So rainstick for today, Adam curry, John C. Dvorak.
Sunday, February 9 2014. Time for you to get more nation media
assassination episode five, nine or zero. This is no agenda,
increasing activation and brain regions from form the mesolimbic
dopamine system here in FEMA Region 60 drivers Hi Todd are
not as in Texas systems. Good morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where it's raining where it
rains it pours I'm John C. Dvorak. Greg glodon Buzzkill.
I don't know what this is not good to hell. Oh, it's not good.
Something's going on. Let me see what's happening. Why is the
computer frozen now all of a sudden Hold on. Let me just
check that again. And Buzzkill? Hey, John, how you doing?
Hey, great.
Morning, Sue. Hi, everyone. How you doing? Is it really raining?
I heard you got something like 10 inches last night. Is that
true?
It's about time. Wow.
And you know that we're completely responsible for this.
So are these to submit it's an amazing cosmic coincidence and
once we get the rain sticks began raining finally. Yeah,
even though they'd predicted when rain till April.
Let me just review. It had not rained for months. Was it four
months? Five months? It hadn't rained in California. Yeah. And
we pull out our rain sticks as professionally licenced rain
stick operators. Immediately it starts raining. We did it again.
On the previous show. You got 10 inches, but Ireland is pissed
off.
Today. Don't even listen to the show nor congested. Some Irish
listeners are gonna know that we had to Yeah, we have. We have
Oh, disinteresting I'm getting no remember. I think yes. Yes,
we did. We do.
We got Tommy Boy. A couple other people. They might Right. Right.
Right. And they're really angry. They're tweeting me stop with
the rainstick.
Yeah, I've seen this these tweets. Well, you know, it's not
to say it's, I guess, to getting flooded.
I have to say, John. I have lost the Olympic fever.
Did you watch the opening ceremony? Yeah. First of all, I
watched the pre games. Before the ceremony after the show on
Thursday. No hole I had I had the fever. I was really I had an
Olympic fever. I was watching the figure skating. You know, I
watch I love the figure skating and the Russians were just
kicking ass and was just beautiful and American sucked.
Dude fell down. For Team skate. I
missed that because I don't really, I don't like judge
sports because I don't think there's really sports.
Well, there's a lot of technicality. My mom was a
figure skater.
Yeah, there's a lot of technicality in it, but it's
still judge sport. So it's, it's subject to corruption.
Yeah, fat low. That's part of the beauty of it. It's
remember there was some skater wants to do some wild stuff, but
they didn't think it was appropriate. So
it's based nichter It's based on outfits in ice skating. That's
what I like so much
makeup.
wear more makeup.
I do want to mark it off in the Red Book. Even though it didn't
exactly appear it wasn't the mutt or the Mongrel that we had
predicted. I saw it in the newspapers. I saw it in USA
Today. Stray Dog interrupts opening ceremony I think it's a
red book come true once again.
And we this wasn't even a we put it in the red book but we knew
it was going to happen. These things you know, they're just
they they're self they're just obvious. Obvious.
Yeah. And now we have there's all kinds of fun stuff and we
will get into a lot of F Russia stuff today no doubt because
that involves our friend Victoria Nuland but one of the
rings didn't open up and immediately some great hoax on
the web. I was hoping someone would pick it up. Did you see
this? Apparently the the engineer whose job it was to
have all the rings unfold he was stabbed to death in his hotel
room.
Oh well I thought because I don't have a clip but I could
get it it was on van cat Yeah, that's
supposed to be the American ring. Is that is that the
was the American ring that didn't open Oh, please. I like
it.
Come on. Yeah, man responsible
die that but now we're represented by flakes. Well, par
for the course. This is not an accident.
The man responsible for operating the Olympic rings
during last night's Winter Olympic opening ceremonies in
Russia was found dead. According to local reports, the body of T
Boris of of DF for I'm Boris tea, Boris FDF was found in his
hotel room this morning with multiple stab wounds. Sure. I
wish I'd gotten some play. And then, you know, there's so many
things the, of course, along with the whole Russia hates gays
thing. It didn't take long for people to find out that, gee,
NBC edits these broadcasts. And the the president of the
International Olympic Committee had a whole speech and he talked
about diversity and they'd cut a piece out. And immediately their
deceptive. Hello. It's an edited show people. This is what they
do they need to fit in more advertisements.
Yeah, I think there was some break that Matt Lauer goes, and
now they're showing the Russian history. And here's where they
they break from the future from the past or the future as we
break for a commercial or some some crazy design. Like Exactly,
exactly. No, I think what I saw everything look good. And it's
nice, and you know, just another, it's quite mad.
Many of these bits they did, especially that after they had
that horrible walk out of all his athletes, and they went to
the second part of the of the show. I thought the show was
very entertaining.
I thought it was good, too. And I kind of liked the whole
opening montage and little girl flying and the little girl
flying around like a maniac. Good, good, good flyer. And,
yeah, there's a bunch of cool stuff. What people don't
realise is how incredibly commercial these Olympic Games
are. And people kind of gloss over it. And it'll Yeah, oh,
yeah. Oh, yeah. Are you kidding? I think that I think people
really believe in this whole, you know, oh, you know, it's our
Olympic dream, and you're representing your country. No,
no, you're representing visa and McDonald's. In fact, I stumbled
across and I don't watch it often. But I saw AMY GOODMAN
show. She had some some woman on who she was. She was clearly a
Russian expert. And she brought on Samantha retry Rosie.
Samantha, rich Rosie. You see I have it here as she competed, I
think in 2006 in the luge competition. And she wrote a an
article about how the Olympic Games are very similar to The
Hunger Games, and how, in fact, it's, it's so eerily similar,
where we were all put into groups, and it's really Doggy
Dog. And then she went into the whole commercial thing. And I
thought it was great that this was on television because you
rarely hear anyone really telling the truth. Now, she is
no longer an Olympian, an Olympian and I was quite
surprised that even went this far on on the Amy Goodman. What
is the name of her show a democracy now? The War and Peace
Report? Yeah, the war and peace report about the commercial
really what how these these poor boys and girls how they're
really trained by the International Olympic Committee
to do one thing and that's basically to shield for the
advertisers.
Well as a as a US national team athlete, I signed a contract
every year with the US Legion Association. And that contract
stipulated what I couldn't couldn't say how I should use my
media time. Essentially, I was being trained to be a
spokesperson for Verizon.
I loved it. What would you say about Verizon? In great phone
service? This is how dumb Amy Goodman is she does not doesn't
even understand the significance of this.
No, I would say thanks Verizon for making all my Olympic dreams
come true. My the realisation of my of my American Olympic dream.
This is this is exactly what it is. And I think people really
don't see
good news right over it. She doesn't she doesn't even get you
know, she's, she's thinking the following. Golly, I wish we had.
I could I could talk about their call quality all day long. That
would be awesome, man. Crap. Lodz bitch
is enabled by Verizon. So that's kind of the line kind of defines
how an athlete talks about their relationship to Verizon. Of
course, it's not always that specific line. But during the
Olympics, of course, you take on a whole nother range of
sponsors. The you know, the sponsor of the US team in
general, USOC sponsors and committee sponsors Yeah, the US
Olympic Committee sponsors
Amy still doesn't understand the significance of it. It isn't
complete commercial event.
And yeah, and everybody's working for free.
This girl has to get a part Listen, she's gonna say she has
to get a job
and so then you become a spokesperson for those sponsors
as well. So, you know, the sponsorship relationship and
like the the sponsors themselves are contingent upon the actual
event. We're cup settings. Verizon was the the main the
main sponsor, the Olympics, you have the full range of US
corporate ust and corporate sponsorship.
And yet despite the fact that corporate sponsorship plays such
a big role, you also point out that individual athletes in fact
often have to take on other jobs just to support themselves
because they see very little of that sponsorship money it like
zero.
Yeah, they get a free jacket. They get
it. Yeah. Well, I think they pay for their travel. But that's
about it. And I'm always amazed that people don't see through
this like this big cultural event. No, it's not. It's not
it's just not it's you're surprised.
You're amazed. Yeah.
No, but if you walk down Well, no, I'm not really. You're
right. You're right. But I lost the I really lost the Olympic
fever. With all of this every single channel just filled with
terror, this terror that oh, it's gonna be just you Jane Jane
Harman was on CNN. A Jane Harman. Who looks like she kind
of looks like she should be on. Like a 70s sitcom,
either. Yeah, she looks like like the Partridge
Family. Yes, that's it. The Partridge Family. Exactly.
Nailed it. She's a former representative. And she is on
drugs. This is new, though, because I've heard her make
sense. But when she for some reason, now she's working for
the Woodrow Wilson building or foundation or not quite sure
what that is. Yeah, but she's also a contributor to CNN and
she's off her rocker.
Jane Jane Harman, you've seen all the reports of all the
fears, their threats are exaggerating. Are these
overblown?
What do you think genre is? Are these exaggerating? Are these
overblown? No, not by
any means.
US intelligence officials have told me they are deeply
concerned and deeply these are people who are not necessarily
alarmists. Well, I said
they're not necessarily alarmist. Let me see Mike
Rogers, not necessarily alarmist. Was that the
douchebags name? Yeah.
Peter, King Peter kings.
Well, I think we're prepared these suicide bombers or
whoever,
or whoever, you can listen to her that she's great. The
suicide bombers or whoever the garbage man, whatever,
I only have to be right once we have to be right 100% of the
time. 100% is not achievable. not achievable. We cannot do it.
We have preposition, Department of Homeland Security, FBI and
military folks in such a waste of money. Have naval warships in
the Black Sea, which abuts Sochi and abuts it abuts Sochi have
others in the neighbourhood in the Mediterranean. And these are
the right things to do.
It's the right thing to do.
multimillion dollar chips that cost a fortune to drive one
mile. Let's just move him into position. What are they gonna
do? pound and pound associated with you with cannon fog? That's
exactly fire cannon fire and shot Yeah.
Meanwhile, the Iranian fleet is sailing right into our waters,
like, hey, idiots up there and a budding Sochi.
It's a hard message to hear part of the message has to be what
Janet Napolitano just said pride in our athletes. Yes. And the
fact that the US is I think likely to win a lot of goals and
that's a great statement for our country. She's She's high. I'm
telling you, she's high. But it is a very dangerous world why
Vladimir Putin Putin would pick a place that first of all is
warm.
Now, broth is about to do something amazing. He's about to
actually say you're full of shit in CNN speak, because she's
going to see why Vladimir Putin pick the place. That is why
Vladimir
Putin Putin would pick a place that first of all is warm and
with palm trees, but that second abuts the wild west of Russia,
the North Caucasus abuts the
wild west of Russia now luckily, broth just can't take it
himself. I guess he didn't talk.
It baffles me
was the International Olympic Committee. They were the
selected
vanity project for Putin and it's just
having any of its advantage Shut up bro dollars.
It's really been spent there's presumably a lot of corruption
and there could be penetration by people. In addition, who
cares if Black Widow somewhere Black Widow person prepares her
his life is has a much easier time attacking than somebody who
wants to survive.
Thank you for this fantastic insight. Let me review. A person
who was willing to take his or her life is much more dangerous
as someone who wants to survive. Let me scribble that down.
Moron.
This woman is always a dingbat. This
is really Add though. This is real. This has gotten
crazy. Just keep her off the air as what she needs.
No, she's she's, she's got more of this. I got more clips from
her. Oh, not about this about something else. She comes back
all the time. He's like she's on CNN now. She should do a cooking
show. Speaking. Speaking of which,
and well, what?
Well, you know, Oh, yeah. Oh, wait, it's another instalment.
Oh, to do that. A little bit. Okay. I'm sorry. I
was kind of relishing the moment. We Okay, okay, we're
gonna go back to Sochi. That's okay. We can do we can take a
break right now, ladies and gentlemen. And I'm going to ask
Adam in the big question that I hinted about it in the
newsletter. You've got your newsletters. Yeah. With the
picture of the dog. What's it for is very nice. And I'm going
to ask him now. So here we go. We're gonna start the show off
with a bang. Hey, Adam. Yeah, John. Hey, I heard that you had
another obat. Dinner. That's right, John.
We are right on cue today. Well, I must say it's been a while
since we had a dinner with the robots here in Austin, Texas. A
reminder, these are my friends.
Yes. And can I ask a question before you begin, please? Would
did this include the guy who would not ever sit down and even
have a coffee with a Republican guy?
No, because he is not one of the Oh, bots. I will however, see
him tonight.
Oh, another dinner? Yes.
Yeah, it's another dinner.
Wow. Back to Back.
Yes. This is actually a benefit dinner and we've been invited to
his table. So so we're joining him and his wife at his table
for the night. Yes, yes. Yes. And I actually sent him a copy
of the white paper that our Brian the gay Crusader put
together. He won't read it. He replied to my email and said
I'll take a look at it. I look forward to more heated debate.
I'll maybe we'll look at it but
but I mean, that's his premise. I look forward to more heated
debate.
Are you having a heated debate with him?
Yeah. That's yeah, that's why I sent it to him and over
Christmas but
me okay, here's it. Let me okay, you you're sitting at the table.
This is just a just something to put in the back of your mind is
you're usually you're gonna be sitting at the table, you're
going to be put your hands you're going to be touching the
table edge over on the wrist area. No, no, I have my hands.
Just just just once it's in the back of your mind, okay. And
you're going to be that's going to be your position, the guy is
going to be talking yakking away the wineglass will be about, I'd
say two feet from your right hand. In the middle of a
sentence, you you thrust your right hand forward in one
motion, grab the glass and throw it right in his face and then
say douche. Okay, can you just trust one one through
one fell swoop? Yeah, I splash him in the face and say douche?
Yeah, okay. The we hadn't had one of these obod dinners for a
while. And what happened as you know, I was a bit disappointed
not then we had nice dinners, of course, but I was a bit
disappointed and have any anything for the show. And what
I learned is that these dinners were to close concurrently. to
Now we had a little more time it was kind of like they went to
the obat juice machine and filled up their batteries.
I see. Oh, man. It actually hinted in an email. Yeah, that
you that you have good stuff.
Well, it started off. So the evening before I had seen two of
the robots. And one of the female bots said, Whoa, boy,
Sochi do get hacked. Everybody's getting hacked over there.
Richard angles, I trust him. He's from NBC. And that's
exactly what she said, by the way. I trust Richard Engel.
Now, are you going to tell us that it's already been busted?
Well, but it hadn't it hadn't been busted at this point. So
the next day, which is our robot dinner day, in the morning, I
send her the busted link. I say, Hello, I told you that this guy
is not to be trusted. It's completely bogus.
I get an email back, explained to the audience. I don't think
everybody knows this.
We actually played a clip from Richard Engel who was talking
about the minute you open up your laptop or the minute you
turn on your phone, you're immediately hacked in Sochi what
he said so he, although he was actually a Moscow,
right, he was in Moscow wasn't associated on this whole thing
was
it was comfortable crap was completely scripted, or as he
would say, yes, it was edited. That's why it looks kind of
weird. Because what they didn't show is that they went to a
bogus Olympic websites, which you arguably could have gone to
from Austin and gone to the same website and of course, that is
downloaded some malware. And he also side loaded an app on his
Android phone. Yeah, okay. Yeah, that was that's kind of how you
get viruses and crap that eats your eat your address book. By
the way. Did you see that piece? Did you see the actual video of
that piece?
No. Oh,
okay, I'll put it in the show notes. Because he opens up a
brand new MacBook Air. And using a MacBook Air, how beautifully
Apple packages these, these, these, these devices. And you
know, you peel off the little, it's kind of a ritual, you peel
off the little sticker and the box opens and it says, from
Apple, from Cupertino to you. It the whole thing just says, fuck
me. I'm sorry. That's really what it's just love. Lovingly
put together. This guy. He's opening the box on camera. He's
ripping the side open. He's like ripping the box open. It's
really very strange. Anyone who's who has had the pleasure
of opening up a brand new Apple product knows how nice it is. He
was just ripping it like a like a maniac. It's something to be
seen because it really confused me. i Why is this guy doing this
anyway? Onward. So I send the email. And she sends back and
she says, Well, you know, to be fair, Richard Engel was on
Rachel Maddow last night. And he did say that we're in Moscow.
And I fired back I said, Wait, you watch Rachel Maddow? She
fires back. If I were gay, I would marry her. So this is
already starting off on a bad foot for me. Right?
So this is Rachel mad. I was neck big. How's it actually
bigger than her head? Or neck comes out and her neck is wider
than then her head itself? Yeah, it is very weird looking.
There's a guy a TV host in Holland who looks so much like
her. It's scary.
Oh, do I say give me a photo I'll do it and it put in the
newsletter is separated at birth.
Let's just google this for a second. Just so you see it
Martine so Mr. T? ij. N
I don't have my keyboard. Hold on.
You don't have your keyboard JARC was you come to school or
do you come to school without your keyboard? Again?
It's underground. You haven't got it now? Mark? What? No, Ma
RTIJN Ma RTIJN space. Yeah,
que are a BB E. Krabi and he hosts the the voice actually in
the Netherlands, the voice of Holland.
You see, it looks like a lesbian. Hello?
Doesn't he look just like Rachel Maddow?
He, I this one picture of that. I have. I know. I know. It's
remarkable.
It's frightening. separated at birth Martin, Kobe and Rachel
Maddow. It's Jim. Isn't it? Okay. So that's Anyway, yes.
Onward. So remember, we have the brain professor and his wife,
Marianne, we have the the artist who wants to marry Rachel Maddow
and her husband. And by the way, I made killer crab cakes and
shrimp and, and Melissa your house? Yes. Yeah. And Mickey had
the crostinis all set up good to go. So it was it was really
quite nice. And so you know, of course, we're talking about the
weather. And I, I swear to God, she turned to me and went, you
know, climate change that that's just global warming, you know
that, right? They just use climate change now, but it's
really global warming. You know that right? That's exactly what
I said. Yeah. But you know, it's and then the professor chimes
in, then, you know, it's, it's come on, it's global warming. It
has been warming, you know, this is fact. It's just science. And
I was ours. They know, my stance on global cooled, they know
this, it global cooling, but it was it was frightening. To
actually tell me, you know that climate change is just new. It
really means global warming. Okay. So I actually stopped and
I waited and I, you know, and I and I said, I just want to go on
the record. It's okay. I just want to say, I believe that the
global global cooling is taking place, that's all and i Okay, so
there was no, there was no argument, but it was it was like
they were having none of me.
None of me. They were doing a preemptive strike.
But it was a little aggressive.
Yeah, well, they're sick of you. You blocked him on this show.
Well, yeah, I know who the artist is. I met her and and
just like, you know, I didn't know she was a huge Rachel
Maddow. Yeah, I know eBay. Okay, go on. Let's go back to the
meat.
Alright, so we're back. Now both these couples And arguably we
are as well but are childless by choice. And this is a very
phrase, this is not good. This adds very interesting twist to
how they view the world. And it was kind of interesting in a
certain point because they were here when have you ever been
around people who are childless by choice?
Oh yeah, I know a number of them I know some of it there's
there's two forms of these people. One is resignation
childless by choice, which means they wanted to have kids
right now this is these are the genders do right? The aggressive
ones the other style, which is they hate kids and they don't
want to have kids
whenever I see a child in first class, I already know I'm in for
a horrible crappy ride. Imagine your child's diarrhoea
to keep this on the two Ronnie style of discussion, which is a
shaggy dog story, which is we do very well I might add on the
show. I've noticed the the childless by choice and people
who are pre child, they end and their relationship to children
on an aeroplane is very interesting because I for
example, don't mind children. I don't like children sitting
behind me kicking the seats. No, of course not. But you can
usually put a stop to stop the horse of course. But I don't
care about the kids screaming or crying me there are all these
things because I had kids on planes that are my kids. Yeah.
And I just think it's karmic justice. And I kind of look
forward to it. Yeah. Well, I say Ah, there's the kid screaming
his head off. Mom isn't bearish. You can't keep him or her to
shut up. Yeah, yes, like once from Hawaii with JC buzzkill Jr,
when he was about four. And he for some reason, he was always
stubborn. And for some reason, we were trying to get him to get
into the seat. And he let out a blood curdling scream that you
it was it was it was so blood curdling that I'm swear to God
and my wife would back this up, the entire aeroplane cracked up
laughing. Great. And it was like Holy mackerel. We had that in
him. But it's like one of those things that I don't you know, so
I hate people that bitch about kids on playing
me too. But but this one a little Mickey and I are just
being very quiet. And we're and we're watching this back,
because the conversation was very interesting. It's like, oh
my god, can you imagine cleaning up your kids diarrhoea? And so
think about
it. Yes. So I hear this line. And I said, you know, I've never
had a problem cleaning cleaning up my kids diarrhoea. In fact,
when she was still in diapers, I'd stick my finger in it. Pull
it out. If it was if there was poop on it. I knew it was time
to clean the diaper.
Now, oh, by the smell I take it.
Well, no, she pooped very sweetly. Oh, she
was a sweet pooper. Yes.
And so this goes back and forth. And then. And then one of them
says, oh, you know, I just realised you're at you actually
have you're the only person who has a kid. And I said, Yeah, and
I said, and I actually recited some of the members. Remember,
we talked about the book about the joy of kids and how it turns
out that that used to be an economic benefit, but these
days, it really makes people sad, there doesn't improve their
lives at all, because they have to be you have to make the kid
happy. So I talked a little bit about that. I said, But you
know, I, I have to say that from a metaphysical chemical,
biological place. It's, it's great, you know, and of course,
kids are shit, you know, they treat you like shit. They're a
holes, they forget everything. They make a mess. They break
your stuff. But you know, but, but there's also beautiful sides
to it. And there's and, and then I said to the professor, I said
that I can't, I said something in that realm. And he got really
mad, and there was anger. And I said, Did you say it was it was
in that basically about that? I said, But you know, I think I
said, you know, you really might be missing something.
Oh, you implied I didn't say that specifically needed.
I didn't. I didn't really. But the anger came back and I said,
Wow, you're angry. Why are you so angry? And then he let loose?
He said, because all of our friends with kids are always
telling us we don't know what we're missing. And by the way,
the both these guys have vasectomy just to make it even
funnier. So they Yeah,
so they say this is this is interesting to me for a number
of reasons because I was doing some research on some women on
Twitter. that are just haters. And they're this type and they
like to get there men. I won't mention who the one who I follow
this one. She's a famous writer. And she likes she, she put will
put a picture of her husband with a big female purse. And
she'll say, I think men are so sexy when they have a purse.
And you could do that you read the accent from the tweet.
That's pretty good. I like it. I think men are so sexy when they
have a purse.
Yeah, it's I find that I have a friend who I believe probably
had a vasectomy because he was talked into it by one of these
women. And there's too many people in the world. You should
hear there's too many people in the world. Get your balls
chopped off, buddy. Although it's not what it was texted me
as I know, I don't want any letters, right? Anyway.
Let me just do this for a little bit.
That would make you mad because I think a vasectomy is like you
that's why I think you would match off off from
and me and Mickey, Mickey's funny not and at this point,
Mickey's jumping in and she's got a whole story unto her own
about motherhood. But she says, Oh, I you know, I would never
ever let Adam have a vasectomy. So she's cheating. I was like, I
was like, hello, fire. Here's gasoline. Oh, no. I would never
want I want him to always have the capability to produce more
beautiful children. Now now we've
got my suppose that this is this is the key to this. Just dinner.
Mickey is
the key. So now we have a five alarm now. And so Well,
eventually this simmers down a little bit. Well, I'd hope Yeah.
And by the professor's wife, Marianne, she's, she's she's
very she's I love your daughter. She she she met the kids when
they were here. She's really great. And she is T is the
funniest. And I'll get to her in a minute. I really love her for
a number of reasons, because she comes out with the most insane
crap. But before that, of course, it comes around to
Russia. Now I had sent the white paper previous to this dinner.
Had anyone read it? Well, the professor had said, Yeah, I read
like the intro. 10 pages and yeah, you know, the hate gays.
And then Marianne Putin is a power hungry dictator? I said,
Yeah, unlike George Bush, Dick Cheney. Oh, God, Bill Clinton.
Yeah, it doesn't have any powerful people or money around
those guys. Or maybe even Barack Obama. It was just, oh, it's not
possible. Well, please give it a shot and in in his defence and
the artists husband, both of those guys read it and went,
Holy crap, what is good, what is wrong with our media? This is
they, you know, they did a little Facebook thing. Okay. So
in their defence, they read it later, but they hadn't come
prepared to my dinner, which was a little surprising. So as a
part of this conversation about Putin being a power hungry
dictator, Marianne says, Well, did you hear the Koch brothers
are added again, and I'm sharing so what are you talking about?
Well, you can't deny the Koch brothers by the elections with
Adelson.
Yeah, oh, yeah. You saw how good they they Adelson really kick
some butt. Yeah, that worked really well, didn't it? Boy,
those drives President right. Those Koch brothers, they got
Mitt Romney and didn't a good one. He got Newt Gingrich. And
that was Adamson's boy. So those guys are great.
So somehow, this now morphs into Oh, I had I know how it
happened. I in my mailbox shows up and I'm ready for Hillary
sticker bumper sticker, which I'm pretty convinced Armando the
mailman put in there because that's, yeah, he's like,
alright, Armando. That's funny. And I tell the story, and then
it's like, oh, post office horrible losing money. Oh, God.
They don't listen to our show today. So I've been I started to
you know, actually, I kind of liked the United States Postal
Service. You know, it's a it's in the Constitution. It's, you
know, it's it really is very important for privacy of
documentation that Marianne goes, Oh, you go to the post
office. And Mickey loves going to the I have to say our post
office here is it's a draughty but she has you know, Mickey she
goes in she's got everyone wrapped around her finger. You
know, the the big lesbian whose girlfriend or wife is in the
military and yet she's got to every everyone's beck and call
for Mickey by Marianne says, Oh, that post office Oh, yeah, I
love sitting there with all of Darwinism. What all of Darwinism
geez, right. Ah, N N N Okay. Okay, but I gave her a pass
because she she's love she really is lovely and And then
somehow, we get into Islam now now now in our desert? And I
said, Well, it's been it's been very interesting to see what's
going on in Turkey and Syria, and learning a lot about how
things operate. And you know, the Ottoman Empire. And of
course, Mickey and I and we grew up in, and the Netherlands,
we've seen how things have changed. And you know, we talked
about belges. Stan, and, and and what comes back? Oh, well, Islam
is no crazier than Christians. Like, yeah, I think they might
be. No, no, no, no fundamental Christians are just as nutty
that cry, all religions are crazy. Yeah, you got me on that.
But this is something very specific that's going on. Could
not could not get past them, John. And then I made the big
mistake.
Wow, that means that, well, you're not, you know, they are
reflective, of course, of course, of course. And so their
inputs to them, which is would be you know, we know what the
inputs are, must be extremely distorted. Because we don't
really deal with that as much No, and actually deal with it
only as a says they're like, a proxy. For you. Yeah, get a good
sense of this. I'm in the Berkeley area. So I essentially,
it's around me, but they're in my house origins.
And the funny thing is, I still really consider them, my
friends, and I really like them. But I'm
gonna put up with you much longer than I think they will.
And what
always happens is the next day, there's always like, wow, you
know, that was really great conversation. You know, we
really did learn a lot. And you know, thanks for hitting No,
they don't say hit me in the mouth, but they do reflect on
it. But it was too long and they came in and they've been
reprogrammed. And there and they looked, none of them really
looked all that happy.
No, they didn't really have this perspective and point of view.
And with the whole kid thing here is like just the so they're
being depressed or being nagged at by their peers. You know,
we've been they've done something by choice, not
irreversible. But you know, they've kind of chosen this
path. Yeah. And it will do and it seems seems, yeah, for sure.
But, you know, here's, here's the thing about that, if you're
gonna make that move, don't eat. That's why I think the gays can
get away with being like this because their entire milieu is
is is reconfirming. Their beliefs is yes, you're gonna mix
with people with kids. Yes, you're gonna get a lot of flack,
because many people will. You'll hear this a lot from
celebrities. You hear it all the time. It's like, oh, I never
wanted to have kids. But when I had kids, I wouldn't do I would
never, I would always want to have kids forever. Well, it
was also a well, you know, we all came from shitty households.
I said, welcome to The Club, to everyone comes from a shitty
family or family suck in one form or the other. Anyway, so.
So now we're near the end of the evening, and it went downhill.
The professor brought up the downhill, wait for it. The
professor brought up the Tom Perkins letter to regarding the
1%. And I said, Oh, that's interesting. On the show, I took
Tom Perkins side, the eyes could not have rolled further back in
heads. And, and of course, I defended my position. I said,
Look, you know, all I know is that the Germans didn't wake up
one day and go, Hitler's great kill the Jews said that
something something melted must have gone down. And yeah. And
literally, five minutes into this, people are standing up and
like, did I just like run? Did everyone run off because of the
Jew talk? Like, no, no, we're tired. And that was the end.
And you didn't talk about Jew gas?
I didn't. But I said, there's something to be said for any
persecution of any minority at any time. You have to be very
careful, particularly if you're Pooh poohing it. I said Hitler
was a person of the year Man of the Year on Time Magazine in
1935. Or 30 says
he hit Time Magazine squatting TWICE, TWICE. Yeah.
You know, so we were poor students of history. Anyway,
everyone thanks me and they're out there.
Like, you you sound like to me your argumentative. I made it I
had to be I had to be I had to bring up that topic. And I'm on
their side on this. Of course, I
didn't bring it I didn't bring up the Tom Perkins letter. I
responded to bring it up. Who? I'll tell you how it came up. It
came up in regards to because the the artists used to work for
Compaq and that's how and then there's, you know, talking about
old days at Compaq force HP, and that's how Tom Perkins came up.
When I said, you know, and she like Tom Perkins is a moron. I'm
like, Yeah, but so that's how we kind of got into it. And it was
like, you know, John Doerr, no doubt there's a smart guy. I'm
like, No, I had him on my board. I don't think he's all that
smart. And he's okay. Now, it's not like he knows anything.
You know, I've known door for a long time. I mean, I'm not
friends with him by any means. But every time I'm around him, I
don't know if this is with everybody, but he's always
shaking.
And he always Have you ever looked at his fingernails? He's
biting you. Oh, yeah. No, he has to have band aids on his
thumbnail because he chews it all the way off down to like the
bone. It's the most disgusting thing. Yeah, that's there's
something to be said about people to do that. Yeah, so
anyway, I certainly hope that we have another we've already
scheduled our next dinner. So I'm
telling you, you're done. But it is here's your here's why I've
done on the I do real time analysis. When we do when we
talk a lot of stuff is just at the end. Yeah. And in this case,
it was you're revealing that the two guys put themselves in the
corner by having vasectomy I think it was a personal I think
it's something they didn't want everybody that listens to our
show to know about Of course nobody knows who they are. But
that's another that's different. And and I think it's going to
get you're going to eat shit for that.
Well, hopefully it'll happen during the dinner so we'll have
some material for the show.
didn't appreciate you ridiculing Gosh. Sex to me. I pitched voice
I didn't really kill anyone for vasectomy. Nikki did I didn't do
that. Anyway, in the morning to you John C. Dvorak,

entertained and informed during my drudgery at work. I believe
you should share in the fruits of my labours as it is bonus
Time again for me, my wife keeps telling me to donate again.
There you have it, right. So here it is. Please send some job
karma as I'm interviewing for a new job and milk it to see
what's the
same thing the exact same? Well, I can do a little different
combo. I can do the wife Kate. It's just keep up the good work.
All right. That's one Hotmail, baby jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs.
Let's go for jobs. Do you really think they're pissed off? Do you
think they're gonna be mad about the vasectomy thing? Yeah. I
shouldn't have told me.
Fools. Did they tell you they had a vasectomy? On the spot?
Yes. At the dinner they Yes, yes. They know that this dinner
is discussed on the Yes, yes. Well, that's your out.
That's my out. Yeah. That and a bulletproof vest is my out. And
a helmet?
Gives you a little bit. No, no, I have this situation with the
economic hitman. And he says stuff that you know, and once in
a while I go, Well, maybe a jagged sky is. I'm gonna tell
this to all or we have a lot of people that provide us with
information. I'm going to make a blanket statement here. If you
do not want us talking about something,
don't talk to us. Tell us no, don't
talk to us just stop. Well, you could do that too. But you I
will I will bide by a this is not to be discussed in cap and
put that in put that at the top of your note in case we're
reading something live on the air. Put it at the Do you
remember the guy who sent in the thing. And even though I didn't
reveal his name, he was talking about heroin. And I said, Oh,
he's at the bottom is oh, he's an addict. Well, he was an
addict. And we made a joke about it. He got really, really pissed
off about it. You made me sound like an addict. I'm sorry. You
sent me an email,
said you're. So yeah, if you do, we don't use somebody's name,
even though in some situations, that person can be identified.
I'm less concerned about it. Yeah, but
But you're right. If you don't, if you do not want something
discussed, say that I still often if I if I'm thinking about
I'll ask these. Okay, if I use this on the show, I will. But it
saves us a lot of time saves another round of emails and all
that stuff. So please, thing that
you should know is that because we're a public distribution
mechanism that acts as a news outlet. Any mail sent to us is
like letters to the editor. Yeah, true. And they can be used
Yes, with or without your name. But I mean, I was, we're very
circumspect,
we really, we would try very hard so that we made pretty
good, we put and of course, I do PGP and GPG, if you want to send
something. But the funny thing is, ever since I've been doing
encrypted emails, I'd say 99% Of all the emails I've received
that are encrypted are completely not worth encrypting
that, although everything ever again is worth encrypting. I
will say that upfront. But the process for decrypting emails if
you if you haven't verified someone yet for the first time,
you have to go through all this stuff. And of course, I don't
have passwords set automatically to decrypt because that would
kind of defeat the purpose. You know, when someone's banging on
the door. So I said so. It's a little more a little more work
is what it is. So, anyway, onward.
Sir Andrew harms from Durham, North Carolina. Here we go. This

government passes, then you can truly see who's running the
government and your analysis of Pasteles legislation just helps
to bolster that hypotheses all the more please d do Shmi and

he's good man. Did you know that if we were working on a radio?
Yeah, I know. And you also just short one. So you know, so that
was the long one then we just have a shorty to wind things up.

meeting called the production Guy Yeah, call the music bed guy

does a great job as I argued with Exactly,
exactly. Um, I have a couple did you have anything to start off
with? I should actually I should ask you
if you want to change top Newlands Are you under the
Newlands? Yeah, I want to do Newlin because I guess I have
the RT version of that because our key is the one and then we
and the Russians kind of they now they deny they clip this and
you know, nobody knows for sure, but we pretty sure the Russians
that I have a number of meta thoughts about this, but I want
to hear yours first. But
you can scoff at me. Sorry, you want to hear my first you can
scoff at my ideas. I'm not gonna scoff at anything but what is
it? No, no, it is RT report. Is that the one you want me to
play? Yeah, play
that and this will get us started. Alright, that's a long
one. Okay.
Our top story this hour a scandal brewing is Washington's
real stance on Ukraine may have leaked on the web and alleged
phone conversation between USA secret Assistant Secretary of
State Victoria Nuland and the US Ambassador to the Ukraine has
appeared on YouTube. Let's get more from Artis Marina port Nya,
live for us in New York. So Marina, what did the two
allegedly discuss? Well, what
you hear these two high US officials discussing is
literally putting members of the Ukrainian opposition, moving
them around like as if they were playing chess on how to
configure a new government in Ukraine. The US Ambassador to
Ukraine, Geoffrey Pyatt and the US Assistant Secretary of State
Victoria Nuland. Were trying to figure out who would be fit who
would fit best in what position, they said that one of the
opposition leaders yacht Snoop is the guy with the economic
experience and the best governing experience that he's
the guy that should be on the inside. When when they also
mentioned Klitschko, another opposition leader and one more
Sydney book. Those two the two US officials say that those are
the guys that should remain outside of government. They even
referenced Klitschko as an complicated electron. And in the
circumstance of creating a new government, they They said
they've mentioned even troubles that he's having in his marriage
right now, how that could come into play with him having a role
in the EU.
Hold on a second. I have what I thought was the full call. I
have not heard that about the marriage. Have you heard that
bit? Yeah, really.
But we I think, I think the two of us are going to come to
pretty much the same conclusion about this whole thing. Well,
did it in there No, no. 30 more seconds newly formed
Ukrainian government. They spoke about keeping the moderate
Democrats together. They also spoke about the fact that they
need something to make their plan stick once they a new
government is formed. If it starts gaining altitude, they
need some kind of, you know, symbolism beat a un figure to
come into Ukraine. Give a nod to it. They say if that doesn't
happen, they said that the Russians could come in and
torpedo any plans the US is now putting in place for the new
Ukrainian government. Okay.
All right. Now, of course, I left out the the EU commentary
because I think that was a slightly a distraction. But
anyway, well, the the real distraction, of course, is the
actual fact the EU that she says that's what yes, that of course
is the is the actual distraction. I wanted to just go
to the very end of that call. I have it here I have the whole
thing in the show notes. I just wanted to go to the very end to
understand I heard some things I just want to make sure that I'm
hearing the same things that you were hearing. And, and in
general, you're here the way these people talk. It's almost
like you and I wrote this skit. You know, it's like what do you
think yet should do ask Screw that guy. You know, he should
stay home. We should study his history is power political
tradecraft there. We could have literally written this phone
call. That's and particularly for just a fact the EU, which is
how these people talk. And she and Victoria Nuland is a
longtime elitist and Council on Foreign Relations. She's been in
intelligence I think she was in. She might have even been in the
agency, I think for a while. Which kind of makes sense with
backgrounds. very spooky.
Can you just check for a second while I while I wrap this up?
Was she in the CIA? I just had no, she was right. Okay. And you
know,
the Sakhi was
Psaki. Right. So here's so here's the fuck the EU but then
listen to what she's saying about. She talks about Jake
Sullivan, who is Joe Biden's national security adviser. She
talks about Biden himself and essentially what what I hear her
say and then there's one word I want to focus your attention on.
She's saying to the ambassador, I spoke to Jake No problem we
got we got Biden to give the current Prime Minister an
attaboy, which is, we I've seen this in Silicon Valley, you did
a good job, you get an attaboy, you get $500 and attaboys? Like
a little rub on the head, give an attaboy to the Prime
Minister. So the playing all sides of this?
No, exactly. And I think we've got to do something to make it
stick together because you can be pretty sure that if it does,
if it does start to gain altitude, the Russians will be
working behind the scenes to try to torpedo it.
I love the mixed metaphor there. By the way, that's very strange.
If it gains altitude, we're gonna shoot a torpedo at it.
Yeah. That's a good, good.
And again, the fact that this is out there right now, I'm still
trying to figure out in my mind, why Yana COVID that, but in the
meantime, there's a Party of Regions faction meeting going on
right now. And I'm sure there's a lively argument going on in
that group at this point. But anyway, we could, we could land
jelly set up on this one if we move fast. So let me work on,
let me work on Klitschko and if you can just keep I think we
want to try to get somebody within international personality
to come out here and help to midwife this thing,
then. Yeah, so then just so you know, this is very clear.
They've got the Dutch, former Dutch Ambassador to Ukraine who
wrote a book about Ukraine. He that's the scary guy who they're
going to bring in along with Ban Ki Moon. So they're literally
saying, you know, we've got cover, we've got, you know, the
United Nations is going to help us out. They're going to do the
whole the whole statecraft, trade craft thing of essentially
putting together the government that the United States wants.
But here's the end is interesting. The other
issue is some kind of outreach to Yanukovych, but we probably
he's asking for outreach, the Aniko, which was the current
Prime Minister spawned
that tomorrow as we see how things start to fall into place.
So on that piece, Jeff, when I wrote the note solitons, come
back to me VFR saying you need Biden and I said probably
tomorrow for an attaboy and to get the deeds to stick. Biden's
willing.
Now she says to get the deeds to stick I googled myself nothing I
could not what I thought this might mean, the deeds would that
be the drilling right deeds? What other deeds? could she
possibly mean that need to stick?
I don't know. But somebody that's overhearing this knows.
And let me put right here where I what I think is going on as my
basic meta thesis on this. And this was triggered by a note
that somebody sent me referencing some guy can't
remember it, but I guess it's not going to be in the show
notes. But it was, it's a News Analysis site where the guy's
going on credit condemning Nuland for being an idiot
because she must know that these conversations are being taped.
And once he said that, I said, Oh, okay. Now he didn't get this
but as soon as he said it, I got it. This is rehearsed. This is
this was meant to be intercepted. This was they, they
got lucky when the Russians ran it out. But this was a message
to the Russians listening, to try to turn the Congress to try
to manipulate the situation. The fact that we went public, I
think was just a bonus. And it got the benefit of the fuck the
EU and all that other stuff. And the reason I suggested this
whole thing is rehearsed. It was designed to be overheard, it was
designed to be snooped on because they there's no way that
they in fact, this guy was right. There's no way that
people at this level don't know they're being snooped on. So
this was a this whole thing is a rigged bullshit conversation
that was designed for the Russians to listen to, to tweak
them a certain way to push them this way or that way. Or to get
some sort of result. The rest the fact that it went public is
just a triple bonus, they couldn't have asked for a better
situation. Now they've got their message out there. We don't know
what they're really trying to accomplish. Are they telling us
that Klitschko is, is not to be one of the governors because
they want him to actually be the governor? Or are they they
saying fuck the EU, because they actually want the EU to get more
involved and actually take in the Ukraine, which has got to be
a great benefit for us, because the Ukraine is, is literally a
terrible place. And it would be just dynamite for him to become
part of the EU. And
it's like, hey, it's like, Hey, want some cancer?
And so you have, you don't know it, but if you look at it from
the perspective that this is bullcrap, and they're just
talking to be heard to be listened to to be eved
eavesdropped upon, and the whole thing is manipulation at some
very high level. And I just talking to buzzkill Jr about
this and I said, here's the key this my my thesis may be wrong.
But if Victoria Nuland doesn't resign or quit or get
reprimanded, then my thesis is absolutely correct. And I've
seen no evidence that she's in the hot seat for this.
I like it. I came to that conclusion and another one Oh,
And it was mainly based on this soundbite from her that I
thought they thought there might be one other possibility
other than to say it was pretty impressive. tradecraft the audio
was extremely clear.
So this is a giveaway to me. I thought it's also possible this
was an F you from one of the agencies to the to state so that
maybe NSA is kicking back at state slash CIA. possible and I
don't know I don't just to say I we can listen to anybody
we can that's a possibility. Could you Oh, somebody suggested
was when a snowdon's possibly worse, somebody just somebody in
the NSA, but I think it was too pointed. I like that idea that
somebody's pulling this knowledge, but I think they
could have found something better than this. And this is
really pointed. It's about one thing and one thing only it's
not about their sex life. It's not about anything really
embarrassing. It's about well, Brenda you could
it Yeah, but it is embarrassing to Nuland who is definitely all
in all state she'll it's embarrassing to Biden, because
he's treated like a you know like a like a fluffer Come on,
because embarrassing
the new Newland at all
that know the fuck to EU that's embarrassing to her. That's
that was done on purpose
here. So in the of course, I watched all of the State
Department press briefings, and you can always count on on some
good questions there. I of course, Matt was asking some
some interesting questions, but then a shot or Ashraf, whatever
his name is
I forget his name. Yeah, the guy sounds like Matt. No, he's
the guy in the back. He's kind of the soft spoken guy.
There's a guy in the front. That sounds like mad. Yeah, this is a
different guy on the
issue of how you discuss things. Do State Department officials
routinely use encrypted phones, mobile phones for their
conversations so that comments like that one do not become
public?
Well, Archer, for obvious reasons, I can't outline for you
everything that we do, I can tell you that data encryption is
available for all date Department of State employee
issue issued government owns BlackBerry devices, regardless
of rank. All Department of State's government owned
BlackBerry devices have data encryption. However, they don't
have voice encryption. And of course, as you know, I know you
didn't ask this. But just to add one more additional point call
was interesting when when the spokesman, volunteers
information
processing and classified conversation on a personal
digital assistant devices prohibited and in accordance
with department policy, which of course is not what this was. But
now he's going I like this guy. By the
way. This guy's This is the guy with this guy's got voices like
Matt. No. Yes, no. When him and Matt are talking to back and
forth. It's you can't tell who's what's talking. Here's Matt. All
right. It's not we're in the back. Here's
here's Matt. Tory, his phone call.
Okay, now go to him.
So they don't have voice encryption.
The same Cadency. Right. But it's noticeably different.
So nobody at the State Department has a phone where
their voice, a mobile phone where their voice can be
encrypted.
I'm not going to outline it further. For obvious reasons. I
think
one obvious reason why did you say of course, we're our shits
locked up
to convey every step we take and every precaution we take. That's
the information I can provide to all of you does the
Secretary. And I think it's perfectly reasonable to ask if
the Secretary of State has a mobile phone or access to mobile
phone near him or her?
This is a good question. I think it's very normal question. Does
the Secretary of State communicate on encrypted phone
lines with voice encryption?
I think it's perfectly reasonable to ask but I think
it's perfectly reasonable not to answer either. So
no, this is really weird. That's why I take this like, why is
that? And he's not having an either?
Well, no, if you're not entering that about the Secretary of
State, it leaves open the possibility that he or she does
not in fact have access to an encrypted cell phone, which
would suggest that all kind
of this is this plays into your theory. John, did their honey
potting this thing? Yeah, yeah. Carrie doesn't have any
encryption either. Yeah, yeah. Take a listen there honey
potting
Secret, Top Secret, classified private comments that he or she
might make could be accessed by the intelligence service,
classified processing and classified conversation on a
personal digital assistant device is prohibited beyond
that, and all I'm conveying is that we're not going to outline
every step and precaution we've taken what we have access to
whether that's the Secretary or anyone else in
the industry. I think she's honey potting. Now that I hear
your theory I'm Thinking. Yeah, no, no, no, ma'am. We don't have
any of them. We can't tell you about that.
Yeah, no, this is very suspicious in every way.
Guy, I'm in agreement.
And she was totally impressed with the trade craft. Yeah.
Quality of the call.
Let's listen to that again, because that was that was she
saying that in a certain way that bugged me other than
to say, it was pretty impressive. tradecraft, the
audio was extremely clear.
What does she mean? Yeah, it was clear. It was very, very clear.
What is she trying to say?
I think she may be condemning our own people for not getting
shit. We get stoned. You made it sound probably not. What is
this? What are the Russians up to? No,
I think I think it's different. Like, I think what she's saying
is, you made it sound too good. To make it sound like you're
tapping us. For Christ's sakes. It sounds like,
No, you might be right. It's kind of a reverse. Like, it
sounds like you're on the say, you guys sounds like you're on a
conference call with us in the room. By the way, it was
probably we're on a conference call. That's what it was how
that's exactly how it sounds. Because you hear if you listen
to the if you listen to the to the recording, both her and the
ambassadors are equal in quality. Hey, listen, I think
we're in that sounds like a conference call. It's a third
party conference calling
of one of those conference systems. Yeah.
Yeah. Are those free ones one 800 conference call? Problem
probably. I like your theory, I like it. I, I really wanted to
try and shoehorn it into mine, but I think yours is much better
makes a lot of sense. Now that the fact that she's not
resigning or getting fired, I mean, that's kind of par for the
course of State Department. You can have your ambassador killed
and you don't have to resign. Now, you just another job
different different models, move to another job. And
I think the thing that has to be done now is to re evaluate what
is being said with it in mind that this could all be just
miss. misdirection. disinformation. They're saying
one thing because they want the Russians to do something else.
And then if you want to go one step higher, maybe the Russians
actually sense that this is because they're not idiots. They
sense that this is bull crap. And that's why they released the
thing in the first place. I want to fishy about this whole thing.
Let's face it,
I want to stick with your theory. Because essentially, it
is a move. And Putin hat is at Is it his move, he has to make a
move. If he doesn't, just from a bomb, taking my shirt off and
hunting down this tiger perspective, he has to do
something it's like it's like poking the poking the gorilla
through the cage with a with a with a pencil. But you think he
has to say something?
He's gonna have to Well, I don't know that you watch him in the
Olympics. When they have he was seated at the middle of course.
Yes, of course. He had some he was thinking about something. He
looked preoccupied to me.
Um, well, you can never tell what these guys
are. And he's pretty stone faced, generally speaking, but I
don't know. i Yeah, he has to do something he has this clearly
justifies some form of intervention in Ukraine. He has
to make a move. Even the president. Wow, it's coming.
It's kind of coming together. Do you? Did you see the I don't
have a clip of it. The President was interviewed by Bob Costas,
which was a very funny interview, because Bob Costas
has like the stink eye and when eyes closed, and the eyes
closed, because he got an infection, and the President
looks like he's been smoking. 15 doobies.
Yeah, the President's everyone thinks he was stoned. I don't
think he was stoned.
But he looked tired for sure. And at the very end, the
President says, Well, you know, Putin, he likes to sit there and
you play the tough guy. You know, that's kind of his shtick.
Can you imagine someone saying that about our president? Hey,
being a being a stoner douchebag as a Stick? Stick. I think
they're poking him. And if so, I have to say, bravo. Very, very
smart move.
And also give the EU a little what is
and they deserve that. No, I
suppose. Newlands Great. Yeah, I'd
have to say she's great. She really if that really was set up
that way and I I think she has it in her. She's been around and
let's look did you look her up or not?
Yeah. Oh, no, I did no. agency but she everything else is
smells of it. And if you got yet to actually you have to go look
it up. You have to go to the Wikipedia and look at just to
see her picture in Wikipedia.
Alright everyone do this at home.
If you're in the picture. This is a picture of a girl who's
having too much It's fun.
And it's funny because she she's she's very she's very cute but
when you see her whole body which we haven't really seen
because she's always behind the lectern, she said like Humpty
Dumpty, but I'm so sorry to say it I mean I don't like that she
could use a little she could she could get on she could do a
little spin class. Okay daughter of Yale bioethics and medicine
Professor Okay. Coat Rosemary Hall is that A is that like some
huge like, elite. Once you went to Brown okay brown brown is
spook haven't showed I have no idea coat coat showed she speaks
Russian French and some Chinese know that. The senior officer at
Foreign Service, spoke Hello worked for both Democratic and
Republican during the Bill Clinton and she was chief of
staff to Secretary of State Strobe Talbott. W Bush principal
deputy foreign policy adviser to Cheney. Okay, she's in the
zombie crew, US ambassador to NATO. That's the military
industrial complex. A special envoy for the conventional Armed
Forces in Europe. Yeah, she's
in terms of manipulation. You have to remember she's married
to Robert Kagan. Yeah, that's the Brookings guy. He's the
founder of the Project for the New American Century of right
wing. neocon.
These are the guys that said we need a new Pearl Harbour. Yeah,
before 911 took fright. Unfortunately, they wrote that
before 911 G. And we need to new 911 and we need to blow up Syria
that's also in the eye. You know, I need to get that I need
to review those documents again that the P neck because there's
there's a lot of stuff in there that I think is happening now. I
know Syria was listed in peanut because we have to verbalise it
wouldn't surprise me if there's something in there about Ukraine
and Belarus and all these other kind of in between countries. I
had a clip of Matt, I don't remember what it is. Let me just
listen for a second. He was bitching about something in
regards to this as well,
um, yesterday and Korea's phone call. You've seen the comments
from Chancellor Merkel's spokesperson saying that this
was unacceptable. Do you? Do you have any thoughts on that? Do
you agree?
Well, I think if you were to if Toria. Were standing back here,
again, she would convey to you that she apologised, obviously,
because that's not doesn't reflect how she feels about our
relationship with the EU. It's also important to note that
she's been close touch with EU officials since then, not about
this, but about work we're doing together on Ukraine. So we have
a long and enduring relationship with Germany. The Secretary was
just there last week, as you know, and discussed a range of
bilateral issues we work on and we expect we'll be back to
business as usual with them as well.
Right. But she in the phone call. She did have to say
Germany.
Exactly. Yes.
I love Matt. He's really good. I
felt the same way. And Merkel, you say? You say fuck the EU,
which is what she said.
And why is Merkel all of a sudden jump up?
She was personally offended. Because that was as I used to
tell it in the big magazines that was telling that
was telling chilling yet telling totally you
I am familiar with what she said.
So it's a broader thing here. I mean, what is your what is your
response? I mean, do you think that Merkel is the Germans are
taking this blowing this out of proportion? I mean, what do you
what would your response be to her? Is it the diplomatic
equivalent of like, lighten up angle or something? What?
I think I would I think we're just conveying that obviously
we've moved forward in our relationship with the EU and
blah blah blah blah blah. All right. We close it out.
Well, I do have one thing because I just I just not better
than that clip. But I do have one more little clip here that
came from the also Pathak is Saki whatever name is I keep
saying Pataki when it's Saki Saki please talk to the P
sub saga Jim Saki. And by the way, they're doing a different
angle on her that you must look at the video. She has her hair
she had no she has kind of one of those. You know what is used
to be like a Posh Spice now. What's her name? Victoria
Beckham. Yeah, it's kind of cut down so it's longer in the front
but it's a it's a very straight edge cut. And they're they're
catching her on a different angle, which I'm sure is someone
thought about. She looks kind of cute in his shots interesting
because she's Jen. She worked for the agency. So she looks
like she's a brilliant field agents. She's got all these
different looks. You'd never recognise her on the street.
She's perfect. She's redhead
so she has no soul which is great for her for being
so you can tell When she tries to be funny now this neck this
thing I got this Sakis I want to set it up this was the this is
actually two clips put together. This was the clip that or took
there were two clips with the with the little conversation in
between used on our tea. So our tea when they were doing their
package, believe that these were the most important clips and one
of them just seemed to ridicule a woman for having no sense of
humour with that stupid joke about the fishing boat. And and
I just thought it was again telling that they would think
these clips from because you had different clips completely I
thought you were gonna actually have one this part of one of
yours. But generally the RT people for some reason thought
this was important.
It's been in close contact with you. Hi, Representative Ashton
also let me convey that she has been in contact with her EU
counterparts and and of course has apologised. But for these
reported comments, of course,
you're not confirming that the comments are actually I saw this
is very funny. She's
I'm just not going to speak to a private diplomatic conversation.
But I'm obviously speaking to the content of the reports. You
may know the story of how she lived on a Russian vote for
about eight months when she was 23. And she learned how to
perfect perhaps certain words and a couple of languages. So
perhaps it speaks to that more than a pervasive viewpoint.
You're not suggesting that she has a predisposition against
Russia. I was suggesting that she learned Russian curse words
and curse words on English. I was making a joke about her
learning curse words on efficient.
Okay. All right. memo to Department of State. We'll do
the jokes.
Unbelievable. And I did like the one woman who took it out of
God. Does this mean she hates the Russians?
Is Beautiful yet work is beautiful. Hey, meanwhile, how
about all those athletes protesting about about the gays?
Hmm Yeah, yeah, exactly. Nothing happening. Let's close this
segment. Off laughing This is what I'll say.
To you, I love that. That's one of our better ones. That's an
evergreen.
So it's a gem. Really, it
really is nice that dozens of gay protesters were arrested
John two days ago in Idaho.
They had had to play this clip. This is from the gay news
because Andy Homburg got a copy of the thing he looked like he
was on the show
and Andy home got a copy of the thing what is this? What do you
have the
our white paper our white paper Oh, and he looked he would never
respond to it but he would look perplexed during that because
they were doing their like your Obama bots. You have a
perspective and you stick with it and screw the facts Okay, and
he just didn't seem himself but this I have to play this as the
clip that they were discussing some of the some company got mad
and they pulled out their sponsorship and some nobodies I
don't even remember who they were that I don't have the clip
of their name but he does have another pro he mentioned a
nother major protest which I will then describe for you
because of a picture was flashed on the screen
IOC sponsors or, you know, the major Olympic sponsors there but
they're the first major corporation to condemn the anti
gay laws in Russia. The first you'd think by now someone
corporation would have condemned these laws, also condemning it
second Corporation DARIAH University, which you see
advertising on TV and you think is cheesy, but in fact, many
Olympic athletes are students of Jabra University. So there was a
protest
against all this in London. We have a picture of it. They did
Swan Lake, outside the Russian embassy there in protest of the
Sochi Olympics and the anti gay laws in Russia. Also in London
out of London UK observer is calling for same sex kissing
from the podium in Sochi and the waving of rainbow flags.
Yeah, British government announced
Yeah, this is not going to happen people
know and it's and it's actually ludicrous. Now that they did
this protest in front of the Russian Embassy in London. For
people
Swan Lake with four people four people with
blue tights and two Jews with stuff written across their chest
and they were dancing around these four people and this is
newsworthy So yeah, this is all this is. This is a failed in my
opinion. Well,
it's a fail, but it's I think it's wildly successful. Brian
here Yeah, well yes here Brian the the gay Crusader. So this is
his first real journey into the world that we live in every
single day. And you know, he sends me a story in our
apparently you know, grinder you ever heard of grinder the app
Grindr PRI NDR Oh, right,
right. Grindr is the Gay,
gay gay hookup app. And it's you know, the uses geolocation, and
I'm reliably informed is
for stalkers. This is never a heterosexual version of this has
never appeared because it would be probably
but for for the gay guys out here, it's very, very popular.
And there's a version of this in Russia. And the Daily Mail
wrote, this whole article is totally bogus. And of course, if
you use this app in Russia, it pops up and says you can be
arrested because you know you're propagating gay propaganda
section six with a que by the way, not even they even misspelt
it. And he said they have all these screenshots. You know this
there's a story a day here in the United States. And everybody
is just so all in and I've I've given up. I'm not like I'm not
going to tell anybody. I think I gave up right away. Yeah, well,
I still had you know, I you know me, I'm an idealist. John,
you can pass the thing around I think this little paper and I
yeah,
that's that's the best thing. And if people read it great. We
did get a nice email back from the to Yale professors who had
written a an op ed in the Washington Post, saying, hey,
you know, do you know how bad it is in America? Are you crazy? It
was almost like they read the white paper they hadn't Brian
sent it to them. And they went, Oh, crap, this is great. And
then that kind of follow it up, because you know, they got
tenure, they don't want to ruin their careers. No, no one wants
to do that's why this is why the only reason why we can do this.
We're the only people who can do this. And then push the rise and
then push it right this is funny. Pussy Riot did a show
with Madonna at Amnesty International, which of course
is State Department run and funded. So they're all in it's
all hate Russia. And this is the liberated duo but the rest of
the band has disowned them. He said these are these kids.
They're not even allowed to use the name Pussy Riot. They're not
real they've been hijacked.
I didn't know this. Yeah,
let me see if I Yeah, it's in the show notes. Pretty funny.
Okay, six members of Russian rock punk rock collective Pussy
Riot have signed an open letter in cystic Maria Alejo kina and
not Zayn tolko. Novia not the building should not be billed as
members. It said the two had forgotten about the aspirations
and ideals of our group. The pair performed alongside Madonna
at a concert in New York on Wednesday. Of course Madonna is
always there and she and she means well, but she's misguided.
These two were jailed for two years after singing a protest
song in Moscow. I known as Masha and Nadia. The six members that
collective sign the letter and all their names. Say the group
belong to a leftist anti capitalist ideology, but the
pair had become institutionalised advocates of
prisoners rights. Unfortunately for us, they're being so carried
away with the problems in Russian prisons they completely
forgot about the aspirations and ideals of our group. Feminism
separate separatists resistance fight against author
Victorianism authoritarianism and first oratory authority
theory moratorium ism hints at personality called all of which
is a matter of fact was the cause for their unjust
punishment and to say hey, we don't our performance are always
illegal stage only in unpredictable locations. We
would never do a setup thing build as here's Pussy Riot right
on girls. Absolutely. This is illegal performance. So they've
been disowned the not even Pussy Riot.
Well the thing is, though, you have to say they've got their
taste of prison and then they saw the injustice is and now
that they're they're actually doing something that's not just
a general bullcrap, you know, political statement were against
it. They're actually focusing now which I think is a probably
a positive thing for those two women. Okay, I think it's better
I think you're better off if you're one of these types is
activists to find a problem and focus on it and do something
about it rather than just bitch. Yeah, well, that's true
too, anyway, so for me the games are ruined if there's too much
to show too much terrorism targeted now too much terrorism
talk your widows 2.0 Black Widows 2.0 You know, we're all
going to blow up it's just you know, gay this gay that by the
way, did you catch the opening song and this I thought was the
funniest. When when they opened the ceremony, the song was by a
group called tattoo. A familiar with tattoo. No Google T at you
In 2000, they had a huge hit. And they're not really lesbians,
but they portray lesbians in their video clip that for
Russian, Russian lesbians. This is like the ultimate fu like hey
West. Here's our here's our lesbian song.
Oh, yeah, they look like pretend lesbians. Right, but I thought
that was cool. Well, the other thing is they had in the second
half where they had the really spectacular showing after they
marched all these athletes out. They had a just an outrageously
gay ballet that they presented. I don't remember which ballet it
was. But there was this one ballerina and she was flirting
with these two guys a fat guy and as Anna soldier, and then
the fat guy, the soldier we're gonna get together, they look
like they're going to become gay lovers. And then she broke them
up. And then there was a third guy who looked like a guy from
the YMCA group of village village people and he was in
there and now that we have in these guys, there was three guys
and a girl looks like some sort of a sexual thing. And it was
just all it was just the nobody of course they know to
make a suggestion. Can I make a suggestion? Get out of the house
a little more. Really? Like I don't know what you're seeing
and all of this. I'm
telling you I could I actually have it. I kept it on the DVR
because I knew you'd say somebody that I'm going to send
it to you on a DVD I want you to tell me I'm wrong about this.
Okay, it was a homo erotic ballet.
That's Hello. It's ballet. Ballet is by definition
homoerotic.
Oh, this was over the top and it's beautiful.
Although I find the ballet sometimes I can do Broadway
musicals no problem ballet gets a little old for me it's all
bright pyridium And I liked the athleticism of it all but I look
at those guys pants I'm like why am I sitting here? I'm inferior
it's completely inferior I'm
a loser using SOCKS
Oh that's that's that's not true
well they just guys workout a lot
Yeah, that should be it I don't work out at all I'm done that
bike all the time trying to go come on grow grow grow grow. I
see we both got the well I might clip is titled Sarajevo your
clip is called Bosnia is next. Let me see. I'll play yours
first
man. Just a short clip.
Does the headlines this hour here on Paul's man gasps I'm
shown about Acharya. Thanks for joining us. Protesters fought
with riot police and bosses major cities and the third
straight day of unrest. Large crowds set fire to government
buildings, including the presidential palace. Around 145
people were injured more than half of them policemen. No play
mine
situation at the moment is arguably is a pretty tense,
especially in the city centre. The entrance and the some parts
of the presidency the famous presidency buildings are on
fire. Every single police vehicle in around has been also
burned down. And the looting and robbery is taking place in the
centre of salary, including the very popular shopping mall in
the heart of the town. To my mind, there are two major
reasons for these protests. This is the poverty and injustice.
The Bosnia has more than 40% of unemployment rate. And it's the
number one for the production in Europe. The people are very
unsatisfied with it and they are the main thing change is
demanding law to take place.
Yeah, verbalization I think is this
the like the white house on fire? Yeah, you know,
something's up. Yeah. So that's yeah, verbalization
verbalizations probably needed.
A Bosnia, they just got done being mobilised?
Well, they weren't verbalised Enough.
It's very, very sad.
And we can bring our guys in there to rebuild this thing in
the in the so it looks like another Bechtel operation. You
know, they're these modern cities that we're putting up
here. And they're like, before the Chinese do, I guess,
based on our previous conversation about heroin and
fentanyl and Narcan, we received a couple of emails, which I
think would be kind of interesting to go through. It's
kind of off the news. But you know, once the Olympics are, are
over, then we'll get back I guess, Hoffman, you know. We got
the Academy Awards coming up. So it'll be talked about again,
Oh, yeah. They have a big tribute to him.
So he's one of our producers. He says. Most people I know that
are addicted. And as it turns out, we have a fair amount of
people who have had or are having their experiences with
all kinds of narcotics legal and illegal and also Narcan Um, but
this particular producer says, most people I know that are
addicted had their first exposure to opiates at the
dentist. Vikon is the number one prescribed drug in the country,
generic name hydrocodone. They get you hooked. If you want to
get clean, you have to get addicted to another drug like
Suboxone or methadone. And he goes on to say doctors just a
bit like everybody else just got to got to keep pushing it all
the way through. And I found that to be interesting that
Vikatan would be the gateway drug.
Yeah, don't you think? So? I've had vikan. I can take a pill
once in a while.
But I literally got it from the dentist, which is kind of funny,
but I didn't get hooked on it or anything. But here's the story
that that turned me on the most. And I was of course, my one of
my part of my thesis is that perhaps we are poisoning the
heroin supply to get people back to the expensive
pharmaceuticals. It turns out in 1926, the United States
Government poisoned alcohol, it which resulted in 30,000 people
dying, I think, in like a month to to get people off of the
illegal stuff. And prepared for you know, get them out of the
speakeasies and to prepare them to either, I guess when the 21st
Amendment was passed, when was that passed? That was?
I don't know exactly. After World War One. I think
y'all are both Yeah, both. But the this article very clearly,
because of course, there's a lot of denaturing of alcohol so
people couldn't just take you know, there was alcohol around
but the the government and states of course, would poison
it, but denature it so that it wouldn't really be tasty or
drinkable at all. But this article very clearly lays out
how the government was complicit in actually poisoning alcohol to
get people to not use the illegal product, which I didn't
know they had done.
I didn't know that till right now, but it doesn't surprise me.
It's classic government looking out for you. Employees in the
public. Of course, maybe that'll help our cause in the
70s the government sprayed the Mexican marijuana fields with
paraquat
right, which is toxic. paraquat is interesting I used to when I
was worked at the as an air pollution inspector I had the
standard Standard Oil Chevron chemicals made paraquat and the
stuff was just I don't even know if they make any more the stuff
was unfortunately, it was a nasty product because it looked
it had the consistency looked like Coca Cola. And then every
year the number of people died because they saw it in a bottle
or something and they thought it was coke. And just one little
sip of in your debt. You're done. Anyway, onward.
Yeah. So I thought that was interesting to note that that is
not foreign for our government to poison the supply to get
people off of it. And I was watching the McLaughlin group.
And normally Eleanor is a total twat. She She and I don't have a
clip of her because she was just so good. It wasn't even funny.
She admits she had everything she had it down. She's like
people are getting hooked on on prescription drugs. They either
the doctor takes them off or whatever. It's just cheaper for
them to go to Harrow. She had it completely down. She knew
exactly what was going on. Pat Buchanan, on the other hand, is
the either he's a total moron. Possible. Or he's lying,
purposely outlawing how we've saved some people from taking
when it ain't gonna say
you wouldn't. You will probably not know this, but the UN has
been sounding the alarm about increased opium production in
Afghanistan. But the White House did not connect the dots forget
the
UN for heaven's sakes, everybody knows that the frankly, you
know, finished off the drug business and in Afghanistan, the
Taliban outlawed it and burned up all their fields and
everything. Population decided now they embrace the poppy
fields because he really think that's true.
Yes, I don't know what he thinks the guy's unbelievable. He was
he ran for president. That's yeah.
Well, okay, then. Yes, he must believe it because that's about
the level of the intelligence of our of our presidents. Yeah,
yeah. Anyway, so just to finalise my addiction segment
here. I have been searching for some backup to my thesis that
Facebook is a gateway drug. Ah, And I have found a Harvard
study, very interesting, who did MRI scans. And they did MRI
scans of people anticipates a lot of it's about the
anticipation by the way of getting a notification that
someone has commented on your thing or you're like, but the
MRI scans of patients waiting for Facebook feedback and
playing a slot machine, and those using cocaine look exactly
the same.
That makes sense self disclosure. And the people who
are Facebook addicts seem to have an addictive personality to
begin with. Yeah,
I don't know. I don't have any. No, I have no research on that
yet. But I did get this. This is from the office from the MIT No,
this is the Harvard study. self disclosure is strongly
associated. self disclosure, this is what you do on Facebook
self disclosure, strongly associated with increased
activation in brain regions that form the missile limbic dopamine
system, including the nucleus accumbens, and ventral tegmental
area. People were even willing to forego money to disclose
about themselves. So my thesis and and I think what's kind of
interesting, if you have a friend or a family member who
uses Facebook, and they're on it a lot, look over their shoulder,
that just hey, can I just watch what you scroll through your
newsfeed and observe what they're doing? Because what you
will see is that nothing you will see there is of any
interest to you, zero. And I'm convinced if they if I were to
do what I'm, if I was doing Facebook, and someone else would
look who's a Facebook addict, they would find nothing of
interest because it's not about actually what you're reading. It
is 80% about affirmation, being made to feel good, because you
have a lousy life and you're depressed, and you're when the
Olympics suck, and then you know that you're having a vasectomy,
whatever the problem is, and it's a lot more these days.
Facebook is a drug, it functions like a drug, where you post
something about yourself, which is always a lie. Amazing
cupcake. beautiful sunrise,
I love this analysis of yours up for this, by the way, nothing is
funnier.
I really believe.
No, you get serious. That's why it's so good. Because everything
you say is accurate. And I have Well, I was gonna say I don't
use Facebook, but I know people who do I said it before. And
yeah, I could. This all makes nothing but sense to me. One of
the reasons I dislike it so much Me too.
Me too. And because I have and Twitter is not the same. By the
way, it is not the same. Because the first thing you do is you
you collect your friends, right? This is not really broadcasting.
This is because if you're if you do something on Twitter, you get
retweets, whoo, Big whoop. But you want your friends and your
family and your distant friends who are fans, you can have more
than 5000. And you and you and by the you rank them, you know
is like you have acquaintances, unpaid acquaintances. So you'll
see their stuff more often. And I think this is why Google Plus
is not working. Because you need this the plus one they tried to
do that. But they've messed up the whole friend thing with the
circles. That's where Google Plus they didn't understand. And
I think Facebook, Zuckerberg is a genius. If you've never seen
the movie or heard the history, they started with this, they
started they started this thing out, making it with algorithms,
if you saw the movie drew the algorithm on the on the window,
so that you would see people that you would be attracted to
would be interested in. And so they're very, very smart. And
they just they made this crack this drug. It's like Snow Crash.
No, it really is. Excuse me, something my throat, it truly is
built to trigger your mechanism trigger your brain, I'm very
curious how paper is going to work, which is their new app, I
haven't played with it at all. Because it looks like that is
much more of a consumption versus what is really the drug.
And that is the post something about your lousy miserable life,
you have nothing to say, then you can always post one of those
pictures of a kitten or some joke or a link to something
unbelievable you've created so that people will then reshare
it. And like it and I know a lot of people and friends on
Facebook are very, very smart people. And I can see they're
depressed, they are depressed and they need the feedback loop.
It's a necessity. And it's very, very unhealthy in my opinion,
right Very, very unhealthy. And particularly if like most teens,
you like drinking energy drinks, you know, or add some red bull
to that you're hyping. Your whole body is up just going
nuts. And you get this new this little Oh, I gotta like, Oh, I
got a comment. And by the way likes and you can use John maybe
you can observe this if you know anyone who has Facebook. So
people will scroll through their timeline and when they really
can't be bothered to make a comment or you know, but they
really do want that person to like them later. You click like,
I gotta click like otherwise he won't like my stuff.
Ya know, the whole like thing I think is somewhat nauseating.
Like us on Facebook. And the other thing I've said it before
I'll say it again because I like saying it, which is I hate any,
any website or, or initiative or software that says Sign in using
Facebook. And I've run into ones that won't let you sign in using
anything you have to have Facebook bullcrap.
Yeah, this happens a lot other apps that you can't but that
that's that's because they would
another app wants you to do that it makes no sense does.
Because when you do that, it says to me, oh, then you need to
do a little research in the in the development programme. If
you do that, you get all this information about these people
because you get to have all their the all the all the things
they've posted their movies, their preferences, their sexual
preferences, their status, their school, their friends, their
friends, information, you should look it up, if you use the
Facebook login, and you're in the developer programme, you get
so much info I mean tonnes of it. And that's that's why they
do it man. And it's sure there's some ease of use. But really,
it's all about just getting information so that you can you
know, satisfy your venture capital investors
that I when I met some site that's that's you know, signing
on Facebook, they want me to sign in on Facebook so they can
further exploit me or get book on me or figure out well, yeah,
let me let me ask you I mean, let's look at it let's look at
the equation differently you're getting a free thing that
someone developed someone put money into probably venture
capital or angel investors. They really want to be purchased by
Facebook because that's the only way out these days yeah, you
getting the free shiny trinket
I'm getting free nothing it's always always pay somehow
Exactly. Free thing doesn't work. I'm gonna show us and move
by donation to know imagine all the Oh yeah, that'd be fun
yeah, you're right. It does not work very well.
Well, what works is that if you have people like our great
producers who come in and help us finance the show by being
coming producers, then it works that way, but it did. It's not
free. And it shouldn't be. Oh, it's value. Oh, we'll start with
out of Waterloo, Ontario 12345

a moment there. Yeah.
I want to see what he does have a note I don't we're not going

a second what is this note here and listen to your show for a
while is my first donation hesitated a long time being a
Christian. I wondered if it was wrong to donate to you because
of your stance on homosexuality and your non belief in Christ.
Just being honest. But I thought that I should give you a little
something for the information you provide along with the
pleasure I have listening to your show, in spite of our
differences of opinions on these matters. I'm sure you understand
the reason homosexuality and sexual diversity is promoted by
the elites is simply to undermine society, and they
being Satanists. You would expect them to demonise
Christianity as they do. But I tell you what, when you become a
born again, Christian Adam, I will donate $50 Every month I
hope this message doesn't upset you but these values are truly
important to me. Adam whatever you do, do not become a Satanist
cheers from Alberta where the money is Max.
I sent a note to him telling and quoted some some scripture
biblical scripture quotations against the sort of judgement
but it's another story and he you were neither one of us is
gonna become born again anything and so bucks a month I'll
consider it well you know if you want to go that way there's
plenty of places in Texas can tank plenty and you know just 50
bucks a month you know, it adds up Sir James of Norway in rice
that Norway to be 50 bucks and finally last to John virtue in
Newport Beach, California and David Cox and I own Washington I
didn't even know there was a town by that name up there. 50
bucks I want to thank them and everybody else who helped us on

Nothing Yeah, we're
running low on nights. We do you have an upgrade that you have
the Baronet. Second night up there. No, that's true.
Resources. No entry second half. Second half of show John second
half show second, the second half of show John second half of
show. The year. I need some echo Hola. 212. The year was 1947.
Some of you will recall that on July 8 1947, a little more than
66 years ago. numerous witnesses claim that an unidentified
flying object with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and
mule ranch just outside of Roswell, New Mexico. You recall
this, John? Oh yeah. This is a well known incident that many
say has long been covered up by the US Air Force as well as
other federal agencies and organisations. What you do not
know is that in the month of April, the year 1948, nine
months after the historic day, the following people were born
Albert Al Gore Jr. Hillary Rodham Clinton, William J.
Clinton, John F. Kerry, Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi, Dianne
Feinstein, Charles E. Schumer, Barbara Boxer Joe Biden and
Barack Obama Junior Senior.
This is the obvious lying.
Well, the obvious consequence of aliens aliens breeding with
sheep and jackasses Of course.
I walked right. Now that
almost flubbed the line to
I got a book for people to read, finished. It's another one of
these alternative histories. Essentially, this is this is
probably, I think, the definitive book about Roswell,
at least insofar as it ranks the highest and both controversial
for the government side of the equation and the flying saucers
thought people side by system. I recommend everybody read this
book is quite entertaining is called The Day After Roswell by
Colonel Philip J. Corso. And I was one I did a bunch of
research on Corso including reading a bunch of papers that
were apparently released from the freedom of information out
there by the FBI that have since been suppressed, but they're
available if you dig around long enough, and the guy is got, he's
definitely got the creds that make him a credible even though
there's and the people that criticise him and his book
seemed to be sketchy. And so I would say that if you want to
read about, you know, flying saucers alien technology, a
couple of things he says in there, and again, I'm not
completely buying into it because it's written with a
fictional sound base, the voice is fictional. Or it seems
fictional, even though it's not supposed to be. He claims among
other things that once the Roswell wreck, which was a
flying wing, was grabbed and hauled out of town and on the
back of a flatbed truck. They took a bunch of alien
technologies out of it, which B which developed into the
transistor, integrated circuits, the laser, and a number of other
things, that pulsed beam of weaponry and another number of
other things that actually make fairly get fairly close to have
making no sense in the, in the way things work with science,
because he came out of the blue with a few of these things. And
this is a very funny book to read because you it's long, so
it seems long
read this, I'll read this. I'll put it in the show notes. You
will like the book I'm sure
interesting. As matter of fact, it's the SEC Yeah, these things
have landed we've been using these technologies that we steal
from these guys that were under attack. You'll love the book as
it talks about you, me surely will like this book because you
bring up these wars in space. Defence as a Strategic Defence
initiative, Star Wars and all the rest of this that was put in
play was specifically to bring down alien saucers that if they
ever invade, it's time to invade Yeah. It's it's a it's a book
everyone should read. I'm not saying it's, but, but there's a
number of
interesting. Put it on the list. We'll put on the list.
A couple of those cite me, I'm all in. I know you're all in.
Hey, there's a couple of things that I personally know that kind
of like make you wonder about what he's claiming. And it's
hard to find this stuff out. They used to be Northrop, the
guy who invented the of American flying wing, was told to stand
down and stop all flying wing production shortly after this
crash occurred,
or incidents sermon, coincidence, wrote the foreword
for this book, read the book.
And the other thing is, Shockley, the inventor of the
one of the inventors of the transistor. George Morrow used
to be a famous computer guy until he died, and came up with
a bunch of in the 80s, mostly. And he worked at Shockley labs
and in Silicon Valley, and the people working there because
Shockley never did any did much of anything in terms of new
designs or ideas. They all wonder where he got the idea for
the transistor because the there was no evidence that he could
have done this in the first place. And so this book is and I
don't know how Corso got away with writing this book, but
apparently he was he was read in so early in the game for in
1940s in the 40s that he never had to sign all these. You know,
we'll shoot you if you say anything documents. A very good
book. Good Book.
Wow, that's quite an endorsement. And I'm
not buying it necessarily. But I have to say in terms of an
alternative explanation for a lot of things. The book is great
because it covers you'll see. You'll be impressed. Anyway, Day
After Roswell is as cheap as a buck. 19 and Val are books. But
you know, I put it on the Kindle. It's a very fast read.
Kindle Paperwhite Paperwhite
I know you do. Hey, If this ever happens to me, do not accept
this news report. Founder and CEO of American Title services
in Centennial Colorado. was found dead in his home this
week. The result of self inflicted wounds from a nail
gun. Do John if they ever find me nails to the head? He hits
the ball. Yeah, he actually had seven nails to the head. Seven
nails to the head and they're calling it suicide.
Play I love that kind of thing. Please.
When this when if you hear this? Seven or eight that could even
count self inflicted wounds from a nail gun fired into his torso
and head. Yeah, that sounds like the way to go doesn't it? I know
what I'll do. I'll shoot some nails in my torso and then in my
head. This this please do not allow that to be ruled to
suicide. And I want a full title screen on the dead segment.
Dammit.
Okay, we got a flu report.
Oh, want us to do we need to
do when you set it up with it. Like we actually have less flu
deaths than you would have in a normal cycle. But no, should we
do that? I just want to mention by the way, I'm gonna say it
again. I've said it before. I'll say it again. The swine flu
vaccine when it first came out everybody was lined up around
the blocks to get it. Do you think the entire society be
immune to this disease? I
do the jingle? Yes, please. I'm sorry.
We get a lot of mileage out of that jingle.
And this comes as statewide deaths from the flu hit 202
years. The Monterey Santa Cruz County Health Department say
plenty of flu shots to go around. But they ordered them
from manufacturers and could run out temporarily. Another free
flu shot clinic right around the corner this time at Salinas
Valley Memorial Health Care Hospital. It's happening on
Saturday, February 22. The clinic will be set up in the
parking lot from 11am until 2pm. Anyone from the Tri County area
can be vaccinated in the parking lot shot slave
parking lot you're not reminded of I did firstly when they said
I visualised a bunch of people standing around a parking lot
the shot when Labatt Emmys were first invented. And I think this
was in the 20s. It could be it could be the 30s It was probably
the 20s it became a very popular method for calming down the
hysterical when you just
lobotomy. You get to the bottom drill in the head and pull out a
little bit of grey matter. You don't
have to even do that. Apparently It used to be that they used to
do lobotomies in Central Park the same way they're doing these
shots in the parking lot. People would line up, they'd be a
doctor there and you have a lot needle.
Wait a minute, people would go to the park for this,
ya know, very popular for a short period of time.
No, no, yes. No. Yes. Wow.
The guy when the guy had this very long, very crazy kind of a
needle. And what'd he do? Because this is why it was no
big deal. They would take one year, I think your left eye and
open it up, put the needle in behind the eyeball and really
seriously, go to a spot in the brain and then Nick, like the
connective tissue between the frontal lobes and the rest of
the brain, and then you'd go home. That's was the that was
because these were very popular for a while and everyone. Then
they started noticing it wasn't working out. But for the most
but it would come down to what you could call calmed down the
wife.
I always thought that that that's how the vibrator was
invented that the that the the woman would be hysterical. In
fact, they call this hysterics and that sent her to the doctor
and he said, Oh, well, what you need is, is you need the
orgasmatron. And then the doctor had the first vibrators and they
would sense that's why you have all these movies back in the day
when though the handsome doctor and they all were in love with
the doctor because he basically had this big jackhammer and the
women Yeah, if you look up the history of the vibrator you'll
see exactly this because women were hysterical because they
basically they just needed an orgasm well now this guy could
do to for in the park a bed open your eye and your legs
it's a lot of weird stuff that goes on and you know what made
your to keep people from getting involved thank
you and 80 years from now, people might be saying can you
believe those idiots who went into the park and got shot up
with some kind of goop
so beer Bill Maher is a douchebag
okay in fact Hold on a second do we have I think we yes we do we
have it right here
on the best podcast in the universe all right. I'm ready.
Alright, so
Bill Maher goes on a on a rant against again, it's a just rant.
And by the way, and they had S E Cupp.
She was the she's the token right winger on MSNBC
she thought this was hilarious. Everything you're about to hear
and listen to the laugh was more she was just thinking Maher is
so funny. Let's make fun of old people and bitch about the fact
that they get Social Security, which to me is peculiar. Because
as a as a liberal that, that that yeah, they would. They're
all for Social Security, it seems to me but not when it
comes to old people because they should all just starve to death
in the streets apparently. So let's just play a series of
clips. giving you some insight into this guy's something's
wrong with him the first one.
And finally, new rule in the battle for government giveaways.
We have to stop thinking in terms of rich versus poor black
versus white. And admit it's really a war between the young
and the old. And the older winning. When it comes to
meeting the needs of our seniors money is no object. You know, in
America, we talk a lot about entitlements and who are the
takers and who are the makers. And here's the bottom line from
the current issue of Harper's federal yearly spending per
child 3008 22 Federal yearly spending per senior 25 grand for
55. Seniors keep asking what kind of world are we leaving for
our grandkids? Well, one we're Headstart nutrition assistance
and child welfare are being cut. These days when grandpa finds a
quarter behind your ear he keeps it
now of course the granddad their old lady we're talking about
here has to pay for utilities and rent and, and housing and
food grocery ID. How are you comparing it to some child as
being raised by my parents? Are you trying saying that the kid
should get $25,000 and agenda oldsters should just get nothing
and let them move in with the kid and they've ended and the
sons and daughters. I mean, what kind of what is he? What is he
trying to say here?
Never. It's also just comedy John, I mean, you know, it's
just it's
nice. It's very serious for comedy played part two.
That was part two you mean part three? Yeah, part three,
but let's not kid ourselves where our tax dollar goes. It
goes to Grandma because she votes and young people don't.
So this is his like, his conclusion is all about the
vote. And that's the reason they should get nothing. He goes on
and on. He makes jokes about the penal pump Viagra all the sex
that's going on in the in the house. Apparently there's
another thing you run into with liberals. The idea that anyone
over 60 has sex.
Oh, it's just weird. Weird. Oh, that's like why would you have
sex like my parents having sex? Weird, weird.
Very juvenile, my
grandparents. Would they were well into their 80s I knew there
were some Hank I was I there were some Hanky Panky still
going on with them. And I thought that was beautiful
for them. And anyway, this finishes with Mar part four. But
here's
what I don't understand why if seniors are having all this
government subsidised fun. Why are they the angriest people
politically, and they are 76% of seniors say they're, quote,
dissatisfied with the way things are going in the country today.
Why you're getting all the money and half the policy.
That was funny
that brought S E Cupp to hysterics. She just thought this
whole thing funny had a joke about Astroglide as long as you
don't mix it up with the poly dense materials right there but
it's hateful. And it actually was killed Junior's watching
this and he says you know what's interesting to him? And he's a
Keynesian philosopher. Basically, he says that
generally speaking, the comedians of the world are the
are stem from the court jester. The court jester is a guy who,
who, with within reason ridicules the king ridicules
that the cardinal ridicules the to entertain them to entertain
the elites. Yes, but it's the but but the target is the
powerful it's always the powerful. You don't start
targeting the people. You don't start targeting the L the
elderly, you don't start targeting people that are
usually helpless. White, what kind of a comic would and Bill
Maher does this constantly targets the people, because
they're their idiot Republicans are because they're old and in
the way, and he never targets the powerful. He's a pathetic
example of what comedy has become with these liberals. John
Cena borax and diva of the day.
Right on. Well, that's why I don't watch him. Well, that's
hard
to watch. It was on these rants. I mean, I always catch I tried
to catch the new rules. He's got a couple of jokes in there. But
this and then the watch S E Cupp all in?
Oh, why would you? Come on, man? Why would you do that when you
have the President's podcast? I mean, seriously, you want some
entertaining? You want some quality programming, my friend?
You go to the President's podcast? Yeah, hit me. And
there's a couple of memes in here that we just need to be
aware of.
I want to work with Congress on this agenda wherever I can. But
in this year of action, whenever I can take steps without
legislation to expand opportunity for more American
families. I will. I've got a pen, and I've got a phone.
All right. There you go. That's our president. Putin. Putin is
shooting bears the pen with his East riding horse back with his
bear back with his shirt off. Our president has a pen and a
phone. Very, very sad
about the masculinization. I have two clips that are about
Syria that actually a couple of Syrian clips, but I had to the
two that I want to play back to back. One of them is Susan
powers.
Ah, this is our new ambassador to the United Nations. She did a
little they have a name for that thing. They call it a stakeout.
I think when that when she goes to the microphone at the United
Nations. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, it's called this. I think
that's let me just check. If you go to video.state.gov. That's
where I was. I think I saw this. It's seeing me see. Yes.
Security Council stakeout.
stakeout? Well, I'm listening to her. And then there's this
United Nations spokes guy who comes on some time after her and
he's the number one guy under banky moon. And I don't know
what I can do this a lot of different ways. But I think it's
just good to play him back to back because powers has the
masculine voice, and then you can hear what the guy sounds
like.
I know regime statements this morning describing a willingness
to evacuate innocence. Given that the regime up to this point
has described just about anybody living in opposition territory
as a terrorist, and has attacked them as such. You know, we have
reason on the basis of history to be very sceptical and frankly
very concerned about anybody who falls into regime hands. Holmes
has been a city on the front.
Is that the one you want it or not? The one that said there is
UMN basketball sorry,
I'm sorry. I thought I had the wrong one. Hold on. I got it. I
got it. I got then I let the
guy know you heard the male voice now you're gonna hear the
guy.
Do United Nations and humanitarian partners and
preposition food, medical and other basic supplies on the
outskirts of homes ready for immediate delivery. As soon as
the green light was given by the parties for safe passage, aid
staff are also on standby.
And then we have Jay Johnson, who was our brand new Secretary
of Department of Homeland Security, who was interviewed by
Jane Harman
we know individuals from the US Canada and Europe, are
travelling to Syria to fight in the conflict. At the same time,
extremist are actively trying to recruit Westerners indoctrinate
them and see them return to their home countries with an
extremist mission. That's pretty alarming stuff. When you think
about the 1000s of folks that have gone to Syria, either to
fight the Bashar Al Assad regime or to be trained
folks. No question about it. And and some of those folks, by the
way, Syria is pretty close to Russia might try to go
Syria is pretty close to Russia. Should we look at the map for a
moment? Jane Harman. She really means geographically. John, this
woman is such a more she was a in Congress.
It's serious, pretty close to Russia might try to go up
through the caucuses and attack it so to
the caucuses is like this like 10,000 miles the other
direction. How she cut out Am I crazy? Am I Am I missing
something? Am I wrong?
No. You're not wrong at all. Series? Not at all.
She's an idiot. So serious. That is the
distance I'll give you in a second.
Okay. And then, but here's the quote, here's the money quote,
too. So Syria is that is the Afghanistan of of 2014. Train
around us tariffs? Well, we're trying our intelligence services
are pretty good, pretty good. We're trying to find out who
these folks are, where they're going. And if we're good at
tracking where they are. We will we will find them before they
return and cause us harm.
Kill him kill him with a drone. How far is Syria from 1500
miles? Now that's not that. It's not it's not that I thought it
was further than
that. is still a three hour flight.
Yeah, these guys are on camels.
Yeah, it would take about a couple months.
But Syria is the new Afghanistan. This is very
important. Because what she's saying is I guess he's trying to
tell us that terrorists come from Afghanistan, even though we
know the terrorists were in Pakistan. And oh, I know,
Germany. That's where the terror cell was, and oh, yeah, they
were Saudi Arabians. Okay. Turn off your television people. Or
turn it on. When the President has a visitor, we had a visitor
from a very highly ranked visitor at the White House.
Sweet Mickey Martelly. of Haiti. And you'd never get here. The
car on the poop experiment with a pontoon on the poop Express?
Of course, to review, there are still approximately 150,000
people homeless.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, that can't be because the
Clinton Bush guys they took in billions and billions of dollars
and then people were going in for honest and blankets or
water. Just send your cash. Now there's
still 150,000 people,
these people should all be living in first class
accommodations by now. 150,000
people living in squalor in tents were rape and sickness of
course, the United Nations from the blue helmets came in and
gave everybody cholera, cholera and was pooping that people are
dying.
Yeah, the United Nations refuses to pay a nickel 1000s of people
die retro. What is it? Restitution
and just horrible horrible. Of course, we have the the Bill
Clinton suite at the new hotel. We have all that all gone. And
we know that some of the we've got the gold and mineral rights
up there in the hills, but 150,000 people by the UN's own
admission, and billions of dollars missing. Just missing.
No one knows where it is. And I haven't forgotten the big George
Clooney. Oh, yeah. They're 20 of the benefit and Bon Jovi before
everyone's oh my gosh, ah, so horrible. How quickly we forget.
But our president will just play along now
at the four year anniversary of that tragic event that
devastated such a large portion of hate hate not only Haiti but
also devastated the Haitian economy. The good news is good
news because of not just the mobilisation of international
support, which the US helped to lead, but also because of strong
leadership from the Haitian people themselves. And
you'll recall that, you know, there was like, there were
riots. There was all this fake elections. The guy they wanted.
The was the other musician. You got a big head and they kicked
him out and said, Get the fuck, I'll be flying on private jets,
you moron. He was like all the scandal. We will remember this
stuff. We track it. We're not falling for this. You liar.
Liar. President
Martelly. We've gotten to see progress. Progress economy is
growing. Well, security is improving
security is improving job economy is growing. How about
the 150,000 people in the tents?
Infrastructures getting rebuilt? Oh, we're rebuilding the Rubble.
Rubble has been removed. I'm sorry. We're recovering from the
rubble. health facilities are beginning to open up the
schools, our
health facilities are does this Is he is he must be Hi. How can
you sit there and lie like this? And where's the media? This
excuse me
starting to get back into place and businesses are starting to
return to Haiti. It's been a very slow and difficult process.
And I think we are all recognising that we have a lot
more work to do. But my main message today to the President
and of the people of Haiti is that the American people are
committed to standing with you in this process. We want to make
sure that all the children of Haiti and look forward to
do pooping in your tent, the children of Haiti, wives
opportunity opportunity. Oh, I'm sorry, making what baseball's
prosperity and security,
security, prosperity and security. This is the one that
really makes me angry.
I'm very encouraged by the fact that Haiti has now made progress
on an election law that could ensure elections this year. And
yeah, we can bring the same shills in again,
help to resolve some of the political roadblocks that have
political roadblocks. Oh, you mean the corruption and the
ballot box stuffing and the lying and the cheating
stalled some progress in the country. And I appreciate the
President's efforts on that front. I'm looking forward to
hearing where we can help in other reforms that I know he
cares about such areas as human rights, prison reform, prison
reform, dealing with reform.
It's laughable. It's just laughable
that are inhibitors to progress in any country, including ours.
And
now he's just making it up, we will continue
to stand by Asian democracy, Asian leadership and the Haitian
people in giving their money and steady progress that needs to
take place. So, Mr. President, welcome. We're very proud of our
relationship with Haiti, and we look forward to deepening it.
Now, if you're if you're this guy, what would you do? If you
just got this from the President of the United States? who
clearly is all in on keeping you in there so that you can run
drugs for the country and have cheap labour?
What would you do? I'd say, Mr. President, where's the billions
of dollars collected by the Bush Clinton Foundation, the billions
of dollars collected by the marathon event that they had on
all TV stations around the globe? That's what I asked, ya
know,
Mr. President, I'd like to first thank the people of the United
States. You're welcome. You're more than welcome. You're
welcome. Thank you, Mr. President, for always standing
by the Haitian people.
Standing by Wait, wait, wait for it.
also like to acknowledge the presence of the First Lady. Oh,
yes.
compliment the president's wife. That's what you gotta do
that Obama in Haiti after the earthquake. I'd like to thank
her for support. Also. Through this meeting, Mr. President, I
hope we have a chance to discuss matters pertaining to Security
Security in Haiti, security in the region. Our ability to fight
together Narco traffic back there
it is. To fight Narco traffic. Uh huh. Sure. You disgust me
No, it's a pet peeve of yours.
Yeah, but not enough to play the jingle. But yes, it is a big pet
peeve. Interesting train route being set up.
Oh, another one. A new one. Yeah, this is a
new one. So we have the Strait of Hormuz, which is very
important. Of course that's Iran control that I think they do.
Right? I believe so. Ma'am. And it's very important to be able
to get primarily of course, oil and and freight through this
such channels 21 If you should really pull up a map to see the
Strait of Hormuz. Are you doing it? Yeah. Right now. In fact,
I'll do it with you. It's kind of cool. This strait of Hormuz
typically has a nice map. Alright, here's the map. So we
got the straight day you got to Iran on the right hand side. And
on the left hand side, you got Oman. Now, I need to zoom out
to the street itself is really bordered on the north by Iran
and Oman is at the bottom. Or you're looking at it at an
angle.
Yeah, it depends on how your globe is turned. Oh, yeah. If
you're looking at it,
right, flip, it does kind of depend on how you look at okay.
Right. So what they're doing now on just have to zoom out for
some reason, Google doesn't want to zoom out very well on me.
What they're doing is instead of going through the if you look on
the left Oman instead of just going through the straits. They
are building a $3 billion railroad through a man whose
they Oman, Oman, Oman, on the left. Oman are the Oman National
Railway Company are going to take over the straits business.
And they're going to build this railway from south to north,
right parallel to the straight all the way up into the
mountains to Muscat. And they plan to have this thing done in
a year and a half. And this is all part of that GCC, you know
that the Chinese are a part of and you know, the Russians want
to be a part of everyone's you know, building the big railway
is everywhere. So they're just trying to bypass all of these
all of these waterways.
So, you know, okay, I'm looking at, let's say, we said that
there's going to be a railway that runs from Oman through
dukedom, UAE, up through, like, through Balboa, wait,
all the way up. Yep. All the way up. So instead of going through
the Strait, and then going to any of those ports, there'll be
and this mountains here was gonna start at Muscat. I think
so. Yeah. Muscat. Yeah. So you, you dock there. You pour all
your stuff out, put it on the train goes all the way through
the mountains in the friendly territory, you see.
Right through Saudi Arabia.
Yeah, so that's a $3 billion deal, just
because everyone's freaked out about the straightness, of
course, was being a choke point, of course.
And along those lines, I learned that the this was a pretty
interesting delays to the Panama Canal, which we've been we've
been looking at so that we have the Chinese
one of the few news outlets that looks at that.
Yeah. Why would anyone look so boring? To the Chinese are
building their own canal in through Nicaragua. I'm not quite
sure what the status is. But trust me, the Chinese know what
they're doing. So the expansion of the Panama Canal is I'll read
you the headline here, delays to the five point $25 billion
expansion of the Panama Canal will extend a surge in rates for
vessels hauling liquefied petroleum gas to Asia from the
US. Uh huh. Now we kind of know why this is in play. It's going
to cost us a lot more money to ship the same amount of
liquefied gas that we want it to that we want to ship. If we
don't have this Canal Expansion, as long as the Panama Canal
remains unfit for taking vlg seas, the very large gas
carriers, it's going to have a positive impact on the freight
market. Assuming X exports continue as normal volumes will
continue to be shipped rates for vlg. seas will rise to $45,000 a
day up from $30,000. So this is bait lot. These are big reasons.
Yeah. These are the percent Exactly. These are big, big, big
forces at play here.
Well, I mean, the Keystone pipeline, of course, which is
going to be part of this scheme, I believe, yeah. runs through
the country. And as goes down to those refiners that are in the
Gulf Coast, which it has to go Got to get out of there to
China. They got to go to the Panama Canal. Yeah, got to. Now
the West Coast refiners, not too many of them deal with this
particular product.
Yeah, but the Japan really needs our gas badly. Because they shut
down all of the nuclear.
Huh? Yeah. So they're gonna gouge us. That's interesting.
Yeah,
of course, you know. That's the banking dispute. So it's kind of
hard to tell who exactly is
behind. And who's, where's the money going? It's
hard to tell. But we got to be careful, because you know, if
they delay that long enough, the Chinese are gonna go Hallo,
Nicaragua, I'm gonna open that up.
Yeah, they're probably just because everything in China's
best price. It will give us a better deal for sure. And
they're competing with us. So give us a better deal.
And I would be remiss if I did not mention that apparently, the
Federal Reserve has issued a warning for bank drills and
systems stress testing on the 15th and 16th of February.
Interesting. Now, of course, this
is what we we have a false flag warning for this type of
activity. Always have to be looking out for something weird
going down. This memo came
area within the six week cycles actually, march 15. So we have
to kind of note that I would just say don't think, well, this
much.
So this, this is the last thing that I really have that I wanted
to share today. I'm pretty sure let me see. Where is it here?
Oh, yeah. I'm sure when it happened when when it first was
reported, which was months ago, there was this attack on the
Silicon Valley, or the northern northern Northern California
power station. Oh, yeah.
I keep forgetting to bring that up, too. What do you think of
that? Oh, so explain what it is first. Okay.
So apparently six months ago, and it was caught on camera.
Some bad actors went in with I think automatic rifles, assault
rifles, and they shot out 17 or 18 transformers at this one
power station. Now here's the weird thing. The reporting
concludes that the shell casings had no fingerprints that there
were rock formations consistent with you know, a very well
organised operation. And there is some video it's very tough to
see what's really going on in the video. But they did succeed
in in effectively blowing up the trans the that power state
substation, and of course, power was a diverted. And it all
worked out. And what's what's weird is that it's only coming
out now. And it's only been really discussed now. Although
I've we've seen this report for weeks, if not months, but
certainly not six months. I don't think
no, no, this is only within the last couple of weeks, actually.
So I got this report, an interview with a guy named
Jenkins, who's from the RAND Corporation. And he was on Al
Jazeera America. And I he said a couple of things that were very
interesting. I cut it down because it was very long
interview because Al Jazeera has no commercials. So they can just
talk forever. I liked what he was saying. And you know, RAND
Corporation, these guys, you don't really often see RAND
Corporation, guys on news channels. Very rarely. So I
figured that was interesting by itself.
Though, of course, I've been no arrests. We don't know what
motive might have been behind this attack. But a former vice
president of Pacific asset electric said recently that this
wasn't an incident where Billy Bob and Joe decided after a few
brewskis to come in and shoot up a substation.
I'm very disappointed that that's not what was going on,
because that's my idea of a Saturday night. Damn.
He said that this was a very well thought out attack and that
they targeted specific components. What does that tell
you?
Well, that suggests that they had had either done their
homework or potentially they had inside knowledge of how the
system works. You know, we look at these we look at these
facilities, there's an array of transformers and power lines. To
the ordinary outsider. It's mystifying one wouldn't know
which one to fire to fire arounds that which ones to go
after the fact that in this case, it's reported that they
were targeting specific components does suggest a degree
of more sophisticated knowledge.
Alright, and John welling off. The former Chairman of the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, has said that he
believes it was an act of domestic terrorism, and that it
was likely a dress rehearsal for a bigger terror plot that could
take Break down the US power grid and blackout much of the
country. Again,
what this is now on. He's got my attention. All right, okay. And
now the RAND guy comes out of the blue with something that I
had completely forgotten. You may still remember. But do you
think I can say that? I mean, we certainly have seen in our own
history in the United States, attacks by terrorists on the
power grid, in fact, than in years past. There were attacks
on the same power grid that was attacked last last April. John,
can you recall? Last April? No, no. He says when the power?
I don't know. No, I'm sure if I'm more reminded, I could. So
this is very interesting. What he's saying is on the exact same
power grid, similar attacks. But many, many years ago, 1970s, a
group calling itself the New World Liberation Front. Do you
remember the New World Liberation Front? vaguely, they
are the people that targeted Nancy Pelosi. The reason why she
always said she had a gun. Ah, interesting. He carried out a
bombing campaign directed against the electrical power
grid, and caused some fairly serious blackouts in Sausalito
and San Jose. So it's certain were you there at that time, or
were you not in the in the valley area in the 70s?
I should have been
not unprecedented. But to carry out a major attack that would
bring down the system nationwide, that would require
hitting a number of specific points simultaneously, to
preclude the possibility that the authorities could could
reroute power. Well, I think he's setting us up there. That's
how to do it.
Well, here's the with the way I'm looking at this is that
again, this would be ideal for the March 15. six week event.
They bring this up now. Why? Yeah, exactly. To get it, you
could have just let it let sleeping dogs lie. What's the
point of now bringing it up? Unless there's it's a prelude to
something that the government's doing? Well, he has
one more Zinger in here and his last 30 seconds US officials
warn about a tax on electric power facilities and on the
grid, the first thing that most often comes to mind is somehow
sophisticated computer hackers, somehow getting malware and
shutting us down is that you think the bigger threat
now listen to what he says. I don't know that it's the bigger
one. No, certainly we've seen more activity in the cyber area
as opposed to the area of physical sabotage. And that's
simply because we are now so dependent on these information
systems. Because there are so many people with this technical
know how which has become increasingly available. And we
also see a lot of activity because it's it's a it's
criminally driven that is there's there are commercial
opportunities here. Yes. He doesn't just say it was like oh,
it's criminally driven by the the computer industry who are
criminals, and one business opportunities to sell
governments with a bunch of hooey.
Yeah, it was something we should get in on. Well, I'm thinking,
for one thing, that question was weird, it was planted because if
somebody's going out of their way to shoot up a place, and
then they're targeting certain components, that's got nothing
to do with cyber,
no at all. No connection. He
even said it. He said, Well, I'm not so convinced. I'm pretty
sure of course. Yeah. And that would actually be really good
because the defence contractors and you know, everyone's all in
on cyber perfect to have an old school attacks and we all
people, we need more military crap there. We need Guard
personnel and tanks and
well, they got to do some with this. Kids from Afghanistan,
when they bring them back. They put them around these places.
Yeah, I'm free. I'm not fine. I got a clip that will make your
roll your eyes.
Now this has got to be the last one, I'm cutting you off.
This is just too funny. So this is
don't make a thumb Hartmann.
I'm gonna make it thumb hard. It's the RAD cast. This we'll be
able to set it up. This is what he's added this not to his RT
report, but to his regular daily radio show. He has added this
ludicrous segment of his show, and just tell me what you think
when you're done hearing it.
According to Red cast.org We're seeing the higher levels of
radiation leaving the states for the most part, but we should be
seeing the rise of Fallout once again and a few more days, like
would come Colorado is reporting 66 counts per minute with spikes
to 90 in Charleston, West Virginia is averaging 43 with
565 counts per minute. Colorado Springs, Colorado is city and 65
counts per minute with spikes of 94 and Oxford, Michigan is
hovering at 29 with highs of 71 counts per minute. Frederick,
Wisconsin is reporting 46 counts per minute with spikes to 80 and
spiritual Spearfish South Dakota is sitting at 50 with highs of
83 counts per minute. Salisbury Massachusetts is hovering at 81
counts per minute with spikes all the way up to 122 and
Ithaca, New York is averaging 41 with highs of 65 counts per
minute. Red cast.org alert level is 100 counts per minute
however, they remind us that there is no such thing as a safe
level of radiation.
Okay, I got it very smart of you. And I caught it. First of
all the red cast. So these are the radiation levels of
Fukushima I'm sure we're all dying from Fukushima. And he
bowls brings out spear fish. Yeah. Which is landlocked. Thank
you. Thank you. I was listening.
One of our donors is from spear fish.
He must be dying from the red count.
Now the funny thing is when they hit Massachusetts they had the
numbers all go up which makes no sense because the distance from
one place to another Hold on one
second stop. Just stop this was so ridiculous.
Yeah, no, I agree
that I'm gonna give this to you.
I'm giving it to you late but not forgotten or whatever. That
is so ridiculous. He is reading. Like it's like it's the weather
like if you had like the fishery report,
or the right the sunset sunrise.
What a dick.
It's an idiot now but the thing I want to point out is that even
with this bullcrap wishes can't last it would seem logical that
if there's radiation coming from Fukushima was there's not it
would be higher on the west coast and the east coast but the
on the East Coast numbers are really high never explained to
course that especially Massachusetts is just laden with
radioactive radon. In Massachusetts, you usually get a
radon detector. I had
put a jersey we had a New Jersey, we had to have a radon
detector. Yeah,
because the the earth on the East Coast ground is oozing
radon.
You cannot buy a house without a radon survey.
Right. And then many times you have to put like this, like
either covering yet do different things that keep because the
Radon is the gas and it comes into the house and everyone's
breathing it. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's horrible.
But as you grow and you grow an extra is really crazy. Oh.
Anyway, I just thought that was the stupidest thing I've ever
heard was that they Okay. Seriously
now that's good. Um, thank you very much. That was very
depressing. Oh, boy. Okay, yeah, we didn't get to any Turkey
stuff or Central African Republic. Were bad.
Yeah, well, I'm going to talk a little bit about them and the
newsletter and my thinking now is the poppies are going to be
moved there.
Ooh, I like that.
They got a because we're leaving Afghanistan. We got to put the
poppy someplace else. Well, for
sure. And I have a report for a Thursday, for sure. We are
ramping up big time. And Djibouti, of course, is the main
base. That's that's it's I saw a video of Djibouti they got
subway. Like I Burger King. It's just like Bhadra it's
unbelievable. The Djibouti base is proof that we're launching
everything from Djibouti. And since Yeah, and so it makes
sense. We need to start to well, let's we should take out the the
earth the climate, the poppy growing climate there and I did
I've got all the math. Oh, good. Okay, fantastic. That will be
coming your way Thursday. Remember to support us
devorah.org/na here and FEMA Region six in Austin, Texas in
the morning everybody. My name is Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where it's raining. I'm John C.
Dvorak and we'll be back on Thursday
right here on your no agenda
and you can always follow me on twitter.org/n A
