Absurd Truth: Attempt Number 2

Dana breaks down the history of Democrats calling for political violence as a second assassination attempt of Donald Trump occurs at Mar-a-lago. Meanwhile, the left blames Trump’s rhetoric instead of their own history preaching anti-Republican violence to their followers after the second attempt at his life.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dana Lashes of surd Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech. It's
his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Man.

Speaker 1 (00:14):
Clay County, Florida, So Florida driver driving erradically, swerving all
over the road, so much so that other motorists were
calling him in to the police, and so Clay County
deputies arrived. They caught up with a truck. They watched
it as it narrowly missed parkr swerving in and out

(00:37):
of lanes, and the Sheriff's office said he was weaving
all over the road and almost caused an accident before
we pulled him over, and the driver, twenty three year
old Derek Foreman, Well, apparently police noticed that tuck right
inside of his shirt was a squirrel, a live one,
like a live, actual squirrel. Norman did not deny the

(01:01):
fact that he was driving erradically and that he almost
hit pedestrians and parked cars. He looked right at the deputy,
dead in his eyes and said the squirrel was eating
me and that's why I was swerving. Now, they apparently
got the squirrel and then they conducted the sobriety test
and the breathalyzer confirmed that the guy was drunk and

(01:23):
that it couldn't have just been the squirrel. Now they
got the squirrel. He was unharmed and released into the wild.
But apparently the driver was arrested on the spot and
charged with DUI and reckless driving a sup first. I mean,
they noted he didn't really have any injuries, So I
don't know if I take that seriously. This Fox thirty

(01:45):
five Orlando, a Florida man in Davenport, Florida, a former
employee at a gas station, was doing upskirt shots. According
to Polk County Sheriff's Office, they responded to a circle
k a woman reported feeling someone hit herner lower back
while she was using self checkout, and she looked behind
her and said a man was walking away. She told

(02:05):
deputies that she thought that the man tried to take
a photo of her. They used surveillance video and they
saw that the guy, Christopher Kilpatrick, not only was like
a total total pervert and was, you know, like trying
to expose himself and he apparently did hit her on
the back, but he's done upskirt photos of women. His
cell phone was seized and he's got he had tons

(02:26):
of photos and videos of that, like all these upskirt shots.
They said, listen to this. They said, according to the
Sheriff's office, that he has done this to between three
hundred and four hundred women, including juveniles, so you're talking
about young girls.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
See.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
He's been arrested and bookedne to jail on several charges,
including exposure of sexual organs and simple battery. Now they're
still investigating to see who else that he's pul Kunny deputies,
who else this guy has targeted. And they don't know
if all of the women, like this woman, knew whether
or not that he had done it. But they're trying
to get in touch with victims and they're further investigating it.

(03:02):
That's crazy. I don't know why anybody would would actually
want to do this because this seems super dangerous. A
Florida man is accused of driving or operating an excavator
while totally drunk Banel, Florida. He was accused of making
threats and trying to operate heavy machinery at a scrapyard.
Flaker County Sheriff's office so they responded to a call

(03:23):
about a verbal dispute and threats involving a drunk dude.
When they showed up, they found John Kassner, sixty two
years old, behind the controls of an excavator. He was
totally impaired and completely unable to operate the machinery safely,
so he got a dui. I did not know you
could get a dui being drunk behind the controls of
an excavator, but you can, and he got one. He

(03:45):
was taken into custody and chargers were levied. Its wild.

why there aren't uprisings all over the country, and maybe
there will be. People need to start taking to the streets.
This is a dictator. You know.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
There needs to be unrest in the streets for as
long as there's unrest in our lives.

Speaker 3 (05:11):
Enemies of the state, show me where it says that
protests are supposed to be polite and peaceful.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Do something about your dad's immigration practices effectless home? How
do you resist the temptation to run up and wring
her neck? Biggest terror threat in this country is white men,
most of them radicalized up to the right. I thought
he should have punished him in the face.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
They said, even if you lost, he insulted through why
he's on the escalator and called Mexican's rapist and mrs
He said, well, what do you think of to done so?

Speaker 3 (05:40):
I think you should have.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
Punched him in the face and then gotten out of
the race. You would have been a hero. I'm like
to punch him in the face. I should if we're
in high school, I take you behind the gym and
beat the hell out of hunch. Punch some people in
the face less time. I mean, that's pretty amazing. And
by the way, out of all of those Duff was
the only one who said that, I shouldn't have said
what I said. By the way, out of all of

(06:00):
those people, he was the only one who said that
who went back and was like, yeah, I shouldn't have
said that. I shouldn't. Welcome back to the program, Dana
lash with you bottom of this third hour. And I mean,
if you want to have a conversation about rhetoric, the
left needs to look the stuff and happened. The stuff
that's in Springfield, Ohio happened, regardless of whether you like
it or not. If you don't like it, then tough

(06:22):
it happened, but it's what is a conspiracy theory asenine
fruit basket is to claim that all these people are
lying about it and then act like that's a violent
that's some example of violent rhetoric. That justifies what happened
over the weekend with trump second attempt at assassination. I mean,
good grief, this is crazy. I'm why are people on

(06:42):
the left not taking this more seriously? You had a
riot at the Capitol in which the only person that
was injured because of it was a woman who was
shot by a capitol policeman who was very, very trigger happy,
and even though there was a whole swat team behind
her and they already knew she didn't a threat. But
I digress. And they act like that is worse than

(07:05):
nine to eleven. They don't act like it. They say
that it is worse than nine to eleven. And yet
you have two now, two people who try to shoot
and kill Trump, and the left is just they shrug
their shoulders and they act like he deserved it because
they disagree with him on policy, which tells you everything
about what the I mean, the left, I guess thinks

(07:25):
that that's acceptable. It's wild, absolutely wild and this is
what we're dealing with. That's the rhetoric. That is that
rhetoric has been out there, and Democrats have been doing
this for years. I first got into broadcasting in two
thousand and eight, and since that time I have played

(07:48):
countless clips on my show of the Left saying these things.
The way that they hyper overreact whenever anyone on the
right so much just pushes back a little bit, they
lose their minds. When I told them at a sea
pack in what was it, twenty eighteen that the news

(08:12):
network they like the sadly the ratings that come from
mass casualty incidents, and they were apoplectic. CNN wanted to
drag me over the cols for it, and they demanded
to They were gonna lecture me. I wasn't gonna have it,
and I pushed back on them twice as hard. You know,
these are people who constantly act like and say on

(08:34):
their network CNN, MSNBC, everybody. If they don't disagree with you,
you must be a domestic terrorist. If they don't agree
with you, you're terrorist. If they don't like your policy,
then you are a Nazi. And if you support Second
Amendment rights, you have blood on your hands and all
this other stuff. And they talk about, you know, punching
back twice as hard. And you have Chuck Schumer speaking

(08:56):
in front of the Supreme Court talking about the Supreme
Court justices and naming Brett Kavanaugh. And then two weeks
after that, you got a guy's on Kavanaugh Street gonna
go kill him, and he's arrested. And I mean, they
never ever put two and two together. And all of
these people have been doing this have been on the left.
The guy who tried to try to assassinate a Supreme

(09:16):
Court justice on the left. The guy had tried to
assassinate a ball field of congressional members from the left.
The guy who beat up and tried to kill rand
Paul because he wanted to beat him to death from
the left. The guy who tried to shoot and kill
Trump the first time in Pennsylvania on the left. The
guy tried to shoot and kill Trump again on mar

(09:38):
A Lago on the left. They're always on the left.
That's a common denominator. Maybe Democrats need to check their
words a little bit here. This is it's the diminishment
of it is just really troubling for the health of

(10:04):
I mean it, just what is wrong with your souls? Here?
This is a headline from Politico. Listen to this, a
real headline. Republicans outraged over possible assassination attempt. Oh my gosh,
this is wild. Denunciations of political violence from across the

(10:28):
political spectrum quickly gave way to partisan finger pointing. What
do you mean? This is not a Literally Trump was
shot in the head and somebody was murdered, and then
the left is what good grief? By the way, you
know that this killer on his social media account he

(10:52):
used the exact same talking points that Harris has used.
They have all there's a lot of screenshots. I'm not
going to get into all of it. There's some screens
out there. Mean you, how do you note there's violence
against the right and then you downplay it and say
that Republicans are outraged? You shouldn't there headline be why
isn't everyone outraged? I question someone's devotion to the principles

(11:21):
of this republic and their American ness when they don't
ask that question. It's not something that only Republicans should
be outraged by. People who are truly outraged at the
threat something like this poses to the health of the
republic are outraged because these are people who prioritize the

(11:44):
health of the republic over partisan party lines. Everybody should
be outraged. People like the Vinmins, that Alexander Vinman guy
and his lunchbox wife who was shrugging off and was
saying that she just didn't really care, She's completely indifferent.

(12:06):
She had to delete her tweet. These people are traitors
to this republic, and I mean that in that very
sense of the word. You can be a pencil pusher
all you want to, but when you can't stand up
for the principles that hold this republic aloft, you're part
of the problem. That's why we're in this situation that
we're in, because the Left got so bad at policy,

(12:28):
and they got so bad at persuading people that they
decided that stuff like this, you know, weaponizing the Occupy
Wall Street and the trans Tifa and everything else in
Antifa and all this other stuff, that that's acceptable as
a form of electioneering. I've seen this happen since I've
been doing I mean my whole career. I've watched this happen.
I've been there, I've seen it. Republicans outrage the fact

(12:51):
that that's a headline. That's an anti American headline. It
is an anti American sentiment for everybody to not be outraged.
I wouldn't want anyone to do that to a Democrat elected,
a Democrat in office, because you're concerned about the republic,
and the health of the republic shouldn't stop at the
political affiliation of the person occupying the seat or the

(13:14):
person running for the seat or trying to get onto
or on the ticket. You care about the health of
the republic and you recognize the threat that something like
this poses to the stability of said republic. And the
people who don't care about that, well, they don't care
about this. I wouldn't want to see that happen to

(13:34):
Biden or a Democrat who was elected into office. Even
if I didn't vote for him, I still wouldn't want
to see that because we have a history of bloodless
transfer of power. It's what makes the United States so
unique in our founding on republic construct using democratic principles,

(13:57):
democratic processes. It's a brilliant structure, and it's threatened when
people do not value equally the lives of people on
either side of the isle. And Democrats can get mad
and point fingers at Republicans all they want to. But

(14:18):
I have watched it grow and turned the Democrat Party
into literally a bunch of soulless skexies, and sadly, I've
watched it affect many on the right who think that
they have to match them in soullessness in order to compete.
That's a consequence of the immorality that the left has

(14:42):
preached in the war that they have waged. Culturally, is
that that virus spreads. But the fact that everybody is
an outraged or that political would say Republicans outraged over
everybody should be outraged, and I think it's Unamerican to

(15:03):
not be. And if people aren't, you should question their
loyalty to this republic. The loyalty to the Republic is
called into question when people can't be outraged over the
attempt on a former president and maybe potential next president's

(15:23):
life because of partisan party affiliation. Just that's the world
that we're in now. It's sickening. Now, a few other
things to touch on. I've got some stuff you'll want
to sign up over at Substack. There's going to be
a couple of there's a couple of things that I'm

(15:44):
working on about this piece that has some angles that
I think you need to kind of keep on the burner,
especially the investigation into this. I made mention of this
earlier with DeSantis. That is something that you're going to
want to watch because he's marshaling two state agencies to
get involved in this. And he acknowledged, and we played
that audio. We don't need to play it again, but
we played it earlier. He acknowledged that, yes, it's you know,

(16:07):
it's a federal investigation, but also he's looking at the
two different departments. One's like an investigated bureau within the
state of Florida and the others Highway Patrol. They're going
to be involved in this too, he says, because there
have been some state train there's some transgressions of state
law with us. He's every right to do so. But
it was a very very very amiable, subtle, but yet

(16:30):
iron fisted jab you're not going to sweep this under
the rug. And he's bounded determined to keep this in
the news so that Democrats can't gloss over it like
they keep trying to do with Butler County, and he
wants to make sure that some answers come out in
a timely fashion with us. That was a very That
was a boss move that he just made. There watched
that because I noted that. And then will Will snyders

(16:54):
he's the police, he's the sheriff with Martin County, and
he was very nicely with his audio tune. We don't
need to play it again, but we talked about this
our first hour. He had come out and said that, yes,
you know, we don't know. A reporter asked him whether
or not the guy had any connections to the area,
and Snyder said, no, we don't know. And then he very,

(17:16):
you know, very delicately said, you know it is it's
you know, crazy to think that this guy could come
here and you know, how was he How was he
there for as long as he was?

Speaker 2 (17:24):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (17:25):
And I'm sure I know that Secret Service wants an
answer to that, and they're investigating to find out. He
put it on Secret Service. That was him saying, you're
not doing what you did in Butler County, and you're
gonna blame local law enforcement because we don't run like
that here. You're not doing it here. He put it.
Before could even get started. He got in front of
it very smart, super smart move. So already they're not

(17:48):
going to be caught flat footed on this, and you can.
I think the response is going and the investigation is
going to be quite different from this compared to Butler County,
and I think that all so can be a determination
into how to change secret service top down folks over
at Celtech, the P fifteen, this is an ideal concealed

them Dana sent you, And now all of the news
you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's quick five.
So the Hill asks whether or not a recession. Can
a recession be the election's October surprise? I mean that

(19:40):
wouldn't be beyond the realm of possibility. I mean, think
about it. It would be horrific news for Kamala Harris though. Uh,
if you see a further jump in unemployment, which is
already up to four point two percent from three point
seven this year. In fact, there are economists who are wondering, Okay, well,
look it's bad. Uh and you could see that. You
could actually see that by fall by maybe before the

(20:03):
end of October. We'll wait and see none of the
good news though, is it?

Speaker 2 (20:07):
Ever?

Speaker 1 (20:07):
I don't know. Also this, let's see a uh, a
smelly penguin won New Zealand's hard fought bird election. Okay,
in Wellington, New Zealand, they have a competition for bird
of the year, and so it's the Hoi ho or
yellow eyed penguin apparently won the fiercely fought election. It

(20:31):
is an endangered bird and apparently it smells very bad.
And that's pretty much it. But uh, there's I mean,
you have like thousands of people that vote in this poll.
So I just that's that's some fun news that there's
an election. I wonder if that bird cheated carry us.
Direct TV has restored Disney owned channels. Remember they had
a big fight over this and a lot of people
weren't able to watch the debate through direct TV because

(20:51):
of the Disney and ABC and ABC's are in it,
and they were having to dispute with Disney. They did
resolve their issues and now they're restoring the other networks
just into I'm for football. Also Boeing strike, We're going
to talk about this coming out. This strike continues. I
am fascinated that Boeing is dealing with a strike because
Boeing is also dealing with a bunch of crappily produced products.

(21:15):
So I just think it's a weird time when you are, like,
I mean, you're basically your company's basically going down to
junk bond status because of the quality issues. And the
people that are part of this are pushing for strike
and that they say they want higher wages, they want
all this other stuff. We're going to talk about this
here coming up in the program. But this strike continues
and it could drag on for some time. Apple loses

(21:37):
an anti trust suit in Europe. At Google did as well.
They did not dodge this two point seven billion dollar
EU anti trust fine. And there is a study on
lead in cinnamon, carcinogens in cinnamon. Consumer reports say that
there's different brands that should be on your do not
use list.

Speaker 4 (21:56):
Stick with us, but do you expect to hear anything
from the Trump campaign about toning down the rhetoric, toning
down the violence, or would that be a typical of
the former president.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
Well, Alex remember back to the assassination attempt on President
Trump's life and how you know, there was talk of
a new tone, and then the Republican Convention was by
Trump and standards muted, and it did seem like he was,
you know, just trying to take it down a few notches.
But then by the end of his convention speech, you know,

(22:31):
we were kind of back to where we started.

Speaker 1 (22:34):
So I don't know how long.

Speaker 2 (22:37):
This could like, you know, this moment of unity for
the country, where we come together and we say, I
don't want any political opposition to be under threat of violence.
It's not okay any threat of violence, you know, we
don't want. I would love for us to have a
unity type moment, but I think it's probably going to
be pretty fleeting as we've seen.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
In the past. I'm amazed that the responsibility for all
of this is down to the person who continually gets
shot at. So what the left is saying there is
that the responsibility of toning down the rhetoric so our

(23:19):
incited nutjobs, don't try to kill them? Is the person
that the nutjobs tried to kill? Is that what I'm
to understand that sort of rhetoric from. I'm just amazed
that that was an actual, legitimate conversation that was broadcast
on a major media network. Wow, welcome back to the program,

(23:40):
Dana Lash with you top of the second hour, and
you can find us channel thirty forty seven Direct TV
also on Rumble as well, and which is where the
discussion happens. That this is what they have been saying
over and over again since this news first broke yesterday,
that I mean, the headlines everything else is uh pretty crazy.

(24:05):
They and this, by the way, this guy was just
in Corta. He's got two firearm related charges so far
that they're rolling with and we're gonna bring We're gonna
bring more information as we get it. But so this guy,
he's charged with federal gun crimes. He's you know, tried
to shoot he was gonna shoot the president. He was
going to record it even as well. And the media,

(24:27):
the the reaction from the media is unbelievable with this.
Uh MSNBC says, well, he should, you know, really tone
it down, he really needs to tone down the rhetoric.
That was what we had just played for you. He's
got a he needs to tone down the rhetoric. After this,
you know, second attempted assassination and I don't I know

(24:47):
it was Alex Witt and I don't know who the
other person was that she was talking to, But this
after this guy, you know, he was within three to
five hundred yards of Trump, who was playing a round
of golf, and we were talking about his public schedule
last hour, and my biggest question was, it's not a
mystery of whether or not Trump is at Mar A Lago,
because anybody can drive by the airport and see whether

(25:09):
or not the Trump planes there. And it's also not
a mystery that he was playing golf on Sunday, because
he typically does play golf on Sunday. So you know,
you don't have to have you know, Einstein level like
you to connect those dots and follow that logic. But
the big thing that stuck out to me was that
this guy was there in the bushes for twelve hours
and nobody saw him there to get the cell phone data,

(25:30):
and he even had already admitted to it. He was
there in the bushes for twelve hours and legit nobody
saw him. How that's my question, How in the world
does that happen, especially when it is a publicly accessible
golf course. It's a little different from his than his
other ones. You don't go out knowing that and advance it.
I've just got a million questions and will and we
really got to come back to that that. Nobody's asked

(25:52):
that yet. How was he able to be there for
twelve Nobody has asked that question? Nobody. I want to
know why? Why? How was he able to be there
for that long? So they evacuated him from it, from
the golf course, and now you've got the media. Oh
that was at least Jordan MSNBC analyst. You know, what
does he need to take the temperature down? Does he
need to take the temperature down? I mean, that's really it,

(26:14):
you know, in the scales of radicalization. I mean, does
he need to The problem with the left shooting to
people on the right is not for the right to
adjudicate it is the left needs to take care of
their own side and maybe don't say things like he's
an existential threat to democracy. Maybe don't talk like that.
I I'm just It's amazing to me that that this

(26:39):
is there. You have threats out there, and they're they're
trying to act as though it's the responsibility of the
person who's being attacked. That's like saying your skirt's too short.
You were asking for it, regardless of whether or not
you were wearing a short skirt. I mean, there were
people who were saying that it was well, his rhetoric
about you know, the Hayeshi immigrants, the people who came

(27:02):
in illegally in Pennsylvania's there trying to find a week
read to pull on. I was looking at just a
collection of headlines, and it's bad.

Speaker 3 (27:12):
It is.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
It's bad. It's really bad to see some of this,
just headline after a headline after a headline. Look, if
you just like a candidate, you beat them on policy,
you compete with them on the battlefield of ideas. You
don't sit here and try to flame I mean clearly
impassion times by saying that people are existential threats to democracy.

(27:38):
And listen to this audio sound bite seventeen. This is
Lester holt Over at NBC. NBC. He just keeps it going.
Listen to this same thing.

Speaker 3 (27:46):
Today's a parent assassination attempt comes and made increasingly fierce
rhetoric on the campaign trail itself. Mister Trump is running
made jd Vance continue to make baseless claims about Haitian
immigrants in Ohio this weekend there were new bomb.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
Threats in that town.

Speaker 3 (28:02):
Our Maggie vest Ba.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Is you see how he just goes right away from
you heard it, How he just pivoted right away from
the fact that somebody tried to kill Trump again. Oh,
but you know his baseless And that's Lester Holt saying
that we're baseless. What is baseless in Pennsylvania, sorry, Ohio?
In Springfield, Ohio particularly, you have people who are there

(28:28):
that are illegally there. They do not they're not of
legal status. They are in Ohio. They're in Springfield, Ohio.
Are there not actual reports of residents calling nine to
one one many of them reporting people either eating animals
in the park or are there not actual examples of uh,

(28:54):
there's video body camera footage of law enforcement. We played
it last Actually, there's a couple we played some of
last week where there were people just like eating a
lady's cat, Like that's where it came from. It sounds absurd,
and it's true, these are not baseless claims. They actually
had a town hall specifically only it just for that issue,

(29:17):
and all of these people came up and spoke, and
the media wants to pretend that they're not there, just
like they like to pretend that the loudest and most
vociferous opposition to illegal immigration are Americans who immigrated here legally.
That is how they never go talk to those folks.
It's the same thing that they're doing here. So Lester
Holt saying that this is baseless, he's editorializing these baseless claims.

(29:42):
He pivots from an attempted a second attempted assassination into lying, well,
you know, these baseless they're not baseless. Just because you
don't like them and they're inconvenient for your narrative doesn't
make them baseless. And I actually think that Trump campaign
needs to keep doing it so long as they can continue.
You to loop it back to two things, not just

(30:03):
an open border, but absolute unfettered when you're bringing people
in like under the temporary protected Status arrangement, like that's
what they're doing with these people that are in Ohio.
You're bringing in swaths of people from particular regions. And
this program is not designed as we talked about, It
doesn't look at people individually. It's just says, if you're
coming from this particular region, then you have coverage. That's

(30:26):
an issue, Biden Harris expanded it. It is part of
the problem. I hope the campaign continues to do it
so long as it brings attention to both of these
absolutely documented, credible issues as it pertains to immigration. But
this is the media. It's the media. This is what
they're doing. Thanks for tuning in to today's edition of
