Adam Curry: Adam curry Jhansi Devorah Thursday April 27 2023.
This is your award winning combination media assassination
episode 15.
Unknown: This is no agenda, bringing you the best
Adam Curry: clips of the day and broadcasting live almost from
the heart of the Texas hill country here in Siena region
number six in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry,
John C Dvorak: and from Northern Silicon Valley. I'm John C.
Dvorak. Buzzkill.
Adam Curry: Here we are everybody. It is Thursday. It is
kind of almost live. Not quite. I used Yes. I'm recovering.
John C Dvorak: Yes, you are.
Adam Curry: Yes, some, some swelling may occur. I've been
promised. This whole thing was not anything like the brochure.
And just want you to know, the brochure. Brochure brochure had
me going in whistling Oh, okay. I'm gonna have this procedure.
Everything's good. And you know, like three days later, I have
beautiful teeth.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, yeah. That's what it looks like in the
brochure. Yeah. So.
Adam Curry: Yes, exactly. So I would say about probably around
Christmas, everything, everything will be fine.
Everything will be just fine. So today, we have a special
episode, which we have to do from time to time, especially as
we get older, and things start to fall apart. I don't think
you've ever skipped a show for anything. health related, have
you? No, that's
John C Dvorak: not yet. Knock on wood. But here's the wood.
Adam Curry: I don't think you've ever had that.
John C Dvorak: I mean, no, no, I
Adam Curry: haven't. Neither of us have ever been sick for
anything. We've not really called up for being sick. I
still my throat is still completely shot from I don't
know what that was. So we always just keep going and stuff
anyway, doesn't matter. We have a great show lined up for you
today. Gustavo Araya, who's one of our producers who believe it
or not, I bumped into him in Nashville. He says, Hey, man, I
know you're going in for your thing. Do you remember I sent
you? Oh, man, you're the guy. So yeah, he made a best of clips of
the day never meet these guys. I know ever. I mean, I don't think
I've never had Paul couture. I've never met I've never met
anybody really. We never get out of the house. So he's apparently
I don't know. I don't know if he's from Nashville or not if he
drove people driving from Indiana, or coming from
Mississippi all over the place. So he said, You know, I he went
back, I think he went back five years. I said, How did you do
that? He said, Well, I just at a certain point, four or five
years ago just started. Joey started five years ago. Yeah, he
started. So it's like a labor of love. Yes. annotating clips.
Yes. Wait isn't like I mean, how did you ever find all these
clips for the day? Did you look for the jingles you look for
waveforms now? As I was listening to just start writing
down time codes and kept so for years, he's kept these time
codes. Of course. When did we actually start Clip of the Day?
Do you remember that?
John C Dvorak: At least a decade ago? No that far? Yes. It's a
long at least a decade ago.
Adam Curry: Let me see Clip of the Day. Let me take a look at
our original date. Oh, you're right. 2011 is the first exam
the first copy of the force original I have of the Clip of
the Day jingle. Wow. 2011
John C Dvorak: I think I was just throwing out too casual.
That's a clip of the day or something that somebody came up
with the jingle. And once you was codified, which I guess was
in 2011 as somebody with a jingle then we had dealt with
then we started giving each other Clip of the Day awards.
Adam Curry: I don't even remember who did Clip of the
Day. How about how bad is that? Who did that jingle? I have no
idea. I wonder if there's any
John C Dvorak: beyond on the file. It doesn't say
Adam Curry: on the file. I'm looking at it right now. Let me
see info. No properties. There we go. Nope. Nope,
John C Dvorak: doesn't say well just played for old times sake.
Now
Adam Curry: of course I played for all time say como second.
This is the Clip of the Day jingle clip
John C Dvorak: and then something that's a pro that
Adam Curry: did that. And there's something that came
later was the borderline. Yeah, do you even know what that
borderline is from? No, that's Madonna. She Madonna had a song
called borderline.
John C Dvorak: Dropped it until it's funny. We just dropped it
right. We sampled it. Yes. Exactly what somebody did
Adam Curry: for over a decade we've been using Madonna who
knew anyway, he's done a yeoman's job. He has put
together this. I mean, very extensive. I reordered a couple
of things that just you know, put it put things in different
order to make it a little snappier at the beginning.
Because he ain't me. And we actually have quite the
conversation sometimes about Clip of the Day.
John C Dvorak: Oh, all right, well, I let it rip. Here we
Adam Curry: go the best of the clips of the day have no agenda.
And Bernie Sanders, he's completely nuts. My question is
to you, if I'm if, if I'm your son, what advice would you give
me? Just so remember, this is about what you know, advice. So
just what Bernie Sanders thinks of law enforcement in America,
the next time I'll be pulled over by a police officer.
Unknown: Next time be fully pulled over by a police officer,
I would do my best to identify who that police officer is in a
polite way, ask him or her for their name. I would respect what
they are doing. So that you don't get shot in the back of
the head. Also, be very mindful of the fact that as a nation, we
have got to hold police officers accountable for the actions that
they commit. And that is so to answer your question, I would be
very cautious, if you will, my son, in terms of dealing with a
police officer, but I also defend my rights and know my
rights. And make sure if possible that police officers
camera is on what goes on.
Adam Curry: A tepid round of applause for Bernie on that one.
So basically, hey, you know, whatever you do careful because
these guys that shoot you in the back of the head. This is not
okay. This is crazy talk. And by the way, who's protecting you
Bernie when you're roaming around, do you have any kind of
security detail? Are they related to police? And do they
have guns? have guns? Be careful, he gets shot in the
back of the head?
John C Dvorak: Unbelievable. And that's a good that's a
borderline Clip of the Day. That one? That's a beauty.
Adam Curry: Yeah, well, I I'm sad, I have to take it because
it's so disgusting.
John C Dvorak: So douchey shoot in the back of their head, super
douchey.
Adam Curry: Hit it. I have a clip here, which we'll just dump
out of home we're done with this was a call in show on w h EUR
96.3. This is Howard University radio, college radio, but not a
small station, Dr. Greg Carr. He's the chair of the Afro
American Studies for Howard University. And well Listen to
this exchange. Let me see if I can get it. Thanks for calling
what's
Unknown: on your mind? Thank you for having me. Good evening to
you all. So Dr. Carr, good evening. I was calling today
actually, because I am actually a one of the people that is a
part of the ADOS movement, the American descendants of slavery
movement. And I actually engaged with you actually on Twitter,
Mr. Carr, I actually wanted to make a couple of things clear,
actually, the conversation for us, at least on Twitter or with
I think a large portion of black America, I'm not saying all has
nothing to do with Kamala Harris being black. It really doesn't.
most black people don't even care about that. What we're
talking about is lineage and ethnicity. That's what we're
talking about. And if your family comes routed out of
Jamaica, all of your content, your grandparents can't be
African American. It's very simple. Now, when I say African
American, I mean a descendant of us chattel slavery, I don't mean
a second generation person whose parents were native born
African. Okay. So that's kind of the issue. The other issue that
we're dealing with is is that black America has learned from
the Obama administration, I would have to agree with you,
Mr. Carr here that Obama is not the greatest president at all.
And if you look at his policies, he actually took away more from
HBCU funding than George Bush did, which most black people
don't know. But we've been largely in a political group.
What ADOS doing is bringing awareness and trying to instill
a political education or awareness in the African
American community that largely lacks this has this policy do
not support black people. That's the problem. Not only does her
record not to poor black people, but black people have been
telling every candidate we want a Black Agenda. Either the two
black candidates have one. So that would be something that
black people should be looking at. They supposedly these are
black candidates, supposedly African American, Mr. Booker is
for sure. But these people don't actually have anything for black
people. What they have is to share for everyone else. But h
one v one was which my parents actually support for Indians,
which is an Indian first because that's the laser. Okay. And
secondly, also the immigration policy. So that was
Adam Curry: pretty funny. HMB one, of course, she wants to do
that as for our own people, for the Indians that she's having
the
Unknown: author behind, do not service the black community. The
actual data. Oh, hold on.
Hold on for a second there. Go ahead Dr. Carr. Say that rather
Derek and I hope you hang on for a few minutes that this is this
is the kind of weaponized ignorance that Aidan this
hashtag is promoting. There is no
Adam Curry: there you have it weaponized ignorance and he's
going against this he said so he this college just laid out
everything
John C Dvorak: that is Clip of the Day for me but well, let's
Adam Curry: bring it on clip he actually says it two more times.
Want to hear a little
John C Dvorak: more so this guy Dr. Carr who is an apologist I
guess her someone or something and the Democrats he's just a
Democrat. And so he's just gonna He's not putting up with any
this was a lot of black Democrats. A black sheep lot
more white than black. A lot of Democrats period, do not want to
see anyone who's black get out of line. Don't get not aligned
Adam Curry: exactly up it up pretty well listen to it. Listen
to another 30 seconds. You know,
Unknown: you don't speak for anyone other than yourself. I
hope you don't embrace the extreme xenophobia of Antonio
more, or Yvette Cornell Lisa Antonio
Adam Curry: Moore is the guy we played. Who does YouTube from
his car. Yeah, it's extreme xenophobia. i Sorry, I'm not
hearing it. Dr. Carr, the
Unknown: broadcast on YouTube in some of these other venues? I'm
not sure if you understand. I mean, you know, just so we very
clearly say we have the data. So you're talking about Sandy
Daredi, my colleague, Sandy Daredi, had it do none of this.
And I'm sure you've also read the platform's of all the
candidates with Democratic nomination nursing the debates,
for example, their positions on appointments to the federal
bench, the Trump administration has appointed about a fifth of
the federal bench in the last two years. These are the judges
that will decide our fate, the fate of the people who claim to
be speaking for the majority of black people. And not only is it
incredibly short sighted and deeply under informed, it's
really weaponized ignorance to talk about anything from
reparations to immigration visas, as you know, these are
the single issues facing the black community. And dear God,
with all due respect, brother, I think anyone listening to what
you've laid out of the last 60 to 90 seconds, can come away
very clear about one thing. This is not an informed political
opinions. And as far as this who is black and who is not black, I
would encourage you to study not only long history of reparations
movement, but the history of African solidarity movements,
Adam Curry: and on and on, I'll put it in the show notes. The
whole thing is kind of interesting to listen to. There
it is. Shut up. Shut up. You're ignorant.
John C Dvorak: And you get in line and you're with
Adam Curry: the two old white guys over here, they see what's
going on. We hear it.
John C Dvorak: So that guy that a das guy called in is D knows
what's going on to you. He's not gonna put up in his bull crap.
Adam Curry: Thank goodness. Let's talk briefly about the
Fourth of July, which was America's celebration,
John C Dvorak: which was a real dud. Let's
Adam Curry: let's start with the the compilation just before the
celebration from the M five M who were pontificating about
what they expected it to be No, sorry.
John C Dvorak: Did you know that it took $2 million away from
some from the National Parks? Yes. basters
Unknown: Donald Trump has hijacked the nation's previously
nonpartisan Fourth of July celebration. Is this
just you them defying or is there anything dangerous about
it's just obscene and the speech
is going to be dreadful, they're going to have their Confederate
flags flying and their license plates and all kinds of
troublemaking
criticism of his critics, you will hear a celebration of self
there'll be
a lot of other people are gonna meet like a storm, and you're
gonna have a real conflict. There's all kinds of
catastrophes. They're not sure if the bridges over the Potomac
can handle the tanks.
He's pretty a traditionally nonpartisan event into a Trump
focus campaign style rally sure
looks like a partisan reelection rally on public space.
Donald Trump's campaign rally in Washington paid for by the
American taxpayer
a campaign event
some kind of a campaign speech, a political rally partisan event
combination Trump rally and Kim Jong on style military parade.
The President's vision bares a closer resemblance to the chest
thumping displays put on by authoritarian regimes.
This is the kind of military display that we were used to
seeing from the Soviet Union.
I'm thinking Red Square,
North Korea, Egypt to hope for violence would be of course
treasonous. Not to expect it would be naive.
Adam Curry: Oh, they were also disappointed.
John C Dvorak: These people are bad troll by the way. I'm gonna
give you a borderline Buganda. where you got that you still you
didn't put it together dynamite compilation.
Adam Curry: Now, from a production television production
standpoint, what a piece of shit show?
John C Dvorak: Well, so this is 9092, which is 27 years ago. And
then they also has some mentioned that they tried to
make it sound like it was yesterday and Trump's is Powell
even though Trump has said he hasn't talked to him for 15
years, they can't find any evidence that he's even talked
about him even just in any way since 2002, which is 17 years
ago. So they're just trying now. Oh, god, there's got to be some
way you can end that you heard on Congress that the woman on
the floor of Congress, this woman, Bonnie Watson go on and
on about Trump being a pedophile, which was, you know,
the chair goes out. Don't do that again.
Adam Curry: It's not a problem. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: So let's go with Epstein at party NBC.
Unknown: DS Mar a Lago was Trump's South Florida party
Palace, one frequented by Jeffrey Epstein, who was facing
charges for sex trafficking. He has pleaded not guilty. The
president says his relationship with Epstein was no different
than anyone else in their elite circle. Well, I
knew him like everybody in Palm Beach knew him. He was a fixture
in Palm Beach. I don't think I've spoken to him for 15 years.
I wasn't a fan.
Yet a tape in the NBC archives of a Mar Lago party shows Trump
giving Epstein his personal attention. The footage shot in
November of 1992 before Trump opened the resort as a club
shows the future presidents surrounded by cheerleaders for
the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins capturing Trump's fun
loving bachelor lifestyle. For an appearance on faith Daniels
NBC talk show we're gonna get great ratings in your show.
Trump is surrounded by women as music players in the background.
After a while, Trump goes to greet three new guests, among
them, the financier Jeffrey Epstein, more than a decade
before his guilty plea on state prostitution charges. Later in
the footage, Trump has seen talking to Epstein and another
man, as women are dancing in front of them. Trump alternates
between dancing and pointing out women to Epstein and the other
man and telling Epstein about the cameras. Though exactly what
they say is difficult to understand as they discuss the
women and their appearances.
Adam Curry: I'm sorry, just quick stop. I saw the video.
It's not clear. He's pointing out women in their appearances.
It's
John C Dvorak: not clear he's talking to anybody about their
appearance. Right? You're right. This is bull crap. Oops, sorry.
And let's talk mentioned something else. This was this
was a staged a staged event
Adam Curry: for a television show. Yeah, well you talk to
someone to make it look like you're busy.
John C Dvorak: They brought in these people there doesn't mean
he knows any of them. This was a staged by NBC for one of their
talk shows. So NBC could have invited the cheerleaders in and
and another thing they could do and they probably did because
they're filming it directing it. Okay, talk to this guy. Talk
make it look like you're talking to him. Shake his shake his
hand. Okay, no, no, no, go over there. Go over there. Now go
over that now dance. Can we get John John the girl let's
Adam Curry: just take another analogy from NBC, which they do
to this day. When that news program is over. What do you do?
You take your papers and you go, Okay, I'm shuffling their empty
shuffling my papers and I'm pretending to talk to my co
host. Well, that was a book. I was not really right. It is
totally done for the camera
John C Dvorak: gauged bullcrapping Yes, NBC did it.
And then now they're exposing it
Unknown: is difficult to understand as they discussed the
women and their appearances. Trump gestures to one and
appears to say to Epstein, look at her back there. She's hot.
And then Trump says something else into Epstein's ear. That
makes him double over with laughter. But as the President
says now, he never liked Epstein.
I was not a fan of his that I can tell you. I was not a fan of
his
Adam Curry: Wow, you get a borderline for that one. Wasn't
full borderline because I'd seen most of this reporting but I
hadn't seen this particular report. He appears to say
something and he's here. Like God, I got a six year old.
John C Dvorak: I got a six year old Jeff is over. Look at these
NBC doofus is with the camera. They're recording everything we
do. They're so stupid as
Adam Curry: probably what's it's called B roll people
John C Dvorak: that have been hearing these these these kinds
of stories like this where you talk about one thing and somehow
get it into another topic we make the transition to one or
the other example that is this one. UK climate change
transitions to Jew hatred Nice. So why
Unknown: did the all party environment mental committee
accused the government of coasting on climate change?
Adam Curry: Can I Can I just wager something here? Does it go
from denial from climate denial to Holocaust denial? Oh, it's a
different kind of trends. Oh, okay. Well, Pay Attention
everybody. So
Unknown: why did the old party environment mental committee
accused the government of coasting on climate change.
The government has a fine record on climate change, including our
recent net on net zero emissions.
But then the Prime Minister changed tack this morning. More
than 60 Labour members of the Lord's put their names to an
advert in The Guardian newspaper. They accused Jeremy
Corbyn of failing to tackle anti semitism, and said he'd allowed
a toxic culture to grow in the Labour Party. Before the
Right Honourable gentleman stands up and parades himself as
the champion of climate change or the champion of the people,
or the defender of equality and fairness. He needs to apologize
for his failure to deal with racism in the Labour Party.
Theresa May produced a copy of the advert and began to read
from it.
The Labour Party welcomes everyone it seems
Adam Curry: this is great. That was quick. It she just went from
you know what? You hate Jews too. That was literally what she
did. This is great. Let's there's
Unknown: been other people or the defender of equality and
fairness he needs to apologize for his failure to deal with
racism in the Labour Party.
Theresa May produced a copy of the advert and began to read
from it.
The Labour Party welcomes everyone except it seems this is
your legacy. Mr. Corbyn still haven't opened your eyes, you
still haven't told the whole truth. You still haven't
accepted your responsibility. You have failed the test of
leadership. Apologize now.
The Labour Party had been the first to introduce anti racist
legislation.
This party totally opposes racism in any form whatsoever.
anti semitism has no place in our society, no place in any of
our parties, or no pace place in any dialogue.
Adam Curry: shapeshifting unbelievable. Truly well. I
mean, that's, that's I mean, I've seen the newspapers talk
about a little bit in the UK and people. But I mean, just for
Theresa May to jump out like that. That was that was
John C Dvorak: out of the blue, because they're talking about
climate change that that was just lame. But it was funny. And
you see, I saw it you see comedy bits about there's one thing I
remember from years ago and an old show called Fridays. We're
actually Larry David was playing a character and he comes in and
there he comes in as a substitute lawyer. And then he
says something. So he comes in as a substitute lawyer and has
some case about about whatever the case was. He goes up and the
first thing he does is he accuses the witness of being a
lesbian. Absolutely not for
Adam Curry: no reason. For no reason. Fantastic. That was
good. That's in fact. I think that is worthy of a clip of the
day I'm gonna get that one too. That was truly bizarrely nutty
and what a way to shame someone just in a horrific way. You do
hater apologize now Jew hater. What's the guy gonna do? I'm
sorry.
John C Dvorak: It's not that different than what calling
everyone a racist. If a Jew
Adam Curry: hater is next level shit man. Maybe we should do a
talking point segment from time to time so you can just point
them out what these talking points are. That's all we do.
Yeah, but but identify it is such a people can arm themselves
against them.
John C Dvorak: Man, I don't know if you can arm yourself against
good ones, especially if they turn into memes. No, we're
pretty good. It's I guess like Adam and Adam. Adam is not like
Adam. It's like a I'm Scott Adams. And his one, you know,
conceit is he triggers his a victory that debunked the
Charlottesville bad people on both sides. And it's just does
not it doesn't stay
Adam Curry: nowhere. No, it can't. It can't because it's
it's in the history books forever.
John C Dvorak: Yeah. And there's, there's a number of
these that we fight on this show constantly, while we fight the
red line, the stories about the gassing of the Syrians.
canisters that couldn't possibly come from the Syrian army are
still credited to them, oh, they gas their own people. We've
that's useless. You might as well what's deployed to find
that is not going to ever change anything, but you see, kept
getting repeated, repeated and repeated. And let's go into
something else. That's going to be history very shortly, because
everyone's going to believe this. This is from season two of
the good fight, which is on CBS access. It's a spin off of The
Good Wife. And they and because it's on CBS access, which is
kind of like a cable channel for CBS. Do they play dramas and
things that they wouldn't get on the network because they're not
good enough or they are they're off? They're off the rails.
Let's start with CBS. It was a good fight one, you we think
you're being deported for political reasons. Mr. Trump, he
doesn't want me here. He sends me back to Russia. They will
come who will kill you, Putin,
Unknown: because of this tape, the DVD.
So your accusation is that you were videotaped? Urinating from
Mr. Trump in Moscow hotel? Suite?
You urinated on the bed? where Obama slept? Yes. No, who slept?
Then Trump up?
Adam Curry: Oh, my God, Julius. I'm not political. I have no
issues with American politics. I only wish to stay in America. I
want to stay in school. What are you studying? Hotel Management?
Wait a minute. This is a recent television show episode.
John C Dvorak: Season two is from last year.
Adam Curry: Oh my goodness. How come you didn't catch it last
year?
John C Dvorak: Well, I don't watch shit like this. Well,
Adam Curry: you know what you get for shit. Like this is a big
old CRT D clip. And I'm afraid you have more.
John C Dvorak: I am fortunately do have more. Now the way the
story goes. I'm going to tell you the story as it goes. This
woman comes in she wants to get she's going to be deported for
getting a traffic ticket or beaten somebody.
Adam Curry: But she peed on the bed for Trump. And she realized
John C Dvorak: that she's being deported because of that. She
peed on the bed and Trump By the way, peed on the bed too. If you
listen to that.
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. No, no. I demand a replay. It was so good.
You think you're being deported for political reasons. Mr.
Trump, he doesn't want me here. He sends me back to Russia. They
will come who will kill you, Putin because of this tape, the
baby tape.
Unknown: So your accusation is that you were videotaped?
Urinating for Mr. Trump in Moscow
hotel room suite. Excuse me? hotel suite. You urinated on the
bed where Obama slept? That I did not know who slept there.
Then Trump up. Oh my god. I am not political. I have no issues
with American politics. I only wish to stay in America. I want
to stay in school. Please study hotel management.
Adam Curry: That's a funny line by the hotel manager. Wow.
That's crazy. Okay, then I have a last 12 second or for you What
is wrong with this CBS News report, which came on the 50th
anniversary of the moon landing. Oh, here we go.
Unknown: This weekend marked 50 years since Apollo 11. Z
moonwalkers took one giant leap for humanity.
Adam Curry: What's wrong with that clip?
John C Dvorak: It was a leap for mankind.
Adam Curry: Do you ever you can't say that that's not
politically correct anymore. So she changed it. You gotta say
humanity, baby. Here it is again.
Unknown: This weekend marked 50 years since Apollo 11. Z
moonwalkers took one giant leap for humanity.
John C Dvorak: Oh, that is terrible. I'll give you a border
length Tip of the day for that just to end the show.
Adam Curry: Well, I'll I'll hold over on it. You'll owe it to me.
So here is CNN. Now of course you can you have to be a black
guy on CNN in order to explain this. And this is I don't know
who this guy is. It's a midday host, but maybe it's just on the
weekends. You see we're missing the code words in what in what
the President It is saying
Unknown: this morning the President attacked another
member of Congress on Twitter. This time its House Oversight
Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings. He wrote this Cummings
district is a disgusting rat and rodent infested mess. If he
spent more time in Baltimore, maybe he could help clean up
this very dangerous and filthy place. No human being would want
to live there. infested. That's usually reserved for references
to rodents and insects. But we've seen the President invoke
infestation to criticize lawmakers before you see a
pattern here. Just two weeks ago, President Trump attacked
four minority Congresswoman, why don't they go back to the
totally broken and crime infested places from which they
came? Reminder three of them were born here. All of them are
American infested. He says a week before his inauguration
January 2007. You
John C Dvorak: have to at least stop it. Scott Adams made a huge
stink about this and his little thing. Oh, yeah. He says, you
know, they always read the Why don't you go back to the crime
infested, blah, blah, blah, but they never read the rest of the
tweet ever.
Adam Curry: Oh, there was more. It was more to the tweet.
John C Dvorak: They never read the rest of the saw the tweet
when it came out. And I don't have it in front of me, but I
can paraphrase that it says go back to the crime infested
places from where they came, fix it, come back and tell us what
you did. There's there's the there's the notion to come back
right we're not telling a good Diliman state
Adam Curry: aid right and that and that so in this case with
infested being the code word that he would really be asking
for infestation to return which he's not doing so
John C Dvorak: I got the whole thing is this is another made up
oh, I'm I'm so upset by this guy. thing I'm surprised they
don't bring me you know putting them in prison after he gets out
of office nonsense but okay, but that needs to be met because
they refuse to read the rest of the tweet and even to CBS report
that we had earlier on impeachment they read part of
the tweet and then they didn't read they they showed it on the
on the screen and then they had it highlight only read from the
gut of it. They didn't read the whole thing. I mean, it's just
ridiculous but okay, go on. Go on on your merry way.
Unknown: places from which they came. Reminder three of them
were born here. All of them are American infested. He says a
week before his inauguration January 2017 weighed more
proofs. Congressman John Lewis should spend more time on fixing
and helping his district which is in horrible shape and falling
apart not to mention crime infested. Donald Trump has
tweeted more than 43,000 times he's insulted 1000s of people,
many different types of people. But when he tweets about
infestation it's about black and brown people
Adam Curry: okay.
John C Dvorak: Oh man. Even just a clip of the day but I'm gonna
give you a borderlines for these get credit for digging it so
pathetic. I
Adam Curry: love that payoff. The YouTube union has decided to
make a bold move. This is a German guy who is in charge of
the YouTube Union. He will explain
Unknown: attention YouTube, here we go. Being a YouTuber is a
dream job for lots of young people. But two years ago,
YouTube turned the dream job into a nightmare. Real
YouTubers.
John C Dvorak: This is bullcrap. Oh, it's not whole story. I'm no
comedian.
Adam Curry: No, no, no, no. Why don't while I'm no, I'm not
gonna I'm not gonna blow the punch line to this. It's real.
And there's something really big that real
John C Dvorak: if you just show me it's real. So I'm not going
to be suckered. No, you're
Adam Curry: not gonna be suckered.
John C Dvorak: Okay, go on. Attention, YouTube.
Unknown: Here we go. Being a YouTuber is a dream job for lots
of young people. But two years ago, YouTube current the dream
job into a nightmare. The real YouTubers that are the reason
for YouTube's big success are getting censored, deleted,
erased and hidden. Making a living on YouTube is actually no
longer possible. Many channels have entirely disappeared or are
now reduced to a minimum. There is no job security. It seems
like YouTube doesn't want independent YouTubers anymore,
because now YouTube prefers like channels run by TV stations, or
Hollywood celebrities. And for those guys, completely different
rules apply. They won't be censored. They won't be raised.
They won't be kicked out. YouTube's actually pushing these
guys with everything they have. All this happens simply out of
greed for profit. Oh wow. Simply because advertisers prefer Will
Smith or For the Independent YouTuber,
Adam Curry: let me see hmm. Will Smith, Guy eating and crying
Will Smith guy eating and cry? Hold on,
Unknown: but YouTube should not be so sure about that strategy.
Since one year, we have the youtubers union, and we have
1000s of YouTubers that are now united and picked up the fight.
The only problem is that so far we haven't been able to achieve
much. But exactly that is going to change. Now, IG Metall, the
largest independent trade union on the planet, and the youtubers
Union are now joining forces with a clear goal to bring back
the old YouTube. We have founded the joint venture fair tube and
now time will change for YouTube. Since we have 125 years
of experience in the fight against injustice, and over 2
million members, plus superb lawyers are now joining forces
with 1000s of YouTubers who are really unhappy with the way
things go together. I think we are completely unbeatable. Peer
tube is unbeatable.
Adam Curry: is unbeatable.
John C Dvorak: Again, they give you a clip of the day
because that guy's accent it was just
Adam Curry: well, you know, he sounds like
John C Dvorak: sounds like somebody from Hogan's Heroes.
Adam Curry: The sounds like comic strip blogger
Unknown: a little bit. Yeah.
Adam Curry: So they've joined with IG Metall, which is the
used to be the Metal Workers Union in Germany. They do have 2
million members and this video goes on for for another 15
minutes and talking to the IG metal Union Lady, they really
have cooked up their fare tube YouTubers union to IG metal and
I here's the sad part. It's the people who are members of these
union and who are serious like this guy. They truly believe
that they put YouTube on the map that YouTube would be nothing
without us. And they just don't understand how it works. And
they don't understand that. Yes, yes. Will Smith is preferable
not to YouTube, to the advertisers. When YouTube can
say we've got Will Smith, you know, this is great. Your ads
gonna run on Will Smith pretty much for free. Because Will
Smith's just putting their stuff up there. It's great. Yes, you
just losers, sorry. But okay, believing your union. Well,
John C Dvorak: like, you know, give at least be nice, be nice.
Adam Curry: No, I want to be nice. But I want to be
realistic. People really think that they can make a living off
of someone else's platform. You can't. It's not supposed to
work. Well,
John C Dvorak: that is the issue. Now. I mean, if you had
your own servers and did your own thing, which is what we do
on this show, as opposed to using pod bean.
Adam Curry: Stop. All right, last one from me. We have not
had any update on the college admission scandal have we we
don't even know what's going on. It's been wiped off the of the
face of the map pasted.
John C Dvorak: I would say it's not at the top of the list of
news items that they're playing on now.
Adam Curry: So I have no idea what's going on with that. But
there is a new scam and new college admission scam, which is
when you think about it could have been a great exit strategy.
Unknown: Thank you. A new Firestorm
is erupting over college admissions families reportedly
transferring legal guardianship of their children in order to
get financial aid. It's totally legal, but there are critics who
say it is unfair. And VCs
Ron Mott has
details. It works like this families, some of whom live in
million dollar homes with incomes well into six figures go
to court to have a legal guardian with fewer financial
resources appointed for their college bound students, giving
them a better shot at qualifying for need based financial aid,
and it's perfectly legal. According to ProPublica,
Illinois and the Wall Street Journal citing court records,
the tactic has been used effectively dozens of times
they were filed by one of two law firms, and many of them use
language in the petition, such as the guardian would provide
educational and financial opportunities that the parents
could not otherwise provide.
Advocates of the legal maneuver argue that unlike the college
admission scandal, which has led to multiple criminal
convictions, these students were fairly accepted and are looking
for a way to pay for it. As the annual cost of tuition and fees
at the nation's colleges have skyrocketed, rising more than
150% Over the past two decades, a bottom line increase of nearly
$32,000 a year on average. They're absolutely cheating.
Still, some critics contend these families and their
students should endure the appropriate pinch based on their
resources.
This technique in particular is new and absolutely deserves
everybody's sort of shock and scorn
on another wave of controversy cascading down on college
campuses. Money once again at the center. Ron Maude, NBC News
Chicago
John C Dvorak: giving you a clip of the day for a double twin
clip if you wonder why there's a wealth gap is because these
people this this guy's bitching about they're just smarter
interest is the smartest thing I've ever heard a sushi Here you
go yeah you got a maid working for you Hey made you're now
going by to the 17 year old made the sign here made
Adam Curry: the troll room reports DC girl says that she
knows someone did this in 1995
John C Dvorak: It's an old yeah of course they keep it to
themselves
Adam Curry: but they're saying dozens and dozens it sounds like
this is probably something that's just been going on
forever. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: it's been under the radar.
Adam Curry: What a great scam that is.
John C Dvorak: It's fabulous.
Adam Curry: In fact, some I think it's something that you
could actually put your ethics aside for.
Unknown: No
John C Dvorak: because your your ethics not really not aside
because these schools with these ridiculous tuitions out of the
blue when I went to college at the University of California
Berkeley for almost free is dare dare the ethical, ethically
challenged this ridiculous. Ridiculous. It's ridiculous.
Adam Curry: It's ridiculous. I tell you. Anyway, let's get into
some some crazy, crazy news. We have to deconstruct because it's
got information,
Unknown: man, new shit has come to light.
Adam Curry: You know, I'm tossing Joe Digenova overboard.
He's just not he's not delivering. He's not given me
the 1000s of sealed indictments. You know, it's just it's not
happened. We have a new guy. And I think he has better
credentials than than our friends. Joe smokin Joe
Digenova. I think the the CEO of overstock.com Patrick Byrne is a
CEO of a publicly listed company, that stock price is
severely is being suppressed or depressed at the moment that
it's down. And that's not just because of whatever's going on
globally. But he's involved in the Russian collusion store
collusion story. And at first I Sarah, a Carter, Sarah a
carter.com. Yeah, I subscribe to the feed, and I read her stuff
and people send me articles. I'm like, Is this really true what
she's saying? And so I'm hunting around. And lo and behold, two
days ago, the CEO of overstock.com was on Fox
Business News. To explain exactly what's going on.
Unknown: I let me let me give it to you in a nutshell, in a very
strange way, by a weird fluke of history. I ended up in the
center of the Russian and the Clinton investigations. I have
all the answers. I've been sitting on them waiting for
America to get there last summer I figured out I have all the
answers to both of those. What they all are. It's all about
political espionage had nothing to do with law enforcement. I
thought I was helping them in some law enforcement was all
political espionage. Here's the bottom line. There is a deep
state, like a like a submarine lurking just beneath the waves
at periscope depth, watching our shipping lanes and a nuclear
icebreaker named the US as Bill Barr has snuck up on them and is
about to ram them and midships. That's about to happen. And I
think we're about to see the biggest scandal in American
history. Wow, as a result, but it was all played out everything
you think you know about Russia and Clinton investigations is a
lie. It's all a cover up. It was all political estimating Bill
Barr is gonna get to the bottom of it. I think I think he has
gotten to the bottom of it. It was believing that there was
political espionage conducted against Hillary Clinton. And I
can tell you two of the names involved were John Brennan and
James Comey. But there was political espionage conducted
against Hillary Clinton against Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and Donald
Trump. And everything you think you know about the Russian
collusion investigation is a lie. Well, you're gonna be
exposed.
Adam Curry: Fabulous. Of course. It's all sealed. Sealed
indictments, I'm sure.
John C Dvorak: Wow. Oh, good. To start the day off right with a
clip of the day. Story show couldn't resist the biggest bull
crap out there.
Adam Curry: Now, the story goes that he was in a romantic
relationship with the with the Butina guide. The Russian spy
the girl who was my girl the hottie? Yeah. Well, she's not as
hot as the
John C Dvorak: first as the redhead. No, no, no,
Adam Curry: but she's the one that To was a roadie pirate.
She's in jail right now because she didn't register as a foreign
agent which half of DC has done yeah spoke. Of course she's a
spook. And so that's
John C Dvorak: what's this guy? Hold on a second. What's this
guy's name again?
Adam Curry: Patrick Byrne by R N E. And overstock I guess we
could look and take a look. It was down because of the CEO
being
John C Dvorak: nuts. I do want to play this clip I've been
meaning to play for what's his retirement candidates is Bernie
again. And this is when he was on the Joe Rogan show and this
is the gaff that I thought was kind of amusing. I think a lot
of people caught it and Joe didn't nobody seemed it wasn't
nobody. What did you think overall? Biden's a gaffe machine
but Bernie's not?
Adam Curry: What did you think overall? Overall, I found to be
quite weak. I didn't think the I expected a lot more from that
interview with with Rogan.
John C Dvorak: I don't think Rogan likes him. Yeah, but I
didn't. Bernie has never looked at him in the eyes looking down,
he's,
Adam Curry: well, Joe, I'll tell you. I'll tell you jokes, the
world right
Unknown: now is spending a trillion and a half dollars on
weapons of destruction designed to kill each other. And maybe
just maybe if we had a kind of leader, and I hope to be that
leader, who says to the world, instead of spending a trillion
and a half dollars killing each other, maybe we'll use those
resources to transform the global energy system and save
the planet for our kids and our grandchildren. That's the goal
that I have, well,
these these ideas sound great, but in the competitive
environment of global politics, how would you convince Russia or
China or any of these countries to do something that would put
them in some sort of competitive disadvantage?
Well, in the answer is, Joe, if we do not do that, in 50 or 100
years, everybody's gonna look, I'm not, you know, I'm saying,
I'm not telling you that tomorrow, it's gonna happen. But
you got to make the case these people, you know, Putin is a
dictator, I dislike him intensely, you know, chi in
China, very authoritarian stuff on top, but they're not crazy
people. And presumably, they have concerned about their kids
and their grandchildren. This is a planet on the siege, and I
don't want to become a science fiction. You've all seen the
movies of the media, racing toward Earth, we're gonna blow
up the earth. What do we do? Well, we got to get together.
This isn't a sense what that is about you don't want to think
about in 1941 after Pearl Harbor, all right. We were faced
with a war in the east with China, a war in the West, in
Europe with it. Within two years, the United States had
transformed its economy to address and win the war
basically in two or three years by reindustrialize. If we can do
it, we can lead the world. That's what we have to do.
Adam Curry: No, wait a minute. Wait, what was the big flub?
China? China? Did you say China?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, war with China? is a big war with China
and World War Two. Yeah, remember that? It's thinking of
war with China. And that's it. That's on his mind. Yeah, I
would never vote for this guy.
Adam Curry: So that's not a flub, that's that is the truth
wants to come out. Yeah, he wants to have war with China.
Let's just listen to it in context. Again,
Unknown: you know, what, like, think about in 1941? After Pearl
Harbor, all right. We were faced with a war in the east with
China, a war in the West, in Europe, with Hitler. Within two
years, the United States had transformed its economy to
address and win the war, basically, in two or three
years. I
Adam Curry: think you're right. I think he wants to go to war
with I'm gonna give you a borderline for that. That was a
good catch. What's a good one, that Joe is not really
listening. I gotta flubbed obviously. So this really works.
So this wasn't just a flood that was the truth wants to come out.
Now. I also have a the truth wants to come out clip. And this
is about Bruce and Nelly Orr. And they are deeply involved in
this GPS fusion GPS Steele report with the golden showers
and I'm sure this is from Fox News or Fox Business news
John C Dvorak: tonight, but before we play that, can I just
throw in a little thing? I think I don't think I brought up the
show. But I'm going to bring it up. This this whole golden
showers peeing all over the place and and making the bed
stink, whatever they're up to. And all this other stuff that
Trump you know, is somehow involved with we it's always
overlooked that Trump is a
Adam Curry: germaphobe. And you've brought this up many
times
John C Dvorak: on the show, right, guys? I don't remember
his dinner table, or if it was that on the show, okay. Take it.
Adam Curry: All right. So again, the truth wants to come out
Unknown: at Nellie or is in constant communication, not only
with proofs, but with his underlings at the Justice
Department on a whole host of matters. Sending news reports in
the original Russian to her friends at the Justice
Department Of course trying to say Your Donald Trump along the
way, you know turns out Nellie hor, Nellie or may have been the
most significant hire
Adam Curry: the truth always wants to come out.
John C Dvorak: Wow. Geez. Kim Hamlin makes a scratch I have to
give you a borderline for that.
Adam Curry: I appreciate your call Shawn these things Nelly
whore
John C Dvorak: deli hor Wow
Adam Curry: Well, let's take a brief break here and go to KTLA
is reporter on the spot.
Unknown: We tried to reach out to the man who died in this
pursuit. They were unavailable for comment mica back to you.
Watch Yeah, it's
Adam Curry: that great. When it was sent you that that? Well,
it's a single piece of video it's linked to it's a YouTube
video and it's not edited that I can tell so it makes total
sense.
Unknown: We tried to reach out to the man who died in this
pursuit. They were unavailable for comment mica back to you.
Adam Curry: KTLA on the seat, everybody. Are
John C Dvorak: you gonna get a clip of the day for?
Adam Curry: Uber? I didn't recognize I would get that.
Thank you. Just to stay on. Sorry.
John C Dvorak: You knew you'd get that's
Adam Curry: definitely no, no, no, no, I didn't I did not
expect it to be clicked with the day. But I'll take it
John C Dvorak: but But it was funny though. They black girl
they get bring her in to do interrogation. And she reads the
riot act to these these two agents, two FBI agents, and they
use them I thought it was pretty gutsy. What the way wolf had him
do this. The attack by her on the white woman in particular. I
just thought it was a funny back and forth even though again,
you're going to find the acting to be mediocre. Although I'd say
the black female actress is probably one of the she was very
convincing in this particular little scene.
Unknown: I was at the garage, but I wasn't looking to kill
her. I just wanted to get her on video. Ambusher get her to say
something stupid. So I could posted on my YouTube channel.
So you took a job heading out to the rules just to confront
Caldwell shore
did what? What were you going to confront her about?
My brother, Wayne Simmons. She had him locked up for 10 years
for crime he didn't commit. She was a prosecutor and Wayne's
trial, made up all kinds of stories and theories just to get
a conviction. Now that she's running for President, I've got
to let the world know how evil that woman really is. Evil.
Senator Caldwell damn right. Sasha hurts to see your brother
convicted of
a violent crime. But it's up to the jury to convict the 12
unbias, people who believe that Wayne was guilty. You weren't
campaign managers something I'm just reminding you. The Caldwell
was just the prosecutor. All she did was present the evidence was
the decision of the jury to convict him. Yeah, based
on Caldwell's lies. That bitch made her whole career maxing out
innocent black men. But now that she's running for president,
she's suddenly all woke and compassionate. Trying to act
like she Martin Luther King Jr. And all you suck as white people
lap it up and worship the ground. She walks off.
Adam Curry: Wow, I am going to give you a clip of the day for
that. That was fantastic. Oh man, assassination by FBI BY
FAKE FBI. That's really people. Yeah. And, and somehow we're to
blame again. White people done it. Yeah. Holy moly. That was
interesting. Okay, yeah, camel has been effectively shut down.
Well, then let me let me just stay with my favorite topic,
which is sports. Yes, yes, I
John C Dvorak: have. I'm interested.
Adam Curry: Well, I was watching my buddy over there in fs one.
Jason Whitlock as usual, guys. Great. Jason Whitlock is great.
And he decided to, to splain to everybody something we kind of
already knew. This is regarding the the NBA and China but for
those who have not followed him outside of the United United
States. One tweet from one guy who said, Hey, I stand behind
Hong Kong sent to the Chinese into a tizzy who knew that
there's like 300 million basketball fans in China. And
very popular and Jason Whitlock explains it just a little bit
further.
Unknown: Nike is in control of basketball, the NBA college
basketball High School, Nike is the real person driving this
conversation and this thing with China? If you go back to now I'm
connected to politics in 2015. In May of 2015, President Barack
Obama went to Nikes headquarters in Portland, Oregon, yes, and
announced his defense of the TPP. Trans Pacific Partnership.
That's a trade deal that was gonna be very favorable for Nike
for China, who's the president that came after Obama and walked
America away from the TPP Donald Trump, who is the shoe company
that employs LeBron James Colin Kaepernick and these other
athletes that smear Donald Trump is racist. Who are the people
constantly criticizing Donald Trump? NBA, Steve Kerr, Gregg
Popovich, the NBA answers to Nike Nikes a $40 billion
business. The NBA is an $8 billion business, President
Obama, the basketball President friendly relationship with the
NBA went to Nikes headquarters to announce his defense of the
TPP this thing is very simple. This is about money. This is
about a president that won't cooperate with what Nike wants
done. Nike is using the NBA and its leverage over the NBA to go
after this guy because they disagree with him about his
policies as it relates to trade in China.
Adam Curry: Yeah, China owns the NBA macro,
John C Dvorak: you gotta get Clip of the Day for that
discovery. Clip. I want you to credit whoever it was that sent
it to you.
Adam Curry: I mean, when you really just you know, when you
use your skill at sports, you can you know, you can figure
stuff out. Just for everyone who really wants the US to stay at
war. You know, this is something you could use around the water
cooler if someone says you know, just to see if you could fry
someone's brain. But man, we got to we got to stay with protect
the Kurds, man, we're gonna protect the Kurds. Two
Unknown: major studies published in June remained buried by most
major media outlets. The first Pentagon fuel use, climate
change and the costs of war by Brown University's Costs of War
Project confirmed previous findings that the US military is
the single largest producer of greenhouse gases in the world,
and that the Pentagon is responsible for between 77 and
80% of all US government energy consumption since 2001. The
second study hidden carbon costs of the everywhere war,
logistics, geopolitical ecology and the carbon footprint of the
US military, published in transactions of the Institute of
British geographers found that if the US military were a
country, its fuel usage alone would make it the 47th largest
emitter of greenhouse gases in the world between Peru and
Portugal. But these groundbreaking studies received
no coverage and virtually all of the US his biggest papers and TV
news channels. Well,
Adam Curry: I liked that carbon footprint. Was that what she
said? Someone in the troll room said it I don't know.
John C Dvorak: Somebody said carbon footprint. That's great.
Oh, by the way, I want to give you a borderline clip for that.
That was a nice clip.
Adam Curry: Thank you. It's from the show counter spin and
producer sent it to me. I don't remember who sent it to me.
Okay, right. Let's get your pen John. Yeah, write it that you
guarantee it's a chunk guarantee.
Unknown: If Donald Trump were to be reelected, I guarantee you he
will start locking people up. He has
Adam Curry: said it 1000s of sealed indictments, I tell you.
Unknown: He has said it over and over again, that we should lock
up his political opponents. Really, people who think he's
kidding, are stupid. They have not paid any attention at all.
The maniacal, monstrous things that he promised to do he has
tried to do over and over again. There has been some checks and
balances in the system. And we managed to stop him from doing
some of the most outrageous things, but it is in his nature.
His inclination
Adam Curry: well, he act I'm glad you asked that final clip
explains the checks and balances in the system. Were able to stop
him from doing something that we know 100% happened, even though
it was in a book from someone who heard about it, who had seen
someone who would probably be in there.
Unknown: So look, this story that probably most defines
Donald Trump is the one that broke recently about what do you
want to do with immigrants? First thing you want to do was
murder them and you wanted to see if we could just shoot them
and kill them. and even his own right wing barbaric advocate
advisors, said, No, Mr. President, we cannot just
wantonly murder everyone at the border. He's like God dammit.
And he was upset at that. And he's like, can we shoot him in
the legs? He said that any was not remotely kidding. So you
think that guy is gonna have any checks if he wins reelection?
No, he's already weeded out anyone who will say no, almost
everybody in that room that said no to him shooting people in the
legs or in the head has already been removed. So there'll be
nothing but yes, men, there'll be nothing but disaster if Trump
wins and he clearly
Adam Curry: chunk has gone to the Adam Schiff School of
interpret interpretive language. I mean, doesn't even paraphrase
John C Dvorak: it labels humans, by the way, they believe
everything they read to which is really just depressing.
Adam Curry: Oh, my goodness. It's, but it's, it's getting fun
for us. I mean, this is great for the show chunk.
John C Dvorak: People I'm gonna give you a clip of the day for
bringing that clip clip. Clip.
Adam Curry: Clip. Well, the next Sandy was shilling for Bernie on
the aforementioned what was that? The the climate change
John C Dvorak: event down in South Carolina, wherever. Right?
Right. Right. Right. And, and with with the ground loop buzz,
Adam Curry: well, they didn't have the ground loop buzz on, on
et now AOC dressed in a very interesting outfit, just from a
television and stage perspective, a long green dress
about calf high, two under the long well below the knees, with
brown with no black stockings, or whatever they were in black
shoes. And it was, it was it was a very, this was a different
outfit for her. And I'm not and it was green, of course, which I
guess was for the green New Deal. But then when she had kind
of this flowy motion, and then she went into this whole thing
about politicians, which she repeated later on stage, or
maybe was earlier at a Bernie rally. But this was a much
better version. And she's just talking about how heartbreaking
it is when politicians lie to you.
Unknown: And so when you elect the politician, and then they
let you down, it feels like rejection. It feels like
heartbreak. It feels like betrayal. And it feels like I
never want to love again. That's what that's like. And so
Adam Curry: I never want to love again. Hold on. Here we go. I
feel like I remember the day by the way. Well, let's play the
hole.
Unknown: And it feels like I never want to love again. That's
what that feels like. And so I understand how that feels,
because I felt that way. But you know what happens when you say I
never want to love again, your heart gets black. And you turn
angry, and you get very anxious.
Adam Curry: I'm going to take my clip for the day that I'm going
to take. Thank you, Sandy. Thank you, Sandy. I said why? You left
me? Oh, Sandy. Yes, Sandy. That's our new tune. Whenever we
play a good AOC clip
John C Dvorak: like that. That is the funniest clip for a
while. Can
Adam Curry: you believe that? We have the typical Fox News proofs
that this was a big nothing burger. I love playing that.
This is in two in both cases. Republican Mike Turner really
got straight to the heart of the matter. Each segment about a
minute in length, and that was all we really needed to
understand what this was about. First, she's going he's going to
ask Ambassador sondland The ambassador to the European
Union, if he actually ever heard anyone anywhere say that Trump
wanted something in return for letting the security assistance
flow.
Unknown: After you testified. Chairman Schiff ran out and gave
a press conference and said he gets to impeach the president.
I'd say it's because of your testimony. And if you pull up
CNN today, right now, their banner says sondland ties Trump
to withholding aid. Is that your testimony today Mr. masseur?
sondland that you have evidence that Donald Trump tied the
investigation to aid because I don't think you're saying that
I've said repeatedly. Congressman, I was presuming I
also said that President Trump so no, it's not just the
president Giuliani didn't tell you Mulvaney didn't tell you.
Nobody. Pompeo didn't tell you nobody else This planet told you
that Donald Trump was tying aid to these investigations. Is that
correct? I think I already testified I answered the
question. Is it correct? No one on this planet told you that
Donald Trump was tying this aid to the investigation? Because if
your answer is yes, than the chairman's wrong, and the
headline on CNN is wrong, no one on this planet told you that
President Trump was tying aid to investigations yes or no? Yes.
So you really have no testimony today that ties President Trump
to a scheme to withhold aid from Ukraine in exchange for these
investigations. Other than my own presumption, which is
nothing
Adam Curry: worthless, this is no good.
John C Dvorak: Well, that is a debts that probably should be
highlighted as Clip of the Day.
Adam Curry: Well, then I will take that award in recognition
now.
John C Dvorak: Because it really negates the entire testimony
that every news source New York Times CNN, MSNBC, obviously even
Fox probably Oh, yeah, Fox, definitely. I'm talking about
Deutsche Avella, France 24. And all these other guys, they all
have, spewed the misinformation that this guy tied everything
together. And his testimony has sunk Trump.
Adam Curry: Did you see shift the shift backtracking?
John C Dvorak: Oh, he's doesn't know what to do with themselves.
Poor guy.
Adam Curry: Poor guy.
John C Dvorak: Yeah. I mean, really, I mean, he has middle to
shed his skin and
Adam Curry: his eyes are popping out because of
John C Dvorak: it as you're popping out. Yeah.
Adam Curry: That's true. Well, he was on. Jake Tapper show you.
I like Jake Tapper. He's He's always had an edge to him. He's
pushing back and shift just just pulls out the biggest
chickenshit excuse ever
Unknown: if the facts aren't contested, and your committee is
writing up the report, and you don't at least as of now have
any scheduled witnesses or depositions? Do you think
President Trump should be impeached? I want to discuss
this with my constituents and my colleagues before I make a final
judgment on it.
John C Dvorak: Okay, you get the day for this?
Adam Curry: Oh, I knew you'd like it. Are you kidding me? Oh,
yeah, he goes on, he goes on. You want to hear a little more?
This is very cute. This way. The whole thing?
John C Dvorak: Start from the beginning.
Unknown: Okay, if the facts aren't contested, and your
committee is writing up the report, and you don't at least
as of now have any scheduled witnesses or depositions? Do you
think President Trump should be impeached? I want to discuss
this with my constituents and my colleagues before I make a final
judgment on it. But there's a couple of really important
things we need to think about. And one is, are we prepared to
say that soliciting foreign interference conditioning
official acts like 400 million of taxpayer money Whitehouse
meetings to get political favors is somehow now compatible with
the office? Because if we do, it's basically carte blanche for
this President and anyone that comes after him. But are we also
prepared to say that Congress will tolerate the complete
stonewalling of an impeachment inquiry or our oversight?
Because if we do, it'll mean that the impeachment clause is a
complete nullity. And more than that, on our side ability is
really an ability and name only. But if that's your view, and
you've also said that this week's testimony, quote, goes
right to the heart of the issue of bribery. And you've also said
that what you've seen is, quote, far more serious than what Nixon
did. Explain to me how you have not come to the conclusion that
the President should be impeached? I mean, it sounds
like you think he should be impeached? Well, I certainly
think that the evidence that's been produced overwhelmingly
shows serious misconduct by the President. I do want to hear
more from my constituents and I want to hear more from my
colleagues. This is not a decision I will be making alone.
But at the end of the day, the decision about whether the the
Founding Fathers had in mind Founding Fathers when they gave
congress this remedy, and I have to think that this is very much
central to what they were concerned about it that is a
unethical man or woman takes that office uses it for their
personal political gain sacrifices the national security
to do so. If that wasn't what the founders had in mind it's
hard to imagine what the wow
Adam Curry: yeah so he's me he did fail because now the I guess
next week the judicial oversight the Judicial Committee is with
Nadler are now going to do some more hearings this this thing is
falling apart at the seams. And Fox News is clearly feeling
something is possible they had Anna Paulina on she's from I'm
turning point USA. So, you know, these are very anti leftist
people, anti Democrats specifically. This is just a
kind of a chopped up version of what happened recently when she
said something about Hillary Clinton and then listen to what
the Fox News host says horse
Unknown: she should be investigated. There's plenty of
evidence that Hillary obstructed justice by destroying evidence
in a gross and massive way. Joining us now Anna Paulina,
Director of Hispanic engagement at Turning Point USA, and Doug
Schoen Fox News contributor and former pollster for President
Bill Clinton. Good morning to you both Thanksgiving, I
think it's only fair. I'm all for starting a Clinton
investigation. I'm just
amazed that with everything going on in the world, we still
have Hillary Clinton in the headlines. Well, she's she's
like herpes. Okay, that's news that we're breaking here. We're
gonna we're gonna wrap this segment a little early die
because some of the language that was used in this segment,
we apologize to our viewers for that.
Adam Curry: So because the girl says Hillary Clinton won't go
away like herpes, they cut the segment short, throw her off
completely. And then in the next hour, you want
Unknown: to reiterate that we do not condone the language that
Anna Polina just displayed here, and we apologize to Secretary
Clinton for that Fox News does not contend condone her
sentiments.
Adam Curry: This is the strongest evidence we've ever
had that she's coming back into the race when Fox is sucking up
to her for that.
John C Dvorak: Their silly crap Clip of the Day. Oh, well, thank
Adam Curry: you. I agree with you.
John C Dvorak: That was a great catch
Adam Curry: was especially the second one, the second one,
John C Dvorak: it has a one two punch is obviously not a just
one good clip. But it was part of us of a calm process. Calm,
calm. So she says that she won't go away. She like herpes. She
won't go away, which is not a no, it's that it's not even
funny back off color.
Adam Curry: It's like 1980s Paul Provenza material. Yeah, it's
not about my comedy reference.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I don't even get that. But, you know,
it's like a bad penny. She could have said or whatever. Doesn't
make any sense anymore. It's
Adam Curry: like bad Mexican lunch. Oh, that would be racist.
I'm sorry. Like herpes, we keeps coming back like bad Mexican.
But
John C Dvorak: I mean, I would have said, well, that's, I mean,
there's a lot of ways to handle that. But it's not obscene.
Adam Curry: Well, they, they thought it was really
inappropriate. But
John C Dvorak: now that we're on a roll, it's not that we can't
just bitch about anything we can think about. And so what so l
Greene has a problem.
Adam Curry: Whoa, Speaker I rise because I love my country, and I
have a problem. But I also rise today. With heartfelt regrets.
It hurts my heart, Mr. Speaker, to see the Judiciary Committee,
hearing experts on the topic of impeachment. One of the seminal
issues of this Congress, hearing experts, Mr. Speaker, and not
one person of color among the experts, what subliminal message
are we sending to the world when we have experts, but not one
person of color? Are we saying that there are no people of
color? who are experts on this topic of impeachment? What is
the message that we're sending fantastic speaker? If I am
wrong, I will apologize. But if the committee is wrong, if the
Congress is wrong, what will it do? People of color for too
long, have been ignored by one party and taken for granted by
the other two often, this happens. Not always but too
often it happens. Mr. Speaker, I refuse to be ignored. And taken
for granted. I came here to represent the people who are
ignored and taken for granted. Not one person of color among
the constitutional scholars. It seems that there's a desire
among some to have the output of people of color without input
from the people of color. Before we do anything, I'm gonna give
you a clip of the day for that fantastic clip. That is so
fantastic. isn't a great the guy who is so worried about the
racist currently occupying the White House. That's how he would
say it is still feels that you're getting rid of this
horrible scourge, on our democracy and a republic. That's
less important than bitching about this Yeah, Lindsey,
Lindsey Graham. Remember he was there in Ukraine with all the
shenanigans with McCain and with well with the whole Clinton team
with the Brannon, and with Victoria Cagle, nuneham Newland
with her F, the F, the EU quote. And so Lindsay was first he was
like, well, we're just gonna do a real speedy trial. We're just
gonna, we're just going to vote in the Senate on this
impeachment, we'll be done with it so we can get back to doing
stuff because he's afraid that he'll be implicated in some of
these obvious corrupt practices that were going on. He had a
meeting with the President and now he sings a different tune.
Unknown: So I just met with the President, and he is demanding
his day in court. Every American accused of a crime or wrongdoing
gets their day in court, apparently, except Donald Trump.
And if you believe the Clinton impeachment trial was fair,
that's exactly the same time type trial that will happen in
the Senate with President Trump but I just left President Trump,
he's mad as hell, but they would do this to him and now deny him
his day in court. The reason they're denying his day and him
his day in court, so they know their case sucks.
John C Dvorak: That's a great yeah, give you a border like zip
for them. I didn't hear that. So well, he probably assured
Lindsay that he's not gonna go to jail. He says, If anything
happens, I've got bail. Yeah. Don't worry about it. Here's
another big story. This is the one on conspiracies,
Unknown: even apocalyptic. We all crave explanations for
things we don't understand. So some of us fill in the blanks
with conspiracy theories. We dug into that with Anna Merlin,
author of Republic of lies, American conspiracy theorists
and their surprising rise to power.
Adam Curry: How can we weren't interviewed What the hell is
that there's a whole book, American conspiracy theorists,
did you get a call? Did you get an email memo? Nothing.
Unknown: It used to be that far right. Conspiracy theories went
from fringe sites, some of them actual disinformation sites to
eventually places like Fox News. And that's sort of where they
stopped. And now they have another stuff which they go from
Fox News to the President or from fringe sites like Info Wars
straight to the President.
Adam Curry: Again, again, we're being snubbed. Hello. Hello
crackpot here, I'd like my props to the
Unknown: President or from fringe sites like Info Wars
straight to the President.
And this problem continues to get worse and worse. What is the
logical extension of all of this?
Adam Curry: This is so good. John, what do you think is
really happening in the world? When it comes from Infowars
straight to the President's
Unknown: out of control tinfoil Hattery.
So one thesis is that especially state backed disinformation
sources, like the ones we've seen in Russia, like the
internet research agency, that one of their goals is to make
the information ecosystem so chaotic and so unstable and so
unreliable, that people start believing that the actual
objective truth is not knowable, and that they should stop
looking for it.
Adam Curry: Oh, success. Wow, leave this no conspiracies.
John C Dvorak: By the way. Only right wing. There's never been a
left wing conspiracy. There are no All right wing.
Adam Curry: Wait, stop. Wait for the for that one. Just out of
that. Just definitely clip at the clip.
John C Dvorak: She talks through this whole thing. And it all
culminated in Fox News. Yes.
Adam Curry: Right. And the other route is from Infowars. Direct
to the President. The Russian pranksters as they're known, I
just liked I prefer to call them the podcasters vo Vaughn and
Lexus have they struck again. Now previously, they had gotten
through to Congressman Adam shifts office claiming that they
had kompromat and compromising pictures of Trump. If you
remember we had some of that some of that phone call. And
these guys just like radio guys like weenie in the butt of
Moscow. So they have a new Gambit, and they went after
Maxine Waters and pretending to be great that you embed and
Griffith is dead. And they made up this. They made up the name
of an island Chunga Changa. I think that's literally what it's
called. And they decided they're going to call into Maxine Waters
office, get her on the phone and say Well, listen that Maxine you
know, it's Greta and greatest dad. And we're here in I think
it's what they say they were South Carolina and No, no, we're
here to garner support to save the island of Chunga. Changa.
And could you please help us out? We'll put you on
speakerphone. And I pulled the pertinent clip from this from
this YouTube video. And, you know, this used to be what
Americans did. We used to be the fun phone, phone pranksters.
We've let Russia grab that away from us,
Unknown: Congresswoman. Yeah, I have Greta and her father's
Devonte on the line. Very much, Congresswoman. This is one of
the greatest father. And here's a great Yes.
On the line. Why does Hello. I'm very happy to talk to you. Well,
thank
you both for calling me and I'm very anxious to hear from you.
Yes, I know that yours called you and Maxine. This sounds
Adam Curry: brilliant, brilliant butter up first by calling her
auntie Maxine. That's the she'll love that butter up very good.
By the way these guys sound nothing like Swedish Greta and
her dad. But still Maxine is falling for it.
Unknown: Absolutely, yes.
That's so nice. We have wonderful climate strike to
support the ecology of temperature on the island.
Southland of people came to meet me.
Well, thank you. And I'm so glad you came to my state. And of
course, I know all about you. You have made quite a big, big,
big thunder on this issue. I am really, really very proud of you
and the work that you're doing.
We're now in North Carolina.
So we are in the climate strike here in a meeting.
Okay, so you're in the meeting now you start the meeting has
started. Yes, yes. Yes. Yes.
We they're not here now at the meeting. And if you will allow
me I will put you on a speakerphone. So yes.
And we will let you say to people who is around here.
Which island? Are they targeting?
Adam Curry: This is this is the part I like the best. All these
politicians are like that is like if I can get anything out
of you. And of course typically these calls are about money. But
right now it's like oh shit, I can align myself with Greta.
kamberi This is fantastic. This is good for me. And they can
roll out some bullcrap script, just right off the cuff. Even
Maxine, and she's up there and age, but she's still She's a pro
at rolling it out. So she has a little bit of information. She
knows it's North Carolina. She knows it's Greta who's a thunder
apparently. She knows it's Chunga Changa Island, which
doesn't exist. And she's going to do a little promo
Unknown: so and we will let you say to people who is around
here. Which
island? Are they targeting? Chunga? Changa? Chunga Changa?
Yes. Hello, everybody. This is Congresswoman Maxine Waters. And
I am so pleased to be on this telephone call with Greta
Thornburg. I am just so glad.
Adam Curry: She says thud Berg. Berg, which is a new one for us
Unknown: on this telephone call with Greta Sundberg. I am just
so proud of her and her father Savanti that bird and the work
that they are doing. As you know, Greta is an environmental
activist. And she took part in the United Nations Climate
Summit in New York recently, and she has been traveling and she
has been the greatest advocate for what is happening with our
climate and the environment. And I'm very pleased that she's with
you in North Carolina, where you're focusing on protecting
the very important island of Tula challenge
Adam Curry: I'm so happy she's supporting the very important
the critically important the island of chimichanga you Greta
Thunberg and your dad Devonte Thunberg Come on. Well, I
believe these these two comrades deserve a medal for this work.
This is really very good.
John C Dvorak: Well, let's give them the Clip of the Day. Yeah,
Adam Curry: you know, I wonder what that we should do a Russian
version so we can so they'll know how good they were. Oh, god
dang. Comrade.
John C Dvorak: Now both of them sound like a couple of Russians.
It's amazing. More ludicrous.
Adam Curry: It's a 15 minute call. There's there's more in
But I thought that was the funniest one, especially the
Thunberg. What a moron stasis
John C Dvorak: that should be on the normal news, don't you
think? Yes,
Adam Curry: it should be but no we can we can pitch a member of
Congress
John C Dvorak: so stupid to fall for this. I mean, if she was
keeping up with anything, she knows that Greta buggy back to
home base. And she's not in North Carolina. She didn't go to
North Carolina after the event in New York. The whole thing is
just ludicrous. And it shouldn't be regular news that that's
regular news story. No, I agree. No, no, no, because the news
media is so fraught with debit credit left wingers just to be
honest about it. They can't bring themselves to do these
stories. Yeah. Oh my god, it makes it look so stupid. I
refuse to run that story. This is Brittany again. On the
crooked Hillary campaign. This is fascinating.
Unknown: Can you talk about the
crooked Hillary campaign and how it developed?
Absolutely. So this started as a Super PAC that was built for Ted
Cruz keep the promise one, which was run by Kellyanne Conway and
funded by the Mercer's that was then
Adam Curry: she's she worked at Cambridge Analytica. And so,
Brittany, she's talking like a pundit. I mean, she's not
talking like someone who's been she's
John C Dvorak: on a book tour. And so she
Unknown: she wrote a book, okay, I guess run by Kellyanne Conway
and funded by the Mercer's that was then converted to becoming a
Super PAC for Donald Trump. They tried to register with the
Federal Election Commission, the name defeat, crooked Hillary,
and FEC luckily did not allow them to do that. So it was
called Make America number one. This super PAC was headed by
David Bossie, someone that you might remember from Citizens
United, basically, primary dark money into our politics and
allow
Adam Curry: dark money.
John C Dvorak: Dark politics before
Adam Curry: No never happened, ever seen it? No. It's racist,
that dark money? No, this is bullshit.
Unknown: But I like it brought dark money into our politics and
allowed this was on Democracy
Adam Curry: Now. Yeah. Did Amy jump in and say, Well, you know,
obviously, dark money has been in our politics for a long time
way. I mean, from day one, pretty much
Unknown: endless amounts of money to be funneled into these
types of vehicles.
Adam Curry: This is a total talking point, this woman's so
that we don't know
Unknown: where all of the money is coming from from these types
of manipulative communications. Oh, he was in charge of this
campaign. Now it's
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. This is great. Manipulative
communications. What do you think? That's what that's what
you do. That's all communications are all marketing
is manipulation.
Unknown: The money is coming from for these types of
manipulative communications. And he was in charge of this
campaign. Now, on that two day long debrief that I talked
about. And if you want to know more, you can read about it in
my book, they told
us and explain where you were and who was in the room.
So I was in New York, in our boardroom for Cambridge analytic
his office on Fifth Avenue. And all of our offices from around
the world had called in to video cast. And everybody from the
super PAC and the Trump campaign took us through all of their
tactics and strategies and implementation and what they had
done. Now, when we got to this defeat, crooked Hillary
SuperPAC, they explained to us what they had done, which was to
run experiments on psychographic groups to figure out what was
working and what wasn't. Unfortunately, what they found
out was the only very successful tactic was sending fear based
scare mongering messaging to people that were identified as
being neurotic. And it was so successful in their first
experiments that they spent the rest of the money from the super
PAC over the rest of the campaign. Only on negative
messaging.
Oh, no.
Do net Radek second
Adam Curry: negative advertising targeting Neeraj. I'd say it's a
crime almost. That is evil, evil, evil, evil flabbergast
people are neurotic and then you you sent in fear mongering
messages. Well, I mean, like clear and present danger the
President is a clear and present danger needs to be impeached
immediately because who knows what he could do you mean like
that? Is that is that are we talking about Brittany?
John C Dvorak: I think that's something like that. Guys,
unhinge. Yeah,
Adam Curry: just bend over here it comes again for you, sir.
Clinical, well deserved. Thank you. Back to the reptiles. Joe
Biden also had to virtue signal and in this case about
immigration and illegal immigrants residing in the
United States.
Unknown: I believe his
Adam Curry: first or second Ken wife and his daughter were
killed in a car accident, which is disputed, but I believe maybe
the driver of the truck was drunk. Do you recall any and I
tried to look it up. And there's different stories everywhere.
Like, you know, some say yes, some say no Biden definitely, at
some point said, you know, a guy who decided to drink his lunch
instead of eating it. So there's insinuation you
John C Dvorak: have to go back to the old newspaper reports to
see what's what,
Adam Curry: right. But the insinuation is that they were
killed by a drunk driver by Joe in the past. So here comes an
interesting question about illegal immigrants. They go off
Unknown: to school wondering whether when mom comes and picks
them up, is she not going to be there because a nice he was
there to arrest her. Or they take he she takes him to the
doctor, that she's going to not be there because she is quote,
undocumented and nice. He is going to pick them up. So how do
you change the culture, change the culture by saying you're
gonna get fired? You're fired. If in fact, you do that you only
arrest for the purpose of dealing with a felony that's
committed, and I don't count drunk driving as a felony.
Adam Curry: Wow, well, drunk driving is a felony in multiple
states. And doing it more than once will result in felony
charges. I found this to be pretty crazy. To go that far.
This is interesting.
John C Dvorak: I'm going to give you a clip of the day for that.
And I did that because it's such a great clip, because it does
introduce this factor why all of us? Just tell me I'm wrong about
this analysis. Wait, stop.
Adam Curry: Let me do my take my clip for the day first.
Otherwise, we forget these things?
John C Dvorak: Yes, true. So open it and forget it.
Unknown: I'm gonna show my school by donating to no agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be
fun.
John C Dvorak: Well, we have a different show. 1550, which is a
good show number. We have to put these donations off till the
next live show. Yes. And should it be 1551 or 5052? Hopefully
it's 50. It's 1551. Because that's a palindrome show. That's
Adam Curry: a big one. I have to be here for the Palindrome. I
know that I'm it's not going to be as bad as the first time. So
I have four days to recover. I know I'm going to be there. I'm
just going to be there. And even if you have to carry the show,
which will be a change for you.
John C Dvorak: I'm sorry. She will have to get used to that.
Forget as I'm not sure I'm gonna make it talk. You'll
Adam Curry: have your vacation. Calacanis here, no agendas
Kelheim. Elon Space X is great.
John C Dvorak: show these these clips of the day are dynamite.
Adam Curry: They really are. And Gustavo Raya, thank you again
executive producer, of course, along with along with us, but
executive producer First up in the title role, great job, I
mean that you're right. It is a labor of love. So appreciate
that. And of course, the show continues to roll on. We
appreciate all of the support that everyone gives us to
divorce.org/na s and we will be doing all of the all the
donations that came in for this show, along with anything that
comes in for 1551, which I'm sure will be great because
people love palindromes. We'll be doing that on the next show.
We'll do all of that live. So we'll have our our extra
extended Thank you segment.
John C Dvorak: So let's wrap this. Here we go
Adam Curry: last second and last part of the no agenda. Best of
clips of the day.
John C Dvorak: If you know people have stopped smoking,
they become nuts about it. Yeah, yes, very anti low carb. And
there's people that stop drinking, they become nuts about
what are you doing it all lugging a drink that stuff? If
you had somebody killed your wife that you've cried in public
over, and when your kids were killed by a drunk driver, this
wouldn't be something that would linger for them. You'd think
Yeah. So So Biden, when all of a sudden start passing off drunk
driving as a man, no big deal. Unless there was something more
to the original story.
Adam Curry: Right. Then there may be there may be I just I
just thought just to even say that there are a lot of families
out there who have suffered loss because of drunk drivers. And
then to say it's not a felony, by the way, ie you can't get
kicked out of the country for being here illegally and driving
drunk. To me. It's kind of like Yeah, yeah, yes, you should go.
Unknown: But not to Jarrell you should go
Adam Curry: not Oh, not to Joe not the Joe. Mayor Pete's have
John C Dvorak: a Tao is a very interesting clip.
Adam Curry: Thank you. Throughout this, this whole
impeachment trial in the Senate so far, it's all about the
process. And it's you know, Russia is my arch enemy and we
We really need It's America's national security, our interest
to make sure that Ukraine had the weaponry it needed and the
military assistance. So to date, the defense of that has been
real. Obama gave water and blankets and we gave tank
busters like the okay. But this is perhaps a better one,
Unknown: the facts of this case remain the same. And those facts
are Ukraine, in fact, received the security assistance and
there was no investigation into the Biden's. And a really
important point that I think you should all report for the
American people is that when it comes to supporting Ukraine
security assistance, three of the Democratic House managers
voted no, they voted in opposition of the US providing
defensive security assistance to Ukraine. Those members are Jerry
Nadler Zoe Lofgren and Hakeem Jeffries.
John C Dvorak: Wow, that's a tip of the day.
Adam Curry: That's a nugget right away. Hey, hold on a
second.
John C Dvorak: Nobody picks up on that stuff. That was
fantastic.
Adam Curry: I got a fun little ditty from Chuck Schumer who
went out and you know, he's really just listened to how he
how he treats with treats the media, when he's asked
questions, and this grand experiment we call democracy
will have been fatally fatally eroded because when Americans
lose faith that elections are fair when Americans lose faith
that it's Americans determining who elects the president rather
than a
Unknown: foreign power
Adam Curry: we got trouble one at a time
John C Dvorak: I thought this might be a clip of the day just
for the
Unknown: unexpected
Adam Curry: one at a time I thought possible it possible and
one at a time possible and to show ISO and listen to on czar
has a tell and a truth when it comes out moment wants to come
out moment in 39 seconds. We'll get the tail at the beginning
and then the truth wants to come out
Unknown: in the headline is Is the world ready for the
Coronavirus? How do you answer that question?
So had we've actually been very transparent about what we do not
know yet about about this virus? Wow.
Adam Curry: We've actually been very transparent.
Unknown: We've actually been very transparent about what we
do not know yet about, about this virus, which is we don't
know full information about its contagiousness about its
severity profile, which is why I'm delighted that at the
invitation of the Chinese government, we will accept the
invitation to participate as part of the World Health
Organization's team of experts that will deploy to China to
assist Chinese experts on the ground to actually get ground
truth to study this virus. Get all the information to both help
the spread prevent the spread further in China
that
is ground truth to study this virus. Get all the information
to both help the spread prevent the spread further in China, but
also global spread of this virus.
John C Dvorak: You got to clip it today for finding now
Adam Curry: I think I deserve in this case. A double whammy
that's
John C Dvorak: double you got to tell the cough and you got the
slip.
Adam Curry: Gotta help the spread, man. I mean my goodness,
John C Dvorak: dinner table conversation, we're talking
about some other aspects of this. Sorry. If they have a
clue. She's a brunette though. Now. This is what they do on
Court TV. Now as they got the following the Weinstein case
very closely, and they grabbed the by I guess you dig by the
transcript immediately after the testimonies. They get them from
the court recorders. And then they reenact the testimony with
some actors that do a pretty good job of of making you think
that you're hearing their real testimonies, even though this
Adam Curry: isn't just audio or do they do they reenact the
whole art is just Oh, that's good. That's cool.
John C Dvorak: And so here's a podcast that I flipped I clipped
a few things out of this is about two minutes. I clipped a
few things out because it would have been too long because
there's a lot of a lot of interruptions and they got to
the court to get the judge in there bitching and moaning and
but there's stuff in here that is truly disgusting.
Unknown: Describe what was happening to you and what your
interaction with him was
objection foundation judge ruled he would talk very dirty to me
about objection. Overruled fantasies
and things and compare me to other actresses that he said
we're doing kinky injection kinky, dirty things with him
judge can we approach overruled? No. He always wanted to film me
objection.
Did you ever give him permission to do that?
I never gave him permission.
Question and Answer stands. Next question. What the king? Well,
what's the relationship describe the relationship for the jury?
It would be basically him wanting to see me and just
needing a fix like a drug addict.
Objection sustained. What's
going on here? What would he say to you? All right.
Adam Curry: First of all, holy crap. This is a this should be a
podcast. I don't know what court TV's doing. But this is podcast,
double material right here. This is really good. We returned
Unknown: and just needing a fix like a drug addict. Objection
stain,
what's
going on here? What would he say to you? What would he do with
you? What would you say to him? What would you do with him?
He would say, do like my big fat, Jewish objection,
objection. Judge. May we approach okay,
if you would step down there for a moment?
Judge I'm asking that those answers be stricken and the
prosecutor be directed to move on Request
Denied. Next question.
Miss man, can you describe to the jury the defendants
physicality?
The first time I saw him fully naked objection
on relative
I thought objection. Overruled. I thought he was deformed and
intersex objection. He has an extreme scarring that I didn't
know if maybe he was a burn victim. But if wouldn't make
subjection, overrule he does not have testicles and it appears
like he has a vagina Objection
overruled. Does the defendant also have a penis

He does have a penis rolled.
Did you engage in non forcible sexual situations with the
defendant?
I engaged in non forcible oral sex with the defendant.
Did you desire him sexually
objection. She just testified she entered rules. No.
Why did you continue to have a relationship with Him?
There is a lot of layers to that question. Okay.
Next question. While you were in this situation with the
defendant, what were you feeling towards him?
I saw him the way I saw my father Objection overruled.
Next question.
In what way?
My dad had a similar anger objection
Adam Curry: rules move on.
Unknown: Did the defendant at times display anger to you?
Objection foundation? Yes. ruled.
In what way? Would he in what circumstances would he display
anger towards you
if he heard the word? No. It was like a trigger. Objection ruled
he objection rule he also he also peed on me once objection
foundation for rule. He would. It was it was like being
discarded after I served my purpose. Objection sustained.
Adam Curry: That I think this is fantastic. I do have a follow up
on this though. Regarding the state of his sexual organs as I,
by the way, because it's so disgusting. You only get a
borderline, but you do get that. Because it really brings the
quality of all clip of the days down to just like got her level.
I don't think I've seen Anderson Cooper so mad on air before. Can
you ever remember a time when Cooper was mad like just mad and
saying bullshit. And
John C Dvorak: you have a clip of it?
Unknown: Maybe he'll join me in the fight to reform our criminal
justice system. Over sentencing blacks and Latinos. Right. I
learned that when I was there.
John C Dvorak: Okay. Well, what's sad is that you hadn't
actually learned that when you mattered when you actually were
the governor, you work and you talked about working for the
criminal justice reform. There's a lot of people in Chicago,
there's a lot of people in Illinois, who actually like spit
up when you say that, because when you were actually
empowering when you were actually governor and you
Adam Curry: could have helped 1000s What do you think Cooper
is talking about there with a lot of people spit up when you
talk about that. And by the way, Anderson Cooper is of course,
part of the national security bureaucracy he was CIA's like
everyone knows that at least he was there part of the time. What
is what is his connection to all this that he's so mad and people
are spitting up? When they hear him talk like this? People use?
John C Dvorak: What you have to ask the question, what is Blago
saying that has set him off on this tangent of,
Adam Curry: of anger? What he said is that, no, I
John C Dvorak: know what he I mean, I understand what he said
technically. But what is What's it got to do with him? What's it
got to do with debt? So personal to Cooper?
Adam Curry: That is the right question
Unknown: case, and he blew it off. The governor after you
inherited a huge backlog nearly 3000 clemency petitions that you
failed to review. In fact, you were sued by by you were sued as
governor by Cabrini Green legal aid to try and pressure you to
actually We pay attention to clemency cases, instead of
extorting people for money and campaign contributions. So it's
a little ironic and frankly a little sad and pathetic and
hypocritical. You talking about, you know, commuting getting a
you get a commutation of a sentence, which is within the
President's right. But you ignored a whole hell of a lot of
other people who are hoping you might give them clemency when
you actually matter. So actually, there wasn't a person,
it was a statement, I'd be happy to work with people on criminal
justice reform, but I wouldn't work with you.
Adam Curry: And then why? Why does Cooper all of a sudden say
he's happy to work with a politician? He's happy to work
with POC toys.
John C Dvorak: It used to be he's and he's supposed to be a
journalist host. I'm
Adam Curry: telling you this, this, this is someone who's been
told to take this boy down is what's going on. Oh, yeah,
John C Dvorak: you're right. Okay.
Unknown: Can I answer that?
Adam Curry: Oh, this is what it is. And question.
Unknown: Okay. I don't like to address that. When you've been
put where I was. And you have all the time that I was given to
think and look back on some of the things you might have done
different. That's certainly an area that you talked about, that
I certainly wish I would have done more on. There's no
question about that. We're not among my biggest regrets. I
didn't know how corrupt the criminal justice system was
until it did it to me.
Adam Curry: Oops, oops, oops, oops, this is pooper at this
point. His mouth is scrunched up, his eyes are spitting fire.
Unknown: And that was a wake up call. Having said that, I want
to say one thing about me as governor, when the cases came to
me, and I was given files about people who were seeking clemency
or pardons. I acted appropriately actually
John C Dvorak: sued. I mean, that is when
Unknown: I did clemencies And I did pardons I didn't didn't do
nearly enough. It wasn't a priority, I would acknowledge
that I didn't go to the office every day doing that. Instead, I
was giving health care to all the children. Reputation to our
seniors and the disabled. So
you and I regret that early, much money to hospitals in order
to get campaign contributions. But
to see that stuff that that's a big lie. They got $8 million
from me, and prison times they got it after you I promise it. I
ordered it before that happened and it didn't Did they got it
while I was governor. That is not factual.
Okay. Governor Blagojevich, I do wish you the best. I really am
glad for your family that you're out. And I don't know, by
the way, you're asking me questions. I don't know, I
honestly appreciate you. But just
John C Dvorak: honestly, I just look, I have no problem. You
getting out? I think, you know, the President can be whoever you
want. I just think I wish, you know, you're besmirching
prosecutors who actually are no longer in government. But you
know, prosecutors are important in our system. And you're going
after the very basis of our justice system, which has plenty
of problems. But you know, part of the thing is you got out, you
do have an obligation to at least admit what you did wrong.
And you refuse to do that. And you're creating a whole new
alternate universe of facts. And that may be big in politics
today. But it's still, frankly, just bullshit.
Unknown: Apple shit, I lived it myself. It's not at all.
Adam Curry: So Anderson is now the hero of prosecutors, hero of
the jump protectors date,
John C Dvorak: you have to be reminded that had a slew of
people on death row and two or three young journalists. I
happen to know one of them went in there as a project, I think
at the University of Illinois or one of the schools. And they
discovered that all these cases were all bullcrap cases and a
judge had to release a ton of people from the Illinois prison
system for phony baloney prosecutions that we're all all
crooked. So this
Adam Curry: is why Oh, of course got to protect those guys. Let's
not drag anything up. It's quite disappointing. Although fine,
just
John C Dvorak: find it fascinating and give you 10
points I'll give you I'll give you a clip of the day for that.
Oh, you're
Adam Curry: just you're just trying to make me feel good.
John C Dvorak: Like as you've been snacking, just lips.
Adam Curry: I got cottonmouth What can I tell you? cotton
mouth? It's
John C Dvorak: like I'm sorry. Take a drink of Yeah, couldn't
Adam Curry: drink. I've been drinking decaf coffee from a
plastic machine.
John C Dvorak: Well, we do have you know, we do have sources
that say that. Pete was never gay in Harvard.
Adam Curry: Yeah, it wasn't gay until
John C Dvorak: they had a meeting with him and his
buddies.
Unknown: They had a meeting and then he was gay.
John C Dvorak: They had a meeting in Malta, which is known
CIA kind of clandestine meeting spot. And he comes out of the
Malta meeting. And he's gay.
Adam Curry: I think it's after you met Dick pound.
John C Dvorak: Pound was came later. Kay came later so the guy
is very sketchy character. And but he's done because I mean,
next to Bloomberg is like a small town guy. I understand
what they were trying to do and they make him the new Obama and
maybe that's why they wanted him to be gay. Because when he did
this, that's, that's what I'm saying. Exactly. Yeah. Because
they needed a minority, you know, they was should be a
minority that whoever in the CIA came up with the gay idea. I
think that was a mistake. Here's the Pete and the gay pill clip.
Adam Curry: Okay, hold on. I was leaning back.
Unknown: If you could, if there was a pill. There's a pill that
I can take and not be gay anymore. I would have jumped on.
Adam Curry: When did you say this? When did he say this?
John C Dvorak: This was recently because that he's got my
Adam Curry: God. Now this never heard this one. No. Oh, and play
it again for the whole thing. Oh, my God,
Unknown: if you could, if there was a pill. There's a pill that
I can take and not be gay anymore. I would have jumped on.
And thank God I didn't because I would not have the amazing
marriage that that I have now to to Jasper. And
Adam Curry: now, here's Wow. I'm confused by his use of past and
present tense. The day well hold on you you're gonna get a P
people who ask our skips. In Holland, we say many frogs were
to over Slava translates to when you ask you get skipped. Let me
just do
John C Dvorak: this typical Dutch, by the way,
Unknown: if you could, if there was a pill, there's a pill that
I can take and not be gay anymore. I would have jumped on
it. And thank God I didn't because
Adam Curry: wow. Well, I I do not understand why the LGBTQ Qi
APK community is not outraged by this.
John C Dvorak: Well, a couple of things. First of all, yeah,
you're right. There's a mixed.
Adam Curry: Definitely, if you're saying when I was a kid,
I was so I was so freaked out. I was so confused because I take
an anti gay pill. Okay, but that's not exactly the way it
came out. And it just and it
John C Dvorak: did this this was a visual, they cut to his
husband and he had a look on his face like
it was not a good look.
Adam Curry: Here. Gilead is working on that.
Unknown: anti gay pill. Pete.
John C Dvorak: I think I think this is
Adam Curry: in the world of gayness in the world of gayness.
What.
John C Dvorak: I don't know what he was thinking to say that he
just and you could tell he was stammering here but
Adam Curry: in the world of gayness I think that most people
I know and love would say What a dumb as shit thing to say. That
just it seems like counterintuitive to the whole
message that he's portrayed supposed
John C Dvorak: to say something pants would say. Yeah, yeah,
exactly. All right. So anyway, I thought that was kind of
revealing.
Adam Curry: I have a few random clips that Tom Starkweather sent
to me. Well, I
John C Dvorak: got one more out of the debates. Okay. One second
ISO. One this was not this is not a good clip. But it was
suggested by one of our producers, and I heard it and I
said, I'll clip it, see if it works, but it doesn't work as
well as I'd like. This is the Barack Obama was abroad. You
clip
Unknown: Barack Obama was abroad.
Adam Curry: No, it doesn't work.
John C Dvorak: You can't clip it tight enough. It's not funny.
No, it's not fun.
Adam Curry: Okay, here is just some random clips. Amy
Klobuchar,
Unknown: because I know the vaccine is out there in the head
of some kid right now in school in Columbia, South Carolina, or
Houston, Texas. And it's investing in education.
Adam Curry: No, Amy, we already knew Gilead was going to solve
all your problems, to know Bloomberg as a favorite of the A
das community.
Unknown: And I know a lot of black people that if they were
white, it would have been a lot easier for them.
Adam Curry: I know a lot of black people. It's just not a
you don't start sentences like that if you're trying to appeal
to everybody. Bloomberg again,
Unknown: but right now, I'm sorry if she heard what she
thought she heard or whatever happened. I didn't take any
pleasure in that.
Adam Curry: Okay. And here's
Unknown: Pete, I'll tell you what the Russians want. They
don't have a political party. They want chaos. And chaos is
what is coming our way.
Adam Curry: Okay. And Warren, I talked to
Unknown: people in selfie lines every day.
Adam Curry: No, she's an amazing woman. She talks to people in
selfie lines every single day.
John C Dvorak: I want to say something about that. By the
way, that's the stupidest thing I've heard in the whole debate.
I talked to people in selfie lines. Yeah. Yeah. In other
words, people that's what she talks to that's for that sort of
source of information dared lie. made up to take a selfie. At the
end of the debates. Joe went down and mingled with the
audience and hats and was doing selfie after selfie. You had a
phone
Adam Curry: 1800 A $200 See donors that's not just an
audience of course he's gonna go down there and talk
John C Dvorak: Oh, that's there you go. That's right I forget
that element. But but the thing I noticed is that Joe no matter
what phone they gave him knew how to do cell.
Adam Curry: Wow, his arm piling out. You're piling on man.
That's really bad. And by the way, unlike you, I remember to
give you your clip of the day.
John C Dvorak: Sir John Well deserved.
Adam Curry: I'm not like you that tries to get away with not
playing it. You mentioned you're the man with the button. I do
have another kind of odd example. Yeah, Biden. He's
talking about I got a couple of Biden's to for you know, throw
this one out. Then we'll switch over the last
Unknown: point. If you take a look at it. China, China's China
and there's not I'm not happy about China doesn't have enough
water wa t er. They're talking about spending 10s of billions
hundreds of billions of dollars to try to turn around the river
so their population have potable water to drink. 40% of their
land is fluid cadmium, they can't grow things are in a
situation where they have 2 million Uyghurs Muslims to
prison camps in the mountains. You saw a tent you see what's
happening in Hong Kong. And now what they're trying to do with
regard to Thailand, folks, the idea the idea that they are
competition they're gonna beat us in
Adam Curry: bizarre Wow, Joe Wow, Joe. When it's water wa T E
R why why did he spell what what? what possibly could I
confuse water with? Or is he just doing like he was like kind
of like
John C Dvorak: giving you a board like Tip of the day for
that fine.
Adam Curry: Hip Hop guy. Joe to the beaker my wa T Oh what? I
don't know what he's doing.
John C Dvorak: What's he talking about? I
Adam Curry: don't know but I it's so it's I really feel
uncomfortable about it
yah, yah yah yah yah yah yah yah yah yah yah yah yah, yah, yah.
This did not sit well at all with the proto typical the proto
Ground Zero Bernie bro. Very, very upset and call and talk of
war. Actual war is now on the table. Can you surmise who I'm
speaking of?
John C Dvorak: Jory read.
Adam Curry: Close chunk, chunk, chunk,
John C Dvorak: chunk, chunk huger.
Adam Curry: And he was pissed. Maybe
Unknown: we thought we look at a week ago I would have told you I
didn't tell you Super Tuesday. I think we got this. Remember
we're talking about whispering trim. I think it might be over
on Super Tuesday. So I'm not saying this on behalf of TYT or
anything like that. We thought it was almost over Bernie was
going to win. Now it's not over now. We're in a tie. And now we
got absolute diggin warfare against the establishment. But
we didn't start the war. They'll lie about it again. We didn't
start the war. They started the war. They been lying about
Bernie Sanders. For God's sake on Castro. I could give you 1000
examples. Bernie Sanders said the same exact thing as Obama.
Everyone on TV is lie like, Oh my God, what an outrageous
thing. Bernie Sanders said. Obama said the same thing. No
getting shut up. Don't cover don't cover don't cover. Obama
said the same thing. Is Obama pro Fidel Castro. Same exact
thing. God dammit tell the truth. God dammit tell the
truth. If you're not gonna do it, we're gonna do it. Okay. And
so you want to go to war, we'll go to war. And that is what this
is. We cannot let Biden win guys, not just on progresses
versus establishment. This is so important. I need you to
understand this. Biden is not going to beat Trump. Biden is
either near senile, or actually senile watch any of the tapes.
And Biden lies nonstop. He's gonna get caught. He's okay. The
media is covering for him, but they're not going to be able to
cover when the Republicans come for him. And when Trump comes
for him, he's not gonna beat Trump. The establishment
candidate is less likely to beat Trump anyway, we just had 2016
establishment can be lost. Doofus like Trump, and now here
we go an establishment candidate that is far worse, with mental
his mental faculties under question. His record worse than
Hillary Clinton's. He lives 1000 times more than Hillary Clinton
did, right? And you're gonna run that guy, it gets Trump and
we're gonna lose to Trump again and maybe lose our democracy.
Hell no. Hell no. No Bernie Sanders. He's going to win this
race. And I'm telling you right now, and it's not just hey, we
got to go fight. It's also a prediction. Biden is not capable
of winning this and I'm we're not doing a brokered convention
where they give it to someone who didn't get less votes not
going to happen. Bernie Sanders is going to be the nominee. I'm
telling you right now. Yes.
Adam Curry: So a couple things. One. Yeah, I feel bad for giving
you
John C Dvorak: a clip of the day for that when you're done with
your talk.
Adam Curry: Oh, I'll take it right now, if you don't mind. I
hate to forget, it's like I sometimes deluded. Who do you
think has the better relationship with the unions? Is
that should be Bernie I would presume, right?
John C Dvorak: There's no evidence of this. Biden is old
school Democrat, old union guy. I'll tell you why I speak about
big unions. Yeah.
Adam Curry: I'm talking to United United Auto Workers. Is
that big?
John C Dvorak: It's as big as it is. Yes. Okay. The biggest. So
this has been a member twice. I might might add. Well, this
Adam Curry: is so here's my question. I find it incredibly
coincidental that after five years, five years, they've been
working on this case, just four days, but with a weekend four
days before the primary in Michigan. We have this story.
The United States at Michigan Of course, Detroit, Michigan, Motor
City,
Unknown: the United States of America is charging Mr. Jones
with one count of conspiracy to embezzle union funds, and
conspiracy to aid racketeering activity.
Adam Curry: This is the former United Auto Workers chief who
has been indicted for this for the horrible crimes listen to
them,
Unknown: in one count of conspiracy to defraud the United
States by failing to pay taxes on over $1 million that he and
his cohorts stole from the UAW. The allegations are that in
connection with his UAW roles, Mr. Jones conspired with other
UAW officials to steal over $1 million in UAW money and
property. Instead of that cash and property going to help the
men and women of the Union. Mr. Jones spend it on his own
personal enjoyment and on the whims of other high ranking
union officials. Mr. Jones, together with UAW officials,
Vance Pearson, and Edward Robinson spent UAW money on
items that the workers of the Union could scarcely afford.
These improper expenses were completely unrelated to Union
business, such as luxury condos and villas and California,
lavish dinners at expensive restaurants, premium liquor,
five sets of custom made golf clubs specially designed by a
golf pro, horseback riding on the beach.
Adam Curry: Now, there's a couple more in here, but yes, I
found that here in the United Auto Workers endorsed Bernie
Sanders. So what would I add? The way I read this is, this is
Bernie Sanders, you really want this is the guy who works with
these people. But these people is your unions. You want Oh,
this is horrible. And look at what they're doing. They're
there. And I love the specification of these horrible
crimes
Unknown: designed by a golf pro, horseback riding on the beach,
over $100,000 In golf, green fees, golf clothing, sunglasses,
and tips for caddies trips, over $60,000 in high end cigars,
cumin doors, and cigar paraphernalia. Over $8,000 In
spa treatments for UAW officials and their spouses, and much,
much more.
Adam Curry: I'm thinking we got to find us a union sounds like
party.
John C Dvorak: This is really a great clip.
Adam Curry: They're doing this to screw Bernie. Let's let's
John C Dvorak: let's analyze that for a moment in the golf
the emphasis on golf of course, is elitist Trump. Yep. Oh, yeah.
Trump. Yeah. This is like elitist to Trump by horseback
riding on the beach. This is what this is not what a union
man would do. It's just sewing from the feet it would
Adam Curry: have been would have been better if he said romantic
horseback rides on the beach.
John C Dvorak: But this is this is part of the of the I would
it's kind of like a reverse smear. To make Bernie a an
elitist ideology and all these socialists they want to take
your money and they're going to use it for their own pleasure.
And which is what you wanted to kind of bargain that you want to
sell people into to kill this idea of socialists being
anything but assholes stealing your money. And then they there
was they're driving around the big luxury cars, and they're
making you do all the work and tips, tips for caddies and tips
for caddies. That's so so this is a this is really and again it
would end a party that would be tight with the a lot of
dimensions that are the the upper echelons of the Democrats
and that this would be the way to go. This is a fantastic clip.
And you're right is is all about Bernie is all about embarrassing
Bernie in some awkward way after once they gave the endorsement
to Bernie. There's no reason the UAW should endorse Bernie by the
way that I can tell there's nothing connected.
Adam Curry: And when one of us has a really great clip and the
other one appreciates it. What do we do?
John C Dvorak: Well, what we do usually, but but as you
mentioned one time ago, that if somebody actually asked
Adam Curry: daddy frog to overclock them, if you ask you
get skipped. All right, well, you're mean.
John C Dvorak: Give yourself the Clip of the Day.
Adam Curry: Thank you. Everyone's calling for it, man.
I mean, if anything, you got to be worried about this stuff and
era. This is what it is.
Unknown: And the COVID 19 pandemic could lead to a ban on

I tightened it up and I realized that it would work really well
for audio. At least that's how I felt about it this morning. This
is a super cut a compromise if you will, of every single big
brand Coronavirus, commercial running on television right now.
Did you see this thing? Nope. Okay, good because it'll work.

unprecedented moment in our history is time of social
distancing while things have slowed down. As we turn more
notice, uptempo doors may be closed while the distance
between us has gotten bigger, the more we
stay apart,
we still find ways to stay close.
Even when we're apart.
Even if we can't stand closer than six feet. There's still
ways to touch each other,
all without leaving the comfort and safety of your home without
leaving the safety of your home from home.
Adam Curry: Your home and home home stay home slash home home.

skateboarding in the house. And now we have to clap. We have to
clap for the first responders and for the nurses of the

And you've probably seen every single one of those, and that is
what has been programmed into your foot
John C Dvorak: down, run together.
Adam Curry: Who put it together? Right? I have it in the show
notes somewhere who put it together? Well, I'm
John C Dvorak: gonna give you a clip of the day for finding it.
Adam Curry: Thank you. There's also there's another is
John C Dvorak: a real that is a fabulous clip.
Adam Curry: It really works.
John C Dvorak: I mean, it's just because it's so it's so
manipulative. It is incredibly it's it's stupid, manipulative,
it's actually evil.
Adam Curry: And here's Pelosi and Pelosi was on with was
Pelosi with. Well, let me see. But you'll get the idea. It's
only a short clip. That timetable
Unknown: because when I heard Mitch on the floor the other
day, he was saying we have all these things.
Adam Curry: This was Pelosi doing a little presser actually.
And she's angry at Mitch McConnell and angry at the
president but listen to what she's angry for.
Unknown: Want to review that timetable? Because when I heard
Mitch on the floor the other day, he was saying we have all
these things in here that we asked for. Now you reject it.
Now you rejected it. Speaking of Mitch, What's gotten into him?
Well, it's an indication the President is asking people to
inject Lysol into their lungs, and literally saying
Adam Curry: the President is asking people to inject Lysol
into their wounds. I thought you hyperventilated for a moment
there.
John C Dvorak: I realize I'm surprised they didn't do have a
heart attack. given you a clip of the day for finding out when
I never heard that horrible witch well beside before you go
on because it Pelosi did say something there on the interest
rates will never get lower. Let's play another Trump clip
from his when his little meeting there. Trump on negative
interest rates turned Holliday
Unknown: said that he wasn't interested in bringing interest
rates negative and that he saw a need for additional stimulus
from Congress. I know that you said we could wait and see on
stimulus and that you you want negative rates so
well I'm a believer in negative rates only if other countries
that are competitors look Germany they're an ally they're
friends of ours but they're still competitors on trade and
other things so Germany Japan others have negative rates and I
think if they do we're the most prime of the world you know
where it's based in many countries based on the dollar
the dollar is by far the strongest most powerful currency
in the world we've made it more powerful we've made it stronger
and certainly if they're going to have the advantage of
negative rates we should do I feel strongly we should have
negative rates negative rates is basically where they pay you
interest if you borrow money this is a new one. I've been
looking for something like that all my life that's a pretty good
one. But certainly if other countries are going to be paid
for putting out money I mean, think of it they're borrowing
money or instead of paying interest in getting paid what's
the craziest thing but you know what other countries are doing
it look at Germany look at Japan look at others and we're the
most prime in the world right now. And we have this we have
the currency and we have we have the power of the dollar
Adam Curry: Wow. Wow, just step the hell back and take this one.
Click I can kidding. So Trump is all in on the negative interest
rates Well, there you go.
John C Dvorak: Not always Yeah, he wants he wants it doesn't
want it and Pelosi is full of shit when she says it won't go
any lower the
Adam Curry: right the end is near. Oh my god. So well. Of
course from his perspective, we're not competitive with our
rates so we have to go to negative interest rates. That's
gonna be fun.
John C Dvorak: Now you're the guy came out some time ago to
saying that this tiger King thing is going to be the big hit
Nola risk. I
Adam Curry: think that was right. It was the hit of the of
the icon
John C Dvorak: a reviewer? Yeah, that I think nails it. And it
also produced an Number of ISOs that will work out we liked
that. And this review was very famous. You might recognize,
recognize him by his voice. But let's play Tiger King review.
Unknown: Hey, Twitter. Well, yours truly I just got back from
the golf course where I actually played pretty well. Oh, J now
it's back at home back to the couch back to television.
Listen, I've had so many people in my case asked me to watch
some show call. Tiger key. Well, yesterday I watched the show.
And oh my god is America in this bad shape? I watched about six
episodes of this show and I couldn't even believe what I was
looking at White people. What's what you were while animals
leave them animals alone?
Adam Curry: Never seen Mike Tyson. Oh, Jay.
Unknown: The show is crazy. But it's so crazy. You kind of keep
watching one thing I will say there's not a shred of doubt in
my mind that that lady's husband is a tiger she me right now. I'm
just saying take care of something better to watch. Wow.
Peak ironi on
Adam Curry: OJ blaming the woman Carol. Hey, big cats and
kittens, blaming Carol on feeding her husband killing her
husband. The irony is boiling oil you know just because it's
it's OJ so it's it's like shooting in front of an open
goal. So I think borderline is appropriate.
But it's not just MSNBC Fox Business News, Neil Cavuto. He
seems to like the death thing himself. Listen closely. It's
the numbers, listen closely
Unknown: extensively to spiking cases is not coming with a spike
in depth. Sadly enough. That's the one thing that's a big word.
It's not extensively the spiking cases is not coming with a spike
in depth. Sadly enough. That's the one thing to look at.
Because that's a big worry.
John C Dvorak: What sadly yeah. He said sadly enough in regards
to the death toll,
Adam Curry: yes. Yes. Sad. Sad. I wish I could report more death
and destruction. I just
John C Dvorak: like his numbers. I just That's pathetic.
Adam Curry: Just don't have it. I'm so sorry. By
John C Dvorak: where I'm giving you a clip of the day for that
because I'm so
Adam Curry: Hey, Monica.
John C Dvorak: Do we already do this? Oh, I can't stop. Stop it.
No agenda. Stop it. That'd be
awesome new gear people
Adam Curry: What the heck just happened? Oh, my goodness. That
was that was a Tourette's? No, no, man. That was a MIDI
control, freak out. Hold on a second. All I wanted was my clip
for the day. And now that won't even play. Don't worry. If
you're listening to this on the live stream, it'll never make it
to the show. I'll clip it all out. Now you want to good, it's
good. But I can't get it to fire now.
John C Dvorak: But then you don't get it back.
Adam Curry: Right. But I don't know if anything else works
either. No, doesn't like
John C Dvorak: the whole thing is dead. Well,
Adam Curry: maybe this will help. If I just jiggle the
handle. Maybe Maybe it'll come back to life. But all right. So
I'll have to earn my Clip of the Day. Again, then we have coming
out of the woodworks senior executive of a Texas emergency
room chain when he posted this publicly on Twitter. And this
has been picked up by mobile, the Gateway Pundit woohoo. Let
me just tell you what he says. Where are we? Oh, crap. I've
lost my spot here. Oh, this is mainly about the hospital ICUs.
And there's and I have actually clipped to go with this. What
we're hearing now is we have an increase. So yes, deaths are not
following the cases, even though these cases are super inflated,
because we now know there could be a factor of 15 of contact
traces that are added to this cases list. And even this I
mean, I don't know is that really true? Is that what
they're doing? It's I saw the document they showed it on the
in the city council meeting. I presume that's what's happening.
But then we have the deaths. Well, that Pete There are more
people dying. I mean, it's not like last month and it's it is
increasing. It's not Not exactly like the beginning where the
where the deaths were following the cases, but there are people
dying and it's more than last month. Well, there's an
explanation for that.
Unknown: Hospitals on health care workers, paramedics and
doctors and nurses. It's really taking a toll on the nation in
the health care system in general, especially, you know,
with the increasing number of hospitalizations and cases, it
puts a strain during July which is a very important time of the
year because we tend to see more deaths in the month of July
because of the new health care professionals that are entering
the residency program so we've got a lot to do it comes down to
simply wait wait, wait wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait, wait, you're about to make something really important point
about mass but what did you tell me? You just said that in the
month of July you see death rates increase because you've
got new students medical, you know, professionals coming
online. Sure.
What is so yes, lies when Yes. It's
Adam Curry: not so much that that's the fact but you know,
this is a medical professional going this sure shouldn't. It's
not like she's horrible. Fact. Sure. Sure. Students, medical
professionals coming online for sure. What is so yes,
Unknown: lies when Yes, July is typically the month where we
have people who get paid doctors, they graduate medical
school and they enter residency. So sometimes we tend to see
increase in the rate of medical errors and deaths. That's
something that you know, is well known in the medical field. So
that just goes to show you the burning of this isn't
Adam Curry: that incredible to hear that you get
John C Dvorak: a clip of the day?
Adam Curry: We did it? Yes. And it works.
John C Dvorak: That was a phenomenal clip.
Adam Curry: Children Stop it on all sides. Children Stop it
tears can only come for everybody. No.
John C Dvorak: Oh, by the way. There's tears Those tears were
violence. I have the I have a violence. Oh, you didn't know
this? No help. So I went to the blocked and reported site web
podcast and there was a woman on there who had an early
experience with the white fragility chick
Adam Curry: Hold on What is the blocked and reported
John C Dvorak: talked about? This is a Katie Hodgkins
wherever name is and it's a black report. These are the guys
that are tracking. The you know, the social cancellation, you
know being canceled. Cancel, cancel.
Adam Curry: Okay, this we've talked about this podcast. I've
had clips for you. Yes, I recall now. Okay, gotcha, gotcha
blocks.
John C Dvorak: She's got this woman on who rent who? Who was
an early company.
Adam Curry: I'm already giddy. I can't help it.
John C Dvorak: The woman comes I don't believe me. This could
have I could have play an hour. But I just got to one cup. I
just want to because I can now summarize most of it. She She
was part of a theater group that was doing a Black play. And
apparently the N word was in the play. But it was because it was
a sensitive audience to somebody dropped it out. And at some
stage guy, stage manager in the back on a microphone were
supposed to say, then they use the word right there on the
spot. And it brought the place into a tizzy because because
somebody sent the word. And so they had to bring this woman in
who was doing this, do this, get these gigs where she comes in
and lectures you about how you're insensitive and that's
where that little bombshell happens at the end of this
report. You can play it
Unknown: what happened to lead to your introduction to Robin
D'Angelo,
Robin D'Angelo was brought on board at the company as a racial
sensitivity consultant. After we had an incident regarding the N
word, and it got really, really heated. There was some publicity
about it even in like the local press and one of my
organization's like immediate responses about the whole thing
was that we were going to start it on this like EDI, journey,
and EDI that stands for equity, diversity and inclusion.
And so can you give me a little bit more detail about the
incident so was this Did someone call someone else the N word?
Was it like that? Or was it more like a sort of micro aggression?
Well, that
would have been really awful, right? If someone called someone
the N word, it was not that it was. A stagehand was on was like
miked into like the back stage, mic system. And the stagehand
asked a question. This is reportedly what happened like I
wasn't there. This is this is the story is that the stage had
asked a question about what they had just heard in the script,
being spoken online. The play at the time that was being
performed was like a mostly black cast. It was a play about,
like the African American experience and this that
neighborhood in New York City. And I guess there's like a pause
in the script where the character sort of implies a word
that's not said. And the stagehand basically asked into
the mic, did she just say the N word. But the stagehand said the
N word. And it got out that that was said, because there was like
an intercom system. And so the cast heard the N word being
said, and then all hell broke loose. There's accusations that
the company like didn't initially handle it correctly,
that there was some apology from the stagehand to the cast for
saying the word out loud. But the apology like wasn't enough
for or they had issues with sort of how that was handled. And
then there was a big all staff meeting held about it so that it
could like all be aired out in the open and that was that was
that staff meeting was like, unlike anything I had seen. It
was a fucking shit show. Katie, tell me about lots of crying
tears definitely a lot of white tears but we didn't have Robin
yet telling us that white tears were island, so we just didn't
know.
Adam Curry: And, and the second edible had just kind of hit
John C Dvorak: white tears or violence.
Adam Curry: I'm writing it down. I mean, just for myself. Yeah.
Oh, my goodness. This is and it's and it's that is the
D'Angelo that is the white fragility lady. She's up in her
game.
John C Dvorak: So I have a few clips in there just kind of
snippets of the kinds of things that were going on at this
meeting. Including, I'm going to start with Okay, let's start
with this one. Okay, they start yelling at each other. There's a
Latino, the vice president comes in and he's really or this guy,
by the way, walked out on the meeting, even though it's a Zoom
meeting, disguise, a Latin X, VP. And he goes after and he's
really mad because there have been yelling at each other.
Let's go with this edu meeting Latino VP goes after social
justice warrior.
Adam Curry: Okay, nonsense.
Unknown: That doesn't make a child learner. That doesn't
teach a poor kid. Anything. Okay, so let's proceed before
you start making accusations about me about my one vote. If
you want to get to know me, you ought to sit down and have lunch
with me. You don't know very many Latino people, and you
don't have lunch with them. Perhaps you don't know very many
poor blacks to understand. So before you make these
conclusions and draw these, the these assumptions, but
Adam Curry: what assumptions had she made about him?
John C Dvorak: This part of it was not on the original clips.
She demeaned him in an in an act in an accidental way. And she
was just going off on everybody that we're talking about this
one woman who's going to come in after he berates her. And you
have to imagine her she's kind of a sizable young woman with a
big breasts. And she's, and she's one of these types that
she has a Lavell ear that she's holding in front of her mouth,
my favorite scene. So wrong idiots with Lavell ears they
think is a standard mic or something
Unknown: that I think
Adam Curry: it's actually I think it's actually one of those
phone like for a for a mobile phone, an older version of a
mobile phone, we have kind of a control unit and the microphone.
That's part of the wire, and she's plugged that into her
computer, apparently, so she's yelling into us holding that
thing over to her mouth like a like an idiot.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, okay. Finish.
Unknown: You want to get to know me. And you know, I'd like to
get to know you. I'd like to get to know Tino. But for some
reason, I don't deserve to say. And that's all I have to say.
And I agree and I support Maude Marone. And I support what she's
doing with the nice of grant and the integration effort. And I'm
sure that we can get there if you just let her work. And if
you in good faith, reach out to her and to others that don't
happen to disagree with your hollow and shallow diversity of
pronouncements. Thank you very much. Actually, Eric, can I
please jump in?
And I'd like to give
I want to say something because I worry about my name.
One day,
you're gonna give me a space to apologize. You want to
acknowledge that you're calling out the one vote was an example
of white privilege. And it was an example of trying to silence
the legitimacy of your space on this council. That was rising,
Edward, I'm apologizing and you don't have to accept my apology.
And I work everyone has worked to do
Adam Curry: work to do. I have work to do
Unknown: 40 plus years of white supremacy I need to undo. That
was unfair of me to make that point. And I don't want to
silence your voice, and your voice has merit, Edward. And I
did, I did sit with you, at the before we before this Council
started, and I would talk to you again. And I'm sorry that and I
acknowledge that my words hurt you.
Adam Curry: So this is I think, around page 26 of the industrial
society and its future also known as the Unabomber
manifesto, where he speaks of this over socialization, where
everybody is going to offend everybody in some way all the
time. And this is the result. Add add to that the
technological component of a zoom call, which just screws up
life's call together into your future.
John C Dvorak: Play console bickering, apologize, more, more
Adam Curry: cheese, this is so much better than the clips I
would have made. So I'm glad you did that. Because I didn't see
any of this part of it. This is dynamite.
Unknown: One of the things we should all learn to do. And I'm
learning to do this. When somebody tells you that you did
something wrong. The first thing to do is reflect on that. And
then apologize. Nuts. Okay, even if you don't agree, you
apologize. That's what Robin did. Oh, that is what you do.
When somebody says you did something wrong. And you hurt
them. You're supposed to say I'm sorry. And that's how that
works. Tom. Some people said you hurt them. You'd may not agree,
but the least you can do is I'm sorry. I hurt you. That is what
grownups do. Oh, so
call Tom not grown up now. Is that what you're saying?
Well, you can be the judge of it. What do grownups do when
somebody said, You hurt me and you don't apologize? Wow.
Adam Curry: And these people are indirectly involved with the
education of your children.
John C Dvorak: The Joker this by the way, this guy Tom who she's
targeting. I don't have any clips from him because he's too
reasonable. Finally, she makes this assertion so Tom comes on
and says okay, well, then I felt hurt that you condemned me
there. I want your apology. No one would apologize to him. The
apology is only go one way. Oh,
Adam Curry: I see. So no one. My
John C Dvorak: no would apologize to Tom because Tom is
a dick apparently. So they didn't like that. So that's the
bickering apologies. And then we had this kind of shaved head
Asian woman. And this is just doing the work. Clip, which is
which is the key word I want people to realize that the code
word is doing the work. Good means reading that stupid book.
By
Adam Curry: the way, I can incorporate this into my
sentence. Excuse me? Are you? Have you not done the work? Are
you? Are you? Are you using your privilege?
John C Dvorak: And I'm gonna get to that. The parallel of that
this is slick. Or after the two clips,
Adam Curry: we are we are learning good stuff here. People
Unknown: done my own work. And some of you have done. I'd like
to speak. I have a lot to say, but I'll keep it short. This
just illustrates to me the need for anti racism training.
Because some of you definitely including myself, actually, I
would say all of us don't have the language to really talk
about this in a way that's constructive and productive and
growth oriented. And I have done my own work. And some of you
have done work with the CDC. Marisol hosted courageous
conversations and some of you attended. Clearly, we need more
of it. And that was really the intent of my letter to you,
Lord, I don't see you doing the work.
Adam Curry: Oh, my goodness. Whoa, just homeless second, I
don't care. but just you can't say anything that was without a
doubt that was a glitch. I cannot believe I can't sadly, I
can't believe this, but this has to stop. The tears will come
people. This will not end well. And it's so this this is
destructive. This is destroying people and what's it what good
is it doing anybody? So it's not just the consulate in Houston.
That has a problem. It seems we have an issue in San Francisco
as well.
Unknown: And this investigation stems from a move by the Trump
administration earlier this year to go after researchers who are
here in the United States on student visas but have proven
ties to the Chinese military. This woman named Duan Tang was a
researcher at UC Davis. Her visa application stated that she
never served in the military, but the FBI claims and
investigation revealed pictures of her in a type of uniform from
the People's Liberation Army. A further search at her home
allegedly revealed evidence on her electronics of her
affiliation according to the FBI, and they say that on June
20, she went into the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco where
she has been ever since. Two more students were named in the
court documents Chang song was charged with visa fraud. She
researched neurology at Stanford University. Her 2018 visa
application claimed that she ended military service in 2011.
But the FBI says that she is in fact a PLA member, saying Wang
was a researcher at UC students. During an interview on June 7,
he admitted to being an active duty member in the PLA. They
claimed that he was instructed by his supervisor in China to
copy the layout of the UCSF lab to replicate it when they got
back home. And that his devices found studies from UCSF that
they allege he plan to share with his PLA lab. This news
comes as the Chinese Consulate over in Houston Texas was
ordered to close by the Trump administration today. Live in
the newsroom Ellis Simonian Kron four news Donald Trump
don't trust China. China is at home.
Adam Curry: They're here. They're spying on us. And yet
doesn't seem to be Oh, no, Russia. Roger Stone.
John C Dvorak: That's a great story. I'm gonna give you a clip
of that because that was unknown to me.
Adam Curry: Oh, thank you and it's your backyard. I know. I'm
embarrassed.
John C Dvorak: Why would they cover it here?
Adam Curry: That would be crazy. Russia. Trump Orange Man bad. We
all know that. So vaccines you may have noticed that there's a
lot of press right now. Massive trial. It's the big one. Big O
big effort underway. America. America is the best we're doing
it all we we rock. Here massive Coronavirus vaccine study gets
underway. phase three clinical trial. Big news. We didn't hear
any of this when we had 30,000 people being tested in Houston
because that wasn't the vaccine from Maderna. Oh, we can't be
the one that you'll recall. The President promoted the one from
Pfizer, and you correctly said all those guys are dead. And
they got no ink nothing. No one heard about their trial, even
though it was also 30,000 people but not the Maderna is underway.
And everyone's all happy. Except federal Chairman Powell. For
some reason. I think the truth wanted to come out here. There's
great
Unknown: uncertainty around the development of therapeutics and
vaccines. All of us want them to happen as soon as possible. But
we can't plan on that. We've got to hope for the worst hope for
the hope for the best and plan for the worst.
Adam Curry: Loved One. Clever one that should
John C Dvorak: have given you a clip of the day for finding that
guy. Oops. Oops, didn't mean that hey, did you get rid of
this Trump?
Adam Curry: So I watched the jazz play Utah Jazz play God, I
don't know. It was so pathetic and they had on the back of
their so the first they had the kneeling. And way to go,
Jonathan, Isaac, Jonathan Isaac, I think it is. Way to go man
don't did he said no. In fact, do I have a clip of him? I think
I may have a clip. I was quite impressed by I guess I don't.
It's crazy. I thought I had I thought I had that all clipped.
I wanted to talk about it. Oh, here we go. Jonathan Isaac of
the Orlando Magic. So he didn't put on the Black Lives Matter
jersey. He didn't kneel. They have to know he's an ordained
minister. I think he preached I think he I think he has a church
that he preaches. And I don't know if it's his or if he's like
a some gig work, you know, side hustle. But when I saw the other
jerseys, the players had, say her name on the back of freedom,
equality, justice. And the one white guy on the field on the
court. The one white guy had ally. It was like oh my God,
this is so pathetic, pathetic, and just ally like it that's
like racist by itself. You can't have say her name on your shirt,
your ally is an ally. Just I felt very allied myself just
watching. But here's Jonathan Isaac getting an asinine
question from the press and an asinine follow up. He's kind of
hard to understand. But if you focus, you'll get it. Make sure
you unmute. Hey. So I have a two part question for you.
Unknown: So you didn't kneel during the anthem, but you also
didn't wear a black lives matter shirt? Do you believe that black
lives matter?
Adam Curry: I mean, what kind of a question is that? Do these do
these children go to journalism school and learn this? Let's ask
the black man Lee they do what's asked the black man of Black
Lives Matter. Come on, as absolute
John C Dvorak: Stop, stop stop it for context was just a black
reporter, a white reporter
Adam Curry: while she was on the phone. So we don't know. But she
sounds Karenina me as absolute.
Unknown: I believe that black lives matter. When it's my
decision, and part of this, first of all, is my thought
that, you know, nearly all wearing gloves, man, you don't
Adam Curry: even understand what he's saying. Yes,
John C Dvorak: I can understand everything. He's saying, okay.
Unknown: Don't go hand in hand with support a backlash. I do
believe that black lives matter. But I just felt like it was a
decision that I had to make an offer, like putting putting a
shirt on and Nealon went hand in hand with supporting backlash,
that it made me support backlash and that I believe that. For
myself, my life has been supported up to the gospel of
Jesus Christ. Everyone is made in the image of God and we all
for God's glory. Hands.
Go ahead. Okay. Am I able to follow up with a quick one? Yes,
please do. Go ahead. Okay. So Jonathan, I'm asking this with
all sincerity. I just want to really understand your reasoning
for that. Can you just explain further what you feel like
religion has to do with kneeling for the anthem to protest
against racism and police brutality? I mean, wow, thanks
for
Adam Curry: the in depth. Question, lady. What does
religion have to do it day? Oh, thank you. And I appreciate
Jonathan Isaac. Clinical.
John C Dvorak: Jip shit that woman is
Adam Curry: she just wants a quote for a headline so she can
hang up and go right and be first and posted on Twitter.
John C Dvorak: Let's do I started listening to C span.
Yeah, I
Adam Curry: watched a lot of it myself.
John C Dvorak: Well, I caught the colons after the bite. It's
the best
Adam Curry: part. Hello, everybody knows this.
John C Dvorak: So I have a few I got four clips. Nice. I got a
Democrat. Probably two Democrats, two Republicans. And
I'll start with the Republicans and then this will be the first
one these are scattered around on the list. So this one is more
call in sick.
Unknown: The only thing I can say if they get in office will
be ruined. And she will become president if they get in.
Because they're gonna get rid of Biden because he's already sick.
Why is he sick? You know why he's sick? Go to Robin next.
Adam Curry: You know why he's sick. And we're off to Muncie.
Hello.
Unknown: So that's good. In fact,
Adam Curry: hold on a second. That is by some odd, odd. No,
no. It's a borderline. It was. That was good. That was fun.
John C Dvorak: You got a kick out of it. Yes. Missy. Mostly
the segue that made it worse.
Adam Curry: Of course. Tuesday Night was all about Trump's not
a racist. He's not a racist. He's not a racist, man. We got
everybody coming on. Herschel Walker is not a racist. Just not
a racist, not a racist. Well, this did not sit well with Judy
and yummy show you.
Unknown: What we are seeing is an aggressive attempt on the
part of this party and of President Trump. Just say I'm
not a racist. We heard that from Herschel Walker a few minutes
ago. We're hearing now from from state representative Jones of
Georgia, just saying this President does have support
among black Americans to push back on the narrative that they
say is not the whole picture about him.
That's right. And the Republican Party as a whole in 2012 did a
really long autopsy trying to figure out how to expand their
base and how to diversify the party. Then came Donald Trump,
and he did the exact opposite of what the party said he focused
on racial division. He focus on immigration, he called
immigrants rapists and criminals. He said we needed
more police, not less police. And then of course, while he's
in office, President Trump has really really beat up on the
Black Lives Matter movement. He's called it a The call people
anarchistic. He's called them not good for America. He's
really called into question whether or not people should be
taking to the streets after we see death like Jacob Blake in
Wisconsin or George Floyd in Minnesota. Um, so the RNC
tonight is really trying to push back on that notion. But critics
of President Trump say that no matter what people around him
say the President himself has really been the person giving
his critics or ammunition we can think back to his response after
Charlottesville when he said there are very fine people that
no no wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, you
Adam Curry: blew the kicker
Unknown: than the person giving his critics their ammunition? We
can think back to his response after Charlottesville when he
said there are five very fine people that go to Nazi rallies
and even
Adam Curry: it's a new, new unimproved. There's not very
fun. It's not very fun.
John C Dvorak: I missed this.
Adam Curry: It's very fine people at the Nazis
John C Dvorak: Nazi rally very fine. People go to Nazi rallies.
Does this woman have work out? Is she even in the business?
She's the worst journalist ever. There are plenty of very fine
black reporters that should have her job. Let's hear it one more
time
Unknown: giving his critics or ammunition we can think back to
his response after Charlottesville, when he said
there are very fine people that go to Nazi rallies. And even now
we're in the midst of this racial reckoning. He's talking
about the idea that he doesn't think that police reform or
systemic racism is is as widespread as Democrats make it
to be out to seem. A clip of the day.
Adam Curry: Thank you. I was waiting for it. I think that's
appropriate. Clip from
John C Dvorak: Scott Adams. That is the best version of very fine
people I've ever heard.
Adam Curry: Yeah, Mitch, no less on PBS.
John C Dvorak: on PBS, your Bastion, your national treasure.
So let's float back to NPR and they had this the Trump hater
and became very well known. Democrat strategist Paul Begala,
talking about the RNC event, and I just thought this would be
worth listening to. I want you to know, you're not alone.
Unknown: And we should note this adds a message for the
Republicans. Other conventions featured speakers who've
mentioned the pandemic have generally praised the president
for successfully fighting it in their view. How did Melania do?
I thought she did very well. I thought she was the best speaker
last night. unfair to compare her to Michelle Obama or Jill
Biden at the Democratic Convention. But it is
interesting. Dr. Biden used her time to humanize her husband to
tell the story of how their family had been shattered by
tragedy, and how they knitted it back together is using that as a
metaphor for then what she hopes her husband can do for the
country. Mrs. Trump didn't go that route. She at least was the
only person who spoke from the reality based world though we're
in the middle of a pandemic, and you would have never known it
from the other speakers. So I'm glad she did that. And it was
noteworthy that she was to me as somebody who used to work in
that White House. Speaking from the parking lot formerly known
as the Rose Garden. I'm not very happy with her aesthetic, but I
did like her speech.
Well, let's talk about the location. Because that was one
of several questions about this. We have Melania from the Melania
Trump from the from the Rose Garden, Secretary of State Mike
Pompeo spoke from Jerusalem while on an official trip. Now,
he said he did it on his own time. Our correspondent Mara
Liasson has noted that the laws on this are weak, it's hard to
say, you know, these people should go to jail or something.
But there are laws and prohibitions against using
federal property for personal political purposes. My question
to you as a political Pro is do you think voters care about
that?
Not many? No, I do because I'm a I'm a nerd. But I think it would
be unwise for the Democrats to fixate on that too much.
Because we're in a pandemic.
I think the Democrats ought to say, look, the President should
speak from a COVID word he should speak from an ICU unit,
he should speak from a morgue,
Adam Curry: from a morgue.
John C Dvorak: President should speak from a morgue.
Adam Curry: I think it's a rare double Clip of the Day. Now,
that is advice you will never get from the curry Devorah
Consulting Group. This is a drug called for napped and for napped
is for schizophrenia. Schizophrenia. I don't think I
can ever recall an ad for a drug for people who have
schizophrenia. And schizophrenia, I think is very
scary when you hear about these symptoms. And maybe it has
something to do with. We're all being locked in. Or we feel
we're locked in. We feel restricted. We're watching tick
tock videos and, and scrolling through Instagram. Well, we'll
listen to what they're talking about. This is a commercial.
Unknown: So good to see you. So really, how are you?
Oh, look, that's what we're both taking right now for naps. You
know, that's really been helping me manage my schizophrenia. I
used to do these terrible voices I used to feel like everyone was
staring at me
are doing much better now. Right?
That's an apt as approved for the treatment of schizophrenia
in adults in clinical trials for nap significantly improved
symptoms of schizophrenia compared to placebo. finaps may
change your heart rhythm, which could elevate risk of sudden
death. Your doctor will consider this when deciding among
treatments and may prescribe another medication first all may
instruct you to take a smaller dosage of finaps The good thing
to know is we're not alone. Ask your doctor about finaps or good
finaps.com. This is
John C Dvorak: that ad, right? They both women has
schizophrenia and they're having a chat.
Adam Curry: It may be just one woman talking to herself. I
don't know. Well, that's what I was. But the it had really deep
bass with heartbeat a rapidly increasing. And if you if you I
wonder if you have schizophrenia, if you hear
voices, and you're listening to an ad that has actual voices
whispering Holy crap, that's gotta be triggering or at least
have that risk.
John C Dvorak: I that is the weirdest I'll give you. I'm
giving you a clip of the day.
Adam Curry: Well, I appreciate that because I'll take the Clip
of the Day but it's a little scary for me.
John C Dvorak: Don't be don't be afraid. I mean, I think it's
sick. Okay, let's start with the Ben Collins Trump TV two Biden
one. This is an example of somebody at Trump supporter
calling in and then they kick it over to dividing guy. This will
be the Trump guy
Unknown: and back to your calls. Cookeville. Tennessee Bob.
Good morning. Good morning. But to protect Macau. I just like to
talk about the hypocrisy of columbines propaganda media
outlets. Perfect example is until the polls started shifting
on Biden, the Democrats and the media outlets was all calling it
peaceful protest, but now that they are blaming Trump for all
the violence. How does that work? When the very buts I said
I'm replaceable protest, CNN and MSNBC with those stories? What
Adam Curry: is this guy a ham who's on like 80 meters at
night.
John C Dvorak: I mean, I had to leave this guy on there because
he got such an unbelievable mis and he's got such a ridiculous
accent. And it's not in Tennessee and accent as far as
I'm concerned. This was parts of Tennessee that have this x. This
is the axon. This is ham radio, the more plus
Adam Curry: just the ham radio. This is ham radio. Radio three
in the morning. 80 meters.
Unknown: NBC would do stories for buildingSMART in the
background. It's all that's just peaceful protest. And another
hypocritical thing about the Democrats yesterday was video
with Nancy Pelosi in the beauty salon. It's the old adage say
don't know is that those out to you to do the epoxy and that
wind filter you had better yesterday I got dropped when
you're gonna have somebody on Fox News from on your show.
We actually we had Chris Wallace here. His new book
ran out. Watch you can't even watch TV anymore. watch
somebody.
You ask the question, Bob. I kid you. We have we have guests from
from all the networks as we're able to get them when we're able
to get them but I appreciate your input to Granite City,
Illinois,
Adam Curry: David. It's good to meet you better than this.
They're all better than that. That guy is a legend.
John C Dvorak: Okay, well, this one here will entertain you the
most. Okay, I believe this is the best of the group. You know,
you can take or leave any of them. But this is a woman with
the you've heard of herd immunity. Let's try this one on
for size.
Unknown: All right. Well here from Josephine in Livingston,
New Jersey on our Biden line.
Good morning. Morning.
It is very, very sad that this country has come to the point.
It's you against me. Just like the woman you heard from
California. Oh, my God, do we really live in America, this
idolatry to Lucifer. So I labeled Trump I have to say,
this idolatry to Lucifer and even the white van Jellicle
church who proclaims himself pro life. They're not pro life.
They're pro Bert. Now they're saying they'll die like the
stock to Atlas that Trump has just hired? Who believes in this
idea of hurts mentality to get to that herd mentality. 2
million people have to die.
Next on our trump live from chop box era.
Adam Curry: I mean, you had built it up so much, even if I
hadn't laughed, I would have given it to you. But that was,
do you have that ISO tell me you have 2 million.
John C Dvorak: So what I'm sorry. So there's a big
controversy going on in Washington State amongst the
educators. And it's just a lot of articles about it. And it
revolves around the curriculum, which isn't teaching, reading
and writing, and especially in the first and second grades in
kindergarten. And it turns out, there's one book that keeps
cropping up into discussion, which is got everybody bent out
of shape, called A is for activist.
Adam Curry: Wait, isn't this an old book? And we've seen this
book? Yeah, yeah, we
John C Dvorak: ridiculed this book, I think about four or five
years ago. Yeah. Yeah, it's back into play. Oh, no. And to make
it more interesting, the frontman for Rage Against the
Machine, I can't remember his name. He introduces himself in
this clip, is reading it now. And he's a big fan of this book.
And he reads it to his kids all the time. And I have three
clips. I don't have all the letters of the alphabet. But I
have the main ones that is it's worth listening to him read it.
It's a little it's a little eye rolling. But this book is a
major, a mainstay, let's say a mainstay of Washington State's
educational system. And kids are required in the teachers don't
seem to care. Yeah, that's great. Because the teachers
nowadays seem to have lost their way. But I want to play these
clips because it refers right back into you talked about those
17 ideals from the UN Global Goals. You're not going to get
there without brainwashing the kids at an early age, of course.
Well, here's the brainwashing let's listen for this is the as
for activist, part one, Hi, this
Unknown: is Tom Morello. Here at Veritas studios. I'm reading my
first ever books on tapes.
Adam Curry: I'm sorry, I didn't. I like Rage Against the Machine.
I didn't know Morello was doing this stuff. But this is the guy
isn't this. We're not going to take it the F No, we're not
going to I mean, what happened to his fighting spirit? Did they
get to him? Did they put a chip in his head? What happened? Was
he always like that?
John C Dvorak: I must have been
Unknown: for a fine book called A is for activist. This is a
book that I have in my personal collection. And I read to my
three year old and five year old when they will allow it. And now
I'll begin reading it for the world. A A is for activist,
advocate. abolitionist ally. Actively answering a call to
action. Are you an activist?
Adam Curry: That reminds me of the book. Are you my mother? Do
you remember that book? Yeah, are you my mother
Unknown: charitably answering a call to action. Are you an
activist? B? B is for banner bobbing in the sky. billowing in
the breeze? Because you're not shy? See? See is for co op,
cooperating cultures. Creative counter to corporate vultures.
Oh, and cats. Can you find the cats? D, little D democracy?
More than voting. You'll agree. Dictators detest it. Donkeys
don't get it. But you and me. We demand equality. Now,
Adam Curry: this is putting subliminal messages into the
child's head, little D, donkey. All these things that they have
no knowledge of their pre programmed,
Unknown: ie. Equal Rights. Black, Brown, or white. clean
and healthy is a right. Every place we live in play.
Environmental Justice is the way F F is for feminist, for
fairness in our pay for freedom to flourish, and choose our own
way. H H is for healthy food. A human right. Honey Do hikma
nature's delight. Thomas hot dogs Havarti cheese. Hot dogs?
Yes, healthy hot dogs, please.
John C Dvorak: There's a whipsaws in there. It's in a
very subtle way for the kids and confuse them a lot of neuro
linguistic programming if you caught that. Yeah, of course.
It's really, really a sinister subversive book that does not
really help children. It just It screws them up. And this is
going on in Washington State. They just love this book and so
does this Morello guy just goes, I used to think it's the
greatest thing ever. But let's go. I took a lot of letters out
of this next segment and then I really cut it down for the
third. Because but I had to keep a couple of these. This is this
is why we exist. Let's go on with this stupid book.
Unknown: I, indigenous and immigrant together we stand
tall. Our histories are irrelevant. An injury to one
Adam Curry: is injury. And to all
Unknown: a good night J. J is for justice. Yay for justice.
John Jing Zhang, Anita Jamal, justice for the janitors who

for. We all know what J is for
Unknown: jobs, jobs, jobs.
LGBTQ I love who you choose, because love is true. Liberate
your notions of limited emotions, celebrate with pride
are links of devotion.
Adam Curry: Is this is this not the way Dr. Seuss writes? Isn't
this kind of like a Dr. Seuss kind of cadence or my
John C Dvorak: mean? He's, like very one letter to the other.
There's some rhyme there's it's just really a piece of crap. Let
me continue.
Unknown: Am megaphones marching movimiento. Music, hip hip.
Hooray. It must be Mayday.
Adam Curry: Oh, come on. Did he do comrades at C or D is going
to do that with a K
John C Dvorak: this guy's good may days and it gets me
Adam Curry: it gets worse.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I think it gets worse. You're is that the
end of second clip? Yeah, that's the end of clip two. Okay, well,
then the worst is at the very end because it's just like,
okay, just shoot me.
Unknown: Okay, N N is for No, no, no, no. Yes to what we want.
No to what must go. No, no. No.
Adam Curry: It's so interesting. I know so many young mothers who
add maybe Jessie's like this who do not want to use the word no
with their children. They don't want them to use the word stupid
and they don't want they will not say no they will explain
what's wrong or Have you have you heard about this? This? This
no word?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, there's some elements to that because I
do wash. Jesse get rankled when I called Theodore a dummy it's a
kid

John C Dvorak: resemblance.
Unknown: He's done. Of course. Of course,
Adam Curry: Paul man. Well, you deserve this for sure. No doubt
about that. There was one bit that I thought was very funny.
This is Comey. Just lying, getting caught in it within 50
Say 49 seconds.
Unknown: Okay. When did you first learn about the existence
of the steel dossier
sometime towards the end of September of 2016? Do you agree
with
Mr. Horowitz, that the dossier was central and essential to the
Carter Page, FISA warrant application being approved?
I agree that it was important. I can't tell you whether it was
essential. And by that I mean that it wouldn't have been
granted without the steel information. Let's
go through the application. There are two parts to the
application. Was there an effort to get a warner prove without
using the dossier?
Yes. My understanding is in the summer, they asked DOJ whether
they would support moving forward on a warrant application
and they said no right and correct. That's my understanding
from the Horowitz report. Then you add the dossier
all of a sudden they say yes to the warrant application. Is that
a fair statement?
I think it's fair to say that DOJ decided to move forward
after this information was part of
Adam Curry: does anyone hear this?
John C Dvorak: Wow. In fact, just finished the show with
this. That's the Clip of the Day.
Adam Curry: Oh, you are you are you are just way too clever.
Alrighty, then.
Unknown: Please also
John C Dvorak: mentioned What a douche bag.
Adam Curry: Cooper Anderson Cooper over at CNN had Bill
Gates on truth always wants to come out.
John C Dvorak: You've talked about the some of the
sophisticated tools, the therapeutics that that are
coming and that some some are here.
Unknown: Can you talk a little bit? I mean,
John C Dvorak: let's talk about Regeneron. You've been
optimistic about about it. It got obviously a big endorsement
from President Trump because he was able to receive it. He's
calling it a cure. He's calling on regulators to give it
emergency use authorization. Do you support the idea of the use
authorization? And I assume it's not a cure? No.
Unknown: Well, the word cure is a bit of an older promise. And
then that makes it sound that looks like works for everyone.
And the whole concern about this disease should go away. And
that's the last thing we want people think about.
Adam Curry: We can't wait to think of this disease going
away. That's the last thing we want people thinking about.
absolute last thing we want.
John C Dvorak: That's actually a, I'm gonna give you a
borderline Tip of the Day. That's an excellent.
Adam Curry: One more time, air inside Oops, here we go.
Unknown: And the whole concern about this disease should go
away. And that's the last thing we want people think about.
Adam Curry: Yeah. What's the last thing I got?
John C Dvorak: until after the election? Oh, no,
Adam Curry: then you can think about it. Sure. So we go back to
when Joe Biden, Joe Biden was in the Senate. And this was Well,
listen,
Unknown: Senator made a very moving and eloquent speech as a
son of the Confederacy. Acknowledging that it was time
to change in yield to a position that Senator Carol Moseley Braun
sprays on the floor of the Senate, not granting a federal
charter to a organization made up of many fine people who
continue to display the Confederate flag. So
John C Dvorak: wow, exactly the same was the producer producer
given this is first name or her first name. Okay, let me see if
I can propose a great that is a dynamite catch.
Adam Curry: Isn't that isn't that fantastic? Let me see who
that was.
John C Dvorak: Yes, Clip of the Day right there
Adam Curry: I wish I had that on hand, but I'm going to search
the system real quick. See if I can find yes, this was ah, this
producer is only known as CK this, this producer has done a
lot of work to get me to get me stuff completely anonymous, just
in case find CK Yes. CK did a great job of Louis. No, I don't
think so. But the most interesting response I saw and
there was an I have a whole bin full of just quick media
responses with what people were saying and who all of a sudden
appeared on the scene. It was it was really because, you know,
familiar faces came back after months of being vacant. And Van
Jones was on set with Anderson Cooper as as the news came in
that the media had determined by Joe Biden Kamala Harris and won
the election again, the media has determined this. So that's,
that's, you know, they've they've kept their with their,
with their mantra and with their mission. But Van Jones was
deeply affected. And I this was real I Dwight.
John C Dvorak: Well, listen to me i If you say it's real, it's
fine. It's real. But why?
Adam Curry: Why was he affected? Yeah, it's had everything to do
with race. Why bother?
Unknown: Well, it's easier to be a parent this morning. It's
easier to be a dad, it's easier to it's easier what to tell your
kids character matters. It matters. To tell them the truth
matters. In a good person matters. And it's easier for a
lot of people. If you're Muslim, in this country, you don't have
to worry if the President doesn't want you to hear. If
you're an immigrant, you don't have to worry if the President's
gonna be happy to have babies snatched away sit central
gamers. For no reason. vindication for a lot of people
who really oh
my god,
you know, I can't breathe, you know, that wasn't just charged.
for it. There's a lot of people that couldn't breathe. Every
day, you're waking up and you're getting these tweets, and you're
going to the store, and people who have been afraid to show
their racism or get nastier and nastier to you and you're
worried about your kids, and you're worried about your
sister. And can she does go to Walmart and get back into the
heart car without somebody saying something to her. And you
spend so much of your life energy, just trying to hold it
together. And this is a big deal for us just to be able to get
some peace, and have a chance for a reset. And the character
of the country matters. And being a good man matters. You
know, I just want my son to look at this. Look at this. You know,
it's easy to to do what the cheap way and, and get away with
stuff. But it comes back around. It comes back around. And it's a
good day for this country. I'm sorry for the people who lost it
for them. It's not a good day. But for a whole lot of people.
It's a
Adam Curry: good day. And I think
John C Dvorak: stop them stop the presses and give yourself
Clip of the Day right off the bat.
Adam Curry: This is I think a great example of what a pixie is
pixie P ICC perception induced concept change. He has seen so
much racism during the past four years that probably did not
exist, like the berries you're trying to pick, as we explained
on the last show,
John C Dvorak: by the one of the greatest moments in the history
of the no agenda show is discussing that
Adam Curry: perception induced concept change. And it's real,
this guy was really affected. Wow. You know, it'll be great
lent as Gustavo Araya. He'll be great if someone could actually
use some AI. For useful purposes. Yeah, I can do it and
find all of the clips of the day as signified by the jingle in
the wav files. Yeah, I know. I know. AI is great, but it can't
do that. be fantastic. Thank you again to Gustavo Raya, thank you
all for supporting us despite us not being live. And of course,
you can continue listening to no agenda stream hanging out there
in the troll room. I know people like to troll. They even troll
us when we're not there. Yep, that's how, how trollee you all
are? We will be back on Sunday. With episode 1551. It's a
palindrome. Make sure you get your Palindrome donations in and
coming to you from the heart of the Texas hill country here in
FEMA Region number six in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry,
John C Dvorak: and I'm from Northern Silicon Valley where I
remain. I'm John C. Dvorak. We'll

health report and update for you. Until then, remember us at
the vorak.org/na Adios, oh fossa, Hui Hui, and
