You all who wasn't staged? Adam curry, John C. Devorah. It's
Thursday, September 12 2019. This is your award winning keep
on nation media assassination episode 1172. This is no agenda,
printing homelessness in 3d and broadcasting live from
opportunities on 33 in the frontier of Austin, Texas
Capitol drone Star State in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley where we feel so bad about the
departure of John Bolton. I can't tell you. I'm John
Seymour. Raglan buzzkill
Yeah, crying over that one.
What took them so long?
To get there in the first place? That's the thing no one can
distil an unanswered question. Well,
I think there cannot be a coincidence that the tally Bong
banana cancels or the Trump cancels the tally bond after
they blow something up and Bolton's gone the next day. You
gotta think that may be connected? Well, it's definitely
a coincidence. Yeah, exactly. I think not. Sure. So yeah, that
was some news. But I found the news for me that I wanted to
start with today. And hopefully, everybody paid attention,
because we laid out in some detail on the previous episode,
exactly what was going on with the vape wars
vape bores and women. Wait, hold on. Yep. Yeah,
it got to the jingle vape wars and to the tee, exactly as
expected. And I think I even said, pay attention because
you'll see how it really works where the media is complicit and
politicians are complicit. And the President is complicit. And
it's all to get a couple of big players, a solidified spot in
the marketplace that crushes everybody else, and this is the
vapours. I'd like to board. I think that there is there is
important information that needs to be conveyed in particular to
members of our audience. I because I also got to boots on
the ground report from Justin, the drug dealer, because we have
different vaping technologies that are being conflated, in
particular by the mainstream. Let's start with the number one
issue that I have with their communication. E cigs e
cigarettes is bullshit. They use that term to equate vaping with
cigarettes. There are no E cigarettes anymore the thing
that comes closest is the jewel which is called a jewel not an e
cig is called a jewel it's a vape and there's one other you
identify John foods or something or there's some other you know,
I saw an ad they have a shitty ad because I can't remember
their name
that I was just gonna say the same thing it's not a shitty ad
by any means. It's a really well produced ad except for that one
fact just kind of remember their name and ruse
Wii U ze could that be it? ruse? I think
so it's something else starts with an M I believe and it's a
cuter devices cooler looking little device than the jewel
now it's the booze I think this there's only one to lose. Yeah,
thanks to the booze Yeah. Yeah, it's it's the same same idea.
Wii U S E rules rules. No,
no. I'm going to behold my opinion on that being the name
until I see the ad again. Let's see if I can remember it.
Anyway, continue.
Alright, so let me talk about the three basic vaping
technologies First there is the sub ohm tank and this is a
button in it and the different sizes for everything in general
it's a battery and that can be a very large battery and a tank
that holds the liquid and in that as the coil and it's called
sub ohm because the resistance of the coil is under one ohm and
resistance and that's the stuff that if you jack it up enough
you can blow huge vape clouds. If you're if you are
experimental and you try other types of coils you can short the
battery and kill yourself so most people go and blow yeah
most people go for a pretty simple system I have the what do
I use the schmuck S M Okay. Buck, the stick V eight and and
the tank that goes with it. And those are, I would say fairly
safe. Then we have the vape pen for which you can which is very
thin looks like a pen that's just a battery and the controls
to turn it on or off or store it and you will buy little
cartridges with vape liquid in that or you can get a very tiny
tank so that you can fill up yourself. And we call that a
vape pen. And then there's also of course, the, the sticks that
we did the vapes that we talked about which is jewel and Vuse
and they have a little cartridge that is prefilled that you snap
right on to the end because that thing is essentially just a
battery and so it's got the coil it's got a prefab coil and the
and the juice in there. Then we have THC, which is now there's
many ways people do this and I'm not going to get into the more
esoteric versions of it but you have the vape pen and you can
buy a cartridge just like with the E Liquid only it has a THC
in it, which is then there's some additives in there which
actually help to make it vaporise and let me start with
that because that is where there is some actual danger. This is
more important in this whole vaping bullshit because I'm sure
I like to vape THC but I became very wary a while ago when I
started coughing off of one I talked to Justin the drug dealer
I said this is no good and he really did a deep dive and
brought me a report. So what's the problem is the people who
package and sell THC vape cartridges to the consumer with
pretty colours and often with you know, things to attract
children, I'm sure but they're just taking a premade mixture
which they buy from what they believe is a reputable source.
And they put it in there and even dank there's a whole bunch
of these big known names that that do this then you have the
manufacturing itself, which is not inexpensive, you know just
to build a lab will cost us 500,002 quarters, three quarters
of a million dollars. And you have this combination of some
oils and some other liquids that make it vaporise not unlike the
illiquid vape only we've seen a number of these manufacturers,
maybe one may be more who started putting other shit in
there such as the vitamin E acetate, just to get it to be
more liquid and to vaporise, that is where the actual danger
is, you do not want to be vaping that stuff. It can be checked by
anyone who has the test equipment, which is just
chemical testing. So my drug dealer does that for me. But if
you if you are worried, in general, the liquid in your THC
tank should be not. If you tip it back and forth, it shouldn't
flow very quickly. In fact, that should be almost like syrup or
kind of like molasses, then you're probably okay. So that's
important because I don't want anyone dying from that shit. And
we'll hear that they may have found a culprit for these bogus
manufactured carts because these guys just buy him in China off
of Alibaba, and put their stuff in there. And the manufacturers
just think they're getting the same thing they always do. And
if they don't people die bad. Now let's get to the vaping
thing. The whole mission was to get state laws in place with
hundreds of lobbyists to have very lenient laws for tobacco
flavoured ie the main business of joule tobacco flavoured vape
products and to push everybody else out because they wouldn't
be able to afford the FDA testing procedure for your more
more popular vape liquids, which are ones with different flavours
and fruity and even mint actually, nor menthol. It got
better for them. Because of all this conflation of people dying.
And we don't know what's going on. It's all scary. The FDA
stepped in and created a rule above everybody else, which is
absolutely the best. And they announced it with the President
and the First Lady, you could not have asked for more if you
are the big player in the vape. Industry. Here's a clip from the
President in the Oval Office. Well,
they become very rich companies very fast. And the whole thing
with vaping is is a very profitable, and I want companies
look you know that I fight for companies very hard. And
what company is he fighting for pres
fight. That's why I'm fighting with China. That's why I'm
fighting with other countries. If you look at European Union,
and if you look at Japan, and if you look at so many others,
including South Korea and many others, were constantly dealing
with them to make it good for our companies because I view it
as jobs. I view it as income for our country and jobs. vaping has
become a very big business as I understand it like a giant
business in a very short period of time. But we can't allow
people to get sick and we can't have our youth be so affected.
Did
you see this is where it pisses me off, because there's no
evidence anyone got sick from an E Liquid vape experience. But
definitely from the THC in here, the President saying, Oh, we
don't want kids to get sick hearing it.
And that's how the first lady got involved. And she's got a
son together.
This was the people were obsessing over this one line on
Twitter instead of focusing on its Yeah, instead of focusing on
what's actually happening now. Well, it's not really his son.
All their heads exploded, oh, what is he saying can't allow
people to get sick, and we can't have our youth be so affected.
And I'm hearing it. And that's how the first lady got involved.
And she's got a son together. That is a beautiful young man.
And she feels very, very strongly about it. She's seen
it, we're both reading it. A lot of people are reading it. But
people are dying with vaping. So we're looking at it very
closely. And you know, if nothing else, this is a
conference that's going to let people know about it, because
people are going to watch what we're saying. And parents are
going to be a lot tougher with respect to their children. A lot
of people think vaping is wonderful. It's great. It's
really not wonderful. That's one thing I think we can say
definitely. Commissioner, it's not a wonderful thing. It's a
big problems, we have to find out the extent of the problem.
It's so new, it's so new, but we're gonna find out. And I hope
that parents that you have children and the children are a
certain age, I hope they're going to be able to make wise
decisions maybe based on what we're saying today.
Okay, so complete misinformation, blah, blah,
blah, for sure, children, and I'll just say under 18 should
not be vaping, nicotine or anything. None of that is good
for you and of developing body and, and marijuana isn't good
for you either if your brain is still developing, but let's see
what is really going to happen. So we have the Health and Human
Services, working together with the FDA. And here's the actual
announcement and you'll see what happens is the big guys win the
1000s of little companies who built the industry with their e
liquids will be squashed.
Today President Trump announced that the Food and Drug
Administration will be finalising guidance that removes
all flavoured e cigarettes from the marketplace other than
tobacco flavoured e cigarettes. Why is that important? We're
seeing an absolute surge in high school and middle school kids
using these flavoured products, mint menthol fruit flavour
alcohol flavour, bubblegum, gotta stop, but we're gonna have
a whole generation of children addicted to nicotine. And that's
just horrible. And President Trump as the great public health
leader that he is is going to put a stop to it. We're going to
let these tobacco flavoured e cigarette products remain on the
market until they apply for FDA approval. But that's just
because adults may need them to help with stopping smoking
cigarettes or cigars. But if we see actions that target these
products towards kids, or make them available to kids, or if we
see kids start flowing into tobacco flavoured e cigarettes,
we're coming after that too.
So under the guise of Oh, kids will start vaping because
they're attracted to the yummy flavours. As far as I know, kids
were always attracted to smoking things to cigarettes and menthol
and whatever. But that's the cover because jewel makes the
most popular tobacco product. So by the start of the new year,
all or actually will be probably about nine months, all flavoured
e liquids will be banned. Unless you get an FDA approval, which
is exactly what these small companies can't afford. It'll
cost up to a million dollars per flavour that you want to
introduce to the market. And of course, we'll see jewel
expanding their line from their tobacco flavoured they'll bring
back or they probably will never even get rid of their menthol
and they'll bring in their own and all the small guys are
effed. In fact, Jewel left the vapour Technology Association
over this dispute. And of course the vapour the vapour Technology
Association is pissed because these guys participated in
screwing them out of existence. I have here I have the final
image, not the one I wanted. Here's the MSSC NBC to talk a
little bit about the huge market ingest. Of course,
the fact of the matter is that we did a study and there are
almost 14,000 of vapour companies in the United States,
almost a 12,000 Those are retail vape shops, oftentimes mom and
pop shops and they sell a wide variety and a diverse product
range of flavoured vapour products to Dogs smokers, you
take those flavours off of the market precipitously. And what
will happen is those shops will shut down, we're talking about a
total economic impact of 166,000 jobs, 70,000 of which are direct
retail jobs, you take those products out of the market,
there is no business model for people just selling a tobacco
flavour. And the real harm here is the fact that those consumers
that are buying those products from them will have two options,
both bad and worse. The first option is that they go back to
smoking. And that's not what we're saying. It's what the FDA
said in open court in June, what they said in court was that
dramatically at precipitously removing vapour products from
the market will lead to an increase in smoking. And, and
the worst case is that it leads to more black market problems,
because that is what the American consumers have said
they will do they'll go to smoking or go back to the black
market.
So there's your there's your situation, and I don't know if
the President is just completely uninformed and dumb. I'm afraid
he actually it has an in with Altria. And someone lobbied and
word got up to him like oh yes, this is really what's happening.
People are really dying, but they're not they're not dying
from the E Liquid now, long term. I don't know. It's only
been around for 10 years. So we don't know the long term health
effects of vape liquid but for sure you have to be careful with
your THC and get it from a reputable source who has tested
it.
And that's what I got. Well, I'll ask you a question then.
Okay. When was vaping technology invented? Was it patented and
when did the patent run out? And why don't we hear about this
I don't know if that's a great question. Because I never said
it was a great question.
The hesitant to call it that
it's a question that's been on my mind because it seems to me
that somebody could have cleaned up on this you know if it was
patented, well, why wouldn't it You're smart.
Here's here's another minor twist to the story. Every single
vaporizer device comes from China every single one so I
don't know who if you know who or if there's even a patent I
have no idea may it may be very very old. The idea is not new
vaporizers are not new, but China makes everything that's
just another interesting little ripple in this whole rip
can't even make our own little battery.
I would think Elon Musk came up with the safe one but no so
yeah, I think it's I think it's just Chinese have flooded the
market. I don't think it makes any difference. No one can make
a cheaper I don't think there's any any companies here that make
I could be wrong, but I'll find out if if there's us made I'll
buy that I'll use that. And they did find a scapegoat. Thank
goodness in the illegal vape making business in the
manufacturing. This is people this is Wisconsin
asked me to pass is this one of the largest drug operations
you've had in Kenosha? I don't think it was, but of this type.
It's the largest we've ever had. And as far as I know, it's
probably one of the largest in the country. They found 31,200
vape cartridges filled already ready to be shipped out. Each
was filled with one gramme of THC. They found approximately
98,000 vape cartridges unfilled. And what they would do is they
would hire people, and they would they would actually pay
them $20 An hour and they would take THC oil which is on the
screen here. And they would take a syringe and they inject it
into the cartridges
they make it sound really scary. But the problem is this these
guys who is now known as the vape goat was probably cutting
it he was cutting it up with Vitamin E trying to you know to
dilute it make it work better with less THC make more money
and then you just can't be vaporising chemicals it's not a
good idea you know glycerin All right. Yeah, we have that and a
lot of stuff in your in your birthday cake. But Vitamin E
that was never part of the original formula. So that's what
we really have to be careful about. And all this squashing
and an entire industry will be gone gone in a year.
Very disappointing.
You're actually disappointed. Yeah,
I'm very disappointed in my government and I'd see the
president like that's fu man. Get a fucking clue.
Get a clue even
get a get a clue. Yeah, I find that extremely disappointing.
And the worst part is the mainstream media is
shocked and dismayed.
I predicted it. What are you talking about? I didn't imagine
it would come I'm thrilled.
Why are you even bringing up that, that you're disappointing
the present when you already predicted this behaviour?
I'm disappointed. Okay.
You would have been predicted.
I think I was pretty disappointed. But I didn't. I
wasn't prepared for the actual letdown of it all. But it's fun
to watch the M five M collude and conflate all these different
stories into scaring everybody going along with the programme.
I have to stop you now.
Do you use the word conflate way too often in this report?
No, I actually the reason I did it is because the previous
report I said conflate and I said, No, that's not the word.
And I went back and looked it up and I decided to use it for the
report. I've used it twice, but thanks.
Don't fucking me. No, no, three. Okay. All right, fine. I'm just
telling you, you're supposed to report these things.
Yes. Okay, got it. So,
I think that summarises the whole thing is still missing
patent. And also, I think it might be interesting to know how
this who started this craze in the first place,
which craze the vape craze? Yeah, that that is an
interesting question. I don't know. But is it 10 years I know
but someone someone is ground zero of this?
Yeah, someone somewhere just gets no credit.
Yeah, it's probably some hipster with a man bun. So you know, we
may not want to find the answer to that.
It probably is some hipster with a man bun. As a matter of fact.
The next big piece of news would undoubtedly be Brexit.
Why, wow, what's news about Brexit?
Oh, well, we got a whole bunch of fun things happening. And of
course now the now the parliament is in pro rogue so
they have been suspended. Well, actually, here's the BBC who
have a little recap of what happened this week. In Brexit.
It's been a
long and often dramatic parliamentary session. And as it
came to an end, it was a long and dramatic night. As a
ceremony for corrugation got underway a group of MPs staged a
protest around the speaker's chair holding up signs saints
do want to make the point that this is not a standard or
normal. prorogation. ATS require any assistance from you Mr.
Stevenson, you wouldn't have the foggiest idea where to start in
seeking to counsel me on this.
I require no response from you, I require.
And then there were cries of shame directed at Conservative
MPs as they left the chamber.
It all followed a fiery
debate in the commons, where MPs again rejected the idea of a
snap election in mid October. And Boris Johnson again
reiterated that he has no intention of delaying Brexit.
This government will not delay Brexit any further, we will not
allow the emphatic verdict of the referendum to be slowly
suffocated by further drift and paralysis. While the opposition
run from that duty to answer to those who put us here, they
cannot hide forever. The moment will come when the people will
finally get that chance to deliver their verdict, Mr.
Speaker on how faithfully this house executed
say what I just saying he's, he's he is well just play the
whole thing. But it seems that he right there either said
there's going to be a people's vote or there's going to be a
new election
commandment. Welcome when the people will finally get that
chance to deliver that verdict, Mr. Speaker, on how faithfully
this house executed their wishes, and I am determined that
they will see that it was this government who was on that side.
He's saying he's saying the verdict was to leave and they
will get their chant. He finally they will get a chance to decide
who was good and bad. I think that's his his way of saying we
are going to have an election. But Boris Johnson is being
attacked it on two fronts. One is the legality of the pro rogue
which we discussed and there's been kind of floating out there
that he could be arrested because it's illegal. And in
essence what he did is he lied he lied. I to the Queen.
Did you lie to the Queen when you advised her to prorogue to
suspend parliament?
Absolutely not. And that, and indeed, as I say that the High
Court in England plainly agrees with us. But the Supreme Court
will have to decide we need a Queen's speech, we need to get
old and do all sorts of things.
So I'm not sure where that is, but the latest and this is
almost like, you know, anti Trumpian stuff what they're
doing now they've they figured out how to bring Boris Johnson
down everybody. They've here's here's the story, job Boris
Johnson's backers. So his, his campaign funders and people who
support his mission are all making hundreds of millions on
shorting the market and it's clearly collusion. So the BBC
interviewed one of these donors Crispin eau de, who has already
made 220 million pounds from shorting the markets. I don't
know exactly what he was shorting but he's shorting
shorting the markets, shorting talents,
fresh new matino oda Ibaka, the morning has gold in its mass.
And never has one felt so much. That that idea as this morning
really,
I discover Crispin has two Reasons to be Cheerful, Brexit
and bonds. Overnight, he's made 220 million quid betting markets
will collapse as his campaign succeeds.
I still think tomorrow they can take it all away from me. He
knew that because I've lived for too long in the Euro world. He
might have been up all night, but I feeling fresh as a daisy.
So they got the perfect guy with the evil laugh.
That's not very clear on what this guy did. I mean, he's
obviously playing the I mean, the only thing the only thing
that I can see somebody like that can make that much money
overnight is playing currency. Well, you can play up this
bullcrap The
report said monads. Which is possible because
well, that shorting bonds I'm just telling you what that
report What world are bonds, short double bonds going down.
I'm just telling you what the reporting is what the reporting
saying. The reporting is saying there should be that Boris
Johnson's backers are have been shorting the market. And they
know exactly what Bo Jo is going to do. And so they're just
cleaning up it's it's all of his bullcrap that just making stuff
up to make Boris Johnson look bad, which is what you do. But
what really came out to the forefront this week was
Operation yellow hammer. And we talked about yellow hammer in
January as the secret plan for what the UK will do in the worst
case, no deal Brexit scenario. It was kind of laughed at is
what does this mean? It doesn't exist. It's not real. Now it's
out in the open. Now it turns out to be real.
The British government's worst case Brexit scenarios makes for
a bleak read, potential panic buying and public disorder. A no
deal departure could mean severe disruption to cross channel
routes, problems for fuel, medical and fresh food supplies,
and protests and counter protests across the country.
Operation yellowhammer was published on Wednesday, after a
request from lawmakers prepared on August the second it says
public and business readiness for no deal outcome would likely
be low. The document states lorries could have to wait up to
two and a half days to cross the English Channel and British
citizens could face more immigration checks that EU
border posts disruption could last a possible three months.
Information sharing between police and security services
would also be affected document operation yellowhammer first
came to light in the Sunday Times newspaper on August the
18th Michael Gove minister in charge of no deal preparations
said then that the document was not up to date. Despite handing
the information over on Wednesday he refused to do the
same with advice from government advisors about suspending
Parliament
so that's just a big fractious was
also just like that one thing and their district police won't
be able to talk to each other because of this. Oh, yeah,
that's the net. What's the internet gonna go down to the
power grid? No,
no, that
goes so this is can bring any power over?
Well, I'm going to take you there. This is part of black
vulture. See, see black, the yellow hammer and black vulture?
These Brits, man, they're nuts in Parliament. So black vulture
is showing all these things that that will happen but also what
the EU was planning. So when we talk about the police not being
able to come indicate that's because of the technology.
They're using these digital radios and gosh, I guess the EU
controls the frequencies or something of that nature. And
then we had Lord James of Blackheath, who's kind of a
backbencher blowhard, although we talk softly, and he threw the
bombshell down in Parliament, saying, Well, let me just tell
you, we better get out. Because if we don't, you know, the
European army is going to take over, we have
this wonderful paper called The yellow hammer, which tells us a
little bit dreadful things which will happen if we do go no go.
Now my secretary is going to return to the minister, which is
called the black vulture, which is my list of the things which
they don't know about, which will happen if we don't go no,
no deal. And the first of those is the has of equates to the
crowd. But the second, will somebody please tell us the
truth about the European Defence union is by far the biggest
issue facing British public and they know nothing about it
officially, can we please have a proper account of what it
entails? Is it really true that the government has entered into
private agreements with the European community that they
will On completion of remain or whatever it is to be transferred
to the European Union in Brussels, the entire control of
our entire fighting forces, including all very quickly, you
may, you may just a lot, but it has been done. And you must
check it out. It is too important to ignore, we must
know the truth of this, we must have it clear for the whole
public to know I believe it is true. And I think we should be
done, I have understanding that it is intended that the oath of
every serving member of our forces will be cancelled, and
they will be required to undertake a new oath of loyalty
to Brussels. And we have had, in recent months, I understand a
series of a series of people sent from our armed forces to
create and instal the command and control centres to be used
for the control of our troops once we have been ceased to have
any control over the use application, old deployment.
So a lot of fear mongering going on. I like that one. Yeah, it's
black vulture.
And by the way, long term, whatever he said, is totally has
to be true, because that's the way this thing is set up to go.
Even though we were promised no European army.
Well, we are new. Well, you and I have both documented many a
moment when they're talking about European armies because of
where you can't trust the United States, you know, NATO and all
the rest. So that they admit they're already headed that way.
Yeah. And and at some point, it will be one unified European
army in the band, the Brits will be part of it. If they remain,
which they will?
Well, here's, here's the thought that I had.
And it it explains a few things that we've discussed previously.
So the UK they held her actually I have the have the comp laws of
the referendum, just hear all of the politicians all the talking
heads, from the beginning of this saying it's going to be a
referendum. It's a one referendum we're not going to do
a second one is whatever the people say it's a go will
be no second referendum. That second referendum
arguments simply doesn't hold water. No, I don't think we need
a second referendum.
I'm sorry, I'm not one of those people who thinks we should be
calling for a second referendum. A second referendum would be
there's no second vote, we will not be taking a
decision like this. Again, in our lifetime.
This is a once in a generation vote once in a generation choice
the once in a lifetime decision that once
ever chance
for once and for all position, a one off choice between staying
in or leaving completely.
There won't be another referendum on Europe. This is
it. If with country decide to
quit, then we're out for good. There's no going back. You vote
to leave. We're out. That's it. We're going
whatever the British people decide. We worked together
constructively to make that happen.
I don't think it would be right for parliament to try and
unravel the decision that the public have made the British
Parliament Parliament should deliver what is required of that
decision of the British people.
We'd have to accept the will of the public. Whatever the result
is, we have to respect it. Labour accepts and respects the
results of the referendum
have we got to accept result? Yes. And Parliament
should respect that referendum result. We've said that all
the way through
we respect the decision of the British people in
that referendum. We
respect the bolts of the referendum and we have to accept
the decision of the referendum and genuinely accept the result.
The Labour Party accepts that we are leaving the European Union
Britain
is leaving the EU we're leaving the European Union. We're
leaving the European Union. We're leaving the European Union
Britain is leaving the European Union. Yes, we're leaving the
European
Union, we are leaving the European Union
will leave the EU in March 2019.
So of course, March came and went, and the will of the people
has not been done. It has not been executed. Everybody was
clear. You heard it right there. One vote. That's it. In or Out.
Winner Take All we're good to go your democracy in action. And
parliament who represents the people have not done this
best because they don't want to do it. But there's something
that really stands out like a sore thumb with that clip clip
harsh. Which is the new meme that keeps floating around?
Well, when people voted to leave, they were voting to leave
with a deal
that No, yeah, that's that's what they're trying to weasel
in.
There's zero evidence of that, that I don't remember it at the
time. And now they keep saying, well, people voted to leave but
they voted to leave with no they didn't. They would just what you
said if it that one guy just says something like we're, yeah,
we vote leave, we're out. That's what they voted for. They voted
to just get out. They didn't vote for a deal. They voted
to get out. Now, here's the difference between the United
Kingdom who have as they themselves say, an unwritten
constitution. The BBC repeats it. Everybody says an unwritten
constitution and United States that has a constitution. In our
preamble, we have an important part. Governments are instituted
among men deriving their just powers from the consent of the
governed, that whenever any form of government becomes
destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter
or to abolish it. And to institute new government, laying
its foundation on such principles and organising its
powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to affect
their safety and happiness. This is why we have the first
amendment because you're allowed to stand up and say Screw you,
we should take you guys down, if that doesn't work. And this is
where we really differ because the unwritten constitution of
the United Kingdom lets you talk a big game. But if that doesn't
work, we have the Second Amendment. And this if this was
happening in the United States, it wouldn't happen. The vote
would be a vote and we'd be done. It would be gone because
the politicians would be afraid of the amount of guns pointing
at them. If we did not do the will of the people. This is this
is the exact reason why the threat has to be there. Because
you're not going to go you and I know it, they're never going to
leave. Then the European army I'm sure will take over the
British Army or whatever, you know, Dad's Army. So this is
this is your reason right here. So scoff all you want Brits with
your knife crime, but just the threat of Americans having
enough guns to take out every politician and form our new
government makes them do what we want them to ultimately,
no separate vapes.
I don't think it's quite such an issue as remaining in the
European Union, whether you can vape a flavour or not, but okay.
They should be careful. Get some
blue, you're on a roll here with this dis the second time in
within, I think two or three shows that you have gone on
this. The reason for the Second Amendment rant aimed mostly at
the Brits, because it's a perfect example. Well, it is a
very good example. I am not going to argue it but it's
interesting that you something has triggered this in you. This
has something to do with the Brits.
Yes, because I live there. I know how the British people
think and they are outraged. Even the ones that want to stay.
Just can't believe that that what their what their
representatives are doing.
And
you know, what do they have tire irons, pitchforks, you know,
vape vape sticks, what are they? What are they kind of take to
the street? What are they going to go to Westminster with?
Nothing, nothing was luckily there's one guy one guy you can
always count on the common man of the British people to say it
like it is. And that's Ringo Starr.
The people voted and you know, they have to get on with it. Not
suddenly, it's
like oh, well we don't like that vote. And what do you mean you
don't like that thought that you had the boat? This is what one
let's get on with it. Would
you have voted that way? If you voted for Brexit yet I would
have voted to get out. But don't tell Bob Geldof Why did you vote
that way? Ringo? Because I think it just I think it's a great
move. I think you know, to be in control of your own country is a
good move.
And I think a lot of the Brits think like Ringo, who's the
common man
yeah. The common multimillionaire to be in
control of your own country is a good idea. Is that like is great
thought for the day? Hey, hello. What were you guys doing before
this dude?
The only song he wrote was when I'm 64. So give him a break.
Okay, he's
not already re or 16
He's not the Master of Crows. He's just a octopuses garden.
And I was kind of good. Yeah, so is it? Am I triggered? Yeah.
It's obvious that what is it? You know, you listen to what
what's going on? Like, every single politician take away the
guns by back. How's that working out for Australia? No, this No,
no. And it should be
mad every single politician on the Democrat side of the ledger.
Yes. Well, the SB specific here. Well, they're the number of
Republicans that are all in with the Democrats. on that issue is
extremely it's like a couple of people that shouldn't be
Republicans.
But that's the conversation right now. Oh, yeah. And you
know, and then it devolves into he for sport for hunting. You
don't need it. You need to take out 20 politicians, you need a
big magazine. But let's not bullshit about it. Let's just
this it's in the Constitution. It says it right there. This is
why we have it. And we like shooting stuff in general. Like
blowing stuff up. We got a big country that's in space to blow
stuff up.
Yeah, you got to the Arizona desert, and you can just shoot
all you want. And there's nobody even here the bullets. The
sounds of the gun. Yeah.
So I think we can't have the same stupid conversation.
Everyone else is having no comprehensive background checks.
We already have background checks. The comprehensive
not comprehensive enough.
That's probably yes. They're not maybe not free answer. Common
sense. Common Sense. Gun laws. That's another one of my
favourites. Common sense, man. It's common sense. You don't
need that scary looking thing. Well, now you know why? Because
if the Brits had guns, this would not be the situation. But
that's just the simplest way to explain it.
Yeah, but it has to be a law. Yeah. You can't just give them
guns now. I mean, the problem is, you don't have if you're
raised without with a good this kind of suppressed notion of buy
a gun ownership and his hotends been there for hundreds of
years. Yeah. And is beaten into you. If you all of a sudden cut
that loose and give everyone guns they'd be they'd be
shooting the place up. They'd be going nuts. Yeah, that would be
entertaining.
It would be great for the show. But
they're not getting out of this thing. They're stuck. Yeah, I
don't see I was talking to a friend of mine in London the
other night over his house on Skype because he's doing he's
the writer and he's doing his story. And I asked him about
what he thought about all this and he I said do you think is
John's gonna get us out on the 31st Or what are the biggest
31st 31st of October no chance No
no no way and the brittle just go Oh good.
You
can hear him they give people just give up at a certain point
and then you know there's forget about it. Sad
well, more importantly in in another sub segment in so far as
climate is concerned, you know, Greta was on the Democracy Now
show and there's a couple of items and get to two short
clips. Greta Thunberg
the autistic climate change protester Yeah,
can you you pronounce her name? Greta Thunberg.
Thornburg Thun Berg. I think it's Thun Berg.
You want to hear how it's pronounced.
I'd love to hear how it's pronounced. Yes.
Let's hear her tell us how to pronounce it. How to Pronounce
foon Berg. Okay,
so why don't we start at the beginning. There's great
controversy and it's how you pronounce your name. Can you say
your full name for us?
To buddy
and that's the Swedish version.
Okay, got it. I can do is I'm sorry. I didn't do the accent.
Okay, give it to us. Good that you didn't be. Let's compare.
Let's compare. There's no G in there. Yes, she
does. She swallows the G gratitude big.
So why don't we start at the beginning. There's great
controversy and it's how you pronounce your name. Can you say
your full name for us? feel very good that you bet against Jamal
Khashoggi. And that's the Swedish version. And yes, you
come to the United States, people are calling you by
different names. Can you tell us how you should have adapted?
Sure,
sometimes it's cool Berg, sometimes Thunberg. I mean,
pricing is funny that everyone pronounces it differently,
differently. So that is just I don't mind anyone pronouncing it
wrong. There's no wrong way to pronounce it. Everyone
pronounces it in no way.
So say again, how you were born, what your parents called you,
buddy.
Wow, that's riveting stuff on Democracy Now. Did they get into
any conversation about how she's been abused, and she's, for the
past five years by your parents consent around the world?
It turns out, it doesn't even seem like your parents got rid
of the base abusers. Because they were somewhat responsible.
They stood they do have this discussion. I didn't pick up I
didn't pick up any of that good climate change. I just was
trying to draw the things out of this this interview. And this
one is her on her. She became a depressive when she was eight.
Because because of climate change, because she started
reading, and nobody was guiding her. So they said, giving her
any sceptical
you know, they probably were encouraging her Oh, yes. Oh,
yeah, it's horrible. You're going to die
you're gonna die from so let's but it turns out that her
parents weren't all in and she got depressed. But this and this
is her. It's a long clip. It's two minutes. And but it is
fascinating. Because this poor girl at eight at the age of
eight, who has Aspergers and discusses it, Bill Gates has a
very similar ailment. So it doesn't really hurt their
ability to focus, that's for sure. In fact, it enhances it.
And so she so she's a focused little girl. And she went into a
deep depression, and it lasts over a year. And this was She's
eight. It's really a disgusting. Sad, but in some ways,
disgusting story.
You went through a crisis in that period after you were eight
years old. Can you talk about what you went through?
Yeah, it was, after that I sort of caught up with reading about
and I understood. And that made me very depressed. Of course,
when, when you are the only one who really reacts about this
crisis, and everyone else seems to just, okay, it's very
important, but I am too busy with my life. And I just thought
that it was very strange that no one else was behaving in a
logical way. And so I
would that logical way have been
to do something, to step out of your comfort zone. And to
realise that, okay, we cannot continue, like we have done now
we need to do something drastically. And I and I are
going to do everything I can do to help to push in the right
direction. And but no one seemed to do that my parents were just
like, continuing like before my classmates, every one of my
relatives. I mean, no one was, no one seemed to care about
these issues, except me. And that was a strange feeling.
And so you just send it into a depression.
Yes. It was, of course, caused by many reasons. But that was, I
think, the biggest reason to it, because I just thought that
everything is just so wrong, and everything is so strange. And
everything is so sad. And why isn't anyone doing anything
about this? And so then I fell into a depression. And it lasted
for maybe a year or something and then I use talk talking,
yeah, I stopped witnessing to because I have selective mutism,
or at least had, they said, if sometimes grows away, that I
only spoke to some people, my teacher, for instance, my
parents, some members of my family, and so on. And I stopped
eating almost entirely. I only it was a big problem. I lost a
lot of weight, because I was just so depressed. Nothing
seemed to matter anymore.
Well, I'm actually glad that they showed this and I hope
parents watch this and got a clue
and nobody watched it to get a clue. This is what I know the
audience because all that's that poor woman. I wish we could do
more about climate change. Oh,
no. The poor, the poor child got depressed because of all the
climate change talk.
You say that? I'd say that. Yeah. But that's not doing
anyone else is gonna see it.
Well, maybe there's a few people who listen to our podcast
a few. Well, I, our audience season. I hope so. Yeah, it's
just a bizarre, you know, I don't want to say we're
outliers. But I mean, the way they were playing it is this
throw this poor girl you noticed this client we've reduced about
climate change, you wouldn't have gotten depressed. That's
the way I'm imagining them. Looking at it from that
perspective. Yeah. Anyway, so she was on there doing her
thing. She said she had selective mutism. So which
that's really cool. We talked about that on the Scott Adams
interview when he was having his problem with
Oh, right. He had mutism too. But it
was like it was also selective.
I don't recall the term though selective mutism. Well, he
never used the term selective mutism. I never heard the term
that term until she said it. But it was the same thing where you
can talk, Scott could talk, fine. Talk to anybody.
He could talk to himself.
I think there's maybe a couple of people you could talk to, but
he couldn't talk to anybody else. And that's what this would
have been to her. She couldn't talk to anybody. Certain people.
I mean, I thought I could continue until deep in my night
in my 90s doing podcasting of what could really stop me. But
what if I develop selective mutism
as possible? I wouldn't be horrible happened anybody? Well,
it depends on your perspective, whether it be horrible or not.
Well,
it's not great as a podcaster.
Probably, I'm guessing no. Although it although talking,
apparently, with selective mediums, you can talk to nobody.
And from what I can tell most podcasts, really talk to nobody,
so I think he'll be relaxed.
Yeah, that's where I have I've far fewer ticks when doing the
show all by myself. Because you know, I'm talking to nobody.
Talking to
me, Oh, well, there you go. Selective Mutism.
I have I have the latest chant from the extinction rebellion
crowd.
They have a new Is it a new chant? I
believe it is. Altogether, there is no future on a dead planet.
Oh, that's interesting, because I was hearing it wrong. What did
you think there were so is hearing something something
there's no two terms? I thought it was some antitrust goodness.
Well, if you play it again, and then listen for it, no. Two
terms.
No, no. No two terms. No, two terms. I really. I could get a
Lego here. No two terms.
No two terms. They're saying no future. Yeah. But it's like it's
no two tourney whoever Mike that chant needs to be arrested. Oh,
wait. It was just the
iPhone video. sweeping across a bunch of people. That's all it
was? Oh, I went I did maybe say that. I could do that quickly. I
went to the community, first village here in Austin, who are
solving the unhoused problem in their own unique and incredibly
successful way. Okay, little update. First of all, the guy
who started this, Alan Graham has a podcast. And I listened to
a couple episodes. He started this I think about 11 years ago.
And so he took me on a tour I want to it's this it's south
it's past the airport a little bit it's I think they have 250
people renting tiny homes, a variety of different types of
dwellings, ranging from $275 a month to $500 a month, and the
275 there's communal bathrooms and cooking etc. At the 500.
It's like almost like an RV pretty much so you have
everything on board, and two people per per house per
structure. But he took me on the on the tour. And what was most
interesting, I think, for the show, is that the concept for
what they're doing community first, the community first
village is based on a book called Chasing well not really
the book bought on experiments that were detailed in chasing
the scream. And I didn't I think I think I recognise that the
title of the book but then when he said the author is Joe Han
Hari, then it hit me like Ah, of course Johann Hari is the guy
who wrote connections that we talked about extensively, which
is also you know, Part of that outgrowth is our meetups, how
important it is to have human face to face contact. And we
played a couple clips back back then. And what Harry details in
his book, it was research from the 70s, where they threw a rat
into a cage with food, water and cocaine. And within 60 days, the
rat was coked out and died. They same cage, except they built a
couple of tunnels and had a few structures and they put more
than one rat in there. And after 60 days, they were flourishing
the baby rats comment now 5% of the coke had been used because
the rats did like the coke. But they were not dying. They were
in fact, they were flourishing. And so he used one example, he
says, if you're downtown, and John over here walks out of his
house in the morning without his pants on his dick is hanging
out, I'm using his words, then what you do downtown Austin is
you call the cops and haven't picked up and he goes through a
whole process and it's not necessarily a positive thing and
may not have a positive outcome. But in the community first
village, he walks outside and his thing is hanging out and the
neighbours would come over and say, Hey, man, you know, you put
your pants on, this is not okay. And you'll probably go oh,
shoot, I just put the pants on. And let's go talk to somebody
and just make sure okay. And the according to him, because we
talked a lot about drugs. The number one reason people become
homeless is loss of family, which I think you could also
substitute for loss of community and the success rate they have.
And these are people who were referred by multiple
organisations in Austin from the arts, the first step, keratitis.
If you have Social Security, if you have disability, that's
typically enough to actually pay for your rent, you have to have
some kind of sustainable income to pay your basic rent. And if
you don't have a job, there's multiple jobs on site. And
they're now expanding to 500. More, more capacity for 500 more
people. So it'll be a total of about 700 people in this village
where people are functioning, they're going into Austin to
work, they have a community, there's no trash. People do
drugs in their homes, they don't do crazy stuff. They don't run
around like nut jobs, typically. They have a car detailing
service, of course, they got hand handicrafts, etc. And they
do it all on $6 million a year. That's all that this
organisation needs to keep running gait, they get nothing
from the city, nothing from the state, they do it all
themselves. And I saw it working, it seems to be really,
really good. programme and I and they had the one of the first
tiny homes that was 3d printed on premises. So I took a look at
that. That was kind of cool. Because it look, it's, well, it
looks like Plato, you know, if you were to
ask, that's what it looks like when they're making it.
thing is they're not cost cost effective yet. So it's just too
expensive. You know, they put a tiny house down from wood boom
is done. This you got to put out a big concrete slab. And that's
really expensive. You still have to put the roof on. There's no
3d print 3d printing the roof. But now, maybe maybe that I'll
get cheaper over time, but there's just building little
tiny homes and it's working.
How many places you have
right now for 250 people. So there's over 100 homes or 100
tiny homes and phase two adds an additional 250 or 300 I think
homes
can a scale up to 40,000 people which is what we have over into
San Francisco. Now I asked
him about that. And he said we're never going to go we're
never going to leave Austin to do anything outside of Austin,
but they do monthly symposia, seminars and they give the whole
blueprint that exactly how you can replicate this and and those
symposiums are full and people are trying to replicate this all
over the world now trying to create this kind of village.
So that was
very interesting to see a different take on what causes
homelessness, and how to solve it by providing community and
it's it's not if I got an email from some guy, you guys have
footage shared with you. We did have you complaining about them
building houses affordable housing. Now this is all part of
the Housing First. That's the that is the California theory
that you're going on. It was invented in California and
that's it even has a wiki page. Housing First is relatively
recent innovation and when they want to say solution but the
current innovation in human service programmes and social
policy regarding treatment of people who are homeless, and is
an alternative to a system of emergency shelter transitional
housing progressions. So their concept is and this I think is
what Austin is following. Rather than move In homeless
individuals through different levels of housing, whereby each
level moves them closer to independent housing. Housing
First moves the homeless individual or household
immediately from the streets or homeless shelters into their own
accommodation. But this just it proven, it just doesn't work.
This is California system Housing First. And Austin is
following that nicely. Except for you know, I guess community
first village is probably taking up 15% of the homeless
population. Maybe they'll get to 25 or 30. But the Austin is
spending 10s of millions in the wind that you know, this is
gonna spend 8 million on a shelter. You could fund the
whole village for a year.
You sound like you should be the PR guy for this guy.
Well, it's a nonprofit. They need some help.
Yeah, well help them. Yeah, well, I'm
going to mls.org Mobile Loaves and Fishes. And it is religious
based, although there was no pushing that I saw. Were
witnessed. Which
religion are we talking about?
I don't know. The whole thing is a is a ministry. So I don't
know. I didn't ask. I wasn't interested.
Listen, I would ask because there's always some tax angle.
Well, it's a nonprofit, so their tax angle is there. You know,
they publish a nine, nine year look at all that they do about
800 900,000 a year in rent now. From there from their residents.
And then they're gonna have a whole medical centre with 16
people full time on staff. Fantastic. Solutions are there
but you know, it's not invented in city council. It's not what
the Californians are doing so could never be right.
Yeah, well, we do as the best
you guys got it nailed for sure.
Tent City. Yeah, that's the community.
It is but you need to have community members who are not in
exactly the same boat. But yes, this is why you see people
congregate and create their own community and the community
sadly, is a community of typically drugs.
Yeah, their share needles. Yeah.
So you need to understand the community aspect and put them in
a better situation.
Well, this is your exit strategy.
3d printing Halima homes for the homeless everybody I'm retired
CSI Nora I have a feeling that's not going to work all right,
well then maybe with that since you didn't jump in with anything
I can last boy for
the whole life say let me jump jumps kind of befuddled to jump
in with anything here. I can tell you what to jump I do want
to paddle a little bit with a jump in now
I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning
to you the man who put the C and community John C.
Blender morning to you Mr. Adam curry. Also in the morning all
ships to see boots on the ground, feet in the air stops in
the water. And all the days and nights out there in
the morning to our trolls in our no agenda stream.com Troll room
or wherever you're always there hanging out how many trolls do
we have here today? Let me have a quick look. Low count 921 Did
everyone retweet that we were live? That's where you can
always listen to our show live many shows live. In fact, right
before our show. There's Darren Oh did a great pre stream this
morning. So no agenda stream.com is where you want to check that
out. And also in the morning to comic strip blogger who did a
piece of artwork that was perhaps the most the simplest
we've seen with such an enormous explosive laughter effect. And
this, of course, was the Melania Sharpie enhancement that we use
for our album art on episode 1171.
Yes, it was the again, comic strip blogger came in with
simplicity yes to win the day.
It's it was it was so simple, because we had we had some
pretty intricate pieces of art for 71. We had to add some
vaping stuff. What was it? Was there anything that we that we
also that we look at anything else that we liked?
Do you recall Yeah, there was one piece that I thought was
your dinette headed it was that in looking at it now. Oh, Darren
O'Neill had the disciples that was okay. Uh, I mean, it was it
was really it was good and we just looked at we both looked at
it and just cracked up and when you have an explosive laughter
right off the bat, that's got to be the one
now. Yeah, well, sure, a lot better and explosive diarrhoea.
We we did have a slight conflict, having the First Lady
as the artwork prominently showing her bosom and then
calling the episode slutty vegan.
Yes, yeah, it was an issue I had.
It was a consideration. But then we went asked Screw it. We might
as well go for it. I think people,
we had to use the art and we had to use the title for some
reason. Yes, there was no better title, that's for sure. And that
but that piece really stood out
and really want to thank comics for blogger for that because it
just nailed it. Finally that Apple Pencil came in handy.
Happy to hear that no agenda art generator.com is where you can
upload your artwork for consideration as album artwork
for the current show. It's a tough racket man, people are
doing these while we talk on the show. It's incredible what our
artists do. And you can see all of their work at no agenda, art
generator.com And we thank all of them for their courage and
their art artistry. And we also like to thank our producers,
particularly ones who helped us in financial manner and we do
our associates Associate Executive producers and the
executive producers up front and we have a couple for today I
think even better we have to
do is to right we have two associates two executives so

He has a pic attached some writing. Hey,
Eric sent them together in the email. Yeah, yeah, it's
a sign from the above to help produce this episode of the
show. I'm so appreciative of last time I donate I asked for
an ICU karma and it worked. Thank you. The Sunday show. My
son was allowed to come home that following Monday not only
to straddling both dimensions, helping raising a toddler and
dealing with other insane millennial parents. But it aids
me in my freelance work as a copywriter marketer. Seriously,
you both helped me figure out just how much amygdala juice
needs to be peppered into copy. This time I'd like some jobs
karma, Nancy, please. Jingle request. China is as whole and
that's true. Oh, same combo. Yeah, of course. random numbers.
That's how the craps table works. Gio requests China's
asshole that's true. Shout out producer Christine who I hit in
the mouth as as and is the inventor of the no agenda
invisible hat.
Oh yes, there goes. There goes the drone hat is flying what a
great invention, Chinese jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs for jobs.
And that's it. That's our list of our four well wishers and
producers for show 1172
tidy and balanced lists. And we appreciate that this is our
value for value system. That's how it works where we do a show
we asked you what is it worth to you then we could you spend your
time in a different way or how have you valued your time in
other situations, particularly when it comes to entertainment
news products. And this is what people come up with and it warms
my heart and I can't wait to think more people in our second
donation segment. But these four have to have an executive
producer title and Associate Executive Producer title which
you can use anywhere credits are recognised they are important
and they are real. And you can support us for the next show
which will be on Sunday please remember us at
vorak.org/n A and
now you can go out and tell everybody exactly what's going
on with the fake wars.
Our formula is this we go out we get people in the mouth
so I managed to step over on your beat. Oh, so you weren't
wait on Wait sealed indictments?
Yeah, no, no, not to seal that. That's still yours. Darn sealed
indictments. No, I went to CNN.
Oh, my goodness. I will admit I've been watching more CNN
these days and MSNBC. As CNN still kind of pretends
MSNBC just harder they pretend to Erin Burnett.
Well, I'm sure during the day or Erin Burnett is she could be on
MSNBC. She has so much hate and
she makes stuff up she says she doesn't just tell it give us a
news you she embellishing it with what the person's thinking
and all this crazy stuff which is just so far above and beyond
In a sort of journalism, I have five clips. All right. First of
all, let's start with and I went in there too. It's actually
really three clips because there's this one standalone clip
and the other ones are related. But that is first of all this
got me right off the bat, which is this is her discussing the
firing of John Bolton and this is the clip called blindsides.
Bolton. Sorry,
hold on. There we go front tonight. It was personal. We're
learning more this hour about the bitter breakup between Trump
and Boulder. source tells CNN that President Trump turned on
his now former national security adviser. He thought Bolton made
him look bad this week. Trump wanted to humiliate Bolton in
exchange. There's Bolton at the White House a 40 4am. This
morning, work as usual, taking the phone call outside he then
went in and led a meeting with top administration officials.
Oh, and then boom, boom. The operative part of that tweet,
quote, I informed John Bolton last night that his services are
no longer needed at the White House. Well, that's not Bolton's
version. Now. Sources tell CNN Trump was livid. The sources
seemed to be the source for story about how Bolton told
Trump that hosting the Taliban at Camp David was a bad idea.
Now Trump, of course was resoundingly slammed for that
summit. On 911 anniversary he felt Bolton was the one who made
him look bad. Tonight, Bolton is fighting back. So the President
says he's the one who fired Bolton and he did it last night
Bolton saying no way he resigned. Quote, I offered to
resign last night and President Trump said let's talk about it
tomorrow. Trump wanted public embarrassment for Bolton. He let
him come to work and take that call and be on camera press.
Bolton was going to appear at a briefing with the Secretary of
State Mike Pompeo and Treasury Secretary Steve Minuchin, who
were also blindsided by Trump Smith
was on the guidance to be here. So were you two blindsided by
what occurred today that he's no longer with the administration.
Was it news to you today? Because last night you were told
I'm never surprised it's quite it was quite astounding to see
the mainstreams defence of Bolton and to to just Micro
Focus on on five being fired. I mean, these people never been
fired before.
Well, here's the other thing this the report the way she does
it, because she's making stuff up. She's talking about how
somebody felt he had to humiliate him. We don't know.
Sources sources told me sources sources and then she says they
were blindsided and then they then they cut to a clip where a
reporter asks us they were blindsided. And after Burnett
asserts that they were blindsided. And then they asked
if they're blindsided and neither one of them said they
were blindsided. So this was the switch back. This is bullcrap.
They never said they were blindsided. They said, Well, we
nothing surprises and then they cracked up and laughed about a
thing. And it was hilarious. And that no one's blown TV. They
were blindsided. They didn't look like they were not irked,
blindsided people know. Anyway, so but let's go away. I do have
this blind size bolt and clipped you after. Okay, this is the
second part of this clip. So I guess an extra clip. Sorry. This
is the follow up to after that we watched these guys. laughter.
The following the following. They're good following and
they're laughing. And Burnett comes back on and says Listen to
what her interpretation of this is. Should
we maybe listen just to the end again, of the question about
being a blind sight? Yeah, that's probably a good idea.
Here we go.
was on the guidance to be here. So were you two blindsided by
what occurred today? That he's no longer with the
administration? Was it news to you today? Because last night,
you were told I'm never surprised. That on just this
issue.
Think about what Trump thinks hearing that I mean, look at
their faces again, decided to freeze it. They get it. They
work for a person who sudden rage and focus on personal
slights means that nothing is normal, and nothing can surprise
them. One source close to the administration telling CNN today
after the president's well whatever word you'd like to use
resignation firing. It's a real snake pit run by an erratic
president who is hard to manage and who brings out the worst
sensibilities and people.
This is sedition. Yellin Yeah, I mean, this is this what I was
kind of surprised by, but it wasn't. That was just one
example what they're doing now. Here's another one. So CNN This
is CNN boosting Liz Warren crowd. And or in this case, a
new clip is seen and boosting Liz Warren crowd size. This is
another way they started obsessing over. I mean, they
have Trump dead to rights on some of this And they could
easily they could use that against them. But instead they
go overboard and they make a big scene. And then they embarrass
themselves in a very peculiar way. And I want to see if I can
ask you to try to find it, but you probably won't be alert for
it. But there is a moment in this in these two in this to
clip set, that these people should be ashamed of themselves.
But let's play. CNN boosting Liz Warren crowd size,
Elizabeth Warren getting ready to speak to a big crowd in Texas
you see that live there? It is a red state that she wants to put
into play. And you know, when you look at all those people
gathering, she's not yet on stage. It does bring to mind
something interesting. Some of her crowds lately have even
exceeded. Some of Trump's bragged about crowd sizes. So
he's bragged about crowds recently, and then she's pulled
a crowd even bigger. I'll find out Keith Boykin, former Clinton
White House aide and Scott Jennings, former Special
Assistant to President George W. Bush. So Keith, you know, as we
look at that crowd here, we'll put him back up there waiting
for she's rising in the polls. Her crowd tonight wherever she
is, by far her crowds overall are the biggest in the
Democratic field. And as I point out, rivalling Trump's in some
cases, it's a sign you should be
worried about. Was it in this clip? Yeah,
I wish I would say she's she's rising in the polls is what I
heard.
Her crowd size was the biggest in the Democratic field bullsh.
Oh, no, that's got to be Bernie. Bernie has always been the
biggest day won't mention his crowd size because they're, they
don't want Bernie.
Women don't talk about size. John, don't you know that?
So don't talk about size. If it's Elizabeth Warren sighs Oh,
but Bernie, the biggest credit so she puts in his bogus meme
that oh, the biggest crowd size in the Democrat Party. She's
getting they're rising in the polls. She is rising in the
polls. And by one two notch. She's not jumping up in the
polls. Yeah, the poll is okay. She went up a point. But this
really galls me, because, again, this is a poor reporting. You
can't say that when and they completely ignore Bernie's crowd
sizes, which in many cases have always exceeded Trump's crowd
sizes as white Trump never brings it up.
In fact, did I not see Trump moved his North Carolina venue?
And I don't know what happened. But he was a lot less boasting
about it. And it seemed to be a much smaller venue than I
expected when I watched some of his stuff just a little bit
actually. Now it did have the effect he wanted because this
special election there in both elections Republicans won. But
yeah, crowds in fact, I gotta tell you, I think Trump's
rallies are that I mean they're no longer really TV interesting
for TV because he hasn't come up with any good new material
Yeah, his material stale. It's very skilled. Let's listen to
follow up on the Tron the boosting Liz Warren Kraus CNN
boosting Liz Warren crowd two
that these crowds are getting the attention of President Trump
but they are and they're, and they're working let's
I have crowds that are many times what her crowds are.
Nobody ever talks about them. Nobody wants to talk about them.
With her the other day, they say she had 15 If you really count
them up, it looked like about eight or nine. And the biggest
story were sir crowds. That's like a small crowd for me.
Yes, got one or something like that. I want to laugh. And then
I realised this is the reality of the world we live in. Okay.
Is he under estimating her as a challenge or is actually his
sort of obsession there as as strange as that was proof that
he is not under estimating her? Well, I think he's
probably watches more news coverage of his primary than any
of the three of us sitting here. And so when he sees news
coverage, it says somebody's getting big crowds. Obviously,
that perks up his ears. Look, I think they're gonna run against
her if she's the nominee, the same way they run against any of
them, you know, they're all basically coming out for the
same kind of programming across, you know, economic immigration,
national security issues. And so I think they'll end up treating
her the exact same way and try to make it a real choice instead
of a referendum on him. Do you want a more left leaning
socialist country here?
Do you want more, you know, free market, you know, type of
programming that I'm offering? Well, you know, the
strategist may try to do that, but he's gonna be yelling about
Pocahontas and crowds.
There she goes. Now, the worst of the group is the is the last
one. And this is about their tuck. She's got some guy on
who's a pollster or not upholsteries in the I guess he's
one that he's he's a strategist pollster. I don't know. But he's
talking about the approval ratings of the president which
are
40. They've always been pretty pretty. They're always
Yeah, but the approval rating of the president is discussed in a
way that I this is really has to be deconstructed and to see how
bad CNN is and really,
I have a question before we get into that question before we get
into it. So we have the polls. And then we have approval
ratings, which are either or they deduced from polls or it's
a different type of poll. I mean, it's all bullshit. We know
because Hillary was going to win 99%.
Well, it's a poll,
but they always have, but it's a specific poll.
By specific, it's a specific poll done by specific operation
on his specifically selected group
of people. Okay, so it's manipulation.
It's a little new house, not as much as you might imagine, it's,
it's probably fairly, I mean, it tends to lean left so slightly
wrong. But let's go with this. Let's listen to this. And
because now all of a sudden, there's some new new angle to
this CNN approval rating generality. Number one,
his approval rating is now at 39%. Okay, which is the lowest
for him in I believe, nine months, Obama, there was only a
43%. At this point in the first term, Clinton was only a 44.
They both won. Now I know, in the world of political polls,
you can say 39 versus 43. Big difference, but you know, it
doesn't sound like a big difference. Does the does this
low approval really matter?
Well, yes, and no, I don't think that the five point spread
between Obama and Trump is really statistically significant
in terms of where Trump stands. What's more important is the
larger trend, and the fact that for the entirety of his
administration, he has never once been above 50%. And the
public opinion poll averages. That's never happened in modern
polling before. We've never seen any president in modern history,
who's been so despised
really, whole life
Second, don't see really the that. The point is, is that the
approval rating does not is not an indication of your despising
somebody, a matter of you approving the job they're doing?
It's like, what's the approval rating? Is that you don't get a
pull thing? Do you have any you
despise hate the president you just hate or despise
when you despise Trump
not like, find annoying, despise and hate or what should despise
higher than hate?
I think so. We've we should do
the hate. Hate, we should do the hate poll. And
so the approval rating now has somehow become the despicable
rating. And so if you get 30 So in other words, 39% of the
public the way that they're couching this, and they continue
to do this, as the follow up clip indicates she'll use the
word despise again, to pound it home. So this was planned, and
there is no way you would put this in there unless you planned
it. So this is just a propagandistic trick. But so
what they're saying is that 30 Only through only 39% of the
public doesn't despise Trump is what they say, Oh, that's
great. Good job, everybody. We're just loads sitting on the
scale.
I don't know loads is, is I think is less than hate. But
more than responsive, it's kind of simmering, hate.
I'm telling you what, you need to do a cosmic weeny bit about
this. There's a
list in there. So So, so despise is not the when you're talking
about the approval rating of the President. It's got nothing to
do with despising the President even though I'm sure a few
people that voted no, I don't approve his job. Do despise
them. But that's not what the poll is, although they now made
us think that because they slipped that in, and then later
on clip to hear as there's the two of them are still chatting.
Aaron had to throw the word in again, even though she's flubbed
it, which is funny, which means the indicates to me that it was
something rehearsed or something they tried because yes, when you
flub on a show, that's when we flub as well. So it's a it's a
manos capture form and choke, Choke, choke chokes, but she
says it again, to just make sure that the public is can now
associate the approval rating of the President with despising the
President is disgusting and wrong.
An interesting point you make right keep it that that people
he won with a pretty despising set of numbers right so we want
despising set of numbers. choked Gosh,
I don't know what she was supposed to say despicable set
of numbers, but she said despising set of numbers that
must have thought to herself that sounded stupid, because
it's stupid to play that clip against something and just see
how stupid that really is.
It's an interesting point you make right keep it that people
he won with a pretty despising set of numbers right? So we want
It's
a pretty despising set of numbers is completely weird.
Was a non sequitur. It makes us a senseless, whatever she died,
who knows what she's talking about. But she had them for some
reason, get that word and again to make sure that we were, but
she screwed it up sometime. So the effectiveness was shot, shot
to hell, but you could tell it should do what they're up to.
But I was so I turn on CNN, I get this. And I'm thinking to
myself that I only have these clips. I'm thinking to myself,
this is a terrible network.
Well, I'm glad you caught that because I cannot watch Erin
Burnett anymore. I used to really enjoy watching her on
CNBC in the morning. And she was kind of, you know, bubbly and
she was not dumb. She she knew.
I did her show about 10 times. Was she
nice? And when you met Was it only we on long distance?
Distance? I wasn't in the studio with her. And she was pleasant.
Yeah. Nice. And it was quick. She's quick witted, very
quick. And she was and have a great team with Mark, who died
as she left and the guy died like six months later, a co host
Mark Kosis name again?
I don't know.
It's hard for me to watch. But the reason why she is not. Why.
Well, the reason why Bernie Sanders is just ignored, is
perhaps because he says stuff like this. Anybody
here know how much Amazon paid in taxes last year? I mean, I
talk about that all the time. And then I wonder why the
Washington Post, which is owned by Jeff Bezos, who owns Amazon
doesn't write particularly good articles about I don't know why.
So that would kind of explain you don't get an WaPo you get
bad press and WaPo you're not going to do very well on CNN
on the NYC The New York Times put a put a woman who is a
Bernie Sanders hater on him. And she writes all at Bernie Sanders
Metiria I had her name I remember a Bernie. If you look
at the New York Times, Bernie Sanders article, you see this
woman over and over again, not all of them, but most of them.
And she and she is just a pit bull. I mean, she is hates
Bernie Sanders. And she makes it clear in the articles that
Bernie is no good. So Bernie's got the New York Times is, I
mean, the New York Times is against both Bernie and Trump,
but you know, it's a little more sinister that they're against
Bernie so much. There was there against Bernie there against as
soon as the Walpole
Okay, so a couple things they've got to be for Liz, because Liz
is now tight with hills. And that's important when Hills is
close to somebody, they pay attention. They've been talking
behind the scenes, we don't know exactly what's going on. But
it's interesting. And if Hillary Clinton is on the side of one
candidate, that's going to be an anointed one. So that's one of
the main reasons why she has a lot of money. The New York Times
finally printed something earlier this week about all the
money she raised from, from big, big donors and lobbyists and
corporations before she went on. I'm not gonna take any money
trip. She's using money from her 2018 campaign, which was left
over from her Senatorial Campaign $10 million dollars
from there. So she's got money, there's, there's money to spend,
there's PAC so they know what side their bread is buttered on.
But there's so much it means you heard Bernie Sanders sounding
like Donald Trump. It's in fact it's it's almost verbatim a line
from Trump. Yeah, I talk crap about Amazon and then I get bad
articles in The Washington Post. Well, how can that be? And this
came up on a podcast, Matt Taiyi B's podcast I'd like Matt He
does a lot of outstanding work we had a couple of people on and
they they kind of came to a no agenda s conclusion which seems
to only happen when you do a podcast and not when you do
something on mainstream
they when they get up there and they say oh, you know who owns
the newspaper doesn't have any impact on our coverage or you
know, who advertises on our channel doesn't have any impact
on how we cover things? Everybody knows that's bullshit.
Like I've worked for news organisations that and have have
come up against the the problem of criticising an advertiser
before it comes up and and and beyond that it on an unconscious
level. It it's that's where it works is it works at the point
of hire, you know that if you start being a jerk about certain
things, you're not going to get promoted right company
hire in the first place. Right and it's not all over
why people like Jennifer Rubin and Max rise to the Op Ed page
and you know, in the Glenn Kessler's the world will, will
do fine. The point is denying all this just completely
undermines the credibility, right press with with huge
swaths of the public left and right
Wow, Matt, you sound like Trump. And the same people who are
making this point are like people who just accused the
press of of being biassed against Hillary Clinton. Oh,
right. Yeah, no.
I mean, it's all in the eye of the beholder, right. I mean,
like, my bias exists everywhere. And it's just a question of
like, how friendly you are, but it's the denying it that makes
it difficult.
And man, that woman needs a voice coach.
I think Matt could do with little work too. But here's the
big news. This is groundbreaking. This is some big
ass news. After five years of running a National Public Radio,
NPR, my former boss, Yarrow Mon, formerly known as lemasters, on
W MMR. But he went when he restarted he was the CEO of NPR.
I met him during that time, I gave him some ideas, which he
never followed up on. Remember, I did that conference in New
York and we chatted for a bit and yeah, you're getting nowhere
now getting nowhere Well, in he also had a open heart surgery a
year and a half ago. And he only he promised to do five years and
he would get everything set up for the next person to come in
and take over and it has happened. And we have a new CEO
of NPR. And I think they made an outstanding choice. If you want
to propagandise the American people. NPR has a new CEO. His
name is John Lansing, a veteran media executive who has
experience in cable TV and public service media. He's
taking over for Yarl mon who is stepping down after fulfilling
his five year term. NPR media correspondent David Folkenflik
is reporting on this. Hi, David. Hey, Ari, tell us about who John
Lansing is.
John Lansing started out as a young man a teenager as a as a
photo journalist, worked in TV newsrooms rose, ultimately to be
the head of have looked over local television stations for
the Scripps company and then headed their basket of cable
channels, which included the the Food Network HGTV and a couple
others. He's more recently since 2015, was appointed by President
Obama to be the head of what is now called the US Agency for
global media. It oversees international broadcasters, like
the Voice of America, radio, liberty, Radio Free Europe and
others that reach hundreds of millions of people each month
broadcasts abroad but not here. Offering people both news, and
also programming,
offering people propaganda, Voice of America and Radio Free
Europe as propaganda against the Russians. It's propaganda all
over the world. And this guy's been running it and now he's
gonna run your National Public Radio Smith Monday. Anybody
think? Well, first of all, I mean, I think it's funny that
you brought this up, and you're totally correct. But it's not
going to change anything.
Oh, really? I mean, you're
already a propaganda arm of the Democrat party. I mean, what's
going to change? They're going to be worse. It's Yes. Any
worse,
they can do so much better. There's not a there's not enough
loathing, there's not enough.
More than enough loathing. There's more propaganda works by
being less overt, like they are currently. So maybe I'll back it
off a little bit. Well, let's
listen to the rest of this soft form of diplomacy.
One has defined his tenure
over the last four years at the US Agency for global media. We
have to remember, they're talking about their new boss, so
they're all nervous. We're the Hubble. What is his tenure over
the last four years that the US Agency for global media?
Well, it's been renowned, you know, a decade ago or so I used
did a lot of reports on how dysfunctional that agency was.
And it was over a series of, of administrations, he's brought
real order to it as its first CEO, instead of stalling a clear
line of command, a clarity of the direction philosophically
great, a greater degree of insulation from sort of
political infighting on the board. After all, the board is
appointed by the government. And, and and there's some sense
of at times partisan efforts to pressure these journalists that
are protected by statute. But he's also been a champion for
the idea of a free press abroad, the importance of it in
companies or excuse me, in countries that want to have
emerging democracies, and it's been a message that he's been
resilient about. And it's been a message that resonated here at
home as well as journalists and the idea of a free press
unfettered has at times come under attack from the highest
office in the land.
Mind you, they've had what 11 CEOs in in the past 10 years,
remember that before Yarrow came in? It was It wasn't the guy
from Sesame Street. Yeah, he lasted nine months. It's not
easy to run that run that place because it just there lib tardes
and I said it Have you said it? Wow, I said it.
So this Lansing guy. And if you look at his background, the way
he described it, he has to be a spook. Of course he's a spook.
And what makes it even more clear that it to me that he's a
spook. He doesn't have a wiki page entry.
Oh my goodness, how can that be possible? In fact, when
you go to the end, I went look, I tried to find first I couldn't
find it. So then I went to the NPR wiki page. And there there
is listed as a key people John Lansing CEO, and it's and it's
lit up like it like is like there's a link. Right, but the
link is to John 10, Ike Lansing, Jr. Some dead 18th century 19th
century or 18th century lawyer, right? Well, that's not him.
Yeah. And there's no there's no other John Lansing that I can
find. So I mean, this is a I would say, I'm just guessing.
I spoke. Yeah, I think.
So. Now, if you want to get your CIA news, you don't have to go
to CBS anymore. Because they're having trouble with their
anchor. And they don't want to deal with that. So you just do
the best your best place to push the CIA messages right out of
NPR. Perfect. I like it. So very creative. That was a good move.
CIA. Yeah,
it's, it's an improvement over that X. MTV guy. I mean, they
kept it to three letter acronyms, but they had to move
up in the alphabet and go from Shams to the C's, there is a on
the house.gov website, there is a bio. It's not really a wiki
bio, but it's a bio. And it's kind of what they said on NPR.
Same thing. It's not much else. But yeah, I mean, he just didn't
he must be. It doesn't even talk about his education. Where do
you go to school?
Now probably went to the Georgetown or American
university or, or Johns Hopkins, one
of those. One of those good ones for sure. For sure.
Rhodes Scholar.
There was a big meeting at Jackson Hole. Big Jackson Hole
meeting where all the central bankers get together as a party
you and I will never be invited to pretty sure. And there was a
lot of surprising talk.
This is a meeting by the way I asked him but we talked about
this on the DHA unplugged show. And I was curious, was this like
the Allen and company meeting? What kind of a meeting is this?
It was actually put on by the Fed?
Yeah, it's it's the central bankers meeting. It's the Feds
party, I think is the way it's, it's its coin. So the Feds
party, they have all the central bankers come in. And the
director or the whatever's exact title is of the Bank of England,
Mark Carney, who I think is actually Canadian. He dropped a
bomb, he had this speech, like the luncheon speech, which is an
important one, because not everyone's going to be there and
they're all chatting and, and all of a sudden, he starts
coming out with well, you know, the financial system, it's
clearly got to change because it's not going so well. And, you
know, maybe we should consider some kind of cryptocurrency and
this show shook up a lot of people in not know, not us. You
know, I only heard about it days after like, Oh, that's
interesting. But when you think about it, to have this guy from
the Bank of England to the Federal Reserve's party and say,
Well, you know, the central banking, I don't know, we got to
change it, we haven't done so well, the transcript is
available, put it in the show notes, it's quite interesting.
Quotes such as there will be a change in our unsustainable
monetary system. So when you're sitting around with a bunch of
central bankers, you can imagine a lot of spit takes going on.
Yeah, people like what the hell is he talking about? And Mark
Carney was questioned by a member of parliament, Steve
Baker in the UK. And I pulled three clips from that I found
that most interesting and I think that it kind of gives you
an insight as to what he meant. And we'll start with the there
will be change in this unsustainable monetary system.
Given the things that you've said here, do you think it's
possible to avoid a long term fundamental structural change in
the monetary regime?
I, I think that there will be a change now measured over
measured over decades, it's very hard to predict exactly that
which is unsustainable tends to go on for longer than you think
and then happen more quickly. Then you expect to paraphrase
Rudy Dorn bush. But I think that these structural flaws in the
end in the system will will ultimately result in a change
and the rise of China and the relative rise of China will also
result in a change to these two forces. And the question I'm
trying to raise is, do we get ahead of that change? Or do we
help manage that change and affect some sort of rebalancing
of the system? And to be absolutely clear on when I say
we I'm talking not about the, the central banks, the public
side, as opposed to the private side coming up with an entirely
different decentralised system. So this is partly where we may
part company at that point on. Yeah, exactly in favour of
choice. But just to be clear,
so he's talking about a decentralised system, which is
not what the Federal Reserve wants, as we've mentioned
before, almost every transaction hits the New York Fed one way or
the other end. That's how we can shut down countries like Iran,
et cetera. This is quite a power powerful tool. And here's this
guy, just saying no, no, it's clearly his stuff was wrong.
It's got a chip. We got to decentralise it. So when you say
decentralised my ears prick up, I'm like, Oh, all right, let's
use Bitcoin. No, well, no such luck. But he has some thoughts.
One of the
issues, which is linked back to the speech is whether or not
they're going to be central bank digital currencies, in order for
there to be instantaneous costless, payments,
domestically, and potentially cross border, which would be to
the benefit of citizens and businesses in particularly
small, medium sized businesses, but all businesses. And the
question is whether if that, if could could that happen? The
answer is yes, it could happen. In fact, Mr. Haldane is helping
to lead our efforts in thinking about how the various ways and
there's more than one way you could do it and various avenues
to do it. But the question is, if you do have that happen, does
it make sense to do it on a coordinated fashion with some of
the core central banks, which brings benefits in and of itself
from a cross border perspective, but happens to be a component of
a more seamless rebalancing of how transactions are priced?
So a lot of big words to say, well, you know, people are
actually doing this very thing you're asking me about with
Bitcoin today? So yeah, I think we could probably come up with
some kind of digital crypto thing that would work. And we
probably have to do that, because I have to compete. And
this got so out of hand that the French finance minister was
asked a question about well, and of course, when you when you
think about this, now, this is being said, like, well, we need
to change the financial system. We need to decentralise, we need
to have some form of digital currency. And of course, that's
what Facebook is trying to do with Libra. They're taking a
basket of currencies, China, US, Europe, etc. And they're using
that as a quote unquote, stable coin, to be able to manipulate
the price of it, obviously, and just using the digital
properties of it for being able to do transactions. And I think
that's why they were they were ready for this to happen. And
the French finance minister, Bruno le maire is having none of
it,
I want to be very clear, I fully share the concerns expressed by
Stephen Minuchin. About deliver, we do not want any private
company to have the possibility to create a sovereign currency,
we have sovereign currencies, the euro, euro, and other
sovereign currencies, which are obliged to fulfil some
commitments and some requirements. So we cannot
accept to have any exchange currencies, being with the same
kind of power and the same kind of hole as the sovereign
currency. So I think that there is a need for regulation, there
is a need for very strong commitments and obligations for
that project. And for the time being, I think that the
necessary requirements are not fulfilled by the project Neva.
And it's not going to happen because there is a plan in
place. And this member of parliament, Steve Baker, who was
asking the questions, really goes, we're gonna go back to
Mark Carney now the the president of the Bank of
England. He starts to insinuate what is going on how this is
going to work? And I think I know what it is. Let's listen to
the question and answer first. So
I think if I were to sort of pick up what to me is the
highlight of what we've heard you explain in the long term, I
think I should emphasise those watching. It's in the long term
that we've got a system which is unsustainable and cannot go on
will go on longer than anyone expects, and then we'll change
faster. than anyone expects, it feels to me like the in such a
moment of change globally will need leadership from global
institutions. Dr. Howard, I'm wondering, what kind of
institution might provide the such global leadership on
monetary reform in such circumstances? Where should we
look for leadership to move this conversation forward for the
whole world?
While I'm in there, there are a number of international
financial institutions who were charged with thinking about just
these questions. And you know, the names, some of them are also
through threat acronym. But I hope within that, and Mark is
very much in the forefront of our efforts as institution to
put ideas on the table for forming all of these things.
London and the UK, still, is home to one of if not the
world's biggest global financial centre. We have over the years,
this institution given huge amounts of thought, to redesign
of the national monetary system. And I hope we can continue very
much in in that vein, so we, our hope would be among others.
Because I'm very confident you will be amongst those, but I'm
also confident that the IMF will be amongst them. And I'm not
promising to press you too far on this. But the journalists
watching will know where I'm coming from and will look to my
Twitter feed, I feel confident and will net. Do you think that
the IMF should be led by a politician? Or do you think it
should be led by somebody who really understands these issues
in detail, and can articulate what should be done in order to
address these kinds of root causes? It's not a question of
Mr. Beck. I think I've made my point for those watching, but
wish you
well. So when I heard that, I was like, oh, wait a minute. So
he's saying really, do you think that who should be running the
International Monetary Fund who should really be in charge
should be a politician or someone who knows what's going
on now we know that Fifi, Lagarde just left the
International Monetary Fund to become the president of the
European Central Bank. I'm not schooled in, in monetary
systems, I'm gonna go out on a limb and then jump in wherever
you think appropriate. The central banking system is in
trouble. And that's why we see negative interest rates, because
there's just the simplified I think the the way you create
more money in our current system, globally, pretty much is
with debt. And we're out of it. With this just no more debt to
be created. At least we're stretching it very, very thin.
So we need to create new money. Enter Fifi Lagarde before
leaving, she promised to paint the European Central Bank her
new place of work green. And what she means by that is the
green bonds that are being structured and or created right
now at the International Monetary Fund, backed by SDRs,
the Special Drawing Rights. And we've been talking about this
for the entire length of the show, I think 10 years at least,
then the SDRs are based on a basket of currencies sound
familiar with the US dollar, the Chinese wampum, we've got the
euro in there and a couple more, and they're going to create this
money, it will be represented as a bond. Now it could be a
digital bond. And there is now already an announcement been
made that under the Euros, European Central Bank, the Euro
systems asset purchase programme, they will be buying
these green bonds. Now, this is where it gets a little fuzzy for
me, but I think that is the next. The next bubble they're
going to inflate is all of this money that's going to be
created. And we have to buy them. Because if we don't, the
Earth will die and we will die with it. And I think that's the
messaging we're going to see is here's this bond, it's a green
bond, they're calling it the green bond. And we need to buy
these because otherwise the earth will just be destroyed
from climate change. And that's how they're going to create
trillions of new of new money.
Well, I don't know if that's anything close to what's
happening. But the green bond idea is interesting to me
because they they have all these obligations to pay all these
other countries. I mean, we've supposedly the Paris Accords and
all these climate deals that Trump refuses to sign on to are
largely just scams to get, get our money shipped to a bunch of
little islands and people that need that one. free money. And
we've already been pretty good given that it's possible at
this, that this debt, they're not creating new money to create
a new debt which creates
new money. That's that's the same. If you want a different
side of the same coin,
it increases the money supply. Yes, that's what it does. It
says there's no new money increases the money supply. Yes.
Correct. So
there's a bunch of money flying around, that you can use in the
new monetary people or the whole thing is becoming nuts. It needs
to reset. But I don't like it. I don't like going over there and
free agree.
It's a great well, the green bonds are from the IMF. And
she's going over there saying she's gonna buy them from where
she used to work at the IMF. I mean, hello.
Oh, no, that could Yeah, that's a good little bogus. They're
happening.
I mean, it's a loan for what I mean, a bond is a loan is like
you, you take you're getting money from Nick, instead of from
a bank, you're getting it from the public, or the government's,
right. And so I'm apple, and I've decided to float some bonds
to get some more working income because I don't know why had
dappled doesn't need it, but as to say they do it. So they get
some bonds out there. And people buy up the buzzers when they get
a bunch of money, but they of course have to pay that back
over time with interest. And if it's if it's if it goes below
beneath the interest rate, then they actually the other works
the other way, the value goes up. Well, if it goes below the
interest rate goes below zero, then the money is actually
extracted in a reverse force. The banks get more and more
money, right? Because they're holding the bonds and so the
bonds are they sold the bonds they sold the bonds
and my head's exploding. Nicholas
talking about his right now the system is in order, like
collapse mode. Yes,
yes. That's what it sounds like.
And it could collapse and if it does, it'll be I don't know what
to tell you. I don't know what's gonna happen. This is a mystery.
It'll be a pot a mystery here. Well, these are no small
statements that these guys are making at Lowe's are freaked
out they don't know what to do. They already screwed up. I
think that's the that's the message that needs to be
communicated. They're freaked out because they screwed up and
they don't know what to do that and it seems like everyone's
trying.
Correcting it's actually going the wrong way. Which is negative
interest rate thing that's not the way that anybody wants.
Nobody wants to see that.
It's only getting better. Negative interest rates are just
doing better and better every day.
Well they haven't gotten to us yet. So we're hanging in there
the United States is above it. That's why we attract so much
money which keeps everything propped up.
Did we have a clip on the last show that someone said yeah
could come here pretty soon
yeah, they've been saying that for a while but it hasn't yet
right but it actually happened in your in is happening in
European country so it can't happen. Anyway, I remain a
Bitcoin maximalist I think that's still the safest way to
go for my $10 a week.
I'm gonna show my mood by domain to no agenda. Imagine all the
people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun
I know, I just don't sell everything and Biden just all
in. We have a bit a couple of maybe two by no one for sure. We
have a Bitcoin millionaire up in the Seattle area. Oh, he's one
of our producers and he just retired he's about I think he
seems to be about his 30s and he got in early and stayed in and
got filthy rich.
And Is he is he on the on the list for today?
He's not sure of a meet up and that's about it.
Yeah, no donations for you. But hey, hi. I'm at the meetup.
Paul Albers starts us off with $123.45 says the show is
standing. Mr. pothole comes in with a 123 21 Christopher pie
food in Buckeye, Arizona. One One anonymous $100 from New

interesting. We have 9999 Anonymous and 100 Anonymous. One

So we had seven people that took up the Debellis palindromes
don't work anymore.
Now, I think I think
they used to work.
You know, it's better when when the producers come up with their
own number sequences that seems to catch on when we do
palindrome. Yeah, the first couple of times people liked it
as a number,
but they still did they hate us.
Despise and loathe despise.

friend Simon pass as a douchebag. We did that just a
minute ago but can never hurt that one. Please add my dear
father Buster brown to the birthday list as he turned 71 on
the 12th of September today, congratulations bus. I've been
hitting him in the mouth to no avail despite the fact that he
appears to independently have similar worldviews I always get
great value from my donations, as John mispronounces my name,
and has done so for the past five times. Thank you. loud in
the brown. Oh, that's nice. That's a nice note. So now what
are we what we'll do heat needs. We did the douche bagging and

well, today is the 12th of September 2019. We do have a
list of birthdays first a belated birthday to Joel Tucker
who celebrated on the ninth Stanley Jones also belated

everybody here the best podcast in the universe
so I have a list of course of some meetups for you but first a
recap of the Orlando meetup. It was not great. Says Dane meow
Addison that am I wanted to provide a recap of the Orlando
meetup from tonight. Sadly, the organiser was a no show and
texts or calls from myself and other attendees went unanswered.
On top of that the venue was locked. So the five of us plus
one extra friend had to make our own plans. They went to a
brewery down the street, ate some food and had some drinks
for a few hours and it was a generally nice time. My
boyfriend and I printed your heads for sticks, but we forgot
them. Lots of fails for this meetup but we will definitely be
trying again some good news is that we learned the that's true
ladies live in Central Florida area and we're hoping they host
a seminar so some of us can stop by all in all it was an
enjoyable low key night and we will make it Another attempt at
an area meet up at de mi Alderson and I'm sorry to hear
that this we try to avoid these things, but you know it's
completely volunteer. And it typically does work out very
well. You can go to no agenda meetups.com You can find out
what's near you. And if there isn't one, you can create one
yourself, but if you're going to do it, you should probably show
up and for the 14th coming up this week. We have Pittsburgh,
PA and the El Paso Las Cruces meet up on the 19th Toronto, the
20th Southeast Louisiana Nelson, British Columbia, South East
London and Wilsonville, Oregon foreign one day on May 21,
eastern North Carolina, Minneapolis and Boulder Creek.
If you're in Arlington, Virginia, we gave you a shout
out earlier September 22 Is your date to hang out the 26th Las
Vegas and Luxembourg. There's only 30,000 People love live in
Luxembourg. I can't wait to find out how many will be at the
meetup 27th of September San Antonio in Texas to 28th
Victoria BC, and also in Copenhagen and Harvard De
Grasse, Maryland. That's where you will be able to hang out
with people get some in person close up connection with people
who don't get triggered and people you probably would never
know. We're listeners of the no agenda show. Moreover, they're
all producers. So we'll hopefully have more reports and
more meetups on the next show and right now we've got to don't
want to be a douche Vasser otaku, the Baron of Northeast
Texas in the Red River Valley has upped his status once again
with another $1,000 in total donations to become the Earl of
Northeast Texas and the Red River Valley we congratulate him
on his new title. And you can always go to itm.im/peerage to
find out exactly where everyone standing is and in the event of
calamity, who was in charge of what region of the world that's
what are Knights and Dames and and titles above that, do our
bearings for sure they have protectorates and they are the
people to talk to when the shit hits the fan. And thank you
again for everything and supporting the no agenda show.
No knights are no dame's today, just one title change.
That's odd. Yeah. Well, it happens. All right.
So where were we?
Um, well,
I've go Uh, yes, that's something I'm following up on
something we talked about and something I couldn't find. So I
did want to circle back to that. We'll start off with another
obsession of the M five M mainstream certainly in the
United States. And just for to mix it up by figured out bring
in Jimmy Kimmel to tell us the day's news.
Instead of meeting with the Taliban yesterday, Trump spent
the day lashing out at John Legend and Chrissy Tegan for
real leaves. Apparently he's watching a town hall on NBC last
night, probably waiting to hear his name mentioned he was upset
that John Legend didn't give him a shout out for the bipartisan
criminal justice reform bill that he signed. So he got out
his thumbs and he wrote guys like boring musician John
Legend, and his filthy mouth wife who wasn't even there, by
the way, are talking about how great it is, but I didn't see
them around when we needed help getting it past his filthy
mouth. What what is it? We can't have all these filthy mouth
women around with the Taliban is coming over guys. Trump hates
women who talk dirty unless they're spanking him with a
Forbes magazine. So Christy Teegan responded to this. She
wrote lol What a Aspen. Trending for that she got more than
500,000 likes. She's almost 10 times as many likes as he got
for his tweet about her which I think means she's our new
president, right.
And what I found interesting, they bleeped the pussy part so
what she was tweeting over and over again it was a hashtag is
pussy ass bitch president? Why would they bleep the pussy and
leave the ass bitch in
that makes no sense kind of weird, isn't it?
Yeah, cuz they say grabbing by the pussy. Yeah, that's I don't
know why the boss instantly Oh, grabbed by the Instagram by the
pusher, but now they bleep it.
Yeah. So pussy ass bitch became a trending topic and it was just
like it really this is all that we can obsess over. And that
gave me reason to go back and find the fine John Legend clip
from NPR where he claims that really the only people who are
creative
are Democrats. Well, we've always
been liberal musicians, actors, it's almost by disposition. We
deal with the gay and lesbian community all the time. So we're
going to feel like, they should have the right to get married,
just like we do. We deal with people of all colours in all
races, and we travelled to different countries all the time
to perform. So we're going to have a more global view and a
more inclusive view. It's almost by nature, and by and by a
circumstance of the things that we do. So if America doesn't
want to consume the art, people who are liberal minded, there's
not going to be a lot of art for them to consume. As simple as
that. Because the best artists, most of them are liberal. Sorry.
There are some country artists, I know they're conservative. I
have a lot of country artists that have friends. And believe
me, some of them are liberal, but they don't make a big deal
out of it, because they know it will alienate their base. I'm
telling you, most creative people are liberal.
Just so you know.
And they say things like pussy as bitch. It's great. It's
pretty liberal. It's very creative. Very creative. Very,
very liberal.
very creative, very liberal. Yes, John Legend. Now, this next
clip, was one of the few times they tried to create some good
news, the mainstream outlets, it's put some good news out
there. I don't think you saw this video. Because as you'll
hear in this clip, they say it went viral, but their numbers
are odd. This was the two the two kids two little boys black
boy and a white boy and they see each other on the sidewalk and
they run towards each other and they hug each other. Did you see
this video out there in the wild by any chance? You probably
didn't Did you?
I think I did. Right? So
Oh, so cute. So cute. But the reason I play this clip is a
because they're they're trying to make it go viral and be I
just couldn't resist listening to this guy with with y'all.
26 month old Maxwell and 27 month old Finnegan pure joy at
the sight of one another running to give each other hug much
bigger than their size. The Innocence of it all is exactly
why it's going viral.
They just took off towards each other and I just got my phone
out as quickly as possible and just tried to record it and they
are just too cute together.
Are you ready for this? Another minute is this guy I'm talking
about
is an understatement. Michael Cisneros. Maxwell's dad shot the
video, he says he's not normally want to post a lot of private
things on Facebook, but explains why he decided to in this case,
with all the racism and hate going on. I just think it's a
really beautiful video, the reason that it's getting
attention because it is with a little black boy and a little
white boy and one's mind, you know, or just changed their view
on things and you know, then it's totally worth it.
At last check. It's gotten over 300 shares and 6500 views that's
viral. The comments are mostly positive. But there are some
naysayers
definitely not staged. And it was just a lucky moment. And I
got it on camera. And now with all the attention that it's
getting, it's just going to be a great story to tell him when
he's older.
The pint size best friends have known each other for over a year
now. It's a special relationship and their parents are good
friends as well.
There's not anyone else that comes close to Finnegan status
and Maxwell's eyes. Great to spread the love and to show
people that kind of love and beauty in the world.
Yes, thank you very much. I'm risk 650 people so the love and
beauty in the world.
Now, I didn't even think about because I did see this. I just I
just Yeah.
I can I can visualise you.
Yeah, yeah. And but now that he mentioned it. Now I'm convinced
it's staged to the court. If he didn't say it, it's like to tell
right? Yeah, I didn't stage it you all room wasn't staged. But
I'm thinking about it. Totally. Two kids into doing this and you
get the camera ready because for one thing, you can't if the kids
are running and they gotta go hug and they just you can't get
your camera out in time and you're not gonna make this it's
just a it's not gonna happen. It's just bull crap. So he
stages so he's okay, he's on that kind of three run to each
other and give him the biggest hug you can. And they probably
did. Okay, let's do safety. I mean, it probably did it.
Hey, kids, I was Greg. Let's do what we're for safe day. Safety.
How much I hated that. That was great. Great segment and
perfect. Let's do one more for safety. You liked it or you
didn't like it? What's the safety bowl crap is so
they staged it was obviously staged. Because these kids see
each other all the time. Why? What's all it was? What's the
deal? You know that now they're hugging each other. So what
Yeah, yeah, it was staged. Great. Thanks, pal.
Some happy looting. They
polluting the mind viral video arena. It was staged crap. Of
course nobody does that.
Never. Why did we do that?
There was a thing. I think it was in Buzzfeed or one of these,
but they should have topped five viral videos that were staged.
Oh, yes. So I went through them. And there was a couple in there
that I remember seeing and I had no idea they were staged. Do you
remember which one? Yeah, I'll remember that one. You probably
saw it. It's some I think it's a black girl. But it's some girls.
Just slightly overweight, slightly chubby and easy to add
to the thing. And she's going to she's dancing on the camera, and
she's going to do us you're going to stand on her hands or
something against the door. And then somebody opens the door and
she falls backwards into a table of candles. Yes. Yes. That was.
That's the place on fire.
That was stage. Totally staged. A good one. Yeah,
that's right. That was impressed that you can you can, you can
fool me with a state and there's the number all of them were
like, Oh, I can see being fooled. I mean, a lot of them
are the ones that we've all seen. And we know where stage
like the eagle coming down and grabbing the baby on the golf
course.
I think that was not that was edited. That wasn't staged. That
was
fake. It was a fake. Fake. Fake. But yeah,
a couple of the OTG items. T eg off the grid baby. No T G. Yes.
While you probably saw that, well, I saw it, then what a
waste of time the apple special events where you know, it's a
big camera. Thanks. That's great. But they're also they
announced iOS 13. And we also have Android 10 coming up. And
face bag is very worried about this. So they have Paul
McDonald, the engineering director has posted a made a
blog post just starts off like this, Facebook is better with
location. It powers features like check ins and makes
planning events easier. It helps improve ads and keeps you and
the Facebook community safe.
How's it keep you safe? It keeps you
safe just shut up and don't question the bag Ma. Features
like find Wi Fi and nearby friends use precise location
even when you're not using the app to make sure that alerts and
tools are accurate and personalised for you. Your
Android or iOS location settings allow you to control when you
share your device's precise location with apps like
Facebook. That's why we're letting you know that Android
and iOS have released new versions of their operating
systems, which include updates to how you can view and manage
your location. The newest version of Android gives people
more visibility into and control over when apps can access the
device's precise location. The new version of iOS called iOS
13, will send people reminders about which apps can access
their precise location information when they're not
using the app, and how many times each app has accessed it.
So I'll skip forward a little bit. If you decide to update,
you'll have the option to allow individual apps to access your
precise location either while you're using the app or when
you're not, we understand this may be confusing. If you're
already using Facebook's background location setting,
this update may cause a few instances where Android and
Facebook location settings will be out of sync. So long story
short, they're doing everything they can to tell you that you
should not be worried when you see your phone telling you that
Facebook is tracking your precise location. And and this
comes back to what we've always said is location is everything.
Your the location of where you are tells you so much about a
person? Where are you I'm at the doctor's office being we know
that where I'm at the bank being where are you I'm in an office,
probably your office being without telling anybody without
posting without even speaking, you are telling these companies
exactly what you're doing and what your life is about. And you
need to delete these apps from your phone because now they can
easily access it or they can continue to easily access your
location although not entirely precise, even when you're not
using the app. Delete this crap off of your phones. Dan for the
Credit Karma users amongst us and other credit score based
apps. This we've looked at the data points are now adding into
your credit score which was turning slowly into a social
credit score in addition to your pay and this is now being
proposed as law that all All these companies will need to
report this and act upon it. Not just your your utilities ie Do
you pay your your utility bills on time, which is now being
added to your social credit score, but also which magazine
subscriptions you have. And Goldman Sachs ally financial
discovery financial services are all now incorporating the
information on magazine subscriptions, which I believe
the post office is probably helping them with since whenever
you move and I've moved a couple times, four times in Austin or
five times in Austin alone, they always try to sell you magazine
subscriptions. So I'm pretty sure that the post office the US
Postal Service is somehow involved in getting this
information.
And I don't I don't think they know I really disagree with that
is too much work. The data, there's databases out there that
you can purchase that will get you all this information easy
enough. So already there now post office not going to give
you anything. Okay?
So it's out there, but then they're now incorporating it. So
if you subscribe to garden,
then it'd be in violation of my privacy for people I know all my
new magazine subscriptions. This is like what web pages have I'm
browsing
kits, it's very similar and so if you subscribe to gardens and
guns, which is a real magazine
it's a good magazine
it's an Austin based magazine, no less gardens and guns. Or you
know, who knows what you subscribe to? Could be a whole
bunch of things that is that will now be known to the credit
scoring social scoring companies and well I guess if you what
difference
does it make to them? What magazines I subscribe to? Well
with There's seriously wellness or trying it let's gardens and
guns is like for Bolton or I don't know what would they all
tell us an ammo and all the rest of motorcycle week? I mean, what
difference does it make to them? Let me how does that affect my
credit score?
Let me tell you the example they use in this article. There was a
because you You caught me a little off guard. I can
paraphrase. A woman had a bad credit score for some reason and
she could not get credit to I don't want to buy a house or
something. And they they went in they looked closer. Oh, here it
is. Christina Segura 24 had a low credit score from unpaid
medical debts when she applied for financing. From from fin
tech startup Mert maritimes, which is a credit score based
company providing with loans the company which funds higher
education skills based training used her high school transcript
to approve her loans totaling 9000 to attend pipe welding
school. maritimes considers factors such as improvements in
grades, scientists, students challenged themselves, et
cetera. So they just want to have more social information
about you to make their determination of how credit
worthy you are. And I can see where the you know, if you
subscribe to Harvard Business Review, that will be good.
Gardening guns? Probably not.
This is illegal. Is it? Right should be
between face bag tracking, tracking your location when you
don't even use it? Yes, encouraging
stalking, by the way if you're a woman, or like our little our 15
year old that just sent that note in who wants to go OTG if I
was a woman, I would have all that stuff turned off because I
don't want to be tracked. Because people can hack through
these systems. And you get some creep. Yeah. Who's just
following you around? He's a stalker. Well, if they psych I
always thought this was inviting stalkers. Yeah. I'm sure. Nobody
ever mentions that this is like inviting stalkers. Because it's
technology,
man.
It's cool. It's cool.
All right. Well, I'm sufficiently grossed out.
Sorry.
Don't make it up. So let's catch up on some stuff. Okay. There
was an interesting little bullet First, there's a guy from the
great an expert on the Great Barrier Reef came on. Sorry,
they came on to discuss some of the bull crap he got fired,
fired from he was deputy he's like the number one expert on
the Great Barrier Reef, and he got fired from some university
for just telling him that all we're hearing is bull crap. But
anyway, here's some of it.
Well, thank you very much knotless all heard that the
Great Barrier Reef is on its last legs. And it's been
smothered by sediment polluted by fertiliser and pesticides,
and it's killed by dredging and of course climate change. So who
who here, put your hands up believes that story's true as a
matter of interest? Right? Well, that's interesting. So I mean,
out there, almost everybody believes it true. There's
literally hundreds of millions of people around the world who
think that so you guys now have got a little bit of a tricky
question, because you've been told it's dead and you believe
it's dead. So how are you going to tell this? Am I just am I a
whistleblower? Or and the world has been conned? Or am I a
complete lunatic? And of course, the way you decide is the you
listen to my arguments that this is the libertarian way. But
unfortunately, that's not the way of a modern university, as
we will see in a minute. So I'll give you before we go into my
little tricky situation with the university, I'll give you some,
some facts about the universe, about the reef. Climate change
is supposed to be killing all the corals. But did you know
that most of the corals that live on the Great Barrier Reef
also live in Indonesia and Thailand, where the water is one
or two degrees hotter, and they actually grow 50% Faster,
they're, in fact, probably more. Coral bleaching, which you've
heard such a lot about, is not a new phenomenon. It's been going
on for 100 million years or so. It's like a bushfire. It looks
terrible, but the corals rapidly recover from it.
He goes on and on with one thing after another everything you've
heard about the corals is bogus. And this guy's the coral expert.
Do you gotta get the whole I gotta get his whole speech
because then he goes after his university had fired him because
he kept he kept he kept contradicting people that were
just dropping these lies and if apparently, if it is when things
do warm up, the corals grow 50% faster. Oh, man. I haven't
wondering you know, I remember that Greta, turn Berg and he
fuming gambling gambling him coming. Yeah, see what happens
with that girl when she when she flips and goes on and finds out
that she's been there most of his bull crap. Oh, we burned her
at the stake. No, no, she's she'll be a dynamo. Seems like
that kind of person would be very easily irked. I took that
two week trip on that boat to put as vote.
Well, you haven't given me for today as an ISO.
I thought I had one in here.
I don't see any ISOs and we do need something. Well, you have
the
China, China asshole.
Okay. When in doubt, you can always roll that one out. Yeah,
I got an old democracy. Now clip I want to play. This is again,
something we haven't been talking about much. It's kind of
got out of the news cycle. It kind of it will come back. But
it's the water scam, which we used to talk about quite a bit.
Now. It's kind of fallen by the wayside, but it's being maybe
brought back by Democracy Now.
17 countries representing around one quarter of the world's
population are at risk of running out of water. This
according to new data published Tuesday by the World Resources
Institute. The countries which include India, Iran and Qatar
are facing extremely high water stress meaning they're using
almost all of their water reserves. Several US cities and
states such as Los Angeles and New Mexico are also considered
to be under extremely high water stress, the number of afflicted
regions will continue to climb due to global heating. The World
Resources Institute says water stress is the biggest crisis no
one is talking about its consequences are in plain sight
in the form of food insecurity, conflict and migration and
financial instability.
She said
I don't know if this clip was just old.
No, it's not that old. She said global heating. Yeah, she said
global heating. I noticed that too. It's kind of odd. Yeah,
it's not the climate crisis, the climate emergency or global
warming. It's global heating. I
think that's more like an anglicised I think the Brits use
that sometimes globally global heating
and the then why I don't know what the point of that was, cuz
she's usually right on board with the climate emergency.
Yeah, yeah. climate crisis. Yes. And she also is either one of
those water stress another good one.
So in the newsletter, I put this little item about I guess Dan,
rather came out with a tweet and said, you know, Trump talked
about fighting Nazis, you know, there.
Oh, he He went back to the fine people on both sides. Yeah. And
then
but he took it further. He said that he called Nazis fine
people. That's what he said in his dad rather, that
bastion of news reporting.
Yeah, damn, rather than the guy who, you know got fired for this
report for a really bad story on George Bush, which people live
Joseph defended him because they thought it was a real story. But
even though it was Bogota, this is the letter. This was written
supposedly during the 40s or during George Bush's time, not
in the 40s. But I guess during the Korean War, some period of
time was so long ago that you that it was obvious it was not
there was a fake because they had the T H was in small up
Laureus at 11th with a tuition and it's done like Microsoft
Word does it shrinks it and puts it up there that you couldn't do
that back in the day. So rather any game is piston II case kept
working. But I have to say, you know these guys these, but these
guys, these writers and reporters that are just locked
in, and they refuse to listen to reason, and of course Scott
Adams jumps in and does his because he's a big
Oh, let me let me guess. And then Dan Rather went Oh, you're
right, Scott. I'll stop doing that.
Yeah, well, that obviously didn't happen. But I do reminded
me of this clip that I've been sitting on, which is where we're
Baito O'Rourke is confronted by someone from daily the colour or
some, I don't know, some right leaning operation about his
hoax, because beta O'Rourke is the biggest is probably the
biggest promoter of it, of Trump saying and to back people up.
Trump never said that. There were fine people on both sides.
Except after he made a disclaimer saying I'm not
talking about the Nazis and the white nationalists, very clearly
did that. Yeah. And so that's what you know. So we have this
two sides that well, he he said that but he still said fine
people. So here's the but here's the way the Democrats are and I
hate to pick on Democrats, but this is beta O'Rourke, not
listening to the guy and just going on with his pitch I really
dislike now here. I despise beta O'Rourke,
the President Trump after Charlottesville said that he
condemned the white supremacist and the Neo Nazis totally. Are
you aware that you're misquoting him or partially quoting him not
quoting the full extent of his remarks in Charlottesville? Are
you concerned that that might inflame tensions rather than
heal divisions? No, I
believe in in the truth and in being honest about what the
president's doing. And it's not just that he referred to
Klansmen as very fine people. It is that he attempted to ban all
people of one religion from this country are constantly warned of
an invasion of killers and rapists and animals from Central
America and Mexico, though we know that they commit crimes at
a far lower rates than those who are born in this country. This
is a very coordinated attack on minorities in this country on
the most vulnerable and the defenceless for political gain
for the president. And he knows full well that it not only
offends our sensibilities as a country, it is leading to
violence and the taking of lies as we saw, you know, past but he
said
he wasn't referring to the Neo Nazis. It was just a quick just
a clarification. He said he wasn't referring to the Klansmen
is very fine people that he was referring to nonviolent
protesters left and right.
He has openly courted the support of white supremacist.
I got my hair cut yesterday and the lady who cuts my hair grew
up in El Paso and you know, went to the same school as Bobby is
Bobby, by the way. Not bad is Bobby O'Rourke. Robert, Francis,
Bobby, and even people in El Paso are like, Yeah, we like
what Liz Warren better. So if you can't make it in your
hometown, something's wrong.
To get his dick.
Correct. Well, I have one last thing to share. Joe sent this
in. I think it's worth noting since we haven't really gotten
an I trust our boots on the ground reports from our
producers. Adam, my wife and I had the pleasure of attending an
event with Ruth Bader Ginsburg over the weekend. She lives
because of a recent treatment, but I was pleasantly surprised
to see and hear hear her in relatively good health. She had
a man and a woman escort her by the arms that she processed, one
of whom was certainly for security reasons as well as
physical aid. Once she was up on little stage and seated she was
very lively. She stood several times throughout the ceremony to
deliver her pieces spoke with a strong with as strong of a voice
as any diminutive, 86 year old lady could be expected to do the
impressive part. The impressive part was the vigour with which
she stood pop right up every time it was her turn. If it
comes up feel free to share the antidote. Don't identify me or
the wedding karaoke just now is very curious about her health
she appears to be doing well all things considered Love and Light

John Bolton lead for Trump files are trying to start some hail,

than a year to do it. But Tom kept dragging on his account.
