Speaker 1 (00:00):
What were you alluding to.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Look, what I have to do is build a strong country.
You can't really watch the stock market. If you look
at China, they have one hundred year perspective. We have
a quarter. We go by quarters, that's true, and you
can't go by that. You have to do what's right.
What we're doing is we're building a tremendous foundation for
the future, tremendous foundation.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
There's going to be a lot of talk of the economy,
a lot of talk of what all these programs are
going to be costing, because we are in the middle
of the well, yeah, the middle of basically what is
the second budget fight that's coming up, And we're going
to talk about some of that today because that's uh, well,
that's what Republicans are going to be fighting. They're going
to be dealing with that all day, all the rest

(00:44):
of this week, because you've got to have that. I mean,
we we've got to have some kind of budget. We've
got to have something. We haven't had one in when's
the last time, Yeah, I think so. I mean, I'm
like thinking out loud here, like, well, yeah, I think
that I actually was the last time there, Yeah, I
think that was it. So it's and everything that he's

(01:06):
talking about is going to be affected by this, and
we're going to highlight some of that. We've got a
lot to get into today as we get started. Welcome
to the show, Dan and Lash with you. I wanted
to play also because it's been it's been kind of
a busy news week, because you had all kinds of
stuff with regard to Ukraine everything, and then of course

(01:27):
the economy as well. One of the things that I
thought Trump said this is audio somebody seven because he
had he did, he'd answered a lot of oh no, sorry,
not seven. Uh do w do three? Because this is
the inflation aspect of it. He I think he's starting
to message. I don't know if it's too late him
messaging this, but he's starting to message on inflation, especially

(01:49):
as you know, if it gets hit as it pertains
to tariffs. Listen to this.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
I've had you wouldn't have had inflation. We had record
setting inflation under Biden. It was a killer one of
the reasons I won the election.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
But you may get it again with these tariffs, right.
I mean, once CEO said to me, my input costs.

Speaker 4 (02:06):
Ever already started to go up.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
I'm going to have to raise prices in the meantime.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Guess what interest rates are down for the last three
or four days at good levels. I mean, you know
when you add interest rates you're talking about, it's gone down.
We've been I've been saying, let's get interest rates down.
You know, nobody ever gets rich when the interest rates
are high because people can't borrow money.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
He's right on that. He's right on that count. I
heard some I think he's better messaging than some of
his surrogates on this stuff, because I was listening to
one of his surrogates this morning. I can't remember WHI
show was on, but I just I thought her the
way that she spoke about this was was just a
little off base because she was saying, Yeah, people are
going to go you know, if there's going to be
any kind of struggle, if there's going to be any problem,

(02:52):
you know, people are going to go along with it.
I'm thinking they're not not, especially if you don't message properly.
They're not going to go along with it, because this
is their money. Unless you message properly, they're they're not
going to go along with anything. So this has been
this has been a huge issue and we're going to
try to figure out you know, I I don't know

(03:14):
what they got to get it together though, because Friday's
the day, because you have what is it, March eleventh?
I think so also X is down, so we're not
going to be able. I know a lot. I've already
field it a million things that I did not do it.
It has been like this all morning. Can correct. People
are like, what happened to the I didn't do it?
I promise it's not anything I did. But so there's

(03:37):
going to be because I think a lot of people
stream the show also on X and things like that.

Speaker 5 (03:41):
We're on Rumble today, just Rumble at the moment, So
as soon as X gets back up, we'll make that happen.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
We'll get it all, we'll get it all situated. So
just some of the stuff, just some of the stuff
that we've got that we've got coming up. We're also
going to talk about the latest with a Iran all
of that. Can we talk about the immigration though? Let
this off because this is where we had Tom home
and you were just listening to him discuss this the
CPB app This is actually pretty brilliant and the of

(04:11):
course I can't bring this up either because this was
a this was a thread from Bill Malugians. So essentially,
you guys know the the CBP app, right, Uh, the
CBP app. I keep having to say it very slowly.
People are essentially now self deporting. Well you have to
self deport. So what's happening is the app is being
repurposed and they are going to use it to for

(04:37):
you know, people who have this app, and it's already
I guess updating this in this regard, it's already updating.
So they're saying that with the app, you can self deport,
and if you choose to self deport, then you actually
have the ability to come back into the country. And

(04:59):
so that's the latest. That's what they're doing with this app,
which I think is actually pretty brilliant, But I don't
know how many people are are are going to actually
take you know, take them up on that.

Speaker 6 (05:10):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
I mean I think it's I think it's pretty brilliant.
So this is something that was announced I think it
was yesterday, like you late yesterday when it came out,
and they are retooling the app and then you have
the option and I was pulling up the screen it's
on X, and of course X is down. But I
was pulling up the screen and you can choose. You

(05:35):
get an option. You have like a not a pull
down menu, but you have this option, and they didn't
launch it. I wanted a highlight. It's not a new app.
They reconfigured the Biden CB it's I keep saying cpb
CBP app. So they reconfigured this app and this is
this is the the app where they can notify the

(05:56):
government if they're self deporting. And you heard you were
heard Holman who has been you know, handling all of
this and I don't know whose idea was. It's a
brilliant idea. But do you think they're actually gonna do it?
I mean that's the million dollar question. Are they actually
going to do it? I don't know. I don't know.

(06:20):
I would think that if anyone wants to enter the
re enter the country, I legally that it's something that
they would that they would want to do.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
But it's the existing app, so they can highlight on
it if they want to self deport or not. And
they they can actually as they come in, they can
make an appointment with regards to you know, at the
point of entry et cetera, et cetera. Uh, and they can,
they can make their appointment, they can notify. I guess
that get information as to the immigration judge if they

(06:50):
still choose. I don't. But is it gonna incentivize people
actually to do it? I mean, I don't. I just
don't know if I have a lot of faith in
that stuff. Kane, do you think that people are actually
going to self deport with us, I don't. I don't
believe that.

Speaker 5 (07:02):
I think it depends on how I mean, how deeply
they care about getting actual citizenship, Like if they really
do care, like they if they thought by getting in
illegally and then they could just, you know, finagle their
way into being a citizen. Now they're looking at this
and saying, well, if I get caught up and don't
actually self deport, I may not I may have ruined
my chances for life, yeah, of doing that. So I

(07:25):
think it depends on their seriousness.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
I just think it's interesting that it updates automatically. So
if you are, you know, in the country and you
have this app, I just think I just like the
fact that it updates automatically and that it's not anything
I mean, it's already. I mean, if you already have
it on your phone, then it's already on your it's
you know that it's there. Uh, And and you have
verified departure view your departure. The language is submit intent

(07:49):
to depart and you can submit information regarding your intent
to depart the United States. So those are the options
that you have with that now.

Speaker 5 (08:00):
And I can tell you even if some of them
whatever tried, don't bother self deporting. The silver lining is
still we were forty to fifty thousand people a month
coming through via the app. Now that number has completely
so at least there's that silver lining no matter what
happens from this point forward.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
I mean, even if you have entered the country illegally.
So I'm looking at the language that's been put out
about it, forget there's there's a lot of information here
it says that even so you even if you have
you know you entered illegally, or if you had your
parole revoked after the ending of like I don't know
if it's like the flooras if that's what they're talking about,

(08:39):
or if you're giving the chance you can or you
can also get the chance to tell DHS if you're
self deporting, so it doesn't They said that they implemented
that way that into it also so as to incentivize
not levying harsher conditions onto people, like detention or the
expedited removal. So they even if they're here illegally, they

(09:02):
have an ability to make it easier on themselves by
doing this self deporting. If it's really about, as you
were saying, entering the country and you know, becoming a citizen.
So I think that's actually really good. I think it's
a really good h I think it's a very good
approach with it. And I don't know, however many people,

(09:23):
I mean, I don't expect coyotes and drug cartel members
to do it.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
Anti Musk demonstrations, which I think are entirely AstroTurf, are
growing across the United States, apparently so. They had a
bunch of people outside of stores in London, in Portugal
and Malaysia. They why because he's not they don't have
a doge, why are people like protesting? They had demonstrations there,

(09:47):
They had some here in the US. They had about
two hundred and fifty people that showed up outside of
a showroom in New York City and they held anti
Musk place cards and these they read, block fascism. Now
Musk must go. Musk is not elected, do George Soros.
Now democracy must be protected. So they think if you're

(10:11):
cutting wasteful spending, fraud and abuse, then somehow that's ending democracy.
I'm so confused by these people. So they said that
these activists, they had them, They two hundred and fifty
outside in New York. They had five arrested for disorderly conduct,
violation of local laws. They had a showroom in Salem, Oregon,

(10:33):
where apparently this showroom in Salem was shot up by
this guy named Adam Lanski forty one, and he apparently
is also he's being accused of causing major damage at
the same store with molotov cocktails. In January, they set
four cyber trucks on fire in a Seattle industrial neighborhood.

(10:55):
Let's say this is terrorism, that's all. This is domestic terrorism.
If you're in gauging in this, this is terrorist. That's
exactly what it is. I love that they said that
the fire, the cyber trucks that were fired, They said
that they that they had to take precautions to limit
hazard because of the lithium batteries. But they said it's
too early in the investigation to determine whether or not

(11:17):
if it was arson. Are you serious, It's yeah, it's
not too early. The folks over at My Family Pharmacy
they this website has saved me more time than I
can count. I mean my health, my actual literal health.
I've been I would stick over a holiday and it
was like Thanksgiving, I had a host I was getting

(11:38):
struck throat. The urgent care was like a crazy I
just I couldn't even get into my E and t

Speaker 5 (12:41):
And now all of the news you would probably miss
it's time for Dana's Quick five.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
So I actually saw this, I think in a documentary
a while ago. But now they're saying that it looks
like Noah's Ark has been found a boat shaped mound.
I mean it could also be like a filled up crevasse.
They said it was found in Turkey, was underwater five
thousand years ago, the same period as the biblical flood.

(13:07):
A team of researchers found it. They said it's eighteen
miles south of Mount Ararat. Yeah, eighteen miles. It's the
fossilized remains of a wooden vessels. What they're saying it's
called I can't pronounce this, the drum formation. That's exactly
what it's called. Sounds exactly right. Five hundred and thirty

(13:27):
eight feet of geological structure made of iron ore called limonite,
and it's so that's what they're saying. They think it
could be a Noah's ark, which is totally palpable, very
fascinating looking thing. A secret Service shot an armed man
in a confrontation near the White House in a classic
case of FAFO. The police had reported that it was
a suicidal individual. It sounded like suicide a cop is

(13:50):
what it's sound like, possibly traveling to DC from Indiana.
They took him to a hospital. Condition was unknown at
that time. A US run system alerts the world to famine,
and it's gone dark, they said, after Trump slashed foreign age,
you really need a giant US run system that alerts
you about famine and other foreign countries. Seriously, I mean,

(14:10):
we kind of know where the and it's not an
issue of famine, it's an issue of dictatorial control that
eliminates access to food. The book The Myth of World
Hunger is fascinating right in college, still still relevant today.
Also the h oh, they're trying to do measle cases.
He's look, I done thirty five percent a week found
in twelve states. Everybody freak out because it's measles. Measles, measles.

(14:33):
Everyone freak out, you know, just every single week it's something.
What was it last week? It was measles last week too,
a week before that bird flu. That's right, everyone's going
to dive bird flu. Now they're saying us measles. It's
jump over a third. This is kind of the same
fear mongering that we saw with RONA. However, like I've said,

(14:54):
I don't think all vaccines are bad. I just don't
like experimental government injection that are really therapeutics and their
their masks, their cost playing, their trans vaccines, their trans
scenes came. We just created something. Yeah, So I just
you know, I mean, used common sense. But I don't

(15:15):
believe that the government knows better than you. I thought
it was your body or choice. Or is that only
when it has to do with not wanting to be
responsible for an unplaying pregnancy? Okay, one of the Oh
this is heartbreaking. One of the last US survivors of
Pearl Harbor has passed away. At age one hundred and
two years old, Jesse Hayfey and one of the last
survivors of the USS Oklahoma. He passed away March first

(15:35):
in Alexandria at Louisiana at age one hundred and two.
It was only one of two survivors of the Oklahoma
known to be living. According to the president of the
California Chapter of Sons and Daughters of Pearl Harbor Survivors.
By that same tally, only fourteen who survived the nineteen
forty one attack are still alive. Fourteen fourteen. That's just
I just want to extend their lives as long as possible,

(15:57):
because that's when that generation, that greatest generation in those veterans,
when they're gone, you never obviously, you know, you never
get them back. But what a piece of living history
and just a great ingredient in our human DNA. Here
in the US we got a lot more on the
way stick with us now. I'm always going to carry
and I have zero problem and pump in a batty
full of lead, especially if they represent a threat to

(16:18):
me or my loved ones. But I also realized too
that a lot of people need different tools for different things.
You have blades, you have your firearms, you have your pistol,
you have your rifle. I mean, everybody's got different stuff
for those people like some friends of mine who live
in areas where even if they get a license to carry,
they can't carry hardly anywhere because the municipal are private
property restrictions. This is where bernagun comes in key because

(16:40):
you don't want to be completely defenseless in high crime areas,
and so the burner gun shoots chemical irritant projectiles that
can disable threats from up to fifty feet away. When
you compare it to regular stunt guns, they only have
like a couple of rounds. Berna has five. They have
different models, but the Berna SD is their most popular model.
It's their best selling model, and it's a good option
for self defense. There's nothing wrong with diversifying what you

(17:02):
have in terms of weapons. There's you can go and
check out all the different projectiles and accessories. And if
you go through Berna dot com slash data, that URL
is the way that you will knock ten percent off.

you need to diversify, visit burna dot com slash data

Speaker 4 (17:35):
We have the Republicans on the run on three core issues.
They are on the run in terms of the economy.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Oh are they in fact?

Speaker 4 (17:46):
Donald Trump and Republicans are crashing the economy in real time?

Speaker 1 (17:51):
Oh my gosh, that's Hickim Jefferies, who's head of the
Democrat Party. Welcome back, Dan and lash with you. I'd
say you could watch on X, but X's currently having
a mental abortion right now, so I don't know what's
going on, but you can find us on channel thirty
forty seven direg TV. The chats at Rumble. It's how
came Jefferies, the Democrat leader. Who came Jeffrees. I really

(18:17):
don't think that he sounds like he believes what he
just said. But I really got to applaud them for
their effort to try to say, well, Trump just got
into office. All of these things are his fault. Guys. Guys,
he literally they are literally passing a budget and I'm
going to use the word literally a lot here, So
bear with me because it helps me with the rage.

(18:39):
They are literally, and by day I mean Republicans actually
passing a continuing resolution that literally continues funding the whole
Joe Biden's scheme. So basically, they're taking Joe Biden's economy
and they're allowing it to go for another fiscal year.
That's what this continuing resolution. Oh no, there's no cuts

(19:02):
in it. No, there's no cuts. There's not even the
permanence of the tax cuts from twenty seventeen. They're not
even in here. The no tax on tips, Nope, not
in it. Nope, it's the existing framework that they're just
letting their kicking the can down the road. So Hakem
Jeffrey saying this, it's like literally yours your party's spending plan.

(19:26):
So I'm still blaming you. That's how that works, you see,
I'm still blaming them for this, just asinine. I've told
Caine over the week or actually on break, and I
have this realization, and this is part of it, because
there are people who read this stuff or they see
that sound bite and they're like, ooh, that's right, It's

(19:47):
totally right. This is Trump's economy. I'm already seeing it
from people like you can't even do math. And this
is when I realized, you know what, I really do
believe that the Internet is the greatest mistake that humanity
ever perpetuated against itself. I'm not kidding. I think it
is the worst mistake. And I say this as someone

(20:08):
who actually leveraged it to have the career that I
have now. And I've definitely used it for a lot
of good, way more good than bad. Some bad, but
more good than the bad, very enjoyable bad, but way
more good, lots of the good. I fully recognize that
I would probably not be sitting here behind a mic,

(20:29):
hanging out with you on a Monday afternoon had I
not have the Internet.

Speaker 5 (20:32):
I try to argue with you about it.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
You did, and I'm like, no, no, no, I still
even knowing that, even being fully aware that that's my origin,
I still think that it's the greatest mistake that's ever
that that humankind's ever perpetuated against itself.

Speaker 5 (20:47):
And then I said, what would what would make the
internet good for you?

Speaker 1 (20:50):
And I said take the people out, No people, that
is the Internet. Yeah, that's it.

Speaker 5 (20:59):
So you don't the Internet is bad.

Speaker 1 (21:02):
Yeah, ok, yeah, well I think you got to look
at what am I thinking of. There's some total of it.
You got to look at the sum total, think about
how they I really feel like there are more dumb
or dumb people now than.

Speaker 5 (21:16):
There were that I agree with or or.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
Or hear me out. It's just that with the Internet
you can see it more.

Speaker 5 (21:25):
Actually, maybe that's it.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
I don't know. I mean, I know that there were
dumb people back in the day whatever the day wasn't you.

Speaker 5 (21:31):
And I and and I would imagine most of our
audience grew up without the Internet. We know what life
is like without the Internet and.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Now and I got email in high school. Yeah see,
but I enter chat rooms playing like Slayer like the
coat it in there and it a so so stupid,
it's so cringe.

Speaker 5 (21:53):
I we understand that life can go on without the Internet,
which is why we can recognize the Internet for.

Speaker 1 (21:59):
What it is, right all right, and it's why it
aggravates us. My we were a weird generation because we
were like right in the middle of it. We had
a childhood free of it, but then when we got
to be teenagers, we had it.

Speaker 5 (22:11):
What was your first computer when.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
You IBM something. I don't know, it was secondhand something,
and I played a lot of games.

Speaker 5 (22:17):
I had a friend that had a like homework. Yeah,
but we got like a VIC twenty and then the.

Speaker 1 (22:22):
Company I don't even know what I do remember that
had that Mine was so old and it was like
a great value version of whatever you just said. The
com and and I don't even know what it was,
don't even know, but it had a dot matrix printer
and doss and everything else. It was wild, wild The

(22:42):
screen was green. But I felt so fancy because it
was mine, you know, even though it was like fourth hand,
I don't even care. It was mine.

Speaker 5 (22:53):
The first computer I used in school was a K
Pro and it looked like a.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
Suitcase like it was like a K pop band.

Speaker 5 (23:02):
The handle was actually the bottom of the keyboard and
the keyboard would attach to the face.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
Of this like box that was like a kid boodle.

Speaker 5 (23:10):
If you would take the keyboard off, and then there
would be a tiny little green screen there with the
floppy discs right there. And I don't know, floppy discs
I would have been making.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
You don't even know what those are. They're like, what
are these weird things? Remember the floppy disc and the sleeves. Yeah, gosh,
those are the days. And then got into high school
and the Apple started being everywhere, right, And then when
I got into college, it was that the big thing
in college was the different colors of the Apple computers

(23:41):
where you could get like the orange and the blue
and the green, and that you could Yeah, that's we
had some of those in college and the newspaper staff.
But but yeah, so anyway, long story short, Internet horrible, great,
worst thing ever to happen in humans, horrible, horrible, so
mean to us and we're mean to ourselves with it.
But then I completely understand that there's some great things,
but I think in some total I would forego the

(24:02):
great to get over the bad. And again I say
this as somebody who knows I I'm sitting behind the
mic because of the Internet, you know. I mean that's
how I got. I had the Internet, and we squatted
literally in an old abandoned building off of Washington Avenue
downtown Saint Louis and did like a webzine I mean
it was, and then got started that. I mean that's seriously. Yeah,

(24:23):
so long story short, you know, ignore the squatting part
that had nothing to do with the Internet. But I
just I look at this stuff because I you know it.
King Jeffrees puts this out and there are people who
are like well to King Jeffreys, and their reasoning is
King Jeffreys is a Democrat, and he's a Democrat with
influence in the Democrat Party, and he's elected, so what
he says must be true. It's like believe by association.

(24:47):
It's the weirdest thing. You're confirming your bias just by
association alone. I mean, I I don't know. The whole
thing is. I still maintain that the Internet is making
everybody absolutely stupid. Okay, so a few other things, and
I think that's also extending to some of the We're
gonna have to do some house cleaning. We gotta do

(25:09):
some house cleaning. So I don't know how many of
you were watching. I don't know there were. There were
a couple of big debates that took place over the weekend,
and one of those had to do with Syria. In
seventy two hours, you add thirteen hundred Syrians killed, and
many of them were Christians. And it's the Alo White

(25:32):
the Syrians, the terror campaign against these Alo white families
et cetera. And it was a big deal and then
all of a sudden there were some of these conservative
I don't stay conservative. One of the things that we
that the Internet I think contributes to is it doesn't
matter if it's correct. What matters is how amplified it is.
And the greater the amplification that means somehow, the greater

(25:57):
the veracity of the claim, which is so stupid, but
that's apparently how we're operating nowadays. So it doesn't matter
if what you're saying is true. What matters is well
are other people saying that it's true? Or how many
people have repeated what you said? And I bring this
up with this Syrian story. Can you heard about this
over the weekend? So this story, you add hundreds and

(26:22):
hundreds of minorities, including Christians and they're considered a minority
in Syria, who were killed. And this is the after
the ousting of Bashi Alissade, Right, they've had pro Sad fighters,
government forces, you had jihadis. I think that it's fair
to say that Bashir al Asad is a bad guy.

(26:44):
He's not the worst guy. We can allow we are
complex beings and we can allow for that thought he's
a bad guy, but he's not the worst guy. And
in Syria, Christians existed in Syria have to pay to
my knowledge, at Jizio, which is the tax on you know,
on non believers. They didn't have to pay. I don't

(27:05):
not my knowledge that they had to pay for that.
And now with a sad out, you have Jihatis. And
we did say you're gonna have Gihatis rolling through Syria
because you're going to create a power vacuum. You have
the minority Shia Muslim sect. They held a lot of
these top positions within the government, and now the Alloyites

(27:26):
are no longer in power. There've been revenge killings. There's
been a lot of highlighted or a lot of targeted
killings of Christians. And they had the three main Christian
churches apparently they all issued a joint statement condeding the
violence and massacres targeting innocent civilians. And it has been

(27:47):
just it's been a mess. Rubio said in a statement
yesterday that the US condemned the radical Islamist terrorists, including
the foreign g Hattis, who have been murdering people, including
the alloy At, the Kurdish, the Jurors, the Christian communities
offering their condolences to their family and interim authorities must
hold all of this, you know, they must hold them responsible.

(28:10):
I do say that you there is it's understandable that
when you take out someone who wasn't punishing people for
being Christian again, a bad guy, but not the worst guy.
Uh that when you allow Jihatis then to come in,
Uh yeah, Christians and everybody else who aren't you hotties
are probably going to end up being killed. It's almost
like everybody saw this coming, you know, and we were

(28:34):
talking about it. I don't know why it was like
such a great mystery or why it's people are shocked
that that, oh, now this is happening. You know, the
stuff that everybody was talking about leading up to this,
But what ended up happening over I don't know what
was going on with the right. You had people going
out there's I guess trying to run defense for Iran.
We're going to dive into this a little bit more

(28:54):
and later on with Stephen Yates. But the defense of Asad,
I've seen this bubbling up a lot. It's either you
have to believe that he is a great guy or
the enemy and there's no room for what I had
just laid out, that he's a bad guy, but not
the worst guy. And through this forced perspective, you either

(29:20):
have to adopt that he was great or you have
to think I mean, it's either or there's no middle ground.
There's no I mean, there aren't any really better angels
in this. But again part of the problem of the Internet.
People can read a thread on X and they think
I'm fully informed about the issue or the last AI,

(29:42):
which AI is still getting a lot of things wrong.
And then they think I'm fully informed on the issue.
You're just asking, you're just regurgitating something that confirms your bias,
and then you're reading it online and you're spitting it
out there. We're gonna talk more about this because somehow
this got blamed on all the Jews. I don't know,
it became a Jewish issue. How did that even happen.
We're going to discuss all of this coming up. We

(30:02):
get some house cleaning to do as we move. It's
our friends over at Preborn. This is a great organization
that does so much to help moms and babies, particularly
saving babies, and every life is a gift, and there's
a story. I remember reading about Andrea Bocelli and Tim

(30:23):
Tebow and Steph Curry. Apparently at one point their mothers
were told are suggested to them that they should just
have an abortion, and their mothers didn't listen. Can you
imagine how they good grief. Every baby has the potential
to change the world. So what Preborn does is they
meet women where they are, walk alongside them in crisis,
offering love and support and free ultrasounds so that they

(30:45):
can see their miracle of life growing within. And that's
when a woman faces an un planned pregnancy, fear and pressure,
especially fear and pressure amplified by a society that wants
a woman to believe that she cannot raise a child
drowns out the truth right that she absolute lutely can
and that her baby is full of promise. And so
Preborn steps in. They step in with compassionate care, They

(31:06):
offer hope, support, ultrasounds. They also partner with these women
up for the first two years of life to make
sure that they're on their feet and that this young,
growing family has the best chance of success. So they
have a real passion for saving babies from abortion and
seeing women not just be able to take care of
their families and become the mother that they know they
could be, but also come to faith as well. All

Speaker 5 (32:13):
Like SAMs through the Only Glass. So are the days
of the United States.

Speaker 8 (32:19):
It is not a criminal violation to enter the country illegally.
It's not a criminal.

Speaker 6 (32:26):
It's crime.

Speaker 8 (32:26):
It's not a crime, which is why they're so frustrating
things because they really want our local law enforcement to
go out and round up people when they could be
looking out for the murderers and the sexual abusers as
well as the robbers. They want them to go and
round people up on civil accusations.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
And so, okay, I've got a number of issues here.
First is why did you use the word illegal? Number one, like,
it's not she's out here, that's what's her face, Jasmine.
I don't like the fact of her last name's Crockett.
How you doing davy this memory that way? But she
says that it's not a crime to enter illegally. What

(33:05):
you just it's not a crime to inter criminally, But
you just use the phrase illegally and it is. You
can say it isn't, but it actually is. It's a statute.
It's a real thing. You know that. They don't believe this.
They just don't want there to be penalties for it.

(33:26):
That's the big difference with us. They just don't want
there to be any kind of existing penalties this stuff.
I know we've been saying this now since since Trump won,
but I really feel like Democrats have no idea what
to do. They have no messaging, no cohesion, no unity,
they have no I don't really think if you've got

(33:47):
all of them in a room that they would even
understand what their party's purpose is. What is your purpose
as a party? And it can't just be h hit trum,
I mean you can't. People need more than just that.
They need more, a lot more. I would like for

(34:08):
there to be multiple healthy parties because I like choices
as a consumer, as a voter, I like to have choices,
and I don't want one side to get so dumb
that it allows the other side to get dumb because
they feel like they don't have to strive for any
kind of higher level because they're just measuring. You always

(34:30):
look great if you're measuring yourself by the lowest common denominator.
So I don't think Republicans should contrast themselves against Democrats
all the time. How about you you measure yourself against
the Constitution and not Democrats, because everybody looks anybody can
look good measured against them. Measure yourself against the Constitution.

(34:51):
Is it constitutional what I'm doing? Is this vote constitutional?
Is this proposal constitutional? Is this cr constitutional? Is this
budget institutional That's the only litmus test, and I really
feel like Republicans are not learning this giant lesson here.
So coming up the latest in Syria, we're also going

(35:12):
to talk about some of there's a rot on the
right and I'm just mystified over some of this. We're
going to touch on a little bit of it here
coming up in the second hour. Also, they've gotten politically
correct with Harry Potter. Yeah, I think I can't wait
for a Samurai movie. Although I think who is it

(35:33):
that did this? It was at Newbiesoft? Who is it
the today? It was the Assassin's Cree people that messed up.
We should take a page. Let's just do a Samurai
movie and just cast entirely like blonde haired, blue eyed people.
You know, I mean, who cares? Right, that's apparently what
it is anymore. We're going to discuss that because the
casting for this new Harry Potter series is just my

(35:53):
numbingly stupid. So we've got to have this discussion. Also,
let me pull this up because we got a lot
for you. We got to get into some of the
with Gaza. The latest of Gaza lights out, On, Out,
Off On kind of back and forth. We're gonna get
into that the budget battle, Trump collars Doge, Mike Johnson

(36:13):
apparently splits from Musk on some of this stuff. We're
gonna highlight all of this and more. Stick with us
second hour on the Way We Love Gold. Although the

Speaker 9 (37:30):
Well. Right now, the House is controlled by the Republicans,
the Senate is controlled by the Republicans, and the Presidency
is in the hands of the Republicans. So it is
their job to make sure that the government has the
resources it needs in order to continue the function. And
I think the American people are well aware of that fact,
and that is who they are going to blame.

Speaker 1 (37:50):
Yeah, I don't think that it works that way, because,
first off, it's very easy, and we said this last
hour to claim that Republicans are in charge of everything,
so therefore everything is their fault. When everybody knows that
the mechanics move a lot slower than that number one
number two. They're passing a continuing resolution that literally continues

(38:12):
funding government exactly the way that Joe Biden and Democrats
ordained it. It changes nothing. There are no cuts included,
no tax cuts, none of the no tax on tips,
You're not getting any of that. It just prolongs the
existing framework of Biden's whole fiscal thing for the next
fiscal year. That's so what she's saying there. It's still

(38:35):
what Democrat. This is why people like myself are so
mad at Republicans right now, because they're continuing democrats economic
policies and that's what the CR battle is over. And
they have this, they have this resolution that they've got
to move on by I think it's what Friday, and

(38:56):
they've I don't know whether or not they're going to actually,
I mean I don't they're not gonna They're supposed to
be taking it up. Johnson unveiled the funding bill that
they had pushed through. They're trying to have this stop
gap measure that keeps government funding going for I think
what until September, until fall. But I don't know if

(39:17):
that's something that because there's such a narrow majority. And again,
can I just point out and I'm going to complain
one more time about this. This is why some of
us were very critical of Potus picking out of House
for his cabinet, because we have two seats short right now,
they're not filled. You have Mike Waltz's seat, and you
have gaged a seat, and Florida can go as fast
as Florida is going. They're trying to go as fast
as possible. But you have constitutional processes that you according

(39:41):
to each state's constitution, that they have to follow to
fill a seat. And so you have two seats that
are open. They could be Republican, but they're not there.
Waltz is in the cabinet. Gates try to get in
the cabinet, but the reported ethica, ethics baggage and that
he has is going to probably prevent, fear sure political
office effort for always. But those two seats being open,

(40:07):
you barely have. You have the narrowest majority in the
House in the past one hundred years, the narrowest majority.
And so whether or not Johnson can get this stop
gap and it's still trash. But whether or not he
can get that through to avoid a shutdown without having

(40:28):
to have Democrats, that's gonna be really problematic. He's gonna
have to have Democrats to vote to get it to pass,
and that means that there's gonna have to be it's
gonna be even dumber than what it is already. So
there you go. He said he's gonna bring it to
a vote. It probably come tomorrow, runs out Friday, and
they said that they don't know. They don't know. They

(40:50):
haven't negotiated this stop gap with Democrats, so I don't know.
They have to be able to pass it. Trump said
that if Johnson gets the build of his desk, he'll
sign it because he doesn't want to shut down less
than two months into his term. So this is something
that Republicans are they have to deal with and strategize around,
because I mean, they've been handed this ticking time bomb

(41:13):
of an economy. And everyone I heard this morning there
were a number of talking talking heads that were saying, no, no, no, no,
we're not really going to have a recession. If we
don't do anything to stop the government spending and balance
some of these things, then yes, we absolutely are going
to have one. That's not really up for debate. I
think the debate is the severity of it, but not

(41:35):
whether or not it actually manifests. So they've got to
get their financial house in order, and Democrats are not
really in a mood to help them. They are petty
and vengeful. They don't look at this as though they
need to do something to get relief to the voter.
They look at this as how can we make them

(41:56):
look so bad and pinch people so that people feel
the pinch and then we'll be motivated to vote for
Democrats because they think that we're going to do it
differently or somehow better, which do you know they won't.
So the CR they have an increase in spending, they
slowed the rate of growth that they try to mask
off as a cut. And it's just a garbage it's

(42:18):
a garbage cr. I mean, there's nothing good about it.
Thomas Massey's already pretty much said that he's a no
go on it. Uh And so that's one Democrat. And
he's consistent, if you know, for any he's consistent on
everything that he puts up, I will say, but he's
saying that this is a no go for him. So
they're going to have to I don't know what they're
going to do, but I really think that missing the

(42:43):
opportunity to include tax cuts, permanent tax cuts. And I
have my own issues with the no tax on tips
because I'm like, well, what about the bussers, what about
the line cooks, what about you know, all these folks.
This is just servers. I mean I say this as
somebody who worked as a server for years going through
that aside, why Republicans are missing the opportunity to say

(43:06):
Democrats are refusing to provide leave. Why can't they relieve?
Why can't they turn the messaging around on them? Why
do they constantly have to be on defense? This is
what aggravates me so much with Democrats or with Republicans.
They're always on defense, even when they should be on offense.
They are the ones who should be out there right
now saying can you believe that Democrats do not want
to get this? They don't want to have any of

(43:29):
this done. Democrats don't care if their government shuts down.
I mean they don't care. They just think if it
hurts Republicans, and it hurts Republicans, they don't care who
else is hurt in the process. So they're not going
to be relamentable to working with Republicans on any of this.

(43:49):
But why are Republicans not out there messaging this and
weaponizing it themselves. Democrats don't want to give you no
tax on tips. Democrats do not want to make the
twenty seventeen tax cuts. They don't want to make that
I'm permanent. They want you and then run through the
list of again, they want you to fund this stuff
through US eight. I mean, my gosh, they haven't even
gotten some of these departments that they've suspended with an

(44:11):
EO made permanent through congressional action. All they could. I mean,
Democrats can come right in and reconstitute them in twenty
eight if Congress doesn't act. So this is all a
major it's a major issue, and I'm just not I
I don't know. I'm it's a mess. So we're also
and yes we are lawyer by the way of all
of the what is wrong with the internet today, kine?

Speaker 5 (44:35):
I mean, if not knowing right now, of course I
will speculate and wear a tinfoil hat at aliens. X
has been hacked, now Rumble's been hacked?

Speaker 1 (44:44):
Has Rumble been hacked?

Speaker 5 (44:45):
Well, I don't know if it's been hacked, but it
did crash, and just like X crashed, so I don't
know what the explanation is for that. It seems odd
that everything else seems to be up and running and
without interruption, but X and Rumble.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
Are somehow out interesting. Again, the Internet is garbage place.
I'm just saying, yes, we can't because usually we stream
on there and we have the chat. They've had some
difficulties in Rumble today. But how I mean you don't
think it's something like that. I mean, we did see
a lot of people going after Tesla showrooms over the weekend.

Speaker 5 (45:18):
I mean, that's the only reason why I think it.
I mean, sure it could be just tech I mean functions,
but or it could not be or it could not be.

Speaker 1 (45:29):
Yeah, the have you guys heard about this situation? We
pull this story up while we have it. Have you
guys heard about the story regarding the Harry Potter casting.
You guys heard about all those So I guess they

(45:51):
are redoing. I mean, I don't know why they've got
to redo this series or do anything like this, but
they're they're shooting this series. This is from Dene Hollywood.
And then they have a thing with Forbes also right
up over at Forbes, and I'll I think you have
some of this may have guns your prep last week.
So essentially so it's an HBO series. It's the HBO's

(46:17):
upcoming Harry Potter series, and it features younger versions of
I guess, like Harry Potter's parents and Snape and all
of this other stuff, right, and it gets into the
background of all of this. There's a lot of discussion

(46:39):
as to the casting because they're saying that the casting
is basically DEI and now one of the headlines, for instance,
this is GB and they said Harry Potter fans fume
at what they're calling blackwashing as HBO's closing in on

(46:59):
an actor to play Snape. They're saying it's horrible casting.
And this is because I guess John Lithgo is playing Dumbledore,
which if that's true, that's a horrific casting. I liked
I not look I like him, but not as that character.
So apparently Snape is being played by a black actor. Now,

(47:22):
I don't think in any you know, realm where you
don't talk about the physical attributes of a character and
that doesn't play into the character, I don't think it's important.
But with this, it's it seems odd to me. The
actor his name is Papa as to do. He's been

(47:45):
cast as Suffers Snape in this series. He was in
Gangs of London. He's been in a couple of things
as well. I don't know why that they would change
the I mean again, it's like casting a blonde, blue
eyed person is a Samurai. You know. It's like, if
you're gonna it's like, imagine you do. Imagine you do

(48:07):
a real life casting of say Samurai champblue, and you
have like all blonde, blue eyed, white people that you
have cast as the characters. It's just weird, you know
what I mean. It's weird. It's like it's like, uh,
I don't understand the purpose of it when you change

(48:30):
the character that much. And by the way, the guy
that they have that they've cast, he's kind of a
cool looking dude. Snape is not a cool looking dude.
Snape has been described as a pale, sallow, greasy haired,
you know, blonde, black, stringy hair, pale eyed, pale, pale, pale,

(48:50):
sickly almost. I mean, he's he's characterized as a weak
goth for the lack of a better way to put it.
And they cast this fit looking black actor as Snape
and I'm sorry, but it's not working. It is not
working other than the fact that the character is very
explicitly described in the series as not black. But the

(49:13):
guy doesn't look like a dork. It's not gonna work
for me. You know that they said should have played it,
and I agree with this casting proposal is Adam Driver.
Adam Driver would have been a great Snape. He would
have been a really good Snape. I am I wrong.

(49:34):
I mean, can you see this guy? You see this actor.
He looks too cool and he's again Snape is a pale, sickly, sallow,
blonde or black, stringy or blue eyed dude.

Speaker 5 (49:49):
Apparently he got better.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
And he got fit, because he's described as none of
those things and the book, So I don't the whole
thing is weird. I just don't. I don't. I the
casting is dumb. This is just bad casting. So they said,
apparently it's gonna get worse because the casting decisions just
get you know, they say they cast this guy, and
now everyone's saying the backlash is racist, which I think

(50:14):
is lazy. It's super super lazy. And I don't know,
I I I I don't know. I don't think that
that's gonna work. It's like again, it's like casting oh,
I don't know, Kristin Chenow with as Mulan, right exactly.

(50:37):
It's like it's like actually casting Kristin Chenow with as Mulan.
It makes the same amount of sense, you know what
I mean. It's just dumb. It's like, you know, hiring
I'm trying to think, who's the guy who plays Thorp
Chris Hemsworth and having him play black panther? You see
what I'm saying. It doesn't make any sense. Would you

(50:58):
have Chris Emsworth a black panther leader of Wakanda? Would you?
You know you wouldn't. So why is this casting choice? Okay,
at some point the character description does matter, and do
you know why it matters with this case? Because the
whole Death Eater lore is kind of I mean, it
intimates that it's Nazisque. I mean it intimates they use

(51:21):
words like mud bloods and they talk about it. It's
like very nineteen thirties the kind of stuff. Very much.
So you rob it of that, that that dark storyline
that fear by ignoring the character's background, physical description. It
was for a point our friends over at Celtech great

(51:43):
Florida company, although they have now a Wyoming facility too
that they've opened, and I think I'm pretty sure that
this was one of the first rollouts of their new
expansion facility. And it's the awesome PR fifty seven rotary
barrel chambered in five to seven. Now I have not

(52:04):
fired this, but I have handled it quite a bit
when I saw it all at Shatsha. It is so
light I thought I was gonna throw it through the
ceiling when I picked it up. I don't know why.
Forty percent lighter than the next lightest five seven, so
I have five sevens. There's none that I could actually
realistically with my frame carry I could carry this. It's
that thin and it's that light. Now they achieve this
in two different ways. They have the innovative rotary barrel

(52:26):
that makes it helps to make it the lightest five
seven on the market. But they also have eliminated magazines,
so it has a very unique top loading design and
it replaces the traditional mags with the stripper clips, so
you have a slimmer carry profile, twenty plus one capacity
and all the people that don't know anything about guns
when they say clips instead of magazines, you know they'll
actually be accurate by accident for one. So there you

(52:48):
have that. It's actually great for everyday carry for everyone.
It's engineered for simplicity and simple reliability, and the MSRP
makes it uber affordable at only three ninety nine, It's
the first of its kind. Caltech PR fifty seven rotary

It's time for Dana's quick five.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
Canada has a new prime minister. They voted for former
Central Bank Governor of Canada and big time Trump critic
Mark Kearney Fitting to be the next prime minister. He
overwhelmingly won the vote to become the Liberal Party's next leader.
Leader Trudeaus, you know, announced his resignation in January, so
that's not super much of a surprise. Ultra Bazarre one

(53:41):
leg of jeans are selling out online. Fashionistas are divided
over the four hundred and forty dollars pair of pants.
It's the stupidest thing I've ever seen. It's not a
pair of one leg is a short one leg is
a long gene And I can't believe that people are
actually selling them. But the crazier thing is that people
are going to wear them. Yeah, we got a lot
more on the way with us. What does living better

(54:01):
mean to you? Is it more money, a bigger house?
Nothing about this? What about how you feel physically? Every day?
Life is so much better when you feel good. When
you wake up feeling great, you can do more of
the things that you love and you're ready to take

Speaker 1 (55:15):
So what I think you're watching? Do we have this
on the monitor for the folks?

Speaker 7 (55:20):
What?

Speaker 1 (55:21):
What what we're watching? Is this removal I guess of
the Black Lives Matter plaza. So it wasn't just like
a crosslock. It was looks like it was a whole
city block. Was it more than that? Because they had
the street signs made up as you could see from
the video, So it said the black it said Black

(55:41):
Lives Matter on the street sign, and then it had this.
I guess it's it looks like a whole city block.
I thought it was. Maybe it might be bigger, might
be bigger. Yeah, I think that looks bigger. I think
it's probably a couple of blocks where in the road
they had painted out in the actual road black Lives Matter,

(56:03):
and so DC they started dismantling this. It's known as
Check's notes Black Lives Matter plaza. It's near the White House,
so there was after the I think it's what been
there for four and a half years, and now apparently

(56:23):
it's being described as Mayor Muriel Bowser's decision to remove it.
I guess to ease political tensions. How much did it
cost to put all this in here? Because the street sign?
I didn't know about the street sign, so that cost.
Do you think that Black Lives Matter paid to have
that street sign made?

Speaker 5 (56:43):
I think taxpayers paid for me.

Speaker 1 (56:44):
Do you think that Black Lives Matter paid to write
black Lives Matter on the streets. Do you think that
now Black Lives Matter is paying to have this removed? No,
so they just pocketed the money bought all these mansions,
and then that's you.

Speaker 5 (56:58):
Know, you're stuck with the bill.

Speaker 1 (57:01):
That's just was there somewhere you could that taxpayers can
send an invoice. So they cleared out the homeless encampments
done there too. But then they're taking this. It's not
a mural, it's just I don't know what it is.
But the DC mayor apparently that she okayed the removal
to east tensions with the administration. Uh, and I don't

(57:23):
know what if funding had anything to do with it.
I don't know how you continue to fund this. But uh,
they said that it's just north of the White House
where they're taking taking the paint off. So they said,
I don't know what they're gonna I guess it's just
gonna be a regular street. Now. Is it still gonna
be called Black Lives Matter?

Speaker 9 (57:40):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (57:40):
Plaza? Are they renaming that as well?

Speaker 5 (57:43):
That's a good question.

Speaker 1 (57:44):
I take it all, even the street. What was it
before Black Lives Matter? Plaza? Regular street name?

Speaker 5 (57:51):
Yeah, I think it was.

Speaker 1 (57:53):
Trump had threatened to withhold DC's funding if they didn't
stop this nonsense, and so now they're stopping the nonsense.
So nature is healing. You could say, nature is healing there,
it is right there. Yeah. Yeah. Someone sent this to me,
this media eye piece. The headline is this is disgusting
conservative shred UFC's Dana White for warm welcome of accused

(58:17):
traffickers the Taters to Vegas event. I don't even like
saying that. I was blissfully unaware of these people. For
the longest time, I didn't know who they were, and
then all of a sudden I saw some of the
grifting kind of people on the right pushing them, and
there is that mentality on the rights is one of
the reasons why I hate the Internet. I hate the
idea of influencer. I hate that term, and I think

(58:40):
that there's a difference between an influencer and then just
people who are who are in commentary or editorial writers,
because it feels like influencers are whatever is the trendiest.
They push whatever's the trendiest, and they will only it's
like the trendiest talking points, the trendiest talks, the trendiest,

(59:02):
and if you're out there trying to push the limits
of discussion and the depth of discussion, you really don't
engage a lot in like the forever twenty one type
of instant gratification, throwaway thought right. And I think for

(59:23):
a lot of us, I mean, I don't think that
that fleeting influence lasts. I think that, you know, serious
commentary is what lasts. So I don't know. I always
nothing makes me hate someone more than if they mistake
me for an influencer. I'm like, no, it's not even
remotely the same. And I know a lot of people
a broadcasting that are like that, And I think with

(59:46):
a lot of this stuff, and I'm starting to see
more of it on the right. I see it on
the left because it's kind of where it originated, right,
Like just this vapidness, this shallow attempt to be like
a pseudo intellectual or just outright laziness when it comes
to thought, and people just take something that someone else
has and they repackage it and they repost it, and
it just goes on and on and on. And you

(01:00:08):
can say it's amplification, and it is, but it also
is misdirection and misrepresentation just as much. And so I
think that plays into this the story. So I saw,
and I saw it because everybody's talking about it. The Taters,
I don't even like saying their name. It's like I
don't want to say a candy man's name in the

(01:00:29):
mirror three times in the bathroom, you know, because they'll
pop up. I saw that movie. Or if you say
Bloody Mary, and when I was a kid, it was
you got to say bloody Marry in the bathroom, Yeah,
three times and a dark bathroom in front of a
mirror in the dark, and you know she'll appear. So
it's like, I really don't want to say the Taters'
names because they're two brothers, and I know that there's

(01:00:51):
apparently a huge there's a ton of accusations against them,
apparently as media I reported, and a million other or
there's like this ongoing sex trafficking rape accusation case. The
charges in Romania haven't been dismissed. Apparently it's still being investigated.
They were allowed to come to the United States for
just like a little bit and then they went back

(01:01:14):
to Romania. But that's the whole situation where Florida said
they're not welcoming Florida. They're accused of a lot of things.
And the reason that they're accused of a lot of
things is because they're on video literally talking about all
of it. You can't say that you're innocent of certain
things when you're on video talking about them yourself. No

(01:01:35):
one made you do that. But anyway, from I mean
what's been reported all there's they're facing like a lot
of these accusations, and they got this ongoing case not
just in Romania but in the UK. And then one
of the victims apparently I guess it's a trafficking victim
that came forward who was like fifteen at the time,
and there's video of him whipping one of the taters,

(01:01:57):
whipping this girl with a belt or something thing. A
lot of it's blurred out, so he gets kind of
hard to telp it, like like whipping somebody on there,
I have audio. The reason I bring this up is
because what in the hell, conservatives, what is happening on
the right that you lift up people like this? I mean,
this guy talks about banging dudes. How is that? How

(01:02:19):
are you upholding someone who is defending literally sodomy like
banging a dude backside? How are you defending that as
some sort of representation for conservatism or as like an
example on the right. Don't hey, if you're cringing right now,
I did too. I had to look at this stuff,
not like him doing it, but him talking about it.
Play it for me, go back, just give me that

(01:02:40):
little video right out there, because I think that people
need to be aware of what is being promoted as
the right type of masculinity on the right. Watch this. Sorry,
ignore the construction.

Speaker 10 (01:02:52):
I'm rebuilding my mansion.

Speaker 11 (01:02:54):
We'll see when it's doll do an episode of Career.

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
Just yeah, he's on his whole of his brutaliss it
looks like some kind of building. Anyway, that's all gonna
be lit up in the gatty logos.

Speaker 5 (01:03:06):
People broke boys don't know.

Speaker 10 (01:03:08):
Listen. I recently posted a question.

Speaker 1 (01:03:10):
On Twitter, ask we have to show you the screen.

Speaker 11 (01:03:12):
Would you rather have sex with a transsexual which is
a legitimate ten, or a woman, which is a legitimate one.
And everyone's sitting there clicking woman, woman, woman, woman because
they think they're going to be gay if they do
anything else, but they're not actually thinking about the question.

Speaker 1 (01:03:24):
I am so smart.

Speaker 11 (01:03:26):
I operate on so many levels higher than the average man.

Speaker 5 (01:03:30):
You people are not thinking about the question.

Speaker 11 (01:03:33):
When I say a one and a ten, I mean
Megan Fox with a that's the tranny or Hulk Hogan
with a.

Speaker 10 (01:03:44):
That's the girl.

Speaker 1 (01:03:45):
So he's like to send banging Megan, folks, and I'm liking,
what in the world is happening with you?

Speaker 5 (01:03:53):
And he lands false choice. He lands on the idea
of being with the Megan Fox looking Yeah, he.

Speaker 1 (01:03:59):
Wants to bang the dude. This is what he's talking about,
And is it what is a copyright issue? Is that
what it is?

Speaker 5 (01:04:05):
Well, at the time that we were getting all this together,
X was down.

Speaker 1 (01:04:08):
Okay, we couldn't actually down video, so but there's the
video that's up there. So I don't know how these
dudes are being elevated as some sort of representation of
healthy masculinity. First and foremost, there's nothing healthy or masculine
about it from all everything that's been reported. They make
their money off of like pimping out women on only

(01:04:30):
is it only fans or like sex cams? It's like
sex cam girls, And that's what a lot of the
accusations against them are surround trafficking, and there are apparently
a lot of people have come forward and the case
apparently widened in Romania and it's ongoing in the UK.
So it's not something that's like, you know, this is
not like the New York Time or the New York

(01:04:53):
Law fair against Trump, right, like Trump didn't actually do anything.
There's Trump isn't even on video bragging about doing stuff.
I mean so, but I've seen people lift these guys up,
and I just don't get it. There's so much about it,
a that's cringe. It's welfare. If you're making money off
of pimping out women, you're an entitled welfare queen. You

(01:05:15):
just have a penis. That's it. It doesn't make you
any less of a welfare queen. You're still a welfare
queen because you're living off of the work of someone else.
Like you're not even going out there earning your own money.
And I don't know why. You know, someone on the
right have taken to lifting up single dudes who have
no family, who have no commitments from any women who

(01:05:37):
talk about women like this, And I think they're Muslims too,
aren't they so okay? Hi Sharia. I don't even know
what what if these people are thinking. I've seen a
lot of people platform them and do interviews, and then
when they're criticized for it, they whine about free speech.
It has nothing to do with free speech. You have
free speech, and then everyone else also has free speech

(01:05:57):
to criticize how you use yours. So ghetto. Uh, But
these people, these like Tater Bros. Are not anything to
be looked up to. It's glorified welfare. You're making money
off of other women having sex, that's that. And it's
a it's like welfare. It's it's you're sponging off of

(01:06:17):
these women, and you're trying to present it as being
a masculine thing, and it's not a part of being
masculine and part of being a real man is the
code of chivalry. And to just dumb it down, you know,
chivalry means you're a badass, but you choose not to be.
You know, you can go out and you can war

(01:06:38):
in the field, but then you can come back and
you can sit next to a lady and have a
polite meal, you know, in the king's court. I mean,
that's kind of what you know, to put it in
layman's terms, that's sort of, you know, the the chivalry.
I don't see any of that here. I don't see
any kind of you know, uh, courteousness or any And
people are are acting like, oh, well, this is the

(01:07:00):
answer to all the accusations of toxic masculinity, and they
I don't see any I don't I don't see any daylight.
And how they treat any female. By the way, it's
I understand toxic masculinity. I'm married to a man, I'm
raising young men. I get it. I grew up probably

(01:07:21):
disliking feminism more than the people talking about how much
they look dislike feminism today. I also know that there's
first wave second wave, third wave and for fourth wave
first wave. Fine, women can vote, they can you know,
be able to actually inherit the property that they help
build up with their families so they're not left destitute
of widowed. I get it. But then the whole abortion

(01:07:42):
on demand and now men or women. You know, it's
kind of jumped the shark targeting men and acting like
real masculinity as toxic. Hopefully conservatives haven't forgotten what real
masculinity looks like, because it's not this. It's not pimping
out women and bragging about the entire the like trying
to or ify welfare off of sex. It's none of

(01:08:03):
those things. It's it's it's not rejecting the Christian principles
on which the nation was founded. It's not that they
went out to I guess Vegas and they were caught
shaking hands. They were photographed shaking hands with Dana White,
which I think is a really bad look for UFC,
by the way, and for for I don't think anybody
needs to be prayed around with these fools. I mean,

(01:08:23):
it's just cringe. It's almost like if you it's like
the Waynes Brothers, if they did a whole skit mocking
a subset of one of want to be heard asses.
They would dress up like this and they would do this.
It feels almost like we're getting punked in a way.
But there are some people that are so burnt out
from the accusations of toxic masculinity that I guess they

(01:08:43):
find this empowering, which I don't find it empowering, and
I find it debasing you. It's just debasement. The I
to push back against toxic masculinity isn't to embrace progressive principles.
I don't believe in toxic masculinity. There's no more toxicity
and being masculine there than there is toxicity and being feminine.

(01:09:06):
I don't believe in the patriarchy anymore than I believe
in the matriarchy, although I could say that the matriarchy
is probably a little bit more established. But this whole
pushing of them as though this is some sort of
like representation of masculinity in the sphere of conservatism or

(01:09:26):
on the right is so misguiding, and it's it's such
a debasement and it's an insult to men. Men are
so much better than these boys. Men are so much
better than this and they have. There are so many
better examples of strong, actual men than this. So I

(01:09:47):
get it that people want clicks, and I get it
that they want traffic, and I get it that in
this oversaturated world of whatever that you know, people are
trying to carve out a niche for themselves, but engaging
in this like clickbait debasement is not the way to
do it. We'll have more on it, but I just
I saw that piece Out'm like, oh boy, I like

(01:10:07):
said one thing about it, but it's still it's cringe,
And I just we haven't talked a lot about it.
It's like this cultural thing that's happening on the right
right now. But I think it's maybe the time that
we do start talking about it because I just see
some horrible representations of what some people think masculinity looks like,
and that's not what masculinity is. There are so many
awesome dudes out there who deserve to be like recognized

(01:10:30):
and elevated and talked about and used as like the
measure of what it is to be a man, and
not dudes these dudes who I mean, get a shirt
that fits and you know, stop like sponging off of
like women's sex work. I just it's like welfare. We
got a lot more on the way as we move

Speaker 5 (01:12:09):
It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida.

Speaker 1 (01:12:17):
Man, a Florida woman was attacked, well, she attacked a
man with a Pringles can, say deputies, that sounds like
a song. Oh my goodness is in Florida, WFLA a woman,
Florida woman was accused of attacking a man with a
Canna Pringles Orange County Sheriff's Office. They got called at
the seven eleven for a reported fight and a man

(01:12:38):
told deputies that Shanika seart All hit him in the
eyes with a Pringle's chip can and then she ran off.
So they said he had a significant cut on his
right eyebrow and it was he was actually bleeding. They
did find her. She did have a Pringles can in
her possession, and she was arrested and charged with aggravated battery.
So no Hitty with Pringles, don't do that. Yeah, I'm

(01:13:00):
I'm sure it was probably confidence. It's probably taken into evidence.
I mean, if they do all that, you know, I
don't know a Florida woman murdered her roommate and then
poort mountain do all of ourself to prevent the police
from getting DNA. That doesn't work that way. They did
also find a bloody knife and the cell phones and
all this other stuff. So yeah, that Florida woman's probably
gonna spend decades in prison, and she wasn't able to
actually hide any of the evidence either. Lame. All right,

Speaker 6 (01:14:43):
This is why so many people are so mad about it,
because they're just taking opportunity away from kids. It on
have it so billionaires kids a billionaires say have it?
They go to private schools. Everyone else ninety percent go
to public schools. Don't take away there opportunity.

Speaker 10 (01:15:01):
So let's stay on the fact.

Speaker 1 (01:15:02):
Sorry, no, I'm really angry about this. Because I'm really angry.

Speaker 6 (01:15:06):
I taught kids in Clara Barton High School in Brooklyn,
New York.

Speaker 1 (01:15:11):
Randy Winegarten is super mad because something's being discussed that
would actually limit her power and her influence, and that
has to do with the education plan from the administration,
i e. Having to all go back to the States
instead of being consolidated and centralized in Washington, d C.

(01:15:33):
Welcome back to the program. We're at the top of
this third hour. Daniel want to share with you. She
was super This woman shut down. She was part of
the reason that school shut down for like almost two
years because Randy Winegarten pushed for it. So spare me.
I don't believe that this woman at all cares. I
think it's just about preserving her power and access to power.

(01:15:58):
That's it. I don't think it's anything else. I don't
think it's anything else, because you can't sit here and
say that what she has pushed for these have turned
out to be successful for kids, or that it has
turned into a super successful means of education. I mean this,
she's part of everything that's wrong with education right now,
all four having the states handle it, we absolutely do

(01:16:20):
not need to consolidate it out in DC. That's just
so asinine to me. There's no authority for the federal
government to do any of what it's doing as it
pertains to education. And if people feel so strongly about it,
then instead of demanding that everyone else pay, you pay more, right,
I mean, I got major problems with it. I have
major problems with an educational system that is more about

(01:16:43):
political propaganda than actual education, just and especially what they've
been you know, you've seen these fights. I mean, good grief.
We had the fight with our public school board here
and the town in which I live. We were the
first one to go to the ballot box, and just
to watch the way that the system tried to weaponize

(01:17:05):
everything against innocent parents was truly stunning. So after all
of that, after witnessing all of that and hearing what
my friends have gone through in other parts of the
United States. No, and then looking at test scores, looking
at everything that happened over Lockdown, that she encouraged, that
she pushed for, that she demanded. Hell No said joke.

(01:17:25):
This isn't about education. It's about propagandaizine. That's all it's about.
Has nothing to do with education. So she's angry. She
acts like it's costing people opportunities if you let parents
have more direct access in the state. All I hear
is that this old broad's out there saying that she
apparently knows more about your children than you do, and
that she has more of authority to influence them than

(01:17:47):
you do. It's not how it works. So I'm glad
to see that the administration is doing something about it again,
though executive orders only matter until he's out of office
and then they're irrelevant. People know those, right. It's why
it's so incredibly important to get these congressional members on
the same page. Mike Johnson has dramatically split from Doge

(01:18:10):
come the reports over this weekend. He was on TV
on Friday and he was saying that the efficiency driven
approach was necessary to trim government excess. And then critics
that were saying that the cuts are abrupt and as

(01:18:30):
a result, they're having a lot of a major negative
impact on a lot of things, and they were I
think they were also worried about how some of the
austerity was going to affect them. That's what it sounds
like at the ballot box. So he was on He
was saying that it's going to be corrected. Was the

(01:18:51):
phrase that he used, somewhat like a shift from the
musk Doge approach. He was saying that the talking about
abrupt cuts, people were saying it's having an effect on
critical federal programs and it's costing dedicated workers their jobs.
So what the federal sector is the only place where
dedicated workers are not allowed to lose their jobs. Private

(01:19:14):
sector it's okay, Federal it's not. I It may sound callous,
and if someone I guess wants to have a weak
constitution and be offended over my tone on it, then
they're free to do that, just as I'm I'm free
to disregard it. But if only these people had been

(01:19:35):
as loud when the federal government was shutting down private
sector of businesses for COVID, locking people out of their workplaces,
enacting economic eminent domain and making it to where people
could earn a living, and arresting those who tried. And

(01:19:56):
that actually did happen. I know people personally who were
act for trying to simply work, Shelley Luther being the first,
and now she's an elected office as a result. But
the must says he's been efficient. Johnson is saying, Okay, well, yeah,
maybe it was too fast. I just I don't he

(01:20:18):
seems soft on it. He said it's going to be corrected.
I don't know what that means, but to me, it
was kind of a signal for I just don't think
that they have the spine to do what's needed. I mean,
I like this stuff that that Potus is coming out with,
and I like the eos, but none of that's going

(01:20:40):
to matter when he's out of office in twenty twenty eight,
because it's all going to go away. Democrats are going
to get rid of it. They're going to get rid
of it. They're going to with an EO undo all
of his eos and then have their own implemented, like
Biden did with a border when he got into office
back in twenty twenty, so I don't know. I mean

(01:21:01):
Johnson to me was signaling some separation there. Did you
read that the same way, King, because that's how I
got it. Johnson was trying to make it look like okay, well,
he's like way more I don't know. I don't want
to say energetic. That's not the right word about it
than Johnson was. And he was suggesting too, like sensitive sectors,

(01:21:22):
there might be a concession where people are rehired. I
think this is so you're undermining. Then in your telegraphing
that you're undermining what DOJE is doing? What is the
point of any of this? My gosh, can't you people
get a damn spine. Grow a spine for once in
your ever loving lives. Republicans, stop being pathetic, grow a spine.

(01:21:44):
If they don't get this, If they don't make these
cuts now before filing for midterm elections starts, guys, they're
never going to make them. The coalition will be gone
and you can say hello to Gavin Newsom for president
in twenty twenty eight, because they are going to rehabilitate him.
It'll be him, Mariandy Basher, maybe Wes Moore, but it'll
probably be their Newsomb or Basher or both. Shapiro perhaps,

(01:22:08):
but there's too many people on the left that have
a problem with him because he's Jewish, So I don't know.
It'll be either Newsomber or Bashar, and that's what and
that that will happen, and it'll happen just the way,
just like that. It's not you know, it's not hidden knowledge.
So to see Johnson splitting like this was incredibly unfortunate.
Thomas Massey says he's still a no on this continuing

(01:22:29):
resolution that Republicans are trying to pass. That's all that's
going to do is kick the budget ball down the
down the path until September thirtieth, So you're going to
continue Joe Biden's economic framework. You're basically carrying on the
fourth fiscal or the fifth fiscal year of the Biden administration.
That's exactly what they're doing. It's just more Biden administration stuff.

(01:22:50):
They're they're continuing it because they think that's easier than
allowing the government to shut down. Democrats would love for
the government to shut down because they always use a
shutdown to their advantage, and Republicans are too terrified to
message any other way. And now they've made they've been
made easy in their cowardice because they just let Trump
do all of it. They just let Trump do all

(01:23:10):
the messaging. And they really don't come back. If you've noticed,
there's not really a lot of the lawmakers that come
out and they will say, yes, this is great, what
Potus is doing here. They'll say like red meat platitudes
like always great, yeah Potus. You know, but they you know,
they don't, they don't actually go to bat for these
these reforms. When have you seen for as hard as

(01:23:33):
Trump went in supporting Mike Johnson, have you seen Mike
Johnson going anywhere near as hard and supporting these economic
reforms that Trump wants? Not at all, Not at all.
This is what people need to pay attention to. You've
got these lawmakers out there that give lip service to
what Trump says, and they're like, yeah, Potus, and then
they do these like miles wide inch deep performative like

(01:23:58):
acts of fealty. We're propose two hundred and fifty dollars
bill with your face on it or whatever. They do
these performative acts of fealty, and in the meantime, We're
all like, guys, you see the economic waterfall that's happening
right now, We're almost over the edge. You guys see
this right? I wish Johnson would have gone again as

(01:24:19):
hard for these economic reforms as Trump went for him
to get him a speaker. I mean that to me,
if you want to have a discussion about loyalty, I
think people don't know how to judge it. That is
an example of what you would do to be loyal
to the person who endorsed you in major speakership happen

(01:24:40):
is to not separate from Doge. To not separate. I
read a story where it was saying that Trump was
trying to kind of collar Doge in a way and
trying to pull them back a little bit with some things.

(01:25:01):
And I don't know if he's getting some pressure from
other lawmakers now. To be fair, it was a Daily
Beast piece that first started it. He but his statement
was that he wanted to replace the chainsaw with a scalpel,
and that's apparently what Potus had suggested. He wrote on

(01:25:25):
True Social that he's instructed Doge to use a scalpel
rather than a hatchet to go after the federal workforce.
He said, as secretaries learn about and understand this is
what he wrote on true social quote, they can be
very precise as to who will remain and who will go.
We say the scalpel rather than the hatchet he goes.
The combination of them, Elin Doze and other people will

(01:25:47):
be able to do things at a historic level. So
I don't get the sense that he's like put collaring him,
but scalpel as opposed to hatchet. Democrats are trying to
use the newly unemployed federal workforce, and they're trying to
act like they're trying to misrepresent that as Trump turning
his back on the working man, and now these people

(01:26:09):
are out of work as a result. I'm just trying
to figure out how people thought cutting spending was gonna go.
Everyone loves spending everybody else's money, don't they. Government loves
spending all of our money. I mean, honestly, the federal
workforce is too big. Where how did people think this
was gonna go? Do they think it was gonna be
kittens and sunshine? Do they think it was gonna be easy?

(01:26:33):
What the hell? No, It's gonna suck and some people
will lose their jobs, and that's the unfortunate reality of it,
and people need to start being honest with themselves. If
they can't handle this, can they actually handle living in
a free republic. That's a legitimate question that some people
really need to think about. We love gold. Although the

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

Speaker 1 (01:28:08):
Disney ride. Passengers are dumbfounded after a man jumped from
a log to wander with his son, causing a forty
minute delay. People were very upset. Understandably, it was on
Tiana's By You Adventure in the Magic Kingdom. The guy
jumped out and decided to wander around with this kid.
The ride was paused for ten minutes, and then it

(01:28:28):
was delayed further, and they said that they it was
all held up for thirty to forty minutes because they
got out and were wandering around and looking at stuff.
You're not supposed to do that. You're supposed to stay in.
You absolute moron. This is also why I don't do
amusement parks. I don't like going and standing in line
and having to be herded like cattle for what a

(01:28:48):
ride that? You know, if you want a real ride,
just saying go like water rafting or something. I don't know.
A let's see. Oh no, I'm not doing that one.
Oh no, not doing that. I'm gonna I'm gonna go
back because some of these are just no.

Speaker 11 (01:29:04):
Oo.

Speaker 1 (01:29:05):
The Tasmanian Devil. Wait a minute, who whoa, whoa, whoa
woh hold have we gotta go back to this? This
is this is from last hour. We didn't have time.
Tasmanian devil gives a woman who went in to use
the restroom in major surprise. They're actually way haier than
I thought they would be. An Australian woman was awakened
by the center of her dogs growling. She went up,
opened the door for them to go outside, and then
she was going to use the restroom herself. But there

(01:29:27):
was a Tasmanian devil that ran into her bathroom, chased
by the dogs, to take shelter behind the commode, so
she trapped him in there. They call it the devil.
They trapped the devil in there, and they had to
get basically a critter catcher out to come and catch it.
She said that apparently went crazy in there, like it

(01:29:48):
you know, was like just kick things off of the
shelves everything. So they were able to get it out
and I guess rehome it. But still they're very aggressive
little things, you though. Theprecate ret populations are surging as
cities heat up, like probably no greater example of that
than maybe perhaps in New York, but they said. Scientists

(01:30:10):
have published another study that Science Advances is the journal Duh.
As temperatures climb in cities, rap populations grow. No, really,
you mean it's harder if it's colder. Good grief? Why
is that a study that somebody spent money on? Good grief?
And last, but not least, this potus is being pressured

(01:30:34):
to make Puerto Rico independent and save America six hundred
and seventeen billion dollars. That's a lot of money. He's
being lobbied to make it an independent nation. Congressional offices
are in possession of a seven page draft executive order
on how the US could help the island territory transition
to independence and they said that this is I guess

(01:30:56):
it's something that's being widely debated within the cabinet, but
you know, we'll see how this goes. Apparently was drawn
up by Congressional Office and leaders of the Puerto Rican
secessionist efforts, not the White House stick with us. Stephen
Yates is going to be joining us. Coming up at
the bottom of this hour. Next the folks who will
bring you the program. It is our friends over at
super Beats. The super Beats Choose, brought to you by

(01:31:19):
the makers of the Superbats Hard Choose, a great product
and of course the only Beat product that I will
recommend or take myself. They also have their new Superberine.
It supports healthy metabolism and blood sugar levels. It's one
easy to take capsule a day. It is a higher
absorption so the clinically researched bereine that they have burberine
that they have in here actually is more ten times

(01:31:45):
higher at ten times higher absorption rate than standard burberine.
And that higher absorption means that you're getting healthy metabolism
and healthy blood sugar benefits in just one capsule and
that's all you get to take every day. There's new
GI distress. There's if you're worried about burberin causing GI distress.
The Superberine's unique formula with the grape seed extract actually

(01:32:08):
improves tolerability. And now you could get both the new
Superberine and the number one best selling Superbeat's Heart shoes
at Sam's Club. Just visit SAMs Club. That's where you
can get the super Beats Heart shoes for heart health
support and the Superboerine for healthy metabolism and blood sugar support.

Speaker 7 (01:32:31):
Keep your finger on the pulse with a Dana Show
podcast delivering timely news with insightful analysis whenever you want,
straight to you on YouTube, Apple or wherever you get
your podcasts.

Speaker 1 (01:32:44):
Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash here with you.
You're at the bottom of this third hour. I was
looking at this crazy story of these US Army soldiers
who were indicted for selling secrets to China. Their name
James Lee Tien, Jean Joo, and were you Duan were

(01:33:05):
all indicted for selling secrets to China. Kane. If only
there had been some signs.

Speaker 4 (01:33:15):
That this.

Speaker 1 (01:33:18):
Was an issue, If only there had been some signs
that these individuals maybe perhaps because isn't this isn't the
first suspicion. I think we have him joining us if
I can see him on a monitor joining us right now,
Stephen Yates at Yates Comms on x he joins us

(01:33:39):
via Skype, and as you know, he's been in not
one but two different administrations, and he is a senior
research fellow at the Heritage Foundation. I know you're no
one's more surprised by this than you are, my friend,
these three individuals indicted for selling secrets. I mean, I
would have never have guessed at all.

Speaker 10 (01:34:00):
Thoughts Well, it is sad.

Speaker 12 (01:34:03):
Now. On the one hand, I think that there's a
much greater threat to our national security, homeland security by
all of the advanced cyber attacks that Chinese entities engage in,
whether it's Salt Typhoon and other kinds of massive efforts
that go after our infrastructure and big data on Americans

(01:34:24):
and all that.

Speaker 10 (01:34:25):
But good old fashioned spookcraft.

Speaker 12 (01:34:28):
Is going on, and it's the Chinese Communist Party is
the one that's ethnically profiling people, going out there and
making clear that if you're of what they say their
ethnicity is that you owe something to their mothership and
should compromise the country in which you may have achieved citizenship.

(01:34:49):
But also, Dana, I would just say there's a systemic
way that we could improve in this effort, and that's
to stop wasting billions and billions of dollars on lengthy
government applications for law abiding of citizens when they go
through and have these background checks for government jobs. But
make very clear when you are in a position of responsibility,

(01:35:10):
you will be surveilled. It makes clear that you are
free in your ordinary life, but if you have the
privilege of special access in government, you're going to be followed,
You're going to be watched. And it's to keep America
safe and keep America's secrets safe, because that's where the
security should be. But we've done it backwards for the
last half century, and we've one hundred percent record of

(01:35:30):
missing things exactly like this until the stuff's already sold.

Speaker 1 (01:35:34):
You make a really good point. I know one of
your colleagues at Heritage said, there, we're over, and I'm
looking at my notes here. Over twelve hundred cases, for instance,
of intellectual property theft lawsuits brought by US companies against
Chinese entities two hundred and twenty four reported instances of
Chinese espionage directed right towards the United States sixty nine
percent after Jesion Pain assumed office in twenty thirteen, thirty

(01:35:57):
percent involved the theft of military technology. That's insane, that's
I mean, that's definitely the actions of a nation that
might think that it was in a Cold War with you.

Speaker 12 (01:36:10):
For sure, absolutely, and my friends at the Heritage Foundation
have put out a long term report saying that we
are in a second Cold War.

Speaker 10 (01:36:19):
People don't like to talk about it that way.

Speaker 12 (01:36:21):
Understand, they don't want to take on those kinds of
big commitments. But really my point of view is exactly
as you were intimating. When people act this way towards
our country, they have in fact declared this on us,
and our only choice is whether and how we're going
to respond. And so I think it's absolutely the case
that we have this massive scale attack on us already,

(01:36:44):
and this event, it's all hands on deck for the
Chinese Communist Party, and in many cases they don't even
have to pay people. They're just manipulating them into doing
stuff against the United States.

Speaker 10 (01:36:56):
And so I think it's a huge challenge for US, but.

Speaker 12 (01:36:59):
We've got to be out to it, and hopefully the
new administration is serious about it, because we shouldn't forget
the last administration said it was the weather.

Speaker 10 (01:37:06):
That was going to be the greatest threat to our
national security.

Speaker 1 (01:37:09):
That's the greatest that's the greatest geopolitical threat is the weather.
And then don't forget white supremacists, you know, roving bands
of white supremacists all throughout the country. Talking with their
friend Stephen Yates. Now I hear about all these lawsuits
that are brought by US companies against Chinese entities for
theft of IP. But whatever happens to those like, nothing
ever happens to those suits, I mean, unless I'm missing
it or they settle, you know, amicably, quietly.

Speaker 12 (01:37:31):
Well, this is a massive principal challenge that the Trump
administration is grappling with right now. And there's everything on IP,
but there's also lawsuits, say for companies that are known
and proven to have manufactured the fentanyl that's killed Americans,
that there are are cases with judgments, and so we

(01:37:55):
have COVID that has gone through and now there's a
massive judgment against the governo China and entities in China
about COVID, and the huge question is how do you
get that money? And one answer is if you have
tariff money, are there ways that we can repurpose that
to help those who have been victim or increase resources

(01:38:17):
to combat these threats? In some ways you have to
have laws crafted by Congress to do that. We've gone
at light speed on executive orders. Congress is not yet
caught up to light speed on a lot of this stuff.
But that's kind of where this argument needs to go.
There's a systemic way to deal with it, at least
to start, and we're not there yet.

Speaker 1 (01:38:37):
Speaking of lawsuits, Missouri came out won a twenty four
billion dollar judgment against China in one of those COVID lawsuits.
This was first brought on by former AG now Senator
Eric Schmidt now current AG Andrew Bailey continued it, that's huge.
So it was a federal judge that ruled in favor
of this. But now what happens, China wouldn' show up

(01:38:57):
in court. They're not. I mean, I guess you can
say that as you were talking about the tariffs can
pay for the twenty four they're still going to do this.
There's no deterrence to them at although for them right.

Speaker 12 (01:39:07):
Now, there's no deterrence until there is a structural change
to what we're doing now. I think that part of
the structural change has to be that we're not going
to conduct normal business with countries that allow this kind
of behavior to be done with real measurable material damage
to Americans.

Speaker 10 (01:39:27):
This is not a theoretical debate where we see sort
of grass growing on closed.

Speaker 12 (01:39:32):
Out factories, which is bad that has hurt Middle America
for a generation or two. But this is one where
we can actually count the bodies, and we can count
the economic damage in the billions.

Speaker 10 (01:39:44):
And so I don't know when it's enough. It's been
enough for me for a long time, but I don't
know when it's enough for the rest of America to say, no, Moss.

Speaker 12 (01:39:51):
We're not going to have normal relations with this kind
of a country, and it will cost something, but we're
going to just have to manufacture elsewhere. I just spent
last week in Argentina, where they have rare earths that
we can and should be using. They have satellite contracts
that we should be getting, they have communications contracts that
we should be fighting for. But it's China down there

(01:40:14):
trying to sell their Huawei technologies, and we've got to
wake up and do some things different in this hemisphere
to then make us less dependent on China.

Speaker 1 (01:40:23):
That's CenTra. We're talking with Steven Yates at Yates Comms
via Scott. That's interesting because I know you were down
there in Argentina, you were talking with malign and Malay's people.
Are they amenable to the United States on this? I mean,
because I realized that we see things through our very
American perspective and not every other country from our values origin.

(01:40:46):
Not every country shares that, so their perspectives are a
little bit skewed from what ours are. Are they at
least open? Are they amenable to realizing at least that
the United States is a way better ally than China
ever could imagine to be.

Speaker 12 (01:41:00):
Yeah, Well, they don't have the same experience we do
in the sense that I mean. They certainly felt COVID
and the overreaction to COVID was very damaging everywhere, and
so down in the Southern Tip it was felt that
way too. But they are not having as many people
killed by fentanyl and other kinds of evils like the

(01:41:20):
United States, and they're not suffering as many cyber attacks
in a comprehensive way than we are. But it's not
because they're not getting attention, and they would like to
make the US their first best partner in almost all things.
There's a major defense opportunities that they've been going for.
They almost were in a position of buying, for God's sake,

(01:41:41):
Chinese fighter jets to work to serve in their military,
and it was only after very intense creative things that
they were able to get F sixteens from somewhere else
to be able to try to bolster their needs. So
in many ways, we need to get in the game,
and that's part of what Doje and the the lethality
arguments that sectra Hegseth is making. We've got to fix

(01:42:04):
our manufacturing supply chain and actually be there for those
that want to be our partners and allies.

Speaker 10 (01:42:10):
And I would just place a premium on our hemisphere.

Speaker 1 (01:42:13):
That's a really good point, if only you know. I
hope that some of these lawmakers have the spine to
do what's required. So far, I am entirely thoroughly unimpressed
by everything that I'm right there at rage mode, like
I'm just the flip the switch. It's just so frustrating
because everything you're saying makes so much sense, and if
we could just do this, and if we could just
be self sufficient with manufacturing, and we just stop wasting

(01:42:36):
so much money on everything else. We're talking with our
friend Stephen Yates. I wanted to ask you before I
let you go, because it okay Taiwan. Every time I
see a headline that says China's escalating, I immediately want
to ask you. But because it's a gradual escalation to
the point where it's like the frog and the proverbial
pot of water boiling pot of water, it feels like

(01:42:57):
they're just very carefully just turning the die bit by
bit by bit by bit up until before we know it,
here's a conflict right on our doorstep. I mean, they've
been trolling Australia. Now the military they're saying that they're
going to tighten the quote unquote noose around Taiwan if
the independence movement escalates. I kind of wanted to get
your thoughts on all of this because I just feel

(01:43:19):
like this particularly is something so incredibly important to watch,
especially now with Canada's new Prime minister and five Eyes
and all of this other I just kind of want
to get your last thoughts on this.

Speaker 10 (01:43:30):
Well.

Speaker 12 (01:43:30):
I lament the developments of the Great White North so far.
They're in their leadership change. They want to go from
tweeted lead to tweedled dumb.

Speaker 1 (01:43:38):
As far as I'm concerned, it seems like a winner.

Speaker 12 (01:43:41):
So I just hope and pray that the Canadian right
can awaken and find a way to work with the
Trump administration and we'll see where we can go from
there in North America.

Speaker 10 (01:43:52):
But the Taiwan situation is concerning to me.

Speaker 12 (01:43:55):
Now.

Speaker 10 (01:43:56):
I'm one that said I've lived with this most of
my life. The threats always in there.

Speaker 12 (01:44:01):
It's not going away because it's easy to destroy, it's
not easy to build things and to do things peacefully
and amicably. And I think the United States again, we've
got to be able to provide to our friends and
allies if they're ready to buy defense articles to increase deterrence.

Speaker 10 (01:44:17):
And the United States has people who like to tell others.

Speaker 12 (01:44:20):
To do more, but then we're late in providing what
they want to buy, and then we'd want to restrict
them from developing things themselves. So we've got to break
that paradigm, and I hope we do it really really quick.
But with Japan, Korea, if they can get their politics
straightened out, Taiwan, the Philippines waking up a little bit.
There is some hope that this durrance can be restored there.

(01:44:42):
But we're in a dangerous couple of years, I would say,
and I hope that the President can start conveying to
China's leader to just knock off this really irresponsible and
offensive rhetoric.

Speaker 10 (01:44:52):
Now will they listen?

Speaker 12 (01:44:54):
Probably not, But they don't like the first round of
tariffs and the second round of tariffs. Think that they're
gonna hate the third and fourth rounds two if they
don't try to change the way they're dealing with the
United States.

Speaker 1 (01:45:06):
Well, put our good friends, Steven Yates at Yates Comms
is where you can find him. He also has his website.
Everything is linked up there and we'll also have it

So it's good that we've got your reason analysis out there.

(01:45:28):
We're grateful for you. I'm so glad that you're traveling

was interesting. I don't know what democrats are going to
do as they try to get their backage together. They're

(01:46:30):
so disorganized. This is I'm when I look at political warfare,
I'm always like, where would I if I were leftist?
Where would I attack the right? And then that's where
the right needs to shore things up. You know, any
weak spot you don't want to make it. You don't
want to give them any kind of opening. And Democrats
are in such disarray that there's no I mean, good grief,

(01:46:52):
I wanted to This is what audio somebody eleven, Alisa
Slotkin was. They asked her about Gavin news some running
at the center on the trans stuff and she has
no idea how to respond to this, no idea what
you better learn because he might be your party leader
coming up. Listen, this is a eleven. Sorry, senator, do
you agree with Governor Newsom?

Speaker 3 (01:47:14):
Well, look, I think you know you'll have to to
talk to mister Newsom and his podcast. And we're all
talking about it now because she's asking what you think controversy?
For me, I mean, I grew up playing three seasons
of sports. In Michigan. Sports is like our religion, right,
it's a I wouldn't be here that I got to
answer the question women's sports. And but for me, it's

(01:47:35):
like let the local community figure this out. Right, in Michigan,
we have a process in place where.

Speaker 1 (01:47:41):
Someone who's born that's not what she asked. She was like, well,
what do you think about his comments? And Slackin did
not want to answer. She's she can't answer because she
doesn't want to give any ammunition to any of Newsom's
camp because if Newsom ends up, you ascending to power.
Slackman doesn't want to be on the outside of that,
so she has no You know, I can't believe someone

(01:48:02):
actually asked her that I hesitated in giving them credit.

Speaker 5 (01:48:07):
I'm not surprised at all. The media sets it up
for a narrative to be delivered. And if you want
to hear the other Democrats over the weekend that said
the exact same thing that.

Speaker 1 (01:48:16):
She said, well it's time for your toy in stupidity.

Speaker 5 (01:48:18):
I think, well we can we can do that. Okay,
let's make this today's stupidito. And here's here, listen to
some of this.

Speaker 9 (01:48:23):
We want to make sure that these decisions are made
by the communities, by the communities, by the schools and sports.

Speaker 5 (01:48:30):
We got to make sure that it's the local community,
even Adam Schiff.

Speaker 1 (01:48:34):
Says, for a young person, and I want those sports
to be fair, I want those sports to be safe,
and I have confidence that local schools and local communities
can make those decisions where.

Speaker 5 (01:48:43):
It is again, it's all about essentially just pivoting it
over to the local community so they don't have to
have a spine on this issue.

Speaker 1 (01:48:52):
And to me, that's stupid Kane, very interesting in the
folks that does it for us. Today again, find us
over at Substack Chapter and I'll be here tomorrow, but
then I will be out the rest of the week
for spring break. Just I'm not doing anything spring break,
you crazy, just spend a time with family. So tomorrow
we'll be our last show of the week and then

(01:49:14):
things to return back to normal after that. So find
us on Subseact Facebook YouTube. I'll be back behind the
mic with you tomorrow
