Speaker 1 (00:00):
Attorney General Pam Bondi is going to host President Trump

(00:03):
today at the Department of Justice. How cool is that
on a Friday. Huh, welcome to the show. Glad you're
here today. Eight five five, eight through nine to twelve ten.
That's my number. Never mind, this is the Data show.
It's me Rich It's the only in for data force
a habit. What can I say. It's been a long week,
but it's me Rich in for Data today on a Friday.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
That is my number.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
If you want to call my show later, but don't
call it now, okay, because I'm doing this show. But
it's a busy day.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
So the President's going to go to the Apartment of Justice.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
The FBI director Cash Bettel came out earlier today and
said the swatting incidents against conservatives have to stop. This
came after a good friend of mine, his name is
Sean Farish and Joe Paggs. You know Joe Paggs too,
great guy. They were both swatted, along with a number
of other conservative influencers in the last twenty four forty

(00:52):
eight hours.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
It's insane.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
So Cash Betel is now coming out and saying that
we've got to do something about this and Senator Mike Lee,
who I just think the world of just he's the best.
I mean, the guy is a Star Wars constitutionalist. He
came out and he said that you we should we
should charge these people with attempted murder. We should, we should,
we should charge these guys with attempted murder for what

(01:16):
they're doing here. And that's exactly right, because let me
tell you what swatting is. And I don't know if
the Attorney General is going to address this today or not.
With the president. They have a lot to talk about,
the Epstein files, the JFK files, the the the idiots
who are out there burning down Tesla dealerships. They got
a lot to chat about. And the President is going
to give remarks today. So I don't have a preview

(01:37):
into what the President's going to say, but this is
a kind of a preview of maybe the kind of
stuff they're going to talk about. So here's Attorney General Pambondi.
This is what she said regarding Tesla. This is cut
twenty five.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
We have people were locking up on that. We have
someone in jail right now from one of the dealerships.

Speaker 4 (01:52):
They threw a.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
Molotov cocktail through a dealership. They're looking it up to
twenty years in prison. So if you're going to touch
a tesla, go to a dealership, do anything, you better
watch out because we're coming after you.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
Good, I mean I think good she'd come after people.
Why would you not?

Speaker 2 (02:08):
You should?

Speaker 1 (02:09):
FBI Director Cash Betel tweeted out the following I want
to address the alarming rise in swatting incidents targeting media figures.
The FBI is aware of this dangerous trend, and my
team and I already taking action to investigate and hold
those responsible accountable.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
This isn't about politics.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Weaponizing law enforcement against any American is not only morally reprehensible,
but also in dangers lives, including those of our officers,
that will not be tolerated. We are fully committed to
working with local law enforcement to crack down on these crimes.
More updates to come. If you don't know what it is,
imagine it like this. Okay, the cops get a phone

(02:47):
call that there's an incredibly dangerous situation at house. Somebody
has a gun, they're threatening suicide, They've shot people, they're
threatening to shoot people.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
Whatever.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
It's an active shooter situation in a private residence. Now,
being the son of a cop and growing up around
cops and knowing a lot of cops, I can tell
you that this means that their adrenaline is going to
go right to a ten. Two scariest moments for a
police officer when they have to pull a car over
on the side of the road because they don't know
what they don't know what they're about to encounter behind
the wheel of car. And when they have to respond

(03:18):
to a situation, a domestic situation where there's a gun
and whether it's a domestic assault situation or something else,
because that's when passions are high, fevers are high, and
things go wrong. These things can go badly wrong. So
in this situation, like what happened to Joe PAGs and
Sean Farish, is that they called up and they said

(03:40):
somebody called up and said there's an active shooter situation
at the house, dead bodies, whatever it is. Cops show
up with long guns, the swat team gets dispatched in
most of these cases, and this has happened to elected officials,
This has happened to people who are media personalities, and
they show up guns blazing, expecting the worst of the worst,
and what happens in out of these situations. Well, the

(04:01):
people that these lunatics are targeting are conservatives, And what.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Do we all have guns?

Speaker 1 (04:06):
We all have firearms, and we you know, I mean
I have I have firearms, and I know I know
Dana has them.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Obviously, we you know, we all know that.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
They they show up at a house, the person in
the house has no idea why all of a sudden
they see flashlights in their backyard. It look through the
window and see somebody with a gun. And the whole
idea that these lunatics are hoping for is that there's
a confrontation. Maybe somebody opens the door to try to
find out what's going on. The cops see them with
a weapon and they shoot. Maybe the person in the

(04:39):
home sees the person in the backyard, doesn't know it's cop,
thinks it to an intruder, takes a shot. Now you
shot a police officer, and then they open up fire.
I mean, this is what could go wrong in these situations.
So Senator Mike Lee said that these people need to
be prosecuted on the federal level with attempted murder, and
I agree because this isn't a local situation.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
When this occurs.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
This happens because you've got people doing this many states
away online and they're covering their tracks using various different protocols.
I reached out to my local police department, and I
know the cops in my town, but I just sent
them a note and I said, look, I want to
make you wear what's going on here. This is happening
to a lot of my colleagues, and I just we

(05:23):
need to I want to come up with a plan
here in a situation for this if this happens again
in the future. Because when Joe PAGs when this happened
to him, he says, he looks outside, he sees all
these guys with guns. He calls nine one one. He says,
is this are you here for me? And they said, yeah,
we have reports as an active shooter. He goes, well,
there isn't. I'm being swatted in the nine one one
dispatcher didn't know what that was, and he said, well,

(05:45):
you know they're doing this to conservatives across the country
right now, I'm gonna stay on the phone with you.
Can you please let them know that there's no threat now.
The problem is that from the cops perspective, they don't
know that. They don't know if that's just somebody in
the house holding people hostage, calling nine on one and
saying there's nothing to worry about. So how did they know,

(06:05):
you know what I mean, put it, put yourself in
the police officer's perspective in that moment.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
They don't They don't know that.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
I mean, you know, they go, hey, it's it's me,
it's my house. Everything's fine. The cop doesn't know if
there's a guy holding a gun to your wife's head
making you say.

Speaker 5 (06:18):
That or not.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
So they're they're adrenaline, which is at a thousand, is
not going to go down anytime soon. So Joe was
really smart about it. He said, tell them I'm going
to come out. I'm going to open the lights. I'm
going to come out with my hands up and and
I'm going to stay on the phone with you until
we work, you know. And he waited a minute until
he got the okay, slowly opened the door, hands out,

(06:42):
guns were aimed at him, and he walks out. And
that's what I would suggest if that would happen to you,
Because you might be not a famous person per se,
but you might be an online media person.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
You know, you're you're active on social.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
Media, it doesn't You don't have to be famous for
it to happen to you, and they may just do
it to you. And so what I would suggest is
if that curves, do what he did, call nine one
one and say hey, and.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
Then be very calm and handle it very calmly.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
The only downside to that, obviously it's a risker and
have to take is that if it's not the police
in your backyard, if it's bad guys in your backyard,
but at least you're on the phone with nine one one,
and then they can hopefully dispatch people and if you know,
and then if they can confirm it it's not the
police in your backyard, well then you know. Now you know,
you got to deal with the situation in a whole
different way. Obviously, that's what I would suggest. But these

(07:34):
are monsters. I mean, these are the worst kind of
human beings on the planet if you ask me, they
really are. They're setting people up for a violent situation.
They're risking the lives of law enforcement, They're risking the
lives of the people who live in the house. I'll
see about it from my perspective, and I have little
kids you know what happens if my son opens the
door and.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
He's I mean, he's got he's got a toy gun.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
All the kids have toy guns, you know, they're the
nerf guns and stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
But that's at night.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
That stuff gets confusing and things go wrong, very very wrong.
So you're gonna wind up getting somebody killed. You're gonna
wind up getting a kid killed or a cop killed,
or maybe worse. These people need to go to prison
and then civilly sued for damages. They should have to
pay the cost of whatever that police dispatch was, because

(08:21):
setting up a swat team ain't cheap. You know, you
can roll out the swat team that ain't cheap. That's
number one. Number two, whatever personal stress you and your
family have endured that should be worth. There should be
a monetary value of that of like a million dollars,
a minimum of a million dollars, and then those people
should be sued, put in prison, civilly sued as well.
It's the only we're gonna make it stop, because this

(08:41):
isn't something that's just happened. This has been going on
for years, and it's happened to members of Congress. It's
happened to member, It's happened to I know a local
state senator, a local New Jersey state senator who I'm
good friends with. This happened to him, And in a
lot of these situations. Now and I think after now
that the FBI directors is putting out a statement to

(09:04):
local law enforcement on this, I think that it's going
to have to be addressed in a sense that if
it's easy in the saince the cops might know, oh,
that's Senator so and so. This is probably a swatting thing.
Or hey that you know, that's that so and so's house.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
That person's on.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
TV a lot or radio a lot, it's probably a
swatting thing. But what happens to the person who is
not a national figure and is just tweeting and then
the police don't know and then they go to the house,
You know what I mean? We got to prosecute these
people to the full extend of the law and use
whatever resources to track them down digitally because a lot

(09:39):
of them hide their digital footprints. I don't know if
the President's going to address that today, like I said,
when he goes to the Department of Justice, but it's
a very very scary situation.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
It really is.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
And a lot of this is feel by the insane
rhetoric of the left, like for example, Maxine Waters. I
think I think this rhetoric of the left leads to
these situations. I'm not one who likes to blame speech
for the actions of others. However, when you were constantly
telling people that we are about to be at war,
when you're constantly telling people that Trump is hitler, this

(10:08):
is a distinction I make. We as a country have
been fighting with each other since literally before we signed
the Declaration of Independence. You think about ten times in America,
go back to seventeen seventy five, when people were arguing
over whether or not we should declare independence from the king.
That was truly America's first civil war, the Revolutionary War,

(10:30):
it really was. And then when we became a country
in seventeen eighty nine, rules around and we start fighting
the federalists the anti federalists. Do we want a central bank?
Do we not want a central bank? I David made
a play about it, some guy named Hamilton. His ideas
were Jefferson's and the contrasts of that. It's been a
conflict of visions to quote doctor Thomas Souls since the

(10:51):
beginning of the Republic. I'm okay with that, and I
don't blame rhetoric for the actions of a crazy person. However,
I'm going to say this, however, not a butt, but however,
difference when you were constantly telling people that Trump is Hitler,
when you were constantly telling people that people are propping
up Hitler, you were sending a message to them to
do something that is a positive, which is to take

(11:13):
out Hitler.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
I mean, you know, they made movies about this.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
There's a movie called Valkyrie with Tom Cruise where he
plays this true story about this German colonel I believe
it was, who tries to lead a plot to kill
Adolf Hitler.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
Like you would think that that's a good thing.

Speaker 1 (11:28):
If you had a chance to take out Hitler, if
you go back in time, would you kill Hitler? Almost
everybody says yes. The only tricky rub becomes when you're
in philosophy class debating killing baby Hitler, which was also
a deleted scene from the movie Deadpool too and in
my opinion, a hysterical scene that they should not have deleted,
but they felt it was a little rough. Even that
was a little rough because it's a baby. But you

(11:51):
tell people you have to stop Hitler. You tell people
you gotta stop the people that are empowering Hitler. They
think they're on the side of right, they think they're
on the side of good. They think they're on the
side of stopping evil. That's why that is danger. That's
why it's different than just your usual garden variety political
rhetoric calling, name calling, back and forth stuff we've been
doing since the days of the Founding Fathers, calling each
other bastards and atheists and accusing each other of having

(12:13):
lots of different kids with bastards, sons and daughters. And
we did all that. I have no problem with that stuff,
But that's different. The Hitler thing is the problem that
drives a lot of this. Because most people agree that
if you could go in the Dolorey and go back
in time and take the shot and kill Hitler and
you'd be successful, you do it the only But then

(12:35):
you get into the philosophical debate, of course, of what
happens now that you've altered time and the time space
continuum and all that. And I get that, and that's
a whole other topic for another show. But you see
my point. You know, would you if you could have
killed maw if you could have called pole pot. It
doesn't have to just be Hitler, just that that's the
one they always equate Trump with. You know, would you
have done so and saved millions of lives in genocides

(12:55):
the Marxists? If you could have killed Karl Marx, not
Karl Marx, but Joseph Stalin and you could have saved
you know, the millions of people he killed in the purges,
would you have done it?

Speaker 5 (13:05):
You know?

Speaker 2 (13:05):
These are true philosophical questions.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
And the problem is that we're living a day and
age now where you've got lunatics like Maxine Waters calling Trump,
equating him to this and saying stuff like this cut
number seven.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
What does top expect?

Speaker 6 (13:20):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (13:20):
I believe he expects violence. I believe he expects confrontation.
I believe he's working toward a silvil water.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
That's crazy stuff.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
This is the Data show, not my show, but it's
me Rich is the only in for data. And it's
great to be with you on a Friday. We're coming
right back.

Speaker 7 (13:37):
All family pharmacies a great entity. I've used them several
times and I love the fact that I can get
what I need to get when I know I need,
when I need it, and I can get it quickly
two to four days or overnight in a pinch, if
I need it overnighted. Your health is always in reach.
With All Family Pharmacy. They well, the cool thing about

(13:58):
it too is you know you. For instance, I give
the example of what was over the holidays, it was
like over Thanksgiving, I was hosting, I was getting strup threat.

Speaker 4 (14:06):
I've had a million times. I know exactly what it is.

Speaker 7 (14:09):
Urgent Care, the one that was around me was already closed.
It was after ten o'clock. I mean, it was just rough,
and I ordered medicine from All Family Pharmacy, had it overnighted,
and was able to start my medicine literally the next day.

Speaker 4 (14:21):
It was like almost ten. Actually it was like after nine.
I think the Urgent Claire.

Speaker 7 (14:24):
Closed at nine's. And that's what's so great. I had
zithromias and they have over two hundred medications, they have antibiotics,
they've ivermectin, hydroxy chloroquin, all of this stuff too. That
big pharma was telling you that you don't need they
got it, but it's all made in the USA. So
you don't have to worry about outsourced inputs from China

Speaker 8 (15:03):
And now all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick five.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
So shoppers out there are skimping on cigarettes, Toritos, and Twinkies.
US convenience stores sales fell four point three percent by
volume in the year ending on February twenty third. Is
it that or is it health concerns? I mean, I
love a good twinkie, don't get me wrong, but I
think of them as surviving nuclear holocaust. The same thing

(15:29):
with Dorito's, and my son loves them. But I think
we've all kind of realized now they're not good for you.
And cigarettes, yeah, I mean you get gilded into buying
them and they're like twenty bucks a pack now, so
I think it might be more of the health thing
than anything else. I don't think it's a sign of
bad economic times married men. Married men are three times
as likely to be obese. Study finds the risks of

(15:49):
being overweight increased with marriage for both sexes, but OBEs
link is only founded men. Does that surprise anyone listening
to this show? Honestly?

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Does that surprise?

Speaker 5 (15:59):
No?

Speaker 2 (15:59):
Wife?

Speaker 1 (16:00):
I used to joke with me because when I met her,
I used to go to the gym at a trainer,
you know what I mean. Then like a year later,
we're on a cruise and I was ordering two beef Wellington's.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
But I've since lost weight.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
But now that happens, guys tend to, you know, let
themselves go a little bit. But trust me, you should
always date your wife. It's a big sign in life.
And so try to, you know, keep you figure out.
Also just healthier you don't want to be, you know.
And now you can just take a shot. Right, Americans
are going to witness a rare blood moon total eclipse tonight.

Speaker 2 (16:26):
That's right, the red colored blood.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
Moon, which started technically last night and the first total
lunar eclipse visible in the continent since twenty twenty two.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
And it's going to go until.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
This weekend, a blood moon reddish orange color. I'm sure
the left will interpret that is a sign of Trump
ending the world or something like that, but it's just
it's an optical illusion. Gold hits record highs on Trump's
latest tariff's threat, and I'm guessing it's also because they're
worried that Goldfinger.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
Might have gotten it all out of Fort Knox.

Speaker 1 (16:57):
Gold sort to a record high on Thursdays and Donald
Trump threat and to post huge tariffs on champagne, wine
and other alcoholic products from European Union countries. The fresh
threats add to global trade and certainty, pushing gold to
a high. Look at that, and if you don't have
a lot of money, you might be Ben Afflick's sun
who asks for six thousand dollars sneakers only to have

(17:19):
dad tell him no cause you're broke.

Speaker 1 (18:49):
So AOC is having a meltdown that Chuck Schumer is
going to go along with the spending bill that the
Democrats went along with last time, which is literally their
spending bill, and only be able to should be upset
by the spending bill conservatives, and yet somehow we're not
except for Tom Massey, who, by the way, is a
great guy and should not be primaried, and we need
more principal conservatives. He's not a grandstander, He's a principal conservative.

(19:12):
And the President would be wise to realize that you
want more Tom Massey's and more of chip Roy's too.
You know, the President went after chip Roy as well,
and then chip Roy was the one out there selling
this cr because he gives the presswer of impoundment. We
need more principal conservatives. That means that makes our job
harder sometimes, so be it. But I don't like this

(19:34):
whole notion of let's go after the principal conservatives and
call them grand standards and try to get them primaried.

Speaker 2 (19:42):
It's not a good thing. It's not good.

Speaker 1 (19:44):
That then we'll end up with, you know, we'll end
up with will end up with a con Right now,
there are going to be other moments like this going
forward where solidly conservative, principled members of the House or
Senate are going to say no to the President. The
answer can't be let's primary them, let's remove them, let's
get rid of them.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
That is not good for anybody.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
But what's funny to watch though, is that typically Democrats
are all lockstep on things, which is one of the
things I like about the Republicans is that they there's
more disagreement in the ranks, but Democrats are typically always
in locksteps. So now that Chuck Schumer has said he's
going to come out and vote for the CR, of
which it's their CRS. So the only people that should
be upset by this are Republicans, like I said, not Democrats,
but Republicans are going to do it because the President

(20:29):
has said, please do this, I need some time, Please
go ahead with the CR.

Speaker 2 (20:32):
I understand that.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Look, I get it, and I've said this on my
own show in Philly. I'm not the biggest fan of tariffs.
I don't like this CR, but the guy just won
a landslide victory. He won every swing state, he won
the popular vote, he won the electoral College. He's a
billionaire as a successful businessman. I'm going to give him
the benefit of the doubt on the things that I
personally don't agree with, because I'm going to trust him
that he knows what he's doing, and I'm gonna trust

(20:54):
the fact that he wants to go down in history
as one of the most consequential and beloved presidents. If
he says we're gonna do tariffs, okay, go. You know
you ran on it. You said you would do it,
so then okay. Whether or not I personally agree with
it or not, it's not the point. I'm not president.
He ran on this issue. He didn't hide it from
the American people, he didn't say he was anti tariff
and gets in there and then does a onoin't eighty.

(21:16):
So now you give him the chance to do his
tariffs and show us why he's gonna he's right. Let
us see why his strategy is going to work. And
then the second point on this is he has said
to the conservatives, look, we got to get our house
in order here, but I need time. I just got
here you got to just give me a CR. And
let's I know we're kicking the can down the road,
but we got to do it for now because there's

(21:38):
just it's a mess, all right. It's a mess, and
we got to deal with it. Okay, I'm fine with
that too. I get it. I understand it. I don't
like it, but I get it. All these things take time.
He just became president not even two months ago. We're
talking fifty days, fifty plus days, and March tenth was
day number fifty. But was it the only fiftieth that

(22:00):
anniversary of something? The point is this, you can't have
a situation where you expect miracles overnight because it's not
realistic under a system of government. Because we designed a
constution republic that was designed to move slowly. The founders
and the frames of the Constitution were acutely aware of that.
They wanted the process to move slowly. So I'm okay, fine,

(22:20):
you want to do a CR. Fine, But what I
don't get is, Democrats, this is your CR. This is
we're continuing your spending. We're continuing what you and Biden
put in place. So we'll do it to give our
president a chance here to get the house in order
and figure out what has to be cut. It said,
but what do you guys upset about? I don't get this,
I don't understand this. This is this is like it's

(22:41):
today's pie Day, today, three fourteen. Pie Day should be
recognizing pizza, in my opinion, not fruit pie, not desert pie.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
It should be about pizza pie. It's Friday, it's Lent.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
Although if you asked me, the whole issue about whether
or not you have to you can't eat meat on Friday's. Look,
I'm Italian, I'm a Roman Catholic, and all I can
tell you is Vaticans in Rome. Do I think that
some Italian fishermen from Naples took a trip up to
Rome to ask, you know, a cardinal at one point, Bishop,
can we you know, can we get everybody starting fish

(23:13):
on Fridays? Do I think that might have happened. I'm
not rolling it out. I'm just not rolling it out.
So I'm gonna say I don't want to get controversial. Tonight.
We're rolling out anchovies. Though that's controversial, not for me,
not from my perspective. I put anchovies in a clam
on a pizza every day, every day, because that's my
that's my ancestor, my people. That's what they did. But

(23:34):
my children have yet to be exposed to anchovies. And
tonight's gonna be the night because I'm making homemade pizza.
And I mean, heads are gonna roll in this house,
and but we're doing it anyway.

Speaker 2 (23:45):
I don't care.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
And maybe I'll make a clampie too, Like maybe I'll
tell my wife who got some clams good clam pie
right out of Naples? You know what I mean. My
point is, this is pie day, it's three fourteen, it's
a Friday. So you got to make homemie pizza. Gotta
at least enjoy pizza. Got you something like that. But
it'd be like you coming over to my house and
I made all this pizza and I refuse to eat it,
and then a grandstand and I throw it out and

(24:07):
you're like, but you made this pizza. I don't I
don't understand. You've made this. This is yours.

Speaker 2 (24:12):
You did this.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
Yeah, I'm a I refuse to eat this and now
I'm gonna call it slop and throw it away. But
you you did it, ziola. You made this.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
You made the dough by hand, you made the cheese
by hand.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
Yes, I do buy mozzarella curred a little salt water,
boiling salt water. It's wonderful, so heavenly, really is heaven
And now you're refusing to eat it, and not only that,
your grandstanding and throwing it on the floor and making
a spectacle of yourself. The cur bill is the Democrats spending.
This is their stuff. I don't get that. I don't

(24:44):
I can't figure this out. Here's Schumer going on about
what's happening here and why he's now capitulated and going
to go along with keeping the government open. I think
it's because he understands politically speaking that, yeah, the Democrats
would get the blame for this, the Schumer shut down.
I understand. And I know my buddy Johnny Cook's listening
right now on X Thank you, Johnny. If you'd like
to tweet me, you can tweet me at rich Zeoli. Yeah.

(25:08):
Typically Republicans do get to blame, but that's usually when
the Democrats have the White House and we put forward
the speaker or whoeverybody to be the voice on this,
and they're not very good at this. Trump is a
is a force man, and he knows the media better
than anybody. He knows how to control the cycle, the
media cycle. He will get out there on TV. He
blamed Democrats, he'd hammered Democrats on this, and I truly

(25:28):
do believe the American people would blame them, especially because
he's coming in, he's still in his honeymoon period, and
he wanted a landslide electoral College popular vote all seven
swing states. I do believe the Democrats would get the
blame for this, And that's why I think John Fetterman,
Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman, and I played that on the
Clipper for you yesterday on the show. That's why I
think John Fetterman said what he said. He knows that

(25:51):
they would get the blame for this. So Schumer just
gets that. That's all it comes down to. They tried
to pick a fight here, and then common sense people
also expose the fact that this is your spending bill,
like this is your spending guys. Cut two.

Speaker 10 (26:06):
While the CR bill is very bad, the potential for
a shutdown has consequences for America that are much much worse.
For sure, the Republican bill is a terrible option. It
is not a clean CR. It is deeply partisan. It

(26:29):
doesn't address far too many of this country's needs. But
I believe allowing Donald Trump to take even more, even
much more power via a government shutdown is a far
worse option.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
Okay, so then you're going with it. That's fine. AOC
is not happy and you're probably gone. A primary challenge
from AOC on this Alexandria Costa Cortes, who did you
know the TikTok street fighter video?

Speaker 2 (26:59):
There's a more combat or street fighter. I some debate
on that.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
I think I went back and I played Mortal Kombat
on my son's switch the other day and you select
your fighter, so I'm pretty sure it's Mortal Kombat but
can also be street fighter. It doesn't matter, none of
them know. But She'm just you know, she had that
whole zebra background. What was up with that?

Speaker 2 (27:19):
Why did anybody talk about that?

Speaker 1 (27:21):
All these goofy Democrat women were making that dumb video
choose your fighter and they had all their things? What
was with her zebra background? Did she kill zebras? Were
Zebra's harmed in the making of that? That's what I
want to know, and I really wish we would have
a conversation, a national conversation about that zebra background, the
black lights in there? You know, do you use a
I mean you got like a lava lamp. But what's

(27:42):
going on? It was at a college dorm room, you remember,
a congress. It was just weird, that's all. Not I
just it was just strange to me looking at that
whole set. I mean, like, what's up with this?

Speaker 2 (27:52):
Is your house?

Speaker 1 (27:54):
I mean, worse of it was her fiance's house, because
that would be even worse, but that wouldn't surprise me anyway.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
Here's AOC with tap or cut eight.

Speaker 11 (28:01):
Would you what do you think of the John de
Chuck Schambers doing?

Speaker 12 (28:03):
Would you ever challenge him?

Speaker 13 (28:04):
Do you think?

Speaker 14 (28:05):
I think that what we need right now is a
United Senate Democratic caucus that can stand up for this
country and not vote for cloture and not vote for
this bill. And I think that the strength that we
have is in this moment reconciliation. And all of these
Republicans do not need Democratic votes for that, they need
it for this. And so the strength of our leadership

(28:27):
in this moment is going to demonstrate the strength of
our caucus. And I cannot urge enough how bad of
an idea it is to empower and enable Donald Trump
and Elon Musk in this moment. It is dangerous.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
You're dodging the question. Though you're dodging the question. I
do think you're going to go after Schumer in primarium.
You probably will try and beat him too. That's the thing.
If you look at New York State politically. My wife
grew up in Tupper Lake, New York, which is in
the Adirondecks. My dad was a cop, a Port Authority
police officer, so my parents were in the Bronx. And
then I'm looking at the map of New York State.

(29:04):
New York State is actually a red state if you
were to leave out in New York City and parts
of the area outside of New York City Westchester County,
but it's a red state all the way through. It's
a red state the Adirondacks, where at least the phonic
is the member of Congress until she moves over to
the un she I assumes she's gonna be confirmed at
some point. Orange County, I mean all these counties. It's

(29:28):
a solidly red state with New York City in it.
So if New York City were to be annexed out,
you'd have another red state. But the problem is New
York City has got You're talking about ten million people
and a lot of people who vote Democrat.

Speaker 2 (29:43):
Obviously, there are.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
Many Republicans that vote in New York City, Staten Island,
the Upper East Side of Manhattan, parts of the Bronx,
parts of Queens, but it still is not enough to
overcome that and then overcome the people in counties like
Westchester County that moved out of New York City. But
they're all the people that live in those suburb parts.

Speaker 15 (30:02):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (30:03):
But I do I think AOC can beat him state wide?

Speaker 1 (30:05):
Yeah? I do, I really do. I think I think
she could chuck Schumer. They can't stand him in the
state and could. I mean, listen to the guy. He
also cooks raw burgers and puts a slice of cheese
on a perfectly raw burger that's not even on a
heated grill. The gamboll for a rare cheeseburger a hundred.
I sent one back last night because it was I

(30:27):
ordered it medium rare. Came out like a freaking hockey puck.
But it can't be raw. You can start a pandemic
many like the COVID pandemic, which is started by a
bat burger and undercooked bat burger with a side of
Penglin fries and a raccoon dog aoli.

Speaker 2 (30:41):
Everybody knows that.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
Wasn't a lab leak. Everybody knows that. But Chuck Schumer
is gonna start a pandemic with that freaking raw burger
on his grill. On the grill wasn't even hot and
he puts a slice of cheese on it. What are
you doing? Are you're making beef tart targets? You're gonna
make beef tartar You know, first of all, that's not
how you do it. But I think he could I
really do think he could lose. I think that he
has also lost a lot of the Republicans that you

(31:04):
sucide with him in New York State because they thought
he would deliver for New York. He's also nuts too.
Remember you're gonna have to tie pods because he said
that they'd be banned because kids were eating tiepods, and
we're like thousands of children were dying over to a junction.

Speaker 2 (31:20):
Is the guy that goes after everything. He just finds things.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Now is Zen pouches Zin pouches so Zin is a
brand of nicotine pouches, not tobacco pouches. They're different. Nicotine
is a chemical. There's a lot of benefits to saying.
It may stimulate your brain, it may fight Alzheimer's, helps
your attention. There's multiple brands, but zin is one of
the more popular ones, although I think Tucker Carlson has one.

Speaker 2 (31:44):
It's called alp.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
Either way, he wanted to ban those why he wanted
to ban flavored vapes. These things have helped people quit smoking,
which everybody acknowledges is bad for you.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Cigarette smoking.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
They've switched from that to using the nicotine couches, which
have no tobacco, and they switched over to vaping and lend.
They're going to survive now. But he wants to ban
those two. He's a lunatic. All right, it's a Dana
show with me Rich and for Dana. We're coming right back.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
Okaybe Monday is Saint Patrick's Day. That's crazy. Wow, that's
nuts flowing by this, This is this would be one
of those things where we're all going to realize now,
we're gonna be like, what happened? How did it go
by so quickly? It's just the nature of the day
in which we live. I guess, I don't know. It's
hard to believe, Like just yesterday was the inauguration. It

(34:00):
seems like it's flying very quickly. But it's a reminder
that midterms are going to be here before we know it,
and the party in the White House typically does not
farewell in midterms. And this is a House of Representatives
that is structured in a way right now where it
could easily flip back to the Democrats easily. So just
keep that in mind, because I mean, candidates already running

(34:22):
for re election in the House representatives, but also the
election for president is going to be here before you
know what. Candidates even now, candidates already starting to position
themselves for twenty twenty eight.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
I'm doing various different things.

Speaker 1 (34:35):
We see that with that slime ball Gavin Newsom in
his podcast is Dumb podcast, which conservatives stop going on
his podcast, Please stop normalizing this guy. I beg of
you enough. But it'd be interesting though. If AOC primaries
Truck Schumer. I think she could beat him and a
Democrat would take that seat. So it sound like the
Democrats would lose a seat in the House. But yeah,

(34:55):
and then she would run for president, and the question
of course could she win. Let's not forget something. AOC
is Bernie Sanders, but better looking. I mean, Bernie's one
hundred and seventy five years old, but she's the same mindset,
same mindset. And Bernie in twenty sixteen would have been

(35:16):
the Democrat nominee one hundred percent. He would have been
the Democrat nominee had the Democrat Party not stepped in
and stopped him from getting the nomination to ensure that
Hillary Clinton got the nomination. Democrat Party can control the
process because they control super delegates. It's why the Republican
Party was not able to stop Donald Trump, although they
tried in twenty sixteen. They were not able to stop

(35:36):
him because in the Republican Party, super delegates are not
a thing, so grassroots delegates are a thing. Democrat Party
controls the process from top to bottom. They blocked Bernie
in sixteen, they blocked Bernie in twenty twenty. But the question, though,
is for twenty twenty eight, would they try to do

(35:58):
that again or they just let a loose kin in
like AOC try to get in there. Now my senses,
they would still try to block it because they the
Democrat Party is controlled by so many various complexes now,
whether it's the war complex, the pharmaceutical complex, the science complex,
whatever complex you want to think of, and they want
somebody they can control. They control Hillary Clinton and she
was a warmonger. Joe Biden's same thing. So they that's

(36:22):
why they blocked Bernie. They need somebody they can control.
But I do think she could beat Chuck Schumer in
a primary, no doubt about it, no question in my mind.
All Right, coming up in the next hour of the
Dana Show, what is the President going to save the
Department of Justice.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
It's rich in for Dana.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
Don't go away, Preborn.

Speaker 7 (36:38):
This is a great organization that does so much to
help moms and babies, particularly saving babies. And every life
is a gift. And there's a story I remember reading
about Andrea Bochelly and Tim Tebow and Steph Curry.

Speaker 4 (36:55):
Apparently at one point their.

Speaker 7 (36:57):
Mothers were told and are suggested to that that they
should just have an abortion, and their mothers didn't listen.

Speaker 4 (37:02):
Can you imagine how.

Speaker 7 (37:03):
They good grief. Every baby has the potential to change
the world. So what Preborn does is they meet women
where they are, walk alongside them in crisis, offering love
and support and free ultrasounds so that they can see
their miracle of life growing within. And that's when a
woman faces an unplanned pregnancy, fear and pressure, especially fear

(37:24):
and pressure amplified by a society that wants a woman
to believe that she cannot raise a child drowns out
the truth right that she absolutely can and that her
baby is full of promise. And so Preborn steps in.
They step in with compassionate care, They offer hope, support, ultrasounds.
They also partner with these women up for the first
two years of life to make sure that they're on
their feet and that this young, growing family has the

(37:46):
best chance of success. So they have a real passion
for saving babies from abortion and seeing women not just
be able to take care of their families and become
the mother that they know they could be, but also
come to faith as well. All gifts are tax deductible.

Speaker 1 (38:33):
I never understand protesters who block highways. I never understand
that whatever cause you're for I'm now against it. Even
if I agree with you, and now I hate you
so much. You're blocking my you're making me late, you're
blocking traffic.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
You do not win hearts and minds.

Speaker 1 (38:47):
Doing that is the same thing when you take over
Trump Tower, You're not gonna what are you going to
convince the president to be on your side with this
sole issue with this kid they want to deport the student.
Welcome back to the Data Show. It's great to be
with you. It's a Friday afternoon and it's me Rich
is the only in for Data today. Appreciate you being
here on pie day. So we're getting ready for pizza tonight. No,
this this issue of the deporting this student with the

(39:10):
visa a green card, I should say his wife is
pregnant and she's a US citizen. It's a it's a
it's a touchy issue. He's entitled to do process under
the law because he is in fact a legal permanent
resident of the United States of America. However, the people
that are protesting his deportation yesterday by going to Trump
Tower and acting like crazy people, this is not You're

(39:31):
not going to win over people. Your to your to
your thinking I don't know who advises them. I think so.
Somebody asked me the question earlier about all these agitators
who go to town hall meetings and they do this stuff.
There are sub chains, there's a cych called Reddit. You
can go in there. There's all these things about getting
paid to do this. They hire people they do George
Soros and Act Blue and a bunch of these other organizations.

(39:54):
They pay people to go out there and disrupt, to
be paid disruptors. They don't have jobs, so they're more
than happy to take the money and do it. That's
where a lot of this is fuel from. Some of
these people are passionate. I'm not saying that they're all
like that. I think a lot of these people are
obviously very passionate about their cause, but not all of them.
But when you're doing this and you're protesting at Trump Tower,

(40:17):
who are you winning over? This is the ultimately the
decision of the President of the United States visa via
the Secretary of State Marc or Rubio. If it were me,
I'd say, bring out the pregnant American citizen wife. Let
her do a bunch of press conferences and go on
all the shows and do it that way, they don't
go into Trump Tower and cause disruption and look like

(40:39):
lunatics getting dragged out by the NYPD. It's the same
thing with people are shut down the school. When I'm
driving home from work in Philadelphia, when I can't drive
at the moment because I had a foot injury.

Speaker 2 (40:48):
But the same thing.

Speaker 1 (40:49):
You make me late for my commute, You make me
late for picking up my kids, you make me laate
for whatever. I hate you. I don't care what your causes.
I'm against it, whatever it is, whatever it is, I
now hate you and your cause. Even five minutes ago,
I was on your side. You don't win hearts and
minds that way. Here are the Trump Tower protesters yesterday
cut fourteen. Yeah, I mean Trump's looking at that, going,

(41:21):
what do they want me to do? They think I'm
going to come on their side. I'm trying to get
rid of crazy people. I'm trying to kick crazy people
out of the country. They just proved why I'm trying
to do what I'm doing. They just prove what I'm
what I'm attempting to achieve here, just to get rid
of crazy people. Now, look, this guy's going to have
his day in court. In the meantime, though, he is

(41:45):
in a situation like a lot of Americans are awaiting
his day in court, being held in a jail cell.
It's not pretty, it's not fun. There are American citizens
who are in jail cells right now. There are a
lot of people who were at the Capitol in January
sixth who were also held in jail cells without access
to their attorneys. Everybody should have access to council. Everybody

(42:08):
should be given access to their attorney. Everybody should. But
but and look, the reality of the situation is that
unless you are a flight risk or a real imminent
danger to the community, everybody should be released on bail.
But there are different circumstances under our immigration law than
under criminal law in the United States of America. But

(42:30):
I don't know how many people on the left were
whining about January sixth protesters and people who were taking
selfies in the hall, the retunda of the Capitol and
using the bathroom, who were literally detained without access to council.
Some in solitary can from any solitary confinement. They are
American citizens being held in solitary confinement. And our criminal
justice system, you don't hear about it. That often there

(42:52):
are mothers who are not allowed to hug their babies
and their children because certain prison systems don't allow contact
because you know, the kid may be smuggling a gun
or something.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
I guess I don't know, but that's my mind. Is cruel.

Speaker 1 (43:02):
It's cruel of kids, it's cruel to the mother. But
you don't hear about that stuff. It's like the family
separation stuff when they talk about families being separated at
the border. Here's a news flash. If you get arrested
for a crime, you are separated from your family. Your
kids don't go to prison with you. I mean they don't,
they don't. You are arrested for a crime and found guilty,

(43:25):
you go to prison. Your kids can visit, but they
don't get to spend in the cell with you. So
we have family separation in this day, in this country,
every day. It's called the justice system. It's just interesting
to be what causes they choose to make a cause
to leb over and what they don't.

Speaker 2 (43:41):
You know, it's really strange to me how they do this.
And I'm not so sure.

Speaker 1 (43:45):
That making this kid, this student at Columbia the face
of this works out well. For them. And the reason
why I think that is because say what you want
about Cuomo, Andrew Cuomo, the love Gov, the nursing home killer,
smart guy. Politically, he's staying far away from this, and
politically he's going out there and saying these Jewish students

(44:06):
have a right to exist and go to their colleges
and not have to deal with with this kind of
anti Semitism. He's a smart guy, Cuomo. I'm telling you,
I can tell you I don't like his politics, but
he's a lot more moderate in this day and age
than the whack jobs on the left. I mean, he's
the nursing home killer. He should be held accountable for
what he did with the nursing rooms in New York State.

(44:28):
But he's he's better than Gavin Newsom with his policies.
Not much better, but a little bit better. But compared
to like lunatics, like AOC at others, you look, Cuomo's
goal here is to come across as the moderate guy,
the sensible guy, the guy in the middle. So he's
he's not touching this whole thing with this Mamood Khalil guy.
He knows this is not a winner for them. Like

(44:49):
I said, if you wanted to get hearts and minds,
you'd roll out a pregnant American citizen wife and you'd
you'd have her on every show, and she'd be out
there and she'd be you'd be trying to win people
to the cause that way. But all you do, and
you have crazy people take over Trump Tower and then
the demonstrations on Columbia and everything else, is prove the
president's point. We have to get rid of people like

(45:10):
this in our country. And it's funny is I've pulled
a lot of people who are I consider more libertarian
leaning and they're like, nah, I don't care to port
the kid. He doesn't have a consolation right to be here.
It's like, yeah, I mean he doesn't. You know, the
law is pretty clear they can kick out anybody they want.
If you're not a United States citizen. You get a

(45:32):
modicum of due process depending on your level, but you
don't have a right to be in this country. And
I always say, it's just a simple common sense test.
You're a guest in someone's country. It'd be like me
going to Italy and holding protests and riots, demanding pineapple
on pizza.

Speaker 2 (45:47):
They'll boot me.

Speaker 1 (45:48):
They'll boot me out of there, even though I could
be an Italian citizen because my grandpa was born in Caivano, Italy.
They'll boot me out of there in a heartbeat. Anyway,
here is what let's see my mood. Khalil's attorney said
regarding this situation right now, cut their teens.

Speaker 16 (46:04):
This is all about the First Amendment, and it's all
about due process. You know they have they kidnapped this man,
this young student father to be in any minute now
based on an accusation that he has the wrong political
ideas and he has expressed them.

Speaker 1 (46:26):
Okay, first of all, every single person who gets arrested,
if you want to use that argument, is technically kidnapped.
Nobody really wants to get arrested and be put into jail.
That's why they do the whole thing with put your
hands up, they put you in handcuffs, They put you
in the back of a police car.

Speaker 2 (46:42):
The door doesn't open. This woman never seen a movie.

Speaker 1 (46:46):
I mean, if you want to make that argument, technically
everybody who's arrested is kidnapped by the state or by
the federal government. I'll just use the state in the
sense of the government, and nobody looks to get arrested.
So we saw it's not true. Some people do. It's
like red In Shawshank redemption. He wanted to go back in. No,
not Red the other guy he wanted to go back in.
I mean, some people can't make it outside of the

(47:08):
jail system. But for the most part, when the state
comes and they accuse you of a crime and they
take you, typically against your will, you go. You don't resist,
but you don't want to go. And then, especially if
it's on a Friday, you gotta wait till Monday to
see a judge. So they're kidnapped you, they're holding you
against your will. But yeah, that's what happens.

Speaker 12 (47:29):
Now.

Speaker 1 (47:29):
The First Amendment issue, this is where the government has
to prove the point before the judge that this is
beyond just simply the First Amendment and freedom of speech.
The reason why I say that is because I don't
want to create a dangerous precedent in this country where
we start deporting people based on their views and their beliefs.

(47:49):
I would like the bar to be action, even if
that action causes unrest, fine with that. I mean, even
if it's just that causes You got to give me
something more than just simple speech or thoughts or views
or belief because I know that that'll come back and
bite us in the future, want no doubt about it.
I give a president AOC is in there. Do I

(48:10):
see her deporting Israeli students or Israeli legal permanent residence
the United States of America because she's saying they're advocating
for genocide against the Palestinian people. One hundred percent, Absolutely
I do. And she would be within her rights under
the law, just like the Trump administrations well within the
rights under the law to deport people based based on

(48:31):
their views. I mean, it's just that's it. That's how
it goes, for better or for worse, That's how it goes.
This is what the Vice President Jade Vance had to
say on the issue cut number twelve.

Speaker 6 (48:42):
Green card holder, even if I might like that green
card holder, doesn't have an indefinite right to be in
the United States of America, right, American citizens have different
rights from people who have green cards, from people who
have student visas. And so my attitude on this is
that this is not fundamentally about free speech, and to me, yes,
it's about national security, but it's also more importantly about

(49:03):
who do We as an American public decide gets to
join our national community. And if the Secretary of State
and the President decide this person shouldn't be in America
and they have no legal right to stay here, it's
as simple as that.

Speaker 1 (49:16):
Yeah, we as a country also get to choose that.
It's a very valid point. We get to choose who
we want in this country. We get to make that decision.
That is an American prerogative.

Speaker 5 (49:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
You think about Germany, for example, where you had Angela
Merkel angl and Merkel let in millions of Muslim immigrants
into her country. A lot of European countries have done
this and they've drastically changed the character of their countries. So, yeah,
the United States of America does have a legitimate interest
in saying we want this person, we don't want that person.

(49:49):
It's kind of like picking a team. We don't have
to take anybody on this team. We don't have to
let anybody in it. There's no no one outside of
the United States America, in terms of citizenship, has a
right to be in this country. There is no constitutional
right that says you have a right to come to
the United States of America. If you're not a United
States citizen and be part of the United States of America,

(50:09):
because the Constitution wouldn't apply to that person anyway, and
sore not a US citizen. Citizenship matters, it always has.
It's the earliest days of the Republic. We were very
acutely aware of the fact that we could have foreign
countries trying to infiltrate our country. This is part of
Jefferson's argument for Manifest Destiny. Part of the argument for

(50:30):
the Louisiana purchase was national security, the idea that we
have to maintain an American character and that we have
to watch out from foreign influence. So, yeah, we do
have a right to do all those things. We have
a right to preserve our culture, and we have a
right to say we think that person's a pain in
the ass and we don't want them here. The problem

(50:50):
is that whoever's in charge and decides what that means
to be a pain in the tuks changes based on
who's in power, and that's what you have to be
careful of, which is why these things have to be
done diligent, lean done the right way.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
Because who jd.

Speaker 1 (51:04):
Vance views as anathetical to America's character who jd Vance
views as a pain in the neck to American society.
I happen to agree with him, but that doesn't mean
that I'll agree with the next president who views somebody
that way. It could be somebody who is a Russian
student or a Russian citizen here on a legal permanent

(51:26):
green card who they say is to pro Trump and
is trying to overthrow America. And if Elon Musk were
not a US citizen and the Democrats are in charge,
they'd be trying to send him back to South Africa
right now. So, yeah, all these things have to be diligent.
But honestly, their actions right now are demonstrating to a
lot of Americans why you're not getting and outpouring is

(51:47):
support for this guy. You're just not and you're not
going to not as long as they keep up this behavior,
that's for sure.

Speaker 17 (51:53):
All right.

Speaker 1 (51:53):
More to come on the Dana Show with me. Rich
is the only in for Dana, Don't go away.

Speaker 7 (51:57):
It is our friends over a super Beats the super
Berene Pro. It's a new product from newish product from
super Beats, and it's now available at Sam's Club. Metabolism
and Healthy Blood Sugar Levels are very important concerning overall health,
and so this is why they introduced Superberene. It's a
plant based supplement that's formulated with an ingredient that helps

(52:17):
to support your metabolism and helps to support blood sugar levels.
It's nearly three times more effective than your diet and
exercise alone.

Speaker 4 (52:25):
These are real results.

Speaker 7 (52:26):
It's super convenient, one easy to swallow capsule a day,
helps you to do more to support those metabolic health
blood sugar levels, and these are clinically researched ingredients. The
berberine that they use has a nearly ten times higher
absorption than standard berbering used by doctors from the makers
of the Superbat's haartchues, So head you're near Sam's Club,

(52:48):
save on Superbeat's artues and the new superberine from Human
You'll love the way it makes you feel.

Speaker 8 (52:54):
And now all of the news you would probably miss,
it's time for Data's Quick five.

Speaker 1 (53:01):
I mentioned yesterday that the Disney movie Snow White is
headed for an absolute epic disaster. Well it's getting even
worse now as the two stars of the movie, Gal
Gado and Rachel Zegler, are both clashing over Israel and Palestine.

Speaker 2 (53:16):
And they won't. They won't do anything together.

Speaker 1 (53:19):
They won't do a tour together, they won't do an
interview together because gal Gado is from Israel and she's
very very much pro Israeli and Zegler put on X
last year Free Palestine, and in all these interviews she
went on there blaming Israel for all these quote senseless deaths.
So more problems for snow White, which is supposed to

(53:39):
come out next week.

Speaker 2 (53:40):
Good luck with that.

Speaker 1 (53:42):
I refused, this woman says, I refused to give up
my seat to a flying toddler, to a toddler on
a plane, and it went viral because somebody filmed me,
And now she's suing the passenger who filmed her. So
she's like, yeah, the kid's crying. I think it was
a big deal, but he was sitting on my seat.
I came back, they can I have my seatback? And
then went viral, So she's now suing the airline and

(54:04):
the annoying.

Speaker 2 (54:04):
Karen who took a video of her.

Speaker 1 (54:06):
But I do have to say it's worked out for
her because she's beautiful, she's Brazilian, and now she's an
influencer and she's got millions of followers.

Speaker 2 (54:13):
And she's probably gonna become super rich.

Speaker 1 (54:15):
So I don't know she really has a case though,
since it kind of worked out in her favor. And
beyond beef Sloppy Joe, which sounds as disgusting as it
sounds beyond beef sloppy Joe.

Speaker 2 (54:26):
Yeah, I'm not gonna be making that this weekend.

Speaker 1 (54:27):
And spinal Tap to the movie, the beloved movie Spinal Tap, Well,
they made a sequel. And the release date it's coming out.
It is set for release on September twelfth. How about that?
All right? Coming up here, I'm the Dana Show. President
Trump will speak of the Department of Justice and more
outrage over Chuck Schumer.

Speaker 2 (54:46):
Don't go away.

Speaker 4 (54:47):
We got Celtech.

Speaker 7 (54:48):
It's the PR fifty seven, which I cannot wait to
get this. I know I've not fired it, but I
have held it. I held it and I've taken it
apart in all fun stuff. But it's the PR fifty seven.
It's a five to seven and they've it's the lightest
five to seven that's on the market, and in fact,

(55:10):
it's forty percent lighter than the next lightest five to seven.
Low recoil build to perform and the MSRP is only
three ninety nine and I think this is the first
one that rolled off their Wyoming expansion facility. Everything is
made in Florida, but now they got the Wyoming facility
as well, and it's just a unique it's awesome, really
innovative rotary barrel makes it super light. The unique top

(55:31):
loading design replaces the traditional mag with a stripper clip.
I know it's slimmer, carry profile twenty plus one capacity.
It's the PR fifty seven rotary barrel pistol chambered in
five to seven at Celtech k E l t Ec
Weapons dot Com. Tell them Dana sent you.

Speaker 9 (55:46):
Keep your finger on the pulse with a data show
podcast delivering timely news with insightful analysis whenever you want,
straight to you on YouTube, Apple or wherever you get
your podcasts.

Speaker 1 (55:57):
Great song, Welcome back to the show. Glad you're here
on a Friday, here on the Dana Show. So so
Chuck Schumer, I was talking about this earlier. You know,
his capitulation on this, which is causing a lot of
Democrats now to be very very angry at Chuck Schumer
first saying he's going to support the cr which is
just a continuation of the spending under the Democrats. So

(56:18):
why anybody's angry over this, I have no idea other
than they just don't want to give Donald Trump a win.
Let's be honest. They just don't want to give Donald
Trump a win. But it's their money, it's their spending.
There's nothing here that's changed. But I want to share
this clip with you.

Speaker 2 (56:29):
This is this is now.

Speaker 1 (56:31):
Secretary Scott bessen too is the Secretary of the Treasury
in the United States of America. Maybe maybe this explains
what the bigger picture is and what we're all hoping
happens here and why they want to have just a
cr for now. And yeah, is it kicking the can
down the road, Yes, but it's not. They're not doing
it because they're procrastinating. They're doing it because they're focused

(56:52):
on doing all these other things that have to be
done in the short term. And it's it's just difficult
to get caught Unggress on board right now. And I understand,
I understand the game plan. I'm okay with the game plan.
I'm willing to give the time. I'm willing to give
it a chance. Let's see how this all works out.
I don't love the fact that we have a cr

(57:13):
nobody does, but let's take the time to get it right. Okay,
I'm in cut one.

Speaker 12 (57:21):
We're trying to bring down this spending and we're determined
to do that. We're trying to right size the federal government.
We are committed to that. As I mentioned, we've gotten
oil prices down. Secretary of Rollins had a very good
plan to get egg prices down. So the media kind

(57:41):
of touted it when they were going up, but now
they're down twenty five percent from the peak, and we
don't hear much about that. So it's kind of at
all hands on deck all areas of government that we
are trying to do that.

Speaker 1 (57:56):
Okay, I get it. And the price of oil coming
down is huge. That's a really big deal. Obviously, it's
a very very big deal. What those you're doing is
a big deal, no doubt about it. But you see,
the Democrats just don't want to give Trump a win.
That's the bottom line. So here's a little montage for
you of Democrats melting out over melting down over the CR. Again,

(58:17):
their spending. This is what they approved themselves. We're just
continuing it. It's just a continuation of what the Democrats
were spending. So I don't know what the heck they're
melting down over. We should be theoretically melting down, but
we're not because we're giving the president a chance.

Speaker 17 (58:32):
Here cut five, I cannot support giving them a license
to destroy, nor that surrenders or capitulates what I swore
an oath to do, which is uphold the Constitution.

Speaker 15 (58:44):
It is one thing for those who aspire to dictatorship
to take power.

Speaker 1 (58:48):
It is another to knowingly give it to him.

Speaker 14 (58:50):
And they've already proven that Instead of governing responsibly, they've
been reckless, causing chaos, confusion.

Speaker 1 (58:58):
They've been reckless. Yeah, with the money that you put
out there, your money. And then you know the thing
about Schumer is that the reason why part of the
reason why I think AOC could beat him in a primary,
is because the Liberals will all go for no question
about it. But moderate Democrats I think have had it
with this guy.

Speaker 2 (59:17):
I really do. I think who there's not a lot
of modern.

Speaker 1 (59:21):
Democrats in New York State left, let's be honest, but
they're just tired of him. He's been there forever, and
you know he's when you're the majority leader that's one
thing that's a lot of power. But it's kind of
like Mitch McConnell. Everybody has their time, everybody has their
day here. And I think for McConnell, it was a
long time ago when he, you know, thank him for

(59:43):
getting us the judges, the justices through on the Supreme
Court so that they could overturn Roe v. Wade restore
originalism back to the Supreme Court. But by Mitch, like,
your time has come and gone, thank you, Time to
move on, I think from the Democrats perspective, for Chuck Schumer,
at your majority of you brought a lot of money
back to New York. You're not a majority leader anymore.

(01:00:04):
Time to go. And then he starts calling people names,
which you always know that you got somebody on the
ropes and they start calling people names.

Speaker 2 (01:00:09):
Cut number three.

Speaker 10 (01:00:10):
To have the conflict on the best ground we have
summed up in a sentence that they're making the middle
class pay for tax cuts for billionaires. It's much much
better not to be in the middle of a shutdown,
which to divert people from the number one issue we
have against these bastards, sorry, these people, which is not
only all these cuts, but they're ruining democracy.

Speaker 1 (01:00:33):
They're ruining democracy. Got it, They're ruining democracy. Just so
you know, now, he said, you know, I listen. I
knew people were going to disagree with me, but a
shutdown would be the greatest disaster that we face.

Speaker 2 (01:00:47):
But that's something you said fifteen minutes ago, Chuck. That's
the problem.

Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
You went out there as the leader of your party,
the highest elected official in Congress, and you went out
there like a lunatic, jitting up all the opposition to it,
and then you you change your mind. Of course, people
are gonna be upset with you for that. That's politics.
One oh one, dummy cut four.

Speaker 4 (01:01:09):
I have it wrong.

Speaker 10 (01:01:10):
I supported what the House did to vote against this
bill universally, but that didn't cause a shutdown. It's a
different it's different in the Senate, and I knew people
were going to disagree with me, but I felt so
strongly that the shutdown would be the greatest disaster we
face with these arrogant, arrogant autocrats, that we had to

(01:01:31):
avoid the shutdown and fight on many of the other things,
every other issue that we.

Speaker 1 (01:01:37):
Have, these arrogant, arrogant autocrats, arrogant arrogant autocrats, by the way,
was my Van Halen cover band name in college. We
are Arrogant, Arrogant Autocrats. Senator Corey Booker, who you know
is Spartacus. Senator Corey Booker of New Jersey. I call

(01:01:57):
him Count grand Stangelo a Spartacus book and the Tears
of Rage band because this guy is such an absolute grandstander.
He always never Actually, Corey Booker has had an interesting
political story.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
He used to be my favorite Democrat.

Speaker 1 (01:02:14):
He was. He ran for mayor of Newark, New Jersey.
He ran on school choice, he ran on giving children opportunity,
creating charter schools. The minute that that guy saw statewide
and national ambition, he sold out to the teachers union,
just like Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro's doing. Abandoned school choice,
abandoned charter schools, did exactly what the teacher's union wanted.

(01:02:37):
And then he just became a grandstanding nut and he
had real potential. He did, He had real potential. He
was at one point everybody's favorite Democrat. Republicans loved him,
everybody went to Newark to help him win. He was
running at the time against this guy named Sharp James,
who wound up going to prison because he was so
damn corrupt. But yeah, Republicans were working in Newark to
help Corey Booker get elected. At one point, I was

(01:02:59):
working in Jersey Governor's office at the time for Don
die Francesco, who was the acting governor after Christy Todd
Whitless that sellout went over to the EPA. And yeah,
all my friends would go up to Newark on weekends
and help Corey Booker. So how far he's come because
he's a grand standing, grand standing grand stander. And this

(01:03:21):
is what he said, cut number six.

Speaker 13 (01:03:23):
This is saying, let's just give up even more of
our consoler's authority because hey, he can do a lot
worse later on. And so to me, that's capitulating to
someone who's already showing that he's reckless and willing to
do a lot of destruction. We are in a perverse
Bizarro land where we're having to decide between letting Donald
Trump wreck the government this way or wreck the government

(01:03:44):
that way. So at what point do.

Speaker 17 (01:03:46):
You say, I'm going to stand and fight if you
guys want it.

Speaker 1 (01:03:49):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:03:50):
Is this your spartacust moment?

Speaker 1 (01:03:51):
Part two?

Speaker 2 (01:03:52):
Spartaga's moment to redo. That's the question I think.

Speaker 1 (01:03:56):
I think Congressman Ship Roy put it best on why
on why these Democrats are in such a pickle on
this whole thing. Hey, it's their spending, but b it's
going to give Donald Trump a win. They don't like
it because really, Trump could have come out and told
the party we got to fight this, and they could
have had a big war over this, and they could have.
But no, he got everybody, with the exception of Tom Massey

(01:04:16):
to vote for it. And I have great respect for
Tom Massey. I'm not going to pick on him. I'll
defend Tom Massy all day long. But he got everybody
in the House except for Tom Massey to go along
with it. That's a big deal. That's a big win.
To muster up that kind of political support in the
House of Representatives among Conservatives, and you're dealing with twenty
five or so Freedom Caucus members who really had to
hold their nose for this is a big political victory.

Speaker 2 (01:04:38):
There's no other way to describe it than that cut
number ten.

Speaker 11 (01:04:42):
Chuck Schumer, he's in a box because the Republicans let
on this. We made it very clear that we wanted
to make sure we want it allowed Elon does to
President russ vote to do their hard work of identifying
all of the waste, run, abuse, and government that Democrats
have been funding for all these years. Schumer was blustering.
He was saying, We're not going to do this, We're
going to shut it down. We knew they couldn't do that,

(01:05:03):
because at the end of the day, they were stuck
between empowering the President and Russ vote to determine who
the essential employees are and going through and doing what
needed to be done they shut down, or continuing to
empower Elon and the President to do what they're doing
through Doge.

Speaker 1 (01:05:19):
Yeah, I mean, chip Roy is as conservative as you get,
as conservatives you get. So if ship Roy is saying that,
then okay, you got me. I'm in.

Speaker 2 (01:05:27):
I'll give you the chance do it. Let's get it,
let's get it done.

Speaker 1 (01:05:30):
Senator John fun who is the majority leader in the Senate,
is pointing out correctly that the left continues to appeal
to the wackos in their party, which is basically their
party at this point. If you run as a moderate,
you're running as an outlier in the Democrat party.

Speaker 2 (01:05:43):
Think about that cut number nine.

Speaker 18 (01:05:45):
But this is why they lost the last election. It's
these far left policies, the far left rhetoric, and appealing
to a small corner of the electorate instead of working
for the good of the American people. And there's a
lot of revisionist history right now going on among Democrats
and the Senate.

Speaker 12 (01:06:00):
I've heard a lot of them on the floor.

Speaker 18 (01:06:01):
And an interview is talking about how we got here.
We got here because they didn't do the work week
last year. We are cleaning up their mess and we'll
get this done and then we'll turn and pivot and
start focusing on fiscal year twenty six and the President's
agenda oh September, which includes reconciliation, attacks cuts.

Speaker 1 (01:06:19):
Yeah, let's do it. Let's make it happen. Or let's
just protest, shall we? Let's protest. Let's just go after
Tesla Dealers in firebomb Tesla Dealers, Pam Bondi announcing that
they have an indictment in that case. I shared that
with you earlier in the show. But you've got the
media all week has been suggesting that this is just
the resistance, like it's a Star Wars show cut sixteen.

Speaker 19 (01:06:44):
Like if you are attacking tesla's or dealerships, going beyond vandalism,
that that could be an act of domestic terrorism. But
I do want to ask about this as resistance. Is
this what resistance should look like?

Speaker 1 (01:06:59):
Yeah, I know, definitely. Yeah. Fire bombing car dealerships, definitely. Yeah,
keep going with that, keep doing it, You'll definitely win
hearts and minds to the American people.

Speaker 2 (01:07:06):
You morons. Absolutely, But a lot of this is organized.
As I mentioned to.

Speaker 1 (01:07:10):
You, there are groups out there that fund these people
to go and protest and go to town hall meetings. This
is not organic. I was part of the Tea Party
movement back in the day that was organic. This stuff
is not organic. This stuff is orchestrated. You've got very
powerful people, villains, true villains, who are funding all this,
No question about it, no doubt in my mind about it.

(01:07:34):
And here's Scott Jennings from CNN talking about the chaos
at the North Carolina GOP town hall. And there's these
town hall meetings all across the country where this happens
with these people show up and these are paid agitators.

Speaker 2 (01:07:45):
Cut seventeen Roy.

Speaker 4 (01:07:47):
Jor the hostess people's.

Speaker 15 (01:07:50):
You don't think Republicans were prepared for unhinged liberal mobs.
We've been dealing with this since Donald Trump one. And
believe me, I watched.

Speaker 2 (01:08:00):
I watched a little bit.

Speaker 15 (01:08:01):
I looked at the questions, why is he shredding the contract,
Why is he's reading the constitution?

Speaker 4 (01:08:05):
Puting this, putting that one guy to be escorted out?

Speaker 9 (01:08:07):
He was so unhand.

Speaker 15 (01:08:08):
How this is a.

Speaker 13 (01:08:12):
Mob?

Speaker 1 (01:08:13):
It is a mob, but it's but it's orchestrated, it's
paid for. And here's a liberal plant reading talking points
at that same town hall meeting we're talking about. This
is it was Representative Chuck Edwards in North Carolina. Here,
they distribute the talking points. They all go out and
say the same things. This is what they do. It's orchestrated.
It's not organic cut eighteen.

Speaker 5 (01:08:32):
Okay. So I'm trying to I'm trying to get your
opinion on this as a yes or no. Do you
support Trump on anything? Canada or Greenland? And do you
do you like the way he treats the premier or
the president of Canada calling him governor? Is that the

(01:08:54):
way you do as a diplomat? Is that the way?
Is that the way the United States should act to
our closest neighbors.

Speaker 1 (01:09:04):
Ah, oh, we've done is save Justin Trudeau's political career.
You realize that, right, I mean, he was out and
now he's had a resurgence. So if anything, Trump's done
Trudeau a favor, Trudeau was toast and he was on
his way back to Cuba allegedly Fidel Cadastro, And some
people think Fidel Castro is his father. Am I saying that, No,

(01:09:25):
of course not. Am I saying that he looks a
lot like Fidel Castro and acts like Fidel Castro, like
as a tyrant?

Speaker 12 (01:09:30):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:09:31):
Absolutely, did his mom play naked Twister with Fidel Castro
back in the day in Cuba? When yes, yes, yes,
yes she did. Does Justin Trudau look anything like his
father Pierre Trudeau?

Speaker 2 (01:09:42):
No, no, not even close. I look more like Pierre Trudeau.

Speaker 1 (01:09:46):
But we've said, we've really we we have managed to
give this guy a resurgence. And maybe that's actually also
part of Trump's long term plan, because if say, Pierre
Polavert got in there, he'd be a much more firm
opponent for the United States of America than Justin Trudeau is. Truly,
I mean no doubt about it. He's a he's a smart,

(01:10:06):
sharp guy. He's gonna put he puts his country first.
He's conservative, but he's he's the Trump of Canada. I
don't think Trump wants to deal with the Trump of Canada.
I think he wants to deal with Justin Trudeau because
Trudeau is not strong.

Speaker 2 (01:10:17):
He's weak.

Speaker 1 (01:10:19):
And the thing about Canadian politics is you could be
down last week, you're up this week. You could be
down again next week. So it's not a big deal.
It's not like we've given the guy another four years here.
He could still be out by the summer. But for
the moment at least, little little Justin, little fidel Is
is okay. For the moment in time, he's he's going

(01:10:39):
to be okay.

Speaker 2 (01:10:40):
It's the data show with me, rich Z the only

Urgent Care, the one that was around me was already closed.
It was after ten o'clock. I mean, it was just rough,
and I ordered medicine from All Family Pharmacy, had it
overnighted and was able to start my medicine literally the

(01:11:28):
next day. It was like almost Actually it was like

It's his life mission to make bad decisions.

Speaker 1 (01:12:20):
It's time for Florida Man. You know I love a
good alligator story, and it seems like every time we
do Florida Man these days we have one.

Speaker 2 (01:12:27):
So this is good.

Speaker 1 (01:12:28):
Huge alligator's surprises pizza delivery man on a Florida street
quiet night in Bradington, Florida, an eight foot long wandering
alligator came a center of attention. The question, of course,
is did the guy try to give the alligator any
of the delicious pizza? Because the pizza delivery man kept
asking about the delivery, where's my pizza, Where's my pizza?

(01:12:50):
And they found the pizza, got the cash for the
delivery man, and nobody was harmed in the making of
this alligator story in Florida.

Speaker 2 (01:12:57):
But there you go.

Speaker 1 (01:12:58):
You know you given the alligator pizza, everything would have
been fine as long as didn't have pineapple on. It's
just saying, if Florida Man is accused of setting fire
to a strip club, why why would you do that.
I don't understand with officers that they received a handgun
from the suspect said it on fire through a bottle
of urine at police as well. I don't know what

(01:13:21):
this guy's motivation is exactly, but apparently he looks like
from the picture he might be just morally opposed to
the Pink Pony showgirl strip club. That might be what
I'm guessing here.

Speaker 15 (01:13:33):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:13:34):
All right, coming up, the President previews what he's going
to say to the Department of Justice here on the
Dana Show, Don't Go Away.

Speaker 7 (01:13:39):
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 metals like
gold and silver. I partnered with a great company that
makes it super easy to buy, easy, transparent and simple,

(01:14:03):
and that company is gold Co. They're a huge supporter
of the show, and they're the best at what they do.
And right now you can get a free twenty twenty
five gold and silver kit jam packed with critical information
about buying precious metals. It was a huge help, not
just for me, but to all of you. If you
do this and for my audience, you could also qualify
for up to a ten percent instant match in bonus silver.

(01:14:24):
It's a really great deal, so don't miss out. Visit

Speaker 1 (01:14:32):
And Dana will be back next week. In the meantime,
you're stuck with me for one more hour. It's Rich
Zioli from Talker Too at twelve ten WPHD in Philadelphia,
where I host the afternoon drive show three to seven
pm every day. You can listen on the Odyssey app.
I appreciate you being here, Thank you for joining us.
Senate Democrats are there. It's an open war right now.
After Chuck Schumer said he's going to support the cr

(01:14:54):
it's an open, open war in a battle, and it's
fun to watch. It really is is adorable. It really
is a horrible to watch as they eat their own
Typically Republicans do this, not Democrats, but here we are.
The President is going to speak at three o'clock today
at the United States Department of Justice joined with the
Attorney General m Pam BONDI. I don't know if the
President will address or they will address the recent swatting

(01:15:17):
incidents that have happened to conservatives across the country. I
opened the show with that. Today they will talk about
sanctuary cities, though, and I have a sense that the
big part of what they're going to talk about is
new ways to go after sanctuary cities.

Speaker 2 (01:15:30):
So what is a sanctuary city in America?

Speaker 1 (01:15:32):
A sanctuary city, as you know, is when the local
law enforcement does not cooperate with the FEDS when it
comes to criminals in their jail. And so you're talking
about somebody who's in the system, somebody who's in jail,
somebody who's actually literally a criminal arrested. And that's how
ICE knows the person's there. Ice doesn't have ESP If

(01:15:55):
the cops in Boston pick up somebody he's entered into
the system and that person is on a detainer list,
it gets flagged by ICE. ICE calls up the local jail,
the sheriff whoever, and says, hey, we want to come
pick this guy up in a sanctuary city. They hang
up the phone. Why would you do that. Why would
you want to keep bad guys and put them back

(01:16:16):
on your streets. I don't understand. Nobody understands that. I
think by implying sanctuary, you think of the old days
when used to run into a church, you know, get
sanctuary or something like that. We're not talking about people
that are not bothering anybody, just going about their day,
mining their own business, or as Representative Jasmine Crockett put it,
you know, picking crops and cleaning hotel rooms were Well,

(01:16:40):
that's what she said. No, that's that's what Democrat Representative
Jasmine Crockett said. You don't believe me, Well, here's the
audio of that cut.

Speaker 20 (01:16:47):
Twenty six are sending your kids to college to go
and work on it? Okay, well, guess who is working
the farms so that you can afford your food.

Speaker 1 (01:16:58):
So that you can have food, so that you.

Speaker 20 (01:16:59):
Can have Now, how many of you are looking to
send your kids into hospitality after this college education so
that they can go and make the bids at hotels.

Speaker 1 (01:17:09):
How many of you are.

Speaker 20 (01:17:10):
Planning to send your kids to college because that's what
we do here.

Speaker 4 (01:17:13):
We send everybody house.

Speaker 1 (01:17:14):
How many of you.

Speaker 20 (01:17:15):
Are planning to senior kids to college so that they
can then go and build these houses. So the reality
is that so long as we live in a capitalist society,
there's always going to be someone or a group of
people that will.

Speaker 2 (01:17:30):
Do work that someone of the rest of y'all don't
want to do.

Speaker 1 (01:17:34):
First of all, beyond the fact that's just racist in
general and stereotypical, it's also so insulting to working class
people in this country who actually do build houses. There's
a lot of them that build houses, and there's a
lot of working class people in this country that, yes,
clean hotel rooms.

Speaker 2 (01:17:51):
I have news for you.

Speaker 1 (01:17:52):
But if you live in say, the state of Hawaii,
all right, the one of the most expensive states to
live in the country, if not the most expensive, you
work at a resort. That's their primary industry in Hawaii
is tourism. So yeah, the people that that clean rooms
in Hawaii are citizens of the United States of America

(01:18:13):
who happen to live in and probably can't afford anymore
to live in that state.

Speaker 2 (01:18:17):
But that's where they work. They work in that industry.

Speaker 1 (01:18:22):
But leaving all that aside, it shows you how also
out of touch to the left is where they talk
about how many y'all send your kids to college. First
of all, she doesn't actually talk like that. That's not
her real accent. She puts on a fake accent, Jasmine
Crockett to sound real in the streets or whatever. But
how many y'all send your kids to cout you see?
It's that elitism again. You're sending your kids to college

(01:18:42):
so they don't have to do anything with their hands
pit crops. You know, they're called people that pit crops
are called farmers.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
They're called farmers.

Speaker 1 (01:18:49):
And there's a lot of people in this country who
are farmers, work on farms. Believe it or not. They're
American citizens. So there's that aspect of being completely out
of touch with it. But the other point of this,
too is sanctuary cities are not about protecting people who
are picking crops, including hotel rooms. It's about protecting people
who are in jail, because that's how Ice knows that

(01:19:10):
they're there. And so these sanctuary cities are providing cover.
And we shouldn't even really call them sanctuary cities. It's
a bad term. It's a bad I don't like it.
I think we should call them cities that are aiding
and a betting fugitives of justice, because that's what that's
what happens. Look, if a guy's wanted by the FEDS
and he comes to your house and you and you
give him safe harbor, and then the Fed's knock on

(01:19:30):
your door, call you and say, hey, by any chance,
do you have whoever it is there? You know, let's
just say say do you do you? Do you have
Fred there? We have a warrant for Fred. And you
say no, or you hang up the phone, or you
refuse to cooperate, or you tell Fred how to sneak
out of the house and go back, and you've now
aided and a bet at a fugitive. Can you explain
to me how it's any different on the sanctuary quote
unquote sanctuary city level. I understand that under our system

(01:19:53):
of federalism, the state does not have to do the
federal law enforcement function and the Feds don't have to
do state law enforcement function. But at the same time,
to give save harbor to a criminal who's wanted by
the FEDS, that's against the law. You can't do that.
We can't do that. So how come the city of
Boston or Philadelphia or Denver or wherever, how come they're

(01:20:13):
allowed to do that and get away with it. I
understand if they don't want to have their local cops
deal with giving that person over to ICE.

Speaker 2 (01:20:22):
I understand that.

Speaker 1 (01:20:23):
But if I says, hey, we want this person, we're
gonna come pick them up, even if even if they
say okay, well we'll release them tomorrowt one pm, and
then ICE shows up and they're waiting outside the courthouse
at one pm or the jail cell wherever it is. Yeah,
that's that's understandable, that's what you would do. But in
this case now they just hang up the phone. They
don't cooperate, So that's giving you. You're aiding at a

(01:20:45):
betting a fugitive of justice. So yeah, they need to
go after these sanctuary cities. It's it's insane to be
that they do this. And the people that live in
the cities. Guess what, they don't want these sanctuary cities.
They don't want this. They want these criminals off their streets.
They want the criminals off their streets. Now, the Democrats

(01:21:06):
civil war that's going on right now just escalated as
the vampiric one. Nancy Pelosi has come out and said
she does not agree with Chuck Schumer on the Continuing Resolution.
Hakim Jeffries, who is the minority leader in the House
of Representatives, was asked the question have you lost confidence
in Chuck Schumer? Cut twenty eight? Peter Jeffries, Your Senator

(01:21:30):
Chuck Schumer is from your state. He is clearly a
different view of this than you. He is not saying
let's go back to the Negotian cable.

Speaker 16 (01:21:37):
He's saying, let's take this vote.

Speaker 2 (01:21:38):
So do you have you lost confidence in him?

Speaker 1 (01:21:41):
The fact that you guys see this so differently.

Speaker 5 (01:21:43):
Next question, I'm gonna go back to my colleagues, question,
can you clarify what you mean by chuldale versus studdown?

Speaker 1 (01:21:51):
Next question, I'm not going to comment on Chuck Schumer,
but Nancy Pelosi did, and she came out and she's very,
very upset by this.

Speaker 2 (01:21:57):
She's very upset by this. The vampiric one Nancy see.

Speaker 1 (01:22:00):
According to a townhole dot com, Pelosi statement on the
government funding bill in the Senate Speaker Emeritus Nancy Pelosi
issued the following. First of all, that's not a real
nick that's a ceremonial nickname. You're really putting that into
your press release? The mamm These people have gigantic egos,
are they not. Donald Champanne Line Moscow off for the

(01:22:21):
Congress of false choice between a government shutdown or a
blank check that makes a devastating assault on the well
being of working families across America. Let me be clear. Now,
there's a good option for the American people, but this
false choice that some are buying instead of fighting is unacceptable.
I salute Leader Hakem Jeffries first courageous rejection of this
false choice, and I'm proud of my colleagues in the
House Democratic Caucus for their.

Speaker 2 (01:22:42):
Overwhelming vote against the bill. She has a vampire.

Speaker 1 (01:22:46):
It's true, and this is why every intern season there's
not many virgins on Capitol Hill. But if there is
a virgin in an intern class, that person usually disappears
and winds up becoming That's the rumor. I don't know if
it's true or not, but that's what I've heard. Democratic
Senator she listened to this woman, Appropriations Leader Rosa Deloro.
Oh she's the hottie with the purple hair. Oh she's

(01:23:09):
a smoke show. She's like ninety seven years old. I
think she was scowling during Trump's joint address to Congress.
If you looked over with a purple haired, crazy old
woman scowling, that's Representative Rosa Deloro and Patty Murray have
eloquently presented the case that we must have a better choice,
a four week funding extension, keep government open, and negotiated
bipartisan agreement. America has experienced a Trump shut down before,

(01:23:31):
but this damaging legislation only makes matters worse. Democrats must
not buy into this false choice. We must fight back
for a better way. Listen to the women, for the people, eh,
for the children. So she's having a belt down. AOC
is having a meltdown. It's not good part of me.

(01:23:53):
It's not good for the Democrats right now. They are
just looking like this is a total train wreck. And
I guess the only question as we all sit back
and laugh at this, is how much worse is this
going to get for them? You know, James Carville came
out a little while ago and said, the Democrats are
breaking all the rules by the way they're going after
Trump and all their antics and all the other crazy

(01:24:14):
things that they're doing. They're breaking all the rules on this.
This is not the way it's supposed to be. This
is not how it's supposed to be. In terms of
pushing back, they look like fools. Remember during the twenty
twoinet fourth election, when they were looking at who Kamala
Harris was going to pick as a running mate, several
names came forward, one of them, of course, being Pennsylvania
Governor Josh Shapiro. They couldn't pick him because he was Jewish,

(01:24:37):
and there's too many people that they hate Jews in
the Democrat Party. It's the bottom line. There's a lot
of anti Semitism in that party. So they didn't pick him.
They talked about picking Arizona Senator Mark Kelly. They said, well,
the guy's an astronaut, he's a hero, he was in
the military. He's exactly what we need. A boring white guy.
Well he's he's going to show Elon once and for all.

(01:25:01):
He's gonna set Elon Musk straight cut twenty seven.

Speaker 15 (01:25:05):
So have a really hard time driving around in this thing.
So I think it's time for an upgrade today. So
this is going to be my last last trip in
this car. There are some things I really liked about it.
There are things I didn't like about it, but that
doesn't matter. What matters is, you know, doing the right thing.
I think it's time to get rid of it. You know,

(01:25:26):
Elon Musk kind of turned out to be an acohol
and I don't want to be driving the car built
and designed by it all, so looking forward to money.

Speaker 1 (01:25:39):
And that's what the actor Jason Bateman said too. He
said he was selling his Tesla because the entire thing
like a giant magasticker. So the people that one time
used to brag and virtue signal that they were driving
Tesla's are now getting rid of them because they don't
want to drive the hate mobile. The hate mobile. No really,

(01:26:00):
who is this guy on on X the other day
called it that the hate mobile? Done on and on
and on a Batman to the hate Mobile. It's the
Dana Show. We've got a lot to chat about before
we can wrap up today.

Speaker 2 (01:26:10):
It's a busy afternoon.

Speaker 1 (01:26:12):
President Pam Bondi, nd FBI Director Cash Bettel will speak
of an Apartment of Justice. We'll find out what the
topics are as we continue and get a little bit closer.

Speaker 2 (01:26:20):
It's rich in for data. Don't go away.

Speaker 7 (01:26:22):
It's our friends over. It's the non firearm firearm, It's
the burn a gun. The burnagun is well, it doesn't
care about gun for his own science doesn't care about
any of that stuff. The burn a gun is a
great way to diversify what you have already for your weapon,
for your weapons. I have friends and when I first
heard about it, I had a friend who lives in
DC and they have their they have their license. It's

(01:26:43):
really difficult to get one of those carry licenses in
DC's but in DC, but my friend has it.

Speaker 4 (01:26:48):
And unfortunately they're not able to carry.

Speaker 7 (01:26:50):
It, like in ninety percent of the places because the
municipal and private property and all that stuff. But because
of the nature of their work, they have to walk
to their car late at night sometimes and that's pretty dangerous,
especially in a you know, high crime city. So they
went and they got a burn a gun. They got
specifically the SD. It's their best selling model. It shoots
chemical irritant projectiles that can disable threats from up to
fifty feet away. When you compare it to average stunt guns.

(01:27:13):
Stunt guns are what one or two rounds. Burna SD
offers five and there are different models. This is the
most popular one. You have instant wadiness, there's no recoil
and again five round capacity.

Speaker 4 (01:27:25):
This is a great way to diversify.

Speaker 7 (01:27:26):
I mean you carry knives, you carry blades, so this
makes sense especially in those kind of difficult areas. Again
doesn't care about gun for his zone signs, no wating period,
no background check. It ships a right to your door
right now. You can get ten percent off of your purchase.
But the only way to do that is to go
through burna dot com slash data and see everything that
they have by r Ina dot com slash data for

(01:27:47):
ten percent off.

Speaker 8 (01:27:48):
And now all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for data's quick five.

Speaker 1 (01:27:54):
So a n judge and a one time Columbia University
human rights fellow has been found guilty of wait for it, slavery.
That's right. United Nations judge convicted on Thursday of trafficking
a young woman to the United Kingdom and forcing her
to work as a slave. A Ugandan judge, Lydia Mugumbe,

(01:28:16):
forty nine years old, found guilty of human trafficking and slavery.
It just kind of don't hear that every day. A
UCF fraternity allegedly hit their pledges with cars in a
hazing incident police, say Sigma Kai at the University of
Central Florida, they were hitting their pledges with cars. It
just reminds me that's see an animal house. So they go,

(01:28:37):
they can't do that to our pledges. Yeah, only we
can do that to our pledges. Hazing is no joke.
Somebody broke a shoulder bolt or something like that, so
that house will probably get kicked off campus.

Speaker 2 (01:28:48):
I would imagine Warren.

Speaker 1 (01:28:49):
Buffett's latest move is sending an ominous warning about the
state of the housing market. We still are at a
time right now where there's just not enough inventory in
the market and people that want to buy houses camp houses.
But Warren Buffett is likely selling his real estate empire.
He has a big brokerage and it is now being sold. Compass,

(01:29:10):
the largest real estate brokerage in the country, is in
advanced talks to acquire Berkshire Hathaway's Home Services of America.
Compass is actually full disclosure of My wife used to
work for them. They're very up and coming company. But
the fact that Buffett is getting out of a real
estate business probably says a lot more than you think.

(01:29:30):
I know a lot of people who were agents, my
wife being one of them who just decided that they
wanted to get out of it.

Speaker 2 (01:29:36):
So that's very interesting.

Speaker 1 (01:29:37):
And speaking of the housing market, if you were looking
to buy a house in New Jersey, it might be
a good time for you because they keep having all
these bottles of whiskey still washing up on the shore.
It sounds like I talked about this yesterday and it
happened to another story today, whiskey bottles believed to be
from the Prohibition era washing up on the Jersey. Sure,
this stuff's worth a ton of cash. By the way,

(01:29:59):
this is with a lot of money. If you're lucky
enough to get your hands on this stuff, well, ay,
drink it, then refill it with iced tea and then
try to sell it. I'm kidding, but no, this is
a lot of stuff. And the other question too, that
some people are wondering regarding all this is whether or
not there's gonna be a situation.

Speaker 2 (01:30:15):
Where in Robert F.

Speaker 1 (01:30:19):
Kennedy's world, will people start having soda being stored up
so they you'll come back and find a twenty twenty
five vintage bottle of Mountain dew is that's going to
probably wind up becoming illegal.

Speaker 2 (01:30:31):
If Robert IF. Kenny Junior has his way.

Speaker 1 (01:30:32):
Well, I don't know if he really will ban soda,
but certainly a lot of people are trying to stay
away from drinking all that stuff. And you know, the
other thing too, is that there's a new thing now
with cloning of keyfobs. So high tech car thieves are
cloning keyfobs to steal newer vehicles. Remember in the old days,
you used to get the club put on your steering

(01:30:53):
wheels that they couldn't drive. Well, those days are gone,
and then they would try to get your keys and
copy them.

Speaker 2 (01:30:57):
Well, what's happening right now.

Speaker 1 (01:30:59):
Is that people are going in, they're taking those little
keyfobs that you give, they're getting them copied and then
using them to steal cars.

Speaker 2 (01:31:07):
I know it's very high tech, so just be careful
about that.

Speaker 1 (01:31:11):
And many times this often happens, believe it or not,
when you drop your car off at the valet.

Speaker 2 (01:31:15):
So there's that.

Speaker 1 (01:31:16):
And finally, if you're wondering about the new Superman trailer,
they're saying April first, it'll be unveiled at Comic Con.
I personally am looking forward to that because well not
only am I nerd, but my son and I bond
over superhero movies, and I've been disappointed with everything Marvel's
put out in the last several years. So I've got
I'm hoping. I'm hoping nobody's ever going to top Christopher Reeve.

(01:31:37):
He was the goat. He was the greatest, he really
really was. But I got high hopes for this anyway,
It's a Danish show coming up. More of Me, Don't
go away.

Speaker 7 (01:31:46):

Speaker 1 (01:33:02):
Firwick Disaster Baby, that's a great one, Thank you, Steve.
And that is really what the Democrats are doing right now,
which is flirting with absolute political disaster, no doubt about it,
as they continue their own internal civil war right now
over the cr but also too, just broadly nationally right now,
just looking nutty in every single way.

Speaker 2 (01:33:21):
I mean just looking nuts.

Speaker 1 (01:33:24):
I mean even Carbo coming out and criticizing them for
how they're acting and how they're looking, and they just
look like a bunch of fools. They look like a
bunch there's no other way to put it. Looking a
bunch of nuts.

Speaker 2 (01:33:35):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:33:35):
So I wanted to talk about that as the show
goes on today, but I also thought it was really
important to discuss something else that's happening right now. You know,
the President's going to go to the Department of Justice
is going to have this big press conference at a
little bit after three o'clock today with the Attorney General
of the United States Pambondi and with the FBI Director
Cash Bettel.

Speaker 2 (01:33:55):
I want to find out about the Epstein files. I
really do.

Speaker 1 (01:33:58):
I'm really anxious about this. I'm I'm I wanted. I
want to I want to do it. I want to
do it right. I want to get this done right.
I want to get all the answers out there. I
had a congressman from Pennsylvania on my show the other day.
His name is Congressman Scott Perry, and he's a great guy,
and he's on the Intelligence Committee, and I asked him

(01:34:18):
about the Epstein files, and he said to me, he said, look,
you know, the bottom line is this. He said, if
Jeffrey Epstein was a it was an asset of the
intelligence community. Why were they using this guy? Why would
they use him? I don't understand this. He he's a pervert,
he's a pedophile. He was going after young kids and

(01:34:40):
young girl, maybe not a pedophile, instead of going after
like really young kids. But he was under the laws
of what would define somebody as a pedophile, of going
somebody under the age of consent, certainly, and he was
putting bringing powerful people down there to Lolita Island. And
what's what was up with that? Why did we do
it with this guy? What was the point of this?
What did we get out of this? And I'd like

(01:35:03):
to know, because I think Jeffrey Epstein, by all accounts,
probably was an intelligence asset. They remember that time he
had an apartment in New York City and the FBI
raided the apartment.

Speaker 2 (01:35:14):
They had a search warrant searching the apartment.

Speaker 1 (01:35:17):
The safe is there, and they see in plain sight
all these pictures and CDs and everything else, I mean,
real stuff that you would say gives them probable cause
to take it, and they left.

Speaker 2 (01:35:29):
And why do they leave?

Speaker 1 (01:35:30):
They said they didn't have a warrant for the contents
of the safe, but they never called the judge, never
got a judge on the phone to get an emergency
warrant or anything like that. They left and they went,
so then when when did they come back? Four days later?
Four days later? Does that sound normal to you in
that sense?

Speaker 5 (01:35:51):
Is that?

Speaker 1 (01:35:51):
No, not so much, not so much. So I want
to know what Jeffrey Epstein's real role here was. I
think it was probably a blackmail people and get them
to do the bidding of the United States of America
by putting them in incredibly compromising positions. I guess, I'm guessing.
Maybe we'll see. But the other thing, too, is that

(01:36:12):
I'd like to know who on that list is in
very high powerful positions within our government. I'm not worried
about Trump being on there. Trump distanced himself from Epstein
after Epstein got arrested in Florida for the first time
he was with underage girls, but a lot of people
kept hanging out with them after that. So anybody who

(01:36:32):
was hanging out with Epstein pre that arrest, you could
argue that they didn't know what was going on. They
didn't know. But once he gets arrested for that, at
that point, if you're still powering around with the guy,
that's problematic, which is why Bill Clinton, who still powell
around with Jeffrey Epstein after that arrest in Florida.

Speaker 2 (01:36:50):
That's why everybody says this is creepy.

Speaker 1 (01:36:53):
But finding out that Bill Clinton was on the Epstein
flight is no surprise there. It's like finding out that
there was a pilot on the plane. Yeah, you'd expect that.
He expected Will Clinton there is probably on every flight,
so that we're looking into that too to see what
they say about that. The President also mentioned today that
they were going to talk about dealing with the legal
immigrants as well. So the President is talking about invoking

(01:37:13):
something that is a very very old law in the
United States of America that the President has the ability
to use, and it deals with illegal immigrants, and it
gives the president extended powers over the issue. It's a
seventeen ninety eight act called the Alien Enemies Act, and
he's going to use this now to carry out deportations

(01:37:35):
to Guantanamo, planning to invoke a wartime law known as
the Alien Enemies Act of seventeen ninety eight as soon
as today, to authorize the summary deportation of some migrants,
including to Guantanamo Bay, escalating his government wide immigration crackdown.
Multiple US official submar with the plan told CBS the
two hundred and twenty seven year old law gives presidents

(01:37:56):
the extraordinary power to order the arrest, attention, and deportation
of non citizens who are fourteen years or older and
come from countries staging an invasion or predatory incursion of
the United States. Particularly now, he's going after trenday Arragua.
That's the gang, the gang trendy Aragua. President expected to

(01:38:20):
cite the eighteenth century statute to order the swift attention
and deportation of suspected members of trendy Urugua, a Venezuelan
gang with prison origins that his administration has designated a
foreign terrorist organization. Officials have made preparations to send suspected
gang members to the US Naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba,
soon after mister Trump invokes the Alien Enemies Act. Two

(01:38:41):
of the US officials said, at mister Trump's direction excuse me,
officials have been detaining some migrants awaiting deportation at the
naval base, though the holding facilities were left empty earlier
this week. Those subject to the Alien Enemies Act would
not be allowed to have a court hearing or an
asylum interview, since they would be processed under an emergence
to see wartime authority, not immigration law. Instead, they would

(01:39:04):
be eligible to be detained and deported with little or
no due process under Title fifty, the section of the
US Code housing America's War and Defense laws. It's only
been used a few times in US history, including during
World War II, when the government used it to surveil
and detain Italian, German, and Japanese immigrants in the US.

(01:39:24):
It's invocation atark migrants from countries in which the US
is not actively at war is almost certain to face
legal challenges.

Speaker 2 (01:39:31):
Will everything faces legal challenges these days.

Speaker 1 (01:39:35):
He's previewed the invocation of the Alien Enemies Act in
an executive order that he issued at his first day
back in the White House by saying the following quote.
By invoking the Alien Enemies Act of seventeen ninety eight,
I will direct our government to use the full and
immense power of federal and state law enforcement to eliminate
the presence of all foreign gangs and criminal networks bringing
devastating crime to US soil. He actually said that in

(01:39:58):
his immigration in his inaugural address as well, so we'll
find out if that's also something the President is going
to do today. He's also going to ask judges to
stop governing the entire nation from courtrooms, which is long overdue.
We talked about this on the show when the news
broke that a federal judge had stopped the President of

(01:40:20):
the United States of America from literally being able to
fire anyone.

Speaker 2 (01:40:25):
Anyone, and a federal district court judge.

Speaker 1 (01:40:29):
Even came out and said that the Office of Personal
Management can't even help the president figure out how to
fire people. So as part of this today, the President
of the United States of America, with the Attorney General there,
I imagine, may address this as well. But he's asking
Scotus to please, can you please ask these judges knock

(01:40:51):
it off, all right, stop governing the entire nation from
their courtrooms. Judges should not be able to govern the
whole nation from their courtrooms by issuing you universal injunctions
that block policies across the entire country while litigation is pending.
District courts have issued more universal injunctions and tros temporary

(01:41:12):
restraining orders during February twenty twenty fifth a loan than
through the first three years of the Biden administration. Let
me say that again, because I think that that really
drives home the point, does it not? District courts. I've
issued more universal injunctions and tros temporary restraining orders during
February twenty twenty five alone than through the first three

(01:41:37):
years of the Biden administration. That sharp rise in universal
injunctions stops the executive branch from performing its constitutional functions
before any courts fully examined the merits of those actions,
and threatens to swamp this Court's emergency docket.

Speaker 2 (01:41:55):
This court being the Supreme Court, obviously. Now these are
district judges.

Speaker 1 (01:42:01):
The President of the United States is the only elected
official elected for the entire country. The only one is one.
This is one. It's him. Nobody elects district court judges
number one, number two. They have their district but their
rulings apply to the entire country. It's an abusive power.
It is abuse of the judiciary, and it's got to stop.

(01:42:24):
Has to stop. Is tyranny of the judicial branch, It
absolutely is. I mean, what's the point of having elections, really,
what's the point of having elections? Ibergan people vote for
this guy. He wins the electoral College, when's the popular vote,
wins all seven swing states, and then he gets to
get stopped by some judge you've never heard of, who
wasn't elected by anybody whose actual district covers like two

(01:42:48):
or three states, and his order now holds for the
entire country, all fifty seven states, to quote Barack Obama. Now,
it should not be that way, and they're doing this purposely.
A lot of these judges are doing this simply to
just help with the resistance of Donald Trump. Their arguments
are not based in any law, they're not based in

(01:43:09):
any fact. They're just stopping him. They're just trying to
stop him. Hey, look, major issues like birthright citizenship, which
you are going to be decided by the United States
Supreme Court, ultimately should not be left up to a
federal judge. And the only thing federal judges should do
is just pass the baton over to the Supreme Court
on these major issues, and if a Supreme Court has

(01:43:32):
a problem, the Supreme Court can stop it if they
want to, and then you have that battle. You know,
Supreme Court can put a temporary injunction on it and
then have actual arguments on it. But enough with the
federal district judges. Already enough is enough, and the Chief
Justice has a power to ring these people in these cases,
which involve challenges to the President's January twentieth, twenty twenty

(01:43:52):
five executive order concerning birthright citizenship raise important constitutional questions
with major ramifications for securing the border. But at this stage,
the government comes to this court with a modest request
while the parties litigate weighty merits, the Court should restrict
the scope of multiple preliminary injunctions that purport to cover

(01:44:13):
every person in the country, limiting those injunctions to parties
actually within the Court's power. Good and most of these judges,
you'll be shocked to know, are in Maryland, the District
of Columbia, and Massachusetts, so district Court judges in DC

(01:44:36):
obviously the swamp Maryland, basically the swamp Massachusetts liberal lefty,
lefty Land. Several Summe Court justices that previously expressed disapproval
of lower Court's use of nationwide injunctions.

Speaker 2 (01:44:50):
Justice Neil Gorst, who I love. He is one of my.

Speaker 1 (01:44:55):
Favorite justices of all time. He really is outstanding, fantastic outstanding.
He's a constitutionalist, he is a absolute defender of every
single one of the Bill of Rights. And he is
a guy who wants criminal justice reform. He wants to
end civilistid forfeiture. He's terrific. And he criticized what he

(01:45:15):
called a rash of universal injunctions. This was during in
oral arguments regarding the abortion pill case back in twenty
twenty four.

Speaker 2 (01:45:26):
And good, I mean, this is nuts. Its tyranny of the.

Speaker 1 (01:45:29):
Judiciary is what it is by unelected district court judges. Look,
it's one thing of the Supreme Court rules on this.
I remember when Mark Levin wrote his book Meant in
blackback in I think it was two thousand and five.
It's a great book, a musteret book if you have
not read it, it's outstanding. But he talks about the
Supreme Court of the United States with all of their
not inginess in lunacy. But he points out, but most

(01:45:50):
of the cases in this country are decided by lower courts.
A lot of them don't even see the Supreme Court courtroom,
so to speak. But when you're dealing with the President
of the United States of America and his executive orders
and his powers to have a district court judge be
able to stop the president a disrecourt judge to stop.

(01:46:11):
The man who's the only official in government who's elected
by the entire country is nuts and has to stop.

Speaker 2 (01:46:16):
It has to be reined in without question. All right, final.

Speaker 1 (01:46:19):
Segment straight ahead here, I'm a Dana Show with me

Speaker 1 (01:46:40):
Clarence Thomas actually said the same thing as Justice Gorsuch
in a separate opinion regarding all these injunctions by these
federal judges that try to block the president of the
United States of America. He said, and this is an
old article from law dot com back from twenty eighteen.

Speaker 2 (01:46:55):
As a matter of fact, he said, these.

Speaker 1 (01:46:57):
Injunctions did not merge until a century and a half
after the founding. It was the travel ban case, remember
the travel ban case in President Trump's first term, Trump v. Hawaii.
It was a federal district court judge who put a
hold on the president's travel ban of people coming from
certain countries, which she was perfectly allowed to do, empowered

(01:47:19):
to do under the law. Clarence Thomas said, and they
appear to be inconsistent. That is, these these injunctions, they
appear to be inconsistent with long standing limits on equitable
relief and the power of Article three courts. If their
popularity continues, this Court must address their legality.

Speaker 2 (01:47:40):
I was twenty eighteen.

Speaker 12 (01:47:43):
Then.

Speaker 2 (01:47:44):
Justice Gorsich also.

Speaker 1 (01:47:45):
Raised the issue of their jubious nature in the abortion
pills case when he said the same thing about these
federal injunctions. I mean, it's just it's not the way
it's supposed to be with the judiciary. Every person who's
a federal judge is not empowered to be a check
on the president of the United States of America.

Speaker 2 (01:48:03):
That's not the job.

Speaker 1 (01:48:04):
You have lots of jobs to the federal judge, but
being a check on the president is literally not one
of them. It's not you mean, you could argue that
in our three branches of government, the Supreme Court is
a check on both Congress and the executive. You could
argue that, although I don't know, I mean, it's marble
re view Madison, the first case that actually the Supreme
Court gave itself the ability to have constitutional reviews, so

(01:48:27):
to speak, of laws, but nothing and I mean nothing
within the actual constitution, says hey, federal judge. Guess what, youngratulations,
your federal judge. Now your check on the executive Yeah. You,
you and you alone, you and your district in Colorado
that encompasses thirty miles. You get to block whatever the
duly elected president of the United States does, even though

(01:48:48):
nobody elected you and you're not accountable to anybody.

Speaker 2 (01:48:52):
No, it's insane.

Speaker 1 (01:48:53):
So yeah, the Supreme Court has to deal with this,
and I'm glad that the President is asking them to.
And you notice he's being very nice about it, very
gentle about it. Just seems the court to come in
and just step in and say, uh, all right, this
has to stop. I got enough, this is enough, all right,
give it up. I hope that they do. All right,
So well, tune in. I'll be on the air now

(01:49:13):
in Philly in just a matter of moments. You can
join me there if you want to listen to the
Odyssey app. I'll be taking the President's remarks from the
Department of Justice. Because this is a this is a
first president. Attorney General and the FBI director Altogether, it's
been an honor filling in for Dana Steve.

Speaker 2 (01:49:26):
Thanks for all your help. I appreciate you listening.

Speaker 1 (01:49:29):
Keep me in your mind going forward on Twitter at
rich Zioli, have a great weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:49:34):
Thanks to Dane for letting me be here.
