Oh, you might have your furry friend microchip. Why not your
children? Adam curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Thursday, May
26 2016. time once again for your gizmo nation media
assassination episode eight to eight.
This is no agenda, making mush
out of the Mandela Effect and broadcasting live from the
capital of the drum Star state here in the region six Austin,
Texas in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley, I asked a question, he
say, and it's Thursday. I'm John C. Dvorak. Greg Levin Buzzkill.
Who said ants, I
didn't say ants. You should
ants. It's Thursday. No.
I said it's the I said
ants. It's Thursday. To assign like I said, this Thursday, it
was one of those who can be Shree. I think it was ants.
Okay. The ants are creeping into the show. I think you're right.
You're right. You're right. Well,
I got a phone call this morning. First thing. Oh, for this show.
The garbage will be picked up late today. This is a message.
Thank you. Oh, really? Yeah.
It's like a school closure. Why is that? Why would it be picked
up late?
I don't know. They picked up the garbage early.
But they said it's gonna take they say it's gonna be picked up
lunch.
I think they do this to confuse the public.
This is going to be picked up late and then they pick it up
early. Is that what you just told me?
Yes. Is what he just told you. Oh, that's great. That's
fantastic. Ah,
okay. Oh, I didn't didn't load your clips up
yet. I can do that real quick. Well, yes. Well,
since we're since I'm loading up your clip,
I'm just saying your local it's raining there's storms is
fantastic. People don't live in this. United States. They
probably haven't watched it anyhow. Unbelievable thing for
tornadoes.
A storm in America in America is always great. Yeah,
it's something to see,
particularly
if you're not in it. Well, it's something to see these funnel
clouds. I mean, it's insane. Now Texas
is one not so bad. But tornado chaser. They had three of them
on the ground. At the same time. They're looking around. It's got
a lot of nerve. I mean, Summit, they had one they were showing
this, this one on one of the networks. Because these guys
these tornado chasers, they storm chasers, they sell this
footage.
Oh, yeah. It's busy. It's a real business. Right? It's a
business.
They had one they showed it. And then they did an overlay to fit
this the funnel cloud the size of the cloud coming down. The
tornado was one mile wide was
incredible. But at the same time, though, we have had a
record 127 straight months with no hurricanes. Oh, yeah. 127
straight months and man, were we promised some doozies.
Yeah, we were promised nothing but hurricanes. Nobody got into
it. We were promised these hurricanes and always got shitty
tornadoes.
It's a t shirt waiting to happen in it. Yeah.
Yeah, well, you're in the middle of it kind of your it's the
site, I guess. Yeah.
And we're only getting rain. No. We didn't really get tornadoes
here. I don't think that's particularly Hill Hill Country.
Now. It's not going to happen here.
But it's wet.
Because it's just raining and raining or why No,
it's been great for the past four days, just completely gray
and then it rains and it's just great. And meanwhile, it's 85
degrees. So it's not very comfortable outside.
Oh, that's terrible. Yeah, that's when they show the maps
on the TV. They shows you this. This is huge swath as if
everyone's getting killed but and you're in the swath. But
yes, we're all gonna die. Again, imagine Austin ever getting that
whacked? I didn't have a there was a there's a lot of people
don't know about this. But there's a there was a tornado
that hit Fort Worth some years ago. Uh huh. And it damaged one
of the major buildings in the middle of downtown and it did
twisted it or something. And
this is this must be this is before I lived here so this must
be a long Yes, it's
a while back like I say maybe 10 years ago or more. Somebody's
gonna have to straighten me out on the story because I'm slowly
losing the accuracy of
the story your mind that too.
So they took this building that is right in the middle of
downtown so they twisted this building and they it ruined the
buildings to such an extent that it couldn't be occupied. So stop
being occupied but because it was damaged in a funny way they
can't destroy it. They can't bring the building down because
they don't know what the world's gonna fall they can't nobody's
gonna know
what they don't they don't know because it's so twisted. That's
why
Yeah, yeah.
Bush just had another dividend for
working straighten me out.
You know what the? The obvious answer is just flying airplane
into it. It's it falls straight down and onto itself. Yeah,
there you go. So the way to go
is to now that the recycling guys are here, just don't
vaccinate early.
Hey, let me catch everybody up on I'm still looking into the
Ms. 804 Egypt Air Flight, which is to coin a phrase pun intended
has dropped off the mainstream radar because I don't know they
haven't found a plane that keeps showing the same Bo tattered
clothing over and over again with the untethered pristine
life jacket from Egypt air.
I would I should mention that since I'm back on the three by
three, ah, while I stepped MVC, I've kind of moved them aside
for Deutsche Avella. There hasn't been any there was no
news reports in the last couple of days on this thing
No, and I believe it's multiple fold. Let's recall that when we
had the clip when this first happened, the sources inside the
government the United States Government have said oh, it was
a bomb that was before and this was the first day they were
already saying this of course they were unnamed sources but I
doubt that CNN is making that up someone told them to say that
and now I'm pretty sure that telling him to shut up we have
nothing Shut up go away there's nothing Nothing to see here. You
remember when CNN went insane with with image? Was it
307 307-370-2372
numbers for almost a year? They talked about that?
That's right that was that's the who was so why why on Saturday
Night Live for being an endless story admit 10 No, no, I
understand they have elections to cover as well. But it really
faded to black quite quickly. And it'd be Richard Quest as you
know he he's got work he needs to work he's got to do stuff but
he's around you can fill a slot at least once an hour with an
update. The plane is not found the black boxes are not the no
one's heard a pinion. And they don't really seem very
enthusiastic about finding the plane because they're not
trailing ping receivers, they're sending little submersibles
down. It's a completely different operation than the
previous one.
It's baffling. So here are that notice to to just nothing
there's not they don't even have a follow up. Because I guess
there's nothing to say.
Well, but they they went on CNN went on for a year when they
couldn't find the plane. We have not found this plane. So
So here you're right. Somebody had to tell him to stop. So here
Yeah.
So here are the headlines breaking the captain of flight
msho For as a Muslim linked to major Muslim terrorist involved
in killing Americans in Benghazi. Okay.
Sure. Yeah. That makes sense. Yeah, a captain on an airline in
an airline is also out there floating around in the streets
shooting Okay,
well here is the the irritating thing is there was indeed a an
exercise going on in that very region during the days that
flight flew there. Now it still
doesn't really explain why they haven't found any any wreckage.
Because even if you I mean, you saw what mh 17 looked like and I
believe that was an air to air shoot down not a BUK missile.
But there are big chunks of it. And yeah, it's very deep. But
something is not right. The not trailing for pings that all you
know, they bring this props brings out the orange box again,
I'll put it in the middle of the table. Let's talk about a world
battery 30 days to liberate the
sick and tired of you people. Because I have to sit here and
watch
it see if there's anything so there's really nothing Oh, see,
I had maybe
man you go to the pilots forums.
Oh, the pilot forms? Well, there's there's a lot of and
that's where I am mainly, you know, the pilot forums because
there's no requirement to be a pilot to get in there if they
suck. And there's a journalist trolling all the time. Hey, did
anybody know what happened but definitely have an audio. Yeah,
so that's pretty useless. A lot of Airbus captains, you know,
pontificating about how much better they
are than 780 sevens. 730 sevens.
Yeah, but there's and you know, I all I can say is, why did we
stop covering this? This makes no sense. It's a great story.
People love a missing plane. People love a missing plane.
Come on. They proved it. You could hype that up. Maybe it's
just because of the the election coverage but I don't know. I
don't
think so. The election coverage was going on during the end. It
was better to win the playing first disappeared. I mean, the
one thing that then if you look at the network news or not
really, Election coverage is there. It's not bumping. That
sort of news was bumping every thing is these tornadoes. Yeah,
it's true. The tornadoes because of tornadoes are also very
picturesque.
Fun to look at. Oh, it's scary that I'm seeing a
house blow up right in front of me. This guy yells Yeah, people
love that.
I love that. Okay.
Sadly, I just don't have any more other than the, that's
fine. But also, everyone's really quiet right now. Just no
one's really saying it's
a holiday coming up. Holiday.
We got no time for this crap, you know, speaking, which I
mean, just just to get us into the swing here. And I want
people who listen to this show who are producers to do some
producing and look out for your local news that have packages.
And we've talked about this many times, you'll notice it
immediately because it'll have an intro from your local news.
Well, here's how here's the format in the studio lead in
toss to someone on the street somewhere, just on the street
randomly, just as long as they're on the street. They're
not to be in front and behind anything just on the street.
They'll set it up and they toss into the package. And the
package always includes a resident, but it's never really
said that it's a resident who lives in your town. And you can
tell by the editing of these packages,
right, Jen? And also generally speaking, it's who's this
person? When you see them, it's like, you've never seen them
before on the tour.
No, no, no, no, the intro is still a local reporter on the
street, but then they go in and it's voiceover and that is
usually a different voiceover. And there's the person who does
who's the subject in the package is do is not L from 13th street
downtown now it's just some you know, citizen resident or
whatever. Then they never say where the person is from because
it has to fit into a general package. And I'm not sure who's
making this package but it is being shoved around I want you
to be on the lookout for it.
To me. This is talking about a specific package. Yeah. Yeah,
that I'm
gonna play for you then I'm gonna play for you. I'm gonna
play I'm gonna we're gonna do the whole format the intro from
the studio. The report on the street and we're just talking
about packages in general No, I'm leading into a into a clip
of said package. I want people to be interested. I want people
to be on the lookout for it. This particular package took a
lot of time and clearances. Although I think they may not
have to clear this for news. They put in all kinds of movie
clips to accentuate the concept of what they're talking about.
And it is also a concept near and dear to my heart.
It happens in seconds moms and dads you know that feeling your
child gets lost in a store maybe just wanders off for a second or
two your heart stops though. panic sets in and you think the
worst is happened to most of us but what if you had a secret
weapon an extra layer of safety so to speak? How far would you
go to keep your children secure?
Would you be willing to microchip them? Expert tell us
the technology already exists? Turns out one bay area mother is
all for it. And she shared her story with our Melanie Michael.
Hey guys, good evening to you both you know chances are if you
have a four legged family member at home, it's already
microchipped. And if
so, first, there's a lead in that didn't say bay area but
that she's not identified as such also now with a lower
third. And then they started off by conditioning you and she's
holding on the two dogs in the shot John two dogs. Oh, this is
very normal for your dogs. You might have your furry friend
microchip. Why not your children?
Hey, guys, good evening to you both, you know chances are if
you have a four legged family member at home, it's already
microchipped and if the technology exists to say Fido in
an emergency, what about microchipping your child before
you say no way I would never do that. Here are one mom's story
and here comes the
package. It's the
longest two seconds of your life.
And it's absolute panic.
We've seen it over and over again. Children gone missing
it's terrifying. For Stephanie Rodriguez nearly life is busier
than ever and
the footage is this these movies because of course they can't
don't have the local footage. And then they show a infrared
helicopter shot of and that uses three times in the package of
two cop cars in front of a playground with literally with
the merry go round still twirling with no kids on it. I
love it
with four children including a newborn. She knows scary
situations can happen in an instant. And for her it has
a fatal say my kid. There's there's no step that's too
extreme.
Nothing is too extreme to save my child. I tell you Yeah, we
start by putting a leash on it early. And then nothing's too
extreme.
Stephanie's teenage daughter is a special needs child grown to
wander off and trust strangers for that very reason. Stephanie
wholeheartedly welcomes microchipping, a child's
a small chip, the size of a grain of rice could have
prevented.
Now they're showing the role of someone else holding their hand
out their tragedy.
I think most parents, you know, hindsight would have said I wish
I would have done it. Oh,
destiny is in the minority in our Tampa Bay moms group. Were
other mothers call this too sci fi and invasive, you're putting
a battery in your kid. You're putting a chip in your kid. And
where does it stop?
Okay, that's just the only counterpoint turns out that
technology to microchip your kids has existed since the early
90s.
Don't worry about anything that technology's been around
forever. We know what that is all about.
Is really caught on. Is it a little too science fiction for
you? Very much. So a well known technology expert out of Boston
tells us microchipping poses little to no health risks, and
would act as a barcode of source Oh,
without question that could save a life. reignite a family. Find
a missing Alzheimer's patient
and you can put your money on it and pay with it just like Apple
Pay. I always tell people as
long as you're doing what you feel is best for your child.
You're not really wrong. And guys, this is what we're talking
about the microchip, I don't know if you can see it in my
hand. It's the size of that she has her hand out to grain of
rice, very jazzy grain of rice in her hand, not a microchip,
very small. And the expert that we spoke with actually tells us
that barcodes were introduced in the late 1960s. And back then
people thought this is weighing too invasive and too weird. And
now barcodes are so commonplace that we don't even think about
them. Is this true?
John? I don't remember people being freaked about our code.
Since I've never I went around
talking about barcoding your your your forehead. What is she
talking about? That is invasive and and intrusive.
I died and whites I thought everyone thought they were cool.
In fact, the 90s tattoos with barcode showed up on
on on people. Everybody liked that. So they say
Oh, this was creepy, but now it's accepted. So the what
they're doing here is the drawing the analogy saying well,
it's just like a bar code. Also analogy. Yes. It's just like a
bar code. And everyone thought those were creepy. So don't
worry, but wait to hear when they get back to the studio, how
Cavalier these eight holes are
in the late 1960s. And back then people thought this is way too
invasive and too weird. And now bark.
Stop again. Invasive to what barcodes are used on products.
Yeah, like a can of beans, some cereal, it was just sometimes
maybe on the side of a box car. And there's all kinds of uses
for barcodes. But inventory control is domain use. How is
this got anything to do
with invasive? None?
None whatsoever? I think people thought it was some kind of they
didn't understand that. I guess Look, I don't know. I don't
remember this. I remember thinking Oh, okay. I understand
how it works. You have different size barcodes and represents the
number of digits and numbers. Yeah, but Oh,
no, in the late 1960s. And back then people thought this is no
late
1960s. Okay, that I don't remember.
You do? Yeah. Where people creeped out now?
No, not in the least nobody gave it. Nobody gave a crap. Let's
put it that way to this week of Barclay again, it was used for
inventory.
It's still used for inventory. It's nothing crazy.
Why would it be invasive? Because if somebody's doing
inventory, oh, they're doing inventory. This is invasive. I
don't get what she's talking about. Well, she's like
the late 1960s. And back then people thought this is way too
invasive and too weird. And now barcodes are so commonplace that
we don't even think about them anymore.
Again, this is really good. I knew it. I really detest this
sort of analysis.
Well, it's not analysis. It's PR. I just don't know who for
but no, no, the whole thing. This whole package is PR for
some product, obviously. But But no, the throw these kinds of
these kinds of conclusions at this is analysis when she says
what it did back then it was this and this and this. That's
analysis. And that analysis is wrong. It's not even close to
being accurate to what anything that was actually going on. And
the fact that they do this constantly. And you see this all
the time in the media, where somebody who's half they don't
know what they're talking about. It's like when at least when I'm
talking about the crooked building in Fort Worth, I'm
saying I don't know what I'm talking about. I don't know
anything about the building anymore. I forgot.
There's different rules for podcasters. Well, you
have podcasts, nobody cares. But But this sort of thing is all is
is so galling to me and you see it on in fact, you see it on a
lot of podcasts, tech podcasts, for example. You find a lot of
people that are just making stuff up, see or
giving their unrequested opinions as business
executives. I think Apple should spend their money
what you're it's one of your pet peeves and I think apples way
Apple should be run with Apple should do next. Hey, when were
you a CEO?
Hey, you So just talking about that now. I'll get to it later.
I get there later. But remind me I have something to say about
comic books. Remember, remind me. Oh, god. 30 seconds left, we
can't seem to get through it
way too invasive and too weird. And now barcodes are so
commonplace that we don't even think about them anymore. The
expert tells us this will happen sooner rather than later. Now,
the studio No, you said that the technology has been around since
the 90s or whatever. But I mean, have companies actually tried
this. That's a different scenario. Two of them. Two of
them. As a matter of fact, both of those companies ended up
going to fund they tried initial public offerings. It did not go
through but you can bet somewhere someday, someone is
going to pull this off. Because microcosm this guy for a while.
interesting to think about Melanie mica live in Tampa.
Oh, that's interesting to think about Matt, let's go to the next
item on the prompter. I wasn't thinking about it at all. It
wasn't it wasn't interesting. He wasn't thinking about
it. horrible man. Bad. Bah, bah, bah. Yeah. So like that you
want to be you want our producers to be on the lookout
for packages that involve these chips. And there's probably
gonna be a lot of these are video press releases that are
rejiggered into into news stories.
Yeah, well, there's another one roaming around which do I have
it? Yes. And it's, uh, I was gonna save for tech news. Let's
not do it as tech news. Let's do it as propaganda news, this
story showed up everywhere, almost in print a lot in print
and almost exclusively with the same type of angle.
I knew. What Wait.
Can I guess what it is? Yeah. Let's go ahead.
Using floppy disk, yes, yes.
A new report reveals the US military uses eight inch floppy
disks to protect the country. The plastic storage devices from
the 1970s are used in a computer system that coordinates
operational functions of the nation's nuclear. The report
from the Government Accountability Office shows the
Defense Department system is one of the 10 oldest IT investments
and urges federal agencies to address aging legacy products. A
Department spokeswoman says the floppy drives are scheduled to
be replaced with secure digital devices by the end of 2017. The
bottom line betting on outdated technology to protect America.
This is I have a version of what's your version. This one is
old computers. The angle here is cost taxpayers.
A lots changed since the 1960s.
This is good. Wait a minute. Wait, is this a packet? This
must be a package this is network? Oh, okay. Well, this is
good.
Yeah, they put some effort into it. Now, you'll agree with me
that this is for one thing and one thing only the way it works.
And I've learned a lot because we're gonna talk about this in
election news. The when the inspector general for a
department comes out with the Inspector General's report, and
we got a lot of them coming out right now.
politicians
and media you miss it really abused the information. I read
this report. And the only thing that really talking about
changing is the storage device. That's all they're talking
about. They're not talking about replacing the COBOL machines
that run this. And you know what? I'm happy.
I am to I agree. There's no man those COBOL machines works
fine. And yeah, almost no conecting.
Now, I want to say that this was I believe the meme of the week.
Yeah. And it was played everywhere. And they played it
over and over and over everything. In fact, even stack.
Oh, really?
He sent me an
email about it. Because as though it was that he got
suckered as far as I'm concerned.
Sorry. Yeah. And obviously it happens. It happens. We all we
get suckered all the time.
It gets suckered all the time. But you see this and then it was
just inundated with this bullcrap about two floppy disks.
He asked me and I do, by the way, have a box. And I only have
a box of eight inch floppies but not devise of eight. So I got
the big ones. Yeah. And I have a whole box of them. And I think
it's like 100. And so I mainly went on eBay and see what these
things are worth because I always figured I'd sell them.
And I think they're probably worth the good ones. The fresh
ones. The ones that have never been used from verbatim are big.
bucks a pop. Yeah, really not probably in my best interest to
have kept them for so long. But because I think they were five
bucks when they first came out too. So it's really
I know that once the three and a half inch floppies came out you
had shirts made in Thailand, specifically with a shirt pocket
that fit a floppy?
Yes, I did. Genius that was in Thailand. It was Taiwan. Okay,
Taiwan. And yes, I did and then I had that shirt that same
pattern,
but did you have it for the eight inch floppy this? That
would have been really cool. Now you're really nerdy I mean,
yes, I got eight inches.
No, but I had the shirt read done some years later so it fit
a CD. Thing and and is it was designed so I just really mostly
for a joke because I didn't steal people's CDs but it fit a
CD perfectly and within the case and it it fell just below the
top of the pocket line perfect. So you could drop a stolen CD in
your pocket, and it wouldn't be you wouldn't see it. And I just
thought that was a good shirt.
Let me play your clip. So we get that out of the way.
A lots changed since the 1960s
car of the year.
This was the number one car with my Frigidaire. This was the
latest fridge and this was how we watch TV. But tonight we
learned something hasn't changed. museum like computers,
even floppy disks are being used for vital programs from Social
Security to nuclear weapons. Like this old missile silo. A
new report by the Government Accountability Office estimates
$60 billion was spent last year just to maintain and repair
these aging systems.
Why put up with a set that isn't really up to date?
It's a question we took right to Capitol Hill today.
We're taking kids that are graduating with degrees in
information technology, and we're dumbing them down in order
to learn what they were doing back in 1960.
Whoa, how wrong is that statement? Yeah, let me see some
script kiddie throw down some COBOL dude. Yeah, we're dumbing
them down. Alright,
you kind of think that one good trick, The Best Buy and you'd be
better off than what you're doing now.
And we did just that this flash drive that I just bought could
hold more than 3 million, these little floppy disks. And it cost
about seven and a half million dollars less than buying that
many old disks.
And Mary Bruce with us live tonight. Mary, that was
stunning. $60 million in taxpayer money spent on those
aging computers. What are the agencies telling you any changes
coming?
Well, David, at least one agency tells us tonight they agree it
now costs more to maintain all this than it does to update it.
And they are hoping to make major updates before the end of
the next fiscal year. David All right,
Mary Bruce tracking your money tonight.
Thank you know what is so incredibly sad about all of
this. And that this goes into another thing IG report, which I
need to play. When it comes to technology, in politics, the
news media, there's people really do not have an
understanding of technology. They are the absolute to them.
It's just, you know, they have a screen everything else behind it
is black box. When we talk about a server, most people who listen
to the show, I think, because we've talked about email
servers, specifically, an image pops up in your head of a
server. And for a lot of people, they already understand how it
works and how email this is this is not being taught in school,
how all this stuff really works. It's not that hard under the
hood to figure it out. So here you have the same tactic taken
which you know, taxpayer money, that's the ding ding ding. And
then it's, it's out. It's old. It's outdated, compared to old
crazy stuff very much like that other package. Oh, it was old
and crazy. back then. It was the old technology. Now it's a new
technology. And this is of course going to be used at once
we conditioned the American public for a
big money gouge.
So I always make big money guy, huge
money gouge debit. This is a big one common with this. And again,
I
know they can't move, you know, it seems to me that there's
potential to make money. By I don't know if there's any new
COBOL compilers that are available for the current crop
of IBM does all this. It's all IBM
machine. So IBM can still do all the old stuff. And I liked it as
the as 400
was a great machine. It still was a great machine. Do they
still sell it as 400?
I'd be surprised if they didn't, but I don't think so. Which is a
funny way of putting it
but I'd like to point out the reason why your name is an all
caps on your boarding pass is because the airlines are all
using the same type of mainframes running or programmed
in COBOL I don't know if they're running as for hundreds O S,
which has not its OS what does it call it doesn't matter.
I forgot does
you know what is that going to be next? You don't watch the
airlines not upgrade that.
To JetBlue never use the old systems that you need the new
systems that came in which are Windows based which are
problematic. I think, like JetBlue is system made sure is
not using any old crap because it was a new airline. They're
not going to buy it
I don't I don't know what they're using. But my JetBlue
tickets are in all caps. So
I'm not so sure. Well, that may be a requirement you don't know.
Well, if you want to talk to all
of the terror watch lists and all that you're integrating on
the back end with with the government bureau, you're,
you're in an old we're older
world. Anyway,
just saying that I'm very happy that nukes are run on COBOL.
Please keep it that way.
Yeah, rather than JavaScript. Which is all the kids learned
today. I mean, most of the coders are just running
JavaScript just to run front end stuff, often using the browser's
to do all kinds of memory. They can do a lot of fancy stuff, but
most of it to me is jumps all over the screen. I find it
annoying. Yeah, did you get one you get somebody that's got just
a little tweak a bad code and, and you you move the cursor over
anything jumps all over the place, goes crazy, and then you
move it stops. That sort of thing just drives me nuts.
So another IG report came out. This was a lot of news. This was
almost as good as an airplane coming down. This was the
Inspector General, the State Department's report, titled
Office of the Secretary evaluation of email records
management and cybersecurity requirements. And this was, was
touted quite widely as Oh, my goodness. Now, this is a day
record for Hillary day record. There are a few things I would
like to read, but also understand that this is a report
as it says this is not Hillary Clinton's email, no evaluation
of email records management and cybersecurity requirements.
That's very different from a man's but Hillary's email. What
what the what the Inspector General found the Federal
Records Act requires appropriate management and preservation of
federal government records regardless of physical form or
characteristics that document the document the organization
functions, policies, decisions, procedures, and essential
transactions of an agency. For the last two decades, both
department of state policy and federal regulations have
explicitly stated that emails may qualify as federal records.
So there's just pulling a few things out from this report. For
instance, if you want to connect to the internet at all, to an
even I guess, even if you're using a Blackberry, they, I
guess they have some form of VPN, since the end of 2002. The
FA M and FM is abbreviation for some state department saying
about communications. The FAA has required all department
facilities to use the department's primary Internet
connection open net to establish internet connectivity, you can
just see the meeting, hey, we need a VPN we're gonna call it I
don't know. It's called something that we want to buy
into like a transparency. No, no, no open. Yeah, open it.
Yeah, that sounds good. Department further
regulated access to the internet by establishing rules in 2004,
addressing the use of non departmental internet
connections and department facilities. Since 2002.
Department employees have been prohibited from auto forwarding
their email to a personal email address to preclude inadvertent
transmission of SVU email on the internet. That's their private
email system. And then there's a list. There's lots of mentions
of Hillary Clinton in here as when she was Secretary.
Secretary Clinton by Secretary Clinton's tenure, the
department's guidance was considerably more detailed and
more sophisticated beginning in late 2005. And continuing
through 2011, the department revised the FA M and issued
various memoranda, specifically discussing the obligation to use
department systems in most circumstances and identifying
the risk of not doing so. I'm gonna stop you there when I need
to read this last line. Secretary Clinton cybersecurity
practices accordingly must be evaluated in light of these more
comprehensive directives. And here it is. In November 2010,
Secretary Clinton and her deputy chief of staff for operations
discuss the fact that Secretary Clinton's emails to Department
employees were not being received. We talked about this
months ago, the Deputy Chief of Staff emailed the Secretary that
quote, we should talk about putting you on State email or
releasing your email address to the department so you're not
going to spam. In response, the Secretary wrote, quote, let's
get separate addresses or device but I don't want to risk any of
the personal being accessible. Oops. And then it goes on to say
that she refused to use multiple devices and kept using one
device. And her practices were breaking the rules that she
absolutely knew about. Do you want to say something before I
play this little
clip? I just want to say something before you drift too
far from the one little tidbit that you mentioned Okay, which
is the 2005 She keeps the rules were changed and you had three
dates in there. You had 2002 For now, 2005. They had changed the
rules and regulations away things have to go
under her nose Oh, sorry, under her tenure, I
think, No, she wasn't in there doesn't fly. All right. She got
no, no, no. 2008 Yeah, you're right. But these rules were
changed. And but she keeps referring back all the old
secretaries used to do it. And then she keeps mentioning Colin
Powell. Yeah. But this is all pre 2005. Yes, they changed the
laws and rules and regulations and everything in between, since
Powell. You can't throw about Burbidge. You know, Tyler, back
in the day, good. Grover Cleveland, he didn't didn't have
a problem like this. It's just ridiculous. That's her main
excuse
now. So let me just cut to the chase on this one, then we can
get into the details of that. The every report has a
conclusion. And the conclusion is about the report. It's not of
the conclusion is not about Hillary Clinton's specifically
about Hillary Clinton's breaking the rules. It is what they
should do at the end. So it's a pretty long conclusion. Looking
forward here. Yeah, but it's, it's as though we this is how I
was doing. We need to be careful that we no one does this kind of
stuff. And certainly no personal servers. No, it's a it's a
conclusion for what the title of the document says. Okay. Office
of the Secretary evaluation of email records management day,
okay. You okay, right. Listen to our friend Barbara Boxer.
Who's coming and man, she's a dick.
This is this was a six minute interview. She's just a nasty
human being. She scoffs and she's arrogant that she talks
down about people and it's all Hillary, this and Hillary, that
my buddy, Hillary, this Hillary, and she's going to lie about
this
report, State Department's inspector general report, its
review of the whole email issue has determined that Hillary
Clinton did not comply with the State Department rules when it
comes to her use of a private email server at the State
Department. Your reaction to this report?
Well, what you're leaving out of that is the State Department's
this IG report states in its conclusion that every single
Secretary of State did the same thing. And I have it here. I'm
no, no, that does not conclude that data. No, because not every
single Secretary of State had their own email server.
Same thing. And I have it here. I'm not reading it. I want to
show you viewers. Now
this is interesting. So she's holding up this report, just one
or two pages. When she says something different
that every single Secretary of State did the same thing. And I
have it here. I'm not reading it. I want to show you viewers,
why does she say I'm not reading it?
Where did that come from? I'm gonna show this to your viewers.
I'm not reading it. I have no
idea which is what is what she said that I think the blimp
cover her as well. She said I wasn't reading it
subliminally she's doing something. I don't think she
realizes. But anyway, here she is.
Terry upstate did the same thing. And I have it here. I'm
not reading it. I want to show you viewers. This is the
conclusion. They don't even mention Hillary's name. They
basically say the Department of State and the Office of the
Secretary since Colin Powell did not follow the exact rules of
preserving the electronic communications. So I think
that's the key here for Hillary is what we now know is this has
been a systemic problem, period, all through since Colin Powell,
and people can take that to heart Hillary is stated, looking
back on it, she should have done things differently. She did hand
over 55,000 emails, which
was 55,000 pages, it was not 55,000 emails, a small but
important detail, done things
differently. She did hand over 55,000 emails, which by the way,
her predecessors destroyed all their personal email. So yeah, I
mean, I think at the end of the day, when people read the
conclusion, what they'll find out is that the Department of
State and the Office of the Secretary of State going back to
Colin Powell did not keep and retain these records, print out
each email, keep them in a file, and hopefully going forward,
which is what the inspector general says they will do. So
she's just taking the conclusion which has nothing to do with it.
It's not like an investigation of Secretary Clinton's emails,
just a conclusion about how crappy the department is run.
Which is true. If you read the report. It's not not all that
great.
Anyway, can't be. It's impossible.
This played very differently. And I was surprised by this.
Andrea Mitchell dialed into the morning, Joe Show and Andrea
Mitchell. I mean, she is besides being elite, married to what's
his name? Go Green sparing span. This is she's up there in a lead
echelon, and she is pulling no punches when it comes to this.
And she's really saying, yeah, she used to be, am I mistaken
that she was always kind of a Hillary supporter.
Until recently, I don't know that she's still not.
The first interview we showed was the one that you did with
her and she says time and time and time and time and time In
time again, it was allowed was it allowed,
it was not allowed to not return those records before she left
the State Department she violated the official records
act, according to her own State Department IG appointed by
President Obama. What you have shown just now mica is
completely undercuts the argument she's been making for
more than a year, just as she is trying to persuade voters that
she's not untrustworthy. I think the most surprising and in some
ways, shocking thing is their reaction, claiming that this is
the same as with former secretaries did the comparison
they're making to Colin Powell, the facts are that Colin Powell
was the first Secretary of State to ever use email, he used it
specifically to try to launch this the State Department into
the new century and try to get people to communicate by email.
He was using it as an example. He did use some personal emails.
He didn't always separate them. But it was a completely
aboveboard. Everybody in the state of Oregon knew what he was
doing. It was not, in fact, violating a rule that was put in
place under Clinton Not, not after she left was put in place
under Flynn. And she was warned beforehand of decades of this
Records Act that prohibits you to leave the State Department
and leave any agency and not turn over your your your
records. So there are so many flaws in their argument. And you
know, the politics we'll have to see how how that plays out. But
I don't see how this is anything but devastating.
Devastating I tell you,
Well, if you want to play that sort of thing I want to hear is
talking about devastating. This is an interesting this is
especially contrasted to to boxer, but this is the
anything anything is contrast and box.
This is what they think in Germany, this is the report,
they bring the report, they discuss a little bit and then
they follow up with the with the Deutsche velas American
correspondent and his interpretation of what what,
what all this means?
Yes, that's a very good question. Because I went
through, I read over report 78 pages I went through, and
honestly, I couldn't honestly, I worked so hard, and really a lot
of really new information. Let me just quote, one sentence, the
Inspector General found that her practices failed to comply with
the State Department's policies meant to ensure that federal
record laws are followed. And of course, you can also put it in
the into a nutshell and basically say, she broke the
law. She didn't comply with the rules. She the former Secretary
of State who has to make sure that all the people who work for
the State Department, she broke the law. And to answer to your
question to answer your question, I think what makes it
so dangerous? Now it's official.
It's official, and it begs the question then me what is this
going to mean for her campaign?
It means Bill Bennett gets sick pretty soon
won't go away. It's really a big problem for her. Donald Trump,
the Republican nominee in just gave a speech in California.
He's already using it. And I think Trump will continue to do
that Clinton said she was cooperating with the inspector
general, but when you talk to his office, oh, look through the
report, you will see that the opposite quite the stupid
Inspector General said Clinton and her aid. Were not
cooperating with investigation. What makes it so dangerous, it
fits into the narrative. Everybody else has to comply
with the raw with with the law, not she Hillary is above the
law. And that's the reason why so many Americans think she is
arrogant. Not a likable person.
All right. Correspondent on the story for not likable person,
indeed.
And the thing that I got out of that was he mentioned this one
little I think it's minor, at least from our perspective, but
it's probably not as minor as we would think in the comment that
it's official. Yeah, I think that's very interesting because
the report not making it to us it was just like Well, we
already knew she did this but now it's official that has an
impact on a lot of people. Like i
i agree by retos Yeah, absolutely.
The report is really nothing like he said there wasn't a
there's nothing really new in there that we don't know already
knew. Now there's a couple of interesting way he get going
with what you're saying because I have a couple of interesting
observations that have to do more with the who's like backing
who nowadays Yeah, seems great, but we're having some that you
just did that with Andrea Mitchell.
ABC Wait, is this a three by three? This
year you might as well say I
was done bowling three by three. Experiment by JC comparing
stories from ABC
Last fall, it's time for the never ending three by three,
John C. Dvorak checks three out, and three times three is in now
in our 30th week. Let's
let's play a couple of these things about Clinton and how
they they're presented. CVS, for example, has been very pro
Hillary. And I think that there was a shakedown or something
that didn't go well. It didn't go right and
shake it out. Someone tried to shake down Clinton or the other
way around. Yeah,
no, they tried to shake down Clinton. That would be my guess.
I mean, because advertising money is needed. And I mean, I
don't know. So it could have been a lot of different things.
But I'm noticing a twist as a change and I want you to play
this. This is the Clinton email part of the of the story on CBS
getting
access to her personal information than to Cordis as
more
what I did was allowed by the State Department but
it Clinton has never said Who authorized her use of a private
email server and today we learned why the internal audit
found no evidence that the Secretary requested or obtained
guidance or approval. The report said Diplomatic Security
officials did not and would not have signed off because the
arrangement violated policies implemented in 2005. There were
no security breaches. Clinton has long insisted her home
server was secure. But the report cites emails from her
private technology advisor warning in January 2011, that he
had to shut down the server because he believed someone was
trying to hack us. And while they did not get in, I didn't
want them to have the chance to later that day, he sent a second
message. We were attacked again. So I shut the server down for a
few minutes. State Department it staffers who expressed concerns
about Clinton setup were rebuffed. One was told by higher
ups, the matter was not to be discussed any further. Another
was instructed never to speak of the Secretary's email system.
Again, I made it clear I'm more than ready to talk to anybody
anytime. Despite her vow to cooperate with a separate FBI
investigation. Clinton and most of her top aides refused to be
interviewed for this State Department report. And she
didn't answer our shouted questions today.
Secretary Clinton your reaction to the inspector general's
report, but her campaign chose to view the report in a positive
light
Press Secretary Ryan Fallon,
I think the report today backs up much of what we were saying
and includes an appropriate amount of context about how
widespread the use of personal email was. So I actually think
the report today puts a lot of those questions to bed based on
how fair it was in explaining that the use of personal email
was widespread and done by her predecessors, including
Secretary
Powell. This dovetails very nicely into a clip I have
questions for the spokes whole of the Secretary of the State
Department, not Kirby. But the other guy. What's his name?
No, douche,
douche ImageNet. Do some big baggy. And so here, here's where
is it. I left the pause in I take out a lot of pauses pauses
in our clips, because we only have so much time. And it's
boring to listen to. I left this one in
there were a hack attempts on her server. How did that not
bring the reassessment that maybe this isn't, and then I
apparently just got plugged back in. How did that not bring the
reassessment that maybe this wasn't the best strategy
right there, when you hear a journalist say and apparently
was just plugged right back in. This shows that it truly is
important to realize these people had no understanding of
the
technology. You know,
you have it because it's been your life. I have it because I
grew up with it in my life. But other people who decide to go
politics, or news spokesmodel they didn't learn any of this.
They do not understand the basic workings of it. So when you hear
this is a travesty for journalism, privacy. So just
pulled back in strategy.
I don't know it again. Um, I, you know, I don't know if the IG
specifically addresses the security of her
system. Bucha says that she never told anybody about
were hack hack attempts or that but none of them were
successful. How do you
know that none of them were successful. I would just have to
refer you to the How do you know that because the report does not
say that none of them were successful. Hmm.
I apologize. Actually, I misspoke. But I will say but I
just would refer you to Secretary Clinton. Now
luckily, there's someone awaken this gang team to
for questions about the security of our system. One One other
question.
I want to follow up on Brad's question, you with regard to
hacking attempts? You have previously confirmed, have you
not that there were efforts to hack into the Secretary's email?
I think we have. Yeah. But I'm not 100%. Sure. But I mean,
hacking. I mean, right. But none of them. That's why I believe
that none of them were successful. We have, I think,
addressed that before.
So here's my next question. Because you then Brad asked you,
how do you know that they weren't successful? And you
said, I misspoke. I apologize. And I just want to understand Do
you have any reason to think that there was this? No, no,
no, what I what I would have been Brad pointed out was the
the OIG report. What I was saying I misspoke was thank you
for giving me the chance to clarify I do I do report doesn't
address specifically the security of her system,
including whether or not any of the reported attempted hacks
were successful. And for that, I would just have to refer you to
her team to talk about her teams that were and whether any more
successful,
but to your knowledge,
or knowledge. They were they were not. But I don't know.
That's a comprehensive knowledge.
Wow. Yeah, well, email
servers.
Now. It's hackable. Yeah, it's
a continuous battle. Certainly with a Chinese man, or at least
stuff coming from China. Let's put it that way. Here's before
you go get more a three by three. You. Yeah.
Yeah. Roll it out.
Well, you said something else. You had some military wives?
Well, yeah. Fox News.
The report itself said, there were things that were not turned
over right away. And in fact, one of the emails that did not
come out publicly in the trenches that were given to
reporters for this is important, was one that said in November
2010, Secretary Clinton and her deputy chief of staff for
operations discussed the fact that Secretary Clinton's emails
to Department employees were not being received the Deputy Chief
of Staff emailed the Secretary, that quote, we should talk about
putting you on State email or releasing your email address to
the department. So you're not going to spam in response, the
Secretary wrote, let's get separate address or device but I
don't want any risk of the personal being accessible. That
was never released to reporters. I had a personal server, we
should make that clear.
So there you go. I did not realize that had never been
released to reporters, that particular email, how
convenient.
Of course.
Okay, let's get a couple of these out of the way this this
is a homage to play this PBS wrap on the Clinton I think this
is the Clinton Trump of back and forth. Let's play this in
Seward.
And beyond the details of the report, there is of course, the
politics of Clinton's of Secretary Clinton's emails. And
while the issue was followed her throughout the campaign on the
Republican side, new protests, some of the violent have swarmed
around the GOP stop
that was stopped. That's gonna go someplace else. Yeah. You
want to talk about the protests. You want to wait with? No, no, I
want to wait, wait, because I still have yet to get to my
point, which is going to be the switcheroo that's taking place
at ABC. So let's play the Hillary email. I mean, a CBS but
also ABC, I think ABC and CBS right now both into the Trump
camp. I can't. I'm just getting too much evidence. Listen to
this Hillary email complete on ABC in time
Hillary Clinton under fire tonight, a scathing new report.
A State Department investigation now ha.
What scathing did you did listen to the adjectives. Yeah.
It was a pretty straightforward report,
wasn't it? It's just a report and it points out that the
cheating escaping the right word, no, no escaping by No.
book of knowledge. She didn't hear me book of knowledge,
definition of scathing.
The term scathing means marked by harshly abusive criticism.
Yeah, that's not in there of our harshly abusive criticism. No,
no. Go to sleep. Bogdanov didn't under
fire tonight a scathing new report. A State Department
investigation now finding she broke the rules with her private
email server. Clinton did not answer questions today on this
but tonight her spokesman is talking saying she did nothing
different than the Secretaries of State who came before her.
Here's ABC Cecilia Vega.
And I saw this guy everywhere. And he keeps saying, Oh,
everybody use personal email. It's so insulting. He's
trying to push this but it's not working.
But we know that this is very different Healy Vega.
Tonight Hillary Clinton slammed by State Department invest
laughing she
slammed
book of knowledge definition of slammed. Sorry,
I don't know the answer to your question exactly. Never
requested or obtained permission to conduct government business
on her private server, even though she had an obligation to
do so. Clinton has repeatedly promised to co operate with the
FBI investigation into those emails. I'm more than ready to
talk to anybody anytime. I'm happy to answer any questions
that anybody might have anytime you want to talk to me, here I
am, but she refused to talk to State Department investigators
and so did her close aide whom Aberdeen Clinton has said that
private server women
she refused to talk
to them. She talked to the FBI. Oh, everybody all that all the
Clinton Knights have refused to talk to the State Department.
Oh, wow. Wow.
Most transparent in history
aide Huma Aberdeen. Clinton has said that private server was
never hacked, but the State Department investigation did
uncover and attempted hack multiple Clinton staffers
sounding alarms about it. One instructing her team not to
email Clinton anything sensitive, saying she would
explain more in person Clinton's campaign points out the new
report also shows another Secretary of State used a
private email account to a spokesman tweeting her personal
email use was not unique at State Department. I tried to ask
about it today. Secretary Clinton, why didn't you
cooperate with the IG investigation? She ignored all
questions.
Now you notice we played this the previous report which was
CBS and we also had the shouting reporter as a me which is always
fun. Yeah, well, blah, blah, blah. And they they ignore and
it was fine by the Andre. I was actually stunned when I saw the
shouting reporter for a second time on another network. Anyway,
go on.
She ignored all questions her campaign moving on. While
Clinton today appeared on Ellen, with her SNL doppelganger. Hi,
Ellen. I'm
Hillary Rodham Clinton. Every day we face hard choices like
which statement blazer to wear.
And Cecilia Vega joins us tonight from California as well.
And Cecilia the State Department investigators said today that
Hillary Clinton did not cooperate with this
investigation. But we know that she has promised to cooperate
with the FBI. Any word when she'll sit down with the FBI
was even campaign sources tell me that sit down has not yet
happened indeed. And there is no date set for one yet. But we do
know that her top aides including whom Aberdeen have
been interviewed by the FBI that is assigned David, that this
investigation could be nearing completion.
Cecilia Vega with us as well.
All right now. Yeah.
Just to make the point clear that because I'm not talking
about that's what you said about these about these people taking
sides.
I know you're talking about who's covering for who. Now,
I want to play this, this is a little different. I would I
would also like to play the CBS clip where they they open it up
with when they started to talk about the Clinton versus Trump
and they they start and play. Crooked Hillary crooked Hillary
crooked Hillary, they have Trump saying it three times. And then
they say she's the crooked is first and ever. They are
allowing this meme to fester. And I think he's gonna help him
by the way.
And while we're on it, let's just say that we've been calling
Elizabeth Warren Pocahontas for years. Yes, for years now. And
now I can't do it anymore. Thanks, Trump. You can do it?
No, no, of course not people who just come in like, Oh, why are
you using the Trump thing now? It was ours. Oh, that's true. We
can't do that.
He said listen to the show. All of a sudden they think we're
copying be
called stooges. Hey, little entre mon quickie quickies.
Because, of course, as I'm watching, and we have a lot of
stuff going on, where we have, we just had so many different
things happening at the same time that really confused the
news networks, MSNBC, and much more still
had a very busy political news morning.
But again, we're going to begin with that breaking news we told
you about at the top. Right now out of Pennsylvania, Bill
Clinton is set to arrive at a suburban excuse me, Bill Cosby
is set to serve us to arrive at a suburban Philadelphia
courthouse
Any moment now for a key hearing in his criminal sex assault
case.
It's interesting how the mind works, isn't it?
That's interesting, because it's it segues right into my clip.
I have another one. But
can I do another quickie? Okay,
I think it'll segue into your clip. This is when CNN cut live
to the protests, which we need to talk about. And that was in
where were these protests in California.
There were two groups there was a new man there was Anna Hi man
in New Mexico. Albuquerque, I believe.
Ah, yes, I think this is this may be I think this is New
Mexico. Oh, hold on for a moment. We've just reestablished
our contact with Dan Simon. He's outside the convention hall or
where are you dead? block away from the main audio. Stand by
Dan Simon. I want to get back Do you so much? You can just see
the panic. Cut his mic on his mind. Good to be here, bro.
Cut his mic. Okay, that doesn't segue
at all.
So he ruined. I'm so sorry.
Go back and play that other clip again. I'm so sorry about that.
I don't know how you got that to work? Well, I could make it
work. No, no, I use. I'm talking about Bill Clinton.
Right and that's where
that segues into Bill Clinton, much more still had a very busy
political news morning. But again, we're gonna begin with
that breaking news we told you about at the top. Right now out
of Pennsylvania, Bill Clinton is set to arrive at a suburban
excuse me, Bill Cosby.
Okay, Bill Cosby, Brooklyn. Yeah, so
we get this story played on CBS. This is Kenneth Starr. Oh, yes.
Again, a star as they
write up the road from me at Baylor. Yeah.
And they make it sound like he's a rapist or something the way
they do this, but But what this? This is a piece of very
interesting propaganda, as far as I can tell, and it indicates
to me that we were seeing a switch at CBS from from
hating Clinton hating Trump to hating Clinton.
I don't know Kenneth Starr. Yeah. Baylor rapes
the man who wants investigated President Bill Clinton sexual
misdeeds, now finds himself at the middle of an investigation
involving sexual assault.
Yeah, you know, the one that when I heard that, because, of
course, I saw this, you know, I immediately thought, wait a
minute. That can't be right.
I think Matt Don Baylor reports, Kenneth Starr could lose his job
as president of Baylor University in Waco, Texas.
Okay, stop right there. So I want to I want to take this
apart. Now, you already saw the thing where they're, they're
associated Clinton with Bill Cosby. Guy, and that was a
mistake.
But that but that's how the brain works. It's interesting.
But what we have here is a non story. This is not a story. I
didn't see anybody else running. This is what this is. And it's
supposedly about Kenneth Starr maybe losing his job, which
there's really no connection in this story. This is not about
listening to this with it in mind. For anyone who wants to
study. This is propaganda. This is a hit piece against Bill
Clinton.
And yeah, to discredit the investigation of Kenneth Starr.
No, no.
This is true. This is the show that CBS has switched over,
they're going after Clinton. This is a hit piece on Bill
Clinton it dredges up the past reminds us of what went on in
the past, okay. And it gives us the kind of thing where a
crooked Hillary who is enabler during this whole time comes to
the fore in the brain. You're now thinking because it's not by
Kenneth Starr at all this bull has not to nobody gives a shit
about Kenneth Starr getting fired from Baylor there's not a
story. It's
it's a it's a vehicle it's a vehicle.
This is a vehicle to remind people that Clinton was a
douchebag and he's not the greatest guy in the world and
then and it gives license for Trump to go after him to go
after Hillary because they you get Hillary you get bill you get
Hillary in the White House you get Bill in the White House now
all this stuff I mean that the only way of course you know the
only way out of this but by Bill this whole piece was a
outrageous to me. I watched him with just I was stunned and
this was when I worked on CBS, PBS. All in
on Hillary until this day in a day other piece. I just played
it showing it the same thing they were they're really went
after with all kinds of language. Now this piece, just
they bring back everything is every bill bad thing about Bill.
Here we go.
Over the last seven years, the nation's largest Baptist
University has been plagued by allegations of rape and sexual
assault. At least six women have accused eight Baylor football
players of violence.
I hope that people don't have to deal with this in the future. In
March,
Jasmine Hernandez filed a lawsuit claiming after she was
raped. The school ignored her pleas for counseling and justice
school completely neglected my knees and I didn't realize that
they were were federally required to sort of address
these issues differently than they did.
linebacker Devin Elliot was convicted of raping Hernandez
and is serving a 20 year sentence defensive and Sam
Aquata who was convicted of raping a female soccer player.
The school's president is Kenneth Starr, who was accused
by several students of failing to respond to reports of sexual
assaults. I don't know to what extent missile wins he was being
guided by Star became well known in the 90s as the independent
counsel who investigated President Clinton's relationship
within White House intern Monica Lewinsky. Ah yeah, nice. not
have
sexual relations with
beautiful stars report on that affair eventually led to only
the second presidential impeachment in US history.
Baylor will not comment on whether Kenneth Starr will step
down as president. Charlie the university is currently
reviewing an independent report on how the rape allegations were
handled.
Thanks dawn today Attorney General Loretta Lynch said,
oh wait play actually this little thing at the end I think
is actually a kicker.
The rape allegations were handled.
Thanks, dawn today, Attorney General Loretta Lynch said the
US will seek the death penalty against Dylann Roof roof. Okay,
yeah. I just started throwing in the death penalty.
Just add to it just a nice little emotions that
you get. First you get this they show you they show you they have
the video of Bill Clinton lying to the American public. I did
not have sexual relations with that. And then they and then
they mentioned so to become the only the second president
impeached in history. I mean, this was a absolute hit piece
against Bill Clinton. It had nothing to do with Star
and meanwhile, when you think that some of the Clinton
operatives will be helping Van Jones. You remember Van Jones?
He's this prince his best friend. Yeah. I'm used to
hanging out with Prince all the time. Yeah, he's on the phone.
Someone needs to call him from the Hillary camp and say, shut
up. You're not helping
Mike. This attack this repeated attack backfire on the Trump
camp.
At some point. What is Trump doing, talking about anybody's
sex life? And what's his campaign slogan when it comes to
family values? I like my third wife so much I don't have to
cheat on this one. But here's the deal. You have a situation
where you have a candidate in Donald Trump who is wants to
bring up other people's sex lives as he as if he is some
kind of a saint. This guy is not a saint. The reality is a lot of
people are already frustrated and angry about him trying to
make hay about someone else. Yeah, harder this to stay
married, and yet they're trying to repose the fact that all that
secondly, how hard is it to save marriage in America?
What does that mean? Van? Do you know how hard it is to stay
married in America?
What? What is he doing? He said it twice. I know why? Because
we're gonna
get divorced. Is this something that's eating at him? Hmm. Good.
Is he even married? I asked the book knowledge of knowledge. Is
Van Jones married? Sorry,
I don't know that thing is
useless. It's nice. It's it's Yeah, it is. It's good for
timers. I guess what everybody says, set a timer. So but for
him to say that, either he's trying to say, you know, we're
all such horned dogs in America. It's so hard not to cheat.
That's possible. And I think there's some truth to that. If
you look at the advertising, which are just pumping people
full of sex thoughts. Yep. All the time. Then Then, of course,
you have advertising pumping men full of you're a loser. You got
a big fat belly, you're a loser. You're just a loser. You're a
doofus. And then you're all jacked up, like, Oh, if I drink
this beer, I'm gonna get that chick and drive that car.
Anyway, so I don't know what Dan is saying. But he's more
on this to stay married. And yet they're trying to repose the
fact that all that secondly, how hard is it to save marriage in
America? A lot of people are proud of the Clintons for being
able to stick it out. Donald Trump was able to stick it out.
So if you guys want to do this type of stuff, you know, we've
got to be it's got to be a lost,
man. Let's be fair here. Who's having an affair with a White
House intern? Who's a teenager and then marry three women and
you're not being fair here. He paid $850,000 sexually harass
someone. Okay. 850,000
We're not airing all this deadline, all this dirty laundry
here. We're going there. Five months ago, I
can't believe we're going. Oh, my God, I can't believe we're
going.
But she was in an interesting way defending Trump in a
roundabout way. And I thought I thought hell had frozen over
when I heard Chuck Todd. Again with this Clinton press
secretary who looks like he's had a vasectomy if you saw the
guy.
It makes sense. Yeah.
And he's, he's, you know, so there was his audio tape of
Trump floating rod even clip it because once I saw this and
like, oh, I don't have to unravel this. Chuck. Todd's
doing it. Then which Trump is asked before the the 2000
crisis. He said, hey, you know, the housing. Housing lending
isn't a bubble as a 2006. Yeah, so the housing bubble and you
said, well, crap, if that's happened, and I'll sit around
and wait for it and boom, we'll buy everything on the cheap.
What is happened is specifically Hillary and I'm sorry, I had the
clip where she was she was actually reading her take on it,
which is rooted for the destruction of the economy,
which he couldn't know in 2006 that, that a housing bubble
would destroy the economy would put people on the make them
experience homelessness to use the politically correct word.
You know, he didn't know that.
So he of course, is debunking that. But then I started
interesting to see Chuck Todd doing
heard Donald Trump's response, you guys hit on him with the
real estate. Isn't that
why have you noticed this terms in this video? They don't even
say hit jumps and hit this hit on him. Hit on her hit on him.
It's a hit. We're a violent country.
You've heard Donald Trump's response. You guys hit on him
with the real estate. Isn't that why he's won the nomination?
Isn't that why a lot of voters are attracted to him that he's,
you know what, when things are bad, he's looking for a way to
make money. Isn't that the type of thinking voters think they're
getting with them? Why isn't that a good asset for him?
I don't know how to react to that statement for Donald Trump.
You know, what was exposed today was that at the height of the
subprime mortgage crisis, he was openly rooting for
foreclosures in his in his eye sort of, you know, I sort of
Hope
Chuck Todd can barely say the word defense. He kind says he
wants to say in his defense or in his Oh crap, I can't be one
of those people or closure does
in his in his eye sort of.
is different. Oh, crap. Oh, you don't have that thought goes
through your head when you're talking when you're pronounced
to cating. Yeah, yeah. That's the filters you
catch yourself. Especially if you're on television. Yeah, it
was really have to be on your toes. That
was his filter. It kicked in. You can hear it kicking in, like
little sliders. And
that's that right there. That is the borderline Clip of the Day.
On nice replay play that
bit again, the height of the subprime mortgage crisis, he was
openly rooting for foreclosures in
his in his eye sort of, you know, I sort of hope I don't
mind is that rooting?
Look, if he is making the premier making a leap in his
reaction statement? Well, I think he owned it. And his
response to that is fair point. Or to making America great
again, is greed, bigotry, misogyny. If the idea is that
he's putting all his chips on those qualities, then we will
take the other side of that fat in this election. Yeah, I
bet you will.
Let's talk let's, let's fly through him. I may have some of
this in these clips here. Try this one there. We
have to talk about the Albuquerque thing. Yeah, we'll
get there.
I'm almost alright. I'm glad you brought this other issue at play
this ABC News on Trump versus Warren.
ABC News.
I don't have what is it titled?
Oh, I'm sorry, says a n scene.
Oops. Police Force to fire tear gas. Trump denouncing protesters
waving the Mexican flag as quote thugs and criminals. And inside
the rally
go home to mommy. Is it fun to be in a Trump rally laughing is
this
calling out demonstrators one by one. A woman dragged out by her
limbs head first. Not in the crowd. New Mexico's Republican
governor Susana Martinez Trump attacking her.
She's not doing the job. Hey, I'll run for Governor of New
Mexico. I'll get this place.
What was that all about? Oh, that was the Albuquerque thing I
don't want you were warned was in that clip. Now.
Well, it's not done yet. Is this another minute? Okay. I was just
saying what was I was saying what the hell was Trump's
yelling about become a running for the governor. He's got a
beef with it. But I know that but still. It's just not and he
he's, something's changed. He has bullet points that he's
referring to continuously is holding the paper up for as
focal distance I can tell okay. And this was a line that he had.
Martinez Wait, wait,
stop. I want to mention something because this came up
in a couple of different reports. They said and they
present it in such a way that it sounds bad but it's actually
good. They said they drag the woman off by her limbs head
first. It's if you'd listen to that. Would you want your
dragged off by her feet? bounced it off to
me. Yeah, that again, not doing the job. Hey, maybe I'll run for
Governor of New Mexico. I'll get this place called
Martinez spokesperson firing back. The governor will not be
bullied into supporting a candidate until she is convinced
that candidate will fight for New Mexicans and now Trump on
the receiving end of a series of fierce attacks from Democratic
Senator Elizabeth Warren, painting the billionaire as a
ruthless businessman hoping to benefit from people losing their
homes the recession.
What kind of a man roots For people to get thrown out of
their house, small insecure money grubber who doesn't care
who gets hurt, so long as he makes a profit off
his room today hit back hard is calling Warren Pocahontas
claiming she's part Native American without providing
proof.
Pocahontas that's this Elizabeth Warren. I call it a goofy she is
no goofy. She gets less done than anybody in the United
States and
bully. He's a bully. He's hurting my feelings. He's a
bully. I tell you.
You know the funny thing about the bully. The meme is that he
is a bully i as far as I'm concerned, he's told bully Yeah.
I think that that's actually a positive thing because we have
been beaten back I think this this society where we're pussies
as been beaten back on this bullying. Oh, I'm a boy being
bullied everyone's being bullied and being bullied at work and
being bullied at school. Everyone's a bully and they need
bully counseling bully bully bully. It's gotten I think it's
gotten on everybody's nerves. Because it's too much. And I so
Trump is kind of a bully I think people rooting rooting for him
for being a bully Never underestimate the American
public. You can American public turnout you know it has no
members heads has no memory. Just a memory. It gets irked
easily. It doesn't like to be pushed around but you can always
make a bigger bullies the big bullies the government.
Anyway, so but you
can always make a comeback in America, you can always make a
comeback. I mean, I think America America would even
accept an OJ come back. I'm telling you. That's though.
That's, that is our culture. Jimmy Carter. Nixon. True.
It's really true. Yeah,
we always were.
Confess you got to do all these things, though. There's a bunch
of
pre regatta you got to eat shit for a long time. Shit.
Now. Now his meme of Crooked Hillary is one thing and then
his other one, which is he's trying to transition from
Pocahontas to goofy.
Yeah. Which I think is I like goofy the way he says it.
I like goofy too. And she is goofy.
What is she doing? By the way? What is her plan? She's staying,
she's staying relevant in the race just in case plan B or Plan
A really
Bill falls ill or Hillary falls ill. And that she would slide
exactly right. There's only the only reason for her to be in
play as much as she has. And she's very aggressive.
Yes. Is to
maybe you know, at the convention still off. There's
still this stuff hanging over Hillary's head. There's gotta be
discussions about this in the party. They've got to be saying
what about this XIM this latest? Well, now
we have Debbie Wasserman Schultz looks like she's getting kicked
out as chair of the DNC.
She should be which is about time of No one's even
coming to her defense. I think I think today or tomorrow, she's
out. Oh, nobody's
coming to a defense. Nobody likes her.
She's so easy not to like about about these protests for a
second. Okay, back to that. Okay. So, Jeffrey, Jeffrey toe a
big producer in Albuquerque yet actually, he had a kind of an
interesting note me share that with y'all. It was interesting
but frightening at the same time. And where is he?
Okay, Adam and John.
The afternoon rally was calm returned about the time I got
off work at 7pm. I was forced to go through the area hit by the
paid rioters and the police intersection were closed by
protesters clogging the street and holding printed signs. Where
did they get them and he sent me a link, which I'll get into in a
second. The cars were stopped in the protests. Protesters started
hitting the stopped cars and I was on my old red Honda scooter
which I've seen is not not a not a fierce looking machine. So I
decided to take the curb and go around them. One of the sign
waving protesters jumped in front of me waving his sign
overhead. So I took that as a sign of violence toward me. So I
accelerated and hit him knock him to the side and kicked it
the others they tried to block me. I made the sidewalk and took
it down the street where I jumped a curb and headed home
and I watched the douchebaggery from my home on the news it was
a staged event. And in here's how we know it was a staged
event. There were about 100 paid protesters who were walking
around with very professionally printed signs this is what we
always need to
look out for and the to
professional because there were also a lot of hand drawn signs.
So you can see who the professional protesters are when
they have a sign that says the red nation.org or PSL web.org
you from With PSL web, nope, PSL stands for Party for Socialism
and Liberation. And then we have the red nation, which is another
one of these outfits. And it's not so hard to see who is paying
them with about a million each and donations,
care to guess. Soros.
You write on the first time, this guy is in a hole, and
people need to call him out, stop doing this.
Stop it.
He is He is paying people to go protest and rile people up and
he doesn't take much.
I think there's something illegal about some of this. If
you create violence, what he's doing is paying for violence.
Well, I'm sure there's no contract that says pay, I'm
paying you for violence.
He's paying for violence. He's paying for what
results invite, I'm just I'm just
taking the kind of thing that got the Southern Poverty Law
Center, all cranked up to be what they are today with the
$700 million in the bank, they stayed they proved that these
Nazis in some part of the country of Oregon or Washington
or someplace had by their nature of provoking they had caused the
death of somebody or somebody got hurt. And so they sued in
this roundabout way, and they won. And it sounds to me as
though Soros is susceptible to the same kind of law, action,
legal action, why doesn't somebody do something?
Because it behooves the other douchebags who are on that
echelon of elitism, my guess would be why is he doing this?
So ultimately, to protect his stuff? We've, we're clear on
that. But
what is the strategy?
Well, obviously he wants Hillary to be the president because
there's something in it for him now.
And now he's getting desperate.
Yeah, I think a lot of people are getting desperate. They are
not liking what they're seeing. Hillary is supposed to be the
one. She's going to go in, do some deals with the bank, she's
going to you know, take whatever money she gets, she gets a big
bunch of dough and found a foundation and then she's a
happy camper after you know, the economy collapses. But all rock
and roll from there. It's all figured out in advance. And this
Trump Joker shows up
and somehow ruins ruins our party.
I mean, just had the last time Coast has this ever happened in
the past was when Huey Long was a populist candidate to run for
president. I think he was gonna go after Roosevelt at that time.
And they had they assassinate him.
Yeah, that's, that is the worry with Trump. He's wearing a vest
though you see it clearly? Yeah, he's
definitely wearing a vest. And he pretty good little group
around him. I think. I think he's, you know, within modern
surveillance and the rest of it. I don't know if he can keep
doing these big rallies. But
well, but have you seen the Bernie Sanders rallies? I think
they're equal. If not, I think GE gave me a bigger bigger,
complete media blackout. Yes, it's hilarious. No, is a
complete blank. And Gary Johnson is polling at 10% in a potential
three party
General. Which is interesting. Yeah,
well, that's just polling. But just stop don't cover any of it.
Got a theory that someone sent us an email with a link and was
on some podcast or something where you can hear just the
audio from the libertarian debate. That's how pathetic it
is. It's so pathetic
and the audio in a pod people don't understand that. drummer
Mike in the back of the room one of the things apparently is good
this
time. But you're being jacked in you're buying into it. Anyway.
With that,
I believe I would like to thank you for your courage and say in
the morning to you John C or the C stands for Clinton three by
three Devorah Ack.

Executive Producer officially Grand Prairie Texas. Two Texans
in a row. We like the Texans. Just call me Phil Bennett. Okay,
dear John and Adam, thank you for doing the show. I don't know
where I would be without
it. As a so called millennial. Like, we have millennials.
I find we have lots of them. I find it odd that the show that
the show I relate to the most is hosted by cranky geeks. The
cranky geeks guy and some MTV guy who is older than the guys I
know, as the old guys on MTV.
I don't know what everybody's doing. I'm an old guy
apparently. Despite this,
my friends and I have become enamored by the best podcast in
the universe. And we often discuss the topics of the show
at length of nice. We use the show as a guide to the news as a
guide to the weird SJW PC culture bomb that has assaulted
our peers has become a topic of ridicule and social lexicon. So
there is light at the end of the tunnel. But I think it is far
far off.
It'll take a little a generation to deprogram everybody like the
far far far off in a galaxy far far away.
I'd like in ISIS in America James Brown jam sesh followed by
Lucifer almost too delicious to believe I'd like to pass my
karma to Duvall and Christian in the form of jobs karma they
should be living the dink dream a double Income No Kids dream
but this jobs market is shifts shitting on them hard again.
Thank you for the show. It really does make a difference.
Jenny has a PS
go ahead you can read it. Oh,
hold on. I met the bottom of my screen Hold on Hold on. Let me
get a scroll down.
This is so odd to me. Why
you can't read your spreadsheet. You were gonna get a new monitor
you promised me three weeks ago
Yeah, yeah, that's in the works let me hold on hold so I just
read it No, no no now that you got me ready there we go. Okay,
now you got it stretched and I have to go back up well on. I
know everyone gives me grief about this
year's dumb
it really didn't. I got no PS on here.
PS. While Adam is easily among the greatest producers slash
engineers of all time. We all agree JC D is what really drives
the entertainment aspect of the show. His comedic timing with
sound effects is flawless.
True, true story. Hash tag Okay,
closer to the microphone when you do it I don't know I put a
clip pushed it you are a comedic genius it's annoying ISIS we
will follow them to the gate ISIS it's almost too
delicious to believe my friend jobs,
jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for Joe
okay, sorry that went all sideways. Okay. Christopher
Dolan in Brookline Massachusetts Sir Sir Christopher. Sir
Christopher don't exactly. Please give me a shot at karma.
Keep up the great work and thank you for the best podcast in
university. You are welcome.
You've got karma.
All right. Now we have sir Chad Biederman, he's Baron, and he's
he sent in a check where the note and the note is typed on a
typewriter. Excellent. Which I think is extremely cool
nowadays. I apologize for not donating sooner is no reflection
on the show. I've listened since before Episode 200. And I've
seen it steadily improving to something truly special. When I
started listening, no agenda was simply boffo. Now it stands
apart as the best show in all creation. FIFO is the is one of
those old terms from the 20s it means a hit. It's a hit. It's
buff.
It's like Oh man,
I'm Blotto. It's very it's in that same era. Yeah.
Now it is stands apart as the best show in all creation. I
should read that again. You're dedicated I did your dedication
to the show working on vacation. Oh my what's excellent is sound
quality, the great content, you deserve far better than the
donations you've been getting lately. Oh, thank you. I think
that's true. That's very Louie CK beat to corporate media empty
suits on Jeopardy last night, that pretty much encapsulate how
much shit those guys have on the shelf. Made me better appreciate
the two of you. You are reality correspondents.
Oh, I like this. I like that real reality correspondence.
We are in reality, reminding me how to think critically two days
a week. Little by little I've been supplying insights to my
friends that have led them to stop taking things at face value
to sure they're drinking more now, but they are happier as a
result. Then he says I eat BS for you. Baron Chad Biederman in
Guam, he's in Guam. Nice. And he is not around doesn't
either karma or anything? What is it he's looking for? This
doesn't say but I think
in order I think there's always an order. You've got karma for
people who are new to the program. Now the karma thing was
made up by the producers. And if you're listening, you're if
you're not a producer, you will be eventually everyone turns
into one. Whether it's finance or artwork, or jingles or just
stories or just feedback or information or something, you
know, that's part of what I know agenda network is all about.
Wasn't what was I saying? B 12.
You're just you're given the history of the karma of the
karma. So
so the karma hit, it actually
appears to work.
And but it doesn't if I just send you an mp3 file with the
karma jingle and it is not going to work. Somehow, like the rain
stays like the rain stick. It's the collective consciousness of
all these people. And I don't know thinking
positive thoughts.
I think I think it matter there, man. I need to have that on
instant standby. There are men. Yes, it is exactly how it works.
Yeah. It's like the rain sticks. When everyone hears them.
They're broadcast through the interwebs and it changes the
web. Okay,
now I want to mention a little add on to that little thing
about the karma that it really took off. It actually was kind
of a backwards thing someone sent in the karma jingle. Yes.
And up because we were giving I don't even know how we were
doing it before that jingle came in. That came in that's the
thing that triggers that
I would love to know who Yeah, that that it is Pavlovian when
you hit the con that karma jingle people know about it. I
think it actually awakens karma in you and you and you somehow
distribute that to the people the person who requested it
and that's exactly right, exactly how it works.
Who am I to question karma who
sent in engine we used to know and now we don't I think they're
probably man overboard. What should be the irony of the whole
thing would be okay, All right, I want to remind you, we do have
a show coming up on Sunday. This was kind of a light Thursday. So
if you can help a little more on Sunday go to divert that org
slash and as the easiest way to do it. Also played around with a
little thing called Pay pal.me. Yeah, you've read about
that. What's going on? Yeah,
I don't know if that's really helped me,
how about Venmo. All the millennials are using Venmo,
which is also a that's also a pal private
told about Venmo. And I'm gonna, I'm looking at the Venmo. And
there's some other there's a third one too, but
pretty, because you know what you can do with Venmo? Because I
was reading about this that, although I checked, and it's
not, it was probably more a hit on PayPal than anything. So if
you have, you know, let's say you paid for lunch. And then the
bill was split, and people Venmo you their portion. But you can
also send a message saying, Hey, you owe me and it's like a it's
like a debit invoice. So it's really weird because people are
no
way clicked on bets. Yeah, you can do that. Actually, with Pay
Pal. You can invoice people.
Yes, as John said, another show on Sunday. We need as much help
as we can get please remember us at
vora.org/and. A
Thank you segment for donations coming up in a few but in the
meantime, come out that rocket our formula, our formula is
this. We go out. We had people in the mouth a citizen now, I
was going to save this to a little bit later because it is
technically a second half of show. Oh, yeah. But we ran over.
So we're already way behind. So I want to do it now. But we've
also been talking about millennials and then we had an
ongoing conversation about millennials actually. And I
would like to say, you know people are not getting offended
by us talking about this. You know, millennials some, but
people are like, Oh, stop, you know, you're inconsistent.
We're in kind of your feud.
You're huffing and puffing like a teenager.
That's exactly what
I feel like that we're
very inconsistent. Why? Yeah, because then we were
inconsistent
about what Millennials are most consistent to some ever. There
you go.
Okay, so something has been floating around and I believe
it's it's more late, late stage millennials that are falling
into this 30 to 30 something 30 Somethings the late stage
Millennials sounds like late stage cancer probably is
comparable late stage millennialism. And it is
something called the Mandela Effect. Have you heard of this?
Oh,
for some reason, I think I've heard of it. But I never I just
glossed I didn't I don't know anything. Anything.
Okay. Now the way it's being presented, and it's following up
on the flat earth theories. This is the new one that's so
whipping around the interwebs. And the idea is things you know,
100% For sure. Cultural popular cultural things, which of
course, we all know popular culture. If you ask me Namie 10
US presidents, no one can do it. But you know, we can certainly
talk about Star Kardashian or we can talk about Star Wars or any
of that is Star Wars. So the idea is that you're confronted
with some evidence of something you are absolutely sure. I'll
give you an example. The movie about Carrie Bradshaw when the
end the TV series. Carrie Bradshaw she's a writer in New
York. What is the name of that series?
I don't know. Come on.
I have no idea somebody was saying about sex in the city.
Ah, now there you go. You said Sex
in the City.
But this is not the title. Sex and the City? Yes. But and I
remember to Sex and the City. I've always said it that way.
But now everywhere. There's YouTube videos and kids on the
OMG and this saying that this is the shifting of the matrix and
only if you recognize these changes are you shifting with
Yeah, what what do you what do you huffing and puffing about?
This This is big. So let me give you another one's dumb. Yeah, it
is.
Stop stop stop. I gotta understand this. If you're going
to tell me this crap. Well, I have to do this quiz. Because I
said Sex in the City when it's Sex and the City I could barely
remember that it was even carry whatever I don't care. No, but
you
are also not late term millennial. Listen, don't get
all upset. Just go with the flow and listen to the idiocy believe
me. I'm against this. I'm not trying to say this is this is
true. What it actually it proves something very different to me.
The Power of Culture of popular culture disseminated through
media, particularly television, or any other type of video. Case
in point. Sarah Palin did not say I can see Russia from my
house. That was tea Have faith who said it? But it might as
well be truth right now. No one calls on calls bullcrap. When it
said, as a punch line, it just didn't happen that way. And, and
I think that that instead of oh, I'm shifting the matrix is
cracking and I can't believe it. I know they changed it. Another
one Looney Tunes. How do you spell tunes?
I think is t
o n now it's
T U N E S. Okay. It's always been t you any? Yes. How about?
Fine, so why?
Don't get mad with me, dude.
You're the one that's promoting this. I'm
not promoting. I'm deconstructing it, and you're
being Gable saying,
Okay, well, if you're gonna do this, because I don't mind you
doing I don't care. But if you're gonna do this, and I say,
and you say, how do you spell it? I say t o n s or two or
whatever, whatever misspelling I have. And I and then I say, so
what? You have to at least take the position of defending the
policy or whatever this idea is, and tell me why it's so what?
Instead of getting mad at me for bringing it up.
Because my point is that people are taking this seriously as
some kind of change in the entire structure, the fabric of
whatever we live in, and it's it's rampant on the internet.
Let me give you an example. Or they are well, yeah,
what is the famous line that Darth Vader says to
Luke? I don't remember it.
Well, I always thought it was Luke. I am not your father. Or I
am not your father, Luke. As I said he was his father. So I'm
sorry, I am your father. See, I don't I'm not supposed to play
this game. But that's not what he says at all. If you only knew
the power of a doctor will be one. Never told you what
happened. He told me he told me you know, I am the father says
no, I am your father. Not Luke. I am your father. Or I'm your
father Luke.
All right, which is Oh, again, I know. But okay. Let me just do
one more
sure. That wasn't the family guy that when you played there No.
How about Snow White and the Seven doors? What does the Evil
Queen say to the
mirror? Don't remember, you're not
you're just being I remember. And that sounds like Mirror
mirror on the wall. Who's the fairest of the mirror on the
wall? Who's the fairest of them? It's me see, you know my queen,
magic mirror. Who is the fairest one?
So it's not Mirror Mirror. It's magic mirror.
Okay. And then finally, the song Mr. Rogers sang.
Your daily. I'm in the neighborhood. I'm wearing a
sweater. Mr. Rogers. Mr. Rogers.
No wonder this. None of this works on you because you have no
cultural memory. It's a beautiful day in the
neighborhood. That's the way I've always wanted to be my
neighbor. Yeah, but it's not a beautiful day in the
neighborhood
it's a beautiful day in this neighborhood.
He doesn't even fit right this neighborhood. So he doesn't say
do neighborhood but
this nature that he doesn't say the neighborhood and somebody
went through all of them to yours? No, of
course. Of course not.
Of course not.
So all I want to point out John, this is really what
is the Isn't this what our show does it look at finds all these
flaws like Trump never said such and such. So on so I didn't say
this. She said this and then they dropped this other word.
And they said we're we're doing this on this download twice a
week basis.
This is what is so important. Because however it happened and
I'm sure you can
hold on, hold on, we're doing it to things that might actually
have some importance. Whether or not some fictional character
someplace said this or said that is is at the bottom of the list
of things that we should give a crap up.
I am talking about the mentality of people who also listened to
this show the mentality of people being brainwashed and
instead of understanding they have been not maliciously but
brainwashed into believing something you can apply this to
everything that happens in everything you are being told,
does that make any sense? I'm I'm playing this to show that
people are actually thinking not all that I was wrong thing I was
wrong? No, they're thinking, Oh, this is so crazy things are
changing in the universe. They must have tricked us this month.
It's about the mindset of these people. That's what I'm
interested in.
I'm glad you are now let me ask the big question. What the
hell's this got to do with Mandela? Ah,
because for some reason this started off with people who and
you can just ask a few people there is a belief that Nelson
Mandela died in jail
and people are convinced of it. Okay. Of course he didn't die in
jail. Well, he got out and he
makes more sense that he did I'm sorry I thought it was peculiar
that they let him live I'm sorry you don't
follow my logic of just the bread it's to me it is as a
socio sociologist whatever that is. I find it interesting that
people refuse to believe they they have said have had believed
something incorrectly for years or decades Yeah, we all have but
the besides not just saying I don't I can't believe I'm wrong
and I'm not wrong going so far as to say no no,
the system's fucking me. That's the mentality that is
interesting. Oh, well, I smack my lip well I think I've
seen this I think I've seen the not the this whatever this is
you're talking about the Mandela effect. But I think I've seen
this attitude that the system is this is the
dirty expression this is where your thank you, there you go.
Because they get depressed and they're looking for some excuse
they will look to blame somebody other than themselves. Now I
will say that I can see a lot of people you know, just not being
able to cope with the situation. And people are working for way
too little money. And they're getting screwed left and right
but it's a depression This is what happens during these
depressions that's where you have to toughen up. I don't know
what to tell you. Well, it's probably it's partially because
I never okay but what you've done is you've lectured me on
this in a very I think nasty way but you've lectured me on the
Mandela for now I know what it is. And I realized that and I
realized I agree with you it's dumb.
I didn't mean to lecture you all I'm saying is that you were not
open a
whole package you did a packet of
you Yeah. Which you interrupted with bullshit. Just flow just go
with the flow man. I'm like I let you when you have something
I want to unpack it okay, I back off you just like bad
bad bad. You think it fully
crap? You stop me. Okay, I'm sorry. I interrupt I didn't
realize until about the third clip that you actually sat down
work by this Mandela Effect? Yes. To an extreme Yes. Where
you'd actually get these clips. I don't know where you got a
clip from Mr. Rogers this neighborhood. That's
another reason why I was little irked because I did all this
work. And yes, a lot of work. Let me unfold. You didn't.
You're right. I threw a wet blanket on the whole thing.
All right. Hey, man. First of all, we're good. Okay, sorry.
I'm sorry.
You introduced a different
I said it You weren't listening. You were not listening into a
conversation. You were not listening to me. I said it very
clearly. I'm against this.
Yeah, you know, I understood stood your position. But I was
not under I didn't realize that you had prepared because we
never do this very rarely once in a while we do it but it's not
so outrageous. You went deep.
Because it's been it's rampant. I wouldn't go deep and like get
clearances for these clothes. In the morning, alright.
Let's do something else. Oh, Zika
Sika Sika Sika Sika Sika. Yes, Harry Reid is on the stump for
Zika
we couldn't leave town for more recess unless we get money for
America. The weather's warmer. It's gonna be 90 degrees.
Washington on Friday. Summer's here the president program.
We're not gonna get any money for Zika are very bestest.
sometime this fall. Mosquitoes are leaving town.
We need $1.9 billion to fight Zika which is a total lie
because there's not going to be a lot of it's going to National
Institute of Health 700 million. And that of course is to eat up.
The government will eat that up and pretend to make some kind
of, I don't know some kind of vaccine.
This Zika thing is is could totally is now it's out of
control now that mosquitoes are leaving too. And it's not and
they said we have to do it before recess because otherwise
the mosquitoes leave town.
We need $1.9 billion to fund Zika.
Immediately, dammit. IBM's
we all know if anyone's ever worked in the government, they
don't take them. They don't get a 1.9 million in and poof it all
goes out. They Dibble it out. It can take five years to remove
them. But it's all presented all now. Anyway,
it's all pre assigned people. They've been waiting for it. And
as these douchebag countries, I don't know, why doesn't anyone
just say hey, UK owes us, you know, 300 million or something
like that some crazy amount where Hello, hello, hello,
hello. There. That's what we should be going after. But these
guys they know it's bullshit. And that's why they just pretend
it has to come from Congress. Mother magical person. play.
Let's play it. So we had a doofus on the morning show. Oh,
good with Charlie Rose and Charlie Rose. And Charlie Rose
Nora and a woman the Gail, Gail Gail, Oprah's grofers bed. And
so this doofus comes on. And he's going on and on about what
you can do to protect yourself. And somebody starts off by
talking about dt. But he also played this clip. Here's what he
recommends. This is unbelievable. This guy on this
show, he's some doctors at USC. He's like a professor at USC.
That's the University of spoiled children down in Southern
California. And so he's telling everyone that they should wear a
mosquito hat.
Which is a stupid looking hat with a bunch of down. So here we
go.
Neoga chemical that really blocks mosquitoes from biting
you and take every precaution you can you really say when
you're out in public, you need to wear a mosquito net. Is that
recommendation? I think if your town has it, and you are
thinking of getting pregnant or are pregnant, yes. Where those
mosquitoes you could buy them for a couple of dollars online.
And they were wear long sleeve cotton pants, shirts, cover
things up wear socks. So sure they're coming here. Well,
because we skated these kinds of mosquitoes are here in the
United States. And we now know that these mosquitoes can get
Zika virus very easily from biting somebody and the world is
flat, right? The World Cup happened. And then all of a
sudden, people from Brazil went all over the world and
transmitted so it was that
somebody comes here and it has Zika virus and mosquito bites
them, then that mosquito gets breaded anyway, exactly. One can
lead
to 1000s.
virology 101 What about the Summer Games duel,
so for mosquito bites and get this little bit could be more
could be more mosquitoes. It's
gonna lead to 1000s. What about the Summer Games,
the Olympic Games and the possibility there, you have
people from all around the world going to a place where they
could contact Zika and then returning spreading back out
around the world with Zika contaminations of public
health nightmare. So we all look at this, we have to learn from
it. Zika will be the first of many viruses over the years
because the world is flat. Yesterday.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Did you
hear what he just said? Yeah, the world is flat choice.
Hello. Because he's not doesn't mean the world is flat. Okay,
look
at this, we have to learn from it. Zika will be the first of
many viruses over the years because the world is flat
yesterday to discover the papers of the guy who discovered Zika
in the 1950s 1950s 1918 100 million people died in the world
from influenza. We lost 12 years off life expectancy. So viruses
can have an enormous impact in the world and we need to pay
attention. Dr. David ageist.
Good to see you here. Thank you so much. Gail, do
you want me to get you want me to get you reading my mind
color?
Do you want yellow? What an idiot?
She's according to RT, let me see. It looks like Well, they
say the US could soon adopt
an unconventional method of fighting the Zika virus using a
common bacteria to do so the strategy would involve this is
the Bill Gates Foundation would involve infected mosquitoes with
the bacteria and releasing the males into the wild. This is
what Bill Gates is funding this this work.
And he's he's really into the releasing the mosquitoes of
shitty mosquito
do this. This is just not a very good idea. IBM of course
everyone's getting in on the deal. IBM is just using for PR
find a cure for the Zika virus by turning your phone into a
supercomputer. All you have to do is download an app that lets
researchers run calculations on a device. IBM launching the open
secret project as part of international research efforts
to find a drug to treat the virus. The World Community Grid
app can tap into devices of volunteers for additional
processing power. It's been useful for two research diseases
including malaria, Ebola, and tuberculosis. The bottom line is
a chance to have a hand in finding a secret Cure.
This is dumb. hello, goodbye. Goodbye battery. Goodbye
battery. No, it's SETI, it's a search for extraterrestrial
intelligence, which
we all good by battery, goodbye battery.
we all we all loaded up a couple of those crazy programs, he had
the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. I was like, Oh,
this is so cool because it was the internet early days. And we
all load up this app and you would be processing blocks of
signals that
we all okay, not we all
did. But you know what I also would love back in the day
point cast repoint cast.
Yeah, point cast was the one of the Bucha screensaver, one of
the classic
bandwidth hogs bandwidth hogs. It wasn't classic failure. Yeah,
it was it was like a new screensaver. And we're pulling
feeds you could check click on check boxes were advanced first
era very advanced. The problem was the network wasn't advanced.
Even if you had you know, 50 people in your company with
point cast. And they all all the screensavers kicked in and
around the same time it started sucking down the stories when we
were on board on ISDN. So second insert ISDN look like through a
straw. Good times. Good times. Yeah, so this is bullshit.
Goodbye battery. And shame on you IBM.
Yeah, they shouldn't even be thinking about this. That's
dumb. I thought the other thing was dumb.
Now of course, it turned out to be like a conduit for you know,
malware.
Well, it would it probably is. If I were these guys, if I was
IBM, I'd had everyone's phone processing Bitcoin. Hey, yes,
search for a cure for Zika virus meantime, you're churning out
Bitcoin for IBM. That's what I do. That's very good. That's a
perfect idea. Yeah, that's a great idea. Double Good buy
bitcoin battery. That's it spikes your processors and
possible.
Yeah, well, here's
one I got. Let's talk a little bit. I don't know you have
anything about the refugee crisis? Yeah.
The only Well, I do have one do quick Euro land things.
Let's do a quick Euro. I got a couple of euros stories. Okay.
First of
all, say I don't have the clip. But Greece has now started
clearing out the makeshift migrant border camp. There's
probably a reason why there's no clips is probably really ugly.
Well, they've they've moved them all into hangars and old,
which is where they wanted them to go anyway. And they gave them
the choice. And now they have no choice. They have moved
him into these places. And they had the door chavalla covered
this pretty well. Okay. And they kept the reporters are not
allowed in any of these facilities. So the reporters
have made some turns out that some of these these refugees
have got a clue. And so they're going in because they live in
there. And then they're filming with their with their phone
camera. Yeah. The inside and talking to people that are
coming out like stringers. And talking to the Deutsche Well, a
reporter who's stuck outside the
gate, they're probably making some dough at the same time.
I hope they are they, they should get paid for that kind of
work. Anyway, so here's the thing, I got this clip. This is
a good, I don't know if you can turn the treble up on it. I
don't know why it's so muddy sounding. But this is the no
agenda quiz. And this is a quiz about refugees in Germany. And I
got the question, I'm gonna let you guess the answer. And I'm
going to tell you right now in advance, so you don't feel this
is to embarrass you. You're not going to get this. I wouldn't
get it. Nobody would get this. The answer to this question or
this? Whatever it is, okay. Play no agenda quiz refugees one,
okay,
which was set on fire last summer is just one of about
23,000 crimes being blamed on right wing extremists. The rate
of politically motivated offenses surged to a record high
last year. I'm gonna flip things on top confidence attacks on
refugee centers and refugees themselves have risen fivefold
in the past year. We've never seen anything like it. Crimes
include four cases of attempted murder. The minister also
expressed concern about the rising incidence of break ins
which numbered 167,000 Last year maintenance gangs from one
country in particular were carrying out a large proportion
of them on so
I'm at was under attack for Gil they just because I flew off the
handle earlier doesn't mean you have to disclaim everything like
I'm like I'm a little girl is gonna bitch. When you say I
don't know. Like
all you were paying attention to the question. You're sitting
there stewing.
Okay, what's the question? Okay.
The German character there he says that this there's all the
trouble 160,000 break ins.
Most of these refugees come from one country. Somalia. We
finished asking,
sorry, one country What country is It
Somalia no okay Hold on
What are you doing? Don't look it up
no I'm not no I'm I'm actually I looked up to the sky putting my
finger on my chin and I'm thinking I'm thinking it would
be have to be nuts so that's why I didn't choose Middle Eastern.
I'm thinking more. Oh Morocco Well,
you're not even close of course you won't believe it but so play
this good dancer.
Amazing and since gangs from one country in particular were
carrying out a large proportion of them on so I'm an ad was
under attack for Gail has mentioned Georgia applying for
asylum in Germany to take advantage of Wow. Pin dodgeland
claims are being processed breaking into people's
apartments from Georgia are behind the greatest silent
system. This landscape timbers Killough.
Wow. Yeah. Oh my god.
How is this is I've heard nothing about this.
Of course. Plow. Yeah,
I knew it was a good Georgia. Yeah. Georgia budget. The
criminal element of Georgia. They just see a hole and they
just take advantage of it. They drive right through it. Yeah.
Ah, man,
but this are they actually are they Georgians? Are they coming
through Georgia?
They're Georgians. tiss. To go, oh, we need asylum.
I can I can already see the headline. Tbilisi terror. Terror
in Tbilisi terror from
you have not heard anything. So it was kind of I was stunned
by this. I'll give you this one. Clinical day, that was good. It
wasn't because it was funny, but it was astounding. It was
definitely yes. Why said you would never guess it because I
would never guess it. There's no way anyone would guess this.
Don't play it up. Nobody knows. It's unbelievable. This is
because we just had an election in Austria. Well, there's
a problem
with Austria, at least on an at an EU level. As Juncker the
drunker I think is Yeah, Juncker the drunker has the USBC was the
article here. He has he now he is the president of the European
Union has vowed to block all right wing populists from power
across the continent. And he will do so by evoking the rule
of law and it's a specific. It's article seven, I
think. Yeah, Article Seven.
And this is one of these little things like you have this huge
agreement, the Lisbon Treaty, then has been voted on it's
split up and got protocols and then no and then there's this
thing within the EU, which of course is not in the Lisbon
Treaty, but it is in the framework. The rule of law
framework as established by the European Commission, the
Commission adopted the framework to address systemic threats to
the rule of law, which means not walking in goose step. The
Commission adopted the new framework in its 2014
communication so they knew this was coming this was probably
with the rise of Marine LePen and he had builders.
So they Austrian they dodged a bullet with Austria they did
because they didn't have to deal with this character there that
is very popular but he got he lost to a green Yeah. You know,
kind of the Austrians are interesting because they're, you
know, they were they stem from the Austro Austro Hungarian
empire
and they
met they like to be in culturally I believe they like
to be part of a bigger thing so they I think naturally fall into
the EU idea and this old man to call him that 74 year old
professor of something economics I believe a green was a greenie
running as an independent one beat the right wing younger guys
it looks like a go getter. He wants a Euroskeptic he's
out not seen as a Nazi Nazi I tell you what is it Nazi?
Well, I guess that would be making no no but that's
that's just what they call him in the EU Nazis they're all
Nazis far peddler. Yeah, well,
he's it seems that not to be a Nazi per se just seems like a
conservative but let's play that we can catch up on this because
nobody in the United States knows anything about this
because they know it's not important. So let's play the
Austrian rundown and
you think for all the talk about Holocaust and Hitler and
trumping Hitler, you'd think people would think Austria is
important. Now that story was
ugly side to the world. The former greens leader Alexander
funderbolt. And
he could do donations on the no agenda show that was
assigned to the world. The former greens leader and
Alexander funder Belen was confirmed the winner of one of
the closest ever election securing 50.3% of the vote. It
was the smallest of majorities, but just enough for him to keep
out his far right rival, Norbert Hofer.
A presidential walk across the lawn after an intense campaign
and a knife edge vote his Austria's President Elect, best
movie for great divided hardware
Neiman,
you know, there are not many Austrians who were left unmoved
by this election. The irresponsibility is even greater
with a result like this. A result with a razor thin margin
fund Belen won the vote with just six tenths of 1%. The
election followed a lively campaign against his rival
Norbert Hofer of the far right populist Freedom Party. The 72
year old economics professor funder Belen is the former Green
Party leader. His wind comes largely with support from urban
voters. His candidacy was financed and organized by the
greens, but it was important to fund Belen to stand for election
as an independent porfa. His rival ran on an anti migration
and Euroskeptic platform funded Belen campaign for European
unity and integration. In addition, his goal was simple in
six yards and Mukhlis highly mentioned in six years time,
everyone in Austria should be able to say I'm fine, or even
better than six years ago.
Wow, why don't you just say, hey, let's the Anschluss. That
sounds good.
So this is an interesting development, but it's not a
surprise. Well, there's
other light gun.
I just think it was this other guy's is going to be a player
for a while and there's no waves six years from now they're gonna
say that they're better off. No, I couldn't be wrong.
If there's an EU, then there's a lot of rumblings in with the
bureaucrats. Because the Germans seem to be doing an internal
takeover. Martin Schultz is proposing a whole bunch of
Germans to fill high level spots. So these people are not
elected. None of these people are elected. You know, your Euro
parliamentarians are elected, but they have no power. The only
people who can make laws are the you know, the EU Commission and
they do things to commission and they do it in secret to secret
and they know now Let's vote. So he's trying to bring in Marcus
Winkler to become deputies, Deputy Secretary General, and
Monica Strasser, the next budgetary affairs director, and
also wants to Can't
they wait until the Brexit vote is done before they start
pulling this crap?
Well, this it takes a long time in the end to get anything done.
So I think they do have to start it up. Meanwhile, I know you
have a clip, but I'll play mine. Cuz I thought it was filled with
interesting tidbits to our French producers. To the people
of France. I say shuffle ba you truly have spirit. Everyone's
about to run out of gasoline. Yes, this is great. And we have
the FIFA UEFA competition coming up in two weeks. And you know,
there's,
well here's the report with pumps that more than 4000 petrol
stations in France now partially or fully dry. The showdown
between the government and the hardline CGT union over
contested labor reforms has intensified nationwide blockades
and a strike at the country's nuclear power plants. He's
putting more pressure on the socialist Prime Minister who
insists the law won't be withdrawn. The text will now go
to the Senate where there's a right wing majority which will
put forward its propositions and these will obviously be pulled
apart not only from what we put forward but also from what those
demonstrating are expecting. So changing causes out of the
question. There can always be modifications and improvements
you assume. After oil refinery shutdowns strikes at nuclear
sites have taken the standoff one stage further. power cuts
are not expected. The tension is growing here demonstrators are
blocking access to a strategic bridge in Normandy and this with
France.
The whole bridge is blocked off. I mean, hey Soros take get some
French people if you want to really disrupt that. And also
other French people, they won't cross that line. That bridge is
empty, and it may be 40 people in a line standing in front of
it. No one's trying to break through. No one's trying to
crash over them like Americans do.
Always to host the Euro 2016 football tournament in two weeks
time job of this union official says the government's decision
to force the measures through the lower house of parliament
without a vote killed any possible compromise. We didn't
refuse to talk he says they fought busted through. And we're
very sorry about that. There's a lack of democracy and discussion
with workers already watered down and now causing divisions
within government ranks. The reforms seek to make hiring and
firing easier to tackle unemployment.
That's what this is all about. It's all about the employment
regulations.
They have a lot of these
rules em in Germany, too,
in the Netherlands, oh, my God in the Netherlands? Do you know
that they have a magical 13th month you are required as an
employer to pay your employees for not working? Every year?
Yes, every year, December, you get two months salary, and it's
called the 13th month. Oh, you have as an employer, you pay
everyone an extra bonus for not doing anything.
We had a publication in Germany that we were starting up and
they the rules in Germany, I don't know what the ones in
France are. But I'm sure they're worse. Yeah, you couldn't fire
anybody except one or two days out of the year, there was a
special day. And I think the French,
a special kind of like Obamacare, when you can sign up
for insurance a special day, you can be fired.
Yeah. We shouldn't have that still true, like,
years ago, but we should implement that as a national day
is good.
It was a lot of these kinds of rules. And I think the French
have a slew of them. Who are you? You know, you can't fire.
It's crazy in the Netherlands, because I remember all this.
This is when I went home. And this happened in the span of
maybe 12 years when I was out of the out of Europe. And I came
back and you know, I had a little company gone. And then I
was informed that I cannot pay myself zero. If I work at the
company, I have to pay myself equal amount or more as the
highest paid employee. And even if I don't pay myself, that I
still have to pay
wage taxes on it.
So if you didn't pay yourself, you still have to pay taxes on
the amount you should have paid yourselves even though you
didn't get any money. Yes. That's great. I know that sounds
that this is the kind of labor laws are all over. Yeah. And
you have to get permission or you had to it's maybe it's
changed. You had to get permission to fire somebody had
to go to the RBI to do all that it had to go to the judge. And
then the judge would wait for a month or so and then would say,
Well, okay, I think maybe you should give this person a year
and a half severance.
I kid you not? Yeah. By
the way, the French don't put up with any changes to these rules.
Well,
you know, Bernie Sanders has his way we'll have it all here.
Well,
yeah, that's true. That those are the kind of rules that we
implement,
although the UBI the universal basic income. Now that I think
really we need to keep our eye on that, I guess, June 5,
Switzerland has a referendum about UBI. Yeah, well, that'd be
the experimenter. Yeah, well, they
could actually might work fine is yes.
Gonna say they can pull it off. No problem. Exactly.
Exactly. All right.
Any other EURO NEWS? Yes, I
have Nigel Farage, regarding the Brexit as of course, the
propaganda is incredible. If you and I've received emails from
producers who were also in on the states on the state camp,
saying, hey, you know, there's i My business is in trouble. Or it
could be in trouble if we don't have agreements with the rest of
the EU, which I have because of the European Union right now,
then I'll have to do it's going to be a big hassle. It could
ruin my business. And of course, I'm sympathetic to that. I
personally believe you'll do better outside, but no one
really knows. No, one better outside before you seem to be
okay.
seem to be okay. Anyway, here's Nigel in the European
Parliament, spouting off
the failures in my long years here the introduction of a
currency that's impoverished. At the Mediterranean. I've seen the
idealized Schengen Area lead to the free movement of
Kalashnikovs. And every single week or month, we see the
attempt to create a single state of Europe, which of course the
European peoples don't want. But the EU's common asylum policy is
the lowest ebb for policy yet, Chancellor Merkel took the cork
out of a champagne bottle and said anyone could come and now
you're trying to put the cork back in and realizing it's not
possible. So you've turned to somebody else to sort out your
own problem,
guys great as he's, he's a master of prose, right? So
that the notion of the champagne bottle cork because we've all
opened champagne bottles, it's much
better than you can't get put the cork back in the bottle.
When you say champagne cork, it really worked
out and the thing flares out 90% of the time. This is very old
champagne. Yeah, and then yeah, it's a joke.
Problem. So let's talk turkey.
Taken Nice, nice, okay.
They have taken your weakness. And they've now decided they're
going to blackmail you. Not only for they want 3 billion euros
from you this year, they're going to want 3 billion euros
from you every single year. And in return, they've given
absolutely no guarantees whatsoever that they will stop
people from coming or indeed take people back. And they've
managed to persuade you, whatever the commissioner says,
into offering them by October next year, visa free access for
75 million people whose average GDP income is half that of the
poorest EU member state. I guess what you're doing is you're
saying the way we'll stop illegal immigration is to make
it all legal immigration. Exactly. And if that doesn't
take the biscuit, now, you're gonna fast track Turkey to be an
EU member. So let's just think about that. A country 97% of his
landmass is in Asia. Apparently, you want to join Europe. It is a
country that appears to be keener on bombing the Kurds than
it is I'm taking on ISIS. It is a country that has turned a
complete blind eye to ISIS fighters traveling through its
territory. It is a country, according to the Pew Institute,
whose poll last week showed that 8% of those 75 million actively
encourage and support the aims of ISIS. It is a country
directly and closely linked with buying ISIS oil, and we will
finish up bordering Syria, Iraq and Iran. It is mad, it is the
most dangerous decision the European Union has yet taken.
I'm sure the British Prime Minister will be delighted. He's
campaigned for this since 2005. To me, without any of the other
debates. If there was one single reason why Britain should in
this referendum vote to leave the European Union. It is the
folly of political integration with Turkey. It is already
stupid. It is damn dangerous.
There you go. Yeah, I don't know if it's gonna help. But now
you're not. We've already figured that out.
I you know,
that's I still I know you're on the fence. I'm dead. You know, I
have hope. I have hope. I have hope. I have hope for my friends
and get my nation east. Modeling. I don't have a lot of
hope here. Mainly because of the following bill. That has is
still EUROPEAN NEWS.
No, I'm sorry. Do you have more EURO NEWS?
Yes, they do. Oh, I'm so sorry. You did not start to drift.
I was transitioning.
I think that this is an interesting story. And let me
say I think I may have to European Well there's a couple I
have to European isn't if you're talking about Germany, let's
talk about this interesting thing that they're requiring
that we don't even do if Mexicans in the country. Yeah.
And come Americans they can you know, there's ways of doing
that. But I think the Germans are actually kind of interesting
because they're so rigid about this plate as Germans must be
German.
Germany's coalition government has approved a milestone and
integration law tonight, it is designed to get refugees working
and to make them part of German society. But the Chancellor
Angela Merkel and her cabinet, they've laid out some strict
conditions for newcomers. They'll receive long term
residence visas only if they prove that they can support
themselves and have a good knowledge of German. It also
enables states to decide where refugees can live for up to
three years. And it cuts benefits to refugees who refuse
to learn German or attend integration courses. Critics say
the law further reduces the rights of refugees here in
Germany. The legislation now goes to Parliament for approval
to what a tragedy. They tried this in the Netherlands and
there was a lot of Oh, you have to speak Dutch and what it
results in is everything in two languages, every sign every
everything is in two languages. That's what it results in. For
those who have shown that I'm just telling you what the
reality is because they have to learn so it's very simple. The
only show you gotta eat Yes. So you read your language and you
know this to German, okay, I don't give a crap.
The last clip I have that's that's not good. The last clip I
have, which is that I think is this is the kind of To me this
is a symbolic clip because this is telling us the kind of bull
crap that we have to put up with and you know, in the end kind of
corporations have to
put up with I'm glad you have I'm glad you have a clip of
this. It was all my story list. Good one.
Yes, it is.
It's France. It's France. It's France. Who does this shit?
Well, this I think was a this was one of the EU bureaucrats.
I'm sure France had something to do with it. But this is the kind
of crap that we're gonna have to live with. And this is not a
good thing to me.
Netflix is being forced to become what Daniel more
morally continental Europeans are sectional. Well, you might
think it natural for an American streaming service to show mostly
American content. But the EU says that firms like Netflix and
Amazon could be crowding out European shows. That's why they
want to impose a 20% quota forcing streaming services to
offer more European programming. Isn't this
what T tip was all about was all about Hollywood.
online streaming services offer a wide range of program
categories, TV series, documentaries and thrillers.
Now, the European Commission wants to force Netflix, Amazon
and the like to make sure that at least 20% of their content is
produced in Europe. The commission wants to
counterbalance the huge glut of us productions. The allowance
has been overpaid. If we think European film culture mean
European content shouldn't be proportionally available on the
channels European citizens can watch him couldn't feel included
as a form of indirect support for European films that
happened. 20 indirect default and we think that 20% is a very
reasonable number. And I didn't send you puts into say a
mouthful, so users tastes will no longer be the only deciding
factor. A quarter will help things along. But the plans
still have to get past the EU Parliament and Member States. On
top of that, some as yet to be named EU countries could also be
forced to give financial support to the European film industry.
skeptical about Brussels plans, but doesn't expect them to cause
problems. With Marseille it already has a large French
production and its catalog and a German series will follow in
2017. Amazon is planning to do the same.
That's great. I just see Netflix jammed with Tatort and Louie de
funa. That's what I would do just buy an old shitty catalog
cheap.
Yeah, well, a lot of the stuff on there is old crap. Yeah,
that's what most of them that finals. Yeah, exactly. Buy an
old catalog. And there's gets you 20% of the way 20% today.
30%. Tomorrow, you know, as works.
And for those of you who got the Louie Louie differnet reference.
Way to go. Benny Hill. There's another one but that's Benny
Hill, Benny Hill. There's European Conte, Python, Monty
Python, you can get that cheap. Yeah, that's very cheap
European content. Yeah, I'm sure there's some you know, Jerry
Lewis stuff that would qualify. All right. I can go with the
European stuff today.
What was the the propaganda outfit called in Nazi Germany?
That Goebbels was a Goebbels? Yeah. Goebbels right. What was
that called? It didn't have a name. Why did you look that up?
Well, I when I run through this recache if I can find anything.
There's a house bill right now, House Resolution Ministry of
Propaganda. But it was something like that and House Bill 5181.
To counter foreign Disinformation and Propaganda,
and for other purposes. Here we go. The short title could be
called the countering foreign propaganda and disinformation
act of 2016. It is in the sense of Congress that foreign
governments, including the governments of Russian
Federation, and the People's Republic of China use
disinformation and other propaganda tools to undermine
national security and objectives of the United States and key
allies and partners. The Russian Federation in particular, has
conducted sophisticated and large scale disinformation
campaigns that have sought to have a destabilizing effect on
the United States allies and interests, who the challenge of
countering disinformation extends beyond effective
strategic communications and public diplomacy, requiring a
whole of government approach. This is an Obama term, a a whole
of government approach, leveraging all elements of
national power, the United States Government should develop
a comprehensive strategy to counter foreign Disinformation
and Propaganda and assert leadership in developing a fact
based strategic narrative. And an important element of this
strategy should be to protect and promote a free healthy and
independent press in countries vulnerable for foreign
disinformation. So
what do you think they want to do? It was the Ministry of
Public enlightenment and propaganda,
oh my god, write that down. The Ministry of Public enlightenment
and propaganda. Today that's called the Center for
Information Analysis and response. The same thing, an
Atlanta in 80 days the Secretary of State shall in coordination
with the Secretary of Defense, and he see the Director of
National Intelligence. The Broadcasting Board of Governors
and other relevant departments and agencies established a
Center for Information Analysis and response, also known as the
Ministry of Truth. The center shall lead and quote that
through that in late leading coordinate collection and
analysis of information on foreign governments information
warfare efforts, including information provided by
recipients of information, access fun grants awarded, and
other sources and to establish a framework for the integration of
critical data and analysis on foreign propaganda and
disinformation efforts. Okay, so the putting together the center
and the Center consists of Intel agenda and military. Because,
you know, obviously we need those guys that tell us what the
truth is Developing and disseminating fact base
narratives and analysis to counter propaganda and
disinformation directed at United States allies and
partners. This what they have to do identify current and emerging
trends in foreign propaganda, and the use of print broadcast
online social media support for third party outlets such as
think tanks, political parties, and nongovernmental
organizations and the use of covert or clandestine special
operators and agents to influence targeted populations
and governments in order to coordinate and shape the
development of tactics, techniques and procedures to
expose and refute foreign disinformation and proactively
promote fact based narratives and policies to audiences
outside the United States. So that's how they're going to be
funding NGOs, think tanks, well, we already do but only it will
now come coordinated. So instead of it being just the State
Department or USA ID, although probably USA ID will still be
the funnel for the money. It will go to the saying it right
here. They're saying we will fight propaganda in your
country, what we consider to be your propaganda, we will fight
it in your country, with NGOs and think tanks. No wonder Putin
kicked him out. Yeah, smart move. And then I have down here,
okay, to have the authorization of appropriations, always
interesting. The money there is authorized to be appropriated,
by the way the broadcast Board of Governors, they're running
this show that this center reports to them. We've talked
about them before. Yeah, these are the guys who run Voice of
America, all the all of these websites and news organizations,
all of this phony baloney, and I think they're probably in bed
with Soros to some degree. So the all the dinner there's
authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary of State for
fiscal years, 2017 2018 $20 million. And here's what it's
for to support the center and to provide grants or contracts of
financial support to civil society groups and journalists,
nongovernmental organizations, federally funded research and
development centers, private companies, and academic
institutions for the following purposes, to support local
independent media who are best placed to refute foreign
disinformation and manipulation in their own
communities.
I think I'm missing the boat by not bringing in podcasters. But
okay, if you just want to keep it a nongovernmental
organizations, fine,
they shouldn't bring in podcasters. This
is the Ministry of Truth. Public and
licenses. This is targeting other good this is like illegal.
This is like subversive activity in
our country. It's not well, it's not illegal.
It's not illegal in our country. No, I guarantee it's illegal in
China.
I mean,
they're telling you right here, but you can't trust journalists
don't just put a target on the head of a journalist if you know
that. The police some piece of 20 million is going to
journalist to combat your disinformation.
I guess they've given up on trying to protect the group.
Unbelievable. Yeah, that's, that is just not good. Yeah. I like
the
Ministry of Public enlightenment. I think it's
better than Ministry of Truth. Yeah. Anyway, we're we're open
minded here at the no agenda show.

soon as possible.
Wow,
I get this note, by the way from from Newman, I have to read it.
He says it just says some note but his birthday party or
birthday, which we mentioned. Also, I met John at the birthday
party at sparks about a month or so ago. And I unfortunately gave
him a typical gushing fan introduction. Quote, oh, I've
been reading your column this entire century you're a real
inspiration to me, et cetera, to which a probably drunk JCD
replied with a very wrote. I'm sure you have a total dick and I
can hear you saying that too. Yeah, that's one of the two
things I say when people come up with stuff like that. But the
other one is all Oh, you and my mom. Oh, and my favorite one
does you get guys come and say you know, I've been reading you
and PC World for 10 years.
You know that's that's all 10 years now. Well, that
10 years 20 does make a difference. I never wrote for PC
Mac.
That just goes to show the value of your name. Yeah, zyk did not
help anybody anything. Ah, executive decision. Let's move
tech news to Sunday.
I'm all in on so I didn't think we should do tech news except on
Sunday.
Okay, because I have a good list of fun stuff that won't get
discussed anywhere anyway. Okay, though. The comic, the comic
book thing just wanted to mention the social justice
warrior. Black Lives Matter. LGBTQ IA P is all over the place
now. I heard from some of my comic book friends. The DC I'm
sorry, from some of my comic book friends.
I have them I don't have it in America. Who? What do you mean
by comic book people
who read comic books? Oh, okay. I guess DC has the new 54 Yeah,
I don't know exactly what it is. But in the this bad girl is a
lesbian. And we're in and we find out that her lesbian lover
is actually a transgender. Okay, I would like someone to find
this comic book for me. Oh,
they would be at a comic bookstore. So now you tell me I
know I have a comic bookstore right near the post office.
Maybe
it's not it's new. 52 DC new 52 Sorry, not 54.
It's called DC, New 52. New 52. This guy has all the stuff I
got. I had to. I got the Obama one from him. Oh, I'll go. I
have collected a number of these comic books because God knows I
need more shit in the house.
I mean, are the comic book shows talking about this? I mean, do
you listen to these podcasts? Do you listen to Andy and not co
comic book talk?
I only do occasionally. So you haven't heard anything? No, but
I'm sure there are a buzz.
TSA under attack, of course, there was a firing of what was
the guy's name Hoff or something you got kicked out for these
lines being too long and it all being messed up. And there was a
hearing and of course, I was watching significant amounts of
C span. This is the administrator we played him on a
previous program, Peter Neff injure This is now coming
through Schiphol Airport recently. I can attest to the
sophistication of their carry on luggage check and body check
system. And then what you'll hear and described in this clip
is exactly what they have. And it works quite well as well. The
screeners they're much friendlier in my opinion. But of
course, ultimately, no one really did anything wrong. We
just got rid of that one guy, we really know why I think we need
more money.
I appreciate the promise of new technology to expedite
screening. But can you preview some of what we can expect?
Well,
thanks for that. I do think we need to do a better job of of
both research, development and incentivizing the private sector
to come forward with ideas.
Oh, man, hey, hello, hello, money over here. Private sector
you're incentivized come on over here with some ideas. But
here's an example I think of what of what we can see. If you
if you look at the Atlanta airport today, we just reopened
two new automated screening lanes down there. This is this
is not something new. It's been it's been in use in Europe for a
number of years. But these are these are instead of do you
think about a standard lane, you walk up to a lane and there's a
table there. You put your stuff up on the table and you slide it
along the table until you can engage the conveyor belt. This
is a fully automated system, the bin returns automatically. It's
it's got an RFID tag and a barcode that ties it directly to
you. It takes there's a photograph taken of your stuff
as well as an x ray. And it takes off automatically. There
are five stations at which people can line up so you don't
have to go single file. You can take five people at a time up to
the checkpoint. They cycle in as they as they fill their bins up
and he goes through
what he fails to mention that when you put your stuff in the
bin and you then it actually drops onto a conveyor belt and
moves away and the minute that happens, another bin poops up
out
of the hole. Do we have a whole guide to do that? It's always
the guy who's the grumpiest. Yeah, you would be to have that
job
carry these shitty ass bins everywhere. So So you
look at increasing passenger volumes. At some point, you
reach capacity with a manual system. And then you have to
look to automate things. I think that the TSA more money to more
money we'll see with the system to get it more automated and
more and more technology. And we're also working with software
companies to determine how effective machines can become at
identifying.
I am just thinking about the system as he's talking. I don't
see how you can go any further if this conveyor belt is the
bottleneck. You can't rush these bags through fashion and the
conveyor belt will suck them up. And then they stop at everyone.
Ah, no, I'm sorry. But no, no, there's there's actually there's
two conveyor belts. And if so, you go to the extra your bag
goes to the X ray and it's like a like a rail system. And if
something's been tagged, it flows over to one of four
stations on the other side. It's kind of like a like a big oval.
And you have your five put your bags in the bin station. And
then ones that have an issue are sorted off to the end that pop
up and they literally pop up and and the photo that was that came
out of the it's it's actually the X ray picture to the person
who's not looking at it because they okay, that must be this
thing. I want this item so they're not getting everything
out. It works. It's sophisticated. That means
faster, so much
faster. Okay, all right, nevermind
for companies to determine how effective machines can become an
identifying prohibited items, so that you can put humans into the
work that they that humans do best, which is getting out of my
way at the same time, you know, moving machines out to what they
do best. And we're also looking at changing the way we do
identity matching. When I look around an airport, and I see all
those kiosks that the Distribute boarding passes, there's
typically some type of an ID reader and all of those if you
can get ID reading technology into there, there's things
things we can do that can that can, you know, automate the
identity check process. Yeah.
So they just wanted the whole, the whole thing now just turns
out to be one big it scam, automate everything, that's how
we're going to get rid of the people. Now, you know what,
maybe just the microchip approved,
invalid. And now they're gonna do it to the airline
check in terminals, where's the security and that because TSA is
Inspector General report showed that they did not even have the
basic cybersecurity not even the basic firewalls in place. You
can get right, technically, you can get right into the X ray
machine, this body scanners,
atrocious.
And yet we all just stand like sheep since
911. No, I love it. I love it.
I love it. And this, this was interesting about the difference
between TSA and private companies, it's important
to understand that even a private screening contractor
works for TSA. It's contracted to the federal government
contracted to TSA in this a TSA management staff that runs I
think that's important, because from my perspective, the
national security is a federal function. And you need you need
national standards when it comes to to that, in my mind, the so
when you look at performance, you know, it's roughly the same
from from private, we train them in to the same standards. In
fact, they trained at our TSA Academy, from my perspective,
sila, TSA Academy, was it remind you of hamburger Academy? Maybe
it reminds you to the police academy,
same standards. In fact, they trained at our TSA Academy. From
my perspective, the flexibility I get with a Federal workforce
is for this national Deployment Force I mentioned these are TSOs
who have volunteered to be deployable in for surge events
and for others surge.
cert. Yeah, I know it to military terms in their
deployable for surge events, you know, like the surge in Iraq.
As I mentioned, these are TSOs who have volunteered to be
deployable in for surge events and for others, but we have
about 250 of those, I can do that with the federal workforce,
I can't reach into a private workforce without without
working a contract issue. And and so if I need to surge, it
gives me the ability to do that. And I can also move personnel
more rapidly from place to place as I need to so from my
perspective, that's that's a benefit as a manager of having a
workforce that works directly for me versus contracted to me,
does this guy come from the Navy?
I think he does. I you say that? Well, because
he's using all these military terms. By the
way why Navy though, it could be from the army,
because I thought I remembered him being from the like, could
be sounds like officious Coast Guard, Coast Guard, vice admiral
in the United States Coast Guard. Of course, that's why
he's talking about deploy and surge wants to be a Coast Guard
wants to be a big shot. Yeah, this is his own little force,
his own little army that's going to protect the citizens of
America by terrorizing everybody and yelling at them in the line.
Yeah, exactly. yelling at them in the line.
I tell you, if you put a drill sergeant in charge of this whole
thing, that'd be better.
I have
like a little social justice warrior. Black Lives Matter clip
bliss, but it clipless is your thing. So I'll just play for
you. Without
go would do now. Yeah, no, because I call the clip and then
you played so it won't work
that way. But here's an interesting nugget I found out
in the United States we've had the big issue with the names of
teams, and particularly the Washington Redskins as it being
an outrage and, and racist. And just horrible douchebags turns
out to
Native Americans think a little differently. Well, there's been
a lot of public controversy lately over the name of the
football team here in Washington the Redskins. Now a new poll by
the Washington Post found that nine in 10 Native Americans say
they aren't offended by the Redskins, aren't offended. The
post survey Native Americans in all 50 states over a five month
period ending last month the Redskins are in a legal battle
right now with the federal trademark office over whether
name is offensive. Even President Obama said the team
should think about changing it. But team owner Dan Snyder
celebrate the results of the post Paul and continues to say
the Redskins name will never change. 90%
said we're not offended. This is what I don't understand what
happened to all those Native Americans we saw on TV and there
was
a pressure group that that started with this just to harass
this idiot owner. By the way, that guy's a horrible guy.
Courtney into the football insiders can feel the champion.
I think if they were winning, I don't think it'd be much of an
issue anyway, they came up just to get some ink. And they did.
And they, they said all the Indians feel this way. And the
Indians went, No, no, we don't they weren't asked to beginning
during the beginning of this controversy, they never would
have asked anyone. But so these people just took it upon
themselves to like, represent.
And well, good on you.
Good, good on you the rest of the Native Americans. Screw
those guys. And nice. I don't care you call it anything you
want?
Well, it was also approached from the perspective of modern
approach, which is if one person's offended, yes, yes. If
one person is offended, that's enough. That's it. We shouldn't
offend anyone. Well, there's a lot of this going on. And if
there's 10% of the density, I would say the other way would do
that. 10% of the Native Americans think this is a very
offensive team name it did John believable that many would be
offended, but they are that minutes. 1000s and 1000s. That's
changed the name? Yes, you could do it. You can
do it that way. But the more truth
in it that way.
twerps Susan Rice did the commencement speech at Florida
International University. This is a bonanza, did they get paid?
Some people get paid?
No, no. The main payment you get for it is a free to play free
diploma. It's a free diploma
and a cool gown and funky hat and you get to be on TV with
your speech. Well, I don't know. I dislike the president at least
the the parts of the commencement speech I saw I
think I saw the whole thing. I didn't like him politicizing it.
And you want to instill hope and fire and be inspirational,
inspirational. Yes, light a fire these kids, Republicans or like
this.
I'm privileged to work with brilliant and dedicated
professionals across our government. So we must
acknowledge that our national security agencies have not yet
drawn on the strength of our great nation. Minority don't
make up less than 20%. of our senior diplomat. less than 15%
of senior military officers and senior intelligence official who
often our national security workforce former Florida Senator
Bob
I'm sorry, I don't see the inspirational message.
Would you just slam into the audience for being
white male and Yale?
With this wasn't a Yale was No, no, no, no. No, what the hell?
She talked about Yale for the audience and think What should I
buy Yale for?
The whole thing is where she is now. You're right. It's just she
wants to get a speech on TV. She's black. I think. I know. I
know. She's black. And she wants to be relevant. I guess he wants
to get into conversation. It's not appropriate for commencement
speech.
Inspire, Inspire. Light the fire.
My new favorite gay is Milo
Yiannopoulos.
We've seen this guy now with the with the blonde hair. He's the
Brit conservative.
Loves Trump. Once have Trump's babies. He's quite good.
I don't know who you're talking about. Okay, I'm sure if I saw
him I would look at a picture. Yeah,
just just Milo is enough. He's the guy that got unverified on
Twitter because he's too controversial. What? You don't
remember Andrea
Andrea? unverified. unverified. What? Milo is also a sorghum
drink I forgot about and I forgot that Milo the drink from
Nestle is
sorghum. Oh, yeah,
I forgot about that. Okay, well, anyways, most his last name is
not coming up just a bunch of sorghum.
M I L. Oh, yeah. Do my L here. Here's here's the search term. M
I L O space g a why? To stop using being stopped using Bing.
I am am i You're right. I am on Bing. Ford came up with a bunch
of gay porn. A bunch of a bunch of here isn't my though. Yeah,
no,
no, no. Stop going to your history. You need to go to
Google. Yeah.
And then a bunch of pictures that are all blacked out. Okay,
well, anyway, he's fabulous. It's Yiannopoulos YANNOPOU l o
s. When I use Google and I just do my low I get him so I don't
know what being is stupid.
It is stupid. I'm sorry. Anyway, go on. Alright.
Well, so he does these speeches, and he's very controversial and,
you know, kids are freaking out when they When he speaks at
universities, and he was at, actually Tina, the keeper's alma
mater, DePaul University, I'd say a fine upstanding
institution. And I sent her this and said she should be very
proud. So the Milo is doing his thing. And then Black Lives
Matter come in very effective. And on the video, you see that
they weren't in the auditorium. They came marching in with
whistles, which we've suggested in the past is a fantastic
disrupter.
You said this guy's blond. Yeah. The picture I have of him in his
Milo Yana la palapa. culus
at LeWeb. He's black haired,
while he's gay, that changes all the time. Okay. It's what we do
in the gay community. We change our Harold, it's our hair color,
we know.
Anyway, so I want you to just hear a little bit of this
disruption. I want you to listen to the guy when I cut out a
whole bunch of this stuff. Listen to the whistle. And then
of course what they're really because I presume they're paid
protesters. It's all anti Trump. Trump's on on stage and I'm
talking about Trump and and then one girl just goes crazy and
starts screaming well have a listen reason you
can't see them is because they're not there. There's
nothing happened Hello, John. Sir, please, sir. Sir.
Sir, please
sir, please
sir
the girl comes up on stage Yeah, dump Trump, dump Trump dump on
Trump people are in college, John University is called DePaul
University and
she's she's hysterical, hysterical about I don't know.
She's foolishness. Every time you're in this foolishness is
followed by the bundle somebody else's hands.
I mean, seriously,
what is wrong with these people? Other than getting paid to do
it?
Well, some are getting paid, but some are just hysterical. It's
weird.
The let's see what university is this? Did
you see the picture? That woman on the airplane that was went
prone and she started really having a fit at the pilots door
and she's pounded her feet and she's screaming No,
no, no, no. I want to see like an adult temper tantrum. Yeah,
that's a psychological problem. She she has a problem, I think
yeah, but I mean it but it's it's media. It's pressure. It's
the whole indoctrination. It's
like I agree. And I think a lot of it has to do drugs, too. They
don't. Yeah, oh, no, no.
This is not this whole culture is not just an American thing.
The professor University of Warwick in England says parents
who read to their kids should be thinking about when doing so
they are unfairly disadvantaged seeing other people's children.
It's called it's called BEDTIME STORY privilege. I don't think
parents reading their
children got to be this is joke as you read it from the onion I
did not national read time story privilege. This is insane.
I don't think parents reading their children bedtime story
should constantly have in their minds the way that they are
unfairly disadvantaging other people's children. And this is a
different
professor. But he also said
other things parents do give their kids the best education
possible like sent to elite private school cannot be
justified in this way private school. No. At one point, he
even flirted with the idea of simply abolishing the family way
of solving the social justice problem. He sounds a little out
there, but he's from the University of Warwick. But since
bedtime stories, stories activities do indeed Foster and
produce desired family relationship goods.
You have to be careful because kids who don't receive that are
therefore less privileged.
So instead of everybody reading bedtime stories to their kids,
people doing it should curb that
enthusiasm. didn't surprise me.
Why is this not some really surprising
In the in the scheme of eyes, a
lot of this got started, by the way, when you talk about this,
you know, as a worldwide phenomenon, I think much of the
social justice stuff and much of the crap that's going on started
in England. Oh, yeah, there was a lot of this kind of making
sure that certain people couldn't speak and Russian them
out at the major universities and in England, I think I think
the whole thing may have started in England,
there's really only one way there's only one place you can
truly exercise free speech in England.
speakers corner. Yeah,
that's the only place that's technically it's all of this
scenario. A lot of this started at University of Missouri in the
zoo. And now, oops, enrollment dropped off by 1500 students.
That's a lot wants to go there. Exactly. Good call, guys.
Yeah, because parents don't want to send their kids to a place as
being disrupted all the time.
Okay, nothing we can do about it.
All right, final two bits. This is a Jamal Smith. He apparently
works at MTV News, my alma mater, and just loved how he,
you know, how he talked about these protesters that were anti
Trump. Now, of course, these were actually violent, actual
violence occurred. A lot of people jumping on cars. I don't
think this has happened at a Trump rally. We've had some
skirmishes and some things, but this is how MSNBC and this
jabroni just sweeping under the rug,
I see people, a lot of people expressing their humanity in the
face of a candidate who was really built his candidacy,
people expressing their humanity against
taking their trousers off, what are they talking about? What
does he mean by that?
Their humanity, because they feel for humanity. That's why
you jump on a police car and throw bottles at
people, a lot of people expressing their humanity in the
face of a candidate who was really built his candidacy on
denouncing their humanity. And, yeah, there's a few people out
there who are not out there to actually protest. But at the end
of the day, they accomplished their goal they got on TV, and
they got their issues aired,
they have grievances, it's not like it's mindless, or they just
want violence. They're speaking up against someone who's really
attacking their community. You know, I think if you were Latino
immigrant, you would be frankly terrified and very angry. The
reality of him is one of 17 verses, he is the standard
bearer, he's going to represent one of our major parties is
frankly, terrifying,
terrifying, terrifying. Well, I'm sorry, there's no excuse for
that kind of behavior. And then of course, it's exactly the same
kind of behavior when the basketball team wins, I don't
see the difference
in America. And then finally,
this has got to be one of my favorite to
suppressing their humanity.
It's sad. Wow,
this was the this was a quick MSNBC hit with a guy on location
in Baltimore. Of course, we had this, you know, the judge
dismissed one of the six cops or seven cops, I guess there's six
months, the second
one that's got dismissed to be out there to your right.
And now there's a couple of problems with with the remaining
cops, this is a Freddie Gray, who broke his his spine got
severed in the cop car,
you get bounced around.
Paddy Wagon. So I guess one of the guys who got dismissed, you
know, he was the one that chased after him on the bike. And they
just held him until the other guys came. So it sounds
reasonable. But the remaining six officers are it's split,
three, black, three, white, and one and one of the black
officers is a woman. So this is this is you know, it's hard to
follow the narrative of, you know, this is clearly white
people hating black people. So now it's shifting a little bit.
It's all about cop culture. And where MSNBC takes it, in this
clip, where that cop culture is coming from is astounding. You
look
at and we can put the screen up of the officers charged in
connection with Freddie Gray's death. You see a number of
African American faces there three African Americans, three
white officers. Is this though also about police culture, where
you can have an African American officer also be charged in
connection with the death of a black person?
Wow, my brain hurts. I don't know how to answer that because
the black person hit another black versus? Well, I mean,
here's what you have to understand about Baltimore. In
terms of police culture, nearly 90% of our officers do not live
in Baltimore City. So you're having suburban values and mores
that influence
what's a Moray?
It's like a like,
it's like morals. No, it's a
it's kinda like values only only spread thinner. It's hard to you
know, kind of like your view your belief system as a whole.
It's a whole package of stuff.
Oh, okay. Well, that sounds kind of cool. Then it's been That was
always values and morals. But mores not races
award. Good. Thank you. Right, I think thank you.
So you're having suburban values and mores that influence the
policing strategy of nearly 90% of police force, African
American are white. Our police officers don't live in our
communities. They don't live in Freddie Gray's community. So
there's no way then.
John, I asked you, where's the influence coming from? Where is
this bad cop culture coming from? I
think Baltimore.
Well, since it's a black run city, with the black chief of
police and a black mayor and a black female mayor, and a black
District Attorney of black everything, I don't know,
the conversation that is happening had around this
country, that is not an exclusive issue facing
Baltimore, you have but that
is a part of police culture. There's no way for instance, if
you watch the wire, you see officers go into a community.
And when they hurt a boy and I, the residents in the show, began
to throw something at the police officers who viewed that show
before they began to police on in here in Baltimore. They're
looking at something and they're saying, wait a minute, those
people those people are our enemies. And I think that's
that's what sort of feeds the culture of policing that people
living in red light communities should be they should be afraid
of them and I think that's a very an underlying part of
police culture.
I think Black Lives Matter should protest the show the wire
and take it off the air. It is clearly influencing police thug
culture.
And what is this network MSNBC is absolutely a negative
influence on the culture as a whole and useless and bad. And I
would like to point out be ashamed of themselves the
Comcast are the ones who own this thing.
Yeah. Also, I need to point out
that you could also say and likely more real, that the true
people who sit behind the television for five hours a day
and watch crap like the wire would show that they are
inspired to throw stuff at the police because that's what
they're seeing.
But that didn't come up
yet, so we can blame the cops for being racist. Just blame him
for watching the wire.
It's a good show. It is a good show.
But apparently is bad for business.
It's horrible. All right.
You got anything else?
More lame stuff from these guys? Well, I do have one clip depends
on how much time you
if you got one clip was do one clip. Get us is good. It's got
to be good one we got to get out.
Out on a high. Well,
I don't know if this is good or bad. But let's play it because
I've been made meaning to play it. I was watching CBS. This is
not recently as a couple weeks ago and then they I figured that
they brought in an ant they did a whole anti pot thing. And I
thought it was worth listening to just to show you how they
like to you know we're going to we don't like pot and we're
going to make sure nobody else does.
AAA is out today with a sobering report on driving high.
Definitely crashes are up where weed is legal. For states plus
DC allow marijuana for recreational use. Medical
marijuana is available and 20 more. Kris Van Cleave has more
on this.
It was not on my radar. And what it took to put it on my radar
was the death of my 23 year old child.
It's been nearly three years since Mary Gaston son Blake was
hit and killed at a Bellevue Washington intersection by a
driver who was high on marijuana.
And he was laying in the middle of the intersection on the
ground had a massive head injury so he was he was bleeding
out. In 2012, Washington became one of the first states to
legalize marijuana. Now a new study by AAA found the number of
fatal accidents involving drivers who recently used pot
more than doubled between 2013 and 2014. When you drive around
smoking
notice that a good idea right.
The study also found currently there is no reliable test to
determine the amount of marijuana in the bloodstream
that leads to driver impairment. Jake Nelson is the AAA
Foundation's director of research. We're biologically
cannabis and alcohol are very different. And I think
policymakers trying to do the right thing are trying to
establish something like a point of aid for cannabis. And there's
just not science to support it.
Researchers instead encourage training officers to detect drug
impairment. This dash camera video shows a speeding driver
cutting through traffic and struggling to maintain his lane.
Now let me ask you this.
Where's the wheat at? Give you one chance to get the answer me
honestly.
Honestly, yeah, be honest. I smoke and I just finished
smoking my marijuana which by the way you smell it.
A 2015 federal government report found crash risk associated with
drugs like pot are highly influenced by other factors
including age and gender. Scott more than a dozen states are
considering measures to legalize marijuana.
Chris Van Cleave thanks we'll be back
in a little grab story. Now let me Washington state where it's
legal. We've noticed this people who smoke and drive the drive so
slow if they cause a wreck, it's because there's driving too damn
slow somebody rear ends them. They're all Mimi says they're
all over the places seeming and just telling you can look tell
by looking at it.
Yeah. And I believe that drive actually the drive quite
cautiously.
Yeah, they drive very cautiously. And I doubt I think
these
guys are but it's but but but but but I would say legalized
pot, okay. But you also have to have Uber and Lyft and other
ride sharing services. This is this is the way to do it. Do you
want to get fucked up? That's fine. But taking away your Uber
and all that stuff is bad. I agree. By the way as I got
something to tell you about the numbers that one of our
producers in ER here in Austin, he says clients were down 25%
The first weekend ie 25% Less people coming in messed up
because they just weren't going out.
It's hurting everything. Oh, you
mean because of the stupid thing they're doing in Austin about
Uber? So they're seeing a
drop in actual commerce. Yeah, actual commerce. Yeah, it
doesn't surprise me. But
they got that right. Awesome thing. The local guys are trying
to put something together. It's pretty cool. Yeah, it's it looks
like a loser. Yeah, but at least they're trying something. I
think you should combine it an app where you buy your weed and
Uber brings it smoke with the Uber driver.
Great idea. I'm telling you, man, you got the number
as the book of knowledge, the automated car and dude. We had a
request for an answer medley at the end of show so I've got that
lined up for you. And we will return on Sunday. One thing is
certain we will bring you some tech news. plenty to talk about
plenty to talk about. Indeed, including a prediction or to a
guy of a field. Everybody, thank you very much for tuning in.
Thank you for supporting the program. Another one coming up
on Sunday. Remember us at the vortech.org/na your support
really matters keeps us on the air. Keep everything else come
in use encryption if you can. And coming to you from the
skyscraper crackpot condo in downtown Austin Tay Haas FEMA
Region six in the morning everybody I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where I said there was something
going on about ants at the beginning of the show. And John
C. Dvorak will be back on Sunday right here on no agenda adios
mofos got ants ants
don't know if he would hit a you know ants we had an invasion. I
was thinking if you do if you desiccated a big pile of ants
and then ground them to a powder like mine, fine grind a black
pepper. We were having dinner and I got an aunt somehow it's a
meal and I ate it these things are peppery. I got ants
got ants these asset on the lot and then you see when you find
all the ones that are roaming around your life back to back
them off by doing the burning trick is torture. You leave it
there the only leader or occasion that you do not torch
and that's an ant that's carrying one of the dead ants
back I got ants got ants ants ants, ants,
ants, ants. and occasional moments where
endorse them to the location of moments where there's not
torture and that's that's an app that's carrying one of the dead
ends back. Oh, you have to be
one big hands, mostly bed bedrock, sand rocks, rock bands,
they don't need a lot of soil and that soil is
another mode you're sneaking up on other modes you're trying to
hurt people.
district does indeed work. The one of the things that the ants
will do in the kitchen is that they'll send a scout 123 or four
scouts out. And district district
and district administrators they find something they go back and
report back and go back and report back and go back and
report back. Next scene is in line. With some of the bends.
I recommend the metal Bend knees because then you can find all
the ones around you please leave them there Whoa, whoa, whoa,
