1 00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:03,040 Speaker 1: This is the Danish show. 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 2: My name is Craig Collins, filling in, thrilled to be 3 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:08,759 with you. A bunch of stuff out there to talk about. 4 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,880 The President traveled today to Dover Air Force Base to 5 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:16,239 be a part of the dignified transfer of fallen troops. 6 00:00:16,879 --> 00:00:20,280 We lost four, I think people as of right now, 7 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,399 four members of our military in the attack from Iran 8 00:00:23,519 --> 00:00:27,760 in Jordan. The President said a couple very easy things 9 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,120 to say, in the sense that everyone who's a world 10 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,119 leader should say this, and everyone who's the head of 11 00:00:34,119 --> 00:00:36,200 a military should say this when they're going to something 12 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,640 as emotionally difficult as a moment like this. I'm sure 13 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,960 that even these things, what I would call just inherently 14 00:00:43,039 --> 00:00:47,119 presidential types of behavior, are either ignored or somehow attacked 15 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,880 by the left. But they're simple and honestly, and even 16 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,560 though I hate the what aboutism of something, when the 17 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,640 reality of dealing with the actual sacrifice that men and 18 00:00:57,679 --> 00:00:59,960 women of our military are willing to make for us 19 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,240 US is so much more important than playing politics. It's 20 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,000 just so much more important than doing it. I'm always 21 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:10,239 reminded of the times when you hear from military individuals, 22 00:01:10,599 --> 00:01:14,719 especially those wounded in the line of duty, the horrible 23 00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:18,159 interactions they've had with commanders in chiefs. A case in 24 00:01:18,239 --> 00:01:20,959 point was one of those injured in Afghanistan who said 25 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,879 that President Biden was an absolute piece of crap when 26 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,480 talking to him in a hospital bit, which is something 27 00:01:27,519 --> 00:01:30,239 I'm sure a lot of people remember. It just makes 28 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,239 me think about how important it is to not just 29 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,640 say the right thing, but do the right thing, believe 30 00:01:36,719 --> 00:01:40,200 the right thing, and understand as best you can. Since 31 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,000 it's not your child that's gone, it's not your loved 32 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,760 one that did an incredibly heroic thing by being willing 33 00:01:46,799 --> 00:01:49,640 to serve our country in a capacity that put themselves 34 00:01:49,719 --> 00:01:54,680 in harm's way, and the inevitable reality of that happens, 35 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,959 the horrible reality of that happens and occurs. 36 00:01:57,239 --> 00:01:58,959 Speaker 1: All of those things. You can't just. 37 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,239 Speaker 2: Say the uh, the feelings and emotions that we all 38 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,959 should feel to the camera. You have to feel them, 39 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,080 you have to believe them. And I think that that's 40 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,240 a core difference for some and not others. But here 41 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,000 is what President Trump said just before boarding Air Force 42 00:02:15,039 --> 00:02:18,840 One about both what it means to be there and 43 00:02:18,879 --> 00:02:21,759 then also the reason that we're fighting, and then finally 44 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,439 what it likely means to the parents that have lost 45 00:02:25,439 --> 00:02:28,319 a child, wind it over, some of. 46 00:02:28,199 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 3: You going with us to honor our heroes. And they 47 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,800 are indeed great heroes. 48 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,479 Speaker 1: Yes, they said, and. 49 00:02:36,479 --> 00:02:37,439 Speaker 4: They all of them. 50 00:02:37,319 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 3: Said very strongly, we can't let you cannot let Iran 51 00:02:42,199 --> 00:02:44,479 have a nuclear weapon. They won't have a nuclear weapon. 52 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,520 So we're going to honor them. And one of the 53 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,199 hardest things to do for me, it's one of the 54 00:02:51,199 --> 00:02:54,879 hardest things to do as a president, but it has 55 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,039 to be done. 56 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: It has to be done. 57 00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 2: And the thing that's interesting about it too, is that 58 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,800 as a standing there is the person that that ordered 59 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,719 people into harm's way. I'm sure, I'm just you know, 60 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,120 projecting here a bit, but I'm sure there's some level 61 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,560 of tension that exists no matter how much the people 62 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,159 the gold Star families believed, not only and of course 63 00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:21,520 they always do in the willingness for their child to 64 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,560 to sacrifice for the state of our country and understand 65 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,759 the value of and they understand it better than anybody 66 00:03:28,759 --> 00:03:31,560 else does. I can't even begin to fathom the level 67 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:36,879 to which gold Star families, you know, can eventually, like 68 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,680 you know, I guess, emotionally or in some other way 69 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:46,319 convinced themselves that what happened is is so so heroic 70 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,719 because of the willingness of so few people to do 71 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,199 something like this. And I don't even know if convince 72 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,319 themselves is the right word, because I don't. I'm uncomfortable 73 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,520 in this moment as I've trapped myself in this discussion 74 00:03:56,599 --> 00:03:58,719 because I don't want to speak for gold Star families, 75 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,719 but I've interacted with and I've been doing a lot 76 00:04:02,759 --> 00:04:06,759 in another part of my media life that involves veterans. 77 00:04:06,759 --> 00:04:11,159 So I'm always blown away by the patriotism, the heroic 78 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,360 aspect of every individual I've ever met, and every story 79 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,120 I've heard about individuals that are no longer here but 80 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,079 you know, died protecting our country, and so I just 81 00:04:21,199 --> 00:04:24,319 I can't imagine the aspects that all go into that 82 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,759 when you're standing next to the world leader who commanded 83 00:04:26,759 --> 00:04:31,360 your child into combat and they're no longer here. But 84 00:04:31,639 --> 00:04:33,879 I'm always amazed too when I hear from people and 85 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,519 the things they think and say in that world. But 86 00:04:37,879 --> 00:04:40,399 this is what it means to be the person who 87 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,600 made that decision to go stand and be there, and 88 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,879 whatever the family wants to say to you, listen, whatever 89 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,160 it is, you should listen to it. Here is the 90 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,399 President also saying that, you know, for the parents, it's 91 00:04:52,399 --> 00:04:55,680 a child, it's their loved one. It's not anything other 92 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,040 than that. To the rest of us, they're heroes, but 93 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,480 to them it's someone raised. 94 00:05:00,519 --> 00:05:00,959 Speaker 1: Here we go. 95 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,879 Speaker 3: All I'm going to say is we love you. We 96 00:05:03,959 --> 00:05:06,839 love your child. And that's what they are to them. 97 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:11,480 They're their children. There's no games, no nothing, that's their child. 98 00:05:12,439 --> 00:05:15,360 And all you can do is throw out your heart. 99 00:05:15,879 --> 00:05:17,000 Thank you, thank you veryon. 100 00:05:17,079 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 2: He walks away, he gets on the plane and he 101 00:05:18,519 --> 00:05:20,680 goes and he is right about that. All you can 102 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,519 do is throw out your heart. And also, and I said, 103 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,759 and this is important, listen. Whatever they want to say, 104 00:05:25,759 --> 00:05:28,839 however they want to treat you and behave in that moment, 105 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,120 listen to them and don't behave like Biden, which a 106 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,920 member of our military who was harmed in Afghanistan said, 107 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,240 he walked into the hospital room and said, what do 108 00:05:38,319 --> 00:05:43,079 you want, essentially meaning that politically this is bad for me. Optically, 109 00:05:43,199 --> 00:05:46,000 you know, in the public from a pr standpoint, I 110 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,279 don't like the fact that you're complaining about the decision 111 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,439 I made. So what can I give you? To make 112 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,720 you shut up. And that is horrific as an idea. 113 00:05:53,759 --> 00:05:56,279 It's truly horrific, and it actually, you know, one other 114 00:05:56,319 --> 00:05:58,240 thing I'll say, and this is a pivot to a 115 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,439 reaction about politics, which is easier for me to talk 116 00:06:01,439 --> 00:06:05,560 about than the other topic. For sure, I wonder when 117 00:06:06,319 --> 00:06:08,879 for some or many people in the world of politics, 118 00:06:09,199 --> 00:06:14,079 your heart becomes that cold, it becomes that different than 119 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,759 the everyday average human being that you could walk into 120 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,399 a room like that, a situation like that, because I 121 00:06:18,399 --> 00:06:24,439 easily believe the military individual who said this, But there's 122 00:06:24,439 --> 00:06:24,800 no question. 123 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any reason anyone shouldn't. 124 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 2: I don't think someone who's willing to make a sacrifice 125 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,079 like that would then lie about politics for the sake 126 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,439 of politics. But nonetheless, how you could become so different 127 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,199 from the rest of us, from like a humanity standpoint, 128 00:06:39,439 --> 00:06:42,920 that then suddenly you want something to be completely couched 129 00:06:42,959 --> 00:06:45,759 in politics of how I look and how I'm perceived 130 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,399 as opposed to who you're actually standing in front of. 131 00:06:48,639 --> 00:06:50,800 All right, I want to play more audio from some 132 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,079 other stuff. Marco Rubio, secretary of Rubio I was talking 133 00:06:55,079 --> 00:06:57,959 about how we're not going to become a communist country. 134 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,639 It was a weird question he got in the Philippines, 135 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,360 and I thought he did a good job of answering it. 136 00:07:02,399 --> 00:07:02,959 Speaker 1: But here we go. 137 00:07:03,079 --> 00:07:05,399 Speaker 5: Well again, what the president put out on Thursday, that 138 00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:08,720 was a declassification of documents from our intelligence community. That's 139 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,839 what he put out. He declassified intelligence assessments from our 140 00:07:11,839 --> 00:07:15,079 intelligence community. But your question was about communist influence. Yeah, 141 00:07:15,079 --> 00:07:17,000 the United States doesn't want to be a communist country. 142 00:07:17,199 --> 00:07:19,439 We're never going to be a communist country, and we're 143 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,519 not going to allow communist influences to undermine our politics 144 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,439 or our society. So I don't know what the inconsistency 145 00:07:25,439 --> 00:07:27,959 you're referring to is. It's very clear, I don't you know. Obviously, 146 00:07:27,959 --> 00:07:31,319 we understand the Chinese system and other systems, but I 147 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,519 can tell you our system doesn't want communism, and we're 148 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:39,439 certainly not going to allow communist efforts to undermine American 149 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,160 society and drive wedges into our country. And that's what 150 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:43,879 we're seeing, you know. And by the way, one of 151 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,600 the leading you know, culprits of that for many years, 152 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,839 the intellectual authors, particularly in our hemisphere, is the Cuban regime, 153 00:07:50,879 --> 00:07:52,480 which which Cuba is a. 154 00:07:52,399 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 2: Great example of what we don't want to become and 155 00:07:54,519 --> 00:07:56,279 how horrible it would be in one of several great 156 00:07:56,279 --> 00:07:59,160 examples historically of what we don't want to become. It's 157 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,600 just so interesting that I think, and I said this 158 00:08:02,639 --> 00:08:04,079 earlier in the show, and I'll say it again even 159 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,279 though you don't care. And you can tune into the 160 00:08:06,279 --> 00:08:09,120 podcast if you want the longer form version of this discussion. 161 00:08:09,879 --> 00:08:11,920 But it's so interesting that the people who are most 162 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,199 guilty of stuff are usually the loudest at accusing others 163 00:08:15,319 --> 00:08:16,720 of doing exactly the same thing. 164 00:08:17,079 --> 00:08:19,759 Speaker 1: Like you hear that all the time in your everyday life. 165 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,079 Speaker 2: People who project something onto someone else that they're actually doing, 166 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,839 the biggest jerk in the office space might actually also 167 00:08:26,839 --> 00:08:29,800 seem like the nicest person and accuses everybody else of 168 00:08:29,839 --> 00:08:33,080 being a jerk sort of thing. It's all versions of that, 169 00:08:33,159 --> 00:08:36,320 which I find funny. If you're fighting with someone you're 170 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,799 in a relationship with, I'm not trying to out. 171 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: My wife for this. 172 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,159 Speaker 2: Occasionally they'll start yelling you about stuff that feels like 173 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,440 it's not about you, or at least the fight might 174 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,000 be about something that happened days, weeks, months ago and 175 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,799 not necessarily in the moment. All of those are just 176 00:08:50,879 --> 00:08:54,840 different variations of perceiving why people behave the way they do, 177 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,159 and not actually the reality of whatever the world is 178 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,480 or whatever is going on in that moment. And so 179 00:09:01,759 --> 00:09:04,720 I think it's so obvious how often we hear the 180 00:09:04,799 --> 00:09:07,679 left accuse the right of being fascist as they are 181 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,679 electing people who have literal Nazi tattoos on their bodies, 182 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,480 and then apparently not really wanting them to go away, 183 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,159 but eventually having to relent and letting them go away 184 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:21,000 because too many women came forward with rape accusations. But 185 00:09:21,039 --> 00:09:23,039 those individuals are the ones they want to usher in 186 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:29,000 the actual communist of philosophies, the actual fascist dictatorship type 187 00:09:29,399 --> 00:09:32,759 of consolidating of power to allow them to do all 188 00:09:32,799 --> 00:09:35,159 the terrible things that they're already doing. And I'll say 189 00:09:35,159 --> 00:09:37,679 it what I think I've said on this show before, 190 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,840 but I know I've heard from some listeners that want 191 00:09:39,879 --> 00:09:41,960 to steal it and like this, so do with it 192 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,799 what you will. The craziest thing to me, when you're 193 00:09:44,799 --> 00:09:47,519 having this argument with someone that believes that we should 194 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:52,639 be a democratic socialist country, a run by democratic socialists, 195 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,799 is that most people will agree that the government doesn't 196 00:09:55,799 --> 00:09:58,039 do for us what it's supposed to do, It doesn't 197 00:09:58,039 --> 00:10:00,279 do what the founding fathers designed it to do. It 198 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,039 serves itself, and the individuals who serve in political positions 199 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,519 of power by and large do for them and not 200 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,799 for us. The America first mindset, if you describe it 201 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:14,320 in certain terms without using words like America first, you 202 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,519 can actually get a liberal person to agree with a 203 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,759 lot of what you're saying. And so the funny thing 204 00:10:18,759 --> 00:10:20,960 to me, since we have so much common ground and 205 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,320 what's broken about Washington, is that these people on that 206 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,759 side think the best response to that problem is to 207 00:10:27,759 --> 00:10:32,120 give DC more unchecked power. Just hand them more capability, 208 00:10:32,639 --> 00:10:36,120 more control of the means to production, whatever. 209 00:10:35,879 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: It might be. 210 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 2: Just here you go, take this own all the land 211 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,200 and tell us which ones of us get which pieces 212 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,840 of land, which houses, and who can't have it and 213 00:10:43,879 --> 00:10:46,440 why you know, based on our race or whatever they 214 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,559 want to base it on. Which people in New York 215 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,360 are saying all the time that you usually can find 216 00:10:51,399 --> 00:10:55,240 someone that has been telling you how great democratic socialism is. 217 00:10:55,519 --> 00:10:57,399 That when you describe it like that, looks at you 218 00:10:57,519 --> 00:11:00,240 like I don't know how to respond to this brain 219 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,879 is broken now because I think that you might be right, 220 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,039 but I hate to admit it, because that's truthfully what 221 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,840 it is. These are people that by and large want 222 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,360 to do the worst possible thing with the thing that 223 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,720 we all agree is already broken. They want to go 224 00:11:14,799 --> 00:11:17,519 the worst route in trying to quote unquote improve it. 225 00:11:17,759 --> 00:11:19,759 All right, Well, take a break, A lot coming up, 226 00:11:20,159 --> 00:11:21,919 Craig Collins filling in on the data show. 227 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,279 Speaker 6: Their partners that bring you the program.

It's time 248 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:25,240 for Dana's Quick five. 249 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,039 Speaker 2: That's right, it's time for Quick five on the Data 250 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,879 show a d Lash Dana Lash Radio and x at 251 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,519 Radio craigc if you'd like. 252 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:33,039 Speaker 1: To follow me. 253 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,799 Speaker 2: Not having pennies as a problem, that's apparently according to 254 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,120 a brand new study that's out there, and I think 255 00:12:39,159 --> 00:12:42,120 The Hill, also, the very lefty place, put out a 256 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,240 story about this, but I agree that I think it 257 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,679 is we're rounding, and sometimes that means you round up, 258 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,960 sometimes you round down. And apparently the big complaint is 259 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,200 that some people are paying. 260 00:12:51,919 --> 00:12:52,759 Speaker 1: More than others. 261 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,519 Speaker 2: It's not a lot of money, more or less, it's 262 00:12:55,519 --> 00:12:59,240 a very few cents in every situation. But there is 263 00:12:59,279 --> 00:13:02,159 now an act that Congress is likely to pass called 264 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:06,720 the Common Sense Act ce NTS that hopefully causes us 265 00:13:06,799 --> 00:13:09,759 to have a rule for how we round, essentially meaning 266 00:13:09,759 --> 00:13:13,159 that if it's close enough to a five like a three, 267 00:13:13,759 --> 00:13:16,120 you might go up, but by and large, I'd actually 268 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,919 rather watch us go down. I think that that's what 269 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,840 it should be, man, I think that it should be. 270 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,759 You know, you can't go over, So if it's eighty four, 271 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,879 you go back down to eighty. I think that'd be 272 00:13:25,879 --> 00:13:28,279 better for so many of us. We'll see what actually 273 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,600 happens here. But that is something that apparently people have 274 00:13:31,639 --> 00:13:34,320 been complaining about. I just think it's weird how often 275 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,200 now when you pay, and I rarely pay with cash, 276 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,240 but if you do, and somebody just can't give you 277 00:13:39,759 --> 00:13:41,720 the chance. Not that I ever really wanted the pennies, 278 00:13:41,759 --> 00:13:43,600 so I don't miss them. I just think it's kind 279 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,279 of funny that people now struggle. Another story that I 280 00:13:46,279 --> 00:13:50,159 saw that I thought was interesting, Women who recently online 281 00:13:50,159 --> 00:13:52,919 were listing all the reasons that they disliked men, all 282 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,279 the things that quote gave them the ick, are now 283 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:59,000 doing the opposite. Apparently a new viral trend ask Reddit 284 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:00,320 is one of the places. 285 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,039 Speaker 1: Started putting this up. 286 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 2: Is the stuff that ladies most liked about dudes, and 287 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,480 as I was reading through it, the things that were 288 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,039 most commonly toward the top end of like being mentioned, 289 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,960 a lot part of me wondered if these were actually 290 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,799 straight guys that women were dating. I'm just putting it 291 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,720 out there because here's the list of stuff that women 292 00:14:17,759 --> 00:14:21,919 said they like the most about guys. Being thoughtful, thoughtfulness, 293 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:26,639 they love it, loving animals, humility, being prepared is on 294 00:14:26,679 --> 00:14:29,960 this list. Random acts of kindness is on this list, 295 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,320 and also kindness to randoms, which I thought was funny. 296 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,600 A kindness to randoms means someone who's a stranger, which 297 00:14:36,639 --> 00:14:37,960 I don't know if you need to call them a 298 00:14:38,039 --> 00:14:40,879 random and just being a nice person to them. But 299 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,080 it was like the thoughtfulness, the loving animals, the being emotional, 300 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:45,879 the understanding you stuff. 301 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,159 Speaker 1: Also being musical is toward the tail end of the 302 00:14:49,159 --> 00:14:50,279 things that people mentioned. 303 00:14:50,639 --> 00:14:53,919 Speaker 2: Not being a complainer or a whiny baby is the 304 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,440 way that they categorize some of that, and then making 305 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,840 clear plans ahead of time, which is one that I love. 306 00:14:58,919 --> 00:15:00,799 But at least half of this stuff in this list 307 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,600 sounds like they want someone as emotional as they are, 308 00:15:04,159 --> 00:15:06,759 and I've often found that it's not usually a straight dude. 309 00:15:06,919 --> 00:15:08,039 Speaker 1: I'm just putting it out there. 310 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 2: I'm just don't shoot the messenger for the way that 311 00:15:10,159 --> 00:15:12,399 I'm reacting to the story. But I thought it was 312 00:15:12,679 --> 00:15:15,279 is interesting that these are the things that ladies like, 313 00:15:15,639 --> 00:15:17,519 or at least they're willing to admit to like it. 314 00:15:17,919 --> 00:15:21,080 I feel like the one difference between guys and women. Wow, 315 00:15:21,279 --> 00:15:23,360 there's a lot of differences, of course, between us. The 316 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,919 one difference in the world of this conversation is that 317 00:15:26,039 --> 00:15:28,159 dudes are more willing to admit that one thing they 318 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,039 like is the way somebody looks, like, Yeah, I want 319 00:15:31,039 --> 00:15:34,799 somebody attractive. I think women operate the same way. I 320 00:15:34,799 --> 00:15:37,120 don't think they like saying it out loud as often. 321 00:15:37,159 --> 00:15:39,360 So I thought that was funny that it wasn't on 322 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,039 the list at all, not in the top fifteen for 323 00:15:42,159 --> 00:15:44,440 someone who's in good shape, or someone who looks nice 324 00:15:44,519 --> 00:15:46,639 or cleans up well, just not a. 325 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:47,879 Speaker 1: Thing that they wanted to mention. 326 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,279 Speaker 2: I can't imagine that one's true because I don't see 327 00:15:51,279 --> 00:15:53,200 a lot of the nice guys beating off ladies with 328 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,519 a stick. I don't see everybody trying to date that 329 00:15:55,639 --> 00:15:59,399 dude who seems to not be you know, successful in 330 00:15:59,399 --> 00:16:01,480 social media for a variety of reasons. All right, quick 331 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,080 break a lot more Creig Collin's filling in on the day. 332 00:16:04,039 --> 00:16:06,879 Speaker 6: To show as we rull towards headlines, our partners, the 333 00:16:06,919 --> 00:16:09,799 folks who help bring you the program. Ghost bed is 334 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,240 the bed. This is a mattress I sleep on every night, 335 00:16:12,279 --> 00:16:14,720 and I love my mattress. I do not toss and turn. 336 00:16:14,799 --> 00:16:17,159 I actually woke up. I went to sleep last night 337 00:16:17,159 --> 00:16:19,120 because I have This is I think my second week 338 00:16:19,159 --> 00:16:21,240 now with my ghostbed pillow. I went to sleep last 339 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:22,080 night and I laid down. 340 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: I think I was out. 341 00:16:22,879 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 6: I don't think I moved. I don't think I moved 342 00:16:25,039 --> 00:16:27,639 all night, which is bizarre because I am a crazy 343 00:16:27,679 --> 00:16:32,000 sleeper and apparently I get up sometimes. I don't at 344 00:16:32,039 --> 00:16:34,399 all with my ghost bed. I woke up all of 345 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,159 a sudden. It was morning. Like, oh, you've wake up 346 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,000 and you feel rested, And when you've been sleeping on 347 00:16:40,039 --> 00:16:42,440 a bad mattress, it's weird when you wake up and 348 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,200 you're like, wow, I feel rested. What is this? 349 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 1: This is energy? 350 00:16:46,279 --> 00:16:46,399 Speaker 4: What? 351 00:16:46,639 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 6: Because you're not tossing and turning all night, That's the thing. 352 00:16:49,399 --> 00:16:52,159 The other part of This is that ghostbed puts cooling 353 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,000 tech into every one of their mattresses, so you know 354 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:55,720 right out of the gate that this mattress has just 355 00:16:55,759 --> 00:16:59,240 built better quality materials, better construction. Cooling tech is not 356 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,360 an expensive charge that's already in all of their mattresses. 357 00:17:02,399 --> 00:17:05,319 Hot sleepers or some of Ghostbed's happiest customers.

And you've talked 379 00:18:03,839 --> 00:18:05,839 to everybody in the world of politics I think of it. 380 00:18:06,519 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, And the show has been on twenty years. 381 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, And as I said, it's interviewed pretty much 382 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,440 everyone notable in the world of Texas, in the world 383 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:15,039 of politics. 384 00:18:15,279 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 1: All right. 385 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:17,319 Speaker 2: The first thing I want to ask you about is 386 00:18:17,319 --> 00:18:19,920 not Texas specific. At some point I'll ask you about 387 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,440 tall Ico and the likelihood of debates and all of that. 388 00:18:23,759 --> 00:18:26,759 But I do want to ask you about zoron Mumdami 389 00:18:27,079 --> 00:18:29,240 and how he's been saying that he intends to arrest 390 00:18:29,279 --> 00:18:32,240 Benjamin net Yahoo, and just recently, I think, in a 391 00:18:32,279 --> 00:18:34,720 long video where he said a lot of stuff that 392 00:18:34,839 --> 00:18:37,720 I didn't care about at all, he finally admitted he 393 00:18:37,759 --> 00:18:41,279 can't do it. What are your thoughts about Mamdami taking 394 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,759 so long to admit that he has no authority whatsoever 395 00:18:45,079 --> 00:18:49,079 to try to arrest net Yahoo for international war crimes. 396 00:18:49,759 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 4: Well, at first I thought it was a publicity stunt 397 00:18:53,960 --> 00:19:04,799 to cater to his socialist anti Semitic bait. But the 398 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:10,519 longer he drug it out before admitting that what he 399 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:16,880 was proposing was both illegal from a from federal from 400 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:23,279 a standpoint of federal law, and impractical. Because I assume 401 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:27,039 that Trump may clear two or three days ago that 402 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:32,480 he would not allow it, I expected him to throw 403 00:19:32,559 --> 00:19:36,519 in the towel on this sooner. But I also saw 404 00:19:36,559 --> 00:19:40,240 that he was spending a lot of resources in their 405 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:45,079 legal department of New York City doing research on the 406 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:51,480 feasibility and legality of doing this. I assume the taxpayers 407 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:57,000 are happy about that. But you know, grandstanding is not 408 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:02,960 a Politicians on both sides of the aisle do that. So, 409 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,359 I mean, we know that you're going to see a 410 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:10,279 certain amount of that, But I don't know this one 411 00:20:10,319 --> 00:20:15,240 makes for great conversation. I mean, certainly he's proven to 412 00:20:15,519 --> 00:20:19,319 us what he always ran as. 413 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:20,759 Speaker 1: What we believed him to be. 414 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 4: He's not, you know, anywhere near the center, even in 415 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,079 the center of New York. I question whether or not 416 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:35,680 a lot of the citizens of the city really support 417 00:20:35,759 --> 00:20:39,599 this guy or may believe that, you know, next time, 418 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:43,240 maybe they out of vote and try to prevent somebody 419 00:20:43,319 --> 00:20:45,160 like this from getting the reins of power. 420 00:20:45,759 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 421 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 2: No, I agree with you that this felt like a 422 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,920 deeper dive into crazy. It almost felt Candace Owens esque 423 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:52,839 in the way in which he continued to say something 424 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,160 that any logical person knew was obviously inaccurate. And there 425 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,240 was a point, and you mentioned this where he's spending 426 00:21:01,319 --> 00:21:04,200 money on something that you'd have to think that most 427 00:21:04,279 --> 00:21:07,000 people with any level of experience that he seemed to 428 00:21:07,039 --> 00:21:09,799 lack when he won the mayoral race to begin with, 429 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,680 would not have needed to do that. Most people would 430 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,039 have known and he should have known, and I thought 431 00:21:15,039 --> 00:21:17,440 he did know, as you kind of stated that he 432 00:21:17,519 --> 00:21:20,759 had no options, no legal path to arrest a foreign 433 00:21:20,839 --> 00:21:22,960 leader that comes to New York, not even to meet 434 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,880 with you, and after our president says he wouldn't allow 435 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,839 it to happen, you just figured, as you said, he'd throw. 436 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: In the towel. 437 00:21:29,599 --> 00:21:31,839 Speaker 2: But it sort of demonstrates that other thing that I 438 00:21:31,839 --> 00:21:36,160 think I noticed a lot in politics been stupidity connected 439 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:40,519 to arrogance is the worst possible combination for a whole 440 00:21:40,519 --> 00:21:42,920 lot of people who wind up with power they really 441 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:43,480 shouldn't have. 442 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, And of course, the line between publicity, stent and 443 00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:55,079 stupidity ended about three days ago, so that the point 444 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,319 I was making was at the beginning, I thought he 445 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:01,880 was just doing it for clicks, and then he just 446 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,640 got tethered to it and it dragged him along. I 447 00:22:06,039 --> 00:22:08,799 tell you, the one thing that I was looking forward to, 448 00:22:09,039 --> 00:22:12,279 and this was not out of the realm of possibility, 449 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,559 was that he decided to do it, and net Yahoo 450 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:22,799 would come anyway, and he would at net Yahoo would 451 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:28,799 enjoy this spectacle of trying to New York police, trying 452 00:22:28,799 --> 00:22:31,920 to get past you know, not only I assume some 453 00:22:32,039 --> 00:22:34,839 kind of federal protection, because I think the Secret Service 454 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:41,480 is empowered to protect foreign leaders when they visit the 455 00:22:41,559 --> 00:22:46,880 United States. I'm almost certain that that's the case. And 456 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,839 of course you would have to get past the you know, 457 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:54,319 Israeli security. But you know, Net Nyahu is not an idiot. 458 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:58,599 He might actually enjoy being arrested by Mondamini. Sure. 459 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 1: I mean it worked out pretty well for T. T. Trump. 460 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,039 Speaker 2: The arrest and the you know, the headshot and all 461 00:23:04,039 --> 00:23:06,000 of that stuff that happened right all right. 462 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:10,079 Speaker 4: And the Israeli elections between now and October. So I 463 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,519 was trying to play it forward and see where this 464 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:13,400 was going. 465 00:23:14,079 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 2: Sure, so let's transition to Texas. As I said, you 466 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,559 are a part of the Amigos, a long running, a 467 00:23:19,599 --> 00:23:23,240 twenty plus year radio show in Houston. Tall Rico and 468 00:23:23,279 --> 00:23:26,680 Paxton will likely debate each other at least a couple times. 469 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,880 I've also seen quite a few recent photos of Paxton 470 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,799 or excuse me, of tall Rico trying to pretend that 471 00:23:32,839 --> 00:23:35,720 he's a real Texan behind the wheel of a truck 472 00:23:35,799 --> 00:23:37,920 or with a cowboy hat on, and he looks so 473 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,279 uncomfortable doing it. What are your thoughts about the likelihood 474 00:23:41,559 --> 00:23:45,160 of Texans finally getting a better understanding of how insane 475 00:23:45,599 --> 00:23:47,559 tall Rico is during a debate. 476 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:54,039 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, they'll have at least one, you know, 477 00:23:54,279 --> 00:23:57,599 Beyond that, I'm not sure it'll go any further, but 478 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:02,200 we'll see what they end up doing. And most Texans 479 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,720 are not paying attention to this race, and probably won't 480 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,400 until we get out of August and into September, I 481 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:17,200 would imagine, and to as of yet, Colo Rico is 482 00:24:17,279 --> 00:24:24,079 running advertisements on you know, primetime television, and Taxton is not, 483 00:24:24,839 --> 00:24:30,480 and he's Calo Rico's basically run one advertisement, which is 484 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,559 him carrying a bag of groceries and saying how prices 485 00:24:34,599 --> 00:24:39,960 are too high and I voted to lower property taxes 486 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:44,359 and reduce business taxes. So he's trying to portray himself 487 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,680 as a some type of moderate that no longer exists 488 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:53,079 in the Democrat Party. I know a few of them, 489 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,319 which is shill on our radio show, but for the 490 00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:02,200 most part, the moderate Democrat has gone extinct like the dinosaur, 491 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:08,079 and most of those folks have either become independent or 492 00:25:08,319 --> 00:25:14,039 became Republican, and the party itself is left with nothing 493 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:21,039 but the progressive side and increasingly radicalized side of the 494 00:25:21,079 --> 00:25:25,720 socialists that now control that party. And for anyone to 495 00:25:25,799 --> 00:25:29,000 believe that taller Ico is going to dance any other 496 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:35,039 tune other than the socialist agenda is naive. And Paxton's 497 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:41,160 job is to show people what the socialist agenda is 498 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:47,319 and demonstrate how caller Ico supports it, embraces it, and 499 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,640 that if you vote for this guy, that's what you're 500 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,920 going to get. And that process has not started yet, 501 00:25:55,279 --> 00:25:58,839 but I would imagine it. As we get into August, 502 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,839 we will start to see more of this we are 503 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:08,079 seeing right now Paxton involved in more fundraising and less spending. 504 00:26:08,839 --> 00:26:11,839 He is going to need a great deal of money, 505 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,640 probably at least one hundred possibly one hundred and fifty 506 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:20,880 million spent between now and November. I doubt he'll raise 507 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,920 it on his own, but he will have the support 508 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:32,799 of Trump, and I believe all of the Republican Senate 509 00:26:34,079 --> 00:26:40,279 machinery that will support Republican candidates, you know, irrespective of 510 00:26:40,319 --> 00:26:44,559 whether or not they you know, supported him during the primary. 511 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,200 So I believe they will come in strong. I am 512 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,960 no Trump will come in strong. He's got hundreds of 513 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,359 millions in a pack that he can use to support Paxton. 514 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,039 So there's going to be the money there, I think, 515 00:26:57,079 --> 00:27:02,960 to be competitive again to cala Rico is a socialist 516 00:27:03,599 --> 00:27:07,559 and Texans have to understand that before the election. 517 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, it's interesting about that. I'm not sure 518 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,279 if you saw this. I didn't tell you in advance 519 00:27:12,319 --> 00:27:14,200 that I would bring this up or anything. Actually I 520 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:15,759 didn't give you any notes on what I'm going to 521 00:27:15,759 --> 00:27:18,559 talk about. But Bill Maher did an interview with ABC 522 00:27:19,079 --> 00:27:21,680 in which he stated that his vote was in play, 523 00:27:22,319 --> 00:27:24,200 even though he hates Trump and he's the leftist. 524 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 1: In a lot of ways. 525 00:27:25,279 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 2: Bill Maher has occasionally been a voice of reason, more 526 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,079 of a moderate Democrat as you describe, but he I 527 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,599 think John Fetterman, within the last week many people that 528 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,000 are in that small vote have said, how ridiculously to 529 00:27:38,079 --> 00:27:41,759 the left, how ridiculously communist the Democratic Party is becoming, 530 00:27:41,759 --> 00:27:44,279 and how dangerous it is both to the country and 531 00:27:44,319 --> 00:27:49,680 also the political likelihood of people winning elections in the future. 532 00:27:49,759 --> 00:27:52,119 I think they all believe that twenty twenty six will 533 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,160 go well for them, but twenty twenty eight will go 534 00:27:54,279 --> 00:27:56,880 terribly for them. Is there a reaction for you to 535 00:27:57,079 --> 00:28:01,400 some of these long time Democratic voices saying out loud 536 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,039 the thing the rest of us are thinking. 537 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,799 Speaker 4: Well, they're trying to suppress it because they know they'll 538 00:28:07,799 --> 00:28:14,039 get a backlash amongst independents. However, you saw how quickly 539 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:19,960 and how fervently they embrace the storm and furor in Maine, 540 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:24,920 and so as long as they think they got a winner, 541 00:28:25,079 --> 00:28:27,279 they're going to love him and they don't really care 542 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,559 whether or not he's you know, a socialist or whatever 543 00:28:31,599 --> 00:28:35,640 the heck he is. You know so. But but you know, 544 00:28:35,759 --> 00:28:39,400 as soon as they feel like, you know, it's dragging 545 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:44,200 him down, they'll they'll cut the cord. Now, I think that, uh, 546 00:28:44,559 --> 00:28:47,000 And what I saw under Pelosi and I have no 547 00:28:47,079 --> 00:28:50,720 reason to expect any different this time around, is that 548 00:28:51,279 --> 00:28:57,079 the socialists are going to shut up. And I've noticed 549 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:03,680 Democrats do a decent job of suppressing those that they 550 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:11,960 believe are a hindrance to the majority obtaining a congressional majority. 551 00:29:12,359 --> 00:29:14,519 And the way they do that is threaten them with 552 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:17,279 the colding money and position and things like that. So 553 00:29:17,599 --> 00:29:20,960 we'll see how effective it is this time around. This 554 00:29:21,039 --> 00:29:25,799 group of socialists that are his nominees that won their 555 00:29:25,839 --> 00:29:29,480 primaries over the last month or two, they're very feisty. 556 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,880 So I'm hoping for a lot of good quotes and 557 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:37,599 Mormon dami and you know, I just you know, I 558 00:29:37,599 --> 00:29:42,400 hope they keep talking and we'll see calor Rico run away. Now, 559 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:46,039 it also affords tall Rico an opportunity to say things like, oh, 560 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,480 that's crazy, I never support that. The problem is, I 561 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:54,720 mean he would if he had to. So again it's 562 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:58,000 his voting record. I think in the Texas House that 563 00:29:58,079 --> 00:30:00,640 really needs to come under scrutiny. You know, he can 564 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:05,039 claim that he voted for property tax reduction, but it's 565 00:30:05,119 --> 00:30:08,599 like everything else, he had voted against it fifteen other times. 566 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: Sure, absolutely, thank you. Oh go ahead. 567 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm sorry. I don't want to go run on 568 00:30:13,799 --> 00:30:14,799 too long, but go ahead. 569 00:30:14,839 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 2: Yes, no, oh, I was going to say thank you 570 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:17,640 so much for joining us, but I want you to 571 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,279 complete your thought before we let you go. We are 572 00:30:19,319 --> 00:30:20,640 about to run out of time, but I think we 573 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:21,799 got another couple of minutes. 574 00:30:23,119 --> 00:30:27,799 Speaker 4: No, So I just I believe that exposing him and 575 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:32,480 tying him to an agenda that he's supported during his 576 00:30:32,519 --> 00:30:35,519 career in the legislature and prior to that, we have 577 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,720 all his comments. As you are aware, I've played him 578 00:30:38,799 --> 00:30:42,400 on my show where he talks about open you know, 579 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:46,720 opening your arms and your door and putting a doormat down, 580 00:30:46,799 --> 00:30:50,920 welcome the legal immigrants crossing the border on paraphrasing. Then 581 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,920 there was one of my favorites about how transgender men 582 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,920 have a right to an abortion, and you know which 583 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,039 is you know, way over on the crazy side. So 584 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,240 you know, I just the guys, You got plenty of 585 00:31:03,279 --> 00:31:07,119 Steff in his own words to convince Texans what you're 586 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,319 getting if you consider yourself voting for Tall Rico. 587 00:31:10,759 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 2: Now absolutely, I was going to say that too, that 588 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,039 essentially the biggest person that tall Rico is running against 589 00:31:15,079 --> 00:31:17,279 is himself. Whenever he says things that seem to be 590 00:31:17,319 --> 00:31:20,480 more reasonable because of the insanity that he's used or 591 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,079 that he's talked about, like a year ago, two years ago, 592 00:31:23,119 --> 00:31:25,440 that he's going to pretend he no longer believes.

And I'm not sure 632 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:24,519 if this is within the rules, but I think it 633 00:33:24,559 --> 00:33:28,119 is the best Florida man story I saw over this 634 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,119 week has been a guy in New Jersey described as 635 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,519 a Florida man who barricaded himself inside. 636 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: An RV in a Walmart parking lot. Is a real 637 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:37,920 thing that happened. 638 00:33:38,359 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 2: The dude at some point had an altercation with somebody else. 639 00:33:41,599 --> 00:33:44,519 He's thirty eight years old. As I said, he lives 640 00:33:44,519 --> 00:33:47,240 in Florida. He was in Jersey for some reason. He 641 00:33:47,279 --> 00:33:50,880 got inside a tan and green RV parked at the 642 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,400 edge of the parking lot at a Walmart and had 643 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,680 a stand off with the police. They assumed, and I 644 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,680 think later confirmed, they had a bunch of weapons inside 645 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,920 the r and by weapons, I don't mean the typical stuff. 646 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,480 He had a flamethrower, among other things. I don't think 647 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,559 he actually used it, and I do see that the 648 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,360 end of this incident he peacefully eventually exited the RV. 649 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:13,159 Speaker 1: I wonder how that goes. 650 00:34:13,599 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 2: I've always kind of been curious, like, of course, there's 651 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:20,000 the crazy moment, and if you're police officers, you're dealing 652 00:34:20,039 --> 00:34:23,440 with all different kinds of mental health issues, and somebody's 653 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,039 on the other side of an RV door. They got 654 00:34:26,039 --> 00:34:28,920 a flamethrower, they got tons of stuff, they're making all 655 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,280 kinds of threats, and then eventually they just kind of 656 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,079 get out. Like it's the extended version of saying goodbye 657 00:34:34,159 --> 00:34:36,599 to someone and then walking in the same direction, like 658 00:34:36,639 --> 00:34:39,679 when that's awkward, but to a whole different degree because 659 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,559 you're getting out of the RV, you're getting arrested, and 660 00:34:41,559 --> 00:34:44,360 you're like, I'm sorry about the flamethrower thing. I didn't 661 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,760 mean it. I'm glad I didn't hurt anybody. This is crazy, though, 662 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,599 and the dude again is arrested and probably in a 663 00:34:50,639 --> 00:34:52,880 lot of trouble. I just love the fact that if 664 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,800 it's a Florida man, not in Florida. It's very much 665 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:57,679 in the title and it's in the first sentence of 666 00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:59,920 the story that this guy is not one of us. 667 00:35:00,199 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 1: Wherever it is it's happening. 668 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 2: Florida man was accused of possessing two hundred and twenty 669 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:06,559 pounds of marijuana. 670 00:35:07,119 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: He has been arrested. 671 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 2: That's illegal there, too bad he wasn't in a different 672 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,719 state where it would have been probably fine. I doubt 673 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,079 that much marijuana is okay, actually, but some of it 674 00:35:16,119 --> 00:35:19,320 would have been okay. But anyway, he seemed to be 675 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,480 someone who was obviously dealing it. His name is James Craig. 676 00:35:23,159 --> 00:35:25,199 That's Craig is a last name. That's not me, that's 677 00:35:25,199 --> 00:35:28,239 some other dude. He is forty six years old and 678 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,480 two hundred and twenty pounds sounds like a decent amount. 679 00:35:31,159 --> 00:35:33,320 Speaker 1: You know. That's a bigger dude. 680 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 2: And I was wondering, like, what other ways could I 681 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:39,000 help you understand the amount of pot that was found 682 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,480 with this guy? And so I googled animals that weigh 683 00:35:42,599 --> 00:35:44,719 roughly two hundred and twenty pounds, so I know some 684 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:49,199 dudes do, but also Indo Chinese tiger worth of pot 685 00:35:49,599 --> 00:35:52,719 was found, a mountain lion, a puma worth of pot 686 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,159 was found. And then here's my two other favorite ones. 687 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:59,559 A giant panda or an African elephant baby not an 688 00:35:59,599 --> 00:36:03,039 actual elephant, the baby version. Those both weigh the same 689 00:36:03,079 --> 00:36:06,079 amount as the amount of marijuana this guy I was 690 00:36:06,119 --> 00:36:09,199 caught in possession of He's also in a decent amount 691 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:12,199 of trouble. Again depends on the state man. If he 692 00:36:12,199 --> 00:36:14,519 had been in some other places, who knows how this 693 00:36:14,559 --> 00:36:16,639 would have gone. And then I saw another story at 694 00:36:16,679 --> 00:36:20,000 a Tampa where they were saying that a Florida man 695 00:36:20,039 --> 00:36:22,719 has left a bunch of crashed boats just in the 696 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:27,000 water there. And then it's cost taxpayers since twenty twenty 697 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:31,880 almost four hundred thousand dollars for Florida to remove all 698 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:35,320 of this dude's derelict boats that again are just like 699 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,960 sunk and there. I don't understand how you get to 700 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,679 that point as somebody like you own the boat. 701 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 1: Did you own it when it was broken? 702 00:36:43,559 --> 00:36:45,559 Speaker 2: Did you accept it was a fixer upper and you 703 00:36:45,599 --> 00:36:47,199 weren't capable of actually fixing it up? 704 00:36:47,199 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 1: Like what's the road you go here? 705 00:36:48,679 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 2: And then to have it happen multiple times, you would 706 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,719 think at some point some member of his family would 707 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:55,039 be like, you probably. 708 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,679 Speaker 1: Shouldn't own a boat anymore, man, you keep sinking them. 709 00:36:58,079 --> 00:37:02,159 Speaker 2: But anyway, as I said, this guy is costing people 710 00:37:02,159 --> 00:37:02,880 a bunch of money. 711 00:37:03,039 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 1: James Huckabee is the guy's name. 712 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,760 Speaker 2: He's sixty nine years old twenty different violations for a 713 00:37:09,679 --> 00:37:12,599 number of boats vessels as they were called, that were 714 00:37:12,639 --> 00:37:15,119 just sunk and on the side of the water that 715 00:37:15,199 --> 00:37:18,400 eventually somebody had to yank out of there again for 716 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,159 everybody's safety, this guy should go nowhere near a boat 717 00:37:21,199 --> 00:37:23,519 again for the rest of his life, to say the 718 00:37:23,599 --> 00:37:26,280 very least, all they're off or they were all fixer uppers, 719 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:27,880 and he doesn't have a woman in his life to 720 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:29,039 make him actually do the work. 721 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 1: Quick break a lot more.

I 729 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:56,719 also understand too that there are times that people have 730 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,559 to go to places where your Second Amendment rights are 731 00:38:00,519 --> 00:38:04,960 making you just an open target for everybody. They None 732 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,519 of these places ever provide adequate security to make up 733 00:38:07,519 --> 00:38:09,840 for what you could provide for yourself. So you need 734 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:13,800 a diverse option. This is not a replacement. It's not 735 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,639 a replacement. It's not an addition to carrying. This is 736 00:38:17,679 --> 00:38:20,960 something that you use when carrying isn't possible. Now, they 737 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,280 have different models over a burning gun. I don't care 738 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,840 about those. I care about the CEL the Compact Launcher 739 00:38:26,039 --> 00:38:28,480 because it's roughly the size of an iPhone, meaning it's 740 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:33,039 highly concealable, but there's no recoil and it shoots chemical 741 00:38:33,079 --> 00:38:35,920 irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to sixty 742 00:38:36,119 --> 00:38:39,599 feet away. This is an option when your options are limited. 743 00:38:39,639 --> 00:38:41,679 Now you could say, well, what about our taser or 744 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,719 stone gun that's great in dandy One or two rounds there?

They arrested a mime, a dude who's 758 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,000 walking around with the top hat and stuff. He's a 759 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,039 twenty nine year old guy. His name is Hernan, I think, 760 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,960 which is also kind of a rare name. I don't 761 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:32,159 know a lot of Hernand's. But anyway, I really love 762 00:39:32,199 --> 00:39:34,960 the way that witnesses talk to the news media about 763 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:39,639 seeing a dude dressed in typical mime stuff plus top 764 00:39:39,639 --> 00:39:42,519 hat and kane, because yeah, it's creepy, and it would 765 00:39:42,559 --> 00:39:45,760 be creepy if you're walking around on a trail somewhere 766 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,320 in Massachusetts and this dude just kind of goes by 767 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,400 you and maybe he does some sort of two or 768 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:53,079 three minute performance without speaking any words at all. 769 00:39:53,079 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 1: Here we go. 770 00:39:54,519 --> 00:39:56,280 Speaker 2: Oh right, Actually, you probably can't hear that. Let me 771 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,599 fix that real quick so that you can hear it now. 772 00:39:58,679 --> 00:40:00,320 Speaker 1: And now here we go. 773 00:40:00,519 --> 00:40:01,119 Speaker 6: I'm shocked. 774 00:40:01,159 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 4: I'm surprised because I walk here all the times. 775 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,360 Speaker 2: I think I've seen this person maybe five times. 776 00:40:07,519 --> 00:40:09,480 Speaker 7: He passed me when I was going down the path 777 00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:13,320 kind of freaked me out a bit. Top hat cracular 778 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:17,400 paint on the chase, black cape cane, real creepy. 779 00:40:17,119 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 4: Causing a disturbance, and you know, harassing people. That's just 780 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,400 not appropriate, no matter what you're call yourself or do. 781 00:40:23,599 --> 00:40:25,920 He was just kind of buy the bushes by the water, 782 00:40:26,119 --> 00:40:29,119 off the path, kind of stumbling around the bushes by himself. 783 00:40:29,119 --> 00:40:30,119 Speaker 1: And that was when I was starting to get a 784 00:40:30,119 --> 00:40:31,559 little darker, so I got a little spooked. 785 00:40:31,639 --> 00:40:34,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, it sounds like he was hammered potentially. And also, 786 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,159 I don't think you can couch any version of being creepy. 787 00:40:37,199 --> 00:40:39,679 And I'm just being a mime. That's just what I'm doing. 788 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,199 I'm just trying to entertain the people at the walking 789 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:46,039 trail in Massachusetts. I know, to her anand twenty nine 790 00:40:46,079 --> 00:40:47,760 year old dude who got arrested. But I just love 791 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:51,320 the guy who's like top hat cane, just kind of 792 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:52,880 a creepy dd top. 793 00:40:52,639 --> 00:40:57,559 Speaker 7: Hat cracular paint on the face, black cape cane, real creepy. 794 00:40:57,639 --> 00:40:58,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, a disturbance. 795 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,760 Speaker 2: Sorry, he sounds real, real creepy. That guy sounds like 796 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:03,800 the kind of person you do not want to run into. 797 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,960 To be honest, I've thrown a rule out before while 798 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,079 filling in on the show that one of the most 799 00:41:09,079 --> 00:41:12,119 intimidating things to me while dealing with someone who's not 800 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,639 doing well mentally would be if they were also naked. 801 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,639 I think slightly under it, it's still under it. Naked 802 00:41:17,679 --> 00:41:20,000 is still scarier. Would be a dude dressed up like 803 00:41:20,039 --> 00:41:23,119 this who's not speaking and doing some crazy stuff, but 804 00:41:23,159 --> 00:41:25,440 he's arrested, he's in trouble. I got to be a 805 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,639 heck of a headshot that he took when he got 806 00:41:27,639 --> 00:41:29,880 brought down to the jail. All right, quick break, A 807 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,119 lot coming up. Thrilled to be with you as always 808 00:41:32,119 --> 00:41:35,000 filling in on the Dana Show. My name is Craig Collins, 809 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,519 and now all of the news you would probably miss, 810 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,840 it's time for Dana's Quick five. That's right, it's time 811 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,360 for quick five on the Dana Show. A d Lash 812 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,280 Dana Lash Radio an x at Radio. Craig c if 813 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,440 you'd like to follow me, not having pennies as a problem. 814 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,920 That's apparently according to a brand new study that's out there, 815 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,639 and I think The Hill, also the very lefty place, 816 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,000 put out a story about this, but I agree that 817 00:41:59,039 --> 00:42:02,320 I think it is we're rounding, and sometimes that means 818 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,360 you round up, sometimes you round down. And apparently the 819 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,760 big complaint is that some people are paying more than others. 820 00:42:08,199 --> 00:42:10,679 It's not a lot of money, more or less, it's 821 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:14,440 a very few cents in every situation. But there is 822 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,360 now an act that Congress is likely to pass called 823 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:21,960 the Common Sense Act ce NTS that hopefully causes us 824 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,920 to have a rule for how we round, essentially meaning 825 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:28,679 that if it's close enough to a five like a three, 826 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,280 you might go up. But by and large, I'd actually 827 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,079 rather watch us go down. I think that that's what 828 00:42:34,119 --> 00:42:36,000 it should be. Man, I think that it should be. 829 00:42:36,199 --> 00:42:38,960 You know, you can't go over, So if it's eighty four, 830 00:42:39,119 --> 00:42:41,039 you go back down to eighty. I think that'd be 831 00:42:41,039 --> 00:42:43,519 better for so many of us. We'll see what actually 832 00:42:43,519 --> 00:42:46,800 happens here, but that is something that apparently people have 833 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,519 been complaining about. I just think it's weird how often 834 00:42:49,559 --> 00:42:52,360 now when you pay, and I rarely pay with cash, 835 00:42:52,519 --> 00:42:54,440 but if you do and somebody just can't give you 836 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:56,880 the chance. Not that I ever really wanted the pennies, 837 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:58,760 so I don't miss them. I just think it's kind 838 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,440 of funny that people now struggle. Another story that I 839 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,880 saw that I thought was interesting a women who recently 840 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,639 online were listing all the reasons that they disliked men, 841 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,239 all the things that quote gave them the ick, are 842 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,840 now doing the opposite, apparently a new viral trend. Asked 843 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:15,920 Reddit is one of the places that started putting this 844 00:43:16,079 --> 00:43:18,760 up is the stuff that ladies most liked about dudes. 845 00:43:19,159 --> 00:43:21,480 And as I was reading through it, the things that 846 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,239 were most commonly toward the top end of like being mentioned, 847 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,199 a lot part of me wondered if these were actually 848 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,000 straight guys that women were dating. I'm just putting it 849 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,880 out there because here's the list of stuff that women 850 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:37,119 said they liked the most about guys. Being thoughtful, thoughtfulness 851 00:43:37,119 --> 00:43:41,840 they love it, loving animals, humility, being prepared is on 852 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:45,119 this list. Random acts of kindness is on this list, 853 00:43:45,119 --> 00:43:48,480 and also kindness to randoms, which I thought was funny. 854 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,800 A kindness to randoms means someone who's a stranger, which 855 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:53,159 I don't know if you need to call them a 856 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,719 random and just being a nice person to them. 857 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:56,800 Speaker 1: But it was like the. 858 00:43:56,760 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 2: Thoughtfulness, the loving animals, the being emotional, the under standing 859 00:44:00,519 --> 00:44:01,079 you stuff. 860 00:44:01,559 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 1: Also being musical. 861 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:05,039 Speaker 2: Is toward the tail end of the things that people 862 00:44:05,079 --> 00:44:09,000 mentioned not being a complainer or a whiny baby is 863 00:44:09,039 --> 00:44:11,320 the way that they categorize some of that and then 864 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:13,760 making clear plans ahead of time, which is one that 865 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:15,480 I love. But at least half of the stuff in 866 00:44:15,519 --> 00:44:18,119 this list sounds like they want someone as emotional as 867 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:20,880 they are, and I've often found that it's. 868 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,199 Speaker 1: Not usually a straight dude. I'm just putting it out there. 869 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,320 Speaker 2: I'm just don't shoot the messenger for the way that 870 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,599 I'm reacting to the story. But I thought it was 871 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,440 is interesting that these are the things that ladies like, 872 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:32,719 or at least they're willing to admit to like it. 873 00:44:33,079 --> 00:44:36,360 I feel like the one difference between guys and women. Wow, 874 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,519 there's a lot of differences, of course, between us. The 875 00:44:38,559 --> 00:44:41,119 one difference in the world of this conversation is the 876 00:44:41,199 --> 00:44:43,320 dudes are more willing to admit that one thing they 877 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:46,239 like is the way somebody looks like, yeah, I want 878 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,960 somebody attractive. I think women operate the same way. I 879 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,320 don't think they like saying it out loud as often, 880 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,519 so I thought that was funny that it wasn't on 881 00:44:54,559 --> 00:44:57,239 the list at all, not in the top fifteen for 882 00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,599 someone who's in good shape, or someone who looks nice 883 00:44:59,679 --> 00:45:02,400 or cleans up well, just not a thing that they 884 00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:05,880 wanted to mention. I can't imagine that one's true, because 885 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:07,760 I don't see a lot of the nice guys beating 886 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,239 off ladies with a stick. I don't see everybody trying 887 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,159 to date that dude who seems to not be, you know, 888 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,360 successful in social media for a variety of reasons. All right, 889 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,880 quick break a lot more Craig Gollin's filling in on 890 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:19,559 The Dana Show.
