SPEAKER 15 :
And over the next couple of years, our friendship blossomed. He ended up being the primary architect of my unification with President Trump, which I… Which I did my endorsement at his rally, at the Turning Point rally in Scottsdale. And he was the one who put the sparklers on the stage when I showed that. He made a big show of it.
SPEAKER 36 :
So that was last night at the Kennedy Center where they were having one of the first of the vigils. And that, of course, as you know, was RFK Jr. who was talking about this. Welcome to the program. It’s Monday. It’s a new week. The horrors persist, and so must we. And we’ve got a number of things to bring you up to speed on, especially if you were kind of like me. And you just needed to turn it off and touch grass. I tried really, really hard over the weekend. But it’s one of those things where you do… I think it’s very important for you to get offline. Too many people spend too much time online and especially arguing with randos, idiots, on social media. So the… Latest with this, as you know, there’s going to be they’re going to have the first court appearance of the killer coming up and more information about the murderer of Charlie Kirk is now becoming public, including the killer’s furry twink tranny boyfriend. It almost sounds like a special Christmas toy, does it not? Oh, it’s the Polly Pocket. It’s the furry twink tranny boyfriend. Say that a million times fast. This is what the left was trying to gaslight you into believing that this guy. Oh, no, there’s no trans element to it. The only reason also that I believe this guy whose name is Lance Twiggs. The only reason I believe that he cooperated at all with police is so he could avoid accessory charges or giving shelter. The what is it the charge of your sheltering someone that is the head of the National Manhunt for him? He apparently is described by members of his family as super far left. One relative said, quote, I did not want him around my personal family. He’s not a healthy person. He is very angry with anyone who is supportive of conservative ideals and Christian values. This guy was apparently really, really, really far left, had very violent ideas about And it’s very interesting, his relationship with this killer. And of course, he was trans. He was living as a trans person pretending to be a woman. So that’s a huge blow for the left who spent the better part of the weekend trying to convince everybody, oh, no, it’s not that at all. It just isn’t that at all. It’s not that it’s he’s not this isn’t trans. This is more right wing disinformation. That’s, you know, kind of not kind of that’s exactly how they were trying to present all of this. It’s exactly how they were presenting it. And it’s there’s no denying it. There is absolutely no denying it. The links are enormous. This 22-year-old, I don’t care if he came from a conservative family. He wasn’t conservative. He was described by people who knew him as being very far left. He was devoted to Antifa. The media wants to show you photos of this guy from like 10 years ago. But then if you look at photos of him from like four years ago, then, you know, it’s pretty rough. He’s a big Antifa devotee. He espoused their viewpoints. And apparently they both were into furries, him and his twink boyfriend. They were both into furries. They had a furry sex life, apparently. It’s disgusting. I want to vomit everywhere, but that’s the news. So it’s pretty difficult to say. I mean, you’re lying to people if you’re saying that this doesn’t have anything to do with it. And so the… The news that’s out and what’s been confirmed and released by law enforcement seems to be along the lines of this trend came. This trend of far left trans Tifa. Far left trans Tifa. So this, you know. I don’t know. I don’t have any words for it because it’s it’s exactly as we were saying in the media, even up till that point has been have been pushing back and gaslighting everybody about it. This is I got a couple of other we get some audio that we want to play with you. This is this is the kid. This is one of the former high school classmates of the guy who killed Kirk. And even they were saying, yeah, something was off about him even back then. Listen, 13.
SPEAKER 31 :
I went to school with this Tyler Robinson kid. I’ll show y’all. That’s him right there. Tyler Robinson. I’m not trying to like clout chase make this about me. But I’m not gonna say I knew this kid really well. I didn’t know him very well at all. But I definitely saw him for like three straight years in high school. And the best way I could describe him is just like a Reddit kid. I don’t know. I feel like If you were in high school around that same time and even probably now like 2018 and then like, you know those kinds of kids But that’s exactly what he was All i’m going to say is this is the kind of that happens when you spend way too much time online And all of a sudden your beliefs are all the way this way or all the way this way And you do some dramatic to please these people that are not your friends Interesting interesting Very interesting
SPEAKER 36 :
He even knew then. Isn’t that how it always is, Cain? Audio sung by 14, a neighbor explaining how he knew that Kirk’s killer and the furry trans twink, he knew they were a couple. This is 14.
SPEAKER 16 :
There’s some published reports out there that this individual, the roommate, may have been transitioning. Did that correlate with what you saw? Yeah, definitely.
SPEAKER 06 :
So he was going to have an operation to turn into a woman?
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, yeah. And I think he’s getting ready for that.
SPEAKER 34 :
In what way do you see that?
SPEAKER 16 :
I remember them talking about a doctor’s appointment. It was about… about two weeks ago, I would say. And they were kissing?
SPEAKER 05 :
Yeah. Where did you see them kissing?
SPEAKER 16 :
Just coming out. I was riding with my bike, so I didn’t see the whole thing, but yeah, I saw them.
SPEAKER 28 :
And when did you hear them talking about a doctor’s appointment?
SPEAKER 16 :
Um, I would say about the same time that they came out. So that one time, yeah.
SPEAKER 08 :
And where were you standing for that?
SPEAKER 16 :
Um, I was just riding by here. Okay.
SPEAKER 08 :
And you were able to hear snippets of their conversation?
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER 08 :
But you were sure that they were a couple, but you have only seen them together once?
SPEAKER 16 :
Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, the way I mean, random guys definitely don’t kiss.
SPEAKER 36 :
So, yeah, the media wanted him to be a straight, a straight dude, a straight white Christian mega dude. They desperately wanted him to be that. And he was just a white dude. That’s it. That’s it. So they they I we’re going to come back to this because these developments keep I mean, obviously, as the investigation is ongoing, the developments that are released more and more. And then, of course, we have this public appearance at some point, the first court appearance of this killer. And we’ll follow all of that as well. In the meantime, I didn’t watch that. The Emmys last night and we’re going to get to some of that because apparently they didn’t mention the Kirk assassination at all and they ended up doing what Hollywood celebrities do preening and celebrating themselves and include they go out there including Spanish socialist Javier Bardem goes out there and does all the free Palestine stuff. They want to accuse, you know, they back violent rhetoric and they want to accuse everybody else of being violent when they themselves embrace violence. I just thought that was that was incredibly that was so reflective of who they are. I don’t have any I don’t really watch TV and I really definitely now don’t plan to continue. I don’t plan to do it. I don’t plan to watch any television, especially after I mean that not even to not even think nothing. I mean, they go all out about Harvey Milk, but they say nothing about this actual. There were other tributes, though. NASCAR, they had a driver who dedicated his win to Kirk. This was NASCAR driver Christopher Bell at Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee. He dedicated his win to Kirk. You had Morgan Whalen, who… also stopped his concert to say nice words to Erica Kirk, the widow. And she also spoke out. She spoke out Friday. She gave an address and I thought it was very, it was very emotional. And I like the fact that she didn’t go out and call for unity because you can’t unify with people who are celebrating the murder of your husband and nor should you be expected to. It was she I mean, you can tell she’s in such anguish, obviously. She’s in absolute anguish. But I appreciate that she didn’t go out because that time has passed and she she got the tone. She got the tone. There were some people trying to criticize her for it. Amazingly, they don’t like the way that a grieving widow responds to your ideology shooting her husband. Oh, my goodness. What did you expect to receive a bouquet? Just asinine. Absolutely asinine. You know, the other thing I noticed, too, is that Apple, because a lot of this stuff has been on Blue Sky. I don’t have Blue Sky. I don’t have an account over there. I have no plans to ever create an account over there. But apparently it is an absolute cesspool of hate and fetishizing violence in the wake of Kirk’s slaying. Apple kicked Parler off of its platform. And no, I’m saying, can I finish my sentence? Apple kicked Parler off of its platform and kicked Parler off of the store for everything that Blue Sky is actually doing now. Think about that. All of the threats… the raging, raging violence fetishism that’s happening over there. Didn’t Parler, wasn’t that all of the accusations that were against Parler? Wasn’t that the, basically all of the claims against Parler was that, oh, it’s a breeding ground for violence and violent speech, et cetera, et cetera, whatever, however the left likes to phrase it. But that’s what Blue Sky is doing right now. It tells you everything that you need to know, does it not? Coming up, we’re going to talk about the firings continue. It’s not cancel culture. But a friend of mine made a very good point. The list of people that were celebrating Charlie Kirk’s murder and how there’s now a list online. And these are people who did it publicly. And we talked about this Friday. They did it publicly. They had their names and their professions and they were very stupid about it. And now their names are on a list and people are suspecting them of being violence. Hey, guess what left? You guys finally got the universal background checks you were demanding. How does it feel? Our partners over at Preborn, a great organization that wants to save lives. And since Roe v. Wade was overturned, there have been tons of abortion clinics that have been closed. It doesn’t matter, really, with that, the brick and mortar, because the abortion pill has taken their place, and it now accounts for more than 60% of all abortions. There is hope, though. Preborn is rescuing lives, about 200 babies a day. They love the mothers. They show them their child through an ultrasound. And when a mom sees her baby and hears the baby’s heartbeat, everything changes. That baby’s chance at life doubles. And this is where you come in. Twenty eight dollars provides an ultrasound. That’s less than a cost of dinner outright. And you’re literally giving a baby a chance at life and woman a chance of being a mother. And you’re disrupting the narrative that society constantly pounds into women’s heads. about them being too weak to be able to handle an unexpected pregnancy. Abortions are continuing to rise and Preborn is expanding their life-affirming care in the darkest corners of the nation to meet that and help hurting women. Your tax-deductible donation of 15,000 places an ultrasound machine in a needy women’s center. Donate today. Visit preborn.com slash Dana. That’s preborn.com slash Dana.

SPEAKER 36 :
What is this study supposed to be telling me? The headline sucks out loud. I guess they’re trying to say that boredom can be OK. Great job study. They’re so glad that we spent 30 seconds on that. Moving on. We got we have others. We have other headlines to get into. There’s there’s a lot of discussion and we’re going to have to touch on this in the days to come because I have a handful of headlines about this. the embrace of AI within the admin and the tension that it’s causing within the administration. This is going to come to a head and we’re going to have to have a big conversation about it as well. Let’s see. In D.C., they have a bar that basically bans phones. They do have Polaroid cameras if you’re insisting upon commemorating your night out with a photo. It’s the first phone-free bar. I don’t know how I feel about that. You like it? Yeah. I think it’s kind of stupid and gimmicky. I mean, your drinks better be damn good. Well, like, what if you have to have your phone for emergencies and stuff? Like, what if your kid’s like, oh my gosh, I microwaved tinfoil. What do I do?
SPEAKER 27 :
I think if it’s an emergency, right, the bar would help you. Or you can just go and get your phone if you need it.
SPEAKER 36 :
I mean, is it really that bad?
SPEAKER 27 :
I mean, I think it’s important to pull away yourself from the phone and all of that.
SPEAKER 36 :
I mean, I have no problem if I’m out with friends putting my phone down. I don’t need a bar to be like, put your phone. Because to me, that just seems like nannyism and pretentious. And everybody’s going for a gimmick.
SPEAKER 27 :
And I just… Also, what do they do with your phone?
SPEAKER 36 :
Do you just not bring it in? It’s not my jam, man. It’s not my jam. Oh, please let this be aliens. Scientists say they can’t explain a signal they just detected from beyond our galaxy. Please. Oh, please. It’s my birthday month. Please, please, please, please, please, please be aliens. Blah, blah, blah. Gamma ray burst. That’s not what it is. It’s aliens. They said they’ve detected a gamma ray burst and it defies explanation and it keeps repeating multiple times over and over in the single course of a day. Wow, that sounds like a message from aliens. I would like to talk to them because all these people on this rock are on my last damn nerve. Let’s see here. It’s true. I’m not going to lie. It is true. That’s why I want the aliens. Take me with you. France’s economy tumbles. Ooh, Fitch downgraded. They got downgraded their credit rating. Fitch downgraded the credit rating of France. I’m really sure that their super far left government had nothing to do with it, right? I mean, that’s what happens when you go full on socialist. Their taxes over there are so insane. If we lived over there, over half of our income would be claimed by the French government. That’s how crazy their taxes are. That’s not a joke. That’s not an exaggeration. That’s exactly how it is. Goodness. Also, they said now there’s a single exercise that can actually, they’re talking about upper body workouts to, I guess, kill cancer cells. Single exercises that can kill cancer cells. You just get up and walk. You get up and walk. We’ve got a lot more on the way. Stick with us. The folks over at Super Beats. We’ve told you about the Super Beat Chews.

SPEAKER 24 :
There is violent extremism on both sides. It is not proportionate. And in order to have an honest conversation about what led to this moment, that has to focus in part on the left.
SPEAKER 12 :
I’m glad you mentioned that it’s not unique to one side or one party. Charlie Kirk was not a saint. He said two years ago, it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so we can have the Second Amendment. But his murder makes this feel like a very dangerous time.
SPEAKER 36 :
First, his full quote on that was talking about all of the other tradeoffs that you make for the conveniences of something. We have automobile deaths that greatly exceed those ever, even from criminal usage of firearms. But you don’t have people going out there talking about banning guns to say nothing of medicinal malpractice or errors during surgeries. No one’s calling for the banning of any of those medical innovations, etc. Get right, Howard Kurtz. If you’re going to sit here and take a deuce on someone’s memory, at least accurately quote them. This is why don’t ask me to unify with these people. I have no desire to unify with these people. I have no desire at all whatsoever. Now, for all of the people on the left who just literally fetishize themselves into a stupor over violence, that’s not what we’re not like you. We’re not calling for violence unless you F.A.F.O. And then absolutely we will return in kind. But. I’m done being civil. I’m done being nice to these people because they want you dead. There’s two things that I’ve learned in the past five years. And a friend of mine made this remark. COVID showed you which of your friends wanted to control you and wanted to browbeat you into submission. And the responses to Charlie Kirk’s killing shows you which of your friends want you dead. Because all of these people going out there saying, well, he had, you know, he had extremist beliefs. No, he didn’t. What beliefs specifically were extremists? I share his beliefs. The things I don’t agree with him on, I thought he was a little to the left, quite frankly. But that’s irrelevant. He did not have extreme views. He had views that you all share. Are you all extremists? Are you? I’m not an extremist because I agree with his viewpoints. Are you an extremist because you agree with his viewpoints? And that’s the thing. These people that are out there trying to justify his slaying by saying that, well, he had some extremist views. Well, then you agree with them. So are they are they justifying your future slaying? This is what really angers me. With all of this, these people on the left have never, ever once had to consider security for an event. They haven’t. I’ll never forget. I was at an event in Los Angeles and it was supposed to be this big bipartisan thing. And I actually had to have a security detail because, you know, I mean, it was, you know, day of the week that ended in Y. So it’s, you know, there was always something that was happening. And I remember, who was it? I can’t remember who it was. She sometimes did stuff on MSNBC. Sally, what’s her face? I can’t remember. She just like walked in with some friends. I was like, oh, you have to have security. Like, yeah, I actually do. Must be nice to not. It was like my only response. But that’s my point. They don’t have to worry about that stuff because we don’t go and, you know, shoot people in the neck for disagreeing with us. We don’t go and shoot into a church because they don’t affirm our fantastical view of gender. We don’t do anything like that. That’s what they do. So I get really aggravated when people try to do a both sides ism because there isn’t. I actually was invited to participate in a Second Amendment debate. And a gun control city, and I don’t know if I’m going to accept it. I’m not going to be doing any outdoor events either. That’s gone. Will not be doing another outdoor event. And I will not be doing any event that is not completely necessary. And I’ve actually curtailed after Parkland. I had to curtail a lot of the stuff that I accepted anyway because of the violent nut job left. So all of these people who think that there’s an anyway, both sides, I am so envious of the peaceful little kitten and sunshine life that you lead, where you don’t have to worry about a violent leftist killing you in front of your family because you disagree with them on policy. You coddled pieces of excrement. How nice it is for you to live that life. And it’s not just I am in no way unique. Everybody who is my contemporary, everybody that I know who is in this industry literally has to go through the same thing. I have a very good friend who appears on television who had to go to court and get a no contact order for a politically a violent, politically motivated stalker. I had another friend who messaged me wanting to wanting to help with security because they don’t feel comfortable now traveling to do discussions. And they wanted to know what I could advise or who I could introduce them to to help with security. This is literally a daily thing that people on our side in the media have to live with. For all of the bitching and moaning from the left about the sanctity of press, they don’t agree with it. Because they don’t agree with the free press and they don’t agree with the free exchange of ideas. And they don’t agree with the First Amendment. Which is why they want to disarm you so you don’t even have the second. So I’m leaving my church. And I’m not going back. My last sermon at my church was this Sunday. And our pastor, who is a good preacher when he doesn’t talk about politics at all. No one wants to hear about politics. So before anyone gets on their self-appointed high horse, let me save you the energy. It’s not about politics. It’s about when they do get into politics. You had a monumental culture shifting tragedy that occurred last week. Very similar to the monumental culture shifting incident that happened, the tragedy that almost happened with Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, which our pastor did not mention at all whatsoever at the time nor any time after. Something that he acknowledged in his remarks yesterday. And he goes out there. And he talks about how, you know, violence is bad, bad, bad. And then he starts, what about is a name? What about is a mean? And he brings up Melissa Hortman and her husband, the Hortmans who were killed by a Tim Walsh appointee, who a bunch of no king stuff was found in his car, amongst some other interesting things. If he was in any way on the right at one point, he sure as hell wasn’t anymore. But that was used as an example of, oh, see, it’s equal to this. It’s both sides. That’s how it was presented. Oh, here’s this one thing that we found that actually technically really wasn’t a leftist. But we’re going to use that because this was a Democrat that was targeted and it’s all we have. So, you know, look, both sides. It’s not both sides. He didn’t mention the two attempted Trump assassinations and he admit he acknowledged he’s like, I didn’t mention it, you know, etc. He definitely comes from the left side of things on this. If he wanted to be accurate, he would have brought up the Occupy Wall Street violence. He would have brought up the Antifa violence. He would have brought up the numerous trans Tifa members killing kids in schools. He would have brought up the attempted assassination of Brett Kavanaugh. He would have brought up the two the slayings of the two embassy workers in D.C. He would have brought up Rand Paul getting nearly beaten to death. To say nothing of people in his own congregation who have had their own security issues because of violent leftists. So when he started this, he wasn’t only tone deaf, it was offensively, he was offensively omitting actual real things that show this is not whataboutism. Our whole point for talking about this is to make it stop. The left’s whole point in bringing it up is to justify it so they can continue. And that was pretty much the extent of it. Oh, he gave the words. It’s very, yes, it’s very upsetting with Charlie Kirk, blah, blah, blah. You know, but this has to stop. And then he gave the example of Hortman and I’m done. I am done with culturally insensitive shepherds who are more interested in making money from butts and pews than they are about saving the souls in the pews. I am done with churches who spend more time on the show of worship rather than the worship of worship. I don’t care about your new campuses. I don’t care about your new drum kits. I don’t care about your new swanky lights. I don’t care about any of that stuff. And the problem is that because he’s a good preacher’s preacher, but when he gets into this stuff, I cannot get over that to hear him anymore. I can’t. It felt like a betrayal. So no, I did not have a good weekend. I did not have a good Sunday. And there are a lot of Christians that didn’t either who walked out of their churches because their pastors decided to be completely culturally tone deaf. How are you as a pastor? I don’t care what side of the aisle. Get over yourselves. All you people who have to qualify everything with, well, I didn’t agree with them. No one cares what you thought, Francis. No one knew you existed five seconds ago. No one cares. If you don’t have the humanity to say, you know what, that’s bad and it should never have happened, then do the world a favor and shut your mouth. But this, it felt like a betrayal. And I know I wasn’t the only one. There were some thankfully good preachers out there. I don’t understand how you have this completely earth shattering thing that happens. This nation shifting event. And you go on with your regularly canned sermon about diversity. Which you’ve been talking about ad nauseum for God knows how long in this church. To the point where you make an idol of it. I don’t know how you can’t see someone who is literally the nice guy. He was the nice guy. He was the nicest one. and not think, wow, I’m going to give a sermon about the power of good debate and the power of the goodwill gesture and the good faith gesture of of earnest discussion and witnessing to people on college campuses. I don’t know how you don’t just do the work and chuck out the canned speech and talk about that. Oh, my gosh, I guess it means you have to compliment someone who’s on the right and who voted for Trump. Do you think that Jesus is going to be asking people who they voted for at the pearly gates? Newsflash, he’s not. Do you think that he’s going to be evaluating the R or D after your name when you go up to heaven? Newsflash, he’s not. Is he going to be looking at whether or not you supported the killing of people over ideas? Yeah, he is. And you can’t even bring yourself to mention it in a sermon. And then you wonder, why don’t people go to the church? And then for you non-Catholic pastors out there, you’re wondering why kids are going to the Catholic church. It’s because you suck. It’s because you’re failing your congregation. You’re betraying the parishioners in the pews. That’s why. They’re tired of this Bethel music garbage and this Hillsong garbage. And they’re tired of worship feeling like a concert. They’re tired of you constantly peddling your books. That’s why. I’m not Catholic. I don’t care about differences of religion, but I’m really tired of people pushing their excuses onto everyone else as a justification for their own errors. So yes, I’m leaving my church. I’ll find another, but I’m going to find one where the pastor actually spends more time in the Bible and less time looking in the mirror. I’m done I’m not the only one a lot of us feel that way too we have more to come as we roll The people who make the program possible. It is the folks over at All Family Pharmacy. I cannot say enough good things. Oh, my gosh. They can never go out of business. I will actually physically riot if they do. All Family Pharmacy saved me on more than one occasion. First time was when we were hosting people for Thanksgiving and days before Thanksgiving. I could feel it. I was getting strep throat. I’ve had it before. So I ordered antibiotics because there was no way I was getting into my GP. There was no way I was going to be able to get an urgent care. Everybody was sick. There was a line. So made my appointment, got my antibiotics overnighted from All Family Pharmacy, started them, and my symptoms already started dissipating. By the time I went in to see my doctor, he was going to give me the prescription literally for the same thing that I already got from the other doctor at All Family Pharmacy and had overnighted. you can get immediate relief of your immediate needs.

SPEAKER 26 :
Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States.
SPEAKER 28 :
But as somebody who understands history, when I see ICE, I see slave patrols. Now, I never lived through the slave patrol period. But if you know the history of policing in this country, then you understand that they were born out of slave patrols.
SPEAKER 36 :
Wait, so enforcing immigration laws like slaves. So if I bust up into her house, so I can go to Jasmine Crockett’s house then and use her stuff and hang out in her house and basically take over her property. But if she calls police, then she’s calling slave patrols. Right? Because that’s the exact same thing. Right? The exact same thing. That’s… I’m so glad that she’s been redistricted out of her seat. So glad that she’s been redistricted out of her seat. So glad. So incredibly glad. Because I can’t take much more of that. I think she’s really trying to be like the new Maxine Waters.
SPEAKER 27 :
I can’t think of imagine that being your your North Star, her Maxine.
SPEAKER 36 :
You know what? We need more Maxine Waters. Yeah, nobody. Nobody said that. So coming up, a number of things to touch on, because we’ve got the well, there’s a Washington Post reporter who was fired. Because she was celebrating murder. You know, it’s your employers really don’t like it when you’re out there very publicly celebrating murder. And it kind of goes against, you know, their good faith engagement with you as an employee. And so a lot of people, they want to terminate that relationship because they don’t want an employee like that having an association with or representing their business while they behave that way. And the left, because they never want to ever embrace accountability for their actions, want to call that cancel culture because they believe that that’s the same thing as going back 15 years and finding some rando when they were 16 years old’s tweet and trying to ruin their lives over it if it was a distasteful joke. So we’re going to discuss some of that. We’re also going to get into one more thing about the church thing because I’m not done with it. You know, all of these pastors that don’t want to talk about the cultural aspect of this with the Kirk thing, you don’t forfeit your position by acknowledging how heinous it was without qualification. But you guys got to stop pretending, you pastors out there, that leftist violence isn’t a threat to the church itself. You have to stop pretending that leftist ideology isn’t a threat to the church. Have you seen what transgenderism is doing to the youth? Have you seen what abortion on demand funded by taxpayers has done to the family? Have you seen what the assault on fathers is doing to the family, the American unit, which is literally the keystone to this republic? And you guys want to sit up there and not say anything because you’re worried about making some delicate sensitivities mad in your congregation? Are you pastors or are you sheep? If you want people to go to the church, then be the church that’s for the people. We have a lot more. Can you tell I’m very upset about this still? We have a lot more coming up. Second hour on the way. Stick with us. So apparently we have to stop falling for the whole higher thread counting because it doesn’t necessarily mean better sheets. That’s fake news, apparently. It’s like believing that you use like 10% of your brain. So the secret isn’t thread count, it’s thread quality. And this is where Bull & Branch has won a lot of folks over at yours truly. They use the best organic cotton. End of. I mean, these are sheets that feel incredible, like the moment you take them out of the box. So the first night that you put them on, you can tell right away that they’re softer, they’re cooler, and they have a great weight. It’s like kind of having a five-star hotel room in your own house. And I’ll tell you something else. The sheets get better every time that you’ve washed them. I’ve washed mine countless times and they just keep getting softer. You can’t do that with cheap sheets because they totally fall apart. Bowl and branch, they get more luxurious. So you’ll sleep better and you’re kind of kind of feel like a spoiled brat, but it’s okay. I’m not going to go back to the old sheets. Once you try them, you’re not going to either.

SPEAKER 14 :
When I represent a state like Pennsylvania, that keeps you honest and you always can’t forget that a lot of Americans happen to disagree with you. That does not mean that they are fascists or now they want to shred the Constitution.
SPEAKER 03 :
When you hear some Democrats saying Trump is acting like an autocrat,
SPEAKER 14 :
Yeah, no, that’s the thing. If you actually compare him to an actual autocrat, that is not just that. Now, last night, for example, people were protesting about, oh, that’s Hitler, Hitler thing. You just don’t ever, ever compare anyone to Hitler and those kinds of extreme things. Now, look what happened to Charlie Kirk. I mean, that man was shot. Now, we have to turn the temperature down. It’s like we can’t compare people to these kinds of figures in history. And this is not an autocrat. This is a product of a democratic… election. It’s like I participated in that it was safe and it was secure. We lost and the America people put us in the minority. And now that’s that’s democracy. And I revere democracy.
SPEAKER 36 :
John Futterman is the last remaining sane Democrat. The last room what he needs is come on over to the Republican Party. Like we can scoot over scoot over, you can come sit over here. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. We’re at the top of the second hour. He’s right because words have meanings. I will never forget. I had a friend that is no we’re no longer friends now because it’s at that point where during the Tesla stuff. This individual was like all on Facebook going, oh, my gosh, Trump’s such a fascist. Elon Musk is a fascist. They’re all fascists using that word over and over again. And I’m like, I think that you two things you need to ask for for Christmas, a personality and a dictionary, because that’s not what that word means. Not everyone who disagrees with you is Hitler. Not everyone who disagrees with you is a Nazi. Not everyone who disagrees with you is an autocrat. Not everyone who disagrees with you is a fascist. But that’s what the left does, because they they they they think that. By tainting you that way, they will just engender unquestioned hate. Actually, somebody made this point. Let me pull this up. They wrote, the film Invasion of the Body Snatchers provides a good metaphor for modern leftism. Whenever the aliens discover a real human being, they scream and point, summoning all of the other aliens to kill the person. And this is what the leftist is doing when he yells fascist. It’s an allegory of modern times. It really is. That’s exactly what they do. Fascist, fascist. So everyone unquestionably goes, oh, yes, we totally hate him. He’s a fascist. Because people don’t want to be associated with a fascist or fascism. They’re good people. They don’t want to be associated with fascists. And then you have the people who maybe aren’t good people, but they’re just too dumb to be very bad. And they’re like, oh, my gosh, he said fascist. I don’t want to be a fascist. I’m just going to go along with it. I’m not going to question it. There are people who would rather be seen as going along with fascism the momentum and the crowd because they think that is what looks good. Not being a disruption to that momentum is what is good. And there are a lot of people like that that are on the left that get, to me, they’re no, I don’t make any, I don’t see any distinctions between them. They’re all bad. But that’s what, I mean, when you constantly call someone that and his, I mean, honestly, do they, I would challenge a leftist. You honestly believe that Donald Trump is just like Hitler? In what way? In what way? Does it make any sense? I had someone say that the people that were going after the leftists that were celebrating Charlie Kirk’s assassination, there was a leftist who said, oh, these would be the same people that would call the Nazis on the Franks and Anne Frank’s family. And I made the remark, I said, oh, you know what? And yes, the leftists killed them too. Be smart about disagreement. Be smart about history, which the left is not. I mean, we’ve lived with us for our whole lives. This is all I’ve ever known them to do. Oh my gosh, like Bush-Hitler. Oh my gosh, this has been going way before even the Tea Party movement. When you do that for 20 years, you will have weak people that start to believe it. And then if you’re able to in some way, misrepresent difference of opinion as being so existential of a crisis that it’s Hitler level, then how do you think that, how are you inviting people to respond to that? And they do it because it’s incitement without really looking like incitement. That’s the whole reason why they do it. I’m just so tired of it. I’m glad, I mean, at least, you know, he’s the one, Fetterman’s the only one who’s pushing back on this stuff. He is literally the only one. He’s the only one. I don’t know if I want to play this Bill Maher audio because I feel like Bill Maher is so disingenuous. Bill Maher was part of the problem. I spent with me after Parkland because he amplified. Let me just tell you my problem with Bill Maher. I think Bill Maher is culpable. And I think he just says stuff like this now to cover his ass. And I don’t get people on the right who are so eager to get some sort of fame by association that they run over and fall all over him and slobber all over his ankles. It’s disgusting. Like, stop debasing yourself by this for crying out loud. But I’ve been mad at him ever since Parkland because after Parkland happened, we had a torrent of abuse and threats and people who actually followed up on the threats and all kinds of stuff. And there was this like weird pervert from Hollywood. I’d never met this guy in my life. And he comes up out of nowhere. And he’s like, oh, yeah, Dana Lash tried to do a sitcom with me. I’m like, what? Keep in mind that I literally had representation at UTA, one of the biggest agencies in the world. I would not chase some nobody Z-list showrunner, which I found out who he was, to try to pitch them something. It didn’t even make any sense. He was like, yeah, she tried to pitch me a hot mom sitcom. And Daily Mail ran with it. They were no one ever asked me for comment. I could not pick this guy out of a lineup. I’ve never met him in my life. And he just made stuff up to like try to get attention off of a tragedy by smearing me. And Bill Maher literally repeated it on his show. Adding fuel to the fire so Bill Maher can kiss my ass and all of the people who are so eager to be popular on the right who run over to him hoping that he showcases like showers them with some kind of affection. You’re just as bad. You’re all fame whores. You’re all just as bad. I can’t. I was going to play this. I’m like, no, he doesn’t deserve it. I’m not because I don’t give him any credit because he contributed to this so much. And are you just now realizing what you did? Are you just now realizing how bad you helped make it for so many people? Spare me. Yeah, I’m done being nice about all of this stuff. And I think it’s past time. Just me. So the reactions to this. Do we have James Lankford’s? soundbite I wanted to play this so he what oh yeah 41,000 sorry I want you to listen to this audio soundbite 41 this is James Langford who’s what network was in I don’t really care he was he was telling people that oh we we have to have a civility etc basically unity whatever let’s just listen turmoil that was happening across the country with assassinations we had two assassination attempts last year
SPEAKER 09 :
On President Trump, we had the assassination and home invasion of some Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota. We had the governor of Pennsylvania, that his home was set on fire. And now just a person, literally Charlie Kirk, what he did was he traveled around campuses to have dialogue with people who disagreed, who want to talk about politics. This is supposed to be how we work things out as a country, literally is to be able to have open dialogue about all kinds of things. He is assassinated in front of thousands of people. Leaving his two children and his wife alone. So it’s incredibly painful time for the nation. And I would push back on all of us and say we should live out our faith, the principles of our faith all of the time on it, even how we respond in anger in moments like this. But also to be able to ask each other, why can’t we at least talk about things where we disagree?
SPEAKER 36 :
What are you talking about? We have been talking about that. Have you been under a rock? We were talking about things on which we disagree. That’s literally what Kirk was doing was going to college campuses and having very peaceful and friendly discussions with people on issues on which they disagree. So what’s your point? It just seems like a bunch of word salad. What hot take is that? I mean, look, if you I’m so tired about the most civility. We were doing that. And guess what? They killed the guy who was doing it. We were having those civil discussions and they shot him in the neck. So spare us this whole preening about, oh, well, we’ve got to have, you know, open dialogue. We have to commit to it. We’ve been committing to it. I committed to it in Parkland at the town hall and people told me I should be burned. Other people on the right have committed to it. And they’ve literally, I’ve watched Ben Shapiro have events canceled because people were rioting. I’ve watched other speakers be pushed into janitorial closets because the riots got out of control. What the hell are you talking about, James Langford? We have been committing to civil discourse. And they are violent over it. So why don’t you look to the people who are being violent over it and give them this whole possibility rhetoric? Good grief. Read the room. You sentient turd. Read the room. These people. I’m not about giving any yardage at all whatsoever. I’m done with it. And a lot of people feel the same way. Mike Johnson needs to get off his backside here and do something about some of this stuff. I don’t know if you guys saw this. This was absolutely egregious. This was Ilhan Omar. She reposted this video and there are screenshots showing multiple screenshots that prove she absolutely reposted that video then tried to pretend she didn’t. The screenshots exist and it shows that she literally reposted it. Audio Somebody 27. This is the video.
SPEAKER 13 :
Charlie Kirk’s dead, and before his body got cold, the far right propped his corpse up as a cudgel for their holy war. I’ve never seen more people within the same sentence both condemn political violence and then immediately call for political violence against their opposition. Don’t be fooled. These people don’t give a single f***. about charlie kirk they are just using his death to further their christophascist agenda and before i continue i need to say that this revisionist history about who kirk was is just as perplexing i’m seeing all these heartfelt statements coming from democratic politicians and celebrities applauding kirk as some bastion of free speech and debate kirk was a reprehensible human being he enacted his political agenda by preying upon weak-minded people she reposted this i’m not playing the whole thing she reposted this
SPEAKER 36 :
She reposted it. And then she wants to act like she didn’t do it, that she had none of this. She didn’t do any of this. Where’s Mike Johnson on this issue? Where’s the speaker? Because she shared the video. Where is he at on this? Because at this point, this is a sitting lawmaker glorifying murder. Remember, they couldn’t even condemn her when she was posting straight up, straight undiluted anti-Semitism on social media. Are they not going to do anything with her? No, deport her ass. I’m done with her. This brother screwing charlatan. Done with it. We got more on the way as we roll towards headlines. Our partners who help bring you the program and make it all possible. It’s our very good friends over at Caltech, the PR57 team. which is one of their newest ones. It’s a 5.7, chambered at 5.7, rotary barrel pistol. It’s the lightest 5.7 that’s on the market because guns save lives. And I don’t want to hear people talk about firearms without talking about how many times firearms are used illegally in defense of the innocent. It is three times that of criminal usage. And this is what even the Obama DOJ and investigative report into this discovered back in 2013 and again in 2016. So with the PR57, this is the lightest 5.7 that’s on the market. Like I said, chambered in 5.7. It has a unique top-loading design that replaces traditional magazines with actual stripper clips. That gives it a slimmer carry profile, a 20 plus 1 capacity. The rotary barrel also contributes to the light weightness of it all. It has great trigger, just absolute low recoil, ease of use and accuracy. Easiest field strip available. MSRP makes it affordable, only $399. It’s from Kel-Tec, made in America, family-owned values based in Florida. You can learn more at keltecweapons.com. That’s K-E-L-T-E-C weapons.com. It’s the PR57. Tell them Dana sent you.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s Quick Five.
SPEAKER 36 :
So I did not know that Paris Hilton had a, checks notes, mini beauty fridge. I guess you keep a little fridge to keep your little stuff in the little fridge. And apparently it’s getting recalled because it could basically catch fire. Seems kind of opposite of a fridge, but okay. So, FYI, if that’s your jam, you might want to check your fridge. Michigan City paid $11,000 for bus rides out of town for dozens of homeless people. So, like, where? Oh, Florida. They sent them to Vegas and then in Florida as well. Well, I thought that this wasn’t something you were supposed to do. No. I was told that they they said, oh, we’re just trying to help vulnerable members of the community. We’re you’re just sending them out to they have. Do they have no no plans? They have no idea where they’re going. OK, let’s see this. Oh, this is kind of sad. I really want to talk about this. This is a sad one. Federal report on the though uncovers mistreatment at the UC Davis monkey facility. Wasn’t there a movie with Matthew Broderick about this at one point? I thought it’s the Primate Research Center at UC Davis. Apparently they are abusing the animals there. Of course, I am actually not for animal testing. I think that people who are on death row should be the subject to it. That’s me. I think that’s kind of, you know, FAFO, you know, the consequences. These animals didn’t do anything. So you can get mad at me. That’s the thing. That’s where I’m at. But anyway, they said that the mistreatment at the facilities is apparently pretty widespread. So now there’s an investigation. That’s not unlike what Fauci did with beagles. Oh, I don’t even want to relive that. I don’t even want to talk about that one again. That’ll get me madder than I’ve been today. U.S. and China are concluding talks with a framework on a TikTok sale. However, China keeps tweeting or posting on X, call it tweeting, I guess, that they are not going to sacrifice any of their principles. They’re not making any kind of compromise. So I don’t know. They’ve had a couple of days of talks in Madrid. Scott Besant apparently said that they had agreed to a framework for a deal. to divest TikTok from ByteDance, which is its CCP-embedded owner. And apparently Trump and Xi Jinping are set to speak on Friday of this week to approve of the deal, which Besant described as an agreement between the two parties and would shift the social app into U.S.-controlled ownership. So we shall watch and see, because if they’re still sending As part of the framework, if they’re still sending data to the CCP, to China, then it’s all for naught. So, you know, we’ll see. We’ll see how that works. Coming up, my friend Jesse Kelly is going to join us because I… I’m… I don’t disagree with people getting fired for celebrating murder, and neither should you.

People don’t have any intention of saying something that’s going to lead to something dangerous, but we cannot take responsibility for the minds that are out there and how they hear it.
SPEAKER 36 :
Oh, like hell you can. Oh, yes, you can. God put a hand over my mouth right now. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash, with you. We’re at the bottom of the second hour. You can listen live across the country. You can also watch us do radio, Channel 347 Direct TV, the chats at Rumble. Yeah, you absolutely can. I just spring on our guest, a dear friend of mine who I know is right in the same place mentally and just went through hell this morning, Jesse Kelly. You know him. He’s host of his own program here on The First as well. Just to keep going for a minute. I was reading this piece where they literally made up a quote. And I’m trying to wrap my head. They made up a quote and attributed it to you. And I just wanted to kind of get your thoughts on all of this. I know you’ve been posting about it on X. What happened?
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, Dana, here’s what I woke up to. Same thing that you saw. The Hollywood Reporter, which is where I first saw it, they ran some article because, of course, they’ve come up with a narrative they’re trying to sell that the right is blaming South Park, right? Well… I like South Park. I’ve never, however, discussed South Park, I believe, in any public forum of any kind, not in radio, not in TV, not in print. It’s not something I’ve ever talked about. And I certainly didn’t blame them for Charlie’s murder. I hated that they took down the episode. Charlie loved it. Why do I like that? So, again, this is… This is how I actually feel. And the Hollywood Reporter prints the article and names me as being one of the people who said South Park got him killed and now his wife’s a widow or something like that, which is not only something I’ve never said, I’ve never thought it. So, friends of mine, we know a lot of the same people, did their own sleuthing, a lot better investigative journalist than I am, and found out it originated in a New York Post article who they deleted it. They deleted the quote. They figured out it was wrong. But by then, the Hollywood Reporter’s quoting the New York Post. Now Yahoo’s quoting the New York Post. Rolling Stone’s quoting the New York Post. What’s that old Mark Twain line? A lie can go halfway around the world before the truth is finished putting on its shoes. So this thing is now in multiple publications of a completely made-up quote. I don’t mean a little bit twisting of the words. The start of the sentence to the end of the sentence is completely fabricated. It never said anything like that at all.
SPEAKER 36 :
I mean, they made up an entire sentence. I mean, a whole sentence with like grammar, punctuation and everything and said, Jesse Kelly said this. So here it is. They didn’t. And no one. And just, you know, just to dot all the I’s and cross all the T’s. No one ever reached out to you and said, wait, did you say this?
SPEAKER 10 :
Nobody. Nobody reached out. No one asked me for comment. No one asked to confirm it. And this is how they get away with the legal liability, Dana, of being dirty liars. One of them will be the original dirty liar. In this case, it was the New York Post. Now all the others have complete coverage from legal liability because they’re simply quoting not necessarily me. They’re quoting the New York Post, as reported by the New York Post. Well, it was reported by the New York Post. So now they all just get to lie with reckless abandon. That’s the world in which we live, I guess.
SPEAKER 36 :
That is the world in which we live in. And there ought to be, honestly, I mean, in a perfect world, there would be consequences for such malicious misrepresentation. We’re talking with our friend Jesse Kelly, who’s the host of his own show here on The First. I’m writing, of course, the anti-communist manifesto, which seems so timely considering the Marxist tactics right now with regards to rhetoric. I wanted it because this is what I really brought you on for. And then all of this stuff with The Hollywood Reporter exploded because the. The protestations from the left at being held accountable for those stupid enough to record themselves or celebrating a murder or to post some sort of celebratory remark about the murder of Charlie Kirk and then their their employments terminated by their employer and they’re blaming the right and trying to act like it’s cancel culture. I don’t think. That’s cancel culture. To me, it doesn’t seem like it’s remotely the same as what, Jesse, you and I have seen before where they go after some rando for some 15-year-old tweet, and it’s a distasteful joke, and then they try to ruin the person’s life. This seems wildly different, and I think you agree with that.
SPEAKER 10 :
Oh, of course I agree with it. This is the corporate world, the military, the several different entities in our country discovering that they’ve had subhuman beasts working for them who don’t have any value of human life at all. And what happened was simply it was just a revelation, a revelation that a lot of these companies woke up one morning. And they picked up their cell phone and looked at it, and they were mortified that Susie down in HR isn’t the pretty young blonde she looked like. In fact, she’s a complete savage who cheers on a widow being made a widow and two young children losing their father. The left has done this for years and years and years. They have continued. conditioned the Democrat, the average Democrat, this is not a random thing, the average Democrat, the polls show it, believes the death of their political opponent is acceptable. I think the number’s like 77, 78%. So while not all of them are assassins, a lot of them will celebrate an assassin or be okay with an assassin or just silently nod in approval of an assassin. You break your base mentally, and then for 10 years you tell them they’re facing Adolf Hitler. What you’re doing is you’re giving their conscience permission to go hurt your political opponents. That’s why they say the things they say, and it doesn’t take long until you find some nutball in some tranny forum on Reddit who’s going to break mentally and actually go do it. They’ve done this. They did it on purpose. These elite communists give orders to the street communists, and the street communists go forward and do what they do, which is hurt and kill people. It’s awful.
SPEAKER 36 :
You just said was so important that I think a lot of people aren’t picking up on these elite communists give their orders to the street communists because they Democrats have made these these far radical agitators their base. Now, I don’t know how the Democrats walk it back.
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, I don’t know how they do. I don’t think they can, Dana. Honestly, I think the elite communists have walked themselves into a prison here because there are some who know, particularly the tranny issue, is one they should walk away from just because it’s not popular. It’s not that they have something morally against it. It’s just not popular. The crowd hates it. The country hates it. But remember that one guy, Seth Bolton, that member of Congress right after the election came out and he said, you know, I think maybe dudes shouldn’t play in women’s sports like he took the most benign position in the world. He was so savage for it in the next 24 hours. He walked it back and apologized and never brought it up again. I think Dr. Frankenstein created his monster and now he’s afraid of him.
SPEAKER 36 :
That’s that’s a great point. Our friend Jesse Kelly is joining us right now. His book, The Anti-Communist Manifesto. It’s on Amazon. You need to read it. I. I’m interested in what your experience has been. And it sounds weird to even verbalize this. But out of everybody that I know on the left, there’s only one person that I actually know personally on the left who has not joined in with everyone else in terms of celebrating this murder and calling all of the people who think like Charlie Kirk, you know, Hitler or fascist, because ultimately it’s. Isn’t that kind of what the left is saying, that if they think that this guy sort of volunteer, if they think that Charlie Kirk volunteered himself for such a horrific way to die, that because of his beliefs, well, we all share his beliefs. Is that not a blanket statement on what they think the treatment of us is? I mean, what are your thoughts on that? And your experience? I mean, what have you seen with the left? Do you can you count how many people haven’t joined in with the rest of the radical leftists? Because I only have one. That’s it.
SPEAKER 10 :
No, this is what happens when you don’t value human life. This is where this begins. It actually begins before the rhetoric. When a human being is not God-breathed and sacred and wonderful and created, when he’s just flesh and blood, when he’s just a thing, then he becomes just a servant to the revolution. And therefore your value in the mind of a communist is only how much value you bring to the revolution. If you’re opposing the revolution, hampering it in any way, and I don’t value human life, if that’s my morality, well, maybe I won’t actually kill you, but I’ll probably be okay if you die. Maybe I’ll even cheer it. Maybe I will be the one who actually kills you. But if your life… doesn’t have any sacred meaning to it at all, and you’re just a soldier or an impediment to the revolution, this is the inevitable consequence of that. This is downstream of that. This is what happens when you kick God out of your country.
SPEAKER 36 :
Well, that’s a great point. Last question for you. We keep hearing, you know, we played audio earlier of James Lankford saying, oh, everybody’s got to be civil and we need to, you know, unify. Well, we were doing that and they shot the guy for it. What do you tell people? Why are we the ones who are made to feel like we’re bad if we don’t want to unify with people who think that our beliefs are are it’s OK to to to harm us or to perpetuate violence upon us simply because we think differently from the left?
SPEAKER 10 :
I have more disdain for James Lankford and Mitt Romney and John Cornyn and those types who preach that garbage than I do the communists. And I really mean that because there is a tiny cabal of GOP senators from red states who have kept their foot in the doorway to keep that door from slamming on communism in this country. Weakness like James Lankford constantly displays. And this is not a one-off. Constantly. Weakness like he displays is as responsible for the rise of the evil, vile left in this country as anything else going on, because we would have risen up and crushed them years ago had it not been for these eunuchs in the GOP who constantly kneecap our efforts. It makes me want to choke somebody.
SPEAKER 36 :
Yeah. Jesse Kelly, host of I’m Right on the First, world famous author, infamous anti-communist as well. It’s so good to see you, my friend. I wish it was under better circumstances, but we’ll we’ll have you back and we’ll talk again soon. Thank you.
SPEAKER 10 :
Appreciate you, Dana. God bless.
SPEAKER 36 :
We have more to come, folks, as we wrap this second hour of the program. And, of course, we have Florida Man, who’s going to be our saving grace today. God love Florida Man. That’s when you know it’s been a tough week, when Florida Man’s the one who comes and brings the lightness. Our partners over at Burn a Gun, because gun-free zones insanely still exist. Guess where gun-free zones really exist at? College campuses. Where do you think everybody’s getting radicalized? College campuses. It’s really disconcerting. If you’re a young adult, you’re not yet 21, you can’t carry a gun. But my gosh, maybe you live in a city and you’re going to college and you see the crime rate. You want to be able to protect yourself. This is how I think of burn a gun because I have zero problem in carrying a gun. And I have zero hesitation in using the lethal force to protect myself or my loved ones. And in the instances where you are disarmed because of municipal or private property restrictions, you need to consider a Burna gun. Burna guns shoot chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away. They’re concealable. It’s no recoil, very easy target acquisition. and they don’t care about gun-free zone signs. They’re illegal in all of the states. This is a great idea if you’re a college student. Again, under the age of 21, you can’t carry, but you want to be able to protect yourself. You should check out a Burna gun because they have two different versions. The SD is the first one. That’s the super popular one. Then they have the CL, the compact launcher. They’re both pistols. The compact launcher is smaller than the SD, so you have additional concealability. But… where you would normally have to do your background check and all this other stuff. No, there’s no background checks. There’s no waiting periods. There’s no fees. There’s no tax stamp. It can be shipped right to your door. It’s accessible for everyone. Check it out at Burna.com slash Dana. That’s B-Y-R-N-A, either the SD or the new CL, which stands for compact launcher.

Gen Z’s behavior in the workplace is staggering. 77% of Gen Z admitted to bringing a parent to a job interview. While 73% of parents help them complete their work assignments, should this be a sure way to get fired? Check out the Watchdog on Wall Street podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you get your podcasts.
SPEAKER 27 :
It’s his life mission to make bad decisions. It’s time for Florida Man.
SPEAKER 36 :
All right, so… I don’t even know where to start with this one because I got a couple of really crazy ones. I need to start with the lady who ordered a Baconator at Popeyes and got arrested because she wanted a Baconator and apparently they don’t have it. If you were surprised that she was inebriated, then I have to ask if you’re familiar with our segment. So this Florida woman, she’s drunk as all get out, tried ordering a Baconator at Popeyes. What does Popeyes have, Kane?
SPEAKER 27 :
Ma’am, this is not a Wendy’s. They have chicken.
SPEAKER 36 :
That’s right. She was mad because it’s not what she wanted. They couldn’t give her what she wanted because it’s a store that doesn’t have that. It was in Fort Lauderdale. She ended up getting she ended up being arrested. She because she wouldn’t get out of the drive through window and she tried arguing. I can’t even play this video because every other word is something that we would get fined for airing. But the cops did show up and they did take her into custody. But she she said that that wasn’t they. I think they gave her a strip of bacon. I didn’t know they had it. I don’t know. It looks like they gave her a strip of bacon, but she said that’s not what she wanted. And they kept telling her, man, this is not that kind of store. But it didn’t work. Just saying, you know, you got to pay attention to the menu. A Florida man with a luggage full of fake ideas and blank checks is arrested for not paying his Disney World hotel bill. Was he by himself? He was arrested for grand theft by fraud, and he had a $2,200 hotel bill at the Swan Hotel at Walt Disney World. And 26 years old, was arrested for grand theft. He said he was on a business trip, and he stayed for 10 days. 10 days, and it’s $2,000? Dang. I mean, that seems like, that’s cheap, isn’t it? Yeah. Yeah, way cheap. Yeah. Ooh. I’m just wondering about that. Anyway, at some point during the stay, the hotel staff realized he gave them a credit card that was flagged as fraudulent. It was a company credit card under the name Brian Smith. The guy, Justin Lara, said that was his boss. He said he was covering the balance for the hotel. All of the other credit cards they tried to process were declined. He had a Florida ID, but said he was from New York and then said he was there for a industry conference that took place earlier in the year. OK, so he couldn’t get his story straight. They ended up having to call the police on him. And he was taken into custody because that was, I mean, he was just basically trying to defraud everybody. Let’s see. Florida man. What? I’m sorry. What? Why? He’s filmed eating cookies from a pack that’s infested with bugs. That’s disgusting. Why did he do this, Cain?
SPEAKER 27 :
When you watch it, it’s like… I’m not watching.
SPEAKER 36 :
We’re not airing this for these people, these sweet people who’ve been through so much this week. We’re going to just skip on past this headline because I’m going to get sick.
SPEAKER 27 :
You know that dry heave you do when you see something horrible?
SPEAKER 05 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 36 :
So a Florida woman is blaming an alligator overpopulation and a multi-million dollar gator trade for fatal attacks in Lake Kissimmee. She said that it’s not just bad luck. She said that there’s a lot of problems with the gators here. She says that only Florida insiders know about the millions it’s made from their meat, their hides, and even their eggs. This is in Polk County. Alligator eggs. She says that the whole place has basically been turned into a giant alligator farm. They’ve even got Tampa Bay 28, their local news, investigating it now. They said that they even do designer handbags from the gator skin, the gator hide that they’re raising up here. And now it’s a multimillion dollar industry because they are not an endangered species any longer. It’s actually really there’s an overpopulation. And she said she was saying that it’s making it very, very dangerous and that in one state park alone, they had three attacks in two months. And that one woman was simply kayaking and the gator grabbed her arm as she was kayaking and tried to pull her into the water. She said gators will chase people that are near the water, not even like by the water’s edge, but they launch themselves. I mean, it sounds like, and these are big gators. In fact, one alligator attack was fatal, tipped a canoe over and took the guy’s wife underwater, Cynthia Dykema. They were avid canoeists from Michigan that were in Florida. They took annual visits there every year to canoe. And that’s that’s one of the he’s and he’s I mean, obviously devastated. He watched his wife die in an alligator attack. He said it did a death roll and swam away with her. Can you that? I can’t even imagine. I cannot even imagine. And they said it’s directly due to the overpopulation of gators in the lake. So is it because of like the gator farming kind of situation? I would just think if it’s a gator farm that they would be like in. Like, you know, a farm that’s not out there in the public. Right. I don’t know. I just I’ve got I got a lot of I got a lot of questions. Also, let’s see a couple of other ones. There’s a Florida woman who was arrested for practicing medicine without a license. There’s another one who is using a fake I.D. to apply for a job as a nurse. It seems kind of sketchy, I would say. Just, you know. We also, let’s see. Ooh, boat crash, blah, blah, blah. Oh, people got into a fight with bug spray. They got into a fight in a Publix over bug spray. A Florida man got arrested because he sprayed a bunch of people in the face with it. This is at a Publix in Port Charlotte. It was a grocery store checkout fight and it spiraled into violence where one Port Charlotte man attacked a couple in the Publix and blasted them in the face with bug spray at 2 p.m. on a Sunday. Come on. So apparently they got into the fight. It was a 60 fight. Two is a bunch of elderly people. They got into a fight. Because they were both trying to use the same checkout at the same time. And so they were both putting their stuff on the conveyor belt. And it went from that to hands and then bug spray. And of course, the guy who sprayed the bug spray was taken into custody. He was two counts of aggravated battery. He bonded out. Third hour on the way. Stick with us. We have more on the way as we roll towards the bottom of the second hour.

Listen as students and young adults interview well-respected CEOs on our national radio show, realworldleaders.org, to learn secrets for success and how to use them to propel their careers.
SPEAKER 33 :
I think it was really inspiring how Mr. Levin just keeps on wanting to, like, wanting to grow and learn more from the people around him, his peers and his advisor, his father even.
SPEAKER 22 :
Anya, how do you want to grow?
SPEAKER 33 :
Well, I’m also trying to grow my communications. I just became the communications chair of my school’s TA, student government.
SPEAKER 22 :
Hey, Brett, this thing about communication, how important is that? And how important is for Anya to continue to develop these communication skills?
SPEAKER 03 :
It’s so important. And I think today, as kids, you have your cell phones in your hands all the time and learn how to look people in the eye, publicly speak and talk to people.

SPEAKER 25 :
I’m not saying we have to just sing Kumbaya and hold hands. What I’m saying is we actually should disagree. I think Charlie represented that better than anyone. Charlie said some very inflammatory things. And in some corners of the web, that’s all people have heard. But he also said some other things about forgiveness.
SPEAKER 36 :
This is Governor Spencer Cox. I take back everything nice I said about him. What do you mean he said some very inflammatory things? What are they? These people go, well, he said some inflammatory stuff. Like what? Give me an example. Don’t sit here and try to both sides this. Give me an example, you coward, you absolute coward. You go on CNN and all of a sudden you got to go. You know, I was giving this guy some grace in the wake of a tragedy because he was one of the guys who was fighting the Republicans in his state on all the trains issues. But now I don’t I don’t have that good grace in me anymore. So, no, screw you. If that’s the stuff that you’re saying without actually coming up. But he said some inflammatory things like like what? Here’s my problem with that, with lawmakers who do this. What did he say that was so bad? And what did he say that’s different from anybody else on the right? Do you see what I’m saying? If you’re thinking if you’re because what that does, his Spencer Cox, governor of Utah that you just heard his argument that, well, he said some inflammatory things and he said some things. First off, all right there, you are giving ground to the people who killed him. by saying that in some small, however insignificant way, it was justified because he said some inflammatory things. Without even realizing he’s doing it, that’s what Spencer Cox is arguing. What did he say that was so inflammatory? That men can’t be women? Guess what? The majority of America feels like that. Should the majority of America now be worried about being shot in the throat by some deranged trans-TIFA leftist because we simply are speaking out on scientific truth? How is that inflammatory? How is it inflammatory to cite scripture, Spencer Cox? What inflammatory remarks did he say? I ask this because, hence disguise, some people on the right thought Charlie Kirk was too nice. So I really want to know what inflammatory things he said. What was inflammatory? Be specific. What? You absolute coward. You rat bastard. Go on CNN and then you immediately start doing this. These cowards all crumble on CNN. I’ve seen it over and over again. It blows the mind. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. We’re at the top of this third hour. The reason I get so mad over this, and by the way, I’m not like an angry person, and this is very rare radio, but if you can’t get angry over something like this and have justifiable righteous indignation and righteous rage over something like this, what are you saving your emotion for? The whole purpose of us feeling this way is because we never want it to happen again. It should have never happened in the first place. But we have people who try to qualify what happened by saying, well, there was some inflammatory things said without giving any example. By way of doing that, what you’re claiming is that it is okay to classify basic tenets like scripture, the fact that men cannot just decide to become women, things like that. And you’re saying that it’s so inflammatory. that it maybe shouldn’t be said else you might get killed. That’s what you’re justifying by saying that in so many words. That’s what he’s doing. That’s why I reject this wholeheartedly. I reject the whole, well, it was inflammatory. Speech is not violence. Violence is violence. And that’s why the left always wants to say that speech is violence so they can justify violence against the people speaking. That’s the whole point. And you’re giving them ground to do it by saying stuff like that. I had a lot of people who say they were very upset because some of their pastors mentioned what happened with Kirk. Some didn’t. They wouldn’t be unlike the Emmys, which I didn’t watch. Can I just talk about this chick named Hannah Enbinder? She gets up there and she’s like, oh, free Palestine and blank whatever. I’ll say it because no one else will. You have to be way hotter than she is to be able to be that stupid politically. Okay. Do I even want to play this? Go ahead and play it. This is stupid.
SPEAKER 08 :
Um, finally, oh, um, I’ll pay the difference. Sorry. Um, finally, um, I just want to say, I just want to say finally, um, go birds. And free Palestine.
SPEAKER 36 :
Thank you. Yeah, I think you got it. Nobody knows who she is. So I guess that’s why she’s pulling the stunt. You’re not hot enough to be crazy. I’m sorry. You’re not. I mean, there’s like a ratio there and you don’t qualify. And then you have Javier Bardem, audio somebody 37, who is an absolute moron. Listen to him.
SPEAKER 01 :
If you find out a company that you’re going to go into business with is in business with Israel, what do you do?
SPEAKER 04 :
I won’t work. I won’t work. I cannot work with somebody that’s justify or support the genocide. I can’t. What about the hostages, though, Javier? And we shouldn’t be able to do that in this industry and in any other industry. Today, in Madrid, in Spain, the cycle, la vuelta, the bicycle tour, it was stopped.
SPEAKER 36 :
What about the hostages, Javier, with your little cutie, little picnic blanket on your stupid neck? What about the hostages? Any words on those? Why weren’t the hostages released? Why is it a genocide when Hamas is doing it to everybody? It’s Hamas’ genocide, right? But yet you just don’t like Jews. That’s the whole problem. He doesn’t like Jewish people. And he’s one of those people who go, oh, it’s because of the, I just don’t like the government. You moron, you couldn’t even explain how their government’s structured. So spare us. No one believes that you’re insightful enough for that. I just have no patience for it. They didn’t mention anything about, you know, a political assassination. They didn’t mention anything about it because they all support it. That’s what I’m saying. All of these people. Who is this? Who is this guy right here? Let’s pull up. This is audio sound by 28. This is the TMZ guy. Yeah. Go and play the TMZ guy from it. And I want to make an I’m going to call for other audio after we play this. But go ahead.
SPEAKER 19 :
I am not going to mince words. I fear a civil war. I have lived a long time and I have seen a president assassinated. I have seen multiple attempts at killing presidents. I have seen civil rights leaders slain, seen presidential candidates slain. I have seen war. I have seen riots. but charlie kirk is different this is not a politician this is somebody who was slaughtered for his views and not pushing a particular even political party i think he had an ideology and he was a young guy on college campuses and i am feeling like people or at the point where they think this is the solution and i am worried Do you know the people who think that?
SPEAKER 36 :
Because I feel like he’s trying to indict the right for it. You know who the people who think that? Let’s play audio somebody 26. Let’s play the flashback of degenerates. This montage of degenerates on MSNBC. Go ahead and play this. But this is a war. This isn’t a battle.
SPEAKER 28 :
And we absolutely will win this war.
SPEAKER 30 :
It is a war. It is indeed a war. And I have to say, they have won some battles, Jasmine, but we have to keep our eye on the war and everybody needs to pick up a weapon and get involved because this is for the safety and lasting of the country.
SPEAKER 36 :
That’s just one example. Wait, there’s more. We have like a lot more. There’s others. I mean, you know, audio somebody 25 flashback Nancy Pelosi. Go ahead. Let’s get let’s get this all brought up here.
SPEAKER 34 :
This is violence against women. He may not know that. But when he says things like I want to protect women, whether they like it or not, that is violence against women. Would you want your son to say that to anyone? Would you want your daughter to be told that? Would you want your husband to say that to you, whether you like it or not? Violence against women. People don’t have any intention of saying something that’s going to lead to something dangerous.
SPEAKER 36 :
Let’s play. Give me audio. Somebody 30. This is Peter Baker with the New York Times. This guy’s also a piece of work. He again. What what things specifically, Peter? Go ahead.
SPEAKER 37 :
Even though Charlie Kirk held no office, never ran for office, had no position of power or authority in the traditional sense, he had obviously a network of people who he influenced. Now, he said a lot of things that got a lot of people riled up, right? And that’s part of his style. What?
SPEAKER 35 :
What particularly? What?
SPEAKER 36 :
Hey, man, you’re going up there and you’re playing the game. If you’re going to swing, make contact. What are you talking about? What specifically? And then that other annoying broad on MSNBC. What kind of vocal tonality is that? Sounds like she’s gagging. Specifically what? Oh, they can’t. Notice how none of them can say. Because they have no idea what he said. They have no clue. They just know he was somebody on the right. And if they can’t, if they don’t know what he said, they’ll make it up. Washington Post, Karen Atiyah is trying to make herself a victim. This broad, she got fired from the Washington Post because she literally fabricated a quote and attributed it to Charlie to justify his actual murder. Just like the Hollywood Reporter made up a quote or New York Post and then Hollywood Reporter ran with it and attributed it to Jesse Kelly. She literally made up a completely fake quote. Made it up and then published it. And the Washington Post found out that she made up a quote and published it. And now she’s acting like she’s the victim. Excuse me. She’s the victim now. When she was the one who did it in the first place, she made up a quote. So it doesn’t even matter. They don’t know what he said. They have no idea what he said. They’ll just make it up. They’ll just make it up. There’s no reasoning with these types of people. And the left was going, oh, can you believe Karen Atiyah? She she was I got fired over Charlie Kirk posts. She made up stuff and got fired for it. That’s why she got fired, because she was a dishonest broad. That’s why she got fired. She wasn’t fired over Charlie Kirk. She was fired because she made up a quote. Can you imagine if I made up a quote? I would be sued if I made up a quote on this program and ran with it and attributed it to someone and ran with it. They would sue me. She did this to him knowing that he can’t speak up against her because he’s dead, because her ideology killed him. And that’s the truth of it. I mean, if they can’t, they don’t even know what he said. They’ll just, like I said, they’ll just make it up in the meantime. They’ll entirely make it up. I mean, I’ve got a ton of audio here where people are nasty. In fact, we actually stopped collecting audio. We had to, of all of the nasty people. She literally, the quote that she made up was, she said that he said, quote, black women do not have the brain processing power to be taken seriously. You have to go steal a white person’s slot. He literally never said that at all whatsoever, at all. And she lied and said it was a direct quote. And now she’s running around. I got fired by the Washington Post because she made up a horrible quote to get attention for herself after someone was killed. These people are despicable. There’s no unity with people like this. There’s none. Not at all whatsoever. In fact, there’s Rolling Stone has two competing headlines by the same. Interestingly enough, they’re the same in the same section commentary. So in February of 2023, they wrote this quote, white cancel culture is good for democracy. Today, they’re writing, quote, people are losing their jobs for criticizing slain free speech advocate Charlie Kirk. Someone had said, these people, the people who are upset that they’re getting fired over free speech had no problem with Charlie Kirk getting killed for his. And that’s absolutely true.

SPEAKER 36 :
All right. So first up, this is, did I read like the one o’clock? I think I read the one o’clock instead of in place of the 11 o’clock. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hold on. Or no, I didn’t. It was just, I think, repeated several times. Let’s see this. I got a couple of different ones. There is a strange gas pumping defect that’s making $100,000 Corvettes go up into flames. Uh, okay. No, that’s not good at all. This is coming from the Wall Street Journal. GM recalled 23,000 vehicles over the issue, which has sparked dramatic scenes at filling stations. I don’t like to see nice, fast cars go up in flames. This hurts the heart. It hurts the heart. So they’re recalling just twenty three thousand vehicles. So apparently at filling stations, they’ve had some pretty dramatic, pretty dramatic scenes there as well. Let’s see. The DOJ is sharing state voter rolls. lists with Homeland Security. It’s coming through for people who are not legally able to vote. I feel like this is something that… Why wasn’t this already being done? Right. I just got to ask a question. Why isn’t this already been done? Long-term unemployment is at a post-pandemic high. I mean, I don’t know why people expect it. That’s one thing. There is a lot about unemployment numbers.

It’s mostly government people.
SPEAKER 36 :
It’s government people. Why can’t they just go and get a regular job? Anybody? Nobody knows? Why can’t they go and get a regular job? private sector has suffered so horribly they can’t get paid what they’re getting paid through the government oh oh that’s it oh okay apparently sydney sweeney backlash in hollywood is real so there were a number of articles at about the emmys last night she was at the emmys and she she was on stage very briefly to present an award but apparently there are a lot of articles saying that she was snubbed um on like at the like a lot of people backstage will talk and uh and and say hello to each other and apparently they were snubbing her over views that because of they think that she’s maga because of her denim ad i’m not even kidding and she apparently did not attend any of the after parties after that actually might be a good thing because do you really want to go and rub shoulders with these cretins i wouldn’t i mean so maybe you know maybe that was like a choice that she made so she didn’t have to deal with it i mean you never know And let’s see. Well, we’re running out of time here, but coming up, Stephen Yates is going to be joining us. We’ve got a lot of stuff to discuss, not just, you know, with the national news that we’ve had, but also the situation with TikTok. And apparently Trump and Xi Jinping are set to talk Friday to finalize the framework of a deal. Stick with us.

SPEAKER 21 :
Brighten up your timely news consumption with a Dana Show podcast, where every update comes with a little dash of Not So Serious. On YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts.
SPEAKER 36 :
Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you at the bottom of this third hour. We told you earlier, well one of the other things that we’re watching in addition to the ongoing developments coming out about the assassination that took place last week is these expected discussions with POTUS. and Xi Jinping as it relates to TikTok. And I really think that this dovetails in with everything that we’ve been talking about because social media has helped to foment so much of this nastiness in the United States and this pervasive thought that people apparently it’s okay to To celebrate someone’s death if they simply because they thought differently from you or it’s OK that someone should even die because they think differently from you because you’re too weak to coexist with a different set of ideals. And it is so pervasive on social media and platforms like TikTok. And we’ve talked previously about the algorithms that TikTok shows us compared to the algorithms that TikTok shows the Chinese or other more. China allied nations. It’s night and day. So now with this framework of an acquisition expected to kind of go through, they’re going to apparently formalize it later this week. Does that necessarily mean that the problem is off the table? Because remaining is the question about where the data goes. Joining us now to talk about this, our very good friend Stephen Yates. He’s worked in not one but two presidential administrations, the Trump administration as well as the Bush administration, senior fellow, research fellow at the Heritage Foundation. He joins us now via video. Stephen, my good friend, it’s very good to see you. It’s been a very very weird week. And now we’re going to be capping this week off with maybe the expectation that there’s going to be an agreed to framework. But that really leaves that question of, well, even if they do change ownership and it becomes something that is owned by a U.S. company, no one’s really given us any insight as to where that data goes, have they?
SPEAKER 11 :
No, we still have a lot of details to flesh out. And of course, as famously as said, the devil is in the details. And I think that we seem to be getting closer to what the law requires with regard to the divestiture. There’s this question of ownership, algorithm, and data. And those are sort of the three legs of the stool that have to be dealt with. But just to take a step back from it, this is a national security issue in part because The age demographic that is profoundly impacted by this technology is the demographic that we are relying upon to be productive citizens, to be recruits for our military, to allow for elder people like me to one day be able to retire and be taken care of, and to allow a foreign manipulative power to kind of numb or distract the minds of that demographic is a national security concern. So this has not just been an academic conversation. I hope that the president is within range of being able to address all three legs of that. But it’s after his phone call with Xi Jinping on Friday that we hope to get a bit more of the detail on this.
SPEAKER 36 :
Yeah. And that’s that’s going to be the big thing, because even if And just with the data as well, the control of the algorithm, isn’t that the big thing? I mean, couldn’t all of this have just been avoided if they said, yeah, you can just have control of the algorithm and we’ll just, you know, we’ll we’ll parse it out like that. I mean, if I remember in the early days of negotiation, they people were even settled with they were even going to settle on something as that and take that as a win.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, I just don’t think that with ownership and data off the table, you can have confidence that they’re not going to get more value out of the algorithm, even if someone else is running it. So to me, they’re sort of three parts of the same hole. But of course, you’re right that the algorithm is where the bullseye is. That is where, say, after October 7th and the horrendous attack on Israel, that immediately things were flamed into people’s timelines that were very pro-Palestinian messages and led to the Insta mobs across a bunch of universities in the United States and elsewhere. That was not by accident. It’s not always just about the US and China. It’s about pulling away from the American social fabric, distracting, disorienting, and degrading America. And that, I think, is why ultimately it would have been far better for us to have an American alternative. And you’d like to believe with some of the wealthiest and most powerful entertainment figures, political figures and tech gurus, we could do this and wouldn’t have to be dependent on technology that’s run by China.
SPEAKER 36 :
Yeah, that’s a great point. But so far, no takers, really. There hasn’t been really a lot of takers. I don’t think anybody wants to mess with that circus. Not their monkeys, not their circus. It kind of seems what it feels like. I wanted to ask you about what in the world is happening with South Korea right now. I read a piece that was getting into how there are rallies that are allowed, anti-American rallies that are allowed to be held outside their embassy. And I’m all for free speech, fine, whatever. But it’s inconsistent because apparently they’ve really locked down any kind of dissent with China in South Korea, like even banning any kind of demonstrations outside of the embassy in South Korea, the Chinese embassy in South Korea. I’m a little little concerned about this because they’ve been going through a very unstable period here. Is this a signal that they’re kind of trying to get a little closer to China?
SPEAKER 11 :
Oh, I have some very good friends that do follow that line of logic and are very, very concerned. I always get a little bit concerned about overreading some of the incidental things that come forward. The Koreans are possibly the world’s greatest purveyors of drama in the world. And I say this with love and admiration in a certain sense. They dominate soap opera. They have a huge amount of drama. It’s true.
SPEAKER 30 :
It’s quite good. Yeah.
SPEAKER 11 :
And so that’s one element of this. And of course, we should be very watchful of a left-leaning administration in Korea being too permissive to the Chinese. But sometimes in government, things that happen are sort of the squeaky wheel gets the oil. And so the Chinese complain about everything. If they get a mosquito bite, they’re blaming you and asking you to do something about it. It could be that we haven’t really put a powerful ambassador as a representative of the president into our embassy, are not pushing our point of view in a manner we could and we should. And so I’m not going to give them a free pass on this, but I really want us to be doing everything we should be doing And sometimes the explanation for these things we’re seeing is because the Chinese are masters of playing the drama back. And I think we should maybe be a little bit better drama queens about the things we care about. And let’s see where the balance falls.
SPEAKER 36 :
That’s actually a very good point. And you are right. They’re K-dramas are. I’m not saying that I’ve watched a handful of them. Maybe I have, but they are quite good with the drama. I will say that. A couple of other things to touch with you on, because we were talking about, by the way, speaking of South Korea, there are foreign ministers visiting China. That seems kind of more business as kind of usual. That seemed like a diplomacy sort of trip, unless I’m wrong.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, I mean, they’re right there. They’re just across a short piece of water to deal with China. Of course, North Korea has a land border with China. And so it’s especially with President Trump conducting diplomacy with anyone and everyone around the world. I can’t really tell the leaders of our allies not to engage and have their conversations, too. Just want to make sure that we’re in on the joke, that we have our conversations. And at least whatever our misgivings might be about the left-leaning government, I had hoped that President Yoon would stay out of trouble and would stay in office. That I didn’t get my wish. But at least the new president’s first big visit was to Japan and then to the United States. Those were the right touch points to get this right.
SPEAKER 36 :
That’s an important point. That makes sense. One last question for you. breached by Russian drones, that they were tracking them. They said it’s reckless escalation. It’s the second NATO country. I know Poland’s already invoked Article 4 to review it and see if there’s additional security needed. But what is your take on this?
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, it matters. And we’re in a completely different kind of warfare with drones. And when it comes to drone warfare, it kind of matters what was the scope of the incursion or the attack. And if it’s sort of one or two and it’s kind of incidental or possibly accidental, then I wouldn’t want to sort of risk World War III over something like that. uh… but definitely these encourage shows the irresponsibility of the russian effort uh… and it does show the risk that a miscalculation could trip something that we don’t want to spiral out of control so that’s i i think a challenge in a warning for other theaters because Drone warfare is going to be breaking out in Asia where we have allies that are in potential risk of conflict. And we’re going to need to learn how to deal with this. But for now, the Romania part, I think, is more of a watching and warning brief. The Poland incursion was a little bit more substantial. And as long as we can get the president’s wish of people to get serious about peace and stop funding the war machine, then maybe we’ve got better options.
SPEAKER 36 :
There we go. That’s it. Our good friend Stephen Yates at Yates Comms on X. Always good to see you, my friend. Thank you so much for your time. We appreciate you. Have a good week. God bless you.
SPEAKER 11 :
Thank you, Dana. Take good care.

Brighten up your timely news consumption with a Dana Show podcast, where every update comes with a little dash of not so serious. On YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts.
SPEAKER 32 :
Yo, real quick. At no point during yesterday’s show was Charlie Kirk’s death celebrated. At no point whatsoever did we celebrate Charlie Kirk’s death. I did call him a piece of shit. That much is true. But at no point was his death celebrated. If it was, go find me a quote. Go find me something.
SPEAKER 35 :
Oh, we’ll go find you a quote, mate. We’ll go find you a quote right now. Will you please rotate? Thank you.
SPEAKER 32 :
Take this next one to an absolute piece of shit of a human being. The pronouns was, were.
SPEAKER 18 :
Because if you touch sh**, you will get banged. Rest in peace, Charlie Kirk, you piece of sh**.
SPEAKER 36 :
Oh, and then the guy calls himself Bob Villain. He is an absolute female copulatory organ. And he’s a coward because he’s like, no, that’s not what was done. Oh, no, no, no. You ran. You talked a really big game. You did. You talked a big game, and now you’re being a complete dog of a coward and trying to walk it back because now people notice. There’s the one time in his life that someone noticed him. Oh, my gosh. How precious. And now he’s feeling the heat of it, and so he decides to be a big, giant coward and go, oh, no, I dare you to find me one quote. Okay, well, there it is. There’s the quote. That’s the video of you at your show literally like a couple of days before doing it. And? You got a response to that? You absolute coward. Absolute coward. These people are sick. This is like not… I got to be real. It’s not like one or two things. These are like regular… There’s a lot of people. I’m not going to lie and be like, no, guys, it’s only a couple. I’m not going to lie to you. Every damn leftist that I have seen, every single one, except maybe John Fetterman. I can’t believe I’m saying that. And maybe… I can’t even believe I’m saying this. Bernie Sanders. And that’s it. Every damn leftist has tried to qualify it without exception. And it’s not just politicians. It’s like doctors and teachers like this Canadian teacher. I don’t think we can play this, can we? This Canadian teacher. We’ll save this for that video for tomorrow.
SPEAKER 27 :
Well, it was for today in stupidity.
SPEAKER 36 :
Oh, okay. Well, hang on. I’ll set it up. Kane’s going to play it later. This teacher who made her kids watch it, her students watched the killing, and talked about what a fascist Kirk was. This is a teacher. You know how many teachers are coming up in this? There’s another teacher at Clemson. Clemson literally just issued a statement saying that they had faculty members who were removed from their teaching duties because of this, because they were celebrating murder openly on social media. There are pilots, like there are a handful of pilots that were fired because… They were celebrating, openly celebrating murder. There’s a doctor, doctors that were openly celebrating murder. Do you trust someone who thinks that someone should die for their viewpoints? Do you trust that person to operate on you? Do you trust someone who thinks you should die for your beliefs? Do you trust them to fly the plane that you’re in? Do you trust someone who thinks that you should die for your beliefs to educate your children? No, this is not like a couple of people. For all of the people who talk about unity, there is no unity. We aren’t the ones who are driving this. And I’ll be damned if we’re the ones who are lectured about having to make up for the absolute immoral depravity of the left. I am not making up for the absence of a soul for those people. It is not our responsibility. We tried to open an honest dialogue and somebody got murdered for it in front of his wife and his little kids and his parents. The left needs to step up. If the left wants unity, the left can start with it. Because the right, we were here doing it. I showed up at a town hall and they screamed, burn her. At a town hall! I had people trying to break into my home. My kid’s school had to be locked down for crying out loud. Charlie Kirk is having an honest, good faith debate and they shoot him in the neck. Ben Shapiro gets his appearances canceled at colleges because people are rioting. Other people get shoved into janitorial closets where they got to hide out because of violent rioters. So no, it’s not the right that needs to start this. If the left wants unity, they can start by being nice and civil. They can start. I’m done with trying to fix the depravity of these cretins. They can start. If you want unity, if you want it toned down, you start. Otherwise, I got two fingers on two hands for you. Done. Nowhere going with that. You want it, you bring it to the table then. I mean, I got a video of another guy who hasn’t been canceled on YouTube or Twitch, literally calling for more death. He is a huge YouTuber. He’s calling for more death. This is everywhere. There’s no qualifying it. If you want unity, then start by being civil left. And there it goes for all of these average, everyday, casual leftists. Stop qualifying it. Stop being silent. Stop being cowards. And everybody else, stop being bigots just because somebody thinks differently from you. Weak. Today in stupidity, Cain.
SPEAKER 27 :
All right. It is. Well, we had this whole show was about the emotional immaturity of the left ends up in stupidity. But this is a Canadian teacher Dana was referring to just minutes ago. Wow. I can’t even believe it. But here’s the news story explaining it all.
SPEAKER 17 :
Well, the Toronto District School Board is investigating after a teacher reportedly showed part of the video of Kirk’s assassination to some young students. The school board has not released the name of the teacher, only that they were a staff member at the Corvette Junior Public School. The school’s principal says the teacher had been supervising a class of French immersion students in grades five and six when the video was shown, adding that the teacher was relieved of all responsibilities until an investigation was complete.
SPEAKER 27 :
Good Lord.
SPEAKER 36 :
Yeah.
