John C. Dvorak. Sunday October 9 2016. This is your award
winning give our nation media assassination episode 86
This is no agenda fully
qualified experts in human anatomy and broadcasting live
from the capital the drone Star state here in Austin Tejas. Wait
a minute, I'm into big apple. Morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley where Confucius say, man who
make Chinese can not curry favor. I'm John C. Dvorak.
Greg bobbin Buzzkill.
Yeah, yeah, great. What? Oh, you just gonna keep on with the
Confucius? Confucius joke. Yeah, I got the joke. The joke. Did
you have that written by someone else? I'm sure that's not in the
compute. Professional.
Wait a minute. Where did that come from? Yep. All right. Well,
you know, there's there's
already Martin Higgins. Everyone who knows comedy remembers him
from the good old days wrote that for you? Yeah. Oh, nice
started to sit in. Because he really said there was this phony
baloney feud because you hate these puns. So he wrote that
little gag is a one liner. It's fantastic.
Oh, it's yes. It's just fabulous. I don't think it's
phony baloney. I think we should put it to a vote.
Yeah, well, I might as well after this week's donations. Oh,
my goodness. What the hell happened? Is it because of
Columbus Day or what? What was there
a Columbus Day? Still? Well, is indigenous peoples day out here
in California?
On Monday? Indigenous peoples day. Yeah. Well, we're in New
York and I don't know if they celebrate Columbus Day. I think
they do celebrate.
Of course they do. Columbus Day is a big holiday. Oh,
why New York? But isn't? Isn't Columbus now deemed a racist and
oh, he's a racist
and a pig and a Yeah. So the names you can come up with? He
said, a slavery xenophobic slave driver. Yeah. Stuff like that.
Yeah. And all that stuff. Yeah. So I don't think it's celebrated
everywhere anymore. Well, New York would have to celebrate
it's a kind of an Italian thing. I don't know. I just put up with
it being not celebrated.
I just remember a lot of controversy about this in
previous years. And not that we really care because we pretty
much work on all holidays. Yes. Well, anyway, so here we are New
York City team to the keeper and I in our air b&b on East 58th
Street. Which is an odd neighborhood to be in
is an odd neighborhood. Yeah, that's not Hell's Kitchen. It's
what is it?
It's well, I guess it's not quite lower East LA Upper East
Side. It's kind of like no man's land like yeah, it's dusty. How
about that? It's it's just it's dusty. A lot of construction
going on. We
there's a lot of construction going on in New York. It's
ridiculous. It's just not as much as in San Francisco though.
Well, we're all but it's it's pretty nice. It's
got a lot going on everybody's building building building just
getting ready for the collapse. I mean, watch these these
properties go up for sale cheap.
Well, I don't know that. To me. It's like these are all Russian
owned properties. And they're just going to be here empty
until till the time was right for them, I guess. I don't know.
Very strange move into Sharon's.
So. But here's something the first time this happened to me
with Airbnb. And now so the reason we got this location is
because we flew out after the show Thursday, got in around
1015 into Newark, and Friday morning at 8am or 830. I had
this new house school Syracuse University Summit, which we'll
talk about, of course, these things always so why does
academia always start at 8am?
When ran into a lot of conferences where they always
want to start at 8am And the funny thing about it is usually
after they have the big party the night before. So people
straggling you have to give a speech at 830 in the morning,
people are straggling in, they can barely see they're still
seeing double and a half them don't show up because they sleep
in. It's just I don't understand it. And it makes no sense. So
I don't think they had a party the night before. But you know,
this is New York City and a lot of people particularly if you're
a Syracuse, New York based university, but you know, for
guests who are coming in for this panel, people have to come.
Most people don't live in the city. They live in Jersey, they
live in New York or Connecticut. So that means they have to get
up at 430 to be in, you know, to have any chance of being in at
8am. With this.
I'm sure the audience was sparse.
You know that the tunnel now in New York is is almost $20 each
way. Wow. I remember when I was four I think I remember when it
was 350.
Actually, cheese. Well, they don't want people coming in now
but anyway, so did they actually did they've been discouraging
people from coming into the city? Well, it's working with
those prices want to come in and take the train train, say,
Ronnie,
take the train. It's so safe, take the train. If we had
another crash and other train crashes in New York, anyway, so
that's why we're on East 58th Street is kind of an odd
neighborhood. There weren't very few Airbnb ease, in fact, only
one that kind of qualified which means it had like a bathroom
inside the apartment itself. And I liked it a lot, because this
is kind of you know, it's a typical New York apartment, you
got a bedroom, everything was kind of one space. It's a little
lofty, like, but the balcony it has a terrace across the whole
length of the apartment. And that was part of the appeal.
He's like, hey, you know, this would be good. And the picture
is it's almost as if you're overlooking Central Park and I
know that this is not you know, this is more like Second Avenue.
So you're not you can't see Central Park from here. But that
it kind of looks out maybe there's snow. I don't know. It's
just you saw the balcony and you saw you know, green in the on
the horizon everywhere. So we get here.
What do you mean? You said this was in the b&b
Airbnb ad Exactly. So we get in at night and yeah, that's great.
And I have to say this guy's super nice I don't think he's
ever done an Airbnb had zero reviews, which I know is risky.
But yeah, he's a he's a Muslim guy. So he's got very
interesting interior. You know, he's got you know, heavy wood,
you know, with these Arabs like John. Yeah, like Israelis the
same thing heavy wood and, you know, different kinds of
stylings. And Kai has size 15 shoe. Huge shoes. But it's
interesting. Oh, not really. But the next morning, we're looking
at a building across the street. There's no green. This is
complete Photoshop fakery? Complete.
Oh, interesting.
And I'm gonna have to post this picture, and I'm going to put a
review in the guys nice, the apartment is great. Everything's
fabulous. But it's a complete lie. I've never witnessed this
with Airbnb that they allow just a phony, photoshopped fake photo
in the ad. That's nuts. I've not witnessed this yet. Anyway.
Well, you just did. And now you're gonna bust it.
Yeah. Well, you know that. And I was thinking about this, that
all these great ideas that crop up. And this really goes back to
Napster. If anyone who's listening remembers Napster, it
was the original sharing idea. And I loved it. It's like you
had your was fantastic. You had your mp3, you couldn't search
for something, you could have found a guy with a great mp3. Go
ahead, let's take a look at what's on his drive. And it was
true sharing. And of course, yes,
and the thing that made it work. In fact, I will remind people
because I do this forever. During the Napster era, more CDs
were actually sold than at any other time in history. Because
people were on a discovery mode, you would go to like, just as
you described it, you want a song when I went to get to sign
this song. So you go get the look for the song, you find it
on some guy's drive, and then you can download the song. But
while you were there, you noticed, you could you could
look at his library and you'd say, this guy's got my taste.
And there's bands I've never heard of let me take a sample a
couple of them and you discover new music. Yeah.
But it was also just it was it was it was cool. You know, it
was the first experience of mass it was kind of a mass social
network of just ad hoc sharing. No one owned the whole concept.
There was no centralized without actually there was I'm sorry,
there were centralized servers for the search. That's not
entirely true. But for the search, so fast forward to 2016
What do we have? We have bull crap. Well, they ruined it. None
of my point. I'm making a point here because you can look at it
every single cool thing that we did with the internet, Silicon
Valley, and government ruined. So we had naps are always gonna
roll we can't have this no one will make any more money. It's
stealing stealing. And what is the end result? The artists, the
songwriters, the composers are being stolen from by the very
same people who came in to save them with Spotify and with all
these streaming services stolen ruin Now what else do we have?
We have? Yeah, ruin Well, Airbnb, of course. Original
idea. Hey, man, you can use my house you know, and, and it's
okay. And you know, we'll have a little system for you to
discover houses and and of course now you have to have
inspections licensing you got to pay special taxes ruined. Then
we have Uber Hey man, this is your pet. Feel Amen let's just
share I'm going this way share the ride no now we have to we
have data we have regulations can't stop here insurances
ruined every cool idea because of profit motive I believe
really gets ruined ruined
I don't even know if it's profitable or theme may actually
be greed well it's the cities want to cut the cities want
their cut I want my cottages Airbnb so we get a hotel tax we
need to cut it we were this is costing us money
do you know was asking she said hey, you know, with a south by
maybe I should just rent my place out and they'll stay yours
for two weeks. I mean, yeah, but of course that's fine. And said
well, what does that take? I said, well get ready for
inspections get ready for it. You know, you got to have smoke
detectors and every every nook and cranny. You can't have a
piece of the carpet sticking up so someone might trip. This is
really it's become almost not worth it anymore. To do this.
And there you have it. Anyway, that shell Yeah, I just wanted
to point it out.
It began with hitchhiking in the 60s. Yeah. You get a ride. Yeah.
Yeah, you get a ride now then you get murdered. I mean, it was
just I used
to hitchhike in in the Netherlands along the Amstel
dike. If I'd missed the bus coming home from school, I would
have to walk, you know, an hour and a half, or, you know,
hitchhike and I hitchhike pretty regularly. Because, you know, it
was it was the 75 was 70s, late 70s. Until one day, and that
really freaked me out some guy, you know, stopped picking you up
and would drive along. And he's like, I could see I'm sitting in
the front, you know, hands talking, and hey, how do you do
this a lot. I should have known right when he said that? Do you
do this a lot. And then he's like, rubbing his crotch. Man,
let me out. Let me out now, but I can take you know, let me out
now. Now. It was it scarred me. scarred me for a long time,
taught me to hitchhike.
So when you hit shade, you just stick your thumb in the wrong
direction, I
guess. Must have been that. Anyway, I was here for the new
house school, which I believe is a quite a famous and reputable
broadcast school. That is not
what I mean, say new houses who is named after and that's a
newspaper guy. Once you got to do with broadcasting? I don't
know. Well, what
is the Newhouse School? Isn't that is it communications is a
broadcast? I have no idea.
I was probably another one of those schools. It's a bit
probably a well established somewhat. I think it's like the
Cronkite School at Arizona State. It's just one of these.
Somebody threw a bunch of money out they named a new house and
put a classroom up. I have no idea.
All right. Well, you're disparaging him. But we don't
know.
What just disparage everything.
One thing's for sure. One of the alum of the Newhouse School is
Steve leads. He's the guy that originally hired me at MTV when
I worked at Sirius, and he's one of these. He's one of these
people just knows everybody. And so you know, he's the one that
also got Yarl Mon. And I think that's why it was a well
attended session, who was the CEO of NPR and there were guys
there, my old radio syndicators were there, there was one guy,
Dave Dwyer, and it's a very small auditorium. And I see this
guy, I'm like, I know this guy's face from somewhere. And I said,
Wait a minute. Dave Dave Dwyer, he was a assistant director
here. And he was later a director. And I said, Well, what
changed? He's wearing a collar. He's now Father Dave Dwyer. And
he became a Catholic priest. And he does a show on Sirius called
Broken Halo.
Wow. That's a change of lifestyle. Yeah.
But you know what he was always a really happy guy was he always
lit up the control room when he came and he was a nice, fun guy.
It makes total sense that he that he went that direction. So
there were just lots of people I remembered and was from New
York. I advertising business and stuff who was cool. And this
panel was about the future of radio. Yeah, yeah. Now, I know
was webcast. I know was webcast live. I know some people were
able to hear it. Apparently, no one recorded the live webcast.
But to add insult to injury, the new house school will be
releasing this podcast in November.
Yeah, just because it takes them that long to edit it.
I don't know what it is. That's the one of the most bizarre
things
like I thought it was bizarre to
Yeah, he's kind of like one of those things you want you want
to do you want to be ahead of
this did it you just did the thing. You got it recorded
there. As you're recording it. Just put it up on the net. What
are you waiting a month for?
I really don't know what they were waiting for. So that's
really too bad because I would have loved to have played a
couple of clips from this our rehearsal art that we did on
Thursday. was fantastic. For a number of reasons. The first one
being the moderator of the panel and on this panel was the Chief
Marketing Officer of Spotify. That was the head of rehearsal.
You and I rehearsed on the show we rehearse what we
realized how are rehearsed. Okay, yeah, I'm rehearsal. Okay,
go.
I am also on the panel, I think Assistant Program Director of
all of Sirius XM, then there was the Executive Vice President of
programming from iHeart Radio. Now, this woman had a chip on
her shoulder. And there was, Oh, you've I'll tell you in a
moment, and, and the final person was actually I liked her
a lot. She was represented the PRX public radio Exchange, which
I think is a pretty cool concept really where you can if you have
a show, you upload it and then you know, NPR or their public
radio stations can can purchase it there. So it's, it's pretty,
it's okay. I like I like what they're doing. And so this was
about the future the radio and this guy is Sean Ross. And who I
guess is a well known consultant, Edison consulting,
one of these radio consultancy guys. You know that, you know,
the kind John, we've seen them running around. Yeah,
I know they can but I never heard of Edison by probably.
Maybe I hate that's ringing a bell, but I don't know. Yeah.
Shan Shan had listened and listened to the show.
No agenda. Yeah. And
he said, Well, I listened to the starting off the panel and I
listened and Adam, while he thought in his show, that is how
he kind of talked that he was being invited as the
troublemaker.
That's what I said. No, I
said, troublemaker. You said, No, you're gonna be the asshole.
If you recall.
Okay, I thought it was the other way around. Get you're gonna be
the asshole. Yeah,
I'm like, Okay, this is a nice setup. So it goes on the line.
Okay, How's everybody feeling on a scale of one to five about the
future of radio? And everyone's like, Oh, I'm optimistic. I'm at
a four. Yeah, this is great. Radio is a fabulous future. We
know. It's never been so fantastic. And it's a lady from
I Heart Radio who's like, you know, we have we have great
engagement, whatever that means. It's just great. And I'm
thinking you have what is it? What do they have now? $6
billion in debt that they can't even service next month?
I have no idea. Something is bad. Whatever it is. It's
really,
really bad. And they come to me like, Well, I think radio is at
a one. I think everyone here on this panel was is lying. I think
you're freaking out. I don't think you know what you're
talking about. And that was the beginning. We set the scene.
You did that? I
did that. Yeah. Right. At the beginning while he started. He
asked everyone down the lines. Right. Yeah. Okay. I don't think
so. And it was really a lot of last week. Last one in that in
that in that particular setting that setup? Yeah. Setup. Oh,
perfect. Yeah. So you know, I was throwing out quotes, and
people were tweeting my quotes. When I rolled out this concept
of, well, we don't have listeners, we have producers.
And let me tell you why. And explain what the producers on
our show do. Deal with people like tweeting and writing stuff
down like, wow, wow, wait a minute. So you're waiting to see
you. So what you have your listeners, your consumers, your
your consumers, they produce for you, and how do you pay them to
pay them to this what we call value for value to not everyone
can support us? Because we don't have advertising? They send us
money. They send you money. Oh, yeah. And guess what? That's
what producers Do? Do. We don't give them a tote bag or a coffee
mug, and then we give them a credit. Oh, okay. Just like in
Hollywood, if there were people tweeting, curry says produce his
show, get a job through a credit from like, it was great. I could
not believe my luck. How people love, love everything we were
saying. So let's talk about competition. And they go down
the line? Well, I said, I don't know. We have no competition. We
actually have no competition. So I'm not competing for time or ad
dollars or anything. We're just we're not competing. We're
competing against
a comparable show. There's not a comparable show that does what
we do.
I think I had one point did say no, because we have the best
podcast in the universe. And we compensation, man. And yeah,
there must have been hate now.
Somebody's rolled their eyes on that one. Yeah, a couple people
that especially the guy who did his due diligence and listen to
the show once.
Now I want to thank you for, for telling me what it was about
creativity, because that was really the thing. What's the
most creative thing you've ever done that all my producers do
everything. I haven't touched the jingle. I don't think I've
produced a jingle or parody song in five years. That's not true.
But generally speaking. So this will compare
to the output we get from the producers and our creatives.
Yes. The entrepreneurs will say we'd never done anything
you Sr. Creatives. Exactly. Our creatives our creative team are
a creative to me. Yes. Our creative team. Exactly.
They're well, we do have a creative team. It's a different
than theirs, but it is one.
Yeah, it was extremely creative team. Yeah. Okay. So this
continues, and I want to thank you for telling me to mention my
box my, my podcast box. Oh, yes, yes. Because at a certain point,
it's a what are the problems? And what's going on? Is it well,
we got a lot figured out and in podcasts, and we've come quite
far. And I really set the whole thing up by saying, Look, dnn
broke a lot of things, you're in slow motion crash, just like the
music business just like print just like television, just like
well, like radio. So if you are in a distribution based
business, linear distribution, and the competition is obvious,
and your problem is legacy. You're hanging on to legacy
stuff. And for some people, it's just not possible to change
that. For others it is. And I said the biggest problem we have
right now is, is qual sound quality. You cannot get the gear
to make a podcast sound like NPR or even anywhere close. Because
everything is geared towards musicians or your you can't lug
around 19 inch racks with everything's the gear is not
there. Wow. heads were bobbing up and down. Right after I was
done a guy from ESPN comes up. Like he owns the place. I did.
John I did I owned it. Now at the very end. The girl stands
up. And she says, You know, I got a problem with diversity and
radio. She's black. And she and I do a live podcast every single
morning. And you know, we're I'm trying to break in I'm trying to
get into into radio and you know, but got a lot of people
I've got people listening and liking the show and they are
sending some donations but you know, I can't break in there's
no diversity and and then the I heart lady executive vice
president programming, also black. She'd like, I hear you,
sister. Oh my god. Geez, that's right. You know, we have no
diversity. People that look at us, there's only three of us in
the room, it became a whole Black Lives Matter thing within
seconds. And there were only three black people in the room.
The woman from my heart this this girl from her name is T
cage. I got to listen to her shell posted the link in the
show notes. We seem very cool. And and some other woman a
little further in the back. And, and it was nice. So she's
saying, well, there's no diversity and, and the I heart
lady's going, you know, that's right. And you know, but you got
to work at it. You got to show up, you got to do it. I did it.
I started as an intern. no glass ceiling. And I said it was
trying to applaud John the white people in the room. And I'm
like, hold on a second. What exactly do you want? And then,
you know, when when the white people are clapping for the
Black Lives Matter, and you interrupt that Whoa, it works.
oxygen out of the row. So what do you want to Well, I can't get
I said, you don't want to get into this. The only thing you
need to learn is how to ask people to send you money. Sounds
like you're on a path. Why would you ruin it for yourself
and become a slave? Drop that line?
Yeah, I need one of those Hillary earpieces for you to
whisper all the good things into my ear. Fabulous. Fabulous. So I
actually went up to her later, she said, Thank you so much. And
I knew I talked to her. And I think even I gave her an idea of
you know, and I said, this is how we do it. This is how we and
I gave the value for value. I said value for value. You went
to a movie, like our typical line, you went to movie last
night, you get the pitch, you got to drink the popcorn, 90
minutes to people 50 bucks. You just listened to us for two and
a half to three hours. What was it worth to you? And it turns
out, I said, if you leave that open, some people give you 50
Some people gave you five Some people give you 500 It's amazing
when you just ask people stunning silence. And luckily
that kind of that shut down the whole Black Lives Matter thing
it was it was really uncomfortable. Moreover, just it
had nothing to do with it really. You are on such a great
path. Anyway. So I don't think luckily, I didn't throw out to
be a slave thing. But I think people would have hated me. They
kind of liked me after that. And to admin talking, I was like,
Well, what is the what is the only thing that radio has? Well,
there's only really one thing radio has that you can't beat
you're hyperlocal and and people want time temperature and
traffic and that and you can build everything around that and
you really can't do that with podcasting because you can't get
the scale in a local environment. It's a million
reasons. And and, and instead
what I see Shall we get podcasting directly to the car
right All right.
And as it is coming,
though it is coming. And it's cuz I didn't want I wanted to
give them some glimmer of hope. And it was it was interesting
some journalists guy, I wrote his name guy. He said, so what
happens to radio with autonomous vehicles? I said, you know,
thank you for your thank you for bringing that up. Because you
pretty much just takes your answer is in your question. When
you have autonomous vehicles, there will be no need for time,
temperature and traffic, you'll be dead. Because the car will
know when to pick you up. The car will know the traffic, the
car will know how long it'll take. You won't need any of that
information. That's when you're going to be really in trouble.
Oh, yes, yes, yes. Okay. Wow, doo doo writing. Well,
I think you could add one more layer to that, which is what
also in an in a autonomous vehicle, there will be a radio
you can listen to. But since it's an autonomous vehicle,
you'll be watching television. Yeah, you're right. Just like
the limos. If you're in a big one. Yeah. You own your own
limit. You got a television set in the limo? Yeah. That's, it's
always preferred. So yeah, no, radio is totally toast. Yeah,
toasted autonomous. You know, that's actually one of the few
things I don't have on my list of negative effects of, of
autonomous vehicles. I will now add it
Yeah, I think is a good one to put in. So right after I'm done
now, lemasters, also known as Yarrow, mon, the CEO of NPR,
he's to do his keynote right after this panel. So you know,
when you do a panel, it's like, okay, you got a 10 minute break
and a million people run up to you and ask you questions, and
you don't want to talk to half of them because they smell bad,
you know, portable breath. Especially radio pee,
how close are you to these people, when you chat have
small quarters, you know, but you know how you know what I
mean? When you're on a panel is always a couple people come to
you can ask you some because I've had coffee, and he's
sitting there with a mouth closed, listen to coffee breath
just percolating around the plaque. But Yarl lemasters comes
up, and he occupies my time for 10 For the full 10 minutes. And
mind you, this is the superstar of the game. Everybody wants to
be up his ass, particularly people who are selling spots and
sponsorships and all kinds of reasons for people to talk to
him. Because Adam, I gotta tell you something really funny, too.
All right. Well, what I didn't ask I didn't clear to use this
on the show. But whatever. He said, so I really liked what you
said about live. And just to give you an idea of how the
organization works. To me, I really don't have any power over
the local NPR stations. But he has some obvious financial power
and stuff. He said, but I wanted to add the word live to our top
of the hour newscast. So I want it to be you know, I'm Lakshmi
Xiang is that her name? He knew it. Lakshmi. shebang is not the
woman's name, the NPR newsreader? I have no idea.
Yeah, it's like I'm Lakshmi shebang, NPR news. And he had he
said, Okay, I'd like everyone to do I'm Lakshmi Mang NPR News
Live from Washington. And so you know, you sent out this note and
okay, I want to I want this to be done at
which by the way, I think it's a good idea. Of course, it's
a good idea. It's particularly in light of the live and the
immediacy that I wanted to. So he said, Okay, make this so at
the top of the hour, and I'd like all the local stations to
also do it. So he sends out a memo. Let's add the word live.
So week later, he says, Well, how are we doing with that?
Well, the head of news. Yeah, we haven't started doing it yet.
And he's like, why not? To Well, we weren't sure about the
emphasis because it says what we do, do we say to NPR News Live
from Washington to do we say NPR News Live from Washington. So
they had argued for a week about that? Was it live from
Washington live from watch and I'm like You mean like Howard
Stern? Who
not surprised me in the lease?
Is it beautiful? And and the station's would not do it? These
are not enough we don't like this we don't like how it sounds
I thought it was arrogant or, and he said took me three and a
half weeks until he finally said I am the CEO of this
organization. I say we're going to put the word live in three
and a half weeks no wonder they got problems. No wonder I just
thought it to be a fantastic example of everything that's
wrong with mainstream media really not just NPR mainstream
Yeah,
I think it's a generality you can talk about mainstream media
you can talk about I think a lot of companies Yeah. Oh,
yeah. That's what the
polls you got your core corporate culture. Some new guy
comes in with a night with us with a good idea in that case,
but it says it's not what we do. You know, we've done this. I
mean, of course, we do the same thing. At least I know I do.
When people are always kvetching about well, I want you to get
get us guests as the two guys. Once you get guests and So I
always have my spiel about how much I hate having guests
because I've done the guest thing in different formats. And
you got to end my course by I have a stock line and say, you
get a guest. The guy doesn't show up. He can't do it on
Tuesday. He can't do this. He shows up and then he does show
up and then he's a dud and you're stuck with him. Lot of
things that are wrong. There's a million things that you have
with guests.
Anyway, so he does his keynote refers to me four times. Nice
specifically, he says I wrote this down what Adam said value
for value. like huh, go figure. Wow, yeah, yeah. One Yeah, no,
there was several things he referred to what I was saying I
mentioned
the no agenda show he didn't
say no agenda show now but check this out. This is an I haven't
heard back from so I in this was like, What do y'all listen to? I
got Geez. Yeah. Was everyone's like well, I love how we've done
our Spotify playlist by your turns out Metallica people
listen, I know just a million dumb things and I fine. I say,
Well, I really only listened to a few other shows. My partner
does. Financial podcast DHL unplugged. And we both really
like congressional dish. We've been you know, we've kind of
been helping the host of this Jennifer Briony, and it learning
the value for value model. And she's really it's actually she's
she would be perfect for NPR. He mentioned her in his keynote,
although although he called it legislative dish, but I
corrected him the legislative dish. So afterwards, there's a
lunch just for the just for the, for the speakers, the panelist,
the dean, and, and Lee and I, of course, and we're sitting there,
and he says, what was that called? Again? I said
congressional dish. I said, Don't worry, I'm gonna send it
to you. And yeah, I'd really like to say she's great. Now
we've already we've always told Jen, if NPR calls. She's got to
take the gig. So she set up.
Yeah, she just has to cut down on the cussing, although she's
had a predator. And now it makes a cut with a golf swing. golf
swing. Yeah, it's nice. Yeah. Which is fine. Nobody should
just eliminate it.
Anyway, I sent him the link sent them everything. I don't know if
he's going to do anything with it. But hopefully,
then one more. She that show of her is a perfect NPR
show for NPR and she doesn't have to compromise what she does
in the pod. It can be the podcast, you have to compromise
to be great. Yeah. Anyway. So then we're talking. I didn't
have the guts to talk about advertising during the panel
like hey, how's that advertising going on NPR? I mean,
underwriting color what you want.
Oh, you didn't have the guests who used the word advertising to
get a response?
Well, it didn't come up really in that regard. But
its timing its timing is
tight, so you can't just throw it in. Yeah, because you know, I
was already you know, a troublemaker I didn't want you
gotta know when to shut up. Don't be a douche. Like Tim
Kaine you got to know when to shut up and not be a douche. And
Lisa says know that and Lee says So tell me about this value for
value. I really liked that. And I'm so I'm explaining a bit you
know, he of course understood but here's the here's one of the
things we really learned numerology to people like to
send messages in their in their donation amounts. And sometimes
it's you know, it's a day it's it's important to them,
sometimes it's, you know, it's a like ham radio. This is $73 A
and for a while we were getting $80.08 I didn't understand what
it was. What is oh, it's boob and hacksaw to B O B. 808. He's
like, really? To Yeah, so people, didn't you? We don't
come up with this. And one guy gave us a boobs. Yeah, by next
said 808 185. He said, Wait a minute. So the drop down with
number amounts on our donation page is a bad idea. I said, Yes.
Now you're catching on now you're catching
on? Yeah, we can tweet at somebody can teach him. So of
course, I finally say to what are you doing? I love what
you're trying to do. I know I'm a big supporter of public radio.
And I love that you're trying to make it into just I understand
the pain of trying to get them to use the word live for three
and a half weeks. So what are you going to do? What are you
going to get to save these guys? He doesn't have to do this. Lee
is very wealthy. He doesn't have these been you know, he's an art
collectors on all kinds of boards. He's doing this purely
because he wants to so how are you really going to save these
guys from themselves? He says, Ah well, I'm actually putting
together a foundation. He's He's raising $1,000,000,000.05 100
million will be for NPR Central and the other 500 million
million will be for the stations. He said my legacy will
be 30 years they can continue to say but they already bought To
the last grant he said now that's that's the
misunderstanding. So that grant was 200 million that actually
kept it around 250 million with investing etc. I don't know that
exactly how those numbers work but the really what he's doing
is just you know, they're gonna save him by raising a billion
dollars and you know, he's eventually gonna get tired of
this crap and then NPR will just continue to be
it'll continue as NPR am still resisting live Yeah. And being
doing their own thing on somebody else's dime and in a
kind of like, Grant it's like being a being in the government.
Yes, a government job. Yeah, kind of is what it sounds like,
kind of is and I said, you know, that's
probably all they can do. He's probably got the right idea.
There's nothing else you can do. They're never going to
commercialize most of their stuff. I mean, wait, wait, don't
you know, whatever that Wait, wait, don't tell me. Yeah, show
those kinds of things that can make money No,
not be on going direct and podcast. They can but I don't
see any other way for is to give it does work. So anyway, bottom
line, for those of you within the sound of my voice. You're
listening to the true future of radio?
Yeah, I think so. I'm pretty sure. Pretty sure. Sounds like
it to me.
Anyway. I represented I think we do we look good. We may have a
few people listening. And we welcome them to the future of
radio. Welcome. You're all welcome here. Good work. Did
anything else happen? Did I miss anything?
Yeah, well, these are the pushy controversy. Pussy gang. Yes.
Let's see Jay is uh, we're live and well, I mean, there are
things going on. I just kind of stuns me and I think it will be
reflected by some of the clips. That you know we're on the
border of world war three.
Yeah, the Russians do you really think bad do you think it's it's
we're realizing borderlining on that
we're trying to make it bad. I mean, listen to this a whole did
the only one I want to buy got as the general the ISO of this
one guy, the Army Chief of Staff.
Okay, well, sorry.
Yeah, just play that.
Oh, a knife that rewind it. I'm sorry. I thought you had tape
there. A different reason. Here we go. We'll stop
you. And we will beat you harder than you've ever been beaten
before today. Was that the
context of Russia? Yeah, damn, this guy's in a hole and he is I
could do like he's yelling all the time. He's like the guy that
was at the Democratic National Convention, the Allen or whoever
it was the General General that was up there screaming really
yelling and screaming. I mean, this these guys and this is and
this is army group. And this guy in particular in some of his
other cohorts. I always thought Petraeus was bad with all his
you know, crap all over him. Yeah, that's not necessary. You
know, you know, put everything in the little things they swept
his you know, kept the bathroom clean, little chevron and he's
got it on him. This guy when he first thing he said when he said
I will beat you will beat you again. They will do talking
about having a quick war with Russia somehow I don't know how
that works. Meanwhile, I'm as he says that I'm thinking Geez, why
are we still in Afghanistan after 15 years? What happened in
Iraq? What happened in in Lebanon or Lebanon is not a part
of the scheme yet? What happened? What's going on this
year? Why don't we just beat them bad right now? Well, I
mean, these guys are full of crap. These guys have
several data points for you. Yeah, one is our own military
comm contacts and my line was WTF is going on with this Russia
BS. And what came back was Yeah, barking dogs don't bite. So it's
kind of seen as well, I wouldn't worry too much. However, I went
to our trusted source. I looked around and found him on a recent
episode of CNN GPS with Fareed Zakaria, our man professor,
Steve Cohen, professor emeritus from John Haas Hopkins, hops
Hopkins, Hopkins, Hopkins, Hopkins Hopkins, which we pretty
much see as some kind of intelligence school.
Yeah, nowadays from the and nowadays.
And I thought, it's always good to listen what he has to say.
And he is is worried as your I think, Steve, what is Russia's
gameplan here? What
does it gain from this really quite brutal strategy in Syria,
which supports the Assad regime, but at an enormous cost? It
seems to me it is making itself target number one for Jihad ease
all over the Sunni world.
Well, Russia takes a somewhat broader view of what's happened
and so do why We are in a new and much more dangerous Cold War
with Russia more dangerous in the preceding Cold War. We now
have three Cold War fronts that could easily become hot war with
Russia, Ukraine, the Baltic region, where NATO is still
building up on Russia's borders. And now, of course, Syria, the
importance of the deal, and let's be clear, it was
negotiated by lover off and carry. But it was a deal on
negotiation between Obama and Putin, for essentially a
military alliance in Syria and American Russian military
alliances would have been the first since World War Two. That
would have been what we used to call a detente or cooperation
breakthrough in the new Cold War, it was killed. So one
question we have to ask is who and why it was killed. But
clearly, it's dead. Watson. What's the answer to that? Well,
I would just simply say the Russians did not kill it,
because Putin and the Russian political class wanted this
arrangement with the United States very much. So the
question is, where does that leave us? And I understand what
Mr. Ignatius has just reported these important discussions in
the White House. But I would say that the first step forward is
stop basing American national security policy on the
vilification of Putin. Putin is the most essential national
security partner the United States could have in the world
today. Russia has a legitimate interest. And we ought to do
what we used to do during the past Cold War, talk about
whether our national interest can be coordinated and turned
into something. That's cooperation.
All right, so he is worried about the Cold War turning hot.
Josh Earnest spokes hold, the White House was asked, of
course, and he's taking a very mellow view, like the white
house there, we don't really want to do too much
interested in escalating the violence in Syria. We
specifically in response to the question about Russia's
bellicose statements lately, with Bri basically saying you've
got nothing to worry about. The US won't be using any kind of
military force in any form or fashion.
What I'm saying is that the I'm not going to be in a position
where I'm taking options off the table for the Commander in
Chief. I think I've discussed in some detail on the President's
discussed in some detail, why military action against the
Assad regime to try to address the situation in Aleppo is
unlikely to accomplish the goals that many envision now in terms
of reducing the violence there, and is much more likely to lead
to a bunch of unintended consequences that are clearly
not in our national interest. But I'm not going to take any
options off the table. And I think what I'm articulating is a
desire to de escalate the situation inside of Syria to de
escalate the conflict to reduce the violence and try to bring
some much needed humanitarian assistance to those who need it.
So who did the most
Yeah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So no fighting words out
of the White House?
No, though. It's the State Department. Does the
troublemakers here? Yeah, because they've been co opted by
the Kagan's. Exactly. And they did the Kagan's went World War
Three because there's some I don't have no idea why, by the
way, I you know, so I was looking at the Daily standard,
which is, I don't have any examples I should have printed
somehow. That is the worst edited magazine professional
magazine I have ever read in my life. Really. I mean, I'm
talking about extremely bad editing. And I'm I reused I'm
not into like heavy editing yet, but there's no like no editing,
and it's confusing to read their articles. It's like, it's a
standard thing. I'm gonna exemplify that. Maybe the next
couple of shows. Just read a
few things and you'll who run by law, who runs this who runs a
Weekly Standard, this is run
by a bunch of Neo cons. Bill Kristol.
Okay, I got it. I got it. Yeah. Brett Barnes. Yeah. The original
guys. The original guys aren't the subpoena. Yes. Yeah. The
project for New American Century. Yeah, those
guys are the assholes. Yeah, let's play this are this is a
longer report. This is the RTS Syria report. So we have the
Russian perspective, which is kind of oddly cynical universe.
RT. Yeah. what Russia
is sponsoring and doing is not counterterrorism. It is
barbarism.
In this case, I wouldn't rule out multilateral efforts outside
of the UN to impose costs on Syria or Russia or others with
regard to the situation inside of Syria.
However, just a month ago, US Russia talks on the Syrian peace
process seemed warm and friendly. To us, Caleb Maupin
takes us through how the relations have changed.
Remember, when the United States and Russia were keen on sharing
their friendship with the world This is from the Russian. Well,
it's certainly not like that these days,
extremist groups will continue to exploit the vacuums that are
there in Syria to expand their operations, which will include
no question attacks against Russian interests, perhaps even
Russian cities. And Russia will continue to send troops home.
invited back. So how did it get
this bad? Well, there are key factors that are being left out
as the hateful words and threats get louder. Firstly, the US
broke the ceasefire when it killed 60 Syrian Army soldiers
who were on the front lines battling against ISIL. Yes, the
Coalition did
hit people on Saturday.
We did a terrible accident.
Secondly, the United States promised to separate the
terrorists of Al nostra from the so called moderate rebels that
they were supporting. Yet months and months later, the US backed
fighters are still fighting side by side the terrorists and
extremists.
And it was our challenge. Coming to the table agreeing in Geneva,
our challenge was to try as best we can to reach out to the
moderate opposition and make clear to them that they needed
to in order for this thing to work.
It's like all the talk of peace has been forgotten. Yep. Yep.
Yeah, it's as if, as we is, is as if as if we really want the
entire Middle East to be dominated by a bunch of
radicals.
And Rob alized and Rob alized, both
death and destruction everywhere. I get the biggest
kick out of when we play part two.
I want to hear I want to hear parts you
just go shot group
here is the fighting against the regional period military powers.
These are these are existential for us and our allies. The
threat for this type of a fight is a nation state with modern
capabilities, aggressive behavior, and engaging in
militarized competition. So who would you pick for that one? I
think it would be Russia.
I want to be clear to those who wish to do us harm.
We'll stop you. This. Who's this? Who's this?
This is that the Army Chief of Staff of the US Army, oh, those
who wish to do us harm because
the guy right, stop you.
And we'll beat you harder than you've ever been beaten before.
You listen to the words of US officials. Somehow Russia is the
one who's being aggressive.
I don't think Moscow wants to risk a third world war. But you
know, the way I look at the way I see it, Russia's vital
interests are at stake in Syria, they do not want a terrorist
government to take over and Damascus. What's incredible is
that Washington in order to accomplish that, putting
somebody like, I'll lose for all Kaido, or various clones into
power is worth the Third World War, risking the Third World War
we managed to avoid with the Soviet Union.
In 2015, I still was getting more and more powerful, and
Russia urged the people in the world to unite against them.
After Moscow's bombing campaign, their previously vast territory
has diminished. This has awakened previously dormant
arguments. Well, let's remember,
one of the things that the people of Washington Africa have
repeatedly attacked Russia for as they say, Oh, you're not
attacking diet. You're not attacking Islamic State. You're
hitting the legitimate opposition from Russia's point
of view. And certainly from the Syrian government's point of
view, they're all they're all kind of they're all terrorists,
they all have the same ideology. Why should they actually be
singled out?
So now instead of pizza war is very much on the menu.
Well, there's one voice missing from this. And I have it. MK
that is the voice of President Assad, who
we haven't yet we haven't heard from him for a while. Well,
Danish television did an interview with Assad. And one of
our producers was kind enough to he sent me a whole bunch of
clips. I've selected a few. They're all short. They're all
under a minute. And I think they're all pretty darn good to
hear it from this guy. This guy who used to have Brad Pitt and
Angelina, Angelina Jolie drive around with them for lunch
hanging out. She was in Vogue magazine. Everybody loved her.
She was I remember her number besides wife, she was a
superstar and she's gorgeous, gorgeous superstar. Everyone
loved her. Now that I'll turn very, very quickly. So let's
hear a few things. Unless you want to set something else up.
I'd
like to play a couple of Yeah, no, I want to hear this. Okay.
First question
about the hospitals. And, you know, well, why did you bomb
your own hospitals?
When I look at the pictures, I see hospitals. I see the bits
inside the hospitals and To me really looks like it is
demolished. It has been targeted. So who's targeting the
hospitals?
I don't have the answer to which hospital I'm talking about.
Because we don't have any facts about it. We only have
allegations so answering allegations could be only
through Jesus facts. Teachers cannot tell you the story, even
videos, everything could be manipulated these days. I
wouldn't say that there are no such attacks on any building,
that as a government, we don't have policy to destroy
hospitals, or schools or any such facility to the people for
the simple reason, first of all, morally, the second reason that
if we do so we are offering the militants, the incubator, the
social innovator that they've been looking for, it's going to
be gift something we wouldn't do because it's against our
interests. It's like shooting ourselves in the foot.
Okay, so he says why would why would we do that? Why would we
give rebels fuel by bombing hospitals that makes no sense
that we did that this
was the same when they did the phony baloney gas thing which
has been re you know, we've it's been reduced to facts that has
been de reduced a bull crap again, why would you gas is
like, Oh, he's gassing his own people. Yeah. Why would you do
that is these are the people are gonna be fighting for you?
Exactly. You're gonna gasp and it was just playing like, just
like straight up. I have two clips that go back to back that
alright, I have more. So if you want you want to put these in
now these two clips, I just want to
put these in because it kind of refers to what the hospital clip
so that it wouldn't start with. These are just two clips from
two different sources and two different things. And I just
thought they will as as back to backs they worked out well. The
pre clip carry is the beginning.
Okay, here we go.
Russia and the regime over the world more than an explanation
about why they keep hitting hospitals and medical facilities
and children and women. These are acts that beg for an
appropriate investigation of war crimes. Yeah,
okay. If you think that's a war crime, play this play this drone
strike clip. Oh, geez.
Okay. I wonder what this is about a war crime.
The United Nations is calling for an independent investigation
into a US drone strike in Afghanistan in September, which
the UN says killed at least 15 civilians and wounded 13. More.
US officials say the strike was targeting ISIS militants. But
the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan says it killed a
teacher, students and members of a family that supports the US
backed Afghan government.
That's not a war crime. That's calculus.
You know, what apparently happened? I guess a un guy was
near this hit. We're just blowing stuff up randomly. It
appears I mean, it's like killing the sailors shooting it
down. I think it was only 40. Something Syrian is Syrian Army.
Well, we're not even supposed to be and so why are we doing
flying around Syria? In the first place? There's
your question. Okay. Let's let's talk about this. So
Kerry's gonna talk about war crimes. I think maybe we should
talk a little bit about some of these drone strikes. These are
war crimes?
Well, of course they are. What do you want to talk about? The
war crimes,
as I just mentioned it.
They're supposed to be surgical strikes. That's not working out
too well. So who do you have here? We got the players, US
Russia. And another group.
United States, they stopped all bilateral talks with Russia
about any kind of peace agreement and the Russians, they
said that they actually regret this. Do you regret that as
well?
We regret it. But we knew in advance that it wouldn't work.
Because the agreement is not only about the talk between the
two great powers is not about what they're going to sign or
agree upon. It's about the will. And we already knew we had
already known that the American didn't have the will to reach
any agreement, because the main part of that agreement is to
attack a Muslim, which is, according to the American list,
and to the United Nations list is a terrorist group. But in the
Syrian conflict is American court. Without an Misra, the
American cannot have any real, let's say in concrete and
effective court and the Syrian arena. That's why we're
regulated but we already knew that. It wouldn't happen.
But isn't it very difficult for the United States to separate
the so called moderate rebels and some of the radical rooms is
it very difficult when you are attacking the moderate rebels
all the time? You are right. Do you know why you are right? Do
you know the unicorn animal that's like horse has longer
horn if myth in the moderate opposition is myth that's why
you cannot you cannot separate something that doesn't exist
from Tom something that exist, all of them have the same
grassroots, the same bras produce TV, I used to be called
Free Syrian Army four years ago, five years ago, then it became a
Muslim identity came ISIS. So the same grassroots movement
from organism from group to another group. That's why they
cannot separate it. And they don't if they if this is
reality, not a myth. They don't want, but they cannot.
But why did you ask them to do it if it were possible?
Because they insisted that they are there, there is a moderate
opposition, and the Russian told them, okay, if there is a
moderate opposition, please separate the motos modules from
the ex service didn't work, because they don't exist. That's
why.
So there you go. In a nutshell, the problem is, the idea of
modern moderate rebels is a unicorn, and you cannot separate
them out. The Russian said, Hey, okay, us, why don't you separate
them out? And we failed? You couldn't? Yeah, I think that's a
very accurate assessment.
Yeah. So we're screwed. We got this thing? Well, I don't think
we're screwed. I think we we are supporting the radicals. There's
the thought that we had on this show numerous times that ISIS
was a creation of the Israeli folks. And I mean, by the
Israelis in our intelligence groups, we want the Middle East
to be rub alized and run by terrorists. And we're supporting
all of them. I mean, we tried to do that. The thing was, I think
when the Muslim Brotherhood guy won in Egypt, I think that was
part of our scheme. We were hoping that was gonna it didn't
work out and the military took it over again. But we, you know,
we didn't say much about either these events, because I think we
wanted the Muslim Brotherhood. I mean, Luma, Aberdeen is very
closely connected to the Muslim Brotherhood, the White House has
gotten nothing but the Muslim Brotherhood people in and out of
it. I think that there were huge supporters of this group.
Well, a couple more clips here, which you liking these clips, I
thought they were pretty darn good.
Deal. Yeah, I'd like to do that because I didn't hear him. Here
we have
the difference between the American Coalition and the
Russians
for the intervention in Syria, as part of the international
coalition, which is actually an American Coalition. This is
again, the international law. This is again, the sovereignty
of Syria, because it's not in contravention with the Syrian
Government, while the Russians came to Syria, of the taking the
permission of the Syrian actually after having invitation
from the Syrian government, to support us in our fight against
data. So this is, again, the sovereignty This is against
international law. And this is against any moralized political
policy. Anywhere. In the end, though, it's illegal. The other
aspect of that policy the embargo, as part of the European
Union, they made embargo on the Syrian population 10s of
millions of Syrians, they're not allowed to reach the basic needs
of their life, for example, you cannot buy now pumps for the
water. They cannot buy medical equipments to diagnose somebody
who has cancer, we will die because he cannot afford this
materials. The embargo prevent the Syrian companies, airlines
companies from having staples for the airplanes in order to
prevent those airplanes from crashing in the air and killing
the passengers. This is the policy of the European Union.
And Denmark is part of that policy
slams Denmark there, of course, because Denmark is a part of
that policy. And we don't really ever hear much about the the
sanctions that are put on Syria. That of course, in and of itself
is an act of war, I feel sounds like we've got some pretty
stringent regulations in place. And as Assad points out, look,
we invited the Russians to come here and help us the EU, the
coalition, which has which is just a US coalition. They came
here uninvited, it's truly their breaking international law. And
that came up again here in this short clip,
the question would queue as a Danish citizen except to me as a
foreigner to support opposition in your country with money and
to tell them go and kill. And that's how you achieve your
politics goal. If there is opposition, what the definition
of the opposition could do except opposition in your
country that belongs to other country or should be Danish
opposition belongs to the Danish people. They cannot deal with
your opposition to support in other country. This is
intervention in eternal matter. This is again the sovereignty
again, the international law, they don't have the right to to
support anyone is here against anyone. It's not their business.
We are a sovereign country. We are independent, we have the
right to tackle our problems. So they're not in a position to
support anyone with a right or wrong.
Sounds fair enough to me.
I have too many to do about it. Yeah,
well to him two more, of course, what what everyone wants to do
about is they want Assad to step down. And it's my firm belief, I
think the bands who do they want to step in? Well, first is my
firm belief that this is still all about, I think he'd been
mentioned in one of these clips, that this is about Qatar, Qatar
wanted to pipeline up all the way up to Turkey. And they
assumed everyone would be all on board and Syria said now, I
don't think so. We don't want that we're not going to
participate in that we've got another pipeline coming from
Russia, Iran, Iraq, and we want to bring that into the port,
maybe you'll send it up to Turkey, but probably, you know,
send it out through a Greece or something or Cyprus. That's what
this is about. But if Assad steps down, then of course, we
can fix it all. We'll bring in a new government. So why don't you
just step aside, sir,
if it could speed up the negotiations for a peaceful
future in Syria, if you left office, and maybe another one
from the student administration took over? Yeah. Why wouldn't
you do that, then?
To leave you mean, that depends on the Syrian people. It's not
it's not my decision. And if you don't have the support of the
Syrian people, you have to leave right away. Because without that
support, you cannot achieve anything, you cannot produce
anything you will want to fail. So that's simply the reason,
especially during the war, you have to reduce the ship to the
shore, you don't run away because there's war unless the
Syrian people want to tell if I'm the problem, again, or the
the other point is your other side of the story, if
unreasonable to outlive. But it's not about me. I'm just used
as a nominal reason. It's much bigger than that. It's about
Syria. It's about the government. It's about
independence. It's about the war on the regional level, it's
about the war between the great powers. Syria is just the
headline, and the President is the main headline.
So you don't think that you were one of the reasons for the war?
No, I'm not the reason for
the war. Because if a reason the war should have started in 2000,
since I became president, not 2011 When the money started
pouring from Qatar, and when the Knesset took the decision that
they want to topple governments and President COVID also a
couple of things he says there one, yes. If it was really me,
why didn't people start to make in trouble for 11 years since I
was elected? And
know when not only that, but he did it fails. I mentioned that
they were buddies with him big time. But you mentioned earlier
Yeah, it Joe Lee was there Brad Pitt there was hanging out with
me.
Yeah, how do we forget Never underestimate the long term
memory of the of the United States public for sure. And he
mentioned right there. No, it didn't stop and it didn't start
until Qatar he says specifically Qatar started flowing the money
in which of course led to the instability in the region,
weapons etc. last clip.
Mr. President, you have said many times that you will
continue the fight until you have recaptured the whole
country. Is that still your approach to this?
Mission, according to the Constitution, is the mission of
the army according to the Constitution if the mission of
the state institutions according to the Constitution is not an
option? It's not personal opinion. It's not my plan. My
mission is to defend the civilian My mission is to fight
terrorists My mission is to take control of every part of my
country you don't take part of your country and state you don't
you don't say it's enough for me to have half the country or so
there you go to no I'm not gonna stop this this is not my
strategy this is what I'm this is what I'm here to do. I defend
the Constitution and my country. We could learn a bit from that
just a thought.
Anyway, I think has gone way beyond the pipeline I think has
become a matter of national prestige and saving face which
is one of the reasons we're you know acting tough Hmm,
well we could slide this into the elections but looking at the
time why don't I thank you for your courage and say in the
morning to you John C where the C stands for commander of the
new sound of radio DeVore ACK
well in the morning to you Mr. Adam curry also in the morning
all ships and sea boots on the ground feet in the air subs in
the water. And all the days and nights out there
in the morning everybody in the chat room record numbers once
again in the chat room good to see everybody here I'm sure
they're all interested in pussy gate. And in the morning to our
well all of our artists but specifically in the morning to
serve Salafi brought us the artwork for episode 866 delay or
avoid and this was the Friday night distraction, which also
man we call that one. This was the the artwork of the hurricane
Matthew Then we we call that the the Friday night distraction.
Good artwork. Thank you, sir slough, no agenda art
generator.com is where you can upload your artwork. I also
talked about that, as we, as we rehearsed, I said, creativity, I
don't know, every single show we have at least 10 pieces of
artwork to choose for album art for our for our program. And I
think we're the only people who do that. And we are and it's
appreciated.
All right, well, we got one, Associate Executive Producer,
Tim nonnamous, who comes in every so often 20 to $22.22, for
some unknown reason. He's from an unknown place. And so he'll
be made an executive producer. And that's that.
What is it? That's all we got. That's all we have. Yeah. I'm
looking at the list now. Holy. I don't think it's been this bad.
And how did this happen? Are you sure someone did mess up with a
spreadsheet?
No, I don't think anything did their damn, there may be a
this is horrible. John, this is like, now I haven't seen this
level since 2011.
Yeah, it's I believe that there is a well, let me spreadsheet is
wrong. Here. Let me tell you. I'll tell you why. And I think
it's wrong by not by a ton. But it's wrong is no doubt about it.
I'm gonna have to talk to Eric and get this thing straightened
out. Okay.
Well, hey, for all you guys listening as I was pontificating
about us being the future of radio, whoa. Our vow of poverty
comes true. All right, that's it. Okay. Well, alright,
everybody. Thank you. We're working real hard for you. We
have another show coming up on Thursday. We'd love for you to
participate and help us out. for.org/n A, and of course, no
matter where you are. I'm going to do it here in New York City
propagate the formula? Our formula
is this. We go out we had people in the mouth shut up slate.
I just I just want I just want to play a couple of clips about
the about the hurricane.
Yeah. Well, I you know, I Horowitz was following this
closely. And you were talking about he's strapped his boat
down. And then I hear on Democracy Now. In fact, we
should probably just get a little intro here. I want to
Democracy Now. I've got the one that they talk about climate
change. I just think it's too funny to listen to God regarding
Matthew. Yeah.
So young people in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina are
under evacuation orders to discuss how the climate change
has been largely ignored, and media coverage of Hurricane
Matthew. We're joined now in our New York studio by May bhuvi,
Executive Director of 350 action, the political arm of the
climate organization, three fifty.org. May, it's great to
have you with us. We so often see the words extreme weather
and severe weather flashing in the lower thirds of the TV
screens. Where are the words climate change and global
warming? You're exactly right. And Hurricane Matthew is
unfortunately, just the latest example of a trend where the
impacts of climate change get more serious. Politicians
continue to have a break and say not nearly enough about it. We
have unequivocal reason to know that these kinds of storms are
made worse by climate change,
man, and it fits in so perfectly with the quick ratification of
the Paris IPCC, by the UN EU and President Obama's own appeal to
avoid or delay or avoid destruction of the planet.
The
but the computer models were off that was the main thing. Yeah,
yeah, it was it was destructive. But every prediction they had
was off because they're using computer models. The same type
of calculations are used for climate change in general
computer models. You pointed this out at nauseam on Thursday.
Yeah, computer models are no good people generic not rely on
them for the sort of thing when there's never been modeled
correctly, let alone the climate. Now. I was just
listening to her complain about he's not you know, we haven't
had a good hurricane hit Florida for like 10 years. And you know,
then the listen to them bitch about this not being reported as
horrors of climate change. And that's McKinnon's group again,
by the way. Make Kanban 353 50 guys who's just hob Thumper. And
Amy's you know, she's all signed in on this. Well, you have to
remember this, like the big deal that took place in the last say
the last year and a half or two years was getting China on board
with his climate change and China is on board starting in
2030. And they're gonna base all whatever they do their cutbacks
on on what how bad it's gotten by 2030. And this is a huge
breakthrough for everybody in this in this climate game. Yeah.
It's unbelievable. And they were so proud of themselves for for
doing this. This entire thing is tedious. It's tedious. And it's
hard to it's hard to combat it because that's all they talk
about. Everybody all signed in on it. Well, I was I find it to
be ludicrous. And by the way, horror was, you know, you said
well, I maybe should do more than just tie his boat down.
There's supposed to be a nine foot storm surge coming to Fort
Lauderdale, which had lifted his boat up and into his house right
under his Tiki hut.
Nothing happened in Fort Lauderdale is where this things
took place and slammed into Florida. And he's got pictures
he beats posted. Here's the beach right now. And he was
disappointed because there was nothing going on. Yeah.
Well, probably because of the pure hype. And it's it's
interesting that remember, we didn't have a clip at the end of
the show. Yes, I did. Hold on a second. About the hype.
Yeah, right up for the guys who hinted he won't be it's not like
those other ones that were overhyped. Yeah,
this is this is real it's real man. This is real. Let's see if
I can find that clip real
quick. Yeah, here I'm not saying nothing happened because you can
isolate there's a lot of isolated spots where all kinds
of but it was Lauderdale didn't get hit. I mean an insurance
wants to hit it directly hit me or something fishy about this.
If you live in Florida, take care of neighbors check on the
elderly in your family. This is not a good scenario appstore
category for for you know several days here along the
coast. It's not
there's not and it's not high. It's real.
Not hype is real.
Not a hype like the rest of them.
Shep Smith, over on Fox he took he took the crown. I'm sure you
saw at least one clip of him. Maybe you know, ship is a ship
Smith, the resident gay guide Fox, who was very concerned
himself mainly because he had a family wedding to go to and he
did not want to be on the air the whole night with dead
people. This storm
will kill you. It will kill your children. It will kill your
pets. And everyone you know who wants to mess with it? Does that
House say that? We can't play the audio because there's a word
of dirt in there. Somebody said a dirty word you have round the
clock. Some other words for the rest of your life says
wordy derd A word heard. Yeah, that's a wordy dirt is a dirty
word. Don't you know that John and Fox News Midland
team Fox smother rich for the rest of your life on this thing.
We'll be live all night long. And I won't be because I'm going
to a family wedding. And Matthew is expected to be stronger and
last longer than Katrina. You see what I'm saying? This moves
20 miles to the west. And you and everyone you know are dead.
All of you. Because you can't survive it. It's not possible.
And your kids die to do it now. Or risk death on a freeway in a
traffic jam from Hill later to let your children die in your
house. Not nearly as mad as they'll be at you if they're
dead. Look at this fool. But not everybody's listening. Because
freedom and stuff. Freedom. And that will be very bad. I want to
get to Dolores burr halter. She's dumbbell. I asked her why
she's staying. And if she expects us to cover her funeral.
I will honey Thanks for your concern. Bye. Bye. Bye very
mean. All right, go put some water in the tub or something
wash your hair. I was just silly. Because if too many of
you perish they'll send me down there. And I need to go to this
whether
you will die or this
guy. He's over the top. He's lost it. You will die.
Your kids will die. Your pets will die.
So horror was done to do evacuate. He's on the he's in
Fort Lauderdale on the coast. And he took pictures he blogged
a little bit. I don't know if he still has power. That's a
problem. Right? Because everyone's you goes powerlines
get whacked. But I think this thing was exaggerated.
Yeah, well, certainly the path was exaggerated. I mean,
they definitely found some places that got flooded and
Jacksonville because of this thing kind of going up the coast
and then slammed into the northern part of the state and
then I guess into Georgia or eventually and I just thought I
just think I mean they were just digging found all the good spots
and found some Trees that fell over like that never happens
that happens when there's just a rainstorm around here. I don't
know, I just found the whole thing to be I'm sure there's a
couple of people that get you know, but I think there's only
three or four dead and the totals on the hundreds by the
way it sounded Well,
we did have over a hundreds in Haiti. Haiti, of course already
got Haiti, not here. Somebody
said, somebody sent me a note. And I just don't know I said,
Wait a minute. I said he's right. How can we always have
this? You know, this? We do. We created Haiti as this as this
hellhole on Earth. Which reminds me what Pat Robertson said once
years ago, that it was it was some some signature deal with
the devil. But I think they bred this hell on her so took because
it does collect a lot of money. I mean, the Clinton Foundation,
George Bush got in on this action during the earthquake,
and and then money never got to Haiti or
Iran, Haiti. They've been running Haiti since the 90s.
Yeah, well, it's the devil. And so they have this all this
activity in Haiti. Haiti is only 1/3 of the island. And nobody
ever discusses anything in the Dominican Republic.
They didn't have any devastation from that devastating
earthquake, either. I always found that to be very
interesting. Yeah. Well, yeah. What's
the little Republic? God that's going on with them? They don't.
They didn't hurricane hit him. And yeah, I'm sure it did. But
what's the difference?
Well, they're not living in tents all in the Dominican
Republic, the Haitians are living in tents, still. That's
the problem. They're living in rubble already. Rubble. Here's
the Haitian ambassador to the US. I thought this was telling
ashore an interest in providing support to the country. But I
want to emphasize, we want to be certain that there's not another
disaster, in terms of the way we manage the type of that coming
to Haiti.
May have been hard to understand. But he says, hey,
you know, just like the earthquake, we don't want
another disaster with how the help is brought in. Wink wink,
nudge nudge? Yeah, yeah, please don't help us any more. Hillary,
Bill, please don't help us. We're okay. Well, we'd rather
live in rubble. But have you come in and help us?
I find it very peculiar.
Well, you know, so of course, my conspiratorial mind was saying,
Well, yes, this could just be a bad computer model. Or, you
know, it was so interesting how the previous election cycle we
had, that when the Republicans were going to have their
convention, huge storm, Florida, if you recall, all of a sudden,
she wasn't that Sandy.
Was it Sandy? Yeah, couldn't be
the last picking anything was Sandy. So you could also say,
Well, maybe they you know, what modified the weather had this
thing crank up because they knew not only was FBI about to
release a whole bunch of emails again on a Friday for a three
day weekend. But you know, there's some WikiLeaks stuff
coming out, maybe we should have a big distraction, the Friday
night distraction, and we'll steer it off the coast, we won't
kill too many people just to solar too. Maybe I'm just crazy
with my
fingers. But there is a very good Disney presentation that's
floating around people linked it here and there. On YouTube. It's
a movie that was made in 1952, discussing whether science and
weather manipulation by Disney, ah, it's very interesting to
watch is about a half an hour to find that, Oh, very cool. Yeah,
find that and then put in the show notes at the next show.
So instead, what what happened as, as these WikiLeaks came out,
this is the number one email guy found in WikiLeaks with with
Clinton is John Podesta. Not the number one but one of the number
one. And so they had these these transcripts so called
transcripts of her some of her Wall Street speeches. And it as
Fox was discussing this, that's when pussy gate came in. The
timing is just where you witness it right here in this very
clear,
I think we're just getting you know, these emails, so we're
kind of going through them live real time. Obviously, the audio
came out late this afternoon. And a number of places went
whole hog with it and you could see why networks may be are
going to take that is kind of hit you in the face when you
listen to all of it, or the
rhetoric is extreme, even for Trump, which is saying something
and you definitely know that that's exactly what Hillary
Clinton is gonna want to stress in the debate on Sunday. She's
gonna want to turn the debate to Donald Trump exactly like Tim
Kaine did the question is whether Trump can turn it back
like Mike Pence did. I think there is some ammunition for
Trump in these transcripts, two of them jumped out at me one is
your call for in North America with open borders. And for
Donald Trump in particular, who has staked so much on the
immigration issue. This is something he'll stress, the
other is where she talks about sometimes you need to have a
public position in addition to your private physician, and that
exactly that goes to the heart of the untrustworthiness
probably Hillary Clinton has had throughout this campaign,
so they had to be everyone had to kind of pivot. So the timing
of of this 11 year old audio was perfect I'd say Perfect. Well
I have actually you don't hear this as much. But this is
actually the best the best push the clip
ladies and gentlemen. Hold on a second. The affiliates got the
best pushy clip
you don't see me move into no African jungle anytime soon. Or
some goddamn does it somewhere sitting on a carpet with a bunch
of air rams. No sir. And you won't see me stop beating no
ribs either. Got them ribs and puts the two. Don't Malcolm
talking about no person. Now you know that gonna work?
You know, I have this clip too, obviously. And I actually
labeled it as weak. Because this is this is indeed viral going
around and like this is the weakest defense ever. What is
this Divorce Act? This is dumb is weak. Is a week clip.
It's the best policy clip this week. Ah, geez. Well, you want
to play the the I have the PBS report on I actually have the
PBS report. I didn't realize how the PBS report on Haiti too. But
here's PBS on Trump. But first,
the twists and turns keep coming in the race for the White House.
Just two days before Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton meet
in their second presidential debate. John Yang reports.
Late today on new storm around Donald Trump. Hello, how are
you? Hi, The Washington Post 2005 videotape in which Trump
has heard talking in vulgar terms about trying and failing
to seduce a woman Hey, when your star they let you do it. You can
do anything whatever you want, grabbed by the to do anything.
It comes as Hillary Clinton has been blasting Trump for his
treatment of women. And Trump has been threatening to make an
issue out of Bill Clinton's and Fidelity's. Well, well,
let me ask you a question.
I have listened to that. Yeah, they asked me what's up?
Okay, because I'm gonna ask you the clip, because I watched
this. And of course, we saw the news with Tina and I saw the
news. And we had to go online to actually hear all of it, which
I'm sure everybody did. When I heard that clip for the first
time. First of all, I saw Tina just she was just like, she
physically if I home man. And I also felt like geez, what the
heck is this. And it took us until the next morning, really,
to realize that the truly despicable part of this is that
this is how is how the election is being fought. And the timing
of it and and believe me, this is not the end, there are right
now three Jane Doe rape cases in three different states against
Donald Trump, they are likely not real. But this is going to
be reported as multiple rape cases in courts around the
country. It's all Jane Doe, so you don't know who it is.
There's gonna be I'm sure more audio, there's plenty more
that's going to come out in the next month. And that really,
that made us sad that really this is this is where we're
going now. And of course, the knowledge that when you put an
animal in a cage, you know, who knows what's going to happen
now?
Who knows? Yes, it'll be interesting. I mean, first of
all, the first thing I thought of having been in the working
class, is that this sort of banter between men especially
like it can be cynical and say, gee, this guy's in the
construction business and he talks like this Yeah, it's it's
it's not even close to being like offensive it's just the
typical bullshit crap that guys say to each other to get to get
a rise out of him and he does what he did do you find
Do you know which group of guys does this all the time? All all
the time?
Well, I like to know which group of guys doesn't but who are you
thinking gay guys?
Oh, yeah, all day long. Oh, I'd bang that as oh boy, who would I
wouldn't do to you know, just on and on and on, continuously.
Yeah, well, this is but this is like some, I guess I don't know
what, what the point of the whole thing is, but it really
got everybody all worked up, especially these Trump haters
that are out there on the Twitter's. And they're just
going nuts. Now this is the thing that gotten me I thought
was aghast by this. This is Tim Kaine and Tim Kaine makes a
comment on the comments and this is so disingenuous that that
it's offensive.
campaigning in Las Vegas democratic running me Tim Kaine
reacted to the tape.
It's just I mean, it's It makes me sick to my stomach. I, I
don't like to even say the words that he's used in the past when
he calls women, pigs, dogs and sloth. I shouldn't be surprised
and shocked. I'm sad to say that I'm not
makes him sick to his stomach to hear the word. Yeah, I can.
concerning how I feel about Tim Kaine, I can see it as possible.
But
did you but the one that surprised me, for a number of
reasons was Robert De Niro.
He so blatantly stupid. He's a punk. He's a dog. He's a pig.
He's a con a bullshit artist, or mutt who doesn't know what he's
talking about, doesn't do his homework, doesn't care thinks
he's gaming society doesn't pay his taxes. He's an idiot. Colin
Powell said it best he said national disaster. He's an
embarrassment to this country. It makes me so angry that this
country has gotten to this point that this fool this bozo has
wound up where he has. He talks how he wants to punch people in
the face. Well, I'd like to punch him in the face. This is
somebody that we want for President, I don't think so.
What I care about is the direction of this country. And
what I'm very, very worried about is that it might go in the
wrong direction with someone like Donald Trump, if you care
about your future vote for it.
The two things about this clip one, it was produced by
anonymous content. And we no anonymous content. As one of the
producers of Mr. Robot and had a bite at a big anonymous content
thing in the background. That's just I don't have any real.
Anything other to say about it, then. Wow, it was just
surprising to see anonymous content in this context. And the
second part is didn't Robert De Niro put a revolver in a woman's
vagina in a movie?
I don't know what movie that was actually driver. I don't
remember him doing that in that movie. But yeah, I mean, he's
like, an example of this. The what he's, I mean, Hollywood,
guys. I mean, this is like, I don't want to throw the kind of
generalized too much. But it's like the rappers who this was
not my argument. But the rappers who, especially this took place
years ago, that were condemning society and telling people to
steal, shoot and kill in their songs, right, and then bitching
about their music being ripped off on mp3.
NWA? I think I know. Exactly. Well, what was interesting about
this tactic that has been taken is, you know, guys, certainly
straight old white guys, you really can't You can't say
anything in any argument is what are you going to say? You can't
defend? You can't really defend this. I mean, the defense of all
Yeah, I talk like that. Girls talk like that. You know,
everyone talks like that. But so to me, again, it's just the the
nastiness of this. This election coming down to this done by the
Clintons. First First Blood, I think.
And they've done a good job. I pointed this out in the
newsletter, I said, these guys are just kicking the butts of
the Trump campaign. Yeah, they're much more big, got more
talent. They know what they have. They know what they're
doing know what they're doing. They know
that now the public is working. And this, let me see how many I
have these 1234. I have four different mainstream media
clips, all different networks of the following happening. We'll
start with let's see, oh, this was actually with Bill himself.
Let me just get the right one here. Here. This is Milwaukee
Bill Clinton himself speaking. Listen carefully in the
foreground. I don't know if you can hear that very well, but
there's a woman walking in front of the camera with a sign and
she's saying Bill Clinton is a rapist. Bill Clinton is a
rapist. CNN,
in Elkhorn, Wisconsin today is where Trump was supposed to be.
He was supposed to appear on stage with House Speaker Paul
Ryan and a show of force in Unity. Well, that didn't happen.
Then Mike Pence was supposed to be there in his place alongside
Ryan and we've just learned that he's no longer attending. Jason
Carroll is with me. JASON CARROLL joins us joins me now.
From New York, from Elkhorn, Wisconsin, I should say Jason
pence just about two hours ago pulling out and saying he won't
be there either. What are you hearing as we await Paul Ryan?
It works better when you see the cute young girl jumping up and
down with Bill Clinton as a rapist sign and her t shirt Bill
Clinton's face with big rape on it. As Bill Clinton is a rapist,
MSNBC,
they'll businessman, or maybe he didn't perform very well in some
of his business endeavors. But I think one of the kind of the
things that we really need to be looking at in this debate is
that Bill Clinton is a rapist Phil finds a rapist is a rapist.
All right.
So he knew that he had a minute. That's how he wanted to use his
time.
We hear some clapping going around over here.
That's the best roll Hey, what's really important electoral is
that Bill Clinton is a rapist that finally Fox and Friends.
I've been
waiting for this segment all morning long. We are rolling out
the red carpet not for Tucker but for some adorable adoptable
dogs. Every year the Best Friends Animal Society helps
cats and dogs who are stuck in Animal Shelter does
not he's a little bit upset. But that's okay. Everything is fine
on Fox and Friends because we are surrounded by dogs and if
there's anything that comes to human heart, yeah, it's a
canine. That's the whole point of the segment actually.
So that's now a thing. Bill Clinton rapist Ah
well, this started with the with the seed guy. Yes, yes. Yes.
came up to the to the Young Turks, Cenk.
Oh no. I'm convinced this is all Roger Stone with help from Alex
Jones and whoever buddy else that he's involved with. Oh,
yeah. No, this is obviously I think it's just Roger Stone. Uh,
he had that T shirt. He was holding up the bill clinton face
with rape under a t shirt at the at the Republican convention
when that democratic convention as a Democrat when that when
that fractious occurred. Yeah, I think that's what the democratic
committee okay.
Yeah. Well, I know when that occurred, and you know, the big
fight between chunk and Jones and, and Roger Stone was running
around so so they were set up. I mean, they clearly were planning
this. And yeah, this is this is now
they already had the shirts made and everything. The shirts a
dead
giveaway, always. But there was a very interesting thing that
happened. I didn't mention it on on the previous show. Although I
did have the clip. There was a Hillary Clinton did a town hall.
And she had this 15 year old girl, which by the way, she had
a red bow in her hair, this 15 year old girl. And Tina was
looking at the video she says there's no girl in the universe
that puts a red bow in her hair when you're 15 Because you will
be beaten up at school. You have to see the boat understand it
that she said it's obvious this girl is doing this to look
younger. So she stands up. She's the first one that stands up.
And it's we know how these things work. these town halls
are scripted, scripted, the questions are given. Yeah,
everyone knows what the questions are. It's all going to
be okay. Especially if it's videotaped. And so she gets the
microphone, she reads her question. And I immediately
went, who is this girl? And that her name is Brianna. And it
turns out she's the daughter of, I think a democratic
congressman. So shades of setups that we've seen before, not just
with the Clintons, but we've seen these types of PR type, you
know, kids who were work or whose parents are in PR firms.
This was the the infamous Hilton Hilton kid talking about you
know, the Revolutionary Guard coming in and, and throwing the
babies out of the incubator and the babies on the floor,
flooring, The babies on the floors and the incubators. So I
was like, Yeah, okay, well done. Even for our shows, like we know
this stuff happens. It wasn't all that important. But then I
was watching Smerconish. That's the media deconstructionist on
CNN. And he's not only did he set it up properly, he played a
little clip, which is what I would have done exactly. But
then he has this girl and her dad on the show. And this is
after the grabbing by the pussy quote. So he's bringing off
course well, I mean, we're gonna talk about these horrible things
want to bring a 15 year old on the air? That sounds fair. And,
and I just wanted to share her response. And because you know,
the main the main conspiracy theory is that she's apparently
she has an IMDB page, and she's acted in some movie. So you
know, like, no agenda thinking, what would we say? John? We say
set up, right. Yeah. And obviously, all right. Well, of
course, let's listen to his setup. And then this girl Come
on.
Was it an amazing campaign moment or merely planned
stagecraft at a Hillary Clinton event in suburban Philadelphia,
a teenage girl in the audience asked the perfect question to
highlight Donald Trump's mistreatment of women. Watch.
Hi, Madam Secretary. I'm Brennan and I'm 15 years old. And my
school body image is a really big issue for girls my age. I
see with my own eyes, the damage Donald Trump does when he talks
about women and how they look as the first female president, how
would you undo some of that damage and help girls understand
that they are so much more than just what they look like? Oh,
thank you. I
got picked up everywhere, including the New York Times
which identified the girl as the daughter of a democratic
Pennsylvania State Representative. He's a state
senator and said that he had helped shape Senator ups I was
wrong tape the question, but didn't name him or see a reason
to further connect the dots? Well, as you can well imagine,
plenty of media outlets took that fact and they ran with it.
They accused the state Sen. Daylin Leach and his daughter
Brennan of being paid plants something that the Clinton
campaign has been accused of in the past. The outrage and
backlash overwhelmed the original story and all but
obliterated is actual content, part of the endless inside
politics narratives that turned the whole process into a circus.
But here's the thing, everybody did this without ever asking the
girl or her father. So I'm about to rectify that. Joining me now
is Pennsylvania State Sen. Daylin Leach and his 15 year old
daughter, Brennan Brennan Are you
wait, first of all, now that they're on remote, and she is
now next to her dad and now she has a big white bow in her hair.
Again. Again, this is just not credible. And I want to point
out, he says something very specific. He says that they were
paid shills and as you listen to this interview, they're going to
decline deny that they were paid shills which is probably true. I
don't think they were paid. But were they shills? Yeah. Remember
the conspiracy theory? She's an actress Brennan.
Are you an actress
now? How do you think she comes? How do you think she'll sound
when she answers this John? 15 year old boy, you've had a 15
year old daughter. You're we both have. They're now older. We
still have them but they're not 15? I don't know. Okay, you tell
me if this sounds right to you.
Brennan Brennan. Are you an actress? Look, if
you consider a couple of school plays and a video for my
friend's mom acting then yes, I love theater. I've been
passionate about it since I was a little kid. But in no way was
I approached by Hillary's campaign or asked ask a
question. She did not know I was going to ask a question. She
didn't know what I was gonna say at all. So I mean, it was by
chance. Unfortunately, I had never met Elizabeth Banks
either. So completely unrelated. And I've never been involved in
both at the same time.
Man sounds like a 15 year old to me,
doesn't it? Roll rambling and what's Elizabeth Banks got to do
with it? Yeah, she's the
one that gave her the microphone. Of course. She's
like I did. I don't know who Elizabeth thank no one asked her
that. I didn't know Elizabeth Banks was the one who gave her
the microphone as first for the first question. She was sitting
right next to her. I don't know who that is. And I love how she
starts off with look. Come on, John. Yeah, I
know. The look was bad. Yeah.
Did dad write it for you? Did he prod you in any way?
Not at all. I mean, I this is an issue that's really important to
me body image is something that's really relevant to girls
my age and when a public icon like Donald Trump is calling
women fat and ugly pigs, and you know, judging them only based
off of how they look, it really does affect us. So I wanted to
write this question. I came up with it. Obviously, if you think
you're gonna speak in front of the future president you have
your parents look over it and help you edit it and I practiced
it a couple of times. And I mean, he definitely helped me
sort of compose myself and fix my wording, but other than that,
it was my idea. And I came up with it on my own sounds like
a 15 year old Pokeyman Go player to me.
She sounds like an actress to me. Yes. Thank
you. That's my point. Cadence and
everything. Oh, yes, it's not right. Not
not not just that, but she sounds like she's been hanging
out with Hillary bots. She has the total cadence of, of what I
hear amongst Oh, yeah. Women. Yeah. Now she says something
interesting here. He said, you know, yeah, with all this talk
of Donald Trump, you know about pay women are pigs. Well, Donald
Trump said that a few times, and I think mainly about Rosie
O'Donnell. But where did she really hear all this? She heard
it. Yet she heard it on the news. Of course, she heard it on
the media never heard. It's the media. It's the media that's
been telling her this. And so it is the media who's influencing
her the media, who was creating body shaming issues, just like
as this clip of also from this past week, this may have been
Fox or CNN, I don't know. Where they talk about the influence of
the media when it comes to these types of issues. Dana,
your thoughts on whether that was an organic moment? Or still?
And if it was, do we care?
It was completely staged. And if Hillary Clinton had any sense,
this is Megan, her response would have been, I think your
mom or women in your family can teach you to have enough self
esteem that you don't have to sit here and depend on what a
presidential candidate says. It's incredibly ironic, because
when I was Brennan's age when I was a 15 year old girl, I was
learning all about oral sex from Hillary Clinton's husband,
because that was all the headlines. So kind of ironic.
Wow, yeah. Okay, you get a clip of the day for that band you
clip. shares. It's the truth. She's, yeah, I think she nailed
it. Yeah. Totally beautiful. That's a good one. Oh, man. And
what do
I Yeah, and I don't know if I if there's really much else I have
to say about it. I do have
one little thing that I think is kind of funny. I slip of the day
where they but it's
actually you know, I kind of screwed up that Clip of the Day.
Now the Think about it. There was a there was a kicker to it
that I cut it off.
Dammit. Well, you get Clip of the Day anyway. So you know,
you're
you don't want you don't want it? You don't want to hear it.
Do you know?
I guess not. Is the case the kicker? Good. Good.
I think it's pretty. I think the kickers is good. Yeah.
Okay, we'll play it again, play
your thoughts on whether that was an organic moment? Or still?
And if it was, do we care?
It was completely staged. And if Hillary Clinton had any sense,
this is Megan, her response would have been. I think your
mom or women in your family can teach you to have enough self
esteem that you don't have to sit here and depend on what a
presidential candidate says. It's incredibly ironic because
when I was Brennan's age when I was a 15 year old girl, I was
learning all about oral sex from Hillary Clinton's husband,
because that was all the headlines. So it's kind of
ironic. Oh, crap.
I was wrong. It's a different clip. Oh, boy, I have to give it
time. That clips
you have lost the Clip of the Day. I can't believe I will. I
lost it. The first time that's ever happened on the show. It's
my
own damn fault. And now of course, voting until you had
some more than you did. I had it but then it was. I suck.
You pulled the Trump okay.
Now I gotta find that great clip. I don't know where it was.
Crap. Here
we go. Now we get myocracy now, and I've got a couple of this is
the clip is called this the scandal that never I believe
that before the pussy clip. Trump, I think they were trying
to set trump up with other scandals that never got any legs
whatsoever. But democracy now felt obliged to run the story.
In news from the campaign trail, CNN has uncovered at least two
more softcore pornographic videos that Donald Trump
appeared in, in addition to the 2000 Playboy softcore porn video
revealed last week and the two newly discovered videos from 94
to 2001. Trump appears fully clothed interviewing a potential
Playboy model and photographing other clothes models
in this scandal Donald Trump was closed, interviewing a closed
model.
Like okay, yeah, good one. Very good one.
Nice try it now
it doesn't say that they
are getting the second part is another one of these bonus.
Bogus scandals.
Meanwhile, Greenpeace has revealed Donald Trump has
multiple financial ties to the $3.8 billion Dakota act Access
Pipeline, which has faced months of resistance from the Standing
Rock Sioux Tribe and North Dakota, and members of hundreds
of other tribes from across the US, Canada and Latin America.
One of Trumps financial disclosure form shows he has
between 500,000 and a million dollars invested in Energy
Transfer Partners, the main company behind the Dakota Access
Pipeline, Trump also has 50,000 to $100,000 invested in Phillips
66, which is slated to own 25% of the pipeline. If it is
completed. She's
50,000, John.
Hey, Buster, They're busting their chops over me because I
bought Philips gas once Oh,
no, you're a horrible man. But I
fill it filled the tank man, these guys gotten no traction,
no traction, no
traction. Well, what do you think is gonna happen tonight?
What's the what's the what's gonna take place? What do you
think? We got to think about this
all we are what we're everyone's hoping for, of course, is that
Trump goes off the rails. Yeah. And just to excoriates her and
tries to you know, the the the meme that's going around, which
is the second, which I think is very interestingly orchestrated.
I think the Clintons did a wonderful job of this is the
second round of always gotta quit the campaign, right?
Second round of this, ya know,
round didn't get any traction. It was like, oh, yeah, sure.
He's not going to do that. Let's face it. So they did it again to
hoping to get some traction. They, you know, it's almost
ludicrous to see people retweeting it, the survey that
showed that 43% of the voters think he should quit, because it
doesn't say that those 43% aren't Hillary supporters. And
why why should he quit? Why would anyone in the Hillary side
if they're accurate with what they're trying to accomplish?
Want him to quit? But wouldn't you want to run a guy against a
guy who is getting weaker by the minute? No, I agree. Even say
that's what you think is going on? Unless you're insincere?
Yeah, even Saturday Night Live when they when they parodied
this whole thing? The the fake Hillary Clinton would No, no,
no, he can quit, please, please. He has to show up. Which makes
sense. That's what you really want.
Yeah. So what is correct? What's the deal with this meme?
I don't know.
And I find it very, very screwy. But what's going to happen
tonight? You know, I thought Trump would choke the last time
and I don't know that. And Hillary was, you know, so glib,
unless she like, passes out, but they they have I think that'd be
you know, that would be interesting to see. But they're
gonna both be I believe you watch the both be seated. They
won't be standing at the podium, which I think was a
huge this is a town hall event. So this is different. You have
the you have the staged questions. And I assume if
they're not staged, it could be rigged that could be rigged for
one side or the other that that's a possibility. They'll be
seated I believe so as Hillary doesn't have any less chance of
passing out or anything strange happening that somebody brought
up the point that because of whatever it is she she her
ailment is of she has an ailment that disclaimer in there they
had to keep the audience quiet in the last debate no applauding
don't make don't make
yes no sudden moves, no flash photography
anything that would trigger an event so I thought that that was
reasonable. And you know that reasonable explanation for
because I've never seen this before don't say anything? kind
of you know Dosch to what's the point of having an audience and
they're all gonna sit there mum. I don't know if they're going to
do the same thing if they do it again. And they have this this
town hall with their everybody remaining silent. Yeah, I would
be very suspicious. Yeah. But if I don't know I think they're
going to it's somebody pointed this out shoot, it's apparent
that they have done a really good job of and they believe
it's the CIA is a conspiracy thing. The CIA has done a really
good job of breaking down Trump's personality to the point
where you can determine trigger points things that will will
sidetrack and things that will distract him questions or
answers or or situations that will bother him right. None of
the Republican guys that ran against him in the primaries had
this information. Good personality deconstruction would
probably be useful to them would have been right Right. Right. So
Hillary's got that and so she's gonna use Trump I do not believe
has he wings it I think he's gonna add lipstick because he's
been a salesman all his life He figures he can. Deacon instruct
somebody and see they figure out their weak points based on his
experience. So far as it worked,
what? What would what would we advise him?
To do, I think he should just harp on a couple of final couple
items that instead of generalizing and then getting
sidetracked and, and talking about things that have nothing
to do with anything, just ignore all that, ignore it. I agree.
And so just start with you. Well, I'm gonna ignore that for
obvious reasons, and then go after her on on this open border
thing that somebody suggests it's fantastic to have just no
border at all. I mean, this is a part of the New World Order. And
I you know, unfortunately, I don't think he's it read in
properly on the New World Order. I think he's just, you know,
they keep him in the dark. Well, I agree. You gotta focus on her
weakness.
Yeah, what's the first of all, about the sitting down thing? So
it would be very interesting. If there were people trying to
trigger an event in the audience, that would not
surprise me, that would be something to do because I'm, I'm
expecting dirty tricks at this point. I agree with you
completely. He should say, you know, what you said, for obvious
reasons, you know, we gotta move on. And I want to talk about X,
Y, and Z. And then he has to start throwing some zingers, he
would have to say very, very calm. Uh, sadly, I think that
tonight, we will hear about multiple rape court cases
against Donald Trump. I think that Hillary Clinton will will
that will be her. Her next surprise. Cuz I know this is
being set up. This is this is the big setup. And it's really
interesting when you think about the Dutch slogan, which I've
mentioned to you several times, but just being yourself, would
you cope do the health? Remember this one? Yeah, like, forget the
meaning go. It's what you what you say of others is what you
are yourself. And when you look at what has happened in this
election cycle, we have the Clinton Foundation, you know,
please look at Charles ortel.com. And also the news
that we had over a week and a half ago, that Charity Navigator
all of a sudden came out and gave them a four star or five
star rating their highest rating, which they did after the
Clinton Foundation did not change any documents as
requested and this is Charity Navigator are are not an easy
group to deal with. I know that Tina had to had to change some
donor policy things to get a you know, a full star rating from
them to do they really do you know, they read and they look at
stuff and they had Clinton on the watch list and it was all no
good. And then all sudden, they got the five star rating. After
one thing didn't happen, which is now been documented in the
shownotes. If you want to read up on it, they made no changes
to their 2005 numbers, which was the request and the Clinton
foundation donated $2 million to Charity Navigator which itself
is a is a nonprofit, and all of a sudden they got a four star
rating. So yeah, corruption. Corruption is what that's
called. So that problem No, a million dollar Trump Foundation.
That's the big headline, do the whole sexual assault thing. You
know, we have Clinton with Jeffrey Epstein, the Lolita
Express. We've got tons of tons of women, tons of stuff out
there. The university where you know, we know that that Phoenix
Rising thing whatever Clinton bill got it $30 million for
being the the counselor, that huge Ponzi scheme of billions of
dollars of crap. Universities as being over finance is a house of
cards. No, Trump University sucked. So it's always this and
now you're going to see this rape. And it's going to be the
discussion is going to be this because I've already heard it
starting. What Donald Trump did is sexual assault. That is
that's what we're gonna it's going to come down to that and
I'm hearing it from Millennials everywhere. In fact, I've heard
them say this is the textbook definition of sexual assault.
And it's not. But that is how it's going to be played. And I
I'm afraid that Trump is not going to be able to contain
himself and he's going to be accused of rape.
Well, I right now, I think the giveaway on Trump's failures and
apparently he won't take advice. By the
way, let me give you the textbook definition of sexual
assault if you don't mind from the updates from the Department
of Justice from their website. Sexual assault is any type of
sexual contact or behavior that occurs without the explicit
consent of the recipient, falling under the definition of
sexual assault or sexual activities as forced sexual
intercourse. For sodomy, child molestation instead. As fondling
and attempted rape. So saying that you that you can do this if
you're a star is right they're not rave. But the whole point of
what he was saying is oh, they it's not unwanted from these
women that apparently Donald Trump can grab their pussy when
he's a star. So it's just not the it's just not the
definition. What's beside the point? I know, I know. But the
discussion tonight I guarantee you will be that will be called
assault slash rape. Trump will respond by saying but your
husband's a rapist and then the whole thing falls to shit.
Well, here's the thing that happens. It may not dem might
even show up but but it's gonna show up outside if it doesn't
show up at the debate. The giveaway to me that troubled
with choke this and he's not going to get through it at all.
Because because of the way he handled the other episode, which
he could have just passed off. As you know, there's two apps
have no
and we have no evidence he knows how to handle it is what you're
saying?
There's none. Yeah. And here's the here's the reason that
here's the backup on that. When he was accused of making these
comments, he says yes, I did say that. But Bill Clinton has said
far worse things to me on the golf course. zactly
idiots savvy thing just so dumb, stupid. Yeah.
I mean, it's almost juvenile. For almost it's very juvenile.
Oh, yeah. Wait a minute. Do you damage anything? I try. If he
did that I did it. If I did, he did it worse. Yeah. It's just
ridiculous. And if he does pulls any of that, because I don't
think he see what the Republican debates he caught that everybody
with their pants down. They don't know what hit them. No.
And I still believe, by the way for people that, that a lot of
people think that we support Trump and they don't want to
give us money anymore. But this isn't true. Who do one of the
things that you know, when he did the Republican stuff? They
were caught off guard and they they there was no counter. They
couldn't counter anything he did. And I want to remind
everybody, that the one good thing about Trump that we should
never forget. He kept George Bush or George not George Bush,
but Jeb, Jeb Bush, Louis Jeb with their explanation from
becoming president. We don't need a third bush. We don't need
a second Clinton either. But we don't need a third bush. That
wouldn't be bad and he would have probably given it a good
run. I could have beaten Hillary maybe. So here's my pleasure.
You.
Oops, oops, sorry. Sorry. Sorry.
Um, don't take the Hillary he really has any dirt on Jeb he
didn't seem like an interesting enough guy. Was that guy I can
I redeem myself a try. With the clay the clip I thought was the
kicker. Okay, go is the CNN, the main character, and this is Anna
Navarro. She is the the resident CNN political analyst all in for
Hillary
and I just say that quickly. I
have to get to break him up. Are you guys?
Good? All this shaming of each other on TV? Really? Let's not
do this guys. None of us are on the ballot. The people that are
on the ballot are Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, and we are
judging Donald Trump. If you choose to believe him, if you
choose to make excuses for him for him, that's your choice.
That's your smile. Man who has consistently disgusted me from
the first day of this campaign. And I think that every single
Republican is going to have to answer the question. What did
you do the day you saw the tape of this man boasting about
grabbing a woman's pussy?
All right, well, you please stop saying that word my daughter is
listening.
At least when I say palsy, but you're not offended when Donald
Trump and I said the word that you're not offended by the man
who you are supporting is saying that by him saying that too.
We'll be right back.
I just love her yelling policy a lot. That was great.
Okay, well you still get
your word back. Okay. Sorry.
I'm in the doghouse. It was good. There was a good guy think
it was in baby very funny clip.
I blew it. This is not the future of radio anymore. Um,
yesterday's news baby.
says regarding we're getting off that type of go to. I don't
really have any more for the well, whatever.
What I do have, of course, I do have stuff on on the wiki
transcripts if you want to. I have a couple of clips about
that. Okay, yeah, I think we should just do those real quick.
ABC for your Lena report, by the way I could not find really an
NBC or an ABC version of the report that CBS and NBC did do.
This is CBS This Morning rate Clinton
faced a campaign controversy of her own Friday, WikiLeaks
released what it says are emails from her campaign chairman.
They contain some potentially problematic revelations for the
Democratic nominee. The
portions released Friday point to why Clinton has refused to
make them public. In his speech to Goldman Blackrock in early
2014. Clinton recalled a middle class upbringing, but admits
she's far removed from that now, because the life I've lived and
the economic fortunes that my husband and I now enjoy a year
before she told the national multi Housing Council that
politics is like sausage being made, it's unsavory. You need
both a public and a private position.
That was Donia pretty pretty fair reporting. Certainly for
CBS this morning that today's show on NBC
documents do give a glimpse of a Hillary Clinton that's different
in private than in public. She even went so far as to say as
much on the issue of trade that was so important to Sanders, she
actually went so far as to say she would call for an open
border policy quote, my dream is a hemispheric common market with
open trade and open borders potentially causing her some
trouble at the same time here. There are no major bombshells in
these documents, if they are authentic, that really stands up
to the magnitude of that story about Donald Trump and many
Democrats I've talked to in the last 12 hours privately saying
they think this race might already be over.
Alright, so you heard the little she slipped in a little if they
are authentic in there, this is I saw that little piece of
propaganda. Yeah, that's bubbling under right now. This
is Podesta it's his emails is saying now these are mine. No,
that's fake.
Yeah, and he won't do that. I don't think that's gonna happen.
Well, this is gonna let live leave the meme in there and he
just says I'm not going to comment.
Okay. Fox, of course, these were both 37 seconds. Thank you, NBC
and CBS. Fox obviously did a little more.
Alright. Clinton and her campaign have repeatedly refused
to release the transcripts of her speeches and Political
analysts say these leaked excerpts are likely the reason
why including where she apparently called Bernie Sanders
supporters a quote, bucket of losers. That comes from Psalm
2000.
By the way, I looked for that I could not find any document with
bucket of losers in it. I really want that if anyone has found
it. Please, that's a great line. The
reason why including where she apparently called Bernie Sanders
supporters a quote, bucket of losers. They come from some 2000
emails hacked from the personal account of top Clinton named
John Podesta none of which have been confirmed mind you.
They do they slip it in there as well, John Little fox, spreading
the mean
campaign researchers trying to flag Podesta about quotes that
could be politically damaging, for example, one that says
Clinton admits she's out of touch, referring to a speech she
made at Goldman Sachs, where she talked about her middle class
upbringing, and went on to say quoting so I lived that and now
obviously, I'm kind of kind of far removed. Because the life
I've lived in the economic, you know, fortunes that my husband
and I now enjoy, but I haven't forgotten it. Another red flag
came in 2013 to speak to the national multi Housing Council
where she said, quoting again, I mean, politics is like sausage
being made, it is unsavory, and it always has been that way. But
we usually end up where we need to be. But if everybody's
watching, you know, all of the backroom discussions in the
deals, you know, then people get a little nervous to say the
least. So you need both a public and a private position. The
aides also flagged comments where Clinton is aware of the
security concerns around BlackBerry's even admitting that
everyone at the State Department was being hacked. Even personal
emails quoting here again, at the State Department, we were
attacked every hour more than once an hour by incoming efforts
to penetrate everything we had. The emails also entailed
comments indicating she supports the Keystone Pipeline, which she
publicly opposes how she favors single payer or government
funded health care how she thinks Wall Street insiders are
what's needed to fix Wall Street and why she supports lowering
corporate tax rates and raising the Social Security age for the
record of the $22 million she made from speeches after
resigning as Secretary of State $3 million came from Wall Street
so far, there has been no comment from the Clinton
campaign. John Podesta thinks he was hacked by Russians trying to
throw the election to Donald Trump.
So that leads me right into if you don't mind a little more F
Russia going on here because we've changed our tune a bit. We
have here CNBC. It's official John and
the story has always been, we sort of knew who did it. And the
question was, what's the US going to do about it? And now we
have the answer a public shaming statement from the Obama
administration, saying, Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, them's fightin words. A public shaming
statement, John? That's I mean, them's fightin words, don't you
think? Go? Yeah, again,
administration, saying the Russia is trying to interfere in
the US election. It's a joint statement from the Department of
Homeland Security and the Director of National
Intelligence. And it says that all these attacks bear the
hallmarks of recent Russian attacks in Europe and in Eurasia
in the Ukraine, and it says, quote, only Russia's senior most
official could have officials could have authorized these
activities. So it does say that the kinds of attacks it's
talking about here are the cyber intrusions on the Democratic
National Committee, the Congressional Campaign Committee
and some individuals Colin Powell, former US military
commander, a White House travel aide, it doesn't say that it
believes the Russian government is behind these probes into us
voter registration databases, we know about the ones in Arizona
and Illinois, there have been perhaps a couple of dozen
others. What the statement does say is that, in most cases,
those probes seem to come from servers that are operated by a
Russian company, but they say we're not in a position to
attribute that activity to the Russian government. And then the
statement ends by saying, this is all separate and apart from
an attempt or an ability to actually affect the outcome of
the vote. They continue to say that the system is so the
election system in the US is so diffuse, so disorganized, so
disconnected, that it would be very difficult for even a nation
state actor to try to affect the actual vote tally. But
nonetheless, it says they should be on the lookout. Again, any
reaction here from Moscow?
No, but I think the most interesting reaction we've heard
all day is from an American intelligence official who says
that he's skeptical that public shaming is going to work against
the Russians. I'm just gonna say beyond pure public shaming, what
else do we have to do? What can we do? Well, there are lots of
things we could do. And that's been one of the questions. We
assume that diplomatically, the US has been trying to tell the
Russians privately knock it off. That apparently hasn't worked.
It still continues. So the question now is just going to
work. I mean, there were a number of other options. There
could have been prosecutions here that somebody could be
indicted, there could be some kind of reciprocal cyber attack,
all those things were apparently discussed. And this is the
option the administration for the moment anyway, has chosen,
we're shaming you. Shame on you.
They can't go much further than that, because there's no still
no evidence or proof. I have the clip from RT which discusses
this. This is the President blames Russia,
Dookie.
In today's other news, the United States formally,
PBS, PBS got
organized the hacking of Democratic political sites and
state election systems, the Department of Homeland Security,
and the Director of National Intelligence said it is an
effort to interfere with the election process. We get more
now from David Sanger of The New York Times. David, thanks for
being with us. What's the significance of this and the
fact that it comes what almost four months after we first heard
about these hacks?
That's right, Judy. And we reported in late July that the
government and intelligence agencies already had high
confidence that it was right, okay.
Stop for a second I want to interrupt. Sanger is a New York
Times guy has been sent all around the world, and I believe
him to be associated with one of the intelligence communities.
With the intelligence community, I'm not sure for who but he
usually comes on these shows. And this is the official
argument. Yeah, what you get to hear
then, and the official tactic is shaming. I'm sorry, I still
can't get over
it. This is even brought into this. From his perspective. I
think that's some media made up. That's right,
Judy. And we reported in late July that the government and
intelligence agencies already had high confidence that it was
Russia. What was interesting about this statement is sort of
three big things. The first is that the White House decided to
formally do this. Usually President Obama has been very
reluctant to name foreign actors who were believed to be behind
big hacks. They named North Korea in the Sony hack two years
ago, but declined to name China in the hack of more than 20
million security files from the Office of Personnel Management,
and didn't name Russia when they hacked into the State
Department, White House and Joint Chiefs of Staff emails,
mostly unclassified emails. But in this case, I think they felt
that it was getting too close. And that they had to issue a
warning to the Russians not to mess around on November 8, with
voter rolls or other elements. I think the second important part
of it, Judy, is that by naming Ltd, the President's now got to
announce what he's going to go do about it. And they haven't
said that he could do economic sanctions, he could take covert
action. But there's always a worry in cyber that you get into
an escalation issue where we do something, they do something
back, and it can get much bigger.
Now, this all seems to me to be a smokescreen, and the
smokescreen is for probably the Democratic Party, because they
do fool around with voter registrations of oh, well look
at what happened in Brooklyn, for example, during the Bernie,
Hillary thing, no votes, they all disappeared. Yep. And
Brooklyn is where Bernie get a lot of votes. And no, no, he
didn't get any votes, because there was no votes.
No, it's instead of a smokescreen, I'd say it's a it's
a setup for the smokescreen where if there is some Hanky
Panky going on, that would then you know, then we saw how well
we told you. It could also be Hey, why don't we federalize the
use of these elections when there could be all kinds of
nefarious ideas out there?
Exactly. Sorry. I was having a little battle with a moth.
What is the proper way to battle a moth John,
you got to bash him. But moths are weird. So they're very hard
to do.
I'd like catching them off and letting them free. I don't like
to bash the moth is to the moth. The moth is kind of a goop in a
lot
of powder. I
know. powder. The powder Ellen. Hey, I got one relevant clip
here from Comey. Just regarding this because I'm disappointed in
him. Boy, I thought he was my hero no longer
FBI Director James Comey is revealing investigators have
discovered
my cyber sound in that report. Did you hear that? That was
cool.
Bi Director James Comey is revealing investigators have
discovered more attempts to breach voter registration sites
beyond the previously known hacks in Arizona and
by the way is exactly how it sounds when you're being hacked.
If you hear that sound, you know you're in trouble. Illinois,
there have been a variety of scanning activities, which is a
preamble for potential intrusion activities, as well as some
intended intrusions at voter registration databases beyond
those we knew about in July and August. We are urging the States
just to make sure that they're dead bolts are thrown in there
locks are on
revelation comes as investigators are confident
Russia is behind several recent cyber attacks to influence the
US elections. CNN has learned us Investigators now believe
Guccifer 2.0 is a Russian intelligence operation disguised
as a group of rogue hackers, which targeted the Democratic
National Committee.
Obviously, as you know, we are doing an awful lot of work
through our counterintelligence investigators to understand just
what mischief is Russia up to in connection with our election.
CIA Director John Brennan tells CNN is Erin Burnett. US
officials fear more hacked information will be leaked to
influence the election.
If there are actors or countries that have particular objectives
either to discredit or to help to burnish the credentials of
individual candidates. I am concerned that they are going to
use this time to release that information.
Well, US intelligence officials are hesitant to publicly blame
Russia, top Democratic leaders on Capitol Hill are issuing a
stern warning saying in this statement. We believe that
orders for the Russian intelligence agencies to conduct
such actions could come only from very senior levels of the
Russian government. We call on President Putin to immediately
order a halt to this activity.
All right, I'd like to deconstruct a huge distraction.
Yeah, well, I'd like to debunk something here for a moment and
then you can get to the distraction. When Comey talks
about scanning activity. This is for anyone who any dude named
dudes named Ben know this. I am going to log in right now I'm

wrong here it's rejecting the wrong emails
you want to keep that with well this this sort of thing going on
is apparently really disturbing our pixie girl heritage Oh boy.
Yeah. And she is now is concerned about something else
this is the all this is going on at the same time as you know we
have pussy gate that meanwhile you have this little story they
immunity deal. On this was done on on to guys new show that took
over from the other woman and his heritage is trying to
explain this thing and she's just seems so concerned
about the immune cells about the immunity deals for to top
Hillary Clinton aides. former Clinton Chief of Staff Cheryl
Mills, and ex campaign staffer Heather Samuelson are granted
immunity and the FBI is Clinton email server investigation. And
Sources tell Fox News is part of that deal included the
destruction of laptops. Fox News Chief intelligence
correspondent, Catherine herridge is here. So Catherine,
what's this all about?
Well, a letter was obtained by us today. And it was said by the
Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. That's the committee
that had the hearing last week with FBI Director Comey. And
this letter went to the Attorney General and said, we've now
reviewed these deals. And what we see is that there are two
side agreements, one for Mills, and one per Samuelsson, they are
very important figures, because they're the ones who sorted the
emails and determined what should be kept, and what could
be destroyed. And part of the deal was that the FBI could get
access to these laptops. But mills and Samuelsson got
immunity for obstructing justice and a guarantee from
obstruction. Sorry, pardon me from that. And then also that
after the FBI had searched the laptops, that they would destroy
them.
Why now? These were their laptops, right?
That's correct. Right. So
can you think of a legitimate reason for destroying laptops?
Well, I spoke with two different national security defense
attorneys today once said to me that the thing that puzzles them
so much is that once classified information was on those
computers, a government record, it automatically became
government property. And he didn't understand why they had
to strike a deal when they should have been able to seize
the computer, because it had government property. The other
attorney said to me that when you
when they would have been taken, taken away from them, and they
lost their laptops, they destroyed them. That's right.
Yeah. And this and here's the really puzzling thing. And
you're really onto the leading edge of this. There are
outstanding Freedom of Information Act, lawsuits, and
then outstanding congressional investigations. And what's so
puzzling is why these laptops would be destroyed when these
matters are not resolved.
I must say, Catherine, I sat there that day when James Comey
came out and gave a news conference, which was so damning
in many respects, with Hillary Clinton's behavior, and then
announced that, you know, on baggage housing balance who
decided not to prosecute, I thought, Well, it sounds like it
was on the up and up. The more I hear, the less it seems like,
you know, we can't see this agreement. And I think the
language would be very important. But the more we seem
to know about this investigation, and how it
deviated from standard practice, the less people have faith,
including Republicans on the Hill, but it was done in an
impartial way. And in fact, Chairman Goodlatte says, The
evidence suggests that's correct. He says, The evidence
suggests that there was a predetermined outcome from the
Justice Department that gave these deals, so
it looks horrible. All right. I
just found it interesting that they could have just grabbed the
laptops and nobody bothered to do that. And then they're going
to destroy them. The reason why they destroy him, of course,
because there's something on the bottom, of course, for us, and
something could be erased files. And it could be you know, you
can you can erase files, and of course, you can erase them, I'm
sure they don't have the real scrubbers. But even I've been
told this from a guy who does recovers hard disks. And he says
there's nothing if you really know what you're doing. You want
to take time. And you can pretty much that data is still there,
even when you scrub the disk with it, whatever scrubber
you're using it the data is still there, right? There's this
it's fragmented, and it's it's it's only there in a very mild
way.
That's been that's why Elliot always burns his drives.
And he George drills a hole. Yeah, and then puts them in the
microwave. Yeah, exactly. That's how you go. So that's and that
that will, but that's what they're doing. They're
destroying the laptops, you're probably taking the entire
laptop, because it's got data on there that they that wouldn't be
important. And they're going to throw into one of those
chippers. They have these big giant which is font of a damn
this thing you've ever seen but it's a it's a hard Yes chipper,
throw the thing in and it just obliterates it into a million
little pieces that are just the size of a BB and that'll do the
trick. Yeah, whatever's on there is gone for good. Well,
I know I'll be watching tonight and suspicious a lot of well
that just our Justice Department is in shambles. It's a shambles
to Shamblin
when they started Fast and Furious and they wouldn't give
them the data I mean that was a gun running operations these
guys are like criminals it's like a crime Okay, they're a
criminal enterprise but I was watching the RT and they had the
you know, this one guy is supposed to be a comic is not
very funny, but out of the blue he decided to read from Smedley
Butler's Oh, war as a as a racket war is a racket. And this
I just thought it was funny enough just to read this. He did
it. I mean to clip it and play it.
General Butler said I spent 33 years in the military. In short,
I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I helped to make
Mexico safe for American oil interest in 1914. I helped make
Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys
to collect revenues in, I helped in the raping of a half dozen
Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I
brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar
interest in 1916. I might have given Al Capone a few hints. The
best he could do was operate his racket in three districts. I
operated in three continents.
Yeah, reminds me I got a lot of emails from producers in India
and in Pakistan, both for different reasons saying Oh, you
guys nailed it. That cashmere stuff. It's all about arm sales.
There's like five different deals. The Chinese are selling
the Russians are selling everyone who's trying to sell to
India and Pakistan because it's a racket. It's a racket tell you
it's a racket.
I want to talk about good moneymaker. I'll tell you that.
I
mean, yeah, I guess we're not in it, though. No, not today. I
want to talk about Glenn Beck for a moment. Okay. So you
mentioned and I am I've been following this his. So Glenn
Beck was on Fox and he got kicked out. We're gonna find out
why. But you know, there was all kinds of reasons, I'm sure. And
then he started his own thing called the blaze. And now that
is falling apart. I believe. Do we know that? Yeah. Financially
falling apart. This is what I'm hearing. And I read this.
You know, I had a discussion with somebody the other day, and
we talked about podcasting, and new media and all the rest of
it. And then how important from my perspective, and I think you
would agree with this is that you run a lean operation. In our
case, two people. Yeah.
And half a half a guy sometimes, which is Eric, you know, twice.
Yeah.
I don't want to diminish it. But yeah, yeah, that's what he's the
key works.
When we have numbers, and we have, oops, we have operations
we have, you know, we have network operations. We got
stuff.
We have a lot of network guys helping us. But it's a volunteer
thing. We keep it to a minimum. So you hear people do they start
doing you see it, they start a podcast up, they got they first
started, they need an engineer. Okay, so they can't apparently
do the engineering, which doesn't seem like it's that. I
mean, it's not easy. You have to know what you're doing. You're
the guy, for example, but it's not impossible to do. I mean,
you're with all the clips and all the stuff that we
incorporate. It takes someone who's really talented, but
generally speaking, you could do it. Yeah, you don't need any you
don't need to do post. No. You don't have to do post and all
these other things that people do. They make their lives
miserable. And then they have a big staff, they have the
bookkeeper. And then they have a manager, they have a producer,
they got an editor and they have an engineer, and then there's
people on the podcast itself. This is a formula for not making
any money
right now, just to respond to the chat room. The seed guy
makes his money selling seeds. Okay. He has 60 People working
in his warehouse for his stuff. So that's his revenue model
that we need. Yeah, they have their own pick and pack
operation. I think he probably does. Okay, I'm sure. But back
up now. I was reading Media Matters. That's why I bring this
up. The Beck has a financial problem. And there was this who
wrote this. Let me see it doesn't really matter who wrote
this. Anyway. He was talking about a Huffington Post story
that covers the demise of the Blaze, and they say it's
financial. And here's this guy says the reason that ad revenue
ad revenue disappeared, is because of the incredible work
of my friends at Color of Change. Angelo Caruso don't have
stop at stop back now immediate matters and all of their
supporters. They convinced advertisers to not associate
their brand with Vex race baiting and craziness. This
decoupling of consumer goods advertisers from conservative
media is a really big deal. It's something that I and a legion of
people have been working on for over a decade. The success of my
friends in the hashtag stop rush group alone is absolutely
phenomenal. We found that in general advertisers don't like
to support racist, sexist bigots. There are some
exceptions, especially those whose audiences being called a
sexist bigot, a compliment. I developed the SpotBot method to
defund right wing media. And I did this because while I knew
there were plenty of people who will happily consume racist
sexist claptrap, I also knew that the women and men running
consumer businesses do not want to be publicly associated with
it. Key has been taken down in the very manner that we have
said, we chose our model to avoid it's exactly what is
happening to him. It doesn't surprise me. It doesn't say this
way
to see it this way. The seed man took the right approach. Yeah.
Cuz I think he saw this, this problem coming down, I'm sure he
had to experience it more than a few times, right. At least, you
know, people hate groups coming into and you have to keep not
advertised there as a hate group, as far as I'm concerned,
right? Well, that can advertise with this guy, you know, and I'm
sure he can. I'm sure the
Southern Poverty Law Center is going to be doing this stuff.
It's going to be everywhere. They're gonna they're really
going to work hard on this. And it seems like there's organized
groups. So
did you get the letter I forwarded to you about the guy
who's one of our Hollywood writer producers? I don't think
so. Who wanted a copy of the the lair? Oh, I
sent him I sent him that. Yeah. Okay. Yeah,
here's a guy that was in Hollywood. I forgot what show
he's working on. He's on one of the shows blacklist maybe. And
he says that over the years he has run into these guys that
come you didn't know about the scheme. He just knew that these
guys come in casual the consultants or some I'm not sure
what they how they come in and talk with these guys. But they
have all these story ideas, and they pass them along for free.
And you end up with this running some bullshit about you know,
something that you don't don't even know that is being like a
game being run, I need to know I needed that price, probably for
a meeting. Listen to this.
Let's do this. Exactly. Well, please remember these stories.
Because when people are asking you to support them, there
really is no other way. If you want this type of product, which
we happen to think is an outstanding product.
I'm going to show my son moved by donate to no agenda. Imagine
all the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.
I forgot to tell you one thing. We're having lunch yesterday,
and Tina comes back from the restroom says I just met Tommy
in the bathroom. And you can imagine my surprise. Like what?
Yeah, Tommy? She met Tommy that the the millennial blonde girl.
Yeah, she was really shady. Thank you. Yeah, probably. It's
actually Tina did the classic. Hey, you know, you look just
like that Tommy girl. Yeah, that's what you do. She said,
Yeah, cuz that's me. She's Oh, wow. And Tina is great. What do
you think about Trump? today? Yeah, that's why I'm in New
York. So I'm gonna go in a whole bunch of shows. I'm going to
explain why it's it's a hype. And you know, the Hillary's
really bad and I saw that was interesting. Huh? Yeah, super
cute.
Oh, there she is. She looks good on television. But I'm sure
she's in person. She's dynamite. She's so
cute that Tina didn't tell me the story until we had left.
Alright, we're not here's what we're gonna do. For this
donation thing. We could just say this spreadsheet is screwed
up. All right, Eric is out. And I want to combine we're going to
combine this spreadsheet with the next one. On Thursday. We're
going to do a complete rundown of everybody. And I'll tell you
what's wrong with it. Okay, what happened? Couple things. Well, I
mean, I'm just going to mention that the he didn't have what he
pulled or what he has some automated system now that's
going to have to be back calculated so we can get these
revenue. And here's what shows me that this thing didn't work
out. Because the one of the main donations that I cited was the
9999 Oh, donation. Okay. And when the donations started to
come in the first 10 of them were 9999
Oh, of course for our for our anniversary.
Anniversary. Yeah.
Look at this spreadsheet. They're not on there. Yep,
you're right. That means
there's a bunch of stuff not on here. And I And if we do a read
today, it's going to be a lot of duplication because when you do
you can't get to you get like you know, again, ladies
and gentlemen, you're listening the future of radio, future
radio
So it'd be like, Oh, I mean, it's doable. But I'd rather not
do it. It's yeah. And so I think we also have an another
executive producer, where we will give Tim nonnamous, who's a
very loyal support producer, the full executive producer ship,
and they will put these together next time. And I think your
story about the blaze. Yeah, that's exactly what we've been
saying all along. This can happen to anybody. You have a
orchestrated hate group. And Media Matters is what is part of
that? Yeah. that want to get these messages from data want to
keep them from being said.
Alright, so we're just so what you're saying is we're going to
skip donations. Yeah. Okay. But I do have to do the birthdays.
You have the birthdays? I think we'll probably have to do some
make goods on that and I think that there's a knighthood.
Yeah, but why don't we will do why don't we move it all to
Thursday? Okay, we'll move it all Thursday Sept. The birthdays
except the birthdays. Okay. Well, I do want to remind
everybody that Thursday is going to be a big donation segment get
in now vora.org/and everybody who needs it some karma because
I always gotta give you that
you thought karma
and unless they Howard Alex luck rod turn 33 tomorrow, so it was
a happy birthday to him in advance as long along with
Andrew gusik who says Happy Birthday to his brother Robert
USEK also celebrating tomorrow so we say happy birthday from
you buddies. You get the best podcast in the universe. Man
that's weird.
Having no not having no
donation segment yet as odd. Well, I
can. Oh, no, no,
no, that's good. We'll do it on Thursday. Um
that came in in September. I should I read to you earlier
before the pre show. Oh, yeah, that's
a good one. Read that.
I think it's good later. In the morning. Do you do JC and AC JC
ac jcac i In the morning, my friend. My friends as I sit back
here on the front porch in the early morning with my dog
watching people drive by while gazing at their iPhones. I
wanted to just hand written by the way so I'm stuttering. I
wanted to drop you a note of thanks and send a donation to
chip away towards my knighthood though jobless and down to last
$250 to my name I felt the need to donate and I would like to
ask for a little jobs karma my boss felt the need to tell me
off in a dining room full of people so I walked out not to
make this a sob story. But I hated that job anyway, it's an
open air kitchen sushi bar so your customers are right in
front of you and stood right next to my boss conversations on
all topics arise and when and whenever I would enter it my two
cents worth no agenda style was quickly dubbed the conspiracy
theory guy. And it just snowballed from there. Thank
you, JC D and Adam for all you do. Gaskill.
Yeah, that guy calm, I can always use some karma for that.
You've got karma. It's rough, we get called out like that rough,
rough, rough. Rough. So I think that there's a couple of things
that if we look at this debate that's coming up tonight, and
you know, we everyone was prepared. The Clintons certainly
knew about the WikiLeaks transcripts. You know, Trump
knows what's coming with, obviously all going to be about
he's a rapist? No, he's a rapist? No, you're a rapist or
you're a degi or D he's gonna be back and forth. Very, very sad.
But I think that they were also preparing for a lot of attacks
on Obamacare. Now Obamacare. You just can't stop the even the
mainstream media can't stop the flood of news. In fact, gee,
you'd expect Trump to bring it up that Bill Clinton himself
said it was it was a mess. So they're preparing for it. And
how do they prepare? Well, very funny. They sent out the
architect of Obamacare. Ezekiel Emanuel Zeke, Ezekiel Emanuel. I
think his name is Nikhil
some Yeah. And Gil and they let him do
interviews on Fox. So he did one with Megyn Kelly, I don't have
that clip. But I need to play the one this is the Stuart
varney. Again, he did guy is funny. But he's nothing to leave
on Americans who has nothing to lose an immigrant. So he talks
to Ezekiel Emanuel about Obamacare and he starts off and
he hasn't. I guess what he did is he asked the listeners to
send in you know, how's it working for you? So of course,
it similar stories or what we've heard, you just tell me when
you've had enough.
First off, isn't it this from Chris got kicked off my old
plan, premiums of 400% co payment of 150%? deductibles?
2500 When before it was 250, basically, we've been screwed.
And I'm not on Obamacare. This is what the law has done to me.
Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, architect of Obamacare is with us now.
First of all, I'm very sorry for him, as you know, creating a
piece of legislation that's going to cover 310 million
people, you have problems, and we've discovered problems and
Democrats are proposing solutions to some of those
problems. But we also should not have amnesia, the situation
before the Affordable Care Act, we had 50 million pieces. Is
that what you left up? No. Look, I'm running this is. Is it two
to three? Instead of your punching opponent is here to
Chris, is it? I mean, you are you have you asked me to respond
and I'm responding. Okay. Now. After I put it up on, I'm really
sorry for Chris. No. This one is from Mark, can you hear this? My
monthly premiums in Arizona went from 400 a month for three
people to 850 a month, my deductible went from 4000 to
10,000. The month Obama Care went into effect. Ask him, let's
use her why my family's premiums went up. And Obama said they
would go down. What's your answer, Doctor? Well, I'll tell
you actually, my answer is if actually, if you look at health
care, inflation, we've brought health care inflation down. And
the main way to keep premiums down is to keep healthcare costs
down. And Obamacare has done more to keep healthcare costs
down than anything we've seen in the 50 years previously, since
passage of Medicare and Medicaid, it is very unfortunate
that insurance companies have taken an opportunity to raise
rates very high. But that's a result of health care costs
going up. And we need to keep these total healthcare costs
going down.
I love how it says, well, it's going down, but it's going up
because it's going down you see. Yeah, up is down down is this
guy is crazy. This guy's crazy to come on Fox and he doesn't go
on anything. No leg to stand on. He's a he's a douchebag doesn't
douchebag.
Very good to do that. They're losing billions. They're losing
billions. And they're leaving. Now the insurance companies are
not losing billions. Their stocks are at record highs.
They're actually they're leaving, not they're leaving,
look at note, a letter it's leaving for political reasons.
Because the government didn't want to create a monopoly by
allowing it to merge with Humana increase the subsidies that
would help increase the fines for not having insurance and
restore payments to insurance companies from taxpayers. Those
were the three fixes you put out last night with Megyn Kelly,
because he also like you keep his keeps in a run up to the
knee. But I think those three fixes and by the way, that's
score unquote, subsidies, they are risk corridors. And I should
say that when the Republicans passed Medicare Part D, they had
those kinds of risk corridors anymore, do it follow this.
This is what I was trying to get to last show. And I didn't know
what the person was saying its risk corridors. That would
that's the main thing. And what he's gonna say is, well, it's
all messed up. I don't have to listen to him anymore. It just
goes on he's, he's useless. That way, if you want to have another
minute, if you want.
Okay, I mean, you get the idea.
So he says, Because specifically Marco Rubio, putting the writer
or whatever it was in the bill to deny the full health
corridor. That's why it's failing. And that's why the
insurance companies have have jacked up rates on certain
people, not everybody because overall, it's only only up 15%,
which of course is much lower app, which he's saying on
average, on average, of course, is bullcrap. But whatever he
says. So I went to look into the to these corridors and the idea
of the corridor, it's kind of like a range, a range of
reinsurance that that is in the Affordable Health Care Act. That
although it was curtailed because of indeed Marco Rubio,
just to give you an idea of what this is about, this is the
hidden money of Obamacare. For 2015. I'm reading this right off
of this is the our a and our I summary report for the
Affordable Care Act as as required by the law itself to
report the summary data elements, number of issuers with
2015. benefit year reinsurance eligible individual market plans
nationwide. In other words, The number of companies is includes
the the smaller guys on the exchanges. John? Yeah, who were
eligible? How many do you think? How many because we're only
talking about one or two, how many insurers? Do you think
issuers that were eligible for to get money from the
government? 100 575 owe us a lot, the number who actually
received the benefit 497. Now there's two numbers here, the
Total Request for reinsurance and then the total value that
was paid out, because there weren't you know, they can't pay
everything, thanks to Marco Rubio's, right override the
current total dollar value to be paid by the by US taxpayers
$14.3 billion. Now, they didn't pay all that. But it's still
$7.8 billion that they paid to the insurance companies to help
them where they readjusted This was never really explained very
well. Because we're on the hook three ways. It's not like this
just magical money. It's our money. We're paying we're paying
extra in premiums, and we're paying for the reinsurance.
Yeah,
yeah, this doesn't work the system. It was poorly designed.
It's really sickening. It's poorly designed. Yeah. Okay.
That's one way to say poorly design
and design. They just had to make it Medicare for everyone,
then you're done.
Anyway, so that that was probably planned for the debate.
Otherwise, why would this guy take that flaming hot poker up
the rear end?
It makes no sense. Maybe the guy was probably sent out.
Yeah, of course, he was sent out course to
do I've got a couple that's good. Yeah, no, go ahead.
Go ahead. No, go ahead.
Let's go to Europe for a second. Good. I have a very funny couple
of clips. This is the UK hate speech. New laws, clearly aimed
at the at the UK publications was brought into play by
Brussels.
Yeah, well, this is where we discussed in the previous show.
Number one, Brussels has told the UK to ban its media from
revealing the religious background of terrorists, if
indeed they are Muslim. That's after a European Human Rights
chiefs published a report claiming racist violence is on
the rise in the UK, due to hate speech in newspapers and online.
Just to beat 12 Level Check. You remember I told you the story?
Yeah, I don't remember. But I didn't have this exact report. I
didn't know I had no
clips. I had nothing. This is great. I'm loving it. Just wanna
make sure we remember that we got a terrorist. Yeah. Can't say
most. Falls Muslim. Muslim. No. So after that,
they gave us the announcement. And then they had a little they
had a guy, a guest on a Muslim and a guy who thought this is
horrible, because free speech and all. And then they got into
I didn't clip much of the second part of this because they
started talking over each other. It's such an extreme that it was
they actually had to cut them off and kick them off the show.
But that's later so you can just play a little bit of it.
My colleague, Neil Harvey was joined by political commentators
with rather contrasting views mo Anza. And David Vance.
The fact is that this is a European Union, trying to muzzle
the freedom of the UK of the UK press. And in that regard, it's
an outrage. Why shouldn't the people be allowed to understand
the background of those who perpetrate acts of terrorism?
And why should an exception be made for Muslims?
This report is 83 pages. It runs on to hundreds of paragraphs.
And it is a comprehensive study. It talks about the rise of
intolerance, hate, prejudice, hate attacks following Brexit,
but also the media. The mainstream media in the UK is
absolutely beholden to racist interest, it seems from this
report, I've written an article called The Muslim penalty, which
I'll share after the interview. This is just think that there
are significant developments with this diversity
discrimination in the UK and we have an outside agency who works
currently whether you like it or not, we are applicable to them.
Gentleman, I will ask you a completely different to them.
Really different question. Now,
if I may. Is this not an example of why why British people voted
the majority to get out of the EU because the EU interferes in
the way that its member states run themselves?
Yeah, yeah. Now, the guy said the Muslim guy says, this is the
mainstream media in Britain that will cite you know, a Islamist
terrorist is beholding to racist interests. And that's what why
they do it? That's what he said. Yeah,
I heard him I heard him.
What's a racist interest?
Title? No. It's a precursor to racism I guess.
They're beholden to racist interests. So they're doing it
because of some group or corporation that pays the bills.
Awesome or something that are that are in inherently racist.
Hmm, that's bullshit. I think he just throws that word those
words in there as Oh God, the word racist has just been used.
Yeah. Red alert, Red Alert, racist, racist and racist
interest. That's pretty good, actually. Racist interest. To
name for the show. Talking about racism, they said this is a did
you play the Southwest Iraqi passenger.
In San Francisco, the Council on American Islamic Relations has
filed a complaint against Southwest Airlines with the
Transportation Department calling for an investigation
into whether the airline company is racially profiling Muslim
Americans. This comes after recent University of California
Berkeley graduate Carol Dean Matsumae, was pulled off a
Southwest Airline plane after another passenger she complained
about him speaking in Arabic on his cell phone.
He was saying insula, insula, insula,
something he was the story goes on and on, because it's so
important. But it was the thing that got me his care, is
attacking a Southwest Airline because they believe they're
involved with racial racial, pro race,
racial, racist in interest
in racial profiling, but the guy was tossed off because of a
customer complaint, which happens all the time and they
complain about. I mean, I saw a guy tossed off a white guy.
Yeah. tossed off a plane because he had Tourette's.
Yeah, cuz it happened to me anyway.
Some woman was complaining to the, to the staff and they took
him off the plane. Yeah. So it's customer complaint that resulted
in this. So how is the airline involved in racial profiling?
Well, airlines, and thank you for bringing this up. This is
going to be next. No doubt about it. Airlines have the absolute
right to refuse anyone for any reason, even with just their
spidey sense doesn't feel right. They have a lot of power to deny
customers using their service. And now you're going to see this
is going to be a big deal and you're racially profiling. Yeah,
it's going to it's going to get bad. More of that. You can't
escape anything. We're over socializing ourselves people.
You can't run around not offending someone. It just
doesn't work that way. Shipman we're out of time, really. But I
did have some that fits into this is Bill seasick lead with
Bill C 16. And in Canada and Canada Navia. Have you heard of
Bill C 16? Probably not IBC. This is something that is wanted
here in the United States that we have not done or been able to
do or willing to do. And that is to include gender in our anti
discrimination laws. So this bill has now been introduced in
Canada because Canada is much better than America. We all know
that, as called Bill C 16. Here's a quick setup from
Justice Minister, the Justice Minister about this, I am proud
to say that moments ago, I introduced legislation Bill C
16. An act to amend the Canadian Human Rights Act and criminal
code that would ensure that Canadians will be free to
identify themselves and to express their gender as they
wish while being protected against discrimination and hate.
Because as Canadians we should feel free and safe to be
ourselves. No one should be refused a job disadvantaged in
the workplace, be unable to access services, or be the
target of harassment and violence because of their gender
identity or gender expression. Once passed, this legislation
would update the Canada Human Rights Act to protect persons
from being discriminated against because of their gender identity
or their gender expression. We also intend to update the
criminal code so that those who are targeted because of their
gender identity or gender expression are protected against
hate propaganda and hate crimes.
I don't know why we have hate crimes and hate propaganda is
now a part of this bill. And this bill is not past Yep, but I
think Canada will do this. I
think they seem like oh, yeah, Canada is a kind of Yeah, yeah,
a bunch of people who do weenie Ville Canada,
we need to show does a CBC went on location at the University of
Toronto and Scandinavia? There was a demonstration by
transgender kids. Is that do we? Can we say that transgendered?
Or do I say the transgender have no idea where you can say
anymore I went to?
Well, I'm probably wrong, I'll take the heat by the
transgendered community. They're very angry at the president of
the school, the dean or whatever it is, because he has said he
refused, he's fine. You want to be where you want to be, you
want identify, however you identify, I am not going to
enforce the use of proper pronouns, which, as you notice,
is also not a part of the bill. So he said, I'm just not going
to do that big problem up there. To this end, this girl who
actually I think, is gay men comes up somewhere here. And she
goes to interview the transgender community at the
school who are angry about this. You just got to listen to it,
that we have infected them. We
are here today to call out As you're all aware of Jordan V.
Peterson for his refusal to respect the pronouns of his
transgender students. Jordan V. Peterson has made it clear that
he feels that he has the authority to dictate the gender
identities of his students, which we are here to say that he
does not are Lauren Sutherland is not a is not a member of the
transgender community. They're here with an alt right. media
organization, did you want to do an interview about this? I'm
trying to get all opinions. You don't think
we're supposed to prioritize trans or non binary voices? So
binary? Or you binary? Well, let me prioritize your voice.
I don't think that's fair. As a white sis woman. I'm actually
not sis. But what does that mean, saying that's not fair for
me as a white sis woman, so you're transcending and I'm
binary?
Didn't you just say you're non binary?
You asked me if I was and I said, No, I'm okay. You're.
So you think it's unfair to talk? Because you're cisgender?
No,
I'm supportive of the trans community. And I think that it's
important that we listen to trans and non binary versus
first. Hi, I
think everyone's opinion matters equally. Not in this
life. You're willing, if you're willing to be educated, I'm
willing to teach but if you're not willing to
you aren't necessarily an educator. That's the problem.
Everyone everyone I know.
So we're gonna be trans people. We have a little bit more we
have
standing we have no knowledge on this subject than other people.
Do.
You want to go have a discussion with Peterson?
What he said was that he would not acknowledge our pronouns
that is not the same thing he wants to have a discussion he
said because I gave a reason now if you went and asked him for
more to have a debate on that you think he'd heard
transmasculine person in a dress? Talking to transpose is
never seen whether it's physical or verbal.
Wow, man, this is really bad up there. A trans masculine person
in a dress can never speak with a transfer because it's
dangerous whether it's just talking or or whatever
this is, and this is the this is the Clip of the Day. You get it
back
get it back. Wow. Well then let me give you the last bit here of
this clip.
Oh my God,
I know I know it hurt me too.
Okay, so you're not willing to have a discussion because it
wouldn't be a safe space.
I am not willing to have a discussion about whether or not
I am real and valid
I would just like to say that on as sympathetic as I am to the
trans LGBTQ plus community's goals
i There's a new one LGBT what is the LGBTQ plus who I like that
hold on, I'm gonna write down that's good.
LGBT, that is very good.
Plus Yeah, like that. But then he gets shouted down to have
a discussion about whether or not I am real and valid.
Oh, I would just like to say that on as sympathetic as I am
to the trans LGBTQ plus community's goals i I'm very I'm
also very disappointed just here my race, my own skin color be
attacked.
I said, Did you hear you only interviewing was sis white guys.
That's very inappropriate. And I don't want to be in a position
in which I have to oppose Bill C 16. But simply due to the fact
that I believe it's poorly written. The fact that refusing
to or simply refusing to refer to someone's pronoun could
constitute discrimination simply means the bill needs to be
rewritten for its examined the ralliers the protesters here
keep referring to the fact that they claim that Dr. Peterson has
said the non binding people simply do not exist. In fact,
that is not what he said. He has said that gender, sex at birth,
gender expression and gender identity simply do not vary
independently. That's simply the only claim he's made in his
videos. And he actually has made that very clear. So I highly
encourage everyone to actually give the videos a watch before
protesting many of the organizers actually informed me
that they didn't. And I would also like to say to anyone who
wants to stop any sort of discrimination, not to yell at
people based on their skin color as just happened to me. Thank
you very much. Yeah, so
would you like to give your opinion I mean, we just had
someone scream at us that I'm interviewing too many white
people's too many white men
are way too many sis men. Why is that a problem? I think you're
doing up to the straightest This is white as people you can find.
the straightest sisters whitest person you can find. Oh, man.
Oh, wow. Ah, hey, Canada, you're screwed.
Big time. Oh, man. Yeah, I know. I
think that's a great way to finish the show off. Give
everybody some uplifting clips. That's right. Exactly. For me,
of the world and within the live.
That's right. That's your world. I'm Paul Harvey. Something like
that. All right, we'll be watching the debate, of course,
knows what will happen. And we'll have plenty of time to
process until Thursday. That's kind of kind of interesting.
There's a long time really I don't know if I'll be able to
handle it. Oh, man.
We could do you have an emergency show? Oh, no. Answer.
No
answer.
No. Okay. All right. Well, everybody, thank you very much
