Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is the Dana Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in again with you. Glad to be here. You
can find Dana everywhere d Lash or Dana Lash Radio
on x on Twitter is a great way to stay connected.
Look at what's happened one day after I popped on
this show before, and now all these tariffs are essentially

(00:20):
suspended at least reduced to ten percent on most countries.
President Trump saying this is because a lot of countries
were begging to talk to us, pleading, saying, please please
let us be at the front of the table in
any kind of negotiation, and then China being the only
country that's like, we still want to fight, and now

(00:40):
we're fighting China even harder. I have so much audio
to get to, so many things to play for you
of you know, experts and people talking about this, but
I just thought it was so fascinating, and I wonder
if this is the same for you in my everyday life.
Here people walking by me talking about tariffs, or family
member's friends asking me questions about tariffs, and the up

(01:03):
and down of the stock market, and all of this
is essentially creating that negotiation that Trump that President Trump
wanted all along, and he has everyday people talking about
this stuff. How often in your regular life did you
talk about tariffs positively or negatively before any of this
started happening. Probably not that often. I know Trump has

(01:25):
done this before, at least with China. I know that
Obama has done this before with China. And there's even
viral audio of Obama bragging about how great tariffs are
at combating the Chinese government and all the different things
they do to us.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
But here I'll start with this audio. This is Kevin O'Leary.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
He popped up on MSNBC and he made fun of
an MSNBC host, a talking head for the crazy stuff
he's saying about how you know a trade war with
China has to unilaterally be bad for the United States,
And he also said a lot of the things that
are in fact the problem with why somebody, anybody, Republican, Democrat,

(02:03):
didn't matter to O'Leary, really needed to stand up and
fight them.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
This morning, Hey, Kevin, what's your reaction to this now?

Speaker 2 (02:10):
The I guess when they.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
Went over the math, it's not one hundred and twenty
five percent, it's one hundred and forty five percent.

Speaker 5 (02:16):
The US tariffs on Chinese goods.

Speaker 6 (02:20):
I've been an advocate for raising it to four hundred percent.
In one let's go to force cheat at the table,
because this narrative with China's not just about tariffs. Since
China joined the WTO in twenty twenty, or it's actually
two thousand, they have not abided by the rules in

(02:41):
any single year. There is no way you can figure
out or settle a trade dispute with them.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Although they said they'd agree to do that, they never did.

Speaker 6 (02:49):
They have been constantly stealing American ip including many from
my companies. We have not been able to.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
By the way, one of the most harmful things that
occurs is Chinese commpan. He's just copying our products, copying
everything that the United States creates and selling it cheaper
back to us along with to the rest of the world.
So that is in fact a problem that we need
to have a way to resolve.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
And this is a fight.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
Democrats and Republicans have been having for a while with China.
But continue, mister Earleiery well.

Speaker 6 (03:17):
To litigate there. There is no resolution available to us.
They are using our financial markets. I have to compete
with Chinese companies that don't divide by gap listing on
Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange for investors' dollars.
And I am forced to comply, and they're not. They're
allowed to use our legal system to sue me here
in the United States. I can't do the same in China.

(03:39):
So I'm just one hand. I put up my hand.
I was testifying yesterday at the China's hearings in Washington,
and I said, I've had enough, and I expect you
lawmakers and the administration to finally go to task and
settle this once and for all.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
Do something.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Is essentially what he's saying there, because the truth is,
and as is demonstrated in that answer, it doesn't even
matter what China signs. It doesn't matter if they're like
World Trade Organization, fine, we'll follow your rules, and then
they don't do that at all. Even the World Health Organization.
If people remember this something that China was pumping tons
of money into when they wanted to investigate COVID and

(04:17):
there were rules that said that they were allowed to
do that. China said no, like, eh, we're not going
to follow those rules that we agreed to. So you
do have to force them to understand that we will
take real action. We won't just continue to wag the
finger and say things out loud. By the way, that
never works. It hasn't worked for any of the other

(04:39):
things that Democrats typically do it for, whether it's the
border and we're not going to close it down, but
we're going to tell you not to cross it, darn it,
and you're going to listen. Otherwise we're a paper tiger
who does nothing. Trump is far from a paper tiger,
and that is something that is valuable.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
About this president.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
I also thought this was interesting that there was a
poll recently that asked the average American what they thought
of tariffs. In the short term, almost everybody hates it,
almost everyone. I think it was, you know, eighty something
percent and even forty something percent of Republicans. They believed
it was going to harm the economy. But in the
long term, a whole lot of people said, you know,
it might actually be good. It might actually be valuable

(05:19):
for us to have a trade war, to have fights
with friends and foes who take advantage of us financially,
in order to try to push more money back into
the United States. Something that's slowly been changing for many
many years, and it made me think about one other thing.
As much as you know, all this back and forth
stuff was happening. At the very beginning of President Biden's term,

(05:44):
he decided to wage a war on oil and gas.
How did that go for us as a country? How
did that go for you?

Speaker 2 (05:50):
For me?

Speaker 1 (05:50):
For gas prices in general, it went horribly. It went terribly.
And it was during the recovery from COVID and all
of that. And at the time, I remember on a
couple different places, I was on radio saying that this
was the wrong time for a fight if you ever
wanted to have one, and I personally would never want
to have one against energy. That's to me a very

(06:11):
stupid fight to be had for a tremendous amount of reasons.
But now, even as we see increased amounts of prices
on things and inflation going up and down at least
getting a little better recently, you ask yourself, is now
the right time for war on trade? And the only
reason that I would change my mind on this has
nothing to do with Republican or Democrat, But it has

(06:33):
to do with the long term value of the fight
in the world of fighting against oil and gas. That
was terrible for us, that was never going to wind
up to be a positive. And forcing people to buy
electric vehicles also is something that did not work and
wasn't going to work at all, and might still happen
at some point in the future. But all of those
things were just ridiculous, and essentially, the longer you looked

(06:55):
at a timeline of that decision making, the worse it got.
When you look at the decision making here, it gets
better and better for the average.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
American the longer we go.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
Most people see that, and especially after the suspension of
most of these tariffs or the reduction of them for
most countries, it immediately hit the stock market in a
positive way. So it is interesting whether the narrative is
that Trump gave in and people on the right, on
the left wherever forced him to go ahead and acknowledge
a ninety day pause, which I don't necessarily believe. I

(07:28):
kind of think this was the plan all along, or
whatever it might be. The threat of this stuff is
actually working, all right. A couple other quick things before
I take a break that I thought were pretty interesting
and actually know what I'll play this too.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
This is one more tariff thing. And then I will
move on from it.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
Governor Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, apparently as a fan of
the tariffs, which is hilarious. A person who oftentimes hates
anything and everything about President Trump, did say this the
other day.

Speaker 7 (07:56):
I understand the motivation behind the tariffs, and I can
tell you here's where President Trump and I do agree.
We do need to make more stuff in America. Yeah,
we do, for cars and chips, we do more steel
and ships. We do need fair trade.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
Yeah, we need all that. Yes, that's the entire point.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
By the way, if you try to jump in and
say and here's where I disagree with him, now you're
making up things that aren't part of the discussion.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
Now it's no longer part of the point.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
But thank you even Whitmer for jumping in and saying
that she agrees. Yes, there was audio after that where
she says all these negatives and I just don't care
about them. Let me play this. This is CNN. They
did a town hall with Bernie Sanders, and I really
enjoyed that. I didn't watch the town hall, but I
really enjoyed this moment going viral online.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
And I'll tell you why in just a second. But
here we go all with appra Senator Bernie Sanders.

Speaker 8 (08:48):
I want to introduce Grace Thomas.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
She's a local civil rights attorney.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
She's a Democrat. Right.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
They then pronouns, actually, thank you, it's They then pronouns
darn it, thank you, and all Anderson Cooper does is
say oh, and then she moves on from it. But
I love this because doesn't that now mean that CNN
is hateful? Doesn't that now mean that Anderson Cooper is hateful?
Aren't those the rules in the world of the woke
is that if you do something for any reason that

(09:14):
goes against the grain of the woke ideology or the
woke rules of the day, you have to be a horrible,
hating you, monster of a person.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
I thought that was the rules.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
I'm sure they're going to forgive Anderson for not knowing
that he was supposed to say they them to a
person that he looked at and said her too. I'm
sure that that's going to change for some and not others.
But I just love that that this moment was viral
and a bunch of people, I think more on the
right than the left, were kind of laughing about it
than the left being all up in arms about it.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
But if this happened on Fox News, they'd be angry.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
They'd be incredibly angry, and they'd been calling for the
heads of people all over the place, regardless of if
they actually would get them, which hopefully they would not.
All Right, one last thing I do want to play
this not terrorf related at all either, but just interesting
to me. Tim Walls gave a speech at the Minnesota
Capitol building the other day in front of a bunch

(10:07):
of veterans, and Tim Walls is someone that a whole
lot of veterans do not like because of his stolen
valor claims and all the things that he's done, where
essentially he even ran away from potentially being in a
conflict situation while he was serving in the National Guard.
All of this matters, and all of this definitely matters
to heroes who actually stand up and fight for our

(10:29):
country and absolutely do not claim to do something that
they never did. Stolen valor, the worst of the sins
I think within the community. This was amazing to watch
these guys boo and heckle him.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
I can't play all of this. Let me play a
little bit.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
I know this audio is not great but I'll play
a little bit of the beginning where they just boot
him relentlessly.

Speaker 9 (10:51):
Thank you all, thank you all.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
I love that he keeps saying thank you all as
there's just a merciless amount of booze coming everybody in there,
and he's like, thank you guys, you're so great for this.
And then later and I think this was even captured
on local television ABC five in the area on this
and some of the stuff they were yelling out in
Saint Paul.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
Welcome to the capitol.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
You're a coward was one of the things they yelled,
and he's just like, welcome to the Capitol.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
Things are great.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
I love that he was actually also praised, this is
the last thing I'll say about it, by the broken
news media for being nice to veterans who were standing
there and boeing him, because if he had done anything else,
everyone in society would turn on him. Of course, you
respect the voices of those heroes, those individuals who are
mad at you. It doesn't give you any level of

(11:46):
you know, brownie points that you listened as they heckled
and screamed at you and then tried to ignore them.
But actually mainstream media tried to celebrate Walls for being
able to hear the criticism, which is in fact insane.
It almost belittles the criticism itself, just turns it in
to look at how great Walls is for letting people
boo him for something that they absolutely have a right

(12:07):
to boo him for. But again, what was he gonna
do actually start yelling at them to shut up?

Speaker 2 (12:12):
In that world?

Speaker 1 (12:13):
I hope he's impeached immediately because that would be horrific
to most everyone on not just a go long party lines.
All right, let's take a break. A lot coming up.
Craig Collins filling in on the data show.

Speaker 10 (12:24):
What does living better mean to you? Is it more money?
A bigger house?

Speaker 3 (12:28):
Now? Think about this?

Speaker 10 (12:29):
What about how you feel physically?

Speaker 2 (12:31):
Every day?

Speaker 10 (12:31):
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
on the day. If pain is affecting your life, see
how relief Factor can help change that. Relief Factor is
a one hundred percent drug free daily supplement that helps
your body fight pain. Naturally developed by doctor's Relief Factor
supports your body's response to inflammation and it doesn't just

(12:54):

or even eliminate it, and it's safe to take daily.
In fact, the longer you take Relief Factor, the more
effective it is. Over one million people have turned to

(13:16):
less than a dollar a day. Called one eight hundred
four relief that's one eight hundred the number four relief
or visit relief Factor dot com.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
It's time to embrace the suck once again. Every stock
market sell off is different. The media will tell you
it's the end of the world.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
Don't believe it. If you have an investment plan, you'll
be just fine.

Speaker 4 (13:35):
Check out the Watchdog on Wall Street podcast on Apple, Spotify,
wherever you get your podcasts.

Speaker 11 (13:41):
And now all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick five.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
That's right, it's time for Quick five on the Dana Show.
My name is Craig Collins filling in d Dana Lash Radio.
Great ways to stay connected to her. Our researchers at
Harvard Medical School have discovered something that I imagine we
actually have known about for quite some time. I'm guessing
that this is not brand new science like they're presenting
it to us as. But they're saying that there's something

(14:08):
that goes on in the brain of individuals with quote
mental health disorders that sometimes turns them into intense political
behaviorist type of people, people who will do violent protesting,
civil disobedience, aggressive expression of.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
Political views, etc. Etc.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Apparently we found a link and something in the brain
that demonstrates the likelihood of this happening again. I feel
like this is something that probably the darker parts of
Washington have known about for quite some time, and some
of our scientists are just now finally letting us know about.
But there's now data and proof that your craziness might
turn you into someone who's well insane in politics, especially,

(14:49):
I would imagine on the left, with some of the
angry leftists who also very much claim to be the
nicest people you'll ever meet, and then scream and yell
at you for all varieties of things, all right.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
Other stuff out there.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
Having a pet makes you as happy as having an
extra ninety thousand dollars a year. According to a brand
new study. I don't know how they got to exactly
this number. Researchers in England essentially asked people what your
pet was worth to you, and somehow they landed on
a number about ninety thousand bucks. This is for a
married couple, so forty five thousand dollars a person is

(15:23):
what you think your pet is actually worth. Pretty surprising,
but darn it to a lot of people, probably exactly accurate.
I wonder how much other things in your life are
worth to you compared to sweet sweet money. Would you
give up the cell phone for ninety thousand dollars? I
imagine the answer is also no other stories out there
that I thought were interesting.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
For quick Five.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Bad background music at work can tank your employees' moods,
even if the job's not that bad, and if the
bosses aren't jerks like you have at some places. If
everything's great, but then the music behind you is crappy,
it might make you just as upset as anything else
going wrong in the work. This is not remotely surprising.
And actually I remember being in a surf store that

(16:05):
I don't want to name in Florida and talking to
someone about the background music, and they were saying that
they had nightmares about it because it was constantly on
a loop for their job.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
I thought that was amazing.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
All Right, one last one, and we'll probably get to
this audio a little bit later on in the show,
but it is pretty great. A nine one one call
was made in Georgia in Savannah, Georgia, and the guy
says that during the call he heard the dispatcher order McDonald's.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
This is a real thing that happened earlier this month.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
This is a big complaint about a lot of places,
who are you know, doing all kinds of things to
make nine to one one or certain services not as
beneficial as they used to be.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
But there's actually audio.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Of someone answering the phone saying, okay, we'll help you
out with your issue, and then also can I get.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
A mcgriddle please.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
It's crazy and it's going viral now a couple of
weeks after it happened. All right, quick break, A lot
coming up. This is Craig Collins filling in on the
Dana Show.

Speaker 10 (17:01):

Speaker 1 (18:27):
This is the Dana Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in, thrilled to be with you. A bunch of
stuff out there to cover. Let's play this audio first.
This is Sanden admitting that prices have gone down for
the first time in a long time.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Here, I'll let them tell you.

Speaker 3 (18:42):
Consumer prices month over month.

Speaker 12 (18:44):
So this was actually a drop of point one percent
negative point one percent.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
That's the first time we've seen that since COVID.

Speaker 12 (18:51):
Year over year, the annual inflation rate was at two
point four percent. This was also better than expected and
a six month low, moving in the right direction. As
far as why this happened, there's a few drivers.

Speaker 3 (19:04):
One.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
President Trump is probably what they should today that would
be valuable at least as an answer to this, and
most Americans would probably credit him for this, not because
of all the discussions about tariffs or what's happening with
the stock market recently, even though that might wind up
being a net win. For America in the coming months,
coming days, even yesterday seem pretty good for a lot

(19:27):
of people. But there's other reasons that we might think this.
What is cnnsa thing.

Speaker 12 (19:31):
That really played a role here as you can see
the trend here at the inflation rate dipping a little bit.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
One of the drivers was energy.

Speaker 12 (19:37):
The fact that gasoline prices crazy move up like they usually.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
Do in the month of March. That really helped the inflictions.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
You know what's crazy about that is anyone who was
yelling and screaming that Biden's war on energy and Biden
when he was campaigning to be president saying that he
would go after oil and gas companies being a horrible
thing for our comomy. And then I love my favorite
other part of this before I move on to something else,
is all the times that media tells us that presidents

(20:06):
have nothing to do with the cost of things, that
they can't impact the cost of gas or any of
that stuff. The way that we as stupid, silly Americans
think that the guy in charge of our country can
And they'll probably say that again as prices start to
go down, to discredit Trump for anything happening, But we
actually see it occur in society. We see the plan

(20:28):
on one side going after this specific industry being horrible
for us, and the plan on the other side not
going after that industry but trying to enhance it being
great for us. This is a very obvious moment where
presidential policy specifically actually has a tremendous impact on our
society and our economy, and yet they'll deny that tooth

(20:49):
and nail forever.

Speaker 6 (20:51):
Right.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
I do like this too. By the way, this is
a quick thing.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Scott Jennings CNN probably one of the only people on
CNN that conservative enjoy to listen to, mostly because he's
in there fighting the good fight. He's sitting being attacked
by three or four people at a time most days
on television. But this back and forth went viral, and
you'll be able to tell why very quickly.

Speaker 13 (21:13):
You want to engage in personal insults you lack and
the legitimate point you make up personal inputs, personal insults.
The point I am making is in this new world order,
we are looking at countries, whether or not they're an
adversary or ally, it is being determined on what kind
of deal we can get, and we cannot govern, We
cannot legislate that way we are increasingly isolated on the

(21:33):
world stage.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
I love both of those, not the you do this,
not me stuff at the beginning, but the why that
he asks when we can't govern based on getting better
deals as far as trade goes with both allies and
enemies or just anyone in the world, why can't we
do that again is the question?

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Because it's going to be bad for us, is what
they'll tell you.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
You know, the amount of people that were terrified that
the whole tariff war was going to impact us immediately
was only because of media. I'm not saying that a
trade war wouldn't inevitably raise prices somewhat for some amount
of time. Although if good trade deals are made and
businesses here in the United States make more money, either

(22:15):
you know, sending more product out that we create here
in the United States or just selling it here to
our own country, whatever it might be. Yeah, the economy
might get better and things might actually improve for all
of us, but there might be pain in the beginning.
But I love the fact that right after the announcement,
before they even take place, you have people walking around like,
have you seen the prices of stuff and the prices

(22:37):
had not changed yet. In fact, actually prices went down
a little bit according to the data I just played
from CNN. But it's that belief that things are as
they're represented to you in media, as opposed to the
reality of what you're actually seeing. It always shocks me.
I wonder if it shocks you too, the amount of
people in your life who will walk around and tell

(22:58):
you what's going on, not based on seeing it, not
based on experiencing it, but being told that it's there
and then not going and looking, Because that should be
the first step for all of us. And I don't
care what side of the political isle it's on the
right or the left. If you're told something's happening, before
you go tell all your friends that this terrible thing

(23:19):
is happening, you should make sure that it actually is.
And more importantly, I feel like I'm now jumping up
on a soapbox and preaching.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
But more importantly, is it happening to you? Whatever that
might be.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
When you yell and scream about the things in society
that you think are unfair and terrible, do you have
any sort of experience that backs up that claim or
do you just believe it because someone else told you
it's true, no matter who they are, no matter what
reasons they had for saying it. I find a lot
of that to be amusing too. All Right, something else
out there that I like. And this is also a

(23:51):
terrorf related thing. I don't know why so much of
the news cycle right now is focused on this one issue,
but darn it, that's how the news cycle works. And
most of media wants to hate President Trump enough that
they'll look for anything and everything to attack him on,
so it becomes the only thing people talk about.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
But this was pretty great.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
This was the White House Press secretary yesterday dropping a bomb,
if that's what you want to call it. I think
that's what they called it on social media, on our
actual media outlets, about how they've discussed so many of
these things and how ridiculous it is, and how they
obviously don't understand the end result of having all the
countries in the world basically calling us and begging for

(24:33):
better trade deals so we don't have tariffs that harm
them more than treating us more fairly actually would. Here's
a little bit of Levitt, you know, dunking on all
of media in front of her.

Speaker 14 (24:44):
Many of you in the media clearly missed the art
of the deal. You clearly failed to see what President
Trump is doing here. You tried to say that the
rest of the world would be moved closer to China,
and in fact we've seen the opposite effect. The entire
world is calling the United United States of America, not China,
because they need our markets, they need our consumers, and
they need this president in the Oval Office to talk

(25:07):
to them. That's exactly why more than seventy five countries
have called. Because the United States of America is the
best place in the world to do business. And as
the President has shown great courage, as the Secretary has said,
and choosing to retaliate against China even higher.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
Yeah, take action, baby, is what she's saying there, and
why that's good? One last thing about this and then
I will actually try to move on to something else.
And it's just a simple question, and it's one you
can ask yourself, or you can ask friends, relatives.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
Whoever is crapping all over these policies.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
No matter what we do here in the United States,
do you think we'd ever create a system that's is
unfair to the rest of the world as China's is
China system isn't just unfair to the United States, it's
unfair to everybody they do business with. It's insanely unfair.
It's insanely you know, one sided that relationship. So being
afraid that all of these other countries are going to

(25:57):
turn to China and away from the United States, a
country that's been allowing us to get raw deals from
a lot of these countries and now just want fair deals.
I will never push as far as the Communist Republic
of China to do things that insanely overvalue and essentially
harm all the people we're doing business with, but overvalue
ourselves to a degree that makes no sense whatsoever.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
Where you're allowed to sue.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
A company in the United States if you're a Chinese company,
but we're not allowed to sue you there. If you
do something that's unfair to us, it's crazy. No matter
what Trump does, I don't think it is possible, and
I mean this as candidly as I can say it,
to get anywhere near the level of unfairness that China
has with the rest of the world. And we all
know that are powers that be. President Trump knows that

(26:46):
China knows that, so as they fight us and desperately
try to claw back the tremendous amount of money that
they make off of our economy and they make off
of our citizens buying their stuff. They need to remember
that will never ever act the way they do, no
matter how much more we try to get something that
we think is simply fair. But again, that's just something
that I think that you could have that conversation with

(27:08):
an everyday person in your life, whether they hate or
love Republicans, Trump, whoever, and they'd be like, yeah, you're
probably right about that, and that matters more than anything else.
All Right, other things out there that I saw that
I thought was interesting. Maryland has quietly unplugged their ev mandate.
It cited President Trump and automaker concerns about this. You're

(27:29):
gonna see a lot of this. You're going to see
a lot of places say, you know, that thing we
were claiming we were going to do a few years ago,
we're not gonna do it anymore because it's not really
in our interest and more importantly, it's not in the
interest of Americans. We're not going to be forced to
buy something because you told us to buy it. We're
just going to resist that. As much as we can,

(27:50):
as long as we can. I'm going to keep buying
my awesome vehicle that runs on gas lean that doesn't
you know, go to craft if it gets too cold outside,
which you see viral photos of that all the time
during unique cold snaps like in Chicago, where all of
a sudden, nobody can charge at Tesla and they have
lines backed up and people just have bricks outside their
houses for a few days.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
We don't want that.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
We want things that work all the time, and that
would be the sweet, sweet gasoline powered vehicle that I
have right now, and I imagine most of you have.
You can't just transform something because you demand it. So
they're learning that. They're realizing that when they lose elections,
and now they're quietly unplugging these programs. And as I said,
we'll probably see more and more of this and it'll

(28:34):
be good for all involved. And it's obviously the kind
of thing that many Americans, regardless of your political party, want,
And I do think this is crazy. I debated mentioning
this in this discussion in this topic, but I'm going
to bring it up. The amount of people who are
now anti Tesla because of politics. You know, a few
years ago, before Elon Musk even dips his toe into

(28:57):
any of these things. Tesla is a you know, favorite
of the world of the left, and evs are a
favorite of the world the left.

Speaker 2 (29:05):
All those things.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
The only thing that has turned the corner there is
believing that Elon Musk and Tesla are too closely tied together,
so you want to mess up your ridiculously expensive vehicle,
which makes no sense out of mean whatsoever.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
It makes no sense to most people.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
But that might also be a reason that people are
giving in now the insanity of political motivation, as opposed
to someone thinking that they wanted to buy an electric
vehicle because it was supposed to be better for our society.
If you're someone that thought that, you know, the world
was going to be safer or going to be healthier
if you drove around in an electric car instead of
a gas powered vehicle, why all of a sudden, if

(29:42):
Elon Musk is pro Donald Trump pro you know Republicans,
do you now not care about that?

Speaker 2 (29:48):
Is now not that world.

Speaker 1 (29:50):
It's no longer at all important to you, because darn it,
that guy said something nice about the man.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
That I hate. I think that's hilarious.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
I think that oftentimes these things that people claim to
be passionate about are so easily demonstrated to just be
absolute crap in their own minds, and it's something completely
different that's motivating them to act the way they do,
because those beliefs are only held so tightly when some
sort of problem is at your feet, or even lack
thereof being directly at your feet. But I digress. We'll

(30:18):
take a break on that. We'll come back with something sillier.
This is Craig Collins filling in on the Danish show.

Speaker 10 (30:24):
All family pharmacy is all of the medications that you
need without anything being manufactured at all or sourced from

et cetera, because that's what all family pharmacy does. You

(30:47):
don't have to play by big pharmer's rules. Remember when
they tried to shut down actual therapeutics and access to
those therapeutics. Remember when they try to bar you from
getting ivermectin and hydroxychloroquin and that you were being told
that you were crazy if you had those. Yeah, but hey,
take this injection. We don't know what it does, but
go ahead and take it. They didn't just dismiss the alternatives,
they crush your ability to get them. All Family Pharmacy

a fun twist, follow Dana's Absurd Truth podcast for bite

Apple or wherever you get your podcast.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
This is the Danish show. My name is Craig Collins
filling in thrilled to be with you. The Masters is
going on right now. The usual names are jumping to
the top of the leaderboard. That part is unsurprising to
maybe a lot of people, anyone that follows this. But
there is a viral video from yesterday that's just amazing
to watch. And granted, radio is not going to do

(32:22):
justice to this thing the way that the video does,
so I recommend people go out there and watch it.
But Rory McElroy, his young daughter Poppy, a little kid
is on the green, putting in a way on the
Masters in which you really just have to tap something
and then the green is going to do all the
work for you, and she crushes it. And the only

(32:42):
reason I want to play this audio, because you're not
even gonna hear any sort of anchor, you know, describing
what's happening. I can try to do that for you,
is the crowd going nuts at the Masters when the
little kid makes this butt and she actually winds up
even like hugging dad and getting a little shy like
little kids do when they all of a sudden the
center of tension.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
But this is amazing.

Speaker 1 (33:01):
And here here's a little bit of the way the
crowd reacts when Rory's kid demonstrates that she's probably gonna
wind up someday being better at golf than dad.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
That's amazing.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
That's the kind of roar you'd get when Tiger was
coming back in the last few holes of a Master's
to win something. The way that the crowd goes to
nuts and the little girl's just sitting there. She's like,
I guess I did good. I'll never forget that moment.
I don't think Rory will ever forget that moment of
his little kid getting that kind of reception. A day
before the Masters get started, Rory hasn't teed off yet,

(33:43):
so I don't know if he's going to wind up
being at the front of the pack. If not, his
kid can make fun of him for not being that
good at golf Dad, and really, I should help you
out someday, all right. I mentioned this before the nine
to one call where a dispatcher actually was ordering McDonald's
also trying to take a nine and one call. And
here's a bit of the news coverage of this, including

(34:05):
the guy who made the call complaining about how ridiculous
this is, and then at the very end of this clip,
you actually do hear the order for a mcgriddle from
McDonald's from the person who's taking your nine on one
phone call.

Speaker 15 (34:17):
My wife called me while as I work at about
nine thirty and said, someone when you know, was snooping
around the house, knocking on the doors, banging on the
windows and stuff. I was panicking because, you know, my
wife is home alone with my five month old daughter,
and I was, you know, coming home not knowing what
I was going to come home to riddle.

Speaker 16 (34:36):
Sorry, that should never happen.

Speaker 17 (34:38):
You'll, of course not breakfasts should be different from your
answer a call, and the two should never inter twined.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
By the way, that's a county commissioner commission chair saying
that chester ellis at the end there, like, yeah, we
shouldn't have this happen anywhere in the country.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
Of course, it shouldn't happen anywhere in the country. Of course.

Speaker 1 (34:55):
It's horrible and terrible and it's kind of ridiculous if
I play that audio again, that the person who's making
the order doesn't seem to really care at all about
the fact that they're going to get caught for this,
or that this is a recording. They actually even say, like,
what when still being tried to be communicated with about
what the problem is that the person on the other

(35:16):
line is facing and why they dialed nine to one
in the first place. Sorry, I'm sorry. What do you
want me to actually do here? How do you want
me to proceed? I want you to take this phone call,
darn it, and actually treat it like it's important. All right,
One last thing too, before you take a break here
in a little bit. Today is National Sibling Day, and
people were asked what the perfect amount of siblings are

(35:37):
in response to National Sibling Day. So I guess say
happy this day to your family members on social media.
I think that's the rules of any of these stupid
national holidays. But here's the funny part. Fourteen percent of
people who responded to this survey said that zero siblings
was the perfect amount.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
I want none. I ba humbug the whole thing.

Speaker 1 (35:58):
Twenty six percent said two siblings perfect, nineteen percent said one,
and eighteen percent said three. I have three siblings, but
zero got a fourteen percent vote, and then four siblings
and up to ten all had like two percent of
the vote. But how crazy that for National Sibling Day?
Fourteen percent of people are like I don't want any

(36:18):
all right, quick break a lot more Creig Collins filling

Speaker 1 (37:30):
This is the Dana Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in, thrilled to be with you. Bunch of stuff
to talk about d Lash or a Dana Lash radio
on X on Twitter to stay connected with all things Dana.
A bunch of other ways to stay connected with her too.
I'm not sure how many people remember this name. I
remember it because she's insane. But there was the Disinformation Zar,

(37:54):
the Disinformation Governance Board head that the Biden Harris administration
picked back into on twenty two her name Nina Jankowitz.
She wound up not having a job because as soon
as the American people heard about literally George Orwell nineteen
eighty four stuff, big brother stuff, we were all nonplus
about it. A lot of us were not happy with it.

(38:17):
So now she's a writer. I think Bulwark and some
other places have published some of her craziness. She also,
i think testified recently in front of the House. All
of this is now her new claim being that we
conservatives Republicans the horrible side of the aisle that she hates,
lie about the fact that Democrats want to censor us. Now,

(38:40):
just again to remind you, this was the person that
was going to be the head of the disinformation board
of the government, the Ministry of Truth, more or less
that would have told us what was a lie and
what was not a lie, including that Biden was mentally great.
He was doing an incredible job. He was so sharp
behind the scenes. The American people eventually found out, and

(39:02):
a lot of us knew all along that his brain
was broken profoundly. But one other thing to remind you,
and I'm sorry to do this, I think that this
will not be fun for a lot of people to hear,
but to write you who exactly Nina Jankowitz is and
all the things she claims about the lies of the right.
She recently created a version of a Mary Poppins song

(39:22):
about how horrible Republicans are and their lie about lying
and put it up on social media. So again I apologize,
but I can't help but play on this.

Speaker 2 (39:33):
Hovering is really quite ferocious. It suenas to take some
makes them sound precocious in congress or mainstream outlet, so
this information's.

Speaker 7 (39:42):
Origins are slightly less atrocious.

Speaker 15 (39:46):
It's how you had a litt lighted lie.

Speaker 2 (39:47):
Oh god, it's a delighted lie.

Speaker 13 (39:49):
It's how you had a little line when Rudy Giuliani
shared that in Tomson, Ukraine.

Speaker 1 (39:54):
Wait a minute, Wait a minute, when Rudy Giuliani talked
about a bunch of things that wound up being true.
I think is one of the problems this here. Let's
play another one up.

Speaker 13 (40:03):
TikTok influences tay covid, can't hoss pain then on during
the sinful when we really should take note.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
A lot of examples. She even uses just wrong.

Speaker 1 (40:12):
But this is a failed theater kid that's desperate for attention,
that really really wants you to know that she's not
the one who's trying to keep the truth from you,
and she claims that social media. I'm again sorry to
anyone that I just played that on you for I
couldn't help it. It's that bad that you might actually
be amused by it. But anyway, she's someone who wanted

(40:33):
to censor all kinds of things social media whatever, and
do it through the government and do it with the
guise of protecting you. And she's claiming that Republicans are
too afraid of this narrative that's not real, even though
after Elon Musk bought Twitter, he helped prove to us
with the Twitter files that it absolutely does happen. And
even Mark Zuckerberg, now a fan of Donald Trump, has

(40:55):
admitted that Facebook did way too much censoring at the
behest of the government. How do you just go out
there and say that these definitively proven true things are
not true? And I think there's only one way you
do that, all right, let's go with two ways that
you do that. The first one is you're so blind
to your own arrogance that you don't even check to
make sure that what you're saying is accurate. This is

(41:18):
a nicer assumption I make, and I doubt many people
actually fall in this bucket, but I assume there are
some that are so arrogant in their opinion that they
don't even pay attention to when people actually confirm the
opposite of their point as true. And then the other
one is you just assume everyone else is dumb enough
to not do that that you might know you're lying
and this, I think is something that happens a lot

(41:39):
from the government. They just treat us like we're morons
and assume that we are, and we have to prove
to them or not. And a vast majority of us
hopefully do that. I think at least some of us
definitely do that, and just looking to see what the
truth actually is. But how ridiculous that she's out there writing,
you know, op eds and appearing in front of Congress
and saying all kinds of things about how the disinformation

(42:01):
obsession of the right is actually a horrible lie, convincing
you to be more passionate emotionally about one side than
the other, even though Democrats often play the emotion card
all the time. And I will say one last thing
about this and then I'll move on to something else.
What I think is really hilarious and I probably can't

(42:23):
get over in any sense of the word or in
any sense of this idea. Is why it would matter
if you were such a passionate proponent of the First
Amendment or free speech or the lack of censorship in
our society that you went too far with that. You're like, yeah,
we really need to make sure not to censor anything.
Isn't that still inherently a good thing? Isn't still having

(42:44):
the freedom and ability to voice our opinion no matter
what it is good, even if you were overly passionate
about that idea compared to the opposite, someone like this
moron saying out loud that we need to shut everybody
up because they're too influential and all the horrible lies
telling us again, just assuming that you're a moron.

Speaker 2 (43:03):
All right.

Speaker 1 (43:03):
Another big story out there, the House to adopt the
budget blueprint for President Trump's agenda. This is after the
Senate passed this. I think on Saturday there was almost
not going to be a vote about this. A few
Republicans were standing on the side saying they want deeper
cuts to the government that are guaranteed. I think that
the target for a lot of conservatives was one point

(43:26):
five trillion dollars in savings to the American people, something
that Speaker of the House Mike Johnson said that he's
still committed to. But the budget that was passed, which
does allow for twenty seventeen Trump tax cuts to continue,
essentially puts the target at a minimum much much lower
than one point five trillion. I think four billion is

(43:47):
the spending cut minimum. And many people that were standing
away from this and trying to fight it and potentially
not pass it, and it did pass the House two
sixteen to two fourteen. We're saying that we need a
deeper guarantee of spending minimums, and I agree with that.
By the way, you know, when you're talking about trying
to find one point five trillion dollars in access spending

(44:09):
in the government, and then you put a minimum standard
at just four billion, you're definitely leaving a big net
in the middle there. Obviously, I'm saying the obvious part
out loud to most of us, and I would have
liked it to close just a bit more, you know,
hundreds of billions at least to get us close to
the one point five trillion. And this is actually on

(44:30):
the heels of something that Doze put out I think
last night on X on Twitter those of course is
the government Government efficiency, the Department of Government Efficiency, I
should just say it correctly. Thing run by Elon Musk
yesterday they tweeted that a twenty twenty survey revealed twenty

(44:51):
four point five thousand people twenty four thousand, five hundred
people one hundred and fifteen years or older claimed fifty
nine million dollars.

Speaker 2 (45:02):
In unemployment benefits. It's probably not real.

Speaker 1 (45:05):
Even more so, twenty eight thousand people between the ages
of one and five claimed two hundred and fifty four
million dollars in unemployment benefits. You got to think that
that's got to be tough if you're one to five
years old and you've been in the work world long
enough to go ahead and qualify for unemployment benefits. It's

(45:25):
hard out there for that age group of people in
the workforce. And then finally, nine thousand, nine thousand, seven
hundred people also fifteen years into the future, meaning they're
not born yet, their birthdate is fifteen years from now
claimed sixty nine million dollars in benefits. Tough for the
time travelers to work in our society too. And then actually,

(45:49):
in one case, someone with a birthday in twenty one
fifty four got forty one thousand bucks himself in unemployment benefits.
All the ways that the government is just broken and
wasting our money and you know, kind of arrogantly doing
it and assuming that if we look at it, we'll
just have to raise our hands and be like that's
the cost of doing business. I think more or less

(46:10):
that's what they want you to say. But this is
one example where they found millions and millions of dollars,
you know, closing in on at least a billion, just
in abuses by completely impossible people trying to get unemployment benefits.
And this is why I think a lot of conservatives,
a lot of politicians, and certainly the few that voted

(46:31):
against the bill yesterday, would have liked to see more
than four billion as the baseline number for savings for
the American people. Now, one last thing, too, is you
talk about all that and you look into what the
future holds, whether it's with tariffs or anything else. There
is a way in our society, and President Trump did
talk about this, and I'm just going to throw it

(46:52):
out there because I can't get over it. To really
reduce taxes entirely on.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
The American people. That's a thing that could happen.

Speaker 1 (47:00):
It would involve permanent tariffs on a lot of countries
for goods that came in here, something the United States
used to do way back in the day before taxes
was our main revenue stream for our government.

Speaker 2 (47:10):
And there are other things that.

Speaker 1 (47:12):
Could happen to help with that, like the checking of
all the excess spending. And I'll just say this, whether
it's Trump or anyone else, a Democrat or Republican, although
of course only Republicans would want to do this, getting
rid of us paying taxes five days before tax Day
is something that would be incredibly popular with the American people.

Speaker 2 (47:32):
They would love it.

Speaker 1 (47:33):
I assume we'd all love it if we stopped having
to do any kind of federal tax whatsoever. That would
feel like a good thing and a nice win. And
it potentially was something that Trump has teased before and
part of the reason to contemplate significant tariffs and the
rest of the world, and not necessarily something they're talking
about as much now, but at least bouncing around in
the back of my head as something that's been talked

(47:55):
about even a little bit maybe in some of those
podcast places before Trump resounding one the office of president
again by saying that he would do more for the
American people and our pocket our checkbooks than anyone else does.
All right, quick break a lot coming up. Greig Collins
filling in on the data show.

Speaker 10 (48:13):
Gold prices have surged over forty percent since January twenty
twenty four consistently reaching new highs. According to Goldman Sachs Research,
the upward trend is expected to persist due to strong
demand from central banks. It's stuff like this that's made
me take action and why I've bought precious medals like
gold and silver. I've partnered with a great company that
makes it super easy to buy, easy, transparent and simple.

And that company is gold Co. They're a huge supporter

My name is Craig Collins, filling in d Lash Dana
lash Radio great ways to stay connected to her on
x on Twitter. A guy in Nevada apparently got arrested
because he had seven seven emotional support animals that he
should not have. They were tigers. I have multiple pieces
of audio for different news organizations covering this. Let's do

(49:34):
a local news news channel twelve in Nevada talking about
this story.

Speaker 9 (49:38):
Forty's rate of private home to seize these full grown tigers.
Seven tigers taken who pretty early this morning. Police tell
us the owner, Carl Mitchell, did not have the necessary
permits to keep those tigers.

Speaker 2 (49:51):
Unsurprised that that was true.

Speaker 9 (49:52):
Mitchell was also taken into custody accused of resisting arrest.

Speaker 1 (49:56):
That also not surprised that he resisted arrest. This story
is so insane. Let's do it in a foreign accent
and see if it sounds any better.

Speaker 7 (50:03):
Well, A Nevada man has been arrested after police seized
seven tigers from his property, which he claimed were his
emotional support animals.

Speaker 2 (50:13):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
This story is nuts. It's crazy, and I love the fact.
My favorite part about this too, is that he went
emotional support animal when he was told that he couldn't
have seven tigers in his house. He's like, no, no, that
it's fine. They're all here for emotional support. You should
just let me have them. It would be great if
I could keep these. And then he resists the rest
and then while other things happen. But that's Nevada, not

(50:36):
a Florida man story, but it feels like one for sure.
Have you felt like the world has been windier? That's
a real question that science has chosen to answer, at
least here in the United States. It is the windiest
year on record in or the windiest month excuse me,
on record in quite some time. Wind you know, I
guess has been through the room a lot of places.

(50:58):
Most of the country in act, well above average throughout
the Midwest and parts of the south, a little bit
above average on the coasts. But has it been windy?
Have there been a lot of wind gusts? March twenty
twenty five, the answer was yes. I'm surprised that more
people aren't, you know, storming social media and or some
television stations telling us this is some sort of byproduct

(51:20):
of global warming or something else that it isn't. But
just has it been windy for you? Apparently a science says, yep,
if you thought so. Another story out there that I
thought was kind of ridiculous. A Chinese restaurant had to
close after cops discovered that its roast duck option on
its menu was actually just street pigeons.

Speaker 2 (51:41):
This is disgusting, but.

Speaker 1 (51:43):
In China, where they're known to eat a lot of
things that the rest of the world would not consume.
And sometimes we blame stuff like COVID on the things
they eat in wet markets and whatnot, even if that's
not exactly where it actually came from.

Speaker 2 (51:55):
Not important.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
This time, a roasted duck that really looked a whole
lot like a pigeon turned out to actually be a pigeon.

Speaker 2 (52:02):
That gets you in a lot of trouble.

Speaker 1 (52:04):
There are also social media posts of the cooked product
that definitely does not look like a duck, and I
don't even know why I find this funny. I would
definitely not eat in a whole lot of restaurants throughout China.
One last story that I thought was interesting, and I
have a little bit of audio for this one too.
A seventy year old foster mom in Missouri is accused

(52:24):
of potentially not confirmed yet, but potentially trying to trade
a child for a pet monkey.

Speaker 2 (52:31):
This is a real story.

Speaker 1 (52:33):
A prosecutor actually had to comment about this to a
local news station. There's definitely some scary parts and some
seedy parts the potential of this.

Speaker 2 (52:41):
But here's a little bit of that audio.

Speaker 18 (52:43):
We'll have to do some deeper dives into, hopefully their
communications to see if that trade was actually for consideration,
if that was for the purposes of human trafficking, and
we don't know that yet, but it is an allegation
that's out there that we need to look in it.

Speaker 2 (52:58):
I'm glad they're going to take it seriously. Is an allegation.

Speaker 1 (53:00):
The woman's name is Brenda, who's accused of potentially doing this,
wanting to boost her quote exotic animal collection and in
the process maybe trading away a child as a foster mom,
which is disgusting and horrible. I hope this isn't true,
to be entirely honest with you, Because they're saying it's
an alligation and they have to look deeper into it.
I hope the end result is that somehow some part

(53:22):
of this is imagined and not real. Otherwise, it's the
scary thing that people always tell us about that a
lot of people don't believe exists in the world existing again.
One last thing, just quickly, as far as a you know,
quick five go a list of the qualities that you'd
never want to have in a potential mate. We're put
up online on Reddit. And the number one of what

(53:45):
people do not want someone else in their life to be,
you know, a kind of core part of the personality
that you wouldn't want a date or be in a
relationship with is people who talk about their own problems
too much, or are perpetually miserable. People who essentially think
they're a victim all the time in every situation, which
feels like if you follow social media a lot of people,

(54:07):
So good luck to you out there, But that's number
one and what you don't want.

Speaker 2 (55:28):
This is the Dana Show. My name is Greg Collins.

Speaker 1 (55:31):
Filling in a thrill to be with you bunch of
stuff out there to talk about d Lash Dana Lash
Radio great ways to stay connected to her on x
on Twitter. Congressman Nick Lolota put out on social media
about thirty minutes or so ago, that's serving in Congress
has come with some once in a lifetime experiences like
just now, while stationary on a one runway at DCA,

(55:51):
another plane just bumped into our wig. Apparently someone's watching
a little bit too much NASCAR while getting on and
getting behind the controls of an airline an airplane. Thankfully,
everybody's okay, and another representative has been handing out grapes
on the plane. There were several politicians on board this flight.
We're again, nothing really truly bad happened, Just a weird

(56:12):
bump situation that occurred for some reason that we're not
sure about. That's fairly hilarious in my mind, mostly because again,
the you know, significance of this moment in the amount
that they're going to talk about it compared to any
real things that are bad and going on innxiety is
probably way different than what it should be. All of

(56:33):
them are so so grateful to be alive after having
their wing bumped into again something that seems as though
it would be surprising for you to go through I've
but not necessarily death defying, which is what again, I
expect some of them are going to behave as though
that was. I can't get over it, though, and I
already see in the comments section a whole bunch of
political takes here, which I don't even care about, to

(56:54):
be honest, But yeah, a little bump, a little bit
of trying to, you know, draft the plane in front
of you before taking off on a runway.

Speaker 2 (57:02):
I find that hilarious.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
Another thing out there that I saw that I thought
was interesting. This video went viral yesterday. This is a
liberal dude complaining about somebody keying his tesla. Apparently he's
finally now upset with the side of the aisle that
he's so often a big, giant champion of. Here he
is sarcastically congratulating people for keying his car.

Speaker 16 (57:25):
Check it out, guys, somebody keyed the crap out of
my tesla, a car I bought six years ago in
the state of California because I'm concerned about Ryman chain.
But some amazing resistance fighter key the crap out of it,
and that's going to do it. Voting didn't work. But
you know, this defiling the car of a fellow liberal,

(57:45):
that's we did it, guys, we got him.

Speaker 1 (57:48):
How dare you, sir, come after a fellow liberal feels
like part of his you know, thinking there if he
passed a Tesla that he thought was owned by a
dirty conservative and someone had keyed that, he'd probably congratulate them,
I imagine. But I love the indignation in his voice
that you can hear as he's upset that someone defiled
his car from six years ago. It's kind of amazing,

(58:10):
and it demonstrates as silly or simplistically as it does
the craziness of the left, which again always tells you
that they're the good guys, they're the nice people, they're
the lovely individuals in the world.

Speaker 2 (58:21):
We have more.

Speaker 1 (58:22):
Let's do some more of this audio. This is a
liberal complaining about DEI being removed from the workplace that
he's in.

Speaker 19 (58:30):
I just got news today that they're cracking down on differcity,
equity and inclusion within workplaces in Ohio.

Speaker 11 (58:40):
Our workplace was directly affected.

Speaker 2 (58:43):
It's terrible.

Speaker 1 (58:44):
By the way, I have heard a lot of people,
friends of mine, family members, I don't want to necessarily
name the companies, although maybe at some point I will
saying that their employers have taken down DEI as far
as being publicly advertise, but have stated to employees that
they're going to keep following those practices.

Speaker 2 (59:05):
They're just not going to say them out loud.

Speaker 1 (59:07):
What I think is really interesting about that, other than
the fact that it might make a lot of people mad,
because it's still essentially ignoring the idea that hiring someone
based on a race or anything beyond their qualifications for
a job is a bad decision.

Speaker 2 (59:22):
What I think is also.

Speaker 1 (59:22):
Really interesting about that idea is they could have done
this all long, and I've said this, and they probably do.
Obviously we think they do this, and they've been doing
this for a long time. But the problem with the
left is they want the political win for the thing
that they convince you is them being the good guys.
They don't just want to do the thing that might

(59:43):
not actually be good but they claim is good. They
want to trumpet it, they want to scream about it.
They want to make sure that you hear them say
it when they claim to be doing something good that
other people won't do, so that you vote for them.

Speaker 2 (59:56):
It's all political ploy. You know it, and I know it.

Speaker 1 (59:58):
If they just wanted to versify you know, offices throughout
the country, they could have done it without bragging about
it years ago and still would wound up. Still would
have wound up with pushback and people saying it was wrong.
And essentially, you know, hiring people based on something other
than the qualifications is not a smart business practice. But nonetheless,

(01:00:19):
what I love most about this story is that it's
a self inflicted wound and it's one because of an
obsession with wanting to be the person, wanting to be
the person that gets congratulated for doing something that might
not actually be helpful at all.

Speaker 2 (01:00:33):
We have one more I do like this.

Speaker 1 (01:00:35):
This is definitely not a liberal, but this guy went
viral with a hot take in the world that a
lot of people reacted to.

Speaker 2 (01:00:41):
Here we go. If you don't have a uterus, you
don't get an opinion.

Speaker 4 (01:00:44):
How About if you don't own stocks, you don't get
an opinion on the stock market. How About if you
ever actually dealt with tariffs, you don't get to complain
about them. Or if you don't pay taxes because you
don't have a job, you don't get to complain about
investigating where our tax dollars go.

Speaker 2 (01:00:59):
Okay, those are interesting.

Speaker 1 (01:01:00):
If you don't have skin in the game, you're not
allowed to complain across the board. Let's not do it
for just one thing, Let's do it for all things.
I imagine a lot of people are going to say
no and reject that. And again, this goes back to
something I was sort of laughing about or talking about
earlier in the show.

Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
But you can find in the podcast.

Speaker 1 (01:01:18):
Dana's show gets fully podcast every day, even when I
get to sit in for her. But anyway, one thing
that I find very funny is the amount of people
who scream and yell about stuff that have absolutely no
impact on their lives and the moment it might actually
impact you in a negative way, Like the dude who's
Tesla car got keyed. You actually are quite mad about
the thing that you've been a fan of, you've been

(01:01:39):
championing for a long time. All of a sudden you're like,
this actually is terrible because it actually hit your doorstep.
And that obviously is the moment when you actually have
an opinion that's informed, which many people don't have when
they scream and yell about stuff. One other thing out
there that I thought was interesting. This vote happened yesterday.
It might not be the news cycle for a lot

(01:02:01):
of people. And this is probably because of tariffs and
world trade and all that stuff being at the forefront
of a lot of people's minds, or at least media's
mind I imagine you're probably sick of it. Most people
who didn't see the cost of items go up, who
didn't really see, you know, their investments get destroyed after
the market rebounded yesterday. Probably a lot of people don't

(01:02:21):
care about this conversation as much as media does, but
this one, this topic might matter more to you. Congress
voted against two hundred and eight Democratic members against a
bill to require proof of citizenship to vote in our country.
It makes no sense to be against this. The vote
was two eighteen yes to two to eight no. Because

(01:02:42):
Republicans are sensible, and actually four Democrats voted in favor
of this, who are more sensible. There were some people
who did a no vote on both sides. I think
six Republicans and one Democrat, but two hundred and eight
Democrats that said no, we shouldn't have to prove we're
a citizen to vote in an election, and I don't
I'm never going to understand that fight being on that

(01:03:04):
hill and saying that this is important, or that it's
somehow unfair to certain individuals, it's somehow racist, or something else.
I'm not even sure what they claim it to be
sometimes because you can't find facts that back up the opinion.
But just wanting to have actual citizens voting in our election.

(01:03:26):
That should be the baseline of what we require from politicians.
That should be the baseline of what we require from
our government in general. We should want people to actually
have skin in that game before they decide to vote
in it, or yeah, I don't know, be alive, all
the other things you need to be to vote in
an election. It's insane that this becomes a political fight,

(01:03:47):
and that it also is a buried topic of conversation
compared to anything else, because again, the point of this,
very simplistically is to make our elections more secure, which
feels like anything that we discuss where once you take
a step back and think about it and you're not
even told which side is pro and which.

Speaker 2 (01:04:07):
Side is anti this topic.

Speaker 1 (01:04:09):
Not that I think a lot of people wouldn't already
know that, but if you didn't, you'd be like, yeah,
that makes sense, Sure we should do that. It's like
any other common sense thing out there. And yet somehow
it becomes a political talking point or a political thing
for people to argue and disagree about. Simply to argue
and disagree about it. You know what I really think
it is. I'll say one more thing about this, because

(01:04:30):
darn it, we're to hear. Let's dive as deep as
we can into this. I think it's that same DEI stuff,
that's same, whatever the topic may be. Thing of Let's
say I'm a Democrat or a Democratic strategist and I'm
sitting around the table and I'm talking about what's going
to win me an election. And actually, this is really
interesting when you think about the failed candidacy of Kamala

(01:04:53):
Harris and how a lot of the left is now
claiming it's just racism in the United States that was
the problem, when the reaction is that the left wanted
you to vote for Harris because she was a black
woman or because she was you know, fill in the
blank thing, and not because her policies were valuable. If
you remember, during her run for office, which she was

(01:05:14):
never actually you know, elected by the people to try
to be in any of those positions. But during her
run there was a long time period there where we
didn't know her policy on anything before it was copy
and paste Biden policies onto her website. That was a
knock on her that we didn't know what she stood
for or what she actually, you know, was in support of,
because some of it flew in the face of what

(01:05:36):
she would say in the past, and some of it
she was just refusing to give us her position on
certain things. That is an organization that believes you'll vote
regardless of what the ideas are and more about the
subject itself or anything else. When you look at DEI,
when you look at this other stuff, or you know,
voting and making sure that someone's a citizen. Essentially that

(01:05:58):
group of people, those people brain storming on the left.
The consultants are saying out loud that we have to
spin this topic to somehow be defending these groups in
society that we hope overwhelmingly vote for us, these demographics
that we're going for. So we have to turn something
that's not about race, not about sex, not about whatever,

(01:06:19):
into something that is or at least convince you it's
something that is so that we're telling you we're fighting
for you, and at the same time we're misusing and
abusing it and trying to get dead people to vote
in elections. It's amazing and it's crazy, and if you
took a step back, I assume most people would agree
that this actually does make no sense, and we would

(01:06:39):
much rather do something the way that these conservatives voted
on a topic like making sure you're a citizen to
vote in an election. Sometimes it feels that silly to
just scream out loud the idea and say, how does
anyone disagree with this?

Speaker 2 (01:06:53):
And yet people do.

Speaker 1 (01:06:54):
All right, we'll take a break, we'll have some more
fun in a sec we'll do some Florida Man and
other things. This is Craig Collins filling in on the

All family pharmacy is all of the medications that you
need without anything being manufactured at all or sourced from
China or even India. It's all right here, made in
the USA, which I think is incredibly important, especially if
we're talking about becoming more self sufficient with things like antibiotics,
et cetera, Because that's what all family pharmacy does. You

(01:07:24):
don't have to play by big Pharmer's rules. Remember when
they tried to shut down actual therapeutics and access to
those therapeutics. Remember when they try to bar you from
getting ivermectin and hydroxychloroquin and that you were being told
that you were crazy if you had those. Yeah, but hey,
take this injection. We don't know what it does, but
go ahead and take it. They didn't just dismiss the alternatives,
they crush your ability to get them. All Family Pharmacy

is about access and affordability. It's simple, fast and affordable,
no insurance, no problems, straightforward pricing, online ordering. You can

Speaker 2 (01:08:31):
It's time for Florida Man.

Speaker 1 (01:08:33):
That's right, it's time for Florida Man. My name is
Craig Collins, filling in for Dana. This is the Dana Show,
a Dlash radio great ways to stay connected to her.
A guy at eleven fifteen at night on Monday went
outside in Florida and started firing his gun upward toward
the sky, an inherently stupid thing and actually a dangerous
thing to do. He was celebrating the Gators win in

(01:08:55):
the NCAA National Championship game. So that gets you arrested
in Florida or anywhere else. Police said that not only
was he in trouble, but no one else should do this.
You shouldn't go outside to celebrate anything by just indiscriminately
firing a weapon up in the air. Again, because what
goes up must come down, and oftentimes we see horrific

(01:09:15):
stories that wind up being an aspect of this. This
guy just arrested for being an idiot. No one actually hurt,
so that's good. But Florida Man doing Florida Man's stuff.
This story is insane. I feel like there's so many
pieces to this, I should do it slowly. Cops arrested Daniel,
forty nine years old. He was publicly intoxicated, which is

(01:09:38):
the least of his issues as far as the virality
of this story. He was at an Applebee's inside the
parking lot a lot in Clearwater, Florida. And then here's
the rough part, or the extra rough part of his story.
The drunk man was wearing a pink thong, fake breasts
and a pink wig. Reasons undetermined as to why he

(01:09:58):
was doing that, but the dude was drunk and yelling
at people inside an Applebee's parking lot.

Speaker 2 (01:10:05):
I can't get over this one.

Speaker 1 (01:10:06):
I genuinely will ask you and try to fathom in
your brain for a second what you do if you're
in Florida, in clear Water and you're, for some reason
choosing to dine in an Applebee's on that evening. No
offense as an Italian to a very large chain out there,
but not exactly at the top of my list for
places I'd go unless they're an advertiser. Then they're my
favorite thing I've ever had in my life. I love

(01:10:29):
the never ending bread sticks. I will be bought very
easily by advertisers, but nonetheless you're pulling in. Maybe you're
even on vacation in Florida and you see Daniel forty
nine years old, rocking a pink thong and nothing else,
fake boobs and then the pink wig, and you think
to yourself, Ah, I'm going to a different location. I'm

(01:10:50):
not going to stay here. He has also gone viral
in his Orange jail outfit, which after he was arrested,
they made him put on instead of the other thing.
He's charged with disorderly intoxication. I booked on a few
other issues in county jail. It's a misdemeanor charges likely
to go his way and probably something that he'll never
live down. I was going to say with his friends,

(01:11:13):
but I'm not sure if Daniel has any and I'm
not trying to be mean. I'm just guessing that that
might not be the case. People might not hang with
Daniel on the regular. But this is the kind of
thing that I can't imagine if he was blindly intoxicated
so he doesn't remember this, and if this isn't the
way he normally behaves, how you even understand this story?

Speaker 2 (01:11:32):
When you sober up, I was doing what again.

Speaker 1 (01:11:35):
But I imagine this is a typical night out for
mister Daniel, at least I'm assuming so. But a ridiculous story,
one of my favorite and the most ridiculous Florida stories
I've seen in a while.

Speaker 2 (01:11:46):
And then finally, I have a piece of audio I
want to play.

Speaker 1 (01:11:49):
This is Channel eight NBC News, who are actually always
on your side in Florida in Tallahassee, talking about something
that happened in Tampa. I don't care about penguins visiting
a state house. I don't need to break bad against
it or you know, be overly positive about it. What
I am amused by is how tongue in cheek you

(01:12:11):
have to be is local news or local news anchors
to say things like this into a camera and not
hate your job.

Speaker 2 (01:12:18):
But here we go at five your side, the animals.

Speaker 7 (01:12:22):
What I'm at work is my number one priority.

Speaker 2 (01:12:24):
It's all hands on deck, and that's our entire facility.
That's a penguin.

Speaker 9 (01:12:30):
There was an overwhelming amount of cuteness at the state
Capitol today.

Speaker 2 (01:12:33):
Penguins from right here in Tampa took a trip up to.

Speaker 9 (01:12:35):
Tallahassee to talk politics with lawmakers, meaning every one.

Speaker 2 (01:12:38):
I'm Josh Benson, Hey, Josh.

Speaker 7 (01:12:39):
Rely, thank you for jowing us the Florida Aquarium alongside
their tuxedo to the Bowers are asking for critical funding.

Speaker 1 (01:12:46):
I hate these stupid little news puns that happen all
the time with these newscasts, the overwhelming amount of cuteness
and the tuxedo wearing representatives that went in front of
the Capitol Building for the penguins. These are the things
that again would make me hate to be, say a
news anchor at a local news station. But you're just
reading it. You didn't write it, and darn it. The

(01:13:06):
paycheck is good, then that's fine. I'll go ahead and
read anything. But that would make me cringe, and I
imagine made a lot of other people. All Right, quick break,
a lot coming up. Craig Collins filling in on the

Burner gun by r Ina is the non firearm firearm
and it's a great way to help diversify your defense array,
your weapons array, and it shoots chemical irritant projectiles that
can deter threats from up to fifty feet away. And
there's no waiting period, there's no gun freeze. They doesn't

(01:13:39):
care about gun free zone. Signed it doesn't care about
any of that stuff. And it's an effective determent because,
like I said, you're able to still protect yourself. You know,
I get it that I always carry, and I always
I have no problem using lethal force. And I don't
live in an area that tells me I can't carry,
or has a bunch of buildings that tell me I
can't go in and can't carry. But I do have
friends who live in places like this. This has been

(01:14:00):
a godsend for them because they can still protect themselves.
Of course, you know it's still a high crime area
really as these where they have the strongest gum laws,
and this is where burna loag comes into play. So
they're able to defend themselves without violating any of those
municipal restrictions. And like I said, no winning period, no
background check, They ship it right to your front door.
The Berna SD that's the best selling model. They have others,

(01:14:21):
but that's the one everybody I know has been getting.
And you can choose your color, your projectiles, accessories, everything.

can get ten percent off your purchase by r Ina

she's everywhere, YouTube, Rumble, all over the stuff, producer Steven

You can find her anywhere. Tariffs is a big conversation.

(01:15:00):
A lot of people are discussing the ninety day pause
that President Trump put out yesterday, the rebound in the
stock market that seemed very valuable to anyone complaining that
this was already a problem. One of the other interesting
parts of this, and Hakeem Jeffries annoying democrats certainly an
annoying democrat. I was out there saying that inflation is

(01:15:21):
getting worse just yesterday, and then CNN this morning reported
something just a little bit different, just a tad different
than what he was saying, consumer.

Speaker 3 (01:15:31):
Prices month over month.

Speaker 12 (01:15:32):
So this was actually a drop of point one percent,
negative point one percent. That's the first time we've seen
that since COVID. Year over year, the annual inflation rate
was at two point four percent. This was also better
than expected and a six month low, moving in the
right direction.

Speaker 2 (01:15:50):
Wait a minute, what are you saying.

Speaker 1 (01:15:51):
You're saying that right now as of today, and you're CNN,
so you're begrudgingly telling us this that inflation has actually
gone down for the first time in a long time,
and then as far as a six month period, we're
seeing an all time low for some of these numbers.
So things are going in the right direction. So if
the actual human beings in our society judge based on

(01:16:12):
their human experience and not based on what news media
or politicians are telling them, then things are improving.

Speaker 2 (01:16:19):
How dare you, sir? How could that possibly be true?

Speaker 1 (01:16:22):
Obviously I believe it was, and I loved that it was,
But Jeffries was saying just yesterday that it's completely not
the case. He also said this in response to another
question that went very viral. Because the saddest part, and
I will actually say that this is the saddest part.
It's also the part that might make you the most
angry about politics. But the saddest thing is how often

(01:16:44):
people on certain sides of the political aisle a flip
flop based on who's in charge and not what's best
for the world or best for our country. This is
another one of those moments where a Keem Jeffries can
actually say out loud, we need to secure the border
now that there's a president in charge who's doing that,
and it's not somehow imagined as a political win to

(01:17:06):
pretend as though not doing it is good. Most Americans
would like to see this done. Here's the back and forth.

Speaker 20 (01:17:11):
Republicans are proposing new spending for border security funding and
this forthcoming budget bill. Is that something that your conference
will support that sort of security investment.

Speaker 17 (01:17:21):
We have to look at the particulars we believe that
we need to secure the border. Make sure yeah, it
is safe and strong, Okay, that the rule of law
consistent with America.

Speaker 2 (01:17:34):
He's actually swallowing his words.

Speaker 1 (01:17:36):
You can tell with how much he's pausing there that
he can't believe that he's saying everything.

Speaker 2 (01:17:40):
That was a Republican talking point just a couple.

Speaker 1 (01:17:42):
Of years ago before society resoundingly rejected the democratic version of.

Speaker 17 (01:17:47):
This country of a nation of laws.

Speaker 2 (01:17:50):
Correct, we are.

Speaker 17 (01:17:50):
Fully and completely implemented at the border.

Speaker 2 (01:17:53):
All this is true.

Speaker 17 (01:17:54):
We believe we have a broken immigration system and we
need to do fix it, we do, and a comprehensive
and in a biprotestant way.

Speaker 2 (01:18:00):
Sure, all that's true.

Speaker 1 (01:18:01):
This is not something you or anyone was saying just
a short time ago. You're always capable of flip flopping
whenever you see the grass is greener over here. It's
the status or most annoying part of politics. And actually,
there's this viral video I'm gonna go ahead and play it.
I wasn't going to play it, but I will of
President Barack Obama talking about tariffs on China specifically and

(01:18:24):
how valuable they are. And what's funny about this, and
I think it first went viral at the very beginning
of this month, is all the criticism of Trump and
his war against China and the tariffs that are increasing
there while he's putting a pause or stopping things everywhere else,
just because of how often the other side actually agrees

(01:18:44):
with you but pretends not to and empowers people who
vote for them to believe that it's actually evil to
not agree with them. That's what democrats and that's what
the left preaches all the time, is you have to
hate the voters on the right for thinking that thing
that they thought just a few years ago, or they
think when they're actually being honest behind closed doors.

Speaker 5 (01:19:06):
We had a tire case in which they were flooding
US with cheap domestic tires or cheap Chinese tires, and
we put a stop to it and as a consequence,
saved jobs throughout America.

Speaker 2 (01:19:18):
How'd you do that?

Speaker 5 (01:19:19):
I have to say that Govern Romney criticized me for
being too tough in that tire case, said this wouldn't
be good for American workers, and then it would be protectionists.
But I tell you those workers don't feel that way.
They feel as if they had finally an administration who
was going to take this issue.

Speaker 1 (01:19:35):
Seria, who was actually going to protect them by imposing
tariffs on China to make their very cheap tires not
cheap for the American people, so we don't buy them.
How crazy of an idea to try to fight that
power and fight a place that you know constantly steals
IP and all other things from US, refuses to let
us sue company companies in their country, Well, they sue

(01:19:55):
companies in our country, et cetera, et cetera. All the
ways that trade is profound unfair, not just between the
United States and China, but China and everyone. So I'll
say this again before I move on. Anyone that's afraid
that all of these other countries will rush toward China
and away from us profoundly misunderstands how much of the

(01:20:16):
world knows that China trades unfairly to begin with. And
as long as we don't ever go to their level
of unfair and all of our tariffs still aren't their
level of unfair, will be fine, and people will work
with us and want to work with us, especially after
we pause most of those tariffs and tell you that
the door is open to a more fair trade agreement

(01:20:36):
between US and you, something that China will never do.
All Right, one last thing I do want to play this.
I thought this was interesting Elon Musk. This morning, I
sat down and told a bunch of politicians how great
of a job a doze is doing at saving us money.
They also tweeted last night that they found a bunch
of ridiculous fraud in the world of unemployment claims. Unemployment

(01:20:59):
claims being made by people over the age of one
hundred and fifteen, or between the ages of one and five,
in some cases, people that aren't even born yet. One
guy that is born in twenty one fifty four who
got tens of thousands of dollars of unemployment money. It's
got to be tough to be a time traveler from
the future trying to get a gig and being had
of work. But here's Musk talking about how good of

(01:21:21):
a job DOGE is doing a saving us money.

Speaker 19 (01:21:24):
Well, thanks to your fantastic leadership, this amazing cabinet, and
the very talented Dose team, I'm excited to announce that
we anticipate savings in FY twenty six from reduction of
waste and fraud by one hundred and fifty billion dollars.

Speaker 8 (01:21:38):
And nice, I.

Speaker 19 (01:21:39):
Mean, and some of it is just absurd, like people
getting unemployment insurance who haven't been born yet. I mean,
I think anyone can appreciate whether it I mean, come on,
I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:21:49):
Come on, is right, whether you're a Democrat, whether you're
a Republican is what he was going to say there, or
just in general people. And I can't believe that this
is a fight too, that you have individuals in your
life who watch news twenty four to seven on a
certain side of the political aisle and then tell you
that Dose is bad even though it's saving waste, fraud,
and abuse, which used to be a bipartisan thing that

(01:22:11):
most people wanted to see. By the way, just a
side thing here. It amused me quite a bit. It
was released yesterday by the White House. It is a
fact sheet and you can look it up yourself if
you want to. The headline, President Donald J. Trump makes
America's showers great again. This is awesome.

Speaker 2 (01:22:29):
You know what's funny about these things?

Speaker 1 (01:22:31):
Actually, whether it's light bulbs, whatever the issue might be,
when Trump stands strongly on one side of these sorts
of issues, it amuses me because so many Americans would
be like, yeah, I want that.

Speaker 2 (01:22:44):
There's nothing wrong with that. Today, President Donald J.

Speaker 1 (01:22:47):
Trump, this is within the fact sheet itself, sign an
executive order to end the Obama Biden war on water
pressure and make America's showers great again. The order directs
the Secretary of Energy to immediately rescind the the overly
complicated federal rule that defined showerhead. Under Obama and Biden
twice in the last twelve years, those administrations put out

(01:23:07):
massive regulations defining the word showerhead. The Biden definition was
a staggering thirteen thousand words the Oxford English Dictionary, by contrast,
define showerhead in one short sentence. Oh, the sarcasm of
this is so great. President Trump is restoring sanity to
at least one small part of the federal regulations, returning

(01:23:29):
to the straightforward meaning of showerhead from the nineteen ninety
two Energy Law, which sets a simple two point five
gallons per minute standard for showers. How stupid is this
that there's a debate or argument or an executive action
that needs to be taken to give you the ability
to have the right amount of water pressure in your
home in your shower. It's hilarious in part and also

(01:23:52):
probably infuriating if you want to be mad about this,
which a lot of people probably are. But these are
the things that amuse me so much. Again, when President
Trump is out there fighting for you to have a
certain light bulb or certain ability to buy appliances that
work a certain way, or even just a showerhead that
works a certain way, it's so funny. This has become

(01:24:14):
a political thing and a talking point, and it goes
back to something I think we've been discussing a lot
today that Democrats just want a political win. They don't
care about the actual thing they're winning at. They just
want to convince you that they're politically winning. They're saving
the environment by preventing you from having water pressure to
a degree that you want it to be, which is insane,

(01:24:36):
by the way, and stupid and the kind of fight
that doesn't need to happen in the world of our government.
And most people believe that. Darn it, it's a thing
that's out there in the world, and why don't we
talk about it. Oh, by the way, one last quick
thing before I take a break. I do like this
quite a bit too. Goldman Sachs no longer predicting a
recession after all the decision making by this administration, ninety

(01:24:57):
day pause on his Liberation Day, tariffs, etc. Apparently the
likelihood of a recession now gone from one of the
biggest investment giants in our society, which seems like a
good thing too. By the way, you almost might call
it a political win if you were being fair and
not overly one sided, and how you talk about any
of this stuff. But all right, on that note, we'll
take a break. A lot coming up. Craig Collins filling

in New York City is coming up with a one
of a kind topping. According to them, Apparently they're getting
in on the quote caviar craze. I don't know that
this is real, but some people seem to think it is,

(01:26:41):
at least on social media. One Pizza Hut location in
New York City is going to put fake caviar on
top of your Pizza Hut pizza and charge you a
stupid amount of money for it, although not as much
as what caviar actually would cause this is dumb. I've
never wanted caviar and pizza together. I've actually never had caviar,
and I'm fine never having it in my life.

Speaker 2 (01:27:02):
I've been offered it. I'm good on that whole thing.

Speaker 1 (01:27:05):
But even more than that, what I find hilarious about
this is Pizza Hut, of all places, is trying to
get bored and get involved and still involving.

The Pizza Hut pizza.

Speaker 1 (01:27:13):
I guess you could have just served your fake caviar
on the side if you want to, But nah, baby,
let's make something worse than putting pineapple on pizza. Let's
throw full on fake caviar on there and see how
people go with that. A restaurant in Thailand has been
all over the news recently because of a weird way
that they're offering a discount to customers that's making a

(01:27:34):
lot of people quite upset. Essentially, they have this giant
structure in front of their restaurant with these reduction or
reducing in size kind of holes, and you have to
squeeze through one, and the smaller hole you can get
your body through, the bigger discount you get on your food.
A very skinny dude in Thailand went viral for fitting

(01:27:54):
through the smallest hole, the twenty percent off hole. I
have a little bit of audio of this, as weird
as as it is, is a story. We also have
social media audio, because of course we do. Why wouldn't
we have a dude who successfully gets the big discount?

Speaker 2 (01:28:08):
Do you try to?

Speaker 20 (01:28:09):
I told him omeal is that your friend?

Speaker 3 (01:28:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 20 (01:28:11):
I told them you need some done?

Speaker 15 (01:28:17):
Can you do ten o' time?

Speaker 3 (01:28:19):
He's doing it? What if you get snip?

Speaker 14 (01:28:21):
Are good?

Speaker 19 (01:28:24):
You're good for five?

Speaker 1 (01:28:24):
She already said you're good for five you try to
get through the twenty percent discount.

Speaker 2 (01:28:29):
One dude pretty much got through.

Speaker 3 (01:28:30):
Though.

Speaker 1 (01:28:31):
So stupid this whole thing, and so stupid as far
as a viral thing. But I will tell you, at
least my opinion of it, if you're skinny enough to
get through the very small vertical bars they create the
twenty percent discount, you're probably not going to eat enough
to harm the restaurant. You're probably not consuming enough of
their food to make it an issue that they only
charged you twenty percent of what they charge other people.

(01:28:51):
But still not something I'm advocating for Beyond that. Also,
I thought this.

Speaker 2 (01:28:55):
Was an interesting story.

Speaker 1 (01:28:57):
Scientists have demonstrated that a coffee nap is more beneficial
than coffee or a nap by itself. What's a coffee napp,
you might be asking yourself after hearing it on the radio.
It's exactly what you think it is. It's drinking a
cup of coffee and then immediately trying to go to
sleep for fifteen twenty minutes at say about two o'clock
or so, doing both things, allowing for the coffee to

(01:29:19):
go through your system. Well, you're passed out. If you
can actually pass out right after drinking a cup of coffee.
That helps you because by the time you wake up
from your nap, the energy the caffeine is hitting you,
so you have more energy the rest of the day,
at least according to science. I feel bad for all
the people who are going to attempt a coffee nap
at their desk, get a giant cup of coffee, go
ahead and chug it, and then try to fall asleep

(01:29:41):
for twenty minutes and see if that makes things better
for them. But science is saying it would. And whyever
would we doubt science. It's not like they've done us
wrong before one last thing. I thought this was insane,
And this story is being reported a few places. I
think gizmoto dot com is one of the places putting
out information about it. But police in the UK are

(01:30:01):
proud of a brand new AI algorithm they've built that
potentially figures out who murderers are in advance. This is
a Minority Report movie style type of thing, but they're
going to predict who is most likely to harm people
and use the tool as a murder protection mechanism to

(01:30:22):
prevent people from harming each other by accusing you of
something you haven't done yet. A freedom of information request
created some transparency based on this report, and it is insane,
like I said, but their tool they think is going
to benefit and be valuable. And I'm sure other places
that use stuff like this don't even tell us about it.
But it's essentially very similar to the precognition stuff that

(01:30:45):
existed in Minority report.

Speaker 2 (01:30:47):
All over the internet being complained about.

Speaker 1 (01:30:49):
I wonder if politically one side will be more likely
to harm you than another's side. We'll see how that goes.

of stuff to talk about d Lash, Dana Lash Radio,
on x on Twitter are great ways to stay connected
to her and everything that she's up to and everything
that she's talking about. I thought this was interesting and
I'll get to it in a second. The US Justice
Department has barred its attorneys from participating in American Bar

(01:31:38):
Association events.

Speaker 2 (01:31:39):
There's a reason why for this.

Speaker 1 (01:31:40):
I can describe it in greater detail, but before I
do that, I do want to play a couple little clips.
And I know tariffs is mostly a conversation that's in
one ear and out the other for many Americans right now.
But the Press Secretary for the White House, Carolyn Levitt,
is awesome and occasionally does things in front of the
press toward the press that make me stand up and go.

Speaker 2 (01:32:02):
That was amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:32:04):
This was one of those moments where she ridiculed people
for not understanding the art of the deal, something that
definitely is benefiting President Trump right now after he rescinded
most of the tariffs or at least decrease them on
the majority of countries within our world, as he's getting
a lot of countries calling us off the hook to
create new trade deals that would benefit America more and

(01:32:25):
benefit Americans quite a bit.

Speaker 2 (01:32:27):
Here we go.

Speaker 14 (01:32:28):
So in the media clearly missed the art of the deal.
You clearly failed to see what President Trump is doing here.
You tried to say that the rest of the world
would be moved closer to China, and in fact, we've
seen the opposite effect. The entire world is calling the
United States of America, not China, because they need our markets,
they need our consumers, and they need this president in the.

Speaker 2 (01:32:49):
Oval Office to talk to them.

Speaker 14 (01:32:51):
And that's exactly why more than seventy five countries have called.
Because the United States of America is the best place
in the world to do business. And as the President
has shown, great cars, as a secretary has said, and
choosing to retaliate against China even.

Speaker 1 (01:33:03):
Higher, yeah, and actually go after people who treat us
unfairly and demonstrate a willingness to do all that stuff.
It's pretty amazing. She also said that when you punch,
we punch back harder.

Speaker 2 (01:33:13):
Baby.

Speaker 14 (01:33:14):
As you all know, the President just put out a
statement announcing an additional tariff on China. The tariff on
China will now go up to one hundred and twenty
five percent because China imprudently decided to retaliate against the
United States. And as I said at the podium yesterday,
when you punch at the United States of America, President
Trump is going to punch back harder.

Speaker 1 (01:33:32):
And I love that, And actually, I think that's something
that makes a lot of people proud as Americans, is
when we're willing to use our might, whatever that might
be economic might, military might, anything to demonstrate that we're
not to be messed with. The whole quote that you
do this around and you find out President Trump is
demonstrating that if you mess with us, we mess back harder.

(01:33:55):
And I think that's something that's been missing in politics
for quite a bit. Whether it's on the right or left,
I don't care. But let's get to this other thing.
The US Justice Department going after the American Bar Association.
In a release yesterday, US Deputy Attorney a General Todd
Blanche said, I think this is actually a memo that

(01:34:15):
Reuter's and other police places, you know, published that there
have been several activist causes that have been taken up
by this organization and that the United States and at
least our Justice Department, can't simply stand and watch as
these things happen. One of the examples used was the
American Bar Association suing to block Trump from cutting funding

(01:34:38):
to foreign countries and foreign aid organizations. The Department is
actively litigating against the ABA, yet the Department continues to
expend taxpayer dollars on ABA events that's not going to
happen anymore. What's interesting about this topic, beyond maybe the
you know, details, the fine details of it that may
or may not actually be important to you, is the

(01:35:01):
idea that every time President Trump and his administration does
something to go after one of the i'd say business
as usual practices in Washington, d c. Inevitably, the coverage
in a lot of places is that he's going after
his political enemies, or he's fighting a fight that's you know,
about his personal vendettas and not necessarily in the benefit

(01:35:24):
of the country itself. What's interesting about that, though, is
it doesn't make any sense for our government to spend
money and you know, provide support to organizations that actively
sue us. It doesn't make sense to do that. And
all these behind closed doors handshake agreements where money bounces
from here to there, whether that money eventually goes to

(01:35:47):
Ukraine and comes back somehow, whatever it might be, these
scenarios are things that you want to upend. And there's
several different examples of this actually happening in our society
right now. And how good that is for us, and
how much of this waste, fraud abuse winds up being
outed simply by upending some of these systems. Yet another

(01:36:07):
thing that is getting complained about ad nauseum on television
and on certain you know, far left leaning organizations that
have no real need to tell you constantly that these
are the problems you need to focus on because you
don't care. And by the way, as inflation is actually
going down, however small amount it is, I think it's

(01:36:30):
zero point one percent that inflation decreased a month over
month for the first time since COVID, you still have
a lot of democratic politicians out there telling you that
things are simply getting worse. Things are getting worse because
of their policies and trying to reverse them, like a
war on energy. And I have some CNN audio that'll
back this up, But first I want to play Jasmine Crockett,

(01:36:51):
a representative who often says crazy stuff into a microphone,
talking about how terrible all this is for you, and
how it's tied somehow to deportations, which makes no.

Speaker 2 (01:37:02):
Sense in realm.

Speaker 21 (01:37:04):
So I am telling you that this is a failed thing,
but we've got to do better to connect the dots
and let people know the reason you can't afford a
home is because of these failled immigration policies. The reason
you're not going to be able to afford your food
is because of these filled immigration policies. And the same
can go for the hospitality industries, where we have so
many of those in the hospitality industry that are saying

(01:37:26):
they do not have the workers that they need.

Speaker 1 (01:37:28):
Right now, she's continuing to advocate for people that are
illegally in this country to make wages below minimum wage
so that companies can afford to do business at the
prices they're doing business at.

Speaker 2 (01:37:40):
I don't know how they say this out loud.

Speaker 1 (01:37:42):
I genuinely don't know how the woke side of the
aisle is totally fine with this idea. I would love
to have one of these democratic politicians sit in a
room with the individuals that they're advocating for who don't
have enough money to pay bills and don't have the
right to be in this country and shouldn't be here
in the first place. I agree with all that, but

(01:38:03):
nonetheless like sit in a room with these people and
be like, thank you so much for being taken advantage
of by our country and the businesses who are willing
to hire you and not give you, you know, livable
wages because it makes it better for the rest of us,
and then walk out of that room and also still
think she's like woke and justice warrior for the people.

Speaker 2 (01:38:22):
It's literally insane.

Speaker 1 (01:38:24):
And again, I'm not advocating for people who are here
illegally to get more money. I'm actually advocating for people
to only be allowed in our country with legal status
so that they have the ability to get money, you know,
akin to what anyone else that has rights can get
money at that certain standard, that very simplistic minimum wage standard.

Speaker 2 (01:38:44):
It's it's just insane.

Speaker 1 (01:38:46):
You know what it actually feels like to me when
I hear Democrats make that argument, and Pelosi has made it,
a bunch of them have made it is they're sitting
in a room somewhere and they're saying to themselves, we
have to be on a certain side of this topic.
Have to be We can't possibly go to the other side,
the side that the Republicans are on and the American
people appear to be on. We have to find a

(01:39:08):
way to oppose it because we don't want the people
that we want to illegally vote in this country to
be sent out of this country. We want them to
keep voting for our side of the aisle. So they
come up with this as the best possible way to
advocate their side or their position that stuff will get
more expensive if people are treated fairly, which is again

(01:39:29):
so counter to everything else they preach about being And
this should be one of the best proofs to most
Americans that what they preach about and what they actually
do behind closed doors are profoundly different and do not
help or benefit you at all.

Speaker 2 (01:39:44):
And it's just insane, by the way.

Speaker 1 (01:39:47):
As I talk about like overly leftist ideas and people
on a certain side of the aisle, I think what
Bee Goldberg has gone viral again and the ladies of
the view who often go viral, this time about saying
and that everybody in America needs to pay more taxes,
and not just the wealthy, which is typically the Democratic
point on this, but everybody. You got to kick in

(01:40:08):
some more money to the government, because how dare you
not give them enough to waste it on things they
shouldn't be spending it on.

Speaker 22 (01:40:14):
It's very important to remind people that now is the
time for each and every one of us to suck
it up and make sure that we know what we
need to take care of. If you're in an area
where the school district is losing, then you got to
pay a little more taxes and not help the schools out.
If you're finding that your libraries are falling apart, you
have to give more.

Speaker 2 (01:40:36):
You got to pay more money.

Speaker 1 (01:40:37):
You got to do more to make them succeed, even
if they're not succeeding at all for you. And even
if some of these schools are teaching your kids things
you don't want them to teach them. Darn it, that
doesn't matter. You got a pony up, baby. You got
to give more money. Will be Goldberg, who's worth millions
of dollars, not necessarily willing to do that herself, but
she's going to tell everyone else to do it. I

(01:40:57):
just find that amazing how often we see that too.
And one last time, I'll say this not to overtalk
the tariff point, which is getting you know, a lot
of publicity, and probably a lot of people are ignoring
the topic more than anything else. There was an interview
this did happen on a podcast. I think it was
one of the you know younger targeting. I think it

(01:41:18):
happened on Rogan and it happened on a couple other
ones where Trump said that if you found a way
to tariff the rest of the world significantly, you might
be able to do away with federal income tax entirely
on the American people.

Speaker 2 (01:41:31):
In this country.

Speaker 1 (01:41:32):
You might be able to have no taxes, which would
be resoundingly popular with the American people to not have
to do something over the next five days if you
haven't done it already, that so many people will be
doing filing and paying your taxes. And as Whoopee said,
just give an extra Just go ahead and throw an
extra few thousand on the pile for Uncle Sam, because
he's going to waste that money and he's not going

(01:41:52):
to use it.

Speaker 2 (01:41:52):
Right. What an insane take.

Speaker 1 (01:41:54):
But nonetheless, I love every part of this and every
you know, back and forth talking point that exists here,
because most Americans will sit there and think, nah, I'm
not going to do that, and yet the high and
mighty in the world of certain liberal politics will assume
what they said would be widely popular even though it's
absolutely not. And also, as Doge continues to find ways

(01:42:17):
for us to stop wasting money makes us even less
likely to want to send money to people. Essentially, I'd
like a refund on all the money I've given you
so far, because you've been using it wrong and I knew.

Speaker 2 (01:42:28):
That all along.

Speaker 1 (01:42:28):
All right, quick break, A little bit more coming up.

Stephen does an incredible job of keeping a bunch of
that digital stuff out there to check it out and

(01:43:06):
the podcast too.

Speaker 16 (01:43:07):
All right.

Speaker 1 (01:43:07):
Some other quick things that I found that didn't make
the show until the end of the show doesn't mean
they're less.

Speaker 2 (01:43:13):
It just means that we didn't talk about them.

Speaker 1 (01:43:15):
A tourists went to jail over wandering a little too
close to the famed Yellowstone attraction. That would be the
Old Faithful Geysers that exists there. This is something you
should not wander close to. A law requires foot travel
in all thermal areas and within the Yellowstone Canyon between
the Upper Falls and Inspiration Point, to be marked by

(01:43:36):
the different locations you see around you. You're not supposed
to break those rules. If you see boardwalks and trails
that demonstrate don't go beyond this point, don't just ignore that.
A forty four year old Seattle woman decided she was
above this law and got in trouble for it. It's
fifteen days behind bars and up to two hundred dollars
in fines if you do something you shouldn't do at

(01:43:58):
Yellowstone National Park. Kind of a big deal as far
as the story goes. Another person, influencer, whatever you want
to call them, also had a negative experience recently. This woman,
a Brazilian model named Ravenna, got frost bite. I'm going
to tell you the story. I want to tell you

(01:44:18):
the story on her butt. She was proud of a
certain body part and she decided to do a photo
shoot in the snow in a frigid part of Spain,
and because her well bottom was exposed for too long
to that weather, the twenty four year old wound up
with frostbite and a nineteen thousand dollars operation because of

(01:44:40):
the pain that occurred there. The lesson being that it's
not worth the clicks, no matter how much you think
it could be worth the clicks, it is in fact
not and you don't need to stand outside in thong
underwear in the freezing cold and get frostbite on your butt.

Speaker 2 (01:44:54):
She did say that it was numb, she couldn't sit down.
I don't know. I find this so funny.

Speaker 1 (01:44:59):
I find it fun because every part of her should
have told her this was a bad idea well it
was happening, but it didn't because she wanted people in
social media to follow her account, which they probably will,
and honestly, in reporting this story, I might have pushed
more people toward her account, and I'm fine with that.
I just hope for her medical safety she makes better
decisions in the future. And actually another story, if I'm

(01:45:22):
mentioning medical safety real quick, there is a specific kind
of tostitos freeedo lays potato chips that have been recalled,
and recently the recall has been up to the highest
level that exists in the country. The Tostitos Cantina traditional
yellow corn tortilla chip was I guess lifted to the

(01:45:43):
state of recall that says if you consume it, you
could die, So please don't eat this product. It's the
thirteen ounce bag one created. As I said around the
beginning of March, don't eat it, don't consume it, definitely
throw it out and door return it to whatever store
for the recall. Thirteen states part of this recall. I

(01:46:04):
don't see many of these warnings out there involving a
potato chip that they're claiming or I guess, a corn
tortilla chip that could cause death. The states involved, if
you're wondering, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia. Don't eat the

(01:46:26):
cantina yellow tortilla chip because it could actually kill you.

Speaker 2 (01:46:30):
That's what the warning says.

Speaker 1 (01:46:31):
And that's uniquely terrifying for anyone out there that has
this in their cupboard. I imagine one last story for
you as far as topics that I meant to get
to but didn't till the end of the show.

Speaker 2 (01:46:42):
Here.

Speaker 1 (01:46:44):
It is highly recommended, at least according to social media
and a few healthcare providers, to floss your brain occasionally.
It's not what you think. You're not going to try
to stick anything in between your ears. Flossing your brain
actually just means cleansing your mind by doing something that
has nothing to do with anything that takes mental effort,

(01:47:06):
whether it's sit down and watch a dumb movie. I
like the Fast and Furious movies. My friends all think
that those movies have no plot, and that's the point.

Speaker 2 (01:47:14):
Baby.

Speaker 1 (01:47:15):
I love to see the cars explode and go fast
and the death defying stunts that happen that make no
sense in the world of real life, and then eventually
Vin Diesel and the family solve everything at the end
of Sin movie, one of many examples. But you should
floss your brain at least once a day. This could
even be just white noise or their types of audio
you play. Will you try to relax, but just do

(01:47:37):
something that requires no mental energy whatsoever. Relaxed, sleep, unwind, etc.
All highly suggested as things to do. That will give
you short term and long term benefits in your brain. Baby,
So floss your mind is something that they're saying both
like said on social media and then also some of
the experts are claiming this one's actually true.

Speaker 2 (01:47:59):
So I'll do it. I hope you do it too.

Speaker 1 (01:48:01):
Have a great day. Data back tomorrow. Craig Collins filling
in on the Data Show.
