So, first of all, thesecretary's recovering. Well, we don't have
a date yet in terms of whenhe'll be released from the hospital. Of
course, we'll keep folks updated.But he's been actively engaged in overseeing and
directing the strikes that we saw lastnight on Tuesday, when the Houthis were
conducting their complex attack. He wasparticipating in a meeting with the Chairman and

(00:23):
the Sincom commander to monitor those thatactivity. Was he though, so he
was leading from his hospital, Butthat's what we're supposed to believe from John
Kirby, that he was at LloydAustin. We've been having this big discussion,
you know, about Lloyd Austin andwhether or not he's actually up to
the job, whether he's you know, I mean, he's This is what

(00:45):
we're talking about. This is whyit's so important to make sure that the
people who are in these jobs areactually like they're there and they're they're doing
the job, because stuff like thisgoes down and got lee. Just the
timing of this, the timing ofthis happening right as we've been having this
major debate about Lloyd Austin and apparentlyhow people in uh the administration didn't realize

(01:10):
that you're supposed to tell people ifyou're out sick, or even even if
it is first you know, whateverit is, surgery or whatever that you're
you're kind of supposed to tell them. That's a big that's a big deal.
So everything, we're gonna break downwhat happened last night and all that
good stuff, and it's good grief. It's world. I saw World War
three trending, and I saw abunch of other stupid commentary trending too,

(01:34):
So welcome to the show, DanaLash here with you. And it's the
top of this first hour on atoo cold to live day. I maintain
that it's too damn cold to live. Stop it. I'm gonna you guys
are gonna indulge me because I'm gonnaat least complain for sixty seconds about the

(01:55):
weather coming up, because I can'tguys, this thirty four degrees last night.
I don't even have this e totalnecks. I don't even know what
the hell people in iowaould do.I mean, I gotta have my net
covered. It's called all right.So first up the uh, because we
got stuff going on at the border, We got stuff going on with Yemen.
So this is basically what happened.I'll dive it deeper into it,
but let me because I want totalk about the domestic stuff. But let

(02:16):
me just lay it down very quickly. So what ended up happening. So
you have going into the Red Seathere right, you have, you have
Saudi Arabia, you have Egypt,you have Yemen and a part of Yemen
there you are. It's basically controlledby well it is, it's not basically
it's controlled by the Houthis. Yemenhas been having a civil war. Uh,
it's you know, Steven Yates hasbeen warning us that it's gonna pop

(02:38):
off here, y'all better be watchingYemen. Yemen. You know it's gonna
be you know the place where Chandlerbing went and friends. It's gonna be
popping off. So the Houthis,they've been in a civil war there.
The Houthis are a terrorist group thatare backed by Iran. They're completely subsidized
by Iran. And ever since theresponse to the terrorist attack upon them Israel,

(03:02):
ever since they retaliated, ever sincethey responded by going into Gaza,
you've seen an uptick in activity fromHezbolah to the north, so that's towards
Lebanon and Hesbelah is also a littlesatellite group of Iran, a terrorist group
like the Huthis, just in adifferent location that's entirely empowered by Iran.

(03:25):
They they financed them, they everything, So they've got this. It's this
two pronged attack against Israel. Thisis all increased in response to normalized relations
between Israel and a number of Arabstates, including UAE and others, and

(03:46):
even to the extent the Saudis,who have indicated and did so as recently
as late last year, that theywould even be interested in perhaps signing the
Abraham Accords. So this is gettinginto blaming a little bit. The increase
the escalation here Now the Red Sea. You have the Suez Canal, and

(04:09):
that's the area right there at thenortheastern corner of Egypt. The Suez Canal
one of the most important trading shippingpassages in the world because it goes into
the Mediterranean and that area. Whenyou go through there and you go into
the Red Sea, then you start. You gotta pass Yemen, you gotta

(04:30):
go past the Houthis, and theHoothies act like they own the entirety of
the Red Sea, the Arabian Sea, all the seas. They act like
it's all theirs, and so theyhave determined. Now, this is the
propped up, stupid puppet argument thatpeople are using online and people are using
on MSNBC. Their argument is thatsince the United States, since the United

(04:55):
States has gone into or backed Israel, and since Israel has gone into Gaza,
that Israel is carrying out genocide.And they claim that Israel has blocked
all AID going into Gaza. Now, keep in mind since literally two thousand
and five when they unilaterally gave upGaza to Hamas, which is also a

(05:17):
terrorist group, and also back byIran when they gave up Gaza to Hamas
for them to create their own littlenation state. Since Palestine is a fictional
place for a fictional people that hasnever existed at all whatsoever in all of
antiquity and is unsupported by everything fromthe Quran to the Bible. That being
said, they've claimed they it's beingclaimed that they've been blocking They've sent aid

(05:41):
regularly, their hospitals regularly treat Gazan, so it's just a lie. They
just want to do terrast stuff.So their argument is that because Israel has
blocked AID from going into Gaza,they're going to block shipping going through these
very important passageways red Sea out intoyou know, the Arabians, out into

(06:02):
the ocean. They're they're gonna they'regonna block very important shipping passages. They're
gonna block these these these transit areas. And they said they don't care if
it affects everybody, because they saideverybody is essentially culpable. Whatever. It's
Barbary pirates two point zero. Imean, that's if you want to just
distill it down, it is theBarbary Pirates two point oh. Everybody remembers

(06:23):
the Barbary Pirates, right, everybodyremembers why the the the I mean,
really, we had our military created, so this this is what the and
they've been carrying out and I'm pullingmy notes up on this. So they've
been carrying out attacks against Uh,they've been attacking all manner of merchant ships.

(06:43):
They've I mean, some of thestrikes that they've card they've been targeting
our our soldiers. They've been targetingmerchant ships. Uh, I mean the
New York Times, I mean,this is crazy. Who are the Hoothies
and why is the US attacking them? But I mean the way that they
put this is so stupid. Imean, for actually several years now,
the Hoothies have been just without anykind of recourse. They've been attacking our

(07:04):
soldiers. They've been attacking merchant vessels. You've heard whenever I've brought up in
quick five drone attacks or things likethis in the Red Sea, that's been
the Hoothy's. It's always been theHouthis. And finally, after they've attacked
a number of important merchant ships andhave taken they've they've taken Japanese tankers,
they've they've targeted everybody. Finally,it was the United States and the UK

(07:26):
that launched a retaliatory strike against theHuthie. Now I could potentially, and
I agree with ship Roy, Icould potentially be for this because it's very
it's barbary pirates two point zero.They're trying to disrupt the international economy.
This is this is economic and uhreally free movement terrorism. I don't know

(07:48):
how to describe it, but it'sit's it's an active terror and it does
affect everybody. It's gonna affect yourenergy prices. Think, I mean,
think all the oil and gas nationsand think of the importance that the Suez
and those other passageways are two energy. Now you get my point. So
I don't and as someone who hateswar ink and doesn't like a military escalation,

(08:11):
I do see the importance of atleast to us, because I'm very
selfish, and I look at itAmerica first, I do see the importance
of maintaining that open and free passagein that area. And I also dispute
the hoothy claim that they have everyright to sit here and control this area.
Now some people are saying, oh, well, it's Yemen's area,

(08:33):
and Yemen has every right. Theyshare that water away with Egypt and the
Horn of Africa, Somalia, theyin Ethiopia, they share, they share
that waterway. That waterway is notentirely theirs. So if you, I
mean, anybody can go. Andit's the kind of stupid because I saw

(08:54):
that argument being made all yesterday andthey're like, oh, Yemen and the
houthis essentially they have every right tocontrol who's going there. Well, when
you look at it, I meanYemen's right at the very end of the
corner they're right up. I meanyou you you share it with Egypt,
you share it with a couple ofother nations. So to act like it's
you know, it's just their waterwayis stupid. You share it with Somalia

(09:16):
and Ethiopia. So that's and yougot your booty over there going into the
Gulf of Aid and out of theRed Sea. So that little passageway we're
at bottlenecks there, that's not theyhave to share that. So no,
that argument. I reject that argument. And with the Huthi there and that's
part of the area that they controllaunching these attacks, I mean, it

(09:37):
is, it's it's it's a threat. And so it like I said,
this is like the Barbary War.This is like when Jefferson sent people over
to Morocco and Algeria because they hadremember they had captured sailors, et cetera,
et cetera. So this is kindof like it's very similar. Now,
then we get into the big debatethat broke out over the response,

(10:00):
right, and we immediately our firstrecourse, and I still haven't yet moved
on from it, is to claim, well, remember they said under the
previous administration that we were just goingto be in wars and now look at
Biden. Now we're in wars becauseof him. The response that they that
the United States and the UK hadI have a couple of different questions.

(10:22):
First off, where Saudi Arabia andthis where's Arably? Where are these other
Arab nations? Because it actually isis. I don't want to fight Saudi
Arabia's war against Iran. I don'twant to be used as a pawn for
the Saudis against Iran. Saudi Arabiaand Iran hate each other. They've always
hated each other. This has beenjust a giant, like a giant power

(10:46):
struggle between these two entities. Idon't want the United States to essentially be
an army for hire for Saudi Arabiaagainst Iran. So my question is where
Saudi Arabia in this the countries thatI just mentioned are where these oil rich
Arab nations that should be policing this. This is their backyard and these are
their neighbors, they border them.So that's the first question. The second

(11:07):
question, this relates to the WarPowers Act. And there's been a lot
of debate over the War Powers Actbecause the first question, you may ask
with regards to the United States inthe UK launching a strike coordinated strike is
okay? Well, under whose authority? Now, the War Powers Act does
allow for certain things, because youknow, I agree this is only Congress

(11:33):
can declare war and Congress, nomatter what, still has to weigh in
and be able to make determinations aboutmilitary action. And so this is a
federal statute. It's fifty USC.Sub Section fifteen forty one, and the
President can't take military action for anyreason. You have to have congressional approval.

(11:56):
Congress has to be notified within fortyeight hours, and then they all
have to work together. So hecan't really act unilaterally. So now it
is is he working with Congress?Is he talking to Congress about this?
I mean, because this has beenthis has been defensive military action, and
he can't take defensive action. TheWar Power Statue does allow for that with
a caveat. So that's the caveat, and that's what the Framers were debating

(12:20):
about during the convention. So thisis they said that he should have the
power to repel sudden attacks, butbeyond that it has to have congressional approval.
So you could argue that these attackson ships and our sailors and our
forces in the area. You couldargue, and I'm not saying I agree

(12:41):
with it or not, but I'mtelling you this is what the legal forces.
You could argue that it satisfies thatone singular statutory requirement, but beyond
that he would be in violation ofhis oath of office because there is an
absence of congressional approval. So that'swhat a lot of the debate is about.
It doesn't the war powers. Thatdoesn't grant him any new magical authority

(13:03):
under any other condition except to repeldefensively an attack. And you could make
that argument with the who these inour presence? There, I get it.
But what does this mean now?Because this is an escalation? Now,
there was a warning that well maybeHesbela is going to start targeting other
forces. Maybe we're going to seesome kind of escalation from Hesbla and Lebanon.
So what it's going to be,I don't know. Hell, maybe

(13:26):
it's not even there. Maybe it'sat the southern border because we've had so
many people crossover, which brings meto my next thing. I'm sure you've
seen the National Guard repelling speaking ofrepelling the border patrol out of a park.
We're going to talk about all ofthat coming up, because there have
been so many people that have comeacross the border and there's been such a
lack of oversight. I mean,you really don't need to wait and see

(13:46):
what the response is going to beover in the Middle East, because it
could be right here at our southernborder or somewhere else in the interior of
the United States. So we gota lot to get into. We're going
to talk about all of that.We're going to get into some of the
latest of twenty twenty four. Idon't really think cold an excuse for people
in Iowa because they're used to it. So we're going to get into all
of that. So you don't wantto miss It's a very, very busy

Dana's quickfive. So Hertz is sellingtwenty thousand electric vehicles to buy gasoline cars
and set instead. I don't know. I could not have predicted this.

(15:58):
I am much shy. I amso surprised. Oh my gosh. Can't
you hear the absolute shock in myvoice. They said that they made a
big push to ev but nobody wantsthem, so they're selling twenty thousand.
Be okay, sidebar. I knowit's headlines and I'm supposed to go through
it. But when I had totake my car in and they gave me
an ev lonert, I've never wantedto wreck a car so bad in my

(16:22):
life. I've never wanted to drivea car off a bridge so bad in
my life because all of the gaslighting about Green makes me hate them.
And it's a gadget. I likegadgets. I don't want to hate gadgets.
I don't want to hate a gadgets, a giant gadget. So it
makes me even matter soon. WhatI'm saying anyway, so it hurts,
is like, Okay, we gotproblems. We gotta get rid of these.

Prince Harry, that stupid ginger welfaregrifter who's out there in California with
his dalist suitcase game show wife.So they literally were trying to say that
he's a living legend of aviation insome stupid probably pay to play. I'm
absolutely no doubt he got they gotpaid to get in this. There's some
sort of award ceremony hosted by JohnTravolta and Beverly Hills next week where he's

Dana's Absurd Truth podcast posted daily fromThe Dana Show. And we need immigrants
in this country. Forget the factthat the farm that our vegetables would rot
in the ground if it weren't ifthey weren't being picked by many immigrants,

(19:21):
many illegal immigrants. The fact isthat the birth rate in this country,
oh is way below replacement level.My gosh, this is Jerry Nadler,
who I thought that this was ajoke when I first saw this this audio,
I actually for real dead and Ithought that that's real. After I

(19:45):
realized it was, that's a realaudio clip. This Jerry Nadler, who's
sitting there in the house saying that, and they're arguing over the spinning bell
saying that, well, you know, we wouldn't we would Our vegetables were
what would rot in the ground ifwe didn't have immigrants there to pick them.
Welcome back to the show, Danalast year with you bottom of this

(20:07):
first hour. This this is crazy. I am has he ever eaten a
vegetable? Being potato shape does notcount? Has he actually eaten a vegetable?
I got some questions because that's butyou know, I was thinking about

(20:30):
this. So back in the dayyou had I mean really and it was
really promoted by Democrats. Then well, and what became the modern day Democrat
Party. You had people in theUnited States that purchased humans from human traffickers

(20:56):
in Africa who kidnapped them from homes, brought them to the United States and
had them pick cotton and vegetables.And here today you have Democrats like Jerry
Nadler who are all for acquiring peoplefrom human traffickers south of the border to

(21:19):
come to the United States and pickvegetables. Wow, nothing really changes,
just the white hoods come off prettyamazing. Same thing. Good grief.
Why has there been And notice howyou have not heard a peep about this.

(21:40):
You haven't heard a thing. ButMarjorie Taylor Green, during a discussion
about whether or not Hunter Biden actuallymade used money that he got from Bearisma
and China to purchase hookers in blowand shows the evidence of his purchases that
he posted online. That's that getsof headlines this. They all look the

(22:03):
other way because they all sanction it. That's what Democrats don't want to tell
you, because see, if youhave legal to support legal immigration and to
encourage legal immigration and to make iteasier for people who want to chase that
animating spirit of liberty and be Americansand have them come through, they don't

(22:26):
like that. I really honestly feelin my heart that Democrats reject that in
favor of illegal immigration, because legalimmigration is an equalizer. You come to
the United States, you're an American, you become a You're an American just
like US. Illegal immigration gives themsomething to hold over people, can you
I mean, I cannot unpack thatstatement any other way. They feel like

(22:48):
they're doing they need a do gooderthing. It's hurt and rescue. By
making it harder for people to comein and encouraging illegal entry, they get
to act like they have a cause. I mean, it is racist as
hell. That's crazy. I can't. I mean, this was not an
old flashback video that I played foryou. That's not old, and it's

(23:11):
not unique either. Case in point, there's one from Nancy Pelosi where's it
at? Should be right by herewhere she said the exact same thing,
the exact same thing flashback. Listento this. This is crazy. This
is audio sound bite three. Wehave a shortage of workers in our country,

(23:34):
and you see even in Florida someof the farmers in the grower saying,
why are you shipping these immigrants upnorth? We need them to pick
the crops down here? Do yousee this? This is not just one.
There's other audio of different lawmakers thatsay the same kind of thing.
Cane's over here dying, Are youokay? Someone gonna get hit? How

(24:03):
is this not like if a Republicansaid anything close to this? Because they
don't care that they don't care.The double standard is so obvious. These
people are like, well, yeah, we like you know why, because
Democrats they want cheap labor. Theywant to live the life and act like
they're still on some kind of plantation, but they don't want to pay for
it. They don't want true equalitybecause they need people to come into the

(24:27):
country so that they can subjugate themand they can have them as like,
to create this entire other class ofpeople that they feel like they can be
superior to. They don't want tohave to actually deal with equality and deal
with like, you know, payingpeople what they deserve and treating them as
like actual fellow citizens. I mean, hell no, they don't want to
deal with that. That's why theyencourage these policies. They're flirting around with

(24:49):
this still after all this time.Good grief, it's not unique to this
party. They don't care. Haveyou seen them anymore at the border taking
pictures. No, they're not goingto the border anymore because they see they
wanted to go to the border toact like that people people were just rounding

(25:10):
up kids and putting them in cages. They're not going to the border now
because they don't want to draw attentionto the fact that it is a flood
it's a deluge coming across the border. They don't want to have to deal
with that. They don't want tohave to explain that to people in their
districts. They don't want to drawany more attention to it. If they

(25:30):
really cared, they'd be down thereand it wouldn't matter. But the way
it is, they don't want todraw attention to it. So this is
what happened. Abbott seized all ofthe city properly along property along the riverfront
and Eagle Pass. He used hisemergency powers and seized city property right there.
I first saw this from a BillMalugin and Ali Bradley last night.

(25:52):
They said that the state seized allthe property and that includes the federal processing
locations and equipment, and that thestate is going to arrest everyone who crosses
and charge them with criminal trespass.And they've been arresting for criminal trespass for
months, they said. Texas viathe Governor's office, is holding the line

(26:15):
at the southern border miles of additionalrazor wire anti climb barriers to deter and
repel the record high, and byrecord high, that was two hundred ninety
thousand plus people who entered the countryillegally in the month of December of twenty
twenty three alone, and they saidthat the Biden administration has allowed for unfettered

(26:37):
access to cartels. Yeah, youknow what's happening down in Ecuador. Hell,
I'm not so this. This policyfrom the Biden administration funds it.
Now. The mayor Rolando Salinas wasnotified by DPS and they said that they
didn't necessarily think that that was thebest way to go. Now, Eagle

(26:57):
Pass mayor is a Democrat and he'sbeen blasting the administration. There is no
other way to go. You can'ttriangulate this, dude, hold your line.
You've been a strong critic of whatthis policy has done to your town.
You got to hold the line now. Now the crossing at the border,

(27:22):
I gotten too. Uh. Iwas having a discussion with someone who
thinks that everything is and I'm justgonna say, they think that everything is
about Donald Trump. They think thatany kind of comment you make about immigration
is about I mean, just gottlead people. I just need people to
just get off. I just Ican't. This is a problem that Republicans
and Democrats have created going for decadesnow, decades and Sadly, people at

(27:49):
the border have had to deal withit. Texans have had to deal with
it, Arizonas have had to dealwith that. Border states have had to
deal with it. It's not aboutTrump because someone was like, oh,
the problem with the border went awayunder him. Hell no, it didn't.
It absolutely did not. Was therewere there was there a different policy,
yes, but it takes more thanjust a couple of executive orders.

(28:11):
You didn't get anything funded, therewas nothing that got pushed through legislatively.
You got some weak sauce stuff.Because again, this is a problem that
predates Trump. This is Democrats andRepublicans. Don't sit your neck like it
got better just because this has nothingto do with him. This is a
problem both parties have created and nowit's it's just completely out of control.

(28:32):
But this situation, this this movethat Abbott has made and for eagle Pass
as mayor, I don't know why. I'm just trying to figure out because
from everything that I hear from EaglePass, the people are livid. They
want something done. They don't evencare about Democrat Republican anymore. I mean,

(28:53):
they just don't even care. Butthe problem getting solved, and whoever
it's by that's the only thing thatthat that they're concerned with. I mean,
I'm just looking at some of thenumbers. Golly, it's still going
to be crazy. Just this month. It's gonna it's they're predicting it's gonna

(29:15):
be nuts again. Bill Malugin saidthat there was an overnight DJ filing.
He reported the FEDS confirmed that theTexas National Guard deployed armed soldiers and vehicles
to block the federal government from accessingthe river in Eagle Pass. They said
no Border Patrol agents are allowed toenter Shelby Park in any operational capacity.
And that's because remember border patrol wastold to cut all the razor wire and
remove all of the deterrents and tofacilitate the illegal entry. This is going

(29:41):
to be a huge state versus federalgovernment fight, a big fight, big
fight, and it's i mean,finally it's going to happen. But this
is this is the area where andwe played some of that video where they
had Border patrol cutting the razor wire. You remember seeing all this they were

(30:03):
they were cutting the wire and openingit up and allowing people to come through,
literally holding it back and waving peoplethrough and so there's video out that
Malusian's crew has. They were therethis morning when they started it, when
they started bringing in the Guard andwere blocking entry. They said that they're

(30:26):
they're dealing with because you got morewhat's the other caravan coming up? There's
isn't there another bigger caravan coming upalready? And they said they're just trying
to get a handle on it becausethey can't. They can't get a handle
on it anymore. So Border PatrolUnion confirmed that agents were being blocked by
Texas soldiers. Border Patrol Union's praisingAbbot for it. They're not mad.
Don't think that this is a fightbetween Texas UH Guard and the Border Patrol.

(30:52):
It's not. Border Patrol's like,finally this is good and you have
more care. There's at least twoother caravans of multi thousand strong coming through.
That's not even including what's going onin Ecuador, where the cartels have
taken over. There's a coup.Cartels are fighting and trying to take over
the government in the whole entire countryand they've declared a state of civil war.

(31:17):
PERUS declared a state a national emergencybecause of the violence on the border
with Ecuador. So but this isa tenth Amendment enforcement. And yes,
we do have a Texas Military Departmentbecause yes, Texas is the is the
only state in the Union that's onmilitary. So yes, very interesting.

(31:40):
Now I'm sure that there's going tobe a lot of legal saber rattling from
the DOJ, but honestly, atthis point, I'm not sure what can
be done abbots forcing their hand herebecause you can't have the federal government encourage
this kind of lawlessness. We're goingto talk about this more coming up.
We're also going to get into there'sa few other things because this is just

(32:00):
all the latest with the HOUTHI andwe've got that as well, and we
got culture stuff. I'm running downmy list because there's a lot of other
little things that have been going on. And of course twenty twenty four there's
a big o' what do they callit, the Cyclone bomb or something bomb
cyclone something like that. It's goingto be super coold. It's already super
cold in Texas, it's going tobe super cold in Iowa. I really

(32:22):
don't think that that's going to affectturnout though, because this is Iowa.
Like there's several things that Iowan's know, corn meat on a stick and snow.
Right. That's like you know,giving us to Molly's here in Texas
and being like deal with it.Okay, you know, I don't know

People have to know because their kitchentable needs are what are important to them,

(34:27):
and the democracy message relates to thekitchen table. Democracy is a personal
issue. Freedom of choice to havea when and if you have a family,
freedom to enjoy your work knowing youhave a pension so that your family
will be secure, the education ofyour children, the safety of the environment

(34:47):
in which they live. He scoresvery high on all of those points,
and many people are appreciating and enjoyingit. They just are not giving him
credit for it. This is Ifeel drunk after hearing her. Are we

(35:08):
drunk or is she drunk? Doesshe know what democracy is? This is
what democracy looks I was, bythe way, my favorite thing from the
occupy stuff, and actually any leftyprotest because you always get some like dirty

(35:29):
trust fund, white trust fund progressive, and I always say white trust fund
progressive because they're the ones who calleverybody else racist. And they get out
there and they have bongos, right, and no idea of rhythm, like
none. They couldn't clap on beatif the if the survival of planet Earth
depended on it, all we needyou to do is just clap on beat.

(35:50):
We would all die. But theyget out there and they hit the
Oh my gosh, they hit thebongos. This is what democracy looks like.
That, oh my gosh, thatsounds and you feel drunk when you
listen to it. You're just like, wait a minute, am I sober?
Even though it's like nine am andyou've literally only had coffee. I
I don't know how to explain whatshe just said. There, man,

(36:15):
I can't look at her without thinkingof her freezer either. Is that weird?
Remember when we were all in lockdownand she was and she opens up,
She opens up her freezer drawer.She had a drawer. Wasn't wait
a minute, it was its ownfreezer. It was a sub zero freezer,
but it was the she had doorsand a drawer. The hell was

(36:35):
that? I want a drawer?I don't have that. But she opened
it up, and remember it wasall that bougie ice cream. I in
my I will never I've never seenanything like that, am I ever love?
In life? It was a wholewhole drawer of that bougie ice cream.
That stuff is like twelve dollars isit a pint? Like bitty one?

(37:00):
It was like twelve thirteen bucks forone of those things. You could
get two giant bluebells for that,three giant blue bells. I think for
that. Even in bidenfla shod andI was like we were all estimating.
We think this one hundred and fiftydollars with ice cream in that lady's drawer.
That's crazy. I can't see Icannot see her without seeing that.
We have a whole other hour onthe way. Female pilots, we gotta

(37:22):
talk. You can for Celtech.Celtex P fifteen is a must half.
This is not a think about it. It's not a oh, maybe this
would be nice. It is anabsolute must have in your EDC, your
every day carry rotation. And thereason why is because it is the lightest,
slimmest double stack concealed carry nine millimeteron the market. It's fourteen ounces

(37:43):
unloaded and it holds standard capacity offifteen plus one rounds. Tritum and fiber
optic front sight fully adjustable fiber opticrear striker, fire reliability, super sweet

(38:27):
should have national knowledge of policies.This has nothing to do with sanctuary cities.
MICUs An asylum seekers are parolled endto the countries. They're here legally,
and so when you have your nationalleader talking about sanctuary cities, is
the reason we happen? Is istelling me she's not knowledgeable on the real
topic. The problem is when youparole someone into a country, you should

(38:50):
have a decompression strategy on a nationallevel to spread it throughout the country and
not target just certain cities. Sothat's Adams who says that the crisis in
New York City has nothing to dowith them being a sanctuary city, because
see, you stupid people don't understandhow it works. Okay, it's science.

(39:12):
If someone enters the country legal illegally, then they automatically become legally here
when they're processed and released. That'sI mean, that just takes away the
need for any kind of you know, going through the immigration process. You
guys didn't know that because you're notas smart as Eric Adams. Welcome back

(39:34):
to the program, Dane lash Hertop of this second hour, and you
can listen Coast to coast. Youcan stream it on Channel thirty forty seven,
direct TV, YouTube, Facebook,all that good stuff as well video
component of the radio program. Iam amazed. Yeah, you know,
it's not because we're sanctuary city andwe told everyone, yes, come here

(39:54):
and we want allegal immigrants here.It's not because we said, hey,
we're not going to release illegal immigrantshere to ice, We're not going to
work with you, We're not goingto do any of that. It's not
because we said any of those things. That's not That's not the reason that
we're dealing with it, because youknow they're here legally. Now, did
you know that, like if yousteal something, so going by I guess
this is how it works. Imean, Eric Adams said, so if

(40:15):
you steal something, then when youare I guess detained and then released,
you haven't stolen it anymore, becomesunstolen. Did you know that hashtag facts
facks I'm not surprised with all thesore of das out there. That's so

(40:37):
if you're you know, detained forit and then you are released, that
means you are now an uncriminal.This is fun. Let's do this with
lots of things. So like say, I don't know, I get a
shotgun and I saw it off,right. I'm not saying I would do

(40:58):
this atf go to hell, butas allergies, we were waiting for our
hard freeze that's coming today. Soit's the cedar. I'm still thank you.
It may have sounded like something toyou, but it wasn't. It
was you got. It was justthat's my excuse me, thank you.
So, uh, the if youlike, if I had a shotgun and
I sawed it off and I wasdetained and released, it becomes unsowed off

(41:22):
after do you know that? Mmhmmm, right, fascinating stuff. Fascinating
So, uh, that's I don'teven what's the point then, what is
the point. That's the whole reasonwhy people wanted to do You know that
when when people were asked where theywanted to go in whether it was the

(41:49):
r GV or the del Rio orEagle pass Et cetera. Do you know
that the people who were detained,they were asked where would you like to
go? And they were like newYork City. Bill Malucian has people on
video saying this where they're like,yeah, in New York City and they're
asked why and they go because that'sthey said. They wanted us to come
there. And Eric Adams is like, that doesn't have anything to do with

(42:13):
why we have our crisis, doesn'thave anything to do with it. I
would love to live in that kindof world. That's like the Nancy Pelosi
world that he lives in a coupleof other things here with us. Yeah,
they and and that's the thing isKin notes make your point, because
you made a really good point justnow. They labeled themselves sanctuary city so

(42:35):
that they could prevent the federal governmentfrom deporting people here illegally. And now
here we are they have a lotof illegal immigrants and they can't even they
can't handle it. They need tolean on the federal government for it,
correct, So they could avoid havingthat happen, They could avoid deportation.

(42:55):
I mean, we remember the casewith that Kate Stanley out in California where
they guy who's illegally violent. Guyrepeatedly deported, came back killed her like
in broad daylight in front of everybody. But I mean, that's that's the
that's the that's the issue that we'redealing with. They've got to do something.
This has been decades in the making, all right, So can we

(43:17):
talk about this for a minute.I don't know, have you guys seen
this. This is a female airtraffic controller. Now. The reason why
let me bring this up, thethere's been I'm gonna pull this up because
this has been something that's kind ofbeen happening for a while, the issue

(43:37):
of female pilots. And there havebeen there's been this effort by I guess
airlines to try to recruit female pilots. Like back in April, there was
a story says, most airline pilotsare men, why are there more women?
And they act like it's something thathas been done to women as opposed

(44:00):
to something that women have just chosen, right, And this is this is
like really similar to to what we'vebeen seeing with the military, and like,
for instance, the US United theUnited States Air Force back in a
couple of years ago, they wereand they're still they still are they're dealing
with a major critical shortage of pilots. But yet simultaneously they're like, yes,

(44:22):
we have too many white pilots,and they're they're complaining that they have
too many pilots. I mean theywere, this was a public thing.
They were they were trying to Theysaid that they want to diversify their pilots.
I don't know that anyone told minoritiesthey couldn't be pilots. I think

(44:44):
it's just something that people choose,and they they gravitate towards. I don't
know, Like I I just Idon't have I don't understand this, this
narrative that someone else's choice, ifit doesn't validate your perception of the situation,
that that somehow amounts to evidence ofdiscrimination. This is what we've seen

(45:09):
with third wave feminists. I gotinto a huge fight like fifteen years ago
with some broad named Linda Hirshman becauseshe said that college educated women, if
they choose to stay home, buttraded their kids. And here I was,
you know, a college educated womanwith a newborn at home, reading
this, and I lost my mindon her, and I read her the
Riot Act and just shamed her becausehow stupid was she to think that the

(45:32):
whole point of their supposed female equalitywas for women to be able to exercise
whatever choice we wanted to, youknow, I mean, women worked a
long time to make it to wherethey could raise their children and stay home
with their children, and now yougot these broads. I want to drag
everybody out back away from that.Women have the ability to make free choices.

(45:54):
And if one woman chooses that shewoulds to stay home with her kids,
it doesn't make her lesson are womenon the right? Like ten years
ago, I had another debate witha woman who portrayed herself as being on
the right, who said that,like, for instance, that women who
chose to stay home that they're somehowgrifters or something like that. And of
course she was unmarried and childless,and going by her appearance, she was

(46:16):
bound to stay that way for theremainder of her life and attitude. But
that was that's done to a woman'schoice. I mean, what's the whole
point of equality, the so calledequality, if if you're going to still
judge somebody by the free choices thatthey make. It's not about outcome,
it's about choice. It's about havingthat free ability to choose. And this
also is applicable to the workplace.Going back to that whole lie where they

(46:40):
said that women still make less thanmen. Actually women are out pacing men
in pay. You're seeing more femaleCEOs, and now in every major city
more women are seeking higher education thanmen. Men are being detriment. It
stood men's detriment. They're being hurtby this, But it comes down to
women's choices. They did the surveywhere they were comparing like female nail texts

(47:04):
to act male doctors, and oneof the things that these surveys always omitted
was the fact that women by andlarge will choose, especially if they want
to start a family, they willchoose jobs that don't have that aren't high
pressure and have less hours and lesstravel. That's just their nature. But
that was always ignored by these thirdwave broads who wanted to use their choices

(47:28):
as some sort of evidence of discrimination, which shows you that this was never
about equal choice to them, It'sjust about destruction. You don't make yourself
equal by tearing other people down.That's not equality. That's just you trying
to handicap somebody else, while that'snot you actually living up to your full
potential, that you're taking the easiestway out. So that lies again,

(47:49):
like I said, at the workplace, and particularly this whole pilot thing.
So they've been having this this fightand they're trying to say that they're trying
to increase diverse in the cockpit,and I just really think that they need
to focus on especially after the doorsblew off that one plane, I just
really feel like, you know,they need to maybe focus on just you

(48:13):
know, like flying. And therewas literally I'm looking at a couple of
headlines like there's one Chicago Sun Times. White men have ruled the sky's airline
pilots, but that's finally changing diversityin the cockpit. Does who's at the
hell matter for safety? Wow?What grammar? And then you have United
Airlines they've been trying to push UnitedAirlines have been like one of the biggest

(48:37):
promoters of this, like like goingafter diversity apparently more than what's the word
I'm thinking of just actually competency.That's that's so stupid, But this is
what they've been pushing, Like Boeingwas announcing scholarships to increase diversity and commercial

(48:58):
pilots. Do you really have todo that. That sounds like discrimination.
I mean, I don't. Ifeel like you're gonna get people killed if
you're not focusing on competency and insteadyou're focusing on genitals or skin color.
That is so dumb. That's that'sthat's crazy having pilots. I mean,
when you're getting up in a vaginaaluminum tube, look at I mean,

(49:25):
whether it's you know, terror likeplane hijackings or crashes, how well that's
going to go? I think comesdown to the skill of the pilot.
I mean a lot of new pilotsdon't have military training. Uh and it
used to they did. But thisidea of equity in airlines or in the

(49:47):
cockpit is the dumbest thing I've everheard. This is they're trying to do
this to medicine and everything. Soyou have to compromise your safety so that
airline companies can check off a diversityquota. Now to that point, I
wanted to play this. This isso crazy. I actually don't want more
females flying if this is what it'sgoing to be. Like a female air

(50:08):
traffic controller is arguing with a pilotwho's been flying for longer about a landing
I want you to listen to this. This is insane audio. Somebyte one
for a short approach if you're goingto do a power off one to eighty,
that's my point. Well, okay, I will remember that from now
on, no problem. Yeah,when you ask for a short approach,
I expect you to turn your baseand being the numbers, this will be

(50:30):
a full stop for six to five. Charlie, And maybe we need to
talk about that some more because you'rethe first controller of fifteen years as ever
said that. Well, I'm justyou know, if you ask for a
short approach, a short approach iswhen you turn your base and meaning the
numbers. If I know you're astudent asking for a short approach, I
know you're out there practicing and youprobably will extend. But if you're doing

(50:53):
something other than a short approach,don't ask for a short approach. Well,
I will definitely look up the definitionof short approach because I've never seen
where it says you turn base ofBEMA numbers. Because I don't see how
you could possibly do that. Well, I googled it. Actually, I
googled short approach and it's said toturn your base a beam or before the
numbers and you will land probably touchdown around this field. Wow. Okay,

(51:19):
well, then I apologize for requestingthe wrong thing because everywhere else short
approach means four off one to eighty. But that's definitely not what to mean
too. Yeah. Well, Imean, you know, I don't know.
Maybe it's because I've worked at differentairports. I don't know, but
just I mean, how dare youtry to mansplayed man splain to this?
I mean, clearly, less qualifiedfemale know it all. You know when

(51:43):
you're flying a plane full of peopleand their safety depends on your skill,
I mean, how dare you tryto man splain into a less qualified female
who doesn't fly. You know whatI would have said. I would have
said, bitch, shut up,don't act shocked, and don't say,
Dana, you shouldn't talk like that, because that's exactly what I would have
said. I'd have been fired,but i'd have said it. I do

(52:04):
not have time for people who dothat kind of stuff. I just feel
like life is too short to entertainstupidity. I'm not responsible for someone else's
low self esteem. I'm not hereto make you feel better about yourself.
I'm not here to say I'm nothere to do that. I don't care
about de escalation. Get out ofmy way. I don't care. Oh
my gosh, I was listening tothis king goes. Could she also explain

(52:29):
to us how to parallel park?Seriously, sometimes it needs to be called
the way it is, all right. I just I can't. I just
can't with these people. And nowall of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick five.So the associated press is that US
pastors are struggling with post pandemic burnout. The survey shows half considered quitting since

(52:53):
twenty twenty, that it's at worryinglevels amongst Christian clergy. Of course,
it's never some churches at shutdown.They said more than four in tent of
clergy surveyed in the fall seriously consideredleaving their congregations at least once. I'm
going to tell you I was reallysurprised at the number of churches that closed,
and how so few churches stood againstthat, out of all the places
where you know that should have beenopen, where people when people needed respite,

(53:16):
Just saying a tenth of the clergysaid that they've had these thoughts often,
and they said that there's a collectivetrauma that clergy and congregants have experienced
since twenty twenty. I just thinkthe article's weird, but I also think
that it's a reflection of society.Really. More than anything, this is
a crazy, crazy story. Amillionaire con woman, she's fifty seven.

(53:39):
She swindled the military out of overone hundred million dollars through loopholes to splash
on thirty one homes in eighty cars. She forged her boss's signature to move
huge sums unto her accounts, shewas freed without bail. That's crazy.
We got a lot more on theway the latest with Iran and Hunter Biden.
Stick with us, whether you're apolicy walk, a news junkie,
or simply someone hungry for insightful discourse. That Dana Show podcast as your back.

(54:04):
Follow Dana on Apple, Spotify,or wherever you get your podcasts.
The President has made it clear SecretaryAustin is his defense secretary will remain his
defense secretary. He has full faithand confidence and Secretary of Austin and his
leadership. And that leadership, aswe just talked about, was on display
to everybody in the National security teamsin a hospital bed, still leading and

(54:27):
commanding our forces in some dangerous missionshere. And if you believe that,
then he's got a bridge to sellyou. That's just disingenuous. Nobody believes
that this is just the wrong timefor him to have gone mia or a
wall. There were some military leaderssaying, no, that's awall. Welcome
back to the program Dana last yearwith you bottom of this second hour.
And of course this is all relatedto the late what happened, what was

(54:49):
happening overnight with the UK US responseto who thy's in Yemen? Well,
in the Red Sea near Yemen,because Iran has been trying to they would
love an ESK I think they wantedan excuse for an escalation. They like
to go right up. If theyreally wanted a full on escalation directly with

(55:15):
the United States, they wouldn't useHasbola and the Hoothy's to do it.
So they want the US to beor others Saudi friendly countries to be the
antagonists. And so you've had alot of shipping in the Red Sea.
We were talking about this a littleearlier, you know, shipping in the

(55:37):
Red Sea where you've got I meanthis is oil and gas oil and gas,
and not just that, I meanthere's just how much goes through I
think we talked about this before.I mean, it's like the one of
the most important roots of transportation andshipping that exists. It's super important.

(55:58):
So when you go through the RedSea, you have Egypt, you have
Sudan, you have a couple ofother countries going to you also have Saudi
Arabia, and then going down towardsthe Horn of Africa where you've got Somalia,
Ethiopia, and it opens out tothe Gulf Aiden, and then right

(56:21):
there on the corner you have Yemenand wre A lot of people in Gen
X first learned all about Yemen becauseof friends, because Chandler being was going
to go there to get away fromJanis. Remember, and at one portion,
one portion of that, uh,the corner of Yemen there, going
from the Red Scene to the Gulfof Aiden is hoothy controlled. And Yemen

(56:44):
has been having a civil war.And so the argument, as I was
explaining in the first hour, isthat well, Israel has a blockade on
aid going into Gaza, which sidebartyou know they didn't. In fact,
they were sending aid for decades intoGossa themselves, stop acting like they who
are defending themselves with the aggressors againstthe terrorist entity. And so they're saying,

(57:07):
well, because of that, we'regoing to block anyone from leaving.
Except when you have two countries borderinga water away, it's like imagine that,
you know, the Rio grand isa lot bigger than it is,
but you have the United States onone side in Mexico on the other side.
That whole the whole Rio is notthe United States is nor is it

(57:28):
Mexico's. I mean, it's youstill have to negotiate a shared use of
this waterway. And so the samething is said in this area, it's
not just all of theirs. Imean it goes I mean it goes right
up against there's like a couple ofcountries that it goes right up against.
I know that. I mean it'slike like Sudan, and then there are
a couple of others. They don'tcontrol that entirely. And so the argument

(57:52):
from the left is that well theythey're doing that is in response, so
you can't you know, Yemen didn'tkill anyone. Well, the Hoothy controlled
area, the houthis definitely have andthey've tried to kill a lot of our
soldiers. I mean there've been andthese are all around back terrorist entities.

(58:14):
So the response, it is Barbarypirates two point zero is what I was
saying, because you know, Barbarypirates, you had how many hundreds of
Americans do they capture before we sentbecause we sent some emissaries over there,
and then finally we're like, youknow what, We're gonna kick your backside.
We're done, We're done. Andthen that's that's what happened. I

(58:35):
mean, he sent Thomas Jefferson sentlike a whole fleet over there. So
they're kind of like Barbary pirates twopoint zero and that they're they're attacking all
these merchant vessels and you know,et cetera. And it does you can,
I can be prevailed upon to acceptbecause there is some logic and there
is some fact to this that itis in part America's interest to have that

(58:59):
free and open route because it doesaffect energy. It affects a lot,
and you don't want to have adestabilized world economy or destabilized world because of
an energy crisis brought on by ablockade through the top route. For energy,
for oil and tankers and everything else. You don't want to have to

(59:20):
deal with that. So that's thatis kind of like what we're dealing with.
It's barbary two point zero. SoI do see that. However,
the war Powers resolution, and wetalked about this a little earlier, it
can be used. It can beused in instances of like repelling or like

(59:45):
a repelling a threat, or indefensively and it does now it's not,
you know, creating a new sweepingpower for the President of the United States.
It doesn't give him the authority towage war singularly, it doesn't give
him the authority to declare war.It doesn't if it is it's only I

(01:00:07):
mean really it only comes into playduring national emergencies and things of that nature.
But it is a statutory authorization.He cannot take unilateral offensive action without
the input of Congress. Right,And so the way that it was described
is because so many of our troopshave been targeted, sales have been targeted,

(01:00:30):
and other merchant vessels have been targeted, this is a defensive response.
But even then, the president hasforty eight hours to convene with Congress and
in anything else done after that Congresshas to have approval. I mean,
maybe they're going to explain here ina little bit whether or not that's happening,
but it's a check against the presidentgoing too far singularly and not introduce

(01:00:57):
military action as an offense. That'sthe way that it is, at least
legally interpreted. So the authorized useof military force outside of repelling a threat
or an immediate defensive maneuver like thishas to have approval of Congress. And
I think that's what a lot ofpeople are are wondering about. This is

(01:01:22):
where to where do we go afterthis? Because Iran would like escalation and
I think that you there has tobe serious enough of a threat for the
US to make a defensive maneuver likethis. Here's my other big thing,
though, why are we even havingthis conversation when this is literally in like

(01:01:45):
right by Saudi, This is ontheir border, these are in their shared
waterways. We've talked about normalizing relationshipswith the Middle Eastern countries in Israel,
but where's the Ara League? Andwhy I don't want to be used as
a as a pawn for the Saudisto go and fight their war against Iran.

(01:02:07):
And I feel like that that's aperfectly justifiable, reasonable thing to say.
So much of this is just theSaudis versus Iran. So why is
it US and UK? Where isSaudi? I mean, Kane, have
you seen that? I haven't seen? I mean, where is Ara League
Forces? Where's all this? Imean, my gosh, Egyptian. You're

(01:02:30):
telling me that those countries have lessof a stake in this than we do.
This is that's where all of theirstuff goes out. You're telling me
that they have less interest in thisthan we do. I mean, they
are oil rich nations. You're tellingme that they're broken, they can't somehow
handle defense. I mean, Ijust this is why I have these questions,
because shouldn't it be their responsibility first? And then if they need help

(01:02:52):
they reach out? You know whatI'm saying, Like, why why is
it always, oh well, UnitedStates? What are you gonna do?
UK? What are you gonna do? Why is it always that? I
I don't know, but I amfascinated that the people who got who were
living over the Solemony strike are defendingthis now. I want to make Some

(01:03:16):
people are I think unjustly criticizing ThomasMassey because Thomas Massey was asking about legal
authority for this, et cetera,and he actually he appeared to agree with
Rashida to Lib. Rashida to Leibwas saying, was talking about use of
authorized use of military force. ButI everything is so stupid in our political

(01:03:37):
discourse. So because some people aremad at Massey because he did endorse Trump,
they're floating this theory that he isnow floating, this argument that Thomas
Massey is defending Rashida to Leb anda Green and trying to defend terrorists,
which is such a disingenuous hack jobresponse. He's talking singularly about authorized use
of military force. He is notdefending her or defending the Whothies. And

(01:04:01):
if people can't differentiate between that,they are literally precisely the problem that we
have in American politics. Their stupidityhas paved the way for DEI and CRT
and all of the other bs thatactual reason conservatives have been fighting against.
I get so livid when I seethis stuff. It's such a stupid way

(01:04:23):
to try to invalidate someone over apetty offense that has nothing to do with
this thing at hand. And hemakes a legitimate point. Now I think
it's the way that they're floating atnow. And I don't know if you've
saw this trending, but they're tryingto say, oh, well, who
else is the US going to atthe US is going after Yemen for Israel.
That's not even remotely accurate. Now, that's coming from the pro Hamas

(01:04:48):
apologists within the Democrat Party, andas you can see, that's entirely not
in any way accurate either. Sowhat happens after this, because you've got
these I mean, you've got thesestrikes that were carried out, American led
air and naval strikes, and thisis after you've had gosh, what since

(01:05:09):
November how many drone attacks, missilestrikes from the Houthy's I mean, it's
so much. And American and Britishwarships today intercepted one of the largest barrages
of Houthy drone according to the NewYork Times, and missile strikes yet,

(01:05:30):
and that's apparently was the last strawfor everything. And the shipping lanes,
I mean, almost every merchant vessel. It's kind of crazy. So you've
got a lot of stuff. There'sno injuries or damages to any of us
or UK, the US or UKside. Now, the strikes were intended
to destroy the launching sites where theHoothis have been staging all these attacks.

(01:05:55):
And so the strikers, the strikeswere from fighter jets and Tomahawk missiles.
They went after all these Hoothy targetsto try to take out where they were
staging this and that's why, andthis is all from the Hoothis. They're
trying to punish the West because they'reblaming them for Hamas being a for Harmas's
situation in Gaza. Now what theywant to do, they want to force

(01:06:18):
people. Can you imagine like forcingwhat would that take? I'm just trying
to think of, like in termsof fuel cost, staffing. Can you
imagine the increase if you have toforce people all the way around Africa instead
of just going through the metialterrane.Can you imagine? I don't even know.
So that's going to be the narrativebattle right now. Although I don't
think that they're being very successful.I was looking to see what was trending.

(01:06:41):
I don't think that they're being verysuccessful with that battle because people are
like, yeah, we've been hearingthough about all these strikes that the Hoothies
have been carrying out this is Imean, we're done with this now coming
out twenty twenty four because it's supposedto be super super cold in Iowa.
Iowans are used to snow, Ionsare used to cold. I really don't
think that that's going to depress turnoutfor the Caucuses. We're gonna talk about

(01:07:04):
that coming up. It's his laughmission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida man. Okay, let'ssee here. A a fifty five year

(01:07:25):
old Florida man who has a lotof prior arrests, was again arrested because
he stole his dad's SUV twice.It was the second time that he stole
his dad's SUV. That's wild,he says, he grabbed this. The
guy said that his son grabbed aknife from the kitchen, hold it up
to his throat, et cetera.I looked just like that. He was

(01:07:46):
fifty five year old arrested for tryingto steal his father's SUV. This time
though he decided to bring a knifeto do it. To steal it.
So he's arrested. I mean,why would you if your kid did this
to you the first time? Why. I just don't know. Why would
you allow them to come back?I don't know this. Let's see a
couple of some of these are bad. I just can't. This guy launched

(01:08:09):
into a garbage truck during trash pickupgone wrong. A Florida man who accidentally
launched into one. He was aWaste Management garbage truck was making pickups along
its normal route in Pensacola. Thedriver approached and then he used the truck's
apparatus to lift and empty out thecontents end of the truck. And the

(01:08:31):
driver was unaware that there was somebodyinside of the dumpster and he was launched
into the truck as the dumpster wasbeing lifted. They emergency responders had to
arrive, They had to get usedladders, they had to get him out.
But yeah, that's I don't know. A woman through mac and cheese
potato wedges during bizarre incident at gasstation. According to police affidavit, she

(01:08:56):
looks very happy with herself. MercyThomas, very inappropriately named, was arrested
on charges of robbery by sudden snatching. Wait a minute, I'm sorry,
that's a charge sudden snatching, Likesnatching is sudden sudden snatching? Is it

(01:09:21):
suddener? I've never heard of thatcharge of you? I didn't Is that
only in Florida? I literally neverheard of that sudden snatching. I know
there's a story here, but Ican't get past this battery, criminal,
mischief, witness stampering. So theywere at a mobile gas station and two
women entered. They threw food,damaged merchandise, all caught on video.

(01:09:42):
One of the women, that's Mercycould be. She was yelling at a
couple the store owners. Then shethrew mac and cheese. She went on
to throw the store's potato wedges underthe ground. They tried to escort her
out of the store. She gotphysical, Then she shoved them over a
container of pickled sausages. They triedto take pictures of the license plate.
She snatched their phone threw it towardsthe road. Oh my gosh, this

(01:10:02):
sounds crazy. This is what happenswhen toddlers aren't tempered and they grow up
into women named Mercy Thomas. Andthen, yeah, it was just bad.
It was bad. So they arrestedboth. They arrested the women.
Her mugshots pretty bad. They arrestedthe women and She's charged with all kinds
of stuff like battery, all this. I didn't even know the sudden snatching
thing. I didn't even know thatthat was the thing. Oh, let's

(01:10:25):
see, I'm not reading this.No, No, I need people to
stop hiding things in their regions.We've had two of those stories already.
This is third. It's you knowwhat though, at some point people are
like, we got it. Youknow so many hiding places. I mean,
I just it was a woman whohid something somewhere. And would you

(01:10:50):
be surprised if I told you thatthe police found it? No, not
at all. If Florida woman slapsher add over an oxygen machine beeping sound,
according to Fox thirty five Orlando,she it drove her nuts, so
she hit her seventy three year olddad. She was arrested on battery on

(01:11:10):
a person over sixty five years ofage or older. It's not his fault.
Stick with a third hour on theway beat the left on banning China
from buying land uh in in thestate of Florida. We did all that
stuff? Is a climate criminal?Is a climate criminal? How much money
are taking from Oiyal company? Howmuch money he was taking from oil company

(01:11:35):
taking from the oil company. Clunis a climate criminal without calling is wrong
with the college system? Right?There isn't that something that would be nice
down one man, the one dude, the security dude who is on his
right, who saw that guy cominga mile away. I was super impressive

(01:11:58):
that dude, he like was movinginto the camera's view. Jan If you
can, first off, welcome backto the program, being a last year
with you top of this third hour, you can listen coast to coast.
You can stream the radio program.You can check out the simulcast as well
Channel three forty seven, direct TV, YouTube, Facebook, and the newsletter
over at substack, chapter and verse. Yeah, this one guy, he's
to the right of DeSantis when DeSantisis on stage and you can see this

(01:12:23):
dude moving in. He saw thisdude coming from a mile away and he
just moved in. Wan's got it. Got it on the h got the
video of it. You can seethe security guy move into the frame and
he comes he's right there and hejust runs and just knocks him to the
ground, just knocks him to theground. Give that dude a meddle,
man, That's that is awesome.He's not playing, He's not playing goodness,

(01:12:47):
and then they come up with theiryou know what, I was looking
at the stuff that they the littlebanners that they have, they're not like
paper banners, They're not made ofhemp. They're made of you know,
petroleum products. They they record themselves, you phones which are made of petroleum,
that have batteries that are made ofpetroleum. They wear shoes made of
petroleum, tied with shoelaces made ofpetroleum, wearing jeans made of petroleum,

(01:13:08):
jackets made of petroleum. They havejust the buttons and the zippers and everything
else on their jackets made of petroleum. The vehicles that they drive made a
petroleum. The you know, theeasements that they used to even get to
where they were going incorporated the useof petroleum. I mean, these people
are such hypocrites. They're absolute hypocrites. No one takes their No one takes

(01:13:30):
this seriously. This makes me lookat your issue like it's a joke.
It it looks hokey. Stop it. How much have you taken from fossil
fuel executives? Well, how muchfossil fuels are you using? You absolute
buck clown? How many fossil fuelshave you used today? Just waking up.
Let's go over it. You sleptin a bed made of fossil fuels,

(01:13:51):
on a pillow made of fossil fuels. Right, do you charge your
fossil fuel made phone and your fossilfuel made charger and your fossil fuel made
outlet? You using fossil fuels,you stupid moron, because most of electricity
eighty over eighty seven percent of it'smade in coal powered plants. And then
what you do? You woke upand you probably grabbed some sort of flatwear

(01:14:13):
and servewear made with fossil fuels,and then you used you ate food that
was grown and transported and packaged anddelivered to you using fossil fuels, didn't
you, you stupid buck clown.I bet you did. See that's why
I can't run for office, becausethat's literally would have been my response,
and I wouldn't have waited for mysecurity to tackle them. I would have

(01:14:35):
done it. I can't, Iknow because see in my mind, I
am seven foot tall. My husband'sI got to tell you guys a story
because my husband, God love theman. There's two times this has happened.
There was one time when we werein Wisconsin, Okay, because I'm

(01:14:55):
not joking when I say I wouldhave tackled a guy, because I've done
these things before. We were inWisconsin and it was during the big recall,
right when they had the Scott Walkerrecall, and you remember how nasty
that got, how mean that was. And I was up there speaking to
do and we were up there tryingto encourage people to get out and vote
in the recall and all this stuff. And we were up at the Capitol

(01:15:16):
and I was speaking and somebody,somebody was heckling me, and I looked
and there was some big o' dudesin the back right and they were one
of one of these dudes is wearinglike overalls and they and they, and
I don't like people that think thatthey're gonna I'm sorry, you guys are

(01:15:38):
gonna laugh at me. You're notgonna outread at me. Okay, when
you see where I come from.Ain't gonna happen. All right, It's
not gonna happen. Just so,I'm up on stage and they were calling
me all kinds of names. Some being me, you know, I
literally jumped off the stage over thePA system and I made a B line
for them. My husband's having aconversation with someone, and they just find

(01:16:00):
then noticed that I was not talkinganymore, and they're like, your wife
literally just jumped over the pa andis heading for these dudes. And I
was real cool, Like I didn'tgo over there and like kick him in
the nads or nothing. I mean, I was real cool. But I
went over there and I was like, you got a problem with me?
I got a problem with you havinga problem with me. And they did
not know what to say to thatinitially, and then they were like,

(01:16:20):
oh, you know whatever, youbig city folk. And I'm like,
you think I'm cityfolk. I'm like, do you realize that my family had
a party line in the nineties?What are you talking about? Caine's dying?
Gen Z don't even know what thatis, do they? They didn't
even know what a party Do yourealize that you would literally have to pick
up the phone. No, thiswas in the nineties, guys, So
that's how rural hi. You wouldhave to literally wait for somebody to get

(01:16:45):
off the phone and make a call. People be on the phone like,
well, I don't know bleadis andyou're just like, can I get a
call? I gotta call my friend. Oh my, you know, anybody
could pick up the phone and listen. This is for real. And they're
like sitting here like well, I'mlike you you're you live in you live
right by the state capitol. Shutup. I'm like, you sit here,
think that you're you're that you struggle, You've been brought up in a

(01:17:09):
struggle. Let me sit I mean, I don't want to sit here and
try to have like a pour offwith you, but I will and I
will win. And I'm like,don't don't sit here and do this class
warfare stuff against me. I'm like, we have a hell of a lot
more in common than we do otherwise. I'm like, you're just getting played
by these people who are sending youout here to do their dirty work.
I'm like, who's paying you?Who are your bosses? I'm like,
you got some fat cats sitting ina nice suit in a warm office right

(01:17:31):
now while you're right here freezing.You took us off in your overalls.
I go, am I wrong?We ended up actually being friends? M
hm, we did. His namewas Darren. We ended up I remember
his name is sake. We endedup being friends. Second time I jumped
off the stage. It was inSaint Louis under the arch. That was

(01:17:53):
actually a big drop too. Ijumped off this stage and I made a
b line for a guy who hadbeen trolling me, and I got into
his face. So when I sayI would tackle my own people, I
would tackle instead of my own people, I'm not lying. And my husband
is like, stop doing that.He's like, I know that you think
you're seven foot tall. You arefive six. I'm like I'm five seven.

(01:18:16):
It's exasperating. God love him.So this climate activist, I just
that's that. That would have beenthe response. And you know what when
he's like, this is the stateof cologist, the fact that you don't
know this and you're up there screamingabout oh climate, you're a climate and
came brought up a good point.What is a climate criminal? Like can
you actually offend against the weather?Can you? And how does it compare

(01:18:44):
to other criminals? Yeah? Whatis a climate criminal? I don't like
what you said about the weather,you offender? I said it was cold.
I don't like it. And Idon't know how much of money have
you gotten from fossil fuel? Ohbig fossil fuel? Ink? You mean
gosh. I love oil. Ilove oil, and I love gas.

(01:19:08):
Yay, yay, yay. It'sreplenishing. People think that there's like a
finite amount. You know, there'sstuff that makes more of it. Shut
up. I love it. Ilove oil. I love big Oil.
If I could be best friends withBig Oil, I would. If I
could take Big Oil to J.C. Penny and do one of those
photos where it's us and then theghost faces of us in the background,

(01:19:29):
I would totally do it. Ilove big Oil, I love petroleum.
I love the smell of gasoline.I love gas, I love ll andng
I love all of it. Ilove coal. Sometimes I just like to
hold some of the briskets. Ilove it. I wanted to be bad
all a year for Christmas so Icould get actual energy and my stocking.

(01:19:53):
I love it. I wish theypaid me. Oh my gosh, I'd
be like, yeah, I getpaid by Big Oil. What then I
do the d generation X thing andthese dummies who's paying them? Well,
they're probably unemployed. I mean,I don't know who would pay them.
But their sign was made by petroleumproducts. Because it's one of those plasticky

(01:20:14):
you can see it. It's oneof those. It's not like a paper
thing, it's like one of those. They had it professionally printed using petroleum
products on material made with petroleum products. Oh oh, they're like some of
the biggest offenders out there. Funny, isn't it. I mean, it
just works for his campaign, doesn'tit. It really does. I mean

(01:20:36):
I would want to be protested likethat. I love protesters. I spoke
at UH in Denver one time andI had people outside protesting me and this
one. I think one person wastrying to say that it was a fascist,
but they said that Dana Lash isfash and I'm like fashionable. Yes,
I love protesters. I was likegoing out like cell. I'm like,

(01:20:57):
I will totally do that. Ilove it. Come and flatter my
ego. I don't care. Idon't get bothered by the things that you
think that would That would bother understoodthe logic behind calling someone that is on
the right a fascist. It makesabsolutely no sense. It It like far
right would be no government. Yeah, not like more in your face.

(01:21:17):
They don't understand that because they areso addicted to the teat of government that
they can't imagine none of it.Surely nobody wants no government. What it's
our best friend. And in contrast, the far left would be absolutely fascist.
It's literally a tenant of the left. Fascism is not a tenant of

(01:21:39):
the right. Yeah, exactly,It's just it is. It's weird.
Oh my gosh, can I alsoweird? So do you remember the debate.
I'm not going to talk about thedebate. I'm going to talk about
this comment and this reporter's reaction toit. I meant to get to this
yesterday and it like fell off withthe table. So during the debate there
was a moment. I think itwas when it was like at the very

(01:22:01):
beginning and Decantos was talking about likeHaley's something policies, and he was saying,
you know, you can't be youknow, pale. It was in
his speech opening remarks, you knowyou can't do you know pale pastels?
Right, And this reporter Ali Vitallyreally really yeah. I don't think that

(01:22:27):
people can hear you? Can they? Okay, he's over here, like
are you serious? Ali Vitally soundslike a Nickelodeon name. This is what
she tweeted. Quote A color scheme, pale pastel or otherwise is not the
way to attack a presidential condidat.None of the men who've been on these

(01:22:48):
debate stages have had their clothesies tocriticize their policies. Oh my gosh.
So this reporter tweeted it and thenshe wrote about it on NBC News's live
blog. And guys, do youguys know what that line's from. It's

(01:23:08):
from Reagan's speech. It's a Reagan'sspeech that he made. Uh. And
he used the line you can't youhave to use bold, You have to
we're talking about policy. You haveto use bold colors, not pale pastels.

(01:23:29):
That's an homage to that line.And this reporter literally thought that DeSantis
was talking about her actual Nikki Heley'sactual clothes. This is our media.
Oh dude. Not only did thisreporter tweet it, she legit put it

(01:23:49):
up on NBC news is liveblock.Wait, and nobody at NBC said,
hey, like, is there nobodyold enough at NBC to know? Oh
my gosh, or is it Idon't know if it's an issue old enough,
but it's just like stupid, Ohmy gosh. And then there was
a third reporter and they said,uh, that he talking about Desanta's with

(01:24:15):
Hailey, and he accused her beinginspired by Hillary Clinton and painting metaphorically with
pale pastels, an eyebrow raising wordchoice to attack the first female governor of
South Carolina, especially since she waswearing a pastel top. Was it pale?
Oh? It's our media guys there. They're your moral and smart betters.

(01:24:44):
And now all of the news youwould probably miss. It's time for
Dana's Quick five. So the Fedsare charging eBay over employees who sent live
spiders and cockroaches to a couple.They're gonna have to pay three million dollars.
It's an online harassment. It's aharassment campaign waged by employees. They

(01:25:05):
sent a whole bunch of stuff tothis Massachusetts couple. The Justice Department charged
them was stocking, witness stampering,obstruction of justice. This was an extensive
scheme to intimidate David and Ena Steiner. The couple produced an online newsletter called
e Commerce Fits that upset EVA executiveswith its coverage, and so EVA accepted

(01:25:29):
responsibility for the employee's actions. Theysaid that it was horrific, et cetera.
So, I mean, what broughtemployees to do something like this on
behalf of a company unless they weretold, you know what I mean,
like, who just does that onbehalf of a company, especially in this
day and age. But they saidthat the couple, they sued them in

(01:25:49):
federal court. They said that theygot all coding, they got harassment.
It went even to a bloody pigmask. They sent a book about surviving
the laws of a spouse to thedoor like they were gonna kill one of
the this one of them. Sothey had the spouse dealing with bereavement,
all this kind of stuff that theysent to them, including harassing emails.

(01:26:12):
They signed them up for all thesenewsletters, all this stuff. This was
crazy. So, yeah, there'sgonna be some prison time served in a
three million dollar fee for that.Inflation rose to three point four percent in
December, obviously higher than expected.The researcher whose work may have created the
RONA is still receiving fifty million dollarsin US government grants. And guess what

(01:26:33):
he's found another virus in bats.Doctor Peter Dazak, a British zoologist,
is at the center of concerns overthis, and he was given another US
grant. And there's this British researcher, and there's been a lot of outcry
and protest of that. Eco HealthAlliance got a new five year grant in
August and the funding is going tosee the group study Guess what coronaviruses in

(01:26:56):
bats in Southeast Asia? They gotthat and then they got another grant.
This guy Dazik, he got anothergrant. What in the world aren't you
so glad that you pay so muchin tax? Really? And commuters discovered
that their brand new seven hundred thousanddollars in New York City subway gates can
be easily opened without paying. Sothe MTA is trying to crack down on

(01:27:18):
that. Great job. Stick withus, elevate your commute workouts or downtime
with the Dana Show podcast. Unleashthe power of knowledge at your fingertips by
following Dana on Apple, Spotify,or wherever you get your podcasts. We
do have to ask this because inFebruary of twenty twenty one, the Secretary
blink and actually evokes the terror designationof the Houties, saying in a statement

(01:27:41):
that the decision was a recognition ofthe dire humanitarian situation in Yemen at the
time what do you make of thisdecision and does it need to be reconsidered
a humanitarian situation which is not completelyalleviated obviously. So what I'll tell you
is that we're reviewing that designation rightnow. We haven't made up a decision
about whether we're going to revoke itor not, or change it again or

(01:28:01):
not or not. But I cantell you we're looking at that real hard
again. The Huthis have a decisionto make, and they need to make
the right one now. Certainly inthe wake of these strikes last night.
You really think they're going to makethe right decision. Yeah, this came's
right. They already made their decision. Welcome back jan I last year with
you. Bottom of the third hour. Saudi Arabia's voice to great concern says

(01:28:27):
their foreign ministry over these air strikes. The statements said, quote, the
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is following withgreat concern the military operations taking place in
the Red Sea region and the airstrikes on a number of sites in the
Republic of Yemen, and they're callingfor self restraint and avoiding of escalation.
Tell that to the Houthis and also, where are you at and all of

(01:28:51):
this where the Saudis in this,Are they just going to sit back and
let the United States handle Iran forthem? Because that's something we sure as
hell aren't going to do. Weshouldn't. I mean, I that's that's
their job to deal with the powerstruggle in their region. Oh boy,

(01:29:15):
yeah, that's the only I reallydon't think that they this has been ongoing,
and have they did they I waslooking actually on break and I didn't
recall that they had sent out Idon't think that I could see any kind
of statement after how many weeks ofrocket attacks and drone attacks that they carried
out. I mean, that's justsaying. I just really don't I don't

(01:29:41):
really think. So I saw thisheadline, I felt like correcting it that
everyone's pushing, they're saying, ohmy gosh. The Swedish Defense Minister carl
oscar Bolin issued a stark warning tothe Swedish people because Sweden's you going to
be joining NATO and they said,oh, be ready for war. And

(01:30:02):
in fact it was just like kindof like a side off comment where he
was saying that they've enjoyed x amountof years of peace and prosperity, and
that doesn't mean that you can beapathetic. That's literally all he said.
And everyone's like Sweden's telling their peopleto go to war. Where does this
come from? It's been repeated rightleft, everywhere where. Did that We've

(01:30:24):
got enough going on right now inthe Red Sea and in Gaza without this.
We don't need that. We gotenough going on right now. This
uh, all of this with thelike I said, with the Red Sea,
though I know what is it.Biden spoke about it yesterday and was

(01:30:47):
detailing the uh talking about the response, and they keep saying, well,
you know, the who thies needto make a choice, and they you
know, they you better stop this, et cetera. I I mean,
I I don't know if them doingthis is going to be enough of a

(01:31:12):
deterrent because they waited so long todo it, because this has been weeks
of them attacking I mean, actuallysending in drawne attacks to our own vessels.
It's what I'm saying. It's notThey're not just targeting merchant ships that
are owned by different entities. Imean, they've been this this zone that
the who these have been controlling hasbeen pretty wide, and this in fact,

(01:31:40):
I think, isn't it. Iwas reading this other headline too,
the Indian Navy or the what isthe Indian Navy. They've been flexing some
maritime muscle. This is from YahooNews. It shows that now they're Prime
Minister Mody, who's going to beelected later this year, is expected to

(01:32:00):
world's fifth largest economy. Last year, they displaced China as the most populous
country in the world. In fact, I was watching just I was actually
just watching the episode of James MayArmy in India because I love James May
and Grand Tour and all of thatand Jeremy Clarkson, and I was watching
James May's show and he actually wentto the village where the baby that displaced

(01:32:25):
China as the most populous country inthe world was born. It was very
interesting. But now they're looking atcombat operations because they're having to deal with
it as well. So they havetheir Prime Minister. They said that it's
New Delhi's significant expansion of a maritimeforce that also was reflecting their ascension on

(01:32:50):
the world stage. That's I thinkthat's incredibly significant. And so they've always
had deals kind of negotiated around them, and now like particularly like Belton Road
and all of that stuff. Imean, everybody's been like they had these
oversea bases, that Belton Road,those negotiations open and like Djibouti and elsewhere,

(01:33:13):
and it really concerned Indian officials.And so now Indian officials, they've
overtaken China and population, they're thefifth the world's fifth largest economy, and
they're they're going to be displacing they'relooking to compete and displace other nations with
that as well. And now they'vegot mirror time muscle there that's going to
be incredibly significant. Think about thegeographical the geography there and the location of

(01:33:34):
India and then the Shared Sea andthen where the Gulf of Aden after everybody
comes through those shipping lanes. There'sthis is going to be very interesting to
watch in the next ten years.But they're also they're getting involved now.
So there's a lot of stuff.This stuff maybe you know, you would
have been able to have like terroristsand these terror groups like this and these

(01:33:56):
sort of entities kind of drive increaseand prices for energy and shipping and kind
of control the area a little bit. You could. Everything has been changing
so much that I don't think thatthey're going to be able to use that
same nineties and eighties playbook. AndI don't know, we're gonna We're gonna
watch it and see. But it'dbe great if we had a SEC def

(01:34:19):
that wasn't U. I don't know, I don't you know what I was
thinking too with Lloyd Austin, ifwe didn't know that he was out,
if they were kind of if theywere covering up that, then what would
they not cover up with Biden?What we what would we not know with
Biden? If they didn't think thatit was that we were entitled to know

(01:34:42):
this about the SEC deft, thenwhat would they say that we're not entitled
to know? With Biden? There'sjust medb there's just just thinking out loud,
all right. A couple of otherthings. You know, I made
mention of the pilot thing earlier.Uh the I was going to pull this
up real quick. I've got amillion things up here, the whole pilot
situation with the diversity. So theSouthwest Airlines it was United Airlines and Southwest

(01:35:06):
Airlines, and Lorraine shared with methat Southwest deleted their post. This was
when they were they're pushing the femalediversity in the cockpit. They deleted their
post where they were pushing this allfemale flight crews because the replies were just
off the charts, and so theydeleted their They deleted their initial tweet about

(01:35:30):
it. I mean, yeah,just focus on safety. Everything else will
fall in place. They deleted theirthing on that. So all right,
So twenty twenty four Monday, isit? So when we rejoin after the
weekend, we're going to be inthe thick of the Caucasine for Iowa,
and it's going to be super cold. How cold is it going to be
in Iowa that day? Is itgoing to be like negative? Because here

(01:35:53):
in Texas it's going to be ninedegrees a whole nine degrees, not even
ten nine, And we're expected toget ice, which means Texas is gonna
shut down. Not me, becauseI've got all the generators in the world,
but Texas is expected to shut down. Yeah, that says how it
is. We don't know what todo when it gets icy. But in

(01:36:14):
Iowa they're used to this stuff.I mean, good grief, that's it's
the land of snow and corn andcoat. They're like, yeah, they're
used to I have a friend whowas Okay, So when I was in
college, one of my friends Iwent to university in Saint Louis. One
of my friends was from Iowa,and I just remember like one fall it
was chilly out and I was wearinga jacket and she had this like parka.

(01:36:38):
I'm like, that's the most seriouscoat I've ever seen. It looked
like something from in art that youwould wear an Antarctica. And she was
like, that's just what I have. You know, like, because it's
so cold up I've never seen acar. There were like multi layers.
There was like a hood in thehood right, and then like when she
zipped her little thing all the wayup to our neck and you could pull
this thing up over your face.There was like a thing that you pulled
up and then the thing that youpulled up. It was like there was

(01:36:59):
so oh, it was so sophisticated. She was like, it's just your
average coat, like your average coat. What. So I always joked,
I'm like the Land of coats becauseI've never seen it. There's you know,
good grief. We got like apuffer jacket and that's it. Anyway,
long story short, they're used tothis stuff, so everybody's gonna be
out. The argument has always beenit's gonna be whose people are the most

(01:37:24):
devoted and energetic caucus goers. Sowe're going to see that. But we'll
know Monday night, the whole thing, the whole landscape could change Monday night.
You don't know, We don't know. It couldn't. It couldn't because
then you got New Hampshire, SouthCarolina. So this isn't over yet.
It just seems like it's gone onforever because some people decided to do it
really early. But we'll kind ofsee how this goes. But that's Monday's

(01:37:47):
the day, and so rest assured. We're gonna kind of pregame it.
We're gonna I'll have the pieces goingout to you on the newsletter over at
chapter and verse, and then Tuesdaywe're gonna recap and go over what it
means, how it's going to affectNew Hampshire everything from then, we're going
to cover all of that. Sowe're gonna get your set up so you
kind of have a little bit ofthe lay of the land there. Follow

(01:38:10):
Dana on Apple, Spotify or whereveryou get your podcasts, because now it
is your ultimate superpower. Who arewe who are they really fighting. It's
a group of cowards. They hidein tunnels, they hide behind civilians,
They attack, kill and utilate children, women, and they do that.

(01:38:35):
Stop talking about proportion on that.They shot their best shot on October seventh,
and they would have taken more livesif they could have done that,
but they couldn't do it. Andnow let's also talk about that. Now
we're talking about genocide. And nowSouth Africa now is now bringing that kind
of ad in the trial. MaybeSouth Africa, do you want to sit

(01:38:56):
this one out where they're talking aboutcriticizing that's John Fetterman, Okay, I
can he gets the past to wearthe hoodie and the Steelers hat. I'm

(01:39:17):
gonna let it go. I'm lettingit go lately. Uh wheedies. I
don't know, like this is wild. He sounds not at all like he
had a stroke. Right. Itwas when he it felt like he was

(01:39:39):
saying things that other people wanted himto say. That that's when it sounded
like, you know what I'm saying. How weird is this? It's weird?
Right? I like this John,I don't know what I remember he
was, what is happening? Hewas struggling when he had to read something.
You remember that when he had toread stuff, and there he was.

(01:39:59):
You saw it right there on video. He was speaking from the heart,
I mean, and sounding good.I don't know what to make of
us. We like this, JohnVatterman is there, right? I like

(01:40:20):
this reality better than whoever was runningin twenty twenty two against doctor oz oh
Man this. Yeah, I mean, I don't know, man, I
don't know. All right. Twothings, fruit stripe gum is no more.
Wait a minute, yeah, really, the Chicago company told Food and

(01:40:45):
Wine that they're discontinuing it. That'sthe fruity stripe gum. I don't know,
that's what it is. I don'tknow what the fruit flavor was ever.
You're just like, I guess thisis fruit. I don't know.
By the time you were trying totaste and decipher what fruit it was,
the flavor was gone. Yeah.The flavor lasted for point five seconds.

(01:41:10):
You put it in your mouth andit punched you in the face and the
rain away and you're like fruit oohno, And that was it. And
I think the reason why so itsold so much, they sold so much
fruit stripe gum is because it lastedfor such a short time. You would
chew it for five seconds and haveto spit it out. It would come
in that like thirty stick pack,like you couldn't get it in a smaller

(01:41:31):
pack. No, they understood theneed. They understood at least that much,
all right, last, but notleast. I don't know if you
were aware, but Joe Biden thismorning decided to forgive a whole bunch of
other Oh, forgive, decided togive away a whole bunch more of your
tax pair dollars in the form ofstudent loans. So up to six point
nine million Americans in the Save Planwho got student loans are going to have

(01:41:54):
theirs wiped clean if they've been payingthem for a decade. Now, they
said, here's the thing, theysaid, if it's Americans in this Save
plan that received less than twelve thousanddollars, if you, I'm just going
to say it, if you've beentaking ten years to pay off a twelve
thousand dollars student loan, you donot know how to manage your money.
You do not know how to manageyour money, and you don't just have

(01:42:15):
you No, I can't believe we'redoing those this is a payoff. They're
buying votes. This is so stupid. That's that's the dumbest thing ever.
If you have been taking ten yearsto pay off a student loan in the
save plan that's less than twelve thousand, you're a bad You're horrible at money
management. So they said that,I guess what he thinks that this is

(01:42:38):
going to check a box for somethingthat's low income because all of the other
stuff previously was the super expensive gradschool. Do I mean you have six
point nine people enrolled in this rightnow. So yeah, that's what they're
doing with our tax but in atime of severe inflation, when you know,
our veterans can't even get the carethat they need, but they're going

(01:42:59):
to do this. Just just justgood grief. So that's what they announced
this morning. Makes you feel reallygreat, right, just real just paying
off everybody's paying off everybody? Whatdeck can I get paid off? I
mean I don't really, I don'thave any debt, but you know if
I did, could I get itpaid off? Well? I don't know.

(01:43:24):
All right, we got to day'sstupidity. Well this is a rep
is it? Palmila? Pamela?Oh yeah, Jaya Paul. That's right,
all right? So Rep. JayaPaul was out there talking about how
heavy handed Biden has been on theborder. You can't make this stuff up,
but this has cut thirteen one tosee it. There is so much

(01:43:45):
fear mongering going on that it isdifficult to know exactly where to start.
But let me say this first.The Biden administration is enforcing immigration laws.
In fact, the administration has beenso heavy handed in recent months that I
have serious concerns about how they areconducting border enforcement. Is it is this

(01:44:06):
a joke? What do you meanheavy handed? Like? What is?
What? Are they? His handsso heavy that he didn't lift them to
do anything on the border. Isthat what she means? I think makes
sense. Yeah, that sounds moreaccurate. His hands are so heavy he
couldn't actually lift them to do anythingat the border. I think that makes
sense. All right, So caucusnext week, Iowa Caucuses, and we're

(01:44:28):
gonna walk you through it, breakit down, make it make sense for
you, and get you ready forwhat's whatever comes after. Send it for
the newsletter, chapter and verse overat Substack. Have a great weekend. God bless
