Okay, we need some coffee over here. Adam curry, John C.
Dvorak. It's Thursday, August 18 2016. This is your award
winning get my nation media assassination episode 852
This is no agenda
up to my ankles and rainwater and broadcasting live from the
cow the drone star Steve Austin Tejas here in FEMA Region six in
the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley where it's not raining, but it's
drizzling, drizzling. I say, I'm John C. Dvorak. Oh, man is
bad here.
I've heard that bad. And if there is water in my apartment
once again.
Aren't you on like the 17th floor or something? Yeah. Yeah.
It's coming right underneath my front door. This is why water
rolling into my part.
Yeah, you're not on the ground floor.
Oh, no, I think the roof is leaking and it's leaking down. I
don't know, some some piping or something. And it has found a
hole right in front of my door. So that kind of seeps out. Like,
Hey, what is this? This is water everywhere.
structure we do what an arrow.
Tell me about it. This is the cheapest cheap ass construction
they've ever ever could have thought of here, but have no
fear. The eras have been called up in Louisiana. That's right.
Terrorists. Yeah, the amateur radio emergency systems.
Oh, cool.
Thank you. SDK 73 is 33 and a third.
And so you know that actually, television this doesn't
translate very well to TV. But I received a report from one of
our producers this is really a pretty big disaster that's going
on you just can't you know all they keep showing on on the news
is this although great, great television the guy who saves the
lady and then saves her dog. That is great. But man Oh yeah,
fair contest. I mean, there's 1000s of people who are still on
the highway and stuck in
a keyless. This is like, it's like it's raining too much.
Yeah. Let me see if they called the 500 year flood. Let me just
see. This is from Kaylee at
1000. Year one recently. So now as a 500 is also 100 Recently,
so they're, they're good. They're running out of things to
say right? To go into 1000 to 10,000 or 2500. Or maybe 50.
Hey, read this note from a producer Caleb from Lafayette.
Nobody's ever experienced this kind of flooding here. People
are still stranded on the interstate 1000s are still
waiting to be rescued from homes more than 30,000 are in shelters
around town. And each of those shelters has a ham radio
operator there that everyone's in contact. Over 10,000 have
been rescued and that number continues to climb in one of the
towns I grew up in Denham Springs 90% of homes have been
flooded. My house is fine, but lots of friends aren't. And he
says it did take several days for the Obama administration to
declared his disaster to free up federal resources which was
disappointing because he's much quicker to talk about one person
being shot in Baton Rouge instead of 1000s Losing
everything I think that is an excellent point.
Excellent point.
But have no fear when the apocalypse comes where the guys
who are going to save the world. Right?
Right right.
seven threes on Sable. I
guess the hams are busy finally.
Yeah, the hams are good at that. That's also awesome. I was
listening in last night a couple of frequencies he was going on.
Yeah, what
is going on? Like we got people over here we got
that down now make a note of that your people we need some
coffee over here. We got to know that coffee.
It's kind of that yeah,
that would be right. But you know if something serious you
know some communication makes people feel better. You
know they can they're ever lost complete contact with everybody
in the outside world and the hams do that. If nothing else,
yeah, exactly. There's real emergencies they can jump into
action.
It was funny because the AR RL the Amateur Radio Relay League
sent out a note. This is very funny. Because you know how
these hams are they put on their emergency yellow jackets and
they're off they go amateur radio volunteers are responding
to help of US states of emergency been declared
Louisiana section amateur radio emergency services Eros has
activated and put out a call for volunteers please note amateurs
should not self deploy to the affected area.
Don't self deploy I guess you have to go to the group meeting
you can't just oh yeah no.
No I you know what they're
there at there.
This is how all of those guys like well honey. Sure helped
out. I guess I gotta buy a new rig now. You don't mind. It's a
good excuse to buy.
Yeah, I could have saved more people if only I had the right
rig.
Oh boy. Okay, there we go. Yeah, the only show that has humor.
And ham humor is usually pretty lame.
Although I think we brought it to a new level. Right.
I agree. I think we you are. In particular you are responsible
for this.
Thanks for getting I will totally take credit for that. I
really appreciate it.
And I think it's it's kind of just kind of steamrolled. We
probably picked up. I think I'm probably responsible or maybe
three to four hands.
Oh, more than that. Oh, no. There must be no agenda hams
website somewhere. I bet we're closer to 50 or 60. And really,
yes, I've done my job. Your work is done here, sir. Very good.
Back to day trading. Okay. Hey, last night, Jill Stein was on
the CNNs. Yes, with Cuomo.
I kind of missed that. And I missed the other thing else. I
missed the Trump thing.
I got I got some from the Trump thing, one clip and I have
actually two clips from this Joe and Jill Stein, along with
John mu Baraka. Yeah, he
is the the vice presidential candidate for the Green Party.
interesting guy. This beraksi right.
Well, he was part of the Human Rights Network. And he was one
of the co founders and I think Human Rights Network might
actually be one of the human rights organizations. That is
real. Oh, you know, human rights now rose front nasty. USA ID
Yeah. So I do not believe he's a US AI D guy. Do you pretty good.
No, he's got to kind of have Morgan Freeman. One earring and
left ear will add. I think after even I'm not wearing an earring
anymore. Got to stop that. This of course is the completely
spontaneous townhall good
with an earring in a ponytail. And a
nose ring. In a tat, yeah.
Right on the neck.
This is Chris Cuomo. And of course this is the townhall
completely free form and an open and just a conversation. Right.
Let's
get to another question. Jasmine. Ribbit Divya. She is a
second grade teacher from New York City. How badly do I mangle
your name? By the way? Let me hear it the right way. Rather
dive. Yeah. So close. I said.
Oh, currently undecided. Okay, so I guess they rehearsed
everything, including asking the questions. You're not supposed
to say.
You started out the show with a clip of the day.
I don't get one.
I'll give you a borderline. I'll take it.
I'm watching this and I'm in the kitchen. I'm like, Oh, stop,
rewind. What is that? Jill Stein is interesting. She was much
more interesting to listen to than Gary Johnson when he was
doing the similar town hall. Or at least she had some dynamics.
And she brought up something that we discussed probably two
election cycles ago when this program was just starting about
the debate committee. And how the debate committee is made up
of Republicans and Democrats and of course the biggest football
first of all, there are so many people who have been taught and
believe that we have a two party system in America if you go to
Europe and say about that American System Yeah, two party
system, which is categorically untrue. The the Republicans
Democrats would like you to believe that but you have all
kinds of candidates. And there are four different parties such
as the Green Party, the Libertarians or completely had
done a wonderful job. The Democrats are opponents of
convincing people of this bullcrap as a meme. And you get
you, you suggest, hey, why don't you vote for Jill Stein? If you
want a woman president, it's a wasted Vote. Vote for Jill Stein
is the vote for Trump. Well, here's I far as I could be a
vote for Hillary.
Here's Jill Stein explaining and this is good, since we don't
have to do it, explaining exactly what the problem is.
This is about we the people standing up as Americans, we not
only have a right to vote, we have a right to know who we can
vote for. And the Commission on Presidential Debates is not just
an ordinary public interest commission. It's a private
corporation that is run excuse me, of by and for the Democratic
and Republican parties. The League of Women Voters quit the
debates when the Commission came forward and they quit saying
this is a fraud being committed on the American vote. Voters
because it allows these two parties to set a standard for
admission that silences political opposition. We have a
right to know who our choices are. There are four candidates
who will be on the ballot that is four candidates for
president.
I see this is also a little weird, because there's many more
than four candidates. Isn't vermin supreme, a candidate, is
he not on the ballot?
Well, there's
a lot of guys that have declared for the presidency, but they
never went, they don't have the organization they can get, you
have to get you have to like
every single state or single state,
who will be on the ballot for just about every voter in the
country, that have the numerical possibility to actually win the
election. That represents a much greater diversity of choices
than just Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, where one of them
is a member of the billionaire club. But the other one has
actually been quite an ally and an advocate for the billionaire
club. So the American people deserve to hear from people who
are not part of that economic elite, and the political system
that serves it. So I want to encourage people to go to Gil
20 sixteen.com, and sign up on our campaign to open up the
debates and hold on to your hat and stay tuned, because I don't
think the American people are gonna take this sitting down,
there is too much at stake. We need to reopen
dream on Rush she's a little missed. Dream on
about that.
I didn't get She means well, but now the American citizenry
doesn't really doesn't know about this. And they weren't.
It's not in anyone and
they don't care. They're gonna vote for Trump or Clinton, one
of the two. I was wondering, it'd be a good story to write
which is, you know, Jill Stein wins or Johnson wins, so they
win. Okay, now what? Should I go to Washington? And can I get in
the White House? Hello, I'm the new President. I'd never heard
he go away. You know, Russia. You can't get in the White
House. They never gave you the keys. Talking about no Jeopardy
once you win, how do you get from there to actually take it
over? It's like buying a Boeing jet. There's like a process.
What if they decide that nobody's gonna give you the
keys? I'm sure I'm sure find your own way to pensive and Jill
Stein
were to win. There'll be a lot of volunteers popping up to help
her I'm sure the lot of you Oh, I know how to do this. Come on.
Bring let me in.
Were you okay, yeah. I just think that
amusing.
The Department of Homeland Security is in active
conversations with states about and you know, this is a now it's
gonna get bad about quote, shoring up cyber in their voting
systems. And they have some great advice.
Things are fine. Why are they doing this? Oh, no,
no, no, no, no, no. Johnson. There's a couple of memos back
and forth. And of course we had the DNC systems hacked and state
officials
only see
I have here the state's feel for most part they're in good shape
cybersecurity wise, as most of made sure their systems are self
contained and not Internet facing, said one representative
who agreed to speak on background
it is not the only problem with electronic balloting.
Nobody's ever this is what the State Department put out an
official memo said it is best not to have your voting machines
linked to the internet while voting is in progress. Yeah, no
shit Sherlock.
I'm still stunned by the absolute solid numbers that you
get when people say well we should all vote with the
internet we should just stay at home and and Verona computers
you imagine we didn't
talk about anything but you saw what happened to the Census and
Australia did a big census and was the first one online got
hacked immediately. Yeah, this is what the Theodore
race during this depression of this downturn which actually
began in 2000 and then it was re you know kind of restructured to
be more classic in 2008 which is now is yeah, we have because
there's so much time on people's hands we've bred an entire
generation over 20 years of unbelievably talented hackers
there are also a lot of talented IT guys and smart guys that do
what's the difference between IT guys and hackers itself and
I'm thinking of a hacker is being done not really having
enough time having any more time on his hands in a guy actually
works for accompany. I mean yeah, anyone could go do a
little hacking on the side. Yeah. We've got it this is over
to the serious thing is done
doesn't end well. From here on
Well, I got a clip of the sorrows and this stuff is not
being reported.
So a couple of things about the sorrows hack the website for
this sorrows hacky shit it has it almost looks like a
conspiracy theory website really poorly done. Yeah. And then they
do have it all night it's a real this is a real computer guy put
this together I can see how the subdirectories are lined up and
I couldn't there's not really like a smoking gun if you just
look at the whole thing you just say all the shit. This guy is in
everywhere doing everything and he could twist knobs and and
make stuff happen in any country. But there's not really
one smoking gun where someone is like, Hey, I got 10 million I'm
gonna go fuck the Russians. It's just not in there. No,
it's just the guy who's just a machine he's just got all this
money out there. So let's try to do this. Let's try to do that.
But it's like you know he's a he's an evil looking character
who seems to be no good. That's the way I see it. Now the funny
thing was not this is the report on RT this is kind of a
backgrounder. This is what's the name of this clip? I Kakkar
Soros and Russia the RT course has a bone to pick and their
thing is that resources out to screw up because he hates the
Russians. And he's all for it. You know, he's all for one world
government. No borders, borderless society is
all multicultural society. Everyone just be brown. Yeah,
as long as he keeps making money, he's, he's good with that
care. And he did. There was one thing that is annoying. And I'm
going to if anybody, we do have Russia today, producers that
listen to our show that I don't think they listen all the time,
but I'm going to I've been bitching about this for a while
when they put stuff up on the screen. Not all producers, but
most of the producers don't do voiceovers, they just put a
bunch of details on the screen. Nobody reads it, which makes it
impossible to get good clips. And what I'm going to say here
is what I noticed that with it because they said here's the
stuff that Soros was involved in, and then they listed, you
know, the Kosovo situation and one after another, and that will
this track money too. And it says and it but it always with,
I'd say 90% of them it went they were involved in this election,
and then it said Soros and you sad, huh? And it was almost
every one of these things that Soros is up to involves us a ID
and I'm wondering whether USA it is involved with Black Lives
Matter.
Yeah, sure. Indirectly, I'm sure I'm sure throws a lot of his
Open Society Institute NGOs received money from USA ID. So
indirectly with Bill, actually, it was a different edited the
house that was the guy's name one of the co founders was
living in belongs to an NGO funded by Soros. Yeah. So yeah,
yes, the answer is yes. Well, it's disgusting.
So let's play what Russia has to say about this.
Hackers have leaked over 2000 documents linked to billionaire
George Soros and his grant making organization called Open
Society Foundation. The papers exposed the group's ongoing
attempts to influence political processes in Europe and Russia
and elsewhere. Artis Guyon each account takes a closer to
humans from George Soros is Open Society Foundations show
persistent efforts by the organization to influence the
political process in Europe to reach out to European voters.
The organization has funded local advocacy groups, social
media projects and journalists. Here's an example over $130,000
went to a project by a group called EU Observer.
This project uses professional news reporting to foster debate
on how open society values are under stress in the run up to
the European election is that that publication
EU news observer, I think that's a website as well as No, that's
a different
EU Observer recruited experienced local journalists to
visit campaign events, conduct interviews and solicit high
level op eds in 16 countries.
While the Soros organization has been doing all this hard work
trying to influence politics in Europe. A leaked document shows
the organization's half a million dollar effort to find
evidence of Russia's alleged influence in Europe's political
life. The proposal reads quote, the evidence is still rather
sketchy and based more on strong allegations, hence the need to
first do a proper mapping and
quote, I think that the European public is under reacting.
I love the way dogs I think it is EU Observer John.
Well, when you're saying there's EU news,
no eu observer.com that okay, yes, definitely his
European public is under reacting. And that's why trying
to explain to them the real danger that Russia represents
from the leaked
document we also see that the Soros
team Feld was that established Blofeld, he sounds like a James
Bond and he's great name is
leaked document we also see that the source team recognizes the
problem of trying to accuse Russia of influencing politics
in Europe.
Naming and shaming from us is problematic. We also are in the
business of channeling money into other countries for
political purposes.
When he says democracy he means Soros ah cracy doesn't mean what
we might otherwise think of democracy. He wants to wreck
Europe. He that's why he's for all these these open borders and
these vast numbers of people coming in.
Over the years George Soros has been accused of meddling in
internal politics have a number of countries
trying to make the world a better place. But that's not
necessarily what we accomplish.
George Soros is known to have exclusive access to top US
policymakers. Hillary Clinton's emails show when she was
Secretary of State in 2011, she received an email from George
Soros with his recommendations on how to address a political
crisis in Albania. A week later, the person Soros recommended to
be sent as a mediator from the EU was in Albania, meeting with
politicians there. George Soros is now one of the top donors to
Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. And his influence
appears to be stretching much further than European politics.
In Washington, I'm going to check out
yeah, I'm looking at it right here. I see three donations in
2016. alone to the EU Observer from the Open Society Institute.
I didn't know that. And, you know,
well, if that kind of I looked at the beds he made for the
Brexit. And he went long on some gold stocks and physical gold.
And he went short
on did he?
I don't think he might have gone short on the pound again, I'm
not sure.
Well, that was a good bet. The pound went down. Yeah. Now, jobs
have gone up, though. They don't know what to do about that.
Because they're still stalling on joining. And so now the
employment has improved a lot since then. They did the vote.
I have a number of packages for today's show. And since you
brought up the foundation stuff do you want I did the package of
Charles Ortel.
Your buddy, yeah, you
want to do that now? Or do you want to? Yeah, let's go for it.
Okay. Now, Charles Charles Ortel, you can find him at
Charles ortel.com is an m&a Endless specialist. And he
stumbled across the Clinton Foundation, and he started
looking into it. And he is so out rented these, and he's not
at all. He knows a lot about charitable foundations. And then
he knows a lot about the legality. And that's really his
part of his profession. Certainly when it comes to m&a
have multiple 5013 C corpse so that he really knows what he's
talking about. And he became outraged as he started looking
into the Clinton Foundation and its many associated foundations.
And he has started writing about it talking about it. Of course,
he can barely get on mainstream you get on NPR, was it news
hour. But he's been on it. He's really been going to bet he's
been on democracy
and Democracy Now. That's
right. He,
he gets around a lot on alternative podcast now, because
that's the way to go. And his mission is to start
investigations in individual states. And the reason for that
is a president cannot pardon a crime committed in a state or
international crimes obviously. Then he I think he already has
Ohio investigating the Clinton Foundation a couple more
because, you know, I don't think I put this in this clip, but the
series of clips, what he hates the most is, you know, he says
look 80% The lower 80% of the lower 80% of the people in
America give money to foundations for good causes.
When we have a Haiti disaster it's really the poorest people
who don't think twice grab a couple bucks out of their pocket
book or texted or whatever, because they just want to help
people. But he said that all these people like the Clintons,
they're like Robin Hood inverse they they take the money and
give it to their rich buddy so that's really why he's doing
this and he was on two programs and
you know, it stuns me how long it took somebody to me it's not
that everyone's not
he actually explained Yeah, he actually explains this and and
why, you know why no one has really done this investigating.
This is a mixture of two different shows that I caught
him on, both on guy so there are some hiccups here and there. The
one I like the most is when he's on was a Stefan Molyneux knows
Molly Molyneux Marine. Yeah,
that guy. Yeah.
His head in front of a cam, and I'm not a big fan of his show,
but a big fan of his production. Yeah, maybe
that's it. Maybe that's it. And then these questions are okay.
But he did have him on and he does follow a value for value
model. So I appreciate that. And, you know, people should
definitely support stuff like that. I think also, when I look
at him, I feel uncomfortable, because I know that I too,
sometimes I'm talking completely out of my ass and thinking I'm
really right about something. And it just and I cringe when I
see him do it. Like God, that's one of the one I must be like,
because it does happen. Of course.
The audio Yeah, exactly. Okay,
here he is. The basis the basic problem of the Clinton
Foundation, which Tina the keeper was still outraged over
10 She is in the nonprofit sector is that it has never ever
been properly registered, you have a nonprofit, you have to
register exactly what you're going to do with that nonprofit.
Well, when you look at a clip, if any foundation, the Clinton
Foundation, in particular, you have to check and see what its
authorized tax exempt purposes are. And when because the entity
raises money from the public continuously as we're having
this interview. They're raising money. They have to actually be
very specific. And they're authorized tax exempt purposes,
stated in their application, which is dated on the 23rd of
December 2000. Sorry, 1997. Were just to be a presidential
archival facility in Little Rock and related research facility.
They never have been authorized, as far as I can tell from the
public filings that need to be out there so everyone can look.
They've never been authorized to do such things as fight HIV
AIDS, fight climate change, convene meetings in New York,
set up these various initiatives, they none of them
has actually been validly authorized, which means that
they have been raising money on the basis of false and
materially misleading public filings. And they've been doing
it using the mail using the internet using telephones, all
of which is a federal crime.
Now you go, so not properly registered, you got a problem.
And you recall, the IRS did go after a number of nonprofits,
all of them were small, religious, right wing groups,
but still went after him. As a Democrat, I think we played a
clip a couple weeks ago, Democratic Congresswoman,
Congresswoman Yeah,
in in Texas, I think.
And she had a slush fund, you know, $800,000 slush fund, and
you know, she's going to jail. And she's, you know, 23 count
indictment. So she's in trouble, but no, not the Clintons. But
why is it important that the registration be factual and
correct. And why
does this matter? The reason it matters is the IRS generally was
very suspicious about charities, because they're the perfect
vehicles for fraud if they're not controlled properly, if the
trustees aren't independent, if they don't have real audits, if
they don't make truthful filings concerning what they intend to
do and what they have done, then while the money that comes
towards the charity can simply be put in people's pockets, and
no one will ever know the difference.
Yeah, exactly.
So why doesn't the FBI or the IRS or somebody crack down on
this? Well, it's kind of what we, what we suspected the
problem was
so many red flags. Why isn't the IRS auditing the Clinton
Foundation? I think part of the reason is that unfortunately,
members of the Republican Party are involved in this, not
necessarily in the same way but the Bush family, Mike Huckabee,
others are tied to these various entities. So it's a bipartisan
problem. And it's so embarrassing. I mean, when you
look at this, when you think back to what happened, what is
alleged to have happened starting in March of 2010, when
the Justice Department and the IRS may have aggressively gone
against conservative Tea Party charities, and people who were
trying to become charities and had conservative leanings, when
you look at the way in which they were prosecuted and
persecuted, and you contrast it with the ways in which these
Clinton Foundation entities have been allowed to operate without
being punished. It's impossible to argue that in recent years,
that the scales of justice have been evenly balanced as concerns
right leaning and left leaning people. And you know, when you
open up this can of worms, what you're opening up is a domestic
political scandal. But in addition, one major scandal that
is global and scale is that global governments have given a
lot of money to the Clinton Foundation and their records do
not square with the Clinton Foundation filings concerning
how much money the Clinton Foundation believes it's
recently received. So in short, the government's have sent far
more money towards the Clinton Foundation than it appears show
up in the Clinton Foundation books.
That's how you do it apparently,
is a form of money laundering? No,
it is. It's money, not a form. It is the definition. Definition
of mine, I have two longer clips, the final two. And these
are the ones actually from willing to show. So better
audio. Long, yes. But I think very important just to
understand, because he doesn't give you any extraneous
information, it's really the information need to understand.
And the main one for me, of course, is Haiti. And when Haiti
took place, but you know, right off the bat, the strangest thing
that I thought was the shallowness of the earthquake.
And it you know, it was only Haiti, it pretty much stopped at
the border. You know, the only only messed up Haiti and I've
always, you know, suspected earthquake machines sometimes
are used. I know, I'm taking a bit to the crackpot level here.
But when you hear this and you hear that the Clintons had a
Haiti foundation set up in 2000, late 2009, just before the 2010
earthquake, I mean, you just got to say, I think
not.
So here is the full lowdown. on Haiti. You remember when we had
three presidents asking for, for water or blankets,
we just need cash. I know a lot of people want to send blankets
or water. Just send your cash at the time.
The
Clinton Bush Haiti Foundation was not even set up. So they
were just receiving this money into their own individual
foundations. And then we're supposed to send it later to the
Clinton Bush Haiti foundation. Here you go.
In 2009, the Clinton Foundation, Bill Clinton was appointed
special UN envoy to Haiti, there had been problems in Haiti. Bill
and Hillary have longstanding ties to Haiti. And in addition,
Clinton Foundation created illegally a new charity in
Florida called the William J. Clinton Foundation Corporation
net, I didn't create that as a subsidiary of the Clinton
Foundation, they created a new domestic Florida Corporation for
some unexplained reason around June 1 2009. And then they said
about trying to do business in Haiti on January 12 2010, there
was a horrific earthquake. It's estimated that 500,000 people
lost their lives, people open their hearts chief among them,
President Obama and his wife were kind enough to arrange for
$200,000 out of his Nobel Peace Prize winnings to be sent to the
nascent Clinton Bush Haiti fund. That is before it received its
IRS authorization. And this fund was it was really kind of
complicated. Bill claimed that he had the right to solicit for
it before the earthquake and during the earthquake before the
actual new fund was set up. He did not have that right. But he
nonetheless did it and is never properly accounted for what
happened with the money that came in through the Clinton
Foundation. Then in 2011, when they filed their return for
2010, the biggest expenditure of the parent Clinton Foundation
was $37.2 million supposedly sent to the Clinton Bush Haiti
fund. But when you check the actual disclosures as I have,
and we'll find that the money was sent to a post office box in
Maryland, when you check the Clinton Bush Haiti fund filings,
there was no office for the Clinton Bush Haiti fund in
Maryland. You certainly should go after the Clinton Bush Haiti
Fund and the Clinton fund for sending 37 point 2 million in
theory to a post office box and I asked you how do you do that?
Did they send a check to a post office box?
Just send the check over it's fine. I got a Pio box and man if
they did
that's brightline mail fraud right there. 2015. Last year, I
warned publicly many times the Clinton Foundation that it was
gonna have to refile its existing tax returns, they
protested and said they didn't have to then on the 16th of
November 2015. They said they had the corrected the problem.
They're badly wrong, because they refiled, among other
things, the 2010 form without correcting this 37 point 2
million without correcting their claim that they sent roughly 4
million in non cash items down to Haiti. Well, the Clinton Bush
Haiti fund has its own report. And that report says that it got
1 million in change in non cash items. So why the difference?
That's the small beer part of it the big beer,
you really think they took a whole bunch of like, diapers and
stuff, 3 million in cash.
You gotta love it is that this estimate that 14 billion in
total went from around the world to Haiti, you send $14 billion
of aid into an economy that only has 10 billion in total income,
that should have an impact. The Haitians are rioting in the
street. I've been contacted by some of these Haitians, I've
done various interviews about it. You know, it's one thing to
be a greedy capitalist. I understand that. It's another
thing to be Robin Hood in reverse. To steal from the poor
to give to your rich cronies Hades. Gold has literally been
stolen by a new company that Hillary Clinton's brother is a
trustee of that company. Hillary Clinton's brother doesn't know.
I suppose he could tell gold from silver like anybody else.
But he has no expertise in mining, why the Haitian
government given a privileged contract, and some startup
company to extract the gold from Haiti at the same time as people
are wallowing in the streets.
Yeah, now there you go. So I think that explains it very
well. Shenanigans. I tell you
the level of corruption is outrageous
and everybody's involved it Mike Huckabee might is the outrageous
part of it. That's why no one can do anything today. And if if
Huckabee is involved, which makes it real that that is
pathetic. Yeah. Who wants him in your club? Regardless, I mean,
it's just the point he's the holier than thou Baptist
preacher. Now come on,
to the final one is about and it is this is about this roll up
organization, which organization which Ortel calls a Ponzi scheme
called
laureate. And we talked about it briefly, Lauria, we haven't
discussed it.
Yeah, it's it's a holding company of universities that
were really failing. And this has been going on for a long
time. And they just keep raising money. And then with that money,
keeping this stuff afloat, and well, he explains the whole
business model and how the Clintons tie into it. Very
interesting. If you take into account the amount of noise
being made about Trump University,
all right, is a is a company that's trying to go public right
now. It used to be public. And it's really for those of us who
are involved in leveraged buyouts as I was in in finance.
It's a it's another case book study. So what happened was a
young young bunch of promoters, who their story which doesn't
ring true to me is that many of the people involved with this
thing, turned down prestigious universities back in the 1980s.
I think it was to instead get involved in various ventures and
ultimately found themselves in control of something called
Sylvan Learning Systems.
Do you remember that the Sylvan Learning Systems? Yes, I do.
Yeah. And that was kind of a weird operation. I was sketchy.
Yeah. Oh, by the way, this, make sure that Horowitz hears this
segment because a lot of financial stuff in here. That's
kind of kind of fun. I also
want to there's a friend of mine that used to be involved in, in
buying and selling universities and private ones. He knows
something but as I'm gonna have to contact Yes, definitely.
Definitely. I mean, this, this Ortel guy, it's fantastic. What
he's done.
I should mention some a Trump University and some of this
other stuff. They're always condemning Trump for it. I'm not
here to defend Trump. But he all he was doing with his ties and
his suits and all that stuff. He's got nothing to do with this
stuff. He's not like, you know, Carl Icahn, who buys GW A, and
then starts meddling in the company. He's just licensing his
name from all I can tell. Yeah. Yeah. He just gets his Titon
around because he's licensing his name to just about every
jerk off that comes along. And once Yeah, hey, yeah,
exactly. That may not be defensible, but it's what he's
doing not defensive, not defensible. It should business,
I wouldn't want to be in that business. Although I am going to
do reverse mortgages screw up. I'm taking your house something
called Sylvan Learning Systems, which was a place you'd send
your kids to if they're having trouble on standardized tests.
That entity mile
chat room just said Sylvan Learning Systems is located in
Baltimore. I wonder if they have a peel box
on standardized tests. That entity migrated after went
public into buying university campuses. I think the first one
was in Spain, that weren't cutting it in the given country
where they were operating back by the time this thing was taken
private in August of 2007. Warrior, I think was the largest
chain of for profit university systems in the world. And it
wasn't it's not I think its biggest locus of operations is
down in South America, but they're all over the place. I
think Laurie, it is the is a gigantic Ponzi scheme. What it
is, is it's in they managed to convince people to lend the
money or give, you know, provide financing to acquire these
derelict campuses. And they've been growing and growing and
growing, always getting more and more debt behind them. They took
this thing private in August 2007. When the world was crazy,
it was just past the point where the the bubble had blown up. And
they managed hats off in a way to these promoters. They managed
to play off Henry Kravis and Stevie Cohen and Goldman Sachs
and Citibank private equity, a lot of very sharp people. They
convinced him to do this deal at a fantastic entry valuation.
It's not let's just talk about that for a second. I don't think
everyone understands the process of
a leveraged buyout. Okay, that's your cue.
Oh, I'm Yeah, leveraged buyout is where you're free. Here's
here's an example of this kind of leverage bias that go on I
got a lecture from the one time CEO of Barnes and Noble in his
office when I was pitching him something and he says
vinegar book no
typical type of thing though the vinegar book is on its way I
assume he's actually all in on it I never delivered a course
I've got to get off that that track
great idea we'll get it in stores by Thursday.
I'll talk to you later. Good pitch good work everybody good
meaty, his this is one version leveraged buyouts are where you
buy the company and then use the company's assets to leverage the
purchase. That's it. That's it in a nutshell but one of the
things he was bitching about which is the way the publishing
industry was doing it was like Pearson for example. They bought
everybody this ruin that computer book business. Pearson
bought all the computer book publishers they bought and
Macmillan they bought Peach Pit they bought everybody. Q and
everybody in between and made one giant corporation with all
these little publishers and they
didn't vn you buy all of that later.
I don't know maybe I don't know what the relationship between
Pearson I think Pierce is still independent. Are they were
bought by Pearson Pearson is is monstrous. But it's but what the
deal was was these companies, you'd buy a small publisher. And
then to pay for the purchase of the publisher. You jack up the
prices of the books. Yeah,
it was that easy. And you sell off the pension fund, you steal
the pension fund? Well,
you can do that because it's a new company. Right? But So was
he and he was bitching about because Barnes and Noble was
like, really into low prices. Because people don't want to do
that. You know, this was the days they were getting they stem
from the days of the 25 cent paperback, right. Hey, we're
back. So now like, you know, 56789 $10 and you have talked
about the real paperbacks, a little bitty ones, not the trade
paperbacks as they're known. And so they would, so every
publisher come along and they buy this guy, that guy that
again, they just jack up everything two bucks, and within
two quarters, they just paid for the purchase of the publisher.
That's a form of a leveraged buyout. In other words, you use
the assets of the company, you reprice things, you'd gouge you
do anything you can, and then then the purchase of the
company. Although you end up keeping the debt and pocketing
the money is beside the point. The books look good.
And usually the insiders make a ton of money on this. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that was a business. Yeah. Is it? There's a great movie to
watch. If you haven't seen it. I think it's on HBO called
barbarians at the gate.
Is this classic, classic story that actually goes back to the
Nabisco RJ Reynolds. Yeah. And that was at the time the biggest
deal ever done. Ever. And it was by today's standards. It's
laughable. Yeah. Very laughable. That story discusses how they
kind of jiggered with the books and fooled around. And there are
people that are specialists in leveraged buyouts, and they just
what they do when they, they see an opportunity, in other words,
you see, what you do is you see the book publishing company and
you say, you know, in today's market, these books are under
priced, what happens what what are the numbers look like, on
the spreadsheet, if we jack the prices up by three bucks a book,
right, then somebody runs the numbers, because you can do that
in a spreadsheet, we
can split it up and remove and somebody says, Oh, okay, that
means this company is actually worth this, if I do that, so we
can buy it at this lower price. And then we can use the
difference that is the leverage to make this buyout work. And,
yeah, it says the whole country is being scammed like this. So
the
the point here is that, and the way it works is you're public.
And then people want to take it private, which is pretty much
making an offer for the shares. And they outbid, apparently,
Kravitz, you know, KKR, and Goldman Sachs, all those guys
with a huge valuation, which, you know, is means that there's
lots of friends on the inside doing stuff for people who are
helping prop up this valuation. That's, that's okay. So we've
explained that
at a fantastic and truly Yeah, well enough, valuation is super
cool, crazy high price. And right after close in August of
2007, when no one was really in control of it, the world blew
up. And they struggled with this thing, but they had all this
wealth, you know, powerful people behind it, it didn't want
it to fail. By 2010. They convinced Bill Clinton to be
chancellor of Florida, the highest paid guy, part time
work. The facts suggest that this the Clinton and upper
extension his wife, with whom he's still married, made an
average of 3.3 million from 2010 2015 for part time work.
That's a lot of money to make for full time work, let alone
part time work. And what were they doing? You know, what was
Lauria doing? He was convincing people who for whatever reason,
couldn't get in to the great state sponsored or private
schools around the world to basically take out subprime
financing to to participate in these various degree programs.
How evil
is that? I set something up to give people subprime financing
to get the leverage. Yeah, of course, that's the leverage and
get and get them into your crap, crappy schools. But the fallout
is, I mean, these are, these aren't people looking to make a
quick buck in real estate, these are people who are going to
college and having trouble getting getting into the school
they wanted to, and he will let you in as long as you take our
financing. He's not exactly a
list of these schools, because I'll bet you every one of them a
second rate, oh,
that's what he said. He said they were all failing campuses,
exactly, to participate in these various degree programs, where
there's scant evidence that you'd be better off for
borrowing money to do all this work. So they were preying on
vulnerable people around the world. And the capital behind
this deal needed to get out. I mean, typically, when capital
does this type of stuff, you want to get out after two and a
half, three and a half years. By 2012. That capital hadn't been
able to get out. So they tried to go public, and they failed.
So in January of 2013, somehow, the International Finance
Corporation, part of the World Bank agreed to invest 100
million in Lorien, to have a fund that it control put 50
million on board, and to have the Korean investment
corporation put another 50 million.
It's nice to have friends, isn't
it? Tam? Well, that's what Clinton comes in handy. Exactly.
And as I guess that investment helped the capital, reassure the
ultimate providers of capital through their funds, that
everything was fine with Laura. But if you look at the filing,
they're trying to go public. Now they filed in October of 2015,
to try to go public and restructure their debt. You look
at the course of this thing. The the performance is a disaster,
revenues are gone. But the profits have turned into massive
losses, massive cashflow losses, this thing has over 4 billion of
stated debt, it has net worth remaining net worth less than
400 million, which is a prohibitively high ratio. It's
got debt in the US, it's got assets and operations and
countries that are you know, in turmoil like Brazil, and
elsewhere. And the SEC, and a lot of people when I brought
this thing up last year would say, well, who's going to
investigate it, the SEC is already looking at this as they
do with any public offering. So the SEC has a file open on this,
state regulators have a file open on this government's ever
files open on this. And the biggest warning sign for
somebody like me who's looked at this in the past, you look at
the risk factor section for this offering. And there's an entry
that says this company has a material weakness in its
internal financial controls, that is serious. And that will
not be fixed until 2017 at the earliest.
Now, I will say I've seen lots of warning. Even Google had some
pretty interesting warnings in their s one filing document. But
to say that you don't have you have a problem with internal
financial controls. Yeah,
I'd say that's, that's, yeah, those the filings are always
have a lot of bad, a lot of bad news in the day, because you
have to put the possibilities into that you're not gonna make
it. Yeah. And so they're always have a lot of negative stuff in
that company that has real negative stuff is different.
here's the, here's the colleges we have in North America candle,
the new School of Architecture and Design, or the new new
school is the name of that, and that
is the Connecticut School of broadcasting on the list.
I think they folded Santa Fe University of Art and Design, a
University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences and Walden
University. So if any of you out there, listen to the show, going
to the schools, let
us know, let us know. Let us know what you think
minute left, and that will not be fixed until 2017 at the
earliest. That's a huge red flag. I mean, the guys running
this thing had been in it since 1999. Why today? Should it have
a material weakness on something this complicated? This
international with this much debt? There's no excuse for
that. And why are the Koreans trying to sell out they just
bought it in 2013. It reeks and again, this is based in
Qualtrics. A related topic is that the same law firm that is
representing the company is the law firm that supposedly was
independently involved clearing the Clinton Foundation filings
back in November 2015. Kathy Keneally, who used to work in
the Obama Justice Department joined this firm DLA Piper,
that's the Lauria Council and she made a big deal of saying
you know, we hired a firm that had no connection with Glenn
foundation that's not true. It had an ad a connection through
Lauriat so this is a you know, this is another textbook case in
how not to do a buyout and how not to report for charity.
We just need cash. I know a lot of people want to send blankets
or water just send your cash
and there you go. Thanks to our brother in arms for getting
Nortel on with an interview. That's
really good. Yeah,
it's a mess. It's but you know, really,
this guy's got the goods on these guys think somebody pick
up the ball, but because
of the full on corruption, how many people are involved that no
one wants to do that. It's a lot like the Gulin two charter
schools you know, everyone's on junkets to Turkey. Oh, rock that
boat, and we'd like getting our
rugs once a year. Yeah.
But to show you just how horrible the media really is,
and remember, this is a media deconstruction. CNN did a report
about Milwaukee and then we'll probably play the Trump
Milwaukee clip that I have. And they they brought in a little
short clip of the sister of the guy who was killed and of
course, the cops say he had a gun.
Oh, yeah, this is a classic. Everybody's on on this one.
Yeah,
so this is what CNN reported. What his sister said. Oops,
sorry. This one here
is family and friends holding a vigil marked by prayers. With
his sister calling for peace Milwaukee Police say they made
multiple arrests overnight. We're still waiting.
Okay, so you what you heard his sister their say was don't bring
the violence here. Don't do this. Now what she actually said
and I'm not in agreement with a lot of the websites out there
that are that they also did a disservice I think to this young
lady, because what she's saying I'll give her 10 points for hey,
let's not burn up our own stuff. And it's actually funny she says
our weave shops which is cool. But I gave her you know, minus
10 points for saying you know, take it to the suburbs here you
can listen to the whole piece of audio, which I think is
important to listen to. It does show a grievance that I'm aware
of as a non poor person not as poor as she is clearly I do not
live in a ghetto although I do have water in my apartment so
and she's she's talking to the police so the press is there but
the police are standing right there and they're starting to
put in you know they're expecting some some problems and
they're getting ready to put it on their helmets and their and
their What do you call it not their riot gear they have a
different anti anti hurt gear anti hurt me gear
burning down gas session we need in our community we don't want
to hire somebody take this ship farther out. Don't
ignore everything we fucking got everything. That was our enemy
all day yesterday. I got some feelings about that. Snap out
your blood know what the fuck the hell am I gonna do? I lost
my brother. My brother had one helmet. He had one by Sue to
save his life. You're looking at us like we didn't we didn't
enemies. We not only not the way to fuck it was what we need in
our community to fix this motherfucker. You're trying to
tell us what we do. And how savage? We looked like we did
with the vibe, the vibe. The vibe I don't know what the fuck
we beat every day. What's y'all we are doing a fine with
everybody to keep our peace of mind. I understand that she's
gonna think like, they in the city. They wish to trick them
how they look like they don't know why we act and like, come
down here and talk to her. And you're just love her not what
they say I'm not one of them. I'm sorry for your loss. They
said I can't talk but they talking amongst each other. You
know how bad this you think we're gonna get reckless out
here. It's gonna get way worse. Until we get justice. It's
almost like a star filler where we come from, it's gonna hit
everywhere. And I'm not saying I'm I'm glad about it, or I
appreciate it. Or I'm even grateful to my father for crazy
because I'm not going to get answers to give it y'all want us
to see here be quiet, get welfare check and get
the fuck burned down to nothing. And that's all I gotta say can
do to finish that.
I feel that the mainstream should be playing this. I mean,
they can bleep out all the F words a lot of you know, but
that sounded pretty genuine and I understand the
anger. Yeah. And she's saying, Hey, you got to fix this.
Come here, talk to us. You know, so it was a double whammy where
the mainstream said oh, she just people Asking for peace and
prayer and love and light. And then the alternative media which
turned her into some hateful woman. Yeah, hate whitey. Yeah.
Because they'd go burned down in the suburbs.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't I don't think it's either now and she's this is a
real problem. And the problem is it. Thank goodness getting out
on mainstream news more and more is that this is the policies
that have ruined schools. Actually, Donald Trump, when he
was in Wisconsin, I saw the whole speech. And it was it was
pretty cool because it was supposed to happen at nine
Eastern. And
because he had switched from a rally to aid as his campaign had
said, a teleprompter speech. All the new everyone in the news Oh,
okay, this is gonna be off. What is he gonna do? He's in
Wisconsin. Oh, it's probable. So they all were waiting. And he
let them wait until 10. And 10 is the magic hour? Because
that's when the local news kicks in. And the network's don't have
the time. And you know, Rachel Maddow was so mad. This is
crazy. You know, don't they know that? We're waiting? Like, yeah,
he's probably in his plane. Watching MSNBC. Seeing you get
mad and like, No, not yet. Not yet. Not yet. Oh, there's steam
coming out of your ears. Yeah, let's go now. He was it was
that's the way I see it. At least I thought that was very
funny.
It's kind of ironic,
too, because Hillary's left people are waiting for Oh, yeah.
I think one time three hours, people was just sitting there
waiting for three hours for her to show up to give a speech. But
I don't think it was for for some nefarious reasons. I think
it's because she, you know, I'm
convinced Trump meeting and making them wait, I'm convinced
of it.
Could be, it wouldn't surprise me.
I pulled one. I'm sorry. Okay, well
go on finish this up.
I put one clip where he creates a new term, which I like
something that we've we've used this syndrome. Yeah. Trump.
Yeah, Trump. This is Wisconsin speech. He's talking about the
insiders. I thought a lot of this speech really hit the mark.
There was very much oriented towards as he says, African
Americans, I want your vote, the Democrats have screwed you. He
said that over and over again. Nice to hear all the white
people cheering for that. And here he is on the insiders.
When we talk about the insider who we talking about. It's the
comfortable politicians looking out for their own interests is
the lobbyist who know how to insert that perfect loophole
into every single bill and get richer and richer and richer at
your expense is the financial industry that knows how to
regulate their competition right out of existence. So there is no
competition. The Insiders also include the media executives,
anchors and journalists in Washington, Los Angeles and New
York City who are part of the same failed status quo and want
nothing to change they don't want it to change. They like it
just fine the way it is now
is he's channeling
Carlin here I
think George Carlin
little bit yeah, every day.
Most people like the status quo if they're if they're
comfortable, yeah,
you like it just fine the way it is now. Every day you pick up a
newspaper or turn on the nightly news. And you hear about some
self interest banker or some self discredited Washington
insider
self discredited. Do you discredit yourself often I tried
to stay away from doing that. I wasn't quite sure what he meant
what he meant by that he but he probably were referring to one
specific person.
Well, he was off script a lot because I got the transcript as
delivered to the press which I presume was in a teleprompter.
But he went off script quite a bit I'd say every two lines he
was inserting stuff does
banker or some self discredited Washington insider say they
oppose Donald Trump's campaign or some incrusted old politician
says they oppose
and this is interesting when he's reading he doesn't say says
he says SES
really is odd. Yeah.
Like how we say measure. I just love saying I never
say major I do. You started me on it. How do you say how do you
say it measure it's exactly what I said major.
Most people are supposed to be most people say measure measure.
Yeah. But but we say measure and he I think that's probably
Chicago and he doesn't say says SES at all.
politician says they oppose our campaign or some big time
lobbyists says they
weird man.
Wow, that's a good catch. You're on a roll today. I'm sorry
for some big time lobbies, says they oppose the camp. Pain of
Trump, I wear their opposition as a badge of honor. Because it
means I'm fighting. I'm fighting all of us across the country are
fighting for a peaceful regime change in our own country.
I thought that was one of the better quotes that I think
that's really good peaceful regime change in our own
country. I like that
peaceful regime change in our own country. He
didn't say in this country, he said in our own country, a
double whammy in change
in our own country. The media donor political complex, that's
bled this country dry has to be replaced with a new government
of by and for
I like that the media don't or political, political complex.
A well it's a twist on a classic. It's a twist on the
classic. You gotta love it.
Well, they had a couple of things come out like the they
had, I guess, the CEO chairman, or the chairman of NBC came out
and blasted him and he did that on a private Facebook post. I
know somebody leaked it. It's of course, which is just like
perfect as we know, MSNBC is in the bag for Hillary. Yeah. And
so that's just proves, you know, it comes from the top and it
always comes from the top and people should realize that. I
mean, do you have a clip of
what he said or because I don't have
it so because it was on Facebook I have here. Yes.
This is how AP reports it my favorite word. The chairman of
NBC entertainment slammed Donald Trump, the network's one time
apprentice star as toxic and demented. In a private Facebook
post that became public. Robert Greenblatt's post refers to
quote a sad state of affairs, thanks to a pompous businessman
turned reality TV star who thinks that speaking his mind is
refreshing, it's actually corrosive and toxic, because his
mind is so demented, and his effect will unfortunately linger
long after he's been told to get off the stage.
Ego seems a bit hateful. Hey, yeah.
But of course, you know what, you know, don't post this stuff
on face bag people.
It goes an idiot.
A the stuff that gets out. I mean, yeah, me anyone can make a
small mistake and put something up there. So I love what he
said, right? I mean, I've done it myself. So the thing that
they've done is to is to try to shake up the I don't know what
they're worried about. I mean, everybody says this guys is
losing by 10 points everywhere. So So what is the problem? Yeah.
But there seems to be a problem. So they so they they railroaded
Paul Manafort into having to resign. Well, that's
the story. I'm not so sure. That's what happened behind the
scenes. I mean, that's the way it's been interpreted, and the
way it's been played, but maybe we just got some new dudes in.
Yeah, that's kind of well, but Manafort has been demoted, or
his title has been changed. I don't know.
It's the exact same change. But there's now a CEO, which he's
the chairman. And so you'd
see on the NASDAQ head of a campaign, which is curiously
Kellyanne,
yeah, that's the chick from isn't she on CNN all the time as
the Republican one I
keep talking about they put her on as as a straw man. Yeah. And
then guys like Don Lemon, just reread her. Yeah. humiliate her
as best they can. She did come on and kind of said something
like that on the NewsHour. And but there was one thing, there
was a meme that came out Woodruff has it and it's the
wonder of, she asked Kellyanne about this particular meme. Do I
have it here? She say Woodruff somewhere. I have all my clips.
Right.
National question, national
agency, nation this question this nation, this question from
Woodruff
I just want to squeeze in one last question. And that is the
description of the philosophy of this campaign as nationalist
almost isolationist, is that something you accept?
No I that I emphatically rejected. And as I said, Judy,
just hours ago, I sat in a roundtable with former and
current congressmen, with generals with elected officials
at very high levels with national security and foreign
policy experts. And that was not the talk around. That was not
the conversation around the table. I assure you, we allowed
the press in. And so no, I reject that. But I'm not
surprised critics and naysayers have to do that. Look, the only
thing I would ask of the Clinton campaign and many of their
sympathizers is when you're asked a question about Hillary
Clinton. Try not to say Donald Trump every other word.
Now, she did mention that Manafort was at that meeting,
and so nothing that appeared to her to be changed either but
they have been doing a job on Manafort. And that's including I
saw them report on on RT. And then they did a hit piece on him
one of those and we've talked about this before on the show.
This is the kind of hit piece where you make all these
accusations and then to get confirmation, you ask somebody
and they either answer a completely different question,
or the answer in the in the opposite direction. But you But
you keep the intensity up as though you are busting this
guy's chops. But there's no evidence at all. It's like it's
all hollow. And CBS is not the best at this. I forgot we broke
this down before I think was ABC that did one of the best jobs on
this sort of reporting. Right. All right. But this is the CBS
hit piece on Manafort.
The Trump campaign manager who was pushed aside as Republican
strategist Paul Manafort and like many consultants, Manafort
hired out to campaigns in other countries. One of his clients
was the pro Russian president of Ukraine and was later
overthrown. Now, Manafort name has come up in a mysterious
ledger that suggests payments for his talents suggests Charlie
Janka is in Ukraine.
The Tsar Khalid Netsky is Ukraine's new anti corruption
prosecutor, leading the investigation into the secret
handwritten ledger showing $5 billion in undisclosed cash
payments that were allegedly handed out by the party of
former President Victor Yannick COVID ledge. Client at the time.
The prosecutor confirmed that Manna forts name appears 12
times for 22 different entries totaling $12.7 million between
2007 and 2012. Are his signatures there?
No, there is no any signature of Paul Manafort, but his name has
been mentioned several times.
Manafort has denied receiving
would. Did you hear that? No. They get
all wound up on this. And they said, and then you find they get
to the guy who is the head of this investigation, or he's the
head of the anti corruption bureau? Is it was Paul Manafort
signature there? The guy says no,
of course, but his name is being mentioned, several
names being mentioned.
Right. Let me go back again. That's pretty crazy. This is
very suggestive.
There is not any signature of Paul Manafort, but his name is
being mentioned.
Wow. My goodness.
See, you already been hit. I
know. I know. I know. It blows right
over here. The whitewash is right across. The Denizer.
Denial is pretty washes right across because this is a design
to hit piece. Yeah. And CBS should be ashamed of itself for
doing this sort of reporting. I say this every time I run into
one of these hit pieces. It's not a it's not a hit piece with
any substance. No, there's no substance. It's just
suggestions. allegations. guy's name was mentioned.
Manafort has denied receiving any cash payments. Investigators
say they're now tracking down each recipient who signed for
the cash. The Ledger itself is here at the National anti
corruption bureau. We weren't allowed to film it because of
the ongoing investigation. But a source showed us a copy of one
of the pages on October 5 2012. Paul Manafort 's name appears
against the sum of $400,000 designated for exit polling,
another 812,000 was marked for international observers backed
by Russia, again, a COVID was accused of corruption to fund a
lavish lifestyle, including a palatial mansion complete with a
private Zoo. He was overthrown in 2014.
A couple of other little elements. Yeah, sure. Yeah.
Crazy, crazy, rich guilt, like the guy guilt by association at
the end, a little icing on the cake. How about
we take a look at Madeleine Albright and who she deals with
and who
she's actually doing these dirty deals? This was true in this
case, and let me tell you a couple of things. Because of the
you know, we have socialists that are in you in Ukraine. And
the way this would be done with if it was a corrupt system is
you'd put Paul Matt and Paul Manafort didn't sign anything
and receive anything he's just name is. So you're doing a deal.
You want to steal $400,000? How are you going to do that? Well,
I don't know. Let's put this put this American consultant we use
him because they talk about what they used him for his. He was a
strategy consultant for politics. He had nothing to do
with campaigning in this case. So you just put his name down,
write it down and then put $100,000 is and then I'm paying
to $4,000 and you shouldn't give it to your buddy next door. And
then but on the books, it looks like you went to Paul Manafort
who never signed for it or anything, but this is all non
sense I mean, this whole this whole report was a an outrageous
and outrageous hit piece that wasn't even called for. I don't
even know what the point of it was. Well,
no, I do. Oh, we'll hear your second clip and I'll tell you a
little bit of part two, which
just brings it out a little bit also at the same onerous tone so
you don't realize that the guy is saying this didn't happen as
bullcrap
Manafort helped Deanna COVID win several elections, and former co
workers Condrey are an ally of defending Manafort. Paul. Paul
didn't run expensive technology projects. He said he worked
mostly in foreign policy. So I don't understand what this is
about. Just Paul Manafort continued to work for Janna.
COVID his party even after the former president fled,
investigators believe the Ledger was left behind in party
headquarters. And Scott, the person who handed over that
ledger is now in hiding.
Okay, hold on a second. There's more to this. It was left
behind. How does that jive with left behind and handed over? If
it was left behind, it was left behind and discovered right. Now
how was it? How was the guy who handed it over? Now in hiding,
which is another thing to just create this atmosphere of
suspicion? Yes, secrecy. And yeah, which is,
but who handed it over if it was left behind? That is even
illogical? Well,
here's, here's here's how I see it. There was there was a
meeting and then it was left on the table. The guy sees it, puts
it in his bag
gives it? I don't think so they would
have put that I don't think so either. This is a nonsense
report with contradictory information filled with the
cognitive dissonance, this sort of thing. It was left behind,
but somebody turned it in. I mean, it this that right there.
Those two sentences side by side are cognitive dissonance. Yes,
they're designed. This entire report is designed to confuse
you. This guy comes out and he says, I don't know what, what
why they're blaming him for anything. He just came to do
some policy stuff. He didn't do as far as I can tell. He didn't
do anything. And that's presented in a way as though he
did. And there's no excuses for
this. But of course, this is to tie Trump to Russia, and
political Ranas story. Again, no audio of Nancy Pelosi and other
Democratic leaders putting out a warning that of course is meant
to help Hillary for any October surprise that may October cyber
surprise. Nancy Pelosi among those sounding the alarm saying
echoing security experts who say Russian security services have
been known to Doctor documents and images or bury fictitious,
damaging details amid genuine information. So yeah, I'm on
like, you know, there's all those emails they've been
doctored.
Well, they there's I got a funny clip on that too. But before we
go there, can we just play this Trump Putin mocked by Archie
this connection between Trump and Putin?
While the scandal over Hillary Clinton's emails that apparently
worsens the public attentions, is it? Well, I'm glad you fixed
on her main rival, Donald Trump's suppose it ties with
Russia and Vladimir Putin certainly keeping the media
tongues wagging in America.
Donald Trump is also facing questions tonight about his
relationship with Vladimir Putin
in the Clinton campaign. They really jumped down on this story
pointing out what it calls troubling connections between
Trump's campaign and pro Russian elements. explained to
us the Russia's love affair with Trump.
Trump's relationship with the Kremlin has been under scrutiny.
It seems CNBC thinks it's found a watertight connection between
the Russian leader and the Republican presidential nominee
through his daughter Ivanka. Well, because she posted a photo
with Wendy Deng, the ex wife of media mogul Rupert Murdoch.
Well, according to the tabloid Us Weekly Wendy used to date
Vladimir Putin, while another news outlet has found even more
alleged proof of Trump's close ties with Russia. The New York
Times has pointed out that Donald Trump's campaign chairman
Paul Manafort was in the pay of the previous Ukrainian
government as an advisor. He allegedly received millions from
the ruling pro Russian party allegedly
allegedly Yeah, unbelievable. Yeah, you gotta think why are
they so afraid of him? Yeah, so he got to think why is that the
polls say they shouldn't have to worry you right
now the poll says it says you can coast
worries no worries. Well with that
I'd like to thank you for your courage. It's a in the morning
to you John. With the C stands for complex of political donors
and media DeVore Ack.

Douglas holler in Portland, Oregon for under $20 for 204 20.
Greetings John and Adam I have traveled great distances and
says since I last donated have been taken for granted, or have
been taking for granted the effort and cost of providing the
best podcast in the universe, which was over overwhelming
value while downloading the previous show to listen to to
during a four hour drive. I was annoyed to find how slow the
episode was downloading. Naturally I blamed my internet
provider because they suck. But upon listening to the second
donation segment, I became enlightened to what was likely
the cause of my problem and excessive number of douchebags
who have been long since listeners who never donate to
the offset the cost of the growing audience. Speaking of a
longtime douchebag says my last donation is coming to my
attention that the carpool buddy who so graciously hit me in the
mouth last year has yet to donate. Oh even texted me soon
after the show saying he would for the outrage. I not only
called Josh reed out as a douchebag. I also issue him a
challenge to achieve knighthood before I do. Come at me bro.
Thank you again for the best podcast and universal dharma.
You've got karma
following his cue sheet. Yeah, cue sheet for me.
It nailed it. Andrew C word in Laurinburg. North Carolina came
in with a note that he wrote by hand and let me see if I have it
here. Doo doo doo doo doo doo.
Let me see if I have something.
I have it. Okay, you got Andrew word? No sound effects for me.
All right, it's time to get serious. He says. In my last
letter, I made some silly jokes about Trump pumping, while Adam
see seemed mildly amused This seemed to piss off, John. It
seems that I underestimated the scope of the problem. And so all
joking aside, please allow me to set the record straight. We're
seeing an unprecedented wave of bias and propaganda in the
modern media against the candidate that the establishment
considers a great threat to their power and wealth. The fact
that the no agenda show is focusing so much attention on
Trump has absolutely nothing to do with Trump. It has everything
to do with a coordinated intentional effort to mislead
the public about a presidential candidate and derail his
campaign. A clip of the day from then a show 848 demonstrated
this wonderfully as CNN hope host admits on the air while his
co hosts laughs and he says, I know I know we couldn't help her
any more than we have gotten a free ride from the media's
comer, the biggest ones promoting her campaign. How
brazen. The bias against Bernie Sanders was nearly as bad. And
we have by the way, there's something I always forget to
mention on the show is that well, Trump was getting these
huge, huge audiences and the media was covering him closely
to ridicule him. Bernie was getting bigger audience and then
they weren't covering the Anything I have they were just
they were just right. It's the same thing you ignore this guy.
Same thing.
I have the that Cuomo thing. It's 20 seconds, might as well
play it. So everyone hears,
hey quite a while longer what happens to other folks who want
to run against her because
she's doing what they call them politics, freezing pockets,
because the donors are giving her money thinking she's going
to run that means are not going to have available money for
other candidates. She doesn't and I don't think she's gonna
give it to him. She's on her way to decide it will. Exciting we
couldn't help her any more than we have. Just a free ride so far
from the media. We're the biggest ones promoting our
campaigns. Yeah,
good, good work.
The bias against Bernie Sanders was nearly as bad as we have
seen the emails, the tailing the DNC is efforts against him as
well. You guys are doing a great service to our country by
exposing this nonsense. And the fact that you are taking a
financial hit to do so. earns you even more of my respect.
Thank you. We need more people in the media who are that's why
I was probably irked when he brought this up because it
bothers me man. We need more people in media who are
earnestly seeking the truth. I have found both of you to be
among the most objective voices thank you for your courage PS

Laughter is important while having to watch this horribly
misguided reality show of politics. Your show helps state

To use skipped one you just skip Susan Johnson. Oh, I'm sorry.
You're

Jabra that fills the media. Keep up the great work and the best

ever did.
Hmm. Well,
now this is
I don't know. I'm gonna have to look for that.
I have no idea where that is. What else? What else does she
wants? Just a karma?
No, no. She wanted to get one nation now. Oh,

And let's find out the trick here on this on this spreadsheet
program. Do you guys need longer I'm not going to read this whole
note but again, you have to read this part because this
is the for the porn site as
your porn study. It's not just the boys it says Mr. Tech II
from Parts Unknown, who are initiating rough sex I'm a 40
year old male have been getting with women between 24 and 36.
Sounds good. Girls. This, the girls in their 20s are asking me
to be as rough as possible. choke them pull the hair smack

I can't continue with it. samples for the love of grace
I've been pulled into an alley while walking between a bar and
an ice cream shop yes ice cream because she wanted me to bend
her over behind a dumpster oh man, not urban but a rich suburb
called Grosse Pointe, Michigan. Gross point for a good reason.
Recently, a young lady during copulation spoke in my ear
during Marvel's Jessica Jones when she said you can't break
me. Notice how more and more stations are showing rough
dominating sex starting with cable networks and I'm and I've
gone to net network any woman younger? Anyways, confusing. Any
woman younger than 36 I've been with insists on looking back
over her shoulder while I'm behind her looking up at me
while she's performing oral sex as she's on camera with some
phony sex look. kisser a
wink. Kind of creepy. Yeah. Okay.
For me, I'd rather get them off. Okay. Yeah, I'd rather get them

shot.
for.org/and
A even if you just came in in the second segment, you can
still be out there Crockett in the formula. Our
formula is this. We go out. We get people in the mouth shut up.
Have a little clippy here. I should have teased it would have
been good. We heard Dr. Drew Dr. Drew Pinsky on Donald Trump.
Following along perfectly with the Goldwater rule. Did you do
any further research on the Goldwater rule?
No, I was watching the Olympics, which means you
viewed as a professional medical doctor or psychologist. You
never want to diagnose a political
candidate with anything because you can get sued and
sued. Yes. Now Dr. Dre was on a radio show, which I got a clip
from. It's talking about Hillary Clinton's health. So of course,
if we're going to buy into what he said about Trump, we should
probably buy into what he says about Hillary. Interesting,
though, that this is not on CNN. He has not been asked by Don
Lemon to come on CNN and talk about Hillary Clinton's health.
No, he has been coming out. He's been asked to come on to talk
about Donald Trump's mental health. And I found this clip to
be just astounding.
I just called a friend of mine, Dr. Robert Ising. It was an
excellent internist pulmonologist and we just
dispassionately sat and evaluated the medical record
that she had released. And based on the information that she is
providing her doctors have provided, we were gravely
concerned not just about our health care, not about her
health and her health care. Why? Well, it's hard for people to
understand if both of us concluded that if we were
providing the care that she was receiving, we'd be ashamed to
show up in a doctor's lounge, it'd be laughed out it's she's
receiving sort of 1950 level sort of care by our valuation.
So we took a look at her record. And here's the basic facts. She
had two episodes of what's called Deep venous throw On
Boses common problem, blood clots in the legs. She also has
hypothyroidism and she'd been treated for hypothyroidism with
something called arm or thyroid, which is very unconventional.
That's strange because some of my relationships have included
women with hypothyroidism. And armour. Thyroid is not I mean,
that's a very,
I think very often prescribed. So I don't know where he's
coming from with this. That's crazy crazy to do something like
that. But I'm not the doctor
Armour Thyroid, which is very unconventional and something
that we used to use back in the 60s. And both he and I went,
that's weird. And by the way, wow. Armour Thyroid sometimes
has some weird side effects. Oh, well, okay, so she goes on
Coumadin. That's weird. Because Coumadin really isn't even used
anymore. Now we use Eliquis or Serato, things like that.
Certainly, somebody, the presidential candidate would get
one of the newer anticoagulants, then she falls hits her head.
And as a complication of that has something called a
transverse sinus thrombosis. This is an exceedingly rare
clot. I've only seen one of these in my career, which is a
clot in the collecting system for the cerebral spinal fluid.
And it essentially guarantees that somebody has something
wrong with their coagulation system. Well, she's had two
clots of transverse sinus thrombosis. What's wrong with
her coagulation system? Has that been evaluated? And oh, by the
way, are more thyroid associated rarely with hypercoagulability,
to the very medicine that doctors are using, may be
causing this problem. And they're using an old fashioned
medicine to treat it. What is going on with her healthcare?
It's bizarre, I gotta say it, look, maybe they have reasons.
But at a distance, it looks bizarre, that there ought to be
some sort of standard for people that are going to leave the
country are going to be making these important decisions. This
again, Hillary may be fine with all of this. I mean, it's, it's
dangerous, and it's concerning. But you can see and by the way,
when she turned to other things that gravely concerned us, when
she hit her head, she had to wear these prism glasses when
she came, that is brain damage, and so that it's affecting her
balance. Now, clearly, it hasn't affected her cognition. But tell
us a little more about that. That's profound. And then number
two, when they screen her for heart disease, again, they did
an old fashioned screen. It just seems like she's getting care
from somebody that she met in Arkansas when she was a kid. And
I just got to wonder, gotta wonder if that's the case,
though, might not so much that her health is is a grave
concern. Is that the care she's good and couldn't make it a
concern?
No. And there's a great, that's Clip of the Day. Thank
you. I felt it was up there a couple of comments on this one,
the
first comment is we've never heard anything like this. And
why doesn't Don Lemon have this on his show? That guy's a
douche?
Yeah. And even if it was on Don Lemon show who would care
who would hear it? Well, there's that.
So a couple things about this. First of all, there was no when
he says, you know, this sounds like a really old person, but
she knew from Arkansas, it is very possible. This is a doctor
who doesn't really practice anymore, therefore doesn't know
about the newer drugs, and just wrote a scenario and wrote a
prescription to go along with it. And here is your health
report. That's possible.
I didn't make nothing but sense.
I got a note from producer Dustin Jones. I'm sorry. Go
ahead.
I was gonna say there's still an element in here that needs to be
discussed.
Well, hold on.
The note from producer Dustin Joe, Dustin Jones, was listening
with my wife in the room. And the part where a doctor drew
says Coumadin isn't really used anymore. She perks up and says
that's bullshit. My wife has lupus and is on Coumadin. And
it's for a very specific medical reason related to the lupus. My
wife explained to me why but I forgot. And it's really
irrelevant. She's a good one. She says she can't take Eliquis
or Xarelto. Because of this specific reason. Also, according
to her, both Eliquis ends or alto have issues when you need
to stop the bleeding, like if you're on it, and you get a gash
or something. And there's number of lawsuits related to it.
Finally, Eliquis and Xarelto are from what I can tell still under
patent Coumadin is not that would make sense in Dr. Drew's
world where he's like, Oh, come on you. We can't be selling that
stuff. We got to sell the stuff that we still make good money
on. Right? So I think that that is probably something that has
to do with that.
I kind of agree with that.
What is otherwise undiscussed well, he
says the only time he's ever seen this one crazy thing, this
crazy clot, that that made her when she's supposed to hit her
head, it should never get it was very, he was very taken aback by
what the results were where she had this bleeding here and it
didn't make any sense to him. He says, You only seen this once in
his entire career. This is accounted for by the plane
crash, which nobody wants to talk about.
Well,
you know, a lot of people are saying that, you know, oh,
you're full of crap. Have we looked To the wiki leaks, and
the only thing was in there was a report about the conspiracy
theory.
If you read those memos carefully, of course I did. No
one i you Oh, okay, why that's making this.
There's a number of people, please explain why they need to
be read
carefully.
Because if you read the back and forth, you can tell that
something was something was up it was discussed. Yeah, it was
discussed as a conspiracy theory. But it seems to me that
all they were doing in those memos, there's two or three
people going back and forth on this was confirming everything.
Yeah, people that you know, they really are poor reading. And
even if that wasn't in there, I mean, these are discussion
worthy topics. I mean, it's in the WikiLeaks emails.
Yeah. Can somebody just bring it up? Now? Here's a question for
you who are Oh, it's just a good very good here's the question.
Why doesn't somebody bring this up? At a press conference? Oh,
wait a minute. Hillary's hasn't held a press conference for like
a year so she's not going to talk about but somebody else
could they could ask someone else
yeah. And that is the
only thing that makes sense with all these crazy diagnosis and
the fact that she had brain damage. Yeah, which is the funny
thing in that Linda which got you the tip of the day is what
this mean she had brain damage Yeah.
Right there you said it right. That's brain damage.
Yeah. Brain damage. You don't get brain damage from tripping
in the in the bathroom necessarily. I mean, you could
but she was on cat Yeah. Anyway, well read it read the documents
yourself.
While while we're on drugs for a moment. And I mean, that
literally, we yeah, we finally got a report, a study and we
just see who have the PLOS was it pillows, and the actual
document here on a second. This is yes, it was published report.
Prescription drugs associated with reports of violence toward
others.
And here we go. The study
more on his collaborators extracted all Series events
reported from the FDA database from 2004 through September
2009, and identified 484 drugs that had triggered and we're
talking about SSRIs. Here we're talking about everything from
Chantix to Adderall to Oxy I guess. No, not oxy was an SSRI
can be good ones. Serotonin. Yeah. The effects are all this
stuff. Most of it. Yeah.
Let's see, I triggered at least 200 case reports of serious
adverse events of any type during that 69 month period.
They then investigate to see if any of these 484 drugs had a
disproportionate association with violence. They identified
31 such drugs out of the 484 that met this criteria. The 31
Suspect drugs accounted for 15 127 of the 19 137 case
reports of violence towards others in the FDA database for
that 69 month period. The drugs in that list of 31 included
Verona, Verona, Slean varenicline, which is the key
ingredient in Chantix smoking cessation, 11 antidepressant,
six hypnotics sedatives and Three Dog drugs for attention
deficit hyperactivity disorder. Antidepressants were responsible
for 572 case reports of violence towards others with three ADHD
drugs for 108 and the hypnotic or sedatives for 97.
This is a pretty damning report. I'd say it's probably just the
tip of the iceberg. Yeah. And that will go nowhere.
But it's just for your own edification
is gonna go nowhere because the drug companies scared which by
factoring pointed out in the last newsletter, yeah, you can't
the drug companies and by the way, I when I said the that
comment I was making about people always say this to the
Oh, Fox News. Oh, Fox News that there's a dying audience is a
bunch of old farts all the dead network news node kids listen to
it. It's a dying audiences. They all going to be out of business
in no time. I said in the newsletter, and I don't I've
never said on the show. But they want this old audience. Yeah.
Because selling to these drug companies, which is all you see,
I make a listen to one of these days of all the drug ads on all
of these networks, all these network news shows. They're 92nd
ads, they're easy to sell. They're expensive. And there's
lots of them. And this is perfect for this. They say you
do the kind of marketing you tend to do in broadcasting media
of any sort, is you you accumulate a group of people as
a product and sell it to the advertiser. That's what you do.
That's what we do the opposite. So that's what the network news
stations are doing.
And they really have a nice band of people because you're looking
at 40 Plus, I'd say is where You know, you start getting put on
beta blockers and all this stuff you probably don't even need me
you know, there's just more people coming into their band
all the time. Me of course they're gonna sell cars I was
gonna put some cars on during Chevy truck month for truck man,
they're gonna always gonna put Coca Cola on there because
everyone will drink that and beer.
Actually, there's very little Coca Cola or beer on the network
news shows really very little. I don't know that I've ever seen a
coke ad. What you do get car ads, but they tend to be high
end like Lexus on there. Lots of BMW and Audi ads. You get the
drive, drive, drive, drive drive drug. And that's where the
money is. Go look at the money. Lipitor alone, it's $6 billion
in the United States
do not want to just one of the things I learned at PC Magazine
when I was being lectured about how to do special interest
publications. One of the things you'd run into is that people
would say, oh, you know, your magazine is great, but it's too
high and you shouldn't have some stuff in there for beginners.
Yeah, and it was laughable and everyone's well you bring some
new person in in the Edit staff and they think this way too, and
they have to be like they almost get fired for thinking this way.
Because what you're doing is you're watering down the core
group that you're selling to the advertiser you want people that
we used to call brand specifiers the guys who do all the know it
alls, the guys who'd read PC Magazine for the you know just
so they could compete with oh they use they use an ampersand
when they shouldn't use the carrot that code is wrong. Is
the guy you want
double spaced versus tab I'm telling you so you so the
network
news guys are not going to appeal to kids or middle aged
yours or anybody else because they have they've packaged a
beautiful group of people to sell to advertisers and
and that's why it's that's why the news offering is so pathetic
as well.
Yeah, that's what you say Right? Because he's Yeah, this is
truth. They want to
hear that I want to hear about what's going on in Europe.
No, no,
they don't care if I
forgot the one to thanks Sir John the brewer the Seminole Yes
John the brewer. Did you get anything from Sir John? No, I
haven't gotten anything yeah he sent me in about complaining
about something else so he sent
me a six bottles of beer Yeah. And he and so one of them did
did not make the journey but he had done it well this is in
contrast to the previous shipment I received a but each
individual bottle in a airtight baggie and then had a lot of
newspaper in the box as well to protect but also just so to soak
it up Yeah, and so one one top I guess it would just wasn't
because it's all homemade. It's all Home Brewed stuff. Oh yeah.
Was little loosened so there was nothing left with there's also
no evidence of the of the beer except in the in the news. Oh,
this is the way he's just the way to do it. Yeah. So you can
send me with a formula that works. He sent me some Larry
Browns Mississippi Blues Trail ales and really good stuff. I
drank to him last night.
And you know what that does with me beer while on the job. Yeah.
And we
can finally say bah blah by
that's a bad I was bad. I was thinking of using a joke like
that. And one of the on the Twitter but I decided it was
tasty. I did it
on Twitter. And no one called me out on it. Now,
I don't you know, it's possible. We did a whole Expo Zahn
talking about John John was on the clock and John McLaughlin at
the Mughlai. We had him part of his producers
used to be a show listener. I never heard from him since but
they broke down to show how it was rehearsed and how it was
scripted and how it worked and who was on there. And they put
down different people. You gave us a lot of insight dirt who was
great. And it just shows you know, was it I don't know that
anybody really watched it. It was just a it be it buffaloed
the public broadcasting folks into making himself bigger than
he was?
Yeah. Oh, yeah. But yeah, he was he was a staple. You know, he's
an icon. And I'll miss him by by I miss him. I'll miss him.
Well, I was actually going to do a piece on him about about a
month ago, or maybe even less, because I have clips of him. He
sounds like he was dead already. Last couple of months. He was
seeing the show knows he can sit up he's like the pope when he
knew the Polish Pope in his head. He couldn't lift his head
anymore. So his head was on the side all the time. That was fun.
It was it was it was well know how funny it was. But that's
what it was. And this was McLaughlin he lost all his
weight. So as His clothes are very were falling off him. He
was on his way out. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah. Well,
I'll miss him. I like I like watching I didn't I did not
watch regularly but and of course Alan are on the show.
Yeah, what you're going to do now while she says Huffington
Post, no, I thought she said the beast knows. Hey, is
it October 7? I'll be in New York for it's called the New
York audio Summit. And this is that university thing that
didn't happen last year. If you recall, I was going to go and be
on a panel with the with the CEO of NPR. Oh, yeah. So I think
that's happening now at this event. And so Tina is going to
come at it, we'll probably do a meet up. I think we're in good.
We're gonna see we can get out Thursday after the show and
return on Monday. So we can we can do a meet up in New York,
do a meet up at the sparks bar, which does make that our meetup
place
sparks and it's kind of interesting hanging out because
of course, this will be about the future radio and occlude
people from Sirius XM Satellite Radio include the NPR Of course,
and I will be representing the podcasters of the universe,
specifically, but
the best, you probably could represent the podcasters. Best
of all, I
have some standing. What is what is interesting that comes right
along and this is I cannot believe I'm gonna have to have a
chat with Yarrow, Yarrow Mon, better known as lemasters. NPR
is shutting down comments on all its websites.
Talk about a mistake.
Well, it is a mistake, but I can see them why they do it I've
looked at it's it's rough out there. It was so white.
But that means people are coming to your damn site. Why would
you? Oh, oh, don't
comment. What?
I'm sorry. That makes no sense. Okay, so people are
calling each other's comments are most of the entertainment
value? Yes, that
Thank you. Thank you. I mean, yeah,
I read comments. Occasionally, when I'm doing a breakdown of
something, or a deconstruction of some specific thing that
happens to be, you can catch it on the internet. I'll look at
the comments. Because within the comments, usually if there's
like hundreds of comments, I don't like it when there's
1000s, because then you can't get through it. But if there's
like maybe 50 to 100 comments, usually within the comments, and
budding writers should notice this. There's material in there.
Yeah, that is usable.
Yeah, jokes, all kinds of stuff.
There's Joe, punch lines, there's, and there's also the
observations to some expert who has to go online and blurt it
out. He goes, I used to work at the NSA. And that's not the way
they do things. They have a code three before they do a code for
not a code three for their dual code to you got it backwards.
Exactly. There's lots of experts in there as the real sources.
And so we've we've certainly tried to do that here. By the
way, the chat room is not the same. While it's sure you can
throw in a joke or whatever, but the chat room is supposed to be
an integrated part of the production. You are giving the
information in real time. When you put crap in there, you're
the signal to noise ratios, mistakes,
correcting mistakes, and it's great. That's great. It's a
major, major thing for podcasters. Who, you know, we
make mistakes as we get yak away. We're this show is is done
without
rehearsals.
Unlike Chris Cuomo,
yes, it was screw scroll Mo.
So So while that's happening here in the Gitmo nation east,
the United States states of the United States of Kingdom of
Great Britain, the Metropolitan Police are now they have got a
special team team of specialist police officers is being set up
to investigate online hate crimes, including abuse on
Twitter and Facebook.
Now this thing is funded. It's a pilot
project $2 million. They already got a quarter of it from the
London's Mayor's office. And the spokesman said there would be no
No Place for Hate
in London, and there would be a lot
of online abuse.
The team which will be set up in the coming months will identify
the location of crimes and allocate them to the appropriate
force. Just from the BBC. They will work with a team of
volunteers now that just fell apart. They're just out to get
Katie Hopkins, the Mayor's Office for policing and crime
known as Mopac, which is something very different here in
Austin said social media provides hate crime perpetrators
with a veil of anonymity, making it harder to bring them to
justice and potentially impacting a larger number of
people. Victims can become isolated living in fear of the
online behavior materializing in the real world. Community groups
in London have told us that online hate crime is an issue of
increasing concern to them and one for which the police
response has in the past been inconsistent. Ladies and
gentlemen of Britain, are you going to accept this? Are you
going to take this, that speech is going to be punishable? It
already is. But if you say hey, you suck.
Your old guy. That
would be a hate crime because it's similar ages, ages and
ages. Yeah. So I don't think they'll be looking for that
specifically. But come on, who's standing up and saying No, this
is very dangerous. You can't do this stuff.
Okay, I heard crickets nobody, no
one standing up standing up. I have one last thing for you
catching up on the protocol for the national anthem if you are
not in uniform? Yes. Should you hold your hand over your heart
or not?
Well, turns out there's a law. Ah, law
US Code. That's right. 36. US Code section 301. National
Anthem.
This is the law people. designation.
The composition consisting of the words and music known as the
Star Spangled Banner is the national anthem conduct during
playing of the national anthem during a rendition of the
national anthem, one alone.
When the flagging this wasn't in the union, I want to just make
this is from
Cornell Cornell's Law Library. Okay. Yeah, this is this is fact
and truth. When the flag is displayed, individuals in
uniform should give the military salute at the first note of the
anthem and maintain that position until the last note,
which as you know, is a really long one. Here be
members of the armed forces and veterans who are present but not
in uniform may render the military salute in the manner
provided for individuals in uniform and all other persons
present, should face the flag stand at attention with their
right hand over the heart. And men not in uniform, if
applicable, should remove their head dress with their right hand
and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over
the heart. And when the flag is not displayed, all presidents
should face toward the music and act in the same manner they
would if the flag were displayed,
okay. Now, we know well, you don't want to be in violation
that you don't want to be in violation.
You don't want to be in violation. You want to be a rule
follower. So what is the punishment? And enforcement? six
sections of this bill? What was the punishment? And what how do
they enforce it? I don't
think there is this punishment section. Should there be?
Well, I mean, what if you don't do it? What are they going to do
to you? They're gonna hit you in the head punch in the gut.
What's the deal? I mean, if jail is
that we have to do it, and then I'll do it. Follow the rule. Let
me say notes. was a lot of agenda.
Publication, I generally do not see people putting their hand
over their hearts. I think that's probably the majority
opinion.
A lot of people doing it. Yeah.
It is. You know, it's title 36 Subtitle one part a chapter
three. That does not
I didn't know that veterans are supposed to salute. Yeah.
Yeah, I don't see any I'm looking around here.
Maybe if you're not a veteran at salute, is there a provision for
that? Though,
there's no provision. Now there's SERVICE FLAG. Oh, this
is interesting. Service flag and service lapel button.
I have a flag. Do
you have a flag lapel button? Yeah, I
love the little flag pin. Yeah, I SERVICE FLAG approve. Oh, wait
country, you're from individuals entitled to display the service
flag. I'm not really entitled I guess. A SERVICE FLAG approved
by the Secretary of Defense made Oh has to be approved. Like
like a rabbi has to bless it. It's kosher, or maybe halal,
like a halal flag. Man, okay. I didn't know
why he didn't finish. We don't know what you're talking about.
Oh, okay. SERVICE FLAG approved by the Secretary fence may be
displayed in a window of the place of residence of
individuals who have never been a flag. You're talking about a
lapel pin in the window. I'm sorry. Here's the lapel button.
A service lapel button approved by the Secretary may be worn by
members of the immediate family of an individual serving in the
armed forces of the United States during any period of war
or hostilities in which the Armed Forces of the United
States are engaged.
What about Donald Trump wearing one while he may be approved
check
this out. Any person may apply to the Secretary of Defense for
a license to manufacture and sell the approved flag SERVICE
FLAG or the approved service lapel button or both. Any person
that manufactures a service flag or service lapel button without
for having first obtained a license or otherwise violates
this section is liable to the United States Government for
civil penalty penalty of not more than $1,000
So if you're in China illegally making these flags and you
import them, you could be fined for 1000 bucks. I don't think
they have never heard this enforced. Yeah, I think there's
a lot of lacks laws here tonight. Unfortunately, they're
just asking for trouble scofflaws yeah they're
encouraging
their incur I'm just reporting there this
is the this is an interesting segment.
Just forget to throw a couple things out at you. You know,
like I do some fun. I don't want you play me a clip.
All right, let's go let's go on with how come this isn't being
I'm just going to ask you that maybe you don't need to play the
clip. But why is Clintons perjury case which is apparently
going forward? Not being talked about
at all is perjury in for the house.
Yeah, she she perjured herself in the Yeah. When she gave
testimony to the House of Representatives because
the media is doing is up there cheerleading. We've heard Cuomo
say it, they're doing all they can
that's why let me hear the this is the clip.
It's just a little different party so they're giving us the
needle
well fuel has been thrown on the flames surrounding the Hillary
Clinton email scandal. A Democratic presidential nominee
may not have been 100% honest with her testimony before
Congress. Artis Caleb Maupin reports.
A letter signed by to house committee chairman in the US
Congress claims that Hillary Clinton lied under oath when she
testified before Congress last October about the scandal
involving her emails. The letter says that on four different
occasions, Hillary Clinton may have committed the crime known
as perjury. Now perjury is a very serious crime in the United
States illegal at both state and federal levels. And if
convicted, she could end up behind bars. Now the first
instance in which Hillary Clinton could have committed
perjury was when she testified that she had not forwarded any
classified emails to her personal server.
There was nothing marked classified on my emails either
sent or received
or cleansed. She never sent or received any classified
information over her private email. Was that true? Our
investigation found that there was classified information so it
was not true.
Perjury is also on the table when Hillary Clinton says that
her lawyers saw all of her personal emails. Did someone
physically look at the 62,000 emails? Or did you use search
terms date parameters? I want to know the specifics.
They did all of that they also went through every single email
lawyers during
the sorting for Secretary Clinton in 2014 did not
individually read the content of all of her emails. Case
number three is when Clinton said she only used one device
there was one server on your property in New York and a
second server hosted by a Colorado company in house in New
Jersey. Is that right? There? Were two servers
No, there was a there was a server just one was already
being used by my husband's team so
to Clinton said you use just one device was that true?
She use multiple devices during the four years of her
history what at this point does it make whatever's at this point
that's it makes it the way the media sees it. Now the funniest
story that I picked up this week, if you're looking for
clips, and I'll like put this near the end of the show,
I got I got I got some stuff I was just I was bored of talking
I want to hear your clips.
Well then let's play this clip. Now we were talking the theme of
this show is me emails leaking, they leak here they leak there
and we I mentioned the newsletter that we've talked
about the dangers of email and how easy they are to hack and
and I would like to point out that you can send encrypted
email to me and I encourage everyone to look into a GPG
tools is fantastic it integrates right with your email program so
it's not a lot of hassle and I encourage everyone to use this
for just why not you know if it's if it's when like in on the
Mac if I send an email to mark avoid zero it automatically
encrypts because it knows that I want to send send him encrypted
messages and when he you know my reply to him I don't have to
click anything so it's it's seamless at this point. It does
not integrate well with squirrel mail though John fish
now this is in hacked emails that took place in Germany this
has not been reported at all because I think it's because
it's too funny. They American American media and get it this
is a very funny story if if you have Canada yeah to have kind of
a sixth sense of humor but it's the guys doing some working for
the government doing some housing for for refugees
apparently have zero respect for the refugees to the point where
they're making snide remarks and it's the last contract after
this you know about this story?
I haven't No, I haven't heard this part now. Yeah, this is
you're gonna enjoy this.
This is the hilarious email clip.
The German government has terminated the contract of a
firm that found accommodation for migrants after an offensive
email exchange between staff members was leaked to the
national press. The emails make jokes about refugees, which
neither the authorities nor the public found funny. Emily suit
reports from Berlin.
Imagine if you're running a company and received a 5000 Euro
donation, what would you do? Well, it's only logical to
discuss with your employees what to do with the money and how to
put it into good use. Before this one private refugee housing
management firm in Germany, when one employee suggested building
a sandpit for the children in the homes, the black humor in
this supposedly normal and professional conversations in
place spiraled out of control, while the director of one
refugee home, going by the name of Peggy M. She replied to that
proposal of the sandpit, saying that it will very quickly become
a big ashtray or a local toilet. She then suggests that the
companies have built a small child guilty, they respond to
seeing that it's a good suggestion, and then began
forwarding pictures of guillotines and beheaded people,
Peggy and then responded to these photos complaining about
the mess that these beheadings will make. And this triggered
her managing director presumably her boss, saying that nobody
will want to clean up the mess and said that it's a better job
for quote the maximally pigmented with an apparent
reference to skin color. And this sort of very offensive back
and forth continued until in the end, someone even suggested to
build large volume crematorium to dispose of bodies. The
offensive emails, of course triggered a very strong reaction
from the German government for the German Social Affairs
Minister describing the email exchange as unspeakable and
cannot be explained or excused in any way.
The firm's lawyer tried to play down the exchange saying that
auto correct was responsible for the word guillotine.
Well, I borderline
Germans be Germans.
That is fantastic. Hey, we need some ovens over here.
That's got a couple of boots on the ground in in Germany right
now. And people are getting pissed. At Angola. They are not
happy at all. What is it going
to take? To get the men in have to vote her out? They can't do
it. It's like they did all their work. But
no, there's an election coming. There's an election coming. So
she's going to be in trouble saying in Germany for a moment
there none too happy with the slowness of Britain, invoking
Article 50. In order to complete their Brexit Germany
has urged London not to delay Brexit. Following a flurry of
British media reports which suggested Prime Minister Theresa
May might postpone the formal procedure to leave the EU. The
start of January is widely touted as the most likely date
to trigger Article 50. But so far in Downing Street has only
said it will not be invoked this year. Germany's European affairs
minister said the end of the year should really be sufficient
time to get organized and adjust to the new situation. It does
not need any additional political pressure. I'm
convinced that the economic pressure from Great Britain
itself is strong enough because it's in the interests of Britons
and especially the British economy to provide more clarity
on how Great Britain will continue outside the EU. Under
the Lisbon Treaty, article 50 must be enacted before the
formal two year negotiations on Britain's departure from the EU
can begin. Despite mounting political pressure on Theresa
May from Berlin and other European capitals to stick to a
quick timetable. There are growing concerns she may be
forced to delay because Britain's new Brexit and
international trade departments will not be ready. That could
mean the UK remaining inside the EU until at least 2019.
Hmm, that doesn't sound right.
Don't give a crap about your damn little referendum. They
don't care don't care one bit. You know the do over. You know
that cleric was always on BBC and Sky News in the UK.
On Jim Choudry Oh, yeah. Choudry Yeah, yeah,
he's in trouble.
Britain's most high profile hate preacher Anjem Choudary has been
found guilty of supporting the so called Islamic State group.
The radical Islamist cleric was convicted alongside associate
Muhammad MIZANUR Rahman of using online lectures and messages to
inspire support for the militant organization. Both face 10 years
in jail at their sentencing June September, dumped the most hated
man in Britain for his rhetoric. Choudhry gained notoriety for
praising the men behind the 911 attacks. He was once the head of
Al muhajir own, which has been linked to dozens of terrorist
suspects. Michael Adebola show one of the men who killed
British soldier Lee Rigby had attended protests organized by
Choudhury
good guys finally going to be gone. Get him out of the way and
painted the ash Bay. Hey, got a note from Sir herb. A service
flag is not what we think it is. A service flag is it's a
rectangular flag oriented vertically red border white
background blue star in the middle, that's where the service
flag
is. And that star in the middle Yeah,
if you if you search for service flag, you'll see it as a special
flag indicates a family members currently serving during war or
hostilities. It was not an American flag. It's it's a flag
that just has a blue star in the middle.
I see this at all
information that you dug up it's got nothing to do with anything.
Do we salute that? I mean what do you
know that has nothing to know that's nothing new still salute
the that is the American flag. We were just looking at other
stuff we were looking at. I remember I was looking for
peanut penalty, and I came up with the service flag thing and
it was two separate. Were you listening?
Yeah, I was.
Yeah, you salute. Exactly. Okay. Well, here's one. Let's play
Biden in Serbia. Okay, Biden
in Serbia.
Thanks for joining us. The US Vice President has offered his
condolences to the relatives of Serbs killed in NATO's 1999
bombing campaign. Joe Biden made his remarks during a visit to
Serbia and is the first senior US official to make such a
statement. In Belgrade, he got a warm reception from the
country's Prime Minister, though others were less welcoming.
During his brief visit, hundreds of nationalist protesters took
to the streets calling on America to vote for Donald
Trump, the US Republican presidential nominee Biden is of
course a Democrat. And his previous remarks about Serbia
might explain the protesters attitudes
they play and here's what they do they play this is again our
tea putting a bunch of stuff up on the screen and not reading it
right which is just I can't use it. It's no good in the clip I
do guy can tell you some of the stuff he said that they were
throwing back in his face and saying that everyone should vote
for Trump. None of this is covered at all by the our media,
okay, because who cares? Here's the did one guy paw Polachek I
think is talking about some of the stuff he said Larry King
Live. Biden came on and he said Serbs are illiterate
degenerates. baby killers. And rapists. Oh, when they have
trumpet said this. No. This is Biden on Larry King Live during
the Serbian and when we started with no night in like 9596.
Yeah, 99 I think is when he said We blew up a bunch of Muslims.
Yes, Serbs are illiterate degenerates, baby killers,
butchers and rapists.
And that is exactly the words that Madeleine Albright uses I
might add.
Yeah, his assertions during the senatorial deliberations in 99
over NATO aggression against Serbia. He said all Serbs should
be placed in Nazi style concentration camps. And then he
said some other stuff like that. And now they're, you know, you
can call it this guy's a racist pig.
Yeah, that's pretty bad. We should get clips of that.
I would love to.
I'm sure it's a round.
I'm sure it is, too. I mean, Biden is always shooting his
mouth off and just, you know, condemning everybody else doing
the same thing. Yeah. But
you see that he was he was talking about Donald Trump can't
have this secret codes,
the nuclear codes and he points
out, he said, Hey, that guy over there. He's holding the codes
right now. Should something happen to the President? Why is
his point to appoint the guy out with the codes in the room?
Well, anyway, go on to clip two for Biden. And this is the final
one about this final aspect of the story, which is what's
really going on here?
Well off to Belgrade Biden's next stop is Kosovo, which
proclaimed independence from Serbia following the NATO
bombardment. There an entire motorway has been renamed after
Biden visit as a display of gratitude for America's role in
the 1999 campaign. The whole aim of the Vice President's trip is
to attempt to mend relations between the two sides. Serbia
being one of those states that does not recognize Kosovo's
independence. Foreign Affairs expert soldier trif KOVITCH
thinks that Kosovo status has been used to put pressure on
Belgrade. About that,
yeah, about the highway. Highway.
That's fantastic. I love it. Oops, hold on a second.
I'm going to show my school by donate to no agenda Imagine all
the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun

great opportunity to catch up on elements of the show I had
previously missed so it did work. I stumbled upon the best

they can look it up. Derek Vonderhaar only if you're a ham.
You don't have to be a ham to hit that database.
You have to have a ham called the register to be able to see
the address, I believe unless you go to the FCC database there
you can find it.
That's not that easy, though.
Yeah, well, that's why I recommend people use a post
office box. You know, you don't have to update it either.
Yeah, and for all your cue ESL cards, John,
you know, I was gonna design you a que es el card that you'd
actually
do that. For me. That would be for my birthday. September 3 is

has their own version of what it is. I'd love one made by you.
I'd love

and that concludes our group of well wishers and producers for
show whatever the show number is, you
know, what I what happened somewhere when we started the
donation segment, it's something that you got, like a little
thrown off
what happened? Nothing.
Okay. It's just my just my perception. I
said earlier in the show of my resort good today. Oh, that's
okay. I
didn't hear that. I did want to mention that miles. Comer in his
notes said to avoid zero and mountain vortex would have
separate donors only RSS feed with faster don't downloads
help. And I don't want to say any of this, of course comes up
from time to time No, we're not going to do that. It makes it
also makes no sense because then you'd have to have separate
infrastructure to the activity in a database. So it's going
through the same pipe and no, yes, no, no, this is the whole
point, the only way we can actually keep this show going,
of course, through your financial support is by keeping
everything open. You got to keep it all open. If you go to that
if you start adding work, you know, like, we can't have
producers and we're, we're blessed with these guys with
Void mountain, because they're doing it for free. You know,
they could be doing other things with their time.
Yeah, we're actually the two of the best in the world. So that
makes it very nice for the show. Yeah. And they know how to save
money and they don't, you know, stretch it. Yeah. Well, they're
trying to come in whenever they actually need it.
Exactly. Well, thank you all very much. Thanks to everyone
under $50. For reasons of anonymity usually, this is, this
is how it works value for value. People are liking the shows
we're doing and it shows. We appreciate that and remember, we
have another show coming up on sunday.org/and
A. jobs jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. That's
it here we go. We got a belated birthday. Oh, actually, this was
on the list. Nicholas Samira says Happy Birthday to serve
bill have the rock to celebrate and August 14. We have Susan
Johnson says Happy Birthday to her son Evan Johnson turned 26

that was indeed quite a list. Quite record
breaker. It was the record breaker.
Now I think we had a late entry coming from Pete from Brisbane
who donated 12345 And he says whilst drinking a bold
Australian Red with Bodhi it reminded me of the two of you
and prompted me to donate that sounds right karma to you both
shout out to snorkel and I'm pretty sure I'm close to being a
knight and Eric checked it in Indeed he is so we need first we
need the blades
Hold on Hold on. Okay, I got it lifted over the other place.
So Pete from Brisbane step on Jeffrey Wolfers, please join us
here at the podium and Raleigh Hawk all three of you have
donated to the best podcast in the university amount of $1,000
or more and they're five therefore I'm very proud to
pronounce the K the Knights of the no agenda roundtable. Here
you go. Pete from Brisbane Sir Geoffrey of Camden and Sir
Lindemann? Not the next. No sir lineman of the nets. A you're a
black knight. Did he go Rollie hog? Gentlemen for you. We have
the usual hookers and blow rent boys and Chardonnay, mangoes and
filet mignon cookies and Baka tacos and tequila met sleds and
moonshine Legos and leg warmers, garlic and broccoli DMT and
astral travel Bach and vanilla breast milk and Pamela mutton
and me ginger ale and thermals and sparkling cider and escorts
if you have any need for that. Then just join the roundtable
and you guys
Raleigh has got to be a black knight because he was sent in a
number of notes Yeah, that nobody answered. This happens by
the way to any could happen anyone this is like falling
through the cracks. Yeah. And it's actually kind of
interesting to witness it because when it happens it's
it's like a fall it doesn't fall through the crack. Well, once
No, I usually fall through over and over again. It's like a
nightmare to get this guy in front of the on the podium. But
he does does bring up a question which the peerage committee has
is Oh good. Oh,
good. What is the question?
He brings up the question? When are you a night? Is it when
you've requested it? When you're supposed to get it when the
numbers gets to 1000 when you are when you are knighted? And
the answer is when you are Night Of course of course. And so he
didn't he was concerned because he doesn't have seniority over
one of his pals. Oh no, right? Yes. He came in about the same
time and he was hoping to to Trump him he seniority but he
doesn't but he's got the Black Knight moniker which I think it
I think
that's special, I
think so. Got a package, battle package by package one package.
I've got a package.
I got my package already lined up and you my package, your
package my package. My package is Julian Assange I'm being
interviewed by NPR. And and this is it's like two different
worlds colliding. It really is. It's, it's so it's so odd to
hear the questions NPR asked over and over again. Because you
know, they're journalists over there. No. Okay, we're gonna so
I'll just go right into it with an assertion from this NPR host,
which, of course is incorrect every cyber
expert who's looked at this as has said, it's Russia. Are you
are you telling me that that information will not come to
you?
Start off with a hard question like that is no buddy nobody has
said this.
Luckily, Ms. Same names and luckily Mr. Assange well fire
I'd you know, the Clintons hired fire. I
don't want to hear but yeah, hire fire.
i This is a government organization shields anyone
Russia knows. Let me just
rewind it started over Sorry. It's worth hearing again.
Every cyber expert who's looked at this, as has said, is Russia.
Are you? Are you telling me that that information did not come to
you from Russia?
No cyber expert has said that our emails that we published
come from Russia, what they have said is that they have looked at
some of the hacking of the DNC over the last few years, and
said that the malware in that hacking appeared to be rational.
And that's that's a different question.
Thank you for setting us straight there, Mr. Assange.
Now, NPR, I'm sure like many other journalistic outlets are
probably wishing they had this huge scoop, kind of the way
WikiLeaks used to work with them. But that's not happening
anymore. So now we're going to ask all the aihole questions,
something that any good journalist or any publisher
would never reveal is
John, your source, right. But I guess you can keep asking for
it.
Do you know where these emails came from?
Yes, I know where they came from. They came from the DNC. So
you know, the source that provided them to you? We don't
comment on sourcing, because it makes it easier for any
investigation.
Okay, that was he asked us a total of five times in the
interview. What's the source? What's the source?
That was one? Yeah.
Now a good question which Assange answered appropriately.
Okay. So if you do indeed have or get in possession of stuff
about the Trump campaign, you would be just as ready to
release that, as you were that the DNC emails? Yes, of course,
if anyone has information that is from inside the Trump
campaign, which is authentic, it's not like some claimed
witness statement, but actually internal documentation. We'd be
very happy to receive it and publish it.
Wow. And NPR has a whole line. Amazed
by this like this same, the same line of questioning we've heard
before from other outlets, it says No, they've been handed a
sheet of paper they do. Exactly you and I blame the Russians.
Number one, asked for the sources. Number two, how can we
not going after Trump? We played a clip very soon. Yes, it
is. This is what other questions are asked what other questions?
Oh, you know, that guy he probably watched Bill Maher show
is prepped for the interview.
I think there's some more going on here. Well,
yeah. Is it paranoid to look at these uncensored documents,
these emails that that are released by you? And if they
believe that that could change the US presidential election
could be a threat to national security? Why isn't it logical
for them? To see you as a possible threat? Hold on, hold
on,
hold it right there. Okay, hold it right there. This is a great
journalistic scoop 20,000 emails from within the heart of the
DNC, which has led to the resignation of the top four
officials of the DNC, those resignations occurred because it
revealed an attempt to fix the primary process in favor of
Hillary
Clinton. So nice and refreshing to hear him reiterate that,
because that is no longer that wasn't the news from the minute
that happened. It was all the Russians. I mean, we just have
to step back once in a while and just say, you know, please
remember what happened before your very eyes. damning
information came out showing bigotry, bias and corruption
really a form of corruption inside a club, which is okay,
it's their club. That was rarely the topic and four people
resigned. How much news did we hear about it? Almost nothing.
It revealed
an attempt to fix the primary process in favor of Hillary
Clinton. That's a remarkable important contribution to us
democracy, by our sources, and by WikiLeaks. any allegation
that is a process that should be stopped, is deeply worrying. Of
course, let's be realistic. It's coming about because Hillary
Clinton is in a position where she is trying to gain support
and reduce criticism. And her supporters in the media and
elsewhere are trying to distract.
That's correct. And then the final
guy is a douche bag.
The interview talking about GEORGE Yeah,
I I'm gonna mention this again. I say it all the time. I'm gonna
say it again. You are given a treasure trove if you're
somebody looking to dig dirt on somebody, you've got a treasure
trove of information and wiki link moms and their moms
publishing months years in reality, considering the amount
of stuff they have. And what do you do you bitch about the
process? Oh, you guys are just you trying to? I mean, you go
after the guy instead of taking advantage.
Well, if it was a guy that would have been okay. See, what do you
mean go after you mean go after a song after
we after just saw quickie? Yeah.
They flip flop 280 degrees. They used to be best friends, all of
them. last clip regarding Seth Rich, the DNC employee who was
murdered to to the head to the back of it. And again, he's just
following what he do. He's following what Captain talking
point says.
Now of course, others suggest WikiLeaks has been making an
effort to distract to draw attention away from its alleged
sources in Russia. The Group announced it would offer a
$20,000 reward.
By the way, what he's reading here is done after the fact he
Assange is not hearing all of this. You can hear the audio
edit. And you know, because he's such a pussy probably wasn't the
Ord maybe had to edit pieces out because Assange does call them
out on what what he did here
sources in Russia, the group announced it would offer a
$20,000 reward for information about Seth Rich, a 27 year old
DNC staffer who was shot and killed last month in what police
suspect was a late night robbery gone bad. WikiLeaks offering
that reward sparked speculation that Rich was in some way
involved with the DNC emails. Some have seen that as the Edit
possibly a some kind of smokescreen, maybe an effort by
you to draw attention away from some relationship with your
actual sources in Russia. How do you respond to that?
It's false. His parents are grieving they have called for
information to police a call for information. We're trying to
contribute to that. We're not alleging that his murder is a
result of his allegations of him being a WikiLeaks source because
we don't have proof of that. Any allegation that someone has been
murdered because our WikiLeaks source even if it only has a
small probability of being true is very concerning to us. We
have a perfect record in protecting the identity of our
sources. And we want to establish quickly exactly what
the circumstances were offset. Rich's killing. Was he a source
of yours? We don't disclose.
You know, this guy. There's a couple things is a meme. That's
really besides this guy. Keep using Russia, Russia, Russia.
This guy drops this meme that really bothers me. And I'm just
kind of stunned that nobody ever picks it up and throws it away.
robbery gone bad. As a good one. Robbery What
goes well,
what Robert Gibbons let's ask the question, what makes a
robbery go bad when you die? No. I mean, why would a guy Rob This
is gonna
robbery gone bad. And he didn't take any money. I mean,
he didn't take any money didn't even get to his wallet. Did
nothing shot that guy dead. Yeah. And then disappears. And
that's they call this a robbery gone bad. What? What evidence?
Do they have this a robbery in the first place? And not just an
assassination? But what's the how's it what would make the
Okay, I'm the guy with the gun and you're the other guy and I
come up and shoot you twice in that back of the head. You
dropped it, you drop down. And now it's my opportunity to reach
in and grab your wallet and money and grab your watch and
then take off. I didn't do that. So. So it's a robbery. God. What
are you doing?
What are you doing with that dead body? What are you doing
citizen? This may be a robbery gone bad.
That's the only thing that you just did. Is the only thing that
would make this robbery go bad.
Right? Yeah, right. Right. Right. Right. Did you just send
somebody? I acknowledged you don't have to keep hounding me.
Right, right. So this guy shoots the guy, and then he just takes
off and it unless somebody interrupted him, which means
there was a witness.
Yeah. Where's the witness? Yeah,
that's what I what I like is the way Assange is, is explaining it
now, as he says, hey, look, we might we may or may not have
received the documents from that guy. In fact, that sounds more
like we got documents from someone else who maybe got it
from that guy. But anytime there is an allegation that someone
was a source for WikiLeaks, or helped us and they get killed.
We investigate. It makes total sense. Yeah. Although of course,
he was the source and we
all that's what we want to believe.
Well, that the other guy implies that this is a smokescreen. Why
would WikiLeaks even bother with a smokescreen? They've never
done that ever before.
That because they're not you know, I'm not all in on the
Russian thing that's the problem. Now it's at these the
these people believe it was Russia. They believe this John
this is this is not open for
debate. They believe it was Russia.
Yeah, I see it on the face bags people believe is Russia. Yeah.
So you know that that was the message they received. Oh,
goodness is received. I got it. I will pay attention and think
as Russia all that, quote and bad Putin bad Trump Putin. Well,
I find it depressing. It is likely we have a few people that
listen to us and they will ask these questions of their
friends. Well, if it was a robbery gone bad, what made it
go bad? Yeah.
And these people will be much better for it. much healthier
for it for sure.
I have a good one. Okay. I want you to play this is a sand calm.
You know this. This is interest. This is interesting for a couple
of different layers. This is on CBS. So that means Yeah, which
is different from the sea is the CIA's national news. And so they
do everything with a purpose to see is publication. So as they
do everything with a purpose, so when they bring this story up,
there's a reason for it. I'm not sure what the reason is right
off the top of my head. I haven't been able to figure it
out listening to this report. But there's some reason there's
some other battle going on. Anytime you it's always these
intelligence groups, and they're erotic, they're not they don't
work together. And in the case of this thing, I want you to
have an override. This is about sent comms report being
doctored. I'm sorry. Yeah, we will play play and then I'll
bring up the point. But lastly, I want an overriding
consideration here. As you listen to it. Where's James
clapper? Isn't he supposed to keep this sort of thing from
happening?
For more than a year now, Americans have been told that
the war against ISIS in Syria and Iraq has been going well, as
were the US efforts to train Iraqi soldiers. But today, a
congressional Task Force said that intelligence was altered to
make it appear that things were going better than they were. And
it blamed us central command which runs the wars in the
Middle East. Jim Axelrod has been looking into this.
The task force was formed to investigate a whistleblower
complaint filed by a senior analyst at CENTCOM that
intelligence was being manipulated by command
leadership. Seven Republican Congressman Mike Pompeo is a
member of the task force. This
information from talented career professionals inside the
analytic arm at CENTCOM did their job and accurately
depicted what was going on the ground. But when it got to very
senior levels, that information was changed.
According to the report, starting around mid 2014, final
intelligence reports and public statements issued by CENTCOM
painted a rosier picture of the Iraqi army strength than the
initial assessments of its own analysts.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are making progress, such as when
set
comes then Commander General Lloyd Austin be fired in March
of 2015, that ISIS had been weakened in Iraq.
The fact is that he can no longer do what he did at the
outset, which is to seize into whole new territory. He has
assumed a defensive crouch in Iraq.
Around the same time as CENTCOM official stated the Iraqi army
could soon be ready to launch a major offensive to retake the
city of Mosul. A year and a half later, that still hasn't
happened.
When we send young men and women out to fight for our country.
They need to have straight up intelligence providing them
information about what they're up against.
This task force was made up entirely of Republicans but late
today, Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee released
their findings, and they largely reached the same conclusions as
for CENTCOM Scott, this statement, they are reviewing
the report but since the investigation is ongoing, there
will be no comment.
Wow. Axelrod reporting for
so this is something that when we reported on it POC months
ago, yeah, it was a conspiracy theory. Crazy.
Right. Yeah. And I liked I liked the term defensive crouch
Well, the thing that bothers me at the end, is this mean that I
think we're too easily accepting of okay, this is a bogus meme
that we can't talk about it because it's an ongoing
investigation. And you hear this everything. There's no
investigation they're just reviewing he says in the report,
it says they're reviewing it, but this reviewing is everything
time you open a book and ongoing investigation you can't talk
about and I've heard this and Trump is using it for his taxes
too. I hear this over and over and over again to a kid it's an
ongoing investigate why you can talk about it. What Evers isn't
Megan's an ongoing investigates so
what Yeah, so What? Yeah, well,
it's policies not rule or law that sometimes explains the Shut
up. Yeah. Loretta Lynch will say it is policy to not we don't
discuss. I mean, there's one department of justice what you
do is investigate.
So you might as well just say we well,
we don't report on anything because we investigate. We don't
report on investigations or
anything of the kind.
Anyways, it's bugging me. Ah,
well, I'm gonna call it for today, John. I think we should,
unless you have something
I have one last thing I want to get it out of the way shorty,
SHORTY Shorty. This just because I've been avoiding this, but the
Pokeyman update needs to be played. You need
an update jingle is what
you need. Thieves appear to be targeting Pokemon Go players in
Berkeley. It's happened three times over the last month. The
most recent occurred on Monday at Berkeley's Civic Center Park,
but the player has successfully wrestled the phone away. Now in
two other cases the robbers punch players or knock them to
the ground. Police suggest people keep their phones in
their pockets and don't play the game at night. Investigators say
they've made an arrest in one of those cases.
Thank you for the Pokemon update. It's not good.
