A threatening note in the broken English. Adam curry, John C.
Dvorak and Sunday December 7 2014. And time for your gizmo
nation media assassination episode 676.
This is no agenda
celebrating Cinco de Mayo in December from FEMA Region six
here in the capital of the drone Star State, Austin, Texas in the
morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley where we say WTF I'm John C,
Dvorak.
Buzzkill.
WTF? What?
No.
Just WTF in general, you don't have some kind of exclusive
there in northern Silicon Valley.
So I've got my charts and I got my I got to punch holes in these
things. And then I got to put it in a binder. I've decided to
take fabric dyeing.
Okay. Um, game fabric dying, all right, ever dies is like tie dye
will tie dye is is I guess would be I would have to experiment
with that. Of course, I mean, you could you pass it up. Yeah.
But no, I was thinking of just some new ideas. I think the dye
the world of dyeing has been dying.
Yeah, because why bother with any of that, where you can just
get all your stuff from China?
Not anymore. You can't. You can't, you can't. So the number
one color for this spring season, it was determined by
these guys at Pantone. And so they call this thing Marsala.
And it's kind of a brownish Maroon. Not very exciting. But I
think it would make a good male shirt. If you could go buy one
right now. And you can't
things you think of as why can
I have this shirt right now, before all there's been
released. But you can dye your own. You get a nice white shirt
and some of this dye and then you get the you get this colored
shirt. You wear a modern
colored shirt, and then you're going to wear this around town
to wear it around town.
If you want it okay. All right. You can't now I can't I can't
buy that. Oh, no, it's an outrage. It's all you can get as
blue and white. So you're telling me
that the fashion colors are not determined by Vogue magazine or
by any of the old couture designers, but by the guys at
Pantone? Yeah, that's fascinating. I had no idea.
I mean, there's always the helmet guides. And I bet you
there's a lot of people who would disagree. The fashion
industry responds to Okay, well, here's the colors we've got to
work with. Really?
Yeah. Well, I'm going to I'm going to look into this I'm not
so sure that's how it works.
Oh, you have to because you because the fabrics have to be
out in time for the season to begin. So somebody has to call
the colors. And so these color guys had panto. We're calling
the colors and so they call the color
Stopstopstop. So hold on a second. This is very
interesting. explained to me this meeting and where's it held
and who was in the room when they quote call the colors?
That's a destined unanswered question. Thank you. I want to
know No, it wouldn't be probably fashion people. And I would
guess fabric manufacturers and all the people in between and
then they sit around and they call the colors and they base
them on last the last season they get four rounds of these
colors. And so they base them on usually last season or the last
quarters colors, and they try to rotate them every every quarter
and they don't vary. If you look at the at the Winter colors from
2014 and the spring colors from 2015 that are coming up, which
includes Marsala which is the shirt I can't get Yeah, this is
myself. I want one.
Now most importantly, what is the hex code for Marsala?
The hex I can get it in okay handsewn Marsala and they'll
give you the number and they know they give you the Pantone
number then you have to find a converter to get the hex code
because I think I would just like a shirt that is white that
just has the hex code on it should be is hashtag 955251 and
then I will be the most fashionable guy. You go.
Are you look like a prisoner?
I like no, I think that's it is the alter Ultra Uber hipness.
Here it is hashtag 955251. That is the hex code for the color of
2015
Marsala
Marsala. I have a question for you, John. And this is one that
when I Mickey and I were talking about this this morning, and I
went online to look it up. There's so much controversy over
this question that I knew there was only one person who can give
us the definitive answer to the question should you refrigerate
your Whether or not
well that's a good question. I will tell you the approach that
you can take you if you don't mind if you're going to use the
butter within a week you don't have to refrigerate it.
And should it be kept in a crock as we do?
Well if you would that keeps us a little lower than room
temperature there's actually some devices that have the duct
keeps the butter upside down in a water bath. Oh, this
supposedly does something but no you don't. It the problem with
butter is that it will go rancid like any other oil based product
but it takes at least a week it doesn't so you can refrigerate
it if you want to prevent it from doing that but it's
actually harder to work with
well when you refrigerate it the butter actually becomes a
destructive tool you can't you try to put some some butter from
the fridge on your bread now you're toast no is going to
destroy it and make a hole in it
what kind of what is your temperature of your
refrigerator? I
don't know it's it's in the butter thing so you'd think it
would well you're probably
using a butter that has a lot of fat content it with with a high
melting point. If you give us a French butters generally
speaking are that Irish gold that you were getting Costco
I'm sorry a French butter you know what I think we need to
have a list
you're getting get French butter have appropriate but now carry
gold I'm sorry carry gold, which is a butter that the Irish and
Irish butter that's very popular around the country combined in
most stores and Costco has a deal on it is a very soft butter
at refrigerator temperatures and it wouldn't record your toast so
much. Well then that would be the butter is very good. Some
butters are very hard and some are soft, softer. Yes. So it
doesn't make any difference and do whatever you want. What do
you leave in my head that hard butter you're bitching about?
I'd leave it out?
We do. I was just asking what what you do?
I leave sometimes it depends on how much butter I expect to go
through over the week. I generally
do you plan this plow plow through a lot of butter. Do you
plan this in advance? It's see it's Monday to Sunday night. Let
me
I'm gonna eat a lot of butter. Butter today. There's leave the
butter out or be easier to deal with
a today is a national Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, December
7, when we were dragged into World War Two. I haven't seen a
lot about this on the on the on the on the telescreen today. No,
we're trying to
I'm trying to forget that or I don't know, because we're a
military empire. Why would we try to forget that but we seem
to be extolling the virtues of the moon. I don't know what it
is. I don't get it. Maybe trying to make it less obvious that
we're a military empire that right? Well, okay, well, the
president of the US just none, no, no, we're
not going to really get it. Otherwise, we're gonna have some
sort of event every day that was military. It's funny. I didn't
intend football games does play 10 versions of the national
anthem. I didn't intend to get into this this early. And maybe
I'll ask you if we should do it in our way. But there was a
foreign policy institute seminar that showed up on C span. And we
have Robert Kagan interviewing John McCain. This is almost like
the Super Bowl of douchebags, these two guys and McCain is a
he's set to be the number one muckety muck in in the new
Senate. And he just doesn't let I mean, he lays out the whole
plan for our military industrial complex. In this session, you
want to hear this. So when you want to do we do this now?
Are you kidding me? Of course I do. I miss this. And I'm very
glad you got some clips.
In fact, there's so much that I say I got wanted, I got five
clips, sick five clips, and I had to stop. I could get I could
do 100 clips from this thing. Here is Robert Kagan. Now Kagan
is of course married to Victoria Nuland, who was responsible for
the F fuck the EU, EU and the Maidan Square and the overthrow
of Ukraine. Right? These are all Neo cons, who I think now are
Neo liberals, whatever it is, they are always on Neo liberal.
You know, it's very similar Kagan and his brother Fred
project from New American Century, which was all about the
black sheep 911 where they called for new Pearl Harbor in
the in the penal act document. If you'll recall,
yeah, well, they got one.
They sure did. It sure did. So they're all about the
verbalizing. And here he is into introducing first his buddy and
McCain and just listen to just the the camaraderie of
douchebaggery.
I'm supposed to introduce Senator McCain and I've never I
can't imagine something that's more unnecessary. But I do enjoy
it every time I get a chance
to enjoy Oh,
wow, those guys are having way too much fun. I
can't think of anyone who has devoted himself more to
America's interests, America's values, and the values that we
share with free peoples all over the world, obviously, in his
military service, but also as I would say, one of those people
who genuinely deserves the term statesman,
statesman, men, it gets so good. This is such a mutual jerk off
this is great, it's great. Hayne
is the least partisan person I know when it gauges totally
full. And
I love that he isn't he the most partisan at all, though good
looking
comes to American foreign policy. He has strong views, but
he voices those views, regardless of who is in power.
He knows more about the world than I do.
He's responsible for more crap in the world
than anybody else. I know. He not only knows the world, he
knows all the people who are around the world, he travels in
a way that makes my head spin
on the American taxpayers dime, sure he's traveling in style.
That's all because of his incredible devotion to America
and American principles and to the world order that America has
upheld since the New
World Order, the Second World War Iran. So
it's a great pleasure and honor to have you here, Senator. And
as you all know, or should know, Senator McCain in the next
Congress is going to be taking the role of Chairman of the
Senate Armed Services Committee. There you go.
You'll be Chairman of the Armed Services Committee.
Yes, that means we're all screwed. And,
of course, there's a color budget? Well, first question out
of the gate,
what are your top priorities? What things are you going to be
focusing on? What
could it be? What could the top priority
over the next year,
which means what? How do we, how do we do more money? We have to
end the sequence. Yeah.
Thank you, Bob. And thank all of you for having me today. And
these are most interesting times, obviously, and we have a
lot to talk about first, Bob, can I jerk you off for a minute
express my admiration for all the work you have done? I love
your work,
man. I really respect what you're doing in Hollywood,
right? Have you ever in Hollywood and you see two actors
meet each other? Hey, nice to meet you really respect your
work, man. Which is means fuck you what it means. I really
respect your work over the
years. Many of you may know the brain so the family resides and
his wife Tori Nolan. Oh, there you go, continues to serve with
great distinction under Republican and Democrat
administrations alike a true really outstanding servant of
our foreign policy and our nation so it's gonna
get us all killed.
Is he talking about the same person? I'm thinking of he
talking about this woman dropping off laughing?
The EU, that is the fine, fine, upstanding person known as Tor
at Toria Nuland Toria. If you're in the color Toria
administration's a, like a true truly outstanding servant of our
foreign policy.
That's how we work with foreign policy. Hey,
you, you fuck you.
I'm great. And our nation. So I thank you, Bob. I think the
first thing we really need to address is sequestration impacts
of it.
All right, what would number to be on the list? John? I'll take
$500 Jerry budget for $500.
We've already we've already done the we've already done the
money. What would the next policy be that is high on the
agenda. But you got to deal with Russia? Well, in a way, but if
you take it into more Iraq if you take it into more meta level
where we can bring in all kinds of money slurping programs that
go into the UN that go into invisible programs.
I don't know what it cyber.
A lot of my colleagues are old geezers, like, listen to this
outside, but
listen to what he says. He's going to say because we're all
old and decrepid we're easy to fool then Buying stuff we don't
need.
A lot of my colleagues are old geezers, like me. And they've
never been involved in this aspect of warfare. I know about
aircraft carrier
on a computer. I know
about the F 35. I know about a lot of things. But the cyber
issue continues to evolve it it involves daily or weekly or
monthly. And so I would say that cyber is something that I really
have to work together cyber Corker Richard Burr, and I have
a very close and Lindsey Graham have a very close relationship
for years. Listen,
these are the guys write it down.
And let's make a point of the dimension. The Lindsey Graham is
so obviously gay. It baffles me that he hasn't been outed in his
it is very conservative state.
There are entire weeks that go by that I don't think about
Lindsey Graham being outed.
Well, I don't like to think about the guy at all. I think
he's a douchebag. And why McCain and him are so tight. They must
have made some sort of gentlemen's agreement.
Listen to that. Let's write these names down because he
McCain is now telling us who is going to be running. Okay. What
are the policy it comes?
Richard Burr
Richard Bob Corker, Richard Burr, who's Richard Richard
Burr. Yeah,
it was Richard Burr. Bob Corker. I know
him. He's a dude who's
Richard Lindsey Graham's and other one. Richard
Burr was Richard Berg. northcliff Senator from North
Carolina. North Carolina Carolina. Yeah. Okay.
And I have a very close and Lindsey Graham and Lindsey
Graham.
Oh, almost forgot my boyfriend have a very close Kelly Ayotte.
No she's not relationship for
years committed.
Kelly did not choose not
to working together fertile will be intelligence. Bird will be
intelligence write
it down. Let's look at who's going to be running our
intelligence. This guy is Richard Burr. What the most
recent thing he he posted on his website burr applauds house
passage of beach access legislation, and this is the guy
you want doing intelligence seems like he's got a lot of
important things on his agenda.
When she will be appropriations.
Lindsey Good. His bench will be doing the money appropriations,
he's the money guy.
And a Corker will be the Foreign Relations Committee. Whoa,
is this going to be great or what? He's nothing but
douchebag Yeah, look into this bird guy first.
Now we have let me say she's doing intelligence
Emmys. He'll have he'll be able to lord it over everybody else.
Okay, so he's this guy from all this guy. Yeah, I've seen him on
the show. He was a C span must have some set him up as he's
been a senator since 2005. In North Carolina, went to Wake
Forest. Children Taylor and William Burr.
Burt the burr family, it goes back to the Civil War. So he has
a lineage and he's been on the Armed Services Committee,
finance, education and labor. He supports Second Amendment.
He's got all kinds of important things he does. For example, His
latest press release in December 4 2014. US Senator Richard Burr
applauds the house passage of HR 4435, a bill that includes
legislation he authored he authored, known as the
preserving public access to Cape Hatteras beaches. You go after
successful bipartisan negotiations, they finally get
down and go to the beach. Thanks to this guy.
All right. Now we continue. This is where it got interesting.
On by the way, I'm looking at his web pages, set his Senate
webpage, the senate.gov page and on his page, there's a picture
of him and a picture of some old battleship. Like there's a
military picture on his face. So this guy is a he's Yeah, he's
a total MIT guy. Military Industrial Complex. Yeah. Now
here is where McCain really became interesting. As he he
said, the main thing he needs to do now that he's going to be in
charge of the military industrial complex, is he has to
look at how how the money is spent. The word is I think, is
it procurement. Things procurement, is the term and and
of course, he's going to talk about how it's crazy how these
contracts are put together. You will actually say something
horrible at his wife about his wife in the meantime. He's
taught he sounds really good and nice. Of course, I'm not buying
it. Just listen to this.
I can't go to the American people with a straight face and
say, we repeal sequestration now without making another run
another run at acquisition reform, acquisition reform.
Okay, lately we built an air craft carrier My friends call it
Gerald are for the $2.4 billion cost overrun. And it is now
having more cost overruns associated with it. I asked the
chief of naval operation and a hearing operations and hearing I
said, who's responding who's responsible for this? He said,
No. He said, No. So now we have everybody's responsible. So
nobody's responsible. That's the classic bureaucratic response.
We need to fix it. But he's
probably pissed off because that was money he wanted in some of
his projects. Yeah,
we need to fix it. Everyone is probably
sorry. I mean, he's right. She, of course he does. There's no
sense of responsibility on any of this stuff. So he's making
some
sense, go down the list of failed programs, F 35, triple
the cost that it was originally estimated, I don't have to tell
you, it's got a it's got to stop. It's got to stop. And it's
got to start with fixed costs, fixed costs contracts. Right
now, in all due respect to my friends in the defense industry,
they lowball the number so they can get the contract. And then
of course, it escalates and goes and gets higher and higher
than what I'm thinking he's doing right here is messaging.
His friends in the defense industry saying, Hey, you gotta
go through me. I think that's his positioning. Now, is that
what you all do? I
don't have any thought I don't have any thoughts on this. But I
would, I wouldn't argue against that possibility. Finishing
up, it's got to
stop. My contractor does the same thing. So I
don't understand why. But yeah, if your roof leaks, the hire guy
to come and fix your roof on a cost plus contract. My wife has
done that.
Wow. No, BJ for you tonight. And then finally, this has
got to think those two have been in the same house out of their
seven for the last a year.
You don't know. They're they're a strange combination
combinations that go on final piece. Now? I do. I believe he's
doing this. He really believes what he is saying here. And I
think he is inadvertently explaining how well certainly
the American people are controlled by the telescreen as
it comes to the convincing of the American people about the
danger of ISIS. ISIL is whatever you want to call it. And the
campaign that was used to convince everybody that we
needed to do something about it, and he has a number, he has
figures he has data. And of course, in this regard, I'm
speaking about the bogus beheading videos, of which, at
least the ones that the President and Mr. McCain here
have deemed as outrageous that these were these are fake. These
are just not real, the headings, the headings that take place,
but the ones that were presented only in a brief stills and just
description, rarely shown at all on television, and even taken
off social media and other websites, and all come from the
same place from the SITE Intelligence Group, who I
believe are probably responsible for producing them. It has
worked. This is the campaign and he's proud of it. greatest
frustration to me for a long, long time was the carnage and
genocide that was taking place in Syria. The picture smuggled
out by Caesar had no effect. I mean,
they just slipped that in. Do you remember who Caesar was? No,
I
don't. I don't remember
Caesar was the guy who testified, and with a hood over
his head, because he had smuggled out pictures of these
of this horrible genocide taking place in Syria. And this was
supposed to convince everybody that this was this was taking
place, but the guy wouldn't identify himself. He had this
codename Caesar, and he had these pictures with this
picture. It didn't say anything at all. So that was their first
try that I guess McCain was a part of,
and genocide that was taking place in Syria. The picture
smuggled out by Caesar had no effect. I mean, it was stunning
to me. And
I had it all set up, though it was opposed to
was stunning to me that the public doesn't buy.
Caesar didn't work with the Caesar. Frustrating, they
should have changed his name to something other than Caesar.
Deep Throat kind of name is what they should have done. But
you're right. Yeah,
Caesar had no effect. I mean, it was stunning. And frustrating,
and frankly, heartbreaking because I knew these people that
were dying.
Firstly, no, these people
died because they were all part of the same actor studio, I
guess,
in Syria, Syria, but the beheadings had a huge effect on
America. Can public opinion you and I could show you a 30 point
swing in American public opinion about support for addressing
ISIS and appreciation of the threat we face. Now, whether
that should have been the reason or not, it was at significant
work. And I believe that Americans are now much more
concerned than they were before that happened. And
so wait for this transition. So it worked. 30% Swing, he can
show us numbers, and Americans are much more concerned now. And
so
American public opinion is very much leaning towards greater
more significant action be taken. But the American people
need to be told.
Yes, John McCain,
you should they need to be told
and told what to do.
That brings me right, you know, I don't know what your how far
you're gonna go. Well, I'm kind of a me too. I something I did
not expect to throw at the beginning of the show by any I
know we're gonna Yeah, we're going a little fast. I know. But
let me do it anyway. This is, there's a lot of clips here.
There's five of them you can have you don't have to have them
all depends on how interested you are in this. But this was
off of PBS NewsHour, they had MARGARET WARNER interviewing
some guy who just did a book on Putin, and how he uses them. And
how he uses the media to manipulate the dumb Russian
public.
Russia and this is the this is the classic where we it's the
same thing with the with radio free liberty in the Voice of
America. It's really is.
Hello, cattle. This is the pot calling
in anyone who doesn't see that, that we have as many programs if
not more and better funded than RT.
Well, besides just the RT thing, the if you listen to this guy,
he is oblivious to what's really going on, which is that the
right end and you and the irony is that he even points out
because he worked in the Russian TV business that the Russians
are copying us directly in. But he never said he never uses the
words I would use which is trying to play catch up right,
in turn in terms of using the media to manipulate the public.
But here's the introduction to the whole little segment, I
tried to cut these down as much as I could. This is Putin
Russian TV clip menu.
For many observers, his speech was classic Putin using
television to assert his view of reality to his own people and
the world. Putin's use of the medium is the subject of a new
book. Nothing is true and everything is possible by Peter
Pomerantsev, a Russian born British writer and television
producer, he returned to Moscow to work in the Kremlin's bass
television apparatus, creating Russian reality TV shows chief
foreign affairs correspondent Margaret Warner, I spoke with
him yesterday.
All right, so they bring this guy on, he starts telling us you
know how, and Alex will skip to and go to three. He talks about
how when first thing Putin did was when he actually this is a
good clip, because it talks, it makes it it creates a legend of
Putin as some dream, who didn't know what he was doing. And then
they ended up B roll is fantastic. They got these hot
Russian women with clipboards and then guys with the earpieces
talking to themselves and all surrounding Putin telling him
how to talk telling him how to behave as though he's an idiot.
And he's apparently a stooge to, to the power some other powers
in Russia, and he's just a dupe, even though they don't quite say
that late part two.
So Peter Pomerantsev, thank you for joining us. You describe
television as the nuclear weapon of politics and Russia. Yes, it
takes on. It's at the core of the political system. I mean,
you have to imagine a country that is absolutely huge. It's
such a sick for the world.
Imagine him talking about the United States, when he's talking
about Russia, and you get the exact same message,
you can just replace every just replace Russia with the USA. And
also sociologically very varied. So you have sort of very
contemporary towns like Moscow, and then you have near feudal
villages, which have a completely different sense of
reality, and the only thing that brings them all together is
television, television is at the core of the present political
system. You say
no, at the center of all of this.
Is this Amy Goodman?
No, no, this is News. This is Margaret Warner.
Is she going? This is this is so frightening at some but how
could this happen? How could How could an entire country be
enslaved politically to the television? I don't how could
that ever take place the prime
that yes, inserted himself as performance artist. What do you
mean?
Peter was no one. He was this great guy. So impressive. To see
Famous for wearing horrible seats wherever he went, nobody
would notice him in meetings. He was a no one. And they took him
and created him a you know, today, oligarchs who control TV,
and PR, TV producer guys were very close to the KGB. It's this
incredible mix of secret services, television producers,
they made him and sort of a hero for all seasons. So he can be
the president who is the ideal lover, the ideal match or guy,
the ideal businessman, and this was all done through television.
And the first thing that Vladimir Putin did in 2000, when
he came to power, was to get rid of the oligarchs who control
television and take it over.
This is this. This is Peter Pomeranz, Pomeranz Zeff Yeah.
Wait a minute.
We talked about this guy. I think some time ago. Yeah. And I
don't remember,
I think was a white paper.
He said, Debbie, I'm guessing State Department. It's got
written all over this report. But what, but it's still every
single analysis that he's doing applies more to us than it does
to him, to to Putin. And it's like, again, that's just all I
see. Is Putin trying to play catch up? Right. And it's right
down to the hot women. Yeah. And, and the joke of it is that
this guy, I, it, this is the most insincere possible
reporting book and analysis. Do they really expect the public to
buy this without seeing it in themselves? model? Let
me think. Yes.
At the end of clip two, yes.
Yeah. Let me just say, John, this is, this is more proof that
you can we can actually have this be broadcast on television
saying that those evil Russians, certainly Putin are using the
telescreens to control the people. Where are people instead
of once in a while, once in a while protesting about, you
know, 28 militant suspected militants who are really
innocent people being killed for every drone attack? It no one's
protesting that we're all going to do a die in for, you know,
for a local issue in Ferguson in New York, because the telescreen
is telling you to do it. Yes. So. So there is no, there's no
way back, of course, we are just going to tell everybody, you
will believe the Russians are using television for propaganda.
And this is no propaganda.
Exactly. And it gets actually better in the next two clips. So
play three,
and a very young age from London, you got a chance to get
in on the inside, you describe this one organization that
essentially said controls everything on television,
entertainment and news.
That place actually the Kremlin, there was always a telephone to
all the major TV channels, but all kind of coordinated by the
Kremlin itself.
But you started out as a producer for one of the
network's in that big apparatus called T N T. Doing reality
shows it sounds harmless sounds apolitical enough,
around 2000, TV started making a lot of money. And they wanted to
get producers from the west to come and make their version of
The Apprentice for Housewives of New York. And that's why they
needed people like me, you have to understand the Kremlin is
very, very aware that they have to make TV entertaining
nowadays, their aim is kind of synthesize political
manipulation, and entertainment. And so very soon I found that
even entertainment had the sort of very insidious elements of
social control.
Okay, here's you want to use one. Here's the funny thing,
John. This is the guy. We talked about his report, the menace of
unreality, how the Kremlin weaponized his information,
culture and money. And he is from the Institute of modern
Russia, which is by itself directly connected to the United
States State Department. Yes. So the okay, as long as we all see
the craziness of it,
it's it's outrageous, especially since the last few shows we had
that clip of the of the Asian provocateur saying we were
slipping this information into the scripts in Hollywood we bet
300 You know this than that. And then we had the clip of the of
co2 turning into poison gas, all entertainment, you know,
designed to, to for social control, which is what we do
best you want
to catch it, like give you a new one that I was just given social
control quickie little intermezzo by the television
show Elementary, which I do not watch to hand off to you. He
kept the real one for himself. This real one.
This map has traces of mold on it, which prove it was in a
drawer in the 39th Street Library for decades. It also has
your fingerprints all over it.
I'm guessing you fly a lot. Because the trusted traveler
program you gave your prints to it interfaces with our system.
Yeah.
And we know that's been Oh crap.
Yeah. When you put your finger down on that. Yeah, checked past
go through trusted traveler program. Okay.
Yeah, it never ends. Well we go to Part Part Four where they use
a new word to describe the public. By the way, by the way
this part four is the reason is very much like what McCain said,
politics has become like a reality show. So you have
debates on Russian TV, they're completely sort of scripted from
the Kremlin. So you have a puppet, right wing opposition, a
puppet left opposition, they kind of shouted each other. And
the result is to make you feel oh my god, Putin is in the
middle and kind of lets up Putin. Instead, the opposition
is mad people become very malleable, the population
becomes sort of almost incapable of critical analysis. So that's
a much sort of deeper form of manipulation.
This has much broader international implications. This
isn't just a problem for Russia. Well,
increasingly, criminals would think about information in terms
of basically as a weapon weaponized information to
distract demoralize the enemy to be used as a decoy in a military
operation. So now you have a huge international sort of
broadcasting aren't being set up by the Kremlin, whose aim is
really to sort of do psychological operations against
Russia's enemies, whether that's Ukraine or increasingly,
the West. And we've certainly seen it play out in Ukraine.
Well, in Ukraine, it's been it's been total I mean, that's really
been you think about this war in Ukraine. So there's a small
propaganda that is
so great, where we literally have our students from the State
Department being given citizenship and Ukraine to run
the finances as finance minister yet Oh, yes. Horrible. Russia is
all over that propaganda in Ukraine.
Man Oh, man is yes, complete. They've really done the job
there
is, you know, the the adage, as long as the lie is big enough,
and you keep repeating it often enough, it becomes true.
Well, that's, that plays out constantly, as we've noticed
that over the last seven years of this show, I want you to get,
I want to finish these clips. And then I have something that's
the last is the last one. Now, here's what happens. Now the guy
completely loses track of reality here, and then they
create a game and he creates nonsense, which he then throws
into our propaganda machine so everyone could go, oh, that's
what that explains it. All. This explains it all. This explains
why Putin so popular and it's kind of a non sequitur. But when
I heard this, I went, Oh, brother, this is ridiculous,
dear freedom of information, which is something that we value
very much to do disinformation, let's say Russia Today, after
the MH 17 crash spits out 10s of conspiracy theories about why it
might have happened. The idea that the Ukrainian students
President Clinton's personal plane and they shut it down, but
you know, they're not doing this out of a search for truth.
You're not doing this out of a passion for investigative
journalism. They're doing this to kind of muddy the waters as
quickly as possible.
And one of the great mysteries in the West is why as the
sanctions tighten around Russia, as oil prices drop, as Russia is
headed into recession next year, Putin remains wildly popular.
And Russia.
Love is always very close to fear. So when 84% of Russians
say they love that Amir Putin, they might almost be saying that
they fear him.
Wow, this is good. This is very, very good.
What bull crap this is great.
Let's, let's look at a couple of ancillary issues surrounding
this one, which will you put in the newsletter was this meeting
between the President of France, Francois blonde, and Vladimir
Putin and they just were were hanging out meeting together in
Moscow and I picked up a document here. This is from the
this is the official site of the President of Russia. And they
have a trend they have a transcript of the conversation,
the public conversation that Francois, alarmed and Vladimir
Putin had. And this is you have listened to this. So welcome,
says Vladimir says President, colleagues, thank you for taking
time. On your way back from Australia. Very happy to see
you. And Alon says, Mr. President, thank you for the
welcome. I was just flying over Moscow and I decided to make a
stop here to discuss with you the important issues concerning
the Ukrainian crisis. And let me get this straight. He's flying
in his in his jet. Hey, what's that down there? That mr.
president is Russia. Take me down let me land here. He's
really saying I just think I just thought I wanted to step
off. We believe that Russia and France can find necessary
solutions to the issues we have. And Putin says, Oh, you are the
initiator of them. Meeting in Normandy in order to solve the
problems you just mentioned. And Alon says, Yes, I would like to
thank you find the time to meet with me today. I know it was not
planned in advance again, you just dropped in. I understand we
have very little time. I heard your address several hours ago.
I think we need to get rid of the barriers in the walls that
might divide us. And then there's the journalists and this
by the way is two documents that were sent in by there is again,
Brian the gay Crusader who has now become the the the the
Russian Bureau of the no agenda global intelligence network. And
he has some very good pieces they're marked up about amongst
other things the mistral deal and I think this is what a lot
of this is about
making bureau chief he he's the Force
station chief. I think so we should call them Oh yeah. Right.
They some stations do.
Now the biggest problem with the EU and with Russia is this
French deal for to miss drawl. Battleships, are they aircraft?
I think battleships,
their aircraft carrier aircraft carriers, helicopter carriers,
in fact,
so listen to this, this q&a with Vladimir Putin question from the
press was a question, obviously, from the press who has a gun to
his head to ask these questions clearly, because you know, it's
all it's all puppet theater. Was Ukraine, the only subject
discussed today and from the President? No. We also discussed
bilateral relations settlement in Syria Iran's nuclear program,
we discussed a whole bunch of topics. So the meeting was very
constructive in substantive question, Mr. President, did you
discuss discuss the mistral deal? ghadimi. Putin? No, we
didn't discuss it didn't even mention it. There's a contract a
legal document, we proceed from the fact that it will be
fulfilled by didn't ask questions, and President Orlando
has said nothing about it. But if it is not fulfilled, we will
have no special claims. Of course, we expect to get back
the money we paid under the contract. But otherwise, the
situation on this issue may develop and we will treat it
with understanding. And this folds into a house resolution
that was passed this week, December 4, House resolution
758. And this is this minus will be called the fuck Russia, we're
going to kill everybody resolution. That didn't sound
right in the house. But there's a resolution is really don't
mean that much. But it's filled with at least how many pages
this thing. It's like 30 pages 19 I'm sorry. It's filled with a
lot of the whereas whereas whereas. So whereas the Russian
Federation is subjected Ukraine to a campaign of political
economic military aggression, whereas this whereas I'll just
pick up a couple of the warehouses. And this comes back
to the if you tell the line it's big enough and you repeat it
often enough it becomes fact. So this is the this is a resolution
which means it is resolved it is agreed to mean much at this
point, but as agreed to by the House of Representatives and I
believe it will, something similar will be agreed to by the
Senate, whereas Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 and civil
airliner was destroyed by a missile fired by Russian backed
separatist forces in eastern Ukraine resulting in the loss of
298 innocent lives.
Now, did that become a fact that well,
this is this is not discussed. Whereas the Russian Federation
has protected the Assad regime and backed its brutal assault
against the Syrian people. The cities are now accepted as fact.
Whereas France agreed to sell the Russian Russian Federation
to Mistral class amphibious assault ships in 2011, for $1.7
billion, whereas Russian possession of these chips would
be a destabilizing addition to the Russian military, which
would likely have boosted its ability to invade Crimea.
Was this resolution written up or passed before or after? Oh
lon dropped in?
At think one day when did Alon visit let me see, he was just
like yesterday, the day before this will be Wednesday. So
pretty pretty much on almost the same day, depending on what the
French
intelligence would know about this. This came up there now
that all of a sudden this deal the French need this money, well
listen to him. So he was gonna be cleared. So that whole lot
went in there. And they Yeah, they didn't talk about it. But
they may disagree. There was a friendly visit. Well,
reasonable.
So let's continue the document. And then we find out so Putin is
saying, Well, you know, we have a deal, we got a contract. If
you want to break the deal, you got to give us our money back
and you know, screw you with your ships. Whereas given the
Russian invasion of sovereign territory of the Republic of
Ukraine and Crimea and elsewhere, and it's dangerous
behavior throughout the region, France decided to suspend
delivery of the Mistral class of warships to the Russian
Federation. And here it comes. Whereas purchase of the two
Mistral class warships by North Atlantic Treaty Organization
organization countries ie NATO would expand NATO's capabilities
resolve Frances legitimate concern over the cost of the
ships and eliminate the potential threat to countries in
Eastern Europe, bingo Boom shakalaka isn't that nice? We'll
just have NATO by them. Rather, whereas
another one of these big businessmen are we,
the Indian givers, whereas the Russian Federation that by the
way I want whereas, and another one that you find ones, which we
know it did not work this way. Whereas the Russian Federation
invaded the Republic of Georgia in August 2008 continues to
station military forces in the region of Abkhazia and South
Ossetia, and is implementing measures intended to
progressively integrate those regions into the Russian
Federation, including by including by signing a treaty
between Georges Abkhazia region and the Russian Federation on
November 24 2014. Whoo, this is not entirely correct. As we
know, the aggression came from Georgia first, before Russia
retaliated. But now we have it just in his resolution, and it's
its fact. Now there's other things to look out for on the
horizon where the Russian Federation continues to station
military forces in the transmis mystery a region of Moldova in
violation of the Express will of the government of Moldova and of
the OSC II the Organization for Security and Cooperation in
Europe. to Moldova would be on deck I would say. This is my
favorite. Whereas on November 11 2014, the commander, US
European command and Supreme Allied Commander of Europe,
General Breedlove, stated that Russian forces capable of being
nuclear are being moved to the Crimea peninsula. capable,
capable,
yeah, well, anything they do it they're capable.
Whereas According to reports, according to reports, according
to reports, the government of the Russian Federation has
repeatedly engaged in the infiltration of and attacks on
computer network to the United States government, as well as
individuals and private entities for the purpose of illicitly
acquiring information and disrupting operations, including
by supporting Russian individuals and entities engaged
in these actions. accusing us of Russia blatantly of committing
cyber attacks were. So far the only admitted cyber attack is
Stuxnet, which was
ours, whereas also the newer one, which was also ours.
Whereas the political, military and economic aggression against
Ukraine and other countries by the Russian Federation
underscores the enduring importance of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization, NATO as the cornerstone of collective Euro
Atlantic defense, and they just have to bring this up, whereas
the United States reaffirmed its obligations under the North
Atlantic Treaty especially Article Five which states that
an armed attack against one or more of the treaty signatories
shall be considered an attack against them all. This is just
sad man. Sad this is this is what are
part of the again of the those two games or three games going
on at the same time. I should mention that there was a TED
Talk to find out about this yesterday that I guess somebody
stole the electronics out of this the mistrial specific,
there's a bunch of gear in that. I didn't know. I stole it and
then the French are blaming the Russians for stealing the gear
makes no sense that the Russians are gonna get the I think
they're our intelligence people took the gear so they can get
the encryption part of it figured out. Uh huh. So when the
gear goes back in whether it goes to Russia or NATO, we'll be
able to de encrypt any communications going on or off.
Like the Russians wouldn't the Russians wouldn't put something
in there that was their own.
And so you end up with this this interesting situation I got to
do
these talking points. Who do you just want to there's a couple of
more we might want to mention I want to
break a little obscurity because we remember we've talked on this
show numerous times about how anyone tries to you know Qaddafi
decides he wants to go with some new methodology for the gold
dinar Yeah, the dinar thing, and he's dead. And there's other
guys Saddam Hussein
wanted to trade oil for in euros. Yeah, he's Bad, Bad idea.
Bad idea.
Well, the Russians have never been overt about this. But there
was a very interesting little back and forth on Max Keiser
show which is not its Max Keiser is Max Keiser but this little
and I had to cut his way down because they started off with a
budget but the surging dollar and how and he's talking to a
gold bug, gold gold gold, but they brought this little this
little issue up this is the Russian energy and gold clip.
Listen to this.
You know, there was a A wargame of the Defense Department at the
John Hart Johns Hopkins University's Institute of
Applied Sciences a few years ago, Jim Rickards participated
in that war game. He played the Russian hand in that war game he
postulated the Russians could basically controls the world
financial system, if they simply would require gold and payment
for their energy exports. That card is
he saying if they required gold and payment for their energy
exports, it was recently reported that the dollar volume
of Russia's gold exports recently one recent month was
equivalent to the amount of gold that they imported, haven't
they, in fact, gone onto a de facto gold for energy repayment
system right now? Well,
I don't know. Maybe Maybe they have under the under the table.
I've read that. You know, the Russian if you look those two
numbers up their equivalents? So isn't that thing and by proxy,
they haven't made that statement overtly.
It's possible.
That would make sense then why Germany, the Netherlands now
Switzerland, of course, now Belgium, all are repatriating
their gold. And of course, Germany was given nothing. Now
screw you, Germany, and Belgium being the the most recent one to
say oh yeah, we're gonna repatriate or they have a lot of
gold, by the way, Belgium more than I expected. And they're
saying we want it back. From from the Fed, how much is it
here? 122 and a half tonnes. So is the Netherlands Yeah. 227
tonnes of gold for Belgium, just by itself?
Well, if the war game is correct, and then they played it
out, and this is what they determined. And then we have
this coincidence that Max Keiser discovered about the gold going
in and out that you didn't have the energy, this could be the
basis for the whole thing.
It would make a lot of sense. And it would make sense that
these European countries in particular saying, Yeah, we want
some of that back right now, as a hedge in case, Russia really
starts to do this and rushes in the catbird seat as an
expression of, of old. Totally. And, in fact, Juncker, the
drunker came out, and we might as well go through all of this
now. Where Putin has said, oh, you know what, you know what,
screw y'all, Bulgaria, you can't do the salad stream. Now.
Bulgaria was visited in June, by
John McCain, June 8. Oh,
he visited Sofia and bluntly warned Prime Minister otter
Sharkey over the danger of proceeding with South Stream.
And you'll recall, there was a run on two different banks. This
was total blackmail, financial blackmail, against Bulgaria.
Bulgaria really could not comply with the deal that Russia
wanted. And then Vladimir Putin by himself perhaps or whatever,
said, You know what? Screw you guys, then we just won't do it.
We'll we'll send it into Turkey. We'll make a new energy hub.
Will this I think really screwed everybody up. And here's Juncker
he comes out to talk about John Claude. Juncker, but I call him
Juncker the drunker and just to listen what kind of an
incredible douchebag this guy is. He starts talking, and he
doesn't feel like it's quiet enough. So it's gonna start
whistling at people and waving his hands for them to shut up
the boardroom and dumb mess. You
have a hangover from the whiskey.
I had the great pleasure to receive
I should see this video, the the Hey, Hey, fuck up. And here is
his explanation about South Stream. And how Oh, no, no, no.
This is no please. This is not over. No. Well, we will fix
this. We will take care of our friends in Bulgaria to make sure
South Stream happens because we don't want to be freezing
here to help our Bulgarian family members
and now your family members. We never Juncker comes and says
he's a family member, you should put a cork in your butthole
we'll make sure that you found we launched and used to the full
in solidarity with Bulgaria and Bulgaria will do its best to use
them to stimulate growth and improve the lives for Bulgaria.
Now you recall
that Junkers main mission of his so called third leg of the
European Union is his 350 billion euro Fund, which he's
raising with 6 billion and somehow that becomes 350 billion
with his magic pyramid trick. And that will be used for
infrastructure. Now we know It's there to help, among other
things, Bulgaria, and it will probably cost about 6 billion
for Bulgaria to get this going, which I guess maybe that'll be
the multiplier for all of this big fun that he has in mind.
People. Energy met us and mental of common concern to all
Europeans. Bulgaria is not alone. And the Commission and
the European Union are not observers. We are with Bulgaria
in these difficult times. We want energy to flow to Bulgaria
and to the whole of Europe and will not accept any blackmailing
on energy matters.
Now he's not even necessarily implying Russia is blackmailing.
No, McCain. Yes. And McCain was doing it because he wanted the
Nabucco pipeline to be used which is now pretty much dead in
the water. But that that's that's his guys, Azerbaijan and,
and Tajikistan and all everything coming through
Georgia, all the PA that everything that they've been
owning, they've been running the buko pipeline was what was
supposed to be all about, and, and that's why he went into
blatantly blackmail the Bulgarian Prime Minister,
Bulgaria is not a small company. Bulgaria is a great nation, and
it has the whole fuel behind it. We'll be working closely
together on the investment plan, I present it recently to ensure
that energy in the connections are a key element in the new
wave of investments of 315 billion euro we want to trigger
as regards South swim. Such the European Union and Bulgaria are
working together to solve the outstanding issues. These
outstanding issues are not insurmountable. We should do
what is best for Bulgaria and thus best for you. Boyko and
myself, we'll find a solution together. South swim can be
built. The conditions have been clear, since a long time with
nothing new the ball is in the court of Russia. We are ready
and preparatory works is on the wave
unbelievable it's like it's like laying on your back with your
legs in the air. Oh Putin don't do that please bring in cells
and it's our doing once again will not are doing specifically
John McCain's doing
you know, these fruit the on McCain side? It seems to me that
we don't have a united foreign policy, which is everyone's
always believed that of all the weaknesses Obama has foreign
policies at the top of the list. And it just like did allow all
these freelancers I mean McCain's a freelancer let's face
it, he's been one for years. He does his own thing based on his
own. He's the man who leads isn't what he what he expects to
get out of it as the maverick doesn't care about the country.
He's the maverick. And then you got the Kagan's who are like all
of a sudden taken over the State Department doing things they're
away. While there's idiots Valerie Jarrett knows people in
the White House who supposedly run everything in the Defense
Department don't seem to have a clue about what's going on at
the State Department. In fact, we go back to a Hillary and
they're botched. You know, whoever came up with the
botching the Benghazi operation. At the same time as CIA things
going on. They can't even communicate that much. It's just
like a joke.
Yeah, yeah. And it's, it's sad. And if I were Putin, I'd be
screwed. The whole turkey idea is great.
Actually, the turkey idea may be better for him. It's a hell
yeah.
He gets to pass it on through Greece, which he already owns.
They've got the port of say hon, for the oil already set up, you
know, forget just the gas is Turkey is a perfect, perfect
ally for him. And we've just been letting Turkey do it.
It's already been shown that Erawan can stave off one of our
attempts to overthrow him. He has a gulag right Gulin Yeah,
yeah. And the gulaman guy is no good. No good. And yeah, so now
there's a little rearranging going on little deck chair
rearranging going on before the
let me give you a couple more pieces from this house
resolution just to know what else we're working on. Whereas
the Russian Federation is continuing to use its supply of
energy is a means of political and economic coercion against
Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova, and other European countries. The
United States strongly supports energy diversification
initiatives in Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova, and other European
countries to reduce the ability of the Russian Federation to use
its supply of energy for political and economic coercion,
which would be use of gold. No longer use of American dollars
petro dollar, including the development of domestic sources
of energy increased efficiency and substitute Russian energy
sources with imports from other countries Hey over here is less.
Whereas Russian Federation continues to conduct an
aggressive propaganda effort in Ukraine, in which false
information is used to subvert the authority of the legitimate
national government, undermine stability, promote ethnic dis
dissension and incite violence? This is exactly what is
happening here promote ethnic How about racial dissension
incite violence? It's a global program. Whereas the Russian
Federation has expanded the presence of its state sponsored
media and national language across Central and Western
Europe with the intent of using news and information to distort
public opinion and obscure Russian political economic
influence in Europe. This is a complete campaign, John, between
the NewsHour on PBS between the document from this sub jabroni,
who was on PBS, and now this house resolution, it's all
written by the same people. It's all the same, the same thing,
whereas it was a two three punch whereas the Spanish expanded
efforts by unite United States International broadcasting
across all media in the Russian and Ukrainian languages are
needed to counter Russian propaganda and to provide the
people of Ukraine and the surrounding of Ukraine and the
surrounding regions with access to credible and balanced
information. I think Bill O'Reilly is going to be
broadcasting in Russia perfect whereas the Voice of America and
Radio Free Europe slash Radio Liberty incorporated continued
to present a minority market share in Ukraine and other
regions, region states with significant ethno linguistic
Russian populations. This of course, all needs to be
expanded. Whereas the United States international programming
to Ukraine and neighboring regions act of 2014 requires the
Voice of America and Radio Free Europe Radio Liberty
incorporated to provide programming content to target
populations in Ukraine and Moldova 24 hours a day, seven
days a week, including at least eight weekly hours of total
original video and television content, and 14 weekly hours of
total audio content, while expanding cooperation with local
media outlets and deploying greater content through
multimedia platforms and mobile devices. Bonanza are someone you
got to create some podcasts for these guys. They need it. Then
we have the resolve portion. I'll be done with this. So that
you have all this whereas whereas whereas fraudulent to
Putin sucks resolved, the House of Representatives strongly
support the efforts by President Poroshenko and the people of
Ukraine to establish a lasting peace in their country Sure. At
update adoption of policies to reduce the ability of Russian
Federation to use energy exports and trade barriers as weapons to
apply economic and political pressure and to end interference
by the Russian Federation, the internal affairs of Ukraine, of
course, it's okay for us to literally be running the
internal affairs of Ukraine, literally running them.
Good work nasty Russia, us, you know, 10,000 miles away, we'll
run a place for you just to keep it safe,
condemns the continuing political economic military
aggression by the Russian Federation by states that the
military intervention by the Russian Federation Ukraine is a
breach of its obligations on the United Nations Charter, clear
violation of each of the 10 principles of the 1975 Helsinki
Accords. Vi in violation of the 1994 Budapest Memorandum poses a
threat to international peace and security. It calls on the
Russian Federation to reverse its illegal annexation of Crimea
to end in support of the conditions of the Black Sea
Fleet stationing in the territory. Just go you know,
just take your penis and go away is what is being said here.
calls on the president united states to cooperate with United
States allies and partners in Europe and other countries
around the world to impose visa bans, targeted asset freezes
sectoral sanctions and other measures on the Russian
Federation and its leadership with the goal of compelling it
to end its violation of Ukraine's sovereignty and
territorial integrity to remove its military forces and
equipment from Ukraine, Nian territory and to end its support
of separatist and paramilitary forces. And then finally, calls
on as Congress calls on the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization, allies and United States partners in Europe and
other nations around the world to suspend all military
cooperation with Russia, including prohibiting the sale
to the Russian government of lethal and non lethal military
equipment. We're looking at you France. And oh, and yes, all
reaffirms the commitment of United States to its obligations
on the North Atlantic Treaty, especially Article Five and
calls on all Alliance member states to provide their full
share of the resources needed to ensure You are the collective
defense Hey, hey, pay up pay up tube you deadbeat euros. And
also welcome to the decision by France to suspend deliberative
the Mistral class warship and encourages is that the word
urges United States France NATO and other partners to engage in
consultations and consider all alternative acquisition options
for such warships that would not include transfer of the ships to
the Russian Federation. It's a document that is it's just one
of those you want to tuck it away, because you can take every
all the boxes off as they come by. And we just have a bunch of
war Hungary eight holes in the House of Representatives, at
least who have passed this resolution. And I find it I find
it outrageous what is being said here, not only just some of the
the facts that are being stated, which I think are dubious. But
literally calling Russia propagandists while putting
black and white that we need to propagandize back with the
number of hours we're going to be doing it. It should have put
in there and we will have hot chicks with dynamite legs
presenting this information.
Well, if it's a matter of the Russians doing a and run with
the gold for oil aspect, based on this Johns Hopkins war game,
and this is what we have to do. It's, of course,
it's a big deal. And I think though, we can
let the Russians you know, screw the world economy up by all of a
sudden starting to lord it over people. And they you know, it's
let's see what I mean. This is going to be fun to watch and
we're the only show that's actually following it from that
from that perspective deeper than superficial level and when
you have the news hours just coming out ringing the
propagandist guy from the State Department propaganda guide for
the State Department and have him spew oh man oh man, that is
just nonsense. Which is part of it to get the American public so
they get behind all this and they will just hate the
Russians. Which I guess the public can get into hate real
easy to do with football games.
We hate we hate our own cops right now. We we hate ourselves.
We hate wine and wine.
I hate myself. I'm bad from a privilege I hate everything's
hated myself.
It's brothers white attorneys myself. Just hate myself.
Well, why don't we recognize that I appreciate your courage
and want to say in the morning to you John C. Dvorak.
So apparently somebody sent in a photo of a London bus with an in
the morning bumper sticker on it. Really? It wasn't shocked.
Oh, I didn't see that. Cool. We need more of those bumper
stickers out there. I think Eric still has some. Anyway in the
morning to you Adam curry in the morning all ships at sea by the
way. Also the boots on the ground, the feet in the air, the
subs in the water and all the Dames and all the Knights out
there. And in the
morning to everybody in the chat room with the stream blaring out
let me check right now. What do we have? I can tell you we have
824 people on the streams. And probably close to that in in the
chat room. No agenda stream.com Thank you very much to our
artists. Now. We used art for episode 675. From someone who I
do not believe has been credited yet Matt's kestra Rudd and this
was I believe this was a an evergreen, was it not John that
we use here? Yes, it was an
evergreen, because we've been the art has been coming up
short. And we would we're trying to get to the bottom of it.
Yeah, to
seal the seams. There may be some issues some air I'm getting
information from some producers are saying that when they tried
to upload they get an error and they haven't been able to upload
so people may be just falling off.
Yeah, we'll, we'll get this worked out. We will. But we
really appreciate this work that our artists do. And we know that
good art equals good donations. Why not sure. But it is a fact.
So it
didn't equal them any good donations except to top heavy
ones. We have a lot of high end or more than $200 donations and
very few under that it's it's very sketchy, but let's thank
the people that came in for executive and Associate
Executive Producer ships starting with Serge g Q was
worth $50.69 I believe this came in over the wire I believe wire.
This makes me a baron like to be Sergi Q Baron of Maryland.

and be skipping over
Eric in Vancouver. We'll all Vancouver Washington was
pronounced differently. It's Vancouver, Washington and
Vancouver, Canada. 3333. And what units do always strikes me
as interesting is that Vancouver Washington is nowhere near
Vancouver you think be near each other because same name, you
know, on one side of the borders,
nowhere near it.
And the other side well, Vancouver, Washington is by
Portland. I need to de douching after being called out by Tyler
Fay a couple of weeks ago. We're proof that the formula works.
Which is what calling out people as douchebags and propagating
the formula and the formula work urges citizens to hit each other
in the miles and Paul each other douchebags for the good of the
nation. I also encourage listeners who are smarter than I
am to donate to the no agenda show. Just didn't know agenda
wiki was summaries of no agenda viewpoints on various topics
like net neutrality, so that the dilettantes like myself can
argue with people at dinner parties to close that. Are you
events? Sorry, to close I'd like to Jingle all the way into the
Christmas spirit with an Obama Biden Schwarzenegger cookie clip
I sent Adam
and Tyler Faye is turning 32 On this Sunday, so that will be on
the list. Well, those are typical. Give me one of those.
We do one package. I'm not giving you my cookie I cook it
down. Now.
You've got karma, whatever you
want. Okay, we'll do it. People are sending in their own clips
to be played. And I actually
had it ready to play this. Yeah, system works. The circle is
round.
Yeah, sometimes. Patricia hunt Worthington in Miami, Florida,
sunny Miami $250. She sent in a hammer of Art Basel. She sent in
a handwritten note and then also a type note. And I'll read from
the type. The note came on a card by the way, ice, which is a
very pretty card, and with a muted some sort of symbolic
meaning she discusses to the fearsome twosome. I've been
listening since March, I heard John on Twitch and just kept
trying to figure out what the no agenda show was. I bought a Roku
three based on his comments on twit, and then thought I could
find the NA s on the Roku as a TV show. I put in the name and
it shows up on the list of programs I selected but of
course I never saw anything. I thought I was doing something
wrong. Eventually I figured out it was merely a I have a few
days out and mostly listen now on Stitcher while I'm at the
gym. Sometimes I just sit home and listen. It took a while to
get used to the entertainment element of the show. But now I'm
all in.
It took a while to figure out it was really hilariously funny.
I watched almost no news anymore. But Do peruse the Wall
Street Journal I have ordered three copies of pot shards to
spread the message. That's great. That's nice. That's very
my 77th birthday is coming up on the sixth and I liked that fact
that she's 77 and she's fooling around with the Roku and been
the Stitcher and well and the gym. That's hope for you my
friend. Yes, absolutely. At the gym at the gym. At the gym. The
only thing I know the gym part. I can't
say one more thing like that. I'm going to have a I got a
spinners clip for you. Okay, my 77 bursts coming up on the sixth
on video on the sixth. Oh, you better put her on the list then.
Oh,
hold on a second. Patricia hurt Worthington? Is it her? 70 What?
7777 Hello, but it didn't have the widest range of listeners a
demo is just completely off the charts.
You could not find advertisers for this show.
No because we have everything from high school kids. Lots of
them. Yeah. to 7080 year olds when
it's her birthday. The sixth. So it was yesterday. Yeah. Okay.
Got it.
It's an auspicious day as it as it is St. Nicholas de and I have
some Dutch and German heritage. I want to spread the no agenda
message and ask for karma for grandson Nicholas and job karma
from my adult children and spouses. Of course I would love
a happy birthday to me and John's beef bourguignon recipe.
Keep on trucking through the minefield that has become the
daily grind thank you for all your work.
It is a depression what is it we kind of named for it to
depression stew the I think I've published it somewhere I'll put
it in the show notes to make sure Yeah, but the jobs jobs,
jobs and jobs Let's vote for job karma. There you go. Thank you
very much. Patricia.
Well actually be making depression stew tonight as a
matter of fact,
I think if you Google but that would be a term for searching
due to depression I think was slaves
slaves depression slave steward. So
here it is first hit on Google double dip depression slaves to
first hit top of the list.
At least they're doing their job as well they should. I'm
going to put that in the show notes right now even though it's
it is the top hit. So when you're when you're depressed and
you're a slave and you're hungry, and it's tasty, it's
super tasty.
And I made sure to cook it long enough. So that's a problem
people have only makes do they don't cook it long enough. You
got to cook until they actually and you can use the cheapest
absolutely go to Costco and get the cheapest cheapest giant
roast you can find is cheaper than stew meat. It's to me it's
like $8 a pound and you can buy this giant rose with no bone in
it for like 230 $3 a pound. And you just chopped that into
little chunks and you knew cook it for three three to four hours
and it becomes very tender. In
fact, if you look at the at the recipe five pounds of meat Chuck
steaks 1.5 cubes cheap is what it says right here in the in the
in the direction
yeah chuck steak is that actually is up is is is a step
up from the cheapest cut you can get out
if you want to make Adam's version. I just want to remind
everyone what happened. John had recommended a wine to drink with
the stew. A co do wrong 2009 Ain't 10 or 11 and I by accident
wound up pouring that wine into the stew instead of the the wine
I was supposed to pour into it
well, you always want to cook with a quality wine because just
concentrates its flavors. If it's crappy, then it'll just
taste concentrated crap.
Right. All right, onward. Onward onward.

will be a day if you've not contributed, there's going to be
something that happens either in your backyard, so geographically
or your field of expertise, and you will be able to chime in and
help us. And this really happens on a consistent basis. And there
was a report now I've been in touch with this particular
producer, Paul, for man a couple of years now. And also regarding
this case, we've had a lot of encrypted emails and stuff I
couldn't talk about while that while the while this was
pending. And this is a report from NPR, you may have heard
about this. And I just wanted to play this for you and then give
you the information from him and expose to you who is in this in
this process.
There was a setback today for the International Criminal
Court. The ICCs first case of crimes against humanity leveled
against a sitting head of state ended with a prosecutor dropping
all charges. Those charges were against Kenya's President Uhuru
Kenyatta. That case was supposed to show that even the highest
office confers no immunity from war crimes. In Paris Gregory
Warner reports on what went wrong.
In the end, it came down to evidence the prosecution had
asked for the President's personal phone and bank records.
It said that they would show he had a role in instigating and
funding some of Kenya's deadly ethnic violence seven years ago,
but the Government of Kenya did not turn over those records. The
court though had found Kenya non compliant could not make them
comply. While in lumati, of Kenyan NGO Mars group Kenya says
the judges in The Hague faced an unusually powerful defendant.
Typical war criminal Heroux Kenyatta is a member of one of
Africa's wealthiest and most influential families, he hired a
crack legal defense team. And outside the court proved adept
at using the Kenyan media and diplomatic meetings to exploit
growing anti Western sentiment in what used to be one of the
most reliably pro Western corners of the world.
Now, our producer Paul was the single joint expert for this
case, in the working for the International Criminal Court in
The Hague. And it was his job to retrieve these phone records,
which you just heard. The court says they never were able to
receive. And Paul says this is very strange. I don't understand
the accusation that the Kenyan government hadn't cooperated.
Time and time again, the government said that the Office
of the Prosecutor hadn't actually asked for the records.
And if they did, they should do it via the Kenyan courts. But
the court records show they never asked for them at one
point. They even accused our our producer Paul here of providing
cell phone evidence to the defense and not to the office of
the prosecutor. But as he was instructed as a single joint
expert, he always provided his reports and data to both sides
at exactly the same time through a Dropbox Funny enough, I
suppose a few rounds to go here. But he says despite what the ICC
claimed both in court and in the press, both sides were always
provided with the raw data and the reports at exactly the same
time. The problem is there was nothing there. So they just know
that he never gave anything. And what our producer Paul says this
whole thing it was never intended to succeed. The whole
point was just to show that the International Criminal Court
could indeed indict a sitting president. And they really had
no intention of any kind of conviction. They just wanted to
show that they could do that. And they're lying about the
phone records.
That means that this is messaging so they're up to
something. Now, would it be that is obviously never to indict
like George Bush or Obama for droning innocent civilians,
right. Or anything that is like, well, we don't recognize the
International Criminal Court. Right. Right. And we don't
recognize the court anyway, but they're not but they could still
indict someone doesn't mean if you don't regulate and I mean,
they can't be indicted. I mean, the truth. Slobodan what's his
name? Didn't you recognize? Yeah, he got indicted. I think
it's two. I think three I bet you they're gonna indict Putin.
Ah, well, Putin and Kim Jong on that you know, they've been
wanting to indict him on
whether there is a human rights abuses
that would they Robles play this because they're all you know, he
they can't keep this guy out of the news. So here's the Sony
Sony was hacked. Yeah, this is so stupid. Now here's the
showing that this clip is Sony bullcrap report it just made you
roll your eyes when you're hurting.
Sony Pictures Entertainment someone claiming to be with a
hacking group sent the email. Variety obtained a copy of the
email which warns workers in broke broken English that they
and their families will be in danger. Well, this comes after
the studios computer system was hacked last week, several movies
were stolen and the personal information of some employees
was released. There is speculation North Korea could be
behind the attacks. Sony is set to release a comedy about a plot
to assassinate North Korean leader Kim Jong
Is this called promotion people
yes promotion obvious and then but I liked the way that I liked
the touch of just throwing in a little bit for propaganda
purposes to make you think it might be North Korea which just
wasn't I'm sure right. broken English a threatening note in
broken English Yeah, so these guys can go in and make this
major hack and kind of bring all this very funny memos and stuff
out of the Sony off the Sony computers. But it has to be the
but but their threat is in broken English as if they
haven't got anybody in the government there they can speak
decent English. Okay, fine.
I'd like to I'd like something else about the emails apparently
and one of the emails me say this is from his internal
emails, quote, there's a general blah blah as to the films we
produce. Although we've managed to produce an innovative film
once in a while like social network Moneyball, the girl the
Dragon Tattoo, we continue to be saddled with the mundane
formulaic Adam Sandler films. Let's raise the bar a little on
the films we produce and inspire employees that they are working
on the next social network. Though nasty for Adam Sandler
the
opinion that they want to get rid of his contract or piss him
off or something because it's just like, it wasn't right.
I like his movies, and they always make money. They always
make money even if they're duds like this, like blended was
considered a big flop, but it's made money. He's made his money.
Yeah, I think most of his movies do make money
and they're cute. I mean, sometimes there's problems with
him. And the idea is always the same. But you know, that's what
you get. That's an Adam Sandler movie. Yeah, so
franchise a franchise you can crank out movies? Yeah, he's not
gonna do a you're not gonna see an Adam Sandler blockbuster
problems I'm doing. I'm reminded of the story that was told by
Peter Guber when he was like running Sony. And they had the
board it was on his case all the time, because they'd come up
with five movies and they, and they'd say, they'd have to name
the movies and movie A did pretty well. Movie B was a huge
hit. Movie C was a piece of shit and Movie D didn't do so well.
Movie broke even. And boy, we're always looking. I'm saying I
don't we don't understand how you're doing this. Why don't you
do more of Mulan busters? Do more blockbusters? Do more
blockbusters don't do these other movies. And while you're
at it, if you could, it's like you know telling somebody to
write a hit song or viral video viral marketing.
Yeah, get us get us a video that will go viral man a viral video
make one of those. I know. It's stupid.
Yeah. Well, that's because the people whose suits suits are
idiots.
Did you have anything on Ferguson because I do have a
couple thoughts on that.
Well, let me see I have way too many clips. I have no I wanted
to not Obama's sore throat clip is that about Ferguson? I don't
know.
I just wanted to go through a couple things because it's been
nice
tip on Fergus industry is to clip sucking you can play that.
Okay, the clip sucking this option you can see so much
better. I can feel it. But it's soaking everything up. I'm sure
that's for the Shark vacuum cleaner. I was wrong.
It happens. Crazy. Couple things that just wanted to talk us
through here. First of all, the term homicide has been has been
banned. Let's step once once I'm back, but people are saying and
it's been pointed out by some of our producers that the verdict
in the Ferguson place where the verdict in the Eric Garner
Trump, these are not verdicts. And it's very important that
people not confused this by saying that there's been some
kind of verdict. I don't understand
why people are doing this. But they are there's you see it on
social networks, your good pal. And then my friend Molly
Hollywood
retweeted the verdict. We did a
verdict. Oh, the verdict? You know, they've average every big
riots after the verdict. What verdict?
There's no verdict. Then the second piece that is being
bandied about is the coroner said it was homicide. Well, yes.
May I give you the legal definition of homicide for a
moment. The killing of a human being due to the act or omission
of another included among homicides are murder and
manslaughter. But not all homicides are a crime,
particularly when there was a lack of criminal intent. Non
criminal homicides include killing and self defense
misadventure, like a hunting accident, hello, Dick Cheney, or
an automobile wreck without a violation of law like reckless
driving. So homicide does not necessarily mean a cold blooded
murder, but it is being presented that way. And words do
matter. Next, I am confident if Jon Stewart ran for president
today, he would be elected and everybody would be all in on it.
For some reason, Qi has taken this this race issue and turn it
into his bully pulpit bully pulpit, and people just just
want to suck him off every single just please run for
president John Stewart is how stupid we become. And the thing
that irks me the most is the body camera. Can I know that we
disagree on this, John, but I think if we're going to do body
cameras for cops, I would like body cameras for bus drivers.
All In fact, all automobiles should have body cam cameras. If
you're driving a car or a motorcycle that in Russia, they
have
dash cams. And it should be
yes, it should be mandatory pilots. How about grand juries?
Let's have body cameras executioner's. I've always
wanted to have that stuff. You've make light of this as
best you can.
I'd make light of it because it is not the way to go. And this
the people the American people are being duped with this issue
into into a very, very unstable, unstable state. And I think
where this might be leading with all this retraining and give
everybody this federal stuff, why not just have I know, how
about federal police? When I saw a federally trained police in
fact, I'm
not seeing that connection in any way, shape or form of what
you just did.
You're not talking really you don't see the connection of the
federal government
cameras. Oh, because we want body cameras on our local cops.
That means what would refund
funded? Who's funding it? It's a federally funded program. Well,
that's what I make the connection. Yes. And we have the
Federal Protective Service. I've been waiting for these guys to
pop up. It's about time these they'll we'll
see i department Homeland Security Police want to but I
don't think there's a connection is vague to me. I don't see it.
I think you're full of okay. But here's something I thought was
interesting. This is France. 24 talking about all these riots
and everything. And this is if you listen to the names and the
events that they're talking about. It's as though whoever
sent the memo to the France 24 operation. It's like a different
it's like a different it's a different universe. Listen to
this, I need to
know the name of the class killed
according to France 24. Okay,
away from Mexico, New York thought a fourth night of anti
police protests following the funeral of a black man fatally
shot by a white police officer in Brooklyn. Last month's
shooting at our chi girly age 28 was the latest in a series of
incidents, sparking outrage over what protesters say is the
excessive force by law enforcement officers against
African Americans. Recent decisions by two grand juries
NOT to indict the officers involved in killing two black
men have rekindled the debate on us race relations.
Yeah, well keep it going everybody
girly and shot in Brooklyn and then two guys were murdered and
in some grand jury that has nothing to do with the chokehold
guy. And this is and this is the reason for the riots in New
York.
Now, this is not the reason for the riots in New York. Now,
according to France 24. The reason for the riots in New York
is people are being riled up, but we know that well It's
important to point this out. Again, drone strikes killed.
But my point is not that anyway, it's about what stories are they
talking about? These aren't even part of the of the American
lexicon, the propaganda 16 has got everybody actually riled up.
Well, I'm assuming totally alien incidents, you don't find that
peculiar.
No, no, I'm I can't care because I'm incensed about what is
happening. If you're not on Facebook, and that's, it's good.
And it's good that you're not on there. And I'm on it, because I
need to see what's going on. And here's a here's what I see all
the time. It's a picture of a face. And it's a split picture.
And the left side is a Native American Indian, and the right
side is a black man, I presume a slave. And then it says,
America, founded on the disintegration of one race and
the enslavement of another and everyone's like, like, yes, boy,
we need to change ourselves, like fucking get so mad by this.
But it's not funny people anyway. And the worst is, the
people from the UK and the Netherlands and Germany, you
guys suck. I can name 20 countries that are founded on
that on those two core principles. But the people of
America are you are being duped and you need to be very, very
careful what because you're gonna get something that you do
not like, if you keep this
founded on those core principles. It's not a core
principle. It's the
same thing as the three fifths. It's all of this stuff that
these John's
is another company, you can name other countries that were formed
on these core principles. That's, that's implying that we
were formed on that core principle.
If you want to look at if you want to look at it that way, I
can name 20 others if you want to classify way of saying it
Well, that's what I meant. That's what I meant. You
understand? You understood what I meant. I'm just there. Um, I
think we need to be very very careful about vilifying all
police forces, all protective agencies, um, you know, I'm no,
no fan of any of this shit. And I don't like the border control.
It's Department of Homeland Security that scares me the
most. And you watch these jabroni they are going to have a
place in policing our communities. Be careful. That is
the plan. That's what I see happening. And when that
happens, all right, good luck then.
We've already seen these jokers come and go in there with tiger
teams or whatever those things are called Zephyr teams. Viper
Viper, Viper teams Viper game three I did get one thing from
eight stations can is confirmed it's locked down like listen to
Piper team three cut checking in just it's just
something I just picked up which I found idiotic. This is Melissa
Harris Perry on MSNBC. No one watches her. Don't watch this.
MSNBC. She's black. She has a black guest on and here's the
topic of conversation I found interesting
that night some in Ferguson committed acts of arson,
vandalism and theft. And by the next day 12 commercial buildings
in the city had been destroyed by fire. And let me also just
point out that arson and looting while illegal and not things
that I support and I think also counterproductive in many ways
are also not necessarily violent in that they are violence
against property and that does actually carry a legal
difference right I mean, violence against property ought
to be different than violence against
bodies. I mean, certainly harming a human being is worse
than burning down a building right or it shouldn't be right
it is
it's fine it's very different it's not really violent don't
burn burning stuff down as non violent. These people are insane
then we have that this was interesting. This is the Chicago
PD from their radio traffic picked up and and recorded as
one of the protests was taking place sounds like they had one
of those what not sniper not Viper, Stingray, Stingray
devices and we're picking up everybody's cell phone traffic
listen to this
pick on the Angular mobile
phone a lot
yeah, we're keeping an eye on it we'll let you know if
we hear anything or don't okay now but she spent a lot of time
on the phone.
So that would be a warrantless wiretap, I guess. Yeah. Spend a
lot of time on the phone you picking up anything? No. Why?
Yeah. Wow.
All right. A lot of channels on those things. You gotta kind of
identify the right one. It's pain in the ass. Well,
what it sounds like they've they've got it. They know how to
do it. They've got a lot of
Yeah, he had good at it after a while. Anyway, so that was say
there would be some, some metering you need. So if you're
near somebody on the phone, you just want to listen to them. It
would have more, more dog biscuits. Your
question, why is it that we had a continuous loop going of Eric
Gardner dying and in trade in front of our very eyes as we're,
we're, we're told, I can't breathe. I can't breathe. I
can't breathe. He's dying. We're the net. The narration is
certainly he's dying right now. This man is now dead. But we
never see beheading videos or can't show that. Why is that I
don't understand is that maybe because we're trying to be told
something like John McCain said the American people need to be
told.
Well, where's that black box?
Black Box from Russia? Yeah, Mm hmm.
There was an acid to Holland or Denmark.
I have a report here from Amsterdam. We open it up for
you. This is from Reuters. So take it with that grain of salt.
Angry families of MH 17 crash victims seek UN investigation.
The crash victims angered by what they see as Dutch
mishandling of inquiries into the disaster. Which makes sense
because the Dutch definitely have to cover up anything that
is negative for Russia, because they the Dutch live off of
Russian money. They want a special UN envoy to launch an
international investigation. A letter was sent to Prime
Minister Margaret hertz on Friday, a copy of which has been
seen by Reuters. Dutch officials have failed to build the case.
They asked that inquiries by the Safety Board and prosecution
service be handed over to the United Nations. Yeah, good luck
with that. That'll work out or to should request the UN to
appoint a special envoy take over to the attorney for the for
the victims families and the Dutch. Apparently the Dutch
launched the largest criminal investigation in their history
after the crash. You know, I'm just gonna call bullshit on
that. That's not true. There's almost nothing going on. Nobody
knows who was doing what said Bob funder goons, spokesman for
the law firm. There's no coordination no leadership
whatsoever by Holland descent on Friday, Dutch teams returning to
the Netherlands we've done everything we could in view of
the safety situation and the weather. Oh, the weather. We
cannot do anything more right now. And international inquiry
is the only way to
do you got the black box? What is it say?
Everyone they need to whatever it is distract from the black
box. That would be the flight data recorder and the cockpit
voice recorder. That's all just distract everybody from it. How
long does it take? You're never going to get it ever, ever. It's
not going to happen.
It's going to be apparently it's going to prove your thesis which
I believe when all is said and done is the correct thesis. We
should probably get a clip of it and play it on the show again
sometime.
Oh, you mean about the the war games that were going on and the
blinking of the radar?
Yeah. Yeah. It was a very good analysis. One of the best.
I'll have to figure out what shut it's too long for a clip.
I think I know and just replay it as you know, I think it took
me 45 minutes to get to the to get to the whole point intake.
Well, it seemed like 45 minutes but that's just you.
You were so mean. So mean, well,
I got a little thing for you there live in you up. Okay. I
have, by the way, so I can be saved before I go to that. I
have the Jen Psaki burn report. We have this theory on the show
for people out there doesn't don't listen all the time. Is
that Marie Harf is trying to get Jen Sakis job. So the things she
does now she leaves her mic on.
You mean Marie Harf sabotage Jen Sakis Mike that I believe
so. I like Well,
good point I thought you'd have of course I have it.
Okay, well, let's play the best play the democracy now or one of
these TV shows. Maybe it's news hour. The overview of the Jen
Psaki gaff and then you can play the actual clip. Saki burns
State Department
Spokesperson Jen Psaki has been caught on a hot mic criticizing
talking points and encryption court's decision to drop all
charges against ousted President Hosni Mubarak. Sacchi spoke at a
news conference after Mubarak was clear to bordering the
killings of hundreds of protesters during the uprising
against his regime in 2011. Well, generally,
we continue to believe that upholding impartial standards of
accountability will advance the political consensus on which
Egypt's long term stability and economic growth depends. But
beyond that, I would refer you to the Egyptian Government for
any further comment at the
end of the news conference and Mike captured Sokhi telling a
reporter that Egypt line is ridiculous. Stacie later sent an
email to ABC News quote, it's just the latest scientific
evidence of global warming now we have to worry about hot mics.
But as Secretary Kerry reminded admit I'm in good company in
this administration. Okay,
so what did crappy report
they so they don't even play the open
mic bit? No. And here's the thing this is like the earned
the bleep down. Oh my God show is ridiculous they leave stuff
out it's such a piece of crap is well, there's more to it of the
ball here. Here's because I want to know because I know Murray
horse doing
well and this of course, is the work of a woman scorned. No
doubt will.
Oh, yeah, bad talking. This key is is the Mara Marie show
starring Matt Lee,
also starring Laurie Hart. So but here's the point that the
report also did not point out. It was not just some reporter.
No. It was Matt Lee saying what you just said makes no sense.
And what she just said is that bit that democracy now played,
which made no sense. Does anyone say that the report was shite no
doubt about it. Here's the setup. Here is Matt, which is of
course is Marie's boyfriend, and she's very pissed off. That's
why she's trying to undermine Jen to get her out of the of the
picture. I think this is but this is a love triangle problem
we've got here.
Well, generally, we continue to believe that upholding impartial
standards of accountability will advance the political consensus
on which Egypt's long term stability and economic growth
depends. But beyond that, I would refer you to the Egyptian
Government for any further comment.
Wow. I don't understand that at all. What does that mean? You
believe that? Of course you do but was that what were those
standards upheld? In this case?
I don't have anything any specific comment on the case I'm
pointing to the Egyptian Government thing just because I
have anything specific on the case. What you said
says nothing. I mean it just so it's like saying, well, we
support the right of people to breathe
further comments on the case that we'll make sure all of you
have it.
I think that is very relevant to the story. But know that skipped
over? Yeah, left that out. And here's the end. It's right to
breathe line is great funny with Matt. It's funny that He's our
guy. He's the only journalist I have any respect for. Acting
journalist and here is the Hot Mic bit. You have to listen
closely. I've boosted as much as possible. All right.
Thank you everyone.
That Egypt line is ridiculous. There you go.
Yeah, I couldn't hear a word of it. No. Well, you could you can
hear it on the on the southern bar ridiculous.
That Egypt line is ridiculous. It's exactly what she said.
Yeah. That's Little maybe the love triangle is a little more
unique. Maybe more interesting. It may be that Jen and Marie
there may be something going on.
And Matt ma okay.
And Matt's kind of in the middle there is trying to you know,
maybe Maybe Marie flirts with Matt. Jen skin possible.
It's not it's not like this interoffice romance doesn't
happen.
It happens all the time, I think is very, very possible.
All right. So get into what I was trying to start with, which
is a little thing for you. I want you to spot the gaff.
Oh, wait, what we have a jingle for that, John. I didn't know
what that was coming up. Where's my where's my Gaff? Where's my
gaff jingle. Ah, you know, you just can't. You just can't get
get help. I hear just it's a catch the gap is what it is.
Hold on. It's the run info
gang.
This is David Brooks. Guest the gaff.
There you go. David.
I was afraid you're gonna turn to me. Yeah, now listen, if the
President could turn up a dial and create jobs, that'd be
great. But prisons can't do that.
If you can turn up the dial. What's no calf?
You're not gonna get it?
Can I kind of do you mind if I if I listened to it one more
time? Okay, I would really I need that David.
I was afraid you're gonna turn to me
I can't hear what she says. It's something that I can't hear. I
can't hear
ya now listen. I got it. I got it. I got
it Hey, Shaka here and I heard that one went right away. Nailed
it. Nailed it. At that, clip it, and then I heard JC say it. Uh
huh. And I'm starting to now I'm starting to analyze a little bit
because yeah, yeah, no, I think here's what I'm thinking. I
think it's actually a rewrite diminutive version of, you know,
hmm. You know, you know, possibly know, where you just
say, you know, you know, and you listen to football games. Yeah,
you know, we did this, you know, you know, you know, and they
just keep saying, you know, and then that's devolved into, ya
know, I maybe only thing I can think of because it's a filler,
it's no reason in the world to use it to ever say it as a
filler. And you know, is a filler, and, ya know, is a
filler. I
believe it is more intricate. I think it is more, you say
something I'm going to for a moment, say yeah. So you think,
Oh, he's agreeing. No,
it was instant. So instant and it's so throwaway. And it sounds
just like you know, exactly, as a matter of fact, that there has
to be a connection.
I don't know. I feel
I mean, we don't know this is just theory, and I'm just
starting to hear it now. And so I'll be able to eliminate it
from my vocabulary which I'd love to do because it's stupid.
It's not very it's not very attractive. Let's put it that
way. Well, if
David Brooks could say I mean I don't feel that bad company
let me see what we have here. Oh, there's a lot of different
stories.
The the botched rescue. Yeah, that's
a good one.
I also got now I don't clip the whole thing but they had they
brought in Brian Ross, who was a notoriously bad reporter. Yes.
According to media
so the ABC report that you have you see guy I love this with the
animation.
They had some animation I didn't get the whole team ready have
botched rescue and in the botched rescue attempt questions
which is the you have some question you when you play this
part. You go oh, you've got questions, but played botched
rescue and then go from there is ABC World News Tonight.
Good evening, I'm Dan Harris. This special operations forces
were on a dangerous mission facing an urgent deadline al
Qaeda was threatening to kill this American hostage Luke
summers a freelance photographer by today if their demands were
not met, so the commandos including members of Seal Team
Six launched an overnight raid into Yemen to rescue summers,
but it went bad. He was executed by his captors, and today
President Obama, who authorized that raid called it a barbaric
murder. ABCs chief investigative correspondent Brian Ross is here
with the details of this harrowing operation. Brian, good
evening.
Well, good evening, Danny was a high risk mission to begin with
under less than ideal conditions without almost full moon and
little element of strategic surprise because of an earlier
failed rescue attempt. 10 days ago, but US officials decided
there was no choice but to try it given the imminent threat. US
officials believe that al Qaeda had planned to execute 33 year
old Luke summers some time after sun up today. It was
a very dangerous and complicated mission. But like always in
these efforts
there's there's risk
if you didn't get the report I got about what actually went
wrong. Do you know when what went wrong? What happened
to you? Were the guys peeing outside? Yeah, yeah, I think
that's in the second part. But this Brooke brings a
the only reason I bring it up is in the report I have the whole
thing's animated. Right? You have the Osprey is landing the
same thing they showed and then you should see an al Qaeda guy
pissing against the wall.
Exact same thing. But there was a couple of things that were
interesting play botched rescue attempt questions and this is
what would kind of got my attention. And also they have
some strange sound effect in the back that I deconstructed in
which it turns out to be a modem sound.
Do you want to play that? I'll play the question. Yes. Great
part to the rescue
mission was launched from a US air base in Djibouti around 1am.
local time. Some 40 members of the elite SEAL Team Six landed
about six miles away from the al Qaeda hideout. To avoid being
detected by the aircraft noise the team made its way on foot to
within 100 yards of the objective when a US counter
terrorist source tells ABC News one of the al Qaeda guards who
had gone outside to relieve himself spotted the team. What
ensued was a fierce 10 minute gunbattle in which most but not
all, al Qaeda guards were killed, with none of the US
forces injured but US officials say one of the attackers was
seen racing inside the building and his building Used to have
shot both summers and a second hostage. One of them died from
his wounds being flown out to a US Navy ship. The other died in
the ship's medical facility.
First of all, yeah, whatever happened that's yeah, that's
what that sounds like. It's a modem sounds like how kind of
out Yeah. So what was the word happened to our stealth
helicopter? The one that silence you can't hear it can be landed
right next to the place. What was that one they use? That
doesn't make sense.
They use two osprey, which is the tilt room noise just
pieces of crap in the world.
i There's so many things I don't understand about this, where all
of a sudden, it's very important to get these two guys. I have a
Josh Earnest with a White House press conference about this.
With this some information there. And then I have some
information from the Dutch press, which I want to share
with you here. First, here's a Josh Earnest, responding. I
think it's only responding. But Luke Sohmer is here not about
Pierre Corky, which is interesting.
Last month, the United the President authorized an
operation to rescue Luke, who has been held hostage by AQAP in
Yemen since September of 2013. And a number of other hostages
now, what? When do we decide to someone who's important to go
rescue not once but twice. That's what I'd like to go for
it who works for us if something of a goofball works for Al
Jazeera. Yeah, come on.
As soon as the US government had retired reliable intelligence,
and an operational plan, the President authorized the
Department of Defense to conduct an operation to rescue Mr.
Summers. Regrettably, when the operation was executed, Luke was
not present. Though hostages of other nationalities of war
president were present and they were rescued. The mission was
coordinated with the Yemeni government, it was undertaken by
us and Yemeni forces. We have a strong, collaborative
relationship with the Yemeni government, and will continue to
work together to counter the shared threat that we face from
AQAP. The details of the operation remain classified. So
there's a limit to what I can discuss here. The overriding
concern for Mr. Summer safety and the safety of US forces who
undertake these missions made it imperative that we not disclose
information related to Mr. Summers his captivity and the
attempted rescue. The Department of Defense has acknowledged the
fact of the operation now, in order to provide accurate
information that is being given in order to provide accurate
information given that this is being widely reported in the
public domain, and the President could not be prouder of US
forces who carried out this mission and the dedicated
intelligence law enforcement and diplomatic professionals who
supported their efforts. Their effort should serve as another
signal a clear signal to those who would do us harm that the
United States will spare no effort to secure the safe return
of our citizens and to hold their captors accountable.
Now the organization the South African organization gift of the
givers who are registered in the United States as a nonprofit and
have not report they registered, they show up but they have not
reported any financial documents. In fact, they are
only registered they no financial information, so we
don't know how long they've been around but they are in Fort
Washington, Maryland is where their US subsidiary is they they
are in the category of Human Services, emergency assistance,
food, clothing, cash, and they ruling year 2012 So they are
grossly behind on their reporting. They are very angry,
according to the Dutch press because the South African who
died Pierre Corky apparently the gift of the givers had already
set up a pay off they had passport tickets everything
ready. He was supposed to be let go the next day. Yeah, no, that
was reported here. Yeah, no, really? Yeah. No. Yes. Yeah. No.
That No, it was reported here. Now, you know,
I didn't hear much of that.
I did. They didn't emphasize the depart they left out was that
the group was irked
Earth to say the least.
But it was obvious they were irked.
So I haven't figured out much about well all
he can say is maybe the guy had to get killed. I mean, it seems
to me that
that's that's what I'm thinking too.
Are these botched really are they really botched or they're
firing guns having a 10 minute fight what is that guy dead yet?
Well let's let's review where did they die? They died one on
the helicopter one on the on the naval ship
Yeah, with the one on the naval ship was dropped from the
helicopter.
I don't say these things up. I gotta look into this gift. I
gotta look into this. It's very fishy. It's totally is and if
you look at this gift of the givers now i By
the way, I didn't realize that the guy was a reporter for Al
Jazeera, which makes it even more fishy because why are we
record rescuing him and the whole thing, he's buried, she
has a rush job we had to do now
he's a British born British born naturalized American citizen.
I mean, our guy or the South African guy, our guy,
which I mean, on the list of things I think you get natural
born American citizens first and then you're definitely second
class if you're British, and then you know, get your
passport. I'm sorry, your second class. So why should it be top?
Why should it be top of the list? Oh, no, no, no. So to me
it smelled immediately. I have not I have not found the typical
USA ID State Department connection with the summers. But
I found the Algis he's a photojournalist for AlJazeera
and a couple of other very obscure outfits, nothing.
Nothing that we would have seen. I don't know just we haven't
mounted such rescue missions for the guys who got beheaded. We
didn't try to rescue any of those guys did we that I know of
not to this extreme where they actually take took two shots at
it.
And with with our sprays and the whole deal, I found it. I found
that to be curious. And they stayed specifically that they
were not killed by they were not assassinated. They were not
killed by our gunfire, but they did die of their wounds in our
care. And this is a gift of the givers foundation that we got to
look into this gift of the givers.org their operational in
Yemen Gaza. Hold on. They have a map here we are active. Let's
see. Oh my goodness, Spain, Italy, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan,
Afghanistan, these guys are out these guys are
it has to have something to do with them. Because like you said
that guy was supposed to be given up the next day, we
couldn't have him out on the streets. Because he either knows
something or is it good? I mean, he you don't know that he was I
don't know, the whole thing is very
vicious. Here's what it sounds like to me. You're right. It was
not about our guy. It was about this guy. And the summers guy is
it's just a cover up. And this warrants some real research. And
it's disturbing the gift of the givers has not reported any
financial information to the IRS and so they are late with the
2012 and 2013 filings that's October you have to file and
otherwise you're just you're in violation and and they also
don't have like a news thing about about their guy on their
website,
like we're so is that right? They usually put that up
immediately. Like we're sad. Yeah, we're sad. Our guy got
killed.
I don't see any of that
we gotta find out who's behind that. That's that's deep,
something fishy about this whole story. I've it just doesn't ring
right in any way and all the rigmarole around it. And I don't
know.
Meanwhile, the rhetoric is dialed up about Christians being
persecuted by ISIS. Killing them. The Pope is the Pope is
all over this. Yeah, the Pope's all over it. And we have the
Andrew white, known as the vicar of Baghdad. And I've heard of
him. I haven't really followed him, though. He speaks in a very
dramatic very strange cadence. And if you will, this is a
pretty interesting story. I got a short clip of it, because he
just so drawn out the way he talks. But
listen, a few days later,
hold on a second. I gotta split that audio up somehow did that
happen? drawn out here we go.
Some of our young people I've seen this turned up and they say
to the children, use the words that you will follow mommy.
The ice showed up and said to the children in the parish, you
say the words that you will follow Muhammad
and the children all under 50 for them. They said no, we love
you sir.
You saw we love Jesus we love you. So
we have always loved you. So we have always follows you sir.
Your sir as always been with us. They said say the words. They
said no we can't. They talked all their heads off.
So believable. This is like the worst Broadway play and her head
is gone. So
we have been going through what we are going through
guys, he must be a psychopath Half
Kuwait talks. I don't even know what you're playing
the vicar of Baghdad, Andrew white. God runs the parish in
Baghdad. And he said that
whenever you get with John Kerry and given me a clip
you didn't like the the. I thought it was. Well, I
mean, yeah, yeah, like I said, it sounds like a bad Broadway
play.
Well, we could always do this. That always helps.
Well, it wouldn't hurt at first a little sound effects and fill
out the blank space. You should have done was taken the guy's
voice he sent me Next up, I'm gonna fix it. And you could boot
you know, you can run to do a pitch change and then run it
faster. And it would actually be pretty, you could listen to it
and try that with carry.
No, no carry is useless.
It's useless. It's just come out as a guy. Throw in so much. And
here I am amongst you all. You're in the audience and I'm
up here on the stage.
I'm awesome. I'm fantastic. I'm really
do we have a discussion because you and us we have the same
general things to discuss. And you're in the audience and I'm
on a stay and it's just He never says anything.
Euro
John, we have a new superhero in our midst. He has an animated
cartoon, a genuine superhero here to help the people of the
Euro lands. The euro zone's he has a cape, he talks to world
leaders. He is known as Captain Euro. This is on TV.
Captain Euro Europe's superhero. David Cameron,
the F word. We join our hero after three days of intensive
coaching. It is now 4am But Captain Euro never gives up. Mr.
Cameron, I know you can do it. Give it one more try. I just
can't. I've tried so hard. I promise it's just too much for
glory. Never fear Mr. Cameron, I will guide you. You cannot
ignore the obvious anymore. Mr. Cameron, we have reached the
breaking point. Let's try again. Okay, I'll try one more time.
That's the spirit. Here we go. The seven letters are F, E, D,
E. r a l federal I did it and it didn't hurt so much. This time.
It's getting less painful every time. This is a cartoon. This
sounds exactly like you. Like me? Yeah, the guy's voice it
sounds like you row I well. First of all, I wish it pitch
analysis. This is you?
Well, it's not me. And I wish it were because I would have made
some good money off of this thing funded by the EU and have
an analysis here. This is a captain Euro we're going to have
a conversation with the creator of this cartoon. This is serious
Look, can we can I stop you for a second? Because you're you've
gone first of all me make me think it was you. It's not me
just deciding to do a play in the middle of our show. It says
so bad thinking. Okay, this was this a commercial was this. This
is
a show. This is a superhero on television
public service announcement. Was this in between shows? Was it.
It airs
on television all over Europe. It is a superhero known as
Captain Euro. He has a cape you can look them up. Look them up
on on Google Captain Euro. And he has a show. And the show is
meant
to Saturday morning shows at prime time is it up against you?
It airs at different times in different countries. I have an
analysis of it on the BBC a serious panel discussion about
Katherine, you're
running this piece of crap.
Will it catch on? Well, it's a starring role for Giles anyway.
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No. It's Nicholas DeSantis, the
creator of CAPTCHA Euro who joins us now. Why?
Why? Because I think it's time to bring this discussion to the
United Kingdom in terms of where's the UK as, as a system
of government going to go as you know, we now have the options of
having either more regional power, or having an English
Parliament or having English votes for English
laws as well as we thought it was a comic strip. Because I
think
it's time to to explain federalism the European Union in
which in which which people can understand because I think some
of the topics we're dealing with the people in the street are
really not it's very complicated to to talk about the EU.
It's come through I suppose for some of you patients
and we think up to European bring this to us as a as a new
way to explain this rise.
Well, since this is the first time you've probably heard or
seen this does Captain Euro do it for you does it to bring the
European Union to parts that other others haven't reached?
I think it does provide does serve a valuable purpose because
it is important to have an explicit debate about whether
Britain wants to be part of a federal country. And,
you know, federalism to Alexander Hamilton was a
distribution of power, much of which did go to the center. This
is having an actual serious conversation about Captain euro
to explain the stupid slaves. What federalism is and what
Europe is supposed to be. And by a French guy who made this
horrible, horrible play with animated figures
This is insanity. It's baffling. Is it not? It's crazy.
Have you ever did you look it up the captain Euro?
I was sitting here I couldn't move. I was like, son. Let me
see just finally snapping out of it.
If you just search for Captain Euro, because Captain euro.eu.
And I'm going there and you have to take a look. The website is
just wow. And they've got episodes and you're gonna get a
lot of love. It's
just for Captain Euro cash is not even a good cartoon.
It's Captain euro.eu. That's where you want to go.
When looking at the images right now, I wanted to see that first.
Oh, oh, and there's a sexy girl called Europa. And then here's a
good picture. Captain Euro Europa the blonde with a small
waist Helen who looks like a looks like a bitch. Marcus, the
black man. Eric the blonde. I don't know. Pythagoras, some
scientist, the scientist who's all in a global warming and the
dog Lupo,
which is a wolf.
It's actually and you see the characters, isn't it? Isn't it?
Grand?
Grand. And Captain Euro? He has a he has a motorcycle that he
rides on.
Well, he also has a little Porsche of some sort.
You can get a patch you can be on the captain Euro team who I
want to patch this stupid if this is the way they have to.
The parodies are funnier. Captain keuro With that looks
like the character does a lot of good parodies of course. Yeah,
we're Vaughn rum boy as Captain euro is horrible looking version
of him. Captain Euro
they also have a villain though they have the villain. Yeah, see
the villain? He's
got one. He's got an eyepatch. Yeah, what is and he speaks and
he's got the hair. This two colors. He's Dr.
Dexter, the Darius who wants to divide and destroy Europe.
Dr. de vida de
de vida. Yes. There you go. Dr. de vida.
Yeah, that's creative. Wow, this is like an 80 This is like, this
is great. This is
the find of the day. It kind of reminds me of Speed Racer. The
style no is like a worse version. Yeah, but it's that
style of Speed
Racer. Yeah, crap. And well, I like Speed Racer, which doesn't
mean it's not crap.
The thing that is that no one's really discussing or that I may
be I'm missing it was since when did federalism become the topic?
I thought this was never said we are not going to be the United
States of Europe. That's what I always thought. But this is
completely what they're talking about 100% federalism and then
even bring in Alexander Hamilton into the conversation.
But here it is. Look, Captain people who doubt Belgium. Wake

what's your bill? What's your bill broken?
Now my bill is when I pushed it down. It would stick down at the
bottom when I popped back up every time. And it was just a
little bit of ranch hand lubricant. I'm sitting here
wondering what to do and I saw the candidate stuff.
That's your Yeah, okay. That's your lube.
Right? You get it on your fingers. Don't you can't hold
anything. That's very difficult. That
sounds like good stuff
at once. Anyway, okay, well, that was disappointing, but we
had at least a good crowd. I have a WTF clip. Okay, know how
we've talked about how cool would be if we were judges at a
beauty pageant or something. Yeah, it would be good we don't
you think
it's more something you've wanted, but I thought we could
always do a good job. The people who think we could
do a really good job, but now there's the NCAA playoffs and
they have a committee like judges
that are going to pick the guys NC ball. This is what is NCAA
NCAA done the new Christian Athletic Association. Oh, I'm
sorry, College Athletic Association. Anyways, they have
the playoff football playoffs, you're gonna have to pick four
teams, you're gonna have a playoff at the end, the four
best teams, and I was stunned to learn this. This fact
the regular college football season, the best of the best
fighting to be one of four teams selected to play in the first
ever College Football Playoff and epic change after 145 years
of AP wa history. Here's how it works. A selection committee of
13 including Condoleezza Rice has been ranking teams since
October
she has an endorsement deal with the with the call it with the
athletic leagues. I think she doesn't she sells jerseys as
I've seen this before. She has some kind of deal with them.
What is she noted pick a bit football team they'd be in the
playoffs? I don't know. But she a big football fan her whole
life when she was like playing the piano at Stanford.
Look all I know is that the Dutch female field hockey team
is not going to the finals as you know it'd be
finals it doesn't make it of course they wouldn't hockey
team. Is that bad?
Have codon How many times do I have to tell you you're missing
out on watching women's field hockey, this is the sexiest
sport alive. And so the Australian team who are good
lookers man all the things nice about is they're they're tall
and lanky and they got these cute little skirts that the
float flutter are about so they're going to play against
we're going to play again you
know you're married, right? Yeah.
What does that what does that have to do with anything?
Nothing. I just I just said you know, you're married. You've
never said that when I'm talking about being vicarious. You never
mentioned that.
You know you're married. Well, from now on,
I think I think I am Argentina. Oh my this is going to be a dual
resilience. I mean, they'll live South America. It's gonna be
awesome volleyball people are
really against Argentina. Do you kidding me? This is going to be
a great game can wait to watch Oh god, it will stick in
Australia for
a moment that I put down some tarp. Yeah.
Give me some of that ranch handy yours. It's a sticking with
Australia now, as it were, we would like to Yeah, we'd like to
visit Australia with the hot pockets to where we have people
at end New Zealand already offering their homes to be
guides, etc. I have quite a growing list. We haven't really
planned everything yet. But I'm extremely worried about what's
happening to our our friends down in Australia. And then the
authorities are really getting away with everything. Now,
listen to this
civil aviation documents show almost 200 licenses have been
issued for drone surveillance in suburbia, monitoring everything
from power lines to tall trees. Now a bold move to use that
technology in your backyard could save many hours for ranges
on the beat, and even a child's life.
Oh, this is where it always goes.
He cancels out using drones in some aspects of surveillance. In
other areas of Sydney and around Australia,
drones can give a snapshot of hundreds of homes in a matter of
seconds. Quietly and discreetly.
This is where technology pushes the boundaries of the law. And
while
there are privacy laws to protect us from one another.
When it comes to councils and their prosecution powers, we
come crashing back to Earth
where enforcement is involved. And where child safety is
involved. Privacy would come second to enforcement,
meaning and counsel can fly a drone anywhere it likes without
permission. Let's say in your backyard to check you have a
pool fence. Anything that saves kids lives. I'm in favor of swim
coach Laurie Lawrence agrees. Children. Children,
you jumped me on that. But yeah, so we're going to fly drones to
make sure no children are drowning in your pool. Hello,
hello, Australians. Are you crazy? Shoot that out of the
sky. It's
just good to fly the drones and see if anyone's bathing is
sunbathing.
diver tell you about my, my test for my pilot's license in
Portland, Oregon. No. American pilot's license is very
interesting. It really is a license to learn how to fly even
though you're supposed to, you know, get tested that you can
fly, because you can't really get you know, get insurance or
anything without certain amount of hours and a senior instructor
signing off on it. But it does give you the opportunity to fly
into fly by yourself. And I did my test in Portland, Oregon. And
as we're flying instructor, and he's FAA instructor Hey, man, go
down over this good drop down to 500 feet. Let's see if she's out
there today. Because apparently, there's some woman who's Sunday
the nude and these guys always fly over. And that was a part of
my, my test.
Yeah, and she never notices this. And
I'm quite sure she's all in on it. No doubt about it. Yeah. No
doubt about flying over. Believe it had a little funny with the
brain professor,
that of the brain. Professor good. We haven't heard from him
for a while. He's
in San Francisco. Now. Oh, he's
wanting to move. Yeah,
he now is at Stanford. And I checked that Facebook is good
for that, because he's a narcissist. They all our posting
stuff. But I think I was probably looking to see if he
had any deviating update on the brains that were stolen, which I
still think is bulk loads of missing brains. Then it was a
posting from him that says, Oh, we're canceling or vacation next
week because of the flu. And I went, Wait a minute. So I posted
a response and said, Wait a minute. You're telling me that
you had did not get your flu shot like a good citizen. And he
posted back and he said, Yeah, I did. I hate to say it, but you
know, you're right. This flu shot is absolutely worthless.
You know that this is interesting to me because I have
talked to so many people over the past two or three weeks who
have the flu. And every one of them says I got a right after I
got the flu shot.
Here is a report about the CDC. With a rare apology about the
vaccine this year.
For the first time we can remember the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention are going on the record saying the flu
vaccine won't work this year. The warning comes just before
the busiest part of the flu season in January and February.
Unfortunately, there won't be any refund for any of the
patients or insurance companies who spent money on flu shots
earlier this year. Don't worry just when you thought perhaps
the CDC could boost their credibility. They found a way to
put a sales pitch on the end of their warning. The CDC says if
You come down with the flu, there is a cure. It's just gonna
cost you more money money they'll end up profiting the
pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline and Roche. CDC
officials are urging doctors to prescribe two specific antiviral
medications for any patients who come in with flu symptoms. Just
last week, the CDC issued a warning prompting Americans to
take the flu vaccine if they haven't already. Health
officials said they had 160 million flu shots on the shelves
and ready to go. But just earlier this week, Italy
launched an official investigation. After about a
dozen people died within 48 hours of getting the flu shot.
Their National Health Agency issued an immediate warning
saying don't take the vaccine. Here in America, the CDC isn't
going that far. In fact, they found a way of turning this
failed vaccine into a promotion for yet another big pharma drug
apparently the this the word is the flu this year. It mutated
and mutated.
Always mutate. Does but the thing that gets me is that the
people who got the flu got it shortly after the shot I think
the shots got live vaccine or live of flu in it. I think the
the shot that's what the Italians pull it from the
market. I think it's a it's a bad shot. I think shot you'll
get the flu you want the flu, get a shot. I mean, that's all I
can say because everyone I know who's got the flu. And there's a
bunch of them. They all say they just got the shot. And it's
always goes like this. Yeah. And what really irks me is I got the
shot. Yeah, they got the flu, including a lot of people that
were you know, the Big Shot advocates. And it seems it seems
like they didn't work. They're talking about as Tamiflu they're
trying to get Tamiflu is it. They used to be other things I
think a flu muzzin or flu, some flu. I can't remember the name
exactly. But antiviral hoozy floozy floozy they got the the
Tamiflu is is supposedly losing its effectiveness and so I think
they're trying to get rid of it. The other one Relenza, which is
the one they they've never said the name of these two drugs they
want to try to promote Of course not is the one that is lesser
known.
But have you ever used Relenza, haven't you? I've used both
Tamiflu and Relenza, I use the Tamiflu hoping for the
hallucinations they never came so they're not going to
have some Chantix. That seems to work yeah, that would work.
I've used both of them and I think they work well. They kind
of what they do, in my opinion to describe the effect I could
be wrong and how the mechanism works with this the way it feels
when you when you catch the flu. You got to fight oh and haven't
gotten any more ever since a good vitamin d3 therapy changes
that you don't get the flu but you start to get the flu you
take what you start with a regimen of Tamiflu and Relenza.
Either one they're both exact. They're similar that
when you when you do this the minute you feel it or when you
if you
want when you're old enough and you would qualify. You know it's
the flu. It's not a cold coming on. Yeah, you can feel it. Yeah,
you know, it's like, oh, this is not a cold. This is the flu.
I've had it before. I know what it feels like do you start
immediately right? And what it does is it stops the flu in its
tracks by stopping its ability to replicate. And Relenza is
when you take it by breathing it in you breathe into chunk of it
and of Tamiflu you swallow it and it what it does is it you
the symptoms that you have stay they don't go away right. Yeah.
So as far as it doesn't accelerate it, just it doesn't
go anywhere right just days. So if you're able to have sick and
you're you know you're groggy start taking this you will stay
that way and you take it I think for seven days and then when
you're done apparently what the effect is I think is that it
leaves a flu in your body and your systems gets all worked up
I we can make the antibiotics we can take care of this you stop
taking Tamiflu Orleans and boom you feel it just ramps up and is
Oh my God it didn't work. I'm gonna get be sick as a dog
because you can just you just feel a flu coming on really bad.
And then within I don't know 12 hours 20 The next day, boom,
nothing. You got nothing. You got no symptoms of everything,
anything. It's just as though your body went into high gear
and wiped it out.
Okay, so let me put this into some shorter terms without all
the booms. I get Tamiflu and Orleans. I think Tamiflu is what
you're recommending.
No, no. I personally recommend Relenza Lenzo. Okay. Relenza is
losing its ability. We're getting
Relenza again over the counter product and just get it at the
drugstore.
No, you have to get a prescription All right. What do
you think a Tamiflu prescription goes for?
Oh, I mean, if we if you've paid yourself not not in not insured?
Well, we even with insurance Tamiflu they took it off all the
insurance because people were like taking it for prophylactic
reasons. Is it like 120 bucks? Yeah, that makes sense. Why
prescription Yeah. Yeah, it's a scam.
Yeah, well, hello. A couple of things I got left here. The
Ministry of Truth. First of all Candy Crowley leading CNN. I'm
sad. Where she going? That's no mention so she's been fired our
tea. No, that will be interesting.
It won't be Oh, no, she she worked there for everyone to one
of the network. She'll be good news NBC she was
fired. This is this is a fire as fired. Yeah, this is a for what
what when they say she's leaving Jeff Zucker says she's leaving
and not saying she's leaving. Do we wish her well? Hello?
Well, there was no well wishing
No no, that's all there was yes. Uh, well, wishing but not a well
wishing and your new endeavor. Veteran CNN political anchor
candy Crowley's leaving CNN network President Jeff Zucker
announced in a staff memo Friday. Crowley will host the
network's Sunday morning say the union news Vova has been with
the network since 1987. It is unclear who will take over her
position. In the memo, Zucker called Crawley one of the most
important and impactful journalists at CNN. I don't
think she's going I don't think she has a deal, John, I think
that they're tired of her.
Yeah, well, she probably doesn't draw big. You
know, I kind of left that one where it was. Let's see, oh,
this is very interesting. The French in Marseille, have
decided to identify its homeless population by issuing them with
ID cards. And a yellow triangle on their clothing.
No, yes, this is a bogus story. Oh,
no, no, it's not. Not a bogus story. It's a great story. It's
only half of a Star of David. So you know. You can look it up.
That's great. That should be a European wide thing. And then
the EU and here's something you have just to make if Sandy Hook
wasn't weird enough. The bank that held the notes on the Lanza
home have now given back the House to the city of Hartford,
but only after they have removed and incinerated everything in
the house. Because they didn't want anyone to be selling some
of this stuff has memorabilia. I have never strange enough that
they level the school building. In leaving nothing left for us
to ever look at. Now they've incinerated the rugs,
everything. Everything is incinerated from the entire
house. And the bank said we really wanted to do what was
right for the community. What bank was this? Hudson City
Savings Bank? Also known as CIA front? Yeah, no bank does that.
Banks. Oh, we it's not about money. You want to do what was
right, please.
Hudson City savings. Never heard of it. That's Randall
Bell, founder of Real Estate damage economics Laguna Beach,
California company that specialized specialized in
property damage that he proposed nine or 10 choices to the bank
on what it could do with the Lanza house among the options
were selling it in foreclosure selling it can conventionally or
bulldozing it. Bo dosing it.
strange, strange,
that whole story is authentic.
Very, very strange, as you will be out here. And then I also
have the David Cameron now calling on media companies. This
is very nice. Calling on media companies for social media,
terrorism policing, they want algorithms, apparently,
algorithm algorithms that would hear what they say could read an
algorithm that correctly identifies terrorist
communications so that this thing can be can be reported to
the authorities. How's that work? Well, it does. And of
course, it's completely stupid.
It's another waste of money.
It's what they do over there. They're really good at
this legislation is important. The substance is right. The time
is right. And the way in which it has been developed is right.
It is a properly considered thought through set of proposals
that will help to keep us safe at a time of very significant
danger. It has been drawn up in close consultation with the
police and security services in an open and free society like
ours, we can never entirely eliminate the threat from
terrorism. But we must do everything possible consistent
with our values as a country to reduce the risk presented by our
enemies. It is a struggle that will go on for many years. And
the threat we face right now is perhaps greater than it ever has
been when we must have a powerless, powerless, powerless
means to defend ourselves.
Got it? Here's some algorithms
gate to the gate to the climate gate. I know, I know. I have a
new said about Ferguson a little while ago. And yeah, I did. I
did skip a clip I want to play, which is the democracy now goes
off script clip, they had a black cop on who was a kind of
arrest of he's now a consultant. He's a really interesting guy.
And he started to talk about something I've never heard
anyone else say, and instead of going around the table about it
now they cut him off and then go to some radical young black guy
who's got his, you know, essentially fist in the air
talking about YT. And you know, how they're how the system needs
to change press, but so sorry. So yeah, let's play this guy and
listen how they cut this guy off because this is interesting
press.
Wednesday jumped on him. At some point. One of the officers
should say, Hey, wait, wait, wait, hold it, hold it, hold it.
Because now you're going from a lawful act to a criminal act
when a person is begging for air and you show a depraved
indifference to human life. That is a crime. Representative King
said and recently that is not a crime to choke. It is a felony
crime to choke a person in the state of New York. He has a law
degree and he's speaking errantly it is a felony crime to
choke cut off the airway or the flow of blood to the brain and
render an individual unconscious it is a felony crime Michael
Smith lunch bring you into the discussion you just wrote a
piece
Yeah, just to cut him off after they said he was out the script
apparently doesn't want to discuss this issue.
That's interesting. Yeah, I
thought so.
You know that? I don't I can't back this up other than the
reports I've seen that the sergeant on duty who's
supervising the arrest who apparently is either heard or
maybe in the longer version of the video you can see her it's a
it's a female Kizzy Adani. So she's is the police sergeant.
Supervising the arrest is black.
Okay, well, that's not that doesn't fit. It doesn't get
nothing to do with. Here's a fit, doesn't fit doesn't fit the
script. It's like this guy is choking thing and go away. All
right here is the kind of a maybe something we could figure
out. This is another Democracy Now. Story with no research and
just kind of just reading from some wire services GMOs in the
EU.
The European Union's announced an agreement that would allow
member states to ban cultivation of genetically modified crops.
The legislation would let the 28 EU countries banned the crops
even if European Union regulators approve them.
environmentalists who are seeking to curb GMOs over
potential health and ecological harms have voiced concern the
measure could leave countries that banned GMOs vulnerable to
legal retaliation from multinationals like Monsanto.
Well, I think no Monsanto's out of the business, or they're
getting out of it. Yeah, this is not working out. But this whole
story was like, why would the environmentalists say be fearful
of getting some of these countries being sued? And why is
this even this is a strange to me. This was an unexplained
story that makes no sense. It is Belgium gun Atlas that countries
do what they want, which is part of federalism that Captain euro
would be, well,
this Captain euro will swoop down and talk about GMOs to the
people eventually. But the whole the way the citizens of Europe
have been duped into thinking that well, the EU is just
guidelines. You see we have our own sovereign states and we have
our own rules and we don't have to follow the EU rules. So Haha.
Yeah, well, that doesn't seem to work out and another confused
store and this was on a local TV show. And this is the confused
story, which again, makes zero sense or it's a non sequitur.
I'm not exactly sure how its presented. Or what the formula
is it makes it crappy. Some pretty
cute animals. There are record setting white truffle has sold
at auction for far less than it might have. The truffle found in
Italy last week weighs four point 16 pounds, Sotheby's
auctioned it today for more than $61,000 the buyer is from
Taiwan. Southern Reserve said it received million dollar offers
from China. It sold the truffle in New York so that the money
would go to local charities.
Wait a minute. It was a it was an auction and Chinese bid.
A couple of things. It was auctioned in New York to a
Taiwanese, the Chinese would give a million dollars but they
auctioned in New York to a Taiwanese. Yeah. Because it the
New York because it was auctioned in New York. The money
would go to charity. Why wouldn't the Chinese money that
was bought that would buy the truffle in New York also go to
charity? And why would it go to charity at all? If you got a
truffle like this, you're selling it for a reason?
Now you're asking all the dumb you're asking all the right
questions,
news, I don't get this just like what are they talking about?
All right. I have my last three bits and then you can play us
out. Yeah, you got a lot of clips today, which are like,
Why? Angular Merkel? Okay, well, Angular Merkel, actually, we
should do I'm sorry. This is not I wasn't I should have done
this. Boop, here we go.
Good phones, a landline. And the phone should be made out of
Bakelite.
That's right. Tech News, everybody. Angular Merkel comes
out against net neutrality, in fact calls for special access
fast lanes. Yes. And she's on board German Chancellor Angela
Merkel has laid out her vision for the future of the Internet
and net neutrality proponents proponents won't be pleased says
The Verge buckets. In comments on Thursday in Berlin. Merkel
argued for a two lane internet, one lane for special high
priority service and another that's meant to resemble the
internet as it exists today.
And she says exists today. You mean with Comcast business and
Comcast residential she argues
that fast lanes are necessary for the development of new
advanced uses of the internet like
you mean like Comcast business, like telemedicine,
or driverless cars, according to Merkel, without guaranteed fast
access internet connections, such innovations won't come to
market? Well, yes. In fact, this is how the Internet has always
operated. But except for all the douchebag dupe people who think
that their Netflix is going to go slow. You know, angle I think
angle is she's got a lot of money. So of course, he's being
ridiculed by the verge. Oh, of course, the European Union
currently mandates true net neutrality, though discussions
have been even means Yeah, the discussions have been underway
for the future of internet regulation. Merkel believes her
position is a middle ground. But the idea that gentle traffic
lane will operate under net neutrality depends entirely on
how much bandwidth it receives from internet providers. It
verge it's all that's in the light Patel it doesn't he do the
verge?
Yeah. Yeah. He's one of the guys douchebag.
I have here. On our now a proposed Secretary of Defense,
Ashton Carter, and looking up on this guy, this guy's bad. Well,
he has a very interesting little piece of history. He is a
theoretical physicist. Yes. And he has been involved with
directed energy weapons and other devices for the space
wars.
And yeah, he wanted to he's one of the guys who advocated
bombing North Korea's nuclear facilities.
And in 1984, he wrote a paper titled directed energy missile
defense in space.
This is my kind of game just to fight off the aliens.
No. Well, no, let's module take it straight to that. I just want
to remind you one other thing. I'll remind you what we were
talking about the you know, the the sad fact that the moon
landing original films and videos are are gone. Yeah, it's
a shame I am one of our producers pointed out to me.
Also, the blueprints for all the Saturn V rockets, the lunar
modules, and even the rovers are also all missing.
Nah.
I love that. So we erased the tapes. We lost all the
blueprints of the lunar modules.
One of the most important events in the history of mankind
they've lot is a New York Times article from 1987 where it talks
about that probably lost hunters on for scattered blueprints of
powerful Saturn moon rocket.
So I have the last thing here for me. I've got a bunch of
stuff, but I'll play one more. Because it's kind of a baffling
situation. Obama's sore throat.
Yeah, I heard this and I'm glad you looked at it. See where is.
I don't have Obama sore throat. It's under the Oh for Obama. I
get
and now to the breaking news involving the President this
afternoon he went to the hospital Walter Reed Army
Medical Center complaining of a persistent sore throat
afterwards, the White House revealed the President had had
his throat examined With a scope and then with a CT scan,
ultimately they reported the CT scan was normal, saying he was
inflammation related to acid reflux, and it will be treated
accordingly. So let's bring in ABC chief medical editor, Dr.
Richard, Dr. Richard Besser, so when you have a sore throat
going for a CT scan, that seems like a pretty big move.
There's a lot in this story that didn't seem to hold the whole
truth what you'd normally see normally for a sore throat,
initially, you'll do a test for strep. That goes on for a couple
of weeks, you might do a scope, but not a CT, it may be that
he's a former smoker. He's the president united states, you'll
often see presidents get extra testing,
I think it makes sense when you're dealing with the most
powerful person on earth.
Well, I can CT scans
are like a lifetime of radiation. I think it was
brought in for punishment.
I didn't expect you to say that. You're not doing it right.
Or the X ray machine until it hurts. It's a horrible thing to
do to somebody. Christina, you only get a CT scan when you
absolutely need one. But
there's I think there's a lie in here. Well, there may be more
than one. Christina had a sphincter issue, sweetheart
before y'all laugh with her throat. And she had acid reflux.
And what happens in this case is then your, the, the opening of
your throat, it burns, it's literally burned from the from
the acid that comes up. And she had this as a young child and it
really affected her in severe ways because it hurt to swallow
foods. So she, you know, she was eating poorly. And there was no
no CT scan. And you know, they just an optical device and
looked at it. And she she has a lifetime of you know, she has to
take care of her acid reflux and that she can't eat certain foods
and has to be a careful with it. But there's no CT scan. That's
bullcrap. You can see if you have a sore
throat, no, there's no argument from me. And I don't think
anyone would else would argue then give somebody a CT a CT
scanning because he's the most powerful man in the world. Well,
maybe they gave him a CT scan, because he's the most powerful
man in the world need to be taken down a notch. And
the question is which guy which Obama? Did they do it too? Well,
probably
the main one. The main one.
All right, a main one. All right. I think that's it. I have
a lot of work to do this week, because we have the 1600 pages,
the new defense spending bill, this is the new NDAA. And you
know, there's always stuff in there that has to be looked at.
It's one of the let's play this one last clip then. But this is
just a clue. We've talked about this before. I just want to
remind people that is now being people catching up to the story
that we discussed. And it's the genetic drug story and which
also has a lot of elements that make no sense but play that
more than 100 companies were targeted. Generic drugs account
for 85% of all medicines dispensed in the US that can be
used. They can be used to be a bargain. They used to be a
bargain that is but now the price of some generics are
skyrocketing up by as much as 1,000%. America's Christof
butson reports.
Dr. Sawyer Buckeye has owned this pharmacy in Columbia
Heights for over a decade. And he's never experienced anything
like this before. He serves almost 100 people a day,
predominantly black and Hispanics, going from low income
households in this Metro DC neighborhood pretty much most
and the big drastic change he's talking about is the dramatic
rise in the cost of generic drugs.
The very price so high,
sometimes as much as 100% Even 1,000% Spike. Douglas Hoey is
the CEO of the National Community Pharmacists
Association, a group with 23,000 members, he too is baffled by
the price rises, payments to the pharmacies are staying the same.
And patients are left with the bill and pharmacies are left
having to subsidize big gaps and payment and losing lots of
money. The question is for how long can these independent
pharmacists cover the price gap? And it's if it's not the
patient, it's going to be the employer or the taxpayer.
someone's paying for it. No free lunches, Christof putzel Al
Jazeera
you know all these generics are owned by the big pharmacies
aren't they?
It's a very smart move first of antitrust folks out there in the
Democrats running things they can't stop these guys. So they
bought all the generic companies I'm just jacked the price up the
same as the other price. Same prices generic you can order it
if you want, but you're gonna Oh, I will give you $1 off.
Anyway, it's a scam ice horrible scam.
It's yeah, that's how it goes. Sorry to say that's how it
works. All right, everybody. So that's what I'll be working on.
Not the generics but on the 585 trillion dollar defense spending
bill? Good stuff. The riveting stuff actually to be exact
16 148 pages No, I don't think anyone's read this yet. So
certainly not the lawmakers you know, they're not going to do
it.
It just have to be told it's okay.
I will be commemorating Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day today.
memory of those who perished there, and I will try not to get
the flu, you will don't get a shot, you won't get the flu.
That's the
way to do it. Thank you very much, everybody for listening
coming to you from FEMA Region six here in the capital of the
drone Star State in the morning. I'm Adam curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley where it's kind of gloomy out
but it's not raining. I'm John C. Dvorak. We'll
be back on Thursday right here on no agenda. Bingo, boom, boom,
boom, boom. This I think could be one of the most important
things that we don't know that we don't know. Right? There's
there's the stuff that you know, you don't know and there's the
stuff that you know that you know, and there's the stuff that
you don't know that you know, and but the most destructive can
be the study to paraphrase Donald Rumsfeld, the most
destructive can be the stuff that you don't know that you
don't know there's no winning.
