Tucker Carlson hosted George Stephanopoulos’ sister, Mother Agapia, on his show wherein she claimed Hamas are not jihadists, October 7th was justified, and Hamas fighters are just oppressed orphans.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Metropolitan Police Department, with the support of the new
federal agencies who have been surging on the streets of
the District of Columbia, are going to enforce the laws
that are already on the books here in Washington, d C.
For far too long, these laws have been completely ignored
and the homelessness problem has ravaged this city. So DC
Code twenty two thirteen oh seven in DC Municipal Regulation

(00:23):
twenty four to one hundred give the Metropolitan Police Department
to authority to take action when it comes to homeless
encampments encampments, so homeless individuals will be given the option
to leave their encampment to be taken to a homeless
shelter to be offered addiction or mental health services, and
if they refuse, they will be susceptible to fines or

(00:44):
to jail time. Again, these are pre existing laws that
are already on the books. They have not been enforced,
which is part of the reason for this nationalizing of
the federalizing of the National Guard to bring in this
assistance for law enforcement. While we are targeting criminals and
trying to remove criminals off of the streets, we also
want to make DC safe and beautiful and that removed

(01:06):
and involves removing mentally disturbed individuals and homeless encampments as well.
So we will be using these regulations and code that
already exists have to clean up our streets.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Yeah, so that makes sense. Why wouldn't you have that.
I don't understand why some people are getting very upset
over this, because it makes all the sense in the world.
Why are you allowing Why would anyone allow like criminal
vagrants to be on the street and harass people. I

(01:37):
know a lot of people that have to deal with
some I mean, not all homeless people are violent, but
there's a good number of them. I've seen them before.
I mean, when the last time I took one of
my kids to DC and I had to do a
I can't remember what program I was on. It was
on one of the Sunday morning shows. And the hotel
that I was staying in when we drove were coming

(01:58):
from the ear into DC and going into the hotel
when we drove down the street one block over, and
in fact, they kept trying to come in front of
the hotel, but hotel staff were chasing them away. I mean,
there were actual, like tons of homeless people and saw somebody.

(02:20):
I literally saw somebody shooting up right on the street,
and I'm like, oh, look on the other side. I'm
telling my son, like, look on the other side of
the street. And it's not like, you know, we all
live sheltered lives or anything, but to see that amount
of homeless people in broad daylight doing some of the
stuff that was happened, some of the things that they

(02:40):
were doing on the street was pretty I mean, that's
gonna shock anybody. It probably shocks other homeless people. So yeah,
something needs to be done about this. And in DC,
it's the nation's capital. I mean, my gosh, If the
nation's capital can't be the safest city in America, WTF.
Welcome to the program, Dana lash with you were at
the top of for I almost said second hour, first hour,

(03:02):
And this is one of this is like further more
developments in the President's plan to crack down on violence,
to crack down on some of the uh. I mean,
there are street squatters at this point, that's what it is.
And and the the left that's that's fighting over this.

(03:23):
I don't understand why they're they're so opposed to it,
because you cannot have people turn your streets into a
third world country and just start harassing and assaulting and
attacking people. You cannot have that. That's not something that
you know, you that can just be allowed. And so,
I mean, you know, heaven forbid, we have law and

(03:43):
order on our streets, especially in our nation's capital. I mean, kine,
don't you think that the nation's capital is a reflection
of the nation. Do you not think that the safety
of the streets in the nation's capital is a reflection
of the safety of the nation's streets? Absolutely is, So
why would you not have it cleaned up and safe

(04:08):
our kids? Should? You know what? I should be able
to walk around Washington, d C. With my sons, with
my kids, go and walk around Washington, d C. And
not have to worry about being accosted. You should have
to worry or not worry about that stuff. And it
has gotten demonstrably worse. I've been to DC so many times,

(04:31):
sometimes multiple times a week, did a lot of work there.
I don't go as often because you know, you pay
the cost to somewhat be the boss and you don't
have to go as many places as you're asked. But
the last I just know, the last few times that
I went. I stopped taking my kids because where I
needed to go, where I stayed, and where I needed
to go. There were some there's a lot of, I
mean that you could tell. And then one time I

(04:52):
was leaving a network and UH was accosted and a
security guard intervened, Like not no one, he did, like
the guide physically grabbed me, but he tried to get
in my face and he claimed that I owed him
money and he was vagrant and he claimed that I
owed him money, and he tried to get in my face,
and a security guard from the network intervened and I
was able to leave. I mean, it started getting bad,

(05:15):
and that was just I can't even imagine how I
have friends that I have friends that work in DC
and live in d C. I mean, Steve's in DC,
But I have friends that live and work like right downtown,
like focky Bottom. All this, and one of my friends
was attacked when she was jogging. She had a homeless
guy come up to her, and she was worried about
it because there had been a story earlier people were

(05:36):
worried about getting in. This is like there was like
a spate of people or spate of headlines about people
getting injected with stuff and accosted in the streets. And
my thankfully, my friend was a runner. She was able
to run away, but she didn't tell the police and
fill the police report and all of that. She had
to change how she she had change. She could even
can't even run around the mall. I mean, it's crazy.
I mean, think about the National Mall where the Smithsonians,

(05:57):
the Smithsonians museums are. That's insane. That is not something
that people should be concerned about in our nation's capital.
I can't even imagine. I can't even imagine. When I
got to tell you the last time I was in Rome,
I didn't see stuff like that in Rome. Now, granted,
I know it's a little bit of a different backstory there,

(06:18):
you know. I mean, we, you know, here in the
United States, we get a little weird when we see
you know, people with like, you know, full auto out
in the street. I get it. But they don't allow
that stuff to happen. I mean, you could walk around
I walked around Rome at like eleven o'clock at night
going to get gelato. Didn't worry about a thing here
in DC. How you gotta worry about noon at lunch
if you're walking down the street to get lunch. So yeah,

(06:40):
something needs to be done there. But we got a
lot to get into though, because the latest the DC
homeless now they're expected to either go to a shelter
and if they refuse, then they're going to go to
a jail, part of the crime crackdown. And in the meantime,
the left is apoplectic, so we're going to dive into that.
We also have it's over Texas. Democrats come back. It's

(07:01):
like the lack of shame. They come back to the
Republic of Texas and guess what that redistricting map that
they were fighting. It passed, but they say that their
goal was accomplished. They raised awareness. We have that for
you and a lot more on the way. As we
were all the folks over at Relief Factor and Relief

It's time for Dana's quickfive.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
Ooh, let's look at the Brits. British government is telling
subjects to delete emails to save what England's currently in
a drought Kine. It's the most severe climate crisis since
last year when they sustained flooding. In an effort to
stay calm and carry on, the British government is urging
citizens to delete o emails and pictures to help with

(09:06):
the dropped Caine. Yes, and you can fix your leaky
loo that can waste two hundred to four hundred litas
a day. Delete old emails and photos photographs as data
centers require a vast amount of water to cool their systems. Kane. Yes,

(09:27):
I mean you're an island surrounded by water. Just saying,

this is pretty hardcore. It's called Coffee with I don't
even know what it is. Coffee with Ken. They're suing
this dude. I don't know what he's about, but his

(09:48):

same name as their plastic doll. You're gonna have a
hard time Totel methinks with that tropical storm airin forms
to become the first Atlantic hurricane of twenty twenty five,
that means everything's gonna be effected. It's gonna be a
long track storm. It's eyeing the United States next week,

(10:10):
so we'll keep tabs on that as well. So a
microbiologist says, this is like obvious and properly maintained AC
units can harbor bacteria. Who didn't know that? I fear
for your safety. Jimmy Kimmel secures Italian citizenship? Do they
know who he is? Feel like that's not something that
they really want to do. He was bragging about that

(10:32):
in an interview that he was able to secure Italian citizenship.
If he thinks that our policies is from our administration
or conservative wait until he sees what the conservative faction
of their parliament wants to do. And also now there's
rabbits or tentacles on their heads in Colorado. They're called
Frankenstein rabbits. Yeah, they're trying to figure out they're mutated rabbits.

Speaker 5 (12:27):
Brighten up your timely news consumption with a Dana Show
podcast where every update comes with a little dash of
not so serious on YouTube, Apple or wherever you get
your podcasts.

Speaker 6 (12:38):
That I should note that the most violent moment in recent
history in DC plus January sixth, and it was an
attack on the United States Capital by a lot of
people who are doing it in the name of Donald Trump.
And it included the people who were hurt included members
of law enforcement.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
That's not correct, man, This is a Wendy's at CNN's
Dana Bash. It wasn't actually, it wasn't actually, I mean
let's not forget the left literally set a church on
fire right in front of the White House. I've walked
past that building many a time. They set a church

(13:17):
on fire, and the only person that was that the
fatality was when a Capitol Police officer. And remember this
is the left loves police shootings if they can get
police to shoot people on the right. As evidenced by
what happened on January sixth, you had a whole swat
team behind Ashley Babbitt, and you had a Capitol Police
officer who violated rule number one. Of course, when you're

(13:40):
shooting to kill someone, I guess you don't care about
violating any other firearm rules, do you. He didn't know,
didn't know his target or what was behind it, just
fired into the crowd, just fired into the crowd. It
hit her. I personally believe after the fact he modified
his story to say that he was trying to target her,
because I don't believe he was. I think he just
shut at the door. I think he freaked out, and
I think he shot at the door and it just

(14:01):
happened to strike her because I mean there was a
whole I mean, it was already contained. It was just asinine,
absolutely asinine, and of course they alionized him, you know,
but there's a lot more I could say about that.
But the idea that that was the that No, this
was the most this is the most violent thing. You

(14:22):
can't talk about crime. It's not even comparable. Welcome back
to the program, Dane Lash with you at the bottom
of the first hour. I mean, let's not forget too.
You had Stephen Son, who's the former chief of police
for the Capitol Police, who went at Nancy Pelosi just
the other day because she said that Trump delayed deploying

(14:42):
the National Guard on January sixth. And now remember she's
on video with all this, and he corrected her, and
he goes, man, it's long past duo, he said in
a tweet, to be honest with the American people. On
January third, I requested National Guard assistants, but your sergeant
at arms tonight, under a federal eye, was prohibited from
calling them in without specific approval. That same day, Carol
Corbin at the Pentagon offered National Guard support, but I

(15:04):
was forced to decline because I lacked the legal authority.
On January sixth, while the capital was under attack, and
despite my repeated calls. Your sergeant at arms again denied
my urgent requests for over seventy agonizing minutes, quote running
it up the chain in quote for your approval. When
I needed assistance, it was denied. Yet when it suited you,

(15:25):
you ordered fencing topped with Constantino wire and surrounded the
capitol with thousands of armed National Guard troops. I wouldn't
say attacked either, but there it is pretty unbelievable. Pretty unbelievable. Now,
now here's the thing. The difference between the right and
the left, and I'm done talking about this stupid issue,
is that we were on air when that happened, live

(15:47):
and we were very critical of it. You don't see
the let I have never seen anyone on the left
criticized the left literally setting a church on fire, they
set a house of they set a house of God
on fire. But these are the people that are going
to scream to you about Christians in quote unquote Palace Stein. Interesting. Right,
We're going to come back to that, by the way.
Also this the Texas Senate passed the map that added

(16:09):
five Republican seats eliminated five Democrat seats. Oh my gosh,
it the map makes sense.

Speaker 7 (16:14):
Again, Kane, we still have ways to go, I think.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
I mean, there's still a couple of little weird spots
down there around Houston. It gets into like the second
and the twenty second district. That's a little weird, but
vast improvement. Yeah yeah, yeah, way way improved. It's way improved.
It is actually crazy when you consider how jacked up

(16:40):
this map was prior. But they all, I don't want
to say what I called them on the rundown. I
called them sissy B's, which actually kind of would be
a great punk band name of Minnesota Vikings male cheerleaders. Yeah,
sissy Bees. So you guys know to me, the Texas Democrats,

(17:02):
they all came back. They all came. We had We
asked for James Tallerico and he wouldn't come on. Uh,
we asked for a couple of them. Now it's I mean,
we don't want it. And now it doesn't make any
sense to have them on because they all gave up.
They all gave up, and they with hat in hand,
hat in hand, they they did the walk of shame
back to the airport, back to Texas.

Speaker 7 (17:23):
I think it's important to note that even though there
wasn't anything nefarious done here by Texas even though there
was nothing, no corruption, no anything. The Democrats were calling
this corruption. The Democrats were calling this cheating. And just
so you know, in the face of corruption and in
the face of cheating, democrats will run away. Just remember that.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
Yeah. Absolutely, Well they've done it repeatedly, like three times
in ten years. They've done this. So they the Senate
passed the new map houses. You know, they're going to
have to hous doesn't have they They're they're going to
have to give up. It's it's done. They're back and
they said, well, our mission was accomplished because now all
of a sudden, their mission was apparently about raising awareness

(18:08):
that dude, I do I guess. So they're like, oh no,
it's about raising awareness now that's what it was about. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
we're victorious. Yeay, hey, we raised the awareness of whatness slick.

(18:31):
I'm sorry, what what is that? Yeah, they've decided that
they've had enough media attention and now they can come home.
I think what happened is that internal pulling showed that
they were getting hit pretty hard, and they yeah, I
think that's ultimately what it was. They were like, oh,
we're not gonna be able to it's bad. We're gonna
we're gonna be able to do this. So they, uh,

(18:53):
they're coming back and they're trying to act like they're victorious,
and I don't think so. So they now they're going
to because now they can address the funding for flood
victims and maybe property tax relief, they'd be great. And
this was after a judge ruled that Robert or Wark,

(19:15):
you remember the irishman who costplays as partially his partially Hispanic.
They call him baider, Robert or Rourke, Oh, Robert O'Rourke.
They his pack could not pay for their travel. What
was it his power to the people? Pack couldn't pay
for travel because that's basically I mean, you're that's a bribe.

(19:37):
And so I guess they they were racking up five
hundred dollars a day in fines because they were absent
special session, so they had to come back. They had
to come back, and uh, yeah that's theay ha ha ha.
So I don't know what are they gonna they they
think they're actually going to declare victory on something and
come back. Does any Democrat actually believe that they were
victorious than anything? Because it's very importan to me that

(20:00):
they know that they're not.

Speaker 7 (20:01):
Could they be specific as to what they were victorious about?
Can they? I don't know, clue us in on what.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
That victory was, like raising awareness and just like realizing stuff.
That's it. That's what it was. That's what it was, Kane.

Speaker 7 (20:20):
This is real life.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
Yeah, now you see why I hate taxes because that
my money goes to these people. It's wild. So I
don't know, I really feel like they just need to
be spanked when they come back in for regular duty.
I would make it as difficult as possible. I find
joy in that, you know, just hearing the lamentations of
my enemies, the weeping and crying of their women. I just,

(20:43):
you know, the uh. I guess like they raised awareness
of how bad they are and how they're really bad
at political poker and pretty much anything else involving math.
So that's not gonna not gonna work well. Now in
addition to this, can I just say I'm I'm gonna

(21:04):
come back to the DC stuff. Speaking of the left,
let's peak on over at the French left. These are
always entertaining people, are they not? Remember the French Left?
These are the people who are like Viva Republic. And
they talked about equality and voutine and let's get rid
of the ancient regime, only to immediately get a dictator
and another ancient regime right back in its place. But

(21:26):
this was after they turned on each other and chopped
off each other's heads in spectacular fashion. I mean, that's
the kind of theater Kane I can get in on.
So let's look at let's take a peek at today's
modern day left, shall we? Let's do so. Apparently, oh,
the French left they are campaigning. Oh, they're campaigning against

(21:50):
air conditioning during a heat wave because the right French
people who leaned to the right, they want an expansion
of cooling equipment. This was the first from Jeen's France press.
They said Marine la Pinne, the far right leader, and
that's a bad thing to say. Ooo, Zuzu. She declared

(22:14):
that she would deploy a major air conditioning equipment plan
around the country Cain if her Nationalist party eventually came
to power. Marine Tondilaire, the head of France's Green Party,
scoffed at miss Lapin's idea and instead suggested solutions to
warming temperatures that included that greening cities and making buildings

(22:40):
more energy efficient, and they said that in an opinion
essay in La Figuero, the conservative newspaper. They defended air conditioning,
you know, because they said making their fellow citizens sweat,
that's a bomber. But the left, no, no, no, they
were demanding that it is an environmental aberation ones that

(23:00):
must be overcome. Air conditioning is a far right that's
what the leftist French or claim. I can speak some
poor French, so the h yeah, they're air conditioning is
a far right concept in France. Tis better to sweat
and be stinky. No, I mean that's I mean, that's

(23:25):
a I feel like Pepe La Pew was a Can
was a right leaning, red blooded American French skunk. I
just say, how in the world is air conditioning right leaning?
Because it's evil? You should sweat and I have heat
sloke what I just don't. A friend of mine said, well,

(23:50):
that's you're a poor I can't now. I mean Paris
can get hot. I feel like their definition of heat
is not what we would can that are heat in Texas.
But I don't care because see I'm one of those people.
I'm like, oh my gosh, is it in It's sixty
five degrees outside. Time to turn on the heater. It's
time to light the fires. Let's light the Let's light

(24:13):
the fires of Rohan signal gond Or for Aid. I
mean that's it's the moment it gets sixty five, I'm like,
there's a crisp in the air. So I'm kind of
the opposite, but I don't also don't like the sweat,
but I also don't want to freeze to death. And

(24:35):
this is not a right or left leaning argument. It's
a women that have skin and can feel temperature's argument
in men who apparently don't and cannot. But I mean,
I am all for the French Left making people sweat
to death in order to prove the point that they are,
in fact the lesser party, the lesser ideology. That's I mean,
you know, if you're sweating and you smell, think the left.

(24:57):
I mean, that's they can go ahead and do that.
I would make a whole thing about that in France,
but that's what they're you know, because it's about the environment.
If you cools the neighborhoods in France, caine, what's will
happen is the sun will run out the energy and
it's a real fault. It's the dumbest stuff I've ever heard.

(25:17):
Remember they tried that in the United States, Like they
tried suggesting that maybe we have too much air conditioning
out of spite. I jacked that down to like sixty
eight out of spite. I will freeze it out out
of spite. Right, Like when they told everyone during COVID,
you need to stay home and wear a mask. And
you guys know I'm a notorious germaphobe. Some of you

(25:38):
have that figured out because if we see each other
out and about, you're like, I don't want to shake
hands because I know you're a weirdo and I appreciate that.
But now when But after COVID rewired me, and then
I wanted to just like touch all the handrails right
and then immediately touch my mouth. I wanted to just
like it was almost like an obsessive thing that I
had to do out of spite, right, like tempt the

(26:01):
fate as the giant middle finger to that ideology. I
don't know coming up, the potus is gonna review Smithsonian exhibitions,
and the left is melting down, so we're we're gonna
touch on this. We've got all the latest with DC
and Britain is done. Also Aliens, that's my favorite part.

(26:23):
And Islamism. The story of old Holy Sister Maria. She's
the Gosin nun that appeared on Tucker Carlson's broadcast. I mean,
she's George Stephanoppolo's sister and she hates the Jews, but
you know she's a nun, so that immediately makes a
holy holy. So we're gonna talk about all of that

(26:43):
and more coming up in our second hour to our
partners that'll bring you the program Angel Studios. If you

Speaker 7 (28:15):
Like SAMs through the Holy Glass. So are the days
of the United.

Speaker 8 (28:20):
States to Springfield now where Megachurch at Cornerstone Christian is
now selling personal seat licenses. The pastor says the new
season ticket model will guarantee congregant the seat every Sunday.

Speaker 9 (28:32):
Obviously, with the renovations of this new sanctuary coming this fall,
it costs money, and I think this is a great
way to really have an influx of cash into the
congregation here. A lot of parents are stressed on Sunday
morning trying to make it to church. Are we going
to have a you know, seat on time? Is there
going to be room for us? I think with a

(28:52):
personal seat license. Obviously, this is you know, an affluent
area of town, so we thought, you know, why not
as a church, you know, take advantage of that revenue.

Speaker 8 (29:03):
Street Master Doug says this new ticket model will aid
in trafficking congestion, but will also help in other ways.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
There's a lot of people there's no way that this
is real. No, because he's a comedian. Yes, this is
not real. That's John Chris. He's a comedian. You guys
got taken in by a John Chris skit.

Speaker 7 (29:25):
Is he really a comedian?

Speaker 2 (29:26):
Yes? Oh my gosh, you don't know who that is.
That's that is fake. That's John Christ. He is literally
a comedian. Oh my gosh, you guys they were selling me.
I'm playing this in this segment so hard. They're like,
oh my gosh, it's tickets for church. And I'm like what, okay,
all right, and we're playing it and I'm like, well,
I'll be to him this junk. He's a comedian. He's

(29:52):
like Trey Kennedy. Who is it? Trey Kennedy said the
other guy. They're really funny, Jamie Kennedy. No, no, no,
he's a Christian comedian. Well not even of course. He's
just like a very like I would say, like old
school and that he's not nasty and everybody can watch him.
But it's on like I see a stuff on Facebook
and all that stuff, and they're the ones like John

(30:12):
Christ used to go and and he was like the
he would be like the church lady going in Target
and you know, praising the deals and all that stuff,
or going into a Walmart and praising the deals and
you know all of that. That's like his whole thing.

Speaker 7 (30:24):
You're not concerning that. We kind of thought it was real.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
I mean, y'all need Jesus, that's what I'm thinking. All Right,
we got a whole second hour on the way, and
we're gonna talk about what you do with a problem,
Like Marie yah, stay with us our partners that make
the program possible. It's the folks at super Beats. I mean,
if you want to feel horrible and you know you
don't want to you don't want to do anything to
help your metabolism, you just want to slow it down

(30:49):
to slug slug level, then definitely do not take the
super Marine. No no, no one wants to feel great
and have healthy blood sugar and have really a great
functioning metabolism. No, you don't okaine superberine. Though, if you're
one of those people that do want that, you can.
You're in luck because you can actually get it five

(31:10):
dollars off at Sam's Club. I love shopping for mass quantities.
It's just one of the most American things you can do.
And you can go and get your mass quantities and
then get your Superbarine five dollars off. It goes from
now until August seventeenth. So if you I mean, you
know the super Beat arches it's about healthy blood pressure.
The Superberine is a doctor formulated form of unique high

(31:33):
absorption burbering. It's ten times higher absorption than standard burberine,
so this means fewer pills to swallow. It's just one
easy swallow to swallow capsule of the day and it
has powerful ingredients. They also include stuff to minimize gi stress,
things like olive fruit extract that also supports heart and
vascular health. You can find built the new Superbarine and
the number one best selling superbats Tarchoes at Sam's Club.

(31:54):
Support your metabolism and blood sugar for less than five
dollars off Superbraine at Sam's Club now through August eteenth.
Start today and get on the road to better cardiva
cardiovascular health support from the folks in human.

Speaker 10 (32:06):
These women aren't friends out for a run. They're actually
undercover police officers taking to the streets in Surrey as
part of a new operation trying to stop people cat
calling and harassing female runners.

Speaker 3 (32:21):
When we get pulked at, the staring, the hanging out
of the window just to look at us, and it
just it's so so so prevalent.

Speaker 10 (32:28):
And police teams are ready to intervene the moment the
officers are beat up, followed or shouted out pulling people over.

Speaker 11 (32:39):
Those kind of behaviors may not be criminal offenses in themselves,
but they still need to be addressed. And of course
the people that are likely to commit those kind of behaviors.
You know, they may then go on to commit more
serious offenses or more serious behaviors.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
This is the stupidest stuff I've ever seen in my life,
and it's actually what they're doing in Britain. Welcome back
to the program, Dana, lash with you at the top
of the second hour. They're actually doing this in Britain.
Did you hear you? You had the fella he said, well,
it's not actually a krayn in a per se. We
can't actually arrest them for cock cooling, but you know,
we're still gonna try to stop it. We're gonna use

(33:15):
a lot of tax pay a fund of resources. So
I feel like that Drake Meme, you know, oh grooming
gangs and Rotherham, you know, but cat calling, you know,
like an entrapment. That's that's the thing. That's the This
is insane. They're spending taxpayer dollars and I'm sorry they're
not sending us their best. Can I just be honest
for a moment, because this is why you guys are

(33:37):
really Ultimately you're like, just do it, Dana. I know
you just say what you think, and I know what
you're thinking. In your head. I mean, how many people
actually believe that all these dudes were turning these heads
over that one of them, one of them was like
some big fun you know what i mean, like from Heathers.
I'm just saying, uh, I think that they look goofy

(34:00):
because they're running around in a vest and my first
thought would be like why are you? I would be
looking like why are you in that? That's far It's
not you know, that's just dumb. But the fact that
they decided to actually they're actually like baiting people like
like I'm I'm just can't even believe this, So they did.

(34:20):
They had these British cops like go running, just go jogging,
and they now you know what the article didn't get into,
who are the people actually cat calling them? Would? I mean,
are they the same type of people that were getting
the girls and the grooming gangs and Rotham? I'm just
curious and honestly, what are these broads should be should

(34:43):
just be happy that she can still elicit some attention,
if I'm being honest, let's just be real about it.
If you're gonna sit here in shame men like this,
then I feel like, you know, Turnabout's fair play. But
they said that they created the Sari Police Department came
because they for lack of anything else to do. They
it creates a trial task fools and an entire month

(35:04):
cane and it led to eighteen wrists. Well that's completely
different from cat calling. Why are you comparing men who
are cat calling two? By the way, I've seen women
cat call the heck out of dudes. I have seen
in my lifetime more women cat call men than men

(35:27):
ever cat call women. It's just not something I get
offended by. It's I mean, it's one thing if someone's
like screaming abuse at you, which I've had happen, But
it's entirely different if someone's like paying you an audible
compliment by either whistling or something else. And I don't
know why women feel like I've got a way to

(35:48):
give myself power. So I'm just gonna pretend to be
offended and be a victim and like claim that as
my power. That's just lame, and then they're gonna complain later.
I just don't know why I can't get any dates. Well,
maybe because you've turned something innocent like that into something horrific.
So they they go, they were wearing tight fitting clothes.
They're wearing exercise clothes. You absolute morons. That's how it

(36:13):
was described in the British press. They're wearing legings and
like T shirts for crying out loud. Hope, but it's
not to Buka. But they said they were sent to
rush hour hotspots and they pretended to be joggers. No,
they were joggers. They were jogging. And they said one

(36:33):
person was honked at in ten minutes. Oh no, kill hello,
they honked at her. Yeah. Meanwhile in Rotherham for fifteen
years they were sexually abusing, molesting and trafficking minor girls,
even like as young as like twelve. But hey, they
honked at one of your h one of your cops

(36:55):
and legings. This is just so goofy, just just just
so goofy. They're like people down to stay. Do a
lot of people jog in that area because that might
be weird, right, I don't know, It's just I don't know.
This whole thing is I will absolutely stare at someone

(37:15):
if I see them jogging, especially if they look dumb
while they're doing it. Because every now and then you
have the person who either runs like what's his face
in a ruto or you got somebody that they they're
just like an arm swinger. Have you seen those? I
look at it because it's strange. It doesn't mean I'm
cat calling. I will look at them and be like

(37:35):
that person is running like a loon, look at them.
Or if they're like slapping their feet on the pavement
like a duck, you know, I'm like, look at that
person's form. Absolutely, they have no idea they're signing, especially
the people who are standing, they're signing motives to them.
Maybe they got honked because they weren't abiding right of way.
You never know. This is the stuff that they do
over there. They created an Immediate Trial task force for this,

(37:59):
but authorum abuse an entire an entire city where thousands
of young girls were trafficked by Pakistani men for almost
two decades and all of people like in high up
positions covered it up. That's you know, can't rush to

(38:21):
create a task force for that. But for this, Oh
yes we're going to create a task force. I and
then this this little the inspector John Vale, I feel
harassed just by this. Can you claim that like I
feel these people's like ridiculous reaction is harassing me. I

(38:41):
feel harassed. Where's my relief? That's what I just just
Britain man, I don't even know what's happening in Britain.
Case in point so this, Uh, they have a lot
of immigration coming in from Northern Africa, a lot. And
he had a Nigerian man and I'm not don't know

(39:02):
if I should try. His name Aomid Fama kind who
is from Nigeria. He sexually assaulted a young woman. But
because he had a troubled whatever that means, a quote
unquote troubled background, he wasn't given jail time. The judge
felt sorry for him, saying, oh, the prison sentence would
be too severe, so he just gets eighteen months of

(39:23):
community service and he was left to go. And it
was a teenager, and basically they were like, oh, he
doesn't know that. It's you just can't go around like
raping women, same country. You just can't go around. He
doesn't know that you just can't go around raping women.
So we just feel so bad for him that he

(39:44):
just doesn't know that he can do that. Yeah, he
was he targeted and sexually assaulted a teenager. The victim
says that she's terrified to go anywhere alone, and that
he ruined her life. And she tried to fight him off,
and he just he pulled her to the ground and
he was gonna brutally raper. You can't tell me he wasn't.

(40:05):
I mean he pulled her to the grounds, pulling off
her close. Yeah, and then someone pulled another individual intervene
and pulled him off of her. But the judge said,
well it was a momentary aberration. He had a very
troubled background. You see, he had a very difficult life.
You see, he's a gym instructor from South London. So

(40:25):
he was able to come to the UK Kane and
figure out how to get a job, how to apply
for a job, how to get a flat, how did
you do all of these things? But he didn't know
that you just can't go around right being women. Yeah,
they said no, no, no, a custodial sentence would be
too severe for him. I mean, screw the victim. I mean,
you know, not literally in case he gets the wrong idea.

(40:46):
But yeah, they the girl was at the beach with
her friend. They were walking back. They were walking back home,
and that seems like normal. You're at the beach with
your friend. You're a young woman. Shouldn't you be able
to go to the beach in your country and if
you live by the beach, walk home from the beach.

(41:08):
But that's when they were walking home together and he
approached them, and the victim said that she first realized
that somebody had put an arm around her waist, and
she was talking and looking at her friend, and then
she realized, all of a sudden, this guy appeared and
then he started shoving his hands down her pants and
knocked her to the ground, and they called police right away.

(41:29):
All the people at the scene identify this guy. There
was DNA evidence that linked him. He was found guilty
of sexual assault. And the victim goes, I didn't see
him coming and I certainly did not ask him to
ruin my life. He left me crying and injured on
the ground, asking for help, and she's like, I'm terrified
to walk alone in the street. And the judgees like, well,

(41:52):
you know, he expresses remorse. He's upright, young man with
clear potential. So we're gonna now, if you can't call
a woman and you're British person, you're you're gonna have
you know, the book thrown at you. But if you
come into the country from somewhere else and you, you know,
apparently are you can go out and get a job.
But then you want to claim ignorance when you realize

(42:13):
that you can't just go grabbing women like you capt
apparently came in your home country. Oh, then it's oh,
don't repeat it. You know, you get a you get
a little tap on the wrist, not even a slap.
Britain is conquered. They conquered themselves. The UK has conquered itself.
Never thought I'd see it. It's an invasion. All of
this is an invasion. I mean, that's that's the thing.

(42:35):
I have a couple of other stories on this front, Like,
for instance, where's this other story that I have a
couple of There was a man this is in Lewisville, Louisville, Kentucky.
This is a crazy story. This is uh uh Louisville, Kentucky.
The Metro Police they released the identity of a suspect.

(42:56):
There was a home invasion in a bank robbery, and uh,
the there was a guy who had stabbed a mom
and kidnapped a family. And the guy who stabbed the
mom and kidnapped the family was sentenced to fourteen years
in prison, but he only served five months because the
judge let him go. And this guy is like a

(43:16):
pretty I mean, he's got a lot of priors. There's
like a whole list where this guy who committed a
bank robbery he got out after it. I mean like
they slept them on the wrist, they let them go.
You know, here after a couple of months, you're allowing
criminals to conquer your country and up end your law
and order. And in Britain it definitely is a one

(43:38):
was It's a one way street. It's like their law
is almost decidedly against their own, like actual citizens. It
is unbelievable what's happening over there. Unbelievable. Now, coming up
a couple of things to discuss, because we got to
talk about this problem with the story of Sister Maria,

(44:02):
George Stephanopolis's sister. Stephanopoulos's sister is a nun and as
you can imagine, she has the exact same ideological bent
that he does, maybe even perhaps more so. And she's
been living in Upstate New York for what I guess
a couple of decades now, but that hasn't stopped her
from representing herself as being living in Gaza, but she
gave an interview recently and all of these people on

(44:24):
the so called woke right decided that they were going
to elevate her as some avatar for faith, you know.
And these are people themselves who transparently violate the claim
faith that they the faith they claim to uphold, but
they're defending and they're saying that this person is apparently
like the avatar of Christianity, a woman who defended hamas

(44:46):
verbatim in her interview that she gave. We're going to
talk about this and talk about what this woman really
is and the problem of these people that are rushing
to defend this just because they have a problem with Jews.
So we're gonna we're gonna dive into this. Why not
and though really love my column that's coming out, which

(45:07):
you know, that's something we'll talk about here as well
as we move our partners that help bring you the program. So,
folks over at Webroot, you cannot be too careful online anymore.
I mean, used to it would be it was something like,
you know, a rare phenomenon, but now it's an everyday
occurrence with all of the criminality and the sophistication that
the you know digital that a digital provides. When you're

(45:30):
looking for reliable digital protection that won't slow you down,
you need to go and check out Webroot. This is
powerful afford They have powerful, affordable options for individuals, for families,
it doesn't matter. I mean, you got to think about
your parents too. A lot of people are approaching like
that Sandwich generation. You've got your kids, you have your parents.
You need real time protection against legit everything, nowware, ransomware, fishing, more.

(45:51):
They have all of that with web Root. They have
antivirus and web protection. They have web threat shields that
block malicious websites, built in firewall. Uh. They have system
optimizer removing all the digital clutter. They have identity protection.
You can get up to a million dollars in stuff
related expense reimbursement, covers kids, student, seniors, dependents, you name it,
they cover it. Advanced dark web monitoring, credit and financial

(46:12):
monitoring with alerts everything, VPN for multiple devices, unlimited cloud backup.
I mean, webroot has it all. You can get fifteen
percent off of Webroot's total protection or webroot Essentials by
going to webroot dot com slash Data, but you cannot
get that offer anywhere else. It is only at webroot
dot com slash Dana for fifty percent off of webroots

(46:33):
total protection. That's five zero fifty percent off. Live a
better digital life with webroot.

Speaker 4 (46:39):
And now all of the news you would probably miss,
it's time for Dana's Quick five.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
So first up, apparently, well, I'm going to come back
to this one little headline because I just feel like
there's not enough information and the little tibbit, the little
bit that they gave you. Wendy Williams is guardianshipcase. Apparently
warring factions and merge as the court case gears up.
I feel so bad for her. She literally she was
like the first female radio powerhouse. She really was. I've

(47:09):
met her. I've been on our show her when she
had her TV show, was on her show a couple
of times, I know some time ago. She was always
one of the nicest people ever. Really, she was incredibly kind.
I really liked her. Her whole staff was great, and
I just, oh, I hate what's being done to her.
The let's say the simple life can bring greater happiness,

(47:30):
but apparently they say women experience greater well being benefits
than men, and the effects are consistent across income and
age groups. It's very interesting. So living simply apparently, I
mean frugality, self sufficiency, that which I think a lot
of people get caught up in the materialistic race. They

(47:50):
really do, and that just makes everybody nuts. And now
you have another survey that kind of confirms all of that.
So King of the Hill starts strong at Netflix and Hulu.
They said that Wednesday, King of the Hill all of
that Netflix and Hulu, and then they have k Pop
Demon Hunters. That's their other thing that they have. Yeah,

(48:11):
look at you, Cane, so excited. Squid Game that's another one.
So they're really doing very well. And I think Paramount
as well. So Paramount, Netflix and Hulu I think are
like the leaders. So it feels like they take turns
leading and an Amazon comes out with the series and
whips them and then they come out with something. So
it's very interesting. But these are some of the most

(48:32):
viewed movies in English and a lot of flakes. South
Korean stuff is getting very popular. South Korean stuff is
relatively pretty conservative. Let's see here we also have ooh goodness,
This is an insane headline. Two dead, fourteen hospitalized. They
eight tainted sausage and turnip top sandwiches in Italy. They
got them from a food truck in southwest Italy and

(48:52):
apparently it was the It's all linked to the country's
second toxic of botulism outbreak this month, twice a month,
so good heavens. I don't really know that I would
eat a turnip top sandwich. I gotta be honest with you,
feel like that that's not in the cards for me
coming up that Sister Maria interview. Stick with us. Burn
a gun is a great option from if you're disarmed.

(49:15):
Really ultimately, if you're disarmed from protecting yourself, and I mean,
there's all that out there. I would love to be
able to say, oh, I don't go to gun free zones,
but I'm a big kid, and I got to do
adult stuff and I got to do job stuff, and
I don't have the luxury of just crossing my arms
and saying I'm not going to go there, because I
you know, I got to. But I also don't want
to be left utterly defenseless as well. So Berna shoots
chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to

(49:38):
fifty feet away. It's legal in all fifty states, doesn't
require background checks or licenses or fees or any other
arbitrary bs. They can send it right to your door,
so it's accessible for everybody. There's no recoil, super easy
target acquisition. And with the new CL that's the burn
A Compact launcher. You got you have a fifteen round
shock capacity per cartridge. When you can that to stun guns,

(50:00):
you got like one or two shots and that's it.
So this is definitely you have a lot more options
for defense with this. There's the Burna SD, which is
both of these are pistols. SD's a little bit larger.
The CL's thirty eight percent smaller than the SD, and
they've got rifles and all that stuff. But I think
specifically for the purpose of self defense, y'all want to
be looking at the SD or the CL and college

(50:21):
kids that are going back to school, you're not old
enough to carry a pistol, and but you want to
be able to protect yourself. Maybe you live alone, you
live away from campus. The Burner gun is an absolute
diverse option for you to consider so that you can
still protect yourself, but it doesn't care about the gun
free zone signs. Visit Burna dot com slash data and
check out the new Burna cl the compact launcher that's

Keep your finger on the pulse with a Dana Show
podcast delivering timely news with insightful analysis whenever you want,
straight to you on YouTube, Apple or wherever you get
your podcasts.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
Welcome back Dana Lash with you. At a bust of
the second hour, there was a very interesting interview that
was making the rounds the other way. Actually, it wasn't
an interesting interview, which just an interesting individual and the claims,
not even the claims that they were making, because it
was so predictable. It was the ensuing defense of it

(51:18):
made by people who didn't watch the discussion, and not
that it was like one for the record books, but
they didn't watch the stupid stuff that was said, and
they definitely did not have any idea of the history
of this particular individual. And I'm talking about this interview
that was done with that this Agapias Stephanopolis. Her name

(51:41):
is Maria Stephanopolis, and she was on with Tucker Carlson
a full disclosure. I've known Tucker for years and I've
always been friendly with him, but I have no idea
why he did this, and I think it's important for
people to realize that, yes, it's George Stephanopolis's sister, and
normally I don't think that relations with siblings are really

(52:05):
factor into the analysis of someone, except that this woman
has benefited from George Stephanopolis's presence, not just in media,
but also when he was with the Clintons, because he
interceded for her at the State Department numerous times. And
that's a fact. There's a lot, there's a paper trail
that gets into this, that's a whole separate thing. So

(52:27):
she was giving this discussion where she was being asked
about because she's a nun, and she was in Gosh,
although she's not in Gaza now, but she had and
hasn't been for a while from what I understand, but
she previously was. And because she's a nun, and because
she hates Israel and has a problem with Jewish people,
which is evident if you're familiar at all with anything

(52:50):
she's ever said or done in her life, because she's
been pretty vocal since two thousand. That's how long this
goes back. A lot of people are just literally like,
yesterday or the day before is the first time they've
ever heard of her. And I've got a lot of
we're gonna deep dive into this, I got a lot
of history for you. So a lot of people are
just reacting to that, and they're completely ignorant of the
stunts that she's pulled in the past. So she does

(53:15):
this interview and because she's a nun, because she doesn't
like Israel and she doesn't like Jewish people, and she
defends hamas. Oh, well, she's a nun. So you can't
disagree with a nun. It's appealed to authority. It's an
absolute blatant, you know, elementary logical fallacy. You can't disagree
with her because she's a nun. If you disagree with her,
you're mocking a nun. If you disagree with her, you're

(53:36):
mocking Christianity. I think by holding her up as a
representation of Christianity, you are mocking Christianity. That's the first rule.
I wanted to play for you, and I have the
transcript of the entire interview. Also, I wanted to play
for you one cut in particular, that was like pretty
much in the beginning of all of this. And you

(53:59):
think that people who had any familiarity, or even if
they didn't have familiarity with her, after you hear a
SoundBite like this, you're like, what this is audio sound
bite twenty five where she is defending Hamas and she's
saying that October seventh was justified. This is that big
o' nun that everyone was saying is the measure of

(54:21):
whether or not you were a Christian, whether or not
you agree with her. And by these the people holding
her up are the woke right, the people who play
into identity politics as much as the left. So listen
to what she says here in this interview.

Speaker 12 (54:34):
Because I don't think it's Islami terror that's taking place
in the first place. I think we have to disabuse
ourselves of that notion that this is a battle between
Muslim and Jew or that you know constantly you heard
after October. The October event was that the Hamas hamas Hamas.
Even to this day we hear it's Hamas Hamas. What
is hamas? Hamas are people who have had their homes

(54:59):
taken from them, who if they live in Gaza have
not been able basically been in an open air prison
for certainly the last twenty years going on. Even when
Israelis withdrew from Gaza, they didn't leave open borders. There
was no freedom for people in Gaza to develop their economy.
If I know people who wanted to try to go
to school in America and couldn't get out of Gaza,

(55:22):
you know, had a full bright scholarship and weren't able
to live and couldn't get out. Israel didn't give a permission.
So what kind of freedom is that if you live
in Gaza.

Speaker 5 (55:30):
It couldn't even fly out.

Speaker 12 (55:32):
No, and their airport had been bombed in what two
thousand and early on there was an airport built soon after.

Speaker 2 (55:38):
So this is so asinine. Immediately, she's a simp for
Hamas and again for the people who say that if
you criticize this non or disagree with her, then you're
attacking Christians. If you hold this none up as a
representation of Christianity, you're attacking Christians. Even a devil concite Scripture.
So let's make that really clear right out of the

(56:00):
get go. She's immediately getting into all the palwood Hamas
talking points, Gaza and open air. First off, let's start
with the first claim that she was making that somehow
Hamas they were denied, they were given a strip of
land like of the welfare grifters that they are. Israel
unilaterally withdrew in two thousand and five they had free elections.

(56:22):
Don't tell me that the elections weren't legitimate either, because
then you're contradicting your point on Hamas and Gaza here. No,
they had a unilateral withdrawal in two thousand and five.
Two thousand and seven, Hamas took over. And by the way,
they had international observers from more countries than I can
count on two hands that witnessed all of these elections,

(56:44):
and they were there weeks prior, and even after watching everything,
they all concluded that these were free and fair elections.
Hamas took control of that strip. You have the Palestinian authority,
and I'm not going to get into the PLO and
the PA and all that you had FAUGHTA and hamasls
of the two biggest powers. FATA is essentially holding up

(57:05):
with under a Palastinian authority holding it down a West Bank,
and then you have Hamas in Gaza. So They were
given everything in Gaza, greenhouses, homes, schools, infrastructure, everything. They
a unilateral withdrawal by Israel. This is undisputed. And what

(57:27):
happened after Hamas assumed control. They had their elections in
O seven and they immediately began cannibalizing their own infrastructure
and everything so they could make bombs, and they could
dig tunnels, and they could attack their neighbors. You have
entire generations of people brought up to hate other individuals

(57:50):
because of their faith. That's what Hamas is. Hamasa is
the Muslim brotherhood. We'll talk more about that in a
little bit, but they absolutely are and their back by Iran.
There is lomists, They're zealous, they're terrorists. They're recognized as
a terrorist entity by the United States. That is who
Hamas is. There is no misunderstanding who they are. And

(58:15):
you have someone who claims to be essentially a shepherd
for Christ misleading people. I'm not going to tell you
what Scripture says about millstones and deep seas on that count,
misleading people on this now, George, Stephanopolis's sister here, and
remember her brother has intervened for her many a time

(58:38):
at the State Department there's lots of It's widely reported
for anyone who cares to get on this thing called
the Internet. But what's more is she's pulled stunts before.
This isn't the first time she's done it. She pulled
a stunt over there was a story where she was
sending emails out claiming a number of different things. For

(58:58):
she was also justifiying Ama, but she was claiming a
number of different things. Back in two thousand and two,
where you had a bunch of suicide bombings and there
had to be a sweep of some towns in the
West Bank to root out some of these terror cells
because people kept getting killed by these terror cells. And
then in Bethlehem there were a group of terrorist gunmen

(59:21):
who sees the Church of the Nativity, and they were
there for several days and they shot at Israeli soldiers
who were outside. And then she made up a story
and was sending in around everywhere, apparently an email that
was urging that was claiming that they defecated, that is

(59:43):
Israeli soldiers defecated in the Church of Nativity on the
or sorry on the floors of a Bethlehem medical a clinic,
that they were shooting at the Church of Nativity. Let's
ignore the fact that you had actual like terrorists inside
of the Church of Nativity shooting at random people and
Israeli soldiers outside. She also claimed that they were looting
homes and all of this stuff, making all of this
stuff up. It was ultimately all debunked. It was all

(01:00:08):
entirely debunked. In fact, Paul Sperry was the reporter that
first debunked it, and she even had to admit that
she did not witness any of these atrocities. That was
Maria Stephanopoulos that wrote it, and then later on Robert
Novak cited her as some sort of source of authority
when making these claims on behalf of Hamas later, So

(01:00:30):
you see how poisonous this Pollywood stunt is, and it
goes back a long time. She is a Hamas apologist.
She is a proven serial liar, a proven liar, an

(01:00:51):
apologist for terror. She is not a representation of Christianity,
Orthodox or otherwise. Judge them by their fruits and I am.
That's called Christian discernment, and we're called to have it
in scripture. There was a uh yeah, she was. Some

(01:01:11):
people joked and called her Novak's nun after all of
that happened. In fact, Novak made uh. He was he
was writing members of he was a columnist, Robert Novak,
and he went off on you know, all kinds. He
didn't wasn't exactly a fan of you know, people on
the right, uh. And he would he was sending out

(01:01:31):
emails and letters or letters sorry, to people who were
apparently like defending Israel whenever they had to defend themselves
for the millionth of time, and he would cite her
as like an authoritative source, you know. Uh, but this
is who this person is. And to not even divulge
any of that before you sit down and prop her
up as some sort of authority on this. And it's
an appeal to authority with faith, which I find absolutely demonic.

(01:01:57):
Holding up someone a proven liar, an apologist for terror
and holding them up as an as some unquestionable representation
of faith is demonic. You don't have to criticize me
for that, because I'm just simply revealing, do you, widely
reported accounts of her, very publicized, very well established known behavior.

(01:02:24):
So this is all a major problem. And I made
mention of this yesterday on air, and I was really
shocked at the idiocy that I saw. I mean, she
actually is defending Hamas and she refuses to call it
Islamic terror. And then here she comes back in a
later she's like, no, Hamas, this has nothing to do
with America. Audio someund BYTE's seventeen. Please.

Speaker 12 (01:02:47):
We're just flooded with this message that those terrarists are
coming to get us next, which is absurd as any
member of Hamas or anybody of a POLS didn't come
with threaten America as an American.

Speaker 2 (01:02:59):
No, no, they just kidnapped Americans. I guess that's forgotten
in her defense of October seventh, there were a handful
of Americans that were also kidnapped. Furthermore, they are the
Muslim Brotherhood backed by Iran. This isn't indisputable. These are
all facts, and it just shocks me that none of

(01:03:21):
this is presented. The Muslim Brotherhood is Hamas, and the
eighty eight Charter has declared it is a wing of
the Muslim Brotherhood. The Muslim Brotherhood is an absolute terrorist
enemy of the United States. Now you want to keep
going with the Clinton connection, Lets so you have George
Stefanopolis's sister defending hamas slash Muslim Brotherhood. It was Hillary

(01:03:46):
Clinton who was at and George Stefanopolis worked for Bill
and Hillary Clinton. Not only was he doing comms for
Bill Clinton during campaign and also when he was in
the White House, but he also worked with the Clinton Foundation.
And of course Hillary Clinton, as you know, backed the
Muslim Brotherhood even when they were outlawed in Egypt. She
backed the Muslim Brotherhood right before the Green Revolution. She

(01:04:09):
actually backed the terrorist entity in elections in Egypt, which
was unbelievable. This is when Hillary Clinton was making a
mess of Libya and Egypt and Iran and everything else.
Jimmy Carter would have been proud. The only political correctness
for a very very long time prevented the Muslim Brotherhood

(01:04:30):
from being called a terrorist entity. I should know because
I started getting involved as a very very young woman
at age twenty twenty one in a political commentary back
after nine to eleven, and even then it was can
you remember this, Oh my goodness, it was very sensitive
call the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization. But they are there.

(01:04:52):
It's a terrorist grip. They're banned in Egypt, they're related
to care. Also, the Council for American Islamic Relations. Everyone
talks about APAC, but nobody wants to talk about care.
Who can't do that. What this is is a bunch
of geopolitical baka bazi that are trying to please their
Katari masters. That's what this interview was. That's what this

(01:05:13):
narrative is. And that's what a lot of people in
the woke writer turning into a bunch of little dancing
bacha bazi for their Arab masters. That's exactly what this is.
At the sake of a national security, at the sake
of security of our Western allies, at the sake of
integrity about the own fate that they claim to uphold.

(01:05:36):
It's very disappointing to see. But I don't know, it's
something else. I tell you, I have a lot more
on this, and I have a column that'll be coming
out this week that gets gets into it a little
bit more. But that is the truth of this matter,
and that is who that so called none is. Remember,

(01:05:56):
even the devil can cite scripture, and sometimes the devil
helps the devil to promote it too. Keltech the PR

Speaker 7 (01:06:56):
It's his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida.

Speaker 2 (01:07:04):
Man oh Well. Wild brawl broke out amongst swimsuit clad
boaters at a Florida lake in front of families, kids, pets, everybody, nature, everything.
A big old fight broke out amongst a bunch of
boaters at a Florida lake over the weekend. A man
was knocked unconscious and left floating face down in the water.
According to a video, it happened at Lake winter Set

(01:07:26):
in Polk County in front of kids. They were relaxing
lakeside with their family. According to Pop Kind of sheriff Office,
seven men and a seventeen year old boy were arrested.
Sheriff Grady Judd announced yesterday that he was going to
make an example out of the hooligans. And I mean
it's one. I mean I watched one fella get knocked
face out, just knocked out, and he went face down
on the ground. Another was face down in the water,

(01:07:46):
punches flying at random. A woman in a pink bikini
tried CPR on one knocked out man. The chaos very
like I mean, I don't even know if we can
play the video. Can you show some of the screenshots.
I don't know if we can actually play the video
because there's so much cussing in it. But they were
showing just like some b roll and all the men
are in their late teens or early twenties except for
one forty year old man. And the sheriff said that

(01:08:09):
they're gonna crack down on delinquency. But they were fighting
and are brawling and nobody actually even knows what over
that's the you know, I'm yeah, I'm just say they
don't even know. A Florida man is accused of gtting
his grandfather a drug cocktail to quote ease up his death.
The man said, I helped him out. Okay, Yeah, it's

(01:08:29):
euthanasia and it's also murder. And that's not helping nobody out.
That's not what that is. Oh my gosh. So now
he's uh, I can't get this open. Now he's gonna
he's gonna be sentence and he's gonna be going into
jail for that, and then well I'll get I'll get
you tomorrow. The guy who was arrested and said he
drank too much on the body cam footage and yeah,
he very evidently did stick with us more in store.

(01:08:51):
They're out.

Speaker 13 (01:08:52):
We are in a basketball game right now, if you'll
excuse a metaphor, where the refs have left the arena
and the other side is just clobbering out of its
punching us in the face, kicking us in the nuts,
and we're kind of throwing our hands up and we're
asking the crowd, the people of America Hey, do you
see what's.

Speaker 2 (01:09:07):
Going on here?

Speaker 13 (01:09:08):
This is unfair. This isn't the rules that we agreed
to play by. Well, who cares about the rules right now? Punchback, kickback,
dunk over their heads.

Speaker 2 (01:09:19):
And win some power. He's so tough, beto? Or why
does he throws hands around so much? Oh my gosh,
this guy couldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight.
Welcome back to the program, Daniel Nash with you. We're
at the top of our third hour. He's when is
he not awkward? So he's out there. I don't think

(01:09:40):
he has a job still, I asked this. I think
I made mention of this. Where was it? Was it
yesterday at some point and I was remarking on the
fact that he's grifting off of this pack that he created,
and he takes money from it. But he doesn't like,

(01:10:01):
actually do anything. He doesn't actually work. He's just I mean,
who knows what he does. But he's trying to be
so tough, right, He's somebody who can't win a race,
but he created a pack to grift off of instead
of getting a job. I mean, he's like actual walking
birth control. I what does he know about any of
this stuff again. This is a guy who wrote about

(01:10:22):
rape fantasies, and he wrote poetry about it, and he
dressed up as a furry and then don't forget the
DWY and the hit and run and he tried to
flee from an accident scene. But he was able actually
to get ex honored. Well, he got off those charges
because his daddy's a judge. His daddy's a judge. So

(01:10:45):
he's telling people to fight back. I don't think this
is going to go over so well for Democrats, and
I think they actually need to do less of that.
I mean, these are the people who who set a
church on fire in DC. By the way, speaking of
DC and that whole problem Baltimore, their mayor, Well, this
was the solution that he offered potus audio sound by five.

Speaker 14 (01:11:09):
This says we, under my direction, my police department has
taking twenty five hundred guns off the street each of
the last two years. The president could also do some
very simple things for us shake not just for Baltimore,
but for the whole country. The president can say no,
one will no longer be able to go into a
store and buy AAR fifteen. The President could join mayor's

(01:11:30):
around and stand up the glock to end of these glocks,
which is that allow our residents and our police officers
to be.

Speaker 2 (01:11:38):
Shot with They're not. That's so stupid. He sounds like.
He sounds like if I were to talk to you
about football, that's what that dude sounds like. That's not
at all. No, So no, no, the means they're not
getting glock switches. They're not. Oh my gosh, stop it.
Uh they have all of that in DC. Everything's banned

(01:11:58):
in DC. You can't go and I don't even have
ffl is in DC. I think they have like one
maybe range or one thing that you can process. That's it.
Maybe I actually everything's outside of it. So I don't
even know what that guy's talking about the problem of
crime in DC. This is uh. I mean that's I

(01:12:21):
think that the way that the president is approaching it.
That's the only option that a lot of these local
officials left him. Audio is somebody eleven to touch on this.
This is Jamie Raskin. Now, I want you to listen.
He admits and seeds the point about crime, but then
he messes it up. Listen eleven.

Speaker 15 (01:12:36):
Sorry to go out, but look, I agree, you know
you can't feel safe enough, especially these days. The question
is who you trust to promote your security in public safety?
Is that the mayor and the council and the people
who actually report to people who live there, or do
you trust Donald Trump to do that? Because you know

(01:12:57):
his attention span is like you know, third two seconds
and then he's going to be off to talking about
the tariffs, or he's going to be off and talking
about something in Los Angeles or whatever. I mean, you've
got to trust the local officials to do this, and.

Speaker 2 (01:13:13):
I mean the same Okay, to interrupt Raskin, do you
mean by local officials does he mean the DC police
commander who was suspended and accused of changing the crime
statistics that local because that's one of the people who
is responsible for finktheeness him. I'm just curious he's still
I mean, there's an investigation into not one, but now

(01:13:33):
two high ups in the DC Police uh in their
department because they were making changes to crime statistics within
their district metropolitan Police department. And this is from NBC four.
Just last month, they confirmed that Michael Pulliam was placed
on paid administrative leave in mid May, he filed a
complaint against an assistant chief and a police union accused

(01:13:53):
the department of deliberately falsifying crime data to make it
appear like violent crime had fallen considerably. So I really
wish that the reporter that was interviewing Jamie Raskin either
knew it either was motivated enough to do a better
job so that I mean, if she was, she would
have dove into this and found all of this stuff herself,

(01:14:17):
or if she had better producers that could have properly
prepped her, she could have followed up and said, well,
wasn't that the responsibility of Michael Pulliam, But he was
placed on paid lead because he refused to do the
exact same thing that you're talking about. So does that
not ultimately then just make Trump's argument Now we're asking,
wouldn't be able to answer that because it does. That's

(01:14:39):
the problem. It absolutely does. Yeah, this guy is under
investigation because he changed crime data and he's being accused
of decreasing it and making it look like it had
this precipitous drop compared to last year. So how can
you trust the peopleeople who are lying about how much

(01:15:02):
crime is occurring to fix the increase in the increase
in crime that's occurring. That's a question. I mean, it's
rhetorical because the answers you can't. Thus that is why.
And I'm saying this is somebody who does not like
a police state. And I get very capital al libertarian
on a lot of this stuff. What else is there
to do when you have local officials that are abandoning

(01:15:26):
their posts, abdicating their responsibility to their constituency in our
nation's capital the less, what other options have they left us.
This isn't about what Trump chose to do. It's about
what Trump was forced into doing because of the inaction

(01:15:47):
of these dishonest city servants. I mean, I have to
say kudos to the individual in the police department there
who blew the whistle on it. I mean, hopefully there's
not going to be any kind of retribution against that
individual for doing so. But this is a major issue,

(01:16:09):
and apparently there's like a several of this. There's several
I mean, when you can't trust your your elected officials
to properly do this. This goes back to and it's
making me think of 'm me pull this story up
in California when they began, when they began just under
reporting crime and they began reclassifying certain even violent crimes

(01:16:34):
as like you know petty you know petty charges. They
have a major issue in California as an example, with
underreporting crime. DC has an issue. They had an issue
even prior to this case with underreporting crime. I have
a couple of friends who work at a couple of
different outlets that we're talking that have talked about this.
Politico had a story on it before. Wall Street Journal
had a story on it before. But this is like

(01:16:56):
a common factor in so many Democrat run cities. And
what sets DC apart obviously is because it is the
nation's capital. And I go back to what I said
in the first hour, Is that not the foyer of
the nation, the nation's capital. Is that not like the
curb appeal right there? Should it not have curb appeal?

(01:17:18):
Should they out of all the cities in the nation,
should that city not have the cleanest streets and the
least amount of crime. It is our nation's capital. It's
where we accept foreign dignitaries, it's where our government does business.
It's where a president does business. It's where we have
our monuments and our you know, founding texts, our museums,

(01:17:42):
that chart our amazing history. Should it not be the
example to which every city aspires in terms of cleanliness
and being crime free? Should that not be the example?
And it's sad that it can't be. It is a
gorgeous city, It is truly beautiful. I love architecture. I'm

(01:18:04):
a huge architecture nerd, and I love so many of
the buildings in that city. But unfortunately it has been
allowed to just rot. And it's it's not an aberration,
this is something that is just endemic. And all of
these Democrat run cities I'm looking at. I don't want

(01:18:26):
to spend like the whole hour on this, but my gosh,
I'm looking at I went into a rabbit hole yesterday
and I was looking at everything from Los Angeles to Oakland,
to Phoenix, to Dallas, to Houston, to San Antonio to Austin,
all of these, all of the major cities, Democrat run
major cities, and every single one of them. There there's

(01:18:47):
this trend that's been developing in the last fifteen years
where they want to they really want to out compete
with each other to see who can lower crime. They
don't want to actually lower crime through you know, positive enforcement,
of law, you know, actual good penalties, good prosecution, anything
like that. They just want to underreport it to give
the appearance that they're lowering crime. So that way the
elected officials can get all the accolades without doing any

(01:19:09):
of the work. And that's also something that's a trait
that shared amongst the left, is it not they want
the accolades and they want the titles, and they want
they want to be publicly lauded, but they don't want
to do any of the work to achieve any of this.
It's like people who don't want to do any of
the work, but they want power, so they decide to
bitch and moan and make themselves victims and then they
claim power that way than through any kind of meritocracy.
It's still anti meritocracy. So this is this is a

(01:19:34):
huge problem. And I think one I mean, rask and
SoundBite was amazing in that it was so unbelievably contradictory
and dumb, and I wish that the reporter that he
was talking to knew enough about the issue to where
she could have countered it and said, you mean the
same people who are fudging statistics and getting in trouble
for it, but she didn't. I don't know. And the

(01:19:55):
other thing that you know, when democrats, I go back
to getting out the vote, and it was something that
Florida Governor Run DeSantis had said when he was talking
about mail in balloting. He was like, yeah, well, you
know in places where mail in ballads are legal, Yeah,
let's go ahead and just flood that zone. Let's go

(01:20:17):
ahead and get so good at it that Democrats want
to outlt. I mean, if they want to play by
that established set of rules, then get better than they
are at it. And I guarantee you they will not
want to play by those rules anymore. We've seen this
happen in a couple of different areas.

Speaker 4 (01:20:36):
And now all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's quick five.

Speaker 2 (01:20:41):
Fun fact playing a little bit of Queen and David
Bowie under pressure on our way in as bumper. Once
when I worked at a record store back during the
college days, I played that and someone thought I was
playing Vanilla Ice and I kicked them out of the store.
I made them leave and I said, you have a
one month ban until you get better tastes. I mean,
I don't not that I dislike robbing and legal. But
the fact that you didn't know what that was sampled
from Get Out of My Get out of the Store.

(01:21:02):
All right, so true story. Let's see this is from
the hill, ma'm danny. I have to say it the
way that they say in Gloria's Bastard's Nancy. Ma'm danny.
He's leading the New York City mayor race by nineteen
points in the latest Siana Research Institute pull. He's at
forty four. Kuoma's at twenty five, Silawa is at twelve.

(01:21:24):
Eric Adams is at seven. I mean, this is just
getting I don't know, here we go. This actually surprised me.
NFL's heaviest player four hundred and sixty four pounds. He's
deemed too fat to play. Yeah, and he's forced to

(01:21:45):
watch from the sidelines until he loses weight. Desmond Watson.
They have no idea when he's going to be able
to return. He's the heaviest, He's on track to be
the heaviest in history. He's Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He's got
to lose a lot of weight. Apparently, they said they
have to get the number down. He still has a
lot of work to do. They said he's doing a
solid job. That's all I'm gonna say. So, man a lot,

(01:22:05):
that's a lot in.

Speaker 7 (01:22:07):
The off season. He had to gain a lot, I guess,
or else he wouldn't have been signed if they knew
physically wasn't able to play.

Speaker 2 (01:22:14):
Yeah, I think that's so.

Speaker 7 (01:22:15):
I think something happened over this break.

Speaker 2 (01:22:17):
I mean, I think someone wasn't eating healthy, you know,
And I get it, you know. I mean you're in
the you're in the grocery store and you're walking by
them star crunches. My kids did not know what a
star crunch was.

Speaker 7 (01:22:26):
I haven't had one of those in decades.

Speaker 2 (01:22:28):
First off, but I know I got other headlines. That's
a test to determine whether or not someone is worthy
of being in your group during an apocalypse, Do they
know what a star crunch is? They don't get out,
go to jail, right to jail. That's where you got
us major airline warrants. It's gonna shut without a cash boost. Well,
I don't know. Maybe if we allowed things to be privatized,

(01:22:49):
and you know, I don't know, we had better service
and we weren't treated like cattle. Spirit airlines. Isn't that
where all the fights happen. Isn't that the waffle House
of the Skies? Spirit Airlines, it's the waffle House of
the Skies. They'll just slap you out of the plane.
You don't even need to, like, you know, deboard. They'll
just slept and he slept you right off. They said
that they don't have a lot of money and they

(01:23:10):
need help. Okay, let's see. I mean it was arrested.
If you're breaking into a Redmond auto shop, he had
to get his phone back. I mean, I understand you
want your phone back, but isn't there a way that
maybe you could wait or maybe try to get a
hold of Then it was at one thirty pm, so

(01:23:31):
it was in the middle of the afternoon. But the
way that he did it, though, he threw a rock
right through the front door. That's not the way to
do that, right. So I don't know. Maybe they were
out for lunch whatever it was, but you could have waited.
You didn't need to throw a rock and bust their
door in. That's just and then enter it while it
was unoccupied. That's target cookie recall. Thousands of popular sugar

(01:23:53):
cookies recalled because they got wood pieces in them. I mean,
do you know what cellulus is? Number one? Number two?
Why are you by? I don't. I will not buy
cookie dough. I'm not going to buy the cookie dough
like that. Make it. It's so easy, especially sugar cookie.
It's like the easiest cookie to make, and it's so
much better. It tastes better. Your kids will think you're amazing.

(01:24:14):
They will love you. Don't buy this stuff. Don't buy it.
It's junk.

Speaker 7 (01:24:18):
Best part.

Speaker 13 (01:24:19):
No wood.

Speaker 2 (01:24:20):
Yeah, and there's no wood in it. That's right, no wood,
no bug legs, none of that stuff is in there.
O ooh, yeah, that's what celluls is. But all right,
coming up the redistricting, it's cracky. It's all crazy. We're
going to have that and so much more.

Speaker 16 (01:24:50):
It's interesting which mayors in which cities chosen He's chosen
to focus on in Los Angeles, where you have crime
down sixty year low in terms of of homicides, homelessness
is down. He points to homelessness, and he points to
crime in Washington, d C. I don't know what's going
on there, but I imagine that they are not suffering

(01:25:12):
in the despair that he described in his press conference
that in any way would warrant the use of federal
officials in this manner.

Speaker 2 (01:25:22):
Well, that's Karen Bass cultural delicious Bass. You don't know,
that's from Napoleon Dynamite. We can't be friends, some delicious Bass.
She's like, you know, DC residents are not suffering with
rampant crime. How would she know? And they are. Actually,
that's the thing they are. They are suffering from rampant crime. Woman.

(01:25:45):
Welcome back to the program, Dana lash with you. Where
there was one that I didn't get to and I
wanted to apologies for this. I wanted to pull this
up because I had This is one of the things
that I had to actually a ton of things that
I still have to touch on. This is a oh yeah, okay,
So the Smithsonian stuff in addition to the cracking down

(01:26:07):
on crime, because heaven forbid, you allow the streets to
look like a crack den of dangerous people. And I've
dealt with the homeless in DC myself. I told you
that before several times had to do work there was
there routinely, you know, and it's gotten worse. It's gotten
to monstrably worse. Now on top of this, he's just

(01:26:28):
like ticking all the boxes to tick them off. Now
they're going to examine a review Smithsonian exhibitions what they
want to sell. I mean, it's shouldn't be about celebrating
American exceptionalism. One of my favorite museums was the Smithsonian,
the American Museum Americana, and the World War Two exhibits

(01:26:50):
specifically gone there. I've taken my kids there. They're amazing,
and I'm a huge World War II history buff, and
I loved just, oh gosh, it's just amazing seeing some
of the stuff that they have there. The White House
posted a letter on its website that read, quote letter
to the Smithsonian internal review of Smithsonian Exhibitions and Materials.

(01:27:11):
They wanted to have a quote broader vision of excellence
that highlights historically accurate, uplifting, and inclusive portrayals of America's heritage.
So they want to make sure that it's aligning with
this directive to celebrate American exceptionalism. This is all from

(01:27:31):
the letter, remove divisive or partisan narratives, and restore confidence
in our shared cultural institutions. That that doesn't sound bad,
King so far, I mean does that sound bad? I
mean yeah, that's all good, right, nobody wants a historical divisiveness.

(01:27:52):
We want to all have confidence in our shared cultural institutions, right, yeah.
So they want to have public facing content, a review
of the exhibition text, wall, dietactics. They want to have
educational materials, digital social media content. They want to they
want to quote, assess tone, historical framing, and alignment with

(01:28:13):
American ideals. Then a curatorial process to talk with the
curators and seeing your staff. I'm reading from the letter
that understands the selection process, exhibition approval workflows, et cetera,
et cetera, exhibition planning. Because we have our two hundred
and fiftieth anniversary for the Declaration of Independence coming up
of America's founding, et cetera. They want to evaluate how

(01:28:35):
existing materials and collections are being used or could be
used to highlight American achievement and progress, and whether or
not they can digitize or convey to other institutions certain materials.
And they want to make sure that they have curatorial
guidelines that reflect their original mission. Here's David axelrod quote,

(01:29:00):
gonna make my David Axelroon face. The White House plans
to conduct a far reaching review of Smithsonian Museum exhibitions, materials,
and operations. The guy who declared their independence from a
mad king two hundred and forty nine years ago would
have lots to say about this. What what mother Jones?
Big mother Jones is like the charman of editorial toilet paper. Okay,

(01:29:26):
not even Sharman. It's a one play. They wrote. The
White House is pressuring the Smithsonian to eliminate political influence.
That's Orwellian. What's Orwellian is the political influence that you've
already infused and infested the Smithsonian with. That is what
is Orwellian. And then the Daily Beast Trump's initiative to

(01:29:51):
make history great again is now threatening to bulldoze Smithsonian exhibits.
Oh oh wait, here's political. White House announced the Smithsonian's
review amid Trump's cultural reckoning. What the left tried to
do was Mao's Color Revolution, rewriting our history, trying to

(01:30:19):
shame us and shame our founding, trying to only focus
on the sins and without any grace and ignore the
excuse me, the amazing journey of reconciliation and redemption and

(01:30:40):
the story arc of our country, of any country. I mean,
that's that is, that's the Orwellian aspect of it. That
is what they did. They wanted to rewrite history and
wanted to denigrate our founders so that we would somehow
divorce ourselves elves, because we did not want to have

(01:31:01):
our characters impugned by association. If they can make you
think that something is bad, you will voluntarily separate yourself
from it so as to not be stained by it.
You will remove yourself from association. So it was a
chilling effect. They wanted you to think this thing was bad.
They want you to think the founders have faults and
thus are imperfect, and that the founders are imperfect and

(01:31:22):
our nature's founding is void. That's the that's the whole
goal of CRT to make you lose faith in the
very fabric of this nation and the very pillars of
our institutions, so that if we believe that these people
are faulty, then the entire purpose of the nation, the

(01:31:43):
premise of this nation, can be called into question. I mean,
it is a very graceless, punitive, maliciously dishonest framing. It
also ignores Old and New Testament. I mean, let's not
look at, you know, Jesus' family lineage, shall we if
they want to have these applied arguments. But I digress.

(01:32:06):
But that's the whole purpose of it is they wanted
you to feel shame. Therefore you would voluntarily divorce yourself
from this without and then you would you would distance
yourself from that. You wouldn't be maybe as excited to
talk about George Washington as excited to talk about Thomas Jefferson.
You know, these people who themselves have commit no sin
in their own lives. I mean, that's just stupid. I mean,

(01:32:30):
by that measure, then you would have to question Jesus
because look at David and look at everyone who came
in that family line before him. I mean, it's an
absolute rejection of God equips the called doesn't call the equipped.
It's a total rejection of it. And it's a rejection

(01:32:53):
of that grace and the whole purpose of that story
because it's all about magnifying God's greatness and not mankind's.
It ignores all of that and so it is a
bastardization of it. It is evil and malicious, but that
is the whole purpose of it. And they have infested
the Smithsonian with us mentality, and so all this is

(01:33:16):
is removing the infestation. That's not Orwellian. It's removing the
Orwellian It was Orwellian to demand that we rewrite history books.
It's Orwellian to demand that we somehow blame ourselves for
having a free and prosperous nation. It is Orwellian to

(01:33:37):
demand that our freedom isn't really a just freedom because
our founders were and were fallible. Well everyone is at
least they're honest about it, where the left isn't. So
I think this is high time that it happens now.

(01:33:58):
The Smithsonian gave statement to USA Today saying they were
not asked by any administration or any government official to
remove anything, and they said they they put the USA
Today noted that smithsonia puts Trump's name back in the
museum's impeachment display with changes, and I guess it has

(01:34:18):
a caveat. I keep seeing that they just did. That's
just like stuff to be petty, you know, if they
really wanted to have like a legitimate exhibition about that
they would compare that impeachment to Clinton's impeachment, or they
would look at Nixon and then Clinton and then maybe Trump,
and then they could compare, Okay, well, what criminal charge.

(01:34:39):
Let's look at the criminality involved in this case with
Trump and then in this case with Clinton, because there
were criminal charges involved with Clinton that was based on
a criminal case. And part of the reason why it
was so further compounded is because the Clintons did everything
they could to try to hide it. It all started
with Whitewater and went from there Paula Jones, and then

(01:35:00):
just kept adding up and with Trump, there was no
actual criminality and even if there had been, it would
have been a misdemeanor. And that's where you hear the bookkeeping.
This is the New York case, a misdemeanor bookkeeping error

(01:35:20):
that was actually years past the statute of limitations. And
then they fabricated a charge for which they never actually explained,
and they advised the jury to discard it just to
accept the fact that there exists another charge for another crime.

(01:35:42):
But we're not going to tell you the nature of it.
But the whole reason that they wanted there to be
the existence of some unexplained crime was so that they
could dredge back this expired accusation and then, in New
York's weird twisted law, combine it to elevate it to
a federal affair any level. There were a lot of
attorneys in New York that are very rapidly progressive that

(01:36:05):
would not even touch it because they thought this is
so stupid. But Alvin Bragg, well, he's there, uh whipping
boy basically, I don't know how you call him. He's
they get him to do everything. He was like, I'll
do it. He has more ambition than since the only
other person who maybe outmatches him is Hillary Clinton. But

(01:36:27):
they had Alvin Bragg do it. And then he brought
this case and there was no criminal conviction. They just
had the opposite of a homecoming contest. It's an unpopularity contest.
That's what he won with Democrats. Ooh, and then they
had all these different processed charges just because they wanted
to up the number and make it look like there
were a lot of crimes that he was convicted of

(01:36:49):
because they knew nobody was going to go in there
and look, oh, what is this thirty thirty six different charges.
Every time you send an email, that's another charge. You
replied to it, that's another charge. I mean, it was
all the same case, but it's like every little bitty
ancillary thing related to this one thing there just they'll
feather up another charge. That's what it was all about.
If they really wanted to have a very educational exhibit,

(01:37:12):
they would explain that in detail, but they don't because
it's all partisan. So yes, removing that that would That's
actually the opposite of Orwellian keeping it in there is.

Well, I'm home and let me tell you all over
the country, we will continue to stand up for our
rights and we will continue to call out the terrorist
organization that is ICE.

Speaker 2 (01:37:51):
Oh, I thought we were getting Pritzker. So can we
play audio sound by twenty three please? That's one we
had highlighted. Thank you.

Speaker 5 (01:38:02):
We built a firewall around civil rights in this state,
and we turned this state into a safe haven for
women's reproductive rights.

Speaker 2 (01:38:13):
Come to Illinois and kill out your baby, come to
Illinois with kill them baby, That's what Pritzker's doing. He
was also bragging about how, yes, they're messing with Texas.
I really, I mean obviously, you guys know he's got
a desire to run for higher office than Oh my heavens.

(01:38:39):
I mean you know that he he wants to run
for office or for I think he wants he wants
to go for president. He is so divisive. And here's
another thing. I was having this conversation. What was I
having this with. It's irrelevant, but I was having this
conversation recently. He is not a likable guy. There is
an it's the amiable factor. Are they likable? It's one

(01:39:03):
of the reasons why so many people like Clinton because
he was amiable. Obama not so much, kind of but
not really. Biden not really. Hillary Clinton was one of
the most unlikable women ever, people like Margaret Thatch or
she was likable. She could you know, she was quick witted,
she could make a joke, she could hold her own
in a room, and you know, talk with everybody. That's

(01:39:25):
a quality that not everyone has. Al Gore didn't have it.
I remember reading Gosh. I remember I was in high school,
and I read a piece in Time magazine where some
people were wondering, like, yes, al Gore is young, and
well this is you know, this is like in the
nineties and late nineties. He's young, and yeah, he's a
good asset to Clinton, but is he actually mid nineties?
But is you know? They were talking about his likability factor,

(01:39:47):
and they brought that up because Hillary Clinton had stepped
in it because she insulted women by saying I don't
have time to stay home and bake cookies and have teas,
and everybody was mad at her, and then they were
looking at al Gore and al Gore is just not
a likable guy and his wife was not really a
likable lady. And that was the thing that they had
called into question, that likability factor. There are no Democrats

(01:40:08):
that have it. That is an issue that I think
is being very very very very underestimated in politics right now.
That's a deeper dive. Later on Today's stupidity came well,
this actually.

Speaker 7 (01:40:22):
Kind of points to your point, because Democrats are they're
a little arrogant, and uh, let's look in Chicago. Let's
take a look at this has cut sixteen Mayor Johnson
listen to what he says here.

Speaker 2 (01:40:35):
How did you.

Speaker 7 (01:40:35):
Feel when Donald Trump called your accountant?

Speaker 13 (01:40:38):
What did you feel?

Speaker 11 (01:40:39):
He just addressed this.

Speaker 4 (01:40:40):
Thanks, please answer that question if.

Speaker 18 (01:40:42):
You okay, fine, since you are begging, I do believe
that Donald Trump is intimidating. I know, I think interruption.
So let me just answer that. I do appreciate you begging.
So I would just say it like this, that the
President has always been intimidated by the intellectual prowess of
black men, and so of course he would speak in

(01:41:02):
those what uh.

Speaker 7 (01:41:05):
Criticizing you for inaction isn't the same thing as being racist.

Speaker 2 (01:41:10):
That's like saying you disagree with me. I'm a woman,
So you're a sexist because you just you don't get
to hide behind no no no, because no, no, no, because black.
You don't get to hide behind that. That's racist. Folks,
find a s over at substack, chapter and verse, like

be back behind the mic with you tomorrow.
