Adam Curry: Well looks like a woman, Adam curry Jhansi Devora
Sunday February 19 2023. This is your award winning combination
media assassination episode 1531. This is no agenda, using
my blowhole to broadcast live from the heart of the country
here in FEMA Region number six in the morning, everybody. I'm
Adam curry here
John C Dvorak: from Northern Silicon Valley where we're
hoping you're going to shoot down some are hobbyist balloons,
bastards of Jhansi Dvorak
Unknown: and buzzkill
Adam Curry: it wasn't just hobbyists. It was a ham radio
hobbyist balloon.
John C Dvorak: Well, that was one of them. Yeah, yes.
Adam Curry: Just one. You know how I have always joked about
plastic surgeons who say just a few days of bruising, ma'am. You
know that. Turns out oral surgeons are very similar, but
they're all surgeons. Just a sore for a day or two jaunt my
mouth is is so taut from the swelling is like I'm talking to
a
John C Dvorak: blowhole. Paul used to blowhole Joker. Well,
you
Adam Curry: didn't say anything. So I wanted to make sure you you
heard it.
John C Dvorak: i You sound huge sound 10 by 10 Yeah, five
Adam Curry: by five. I know. I know. But it hurts by six.
Square when it hurts when I laugh so let's make it oh yeah,
let's make it a just kind of a regular old show. Do you mind
just not too funny.
John C Dvorak: Very little shows are pretty humorous. I do have
my book here out a book called Book jokes, puns and riddles.
No, I David Alan Clark. Hola. Let's not do that. No, this is a
book that I'm I'm gonna tell you some interesting. 9668. So this
is hippie humor. And I'm going to tell you I could read
anything from this book and I guarantee you won't laugh.
Adam Curry: Oh, that would make sense. Hippie humor is generally
just not funny.
John C Dvorak: Question. Okay, when is spanking like a hat?
Adam Curry: I don't know when his spanking like a hat. John.
John C Dvorak: When it is felt?
Adam Curry: Oh, man is this did Marty write this book? Oh, I
hurt myself.
John C Dvorak: Your day? I didn't do it. All right. All
right. Well, maybe you're wise and hammer one liners should be
dead put a halt. That's what it
Adam Curry: is. The Munich Security Conference is on. I
have a clip diver clip too. But since I called it, I'll do the
overview and then we'll see what you have. I got a couple of
things here. This is the the annual conference everyone gets
together in Deutschland. Last year, of course, the Lensky was
there in his civilian suit, to recommend that everyone get
ready for the war. And now we're one year further. And here's a
couple of years an overview of what the leaders had to say
including hair Zielinski himself.
Unknown: We Solinsky set the tone comparing Ukraine's fight
against Russia to David and Goliath.
He will definitely fall already. This year. We can make it all of
us together just as David did. We can make sure that there is
no alternative to our victory.
Ukraine's President urged Western leaders to act quickly
we need
to hurry up we need the speed speed of our agreements speed of
our delivery to strengthen our slink speed of decisions to
limit Russian potential was the Linsky pushed for
speed. German Chancellor Olaf Schultz argued for caution. By
last, we will continue to maintain the balance between
providing the best possible support to Ukraine and avoiding
an unwanted escalation.
But shorts also challenged Western countries to deliver on
promised weapons.
This means that everyone who can supply these battle tanks should
actually do so now. Emmanuel Macron from Ukraine remains
firm. No, absolutely
not, we must absolutely intensify our support for the
resistance of the Ukrainian people and army for leading the
counter offensive, which alone will enable credible
negotiations under the conditions chosen by Ukraine.
Authorities, its people.
Adam Curry: So that's the overview sounds pretty boring.
Although Zielinski is almost.
John C Dvorak: He's almost my overviews a little better than
that.
Adam Curry: Okay. I'm glad I was just going to finish by
John C Dvorak: this is an actual overview. That doesn't really
bring in any details like were you just that's more detail this
is Munich Security Conference clip.
Unknown: The Munich Security Conference kicks off today in
Bavaria, Germany. The meeting is an annual gathering of experts
Senior Policy missions and heads of state for talks on global
security policy. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and
French President Emmanuel McCrone have arrived at the
venue to meet with other European leaders. Their speeches
will follow opening remarks by Ukrainian president Volodymyr
Zelensky. Also among the guests, our UK Prime Minister Rishi
Sunak, European Commission had Ursula von der Leyen and NATO
Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg representing the US
is Vice President Kamala Harris.
Adam Curry: Rah rah Oh, I see why you were so jacked about
playing your clip, because now
John C Dvorak: why do they What is she doing there? She
Adam Curry: was there last year. If you recall, she is the
represent she is there to say, with the passage of time. And
Solinsky is almost quoting song lyrics, we can make it we can
make it looks like we made it I'm telling you this is almost
over. But not until we shake down the people of the United
States, the UK, the EU, and back home, we had the representatives
telling us how they're going to take it from us
Unknown: and then deliver much needed humanitarian assistance
as well as food, water, medicine, shelter, and other aid
to Ukrainians, displaced by Russians war, and provide aid
for those seeking refuge and other countries from Ukraine is
also going to help schools and hospitals open. It's going to
allow pensions and social support to be paid to the
Ukrainian people. So they have something something in their
pocket, also going to provide critical resources to address
food shortages around the globe.
Adam Curry: No, they need their pensions. We don't need our
pensions giving them cash. Yes, screw you, America with your
pensions. We're giving them cash. We're giving them food
when you're hungry. You're hungry, you should go to
Ukraine.
John C Dvorak: So that the homeless situation around here
that I know they have the best of homeless in DC.
Adam Curry: Oh, a lot of homeless in DC. It's been bad
for a long time once you crossed the border of Foggy Bottom.
Yeah, so here's Mitch McConnell, leader of the Republicans are
listening to the Ukrainian saying they don't have enough
and by the way on Fox News with Dana Perino are listening to the
Unknown: Ukrainian saying they don't have enough ammo. And even
our defense department is saying we might have to figure out a
way to get more funding so that we have an ammo for ourselves
and our allies like grant
Adam Curry: funding. This is such a scam. We are being stolen
from right before our very eyes. Oh, we don't have enough
bullets. Not enough ammo. We need more funding. Wait, but we
have, we haven't figured out the debt limit yet. Oh, it's gonna
be so fun.
Unknown: What is Biden's responsibility and trying to
make sure that people in America whose support for Ukraine is
softening? We'll want to continue to try to help them.
Well, I'm going to try to help explain to the American people
that just feeding the Russians and Ukraine is the single most
important event going on in the world right now.
Adam Curry: I don't care what you think is the single most
important thing in the entire world. Even if you're hungry,
even if you're safe. If you have no jingle jangle in your pocket,
it's all about Ukraine. That's the most important thing.
Unknown: It will save us an enormous amount of money down
the road if Ukrainians can succeed. They're not asking for
any of our personnel.
Adam Curry: It's an investment people this it'll save us money
down the road. If the Ukrainians can succeed. It's an it's really
you should see it as an investment in your children in
the bank interest in your children's future. It
Unknown: will save us an enormous amount of money down
the road if Ukrainians can succeed. They're not asking for
any of our personnel are asking us for financial help. Europeans
are stepping up.
Adam Curry: By the way, financial help. Dana Perino just
opened by saying, Man, we need money for the military
industrial complex, we were out of ammo, they're out of ammo.
And then he says, well, we need money for them. No, no, this
we're we're being robbed. We're being robbed by the military
industrial complex, and they're just gonna keep going until
someone stops it we're not
Unknown: asking for any of our personnel are asking us for
financial help
Adam Curry: us keep saying yeah, they are. What are they asking
for?
John C Dvorak: You're asking for our personnel. They'd love to
have our personnel over there. They have our
Adam Curry: personnel are some of this money is going to the
mercenaries that's our personnel,
John C Dvorak: not only just mercenaries, according to that
clip that I played last show US Army. Yeah, that guy wasn't a
mercenary he was talking about
Adam Curry: No, he was an advisor. Oh, yes. Advisor with a
gun and advisor cannot be neutral. Here's our ghost. Let
me show him advise you how to do this. You point over there. Now
I'm going to pull the trigger. This is just advice. Okay.
Unknown: Culture makes choices in times like the
sorry, down the road if Ukrainians can succeed. They're
not asking for any of our personnel or asking us for
financial help. The Europeans are stepping up to They've
gotten an awful lot that seems not to be recognized, for
example, handling like enormous numbers of refugees.
Adam Curry: Man, I keep doing it. They were not recognizing
how good the Europeans are. The Europeans are really actually
better than us. Because we're just not recognizing how much
they've done an
Unknown: awful lot that seems not to be recognized, for
example, handling enormous numbers of refugees. In terms of
the cost of a Dinah, it's about point oh, 2% of our gross
domestic product. Oh, we'll
Adam Curry: give that to Americans. Because it's just a
little bit. So was $130 billion is just Oh, point. Oh, 2% of our
why don't we give another 0.0 point 2% of the GDP to
Americans. This, I cannot believe that anyone sitting at
home going? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. We really got to help out
Ukraine. I just does. It seems like this must be falling on
deaf ears.
Unknown: We are also monitoring very carefully that money that's
being spent. There should be a bipartisan why
John C Dvorak: I said bullcrap you don't even they can't even
audit the Pentagon, let alone figure out where that money's
going to descend it if you remember when this war first
started, and they started shipping money over there. They
lost track of it immediately was
Adam Curry: 400 million 400 million. I don't know, even
someone pointed out to me the clip you played on the last show
about running out of ammunition. They actually said the
ammunition is lost. They didn't say it's it's like missing. It's
missing in this. It is so obvious that
Unknown: we are also monitoring very carefully that money was
being spent. It should be a bipartisan support for this my
biggest criticism of the President as he seems not to
have done enough soon enough, more, more rapidly, we might
have been able to help the Ukrainians have even more
success than they've already had. But it seems like these
weapons systems tend to get there. A little too late. on
every occasion. I'm sorry.
Adam Curry: Dana Perino representative news model for
the military industrial complex. Exactly,
Unknown: because they're a little too late. on every
occasion, exactly. Public opinion, slotting but I want to
reassure the American people this is this is enormously
important. We need to stay together on a bipartisan basis
in our country, and defend these people who are bravely fighting
for freedom and for democracy and you're crying.
Adam Curry: Alright, so this is this is the new narrative. By
the way. I didn't hear Dana Perino say anything in this
report, even when she when she asked the question about support
sliding. So support is sliding. He's aware of it. They're aware,
but he just brought that in without any prompting. The same
is happening in Europe. And Queen Ursula gave an interview.
She had a very stressful interview. It was kind of a
stand up thing at the Munich Security Conference. I think
someone stopped her on the buzzer. strahd. That's a
international speak for a balcony. And then she got a
whole bunch of mics jammed in her face and she couldn't get
away from it. And if you look closer at her, she is her. Her
lizard reptile mouth is starting to show. She has all the little
creases lines all around her mouth know when she could seem
easily saw with some injectables just a few days of bruising. But
now it just looks really makes her look like a reptile. So a
couple of questions here. And the first one is of course the
people of the EU who have millions of refugees who have
come into the EU countries. Poland would be number one I
would say but they're in the Netherlands they're in in France
or they're everywhere. And support is sliding people after
a year of having this go on. People are starting to get weary
and luckily she has a solution.
Unknown: Europe has taken in millions of Ukrainian refugees
and towns have been very supportive. They want to help
these people but they are saying they are straining under the on
first flooding of refugees. What can you do to help them because
they are saying they are reaching limit?
Christabel? Yes, I want to acknowledge and thank from the
bottom of my heart. All these people, Europeans who have
opened their hearts and their homes to the Ukrainian refugees
is amazing. And I understand that this is straining over
time. This is why we introduced the Temporary Protection
Directive, which means basically, direct access for the
Ukrainians to the labor market, to the schooling system to the
health system and to Social Security.
Adam Curry: Oh, okay, so it's gonna get some It's better
Europe. Now, the EU has decided apparently through this special
mechanism that the refugees can get access to your children's
schools, to your, your social services and and your social
money. Okay, so don't worry about it. Is it going to be
there for a while, but we're going to take care of it. We're
paying for them with your money.
Unknown: What's the Temporary Protection Directive, which
means basically, direct access for the Ukrainians to the labor
market, to the schooling system, to the health system and to
Social Security? Also, to help
Adam Curry: why wait a minute, Social Security? Wait a minute,
Biden said we need to give them money for Social Security? Is
this our money? Bonus? Let me just go back and listen to the
end of Biden there. Where is he? I mean, we heard that right. Let
me just check here. Last bit of Biden,
Unknown: at people so they have something something in their
pocket. It's also going to provide critical resources to
address food shortages around pensions and social support to
be paid to the Ukrainian people. So they have something
Adam Curry: pensions Okay, now, not the same thing before I
thought we were paying for it.
Unknown: Direct access for the Ukrainians, to the labor market,
to the schooling system, to the health system and to Social
Security, also to help take the burden off the shoulder of the
ordinary people who did a great job. So when you see is coming,
because the Lindsay said at this conference that
John C Dvorak: she said for the ordinary people who did a great
job, is that what she said? Yes,
Adam Curry: they did a great job of flee. Great job. Okay, I hear
you This is gobbledygook. When you see is coming? Oh, here we
go. Here comes the piece question. Now we've been paying
attention to the piece when this piece coming at this conference
Unknown: that he was thinking that the next Munich Conference,
that will be a post war conference,
do you also believe that this war will be over within a year,
I will not make any predictions, because this is not to put in
words for me at the moment being important is, as Ukraine is
fighting for our basic values for the respect for the
international law, for the UN Charter. And for the fact that
today, you cannot send tanks across a border and unleashed
that's an aggression. So Ukraine is really fighting for
Adam Curry: what do you think that means? We can't send the
tanks across the board. I'm not quite on anything, because he's
talking about here.
John C Dvorak: Tariffs play it again,
Unknown: basic values for the respect a little bit. Alright,
for me at the moment being important is, as Ukraine is
fighting for our basic values for the respect for the
international law for the UN Charter.
Adam Curry: Okay, there it is. This is important respect for
international law, respect for the UN Charter here we got the
moment
Unknown: being important is, as Ukraine is fighting for our
basic values for the respect for the international law, for the
UN Charter. And for the fact that today, you cannot send
tanks across a border and unleash such an aggression. So
Adam Curry: yes, that's what she's referring to Putin sending
track tanks across gas. Yeah, frame
Unknown: is really fighting for existential values that we have.
And therefore full support from our side. Putting imperialistic
plan must fail
a little bit more on the timeline. Are you going to be
proposing this formally Is that what's the next steps in this
proposal? And one of the problems has been that even
though there has been money, for example, through NATO, countries
have not signed contracts. And that has slowed the whole
process down. How can you ensure that once you have the money on
the table, this the contracts are signed and production can
start?
Adam Curry: Okay, that what she just throws out there, this
ladies in the know, somehow she works for Deutsche Bella
production can start, I think this is about more weapons. But
she's saying there's no contracts to said, you know,
what's the timeline for, for kicking Putin his ass, because
the contracts have not been signed.
Unknown: It is important because of the lack of contracts to give
a certain amount of certainty to the defense industry. And these
are the advanced,
Adam Curry: they want long term contracts. The defense industry
doesn't just want like just a little thing, not enough, we
want long term certainty and contracts
Unknown: of contracts to give a certain amount of certainty to
the defense industry. And these are the advanced purchase
agreements that we have good experiences with ya. And for
that it needs a European approach because it cannot rest
on the shoulders of one country for example. So this is the
approach. The second is we have DNS tuition is in place. So we
should not create something new, that we should use the European
peace facility, which has an coordination mechanism with
Ukraine, or
Adam Curry: the European peace facility, which funds the
military industrial complex is great,
Unknown: we have the institutions in place. So we
should not create something new, that we should use the European
peace facility, which has an coordination mechanism with
Ukraine already in place, we can use the so called AKA, which is
a procurement institution that is knows all the mechanism. So
for me, the practical be fast. And these are the ingredients
that we're going to put together.
Adam Curry: Alright, be practical, be fast, let's get
the money to the military industrial complex as quickly as
possible. Now back to the peace process. It looks like they're
the pieces are coming together. And what I see happening is not
a not an actual victory. You know, it's all up to Ukraine.
Not not a victory on the field. But there will be an agreement,
there will be a negotiations, and that will end the war. And
we're getting pretty close to mechanism seems to be the IPCC
the international criminal or the ICC, International Criminal
Court, special tribunal. But one question you mentioned, Vice
President Harris's speech is this a change in tone from the
White House?
Unknown: This is significant in that the US now does formally
consider Russia to have committed crimes against
humanity. But how to actually hold Russia accountable is a
huge question that countries are grappling with right now.
Ukraine is calling for a special international tribunal to try
Vladimir Putin. But that seems a long way off for now.
Adam Curry: Maybe not, maybe not we go over to CNN on on poor and
company Christianna on him poor globalist extraordinaire, they
have on Bill Browder, who, himself is a very interesting
figure who got basically kicked out of Russia. And if there's
money to be had, I'm sure he would have an interest in
hanging around to get some of it, he can probably prove that
he deserved some of it. So he is telling the on poor CNN and
company exactly what the mechanism is how it's going to
work. And why.
Unknown: Explain to me the mechanics of confidence skating,
that central bank was,
Adam Curry: this is Russia. $600 million, add to for starters.
Well,
Unknown: so at the moment, those reserve billion I'm sorry, herds
are protected by something called sovereign immunity.
Sovereign Immunity means that anything that belongs to a
country, a state can't be taken away, you can't like just move
into the embassy because you would like that property,
because it belongs to that country. And normally, that
would be a reasonable thing. And that's how international law has
worked for the last many, many years. Now, Putin has redefined
international crime, he has redrawn the borders of Europe,
he's invaded a foreign country he's killed. He's been a mass
murderer killed the unimaginable numbers of people. And so we're
sitting there in this situation where he's reading, redefine
international crime. And we're, we're sitting there saying you
and your money is still protected. We need to redefine
international law, to elevate it to the level of his the way he's
become an international criminal. And what does that
mean specifically? That means that that laws have to be passed
in a number of major developed countries, which says that
sovereign immunity always applies in every single
circumstance, except in the circumstance, when a country has
invaded a neighboring country and committed an act of
aggression, which is how this war is being defined under legal
terms. So that's the one narrow circumstance where sovereign
immunity no longer applies. If we do that, if the United States
and the European Union and Great Britain and Canada and Japan
rewrote their laws to say that sovereign immunity applies, in
all circumstances other than those, then we could then
confiscate their money. We wouldn't be doing any legally
we'd be doing it based on a law that's been rewritten to adapt
itself to the current situation.
Adam Curry: Easy, which,
John C Dvorak: of course, yes, she brings up the point that one
of the staples of Western civilization is the avoidance of
ex post facto laws, right? No, no, no, I
Adam Curry: don't think that was in there. For some reason, it
just didn't come up. Now, this is what's so beautiful. Is there
yet, what you just said is okay, we're going to convict some
somebody based upon a law we wrote after the utrust Well, I
guess they could just wait, change the law and then say all
crimes against humanity because as you know, invading another
country is a crime against humanity. It's not like, like
any of our president would fall under that, but Putin would, and
it looks like we just might have a venue for the negotiation, as
we have the trial going on in The Hague. In the Netherlands,
under the joint investigation team, the same team that
convicted Putin of being behind the Malaysian downing from a
from a rocket shot off from in Ukraine, but of course that was
Putin. It looks like there may be a venue for peace
negotiations, which I think would leave Putin with whatever
he has with Crimea, the DOM boss, he keeps all that he just,
you know, just stays on that. On that border. We cover that up
with a whole you know, with guys with with black and white tunics
on in the court. And we'll have a big show trial that probably
have his head on a stick in the, you know, in the docket, so that
we can looks like we actually have him there. And this is
where it looks like the peace negotiation may take place.
Unknown: But the war in Ukraine end sooner than expected. I know
we have been asking this question for quite some time
now. But some unexpected developments have forced us to
ask this question again. developments like these
Alexander Lukashenko inviting the American President Joe Biden
to men's waterfall, to end the Ukraine war for the unverse
Lukashenko is the president of Belarus and one of Vladimir
Putin's closest allies. In fact, they are best friends of sorts.
So when a man like this extends an olive branch to the west,
when he makes offers like these to the US president, one has to
take them rather seriously
Adam Curry: that Putin won't even go he'll send somebody else
they're going to end this after we've signed the long term
contracts, we need two years worth of ammo and training, etc,
etc, etc. And I think that signal is now gone out to the
military industrial complex one more time boys would do a two
year long term contract and then we're just going to cut it down
and stop it slowly move it over to China, which is where the the
new which is where the new focus belongs. And the only problem is
we have a couple of a whole journalists that's that's the
that's the the problem we still got to fix. Because our buddy
Matt Lee AP Diplo writer is back. He's back, given people a
hard time at the State Department, in this case, Matt
Lee grilles Rear Admiral Kirby, on who actually is the aggressor
here. Did Russia get closer to NATO? Or did NATO get closer to
Russia
Unknown: say the reason that the Russian army is on NATO? The
Russian army is at NATO's doorstep as Because NATO has
expanded rather than the Russians expanding that in other
words, NATO has moved closer to Russia rather than Russia moving
closer to NATO. Is that not an accurate way to look at this?
That's the way President Putin probably looks at it. It's
certainly not the way that we look at it.
You don't you don't think that NATO has expanded eastward
toward Russia.
NATO has expanded and they expect good thing for
the reason that the Russian army isn't NATO's doorstep is not the
fault of the Russian are not the it's not the Russian army that's
done it. It's NATO has moved closer to move here. It
wasn't NATO who was ordering, you know, upwards of 15
battalion tactical groups to within 10 kilometers of the
border with Ukraine. And I'm pretty sure it wasn't NATO, who
put little green men inside Ukraine to destabilize
eastern city sure that Ukraine is not
Adam Curry: a member of NATO. That was Victoria Nuland, who
put little green men inside them. Hey, Don,
Unknown: so unless that's changed,
it's the movement by Russia,
NATO. NATO is moved east. The reason that the Russian army is
closer or on NATO's doorstep is because NATO, NATO is
not an anti Russia Alliance. NATO is a security
fit 50 years it was an anti Russia Soviet Alliance. So what
do you not understand it? It's totally if you don't understand
how can you not even see how the Russians will perceive it as as
a threat and the fact that it keeps getting closer to their
border while their troops? I mean, the places where their
troops are you say their troops are and made may have been in
Ukraine and Georgia are not made up?
I don't have I'm not going to pretend to know what goes in
President Putin's mind or Russian military commanders. I
mean, I barely got a history degree at the University of
South Florida where I can tell you only stopped
stopped. How about that? How
about that?
John C Dvorak: Why would somebody this is like the guy
says, Look, I'm a D student. So I don't understand this sort of
thing. Well, then what are you even doing in this position? We
don't want D is this that you're an equity hire?
Adam Curry: It seems like it at this point. He's really
struggling. He's really struggling with this. Well, he's
John C Dvorak: now he's claiming to be a dummy from South
Florida. Admiral Rear Admiral
Adam Curry: retired.
John C Dvorak: By the way, I got a note from someone saying when
we did the discussion about Kirby being a woman
Adam Curry: when you when you brought this up, yes.
John C Dvorak: Despite I think it was a woman who wrote and
said I until you started talking about I always thought he wasn't
or she was a woman. No, yes. i Wow. I I believe you know, the
void. This happened to me, by the way, with the Laura Ingram,
when she was on the radio,
Adam Curry: Oh, you thought Frau Ingraham was her Ingraham. When,
John C Dvorak: when she's on the radio, I don't know how they
miked her or what they did or how the equal eacute or I don't
know what it was, but that was just an accident. I'm driving
around and actually turned her show on. I thought it was some
dude.
Unknown: years it was an anti Russia Soviet Alliance. So what
do you do not understand how can you not even see how the
Russians would perceive it as as a threat? Now?
Adam Curry: That's the question, his answer is even more baffling
when you think about what the simple question is,
Unknown: and the fact that it keeps getting closer to their
border, while their troops. I mean, the places where their
troops are you say their troops are and they may have been in
Ukraine and Georgia are not made up.
I don't have I'm not going to pretend to know what goes in
President Putin's mind are Russian military commanders. I
mean, I barely got a history degree at the University of
South Florida.
Man, that
Adam Curry: is so stupid. What I can tell you is that
Unknown: is that NATO is a defensive alliance, it remains a
defensive alliance.
But it has moved east, correct. I mean, that's just expanded.
Exactly. It's there's no
reason for anybody to think the expansion is a hostile or
threatening. And we've been saying that throughout the last
15
years now. You're, you're moving closer to Russia, you're blaming
the Russians for being close to NATO. That's exactly what
we're blaming the Russians for violating the territorial
integrity of Ukraine and destabilizing the
security system. Which is not a NATO. I see other countries feel
threatened.
Adam Curry: Yeah, goodbye. Way to go, Matt. only guy left. I
think
John C Dvorak: I barely got a history history degree at the
University of Florida. University of Florida, it was
South versus South Florida. Whatever the hell that is.
Adam Curry: one more clip here. Luckily, we know we need to keep
the German people happy. Now we got to keep them involved
because, well, you know, they actually have maybe still have
some capacity to make some weapons. I would say they except
for Airbus. They pretty much are that what's left of the defense
industry in the EU. So let's bring as Alinsky and Sean Penn
into a film festival Shall we cannot
Unknown: be neutral. Culture makes choices in times like
fees. The words of Solinsky at the opening gala of this year's
Berlinale Film Festival.
Today, Russia wants to build the same wall Ukraine, a wall
between us, between the US and Europe to separate Ukraine from
its own choice that is on future.
Now in its 73rd year, to build an Al's route, a deeply
political in nature, its foundations laid in the first
phase of the Cold War. In addition to Ukraine, pro
democracy protests in Iran will also feature at the festival.
Guests from the world of show business and politics shared the
red carpets with Iranian demonstrators. This year 19
films will be competing for the golden and silverbear awards.
Outside the main competition, films do to be screened cover
topics from race and history in the US to gender transition and
sexual identity.
Adam Curry: Oh man, I can't believe we missed that Film
Festival. Sounds like some great, great submissions this
year. Gender identity,
John C Dvorak: LGBTQ, there's nothing more entertaining than
that.
Adam Curry: One other thing happened at the low business.
Somehow they still have this, this feeble idea that we can
reach the people and convince them through celebrities and
show business. I think that left somewhere mid pandemic
worldwide. People are not just not interested anymore. But what
else happened at the Munich Security Conference is the the
canceled meeting between Abe Lincoln and Louis I think it is
the Secretary of State for China kind of took place but there
were some jabs back and forth.
Unknown: US Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with his
Chinese counterpart Randy during the global security conference.
This is the first face to face meeting between the two leaders
since the US military shut down a suspected Chinese surveillance
balloon earlier this month. taking to Twitter Blinken said
that he warned Vandy against violations of its airspace after
a Chinese spy balloon flew over North America. Lincoln further
asserted on how it was unacceptable and irresponsible
for China to send a spy balloon into the American airspace.
Earlier on Saturday, Vandy took a swipe at Washington a accusing
him of violating international norms with what Beijing calls
unbelievable and almost hysterical behavior. Beijing has
also denied using spy balloons and says that the balloon was
the weather research.
Adam Curry: So you want you have to go to W IO n to get this
information. I don't think we'd hear anywhere in the US media
that the Chinese Foreign Secretary said, Man, this is
like you're hysterical, is just hysterical behavior. Stop it you
woman. That's basically what he said. And added to that it was a
weather balloon, which we also have an All I heard was oh, the
Chinese said, sorry. No, it was it. They say they say clearly
it's a weather balloon. So what is it?
John C Dvorak: Versus or dig in pieces of it up? Or trying to
from the bottom of the 40 or 40 feet down? It's not that far.
We'll find out I think that they've been just been going on
for a while now. So I think it's been I think the information is
being suppressed.
Adam Curry: Yeah, we'll find out, huh? Sure. I
John C Dvorak: said this information is being suppressed.
Adam Curry: I got a note from same producer who told me about
the Why the f 22. did what it did. And by the way, the F 22 is
the most sophisticated aircraft I mean, this this, this whole F
22 was almost the way I picked it up as a sales job. Hey, look
what our plane can do, we can shoot balloons. The PRC balloon
engagement was at the ragged edge of the F 20. Twos
operational envelope that means the altitude the higher altitude
is harder for the airframe to maneuver. Therefore, that
engagement required one Mach 1.3 The other engagements in order
to fly because there's almost no almost no air up there, you need
speed, and otherwise, you're going to fall out of the sky. So
that's why the Mach 1.3 The other engagements weren't much
slower speeds since they were at lower altitudes, but still too
dangerous to use guns for the aforementioned reason, because
you could actually wind up flying through the debris at
that speed. A pilot, our sources told me that the F 22 Not being
able to use guns above 50,000 feet. I'd say look for some
other references, but pilots were too busy creaming
themselves over robbed demonstration of air power. See,
this is what it was it was a sales job. But it appears that
you just can't use the guns at 50,000 feet because you're going
too fast and you have to fly fast to stay afloat. Or
airborne.
John C Dvorak: Well, well, this these random assertions are one
thing I can't it's
Adam Curry: not a random assertion is from someone who.
Okay. Yes, you contacted who
John C Dvorak: is the Defense Department
Adam Curry: where you get the truth. Did you talk to Kirby say
John C Dvorak: I was gonna get the truth. I also contacted
Lockheed and the woman to watch to be on vacation over the
holiday. Yeah, the Defense Department said that information
is classified?
Adam Curry: No, of course it's F 22. We can we can It's
classified.
John C Dvorak: That plane is 25 years old. How long is it going
to be? How long is everything going to remain class?
Adam Curry: The F 22. I thought the F 22 was like the brand new
hardship machine. Yeah. That's 25 years it
John C Dvorak: is. Doesn't mean it's new.
Adam Curry: Are you sure this is a fifth Gen?
John C Dvorak: Well, the fifth Gen. Yeah, they keep upgrading.
Yeah, I'm not saying it's the same version they made 25 years
ago.
Adam Curry: Okay. All right. So my answer versus yours. I have
an answer you get It's classified. No, that makes
sense. Right, I'd have
John C Dvorak: to assume that there's I don't know why they
just does this make I told that fact the second guy got a hold
of me and he said he wanted to try to get me some answers, but
he couldn't do it.
Adam Curry: Right on cue we have China also being dicks to our
neighbors to the north. This was a big story big story in in
Canada, if people send me links about it the whole time.
Unknown: It was exactly the result Beijing wanted
you or sending us back to work, at least
according to a Globe and Mail report. It said top secret CSIS
documents detailing Beijing's sophisticated strategy to
influence the 2021 election. According to the report, China
targeted specific conservative candidates in hopes of a liberal
minority government.
Justin Trudeau knew about this interference.
The opposition accuses the prime minister of covering it up
Adam Curry: he is perfectly happy to let a foreign
authoritarian government interfere in our elections as
long as they're helping him.
Unknown: Trudeau said he's never hidden China's attempts to
interfere You're we have,
like I said, known for a long time that China and others
engage in foreign interference in Canada, including during our
elections.
Adam Curry: People are upset about this. Rightfully so.
John C Dvorak: And right, are they why don't they just vote
this guy out then? No, because
Adam Curry: there was they can't because the election fraud was
was manipulated by China. They said it's impossible. When when
Russia does it to us Trump wins. You know, when when China does
it to Canadians. Trudeau wins. It's, it's it always works.
Apparently. Anyway, right on cue China as if they are playing
along with the script does this
Unknown: tonight tensions rising after the US National Security
Council says North Korea launched an intercontinental
ballistic missile that landed in Japanese waters. This new video
released earlier today showing what Japanese military officials
say appears to be a missile falling from the sky. This is an
outrageous act which escalates application against
international such a piece of symmetry unacceptable. The
United States also strongly condemning North Korea, saying
this launch is a flagrant violation of multiple UN
Security Council Resolution. Japanese officials say the
missile was launched from the suburbs of Pyongyang flying for
nearly 66 minutes and roughly 560 miles before falling into
the Japanese exclusive economic zone west of the island of
Hokkaido. So far no reports of ships or aircraft damaged.
What's extraordinary about this video is that you can see the
actual flames when it zooms in on the missile body falling.
That's just that this came awfully close to landing on
Japanese soil.
Officials say today's launch is the first ICBM test since back
in November, when North Korea fired the powerful class on 17
ICBM.
Adam Curry: So I think we're probably going to kick this off
earlier than 2027. I mean, that's also a little bit of
wishful thinking, because I'd like to retire before 2027 from
the show.
John C Dvorak: What do you think's gonna happen in 2027?
Would
Adam Curry: you say oh, no, that's what everyone's that's
what the CIA guy the bill. The bill, William Bill from the
chiefs of CIA said China will attack in 20 years
John C Dvorak: because of some something China's wrote or
something we deciphered. 2027 Submit deal. Yeah. Which is
doesn't really match with anything else. But no cropping.
Adam Curry: Because Because this this Ukraine thing has to end
and it seems like they're positioning the money. We know
where the money is going to. The money is already there. We just
have to make it legal. To take it. And then we can start with
then BlackRock and JP Morgan can start rebuilding. And as the
Lansky will do a big piece thing. We'll do it in Minsk
which sounds official. Putin himself won't show up because he
will be convicted once. Once he's no longer they'll say, wow,
you know, once he isn't elected president again. Then he will be
convicted and we'll throw him in the brink so he'd be he'll be
charged and convicted in absentia, and we'll just keep
doing news reports about how the next election that's going to be
the one that's gonna go pick him up and he'll pay. I think they
can sell this. I think they can sell it. I think Zelinsky is
he's a great actor. Give him some lines. No problem. I
John C Dvorak: got a line from Zelinsky this one I went to
Lenski clip. Oh.
Adam Curry: Hold on. Here we go.
Unknown: There is no alternative to speed. Because it is the
speed that the life depends on
Adam Curry: the speed
John C Dvorak: alternatives to spit.
Adam Curry: There was
John C Dvorak: was this guy gonna get a voice coach.
Adam Curry: I think this is actually better than it was. I
think he's, I think he's doing better. I had one to somewhere
that someone sent me that I normally would not have played
except you played that listen to this.
Unknown: Come in the name of peace.
Adam Curry: Did you see that one? Come in the name of Chris.
All right. There you go. He's kind of entertaining. It's
entertaining me. All right. I'm sweating. Now what you got you
got to hold it. You got like this whole row of things.
John C Dvorak: My stuff's all domestic.
Adam Curry: Now. Well, that's good. I'm tired of this foreign
stuff.
John C Dvorak: I do have a couple just to be clear if I do
have an atom and you do I do, do. I do have a clip that's
called Adam and NTD hate where I can kind of understand why you
hate and TD so much. Okay, I'll play
Unknown: another train derailment more hazardous
materials. Same company, a Norfolk Southern train carrying
hazardous materials derailed outside of Detroit, Michigan
yesterday morning. Six train cars crashed off the tracks in
Van Buren township just before 9am local time.
Adam Curry: Now, why would I hate that?
John C Dvorak: Oh, so you also pronounce it Nora Falk?
Adam Curry: This is Dee Dee. I tried to Norfolk that didn't, it
really doesn't bother me. Listen, we just listened to
Zelinsky say, come with this. So I think norfork is acceptable.
In this case.
John C Dvorak: For people out there who want to know is
pronounced Norfolk Norfolk.
Adam Curry: Yeah, I probably have the most stories about
Norfolk.
John C Dvorak: Let's go to Mike. Yeah. All right. What you got?
Okay, so there was this train wreck? They can't get off Trump.
No, it's very hard. And so the thing is, is that listening to
NPR, I got two series of clips are all from NPR. And NPR has
become, it's become first once they last, when I fold it became
partisan became shit this and really went down. And we've
never seen one. And we never thought we would we would miss
Gwen Eiffel that much wrestling. We didn't know we did. But you
could tell us that when when that one important person leaves
and that everything changes. You know that one person? That was
the person that was keeping it together when Eiffel? Yes. And
then Judy came along, and she's just like some sort of a lackey
for the Democrats. But when she left now, it's worse. Now you're
talking about PBS or NPR now and what EBS PBS just said, Okay, I
thought you said I say NPR made a mistake. I get it mixed up
with the fact that Gwen aifa was never really with NPR. She's
always PPS. And she's an old pro from the network's Yes, she was.
It was Judy. But Judy was
Adam Curry: the problem we had with Gwen IFO. The reason why we
turned on her, stupidly, was because and I learned a new
word. This is years and years and years ago, because she wrote
a hagiography of Barack Obama. Yeah. And that was it was so
wrong for her stature. But we should have, we should have let
that slide because now we missed well, then
John C Dvorak: she became the host of a debate with Obama up
there. Yeah,
Adam Curry: that was that was, yeah, she was captured and it
sucked.
John C Dvorak: But she was still kept going. And so now we've
got, I think the group is pretty much turned progressive, and
gay.
Adam Curry: And the difference is,
John C Dvorak: well, it's just makes it worse. They date they,
they're more blatant. Their coverage is really so slanted. I
want to play these clips. This is more or less about the
Georgia coming back from their grand jury. And oh, and Trump
was you know, mentioned but you know, Trump didn't really do
anything, but he, he could have,
Adam Curry: what am I what do you owe the Georgia vote thing?
What is this about?
John C Dvorak: Well, there was a, there isn't it was a number
of factors. But this all gets back down to Trump's claims
about election fraud. Okay. Now, they use a loaded language,
these clips are all very short, because I have to stop them
after the guy says three words. But let's go to the word Trump's
claims and change it to Trump's false claims. And this has
bugged me to know and for years now, what is a false claim?
asking you a false claim. I'm going to say this. I'm going to
make the claim that you dyed your hair black, somebody told
me that and so I'm claiming your hair your hair is dyed black,
right?
Adam Curry: So you are you are claiming something that doesn't
mean that you have proof. And I understand what you're saying.
So a false claim would be if you said I'm dyeing my I dye my hair
black, but you actually thought it was blonde. That'd be a false
claim. But that will be inside your head. There is really no
such thing as a false claim. It's a claim.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that's what I think it's a claim unless
you're totally insincere. Right? In other words, if Trump's
claiming and by the way, this information that these clips
mostly come out of the Dominion lawsuit against Fox News,
Adam Curry: ah, yes, this is the big one. Okay, got it. So
Dominion
John C Dvorak: sues Fox News. And as we all know, if we know
anything, that there's a thing called discovery and that's why
people try it. Avoid suits. Yeah. So Dominion started
digging and digging and digging, and they got a bunch of
information that indicated that some people at Fox were
insincere during this era when that during the election 2020
election and they were saying one thing to the viewer is a
public Yes. And they were lying.
Adam Curry: This is the Fox News takedown that we talked about on
the last show Tucker Carlson texting with Frau Ingraham and
talking about Sidney Powell being a nutjob.
John C Dvorak: Well, here's the report of this. From NPR. I'm
sorry, I did it. You're gonna have to excuse me for doing
that. But from PBS. I got NPR on here too. It's all PBS.
Adam Curry: Oh, okay. You were confusing me? Yes. It's all PBS
got it. That's why
John C Dvorak: it's all PBS. I don't have any NPR clips on
today's show. So this is the way it starts. And here they're
gonna get into this the suit and they think they've got Fox over
a barrel. And here we go.
Unknown: A new point filing shows top executives at Fox News
and leading network personalities privately
dismissed former President Donald Trump's false claims of
voter fraud in the days that followed the 2020 presidential
election.
Adam Curry: Yeah, here. I see. I see what you're what you're
pointing at false claims just just claims you could just say
claims.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's journalistically, I think, and
wrongly and everything is wrong.
Adam Curry: It's like they should have said claim without
evidence.
John C Dvorak: That would, that would be even better. But false
claims is loaded language designed to make you look make
Trump look like a jerk. But this clip, they start off with just
the premise. This is the whole premise. Roseanne wants to play
this short clip play one more time.
Adam Curry: Oh, number one one more time. Yeah, okay.
Unknown: A new court filing shows top executives at Fox News
and leading network personalities privately
dismissed former President Donald Trump's false claims of
voter fraud in the days that followed the 2020 presidential
election,
Adam Curry: which to me, is I heard all of this all week long
on MSNBC, CNN, et cetera, was really them trying to take down
Fox News, the clear winners in any ratings race by any, any
observation? Yeah, any measure is,
John C Dvorak: they do mention that in passing, so. Okay, now
we're gonna that would you just heard the premise. Yep.
Throughout this report, which go I only have parts of it. The
whole thing, they never bring out any evidence, and then they
finally bring out two examples. And both both these examples are
bad. But let's go to now this is clip number two of the series,
Unknown: even as they pushed those same lies on television.
Nice.
John C Dvorak: So, okay, now all of a sudden, the false claim is,
as long as the lie
Adam Curry: I like it. I like it.
John C Dvorak: So this is where they're headed. This is the kind
of loaded report we're now getting from news our nice, it's
slanted as hell and is loaded with it's got loaded language is
very poorly done. Let's go to Okay, let's go to number three.
And this one, this is where this this is actually not them
talking. These are clips that supposedly exemplify this, but
they don't. They don't exemplify the hypocrisy that they're
claiming. they exemplify the kind of the narrative that
they're pushing. And here's a clip from Fox that they played
tonight. Every American
Unknown: should be angry, you should be outraged. You should
be worried you should be concerned. What has happened in
the election,
the Dominion software system has been tagged as one allegedly
capable of flipping votes.
How for example, did senile hermit Joe Biden get 15 million
more votes than his former boss, Rockstar, crowd surfer Barack
Obama.
Adam Curry: Rockstar crowd surfer.
John C Dvorak: Now, that last clip, which was Tucker Carlson,
was from Thursday of last week,
Adam Curry: yes, but we might as well use it now.
John C Dvorak: So it's got nothing to do with this case,
which is about the election two years ago. So why are they
playing these clips now that they continue to kind of push
the same narrative which does just I don't know. That doesn't
prove that Tucker was saying well, I Trump's full of shit. He
never does that Daniel crew it throughout this entire report.
Well, they just asserting it.
Adam Curry: Can I can I make an assertion of my own, which could
be a false claim? Because you mentioned discovery. And what I
picked up not a clip but I just picked up some reports. That
Dominion discovery documents show employees of Dominion
admitting their products are quote, riddled with critical
bugs that could due to incorrect results, maybe the Navy that has
to be shut down a little bit.
John C Dvorak: By going in the other direction you think it's
maybe it's just a thought I shouldn't bring that point up in
this report that's going to clip for
Unknown: the court filings reveal that behind the scenes,
many of the network's top stars and executives. derided Trump's
election lies is quote, mind blowingly nuts and quote totally
off the rails, even as they criticized colleagues for
pointing that out on TV. The filing is part of an ongoing
defamation lawsuit filed against the network by Dominion voting
systems.
John C Dvorak: Okay, what name names? I heard that quote who
you quoting people named Anna, who said these things?
Adam Curry: Surely they say that somewhere else don't say or the
lower third Chiron that said has nope, no,
John C Dvorak: nope, nope. And nope. Let's go to I'm just
waiting for the names. Where's the names you give me a day
finally bring some stuff out. But it's got nothing to do with
what their assertion is. Let's go to clip six.
Unknown: Joining us now is David Falk.
Adam Curry: And I'm sorry, this is clip five is not the right
one. Yes, five. Joining us
Unknown: now is David Folkenflik. Who covers for NPR.
David, thanks for joining us. First explain how we learned
about these text messages how they're part of this nearly $2
billion defamation lawsuit filed against Fox right. It's a
blockbuster case that's been filed by Dominion voting
services systems, an election tech company that is at the core
of a lot of these fraudulent claims of fraud
Adam Curry: fraudulently claims
John C Dvorak: of fraud.
Adam Curry: So that actually means that it is fraud because
it's a fraudulent claim of fraud than it was. Then it was not
fraud, but it was fraud.
John C Dvorak: I don't know. I tell you this is folk and folk
whatever this guy's name is. I looked him up I think that's
German guy has a hard on from Rupert Murdoch, like nobody he
shouldn't even be allowed to be on TV focus. And I was thinking
about this because if you look at his all his old works, he's
just after Murdoch. He hates Murdoch
Adam Curry: hates him. And who is this guy who what is he is?
John C Dvorak: He's a he's just a kind of a hack journalist has
been doing? Not a lot.
Adam Curry: I'm reading I'm reading the discovery. And I'll
just I'll Intersperse your report with a few brief things
Mark Beck strand. This is from the discovery document, Mark
Beck strand, who probably has sex with Folkenflik but Dominion
sales manager confirmed that other parties have gotten a hold
of Dominions equipment illicitly in the past, and identified
specific instances in Georgia and North Carolina and testified
that a Dominion machine was hacked in Michigan. This is in
the discovery so it's not such a wonder that this this is
happening
John C Dvorak: to these guys so this is a key while you're there
you have here is it this is a smokescreen for the real story,
which probably is cover up Yeah. But meanwhile so this is Falken
guy I was thinking about this because he just had you can look
at his old material and because he's you know, it's on the net.
And it's just hard on for for Murdoch, like there's no
tomorrow, I have to assume because I've seen this happen
here and there. And I have examples of it from real life
situations in the Bay Area with guys who tried to get a job
someplace got refused or kicked out or said no and they get out
there on the rampage against the company. And so they're just so
I think that's what's going on with this guy. So he's useless
as a as a correspondent in this in this arena. It was proudly
fraudulent claims of fraud with this beat. Well, let's question
Adam Curry: Do you think it's possible fraudulent frame cloud
claims of fraud? Do you think it's possible that really all
they want is just one thing they just want Tucker Carlson off the
air?
John C Dvorak: I think that's a big part. It's
Adam Curry: gotta be Sean Hannity is is basically he's
harmless. Frau Ingraham is the same. They go after both of them
John C Dvorak: I know what their next human products entertained
next two clips are they go after Tucker and this is the example
they cite. This is a read of some memo they cite of Tucker.
Showing that he's a phony. Oh, I don't see it. I want you to
listen to this and tell me what it what makes you think he's a
phony. This clip seven clip six. Oh, okay. What did we get to?
Adam Curry: I'm off Folkenflik one more time. So shortly. Okay,
John C Dvorak: let's go back with Folkenflik fraudulent
claims
Unknown: of fraud that were ventilated on Fox News in the
immediate aftermath of the November 2020 elections.
John C Dvorak: Okay, kept adding because their use of the word
ventilated.
Adam Curry: Ooh, a kind of like that.
John C Dvorak: fraudulent claims of fraud that were ventilated. I
think he meant vented. But I liked the whole sequence
fraudulent
Unknown: claims of fraud that were ventilated on Fox News in
the immediate aftermath.
Adam Curry: This is what you should try Your wife, you know,
you're just ventilating fraudulent claims of fraud. See
how that works? Yeah, your marriage works out.
John C Dvorak: It did all these clips are just to point out the
bad journalism that you have that you're getting from the
nation's one of the nation's treasures, and use our
treasures. Yeah, it's really out. It's out of control. But
let's go into here's their example about Tucker,
Unknown: a brutal, brutal portrait that we have seen about
the cynicism, the sense of crisis, the fear and the anger
that was generated inside of Fox, in reaction to their
audiences recoiling from the network's own call of Arizona
for Joe Biden on election night, the first of any major network
to do
so. What becomes clear from reading through this filing is
that Fox knowingly peddled election lies for ratings.
There's a text in particular from Tucker Carlson, and he is
suggesting here that a Fox News White House correspondent should
be fired. For fact checking a Trump claim about the election.
He says, Please get her fired. I'm actually shocked. It needs
to be stopped immediately. Like tonight, it's measurably hurting
the company, the stock price is down. Not a joke.
Adam Curry: Not a joke. He's using Biden stuff now.
John C Dvorak: So it shows there was some woman on the staff that
was doing the kip tech, typical Washington Post style fact
checking, oh, he said six and it was actually seven fact check.
So she was this she was doing this and some Tucker said she
did not a good look. But no,
Adam Curry: that's very bad. Look what he does.
John C Dvorak: But what's it got to do with the original premise
that taught did nothing claim that Tucker was saying that the
election was fraudulent. But behind everyone's back, he was
saying no, Trump's nuts, it's not fraudulent at all. How does
that example prove that point?
Adam Curry: It doesn't at all. The only the only one I heard is
probably the next clip that you have. That's the only that's the
only text message that could get this
John C Dvorak: next was an extra day. I think they they actually
Oh, no, this another text message. This is about a Hannity
now. Oh, I
Adam Curry: thought this was Powell.
John C Dvorak: It's about Hannity and Powell. No. Okay.
And this is another did another one of their examples. And
again, I'm not seeing it play this and you tell me how you're
interpreting this because Trump's not even in the
conversation.
Unknown: As Sean Hannity, even as he was giving her airtime. He
later said in a deposition, quote, the whole narrative that
Sidney Powell was pushing, I did not believe it for one second.
John C Dvorak: Oh, no. I listened to Sidney Powell. I
didn't believe anything she said either. I also didn't believe
Steve BitFenix. nonsense about the military taken over anybody
else. I thought I thought the election was sketchy for other
reasons. Like you know, people not getting to go check on
things Debellis disappearing, ballot harvesting and things
like that. You. So what they're trying to imply here is that you
have to be all in on everything. So if you question Sidney
Powell, you're a hypocrite.
Adam Curry: Yes, that's what they did with Tucker Tucker had
a text back in exchange with Frawley Ingraham from Ingraham
says Powell was full of shit. And then Tucker says, yeah,
she's totally full of shit. And what was it? And we need to not
be putting her on the air because people are people, our
viewers, believe us. I mean, it seems like Tucker is really he's
very concerned for the for the for the organization. Now that
we have that talking about the stock price being down. That's
kind of that is actually more telling about Tucker than I
didn't expect that he would be so concerned about the company.
Folkenflik is the author of Murdoch's world, the last of the
old media empires. So he wrote the book, he wrote the
John C Dvorak: he's just so he's no good that this whole report
was bad. So the show the news, our show keeps going on and they
bring on late in the show. Brooks and Capehart Oh, no. Oh,
no. Two guys again, you know. So they bring them on and they
breathe, visit the topic.
Unknown: It's time for the analysis of Brooks and Capehart.
That's New York Times columnist David Brooks and Jonathan
Capehart, associate editor for The Washington Post with a
welcome to you both. Let's start with this revelation late last
night in this court filing and dominion voting systems lawsuit
against Fox News is that showing that Fox executives and hosts
didn't believe the election lies that they were peddling on
television. David, what do you make of this notion that Fox
determined Is that telling the truth and being straight with
its vote with its viewers was not good for its bottom line?
Yeah, I don't know whether to feel relieved or not that Tucker
didn't really believe what he's saying. Like, he maybe has some
core and that's actually honest.
Adam Curry: What? Donors, yeah,
Unknown: that's a watch.
John C Dvorak: He goes on takes then picks up the cudgel and
goes on with this thing that Tucker was insincere about the
company know about the election fraud.
Unknown: You know, all of us. I mean, here in sainted PBS, we're
gonna go after prophets. But at the New York Times, and most
other news organizations, we have two missions, we want to
sell the truth, we want to live up to the ethics of our
profession. We also want to attract readers and serve our
viewers and make money for our company. And you know, dealing
with that tension is not unique doctors, do it, lawyers do it.
And but until you find the balance, and you try to hew to
the code of your profession, and do it the best you can and hope
that readers will will appreciate that at Fox, that's
apparently not how it works.
John C Dvorak: Can you believe these guys?
Adam Curry: I love it. I want to have a drink with them. This is
great.
John C Dvorak: And by the way, well, let's play the last one, I
have a good comment about their great ethics over there.
Unknown: And that the ethos of following the code of honesty or
reporting, telling the truth, which is our only job, our only
job is just to tell the truth, and not be partisan. That's our
job. And if you can't do the basics of the job, then pretty
soon you you lose all Barrett Warren more moral bearing. And I
think not everybody that agency, a lot of people really left but
a lot of people who used to be friends of mine. They lost all
their moral bearing and shows.
Adam Curry: And yeah, that sounds like your friends. The
Lib Jos lib Jos Yeah, that's exactly what you would say,
Unknown: but a lot of people who used to be friends of mine, they
lost all plans, crying and shows.
And Jonathan this, in many ways, reaffirms what critics of Fox
News have believed all along that even though it has news in
the title, that that is a thin veneer at best.
Yeah, very thin. It's more like carpaccio, if you want to give a
culinary analogy. Look, look what this Dominion paper the
filing shows is that the big the big lie is indeed a big lie. And
that the people who were perpetuating it knew it was a
lie. And yet they still went on air night after night after
night, perpetuating it to the detriment of our country. And
yeah, they they lost their balance. They lost their moral
core if any of them had any
John C Dvorak: law. If any of them had any. There are a bunch
of creeps. This is the most dishonest reporting you could
possibly have bigoted bias name calling. And meanwhile, we'll be
going on and on about this when they're so great. Today even
discussed during the K part and Brooke segment, the fact that
the Cavanaugh accusers, two of them so far have reneged on
their accusations about rape and all the rest of it. I don't
recall that. No, of course not. Nobody's covering it. But the
Kavanaugh accusers are now being referred to the Justice
Department by Grassley for perjury this is a this is a
repressed story. Look it up. Google it.
Adam Curry: Oh, I Neva stuff.
John C Dvorak: So so this, I've just found it. The worst kind of
reporting biased and bigoted, dishonest, and that's what PBS
has become fraudulent claims against fraud.
Adam Curry: Yeah. Are you surprised, disappointed?
John C Dvorak: No, I just like to get worked up. Well,
Adam Curry: that's successful. Here's the actual text that I
was referring to. Tucker Carlson tech, Sidney Powell was lying by
the way I caught her. It's insane. Laura Ingraham. Sidney
is a complete nut. No one will work with her Ditto with Rudy
and Tucker. It's unbelievably offensive to me. Our viewers are
good people and they believe it. What a horrible thing to say as
a television journalist. Horrible, horrible to protect
the good people who are the viewers. Tucker's a real
company, ma'am. That is that surprises me. He must. I mean, I
wonder if a lot of his compensation is based on options
now. And now I have to think about that.
John C Dvorak: You know, that could be that'd be a good way to
pay him.
Adam Curry: You can read the 183 pages of the of the filing.
There's a lot of you remember a Coomer Eric Cooma, Director of
Product Strategy, but just a couple weeks before the
election, he acknowledged that quote, our shit is just riddled
with bugs. Our products suck, that almost all dominions
technological failings were due to our complete effed up effing
up the installation. He identified critical bug leading
to incorrect results. I mean, this is the it's the cover up
this is exactly the way and I guess he wanted to bring some
clips now of how all media except maybe a talker or some
some Fox reporting, but basically they're all they all
suck up the Twitter files. You know, the all you hear on on and
you should probably look to PBS and NPR as well. Oh, it's just a
conspiracy theories is saying the FBI was running Twitter.
That's crazy talk. And they just play a couple of clips of
talker. You know, they don't actually show you any of the
documents that are coming out. And though this is this, the
problem is, it's not even the media anymore. It's the medium.
I think podcasting is the only place you place you can get it.
Get it do
John C Dvorak: that. That was good. That was funny. Sorry.
We're gonna bitch and moan about people. I do have a couple more
clips. I'm glad you do. Don Lemon.
Adam Curry: I have thoughts about Don Lemon. Yeah, can I
just give you my thoughts off the bat. And then you got your I
have no clips. But I think Don Lemon is a genius. Don Lemon has
taken this. He's not he knows that he has a job to do. He
knows that he failed in his primetime slot, more or less
primetime. He knows that he's on his last leg. And I know that
you're thinking, according to the newsletter, is that, you
know, this is brilliant that the new boss of CNN is trying to get
him out. I think Don Lemon has grabbed this and said, You know
what, I'm gonna get everybody watching because that's the
result of this was everything he says more people are going to
watch. This is how you run a cable news show. You need to
have controversy. So people show up. And I think he's doing the
right thing here.
John C Dvorak: Well, you know, that would make a lot of sense
if he showed up after the fact. And he just went on vacation. So
he's not going to be there. But so that kind of blows that
theory. bonus clips.
Adam Curry: Oh, I'm sorry. You didn't alert me to any bonus.
John C Dvorak: I forgot to alert you earlier. You should always
have them so I never do that.
Adam Curry: Oh, this clip activity. Oh, no. You all you
always say you get the bonus clips.
John C Dvorak: I know. I always say it and you always say yep, I
got him. What do you think?
Adam Curry: That's right. I decided to
John C Dvorak: call Google double fail. Were you the one
time I don't ask is the one time you don't do it makes me wonder
if I ever do it.
Adam Curry: No, but what's really cool is that you and I
know how this works. So you gave me enough time there to rack
them up and I'm good to go. All you need to do is just tell me
which bonus clip you want because I haven't right here.
John C Dvorak: So I have two Don Lemon clips. One of them is
what's what are they netlabel because I don't have in front of
me
Adam Curry: Beadon I got beat on beat on a beat on lemon blonde
air. B Meyer on CNN B mooch como be mooch opener.
John C Dvorak: Okay, be Don Lemon, whatever it was
Unknown: this all the talk about age makes me uncomfortable.
John C Dvorak: Okay, great. Let's stop. I do have to set it
up. You do. So on the morning show they This came after Nikki
Haley. Yes jokingly said de I don't understand why they don't
give everybody a cognitive test. After these, you know, he took
his physical and he passed it and flying colors but he never
took a cognitive test even though finally the same
Democrats are the ones moaning and groaning about Trump getting
one he did get one. But Biden hasn't gotten Hey, you are
Adam Curry: like listening to Twitter. This is great. All
right. Yes. Oh gee. Oh, you should try Tim Poole. This is
exactly
John C Dvorak: this is exactly what we finished this are now
you can just gonna go
Adam Curry: I want to. I want to antagonize you to get more out
of you. This is great.
John C Dvorak: So so she brought this up and so this rubbed Don
Lemon the wrong way because Don lemons a Democrat, he's pushing
me in over Biden to get reelected and he didn't think
this was much of this of this idea, you know, and then it
didn't call out Nikki Haley and hilarity ensued.
Unknown: This whole talk about age makes me uncomfortable. I
think that I think it's the wrong road to go down she says
people you know politicians or something and not in their prime
Nikki Haley is in her prime sorry, when a woman is
considered to be in her prime in her 20s and 30s. And maybe 40s.
That's not according to me for what it depends on it's just
like prime if you look it up, it'll if you look, if you Google
when there's a woman in her prime, it'll say 20s 30s and
40s. I don't know That's how I got it. I agree with that. So I
think she has to be careful about saying that we, you know,
politicians are under their primary qualifier
you're trying for like child rearing.
facts or Google at everybody at home. When there's a woman in
her prime, it says 20s 30s and 40s. And I'm just saying Nikki
Haley should be careful about saying that politicians are not
in their prime. And when they need to be in their prime when
they serve, because she wouldn't be in a prime according to
Google, or whatever it is.
Adam Curry: I'm just going to counter you. I think you should
be a little more pragmatic about this. It's not because of the
Democrats because he's gay. He hates women. He's surrounded by
beautiful women. He's the kind of gay guy that hates women.
John C Dvorak: I agree with that. I could have brought that
up. I didn't, because a lot of gay guys are still a big Biden
man. And yes, he hates women. And there are gay a lot of gay
men who hate women. There's a lot of gay women who hate men.
Yes. And so that's why I thought it was genius to put him in that
show genius to carping women who would just go after anything he
says, because I don't think they like gay men. No,
Adam Curry: and this is what I am in agreement with you I think
they're doing their job but somehow it's looking at the
ratings it really isn't catching on but it should the formula of
gay guy hates women to women who hate gays, gay guys, I agree
winning formula, but somehow they're not able to execute. So
that just comes down to seeing and management Don lemons doing
his job as far as I'm concerned.
John C Dvorak: By being a dick, yeah, he took off now he's in
Miami, so he's not coming back. And
Adam Curry: he's in a red state. Are you kidding me? He went to
Miami.
John C Dvorak: Well, he's in some where,
Adam Curry: where you can't say gay.
John C Dvorak: That's where he went. So all I can say, Oh, see,
he's
Adam Curry: a hypnotist. So.
John C Dvorak: So anyway, but then the joke of it. I'm not
good. This is not a great clip. But this is a clip from the
marsh show. We're one of the women on their on his. This is
the show that played on CNN. Mar immediately.
Adam Curry: This is the Drew 90,000 viewers. Yeah. We
literally have 10 times that amount listening to this blather
we're doing right now. That's the best
John C Dvorak: Mark goes on. He gets his gig gets money. He's
getting more money for this 90,000 viewers and we are for
our nine I hope you didn't take stock. So he goes on CNN and
this is the after show that he used to give away for free on
the online now it's on CNN. After is It is Friday show he
does his Friday show they do an after show. And you can watch
that if you want and nobody did. So CNN looking for material
said, Hey, Bill, give us that show. And we'll you know, we'll
just put it on the air. And here's some money. Sorry. And
anyway, so he puts this on here. And so he's got has to have
mixed feelings about the woman that's on there kind of
convention about CNN itself.
Adam Curry: Nikki Haley has called for politicians over 75
years old Z Oh, yes. To be required to take a mental health
competency test. I wonder who that's aimed at? Both of them,
right.
Unknown: I think it's both I think she's trolling it allows
her to draw attention to Biden, she's in Republican primary, but
it's a subtle hit on Trump. They're both older politicians,
they have every right to run people. The competency test is a
really long campaign. And people will assess how they seem. But
shouldn't we do that for everybody? Why just over 75?
Because, I mean, my house of representatives, there's only
one age requirement, the Constitution has a minimum age.
And that was because they were so worried about people passing
things on to their famous sons at the time. There's no maximum
age, but we have that for pilots and other things. But again, I
think it's hard if you've covered these things, you know
how it is, it's hard to run for president and we're gonna see
how they do and then you're gonna decide at the debates and
other forums whether they seem like they got it?
Well, as Don Lemon told us on CNN, women actually can't run
for president because he's never past our prime once we get to
our 40s. But since you have to be 35 to run it's like this
really tight window between 35 and 40.
Adam Curry: Now tell me the show doesn't have music under it.
John C Dvorak: I'm hoping it doesn't. I picked it off of
somebody who clipped it.
Adam Curry: And yes,
John C Dvorak: I was sorry,
Adam Curry: did I refuse to play that if there's music under it?
Well,
John C Dvorak: I couldn't find not going to go to CNN and dig
through the archives to find it. So I took the clip, I say rip
the clip off. So
Adam Curry: there's there's there's something that goes
along with this particular story about Cognizant cognition of our
politicians. And of course, you know, we ha It's Haley. Hi, it's
orange MAN bad. But here's the real story.
Unknown: Also at Walter Reed today, President Biden who was
there for his annual checkup, a matter of high interest as the
president who is now 80 years old is expected to run again.
ABC is definitely Ramos at the White House for us and
Stephanie, what are we learning from the President's Doctor
tonight?
Well, with that five page detailed health report released
right before our show, overall, President Biden getting a clean
bill of health today he spent three hours at Walter Reed
undergoing many tests. In that health report, the President's
doctor says Biden continues to be treated for for different
conditions, a type of irregular heart rhythm, higher
concentrations of fats or lipids in the blood, also known as high
cholesterol, gastro esophageal reflux and seasonal allergies.
The summary says Biden did not experience any long COVID
Following his bout with the virus in July of 2022. His
doctor also says that Biden is fit to successfully execute the
duties of the presidency,
Adam Curry: where's the brain analysis?
John C Dvorak: Well, they also left something out that everyone
else kind of brought up which he has an awkward gait. Yeah. And
the doctor brought it up. And I was thinking about this because
this goes back to the our show's been on for a long time. Yeah.
And we used to do a segment about Biden called and we have a
jingle for it. Called drunk or not drunk.
Adam Curry: I don't think that's true. Did that start with Biden?
Yes. I don't didn't really. Where's the jingle? Oh, here it
is. Yes, we do I just showed. Was that about Biden?
John C Dvorak: I'm pretty sure it was about but I'm not pretty
sure I'm convinced it's about Biden, because we had a lot of
Biden clips because he was always slurring and could be his
energy was off and we'd play a clip of Biden and then it would
be drunk or not drunk. And but we haven't
Adam Curry: for Nadler for Kamala, we do have him for Oh,
George Bush.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, Bush is always tiny drunk, too. But
there was a lot of Biden clips and Biden goes way back with
having this kind of high, you know, energy and then having
this drunk sound. I think he was an alcoholic. And I think that's
where that gate comes from. Because I that gate, I have seen
that gate. A number of times from out and out drunks that
lived in the neighborhoods they've been in. I think he's
just
Adam Curry: old and senile. I mean, why throw it on the drunk
thing? He's just old.
John C Dvorak: Saying you get it. Get a gate like that. You
now okay. He is now old and seen while I'm on the domestic beat
condemning things. Yes. Yeah. So he just Anthony Scaramucci has a
podcast now.
Adam Curry: Yeah. Really. You're really digging at the bottom of
the barrel when you're going to the to Anthony Scaramucci, his
podcast.
John C Dvorak: And I think I may have had some influence on it
because he did one of his first podcast technically with me
Adam Curry: while he's also friends with with Horowitz
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Oh, they are? Yeah. Yes, they are friends
because of the investment angle, but he's also super good
friends. Super good, super
Adam Curry: good. Friends, Trump with
John C Dvorak: Cuomo with Cuomo. He's on his podcast. And this is
because I wanted to get this clip since we're bashing Don
Lemon and Cuomo saying that when he got fired from CNN, he wanted
to kill everyone and then kill himself.
Unknown: Good time is going to go away. Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Adam Curry: You're giving me cues?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I'm sorry. But so the thing is, I got two
clips here. First, I've got the opening clip of his show, which
got an undo Columbo. I just want to point out to it's out of
phase. Now, not everybody knows what that means. But you do
Adam Curry: I do. Yes. It sounds like you're talking through your
butthole
John C Dvorak: is out of phase and you get that you can get out
of phase using stereo mics. There's a lot of different ways
you can achieve the sound. But it's not wanted. It's not the
idea. It's not the idea. And his so his he and the thing is is
local he's out of phase, and his does guests not aren't
necessarily which makes it even more rinky dink madness, but I
want to play the beginning of him so you can hear what I'm
talking about with an out of phase situation where the
recording
Adam Curry: music is good.
Unknown: I am Anthony Scaramucci, and welcome Oh, good
book where I talk with some of the most interesting and
brilliant minds in our world today. In this show, I'll bring
on guests in business, politics, entertainment and more to go
deep into a piece of their work. Whether it's a highly
anticipated book, an in depth feature story or an opinion
piece that has captured my attention. We'll dig into why it
matters to you and how their work is shaping our future.
Adam Curry: Now how about little detail on your investment with
FTX their motion Yeah, that was that was a really
John C Dvorak: they also he also pops his PS what kind
Adam Curry: of what kind of mic does it maybe the mic maybe
using a weird mic that he's
John C Dvorak: mic so using contribute to
Adam Curry: people have like these you get these USB mics
that people run through a mixer that could be
John C Dvorak: yeah what there's a lot of possibilities whatever
the case is he hasn't got a pop filter and he's popping his
piece and is and he's and he's awkward. He doesn't feel
comfortable. You can tell he doesn't like doing this. I don't
know why he's doing it. But he did have Cuomo on and Cuomo
here. And it's not as spectacular as I'd hoped. But
Cuomo does say he was wanted to shoot everybody as CNN and then
kill himself after he got fired. And by the way, if people want
to hear a self absorbed person of being interviewed, go find
his Scaramucci podcasting and listen to Cuomo just talks about
himself excessively and he's like he's just he's just really
must be insufferable in person. But this is the part I it's not
as great as I'd hoped. But he did. I'm thinking now he's
working for this other operation news, reality or news? Whatever
Adam Curry: newsletter news newsletter news, and
John C Dvorak: I would say I would be really skeptical about
being a producer for him if this is what he thinks, but here it
is for people who want to know
Adam Curry: as producers were child Fiddler's
John C Dvorak: is that. Okay?
Unknown: Good. Time is going to go away the bad time is also
going to go away. I'm is immutable. No question.
Adam Curry: Totally crap. Everything's out of phase this.
This whole thing is out of phase,
Unknown: right? But it's very subjective. Just because a long
time goes away, doesn't mean you gotta be doing the right things.
You got to make things happen. There is no luck. There is no
fate, there is no destiny. What happens is what you make happen
and how you deal with what is made to happen to you, for
better and worse. And, you know, I make a lot of mistakes.
Sometimes for good reasons, sometimes for bad reason. I'm
very flawed, there's damage, there's damage that's relatable
to people, there's damage that's unrelatable to people that I
have to deal with that I tried to deal with that I do the work
on, I still fail. And I have learned to accept that I had to
accept because I was going to kill everybody, including
myself. Things can consume you Italians are so passionate, and
I really had to fight against that. Because, you know, just
like you did. I got too many people counting on me.
Adam Curry: Does he? I got so many people counting on me. Does
he is he have a book out about him wanting to kill him. That's
probably this is a setup. Either it's out or he's getting ready
for it. He's promoting a book about his IOMMU I wanted to kill
everybody wanted to kill myself. It's all about me. Look at me
because Italians are passionate. Screw this guy. Don't close.
John C Dvorak: Close. Close. But believe me, you're close. But
the thing is, he had a book deal that was killed after he was
fired. And he's suing the publisher. So he's got no book
coming out and you start suing publishers. You're gonna be Oh,
yeah, you're never gonna get a book. That's like
Adam Curry: saying I was discriminated against as a
woman. I didn't get a raise. That's right. You're never
working in television again. Natali Morris?
John C Dvorak: Well, I need it better was cat Sadler down an E
News.
Adam Curry: All right. Back to gay. Because you tell me since
you're the expert, is this a man or a woman speaking?
Unknown: One example would be the quote unquote don't say gay
law in Florida. You know it. Studies show that one supportive
adult
Adam Curry: man or woman, man. And what is the man's name?
Karen No, Rachel.
John C Dvorak: That's Rachel. That's Rachel lovey. It sounds
like a man. Well, looks like a woman.
Unknown: One supportive adult for an LGBT actually this is
Adam Curry: a pretty interesting clip. I've carried this over for
a few shows. This is what Rachel Levine had to say. And it's
about Florida. This is why I play it the don't say gay law
but just listen to what P she you think used to be Richard.
I'm just gonna dead name because this I don't even believe that
Rachel Levine is transferred because because he believes he's
trans. I just it's hard for me to believe that seems like a
gag.
John C Dvorak: Kind of like, like the guy like to teach
Adam Curry: with the big boobs Exactly. Feels like a gag again.
Unknown: One example would be the quote unquote, don't say gay
law. In Florida. You know it, studies show that one supportive
adult, one supportive adult for an LGBTQ plus kid can make all
the difference in terms of preventing suicide in terms of
them, being able to navigate the world and to adulthood and
leading a you know, a happy, successful, productive life.
Once sort of Dove. I'd love it if that was always the parent,
but it's not always apparent. Frequently, it's a teacher, or a
guidance counselor or some other coach or another school
personnel. This law forbids kids essentially from from talking to
these people, because they also, it means that the that if you
tell a teacher, the teacher has to tell the parent. And so it
really is, is a gag rule, it's a gag law, to to to hell, and that
to two kids from accessing supportive adults.
Adam Curry: So really is better if, if this is just one, you
only need one supportive adult, this is. Yes, I think if a
teacher, whatever your child is going through a teacher should
talk to the parents about it shouldn't be just and especially
not if teachers just have the capability to enjoy. Let's go
talk to this doctor over here. Anyway, that that's your
Assistant Secretary of Health and Human Services. So now let's
listen to de Santos. As you would say, Ronnie, I do not like
the directions he's headed. This sounds like a good idea. But I
don't like it. So
Unknown: what is the digital Bill of Rights? Well, we want to
protect your right as a Floridian to have private in
person conversations without big tech surveilling you, if you
want to consent to let them have this information. So they can
fashion advertising based off of it, it's your right to consent
to do so. But it should only be if you consent, and they don't
have a right to have that information. As a matter of
first principle, we also are going to protect the right to
participate in online platforms without unfair censorship. We
want free speech, we want more speech, not less speech, we want
to protect the right to know how these Internet search engines
are manipulating search results, transparency, in terms of what
we're doing so that you can evaluate whether that's a search
engine that you want to use. Or maybe you want to take your
business elsewhere. We want to protect your right to control
all your personal data on the largest and most common
platforms, they take that personal data, and they make a
fortune off your personal data. So you're talking about Google,
Facebook, just a handful these companies, they should really
get Express authorization from you before they're able to
monetize that or use it in any way. And then finally, digital
Bill of Rights aims to protect children from various online
harms. And as we see, that's a huge issue.
Adam Curry: Yeah, yeah. Somebody Think of the children, there
should be no legislation. This digital especially called the
Digital Bill of Rights. No, these are all rights we have,
instead of what they want. What DeSantis wants is he wants
control. He wants to control the internet. This is why they all
put but it's net neutrality is the same thing. I mean, this,
this debate will not end well. You don't really want this you
want education. You want to tell people, here's the here's all
the crap that's going down. Here's the systems and here's
the companies that do it. Here's what they do. Just just educate
people continuously. That's what they need. Not to Oh,
government's going to save me government's going to protect
me. That has never worked out. I'm hoping you would agree with
me on this.
John C Dvorak: Well, just to take the other side of it,
because you do that to me now every day. Well, you deserve and
I would pray. I would say it's just blather. It's just he's
just talking out of his ass because none of this is going to
happen one way or the other. Oh, that's digital. Right? That's
just Italys just bullshit. That's just as good. I'll take
that.
Adam Curry: Look, okay, I want to move to climate change
because there's stuff happening. Yes, yes, there's good stuff
happening and climate change the war
Unknown: means
Adam Curry: a war on me. Let's make meat look bad. We
Unknown: also learned today that a Wisconsin company paid more
than one and a half million dollars in fines for violating
child labor laws. The Labor Department says packers
sanitation services had more than 100 children, some as young
as 13, working at more than a dozen meat processing plants in
eight states.
Adam Curry: Now when I was 13 I had jobs like that not
meatpacking. But
John C Dvorak: I wouldn't think so. No,
Adam Curry: but there were there. I worked. I did work for
FAR. I worked for a butcher. I did some stuff and I didn't
actually pack the meat. But I was around I mean, you're not
allowed to have a job when you're 13
John C Dvorak: like a Saturday jobs when I was 13. I had jobs
Adam Curry: when I was a paperboy. Same with me. Is that
not allowed anymore?
John C Dvorak: I said I said I think it is but I think when I
was a kid and I wanted to work in a factory and I wasn't which
is, you know, in high school, for example, you had to get a
work permit.
Adam Curry: Oh, okay. I've never gotten that.
John C Dvorak: So I got a work permit to work a full time job
and during the summer, and I think you had to be 14 to get to
work permit or 15 to 14, probably. And you get these it
was really just a rubber stamp.
Adam Curry: Exactly me well, by Nike. There's no children
involved in gluing that together.
John C Dvorak: All right, well, that's a good point. It's kind
of hypocritical report.
Adam Curry: Let's go down to the electric vehicles. There's a hit
out on EVs. It has to it has to happen because we're moving to
clean hydrogen, which just will not work 56,000 hydrogen
vehicles already on the road in America. So they say, Here's
Bloomberg. Kind of setting the narrative. This was a podcast,
by the way, setting the narrative with this guy, Steven
schork about just how bad electric vehicles are for the
environment. This obviously revolves around the battery.
Unknown: You said a line there, I think it was EVs are certainly
not that environmentally friendly. Explain that to us.
Yeah. I mean, this look what's happening in California right
now, we're at the first lifecycle ending of those solar
panels. California does not never had a plan to dispose of
those solar panels. So now all the heavy metal that was sold
pens was sitting in a dumps with potential of all the heavy
metals in there leaking out into the environment. And now when
you factor in the fact that EVs are such a small percentage of
the global market, when we talk about the amount of Earth, and
we're talking about something about the size of the state of
Arizona, and Nevada, just here, the United States to see our
demand, the amount of Earth you're going to have to rip up
to get to these heavy metals. So that's we're ripping up China,
we're going to rip up the Congo, which we already are, we're
going to rip up Argentina to get to the to the cobalt there, when
we have to rip up that earth it will make 120 130 years of coal
mining and oil drilling look like a pinprick of the amount of
environmental degradation we're gonna have to do to get those
virtue signaling and heavy metals into that evey battery
states and why don't we have in that conversation more? I don't
know. I mean, it's what we're doing because we're such a
fractured political donation, if I'm seeing something 49 50% of
the people watching this think I'm nuts and think I'm some kind
of pushing some sort of agenda. I'm just looking for a meeting
of the minds and I want to I want to I want to really promote
my hybrid. It's the best of both worlds. It's a little bit of
fossil dough going away there. And it's a little bit of
electricity. It's a little bit of both compromise.
Adam Curry: Yeah, there it is. The war is on and this is my
favorite one. Oh, Tesla recalls,
Unknown: voluntarily recalling more than 360,000 vehicles
warning that it's experimental Driver Assistance software may
cause crashes. Federal investigators say Tesla's full
self driving beta software can send cars straight through
intersections where there's a turn only lane failed to come to
a full stop at stop signs or blow through yellow lights. It
says it will update the software in the impacted vehicles.
Adam Curry: So the choice here for the term recall is very
interesting for
John C Dvorak: very controversial NPR locally, I
didn't have the clip, but I was gonna get it it just seemed a
little long and boring. But they made a big fuss about it Tesla
made the first it was must be so why we're not nobody has to
drive their car indices and over there were software fix. Why do
you insist on calling it a recall? And NPR persisted on
calling it a recall as though they were in on it. Here's ABC
Unknown: CEO Elon Musk
is taking issue with the word recall saying using that word
for an over the air software update is just plain wrong.
Adam Curry: Yeah, but she's on the losing end. He's on the
losing end while
John C Dvorak: he was I doing clip for this series Tesla crash
Unknown: is dead after
Adam Curry: a Tesla slam into a fire truck in the East Bay
happened this morning. A northbound six ad Firefighters
say the Tesla hit a truck that was blocking a different crash
driver died at the scene. Passenger and four firefighters
were taken to the hospital. They have all since been released.
Yeah, I love the Super Bowl commercials. Most people who
hate Tesla was not Yeah, it was Tesla, right. They're out to get
them they're out to get they're out to eat well, ever
John C Dvorak: since Musk said vote Republican. And ever since
he began ever since the
Adam Curry: Twitter files. Of course. Maybe he's only maybe
he's not that smart. Oh, what did I just say there?
John C Dvorak: Maybe this is a part of a bigger play.
Adam Curry: No, no, he just made each. He's just not impressive.
I've met him he's not impressive. He didn't start
these kinds. Companies he was put in there by Sequoia Capital.
Roelof, Botha is the CEO another South African. It's the Cabal.
And you know, and his hair is fake news. I hate I hate to do
it, but it's just like. And he was really, really unattractive
and balding, and now he's just not balding and unattractive.
And it just doesn't seem smart. He just talk talk talks,
interestingly. Alright, the view had a scoop. She didn't come to
see them, of course, because she no longer flies. But I guess
Greta is back on the scene.
Unknown: In the last five years, Greta Thun Berg has gone from a
solo student activist to an international icon and the
movement to combat climate change. Now she and more than
100 experts are sounding yet another global warning on the
crisis in the climate book, which is right here joining us
from Sweden. Please welcome Greta Thun Berg.
Thank you for coming on the show. Congratulations on the
book, we should point out that it's been 60 degrees here in New
York this week in mid February, just saying
Adam Curry: just didn't we have like a an Arctic bomb? Oh, gosh.
Just Damn. Weather is not climate.
Unknown: I wonder how would you describe where we stand today in
terms of climate, the climate crisis? Are we better or worse
off than when you began striking five years ago?
Adam Curry: Now what would the answer be to this question?
John C Dvorak: In your worst self, of course,
Adam Curry: is that really all your full Ramsar? Is that the if
you're Greta, that's all you would say? We're just worse off?
John C Dvorak: How dare you say that very dare you.
Unknown: It depends on how you see it. If you see it. From one
perspective, the concentration, the level of co2 in the
atmosphere is higher now than it was before. We are seeing more
and more natural disasters, more people are displaced more people
are losing their lives and livelihoods due to the
consequences of the climate crisis. So in that,
Adam Curry: who's losing a job over the consequence of the
climate crisis.
John C Dvorak: craniums are displaced
Unknown: more people are losing their lives and livelihoods due
to the consequences of the climate crisis. So in that
sense, we are far worse off than we were before. But also we can
see that more and more people are starting to stand up and
speak up, speak out about these issues, and more people are
mobilizing so but it's going wait way too slow. So I would
say we're both better off and much worse off.
Adam Curry: It's better and worse. Wrong. My question would
be, what do you think of those stickers on? On gas tanks and
gas stations of you? What do you think of that question? No, no,
no, we can't do that. We have to bring in some culture and Greta.
I'm sorry. Go ahead.
John C Dvorak: I was gonna say if I was gonna ask her stuff. I
asked her if she was okay with all these private jets that fly
into these climate meetups.
Adam Curry: Well, she doesn't fly anymore. You see, so you
didn't fly out. But
John C Dvorak: is she okay with everybody else flying in and
it's private jets?
Adam Curry: Did I play the Bill Gates? answer to that question.
John C Dvorak: I don't think like the Jeffrey Epstein is dead
Adam Curry: known. Know about the private key of the BBC asked
gates that very question.
John C Dvorak: What do you say to the charge that if you are a
climate change campaigner, but you also travel around the world
and a private jet, you're a hypocrite? Well, I, I
Unknown: by the gold standard of funding climeworks to do direct
air capture that far exceeds my family's carbon footprint. And I
spend billions of dollars on on climate innovation. I'm so good.
So, you know, should I stay at home and not come to Kenya and
learn about farming and malaria? Anyway, I mean, I'm
uncomfortable with the idea that not only am I not part of the
problem by paying for the offsets, but also through the
billions that my Breakthrough Energy Group is spending that
I'm part of the
solution.
Adam Curry: I'm good, I'm virtuous, I spend money
John C Dvorak: i There should be a follow up question. And I
could have been the one to ask it. Even though everyone else
should have asked it. Bill. You used to refuse to fly in private
jets and only go commercial
Adam Curry: coach and you fly coach. That's right. I remember
they always
John C Dvorak: flew coach, in fact, and the thing of course,
the gimmick there was he flew coach, but he always got
upgraded by the airline, because he was so rich. So they always
move in the first class and I ran into him once on a flight
and I went in first class where he was and chatted with him for
a bit and I went back to coach afterwards, where you belong,
where I belong. Marriage. So, so he used to always do that he
refused to get a private jet until he married and Melinda is
the one who got him to
Adam Curry: No, no, I think once he was on that Epstein Lolita
Express, he's like, this is the ship.
John C Dvorak: I think that's what happened. I think he got on
the Epstein plane after he got married.
Adam Curry: I'm going to skip the credit because just not
interesting because now that Africa is I just need to play a
couple of Africa clips because Africa is so on deck. Now, we
are going to not not that we haven't been already but the EU,
China, United States, Russia, all positioning to rape Africa.
But we got to change a few things. First, here's Antonio
Contreras, who is the Secretary General of the United Nations.
Unknown: Well, after the opening of the African Union summit, the
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said that the African
countries are being denied much needed debt relief, he sought
reforms to the structures of international finance to better
serve the needs of developing countries.
Investing in Africa best ways to prosperity requires finance and
developing countries are repeatedly left in the lurch.
The global financial system routinely denies them depth
relief and concessional financing, while charging
extortionate interest rates. As a result, vital systems are
starved of investment from Elson education to green technology,
social protection and the creation of new sustainable
jobs.
Adam Curry: Now this is the thing we keep hearing is that we
need to change international finance. This is not being done
the right way. We've heard we need to change the leadership at
the World Bank because we need everyone to come together and
finance Africa for climate change. And they got their wish
it's not the
Unknown: business Kate moody Jones has sided with the news of
the precedence of the World Bank is stepping down.
Early Malpass will be leaving his post by the end of this
June. That's about a year before his five year term would have
expired. The reasons for his departure were not made clear
Adam Curry: and probably to spend more time with his family.
Malpass was appointed
Unknown: by the former US President Donald Trump in 2019.
He's overseeing the distribution of aid to developing countries
as well as war torn Ukraine, and just last week, an initial $1.8
billion for Turkey. He has the courted controversy. Last year,
he declined to say whether he believed human activity
contributed to climate change. He later said he had been
misunderstood. The World Bank has made the green transition
and fighting climate change a key pillar of its mandate.
Adam Curry: Okay, so there you go. We got rid of the problem
guy, we can now put everyone's money to work. And we now have a
clear signal. Whenever war is coming to a country, you first
get this report.
Unknown: The satellite based internet soon to be provided by
billionaire Elon Musk's high speed Satellite Internet venture
is expected to give students and teachers in Rwanda access to
educational resources and digital tools. The program is
expected to begin this February.
Adam Curry: Yeah, don't ever Elon Musk deploy Starling to a
country war is coming. Because that's the sales job. Once you
have it deployed, then you just flip the switch and sell it to
the military under what's it called? Defense link or
whatever. Yeah, same thing. Yeah, same thing. Only 100 times
as expensive. So Africa for and luckily Dave Ackerman is
scouring Africa news every single day. That because that's
the only news we'll get about it except that everyone has been to
different African countries. The Russians, the Chinese, we have
the Brits, everyone's everyone's going to Africa getting it all.
John C Dvorak: You're giving it up behind the scenes somewhere.
Adam Curry: What do you mean they're giving it up? Divi?
Divi? Divi? Oh, yeah, possible very possible. We say
John C Dvorak: well, if you join my climb, it lets you play this
whole clip of mine. NPR clip on DeSantis you have to look it up
because it's from a couple of shows ago DeSantis and climate
change
Adam Curry: after Santos came back into the picture. Got it.
Unknown: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has touted it
Adam Curry: was DeSantis we're doing it wrong. We said DeSantis
de Santos its DeSantis Florida
Unknown: Governor Ron DeSantis has touted a record amount of
spending to help his state prepare for the effects of
climate change. But his policy on that front is coming under
scrutiny by many residents still reeling from Hurricane Ian. Amy
green of W MFE and Orlando reports.
Jason Diaz awoke in the middle of the night to the sound of
trickling water.
When I stepped up. I was already ankle deep in water.
The next few hours were a blur of evacuating family members and
neighbors Whereas in swimming through five feet of water. A
few days later, Diaz sat near a noisy idling bus outside the
Kissimmee Civic Center, which had been turned into a shelter
for the displace like him. Virtually everything he owned
was swamped back at his apartment.
Massaro about losing my stuff is just that I had. And I might get
emotional. I had a collection of collectibles for my grandkids
that I've been collecting for 30 years. And that's all gone.
When Hurricane Ian hit Florida. It destroyed coastal communities
in southwest Florida, before causing widespread flooding
across the state's interior. The hurricane show is what states
like Florida faces climate change leads to more extreme
weather DeSantis has focused his climate change policy on
resilience. Under his leadership, the state has put
more than a billion dollars toward hardening infrastructure
against rising seas and more destructive storms. The governor
Republican faces reelection next month and is considered a
potential front runner for the GOP presidential nomination in
2024. During a stop in Daytona Beach, DeSantis said he's
noticed that newer infrastructures seem to fare
better against hurricane Ian, the stuff
that was new same with some of the homes you do see the impact
of that. And so I think we were right to to do things like we
have with the resilient coastline
DeSantis this program was signed into law in 2021, which means
it's unlikely to have had a big impact on infrastructure before
the hurricane. Environmental groups say the governor's
climate change. Okay.
Adam Curry: That was really pretty boring.
John C Dvorak: It was very boring. That's probably what
wasn't played.
Adam Curry: What was that actually about? Wait, he was
John C Dvorak: climatologist was going to be a good guy to vote
for
Adam Curry: was that MTD? told me it was?
John C Dvorak: No that was NPR? Goodness. Which makes no sense
if you think about it.
Adam Curry: Oh, that rule actually kind of hurt. Yeah. Did
you have something else before we? Here's I'll tell you what
we're gonna do. We have not even touched on Ohio. I know
everyone's so excited to talk about Ohio. So we'll have to
talk about Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, Ohio. Because that's all we can
talk about because it's the political gambit of the hour.
Abused by every every politician almost from the get go. And also
about Turkey a turkey ADA semana news we should talk about there
but before that, I'd like to say in the morning to you the man
who put the sea in the fraudulent claims of fraud
ladies and gentlemen, please say hello to my friend on the other
end Mr. John C. davara.
John C Dvorak: Morning to you Mr. Adam curiosity in the
morning all ships to see boots to the ground feet in the air,
substance and water and all the days and nights out in the
morning
Adam Curry: to the trolls over there in the troll room. We've
had a lot of trolls hanging out in the troll room and you can be
one if you want troll room.io You can log in right that you do
need an email address that actually works. Some trolls
thing to oh, I can circumvent this by doing a fake email
address. No, because you have to confirm that you're that you're
there. So we have so we can register trolls and track you
down and shoot you. So let's count
2294 I think that's a good number.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, you know, it's pretty standard for Sunday.
Adam Curry: Well, that's not bad. It's been worse, that's for
sure. trolls, TROLLS, you can also become a troll in the
following manner get a new app, a modern app that actually has
all these capabilities and we have a new website it used to be
new podcast apps.com still in play. Now we have podcast

their Apple Spotify podcast apps.com You can find many
modern podcast apps where you can actually get an alert go
straight into the troll room troll wrong here the live stream
and you get all your podcasts in there as well at pod bursts
podcast attic Casta curio caster all of these work perfectly.
Yeah, now let us Oh, of course we also have no agenda

social.com Jhansi Dvorak at no agenda social.com No digital
bill of rights over there. You do whatever you want, pretty
much just Don't piss me off because then you know, I can
kick you off if I feel like it. Or if John tells me to, which
happens a lot. John will say kick that guy off. Okay.
John C Dvorak: I'd like twice okay. All right in five years.
Adam Curry: Now, let us thank the artists. The no agenda
artists who are incredibly kind with their value they contribute
to the show every single show while we're doing it live they
are creating art. We will use one of these pieces will choose
it right after the show was done. We thank the artist for
episode 1530. We titled that one red queen Roger roundy had it it
just made us laugh. It had kind of it had a nice appeal to it
too. was the what are those flowers of those like? Those
yellow flowers?
John C Dvorak: This is a flower of some sort.
Adam Curry: Like a water lily of some sort. Yeah, it looked it
looks a bit like a lily. I'm sorry about your pipeline love
CIA and curry Dvorak separated by a little cartoonish bomb. It
somehow it struck the right chord with us.
John C Dvorak: It definitely made you laugh a lot. Yeah, I
Adam Curry: did. Well, I laugh. That's kind of what I'm looking
for. I'm always looking for a laugh that makes a cheap laugh.
Yes, that makes both of us. chuckle is even better. There
were a couple of ones in there that were that were pretty
cheap. Let's see. A lot has been added. I can see now. We
actually debated quite a while about the the aircraft with the
pins.
John C Dvorak: With the preamps I use it for the newsletter. I
saw that now. What was at issue with this? Well, for one thing,
it's not an F 22 Raptor. Yes, I believe that's an F 16. So that
Oh, Pa of epic proportions. Obviously. It's also clipart
which was fine. He's probably licenses, but it's been around a
little too much that clipart I've seen too often.
Adam Curry: Yeah, it was really good. We always do the Google
Image Search and but the
John C Dvorak: pins were dynamite. Yes. I mean, we could
have used it
Adam Curry: but we're just really afraid of comics or
Blogger giving a shit so he's gonna
John C Dvorak: go off. It's really fun is really so who
created the comic strip blogger had a really good piece, but we
both knew just by looking at that it was done by AI so
Adam Curry: automatically off the list. We thought the was
that Kareem Abdul Jabbar Top Gun by networks. Very funny. very
racist. We figured that wouldn't work. Oh, she had her. Which one
was this? She's the pilot. She's the Top Gun pilot. We knew that
we would be called up for racist. We just saw it like nah,
that's not gonna work.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that's no good.
Adam Curry: l Biden, which is kind of funny, but we don't like
del Biden. We don't like and the green el Biden.
John C Dvorak: Well, that's the comic strip blogger, one that
obviously can't draw. That's right. That's the one that we
hated because it's a and I liked the one next to it to this
sneaky Bearcat. But it's a little bit very obscure,
Adam Curry: very obscure, obscure. Then there was some
poker stuff. Some confusing stuff. What was this lien which
I still don't understand still talking about balloons.
Capitalist agenda had a red queen rising, I'd say semi
cheese cake. Which we like, but no one would understand it.
Everything seemed messy to me. I mean, it was
John C Dvorak: it was it wasn't a show with a lot of material
that would be amenable for Appspot art.
Adam Curry: So you're saying that we failed. We fell down? We
didn't have we didn't have a show that has good to topics? Or
good gags or good job?
John C Dvorak: Well, yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's
possible. It's possible.
Adam Curry: It's possible. But anyway, Roger roundy I think it
was very surprised himself. Oh, yeah.
John C Dvorak: No, his he's the pieces that when he's one. It's
never for his good art.
Adam Curry: Right. When he when he swing into swing out of his
cleats. It never happens. Just throw something out there. Yeah,
we'll go for that. Thank you very much Roger round and we
appreciate that. And the work of all of the artists who support
no agenda with value for value. We ask for your time, your
talent, your treasure. Go look at Gitmo, the Gitmo list.org You
see all of the things that people have put up websites,
including a no agenda show.net including no agenda meetups.com.
I mean, the only thing we've actually done ourselves is
DeVore act.org/na. And it's problematic. So and by the way,
it's changing out here getting the change in first quarter,
first quarter. Now we'd like to thank our producers we have
Yeah, let
John C Dvorak: me let me do the first one because the second
one's by special request. Okay. And can I just one here just

and she's in Hubbard, Oregon. She says right Since she even

John C Dvorak: Well, whatever it was, there was a good rap that
was done by a Joe Biden voice.
Adam Curry: Alright, and I just want to make sure we give props

the meetups? That's the meetup important that you heard the
meetups earlier. There's a lot of meetups going on. If you want
to be part of the community, you're listening to the show you
already are. But believe me, you go to one of these meetups, you
think you're weird. Everybody's weird. No one will be like, you
know, every single person is different, but somehow we all
fit together. These meetups are good. They're protection because
connection is protection. And you can find them at no agenda.
meetups.com If you can't find one near you start one yourself.
It's easy at a party with dicen de BombBomb you'd be triggered
is like, I got the ISOs. I know one of mine is dynamite. And one
of them has to hit one of them. I would hope. Do you have any? I
have to alright. What can you hear yours? First?
John C Dvorak: I have fraud.
Unknown: fraudulent claims of fraud.
Adam Curry: Okay, classic. And tool, a tool for lazy preachers.
Let's see. If you'd like one of mine.
Unknown: I'm obsessed with the show. Mm.
Adam Curry: Not bad. Not bad. Or
Unknown: sensational sensational. Or
John C Dvorak: that's got to be my favorite. Might be I can
understand what he said. That's
Adam Curry: the opener of Houston. True doe. That's how
they announced just all of that one. I like
John C Dvorak: I don't care for that one. I like the shoe. Both
of them in the second one I think is the is the winner.
Unknown: Sensational. Sensational. That one?
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Okay,
Adam Curry: I'll take it. So good. It's all good people. So
good. Oh, let me see. There was so before we
John C Dvorak: go into anything serious. Oh, please. I'm behind
in my tick tock catches. We need a jingle for this. So I got a
tic toc lady here, bitch. She's beside herself not knowing quite
what to do. And this is what she people like this, I guess obsess
all day about things like this? Because? I don't know. I don't
know. I have no idea why anyone was obsessed so much that
they're gonna put it out there for when a tick tock to listen
to it. This is tick tock, the gendered lady.
Unknown: So I was just picking up my vehicle from an oil
change. And the person came out of the garage and said, What can
I do for you, young lady? And I know that this was intended to
be a greeting of respect and kindness or politeness, maybe.
But I had this immediate like, okay, young, maybe
comparatively, I'll take it. But I was like, lady, what do I do
it that like, it's so complicated because I know this
person only intended kindness, there was a smile on their face.
Like I knew that they weren't trying to like patronize me or
gender me, but I felt so gendered and so inappropriately
gendered. And I don't know what to do with that, like, what do
you do with that when someone like has the best of intentions,
and I don't really want to spend all of my spoons trying to
educate someone at the Costco car center.
Adam Curry: Limit. So she was misgendered. No, she was just
gendered. She was gendered. She didn't want to be gendered at
all. Right? Oh, this is one of these. These. These are those
women. I've learned that from you. This is one of those women.
Who, who when you if you hold the door open like well, I could
John C Dvorak: do that nice now. Yeah, exactly. Same, same
person. And
Adam Curry: sounds like that to that I can do myself, thank out.
I'm like that she's a sweetheart. Here in the south.
We have right here in the south, we hold the door open for the
dames for a prime
John C Dvorak: mover who goes to cheer for him open the door in
the car. If
Adam Curry: a woman stands up at the table, I stand up. If she
comes back, I stand up. And this lady would read my Creek. I'm
nothing but a creep. That was very lighthearted. Thank you for
catching us up on the latest nut job, Marie. I did want to
mention, and now none of these are playable. But I put them up
put them in the show notes. There's now two, two Turkish
politicians. The most recent one is the head of the Ministry of
Interior interior of Turkey after the earthquake earthquake,
and this is what the head of the ministry said I have the
translation. There are no coincidences. And we told the
American ambassador that a week ago we did not agree with the
increase in the number of NATO members and a week later we had
a catastrophic earthquake. We know who did it and how get your
dirty paws off Turkey. We will draw our own conclusions. And
with that, several mentions of and this I think is true that
the turkey earthquake does not appear to have an epicenter
Which is interesting.
John C Dvorak: Well, even if it had an earthquake machine as
your you will contend, yes. Doesn't an earthquake have an
epicenter like the one in Japan had a very distinctive Epicenter
where the machine was?
Adam Curry: Right? No. The machine know that it was a bomb
that went off off the coast to start the tsunami. We all know
that that wasn't the earthquake machine. That was an underwater
explosion. I'm just trying to change history.
John C Dvorak: Should you try to change your own history? Yes.
Was a dairy a was a Darren Yes, the center there was the
earthquake.
Adam Curry: Yes, that's that's why it's weird that this one
didn't have an epicenter, but also ripped all like a huge, a
huge tear in the earth. And this is what the politicians are
saying. It's not me anymore. I'm not alone. They're saying it.
Meanwhile, what you didn't hear in the region because it also
had Syria although it was northwestern Syria. We seem to
be killing people all over the place. A leader of
Unknown: the ISIS terrorist network in Syria is dead. But at
the price of four wounded Americans
an explosion during the raid also resulted in four US troops
and one of the working dogs suffering some some injuries.
US Special Operations Forces went in by helicopter and
surrounded a nondescript house in northeastern Syria. But as
they closed in on their target, an explosion either a suicide
vest or a hand grenade went off,
that troops and working dog are in stable condition. It is a
constant
threat. In 2019 When commandos raided the Syrian compound of
ISIS leader, Abu Bakr al Baghdadi, backing up himself and
three children to avoid capture. Last year YB Rahim al Hashimi al
Quraishi, another leader of ISIS set off a booby trap that level
the third floor of his house, killing himself, his wife and
two children. This time the target was Hamza el hum Z. And
this time he apparently waited for the Americans to get close
enough he
was overseeing the group's deadly terrorist network in
eastern Syria before he was killed in the raid.
There are about 900 American troops in Syria, working with
local Syrian forces to keep the ISIS terrorist network from
staging a comeback. It's a deadly game of hide and seek.
But no American troops were killed or wounded in all of last
year.
Adam Curry: This is not in the news. It's really weird that we
just just killing people. And what is the threat there? What
it why why are we doing this? Any ideas? Bueller?
John C Dvorak: I don't even know that story.
Adam Curry: No, but this is brand new. This just came out.
But that's my point is this is kind of nuts. We're just killing
people everywhere.
John C Dvorak: So I've got two epicenters. For the first two
Turkish earthquakes.
Adam Curry: Yes, there was two. The second one was apparently
even worse.
John C Dvorak: Well, the first one was was in Giza and typ was
the epicenter and the second one was in scrolled it off but it
didn't second one has a definite center to this bullcrap there is
no epicenter. I'm just
Adam Curry: telling you what the politicians are saying.
John C Dvorak: Well those guys are they hate us.
Adam Curry: Well, yeah with good reason. We've been doing it
everywhere around the world. Take Fukushima you just said to
yourself that
John C Dvorak: you know they should take I have a Turkish
clip to show you how many buildings were destroyed. They
should take aim at their own politicians who didn't enforce
building codes which were I guess since they have so many
earthquakes there see what there's an earthquake machine or
not. They do have quite a lot.
Adam Curry: If you look at the list, but this is the biggest
wasn't up to 45,000 Dead they estimate
Unknown: but listen to this clip. Turkey's interior minister
said today that over 80,000 buildings and his name is the
same guy. The same the same guy Turkey's interior minister said
today that over 80,000 buildings in his nation were either
destroyed or have become uninhabitable after last week's
quake. The situation across the border in Syria is dire for the
millions left homeless, so many of whom already suffered greatly
through nearly 12 years of war, supplying shelter and aid is a
prime focus there now. But remarkably, people are still
being pulled from the rubble after a week and a half. That is
remarkable
John C Dvorak: especially always every time to set my there's
always some guidance there a month. Yeah, what we need living
on his fingernails and these are horrible.
Adam Curry: What we need is we need a rescue of a child you
know, the one that like that's that's been trapped for for
weeks and that's what the international because the press
is not aren't really doing much with a story. That's also weird.
I mean, it's such a, the scale of the devastation is outside of
the earthquake machine stuff. But the scale of the of the
devastation is is almost unimaginable. But there's just
nothing.
John C Dvorak: No, I do satellite pictures and some of
the other photos of the cracks are actually like, because they
go right through a highways. Yeah. And they divide the
highway by you know, it's not like 100 yards, but it's like
they're just it's not even in the same county. It was high
weekends is a big hole in the earth and the other highway is
way over there somewhere. It's quite, quite amazing.
Adam Curry: Let's stay in. Well, not quite the region, but in
sandy areas. The new trifecta is the new triple threat is Russia,
China, Iran. And looks like looks like we're up to our
tricks in Iran. De France. 24 had this, this this lady on. And
she, she I think she works she works for a university, but she
she's very distinct kind of look. You know, like French with
the big fro hair just, you know, very distinct. I would say she
might even be a spook but just listen to this report as as we
move into familiar territory to our spooks in Iran.
Unknown: I'm joined now on set by Chara maca Remi, from the
University of Montreal. Thank you for joining us here today.
You are an expert in Iran, and notably, a wrote the book about
the 1979 Iranian Revolution. spoke. I'd like to ask you,
first of all, losing its momentum a little bit. We've
heard less about it, certainly outside Iran in recent weeks.
It's it entered another phase actually what we heard about
were the insurrection all the insurrections of fall 22. So it
was the first stage and it was very vivid in the streets. And
it was breaking a lot of red lines, a lot of political
boundaries that were set for the last 40 years. That was very
impressive. And what we see now is an a political organization
of the Iranian society in order to kind of carry on another
phase of that confrontation with the state with political
demands. So we have seen leader, opposition leader like green
movement leader, Muse and Mousavi, who's in house arrest
for 13 years now. And he has written a letter saying that no
change is possible in Iran within the frame of the
theocracy. So he demands a regime change as well. And this
is the first time you know, this is very new, because for the
last 13 years, he hasn't done that. And 400 political figures
and civil society figures in Iran have signed a letter of
support to his letter. And we have also two days ago 20 unions
and organization within Iran who have signed a common letter, so
they have come to a common demand, asking for change, you
know, for separation of church and the state for equal pay for
women and men. So we're very much into the woman life with a
movement yet, for the release and conditional release of all
political prisoners. Many political prisoners have been
released, and when they were released a woman political
prisoner release, they photographed themselves outside
of the prison without the hijab. So it shows that we are released
but we are not going to, you know, stand aside, we are
pursuing the fight. So I think that it's changing forms.
Adam Curry: Regime Change bound deck, looks like Oh, my
John C Dvorak: DeSantis clip was bad. No, this was no this.
Adam Curry: Your DeSantis clip really sucked. This at least
shows this this is regime change
John C Dvorak: is some woman that lives in Montreal, she
doesn't know what's going on. She's a spook for Canada.
Adam Curry: Regime change on deck.
John C Dvorak: Okay, I'm saying no. Okay, I think this was just
another test like the Green Revolution or wherever that one
purple whatever remember the color that they tried what some
during the Obama administration This is another another shot at
it and already, yes, yeah. But it's over. Just
Adam Curry: know that. No, she said it's the next phase. Well,
John C Dvorak: you want to put, you gotta you gotta dead pull
money when?
Adam Curry: After they do their nuclear test.
John C Dvorak: Oh, if they do a new killer test that's coming
Adam Curry: up. They're not going to do it. Okay.
John C Dvorak: They do that that's a huge mistake.
Adam Curry: I'm going to stay in the sandy areas. This is part of
the great reset. This could be your country.
Unknown: They read bank burns, several dozen people in Lebanon
attacked banks on Thursday and blocked roads. They're
protesting against the informal restrictions on cash withdrawals
in place for your financial crisis that prevent Lebanese
from getting their hands on their own savings. The crisis
has slashed the value of the Lebanese pound by more than 98%
since 2018. protester Romic on door says everyone should be up
in arms
What's you Lebanese people waiting for to go down and take
your rights from this mafia of thieves that's ruling out
Armenian measure, man. Where are the human rights? There is no
electricity, no water, nothing at all in this country. Don't
they feel us while they're sitting in their palaces? They
have no feelings for the people while they see us a sheep. We
won't stay silent about our life's worth.
At least six banks were targeted as the currency hit a new record
low value on Thursday. That's according to depositors outcry,
a lobby representing people with money stuck in the banks,
depositors lacking cash to pay for basics. Food bills, even
health care are seeking access to their funds through lawsuits.
Or sometimes by force people trying to take out their own
money have staged holdups. pounders changing hands at
around 80,000 pounds to the dollar on Thursday, from 70,000
pounds just two days earlier.
Adam Curry: Do you value their money by 98%?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, so if you have $100,000 in the bank, it's
worth $2,000.
Adam Curry: You know, there's a guy named good. There's a guy
named saifuddien A moose who moved from Lebanon, he's now in
Austin. And and he he says he was so lucky, because he put
most of his money into Bitcoin. I mean, in this case, Bitcoin
would have fixed that. Which I think and which I think is
pretty brilliant.
John C Dvorak: He could have put it in American treasuries, too,
that would have saved his ass.
Adam Curry: Well, depends how long you had the Bitcoin
American treasuries? Probably.
John C Dvorak: What if you bought the Bitcoin at 60,000?
You still
Adam Curry: better better still have 30,000 leftover better than
2000? Yeah, I
John C Dvorak: was Anything's better than 2000. But American
treasuries would have always had made some money on the deal.
Adam Curry: Okay, well, I'm sure that's what everyone wanted to
do. I love people burning down the bank thinking their money's
actually in there. That's the funniest part. Yeah, we're
trying to hold
John C Dvorak: it out this old wives tale and money's in the
bank.
Adam Curry: Did you know that the US banks ever since COVID,
they don't have to have any they don't have to have 10% reserves.
There's zero reserve policy. Still, they never released that.
It's kind of scary.
John C Dvorak: But you can always get your money out of his
local banks. I know it mechanics. I've seen somebody
trying to get their money out. But they told me he had to fill
out some paperwork. Yeah, more than more than then you had to
wait 24 hours so they deliver the money. Why there's no money
there.
Adam Curry: I know this is the worst. And we have we have a
local bank here. Community Bank, which is great. And that's where
we keep our money. But all their services are outsourced to some
no tech firm. It's kind of wonder, kind of wonder how it
all works.
John C Dvorak: Doesn't this microservices architecture taken
to an extreme? Yeah,
Adam Curry: yeah, if you if you fuck up sue you screw up your
password. Now. You can't talk to him during the weekend.
John C Dvorak: No, you can't do this whole this was a nightmare.
Adam Curry: It is. It is. So there was big print of a big
deal about this Israeli firm. That apparently is
disinformation for hire for elections. You hear this story?
John C Dvorak: I like it.
Unknown: Next interference in over 30 elections worldwide. An
investigation by the Paris based group of journalists called the
forbidden stories has shone a spotlight on Team horror gay,
and the 50 year old Israeli driving these nefarious
activities more recently joins us in the studio. He's part of
the team of the business stories. Laura, thank you very
much for being with us. Who is the man who's allegedly behind
all of this tell us about him.
So officially, he only has a nickname Jorge. And he made a
lot of before during all the investigation to hide his real
name. But at the end of the of the investigation after with
with the work of 100 reporters, we we we finally find out who
was the guy and his name is Al Anon. And Turunen is is a former
Israeli soldier who is leading that he's very secret cell unit
in charge of producing this information for hire services.
So it's, it's a business that is kind of expensive. When the
people from our team from hydrophones and the IRS were
inferior Writing in an undercover investigation this
this company, he was asking them to pay 6 million euros to
influence an election in Africa 6
million who's paying that kind of money then where it's
the kind of people who might have 6 million to pay for that
might be state actors or be private companies as well. It
depends you can, there is a different level of services that
can they can provide you then during the infiltration, they
were able to show how, for instance, in Kenya, they were
able to hack the telegram account of three advisors of the
current president. And in real life, they were doing that. So
it's what is very concerning with our findings in this
investigation is how to kind of industry met each other the
industry with the cyber civilians on one hand, and on
the other hand, the industry of the influence.
Adam Curry: And what I find most interesting about this story, is
this group of journalists, the forbidden stories group, a Paris
based nonprofit that coordinates investigations with 150
reporters, more than 60 news organizations worldwide,
including the National The Washington Post, The Guardian,
and lamanda I don't know if what do you think that is this?
John C Dvorak: Well, what bothers me is the Washington
Post, yes. And the Guardian, Guardian, off the bat right off
the bat right off the top. And Lemond I think is a left leaning
operation too. So I'm not impressed by that. I don't like
this. This is not this partisan approach to news covering. Yeah,
Adam Curry: we're on to the shard that's the guy Oh, he's an
award winning investigative journalist, documentary
filmmaker, founder forbidden stories. Anyway, today, they did
a whole like a kind of almost like a Project Veritas
undercover video. I wonder good. I gotta wonder if that guy
actually did anything. Or if this was more sales job for him.
Clearly, he's not being arrested or anything. He's not being perp
walked anywhere. So how, how good was it? You know what I
mean? Yeah. Do you have anything on Ohio because everyone's all
John C Dvorak: Ohio because I didn't see anything that was
new.
Adam Curry: The main thing I need to discuss with you is this
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, to hate him.
Adam Curry: Tell me that guy isn't a dead ringer for George
Burns.
John C Dvorak: George Burns.
Adam Curry: Yeah. The comedian.
John C Dvorak: I don't see the I didn't see the George Burns had
to look at his picture. Go to the wiki PD. has had huge ears.
It's always funny smile on his face. Look at the wine. Look
into wine. I'm gonna look I'm gonna look at the wine and see
if there's
Adam Curry: a young George bird. He's got pretty big ears. He got
some saucers. There.
John C Dvorak: Is a Mike DeWine. Mike, Mike, Mike D wine.
Adam Curry: I mean, he looks he looks more like George Burns in
the in the videos.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, yeah, I see it. Okay. So is it a straight
shot that makes it look a versus sideview? No. Is it just a
straight up shot? With his smiling? It looks like George
Burns.
Adam Curry: So what I love most about and we got a lot of boots
on the ground, people nearby people saying mom seems like
there's a lot of stuff being exaggerated. Certainly a lot of
people say, oh, yeah, I got dead. Everything around here did
not really a lot of evidence.
John C Dvorak: So it's not a lot of coverage to begin with. So
I'm sure the only exaggerated subsequently time where you can
get any news.
Adam Curry: What I find kind of this whole thing was, as far as
I'm concerned was a political football from the get go. And
you know, now, Trump is like, I'm gonna go see the people over
there, which is the political move he's running for probably.
Yeah,
John C Dvorak: I think it's foolish. I think it's dumb. I
think. I agree. I think that's like the anchors of NBC, CBS and
you know, go into some place. What do they need to be there
for? They're just getting in the way. Yeah. And then we had this
little situation with Tucker. So there's something going on in
one of the Kentucky churches are assumed.
Adam Curry: Hold on, why don't just stay with Ohio for a
second? Yes. Running right by right by it. I have a couple
things to discuss. Okay. Just want to give you all the
conspiracy theories. This is a town of 4700 people. So it turns
out that perhaps they wanted to put a high speed rail through
this very town. That's one it's all Trump's fault, according to
Buddha judge, so there's always Trump's there's your political
edge. The people of East Palestinian and why is it
Palestinian and not Palestine? Even though you spell it the
same way?
John C Dvorak: This way, they pronounced it there's like
there's a couple of towns around here. They're pronounced not
like they're written. Okay?
Adam Curry: It's like Rodeo Drive. because you're gonna get
exam there'll be Rodeo Drive. Okay. Looks like the people of
East Palo Steen were put into a medical test. A What do you call
it? The rolling out medical device sensors. And they were
the test market. It's always good one. See if you see if you
ingested something or if you become sick somehow, yeah, the
my ID medical service. There you go. I liked the Amtrak 2035 map
the best because that that shows Amtrak with high speed rail
going straight through this town. So of course, we had to
blow it all up. And then but in general, I sent you an article.
I know you don't like where it came from. But it seems like the
actual contamination of the environment may that may be a
bit overblown, because that that's the part that I'm just
questioning. It's not great to have this happen. But it does
happen a lot with these types of all kinds of chemicals. The year
the chemical experts. So what is your what is your view on the
vinyl chloride? How much is it parts per million is in there?
What do you think is the actual risk to the residence?
John C Dvorak: I wouldn't live there with that big mushroom
cloud and all that vinyl chloride dust stuff is nasty. So
those guys can downplay that if they want, but just look at it.
Just look at it. What a mess is that?
Adam Curry: Is that clouds still there?
John C Dvorak: Now the clouds gone. But the messes leftovers
ridiculous. And, and it just had to be a lot. They put it in a
bunch of ditches and lit it off. It was seeping into the ground.
It's terrible. I wouldn't downplay that mess by anybody
because Oh, it's bullshit. It's only vinyl chloride. So what is
not in? I'm not listening to that. Okay.
Adam Curry: Which is why I asked you. So I think it's just at
this point, just a political football. No one really cares
about the people. That's obvious. And the reason why no
one sprang into action is because it happens three times a
day. This stuff happens all the time. We do have a night with
tanks of vinyl chloride, it doesn't know but derailments
happen, and yeah, there's over 1000 a year. So the one one
email from boots on the ground from one of our producers, who
has standing he says you know, all mainline tracks have hotbox
detectors HDDs in track safety device to checks X axle wheel
temperatures, says I've never been to Ohio, but I did check
everything and it seems like they have a HBD about 20 miles
from the crash site near Salem, Ohio. The train should have had
his temperature checked and received a hot wheel alarm and
what he's questioning is kind of where we started with it. This
seems to be just a railroad failure. You know, not enough
people on these trains actually want to do away with cabooses
you've been following this they want to get rid of cabooses
John C Dvorak: gonna get rid of nearly I haven't seen a caboose
in 25 years and I'm right by a rail
Adam Curry: than what I owned the wires I'm gonna be more than
making a big deal of that it's all political everything. And
then all of these cars have Popoff valves. And our expert
boots on the ground says yeah, vinyl chloride is deadly. I said
but the five different choices they could have made on how to
handle this. They kind of took the worst one the one you want
to try first is try and keep the keep the tanks cool and make and
hope that the pop off valves work because then they wouldn't
have had to blow it up. So the blowing up thing is, is kind of
the red flag here.
John C Dvorak: Well, we had to clip from the last show of the
hazmat guy saying that they were keeping that they were keeping
him cool with the hoses and they just kept doing that and they
did do that and then they pulled the hoses off to blown up
Adam Curry: so here's a quick boots on the ground. I live five
miles out from ground zero just want to give you boots on the
ground what's happening here. Nothing accurate has come out
since since it since it started Norfolk got their train track
fixed left town claiming threats on life on their life was made
that's why they didn't show up for the town hall. Unofficially
The reason the emergency order was lifted before testing was
that the trains couldn't pass through town well there was a
state of emergency still effect from what I see there isn't much
as much depth as reported. For one the chickens the dead
chickens are about 15 miles away from the crash while mine in the
same path five miles away or happy as can be and if you saw
how scratched up the woman making the claim was you believe
the local law that she is definitely shocked though that
she definitely chalked to those 14 Chalk was shocking the
chickens
Unknown: no joke.
Adam Curry: No it says chocked no dogs no dogs have died as of
yet no caps and there should be in there should be due to a very
bad feral cat issue in town possibly three cage Fox says the
fish were minnows, the stream that came from 1015 foot wide,
never deeper. So he's kind of downplaying all the disaster.
But yeah, I'm sure producer Joe, you know, like you doesn't
really want to be in that situation. And everything else.
I mean, this this conspiracy theories about the 5 million
gallons of water a day that the Intel fab apparently nearby
needs. Have you heard of this? I mean, this
John C Dvorak: is no, this is completely news to me.
Adam Curry: Yeah. So this, you know that they need to bypass
the Ohio River and cut these people off. I guess we'll just
see what plays out. There's enough conspiracy theories. But
to me, everything here now is just political. And Trump, is
it? I agree. I think he's making a bad move. Bad move going
there. You should have just gone there. Just popped up that would
have made sense. Pre announcing it wrong. Right. Great.
John C Dvorak: No, I think I think if he had just showed up
like a couple of days ago, yeah. Just showed up and with a team
of investigators saying, you know, nobody seems to be doing
this properly. I've got some my own people, and then left. Yeah,
I think that we've been kind of cool, but no. Anyway, bye bye.
He's not he's losing it.
Adam Curry: I wish there was some really good information.
There really isn't? Really isn't yet, but a lot of a lot of talk,
you know, just a lot of talk, which is probably why you and I
just, there's not a lot to deconstruct. There's no media
really the media attention. And whenever Erin Brockovich shows
up, I'm always suspicious.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that you mentioned that and I agree with
that doesn't mean somebody like that shows up. I'd get
suspicious too. Now, I only have maybe one clip left. Okay, let's
do that. But I had to do this a number of them. I mean, I could
do the NFL Vax news, which I thought was interesting, but I'm
not completely in on it. Oakland has a ransomware attack going
on, which is funny is still continuing to city.
Adam Curry: City of Oakland.
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Okay. All right. But it's it's not that
entertaining. I think that I think the I also have some
follow up on that chatbot stuff, which I didn't realize that that
that rousse guy you were talking about Kevin Roose? Yeah. Oh my
god. Well, how lame can you get I told you when I know I heard
it. And then I heard this other report. And I said, Wait, I
mean, you could have pounded that home harder. Knew Oh, yeah,
here we go. Here's a double of the new overdose drug found in
San Francisco. Just listen to these numbers.
Adam Curry: Uplifting way to leave the show
Unknown: in San Francisco. Authorities say traces of a
deadly drug called xylazine as being found in the bodies of
people who died from an overdose. The street name for
the drug is tranq. It's an animal tranquilizer being added
to illicit street opioids, mainly fentanyl. The
tranquilizer is known to cause severe skin lesions. It can
leave users with open wounds lead to infections and even
amputations. trace amounts of it were found in four out of 145
bodies tested between December 1 of last year and the middle of
last month. All of the overdoses involve fentanyl. San Francisco
Health officials say it's the first time the drug has been
identified and overdose deaths in the city.
John C Dvorak: Wow. So 140 Plus deaths in 90 days is what he
described. He didn't put the second half of that in there. So
that's I'm a dead there's not 40 dead bodies laying around San
Francisco just constantly because of this fentanyl
situation. They don't care. They don't do anything about the
about Fentanyl crisis in the city free needles. It's pathetic
now we got this. I think they're trying to kill the homeless.
Adam Curry: Well, on that tip, I had this in the show notes for
last show middle X. You've not heard of this middle x. This is
now being it's according to exit International. Oh, yeah. There's
a group called Exit International which is basically
about killing yourself. Euthanasia. And so they've this
is quite big story in the Netherlands. And they have they
were eyewitnesses to people committing euthanasia with
middle X. Which is that now that won't publish what it is. But
they're saying In fact, there's a Wikipedia page here. Mid D E.
L. It's it's something that comes from the chemical
industry. And people are using it to kill themselves. And it's
but no one knows exactly what it is the newspapers are trying to
figure it out or that or they're not publishing it because they
don't want more people to use it. This is and it's and even
though middle X is Dutch because it means middle means a compound
I guess or the something yeah compound. They're not translated
just calling it middle X. And apparently you you're all your
cells just stop accepting oxygen and you just shut down and die.
Yeah. And seems like there's a promotion of this going on.
John C Dvorak: Like a promotion.
Adam Curry: I don't like it. I'm that upbeat note with Big Pharma
killing us because they are. We're gonna leave you with a
couple of endless show mixes. We got some good ones we got bring
she brain data here. We got I am Robert zone Nikki. We got Tom

what you hear on your TV. Now, I should tell you, I might lie to
you. I could be wrong. You are convinced. I am chatbot
This is disgust a lot of people in here who have absolutely no
reason to be lying. You know Ron lots of assurances but residents
there just don't seem to trust what they're being told how it's
gone into hundreds and hundreds of people's houses to touch that
air. It's good.
Getting any numbers about are you even testing for benzene?
What are the levels that are not a section
of sulfur Ron, that is very near the crash site remains severely
contaminated. We knew this. We know this if the fire went out
and UK air monitoring has not detected any levels of health
concern in the community that aren't attributed to the due to
the training derailed. We continue to monitor the air. The
air is good. The governor
said again today that the water is safe to drink even though
some people have been questioning the test results.
Are you confident enough sir that you yourself would drink
it?
Absolutely. If I was there right now I would drink it. Would you
say here? Would you drink that water? The water we have tested
comes back. Good.
It has been two weeks since a train derailed and caught fire
in East Palestine tonight. Residents there say they are
really worried about the aftermath of the chemicals that
spilled and were released
as of today. Based on the facts that are there today. FEMA can't
do anything.
The giant Chinese balloon that had been floating across parts
of the United States has been shut down by an American fighter
jet.
Asked about the catch of the day. It's the Chinese spy
balloon failed by the US Navy.
We are just getting pictures of the Chinese spy balloons shot
down off the coast of China. Carolina the Pentagon
is revealing new information tonight about the spy balloon I
believe to be part of an extensive Chinese surveillance
operation
Pentagon believes
another Chinese surveillance balloon is now flying over the
US
balling. To tell the people of Montana we couldn't have shot it
down over Montana Republican Congressman Mike Gallagher says
it should have been shot down before it reached the US I gave
you order to take down these three objects debris from the
shoot down lies scattered across seven miles
making get more information through the debris that they are
recovering right now.
I make no apologies for taking down that.
It's the first time an aircraft has been shut down over US
territory since World War Two.
Committees are reporting to me daily and will continue to
urgent efforts to do so and I'll communicate that to the
Congress. Hundreds on the ground watch the Top Gun drama unfold.
Nothing right now suggests they're related to China's spy
billing program, or whatever surveillance vehicles from any
other country
Hey, it's Dr. Tony Fauci. Yeah minor hate I'm getting into

is the worst thing you could do. Okay, so I said a couple of
