SPEAKER 05 :
Military bases have seen these drones fly over them. That’s a federal offense. If there ever were justification to shoot a drone down, that would be it. Why hasn’t it happened?
SPEAKER 01 :
Well, because, look, first of all, Bill, the military commanders at installations have the authorities they need to defend themselves, their people, their interests, and certainly to protect our secrets and our national security. Sometimes the answer is to find a way to down a drone, and sometimes the answer is not. And a lot of it depends on the capability that the base commander has available to him or to her, but they have the authorities that they need. The sense that you have to shoot everything down just when you see it, even if you do believe that there’s a malicious intent, doesn’t comport with actual reality. So, I mean, it really depends on the situation at hand. But rest assured, commanders have the authorities that they need to take the action that they must to protect their facilities.
SPEAKER 22 :
Thank you. Good to see you. Good to see you. Can you comment on the drones that are flying around New Jersey ports?
SPEAKER 10 :
It seems like the American people have a big discipline.
SPEAKER 22 :
The government knows what is happening. Look, our military knows where they took off from. If it’s a garage, they can go right into that garage. They know where it came from and where it went. And for some reason, they don’t want to comment.
SPEAKER 04 :
On the way here, I was on the phone with my OEM team, and we now have guidance coming from the state. And that guidance does say two different things. First of all, if there is a downed drone in our vicinity, we are immediately to call the bomb squad of our county. And second, our fire department has been instructed to make sure they wear hazmat suits.
SPEAKER 19 :
So if something falls out of the sky that people have seen, and some of these things are as big as an SUV, if that happens, you’re to treat this more than a plane crash. It’s treated like an attack on the homeland.
SPEAKER 04 :
That is correct, because they’re not quite sure if there’s a payload or not.
SPEAKER 16 :
So they’re saying that what it’s like a nuke. It could be like nuclear material that’s been lost. And so they’re they’re out there trying to find it. Is that that seems to be the general gist of it. So then my question is this. God help us. How do you lose nuclear material? I mean, it’s at the end of the year. We’ve all been through hell. Can we just, you know, have someone in the government not be such a dumbass that it makes me want to deconstruct the whole damn entirety of D.C. brick by brick? Are you sure? Jeez. I just, I was reading it because I didn’t quite understand how you would be able to find nuclear material. You know, like it’s, you know, doesn’t light up like light bright, I guess. Maybe it does. I don’t know. Well, yeah. And I was looking at some of this, reading some of the explanations for it. And it was kind of interesting. But again, none of it answered my question of, so how, because it’s like a, the word is that it was like an entire thing. train car of something right this is like a x-files movie welcome to the show dana lash with you top of the first hour uh make sure you sign up at substack lots of good stuff that happens there i i but to come back to the drone thing because you guys know i’ve been fascinated by this from the get-go i um i really do wonder because kane what does like um railways and transporting that stuff what what department does that fall under oh
SPEAKER 09 :
transportation.
SPEAKER 16 :
The Department of Transportation. Thank you. Who is the head of the Department of Transportation? I’m sure he’s an illustrious person. Yes, that is. It’s a big job, I’m sure.
SPEAKER 09 :
Peter Booty Juice.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, Mr. Peter Booty Juice.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yes.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes, yes, yes. Yes, him. Okay. New mom. Is he on maternity leave still?
SPEAKER 09 :
No, I think he’s recently off maternity leave.
SPEAKER 16 :
Now, I want you to… One more question, if you don’t mind. I want you to tell me who is it that’s in charge or was. I don’t think he is anymore. But he was in charge of the nuclear waste materials. He was like a deputy nuclear guy. Had a fondness for ladies’ suitcases. Yes.
SPEAKER 09 :
Are you talking about Sam?
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes. Thank you, sir. Him. So these are the people that we’ve had running these two entities.
SPEAKER 09 :
Sam Brinton or Britton or what was his name?
SPEAKER 16 :
I don’t know what the hell his name was. He was just like a… He just was a freak. I don’t know who… I don’t know what his name was. I don’t care. He was the freak that stole ladies’ luggage and their clothes and all this stuff. So I… These are the people… That our current president has put in charge of these departments. So is it shocking now that I put it like that? Answer yourself. Answer me if you think it’s shocking that something like this would happen. See, now I put it in perspective. That makes it all better, doesn’t it? No, it doesn’t. I know. I know it doesn’t. It doesn’t make it all better at all. I get you. Completely understand. All right, so welcome to the show. So this is one of the things that we’re watching today. The other couple of… I mean, it’s just a weird… I mean, everybody’s… Look, half of you are already home drunk. You guys are baking. You got a little carried away. You know, maybe you’re making some… I had a family member that would make brandy Christmas truffles. Maybe you’re doing one of those things and you used a little too much or had a little too much for you. Maybe you’re just not at work. Maybe you’re at work and it’s like the Clark Griswold. It’s like the scene of National Lampoon’s Family Vacation where he’s like the last guy there and all the presents are the same and he’s stacking it up on the boss’s desk. And you’re in that stage. You’re in that mood. Maybe it’s that. But regardless… It’s it’s almost Christmas. And so we’re all sort of, you know, and this is also to win some of the big stuff. I have to say if something was going to drop, this would be now would be the time to do it. So we’ve got a number of things. We have more information also about the the shooting that took place yesterday in Wisconsin and. As more, it was a 15 year old girl. I don’t like saying their names because the copycat thing is a real, that’s a real thing. The copycat killing is a real thing. She apparently this girl was apparently also inspired by Columbine. And this is one of the criticisms I have of the press and a lot of other people that some of the the leftist talking heads, particularly out there, because when they start talking about this stuff, they they it’s wall to wall coverage of these. of the names of these killers and you know everybody ends up knowing the names and nobody ends up remembering the victims and it’s just it’s wall-to-wall coverage and that that kind of i will never understand it but that kind of notoriety is very attractive for these types of killers for these people i i will say i think it is a little odd that it was a 15 year old girl that’s that’s a little different But everything else isn’t odd, especially when you look at how she, you know, apparently offed herself when cops showed up. That’s typically the standard is is it’s usually not, you know, the cop doesn’t the cops don’t really necessarily. I mean, what happened in Nashville was kind of rare. It’s usually the killer’s. will kill themselves. But the fact that you had a chick who wanted to be trans in Nashville or wanted to be a dude and said she was trans or however you put that in Nashville. And then now you have this female here. It is a little, it’s odd. It’s a little odd that it’s a chick, as I said. But, you know, with that, the just, I mean, the stories that are coming out, the more information that’s coming out about this. So you have a 15 year old And had a handgun. That was confirmed. It’s illegal for a 15-year-old to… I know this is not news to you, but it’s illegal for a 15-year-old to get a handgun and run around with a handgun. That’s not something that… Just got to say, it’s not something that you it’s not legal. It’s not legal in any state. It’s not legal anywhere. The president had issued a statement on it where he called for me to pull this up because I sent out a newsletter about this last night after it happened. He issued a statement. saying that he wants to ban assault weapons. He wants to establish a universal background check. I’m looking at his letter. He wants to also have a limitation on magazine capacity, what he calls high capacity, whatever that means. Now, it’s a smart move from a guy who literally just pardoned his son for a whole bunch of crimes, including falsifying information on his 4473 for a gun that was purchased, again, illegally by his son. And then his daughter-in-law slash son’s girlfriend disposed of it, tossed it in a trash can, legit across the street from a school. Real smart move from a guy who did that. But I’m curious as to why he’s calling for all these things, none of which would have had any impact at all whatsoever. He calls for… He reinstated his call for an assault weapons ban, a stupid made-up word, when it was a handgun that was used. It wasn’t a rifle. He established for… He demanded universal background checks, which… You can’t have a universal background check unless you have the establishment of a national registry. We’ve talked about that before. And he assumes that this 15 year old, I guess, walked into a gun store and that an FFL actually sold her a gun. That’s the only way that that makes sense. I mean, he calls for stuff that makes zero sense. And I I was asking some people yesterday, well, what would you actually propose without exception? Not even one in the past. Maybe there would be like one or two, but there was not even one. Yesterday, one progressive and some of them were talking heads that I was going back and forth with. Not a single one of them had any proposals. Their only response was that Republicans wanted more death. That was it. They just wanted a name call about guns. They didn’t actually want to solve anything. They had no except for ban everything. That was their only solution. As though crime began when the gun was introduced. That’s how they act. I mean, that means in the entirety of human history, we’ve never had any murder. We never had any mass casualty, anything. I mean, that’s not true, but that’s apparently what these people tell themselves and believe in order to make these stupid arguments. But not a single person had an actual serious proposal. Some of them would just Google Everytown stuff. And act like they weren’t copying and pasting, you know, verbatim. The left, and this has been my history and my experience with all of this, the left has never, ever had any kind of actual solution. None. And they do not want to hear you when you talk about yours. Like the big debate over hardening schools. Why is this a debate? I made mention of this in the newsletter last night. Why the hell is this a debate? They have long argued against hardening schools because they claim that having extra security is like a prison. I mean, do stadiums feel like prisons? Do jewelry stores feel like prisons? I mean, all of these places have way more security for their activities and their products that they sell than we have for our kids in schools. And are not our kids infinitely more valuable? Apparently, the left doesn’t think that real good security doesn’t give itself away either. You know, you may incorporate planes, clothes, plainclothes, officers, double locking doors, etc. And teachers who want to train and carry with permission of parents. But those things are all the last line of defense. All of that stuff is the last line of defense. A door lock, if it comes down to the door lock, then all of the other layers of defense have failed.

SPEAKER 09 :
And now all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s quick five.
SPEAKER 16 :
TikTok is asking the Supreme Court to block a law that could ban the app. I think it’s I do think it’s weird that we can’t convince people because people are sheep. We can’t convince people to stop using TikTok. So we’re just going to have the government ban it because we can’t. We apparently telling them that you’re literally being a prostitute for the CCP. and having your information harvested by them, that’s not enough to appeal to people’s common sense, good nature, or brain power. So we’re having to have the Supreme Court. We’re begging them to come and block it because people are stupid and asteroids should come and obliterate this rock. Merry Christmas. That’s just dumb to me that we do this. Ban everything. We’re going to talk about this coming up. Friendship after 50. Apparently they I don’t care about this headline. I don’t really care. Moving on. Nobody cares. I don’t care. I don’t care. Go make friends or don’t. Don’t bitch about it to me. I don’t care.
SPEAKER 09 :
Monday for some reason.
SPEAKER 16 :
I’m just done. Start putting a startup that puts ammo. Oh, now this one. Ammo vending machines and grocery stores?
SPEAKER 09 :
Let’s investigate this.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes, please. I need to get it. Hang on. Wait. Everybody hold up. Pause the show. I need to make a note of who this is so I can play into it. Okay. Just anyway, back to the headline. Ammo vending machines and grocery stores. There’s a startup that plans to grow this and expand it. It’s based in Dallas. Yay! American Rounds rolled its first automated retail ammo. It’s in a grocery store, but it’s in Pell City, Alabama. Why are you going to Bama? Why can’t you come do that here? All kinds of ammo. That actually is amazing. And then, of course, you have people who are like, you have a social responsibility to make it possible, blah, blah, blah. Or no, you don’t. Other people do.
SPEAKER 09 :
When I was younger, I had a friend that had a soda machine in his garage, and I thought that was the coolest thing ever. I would love an ammo machine in my garage.
SPEAKER 16 :
Why? I want one in my garage that someone can just come and they serve it. Service it. I love this. But this idea that companies have a social… No, they don’t. Shut up. That’s you. That’s when people are too lazy. I’m too lazy and stupid to have my own responsibility about society. So I’m going to ask the companies that make products I purchase to do it for me. Shut up. Let’s see here. Moving on. Because that’s a good one. Species in Chernobyl of fungus is mutating to feed on nuclear radiation. That’s actually kind of cool. Maybe we can send that out on the drone since we lost nuclear. I mean, great job, Biden. Great job. You literally have one job. But it’s mutating to feed on nuclear radiation. I feel like this is some kid’s crazy science experiment in a way, right? And they’re trying to say that X has a declining user base. And that’s from Mashable, which is the same.

SPEAKER 16 :
Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you. We’re at the bottom of this first hour. Of course, you know, we were talking just a little bit about the shooting that took place in Wisconsin yesterday and how you have the, uh, have the, um, more information coming out about this. And I was talking about it right before we, you know, went into headlines and went to break about the arguing and the debating over hardening schools. Right. And I don’t know why the left is hell bent against it. I don’t, I don’t get it. I don’t understand why they’re so against it. I, I’ve made mention of this so many times before and, In that to double locking doors, to have teachers who want to carry plainclothes officers. The left thinks that they keep saying that it’s like a prison. And I feel like they’ve never been into a prison if they think that good security is like a prison. They go to stadiums to watch sports. They go to concert venues. They’ll go to jewelry stores. I mean, hell, probably even Starbucks has more. Who knows security? Who knows? But it just seems like every other place, they don’t have a problem with it. It doesn’t feel like a prison. And that’s what you’re talking about, more of that type of security. Good security isn’t always noticeable. But the problem is this. That’s just the last line of defense. If the safety of your child is depending upon the last thing, the last gatekeeper, whether or not that door is locked, there are a lot of other layers that have failed. That’s the reality of it. And the first line of defense are the parents. I’m going to tell you something. I am not going to be blamed or have my rights up for forfeit because some parents out there were garbage. Not going to happen. They raise monsters the likes of against which we have to arm ourselves to protect ourselves and our families. So no, that’s not a good justification to deprive someone of a God-given right. Oh, you got some deadbeat parents that raised a monster. No. It turned out the teenage girl was 15 years old. And had this handgun, which 15-year-olds can’t go out and buy handguns. And I know the investigation, they’re going to look more into it. I’ve seen reports that said, well, the dad gave it to her, all this stuff. I want to see more things confirmed by law enforcement before we go down that route. But the bottom line is that if you have a 15-year-old under your roof who’s obsessed with Columbine and is obsessed with violence and death and is on a downward doom spiral and you don’t notice it, you should be chemically castrated so that you don’t procreate and plague the earth with your spawn because you’re too stupid to raise children. That’s God’s honest truth. Every single one of these killers, especially if they were teenagers, there are warning signs that you don’t need a destruction of due process in the form of silly red flag. You don’t need that in order to act. Just because some people are unfamiliar with the vast number of legal options that exist to them to have someone adjudicated, unfit or declared a prohibited possessor in a court of law doesn’t mean that those options don’t exist. That’s what the left wants you to think. The left are morons. They have no idea about gun law because they’re ignorant of it. They think it doesn’t exist. They have no familiarity with object permanence. They’re like babies. They think that when you play peekaboo, you disappear. They’re shocked. But this 15-year-old, apparently, there was this manifest going around. It’s a manifesto. And apparently she was a big feminist and saying like the manifesto that was shared said, quote, women are the only hope for this wretched world. But even women have been brainwashed by my gosh, I can’t even read it out loud because it makes me feel like I’ve drunk the worst alcohol ever. And it already gives me a hangover headache. I can’t even get through it. It’s so bad. She just she talks. She says the phrase Radfim Hitler. That helps. She has horrible grammar. If she just, you know, had spent more time maybe on her grammar instead of her murder fetish. Here’s my my question because she’s like big time into big time feminist and all this stuff. And she uses racial slurs in it as well. I’m not going to say what they are, but she uses racial slurs. You know, she’s a racist leftist. I mean, you know, this is it’s a day that ends in Y. Why? I was reading this. And I was because some of the pictures are floating out there. I was reading this manifesto thinking of the photos. And I thought. You stupid broad. Why can’t you just read Sylvia Plath like every other dumb, brain-dead feminist out there? Why can’t you just read Margaret Atwood? You don’t have to go shoot up a school. You know what? Here’s what you do. Go to Hot Topic and have daddy buy you some overpriced Junko jeans, right? Get you a chain that you attach your wallet that has nothing in it to, okay? Put on eyeliner badly. Use manic panic in your hair and pick up a copy of Sylvia Plath, The Gateway for Stupid Feminists, and pretend that it’s mind-breaking or groundbreaking or that depression is angsty and edgy. Get into that. Get into Margaret Atwood and wear a red cape and act like you’re suppressed in a country that actually gives the matriarchy more rights than they give men. Go ahead and do all of that and pat yourself on the back for being just the prototypical moron. Instead, she went and shot up a school. So, I don’t, a 15-year-old that’s able to do that, this is one of the things that parents, like bad parents, I guess they just allowed for her to get like this. How is that my fault? How is that your fault? You know, we had some of these lawmakers out here run in their mouths. Audio, somebody 12. Gwen Moore, she’s saying all this stuff needs to be studied. Listen.
SPEAKER 15 :
And my thought is that we don’t have a lot of information. And that’s why it’s really important for us to support efforts that people have made consistently to have the CDC and other private foundations really try to study what the cause of this violence is. We already know. that there are too many guns. You know, a lot of people say it’s the mental health or it’s video games. We don’t know. Yeah, we do. We do.
SPEAKER 16 :
We absolutely do. You walking mental abortion. We know. We know exactly what it is. Some people, we just don’t know. Last week, all you leftists were celebrating the public gunning down of a health care CEO. On CNN, on MSNBC, Washington Post reporters, they thought it was great. It fulfilled one of their narratives about CEOs and big bad insurance companies. He got gunned down in the middle of the street in front of a Hilton, no less, in Manhattan. Right there. I mean, it’s just blocks away from their Christmas tree. He got murked in broad, you know, well, early morning light, but broad daylight. They actually had no problem with a gun then. Because it was somebody they didn’t like, somebody they couldn’t use. So they were all right about it. You think that kids aren’t watching that when they’re watching their adults in their lives or on TV that their parents are watching celebrate the gunning down of this guy because they just didn’t like him fulfilling the stupid progressive narrative. And then they want to turn around literally the next week and then act like guns are bad because a 15 year old illegally acquired one. What? Pick a lane. This is so asinine. What Gwen Moore is talking about here is a law she’s unaware of. It’s called the Dickey Amendment. It was passed in the 90s because people wanted to do something to make themselves feel better. They said that we need to be able to study the causes of gun violence. Like, you know, you the brain trust that’s in D.C. decided that they needed to eat taxpayer dollars to figure out why gangbangers are gangbanging. They just don’t know why people are selling the drugs. And they wanted to act like there was a separate. like the school shootings or something like that, which are rare and are the exception, which is why they’re not the universal rule, whereas drug and gang violence actually are the rule when it comes to homicides and mass casualty incidents and driving crime, etc. They wanted to study why this was. They needed to study it. The Dickey Amendment was drafted and passed to state that, sure, you can study You can study factors like mental health. You can study all this stuff. But what you can’t do is use taxpayer dollars to either advocate for or advocate against firearms and firearm ownership. That has never been good enough for the left because the sole purpose they had of wanting to study this wasn’t because they actually care about saving lives. These people don’t care about saving lives. They made a business out Out of walking women into a meat grinder called Planned Parenthood, churning the baby out, making sausage for their executives. They made a whole thing of it. They launder money through it. They donate to Democrats through it. So let’s stop pretending that these jackasses care about life. OK, let’s stop. They don’t. But when it’s convenient for them, they do. But they didn’t like this stipulation within the Dickey Amendment. That’s been law since the 90s. You can’t use taxpayer dollars to advocate for or against firearm ownership. Well, that’s what they wanted to do. That’s all they’ve ever wanted to do. They don’t mourn for life loss. They mourn for opportunity loss. The moment… The moment the news of a tragedy hits the televisions, newspapers, social media, they’re already thinking of ways that they can maximize this to their advantage. They were doing this after Parkland. I don’t know if you guys knew this, but they had it was the Knickerbocker firm that’s in D.C. Anita Dunn works there. They were down there in Parkland right after this happened. They had their high-powered Democrat PR people. Who do you think put March for Lives together? It was their people. It was Anita Dunn. It was all those people. There are photos of it all over the place. And I talked to the parents, some of them who lost their precious children in Parkland, and they were treated pretty scornfully when they couldn’t be pressured into joining the anti-gun movement there in Parkland. And she was there. All that firm was there. They were all there. This isn’t about saving lives. It’s about how can they use this to get something that they want from their agenda. And the way that they write about this, oh, there’s no, you’re not allowed to study any kind of firearm prevention, you know, anything. As long as you don’t politicize it, but the left can’t help themselves. They got to politicize it. None of this. And what is it going to solve? You know what the biggest problem is? The policies they support. The fact that you’ve got a family, families, middle class families in the United States cannot live on one income anymore. You have to sacrifice. You have to struggle. Used to not be like that. But the government needed to spend everybody’s money. Right. We had to go fight forever wars. We had to go nation build. We had to hand out entitlements like it was Halloween candy to every Tom, Dick and Harry that rolled through the Rio, the southern border. Oh, we had to fund a whole bunch of stuff that was completely unrelated to the federal government’s original purpose. We had to make it economically impossible for families to operate in the best manner for families to operate. We had to make college super expensive while simultaneously shaming people for not going and getting four-year degrees. And then shaming them if they went to the wrong kind of college. We had to do all that. We had to start shaming women into thinking that they were just dumb bimbos who are nothing more than sex dolls that breathe for the frat progressive bros that ruin frat culture. The progressive bros out there who want to be able to have one night stands and not be responsible for any life created. And the women go right along with it while acting like it’s some form of empowerment. One of the greatest tricks perpetuated upon women since the snake told Eve to eat the apple. Or was it their own free will? We have men who are browbeaten by the matriarchy so that now nobody wants to get married. Nobody wants to create more hell spawn to cover this godforsaken rock. And then Democrats are like, well, gosh, how did we get here? I guess we should ban guns. Hell, how about we ban you? That’s the problem. It’s just going to we’re going to keep having these problems and having these tragedies because you have half the country that’s not serious. I would actually say half of that half of the country, if I’m being honest. I think there are some Democrats who don’t know where the hell else to go. They don’t they can’t really identify as Republican because Republican means a whole bunch of stuff now. They know that they’re not conservative, even though that’s really about conserving individual liberty. But, you know, whatever. But they know that they’re not really Democrat. They don’t know where else to go, so they’re kind of stuck in the middle. Whose house did they go to for Christmas? Wherever it doesn’t play. Maybe it’s cold outside, maybe. Our partners over at Burn a Gun, the non-firearm firearm. And it’s always good to diversify your self-defense arsenal because, you know, I would love to. I carry all the time and I have zero problem using lethal force. You come at me, UFA, UFO. That’s kind of how I look at it. But I know that there are areas that are gun-free zones or gun-free buildings, private property or whatever it is. And sometimes, you know, you don’t have the luxury of declining to go there. Maybe you got to go there as part of your job, but you also don’t want to be a statistic. This is where Burna Gun comes in. Stun guns, regular ones, are restricted to like one or two shots. Burna’s most popular model, the Burna SD, has a five-round capacity and shoots chemical-irrident projectiles that can disable threats from up to 50 feet away. They have a whole carry bundle that you can get. This is a great holiday gift, too, by the way. You can get defense spray. They have a launcher carry bundle. They got all kinds of stuff. But it provides to you instant readiness, no recoil, easy target acquisition. It’s legal in all 50 states. No background checks, no permits. They can ship it right to your front porch and it doesn’t care about gun-free zone signs. It’s an effective deterrent. And it’s another option that you can have for self-defense, particularly when the state’s trying to deny you or maybe a property owner wants to deny you.

SPEAKER 20 :
What she’s been saying to people over the last couple of weeks, donors, other supporters that she’s been talking with, is you haven’t seen the last of me. I’m not going quietly into the night. Advisors, people close to her, are debating about what that means. They do not want her final official act ever to be essentially certifying Donald Trump’s win over her, especially four years after January 6th. And so they look at this governor’s race in California in 2026, and it seems to them like a layup, essentially.
SPEAKER 16 :
Are we ever going to get rid of her? They don’t really like her. They don’t like her out in California. They don’t really like her federal. They don’t like her. You can’t stop trying to make fetch happen. Stop it, Gretchen. I just. Why do we keep? Are we just never going to get rid of her? She’s going to run in California. Kamala Harris considering a potential run for California governor. You know, I got to tell you, I feel like that would be blocked. Because nobody likes everybody’s got grievances. They’re mad because she wasted so much money. I have to tell you, too, part of that is Democrats wasting a lot of money. They made her the fall guy for it. They wouldn’t get Biden out and they shoved her in there. I’m not defending her, but I’m just saying, you know, keep in perspective. We got a second hour coming up.

SPEAKER 10 :

SPEAKER 07 :
Of course. I mean, just swamp’s going to swamp, right? 1,400 pages, still haven’t seen the text. Multiple subject matters. Important health care legislation. in the context of extenders piled on the back of a three-month CR with about $110 billion unpaid for, $25 billion in health care policy, half of which is fake pay for, being sold that it’s paid for because they’re gimmicks and shuffling around the decks. Things like E15, which we didn’t even have a full debate on. This is not the way to do business, right? And so, you know… We’d do something different. Since we’ve been given the majority again, we’re adding $330 billion in literally totally unpaid for additional deficit spending just since November 5th.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, they want to spend more. I don’t know why the speaker is allowing for like a budget. Just pass the CR and get on with it. Oh, but hey, remember the guy who’s not in Congress anymore wanted a big old fight at the most inopportune time over speaker when no one else was prepared to step up. So we got an equal rhino with even less seniority as speaker. Great job. Welcome back to the show. Dana Lash with you. We’re at the top of the second hour. And I’m saying that’s not the best way to start off. Johnson needs just and he needs to stop getting cover from party leaders. That would be great, guys. Thanks. Including POTUS elect. Stop it. Don’t give this guy cover. The reason that he’s compromising and not just kicking over a CR, a continuing resolution for this budget stuff, is because he keeps getting justification not to do so whenever he’s given cover by people who outrank him in the GOP. That’s an issue. We can’t be doing that. I’m not… Man, I’m done with it. I don’t want more of the same. People are tired of more than the same. Honestly, a lot of Republican stuff isn’t that much different from Democrats. Oh, it makes people mad when I say that. The people who have a grift to cover get mad when I say that. But it’s God’s honest truth. I mean, are we going to walk away from deportations? Are we going to slow at building the wall? We never got Obamacare overturned, despite every single damn Republican that sits in a seat in D.C. campaigning on it. So what do we get for our money? We get to pretend that we’re actually more aligned with the Constitution than Democrats. OK, so again, welcome. You can obviously you’re what you know, you’re listening to the program either across the country or you’re watching a 347. The chats at Rumble, if you’re on it, if you’re unaware, of course, over at Substack as well. Yeah, I’m aggravated over this because I’m tired of paying taxes to cover the backside of a government that can’t stop spending. This story, this stuff enrages me. It absolutely enrages me. So I don’t know why it is we keep doing it. This is not what we voted for. So I really think And I’ve I think I had like a this was part of one of the newsletters that went out for headlines. I just don’t know why Johnson has got got to get with it a little bit here. They’ve got to cut spending. Why would you have right before you’re about to see your party take over the White House and the Senate and the House and you’re going to green light, the passage of an omnibus. And then we’re all going to act like, oh yeah, we’re really serious about spending. It’s a mess. It’s going to be a mess. Just do the CR and then wait. Until we have the numbers in the House and in the Senate, and then maybe we can cut a little bit. But I don’t think Republicans want the austerity that comes with cutting. They’re too dependent upon that government cash. They got all their special projects. They don’t want to lose any of that. They don’t want to lose it. A few other things I want to touch on as well, and we’ll keep an eye on that. All of that stuff. I didn’t get to this, but well, there’s a couple of things. We’re going to talk about Canada and apparently what’s going on with the governor of Canada. Right, Kane? You know the governor of Canada. Yeah. Yeah. He seems like he’s not bad. The governor of Canada. He’s horrible. He’s a little Castro. Yeah. America’s hat. We’re going to talk about the drama that’s happening with them and calls for Trudeau to step down, which is pretty serious. Then we’re going to and we’ll continue following this CR fight. Yeah. Fifteen hundred page. So wait, they’re supposed to vote on this tomorrow. And as of last night at eight o’clock, they did not have the bill yet. Wow. Just let it expire. Let the government shut down. They’re terrified of having a government shutdown. I love government shutdowns. You think they’re going to shut it down, Cain?
SPEAKER 09 :
I hope they do. We’re getting a whole new Congress here in a month. I don’t know what they’re doing.
SPEAKER 16 :
Being stupid. Yeah, that’s exactly what they’re doing. They are being absolutely idiotic. Completely idiotic. But that’s that’s them. The Elon Musk apparently was meeting with Nigel Farage and other leaders in the UK. He met them at Mar-a-Lago and there’s rumors that he gave them or there’s rumors of a 100 million dollar donation going around. Farage is a is a member of parliament and he’s a leader of Reform UK. And he was also at the head of the Brexit. He’s a conservative over there. So he’s been an MP, leader of Reform UK. And there’s discussion as to what Musk can do to partner maybe with the more conservative members of British government to push back and save British culture or the British, you know, Britain period, similar to what Musk contributed here in the U.S., That might be fun. That might be fun to watch. It also gives him a lot of power. But it might be fun to watch. Although our Brits, I don’t know, are Brits ready to kind of push back against the… woke scolds and the crushing wave of completely unmitigated, you know, meant much of it illegal immigration into their country. I mean, even Germany is saying enough. Austria is even saying enough. A lot of these European nations are saying enough. We don’t have the resources. Their crime is because they can’t vet anybody who’s coming in. It’s all military age men. Enough is enough. Will it? I don’t know. Because I do think that the makeup of of and and sentiment and attitudes in the uk are very different from what they are in america like we live and breathe this type of stuff like other people talk about revolution we we actually we succeeded and we weren’t like france and in which we failed and then we had a dictator followed by a restoration of the monarchy we didn’t do any of that uh it’s stuck for now but i it’s they’re very different sentiment and sentiments and attitude I would be interested to see if they were able to do the same over there. It’s something definitely to watch. I wanted to also touch on, because we were talking about drones. We’ve been discussing drones. There was a couple of stories that I didn’t get to, including, and I’m going to push this one. We’re talking about the Wisconsin shooting and the way that Democrats are trying to seize upon it also. And So they’re not going to do anything right now, but they are saber rattling. And I think that they are using a lot of the discussion surrounding the abundant life school shooting as a way to kind of regroup their side. This is one of the things I’ve been watching. I really do think that they’re using it as a regrouping mechanism. They’re trying to get everybody back on the same page because everyone was so all over the place and fighting with each other over DEI and immigration. And I think they’re just happy to have. I know it sounds sick, but I think they’re happy to have something around which they can rally and regroup. So they’re back to gun control. That’s their safe space. They always go back to gun control. They don’t have any solutions, but, you know, they’ve they’re. That’s it. Speaking of this yesterday, I don’t know if I want to play this whole cut, but the police chief at the time, they wouldn’t release the age or gender of the killer. Why was that? Why were they hesitant to mention the gender of the killer? Because it’s a girl and she’s not trans. Did they think she was? I was wondering about that. Did they think that she was trans and that’s why they didn’t want to release it? I don’t know. It’s I don’t know. That’s just that’s it was weird that they didn’t. And it just fueled conspiracy theories. Why would you not release it? It doesn’t make any sense. I think the police chief, well, the Madison, Wisconsin police chief, of course, is pretty left. A couple of other things here. The headline I saw was apparently it was a second grader who called 911. Now, when that headline hit, I saw a lot of the gun control activists saying, this is how sad society is. A second grader had to call 911. My first thought was that school had nothing in place. So a second grader had to call 911. That was my first thought. A second grader, they had no warning system. You have to realize we live in a sick world. society where wayward behavior is rewarded criminality is protected the boundary between right and wrong is being blurred away and in this type of environment because we have always had firearms we’ve always had guns in this country firearm ownership private ownership unfettered by the government predates this republic We’ve always had people who built guns. We’ve always had people that have had guns. They predate this republic. But a relatively new phenomenon are these mass casualty incidents, specifically ones that target schools. And I go back to what I was just saying about our society. It’s a trash garbage society. So in a trash garbage society, you have to realize that trash garbage societies create trash garbage people who are going to do trash garbage things like target schools. And that’s exactly what we saw in this situation. I do think it’s interesting how a lot of the news of it has gone away, Kane, or am I overthinking it?
SPEAKER 09 :
No, I was actually commenting to Juan about that this morning. I noticed when we were getting set up for the show that it’s like, wow, where was this?
SPEAKER 16 :
Is it because she’s 15, a girl?
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, that’s what I think.
SPEAKER 16 :
So we had in Nashville, it was trans Tifa. So this is femme Tifa. That’s why you have to. Why schools must be protected. Because everybody wants to target schools. We have a lot more to get into, including the… We’ve got stuff with Doge. We’ve got some soundbites as well. Especially about this ABC stuff. And I have two tales of really ridiculous media, ABC and CNN. And the CNN story, I cannot get over. This chick, I didn’t know she was like some Z-list actress. She thought that she was legit saving a prisoner in Syria, and they made a big deal about it. And as it turns out, she was like apparently springing one of Assad’s torturers or something like that. Like, I don’t like the rebels. I don’t like Assad either. I don’t have to like anybody. Neither do you. But I think it was funny that she thought that she was freeing some sort of like innocent dove.

SPEAKER 09 :
And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It’s time for Dana’s Quick Five.
SPEAKER 16 :
So Argentina is making some good moves on firearms. This is interesting. So one of the things that they’re doing is lowering the minimum age for authorization to carry firearms to 18. And they adopted that measure. And I think what it goes into effect pretty soon, because in the United States, it’s, you know, 21 to carry it unless it’s, you know, 18. the uh you know shotgun hunting rifle something like that uh but uh interesting and he’s been javier malay has been just absolutely deregulating the argentinian government at a rate of speed that has never before been seen and they’re getting in a lot of government revenue after doing that i hope that republicans pay attention to that not just give it lip service uh also the Some concerned shoppers are stockpiling goods because everything is stupid. Stop listening to the media on this stuff. So apparently people are stockpiling what canned foods and some things like that, dog food and paper towels. And there I get that you’re I mean, having a prepper’s pantry, that’s not that’s not a bad thing. I wouldn’t even describe that as stockpiling. I would just say that that’s like preparation. But I do think that certain… I have noticed like there’s like a run on certain canned goods and it’s because people are… Stop it. Just stop it. Don’t listen to the media fear-mongering on this stuff. Let’s see. Some people are wanting to swap turkey for takeout. A poll suggests that Americans are rejecting tradition and… It’s not an anti-Christian thing. I think it’s just people are busy and they’re tired. 2,000 adults were surveyed. 31% of them apparently want to see more unusual alternatives. I don’t know. I like the turkey. I usually do red meat on Christmas. I like turkey on Thanksgiving. I like that kind of stuff. I don’t care. I eat cardboard for all I care. I really don’t care. Cain says to not. I don’t care. He cares. I don’t. Just saying, you know, do whatever you want to do. And, you know, it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter. I know people who have tamales on Christmas Eve. They do tamales every Christmas Eve. That’s a big thing. Do whatever you want to do. It’s all American. All right. We got a lot more on the way, including let’s we got to talk about some grifters and we got to talk about CR. Stick with us.

SPEAKER 17 :
Look, as we hold our loved ones close this holiday season, We as a nation must renew our commitment to end the horror of gun violence, both mass shootings and everyday gun violence that touches so many communities in our nation. We must end it, and we must be committed to have the courage to know that solutions are in hand. But we need elected leaders to have the courage to step up.
SPEAKER 16 :
And do what? Do what? Kamala Harris, a day late and a dollar short, as always, decides to go out and speak about. What, try to try to push gun control after Wisconsin? I it’s not shocking, but again, it’s just a bunch of ridiculousness. Like why? Why are we for for what law do they propose that would have prevented any of this? they’re all trying to rally and get back to the same square, and they’re using this as the means to do so. Again, these were also the same people that did cheer the CEO’s execution last week by a firearm. But hey, that was okay then. That was all right then. Welcome back. Dana Lash here with you, bottom of this second hour. I saw that, and that’s brand new from her. Brand new from her. She thinks that She says that she’s using this to call for more of the same that has not ever worked. I just get I get tired of it. People sit here and they’ve been proposing like a number of different things. Well, you know, we need to have safe storage. Who’s going to enforce safe storage? Are you going to send agents to the homes of every single innocent firearm owning American in the United States? The same left that was just decrying the idea of deportation because they couldn’t understand possibly how every single person who entered illegally could be found and sent back to their country of origin. So the safe storage stuff. So you want an agent of state. First off, what they’re doing is they’re making the argument for the left for a national registry, because in order to do checks, you’re already pushing to incorporate firearm owners as federal firearms licensees. And that’s what Joe Biden has proposed. He wants to make just basic gun ownership to where you have to have an FFL. Now, it doesn’t matter if you’re in retail, doesn’t matter if you’re selling anything like that. If you have an FFL just for regular firearm owners. So people who are pushing safe storage for not a single damn one of the states, including California and New York, who already have quote unquote storage laws, it’s not had any kind of impact, by the way, on their homicide rate. Absolutely none. That’s number one. Number two, you’re inviting agents of state into your home to check and see whether or not they think that you’ve stored your firearms adequately. So they’re going to know exactly what you have and they’re going to treat you like an FFL. And I’m assuming it would be the ATF, right, Kane? The same ATF that had its own security staff pilfer tons of guns from its inventory, right? I don’t know if you guys knew this. This is a pretty big story. The ATF had their own employees steal all their guns that they had in their inventory. Some of it was ATF on firearms. Some of it was confiscated, etc. And they had their security personnel, their employees, stealing from them, taking from them. And then they lost a bunch. They don’t even know how. So that entity, the entity that ran guns in Mexico, according to the Fast and Furious op, that entity would be the one in charge of coming into your home and checking how you store your firearms. That’s what that means. That’s how you have to do safe storage. So the people out there talking about it, By the way, if they go in to your home to check safe storage and they see something else maybe that they don’t like, who’s to say that they’re not going to pop you for that? Just saying. I mean, go ahead and open those doors if you think that that’s what you want to do. Unbelievable. No, people can freely move to China if they want. I want to talk about a couple other different things here, including this thing. Can we just pause for a minute? I don’t know about you. I watch. I like Taylor Sheridan. I think Landman’s a little a little blue in terms of humor. Billy Bob Thornton’s spectacular in that series, though. full disclosure they actually we met uh the scout uh the locations for landman because they were they they thought about using our house as a set at one point they didn’t but how that would have actually been kind of cool uh they didn’t do it but they they thought about it and i thought that might be kind of neat like only if it’s like billy bob thornton’s house because that would be It’s fascinating to stand in the corner and watch a scene actually work. I have no desire to be in it at all. I just like to see how the sausage is made. So anyway, we started watching Landman and we’ve been watching Mayor King’s Town. I like all his stuff. Yellowstone, the latest episode, the latest last season of Yellowstone wrapped up and I thought it was actually done really well. Anyone who watches it, they pick up real quick. Sheridan doesn’t come out and say he’s a hardcore righty, but you can pretty much tell that from the dialogue that he has. The dialogue where he talks about oil and gas and he talks about gun ownership and land and all this other stuff and bashes big government one side and off down the other in every single episode. And it’s very refreshing and it’s not done in a manner that is forced or… cringy. I always hate when people make a film or make a song with the desire to be political first. And then the art is the secondary consideration. I hate that stuff. And nobody’s more guilty of it than people on the right. God love you, but you are. People on the left, they’re a little, they’ve had practice with it. You know, they’re used to slipping stuff in their storylines. We don’t do that because we’re, you know, we’re not liars. So, you know, anyway, so I was I was I saw this on social media last night and some of these accounts I don’t follow and I don’t have anything to do with because I just don’t subscribe to any of it. But I saw some dude who I guess is a conservative influencer was out there and I watched the last season of Yellowstone. I don’t know who says stuff like this. He posted one of the final scenes of Yellowstone was the native Indian tribe children taking over the ranch and knocking over the gravestones of Dutton ancestors while laughing. That’s how Taylor Sheridan sent off the Dutton family. Are you paying attention yet? And Kevin Sorbo, Christian Kevin Sorbo, even responded to it, saying that’s incredibly disappointing. Nobody watched the episode. I watched the damn episode. And what happened was you had teenagers who were in after. And I don’t care about spoiler alerts. I’m not here to do that and gatekeep for you. But in that episode, there were like three or four Native American teenagers that were knocking over the Dutton’s headstones. And the elders came in there. Moe the Elder came in there and blasted them and said, how dare you? And he just I mean, he just about beat him to death. He was screaming at them. He was like, how dare you do this? He was like, they fought. and died to defend this land. And the whole episode was how they both realized the Native Americans and the Dunn family, they all realized that they had been on the same side the entire time. They didn’t want to have corporations come in and overdevelop the land and kill all the wildlife and be horrible stewards of all this stuff. And I would play this for you, but we can’t play it because we’ll get kicked off of YouTube. It would be a strike against us. So I can’t share with you the clip of it because YouTube will literally take our account off air, even though it’s newsworthy. But that’s the way it is in fair use. But OK. But he like blasted them for doing this. And then he very carefully and arduously pulled back every single headstone. And in the end, the head of the tribe, you know, was standing there and he had a tear down his face because he was thinking he finally realized these two men had begun as their relationship started in the series as mortal enemies. And then they realized we are actually on the same side. And they ended up selling the ranch to the Native American tribe for like, you know, a dollar, whatever, from how they purchased it back in like 1823. And I had said in the very beginning of the season, I’m like, I wonder if they’re going to fulfill what they said in the first installment of this story. In 1823, they had said, well, in seven generations, you can have it back. That’s what Tim McGraw’s character had told. one of the elders of the tribe. And seven generations later, here it is. And it was a pretty amazing thing. They ended up both wanting to protect that land and not have it overdeveloped. None of the kids wanted it. John Dutton’s kids in the series did not want the ranch. So they honored their promise to their father by not having the land overdeveloped. And they also got out from underneath the ranch. So I don’t know why someone’s lying about something as stupid as this. Like, I don’t understand people who go out and charlatan like this. And that’s exactly what it is. And double down on it. Because when this was brought up, this dude had said, oh, well, that was the trajectory. No, it wasn’t. Well, they ended up losing the ranch because, as I just said, neither kid wanted it. So they ended up… It actually was the complete opposite of what was being claimed in that post on X. The absolute opposite. So… This, I mean, it’s, I don’t know why people make up this stuff. I thought it was a great scene. I thought it was a scene where those kids were told they were educated. And then in the very end, they were very, they’re agreed upon. They dismantled the house and they promised to never develop the land. They took care of the cemetery. They promised all that stuff and they were fulfilling it. That’s how Taylor Sheridan sent off the Dutton family. So I don’t understand why someone’s trying to manufacture a complaint and lie about a final scene that other people have seen. I really, really hope that’s the case. And I don’t understand, too. There was a there’s a community note on it that I think that they were trying to get to go away. But I just you got to be careful with some of this stuff. There are people on the right who. Who I didn’t see before 2016 that didn’t really have like any sort of record of measures where you could tell where they were politically or in terms of genuineness. But there are people on the right who will purposely mislead you and try to bait you into a manufactured division. Right. And it’s easy to do, has been easy to do lately because everybody’s, you know, you kind of had to pick a side in this huge cultural battle and this political battle. But now that we’re through that, I think that be very discerning. Because there are snakes among you. Absolutely. And there are grifters among you. And you just need to be careful with stuff. And I hope that the people, especially the Christians and the mentions of that thread, I hope that they take back some of their words and honor their faith and be a little bit more transparent and a little bit more honest with stuff. Because it’s disappointing to see. And it makes people disillusioned about every political side, not just the left.
SPEAKER 09 :
It’s his life mission to make bad decisions. It’s time for Florida Man.
SPEAKER 16 :
This is the most of the stories I’m starting off like that. So a guy, a Florida guy nicknamed Shroom decided to settle a $150 debt by going to an apartment in to get to, I guess, to collect $150. And they call the guy the victim, I guess, the victim who supposedly owed him money. He was just there playing video games. The three dudes, including Shroom, was among them, busted down his door. They roughed him up. The victim got pistol whipped. And then the victim recognized one of the masked men. And that was his old buddy Shroom, who’s Lazaro Gonzalez Gonzalez. I don’t know why he has two of the same name, but he does. Well, I don’t get that. He kind of looks like a shroom, I guess. And yes, the victim did owe $150. But Instead of working out a payment plan, he declared that the three men destroyed $150 of his own property. So they decided that that was even. But Shroom did go to jail for assault. That’s just one of the… I’m trying to get over his name. That’s the biggest offense in this piece. Florida man lost a drone to an alligator after flying it too close to the water. We need to get some of these gators up in Jersey. Drone operators… I never heard of that, of where a gator got it. But this and this story, by the way, that’s written by a website called Motor Biscuit. They don’t know how to write stories because they bury the lead four graphs down. But a guy in Florida obviously flew his drone way too close to a gator. He was trying to get a good shot of it. And I guess he didn’t realize that gators can actually propel themselves up out of the water with their tails. And that’s exactly what happened. The gator just like jumped up like a great white shark would jump up. He jumped up out of the water and grabbed the drone and then went into a death roll. So that guy’s not going to get his drone back. Kane, I don’t think that guy’s I think that’s a loss. Yeah, that’s that’s not that ain’t never coming back. It’s never, ever coming back. Let’s see this guy. stole a Rolls Royce and crashed it into a checkers. Now I had to stop here because I haven’t heard of that place in a long time. That’s the hamburger place, right? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The rallies and the checkers. Because didn’t checkers buy rallies or something like that? Okay. It was a Rolls Royce SUV and it was stolen from a valet at a Fort Lauderdale hotel and they crashed it into a checkers at 2.15 a.m. A Rolls Royce. I don’t even know. It’s an SUV. I mean, maybe he was like super hungry. By the way, the restaurant where he crashed it was barely six miles away from the hotel. Mm hmm. And the punishment in Florida for grand theft auto is actually based on the value of the property stolen. And the top tier is any vehicle over $100,000. And this is even more than that. So this guy is looking to face up to 30 years in jail for grand theft. Taking a six, barely six mile joyride, stealing a Rolls Royce SUV and crashing it into a checkers. So I don’t know the guy who, by the way, the Rolls Royce owner, he told CBS News Miami that he was sleeping and they valet went and knocked on his door or the hotel did. And they said it was stolen from the valet. So, yeah, it wasn’t found at the checkers. It was found inside the checkers because he reined it. Ran it in there. Let’s see. This guy. I’m not reading that. This because it’s gross. I’m not doing that. Can we just not with the stories about everybody exposing themselves? What is up with that? Is it just because it’s humid down there? I don’t know. A Florida man was arrested during a treehouse robbery. Yeah, I don’t know. And there’s crack cocaine involved. Florida authorities arrested a guy because police said he stabbed a man to death during a robbery in a tree house. It stemmed from a crack deal. Of course it did. Monroe County Sheriff’s deputies say the victim, 59-year-old Matthew Bonnet, was trying to help a neighbor who was being robbed by two masked men. The female victim lived in a treehouse in the trailer park. So she didn’t have a trailer in the trailer park. She had a treehouse in the trailer park. And I guess they climbed up there and the deal went sideways and they stabbed her. The guy’s being held in Monroe County Jail. Well, there you go. Third hour next, guys. Stick with us. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you at the top of this third hour. It’s already Tuesday. Tomorrow’s Wednesday. We’re almost to Christmas Eve week. It’s pretty amazing. You can listen across the country. We also have the chat at Rumble. And don’t forget to sign up over at Substack. Lots of good stuff up there. So where to even start? I’m going to pull. What’s going on with America’s hat? I know. The Canadian government is just losing it. But now I was reading something about The challenger, like some of the people who are challenging the governor or the president, the head, just call him the governor of the state of Canada, Justin Trudeau, little Castro. People, they’re trying to pressure him into resigning. I mean, he should. And he’s trying to save his spot. He’s fighting back against it. But I did think it was kind of interesting. He’s been for 11 years now the head of their liberal party. And that’s quite a long time. They could elect a new leader. Whether or not they’re going to do that, I guess that’s where we’ll see. One of his challengers is Jagmeet Singh. He’s one of the guys who’s called on Trudeau to resign, demand that he step down. Apparently, he wants an election in March because he wants to lock in his pension before the election in March. I don’t know. Politicians are going to politician. But there’s I think we have the audio of this where he was being yelled at by people. He is not a audio somebody 19. He is not. This is live television. He is not a popular person. Listen.
SPEAKER 14 :
Prime Minister, are you going to remain in office?
SPEAKER 10 :
No, what gives you the right to continue? What gives you the right to stay in office? You failed Canada. You’ve ruined our country.
SPEAKER 06 :
You’re done. Walk away.
SPEAKER 10 :
You don’t have an ounce of your father’s integrity. At least he walked in the snow. You’ve ruined this country. Everyone around you is running from you. They’re abandoning you. They’ve all left you. It’s time for you to go. It’s time for Canada to have an election. You’re not the king.
SPEAKER 16 :
Dang. I mean… that is something else that’s pretty amazing they’re not they don’t like him he um was really i thought like when he was first elected he was pretty celebrated and everybody you know the canadians seemed to like him but now they hate him they don’t like him at all anymore i think there’s probably i mean obviously a good reason for that but their their government is uh i think he’s gonna get run out i think that the tide is turning i think it’s turning i think he’s Cain, say on air what you just said.
SPEAKER 09 :
I was like, imagine what it takes to make polite Canadians into these mad, rabid people. Imagine what that takes. Yeah. It’s exactly what Trudeau’s done.
SPEAKER 16 :
I mean, I think, because aren’t they pretty much like, hey, sorry to offend, eh? Maple syrup, maple leaves, yay. I don’t know. The finance minister resigned. That was his top lieutenant. He’s out. I don’t know. I can’t imagine him staying on. I just can’t imagine him staying on in this position. I don’t. Because he’s… Well, Pierre Polivere, who I love, he’s this guy who, do you guys remember Pierre Polivere? He follows me on X. He was the guy who was eating an apple when a reporter was asking him questions. And he, in the most lackadaisical manner possible, just gutted this guy. But he says that Trudeau has to resign. Listen.
SPEAKER 03 :
Mr. Trudeau is being held in office by one man, Jagmeet Singh. A fifth of Liberal MPs have written a letter for him to resign. His Deputy Prime Minister has walked out on him. His Housing Minister has quit. That on top of numerous other female ministers who stormed out after his appalling mistreatment and abuse and dishonesty towards them. 80% of Canadians have lost confidence in this prime minister. So why is Jagmeet Singh making the entire country wait for him to get his pension? That is the question.
SPEAKER 16 :
He wants his pension. March election. So he can lock in his pension. That’s why. Well, we’ll watch and see what happens with the governor of Canada there. We’ll watch and see. San Francisco. Has a new government position. Did you hear about this? No. Yeah. It is a consultant. I’m not going to play this whole video because it’s stupid. Well, maybe I will, actually. This person is supposed to be the, checks notes, weight stigma czar. What? Mm-hmm. Now, Cain. Yeah? I want you to tell me. if the person whose image I just placed in Slack is qualified to be the Chex Notes weight stigma czar?
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, she’d… No. I almost went on a tangent there, but no. Juan’s going to be putting up a quick little video of her in action.
SPEAKER 16 :
What is weight neutrality?
SPEAKER 09 :
I think that’s in space, right? You’re weightless.
SPEAKER 16 :
We’ll play this when he gets it. It’s that ridiculous. She’s working with a team at the San Francisco Department of Public Health, it says here, as a consultant on weight stigma and weight neutrality. What is weight neutrality? What is that? Is that a thing?
SPEAKER 09 :
When someone’s neutral… Does it have a flag? I guess if you’re just neutral about the idea of weight or extra weight, I… Your guess is as good as mine, but Juan’s ready if you’re ready.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, please. Let’s hear this. I’m sorry.
SPEAKER 18 :
Hi, my name is Virgie Tovar, and I’m the author of You Have the Right to Remain Fat, as well as a few other books on fat positivity and body acceptance. When I think about what people might be surprised by or what you wouldn’t think of when you think of eating disorders, I immediately think of being a kid. I was a kid in a larger body, a teen in a larger body, and also an adult in a larger body. And the message I always got from my doctor was, shrink your body by any means necessary. And it really felt like there was a sense of a don’t ask, don’t tell. So because I truly, truly, truly believed. And this is where I think the surprise comes in. I really believed that this was about my health. I really believed that my doctor was right. Because why would I believe anything?
SPEAKER 13 :
That’s real.
SPEAKER 16 :
That’s real. Your doctor was right. And it’s not… Let’s not do fat positivity. I don’t believe in fat shaming people unless, you know, the calls for it. But people pointing out that your obesity is a comorbidity is a health issue. That’s not people trying to be mean. And I think people need to stop being victims. Stop being a victim. I mean, come on. Seriously. It’s… I… really don’t understand this idea. Was this a backlash to the heroin chic of the 90s? Is that what we’re living with still?
SPEAKER 09 :
What I don’t get is imagine any other health concern, whether it’s diabetes or whether it’s just anything health-wise. Would you encourage people to continue behavior that would exasperate or make that health problem worse? Would you do that? Would you affirm them? Knowing that it would make their problem worse. Why would you do that?
SPEAKER 16 :
This, when she says, you know, I have a right to, you know, you have a right to be fat or whatever. You don’t. And here’s why. After you don’t absolutely blink and do not. And here’s why. Absolutely. After Obamacare passed and we all had to pay higher insurance premiums to pay for people who didn’t or couldn’t want to pay, oh, I get to have a say in all of that. So you don’t get any rights because you invited my tax dollars in. And where my tax dollars go, I follow with a boot in the door. That’s what happens. No, I get to be involved in it. Yeah, you don’t.
SPEAKER 09 :
My body, my choice.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, no. It’s not my choice to pay your damn bills. So it’s not your body to make a choice of. No. If my money goes to it, I’m the boss of you. I will make I will go and knock that zinger right the hell out your hand. I’ll put a carrot in its place. OK. Oh, you want to have a little you want to have a little Debbie’s fudge round? Eat some cucumber or broccoli. Stop it. I have a right too. I have a right to go where my tax dollars go. And if you’re sucking up more of my tax dollars because you can’t get a handle on your weight, then that’s a problem for me. I shouldn’t have to subsidize that. No one thought of that when they were pushing for the expansion of Obamacare and jacking up everybody’s premiums so that we would have to pay for everyone else’s care. So no. And everyone’s like, oh, Dana. Look, I work really hard. To stay in shape and I eat healthy and I do intermittent fasting. I do all of that stuff. I’ve always worked out. I’ve always been athletic. I’ve always maintained. And it’s not because a privilege just decided to, you know, a fairy godmother apparated out of the ether and was like, I’m going to make you like this forever. It’s you actually it’s an effort. And I don’t want to hear about anyone else’s problems or excuses. I don’t care. Make the effort. And don’t expect me to pay your medical bills because that’s the situation we’re all in. And as a result, no one can say that they have a right to be this or that. Since you wanted, you asked for this. We warned you. Don’t say that we didn’t warn you because we did. But back to my first question. What the hell is weight neutrality? What is that? Like I’m trying to imagine. So, you know, we have a lot of truckers that listen. God love them. Is that like when do they do that for the weight on your truck? You know, like if you go in and you’re a weigh station and like, oh, you’re weight neutral to a truck and they’re low. Do they say that?
SPEAKER 1 :
No.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, I don’t know.
SPEAKER 09 :
I’m pretty positive. No.
SPEAKER 16 :
I’m just fascinated by I’ve never I’m today years old. I’ve never heard of that phrase. The whole weight neutrality thing. Right now, I will say this. I do think that some chicks can go way too far the other way. Like I always bring up Madonna as an example. She at some point as you age, my grandmother always said at one point in her life, a woman has to choose between her face or her body. Now, I’ve already told you guys, maybe I haven’t been public about it, what my goal is. Because everyone always thinks I’ve never had plastic surgery or anything like that for the love. But I do have a plan to combat wrinkles when it starts setting in. I mean, I got a little bit here and there. But I got a plan. You want to know my plan? I’m going to get fat. It’s natural filler. I’m just going to… Because I choose face. That’s it. I choose face. Because you can’t hide ugly. That’s why.
SPEAKER 09 :
Do you have the right to be fat then at that point?
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, I’m going to do it in like a healthy way. I’m not going to be like morbidly obese. That’s totally my plan. All right. My grandmother was like, and she said the age is different. What she told me was this. She was like, at some point in her life, a woman has to choose between face or body. And I’m like, well, she’s like, you won’t know until you get there. And then she looked at me and she was like, I chose face. She was like, that’s why she was like very proud. She’s like, that’s why I chose face. That’s why I don’t have hardly no wrinkles. That’s what she would say. And I get it. So that’s my that’s my I’m kind of joking, but not really. That’s my whole goal. But not like morbidly obese. Just, you know. I’m just saying. It’s all natural. But there’s a difference. You don’t want to be like visceral and tawny like Madonna, right? I don’t want to see like your… Your ligaments and stuff like I don’t you a woman should look like beef jerky. You know what I mean? Like you’re supposed to be soft. I don’t don’t don’t be brainwashed by these, you know, fourth wave fembots into thinking that you can’t have any fat on your body. Women need it. And especially as you get older, you know, you’re you need that fat. extra especially if you get older because you know it helps you when you’re an older age so anyway i still don’t understand what weight neutral is i’m gonna hear from every trucker who listens to us i am gonna get treaties on it that’s what’s gonna happen like big essays on it i can’t wait and now all of the news you would probably miss it’s time for dana’s quick five I don’t even know what the, this is nuts. So this story, apparently it can’t be Christmas here until the city shoots lasers at 20,000 crows. Mm-hmm. I don’t know. It’s over at MSN. So apparently, and by the way, whoever David Andretta is, he’s a horrible journalist who should be fired because he doesn’t know how to write a proper balanced story. I shouldn’t have to get three quarters of the way through before I know what the hell you’re talking about because you decide to talk about the birds. But anyway, it was an outbreak of West Nile virus. And I guess they’re trying to do like vermin control. So it’s in… a couple of different cities that they’re having to deal with. This story is so stupid. Let’s see here. We got a couple others. Firefighter dressed as Santa battled two-alarm blaze in Delaware County. That’s pretty cool. And, well, we’re running out of time. We got to get moving. Stick with us. I went long last segment. Apologies. Back in a moment.
SPEAKER 12 :
Subscribe to the Dana Show podcast because who says you can’t make fun of people while staying informed on your own personal time? Subscribe on YouTube, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts.
SPEAKER 04 :
with my OEM team. On the way here, I was on the phone with my OEM team, and we now have guidance coming from the state. And that guidance does say two different things. First of all, if there is a downed drone in our vicinity, we are immediately to call the bomb squad of our county. And second, our fire department has been instructed to make sure they wear hazmat suits.
SPEAKER 19 :
So if something falls out of the sky that people have seen, and some of these things are as big as an SUV, if that happens, you’re to treat this More than a plane crash. It’s treated like an attack on the homeland?
SPEAKER 04 :
That is correct, because they’re not quite sure if there’s a payload or not.
SPEAKER 16 :
So it sounds like it’s the nuke stuff. That was one of the theories that was going around. And then apparently it’s trying to find radioactive material. I mean, everything so far that’s being said kind of makes sense. sense with that. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you, bottom of this third hour. I’m looking at this Newsweek piece that dives into it a little bit more and that gets into the whole mysterious, you know, the drone fever. They said at first they thought it could maybe be a potential gas leak. Now they’re thinking that maybe it’s like radioactive material. And all of these aerospace and, you know, people who are experts basically in these industries, they’ve all said that they don’t think it’s nefarious, but they think that the only reason that they’re flying that low is because they’re basically trying to suss out something on the ground, like gas leaks, pockets of radiation. They’re looking for something very important. And I just, if that’s the case, what is the… harm in telling the public that? Or do you think it’s bad if they tell the public, oh, by the way, we lost some radioactive stuff. We got to have these drones out there to suss it out at night. Be careful. Right? Do you think the public would go nuts if… They were told that there was like some lost nuclear or whatever radioactive material out there?
SPEAKER 09 :
I mean, they’re kind of being told that now. They’re saying that that’s part of the speculation.
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, it’s everybody else’s speculation that the government’s not putting to bed.
SPEAKER 09 :
But that’s all it was, remember, on Sunday and yesterday when we talked about this on the show. And you’re like, oh, that’s just one guy saying that now.
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, now… Now it’s a lot of guys saying that.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, you know what I mean? So it does evolve, eventually evolve. So I’m not really certain how crazy this will evolve.
SPEAKER 16 :
I’m just curious if… They lost it. Who took it? I mean, how did they lose it? Or was it stolen? And if it was stolen, what for? I got a lot of questions. Although, then you have that one lawmaker, Van Drew, who came out and said, no, it’s the Iranian mothership. Which, you know, also kind of sounds like it could make sense. None of them, none of them confirm my favorite theory, though. Kane.
SPEAKER 09 :
I know what it is.
SPEAKER 16 :
Alien. Just saying. Just saying. They said that, I don’t even, I looked at the Project Bluebeam thing where global elites plan to stage a fake alien invasion. That seems like a Rube Goldberg kind of operation to, I don’t put a lot of, I don’t know. When my government tells me to do something, I don’t want to do it. And when they tell me to believe something, I don’t want to believe it. I am so anti-authority that I can barely follow push down and turn directions. Because I’m like, are you trying to be the boss of me? I argue with everything in my life. Are you trying to be the boss of me, bottle? I’m so anti-authority. So bad. It’s a problem, Kane. It’s a real issue.
SPEAKER 09 :
Childproof caps. Huh? Anti-childproof caps.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, like push down and turn. How dare you tell me what to do, bottle? I’ll do what I want. I’ll open you how I want. But you know what I mean. So I don’t know. I mean, I kind of wish they would stage a fake alien invasion. Give us something to do. I’m bored to tears all this, like, the same goofy Froot Loops in D.C. Yes?
SPEAKER 09 :
I was talking to Juan this morning, and you know how it is every year. We do this every year. We get to December. We’re getting into the holiday season. And then what does the government do with the news cycle? They start dumping all the bad stuff during the time of the year that most people aren’t paying attention to the news. So, yeah, I believe that there’s going to be some sort of something. Yeah.
SPEAKER 16 :
Wait, no, you’re not joking.
SPEAKER 09 :
No. I think there will be. Now, whether or not these are going to be real aliens, whether or not it won’t be some sort of Project Blue beamy type thing.
SPEAKER 16 :
I don’t even care.
SPEAKER 09 :
I don’t even know.
SPEAKER 16 :
If you guys don’t know what the Project Blue Beam conspiracy theory is, which I didn’t know until I dove into this, that’s basically like all the superpowers of the world. They want to fake. It’s like the new QAnon. They want to fake aliens. an alien invasion so they can seize power. I mean, what other power are they going to seize? I mean, everybody kind of folded over COVID and showed you how susceptible, you know. Did people learn from that? I don’t know. I don’t know. Because I feel like they already did that. They already did it. Just in a way. All right. I got a few other things we got to hit as well. We’ve got… I’m pulling up some things here. Oh, this is this story about I mentioned the CNN thing earlier. I almost couldn’t believe this when I saw it. I don’t know who this Clarissa Ward is. People keep saying that she’s an actress and I wasn’t familiar with her. She’s like decided to she’s a British actress. person with CNN, I guess she was, I don’t know, she started at Fox. And I don’t know why they say that she’s like this, like an actress or something. But she’s, I don’t know, she’s very dramatic, as you will, if you’ve watched any of this footage when she’s gone and saved saved this dude. So they had this segment on CNN. where Clarissa Ward was over there in Syria and she’s reporting on the collapse of the Assad regime and all this stuff. And she saves, they save this, save this guy who is apparently, and it was all staged. They acted like they were rescuing him from a prison. And as it turns out, He was actually an intelligence officer in the Assad regime. And I guess he was acting like he was a prisoner. And he was acting like he had been kept prisoner. And he’s really putting on this big show of being freed. And it turns out he was not only an intelligence officer with the Assad regime, but he also was one of his main torturers. Yeah. The main torturers. One of the big guys that Assad used. And they brought him out. And he’s like hugging. He hugged Clarissa Ward. And he acts like he’s so relieved. Like I can’t believe it.
SPEAKER 13 :
Like this poor innocent man that we’ve saved. We saved him from the presence. And he was just kept against his will.
SPEAKER 16 :
And he was one of the baddies. I mean, they’re all baddies at this point, but he was one of the legit baddies over there. So now CNN had to admit, this was a headline that they had, quote, freed prisoner who said he was a victim of the Assad regime was an intelligence officer, locals say. He was actually a literal lieutenant in the Air Force Intelligence Directorate. Oh! Oh, they helped free this guy. He’s known for harassment and extortion and all kinds of stuff, all kinds of stuff. You know, CNN, the guy who literally looked at this Syrian interrogator. This baddie. And they thought he was an innocent torture victim. He’s leaning on her. Oh, my gosh. He’s like, I’m so happy. I’m so happy. I can’t believe I can barely walk. Someone get him a chair. This poor man. CNN has a member of the Assad regime that they are state. And here’s the other thing. They take the guy out of the prison cell. What does she do? They sit him down and they immediately go into an interview. They weren’t even, even if he wasn’t a torturer, they were not concerned about getting him to a hospital or anything like that. She’s like, oh no, I’ve got to sit you down and I have to interview you for my program. Let’s do that now. And then he acts like he’s shaking and he can’t eat. He was jailing people. He was torturing people. He’s one of the baddies. He’s one of the baddie baddies. And he acts like he’s, I just, I’m just yet but a simple man. I just can’t. I’m just so sad. I can’t believe you freed me, CNN, you bastion of reporting, the giant of international journalism. Can you imagine being her and then waking up after you think you’ve done like a Pulitzer level story? And this happens because, you know, that’s what she was thinking. She was just like, I watched this. I watched that whole thing. She’s like, let’s get you sit. I mean, she was just. But at the same time, it barely masked her glee at being able to have a story like this. You know, oh, let’s get you for an interview. They pull the guy right out of a cell. They’re like, OK, let’s sit you down in a chair. Now it’s time for an interview. I mean, at least she was thinking business first, I guess. You know, that’s what CNN likes.
SPEAKER 09 :
And I mean, this may not be a popular opinion, but to me, she’s like the female Charles Jaco.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, don’t. He’s going to sue the Internet again, Kane.
SPEAKER 09 :
Good luck, Charles.
SPEAKER 16 :
Do you guys know who Charles Jaco is? He is a sentient skin tag who has some hair on it. And he came from St.
SPEAKER 09 :
Louis. What you said is worse than what I said.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, I mean that you said that I was like burned. But no, I. So Charles Jaco is the sentient. He’s a he’s a sentient skin tag. It was the couple of stray hairs on him. And it started reporting for CNN. And he apparently faked this whole report about being in Iraq or something like that.
SPEAKER 09 :
And he was on a set. Shelled and bombed.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah. And he acted like he was getting bombed and shelled. It was the worst acting I’ve ever seen in my life. And then later, this was like 13, 14 years ago, people on the internet were making fun of him. And he legit threatened to sue the entire internet. Right. And I was here because when I started on radio, I started at a station in St. Louis and he used to work. It was a cluster. He used to work at one of the other stations there. And the story goes is that he would go take his coffee cup of coffee that he drank and And to warm it up, he would go, he would pour it into the coffee pot, swirl it around and then pour it back into his mug. And he got caught like a couple of different times, according to numerous people that worked. I was only told this. I didn’t say this. Other people did. And, uh, that’s nasty.
SPEAKER 09 :
It’s illegal, isn’t it?
SPEAKER 16 :
I don’t know. I mean, this was like back in like the early aughts. So I don’t know. I wasn’t, I don’t know. I think when he was there, it was like the late nineties. I was totally not there at that time. But, uh, Oh, and he was so nasty towards me, but I always felt bad for him because he was, you know, a skin tag. And, you know, I don’t know what kind of future they have. So sad.
SPEAKER 09 :
But yeah, she reminds me of him. They have the same look in their eyeballs. They have the same work ethic, it appears. And people respond to them the same way. And I’ve seen all these videos on Miss Ward getting approached by different nationalities, different people, just scolding her over their misrepresentation and reporting.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, the guy was like, I’m a civilian. And he was like, my captors have beaten me. And you could just see the look on her face. She was trying to hide it like, this is too good to be true. And as it turned out, then there was a news outlet that published a photo of this guy. He gave her a fake name and everything. He said his name was Adel Gerbal. That dude does not even exist. They found out that he is First Lieutenant Salama Mohammed Salama of the Air Force Intelligence Directorate, literally the agency that runs the prison. He runs the prison. She thought she was getting this poor victim. Instead, she got literally the guy who was running the prison. And what gets me is that they didn’t even bother verifying anything. They’re like, oh, let’s take this man out of let’s take this man and put him in a chair and interview him immediately. Got to have the exclusive. You notice something about him in Slack. What did you say in Slack? About him?
SPEAKER 09 :
Oh, yeah, that he was perfectly manicured and he wasn’t dirty. That jacket looked pretty all right.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, he didn’t look like he was starved or nothing either. That room?
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, exactly.
SPEAKER 16 :
You know, like what a prisoner would want to look, what a prisoner would look like. Yeah. So, and people were saying that they did not trust her story. And there were apparently even some Syrians there, like, CNN, what you doing? What? This is, no, this is not how you do the journalism. No. And they said it came to your point. They said he was too well groomed and did not act like someone who was locked in a dungeon for three months. And that is per number of people on Verify Sci.
SPEAKER 09 :
That’s why I have to wonder because Charles Jaco was with CNN back in the late 80s, early 90s. And so now we have Claire Sir Ward, CNN, all about faking wartime stories around times of tension. Is that intentional by CNN for decades now? That just seems weird.
SPEAKER 16 :
it’s a good point that you make. I don’t know. I’m just saying, but I don’t think she’s going to get that Pulitzer though. No, I don’t think she, cause it’s too bad. It’s too bad. I mean, it is really embarrassing. It’s just really not great for her.

SPEAKER 16 :
I was reading this debrief from Kamala Harris’s deputy campaign manager. I think it was Semaphore that had it. And they said that Rob Flaherty had after she became the nominee, he turned his attention to sports. They needed to introduce Harris quickly to people who aren’t obsessed with politics. And they said sports is perhaps America’s last remaining monoculture. And they decided to book her on all these sports shows and podcasts. But everybody began turning her down like everyone. They were very polite, but they all turned her down. And they said sports and culture have sort of merged together and they’ve become sort of natively associated with a Trump conservative set values. And it said it complicated. It got more complicated for athletes to come out in favor of us, he said. He goes, because they didn’t want to do politics. I don’t think that’s fascinating in terms of the guy, Flaherty said it was fascinating that they were rejecting it. No, it’s not. They were being smart about it. I mean, you’re a pretty bad deputy campaign manager if you can’t read the tea leaves on that one. Good heavens. All right, Cain, today in stupidity.
SPEAKER 09 :
All right, it is our current vice president. Is she doing anything now that she lost the election? I mean, she’s still vice president, right?
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 09 :
This is Kamala Harris. Maybe you can understand what she’s saying here. Let’s hear this.
SPEAKER 17 :
And I ask you to remember. Yeah. The context in which you exist.
SPEAKER 09 :
Alright.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, I did that.
SPEAKER 09 :
What?
SPEAKER 17 :
Uh-huh.
SPEAKER 09 :
I think she’s drank every day since November 5th.
SPEAKER 16 :
Mm-hmm. I don’t think that she’s already drunk on eggnog. I mean, most of you all wait till Christmas Eve, but she’s already there.
SPEAKER 09 :
She won’t be sober till 2020.
