Speaker 2: It's his laugh mission to make bad decisions.
Speaker 3: It's time for Florida man.
Speaker 1: I think you would learn for the first time when
you were doing this, and then maybe the seventy fifth time.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: I don't think this Florida man still learned. His name
is Mark Brentce. He looks like he didn't care. It's
Hillsborough County, Florida. He's fifty seven. I'm sorry, hold up,
fifty seven. This man is fifty seven. This man is
not fifty seven years old.
Speaker 3: No way, no way.
Speaker 2: Drugs will do it to you.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, I wouldn't. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Wan's gonna throw it up there because you guys got
to see this. I just every now and then this happens.
Mark Brent's fifty seven. He has apparently done this barcobe
manipulation game and lows for quite a long time. He
was finally arrested after the oh, I don't know, seventy
fifth time that he did it. That's that he's fifty seven.
I can't believe it. He switches barcodes on stuff.
Speaker 3: And then he goes to the same loves. That's the thing.
Speaker 1: He doesn't just like go around to different loaves. He
goes back to the same loves. They finally got him
this last time. He went to ten different stores or
actually sorry, ten different times, a handful of stores, over
four five hundred dollars in merchandise. And they even said
in one article I read, said, yeah, we know.
Speaker 3: It was him. We know it's him when he said that,
because he keeps doing it this. Let's see.
Speaker 1: I wanted to touch on this one. This Florida man,
if you're denied a dog at a dog adoption, don't
pull a gun on on someone, especially two women. Apparently
that's what happened. Tampa police had to get involved and yeah,
she did not get the dog safe to say, stick

concealable nine millimeter that I have. And there's two different versions.

Speaking of immigration, I want to share this story with
you before I forget and run out of time. This
hour door Dash and uber Eats. So we've seen then
how many of you order from that? A lot of
you order, Yeah, DoorDash or uber e right, there's you know,
sometimes it gets like really really busy. If I'm there'll
be sometimes in the evening.
Speaker 3: I like to cook.
Speaker 1: I really do enjoy cooking, but I especially now with
this cycle and all of the changes that Democrats have
proposed to do, you know, push to do different things
that contradict with existing law. There's a lot to keep
up with, and you know a lot of other stuff
going on. It's an election season, et cetera. So I
can get really busy out ordered door dash or uber
ease or something every now and then. And I didn't
realize this. I didn't really pay attention to it, and
not that you would be able to tell, because people
can actually rent out and sell these accounts, so DoorDash
and uber eats. There are tongues of Venezuelan immigrants who
entered illegally who are now working as food delivery drivers
across America. There have been over a million Venezuelan citizens
who have flooded, largely illegally into the United States. Now
some have gone the legal way, and that's totally fine.
Go to the legal way.
Speaker 3: Let everybody know who you are.
Speaker 1: We just still want terrorists coming up in here in
axe murderers and rapists and kid touchers.
Speaker 3: And all that stuff. Let people know who you are,
et cetera.
Speaker 1: But largely, like over ninety percent, it's not been and
coming in through the US.
Speaker 3: Mexico border.
Speaker 1: Now people are wondering about the safety of the delivery
apps and the ability of trust.
Speaker 3: Can customers trust these people delivering food to their homes?
Speaker 1: And then you get you know, a personal information that's
you know, that's out there.
Speaker 3: So apparently people have.
Speaker 1: Been going People who've been coming into the country legally
say that these jobs are one of the easiest ways
to make money when they first come here. One Venezuelan
door driver who came here illegally told the press that
even before I leve Venezuela to come here, I knew
I could rent an account that wasn't mine to work
in food delivery. The crazy thing is is that people
will sell these counts like on Facebook and Twitter, and
you can shut it down. You can shut the account
or x and then another one will open up like
that doing the same thing.
Speaker 3: I mean, they crop up.
Speaker 1: And this guy said, there's another guy who said he
was authorized to work in the US or he was
waiting for authorization, because that can sometimes take weeks to
wait for your authorization. He didn't want to be associated
with crime asset, hiss navy withheld and he said, you know,
he was able to set up and get his account
to do this even before he got here. A lot
of they said that at least there are thousands of
Venezuelans who have come to the DFW area Dallas Fort
Worth legally and illegally, many illegally. And you pay a
fee and you rent out a delivery app account, like
someone will say on X and there's screenshots of all
of this, like who's renting a DoorDash account. There was
a Venezuelan Friends in Dallas, Texas group on Facebook. Now
some are here legally, but largely these are used by
people who are not here legally, and they, I mean,
they'll publicly discuss it or they'll discuss it in these
groups like rent an Uber account or I'm renting my
Uber account, message me if someone's interested, et cetera. And
they said this. One guy said, the rentals one hundred
and fifty dollars a week. You have to keep it
active for three months content continuously, and if you want
to buy it, it's nine hundred dollars.
Speaker 3: And you can do like they do. Install it's crazy.
Speaker 1: They and you deliver food and you or make these
deliveries with these apps and it's very easy. Now I
know I missed out myself, do you see the problem
that is arising from the problem of an open border.
My first thought was, when Democrats start getting criticized for this,
what are Democrats going to say in response, Because they've
already been at war with third party contractors, correct licensing,
and different states, particularly in states like California. So what
is the problem that you think they're going to say
they're going to solve when they're criticized about illegal immigrants
using and well abusing these apps this way, we need
government oversight of these apps. We need government oversight of
DoorDash and uber to be able to figure out who
that's what they're going to propose. It's almost like they
set up for further government incursion into digital spaces and
digitally based businesses. But the problem is just to shut
the damn border to people flooding in illegally. But that's
not how they'll look at it. Texas and then apparently
specifically the Bay Area of California are hotspots like the
Dallas area and then like around the Bay Area of California,
and a lot of them are worried about gang members
getting this information or taking advantage of these services, et cetera.
And they said, organized crime will always find a way.
According to one user, it's going to be hard to
tell the good people from the bad people.
Speaker 3: And doesn't that make it you know, let's kind of
think about it. That's kind of.
Speaker 1: Harsh, because what if it's I honestly think, yes, you're
breaking the law when you come in illegally. It's a crime,
and there should be penalty for that. But I also
think that there are grades of crime. Being a killer
gang member is probably worse, I would think. And this
doesn't this not go against democrats argument about immigrants, Oh,
not all immigrants are criminals and all of this other stuff.
But do you realize what you're setting them up for
this failure because you've kept the border open, You've made
it even when people come here legally. Democrats have refused
to work with Republicans to remove a lot of the
red tape and expedite the process for good, hard working
people that say, hey, look here we are, here's everything
we're coming in, we're bringing our skill set in, we
want to raise our kids, how we'll vote Republican.
Speaker 3: We don't even care.
Speaker 1: Fine with all that, but you see what I mean,
It's like they're setting people up to fail. They don't
change any of the mechanics, they just make it worse.
It's one of the craziest things. And I mean, I'd
never actually thought about this, And I mean, now, do
you do came when you do your dordasher uber, Like,
do you do you have like a no contact delivery thing?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I have that option where they just sleep. So the
instructions for me is just leave it at that. I
have a chair at the door at the on my
front porch, so just leave it there on the chair
and then ring the doorbell. And that's my instructions.
Speaker 3: I think a lot of people do that. I have
no contact that's ever since COVID. I think I've done
that before COVID.
Speaker 1: Really I'm not surprised, but I did not like a
bra I get so awkward in one on one conversations.
Speaker 3: It's the most awkward thing ever.
Speaker 1: If you've ever met me in real life and it's
not in a big group setting, you're like, how does
she do what she does?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: If it's like one on one, I'll be like, what
about that weather?
Speaker 3: It's just weird. It's just me.
Speaker 1: But there was there're like all of these uh like
a local one of the local stations here in DFW
was talking about people who are here illegally and then
they rent out these accounts and she's had her car hit,
and other people have had like stuff stolen and some
I mean, there's a lot of stuff that's happening, and
you realize these are all these Democrat policies that are
setting this up. So now you're going to be like
suspicious of anybody coming and dropping food off at your door.
Speaker 3: Anybody's going to.
Speaker 1: Be suspicious even if you've ordered the food when they
put it at your door. You're going to be watching.
Speaker 3: And waiting, are they gone, Have they left yet? Have
they left yet? Are they walking away?
Speaker 1: It's weird, and we pay for this mess. It's our

Speaker 2: And now all of the news you would probably miss,
it's time for Dana's quickfive Wow.
Speaker 1: So over one hundred people had to be rescued by
helicopter because they got trapped by flash floods near the
Grand Canyon Tavasu Cree left people trap. There's one hiker
who apparently is still missing. The flooding happened. It was
a kind of quickout happened. They said it was massive
flash flooding on Thursday, and it was one hundred and
four tourists total and tribal members that had to be
evacuated from the area. And it's a very remote part
of the country. It's about a half mile from Colorado River,
so good heavens everybody stays safe.
Speaker 3: This is a.
Speaker 1: This schools are competing with cell phones because some schools
are removing them from the classrooms entirely. The Associated Press
gets into some of this. They're saying that students are
actually like dull, performing better when you do remove phones
from the classrooms. They said that they've been teachers have
been fighting shortened attention spans, reduced attendance, worsening academic performance,
and they're trying to reverse this. They're banning cell phones
in school. Some schools are going so far as to
ban them on the campus entirely, which I don't know
if that's like the best thing to do if you're
a football game at night and your parents need to
pick you up. But I mean at least that they're
they're putting them in cell phone pouches, lockers and bends.
That has grown in popularity and some students that of
an up trying to some parents teachers have tried, abandoned, trying.
Speaker 3: To stop it all together.
Speaker 1: But they said that it's there's really nothing to You
can't compete with the cell phone in the classroom, which
is true. I mean that seems like obvious and parents,
obviously I think would be good partners for this.
Speaker 3: Oh, but I saw this over the weekend.
Speaker 1: They're saying that there's new uh, there's a new vaccine,
by the way, that's out, the COVID vaccine. The latest
vaccine is out for COVID. Oh, and they've got new
free COVID tests again coming out free, meaning we're paying
for the stupid stuff. They're made in China, by the way.
You know this right, they're made in China, just like
the last ones were made in China. The Biden administration
is bringing back the free at home COVID nineteen tests
by mail. Each house can hold order up to four
of the rabbit tests their COVID tests at GOP. Is
this still a thing? Are people still doing this? Are
we still doing You know they're not accurate and not
only are they not accurate, but I mean again.
Speaker 3: Made in China. Oh, let's see.
Speaker 1: Sports gambling is taking a toll on Americans checkbooks according
to research. I don't know this was such like a
big I mean, yeah, it does make sense. This is CNBC.
They're saying that researchers have been looking at the impact
of legalized sports gambling on American households, and they found
that households and states were gambling was I legalized. They
saw reduced savings as well as they said, lower investments
and assets like stocks that are considered more financially sound
states that have legalized the states have legalized sports betting
and saw their residents aggregate credit scores decrease. Also in
bankruptcies increase. It's not a free lunch legislation. I am
amazed at they keep talking about the change, but yet
they're in charge. And in the meantime, Biden is heading
to his Delaware beach house from Sunday to Tuesday. According
to Marinda, Devine reported the FAA no fly zone alert
and he was right after he spoke at the DNC
in Chicago. The family took the flight to Santa Barbara
and I made mention of this. I talked about this
story because the number of reporters have mentioned it, and
there was a big piece of Daily Mail there was
something over it AXI. I think it was Axios or Politico,
and they were saying he was visibly shaking, like shaking
when he got off the plane. And that Tuesday night
when he spoke, he was on came. Was it twelve
thirty Eastern when he finished. I just remember I was
so tired. I couldn't stay up because I had traveled.
I was in Knoxville that weekend for a Gun Owners
for America event, and then I had so much stuff
going on, and I remember he was up so late.
I'm like, I cannot, I cannot keep watching this. This
is crazy.
Speaker 3: I've got to go to bed. I'm so tired. And
he was still talking and they it would have been later.
Speaker 1: They said that they had mixed this video tribute that
they made for him.
Speaker 3: Do you really think they made one? I don't know.
Speaker 1: And they were James Taylor was gonna play, was he there?
Can you imagine being James Taylor and you're brought out.
That was Biden's favorite singer. You're James Taylor and you're
brought out and they're like, we don't have time for
you because.
Speaker 3: They let everybody else go.
Speaker 1: And so they had Joe speak and you could tell
he was mad. They were all mad, and they sort
of relegated him towards the very end of the show,
after half of America had already gone to bed because
it was twelve thirty Eastern. And then he gets on
the plane, goes to California's at this ranch for a
week with his family. The whole family goes. I guess
they don't none of them work. And he's there for
a week and he was visibly shaking. Interestingly, how there
were no photos or video of it because the press
protects him is why now some interesting things in the
now that we're in the aftermath of the DNC. So
they said that Michelle Obama only confirmed her spot speaking
spot only confirmed that she would speak at the DNC
after Biden had dropped out. She would not confirm it
before then. She has she was very close. She was
a very close friend. And you can go back before
all of this happened. You can look at previous articles from.
Speaker 3: Like ten years ago longer.
Speaker 1: She was always very close with Hunter Biden's ex wife,
Kathleen Buell. They were always very close in DC. They
lived in DC, they talked regularly. They were actually real
friends not just political friends, they were real friends. And
the rumor was it was always out there. Everybody was
kind of aware of it, that she was livid with
the way that the Bidens had treated Buell, and she
took Buell's side, you know, and her husband, Barack Obama,
he's former president, that was his vice president. You know,
he's got to kind of, you know, play the game.
Michelle didn't have to. So the word is that she
which is why her name wasn't added onto the website
until and that was somebody had put that on X
and it was the night after Biden had dropped out,
and that's when her name was put on the as
a speaker.
Speaker 3: She would not confirm.
Speaker 1: Until after he had dropped out because she wasn't going
to be there. If he would, she was not going
to be there. Interesting how that there's a lot of
drama going on there, the Biden's influence and all of that.
Speaker 3: Is done done.
Speaker 1: He was never a good frind raiser, even when he
had all of his wits. He's not going to be
I mean, the family is utterly useless to democrats. And
if you're utterly useless, you're just swept under the rug.
If you can't raise money, which is the reason that
Bill Clinton has been around as long as he's been
because he was always.
Speaker 3: A powerhouse fundraiser.
Speaker 1: That's why they kept him around for as long he
was a powerhouse fundraiser. Barack Obama can raise money too.
It's interesting Barack Obama wasn't able to start raising money
until really his second term. His coat tails used to
be so short that people like Claire McCaskill and others
refused to do campaign events with him because they did
not want him to tank their chances. This was in
the twenty twelve actually, when we took the shellacking interesting
twenty twelve, It wasn't until after that waypoint, and even
what is it, twenty ten, they didn't nobody wanted. People
didn't want to fund raise with him. So interesting, especially
Middle America folks because of the bitter clinger remark that
followed him.
Speaker 3: Anyway, So my point in bringing this up is they're not.
Speaker 1: They seem unified on the surface because that's what the
media want you to think, but they really aren't. And
I keep hearing that the internals, the internal polling numbers,
and I want to talk about that.
Speaker 3: Here real quick. For Harris and some of these others.
Speaker 1: I keep hearing that the Eternal internal polling numbers are
kind of rough and they're not what they want them
to be, which is one of the reasons why like
five point thirty eight didn't you know, the New York
Times then why they didn't have them up. And I
thought that was kind of interesting because nationally, if you
look at the RCP average, et cetera, they're pretty close, right, which,
but but there's there's I think there's a reason why
they keep pushing this unity and joy and shoving it
down your throats, because there really is not a lot
of unity and joy behind the scenes. Thanks for tuning
