Top Democrats tell Axios that their party is in its deepest hole in nearly 50 years and they fear things could actually get worse. Meanwhile, several large supposedly MAGA-aligned “influencers” posted almost identical talking points fed to them, convincing you MAHA was out of line for not wanting soda purchases with food stamps.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dana Lashes of surd Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech. It's
his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time for
Florida man. I got to get give a lot of
props to Uber eats drivers and like doord Asher's because
I get real weird doing small talk. And I can't
(00:22):
even imagine going to somebody's house and leaving food there,
because God forbid, what do you got to talk to him?
You know, like what in the world? And then what
if it ends up like this? An Uber eats driver
was attacked by a Florida man over an alcohol delivery.
Of course, stiltona guy. He's facing charges because he attacked
a driver over his alcohol. It was in Lucia County.
Police responded they spoke with a woman who is the
(00:44):
Uber eats driver. She said she got in order to
deliver multiple bottles of alcohol to thirty one year old
Miles Web. She arrived at his home. Her boyfriend, who
accompanies her for safety, remained in the vehicle. The driver
asked Web for his ad that's required. When Web refused,
she told him she'd have to return to this and
then he grabbed her from behind, wrenching her left arm
as she walked away, grabbed the bag containing the alcohol,
(01:05):
dragged her towards the house, pulling a glass bottle out
of the bag. She managed to free her arm. Everything
fell to the ground. The boyfriend rand to defend her.
The guy threatened to hit him with a bottle. Oh
my gosh, it was crazy. Deputies tried to speak with
Webby wouldn't open his door, So he's now charged with
felonies aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, an account of
simple battery. You always have to show your driver's license
(01:26):
for an alcohol delivery. I mean sometimes they make you
do it for root beer. I kid you not. I
had to speak with somebody over Rube and I'm like,
you really want to see my idea over you know,
there's no alcohol in it, right, And they're like, uh, yeah,
we know. Like I get it. He can't be doing
that kind of stuff. Our partners that help make the
program possible friends are friends at Celtech. The PR fifty

back to the program, Dana Lash at your top of
this third hour, we have Senator Marshall Blackburn, who's going
(02:49):
to be coming up later on in the program. I
had to laugh at this article from Axios, the headline
behind the Curtain, DIM's Dark Deep Hull talking about their
popularity rating. It's like the worst they have the lowest
favorability ever ever in the history. I don't even know
(03:13):
how it's lower now than it was after FDR did
in tournament camps. I don't know how it's low. I mean,
were they not measuring the party's approval back then. I
can't imagine it being lower than when they were against
you know, women voting, or when they didn't want slavery
(03:35):
to be criminalized, like I just didn't. You know. No,
it's now the party has its lowest favorability ever, says Axios.
This is bolstered by a couple of new surveys out
including ACN in one I know we hate them. Democrat
Party's favorability drops to a record low. Okay, we got
all that they have, Axios notes, there are no popular
(03:58):
national leaders to help improve it. They have insufficient numbers
to stop most legislation in Congress. Now to that point,
Republicans have insufficient numbers really to get anything done, they say,
durable minority on the Supreme Court, dwindling influence over the
media ecosystem with right leaning podcasters and social media accounts ascendent. Okay,
(04:20):
I got to stop for a moment there. They literally
got the I send this word too much. Today, they
got the government involved to actually suppress free speech on
social media platforms. Yours truly was one of those targeted.
They absolutely did, They absolutely did. They said, young voters
(04:41):
are growing dramatically more conservative. I told you that was
going to happen now. Twenty twenty six. They say it
doesn't look great for them for Senate, it looks better
for them for the House. They said that there are
only three House Republicans in districts former VP Harris one
and twenty four. There's not going to be a Democrat surge,
but they could definitely even it out in the House.
They said that Democrats may suffer another blow in the
(05:05):
twenty thirty census if the current population patterns hold. They
said the party could lose as many as a dozen
seats in the House and electorally. Sorry, I got a
smile on that one because that's I like that. I mean,
who doesn't like that? So they're having a bad time.
You could say they've done numerous comprehensive surveys from numerous
(05:30):
Democrat polsters, and they have what Axio says, captured vividly
and empirically the daunting data. And they add for those
skeptical of polls and sampling size. For instance, David Shore,
who conducted one such survey. His is based on twenty
six million online responses collected over just last year alone,
(05:52):
and they and it is filtered to adjust any redundancies
or oddities of modern polling, is estimating a twenty three
point swing against Democrats amongst immigrants, particularly Hispanic Americans. Democrat
support amongst that community has dropped by over fifty percent.
(06:17):
Told you Natural allies the rise of conservatism amongst young people,
particularly men, and they said that millennials were the most
progressive gen Z. This makes my heart saying gen Z
is about to become the most conservative. I've chill saying this.
Do you know why gen Z is because gen X
(06:40):
is saving the universe? Is why? Because gen X is
raising gen Z. You can't have gen X parents and
be anything. But come on, oh my gosh, it's amazing.
All of us deserve to have that chiseled on our
tombstone as an epitaph, by the way, save the universe.
GENA young people particularly, I think this is something worth
(07:05):
exploring over the months to come, the conservatism of gen Z,
because they're a very interesting generation. They are natural cynics
from my experience just with my own. My kids are
different because my kids what I do and all that,
although we've kept them out of it. That's why you
don't see my kids with a lot of these Republican
(07:26):
youth groups that tour on the country because my position
has always been like I really don't care what anybody
has to say. Less you own property and pay tax,
that's the site. Don't care. So I just I'm like,
now you're not going to go somewhere just because you
share a name. We're not doing that. You got to
earn it. But I do think that this is very interesting.
(07:46):
Rom and Manual of all people has been warning his
party they need a quote emergency meeting of mayors and
governors to rethink the party's perception and priorities and see
what is working in schools, all family pharmacy. Speaking of
big pharma and the government, I am never going to
get over the fact that they tried to actually restrict
medications and therapeutics like ivermectin and hydroxychloric win to you
(08:09):
while they were pushing like I don't ever, no, I
don't know it was it cleaner in a syringe? I
don't know. But All Family Pharmacy. One of the reasons
why I love them is because not only is everything
that they make, all the precursors for everything is all
USA made from start to finish, made in the USA.
All your medications are manufactured right here. But they got
the ivermectin, they got the hydroxychloric, when they got the antibiotics,
(08:30):
they got over two hundred medications, tons of stuff. Also,
this system tried to keep from you. It's simple, it's fast,
it's affordable, no insurance, no problem. They got straightforward pricing.

Quick five. So Anheuser Bush announced that they're ending their
(09:11):
sponsorship of Saint Louis's Pride Fest. Isn't it like the
biggest whatever, one of the big ones. They're not doing
their annual Alphabet Festival Pride Fest. This is after thirty
years of partnership. They said that, I guess it's one
hundred and fifty thousand that they gave to it every year.
I wonder if that's because all the bud light stuff,
or if it's just because people are they're broke. I
(09:32):
don't know. I'm just wondering. Yeah, I'm just I'm like curious.
I find that kind of interesting. Let's see the FDA
approved lab grown blood vessel. They've approved this despite some warnings.
The agency okayd an artificial vessel to restore blood float
in patients, even though they're its own scientists are flagging
the questionable study results and they're saying this is some
(09:53):
potentially fatal ruptures. Yeah, I don't think this is something
that I would that I would do. I don't think so.
A man allegedly robbed a store with a finger gun.
You know, Colorado, Springs. The PD there said they arrested
a dude because he allegedly used a finger gun to
rob a store. They said when they got there, the suspect,
(10:14):
Antonio Taylor, had a finger gun pointed at the clerk
and began to take items. They know it's not going
to fire, right Like, what is that? They were able
to take him into custody. They took his teenage daughter
too and put her in protective care. But now he's
in the pokey. He's got a very he's got his
mugshot all out there ready to wrap very interesting stuff.
And uh, let's see. Oh I can't We're runn oh segways.
(10:36):
They were calling all these scooters. I wonder if one
of mine, if mine is one of the ones that
are getting recalled. Things could be so easy right now
they're going to be made more difficult by our own side.
I mean, this is all like stuff like this. Can
we talk about Big Soda for a moment. Jeez, I
can't even believe this is the thing. So there was
(11:00):
a thing over the weekend Influenceable, a company apparently accused
of cutting big checks to influencers on behalf of Big Soda.
Is there not a big anything. There was a big supermarket,
big soda now and some of them apparently No, of course,
there are tons of people that are paid. I can
(11:22):
tell you who's being paid and who's not. Like right now,
if you said, Dana, the world depends on you naming
all everybody who's getting a check, I could definitely give
you a list of names. Some of them, many of
them are on cable news noting nobody discloses that they're
paid for this stuff. I don't care if people get
paid to advocate, just be honest about it, right, So, like,
for instance, there's one account that said, oh, the government
(11:43):
wants to block soda purchase this for Americans on snap.
Remember when New York tried this and it backfired. Trump
probably had a diet coke button in the Oval office.
It's a ridiculous government overreach. Let people decide for themselves.
Can I just point out the idiocy of saying something
like this. You're talking about a big government program and
big government involvement funded by the taxpayer, and then you're
(12:05):
daring to call any limitation on it government overreach. You
are the left right now, all of these so called
conservative accounts that I've seen make this argument. You are
literally the left. You're the people bitching and moaning about
cutting waste and abuse from with doge because you're mad
over How about this, try some conservatism on for size
(12:25):
and ask, wtf do we need SNAP for more government?
If you had things again by the state and people
helping people, and we had lower taxes and a lot
better fiscal policy, guess what, you probably wouldn't need all
this stuff. But I love the people who are like, oh, well,
this big government program. Uh, you know, the people should
(12:45):
be able to spend taxpayer dollars on whatever they want.
That's what I hear. And apparently they're getting paid like
they're saying, oh, it's a new war on soda, targeting
purchases made their SNAP. It's not the government's role to
decide what people should should neet, why do we have
It's a government program. It is a big taxpayer funded
(13:07):
government program. News flash to you fake ask conservatives out
there where my tax dollars go? So do my two cents.
If you're getting my tax dollars, I'm going to tell
you what to do with them. Be conservative for once,
stop costplaying as it be consistent. Jimminy I mean, I've
got so many different there's a lot of big accounts.
(13:28):
A couple of them are my friends, and they all
say similar things like go you. They want to restrict
so to purchase this through snap. This is an unwanted
attempt by the government to dictate what Americans can and
can't buy on a giant government program. How many brain
cells do some of you people have, Dear heavens, where's
the consistency? It's a big government program. You're saying that
(13:52):
it's government overreach to restrict how a big government program operates.
And you want to call yourself a Republican or conservative,
get out, get out. It's the same thing as the
people who are mad over dose recommended cuts. But to
that point, Kine, where why aren't we getting bought off
(14:14):
big cab? I am for sale big gin here I am.
I wake up every morning and start my day with
some big gin I don't know. I mean, I'll I'll
sell it whatever. Come on, I'll tell you I am.
I mean, they're not like you know in your face,
but there'll be signs. Where's big Probionic when I need it? Yeah?
Caine was wondering, well, I think cakes between us? Yeah, no,
(14:37):
not you go look over there, meet the radio people
between us. Caine's already being paid by big Probiotics and
big hate old people. You are lying right now. I
mean I got I'm like all four being Uh, I'll
be paid by big Cab, Big Cab, Big Cabernet m
(15:00):
M right man, oh man, I'm telling you. I'm just
thinking of Yeah, there's there's a there's there's some good
big kombucha. What about big sour patch kids, dude, big snacks.
I will totally be paid by Big Snacks. I'm just saying,
(15:24):
I don't know that not maybe the same people who
run Big Soda. I just think I don't know. Like, apparently,
so there was a text that went out Nick Soretur.
I don't know who he is totally, but I follow him.
Uh he has some good stuff, he said. Influencers were
texted by people telling them to help push back against
(15:45):
government overreach, and they'd be paid between several hundred and
thousand dollars for each post. And that's why everything kind
of sounds similar. Apparently there was like a big thing.
So it's like they said, lobbying firms. I didn't even
know what is this hang on with this, oh cart choice,
that's a lobby firm. Amera Bev the big beverage. Okay,
(16:07):
so that's the non alcoholic refreshment. But I don't care
about Amera Bev because they're a non alcoholic beverage. I
don't care about you. Go away. I want big gin,
big cab, big moonshine Cane, dude, big moonshine. I am
for sale. I'll just let you know, like are people.
(16:29):
You do have to be aware of this stuff, and
it's pretty I think it's pretty obvious when I see
people who I can you know, even you can kind
of tell people are smart. Would you you could? You
would get paid a thousand dollars to post about a
big probiotic, wouldn't you? Oh hell yeah yeah, just to
just to put out there my own personal experience. So
(16:49):
be easy, easy thousand bucks. Yeah, it'd be great. Thanks

Quick five. So Anheuser Bush announced that they're ending their
(09:11):
sponsorship of Saint Louis's Pride Fest. Isn't it like the
biggest whatever, one of the big ones. They're not doing
their annual Alphabet Festival Pride Fest. This is after thirty
years of partnership. They said that, I guess it's one
hundred and fifty thousand that they gave to it every year.
I wonder if that's because all the bud light stuff,
or if it's just because people are they're broke. I
(09:32):
don't know. I'm just wondering. Yeah, I'm just I'm like curious.
I find that kind of interesting. Let's see the FDA
approved lab grown blood vessel. They've approved this despite some warnings.
The agency okayd an artificial vessel to restore blood float
in patients, even though they're its own scientists are flagging
the questionable study results and they're saying this is some
(09:53):
potentially fatal ruptures. Yeah, I don't think this is something
that I would that I would do. I don't think so.
A man allegedly robbed a store with a finger gun.
You know, Colorado, Springs. The PD there said they arrested
a dude because he allegedly used a finger gun to
rob a store. They said when they got there, the suspect,
(10:14):
Antonio Taylor, had a finger gun pointed at the clerk
and began to take items. They know it's not going
to fire, right Like, what is that? They were able
to take him into custody. They took his teenage daughter
too and put her in protective care. But now he's
in the pokey. He's got a very he's got his
mugshot all out there ready to wrap very interesting stuff.
And uh, let's see. Oh I can't We're runn oh segways.
(10:36):
They were calling all these scooters. I wonder if one
of mine, if mine is one of the ones that
are getting recalled. Things could be so easy right now
they're going to be made more difficult by our own side.
I mean, this is all like stuff like this. Can
we talk about Big Soda for a moment. Jeez, I
can't even believe this is the thing. So there was
(11:00):
a thing over the weekend Influenceable, a company apparently accused
of cutting big checks to influencers on behalf of Big Soda.
Is there not a big anything. There was a big supermarket,
big soda now and some of them apparently No, of course,
there are tons of people that are paid. I can
(11:22):
tell you who's being paid and who's not. Like right now,
if you said, Dana, the world depends on you naming
all everybody who's getting a check, I could definitely give
you a list of names. Some of them, many of
them are on cable news noting nobody discloses that they're
paid for this stuff. I don't care if people get
paid to advocate, just be honest about it, right, So, like,
for instance, there's one account that said, oh, the government
(11:43):
wants to block soda purchase this for Americans on snap.
Remember when New York tried this and it backfired. Trump
probably had a diet coke button in the Oval office.
It's a ridiculous government overreach. Let people decide for themselves.
Can I just point out the idiocy of saying something
like this. You're talking about a big government program and
big government involvement funded by the taxpayer, and then you're
(12:05):
daring to call any limitation on it government overreach. You
are the left right now, all of these so called
conservative accounts that I've seen make this argument. You are
literally the left. You're the people bitching and moaning about
cutting waste and abuse from with doge because you're mad
over How about this, try some conservatism on for size
(12:25):
and ask, wtf do we need SNAP for more government?
If you had things again by the state and people
helping people, and we had lower taxes and a lot
better fiscal policy, guess what, you probably wouldn't need all
this stuff. But I love the people who are like, oh, well,
this big government program. Uh, you know, the people should
(12:45):
be able to spend taxpayer dollars on whatever they want.
That's what I hear. And apparently they're getting paid like
they're saying, oh, it's a new war on soda, targeting
purchases made their SNAP. It's not the government's role to
decide what people should should neet, why do we have
It's a government program. It is a big taxpayer funded
(13:07):
government program. News flash to you fake ask conservatives out
there where my tax dollars go? So do my two cents.
If you're getting my tax dollars, I'm going to tell
you what to do with them. Be conservative for once,
stop costplaying as it be consistent. Jimminy I mean, I've
got so many different there's a lot of big accounts.
(13:28):
A couple of them are my friends, and they all
say similar things like go you. They want to restrict
so to purchase this through snap. This is an unwanted
attempt by the government to dictate what Americans can and
can't buy on a giant government program. How many brain
cells do some of you people have, Dear heavens, where's
the consistency? It's a big government program. You're saying that
(13:52):
it's government overreach to restrict how a big government program operates.
And you want to call yourself a Republican or conservative,
get out, get out. It's the same thing as the
people who are mad over dose recommended cuts. But to
that point, Kine, where why aren't we getting bought off
(14:14):
big cab? I am for sale big gin here I am.
I wake up every morning and start my day with
some big gin I don't know. I mean, I'll I'll
sell it whatever. Come on, I'll tell you I am.
I mean, they're not like you know in your face,
but there'll be signs. Where's big Probionic when I need it? Yeah?
Caine was wondering, well, I think cakes between us? Yeah, no,
(14:37):
not you go look over there, meet the radio people
between us. Caine's already being paid by big Probiotics and
big hate old people. You are lying right now. I
mean I got I'm like all four being Uh, I'll
be paid by big Cab, Big Cab, Big Cabernet m
(15:00):
M right man, oh man, I'm telling you. I'm just
thinking of Yeah, there's there's a there's there's some good
big kombucha. What about big sour patch kids, dude, big snacks.
I will totally be paid by Big Snacks. I'm just saying,
(15:24):
I don't know that not maybe the same people who
run Big Soda. I just think I don't know. Like, apparently,
so there was a text that went out Nick Soretur.
I don't know who he is totally, but I follow him.
Uh he has some good stuff, he said. Influencers were
texted by people telling them to help push back against
(15:45):
government overreach, and they'd be paid between several hundred and
thousand dollars for each post. And that's why everything kind
of sounds similar. Apparently there was like a big thing.
So it's like they said, lobbying firms. I didn't even
know what is this hang on with this, oh cart choice,
that's a lobby firm. Amera Bev the big beverage. Okay,
(16:07):
so that's the non alcoholic refreshment. But I don't care
about Amera Bev because they're a non alcoholic beverage. I
don't care about you. Go away. I want big gin,
big cab, big moonshine Cane, dude, big moonshine. I am
for sale. I'll just let you know, like are people.
(16:29):
You do have to be aware of this stuff, and
it's pretty I think it's pretty obvious when I see
people who I can you know, even you can kind
of tell people are smart. Would you you could? You
would get paid a thousand dollars to post about a
big probiotic, wouldn't you? Oh hell yeah yeah, just to
just to put out there my own personal experience. So
(16:49):
be easy, easy thousand bucks. Yeah, it'd be great. Thanks
