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 man. So uh you know that we've got a
story about the villages ches. A husband was arrested after

(00:28):
he called her his bible thumper. Wife poured out his rum.
This guy, I tell you, this is like, this is
probably the most normal thing you're gonna hear about the
DAP kidding. So what ended up happening is Ronald Wayne
foot It f O t I T foot It of

(00:49):
Lake Panascoffi scoff Key is facing a battery charge. He
was arrested after he was taken into custody. He looks
like a thumb. Uh. He was mad that his wife
poured his wrong down the sink when she found him
drinking at two am. And then after she put out
the rum, he was like, oh yeah, and then he
popped open a beer. Well. Then a struggled ensued over

(01:09):
keys and iPad in a phone. She did not want
him to drive because he was drunk. And so he's
six foot tall and weighed three hundred pounds. He pushed
his wife onto a bed. She called nine one one
When they arrived, they found that Footage had bloodshot eyes.
He literally smelled like a bottle and the pandemic of
the paramedics. Sorry claimed that the woman he was a
retired paramedic, and he goes, she attacked me because I

(01:31):
called her a bobble thumper because she poured out his rum.
So he was arrested on a charge of domestic battery.
He was booked in a sumper Cunty detention center. He
was initially booked without bond, so I don't know if
he bonded out or not. But that's you know, but yeah,
he got mad. She was looking out for his well being.
She's been a good woman looking out for his well being,
and he wouldn't having none of it. So that's I mean,

(01:54):
I don't know, but that's poured out. I wonder how
much if it was like a lot of rum or
not a lot of rum, I don't know. Let's see here,
we have this other story in here that this this
is kind of an old story though, but it seems
like it's an old story. I don't know this it's
about a Florida man named Sean Urbibe Rebe. That's yeah,

(02:18):
that's that or that it could be that I don't
know how to do this one, because we've had a
story like this before. He this was a department stores
across Miami. This Florida man is facing criminal charges because
he would approach like juvenile juvenile women from behind and

(02:41):
then use a medical syringe to squirt some mystery liquid
on them and then recorded on his cell phone. Yeah,
and apparently there he fled before employees could intervene. Other
shoppers alerted the victim. Surveillance footage captured one incident and

(03:02):
it showed that there was a stain on the back
of her shorts. And then at a Marshall's two months later,
a similar incident was reported and the same thing, and
it was the same guy, and so they she identified
him in a lineup, and investigators started putting all these
different cases together and they finally arrested him. Charged with

(03:25):
multiple offenses, felony battery on a child, two misdemeanor battery accounts,
tampering with evidence. He's out on bombed, he's under house
arrest and he can't he can't go into stores or
be around any of the victims. And he said that
the liquid was seed to fill and then he had
deleted the videos from his phone. Ye, I don't think so.
That's like a lotion. It's like a lotion for sensitive skin,

(03:46):
like if you have eggsit on that. That's very particular though, right,
I don't know. I feel like some of the days
need to beat him within an end of his life
on the street. That's just me thinking that loud. The
P fifteen which stands for fifteen pews literally that's the
name UH and with Keltech it is this, This is
such a great, great, great UH Striker fire pistol. You

(04:07):
have two versions right off the bat. So you got
your metal version, which has this like rielling prating like
walnut would be, you know, panel on it. Then the
grip it's just really nice, classy James Bond kind of gone.
And then you got what I call strictly business. You
got your polymer gator grip texture. You got all of
that with your uh the polymer version, and they're just great.
They send with two standard capacity magazines. One is a

(04:29):
fifteen round with minimal peinky extension. The other is the
other holds twelve rounds. It's flush fit double sack mag
so if you want more conceal, this a little more concealability.
You got that with US tritium and fiber optic front
sight fully adjustable, fiber optic two dot rear like I said,
Striker fire reliability, sweet trigger pool one point two seven
inches wide approximately with a four inch barrel lifetime warrantine.

(04:50):
This is compact and ideal for conceal carry self defense.
And it's from the inventors of the microcompact pistol category.
It's game changing innovation and performance with Celtex's P fifteen,
the ultimate concealed carry nine millimeters lightest finnis on the market.
Innovation performance, kel Tech Learn more at kel tech weapons
dot com. That's k E l t Ec Weapons dot com.
It's the P fifteen. Tell them Dana sent you. They

(05:17):
just issued a state. The House Speaker finally put out
a statement saying that you can't go in the women's bathrooms.
Blah blah blah. Just do it. Just issue the damn
statement and then move on to other stuff. Why are
we wasting four days on this? And I'm not saying
it's not a big thing, but do we have to
take like three to four, like a whole week to
release the statement? If he would have come out guns
blazing balls of the wall, like rhetorically speaking, now all

(05:41):
the puns intended. Then wouldn't like why he should have
done this hardcore in the beginning, but he didn't. And
then now he's spending the next couple of days trying
to like build up his rep as like being a
hardcore about this issue. We saw you, you didn't say
nothing that a first answer. We saw you. Don't think
that we didn't. So I'm just, you know, wondering, and

(06:04):
it didn't help. And it's fun to dunk on the Libs,
but I want to make sure that our own side
is not nominating themselves to get dunked on. And here's
what I'm talking about. So yesterday Marjorie Taylor Green, she
was mad because the Gates report they want to release.
They're trying to tell the House Ethics Committee to release
this report. The Senate wants to read it, and apparently
somebody got access to it and they've been leaking stuff

(06:25):
I don't know. And Marjorie Taylor Green goes from my
Republican colleagues in the House and senat, if we're going
to release the ethics reports and rip apart our own
that Trump is appointed. Then put it all out there
for the American people to see, all the ethics reports
and claims, including the one I filed all of your
sexual harassment and assault claims that were secretly settl payin
off victims, a taxpayer money, all of it. And she's like,

(06:46):
you know, if we're gonna dance, let's dance in the sunlight.
I'll make sure we do. Okay, Well, then do it.
Come on, tough girl, release it. Don't throw that wasn't
a good time. Put it all out there. Why in
the hell would you not? This is our text, dollar,
our dollars, this is our money. Then release it, all
of it, this whole like, don't you come after my

(07:09):
sexual dvan or I'll go after yours. That doesn't work.
That's a really bad strategy. Okay, let's not do it.
Let's just release all of it. Why would we There's
there a reason why any of this should be kept private.
Why should anybody be protected? Is like the big question.
I mean, remember there was an eighteen point two million
dollar congressional slush fund for hashtag me too claims, or

(07:31):
as we like to say it, the pound me two Kane.
Well that's what it was. That sign that was off
air conversation that we had. The hashtag was originally the
pound sign. Kane, it's the matter with you? Adamann Jevski
was the one who did this with his openbooks dot

(07:51):
com and they said that they they had two hundred
and ninety one cases of workplace disputes for Congress since
nineteen ninety seven. They paid out eighteen point two million dollars.
That was just in March of twenty twenty one. So
why is this an if and not a win? Like?
Why why would you not? Why would she not release all?
Like why why keep any of it private? So you're saying, well,

(08:15):
I'll keep it private if you keep that private. So
how are you any better? You're not. That is not
the flex you think it is. Girls, What are you doing?
I liked it when she was, you know, all about
the bathroom stuff and when she put the Hunter Biden
photos up there. This one was a miss just saying
so now I want all of the stuff, all of it,
throw it all out there. I want to know what

(08:36):
kind of deviancy is happening in the halls of Congress?
Don't you agree? Like we should get to know this.
Nobody's talking about it. None of the media, gosh, everyone
into the conservative media talks about the same dumb stuff.
Somebody goes whoa, whoa, and then they all go it's
all the same thing. I can't handle it. It's like
reading the same stupid story repurposed five thousand ways across

(08:59):
the whole slate of web sites. It's just mine, mine, mine, mine,
my mind. That's all it is. Come on, people do better.
I mean, where where nobody's now Everyone's like, ooh, maybe
that wasn't good. Now, no one's asking about you volunteered it.
I want it now. I think that would uh, I

(09:19):
think that would that would be a good thing to do. Now.
Trump apparently is trying to find some workarounds for Gates.
I don't know, is he. Though. All I'm seeing is so,
so and so said Trump called so and so said
Trump did this. That means nothing. He's got truth Social,
he can go out there and post it up on
truth Social. The fact that he's not doing it, and

(09:42):
that all of this stuff is well, Trump said, so
and so said, Trump said so and so said that
they heard that Trump called so and so said that,
Trump said that, they called or this that so and
so else said that. Trump called no, no, no, why
are we even entertaining that? If if he's wanting it,
then he puts it on true social that's it. Then
he puts it on a true social It's all there

(10:03):
is to it. So you know that's it. What is now? Who?
What is the number five? What is this one? This
is the press asking Trump if he's reconsidering Matt Gates
and he has one word, go ahead, mister president, are
you reconsidering the nomination of Matt Gates? No? Well, there

(10:24):
it is. Doesn't But can I just be honest? You know,
And this is why I'm into the And I've never
ever said, oh, this is forty chess. I've never said it, Kane.
Have I said that? Have I made fun of people
who do? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I actually think this might
be forty chess. I'm not gonna lie. So does that

(10:46):
sound like Trump is vociferously pushing something? No? No, If
Trump wants something, he posts about it NonStop. You will
know he wills about it non stop. He won't let
it go. He'll find a way to work it and
to average everyday conversations. Yeah, he'll give it a nickname.

(11:11):
And if you don't like it, you also get a nickname.
So that's why I'm like, hmm, I'm not taking very
seriously all of these stories where they're like, well Trump said,
and I read this story, I kid you not, where's
this at? I thought I saved it, but I think
they actually took it down. It was a where's this

(11:32):
story at? There's a story where they were saying that, oh, well,
uh so and so said that Trump called and was
pushing people to confirm Gates. I don't believe that because
Trump would literally be beating all the senators over the
head on true social they would. He would be cutting videos,
He's done stuff like that. He's gone out and has

(11:55):
like very strongly defended or pushed for people. That hasn't
happened here and again, going back to Lorraine's letterhead theory,
it wasn't on the letterhead came that's true. So the
letterhead theory is that the picks that Trump knows are
going to get through and that he's really like you know, stamping,

(12:17):
are on letterhead. The ones he might be like a
little m or not confident that they're going to get
through no letterhead. They just get a true social statement
kind of interesting, right, and now all of the news
you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick five.
This is a really cool headline. The earliest quote Jesus's

(12:38):
God inscription found in Israel's deemed the greatest discovery since
the Dead Sea scrolls. It's an inscription that was uncovered
beneath the floor of an Israeli prison and it's now
on display in the United States. The eighteen hundred year
old mosaic was discovered by an inmate of the Megidio
prison and it features the ancient Greek writing quote the
God loving a Keptus has offered the table to God

(13:01):
Jesus Christ as a memorial. It's five hundred and eighty
one square foot mosaic and it decorated the world's first
prayer haul in two thirty a d and really fascinating,
fascinating thing. Also, SpaceX president says we could easily see
four hundred starship launches within the next four years. Four years.

(13:23):
The president of SpaceX, Gwynn Shotwell Aired, of course that's
perfect name. Aired does some company insights at a financial
summit and said she could easily see four hundred of
them blasting off for the next four years. The FDA
is going to investigate forever chemicals found in seafood. I
thought this was something they were already doing. They're trying
to figure out how PFA PFA says pfassas affect seafood,

(13:47):
the environment, and processing water. Can I just venture a
guess and suggest not well, just same. A report finds
in America is catching and eating a little less fish.
The volume and value of America's commercial fishing industry has fallen,
according to newly released federal figures, though members of the

(14:08):
industry say that the decline was to be expected following
a recent spike in supply. They said that the catch
at US ports in the fifty States fell two point
six percent to eight point four billion pounds in twenty
twenty two, the same catch it was about. I mean,
it's like almost six billion at the docks in twenty
twenty two, but they've seen a drop of as much

(14:29):
as of eleven percent. So wild we need to eat
more fish because fish is healthy for you. A man
camping in the Amazon rainforest wakes up to find literally
ten million ants tearing his tent apart because he's fighting
with nature. Nature is done with you. I guess they
thought it was a giant leaf. They were a bunch
of leaf cutter ants and they were ripping apart his tent.
Conservationist Paul Rosalie was resting in the largest rainforest in

(14:50):
the world when these little insects woke come up at
two in the morning. He was trying to sleep, and
they were tearing through the fabric, trying to dismate thele
everything carry them away like he was a gulliver in
a Let's see this is said. A NASA lander may
have actually killed life on Mars, a scientist claims, and
colleagues took his theory surprisingly well, they said. Six years

(15:11):
after Apollo eleven touched on the Moon, two other landing crafts,
Viking one and two, were sent to the red planet surface.
They were trying to see whether or not the soil
could actually produce something living, and one astrobiologist says that
the craft may have killed potential life by putting water
on it. He says the salt of the ability to
absorb moisture from the Martian atmosphere might normally provide all
the necessary water to microbes there, but they might have

(15:32):
been too sensitive to handle the direct addition of more liquid.
Do you remember the case of the Susan Smith. This
was like thirty years ago. I was really young when
this happened, but I remember this case. I think it
was like I was a teenager when this happened. She
was the South Carolina woman and she strapped her kids.

(15:52):
I think it was like a two year old or
a three year old and a fourteen month old strapped
her kids into her car and then let it roll
into a lake near where she lived, and her kids drowned.
Then she lied to the authorities and said it was
a black man that stole her car and took her kids,
and so for you know, all like for like, she

(16:13):
lied to them, and so for days she was like
on television pleading for them to this imaginary suspect to
bring the kids home. And then police finally confronted her
because some of her story wasn't adding up. And then
in that case, and she finally admitted to killing them.
So she was sentenced. Well, she came up for parole
for the first time today and was denied. And I

(16:35):
think it's good that she was denied because she's crazy, trifling.
I can't say it on air. The whole reason she
killed her kids is because she was having an affair
on her husband and the guy with whom she was
having an affair told her that he couldn't continue because
of her kids. So she kills her kids. And she's
been I read an article not long ago where they

(16:58):
were noting that she's been entertain hating, like men writing
letters to her, and they said that she hasn't really
changed that. She was telling one man, yeah, when I
get out, we can, you know, talking about the money
that she could get from, you know, selling her story
or doing this or that. And she has it in
her mind that she's going to become this millionaire because

(17:18):
people will be fascinated by her grossness and then her
and you know these one of these men writing letters
to her while she's in jail, then they can go
and you know, live a care free life. So she
was denied parole and she apparently even her husband, the
father of the kids, was like, no, do not let us.
She's a monster, do not let her out. She apparently
has never demonstrated remorse, like actual remorse, none of it.

(17:42):
And the husband has moved on, but he's still really
is grappling with losing his two sons, and he has
a new wife, and the new wife was telling the
court that some days, you know, it's still it hits him.
You know that he doesn't have his two sons here.
And nobody wants this woman to get out, so she's
still she's in jail. She's still in jail where she
needs to be. I don't even know, honestly, I don't

(18:04):
know why she's still alive. I have a very hard,
absolutely no in no frills response to this sort of heinousness.
I don't know why. Like this Jose Obara, this da
in Georgia already took the death penalty off the table.
So taxpayers already that paid and facilitated for the murder

(18:25):
of Lakeln Riley by flying this violent gang member from
New York to Athens, Athens, Georgia, they're going to be
paying for him for the rest of his life. Now.
I mean this chick, this Susan Smith chick, she killed
her two sons and now she's taxpayers would have to
have to pay to keep her. And she knew exactly
what she was doing. She lied about all. I was

(18:46):
going to commit suicide and stay there with them, but
I got out at the last minute. No you didn't.
You killed him because you wanted to go on. She's
like a Casey Anthony, except Casey Anthony didn't get caught,
I mean convicted. I should say, well, look she kind
of did. But this is wild. Spent some time, was released,

(19:06):
this is crazy. But I just don't know our society
indulges this stuff because I don't know. We think that
we lock people up and that can reform them like
those I think certain people cannot be reformed, and it's
not for a lack of belief in grace. I think
God can forgive them, but society's different. And forgiveness it

(19:27):
doesn't mean absence of penalty either, by the way, you know,
it doesn't mean and I'm not saying that comes into
this chick's case at all. I just don't know how
the husband would ever be able to forgive something like that.
But grace doesn't mean that there isn't room for actual accountability.
I don't know why she should have been put to death.
I think when you're killing kids, it's a death that's

(19:49):
a capital punishment offense. This Jose Obara, he's going to
be living his life in prison unless some prisoners decide
to do a good deed and take him off the taxpayer.
Gol hm, it's true. Well, it's absolutely true. Is that
that's justice? It's not justice. Thanks for tuning in to
