(00:00):
He doesn't have a lot of options. And look, here's reality. Everybody
has a number that is too bigbefore they say something's got to be done.
Some Republicans, if one person cameacross the undocumented, they'd say,
shut the whole border down, buildthe wall, and never let the door
be back open. Some people mightbe ten, some people might be one
hundred thousand, a million, fivemillion, fifty million. At some point

(00:22):
the numbers too big even for Democrats. And now we're at a place where
because Congress won't act, Republicans won'tlet Congress act. The number is too
big of people coming across the border, even for Democrats, and so the
president it's going to take some action. Reality is the course might strike it
down. Also, to your point, he's floating these trial balloons to kind
of see what the reaction is.But if Republicans are going to politicize the

(00:44):
issue and then refuse to act onit, Biden has to do something.
I'm trying to figure out how Republicanspointing out that the border is whye a
double snakes open is also politicizing theissue. I mean, you know here,
I just thought it was just HunterBiden that hit the rock every morning,

(01:04):
but apparently a lot of these othercommentators do too. I'm telling you,
welcome to the program. It is, it's it's it's weird because I
kept thinking that today was Tuesday.Really uh huh, yeah, I have
some Yeah, well I know,I'm like, thank Heavens, it isn't.
And so welcome to the show.You can listen across the country.

(01:26):
We got a lot of stuff toWe'll got a lot of stuff we're gonna
be hitting for you today and allthe latest with this this all this just
goofy border stuff in twenty twenty fourand the whole VP thing because everybody's mad
all over again and I'm just sotired of it. Uh. And so
we're we're gonna get into all ofthat so as we get to oh and
then and then make sure you sendup for the newsletter chapter in verse because

(01:48):
stuff is getting a rearranged over thereand exciting, exciting stuff. All right.
So guess what, The border's stillopen. I don't know how long
we're gonna say that border's still wideopen, wide open. But I really
don't feel like, you know,when I'm looking at their messaging on all
of this, They're not getting itlike Democrats are not getting it. They're

(02:13):
not getting any of this. Theydon't seem to understand that you're not going
there's no amount of spinning, there'sno amount of you know, because that's
what it seems like they're trying todo that you're going to be able to
use in order to get the Americanpeople to agree with you that this has
been politicized by people. It doesn'tseem politicized to the people who are having

(02:36):
to deal with it at the border. It doesn't seem politicized to any of
them. It doesn't seem politicized toyou know, the border patrol agents that
are just trying to keep their headabove the water. I mean, it's
the others to it. It doesn'tseem like that from them for them at
all. So he's probably politico thispiece that they have. And this ran

(02:58):
last night. This up for you, it ran last night. It says
he's considering a major new executive order. Now, notice how how they're pushing
this out. So they're like alwaysconsidering this new executive order. And it
kind of makes you think, like, oh wow, what is he gonna
do? Is he gonna like toport you know, people is he gonna
shut shut it down? Like whathow is he gonna deal with us?

(03:19):
No? No, no, no, no no, no. Final decisions
have been made, and they saidif any you know, it could be
uh that you know, they arelooking at, you know, some of
the policies they're looking at maybe perhapsuh trying to what they think, fast
track more people through the process.Uh, maybe they have you know,

(03:40):
something about unaccompanied minors. Whatever it'sgonna be, you're gonna they're gonna try
to tease you with this idea thathe's he's finally got the message and he's
gonna get tough. And that's nottrue at all, not true at all.
Now this comes as and I believethis was in your I think I
had this in your prep email thismorning over on the newsletter. So this
comes out as the majority of peoplethey're not buying the spin that you're getting

(04:02):
from the left on this. They'rethey're they're simply not. I mean they
you know, they're they're they havebrains, they they do understand, you
know, they understand this stuff.But they the whole point with with the
and I had the survey. Letme pull this up because there was a
survey that was done of Americans nationally. And then there was a survey that

(04:23):
was done of Texas residents which Ithought was interesting, and it showed that
people overwhelmingly absolutely believe that that peopleare the Democrats are are a responsible more
so than Republicans, which I thinkit's kind of both, but Democrats have
been worse with it that they're verybad. And also that here it is

(04:46):
forgive me because I have like amillion things that I literally changed the layout
of my own newsletter. Now Ican't find it. This is still this
is so just genius data. Okay, so I got it here, all
right. So they the majority ofpeople, the majority of Texan vote,
the majority of Texans completely disagree withthe border with Biden as it relates to
the border, and nationally, thereare a lot of people nationally according to

(05:10):
the last story that they took onthis is like two three weeks ago.
But they are not buying, andthis includes a lot of moderates independence.
They're not buying what Democrats are spinningabout this stuff. So I feel like
now they've gone. Have you noticedthey've moved from we're going to talk about
the border too. Hey, guys, that Russian stuff. Have you seen
it. They're back to Russia.They went from trying to spend so hard

(05:33):
on the border and they're back toRussian. And that's if you ever want
to to sign that they're not successfulwith the narrative on the border, then
that's all you need to it.They were really trying to make that happen.
It's not happening. So now they'reall pushing the whole Russian collusion thing.
They think that they're going to hookyou on that as opposed to the

(05:54):
lawlessness at the open border. Andin the meantime for that, I keep
here and everybody still make the casefor this Ukraine supplemental for their Ukraine spending.
In fact, I watched an interviewearlier today with Nikki Haley and she
was trying to make the case forit, and she was asked, well,
you know, how are you gonnabecause most people, you know,
most people don't agree with you onthis. They they look at everything like

(06:15):
I was just talking about everything that'shappening at the southern border. They see
all of that. They're not theythey are not believing the argument that they
have to send their taxpayer dollars overto Ukraine. To purchase munitions xyz.
I mean it's been billions of dollars. There was a piece that I read
that came out this morning that wasdiscussing how ah, they're running low on
this that they need, you know, missiles, they need all this rockets,

(06:40):
they need all this other stuff,and it's getting there, it's getting
catastrophic, et cetera. And that'swhat we've been told though this entire time,
Like every single time we him andhaw Or hesitate to send tax dollars
over, we're told that you're imperilingessentially the entire world and you're gonna be
the cause of World War three.That's what they're setting this up as.

(07:01):
And it's just it's it's just it'sasinine. Uh But I Nikki Hayley was
asked about that and she was saying, well, you know, then they'll
take Ukraine and then they'll they'll movein and they'll be right there. They
said they would go after uh,you know, Romania and some of these
other they then go after the BalticStates. I just don't see why in
the hell would they do that.That doesn't make any sense. They're barely
able to get as far and aslong into it with with Ukraine, as

(07:24):
they've been able to now barely youthink that they're going to turn around somehow
and all of a sudden be strengthenedto the point that they can take on
NATO. That's just such a speciousargument and we're gonna explore that a little
bit more later on. Uh,everyone's cell service was, well, not
everybody at and to my cell servicewasn't out at all. I have an
amazing Yeah I didn't. I didn'tnotice nothing. They So what do they

(07:46):
mean? So basically everybody's cell servicewas out, not everybody, But if
you have what at and T andVerizon and whatever, you were on SOS
or you just didn't have it atall. Yeah, mindset SOS only this
morning and now I'm just showing fourempty signal bars, so you still don't

(08:07):
really have anything. I don't.No, I don't look at your signal
bar, not your WiFi because Iwas working on one WiFi this morning.
Oh well I've been on Wi Fi, I guess. So they said it
was a solar flare. Yeah,that's what they said, right, So
that only affects the us celgrid.Yeah, it's a solar flare. That
only affects the United States, Thatis correct, Grid, I just wanted

(08:31):
to make sure I had that rightonly only affects ours, right, that's
correct? Is that work, Steve? Do you got service? Of course
he does. Do you have allyour bars? All full bars? See?
Now mine is just says sos No, I have n bar nbar.
Yeah. So now let me askthis. Does that mean no one can

(08:54):
call you? Uh? You haven bars? So that means somebody can
call you? No, I havelike and half a bar. It's a
half of the baby bar. It'snot even the full baby it's yeah.
Cause if it means that no onecan call me, I am all for
this. I am so for itbecause I hate using my phone honestly.

(09:15):
I mean, I love my service, but I just don't like I'm I
don't like using my phone. Iget excited for regular mail. I hate
email. Remember when you were Idon't know, when I was in high
school and I would get email,I'm like, oh my gosh, it's
so great. I was so excited. I was a senior in high school
and that's when everything they still weren'treally sending the important stuff an email.
But I'm like, oh my guys, I got an email. Now I'm

(09:35):
like, oh my god, Igot regular mail. Someone took the time
to send you, like an actualpiece of mail. Was amazing. But
I just don't like using my phone. Like if someone calls, I'm like,
why are you calling? Why areyou calling me? It's like the
phone version of Sebastian Mando Skalko's Visitors. His whole bit on someone dropping into

(09:56):
visit, which is one of thefunniest things I have ever seen Maniskako talking
about that because he's like, youknow, back in the day when you
were little, you know, peoplewill come over and your parents will be
like, oh my gosh, it'syou. Why don't you come in?
And you know they had the intimate'scoffee cake that you know you're not you
trash people who live there aren't supposedto eat it, but you got the
stale muffins. But you know theybrought up. My parents totally did this.

(10:18):
It was either like a Sarah Leeor an intimate's coffee cake, and
they'd be like, here's the cakeand they'd put it on the coffee table
like they spend all day making it. Anyway, his whole bit on that's
great and I feel like that usedto apply to phones too, so I'm
really excited. That means so thatactually makes sense. But yeah, that
actually makes sense because I didn't myphone didn't ring this morning, and I'm
like, this is amazing. Idon't know what's happening, but I love

(10:39):
this. So they said it wasa solar flare that does not affect anybody
else anywhere in the world. Whatdo you think it is? Go ahead,
go ahead, just lay it onme. I think it's a sy
up. No, I think Ithink that I looked at the data and
it wasn't just cellular towers that wentdown to sell you the network. It

(11:01):
was internet wide. If you lookat downdetector dot com, you can see
that right around three thirty Central,three o'clock central this morning, you noticed
a bunch of reporting of down connectionand it was it was, like I
said, internet wide. So again, the list you can see with your

(11:22):
own eyes at downdetector dot com.But I don't know, it's it's hard
one and I were having a discussionthis morning about it, and there's a
bunch of different theories. Imagine ifthe government, you know, the government
that loves to you know, wantyou to register your guns and things of
that nature. Imagine if now theyknow where all the emergency communications are in

(11:45):
certain regions, because that's what wasbeing used while these communication you know,
avenues are down right exactly. Butthat's just one. That's just one part
of what we talk about. Orthe aliens are like, I've seen your
memes on top of this. I'mopen to the idea, but one and
I didn't talk about that this morning. Yeah, so I I our listener

(12:07):
Larry, who's out in Vegas.He's like, I'm old enough that I
don't care if my cell phone goesdown. I'm like, I'm you're I'm
positive he's probably gen X. Hesounds like a gen X guy. Larry
sounds like he's gen X because youjust don't have that much cynicism in your
tone, even in the written word, and not be gen X. I
just I'm just saying it. Soa number of things that we're gonna be

(12:28):
getting into today, Like I said, just some of this, we're gonna
talk about some of the twenty twentyfour stuff Texans, the crackdown on this
is part of that survey was tellingyou about that the crackdown on illegal immigration
apparently. So here's another part ofit. Voters want, like barbed wire
and arrest, one way bus trips, the whole nine yards. We're gonna

(12:50):
get into all of that. Andin Beta, or works hometown, there
was an illegal immigrant shelter that wasrunning literally a human smuggling ring. Where's
Bader where yet? Where's the Betaat? Where's he at? Our partners

posted daily from The Dana Show.Look. Early in my term, I
announced the major plan to provide millionsof working families with debt relief for their
college student debt. Tens of millionsof people on debt were literally about to

(18:18):
be canceled their debts, but mymigra Republican fans in the Congress, elected
officials and special lunchers stepped in andsued us, and the Supreme Court blocked
it. I blocked it, butthat didn't stop me. I announced We're
going to pursue alternative past for studentdebt relief for as many borrowers as possible.
And that's the effort that's been underwaythe last two years. It's not

(18:40):
my responsibility to pay off your debt. I'm so tired of this. Welcome
back to the program, Dana Lashhere with you. You can listen coast
to Coast. You can string theradio program Channel three forty seven Direct TV.
I have no idea what's going onwith my hair today. I just
had like a mad Max moment thismorning. I was like blanket and so
I don't know. I feel likeI look like I just emerged victoriously from

(19:02):
the thunderdome. Anyway, welcome.You can also find the newsletter over a
subtack chapter. And first, it'snot my responsibility to pay the debt that
you signed for. I am sotired of this stuff right now where you
sit over there giving me that lookfor I'm getting ready to get angry and
I'm trying not to because I don'twant to be like angry old dude radio.
I know, and somebody makes memad sometimes I love you know,

(19:23):
jumping in when you do that cutseven. Though, according to James Kleinburn,
we're not this isn't any money we'regiven over. But this isn't money
we're given away. Listen, listento what he says. Going forward,
every two months for the next fouryear, another seventy five thousand people who
will become eligible for this forgiveness.And I want to say to your listeners,

(19:48):
this is not given in about hismoney away. Yes it is.
Where do you think that money comesfrom? Oh my gosh, it is
given the economical literacy. I justwant to high weights around all these economically
literate people and throw them in thedepths. I'm done. You know,
people work too damn hard and thisBiden inflation economy in order to be told

(20:08):
that they have to sit here andpay for this academic aristocracy, all the
debt that these people willfully chose toaccrue. It is not our responsibility that
money comes from the taxpayer. Theyare assuming someone else's debt. If I
have to take your debt, I'mgonna take everything in your life. That's
ridiculous. That's what this is.They're demanding that everyone else. It's like

(20:30):
me saying, oh, I'm gonnago buy a car, but I don't
really want to pay the loan onit, so I'm gonna I want it
quote unquote forgiven. So that meansthey don't have all you all out there
pay it. You all are gonnapay it. That's exactly what this is.
And most of these people get somebs humanity's degree, right, That's
what it is. They get somestupid humanity's degree. They get something that
they're actually never gonna be able touse. It's so goofy, and you

(20:52):
you're on the hook to pay it. You're trying to pay for your kids
school, you're trying to pay forjust your bills, to keep a roof
over your head, and now allthese people expect for you to pay for
their very bougie degrees. And alot of this stuff is we talked about
before when we broke this down,when it came from CBO uh or actually
yeah, it was a grad schooland basically a lot of government workers debt.

(21:17):
I mean, he's it's a votebuying scheme. That's exactly what this
is. It's buying votes ahead ofthe election, buying votes one hundred and
thirty eight billion dollars. And he'spromising this going through California. I had
someone tell me, uh and Ialways get so tired of this, so
I just go ahead and preempt thembecause they say, oh, well,
you know, it's just you're you're, you know, so privileged, et

(21:40):
cetera. No no, no,no, no, no, no,
no no, no, we're notgonna we're not going to be doing this.
We're not We're not doing that.It has nothing to do with that.
And first off, the whole thingwith you know my I I when
I grew up, I was raisedby a broke single mother, and I
knew a poverty that most of thesepeople today complaining about their student loans have

(22:03):
never experienced. They have never experiencedit. Do you ever know what it's
like to actually be super hungry andthe only thing that you can afford to
eat is milk, gravy and biscuits, or not even be able to have
enough money to buy your own notebookpaper, or not have enough money to
get new shoes for the start ofthe school year, never ever having new
clothes and having to wear old handme downs, because that's just part of

(22:25):
the life that I lived. Ididn't have anybody pay off anything for me.
I didn't have any government money payingoff anything for me, and I
certainly didn't sit on my ass whenI became an adult and expected that to
continue. You wake your own opportunity, and all the people who say that
you can't, they're just too damnlazy. And that's the truth of it.
You're lazy. This is about youwanting a free ride on the back

(22:49):
of the taxpayer and I'm going totell you something. If you think that
this is the kind of country inwhich you can't do that anymore, then
maybe before you go cast your votefor another damn Democrat in twenty two twenty
four, you step back and askwhy that is and how has my vote
contributed to that. Maybe kind ofdo a little inventory here, do a
little wellness spiritual check. It's asinine. And then these people think a lot

(23:15):
of the people that are arguing forthis, they have the audacity to think
that you're being envious. Oh well, I guess you know. You're envy
is the coveting of your neighbor's moneyand expecting them to pay for the bills
that you signed up to pay forthat they didn't. I wasn't there at
the table when these people were signingthe loans for their college for their college
tuition. I wasn't there. Iwasn't invited. Did you get invited in

(23:38):
shareholder taxpayer? Because I sure asheck didn't. This is not an investment
of my tax dollars. This isrobbery. And again it's paying off the
debts of people who vote against whovote to raise your taxes, they vote
to keep your kids out of schoolfor pandemics. They vote to put DEI

(23:59):
in your kid's school, and insteadof having your children learn about programming or
a mathematics, they're learning about genitalia. That kind of stuff. It is,
it is the definition of irony forthese people to say that opposing it
is somehow selfish or envious. Andthis money comes from the taxpayer. There's

(24:22):
not just like some money tree outthere just doesn't come out of the ether
and just boom, appear in yourhand. It comes from the taxpayer.
But see, people like Joe Biden. Joe Biden's never works in the private
sector. Joe Biden is no JoeBiden's never generated wealth. He's never generated
money, he's never had to makepayroll, He's never had to do any

(24:44):
of this stuff. He is award of the state, a dependent of
this state. You know what,I was watching this thing it's called it's
this old documentary. It's called TheWild Wonderful Whites West Virginia. You've heard
about that right dancing outline. I'mlike, that ain't tap dancing, but

(25:06):
whatever. But they're big lefties andthey're all on government welfare. They're like
a very famous family in West Virginia. Everybody knows them, and you know,
it's like, I don't know,there's like some kind of like American
you know, Appalachia iconography or somethinglike that. I don't know. Anyway,
long story short, they are allon government benefits and all this stuff.
And I've read, you know,over the years, you know,

(25:27):
articles and stuff that act like,oh, well, they're on government benefits
and that's you know, that's so. And it's other Democrats that say it,
like they don't want to be associatedwith Democrats who built the system,
and they you know, they theythink it's you know, it's just the
class a. The Bidens are thesame thing. You realize that, right,

(25:48):
all of them working in the publicsector, except for Jim, who
once ran a nightclub before he'd gottenthe public policy, you know, because
that's that's the pathway for that.They're on the public sector. That whole
famed family's been working in the publicsector, have been working on government.
But they just put on airs andact like that's somehow better than being on

(26:10):
welfare and builking the system. Yourealize that when you've been in government that
long, you're just a glorified welfarerecipient. That's the reality of it.
So don't sit here and act likeyou're so much better than everybody else.
At least other people are being honestabout bilking the government out of taxpayer dollars.
You act like you're performing some sortof service. What service are you
performing? For real? I mean, that's the truth of it. So

(26:37):
I think about that. I mean, he's only ever worked in the private
sector. It's no different. It'sno different from any of this. So
where's this money come from? Theydon't know. They don't know where the
money comes from. They don't knowwhere the money comes from because they don't
know how it's made. They justthink, well, you know where it
comes from the government. You knowhow many people on the left say this

(26:57):
stuff, Well, where's that moneycoming from the government. It's the government's
money. You mean the government haslike a big pile of money that it
just generated by itself. Well yeah, and it yeah, it just takes
that money. Where did the governmentget that money? They printed off?
Oh? Oh, is that allthat works? All right? You see

(27:21):
what I mean. I'm not kiddingyou. I have literally had these are
grown adults who raised children versus terriff, and they drive cars next to you
on the road. That's terrifying.And they vote. This is the stuff
they actually think. I don't.Did they go to school? Good night?

(27:45):
Just amazing, absolutely amazing. Ohmy word. So a few other
things we got got it hit.We're gonna talk about some of this twenty
twenty four stuff. I read thisarticle. Let me pulled this up and
it's the New York Post. Iwas reading this piece and uh, this
was because, uh it's Nikki Haleystill obviously in the primary, and they

(28:08):
had this The media and some peoplein the Trump camp have been floating this
VP shortlist for a long time.I mean Trump was even on stage and
he was asked about it, andyou know, he rolled off some names
and DeSantis's name was one of them. And DeSantis was asked by New York
Post about it, and he said, he goes, people were mentioning me
as you know, as a potentialvice president. He goes, I'm not

(28:30):
doing that. He said, Iknow some people are really actively seeking it.
He says, I think there's ahandful of folks that are are auditioning
forty goes. I think my criteriawhen he's talking about a running mate was
different. Maybe than probably what DonaldTrump's criteria will be. He says,
my criteria was basically, I neededsome I need someone who can do the
job. If it came to that, and I would have been the third

(28:51):
youngest president elected, so chances areI'd probably be in pretty good shape.
But you never know what else couldhappen. He said, It's happened before.
He said, so you need someonewho could just go in day one,
no problem. They can do thejob. And he says, I'm
not sure that those are necessarily goingto be the criteria that Donald Trump uses.
He goes, I think he mightprobably use different criteria. He says,
I've heard that they're looking more atidentity politics. I think that's a

(29:12):
mistake. I think you should focuson who you think the best person for
the job should be. End quote. A lot of people are getting mad
at this, but I've literally seenhis surrogates and I've got just a ton
of screenshots. I almost said shotscreens, but you get it that where
they've been, like people in hiscamp have been floating that. So you
can't get mad at people for reactingto other things that literally the people in

(29:34):
his circle have gone to the keyboardand have. You know, even if
they're just exercising it in thought,they're doing it in public. They're speculating
on it publicly. So obviously peopleare going to react to that. And
that's all he said. And Imean he just responded to a thing.
Well some of the some folks losttheir ever loving minds, and oh my
gosh, are we ever going toget to the point where we not do
that. We're going to discuss thismore coming up. We also have a

(29:56):
bunch of other stuff to get into, as well as some foreign policy,

(31:25):
more than a job. Is aboutmore than a paycheck. It's about your
dignity, which I don't have any, so you know it's actually it's not
about more than that. That's whatmy dad told me. I went some
ice cream. Oh man, Iknow, I I just need to sit

(31:51):
here for a moment because this isthe state of things right now. Oh
my gosh. Welcome back to theprogram, Dana lash with you this very
weird day and coming at you liveblessedly from Dallas. I love not being
in the swamp. It's so overrated. Now the does he actually know because

(32:13):
he had never actually worked in theprivate sect his own brother, though,
Jim did. I sent that.You got some of that out for you
subscribers. It's over at substack.You got some of that out because I
sent you this piece. I includedthis link in your prep about Jim Biden,
the proto hunter. You know thathe apparently got a five hundred thousand

(32:36):
dollars loan. Now this this wasback when he was running his nightclub,
so it was some time ago.But still that's a big check, right
And five hundred thousand dollars now doesn'tseem like a lot, But in the
late seventies, that's a butt tonof money, right, Kane, that's
a lot of money in the lateseventies, even with Carter's inflation. Who
I guess inspired Biden, But itwas interesting because his brother Joe, who

(33:02):
was then in the Senate. Hesat on the Banking committee. Interesting how
that and I included huh, Iincluded a whole thing in here about all
this. It was this, there'sa couple of it was an old Washington
Post piece that got into got intoall of it actually referenced this old Washington

(33:25):
Post piece. But yeah, helike his brother, he was he's the
CD. He was a CED nightclubowner. Uh, and he somehow got
this five hundred thousand dollars loan.And there's you know this was is that
you can actually see the newspaper.He defaulted on this first Pennsylvania loan.
It was a five hundred thousand dollarloan, and the bank arranged to turnover

(33:46):
operations of the nightclub to this otherdude back in nineteen seventy seven. And
so then they ended up try thereended up being all these lawsuits. The
guy that was going to acquire theclub after the bank was going to seize
it for default. He ended upsuing the bank, first Pennsylvania and the

(34:07):
other bank they're trying to collect forthe loan to Biden, and Biden countersued,
and so it was all this otherstuff. But It's so interesting because
his brother was literally on the SenateBanking Committee at the time he got this
loan from First Pennsylvania Bank. I'msure that's totally coincidence, right, you
know, yeah, sure, coincidental. Yeah, just totally totally coincidental.

(34:31):
I'm sure. Just so you justso you know, the griff for these
guys goes back so long, solong, and they man, it's a
damning piece too. It is adamning piece. It was the Wilmington Evening

(34:51):
Journal that ran this story on Junefifth, nineteen seventy eight, and this
was like one of the first,uh instances that they were documenting of just
it's so convenient that his brother getsthis and his older brother who's in the
Senate is on this committee, andthen this happens and his brother's in the
Senate and it I mean, thishas been going on since literally Joe Biden

(35:13):
has been a government the entire time. They have been fleecing people and grifting
so that they can make bank onit. It is no different. Just
so interesting, is it not?Hmm? So that's if you're a subscriber,
you got that. It's just veryyou know, interesting, all right.
So in uh we've got. We'regonna touch on some twenty twenty four

(35:34):
stuff coming up into our second hour, and we're also going to get into
some pretty crazy media malpractice as well. We're gonna touch on some of just
some some things you should probably beaware of, Like, for instance,
you know, some of the survivorsof the Nova when uh October, the
October massacre that Hamas carried out againstIsrael. Nova survivors are filing a lawsuit

(35:58):
against the Associated Press because Associated Press. Remember I told you there were members
of their bureau over there that wereworking, photographed and videotaped working with Hamas,
and these images and videos are public. They're suing because their agency photographers
literally participated in the terrorist massacre.We're going to talk about that and more

(36:22):
coming up a lot more on theway. Stick with us second hour moments
away. Our partners they help bringyou free radio, so remember them even
when times are tough in this Bideninflation. It's our friends at gold Cot

mean embryos to me are babies,So I mean those create everybody IVF.

(37:50):
I mean I had artificial in sumlation. That's how I had my son.
So when you look at you know, one thing is to have to save
sperm or to save eggs. Butwhen you talk about an embryo, you
are talking about to me, that'sa life. Why does she have to
say to me? Why does shehave to qualify just be like, it's
a life, don't couch it withwell to me, no, it's just

(38:12):
that's to everyone, to science,that's what it is. Welcome back to
the program, Dana lash with you. There was Nikki Haley and she was
just she was being asked about thisruling is Alabama Supreme Court ruling saying that
frozen embryos are protected in sanctity oflife cases. And I don't know why
she kept going to me just no. But then but then audio sound by

(38:37):
five. Why does she backtrack it? She is like turn into the female
of a eight listen. Well,first of all, I didn't I mean
this is again. I didn't saythat I agreed with the Alabama ruling.
What the question that I was askedis do I believe an embryo is a
baby. That's the I do thinkthat the cian and embryo is considered and

(39:00):
on Oh my gosh, and soyes, I believe from my stance that
that is the difference is and thisis what I say about abortion as well.
We need to treat these issues withthis. Literally, they had it
was a state constitutional amendment. Theyadopted this back in twenty eighteen that i'veheld
the sanctity of on born life.And then there were multiple parents who had

(39:22):
frozen embryos that had been destroyed somehowat a reproductive clinic, and they were
saying that the wrongful death of aminor applied to the destruction of the frozen
embryos. And so that's what thisruling is. The crux of it literally
is whether or not you're recognizing itas a human life. So how is
she saying that she's backtracking on this. Stop it just be the brave,

(39:43):
empowered woman that you always brag aboutbeing and stick to a conviction. Don't
do this all well to me,No, that's just the way it is.
It's science. Good at night.I can't stand this that she back
tracked it because when she said tome Amriya's debate. Well they are what

(40:04):
are? What are they gonna be? Sofas the hell else are they gonna
be? They're babies? No,they're baseballs, Nikki, Like, what
else are they gonna be? Whatis with this stupid careful focused group language.
No, they either are or theyare not. I cannot stand.
Don't sit here and tell me abouthow empowered you think that you are,
because you're not. When you talklike this, you're a weak, a
double snakes broad. If you're talkinglike this, I don't care who you

(40:28):
are. Have the strength to standup with your conviction. God Lee.
And then she's like, well,I did not agree with that about when
the themster pame crow, And Isaid, I mean, I was agreeing
with literally the crux of the case, but I wasn't agreed with it because
that was ultimately that's was the issuethat was being debated in the case.

(40:52):
Oh my gosh, you see thisis what people being so ridiculously overly focused,
grouped and too careful. This iswhat happens because now you have this
kind of thing. This is sodumb. Now and now she's gonna spend
I don't know how long, liketrying to clean up after it, right,
trying to clean up after it andtrying to tidy up her mess that

(41:15):
she made with her language. Here, all she had to do is be
like, yeah, I think itwas right. That's what they are.
What else are they gonna be?That's what I would ask if a reporter
press me, what else is itgonna be? Just be like that uh
pole of a guy, Poli ofair guy up in Canada, eat your
apple? Be like, and whatelse is it gonna be? Well,
do you agree with their yeah?Yeah, and that that embryos or babies?

(41:37):
What else are they? That's thequestion you ask the reporters whenever they
push you with this stuff, withtheir stupid questions, Well, what else
are they? Like? Seriously,give me some potentials? What else do
you think they are? Well,it could be just some cells of what
your cells too? Is your lifeless valuable? Can I end you right

(41:57):
now? I mean, you knownow, I'm just you know, rhetorically
speaking, I'm just you know,just wondering. Golly, it's just so
dumb. I welcome back to theprogram. So we're at the top of
the second hour. Dana lash withyou and you can listen Coast to Coast.
You can stream the radio program aswell. Coming up in our third

(42:21):
hour, our friend Robert Salvador ishe gonna be joining us? Yeah today,
Yeah, third hour. Yes,it's gonna be in our third hour,
and we we're talking about the centraldigital currency stuff, central bank digital
currency. And the interesting thing aboutthis is because he's coming on on a

(42:42):
day when we've had these supposed solarflares, right, a solar flare that's
caused nationwide. It's a solar floodthat only affected us. Apparently it's very
So this is what who's this guy? Wait, I'm gonna be strike at
this. I don't want to justcite some rando. Okay, So here's

(43:04):
a meteorologist out of KSAT in SanAntonio and he says, yes, it
was a solar flare reported around midnight, and they're saying that it was related
to the outage because they can disruptground based and satellite based communications networks.
And the apparently FBI in DHS said, art we're already looking as to whether

(43:28):
or not it was a tech malfunctionor an at tech et cetera, et
cetera, and disruption and all thisstuff and so the it all came because
it was Usler Boost Mobile, ConsumerMobile, tub Mobile, Verizon, AT
and T, and they were allacross I mean mostly, I mean all
major US cities. I but Ihaven't been hearing anything else though, anywhere

(43:53):
else except the US. Right,So it's a really specific solar flare.
Right, Is that how science works? I don't think so. I mean
that's a super specific solar flair.Anyway, My whole point is that imagine

(44:16):
as it relates to Central Bank digitalcurrency. Imagine your finances. The cell
coverage is a variable now substitute inyour finances and your ability to do business
one thing, because one entity controlsit. We're going to explore that with
that because I just thought that's avery very interesting timing on all of that.

(44:39):
All right, So in Mediam malpractice, I mentioned this story to you
with regard to this lawsuit that's comingup, and families of victims from the
Nova Music Festival, who you know, you had tons of people murdered in

(45:01):
the October seventh terrorist massacre. They'refiling a lawsuit in Florida against the Associated
Press because they were saying that theAssociated Press their their agency photographers participated in
the attack. And that's I mean, there's their suing because they were they

(45:28):
I mean, this is there's alot of images and a lot of I
mean Lamonde even reported it. Theysaid the photo journal that all these photojournalists
were embedded with Hamas, and severalof them were. I mean, there's
some of them. There's a guywho's who is a reporter who I mean,
you had somebody with CNN. Therewas a U and it's not just

(45:49):
a p like CNN had a photographerand I think this is a photographer who
also freeliance with the AP, whowas partying with Hamas leadership on October seventh,
and he's got photos of himself gettingkissed on the cheek by the leader
of Hamas, by the guy whomasked who is the mastermind of October seventh,
and he was on the back ofhe was on the back of a
bike pictured holding a rocket heading outwith Hamas. So the idea that this

(46:20):
is I mean like baseless is no. Because this guy was a freelancer was
CNN and the Associated Press and CNNcut ties with him. Associated Press never
made a statement on it. He'sjust one of many. He is the
only reporter that has a picture ofhim being kissed on the cheek and partying
with Hamas and the Hamas mastermind ofOctober seventh. He's the only one who's

(46:44):
got a photo of himself being kissedon the cheek by this guy. But
the idea, I mean, he'son October seventh, he was on the
back of a bike carrying a rocket. He was pictured, there's a photo
online. There's all kinds of videoof other of these so called freelancers.
So they're suing and they're I mean, And there was a watchdog called Honest

(47:08):
Reporting that showed not just AP freelancersand CNN freelancers, but the New York
Times and Reuters that they weren't justthere embedded to document they were participating.
They were actually participating. Some wereinvolved in helping to kidnap Israelis. And

(47:37):
CNN did was the only one apparentlythat made the public statement that they were
refusing or that they were suspending theirphotographer. But the AP has never said
anything. So these are really legitimate, I mean, and the photos are
really easy to find online. There'sactually a ton of them of several different
journalists. But the guy who isall with Hamas. He's the one who's

(47:58):
the most photos of himself. Ithink the New York Post has a piece
on it, but there's I mean, honest reporting asks a legitimate question,
like what these reporters who were therelike. For instance, there was a
photo one freelancer had taken a photoand another freelancer happened to be in the
image and he was helping to holdup a fence and allowing all these Hamas

(48:21):
terrorists to come through. That's notbeing a freelance photography if you're literally aiding
Hamas and breaching a barrier to getinto Israel and kill people. This is
what I'm talking about. And sothere's a lot. There was one guy
and I had this in headlines awhile ago who was a part of this

(48:45):
as well, and he was likepictured on a truck when they had kidnapped
somebody. And another one who waspictured in a golf cart with somebody else.
I mean, this is just wild. There was also a guy who
took photo of this lynch mob thatthey were just brutalizing this body of this
Israeli soldier. They blew up thistank, dragged this guy out of the

(49:07):
tank. They named it their Imageof the day on their editorial database over
routers and this guy was you know, he was documenting it. But the
how did What gets me is howwere a lot of these freelancers in certain
positions before Hamas showed up and theywere able to photograph the beginning of the

(49:31):
attack, like this guy in thetank, Like the guy was already out.
He was already out, like bywhere the IDF soldiers were, and
he was able to get Hamas comingin. He was able to get all
of these images. He got allthese photographs that Reuters put in They call
them carousels where you can swipe throughall the photos. They had all these
photo carousels, and he has likenumerous images that were considered photo of the

(49:53):
day. And how did they knowwhere to go? Oh? Number one?
How do they know what time tobe there? And there had to
have been some kind of communication becausethey were able to get photos up pretty
quickly sending them through because you hadrockets, you had all kinds of stuff

(50:16):
going on, the body cams,the videos and all of this stuff.
I mean, I'm just I'm notthe only one asking that. Honest reporting
asked that as well. There's alot of questions to be so I think
it's a very valid suit. Itseems very I mean, it seems incredibly
valid. So coming up the there'san El Paso shelter for illegal immigrants that's

(50:38):
accused of running a human smuggling ring, an il Passo, you know,
right there next to Beto. Nowmy black Rifle coffee. I have to
tell you this. My husband wentout of town and I cannot work.
Are like, I don't know whatit is our Rube Goldberg a suppresso machine,
and he was like, don't touchit because I'll break something off.

(50:58):
I don't even know. I'm like, does this crank? Is this the
hand cranker thing? And don't evenknow what this says. All I know
is that he makes the coffee inthe morning and it's there and it's amazing.
It's black Rifle coffee every morning andit's usually like I have my tact
to squatch. That has been myjam lately, although I did have said
silencer smooth this morning. But anyway, long story short, I had to
drink Communists swill. It was horrible. I had like I had to go

(51:19):
and find I mean, I justit was awful. I wanted to die.
I thought it was just gonna eatthe beans. I was ready to
eat the beans out of the bag. It was so bad in my life
was horrible first world problems, Iguess, but not for me anyway.

time for Dana's quick five gas station. Heroin sounds like an album name.
It does. It's apparently a growingthreat, though an actual thing. In
New Jersey, health officials are warningit's dangerous and addictive. What is it?

(52:49):
Products containing I'm not going to saythis, right, tyanapit tyannaepteine.
Sure, let's go with that.Sounds right, Tyan nepetining that one can
cause severe opioid like effects, puttingkids in teens at risk. It's the
dangerous drug. Dangerous drug, theysay that it's caused. It's a spike
in illnesses. It's sold on theshelves of corner convenience stores and it's called

(53:14):
Neptunes Elixir and Zaza red gas stationheroin, two of the products marked as
dietary supplements. And they said thatit causes severe clinical effects and it's a
tricyclic antidepressant that has not been Itlooks like something. It looks like pot
juice. I don't know how todescribe it. Like it comes in a
little bottle and it says Neptunes Fixand it looks like, I don't know,

(53:38):
what have you. It looks likesomething that I don't know. It's
weird. I don't know how.It looks like something a hippie would drink,
like a little hippie energy thing.Right, I've never seen this before.
They have this in gas stations.What gas stations carry this? And
in New Jersey where you can't doanything, but you can get this kind

(53:59):
of what. I don't know anyway, So just be aware. You know,
the only thing I would look forwhen I was at a gas station
where the giant fudge rounds. Iall know what I'm talking about. The
biggins that you would it'd be likefifty cents. They're probably a lot more
now. That was when I wasin college. They were like fifty cents
or a giant one. You wouldget the box and they've shranked. They're
like fun size now, which isa joke. But you could get the

(54:19):
giant ones, like as big asyour face for fifty cents at the gas
station. Man. That was mygam was the pizza combos and the fudge
rounds and some gaytor raid. Whatgets your fudge round? What gets your
combos? What? Okay, Idon't know what's happening? A little no,
no, no, let's see no, let's go to this one.
Scientists found a link between brain imbalanceand chronic fatigue syndrome. That's apparently an

(54:42):
actual thing, chronic fatigue syndrome.They say that there's some sort of they've
been doing this overdue deep dive.They set into the biology of the condition
it has. Chronic fatigue syndrome hasa very long name that I'm not going
to get into. It's called myalgic and is the Elive Minute zine.
That's right, and it's very real. I've read about this because when I
first heard it, I thought itwas made up, and it's actually not.

(55:04):
It's like a neurological thing. Sothey've been doing they've starting to find
some links, which means that theycan now start looking at how to treat

not our problem and that we shouldlet the migrant family starve or freeze to

(56:35):
death. But that's not what decentMidwesterners do. That's not what leaders do.
We didn't ask for this manufactured crisis, but we must deal with it
all the same with our partners inCook County and the City of Chicago.
So that's a JB. Pritzker whosays that it's a manufactured crisis, the
problem at the border. He literallycalled it a manufactured crisis. And he

(56:59):
says that the uh that basically GregAbbott, he acts like Greg Abbot's just
sneaking across the rio, wheeling himselfacross and snatching up Mexicans and bringing him
over and going, well, he'shere illegally. That's that's what they act
like they're doing. I mean,it is a crisis. That's been facilitated,
exacerbated, and and completely grown beyondany kind of sustainable proportion by this

(57:23):
administration. So in that way,it's manufacturer. But the other the the
other thing that Pritzker's saying is that, well, you know, good people
don't do what they're doing at theborder. He's acting like, uh that,
I guess Texas is supposed to takecare of it. That's the Christian
thing to do, not for himto do anything, Not for JB.

(57:44):
Pritzker. You know who gets youknow, is six meals a day.
It's true, it's not for himto do. No, that's for Texas.
You know, how do you callyourself a Christian unless you can allow
the border states to do with allthis, all your policies for you.
That's what I mean. You're dude, you're the one who said you were

(58:06):
a sanctuary city, a sanctuary state. I mean, we're doing the Christian
thing and we're allowing you to uhbe be the hands and feet and uh
you know, serve in your capacityas a sanctuary state. You know,
that's that's what we're that's what we'redoing. Welcome back to the show,
Dana. Last year with you andbottom of this second hour. That is

(58:30):
still amazing to me. And hewent on and on and on because that
was he like went on for likefive minutes. That was just an excerpt,
but he's like he went on andon and on, and he was
saying that that, uh what didhe say that? Basically, he said
Abbot was a bad Christian because Abbotisn't just allowing people to come in.

(58:51):
So wait a minute, came whatif you and I want to go to
J. B. Pritzgro's house,he should let us in if he's a
good Christian. Yeah, he wouldn'tbe a good Christian. I know.
I should be able to just walkup in your house and do another hell
I want, because that's you beinga good Christian. Right Mmm, I
don't know. I think part ofme being a good Christian is to blow
somebody away who's trying to get intomy house. That's also very Christian in

(59:12):
my mind. No, you're supposedto allow whoever they, whoever wants to
to come into your into your sovereignterritory and property. Yeah, no,
that's a part of being a goodChristian. That's according to the Gospel of
J. JB. Pritzker. That'sweird. Because I still consider myself a
good Christian. It's so weird hownone of his words are actually incorporated into
the Bible like that. You know, he's such a such a disciple that
one. Thank goodness, I don'tcare about what comes out of his mouth.

(59:37):
Well, somebody does, because he'she's governor of Illinois. I mean,
you know, I think that.I don't know how, but he
is. He's I'm, oh man, I made of jokes right now,
just I have a great way sidebar. Only people who've ever played Dark Tied
are going to understand this. Butif he play as the psycher class and
you use too much of your powerdefending other people in all that stuff,

(01:00:00):
and you have to quell or you'llblow up. Sometimes I almost short circuit
because all these jokes flying into myhead at the exact same point, and
I have to stop and basically quellit so my head doesn't explode. I
mean, two of them, Idefinitely can't stay on air. The third
I maybe can. No, actuallyI can't anyway, I just overloaded with

(01:00:22):
jokes for a hot second. Alwaysfeel better when you play it safe.
I mean I don't want to,but I'm because I don't want Kine to
have a cardiac event because he's stressedout, and then Steve to fry his
head because he can't press the dumpbutton that many times. I'm just saying,
you know, anyway, she reallyI'm looking out for your health.

(01:00:43):
My brain almost died though, Ijust it just I had to stop myself
from saying it, because my braingets super excited and it's like I'm just
gonna override, just gonna spit itout. Yeah, I don't know,
but anyway, long story short,I love how they're all like, it's
so generous to make other people doour general for us. Look how generous
it is. That's not generous,that's just you being late. That's that's

(01:01:06):
so lazy. It's so lazy.Like I had someone telling me with the
student loan stuff, golly, it'sjust the economic illiteracy of people is is
frightening and also puzzling. Like someoneelse said, you know, people have
been responsibly paying on these student loansseveral times over, and you know,

(01:01:27):
they're paying taxes and and and theydon't get to opt out, you know,
and and they they didn't get toopt out on paying off the PPP
loans. Are you seriously going tocompare the PPP loans to student debt loans.
Okay, let's play this game.Can you please show me where any
business owners signed up to have thegovernment engage in imminent domain of the of
economic activity and basically sees the meansof producing and generating income. Show me

(01:01:53):
the contract that somebody signed on that, and then we can go forward and
talk, or you can eat yourhead and not make any other stupid,
brain dead illiterate comparisons. Again,I mean, it's very simple. That
is so dumb for people to doto compare the two. You're comparing the
PPP loan. I didn't want theI didn't want the PPP loan because I

(01:02:14):
didn't want the government to shut downin the first place. But we had
a Republican president and members of Congressand everybody else like actually work. They
demanded for a shutdown of the economyunder threat of penalty. I might add,
people were arrested and thrown in jailfor I mean, actually trying to

(01:02:37):
generate wealth, for trying to operatetheir business. They were thrown in jail.
One of my friends I got toknow her because of the story.
She's a hairstylist. She was tryingto open up, reopen her salon so
that she could you know, theycould have people come in and she could

(01:02:58):
cut in style hair, and theycould pay their bills, and they had
kids, et cetera. And theyshe was thrown in jail for it.
So No, the PPP loans,that was the government enacting imminent domain over
economic activity and seizing your ability togenerate income. They shut down your ability
to generate income, but they didn'tshut down their ability to collect taxes on

(01:03:21):
anything, your house, your property, anything else. No, they were
still getting theirs, but they weregoing to make it to where you couldn't
get yours. So don't compare thetwo because sitting down and signing up for
a student loan, no one forcedyou to sign up for a student loan,
no one forced you to accept it, no one forced you to accept

(01:03:42):
the terms. And lastly, asCane reminds, the student loan scam goes
against what the Supreme Court decided.I mean, you had a Scotus ruling
on this already that the President ofthe United States is disregarded. Democrat presidents

(01:04:02):
like doing that, so it's notthe same and it's not a bird.
People are like, oh, theywere. They're going to be freed from
this burden, freed from the burdenthat you willfully chose to enter into.
You thinking that you're freeing yourself ofthe burden, you're actually yoking other people
with your burden. And that's notthat's selfish. And a lot of this

(01:04:27):
is envious class warfare because people whoaccrue debt are mad at people who either
didn't accrue debt, not because they'rerich, but because they chose not to.
I sure as hell wasn't rich whenI went to college, but I
didn't I didn't agree to I didn'ttake any student loans either. I had
scholarships. And then what else,whatever else I couldn't worked to pay off,
had to work to pay for it. But you can make that choice.

(01:04:49):
Everyone can make that choice. Buthere's the last big thing. If
you're upset about paying for these studentloans, two and three times over all,
the people who are complaining the loudestabout this, all the people who
vote Democrat. You tell me exactlywhat democrats did. And this was back
what in twenty fourteen, twenty thirteen, what did Democrats do when it came

(01:05:10):
to consolidating the student hierarchy. Theyall voted for it. Elizabeth Warren included.
They voted to take control of studentloans, centralizing it, controlling all
of it from DC, jacking upthe cost of college, the cost of
everything. It is all directly relatedto that. My very good friend Glen

(01:05:31):
Reynolds has an entire book on thisthat's exactly what they did. They chose
to take it over. And whenyou have this guaranteed, you know,
for a stream of income and guaranteefrom the government to all these universities,
guess what they're going to be jackingup their prices too. It's all related.

(01:05:55):
So you voted for the people wholiterally made it more expensive for you
to go to college, made itto where you chose to willfully go into
debt more, and then now theywant to act like they're helping you by
yoking everyone else with the debt youchose to go into. No I didn't.
Am I going to make somebody elseparty it to my mortgage? When

(01:06:15):
are you going to start paying formy mortgage? Same thing? Oh that's
different, No, it's not.It's actually more important because it's shelter.
And the left also always says theright to housing, So you know,
so when are they going to startdoing that? When are they going to
start taking over people's rents and mortgagesand all that stuff. Share the burden,
right, If you can yoke someonewith your college education tuition that they

(01:06:38):
chose to not assume because they havetheir own bills to pay, then you
better expect other people to try toyoke you with their debt. Actually,
I think if you can't pay offyour student loan, I think you should
have your your degree forfeit. Itshould be based on condition of you.
Actually, it shouldn't be whether ornot you can. It should be not
just whether or not you complete theclasses and do all of that to get

(01:06:59):
your degree. If you're not payingfor it, then you should I think
they should not. I think theyshould withhold your degree because I'd rather you
have your degree withheld than assume thousandsof dollars of your debt because your deadbeat
ass can't pay for it. Idon't feel bad for people who choose to
willfully take this on vote Democrat andmake it harder for themselves. I don't

(01:07:20):
feel bad for that. People shouldfeel bad about putting that burden on other
Americans. That is shameful, selfish, sinful, and awful. Now this
new speaking of which, there's anew Biden regulation that manufacturing is warning is
going to wipe out a million jobs. The EPA recently finalized that air quality

(01:07:43):
rule, and according to a coupleof outlets, including Wall Street Journal and
Your Posts and others, the NationalAssociation of Manufacturers, they've been warning people
about this regulation, saying that theyknow Biden's going to wants to take credit
for what manufacturers have accomplished, buthis federal agencies have been actually working to
do that with it's called the NationalAmbient air Quality Standards or whatever they are,

(01:08:09):
rules that are stricter than what theyhave in Europe, and you can
really not even build new manufacturing facilitiesas a result. So it titles it
tightens the Rules for Particle Pollution PMtwo point five, which refers to the
particulate matter two and a half micrometersor less than diameter, by lowering the

(01:08:32):
air quality standard from twelve micrograms percubic meter to nine micrograms per cubic meter.
They said that the amount of businessthat will be lost from it,
and again stricter than Europe's even doyou see this? The United States is

(01:08:53):
pushing itself towards strangulation on manufacturing allthis other stuff. No other country on
Earth is doing it, but weare. It's his life mission to make
bad decisions. It's time for Floridaman. Well, here's one for the

(01:09:13):
books. I have seen some stuffbefore, you know, scammers trying to
get insurance money, things like that. This is really committed. A Florida
man chopped off his paraplegic friend's feetwith a hatchet and I'm a cob insurance
scam. Yeah, it's a Floridaman in Springfield, Missouri. Tory Thompson,

(01:09:34):
this guy found. Tory Thompson says, it's this case is the strangest
of his career. How Will CountySheriff's Office Lieutenant so. Back in November,
the Howell County Sheriff's Office issue thiscryptic press release to local media involving
a man who had supposedly lost hisfeet in a stage Missha mishap with a

(01:09:55):
brushawk uh and yeah, I meanliterally cut his feet off. But something
was amiss because the guy was asixty year old paraplegic and he had tourniquets
on his legs when he was found. How so they discovered that he was

(01:10:16):
not acting alone of a friend fromFlorida traveled to Springfield and they decided to
commit insurance fraud and chopped off hisfeet and the wounds. We're not convincing,
according to lieutenant. They were clean. Unnaturally, it wasn't gruesome like
you would expect from a brush hog. I still want to know how a

(01:10:41):
six year old paraplegic would be operatinga brushog, and then how his feet
would get caught inside brushhog. Andthen when they get there to help him,
he's got his feet wrapped in tourniquets. Sixty year old paraplegic, and
I don't know. They found hisfeet in a hidden in a bucket,
obscured by tires. Yes, Isaid that. So anyway, they finally

(01:11:05):
have closed out the case on this. They had what is it false?
That just a strange thing. Theythey committed entrance fraud. So the responsible
parties we were brought to job.We're prosecuted. But good it took long
enough. Oh my gosh, that'sjust a weird story. So this story,
I gotta I got more though,I made of questions, how did

(01:11:29):
you think that was a good ideawith a brushog to do that? A
Florida man with I don't know whatkind of haircut this is was arrested for
exposing himself at a make and metaphysicalsupply store and the police had to They
were called to come and stop RobertWebb walking in. He walked into the

(01:11:54):
store around five minutes before closing,said it was cold outside he needed to
warm up, and then he droppedhis breeches and exposed himself and then he
left the store and walked up thestreet. Police. This is apparently not
the first day that or first timehe's done this. They did arrest him.

(01:12:15):
His mugshot is disturbing. Yeah,walk into random businesses and drop your
bridges. You know that's this totallynormal. Sure, you guys remember about
that bill that I was telling youabout where you could kill crack bears and
self defense. Not just any bear, but a crack bear, you know,
like if it was seemed like itwas on crack and I don't know,

(01:12:35):
they call it the cocaine bear bill. So Floridians apparently this is I'm
not kidney. The Florida Senate votedon it. It cleared the Senate.
To defend yourself against if you like. One of the lawmakers, Jason Schauf,
said, you know the bears thatbreak down your door, they're in
they're in your living room, growlingand tearing your house apart. When you
run into one of those crack bears, you should be able to shoot it.

(01:12:57):
Period. Well, I agree,yeah, I mean, I just
still think you need to call itcrack bear. I just think, you
know, if your life is indanger from wildlife, you should be able
to defend yourself. I just thinkit's funny that crack bears is a part
of it. We have a wholethird hour on the way coming up.
Stick with us. Problem, though, I think is He also stood on
that stage when you pressed him,and he endorsed Biden fully. He said

(01:13:18):
Biden was an A plus president.He endorsed all of Biden's disastrous policies.
So if he were to run,he would get saddled with all those policies.
But then he'd have to answer forCalifornia. They have the biggest budget
deficit in the country, seventy billiondollars. They have homeless problems, they

(01:13:38):
have an exodus of people. Soin some respects, you know, it's
the worst of both worlds. Youhave Biden's policies and that bad record as
well as all the California dysfunction,and all we'd have to do is run
commercials showing that San Francisco poop map, and I think people would understand right
away's the San Francisco treat that's true. That's Governor Rhn DeSantis. He's talking

(01:14:01):
about Gavin Newsom. There who becausewho still may run? You don't know.
Welcome back to the show. Topof the third hour, Dana Lash
with you. Listen Coast to CoastChannel three forty seven Direct TV. The
video simulcas also found on YouTube,where discussion happens, Facebook, elsewhere the
I know that some people theorize thatit could be Michelle Obama who ends up

(01:14:24):
running, but I don't. Idon't think it's gonna be a Michelle Obama
if she. If Joe Biden stepsaside, it's not gonna be a Michelle
Obama. I just think that's sucha weird theory. I don't know why
that's such a theory for people,because she didn't want to even be first.
She didn't even like her job asfirst Lady. There's no way in
hell she's going to run to bepresident of the United States. But Gavin
Newsom has all the momentum as thenumber two to do that, and they

(01:14:47):
could, you know, he couldjust you know, have him as his
VP too and push Kamala out ofthe way. And I think that that's
a move that Joe Biden could beprevailed upon to make. I think that
they could convince him to do that. I think they could convince him to
make that move and be that tohave him as as have Gavin Newsom as

(01:15:11):
VP, and then if you know, something happens with Biden, he can
just step to the side and there'sno worry about it and all said and
done. But that's what it Gavinnews because Steve asked me this on break,
I think there's a lot to theNewsome stuff. And I think there's
a lot to it just because Newsomeacts like there's a lot to it.
I mean, this is a guywho's been, you know, really kind

(01:15:33):
of campaigning. He's been running ashadow campaign. I mean there's jokes about
it. He's run a whole He'sbeen running a whole shadow campaign. So
I really I do really think thatthere is something to that, and I
also think that he's in the bestposition within the party to bring everybody together.

(01:15:55):
He's got an impressive war chest.He comes he's the product of two
of the wealthiest family in California,one of the wealthiest families in the country,
and they're all friends. They allrun California. There's a group of
four of them. We've talked aboutthis before, but he has a lot
of connections. He comes from alot of money. He's got. I

(01:16:15):
mean, he is in a primeposition. They've been grooming him since he
was mayor of San Francisco to takethis challenge, to make this move at
some point, and he's all thatthey have. The only other person that
they could possibly prop up is GretchenWhitmer, and I think it's weird that
they had that whole FBI entrapment casewith Gretchen Whitmer. I really feel like
they set that up just to propelher to the national stage, because that's

(01:16:36):
true. It's what it was.You had a number of these FBI agents
that were involved, and they weretrying to set up this kidnapping scheme,
and none of the guys who weren'tFBI agents actually wanted to go along with
it. They had this whole entrapmentthing. I mean, I legitimately believe
that that is something that they hadplanned as a way to kind of expedite
her ascension to the forefront of theconversation in the United States. Otherwise,

(01:16:58):
nobody's paying attention to Gretchen Wimmers lookingup at the government. Nobody's paying attention
to her. It could be aNewsome Whimer thing. You never know.
They could force There's a piece thatI read about this and he pulled this
up. Uh there's I mean,it wouldn't be the first time that they
did it, but it was.It'd be messy the whether or not they
tried to replace him at the convention. There was a piece that's a that

(01:17:21):
was written about this. It's youknow, liberal trash. But they,
like I said, it's not totallythe first time this has happened, but
it's something that could happen. Imean, they could have some kind of
you know, they could force avote of the convention and they could they
could replace him. Uh, theythey could, because it's a you know,

(01:17:43):
they could they could they could shuthim down at the convention. There
was an Ezra a client piece inthe in the New York Times that kind
of touched on this as well.But I don't know. I mean,
he could withdraw. They could haveBiden withdraw. He would release his delegates
and then they would have, youknow, everybody would fight over the votes

(01:18:04):
of the to get the delegates.I mean, they could have that,
They could do something like that,but I'm not I mean that would be
they. I think it was likeback in I mean, i'll gout my
notes on this. I think itwas like back in the early nineteen hundreds
because you had Teddy, Roosevelt andTaft. They had a divided convention that
split the Republican Party and they foughtthat, and they had a kind of

(01:18:28):
a thing between Ford and Reagan andseventy six. It wasn't really open.
They had everybody, but like acouple of delegates were already in Ford's camp.
Remember Reagan lost that primary to Fordin seventy six, and he came
back, came back pretty strong,I'd say, But they've there are I
just can't imagine. I just can'timagine them getting to this point and Michelle

(01:18:53):
Obama coming out. I think itwould be a Gavin Newsom because Gavin Newsom's
done a lot of the groundwork.I mean, it's not enough just to
have the name. You have tobe able to show that you can fundraise,
that you're willing to fundraise, andthat you've traveled around and you've met
with people. And that's all Newsom'sbeen doing. I feel like he's been
traveling around the country more so thanhe's been in California. So there is
I mean, they could have likethis open convention kind of situation. But

(01:19:19):
the longer this goes on the waythat it is, the less likely I
think that becomes. And I thinkit will ultimately end up being Biden.
I mean, because this is notRemember it's not just Biden. It's a
lot of people in his inner circlethat are hanging on to that power adjacency
there too. Speaking of Biden,did you hear about that dog. I
feel like this is just so abusiveof this dog. I don't think that

(01:19:41):
the Biden should actually have them,but they their dog Commander. This was
like back last year, remember whenthe story broke and they said that commander
was relocated from the White House becausehe was just too aggressive and he bit
a Secret Service agent. Well,apparently he bit members of the Secret Service

(01:20:06):
twenty four times before he was finallyremoved from the White House. And it
was I was looking at this.I sent you guys an image of all
exactly where because it's bad. CNNhad this story that showed exactly what the

(01:20:29):
bites were and where they were.So apparently they had left arm, left
hand, left forearm, right lowerback, wrist, thigh, waist,
magazine pouch, and whether or nottreatment was received, Like apparently like medical
treatment was needed in a ton ofthese different incidences. They had, you

(01:20:51):
know, Camp David the right forearm. The I mean, they get into
exactly where it happened and how oftenit happened. I mean, so basically
from October second of twenty two toJune fifteenth of twenty three, they had
just tons of bites. And Imean the dog sounds like it was stressed.

(01:21:12):
And so much of this they weretrying to deal with public responses,
said CNN. They were trying tocraft away to talk about the issue.
And apparently like he ran and bitone Secret Service agent in his arm and
it was a deep wound and heactually lost this according to the documents started
to lose a significant amount of bloodfrom that arm. He had to be

(01:21:34):
treated by the White House Medical Unit. He got six stitches, he got
antibiotics, all this stuff, andhe was bitten while he was holding the
door open between the West Wing andthe President's Residence. So apparently Biden,
but that means Biden was involved.Who was opening the door for Biden or
Jill Biden when they were leaving theresident going to residents, going into the
West Wing. They said that theyjust kept happening, kept happening. Apparently

(01:22:00):
at one point there was an incident, this was October twenty sixth and twenty
twenty two on the White House groundsand Jill Biden apparently had him on a
leash and the dog lunged to bitebut missed. She regained control of the
leash. It sounds like these theywanted a German shepherd and they had no
idea how to deal with them.The Bidens raised their drug dealing, drug

(01:22:21):
doing kids. I mean, yousee all the mess that their kids are
involved in. Are you shocked thatthe dogs are any different? No?
I mean they said that at onepoint there was an incident where an agent
was opening the door to the Ovaloffice dining room for the First Lady,
and that the dog jumped on oneagent bit him on the left chest area.
It was a torn shirt to lacerations. A member of the Navy staff

(01:22:44):
at Camp David. They apparently,they said everybody has had an incident with
Commander the dog and they just couldnot get control of this dog. And
just like with the kids, theysaid that the dog's behavior was a sensitive
subject for the staff to raise withthe First family. Oh, you mean

(01:23:06):
the First family doesn't want to takeaccountability over the fact that they're incapable dog
owners, just like they were incapableparents every notice, how when when their
culpability is questioned, it's a sensitivesubject to raise with them. Good grief.
So it sounds like they didn't know, they didn't know how to train
and raise their dogs. Because Ihate this blame the dog thing. I

(01:23:27):
hate the blame the dog mentality.You guys know, I'm a huge dog
person. It's the owners. Imean, it comes down to the owners.
If you're not able to and Germanshepherds and Belgian malinwas and other you
know, really kind of working dogslike this, they have a lot of
energy they're super smart, and theyrequire devoted attention to train them properly.
And a lot of people get thesedogs like the Bidens without the ability or

(01:23:49):
interest to provide for them the kindof discipline and training that they need so
that they know where their limits areand they don't have to be fearful and
run these sorts of risks all thetime. So this is I mean,
it's just kind of par for thecourse with this whole family, is it
not. I mean, I feelbad for the dog. I also do.
I agree with Kanough. I trustdogs more than I trust people.

(01:24:12):
Dogs aren't wrong. All dogs loveme. But if my dog doesn't like
somebody, I typically probably would notlike them either. You know, although
my one of my dogs, Louis, didn't like a lot of people.
But if Roco didn't like you,then you probably were trash. Just saying
because Roco was a great judge ofcharacter. He really was. Yes,
my dog was, So that's hmhm hmmm pretty. I know. I

(01:24:39):
feel so bad for that dog.He's apparently living with family friends of the
Bidens and Delaware. Do you believethat I swear if they put that dog
to sleep? Do you believe itcan because we haven't seen proof of life.
I don't believe anything that's come outof this administration. I need proof
of life. So they're investigating.FBI and Homeland Security are quote urgently investigating

(01:25:00):
or not. This at and Toutage was a cyber attack for the people
who because and it apparently affected morethan just that. They're looking into whether
it was a cyber attack. Andmaybe someone was suggesting maybe this started actually
Tuesday, and one professor at Syracusesaid that the widespread nature looks like it's

(01:25:21):
a massive you know, denial serviceGDS on core internet Internet infrastructure. All
I know is, am I gonnabe able to play Warhammer later? Because
this is about me. I don'tcare if I can't use my phone to
make calls. I mean, Igot med kids and quick clots and tourniquets,

(01:25:43):
and I got all the rounds andI'm not gonna tell everything I have.
But I ain't worried. But Idon't want people to call me because
I hate talking on the phone ofpeople, even members of my own family.
God love you, but I can'tstand it. I can't. I
just can't. My kids are likeme, They also can't handle talking on
the phone. My husband enjoys totalking on the phone. We are completely
different in this relationship. I can'tdeal. So I'm fine with not being

(01:26:05):
able to be contacted. I'm okay. So do you think it's that,
I mean, a solar flare thatonly hit the US. It seems a
little unlikely. It is weird,right, It's weird that they would like,
even just recently, talk about this, this fear of Russia and the
satellite stuff. Mm hmm, justthrowing All I know is I'm not gonna

(01:26:28):
want to throw down, un list. It interferes with the things that I
like to do recreationally. And thenwe're gonna have then it's gonna be fisty
cuffs. I'm just gonna say,all right, we got more on the
way. It's very selfish. I'mnot gonna lie. And now all of
the news you would probably miss.It's time for Dana's quick five. We
were talking about how and this isa headline. The Burbs, starring Bruce

(01:26:49):
Dern and Tom Hanks Carry Fisher wasin. It is still the funniest movie
that's ever been made. Maybe nextto Bruce Blazing Saddles. Blazing Saddle is
probably number one. This is numbertwo, and the best care in it
was Bruce Dearn's Rumsfeld, So goodwatch it. You'll thank me. An
alarming study warns that too much proteincan lead to heart disease, just like
too much water can lead to drowning. Too much fire can lead to being

(01:27:13):
burned to death. They have thisis so dumb. I'm not reading this
because it's stupid. I don't care. This is dumb. You know what
moderation and just be smart, right, It's like don't, yeah, like,
don't too much of anything is badfor you. What I were gonna
have so to study for this?I'm more interested in this. The world's
largest snake was discovered by a televisioncrew. It's a twenty six foot beast

(01:27:38):
and it was as thick as acar tire, and it was filmed in
the Amazon rainforest. And I amI cannot believe someone got in the water
with this thing. That is thenuttiest thing I've ever seen in my life.
This thing weighs four hundred and fortypounds. It's three times the weight
of the average human, twenty sixfeet long, the head is as big
as a human head, and it'sjaw on hinges when they swallow stuff.

(01:28:00):
So remember that it's a northern greenanaconda and it was found by this professor
whose name is Freak vonk f re e K. Yeah, Freak.
It's like some dantvert stuff and it'sthe biggest of the species that they've ever
seen. It's insane and they gotin the water and swing with it.
And men and women's brains do workdifferently, scientists discover really for the first

(01:28:23):
time. Really, Robert Salvador joinsus next. Craving a daily dose of
intellectual adrenaline, look no further thanthe Dana Show podcast where curiosity meets courage.
By following on Apple, Spotify,or wherever you get your podcasts,
Welcome back to the program. DanaLash here with you. You can listen
coast to coast. You can alsostream the radio program watch the visual component

(01:28:45):
the simulcast on Channel through forty sevenDirect TV, also on YouTube. Great
discussion, Facebook, et cetera.We've been talking about just you know,
because it happened today, this solarflare, you know that happened and specifically
only the sun hates only the UnitedStates right now apparently, and everybody's like,

(01:29:06):
I was looking at my cell phone. I'm happy about it because I
hate talking to people on the phone. I hate the phone being used as
anything other than a troll talking deviceon social platforms. I have like a
half of the baby bar. Idon't care, but you know, I'm
joking. But at the same time, I mean, that's kind of a
serious thing. We had the headlineabout how now apparently the Department of Homeland

(01:29:29):
Security and do or not DJ butFBI and Department of Homeland Security are looking
into those as you know, whetherit's where we hacked, is it a
denial service like it could be ad DOS attack. They're still they haven't
said anything, but we are.We're literally earlier in the day told that
it could be a solar flare,And as you know, I'm trying not
to be a conspiracy theorist. Ilike to think of myself as pretty middle

(01:29:51):
of the road. It's weird though, how the you know flare if it
was one only just hit you know, the United States. So I tend
to think this may be as cyberattack too. Cain is like literally off
in no man's land with every conspiracytheory possible. No, it's true,
but you know what. I likethe balance though. I like the balance

(01:30:12):
because I need to be able to, you know, have that suspension of
disbelief, you know, actually bereal and take place now on top of
it. I was reading this theother day about Robert Robert Salvador, he's
been on the program before, andI brought him on to talk about how
you know, this this acquisition,this merger rather MasterCard in Capital One and
you know, the central Bank digitalcurrency and all of this stuff. But

(01:30:33):
then but then he tweeted, hehad tweeted that, oh, well look
at this. You know, nowwe have this huge issue with uh the
cell service and the solar flare,and solar flare apparently happening, and imagine,
you know, that's very much.And he compared it to the central
Bank digital currency just it's just avariable. So now I'm totally in conspiracy

(01:30:54):
Theory Land with Kine and Robert Salvador, and you can he's the CEO of
Digibuild. You can find him atRobert Salvador on x. He joins us
now via Skype. So I'm withCaine way on in conspiracy theorists Land right
now. If they're coming to getus, But no, let me I
just want to talk about this thiswhatever this is with the cell phone coverage,
it just is too The solar flarething just seems to be too convenient.

(01:31:15):
It seems like it is a cyberattack, and it when everything is
so centralized. Look how easy itis to knock out communications. Yeah,
I mean you hit the nail onthe head with that word right there.
Centralization, having a single point offailure for anything that's really important in society
is dangerous. Now if you wantto go down the conspiratorial route. You

(01:31:38):
know, it's weird because the samething that happened during COVID, we found
out all these random little breadcrumbs ofpeople who called that things would happen before
COVID. We saw the same peopleover the last year saying there might be
some big cyber attack and the worldshould prepare for a global cyber attack.
And then, to your point,it happens today. I saw some tweets
from people who couldn't access their bankand bank account because they had two factor

(01:32:01):
authentication on their phones, and whenAT and T went down, they could
no longer access that extra layer ofsecurity they needed to get in. So
it all kind of ties really neatlyput in a scary way into the risks
of central bank digital currencies. Andwhat happened today, you know, was
a perfect example. I'm about asecond away from pulling most of my money
out of all my bank accounts andshoving it and my mattress at this point,

(01:32:21):
because it's true, I mean,everything is so with everything being so
centralized, it just takes one attack, one push of the button, one
discriminatory practice against whatever your buying,against you because of what your ideology is,
or you can your consumer habits are. And that's all it takes,
which gets into this gets mean tothis Capital one and this Discover merger.

(01:32:44):
Today you had noted, you know, these consolidations into these mega companies.
You tweeted this. You know,every step away from smaller markets and businesses
moves us closer to acb DC.That's a central bank digital currency. And
you know we've already seen this withpurchasing firearms and FFLs off poration choke point
if you buy too much gas though, they could deactivate that. I mean,
that's something you know, again,one press of a button. With
everything being so centralized. It maybeten years ago, Robert, it seemed

(01:33:10):
are fifteen. Maybe it seemed kindof far fetched for some twenty to thirty
years ago, entirely far fetched,but where seems like we're a heartbeat away
from this now. Yeah, Imean absolutely, consolidation in the economy.
It happens, but they're supposed tobe you know, mechanisms antitrust and things
like that to keep it from gettingtoo dangerous or risky for the consumer,

(01:33:30):
for the citizens. But you know, in down economies and with the way
the US economy has kind of beenbuilt on debt and spending the last twenty
years, you're seeing these consolidations wherethere are becoming fewer and fewer options in
the banking and financial system. Evenright now. It's not a perfect system,
but the way it works is theFederal Reserve is the central bank of
the United States and really of theworld. But then they lend credit and

(01:33:55):
opportunities down the chain to medium inlarge banks that extend credit to the consumer.
So you end up with a bunchof credit facilities, credit cards,
regional banks, things like that,and so it's still kind of hard to
fully censor someone or lock them outof the system. But as you're seeing
more and more consolidation. It makesit easier to bring in one single database,

(01:34:17):
one single place that rules them all, and that's what you would have
with the central bank digital currency.Essentially, every person would have their own
retail account with the Federal Reserve,and they could turn that off at any
moment if you tried to purchase afirearm or the next time they want to
lock you down during COVID. Theydon't ask you or suggest that you do

(01:34:38):
it. They just turn off yourpurchasing power. And so that is the
risk of losing any form of decentralizationand having one single point of failure.
To your point, you also madethe point of which I think is it's
kind of reminded me of a syntaxprogrammable spending. Tell me about that.
Sure, So you know, oneof the issues in the economy people are

(01:35:00):
worried about right now, or economistsare worried about, is if people save
and don't spend during a period ofvery high inflation, you don't have growth.
Then you have deflation, where you'reessentially having inflation while the economy shrinks
or stagflation. And that's a bigdeal. So what you could do with
programmable money and what some of thebig powers would want to do is make

(01:35:23):
it so that it punishes savings.So they could say, if you have
some minimum threshold of money in yourbank account, if you don't spend it
or get below that threshold by acertain date, they could tax you on
it, or even more sinister,like we saw a little bit during COVID,
they could get the public addicted tospending by offering essentially free money,

(01:35:45):
helicopter money, but you have tospend it within a certain time. And
it's easy to think, oh,that's great, they just gave me sixteen
hundred dollars, But then they addthousands and thousands of worth of inflation.
So you saw that during COVID theyprinted almost eight trillion dollars. They sent
you sixteen hundred dollars, and theygave the rest to rich people and everyone
else dealt with the inflation. Soprogrammable money can make it where they can

(01:36:10):
penalize you for saving, or addicteveryone to inflation and say hey, we'll
give you this money, but youhave to spend it by this date.
And again you just end up witha bigger and bigger, more centralized,
more powerful government, and that leadsto communism. Socialism, you know,
all the bad things we talk about. We're talking with Robert Salvador. You
can find him at Robert J.Salvador on x He's the CEO of digit

(01:36:30):
Bill. It's a top AI company. Speaking of AI and I want to
get in actually before I jump intothat, there is a way to deal
with this federally, and I knowFlorida has taken some steps to ban outright
ban or to mitigate the problems thatthis stuff causes. At the state level.
I mean, it's a lot easierto do at the state level.

(01:36:53):
I think I don't know if youwould ever be able to get everybody on
the same page federally to get somekind of defense like this past. Yeah,
it would be very difficult, especiallywith you know kinda how misincentivized DC
is. There's a lot of bigbanks, very generous, misincentivized. Yeah,
exactly. But I do think youare seeing some movement from leaders like

(01:37:15):
Warren Davidson Thomas Massey who have mademotions to get rid of this. I
believe there's a bill in committee rightnow to ban CBDCs. To your point,
though, it's great to see andI hope to see more at the
state level, like you saw Governorde Santis do in Florida banning CBDCs.
What you can also do not justbanning the CBDCs. You can make it
easier for smaller community banks state banksto get the charters they need to essentially

(01:37:41):
drink from the faucet of the federalreserve. And actually, again Florida is
in the process of exploring a billmaking it easier for those central banks to
get their charters. So at theend of the day, it comes down
to decentralization. We want to decentralizedpower away from the government in most cases,
or at least make it semi decentralized, and that will be best for
the American citizen, best for theconsumer, and then the free market will

(01:38:05):
push forward solutions. You never wantthe solution coming from the top down of
government. As you alluded to,our government doesn't have a collecting problem.
We have a spending problem. Sothey don't need to see everyone spending to
collect more taxes and do more.They need to check their spending. And
so that's why we should be againstcbdc's Robert, your company is an AI

(01:38:27):
company, and there's definitely a lotof value in AI there's also a lot
of I think, potential misuse inAI, especially when you consider what's baked
into it, which we've been seeingthe past few days as everybody's been testing
out Google's AI and grock on Xand these others. I mean just asking

(01:38:47):
them, you know, basic thingslike show me a portrait of George Washington,
or show me this or that,or can you even asking anything that
looks like it's politically themed? Someoneasking about Tanam and Square and Google's A.
I couldn't even explain that because itwas too politically sensitive, or there
were I think the phrase used wasthere are many interpretations which I thought was
wild. I feel like we arepast the point of caution and now we

(01:39:11):
have to really do I mean,we have to take some serious action because
I think that the damage has alreadybeen done. All of the people that
have been developing this, like Isaid, that have been baking this in,
They've had a lot of time todo this. We're still going to
find out the extent to which it'sI mean, how far the bias goes
in AI. But I don't know. I don't even have the slightest idea

(01:39:34):
how to even counter what's already there, what's already established, and what's already
taken hold, not just in culturebut now probably also in government policy.
I mean, AI is used inso many things, and that's the big
fear. How far are we downthis path and how much damage has already
been done? So it's like athree part question. And then what even

(01:39:54):
are what's the remedy? Yeah,I mean that's a great question. I'm
glad you call it out because wehave to tackle this head on. We
can't ignore it, we can't beafraid of it. As you mentioned,
you know, Elon Musk tweeted lastnight about how woke Google Gemini is.
To your point, they prompted itto show American leaders or early founding fathers,
and they showed them as all,you know, either Indian or African

(01:40:16):
American or basically just wouldn't show awhite person and like asking, so it'd
be like asking, you know,Gemini, can you show me, you
know, like a typical Japanese samuraiwarrior and it shows you like a five
foot four inch, blue eyed,blonde haired woman. I mean, it's
just it's exactly, Michael, Andthey show you a picture of Rob Salvador.
Come on, it's not that's justnot accurate, and so it's good

(01:40:36):
that this is being called out becauseit is very dangerous. A lot of
these big tech companies that have becomewoke have a very big head start on
the AI and AI is not goingaway. It is here. It's going
to help cure cancer, it's goingto help markets, it's going to help
make the US more efficient. Andmost importantly, probably Democrats are already using

(01:40:57):
it. They're using it in politicsto voters, they're using it in get
out and vote situations. There areso many things that can be done.
So as conservatives, we have totackle this problem head on. We have
to lean into AI, not fearmonger around it, not try and ban
it. And to the third partof your question, I think what we
can do is invest in these technologies, invest in entrepreneurs that do it.

(01:41:19):
Get red states to take the lead, like Florida, Texas that have these
big economies, stop letting Silicon Valleyhave the dominant market share of all these
new technologies. AI is here.We have to build it. And I
am slightly excited because you know,one of the reasons we released our AI
poll was to shine a light onthe fact that this can be brought into

(01:41:43):
the conservative circles, into these redstates where AI kind of like Elon Musk
is trying to do with Rock,can be uncensored and actually help with things,
can give you information without trying tocheck your opinions at the door.
So I think the biggest thing Iwould say is just don't hear it,
understand it, don't create a committeethe fearmonger about it, you know,

(01:42:03):
put out plans to figure out howdo we invest in it in a safe
way, how do we get youknow, non wo entrepreneurs to build their
own versions, like Elon Musk.So that's a great point. We could
take steps to do that. That'sa great point. And yeah, I
think that's what it'll take. Yetthat the answer to abuse isn't misuse,
it's proper use and making sure thatwe're funding and putting power behind that proper

(01:42:26):
use. Robert J. Salvador youcan find him at that name on xdigitbil
dot com. Always a pleasure,Thank you so much, enjoy talking to
you. Thanks as always, Dana. I appreciate you follow Dana on Apple,
Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts, because knowledge is your ultimate superpower,
and the economy is growing. It'sgrowing, jobs, income across the

(01:42:49):
board. We have the most advancedeconomy of any major nation in the world.
Why is he Why is he likethis economy? Well, he's so
weird. His these are not He'snot a serious person. He's not a
serious nothing. I don't know.It's the president he was I guess trying

(01:43:15):
to convince you about I don't knowsomething about the economy. We were talking
about this on break By the way, if you've not seen it, it
is literally the funniest movie ever made. It's the Burbs. It's an old
school movie. I was like,I think it was in junior high when
this came out our elementary I can'tremember, but I remember being really young
and I went to the theater withmy mom to see it. And it

(01:43:35):
has Tom Hanks, Bruce Stern.Bruce Tern's character is my favorite character,
and it Corey Feldman reps gen Xro Well in this film. The guy
who plays Art is hysterical. KerrieFisher, Tom Hanks, Oh my gosh,
it's just hysterical. It is oneof the funniest films I've ever It's
so quotable and it is so hysterical, and it's it's totally fine for the

(01:44:00):
whole family, as long as youdon't mind an occasional damn here or whatever.
You know. I mean, it'syou know, like a water dam
what's wrong with you people? Butyeah, that's that's literally it. There's
I don't think I don't think there'sa single F bomb in it. It's
like, by today's comparison, it'sthe most wholesome thing ever. It's not
politically correct. They don't even that'snot even a consideration. It's just a
funny movie. And oh my gosh, you guys have got to watch it.

(01:44:25):
That's your homework assignment. You gotto watch the Burbs. I promise
you. It is the funniest movieyou will ever see. And Bruce Stearn's
character is the best. So good. All right, today's stupidity came.
All right, it would be ourpresident. You know, don't like calling
him stupid all the time. Buta few weeks ago, you do,
no, I actually do a fewweeks ago, he said he'd done all

(01:44:46):
he could do at the border.Right, Congress has to do something.
But listen to what he says today. Listen to this. We're an executive
authority to do. Oh I coulddo. Give me the power I've actually
the very day I got it off. Give me the border foot gold.
Give me the people, Give methe people to judge. Give me the

(01:45:08):
people who can stop this and takeit work thout. He's considering executive action
now, when three weeks ago itwas impossible. Yeah, how did it
even do some of the first thingsthat he did about immigration his first week
in office. All right, folks, that does it for us Today,
back tomorrow with you to end theweek. Have a great night.
