In this episode, we delve into the buzzing political sphere, starting with the recent sanctions on Cuba and the global reactions to President Trump’s tweets. We examine how low voter turnout has impacted local elections, causing a ripple effect across school boards. The conversation heats up as we discuss current Iran negotiations, exposing the subtleties of international alliances and the role countries like China play on this intricate chessboard. Accompanied by expert insights from Stephen Yates, this episode promises a comprehensive take on geopolitics as Trump’s significant summit with Xi Jinping approaches. Amidst serious global issues, we switch gears

The more you do that, the more the tech overlords have to show this program to new people. So hit follow, drop a review, and help us grow this community. And so here we are. Welcome to the radio program. Dana Lash with you. This is the start of our week. So not a whole heck of a lot has changed. Our dominance remains the same there. And you heard Scott Besson explain why. just there how successful we have been. We’ve also had sanctions, new sanctions on the Cuban regime that were passed. I think everybody was freaking out when they saw that tweet from Trump. Did you see that tweet from Trump over the weekend, Cain, where it was like he was saying, oh, well, yeah, we’ll just take over Cuba. We’ll take over Cuba. I mean, yeah, I really don’t want to take over Cuba. But at the same time, I would like to visit one day. I think that would be nice just to visit. So We are in this. It’s we’re going to dive into all of the latest. And we also have Stephen Yates, who is going to be coming up later as well. He’s going to be on in our third hour and we’ll be talking to him. We’re also going to get into some of the domestic with the White House and then some election stuff. We had a lot of municipal elections over the weekend and apparently Republican turnout was desperately low. And that is that’s it’s it’s so bad that it actually cost us a whole school board in. I think this was there was Grapevine Colleyville. There were a couple of other places as well. And it had to do with apathy and had to do with apathy. The turnout was abysmal. I think it was like 13 percent turnout in one of these areas. I mean. It was pretty low. So we’re going to explore some of that because it doesn’t matter. Really, I’ve always said that I think it’s not really Democrats that are the biggest threat to Republicans. It’s Republican apathy. That’s the biggest threat to Republicans. There was a mayoral shit that was also lost because of low voter turnout. So we’re going to dive into that as well. And then, of course, the big spirit airline sale. It is pretty crazy the way that Democrats have been trying to say it’s all Trump’s fault because everything’s Trump’s fault. You know, nothing ever happened before Trump took office. I mean, it was just a barren planet. And then, you know, that was kind of it. It was a barren planet. So it is. This getting you set up ahead of this Mother’s Day weekend. All right. So coming up into this, I’m pulling up a couple of things. We talked about the Cuban regimes, the sanctions that were coming against that. We also were discussing the the situation with Iran. I don’t think there’s going to be permanent damage if they ever. What does that even mean? Permanent damage. Nobody even knows what that means. It’s going to be permanent damage if you don’t let us. Well, there’s going to be permanent damage if you don’t just stop attacking people. There’s also that. I mean, if you would stop to consider it for a minute. But the I think the overall goal remains the same. The overall goal remains the same. Now, CENTCOM had also I’m going to pull up a couple of other things here for you. CENTCOM had also. given an update about the Strait of Hormuz, which is called Project Freedom. I love how they call it a humanitarian gesture because it very much is. CENTCOM said they’re going to support Project Freedom to restore freedom of navigation for commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, et cetera, et cetera. So they’re helping. Although CENTCOM is saying, and this was Iranian propaganda, they were trying to say that the regime was able to successfully hit a U.S. vessel over the weekend. That didn’t happen. That’s all just absolute propaganda. I think people need to realize that the whole issue with propaganda with Iran and how it’s, I see too many, especially a lot of the woke Reich, I see too many that just run with it without any kind of validation, any kind of verification, anything like that. So that was all, that was just propaganda. But we’ll see. We’ll get into all of it. Also, I know there’s a lot of weird all-ins and stuff to set you up with. The issue of Islamification, which we’re going to dive into. Because in Texas, there’s a city-owned water park that apparently is making it closed to, they’re having an event. It’s the Eid weekend or something. And it’s a taxpayer-funded water park. It’s in Grand Prairie. So it was a bond issue. You also have taxpayers that support it and Apparently they’re having it’s a third annual. So they’ve done this three times before they’re having their third annual EID Whatever celebration and on the mailers and on all of the promotional materials that reportedly says Muslims only so which you can’t do. And I don’t think that people understand this on social media. Someone was saying, well, Dana, you know, they can rent them out for private events, but you don’t understand. You can rent it out for a private event, but it’s still taxpayer funded. And that’s the establishment clause. That’s the equal protection clause. There’s literal case law on this. By the way, who disagrees with me that if this were to be booked, say for a Christian event, and it said Christians only, that there wouldn’t be riots in the streets over this? You know there would be. You absolutely know there would be. So this is part, I mean, it’s the Islamification of America. This is what’s coming. Yeah, I think you made a very good point, Ken. You said, well, this is them trying to blur those lines. Too many people were arguing that. Well, you know, I agree, but it’s a, it’s, you know, you can rent it out for a private event. That’s irrelevant. It’s owned by the city. Now, if it was a privately owned entity, that’s one thing. You would be completely correct. But it’s owned by the city of Grand Prairie. And it’s taxpayer funded, meaning they still fund it. And in fact, as a concession for funding it with tax dollars, the people who live in Grand Prairie get a discount going there. So you can’t just say, oh, well, it’s owned by the city. Again, there’s case law on this. And apparently this is the third time they’ve done it. How do you do it for three times and now we’re only just now hearing about it? That’s weird. We’re only just now hearing about it. Just saying. It’s very odd. But there have been people making objections and now I think the independent press has turned on to it. So we’re going to see how that goes and see what the city of Grand Prairie has to say. I just don’t know. I mean, what is—they said modest dress. I mean, you’re at a water park. I mean, that’s not to say that you don’t run around in a string bikini, but still, what does modest dress mean? Because even a swimsuit, according to Sharia, is considered haram. That’s why under Sharia, they walk out wearing the full-on burqas, which I don’t even know how you can swim in something like that. I think that’s the point. You don’t. But still— It’s, and apparently it was so successful before that they’re doing it. They’ve done it. This is the third time. Like we’ve said, I don’t know. I, you wouldn’t know if they shower before they decide to get in. I don’t know. I don’t, yeah. I don’t know if they swim either. They have a prayer area. They’re putting up a prayer area there too.
SPEAKER 07 :
I mean, I care about public spaces.
SPEAKER 01 :
I like how you just generally throw that out. I care about public spaces. It’s a thing. I do. I do care about it. You know? Yeah. I care about those public spaces. I get it. Yeah. So I don’t know. Again, I don’t even know how anybody could get away with something like this, but we’ll explore it more. We will explore it more. Did you guys see, by the way, Marco Rubio DJing over the weekend? What? So he was apparently at a family wedding and decided he was going to DJ. Now, I don’t know if it was his song choice or not, but it was like some pop stuff. Is there nothing this guy can’t do? He’s also not officially the White House DJ. Marco Rubio is also the White House DJ. Notice how he just never really claps back at the press for like anything. Like all he does is just do stuff. He actually he does his job. It’s real weird. I don’t know what to make of it. Right. I mean, he’s also probably doing a job here for somebody. The DJ. But he’s also like, look how studious he is. If you’re watching with the simulcast, he’s so studious about it. He’s, you know, most DJs are up there. No, this is Marco Rubio. Marco Rubio doesn’t care whether or not you like his set.
SPEAKER 07 :
He’s hearing one track in that one ear and then he’s hearing the monitor. Obviously everyone else is hearing the other ear and he’s doing the mix. Look at that.
SPEAKER 01 :
DJ Fun Uncle, does he seem like a very serious DJ? He seems like he’s going to, I don’t know if he’s going to just drop the bass or whoop ass. I don’t know what he’s going to do.
SPEAKER 04 :
I have to give him props. He had one ear on the feedback on the cue speaker and then one ear on the mix. He’s good.
SPEAKER 01 :
I don’t even know what he just said. That’s great, though. He repeated what I just said. Yeah, but he did it in DJ Fun Uncle terms. He’s got the receiver with the audio.
SPEAKER 06 :
That sounds legit.
SPEAKER 01 :
You’re right. It sounds legit. I sound like I knew what I was doing just then. Hey folks, it’s Dana. And if you know me, you know I’m a total foodie. I love to cook and I love quality, flavorful, fresh ingredients. And my newest discovery is fresh pressed olive oil, which has really enhanced my appreciation for olive oil from here on out. It’s richer. It’s more vibrant. It just makes everything better from salads or dipping fresh bread. It just tastes great. And it’s rich in antioxidants. So why does freshness matter? Because olive oil isn’t just oil, it’s actually a fresh pressed fruit. And like anything fresh, the flavor and the health benefits are at their peak right after harvest. TJ, the owner of Fresh Pressed Olive Oil, sources the world’s most delicious and artisanal olive oils direct from the gold medal winning small olive farms around the world during the peak harvest season. You can try it for yourself and get a full-sized $49 bottle for free. You just pay a dollar in shipping. That’s crazy. Visit danalovesoliveoil.com and claim your free bottle for just $1 in shipping. No commitment. You can cancel anytime. Once you try fresh-pressed olive oil, though, there is no going back. Everything else tastes like hobo oil. It just doesn’t even count. Visit danalovesoliveoil.com.
SPEAKER 04 :
We are facing the biggest energy security threat in history. Experts are saying we’ve lost 13 million barrels of oil per day, and the effects truly are not priced in yet. If this extends much longer, then look out. Check out the Watchdog on Wall Street podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you get your podcasts. And now, all of the news you would probably miss.
SPEAKER 07 :
It’s time for Dana’s Quick Five.
SPEAKER 01 :
Well, we have good jobs numbers that came in, but now it says this from CBS. More Americans are quitting their U.S. jobs to work abroad. They want greener and less office-bound pastures. I think COVID really did a number on people. Over the last five years, they say the share of employees who have left their jobs in the United States to work abroad has more than doubled, climbing from 2.7% at the end of 2021 all the way to 6% by the end of 2025. And the data includes both U.S. and foreign-born workers, encompassing those employed by a non-U.S. company as well as those working remotely for an American company. Huh, so a lot of people are… What does that look for?
SPEAKER 07 :
It’s funny how millions upon millions of people just have to be here in the United States, but these people are just too good for the goodness of the United States.
SPEAKER 01 :
It’s too good. We just want to go and pay higher taxes somewhere so we can make Instagram photos every day. I feel like that’s what it is. They want that influencer life, yo. The ratpocalypse is forcing residents in a northwestern state to… To catch them with their bare, nasty, gross hands. No, I don’t want to read this. It’s in Idaho. I’m not scared of them, but they make me vomit. A rat, I’ll vomit on sight. There’s something, I’m not joking you. If you, I can, on cue, show me a rat, I’ll vomit.
SPEAKER 07 :
Yeah, they’re so robust. Mice?
SPEAKER 01 :
Mice are fine. A rat?
SPEAKER 07 :
You gotta step on it like three times.
SPEAKER 01 :
Oh, you got to, like, slam it against the wall, step on it. I’m not saying I do any of these things. I’m just, you know. Apparently, though, so in this town in Idaho, this poor couple, they’re in their 70s. They were getting woken up at night. They say they’re smart rats, and they go back to their hideout, and they got into a cable hole, and it apparently about gave the wife a heart attack. And they can jump six feet. And apparently it’s really bad. The Daily Mail piece, because it’s just written like verbal diarrhea or written diarrhea, it’s horrible. They don’t even tell you what the name of the town is all the way until the third to the last paragraph. It’s Treasure Valley area. For those who were interested, who is this? Who’s this writer? OK, Alyssa Guzman, fire yourself. You’re awful. This is horrible. Oh, my gosh. Stop it. Let’s see. Rumors are swirling amongst Miami brokers that Elon Musk toured a 300 million dollar under construction mansion. So get lives, you weirdos. Spirit, a Spirit pilot, loses his retirement flight by one day. And so they delivered, Southwest delivered for him a really great sendoff because Spirit Airlines got shut down. This pilot who served all this time with Spirit Airlines, he didn’t get his retirement flights and they do the water cannons. His name is Captain John Jackson. And so Southwest… They found out they gave him the water cannon salute. They had a they toasted him with some champagne. And that was really nice that they did that for him. Because can you imagine you miss it by one day? And that’s kind of like, you know, the high note of your very long and storied career with an airline. So that’s nice. There’s a lot of camaraderie with aviation. So that’s really nice that they did that for him. Our partners that bring you the program, it’s our friends over at Super Beats. Zero sugar now.

And it’s a very high stakes summit with Xi Jinping. And they’re looking at managing trade tensions and geopolitical issues. And it’s been delayed. And I keep finding new things that are going to make it more difficult for them to have like a super happy go lucky kind of conversation. Like, for instance, how Iran is now saying they want China to take a key role in negotiations with the United States. Why? Why would why do they why do they get to demand that? And why would China have any party to this? Oh, well, it’s pretty obvious. Joining us on this issue, our very good friend Stephen Yates, who is not well, he not served in not one, but two presidential administrations on this exact issue. And he’s also the senior research fellow at the Heritage Foundation. He joins us now. Mr. Yates, always so good to have you. Why would Iran want China to be involved in these negotiations?
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, I think they’re good friends and the Revolutionary Guard have been talking to other revolutionary red people over there in the People’s Republic and things haven’t been going too well for that Revolutionary Guard. They talk a tough game, they engage in political warfare, but a lot of what they bought from the Chinese has gotten smoked and they still have enough to be a nuisance and to cause some problems. And they’re probably looking at China saying, you know, we’ve got nowhere else to go. And we did this BRICS thing for a while. And for the last two months, you guys have been conspicuously quiet over there in the Indo-Pacific corner. How about, you know, when Trump goes visit you, you do something for us? Now, they might be getting a nifty little lesson that China doesn’t do favors for small parties. They might not do favors for anybody, but if you’re not a power, you can go into the outer ring of the emperor’s secret kingdom. You don’t get to go to the sanctum sanctorum.
SPEAKER 01 :
It sounds like Iran is a little bit disgruntled over the, I guess, lack of public support, because I know China’s been providing them with, you know, different inputs. And, you know, we had the one tanker that was apparently bringing some parts for their missiles if they were able to actually, like, you know, start bring that program back up again. They’ve been helping them in very quiet ways. But, yeah, on the international stage, they’ve been absent. Is this going to induce them to get involved, though?
SPEAKER 03 :
I doubt it. China could very easily try to play some angles on this. They always try to say, well, we’re about peace and freedom of navigation. And you just have to stop the belly laugh for a minute about, well, what is this nine dash line you’ve made up? And what are these water cannons and other things you’ve been shooting at Philippine vessels in their country? Exclusive economic zone and this freedom of navigation you speak of, would that include the Taiwan Strait for any vessel that’s international and commercial, just go whenever it wants? Are you trying to exercise for a form of blockade? In other words, don’t try to bring shade on me if… You’re basically projecting what you’re already trying to do. That’s what I think a normal, rational president would do if they tried to bring it up. And at some level, the Chinese are going to know if the Iranians are asking for them to look foolish in front of President Trump at this summit, then they’ll just sort of let that go into the memory hole.
SPEAKER 01 :
Yeah, that’s what it seems like. We’re talking to our good friend Stephen Yates at Steve Yates on X. So China has apparently ordered all of its domestic companies to not comply with these U.S. sanctions. So the way I understand it is that it’s it’s a 2021 like block, a law that was aimed at shielding firms for what it called unjustified foreign measures. And it names a petrochemical in this Economic Times article. But China is saying, no, no, no, you don’t have to comply with these sanctions that they had on these refineries that were linked to Iran’s oil trade. That seems like really bad advice for China to give these entities.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, it’s good to know that they don’t want anyone to abide by any things like this, because now I guess there’s no restrictions in doing things in China. And maybe we should be able to act with impunity within their country. And of course, if they have opinions about what should be done in the near abroad, we should disregard those completely. Thank you very much for setting the tone and the example, Mr. China. But I think that in seriousness, what they’re running into is something that their scholars know because they’ve studied it for a very long time. These rules aren’t really rules. The world runs on power. And so if you have it and you use it, Other people will define rules that say this is how you’re going to have to follow the powerful. China wants to be that power. They have some leverage some of the time, but they are not a power that can impose their will except in sort of rare instances, whether it’s the rare Earth for a moment, if they’re trying to force a crisis somewhere. But they’re very, very far from being able to shape events. And I don’t think they want to be seen as being that ineffectual. So I doubt they’re going to try to swoop in. They’ll mail in an academic article that suggests some plan for peace that no one in the region will take seriously. I mean, you have small population, high power countries like the UAE who got smacked today and likely are going to smack back. And my guess is that will be more strategically significant than anything China’s got on its horizon.
SPEAKER 01 :
Oh, that’s a really good point. Yeah, they got hit by Iran again. UAE did, which, you know, it’s not like they’re friends anyway. I know the Saudis and UAE are very closely aligned, like ideologically as well. But yeah, that’s not going to go that they will hit back for that for sure. We’re talking with Stephen Yates, the Trump visit. How is this going to go? Because there is so much palace intrigue leading up to this. And I just I was part of. Well, I guess let me ask this. Why isn’t why isn’t Trump making Xi Jinping come here?
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, I think he wants to try to make him come here. It’s supposed to, in theory, happen later this year. Whether it’s a part of the G20 summit, you know, from past conversations, if the G number is high, I find the uselessness factor of the gathering to also be high. But we are supposed to host that. in the fall, and there’s talk of maybe Xi Jinping coming to the United States around then. And this has basically been imposed by President Trump on China. Xi wasn’t talking about making this kind of exchange. When they met in Korea at the APEC summit, Trump laid down this sort of pace of different visits and meetings that could happen, and China really couldn’t say no. So it could still be in the works. I think that there’s some sense if you’re a strong president and you’ve got an agenda to say, hey, I want to rebalance our economic relationship and here are my terms. Here are some things you’re doing, like killing a generation of youth in America, and you’re going to stop that, right? Go ahead. Go there, meet with them, have your business meeting, communicate what you’re going to communicate, come back. What I don’t want to see is the pattern of previous presidents that go and have loosey-goosey theater, and all you get is sort of the warm breeze blowing in and out the door, and you come back and have the same movie over six or 12 months later. That’s been the pattern of U.S.-China negotiations for way too long. So I hope it’s businessman Trump that shows up if we’re going to have a summit.
SPEAKER 01 :
Yeah, I would love to see that. I just remember when he had Putin meet him in Alaska. And it was interesting because he made him, we talked about this, he made him walk down that, because he knows he has a limb. Or at least, you know, we all see that he does and he pretends that he doesn’t. Made him walk down this red carpet and then climb the stairs. Like I thought he was going to, you know, have to go through this American gladiator type of concourse just to get through to meet and stand. And then a B-52 flew overhead as it was happening. I mean, the theater and the reminder that we could just mark you at any point. I mean, it was nice. I don’t want Xi Jinping to have that optic with Trump. So I don’t know if there’s anything that they could do to counter that because, I mean, it’s the Chinese, it’s Xi Jinping. I mean, this is a guy who is so sensitive and so tuned in to the most simplest of optics that he got mad over Winnie the Pooh and banned literally a cartoon yellow bear.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yep. Well, all of that is true. And if I had my druthers, I would rather us just sit, chill in our own space, be strong, be available if someone wants to come knocking, but no guarantees I’m available when you knock, and just play hard to get. We have the biggest, most powerful consumer market in the world. We are leading in the world’s most important technology. We shouldn’t be bashful or arrogant about that. But we are the leader. We’re going, if we commit to the right kinds of patterns, win a space race. We’re going to dominate resources and technology. We are dominant militarily when we get our act together and use power sensibly. Those are a lot of ifs in all of that, but it’s a lot more than any of the rest of the world combined can do. And to a degree, as long as China knows that and is made to know that, I’d rather sit back and let them knock. But President Trump wants to engage. He seeks problems that have been festering and wants to try to make a generational deal or adjustment. And he sees an opportunity in this relationship. I don’t know that I see the same opportunity. I just have very little faith in these counterparts’ ability or will to deliver. But I don’t fault him for trying. What I do fault are presidents who didn’t really try and even with that failed.
SPEAKER 01 :
Yeah. Well, this is going to be a meeting of meetings. Do you think this is going to be the most consequential meeting? Because they’ve met before. But this one seems like there’s a lot more at stake, this meeting. Do you think that this is the most consequential one? And what does Trump need to do to make this a success?
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, I don’t think he has to do a lot to make it a success, unless you set the bar really, really high. But I don’t set the bar high. I see this as a maintenance meeting. This is something where you set the tone. You are the leader that has changed the balance of power in global energy markets. You’ve changed the balance of power in every major region. And you’re here to touch base with a big, populous, powerful country in another important region just to let him know that you’re also going to change the balance of power in this region too. If you go in with that kind of attitude and reality, I think you can accomplish something by just going in and having that tone setter. I don’t think that they’re going to solve the world’s problems. And if you believe that Xi Jinping is committed to do meaningful things that are a concession from China, this is another don’t trust, just verify kind of negotiation.
SPEAKER 01 :
We’ll see. Stephen Yates, as always, so appreciate your perspective. It’s going to be very interesting when the day gets here. We’re like 10 days away. That is if it still goes through. A lot can happen in 10 days. That’s for sure. Good to see you, my friend. Have a great week. Thank you.
SPEAKER 03 :
Thank you, Dana. Take good care.

The Castle Doctrine gets a revamp down in Tennessee. And what’s behind Elon Musk’s new push for a universal basic income? Find out on this week’s edition of Liberty Nation Radio.
SPEAKER 06 :
It’s his life mission to make bad decisions. It’s time for Florida Man.
SPEAKER 01 :
Weird thought that I just had. So we have all of these videos of people in Austin and Dallas, not all of them, but like three, dropping trowel and doing a deuce right on the sidewalk, like, you know, brown eye out, you know, just out ready to rock in the sunshine. Nothing from like that from Florida, though. Aha, Kane. We don’t got no Florida man videos of that. I’m just saying. So a Florida man. Well, we do have this, though. Threatening beachgoers over a fight about a chair. Florida man was busted. This was Wednesday. It was a private surfside condo beachfront property. And he apparently got really mad. He asked to sit on a beach chair, but he was turned down because he doesn’t live there. And he became irate and then tried to swing a beach umbrella at another person. He tried to fight the beach. With an umbrella. And then he grabbed a drill. I don’t know how someone has a drill on the beach. You know, I don’t know, but they did. And then he, oh, you know what? Maybe it was one of those drills where you drill into the sand and put the umbrella in. Yeah, because that’s how they do it real fast. So he grabbed a drill and charged a man while raging, quote, I’m going to kill you, said police. Witnesses say they saw him running with the drill down a stretch of waterfront. Of course, the police got him. And somehow he lost his pants. Dude, I am looking at the body cam still. Dude is naked as the day he’s born. That’s all I’m saying. You can’t do that kind of stuff. A Florida man exposes genitals at a Chick-fil-A drive-thru. I said no pickles. You did that. You did that. Luke Dudkiewicz, 33, faces a charge of lewd exhibition. Palm Coast man was arrested after he exposed his junk to a minor at a Chick-fil-A. It’s not their pleasure. And it was a woman. The police immediately, of course, they were called, and they arrested him, took him to jail. She’s okay, but probably completely, totally grossed out. Our partners that bring you the program, it’s our friends at Preborn. Look, Preborn is such a great organization. They are the gospel leader for the pro-life movement. In 2025, over 80,000 babies were saved from abortion and over 10,000 women gave their hearts to Christ. It is an amazing thing that pre-born is doing. They have a passion for saving babies. Here’s the thing. Their clinics are, they go into the neighborhoods that are most preyed upon by the abortion industry. The abortion industry loves telling women that they’re too dumb. They’re too weak. They’re not empowered enough to raise a child. So if a woman’s facing an unplanned pregnancy, she’s scared. The abortion industry, they weaponize that. They exploit that for financial gain. But preborn stands right in their way and introduces the women to their babies. And when a woman hears her baby’s heartbeat for the first time, if she’s considering abortion, that baby’s chance at life doubles. But they don’t stop there. Preborn doesn’t let these women walk this path alone. They partner with them for the first two years of their lives. If these women require assistance, preborn stands there to help them with doctor’s appointments, diapers. I mean, the whole nine yards because they want this to be a success story. They want these women to get off on the best footing possible and these families to have a chance because they’re not just saving lives, they’re saving legacies, they’re saving generational future. And so Preborn, their mission, they want to sponsor 1,000 life-saving ultrasounds before Mother’s Day this weekend. $28 is the cost of one ultrasound. That’s insane. Imagine saving a life for the mere cost of $28. That’s crazy. 140, that’s five lives that you could save, five ultrasounds that you could save with $140. So partner with Preborn, and let’s make this happen before Mother’s Day. One heartbeat can change a life forever. And this is all, by the way, privately done. This isn’t any public taxpayer money, and Preborn has a four-star charity rating, and all gifts are tax-deductible, so you can give confidently. Very easy to do.

SPEAKER 06 :
Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States.
SPEAKER 01 :
Oh, this is a truck going down the highway and a jet literally hits the top of it. I want to say skims the top of it, but I feel like that that’s… That’s like when a woman runs into something with her car and says, it’s just a graze. Does that… Does that look like it’s a… a skim off the top a little bit. Yeah, it took the whole… I don’t even think that that driver saw the plane coming because the driver’s going one way and the plane, like, came, like, went over the top of him. And… I mean, that’s on a… Wasn’t that New Jersey?
SPEAKER 07 :
Yeah, I think so. I just… When I saw it yesterday, I saw it for the first time. I was like, wow, that’s a crazy video. Didn’t come with any real audio or anything. Yeah, I’m seeing it. You know, there are a lot more details today on that particular story.
SPEAKER 01 :
It was landing at Newark and it hit us. It didn’t just hit the tractor trailer. The guy was driving. It literally also hit a streetlight. And it injured the truck’s driver. So, yeah, the driver was injured. I mean, I don’t think he’s, like, in critical, but he was injured. No one on the plane was hurt, but the guy was just driving, and he could hear the engines, and you could tell that he could hear them. And then the plane, the landing gears are what hit the truck.
SPEAKER 07 :
Watch the shadow of the plane come into the cab of his truck where you’re like, oh, boom.
SPEAKER 01 :
So, yeah, the landing gear is what struck the truck. And I don’t. Oh my gosh. So the plane hits literally a light pole. And then the guy’s truck, Ooh, he sustained non-life threatening injuries and was taken to an area hospital. That’s all we know. Uh, he was heading North. He was delivering bread products when it happened. And they said that the jet, it Boeing seven 67, it was going 160 miles an hour when it crossed the New Jersey turnpike just outside of the airport. And, uh, They said that it was the tire from the landing gear and the underside of the plane that hit it. And then the pole, by the way, it hit the pole, it hit a tractor trailer, and then the pole also struck a Jeep. How does that happen?
SPEAKER 07 :
That would mean he’s literally feet from hitting, that must have been a bridge this guy was on, right? Or some sort of road. So that’s how close to the ground or the bridge structure that this plane was?
SPEAKER 01 :
I’m curious if they even knew that they hit the truck. It said, oh, the aircraft landed safely. Taxi to the gate normally and no passengers or crew were injured. That was United’s statement. I think the guy in the truck has an objection to that. Wow. They said that the it’s runway 29. I’m reading from this is from New York Times runway 29 where the plane landed. It starts less than 400 feet from the edge of the New Jersey turnpike. They say it’s not always used, but when wind conditions are right, it can see numerous landings and that can startle drivers as planes pass at low altitudes over the highway. So a DFW. We have a bridge. One of the runways becomes a bridge that goes over the entry into DFW. If you’re coming, I think, from what, the north side? South side. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And we’ve seen that a lot. And that’s a pretty big runway that goes over. But I’ve never, that’s crazy. I wonder if that’s the first time anything like that’s ever happened. The folks who make the program possible. It is the good people over at Burn a Gun. And I’ve told you a ton of times that I have no problem carrying. I have no problem using lethal force to protect myself or my loved ones. But I also realize, too, that sometimes you are barred from exercising your Second Amendment rights due to municipal restrictions or private property or what have you. So as a result, you need to be smart and diversify what you use to defend yourself. And this is where a burner gun can come in. Now, they have different models, but I need you to disregard all of that just to hear about the CL, because the CL is the one that actually makes the most sense for this purpose. It stands for compact launcher. It’s roughly the size of an iPhone. But here’s the thing. When you are carrying a taser or stun gun, you got maybe one or two rounds. The Berna CL shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away. And it has a 15 round shot capacity per cartridge and it carries the whole cartridge. So that’s a big difference in terms of opportunity to get to safety for sure. Made right here in the U.S. of A. And it’s an accessible option if you are one. Maybe you’re a college kid, you know, and you’re living away from home and you’re not old enough to carry it, but you’ve got to walk to your dorm, et cetera. Or, you know, maybe you work at a hospital or something, whatever. It doesn’t care about gun-free zone signs because it’s not a gun. You can also, you don’t have any background checks. There’s no additional fees. You order it online and have it sent right to your front porch. Visit Burna.com slash Dana. Get your Burna gun today. That’s B-U-R-N-A, Burna.com slash Dana.

SPEAKER 07 :
And now all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s quick five.
SPEAKER 01 :
I went long last segment, so I apologize for that, but I will make it up to you at some point. All right. Indoor cave direct. What is an indoor cave director? What? In court over a man’s death. I thought all caves were in. I don’t know. Company director. This is in Lancaster. I don’t know the stories. I don’t know. We’re going to come back to that. I just want to talk about the guy who got in trouble because he took balls like actual tennis balls on a flight. But it was over in Britain. And I don’t think that they know what tennis balls are. and he got in trouble for it, I don’t get it.
