It was disgusting. I had to turn the show off. Adam curry, John
C. Dvorak.
July 31 2014 It's time for your Gitmo nation media assassination
episode 639. This is no agenda, owning all followers off the
island here from the South Austin safehouse. And finger
region six in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley, I haven't moved an inch
I'm John C. Dvorak scale.
Also not a rule follower, so you don't have to worry about it.
I don't rule follow you do not follow that mean I do if there's
a cop holding the baton over my head about the beat me.
But you're in general, you're not just a rule follower. You
know, like some rules,
those rules are idiots. That's the first error.
So if the rule is that we have to do it, then I'll do it.
There's lots of people who are rule followers. Let me give you
some examples. Let me give you although she doesn't say it
explicitly that way, this is Christine Lagarde, one of the
most powerful people and certainly women and the
woman which is probably the second most powerful woman in
the world. Yes.
To hear about these matters today. Please join me in giving
a warm National Press Club, Managing Director of the IMF.
Christine Lagarde. Yeah, she comes. She comes here she comes
everybody.
Thank you so much. Merci beaucoup. As you can tell i i do
as I'm told.
That's right. That's right. And who else follows rules? I'm a
rule follower. Right? What do you do? Are you a rule follower?
Yes, of course. As long as you've set the stage, you're
just trying
to get me banned from the show.
benched bench in the morning there John. How you doing? No,
no, don't no, no. This was just a slight in the morning was not
it was not a kick in the in the horse. Just no, it's just a
slight little How you doing? How you doing? Everybody? Abdullah?
Okay, dude. Okay, dude. Okay, I
wanted to say something. Because it was funny. Just before we
started, viewer looking for some pieces, you have a way of
managing the show. And we have, we actually have an editorial
system, which is comprised of show notes and an articles that
are stored in full text off line and moving as we built this
carefully over many, many years, the digital part, completely
program developed by Dave Jones. And you often send me stuff to
put in there and all our clips, everything stored that you have
posted notes, which unfortunately, we can't really
incorporate into the system.
I also have the back back of envelopes. But I usually leave
those downstairs. So I did that again.
I'm checking out the chat room. I'm doing the pre stream, and
someone comes in and says, Hey, does anyone know when the guy's
talked about Senate Bill 2277. And I took this opportunity I'd
like you to do with me, John. I'm doing it at the beginning of
the show. So people understand how to utilize your no agenda.
This is your show. And it's all there. And I want you to see how
it works. You ready?
No. Yeah, we'll be ready in a second. Do you? I wish this was
just the process of getting my email. So I had the so I had it
at the ready. Okay, well, do you have a web browser? I need a web
browser. Yes.
I'm looking at a web browser now. Which one? Is it? Firefox
Very
good. Let's go to search not any show. notes.com
any better than anything else? searched
out any showings to come to brand new search.na show
notes.com You got it up there. You gotta
Yeah, I'm typing it in. I have to stand to get there. And I
want you I'm sitting I'm looking at
it now type in the text field there for the search. 2277.
Okay. All right. And hit search or hit return. And what do you
get?
Loading? Data s 2277. Russian aggression Prevention Act of
2014. And
what does it say there in brackets is introduced on the
left on the left and the low 618. Right. And if you click on
that link, you'll see there's a full text of the the actual,
actual document but 618 is the episode we discussed it on. Yes,
exactly. Now, if you go to no agenda player.com There's not
now you're gonna have some fun. Okay, now you're really
gonna know I'm having a ball. Alright. I know.
I know. You're enjoying it. Okay, so go to a no agenda.
player.com Yeah. And you want to go to the archive,
and get art and everything's cute. Very nice. Much better
than before. Right. So you want to Yeah, go to the art. I type
in 618.
Well, if you could do that, you could do that. I didn't do
that that way. But yeah, search for 618 return no results.
So what I did is I went to archive it's It's still BM.
We're not Facebook and we're doing our best. Yeah. Okay, so
Okay, agenda. I got to play along with you here. No agenda
player.com. Okay, and under archive there you see, I'll just
tell you where it is. It's May. Okay, so
this live well, how am I gonna know that? Well, it's numbered.
Okay, so you see, it goes
to the bottom, it goes to six mg, I'm gonna bet you about it.
Okay, we'll fix it. And then the bottom is 631. So Jesus only,
like five shows on this page. Fix that. So I got to kind of
guess where it might be? Well, let me try me. It's me.
I'm sorry. Could have been better?
Is the Clooney clip 60. Okay, I found it and what do you see
long says, but if I was looking for show 202 I bet it would take
me a long time.
So 618. And there we have a link that says I think it's the fifth
from the top Russian aggression Prevention Act of 2014. Right.
So I click on that, click on that. I'm clicking on it here.
And then you click on
that front page. And this let the American does background go
along with these. So that
is the show playing at the moment where we start talking
about the Russian aggression, prevention, over promise. Turned
down, but I don't want it playing but
turn it down of Senate Bill two to seven, seven. There you go.
There it is. It works.
Yeah, well, the here's the problem with this way. I see. It
may not be able to. It auto plays.
Well, yes. It's supposed to. It's supposed to go straight to
one hour, 26 minutes and 40 seconds. I
don't know what you did. It started right at the beginning.
Okay, it
did for me, it worked for me.
Well, it didn't work for me down,
just saying. And it actually has a
autoplay and I couldn't stop it to go click to someone else.
Well, do you Oh, I'm sorry. Well, there you go.
There's got to be sorry, if not defense, it's just not. It's
fantastic work from his way. It's been fine. It works for
you. It always is always funny how the developer always worked
for the developer to work for other people. They never do
anything to fix the problems because it never works for
anybody else.
Well, no, not this will be fixed. Now. I
had no idea because of a buffer could have been for a lot of
reasons. Thank you for beta testing with us and beta test.
It didn't work right. But I have to say that it has the potential
as the elements. Yeah. This
and what I like is that it also you'll see down the left has
little short cut link to that actual spot in the file if it
had actually worked. You know, we need to get a hold of our
dude's name to actually interact
directly with people in the IT arena. There was somebody whose
name was Kenny remember his last name? I think his first name may
have been been
a guy named Ben and dude named Ben may know who I am. I'm a
dude playing the pill disguised as another do you do to do no
would do. And now you
have to add to that little that little medley is dude looks like
a lady. I don't
have that handy. Dude looks like a lady. Yeah. No, no, don't have
that. The only thing I always have handy is Bingo. Boom.
All right, okay. Let's get this going. You sent out you sent out
a newsletter and I found this to be very for was interested, the
timing of events that took place was very interesting of your
newsletter, which I will point out to people you spend a
considerable amount of time constructing is not just
something that you say, Oh, I'm just gonna throw this together.
I mean, there's
I have done that
yet. But I'm going to guess even outside of writing the actual
newsletter, just the whole process has got to take you at
least an hour and a half.
That's probably right. Maybe longer. Yeah, sometimes a couple
hours,
only for to be popped into the spam folder. Right?
result, or it takes it depends. It takes rounding and maybe a
half hour to an hour to write and he has to be edited by
to send it to me if the wait for me.
Then I'm gonna send each citizen X wants to see it right. So I
get a couple of people looking at it for copy errors because I
sloppy sometimes and then I have to format it and then I have to
put it in MailChimp and I gotta go through a rigmarole then I
gotta find some art that's reasonably amusing. And then I
ship it right? Probably on two hours maybe.
And it's usually done the day before. So you can
close it. There's two ways of doing that one I can sometimes
do the the
Australian version live probably
everything comes out the same time. So it was time where we
had to do it in two days in advance, right ship it and
everybody gets it at the same time all around the world. When
it's 11 o'clock in New York. They get it when it's 11 o'clock
in San Francisco. They get it Now I don't do that that often,
because it loses a little of the immediacy. I like to write.
Sorry, I like to write it right away just before the, you know,
just as late the last minute. So here's
so here's what happened now kind of move you through the process.
Here's what happened in this newsletter, you said, Oh my god,
everyone's talking about Israel Gaza. Ben, you had a nice map.
Why is no one talking about Ebola? And I say, I'm telling
you, five hours after this newsletter drops in my box, I
see nothing but Ebola news everywhere. Everywhere. In fact,
here's the here's the meme of the day. The annoying to me.
Yeah, no, I understand. That's why I'm telling you that it's it
was the timing was interesting, just to add to fears that Ebola
may be spreading as one US official calls that deadly virus
and I'm quoting, it's only a plane ride away. Yeah. It it's
only a plane ride away. Since it was your topic, I was wondering
if you had anything you wanted to say about this, before we
delve into what is really going on with it?
Well, it's couple of things. One, I'm going to discuss the
possibility that Ebola was one of the viruses developed at Fort
Dietrich. Oh, and was one of the theories that goes out and I'm
not going to subscribe to any of these theories, which claims
that Fort Detrick, Maryland under a no, you can look at
something, there's a couple things you can look up the
strict land memorandum is one of them. And this guy named
Strickland and there's a bunch of people writing about this,
some guy's got a new book out on Ebola and AIDS, which are the
two that suppose that were developed by the government in
the 70s. And we've got and the crazy thing about Ebola is that
we have these different strains and the thing never appeared
before 1976. That's when Ebola first showed up. And it had no
there's no natural immunity to it, which has got some people
perturbed and it makes them think that something's amiss.
This is a an artificial agent, and is slightly related to
Marburg or not slightly related to its its familial related it's
a similar hemorrhagic means a major bleed word. And you
hemorrhagic and in your eyeballs bleed and it's a mess.
It's not a good word, a bad condition.
So the Russians have been trying to weaponize Marburg for years.
And in fact, most of the deaths from Marburg have been in
Russian labs. And nobody ever talks about that. But
let me hold on a second. You just kicked off your discussion
of Ebola with pretty much a second half of the show crackpot
conspiracy
theory Well, I'm not gonna subscribe to it. So this was not
completely crackpot,
what would make you want to subscribe to what would you need
the facts.
I mean, a real memo. Now with the memos that are out there on
the street, the Strickland guy, and this other character,
they've dug up a lot of stuff. And what they've dug up is World
Health, organization memorandums and essentially request for
proposals to actually develop an AIDS like virus. Now, anyone who
wants to read all the AIDS conspiracy stuff, they can read
some of the control on me, I got the books right here, and he's
got the books, and it's all out there. But I like to take this
to a different I like to look at this from a different
perspective. And I'm gonna take it right back to the, to the
fears about overpopulation. And, and my conspiracy side of it
would be that the fears of overpopulation, which began in
the 50s, and then get a peak in the 60s with the book,
this, this was the the the explosion, we are going to go
grow exponentially grow out of control,
right. And if you look at the time that this thing called,
total fertility rate around the world, during the actually into
even in 2013, if you looked at any map of the total fertility
rate, which is tends to be around two, which is
replacement, you know, every couple have two kids and they
replace themselves. And then there's other people that don't,
I always grew up hearing my parents talk about 2.3 kids, and
that was what they were supposed to and of course, I'm from the
sixth year I was born in 64.
Right, but everyone was very, you know, they weren't but we
Africans are proud. We're not playing the ball game. And so
it's believed by the most the heavy duty conspiracy guys, that
there was an effort and you can imagine it happening during a
period of panic with The Population Bomb book, and if you
read segments from it, and if you listen to Ehrlich in 1972,
for example, he discussed the idea of how important it would
be to put sterilization agents in the drinking water
right and this was at the same time we had the Genesis movement
or was that earlier
they suggested When we came in earlier, but it was all part of
the same and it was Bill Gates,
his dad and Margaret Sanger who founded later Planned
Parenthood. That's, that's the genesis of birth control,
actually.
Yeah. In fact, Sanger lived in Sanger in 39. And you have to
remember, Ehrlich was born in 34. So he by Sanders ideas and
39 were very popular. Let me read from a clip, little segment
from a book on this stuff. Margaret Sanger organized her
Negro project.
Yes, them damn negros, she said, a program designed.
By the way, this is the founder of Planned Parenthood, a program
designed to eliminate members of what she believed to be an
inferior race. Margaret Sanger justified her proposal because
she believed that the masses of Negroes particularly in the
south, still breed carelessly, and disastrously, with the
result that the increase among negros even more than among
whites is from that portion of the population least
intelligent. Which, of course, was a kind of a funny theme, not
about negros, but about least intelligence people breeding in
the movie Idiocracy resulting in a world of morons. Anyway, so
this kind of thing was in the air. And you can imagine, I
think you can imagine, because genetic engineering isn't the
kind of genetic engineering we do today. But there was there
was molecular biology that was taking place, and there was a
lot of experimental stuff being developed. And you can imagine a
a moment in time from about 1955, all stirred up by this
mania from 1955 to about 2000. No, I'm sorry, about 1980 this
in 1980 55 to 80, where there was a hysteria and some do
gooders, you can imagine saying, can we do any gene, you know,
genetic, specific types of viruses that we can ship down to
Africa, and kill the blacks?
Yeah, because they're they, they procreate way too fast. And
they're not smart.
They're total thing was eight winners with their total
fertility rate was 878, as opposed to two, which is what
you want. And now there's then there's a but if you read all
the conspiracy books you read about, well, they slipped a
bunch of stuff into the smallpox immunization packages and all
the rest. And that's all you know, it's not yet to be proved
or not. And of course,
aids at the time was perfectly constructed the way the
conspiracy goes. That is, the number one form of birth control
at the time in Africa, was just inserting it into a different
spot that didn't name no stamps, yes and no sex. Exactly, which
is the quickest way to spread the disease. The Human
Immunodeficiency Virus,
right. And then an age age was ended up being a secondary group
that got infected.
That was, that was just a benefit. That was a side
benefit.
That was that was a benefit. But
I can just imagine someone saying, cool, that worked
out too. Yeah, well, it's got nothing to do with with
controlling the population. Of course, the homosexuals don't
procreate. So that was just an unfortunate situation for a
subgroup, whatever the case is. This also, if you can imagine
this happening. And then of course, this gets out of control
and you don't know where they're still working on any of this
stuff. And the labs have been closed down. The labs were run
by I think is believed was Litton Industries. biogenetics
they got the contract it was at Fort Detrick, Maryland. I first
read about this in the 80s. About there was the age and
particularly not Ebola, but as was developed in Fort Dietrich,
and I read it in the New York Times. And then that is now
missing in action, all that all those details. So anyway, back
to the point, which is that if this was going on with the with
the population guy coming up with that, you know, creating
this kind of mania of what is going on with the exact same
people and the mania around global climate change. That's
kind of the point. So is there any, because I was at a
conference in Korea, and some guy supposedly from NASA, even
though I was sitting next to a one of the directors at NASA,
and he says he doesn't know who this guy was, but he claimed to
be from NASA and he had this idea of sending soot into the
upper atmosphere to to create a situation that would call them
the global warming problem, because they were everybody was
engineering. Yes. And that is, you don't know if that's not
going on it because nobody knew anything about these, the
creation of these viruses
haven't played in so long.
Anyway, so what we have is a An interesting situation developing
because during the period of The Population Bomb, when the Club
of Rome came out and essentially said that we're all going to die
by the year 2000. And Arabic himself said that we're going to
the population will be down to a billion by 1980. Because of this
situation completely out of control, I ran into a thing that
called the world catalog that had an outline of the book. And
I realized that this outline of the book is a gem of an does not
really an outline, this seems to me it's more of a formula for
writing this sort of this hysterical hand wringing kind of
grasped global control power. Yeah,
here it goes. And this is it. And if you think about it, as
this is a basic skeleton, the problem, which is number one,
the problem on this case two would be we have a situation to
many people number to the ends of the road. In the end,
generally speaking, the model here is we're already it's
already too late. Because he had that in his book, too. And we
have an all climate change guys,
or anything, like consensus, anything like it's already
too late. Well, then there's number three, what is being
done? There isn't there isn't a 97% thing. That's a new
invention. What is being done? And the answer is always not
enough, nor nothing, nothing's being done, right. So you've got
a problem, you have a reaction, it's already too late. Nothing's
being done. Number four is what needs to be done. And then it is
we got to stop something, we got to stop reproducing in the old
case, or we have to stop co2 emissions, which is possible.
What and then number five is what can you do? Which in other
words, get involved, you know, get involved and be like Joy Bay
har, just Bill Maher scientists. Yeah, that's involved. Yes. And
then sciences in. And I think the genius of the whole thing is
what if I'm wrong? Right, which is always the following. Why
it's better to be safe than sorry. So what if I'm wrong this
is and just to slip this in kind of a side note, the White House
just came out with their report the cost of delaying action to
stem climate change. And there was only one piece I wanted to
read from that if you just bear with me, because I yeah, I
marked it up in the in the show notes. Here it is. It's a PDF.
It's It's like how many pages? It's Oh, yes, it's 33 pages. I
want to point out Oh, yeah, it is? Of course. Of course it is.
And here it is climate policy as climate insurance. This is the
main crux of the what if I'm wrong, individuals and
businesses routinely purchase insurance to guard against
various forms of risk, such as fire, theft or other loss. This
logic of self protection also applies to climate change. much
is known about the basic science of climate change. There is a
scientific consensus that because of anthropogenic
emissions of co2 and other greenhouse gases, global
temperatures are increasing, sea levels are rising, and the
world's oceans are becoming more acidic. These and other climate
changes are expected to be harmful on balance to the
world's natural and economic systems. Nevertheless,
uncertainty remains about the magnitude and timing of these
and other aspects of climate change. Even if we assume that
future climate policies are known in advance. So
essentially, they're saying, why would you not take out the
insurance here it is. Research on the economic and policy
implications of such threats as relatively recent. A conclusion
recent detail in section three now you know what it is a
conclusion that clearly emerges from this young but active
literature's that the threat of a climate catastrophe. Nice
alliteration. By the way, climate catastrophe potentially
triggered by crossing an unknown tipping point. Great report
implies erring on the side of prudence today. This is great
accordingly, in a phrase used by Weitzman, Weitzman, Pendik, and
others climate policy can be thought of as, quote, climate
insurance. The logic here is that of risk management in which
one acts now to reduce the chances of worst case outcomes
in the future. So it's exactly the same thing. This report came
out yesterday, yesterday problem,
the end of the road, what's being done, what needs to be
done? What can you do and what if I'm wrong,
and at the same time you create a bonanza of money for an entire
group of insiders?
Well, that's probably happened during that era, too, because
there's an awful lot of material out there and population
control, what does it but let's go back to the possibility that
this resulted in a couple of of these inventions, AIDS and
Ebola. And I was always thinking, Well, you know, is
there anything It would maybe be like a smoking gun that would
indicate that these two things were possibly invented. And by
the same group, the Litton Industries group now at Fort
Dietrich, so I ran into the just by coincidence, I ran into this
guy, now that this guy,
and the guy said, Hey, you want some information?
There, you know how when you were, I don't know, if you've,
if you've been in a Lexus, I don't know if you've ever
noticed this phenomenon. If you've ever been in a Lexus. And
you never get into Toyota, and you finally get into Toyota,
you'll notice that the fam, there's a family similarity,
they got the same kind of door handles, they got the same kind
of thing. See how you get out how you lock the doors, you can
see the family resemblance, you
know, it's like, it's like Ford's where the four horse
they're all has the same ugly,
there's a Ford thing. There's also a general more they all
have this certain thing. So what do you think there's this, this,
this kind of read this end piece, you can look this up on
the Wikipedia, NPC one is identified as the gene that when
mutated, resulted in Niemann pick disease type C. Anyway,
there's this this very interesting gene that we have
called N, PC one. And when it is kind of mutated in some funny
way, you won't get Ebola because he bola uses NPC one to get into
the system. It's important that it's there. And then we read
that and how
does this walk out all listen? Well, how does it get this
Niemann pick NP appears to be essential for Ebola infection?
Now what other single disease out of the millions of diseases
in the world I absolve wire NPC one to work
I'm going to take a crazy guess and say HIV,
exactly. Nothing else. Not that not just
nine cholera and German measles, nothing
call coincidence. But this is ridiculous. I mean, this one,
cholesterol pathways play an important role at multiple
stages during HIV one infection cycle HIV one fusion entry,
assembly and budding occur at the cholesterol enriched
microdomains called in lipid rafts. The HIV accessory
pretext, then it goes on and says in NPC one are needed for
efficient HIV one production, you know,
I grew ball, let me tell you something really crazy. I got an
email from one of the techs at the at the the big AIDS
conference, he and I can't talk, I can't really talk about him,
and he was involved in the production. And when they heard
that the MH 17 had gone down, and he was hearing they're in at
the AIDS conference, about how sad this was, in some way is a
little fuzzy on it, but it related directly to Ebola. And
these guys might have had something or and I never thought
of making that connection.
Well, I didn't think about until this guy did the book on Ebola
and AIDS. And then I started you know, he's a little nutty, he's
a little wacky, but I started looking at some of his
assertions, and he like is a little hysterical. But the other
thing you people should look at is a thing called N S S M dash
200, which is also called the Kissinger report. And it's the
national security study, memorandum 200. And it's
available for reading. And they make all kinds it's not as overt
as some of these, these hysterics make it sound. But
it's worth reading as something you'd enjoy some very good
gotchas in there. Definitely. And this was done in the 70s.
Again, and it was done in 1974, I guess, duck to December 10.
And it was a diversity top secret, and it talked about how
we, you know, how can we in a world of population overgrowth
maintain our ability to get minerals, and wealth from these
third world losers, hmm. And it's a really interesting now
you
have to stop. Because now I have to give you my information. I've
got information, man, new shit has come to light. You just said
something very important. How do we get the minerals from these
third world losers. And if you look at the map of where this is
taking place, of course, we're all being focused now in the
United States, at least of Gitmo nation. I see the corner of my
eye on the news or the that tell the channel that says news. I
see all the spots on the map and here's where they're scanning
for Ebola people coming through have their will to scan you at
the airport, just like SARS. You know, we're gonna make sure to
see if you have any heat and maybe SARS was weaponized to
kill Chinese I don't know but I didn't think much of this in
that regard. Now you just triggered me big time. Because
of course, we're in all of these African nations. We are kicking
the Chinese out. I wonder if they if they have if they can
mutate this gene that probably not probably, I have a you will
find out in research. Chinese are very susceptible to Ebola.
But I was watching my favorite show. You know what that is
obviously?
The Bandcamp show, Marie Harf Oh, yeah, Maria, you got me into
this. And the way
this works in these in the State Department press briefings.
She'll answer questions, but more often than not, she will
answer the question by reading from the policy in the big book.
I have a big book and it's tagged and book. And it's like,
Oh, what is our position on on Liberia open it was a position
Libya open it was a position on Israel palette. And of course,
she's not very skilled. She's and she still goes off. And
that's when she runs into trouble. But what you're about
to hear she was reading from the book. And that's very important.
And if we watch the video, you'll see she opens the books.
He's reading this and it sounds it sounds like it's coming off
the cuff because he's a shitty reader. Listen to this and see
if you hear what I heard
recently, we've confirmed that a US citizen died in Nigeria after
contracting the virus in Liberia. And he had traveled to
Nigeria while infected with the virus. Embassy Abuja officials
have been informed of the case and are working with local
authorities. At least two additional United States
citizens have been infected, due to privacy considerations can't
provide more information about who those two are. We have some
of us missions in the affected areas have distributed messages
to US citizens regarding the Ebola attack. And those missions
are closely monitoring the situation. Can you hear it? No.
Okay. Just that last bit, a roll it back. Listen carefully.
And it's regarding the Ebola attack. You know, hearing,
you don't hear what she said, regarding the Ebola Attack
Attack? Well, if you're gonna take it that far, you might as
well rethink the word the use of the word missions, because
Jesus, she didn't say, you know, she didn't say those two people
were those two people were missionaries. And that would go
right into your brain. So you have the missionaries, and then
you say missions will usually that's referring to a CIA
operation.
Well, now you trumped me on that. Later in this briefing.
She talks about the outbreak, but she's reading and the words
on the paper, say Ebola attack. Come on. Come on.
We have so the US missions in the affected areas have
Zhao to shift right? The US missions in the affected area
missions. Then think about it, these people who are roaming
around from country to country essentially on a mission perhaps
to spread this from one African nation to the next. In the
attack.
The US missions in the affected areas have distributed messages
to US citizens regarding the Ebola attack, and admissions are
closely monitoring the situation continue to keep American
citizens informed of what's happening.
Now here's what's interesting to me is that there's three forms
of Ebola Currently, there's the original one came out in 76 by
the Ebola River, that's Ebola classic. And this class is
called Ebola Sudan. And then there was Ebola Zehr, Zhi, Zi
air. And that came out it also coincidentally, both in 76,
those two strains showed up at the same time never seen before,
in two parts of Africa, two different strains at the same
time. I thought that was rather funny. And then the newest one,
which is the Cote d'Ivoire, the West Coast, East Coast. Ebola is
the one that we're certainly we're now seeing and there's a
very peculiar thing about this that was supposedly did the
origins of this particularly bola are supposedly they Yeah,
like to bring them that was blaming the monkeys for
everything?
Yeah, some guy had sex with a monkey and then brought aids
back to
the lab for that strain of Ebola. The Ivory Coast Ebola was
discovered in 1994. When a female ethnologist performing in
a knit crop of a necropsy. No. On a dead chimpanzee from the
Thai Forest in the Ivory Coast accidentally infected herself
during them during the event. Now, she didn't die apparently
because there's no fatalities from listed from 94 At least on
this list. But what did this error you know this whole thing
is really
what a what a number 33 What a number 33 In this story help you
at all with that make you with
it. What do you have one
friends say Dr. Kent Brantly went to Liberia to become a
medical missionary for Samaritan's Purse. He was
practicing family medicine when Ebola patients began showing up
at his hospital
as the effigy Make began to unfold this guy in Texas by
circumstance. He was asked by the hospital ELWA hospital where
he was serving in Monrovia Liberia to serve as the medical
director of the isolation unit for Ebola.
Dr. David McCray helped train Dr. Brantly who graduated from
residency at John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth last
summer, despite extreme precautions, a full body suit
and strict decontamination protocols. The 33 year old
physician fell ill last week was what was it first thought to be
malaria? I love it
Well, it's interesting that there were people who dropped
dead that are trying to help
a full blown body suit and well he's not dead he's he's He's in
hospital now He's in hospital in hospital that's the British way
of saying it in hospitals in hospital.
Let's play a couple of these clips because it's kind of
interesting.
I your take on this is blowing me away. blowing you away. Oh,
no. Okay. It's not really not really no, it's intriguing that
you are bringing this up means a lot.
Like, wow, I'm just talking I'm what I'm doing is I'm doing a
meta analysis of the of the arguments that are out there.
Yeah. And I'm liking some of these coincidences like that,
that crazy lipid thing.
What is what is the etymology of Ebola of the word itself? Is
there anything in
the river? It was one of the discoveries really, discoveries
of Ebola was near the Ebola River? Ah, okay. All right.
Good. So they named it Ebola and mar the other one, Marburg,
which is in the same family, which is the ones the Russians
are working with. We're working with Ebola apparently. If you're
gonna go that way. Oh, yeah. Well, Russians heartbreak thing
broke is another screwball thing because it broke out in three
places in Europe, including the town of Marburg where it was
named all at once same thing same crazy thing going on so
that there's something fishy remember
when I'm when I don't when we've kind of just started the show,
and I read the Lisbon Treaty, which was the do over of the
European Constitution, which France and the Netherlands voted
against. And this was supposed to be the next step in the
evolution of the European Union, the Lisbon Treaty, right? And
then Ireland voted against it. They said, do over and then they
voted for it. And one of the main things in this in the in
this essentially is the constitution for now, I have to
stop saying the word essentially.
Okay, I'll look for it. Adam, you
and John routinely help each other and call each other out
with language and presentation habits you wish to break. Lately
you have been begun crushing your dialogue with the word
essentially, this usage is basically you're trying to say
basic and this is from our producers and this usage of the
word is weak. It's used to signal the listener to not
challenge but just accept the point or comparison being made.
Thank you a good point. We'll keep we'll keep an eye out.
Okay, keep an eye out. In the in this Lisbon Treaty, there's a
number of reasons when you can be locked up and and jailed
without due process and one of them is if you have a
communicable disease. And we talked about this as well
alcoholism can be a disease, right? Swine flu can be a
disease but this would be a great one. You know, any kind of
communicable virus which by I guess by definition is
communicable could get you locked up and it could it could
usher in a totalitarian state?
Well, I think it would stink up the place if they did it with
something like Marburg but okay. I'm, anyway, let me play a
couple of things that I think are kind of interesting aside
notes. The first thing that I noticed was that in the
international press, before I wrote the newsletter, there was
a lot more fear mongering going on. For example, this front page
of the news male, I believe is Australia might be New Zealand,
Australia, New Zealand prepare for Ebola outbreak and it shows
some guy that one of those suits I think
we need another clip Ebola.
And then from the one of the British papers, the is the
mirror, which is, you know, one step below the myth in the mail
is the deadly Ebola virus on the way to the UK. And then they
have a same thing, a picture of a guy wearing this bunny suit on
the different guy, different bunny suit, but it seems to be a
stock photo of some sort. And because of both black ones in
Australia, I don't know it makes no sense to me. But the the we
haven't done that kind of thing until recently, because most of
the reports are like this one. This is a j this is the
AlJazeera network, making it clear that there's conditions
for Ebola in the United States is are different than than they
are in Africa, which actually, the LEDs lends credence to the
idea that it's a targeted virus but But we'll see
as your aid group is pulling out hundreds of its volunteers, the
Peace Corps sends Americans around the world on humanitarian
missions. Now it worries parts of West Africa are simply too
dangerous. Jonathan Betts is here with that story. Jonathan
John, as you know, the virus is highly contagious. There is no
cure. Ebola is not only infecting locals, but also
doctors, aid workers, and LS three Americans overseas almost
all those who've died were in Liberia, Sierra Leone, and
Guinea. Now humanitarian groups are pulling their people out. As
the Ebola virus spreads, the Peace Corps says it's now
pulling out hundreds of volunteers from West Africa. Its
quarantine to workers after they came in contact with a man who
later died from the virus. The agency says these volunteers are
not symptomatic and are currently isolated and under
observation that could last up to three weeks. Africa is facing
its worst Ebola outbreak ever. More than 670 people killed
since March. There were fears that disease could spread. But
US officials say America is not at risk.
People should realize that the risk of having an outbreak of
Ebola in the United States is exceedingly unlikely and rare,
in part because of the infrastructure that we have for
good infection control.
Still, the Centers for Disease Control has issued an alert to
all doctors urging them to watch for anyone who traveled to the
region and show signs of fever. Yeah, that's the director of the
NIH has done every single news channel saying exactly that, or
infrastructure is different. It's very unlikely to spread. If
I find that coincidence, peculiar. Now the French don't
take that tack. They just go with a straight up report. I
think it's a there's a good little long clip, but it's worth
listening to this as the Ebola from France. Van cat.
Now Pan African airline at Sky has suspended flights to and
from the capitals of Liberia and Sierra Leone due to the
worsening Ebola health crisis is the second African airline to do
so. On the 650 people in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea have
died, including a doctor who was leading the fight against the
outbreak. Charlotte Hawkins has more.
One of the latest victims of Ebola a few kilometers from Kyla
Hearn, one of the infected districts in Sierra Leone, World
Health Organization workers create a makeshift cemetery to
the upon your folder. This is the first time I've dealt with
Ebola on such a large scale something hundreds of people
have died. There are probably more cases we aren't even aware
of or can control this epidemic. We don't have the resources.
Health Workers cover themselves in protective gear, working day
and night to combat the epidemic. Transmitted by contact
with bodily fluids including sweat, Ebola kills up to 90% of
those infects. news came on Tuesday that Sierra Leone's top
Doctor leading the fight against Ebola has himself died from the
virus. Hailed as a national hero. Sheikh Umar Khan was
credited with treating more than 100 patients. three West African
countries are dealing with outbreaks and to date the virus
has claimed more than 670 lives to major African airlines have
now stopped flying to Sierra Leone and Liberia to prevent
further spreading of the disease. But not before one of
the airlines passengers recently carried Ebola to Lagos, Nigeria,
the hospital where he died last week has been closed and
quarantined. It's unknown how many people the virus may have
been passed on to Lagos is Africa's most populous city
sparking fears cases of Ebola there could be easily spread,
just a
plane ride away.
Even Lagos is one of those big towns, that's just massing with
people, lots of people bumping into each other, that would be a
very interesting situation scenario if it gets loose.
So bottom line, we don't have to worry here. And it's going to be
very peaceful in Africa. Lots of parking spots.
This all stems back to the the hysterical fear of the
population as a situation in this 50s and 60s, specifically
from Paul Ehrlich. And this is a cookie cutter representation of
what we're going through now with the global climate change
thing which is the thing that concerns me the most because
some if this unless you were just gonna take it on face the
possibility exists that this all stemmed stemmed from that if
this was a creation, which might be that's not beyond the realm
of possibility,
you mean from the geoengineering? No, I'm
just saying going back to the the Boland. Okay, yeah, being an
engineer thing that came out Out of Positive Thinking by the by
the community of believes that Bill Gates ideally just put it
with at least is something like that going on now that is going
to screw us over because of some assholes who are all in on
climate change, which is just a computer model. And by the way,
this was the same kind of thing it was modeled it was well
here's what's going to happen in continuing you know, run a
computer program, gloom and doom scenario write a book. Well,
that's just the way the guy was a butterfly expert. That's the
joke of it. He later years say once you take in more science,
right,
that's great. There's a let's just stay on. Okay, good. Let's
and let's move right into agenda 21 stuff is what I call it or
climate change whatever you want to heading you want to put it
under a Yale came out with a with a big study, about
communicating here, actually, the title, the study, how to
communicate the scientific consensus on climate change,
plain facts, pie charts, or metaphors. And so this whole
study, a study is to find out which way people list Oh, you
know, believe the climate change message quicker with which which
methodology? And what do you think it would be? And again,
I'll give you the three approaches, descriptive text,
pie chart, and metaphors. And I'll give you the examples here.
Let me give you the examples. Okay. Here it is. Start a clock.
In the first experimental condition, participants were
shown a simple, descriptive text message stating that 97% of
climate scientists have concluded that human caused
climate change is happening. The second condition, participants
were shown a pie chart representing the consensus
visually also tested a variety of different metaphors to
describe the consensus. An example, if 97% of doctors
concluded that your child is sick, would you believe them? Or
the three, or the 3%? That say something different?
We have witnessed all three of these, of course,
so which do you think is the most the most, which is
but I didn't realize they were actually so paranoid that they
can't get their message across with all this bullshit that they
have to come up with this? So I would I would suspect based on
just the storytelling metaphors and all the things that go on
around how we communicate as humans that it would be the
metaphor.
Ha, interesting. Well, you give people
too much credit. So it was just a simple sentence
pictures now pictures, of course, people stupid. All three
approaches are pretty bad. Here we go. All three approaches
improve public understanding of the degree of scientific
consensus overall,
the first one requires reading. The last one requires thinking,
thinking, wonder. And the second one is just looking at a pic.
Well,
it gets better, it gets better. Overall, I feel bad now. No, you
won't, you won't. Overall, the descriptive text and pie chart
were the most effective increasing consensus estimates
by nearly 20% With just one exposure of the pie chart, the
pie chart
performed, particularly an Instagram gas. The pie chart
performed
particularly well for Republicans who of course, are
the stupid is of all to get that in there. These results suggest
that it's possible to improve public understanding of the
scientific consensus on climate change. Notice they don't say
the fact in a way that does not trigger political polarization.
So we have to have lots of pretty pictures and pie charts,
because we're too stupid to understand. So So
you're basically you're taking the 97 97% of all scientists
agree. And instead of just saying 97% of all scientists
show a big pie chart with a little sliver, it's showing 97%
in the word agree. Yeah.
And then a little sliver that says losers. And which one do
you want to be?
Yeah, which one? Are you?
I personally think that I like,
like to be in the majority people. That's the reason for
the 97% I think they overdid it with the 97%. By but that was
debated,
I think was the of course, we need and also, I don't mind
saying 97% But please give me the total number. Give me the
exact number of sign climate scientists. And then I'll
calculate 97% has to be
a lot because we know 30,000 of the client Simon scientists
signed that petition saying
this is bowls or it must be a million in total or something
right?
1000 would represent that 3% So it has to be 970 million. Yeah,
no. 9200 70,000 I don't think there's that many climate
scientists this this number is not possible.
I don't mind the 97% number but you have if you're going to do
be so exact and say 97 For said you need to show me the number
just show me the number and give me the names and then we can
move on from there.
Wait a minute.
I've never actually found that data. Strangely enough.
Oh, that would bring it up to 9.7 million, wouldn't it? No, I
don't I think I think that 900,000 is right. I personally
like metaphors because we don't do video or anything on the
show. So pie charts don't work well. For us. I like metaphors
like what NBC does the fire season, not just expensive, but
historic. nationwide. So far this year, more than 32,000
wildfires have burned 1.6 million acres charred, most of
them in the West, feeding the fires, drought crippling 60% of
the West, intensifying across the region, creating what's
called mega fires, burning faster, hotter and more
explosive than ever before. Crews call this the front lines
of climate change a longer, more destructive fire season. Notice
there's no guy, no firefighter saying we're on the front line
of climate change. How
we had clips on this show from the Congress of experts on
wildfire saying that this is bullshit, particularly in
Australia, where this is also being brought out in the same
way where it has to do with population migration with a lack
of burning,
or blame it on the Aborigines. Well, of course,
I just thought the front lines of climate change. Were on the
front lines of climate change too.
Yeah, I guess. And but the
the fun little thing I picked up is that apparently, and oh, a
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
satellite, Dana, data was stolen from a contractor's personal
computer. And they're kind of freaking out about it, because
they got more of these memos and other weather gate thing. Claim
exactly,
because this is the data that they've been showing us have
temperature data that measured by satellites, which of course
is you know, you can't dispute that science fact. There's a lot
of there's a lot of freak out about this stuff. So we'll see
if that if that surfaces. At the same time. You know, Greenpeace
for some reason, I think Greenpeace has a lot of its base
in the Netherlands. And I know a lot of the ships are registered
there. And I know that they they start missions, they're the guys
who were arrested by the Russians. I think majority of
them were Dutch. They certainly came back to the Dutch port. And
there's a there's strife internally at a Greenpeace. We
already found out that one of the executive directors flies to
work. It's kind of cool. But they also apparently they they
lost something like 35 million. I'm trying to find the number
here. A huge amount of money on investments. See, they get all
this money that people send them. Oh, and
then they invest.
They invest in a mature stock market. Yeah. Like and so
there's, there's Dutch Greenpeace members who are
calling for resignations, and they want to there's there's
documents that are out there. A lot of this is in in the show
notes. How the financial affairs have been in disarray for many
years. Yeah. And so I'm headquarters. There you go. A
staffer had lost 3 million on the foreign exchange pounds that
is on the foreign exchange market by betting mistakenly on
a weak Euro.
Wow, hey, let's see huge blunder.
3 million pounds. Yeah.
The euro is like
how you screwed up on the Euro
illicitly strong, and it's like, hey, I can see how you make the
mistake. Because it makes no sense that it's what, Buck 35
bucks, 36, something like that. Whatever it is, I can look it
up. But it's ridiculously strong. There's no rationale for
it, except unless we figure that well, somebody came up with an
interesting thesis. I didn't make any clips of this. But I
said that why isn't a fair I this is something I'll talk
about DHF unplug. Why isn't the Fed doing something about
raising the interest rates when there's there's apparent
evidence of inflation? And the answer is the only evidence of
inflation is all it when taken in total is bogus. We're
actually trying to fight off a genuine difference. Yeah, we
gotta keep this interest rate down to nothing, no matter what
anybody wants to pretend is going on. Now. We're
back to our discussion about globalists, these people not
actually caring about the United States, but about their own
globalist agenda. And if you look at you know, I someone put
together I I'm not quite sure who did this, but if you go to
bricks map, be Ri ICSM a P bricks map was kind of funny. He
drew this by hand. I liked it a lot. Bricks map.no agenda
notes.com
bricks map. Yeah, no
agenda notes.com. And there's two charts that he kind of drew
by hand. I really like it. Are you there?
I'm hitting it. Here it comes. This breaks versus bis MF by
Adam curry. You wrote just scribbled on this, I
didn't I didn't do this scribble this is that page is just
because I posted the page. So what he has here is red is the
Bank of International Settlements, the IMF and the
gang is our producer says green is the BRICs. And if you see,
you know, South America, BRICS, we have the Asian continent
BRICs. And then you see where the red is, which is the IMF
system and our Bank of International Settlements. And
if you go down you'll see where the influencers are trying to
move and who's trying to influence who in which monetary
system you kind of see that the Fed is just a very small cog in
the wheel and this seems much more I like this as like okay,
this puts it in perspective for me who's fighting who and I'm
not saying the green guys are as strong as the red guys in in
terms of monetary might. But those are the divisions I like
that I like it a lot. Now Argentina Of course, defaulted
last night. Yeah, it's about time and you know, China's
coming in Russia is coming in everyone's gonna I'm sure that
these guys are going to pay it off but either Chinese or
Russians and the globalist who are on the receiving end they
won't care just give me some money. I thought it was an
interesting way of looking at
this a definitely different look.
It looks pretty small our world doesn't it when you see it like
this. Just a bunch of shade holes in red and green.
I do have a clip about China and this was on you know, of course
everything you get on especially the RT news coming out of Moscow
is a little different than the ones you
get because they've they're they're doing business with the
Chinese. And
so here's the here's the here they are needling. Let's see
where it is. I got it, I got needling the USA
event is to target China's ever growing economic influence
there. By Yomi. As a key away from the Pan African newswire.
He believes China's well ahead and a battle for hearts and
minds.
Many African pinion makers and analysts have said that the
relationship between China and Africa, as opposed to
relationship between Africa and the United States has many
advantages for the African people. The Chinese
interventions have resulted in infrastructural developments,
whereas there's a extensive history of exploitative
relations between the United States and other Western
European countries. visa vie the African continent. I believe
that the Obama administration is late in taking this initiative.
But I think it's very important for him to somehow enhance the
image of the United States on the African continent.
After the Ebola has wiped some people out, then we can enhance
the image. Yeah, that would help have an email from about China.
From Morgan who lives there He is in the architectural
business. The Chinese corporate culture is totally money hungry.
It's all about making more money. It has been Yeah, this is
a known fact and he's and he's on the boots on the ground two
years he's been there. It has been proven time and time again
they are totally fine with killing each other and anyone
else after living in China for two years now. I have huge trust
issues with the Chinese race in general call me a racist if you
want but they are all dishonest self interested dickheads look
into plan the planned world's tallest building. So this is
he's an architectural business where the concrete supplier was
using beach sand in the foundation concrete. Take a look
at the new apartment buildings that just fell over they are
careless to the point of stupidity. I am very worried
about any world where they are a major power thank you for your
courage. Morgan from China.
I have gotten this feedback a number of times I remember one
of the first time was I went to China and I went to Beijing and
I was treated like a king cuz I went to a store and everybody
was they were they were essentially I believe they were
just trying to scam just trying to they were trying to practice
English there was no I didn't see any evidence in any sort of
scam
that but then they call you sir or Your Highness
Your Highness is what so anyway, I came back and discuss this
with some some Chinese who were American Chinese but they were
they delay either dual citizenship or they worked at a
Chinese company or whatever. And they gave me grief saying that
you well you got just because you were white. If you were
Chinese that have been given you a crap and you have no idea and
they you can't really trust them. These are Chinese telling
me this. You can't you Good Dara, but their work for you. I
think it was a sir. And we and if you talk to the Taiwanese
about the Mainlanders, because the Taiwanese have been, they've
had some issues. They've had lots of issues and they don't
try. They say the same thing, even though they have to do
business with them and they do constant business. And then you
talk to other kind of ethnologists did study this and
they say, if you really want to get to the nasty as mean
Chinese, you have to go to Malaysia, where you have the
Malay, Chinese and they're the ones who are the kick ass.
That's where I think the Foxconn guy comes from the Foxconn guy
the guy has a factory with a million people in a steel mill
he's I think Malaysian Chinese PA and it just like a lot of the
effect I went to I think I don't know if I told you the story
before or if I told this story but I saw I'm going out to
dinner with had another Malaysian Chinese guy from he
ran the over the own his publishers like a Murdoch of of
South China anywhere in the South China News and we go out
to dinner with a bunch of different people. And he finds
out I'm a wine guy and he says bragging about his wines is I
know what we'll do. Let's have a bottle of 1962 or 82 but 1982
Lynch Bosch Let me
guess let me guess. It was $2,500 Well,
whatever the price was, he had his own seller at the
restaurant. So the price has never really I'm sorry, but it
was an expensive wine whatever the case may have been even
better than the lynch Bosch so he brought his the way it works
though. He brings out the wine shows everybody's gonna get his
way he looks at he says, You know, I think we should have
something else and sends the line back and then we get a
piece of crap. Now you know the ones
you have told the story you go and finish it. Yes, I remember.
Yeah.
I just said that. This to me was the epitome of this total
Chinese dickhead move like I've got this but you know what,
here's some. Some some South African
dreck. So I always thought that was very revealing. It's rude.
Well, it is. Yeah. Yeah. But there's not seen that way
especially bragged about the wine showed the one that he had
it and then was the man. But anyway, the note from that guy
is not unusual. Derek got screwed by a Chinese vendor. A
bunch of money. It has no agenda nation operation. Somebody never
shipped anything. Fuck yeah. And then you get there's no, no way
of going through any process to get to redress anything. It's
terrible.
A number of our producers work for Silicon Valley companies,
some very well known fruit companies, and go to China. Like
sometimes once a week, whenever, whenever it's necessary,
essentially, because what they do, and there's all kinds of
issues with with machines and phones and stuff. And what
happens is, they'll just replace a chip with a different chip,
then they won't tell anybody and then all of a sudden things
start breaking. Yeah. And then they have to send guys over who
have to troubleshoot and work backwards until they find out
that oh, well wait a minute, you you put a cheaper piece in here
and you didn't tell us and they're doing that to big
companies who I would presume are good clients.
Well, the key to success so it's just culture I've been able
generalizing, obviously, I know and it's not necessarily a bad
thing from their perspective. But the key to success with
working with the Chinese is they have your people on the feet on
the ground in China as a running inspection operation. you
inspect everything they do, because there's great products
that come out of China if it's well inspected, but if you have
that situation like the meat then the chicken that was in the
reported in that other story we did the last show where there's
just fallen on the ground is rot. Oh shit, they throw it in
there anyway, they don't give a crap they figured
out a second. We were feeding that to the Chinese. This is
probably a good thing.
Yeah, well, there's that to the Chinese. They screw themselves.
There's all kinds of China within the food.
I have. I have one. I have one clip that relates to China but
it's really about Russia. And I just want to play this and then
we've got to get to our opening lights
before you do that. I got to play one clip from China please.
Yes
of course China. What do you got?
I have got this is the one there was a report that came out
didn't get this clip which is apparently in China there's a
bunch of there's a bunch of crappy chicken that's being
processed and now with the Willis report, which is this
blonde on Fox who's for some reason I don't know if it's
their voice or something she's she's just kind of it's hard to
wait a
minute. Is it time for
chicken and I believe it's maybe not the war on chicken anymore.
Maybe the war on Chinese chicken.
Never go shopping when you're hungry. And also think about
replacements. When you when you want that steak maybe it's
either a smaller cut of steak, fill the rest of the plate with
vegetables, or think about another pro Team seafood, for
example, is much less expensive. Right now we've got higher
prices on chicken because of Foster Farms recall and China is
saying they're going to import chickens to us. I don't want
Chinese chickens to eat seafood meat either. I'm with you on
that. We have to start a national protest right here on
this show about Chinese chicken. Keep it off our shores. That's
what I say. Phil, thank you. Good to see you. Hey, okay,
hold on. This is now making sense. Maybe? Well, it's not
like we didn't know this. But a lot of this Russia stuff is
really also a proxy war with with China and there was an
interview that Sir Malcolm Rifkind did. He's a member of
parliament in the Gitmo nation East there the UK is. And he's
talking to the BBC about Putin, of course, you know, that's,
that's what everyone is talking about. Listen to his slip up in
this fragment from the interview and
what is it exactly that we want? What is Putin gonna do tomorrow,
next week, next month for us to call off the dogs.
It couldn't be simpler. He's got to actually close his borders to
not just the exporting oil transfer of military equipment.
Oh, hold on. Second. Did you hear what he said?
Export transfer. No,
listen, listen carefully, close his borders, export oil
transport be simpler. He's got to actually close his borders to
not just the exporting oil and transfer of oil. Well, I mean,
military transport. It's about the oil. They're selling to
China stop that. It could be Oh, it's part of it. There's not the
whole
gotta be some part. That's hard to it. Yes. Part of it.
Definitely overdoing this. I have a good thing. We'll do it
later in the show. You know,
it's like the Poles have flipped. It's like North is
south. South is north. You know, the good is bad. Poles are
flipping black is white. Fear is freedom. subjugation is
liberation. Contradiction is true. Those are the facts.
Surrender to them. And with that, I say in the morning, do
you John C. Dvorak

cited that clip is from some they love to animate show or
something?
Yeah, some some all in all is something or other. Yeah. Yeah,

system with a nice screen and the no agenda current artwork
displayed right there on the dashboard. Thank you very much
Martin. JJ magic for
it is magic. It's magic
isn't magic. I remember the first time I streamed with the
PCM codec from a sun. Voyager. If anyone will remember this
device. You remember the sun? Voyager was a luggable. No, I
still have it somewhere. It's it was handbuilt. hoarder. Yeah,
the archivist. And I streamed it through a 96.6k modem to San
Francisco received there by a spark 10 and a stream arts.
Yeah. And yeah, Karl Karl Jacob. And we streamed a song. And it
wasn't it was kind of like, choppy and stuff. But it worked.
And that was then I said, this is the future
of broadcasting. Well, you are a visionary. Yeah. And here I am.
Doing a podcast. Right on. Yeah. Well, thank you. Thank you. I
feel good now.
Yeah, well, you know, the visual, you get the way you get
the arrows in your back.
Because they don't feel that bad. Actually.
Well, this year, got your hair. So let's take
a few people. That would be right there on my tombstone.
Well, at least he had his
hair. Yeah. And lots of it. So the way we
operate this program is we don't take any commercial money. We
don't do a native advertising. You won't hear us talking about
phones while we do in our tech segment, obviously Hulu but we
both the way we keep phones the way we keep everything. Rolling
is with donations directly from the people who produce this
program and we treat them as producers in fact, executive
producers and Associate Executive producers who support
the As each individual episode with the appropriate levels are
mentioned their notes are read and who do we have today? John,
we
have a number of people today we want to thank including Daniel
Horowitz, who came in with $639 flat which is the name of the
show.
Oh, and he will be remembered the episode The 639 Club member,
we haven't had one of those for a while longer, it's gonna it's
gonna be harder and harder to make that that jump out with
more than generous piece he writes, with more than generous
PR that you gave the no agenda battery car on the Sunday showed
was imperative that I donate, please allow me to fulfill my
end of the value for value contract with a donation of 639
in an attempt to fulfill your request to beat the fucking
pants off of any Tesla, unquote. I spent Sunday cranking up the
power on the car from it's currently 375 horsepower to four
AD. The acceleration of a 300 pound car with 480 HP and full
torque at zero RPM is astonishing. I love after a fool
after a few quick John's down the street a high voltage fuse
and one of the battery packs gave up on life and ended the
day of testing but that is easily fixable and the car
should be up and running again before the next Sunday. Should
you be taking this thing down to the drag strip? Yeah. Because
there's a drag I think there's a drag strip down in the LA area.
May I please have a caliphate crap my pants resist very much

wandering around
and and we appreciate him putting our no agenda signage
and the magic 33 number on the vehicle, as I'm sure it will go
on to be legendary and the subject of many, many
documentaries. And here is his sequence including some karma
which he didn't ask for. But I'm going to throw in there for
obvious reasons I
can think of crack map payloads. Resist. We much we must and we

douching I'm about 20 shows behind due to life getting in
the way but I plan to catch up and need to give some value for

appreciate it. Here's your de deuced you've got karma

hear his knighting for for three more months.
Apparently. Philip Mason in Welsh pool UK. First, I'd like
to encourage you both on the outstanding content you produce
twice weekly. The no agenda showed truly is the best podcast
in the universe. Long after I got bored stiff The twit network
I continue to read, save unparalleled content and
entertainment from the no agenda show. Whilst not dedicated to
tech news, you still managed to produce the best analysis of
what is really going on with the internet suck on that. Our
friend did we all know who he is? I'm not gonna follow her. I
have included my accounting as I believe I have reached my barony
and it would like to claim the nation of Wales UK, as my
protector it and to be hence known as Sir Philip Mason, Baron
of Wales,
then we should, you should probably give us some Welsh to
speak shouldn't be, you'd think there'd be some kind of way to
say
it a lot. It's not good for the microphone. Maybe one day I too
will have a jingle of my own though I have a feeling I will
need to find a much better paying job before that ever
happens. In the meantime, please accept this payment of 333 33.
As another donation of the value for value system, I'll be
speaking with my bank this week, in hopes of getting a mortgage
Rest assured my monthly donation of $50 will be listed as
essential spending
I fact I believe, view an increases your credit report,
your credit rating?
It could you know, I think setting up the means setting up
a time payment plan. Yeah, to the no agenda show it makes
Well, whatever you do, I think time payment plans show that
you're very dedicated to paying stuff on time. I would
wager to say that no agenda producers are in so many
different places it could happen that you would run into someone
who is a mortgage loan officer at a bank and might see this and
you might say, Oh, this is new. This podcast, no agenda show
off. Let me sign off for it. Don't you think that people that
we have producers everywhere?
Yeah. I'm constantly
in fact, I have a quick clip here
at cab drivers, shoppers. Gas Station people.
I believe that guys, do you think that? Producers on
television shows I'm just gonna say they're always looking for
material. They're always looking for interesting things to point
out. I have been an answer or a question I should say on
Jeopardy before. I bet like why would someone make me a question
on Jeopardy? But when this clip was sent to me, I have two
questions back to back. I'm thinking in the morning Jeopardy
producers food 800 a couple of minutes in the microwavable
sleeve makes these Nestle meat and cheese sandwiches probably
had one a Hot Pocket. Back to you William food 1000 In the
morning you can have instant this from cramming. Come on.
Come on. Maybe Alex Trebek is actually he's like in the he
said it's so nicely in the morning.
Yeah. Did Hot Pockets and then came great with me I couldn't be
just a weird wild coincidence by no we have a lot of Hollywood.

their
job just sick. Let me give it let me give our Baron there
Baron of Wales some karma, where he's the mortgage that the loan
officer you've got karma well deserves and thank you for your
courage of supporting the best podcast in the universe.

donations are like some travel karma and an amazing amazing

So I'm not sure if this has been covered. I just saw commercial
this excuse me this morning reminding parents that the HPV
vaccine is mandatory in DC for sixth graders, and it protects
from seven types of cancer.
That's not exactly factually true, but okay. That's why they
push it that way. Yeah, of course. Of course. We're very
happy to give you a little bit of of the Rev. There's no real
conflict, or something like that. Perhaps you've got karma.
Okay, now we got let me do a quick search on Judy

if she want me to be governor. Yeah, seems like I think I have
more. I can improve people's lives more during the show than
being governor of Texas,
the governor and do the show. Double Dip?
Do I get to live in the governor's mansion?
Yes. And you also don't just take care of your housing
problem. And also you get a pension when you're out at

that into a party palace. We got stripper poles. We got bouncy
castles.
So David costs in Arlington, Texas and other texts and coming
in and doing it. I was I was listening to twit tonight
because I was out of no agenda to listen to. And then he
complains about something which I will not read. Why is that? I
was groaning out loud after a 30 minute conversation about the
future of emojis. Now this is interesting because I don't even
know what he's talking about.
I have you don't know what happened to you. You are
completely oblivious to what went down?
What? Yeah, I am because I didn't watch the show. Okay.
I watched the show because I always enjoy you like the show.
I do like to show I've always said I like the show and
you'd like to show and then I did the weird thing about I'm
going to give people a secret. The weird thing about it you
watch the show hoping you're on
yet to see if I'm on the show. Yeah, you've washed down not on
the show. I want you on the show. Then I'll tell you what
happened very close very shortly because I had the same the exact
same response they had. Who were the Jerry Pournelle and then
then even older guy not that I want to be ageist about a
backseat Jerry who is the oldest guy but there was another guy I
get looks looks for some reason.
So I had those two guys on and then the film girl from
Mashable. Right which and that is her Twitter at film
underscore girl. Yeah. And and so the show then is about emojis
and about how your emoji is no Oh, and emojis. When you if you
do a smiley, which is
that Doom emoticon replacement. It's not
really new. But now everyone is using it if there wasn't there
was a 15 minute conversation about the the depiction of the
poop emoji on Android versus Apple. And it was quite
interesting. If they were serious, too. But then then Leo
starts talking about the Kardashians app and then this
film girl starts talking about it. And I am of course now I'm
I'm you know, I'm just beside myself. So I'm I'm doing I'm not
tweeting at anybody I'm not doing at twit live. I'm not
doing I'm not interested in this film. I'm not saying anything to
her. Then I'm just laughing out loud, you know, but oh my god,
this is so stupid. And what I really felt was stupid and
really, really well. very sexist. Although, of course, I
get called out as being a total dick. You are. No I'm not. No,
I'm
not okay. That's fine. I didn't No, no, I'm
not a total dick. But what happens is, so I'm not trolling
anybody. I'm just entertaining the no agenda people and I'm not
at at doing at sign and you're in the chat room. No, I'm doing
this on Twitter. I'm just doing this on Twitter.
Okay, okay. keep on keepin
on just doing things like oh, look at this. Oh, Kardashians
app, then then, you know, so and of course, then all of a sudden,
like, the next morning I wake up and there's all these tweets
about curries and Dick, you know, super, super sexist,
horrible, misogynistic, and then film girl tweets. Hey, if I were
a washed up former VJ who had failed business ventures and a
dwindling audience, I'd probably be an asshole to strangers to
wow. Yeah. And but here's the thing that is overlooked by her
and that's that's all I had to say about it. I actually was
incensed that no one One saw the obvious sexism of only talking
and then I think that Christina Warner's name. I think she, she
knows a lot about technology. I believe that what she tweets and
what she may write in her blog shows more of her understanding
of technology than what Mashable has her right? Or the twit
network who could only apparently talk to a girl about
technology about the color of an OS, emoji poop signs and the
Kardashian app that is sexist. It's exactly the opposite. But
no one sees this. Everyone says I'm a douchebag. It was it was
really it was very entertaining and the aftermath was just wow.
Okay, so anyway.
Well, I think you've made your point.
I made my point, but it's fall on deaf ears, my friends
come up and say that to you, that's a dumb thing to do. She's
obviously not been a writer very long.
Now. She's young. She's young. Alright,
so you excused or you or you gave her the benefit. You gave
her the benefit of the doubt here. No, I or the rest of your
life and making it a thing?
No, I tweeted back and I said, No, actually, I was kind of
defending you if you don't mind, because I feel that it sounds
like she doesn't mind. Well. She should be outraged that when she
goes on a tech show, she's as a girl. She's throat. Yeah, they
don't. She's thrown the Kardashian app. Then emoji poop,
please. Yeah, no, I think that would be insulting. Yeah, but
she does. Of course, the
bigger question is, is why would this be discussed at all? Well,
Kardashian. Yep, I guess I was.
I was a little tired of watching dead children on television. I'm
sorry. It just just got to me for a moment like Oh, finally
some entertainment. Anyway, Sir David Cole says I decided it was
time to donate to the best podcast in the universe. I'd
like to give karma to Dave Welsh who is still working at my
former employer. I got him hooked on the show before I left
and lastly, I'd like to plug my 3d animation tutorial website
called bro graph.com It's a good domain actually. Bro graph.com
And we thank Sir David cos of course for a helping us out and
here is the karma you've got karma
Well I had a little run in with I guess some guys who are giving
me crap about my column and PC magazine which just came out I
was I think I said I don't think the iOS I time or whatever
they're gonna call this thing is going to work as a as a winner
it's going to probably have an initial good sale this is
the the promised Apple wearable the watch wearable may not be
your watch. It
was gonna be a watch. Whatever they give his coli time, which
was it seems to think
Did you piss on the fanboys a serial? It happens.
And so then Ryan block went after me. All people
wait a minute. I get the emoji Poop Girl. You get Ryan block?
That's well, I think I'd rather have the emoji Poop Girl.
Okay. Hey, join the club have washed up dwindling audience
losers.
Boy that she's gonna regret to say ever saying that. No, no,
she
won't. Yes, she
will she that's a terrible thing to say to someone. Yeah,
well, she she just dumb, dumb. young, young and dumb. It's
okay. She'll grow up. But what did Ryan blockhead say to you?
What happened?
Oh, one of these grumpy old tech colonists, or does he just he
just same old stuff? Well, you didn't use the word old. He just
said grumpy. But it was implied. Well, that's yeah. It was very
good about avoiding the ages that couldn't come back toward
and you're and you're not grumpy. You're just direct.
There's a Yeah, well, I used to live in New York a guy and he
you have to live with this type of personality. Well, anyway, so
that says, sorry, I'm sorry for you. So sorry, went off the edge
there with that whole thing. Anyway, he did. Sir David costs
200 bucks. Now, to make a long story short, Iron Bound designs
is our final Associate Executive Producer tuner dollars New York,
New York. Hi, John and embellishing the show since
August of 2010. When Adam appeared on twit, of course,
this way. This is like one of those moments of random number
theory. We have way too many mentions in this now it's not
random on our show. Now what happened is I enhanced the
viewing experience for people with a running commentary of
hilarity as you know, I am a comedian washed up
because of your Twitter. Yeah, we've had to go back and read
this not see what you said. I personally didn't do in the chat
room and get kicked out.
Now but we've been there for three seconds. Yeah, you don't
last I don't even think I can connect I think I think all of
Austin has been banned. Thanks dance bench
and take a chance to bench and listen to the show since August
when Adam appeared on Twitter. Of course his head heard John
plug no agenda hundreds of hundreds of times. But something
about Adam just made me want to listen more. Thanks for nothing.
Take that John. I will be a college freshman in a few weeks
and decide I finally needed to be deduced. Oh yeah, please play
something Putin to do. They had to we came we saw he died karma.
Timothy in New York City.
Okay, so he wants to soften Putin to the head and a de
douching first. Ben de deuced. The land of unconfirmed Yes, we
came, we saw died. Karma. High School note John high school
students sending us money High School.
Yes, high school he's in high school is going to be started
going going to be attending some college and get ripped off by
the system.
I'm very happy we had this nice lineup of executive producers
and Associate Executive producers. Our donation segment
will be very short today.
Yeah, we're just getting a little it's top heavy today. I
want to remind people we do have a show coming up in which will
be Sunday, Sunday, Saturday, Sunday, Sunday. And then we need
to some continued help. So divorce.org/and A is the place
to go. And I
have two quick PR mentioned mentions one from Ramsey Kane,
our friend from no agenda cd.com of having heard the recent
comments from producers regarding the early shows. I've
been inspired to dust off an old project of a meaningful launch
for a couple of years now. Classic no agenda.com. I'm
republishing the show starting from episode one as a podcast.
So it is a podcast feed It's on iTunes. It is classic no
agenda.com a great idea. So you can relive the memories in this
new Time Life series classic no agenda.com and the note from
Scott McKenzie, you may know him from one day and get mo nation.
He's published a books completely surrounding the memes
and the no agenda show. I thought you'd like to know I've
published another no agenda short story as we say on the
show, a giblet and it's on the Amazon. Here's the blurb. A 90
year old man lies in critical condition after being foiled in
his attempt to murder a Republican candidate for the
upcoming presidential election. Hospital Porter Gordon Gunderson
finds himself drawn to the old man. But why would someone so
old and frail try to assassinate a public figure? And what does
it have to do with an event in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947.
He's also making the foot on the shore story free in the Kindle
store. And you can find all of the links for this at no agenda
novels.com. And this portion of the proceeds always support the
program. And it's just fun to have. I love it when I was when
we moved and I unpacked my books. I had a hardcover of one
day and get my nation signed to me by Muscat. And I think it's
cute. Did you ever read that you read the one and get my nation
store
outstanding work. It's
pretty good story. I liked it. So check all that out in the
show notes at six three Niner dots no agenda
notes.com devora.org/n A and of course, you can always do
something very important which is go out there and propagate
our formula. Our formula is this. We go out for people in
the mouth
boy was a long segment. And all these anecdotes filled with
anecdotes a
lot of stuff to do. Oh, I also tweeted. Matt from AP.
Oh yeah, you're good. What to do with it. Matt say well,
he had he had another we talked about on the show where you had
the he said to Bandcamp girl Marie Harf he said did you Is it
a YouTube video we can see for great sorry line. So I tweeted I
said you know if you're ever in Austin,
get drinks on this on the last show. Yeah, but
he tweeted back. Oh, good. What
do you say? Deal? Anything for ESA journalists anything for
free beer.
It deal he's in? I'm all good. Oh, good. A great guy to know.
He looks like it'd be a lot of fun for sure.
I have one little side little segue clip. Okay, I think is
worth noting. This is the mac and cheese kills clip local
story. Okey dokey. KTVU News
has learned of disturbing new information about a deadly
pedestrian accident in Berkeley. The victim was well known
psychology professor Joe loved who was out for his daily walk.
The 98 year old professor was struck and killed back in April
while in the crosswalk at Sacramento Street and Bancroft.
Police said the driver 56 year old Robert Gilchrist of Oakland
was legally blind and driving on a license Sid had been suspended
14 years ago. And they say he may have been eating a bowl of
macaroni at the time of the crash. You slays the mac and
cheese macaroni and cheese shatter melted together
mac and cheese mac and cheese mac and cheese. Not a day goes
by that I don't receive a picture of some mac and cheese
meme somewhere in the universe.
I don't this story is the most ludicrous thing I've heard for
a year and why why even mentioned it at all
blush. Blind? Why? Macaroni I
even mentioned it.
Ah, top of the news, my friend top of the news.
That's what it's all about. That's bad. That's we got to
make it fun somehow. Yeah, but I last night. I was. I have to say
I was somewhat depressed. Why? This? Just the constant showing
of footage. I mean, it's not like this is footage, right,
man? Yeah, it's just, they're really really really rolling it
out.
They've worn it on.
Yeah, it's Yeah, pouring it on as the way to say it. It's not
it's very not okay. This Yeah, no,
no, I that. But it's just it looks it's excessive in more
ways than one. I mean, it's top of the news. They run half the
news item. I mean, if you listen to any of these stations,
February all the foreign ones a van cat is the half the show is
I mean, but
how can it be that you someone in a performance on live
television shows a nipple? And the whole world freaks the fuck
out? The end you're showing people being blown to bits and
dying and dead and bleeding and just ripped apart? And it's just
repeated? Because it's great. How sick is that? How wrong and
sick is it? Well, I'll
tell you about sick the whole educational side of the of the
equation. Like for example, the public broadcasting group has a
series now I wanted to get it I should get out. Maybe get a clip
for the next show. On sex with sex and animals. The sex with
animals is showing their masturbating an animal screen.
No, no, no, no, no. Do you have a clip? No. I get
the clip for the next show. What kind of animal it was a
porcupine?
No. Gotta be very careful doing that. Yeah, he's gonna hurt
yourself. Why? Why were they doing this
to show that he had a two headed dick. It was disgusting. I had
to turn the show off. I mean, it was all they had all these
animals have insects. And then they jerked off some poor
porcupine who dude the guy claims enjoyed it. And I'm
thinking this is beast geniality. It's illegal. How is
this not based on reality? And they're showing it on public
broadcasting just No problem. Hey, kids need to learn this.
Nothing. There's no need to learn in my
day. You know, we might like fry a a fly with a magnifying glass.
That was kind of the end of what we do.
Yeah, well, they make a big fuss about that cruelty to animals.
Well, apparently, in the American in the in the
entertainment industry entertainment industrial
complex. We have no shame whatsoever, as long as we can
promote something that will make money ie the porcupine
masturbation show, which caught your attention for some reason.
But we will go to, to any length to create controversy in order
to get people to pay attention to something. Okay. And I have
two movie PR clips, which I'm all here it bugged me, bugged
me. This opens up in a week or two and of course we need some
controversy right now for the movie Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles.
Which this one that was they did this years ago.
What the movie? Yeah, yeah, you know, they're doing it again,
doing it again,
a reprise of all things. So
we need to promote this. Of course so and I know one of the
producers which irks me, Scott Mednick, who's kind of like a
Hollywood sissy nanny boy comes from money and he's he's always
Facebooking pictures of him with with, like, Robert De Niro. Oh,
I unset with Bobby I fuck you. But I'm a dickhead. And now he's
he's promoting the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and this I
don't know who this this whatever actors are in there.
He's like, Oh, we're unset with blah blah blah. He's promoting
and then I'm sorry, I hear this story. Okay, good work
everybody. We need to go see this movie came
out pictures has found itself in the middle of some controversy.
poster for the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie
appears to have offended some people. On Tuesday, the studios
Australian branch tweeted this image that shows the turtles in
mid fall from the roof of an exploding New York City
skyscraper along with the movies all Australian release date of
September 11. Some people say considering the parallels
between the image the release date and the 911 attacks against
the US, it was an insensitive choice.
This is a completely fabricated story. And this is no one
complained about this. They're making this up now. I got a
great idea that I know I'm gonna stay put. Wait until this hits
the wire. They're gonna love it.
Yeah, no, this is a totally fabricated story. You can tell
great way
to promote the movie because now people are talking about how did
you hear about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle? Ha. Go see
it and see what we can do lots of yeah, we can do lots of
stories. It's a great little story. And then you can have
people tweet about how outraged they are. And then here's the
other one. Apparently, Philip Seymour Hoffman did a movie
before he died. I'm sure he did a couple actually before he
before he died. And, you know, so we got to promote the movie
that he's in and let's see if like there's some good actors in
this movie. And, you know, let's clip something from this movie
that'll that'll grab people's attention. And we'll put that in
the trailer and we can have some can talk about like, oh, I can't
believe they did that. Good to see. You can do this
social worker for terrorists. across the line. Critics are
calling the most wanted man. A riveting thriller have three
hours to apprehend the dura Philip Seymour Hoffman is
brilliant. There's no going back. Rachel McAdams and Robin
Wright. Every good man has a little bit of a little bit. This
might kill you.
Excellent. She's talking right to Philip Seymour Hoffman. She
says that just might get you killed.
Every little bit of heroin. That just a piece of crap. Yeah, I
guess there's that implication. It's talking about the the thing
there's a meme going on. I don't know where it's headed. You
might have some thoughts on this. I don't know if you picked
it up. But you probably did about the 28. missing pages.
And we talked about this. We played the clip. Yeah. And there
is a website which we promoted the website? I don't know about
the web? 28 pages.com or.org. I think yeah, they tweeted me and
I retweeted them. Yeah, this is people are, you know, they want
this out. They want the 28 pages of the 911. Commission report
that way.
So I have a clip that just came out with the back, Glenn Beck.
And he's got some guy on who read the thing. And there's a
hand wringing over and the guy can't say anything. And by the
way, if the Congressman read this thing, and he signed no
matter what he signed, he can go. I mean, if this thing is so
important, that's what makes me think it's not important. Or I
think there's some sort of a red herring, this 28 pages, a
congressman can go on the floor and say whatever they want, they
can reveal state secrets on the floor of the house. And it's
true. Yeah, you're immune from anything, any legal action,
you're immune from all legal action, from whatever you say,
on the House floor. Ah. And that's what these guys have been
bitching about the guys who moan and groan about the NSA. I think
it was snowed in or one of these or Greenwald, or some of these
guys mentioned that these guys they bitch and moan, but they
could say some of the stuff on the House floor, but they won't
do it. Because it's a gentleman's agreement,
essentially. So somebody could go on say exactly what's in this
28 pages on the house, but but they won't do it. So we get this
sort of thing. And then I wanted to discuss it one more time,
in some sense of control right now. All of those things are
upside upside down. Congressman Massey joins me now from
Washington, DC. Congressman, how are you
doing? Well, Glenn, thanks for having me.
I'm, I'm concerned. This is the guy who did the press conference
messy that we played met a bunch of these guys, right? Well, this
is the guy who played the clip, because I know you can't say
anything, because anything that you say can and will be held
against you. So you know, you're gonna have to talk as
cryptically here. But I I was gravely disturbed by your
description, where you said you had to stop and refigure history
every couple of sentences. Can you? Can you give us any other
description other than that?
Well, absolutely, you know, when 911 happened, and shortly
thereafter, we were all like sponges, we're trying to absorb
as much information to understand the who the what the
why, the where, and then but at some point, you quit collecting
information because there's no more information to be had or
you think there's no more information. And it all sort of
sets up like concrete in your brain. Well, as I was reading
these 28 pages, I had to try and take apart that concrete that
had set up my own understanding of what had led up to 911 and
what had enabled it and then also what really hurt me was to
wonder, why did my government keep this from me for 13 years?
What What were their motives? And I'm you know, there will be
anger frustrating shame and embarrassment when these 28
pages finally come out, those are all emotions that you
described that I had
just had a thought about this. Okay, good. It's the timing. The
timing of that is most interesting. I'm sure that
what's in it is something about Mossad or Israel. And I believe
that's why it has come to the forefront now.
Well, the two key words in this and that's the reason I wanted
to reintroduce the topic because we didn't really get anywhere is
led up and enabled. Yeah, so this is
not about it's not a smoking gun or anything like right, this
is not about the explosives being in the building. And then
it was brought down by pushing a button like WT C seven. It's got
nothing to do with anything this is about led up and enabled. So
in other words, is all pre 911 information. Yes, exactly. i It
could be Mossad something or other it could be
Islam. That's been the conspiracy is I don't think it's
anything
other than I don't think it's going to be anything like this.
I think it's going to be very boring. I think that's a red
herring. Well, someone
has to be someone has to be the scapegoat. So let's let's just
think about this for a moment. Who could be the person who's
going to get shafted over essentially what is going to be
nothing and I agree that is the way it's being played up at the
minute Beck gets involved, and this guy's on Beck, please. Now
you're insulting my intelligence. Yes. And so it
sounds like that someone's going to have to get shaft
and I believe Beck saw it seen the doc you might have
might have Who do you think there's a couple of you who do
you think we'll get shafted for this? i It's funny because I saw
some
Welbeck indicated if you tried to deconstruct it, assuming that
he may have seen the documentary, he's talked to this
guy on the side, confidential, you know, stuff in the
background. He said back said that his won't affect the Obama
administration in any way.
How about power?
How about this for and I will power has already taken a hit.
Recently news indicates that he was left out of the loop of CIA
loop about
lunch, I think is actually clearing his name. If anything,
I think that's bull I agree with that, I think is bullcrap. And I
think it's I think it's also bullcrap. I think this is just
another this is one of the many, when it boils down is going to
it's going to somehow affect Clinton, and it's going to hurt
Hillary, this is another roundabout way of making sure
Hillary doesn't get on the ticket.
I would agree with that. I would agree that would be a good way
to do it. Let's throw 911 on the bitch. Right? Yeah. Whereas the
true travesty is the Wall Street Journal reports today. The total
bill to date and the Wall Street Journal, I would say they've
done their homework healthcare.gov Now we've
complained in the in the past John about $18 million websites
for things and they a Drupal thing you know, for 12 million
and just crazy and crazy money.
Yeah, you can get some kid to do it. I got it. I can just trip
over some bum on the street and they could do a Drupal site.
Well, that's only in the mission. What do you think the
Wall Street Journal reported as the the cost and there they are
the headline reads poorly managed healthcare.gov
construction cost? I'm going to say that a lot of that was also
back end stuff and integration. So it's a lot more than than
just a website. I mean, that's ludicrous to even report that
and attack reporting in general, including the Wall Street
Journal, and the New York Times and all of the leading
publications is so pathetic, that words like glitch are used
and it always ends with the Oh, the the future of tech will show
us who knows how things will develop. There's not a tech.
Well, there are there are actual tech reporters, but they're not
allowed to write anything because it's to the people don't
care. They don't care. They just wanted to buy the phone and
work. Whatever. How much do you think how much do you think they
calculated this cost to be
of the 1.2 billion?
Not quite that $840 million? It's ridiculous. Yeah, it is
kind of ridiculous.
Got a note here from going back to Hillary. Do we have to? I can
say this for the Sunday show.
Yeah, I want you to do that. There's so much other stuff. Do
you have anything on the Israel and Palestine thing? I've got a
couple of clips and we just listened to no I
was. Since I was working on the Ebola thing. It'd be kind of I
just mixed all that stuff. It's just seems like a bunch of two
way propaganda. Everybody's trying to push push their side
don't believe any of it. I mean, I believe people are getting
killed. Yeah, that goes on all the time.
Looking at what's going on if the way this is being presented,
I almost think that Twitter and Facebook are behind this to
increase engagement.
Well, they're definitely getting their money's worth because they
because that is really working.
Then I got a couple of dumb clips here. Let's see Jen was
back briefly. Jen Psaki and was was back she was back I got a
clip of her and Matt course I just love that guy. You know, he
is I've been known in DC takes him seriously, that was all
there is that grouchy, old drunk.
You know what I mean? Who knows? They refer to him. So that's a
plus. He needs
a fan club and and I'd send him hookers. This. He is,
hey, there's plenty of hookers in DC. Well, they don't have to
send them in. We can't afford
those. I mean, send something from you know, San Antonio.
San Antonio, I have to
say all of the press mainstream press. I haven't been of hero
worship for him. Is that strange?
Yes. It is very odd. Just very odd.
He's funny. Brush. Yeah, it's a it's a bromance. Yes, exactly.
He's funny in a very snide way. He reminds me a younger John C.
Dvorak. Drunk. The reports of
the children killed while playing on a playground is
devastating and tragic. I don't have more information at this
point. But we certainly urge all parties to respect the civilian
nature of schools and medical facilities. Are you ascribing
I don't want to use the word blame, or you ascribing the
attacks on the explosions of the schools and hospitals are those
Israeli strikes or they Hamas missiles we
don't have any blame to ascribe at this point in time.
Obviously, these events just happened over the past 24 hours.
I love it.
I'm just a missile. So we can't put any blame on anybody. It's
just it's just it's just a missile. Maria was back on
broth. This is now way way
way stop before you continue. But since you're in contact with
this guy, why don't you ask him what the deal is with Saki?
What? Why she got
I did. I did tweet that.
Oh, you didn't? What do you say?
I did not get an answer. Okay, he doesn't follow me. So I guess
I just had to get lucky. I don't know why did why doesn't he
follow me? I am a bit hurt by that.
He probably doesn't follow he. While you're talking about
figuring out what his mentality is regarding this. He tweeted
the so called Proof of these pictures with arrows of Ukraine
and arena all here is clearly where there's a missile base or
a launcher. And here's his full name. It's a P did Diplo at AP
Diplo, I think is is
Twitter. AP diplomat Lee.
Yes, madly. Right. Here is a summary heart Bandcamp girl is I
guess everyone likes the show she does with the with broth
with a Wolf Blitzer. Because she is on all the time and
Broadfield gives her a little bit of crap. But she pushes back
and she's got a cute little dimple in her right cheek. They
do real close up and she's got the nerd glasses on. And I can
see where the producers are enjoying this little Tatta tat
as broth is pushing very hard. He's in he's in, in Israel right
now that he's going through tunnels. He's doing all on the,
you know, on the boots on the ground reporting and he's got a
fantastic tan guy, that guy looks healthy. The Obama
administration in the US has accepted that Israel's requests
for resupply of ammunition, some weapons stockpiled in Israel for
Israeli use right now, in this war that's presumably going to
cause some diplomatic headaches from the United States. If some
of those weapons some of those munitions wind up killing
civilians, for example, in Gaza. Are you concerned about that?
Well, Wolf, we've
said not just in this conflict, certainly, but in this entire
administration, that we are going to stand by Israel and do
a number of things to help it defend its security and to help
it whether it's Iron Dome, which is of course a defensive system,
or helping the Israelis with security funding, we're going to
stand by them as they fight this threat. But that doesn't mean
that when we think they could do more, we won't say that. And I
think the Secretary has been very focused on the diplomatic
efforts. He's an Indian today. Oh, you know, but he's already
made a dozen phone calls to partners to see if we can get a
unilateral excuse me, an unconditional not unilateral
conditional temporary ceasefire put in place so we can stop the
fighting so we can take some time to see if we can negotiate
a longer term ceasefire.
Stop the fighting unilateral I mean unconditional. A note from
Sir D H. slammer. Gentlemen, Mrs. Served eh Slammer went to
high school with a guy that now works for Booz Allen Hamilton
and is assigned to the State Department image PR team.
Unfortunately, he is not assigned to Marie Harf but he
knows the person who is we have planted the subconscious idea
that he should get Marie to say on microphone. And this one time
at band camp if this wonderful, amazing fabulous event does
occur, then the slammer family takes full credit. I pray every
night for this in this one time at band camp, I stuck a flute
Yeah, that's not gonna happen. This is one of the few times
John when I am just, I don't know anymore. I just don't know
anymore. I do not know we've we've been through the recent
history of what is going on here. We've been through the
historical history. It's you know, it's just everyone is
people just killing each other. There's just you know, that's
it's just we kill them, you kill us. And and the media porns it
up and shows all the blood and the gore. I just I don't see any
anything else that nothing else that makes any sense. Oh, and by
the way, everyone has an opinion. That's also it's just,
I don't know what to say. I'm, I'm kind of almost done with the
topic.
Well, I am kind of done with the topic. Okay. You talk about the
Middle East,
mom, Israel, Palestine, or Gaza, Gaza, Middle East and the Middle
East to
actually get all that kind of good stuff.
A lot of interesting stuff happening we just sold. We've
approved a $700 million sale of Hellfire missiles to Iraq.
That's the biggest order so far.
Now that we get to making money on the deal. We have
right off the coast here. I can see it from my house. We have a
tanker of Kurdish oil, which is now being offloaded onto buyers
tankers, although a judge has tried to sign an order to seize
it if it came within the territorial waters, which it's
not. So this is $100 million cargo which came from the Kurds
from Kukoc through Turkey into the into the big ship and we're
buying it here and I don't know if we're going to use it or
we're going to ship it off to other ports of other origin. The
pipelines are so full blown full so full bore from Kurdistan,
that the tanks at the Turkish port of say Han are full they
have to actually stop the pumping through the pipeline. So
much oil is come free and I'm looking at $3.20 here for
gasoline
it'd be about a buck 50 For sure.
But I haven't seen it this low in a long time. And it's not
that low. No but it's much lower than it's ever been.
Yes. Well there's this shouldn't be lower. Okay,
but you get the point.
Ya know, it's putting downward pressure
Yeah, I'll say everything I'll say
yeah
so I read the the Institute of Research on war or whatever and
you're the Kagan stuff every single day and it just seems
like we were seems like everything is a okay good to go
and be turkeys in a weird spot. We have the they've had to halt
the oil as I just said because the all everything's fulfilled
up there.
There's also I got a turkey clue crazy thing going on in Turkey
that is needed. This was I believe this was on this arrest
more around just to know about the women smiling. Oh, yeah.
Good. Good.
Good. Where's it?
Women in Turkey smiling?
Yes, yes, this was a good one. So I'm about to see what's
trending on the web. Let's
check back in with her mela Antonio photos of Turkish women
laughing or going viral but it's not because they're happy
they're doing it in protest of recent comments made by Turkey's
deputy prime minister at a celebration for Ebola and aren't
said that to protect moral values. Women should not laugh
in public. Hundreds of 1000s of Turkish women are defying that
sentiment. They're posting photos of themselves laughing
all over social media. But for many of them, it's really not a
laughing matter. Turkey is one of the worst countries for
women's rights. According to a 2013 Global Gender Gap Report.
It ranks 100 and 20th out of 136 countries. Given that reality
the Deputy Prime Minister's comments provided fuel for
members of the more secular opposition party opposition
number Melda onore tweeted While so many murders are being
committed, the Deputy Prime Minister makes women a target by
stressing the need for chastity. To our point in the last decade,
the murder rate of women in Turkey has skyrocketed and
domestic violence is also a major issue. About 40% of women
in the country have suffered physical abuse at some point in
their lives.
What you're not hearing is, boy, maybe you are is the old more
more Gulenists goon supporters being arrested thrown in jail.
11 police officers 103 people detained I feel that This is
still all a setup to get Erawan out the in the president the
question about that?
Yeah, I think we've already decided that right. But
this is good because you have this clip, the Washington Post
also wrote a scathing article. I just don't know who was going to
come in his place.
You know, they got some guy lined up. We just don't know who
he is. I've kept him under wraps. I'm sure if we had some.
Do we have any producers in Turkey?
I know. Yes. We do. We have one of our producers is teaching
over there.
Well, the he would he would if he would think and if he
actually thought about this, he would figure it out.
He will let us know. Because this is yeah. Yeah. He'll he'll
give I'm sure. Now that he's heard this, I'll get back to us.
Now, I'd like to talk about Russia and the Ukrainian
situation, but it's really much more than just, it's really just
all F Russia essentially.
And I ran a couple backgrounders on this. I have because Doug
Herbert, my absolute favorite analyst, Doug Herbert's the guy,
the bald guy on Fred Franz Mankato. And he was the one who
clued us into the Crimean situation months before anybody
else even notice this is about the deal is about the deal. The
deal the deal is, I love this deal. All of a sudden things
fall into place, don't
they? Well, a lot of things do. But let's listen to his summary
of the deal about the sanctions against Russia and the deal that
came up and he's got a different little take on it. It's the
other people I listen to the ADDIE or whatever name is aid
that Libby aid or whatever name is that blonde girl on boom,
bust on RT. And of course, she's gonna be spouting the party
line. And it was a little different than this. Oh, joining
me for more on this is our international affairs editor,
Douglas Herbert. Hello, Doug. The sanctions are tough for
other gonna be tough enough
and tough enough to make Putin change course. Right. That's the
question. We were talking about this, we'll be talking about it
all week. The headline sound great, right, toughest sanctions
against Russia since the Cold War. And look, let's not poopoo
them, they are tough in the sense that they hit a lot of
different sectors defense, energy banking, financial key
element being the oil industry, right? Russia depends heavily on
its oil industry, it needs to get at hard to reach oil
deposits, as its own production sort of tapers off in the Arctic
in the deep sea shale gas, it doesn't have that technology, it
needs it from outside. So that's where the section, the sanctions
in the future could really bite. That said, as one, as as one
analyst referred to these, these sanctions come with both the EU
and the EU, and the US loopholes that are large enough to drive a
couple of giant warships through and what they meant by that. It
sounds a little glib, but what they meant is literally, the
French Mistral the naval contract to sell ships to Russia
that's excluded that's exempt from this. So they're gonna
probably still get at least one of those worships the entire
Russian gas industry. Let me say that one more time, the entire
Russian gas industry, perhaps the biggest thing on which
Europe relies from Russia is exempt. They have no part in the
sanctions, the sanctions applied to the oil industry and
technology, not gas, totally exempt. Plus, and we often
forget this Europe does actually buy military equipment from
Russia, to serve as things like tanks and other weapons that it
purchases, it's going to continue most likely buying
those parts that's not exempt from the sanctions. So Russia's
defense industry while hit and examined and there will be an
arms embargo. It's not going to be crushed, it will continue to
operate. So there are there are big holes, there are loopholes.
These are tough. They're not the giant sectoral sanctions that
we've been talking about. That is correct.
And I have here the background, the transcript of the background
conference call on Ukraine, this is what the the White House does
this. And they're never allowed to the reporters are never
allowed to name the officials by, by name, just a senior
administration official, and the background on the sanctions. And
besides what we're extremely correct here on your guy, what's
his name again? Doug, Doug Herbert,
old Doug ball, Doug.
Here's the senior Administration official from the transcript
you've seen the actions that we've taken here are very
carefully constructed? Yes, indeed they are. These are not
prohibitions that would attach to a Russian account holder
moving money and dollars or moving money abroad. These
prohibitions are targeted the banks themselves and their long
term stability. Here's what's interesting, it's not blocking.
What it is, is a prohibition on them obtaining medium or long
term debt financing up to 90 days. So you're allowed to do
business with the Russian banks, as long as it's a 90 day deal,
and not not over 90 days. And what they're saying is that all
of these sanctions are hitting the banks who have huge who hold
us dollar debt, but I think that's very significant. and
that they're essentially the way I see it not allowing the
Russians to unload their debt to strike our economy. Does that
make any sense?
It makes lots of sense that it would be a good thing to try to
attempt. I don't sure sure that you can't circumvent anything
such as that, when you're in discussing this, the thing that
also kind of got my attention was when the private banks
aren't affected. And I think I think there's five banks in
Russia that are owned by the government, and they only
affects four of them. There's one bank that's free to continue
on its merry way. I have not gotten to the bottom of why that
is,
in the end, independent today. The they announced a big story,
headline land for gas Merkel and Putin discuss secret deal which
could end Ukraine crisis. Nice picture of Putin and Merkel
shaking hands. Very, very good. And here it is. Germany and
Russia been working on a secret plan to broker a peaceful
solution to end international tensions over Ukraine. The
independent and revealed that the peace plan being worked on
by both Angela Merkel and Vladimir Putin poutine poutine
hinges on two main ambitions stabilizing the borders of
Ukraine and providing the financially troubled country
with a strong economic boost, particularly a new energy
agreement ensuring secure grass supplies which makes nothing but
sense that remember, we're not so sure the Germans are are on
our side in this in fact, we're there's a lot of evidence that
says they're not. more controversially, if Ms. Merkel's
deal were to be acceptable to the Russians, the international
community would need to recognize Crimea as independence
and its annexation by Russia. Sources close to the secret
negotiations claimed the first part of the stabilization plan
requires Russia to withdraw its financial and military support
to the various pro separatist groups. As a part of such
arrangement, that region will be allowed to some devolve powers.
At the same time Ukrainian president would then agree not
to apply to join NATO which of course is a big deal. This is
the this is the border. This is the the front line. In return
Putin President Putin would not seek to block or interfere with
Ukraine's new trade relations with the European Union under a
pact signed a few weeks ago. Second, Ukraine will be offered
a new long term agreement with Russia's Gazprom for future gas
supplies and pricing. I present there's no guessing the places
we know. And supplies are running low. So Merkel is trying
to broker this deal. And at the same time, we have the IMF
making all kinds of horrible noise because of course, you
know, you we need more sanctions, you know, this is not
working out, you're not able to pay us back we need more tax
hikes. So it's a real fight. And if this secret negotiation is
true, then then we will have a major problem with Germany, at
least, the Atlanticist globalist such as Kerry and the Kagan's
and the dailies, now, these eight holes are going to have a
big problem with what she is doing. The same time, there is a
bonanza going on with the money there's a lot of money that has
been frozen frozen assets. And you'll recall a my initial
analysis of the Netherlands after the MH 17 crash and how
much the Dutch economy really thrives on Russian imports and
exports of the same imports. They are just a pass through
country. But they also have very, very favorable tax laws,
ie almost no tax on certain types of income, no holding tax.
And many, many Russian oligarchs and corporations are have their
financial base in the Netherlands. They're all BVs.
And when the eukhost case, a came up, several years ago, the
Dutch overturned a Russian decision and that's when the
Russian said, Oh my God, we can buy off these judges here in the
Netherlands. We need all of our stuff in Holland and would you
know it? the Yukos case came up again, there was an
international court case in The Hague with Dutch judges on the
panel. And look what
happens. I'm delighted to confirm that those final awards,
which were unanimous, are very favorable to the claimants the
GML limited subsidiaries Holly enterprises limited and UPS
universal limited, together with veteran petroleum limited. The
three claimants have been awarded total damages of in
excess of $50 billion. This is by a multiple of more than 20,
the largest arbitration award ever. But I do want to note that
the tribunal in the final awards specifically and unanimously
confirm that in their view, the attacks by the Russian
Federation on Yukos oil company. Its founders including Mikhail
Khodorkovsky and its employees politically motivated, and that
the primary objective of all the Russian federate, the primary
objective of the Russian Federation, was not to collect
taxes, but rather to bankrupt you costs and appropriate its
underlying assets for the benefit of the state in the
guise of Rosneft.
So they have assets frozen in Europe. And now they're just
saying, oh, okay, here it is. And they're going to this is not
reported this way. But someone's getting 50 billion and the pussy
ride they're jumping right on it. Oh, yes, we are there in
Strasbourg in court, they want to recover $336,000 from from
Russia for you know, their costs and all the stress that was
imposed upon them. Everybody is now jumping in Hey, do you have
some kind of emotional distress because of the Russians? You can
just start a lawsuit and you know that there's a big pile of
money go ahead and just hey, let's just sue them take it
you're gonna see you're gonna see all of these these lawsuits
because there's money there's money to be had.
And well, they fraud This is the old trick. Trick we're doing
this. And then fast ads over here in our banks and then sue
them and they get tickets into frozen assets. They got no
control over
exactly. So it's a bonanza. Oh, yeah, I got Yeah, I got I had
lunch at the Russian Tea Room and I didn't feel good but I'm
gonna sue them. But give me the Give me my money.
Don't you think this is beyond chicken shit? Well, Russia
hitting
back. We know one thing is a is a fact to date. The United
States of Gitmo nation, the military industrial complex
filled with the Atlanticist globalist have never invaded a
country where we have a McDonald's Corporation on the
ground. I believe this is true. And you've heard this.
Yeah, but still I mean, McDonald's first showed up in
1955 is doesn't did like a track record of like 60 years or so. I
don't think that's much of a of a standard of to compare with.
McDonald's makes a lot of money in Russia. I think it's time to
kick them out. Ban that's exactly what Russia is doing.
The
production and sales of some of McDonald's products is likely to
be banned and Russia. legal sanctions may affect
cheeseburgers and royal cheeseburgers filet of fish,
chicken burgers, ice cream with their fillings and milkshakes.
Did you hear the
bear fillings?
I heard as cream as cream with bear. fish, chicken burgers, ice
cream with bear fillings. Ask
what kind of a hamburger is a royal
ice cream pear fillings Hold on a second. How come I haven't
been offered that here in Austin South Congress
and royal cheeseburgers filet of fish, chicken burgers, ice cream
with their fillings and milkshakes. requirements were
submitted to the tourist boycott of Moscow from the Russian
Federal Service for consumer rights. The content of fat
protein and carbohydrates and these products does not
correspond to the data indicators and information
sheets. The violation was revealed as a result of a
routine checkup conducted in mailers to restaurants
in the city. The saying is your products don't hold up. We know
that because it's the same as in China. And that was a good bit
essentially, the ass cream and the bear
play Doug Herbert's part two because here's where he talks
about what what the Russians can do to us. What about a potential
backlash? Could this come back to bite Europe? Yes.
And yes, in the ice cream there
is already European companies are openly already talking about
this. One of the biggest companies targeted by the
sanctions is the largest oil producer in Russia, Ross NEFT,
and there are several companies, European ones with big ties
British Petroleum BP, BP has an almost 20% stake in rosneath. It
has said it's come out and said we are going to be and towards
were adversely impacted by the sanctions. You have. You have
ExxonMobil US oil giant it also has a joint venture with Ross
enough to do what to explore for Arctic oil that we were just
talking about in the sanctions ExxonMobil can be can be hit
beyond the oil industry carmakers, French carmaker
Renault Jaya carmaker it along with a Nissan in Japan, they
have a controlling stake in Russia's largest selling
automaker a company called Auto vas. They could be hit Renaud
already says it's seen a big sales slump in sales to Russia.
And you can just the list keeps going on and Putin himself have
very big consequences. A big backlash. Russian lawmakers are
sitting there right now. And they are considering new laws,
new legislation that they say could outright ban certain
Western companies from operating altogether in Russia companies
in in the energy and the defense sectors. So Russia is not
sitting down and going to take this lightly. They are going to
bite back they are going to lash out. And so you have to sit
tight the question is how much pain ultimately is Europe going
to The gonna be willing to take how long will the sanctions
last? And will they be actually willing to take them to an even
deeper level? If if things come to that?
I think I answer's
no, no, of
course not. 2017 You've always called it John, I think but I
think we're seeing the, the beginnings of just that of the
war in Europe. Did you see? Did you see the economist, The
Economist, which of course is a Atlanticist a globalist British
publication totally. Russia mh 17 and the West a web of lies to
the economy. This is the economist Lottie Meir prudence,
epic deceits have grave consequences for his people and
the outside world. And they and they lay it out John, in 1991,
when Soviet communism collapsed, it seemed as if Russian people
might at last have the chance to become citizens of a normal
Western democracy. Vladimir Putin is disastrous contribution
to Russia's history has been to set his country on a different
path. And yet, many around the world through self interest or
self deception had been unwilling to see Mr. Putin as he
really is. And then they go on to say the shooting down of
Malaysian Airlines flight MH 17, the killing of 280 98 innocent
people and the desecration of their bodies in the sunflower
fields of eastern Ukraine. It's above all, a tragedy of lives
cut short and of those left behind to mourn but it is also a
measure of the harm Mr. Putin has done. This is the economist
man.
Wow, that's a good catch is that would that be Clip of the Day a
whole
article on your him Russia has again become a place in which
truth and falsehoods are no longer distinct, and facts are
put into the service of the government? Mr. Putin sets
himself up as a patriot, but he is a threat to international
norms to his neighbors and to the Russians themselves who are
intoxicated by his hysterical brand of anti Western propaganda
and just goes on from there.
Hmm. But it's pretty loaded up Oh, and the whole
thing is it's it's mind boggling to read this account. It's it's
it's like almost like someone went to the State Department and
said, Hey, you got any copy?
What are we gonna do? Is this and the State Department?
Apparently I did. This sounds like if we back up from this
whole scenario, it looks like and I think with good reason, we
would like to screw the EU as Victoria Nuland said, Yes. I
wasn't quite anyway we can because they are a threat to our
long term goals of the kind of empire that we're we've
established. And you got to you know, we I think we're, I think
this Merkel is is that's what we're spying on her Yeah, she is
a not on our side on this deal. She's a European is a German
doesn't trust us as like, she's got a clue compared to the other
ones. Who are clueless Yeah,
or too chickenshit to say anything because the Dutch
sorry, get mo nation lowlanders. But without Russia, you're
already one of the weakest brethren of the of the EU at the
moment, your entire economy would just disintegrate. gas,
oil money. It's all you do. You don't produce anything.
Right? But they're gonna be on our side.
Well, kind of, but they won't really do anything. They're just
beat. Well, they're appeasing people, like, oh, how would I
know? Let's have a sham arbitration lawsuit looking
thing and put on some black robes and say, here's $50
billion go away.
Whatever the case is, the Merkel is not playing the game the way
we want it played. Obviously, she's an independent thinker,
and is screwing things up. And so now we got to figure our way
out of this.
Who do you think was her case officer who was supposed to get
her in line was that Obama? Who did they think was going to talk
to her and make her see the way?
Well, it wasn't George Bush, who one time put his hands on her.
Give her a shoulder massage, and she just shoot him away?
freaked out?
I think, I don't know. I think that the German intelligence
services probably got some, some savvy people working there and
they're just not putting up with what we want them to do.
And it makes you wonder, and I'm glad this is coming up. It makes
you wonder, with all these Tor people, I'm looking at you Apple
bomb all of these grand Greenwell down RAF Laurel or
Poitras, everybody hanging out there WikiLeaks, Sarah Harrison,
they're all spies, the whole thing they're all against us.
Tor completely compromised. The the
figure that I said about it, but it was a big shocker. Yeah, Pa
look at the financing of it. You can figure that out. All
living in Berlin. I mean, Snowden is one thing. But you've
got these eight holes living in Berlin Come on people
of course, I don't have any dog in the hunt. I mean, I'm, I'm a
a world lover. All
we do I love every bucket these things, say, well, maybe this is
what's going on. That's it but totally, definitely not going
the way we want
and then somehow, I guess a lot okay, it gets Obama felt really
bad that he wasn't involved in the in the deal. He's kind of
like the the sad kid who doesn't get chosen for the dodgeball
team. Like, oh, well, they breached a nuclear treaty, which
is like no legs. And oh, yes. They've been testing missiles
against all laws from Reagan's time. Come on. Better than that.
It's a Yeah. So I think it'd be very, very important to see what
happens with if this land for for a gas deal is true.
It probably is true. You usually leak those things in some fancy
way to get to see what happens. So you can deny it. But you want
us you want to see what the reaction will be. So you this
stuff hat. You can't just pull this off out of the blue. No,
no, this is this is the big mistake that companies make when
new products sometimes they just bring a product out and then it
says hey, you left the you just happened to Texas Instruments
when they brought the TI 99 Hey, you know, a control key is
usually valuable. You know, they get rid of that. There was a
missing key.
I don't remember this controversy. Yeah, well, it was
back before your time. No control key. I
love that. There was no control. There was a key missing. You
know, lots of kids
listen to our show and they love our show where it's our theory
for the jingles. I tweeted this out but I want to make sure I
played the audio it is a video of producer Craig's daughter two
and a half year old daughter she's sitting in the car seat in
the back of the car with that big smile on her face. Big got
like her socks on or legs with sticking in the you know kids
can be right. Like like she just took a dump like and then she
says
she said with all her might you know like she's like comes from
her gut. It's really good work. Get on those kids early.
Whoo, Timmy. Very good.
Hey, let's take a quick quick break. But before we do, I'm
sorry. I do
want to go right after this. I want to bring this up. But you
were talking about PBS and NPR? Yes,
yes. I think I think I heard some violations, by the way.
Yes, I'm hearing him all the time. Now telling me I'm going
to play a KQED little little bit that was on one of their shows
is PBS TV. And tell me that this is not call for action. Okay? My
name is kaki. I'm a teacher and I am KQED.
Donate your car and help pay for the programs you love to watch
on KQED. Are you a fan of masterpiece? Can't get enough of
Antiques Roadshow. Never miss a night of the PBS news hour, call
1-866-573-3123 or log on to kqed.org/cars to schedule a
pickup. While you're there. Learn more about the tax
deductibility of your donation. That's 1-866-573-3123 or
kqed.org/cars. You can trust on KQED.
Now, okay, I know what the argument is gonna be I said,
Well, this is them collecting money. This is like a donation
when you're donating a car instead of money. But you know,
they're not doing this. This is a front for some car collection
company, one of those companies that grabs old cars, and it's
just a front to front is phony. And then that's a call for
action. Give them your car. Yes,
that is what is not allowed. You are not allowed to have a call
for x you are not allowed to say something is the best. And I
didn't know you're gonna bring this up because they always have
this lumosity.com for the brain. The brain games. Er, yeah. And
they do say created by the leading scientists which would
be you legalization violation. Exactly. And it's so sickening.
It's every 10 minutes. Data control and what people don't
know they and they get suckered into believing that they're
there people like you, people like you. And that's okay. We on
the other hand, have nothing to promote if we say something as
great as because we actually love it. And we say something as
lame as because we don't love it. And the only thing we really
do love is the people who help us produce this program and I'm
going to show my school by donate to no agenda. Imagine all
the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun

that possible?
We have too many Rosicrucians that I know of. You never know.
I just like it when someone says hey, you changed my life You
made me feel better. That's what I like.
Well, I think it's I think but what I liked when they say we
were not taking a different view of things, so we just don't
we're just not fish in the water getting hooked on every stupid
thing that comes along and some of this stuff is pretty lame.
Yeah.
A lot of face it. A lot of it's
lame. Motion. I watched the shows in the morning and these
bobble heads bobbing Yeah, yeah, at every stupid thing that comes

any tech news?
There's no new phones. Right? No, there's no tech news. I hate
to there's no new phones. And no, Apple hasn't made an
announcement so
well, then I'll have to talk about something boring. It's not
tech news. Geez,
let me have something in my clip list here that
we need to talk about the podcasting patent. The
developments in this? Oh, yeah. Yeah, sure. All right. Well,
we're going to be hated again because we're the only guys who
seem to have our heads on straight about this. I think I
have some, although it's appears less than less some validity to
talking about podcasting and the viewer once known as the pod
father, I still am but people on the streets still call me that
from today. That that's
only in Texas. Yeah, Jesse the pool boy. Yeah,
he calls me. He calls me the pod father. He's also 18 Yeah, the
old pod Hey, Oh, man. Hey, Oh, man. So we were quite I
certainly was quite adamant that the first of all that this this
lawsuit or this suit that was brought by personal audio
against a number of outfits that they were trying to protect
their patents that they do not feel they actually qualify as a
patent troll. Although there's the reporting on this is so
atrocious, even Ars Technica, it's just so bad. People do not
do the work at all. They these are the actual owners of of the
patent who are who have brought suit and then we find out that
personal audio dropped their suit against ace broadcasting
Adam Carolla what is it? What's the name of his his LLC?
I forget I don't know curl of broadcast. Oh, it's
it's like something weird like Laurits or something some
something I don't know and the kind of stupid because and what
they say in a in a note there's I say there's a we've
investigated and there's no money to be had from from any of
these outfits, so certainly not from Corolla, so we're dropping
our suit. However, we find it interesting that Adam Carolla
continues with the it's not a countersuit. It's counterclaims.
I know something about this because I've been through this
and they, they say, you know, he is raising money now to fight a
fight that is that doesn't exist. And we feel he's only
doing this to raise money for his own personal gain and to
have material for his show. Now, the response as expected from
the people who continue to send him money, and, and who are
supporting the David versus Goliath story is As expected,
hey, they're backing away, they're afraid and the big man
is gonna go kick their ass. So let me put some sense into
everybody about what is actually happening on the 10th, the 14th
of July, the parties entered into arbitration. And that means
that they were trying to work out a deal. And the deal I
presume, was going to be let's just all back away from this.
And of course, money has been spent on lawyers. And it's, I
remember my MTV lawsuit against Viacom, it wound up costing me
hundreds of 1000s of dollars to essentially settle out of court.
They did allow me to start a company but the lawyers got the
majority of the money, which is always the sad thing in all of
these cases. The there is no countersuit per se, there's a
counterclaim for lawyers fees. And as is typical with this type
of lawsuit, to for the judge to declare the patent invalid, this
will not happen. And there is only one course of action that
should be taken. And I urge Adam Carolla to send the money he
raised fine if he wants to deduct his lawyer fees or
whatever, and I'm sure it is 100 150 to $200,000, the rest of
the money should go to the EFF who get no ink at all who are
going the proper route to invalidate a patent with a
patent review process. The judge has agreed that there is a
possibility the patent can be overturned, it is the only
correct course of action. Any other course is in my mind the
borderline criminal, to take money and give it to lawyers to
pretend that they can have a judge overturn a patent it
really in in a case that that is not didn't it's not going to
happen this way. It's just not. And although I don't like the
Electronic Frontier Foundation, the way they also jumped on the
patent troll bandwagon. Because as much as it pains me to say,
the patent was awarded, and the way it was awarded, just like
one click ordering, which if you have done on your website, you
have to pay fees for that. mp3 is not free, you know, if you if
you have a player, you have to pay a license fee, there's the
patent system may be broken, that someone is able to patent
this type of quote, unquote, process or invention. But it is
you were doing no justice by focus. And it's probably meant
to be this way, by focusing on a so called patent troll who
actually is not a patent troll when the system is broken. And
it's now boiled down to Let's kick the trolls ass instead of
look at how stupidly broken the entire system is. And even EFF
has used the troll mean, which what does it even mean really
is? Are these guys really ugly people living under a bridge?
No, they are going through the proper process, a very expensive
process to do. And they're moving forward. They're getting
no ink on this at all. And this process will take the schedulers
out. It'll take up until December of this year, before
they've even done all the discovery. And I think there is
a very good chance that the patent the 504 patent as it's
known as will be invalidated. Apple has already is already all
in they were very smart by paying a license fee for
Playlist. Also, no one's really talking about that how ludicrous
is it in this world that the concept of a playlist can be
patented, and Apple lost. But they were very smart. And they
said, Okay, we'll pay this $8 million, but it's for any other
version of your patent. So when podcasting came out, they didn't
have to pay anything extra for Adam Carolla to say that there's
a gag order, I see no gag order in the in any of the piece any
of the documentation. I think that's a lie. He's just being
very quiet. And I don't like that people are being hoodwinked
for this money to essentially go to a process, which I don't
think can win. And
here's the interesting thing. I mean, he's a publicity guy. He
knows how to do it. He's, he's smart. And if he actually he
could actually bring attention to the EFF, like the great hero
and give the money to then take that pot of money and give it to
them. And they'll spend it, you know, they're there. They don't
steal money. They don't they're not a bunch of guys, they owe
the thanks for the money and then pocket it, they will use it
because they got a lot of lawyers, they will use it to to
really fight this thing. And he will look like the good guy.
Yeah, I mean, he couldn't take credit for the whole thing. He
can still take credit for it. If the EFF does it because he
essentially financed it.
So that's what that's all I want to say. Really.
I think it'd be a smart move. on his part I do what you suggest
no
but I'm but whenever I suggest that the hate the hate what yeah
but people hate me. Why do people yeah I don't know it's it
is how people
are in about wow this is going you seem to have a background
you know this better You're just jealous
that you're not number one on iTunes like he is. You're just
jealous that you didn't patent it all of this stuff. Oh my God,
I don't give a crap
spoon. Why do they care? It's like these, these Apple fanboys
and I write something which is fairly mild about how I think
the AI time is not going to be a winner because it's just a you
know, another gimmick and
I don't even think it's gonna see the light of day. Quite
honestly,
everybody's the cuantas apparently make manufacturing
them Oh, okay, well, that's possible. So I mean, everybody's
got it lined up is going to come out but whatever. Whether it
goes anywhere is another story. I think it will initially
because all these guys Obi Wan it'd be kind of cool to have one
I suppose for a while your shows like The Nerd especially if you
have a Google Glass and the watch. Of course, it looks like
you know, I'm a chick magnet.
So anyway, so leave me out of it. Everybody, please. But
definitely listen to that. I mean, I'm all for stopping this
this ludicrous process, and I'm all for and Adam Carolla getting
his lawyer's fees back and you know, he could be a little more
transparent about it, whatever, that's fine. I don't care. I
really don't care. I just don't care. But I think EFF is and
they asked me very early on. And I said, Look, I don't like how
you speak. I don't like you using patent troll me. I want
you to be a fucking professional lawyer and go after these guys.
But don't try and sucker me into something. And Dave wanted the
same. You were like now and we're not going to I don't want
to be a part of that. Then we never never would intended any
of this to ever be patented. Because if there was a patent on
it, there was something that was restrictive. Podcasting would
have never taken off. The whole idea is to have it open. So of
course, you know, you've got idiots trying to grab money,
fine, but let's do it properly. If not, and not just give money
to lawyers. It's throwing money away. Nothing against lawyers.
As you know, I'm a groupie, but it's just man, please. All
right. Another junior high end. Yes. The end. The another thing
that we've been playing that is this is from the animated series
of Archer, I guess. And I don't know what came first. Oscar
them. This is a two parter. And this is an animated series.
John. Are you ready for these?
About nine months to get out of the can?
Well, this is an old an old theme. Nothing that is unknown.
It's based on fact in a way but the nuances are so no agenda.
You just have to I've never seen the show. But these clips nail
it.
Okay, so later I know it's a little sooner than we want it
but bracing dropkick? Roger that. What's operation dropkick?
Well, the endgame has always been for us to invade San
Marcos. So hey, Donna, we got a carrier group in the Gulf right?
Wait, if you were going to invade San Marcos, then why have
you been selling weapons to call her own so he could find the
rebels? Which is you?
Well, technically they're mercenaries from Honduras and
Guatemala. But yes, yeah. airstrike naval bombardment
amphibious landing home and Gila Calderon needed weapons to fight
the rebels but he didn't have money to buy weapons. He only
had cocaine. But Iran was like no way I can show late so I ran
Oh, sorry, the rack. No, I ran. Doesn't matter who anyway to buy
the weapons we needed to monetize the cocaine.
And what do you think a toggle button and click number two?
Go. We've been selling cocaine for the CIA so they can buy arms
from Iran. Did we at least free some hostages? No, this was
about our annual budget. We don't spend it this year we
can't get an increase next year.
That's a good show.
What show is this Archer Archer here.
And amidst the we kind of predicted this we needed a lot
of noise and distraction. In fact, we could probably call
this the distraction we know
distraction of the week, regards the brand new transparent air
fares act of 2014 which includes a nice little hike by the TSA
for their per passenger fees for each individual airport to have
which goes straight to the ticket for it's actually its
segment that you fly. The transparent airfares Act which
is just so appropriate the way they mentioned that now allows
advertising of the base fare. So here's an example round trip New
York $99 And it does not have to include do taxes, baggage fees,
handling fees, that can all be in a small disclaimer. And that
is now it's going to be codified in law, that this will be the
transparency.
But essentially the law itself has allowed for consumer
deception. Yeah, you it legally. It's now considered this is how
Elizabeth Warren is going to get into office.
Let me read it to you and you'll you'll shoot yourself section so
there's a lot of there. So this bill or this act amends existing
code title 49 to 49. Yet it says amended by adding the following
ich it shall not be an unfair or deceptive practice under Section
A for a covered entity that's going to be airlines to state in
an advertisement or solicitation for passenger air
transportation, the base fare for the air transportation if
the covered entity clearly and separately discloses a the
government imposed taxes and fees associated with the air
transportation and be the total cost of the air transportation.
For purposes of paragraph one the information described in
paragraphs one a one b shall be disclosed in the advertisement
or solicitation in a manner that clearly presents the information
to the consumer. You know, this is this is like the, like the
car commercials we have this little little fly by it's more
than fine print. And with respect to an advertisement or
solicitation for passenger air transportation that appears on
an internet website. This isn't law people,
because the government that why the government is encouraging
deception, by law actually almost requiring it. Yes. It
would go any other way. If it appears
on an internet website, the information described in
paragraphs 101 B may be disclosed through a link or a
pop up as such terms may be defined by the Secretary that
displays the information in a manner that is easily accessible
and viewable by the consumer. IE, they don't even have to put
the fine print on the same page.
Oh, so here's what here's how this works. Everyone turns out
their front pop up, so there's no pop ups. Yeah, so you have
the simplest kind of pop up that is always blocked by Firefox.
And that's where you put the information and you get a little
message just a pop up you wanted to know No, I don't want it
click Yep. And
the covered entities in this case, our air carrier, including
an indirect air carrier, foreign carrier, ticket agent or person
offering to sell tickets for passion to air transportation,
or a tour or tour component that must be purchased with air
transportation. So this can even go for tour components, which
could be your cruise after you fly there. Yes, this is indeed
complete another tax eruption. It's not it's not just a tax,
it's going into commercial companies. Pockets this has been
lobbied for it is it is just disgusting to see this and to
cover. For all of this. We have the TSA, who come out with a
just fantastic idea. John, we could have come up with this.
We're going to issue a reward of $15,000. If you can figure out
how to make the checkpoint lines, which of course are meant
to save us from a terrorist the checkpoint line move faster.
Let's listen to a report about this heading through
the airport security and is isn't exactly what you would
call fun but the TSA is holding a security checkpoint challenge,
as well as the security checkpoint challenge
to offer you some cash to play along. King fives Jake
Wittenberg is at SeaTac Airport to show us how you could help
get lines moving faster. All right. Even at SeaTac Airport,
things can be frustrating. The lines pile up quickly for the
morning and afternoon flights can be frustrating for a lot of
folks. So now the TSA wants to offer $5,000 to the person who
comes up with the best idea of how to overhaul all of this.
They've got several categories now general screening premium
precheck they have passengers in wheelchairs, crew flight
attendants, how do you merge them all
together? We asked a lot of you passengers about whether you had
any ideas for the money.
I wish I did. That'd be fabulous. But no other than
maybe not him take his shoes off pre boarding pre check and pre
security screening. Yeah, I
get tired of having to undress everything, but I don't have a
lot. I'm not traveling business this time. So with family, it's
a little slower.
I hate taking my shoes off. We don't want to walk around where
people have been walking around and who knows what out there.
Over the past year, TSA has tried to make things run
smoother with fewer restrictions and the new precheck system
which is a kind of express lane for your frequent fliers. For
this challenge, though, TSA wants more than just a rough
sketch. They want a legitimate concept that can be used in
airports across the country, and evidence that the concept could
actually work. Now let's Two things here, one, notice how the
precheck has gone from, you have been pre screened, and we have
checked you your background, we have made sure that you are not
a terrorist to your frequent flyer. This is a very big
change, best idea gets put to use $5,000 for first prize, but
they're offering up to $15,000 for other prizes as well.
Second, third, fourth best ideas to overhaul the system. The
deadline for you is August 15. So again, we're not looking for
a back of the napkin kind of thing. The TSA wants a
legitimate whether it's a mathematical configuration, oh,
better ways to shorten the lines and make things less frustrated.
Okay, I have an idea. Do you have an idea?
No, I got nothing. I got no idea. No idea. I got an idea. Go
back to the old ways.
Here's my idea. Build a bigger theater. I'll take my $5,000
Thank you very much. All right, let's
build a bigger as his spotlights. Coming down, I owe
one Mary Morgan.
Man, I had one more thing I'd like to do before I'm done for
today. We promised you this is
all right now under the latest in the battle for NSA reform.
Senator Patrick Leahy introduced new legislation today that puts
sweeping limits on us surveillance through the USA
Freedom Act. Here's Leahy announcing the bill this
morning. This is a debate about Americans fundamental
relationship with their government about whether
government should have the power to create massive databases of
information about US citizens, or whether we are in control of
our own government, not the other way around.
This is Bill 1460 to 97 pages known as the Leahy bill, that
everything about it sounds good, doesn't it?
Oh, yeah. Yeah, I like the title to the title is good. This
Act may be cited as the Uniting and Strengthening America by
fulfilling rights and ensuring effective discipline over
monitoring act of 2014. It's an acronym John, for USA Freedom.
Nice, really, they paid someone a lot of money for that one. And
as you might guess, this is anything but freedom. In fact,
this is there's a couple of things that I something I need
to ask you. This is this is all about what the NSA or FBI or the
DNI or any of these security agencies and communities can or
cannot do. When it comes to assessing a threat and tapping
phones, requesting records, etc. And they specifically there's a
new term which it's not defined in the document, which is rare,
because typically when they come out with
they have definitions, what's the term tangible things,
tangible things,
and everywhere, they're talking about a record, a call record is
emergent. So the first section I look at is emergency authority,
emergency emergency authority for production of tangible
things. And I'm not sure why it's tangible things. And
there's no definition in the document about tangible things.
Internet of Things is the first thing that comes to mind but
tangible things. So anyway, if there's the central remember
by touch, palpable possible to touch, so how can we treat it as
fact real or conference led tangible evidence possible to
understand or realize law that can be valued monetarily,
tangible property, something palpable are concrete tangibles
and material assets. Tangible adjective, capable of being
touched or felt having real substantial substance a tangible
object capable of being clearly grasped by the mind, substance
substantial rather than imaginary tangible evidence.
Having a physical existence Corp Corp court, corporeal, tangible
asset, often plural a tangible thing, a tangible thing or
asset?
I don't think any of this is tangible unless you print it out
and put it in someone's hands then it's tangible. There's a
reason for it. We don't know why lawyers, lawyers AppStack will
probably have an idea. So the thing I looked at two things,
and specifically section 102 Emergency authority. This is the
overriding. So this, basically everything is senseless because
of this clause emergency authority for production of
tangible things. notwithstanding any other provision of this
section, the Attorney General may require the emergency
production of tangible things, if the attorney general can a or
if the attorney general a reasonably determines that an
emergency situation requires the production of tangible things
before an order authorizing such production can with due
diligence be obtained. I don't think our Attorney General is
reasonable. In fact, I think he's quite unreasonable and he's
just a man and he can make up whatever he wants to make up. So
this document is useless with this clause alone, he also be
reasonably determined that the factual basis reasonable
reasonably just reasonably what is what is the give me the
definition of reasonably John, please, since we're at it
reasonably, okay, reasonable, or reasonably
reasonable, reasonably determined?
He is, I'm gonna get a price for the book
reasonably determines.
Okay? Reasonable, capable of reasoning, rational or
reasonable person governed by or being in accordance with reason
or sound thinking? Being within the bounds of common sense.
There's our word
Oh, there it is. That's all we need. It's common sense it's
done. It's just common sense that he determines the factual
basis for the issuance of an order under the section to
approve such production of tangible things exists. C
informs either personally or through a designee a judge
having jurisdiction under this section at the time the Attorney
General requires the emergency production, he has to tell a
judge and makes an application in accordance with this section
within seven days. So basically, did you know all these, I don't
have to tell you what the other sections say about when you can
be spied upon, because the Attorney General can determine
it's an emergency by common sense. And then we have section
105 liability, protection. Liability, no cause of action
shall lie in any court against a person who a produces tangible
things or provides information facilities are technical
assistance in accordance with an order issued or an emergency
production required under the section. So any company like
Apple was you know, has a backdoor into your phone? They
can receive an order an emergency order.
Little aside so Obama was coming into the city, and JC buzzkill
Jr. has an office across the hotel where Obama was coming
what hotel does
he stay in when he's gone in
this case they were blocking off the Intercontinental but we
don't know what hotel he was staying at. Okay, but
intercontinental was gonna have a meeting or something was right
across the street. That big blue one that big new one we ate the
lunch there once that the rest I'm going
to have to make a trip to San Francisco. I need to I need to
come and hang out. We need to have lunch. Yeah, I don't know.
You don't know.
Yeah. Okay, come on out. Anyway, I was I would like to go to
Austin. I haven't been there for a couple years and I'd like to
look around you are welcome anytime but then me anyway so so
he noticed that all of a sudden all the iPhones in the office
were draining.
Wow. And you do this at the end of the show?
Well I didn't think of I could have talked about this a couple
of like a couple of shows go by forgot about it. But he says
they were draining like crazy. As if all the speakers they all
been turned on or whatever he says there was nothing you could
do about the batteries. You just go on. And of course they're
apples so you can't take the battery out. And so these things
were just on doing something he didn't know what he's he is you
know, he put it in aluminum foil or some Wow, it was like right
across trees is all that apparently they said he talked
to one of his friends that was a few blocks away. And this was
everybody's phone not just his right so everybody in the office
but he talked to some guys a few blocks away and it wasn't their
phones weren't being affected by whatever it is that they were
doing
and no other platforms were evaluated such as the androids
or that anything else?
No, they all the phones are being tapped. Right? But you can
turn your Android you can take the battery out of your Android
you can't do anything about your iPhone will not only will wait
because you get a dead phone in like no time.
So according to this bill, no company shall be liable for
providing this this access. Even if there's no order for it other
than the Attorney General has used some common sense. You will
also want to be held liable if you otherwise provide technical
assistance to the Government under this section, or to
implement the amendments made to this section. And of course
Section 106 compensation, the government shall compensate a
person for expenses incurred for production of tangible things.
Here's Nice.
S, reasonable expenses, I guess just as reasonable common sense
expenses as common sense for the emergency order.
Yeah, man hour or two man day, whatever it is. of top men.
Yeah.
And then there's in the of course, I did look at the
definitions, address. A term address means a physical
address, electronic address, such as an electronic mail
address, temporarily assigned network address, or Internet
Protocol address. So even your MAC address, it's a beautiful,
beautiful document with a fantastic name, which is just
going to give the government the powers they really truly seek
the FBI is all over this thing with all kinds of
indemnification, because they of course are allowed to actually
listen in, and then
it's been a pain in the ass for the FBI to have to go get
warrants on every time they wanted to wiretap. This is so
much easier and man did you lousy, you got more donut time?
And then there's the national security letters have changed in
they're not going to call them MSLs anymore. It's prohibition
of certain disclosure. In general, if a certification is
issued under subparagraph, B and notice of the right that's in
this
bill, yes, sir. Yes, sir. Crap.
Notice of the right to judicial review and no financial
incentives for the banks. In this case, the receives
requests, or officer, employee or agent shall disclose to any
person that the Federal Bureau of Investigation has sought or
obtained access to this information or records under
subsection A. So they can say an emergency, they can call up all
your financial records, which is also insurance records. It's all
kind of stuff and no one is allowed to disclose this. Crime
and the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation designee
the drug, the only thing that will be allowed is the CEO of a
an entity will be allowed to say yes, the the federal A's have
requested some information. And that's about it. And it's a lot
of legalese. But not hard to read. And it will all go through
the FBI. This I think is telling a new that the FBI and maybe
it's just lay he is the FBI guy in, in Congress
definitely not the CIA guy. So it's not the NSA yet, but the
FBI and the NSA are in bed. I think this is part of the big
battle between the agencies might
as well be called the FBI snooping act of 2014. And when
you see the light, it's marked up in the shownotes anyone can
go and take a look at it. When you see the the non disclosure,
it's just it's reams of of text.
And this is all good news. Nice way to end the show, too.
Yeah. What do you want? You want dead children on a beach? Or do
you want to hear about to the FBI?
Well, that's up to you. It sounds like the same
well play us out with something fun then they boy give us well,
it's nice. Give us some I want some fun. I
gotta go okay, well on this get on with something that's
meaningful, not just fun. Let's play the douchebags on Meet the
Press. And it's very disappointing to hear
journalists be so one sided about marijuana.
I'm sorry. Okay. Yes, I get it. Please. Why don't we tackle
something that that few people can agree on here at home? And
that's marijuana. So the New York Times this morning with a
major statement. Elite editorial calling for the legalization of
marijuana by the New York Times. Here's a portion of the
editorial board piece this morning. There are no perfect
answers the time's right. So people's legitimate concerns
about marijuana use, but neither are there such answers about
tobacco or alcohol. We believe that on every level health
affects the impact on society and Law and Order issues. The
balance falls squarely on the side of national legalization
that will put decisions on whether to allow recreational or
medical production and use where it belongs at the state level.
David Brooks, you've you've weighed in on this debate before
I disagree with him on the larger issue. I don't know what
they've been spoken up there. They go to the office
I'm sorry. Oh, that was such a good one, John. Anyway
I have two basic issues. One, the effects on the teenage brain
really are pretty significant. They acknowledge that it is
real, and I just don't I don't think we can sanction say adults
fine, but if you're 18 you can't do it. That's just not going to
work. I don't think second sanctioning activity that most
of us mature out of most of us, Asia. The way we
stop stop most of us when you somebody would come on say most
of us, meaning us, us. Us. Yeah. Sure out of it means he was a
pot smoker.
Yeah. Isn't everybody? Well, he
was definitely a pot smoker. And so you gotta be the height of I
mean, he could have been in jail to this day. Because
not tonight. No, only if he was black.
Well, that's a big mistake. Definitely be in jail.
You gotta be black, smoke some
pot cracy with these people is being on. It's just
unfathomable. even play it, I want
to spend our minds. But and here's something I do agree with
my colleagues on. I could be wrong, marijuana. And so I
wouldn't mind some state experimentation. And really,
what the editorials calling for is federal legalization to allow
some states from leeway. So even though I'm opposed to it,
throwing it to the states.
So what are we learning from the States? Yeah,
we're learning from Colorado that at least in terms of
revenue, there's a great deal of revenue, right? 180 4 million,
something like that. Also, at least these early statistics
show that there's a slight decrease in crime. I think it's
about 3%, year over year from 2013 to 2014. But it's still
really early. It's true.
I think when marijuana legalization is a budget issue
seems a lot of tough.
We can make a lot of money on tobacco also. But we don't want
that I'm with the tobacco problem with letting states
experiment but I think for states to decide to go the full
legalization route is a problem precisely for my mommy reason
that you know, you can say that it's okay for adult what
everybody knows who has teenagers like me, access to
alcohol, the fact that alcohol is legal may increase to
alcohol, making marijuana readily legally available, will
increase there and my kids are at home laughing
at me. All right, go put a helmet on your kids put the knee
pads on make sure they always feel like they're a winner. And
don't let them grow or smoke a plant lady, please.
It is a vast social experiment. We do not know the outcome
except we do evidence is that you lose if you use marijuana as
a teenager regularly eight IQ points. And I don't know about
the rest of the table. But I don't have I don't have a to
lose
your will. That's Yes, fact. Yes, for sure. And finally she
said finally she said something rap eight IQ points. What does
that even mean? What does that even mean? Sure it's not nine
study show? And is that from one dose? And what is the dose?
Alright, everybody, we have shown you the hypocrisy of the
mainstream media we have gotten to the bottom of I think expose,
expose some of the things you will never hear about on another
show anywhere. Certainly not if they have if they have
advertising, and we have bared our souls and expose ourselves
to ridicule as we do twice a week. We do that and and it's
part of the risk we take. And it takes I think, a lot of balls to
do some of the things we do. I would agree with that as people
do say ugly things to us and give us no recognition awards or
credit. And that's
we're a baby. We get support from a wide range of folks who
have a clue.
And that is yes, through divorce.org/and A please support
us for Sunday show and we will be back until then coming to you
from FEMA Region six here in the capital of the drone Star State
in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry and
from Northern Silicon Valley where I remain seated. I'm John
C. Dvorak.
We'll be back on Sunday right here on no agenda
that is Joe Biden and thank you for taking the time to listen.
Adios mofo I'm a rule follower, right. What do you do? Are you a
rule follower? devorah.org/n A
