, let’s just drop all pretense of, you know, taste here. You’re, you’re murking yourself in a pod. Nobody should be offended if I’m like, does it reha your dead carcass out of it? I mean, it, it’s hor it’s all

11 (1h 15m 45s):

Horrible. Would it surprise you to find out there are people lined up to do this? That there is a line of

4 (1h 15m 49s):

People that makes me sad. That there are people that are lined

11 (1h 15m 52s):

Up to do this on. There’s a waiting list to do

4 (1h 15m 54s):

This. Are you serious?

11 (1h 15m 55s):

120 people. Apparently there are some 120 applicants hoping to use the machine to end their lives according to the last resort.

4 (1h 16m 5s):

That’s so sad to me. I feel like the guy who’s doing this, who created this whole thing is, I, I just think that it’s exploitative and you’re preying upon people at like a horrible time in their lives. I agree. And then I I, and it makes me feel sad that these people don’t have a support network. I mean, the pot is ludicrous, but it, you know, it doesn’t distract from just the sadness that I feel for people who feel like they gotta do this. It’s just, ugh. Ugh. Goodness. Why does the guy who they call Dr. Death, he’s this Australian euthanasia advocate. Why do these people always look like freaks? I know they always look like freaks. Do they not?

11 (1h 16m 40s):

Wasn’t it kevorkian for us? In, in Michigan? Yeah, Michigan I think or something.

4 (1h 16m 44s):

They always look like, like, you know, they are the villains. You immediately know, oh, that’s the bad guy. ’cause he looks like the bad guy. He’s a just, they just, you know, they got a look. All right, we got more on the way. Sweet. So weird segment.

Environment is it seems we’ve lost the ability to have civil discourse. I was at one of the most prestigious graduate schools studying theology and the first document they gave me was on inclusivity.

Can I do, man, if I were to come into any with, into this with beside the Florida man thing with any song, I think it’d be jukebox Hero maybe. No. Did you guys hear about this, this Flo? So these dudes got into a fight over the jukebox, what was playing on a jukebox. And this dude ended up getting shot. So a Florida man was shot dead after he got into a a, a dispute over a jukebox song. And it was at a Mexican restaurant. and I love how they’re like, it turned violent. It was in Fort Lauderdale early Monday morning. It was an argument over a jukebox song. And the dispute began. The dispute began at this restaurant when one man began commenting on another person’s music selection, according to authorities said Maro Bunia.

4 (1h 18m 57s):

He said to WSV and tv. I heard there was two guys and they got into an argument ’cause he sounds like he’s from Jersey. ’cause one of them played a song in the jukebox and the other guy was kind of ticked off. And he goes, the guy who got insulted pulled his weapon and started shooting the other guy. They actually wrote it phonetically as he said it. they said the guy drew his weapon first and the other. So one of them played a song on the machine and the other guy was mad and said, you’re not a real Mexican if you play that bur music is what he said. Which then made me stop and go, well, how can, what is not real Mexican then? Like, if, if he played, what did he play that he got accused of not being a real Mexican, right? Dark

The other guy was taken into custody and man, they had just, out of all the stories, a Florida man wearing an ankle monitor tried kidnapping attempts at kidnapping in a Walmart parking lot, spotted when legs were flailing out the truck. According to the affidavit, the Juan Marcos Perez, he tried to kidnap a woman in Orlando and he had an ankle monitor on, and it was 4:30 PM Monday. And he tried to put her in the trunk of the car and he was threatening to kill her.

4 (1h 20m 35s):

And witnesses said that she watched, she turned and looked as the victim’s legs were flailing outta the trunk. They did get him. They saved the woman and they got her. He’s going to court now. Obviously. He’s in, he’s in prison. Third hour on the way. Stay with us.

4 (1h 21m 47s):

Welcome back to the program ladies and gentlemen. Dana Lash here with you at the top of our third hour, this broadcast Thursday. and there is a new executive order out, a new executive order that targets machine guns and 3D printed, 3D printed firearms, uns, serialized firearms, all which are already regulated by the federal government. Now this was announced just a little bit ago, the, these executive orders, it was announced last, actually Monday, I think that they were gonna put forward more executive orders on guns.

4 (1h 22m 32s):

And so you kind of knew we, I mean we really didn’t have an idea as to what, what they were going into, but it looks like, so they, they’re looking at, they have the, and I’ll write, I’m gonna write about this more over at Substack chapter and verse my newsletter, because it gets into a couple of things. Specifically the, it gets into drills. Like for instance, they said that they’re, he’s gonna have the Surgeon general and the secretaries of education and health and human services to develop and publish guidance for schools on how to conduct shooting drills and minimize, you know what they said?

4 (1h 23m 15s):

Try to, I, I mean they’re gonna do these, they’re gonna do drills and minimize unnecessary trauma, which that’s not, I mean, this is not an issue that I have with people. I, I hope they bring in like professionals to do these if they’re gonna do something like this. Because I don’t have a lot of faith in some of these institutions to discern what is a threat and what isn’t a threat. and I have a story that highlights that coming up. It, yeah, I mean we had tornado drills and that doesn’t, you just sit there like what? I mean, what do you mean?

4 (1h 23m 56s):

What kind of drills? I just feel like that’s not the right way to go. I mean, define, do whatever you have to do. I mean, have drills, have the locking doors, whatever. But when you’re not actually looking at the problem and ignoring it, like for instance, Parkland, Parkland can do a million different drills all they want to. But the problem was that there was clearly a threat. They, they all, all law enforcement knew it. The superintendent of the schools knew it. The teachers knew it. I talked to back when it happened, I talked to a teacher off the record who did not want her identity disclosed. And she was not the only teacher I spoke with at Parkland, either at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas. I talked to several educators and I talked to some people who work in administration.

4 (1h 24m 40s):

They all knew who this kid was, even though it’s a larger system. This, that killer was so bad. And he was so violent leading up to what happened. They all knew who he was. He had to have a mind that went to school with him. And they, he had been in trouble law enforcement. They, they were bragging about reducing the school to prison pipeline and much in the same way that they’re trying to pretend that the crime rate has gone down. It’s not that the crime rate has gone down. And it’s not that they did, it’s not that they actually reduced students getting in trouble with the law. It’s just that they literally stopped reporting it. And that killer in Parkland was one of the people whose crimes, they just stopped reporting.

4 (1h 25m 22s):

And I’m not talking about little misdemeanor stuff. I mean, there was like serious like felonious activity happening. I mean this, this killer previously already held a gun to a student’s head. He had knocked his own mother’s teeth out of her mouth. He was already threatening to kill students. He had been doing it, this was like months and months leading up to this, this tragedy. They had police go out to his house dozens of times and he had his, like this murderer’s own family was calling law enforcement. Robert Runcie knew about it. That bad cop sheriff knew about it as well. But see, they were trying to put on this front, well we gotta reduce, we have to make it look like we’re actually having an impact in reducing calls to law enforcement on, you know, from student body and all this.

4 (1h 26m 7s):

And they, Robert Ruey got an award from Arne Duncan who was at the time the head of Department of Education under Barack Obama. They gave Robert Ruey this big award because he had at least visibly reduced the school to prison pipeline that the number of criminal actions reported to law enforcement. And it wasn’t because they had rehabilitated the behavior of the student party. It was because they stopped reporting it. That’s not me saying it, it’s parents there saying it, it’s the teacher saying it. And it’s the official conclusion of the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas Commission that put that in a report. You, you can do drills all you want to when you are not accurately assessing and doing something to mitigate threats.

4 (1h 26m 53s):

I mean drills. And when you’re leaving your doors unlocked, doing all this other stuff and then not, I mean not doing anything about this, this killer who actually could have been adjudicated unfit. So he could have never really, never have gotten a firearm. And he probably could have been committed too, but nobody, law enforcement didn’t do anything. And they just, they, they, I mean the FBI was aware. I mean that’s how bad it was. So that’s, I I I don’t know, they don’t do anything to address that. There’s nothing in here that I’ve, and I’ve g glanced at it so far. I haven’t read all of it all the way, but I’ve been, glancing and I haven’t seen anything yet that addresses it beyond they wanted talk about drills.

4 (1h 27m 33s):

Right, okay. I mean, you’re doesn’t doing a drill by itself kind of create trauma because they said, oh, we wanna minimize unnecessary trauma. Well, doing a drill when you won’t do anything else to protect students, does that, I mean, that just seems like you’re introducing trauma because, and then you’re also trying to convince them that something that is statistically super rare is an inevitable reality. And that is also traumatic. You’re, you’re conditioning them to think that and it’s, you know, one mass casualty incident as a school is one too many. But these are rare occurrences. And it seems like you’re, you’re trying to condition kids into thinking that it is an inevitable occurrence.

4 (1h 28m 18s):

When it is a rare thing. Then they look at machine, like the machine, machine conversion devices by the way, the whole report that they’re doing. ’cause they have their task force that’s looking at, at machine guns and the conver the conversion devices, whatever. That’s, that report is not even gonna be submitted until post-election. Like you’re like three months after the election is when that report’s not even due. And the ability to put a switch on for the, just put it in layman’s terms, put a switch on a gun and make it full auto is already regulated. That’s, that’s a, that’s it’s illegal. It’s already regulated.

4 (1h 28m 59s):

So I don’t know how you make that illegal or with their, it feels like they wanna, it feels like they’re blaming Glock. They hate Glock. Glock is a Austrian company. They don’t like Glock and I feel like they want them to maybe change how they make their firearms. So that, I don’t know. It’s what it feels like. It feels like they’re just weird. I mean, if their argument is gonna be that well anything can be converted and because anything could be converted, then we will just ban all the things. It seems like a move in that direction. Of course. It really does. But then I mean that, that’s, if, if the argument is well anything can be a machine gun, then we’ll ban all of it. That also is a very interesting argument as it relates to law enforcement too.

4 (1h 29m 41s):

But that’s a whole other discussion. So this is don don’t know, it’s, it, it looks kind of nonsensical. They are talking about the, they address the emerging threat of firearm without serial numbers also refer to as ghost guns. Well, you to be able to, you can’t sell firearms without there being a serial number on it. That’s also regulated number one. Number two, there isn’t, there’s not evidence to support that. This idea of uns serialized or what they’re trying to say is privately made by hobbyists. But they don’t wanna get into the weeds on that. They want you to think that there’s an epidemic of uns serialized guns, which actually was a manufacturing thing that again, the government exploited and turned into a tracking system.

4 (1h 30m 27s):

But they wanna make it, they wanna make it seem like it’s an epidemic and that some and that something has to be done when it’s actually, again, that’s not what drives the crime. That’s not what, that’s not what felons when they’ve been surveyed by the DOJ twice now under Barack Obama, that’s not where they’re getting their stuff. they said that they wanna focus the ATFs resources on identifying developments and illicit firearm mark marketplaces, including the use of new technologies. What are you talking about? To make an undetectable firearms that all this other, they at some point they’re probably gonna be in 3D printing machines. I’m just waiting for that to happen. But they have the machine conversion, the machine gun conversion devices, the 3D printed firearms, they wanna go after 3D printed firearms. they said that they can be used for illegal purposes like gun trafficking, et cetera.

4 (1h 31m 10s):

They’re not, people aren’t out there fabricating their own guns though. There’s no evidence to support that accusation there. There isn’t. And furthermore, I mean when you’re talking about 3D printed guns, they’re even, you have to have good quality material. There’s a, that’s a big conversation that look gang bangers are not having, they’re not getting 3D printers and printing the stuff off in their garages. That’s just entirely wholly unsupported by the evidence. It, it, it, I mean people can get say otherwise, but the evidence doesn’t support that. It sounds like they wanna go after 3D printing though. Interesting. So it, this is basically, this is, they’re just using this as a political football in an election season.

4 (1h 31m 52s):

That’s what it is. It’s just a political football in an election season. But you can’t underestimate that and think that nothing will come of it or that it won’t be used, won’t be further used by the left because they always, they always throw a bunch of stuff out there and then they’ll stake the claim on one. So they always try to gain some kind of ground no matter what. So that’s the latest that eo from the Biden administration, by the way, we were talking about the suicide pod a little bit earlier and, and Lorraine said that the pod dete, because you, you apparently, we are trying to figure out what you do. Is it used, like how do you get out of it? Like does it just like, you know, fling your body into

25 (1h 32m 33s):

The

4 (1h 32m 33s):

Water like, like a highland fling? Does it just like throw it into the atmosphere? Like what happens? She says it detaches and it’s used as your coffin and then they 3D print another one for the next person. Oh,

11 (1h 32m 46s):

So that quells your fears of gunk being in there, somebody else’s

4 (1h 32m 49s):

Well I think they’re horrible feasts, but I’m just like, yeah, like did they clean it up? ’cause it’s nasty. Like people don’t, you lose control of your stuff.

11 (1h 32m 56s):

You also brought up a great question so they don’t embalm them.

4 (1h 32m 60s):

Well that’s what I asked. I’m like, do they do, do they embalm the people in there? They’re just like, okay, it’s done. Because you’re, then you’re in there and you’re like all juicy still. So come on. But still, you know, for real, like what Ew,

25 (1h 33m 13s):

Juicy

4 (1h 33m 13s):

Let’s, yeah, that’s, it turns into like a Cadbury a gross Cadbury egg. That’s

11 (1h 33m 18s):

The adjective you chose.

4 (1h 33m 19s):

Well, I’m just trying to, Lord, it’s sad and I feel sad for the people who feel like there’s no other option. But do you realize how ludicrous this thing is? You go into a giant space egg that marks you.

25 (1h 33m 30s):

It is,

26 (1h 33m 32s):

It’s like Mork from Orc only written reverse.

4 (1h 33m 35s):

And it, it’s so, it, it’s such an anticlimactic way to go get into your egg. Okay, bye now. Then they’ll bury you in it. That’s don don’t know. I know. It’s a very macabre thing. It’s spooky season. So I I. don don don’t know. Just the whole thing is odd. So the other thing we were discussing is this Eric Adams, they said he’s taken, what was the, lemme look at this. What was the number that he took over a hundred thousand dollars in bribes. I made the point that he’s almost taken as much as the Biden’s. And the Clintons

25 (1h 34m 6s):

Almost,

4 (1h 34m 7s):

Almost. He’s almost taken, I mean, it’s not anywhere near what they’ve taken, but you know, he’s almost there. He’s almost there. and I don don’t know. It’s sad that we’re, that we just assume that, okay, well this is, this is Democrats, this is what they do. This is how they, how they operate. This is, you know, it’s sad that it is so customary with either Bob Menendez, they got Hunter Biden and Joe Biden and the Clintons and Eric Adams. Andrew Cuomo though thinks that he’s got a shot. He thinks he’s got a shot. Andrew Cuomo is eyeing this up one side and down the other.

4 (1h 34m 49s):

He’s looking, he thinks that he actually may be able to get in there and become mayor. He’s eyeing a comeback. Axios has the story, how he’s already floating it out there to folks that he’s preparing to run for mayor. You remember disgraced former New York governor Andrew Cuomo, who killed all Y’s grandparents in New York there. He’s, he’s, he wants to go from a disgrace governor. He was, he the only reason that he was actually forced to resign was because of a sexual harassment scandal. Not because he killed everybody’s grandparents. So now he’s considering a comeback. We’re gonna talk about this coming up. Firehouse

So Wealthy Gen Zers are leaving California according to a new study. The, they’re leaving, they, they’re defined as people who run households under the age of 26 if they bring in more than $200,000 a year. So they’re classified as high earners by the IRS because of their agent income. And they said that Wealthy Gen Zers are leaving and they’re going, they’re leaving West Coast entirely. A lot of them are going to, in fact, this is, they’re where they’re going to, where’s New York? They, which is blows my mind. Why are they going to New York, Florida, Tennessee, Colorado, and Texas.

4 (1h 36m 59s):

Those are the top five I think if you go to New York, because maybe if they wanna live in the city, you know, if they’re, they’re young, they don’t have kids, maybe they think that’s where to go. How weird is that though? Those states saw the biggest influx of top earning Gen Z household New York is. No, that’s so weird to me. But don don’t. Mm, it’s what it is. The same. you know, also a couple other Of. course it’s not gonna pull up. It may not pull up. Let’s see here.

And they were able to get people out and they, they don’t really say anything about the perp only that they were able to take them into custody. And that’s kind of it.

Expanding that child tax credit. Or you mentioned housing before, giving that extra money for a first home. If you can’t raise corporate taxes or if GOP takes control of the Senate, where do you get the money to do that? Do you still go forward with those plans and borrow

5 (1h 39m 38s):

Well, but we’re gonna have to raise corporate taxes and we’re gonna have to raise, we’re gonna have to make sure that the biggest corporations and billionaires pay their fair share. That’s just it. It’s about paying their fair share. I’m not mad at anyone for achieving success, but everyone should pay their fair share. And it is not right. Say a couple more times. The teachers and the firefighters that I meet every day across our country are paying a higher tax.

4 (1h 40m 7s):

They’re not

5 (1h 40m 8s):

Than the richest people in our country. They’re

28 (1h 40m 10s):

Really not. They just said it this week. If he was in charge of taxes, he would’ve paid more. But how do you find that line to make sure corporations are paying their fair share but they’re not leaving our country.

5 (1h 40m 21s):

Well, listen, I work with a lot of CEOs, I have spent a lot of time with CEOs and I’m gonna tell you that the business leaders who are actually part of the engine of America’s economy agree that people should pay their fair share. They also agree that when we look at a plant such as mine that is about investing in the middle class, investing in new industries, investing in bringing down costs, invest in entrepreneurs like small businesses, but the overall economy is stronger and everyone benefits

4 (1h 40m 53s):

That is, first off, she knows nothing

29 (1h 40m 56s):

Less than

4 (1h 40m 57s):

Oh but wasn, but wasn, Kamala Harris’ interview with Stephanie Rule who what in the Wednesday, Adams hell and I say this is a goth kid. Was she wearing, that’s not an appropriate outfit for that. And also why the red shoes with it? That’s just not no, but not that aside. I she just, did you see, did you watch her expression, Harris’s expression when she’s talking? ’cause she doesn’t know what she’s saying. She has no idea how to answer this question because she doesn’t know anything about the economy. So she’s like, well pay their fair share. Just, she just, her brain went there because that’s, she defaulted to it because, but wasn her highest level of knowledge on it. Just pay their fair share.

4 (1h 41m 37s):

you know, if they, if they pay their share, which is fair, if they share fairly, you know, what they get what their pay, pay their fair share, share their fair pair, pay their share. Fa it’s like, she’s like, Moy Rose. If you love fruit wine as much as I do, you’ll love earth bar flickers wine, birth har flicker. That’s if you just pay your fair share, share fair pair hair, that’s all you gotta do. Pay your fair hair, it’s pay your fair hair. That’s, there’s a wise rabbit in the top hat.

4 (1h 42m 22s):

I don’t even know, man. Where’s it happen? Where’s it going? don? Don’t know. That’s so stupid. It’s based on a myth. It’s because we’ve all that. So first off, number one, I don’t understand though, when, when you look at the most recent data that is available, and I got tons of notes on this, I, it, it’s pretty stunning. When you see who actually does pay the fair share in 2021, the top 1%, they earned 26% of income, but they paid like over 47% of all the federal income taxes. That’s just the very, very top 1%. Huh? Is that the fair share? They paid more than the bottom 95% combined.

29 (1h 43m 4s):

Huh?

4 (1h 43m 5s):

So what’s, how do you, so you’re saying that they have to pay more to make it fairer.

11 (1h 43m 11s):

Wait, are you saying the rich, the top 1% Yeah.

4 (1h 43m 15s):

Are paying the top 1%. They’re

11 (1h 43m 16s):

Paying 95% of the tax burden?

4 (1h 43m 19s):

Yes. Well, no, I’m saying they’re paying more than the bottom 95% that’s combined. Right? That’s, I mean, that’s what I mean. So, so they’ve earned 26% of the income, but they’re paying like 47% of all federal income taxes.

11 (1h 43m 31s):

So it sounds like we need numbers from them. They need to be specific as to what looks, looks

4 (1h 43m 36s):

Like. So, so if they pay more, is that fairer? If you give up half your income and taxes, ugh, is that more than half your income to make it fairer while nobody, the other people don’t pay as much? I mean it’s, that’s these are like from, these are actual IRS, you know, the, I they, what do they, what do the hell they mean? The fair share thing? These people have no idea what this is. What

11 (1h 43m 59s):

I also hate is the, they conflate the two different numbers. Like they’ll say a dollar amount or they’ll say a percentage. Like, so if the rich are only paying 8% or they’re not paying, let’s say they’re only paying 2% and these firefighters and nurses and the people they like to bring up that are paying say 20 or 20. But

4 (1h 44m 16s):

Listen, because we got, you got the top 1%, you’re gonna get really mad. Ka do you want the top 10? Top 10? Because we move the top 1%. All right, so the top 10, maybe they don’t pay. Maybe if you put more people in there, they pay less.

11 (1h 44m 28s):

So these are the richest 10% of America.

4 (1h 44m 30s):

Okay, so you have the top 1% rem remember they pay, it’s like 47%. The top, I mean, what is it? The top 50% paid 97% of all federal taxes came. Look, that’s where you’re, that’s probably what you’re thinking about the 90 something percent. Yes. It’s the top 50% that paid. Actually it’s almost 98%. It’s approximately 97.7%. The bottom 50% paid 2.3.

11 (1h 45m 5s):

2.3.

4 (1h 45m 6s):

Yes. Yes.

11 (1h 45m 10s):

So the narrative’s a lie.

4 (1h 45m 12s):

Oh, my gosh, it’s a completely, totally a lie. I mean a thousand percent a lie. In looking at this, you have the top 1%. You have the, I’m trying to find my notes on, there’s a lot there. You have the top 10%. They, I mean the tax rate of the top 10% was like, what, 22%. And they ended up, I mean they ended up paying 75% of total income taxes paid. So the top 10%, actually it’s 76%. Sorry, it’s 75 point eights. So round up. So the top 10% pay 76 per pay.

4 (1h 45m 51s):

76% of all of the total income taxes. Are you okay? I think Cain literally just had a stroke. Are you okay over there? Seriously, you, are you breathing?

11 (1h 46m 2s):

I was looking it up too. and I saw what Carol Roth posted this morning. And a according to this, and this is just a screenshot of her Googling it. Yeah. 59.9%. So 60% of US households paid income tax in 2022. The remaining 40

4 (1h 46m 18s):

Paid nothing

11 (1h 46m 19s):

Paid, no taxes at all.

4 (1h 46m 22s):

They paid nothing. That is correct. That is correct. Oh, and by the way, all of the stuff that I’m, the figures that I’m citing, I’ll give you the, I’ll give you the website. It’s irs.gov/statistics/ So I tax stats, individual statistical tables by tax rate and income percentile. So it’s from the government. This is, yeah, but wait, there’s more. The bottom 50%, 2.3% is what they paid. Their tax rate was about 3.3%. Top 50% average tax rate, 16%, top 25 18%, top 10, 22%, top five, 23%, top one 26%.

11 (1h 47m 10s):

And I also feel like people don’t know what payroll taxes.

4 (1h 47m 13s):

No, they don’t

11 (1h 47m 14s):

Are. And what they mean and how it’s double dipped every time the company has to

4 (1h 47m 18s):

Write a paycheck. Oh yeah, that’s exactly. So the idea of fair share is an abs that’s for her to say this is, is is economically ignorant and it’s embarrassing. But she has no, I mean this is all she’s made of. Wait, this is okay. Audio soundbite 14. Stephanie rule was like te telling her, you’re not actually giving me straight answers on any of those stuff. Listen

28 (1h 47m 44s):

Work. And one could watch that and say, well, she didn’t give a clear, direct answer. That’s okay, because we are not talking about clear or direct issues. What,

4 (1h 47m 52s):

What? It’s okay to not have clear answers because we’re not, we don’t know what the hell we’re talking about. I mean, what in the nonsense is that? That’s crazy. That is so, that is so embarrassing. You guys. Audio soundbite six. It’s just she’s talking about her plan here guys, dreams and ambitions.

28 (1h 48m 19s):

Madam Vice president, you just laid out your economic vision for the future. Yeah, but still there are lots of Americans who don’t see themselves in your plans. For those who say, these policies aren’t for me, what do you say to them?

5 (1h 48m 36s):

Well, if you are hardworking, if you have the dreams and the ambitions and the aspirations of what I believe you do and what you’re in my plan, you know, I, I have to tell you I really love and I’m so energized. What? By what I know to be the spirit and character of the American people. We have

4 (1h 49m 4s):

Ambition. This is the black love campaign.

5 (1h 49m 5s):

We have aspirations. We have

4 (1h 49m 6s):

Dreams. She again, drunk Hallmark. That’s what it sounds like. It just doesn’t, she called, what did she say? The buzzword that she used. Oh, she was trying to say that She said holistic three times in a 15 second period.

30 (1h 49m 25s):

And inspiring.

4 (1h 49m 27s):

She said, looking holistically at the connection between that and housing and looking holistically at the incentives being the federal government can create for local and state governments to actually engage in planning in a holistic manner that includes prioritizing affordable housing. Hey, Kane, you like that holistic hippie stuff? How many times do you say holistic A day?

11 (1h 49m 50s):

None.

4 (1h 49m 50s):

How many times do you listeners out there and viewers say holistic a day? I literally never say it. I never ever say it.

11 (1h 49m 57s):

I can’t. I mean, I’ve said it to describe what other people have said. What

4 (1h 50m 0s):

Is holistically at the incent isn’t getting the federal and government involved, like literally the opposite of holistic. Yes. I, it’s, that’s so stupid. I just can’t, I don don’t know. I don’t think she understands that. She says, she talks in like Venn diagram word salad. That’s all it is. That’s all it is. That this should terrify you. She has no idea how to, she has no idea what to implement. She has no policies, economic policies. ’cause she doesn’t know how the economy works. She, she has never worked in, she doesn’t work in the private sector. She doesn’t work in businesses. She doesn’t know how to do that. I wanted to get to this story really quickly. I wrote about this over at Substack chapter in verse.

4 (1h 50m 41s):

You got this last night. If you’re a subscriber in Mountain View, Missouri, Liberty Middle sch, Liberty Middle School suspended 13-year-old Riley Gron because he made a gun out of Dr. Pepper cans. Like he didn’t fashion like a fireable gun out of Dr. Pepper cans. He laid actual Dr. Pepper cans on his bed in the shape of what looks like a lowercase k but it’s in the shape of a, a rifle. And so his school suspended him and they gave him two marks on his permanent record. One for cyber bullying and another for making a school threat. Even though he never made any threats ever to anybody, anything, anyone ever. And no bullying took place.

4 (1h 51m 22s):

This is what the school said. Quote, we have enough information to believe the video has caused fear for one student. So they, I was looking back at this, don don’t think the mom, ’cause we talked about this yesterday, don don’t think the mom is taking legal action, but I think that she should think about this. The anti-gun brigade has spent the last decade shaking kids down over Nerf guns. Remember that? Nerf guns, they went after a kid. He got kicked outta school because he had a Nerf gun. There was in New Jersey, Amazon, you can’t get Nerf guns. They like banned all these toy guns. They have scared kids over finger guns. You remember the 10-year-old who was suspended? ’cause he was playing outside. They were literally like playing cops and robbers. He was a fifth grader and he made a finger gun and he got suspended from school.

4 (1h 52m 6s):

I mean, I have so many examples of kids literally getting suspended from school for finger guns. It’s crazy. Or what about the kid who ate his pop tart at school and the shape of a gun and he got in trouble. This was in Maryland. A 7-year-old ate his Pop-Tart into the shape of a gun and got in trouble. It, it was at Park Elementary School, they suspended him at for two days. This is, and this is what I touched on when we were discussing the, the executive orders on gun control and they were talking about doing shooter drills. These school, like Liberty Middle School, has zero proper threat assessment capabilities. That’s appalling. They, they teach kids to fear non-threatening situations, but then they shame them for like listening to instinctual fear over, over actual threatening situations like the girl in Virginia who walked into the girl’s bathroom.

4 (1h 52m 55s):

And because a boy who played pretended to be a girl was allowed in there per school trans policies, he was able to attack the girl and brutally rape her in the school’s bathroom. So when you have Liberty Middle School that clearly can’t differentiate between a real and, and not real threat, it makes me concerned about their ability or lack thereof to properly handle anything, including actual threats. Like why didn’t they reach out to this kid’s mom to assess the potential threat level before they they suspended her kid? Or like, why didn’t the school tell the student that cans can’t hurt you? Or why didn’t the school reiterate that while one of these incidents is too many, they’re extremely, they’re very rare and preventable.

4 (1h 53m 39s):

’cause if anybody was bullied here, I think it’s this kid ri gron. They’re, they’re making everybody afraid over everything. When you make everybody afraid over everything, there’s security for No one. I don’t know. I I maybe when you consider that context, maybe it’s understandable that there was a kid who felt fear over a Dr. Pepper can. I mean, we tell kids not to eat Tide pods apparently. Some have to be told, maybe their parents should be told too at this point. But I, I really don’t think that the fear in this is genuine. I think honestly, it’s just politically motivated and they’re masking it as, as fear, which I think is so heinous and I don’t know. They’re, they’re, they’re punishing this innocent kid and I feel bad for him.

4 (1h 54m 21s):

But man, I really do think the mom should, you know, kind of honestly kind of look at her options here because this is gonna go on his record that’s gonna follow him like all throughout school. He’s gonna have a record and they’re gonna look at him as a troublesome kid.

Thank you for gathering. My name is Damian Williams and I the United States Attorney here in the Southern District of New York. Today we are announcing campaign finance, bribery, and conspiracy charges against Eric Adams, the mayor of New York City. As the indictment alleges, mayor Adams engaged in a long running conspiracy in which he solicited and knowingly accepted illegal campaign contributions from foreign donors and corporations. As we allege, mayor Adams took these contributions, even though he knew they were illegal, and even though he knew these contributions were attempts by a Turkish government official and Turkish businessmen to buy influence with him.

3 (1m 11s):
We also alleged that the mayor sought and accepted well over $100,000 in luxury travel benefits from some of the same foreign actors who arrange many of the illegal campaign contributions. These benefits included free international business class flights and opulent hotel rooms in foreign cities. The mayor had a duty to disclose these gifts on his annual public disclosure forms so that the public could see who was giving him what. But as we allege, year after year after year, he kept the public in the dark. He told the public he received no gifts even though he was secretly being showered with them.

3 (1m 52s):
We allege that Adams accepted these benefits knowing that they were given to him because of his position. And in exchange for some of those improper benefits, he intervened in the New York City Fire Department’s inspection process for a building owned and operated by the Turkish government, allowing it to open even though it had not passed the fire inspection.

4 (2m 12s):
So this is some of the latest with Eric Adams, who is, he’s being charged with all kinds of what, I guess they’re trying to say. He’s been under the influence of Turkey this entire time. So he’s getting all of these different charges against him, and that’s just some of the latest with it. Welcome to the, the radio program. It’s Thursday. Dana Lash with you. And we were following this story. I think there’s a lot of discussion that it’s because a lot of the things that Eric Adams had said about illegal immigration, et cetera, and that it’s the illegal immigration aspect of it. That that’s, that’s why like right after he said it, then that’s why he started, that’s why they started investigating him.

4 (2m 59s):
’cause it’s been like 10 months that they’ve been investigating him at this point. I think so. The, and we’re gonna follow up with all of this stuff. He just had a press conference where he was getting heckled at some of it. It was a really wild press conference. And the feds are laying out all the charges now. They were saying that he was taking bribes and that he wasn’t disclosing well, it was basically a constituted bribes and that he was, he’s taking bribes and he was basically in the pocket of Turkey this whole time. So Welcome to the program, we got a radio show to do. Other people apparently in this orbit need to be notified of that. You can find us over at Substack as well. We got a lot of stuff to hit, including the disastrous remarks from Kamala Harris where she, she made a speech and I talked about some of it last night on Fox.

4 (3m 45s):
And it was fairly ridiculous, the speech that she gave. And so this a just, just, I feel like Democrats are kind of falling apart when they’re not attacking themselves really. When they’re not attacking themselves, they’re entirely falling apart. So it’s, this is just some of the latest that we have and we’re gonna be, you know, sorry, we’re, we’re, we’re bringing it to you as we get it. But those charges that came out, I don don’t know if, I think that it’s related to his, his remarks on i on immigration. don don’t know if that’s like a conspiracy theory or not. I mean, he said some pretty crazy stuff before So I don’t believe that. He’s like some sort of hero of the right, or even really an ally of the right.

4 (4m 28s):
But, you know, I mean, he, he took bribes apparently. I mean, he was, a lot of it was like upgrades on flights and free stays when he would travel. And apparently he like always traveled through Turkey, et cetera, things of that nature. I wanted to play some audio for you of Kamala Harris’s, her disastrous remarks that she gave. ’cause she’s campaigning and she was trying, she did this sit down interview with Stephanie Rule, who was in a weird outfit. It’s like, don’t dress like one day Wednesday. Adams and red pumps, like when you’re trying to do a serious sit down, that’s fashion wear. That’s not anchor wear. But she did this weird sit down interview with Kamala Harris and they were in, I don’t know what the setting was. It was like they were in a Home Depot in the back room of a Home Depot.

4 (5m 9s):
But audio soundbite three is some of her. She spoke, this was at her fundraiser. So we have a, she had, she did two different things. She had the interview with M-S-N-B-C and then she also gave a campaign speech. This is part of her campaign speech. and I, just like I said last night, I don’t speak drunk Hallmark.

5 (5m 26s):
We need to guard that spirit. We have to guard that spirit. Let it always inspire us. Let it always be the source of our optimism, which is that spirit that is so uniquely American. And let that then inspire us by helping us to be inspired to solve the problems that so many face, including our small business owners.

4 (5m 59s):
Yeah.

6 (6m 0s):
Do we have the transcripts?

4 (6m 4s):
Yeah, apparently, whatever that is. Whatever. but wasn, whatever her remarks were there. What that, what do this is supposed to be about the economy. I don’t understand what it she’s talking about. When she says guard the spirit, what the hell does that mean? What does it mean to guard ones spirit? What does that she talking about? The spirit of American entrepreneurship. Because don don’t think that she understands it. If that’s what she’s talking about, you know, she doesn’t understand it. Is it the spirit of American guardianship? I I, I don’t know. don don’t know. I don’t know what that meant. I really don’t. I mean, she has no answer, no answer to anything. This is wait, audio soundbite two.

4 (6m 44s):
This is just when she keeps discussing, she the failed. And we’re gonna talk more about this, but I just gotta get these soundbites outta my system. Audio soundbite. Two,

5 (6m 52s):
We just need to move past the failed policies that we have proven don’t work.

4 (7m 4s):
I don’t even know what that means. She’s part of the pol someone tell her that she’s in the White House. I mean, she’s in Right? She’s still vice president. I didn’t fall down the steps this morning and like hit my head hard and you know, now I don’t understand what’s happening in the world. Correct, correct, correct. Yeah. don don’t know. I I don’t don don’t know what don don’t even know what, what half of what she’s don don’t even what this means. We need to move past the failed policies that prove. So is she indicting herself in this? I’m cur I’m very confused. don don’t know. Is she indicting herself in this? I’m not quite sure. Yeah. I I just know that this is the kind of stuff that does not resonate when you’re talking to people about the economy.

4 (7m 44s):
You better know what the hell you’re talking about because you’re talking to people who they’re, they’re struggling right now. I, I heard there was a soundbite, but wasn played yesterday somewhere. Not here, but I had heard it where it was one of her surrogates saying that people are misremembering. Yeah. The Trump economy. And that I heard that and it made me so angry when her surrogates are insisting that we are, that, that people are, are misremembering the Trump economy. I have that audio. Can you play that real quick? Because this right here, when you combine this is the messaging that they’re putting out that you all are stupid and that you can’t remember anything.

4 (8m 29s):
That you’re stupid, you’re misremembering your own bank account. And also, you know, we gotta guard the spirit. That’s what you’re getting from this administration. Listen to this. So this is one of her official campaign spokespeople. Listen, Chris Coons.

7 (8m 41s):
Yeah. Part of it is that Americans, when you ask the question, are you better off today than you were four years ago? Many Americans misremember just how bad the economy was four years ago. What?

4 (8m 52s):
Hmm.

6 (8m 53s):
Just misremembering.

4 (8m 54s):
What does that mean? Misremembering?

6 (8m 57s):
Is that called forgetting?

4 (8m 59s):
Yeah. I mean that’s, that’s, I would imagine that it’s that it’s called that. It’s called forgetting. Misremembering. We’re not misremembering anything. People are broke as hell. They’re broke. They can’t afford anything and they can’t afford anything because of this god awful administration. People are stressed to the max because this administration is driving everyone into an early grave because they’re, they’re, they’re stressing everybody out with the economy. They’re stressing people out with the possibility of taxes. And then we have this, you know, pick me girl who is the vice president of the United States. I’ve never seen anyone so damn lazy who worked so little in their life that got handouts to get to where she is.

4 (9m 40s):
’cause it’s exactly what it is she gave us. Every time she sits here and says that she’s from the middle class, that angers me. You’re not from the middle class. You do. You guys know that before she started her illustrious story about being bused, that she went to a ridiculously expensive primary school. That’s like $25,000 a term. Her, she had two PhD parents that work in Ivy League universities. They lived in one of the wealthiest areas in Berkeley, California. And she’s gonna sit here and try to act like she’s one of you. That she’s middle class. She’s worked in the public sector ever since she was an adult. She’s never worked in the private sector ever. She’s always been in the, she’s always been on the government.

4 (10m 20s):
Tet always, these are people who have no idea what it means to build anything. These are people who have no idea the stresses of small business and making payroll and hiring and being the first to, to arrive in the last to leave. And they don’t understand any of this. And that’s why she sounds like a damn drunk Hallmark card whenever she talks about the economy. She doesn’t understand what payroll taxes are. I don’t believe she does. don don’t even think she could define capital gains if her life depended on it. She doesn’t understand basic e anything base related to business or basic economic principles. She doesn’t understand it. She has the mentality of a barely educated college freshman who’s a Marxist and has yet to take an econ class because everything she talks about relating to the economy reflects that everything that she has proposed so far, when you know, I mean, mostly it’s vagaries, but everything that she has proposed thus far has been, I mean, when you follow it to its logical conclusion, it is the utter destruction of the American economy.

4 (11m 21s):
She was going off on tariffs. She was going off on and, and look, tariffs. That’s a little bit of a nuanced area. She couldn’t even define a tariff if her life depended upon it. I, it angers me, it pisses me off as a woman. Do you know why? Because women, I don’t mind if you have a Margaret Thatcher type president, but you’re gonna get a horrible woman in that office. And then women are never gonna be able to get that office again. At least in my lifetime, because we’re gonna have blown our shot. Because we have someone who is, who’s a barely literate, who, who’s gotten to where she is because she checks boxes. Because she is a political identity. That’s why don’t act like it’s, everything I’m saying is offensive because it’s true.

4 (12m 3s):
And the reason people are offended because it’s true. And they have to admit, wow, we only want this person because of completely shallow cosmetic things that they were born with and couldn’t change.

And now all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s quick five.

4 (14m 54s):
So the courts blocked Ken Paxton’s appeal. They’re gonna have a gun ban at the state fair of Texas, which has been one of the most peaceful and least crime affected areas in all of the United States of America, particularly Texas. There’s no crime at all whatsoever that ever happens in Arlington, Texas. True. There’s never been any crime that’s ever happened at the state fair of Texas. And I’m sure that they have more than enough resources to keep everyone safe from the gang bangers and the drug dealers that don’t exist and are prevalent in the area when people go and are disarmed. So go and eat your giant meat on a stick. Don’t get shot. Everything

12 (15m 26s):
You said was false

4 (15m 28s):
Maybe is it, is it fake news or is it not? Nobody knows. Do they? Yeah. The state court of appeals. So he’s taken it all the way up. Go Paxton. Also Colorado tops the United States in cocaine use again. And honestly, if I had to live next to some of the dirty hippies that are now like all throughout Colorado with their pot shops, I’d probably have to use cocaine too. Marks the second time in three years that Colorado tops the country and admitted cocaine use. People are just like, yeah, we’re on cocaine. So, and makes sense of Venezuelan games and everything in there. Well, yeah. Six people are hurt in an explosion from an intentionally set IED as opposed to an accidentally set IED outta a Santa Monica courthouse in California.

4 (16m 9s):
you know, you don’t accidentally set your IEDs, the man, and this is just the headline over at a BC News, the story, but wasn probably headlined by the editor, but it took three people to write 500 words. The explosion was around 8:48 AM Wednesday, the Santa Maria Courthouse in Santa Barbara. And it was a small, I mean, they, they said it, it was an explosion. That’s why they got such crazy security of courthouses. Let’s see, China test fires and intercontinental ballistic missile into the Pacific Ocean. I’m sure they meant for it to go into the atmosphere, but it probably just straight the hell up just shot into the water because it’s China. Also, Nancy Pelosi’s husband, in what I’m sure is just a total coincidence, sold more than $500,000 worth of Visa stock just weeks before the Department of Justice’s antitrust lawsuit.

4 (16m 56s):
you know, it’s just, he’s got very good in instincts and I’m sure he doesn’t trade on his wife’s insider knowledge at all whatsoever. you know, the guy who was assaulted in his underwear by another guy who, I’m not a conspiracy theorist, was it his boyfriend? Don Don’t know, but he was a BLM Marxist progressive antitrust cops also alleged that Visa was forcing financial tech firms to work with it by threatening to penalize people who don’t like Democrats. Also, A OC says that Eric Adams should resign as New York City mayor for the good of the city amid federal probes. you know who they wanna get in, don’t you? And we’re gonna talk about this. Andrew Cuomo is looking at his comeback. So who do you want as mayor of New York City?

4 (17m 37s):
A guy that maybe, is it considered a bribe or was it treatment? don don’t know. Do I care? Maybe, maybe not. But would you rather have that guy in office that took some money from Turkey? Or the guy who killed all your grandparents with his policies? I don’t, I mean, literally killed them. He took his policies, fashioned them into a stake and stabbed your grandparents in the chest like they were Nosferatu, So, I. Don’t know. Like who do you want in office? Andrew Cuomo. Or do you want Eric Adams, the guy who helped create all of the problems that New York is dealing with now? Or Eric Adams, who seems like a less annoying of a Marxist, not maybe all the way a Marxist willing to say some stuff about illegal immigration.

4 (18m 18s):
Did he take money from Turkey? Nah, I, the only thing, the only difference with Eric Adams and all the other New York Democrats is Eric Adams is dumb enough to get caught. That’s literally the only thing. ’cause all these cats have taken this kind of, they’ve taken upgrades, they’ve taken free trips, they’ve taken hotel stays. Literally every single one of them, he just got caught. That’s the reality of it. We’re gonna talk about that coming up. And we’re also gonna get into Kamala Harris and the holistic housing market.

Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. Do you guys, what’s your favorite? Ka What’s your favorite book of the Bible?

11 (21m 38s):
Favorite book of the Bible? Man, that’s a tough one because I do like Psalms. You go back to that one a lot for like

4 (21m 45s):
Peace

11 (21m 45s):
Psalms. Yeah, peace Psalm. Yeah. Piece Psalms, So. I. Think it’d be Psalms. There’s a lot of books there and a lot of things to pull from. Mm

4 (21m 51s):
I I’m partial to Ephesians. Yeah, but what about those Ecclesiastes? Huh? you know the book about the Ecclesiastes people? Oh, oh wait a minute. That’s just, I apparently that’s what Kamala Harris, that’s, she thinks that that’s Old Testament scripture. I’m not kidding. Audio soundbite one.

5 (22m 11s):
You know, there’s a time for patience and there’s a time for impatience that’s not in Ecclesiastes, but, but just want off script for a minute, mayor

4 (22m 24s):
The Ecclesiastes, you know, remember when they got, I feel like I say this a lot. Do you remember when, do you remember when they got mad at Trump for, what did he say? Two Corinthians? Yeah. Is that what he said? It’s not one but two Corinthians, something like that. Right? Or second Timothy said, he said two Timothy I. think I. Think it was two Timothy. Was it? Was it that it was one of ’em? I don’t remember. It was one of ’em. Oh, my gosh. And the left. The left was, can you believe Trump doesn’t know this biblical book? He doesn’t know this book of the Bible. Can you believe it? And they just lost their minds. Well what about the Ecclesiastic people? I mean that’s, it’s, it’s goofy, right?

4 (23m 6s):
And it just goes to show you that she Yeah, it’s, you know, the Ecclesiastes that’s actually sounds like a great theological punk band name. Where they take, it’s like they take the book of Psalms and they turn it into punk songs and their first album is called Punk Psalms. Oh, we’re just writing it right here and there. That’d be great. The last, the

11 (23m 31s):
Last letter is an X in

4 (23m 32s):
The That’s

11 (23m 33s):
Right. It can’t be a cs. That’s right.

4 (23m 35s):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ecclesiastes right? That’s right. Oh. my gosh. That actually would be, how is that not a punk band? Right? That actually would be really great. I can see them opening up. I can see them playing like the Vatican. you know, you like go out there and see Peter. We’re the Ecclesiastes. I can see it, man. I would totally go to that show. Wouldn’t you go to that show? It’s just all Psalms punk style that actually I wanna do it. I mean, I know enough power chords and I can play rhythm guitar poorly enough that I could be a punk. I could be a punk guitarist. Right. I can do it.

11 (24m 12s):
And the next book in the Bible song of Solomon. Right. So

4 (24m 15s):
There it’s, that’s the second album. Yeah,

11 (24m 17s):
That’s what it is. Yeah. A follow up.

4 (24m 19s):
And then in the style of paranoid Android, just have a character. Just have a song called Solomon. It’s Ecclesiastes. Sounds great, doesn’t it? It’s a great, that’s a great idea. I can’t believe no one’s done that yet. So she actually, she didn’t come up with that idea. But anyway,

11 (24m 36s):
It’s like that band Penton or what was the

4 (24m 38s):
Pentatonics? I liked them for like five seconds and then I was like, okay, I’m done with it. I can only take so much. you know, like there’s certain types of music that for five seconds I’m like, this is the greatest. And then it’s too much.

11 (24m 50s):
I revisit during the holidays.

4 (24m 52s):
Really? Yeah. I don’t like, I don’t, no,

11 (24m 54s):
It’s usually in playlists and it pops up.

4 (24m 57s):
I don’t like it here and there. I mean I don’t not, I don’t dislike it. I just, it’s not my jam. I like the old cruisers.

11 (25m 3s):
Yeah, yeah. It’s not my jam, but I’ll run across it. During the holidays

4 (25m 5s):
When we were, when I was a little kid, I have no idea how we got on the subject. When I was a little kid. My mom would, they would put her and my stepdad would have he, because he was, he had a record player. He was one of those people. He was a vinyl is a vinyl person. And he would play all kinds of like old Christmas music on these albums, these vinyl albums. And so And we, and that’s how you decorate the tree and all that stuff. And so now I have to have that music around Christmas. you know what I mean? Ecclesiastes. Yeah. Ecclesiastes. Can you imagine the Ecclesiastes Christmas punk? That’s amazing. Like a way in a manger but punk style.

4 (25m 46s):
That’s so cool. Like, like a really fast drum Oh. my gosh. Like I’m already like imagining it in my head. And guess. And you wouldn’t have to pay royalties ’cause it’s kind of like considered American standard, right? Right. Dude for reels. I can’t believe that hasn’t been done. Trademark copyright.

11 (26m 4s):
I’m gonna work on that right now.

4 (26m 6s):
I’m saying I’ve got guitars. I mean I can play, you know, I can make it, at least one part of it happen. I could play drums poorly enough where I could put those tracks down. Can’t play bass to save my life unless it’s like, you know, three, three chords. That’s about it. But there you go. Where are we going? That’s okay. The cle, you guys would buy that album, I feel like. I feel like you would. Can you imagine Oh? my gosh. And you could, oh I’m just, I I need to stop ’cause I’m like going on and on and on. Alright, So I. Wanna bring the tugboat back to shore here briefly, because Georgia, a new survey came out. It’s not looking so hot for the Harris.

4 (26m 47s):
It’s not, it’s A-C-B-S-U gov poll. you know, CBS, which is the C stands for conservative, you guys remember that, right? The C stands for conservative, so C-C-B-S-U gov poll shows. Now it’s within a margin of error. But I will note something. This was 1,441 registered voters and it has Trump 51 to Harris’ 49. Now margin of error on this was three five was 3.5. But still, why do I cite this? Because the last survey, if you will give me a moment that I saw had had them tied like literally, except it was like 0.5.

4 (27m 34s):
So this survey and indicates, and the last one was likely voters and not registered voters. And, but wasn, I want to say that that survey was like a Rasmussen, I think maybe. No, no, no. It wasn’t a Rasmussen it, that last one was a, I think it was a agar group. So anyway, long story short, I feel like, you know, this one shows like, you know, a a two point gr bit of growth, but it’s not, Georgia’s not certain. And Trump needs to really focus. I think he didn’t he just do an event in Georgia? He needs to focus on Georgia. He needs to, and stick to the hits, stick to the issues that voters care about.

4 (28m 16s):
But Harris is freaking out because what have I, what one of, what’s one of the things that we’ve talked about ever since she picked walls as her second banana, they completely just glossed over Josh Shapiro and almost made it seem like they weren’t making a play for Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania’s electoral votes. Almost like they thought, well, we’re just gonna go straight for Georgia, maybe we’ll get Pennsylvania, maybe we won’t. But it, it, it was really clear that their play was to go for Georgia over Pennsylvania. So it’s kind of interesting. And now like looking at this, how this is, it’s not working out for them that it doesn’t look like their place worked thus far.

4 (29m 3s):
And probably be, and this probably because I mean her messaging’s really bad. Yeah, when they were tied, the last survey was on September 14th when it came out. And that showed them really at like 48. 48. But he, but like he was like 48.5 and she was 48. So you know, there’s, there they were right there. And now it looks like he’s kind of pulling away from her. Just I’m not, it’s not enough to be a trend yet, but it’s enough to keep an eye on, I think. But that’s not, that’s not a good poll for Harris. Not at all. Not a good poll for her. Marist has a survey out for Arizona.

4 (29m 44s):
Trump is plus one again, still within the margin of error. The margin of error is 3.8 points on this. So he’s only plus one. So they’re tied, they’re they’re, they’re tied. It was Harris that she, the last survey that they measured, well, amongst independents, the last survey that they measured amongst independence was Harris 51, Trump 47. And those are only likely voters for independence. And Joe and Biden carried independence by plus nine in that state four years ago. So these are kind of already, you know, left-leaning independence. Now it’s, they’re still leaning towards Harris, but less so. So, but these are likely voters, not registered voters.

4 (30m 28s):
So 50 to 49 with this latest marris poll from Arizona. and I was looking at the cross tabs for this one. And like I said, 3.8 margin of error. I mean there, this is not a huge lead for him with this survey, but it looks like they’re tied and they looked at 1,264 people that they surveyed and they conducted that through September 19th and 24th. And they, they also used text and landline for this too. So they’ve got 11 electoral votes for Arizona. And very interesting how the independence, they’re not as supportive of Harris as they were Biden, which they have the same policies.

4 (31m 8s):
I mean, she’s literally the same person, just a woman. Now this is the same person, it’s the same. I mean, this is why you have to vote for the set of policies that they’re looking to advance and not the person or personality if that’s like an issue for people. But man alive, it’s, it’s close. I wanted to hit Coca-Cola. Do you guys hear about Coca-Cola? Do you hear about this? don? Don’t drink Coca-Cola because I’m a Pepsi drinker. So apparently there was a dude on Facebook who was at a machine in a Coca-Cola store where you can personalize the, like you can write your name on the Coke can or write something on the Coke can, and it personalizes it in the machine, which is actually kind of neat.

4 (31m 50s):
And he was able to write Allah and Buddha and Satan, but he couldn’t write Jesus. And when he tried to write Jesus, it said, sadly, we cannot automatically allow this text on the can. If you feel it’s a mistake, please, please speak to a state rep now. And then there were other people saying that you can write, you know, other political names, but you couldn’t write where you kane’s grinning. Like you couldn’t write Trump or do something like that. Right? Well, yeah. Or

11 (32m 19s):
Yeah, Jesus and all that. See, here’s my problem with it is that there are, I I have friends named Jesus.

4 (32m 25s):
Yeah, Jesus is an actual name. Yeah.

11 (32m 27s):
Like why they can’t even get that on the cut. Everyone

4 (32m 30s):
Else can. I feel that’s, I feel like that’s anti-immigrant.

11 (32m 33s):
It it definitely is anti i

4 (32m 35s):
Anti-immigrant. Thank jingoistic.

11 (32m 37s):
Yeah. Thank you for bringing light

4 (32m 38s):
Together. You’re welcome. It’s in whatever other ing, egoistic isms that they wanna add to it to not allow Jesus to be on it. Apparently though, too, you can’t write like Trump 24 on it. That’s dumb. Yeah, I don’t know. they said that they’ve ban any monikers that are trademarked political in nature, names of countries, celebrities, religious figures, as well as anything that could be considered offensive for other reasons. And now it’s stupid. See now it’s, they tried to be so PC that it’s dumb. Now you can’t write. But I think you could, it allows Elon Musk’s name and it allows I think a couple of other names.

4 (33m 18s):
I think it allowed Harris, but it didn’t allow Trump. So some people are saying that is it’s woke. Is it? It might be. Do I, can I be real? Do I care? I don’t think so. If

11 (33m 30s):
Woke equals fascist, then yes, that would be correct.

4 (33m 34s):
I just think that some people, I don’t even know why some people continue to choose life for themselves. If you’re so miserable that you’re offended by a name on a Coke can, how are you alive? Like, how are you living? And you’re just not offended to like actually into the grave? How, how? Right? How, how are you here? I don’t get those people right. They’re offended by everything. Everything. How in the hell are you alive?

13 (34m 4s):
I’m

4 (34m 4s):
So offended. They’re the people who are mad over butter and pancakes, syrup, and names on

13 (34m 8s):
Soda. What? We can’t have trump on a can of soda. That’s bad. What is

4 (34m 17s):
Your damage? What is wrong with these people? Do you know? I I I’m not political all the time. I do turn it off. I happen to believe certain things and I am a certain way and it’s just how I am. But I don’t always talk about politics. and I don’t always, you know, look for political fights and everything. And one of the things that makes me so mad is that when I try to walk away from it, somebody out there in meet space, a leftist is always trying to like, make it a reality. Make it a real thing. you know, like we got a story coming up where this kid got in trouble at his school because he made a gun out of soda cans. But no, he didn’t like actually fashion a fire like a gun that can be fired from soda cans.

4 (34m 59s):
He laid out, literally laid out what I’m assuming are full cans of Dr. Pepper on a bed in the shape of a rifle. Meaning that it looked like a lowercase k That’s it. And he posted it on TikTok and he’s 13 years old. He does what? 13 years old? What 13 year olds do, posted on TikTok. And someone at his school got offended and they suspended this kid. Not only did they suspend him, but he’s got two marks on his permanent record. One is for cyber bullying and I can’t. And he, he got a si like someone was offended by a picture that they saw. And so that amounts to cyber bullying somehow.

4 (35m 42s):
And that’s a permanent, that’s a permanent mark on his record. So that’s one, one of the marks he got. And the other one was making a school threat. Even though he never made any threats. That’s the thing. He never made any threats to anybody, to any school, to any person, nothing. No bullying took place. We’re gonna talk about this coming up. It’s wild. Our partners over at Byrna a gun, B-Y-R-N-A, if you, it’s always good to have options for self-defense.

I always advocate for people to carry and I have zero problem myself in using lethal force to protect myself or protect my loved ones.

I think it’s whenever Democrats act like they’re cleaning house, they’re not really cleaning house because they feel like someone breached their code of ethics because they don’t have any, their code of ethics consists of stepping outside of the narrative.

4 (40m 11s):
And when you criticize your narrative masters, they come at you. And that’s, I think, honestly what’s happening now. Did he make it easier by doing some of this stuff? But what is it? Maybe not.

Welcome to the program. Dana Lash here with you. Top of this second hour. And you can watch the simulcast of the program over at Channel 3 47 Direct tv. You can also find us on x on Rumble, where the discussion happens. And on Substack chapter and verse is the name of my official newsletter. you can go and subscribe. Always new stuff out on the reg. Got something I always send, try to send out something that’s, I’ve been trying to make more of an effort to send something out at least once a week. That’s totally nonpolitical. And we usually do like a, a culture post that’s strictly just about stuff that I’m watching, reading, playing, listening to.

4 (43m 13s):
And so we cover all of that. So you got New Mozart, you got new Mel Gibson, you got the South Korean Beatles. Yeah. You got all yeah. Be, yeah. Tulsa King, new Season, new Cure album, all that, all that listed in it. So yeah, I know lots of good stuff happening right? South Korean Beatles. Well, because, you know, ’cause I’m, hang on, I’m gonna get to the meat and potatoes in a minute. ’cause I love Japanese punk and I. Like what? Like South Korea’s like, been doing a lot of experimentation with like, you know, fifties, sixties type sounds and the, it’s a really interesting band. This group that I’ve got linked that’ll come that’s, that is sending out with us.

4 (43m 53s):
So it’s really good. and I also linked to one of my favorite Japanese rockabilly artists too. So it’s weird, but it’s fun. you know, you need a break, you need a, you know, pallet cleanser. Alright, so as we roll, got a few things I gotta tell you. Like when the Eric Adams stuff hit, I’m not an Eric Adams fan, but I’m not an Eric Adams hater. I’m ambivalent. Like truly I am. I am ambivalent about it. He’s charged with bribery and wire fraud and I was listening to the, to the charges on this. And he, you know, frankly kind of, it just don don’t know it just, he’s a Democrat.

4 (44m 36s):
I’m like, I expect Democrats to do this stuff. I mean, honestly, if I’m being real, I expect politicians in general just to be, I just think when you’re in office for a certain amount of time, you’re weird. Nobody, you have to be weird to be in office that long. Yeah, I, I hate it. I would hate it. Think about it. and I know there’s some people who go with the best of intentions, right? But I think when they get there, something changes them. Like they become infected like a virus. I don’t know what it is. And, and then they just like seek out this, these accolades and they seek it out. And it’s like they get, I fame can be addicting and so can praise.

4 (45m 18s):
Praise is a hor can be a horrible drug for us. Not for the Lord, but for us humans. It could be a horrible drug. and I think some people, if they do one thing right, they get addicted to the praise and then they constantly seek accolades and then that turns them into like, shadows of their former selves and then they become grifters. don don’t know. Maybe I’m just very, very cynical. Deservedly so. It’s an earned cynicism. But I can’t imagine anyone that would want to be in office for as long as some of these cats are in office for or want to be in government for as long as some of these people are in government for, you know, the amount of ring kissing and buck kissing you have to do in order to be in it that long. I can’t stand to go to more than one.

4 (45m 60s):
Like, you know, the Christmas season when it comes around, I can, I can’t stand to go to more than like one or two Christmas parties a season because I just get, I am a situational extrovert. It’s one thing to be on a stage in front of tons of people or behind a mic. But when it gets to those one-on-one things I can’t hang, it’s, I’m as awkward as get out and just drains my energy. I can’t, I mean, if you’ve ever met me in a small setting, you’re gonna be like, she, how is she? She’s so weird. She’s the most awkward person we’ve ever met. And it’s a bit much, no, it’s totally accurate. Oh, and I and I have no filter. And So I immediately will say things like, So I. Guess we’re supposed to talk about the weather because I don’t know you.

4 (46m 41s):
I mean, I just, you know, and what else are you gonna say? It’s weird. I can’t stand when, when things are awkward. So I’m like, if it’s gonna be awkward, let it at least be awkward for a reason. Right? Like, let’s, let’s introduce something to really feel awkward about in this setting. So I just don don’t know how they do it. I, I’ve been to the, you know, I’ve been to the capitol, I’ve been, I’ve seen lawmakers and everything that they have to do. and I just don don’t know. I, there’s, I something’s wrong with them. I just have no, they’re different. I don’t think they’re human. When you stay in, I think if you’re in office for like 15 years, you officially cease to be a human.

4 (47m 22s):
You are an alien, you’re a martian. don don’t know what’s wrong. ’cause who wants to be there for that long? And you gotta be in DC you gotta be in DC And DC can be pretty if you’re a visitor for a short period of time. But when you have to live there, it’s a different story. Right? Totally different story. The first time I took it was the first, maybe it was the second time I took one of my kids to DC with me when I was doing one of the Sunday morning shows and I went in Saturday night and we get to our hotel and it was in the nice part of DC you know, is there one and I mean there were just, we when we drove around the corner to go to our air to go to our hotel. And it was, you know, right not, I mean not far from the capitol at all or the White House at all.

4 (48m 4s):
Go around the corner and there were all these people in the street and I, my my kids have seen homelessness before, but it’s off the chain in places like New York and DC and la like it is a whole different kind, a whole different level. Like you think you’ve seen homelessness, but not until you’ve seen people like tent cities on the sidewalk where you couldn’t even walk on the sidewalk. Like you actually have to walk into the road. ’cause there’s so many people on the sidewalk and the cops are just like, we can’t deal with it. It’s too much. When we turn the corner. It was like that, like just a block away from the hotel that we were at. And I’m like, well this is, this is what Democrats do. This is welcome to Democrat policies in action.

4 (48m 45s):
And it’s true. There’s nothing about anything that I’ve just said right there. That’s a lie. I’m not lying to my kid. It’s true. But it was wild to see these policies and I’m like, these are the people who’ve been here all this. He’s like, I they know they’re here, right? And I’m like, yeah, they know they’re here. He’s like, but they’re just right down there. and I’m like, yeah, they are. They’re, and they’ve been there for forever. They just, they become immune to everything. They, they, they, they just stay in that bubble. It’s weird. I think they’re weird. I mean, I’m not trying to sound mean, but I think it is mean when you, that’s why I think the voter is the term limit. don don’t like term limits because as much as they think it’s weird that people are in office for that long, I don’t want the government to take anything, any other decision making ability away from me.

4 (49m 26s):
No. You don’t get to determine how long someone stays in office. I agree with Hamilton and Adams and all of the other founders who were writing in the Federalist papers against government and post-term limits. Those are the people on whose side I come down and I. That’s our, that is up to our discretion. So, you know, that’s why we gotta be smart about it. ’cause we ultimately decide this. Anyway, my whole point in that is that I think Eric Adams is a product of his Democrat environment. He’s a product of Democrat politics. He’s a problem of a product of the Democrat party. He is a product of New York. Are you telling me that all of these other people who have occupied, you know, his honors office, that they’ve never engaged in anything because I don’t believe it.

4 (50m 10s):
He was just dumb enough or lackadaisical enough about hiding it that he just got caught. He just got caught. So what is it they were saying that he didn’t disclose all this stuff and that it amounted to influencing and we don’t want any influence in influences from foreign entities. Oh, unless you’re Hillary Clinton and you’re working with the, the Kremlin and a British spy to launder stories through the press and then merch them out so that then you can take the published stories that are predicated upon debunked oppo and then secure through an unlawful process, a surveillance warrant on an Innocent American because he has wrong think. Okay.

17 (50m 46s):
Or Hunter and

4 (50m 47s):
Joe Biden. Yeah. Or Hunter and Joe Biden. you know, I mean, come on, they’re But they’re special Hurricane. Oh, they’re special. They’re the specialists. D different D different. That is correct sir. It’s d different. But he’s a product of that whole environment. and I think the reason why they’re mad at him now is because of what he was saying about immigration. Right. The stuff that he had said about immigration before it does seem, you know, seems a little weird that he comes out, he’d said in 23 that, what did he say? That that, you know, it’s a never ending problem.

4 (51m 27s):
The issue that they’re all dealing with, with the deluge of illegal immigration. That it’s a never ending problem. Huh. And then immediately they started investigating him after that So don don’t know, I just feel like he had said quote, this issue will destroy New York City. He said that in September of last year, he said that it was being destroyed by the influx of 110,000 asylum seekers. This is New York Times from the southern border. He didn’t see a way to fix the issue. He said, let me tell you something, new Yorkers never in my life had a, and there’s video of this. Never in my life have I had a problem that I did not see an ending to. I don’t see an ending to this. It’ll destroy New York City the moment he says this.

4 (52m 8s):
Literally. Then in November then they started, they opened a major federal corruption investigation into his fundraising. And they were, they’re accusing him of receiving illegal donations from the Turkish government, which is tantamount to conspiring with the Turkish government Right after he says this audio soundbite 16. Now this was, this was September of 23. After, I mean a month and a half after he says this, then a federal investigation is opened into him. Listen,

18 (52m 41s):
I have been fighting injustice my entire life. That fight has continued as your mayor, despite our police, when the federal government did nothing. Well, he says

4 (52m 53s):
He is being targeted

18 (52m 54s):
Immigration policies, overloaded our shelter system with no relief. I put the people of New York before party and politics.

4 (53m 3s):
So he had, he was, and this was in September. This was just the, this was actually today the, the video where he made the statement that the New York Times quoted him as saying he was speaking at an outdoor event in September of last year. And that’s when he made those claims. And then right after that, right after that, the investigation was opened. So, I mean, I think it’s a bit of both. I think he did, he did he probably like take, because when I was, when you read the indictment, he was taking like one of the, for instance, when he flew, I, I can’t remember where he was flying. He flew somewhere and he flew through Turkey, and he got upgraded business class and, but wasn like an $8,000 upgrade. And then another one was like a $12,000 upgrade, and then he didn’t disclose it.

4 (53m 48s):
And they’re saying that, that that should have been disclosed and it’s illegal that it wasn’t. And as a result, you know, you’re, it, it, it could be considered for an influence. And then there were, when he would go and stay at different, like he stayed at the St. Regis I think when he didn’t he go to assemble or something? He stayed in St. Regis and, but wasn, you know, super swanky. It’s a super swanky hotel and apparently, but wasn comped for him. And he also got like an upgrade there and it was comped for him and all this stuff very, you know, expensive and he didn’t disclose it. and there’s other things, I mean, it’s not like, you know, he was selling access to the mayor oral office, really, you know, in exchange for blood diamonds or don don’t know stock in the Chinese company, but wasn taking over a giant cobalt mine in the Dominican Republic, or not Dominican, the people’s Democratic Republic of Congo, the way Hunter Biden did.

4 (54m 42s):
But hey, it’s D different, right? Yeah. And actually it’s Hunter Biden. If you wanna have a discussion of race, I think you could probably justifiably propose one there. But you know what, if just saying so he was getting heckled when he was given. I just don’t care. I mean, I, I, it’s the Democrat’s problem. Let them deal with it. I just think it’s funny. and I think Republicans should hammer at home that the moment that he started talking about immigration, that’s when Democrats decided he was a liability. All of a sudden they discovered that they don’t like foreign influence, but they love it all the other times that it doesn’t prove to be disadvantageous for them. You can’t have a Democrat out there causing waves on immigration in an election cycle. That’s what this is. So they’re trying to fix it.

4 (55m 22s):
They’re trying to fix it by taking him out. Just saying, we got more on the way. Oh, and also we’re gonna talk about, you know, who’s I in that position? you know, who wants to be the mayor? Don’t call it a comeback. He’s been here for years. Andrew Cuomo. Whoa. The guy who killed all y’all grandparents in New York. We’re gonna talk about that coming up. Also, Biden’s unveiling a new anti-gun executive order. We’ll talk about all of that and more coming up as we move.

And also we, we were playing on Kamala Harris’s, Eccle, Ecclesiastes Blunder Blunder. and I had an idea for a theological punk band that covers Psalms. Right, right. And so Kane ran it through AI and it’s actually, it’s not bad. Give it a You got it, we got it up. Yeah.

Declare the decre. Lord,

11 (1h 4m 11s):
That’s nice.

4 (1h 4m 12s):
It’s actually, it’s actually not bad, dude. It’s actually not bad.

11 (1h 4m 15s):
I’m in, I didn’t think AI could do

4 (1h 4m 17s):
This. I didn’t either. I really wanted to hate it. I wanted to hate it so bad. I was always prejudiced against it. I am, I am technologically prejudiced. And So I was already prejudiced against it. And it, it actually is, is not bad. It’s actually pretty good. I’m not gonna lie. That’s, and

11 (1h 4m 37s):
Apparently AI improves itself. Like when you, you sort of edit the type of style, like remember we had first iterations of these songs and they were more like, like Irish punk sort of

4 (1h 4m 48s):
Drop kick Murphy ish. Yeah. It was like, it was like you had a bunch of people in an Irish pub who decided to set down their Guinness and then knock out a banner. Right. That’s what it, you know, and then this sound

11 (1h 4m 55s):
Like that. Then it sort of morphed into what we are hearing now. and I think there’s even more generations. It

4 (1h 4m 60s):
Sounded almost, it got into shanty territory. It did just a wee bit.

11 (1h 5m 5s):
It did. The Ecclesiastes,

4 (1h 5m 8s):
The Ecclesiastes. I, I like, I would see them, I would go to a dive bar where there’s probably not doors on the stalls in the women’s room. I would go there and watch that band. Absolutely. Yeah. So I mean we could do it. We, I mean, we were talking about how, I mean, I play instruments. I can play rhythm guitar poorly. I can play drums. Yeah. I could, you know, knock out something crude and you know, you know, could like, like a opening act at a dive bar. I could do that. But, you know, we ran it through AI for the purpose of time and it’s actually not bad. Not bad at all. Yeah,

8 (1h 5m 38s):
I’ve heard worse.

4 (1h 5m 40s):
I mean, and I love it even more because it’s ours. Yeah. So I. Don’t know. I feel like Yeah, that’s, that’s what I, I I I love it. I Can you play it again? Will you play it again please? I really like this song. It’s the Ecclesiastes, our theological punk band

20 (1h 5m 57s):
Declare decree. The Lord said,

4 (1h 6m 12s):
They just say things like

20 (1h 6m 13s):
These

4 (1h 6m 14s):
In a punkish context.

20 (1h 6m 16s):
It’s cooler.

4 (1h 6m 20s):
It’s actually not bad. It’s not bad. It’s a little bit, a little bit upbeat for me, but

20 (1h 6m 26s):
Therefore,

4 (1h 6m 28s):
Oh, it’s so good, dude. I would So I would so see them. It’s a jam man. That’s a jam. Not bad. Hey Steve,

8 (1h 6m 36s):
What’s up?

4 (1h 6m 37s):
Does that slap

8 (1h 6m 39s):
It does sound like a sea shanty a little bit though.

4 (1h 6m 42s):
See? Yeah, it did. It is a little sea shanty ish. Although

8 (1h 6m 45s):
When we were talking about Ecclesiastic So, I thought it sounded, that sounded like a something You majored in college, you know.

4 (1h 6m 51s):
Well, I mean, yes and no, but, but so Kamala Harris was trying, can we play her thing, her thing real quick? It’s real short. She was trying, don don’t know what she was trying to say. Ecclesiastes. And she got the name of the, she got the book wrong. Listen,

5 (1h 7m 4s):
You know, there’s a time for patience and there’s a timeframe impatience that’s not in Ecclesiastes, but, but

4 (1h 7m 12s):
Yes, that’s right. Ecclesiastes. Yeah. She knows Kamala Harris just referenced our punk band. Right? That’s right. So thanks Kamala. Yeah, thanks Kamala. I actually now, I mean it’s, I I I’m, I’m gonna actually take this to the nth degree because I’m really, I I actually like it. Alright. So in the spirit of punk bands, it’s like the most awkward segue ever in the spirit of punk bands. Have you ever heard of a Suic have suicide pod? It’s not a punk band. Actually, it’s a way to die. Like an actual way to die. This is, I think these things are terrifying.

4 (1h 7m 52s):
So the BBC, the British Broadcasting Company has a story of how police in Switzerland made multiple arrests after a woman reportedly ended her life using a So-called suicide pod, which almost sounds like an nx s song, but that’s blonde. It’s apparently the first case of its kind. Okay, so here’s where it gets super weird for me. I am fascinated by this story, and here’s why. When you think of suicide pod and like going to Merck yourself in a pod, I just think that I’m going into this like matrix type of environment where they have got them all lined up and you go lay and you, you press a button and it ha it like squirts gas in there.

4 (1h 8m 35s):
So this lady, she apparently had like, I guess a, a, a degenerative disease or something like that. And she had been sick for a long time. and I, I, no, I’m not in support of euthanasia. She had been sick for a long time and the, I guess she wanted to go into the suicide pod. So she’s 64 years old. She uses, she’s an American woman. And so she goes to this place out in the woods in northern Switzerland. So instead of going into this like matrix type environment, she’s literally out into the woods. They had this pod out in the forest and the maker of the Sarco suicide pod, they said that they wanted her to go under a canopy of trees.

4 (1h 9m 25s):
It was, it, it’s designed to allow a person inside to push a button and inject nitrogen gas into the sealed chamber. And then they fall asleep and then suffocate to death in a matter of minutes. So, and if you thought, if you wanted to know if the guy who made it looks nuts, he does, he, the guy who in who invented it is, you know, it, it looks nuts. So she’s out, you know, in the woods in Switzerland, in this space pod, and they put it out in the woods. So she gets in to the space pod or the, the, the suicide pod. And they said she pressed the button almost immediately. And it took like five minutes. I, they said that, you know, they could see her, she, they could tell when she went unconscious and her muscles were twitching.

4 (1h 10m 8s):
And then that said, the police showed up and they found a woman’s body in the pot. So I got a lot of questions also now too. Like, did they leave her there? Like how did that work? I mean, don’t you get it out? And, and also I know this is, this is how my mind works. Please don’t judge me. But you know what, the first thing I thought of when I saw it, there was a picture of it online and like, it’s o you know, it showed it open and it showed the guy invented it getting into it a

6 (1h 10m 33s):
Tanning bed.

4 (1h 10m 34s):
It does actually look like, it looks like an old tanning bed. Yes. But when you get in there just saying, not that I supported or ever would you have to know that it’s been used before. Ew. Is that weird?

6 (1h 10m 48s):
Well, you’re dying, so what?

4 (1h 10m 50s):
Yeah, but it’s weird though, right?

11 (1h 10m 53s):
Yeah. I guess if you’re,

4 (1h 10m 54s):
I mean, it’s weird that you’re going into a pod to die, but

11 (1h 10m 57s):
I think the mindset of people who are wanting to do this, they’re least concerned. They’re, the concern at the bottom of their list of concerns would be that someone else died there.

4 (1h 11m 8s):
Because I would be like, did someone crack their pants in here? No. No. Like, did they mess themselves in here? Like, you know, ’cause they’re bo like, when the body goes, you lose control of those functions, right? That’s true. So it’s like, ooh, was it icky? Like who had to clean that up? Did they clean it? Well, because can you, you’re in the pod and you’re pressing the button. Not that I would ever do this or suggest that you do this, it’s horrible. But what if you notice like some gunk in it, like, oh, they didn’t get this spot and then you’re dead. That sucks. That’s a horrible way to go. I don’t

11 (1h 11m 36s):
Think people are gonna be concerned with that.

4 (1h 11m 38s):
Honestly. That’s totally what I would be. I’m like,

11 (1h 11m 40s):
I’m getting in there to die. The fact that it might have a little gunk in there is probably gonna gonna be, you’re

4 (1h 11m 45s):
Getting into like a nasty like hobo pod. That’s gross. This So I mean that’s not what this, you’re getting getting in the pod to murk yourself. But shouldn’t it be a clean going? you know, it’s so weird. I mean, I feel bad for the lady who thought she had no other choice and it, and they, and they said that they put it out in the woods so she could look at the trees in the sky. I, or because it’s easier to hose it off. I don Dunno, just, oh man, it’s so weird. She, she cashed out her life savings and flew to Switzerland to do this. I and I don’t know. And it’s, it’s weird.

4 (1h 12m 27s):
This whole thing is weird. And now there’s like accusations towards the group Of course. It’s called The Last Resort. Who they said that they, that they wanted to, they spent her money and wanted it to be, they told her she would need it after she was dead. And they said that her family saying that they took advantage of her, that would, that’s one of the accusations. But the, the, the po this is just all so weird. It’s just so weird. And they said that when you get in it, it, it has a little voice that, that says quote, if you want to die, press this button. No. Yeah. A ajas France press gotta look at it.

4 (1h 13m 7s):
And that’s what it says. If you want to die, press this button. Is

11 (1h 13m 10s):
There another button that you just last minute decided you wanna live, that you press?

4 (1h 13m 15s):
Is the cleanliness not up to your standard press this button? Is the

11 (1h 13m 19s):
Lid locked until you decide to die? Or is it

4 (1h 13m 22s):
Yeah, I don’t, yeah, I guess it seals you up in there. Good lord. Ooh, it’s just so weird. Like you, you’re don don’t know, but it does also sound like a punk band suicide pod opening for the Ecclesiastes one disapproves of the other. Hmm. don don’t know. Steve says it looks like a bad transformer emphasis on trans, what? It does look like a bad, like seventies transformer. you know, it looks like a pager. A giant pager that’s out in the woods, right?

11 (1h 13m 55s):
A giant flip

4 (1h 13m 55s):
Phone. Be careful because if it’s from Taiwan and a Israeli company out there could blow up just saying, just saying, I’ve got, I just, I am fascinated by this thing. But that’s what it says to you. Like when you get in, like, press this button if you want to die, it’s a 3D printed capsule and you get in it and you press the button and that’s it. That’s horrible. That’s just so bad. I mean, and this woman was 60. She’s young, right? You you’re telling me she couldn’t get any other, you know, don don’t know. I, I, it’s just the whole thing is weird to me. But the, the, they’re trying to call it the Tesla of euthanasia.

4 (1h 14m 36s):
What a disregard for life, right? This is like mass produced life ending. This is horrible. And it’s outta Switzerland. Can I also say, you know, and I love the Swiss, but man this are some pretty weird Nordic ideas up there. Let’s just create a pod that’ll mur you like that in minutes and then they’ll have a whole line of them up. It’s weird, although like some of the best horror movies come from up there just saying,

11 (1h 15m 1s):
I was reading too, like they don’t say how they dispose of the body, do they? No. So they

4 (1h 15m 7s):
Does it

11 (1h 15m 8s):
Like, open the lid and hope for wolves? Like what do they

4 (1h 15m 11s):
They open the lid and they do hope for wolves. Okay. No, I mean, I, I don’t know if all of them are like out in nature, but I’m just, I’m, I’m a little curious because it looks like it could lean up and just dump you out. What if it does that? What if it like, rehas your dead body out of the pod? Well, look, if you’re murking yourself in a pod, let’s just drop all pretense of, you know, taste here. You’re, you’re murking yourself in a pod. Nobody should be offended if I’m like, does it reha your dead carcass out of it? I mean, it, it’s hor it’s all

11 (1h 15m 45s):
Horrible. Would it surprise you to find out there are people lined up to do this? That there is a line of

4 (1h 15m 49s):
People that makes me sad. That there are people that are lined

11 (1h 15m 52s):
Up to do this on. There’s a waiting list to do

4 (1h 15m 54s):
This. Are you serious?

11 (1h 15m 55s):
120 people. Apparently there are some 120 applicants hoping to use the machine to end their lives according to the last resort.

4 (1h 16m 5s):
That’s so sad to me. I feel like the guy who’s doing this, who created this whole thing is, I, I just think that it’s exploitative and you’re preying upon people at like a horrible time in their lives. I agree. And then I I, and it makes me feel sad that these people don’t have a support network. I mean, the pot is ludicrous, but it, you know, it doesn’t distract from just the sadness that I feel for people who feel like they gotta do this. It’s just, ugh. Ugh. Goodness. Why does the guy who they call Dr. Death, he’s this Australian euthanasia advocate. Why do these people always look like freaks? I know they always look like freaks. Do they not?

11 (1h 16m 40s):
Wasn’t it kevorkian for us? In, in Michigan? Yeah, Michigan I think or something.

4 (1h 16m 44s):
They always look like, like, you know, they are the villains. You immediately know, oh, that’s the bad guy. ’cause he looks like the bad guy. He’s a just, they just, you know, they got a look. All right, we got more on the way. Sweet. So weird segment.

It’s his life mission to make bad decisions. It’s time for Florida, man.

4 (1h 18m 8s):
Can I do, man, if I were to come into any with, into this with beside the Florida man thing with any song, I think it’d be jukebox Hero maybe. No. Did you guys hear about this, this Flo? So these dudes got into a fight over the jukebox, what was playing on a jukebox. And this dude ended up getting shot. So a Florida man was shot dead after he got into a a, a dispute over a jukebox song. And it was at a Mexican restaurant. and I love how they’re like, it turned violent. It was in Fort Lauderdale early Monday morning. It was an argument over a jukebox song. And the dispute began. The dispute began at this restaurant when one man began commenting on another person’s music selection, according to authorities said Maro Bunia.

4 (1h 18m 57s):
He said to WSV and tv. I heard there was two guys and they got into an argument ’cause he sounds like he’s from Jersey. ’cause one of them played a song in the jukebox and the other guy was kind of ticked off. And he goes, the guy who got insulted pulled his weapon and started shooting the other guy. They actually wrote it phonetically as he said it. they said the guy drew his weapon first and the other. So one of them played a song on the machine and the other guy was mad and said, you’re not a real Mexican if you play that bur music is what he said. Which then made me stop and go, well, how can, what is not real Mexican then? Like, if, if he played, what did he play that he got accused of not being a real Mexican, right? Dark

The other guy was taken into custody and man, they had just, out of all the stories, a Florida man wearing an ankle monitor tried kidnapping attempts at kidnapping in a Walmart parking lot, spotted when legs were flailing out the truck. According to the affidavit, the Juan Marcos Perez, he tried to kidnap a woman in Orlando and he had an ankle monitor on, and it was 4:30 PM Monday. And he tried to put her in the trunk of the car and he was threatening to kill her.

4 (1h 20m 35s):
And witnesses said that she watched, she turned and looked as the victim’s legs were flailing outta the trunk. They did get him. They saved the woman and they got her. He’s going to court now. Obviously. He’s in, he’s in prison. Third hour on the way. Stay with us.

Welcome back to the program ladies and gentlemen. Dana Lash here with you at the top of our third hour, this broadcast Thursday. and there is a new executive order out, a new executive order that targets machine guns and 3D printed, 3D printed firearms, uns, serialized firearms, all which are already regulated by the federal government. Now this was announced just a little bit ago, the, these executive orders, it was announced last, actually Monday, I think that they were gonna put forward more executive orders on guns.

4 (1h 22m 32s):
And so you kind of knew we, I mean we really didn’t have an idea as to what, what they were going into, but it looks like, so they, they’re looking at, they have the, and I’ll write, I’m gonna write about this more over at Substack chapter and verse my newsletter, because it gets into a couple of things. Specifically the, it gets into drills. Like for instance, they said that they’re, he’s gonna have the Surgeon general and the secretaries of education and health and human services to develop and publish guidance for schools on how to conduct shooting drills and minimize, you know what they said?

4 (1h 23m 15s):
Try to, I, I mean they’re gonna do these, they’re gonna do drills and minimize unnecessary trauma, which that’s not, I mean, this is not an issue that I have with people. I, I hope they bring in like professionals to do these if they’re gonna do something like this. Because I don’t have a lot of faith in some of these institutions to discern what is a threat and what isn’t a threat. and I have a story that highlights that coming up. It, yeah, I mean we had tornado drills and that doesn’t, you just sit there like what? I mean, what do you mean?

4 (1h 23m 56s):
What kind of drills? I just feel like that’s not the right way to go. I mean, define, do whatever you have to do. I mean, have drills, have the locking doors, whatever. But when you’re not actually looking at the problem and ignoring it, like for instance, Parkland, Parkland can do a million different drills all they want to. But the problem was that there was clearly a threat. They, they all, all law enforcement knew it. The superintendent of the schools knew it. The teachers knew it. I talked to back when it happened, I talked to a teacher off the record who did not want her identity disclosed. And she was not the only teacher I spoke with at Parkland, either at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas. I talked to several educators and I talked to some people who work in administration.

4 (1h 24m 40s):
They all knew who this kid was, even though it’s a larger system. This, that killer was so bad. And he was so violent leading up to what happened. They all knew who he was. He had to have a mind that went to school with him. And they, he had been in trouble law enforcement. They, they were bragging about reducing the school to prison pipeline and much in the same way that they’re trying to pretend that the crime rate has gone down. It’s not that the crime rate has gone down. And it’s not that they did, it’s not that they actually reduced students getting in trouble with the law. It’s just that they literally stopped reporting it. And that killer in Parkland was one of the people whose crimes, they just stopped reporting.

4 (1h 25m 22s):
And I’m not talking about little misdemeanor stuff. I mean, there was like serious like felonious activity happening. I mean this, this killer previously already held a gun to a student’s head. He had knocked his own mother’s teeth out of her mouth. He was already threatening to kill students. He had been doing it, this was like months and months leading up to this, this tragedy. They had police go out to his house dozens of times and he had his, like this murderer’s own family was calling law enforcement. Robert Runcie knew about it. That bad cop sheriff knew about it as well. But see, they were trying to put on this front, well we gotta reduce, we have to make it look like we’re actually having an impact in reducing calls to law enforcement on, you know, from student body and all this.

4 (1h 26m 7s):
And they, Robert Ruey got an award from Arne Duncan who was at the time the head of Department of Education under Barack Obama. They gave Robert Ruey this big award because he had at least visibly reduced the school to prison pipeline that the number of criminal actions reported to law enforcement. And it wasn’t because they had rehabilitated the behavior of the student party. It was because they stopped reporting it. That’s not me saying it, it’s parents there saying it, it’s the teacher saying it. And it’s the official conclusion of the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas Commission that put that in a report. You, you can do drills all you want to when you are not accurately assessing and doing something to mitigate threats.

4 (1h 26m 53s):
I mean drills. And when you’re leaving your doors unlocked, doing all this other stuff and then not, I mean not doing anything about this, this killer who actually could have been adjudicated unfit. So he could have never really, never have gotten a firearm. And he probably could have been committed too, but nobody, law enforcement didn’t do anything. And they just, they, they, I mean the FBI was aware. I mean that’s how bad it was. So that’s, I I I don’t know, they don’t do anything to address that. There’s nothing in here that I’ve, and I’ve g glanced at it so far. I haven’t read all of it all the way, but I’ve been, glancing and I haven’t seen anything yet that addresses it beyond they wanted talk about drills.

4 (1h 27m 33s):
Right, okay. I mean, you’re doesn’t doing a drill by itself kind of create trauma because they said, oh, we wanna minimize unnecessary trauma. Well, doing a drill when you won’t do anything else to protect students, does that, I mean, that just seems like you’re introducing trauma because, and then you’re also trying to convince them that something that is statistically super rare is an inevitable reality. And that is also traumatic. You’re, you’re conditioning them to think that and it’s, you know, one mass casualty incident as a school is one too many. But these are rare occurrences. And it seems like you’re, you’re trying to condition kids into thinking that it is an inevitable occurrence.

4 (1h 28m 18s):
When it is a rare thing. Then they look at machine, like the machine, machine conversion devices by the way, the whole report that they’re doing. ’cause they have their task force that’s looking at, at machine guns and the conver the conversion devices, whatever. That’s, that report is not even gonna be submitted until post-election. Like you’re like three months after the election is when that report’s not even due. And the ability to put a switch on for the, just put it in layman’s terms, put a switch on a gun and make it full auto is already regulated. That’s, that’s a, that’s it’s illegal. It’s already regulated.

4 (1h 28m 59s):
So I don’t know how you make that illegal or with their, it feels like they wanna, it feels like they’re blaming Glock. They hate Glock. Glock is a Austrian company. They don’t like Glock and I feel like they want them to maybe change how they make their firearms. So that, I don’t know. It’s what it feels like. It feels like they’re just weird. I mean, if their argument is gonna be that well anything can be converted and because anything could be converted, then we will just ban all the things. It seems like a move in that direction. Of course. It really does. But then I mean that, that’s, if, if the argument is well anything can be a machine gun, then we’ll ban all of it. That also is a very interesting argument as it relates to law enforcement too.

4 (1h 29m 41s):
But that’s a whole other discussion. So this is don don’t know, it’s, it, it looks kind of nonsensical. They are talking about the, they address the emerging threat of firearm without serial numbers also refer to as ghost guns. Well, you to be able to, you can’t sell firearms without there being a serial number on it. That’s also regulated number one. Number two, there isn’t, there’s not evidence to support that. This idea of uns serialized or what they’re trying to say is privately made by hobbyists. But they don’t wanna get into the weeds on that. They want you to think that there’s an epidemic of uns serialized guns, which actually was a manufacturing thing that again, the government exploited and turned into a tracking system.

4 (1h 30m 27s):
But they wanna make it, they wanna make it seem like it’s an epidemic and that some and that something has to be done when it’s actually, again, that’s not what drives the crime. That’s not what, that’s not what felons when they’ve been surveyed by the DOJ twice now under Barack Obama, that’s not where they’re getting their stuff. they said that they wanna focus the ATFs resources on identifying developments and illicit firearm mark marketplaces, including the use of new technologies. What are you talking about? To make an undetectable firearms that all this other, they at some point they’re probably gonna be in 3D printing machines. I’m just waiting for that to happen. But they have the machine conversion, the machine gun conversion devices, the 3D printed firearms, they wanna go after 3D printed firearms. they said that they can be used for illegal purposes like gun trafficking, et cetera.

4 (1h 31m 10s):
They’re not, people aren’t out there fabricating their own guns though. There’s no evidence to support that accusation there. There isn’t. And furthermore, I mean when you’re talking about 3D printed guns, they’re even, you have to have good quality material. There’s a, that’s a big conversation that look gang bangers are not having, they’re not getting 3D printers and printing the stuff off in their garages. That’s just entirely wholly unsupported by the evidence. It, it, it, I mean people can get say otherwise, but the evidence doesn’t support that. It sounds like they wanna go after 3D printing though. Interesting. So it, this is basically, this is, they’re just using this as a political football in an election season.

4 (1h 31m 52s):
That’s what it is. It’s just a political football in an election season. But you can’t underestimate that and think that nothing will come of it or that it won’t be used, won’t be further used by the left because they always, they always throw a bunch of stuff out there and then they’ll stake the claim on one. So they always try to gain some kind of ground no matter what. So that’s the latest that eo from the Biden administration, by the way, we were talking about the suicide pod a little bit earlier and, and Lorraine said that the pod dete, because you, you apparently, we are trying to figure out what you do. Is it used, like how do you get out of it? Like does it just like, you know, fling your body into

25 (1h 32m 33s):
The

4 (1h 32m 33s):
Water like, like a highland fling? Does it just like throw it into the atmosphere? Like what happens? She says it detaches and it’s used as your coffin and then they 3D print another one for the next person. Oh,

11 (1h 32m 46s):
So that quells your fears of gunk being in there, somebody else’s

4 (1h 32m 49s):
Well I think they’re horrible feasts, but I’m just like, yeah, like did they clean it up? ’cause it’s nasty. Like people don’t, you lose control of your stuff.

11 (1h 32m 56s):
You also brought up a great question so they don’t embalm them.

4 (1h 32m 60s):
Well that’s what I asked. I’m like, do they do, do they embalm the people in there? They’re just like, okay, it’s done. Because you’re, then you’re in there and you’re like all juicy still. So come on. But still, you know, for real, like what Ew,

25 (1h 33m 13s):
Juicy

4 (1h 33m 13s):
Let’s, yeah, that’s, it turns into like a Cadbury a gross Cadbury egg. That’s

11 (1h 33m 18s):
The adjective you chose.

4 (1h 33m 19s):
Well, I’m just trying to, Lord, it’s sad and I feel sad for the people who feel like there’s no other option. But do you realize how ludicrous this thing is? You go into a giant space egg that marks you.

25 (1h 33m 30s):
It is,

26 (1h 33m 32s):
It’s like Mork from Orc only written reverse.

4 (1h 33m 35s):
And it, it’s so, it, it’s such an anticlimactic way to go get into your egg. Okay, bye now. Then they’ll bury you in it. That’s don don’t know. I know. It’s a very macabre thing. It’s spooky season. So I I. don don don’t know. Just the whole thing is odd. So the other thing we were discussing is this Eric Adams, they said he’s taken, what was the, lemme look at this. What was the number that he took over a hundred thousand dollars in bribes. I made the point that he’s almost taken as much as the Biden’s. And the Clintons

25 (1h 34m 6s):
Almost,

4 (1h 34m 7s):
Almost. He’s almost taken, I mean, it’s not anywhere near what they’ve taken, but you know, he’s almost there. He’s almost there. and I don don’t know. It’s sad that we’re, that we just assume that, okay, well this is, this is Democrats, this is what they do. This is how they, how they operate. This is, you know, it’s sad that it is so customary with either Bob Menendez, they got Hunter Biden and Joe Biden and the Clintons and Eric Adams. Andrew Cuomo though thinks that he’s got a shot. He thinks he’s got a shot. Andrew Cuomo is eyeing this up one side and down the other.

4 (1h 34m 49s):
He’s looking, he thinks that he actually may be able to get in there and become mayor. He’s eyeing a comeback. Axios has the story, how he’s already floating it out there to folks that he’s preparing to run for mayor. You remember disgraced former New York governor Andrew Cuomo, who killed all Y’s grandparents in New York there. He’s, he’s, he wants to go from a disgrace governor. He was, he the only reason that he was actually forced to resign was because of a sexual harassment scandal. Not because he killed everybody’s grandparents. So now he’s considering a comeback. We’re gonna talk about this coming up. Firehouse

4 (1h 36m 16s):
So Wealthy Gen Zers are leaving California according to a new study. The, they’re leaving, they, they’re defined as people who run households under the age of 26 if they bring in more than $200,000 a year. So they’re classified as high earners by the IRS because of their agent income. And they said that Wealthy Gen Zers are leaving and they’re going, they’re leaving West Coast entirely. A lot of them are going to, in fact, this is, they’re where they’re going to, where’s New York? They, which is blows my mind. Why are they going to New York, Florida, Tennessee, Colorado, and Texas.

4 (1h 36m 59s):
Those are the top five I think if you go to New York, because maybe if they wanna live in the city, you know, if they’re, they’re young, they don’t have kids, maybe they think that’s where to go. How weird is that though? Those states saw the biggest influx of top earning Gen Z household New York is. No, that’s so weird to me. But don don’t. Mm, it’s what it is. The same. you know, also a couple other Of. course it’s not gonna pull up. It may not pull up. Let’s see here.

According to them, there was a shooting victim on board as well, according to KTLA. Then they surrounded it yesterday in downtown Los Angeles. And they were able to get people out and they, they don’t really say anything about the perp only that they were able to take them into custody. And that’s kind of it.

Expanding that child tax credit. Or you mentioned housing before, giving that extra money for a first home. If you can’t raise corporate taxes or if GOP takes control of the Senate, where do you get the money to do that? Do you still go forward with those plans and borrow

5 (1h 39m 38s):
Well, but we’re gonna have to raise corporate taxes and we’re gonna have to raise, we’re gonna have to make sure that the biggest corporations and billionaires pay their fair share. That’s just it. It’s about paying their fair share. I’m not mad at anyone for achieving success, but everyone should pay their fair share. And it is not right. Say a couple more times. The teachers and the firefighters that I meet every day across our country are paying a higher tax.

4 (1h 40m 7s):
They’re not

5 (1h 40m 8s):
Than the richest people in our country. They’re

28 (1h 40m 10s):
Really not. They just said it this week. If he was in charge of taxes, he would’ve paid more. But how do you find that line to make sure corporations are paying their fair share but they’re not leaving our country.

5 (1h 40m 21s):
Well, listen, I work with a lot of CEOs, I have spent a lot of time with CEOs and I’m gonna tell you that the business leaders who are actually part of the engine of America’s economy agree that people should pay their fair share. They also agree that when we look at a plant such as mine that is about investing in the middle class, investing in new industries, investing in bringing down costs, invest in entrepreneurs like small businesses, but the overall economy is stronger and everyone benefits

4 (1h 40m 53s):
That is, first off, she knows nothing

29 (1h 40m 56s):
Less than

4 (1h 40m 57s):
Oh but wasn, but wasn, Kamala Harris’ interview with Stephanie Rule who what in the Wednesday, Adams hell and I say this is a goth kid. Was she wearing, that’s not an appropriate outfit for that. And also why the red shoes with it? That’s just not no, but not that aside. I she just, did you see, did you watch her expression, Harris’s expression when she’s talking? ’cause she doesn’t know what she’s saying. She has no idea how to answer this question because she doesn’t know anything about the economy. So she’s like, well pay their fair share. Just, she just, her brain went there because that’s, she defaulted to it because, but wasn her highest level of knowledge on it. Just pay their fair share.

4 (1h 41m 37s):
you know, if they, if they pay their share, which is fair, if they share fairly, you know, what they get what their pay, pay their fair share, share their fair pair, pay their share. Fa it’s like, she’s like, Moy Rose. If you love fruit wine as much as I do, you’ll love earth bar flickers wine, birth har flicker. That’s if you just pay your fair share, share fair pair hair, that’s all you gotta do. Pay your fair hair, it’s pay your fair hair. That’s, there’s a wise rabbit in the top hat.

4 (1h 42m 22s):
I don’t even know, man. Where’s it happen? Where’s it going? don? Don’t know. That’s so stupid. It’s based on a myth. It’s because we’ve all that. So first off, number one, I don’t understand though, when, when you look at the most recent data that is available, and I got tons of notes on this, I, it, it’s pretty stunning. When you see who actually does pay the fair share in 2021, the top 1%, they earned 26% of income, but they paid like over 47% of all the federal income taxes. That’s just the very, very top 1%. Huh? Is that the fair share? They paid more than the bottom 95% combined.

29 (1h 43m 4s):
Huh?

4 (1h 43m 5s):
So what’s, how do you, so you’re saying that they have to pay more to make it fairer.

11 (1h 43m 11s):
Wait, are you saying the rich, the top 1% Yeah.

4 (1h 43m 15s):
Are paying the top 1%. They’re

11 (1h 43m 16s):
Paying 95% of the tax burden?

4 (1h 43m 19s):
Yes. Well, no, I’m saying they’re paying more than the bottom 95% that’s combined. Right? That’s, I mean, that’s what I mean. So, so they’ve earned 26% of the income, but they’re paying like 47% of all federal income taxes.

11 (1h 43m 31s):
So it sounds like we need numbers from them. They need to be specific as to what looks, looks

4 (1h 43m 36s):
Like. So, so if they pay more, is that fairer? If you give up half your income and taxes, ugh, is that more than half your income to make it fairer while nobody, the other people don’t pay as much? I mean it’s, that’s these are like from, these are actual IRS, you know, the, I they, what do they, what do the hell they mean? The fair share thing? These people have no idea what this is. What

11 (1h 43m 59s):
I also hate is the, they conflate the two different numbers. Like they’ll say a dollar amount or they’ll say a percentage. Like, so if the rich are only paying 8% or they’re not paying, let’s say they’re only paying 2% and these firefighters and nurses and the people they like to bring up that are paying say 20 or 20. But

4 (1h 44m 16s):
Listen, because we got, you got the top 1%, you’re gonna get really mad. Ka do you want the top 10? Top 10? Because we move the top 1%. All right, so the top 10, maybe they don’t pay. Maybe if you put more people in there, they pay less.

11 (1h 44m 28s):
So these are the richest 10% of America.

4 (1h 44m 30s):
Okay, so you have the top 1% rem remember they pay, it’s like 47%. The top, I mean, what is it? The top 50% paid 97% of all federal taxes came. Look, that’s where you’re, that’s probably what you’re thinking about the 90 something percent. Yes. It’s the top 50% that paid. Actually it’s almost 98%. It’s approximately 97.7%. The bottom 50% paid 2.3.

11 (1h 45m 5s):
2.3.

4 (1h 45m 6s):
Yes. Yes.

11 (1h 45m 10s):
So the narrative’s a lie.

4 (1h 45m 12s):
Oh, my gosh, it’s a completely, totally a lie. I mean a thousand percent a lie. In looking at this, you have the top 1%. You have the, I’m trying to find my notes on, there’s a lot there. You have the top 10%. They, I mean the tax rate of the top 10% was like, what, 22%. And they ended up, I mean they ended up paying 75% of total income taxes paid. So the top 10%, actually it’s 76%. Sorry, it’s 75 point eights. So round up. So the top 10% pay 76 per pay.

4 (1h 45m 51s):
76% of all of the total income taxes. Are you okay? I think Cain literally just had a stroke. Are you okay over there? Seriously, you, are you breathing?

11 (1h 46m 2s):
I was looking it up too. and I saw what Carol Roth posted this morning. And a according to this, and this is just a screenshot of her Googling it. Yeah. 59.9%. So 60% of US households paid income tax in 2022. The remaining 40

4 (1h 46m 18s):
Paid nothing

11 (1h 46m 19s):
Paid, no taxes at all.

4 (1h 46m 22s):
They paid nothing. That is correct. That is correct. Oh, and by the way, all of the stuff that I’m, the figures that I’m citing, I’ll give you the, I’ll give you the website. It’s irs.gov/statistics/ So I tax stats, individual statistical tables by tax rate and income percentile. So it’s from the government. This is, yeah, but wait, there’s more. The bottom 50%, 2.3% is what they paid. Their tax rate was about 3.3%. Top 50% average tax rate, 16%, top 25 18%, top 10, 22%, top five, 23%, top one 26%.

11 (1h 47m 10s):
And I also feel like people don’t know what payroll taxes.

4 (1h 47m 13s):
No, they don’t

11 (1h 47m 14s):
Are. And what they mean and how it’s double dipped every time the company has to

4 (1h 47m 18s):
Write a paycheck. Oh yeah, that’s exactly. So the idea of fair share is an abs that’s for her to say this is, is is economically ignorant and it’s embarrassing. But she has no, I mean this is all she’s made of. Wait, this is okay. Audio soundbite 14. Stephanie rule was like te telling her, you’re not actually giving me straight answers on any of those stuff. Listen

28 (1h 47m 44s):
Work. And one could watch that and say, well, she didn’t give a clear, direct answer. That’s okay, because we are not talking about clear or direct issues. What,

4 (1h 47m 52s):
What? It’s okay to not have clear answers because we’re not, we don’t know what the hell we’re talking about. I mean, what in the nonsense is that? That’s crazy. That is so, that is so embarrassing. You guys. Audio soundbite six. It’s just she’s talking about her plan here guys, dreams and ambitions.

28 (1h 48m 19s):
Madam Vice president, you just laid out your economic vision for the future. Yeah, but still there are lots of Americans who don’t see themselves in your plans. For those who say, these policies aren’t for me, what do you say to them?

5 (1h 48m 36s):
Well, if you are hardworking, if you have the dreams and the ambitions and the aspirations of what I believe you do and what you’re in my plan, you know, I, I have to tell you I really love and I’m so energized. What? By what I know to be the spirit and character of the American people. We have

4 (1h 49m 4s):
Ambition. This is the black love campaign.

5 (1h 49m 5s):
We have aspirations. We have

4 (1h 49m 6s):
Dreams. She again, drunk Hallmark. That’s what it sounds like. It just doesn’t, she called, what did she say? The buzzword that she used. Oh, she was trying to say that She said holistic three times in a 15 second period.

30 (1h 49m 25s):
And inspiring.

4 (1h 49m 27s):
She said, looking holistically at the connection between that and housing and looking holistically at the incentives being the federal government can create for local and state governments to actually engage in planning in a holistic manner that includes prioritizing affordable housing. Hey, Kane, you like that holistic hippie stuff? How many times do you say holistic A day?

11 (1h 49m 50s):
None.

4 (1h 49m 50s):
How many times do you listeners out there and viewers say holistic a day? I literally never say it. I never ever say it.

11 (1h 49m 57s):
I can’t. I mean, I’ve said it to describe what other people have said. What

4 (1h 50m 0s):
Is holistically at the incent isn’t getting the federal and government involved, like literally the opposite of holistic. Yes. I, it’s, that’s so stupid. I just can’t, I don don’t know. I don’t think she understands that. She says, she talks in like Venn diagram word salad. That’s all it is. That’s all it is. That this should terrify you. She has no idea how to, she has no idea what to implement. She has no policies, economic policies. ’cause she doesn’t know how the economy works. She, she has never worked in, she doesn’t work in the private sector. She doesn’t work in businesses. She doesn’t know how to do that. I wanted to get to this story really quickly. I wrote about this over at Substack chapter in verse.

4 (1h 50m 41s):
You got this last night. If you’re a subscriber in Mountain View, Missouri, Liberty Middle sch, Liberty Middle School suspended 13-year-old Riley Gron because he made a gun out of Dr. Pepper cans. Like he didn’t fashion like a fireable gun out of Dr. Pepper cans. He laid actual Dr. Pepper cans on his bed in the shape of what looks like a lowercase k but it’s in the shape of a, a rifle. And so his school suspended him and they gave him two marks on his permanent record. One for cyber bullying and another for making a school threat. Even though he never made any threats ever to anybody, anything, anyone ever. And no bullying took place.

4 (1h 51m 22s):
This is what the school said. Quote, we have enough information to believe the video has caused fear for one student. So they, I was looking back at this, don don’t think the mom, ’cause we talked about this yesterday, don don’t think the mom is taking legal action, but I think that she should think about this. The anti-gun brigade has spent the last decade shaking kids down over Nerf guns. Remember that? Nerf guns, they went after a kid. He got kicked outta school because he had a Nerf gun. There was in New Jersey, Amazon, you can’t get Nerf guns. They like banned all these toy guns. They have scared kids over finger guns. You remember the 10-year-old who was suspended? ’cause he was playing outside. They were literally like playing cops and robbers. He was a fifth grader and he made a finger gun and he got suspended from school.

4 (1h 52m 6s):
I mean, I have so many examples of kids literally getting suspended from school for finger guns. It’s crazy. Or what about the kid who ate his pop tart at school and the shape of a gun and he got in trouble. This was in Maryland. A 7-year-old ate his Pop-Tart into the shape of a gun and got in trouble. It, it was at Park Elementary School, they suspended him at for two days. This is, and this is what I touched on when we were discussing the, the executive orders on gun control and they were talking about doing shooter drills. These school, like Liberty Middle School, has zero proper threat assessment capabilities. That’s appalling. They, they teach kids to fear non-threatening situations, but then they shame them for like listening to instinctual fear over, over actual threatening situations like the girl in Virginia who walked into the girl’s bathroom.

4 (1h 52m 55s):
And because a boy who played pretended to be a girl was allowed in there per school trans policies, he was able to attack the girl and brutally rape her in the school’s bathroom. So when you have Liberty Middle School that clearly can’t differentiate between a real and, and not real threat, it makes me concerned about their ability or lack thereof to properly handle anything, including actual threats. Like why didn’t they reach out to this kid’s mom to assess the potential threat level before they they suspended her kid? Or like, why didn’t the school tell the student that cans can’t hurt you? Or why didn’t the school reiterate that while one of these incidents is too many, they’re extremely, they’re very rare and preventable.

4 (1h 53m 39s):
’cause if anybody was bullied here, I think it’s this kid ri gron. They’re, they’re making everybody afraid over everything. When you make everybody afraid over everything, there’s security for No one. I don’t know. I I maybe when you consider that context, maybe it’s understandable that there was a kid who felt fear over a Dr. Pepper can. I mean, we tell kids not to eat Tide pods apparently. Some have to be told, maybe their parents should be told too at this point. But I, I really don’t think that the fear in this is genuine. I think honestly, it’s just politically motivated and they’re masking it as, as fear, which I think is so heinous and I don’t know. They’re, they’re, they’re punishing this innocent kid and I feel bad for him.

4 (1h 54m 21s):
But man, I really do think the mom should, you know, kind of honestly kind of look at her options here because this is gonna go on his record that’s gonna follow him like all throughout school. He’s gonna have a record and they’re gonna look at him as a troublesome kid.

Is, this is the point at Chuck E. Cheese, where a super excitable staff member would bring me out. Like a piece, like some birthday, pizza and cake and all that. And then the, what is it? The jam band pass the pants out that they had at the Chuck E. Cheese would start playing. This was before five nights at Freddy’s confirmed that yes, you were right as a child to have an instinctual fear of these animatronic animals because they’re filled with demons. I guess you didn’t know that, did you? My, it’s not my birthday today. It’s my birthday officially Saturday, but I’m off air tomorrow. But, but I thank, thank you for playing the track.

Yes, it’s, it’s correct. Got it. That’s correct. I will not be having any mummy neck cheese. I’m saving this headline for you for Monday. But cheese dating back almost 4,000 years was found in a Chinese tomb, in a necklace on this, this Chinese mummy’s neck. I just think that she looks like somebody would shop at Anthropology, right? She’s like in a sock hat and she’s got like Pelosi legs and you know, it’s, you know, if you wanted to headline it like Zoomer style, it would be like dead mommy with her neck cheese. Dead mommy with her neck cheese. Anyway,
