Dana Lashes of surd Truth podcast sponsoredby Keltech. Welcome back. Like I
said to the show, Dana Lash, here with you. So I did
ask you give me a break herefor one second. I did ask you
as uh, the issue with thepotatoes for Thanksgiving? Can we just talk
(00:22):
for a minute about how in myhouse it's a danaocracy when it comes to
starches. I know that this isAmerica and we're sell in the land of
plenty and we're celebrating with the feaston Thanksgiving. But for the love,
how many potato dishes does one need? So in my family because everybody's got
some people want two different but it'sa starch. How many starches you gonna
(00:45):
have? Gonna have the sweet potatocasserole? Right? So this is how
crazy it gets. Sweet potato casserole? Oh are you gonna have the baked
sweet potitle? What? Yeah,the baked sweet potato is some of the
butter in the cinnamon. That's basicallythe non sweet potato castles. These are
the conversations that I hear from peoplein my home. Mashed potatoes, that's
an that's that is like the onethat I'm like, there's no question because
(01:07):
you have to have a receptacle forthe gravy for your turkey. It's engineering.
Thanksgiving plate engineering is a thing.Then you have baked potato because somebody
wants a baked potato. I've literallywatched my stepdaddyat a baked potato and mashed
potatoes. He wanted both of them. It's the same thing in different form,
(01:27):
literally the same. And then thescalloped potatoes. Guys, we gotta
draw a line here. That isso many starches. I'm not even getting
into like the green bean castle role. I'm not even getting into the mac
and cheese because you gotta have mytees or the salad stuff. I'm not
even getting into all of this stuffthat is there has to be I get
(01:52):
it. It's the beautiful Irish fruit. But come on, there's gotta be
a line here. How many tatoesdo you get? The sweet potato actually
make more sense the yams, Likehistorically that makes more sense, right because
you gotta have if you have yoursweet potato casserole, then some people are
like, I gotta have the candiedyams that are like sliced up and then
glazed and all that. Then theyI mean, you could literally have it
(02:14):
a million different ways, Caine,how many starches, taties, tato dishes?
Two? See, that's what I'mtwo tops, you're you're you're pushing
it with me with two go overtoo. It's that's nuts kind of insane.
Yeah, thank you. But thenI have people are like, oh,
we don't have this potato dish asthey look at the sweet potato castle,
(02:36):
the mashed potatoes, the scalloped potatoes, the candied yams, like what,
oh, I thought we were gonnahave this potato dish. It's there's
all these potato dishes out here.Enjoy one of the four that have been
prepared. We don't eat six goae. It's making a mockery of Thanksgiving.
(03:00):
Stop it. Castle, massed potatoes, And if I was forced, I
would do scalloped scaloped potatoes. ButI ain't doing like for the people who
are pushing me about the candied yams. For the love, it's cut up,
damn sweet potato. It's just chunkedsweet potato. This castrole is mashed.
It's the same thing, the sameingredients, the same thing. You
(03:23):
don't need to I mean, Ionly got so much space in my oven.
You know what? I mean golllee. Someone said sweet mashed and
augroten are separate categories. We're gonnaignore you John on social media. We're
ignoring you. Oh it's like abig deal, right. I do enjoy
(03:46):
the twice baked potato. Stop it, you've never had that. Stop it.
We're not introducing that to this conversation. You get once baked, that's
it. What are you a hobbit? What about second breakfast? Holiday data?
Oh my gosh, I can't deal. Our friends have cal Tech the
(04:06):
sub two K. This is Celtiicmakes some very innovative stuff. If you
haven't had a chance to check outeverything that they everything that they offer,
they make some really cool stuff.And the Florida based company this this one's
for all of the hikers and thebackpackers and you know you people who like
to go climbing and camping and allthat stuff. The folds in half Celtech
(04:30):
Sub two K has been filling thatpistol caliber carbine gap and there's you know,
you have options for several popular magazines, Glocksmith and Weston six hour.
It's a lot easier to pack upand there's a lot less to take along
with you as a result. Sofrom right now until March of twenty twenty
four, Caltech is offering a onehundred dollars rebate program on any newly purchased
(04:53):
sub two K from a licensed dealer. So you buy a sub two k
H and you get a hundred dollars, which is actually pretty cool, and
that's you're saving some money. Sothat goes all the way up until March
of next year, that one hundreddollars rebate program on any newly purchased sub
two K. Now, if you'reunfamiliar with the sub two K, like
I said, this thing is awesome. It's you know, it's it folds
(05:14):
in half uh pistol caliber carbine anduh it's uh it's has a lot of
pistol magazine options nine millimeters forty company. It picks up where handguns leave off,
and it tucks away when you neededto. Sites are intuitive stocks,
adjustable field stripping, super easy.You can uh disassemble it for cleaning or
inspection without even using tools. Tolearn more about it, and that the
sub two K and that one hundreddollars rebate program, visit celtech weapons dot
(05:35):
com. That's K E L TE C Weapons dot Com tell them Dana,
sn't you I saw this thing?Or pull this out? Who was
it? THEO Vaughn? Who's funnyhe? They were they had this discussion
about Peloton that wanted to pull init. Can I just say I'm just
bringing this up because I hate Peloton. Can we talk about Peloton for a
(06:00):
minute. I hate Peloton to death. I am the stupid schmuck that ended
up getting one several years back.I hate it. I wish I could
blow the damn thing up. Ifit wasn't so heavy and awkward, I
would have literally thrown it to themoon. I hate Peloton, and I
think I hate the people on thePeloton even more when I'm on the exit.
(06:21):
What is this about community? Withdoing this stuff? Stop trying to
make everything community When you're sweaty andworking out, I don't want to be
buddies with you. I'm not thereto be buddies, whether it's in the
gym or virtually. No, Idon't give a rats ass about your best
time. I don't care. Arepeople that's starved for connection in life go
(06:43):
to church? Oh my gosh,everybody's thinking, oh are you gonna you
can? And then you can givesomebody fives or something. What if that
stuff? I don't care. Idon't want to be acknowledged, and I'm
not acknowledging you, right. Ihate I hate it even and I'm like
my oldest sudd will attest to this, so I I enjoy Chriss is a
(07:09):
crochet. I feel like it's almostinappropriate for a woman of my age to
say this, baby jen x Uh, and I play games, right,
I will play games. I'm acasual gamer. I'm not gonna be like
super serious. I'm not. Ijust enjoyed. It's fun. But I
hate it when they when when you'reforced to interact with people. He would
(07:31):
to go out in public and thepublic is there. It's like when I
started playing Dark Tid, I waslike, what the hell is this public
lobby? I just I don't wantto talk to people. I don't want
to tell you good game. Ijust want to go in and slay and
then be done with it, andyou know, like power up and kid
(07:51):
out. That's what I want todo. I don't anyway. My whole
point is I hate Peloton. Whyis Peloton being picky? Aren't they the
people who sale have been like inthe Crapper, the Peloton people, and
they decided to get all political.They got political at the BLM stuff,
and they got political with the RONAand all this other stuff. You're you
literally do digital biking? Well,I mean, I guess they have some
(08:16):
in in person studios. I don'tknow, man. I just I hate
it to death, and I thinkI hate I just hate bicycles. Been
bicycling? Oh to death? Okay, I hate it to death. The
only time it's appropriate is if you'reon a beach comber on vacation. That
(08:37):
or you're a toddler or a kid. That's it. I'm just I'm sorry
if you're into that, I'm not. I hate it. I hate it
so bad, I hate it todeath. I'm I'm just I have such
a hostile reaction to bicycle adults shouldnot. No, I tolerate it because
the law requires, but I hateit. And I'm looking at this thing
(09:01):
because it's in my bedroom, andit's like I'm trying to think of the
equivalent, right, what is theequivalent. It's like a golden calf in
my bedroom. I just want todestroy it. I see this thing,
and my husband's like, you willnot touch it. That was expensive,
so we just keep it hand clotheson it. I don't know what else
to do. I hate this thingso bad. I want to build a
(09:22):
trabue shad and put it into trabueshade and then fling it into the lake.
That's what I want to do.I've never hated an inanimate object as
much as I hate the peloton.It's stupid and the seat hurts. It
hurts you. And I don't likebeing trapped in a bike, like you
put the shoes on and it locksyou in the hell is that no?
(09:45):
Then you can't get away. It'sjust if something's coming to get you,
You're stuck. You're dead. Youare dead. I'm like, oh my
gosh, what happens if my houseblows up and I gotta get off this
bike? I hate it. Ihate it so bad, anyway, can
I just real quickly? Because Ihate I just I can't stand it.
And the virtue signaling made it worse. It really pushed it over the top
for me, the virtue signaling fromthat company. And then they're going to
(10:09):
sit here and like pick and choosewho they want to advertise with because of
politics. Good grief, give mea break. Everybody just you know what,
everybody needs a dictionary for Christmas.I see your all's posts. Every
people need a dictionary and they needto go to Hillsdale or just at least
take advantage of some of their onlineofferings that they make available to you for
(10:31):
free. So many colleges and universitiestoday are they just it's all about critical
race theory when really they should beabout critical thinking. That would be so
helpful, right, it's all aboutindoctrination. So over at Hillsdale if you're
unfamiliar, it's a small Christian,classical liberal arts college in southern Michigan that's
actually focused on something called academics superneat. I mean, it's like unheard
(10:52):
of now in today's environment. Youcan watch a short video that shows you
how Hillsdale's work is incredibly effective indefending American liberty, not just on the
Michigan and DC campuses, but acrossthe nation, and you can access it
at Daana four four Hillsdale dot com. See At Hillsdale, students are encouraged
to debate ideas openly and honestly andpursue truth together with their professions to study
(11:16):
America's great heritage of liberty and understandwhat is required, the type of education
required to preserve civil and religious liberties. That's their mission that they were founded
with in eighteen forty four. It'swhat they still do today. To learn
more about the mission of Hillsdale College, visit Dana four fr Hillsdale dot com.
That's Dana for Hillsdale dot com,Hillsdale College Developing Minds, Improving hearts,
(11:39):
and now all of the news youwould probably miss. It's time for
Dana's quick five man. Apple saucepouches are weird? Can I say it?
It's just weird? Man and nearAn NBC says nearly two dozen toddlers
have been sickened by lead linked toapplesauce pouches. Kids age one to three
were affected, and at least onechild should a blood lead level eight times
(12:01):
higher than that. Can I justcan I be real snotty for a second?
All these these these bees out herewho have been flipping out over that
stupid study about gas stoves where they'veturned on a gas oven legit, in
the middle of a room that hadno ventilation, nothing at all, and
they're like, oh my gosh,this is my house. Yeah, if
you live in a box that's sealedup, you don't have any even a
ventilation or anything. Anyway, they'veall been trying to like have a foulas
(12:24):
measuring contest online, trying to seewho loves their babies more because they can
preach more against gas stoves. Butthey're giving their kids lead pouches filled with
apple sauce. Shut up, anyway, moving on, They're warning there's they're
they're basically saying, lookout. It'swhat is it? The wana banana?
The hell is that when you haveto put I am fruit on the side
(12:45):
of the package, you ain't allright. Life expectancy for men in the
US falls to seventy three years,six years fewer than women, per News
study. This gut's be naggy todeath as a wife. It's w fruit.
As soon as you guys get comfortable, we're like, honey, can
you you know it's true? Themoment you settle down and that's in the
(13:05):
chair or the sofa, honey,can you you know it? You know
it's coming. Life expectancy so seventythree years that's actually really sad. It
was published in the Jamma Internal Medicine, The Life expectancy six years shorter than
that of women. They said thatthey think it's partially a consequence of over
a million Corona deaths that life expectancyhas declined, and also because dudes were
(13:33):
hit. Now remember this, dudeswere hit harder than women by the rona,
right, I mean that was oneof the things we all were kind
of like curious over, like howwas that possible? But so yeah,
they said that life expectancy countries Japan, Korea, Portugal, UK, Italy
all enjoy a life expectancy of eightyyears or more. Turkey and China also
(13:54):
fair I see you. No,No, I don't know. I don't
know if I believe anyone where theysay China they all fair better. I
do think that having living a sedentarylifestyle contributes to it, because you don't
want to turn into those people onWally that are sitting around and they're floating
chairs, right, and then likethey live their whole lives. You know,
they don't go out and touch grassbecause there isn't any So I mean
I think that there is something somethingto that, just you know, let's
(14:18):
see. Also media jobs slashed amidsoft ad market. Of course you knew
that that's one of the first thingsthat's cut when times get bad is ads.
So I don't want to hear anybodycomplain about sponsors because they help bring
you free radio and they help employpeople, and that's how we keep the
world going around. And that's alsothe first thing that's cut in a bad
economy. Also, scientists discovered whatthey say is of the first vampire virus.
(14:43):
Stop finding weird stuff and calling itscary things it's not. And parents
are fuming at because of after schoolDevil Club. No goats are going to
be sacrificed. And I think thatif you have I don't know, it's
just dumb. It just proof thatGod exists if you have to have a
Devil Club Boy cell phone. Staywith us. Now, speaking of ideological
predispositions, did you hear what happenedby the way the rally yesterday. I
(15:05):
mean it was really it was apeaceful rally. I mean it was you
know, handled wonderfully. A hugeI mean over two hundred and ninety thousand
people, But there were some otherswho really wanted to be there to add
to that two hundred and ninety thousandplus attendee number. But they were blocked,
(15:28):
they could not attend, and noone was giving them the straight story
until like yesterday evening, so busdrivers staged, according to the New York
Post, an intentional sick out.Three hundred Jewish people who were headed to
the rally in DC were left strandedby bus drivers that staged a deliberate walkout.
(15:56):
They said that they were stuck atDullah for eleven hours before they were
sent back home. They all threehundred people got together and chartered a flight
which actually would put the price perseed about what you would expect for a
regular, average commercial flight, honestly, And then they were sent back home
because they missed the entire event becausebus drivers walked out so they didn't have
(16:19):
to take them. There's three planesout of Detroit chartered by the Jewish Federation
of Detroit. They booked several busesto transport the whole group to the National
Mall. A third of the passengersweren't allowed to leave the tarmac. But
then none of the buses showed upfor the ten thirty am pickup, and
(16:41):
it was because they learned that therewas a deliberate walk off of drivers that
was in response to that rally.That's wow. And you can't if you're
on a chartered flight, you comein on a different tarmac, you have
(17:02):
to have uh pre or for biggroups like this, they they require you
to have transportation off the tarmac.And they weren't. They had to,
they couldn't get they had no busesto get on. So that's that's unbelievable.
And they said that, Yeah,they waited for about eleven hours.
(17:22):
Eleven hours, and they kept gettingdifferent stories like, oh, they're struggling
to get through security, or they'restruggling. No, no, no,
just because they staged. They hadstaged a walkout or a sickout. They
had an intentional stick stick out.And they weren't the only ones. They
were people in Connecticut who had charteredbuses to go to the rally who were
(17:42):
also left without drivers. Uh.They ended up getting a bunch of cars
and drove instead. Now I wouldimagine if management, I well, first
off, I think every single oneof these drivers that did this should be
fired because it's in subordination at numberone, number two, the company,
if management, if this was amanagement, if if they can prove that
(18:03):
the company or management or anybody signedoff on this then the whole damn company
could be in trouble because this wouldbe classified as discrimination. And the and
the left used to champion these laws, and apparently they want to flop,
they want to flap them. Imean, there's there's there's a whole thing.
Let me pull this up. Imean public transit workers. I mean,
(18:26):
go back to Reagan. There's areason. There's a whole history about
public transit worker, transit workers andUH strikes and and what you can and
can't do. But this was nota UH something that the drivers did that
just happened to coincide with some kindof contract negotiation that had nothing to do
with that. There was no negotiation. This was them staging a sick out
(18:48):
just to target Jewish customers. That'swhat this was. And that's that's pretty
anti semitic because that has nothing todo with you just dislike net and Yahoo
or you dislike you know how theIsraeli government might be handling X, Y
and Z. You're just literally refusingto drive Jewish people because they're Jewish.
(19:12):
That is anti semitism. That's antisemitic. I think every damn one of
these workers should be they're making theirnames public and fire them. That's what
I would do. Firing a company. I'd be slapping your name up on
posters and be like, I'm firingthese people because they're Nazis, and I
would just legit put it up publicly. Hey, you know what, free,
free free market, right, freeworld. That's just sad. They
(19:37):
couldn't even drive the bus, butthat's what they so will. I mean,
I'm sure that they'll be follow upto it, but I just can't.
But that is that is anti Semitismthat goes beyond just disagree. It's
about disagreeing with a a governing styleor a politician that is targeting people because
(19:57):
of who they are and what theybelieve. Thanks for tuning in to today's

I will play games. I'm acasual gamer. I'm not gonna be like
super serious. I'm not. Ijust enjoyed. It's fun. But I
hate it when they when when you'reforced to interact with people. He would
(07:31):
to go out in public and thepublic is there. It's like when I
started playing Dark Tid, I waslike, what the hell is this public
lobby? I just I don't wantto talk to people. I don't want
to tell you good game. Ijust want to go in and slay and
then be done with it, andyou know, like power up and kid
(07:51):
out. That's what I want todo. I don't anyway. My whole
point is I hate Peloton. Whyis Peloton being picky? Aren't they the
people who sale have been like inthe Crapper, the Peloton people, and
they decided to get all political.They got political at the BLM stuff,
and they got political with the RONAand all this other stuff. You're you
literally do digital biking? Well,I mean, I guess they have some
(08:16):
in in person studios. I don'tknow, man. I just I hate
it to death, and I thinkI hate I just hate bicycles. Been
bicycling? Oh to death? Okay, I hate it to death. The
only time it's appropriate is if you'reon a beach comber on vacation. That
(08:37):
or you're a toddler or a kid. That's it. I'm just I'm sorry
if you're into that, I'm not. I hate it. I hate it
so bad, I hate it todeath. I'm I'm just I have such
a hostile reaction to bicycle adults shouldnot. No, I tolerate it because
the law requires, but I hateit. And I'm looking at this thing
(09:01):
because it's in my bedroom, andit's like I'm trying to think of the
equivalent, right, what is theequivalent. It's like a golden calf in
my bedroom. I just want todestroy it. I see this thing,
and my husband's like, you willnot touch it. That was expensive,
so we just keep it hand clotheson it. I don't know what else
to do. I hate this thingso bad. I want to build a
(09:22):
trabue shad and put it into trabueshade and then fling it into the lake.
That's what I want to do.I've never hated an inanimate object as
much as I hate the peloton.It's stupid and the seat hurts. It
hurts you. And I don't likebeing trapped in a bike, like you
put the shoes on and it locksyou in the hell is that no?
(09:45):
Then you can't get away. It'sjust if something's coming to get you,
You're stuck. You're dead. Youare dead. I'm like, oh my
gosh, what happens if my houseblows up and I gotta get off this
bike? I hate it. Ihate it so bad, anyway, can
I just real quickly? Because Ihate I just I can't stand it.
And the virtue signaling made it worse. It really pushed it over the top
for me, the virtue signaling fromthat company. And then they're going to
(10:09):
sit here and like pick and choosewho they want to advertise with because of
politics. Good grief, give mea break. Everybody just you know what,
everybody needs a dictionary for Christmas.I see your all's posts. Every
people need a dictionary and they needto go to Hillsdale or just at least
take advantage of some of their onlineofferings that they make available to you for
(10:31):
free. So many colleges and universitiestoday are they just it's all about critical
race theory when really they should beabout critical thinking. That would be so
helpful, right, it's all aboutindoctrination. So over at Hillsdale if you're
unfamiliar, it's a small Christian,classical liberal arts college in southern Michigan that's
actually focused on something called academics superneat. I mean, it's like unheard
(10:52):
of now in today's environment. Youcan watch a short video that shows you
how Hillsdale's work is incredibly effective indefending American liberty, not just on the
Michigan and DC campuses, but acrossthe nation, and you can access it
at Daana four four Hillsdale dot com. See At Hillsdale, students are encouraged
to debate ideas openly and honestly andpursue truth together with their professions to study
(11:16):
America's great heritage of liberty and understandwhat is required, the type of education
required to preserve civil and religious liberties. That's their mission that they were founded
with in eighteen forty four. It'swhat they still do today. To learn
more about the mission of Hillsdale College, visit Dana four fr Hillsdale dot com.
That's Dana for Hillsdale dot com,Hillsdale College Developing Minds, Improving hearts,
(11:39):
and now all of the news youwould probably miss. It's time for
Dana's quick five man. Apple saucepouches are weird? Can I say it?
It's just weird? Man and nearAn NBC says nearly two dozen toddlers
have been sickened by lead linked toapplesauce pouches. Kids age one to three
were affected, and at least onechild should a blood lead level eight times
(12:01):
higher than that. Can I justcan I be real snotty for a second?
All these these these bees out herewho have been flipping out over that
stupid study about gas stoves where they'veturned on a gas oven legit, in
the middle of a room that hadno ventilation, nothing at all, and
they're like, oh my gosh,this is my house. Yeah, if
you live in a box that's sealedup, you don't have any even a
ventilation or anything. Anyway, they'veall been trying to like have a foulas
(12:24):
measuring contest online, trying to seewho loves their babies more because they can
preach more against gas stoves. Butthey're giving their kids lead pouches filled with
apple sauce. Shut up, anyway, moving on, They're warning there's they're
they're basically saying, lookout. It'swhat is it? The wana banana?
The hell is that when you haveto put I am fruit on the side
(12:45):
of the package, you ain't allright. Life expectancy for men in the
US falls to seventy three years,six years fewer than women, per News
study. This gut's be naggy todeath as a wife. It's w fruit.
As soon as you guys get comfortable, we're like, honey, can
you you know it's true? Themoment you settle down and that's in the
(13:05):
chair or the sofa, honey,can you you know it? You know
it's coming. Life expectancy so seventythree years that's actually really sad. It
was published in the Jamma Internal Medicine, The Life expectancy six years shorter than
that of women. They said thatthey think it's partially a consequence of over
a million Corona deaths that life expectancyhas declined, and also because dudes were
(13:33):
hit. Now remember this, dudeswere hit harder than women by the rona,
right, I mean that was oneof the things we all were kind
of like curious over, like howwas that possible? But so yeah,
they said that life expectancy countries Japan, Korea, Portugal, UK, Italy
all enjoy a life expectancy of eightyyears or more. Turkey and China also
(13:54):
fair I see you. No,No, I don't know. I don't
know if I believe anyone where theysay China they all fair better. I
do think that having living a sedentarylifestyle contributes to it, because you don't
want to turn into those people onWally that are sitting around and they're floating
chairs, right, and then likethey live their whole lives. You know,
they don't go out and touch grassbecause there isn't any So I mean
I think that there is something somethingto that, just you know, let's
(14:18):
see. Also media jobs slashed amidsoft ad market. Of course you knew
that that's one of the first thingsthat's cut when times get bad is ads.
So I don't want to hear anybodycomplain about sponsors because they help bring
you free radio and they help employpeople, and that's how we keep the
world going around. And that's alsothe first thing that's cut in a bad
economy. Also, scientists discovered whatthey say is of the first vampire virus.
(14:43):
Stop finding weird stuff and calling itscary things it's not. And parents
are fuming at because of after schoolDevil Club. No goats are going to
be sacrificed. And I think thatif you have I don't know, it's
just dumb. It just proof thatGod exists if you have to have a
Devil Club Boy cell phone. Staywith us. Now, speaking of ideological
predispositions, did you hear what happenedby the way the rally yesterday. I
(15:05):
mean it was really it was apeaceful rally. I mean it was you
know, handled wonderfully. A hugeI mean over two hundred and ninety thousand
people, But there were some otherswho really wanted to be there to add
to that two hundred and ninety thousandplus attendee number. But they were blocked,
(15:28):
they could not attend, and noone was giving them the straight story
until like yesterday evening, so busdrivers staged, according to the New York
Post, an intentional sick out.Three hundred Jewish people who were headed to
the rally in DC were left strandedby bus drivers that staged a deliberate walkout.
(15:56):
They said that they were stuck atDullah for eleven hours before they were
sent back home. They all threehundred people got together and chartered a flight
which actually would put the price perseed about what you would expect for a
regular, average commercial flight, honestly, And then they were sent back home
because they missed the entire event becausebus drivers walked out so they didn't have
(16:19):
to take them. There's three planesout of Detroit chartered by the Jewish Federation
of Detroit. They booked several busesto transport the whole group to the National
Mall. A third of the passengersweren't allowed to leave the tarmac. But
then none of the buses showed upfor the ten thirty am pickup, and
(16:41):
it was because they learned that therewas a deliberate walk off of drivers that
was in response to that rally.That's wow. And you can't if you're
on a chartered flight, you comein on a different tarmac, you have
(17:02):
to have uh pre or for biggroups like this, they they require you
to have transportation off the tarmac.And they weren't. They had to,
they couldn't get they had no busesto get on. So that's that's unbelievable.
And they said that, Yeah,they waited for about eleven hours.
(17:22):
Eleven hours, and they kept gettingdifferent stories like, oh, they're struggling
to get through security, or they'restruggling. No, no, no,
just because they staged. They hadstaged a walkout or a sickout. They
had an intentional stick stick out.And they weren't the only ones. They
were people in Connecticut who had charteredbuses to go to the rally who were
(17:42):
also left without drivers. Uh.They ended up getting a bunch of cars
and drove instead. Now I wouldimagine if management, I well, first
off, I think every single oneof these drivers that did this should be
fired because it's in subordination at numberone, number two, the company,
if management, if this was amanagement, if if they can prove that
(18:03):
the company or management or anybody signedoff on this then the whole damn company
could be in trouble because this wouldbe classified as discrimination. And the and
the left used to champion these laws, and apparently they want to flop,
they want to flap them. Imean, there's there's there's a whole thing.
Let me pull this up. Imean public transit workers. I mean,
(18:26):
go back to Reagan. There's areason. There's a whole history about
public transit worker, transit workers andUH strikes and and what you can and
can't do. But this was nota UH something that the drivers did that
just happened to coincide with some kindof contract negotiation that had nothing to do
with that. There was no negotiation. This was them staging a sick out
(18:48):
just to target Jewish customers. That'swhat this was. And that's that's pretty
anti semitic because that has nothing todo with you just dislike net and Yahoo
or you dislike you know how theIsraeli government might be handling X, Y
and Z. You're just literally refusingto drive Jewish people because they're Jewish.
(19:12):
That is anti semitism. That's antisemitic. I think every damn one of
these workers should be they're making theirnames public and fire them. That's what
I would do. Firing a company. I'd be slapping your name up on
posters and be like, I'm firingthese people because they're Nazis, and I
would just legit put it up publicly. Hey, you know what, free,
free free market, right, freeworld. That's just sad. They
(19:37):
couldn't even drive the bus, butthat's what they so will. I mean,
I'm sure that they'll be follow upto it, but I just can't.
But that is that is anti Semitismthat goes beyond just disagree. It's
about disagreeing with a a governing styleor a politician that is targeting people because
(19:57):
of who they are and what theybelieve. Thanks for tuning in to today's
