A fiery debate unfolds as Dana and the hosts examine federal immigration laws, with a focus on Title 8, U.S. Code 1324, and its implications for sanctuary policies. Plus, Dana dives into the political reshuffling in Washington and the economic hurdles facing Americans this Thanksgiving Eve Eve.
SPEAKER 07 :
The absolutely breaking law. All you have to do is look at Arizona versus U.S. You’ll see this breaking law. But look, me and the Denver mayor, we agree on one thing. He’s willing to go to jail. I’m willing to put him in jail. Because there’s a statute. It’s Title 8, United States Code 1324-III. And what it says is, it’s a felony if you knowingly harbor and conceal illegal handling from immigration authorities. The absolutely breaking law.
SPEAKER 09 :
I just can’t believe how many times this has to be said. It’s another reason why I’m so incredibly excited for Tom Homan to take over. Because, I mean, it’s just needed. It’s just needed. So welcome to the program. It is the top of our first hour. And your lovable curmudgeon here with you, Dana Lash. So we’re going to get into all of this stuff. But this is the, I like Tom Homan. And I just, I am just, I know as you all are on pins and needles waiting for all of this to get situated where it concerns me. the cabinet and get these cabinet posts filled. And there’s some, some of the selections are not what I would like. And it’s, you know, they need to be something that we like because we got to, we got to deal with it. So we’re going to get into all of this. Welcome to the show. It’s Thanksgiving Eve Eve. And we’ve got culture. We’ve got some actual good news. I Because it feels like the pendulum is swinging the other way and that we’re actually making some ground, gaining some ground with us instead of constantly fighting and losing and having to deal with all these woke scolds out there. So there’s some good news on the horizon. We’re going to touch on that today. We’re also going to get into, you know, obviously all of the latest with the cabinet. We got domestic policy. their confidence in the economy, I’m sure you’re really surprised by this, has improved post-election. Gee, I wonder why. And then, of course, the cost of Thanksgiving food. We got to talk about that. We have to have that discussion, too, because they’re still trying to push this idea that somehow we’re all feeding people on, like, mounds of people on what? Just like $20, $50? We were talking about this the other day. It’s still going on. The left is still trying to defend this stuff. So I don’t know. So anyway, welcome to the program. Happy Thanksgiving, Eve Eve. One of the things that we’ve seen… And we’re getting some whispers as to what we can expect from the administration. They haven’t really – one of the things that was floated out there was this idea that he was going to have a – basically get rid of those who are serving who are, I guess, identify as transgender. And the spokesperson came out and said that that’s not something that they had float or that they have made a decision on rather. So there was I just noticed and I know you saw those headlines, too. There are quite a lot of them yesterday. And I was kind of wondering where some of them were coming from. But apparently that didn’t originate with the campaign. It kind of makes me wonder if someone was floating that in an effort to. Maybe move the needle for the administration. I mean, it’s definitely possible. I don’t know. But that’s one of the things that that is not certain that they said that they hadn’t made a decision on a couple of the other things. Some of the tariffs, the discussion on the tariffs, which we’ve talked about, he has said that and made it a huge priority in his, you know, like the first, I guess, month that he’s in office. He’s going to have to do a lot of stuff with executive order because so many people have been taken out of the House, unfortunately. And, you know, whether or not there’s the appetite to go back in and make sure that we’re passing legislation for this remains to be seen. But he’s going to have to do quite a lot with executive order the first month. Probably the first few weeks, just because we’ve got special elections that have to happen. You’re not going to have all of your Senate seated and your house seated. You’re not going to. Well, your house particularly. So that’s that’s what makes me look at this one headline where they were talking about tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China. That’s part of his first rash of executive orders. Now, this is something that, again, I get weird with executive orders because you really need congressional action on this stuff. Uh, and reading the planet said they, they were looking at imposing a 25% tariff on products imported from Mexico and Canada. Uh, this was one of the only, uh, day one first week first month things that he’s put out that he’s had on his truth social account the other stuff like i was telling you about the transgender soldier thing that’s all that was all something i don’t know where that came from but they said they had made a decision on that so this he said uh one of my executive orders he said on truth social he’s going to sign the documents necessary to charge a 25 tariff on all products coming into the united states so And he said this tariff is going to remain into effect until such time as drugs, fentanyl, illegal aliens stop the invasion of our country. That’s what he put on True Social. And then Mexico was responding, saying that they would in kind do something similar. That they would probably, well, they’ll look at implementing a tariff on U.S. products. I don’t know if they can withstand something like that, to be quite honest with you. But why what all the united states would have to do is immediately stop the flow across the border and just say we’re going to stop with green cards we’re going to stop with all this stuff then and and we’re going to just specifically target you mexico with i mean there’s a lot of stuff that they could do that doesn’t necessarily it’s not necessarily uh it doesn’t have to be tariff in response or increasing tariffs against mexico if they decide to be retaliatory over all of this but um It’s it is this is one of the things that that the right is going to have to debate. The right is going to have to debate it because there are some of the right that I think that they’re more libertarian leaning that are very much against tariffs. And I I get it in some instances. I don’t support it in every instance. But I do think you can’t pretend that you have a free market when other countries are levying tariffs upon our products. And yet we’re completely supposed to let everyone in. have free access to ours. It can’t exactly go both ways. That door has to be able to swing both ways. You can’t just have it one particularly. So that’s honestly would be like one of the first things that they would need. I mean, really, that the United States would have a lot at its disposal as a way to push back against any kind of trade retaliation or anything from Mexico. They said, oh, yeah, we would just we would we’ll do a tariffs of our own. But again, the visas that we grant, what’s the number of visas? So for this is fiscal year 2023, the. Type the new lawful permanent resident status for Mexico. The total for that period was 180,530. All you got to do is just turn it off. If Mexico wants to F.A., then F.O. and just do it just like they’ll immediately stop. They will immediately stop. So there’s there’s one thing you can do. In the meantime, the we’ll wait and see, because China’s obviously not taking that taking that. Well, that’s a whole other topic. We’re going to say that one for Stephen Yates when we come back for Thanksgiving. But the. Tariff and the fight over this, where it has to do with Canada, we have a really good relationship with Canada, but he makes a point about the drugs coming across the border. And a lot of that is lack of interior enforcement in Mexico. I mean, just a complete lack of enforcement. So you have to have a partner at the border as well. And they can’t just be constantly partnering with China. You have to you have to have a partner at the border in order to implement for this to for everything to work well for us to stop the flow of drugs across the border. I don’t know. I just want to get Tom home in an office. I’m so tired of talking about these damn nominations. I just want to wait and get some. We know who they are. We’ve lodged our disagreements with them. I’m not Fox News, and I’m not going to sit here and talk about the same damn appointments for week after week. God help me. Not going to happen. There’s other stuff to touch on. Nothing’s changing with these. Hey, guess what? The people that were nominated, still the same people that are nominated. Nothing’s changed. No one sprouted another head. They haven’t grown a third leg. Nothing’s changed. Same people. So one of the other—this is over at Business Insider. The president’s vow, I don’t know if this was a vow as much as it was maybe a suggestion, to use U.S. troops for mass deportations could face intense resistance starting from within the military. Hey, Kane. Yes, ma’am. What’s the job of the president? What do they call him?
SPEAKER 05 :
Well, he’s the commander-in-chief. He’s the head commander. Of the military. He’s the one that is the A number one authority as it relates to the military.
SPEAKER 09 :
So what if I were to tell my bosses at Radio America, I just don’t really feel like doing this. And I just told them every time they put a thing, I’m not doing this. I’m not doing this one. I’m not doing this one. No, I’m not going to cooperate with you on this. That wouldn’t go over well. It wouldn’t go over well for anybody in their job.
SPEAKER 06 :
It wouldn’t.
SPEAKER 09 :
But yet… Why are they leaking to the press saying, yeah, we’re not going to go along with any of this? And he he’s just speculating, by the way. He’s not kicking out a step by step plan. And I love all these people. They’re like, well, they Google things like, well, I mean, let’s look. You know, you have the the act that bars, you know, federal federalized guardsmen from acting as law enforcement. It’s suddenly now you guys love the Constitution. You’re going to start you’re going to start citing it. You’re going to start citing parts of the Constitution. But wait a minute. What gets me is they think that you’re overextending to send people who are here illegally home. And you’re also overextending to enforce any kind of border law. None of that makes sense. And that’s where we are. So I don’t know. I just feel… Well, yes, you know, you were going to cite the Posse Comitatus Act and we’re going to bar active duty and we can’t. Oh, suddenly they’re citing the Constitution. Suddenly they love it. And by the way, this is something that Tom Holman had suggested as well. He had said that troops could assist immigration dragnets through non-enforcement roles. And that’s completely that’s because it is a national security issue. And of course, they haven’t released he hasn’t put out a step by step plan on true social about it. But that’s something that they’ve you know, they’ve speculated about and they’ve suggested. But we’ll see. But the idea that you’re going and you’re going to grab people who are in the country legally and you’re going to. You’re going to deport. That’s not what they’re talking about. People who I mean, I don’t know. Do you have to draw a picture? How much more how much more clear can you make it for these people? There’s literally there’s a difference between coming in illegally and coming in legally. Major difference. Major difference. And he can technically legally employ, deploy the National Guard if they’re working with state governors and it’s all for domestic law enforcement. That’s absolutely allowed. That’s it. Because they’re operating under state control, not federal control. So that’s absolutely allowed. So I think people miss some of that. We have a lot more on the way as we roll towards headlines. And getting you set up for Thanksgiving break. So you have something to offend, you know, the Biden voters at your family table about as we move our partners that bring you this program. Who do we have? Because I have I have it. Our friends over at Preborn. This is, by the way, this is such a great organization. I don’t know how familiar you are with Preborn, but this is an organization that is assisting women who are making the choice to become mothers. And there’s a lot out there in society that pressure women and tell them that they’re not empowered enough to raise a baby if they have an unexpected pregnancy or unplanned pregnancy. And Preborn is their organization. All across the United States in direct competition to the abortion industry. They’re the largest provider of free ultrasounds in the country. So they allow women, they bring women in and they can see their baby, meet their baby, hear the heartbeat through an ultrasound for the first time. And that whenever that happens, they’ve done studies on this. The baby’s chance that life doubles. You can make a big difference with the leadership gift. double your impact with matching gifts as well, because every dollar that you give is doubled through a matching gift opportunity. So your donation can go twice as far in saving babies. Preborn has a four-star charity rating, so you can give with confidence. All their gifts are tax deductible too. Everything you give, all tax deductible. And when you consider, I mean, honestly, you can buy today an ultrasound for a woman. You could do a leadership gift of 5,000, 10,000, 15,000. Any donation helps. Your generosity helps save countless babies who need it. And they go further. They meet women where they are. They help with not just ultrasounds, but maternity, diapers, car seats, all of it. And they partner with women to the toddler years. It’s simple to donate. Visit preborn.com slash Dana or dial pound 250 and say keyword baby. We need to reach the goal of 1,500 ultrasound sponsorships. That’s preborn.com slash Dana pound 250 keyword baby.
SPEAKER 02 :
They allow IRS agents to go after you even though they don’t pay their taxes? The IRS agents auditing you owe a lot in back taxes. 6,000 IRS workers owe a total of $50 million. Check out the Watchdog on Wall Street podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you get your podcasts.
SPEAKER 05 :
And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s Quick Five.
SPEAKER 09 :
It can stop this. They’re saying forecasts are warning of possible winter storms across the country during Thanksgiving week. Stop it. It’s going to be 80 degrees in Texas tomorrow. It’s 60 degrees today. It’s absolutely frigid. This is just Arctic. It’s frigid. 60 degrees. It’s when the fire comes on. 80 degrees tomorrow. My head’s going, what’s happening? Everyone’s sinuses are like, why does nature hate us? So they said that another round of wintry weather could complicate travel. Stop it right now. Could complicate travel. And talking about snow, apparently in Montana, they’re already getting snow. That’s crazy. You guys are all… I don’t know, man. I can’t. I like to look at it, you know, maybe like touch it, and then I’m done. Finished. Finitoed. Can’t handle it anymore. It’s too cold. It’s like a… No, I can’t. I can’t. Also, let’s see. New York’s meatpacking district is going to say goodbye to its last meatpacker, and a 60-story tower could be on the way. That’s not like the really arty, bougie. It’s been like that for the last 20 years. A real arty place. Are they going to call it meatpacking anymore? I mean, if the last… Because that’s where all the meat used to go. Now it’s like all luxury, high-end stuff and clubs and all this. But yeah, that’s where actually all the people went to pack meat. And they called it the Meatpacking District for a reason. And now it’s just… No, it’s not going to. No, it’s not. No, it’s all like bougie and offices and everything else. So the last one is, that’s kind of sad. I don’t know why, but that, you know, because nobody’s, I mean, pretty soon they’re going to call it something different. Butterball is facing, oh boy, is facing a Thanksgiving turkey boycott. Of course, it’s discussing sex abuse allegations resurface. It’s slaughterhouse workers torturing and sexually abusing turkeys. Wow. PETA, I don’t dislike PETA, but I think they go way over the top with stuff. But they launched an investigation in a Butterball’s Ozark, Arkansas location. And they said that they were, I mean, torturing them. They weren’t, you know, they would, I can’t tell you everything that they did, but you probably have an idea. I just find that to be heinous. That’s heinous. Like, we don’t need to do that. I like eating meat. Don’t don’t try to like make me hate you and make me not want to eat your turkeys. Quit. You know, just just be nice. You can still work with animals and be nice. You can still prepare them for slaughter and be nice. Right. It’s like the Patrick Swayze Roadhouse mantra. Be nice because these people make me want to not be nice. And our brains love taking shortcuts with everything. Because we’re lazy. We’re a lazy species. We are. Coming up, we’ve got a lot more on the way. The story of socialism’s failure, which led ultimately to the first Thanksgiving. We’re going to get into that. Oh, Alec Baldwin says that we’re ignorant people. Americans are an ignorant people. Yeah, stay with us. We’ve got a lot more. Our partners for this portion, the non-firearm firearm, the Burna gun, and that’s exactly what it is. It’s a non-firearm firearm. It actually can shoot chemical irritant projectiles that can stop threats from up to 50 feet away. It’s a very powerful deterrent. And it’s great to diversify what you have in terms of self-defense. I always will carry. I have zero issue with telling someone that I that, you know, that lethal force to protect yourself and your loved ones. I mean, that’s the that’s the point of self-defense. There are times when you’re barred from carrying. And I would love to live in the kitten and sunshine world where I never have to go to a gun free zone. But I’m a grown woman and I have to do grown woman stuff like work and pay bills and go to places sometimes where guns are banned. I don’t want to be a statistic because someone else lives in the fairy tale of that gun free zones work. So this is where Burna comes in. The Burna gun, again, it’s legal in all 50 states. There’s no background check. There’s no waiting period. They ship it right to your door. And I know a lot of my friends that also have gotten this as another option for self-defense, especially when they have to go in some of these areas where they’re barred from carrying their actual firearm. You can check out all the models that they have. The Burna SD is the most popular selling gun. option that they have. They have many others. They also have different accessories, projectiles. And from now, well, from November 29th till December 2nd, rather, you can get 15% off site-wide on all Burna products. Visit Burna.com slash Dana for 15% off.

SPEAKER 09 :
I gotta tell you, I’m still mad about this. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you. We’re at the top of this first hour. Actually, sorry, bottom of this first hour. Kane and I were talking about this on break, because this, I don’t know why, but this has made me mad. And I’m still mad about it. You ever like read something and you’re like, You know, still mad, stay mad. Yeah, that’s, yeah. This is after I saw, what’s his name? Frank Chunks, sorry, verbal typo and it stays. This is… He put this thing out. I’m pulling this up right now. Okay, here it is. I wanted to make sure I get the article right because it was CBS. I kept thinking it was ABC. It’s CBS. And they were saying, oh, yeah, you know, Thanksgiving dinner prices are dropping. Oh, my gosh. No, they’re not. And then they were trying to do like a cost of 10. That the average cost of Thanksgiving dinner for 10 is going to be $58. And that’s 9% less. And you’re supposed to applaud for Joe Biden. and Kamala Harris. You’re all supposed to applaud. Are you applauding? Because you can feed, apparently, in some kind of psycho world, you can feed 10 people for $58 for Thanksgiving dinner. I’ve had some smartasses on X go, oh, yeah, you can. And I want to slap their teeth out of their faces, out of the meat sack that they call a head. And here’s why. Because they’re lying. I told Kanan that. I’m like, this one guy was running his mouth at us like, well, I was able to get gravy for a dollar. First off, what do you mean get gravy, you poser? What the heck is that? You make the gravy. What is the get gravy? What is that? Oh, my gosh. All right. Anyway. Gosh, who would want to eat at that guy’s house? He’s like the guy who doesn’t clean his ice maker. He’s one of those guys. Anyway, they were running around, Kane and I, and I said something kind of mean, and I felt like I should repeat it. Most normal people would try to stuff that deep down within. I celebrate it. Happy Thanksgiving. And I told Cain, I said, you know, the guys, he doesn’t, this is a dude who does not shop. He’s never prepared a meal. This dude has never been inside. You know what? He’s got his stay at home repressed female taking care of everything back for him at the house. So he can pretend to be a progressive male on X and try to lecture everybody else what they’re doing for Thanksgiving dinner. How high are you to think 10 people for $58? Now you could maybe get close to it. But you ain’t getting it for $58 unless you’re pulling stuff out of your garden and shooting your own birds. Just saying.
SPEAKER 05 :
Smiles cost more than that.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, no joke. We were looking at the prices. I think for 10 people, first off, let’s establish something. I think the idea of how much a single person, how much turkey a one singular person eats is greatly misunderstood in this nation. Yes. Greatly misunderstood. I agree. And I’m not going to lie. If you put a pound of turkey meat, because I am the person who eats like the vegetables and the meat, and I try not to mess around too much. I might sneak some yams. I try not to mess around with it too much. Because, you know, starch is not as healthy. But if I’m one of those people, I don’t know how much I should tell this. Okay, so I will eat like a man, right? Look, why are you so eager to volunteer that? Yeah. When have you seen me eat like a man?
SPEAKER 05 :
Oh, come on. Every time I’ve ever seen you eat. What do you mean? I feel like it’s to the point where it actually invokes competition in me. I’m just trying to think where… Where I’m like, I need to eat more of a man than Dana.
SPEAKER 09 :
I mean, I could sit down and I could put away a pizza. I just have discipline and choose not to. It’s a choice every day.
SPEAKER 05 :
That’s true. I have less discipline.
SPEAKER 09 :
I mean, if there’s sweet potatoes, I love those, things like that. I don’t like turkey except on Thanksgiving. Hate it. Hate turkey. Thanksgiving, something flips in my brain. I’m like, love it. But if you put a pound of turkey on a plate and hand that to me, that’s going to look measly. Why is it? Because we’re like, oh, well, this person will eat a pound. Y’all, you’re going to eat more than a pound. I’m going to tell you this. And it’s protein and it’s okay. It’s good poultry. It’s protein. You’re all right. You’re going to eat more than a pound. Someone’s sitting down figuring out how much, you know, what the size of bird we should get. And I’m looking like, well, what do you think? Maybe two pounds on average? Yeah. I want the chat to weigh in on this.
SPEAKER 05 :
But you have to understand that when you get the full weight of the turkey, it’s the bones too. You’re not expecting people to eat bones. So there’s like a good percentage.
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, there’s someone at the table I don’t like. Yes, I am.
SPEAKER 05 :
You’re going to force feed the bone. But I think what it boils down to is a certain percentage of the bird is actually bone. So you can’t take it. If you’ve got a 23-pound bird, maybe 18 of that is meat, something like that.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah. So you’ve got to think about that stuff. That’s a very good point, sir. Very good point. Yeah. So a couple, I don’t know, I’m just thinking like for 10 people, you’re probably going to need a 20 pound plus bird. 20 to 24 pound bird. Those are like $22 at the grocery store near me. Depending on what kind of potatoes you get. I mean, if you’re going to do sweet potatoes, you’re looking at, without tax, it’s about 90 cents per tatie. They’re actually, they were $1.49. They were, they’re on sale. Per taty. Per taty. Yeah. You could get $6 without tax, a five pound bag of like the russet potatoes, right? Because you got to have your mashed potatoes so you can create your gravy crater. And that’s how kids, you can tell if someone’s a communist. If they’re not creating a gravy crater with their mashed potatoes, A, they’re not American. They’re not human. They’re probably from Mars and they’re commies. That’s like the worst of all the things, right? They’re communist aliens, like from Mars.
SPEAKER 05 :
They need to be told.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, they need to be told. Everybody knows this. So I’m not even getting into like if you do a vegetable, like if you do green beans, and I try not to do processed food as much as possible because it’s horrible for you and it’s just better to make it. And like we’ll do like we’re doing a broccoli casserole this year because we always did like a green beans and nobody eats it. Nobody eats green beans. My mom is always like, oh, I love the green beans. Doesn’t touch a bean. Make them for every year. Woman, don’t touch a bean. And I’m like, she tells all that, you know, she’s telling the kids, oh, I love Nana loves the green beans. No, you don’t. And I’m watching you. You’re not eating them.
SPEAKER 05 :
I’m not a fan of the French cut ones, but I do like the Blue Lake cut green beans.
SPEAKER 09 :
I mean, I’ll eat them if I feel like I have to. Otherwise, I’ll scoot them around on my plate and pretend. Not going to lie. Not going to lie. So. Like a broccoli casserole, you can make your pumpkin pies. We usually do a chocolate pie. All this is getting upwards up over the $58. And I ain’t even getting into the wine or if you have any brewskis, any kind of adult nectar. I’m not even getting into any of that soda. That sounds weird to say. Sodies. If y’all is getting some sodies. You know what? It’s Thanksgiving Eve Eve. I can do that. I’m going to slide right into it. You know, if y’all, if y’all going to get some sodies, then, you know, whichever sodies you all want.
SPEAKER 05 :
If you’re more north, it’s pop.
SPEAKER 09 :
Who calls it pop? People in the north. Do they really call it pop? Yeah. Like pop.
SPEAKER 05 :
There’s a lot of people that have migrated from the north to the south that call it pop still. I don’t get them people. It’s pop for them.
SPEAKER 09 :
It’s sody or coke. Everything’s coke. Right. Even when you mean Pepsi. That’s the south. because I like Pepsi. I’ll have a Coke. No, I want that other Coke. I’ve literally had members of my family say this, and I’m like, you mean Pepsi? It’s not called other Coke. My point in going through all of this is that these stooges at CBS who are like, oh yeah, we’re going to just $58 for 10 people. It’s perfect. What are you eating? What are they eating? They’re trying to act like That it’s historically affordable. If you Google that, or Google, if you put it on X, all these people are saying the same thing. Oh, it’s historically affordable. Historically affordable. It’s down 5% prices. Did historically change definition while we were sleeping? Let’s check. Wait, does historically still mean the same? I’m just going to put it in here. Yeah, I mean, in accordance to or with respect to history. So, yeah. They’re trying to make this a really big thing for you. Oh, it’s a story. But that’s just like, you know, a man can’t be a woman. This can’t be historically low. It’s not. Uh, it doesn’t make any, it doesn’t make any sense. So this idea, and I’m just looking at all the prices. This is just at my, and I’m not looking at bougie stuff. This ain’t at like Whole Foods or Central Market or none of that stuff. This is at your Kroger, you know, at your, at your, at your Aldi’s even. I bet at Aldi’s it’s even. And I like Aldi’s. People sometimes I think toss shade on Aldi’s. Aldi’s is good. People toss and shade. People act like they’re mad that they got choices for affordable foodstuffs. So it doesn’t matter where it is. I mean, you’re not spending. You’re not going to be spending. That’s a stretch. Here’s some water. And everyone gets the thinnest slice of turkey because we’ve got to make this meat stretch, okay? And here’s our stuffing. And we just got, I will say, the sliced cranberry sauce. That’s what, maybe $1.50 without tax? Actually, what is that? Let’s look that up. Because I just don’t know why they’re trying to lie now. They’re trying to lie to you about how much you’re spending. There were people who were like, I got a family of six, and I was already at 170-something. And now I’m going to have to go out and get extra meat because we got other people coming, and then it’s going to increase it even more, etc., I mean, everybody, when I commented on this on X, there were so many people in the thread that were sharing like, this is, we have eight people, we have 10 people, we’re having 12 people, we’re having six people, we’re having three people, we’re having four, whatever. And every single one of them was spending more than the $58. And none of these people were going to Whole Foods and buying like the super bougie stuff, you know, where they go and they massage the turkeys and give them a scalp massage. And it’s like a Warner Brothers cartoon. They’re not doing any of that. I mean, it’s just regular grocery store. Nobody’s been. So why this push right now? Nobody’s believing this.

SPEAKER 05 :
Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States.
SPEAKER 13 :
In many regards, this election cycle did not go as I had hoped.
SPEAKER 11 :
In response to Trump’s national immigration policies, Frederick Mayer, Michael O’Connor pledging to carve out space in his local budget for a legal advocacy fund, which would use tax dollars to pay undocumented immigrants attorney’s fees as they fight deportation.
SPEAKER 09 :
Ooh, well. This is going to be forever a fight. That’s the Maryland mayor. Yes, tax dollars are going to be used to pay these legal fees. This is taxation without representation. That’s not what we pay our dollars for. And this is why I honestly think, why are we paying taxes for it to be used in ways that are not ways that we, the governor, through the power of our consent, have consented to? The agreement is that you’re going to act in accordance with the law. You will enforce laws on national sovereignty on legal entry. And you have this amount of taxpayer dollars to use for strictly that purpose. That’s not what this is. To pay the legal fees. So do you think that if I illegally entered Mexico, that Mexico would use Mexican nationals taxpayer dollars to pay for my defense? Or if I tried to illegally enter any country, what about Saudi Arabia? I think Saudi Arabia would pay for my legal defense. What about Argentina? What about China? The left loves China. think that they would pay for my… Why is it the country in which you enter illegally, why are they responsible for paying for the legal fees of someone who willfully and knowingly broke the law? That’s Wow. Such an abuse of elected authority. Such an abuse. How do these people keep voting for this stuff and thinking that it’s these people are so cavalier with everybody else’s money? Notice it’s always these people on the left that support this. Oh, yes, we have to have higher taxes. Oh, yes, we need to be able to pay this. But none of these lazy grifters will ever themselves write a check to the Treasury. The Treasury would accept it. You actually can give more. I don’t know if people are aware of this, but you can actually give more in terms of what you pay in taxes than what you’re and you can tell them to keep it. And you and you can tell you you can you can even reject your refund. But no one on the left does this. Notice that they they act like they are somehow incapable of doing this unless the federal government or some government entity forces everybody to do it. Well, then that’s not you choosing to do something of your own free will. That’s you being forced to do something. And this is one of the reasons why government’s a horrible facilitator of charity. You’re removing from people any kind of incentive, any kind of anything to do something themselves. If these people wanted to do it, let them do it. They can fund it. But why are they not doing that? Why are these leftists that are… Is this mayor? Do you think this mayor is paying extra to have… His money used for the defense of people who legally entered the country. I mean, I don’t know what defense they could have. I mean, yes, I completely entered the country illegally. Yes, of course. I don’t know what defense they could have. This is a huge problem. The left is facilitating our demise through policies like this. I mean, coming up, we’ve got this story about how they’re actually, and I know NYPD believes this. I mean, this is just assumed fact that Trenda, Aragua, and all these other gangs from Venezuela and elsewhere, they’ve been recruiting youth in these shelters that they’re putting illegal aliens in and storing them there. It’s just this is wild to me. We saw what happened in Germany when they started doing this stuff. We saw what happened in Britain when they started doing this stuff free and fast and loose with their borders. We’re doing the same thing. We’re witnessing the same thing happening here in the United States. This just is it makes me not. Why the hell are we paying taxes if this is what our money is used for? Why? Why? I, asinine. And then this is the exact same government that expects you to understand why, oh, we’ve got to give more money to Ukraine. Oh, we’ve got to, got to do, we’ve got to give more money to Ukraine. Oh, we’ve got to give more money here. We’ve got to donate more money here, more tax dollars. I tell you, I know I’m going to have a lot of talk about a Thanksgiving dinner, aren’t you? Now coming up, speaking of Thanksgiving dinner, do you realize that This nation was founded by failed socialists. They failed horrifically, learned their lesson. And that from that capitalism took root. I’m going to explain all of that because it plays into the capitalist Thanksgiving. We got all of that and more coming up. Stick with us. Welcome back. We’re at the top of this second hour. You can listen coast to coast, Channel 347, DirecTV as well. Make sure you check out the podcast. I mean, you’re already listening somehow, so you kind of know. Also, Substack, Chapter and Verse, always good stuff over there. This is breaking news. A ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah is expected to take effect within hours, according to a U.S. official per CBS News. It’s been widely reported now. They said it’s supposed to be announced today. Now, it’s not Israel and Hamas. It’s Israel and Hezbollah. terror outfit that’s in that’s up to the north of Israel so it’s in Lebanon but apparently this is supposed to halt the conflict there within hours apparently they’ve come to I mean I’m sure we’ll get more information it’s expected to be announced today that they’ve secured a ceasefire in Lebanon, ending the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah for now. Under the deal, it is being reported as a full and permanent ceasefire implemented immediately, 60 days permitted for the full withdrawal of Israeli forces, a gradual withdrawal to allow Lebanese forces to mobilize and move in to secure the area. But the trigger time is immediate, set to take effect later today. The first peel off of Israeli troops was to begin within the next 10 days. And Hezbollah is expected to pull its forces and heavy weaponry back about 20 miles from the Israeli border. They said that the prime minister had already convened the country’s security cabinet to discuss the proposal. as they have to agree to any sort of ceasefire agreement. And they said that Lebanon’s government also had to unilaterally approve the deal. And officials say that that is expected. And the ceasefire, this is the deadliest conflict since 1990 in Lebanon. So this would end this. Netanyahu is going to be addressing his nation actually probably within the hour, which is about 8 p.m. their time, 1 p.m. Eastern. And actually now, really, 12 p.m. Central, 1 p.m. Eastern, so about now. And the French didn’t help negotiate the deal, but apparently they’re going to be a part of the implementation somehow. And that’s pretty much it. They said that they, this was something that Blinken told reporters after they met, when they were in G7. They met with their G7 counterparts in Italy, and he was saying that they were moving towards brokering this diplomatic deal. So that’s the latest. Apparently there’s going to be a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, the Iranian terror regime there in Lebanon. So it’s Thanksgiving Eve Eve. And one of the things that I always like to go through when I when I homeschooled my kids up until junior high, this is one of the lessons that we looked at every single Thanksgiving. And it’s based on the writings of William Bradford. who was the governor of Plymouth. And as you know, that was like the first big, I guess, colony that was being established here in the United States. And I had said before we went to break that the United States, actually the society here, it was actually started by failed socialists who really horribly failed. And they had tried socialism. There was extensive historical writing on this from William Bradford, who was the governor at the time, who talked about all of this. When they first came to the New World, and this was like in 1620, yes, they were fleeing religious persecution, but they also – wanted to get away from the old world and create something new. And so that is where the Plymouth colony, that’s how that came to be. And they were big adherents of Plato’s Republic and they wanted the ideal communism that they claim was found in the Republican, which is ironic. But they said that in the beginning when they were all establishing this colony, that they would not have either private property, they would not have any sort of self-interested gain, nothing like that. And the diary of the governor at the time, who was the head of the colony, he noted that the colonists, they collectively cleared and they worked the land And they said, however, they ran into a problem because you would think, you know, no one’s going to own everything. It’s going to be kittens and sunshine, hold hands and sing kumbaya hippies. Yay. And that it was going to be, you know, perfect little glorious society. And it wasn’t. It was it was absolute hell. And Bradford noted at the time that as they were collectively clearing the land and working the land, that they, quote, brought forth neither the bountiful harvest hoped for nor a spirit of shared and cheerful brotherhood. There’s a reason why. In every society, you have people who want to work and you have people who don’t work. And the people who do not work, there might be some different reasons. But in a lot of it, I think that they’re in some respects. And I think that the people who don’t work because of some kind of, you know, illness or something, anything. That’s that’s the exception to this rule. There are a lot of people and this is all how I define all the progressivism that are just lazy. They’re lazy. They don’t want to work. They want to be taken care of. They think that the point of government is to take care of them. And they first got the taste of this in this Plymouth colony. The less industrious, Bradford noted, members of this colony, they would come to work in the fields late. They were slow and easy in their labors, he noticed, because they knew they didn’t have to work. hard they did not have to exert as much effort as they would have to had they were they were forced to rely upon their own labor they knew that they and their families no matter what kind of effort they put into work in the land they and their families were going to get an equal share of everything whatever the group produced so where is the incentive to be more diligent in your effort when you’re going to get an equal share regardless. And the colonists that showed up on time or early and worked hard and stayed late, they began feeling incredibly resentful of the less industrious bunch of colonists who did not want to work. They were mad that their efforts would be redistributed to their lazy neighbors. So then they lost their incentive. So they started coming in late. And they were less energetic in clearing the fields and working the land. Bradford noted in his diary, quote, For the young men that were able and fit for labor and service did repine that they should spend their time and strength to work for other men’s wives and children without recompense. The strong or men of parts had no more division of food, clothes, etc. than he that was weak and not able to do a quarter the other could. This was thought injustice. The aged and graver men to be ranked and equalized in labor and food, clothes, etc., with the meaner and younger sort, thought it some indignant and disrespect unto them. And for men’s wives to be commanded to do service for other men as dressing their meat or washing their clothes, they deemed it a kind of slavery. Neither could husbands brook it. So they had resentment. They immediately fostered not brotherhood, but resentment. They de-incentivized hard work. And if you can imagine, the harvest was sparse and meager. They had to ration equal shares, and it was not enough that first winter to ward off starvation and death. They were only at this barely two years and they realized they had to do something else. They could not go through another winter where they were starving to death and burying people because even though the resources were aplenty, no one wanted to do the work. So what they did is they tried something completely new. Instead of the hippie, kumbaya, hand-holding stuff, they thought, why not allow people an allotment of land? And then from that allotment, they would keep whatever they put into it. So they introduced something radically different to the colony. Again, this was barely after two years, barely two years. They introduced private property. Bradford, in his diary, wrote, And so assigned to every family a parcel of land according to the proportion of their number for that end. And this had very good success for it made all hands very industrious. So as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been by any means the governor or any other could use and saved him a great deal of trouble and gave far better content. The women now went willingly into the field and took their little ones with them to suck corn, which before would allege weakness and inability. whom to have compelled would have been thought great tyranny and oppression, end quote. So the first harvest that they had introduced private property, Bradford noted in his diary that the Plymouth colony, they had a bounty of food. They were trading with each other. They had their own little commerce. Not only did they have so much food, they had more food than they knew what to do with. Industry was the order of the day. There was dignity in what they were doing. They weren’t having to get a handout from their fellow man. They were all equal in their ability to create or produce or contribute. And they got to keep the fruits of their labor and bless other people that may have struggled with one thing or another. And so when harvest time came, Bradford noted that they had surpluses and they all began trading with each other. He writes, quote, by this time harvest was come and instead of famine, now God gave them plenty and the face of things was changed to the rejoicing of the hearts of many for which they blessed God and the effect of their planting was well seen for all had one way or another. pretty well to bring the year about, and some of the abler sort and more industrious had to spare and sell to others, so as any general want or famine hath not been amongst them since to this day. They rejected the socialist utopia, which interestingly is Latin for something that doesn’t exist, for actual real world individualism. And he said that What they had tried, because the Greeks had promised that you could achieve a paradise through collectivism as opposed to being an individual. And Bradford was like, you know, this has been tried sundry years. And they may well convince of the vanity and conceit of Plato’s and other ancients. He said that the taking away of property, bringing commonwealth would make them happy and flourishing. And he said, but that was not to be. And they realize that this kind of approach is incompatible with the human spirit. Charity is not compulsory. You can’t force people to do it. That takes away the spirit of charity. It takes away the dual purpose of it. And… Bradford concluded with let none object. This is man’s corruption. Nothing to the cure itself. And he said God in his wisdom saw another course fitter for them talking of the colonists. They chose to bless other people. They chose individually of their own volition to help others and engage in trade and do all of this. That is the animating spirit of liberty. And it’s a difficult thing. If you could bottle it and sell it, that’d be great. It’s a difficult thing to catch because there are people who want to be taken care of. There are people in this country who think that by being citizens of this country that you already are, you’re somehow like a ward of the state. And there is risk and freedom. And that’s the beauty of freedom because there’s also comebacks and freedom.
SPEAKER 05 :
And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s Quick Five.
SPEAKER 09 :
Why, hello there. All right, so Elton John apparently lost sight in his right eye. Yeah, he says he can’t see anything in his right eye. But he does wear phenomenal glasses. Let’s just put that like that. He’s 77 years old. He said that he was battling an infection and he hopes he’s going to be able to see properly again. He can’t work on new music because of his limitations with his vision. And he said he lost his eyesight in his right eye in July because he had an infection. He was in the south of France. So, I don’t know. Just, wow. Wow. That’s a bummer. Better start writing music because everybody else out here blows Sir Elton. Drivers stranded and they walked out of airports to find their cars missing at DFW. 52 cars worth $5 million were stolen by an organized crime group. This is why I literally will never drive a car to an airport. This is what I have always planned for happening. People think, no, what if an organized crime network steals all your cars? So drivers were stranded. They walked out of the airports to find their cars missing. And then, and this was at DFW, they said $5 million in organized crime groups stole all the… Isn’t this what Fast and Furious was all about? Pretty much. This is the movie. They’ve been running this investigation since February of last year. They’ve identified 14 suspects. The group is based in Houston and they were using a license plate reader. Three men arrested. Thanks to this license plate reader, it alerted police of a suspect vehicle entering the airport. And they were able to get three occupants. They’re still looking for the rest. But yeah, that’s insane. So they would just show up. And like people’s cars are gone. Their cars are just gone. This is wild. Let’s see. Let’s a couple of other. Oh, a man has 500 bikes for Africa refused at the port because they were deemed unfit for purpose because some of them needed repairs. There were bikes that they were going to Africa and they couldn’t be. They had to be scrapped 500. That’s insane. We have a lot more in store, including some stuff in Florida applied to the nation. Stick with us.

SPEAKER 09 :
Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you. And you can listen terrestrially, coast to coast, every single state in the union. And you can also watch the simulcast, Channel 347, DirecTV, X, Facebook, Rumble, YouTube, everywhere. One of the things that fascinated me about this last election was, I mean, drill it down to get in the weeds a little bit, was the claim that, oh, there are so many hunters that were not registered to vote. And isn’t that crazy? It didn’t seem to be the big issue in Florida because Florida is really the blueprint for the nation and how things need to operate. I mean, I’m just looking at the stuff that they’ve done in Florida. And, you know, it dawns on you, this is common sense outreach. Why are we not copying this in every… Why are we not doing this in Texas? Texas! Why is Florida beating Texas? It’s not supposed to be like that. And I bring this up because all the attention… With regards to Florida was in amendments three and four, and that was the abortion stuff and the big weed bill or the big weed amendment. But what didn’t get a lot of attention was was this victory that they had a constitutional amendment. that protects hunting and fishing. And I think this is like the 20-some-odd state in the union that actually has made this a constitutionally protected thing, which you would think it already is, but it’s not. But good on Florida for making this happen. But what gets me, going back to my point, is I was looking at how they did their outreach. Four and a half million text messages, 500,000 mail pieces. They sent it out to sportsmen and to women, to hunters, to anglers, to everybody, people who had not even voted before. Think about How much, and that was for Amendment 2, the turnout that they were able to generate through that and just they really siloed it in and they got that turnout and now it’s protected and it went over that 60% threshold where the other amendments did not even near it. One of the people who was spearheading this, this huge victory, is Luke Hilgeman. And he is with the International Order of Teddy Roosevelt. And you can find them on, I almost said Twitter, on X, at IOTROfficial. I’m going to not call it Twitter at some point. Luke Hilgeman joins us now via Skype. Luke, congratulations. This is a huge victory. And it didn’t get a lot of attention. But you guys did such great outreach with this, where everyone else seemed to struggle to get hunters and anglers to register to vote.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, Dana, thank you so much for having me on. And you hit it spot on. The right to fish and hunt is now forever protected in Florida as the 28th, 24th state to adopt constitutional right to hunt fish. And our outreach was different. We depended on grassroots leaders, folks from all Florida, folks from multiple different groups that were out there with us fighting the good word about fishing and hunting being in jeopardy. There is a radical movement out there that was trying to criminalize hunting and fishing in states like Oregon, Colorado, and multiple other Western states. And what we did in Florida not only surpassed the vote totals for abortion and weed by nearly a million votes, it also surpassed the amount of votes that Donald Trump was able to receive in a historic victory in Florida by 930,000. Wow.
SPEAKER 09 :
That’s huge. And one of the reasons that you were so successful, and this is something from the memo that you had sent out your organization, was how you were strategizing the manner and tone of your messaging. Tell me about that.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, so when we went to the field, we found out very quickly that talking to people about fishing and hunting as being a humane and natural way to manage Florida’s wildlife saw a huge spike in the amount of support that we had, even for people who don’t fish and hunt. And we stayed disciplined to that message. We built an influencer network of people, more than 60 influencers in the state of Florida with a combined reach over 35 million people who shared that messaging, shared our messages out there with their followers. And then we did over 300 grassroots events targeting not just anglers and hunters, but citizens all across the state, talking to them about the threats to fishing and hunting and why this was such an important part of Florida’s identity and locking these traditions down forever in Florida. And I think the biggest political part of it, Dana, was that we found 1.7 million hunters and anglers in the state of Florida who are low propensity voters who weren’t even registered to vote. We had a half a million of them who weren’t registered to vote. We were able to register 25,000 new voters and turn out a significant number of those 1.7 million low propensity voters who put us way over the top of the 60% threshold.
SPEAKER 09 :
That’s amazing. This is one of the most successful voter outreaches and victories that I’ve ever heard, because from what I understand, just like the support and the votes for this just beat any other kind of proposal, any other amendment like this before. I mean, it really set a record.
SPEAKER 04 :
Absolutely did. And we had more people join us to defend fishing and hunting rights in the state of Florida. Amendment 2, which means that it was a historic vote where we had more people voting on this amendment than any other state that passed it before.
SPEAKER 09 :
I read that the amendment had majority support in all 67 counties. That’s insane. I’ve never seen so many people agree on something like that so much of my life.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, we were blessed. Again, we had an incredible team of people who were dedicated to protecting hunting and fishing rights across the state that were working tirelessly to make sure that this victory happened. And the best part now is IOTR plans to take this blueprint to the rest of the 26 states that don’t have these protections and try to get them on the ballot as soon as we can.
SPEAKER 09 :
That’s amazing that 26 states do not have these protections. That kind of floors me. Because when I was reading that it was the 24th state, I’m like, wait a minute, this isn’t all 50? This is really shocking to me. You also added 25,000 new registrations of these are younger men, men under the age of 25. It’s amazing because they don’t vote. And they registered and they voted. This demo never votes. And they voted for you. You got them to vote.
SPEAKER 04 :
Absolutely. You put fishing and hunting on the ballot. You educate them about the threats to what they love to do. And these guys are going to show up at the polls and they are going to vote to protect those rights forever like we saw in Florida. And while they’re there, I think they’re going to also cast ballots for conservatives who protect these traditions across the board. And I’m really excited to tell the story about what we achieved in Florida and look forward to rolling this out to multiple states here in the next couple of
SPEAKER 09 :
I can’t wait to see you do that. Also, I have to note that the the margin of victory that you had and your outreach with this up until everyone always talked about the blueprint in Colorado when they had progressives come in and they were anti gun, anti hunting, anti everything. And in two election cycles, they were able to flip everything. you didn’t need two election cycles. You actually, and I was comparing like their outreach to the outreach that was taking place with these amendments in this last election. I mean, it’s not even comparable. I mean, you just, you beat them to death rhetorically. I mean, you smoked them. The margins are, it’s not even there. That to me is, so now we can stop talking about the Colorado blueprint and we can just only talk about the Florida blueprint because this is the only one that has consecutively worked in every single election.
SPEAKER 04 :
Amen. Amen. And what we saw is $400 million was spent on behalf of Amendments 3 and 4, as you mentioned in the early part of the interview. They had $400 million spent to try and pass abortion and weed in Florida. We did this with about $8 million and just really doubled down on the grassroots strategy and connecting people with the information about why these traditions are so important to the future of the state and the future of our country.
SPEAKER 09 :
I love this. Well, this is a huge success. And it kind of got lost in all the three amendments, three and four, which, you know, I get. And they were very important things to talk about. But this was this is also hugely significant. And what’s even more is that the younger generation that never shows up, you got them to show up and vote. You got them registered to vote. You got them show up to vote. You got the low propensity voters to go and vote. I mean, these are historically important. demos that you can never count on. And not only could you count on them, but you’re going to be able to count on them in future elections. And you’re going to be able to expand on these victories. This is this is huge. Luke, this is this is huge. I mean, congratulations on this, because I don’t know. I just haven’t seen a victory by this margin. And it’s good to win. It’s good to have some.
SPEAKER 04 :
It feels great to do that. And again, we look forward to taking this and passing in as many states as we can very soon.
SPEAKER 09 :
Absolutely. Luke, thank you so much. International Order of Teddy Roosevelt or T. Roosevelt IOTR. Appreciate you. Happy Thanksgiving.
SPEAKER 04 :
Thank you very much. Happy Thanksgiving, Dana.
SPEAKER 09 :
And in two election cycles, it flipped to blue and they started going after guns and hunting and everything else. And it just became unbearable. And they tried to you had a huge coalition of Republicans, conservatives and libertarians, very grassroots. And it was, I think it was in Glendale, Colorado. That’s where it kind of all seemed to coalesce. And they were organizing to push back. And they got some things. Like they recalled the Senate pro tem. And they got a couple of other state lawmakers out. But they weren’t able to do every, because it was almost a little too late. But they are still fighting there. And the left bragged about that. And then they said, oh, well, we were able to do this to Colorado. We’re going to do the same thing to Texas. They weren’t able to flip Texas. But they have made it difficult. But they weren’t able to flip Texas. And in Florida, the opposite happened. And they did it in one election cycle by margins greater than that, than what we saw with the Colorado blueprint. So this is the way forward. Did you hear the difference in money? What was it? 400 to eight. Wow. What is with, okay, the left burning money and losing elections. Harris is 20 million in debt. She blew a billion dollars. I mean, paying off celebrities, you know, I get it. You know, that’s this is wild. I mean, I’m telling you, I just find it’s just wild. But this this is huge. And also Florida’s expanded supermajority is being called possibly unprecedented. They already had a supermajority. They’ve expanded it. Now, not every person that has an R after their name is a good lawmaker, as we know. We’ve seen that before, especially after we were debating everything with the Senate majority race, right? The Senate majority leader. But to have a supermajority. There are going to be, there’s gonna be a little bit more of a protection for the lawmakers that are Republican, that are from real purple areas, like the ones that have not wanted to be open-minded, for instance, about permitless carry in Florida or reciprocity or something like that, that have always kind of dragged it. That’s been, maybe that’ll change, maybe. I know with the red flag law, somebody’s gonna have to bring a lawsuit. in order to flip some of that. That’s going to have to be litigated. But, man, this is huge, though. To expand that, now you’ve got to get good quality conservatives in those state seats. We have a lot more on the way.
SPEAKER 05 :
It’s his life mission to make bad decisions. It’s time for Florida Man.
SPEAKER 09 :
I feel like this goes into a headspace with regards to like super serious gaming than I ever wanted to go into. So I just really quickly, there’s this story where this one gamer who’s Kane, you’re going to love his name. Moist critical.
SPEAKER 05 :
Oh yeah. It’s Charlie. I know Charlie.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah. Claims that he was in this case, Billy Mitchell versus Carl jobs. And he, they actually had him passing gas on camera used as evidence in this court case. For real. He testified against this guy named Billy Mitchell in an ongoing court case, and it included footage of him blowing his own horn, so to speak, on camera, using his evidence. And, yeah, they, I, okay, yeah. We can’t play any of the video where he talks about it because of the way he talks about it. But it’s a suit that is, they’re arguing over $450,000 in damages because it was a suit raised by Mitchell who said that Jop’s YouTube videos about him cheating at Donkey Kong were defamation. A grown man made a video about another grown man cheating at Donkey Kong. And now it’s a $450,000 defamation case. And another gamer had his own farts used in court as evidence. Not even making this up. That is, there you go. Now, if you think that your family, what you got to deal with at Thanksgiving is bad, you could be, one of these guys could be it. I’m just saying, you know. A Florida man is wanted for stealing money from a tip jar because he’s a loser. from a Florida establishment. It’s a guy who stole money from a tip jar at a Fort Myers establishment. He grabbed it on camera. $600 and left. He just took $600 and left. White t-shirt, white cap, blue shorts, blue shoes. He’s got identifiable tattoos. They’re still looking for him. You’re supposed to call Crime Stoppers. Do you think people care that there’s surveillance cameras or they’re so ubiquitous that people just don’t care anymore? Is that why?
SPEAKER 05 :
I think it’s more they don’t care anymore.
SPEAKER 09 :
I mean, I don’t know. It just… Okay. Let’s see here. I got to… Oh, boy. So, this guy, a Florida man, is busted because he tried to run over kids waiting for the school bus. I don’t know. They said it was a bizarre and harrowing scene, said deputies. Lake County, Florida, a man was arrested Friday morning. The Lake County Sheriff’s Office says it was a bizarre and harrowing scene at a school bus stop. They tried to run over kids at a bus stop in an area of Mill Street. The man then allegedly went to a nearby location where he had grabbed and attacked a female teen as she walked to her bus stop. 59-year-old Arthur James Young was finally apprehended. And the moms, all the parents were just in hysterics. One of the women, Vivian Little, said her son Akeem called and said that someone just tried to run him over. He’s a crazy dude. He’s just trying to run everybody over and chasing everybody. They were all running for their lives. This poor kid’s like crying on the phone to his mom. Like, can you imagine? So then he was in a black Dodge Ram pickup. And he actually grabbed one girl and tried to choke her. And so they said that the police responded. There was a concealed carry permit holder, apparently, who fired a gunshot to try to stop the attack. Fired around to try to stop it. Just wild. So he’s being charged with aggravated assault, child abuse, kidnapping, and several other charges. I need a break after that story. Good night. He’s like slapping and choking everybody.
SPEAKER 05 :
I’m reading ahead on the story. It says here that the sheriff said they’ve had interactions with him before. And apparently the mom has known him for a long time. That was like some information to hide in the story way at the end.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah. I really want to read this story, but I just don’t know. It’s about a Florida inmate, Kane.
SPEAKER 05 :
Oh, I know which one you’re talking about. Well, we only have about 30 seconds here.
SPEAKER 09 :
Okay, 29-year-old Daisy Link and this other, I don’t know who, this guy, Joan DePaz, they were inmates at Turner Guilford Night Correctional Center, and apparently they’re facing murder charges. Essentially, the Florida inmate is pregnant. She says she’s a miracle baby, and she says that The conception happens through an air vent from a fellow prisoner. And I’m going to leave it there. We’re just going to be done with Florida Man right now. Third hour on the way. Thank heavens.
SPEAKER 10 :
Not only am I not interested in your opinion, I’m not even going to call you by your name. You’re 23 years old. I don’t really give a what you think. And let me tell you another huge error, huge error is when people said campaigns need to reflect progressive values. No, they don’t.
SPEAKER 09 :
James Carville, maybe some of those young staffers should listen to him. He’s a hoot, dude. He is one of the funniest people. He was also when I was the token conservative at CNN, like back in 2012, he was the nicest person there. He was so nice and so kind. He and his wife were wonderful. I know you probably wouldn’t think that, but he is. He is. He just didn’t like these dumb staffers that go in and they want to act like they know more than he does about this stuff. He’s Carvel actually used to win elections. Now they don’t anymore. Now these people don’t anymore. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lashley, top of this third hour. Oh, my goodness. Make sure to catch us on the chats at Rumble. You can find us on X as well, terrestrially across the country, Channel 347, DirecTV. So, yeah, I’m just, it’s pretty, they need to listen to him, but he’s mad. He’s just done. I made mention earlier about the pendulum maybe perhaps swinging the other way. I wanted to play Audio Soundbite 9 for you because this is the CEO of Walmart. They are rolling back their DEI policies, believe it or not. And they’re just the latest U.S. company to do this. Listen to this.
SPEAKER 13 :
First, let me say, like many companies all across the United States, we’ve been on a journey and we continue to be on a journey. And what we’re trying to do is to ensure that every customer, every associate feels welcome here to shop and to feel like they belong. And that term belong, we’ve been talking about belonging now For almost two years, early 2023, we started talking about belonging. And we’re going to continue to make the best decisions we can that makes everyone, our customers, our associates, feel like this is an environment they can shop in.
SPEAKER 09 :
So this is me as CEO. I don’t give a rat’s ass about belonging. Just buy our stuff. End scene. That’s it. That’s the quote. That’s it. You sell things. You don’t have to affirm anything for anyone. Can you imagine someone to go into a Walmart and looking at the products? I don’t know. I’m looking at these bags of dog and cat food and I just don’t know if they affirm how I choose to get it on in my private life. I just don’t know. I just don’t feel like it’s affirming me because it’s a product. It’s a product. It doesn’t have to affirm you, Cynthia. It does not have to affirm anything. You’re making a purchase. That’s it. I hate this. They said that they’ve removed some product like chest binders for kids. I can’t even believe that was the thing that they had or had to take out. They’re not going to extend the Racial Equity Center, which I don’t even know what that is. And it launched in 2020. They’re going to ditch the terms in Kane and Juan, who are basically white adjacent. They hate these terms. They bristle if you say Latinx. They don’t even want the letters D and E and I at all together. Nope. No more. And they’re going to focus on the term belonging. Why do you have to focus on any term? Why? I feel like, you know, Elmo, when he gets real excited or Kermit the Frog when he’s dancing for Christmas and he just gets really excited. I feel like that. Why does there have to be any term? Why? Why do you have to? Who did this? I mean, I get it. They’re getting away from it. But do you have to give someone the crutch of a term? Right? You see what I mean? Why do you have to have it? Belonging. What? What’s about belonging? You know who belongs here? Anyone who’s got money to buy your products. What? Belonging. What? That’s how that works. I didn’t know that, did you? Why are you here at the Walmart? That’s what the Walmart greeter should ask. Excuse me, why are you here? I might buy some of your stuff. Okay, you belong. Right? That’s how that works. So what gets me is so now they have John Deere, Ford, other companies. The Caterpillar Company? Caterpillar. Cain? Yeah. What do the Caterpillar people do again?
SPEAKER 05 :
The heavy construction equipment. Oh, heavy construction equipment.
SPEAKER 1 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah. Why do they have to have DEI stuff?
SPEAKER 05 :
That is a great question. I think we know the answer is they don’t. They don’t need it.
SPEAKER 09 :
I mean, who was like, well, let’s see. Here at Caterpillar, we make big, heavy construction equipment. We got to start using these phrases, Latinx, and start doing all this stuff. I feel like if you’re focusing on that, then you’re not focusing on making your stuff. So they’re doing DEI changes. They’re requiring that all corporate training be oriented to focus on business operate because it wasn’t before. What? That’s amazing to me. Yeah. So they they’ve they have they’re bringing in an external speaker to talk to the Caterpillar employees, the Caterpillar people. And now they got to have approval from senior VPs who make sure speakers are vetted, et cetera, et cetera. They must have had some humdingers before if they got to go through all that. I just it’s amazing to me that everything like Coors and Ford. The they ended their participation in the and this is a long one. Human Rights Campaign Corporate Equality Index campaign. What is that, Dana? What is the Human Rights Campaign Corporate Equality Index? Well, that is the annual survey and report used to measure, quote, policies, practices, and benefits pertinent to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, LBGTQ plus employees. I don’t even know what any of that means. All I heard was blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. That’s all I heard. Actually, I heard, I understood myself just then better than I did with us. Yeah. Yeah, I guess that’s like the behavioral thing. Have you seen that? They have their criteria. It’s a roadmap and benchmarking tool for businesses. And I guess they give you a score. You get points. Inclusive benefits. Things like that. Apparently you get alphabet benefits. I don’t even know what that means. What are alphabet benefits do you get? I don’t know. Support an inclusive culture. 25 points possible. What about shutting up and not being annoying? How many points do you get for that? Wondering. Corporate social responsibility. This kind of goes on to, you know, the stuff that we talked about, like, why is it that out of all of the charging stations that we had, how much was it? 7 billion, something like that, allocated to spend on it. And we only got two of them built. And that’s because they, and this is a true thing. You had to give your – the government could only consider contracts from businesses that I guess had one of these like a specific score. And they checked all of these identity politic boxes. So, well, if you’re like a regular lesbian and you are up against a one-armed lesbian, then guess what? The one-armed lesbian is going to get the contract and you’re not. If you’re a lesbian and you’re up against a dude who says that he’s a woman, guess what? The lesbian loses. It’s the dude who says he’s a woman. Why? Because he checks a bigger identity politic box than you do. See, like that’s the stuff. And then you had to have like translators and have all this stuff in your business that have nothing to do with your business. You’re literally building a charging station. Why do you have to put on like community events? You’re a company that builds charging stations. Companies don’t need to put on community. You need to demonstrate your social responsibility. You need to STFU. No. This is so dumb. Golly. Belonging. How many times did he say that word in that clip? There’s a few. Yeah. There’s a few times. I mean, it was almost like a call to action. Right? Right. Good night. I don’t know. But so you got General Motors or no Ford. That’s the other one that’s there. They’re dropping out. Oh, speaking of car companies. So the New York Times is claiming that automakers want Trump to keep EV mandates. But apparently that’s not true. New York Times were in this story saying, oh, yes, they want to. They’re having a coordinated lobbying push to to convince POTUS. POTUS elect to maintain all these climate rules, forcing these EV purchases. But apparently that’s not exactly true, according to the Free Beacon. Because Stellantis said that, yeah, we’re not pushing for any of this stuff. They completely contradicted the New York Times report. They said and the New York Times said that Stellantis was actually going to lobby the Trump administration to keep these mandates. And Stellantis said that’s a lie. Stellantis told Free Beacon, we absolutely are not doing that. That is a lie. They said we are not amongst the lobbyists and all these people from these car companies if there is one that’s pushing for this. No one’s buying the damn things. If you want an EV to fart around with, fine. Nobody cares. But don’t force all of us to get EVs. They’re ugly cars. They’re ugly, ugly, ugly. Golly, they’re so ugly. It kills my soul. Oh my gosh. I see them and it’s like everything about modernity that I hate. Soulless design. They all look like those Eva bots from WALL-E. They all look like that. They all look the same, right? It’s some Stepford Wife stuff. Everybody’s got their Stepford Wife EV. It’s one of the reasons why I like, oddly enough, the Cybertruck. Because it’s a giant middle finger. It’s literally shaped like a child’s imagination. And it’s brutalist. And it’s kind of ugly. And completely ridiculous. And is it aerodynamic? I think there’s questions. But it’s so ridiculous. It actually… mocks modernity in a way doesn’t it at least that’s my interpretation of it right it goes a lot deeper than a banana duct tape to a wall just saying nobody’s buying these cars though And I just, whenever I would have to get, if I had to take my car to the shop and I would have to get, they always try to give you an EV. Oh man, and I’m a brat. They know when I’m coming through the door, like, oh my gosh, do not give this woman an EV loaner because she hates them and she will complain for every second that she’s in this office. Oh my gosh. Because I can’t stand them. I can’t. It’s weird, Kane. I’m just saying. I don’t really care about any of this stuff. Oil and gas is renewable. It’s renewable and it’s great. It’s a great, plentiful, affordable energy. And the United States, without the convincing of federal mandates, we’ve already been coming up and pioneering. clean, environmentally, more environmentally respectful extraction methods before anybody else ever did. Before anybody in government thought of it, we were already doing it. You know why? Because we like to maintain the business, right? You know that if you’re just damaging the earth and you’re not taking care of stuff and you’re just, you know, sloppy extraction, all this stuff, you’re not going to have much to work with in the future. And so it’s all about you know, prolonging. And it’s about, you know, making sure that, you know, you, you have an industry and you’re not just destroying everything to the point where you can’t have one anymore. They did that. They didn’t have to have the government pressure them to do that. The government comes in and acts like it scored something. Oh, look, we’re going to pressure these people to do exactly what they’re already doing. Well, I mean, some of the stuff actually makes it to where your cars are more fuel inefficient, which is a whole other issue. But nobody wants… People aren’t one of these EVs. Stellantis is like, we ain’t lobbying for nothing. We’re not doing nothing.
SPEAKER 05 :
And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s Quick Five.
SPEAKER 09 :
Chinese Pizza Hut launches deep-fried frog pizza. I could go my whole life without this story. It’s their… It’s China’s Pizza Hut franchise. They’re literally serving deep fried frogs on their pizzas. And there’s also photos of it. I don’t want to look at it. Oh, no. They said it’s for a limited time. It’s just a specialized pizza. And it has a red sauce base, parsley, and a whole fried bullfrog on top. And then two halves of hard-boiled egg with black olives appear as the eyes of the frog. That’s absolutely nasty. That’s so gross. That’s so nasty. So, yeah, that’s…
SPEAKER 05 :
Look, I like frog legs. Don’t get me wrong. I think frog legs are good.
SPEAKER 09 :
But I don’t like that. And then you put eggs in a whole bullfrog.
SPEAKER 05 :
I don’t know.
SPEAKER 09 :
No, that’s OK. A South Carolina town’s entire police force has resigned. They’re looking at it’s the it’s PD town’s entire police force. Yeah, the the PD PD. The entire all the PD PDs, they resigned. The police chief, Bob Hale, broke his silence on Thursday saying he was resigning after a year of taking over. They said the town councils created a hostile work environment. They made significant cuts to their funding. They’re having trouble doing their jobs because they can’t get resources. And they said that like one guy was on his way to a call and his and he said his car just stopped, broke down and doesn’t work anymore. And they’re not, they have no resources. And they, wow, just, okay, it’s the PD PD, you know, take care of them. The how the happiest people spend their weekends, they treat them like vacations. You’ve got to learn how to and this is one of the reasons why you don’t really see me that often on social media over the weekend, I make a conscious effort to choose not to do it. Because you don’t want to get burned out, right? Nobody wants to get burned out, especially if you do it, you know, every day and you’ve done it every day for 20 years. And that’s, it is true, like to treat your weekends as much as you can, like have a vacation mindset on the weekend or on your days off. Have a vacation mindset. Do not do work. Usually everyone likes to rush through all this task that they have through the week to get done. And they do on the weekend. I think you need to actually partition those out all throughout the week so that your whole day off isn’t that because I think it is incredibly important. It is. Let’s see this. A guy, a guy was charged with stealing a shopping cart of Red Bull leading O’Fallon cane police on a 100 money mile per hour, 120 mile per hour pursuit. Red Bull gives you wings but not a pass. That’s the difference. Stick with us. We’ve got more in store.

SPEAKER 09 :
Most people, if they had shot and killed a woman, they’d probably, I don’t know, maybe go to ground for a little while, maybe forever, not run their mouths about stuff. But if you’re Alec Baldwin, audio soundbite eight, instead, you’re going to do this.
SPEAKER 15 :
You might not learn from the news. Television news in the United States is a business. They have to make money. And again, not to go into great detail about that, but there’s a hole, there’s a vacuum. There is a gap, if you will, in information for Americans. Americans are very uninformed about reality, what’s really going on.
SPEAKER 09 :
So we’re uninformed about reality. What does that mean? He’s in Turin, Italy. And he’s saying that Americans are stupid about reality. What is he talking about? What do you mean, what reality? We all got some questions. What is he talking about? What? The election?
SPEAKER 05 :
We’re talking about the election of Trump.
SPEAKER 09 :
I mean, he can be mad about it, but that doesn’t mean that people are uneducated.
SPEAKER 05 :
Yes, I agree with you there. But he clearly believes what he’s saying.
SPEAKER 09 :
I mean, he hasn’t changed. And shooting and killing that woman on the set of his film Rust, of which he was executive producer and also culpable, that… He hasn’t changed. He’s still a hothead. He still has a bad temper. He’s still completely irrational, reckless. Nothing’s changed with him at all whatsoever. I can’t stand these celebrities that are like this. Like, for instance, Audio Soundbite 11. I don’t normally play anything from The View, but there’s this. Eyes rolling.
SPEAKER 03 :
I think what we’re all saying is we’re going to sit and watch. We’re going to wait and see because we can’t do anything else except… I’m not going to wait and see. I mean, this guy’s told us he’s a retribution. What are you going to do? What are you doing? There’s nothing to be done until you know what you’re fighting. It’s pissing in the wind doesn’t help. You just get a weapon. What I’m saying is I have no false expectations that at 78, he’s going to all of a sudden turn into a human.
SPEAKER 09 :
I love the nepo baby on the corner that likes to pretend that she wasn’t a big butt kisser for a White House role. And she never her dad does World Night Daily. She would never be on that show if her dad did not do World Night Daily and wasn’t like a digital publisher. I mean, absolute nepo baby. And the only reason she really tries to obscure her history and butt kissing to get a job in the last administration. This is the difference between loyalty and submission. Oh, she’ll submit. But she’s not. You know, there’s no loyalty. She’ll submit. But there’s no. And then she turns around and goes on the view and does what she does. So I don’t know. I I do they do any what do they also they do on that show? Why do people watch that show? I’ve never understood it. I’ve guest hosted it. I’ve never understood. My favorite was when and I Barbara Walters was still alive. So it was a bit ago. And I was Jenny McCarthy. I was on with her. I sat right next to her and she was amazing. She was very supportive of her and encouraging. She didn’t hang out with the other women either. I got the sense that they didn’t like her. People give her a bad rep because of her MTV days or whatever, but she was actually the nicest, the most common sense person that was on that show. She legit was. And she was super kind. But Barbara Walters was like, so tell me, do you like shooting guns? And they’re playing behind me on the big screen. Me literally shooting every gun I own. Well, most of them, like rifles, pistol, everything. And I’m like, yeah, I guess a little bit. You know, like, what do you mean? What kind of question is that? But, you know, it’s interesting. I pushed back. I was very polite, but I pushed back when I needed to. They just could not. understand me and when i said oh the more when did when they when they asked me well when did you actually become more conservative and i said the more educated i got oh my gosh the whole audience gasped and the women there went oh what do you and i could tell they were going to go do you mean that we’re stupid and i was like well i just think we’re on different intellectual tracks They were trying to figure out if I was insulting them. I was, but I was doing it in a nice way. But it was just, I don’t know. I don’t know what, and the issue is like they, who watches the television shows that they have the actors on to talk about? The only thing I watch is if Taylor Sheridan makes it or if it’s about baking or history and that’s it. I don’t really watch anything else. I don’t even watch Hallmark Christmas stuff anymore, really. I do enjoy looking at all the new titles because they’re all the same, right? Have you guys started your Hallmark Christmas stuff? No. Have you played any Christmas music, Kane? No. So that’s the thing. So when we roll back here after Thanksgiving, do we immediately start with the Christmas music? Should I have my trees in the background? Do we go full on happy birthday Jesus immediately? Like, what do we do?
SPEAKER 05 :
There are stations across the country that started right after Halloween playing Christmas music.
SPEAKER 09 :
No one does the 12 days of Christmas anymore. Why?
SPEAKER 05 :
You mean the song or?
SPEAKER 09 :
Like the practice.
SPEAKER 05 :
I don’t know. What’s the 12 days of Christmas?
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, 12 days of Christmas you celebrate and that’s like your holiday period. And it’s from the birth and then after you’re celebrating the birth. We just celebrate up to the moment of the birth and then we’re like, okay, we’re done. You see what I mean?
SPEAKER 05 :
Yeah, I hear you.
SPEAKER 09 :
Why can’t we go back to that? I mean, back to like Tudor times, I guess.
SPEAKER 05 :
More days of celebration? Okay, twist my arm.
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, I mean, just be a little bit more realistic about the lead up. You know what I mean? Like, I don’t need to be seeing the Christmas trees out in September.
SPEAKER 05 :
Is each day like a small gift, like Hanukkah? Like, how does it work? Like, every day is a small gift?
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, like, that’s why they had the 12 days of Christmas song.
SPEAKER 05 :
Are there any dreidels?
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, I mean, that’s a, I mean, I guess if you want to be there, there can be. But that’s, you know, dreidel, dreidel, dreidel.
SPEAKER 05 :
I remember those Advent calendars, though. I remember as a kid.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah. But it should be. I mean, that’s how it was. I mean, it used to actually be. 12 days of Christmas, but now you’ve had holiday creep, right? So it used to be all like, you know, sometime in December, you’ll do it. And then, and I think that had to do with art with fake trees and then artificial trees looking really nice and going onto the market. And so people didn’t have to go get real trees anymore because didn’t seem like your Christmas stuff was limited to how long your tree would live. Yeah, so now you’ve got artificial trees. It doesn’t matter, right? Doesn’t matter. But it’s the birth of Christ and then the coming of the Magi, and that’s the three wise men. So that’s the 12 days of Christmas. So it starts with the birth of Christ, and it’s supposed to end with the coming of the Magi. And the… And it begins on the 25th, and it’s supposed to run up until, what, the 6th? And then you’ve got the four weeks preceding Christmas, that’s Advent. Some of it, I think, is brushed off as Catholicism, but that’s not how it was always, it wasn’t always like that. I mean, even during, you know, Henry VIII’s time, and he was, all of this, I mean, they, so I don’t know. They, I just like the idea of 12 days of. Yeah, me too. Because you lead up to, oh, she had her baby. All right, we’re done.
SPEAKER 05 :
Is it like ham every day or every other day is turkey?
SPEAKER 09 :
Sure. And then you would have, I don’t know if you get the Lords of Leaping and Ladies Dancing and all that stuff, but that’s how it went traditionally. Anyway, my whole point of bringing this up is I haven’t really put, we have our lights up, but we haven’t really put anything else up, but that’s going to change. That’s going to start changing beginning this week immediately because the Christmas stuff has got to go up. I’m just ready. I think everybody’s ready. It was a really weird political cycle. Everybody’s ready for it. But the Hallmark stuff, I’m telling you, it’s the person who owns a snow globe factory and she comes, the girl comes in from out of town and she meets the snow globe factory owner and he’s a really nice guy and do sparks fly? I don’t know. Watch this Christmas movie. And these people have like completely ridiculous jobs. I literally watched one where the dad, I’m not, I swear to you, hands to sky. The dude carved toys. He was like a literal wood carver of toys. And he had this big two-story craftsman style house in the Northeast. I’m like, dude, you would not have that kind of, you’re not making that salary carving, hand carving toys. And it’s just you and your little workshop craftsmanship. Shut up. It looks like someone went and staged it as part of a Santa’s elf village for photo ops for families near the PetSmart. Stop it. And yeah, she and she assumes her dad’s workshop and the house and all this. And I’m to believe that I’m to believe that. Right. No, that will not abide. All right. We’ve got some other serious stuff here, too. I’m sorry. I don’t mean to spend so much time on all of that. But, you know, we also get some of this audio out of the way. Although Steve says they should make a Hallmark movie about the villages. The villages.
SPEAKER 05 :
What do they call them?
SPEAKER 09 :
America’s friendliest hometown.
SPEAKER 05 :
They would call that Not All Old People Are Innocent. That’s what they were called.
SPEAKER 09 :
I know you think that old people aren’t innocent. We’re not here to talk about that. Oh, my gosh. Gosh, what do I want to do? I want to end the show on a happy note, and I don’t want to be like, now, back to hell. Here’s Audio Soundbite 4, where Venezuelan gang members are recruiting kids in illegal alien shelters. Let’s go ahead and actually play it.
SPEAKER 01 :
Well, growing concern over among the NYPD over Venezuelan gang activity across the city. Police believe some gang members are recruiting children living in migrant shelters.
SPEAKER 08 :
As Jennifer Bisram reports, the gang has blended in with asylum seekers who began arriving here in 2022.
SPEAKER 09 :
It’s kind of funny how you don’t know when you’re not demanding, you know, people’s documents and all this other stuff. It’s kind of crazy. I don’t know who’s a gang member and who’s like the innocent. Well, I mean, nobody’s innocent if you’re breaking into the country and entering illegally. But just saying, you know what? Is that that’s shocking to people? They’re reporting this like this is new and shocking. It’s not new, but it’s shocking that you think it is. This is this is what people have been telling talking about this whole time. And anytime they brought it up, you called them like bigots and xenophobes and everything else. And it’s been going on this whole time. Kane, you’re dying. What?
SPEAKER 05 :
What? It’s just weird. So they insist on not just background checks, because we have background checks to buy firearms here, but they want universal background checks for actual American citizens who are law-abiding, but they don’t care about background checks of people they don’t know from other countries coming here illegally?
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, apparently not. What? That’s not happening. That’s not correct, sir. Yes. Okay. Doesn’t make any sense at all. It’s not supposed to. Not supposed to.

Is there really any better intro than this? This song by GNR, Guns N’ Roses. Is there really any? Nay, I don’t think there is. Really don’t. Welcome back to the program. This is how I would have come into Thanksgiving, by the way. Just start, you know, kicking that solo and then immediately just start ripping apart the turkey, right? Oh, here it comes. The whole band’s getting ready for it. It’s going to go crazy. Telling you what, this is the way to do it. Way to do it. You know, holidays used to be a lot more relaxed and nothing used to not all be. Everybody would stress out over politics and all that stuff. I think that like the greatest generation had no patience for that. My grandparents did not allow that. You’re going to get hit by a wooden spoon if you start acting up. If you start making a fuss, as my grandmother would say, if you start, if you’re starting to make a fuss, if you’re fixing a fuss, you’re going to get slapped with a wooden spoon. A woman did not play. I’ve seen many people hit in her kitchen with wooden spoons. And I feel like they just now, it’s like everybody’s got a preen. Like, here’s my political beliefs and I hope we can get along. You can get along if you want to get along. I also think it’s a creation of media. Media creates it as a way to further just haunt you, even when you try to get away from them. So some of the things that we’ve touched on, so Israel and Hezbollah, they’ve got a ceasefire now. Netanyahu already announced it. And apparently Biden’s going to be, I guess he’s going to be speaking on it here shortly. But it is the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah. And then they’re going to start kind of peeling back their respective forces. And that’s so that’ll be and that’s, of course, in southern Lebanon, northern Israel. And so we have this. We also have MSNBC says that it was unaware of Harris’s campaign contributions to Al Sharpton’s nonprofit, but they won’t say whether or not they’re taking action. Really? Oh, they were unaware that they he got 100. He got a half a million dollars before she did a softball interview with him. Half a million dollars. How much did she give to Oprah? She gave it to Harpo, but it was to Oprah. Yeah. So that’s… And then, let’s see. We got the transgender bathroom thing situated. I think Nancy Mace can stop talking about the transgender bathroom stuff now. Kane’s like, yeah. I mean, I get that she’s wanting attention and wants to seem like she’s being very rebellious, but they already solved the issue. They came out with the rule, and they’re like, it’s done. And she’s still like… Okay, we get it. You realize there’s some other serious stuff happening in the House that could also use your attention. If you want to act up over some, act up over some of these other pieces of legislation. That was solved by a simple rule change. That’s all they did. And one and done. Now let’s look at some of this other stuff that, you know, that’s in the House right now. There’s some important legislation there. Let’s maybe get on some of that. I don’t know. I get a little try too hard from that one. Does that mean to say, yo, you all are thinking it. Stop it. Y’all are thinking it. It’s a little try too hard. Just, you know, just I kind of get that. I get that impression. So anyway, that’s, you know, and then, of course, the couple other things. Let’s see. We’ve got we were talking about the DEI Walmart rolling that back. Very good. Oh, and then care. Guys remember care? The Council on American Islamic Relations. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They were once linked to Hamas. They have to reveal their donors. They’re being forced to reveal where they get their money from because an ex-employee blew the whistle and said, oh, they’re accepting foreign funding. And they have to – this is what happens in defamation suits. So CARE, this was after a defamation suit. It filed against a former employee to shut them up. It backfired. So see, when you file – when you’re filing a defamation suit, you’re opened up to discovery. So now they have to reveal all their sources of funding. They thought they would file a defamation suit against this former employee, and now they’ve – Now they’ve got to open up their books and now you’ve got to find out where all their… I’m sure we’re going to be surprised. I’m sure it’s nothing that we’ve ever suspected. Right, Cain? Probably going to be total things that we just… We are going to be shocked, I’m sure. Said nobody ever. All right, today in stupidity, Cain.
SPEAKER 05 :
All right, Juan, this is cut to Dan Goldman is a Democrat. So typically I don’t really have to say much more than that for you to get a gauge as to where he is intellectually. Cut to is Dan Goldman offering the only possible explanation for this particular action. Listen to this.
SPEAKER 12 :
I think it is a shame for justice in this country. It establishes that Donald Trump is above the law. The Supreme Court put him above the law in that opinion that Paula just mentioned. But now he appears to escape full accountability for what were crimes charged by them, not getting their drummed up charges, any validity.
SPEAKER 05 :
is now Trump being above the law, right? So this is what the left will tell you. Maybe even at Thanksgiving dinner, don’t fall for it.
SPEAKER 09 :
Don’t fall for it.
SPEAKER 05 :
Don’t fall for it.
SPEAKER 09 :
Folks, I hope you have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving. We are grateful for all of you and that we get to join you every single day and hang out. God bless. I will be back on air next Monday.
