Whatever the police tell you to do a news organisation do it.
Adam curry, John C. Dvorak.
Tuesday, April 17 2014 times you're getting my nation media
assassination Episode Six, zero.
This is no agenda. Breaking news. Nothing
has happened. We do not know what happened next. Now a
picture of a small submarine sitting on a pier. Here in FEMA
Region six and Travis heights head out in the morning,
everybody. I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Pacific Northwest. By the way, have you
all paid your taxes you should have I'm John C. Dvorak. Greg
Vaughn, Buzzkill.
I did that unhappy business.
So here's the deal. I'm here at the Pacific Northwest hanging
out. Yes. And I and Mimi is not anywhere to be seen now where
she is can
I ask her a question before you get to dinner? The dinner? Yeah.
I mean that dinner? Yeah, I
have a dinner up. Oh, no.
Wait, okay. So Mimi is not around.
But it's around. She's around. She's on the acreage or
something.
She's on the property. Is she on the property? A lot? A lot.
Obviously. I've always wanted to ask you so does this mean me
maintain a presence for you up there like a toothbrush?
I have everything here. Yeah, I don't have to really pack it all
up. Then I need to bring this full. Yeah. Thank goodness
otherwise I'd have nothing to throw in. This is no dinger.
You have you have clothes up there and and is you Did you
check
my house? I would have clothes up here.
You're not there very often. It
depends on the time of year. I'm not going to be up here when we
have 80 degree temperatures in California and it's it is
storming up there no
right now and the toothbrushes are all dusty. Do you have like
I have I have an electric toothbrush that I bring back and
forth.
So you don't have a toothbrush? Do you carry one?
I buy electric toothbrush. I'm not going to have a bunch of
these are expensive. You got it for free for my wife. This is
the specific toothbrush that was given to me,
you know from our night. Night. Yeah, and I have a two it's the
the Sonic.
Yeah, thanks. It's not the normal one you can get I don't
know where you can even buy that one. Specialist one. Oh, really?
Yeah, go because I bought a couple of these. This is
nothing. This is a little more high end.
I know that whenever I get my teeth cleaned. My health care
professional says Hmm. Sonic brush.
Oh, really? Yeah, he's a certain pattern. I guess. I know. She
said I can always tell when someone uses because they have
subsonic the what the dentist says is that's like that's the
same idea. Only hardcore.
But what if it's subsonic that would mean is less good. Done by
that high speed that squealing thing they use? Yeah. I can't
use that anymore.
It goes goes all the way into your brain. It goes into your
brain right? Well, holy moly.
Okay, I'm waiting for it. You can start the show.
You want me to get it rolling? Well,
I don't know where you got. Well,
the the tit for tat in the in our war of war of the minds in
Cold War version. Two 2.0. Our man has made a sneak attack. The
Putin did a did a podcast yesterday there on his What do
you call it on his little state media show there are T No, no,
no. It Well, it was the one in Russia. He was simulcast on RT
with translation. And
that, you know, this was interesting because JC Bosco Jr.
was pointing this out during the Olympics. You know, we had such
disdain for the Russians, that there was never been an Olympics
like this where somebody was speaking in their native tongue.
And there was no translation. Right? They just let the Russian
go on to do what they said. And they didn't have the courtesy to
have to translate it. I thought that was kind of rude. Well, RT
translated on the fly. I was very cool. The President Putin
had his his President is the President or what is he? He's
president,
vice president Prime Ministers was assigned. Yeah. So he's,
you sit at this big desk in the middle. And it's a call in show
and people are calling in and asking questions. I'm Ted he's
taking calls and cutting anyone off? Well, no, but but Snowden
calls in what Yeah, with a video message they missed. Oh, yeah.
It just came through on the wire this show alright. Alright, so
but I made a little compilation for you. And it's very
interesting because this was not a live calling. This was a pre
taped although they made it come across as if it was a very
amazing moment. Video Message from Edward Snowden. So, you
know, unlike our American press conferences, this one was
completely set up. And such a thing. Yeah. But so I cut it
down to about two minutes and I cut out all this training is
bullcrap you don't need to hear. Here's how it went down the
translation on RT, which I thought was just a phenomenal
piece of Ministry of Truth operations. We've
really sensational, really outrageous, I would say, a
message from the person who received who actually
revolutionised the world by revealing the by leaking the
information.
This is licking it by licking the information. I love that
this is the equivalent of one of those Chickies I'm like the
voice Christina milyon. Like, well, we got this really read
justice Oh, Carson, I can't believe was righteous video
message from the guy who was licking me information. And here
he comes.
I'd like to ask a question about American secret services, Edward
Snowden.
Now the video that you see is the same kind of video that
we've been seeing from him consistently. Like a head and
shoulders. Yeah, webcam. Yeah, not much better than webcam,
black background, bad chroma key for some reason. I don't know
why they just added King him at all. I don't know. But it was
black background. But it was pre recorded. And here's a little
bit of his message. I've seen
little public discussion of Russia's own involvement in the
policies of mass surveillance. So I'd like to ask you, does
Russia intercept store or analyse in any way the
communications of millions of individuals? And do you believe
that simply increasing the effectiveness of intelligence or
law enforcement investigations can justify placing
societies rather than subjects on their subjects?
This question is, I mean, I'm so the
right way the right answer would be Yeah, we would if we could.
Well,
that's interestingly, that's very much what the answer was.
But first, I want to stay with this question. Of now you've
asserted from day one that you know that the Obama
administration is P owed about them having Snowden? Oh, yeah.
But that of course, there's that's the only thing the Obama
administration is mad about. The Neo cons who are grabbing, you
know, Ukraine and Syria, and we'll talk about that in a
minute. They're onto a whole different game. So where this
fits in the theatre, it's it's a little mind boggling. The
question is clearly, you know, setup, what is Snowden and now
he works for the he works for Putin. Now, what is this? He was
actually
supposed to be working for some web company there.
Well, here's here comes the answer. Thank you.
Okay, so Mr. Bhushan? I guess you understand the question
overall. We have seen you talk to world leaders and Mr. Snowden
as well. I will try to translate.
The American version of English is a little different from the
kind of English
Yes, this is this is American slang this below level slang.
I'm not used to that.
Mr. Snowden at Gmail, if you are a former agent at spy, I used to
be working for an intelligence service. We're going to talk one
professional language. First of all, I
love this. Hey, as a spy, do a spy Ed. Let me let me let me
tell you what's going down and listen to his answer is it's
really quite revealing, at least in what he's trying to
communicate that
our intelligence efforts are strictly regulated by our law,
so how special forces can use this kind of special equipment
as they intercept phone calls or Paypal or someone online and you
have to get a court permission to particular
I love that translation. If you want to stalk someone. I guess
that's what they really said in Russia. Yes, if you want to
stalk someone, you need a court order person.
We're not. We don't have a mass system of such interception and
according to our law was our law. So it cannot exist. Of
course we do. Some efforts like that, but we do not have a mass
scale. The uncontrollable they get used to serious efforts like
that. I hope we won't do that and we don't have as much money
as they have in the States, and we don't have these technical
devices or they
don't have the money, and we don't have the gear. This is
great. What do you think the point is of this? Why would he
be doing this other than just a needle, needle? Obama just poke
a needle in his eye?
I think it's just that yeah, this is a little back. This is a
little thing going on in the background. We already know
that, you know, most of this that's, that's going on between
Russia, the United States. And let me play this clip, which is
just a short clip. And it's, I think kind of summarises things,
which is the corporation clip. Corporations still work with
Russia.
US led sanctions against Moscow on stopping Western companies
from pairing up with Russia and wants to drill for fossil fuels
in the Arctic, the polar seabed is said to hold about a quarter
of the world's untapped oil and gas reserves. But while it's
business as usual, for corporations, some Western
governments are stoking military tensions on Russia's northern
borders report NIHR explains a bit more. Yeah,
we know that Siemens was visiting Putin, the CEO of
Siemens, and you know, today Hey, don't worry, man, we're
gonna continue our deal with you.
So there's the this is theatre. And so I don't know that this
probably was meant because you first get snowed in on is enough
to needle. You know what Snowden doing?
But seriously, doesn't this kind of play into the theory? That
everyone's all in the same boat that it's almost like Obama and
Putin had a phone call, which they did? They talk about once
every two weeks? Hey, I got a good one. Dude, dude, get snowed
on and have masked something and you say I if we don't have the
money or all those cool things you guys have? I mean, why not?
It's I don't understand. here's the here's America's answer to
this. This is Jen Psaki doing her little her little spiel
there. This this disease is the standard spokes hole for the
State Department. Although not the cutest. We'd like Marie Harf
better.
You know, they look so much the same.
Now. No, no, no, no, no Marie's. And she's been wearing like cute
little pink tops and stuff.
Now okay. Well, I think it's I think go either way. They
probably do that with each other.
Here's the This is fun.
He also said that there's absolutely
no Russian intelligence Force personnel, no forces inside of
the Ukraine, and so on. So do you believe that the Russians
Foreign Minister, exactly why.
So you'd I would point you to the fact fiction document we put
out yesterday that outlines a number of the claims and what
the facts are on the ground. What, basically fiction, I would
point you to
that. Oh, well, so fiction. Yes, I went to the fact fiction
document that they put out that I think we should review some
points of this fact fiction. Yes, the document is titled
Russian fiction the sequel 10 more false claims about Ukraine.
This is a State Department document. Like a word like this
is news for children now. And at the top of this document, it
says no amount of propaganda can make right something that the
world knows is wrong. A quote from President Barack Obama on
March 26. Russia continues to spin a false and dangerous
narrative to justify its illegal actions in Ukraine. The Russian
propaganda machine continues to promote hate speech, and incite
violence. By creating a false threat in Ukraine that does not
exist. We would not be seeing the violence and sad events that
we've witnessed this weekend. Without the relentless stream of
disinformation and Russian provocateurs fostering unrest in
eastern Ukraine. Here are 10 more false claims Russia is
using to justify intervention in Ukraine with the fact that these
assertions ignore or distort My goodness, John. These are this
is fighting words right here.
Yeah, this is pretty funny this document, and I'd like to the
second or third one they've done. Yeah.
And I'd like to remind everybody, before this all
happened, the leaked phone call from Victoria Nudelman.
Just wanna remind everybody how it really went down with this
was, this is a eu USA pitch. But okay, now we need to put out
Fact number one, Russia claimed Russia claims Russian agents are
not active in Ukraine cracked. Ukrainian government has
arrested more than a dozen suspected Russian intelligence
agents. I love this. So yes, the government of Ukraine had
information that Russian Gru officers were providing
individuals in Kharkiv and done next, with advice and
instructions. So they're providing advice unlike our
consultants.
Oh, you mean unlike Saki, or is it yeah was no is newlon in the
Ukraine handing out doughnuts and then doing deals on the
side? Forget forgetting isn't that the same forget
Newland, how about Brennan? This the chief of the Central
Intelligence Agency? Who was they caught him in Keefe. And
the Russians, of course said hey, your guy, your your secret
service guy is in Kyiv. And this is not okay. What are you doing?
What are you? You're trying to reinforce some stuff. You're
blaming us for everything and, and carry on I carry a carne, a
spokesman for the White House. Beautiful setup. He points to
the AP AP ask the questions. And he then rattles off the written
statement. It's been some reports in Russian media that
John Brennan was in Ukraine over the weekend. Can you confirm
that he was there? I love it. Just yeah. And we know the
questions are provided with the answers upfront. So Associated
Press, who was called on first in this press conference was
given this question. Well, we
don't normally comment on the CIA directors travel.
But, you know, maybe for this time, we'll give you a statement
since he was caught.
But given the extraordinary circumstances in this case, and
the false claims being levelled by the Russians at the CIA, we
can confirm that the director was in Kyiv.
What false claims to me they don't kill people with drones
and they don't know assassinate world leaders. Is that the false
claim?
Astonishing when Carney did this
this weekend as part of a trip to Europe, senior level visits
of intelligence officials are a standard means of fostering
mutually beneficial security cooperation, including US
intelligence.
I love I love how he reads this from his book
collaboration. Going back to the beginnings of the post cold war
era, US and Russian intelligence officials have met over the
years to imply that US officials meeting with their counterparts
is anything other than in the same spirit is absurd.
Absurd. Yeah. Mark. Yes, Mark. It's just absurd. On April 12,
armed pro Russian militants seized government buildings not
saying Russian military just pro Russian militants. Many were
outfitted in bulletproof vests camouflage uniforms with
insignia removed and carrying Russian designed weapons. Like
ak 74, as it says, which I think is a great very cool that they
put that in their document. It would be 40 sevens, you
numbskulls. But the document literally has 70 fours Yeah, no,
I'm looking at it. Yeah.
Let's see. What else do we have Russia claims pro Russia
demonstrations are comprehensive.
There is an AK 74
Oh, there is. But I'm sure what does it look like?
It looks like an AK 47 Oh, he's got a shorter barrel. And then I
made the other that I made you guys on there that are more
interesting than I may be. I may be wrong. All right. Yeah, they
may maybe but you know, here it is. Let me just read this little
line here from some gun nut site. The AK 47 AK 74. Both
Russian made assault rifles designed by a coalition a coffin
AK named blah, blah, blah. We know that. The years they were
designed if the Ford ak 47 was designed in 47. The AK 7474 is a
newer gun. Okay. All right. I stand corrected. It's a newer
design.
But if you're going to do a propaganda document, do
something that we recognise. Yeah.
Right. It's bull crap anyway. Say 47 know and love.
Yeah. Russia claims pro Russia demonstrated demonstrations are
comprised exclusively of Ukrainian citizens acting of
their own volition like the Mind and Movement in Kyiv. Fact, this
is not the grassroots Ukrainian civic activism of the Euro
Maidan movement, which grew from a handful of student protesters
to hundreds of 1000s of Ukrainians from all parts of the
country in all walks of life, no involvement from us. No
doughnuts from Victoria Nudelman or anything like that. Fact,
there's evidence that many of these so called protesters are
paid for their participation in the violence and unrest. So this
fact document rejecting
everything we do this fact guys be working for free. We don't
know. This fact document is that we should use in the show notes.
Yeah, I think you call this America's answer. But I think
you're completely wrong on this. Because I actually have a clip
of America's answer to this whole problem. Turned out to be
on the view. Oh, no.
doesn't need any further setup.
Well, this is Jenny McCarthy talking. I'm playing lady.
But also he's he's very happy because he's happy for me,
because I just got a
Oh, what happened?
What did I just got engaged? Oh, and this set of plucking hands
crazy
besides Barbara Walters grabbing her and saying Oh, baby, the
whole audience standing Oh, wow, this was 10 points above and
anything Tom Cruise ever did and you'll never see it again.
Okay, thanks. Eric is answered. No, you're right. However on the
no agenda show we look a little further than the view. After we,
why bother? This? The beginning of jeans? Yes. It's a big new
Brzezinski. He has his answer. Oh, as he was called on to his
daughter show. Have you ever noticed Budzinski? So Mika
Brzezinski is his daughter. She's on the Morning Joe Show
sponsored by Starbucks. And whenever he's on, he always has
a trench coat on. Do you notice that?
No, I've never noticed this. I don't watch morning, Joe. I I
watched the view. I think we have to convince him that what
he's doing is really risky to Russia itself. I think I've
taken some steps in that direction. But I couldn't they
couldn't be intensified. And I think talking not doing much but
at least talking to the Ukrainians about if the need
arises. Providing them with some defensive weaponry wouldn't make
sense. It would send the signal. Yeah, the Ukrainians did ask us
for help. In that regard. Do you know what the answer has been?
We offer them prepackaged food for their soldiers. Well, you
can't win a military concert by throwing pancakes at somebody.
dinger Yeah, he's
good, isn't he? Oh, yeah, he's hilarious. I've been reading
more and more because I'm so interested in the German
connection to the Ukraine in 1918. Ukraine was essentially
kind of formed by German military, for food. It was the
breadbasket of Europe. It was really all you know, all this
food that needed to be grown there. And this Donetsk region
wasn't even a part of initially of of Ukraine at the time. But
then they discovered there was all the all the coal was there.
So they said, Screw it. Well, that's Ukraine to win, because
we need some of that coal. All this in the first world war
stuff. And now we're back. And I just got to wonder Germany fits
into this somehow and beyond the economic well, maybe it isn't
beyond the economic part. I don't know if Samantha Power who
is now this woman. She creeps me out.
Now. She's totally creepy. And she's, she's floating around the
world. And she's, she's looks. She looks like a Berkeley
hippie, or old Berkeley hippie. And she's always wearing like a
T shirt that the sleeves are way too short. And it's kind of this
this this she's skinny. And she and her hair looks like she's
never was washed in her life. And she's and she's weird to
listen to.
Um, she is also the one who wasn't she. When in 2008. Didn't
she say Hillary Clinton's a monster. And then but she was in
the she was working in the Obama administration. Then she got
kicked out and she got brought back in somehow. This some
there's a weird, right about yeah, there's a weird history
with her because she was she was kicked out. Or she resigned. And
then she was bought in, brought back in. She is married to Cass
Sunstein, who was also he's an advisor. He's a professor. And
he's the guy that that wrote the white paper, which he can't
remember anymore. Yeah.
Where is it? Right. She's the one who said She's a monster.
Yeah. She was on the she was on the 2008 campaign for Hillary's
campaign. Yeah, no, no, she was Washington the Hillary I thought
she was a senior advisor to Barack
Obama. And then But then she's Oh, that's what that's right.
She says she's a monster. And then she had to leave because it
wasn't sportsmen like, and it turns out, you know, it's okay.
Come back in just a couple of years later, it's all fine. Now
regardless,
she is now Hillary gets in, she is off.
And I think she's, she's a She's dangerous. And he or she has
talked because she's continuously trying to get more
sanctions in the Security Council, as she's our ambassador
to the United Nations. There's actually photographs of her and
the Russian ambassador to the UN. And she's standing next to
them kind of like, the guy is literally like leaning back and
has his hand out like dude Back up, bitch. Like she's really
intimidating and doing I don't know, of course it's
photographic. So called evidence you don't really know. But she's
weird. She's getting in people's face. And here's what she feels
is so great about what we're doing, which I have to question
if this is something we want to be doing at all, or if we, if we
do why also
talked about the possibility of raising sanctions. But can the
United States actually do anything that would really stop
Russia at this point? Well, Georgia already the sanctions
that we put in place, have brought the ruble to an all time
low in terms of its value. The Russian stock market has
depreciated by 20%. Investors are fleeing. And that's just on
the basis of the sanctions that we put in place up to this
point. The President has made clear that in depending on
Russian behaviour, sectoral sanctions against energy
banking, mining could be on the table. And there's a lot in
between. So I think we've seen that the sanctions can bite and
if actions like the kind that we've seen over the last few
days continue, you're going to see a ramping up of those
sanctions.
Okay, sanctions can bite now what is the point of and who
wins? When the ruble devalues to its lowest point in recent
memory? The stock market is down 20%? Who is really benefiting?
Do the Germans benefit from that? Who benefits? Yeah,
well, they're not really trading for their oil in rubles. No, the
Bureau's there's we've been trading
the trading of gas in euros. Sorry, they're trading gas in
euros.
Right? And the but, but the Germans do benefit of their
investors. Because if there's markets down 20%, that means a
lot of stocks are goodbyes. Because these things don't stay
that way the ruble kind of rebounded a little bit. And it
is a lot of people that benefit from these fluctuations are
speculators people go short. I mean, there's money to be made.
When you do sabre rattling. I think a lot of the stuff that we
see, even though we don't talk about too much on the show, I
think a lot of it is is people creating panics and markets so
they can buy and sell in advance. I mean, it seems to me
that that Putin could do all kinds of crazy things, if he
wanted to make a lot of money for Russia, right? Is he would
short a bunch of peace docs and then say something that was
crazy, we're gonna bomb them, right, and then watch the things
collapse and then then sell
now could this also have something to do with the G 20,
finance ministers and all again, we're gonna set up our own
system or do our own screw the US we don't need and we'll have
our own, you know, or a potential move towards. That
could be again, as Dr. valuation,
we've been tracking this since the beginning of our show, which
are these machinations by these, these, these drinking clubs that
get out of control? Because and a lot of the US, of course, are
behind these things, because we have to keep the petro dollar
strong or we're going to be totally toast. Right. But so we
have to be on the side of that. And that's, you know, so when
something threatens that we have to like, do something like we're
doing which is creating a ruckus.
And we're doing a good job on that. Bill. I
you know, that's one of the things
I do. Well, here's Tom Friedman, this douche. Now what is he
again? Is he a climatologist? No.
He was a climatologist, because he seems to be speaking about
climate delay. Oh, no, wait, he's a New York Times columnist.
He's a columnist. Does he have any particular field of
expertise that we're aware of?
He does economics. Okay. So he
was on Fareed Zakaria as I'm a unconstitutional douchebag on
CNN show. And he said the following which you know,
there's a Friedman is in this new 12, or nine part Showtime
series about climate change, which is supposed to scare us
all into it's been packing them in handing over tax money to
save our Earth. And here's how he crosses the he goes from
Russia, to Syria, to climate change, and back again, and it's
he's on drugs,
freedom, and I'm gonna ask you something which you think I'm a
bad guy? If I were hoping that Vladimir Putin turned off the
gas to Europe? Because I'm That's my secret hope because I
believe if Putin turns off the oil and gas to Europe right now,
it would be the equivalent of the 1973 Arab oil embargo, which
is what launched the solar wind and efficiency industry. We only
got the first auto mileage standards after that. I think we
are poised to take off. I hope you bought solar stocks last
year, because if you did, they're all exploding. And I
don't have to tell you about Tesla stock. We just need a
little push. We just need Vladimir to do the right thing
and turn the gas off. I'm happy to pay all the energy bills for
the Ukraine because the impact it would have on the whole clean
tech industry industry which is poised to take off now would be
just like 1973 You go Vlad, give us give it give it to us.
Okay, let me can I, I gotta throw a personal anecdote in
here. Because I've watched this. I was around during the 70s when
they had this situation occur and there were long lines. You
had to wait in line to get gasoline because these OPEC
douchebags had screwed us in some sort of scam. And it was
very similar to the scam that Enron ran on California where
they were giving us brownouts and blackouts and, and you'd get
a brownout or a blackout. What the hell's going on? Oh, well,
those power plants down there had all these phoney baloney
reasons that this was going on. It never made any sense to me
and it is obvious something was going on behind the scenes, it
should have been resulted in people going to jail. So in the
70s, you had this situation occur and so everybody went with
all kinds of solar panels and these other operations, there
must have been 1000 startups just in California alone to put
in a lot of the impetus was the solar these tubes, glass tubes
that were on the roof, and the glass tubes were warmed by the
sun and then the you get warm water from that instead of
having to use your boiler. Nice, seriously. Yeah. It within about
I think by 1980 when this whole thing kind of the OPEC guys got
back in line, they all folded. And I am reminded of what's
happened to Kleiner Perkins of great venture capital company
that went all in with green because they got Al Gore on
their on their side. And they all those funds lost money. This
is this is an unbelievable cycle to me and it keeps coming and
going and it's all bogus.
I what I recall, I was a ride away. But let me
summarise sorry, I forget the point. I didn't make the point.
And now there was what he said about the semis bullcrap. Ah, it
didn't start anything positive. In fact, big if you can even go
back to the big cars, you couldn't buying a big giant car
like you know, a Cadillac when they were big in the 70s that
it's all became frowned upon. It really hurt the US auto industry
because we never were equipped to do little dinky cars in the
loop and what it realised
if anything, the Jap and it gave the Japanese a leg up to bring
in all their little Honda Civic. Exactly. Yeah, I remember my
uncle and the whole family. I don't know how this works being
a company guy and everything. But they all had Honda Civics
like yeah, it gets great gas mileage. Everyone's like great
gas mileage. I was thinking this is a shit car.
Yeah, no. And they were all bragging about gas wise. I saw
this happen all over the place. And they didn't have air
conditioning. Right. Once things got back to normal. It actually
hurt the country. Yes. All episode feed minutes completely.
I don't know what he's what he's,
he's smoking something. Yeah, it's it's converting the country
when I was a kid,
start solar, it didn't do anything. And by the way, let's
go to Elon Musk in his car. He has $35,000 and these bolt bolt
crap crap credits for each one of those ssese.
You know, someone mailed me and said that that's not exactly the
the number. It's more like seven.
No, that's a little car. I can get lucky man. beside the point.
Let's look at El Elon Musk's businesses. He gets a subsidy
for building the electric car in credits of some sort of carbon
credits. Send me that guy's letter and I'll often do not do
some work. Yeah, oh, boy gets that gutted Space X, you know,
as an independent decision that he gets all government money.
Yeah. It's all government money. And now that one of the latest
ones, which is part of what FEMA is talking about solar city, so
the Solar City guy come by the other day, solar City's another
Musk's deal. So they put these panels up on your roof. You
don't pay for any of this stuff. You get a slightly lower bill.
And they said well the real thing here you just got to sign
away all your federal subsidies some are these these are some
scam.
So it's government money was a scam. We just don't know exactly
where it is yet.
I don't know where the scam is. It will say this that Musk's
customers, including people who buy the s and the Tesla S brake
car. And people who go and sign up for the Solar City thing
might benefit from Musk scamming, but he's not scamming
the public. He's not scamming his customers. He's scamming the
government. And as you know, there's something admirable
about that, but at the same time, this is taxpayer money.
Right? Anyway, okay. I'm just saying that freedom is full of
crap.
I have noticed that the people who buy a Tesla S kind of
douchey you notice this and I don't and I really don't know
why. And so the guy who said he never have dinner with a robot
publican ever and so he bought a Tesla S. A and as Mickey had
this she was the five by seven Expo I think I told you about
and it's for good for benefit. And then you make little five by
seven inch versions of art and then and then you fight for it.
Anyway. So he had just got his wife had said, oh, you know, and
he's he's coming he has to park the car. So there's valet
parking. Yeah, nobody just got his Tesla and he wants to park
it himself. Okay, so the guy comes in and the first thing I
say of course is where's your extension cord? Yeah, I'm like
I'm like Mr. Humour here. And in your in the answers like this
car so full of cool tech. I look at my iPhone tells me it's 110
degrees that could turn the air conditioning before I even get
to the car, right? Whoa, the easy dude. back. Oh, yeah. Do
you tell us I said you kept the Audi in case you drive to
Houston. Right? I can make it to Houston. Yeah, but you'd have to
charge there. This is going to come back to bite people so hard
once these things are 10 years old. And you know, they'll never
get to 10 the batteries are all crapped out and you got to make
a decision and it's gonna be tough. Me in the South African
dudes. There'll be Elon Musk. And what's the guy's name Botha
over there to Sequoia Capital. They're the ones laughing the
South Africans they're stealing our money anyway. With regard
to stop, but you're right, I've noticed there's something oddly
douchey about the Tesla guys. I mean, they they drive too close
to you when you're doing there they tailgate. They have a
certain weird vibe. What is that? I have no idea. I noticed
the same thing but I can't put my finger on it. Like I'll be
the first to say of people that we all think are douchebags or
the Porsche people right? Well, the test the Tesla is if you
look at a beautiful car. Oh, it's gorgeous. Even if I had the
money. I don't think I would buy it.
I mean, why? Why would I want this? I think the
Jaguars prettier. But it looks like a jaguar. When I first saw
the tests on the road wishes about over a year ago. I thought
it was a Jaguar because it has the
same day has Yeah, but the wrong Jaguar is the big one. Yeah, I'm
an E type guy. If it's not an E type I'm not interested
in the F Oh man. That's the one you want.
Anyways, back to what's going on
these with our donations.
I've given up on any dream which is probably why I hate guys who
have these cars and I can't afford it I hate you know that
that would probably be the
way it could be just a jealous jealousy be a Tesla guy.
No way. No, I was a Rolls guy. I had a Rolls Royce when I had
money when I had my well but I I drove it into New York City
every day and I had a great coupon in the in the glove box
driving along sometimes you have to exchange great coupons.
People will
literally say hey, douche bag, got the great coupon. And I'd
reach over it's like well, yes, I do. I know I was that guy. All
right. You were a dick. So now carry there's there's a clash
going on. And this is interesting to watch. The US
military doesn't really want to go into Syria. Yet John Kerry
really wants to go into Syria and you know, this is all this
has got to be part of this f Russia thing. And I'm you know
now he has according to The New York Times, he has now been
here's the times literally says huddling, huddling he is Mister
carry that big watermelon head freaky Skull and Bones. Yalie
has been huddling with retired generals betray us and Jack
Keane. These guys, of course, together were the architects of
the the surge in Iraq in 2007. And Petraeus works for KKR. He's
a consultant. Now these are big firms.
The private equity company Yeah.
Oh, yeah. He's do with them. Take out tonnes of businesses.
They buy out their bio guys. They have a tonne. I'm sure they
have Halliburton like businesses. So I find this this
I find a little scary Ukraine. I think we're going to be okay.
We're not going to see any fighting there. But something
could happen in in Syria. We know that. Our friends, our NATO
allies, the Turks were looking at into creating a false flag,
which was exposed by one of those, you know, put your phone
calls on YouTube is the new statecraft. But when you look at
it, John, we've got a very, we've got Nudelman. We've got
her husband, Robert Kagan and his brother Frederick Kagan, the
the Iraq people took us into Iraq. We've got to Jack Keane,
Petraeus. These are some this is a cabal.
And what is Obama doing?
Nothing. He's not Obama. He's not working with them. This is
what I'm saying Obama is. He's playing this little game with
Putin like, Oh, you got Snowden? Well, I'm gonna write a document
with 10 points, and I'm gonna get engaged to the girl on the
view. No, no, this is this is a whole different group that's
doing this man. This is them a little sacrum clip. And this is
a you're not frightened by any of this. No,
I'm a little background. But there is a make a little
background clip. That Syrian update clip but I want to set it
up. This is Seymour Hersh, who is real
Yeah. And and has been ignored despite his award winning
journalistic career. But he's
got lots of creds. So he's on of all things Democracy Now,
because they're the only people that have put them on talking
about the phoney baloney rocket attack that we almost bombed
Syria over. Yeah. And then he also just makes it an
observation about Turkey. And it's just like, No, he wouldn't
be on NBC or CNBC and Miss NBC or, or, or Fox
amateurs. And so I don't know why we're talking about multiple
launch rockers, and these are homemade weapons. And it seems
very clear to most observers, as I say, even to the UN team that
did the final report, the UN because of whatever rules they
have, wasn't able to say that who filed what they could just
say, they just could describe the weapons and never make a
judgement. But I can tell you, I quote somebody from inside that
investigation unit, who was very clear that the weapons we're
firing were homemade. We're not Syrian Army. i This is asked and
answered, these are arguments that go on. This is I assume
it's a blog. I don't know the I don't know the blog. But this
has been
Turkey's interest, if it were the case, and pushing the red
line and supporting an attack that would be attributed to
Assad. Their interest in getting the US to attack Syria,
oh, my god, totally a great interest because Aragon has put
the prime minister of Turkey has put an enormous amount of effort
in and, and funds and others including his intelligence,
service and disposal in the eye, he and he and Bashar like, you
know, at loggerheads, he wants to see him go. And he's been on
the on the attack constantly supporting the most radical
factions there. And also, I must say, he's also supporting the
secular factions, the people who seriously want to overthrow
Bashar and don't want to see a jihadist regime. They just want
to see a government that's not controlled by a by one family,
you know, and yeah,
exactly. But you know, see the whole thing,
this whole thing may be really a, a Turkish scheme.
Well, which would mean it's a NATO scheme. It's not It can't
just be Turkish, although they have big issue with the Kurds.
And that's issues.
Do have they seem to have a lot of issues, don't they? Those
Turks, I tell you,
you know, they can foment trouble. It's a big country.
Yeah. And and they're a very, very important. Well, first of
all, they think they're more important than they are because
they used to be important used to be the centre of the
universe. Yes, Istanbul, the Ottoman Empire, Constantinople,
that was the centre of the universe. We have, I think,
clearly identified the auto mania of bringing back the third
wave of the Ottoman Empire. Which, which included all this
turf, I believe? Wasn't all of this part of the Ottoman Empire
back in the day?
Oh, yeah. No, that all the Middle East to hold them as
huge. Me Well, not a word
about our President's visit to Saudi Arabia. I mean, literally,
almost nothing. That must have must not have
gone well. It might have gone very well. I don't know
if something goes well, then everyone's always touting and
how great it is. And there's, I subscribe to all the RSS feeds
for the White House. There's really nothing. Nothing at all.
Well, we have to call it a secret meeting. Other than
Well, Bhandar got fired. This is News. You know who Bhandar is
right. But who's Bhandari Prince Bhandar. He was the intelligence
guy. He was Bush's main main connect to to the Saudis, senior
and junior. And he was yeah, he was really kind of like the go
between and then he became the, the head of the Saudi
intelligence. All that Yeah, right. Okay. Right. And so and I
think he he's deemed is not being successful at something.
So he got fired, which means they'll show up somewhere else
in at some, some drinking club thing aka They are possibly
possibly do you think these these characters John is like
Carrie and Nudelman and Kagan and betray us and Keith, do you
think they do they really believe that what they're doing
is right that this is
this is good. I believe that they do. I think they're
sincere. It's the only way it works so well.
And and they must be doing it from a patriotic standpoint, I
guess you're slightly diluted. Yeah.
But they they they give you know, I don't know, it's it's
disturbing to me. And the probably the most disturbing
thing is that our president, our Commander in Chief seems to be
completely on the sidelines about this. Is this just he
hasn't disturbing actually. Yeah. And that this is when we
need some real leadership because I'm, I don't like these
guys. And anyone who knows anything historically, in the
past two decades of how the United States forget how 911
happened, that we were then pushed into Iraq is the same
people. The name Frederick Kagan, that is one of the guys
who who architected this whole idea.
I'm surprised we haven't heard from Wolfowitz. Wow,
I bet you if you google him, I bet she's around. She's doing
something Hold on. Wolfowitz. Where is he?
Let's see. Now let me say
let me say I'm gonna do I'm gonna do a quick new search.
Let's see, Wolfowitz. No, he's quiet.
Look at him on the you want to look at is the guy would keep
track of Wolfowitz would be the wiki maintainer. Course. Like
that'd be my guess. Oh, she's just horrible looking person.
Let's see. Who else resigned as a World Bank Group due to
scandals? Worse Yeah. Report is a protracted battle over
stewardship proper, prompted by his involvement, a high paying
promotion for his campaign. Personal History. What's he
doing now?
Maybe he maybe he he's overstepped his boundary?
Maybe he might be in the penalty box.
Well, before we get thrown into the penalty box, I desperately
need to thank you for your courage. And say in the morning
to you John C. Dvorak
in the morning, you Adam curry in the morning and all ships and
sea boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the water in all
the days and nights out there.
And to our artists Thank you comic strip blogger for our
episode art for 608 It's funny for all the bitching he does
when we finally chose his art I didn't get like a whole flood of
love. Hey, thanks for choosing my art complaint. Typical later
yeah, we enjoy all the art that our artists make for us no
agenda are generated are calm a reminder. We also need art today
or Yeah, no, really today two pieces for episode 610. This is
the clip show show. Which a Ramsey came put together for us.
And actually, John and I had a rare like three line interaction
on email. And this is this the the concept of a clip show. It's
actually really really good for all these people who are trying
to catch up.
Yeah, I was that year that comes from Dame Tanya in our actress.
Uh huh. In New York, also waitress which is what most
actresses do at and buzzkill Jr. and his wife went to Corso which
is the restaurant restaurant. Works a different Dave Tanya.
Yeah. And I gave her a bottle of wine. Yes, cellar. Yes. And it
was it was Passover dinner or something. Seder. And so she she
was claimed to be kind of embarrassed by getting this
bottle of wine to them. Because she's two shows behind. And she
feels bad about it. Yeah. And I'm noticing from the emails a
while I just got I just heard and this this shows like, I just
listened to 605 and Bob. Oh, 605. We're on 609. Yeah. And I
think a lot of people because the shows are long. And I think
that we have less commuters or people are moving closer to
their work. I don't know, why don't
I think the opposite is true is true that I think we're just
there's just too much. It's just too much show for them.
I think for a lot of people and so now this this clip show will
allow them to at least catch up because they don't have to
listen, you don't have to listen. There's little listening
to the show.
Right? So people who love listening to the show, you can
use this to hit other people in the mouth with it. Or you can
just listen to the clip show and enjoy all those great moments
that you've already heard and then everyone else can catch up.
And by the time were Thursday, everyone should have had enough
time to catch up with them. Episodes maybe.
So we had something in the clip show I want to follow up on.
Okay, remember the discussion about lesbian bed death that you
were not aware of at the time? Yeah, I vaguely became aware
of you. I think you made me aware of this. Yes.
Yes. And then you said, because I read, I added a clip show a
little bit to you said, Oh, I'm going to talk to my two lesbian
friends and find out if they know anything about this or
whatever. Something like that. Yes. never brought it up again.
What did they say? You
know why? They're dead? What? I don't know. I don't remember. I
don't remember what what is the lesbian bed death is like
because of
where you that's where one woman has to take a bunch of
testosterone and grow a moustache and
then she dies.
No, so they can keep their sex life going. Because their sex
life dies. Yes.
Yeah, their sex life died.
She's either I don't know. No, I don't remember. And the only
reason
it comes to mind to me because I was over at Monterey foods. And
there were two there's a lot of lesbians in their shopping and
one of them was just like, outrageous moustache, which I
guess it's some sort of announcement. I'm the one taking
testosterone. I guess. I don't know. It's messaging. I don't
really care. But, but I remember listening to this and uh, you
were gonna do a follow up and you never did. I'm sorry. Well,
I shall know. So I
shall follow up you neither of them. Take testosterone as far
as I know.
You didn't even ask them okay.
I'm sorry. I haven't been out to Los Angeles to do them to call
them hey, it's Adam. How you doing? Yeah. Hey, hey, are you
taking what
you said you were gonna do is all I'm telling
you it's like hey, yeah, hey, lesbians. How you doing? Yeah,
listen, have you heard of this thing? We take testosterone and
then you you don't want to have sex anymore
Alright, let's thanks let me
also think only think everyone in the chat room no agenda
stream no agenda chat dotnet and yes our the way we run this show
is only by true truly from viewers like you. Unlike I keep
seeing PBS viewers like you viewers like you know you're not
it's all your money comes from ads. And you're and you listen
to NPR the whole day it's brought to you by if you say
brought to you by that's not underwriting anymore that just
saying it now brought to you by Carbonite.
You know, the first time concerned they're double
dipping? Yes. First are taking the advertising money by the
tonne. Yeah, this is an unbelievable,
they're triple a triple dipping. They're also tax exempt.
Yeah, they're taking everything and they're taking money from
the total scam or tote bag.
This isn't the money that you send them. It's just it's just
to bind you they don't really care about your money. They're
laughing at you. Look at these idiots send them a tote bag. A
mug. Yes, these mugs are great looking.
And then $150 donation Yeah, you can get a DVD of this show.
Yeah, really.
So luckily the people who support us do it because they
get the true value from it and they're not sending their money
to NPR or PBS and I think that's fine to get the Bill and Melinda
Gates can handle that just perfectly.
We got a lot of good contributions on this show
because three shows in a row with very little input. And
let's start with by thanking a few people including Steven
goulard who came in with $850 from Victoria BC which by the

scientist HDS expects
you to know Matthew Davis 230 $200.33 and Garden Grove. I
started listening to the show around October after hearing
John plug it repeatedly on twit. I must admit at first I found
the show to be simply another entertaining podcast to pass the
time by the way, this is the letter of the show.
It should have said a little a little podcast just to
me, I found the show to be simply another entertaining pie
little podcast to pass the time. Little did I know how wrong I
was. Shortly after listening, the LAX shooting occurred and
introduced me to the six week cycle. Then my company held a
mac and cheese golf competition for the holiday. Recently I went
to the store the gentleman in front of me was buying three
boxes of mac and cheese. I'm one of your 1111 peeps. But I come
home thinking I should make a bigger donation because you guys
are so in touch with what's going on out there. I decided
the rest I decided to rest the fate of my bank account on the
grace of CNN. Wouldn't you know it they're talking about some
aeroplane. Also, their expert is discussing how the plane might
have landed in tact on the ocean and sank in one piece. Are you
kidding? During the break there was a commercial for cheap
homegrown natural gas yay. And right at this commercial break
was as it was playing my girlfriend brought home some
kale salad I give up here's my money you guys can have it.

great but it is true. We do we know what's going on. And we are
in touch with the people

good one. Yeah, that YouTube provide. And no Adam I'm not

I hope the other producers are also show how much they love
you. I would love to give yours like you give yourself a big
blast Carmine and LG why at the end a tip to the producers and
supporters. If you take English language classes, it's a good
idea to consider bringing clips of the show to class. As
advancing listening practice. It's a good idea. By the way,
that's what Garcia doesn't sound.
Right. I think that's a fabulous idea.
You've got karma
Oh, you know, just just as a little aside, I have now on
sideband want to on CW so Morse code three on sideband have
talked to hams in Cuba, Ukraine and Russia. And
you know if Hi, I'm John C and CW Yeah, so two men code with

you must have gotten confused with the taxis in Bangkok. I
have to say doilies. They might make you cringe or smile, but at
least they're a sparkling light. I have to say like some taxis I
had to take in Brooklyn, Berkeley, where my five year old
daughter spoiled by Japanese primness refused to enter what
looked like more like a cross between a rubbish din Britain
tip and a dingy living room. Driven by a dubious hoodie

Because we just can't do it without you. We are not PBS we

rest of the producers later on but first remember to go out and
propagate the formula. Our formula
is this we go out we get people in the mouth
you are you I
do want to remind people to channel to Horik dot coms
another way to get there slash na also no agenda show in China.
nation.com. Yeah, should you be locked out? You know, some
places it has to happen for a while. But it does happen
when we and we have producers who are network admins and
systems administrators and they see this stuff happen inside
companies, big organisations all the time. And they they
whitelist us. Right, which is good. Yeah, I would just want to
just want to stay with Well, actually it's al Qaeda Inc a
little bit but staying with Syria for just a moment. There
was a hearing and it was actually a subcommittee hearing.
And on this hearing were Lieberman who was a former he's
no longer senator. Right Lieberman. He's retired. Yeah,
no, he quit. Right. He quit whatever and Harmon The woman
who is now doing stuff for CNN, right was just a Jane Harman
whatever her name is. Yeah. And and this is all kind of in light
of this, you know, this new video came out and well
actually, let me let me play this Anderson Cooper clip. So
you know what I'm talking about in case you hadn't seen it as
well
as CNN exclusive a video that could signal a new round of
plotting by al Qaeda. It surfaced recently on jihadist
websites and shows a top al Qaeda leader dressing.
By the way, it's surfaced recently on top al Qaeda
websites. Have you Googled top al Qaeda website recently, just
so we can get now this is from I didn't know there were any tabs
bullshit. This comes from site s i t. These are the guys that
translate all these videos, although this is you don't need
to translate it because it's just a video of a bunch of guys.
It could be from a movie set as far as I'm concerned. And it
says YouTube very clearly on it. So big, big secret, this al
Qaeda website, I guess YouTube is now kind of website
that 100 followers in Yemen, telling you that he wants to
attack the United States, US officials not saying if they
were caught off guard and didn't know about the gathering or
couldn't get a drone there in time to strike and Barbara Starr
joins me tonight with the latest. Yes, Barbara. The video
is really remarkable. The leader of al Qaeda in the Arabian
Peninsula, also the number two of al Qaeda out in the open
talking to the open followers.
Isn't it extraordinary?
Isn't it extraordinary? Yes, you'd almost think it was
propaganda, says Yemen,
this is the area that the US considers the most dangerous al
Qaeda stronghold. They've tried to attack the United States
before they vowed to try and attack the United States
directly, yet again. And yet 100 of them, including this top
leader and other leaders are able to openly gather and have a
meeting and talk. It may be propaganda, it may be
recruiting, but it's also sending a message to the United
States. We feel strong enough. We feel secure enough that we
can be out here in the open and we're not afraid that you're
going to attack us. So it's a real message.
Yes. It's a message to whom though, Barbara Starr and I
think the follow up conversation explains to us what the
messaging will be. And the meme is dark, they've gone dark. And
we know how,
how many assets or what sort of intelligence we actually have
about about these groups in Yemen, and it was the us aware
of this gathering. Oh,
what kind of question is this?
It's a leading question.
This absolute critical question right now is the absolute
incredible
absolute critical trap. Oh, absolute ignore. And she's I
think she's an absolute critical question.
I think she's an incredible, you
know, absolute critical question. Absolutely.
critical question. Oh,
because a Snowden is gathering?
Well, this is the absolute critical question right now. Did
the us know about it? Or is the intelligence about Yemen right
now. So spotty that they did not know, one of the things that
concerns the CIA, the White House, the Pentagon the most is
this al Qaeda group has gone underground in its
communications to a large extent. They are staying off the
internet, they're staying on cell phones, they've gone back
to using careers that the deal
camels they're using camels are using ham radios, again, I'll
bet you they've gone dark hair
afraid of us surveillance of the US intercepting. So this sort of
going dark, if you will, is one of the big concerns that the US
may not know as much as it wants to about what this group is up
to. And did it know that 100 of them are out there meeting and
they open
now this is a setup. And you can wait for it. Something is going
to happen now. And I end. Here's some follow ups here from
Lieberman and from Harmon, something is going to happen it
will be an American asset. And it's going to be because of the
Snowden leaks that these guys went dark and we couldn't track
them anymore. And they had the South by Southwest of Yemen
where they were all out in the open and no one we didn't know
it had we didn't have the intelligence you see this the
SIG int to go and drone them because let's be fair, if you
got 100 Guys from al Qaeda, on horses and Toyota's, you blow
them up, right. Yeah, that's what we do shouldn't be there
like nah, but they've gone dark underground, because they know
they're being tracked as Snowdens fault. That's right.
And just when you thought al Qaeda was decimated, ah, no, no.
There's a lot more so many weeks. If you can't even ask the
question. Tell me a little more
in detail about al Qaeda. How many of them are there
now? What have we been hearing about? Okay, that
was definitely come out.
It was done. It did. Yeah.
Senator, can you tell us? Yeah,
of course when I was a senator, I could say, I'd like to tell
you, but I can't as close.
If you're no longer senator, why do you still? Why do they still
call them senator? Are you a Senator for the rest of your
life? Somehow?
That's been Yes. Something I've always noticed. I don't know.
When that started. It may go way back. But yeah, you're always
Mr. President for the rest of your life. You're always Mr.
Senator. Mr. You know, Your Honour, Your Honour,
the Honourable the honourable. Whatever. I know uncle Don is
still Ambassador Greg. They still call him that.
You call him that?
Ambassador, Greg passed the spinning.
But the truth is, at this moment, I don't know the exact
answer. I am struck by the number which is getting some
currency that there are no coda, they're gaining some currents
and 1000 foreign fighters in Syria now. So they're members of
al Qaeda or associated groups or groups that could fit the
general description of violent Islamist extremists.
I mean, let me think with
your question, please do this clip. The hell's he got to do
with anything?
Because he's a spokesman. What does Harmon have to do with
that? She's also no longer a representative. Well,
what's he got to do with anything? They
are script kiddies, they they they say, what is needed for a
soundbite in a subcommittee to then push things to the next
level? And of course,
they know, what's your expertise? They're not even in
the government. They're not Hello,
are you questioning a United States? Senator,
this is unbelievable that they would even be testifying.
And the truth is, in some of the countries we worry about the
numbers of
breach by stuff, he's not even elected office anymore, or
associates
are probably in the hundreds. And yet, if you're prepared to
blow yourself up to kill people, you can still have a terribly
painful effect on us.
If you talk about the 10,000 foreign fighters in Syria,
you can see where this is going. Obviously, this is moving
towards Syria, we need to take some money out. Yeah.
Are you just talking about
those that are fighting against the government? Are you
including Hezbollah on the side of the government?
No, I'm not including Hezbollah. These are primarily excuse me,
Sunni? Of course, I'm not including the Free Syrian Army
or the other opposition groups to Assad that started talking
about
he's talking about the 10,000 foreign fighters in Syria, him
an expert on this. He's Are you questioning the United States
senator
with a peaceful protest? These are violent Islamist extremist
who have come in from around the world, not just the region.
That's a big number. And that's why I said in my testimony, that
I think that Syria today is rapidly becoming the most
threatening terrorist sanctuary in the world
now that it's the most threatening terrorist sanctuary.
This Are you questioning United States senator, he this is a
setup. Now. I'm going to play it all back for you. We need to
have so we have no more sick and on any al Qaeda, certainly not
in Yemen. But Syria, F Russia is the number one place where now
we know there's the it's not just al Qaeda, its terrorist.
It's crazy Muslim extremists. This is the sanctuary is here.
And now let's bring in
a second stop. I just want to throw one logical point in here
and you can tell me where I'm crazy. If this is all true, then
why don't we just back aside and get rid of all those creeps?
Are you questioning your United States senator young man?
Because you wouldn't question a former Congresswoman whose name
is Harmon?
Well, I said in my testimony that that some are predicting
now that the way we will finally intervene adequately in Syria is
when there is unfortunately a terrorist attack against us or
our interests.
And who is this some she's talking about? This is
people are you questioning a former Congresswoman in the
United States currently CNN commentator Are you questioning
that young man
by those there that I agree with Senator Lieberman that Syria
could easily become the sequel to Afghanistan and in training
large numbers of terrorists?
Another logical question. Yes, please. Is why are these are
this the only two people they can stooge up to talk before
Congress to give this sort of testimony? They don't find it
actually. The intelligence
they actually know, or anything in this same session ran in in
the same session. They had Frederick Kagan
no talk
check it out. But his testimony was so boring. I couldn't pull a
clip from it. Five minutes of birth. And if Frederick so he's
on the same panel, Frederick Dr. Kagan, as they call them, Dr.
Kagan, Frederick Kagan, brother, Robert Kagan, husband to
Nudelman Newland project for New American Century the guys who
got us into Iraq, he's on this panel. This is a propaganda
panel. That's why they bring in people who used to not under
oath probably even for this, this is just a subcommittee.
Let's continue with Ms. Harmon.
But on your question of how many in Al Qaeda? I think there is no
answer to that question. I mean, think amoebas. I mean, it's a
it's a loose affiliation of terror groups that form and
reform around projects. Some of them are al Qaeda, some of them
are not Al Qaeda is now fighting.
What does this got to do with amoebas? Thinks amoebas have
projects and they say, Come on, come on, Lou. amoebas. Let's go
over here.
So as to amiibos, walk into a bar. No, you don't have one i?
On a better day, I'd nail it.
Sorry, with groups like isI S, which it considers too radical,
I find that quite, quite amazing to get your head around. But
also there are Sunni and Shia. I'm still
trying to get my head around amoebas. If we get isI Yeah,
terror groups inside of Syria, for example, Hezbollah is a
sheer terror group. And yet a lot of these other groups, al
Qaeda being one, or are Sunni groups, and they're fighting
each other. So it's just two conclusions. Number one, it's, I
think, impossible to measure. But number two, let's not
overstate the number of al Qaeda. That's their narrative.
We don't want to make them look
what she's doing. Well, she
actually she gives something away in this next clip. So to
summarise here, al Qaeda has gone underground, they've gone
dark. Thank you, Snowden. I'm just giving you the whole
narrative. This is how it has to play out. So now we can't even
we don't even know when they're having their jamboree. It's out
kind of on the air. It's kind of January. They're getting their
Scout badges. So yeah, when we could have drone the we could
have taken out the entire Yemen al Qaeda note, we didn't know
that. And we're so it's foolish that they post YouTube videos,
which of course we can't track. We have no idea. Anyway, forget
about that. So now it's clear that Syria is such a mess with
all their archived and all this. Who cares? Syria is where the
next attack is going to come from. So there's going to be an
attack. Unfortunately, as Harman said on American interest, I
would actually I would say, an L all aircraft it may not be a
huge sum that's going to happen with it should be an Israeli
thing. Just to mix it up a little if I was in charge, no,
no, no, no, no, come
on. No mixing up.
I want to mix it up a bit. It's
all Yeah, you'd want to mix it up a little bit. So but no, it's
got to be the same old same old it's gonna it might be a May 1
thing this may be the six week thing they may be all bring it
all together to something really spectacular.
But what we should have a real event we can't just have a
phoney baloney event should be a real event that's
going to have a real event. That's the problem. They can't
get these guys to do a real event they're fighting. So they
got to create first to create the like fear and all it's
because it's known we're not spying enough. Right. Even
though the spying didn't do anything about the Boston thing.
Did it teach you anything about anything funny? Or the Malaysian
aeroplane? I can they didn't figure that out. Yeah. So that's
okay. So let's set this up. And then let's do a real phoney
baloney thing or better stop one just before it happens.
And you know that we have a whole bunch of troops in, in
Africa, in the continent of Africa, and that we have these
guys like 150 guys looking for Kony. And we have got guys
roaming around the advisors. Well, yeah, the advisors, you
know, these advisor groups that we keep sending in that we can't
with all the spy satellites that can isolate these guys in Yemen
so we can draw on them. We can't find Kony, ah,
well, it's because as Harmon is about to tell us, they're not
really looking for Kony. They're doing something else.
military leaders say the same thing. I do think we have to win
the argument with some kid in the boonies of Yemen deciding
whether to strap on a suicide vest, and
we just get a visual. I'm in the boonies of Yemen as a suicide
vest. What do I do? Do I I choose some cut, or do I strap
on the vest strap
on a suicide vest. And the way we win our argument that we win
that argument is to convince him of a narrative about the United
States very different from the one he believes the propaganda
he's been brainwashed to believe. And that will require
more than the use of kinetic force, I would keep it on the
table, but I also would do other things. Diplomatic,
well, she's she's about to stop stepping on her. She's about to
tell you
diplomatic efforts, economic efforts, doing things that we
are now doing in North Africa to keep states from failing, we're
inserting. It's a very interesting thing that we're
doing some of our special command forces to keep
governments from failing. That helps. So I think it's a
complicated problem. But whack a mole is not an adequate
solution.
So what we do is we send these under the guise of we're going
to help you find Kony. That's it. We're actually guided we're
actually country puppet mastering the leaders of these
African states. That's what she just said. Guys guiding them.
And we need more propaganda. Wow. More propaganda. I think
it's perfect. Very interesting thing we're doing there. Oh,
that's new. I thought it was to go and find Kony new.
Helen Kony. No, no, no, no, no. Oh,
wait, stop. Hold on a second, John. Oh, my goodness. Breaking
news, breaking news.
Breaking news out of Boston. This is video of an area near
the Boston Marathon finish line on Boylston Street. It is not
live video we're showing we're not showing your live video the
Boston Police has asked us not to show live images and why
not? Why not? Why can't you show live video you show live video
of people kids drowning in a ferry. You show live video of
the people grieving over their loved ones who are dead or
missing. But no, I'm sorry Boston said please don't show
any live video. Why? Why? Because a rice cooker is not the
same as a pressure cooker you morons Qaeda
disturbing scare in Boston on the anniversary of the marathon
bombings in just hours after a memorial ceremony. Police
arrested a 25 year old man who was carrying a backpack
containing a rice cooker
yeah to make rice. It's not a pressure cooker.
You may recall pressure cooker bombs killed three injured more
than 260 Last April. The backpack was detonated as a
precautionary measure did not contain a bomb
do you actually see? So they placed this thing so cameras are
looking at it while they detonate it?
Well what started detonate they detonate the rice cooker. How?
What how did they detonate there's no bomb in there? No.
They blew it up with explosive their own blood their own bomb.
Yes. This is disgusting propaganda. And I apologise I
apologise for my country. Everyone who was here on a visa.
You got a green card? I'm sorry. I don't know where it went
wrong. We're trying to undo an awful wrong with our with our
police state. Please help us you're welcome here. Because
this is crap. Fucking makes me
mad lessly. Nobody watches this show. Oh. Now I did get a clip
from the same thing. I have a Boston backpack thing but it
did. That's better. That one was the let me play this other
thing? No. This was during the ceremonies where they're
extolling the Boston bombers situation and how great we are
as a country. And so Biden comes up and which brings me to a
question when Biden says this. Okay,
here is Biden,
on America will never, ever, ever stand down. We are Boston.
We are America. We respond. We endure. We overcome and we own
the finish line.
I mean, America. Yes. Here's the question says America will never
ever, ever stand down. Now explain to me why we stood down
at Benghazi. We're told to stand down and these guys who say
we're getting killed here. Have
you been watching Sean Hannity again? No,
I haven't been but I'm telling you. I remember they've we had
the clips all know we were told to stand down, right. Biden
comes out here in Boston. Okay. We will stand down in Boston, we
will stand down in the country because we have, you know,
citizens that will stand down in Benghazi. But he says no,
America will never never ever, ever stand up
while he's running for president in case you hadn't heard. I took
a different clip from his little speech which this is what I
thought was interesting to me. Are
those quote survivors?
I love the quote survivors. What does that mean? What he says to
those quote survivors? I know Yeah, well it gets worse.
To those quote survivors. Oh, my God, you have survived and you
have soared. It was worth it was worth it. I mean,
it was worth it, just to each
of you speak. You're truly, truly inspiring. I've never
heard anything so beautiful as with all of you just
you know, this guy. He's gonna be hilarious to watch run for
president against Hillary. Yeah, it could be quite entertaining.
MSNBC to finalise this little bit of Boston. Very interesting.
So they, this MSNBC woman is essentially going to read the
party line to cover up the FBIs incompetence on the circuit and
this is what this is what all the dragnet surveillance is
supposed to stop. And of course, the FBI is blaming Russia on not
giving him the right information, where I thought we
could listen to anything anytime anywhere and we know how to do
this and it's also great but okay, didn't work so well in
this case, and then she brings on us a spokes hole for I wrote
this down hold on a second. This is a fantastic outfit. I'm gonna
have to have I'm gonna play the clip while I'm looking for this.
Just have a listen to what he how he brings us right back
around to now kinda As
for his late brother, Tamar Lin, a government report Thursday
site several steps where the FBI did not follow up on its
investigation of the older brother prior to the bombing.
However, it also finds no evidence that these missed
opportunities to further scrutinise him or his brother
would afford the attack. If anything, the Boston Marathon
bombing is a reminder both at home grown attacks on our soul
are rare. But also that despite our best efforts, there will
always be safety in numbers, even even in seemingly safe
spaces from a determined few bent on mayhem.
You know, it's so pathetic when you listen to this. You're not
watching it and you hear how she's just a prostitute, a
spokes hole for the Ministry of Truth. She's literally she's
stumbling through the copy that is handed to her by the
authorities. It's It's creepy to hear this
woman is an NBC terrorism analyst and a senior partner at
Flashpoint global partners.
Flashpoint global partners. This is what I was looking at. See,
this is us, man. This is so Flashpoint partners. There a
proactive approach identifying potential threats illuminating
the dark web. That's right. Flashpoint partners is dedicated
to meeting the challenge of providing its customers with the
data and expertise expertise necessary to demystify the dark
web. The areas on the internet where mainstream search engines
are unable to penetrate and turn the unknown and unseeable into
actionable intelligence to assist corporations, governments
and individuals in protecting their interests and obligations.
Flashpoint dash Intel dot coms.
So Evan and we were talking about this a little bit in the
break. First of all, what do we know about the sarni of brothers
and what might have caused them to become radicalised? Look,
I mean, we don't know that much. We know bits and pieces.
Reportedly, the FBI has found multiple copies of a magazine on
these folks. Computers inspire magazines of mom making manual
by al Qaeda in Yemen in English.
It's inspire magazine and it's specifically designed
to radicalise individuals here on the west and teach them how
to carry out a homegrown a lone wolf terrorist attack.
You know, I read Inspire. Actually, I've read one through
12. Now I don't think 13 is out. And it's I'm trying. I just
can't seem to get radicalised yet. Are you radicalised? John,
you've read a couple of these inspire magazines, haven't you?
Actually, I've
never even bothered. Oh, but I'm
trying. I just I can't seem to get radicalised
Was this what radicalised them were they radicalised before
they got this? It's not really clear and what the Russians
according to this report passed along to the FBI was far from
definitive. They use the same words this describe this or Niaz
as they used to describe the protesters in my den square and
key and key.
Oh, yeah. So it's the same guys. I
know what exactly the nature of the threat was. And just because
the Russians are angry that someone is sympathetic with
Chechen rebels, that doesn't make a homegrown terrorist.
There are a lot of extremists out there. There are people that
say awful things on the internet. It's very difficult to
tell Who is really a dangerous person? And who is simply
talking loudly?
I'm talking loudly. I tell you, John, this group Flashpoint
partners, are you have you looked at this website? Yeah,
look
at him now.
You know, this is us, man. Look at this. We're subject matter
expertise and data analytics meet.
They have a lot of a lot of these guys that are very, I
wouldn't say the same and say they're sketchy. They're like
guys who couldn't get a job with a real thing.
Yes, that's why I think this is good for us because that's
pretty much what we are. We can't get a job with a think
tank either. So they got Jim Putte, who served in the Central
Intelligence Agency's Clandestine Service for nearly
20 years. He's an Arabic speaker spent some 15 years serving in
Middle East and South Asia. These guys never hear of put it
we got put.
You got put we got put what I can tell he's the only
intelligence guy
well, there's Roger Cressy, a partner with Liberty group
ventures in Arlington, Virginia. What do you think those guys
are? Senior VP of Booz Allen Hamilton, come on. That's those
are the right guys. Okay. And then this other guy from cyber
factor? Yeah, well, yeah. Okay. I'm thinking of solutions where
they have solutions. What's the modelling that can identify
potential threats they help you know your enemy? I'm telling
you, this is the kind of thing you and I can do. Yeah, we got a
picture of the New York skyline
little operation like this and collect some government money
and write some reports. Yeah. Need to report writer who like
enjoys write crap.
Doesn't Ramsey do that? We get him to do that
thing. Ramsey's? Yeah, he could do a clip show, but I don't
know. But the report writing we need a report writer, some guy
was good at writing these kinds of reports that you'd have to
have, you know, they there's a certain style and the rest of
it.
So here's the tweet from the Boston Police Department at
Boston police BPD media advisory for officer safety. Media
outlets are discouraged from showing any live video of
backpacks found near finish line. And I guess CNN reads that
tweet and goes okay. Well, we shouldn't do that.
Yeah, that's what all news organisations do. Whatever the
police tell you to do news organisation do
it. You just do it people.
Whose side are you on anyway?
Yeah. Are you part of the problem? It's disturbing today
is, I think, tap day. Like tap dance tap day at Yale. tap
dance. No, not tap dance. This is when you're walking around on
the Yale campus. And you get a tap on the shoulder. And then
you will hear Skull and Bones except for reject.
This is when you get tapped to join Skull and Bones. Today,
today yes, it's today's tap day. And bad news regarding our idea
for the we had you know the our video show that we're going to
do and one only one person can buy buy this and own it by
auction. Yeah. I think there's something about this idea that
which originated with the Wu Tang Clan. Right, which is not
we shouldn't be doing this. Did you hear what happened to the Wu
Tang guy? Yeah, yeah, some guy. Andre Johnson. Right. Like come
on.
To first off this is Johnson Hey, cuts office by the way.
Nobody uses this headline. I know it's Johnson loses Johnson.
Johnson No, it's Johnson loses Johnson comma, jumps,
jumps but survives.
And yes, this is this is bad mojo with I think I'm convinced
it has to do with their whole marketing campaign
could be copied they're not allowed to do such a thing.
The music industry is making them crazy.
So they gave him some crazy drug. That's right. It has some
hypnotist came into you want to cut it off, don't you? Self off.
Now jump out the window, jump out the window. You can buy
chips off a second story window and breaks his arm or whatever
and he they find him and they take the cut off pecker and drag
them to the hospital. I don't know what happened since then.
Just a ridiculous story. Yeah, I know a
couple of snow job thingies. I've found out what Poitras is
really doing in America.
Laura Poydras Yeah, her friend.
She is here for meetings. She will be directing the new Jeff's
is it Jeff skull that the guy? Skull skull SK o ll the skull
guy the eBay also like eBay guy. i The money guy behind
Inconvenient Truth. Oh that guy isn't a Jeff Skoll.
I don't know who it is. I can't remember these names.
Yeah, Jeffrey skull is an important guy important guy. He
is I think this money come from eBay or not Amazon Yeah, yeah.
He was the first employee also first president of internet
auction firm eBay. Okay, he
was he was he was an employee while he was number one. Yeah,
he's number one employee Yeah, so
he made a lot of dough he didn't appear driving a car. So this is
Woodside we're all good guys. Let's
just now you have to imagine how it all starts to fit fit
together who Poydras works for pure drive my car for my eBay
guy. And she's been sidelined doesn't she's not writing
anything except Hey, I'm with this guy. She's taking a check
I'm sure. And then teams up with skulls movie company because he
will be doing this no job movie. And she will be the director.
How convenient is that? In fact, that's why she was in Japan in
the first place. Into I'm sorry, in not in Japan in Hong Kong,
and China. Oh, Hong Kong. She was shooting if you recall, she
was shooting the movie. She was already starting this and now of
course it's all heated up and everything's perfect. And now
sculpin come in. This is what this guy does. Like did
Inconvenient Truth working on Inconvenient Truth too. I'm
gonna go get another Oscar and I'm sure this this is this has
Oscar written all over it. So Poitiers will be directing that
skids are oiled Oh yeah.
Meanwhile there's been an interesting campaign discovered
by a guy whose website I track why subscribed his arson by
the way, I want to looking at schools wiki page. A skull is
you know, the wiki guys tend to dog some of these pages,
especially when they're biographies. And this one here
looks to be just like a big promotional thing. And I just
have to read this line because I would ask why is this on his
wiki page as something important unless it's code for something I
don't know what it would be other interests interesting
Okay. Other interests as subhead it says goal owns a Tesla
Roadster from Tesla Motors, a battery electric sports car. The
third Tesla off the line? P two dash Viet Vin F 003. He's also
an investor in the company. What who cares?
Yeah, because these things are, it's it's Twiki it's not my
little weeny boys. Man, you can't really fuck here's here's
what I'm gonna say fuck Wikipedia. That's what I'm gonna
say. I'm sorry.
I said it shouldn't have said that. I
have I know they're gonna kill me now. No, I prefer to read a
Nolan Canadian, by the way. Yeah,
a Nolan. Now this is a guy who listens to the show. And I often
post links from his blog, a nolan.com in the show notes. And
he he hates this whole cabal in Germany. He's always tracking
what's going on with the Poydras and Applebaum. And he says it's
very interesting. Twitter is being spammed with hundreds of
different users tweeting the exact same message. Then he
lists them all. And here's Okay, so the for all different.
Twitter addresses Jane cake. Here's the software that helps
Edward Snowden avoid the NSA. And it's all pointing to a tails
and Tor, which is the Applebaum coordinated, spyware that, I
guess even Snowden himself said if you really shouldn't be using
any of this. Here's Google tech, at GG tech. M Y. Here's the
software that helps Edward Snowden avoid the NSA. So
there's hundreds of tweets Josephina Barnum, here's the
software that helps Edward Snowden avoid the NSA. Beauty
horoscope health feeds have food recipes, ie hads food. Here's
the software that helps Edward Snowden avoid the NSA to what is
going on with this. We have hundreds of so called Twitter
users tweeting exactly the same not retweeting literally
tweeting the same thing over and over again.
Okay, what do you have to sit to set this up properly? You have
to establish accounts on on Twitter years ago. Yeah. To get
enough numbers to make it worthwhile. I've got three
followers. I mean, well, let me
let me just let me grab the food record recipes one let me just
see if I open that. Yeah, that's a good idea. I hadn't actually
done that work on I'd we're doing this together. This is why
we do it. Okay II so it's E heads food and let's see what we
can find out about his particular Twitter he has
330 893 followers he's on 48,000 tweets and what do I check here?
What am I supposed to be like a look
at some of the open them up so he's like you get his whole feed
and see what some of the stuff he's feeding out there. Too much
propaganda. This looks to me to be a plant for da ma
well food recipes let's see. Interesting. There's lots of
it's this is just a PR company. Sport Premier League title
right? There's nothing about food food recipes. New
challenges contest Silbert. What is this watch 80 years worth of
bizarre and historic moments thanks to British pathway this
is just a pure PR company pretending to be a food blog.
tweeter Prince William makes everyone a bit nervous on
Australian cliff edge as Duchess Kate looks on it kidding me.
That's just one of them. Let's look at another one. What do we
have? What was the Google tech guy? Let's find that one that
was interesting. That is G G tech. M as in Mike. Why GG tech
and why? Let's see what that one's doing. What so what is the
campaign here? Who was and why? Why does this have
any how many followers on that one?
That one? Well, the the food guy 3800 This Google tech only has
66. So this is nothing. Dropbox acquires loon will shut down its
cloud photo service Walmart takes on Western Union. Creating
bio shock was a protracted ego driven but this is
well, here's what it here's what it obviously is obviously a
honeypot.
Yeah, yeah, Tor entails Yes, catch a
honeypot. And so they and they, there's a public relations
agency. And they you know, they're all doing this now. And
they're all various schemes that they don't want to talk about
generally, but but you can find out about most of these things.
These public be huge public relations agencies, they have
these systems. And they you say, well, here's what I like to do.
I'd like a contract. We need to get some promotion out to get
people to go to this site. They don't even say it's a honeypot,
to just have the public relations company take care of
it and say, well, we That's great. We have you know, what
we've done, we've got 300 bogus accounts that we've developed
and cultivated over the last five years with different
numbers of people, and we can tweet it out. And we'll you'll
get a huge response. Right? And the joke of it of course, and
nice Nolan found this, the joke of it of course, as these lazy
bastards that are running these agencies can even vary it it's
the exact same tweet which makes it so easy to find it's very
very much like when we look up a lot of our stories we look for a
line within the story and then put it in Google and you'll find
the story the exact same story with the exact same headline
repeated throughout the news media.
So if you do this actual line let's why don't we just do this?
Here's the software that helps Edward Snowden avoid the NSA put
that into Google
check it out. Okay, well on and gadget
Of course, oh a lot of Engadget hay and gadgets in gadget
somehow software that help note Edward snowed helps Edward
Snowden avoid the NSA
was Edwin Edwin. Edward. That's all I need is, well, here's the
software that helps Edward and I'll just do the search based on
that. You don't need a lot of Engadget pops up dude and some
Twitter smucker.com re Gator.
Okay, so John, John's right at the top. John fingers wrote
this. Yeah. Oh, so maybe he's on the take?
Well, you wouldn't be able to take he was just somebody gave
him put a piece of paper on Friday. Right, but does in I
don't know. We had to talk to John fingers and ask him why he
ran the story. Now what I'm going to tweet is, same thing.
Here's the software they had to join. Maybe get it on the hit.
And then I'm gonna put equals honeypot? Yeah, yeah. Good.
That'll put a stop to it.
That'll stop them in their tracks. That'll do it.
Good work. He communicates with the media using tails a
customised version of Linux Oh, brother. That makes it easy to
use tours anonymity network, and other tools that keep data
private software loads from external drives and doesn't
store anything locally. So it's relatively trivial for Snowden
and his contacts to discuss leaks without leaving a trace.
Okay, so we can assume that's not true. Yeah, as a honeypot.
There's a there's a big push right now. And it's a war on
weed. And at first I didn't see it but I was lucky enough to be
driving around a bit with Miss Mickey we went to our dance
class and stuff as you know, I don't have a phone anymore. So
we listen to the radio, the radio, the sync to National
Public Radio, national Pentagon radio. And the the small study
came out a very small study that says, ah, even casual marijuana
use can mess up your brain if you're a young adult. Ah 20 pot
users in the study 20 There's a huge study, which was huge study
of 20 ages 18 to 25, said they smoke marijuana an average of
about four days a week for an average total of about 11
joints. Half of them smoked fewer than six joints a week,
researchers scanned their brains and compared the results to
those of 29 users who are matched for age, sex and other
traits. The results showed differences in two brain areas
associated with emotion and motivation. Yeah, yeah, the
amygdala. No kidding, man.
I don't want to clean up my room right now. Oh worry.
Users showed higher density than non users as well as differences
in shape of those areas. Both differences were pronounced more
pronounced in those who reported smoking more marijuana now. So
this prompted this prompted an entire barrage. And this is
clearly PR companies at work. An entire barrage of reports and I
heard this one on NPR, which is just a quick clip. It was like a
seven minute bit. And it was all about moms and parents and dads
in Colorado, and how they're dealing with their kids. Because
you know, you can't legally consume the devil weed until
you're 18 or 21 in Colorado. I don't know. I think it's 21
maybe 21. So you can't legally consume the devil weed. And now
I grew up in Amsterdam, where there never has been an age
restriction is not even technically legal. But it's just
it's allowed. And yeah, when I was 15, I maybe even 14 had
smoked a joint. Am I okay, that's great. Yeah, that felt
kind of funny. But no, because it was wasn't such a big deal.
You don't walk around stoned all day. Same with alcohol. If you
look 16 or 15, you could go into a bar and get a beer. No big
deal. But listen to these parents. Instead of having a
normal dialogue and a normal relationship with their kids.
Now these are teenage kids. This one parent really stuck out and
and I can just visualise this woman and she is she's so wired.
I think she's just going to explode she's I don't know This
is sad. Really sad when I hear this
one in six kids who uses marijuana eventually becomes
addicted to it according to study cited by the National
Institutes of Health
This is so we have this one study really. This one study
Lisa Phil home is a Denver mom who attended the panel. She has
had lots of open very candid discussions with her two teenage
sons about the pressures and temptations to use pot. But at
the end of the day, she says kids need firm boundaries.
And I think it's pretty clear when you're an adult. Figure it
out for yourself when you're a kid Nope.
You already hear this Nope. Listen to this mom. Nope
zero I mean we have a zero tolerance policy in our house
which involves your intesting at home if we think we need it No
way no answer was no way and I think that is how you have to
handle it
zero tolerance All right test your urine stop
you know I'm looking for here do I get it yep
this woman needs to smoke a
joint on believable What a horrible person that woman is
she needs
to smoke a joint
I'm gonna get your kids okay you're taking urine tests right
now line up you do brats No I do Tom parent class in
our house which involves urine testing at home if we think we
need it. We put it down No way. No way. I don't think that is
how you have to handle it.
I feel bad for the kids. I believe this poor woman she's
she's completely psycho.
Psycho. That's it. That's a plant is that's a horrible
person. That woman.
Here's the interesting thing that testing Yeah,
line up. Kids is our weekly urine testing. Here's here's the
thing. Yeah, drink some beer if you have to pee.
This study is one of the very, very, very, very few studies at
all in academia. regarding marijuana, I did not know this
study,
because the results aren't going to be pleasant for law
enforcement. Well
listen to this.
So there's one producer of marijuana in America, it's
University of Mississippi. And if you want to get a marijuana
law, which is illegal, federally, if you want to get it
to study it, and then give it you give it to people and see
how it affects their brains, if they get it approved, and then
provided by that university, and the government doesn't readily
provide those approvals, part of the study, so there's
like a, there's a dearth of actual research even as we enter
this period in which we're running this big social
experiment.
I mean, in a sense, there is an epic amount of research there's
like 1000s of years of research and just a natural study but
like in terms of like published papers No there's not a whole
lot
that I didn't know that there are there are very few actual
studies which is why you get this one little study you know,
2020 subjects and this is a big deal by the way
bullshit by the way of course is bullshit no because there's
plenty of studies are actually are on academics as in Israel.
No, but I'm talking American Studies Oh, no,
we can't touch it. No, I haven't forbid because we've come across
same results the Israelis come up with which is is not a bad
problem. Here's here's good is actually works as a medicine we
still have people coming on to these talk shows especially the
right wing talk shows with you all you know it's gonna kill
you. And they get these people come on in and they go on to
say, you know, there's no real medical benefits It's bull crap.
And that's not true.
Even Sanjay Gupta, says metacognition Sanjay says it
hello back and it
took him a while to snap out of it. Yeah, they actually visited
with these guys in Israel when they slap them around. So what
are you you're just lying to the public? Yeah, because before
that is we had shown on this show Sanjay Gupta was all dead
against all odds, bullcrap. There's no proof that does
anything.
I did see a funny article that the woman was what was this in
the Mother Nature Network, but I'm sure they stole it from
somewhere else saying that part of the problem of California's
drought, which I think is starting to solve itself with
the amount of rain you've received, is because of pot
farms. Yeah, I know. Too many pop farms
that's bull crap. Most of the pot farms by the way, in
Washington state the legal ones now and the ones even the
illegal ones in California are indoors that's where they sell
so many crazy machines and lights and gloat grow lights
and, and most of the pot farms can be spotted by you know, say
helicopters flying around with infrared sensors and they find a
hotspots like why is that house looked like it's red hot and
they find a big pot farm inside the place.
I was talking to Joe you know healthy surprise. Joe has got a
new business. Yeah, man this this guy is going to be so he's
gonna be swimming in money. He said the only problem he's

way beyond that. And it's always nice to see a new entrance to
the table. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. makes it possible for
us to do the show. You know. Just no joke.
Exactly.
Ah, let's see. You want a little update?
Yeah, give me an update.
Okay, let's do a little update
Attention all citizens. This is the command post to carry on. I
don't know what that was John. But suddenly something's going
on. Here is an update as we check in with our actress. Miss
beige Jack. M is beige Jack, of course, is one of the families
of the lost souls on flights. Mh 370. And she was in Malaysia and
now she's in Beijing. And she always like to check in with
Erin Burnett and give us an update on on what's going on
with the plane and and how the Malaysians are really messing
this up. Because you know, she's not like an agent or anything or
acting or anything or trying to set the stage or anything you
and
I spoke last you talked about the plane being taken. That was
the word you used, which really, you know, it's stuck in my head
and a lot of our viewers heads. What are the other scenarios you
think that they should be looking for?
Well, I do still believe the plane was taken.
This is leading the witness. So please, what other scenario
should we be looking for? Please let us know what what you think.
And she of course goes right into well, you know,
what are the other scenarios you think that they should be
looking for?
Well, I do still believe the plane was taken.
I do still believe I love that. That language is great. There's
enough
evidence of it having been flown to support Fat. But even if it
was a ghost plane or zombie plane, even if there had been a
catastrophic failure, and the machine the flight rebooted
itself
now know that this is where I'm all for zombie planes and I do
believe someone took it. But you've got to be a little
careful with me when you talk about the flight rebooting, I
have to put my foot down, you know, zero tolerance policy on
bullcrap like
this, like any computer would reboot itself,
like any computer would reboot itself, it happens all the time
in aviation,
the default behaviour of that would have been to go 360
degrees, which would be due north it wouldn't be to default
to go south.
So yeah, so when you're when your flight reboots, like any
computer would do, the default behaviours go 360 degrees north
and not south. This is the default behaviour.
What she says computer programmer now.
So you know whether it was catastrophic failure or whether
the plane was taken intentionally, we still believe
that there are options that should be explored. And many of
those options are actually Overland.
Well, the agency of course, they're not over
the sea.
We just learned yesterday, Sarah, about about a possible
cellphone connection. And that's all we know, at this point. We
don't know whether there was a call or anything else but a cell
phone tower made contact with a co pilot cell phone. Well after
the plane turned off course. Well, after the communications
were turned off, why do you think that information is just
coming out? Now, given how central it could be?
I don't know. It's it's amazing to me how much information is is
withheld by the Malaysian government and just kind of
released in dribs and drabs? It's almost like it's enough to
keep us from starving like giving a sip of water to a dying
man.
Yes, I love the analogy she's got here.
But you know, I would have thought that the first thing
they would have done is checked all the cell phone towers within
possible distance of that flight path to see if there was any
kind of connection activity for all the passengers not just for
the pilot. They clearly have everybody's cell phone numbers
are could have easily gotten easily. Really amazing to me
that we're only hearing this now. So her
job is to discredit the Malaysian government. And I'll
just go back to our original thesis that this is more about
the Strait of Malacca and about probably knocking the current
government out of power and bringing in the opposition.
Who's been what isn't an hour Ben forget his name. He's has
been a cis CIA asset all his life. Somewhere it looks like
someone's screwed up though, because this is gone off the
rails and they keep throwing this woman in to talk some crazy
stuff. And then we have Aaron, who's who's just, she's so
innocent and all of this. And she sits there with Richard
Quest. And by the way, you got to be sitting across from
Richard Quest and just thinking to you had a rope around your
balls and meth in your pocket. This is weird. You're a weird
guy.
Well hit pause there. All I can say is it's bizarre that they
would only leak this little thing. And US officials are just
confirming the one little thing since US officials no more
freezing tell. Are they not being told more? Something
stinks.
Yes. Something stinks. Aaron. Really? Something's
Richard Quest.
Yes, something stinks. I don't trust it. Sticks.
No, they're still keeping those ratings. I'm dead can't be up to
this. Oh, no,
no, I know. No. I actually I have the ratings in the show
notes. Because we keep tabs on this. They are still way up.
See, CNN is doing double. They still have not knocked Fox out
of the top spot. But they are close second in primetime, as
well except for Bill O'Reilly. But he his audience is really a
little it's he's got the older demos. But the CNN numbers are
almost triple what they were before the before the plane.
Before we do believe the plane got flown away, rebooted and
flew 360 degrees north. So it's clearly what people want and
Hello, we add a little capsize fairy to the mix. This is this
is fantastic. Yeah, this is big dough is beautiful.
So did you know that Matt tie AB has now gone to work for Pierre
Omidyar?
Yeah, we discussed it on the show. I believe. We haven't he
hasn't published anything yet. But he's got
a book out. No, he's not gonna. I think they bought him they
decided to get rid of him. Right? He was getting off the
scene. You know, this is gonna be like another run Whoa, who?
Yeah, he was very annoying. For two. Treble treble treble. Yeah,
he was on Democracy Now with a few things to say about his new
book. And when I went against, you know, HBs HSBC did You know
that you know what HSBC stands for?
Yes. The Hong Kong Singapore bank some Shanghai, Shanghai.
Yeah.
Or is this thing? It could be Singapore? Yeah. It's a it's a
bunch of trainers. Yeah, originally and then they move
their shop to Europe. Yeah, a bunch of, you know, so he was on
there bitching and moaning about one thing or another. I did have
one story. I have a bunch of clips of it, too. But there's
one story and this is
the HSBC, where one of the board members from that bank is now
running our FBI.
Exactly. That doesn't tell you something. We
don't forget these things easily. By the way. We like to
keep track of this stuff. All right. So I play this HSBC
story. Yeah, play
that. But in the case of a company like HSBC, which
admitted to laundering $850 million for a pair of Central
and South American drug cartels, somebody has to go to jail. In
that case, if you're going to put people in jail for having a
joint in their pocket, or for slinging dime bags on the
corner, and in a city street, you cannot let people who
laundered $800 million for the worst drug offenders in the
world walk
Wait, this can't be a parenthetical. Explain what
you're talking about. With HSBC. HSBC.
Again, this is this is one of the world's largest banks. It's
it's Europe's largest bank. And a few years ago, they got
caught, swept up for a variety of offences of money laundering
offences, but one of them involved admitting that they had
laundered $850 million for a pair for two drug cartels, one
in Mexico and one in South America. And including the
notorious Sinaloa drug cartel in Mexico that is suspected in
1000s of murders. And in that case, they paid a fine, they
paid a $1.9 billion fine. And some of the executives had to
defer their bonuses for a period of five years, not given them
up, defer them. But there were no individual consequences for
executives, nobody had to pull money out of their own pockets
for permanently. And nobody did a single day in jail in that
case. And that, to me, was an incredibly striking case. I was
I ran that very day to the courthouse here in New York. And
I asked around to the public defender's, you know, what's the
dumbest drug case you had today? And I found somebody who had
been thrown in Rikers for 47 days for having a joint in his
pocket. So that is that even illegal? No, in New York City,
actually, it's not illegal to carry a joint around in your
pocket. It was decriminalised way back in the late 70s. But
what part of the now pass stop and frisk what what they do is
they would stop you and then they would search you and force
you to empty your pockets. When you empty your pockets. Now it's
no longer concealed. And now we didn't know what's illegal
again. So they had in that year, they had 50,000 marijuana
arrests, even though marijuana. Marijuana was technically
decriminalised, at the time
swell, I think we should hire this guy to shut him up. He's
making way too much sense.
And here's the other story he told he was on for quite a
while, but just now the promise you're gonna have trouble
finding this clip. Because, as a touch typist, if you're off a
little bit on a foreign keyboard, you get this instead
of typing it says yay, only
whatever. Yeah, okay,
I got traffic, right?
You want me to play this? Yeah, play this
35 year old African American man, a bus driver. And I asked
him what he was there for. And he told me that he had been
arrested for quote unquote, obstructing pedestrian traffic.
And I thought he was kidding. I didn't know what that meant. And
I asked him to show me his summons. And he pulled out a
little, little piece of pink paper. And there it was, it was
written, you know, obstructing pedestrian traffic, which it
turns out, it meant that he was standing in front of his own
house at one o'clock in the morning. And the police just
didn't like the way he looked in and arrested him. And this is
part of the disorderly conduct statute here in New York. But
this is one of these offences that people get roped in for.
It's part of what a city councilman in another city
called an epidemic of false arrest. Basically, these new
stats based police strategies, the whole idea is to rope in as
many people as you can see how many of them have guns or
warrants and then basically throw back the innocent ones.
But the problem is they don't throw back everybody. They ended
up sweeping up a lot of innocent people and charging them with
really pointless crimes. There's a
great comic scene where that he goes to court and he has a hard
time convincing his public defender why he doesn't want to
pay a fine for standing in front of his home.
Yeah, and this is something that I encountered over and over and
over again, is that people who are charged with these minor
sort of harrassing offences, they, when the state discovers
that the case against them is not very good, they start
offering deals to the to the accused, and when people protest
that I'm not gonna plead because I didn't do anything wrong. They
keep offering better and better and better deals and no one can
understand why they won't want to they won't plead guilty.
You know, it's really sad that he's left Rolling Stone magazine
because that was was a good outlet for tidy stuff. And now
he's going to this this hokey hokey WordPress blog. Did you
see the post from the editor? John Cook?
The one where he says no white?
No, no, that was a job opening now. This is on this Glenn
Greenwald drive wrap down wrap. So they hired an editor which
Greenwald really needs and they hired John Cook, who I did he
come from? Gawker, right. And he does a on the 14th Passover
greetings from the editor. I guess he's a Jew. And he says,
Hello, my name is John Cook. And as three weeks ago, I became the
editor in chief of the intercept. Since then, we
haven't published much material on the site. And that's been on
purpose. Yeah, I'd like to take a moment to catch interested
readers up on where we are and what you can expect from us over
the coming weeks and months. Here we are. Yeah, well,
essentially, he says, You're not gonna get anything from us. He
says that the decision to begin publishing was based on
commitment to to continue the work of reporting blah, blah,
blah, which you know, because Greenwald, of course, spilled
the beans himself.
Before he said that, by the way, the post this was on April 14,
the post before that was April 4. So for 10 whole days with
this huge staff. Yeah, they put it they couldn't even post
anything. No.
And at this point, this outfit is rudderless. And if you read
the comments, people are just incensed because, you know,
Edward Snowden if you believe everything Glenn Greenwald grim
rah rah himself has said, literally chose these the chosen
ones of him and Laura, and guess Barton, but now him and Laura to
publish this information. And now they're just like taking
their time and this information doesn't belong to Glenn
Greenwald, or Laura Poitras, it's America's information, it's
also my information. And so now that just well, you know, where,
until we have completed the work of getting staffed up and
conceptually prepared, what
do they need?
Let me let me let me read this to you. Until we have completed
the work of getting staffed up and conceptually prepared for
the launch of a full bore news operation that will be producing
a steady stream of shit kicking stories comma, the intercept
will be narrowly focusing on one thing and one thing only
reporting out stories from the NSA archive as quickly and
responsibly as is practicable but you haven't really done that
for a month at least. They need to staff up to get shit kicking
stories
is a disaster.
It Yes, it is a thank you. It is a disaster not just a commercial
disaster. But you know, it's so obvious. It is so obvious that
you said this from day one. They're hiring these people to
shut them up to make them completely irrelevant. And oh
yeah, let's just slow down everything to a trickle while
we're at it while we staffing up. She can get to like a whole
video with his staff. Let's see staff how many people staff do
we have? One, two, John Cook Ryan, Deborah
1-234-567-8910 1112 1314 1516. And these are just the star
names. They've got have interns and all kinds of stuff. Even got
a black guy. Andrew Gerald Jones. Who's he? Yeah. Andrew
Jones is a Brooklyn based journalist and commentator
covering Cultural Affairs civil rights. His work has been
published at MSNBC Talking Points Memo, the Ross story and
the cryo. He's also made media appearances on RT network and
Huffington Post's HuffPost Live
and this isn't the whole staff because it's got everybody he's
gonna be doing a
lot of work this Andruw Jones they're gonna make him work. I
can tell you right like guy I've got Thanks. Thanks, John.
Yes, I'm not saying it as opposed to make this for one guy
work.
I couldn't he just No, he's a racist operation. The
guy couldn't I can't find it anymore. I luckily save paid
jazz and I'll bring it up on the next show. No, no, we have no
whites. No,
no men. No more man. No more whites. Whites. Yeah. Even
though
you know he's got and somebody called me on. It says because
he's trying to get diversity. Somebody on Twitter.
Oh, yeah, that's what we need diversity. Since the technology
reporting world is so poor, by the way, you are expected on
twit and you didn't.
I never got a note and I said so. shad never sent me a note. I
always confirm. They don't have a confirmation for me.
It was just funny. I literally asked you after the show on
Sunday Hey, you know, but you know and I and sometimes I can
hear the way you say stuff you can't you gotta give earlier to
fool me. I think you knew that there was some that they might
want you but you hadn't confirmed because you didn't
feel like it.
I never got a note to confirm. It doesn't matter. If I got a
note and I didn't confirm that's one thing, but I never got a
note to confirm. I just
love hearing and Devorah is late. That's my favourite. I'm
like,
Well, next time I'm on the show, they're going to hear about it.
Okay, a couple things. First of all, the heart we were talking
about the the heart bleed logo. This apparently was created the
logo was created. The branding was done by that that wacky
security company code mountain Codenomicon. They're the ones
that created it. Okay, one of their own. Internal designers is
well, Lina SNI. Date to logo gal, which I think she kind of
stole from Danger Mouse. If you look at the I'd have to I'd
called plagiarism actually. No, let me take a look. Yeah, Danger
Mouse has not as the same outline of heart. So I'd say you
know bullcrap. But also, for them to brand this so quickly.
It's just the future. This is the future of bugs. They're all
going to have a brand. They're all gonna have a web page.
They're all gonna have a logo. And there's all reasoning behind
it. Oh,
yeah, date. There's a logo on Danger Mouse if you go to Danger
Mouse site.com. It says roam. And it's the same thing. It's
not even close to be drips right in front of you. And it's got
the same sub drip.
So they stole it from Danger Mouse. Yeah, he says Danger
Mouse's. And of course, that whole outfit is sketchy to start
with that they can conveniently and coincidentally discovered
the same bug on the same day as the CIA and Google researcher.
Yeah, yeah, coincidence.
Then, this was weird, this bug that I apparently incorrectly
said of course, you can track this. I got a barrage of people
saying Nope. This is untrackable leaves, no log notes. No
nothing. So I'm interested how Canadian police were able to
arrest this kid. I'm sorry, 19 year old man and the theft of
900 Canadian taxpayers data sheets, which was made
vulnerable by the Heartbleed bug. If they can't track it. How
do they find him? You're asking me no. Well, because something
stinks with this.
Yeah, yeah. Well, most of these things stink. That's the
problem. Talking about stuff that stinks. So above here,
Mimi's moaning and groaning about the vaxxers. They're
called vaxxers. And everyone complains about the anti
vaccine. Vaccine people are called vaxxers. Yeah. And so she
gets a lot of grief. And I say the thing to say to these people
tell her you know, if you get into an argument with one of
them once it's vaccines
for standpoint, is it Why does she do what's the problem with
that? Is she for against what's what's the given position for
good
vaccines? That makes sense, obviously, with the other ones
are bullcrap. Right? And she's, and I said, just make sure to
tell him that these guys are all exempt from any kind of lawsuit.
Why is that? And once they became exempted putting crap in
these value, who knows what's in there, they don't care. There's
no reason for quality control, which is my argument again,
about using gamma radiation to make food safe. Because you'll
be eating dog shit. Literally. Yeah. Alright, it's gamer Ada,
who gives a crap. So meanwhile, I run into this. There's a bunch
of I didn't only got one clip, but I've been running into this
as a public relations campaign going on right now. By the
because she was listening to talk radio, where she got irked
about was the people saying, well, the only way to fix this
is have a law. Let's have a law that requires everybody to be
vaccinated, so they can't complain. So there's a
propaganda campaign going on as we speak, to promote vaccination
and then promote a law. So you can compound it on the door
until you get to take the shot ticked HPV shot is there. Is
there a clip for this? I do have a clip I have one of the
examples of propaganda from network television, ABC. And
this is the chicken pox propaganda piece that was just
scripted to death.
That's majority of doctors agree that vaccinating children
against certain illnesses is the best way to protect them. But
there are still a number of parents who refuse vaccinations
for their kids. And now there are some going as far as buying
chicken pox lollipops as a sort of Natural vaccination and
throwing the so called pox parties. Joining us now to
discuss the dangers of all this is paediatrician and contributor
to babycenter.com. Dr. Alana Levine, Dr. Levine, thank you so
much for joining us. I can't believe that parents are doing
this. What is the thinking behind having your child live?
Chicken Pox lollipop.
I know it sounds crazy to me too. I mean, in old school, in
the old school pre vaccine era, people used to throw chicken pox
parties. If one person in the community had the chickenpox
they knew that everybody was going to eventually get it. So
why not get it at a control time when a family was ready for it.
Let all the siblings in the family get it at the same time
and get it out of the house. That made a little bit more
sense. But now that we have a vaccine, it safe and effective
against preventing chickenpox and it's a lie.
Yeah, I was one of those kids raised in the pre chickenpox
vaccination era. I never heard of such a thing. I didn't ever
heard of it either. either. It's bull crap. She made this up. I
don't see it in the literature. I don't never heard of it
myself. I didn't experience you
mean you mean of the chickenpox parties? Yeah.
When you're a kid. Oh, no, no, this
is this happened. This was a new story maybe two or three years
ago. And it's something new I'd never heard of it is not that
now they're back projecting. This is the gold thing is in the
mindset of the American public current thinking. But the fact
is, it's a lie. There's nothing you won't read about it in a
novel. You won't find an old news story about it. I was
there. I never had chickenpox vaccine and I remember doing
these parties. You got chickenpox. When you got
chickenpox, I
remember parties where we like spun the bottle. Yes,
we did that to fire we didn't do chickenpox party. So this is
this is a lie to me. That if glitter finish
fate, because what people don't realise is it's not just a mild
disease and all children, some some children get the pox, they
itch. They have some fever. They miss a couple of days of school
and then they're okay. But in the pre vaccine era, somewhere
between 100 and 150 children died each year of the
chickenpox. Can you imagine being?
Really do we have
a vaccine? 40,000 people die each year? Yeah. So 100 kids
really are the
kids. John? Come on now. Children? Yeah, I mean, there's
only one thing we have to do is pick up the children. That's how
you sell something who
willingly exposes their child to that
type of situation. And that's what these chicken pox lollipops
are. Right? Right. So
the idea behind them and thankfully those well,
who is this woman where she from again,
she is some 20 Something chick from some hospital, she's a
doctor,
you gotta we will go back and listen to minute this. They
always say for cheese from blah, blah, blah. And you know, and
before you know it, it's like one of these. It's a nonprofit,
I'm sure.
Well, it could be it could be but you'll go back and get
it taken down. But the idea behind them was if there was a
child who had the chickenpox he or she would lick this lollipop
and then you could sort of have like a cyber chickenpox party
where you could distribute these lollipops around
a cyber chicken pox
party. Yeah, yeah. Hey, all right, kids on the count of
three licked the lolly, they probably
wouldn't have been very effective anyway. But the point
is, is that why would a parent want to do this expose their
child to germs from a stranger? Aren't
there some also serious dangers involved?
is dangerous. You don't
know what's on those lollipops?
That could be sugar on there something food colouring know
who's
sending them. I certainly wouldn't as a parent ever allow
my child. I mean, I wouldn't allow my child to have open
Halloween candy. Why would I allow them to have a lollipop
that was sent from a stranger?
Alright, let's talk about the actual chickenpox vaccine. Is it
an effective vaccine?
It is an effective vaccine and actually roughly nine and a 10
children who received both doses of the vaccine
opposes.
Yeah, because it's so effective. You have to get a booster you
see. People that you know, the candy added the campaign to
belittle people who question this stuff. And who of course,
like you and I have the knowledge that all
pharmaceutical companies are immune from prosecution for
vaccinations that all 2010 financials showed vaccinations
as the big bonanza for these companies. And there's a lot in
there. The people get shouted down when you say hey, you know,
maybe this is a little crazy what's going on to not one, but
two, and I'm sure each is 150 bucks recommended
schedule will be immune to the chickenpox and actually nearly
100% of those children will be protected from having severe
disease. So even if you do get a few pox, generally it's fewer
than 50 and it's a really mild case. Wait a minute,
does this thing work or not? Oh,
apparently not.
You got it. You get 50 pox. Well, yeah, you
know JC buzzkill June you got the chickenpox when he was about
11 isn't like then he had 14 pox. It was like ridiculously
mild. And he got it naturally, but you're gonna get 50 pox if
you take the shot. Man, this
is great. What are the potential risks associated with the
inoculation?
Well, the most common side effects are some mild soreness
or redness at the site of the injection. Sometimes you can get
a low grade fever. You can also get a little bit of a rash but
these are really minor things when you compare them to the
risks of the chickenpox
I had chickenpox as a kid, there was no vaccine for it. Do
parents need all parents need to vaccinate their kids for
chickenpox? What about parents? Oh, let me guess. Yeah, decide
not to?
Well, my recommendation is for all of my patients and for all
children really to be vaccinated against chickenpox. There are
some children who are too sick or for some reason cannot get
the chickenpox vaccine. And I feel that it's a public health
responsibility to protect these children as well. So I recommend
that universal chickenpox vaccine for anyone who's
eligible, they're dangerous
to the whole population for a few parents that decide to
abstain.
That's exactly right. And if you have a pregnant woman in a
grocery store, who's not immune and you bring your child with
you to the grocery store, and your child has a chickenpox,
well then you've now just affected this mother and her
unborn child
and your child has just killed a you are a little baby, an unborn
child, some
really important considerations. Dr. Ilana Levine thank you so
much.
It's a pleasure. I gotta tell you, have you seen any of these
vaccination schedules for the for the kids these days? Oh,
they're
just like a laundry list.
Yeah, and it's, you know, oh, you're three months you you get
all this and you know, it's your mumps rubella?
No believable hunting these lists starting with a Euston be
just you know, about five really bad things. diptheria, okay,
I'll take that shot. But yeah, now it's just, it's just I got
everything under the sun and HPVs thrown in there too, all
the time.
Two shots for HPV number, then the thing that is upsetting is
when you whenever you say anything about this, you're
shouted down, and you there was an RNA vaccine,
you wanted those? You don't believe in vaccines?
I read this. Where was this? There was a, I think was the New
York Times I'm trying to find it now. It says that the smarter
people are more trusting. And this is very interesting from
the Obama bot perspective. That the higher your IQ, the more
likely you are to trust what the what the government has to tell
you.
Where does this come from? Yeah, I'm
looking. I'm trying to find it right now.
That's a beauty thing. It
was New York Times. Um, I know. It
could be bullshit to me could could be a propaganda thing
where you say, Okay, let's tell all the smart people that you're
if somebody's on Obama, but let's tell them they're smart.
You're smart to believe the government. Let me see like the
idea of telling people they're smart for believing the
government.
And I think just the word smart by itself is a really good one.
When you tell Smarty view, yeah, yeah, I remember. We used to
have a woman on our Heritage's. Oh, maybe it wasn't the New York
Times. Let me see. What is it the Atlantic? I'm sorry, that
doesn't quite cut it does it? Is the Atlantic any good?
Well, it's an intellectual. This a left. It's a lefty operation.
See
what it says here? It's a real study from Noah Carl and
Francesco biliary at the University of Oxford. They
analysed data from the General Social Survey, a nationally
representative US public opinion survey administered every one to
two years results. Both vocabulary and question
comprehension were positively correlated with generalised
trust. Those with the highest vocab scores were 34% more
likely to trust others and those with the lowest scores, and
someone who had a good perceived understanding of the survey
questions was 11% more likely to trust others than someone with a
perceived poor understanding. So headline, study smarter people
are more trusting. And there you go. Well, it makes a lot of
sense. But when you actually look into it, and you know, and
it's, I don't know if it's like the professor, you know, the
professor, he tweeted a thing or put on Facebook and what's this
link to? This? I think I showed it to you once after the show is
like, does Do vaccines cause autism.com or something like
that? Yeah. And then it goes through a page that you know,
they fucking don't use stupid moron or something like that.
Oh, yeah. Right. That's just lame. Yeah, but it's this kind
of behaviour that And of course these are these are people who
are childless by choice which makes it even that more really
disgusting because when you have a child and you have to fight
your school not letting your kids in because they don't have
their vaccinations just sports club, the swimming pool, you
know any of this stuff. And then you look at the list it's it's
crazy. If I was a doctor, and we should have doctors that do
stuff, like they do for the medical marijuana, like yeah,
oh, yeah, you got a shot. Yeah, I'll sign off on that. Yeah, I
gave it to him. Now polio Sure. what else what else is
necessary? Dr. Devorah lips theory and theory. What is dip
theory? That's some pooping some horrible disease. Yes.
I would say I think the whooping cough thing is probably a plus
Pertussis is that what that pertussis Yeah, pertussis,
measles, mumps. Mumps may be enough, but then again, I'm not
sexually convinced to that. But mumps is bad if you get as an
adult so maybe you should get the shot. chickenpox you know,
you know, two shots? That doesn't make sense?
Well, this there is a full on assault on children in general.
And who is who was responsible or who is who you know what your
role as a parent is? This was a this was a piece of tetanus is
also. Yeah, but you can you can get tetanus. You don't want to
get tetanus. No. So if you step on a rusty nail or something.
Well, kids are always fooling around here. New York, New York
Times Keith Robinson, Angel L. Harris. parental involvement is
overrated. Now, this New York Times I love these guys. Do you
know these guys?
No, I'm just saying these people. Yeah. They're probably
childless to
that. I don't know. But here it is. Most people ask for the
parental involvement benefits children academically would say
of course it does. But evidence from our research suggests
otherwise. In fact, most forms of parental involvement like
observing a child's class, contacting a school about a
child's behaviour, helping to decide a child's high school
courses, or helping a child with homework do not improve student
achievement. In some cases, they actually hinder it.
This is the thing that's what I've noticed. This is a meme
that's cropping up in the common core argument. And that people
are teaching Common Core they you know, the kids come home and
said, Dad, I can't figure out what is this? Why don't I just
add two plus three? To get five you know, as five I can do it on
my fingers. I got five fingers 12123 Odds five. Why do I use
this line? I gotta put circles around the numbers. What is all
this in the game? Oh, geez. Okay. And just so the parents
start to teach them, you know, old fashioned arithmetic. And
they go back to school, and they're, they're good at it, but
they can't do the Josiane get the answer. You got 111 plus 40.
And they immediately know this 151. And they have to show it
the way they did show it with a bunch of bullcrap. And then he
said he's welcome. You didn't show you just put 151 Yeah,
because that's what it is. Well, you got to show it. Where'd you
get this idea? My dad taught me. Oh, no,
no, no, no. And this brings us to Project Lead the Way No, yes,
John. Project Lead the Way p ltw.org. Another fine nonprofit
organisation who brought in $13 million in the past year have a
total kitty of about $23 million dollars. And this Project Lead
the way they train teachers to lead the way in the Common Core
with STEM and helping to make everything just right for our
children. And I have a couple of clips here from Vince Bertram.
Vince Bertram doc I should I'm sorry, Dr. Vince Bertram, since
his appointment in June 2011 Project Lead the Way has
experienced record programme growth of over 50% and
flourished to serve the nation in more than 5000 schools
reaching nearly 600,000 students annually. Under his leadership,
more than 10,000 pl TW teachers have been trained sponsor and
partner support of PLT W has increased now. I pulled these
the nine the form 990 For this outfit. I hate nonprofits. It's
gotten so bad where I don't even want to give money to if you're
a nonprofit. Screw you. I hate you. So their total what are
they have end of year $23 million. Let's see what this
nonprofit let's just look at the salaries for a moment. Oh, yeah.
Okay. The chairman. I'm sorry. Vince Bertram, he's the CEO. His
annual salary is 350 $5,000 a nonprofit organisation,
right plus expenses. Oh, of course.
The CFO 185 The CEO Oh 206 The chief programme officer, but
what are you doing? Okay. 188 chief development officer, what
are you doing? 198 chief engagement officer? Are you
getting people engaged? 155 This is a the way I see it is a bribe
organisation. If you look at what they've done with their
money, what they do is they just give grants to all of these
institutions. So it's all about $10,000. So here's the Abington
Heights School District $10,000, Asus Zavier educational system
in Appleton, Wisconsin $10,000. And then we have the Anoka
Hennepin School District in Minnesota $166,000. They must
have been a tough one to convince to get on the Common
Core, or whatever it is, you're peddling you creeps. I'm telling
let's listen to Vince, and we'll find
out exactly what he is doing project, by the way is a mission
driven organisation. It's a mission.
It's a mission driven, mission driven organisation,
yes, focused on preparing students for this global
economy,
preparing them for the global economy. By the way,
when you look at the board of directors, it's all corporate
guys.
Don't worry, we're getting to that. The
statistics we heard the outset of this committee meeting can be
described as nothing else. Other than their crisis
crisis. We have a crisis, ladies and gentlemen, a crisis because
we need more slaves for our technology companies. We don't
want leaders. We don't want writers. We don't want
musicians. We don't want poets. Now we need slaves
in America, in America, and it's going to require all of us
working together to solve it. Yes, we're the leading provider
of STEM education for middle and high schools across the country.
That's right. They are a leading provider. We are in all 50
states, including the District of Columbia. And in 2013, we
will be in over 5000 middle and high schools with over 500,000
students engaged in our programme. In 2014, we will
introduce an elementary school programme as well. Well get them
while they're young provide a K 12 solution, as well as
introduction to computer science and software engineering.
Oh, we need a K 12 solution. John, this guy walked right out
of a VC meeting. Yes, we need a K 12 solution to get to kids to
learn
how to programme along with our engineering and biomedical
science programme is a biomedical science. So thinking
about Project Lead the Way is one is it scalable? No, it's
scalable.
Yes. Oh, fantastic. We start with
a decision just getting into you a lot in
upstate New York and being in 12 schools. So today we're in over
5000 5000
Because it scales so well. And with
last year over 20% growth. We're also for all students were in
all school types from Urban Suburban, public public charter
schools, private parochial, small and large schools rural,
and as we do at all well as low income and affiliated schools.
Uh huh. We're also a sustainable organisation,
this sustainable organism, their green,
one that is built on strength and operational excellence, so
that we can continue to advance this important mission across
our nation.
Oh, my goodness, I'm hard just thinking about it.
But our programme is built on three key pillars. One is
providing world class curriculum. Yes, that is
engaging for students. And standards based is aligned with
industry. Yes. And post secondary expectations
aligned with industry and post secondary expectations. What
does that mean, John?
Wow. Well, that B means what it means it means that they're
they're all in bed with the industry and they're producing
what you said earlier slaves
are what is post secondary expectation?
Well, that means you expect to go to college. Oh, okay.
Well, okay, that is engaging for students. And standards based is
to align with industry and post secondary expectations. It's
project activity based. Most importantly, we teach kids how
to think critically how to problem solve, and how to
collaborate, the type of skills required in the workplace. So
think critically, as of course, means that no religion, you got
to think critically about stuff like that now. Now, let's talk
about these great partnerships because Project Lead the Way not
only are they scalable, sustainable, and providing world
class educational standards based tools and leadership,
secondary based into the workplace slaves. They have got
partners,
no one is going to stop have this problem alone? Uh huh.
We need partners.
And it's not going to be just in K 12 education or higher
education. But it's a seamless pipeline.
A pipeline is what we need. We needed a pipeline with the
slaves come out of the uterus. And then we're right there,
putting them in the pipeline pushing them through to our
partners.
So for us some examples such in California, where next ed in
Sacramento, is really moving toward a statewide
implementation of projects. The way we've grown from five
schools and mid 2000s. Now are 400 schools. But it's it's
because knowing next Ed's vision, but also companies like
Intel, who's helping grow and sustain programmes in California
across the nation. Thank you. Partner in Chevron has invested
millions of dollars in Project ways schools have great provide
this kind of opportunity for students for the pipeline
companies like Autodesk Autodesk. The same time we have
companies like Toyota Toyota choosing Project Lead the Way
recruiting our students into their advanced manufacturing
technician programme, the Advanced Manufacturing
technician programme. Yeah. assembly line, screw on bolt,
remove new bolt screw on bolt remove.
We had our first cohort that graduate in their AMT programme
in Georgetown, Kentucky last May. And all of our students did
exceptionally well and now have opportunities to work for
Toyota. Hey, this Yeah, going out into all their North
American facilities recruiting pow students into an advanced
manufacturing technician programme, the
advanced manual. Let's just Let's just google this for a
second. Hold on. Let's this is do this
Toyota manufacturing technician has advanced This is a button on
a machine manufacturing
technician. Let's just see. I have not Googled this, but here
we go. The AMT, the Toyota advanced manufacturing
technician programme. Let's see what is the AMT programme
includes a two year degree in computer integrated
manufacturing robotics. Students earn a wage while attending
college and gain priceless work experience with a global
manufacturing leader. Oh my goodness. This is great
students, graduates hired by Toyota have the potential to
earn as much as $64,000 yearly plus excellent benefits.
The potential
Yeah, here's a there's a 32nd clip here that they have what is
this?
Indiana is the most manufacturing intensive state
per capita in the nation. It's high growth and high tech.
But there's a skills gap. Indiana companies need skilled
programmers have automated systems.
You literally see some kids with a drill. You'll be on the
assembly line. That's what
that will allow our students to earn associate degrees and for
some to go on to baccalaureate degrees, so you might actually
get a real degree. Okay. We also enjoy great support from the
Aerospace Industries Association is one programme that is
endorsed by a IA but it's companies like Boeing that
provide great support across the nation and Rolls Royce Rolls
Royce partner, Lockheed Martin, Lockheed companies are
absolutely committed to this work.
Yeah. To slaves. This is a
I mean, this is not an unusual thing historically. But
essentially what they're doing is they're they're taking the
regular school educational system and turning it into
technical education, which is tech education, which used to be
a vocational vocational school. Yeah, they're essentially making
everyone does. So in other words, you're not you're going
to be uneducated, largely. And but you're going to be good,
you'll be able to do some of these things that will give you
a job and Toyota but of course, you won't learn any liberal
stuff that would make you want to make a union there because
there's no non unionised in a free, which is good or bad.
Whatever the point is, is that you're just going to be some
sort of a dummy with a vocational education and you'll
be working, you'll make a job. This is not a bad thing, but it
seems as though they're taking and trying to make everybody
into this, like you said, No artists, yeah, this,
this is the problem as musicians, but the setup is so
large, if you really step back, and I think we're uniquely
qualified to be able to do that. If you step back and you look at
the Common Core State Standards, which are driving the stem,
really driving it very hard. And there's this then you bring out
these OECD bullcrap numbers that show Oh, we suck so bad, China's
kicking our ass and it really turns out it's like a one
percentage point difference, but they make the graph that skewed
the graph. And by the way, everybody's country looks stupid
in these results. Tip China and then you have the military
industrial Educational Complex, literally working with the
government. handing out student loans which no one can repay
unless, oh, I don't know, maybe you're in the AMT Toyota
assembly line programme. Because you know, when you get your
first paycheck, that's when you start paying back your loan.
It's a slave system. And I don't mind if people want to put their
children into that, that's fine. We certainly need to them. Yeah,
we certainly, but to say I'm gonna shove it down everybody's
throat to say we're going to have a skills gap. What because
everyone wants to be what a lawyer is? I mean, what is it
exactly?
Why lawyers alike? Why
don't we just stop pretending that we all need to go to
college that it would be much easier?
Well, it's nice to get them at least somewhat into college. So
you can gouge them with that those student loans. But yeah,
then they're stuck or slaves reverb, god knows how long
it is kind of the definition of enslavement? Well, you said this
is the only way you can go. And the only way you can go is you
have to follow a Project Lead the Way and then lead the way
lead you right into a programme where you you're going to have
to pay for this one way or the other. It's, it's okay. I mean,
if that's what we all agree on.
But is that this stuff? Just this is being snuck in the back
door? Well, I don't I don't understand is using common core
to be the shoehorn and they don't want anybody talking to
kids. I mean, there's a lot of negative things about this. I
can't teach your kid anything yourself, you know, give it you
give the kid to the state, let the state determine. They end up
in here. We believe this kid should be working for Toyota,
and then have a get talking. Yeah, and have
a consistent programme to make homeschooling look like
religious nut jobs.
Yeah. Which by the way, have been a homeschooler. We did a
lot of research. And the number of religious nut jobs is really
a minority. The homeschooling world is about a quarter
Christians, a quarter Muslims, a quarter Jews and a quarter
secular. And it's pretty evenly balanced. And they all work
together. Well. I mean, it's just it works fine. Isn't that
it's not a bad system at all. But the Christian group is the
one that they keep focusing on. Because, you know, some of them
make a lot of noise or whatever. Nobody ever talks about the
other ones? No. All right. Well, I do have a kind of a corny a
kind of an interesting clip. We gotta
get out of here, man. What are we doing? This
is way too long. One more thing to do. All right. Yeah, I know,
we've gone over time. I want to notch to the affiliates. We're
going over time going over time on our time.
That's right, you will the your local news will be starting
later, because of the length of this broadcast. And it's all
Ellen's fault, because you had to do another one of those
selfies.
Exactly. So I'm gonna look into this we'll talk about on the
show after next. And this is Cafe impact, I want you to tell
me what you think,
okay, here we go.
Touch and how you engage with the person that you are trying
to, quote unquote, transform their life is huge.
Our social entrepreneurs are people who have been on the
frontlines of social change. I've learned so much from
talking with them. This is Cafe impact. And I'm Jonathan Lewis.
Be prepared to grow yourself. Don't get into this business
thinking that you know everything, and that you are
coming to help someone else transform their lives into what
being you, are you really someone that they want to
transform into, you have to be prepared to grow and transform
yourself. If you want to get into the game of transformation.
It's kind of like the oxygen mask thing, like in a plane
where they say put your own oxygen mask on before you help
others that are sitting next to you.
I have a lot of people who come to me who say, Oh, I want to
work for you. And their social skills are really not yet there.
And it's not because they're not good and wonderful people but
it's because they haven't done a lot of personal work on like,
What
do I love? What am I good at? Who am I?
I mean, I spend a lot of time
I might shoot myself before we get to the end. What exactly is
going on here?
I was going to ask you I was gonna actually premise this was
I want to see how much of this you can take.
Well, I got through one minute and six seconds bots. This
is an operation called Cat. It's a bunch of series of interviews
on Cafe impact. We have to you can look it up later. Because
we're finishing this show. And it is about this whole thing.
This all fits in with everything we've been talking about, which
is this personal transformation. You've got to change the way you
are. We were to a holes apparently, who are not into any
of this stuff. And we're very sceptical and this is not a good
thing to be. And it's a good thing. I mean, I think that our
listeners find it entertaining, but it but apparently we
shouldn't be we shouldn't be this way at all. And we'll talk
about this more after.
Let me listen more here. And as you
probably know, Jonathan, I go on 10 day silent retreats. I mean,
I'm somebody who spends a lot of time just try a 10
day silent retreat. Read. Yeah, a lot of them by the way I take
that can I have a 10 day silent retreat really seriously, that
would be nice
understand my place in the world and how I want my work to impact
people
puts an example of a social skill that you find typically
lacking
self awareness about how you impact other people. For
example,
you may be required, let's say to take care of a young boy that
has autism, you start realising that your inability to get them
to do what you think is your proper caregiving thing has been
screwed up because you're ticked off about something. Oh, man.
Nah.
Why are you Is this what you watch? You're You're a thrill
seeker, my friend. You are I mean, that's not I can't listen
to talk more about this in the future shows. Yeah, I'm Yes.
Okay.
I mean, while the FBI plans have a 52 million photos in its
national recognition database by next year,
hmm, yeah. Wear glasses.
And a hat. Or
that schnoz thing with the moustache. Yeah, exactly.
Alright, everybody. So we have a special clip show brought to you
by Ramsey Kane on Sunday that will be published around the
regular time. So don't go looking for it beforehand. Now,
y'all. And that'll give everyone an opportunity to catch up. And
any donations. All donations that came in for Sunday show
will be discussed on Thursday show. When we'll all be back.
It's a big one Hitler birthday day off celebration where your
Toyota is 25% off. Coming to you from FEMA Region six here in the
capital of the drone star states. In the morning,
everybody. I'm Adam curry.
I believe I'm still in FEMA Region nine no matter where I
go. Anyway, I hope everyone pay their taxes. I think I said that
already. I'm John C. Dvorak. We'll be back
with our special clips show on Sunday. And a brand new live
show on Thursday right here on no agenda
he pulls a knife, you pull a gun, he sends one of yours to
the hospital. You say I'm gonna history. I'm Joe Biden. And
