Speaker 1 (00:00):
So even John Fetterman is coming out now and saying
a government shutdown would be disastrous for the Democrats. John
Fetterman from Pennsylvania, Welcome to the Dana Show. It's rich
is the only in for Dana again today. Great to
be back with you as the Democrats have their party
summit and try to figure out what the heck is
going on here and they can they save this absolute, stinking, sinking,
(00:23):
sinking ship of theirs.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
I don't think they can. I'm telling you.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
It's bad, it's ugly, it's bad, but not as bad
as snow White. Apparently the new movie that's coming out,
how snow White became a Disney nightmare, an absolute Disney nightmare.
So I was thinking about this because this is kind
of a remnant of the pre Trump woke era, but
it's delayed because it hasn't been released yet. And if
(00:47):
you think about how much has changed since Trump's selection
in terms of well, as I've said, and I'm not
the only one who said it, but Trump's victory was
the end of woke. But they made this stupid snow
White movie before Trump and probably never counted on him winning.
It's supposed to come out March twenty first, next week,
but it's ready shaping up to be a gigantic disaster
(01:09):
for the studio, and they've also they've also canceled a
bunch of interviews. There's controversy because Gail Goodeaux is pro Israel,
and of course they hate that. You know, the left
in Hollywood hates that obviously, so they hate that. But
Rachel Ziegler, who is the actress. And then there's the
whole thing with the the people formerly known as the
(01:31):
Dwarfs because they're not dwarfs now they're like the village
people or something like that, but not the cool village
people that's saying WYMCA.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
So it's a whole mess.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
And I just I'm thinking of this from the perspective
of our culture because Trump's victory being the end of woke.
As a dad who has two girls and I was
excited to maybe take them to see snow White. There's
no way I'm taking them to see this. But they
originally were gonna have I guess that the Dwarfs we're
going to be tall at first because they thought it
(02:02):
was offensive to the Dwarf community, and then they just
replaced them with animatronic looking, weird creatures that look like
garden gnomes.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
They really do.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
They look at garden gnomes, and that's not good either.
There's also a lot of jobs for members of the
dwarf community in Hollywood. So when you know there's an
opportunity to play a dwarf, if you are somebody who's
a dwarf, you're like, yeah, sign me up, I want
to play this. And that was a controversy when Peter
Dinklagh came out and he was upset that they had
(02:34):
dwarves in the movie, and so they replaced them basically
with weird looking cgi. But the actress herself is really
the cause of all of this because snow White is
a beloved classic, a beloved classic, and they were changing
it to go along with the wokeism in America when
they were filming this years ago. And you think about
how much America has changed since then, even from then
(02:57):
to now, really it's remarked. I mean, from comedy to
movies to commercials, etc.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Et cetera.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
So much has changed in Strump's selection in terms of
the I mean, I think it was always there, I
really do. I think I think there were a lot
of people in America who said, we don't want woke,
We just really don't, we don't want it. And they
were just kind of quiet about it, and they were
exercising with their dollars and showing everybody with their dollars
how they felt about things.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
But corporations weren't paying attention.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Corporations were doing things like putting, you know, a man
Dylan mulvaney as their female spokesperson on social media as
an influencer. So the whole thing has become a giant mess.
And of course the whole issue about the Prince and
whether or not the Prince is rapie the rape Prince,
(03:49):
which went to the whole idea of male toxic masculinity.
And I know it sounds silly in some ways, you're like,
all right, it's a movie. Who cares No, it matters
in a big way because the studio has spent a
fortune on this movie and now it stands to all
be an epic disaster for them. But I look at
this as a gigantic rejection once and for all of
(04:10):
wokeism in America. I think Snow White, which because now
is a total Disney nightmare and they're expecting it just
to lose a ton of cash on this thing is
so emblematic of where our culture is right now. An
actuate actress, excuse me, Rachel Zegler won't sing Someday my
Prince will come. In Disney's new live action remake of
(04:31):
Snow White, the Princess doesn't need a man and will
instead warble the girl boss anthem waiting on a wish,
but it might be a long wait. Variety reported that
this week there will be none of the typical red
carpet interviews for the film's premiere at the El Cappy
Tom Theater in Hollywood on Saturday, perhaps to avoid tough
(04:52):
questions about the backlash that's followed ever since Rachel Zegler,
Latina actress, rose to fame and seven Spielberg's West Side
Story and then trashed the nineteen thirty seven classic, trash
it up and down. So people were like, listen, we
love the we love the snow White. It's a timeless tail.
It was a great movie. It was a timeless movie.
(05:13):
Parents watch it with their kids. They love the snow
White ride. Disney kind of being the mothership of wokeism
all these years. If you think about it, really being
the mothership of wokeism, and Disney changed a bunch of
their rides because they thought the rides were offensive. And
then people turned around and said, hey, not for nothing, Disney,
but you charge like a billion dollars to come to
your theme parks, so you act all woky, but yet
(05:36):
it's the most expensive place on Earth. I don't know
if it's the happiest place on earth. It's the most
expensive place on Earth. I've taken my kids there, and
all I can tell you is nobody looks happy when
they're waiting in line for two and a half hours
to go on a ride that's three minutes. And then
you bring out, you know, you take your daughters to
the bibty Bop princess shop and then there's a guy
(05:57):
with a beard dressed in a dress to help your
little girls become princesses.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
That was a real thing. That was a real thing
at disney World.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
And Dizney doubling down on woke over all these years,
and then they wound up destroying the Marvel franchise too.
They had Marvel, which was a cash cow, and then
they went woke with Marvel, and then Marvel was a disaster,
and then it goes on to say that they're also
upset with gal Gado because gal Gado has been an
outspoken advocate for Israel and they don't like the fact
that she's from Israel.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
They don't like that either, so they want to try
to hide her as well.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Another ruckus was raised when the trailer showed the actors
had been replaced by CGI characters of The Highwood Reporter
reported Wednesday that the director claimed he was always planning
on using CGI and not the weird bunch of hippie
village people that they had walking through the woods, and
the CGI looks awful. I'm telling you, if you go
to a cheap garden store in your neighborhood and you go, hey,
(06:53):
can I buy a garden dome, It's going to look
like the Dwarfs from Saturday Night Live, although they're not
called Dwarfs because that's offensive too, apparently.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I don't know why, but I guess it is. So
I'm going to play this is a clip for you.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
This is the actress Rachel Zegler, a perfect, perfect example
of pre Trump's America and then post Trump's America. This
movie being a disaster because it's a rejection of woke.
I think it's going to wind up being a huge
loss for the studio. And I'll contrast that with a
new Superman movie that's coming out. James Gunn, who's the director,
who had faced his own woke backlash at one point,
(07:26):
was asked all these questions about, you know, how can
Superman be around in America now? And he's like, look,
he's an American hero. He stands for truth, justice in
the American way, like I know, but America is so toxic.
They're like, no, no, no, no, Superman's our guy, all right,
Superman's our guy. So woke is not something they're worried about.
With a new Superman movie. They might be able to
worried about some of the CGI and the trailer, but
(07:48):
they're not worried about woke. Here's Rachel Zegler, the actress
who's playing snow White.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Take a listen.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I mean, you know, the original cartoon came out in
nineteen thirty seven and very evidently so there is a
big focus on her love story with a guy who
literally stalks her weird weird, So we didn't do that
this time.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Weird weird, super weird, and then went on to go
on about all the outdated norms and everything else.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
So it's going to be a huge disaster for them.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
And while the song Someday My Prince will come as
long stood as a Disney classic, the actress announced last
summer at D two three, the annual Disney Expo, that
her snow White is not going to be saved by
the Prince. She's not going to be dreaming about true love.
She's dreaming about becoming the leader she knows she can be.
That attitude is upset David Hale Hand, whose late father,
Disney animator David Hand, was a supervising director for Bambi
(08:43):
and the original snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. He
said he won't be buying a ticket for the new film.
He said, quote, the original was the way it should be.
From what I've read, the new film bears no reflection
to the original story. It's so far off base that
it's ridiculous. In fact, he believes it's enough to make
his father and Walt Disney roll in the graves. They've
taken it and moved it into the politics of what
is woke. They've taken a beautiful and beautifully drawn story
(09:06):
and destroying what was snow White. Why can't they just
leave it alone instead of coming up with a different story,
make it a totally different character. If you're gonna do that, Yeah,
make a totally different character instead of doing snow White.
And of course snow White who had white skin, you
can't have white skin anymore. That was no, that was
really a thing. That was a thing, Well, we can't
have her be white. White skin is racist. Apparently, so
(09:29):
they made so. They got a Latina actress, and that
wouldn't be a big deal if it wasn't for the
fact that they made a point of saying, well, snow
White is white, and we can't have that with her
white skin.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (09:41):
There's a lot of white people out there. Why can't
you have a character who's white. I don't understand that.
I mean, I'm not talking about replacing black characters with
white actors. Why are we Why are we taking the
white skin and making it But can you imagine if
Hollywood did that and said, well, you know, the actors
a little too black, so we're gonna we're gonna tote
it down, not have such a such such black skin
in the actor, Like that's racist. That's insane, and it's
(10:04):
okay when you do it with snow white belt with
a white actress.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
I don't. I don't get that.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
And then they went on to say, is this guy's
wife took took a lot of issue and said David's
father took so much pride in the film, and he
would say, what have you done? It's a question many
people were asking after early filming shots emerged last year
showing Zegler's stand in leading a lot of dwarfs of
varying sizes, races, and genders. The lead actor Jason mccun are,
(10:29):
known as we Man in the Jackass franchise, slammed the
studio had said, you're replacing jobs that people could have
us as little people. It's for dwarfs. Why are you
hiring snow white and seven average people?
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (10:42):
I mean I get I feel bad. There's not how
many how many how many movie roles are out there
for people of that height, you know, like this is
their thing. So so instead of you could have had
a job for seven people in the dwarf community, now
you have no jobs for them and just bad sea.
But I think Disney you could look at you could
(11:03):
look at snow White. This movie as the Democrat Party
on the big screen really just an out of touch
mess looking to toy with no message, so purposely offending
people for the sake of being offensive to losing their audience,
losing their brand. They've done this with so many products
and movies and shows over the years. But America has
(11:25):
said enough. America has said enough, which is why when
the Democrats are meeting right now, if they're a little
party summit, there's an internal battle brewing over wokesm and
what do they do about woke.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
They've gone so far down the road of woke.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
That they don't know how to bring it back because
it's it's become their core constituency in the Democrat Party,
it really has, and they don't know what to do
because they can't win.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
They cannot win.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
And then Trump, who's the most anti woke guy on
the planet maybe in the history of the planet, gets
elected president, wins the popular vote and the Electoral College,
and this piece of garbage supposed to hit theaters next week,
but it was made pre Trump, it was made in
the height of woke, and now the studio is going
to lose an epic fortune on it. Which I say good.
And the Democrat Party keeps losing, which I say good.
(12:12):
But does this mean the Democrats will try to emerge
as somebody who's the non woke Democrat And if they do,
can that person actually even get.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Through their own primary process?
Speaker 1 (12:21):
We'll talk about that as well as the data show
continues on a busy day today. Will there be a
government shutdown? That is the primary question. And we're still
waiting on Rusher's answer to the peace seal that was
laid out by the Trump administration with Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
It's a big show. It's rich is the only in
for data. Don't go away.

Speaker 8 (14:10):
And now all of the news, you would probably miss
it's time for Dana's Quick five.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
So yesterday Robert F.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Kennedy Junior and the Maha Moms were all hanging out
in DC and they were talking about a bunch of things. Well,
it turns out sugar free slushies can make young kids
seriously sick. According to a new study. There's an additive
that they put in them called glycol which can trigger
toxic effects in young kids. Glycerol can trigger toxic effects
in young children, leading to drowsiness, danger dangerously little blood sugar,
(14:41):
and metabolic imbalances. It was a study published Tuesday in
the Archives of Disease in Childhood. Via the cases of
twenty one children with an average of three years and
six months, you fell ill within an hour of drinking
a slushye and a lot of them had a big.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Drop in blood sugar.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
So perfect time to start reimagining all the they put
in our foods? And are we feeling stressed sooner than ever?
The burned out generations Americans are feeling peak stressed earlier
than ever. Twenty five percent of Americans experience burned out
before aged thirty thirty, with gen Z and millennials reporting
peak stress at age twenty five. Financial concerns, politics, and
(15:19):
work pressure range at rank as the top stressers. Eighty
three percent Americans believe entering adulthood is more challenging now
than a decade ago, seventy two percent expecting it to
become even more difficult in the next decade. I think
part of the problem is that they're not adults until
like forty now seems to be part of the problem.
Not everybody, of course, but a lot of them who
(15:39):
would whine about that. Now, this is a fascinating story
right now as you look at America and just thinking
about America being healthy and happy and everybody five, America's
becoming a nation of homebodies.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Research led by a couple of people at the University
of California, Los Angeles found that for a lot of us,
we just like to hang out at our house, a
nation of homebodies. American Time Youth Survey studied how people
in the US spent their time before, during, and after
the pandemic, and with the pandemic, people started saying home
more and then that has persisted for a lot of
(16:12):
people where they just don't go out. Now, for me,
I've always been a homebody. In fact, it's funny because
my wife and I used to have a sign in
her house it said, let's just stay home. We had
that pre COVID. We're just kind of we've been homebodies.
I don't know, it seems to be the way it is,
but COVID changed a lot in that sense. But if
you think that cartels are nice, I think again. Mass
(16:33):
graves and ovens with charred bodies found an extermination camp
by a family searching for a missing person in Mexico. Yeah,
heartbreaking handwritten note was found at the grizzly scene. Cartels
don't mess around. And these piles of personal items included forger,
pairs of shoes, closed jewelry, and diaries, just very very
sad stuff, which is why I guess it also is
(16:55):
a good thing that immigration accounts for the entire US
population growth for the first time. What seriously, our entire
US population growth? The immigration accounts for the entire for
the first time?
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Are you kidding me? Oh man?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
All right, we go a lot to talk about here
on the Dana Show. Democrats can they save themselves? We'll
talk about it straight ahead.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
Gold Coat is the company to do it with. By
the way, if you're going to get into gold and silver,
this is the only company that I trust to do it,
and they're going to take care of you. I'm just
done with the incompetence of the government, the wasteful spending.
So I like tangible things right, and we're so not
out of the woods.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
Well Ramamanuel Rama, Manuel May run for president Man his
party's in tough shape. Steve Bannon was the latest guy
to go on Gavin Newsom's podcast. I really wish people
would stop normalizing this guy. It's really starting to bug
me here. He's just using you. This isn't like a
cancel thing. It's just the mean Newsom is going to
(18:53):
try to use whoever he can on the right to
normalize him. And the guy's a monster. Let's not forget
what he did during COVID. You remember there's a picture
of they had these skate rinks on the beach in California,
and bulldozers took sand from the beach and they poured
the sand over the skateboarding parks that they built so
(19:15):
that kids could not go there outside in the sunshine,
in the fresh air, and skateboard to stop the spread
of COVID. Like, that's the kind of nonsense this guy did.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
And I just I.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Really worry right now that we're normalizing a very very
dangerous guy because he didn't become governor California because he's
a dummy. He became governor California. He's a very very
smart guy. He also in addition to shutting down his
state for so long. In addition, I mean they arrested
somebody for swimming in California by themselves in the ocean.
(19:49):
There was a person swimming by themselves in the ocean.
I mean, just like, what, who are you gonna who
are you gonna give COVID too? The fish we were
worried about at the time, like some rogue fishermen, merman,
who's mermaid?
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Mr?
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Person who'd swim up and maybe you'd get COVID? I
was silly. So that brings us to what the Democrats
are doing today. So Democrats are all hanging out trying
to figure out how to get themselves out of this
mess that they're in, which is that they have no leader,
they don't know who's in charge, they don't know what
they stand for. They don't know how to appeal to Americans.
They just don't know what to do. So you got
guys like Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro there, Shapiro's there hanging out,
(20:30):
and you've got a bunch of other people nationally. But
the question really becomes, who emerges from this as the
new face of the Democrat Party or is it just
somebody who emerges who is just the face of the
Democrat Party? And nothing changes, nothing changes. Look Chuck Schumer,
(20:55):
when he was a Senate majority leader, he just kept
going with the CRS. There was never a battle to
shut down when he was in charge. It was just
you continue with the cr and that's what it was.
Now Democrats think they're going to die in this hill
of shutting down government. I'm telling you it's gonna blow
up in their faces. There's nothing bring it on. As
far as I'm concerned, bring on a government shutdown.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Fine with me.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
You can shut it down for four months, five months,
six months. Let's learn to live with really what is
essential and what's not. I'd love to see that what
is essential in what's not When it comes to government,
president has the ability to determine life and safety and
property and all those other things, so he can figure
out what's essential what's not.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Let's figure this out.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
If you really want to doge this place. If this
isn't all just talk, you really want to doge this,
then doze it. Start by saying to employees at various
government agencies, departments, three letter, four letter agencies, you don't
need to come in here, you're not essential. And then
see how America does. See if America survives, see if
America can get through it. And if America can, which
(22:00):
I know it can, then the question becomes, do we
need these people back? Because I mean, you can feel
sorry for them, but we got to shrink the size
of government here. And we always talk about doing this.
This is our moment right now, This is our moment.
And I think the American people are fine with this.
I really don't think the American people are turning around
(22:21):
and going, yeah, you know, this has to happen, like
this has to happen. We got to get our house
in order here. We have to do something. This government's
out of control, the national debts out of control. We
got to do something on it. Now, here's John Fetterman.
He knows how bad this would be if this were
to happen. So let's let's do this, Steve. Let's combine
cuts two and three. Here Senator Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman.
(22:43):
Now before I play these, let's think about who Fetterman
is and what he represents. So it is Pennsylvania, United
States Senator, the ultimate swing state of Pennsylvania, a state
that you could argue is very close to becoming a
red state. But you have a Democrat governor and a
Democrat United States Senator, and then you have a Republican
United States Senator Dave McCormick and Trump on Pennsylvania. You
have a lot of white working class voters in Pennsylvania.
(23:06):
They used to be that was the core constituency of
the Democrat Party. But the Democrat Party at a time
also had a guy who was the governor of Pennsylvania,
Bob Casey, Sr. Who was a pro life, pro worker,
not insane Democrat, and they wouldn't even let the guy
speak of the Democrat natural convention in nineteen ninety two.
(23:26):
Parties come very very very far from that point. They
want to pretend like they can't go back to those roots.
So here comes Fetterman, a guy who's outside of Pittsburgh.
He was the mayor of Braddock, PA. It's a rough
and tumble, working class kind of town. Fetterman, he's got
his tax he's got his shorts, he's got his hoodie,
hoping you don't notice the Harvard degree. And he comes
from a life of privilege and a life of money.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
And that's okay.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
I mean, hey, listen, I've heard the p word privilege
a million times. I don't know if anyone really comes
from privilege. I think life is hard no matter what.
But certainly Fetterman had a lot of advantages, them being money,
for example.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
But hey, he's mister blue Kahler.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
He's he knows that he cannot win, he cannot exist
in a party that continues you down the road of woke.
Yet he votes with the Democrats to keep biological men
playing women's sports, which is stupid because the ground zero
for all this was the University of Pennsylvania where the
swim team had to let a biological mail on the team.
(24:24):
But here's Fetterman talking about what would happen if the
government was shut down.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Take a listen, if.
Speaker 9 (24:28):
You shut it down, you will impact and harden millions
and millions and millions of Americans, and you run the
risk of slipping us into a recession or even all
kinds of other things. Is there Democrats are going to
have the choice to vote for whether you want it's
the cloture or the final one, you know, and if
(24:49):
you refuse to or you withhold your vote, you voting
about shutting the government down. And so that's always been
my point. Now, it's a CR that that we all
agree we don't like, and we don't we don't co
sign on all of those elements. But for me, it's
about we can't ever allow the government to shut down.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Here's what I don't understand about why you don't like
the CR and all seriousness. It's literally continuing the spending
that Biden signed into law when he was president. It's
the same spending. So what don't you like about it?
I mean, I unders say why Republicans don't like it,
and for a lot of them they had to hold
their nose to vote for it. But what don't Democrats
like about it? This is your spending. I mean, Republicans
(25:33):
voted to keep the Democrats spending going. So as conservatives,
there were a lot of us were like wait, well
you did what why'd you do that? But every Democrat
should be voting for this thing. This is this is
this is your stuff, man, this is this is your money.
It was your president who put this thing in place.
It was your party to put the thing in place.
Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia, Well, he says, you know what,
(25:54):
I think we're all going to be a big fatneh
on this.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Oh okay, why cut four?
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Well then through exactly where do you feel like Democrats
are going to be on home Trueville.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
And any moment I think we're going to all be
no on Kuolture unless we get an agreement to.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
You know, propose at least this thirty day clean cr and.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
Maybe a couple of others.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I'm fine with you guys shutting down the government if
that's what you want to do. I'm absolutely fine with it.
But you are going to own it.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
You will.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
You'll own it because Republicans passed it in the House.
President is waiting to sign it. A lot of conservatives
are upset by this because it's just keeping Democrats spending going.
But if you guys vote no, if you shut down
the government, it's on you just be prepared for that.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
It's on you. Here's Democrat Senator Tina S. Smith. She's
going to be voting no cut six.
Speaker 10 (26:48):
No Democrat wants a shutdown. Shutdowns are also.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
Really, really bad.
Speaker 10 (26:53):
But we're in exceptional times and a very challenging moment,
and I think that it's important and also that Congress
steps up and does the job that we're elected by
our representatives, by our constituents to do.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
So nobody wants to shut down, but we're an extraordinary
times here. Okay, hey, fine, let's do it. Shut it down,
because it's not really a shutdown. That's the thing. The
government still is operating, military is still working, and whoever
else the president deems essential gets to still work, and
then a lot of bureaucrats go home.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
I think they're playing with fire here, I really do,
because I.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Think what the risk that they run is that you
have a lot of these government workers home for could
be months, and you turn around and go did we
need them in the first place? And then maybe they
don't have to report back to work, which is ultimately
what Elon musk Doze and the president want. So this
could be their Jedi mind trick way of getting that
(27:50):
I don't know. I think they're playing with fire here.
But they're so terrified of giving the guy a win.
I mean, they're they're so afraid of that that they
of giving the guy a win. And yet this is
this is on them if they don't this. So the
meeting today trying to figure out where does a party
(28:11):
go on this. You've got certain Democrats who are watching
and waiting just to get the call from the bullpen. Hey,
you go in there, and you you jump up and
you you run in. One of the guys, of course,
being Gavin the hair Newsom, who sounds so much now
like he can't stand Gavin Newsom. It really is amazing.
Gavin Newsom sounds like he can't stand Gavin Newsom. Complaining
(28:34):
about how long it takes to vote and count the
votes in California. Well, you're the governor, fix it. Florida
does all their voting in one day, the count I mean,
and all the counting in one day and it's done
and boom, there you go, California weeks. You're the governor.
If you have a problem with it, do something about it.
Cut eighteen.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
California four weeks to count six perillion vote it's ridiculous.
Speaker 11 (28:57):
Why it's ridiculous, it's because it's and by the way,
we've been having this conversation enough and it's a first
of all, we believe that every vote counts, so we
want to make sure every vote is counted. Because of
the provisional ballots, the fact we do all mail in ballots,
the fact that we have such a huge investments in
making sure that we increase that outreach. We want to
make sure again every vote counts. But you're right the time,
(29:20):
right about the right. No, the right, absolutely, the right
is right, and you are right.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
You are right, you are and this is called telling
somebody what they want to hear. That was Michael Savage,
who was a guest on Gavin Newsom's podcast, You are right,
just like you said with Charlie Kirk when it came
to bio dudes and women's sports. You know you are right,
You're right. It is weird, It is weird. And he
goes on and says something else to somebody else. The
guy will say whatever he has to do to win.
(29:49):
That's who Gavin Newsom is. And my friend Susan Crabtree,
who wrote a book called Fool's Gold which is all
about Gavin Newsom and how he and the Left have
destroyed that beautiful state in California is beautiful. I mean
I think from just a pure beauty point of view,
combination with the beauty in the weather, I'd say it's
my favorite state by far.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
I really do.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
I love it. I love the weather. I look, but
it's nuts, it's crazy. And Susan crabs she wrote this
book Fools Gold about how the left has essentially destroyed
this and there was a story about how there was
a bronze statue of Gavin Newsom in California and it
looks bad.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Man, it really does. It looks bad.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Newsom said, as is customary, the effort was proposed by
a nonprofit and funded by private donors, not taxpayers, to
put this beautiful bust of Gavin Newsom with his beautiful
coaff of hair. Susan tweeted out and said, we one
hundred percent stand by our Gavin Newsom bronze bust vanity
project story, which my co author and I uncovered in
our new book Fools Gold. Team Newsom is afraid of
(30:50):
the shocking revelations in the book, which is backed by
more than forty five pages of endnotes containing more than
a thousand open source, reputable and verifiable citations with zero
an outomous sources. And that is why they are trying
to smear this book. The simple fact is that no one,
no one knew that Gavin Newsom used a corrupt pay
to play funding mechanism called behested payments to solicit funds
(31:13):
from his own companies to erect a monument to himself
inside San Francisco City Hall until we follow the money
and un earth the obscure documents. Furthermore, Newsom's team has
thus far refused to answer whether his company's got a
tax break for funding this charitable statue. Just like Newsom's
wildfire windfalls and shady communist Chinese Communist Party ties, his
(31:38):
statute is a scandal. Statue as a scandal, and we
stand by our reporting. It's a statue, not a statute.
But anyway, he wants to emerge, this reasonable guy, so
he gets guys like Michael Savajohn ste Batanon, Charlie Kirkhan,
all these other people, and you're normalizing this grease ball.
You really are this slime ball. You're trying to normalize
(31:58):
this guy, and he's gonna say. He's going to whatever
he has to say, whatever makes them sound normal, whatever
makes them seem like the alternative to the craziness that
you're watching right now in New York City, as you've
got all these demonstrations going on at Columbia University and
other places. And Andrew Cuomo's no dummy. He's going to
do the same thing. Andrew Cuomo, the lovegu who's now
running from AI of New York City. He came out
yesterday taking the side of Jewish students, saying that it's
(32:23):
far too long that they've had to deal with this
anti Semitic harassment on college campuses in New York City,
that places like Columbia, there was a time when Democrats
wouldn't have touched that. But Cuomo is another smart guy,
and he may be a serial killer, just like Newson
when it comes to nursing homes.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
But they get it.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
They know how crazy their party looks on this issue.
And it's one thing to allow protests, it's one thing
to allow freedom of speech. It's an entirely other thing
to be harassing Jewish students. And Cuomo knows the tide
is turning here, all right. More to come here on
the Danta Show. It's to be rich is the only
end for data. Don't go away.

and I ordered medicine from All Family Pharmacy, had it

Speaker 1 (34:38):
I guess you could argue that the idea of a
shutdown by Democrats would just wind up being such a
disaster that they would essentially back down quickly and give in.
But I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't see
it happening. I think they're just gonna they're gonna double
down on this, So then the question becomes or they
can regret trying to out hawk Trump. There's a piece
(35:02):
over reason dot Com. But I saw and I liked
what the author's thinking on this was. Michael Petty. This
guy Adam Smith, no relation to Adam Smith, will say
he's the lester Adam Smith. This guy is the congressman
from Washington, is a Democrat, thinks Democrats would return to
their anti war roots and be open to negotiating with
russ With Russia, that's that's amazing, right, And then you've
(35:24):
got some Democrats who are coming out and saying, we gotta,
we gotta, we gotta also cut the size of government,
which is not new for Democrats. Is what they did
when Bill Clinton was in there. They tried to do
a balanced budget amendment. They tried to get that done.
But this guy, this Democrat coming out and saying, we
got to stop being afraid to negotiate, you know, we gotta,
we gotta stop doing that. And he's the highest Democrat
(35:47):
in the Armed Services Committee. So we got that was
that was not a popular opinion among Democrats five minutes ago.
So much show that when the war with Ukraine started
and a bunch of Democrats signed a letter calling and
Biden to do negotiations and a ceasefire. That letter disappeared
really really fast. Then you got John Fetterman coming out,
and you got John Ftterman saying, we can't let there
(36:09):
be a shutdown.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
This is gonna be bad. We're gonna own this. This
this can really be bad.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
And then you've got a couple other Democrats that they're
a handful right now, but they're they're saying, we have
to also, we got to go along with ring out
waste for aid, an abuse in Medicare and Medicaid and
Social Security. We used to say this stuff all the time.
That's what we did. We used to say this all
the time. So yeah, changes afoot. Maybe we'll find out
(36:36):
I judges made a big ruling on President Trump. Will
tell you all about it. Hour number two straight ahead.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
Some breaking news right now, protesters are occupying Trump Tower
in New York City in support of that anti Israel
activist who's facing deportation. Welcome back to the Data Show.
Glad you're here. It is me rich Zooli in for
Danna today. You can treat me at rich Zeoli r
I c h Zeo l I at gmail, emcu be
(38:10):
rich on X. Protesters are occupying Trump Tower in support
of this anti Israel activist. There's there's a lot of cops.
I'm seeing the pictures on Fox News right now. They're
chanting inside Trump Tower. Trump's not obviously there. He's at
the White House. But if he's not at the White House,
he's going back to West Palm. He's going back to
mar Lago tomorrow. But he's not going to be at
Trump Tower anytime soon. But this is about getting attention,
(38:34):
and obviously they're getting a lot of attention. So that's
happening as we speak. The NYPD is out in full force.
They're arresting a lot of people. It is a private building,
and so you can't, you know, just have a sit
down in a private building like that and think it's
going to work out well for you. You're gonna wind
up getting arrested for trespassing. And that's what's happening. They
are getting arrested. Their shirts there say stop arming Israel
(38:57):
Jews for Jews committing Jennis, There's all kinds of other
things there. Again, I think this is this is the
broader problem which I've been raising about the deportation of
this Columbia student, is that at some point, if Democrats
are in charge, I could I could, I could see
them deporting a lot of pro Israeli students and pro
(39:17):
Israeli people who are here on green cards or student
visas because they view Israel as the as the bad
guy in this, and they view Israel as a party
committing genocide and all this. So at some point we've
got to be very careful about that what doors we're
opening here. I'll come back to that. There's a there's
a federal judge that just ruled the short time ago.
It's kind of breaking news on this story, and I'm
(39:39):
really sick of these these these judges who are not elected.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
These are federal judges.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
These are appointed, and they they think they've got all.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
The power in the world.
Speaker 1 (39:49):
So a federal judge has just ordered thousands of fired
probationary federal employees reinstated. The order invokes the order includes
workers fired from the Department of Veterans Affairs. Order the
Trump administration to reinstate thousands of probationary employees who were
fired last month from a dozen federal agencies. US District
Judge William Alsup ordered the Trump administration to reinstate employees
(40:12):
at the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Apartment of Agriculture,
the Department of Defense, the Department of Energy, an Apartment
of the Interior, and the Department of the Treasury. So
prohibitive the Office of Personnel Management from issuing any guidance
about whether employees can be terminated. How are we going
to strinth the size the government if we've got judges
that jump in here and are able to stop the
(40:34):
duly elected president of the United States, who's the head
of the executive branch, from trying to shrink the size
of the executive branch of government? Austi, How are we
ever going to achieve that if these judges keep stepping in.
This is a federal district court judge. These federal judges
have way too much power. They really do. They make
a ruling, They have a district, and their ruling applies
(40:57):
to the entire country. They're not elected by anybody even
within their district. They're not elected, They're appointed, they serve
a district, but yet their ruling affects the entire United
States of America. The president, who is elected by the
American people and who ran on cutting the size of government,
and who ran on trying to slash and close federal agencies,
can't go ahead and do that, even though he's got
(41:19):
the authority of the American people behind him. And I
would argue a mandate because an unelected federal judge jumps
in here and says, you can't fire anybody.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
And I'm going to go further, and I'm.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
Going to say that the Office of Personal Management, you
cannot issue any guidance about whether employees can be terminated.
So we're not even going to entertain the question about
whether or not these employees can be terminated. At some point,
the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court needs to get
a spine and tell these federal judges to stay in
their freaking lane.
Speaker 2 (41:49):
This is not their job.
Speaker 1 (41:50):
Their job is not to act as a check on
the president of the United States of America. That is
not with their job. That's not why they're there, that's
not their job. There's a federal system of the judiciary,
but a federal judge. In my opinion, one single judge
should not have the power to stop the President of
the United States from doing what he wants to do
with the executive branch of government. And if there's an issue, well,
(42:13):
the Supreme Court is going to rule on it, like
the Supreme Court did last week, because the problem is
too is it's like a ping pong game. You know,
one federal judge who jumps in and says one thing,
Another federal judge comes in and says another thing, Another
federal judge supersedes with that federal judge said. Ultimately, you
know it's going to be fought out the Supreme Court.
All it does is delay the process and cost us
(42:34):
money because we got to pay government attorneys here to
go out there and argue these things before federal judges
who were paid for by the taxpayers. And you know it,
the whole thing is a gigantic waste of time and money.
Trump got elected on this. Let the guy do what
he wants to do. Twenty one state attorneys general are
(42:55):
also suing to block Department of Education dismantling. There's a
argument there. Trump said he wanted to shut down the
Department of Education. What's the argument of these attorneys general
anyway from from these states, what business is it of theirs?
Speaker 2 (43:10):
If the state? What business is it to a state?
Speaker 1 (43:14):
If the federal Department of Education shuts down whatever the
state feels they're losing out by not having a federal agency,
Well then the state can take and expand and do
whatever they want.
Speaker 2 (43:27):
That's the beauty of federalism.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
So I mean, if I'm the governor one of these
blue states, from my ag is suing and the president
is successful and it we'd take an act to Congress ultimately.
But if they're successful in shutting down an Apartment of
Education and I don't like it, I can just expand
my own Department of Education. I mean, that's how it
works in this country. That's the way it's supposed to
work in this country. By the way, the White House
(43:50):
has pulled the nomination of the CDC director because he
didn't have he didn't have the votes. But the good
news is that Marty McCrary and Jay Bodicharia they're both
moving through the proper says they do have the votes
and they're going to get in. So that reform is
coming big time at NIH. But the White House today
pulled President Donald Trump's nomination of doctor David Weldon to
lead the CDC. Withdrawal came just before Weldon was to
(44:12):
appear for his confirmation hearing. They said he did not
have the votes he I guess he was a doctor.
Actually served in Congress from nineteen ninety five until two
thousand and nine. Had kind of kept a relatively low profile,
but this is the article I'm reading here. But his
skepticism of established science around vaccines made him a popular
(44:33):
pick among allies of Robert of Kennedy Junior, and as
recently as twenty nineteen he promoted the quote unsubstantiated theory
that vaccines could cause autism. He co authored a vaccine
safety bill with former Democratic Representative Carolyn Maloney which shought
to give control over vaccine safety to an independent agency
(44:53):
within HHS. The bill, which stalled in a House subcommittee,
would provide the independence necessary to ensure that vaccine safety
research is robust, unbiased, free from conflict of interest, criticism,
and broadly accepted by the public at large. I don't
see that as a problem here. I really don't see
(45:14):
that as a problem. I think that the problem you
get eighty something vaccines in the vaccine schedule you're supposed
to give a new born baby. What a lot of
parents are wondering is does this all have to be
at once? Are all these needed? Can we space these
things out? These are the kind of questions the parents
are asking. And by the way, another reason why Trump
got elected, because parents are turning around and saying, we
don't know what to do, We don't know where to
(45:35):
get answers on these things. We can't ask questions. We're
called the kook. And that's just that's the end of it.
And the minute you speak up and you challenge a
scientific norm, as they say, and let's think back to
Gavin Newsom again, the monster that he is putting in California,
a law that would take away the medical licenses of doctors,
(45:56):
take away the medical license of doctors who challenge the
scientific norms that the state decides stay gets to the
side the science. And if you challenge that, you lose
your medical license.
Speaker 2 (46:07):
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (46:09):
There's a quote here from Senator Patty Murray, Democrat, chair
of the committee. Weldon was going to testify before former
chair now she's a ranking member, saying in our meeting
last month, I was deeply disturbed to hear doctor Weldon
repeat debunked claims about vaccines. It's dangerous to put someone
in charge at CDC who believes the lie that our
(46:30):
rigorously tested childhood vaccine schedule is somehow exposing kids to
toxic levels of mercury or causing autism as we face
one of the worst measles outbreaks in years thanks to
President Trump, a vaccine skeptic who spent years spreading lives
about safe and proven vaccines, should never have ever been
under consideration to lead the foremost agency charge with protecting
(46:51):
public health.
Speaker 2 (46:53):
That's funny. I remember.
Speaker 1 (46:54):
I'm old enough to remember when Donald Trump was a
guy behind warp Speed, which led to the COVID vaccine,
which many people now regret ever getting.
Speaker 2 (47:03):
I saw this.
Speaker 1 (47:05):
They sell these things that the spike protein. How to
detox yourself from the spike protein.
Speaker 2 (47:11):
I don't know if it.
Speaker 1 (47:11):
Works or not, but I've saw a commercial for that today.
Detox yourself from the spike protein. But you see vaccines
like drugs, like food, like all these sacred cows. You're
not allowed to challenge those norms. So there had to
be a sacrificial lamb here. This guy's head a CDC.
Speaker 2 (47:29):
It was going to be him.
Speaker 1 (47:30):
Badicharia and Marty McCrary have way too much support in
broad popular culture. Most people had never heard of this
guy before. He's not anti vaccine, he has a lot
of questions around vaccines. David Weldon a skeptic. Isn't healthy
to be a skeptic on pretty much everything in life.
Speaker 2 (47:49):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (47:49):
I think I'm a skeptic about everything. I just had
a protein bar, for example, during the break, and I'm
reading the ingredients on this friggin thing supposed to be
healthy carb healthy protein blend which includes acid casin, whey
protein isolate, milk protein concentrate, milk protein isolate, whey protein concentrate, palm,
(48:11):
kerrent oil, peanut butter. Well, that's healthy unless you have
a peanut butter allergy, which case then this is a
weapon of war. Polydextrose, palm oil, hydrolyzed collagen, partially defatied
peanut oil, peanuts, a memorytherol Mani monoglycerides sunflower lesothin cocoa powder.
(48:36):
That doesn't sound too bad. Medium chain triglycerides almonds, canola, leceifin,
sea salt, that's actually bad for you.
Speaker 2 (48:44):
Now too, I'll explain.
Speaker 1 (48:47):
Shay oil, sucralose, peanut oil, taco feryls, taco feryls, and
sunflower oil. Well, the reason why sea salt are saying
is bad for you is because of the MicroPlace sticks
which are in the ocean from the sea salt.
Speaker 2 (49:02):
So now they're saying you got to use pink kimalan salt.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (49:06):
All I know is this, if I spill some, I'm
throwing it over my shoulder. That's all I know. And
the sunflower oils, well that's the seed oil, peanut oils
or seed oils, and I keep hearing how terrible they
are for you. And that steak can shake, that national
firm that Shane the burger chain switch over to beef
tallow to fry their fries in. But they may also
have some seed oils. And so there was all this
(49:27):
controversy about this. I think everybody should be skeptical about everything.
I don't think it's wrong to be skeptical about anything.
We were told for years that climate change was killing us,
the world was going to be destroyed. We're all supposed
to be underwater right now and dead in some sort
of underwater Atlantis.
Speaker 2 (49:43):
Yet we're not.
Speaker 1 (49:45):
I also thought we're going to be in an ice age,
which I was looking forward to, hoping the return of
the Wooly Mammoth would happen. I thought polar bears are
going to be extinct. There's more of those nasty sobs
now than ever before. Freaking polar bears, nasty. You ever
come across one, don't. It's not going to end up
well for you, is my point. It won't end up well.
What's wrong with being a skeptic? I'm literally everything in life?
(50:08):
What's not to be skeptical of? In my opinion, honestly,
in this day and age, in this day in which
we live in, give me the one thing not to
be skeptical of on Earth? On Planet Earth, seriously should
be skeptical about everything, because so much of what we
think we know has been told to us by experts
who are often wrong. All Right, these arrests continue here
(50:31):
outside of New York City, in Trump Tower, I should say,
in Trump Tower, and outside of Trump Tower we'll talk
about that. Plus, where do things stand with Russia and Ukraine?
Are we going to finally have peace? Let's hope we
have some peace. It's a day to show don't go away.
Speaker 7 (50:45):
What does living better mean to you? Is it more money?
A bigger house?
Speaker 12 (50:49):
Now?
Speaker 7 (50:49):
Think about this? What about how you feel physically? Every day?
Speaker 5 (50:53):
Life is so much better when you feel good. When
you wake up feeling great, you can do more of
the things that you love and you're ready to take
on the day. Pain is affecting your life, see how
Relief Factor can help change that. Relief Factor is a

(51:38):
dollar a day called one eight hundred four relief that's
one eight hundred the number four relief or visit Reliefactor dot.
Speaker 8 (51:44):
Com and now all of the news you would probably
miss it's time for data's quick five.
Speaker 2 (51:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (51:52):
So the first thing I'm gonna start with is in
my hometown of Philly, where I broadcast a meat heist.
We're fifty five one thousand dollars bordered in South Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (52:03):
Look at that.
Speaker 1 (52:04):
Yeah, it appears a group of beef bandits made a
big I gotta read this didn't.
Speaker 2 (52:10):
This is not my pun.
Speaker 1 (52:11):
This is a stupid local news station punt made a
big mistake during an attempted cargo heights in South Philadelphia
early Tuesday morning. Our truck driver was asleep, I'm a
thirty three hundred block of South seventh Street when he
felt things start to shake just after two am. He
called the police after looking in the mirror to find
four suspects loading boxes into an suv parked alongside a
(52:31):
pickup truck. And we're trying to steal fifty five thousand
dollars of beef. It's about one hundred and eighty four boxes.
Speaker 6 (52:39):
There.
Speaker 2 (52:39):
You go a lot of the South in the ports.
Speaker 1 (52:41):
You know, there's an old thing fell off the back
of a truck, you know what I mean. There's an
old sang and among my people it fell off the
back of a truck, but still.
Speaker 2 (52:51):
Better than this.
Speaker 1 (52:52):
Five men accused of blocking traffic with twerking. I don't
think men should ever twerk. I don't think men should
ever wear skinny jeans either, or winter caps with balls
on them. But five people were arrested Monday night at
police said they blocked a downtown intersection with their dancing.
They were twerking. They should go to prison for that. Actually,
they should go to getmo for that, in my opinion.
(53:13):
In Erie County, Erie County sheriff's chief hit seven cars
but wasn't charged. Buffalo police are probing the sister in
law's involvement. A chief of the Narcotics and Intelligence unit
at the Erie County Sheriff's Office is often heralded when
police agencies announced major drug busts in Buffalo. The Bar
Association even gave it an award a few years ago.
(53:33):
But now those actions and the politically connected family members
are coming under scrutiny after separate collisions, which cost taxpayers
about sixty thousand dollars in settlements. So you might say
certain people get a break when it comes to these things.
Speaker 2 (53:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (53:49):
Oh, and I was just informed Trey Turner hit his
first home run, Steve, thanks for letting me know that.
And spring training for the fills well, a major League
baseball team selling a hat with vulgar Spanish word. I
didn't get it before the internet got it. The New
Era Overlap pack collection unveiled on Monday. The concept behind
the officially license hat design is simple, but when you
(54:09):
look at the image in Spanish, it actually says the
word for boobs in Spanish, so that hat.
Speaker 2 (54:16):
Has to be pulled from the market. I guess why.
I'm not quite sure. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (54:20):
And there's a whole thing that's blowing up right now
on whether or not the Superman movie that's coming out
is going to have enough screen time of his dog
Crypto in it. Animal Lover's saying, we need more of
Superman's dog. I agree, We're coming right back.
Speaker 5 (54:37):
It is our friends over at Superbeats, the Superberine product.
It's a new product from newish product from Superbats, 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 to support
(54:58):
your metabolism and helps to support blood sugar levels. It's
nearly three times more effective than your diet and exercise alone.
Speaker 7 (55:05):
These are real results.
Speaker 5 (55:06):
It's super convenient, one easy to swallow capsule a day
helps you to do more to support those metabolic health
and 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 Super Beat's Heart shoes, So head you're
(55:27):
nearest Sam's Club, save on superbats artoes and the new
superberine from Human You'll love the way it makes you feel.
Speaker 4 (55:34):
Keep your finger on the pulse with a Danta Show

Speaker 1 (55:47):
So, the Secretary General of NATO is meeting with President
Trump right now in the Oval Office, and you thank
the President for getting European leaders to pay more.
Speaker 2 (55:57):
That's what he was saying.
Speaker 1 (55:58):
And this obviously comes as we're all wa to find
out if Russia is going to go along with the
peace deal that was laid out that Ukraine has accepted.
And I think one of the things that obviously Russia
is looking for is assurance that Ukraine will not become
a NATO member. That has always been Russia's thing on
all this. So remember Trump's whole thing has been getting
(56:19):
NATO countries.
Speaker 2 (56:20):
To pay their fair share.
Speaker 1 (56:22):
You know, it's what even saying that, you sound Democrats,
years and years of them saying you got to pay
your fair share, you gotta pay your fair share. Well,
the European countries have not been paying their fair share
for NATO. The United States has been essentially now the
gigantic funder of all this, and that's what the president
has vowed to change. Now they've said that he's anti NATO.
I don't think he could be anti NATO. If you
(56:42):
have the NATO Secretary General in the Oval office, it
doesn't doesn't.
Speaker 2 (56:46):
Seem very anti NATO to me.
Speaker 1 (56:49):
And obviously, by asking European countries to pay more, what
you're doing is you're saying that the obligation has to
be what's the word for it, what's fair, that's right fair.
The other one of this, too, is that the Russia
Ukraine conflict. Look, Ukraine is not in the it's not
on our it's not on our continent. It's a European issue,
and the United States has been helping and helping and
(57:11):
helping while the European countries have been giving Vladimir Putin
lots and lots of their money.
Speaker 2 (57:15):
A trillion bucks.
Speaker 1 (57:17):
A trillion bucks is what they've spent on oil and
natural gas for Vladimir Putin, given him, given him trillion
bucks for oil and natural gas that these countries need
because they need it. That's the bottom line. They need it,
and the United States of America is not going to supply.
They're going to buy it from Putin. So that's happening
right now. Will tell you what comes with this as
(57:37):
the show goes on today. But obviously this is a
this is a good sign that NATO is there. And
what I imagine is going to come out of this
today is an assurance that Putin will not have to
worry about Ukraine becoming a member. The President saying that
Putin agreed in principle to a thirty day cease fired you.
That's the breaking news coming out of the Oval Office
(57:59):
right now. Putin agrees in principle to a thirty day
cease fire deal. I have thirty days to figure this out,
work this out, and then come up to with a
I guess the pathway moving forward for a broader ceasefire
fire deal that will go on past that. But what
Putin said has long said, is he claims that NATO
threatens Russia in the Baltic He doesn't want NATO country
(58:23):
on their border, another NATO country on their border, and
that's his big sticking point in all this. So I
think what we'll find out here is whether or not
that's going to fly.
Speaker 2 (58:33):
Now.
Speaker 1 (58:34):
The Democrats are going to be all over this trying
to say that Russia should not be setting these terms,
Ukraine has to be a NATO member, and then if
they have it their way, they'll blow the whole thing up.
But luckily they won't have it their way, and hopefully
we can get our way out of this situation with
Russia and Ukraine without having to give them billions and
billions of dollars more money. As this is happening right now,
there's a takeover that's happening in New York City at
(58:54):
Trump Tower. It's a lot of breaking news today, and
that's happening as we speak right now, so we'll find
out about that. But let me shore I'll share this
audio with you. So if you think about the great
economic news yesterday that we had, we didn't really it
seems like the media kind of ignored it.
Speaker 2 (59:11):
They didn't want to give a lot of attention to it.
Speaker 1 (59:15):
Obviously, we keep hearing about tariffs and the potential on tariffs.
I keep thinking that the tariffs are essentially now meant
to be a gigantic bargaining ship slash negotiating ship slash
leverage that is being used. It did save the political
career of Justin Trudeau, though the threats on Canadian tariffs
now seem to have saved little Justin Trudeau's political future.
(59:38):
And I thought he was packing up and going back
to Cuba. I really did glad he was packing up,
going back to Cuba and getting out of here. But
turns out now it looks like he may be staying.
But a couple of clips I want to play. This
is Secretary Besant who said they need to make sure
that the government stays open. I'm not so sure we
have to really worry about this, mister Secretary don't think
(01:00:00):
we need to lose sleep over this, but nevertheless, Cup thirteen.
Speaker 13 (01:00:03):
Yeah, I can tell you what's not good for the
economy is this government shutdown. I don't know what Democrats
are thinking here, because they're going to own it, and
to the extent that it hurts confidence, hurts the American people.
We have had incredible Republican unity since January twentieth, and
the fact that the Democrats are in disarray, they're flailing,
(01:00:25):
and this is the best they can do that. I
think this is the economic story for the next few days.
Speaker 1 (01:00:33):
Well, first of all, I don't know if it's gonna
be bad for the economy, and I'll be bad for
the Democrat Party, be bad for them politically speaking. Is
it really gonna be that bad for the economy though,
I mean having less government busting chops. Secretary of Commerce
Howard Lutne says President Trump's goals to eliminate taxes for
anyone earning less than a hundred fifty thousand dollars a year,
I'd a huge that would be wonderful. I mean, anytime
(01:00:56):
you can get people to keep more of their money, great,
But why one fifty though? I think because in some
parts of the country, one fifty for a family is
not It doesn't go as far as you think. You know,
on the East Coast, for example, California, places like that,
it doesn't go as far as you think. I'm just
I'm curious that why that's the number, because really the
(01:01:17):
question should be if you're going to do that, if
you're gonna eliminate taxes for anyone earning less than a
certain amount, should it really depend on the cost of
living in your area, or should we just go to
a simple flat tax method and everybody pays the same
percentage no matter what they make. Because if you're if
you're making less than one fifty and it's it's a
flat percentage and there's no deductions and there's no loopholes
(01:01:39):
or anything other, then you're gonna you're gonna pay a
lot less than somebody who's making two hundred thousand dollars
a year. But they may be paying less than you
now because they've got good lawyers and accounts who are
able to get around all of the various taxes they
otherwise would have to pay without them.
Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
But either way, this is what the goal here is.
He says, cut fourteen.
Speaker 12 (01:01:58):
How about no tax on tips, attacks on overtime, how
about no social security, how about all those things. These
are the kind of thoughts that will change America. I
know what his goal is, no tax for anybody who
makes less than one hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year.
Speaker 9 (01:02:14):
That's his goal.
Speaker 2 (01:02:15):
So that's what I'm working for, all right.
Speaker 1 (01:02:21):
I'm all for giving people their money. I'm all for
letting people have their money. This is the point that
I was making when it came to this idea of
you got Doge. All right, so you have Doze and
you have this this notion of we're going to eliminate
waste for auden abuse. Great good, eliminate it, get rid
of waste for audn abuse as much as you possibly can.
Then they come out and they say, what if we
(01:02:42):
give every American five thousand dollars? And people said, oh,
it's going to lead to inflation because you're going to
put more money into the economy and people are gonna
go out there and start spending it.
Speaker 2 (01:02:50):
And you know, that's a bad thing. That's a bad thing.
Speaker 1 (01:02:53):
I think the difference though, in terms of that versus
what happened during COVID, when the government put out massive
amounts of spending designed to put money in people's pockets
for the purposes of kickstarting the economy. Is the government
was spending a ton of money, and people got COVID money. Yes,
they went out and spent it on a lot of
different things, but the economy was not moving in the
(01:03:15):
sense that you didn't have as many transactional.
Speaker 2 (01:03:20):
As much transactional use of that money.
Speaker 1 (01:03:22):
You had a lot of people buying crap, a lot
of crap that came from China, made in China on
Amazon dot com, but.
Speaker 2 (01:03:27):
You didn't really have a lot of people going out.
Speaker 1 (01:03:30):
Back then they would get money in the form of
COVID relief money and they would get their their their
money to keep their keep them going. And then but
the federal government of the time spending over trillion dollars
and people were going, oh, I got money. I guess
I'll go on Amazon dot com and buy something made
in China, versus I'll take my family on a vacation.
Because you couldn't Where are you gonna go during COVID?
(01:03:50):
Where are you gonna go? We snuck out, we broke out.
We wound up leaving New Jersey to go to Deep
Creek Lake, Maryland. I was waiting for I don't know,
some sort of I g a swat team to jump
out of the woods and pulled me over on the
road and pound my car. It never happened, obviously, but really,
you where where.
Speaker 2 (01:04:10):
Were we gonna go? See?
Speaker 1 (01:04:12):
You weren't putting money back into the economy. Essentially, you
couldn't go to restaurants. You couldn't go to bars. A
lot of restaurants have that stupid twenty five percent capacity again,
and I'm talking about in a lot of.
Speaker 2 (01:04:21):
Places around the country.
Speaker 1 (01:04:23):
So like in Philly, I had a twenty five percent capacity.
Speaker 9 (01:04:28):
I went.
Speaker 1 (01:04:28):
I walked by a restaurant in Philadelphia a couple months ago.
I haven't been able a walk obviously because it's my
foot surgery, but.
Speaker 2 (01:04:35):
I could scoop past it now.
Speaker 1 (01:04:36):
But walk past this restaurant and it closed somewhere around
twenty twenty two, I think, and had a sign on
the door and it said twenty five percent capacity. Masks
must be warned at all times, you must wait in line.
Speaker 2 (01:04:48):
You'll you'll be called in. And I said, my god,
it's like dystopian.
Speaker 1 (01:04:51):
You know, you wonder why so many of those places
went into business, went out of business, despite the fact
that they had COVID relief funds. So you're getting money,
what do you do with it? Well, people spend it.
A lot of people spent it. Some people saved it,
but a lot of people spend it. And the argument was,
you're putting too much money to the economy, that's leading
to inflation, all this inflationary spending.
Speaker 2 (01:05:11):
I don't think it's the same thing.
Speaker 1 (01:05:13):
If you say we're gonna give every American citizen five
thousand dollars of their own money back or twenty five
hundred dollars in their own money back, we're gonna cut
so much waste for our inn abuse that we're gonna
put money back in people's pockets because a lot of
people are gonna take that money, take the family on vacation,
go out to dinner, go out to the movies, whatever.
And now you're recirculating that money throughout the entire economy.
Speaker 2 (01:05:34):
And that's a good thing.
Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
Now you're the waitress, the waiter, the server, whoever you're
talking with, no tax on tips, Well they're gonna get
they're getting your tips because you're going out to dinner
and maybe you can't write now, A lot of families
can't afford to do that, So that hurts mom and
pop businesses, that hurts small business restaurants, It hurts a
lot of different things. Maybe you're saying, well, I don't
I really love going on to vacation. Can't afford vacation
(01:05:57):
right now, can't do it, Gotta wait, gotta be twenty
one hundred dollars back.
Speaker 2 (01:06:01):
Go all right, let's go vacation.
Speaker 1 (01:06:04):
I mean, hell, I'm not a big fan of restricting
what people can do with that money, but it would
be great if you could just encourage people to maybe
use that money domestically, like, hey, take the family for
a week in the Poconos, down the Jersey Shore for
a week. Although twenty five hundred bucks is not going
to get you very far at the Jersey Shore these
days for a week, but you can try. You do it,
and now you're putting that money back in and then
(01:06:26):
you don't have inflation, because it's not just simply a
matter of people just buying a bunch of crap. It's
a matter of people putting money in the economy, and
then other people are going to take that money, get
money and use that money. Some people then will invest
that money, some people will spend that money, some people
will save that money, but some people will hire people
with that money.
Speaker 2 (01:06:44):
And that's a good thing.
Speaker 1 (01:06:46):
That's how you get an economy roaring again, in my opinion,
as long as you back it with cutting government. You see,
that was the mistake of the Biden era, was I mean,
they made a lot of mistakes back then, or whoever
was pulling the strings of the Biden puppet machine made
a lot of mistakes. Is that they're spending a trillion dollars.
They're putting all this money out there, and you can't,
(01:07:09):
of course the inflation source. But the other thing is,
let's not forget what the Federal Reserve is doing back then.
Speaker 2 (01:07:13):
Is it was it was.
Speaker 1 (01:07:14):
Printing money, this quantitative easing nonsense, money that we didn't have,
and was just giving that money to people. But it
wasn't money we actually have. This would be concrete money
because it would actually come from something, meaning that it
would come from cuts that the government is making, identifying
as waste for an abuse and then giving that back
to the taxpayers who were paying for the waste for
an abuse. It's my money, so give me back my money.
(01:07:38):
Let me see what I can do with it. I
bet you I can do better. I bet you I
can make that money go further than you can. How
much you want to bet, I bet you I can
make that money go further than that. I don't mean you listening,
I mean I mean the government can absolutely.
Speaker 2 (01:07:53):
I was reading a story.
Speaker 1 (01:07:54):
About they were saying how a lot of people in
this country right now are looking at the price of
growth and they're trying to make cuts, and they're trying
to think about what they want to do and how
they're going to get buy And they're happy that the
price of eggs have gone down, but they know the
price of eggs are going to probably go back up,
and they're trying to make this. The other thing is
that for a lot of people, it's just simply a
matter of scaling back on what they're buying, which has
(01:08:15):
a huge economic impact.
Speaker 2 (01:08:16):
Here's what I mean.
Speaker 1 (01:08:17):
Go to the grocery store and you're buying ground beef,
but you're not buying steaks. Well, somewhere out there there's
ranchers who are making steaks who are losing money. Butcher
shops are losing money as you start cutting back on
the quality of products, or you decide that you're going
to do or maybe you're not doing takeout, or maybe
all those things have downward effects. So I don't know
(01:08:40):
how anybody could really be against giving people their money back.
I don't mean printing money that has no value. I
mean giving people their money back instead of allowing it
to be wasted by a massive federal bureaucracy that does
nothing other than just completely wash it go away, or
(01:09:01):
print transgender comic books in Peru, or create transgender lab
mice in the lab ultimate fighting transgender lab mice. That
was like a great cover band name, doesn't it Now?
Speaker 2 (01:09:14):
I'm all for that.
Speaker 1 (01:09:15):
Give people their money back. It's what needs to happen here.
And if we can do that, we won't achieve something
really special. Because remember behind all of this, behind the
whole idea of the economy getting moving, and why I
think it's going to be different this time is at
the same time the Bide administration was spending a trillion
dollars of money, didn't have quantitative eason going on. People
couldn't go anywhere really spend that money other than buying
(01:09:36):
material objects, a lot of which you're made overseas. But
The other fact is that at the very same time,
the Bide administration was also doing everything it possibly could
to end oil and natural gas in this country. So
energy prices were about to soar. They weren't because people
weren't driving anywhere. Back to the point about COVID where
you couldn't go anywhere. But then when people started to
(01:09:58):
drive again, we really all of a sudden, we didn't
have enough oil and natural gas to keep up. The
Biden administration was saying, oh wait, record record supply not
the case, not the case at all. That's why it
will be very different this time.
Speaker 2 (01:10:10):
All right, more to come.
Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
As President Trump meets with a NATO Secretary General, Putin
agrees in principle, do a cease fire.
Speaker 2 (01:10:16):
It's the Dana Show.
Speaker 5 (01:10:17):
Don't go away, it's our friends over at Bernagun the
non firearm firearm. It's always good to diversify. I'm always
going to carry. I have zero problem with it. I
have zero problem and pumping a threat full of lead.
If you're threatening me the life, my life, or the
lives of my loved ones, I have a lethal response
for that. That said, there are always instances where you're
denied from Carrie you know, whether it's you're in DC.
(01:10:39):
I have friends that live and work in DC. They
go through all the hoops they get their license to carry.
They have to ask the government for permission to exercise
their god given Second Amendment right that's merely affirm by
the Constitution. So they got to diversify their weaponry and
there's no problem in doing that.
Speaker 7 (01:10:54):
There's no issue.
Speaker 5 (01:10:55):
I mean, you carry blades, right, I mean you've got
pistols and rifles. What's the problem with having something like
a burn A gun. Their most popular model and the
one that I would recommend to you is the Burna SD.
It's their best selling one, and the burn A gun
shoots chemical irrit and projectiles that can disable threats from
up to fifty feet away. So it gives you, It
gives you a chance if you're under threat, and it's
(01:11:16):
legal in all fifty states. No background checks, no permits,
no recoil, can be shipped directly to your door, doesn't
care about gun free zone sign so you got a
lot of legal flexibility there. Always reevaluate, always evaluate and
re evaluate again and again what you have for self defense.

Speaker 1 (01:11:56):
Well, you gotta love a good Florida man story, don't you,
especially when you have an unwelcome guest, Because I've always
found Florida people to be incredibly hospitable every time we
go to visit that was the street. Supposed to be
down there this week for spring training in clear Water
to see my beloved Phills. But in this case, now
this guy is in his house, looks around, SE's an
(01:12:17):
alligator staring back at him. Left his patio door open
and gets some breeze, and a seven foot long alligator
smashed a hole in the screen, headed right for the kitchen.
Can you blame them? So I would go if I
were an alligator. Anyway, He called nine one one Florida
Fish and Wildlife Trapper came, removed the gator, and then
he had to clean up all the gator slime from
(01:12:38):
his house, which I'm guessing is kind of like the
slime that Slimer left in Ghostbusters.
Speaker 2 (01:12:43):
I don't really know.
Speaker 1 (01:12:44):
This is also a thing in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina,
because my parents live down there. And you gotta watch
the gators coming in through the screen door. I mean,
they smell delicious food, and they want food, and they're gaters.
Speaker 2 (01:12:54):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (01:12:55):
And who's going to stop them? I mean, if I'm
a gator, that's exactly what I'm doing. But nevertheless, so also,
if you watch Dexter, if you watch the prequel to Dexter,
which is Dexter Original Sin. So I really did love
that show, Dexter Original Sin. He buries bodies in the
Everglades and the gators eat them until they don't.
Speaker 2 (01:13:13):
Spoiler alert, I'm not going to give it to you.
Speaker 1 (01:13:15):
But and this Florida man was charged for an interactive
teller machine fraud in Jackson County, Michigan. What A Florida
man faces charges in Michigan for allegedly committing fraud using
an interactive teller machine. It's the first reported fraud case
came into March seventh, an Interactive Teller Machine is an
ATM with a video chat. It allows customers to conduct
(01:13:37):
bank transactions without going inside. Well police found that more
fraud had been conducted in March eighth, with a large
amount of cash being taken from the machine a thirty
two year old guy. They rested him before he could flee,
and apparently he was using a phone and was using
this through the interactive chat and then he threatened the
person and said you better give you the money, and
(01:14:00):
then they got the guy because it was all on
wait for it, video shocking. I know we're all shocked
by this coming up. Putin says he agrees in principle
with peace. Our number three of a data show straight Ahead.
Speaker 5 (01:14:14):
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,
(01:14:37):
and that company is gold Co. They're a huge supporter
of this 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.

Speaker 14 (01:15:06):
Mister President, the Democratic leader. Funding the government should be
a bipartisan effort, but Republicans chose a partisan path, drafting
their Continuing Resolution without any input, any input from Congressional Democrats.
Because of that, Republicans do not have the votes in
(01:15:27):
the Senate to invoke cloture on the House CR. Our
caucus is unified on a clean April eleventh CR that
will keep the government open and give Congress time to
negotiate bi partisan legislation that can pass.
Speaker 1 (01:15:46):
That's funny, Oh, Chuck Schuber, you're so cute. The same
guy that would never even allow a vote on CRS.
He would just push them through. Welcome back to the
Dana Show. It's our number three here with me rich
z the only interview the shows flying by today. Great
to be back for my buddy Dana Lash and great
to be with you today as well. You can tweet
me at rich Zioli. President Trump today said that what's
(01:16:12):
with Biden and the autopen? What's with Biden and the autopen?
This is a real problem too, this whole autopen scandal.
I'm going into that in just a second with you
as well. But one of the things I wanted to
mention too as we're watching all this is the President
and the head of NATO, speaking of the Oval Office
a few minutes ago, just talked about why Greenland is
of vital interest not only to the United States but
(01:16:33):
also to NATO allies because China keeps using the northern
roots where Greenland is and they're very concerned about that.
So they said, you're going to buy Greenland or what.
And it's certainly something that's on the table, no doubt
about it.
Speaker 2 (01:16:49):
No doubt.
Speaker 1 (01:16:51):
This autopen issue though with Biden is in my opinion,
the biggest political scandal of my lifetime.
Speaker 2 (01:16:56):
It really is.
Speaker 1 (01:16:58):
There's this clip when when Mike Johnson, the Speaker of
the House, to say and he confronts Biden about the
liquid natural gas export ban, and Biden's like, huh, what
are you talking about? Well, I didn't put any liquidnatural
gas export ban. Now the problem is he may have
and just forgot, because wouldn't you then, if you were
President Biden at that moment, go back and say, who
(01:17:19):
the hell put in a liquid band in a liquid
natural gas export?
Speaker 2 (01:17:21):
Wasn't me? Who did it?
Speaker 1 (01:17:22):
Find out who did it, and then fire that person
and then But it's also possible Biden forgot five minutes
later that he just said he never put in a
band in that liquid natural gas exports. See Biden's cognitive decline,
his mush of a brain, which the judge that Special
Council even said, you know, there's no judge out there
that would ever convict this guy because he's just a
(01:17:43):
he's a.
Speaker 2 (01:17:44):
Crazy old man, using the Uncle June.
Speaker 1 (01:17:46):
Defense from the Sopranos. I'm just a senile old man.
I don't remember anything. Well, Trump today at the Oval
Office says, you know this case, it's signing thousands and
thousands of documents with the autopan what's up with that?
Speaker 2 (01:17:58):
What's that about?
Speaker 1 (01:18:00):
The auto pen in the White House is supposed to
be there for signing of you know, you send a
letter to the President, my dear mister President would love
you to come to my daughter's graduation, and of course
he's not going to go, so they write a letter back.
I'm so touched, I'm honored. Unfortunately, my schedule doesn't allow it.
And you know, that's what the autopen's for. It's not
for signing things like a ban on liquid natural gas
(01:18:20):
or pardoning Anthony Fauci and his little ban of Mary
little Gain a function minions. The auto pen signature appears
on most official documents though, which is a huge, huge problem.
And in talking to Congressman Scott Perry about this, and
he said the same thing is Pennsylvania Representative Perry, we
(01:18:42):
got to have an investigation to this. Congress needs to
investigate this. I need to haul people before Congress and
ask them the questions of who was responsible for getting
these automatic signatures on these documents?
Speaker 2 (01:18:55):
Did the President know about it?
Speaker 1 (01:18:57):
So in the case of the liquidnatural Gas Export Band,
did Biden forget that he did it? Did he forget
after he was told that he did it, in which
case that's why they never undid it, because the entire
time during that election, I never could believe this. You're
trying to win Pennsylvania, it's the must win state and
you still have a ban on liquid natural gas exports
from the oil rich, natural gas rich state of Pennsylvania.
(01:19:19):
And and I said a million times dur in the campaign,
I said, I don't understand this, This makes no sense.
Why don't you immediately push that away? So let's assume
Biden when he said that the Speaker Mike john said.
Speaker 2 (01:19:30):
I didn't do it. It wasn't me. I don't know who
did it.
Speaker 1 (01:19:32):
Then wouldn't you rush back to the White House immediately
say or not even you have to rush back, you
just turn to somebody and go find out who the
hell did that. I want him in my office as
soon as I get back. So, either Biden was lying
to Mike Johnson, Biden forgot that he did put in
the bandon the liquid natural gas, or Biden forgot that
he told Mike Johnson he didn't know about it and
(01:19:53):
then meant to do something about it, but then just
forgot to do anything about it. Either way, it just
shows you the extent of the guy's cognitive decline. A
majority of official documents signed by President Joe Biden allegedly
used the same autopen signature, reinvigorating concerns over the former
president's mental acuity. And if he actually ordered the signature
of relevant legal documents, whoever controlled the autopen control the presidency,
(01:20:16):
said the oversight project by the Conservative Heritage Foundation they conserve,
they control the presidency. We gathered every document we could
find with Biden's signature over the course of the presidency.
All used the same autopen signature, except for the announcement
that the former president was dropping out of the race
last year. And it's it's it's the cover up and
(01:20:37):
the scandal of Biden's decline. That's what we're talking about here,
the cover up and scandal of Biden's decline. And people
probably kept it covered up because they were they were
in charge, They were in power over this, and they
loved it. They loved being they they loved being in charge,
and they loved being in power over the whole situation.
Speaker 2 (01:20:58):
So why would they change anything on this?
Speaker 1 (01:21:01):
Somebody should ask Kavin Newsom about that next time they
go on his podcast. Oh, you know, speaking of California,
I wanted to mention this story here about California. So
Mel Gibson, the actor who is now the head of
the President's Commission on Hollywood. It's like Mel Gibson and
Sylvester Stallone. Mel Gibson is barred from owning a firearm,
(01:21:24):
and this woman at the Department of Justice, her name
was Elizabeth Oyer Foreimer, public defender, was appointed as the
Justice Department's partner attorney in April of twenty twenty two
under Obama. Says she was fired last Friday because she
refused to sign off on a recommendation to restore mel
Gibson's gun rights. This is from Reason dot com. The
movie star and director who supported Donald Trump in the
(01:21:45):
twenty twenty four presidential election, was designated as one of
the administration's three ambassadors to Hollywood alone with John Voight
and Sylvester Stallone. Now, mel Gibson lost the right to
own firearms because of a misdemeanor domestic violence conviction. Now
that the part of an attorney who resigned presented the
(01:22:07):
episode as a conflict between public safety and political favoritism.
New York Times framed the story of the exact same way.
But the incident also illustrates how difficult it is for
people who've lost their Second Amendment rights as a result
of criminal convictions, a category that includes theoretically the President himself,
to regain those rights even when there are no grounds
(01:22:28):
to think they pose a threat to public safety.
Speaker 2 (01:22:31):
So this was back in March of twenty eleven.
Speaker 1 (01:22:33):
You know, Gibson planted no contest to a misdemeanor battery
charge involving his girlfriend, got thirty six months of probation,
and the deal allowed him to avoid jail time, but
his plea triggered an ancillary penalty under eighteen Usc. Nine
two to two G nine, which makes it a felony
for anyone who has been convicted in any court of
a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence to receive or possess
(01:22:54):
a firearm.
Speaker 2 (01:22:57):
A life time ban.
Speaker 1 (01:23:00):
Now, those who advocate for this turn around and go, well,
that's because all these domestic abusers are going to go
out and get a firearm and kill their exes the
minute that they have the chance to do so. Well,
that's stupid. There's no evidence to point to that. There's
no evidence to say Milk Gibson or any of the
other people are dangerous. But if that's the case, there's
lots of ways to kill somebody. You don't just need
a gun. I mean, it's not like without guns, nobody
(01:23:25):
ever kills anybody. People have lots of methods to kill
somebody if they really want to kill somebody. Not getting
not being able to legally purchase a firearm certainly not
going to stop them, because they could also.
Speaker 2 (01:23:35):
Wait for it illegally buy a firearm in this country.
Speaker 1 (01:23:40):
As Supreme Court Justice Amy Cony Barrett noted in an
opinion she wrote, as an appeals court judge, the constitutionality
of the latter prohibition is doubtful. Barrett dissented from a
twenty nineteen decision in which the US Circuit Court of
Appeals for the Seventh Circuit upheld the application of that
section to manufacture to a manufacturer of therapeutic shoes and
footwear inser who had pleaded guilty to mail.
Speaker 2 (01:24:01):
Fraud mail fraud.
Speaker 1 (01:24:04):
You can never have a gun again because you pled
guilty to mail fraud. History demonstrates that legislatures have the
power to prohibit dangerous people from possessing guns, she wrote,
but that power extends only to people who are dangerous. Now,
I don't know what it means to be a dangerous person.
(01:24:25):
I mean, theoretically, we're all dangerous, right, Theoretically anybody can
be dangerous, So you're probably talking about somebody who's imminently dangerous,
somebody you have.
Speaker 2 (01:24:37):
To really worry about in the moment.
Speaker 1 (01:24:38):
I mean, I could be dangerous five minutes from now,
who the hell knows, depends on my mood. But I'm
obviously not going to be a violent person. So then again,
define dangerous. What do you mean by that? You know,
what do you mean by dangerous? The Supreme Court is
twenty twenty two decision in the New York State Rifle
and Pistol Association v. Bruin added hafter that argument by
clarifying that gun control laws must be consistent with this
(01:24:59):
name historical tradition of firearm regulation when they impinge on
conduct covered by the plaintext at the Second Amendment. Twenty
twenty three, the US Cirquarter of Appeals for the Third
Circuit rule that section nine two two G this is
the one that keeps Smell Gibson from having a gun,
and millions like him failed that test, as applied to
Brian Range, a Pennsylvania man who pleaded guilty to food
(01:25:21):
stamp fraud. Look, I'm no fan of a food stamp fraud,
but like, come on, you're not gonna let the guy
actually ever have his Second Amendment rights back because of
foodstamp fraud. Stop based on Simbler reasoning, the US Thirnquarter
of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit last year overturned that
(01:25:42):
section nine to nine to two g conviction of Stephen Dwartde,
a California man who had lost his gun rights because
of a non violent criminal record without such judicial intervention,
Though prohibited persons like these have a little recourse. They
theoretically can ask the Attorney General to restore their Second
Amendment rights. The Attorney General has that discretion to do so,
(01:26:02):
but it's a whole big thing. It's a whole big
to do, and good luck with that. And then that
responsibility has also been delegated to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms and Explosives, which Congress has barred from considering such applications.
Speaker 2 (01:26:15):
Alcohol tobacco owned firearms. I love that.
Speaker 1 (01:26:18):
One of my favorite t shirts is ATF Alcohol, Tobacco
and firearms should be a convenience store, not a government agency.
Although federal law provides a means for the relief of
firearms disabilities, ATF's annual appropriation since October of nineteen ninety
two has prohibited the expending of any funds to investigate
(01:26:40):
or act upon applications for relief from federal firearms disabilities
submitted by individuals. As long as this provision is included
in current ATF appropriations, ATF cannot act upon applications for
relief from federal firearms disabilities submitted by individuals. That's a
whole lot of mumbo jumbo. Translation is, you're screwed if
(01:27:06):
the ATF cannot act on such applications. Can people with
disqualifying criminal records seek relief in federal court? No, the
US Supreme Court unanimously ruled in the two thousand and
two case United States v.
Speaker 5 (01:27:16):
Bean.
Speaker 1 (01:27:18):
So what do you do? You got nothing? You got nothing.
You're just screwed because you made a mistake. You did
something wrong. For the rest of your life. So in
this case, this woman, this pardon attorney, going back to
this said she was working. She was assigned to a
working group charged with identifying people who deserve to have
their Second Amendment rights restored despite criminal records that made
(01:27:38):
it illegal for them to own guns. It was an
unusual assignment for the office of the Parton Attorney, which
typically handles requests for clemency and recommends candidates for pardons
or commutations, and she didn't want to do it because
she didn't believe that anybody should get their gun rights back. Well,
why not, because lefties believe that if there's any possibility
they have of keeping you from ever being able to
(01:27:59):
own a gun, they should immediately seize it and take
it and be done with it, because now you're you're
one more person that they can keep unarmed in this
country legally, of course, So that doesn't surprise me in
the least. But Mel Gibson and many others like him
are not dangerous people. The article says, well, the loss.
Speaker 2 (01:28:20):
Of that right might not be matter, might not matter.
Speaker 1 (01:28:24):
Much to someone with armed, taxpayer funded protection like these
judges and these politicians and everybody else. The same can't
be set of ordinary people who are legally barred from
possessing firearms, even though they have never done anything to
suggest they are inclined to violence, And that is the
problem with this situation. More to come on the Data show.
(01:28:46):
As we keep going here, the President says, we don't
need anything Canada has.
Speaker 2 (01:28:51):
Don't go away and.
Speaker 8 (01:28:53):
Now all of the news you would probably miss. It's
time for Dana's Quick five.
Speaker 1 (01:28:58):
I don't even know how to explain how freaking creepy
this is. But you ever heard have you heard of
the box Demon?
Speaker 2 (01:29:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:29:04):
So this is a person who would go up to
ring camera doorbells calling themselves the box Demon, And it
was basically it's a homemade paper plate mask and carrying
an empty box. The person would would would would leave
the package on the porch and walk away. They finally
got this person, this box demon police in North York, PA.
(01:29:26):
They've spoken to the person as well as a homeowner,
adding it there are no public safety concerns, so it's
very possible it might be just some weird box demon
freaky thing between the two. I'm not quite sure. The
new super blood Moon is coming out this weekend. Yeah,
marked blood moon lunar eclipse set for Friday night. But
(01:29:47):
bananas that get really really old, but not brown. They
have a new way using a scientific breakthrough that can
keep bananas healthy again, don't mess with nature.
Speaker 15 (01:29:56):
Man.
Speaker 1 (01:29:57):
I saw a Jurassic Park. I know how this works out.
It doesn't work out well for us. Spinal tap two
gets a release date, and whiskey vitals believe to be
from prohibition era were found on a New Jersey beach.
I guess Nookie Thompson was out there after all, enjoying
some time. And finally, when it comes to all things,
we're looking at right now, you know what I'm thinking.
We're thinking, can we get our hands on some of
(01:30:18):
that whiskey before Canada.
Speaker 2 (01:30:20):
Shuts it all down? It's The Dana Show. Don't go away.

Speaker 2 (01:30:39):
And they should not, and they're also demeaning women. But
who would want these things?
Speaker 16 (01:30:43):
And everything's transgender, everybody transgender.
Speaker 2 (01:30:45):
That's all you hear about.
Speaker 4 (01:30:47):
Now, that's why we won the election in record numbers.
Speaker 1 (01:30:50):
But that's right, that's everybody's transgender. Welcome back to the show.
Glad you're here.
Speaker 2 (01:30:57):
The Dana Show.
Speaker 1 (01:30:57):
It's rich Zeolian for Data Today again to be with you,
back tomorrow for Friday end out the week. Newsweek have
this article, which I guess is supposed to be an
insult to the military and their spending.
Speaker 2 (01:31:10):
Here's the headline. Let me read this to you.
Speaker 1 (01:31:12):
US military spends eight times more on viagra than gender
affirming care.
Speaker 2 (01:31:17):
Let me read that.
Speaker 1 (01:31:20):
US military spends eight times more on viagra than gender
affirming care. Okay, Now, first of all, if I'm serving
my country and I need a little help in that department,
which I don't serve my country, see what I did there.
But if I did that, I would say the government
(01:31:42):
should give me my you know, my little blue pill
or the white generic version of this.
Speaker 2 (01:31:49):
It's not even a question for.
Speaker 1 (01:31:50):
Me in my in my opinion, the judge over seeing
the case against the Defense departments firing of transgender service
members revealed that the military spends eight times more on
a rectile dysfunction medication bean on gender affirm and care.
First of all, gender affirming care is one of those
euphemisms the left to use for chopping off body parts
(01:32:10):
and giving hormone blockers to kids, puberty blockers to kids,
which don't, of course, actually block puberty, just delays. It
messes with the kids, and they're incredibly harmful, which is
why they're banned in European countries now.
Speaker 2 (01:32:22):
Thank god.
Speaker 1 (01:32:22):
As is also these gender firming practices for children. But
while discussing military spending with the Department of Defense, attorney
for the ongoing Talbot v. Trump case, Judge Anna Reis,
said the DoD spends approximately five point two million dollars
annually a medical care for service members with gender dysphoria. Comparatively,
the DoD spends forty two million dollars a year on
(01:32:43):
medication for service members with the rectile dysfunction. Hey, listen,
A big part of the reason why men, I'm told,
and I don't know this for a fact, sometimes need
help in that department is because of stress. War is stressful,
Serving your country is stressful. I get it. I understand
(01:33:06):
that point. Again, I don't personally know if that's true,
but I've read.
Speaker 2 (01:33:12):
That stress is a big indicator of this.
Speaker 1 (01:33:14):
But really, what it comes down to you is this
is why the Secretary of Defense doesn't want and the
President doesn't want transgender service members serving in our military.
And I don't think they should be in our military. Well,
this is not a social club. Military is not a
social club. You want to live your life as a
transgender person, knock yourself out. You shouldn't be in the military, though,
(01:33:37):
just like I would say that if you are physically unfit,
you shouldn't be in the military. If you are a
weak and fragile, you should not be. I could not
be in the military. I'm weak and fragile. I'm constantly
breaking things. But if you have a little problem in
the area of you know, wooho, like you know, that
would be the stress of probably being involved in war
(01:34:00):
and conflict and everything else.
Speaker 2 (01:34:02):
I get it. I understand that.
Speaker 1 (01:34:05):
But there's also other issues too that lead to that
age and you know, cholesterol levels and sleep apnea. There's
all kinds of things that should do with that. One
one has nothing to do with the other. By the way,
one it's like saying, well, you spend forty two trillion
dollars a year on blood pressure medication. Is what does
(01:34:26):
that have to do with transgender gender affirm and care.
Either you think the military should be in the business
of having transgender soldiers or not, you can't equate that
with what they spend on viagra or any of the
other rectile of dysfunction drugs, not that I know what
they are, but I've heard there's other names out there too.
But the viagra spending was a stupid point by the
(01:34:48):
judge to make. At one point, attorneys had to admit
to the judge they never read articles which were included
as evidence. The judge said that they had cherry picked
and egregiously misquoted studies put forward by the Pentagon on
transgender peaceeople decreasing the lethality of the military.
Speaker 2 (01:35:05):
Just for the record, I would.
Speaker 1 (01:35:07):
Be more worried about soldiers who need help in that
department of rising to the occasion not getting the help
they need rising to the occasion in terms of US
having a strong fighting force, because those soldiers would then
be even more stressed out and even more distracted, if
(01:35:27):
you know what I mean. But one has nothing to
do with the other.
Speaker 2 (01:35:32):
This is what I mean.
Speaker 1 (01:35:33):
This is another case of a dumb federal judge, like
the federal judge who earlier today blocked the Trump administration
from firing all these people in the federal government. I mean,
this is not your job here. What does this have
to do with anything. In response to this, the Pentagon
saying transgender people decrease the lethality of the military.
Speaker 2 (01:35:53):
They do.
Speaker 1 (01:35:53):
People with the rectile of this function, however, don't you
could still be pretty lethal. But it's also about other
things to uncohesion, and there's just there's a lot of
other factors to this. But again it one does not
have anything to do with the other. If if, for example,
somebody has trouble sleeping and the and and they get
(01:36:17):
a sleep aid, a sleeping aid or whatever, or they're
they're given I don't know, value or.
Speaker 2 (01:36:23):
Whatever it is. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:36:25):
You go, wait, you're spending all those money on sleeping aids,
but you're not spending money on transgender or firming care. Okay,
And yeah, and you spend all this money giving giving
the military members golf lessons, but you won't spend this
money on transgender care.
Speaker 2 (01:36:40):
We're not.
Speaker 1 (01:36:41):
It's not The argument is not about whether or not
the government should be spending the money. The governments the
argument of what it should be spending the money on. Hey,
the government's not turning around going, oh, you know, we
really can't afford this transgender care. They're saying that they
don't want transgender soldiers in the military. The Secretary of
Defense Pete has it said transgender people lack warrior ethos,
(01:37:02):
are liars, lack integrity or not humble, are selfish, and
can't meet physical mental fitness requirements. Well that's his opinion.
You can disagree with that, but he's the Secretary of Defense.
I mean, you know, it's like saying, well, I think
I mean, if he had easily said that instead of
transgender if he had said weak people physically weak people
(01:37:24):
lack warrior ethos, are liars, lack integrity, are not humble,
are selfish, and can't meet physical mental requirements, be like,
all right, well that's kind of mean, but it's your sad.
That's like your opinion, dude, to quote the dude from
The Big Lebowski. But it's it's not the point. The
point is that the commander in chief doesn't want transgender
(01:37:48):
people serving in the military.
Speaker 2 (01:37:49):
And I'm sorry, but.
Speaker 1 (01:37:53):
That's the right the commander in chief has, and it's
something he also said on the campaign triol and he
got elected. Pegsad's point about the integrity thing was that
you're going out there and you're lying, you're saying a
man's assertion that he is a woman and his requirement
that others honor this falsehood is not consistent with the
humility and selflessness required of a service member. Military service
(01:38:18):
members must be reserved or service must be reserved for
those mentally and physically fit for duty. So the judge
turns around and goes, so you're saying that people with
gender dysph you can't be honest, humble, or have integrity.
You think that's demeaning to people with gender dys for you,
And the attorney said, I can't answer that question. Well,
let's also break down what genderness for you is, which
(01:38:38):
is a mental condition where you think you're in the
wrong body you think, I mean, at one time that
was considered to be.
Speaker 2 (01:38:44):
A psychological illness.
Speaker 1 (01:38:45):
The question that I think the better question would be
what do you do with people who are who have
mental illness in the military, because the military will not
accept people if they have certain kinds of mental illness
for the exact same reason being that they could be
threat to themselves or to the people they're serving with.
I mean, like, I'm not trying to be mean here,
(01:39:09):
but if you have people with severe mental illness dispatched overseas.
That's not in their best interest anymore than it's in
the best interest of the people that are serving with
that person. So I just I think, again, this is
one of those areas where you've got to turn around
and you got to say, if the American people knew
(01:39:29):
what the president felt on the issue, and they did,
and the President of the United States, in his capacity
as president, turned around and said, this is what we're
going to do, then the President of the United States
gets to make that determination. And I don't think the
fact that we have a lot of soldiers who need
viagra is really the issue. But if I was thinking
(01:39:50):
about World War three with Putin and a potential nuclear
cond I might have a time, you know, rising to
the occasion raising the flag, if you know what I mean. Now,
on the note of Russia, by the way, Vladimir Putin
has come out and he said, and this is what
the President was echoing in the Oval Office earlier. Putin
says Russia is in favor of a ceasefire proposal, but
there is nuance. In his first public remarks on the
(01:40:13):
proposed thirty days ceasefire in Ukraine, President Vladimir Putin said,
Russia is for it, but he wants his own security guarantees.
Putin raid questions raised questions regarding a thirty day ceasefire
during a press briefing in Moscow on Thursday.
Speaker 2 (01:40:28):
This is what the President of Russia said. Quote.
Speaker 1 (01:40:30):
It seems to me it would be very good for
the Ukrainian side to reach a truce for at least
thirty days, and we are for it, but there's a nuance.
His concerns regard Russia's Kersk region, where Ukrainian forces push
into last year in a surprise offensive, but in recent
weeks have seen Russian forces retake significant ground. If we
stop the hostilities for thirty days, what does that mean.
(01:40:52):
Does it mean that everyone who is there will leave
without a fight, or the Ukrainian leadership will give them
in order to lay down their arms and just surrender.
How will it be, It's not clear, Putin said. Putin
said he also wants guarantees that during a thirty day ceasefire,
Ukraine will not regroup, and he wondered who would determine
if there were any violations of a ceasefire. These are
(01:41:14):
all issues that require careful investigation from both sides. Putin
suggested Russia should talk with Trump to discuss his concerns well, adding,
but the idea itself is to end this conflict with
peaceful means.
Speaker 2 (01:41:25):
We support it, he said.
Speaker 1 (01:41:28):
At the top of his remarks, the President thanked Trump
for his attention to Ukraine's settlement by saying, we believe
that this ceasefire should lead to a long term piece
and eliminate the initial cause of this crisis. And you
have the Special envoy led by Steve Whitkoff, who landed
in Moscow today for discussions on the proposed thirty day
(01:41:50):
ceasefire in Ukraine, continuing efforts to press Russia to agree
to a ceasefire and stop its brutal war against Ukraine.
That's what Caroline Levitt had said.
Speaker 2 (01:42:00):
So that's good.
Speaker 1 (01:42:01):
Peace is good. We should all want peace. So things
are hopefully going okay, and that's a good thing. Oh
and speaking of Caroline Levitt, by the way, you know,
Caroline Levitt was asked a question, Hey, do you think
you should just level with everybody and just tell everybody
the things are going to stink for a while. And
I think things are going to be tough for a while.
A big part of this is psychological. You know, A
(01:42:21):
big part of this is making everybody feel like the
economy is going to be good and believing. It's called
consumer confidence. It's a good thing. It's a very very
good thing. And that's why when Carolin Levitt was answer
was asked that question, I thought it was a really
dumb question.
Speaker 2 (01:42:35):
But here's what the Fox reporter asked her. This is
cut sixteen.
Speaker 17 (01:42:39):
Is it time for the president to do an Oval
office address? Maybe and try to explain to people that
it might be bad for a little while, but it
is in fact worth it. I think the President has
been incredibly clear Jackie on where he stands and what
he envisions for the future of America. He wants to
restore this great country as the manufacturing superpower of the world.
(01:43:00):
And we have the ability to do it because we
have the best market, and we have the best workers,
and we have plenty of resources right here at home.
What we need are these companies and these CEOs to
recognize that, to trust in President Trump and to move
their business here.
Speaker 7 (01:43:15):
And many of them already own.
Speaker 1 (01:43:18):
Yeah, and it's also about consumer confidence. You want people
to believe in the American economy so that they spend
money and they don't sit back and hoard it, because
that has real problems downstream in the economy. I mean,
I'm not an economist, but everybody knows that tomorrow's Pie Day.
By the way, March fourteenth, three fourteen, Pie Day. Plan
(01:43:41):
to take the family out for pizza tomorrow night. I
typically make pizza myself. I love making pizza myself. It's
one of my great joys in life. But we'll thinking
about it. But you know, if people stop ordering pizza
or going out for pizza on Pie Day or whatever
it is, then yeah, you know what the local pizzeria suffers.
Speaker 2 (01:43:59):
That's a problem here.
Speaker 1 (01:44:01):
They're already dealing with higher prices on everything a day
have to buy. So you don't want to sit there
and go, oh, doom and gloom. You know who tried that.
Jimmy Carter tried that with a whole malaised speech. How'd
that work out for the United States of America? How
to work out for him politically?
Speaker 2 (01:44:14):
Not too good? And by the way, why should he.
Speaker 1 (01:44:16):
Here's CNBC's Rick Santelli about wholesale inflation cut fifteen.
Speaker 16 (01:44:21):
Headline expecting up three tenths up zero goose egg unched. Boy,
that is progress. We haven't had a number that low. Well,
we equaled it in July of last year when we
had another zero to find a lower number, You're back
to October October of twenty three at minus four tenths.

Speaker 17 (01:45:00):
I'm not sure that saying that Steve Bannon calls balls
and strikes is the right I think the.
Speaker 10 (01:45:05):
Risk of Elon Musk tweeting about me because apparently he
likes when I say the.
Speaker 7 (01:45:09):
Word balls on TV.
Speaker 10 (01:45:10):
I will say that balls and strikes when you're talking
about Steve Bannon, when.
Speaker 6 (01:45:16):
He calls balls and strikes, he calls strikes balls and
ball strikes.
Speaker 2 (01:45:20):
Wow, Dana Bash, you really enjoyed that, didn't you.
Speaker 8 (01:45:23):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (01:45:23):
Quick shout out to our buddy Sergio Sanchez from seven
to ten KRV.
Speaker 2 (01:45:28):
He's listening right now.
Speaker 1 (01:45:29):
Of course, one of Dane is main fill in hosts
along with myself, my man Surge with some buddy thanks
for listening, appreciate it. Loved your text. Maybe laugh.
Speaker 2 (01:45:39):
I don't know we can say those things on the
air anymore in this day and age. I don't know.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:45:42):
I don't know what the rules are. I don't know
Rush you got away with it. I don't know if
we can. I just don't know. I'm still going to
try it to my show. I just don't want to
potentially get Dane in trouble by doing it in Hers.
But I'm definitely gonna try to my show, which is
starting in just four minutes on WPHD in Philadelphia. But
before I I jump off and go to do that,
(01:46:02):
let me just mention that Dana Bash really loves saying balls.
I just she really does. She just she because she
doesn't have to mention that that's just awkward.
Speaker 2 (01:46:14):
You know what I mean? It's awkward, It really is.
Speaker 1 (01:46:16):
The whole thing is just awkward, But not as awkward
as Joy Behar, who is whining that we're apparently all snowflakes.
Speaker 2 (01:46:22):
Who lawyer up? Did you know this?
Speaker 4 (01:46:24):
Cut?
Speaker 2 (01:46:24):
Nineteen?
Speaker 15 (01:46:25):
Just disagree a little bit because I agree with you
that he should have counted The Pocahontas thing is just stupid.
And by the way, there's such of snowflakes on the right.
If you say anything about then they're going to the
lawyers in two seconds, you know.
Speaker 2 (01:46:39):
But he can call people any names they he wants.
Speaker 1 (01:46:42):
By the way, he called her Pocahontas because she's not
really Native American. Therefore it's not a racial slur, you idiot.
The whole point of calling her Pocahontas is that she's
not Native American. She was lying about it her entire
life and her entire career. That's why the Pocahontas thing
is funny, because she's not. It would be it would
be I would agree with you be a racial slur
(01:47:03):
if she was a Native American. But she's not not
even close to being a Native American. She's no, she's
no more Native American than that fake Indian they had
come out and do the Oscars for Merlin Brando that night.
It was also another fraud of who Gayzy is. My
people say, all right, listen, enjoy the rest of your day.
Feel free to join me and Philly coming up next
to you. Listen free on the Odyssey app. I'll be
back in for DAYA tomorrow we'll close out the week.
(01:47:26):
Thank you for listening.
